entitled to the following (subject to all applicable tax withholdings): 
  

	 	(a)	You will be entitled to receive payment in full promptly after the date of this letter of (i) any accrued but unpaid salary and payment for any accrued vacation, (ii) reimbursement
for any previously unreimbursed Company-related business expenses (subject to presentation of adequate supporting documentation therefor and compliance with other Company policies regarding expense reimbursement), and (iii) the entire balance of
your EVA bank account under the Company’s EVA Incentive Compensation Plan, as of December 31, 2004, after crediting the bonus paid subsequent to December 31, 2004, and accruing interest through June 30, 2005, on the remaining unpaid balance.

  

	 	(b)	During the period beginning on the date of this letter and ending June 30, 2006 (the “Severance Period”), you will be entitled to receive severance pay in the form of

property to the Company. 

  

	 	(d)	It is expressly understood, acknowledged and agreed that all compensation described in paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be subject to the duty to use your reasonable efforts to

the compensation terms related thereto. 

  
 In consideration for the
payments and benefits that will be provided to you under this Agreement, on behalf of yourself and your dependents, heirs, administrators, representatives, trustees, beneficiaries, executors, successors, assigns and any other person or entity, you
hereby unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company and its agents, officers, directors, employees, parents, attorneys, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns, all their respective employee benefit
plans and their administrators, trustees and other fiduciaries (severally and collectively called the “Released Parties”) from any and all manner of claims, demands, debts, rights, disputes, judgments, agreements, losses, costs, damages
and liabilities of any kind whatsoever, in law or in equity, whether known or unknown, that you or any person or entity acting for you now has or hereafter may have against any of the Released Parties for any acts, circumstances, omissions, or
events up to and including the date hereof, it being your intention to effect a general release of all claims. This general release includes, without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, all claims or causes of action arising out of
or relating to your employment or termination of employment with the Company; and any claims arising from any alleged violation by any of the Released Parties of any federal, state or local statutes, ordinances, rules, Executive Orders or
regulations, including, but not limited to, any of the following, as amended: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the
Civil Rights Act of 1991, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and every other source of legal rights and obligations which may be waived and/or released; provided, however that the foregoing release shall not adversely affect your rights
under this letter. 
  
 You acknowledge that you have been given no less than
twenty-one (21) days to consider this letter agreement, or that you have waived such period, before executing it. You further acknowledge that you may revoke this Agreement for a period of seven (7) days from the date you execute it (the

Revocation Period, this agreement shall be null and void in its entirety and all of the Company’s obligations hereunder shall cease immediately. 
  
 Except as directed by the Board of Directors of the Company or as may be required by law, you shall keep confidential and shall not divulge to any other person or entity
at any time any of the business secrets or other confidential information regarding the Company and its affiliates, except to the extent that such information has become public knowledge through no fault of yours. Consistent with the Company’s
policy, you acknowledge that all papers, books and records of every kind and description relating to the business and affairs of the Company and its affiliates, whether or not prepared by you, other than your personal notes, shall remain the sole
and exclusive property of the Company, and you shall return them to the Company promptly after the date of this letter. 
  
 You agree that you will not make, publish or disseminate any derogatory statements or comments, whether orally or in writing, about the Company or its officers or
directors, or take any action that a reasonable person would expect, directly or indirectly, to impair the goodwill, business reputation or good name of any of them. The Company agrees that none of its officers or directors will make, publish, or
disseminate any derogatory statements or comments, whether orally or in writing, about you, or take any action that a reasonable person would expect, directly or indirectly to impair your professional or personal reputation or good name.

 In addition, during the Severance Period, you will, if requested by the Company from time to time, cooperate with the Company and its representatives and answer questions
with regard to the business, management and financial and accounting matters of the Company; provided, that the Company shall take reasonable measures to ensure that such obligations do not materially interfere with any employment opportunities or
responsibilities you may have during such Severance Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company hereby acknowledges that any such cooperation you may provide hereunder will be personal in nature and not deemed to be the rendering of financial
and accounting advice or any other form of consulting services to the Company or any of its representatives. 
  
 This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, other than the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 
  
 This letter agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings with
respect to such subject matter, and may be terminated or amended only by a writing signed by all of the parties to this Agreement.
