 Exhibit 10.2 
 AMENDMENT #2 TO THE KRONOS INCORPORATED 
 2002 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
 The Kronos Incorporated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “2002 Plan”), is hereby amended as follows (capitalized terms
used herein and not defined herein shall have the respective meaning ascribed to such terms in the 2002 Plan): 
  

	 	1.	Section 8(a) of the 2002 Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof: 

 “(a) General. The Board may grant Awards entitling recipients to acquire shares of Common Stock (“Restricted
Stock”), subject to the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price from the recipient in the event that conditions specified by the Board in the applicable Award are not
satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Board for such Award. Instead of granting Awards for Restricted Stock, the Board may grant Awards entitling the recipient to receive shares of Common Stock
or an amount in cash equal to the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock, as determined by the Board, to be delivered at the time such shares of Common Stock vest (“Restricted Stock Units”). (Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock
Units are referred to herein as a “Restricted Stock Award”).” 
  

	 	2.	Section 11(g) of the 2002 Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof: 

 “(g) Acceleration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5(d), 7(b)(2), 8(c) and 9, the Board may at any time provide
that any Award shall become immediately exercisable in full or in part, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be. 
  

	 	3.	Section 13(c)(3)(b) of the 2002 Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is inserted in lieu thereof:

constitutes a Reorganization Event): 
 (i) except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument
evidencing any Restricted Stock Award or any other agreement between a Participant and the Company, the vesting schedule of all Restricted Stock Awards shall be accelerated in part so that one-half of the number of shares that would otherwise have
first become free from conditions or restrictions on any date after the date of the Change in Control Event shall immediately become free from conditions or restrictions. Subject to the following sentence, the remaining one-half of such number of
shares shall continue to become free from conditions or 

 
restrictions in accordance with the original schedule set forth in such Restricted Stock Award, with one-half of the number of shares that would otherwise
have become free from conditions or restrictions on each subsequent vesting date in accordance with the original schedule becoming free from conditions or restrictions on each subsequent vesting date. In addition, each such Restricted Stock Award
shall immediately become free from all conditions or restrictions if, on or prior to the first anniversary of the date of the consummation of the Change in Control Event, the Participant’s employment with the Company or the acquiring or
succeeding corporation is terminated for Good Reason by the Participant or is terminated without Cause by the Company or the acquiring or succeeding corporation; and 
 (ii) under the terms of which holders of Common Stock will receive upon consummation thereof the Acquisition Price, except to the extent
specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument evidencing any Restricted Stock Unit or any other agreement between a Participant and the Company, the Board may provide that all outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall terminate upon
consummation of such Change in Control Event and that each Participant shall receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment equal to (i) the product of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Restricted Stock Unit prior to
the consummation of the Change in Control Event and (B) the Acquisition Price, plus the value of any deemed dividend equivalents accrued but unpaid with respect to such Restricted Stock Units (less any amounts required to be withheld under any

Award.” 
 Except as aforesaid, the 2002 Plan shall remain in full force and effect.

 Exhibit 10.4 
 KRONOS INCORPORATED 
 Senior Executive Retention Agreement 
 THIS SENIOR EXECUTIVE RETENTION AGREEMENT, by and between Kronos Incorporated, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”), and
[            ] (the “Executive”) was originally effective as of [            ] and is amended and
restated effective                     , 2007 (the “Effective Date”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly-held corporations, the possibility of a change in control of the Company exists

 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage
the continued employment and dedication of the Company’s key personnel without distraction from the possibility of a change in control of the Company and related events and circumstances, and 
 WHEREAS, the Board has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company that the Agreement be amended and restated to clarify certain
provisions and to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 
 NOW, THEREFORE,
as an inducement for and in consideration of the Executive remaining in its employ, the Company agrees that the Executive shall receive the severance benefits set forth in this Agreement in the event the Executive’s employment with the Company
is terminated under the circumstances described below subsequent to a Change in Control (as defined in Section 1.1). 
  

	 	1.	Key Definitions. 

 As used herein,
the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: 
 1.1 “Change in Control” means an event
or occurrence set forth in any one or more of subsections (a) through (d) below (including an event or occurrence that constitutes a Change in Control under one of such subsections but is specifically exempted from another such
subsection): 
 (a) the acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or
14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership of any capital stock of the Company if, after such acquisition, such Person beneficially owns (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 

 
promulgated under the Exchange Act) 20% or more of either (i) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company
Common Stock”) or (ii) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however,
that for purposes of this subsection (a), the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company (excluding an acquisition pursuant to the exercise, conversion or exchange of any
security exercisable for, convertible into or exchangeable for common stock or voting securities of the Company, unless the Person exercising, converting or exchanging such security acquired such security directly from the Company or an underwriter
or agent of the Company), (ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, or (iv) any
acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (i) and (ii) of subsection (c) of this Section 1.1; or 
 (b) such time as the Continuing Directors (as defined below) do not constitute a majority of the Board (or, if applicable, the Board of
Directors of a successor corporation to the Company), where the term “Continuing Director” means at any date a member of the Board (i) who was a member of the Board on the date of the execution of this Agreement or (ii) who was
nominated or elected subsequent to such date by at least a majority of the directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election or whose election to the Board was recommended or endorsed by at least a majority of the
directors who were Continuing Directors at the time of such nomination or election; provided, however, that there shall be excluded from this clause (ii) any individual whose initial assumption of office occurred as a result of an
actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents, by or on behalf of a person other than the Board; or 
 (c) the consummation of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or statutory share exchange involving the Company or a
sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in one or a series of transactions (a “Business Combination”), unless, immediately following such Business Combination, each of the following two conditions
is satisfied: (i) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination
beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, respectively, of the
resulting or acquiring corporation in such Business Combination (which shall include, without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or
through one or more subsidiaries) (such resulting or acquiring corporation is referred to herein as the “Acquiring Corporation”) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of
the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, respectively; and (ii) no Person (excluding the Acquiring Corporation or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) maintained or sponsored by the Company or by
the Acquiring Corporation) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Acquiring Corporation, or of the 

 
combined voting power of the then-outstanding securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (except to the extent
that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination); or 
 (d) approval by the stockholders of the Company of a
complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 
 1.2 “Change in Control Date” means the first date
during the Term (as defined in Section 2) on which a Change in Control occurs. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if (a) a Change in Control occurs, (b) the Executive’s employment with the Company is
terminated prior to the date on which the Change in Control occurs, and (c) it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such termination of employment (i) was at the request of a third party who has taken steps reasonably
calculated to effect a Change in Control or (ii) otherwise arose in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control, then for all purposes of this Agreement the “Change in Control Date” shall mean the date immediately prior
to the date of such termination of employment. 
 1.3 “Cause” means: 
 (a) the Executive’s willful and continued failure to substantially perform his reasonable assigned duties as an officer of the
Company (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness or any failure after the Executive gives notice of termination for Good Reason), which failure is not cured within 90 days after a written demand for
substantial performance is received by the Executive from the Board of Directors of the Company which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board of Directors believes the Executive has not substantially performed the Executive’s
duties; or 
 (b) the Executive’s willful engagement in illegal conduct or gross misconduct which is materially and
demonstrably injurious to the Company. 
 For purposes of this Section 1.3, no act or failure to act by the Executive
shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of the Company. 
 1.4 “Good Reason” means the occurrence, without the Executive’s written consent, of any of the events or
circumstances set forth in clauses (a) through (g) below. Notwithstanding the occurrence of any such event or circumstance, such occurrence shall not be deemed to constitute Good Reason if, prior to the Date of Termination specified in the
Notice of Termination (each as defined in Section 3.2(a)) given by the Executive in respect thereof, such event or circumstance has been fully corrected and the Executive has been reasonably compensated for any losses or damages resulting
therefrom (provided that such right of correction by the Company shall only apply to the first Notice of Termination for Good Reason given by the Executive). 
 (a) the assignment to the Executive of duties inconsistent in any material respect with the Executive’s position (including status,
offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the Change in Control Date, (ii) the date of the execution by the Company of the initial 

 
written agreement or instrument providing for the Change in Control or (iii) the date of the adoption by the Board of Directors of a resolution
providing for the Change in Control (with the earliest to occur of such dates referred to herein as the “Measurement Date”), or any other action or omission by the Company which results in a material diminution in such position, authority
or responsibilities; 
 (b) a reduction in the Executive’s annual base salary as in effect on the Measurement Date or as
the same was or may be increased thereafter from time to time; 
 (c) the failure by the Company to (i) continue in
effect any material compensation or benefit plan or program (including without limitation any life insurance, medical, health and accident or disability plan and any vacation or automobile program or policy) (a “Benefit Plan”) in which the
Executive participates or which is applicable to the Executive immediately prior to the Measurement Date, unless an equitable arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative plan) has been made with respect to such plan or program,
(ii) continue the Executive’s participation therein (or in such substitute or alternative plan) on a basis not materially less favorable, both in terms of the amount of benefits provided and the level of the Executive’s participation
relative to other participants, than the basis existing immediately prior to the Measurement Date or (iii) award cash bonuses to the Executive in amounts and in a manner substantially consistent with past practice in light of the Company’s
financial performance; 
 (d) a change by the Company in the location at which the Executive performs his principal duties
for the Company to a new location that is both (i) outside a radius of 35 miles from the Executive’s principal residence immediately prior to the Measurement Date and (ii) more than 35 miles from the location at which the Executive
performed his principal duties for the Company immediately prior to the Measurement Date; or a requirement by the Company that the Executive travel on Company business to a substantially greater extent than required immediately prior to the
Measurement Date; 
 (e) the failure of the Company to obtain the agreement from any successor to the Company to assume and
agree to perform this Agreement, as required by Section 6.1; 
 (f) a purported termination of the Executive’s
employment which is not effected pursuant to a Notice of Termination satisfying the requirements of Section 3.2(a); or 
 (g) any failure of the Company to pay or provide to the Executive any portion of the Executive’s compensation or benefits due under any Benefit Plan within seven days of the date such compensation or benefits are due, or any material
breach by the Company of this Agreement or any employment agreement with the Executive. 
 (h) In addition, the termination
of employment by the Executive for any reason or no reason during the 30-day period beginning on the first anniversary of the Change in Control Date shall be deemed to be termination for Good Reason for all purposes under this Agreement. 

 

 The Executive’s right to terminate his employment for Good Reason shall be made in
good faith and shall not be affected by his incapacity due to physical or mental illness. 
 1.5 “Disability”
means the Executive’s absence from the full-time performance of the Executive’s duties with the Company for 180 consecutive calendar days as a result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and
permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative. 
  

	 	2.	Term of Agreement. This Agreement, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder, shall take effect upon the Effective Date and shall expire upon the first to occur
of (a) the expiration of the Term (as defined below) if a Change in Control has not occurred during the Term, (b) the date 36 months after the Change in Control Date, if the Executive is still employed by the Company as of such later date,
or (c) the fulfillment by the Company of all of its obligations under Sections 4 and 5.2 and 5.3 if the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates within 36 months following the Change in Control Date. “Term” shall
mean the period commencing as of the Effective Date and continuing in effect through October 4, 2007; provided, however, that commencing on October 5, 2007 and each October 5th thereafter, the Term shall be automatically
extended for one additional year unless, not later than 90 days prior to the scheduled expiration of the Term (or any extension thereof), the Company shall have given the Executive written notice that the Term will not be extended.

  

	 	3.	Employment Status; Termination Following Change in Control. 

 3.1 Not an Employment Contract. The Executive acknowledges that this Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain the Executive as an employee and
that this Agreement does not prevent the Executive from terminating employment at any time. If the Executive’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason and subsequently a Change in Control shall occur, the Executive shall not be
entitled to any benefits hereunder except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 1.2. 
 3.2 Termination of
Employment. 
 (a) If the Change in Control Date occurs during the Term, any termination of the Executive’s
employment by the Company or by the Executive within 36 months following the Change in Control Date (other than due to the death of the Executive) shall be communicated by a written notice to the other party hereto (the “Notice of
Termination”), given in accordance with Section 7. Any Notice of Termination shall: (i) indicate the specific termination provision (if any) of this Agreement relied upon by the party giving such notice, (ii) to the extent
applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) specify the Date of Termination (as defined below).
The effective date of an employment termination (the “Date of Termination”) shall be the close of business on the date specified in the Notice of Termination (which date may not be less than 15 days or more than 120 days after the date of
delivery of such Notice of Termination), in the case of a termination other than one due to the Executive’s death, or the date of the Executive’s death, as the case may 

 
be. In the event the Company fails to satisfy the requirements of Section 3.2(a) regarding a Notice of Termination, the purported termination of the
Executive’s employment pursuant to such Notice of Termination shall not be effective for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (b) The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company,
respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting any such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. 
 (c) Any Notice of Termination for Cause given by the Company must be given within 90 days of the occurrence of the event(s) or
circumstance(s) which constitute(s) Cause. Prior to any Notice of Termination for Cause being given (and prior to any termination for Cause being effective), the Executive shall be entitled to a hearing before the Board of Directors of the Company
at which he may, at his election, be represented by counsel and at which he shall have a reasonable opportunity to be heard. Such hearing shall be held on not less than 15 days prior written notice to the Executive stating the Board of
Directors’ intention to terminate the Executive for Cause and stating in detail the particular event(s) or circumstance(s) which the Board of Directors believes constitutes Cause for termination. Any such Notice of Termination for Cause must be
approved by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members of the Board of Directors. 
 (d) Any Notice of Termination for
Good Reason given by the Executive must be given within 90 days of the occurrence of the event(s) or circumstance(s) which constitute(s) Good Reason. 
  

	 	4.	Benefits to Executive.

employer and is eligible to receive a particular type of benefits (e.g., health insurance benefits) from such employer on terms at least as favorable to the Executive and his family as those being provided by the Company, then the Company shall no
longer be required to provide those particular benefits to the Executive and his family; 
 (iii) to the extent not
previously paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive following the Executive’s termination of

thereon) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not previously paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (A), (B), and (C) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”); and 
 (2) the amount equal to (A) two multiplied by (B) the sum of (x) the Executive’s highest annual base salary for any

otherwise be entitled to receive to the extent necessary to eliminate any “excess parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code) for the Executive. For purposes of this Section 4.2, the Contingent Compensation

(determined in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-31 and Q/A-32 or any successor provisions) of the amount of any
additional taxes that would be incurred by the Executive if the Eliminated Payments (determined without regard to this sentence) were paid to him (including, state and federal income taxes on the Eliminated Payments, the excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code payable with respect to all of the Contingent Compensation Payments in excess of the Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), and any withholding taxes). The override
of such reduction in Contingent Compensation Payments pursuant to this Section 4.2(b) shall be referred to as a “Section 4.2(b) Override.” For purpose of this paragraph, if any federal or state income taxes would be attributable
to the receipt of any Eliminated Payment, the amount of such taxes shall be computed by multiplying the amount of the Eliminated Payment by the maximum combined federal and state income tax rate provided by law. 
 (c) For purposes of this Section 4.2 the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: 
 (i) “Change in Ownership or Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company determined in accordance with Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code. 
 (ii) “Contingent Compensation Payment” shall mean any payment (or benefit) in the nature of compensation that is made or made available (under this Agreement or otherwise) to a “disqualified individual” (as defined in
Section 280G(c) of the Code) and that is contingent (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) on a Change in Ownership or Control of the Company. 
 (d) Any payments or other benefits otherwise due to the Executive following a Change in Ownership or Control that could reasonably be
characterized (as determined by the Company) as Contingent Compensation Payments (the “Potential Payments”) shall not be made until the dates provided for in this Section 4.2(d). Within 30 days after each date on which the Executive
first becomes entitled to receive (whether or not then due) a Contingent Compensation Payment relating to such Change in Ownership or Control, the Company shall determine and notify the Executive (with reasonable detail regarding the basis for its
determinations) (i) which Potential Payments constitute Contingent Compensation Payments, (ii) the Eliminated Amount and (iii) whether the Section 4.2(b) Override is applicable. Within 30 days after delivery of such notice to the
Executive, the Executive shall deliver a response to the Company (the “Executive Response”) stating either (A) that he agrees with the Company’s determination pursuant to the preceding sentence, in which case he shall indicate,
if applicable, which Contingent Compensation Payments, or portions thereof (the aggregate amount of which, determined in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-30 or any successor provision, shall be equal to the
Eliminated Amount), shall be treated as Eliminated Payments or (B) that he disagrees with such determination, in which case he shall set forth (i) which Potential Payments should be characterized as Contingent Compensation Payments,
(ii) the Eliminated Amount, (iii) whether the Section 4.2(b) Override is applicable, and (iv) which (if any) Contingent Compensation Payments, or portions thereof (the aggregate amount of which, determined in accordance with
Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-30 or any successor provision, shall be equal to the Eliminated Amount, if any), shall be treated as 

 
Eliminated Payments. In the event that the Executive fails to deliver an Executive Response on or before the required date, the Company’s initial
determination shall be final and the Contingent Compensation Payments that shall be treated as Eliminated Payments shall be determined by the Company in its absolute discretion. If the Executive states in the Executive Response that he agrees with
the Company’s determination, the Company shall make the Potential Payments to the Executive within three business days following delivery to the Company of the Executive Response (except for any Potential Payments which are not due to be made
until after such date, which Potential Payments shall be made on the date on which they are due). If the Executive states in the Executive Response that he disagrees with the Company’s determination, then, for a period of 60 days following
delivery of the Executive Response, the Executive and the Company shall use good faith efforts to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within such 60-day period, such dispute shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Boston,
Massachusetts, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. The Company shall, within three business days following
delivery to the Company of the Executive Response, make to the Executive those Potential Payments as to which there is no dispute between the Company and the Executive regarding whether they should be made (except for any such Potential Payments
which are not due to be made until after such date, which Potential Payments shall be made on the date on which they are due). The balance of the Potential Payments shall be made within three business days following the resolution of such dispute.
Subject to the limitations contained in Sections 4.2(a) and (b) hereof, the amount of any payments to be made to the Executive following the resolution of such dispute shall be increased by amount of the accrued interest thereon computed at the
prime rate announced from time to time by The Wall Street Journal (or if unavailable, by such other nationally recognized financial publication published daily) compounded monthly from the date that such payments originally were due. 
 (f) The provisions of this Section 4.2 are intended to apply to any and all payments or benefits available to the Executive under
this Agreement or any other agreement or plan of the Company under which the Executive receives Contingent Compensation Payments. 
 4.3 Mitigation. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefits provided for in this Section 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise. Further, except as provided in
Section 4.1(a)(ii) or (b)(ii), the amount of any payment or benefits provided for in this Section 4 shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer, by retirement benefits, by
offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the Company or otherwise. 
 4.4 Outplacement
Services. In the event the Executive is terminated by the Company (other than for Cause, Disability or Death), or the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason, within 36 months following the Change in Control Date, the Company shall
provide outplacement services through one or more outside firms of the Executive’s choosing up to an aggregate of $12,000, with such services to extend until the earlier of (i) 12 months following the termination of Executive’s
employment or (ii) the date the Executive secures full time employment. 
  

	 	5.	Disputes. 

  

 5.1 Settlement of Disputes; Arbitration. All claims by the Executive for benefits
under this Agreement shall be directed to and determined by the Board of Directors of the Company and shall be in writing. Any denial by the Board of Directors of a claim for benefits under this Agreement shall be delivered to the Executive in
writing and shall set forth the specific reasons for the denial and the specific provisions of this Agreement relied upon. The Board of Directors shall afford a reasonable opportunity to the Executive for a review of the decision denying a claim.
Any further dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Boston, Massachusetts, in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. Judgment
may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. 
 5.2 Expenses. The Company agrees to
pay as incurred, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal, accounting and other fees and expenses which the Executive may reasonably incur as a result of any claim or contest (regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive or
others regarding the validity or enforceability of, or liability under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the Executive regarding the amount of any payment or benefits
pursuant to this Agreement), plus in each case interest on any delayed payment at the applicable Federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code. 
 5.3 Compensation During a Dispute. If the Change in Control Date occurs during the Term and the Executive’s employment with
the Company terminates within 36 months following the Change in Control Date, and the right of the Executive to receive benefits under Section 4 (or the amount or nature of the benefits to which he is entitled to receive) are the subject of a
dispute between the Company and the Executive, the Company shall continue (a) to pay to the Executive his base salary in effect as of the Measurement Date and (b) to provide benefits to the Executive and the Executive’s family at
least equal to those which would have been provided to them, if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated, in accordance with the applicable Benefit Plans in effect on the Measurement Date, until such dispute is resolved either by
mutual written agreement of the parties or by an arbitrator’s award pursuant to Section 5.1. Following the resolution of such dispute, the sum of the payments made to the Executive under clause (a) of this Section 5.3 shall be
deducted from any cash payment which the Executive is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 4; and if such sum exceeds the amount of the cash payment which the Executive is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 4, the excess of such
sum over the amount of such payment shall be repaid (without interest) by the Executive to the Company within 60 days of the resolution of such dispute. 
  

	 	6.	Successors. 

 6.1 Successor to
Company. The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company expressly to assume and agree to perform this
Agreement to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain an assumption of this Agreement at or prior to the effectiveness of any succession shall be a
breach of this Agreement and shall constitute Good Reason if the Executive elects to terminate employment, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes 

 
effective shall be deemed the Date of Termination. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as defined above and any successor
to its business or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise. 
 6.2 Successor to Executive. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.
If the Executive should die while any amount would still be payable to the Executive or his family hereunder if the Executive had continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement to the executors, personal representatives or administrators of the Executive’s estate. 
  

	 	7.	Notice. All notices, instructions and other communications given hereunder or in connection herewith shall be in writing. Any such notice, instruction or communication shall
be sent either (i) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (ii) prepaid via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service, in each case addressed to the Company, at Kronos Incorporated, 297
Billerica Road. Chelmsford, Massachusetts, 01824 (Attn: General Counsel) and to the Executive at
                                        
                         (or to such other address as either the Company or the Executive may have furnished to the other in
writing in accordance herewith). Any such notice, instruction or communication shall be deemed to have been delivered five business days after it is sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or one business day
after it is sent via a reputable nationwide overnight courier service. Either party may give any notice, instruction or other communication hereunder using any other means, but no such notice, instruction or other communication shall be deemed to
have been duly delivered unless and until it actually is received by the party for whom it is intended. 

  

	 	8.	Miscellaneous. 

 8.1 Employment
by Subsidiary. For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment with the Company shall not be deemed to have terminated solely as a result of the Executive continuing to be employed by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 8.2 Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision 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. 
 8.3
Injunctive Relief. The Company and the Executive agree that any breach of this Agreement by the Company is likely to cause the Executive substantial and irrevocable damage and therefore, in the event of any such breach, in addition to such
other remedies which may be available, the Executive shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive relief. 
 8.4 Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to conflicts of law principles. 

 

 8.5 Waivers. No waiver by the Executive at any time of any breach of, or
compliance with, any provision of this Agreement to be performed by the Company shall be deemed a waiver of that or any other provision at any subsequent time. 
 8.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but both of which
together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 8.7 Tax Withholding. Any payments provided for hereunder
shall be paid net of any applicable tax withholding required under federal, state or local law. 
 8.8 Entire
Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or
warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein; and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein is
hereby terminated and cancelled. 
 8.9 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written
instrument executed by both the Company and the Executive. 
 8.10 409A Compliance. It is intended that the terms of
this Agreement and the benefits provided hereunder comply with Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“409A”) including transition guidance set forth in Notice 2006-79 permitting
changes in the time and form of payment of such benefits. The Agreement and all related documents shall be construed in accordance with this intent. To the extent any amount subject to 409A is to be paid or provided to the Executive in connection
with a separation from service at a time when the Executive is considered a specified employee within the meaning of 409A then such payment shall not be made until the date that is six months and one day following after such separation from service.
