permissible on Form S-8 the Company will register such shares on Form S-3, subject to customary underwriter lock ups and cutbacks, if applicable, and shall rank in equal priority with the registration rights held by existing preferred
stockholders.
  5.          Severance Agreement.  If the Company shall terminate your employment agreement without “cause” or
if a “constructive termination” has occurred or if you die or become disabled while employed by the Company, the Company shall pay your base salary that would have been payable, for the next six months.  During that six month period,

	 President and Chief Executive OfficerEMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND MORIO NISHIKAWA EXECUTED 4-11-2003

 Exhibit 10.1 
  
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this eleventh day of December, 2002, by and between JohnsonDiversey, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“JDI”)
and Morio Nishikawa (“Employee”). 
  
 In consideration
of the mutual promises and agreements set forth below, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I 
 Employment 

 
 1.1 Position and Responsibilities. During the period of this
Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Employee agrees to serve as President, Japan, or such other officer position as Employee may be assigned to by the President/CEO or Chairman, and to be responsible for the typical
management responsibilities expected of an officer holding such position and such other responsibilities consistent with such position as may be assigned to the Employee from time to time by the President/CEO or Chairman. 
  
 1.2 Place of Employment. Employee’s initial principal place of
employment shall be Yamashita-cho SSK Building, 22 Yamashita-cho Naka-ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa-ken. 
  
 1.3 Duties. During the Period of Employment, the Employee shall devote all of his business time, attention and skill to the business and affairs of
the Company and its subsidiaries, except, so long as such activities do not unreasonably interfere with the business of the Company or diminish the Employee’s obligations under the Agreement, that Employee may (i) participate in the affairs of
any governmental, educational or other charitable institution, or engage in professional speaking and writing activities, or (ii) serve as a member of the board of directors of other corporations, and in either case, the Employee shall be entitled
to retain all fees, royalties and other compensation derived from such activities in addition to the compensation and other benefits payable to him under this Agreement; and provided further, that the Employee may invest his personal or family funds
in any form or manner he may choose that will not require any services on his part in the operation of or the affairs of the entities in which such investments are made. The Employee will perform faithfully the duties consistent with his position
and which may be assigned to him from time to time by the President/CEO or Chairman. 
  
 ARTICLE II 
 Term and Termination 
  
 2.1 Term. Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall commence on January 1, 2003, shall be at will, and
may be terminated by formal or informal action of the Chairman or President/CEO at any time for any reason not prohibited by law. 
  
 2.2 Termination without Cause. If Employee’s employment shall be terminated other than for cause, as defined in Section 2.3 below, or by
resignation, Employee shall, in addition to any other compensation and benefits provided by JDI policies and benefit plans then in effect and, so long as he complies with all provisions of the agreements attached as Addenda B and C, and any other
local country benefits and plans in which Employee may participate, receive (a) continuation of his base salary for one year from the effective date of the employment termination; (b) a pro-rated performance bonus for the fiscal year in which
termination occurs, as described in Section 3.2, which shall be payable at the time and in the manner in which JDI normally pays such bonuses; and (c) reimbursement of expenses to which Employee is entitled under Section 5.3. To the extent local
employment laws in the Employee’s assigned country provide for additional benefits or compensation after termination, such local laws will supersede the provisions contained in this Section 2.2. 
  

 E-1 

 2.3 Termination for Cause. If the Chairman or President/CEO should terminate Employee’s
employment for cause, Employee shall not be entitled to any compensation or remuneration other than such amounts and benefits as Employee is eligible to receive under JDI’s then prevailing policies and benefit plans and as prescribed by law.
“Cause” means termination for any of the following reasons: 
  
 (a) Material breach of this Agreement. 
  
 (b) Failure to perform within the provisions of “This We Believe.” 
  
 (c) Willful misconduct, or willful violation of the law in the performance of duties under this Agreement. 
  
 (d) Willful failure or refusal to follow reasonable,
explicit, and lawful instructions or directions from the Chairman or President/CEO concerning the operation of JDI’s business. 
  
 (e) Conviction of a felony. 
  
 (f) Theft or misappropriation of funds or property of JDI, or commission of any material act of dishonesty involving JDI, its employees,
or business. 
  
 (g) Appropriating any corporate
opportunity of JDI, unless the transaction was approved in writing by the Chairman or President/CEO following full disclosure of all pertinent details of the transaction. 
  
 (h) Breach of the fiduciary duty owed to JDI as an officer of JDI. 
  
 (i) Breach of any duty or obligation under the agreements
attached as Addenda B and C to this Agreement. 
  
 2.4 Death or
Disability. Employee’s employment shall terminate automatically and immediately upon Employee’s death, or upon the Chairman’s or President/CEO’s written determination that Employee is unable, due to a disability, to continue
carrying out the duties and responsibilities of his position. For purposes of this Agreement, “disability” means the inability of the Employee, due to a physical or mental impairment, for 120 consecutive days to perform the essential
duties and functions contemplated by this Agreement with or without reasonable accommodation. A determination of disability shall be made by an independent physician selected by the Chairman or President/CEO who is deemed satisfactory to the
Employee, and Employee shall cooperate with the efforts to make such determination. Notice of determination of disability shall be provided by the Chairman or President/CEO in writing to Employee stating the facts and reasons for such determination.
Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. Nothing in this section, however, shall be deemed to alter JDI’s duty to reasonably accommodate, if possible, any disability of Employee. Any determination of disability
under this Section is not intended to affect any benefits to which employee may be entitled under any long-term disability insurance policy provided by JDI or Employee with respect to employee, which benefits shall be governed solely by the terms of
any such insurance policy. If employee’s employment is terminated under this section, Employee or his estate shall be entitled to receive payments as described in Section 2.2 above. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
 Compensation 
  
 3.1 Base Salary. The
Company agrees to pay the Employee an initial base salary (“Base Salary”) of $276,627. Such Base Salary shall be payable according to the customary payroll practices of the Company. The Employee shall be considered for an increase in Base
Salary effective April 1 of each contract year. 
  

 E-2 

 3.2 Performance Bonus. The Employee shall be eligible to receive a Performance Bonus in accordance
with the terms of the Performance Bonus Objective Plan. The Employee’s target bonus is 50% of fiscal year base salary. Depending on achievement of objectives, this amount can range between 0% and 200% of the target. The Performance Bonuses are
paid after approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, following the end of the fiscal year. 
  
 3.3 Flexible Spending Account. Employee shall be entitled to an annual Flexible Spending Account of $7,500 to be used for annual country club dues,
financial planning, tax advice/preparation, car lease and estate planning. 
  
 3.4 Benefits. Employee shall be entitled to participate in all benefit programs which JDI from time to time may make available to other executive level employees in the Employee’s assigned country for
benefit purposes. Employee shall have no vested rights in any such programs except as expressly provided under the terms thereof. JDI expressly reserves the right in its sole discretion to terminate or modify any such programs at any time and from
time to time. 
  
 ARTICLE IV

Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “LTIP”) in accordance with the terms of the LTIP and the provisions of this Agreement. As provided in the LTIP, however, the awards granted pursuant to the LTIP shall be in the sole
discretion of the Board of Directors Compensation Committee which administers the LTIP. The Provisions of the LTIP (including the defined terms) are incorporated by reference in this Agreement.

exercisable for a 7-year period from the date of grant. Options shall become vested four years from the date of grant except to the extent vesting is accelerated by the Committee. If Employee is terminated prior to the date he becomes vested as a

all options not yet vested. If Employee is terminated for other reasons, the committee shall determine if options are forfeited. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.01(a) of the LTIP, all Vested Options must be exercised within 90 days of
Employee’s termination of employment; otherwise, such Vested Options are forfeited. 
  
 (b) Exercise. Vested Options may be exercised by giving notice to the company of the number of shares being exercised accompanied
by full payment of the exercise price in cash or such other form of payment as the committee shall permit. 
  
 (c) Rights as a Stockholder. Employee will have no rights as stockholder with respect to shares subject to Options unless and until
they are exercised and Company Shares are actually issued to the Employee. 
  
 (d) Non-Transferability of Options. Options are not transferable except by the laws of descent and distribution on the death of the Employee.
