“(b)    Good Reason; Other Than for Cause.    If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive’s employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason: 
(i)      The Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination the aggregate of the following amounts:
     (A)      the Accrued Obligations;
     (B)      the amount equal to Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs;
(C)      the amount equal to the product of (1) three and (2) the sum of the Executive’s Annual Base Salary and the Average Bonus Amount; and
(D)      the amount equal to the product of (1) three and (2) 25% of the Executive’s Annual Base Salary (which amount is in lieu of continuing employee

For purposes of this Section 4(b)(iii), the term “Performance Award” means any award of performance share units or performance shares or any similar award that vests or is paid out based on the achievement of specified performance measures, is granted to the Executive after January 1, 2014, and is intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the applicable treasury regulations thereunder for certain performance-based compensation paid to Covered Employees (as such term is defined under the Incentive 

Compensation Plan); provided that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive’s Annual Bonus shall not be treated as a Performance Award and will be governed by Section 4(b)(iv).

(iv)      The Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum cash payment in an amount equal to the Annual Bonus that the Executive otherwise would have received had the Executive’s employment with the Company not terminated, based on actual achievement of the performance goals established for the fiscal year to which the Annual Bonus relates.  Such payment will be made at the same time as annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives or, if later, the date set forth in Section 4(c); provided that, in any event, such payment will be made by March 15 immediately following the last day of the fiscal year to which the Annual Bonus relates.”

3.    No Further Modification.  Except as specifically set forth in this First Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Employment Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.

In particular, your secondment will not affect your eligibility to participate in the Molson Coors Brewing Company’s (“MCBC”) Change in Control Protection Program.  

		
	1.2
	In the event of any inconsistency between this Letter and the Employment Contract, this Letter shall prevail during the term of your secondment by MCBC UK to MCE.

		
	1.3
	If any changes are made to your terms and conditions of employment (and/or to the Employment Contract) during your secondment to MCE, the secondment shall continue on the amended terms and conditions and the terms of this Letter.

		
	1.4
