EX-10.4

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

CHANGE IN CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated July 21, 2016, is made by
and between Stanley Black & Decker, Inc., a Connecticut corporation (the “Company”), and John F.
Lundgren (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the Company is currently a party to an Amended and Restated Change in Control
Severance Agreement with the Executive, dated December 10, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Board recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the
possibility of a Change in Control exists and that such possibility, and the uncertainty and
questions which it may raise among management and other key employees, may result in the departure
or distraction of management personnel and other key employees to the detriment of the Company and
its shareowners;

WHEREAS, the Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and
encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Company’s management and other
key employees, including the Executive, to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of
potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a Change in Control;

WHEREAS, the parties wish to amend and restate the Prior Agreement to replace the provision
thereunder providing the Executive with a gross-up payment for any golden parachute excise taxes
payable in connection with a Change in Control with a “best net after-tax cutback” provision which
requires any payments and benefits that could constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning
of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) to be
reduced to avoid the golden parachute excise tax, but only if doing so would result in the
Executive receiving a greater amount of payments and benefits in connection with a Change in
Control than would be the case if such payments and benefits were not reduced and the Executive
were instead subject to the golden parachute excise tax; and

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Company and the Executive
have entered into an Executive Retirement Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (“Retirement
Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained,
the Company and the Executive hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. The definitions of capitalized terms used in this Agreement are
provided in the last Section hereof.

2. Term of Agreement. The Term of this Agreement commenced on March 1, 2004 and shall
end on April 30, 2017 (the “End Date”).

3. Company’s Covenants Summarized. 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 Section 4
hereof, the Company agrees, under the conditions described herein, to pay the Executive the
Severance Payments and the other payments and benefits described herein. Except as provided in
Section 10.1 hereof, no Severance Payments shall be payable under this Agreement unless there shall
have been (or, under the terms of the second sentence of Section 6.1 hereof, there shall be deemed
to have been) a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company following a Change in
Control and during the Term. 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.

4. The Executive’s Covenants. The Executive agrees that, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, in the event of a Potential Change in Control during the Term, the
Executive will remain in the employ of the Company until the earliest of (i) a date which is six
(6) months from the date of such Potential Change in Control, (ii) the date of a Change in Control,
(iii) the date of termination by the Executive of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason or by
reason of death, Disability or Retirement, (iv) the termination by the Company of the Executive’s
employment for any reason or (v) the End Date.

5. Compensation Other Than Severance Payments.

5.1 Following a Change in Control and during the Term, during any period that the Executive
fails to perform the Executive’s full-time duties with the Company as a result of incapacity due to
physical or mental illness, the Company shall pay the Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect
at the commencement of any such period, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the
Executive under the terms of any compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by
the Company during such period (other than any disability plan), until the Executive’s employment
is terminated by the Company for Disability.

5.2 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in
Control and during the Term, the Company shall pay, in addition to the payments and benefits due
under Section 4(a) of the Retirement Agreement (with any outstanding equity awards, including the
FY 2016 Equity Awards, to receive the more favorable of the treatment applicable to such awards on
a Change in Control and that otherwise applicable) and subject to the nonduplication of benefits
provisions set forth in Section 12 of this Agreement, the Executive’s Base Salary to the Executive
through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination
or, if higher, the rate in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or
circumstance constituting Good Reason, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the
Executive through the Date of Termination under the terms of the Company’s compensation and benefit
plans, programs or arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if
more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event
or circumstance constituting Good Reason.

5.3 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in
Control and during the Term, the Company shall, in addition to the payments and benefits due under
Section 4(a) of the Retirement Agreement (with any outstanding equity awards, including the FY 2016
Equity Awards, to receive the more favorable of the treatment applicable to such awards on a Change
in Control and that otherwise applicable) and Section 7(b) of the Retirement Agreement in the case
of the Executive’s termination due to death or Disability, and subject to the nonduplication of
benefits provisions set forth in Section 12 of this Agreement, pay to the Executive the Executive’s
post-termination compensation and benefits as such payments become due. Such post-termination
compensation and benefits shall be determined under, and paid in accordance with, the Company’s
retirement, insurance and other compensation or benefit plans, programs and arrangements as in
effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in
effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the first event or circumstance constituting Good
Reason. In addition, if the Executive’s employment continues through April 30, 2017, the Executive
shall be provided with the benefits under Sections 4(b) through 4(f) of the Retirement Agreement.

6. Severance Payments.

6.1 If the Executive incurs a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A)
following a Change in Control and during the Term, other than (A) by the Company for Cause, (B) by
reason of death or Disability, or (C) by the Executive without Good Reason, then the Company shall
pay the Executive the amounts, and provide the Executive the benefits, described in this Section
6.1 (“Severance Payments”) and Section 6.2, in addition to any payments and benefits to which the
Executive is entitled under Section 5 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive shall
be deemed to have incurred a separation from service following a Change in Control by the Company
without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason if (i) the Executive’s employment is terminated
by the Company without Cause prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control
occurs) and such termination was at the request or direction of a Person who has entered into an
agreement with the Company the consummation of which would constitute a Change in Control, (ii) the
Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a
Change in Control occurs) and the circumstance or event which constitutes Good Reason occurs at the
request or direction of such Person, or (iii) the Executive’s employment is terminated by the
Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason and such termination or the circumstance
or event which constitutes Good Reason is otherwise in connection with or in anticipation of a
Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control occurs). For purposes of Sections 5 and 6 of
this Agreement (other than the last sentence of Section 6.2(A)), no payment that would otherwise
be made and no benefit that would otherwise be provided upon a termination of employment will be
made or provided unless and until such termination of employment is also a “separation from
service,” as determined in accordance with Section 409A.

(A) In lieu of any further salary payments to the Executive for periods subsequent to
the Date of Termination and in lieu of the “Cash Severance” otherwise payable to the
Executive pursuant to Section 7(c)(ii)(A) of the Retirement Agreement, the Company shall pay
to the Executive a lump sum severance payment, in cash, equal to three (3) times the sum of
the (i) Executive’s Base Salary or, if higher, the Base Salary in effect immediately prior
to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, and (ii) the
average annual bonus earned by the Executive pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Employment
Agreement or Section 3(b) of the Retirement Agreement and any other annual bonus or
incentive plan maintained by the Company in respect of the three (3) fiscal years ending
immediately prior to the fiscal year in which occurs the Date of Termination or, if higher,
immediately prior to the fiscal year in which the first event or circumstance constituting
Good Reason occurs.

(B) For the thirty-six (36) month period immediately following the Date of Termination,
the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive and his dependents life, disability,
accident and health insurance benefits substantially similar to those provided to the
Executive and his dependents immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more
favorable to the Executive, those provided to the Executive and his dependents immediately
prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, at no
greater after tax cost to the Executive than the after tax cost to the Executive immediately
prior to such date or occurrence; provided, however, that, unless the
Executive consents to a different method, such health insurance benefits shall be provided
through a third-party insurer; provided, further, that if the Executive
requests, such benefits shall be provided in the manner contemplated by Section 4(b) of the
Retirement Agreement. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this
Section 6.1(B) shall be reduced to the extent benefits of the same type are received by or
made available to the Executive from another employer of the Executive during the thirty-six
(36) month period following the Executive’s termination of employment (and any such benefits
received by or made available to the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the
Executive); provided, however, that the Company shall promptly reimburse the
Executive for the excess, if any, of the after tax cost of such benefits to the Executive
over such cost immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the
Executive, the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason.

(C) In addition to the retirement benefits, if any, to which the Executive is entitled
under each DB Pension Plan or any successor plan thereto, the Company shall pay the
Executive a lump sum amount, in cash, equal to the excess of (i) the actuarial equivalent of
the aggregate retirement pension (taking into account any early retirement subsidies
associated therewith and determined as a straight life annuity commencing at the date (but
in no event earlier than the third anniversary of the Date of Termination) as of which the
actuarial equivalent of such annuity is greatest) which the Executive would have accrued
under the terms of all DB Pension Plans (without regard to any amendment to any DB Pension
Plan made subsequent to a Change in Control and on or prior to the Date of Termination,
which amendment adversely affects in any manner the computation of retirement benefits
thereunder), determined as if the Executive were fully vested thereunder and had accumulated
(after the Date of Termination) thirty-six (36) additional months of age and service credit
thereunder and had been credited under each DB Pension Plan during such period with
compensation equal to the Executive’s compensation (as defined in such DB Pension Plan)
during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding Date of Termination or, if higher,
during the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or
circumstance constituting Good Reason, over (ii) the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate
retirement pension (taking into account any early retirement subsidies associated therewith
and determined as a straight life annuity commencing at the date (but in no event earlier
than the Date of Termination) as of which the actuarial equivalent of such annuity is
greatest) which the Executive had accrued pursuant to the provisions of the DB Pension Plans
as of the Date of Termination. For purposes of this Section 6.1(C), “actuarial equivalent”
shall be determined using the same assumptions utilized under The Stanley Works Retirement
Plan or any successor plan immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more
favorable to the Executive, immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or
circumstance constituting Good Reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the calculation of the
lump sum amount payable with respect to the DB Pension Plan that arises pursuant to Section
3(g) (“Pension Make-Whole”) of the Employment Agreement shall be determined based on the
projected increase in the Executive’s Historical Average Compensation (as defined in Exhibit
D to the Employment Agreement). The payments provided in this Section 6.1(C) are in
addition to any payment the Executive would otherwise receive under the applicable DB Plan
and are not intended to offset or reduce any payment under such DB Plan or the Pension Make
Whole.

(D) In addition to the benefits to which the Executive is entitled under the DC Pension
Plan, the Company shall pay the Executive a lump sum amount, in cash, equal to the sum of
(i) the amount that would have been contributed thereto by the Company on the Executive’s
behalf during the thirty-six (36) months immediately following the Date of Termination,
determined (x) as if the Executive made the maximum permissible contributions thereto during
such period, (y) as if the Executive earned compensation during such period at a rate equal
to the Executive’s compensation (as defined in the DC Pension Plan) during the twelve (12)
months immediately preceding the Date of Termination or, if higher, during the twelve (12)
months immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting
Good Reason, and (z) without regard to any amendment to the DC Pension Plan made subsequent
to a Change in Control and on or prior to the Date of Termination, which amendment adversely
affects in any manner the computation of benefits thereunder, and (ii) the excess, if any,
of (x) the Executive’s account balance under the DC Pension Plan as of the Date of
Termination over (y) the portion of such account balance that is nonforfeitable under the
terms of the DC Pension Plan. The payments provided in this Section 6.1(D) are in addition
to any payment the Executive would otherwise receive under the applicable DC Plan and are
not intended to offset or reduce any payment under such DC Plan or the Pension Make-Whole.

(E) If the Executive would have become entitled to benefits under the Company’s
post-retirement health care or life insurance plans, as in effect immediately prior to the
Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior
to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, had the
Executive’s employment terminated at any time during the period of thirty-six (36) months
after the Date of Termination, the Company shall provide such post-retirement health care
and/or life insurance benefits to the Executive and the Executive’s dependents commencing on
the later of (i) the date on which such coverage would have first become available and (ii)
the date on which benefits described in subsection (B) of this Section 6.1 terminate.

(F) The Company shall provide the Executive with third-party outplacement services
suitable to the Executive’s position for the period following the Executive’s Date of
Termination and ending on December 31 of the second calendar year following such Date of
Termination or, if earlier, until the first acceptance by the Executive of an offer of
employment, provided, however, that in no case shall the Company be required
to pay in excess of $50,000 over such period in providing outplacement services and that all
reimbursements hereunder shall be paid to the Executive within thirty (30) calendar days
following the date on which the Executive submits the invoice but no later than December 31
of the third calendar year following the year of the Executive’s Date of Termination.

(G) For the thirty-six (36) month period immediately following the Date of Termination
or until the Executive becomes eligible for substantially similar benefits from a new
employer, whichever occurs earlier, the Company shall continue to provide the Executive with
all perquisites provided by the Company (i) to the Executive pursuant to the Retirement
Agreement (including, without limitation, automobile, financial planning, annual physical
and executive whole life insurance) and the benefits under Sections 4(d), 4(e) and 4(f) of
the Retirement Agreement (as if the Executive had been employed through April 30, 2017), and
(ii) immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive,
immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good
Reason.

6.2 Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, if any of the payments or benefits
received or to be received by the Executive (including any payment or benefits received in
connection with a Change in Control or the Executive’s termination of employment, whether pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, program, arrangement or agreement) (all such
payments and benefits, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in
whole or part), to the Excise Tax, then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total
Payments provided by reason of section 280G of the Code in such other plan, program, arrangement or
agreement, the Company will reduce the Total Payments to the extent necessary so that no portion of
the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax (but in no event to less than zero);
provided, however, that the Total Payments will only be reduced if (i) the net
amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal,
state, municipal and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into
account the phase out, if any, of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such
reduced Total Payments), is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments
without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state, municipal and local
income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive would be
subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out, if
any, of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments).

(B) In the case of a reduction in the Total Payments, the Total Payments will be
reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at
full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if
necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and
benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section
1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined
under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments
that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation
Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last reduced first, will next be
reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full
value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced
first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24)
will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses
(ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata. Any reductions made pursuant to each of clauses
(i)-(v) above will be made in the following manner: first, a pro-rata reduction of cash
payment and payments and benefits due in respect of any equity not subject to section 409A,
and second, a pro-rata reduction of cash payments and payments and benefits due in respect
of any equity subject to section 409A as deferred compensation.

(C) For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will
be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax: (i) no portion of the Total
Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and
in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of section 280G(b) of the
Code will be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments will be taken into
account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) reasonably acceptable to the
Executive and selected by the accounting firm which was, immediately prior to the Change in
Control, the Company’s independent auditor (the “Auditor”), does not constitute a “parachute
payment” within the meaning of section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of
section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code, taking into account the value attributable to the
Executive agreeing to refrain from performing services pursuant to a covenant not to
compete, with such valuation to be determined by an independent valuation firm with
expertise in such matters) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total
Payments will be taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes
reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of section
280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the Base Amount allocable to such reasonable
compensation; and (iii) the value of any noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit
shall be determined by the Auditor in accordance with the principles of sections 280G(d)(3)
and (4) of the Code.

(D) All determinations required by this Section 6.2 (or requested by either the
Executive or the Company in connection with this Section 6.2) will be at the expense of the
Company. The fact that the Executive’s right to payments or benefits may be reduced by
reason of the limitations contained in this Section 6.2 will not of itself limit or
otherwise affect any other rights of the Executive under this Agreement. The Executive and
the Company shall each reasonably cooperate with the other in connection with any
administrative or judicial proceedings concerning the existence or amount of liability for
Excise Tax with respect to the Total Payments.

6.3 Subject to Section 6.4, the payments provided in subsections (A), (C) and (D) of Section
6.1 hereof shall be made not later than the fifth (5th) business day following the Date of
Termination; provided, however, that if the amounts of such payments cannot be
finally determined on or before such day, the Company shall pay to the Executive on such day an
estimate, as determined in good faith by the Company of the minimum amount of such payments to
which the Executive is clearly entitled and shall pay the remainder of such payments (together with
interest on the unpaid remainder (or on all such payments to the extent the Company fails to make
such payments when due) at 120% of the rate provided in Section 1274 (b)(2)(B) of the Code) as soon
as the amount thereof can be determined but in no event later than the thirtieth (30th) calendar
day after the Date of Termination. In the event that the amount of the estimated payments exceeds
the amount subsequently determined to have been due, such excess shall be payable by the Executive
to the Company on the fifth (5th) business day after demand by the Company (together with interest
at 120% of the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code). At the time that payments are
made under this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Executive with a written statement setting
forth the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such calculations
including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice the Company has received from Tax
Counsel, the Auditor or other advisors or consultants (and any such opinions or advice which are in
writing shall be attached to the statement).

6.4 Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Executive is a
“specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A and determined pursuant to procedures
adopted by the Company) at the time of his separation from service and if any portion of the
payments or benefits to be received by the Executive upon separation from service would be
considered deferred compensation under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable
pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following the Executive’s
separation from service (the “Delayed Payments”) and benefits that would otherwise be provided
pursuant to this Agreement (the “Delayed Benefits”) during the six-month period immediately
following the Executive’s separation from service (such period, the “Delay Period”) shall instead
be paid or made available on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month
following the date of the Executive’s separation from service or (ii) Executive’s death (the
applicable date, the “Permissible Payment Date”). The Company shall also reimburse the Executive
for the after-tax cost incurred by the Executive in independently obtaining any Delayed Benefits
(the “Additional Delayed Payments”).

(B) With respect to any amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement under Sections
6.1 (B), (E) and (G), such expenses shall be reimbursed by the Company within thirty (30)
calendar days following the date on which the Company receives the applicable invoice from
the Executive but in no event later than December 31 of the year following the year in which
the Executive incurs the related expenses; provided, that with respect to reimbursement
relating to the Additional Delayed Payments, such reimbursement shall be made on the
Permissible Payment Date. In no event shall the reimbursements or in-kind benefits to be
provided by the Company in one taxable year affect the amount of reimbursements or in-kind
benefits to be provided in any other taxable year, nor shall the Executive’s right to
reimbursement or in-kind benefits be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(C) For purposes of Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive any “installment”
payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of
separate and distinct payments.

6.5 The Company shall deposit the estimated Delayed Payments and estimated Additional Delayed
Payments into an irrevocable grantor trust (for purposes of this Section 6, the “Grantor Trust”)
not later than the fifth business day following the occurrence of a Potential Change in Control.
The Company shall deposit additional amounts into the Grantor Trust on the monthly basis equal to
the interest accrued on the Delayed Payments (and any earlier interest payments) at the United
States 5-year Treasury Rate plus 2%, and the amount held in the Grantor Trust shall be paid to the
Executive (in accordance with the terms of the Grantor Trust) on the Permissible Payment Date.

6.6 The Company also shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the
Executive in disputing in good faith any issue hereunder relating to the termination of the
Executive’s employment or in seeking in good faith to obtain or enforce any benefit or right
provided by this Agreement. Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days (but in any
event no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the Executive incurs the
expenses) after delivery of the Executive’s written requests for payment accompanied with such
evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require, provided that (i) the
amount of such legal fees and expenses that the Company is obligated to pay in any given calendar
year shall not affect the legal fees and expenses that the Company is obligated to pay in any other
calendar year, (ii) the Executive’s right to have the Company pay such legal fees and expenses may
not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit, and (iii) the Executive shall not be entitled
to reimbursement unless he has submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least ten (10)
business days before the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which such
fees and expenses were incurred. The Company shall also pay all legal fees and expenses incurred by
the Executive in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the
application of section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit hereunder. Payment pursuant to
the preceding sentence will be made within fifteen (15) business days after delivery of the
Executive’s written request for payment but in no event later than the end of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which the taxes that are the subject of the audit or proceeding are
remitted to the taxing authority, or where as a result of the audit or proceeding no taxes are
remitted, the end of the calendar year in which the audit is completed or there is a final and
nonappealable settlement or other resolution of the matter.

7. Termination Procedures and Compensation During Dispute.

7.1 Notice of Termination. After a Change in Control and during the Term, any
purported termination of the Executive’s employment (other than by reason of death) shall be
communicated by written Notice of Termination from one party hereto to the other party hereto in
accordance with Section 11 hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall
mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon
and shall 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. Further, a Notice of
Termination for Cause (and the subsequent special Board meeting to determine whether Cause exists)
shall be in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 6(b) of the Retirement Agreement.

7.2 Date of Termination. “Date of Termination,” with respect to any purported
termination of the Executive’s employment after a Change in Control and during the Term, shall mean
(i) if the Executive incurs a separation from service due to Disability, thirty (30) calendar days
after Notice of Termination is given (provided that the Executive shall not have returned to the
full-time performance of the Executive’s duties during such thirty (30) calendar day period), and
(ii) if the Executive incurs a separation from service for any other reason, the date specified in
the Notice of Termination (which, in the case of a termination by the Company, shall be the 30th
calendar day after Notice of Termination is given (except in the case of a termination for Cause,
in which case the Date of Termination will be determined in accordance with Sections 6(b)(ii) and
6(d) of the Retirement Agreement) and, in the case of a termination by the Executive, shall not be
less than fifteen (15) calendar days nor more than sixty (60) calendar days, respectively, from the
date such Notice of Termination is given).

8. No Mitigation. The Company agrees that, if the Executive’s employment with the
Company terminates during the Term, the Executive is not required to seek other employment or to
attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to the Executive by the Company pursuant to
Section 6 hereof. Further, except as specifically provided in Sections 6.1(B) and 6.1(G) hereof, no
payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement shall be reduced by any compensation earned by
the Executive as the 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.

9. Restrictive Covenants.

9.1 The Executive agrees that restrictions on his activities during and after his employment
are necessary to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information and other legitimate interests of
the Company and its Subsidiaries, and that the agreed restrictions set forth below will not deprive
the Executive of the ability to earn a livelihood:

(A) In the event that, during the twenty-four (24) months following termination of
employment during the Term by the Executive for Good Reason or by the Company other than for
Cause, death, or Disability (the “Non-Competition Period”), the Executive shall, without the
written consent of the Board, directly or indirectly, as employee, agent, consultant,
stockholder, director, manager, co-partner or in any other individual or representative
capacity, own, operate, manage, control, engage in, invest in or participate in any manner
in, act as consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any
person, firm, corporation or entity), or otherwise assist any person or entity (other than
the Company) that engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture
or enterprise that directly or indirectly engages or proposes to engage in any Competitive
Business, then the Company’s obligations to make any further payments or provide any further
benefits under Section 6.1 shall immediately terminate.

(B) The Executive agrees that during the Term and thereafter, he will remain bound by
Sections 10(a) and 10(c) of the Retirement Agreement.

(C) Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that the Company shall not be
obligated to make any of the payments or to provide for any of the benefits specified in
Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof, and shall be entitled to recoup the pro rata portion of any
such payments and of the value of any such benefits previously provided to the Executive in
the event of a material breach by the Executive of the provisions of this Section 9 (such
pro ration to be determined as a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from
such breach to the second anniversary of the date on which the Executive terminates
employment and the denominator of which is 730), which breach continues without having been
cured within fifteen (15) calendar days after written notice to the Executive specifying the

10. Successors; Binding Agreement.

10.1 In addition to any obligations imposed by law upon any successor to the Company, the
Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation
or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to expressly
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 had taken place.

10.2 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 shall die while any amount would still be payable to the
Executive hereunder (other than amounts which, by their terms, terminate upon the death of the
Executive) 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.

11. Notices. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other communications
provided for in the 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,
addressed, if to the Executive, to the address on file with the Company and, if to the Company, to
the address set forth below, or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the
other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notice of change of address shall be effective
only upon actual receipt:

Attention: General Counsel

12. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or
discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the
Executive and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board. No waiver by either
party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or of any lack of 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. This Agreement shall supersede any agreement setting forth the terms and
conditions of the Executive’s employment with the Company (including, without limitation, the
Retirement Agreement) only in the event that the Executive’s employment with the Company is
terminated during the Term on or following a Change in Control (or deemed to have been so
terminated), by the Company other than for Cause, death or Disability or by the Executive for Good
Reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall not supersede Sections 3(b), 3(c),
3(d), 3(e), 3(g), 3(h) or 4(a)-4(f) of the Retirement Agreement, which provisions shall apply as if
set forth herein (it being agreed that the Executive shall be treated as having remained employed
until April 30, 2017 if his employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause, death or
Disability or by the Executive for Good Reason in connection with a Change in Control). To the
extent that this Agreement does not supersede the Retirement Agreement but provides payments or
benefits in excess of those to which the Executive is entitled under the Retirement Agreement, the
Executive shall be entitled to (i) such excess payments and benefits and (ii) payments and benefits
due pursuant to the Retirement Agreement. Further, to the extent this Agreement does not supersede
the Retirement Agreement or any other agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the
Executive’s employment with the Company, it shall not result in any duplication of benefits to the
Executive. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut, without regard to its conflicts of law
principles. All references to sections of the Exchange Act or the Code shall be deemed also to
refer to any successor provisions to such sections. Any payments provided for hereunder shall be
paid net of any applicable withholding required under federal, state or local law and any
additional withholding to which the Executive has agreed. The obligations of the Company and the
Executive under this Agreement which by their nature may require either partial or total
performance after the expiration of the Term (including, without limitation, those under Sections 6
and 7 hereof) shall survive such expiration. To the extent applicable, it is intended that the
compensation arrangements under this Agreement be in full compliance with Section 409A. This
Agreement shall be construed in a manner to give effect to such intention.

13. Validity. 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.

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

15. Settlement of Disputes. All claims by the Executive for benefits under this
Agreement shall be directed to and determined by the Board and shall be in writing. Any denial by
the Board 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 shall afford a reasonable opportunity to the Executive for a
review of the decision denying a claim and shall further allow the Executive to appeal to the Board
a decision of the Board within sixty (60) calendar days after notification by the Board that the
Executive’s claim has been denied. Notwithstanding the above, in the event of any dispute, any
decision by the Board hereunder shall be subject to a de novo review by a court of competent
jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive shall be
entitled to seek specific performance of the Executive’s right to be paid until the Date of
Termination during the pendency of any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with
this Agreement.

 Authorization.  The Shareholder has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and this Agreement constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (b) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.
