THIS AGREEMENT,

W I T N
E S S E T H

 

WHEREAS, AGI
proposes to employ the Executive in the operations of the Company (as
hereinafter defined) and AGI is desirous of affording Executive incentives, in
the form of phantom stock of the Company, in connection therewith;

 

NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and
valuable consideration, AGI and Executive hereby agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I

 

EMPLOYMENT

 

Section l.l. Employment.  The Company hereby employs the Executive as
[                  ] of the Company to
perform such duties and discharge such functions in and about the business and
affairs of AGI and/or one or more of its subsidiaries, as the board of
directors of the Company may from time to time determine. Executive agrees,
during the term hereof, to diligently and in good faith perform and discharge
such duties and functions and Executive shall devote all of his working time,
energy and ability exclusively to the performance of his duties hereunder. Executive
shall not directly or indirectly engage or participate in the operations or
management of, or render any services to, any other businesses or enterprises.

 

Section l.2. Basic Compensation.  The Company agrees to pay Executive a base
annual salary and annual bonus (or such other amount as may be from time to time
determined by the board of directors of the Company) (collectively the “Basic
Compensation”). Basic Compensation payable under this section shall be payable
in accordance with such practices and procedures as are generally applicable to
other employees of the Company.

 

Section l.3. Fringe Benefits.  While Executive is in the employ of the
Company, the Company agrees to provide to Executive such benefits as may be
provided by the Company from time to time to its similarly situated employees.

 

Section 1.4. Severance.  If the Company terminates the employment of
the Executive without Cause or if the Executive terminates employment with the
Company for Good Reason, the Company shall (i) make a lump sum severance
payment equal to one (1) year of Basic Compensation (at the level being
paid at the time of termination), and (ii) pay to the Executive the amount
of the bonus, if any, accrued or earned to the date of such termination under
section 1.5 hereof. Such severance payment shall be made within 30 days after the
determination of the amount of the accrued bonus calculated pursuant to the
provisions of section 1.5 hereof. It is agreed that any termination of
employment is without prejudice to any other remedy to which the Company may be
entitled, either by law, in equity or under this Agreement.

 

In addition to the foregoing, if, during the period
of three (3) years following a Change of Control, the Company terminates
the employment of the Executive without Cause or if the Executive terminates
employment with the Company for Good Reason, the Company shall, at its expense,
continue providing

 

1

 

to
Executive, for the period of three (3) years following a Change of
Control, the same life and health insurance benefits as provided to Executive
immediately prior to such termination.

 

The Company has the absolute right to terminate this
Agreement, and the employment of the Executive hereunder, for Cause without any
further obligation to the Executive in respect of severance payments to the
Executive hereunder. For purposes of this Agreement, Cause includes, but is not
limited to the following:

 

(i)            Executive’s breach of the terms of this
Agreement or any other legal obligation to the Company; or

 

(ii)           Executive’s fraud, dishonesty, negligence,
misconduct or other deliberate action which causes injury to the Company or any
of its subsidiaries or to their respective reputations or an act of the
Executive involving moral turpitude or a serious crime.

 

The Executive shall not be entitled to severance
under this section 1.4 if the employment of the Executive is terminated for any
of the following reasons:

 

(i)            the Executive terminates this Agreement at
any time;

 

(ii)           death of the Executive;

 

(iii)          the Disability of the Executive.

 

Section 1.5. Bonus.  The Company adopts, from time to time, formal
written bonus programs for certain of its executives. Such written bonus
programs, if adopted and if extended to the Executive, shall be in addition to
the Basic Compensation payable under section 1.2 hereof. The amount of the
bonus will be determined on mutually agreed-upon objectives. The Company
reserves the absolute right to amend, replace or terminate, from time to time,
any such written bonus program and to determine the extent of its application,
all without any liability to the Executive. The bonus, if any, payable under
this section 1.5 shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the formal
written bonus program adopted by the Company.

 

Section l.6. Term.  The term of this Agreement shall commence on January 1,
2007 and continue through  December 31,
2009; provided, however, that Executive shall have the continuing option to
immediately terminate the employment provided by section l.l hereof by giving
two weeks’ notice thereof to the Company and the Company shall have the
continuing option to immediately terminate the employment provided by section
l.l hereof by giving written notice thereof to Executive which notice may be
effective immediately. Upon any such termination, all of the rights and
obligations set forth in this Article I shall terminate provided, only,
that the Company shall pay to Executive the severance, if any, payable under
section 1.4 hereof.

 

ARTICLE II

 

PHANTOM STOCK INTEREST

 

Section 2.l. Award of Phantom Stock Interest.
 The Company hereby awards the Phantom
Stock Interest to the Executive.

 

Section 2.2.   
Payment of Phantom Stock Interest.  The
Company shall pay, and Executive shall be entitled to receive, the cash value
of the Phantom Stock Interest, which shall be paid as follows:

 

2

 

(i)            one-third thereof within 30 days of the
determination of such cash value in accordance with the provisions of section
4.3 hereof, and

 

(ii)           one-third thereof on the first anniversary of
the Determination Date, and

 

(iii)          one-third thereof on the second anniversary
of the Determination Date.

 

Section 2.3.  Beneficiary.  Executive may designate (by filing with the
Company a written beneficiary designation form in form reasonably acceptable to
the Company) one or more primary beneficiaries or contingent beneficiaries to
receive all or a specified part of the cash value of the Phantom Stock Interest
which, at the time of Executive’s death, may remain unpaid under this Agreement
and Executive may change or revoke any such designation from time to time. No
such designation, change or revocation shall be effective unless executed by
Executive and accepted by the Company during Executive’s lifetime. Each such
designation, change or revocation shall be effective under this Agreement until
changed or revoked in the manner specified herein. No such change or revocation
shall require the consent of any beneficiary theretofore designated by
Executive. If Executive fails to designate a beneficiary, or designates a
beneficiary and thereafter revokes such designation without naming another
beneficiary, or designates one or more beneficiaries and all such beneficiaries
so designated fail to survive Executive, then the beneficiary of the Phantom Stock
Interest, or the part thereof as to which Executive’s designation fails, as the
case may be, shall be the representative of Executive’s estate. Unless
Executive has otherwise specified in the beneficiary designation, the
beneficiary or beneficiaries designated by Executive shall become fixed as of
Executive’s death so that, if a beneficiary survives Executive but dies before
the receipt of all payments due such beneficiary, such remaining payments shall
be payable to the representative of such beneficiary’s estate.

 

Section 2.4.  Benefits Not Transferable.
 Neither Executive nor any beneficiary
hereunder shall have any transferable interest in the payments due hereunder
nor any right to anticipate, alienate, dispose of, pledge or encumber the same
prior to actual receipt thereof, nor shall the same be subject to attachment,
garnishment, execution following judgment or other legal process instituted by
creditors of Executive or any such beneficiary provided that the unpaid cash
value of Executive’s Phantom Stock Interest and any payments due hereunder
shall at all times be subject to set-off for debts owed by the Executive to the
Company or its affiliates.

 

Section 2.5.  Nature of the
Company’s Obligation.  The Company
shall maintain a record of the Phantom Stock Interest but the Company shall not
be required to segregate any funds or other assets to be used for the payment
of benefits under this Agreement and no such record shall be considered as
evidence of the creation of a trust fund, an escrow or any other segregation of
assets for the benefit of Executive or any beneficiary of Executive. The
obligation of the Company to make the payments described in this Agreement is
an unsecured contractual obligation of the Company only, and neither Executive
nor any beneficiary of Executive shall have any beneficial or preferred
interest by way of trust, escrow, lien or otherwise in and to any specific
assets or funds. Executive specifically acknowledges that the Phantom Stock
Interest to be awarded pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are not
securities in the Company and do not create any right in the equity or capital
of the Company or any of its affiliates. Executive and each beneficiary of
Executive shall look solely to the general credit of the Company for satisfaction
of any obligations due or to become due under this Agreement, it being
expressly acknowledged by the Executive that the obligations of the Company
hereunder are junior and subordinate in right of payment to the obligations of
the Company to its or the Company’s lenders. If the Company should, in its sole
discretion, earmark or set aside any funds or other assets to pay benefits
hereunder, the same shall, nevertheless, remain and be regarded as part of the
general assets of the Company subject to the claims of its general creditors
(and shall not be considered to be held in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit
of Executive or any beneficiary hereunder), and neither Executive nor any
beneficiary of Executive shall have any legal, beneficial, security or other
property interest therein. Upon delivery by the Company to Executive of the
consideration as provided in section 2.2, the rights

 

3

 

and
obligations of the Company and Executive under this Article II shall
terminate and Executive shall have no other or further rights under this Article or
in respect hereof.

 

ARTICLE III

 

COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE

 

Section 3.l.  Covenant Not to
Compete.  Executive hereby covenants
that, for a period of eighteen months next following the Determination
Date (or such shorter period for which the Company continues to be owned or
operated by the Parent or its affiliates), Executive shall not be engaged or
interested in any business which competes, directly or indirectly, with the
publication or membership businesses of the Company or any subsidiary of the
Company (whether as a proprietor, partner with another, shareholder, agent or
consultant of, employee of or lender to, another) in the recreational vehicle,
camping, outdoor living or other markets then served by the Company or such
subsidiary, except as a proprietor, partner, shareholder, employee or
consultant in or to the Company or any entity controlled by, controlling or
under common control with the Company, provided that if the employment of
Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause, the foregoing covenant
shall not apply (without affecting the obligations hereinafter contained in
this section 3.l in respect of disclosures or solicitations by Executive) unless
the Executive shall have been paid severance pursuant to section 1.4 hereof. Executive
agrees that he will not at any time disclose to any person or other entity who
or which is, or reasonably may be expected to be, in competition with the
Company or its affiliates, any confidential information or trade secrets of the
Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective affiliates,
the contents of any customer lists of the Company, any subsidiary of the
Company or any of their respective affiliates or the general needs of the
customers or other contracting parties with the Company, any subsidiary of the
Company or any of their respective affiliates, provided, however, the foregoing
shall not prevent Executive from responding to the request of a governmental
agency or pursuant to a court order or as otherwise required by law. For a
period of one  year following the
Determination Date, Executive agrees not to offer employment to, not to discuss
the nature of any prospective employment opportunities with, and not to
otherwise solicit any employee of the Company or such subsidiary (or any person
who was an employee of the Company or such subsidiary within 180 days of the
Determination Date) on his own behalf, on behalf of any employer of the Executive,
on behalf of any entity with which the Executive is acting as a consultant or
with which the Executive is then otherwise affiliated.

 

Section 3.2.  Remedies.  Recognizing that a breach of the covenant
contained in section 3.1 would cause the Company irreparable injury and the
damages at law would be difficult to ascertain, Executive consents to the
granting of equitable relief by way of a restraining order or temporary or
permanent injunction by any court of competent jurisdiction to prohibit the breach
or enforce the performance of the covenants contained in section 3.l. The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Article or the
application thereof to any person or circumstance shall not affect or impair
the validity or enforceability of any other provision or the application of the
first provision to any other person or circumstance. Any provision of this Article that
might otherwise be invalid or unenforceable because of contravention of any
applicable law, statute or governmental regulation shall be deemed to be
amended to the extent necessary to remove the cause of such invalidation or
unenforceability and such provision as so amended shall remain in full force
and effect as a part hereof.

hereunder. Unless Executive shall give notice to the Company objecting to the

Profit for any period (or any other calculation to be determined for the
purposes of this Agreement) within thirty days after notice of the
determination thereof by the Company, such calculation shall conclusively be
deemed to have been accepted by the parties hereto. The cash value of the

The cost of the accounting services performed by the
Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Company unless the amount of the
Base Cost, Company Value, Formula Value or Operating Profit as determined by
the Independent Accountant is the same as the amount determined by the Company’s

Executive of the Phantom Stock Interest or the bonus payable under section
1.5), in which event the entire cost of the services of the Independent
Accountant shall be borne by the Executive and shall be deducted by the Company
from the Phantom Stock payment to be made pursuant to section 2.2 hereof or the
bonus payable under section 1.5, as the case may be.

 

Any of the obligations of the Company hereunder may
be performed by an affiliate of the Company and such performance by an
affiliate shall be deemed to satisfy any such obligation of the Company
hereunder.

legal relations between the parties determined, in accordance with the laws of
the state of incorporation of the Company.

 

Section 4.7. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more

Alliant Techsystems Inc.

 

Amendment to Employment Agreement

with Daniel J. Murphy, Jr.

 

This AMENDMENT is dated as of March 10,
2008, between Alliant Techsystems Inc. (the “Company”) and Daniel J. Murphy, Jr.
(the “Executive”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Executive have
entered into an Employment Agreement dated as of February 1, 2004 (the “Employment
Agreement”), which has been amended effective as of January 1, 2005, and the
parties now wish to amend the Employment Agreement further.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree that the
Employment Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

 

1.                                       Subsection 3(f) is amended in its
entirety to read as follows:

 

(f) You agree that the Company may, at its sole
discretion, defer any compensation including but not limited to salary,
bonuses, and stock awards, but excluding SERP payments subject to Section 4(b) of
this Agreement, that are not fully deductible for federal or state income tax
purposes.  The Company will defer only
those amounts that would exceed the deductibility levels under federal or state
income tax laws and only until the later of (i) the first taxable year of
the Company in which the Company reasonably anticipates, or should reasonably
anticipate, that the amounts would be fully deductible, or (ii) the later
of the last day of the Company’s taxable year in which your employment
terminates or the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following your
termination of employment.

 

2.                                       Paragraph 4(b)(xiii) is amended by
revising the second sentence thereof to read as follows:

 

In addition, if the Company determines that delaying
the time any SERP payment is made would increase the probability that such
payment would be fully deductible for federal or state income tax purposes, the
Company may unilaterally delay the time of the making of such payment or any
portion of such payment until the later of (i) the first taxable year of
the Company in which the Company reasonably anticipates, or should reasonably
anticipate, that the payment will be fully deductible, or (ii) the later
of the last day of the Company’s taxable year in which your employment
terminates or the fifteenth day of the third calendar month 

 

 

following your termination of employment, but in no
event later than twenty-four months after the date such payment would be
otherwise payable.

 

3.                                       Section 5(d) is amended in its
entirety to read as follows:

 

(d)                                 You will not have any rights
to these relocation expenses under this Section 5, unless you commence the
relocation process within one year following your termination from the Company,
and have completed such relocation within two years following your termination
from the Company.  All payments under this
Section 5 shall be made by the end of the third calendar year following the
calendar year in which your termination from the Company occurred.

 

4.                                       Subsection 6(d) is amended in its
entirety to read as follows:

 

(d)                                 Termination by Company
Without Cause.  If the Company terminates
your employment without Cause during the initial Term of Employment, you shall
be entitled to receive a payment equal to (i) two times the base salary
(established at the beginning of that fiscal year) that would have been payable
to you through the Term of Employment, or (ii) twenty-four months base
salary, whichever is greater.  Applicable
withholding and deductions shall be taken from this payment.  As a condition of receiving that payment, you
will be required to execute and not rescind a general release of claims against
the Company, in a form to be provided to you by the Company (“General Release
of Claims”).  If the Company terminates
your employment without Cause at any time on or after March 31, 2007, you
shall be entitled to receive a payment equal to twenty-four months base salary
provided you execute and not rescind a General Release of Claims.  Section 4(b)(ii) governs with
respect to payments under any SERP.  This
paragraph 6(d) does not apply in the event of a termination upon a Change
of Control. In that event, paragraph 6(f) shall apply.  You agree that this payment shall be in lieu
of any severance payment for which you are otherwise eligible for from the
Company.  Any payment under this
subsection shall be made on the first day of the seventh month following the month
of your termination of employment.
