Form of Amended and Restated Executive Officer

Change in Control Agreement

     This Amended and Restated Change in Control Agreement (the “Agreement”) is dated as of
February ___, 2007, by and among Collegiate Pacific Inc. (the “Company”) and ___(the
“Executive”).

     The following recitals are true and constitute the basis for this Agreement:

	 	A.	 	The Company recognizes that the current business environment
makes it difficult to attract and retain highly-qualified executives
unless a certain degree of security can be offered to such executives
against organizational and personnel changes which frequently follow a
Change in Control (as defined below) of a corporation;
	 
	 	B.	 	The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes
the long and valued service the Executive has provided as an officer of
the Company and/or its subsidiaries and considers the Executive to be an
important resource the Company desires to retain;
	 
	 	C.	 	The Company desires to assure fair treatment of its key
executives in the event of a Change in Control and to allow them to make
critical career decisions without undue time pressure and financial
uncertainty, thereby increasing their willingness to remain with the
Company notwithstanding the outcome of a possible Change in Control of
the Company;
	 
	 	D.	 	The Company recognizes its key executives will be involved in
evaluating or negotiating any offers, proposals or other transactions
that could result in a Change in Control of the Company and believes that
it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders that such
key executives be in a position, free from personal financial and
employment consideration, to be able to assess objectively and pursue
aggressively the interests of the Company’s stockholders in making these
evaluations and carrying on such negotiations;
	 
	 	E.	 	The Board believes it is essential to provide the Executive with
compensation arrangements upon a Change in Control that provide the
Executive with individual financial security and which are competitive
with those of other corporations, and in order to accomplish these
objectives, the Board has caused the Company to enter into this
Agreement; and
	 
	 	F.	 	The Company and the Executive are parties to the Change in
Control Agreement, dated June 16, 2006 (the “Original Agreement”) and the
Company and the Executive now wish to

	 	 	 
	Page 1 of 10

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

	 	 	 	amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety by this Agreement.

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

For purposes of this Section 3, whether a person is a “beneficial owner” will be determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”) and “person” includes any syndicate or group that would be deemed to be a person under
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act.

     4. The Company’s Covenants. In order to induce the Executive to remain in the employ
of the Company and in consideration of the Executive’s covenants set forth in Sections 5, 16 and 18
of this Agreement, the Company agrees, under the conditions described herein, to pay the Executive
the Severance Payment (as defined in Section 6 below) and the other payments and benefits described
herein. This Agreement shall not be construed as creating an express or implied contract of
employment, and except as otherwise agreed in writing between the Executive and the Company, the
Executive shall not have any right to be retained in the employ of the Company.

     5. The Executive’s Covenants. The Executive agrees that, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control while the Executive is employed
by the Company, the Executive will remain in the employ of the Company until the earliest of (a)
the date which is 6 months following the date of a Change in Control, (b) the date of termination
by the Executive of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason or (c) the termination by the
Company of the Executive’s employment either with or without Cause, or due to Executive’s death or
disability.

     6. Severance Payment.

     (a) If at any time during the 6 month period prior to a Change in Control, the Company
shall terminate the Executive’s employment without Cause, the Executive’s employment shall
terminate due to his death or Disability, or the Executive shall terminate his employment
for Good Reason, then the Company shall be obligated to pay the Executive in a lump sum in
cash on the next business day following the Change in Control an amount (subject to all
withholding and applicable deductions) equal to 2.99 times the sum of (1) the highest of (A)
the Executive’s then current base salary on an annualized basis as in effect immediately
prior to the Change in Control or (B) the Executive’s highest annualized base salary (with
the Company or any of its subsidiaries) in effect during the 1 year period before such
Change in Control and (2) the actual bonus paid to the Executive by the Company or any of
its subsidiaries for the most recent fiscal year ended prior to the occurrence of the Change
in Control (the “Severance Payment”); provided, however, that the amount of the Severance
Payment shall be subject to being delayed and/or reduced in accordance with either Section 7
or Section 8 below.

     (b) If a Change in Control shall occur while the Executive is employed by the Company
and the Executive shall not have prior to the 6 month anniversary of the Change in Control
been terminated by the Company for Cause or resigned from the employ of the Company without
Good Reason, then the Company shall be obligated to pay the Executive in a lump sum in cash
on the next business day following the 6 month anniversary of the Change in Control an
amount (subject to all withholding and applicable deductions) equal to the Severance Payment
(calculated as described in subsection (a) above); provided, however, that the amount of the
Severance Payment

	 	 	 
	Page 1 of 10

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

shall be subject to being delayed and/or reduced in accordance with either Section 7 or
Section 8 below.

     (c) If, however, on or after the Change in Control and prior to the 6 month anniversary
of the Change in Control either the Company shall terminate the Executive’s employment
without Cause, the Executive’s employment shall terminate due to his death or Disability, or
the Executive shall terminate his employment for Good Reason, the Severance Payment
(calculated as described in subsection (a) above) shall be due and payable by the Company as
of the effective date of the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company and
shall be subject to being delayed and/or reduced in accordance with either Section 7 or
Section 8 below.

     (d) Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no
Severance Payment shall become due and payable by the Company to the Executive under the
terms of this Agreement if at the effective time of any Change in Control the Company is
then in default of any of its payment obligations under the terms of its Principal
Obligations or if any dissolution, assignment for the benefit of creditors or reorganization
under any chapter of Title 11 of the United States Code shall have caused a Change in
Control of the Company.

     7. Reduction of Payments by the Company.

     (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall
be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement or otherwise) (a “Payment”) would be nondeductible by the Company for Federal
income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the Code, then the Severance Payment shall be
reduced in such a manner that its aggregate Present Value shall be equal to the Reduced
Amount. The “Reduced Amount” shall mean an amount expressed in Present Value that maximizes
the aggregate present value of the Severance Payment without causing any Payment to be
nondeductible by the Company because of Section 280G of the Code.

     (b) All determinations required to be made under this Section 7 shall be made by an
independent accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”) and the
Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the
Executive within 15 business days of the payment date or such earlier time as is requested
by the Company. Any such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the
Company and the Executive. The Executive shall determine which and how much of the
Severance Payment shall be eliminated or reduced consistent with the requirements of this
Section 7; provided, that, if the Executive does not make such determination within 10
business days of the receipt of the calculations made by the Accounting Firm, the Company
shall elect which and how much of the Severance Payment shall be eliminated or reduced
consistent with the requirements of this Section 7 and shall notify the Executive promptly
of such election. Within 5 business days thereafter, the Company shall pay to or distribute
to or for the benefit of the Executive such amounts as are then due to the Executive under
this Agreement.

	 	 	 
	Page 6 of 10

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

     (c) As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 280G of the Code at
the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that
the Severance Payment will have been made by the Company which should not have been made (an
“Overpayment”) or that an amount of the Severance Payment which will not have been made by
the Company could have been made (an “Underpayment”), in each case, consistent with the
calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based
upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against the Executive
that the Accounting Firm believes has a high probability of success determines an
Overpayment has been made, any such Overpayment paid or distributed by the Company to or for
the benefit of the Executive shall be repaid by the Executive to the Company together with
interest at the applicable Federal rate provided in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code;
provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by the Executive to the Company if and to
the extent such deemed payment would not either reduce the amount on which the Executive is
subject to tax under Section 1 and Section 4999 of the Code or generate a refund of such
taxes. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based upon controlling precedent or other
substantial authority, determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment
shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive together with
interest at the applicable Federal rate provided in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code.

     8. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended
that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall
be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause this
Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended
to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted
by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of the Executive).

     9. Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the
Executive’s continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans,
programs, policies or practices provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries and for which
the Executive may qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights the
Executive may have under any stock option or other agreements with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries. Amounts that are vested benefits or that the Executive is otherwise entitled to
receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of the Company or any of its subsidiaries at or
subsequent to the termination of Executive’s employment shall be payable in accordance with such
plan, policy, practice or program.

     10. Successor to the Company.

     (a) The Company will require any successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Executive, expressly, absolutely and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place. Any failure of the Company
to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession or assignment
shall be a material breach of this

	 	 	 
	Page 7 of 10

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

Agreement. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore
defined and any successor or assign to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which
executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Section 10 or which otherwise
becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of law. If at
any time during the term of this Agreement the Executive is employed by any corporation a
majority of the voting securities of which is then owned by the Company, “Company” as used
in Section 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 16 and 18 hereof shall in addition include such employer.
In such event, the Company agrees that it shall pay or shall cause such employer to pay any
amounts owed to the Executive pursuant to Section 6 hereof.

     (b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive,
and the Executive’s personal and legal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees. If the Executive should die while
any amounts are still payable to him or her hereunder, all such amounts, unless otherwise
provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the
Executive’s devisee, legatee, or other designee or, if there be no such designee, to the
Executive’s estate.

     11. Notice. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications
provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when
delivered or mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, to
the party entitled to receive such notice at the address shown on the signature page hereof, or to
such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance
herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

     12. Miscellaneous. No provisions of this Agreement may be modified, waived or
discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by the
Executive and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other
party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed
by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at
the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise,
express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party which
are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the choice of law provisions,
statutes, regulations or principles of this or any other jurisdiction.

     13. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which
shall remain in full force and effect.

     14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same
instrument.

     15. Legal Fees and Expenses. The Company shall be obligated to pay all legal fees and
expenses that the Executive may incur as a result of the Company contesting the

	 	 	 
	Page 8 of 10

	 	Amended and Restated Changing in Control Agreement

 

 

validity, enforceability, or the Executive’s interpretation of, or determinations under, this
Agreement.

     16. Confidentiality. As an employee of the Company, the Executive shall have access
to the Company’s confidential information and the Company shall be unconditionally obligated to,
and hereby agrees to, provide Executive with access to new and additional elements of the Company’s
confidential information so long as Executive is employed by the Company. The Executive shall
retain in confidence any and all confidential information known to the Executive concerning the
Company and its businesses so long as such information is not otherwise publicly disclosed.

     17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties hereto relating to the matters encompassed hereby and supersedes any prior oral or written
agreements relating thereto.

     18. Noncompete. If the Executive receives the Severance Payment from the Company, the
Executive agrees that for a period of 1 year immediately following the termination of the
Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason (either by the Company or the Executive)
Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly by
assisting others, engage in, solicit on behalf of, render any services to, guaranty any obligations
of, extend credit to, or have any ownership interest in, or other affiliation in, any business or
other endeavor that Competes with the Company in the United States. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit Executive from owning
not more than 5% of a class of equity securities issued by any Person listed on any national
