of this 16th day of March, 2006 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Kathryn J. Wilson
(“Wilson”), on the one hand, and The PBSJ Corporation, and its subsidiaries and affiliates including but not limited to Post, Buckley, Schuh & Jernigan, Inc., PBS&J Construction Services, Inc., Seminole Development II, Inc.,
PBS&J Caribe Engineering, C.S.P., and Post, Buckley, International, Inc. (collectively “PBSJ,” and together with Wilson, the “Parties”). 
 Recitals 
 WHEREAS, at various times Wilson was an employee and officer of PBSJ
(collectively the “Affiliation Period”); 
 WHEREAS, Wilson and PBSJ are parties to a Key Employee Retention Program
Agreement dated January 1, 2005, amended to the date hereof (collectively the “Agreements”); 
 WHEREAS, PBSJ believes
it may have claims against Wilson arising out of acts, conduct, events or circumstances related to, arising from, or in connection with the Affiliation Period and/or the Agreements; 
 WHEREAS, Wilson expressly denies any claim(s), fault, improper acts(s) or alleged wrongdoing of any kind; 
 WHEREAS, the Parties wish to postpone or avoid the inconvenience, expense, and distraction of possible litigation by PBSJ against Wilson, while
fully preserving any rights of PBSJ that exist as of the date of this Agreement to commence legal action against Wilson at a future date, which, but for this Agreement, might otherwise be time-barred by any applicable statute of limitations, laches,
and other possible time-bars and defenses based in whole or in part on the time which may elapse from the accrual of such claims to the filing of an action (all of which time-bars and defenses, including, the statute of limitations and laches, are
referred to as “Time Defenses”); 

 WHEREAS, PBSJ and Wilson have the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and no other
parties are necessary to join herein in order to toll the statute of limitations and other Time Defenses; and, 
 NOW THEREFORE, in
consideration of PBSJ forbearing from initiating a lawsuit, arbitration or any other legal proceedings against Wilson at the present time, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Parties agree as follows: 
 Terms and Conditions 
 1. All of the foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein as part of the Agreement for all purposes. 
 2. With respect to any and all claims or causes of action, known or unknown, relating to, arising out of, or in connection with, the Affiliation Period and/or the Agreements, including but not limited to claims for
alleged breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligence, gross negligence, negligent misrepresentation, breach of contract, or any other claims or causes of action whatsoever (collectively, the “Tolled Claims”), the Parties hereby stipulate
that any applicable statute of limitations or other Time Defenses applicable to the Tolled Claims shall be deemed tolled from the effective date of this Agreement until the earlier of: (a) the expiration of four (4) calendar years from the
date of the execution of this Agreement; or (b) the termination of this Agreement by either PBSJ or 

  

 2 

 
Wilson in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The period of time during which any applicable statute of limitations or other Time
Defenses applicable to the Tolled Claims shall be deemed tolled is hereinafter referred to as the “Tolling Period.” The Tolling Period shall run from the date of execution of this Agreement until termination of this Agreement as provided
herein. For purposes of clarity, the tolling of the statute of limitations and other Time Defenses during the Tolling Period shall survive any termination hereof, such that any Tolled Claim which would have been barred as a result of the expiration
of the statute of limitations or other Time Defense with respect to such claim at any time during the Tolling Period may be brought by PBSJ at any time prior to the termination of the Tolling Period and Wilson may not assert the expiration of the
statute of limitation during such period or any other Time Defense as a defense to any such Tolled Claim brought by PBSJ. 
 3. Wilson
further agrees that she shall not interpose in any lawsuit or action between the Parties related to the Tolled Claims: (a) a defense that the applicable statute of limitations shall have expired during the Tolling Period and/or (b) any
Time Defenses based on the passage of time during the Tolling Period. The agreement set forth in this paragraph 3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 
 4. Either party to this Agreement may terminate the Tolling Period by giving the other party sixty (60) days prior written notice by certified mail of the termination of the Tolling Period. Any applicable statute
of limitations or other Time Defenses which apply to the Tolled Claims shall begin to run again from the effective date of termination of the Tolling Period.

 5. This Agreement may not be used or relied upon for any purpose other than the enforcement of its terms.
This Agreement shall not be admissible in any proceeding and shall not be used by either party in any proceeding, except solely for the purpose of establishing, if the matter is contested, the tolling of any statute of limitations or other Time
Defenses for the specific and limited period of time under such terms as are set forth in this Agreement. In the event that the terms of this Agreement are enforced in the context of a jury-trial in which any issue pertaining to the applicability of
the statute of limitations or Time Defenses is submitted to the jury, the Court shall instruct the jury on the application of the statute of limitations or other Time Defenses as altered by the terms of this Agreement, but shall not disclose this
Agreement or its existence to the jury or otherwise make reference to the existence of any agreement by the parties to alter or modify the application of the statute of limitation or other Time Defense. Nothing in this Agreement constitutes an
admission by any party that, in the absence of this Agreement, the statute of limitations and/or any other Time Defense has or would have run or become applicable, and this Agreement shall not be used in any proceeding as evidence of any such
admission, express or implied. 
 6. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to revive any claims of PBSJ of whatever nature which are
already barred, in whole or in part, by any Time Defenses, or the passage of time, as of the date of execution of this Agreement. 
 7.
Nothing in this agreement shall operate as a waiver of or prejudice any party’s right to assert that the statute of limitations or any other Time Defenses have been tolled or have not yet run for reasons other than the execution of this
Agreement. 
 8. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an admission of any fault, liability or wrongdoing by Wilson. Further,
nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of any defenses of Wilson to any claims of PBSJ which are not related to the passage of time all of which are expressly reserved by Wilson.
