and the Company wish to enter into an employment relationship on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. 
 Accordingly, the
Company and the Employee hereby agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Employment, Duties and Acceptance. 

 1.1 Employment. The Company
hereby agrees to employ the Employee for the Term (as defined in Section 2.1), to render exclusive and full-time services to the Company, in the capacity of President, and to perform such other duties consistent with such position (including
service as a director or officer of the Company or any affiliate of the Company if elected) as may be assigned by the Company or the Chief Executive Officer of Quality Distribution, Inc. (“Chief Executive Officer”), or in such other
capacity and with such other duties as the Company may assign. It is agreed and understood that, if applicable, the Employee shall resign as an officer and/or director of the Company or any affiliate immediately upon termination of his employment
hereunder for any reason. 
 1.1.1 Duties and Authority. During the Term, the Employee shall serve as the President
and shall have the normal duties, responsibilities, functions and authority of the position but subject to the power and authority of the Company’s President, the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board of Directors of Quality Distribution,
Inc. (the “Board”) to expand or limit such duties, responsibilities, functions and authority, consistent with the foregoing, and to overrule the actions of employees and officers of the Company. During the Term, the Employee shall
report to the Chief Executive Officer or another similarly situated executive as determined by the Chief Executive Officer or his designee.

material, relevant and reasonably required for the understanding of the matter in question sufficient to inform the person to whom such report or response is provided. Failure of the Employee to fulfill all fiduciary obligations ordinarily imposed

Salary and determine if, and by how much, the Base Salary should be increased.
