(“AltaGas”), WGL Holdings, Inc. (“WGL”) and Wrangler Inc.   have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January 25, 2017 (the “Merger   Agreement”). We greatly value your dedication and contributions to the success of WGL and its affiliates,   including Washington Gas Light Company (the “Company”), and would like for you to continue making   valuable contributions going forward. Therefore, subject to the consummation of the transactions   contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the closing of such transactions (the date of the closing of such   transactions, the “Closing Date”), the Company is pleased to extend an offer for you to continue your   employment with the Company as Chief Executive Officer and President beginning on the Closing Date.   In addition, subject to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the   Company is pleased to offer you the opportunity to earn a special retention bonus on the terms and   conditions set forth in this letter (this “Letter”).       A summary of the terms of your employment beginning on the Closing Date and the terms and conditions   of the special retention bonus are as follows:       1. Base Salary       Commencing on the Closing Date, your annualized base salary will be $630,000.00 (USD), subject to   applicable taxes and other withholdings as required by law or the policies of the Company.       2. Benefits      During your employment with the Company from and after the Closing Date, you will be eligible to   participate in the employee benefit programs and plans sponsored and maintained by the Company and   made available to similarly situated employees from time to time, which, for the two-year period beginning   on the Closing Date, will be no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the employee benefit programs   sponsored and maintained by the Company in which you participated immediately prior to the Closing   Date, subject to the terms of the applicable programs and plans as in effect from time to time. You will also   be entitled to the fringe benefits and perquisites that are made available to other similarly situated employees   of the Company, each in accordance with and subject to the eligibility and other provisions of such plans   and programs as in effect from time to time.        In addition, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, you will be eligible to participate in any   change in control severance plan that covers any other similarly situated executive employees of the   Company and, for the two-year period beginning on the Closing Date, your participation in the following   plans shall continue with the same benefit accruals and on the same terms and conditions as in effect prior   to the date of this Letter:           •  Washington Gas Light Company Employees’ Pension Plan       •  Washington Gas Light Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, as amended                                       CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT   US 5570020  

 

         3. Retention Bonus      In recognition of your continued service with the Company from the date of this Letter through the Closing   Date, the Company is offering you a retention bonus in the amount of $3,059,500.00 (USD), less applicable   taxes and other withholdings and deductions as required by law or the policies of the Company (the   “Retention Bonus”), subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions of this Letter. The Retention   Bonus will be paid to you in a lump sum cash payment within the 30 days immediately following the  Closing Date, so long as you remain continuously employed by the Company from the date of this Letter  through the Closing Date. You will not be eligible to receive the Retention Bonus if your employment with  the Company terminates for any reason prior to the Closing Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, if your  employment with the Company terminates prior to the Closing Date, the compensation and benefits you  will be eligible to receive in connection with such termination will be governed by that certain WGL   Holdings, Inc. and Washington Gas Light Company Change in Control Severance Plan for Certain   Executives, as amended (the “Change in Control Severance Plan”), in accordance with its existing terms  and conditions.        The Retention Bonus is subject to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger   Agreement. Accordingly, in the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated and the closing of the   transactions contemplated thereby does not occur, you will not receive the Retention Bonus (or any portion   thereof). Payment of the Retention Bonus is subject to your compliance with, and you hereby agree that   you will abide by, the Post-Employment Policy (as defined below and amended herein), which is  incorporated herein by reference, and a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 to the Change in Control  Severance Plan.  In addition, as a condition to the receipt of the Retention Bonus, you must first execute  and deliver to the Company (and not revoke in any time provided by the Company to do so) a general  release of claims (the “Release”), which Release shall be delivered to you no later than seven days following  the Closing Date and be substantially in the form attached to this Letter as Exhibit A (subject to any changes  that the Company determines are necessary or desirable as a result of changes in applicable law), on or prior  to the date that is 21 days following the date upon which the Company delivers the Release to you, which  Release shall release and discharge the Company, WGL, AltaGas, their respective affiliates, and each of  the foregoing entities’ respective owners, shareholders, partners, officers, managers, members, employees,  directors, attorneys, affiliates, subsidiaries, parent companies, successors and assigns (collectively, the  “Company Parties”) from any and all claims or causes of action arising out of your employment with the  Company or any other Company Party or, if applicable, the termination of such employment, and in either  case prior to your execution of the Release, other than claims relating to the right to receive the Retention  Bonus, to the benefits described in Sections 4.1(b) and 4.1(c) of the Change in Control Severance Plan (as  described below) and to benefit entitlements under the programs described in section 2 of this Letter, as  well as claims that cannot be waived under applicable law and claims arising after the day on which you  execute the Release.  For the avoidance of doubt, if you terminate your employment for any reason at any  time during the two-year period following the Closing Date, you will receive your benefits under Sections  4.1(b) and 4.1(c) of the Change in Control Severance Plan, subject to your compliance with, and you hereby  agree that you will abide by, the Post-Employment Policy (as amended herein), and your timely execution,  non-revocation and delivery to the Company of a Release, which Release shall be delivered to you no later  than seven days following the date of such termination and be substantially in the form attached to this  Letter as Exhibit A (subject to any changes that the Company determines are necessary or desirable as a  result of changes in applicable law).    In exchange for the Retention Bonus, you hereby agree that, effective as of the Closing Date, except as  otherwise set forth herein, this Letter extinguishes all rights, if any, that you may have and ever may have,  contractual or otherwise, relating to or arising out of the Change in Control Severance Plan, and you                                         2                                     CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT  

 

      expressly acknowledge and agree that, as of the Closing Date, the Company (and, as applicable, each other   Company Party) will have fully and finally satisfied all obligations that they have owed, and ever could   owe, pursuant to the Change in Control Severance Plan, as all Company (and, as applicable, each other   Company Party) obligations under the Change in Control Severance Plan shall be deemed fully and finally   satisfied as of the Closing Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the   contrary contained in this Letter, you will continue to be eligible to receive the benefits described in Sections   4.1(b) and 4.1(c) of the Change in Control Severance Plan on the same terms and conditions and under the   same circumstances you would have been eligible to receive such benefits under the Change in Control   Severance Plan prior to your entry into this Letter. For the avoidance of doubt, you acknowledge and agree  that, except for any benefits you may be eligible to receive pursuant to Sections 4.1(b) and 4.1(c) of the  Change in Control Severance Plan, the occurrence of the Closing Date (either alone or in conjunction with  other events) will not give rise to any rights to severance pay or benefits pursuant to the Change in Control  Severance Plan, and that neither the Company nor any other Company Party will have severance pay  obligations to you upon or following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the  contrary herein, in the event you are or may be otherwise entitled to any right or benefit pursuant to Section  4.5 of the Change in Control Severance Plan, you will not be deemed to surrender or forfeit, and this Letter  shall not be deemed to terminate or extinguish, any such right or benefit, and Section 4.5 of the Change in   Control Severance Plan shall remain applicable and in full force and effect. For the avoidance of doubt, this   includes, but is not limited to, the right to receive a Gross-up Payment (as defined in the Change in Control  Severance Plan) under circumstances where payments by the Company to you, under this or any other  agreement or arrangement, would exceed the limit for deductible payments under Section 280G of the  Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), by 10% or more.  To the extent you are not   entitled to a Gross-up Payment and any payments by the Company to you under this Letter or any other  agreement or arrangement with the Company would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section  280G(b)(2) of the Code), then such payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the minimum extent  necessary so that no portion of such amounts received by you will be subject to the excise tax imposed by  Section 4999 of the Code.  Such reduction shall be made in a manner determined by the Company that is  consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and that maximizes your economic position   and after-tax income; for the avoidance of doubt, you shall not have any discretion in determining the   manner in which the payments are reduced.      4. Short-Term Incentive Plan      During the term that you are employed by the Company after the Closing Date, you will be eligible to   participate in WGL’s or the Company’s, as applicable, annual short-term incentive bonus plan, as in effect   from time to time (the “Bonus Plan”), which shall provide you with an opportunity to receive an annual,   fiscal year bonus for (i) the WGL fiscal year beginning October 1 that includes the Closing Date and (ii)   each complete fiscal year thereafter during which you are employed by the Company, based on corporate   and individual performance criteria determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors of WGL (or any   successor thereto) or a designated committee thereof (the “Board”) and in accordance with the terms of the   Bonus Plan. Under the current Bonus Plan, and in your current position, each annual bonus shall have a   target amount equal to 85% of your then-current base salary, which amount shall be prorated to reflect any   WGL fiscal year that is less than 12 months, if applicable. Any “Pro-Rata Bonus” (as such term is defined   in the “Company Disclosure Schedules” to the Merger Agreement) that is paid to you for the fiscal year in   which the Closing Date occurs shall be applied towards your annual bonus for such fiscal year as described   in the preceding provisions of this paragraph.                                                                         3                                     CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT  

 

      5.  Long-Term Incentive Plan      During the term that you are employed by the Company after the Closing Date, you will be eligible to   receive annual grants under a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) for each complete fiscal year following   the Closing Date, as determined by the Board in its discretion. It is expected that your annual LTIP awards   will have an aggregate value on the grant date equal to 180% of your then-current base salary (determined  without regard to vesting criteria and valued using generally accepted accounting principles as of such   date), which may include performance-based vesting criteria in addition to a time-based vesting schedule.   Your participation in the LTIP will be subject to, and governed by, the terms and conditions set forth in the   award agreements and other documents pertaining to any such grants, including with respect to your   continued employment with the Company, vesting milestones and forfeiture and repurchase provisions,   which terms and conditions will be consistent with LTIP awards made to other similarly situated executives   of the Company.  Additionally, upon your retirement, vesting of the long-term incentive awards granted to   you in October 2017 will accelerate in full (to the extent such awards are still outstanding and unvested),   and such awards will be paid out in accordance with terms of the governing award agreements.        6.  At-Will Employment      Your employment with the Company will be for no specific period of time. Rather, your employment will   be “at-will,” meaning that you or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time,   with or without cause, and with or without notice and for any reason or no particular reason. Nothing in this   Letter provides a guarantee of employment for any particular time. Although your compensation and   benefits may change from time to time, the at-will nature of your employment may only be changed by an   express written agreement signed by an authorized officer of the Company.      7.  Post-Employment Restrictions      Effective as of the Closing Date, Section III.B.2. of the Company’s Policy of Post-Employment Restrictions   (the “Post-Employment Policy”), as it applies to you for purposes of this Letter, shall be amended and   restated so that such Section III.B.2. of that Post-Employment Policy reads, in its entirety, as follows:             2.    Solicitation of Customers.  The solicitation of any customer or prospective               customer of WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company with               whom or which the executive had substantive contact regarding actual or               prospective business with the Company during the preceding year, or for whom              or which executive had direct or indirect responsibility, or about whom or which              the executive obtained Confidential Information, in each case, as an employee or              representative of WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company,              which solicitation is with the intent of soliciting business competitive to that of              WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company or diverting              business from WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company.     In addition, nothing in the Post-Employment Policy or this Letter will prohibit or restrict you from lawfully   (i) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information   to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by any governmental or regulatory agency,   entity, or official(s) (collectively, “Governmental Authorities”) regarding a possible violation of any law;   (ii) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to you individually from any such Governmental   Authorities; (iii) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in an action or proceeding by any such   Governmental Authorities relating to a possible violation of law; or (iv) making any other disclosures that   are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law.  Additionally, pursuant to the                                         4                                     CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT

Short-Term Incentive Plan      During the term that you are employed by the Company after the Closing Date, you will be eligible to   participate in WGL’s or the Company’s, as applicable, annual short-term incentive bonus plan, as in effect   from time to time (the “Bonus Plan”), which shall provide you with an opportunity to receive an annual,   fiscal year bonus for (i) the WGL fiscal year beginning October 1 that includes the Closing Date and (ii)   each complete fiscal year thereafter during which you are employed by the Company, based on corporate   and individual performance criteria determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors of WGL (or any   successor thereto) or a designated committee thereof (the “Board”) and in accordance with the terms of the   Bonus Plan. Under the current Bonus Plan, and in your current position, each annual bonus shall have a   target amount equal to 70% of your then-current base salary, which amount shall be prorated to reflect any   WGL fiscal year that is less than 12 months, if applicable. Any “Pro-Rata Bonus” (as such term is defined   in the “Company Disclosure Schedules” to the Merger Agreement) that is paid to you for the fiscal year in   which the Closing Date occurs shall be applied towards your annual bonus for such fiscal year as described  in the preceding provisions of this paragraph.                                                                       3                                     CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT  

 

      5.  Long-Term Incentive Plan      During the term that you are employed by the Company after the Closing Date, you will be eligible to   receive annual grants under a long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”) for each complete fiscal year following   the Closing Date, as determined by the Board in its discretion. It is expected that your annual LTIP awards   will have an aggregate value on the grant date equal to 130% of your then-current base salary (determined  without regard to vesting criteria and valued using generally accepted accounting principles as of such   date), which may include performance-based vesting criteria in addition to a time-based vesting schedule.   Your participation in the LTIP will be subject to, and governed by, the terms and conditions set forth in the   award agreements and other documents pertaining to any such grants, including with respect to your   continued employment with the Company, vesting milestones and forfeiture and repurchase provisions,   which terms and conditions will be consistent with LTIP awards made to other similarly situated executives   of the Company.        6.  At-Will Employment      Your employment with the Company will be for no specific period of time. Rather, your employment will   be “at-will,” meaning that you or the Company may terminate the employment relationship at any time,  with or without cause, and with or without notice and for any reason or no particular reason. Nothing in this  Letter provides a guarantee of employment for any particular time. Although your compensation and  benefits may change from time to time, the at-will nature of your employment may only be changed by an  express written agreement signed by an authorized officer of the Company.    7.  Post-Employment Restrictions     Effective as of the Closing Date, Section III.B.2. of the Company’s Policy of Post-Employment Restrictions   (the “Post-Employment Policy”), as it applies to you for purposes of this Letter, shall be amended and   restated so that such Section III.B.2. of that Post-Employment Policy reads, in its entirety, as follows:             2.    Solicitation of Customers.  The solicitation of any customer or prospective               customer of WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company with               whom or which the executive had substantive contact regarding actual or               prospective business with the Company during the preceding year, or for whom               or which executive had direct or indirect responsibility, or about whom or which               the executive obtained Confidential Information, in each case, as an employee or               representative of WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company,               which solicitation is with the intent of soliciting business competitive to that of              WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company or diverting              business from WGL Holdings, Inc. and/or Washington Gas Light Company.     In addition, nothing in the Post-Employment Policy or this Letter will prohibit or restrict you from lawfully   (i) initiating communications directly with, cooperating with, providing information to, causing information   to be provided to, or otherwise assisting in an investigation by any governmental or regulatory agency,   entity, or official(s) (collectively, “Governmental Authorities”) regarding a possible violation of any law;   (ii) responding to any inquiry or legal process directed to you individually from any such Governmental   Authorities; (iii) testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in an action or proceeding by any such   Governmental Authorities relating to a possible violation of law; or (iv) making any other disclosures that   are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any applicable law.  Additionally, pursuant to the   federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, you shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal   or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (1) is made (A) in confidence to a federal,                                         4                                     CONFIDENTIAL                                  TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT  

 

    state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (B) solely for the  purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (2) is made to your attorney in relation  to a lawsuit for retaliation against you for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (3) is made in a  complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.   Nothing in this Letter requires you to obtain prior authorization before engaging in any conduct described  in this paragraph, or to notify WGL and/or the Company or any of their respective affiliates that you have  engaged in any such conduct.
