annually, which will accrue at the rate of approximately 1.67 days per month. If the total amount of vacation accrued reaches 30 days including any accrued
vacation during employment with NCM LLC, further accrual of vacation time will stop until the Executive brings the total amount of accrued vacation below 30 days. The Executive shall be permitted to carry over any accrued but unused vacation time

occurs; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded for prior periods but not yet paid;

 (b) Termination Due to Disability. The Company or the Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment due to
Disability of the Executive, such termination to be effective 30 days after delivery of written notice thereof. In the event that the Executive’s 

  

 4 

 
employment is terminated due to Disability and in exchange for a release of claims against the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to: 
 (i) his Base Salary, at the rate in effect when he is terminated due to Disability, for a period of six months following such termination,
offset by any payments that he receives under the Company’s long-term disability plan and any supplement thereto, whether funded or unfunded, that is adopted or provided by the Company for the Executive’s benefit;

 (iii) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement of any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the
date of his termination of employment; and 
 (iv) for a period of one year from the time of termination of employment, other
benefits to which he is then entitled in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 In the case of the termination of the
Executive’s employment for Disability, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the amounts described in clauses (i)-(iii) as a lump sum payment promptly after the termination of employment. 
 (c) Termination by the Company for Cause. In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, he shall only be
entitled to: 
 (i) his Base Salary through the date of his termination for Cause; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded but not yet paid; 
 (iii) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement for any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the
date of his termination of employment; and 
 (iv) other benefits accrued and earned by the Executive through the date of
termination in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 (d) Termination Without Cause or Expiration of Term of
Employment. A Termination Without Cause shall mean a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company other than due to death, Disability or for Cause, including termination of the Executive’s employment by reason of the
Company’s refusal to renew this Agreement on economic terms and conditions at least equal to this Agreement and for a term at least equal to one year at the end of the Term of Employment. 
 In the event of a Termination Without Cause and in exchange for a release of claims against the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to: 

(i) his Base Salary, at the rate in effect on the date of his termination of employment, for 12 months, payable in accordance with the
Company’s normal payroll practices; 
  

 5 

 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded but not yet paid; 
 (iii) continued participation in all employee benefit plans or programs as in effect from time to time in which he was participating on
the date of his termination of employment until the date he receives equivalent coverage in benefits, but in no event for a period longer than 12 months; 
 (iv) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement for any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the date of his termination of employment; and 
 (v) other benefits (other than for the payment of severance) that are made available to employees of the Company in general upon

 In the
event that, under the terms of any employee benefit plan referred to in subsection 8(d)(iii) above, the Executive may not continue his participation, he shall be provided with the after-tax economic equivalent of the benefits provided under any plan
in which he is unable to participate for the period specified in subsection 8(d)(iii) above. 
 The economic equivalent of any benefit
foregone shall be deemed the after-tax cost that would be incurred by the Executive in obtaining such benefit on the lowest available individual basis. 
 (e) Termination for Good Reason. The Executive may elect to terminate his employment with the Company for Good Reason, which shall be defined as a material reduction of the Executive’s title or
authority, which the Company fails to remedy within twenty (20) days after receipt from the Executive of written notice thereof, specifically citing this subsection 8(e). 
 In the event the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the benefits outlined in subsections
8(d)(i) through 8(d)(v). 
 (f) Voluntary Resignation by the Executive. The Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment
with the Company at any time with or without notice and with or without reason. Such voluntary termination by the Executive shall include, without limitation, the Executive’s decision not to renew this Agreement upon expiration of the Term of
Employment if the Company offers to renew this Agreement on economic terms and conditions at least equal to this Agreement and for a term at least equal to 18 months. In the event the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment, the
Executive’s salary shall cease on the termination date and the Executive will not be entitled to severance pay, pay in lieu of notice, or any other compensation other than payment of accrued salary and vacation and other benefits as expressly
required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans. 
  

 6 

 (g) No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of employment under this
Section 8, the Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment, and except as provided in subsection 8(d)(iii), he shall have no obligation to offset or repay any payments he receives under this Agreement by any payments he
receives from a subsequent employer; provided, however, that (without limiting any rights of the Company for any breach of this Agreement under law, equity or otherwise), if the Executive engages in any Covered Activity (as defined in
Section 9), any obligation of the Company to make payments to the Executive under Section 8 of this Agreement shall cease. 
 (h)
Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments or liquidated damages or both, and shall fully compensate the Executive and his dependents or Beneficiary, as the case may be, for
any and all direct damages and consequential damages that any of them may suffer as a result of termination of the Executive’s employment, and they are not in the nature of a penalty. 
 9. COVENANTS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 
 (a) During the Executive’s employment with the Company and for one year after termination of that employment, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, control or participate in the ownership,
management or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated as a consultant, independent contractor or otherwise with, any other corporation, partnership, proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity or
otherwise engage in: (i) any business that, during the Executive’s employment with the Company in any capacity (including as a consultant), competes with the business of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries;
or (ii) any business that, during the one-year period following the Executive’s termination date, competes with the business of the Company as conducted on the date the Executive ceases to be employed by the Company in any capacity,
(including as a consultant) (collectively, the “Covered Activities”); provided, that the ownership of not more than 1% of the stock of any publicly traded corporation shall not be deemed a violation of this covenant;
provided, further, that in the event of a Termination Without Cause, the Executive may engage in any Covered Activity if prior to accepting any such employment he enters into a confidentiality agreement with the Company in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company in its sole discretion (it being agreed that such confidentiality agreement may be broader in scope than the provisions of this Agreement and that such confidentiality agreement is intended to protect the
Company from any risks which may arise in connection with the specific prospective employment of the Executive). 
 (b) During the Term of
Employment and for one year after termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly induce any person who is an employee, officer or agent of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or
subsidiaries to terminate said relationship. 
  

 7 

 (c) During the Term of Employment and any time thereafter, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly
disclose, divulge, discuss, copy or otherwise use or suffer to be used in any manner in competition with, or contrary to the interests of, the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, the customer lists, or trade secrets of
the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, it being acknowledged by the Executive that all such information regarding the business of the Company and the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, compiled or obtained by,
or furnished to, the Executive while the Executive shall have been employed by or associated with the Company is confidential information and the Company’s exclusive property; provided, however, that this subsection 9(c) shall not apply to the
disclosure by the Executive of confidential information in the course of carrying out his duties under this Agreement or when required to do so by a court of law, to any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the business of the Company and
its subsidiaries or to any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order him to divulge, discuss or make accessible such information. 
 (d) The Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by him of this Section 9 will be inadequate and that the
damages flowing from such breach are not readily susceptible of being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that upon adequate proof of the Executive’s violation of any legally enforceable provision of this Section 9,
the Company shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief and may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach (all as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed
to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by the Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 9 that may be pursued or availed of by the Company. 
 (e) In the event that the Executive shall violate any legally enforceable provision of this Section 9 (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction) as to which there is a specific time period during which he is prohibited from taking certain actions or from engaging in certain activities, as set forth in such provision, then such violation shall toll the running of that time
period from the date of its commencement until the date of its cessation. 
 10. WITHHOLDING TAXES. 
 All payments to the Executive or his Beneficiary shall be subject to withholding on account of federal, state and local taxes as required by law. If any
payment hereunder is insufficient to provide the amount of such taxes required to be withheld, the Company may withhold such taxes from any other payment due the Executive or his Beneficiary. In the event all cash payments due the Executive are
insufficient to provide the required amount of such withholding taxes, the Executive or his Beneficiary, within five days after written notice from the Company, shall pay to the Company the amount of such withholding taxes in excess of all cash
payments due the Executive or his Beneficiary. 
 11. INDEMNIFICATION. 
 The Company and NCM LLC jointly and severally agree to indemnify the Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law consistent with the
charter, articles of 

  

 8 

 incorporation and bylaws of the Company and the Limited Liability Operating Agreement of NCM LLC as in effect on the
effective date of this Agreement with respect to any acts or non-acts he may have committed while he was an officer, director and/or employee (i) of the Company or any subsidiary thereof including NCM LLC or (ii) of any other entity if his
service with such entity was at the request of the Company. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 12.
EFFECT OF AGREEMENT ON OTHER BENEFITS. 
 Except as expressly set forth herein, the existence of this Agreement shall not prohibit
or restrict the Executive’s entitlement to participate fully in the executive compensation, employee benefit and other plans or programs of the Company in which senior executives are eligible to participate, as the Executive and the Company may
agree from time to time. 
 13. ASSIGNABILITY; BINDING NATURE. 
 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of the Executive) and
assigns. No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred pursuant to (i) a merger or consolidation in which the
Company is not the continuing entity or (ii) sale or liquidation of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and
such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company each further agree that, in the event of a sale of assets or
liquidation as described in the preceding sentence, it will use its best efforts to cause such assignee or transferee expressly to assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No obligations of the Executive under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive. 
 14. REPRESENTATION. 
 The Company and NCM LLC each represent and warrant that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement between the Company or NCM LLC and any other person, firm or organization. 
 15. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
 Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, this Agreement contains the entire
understanding and agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof. 
  

 9 

 16. AMENDMENT OR WAIVER. 
 No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized officer of the
Company. No waiver by any party of any breach by any other party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same or
any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized officer of the Company, as the case may be. 
 17. SEVERABILITY. 
 In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 18. SURVIVORSHIP. 
 The
respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and obligations as described in this
Agreement. 
 19. BENEFICIARIES; REFERENCES. 
 The Executive shall be entitled to select (and change, to the extent permitted under any applicable law) a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following the
Executive’s death by giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of the Executive’s death or of a judicial determination of his incompetence, reference in this Agreement to the Executive shall be deemed to refer to his
beneficiary, and if the Executive shall not have designated a beneficiary, his estate. 
 20. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION.

 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Colorado, without reference to principles
of conflict of laws. 
 21. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. 
 (a) Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved, in the Executive’s discretion, by arbitration, to be held in
Denver, Colorado, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. 
 (b) All costs, fees and expenses,
including attorneys’ fees, of any arbitration or litigation in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees of both the Executive and the Company, shall be borne by, and be the obligation of, the Company

  

 10 

 unless the Company shall substantially prevail, in which event the Executive shall be required to pay the costs and
expenses incurred by him relating to such arbitration or litigation. The obligation of the Company under this Section 21 shall survive the termination for any reason of this Agreement (whether such termination is by the Company, by the
Executive, upon the expiration of this Agreement or otherwise). 
 (c) Pending the outcome or resolution of any arbitration or litigation,
the Company shall continue payment of all amounts due the Executive under this Agreement without regard to any dispute. 
 22.

charitable activities and community affairs; provided, however, that in the opinion of the Board or Chief Executive Officer of the Company such activities do not materially interfere with the proper performance of his duties and responsibilities
specified in subsection 2(c) above and/or do not conflict with the Executive’s obligations under Section 9 below.

 3. BASE SALARY. 
 The Executive shall receive from the Company a Base Salary, payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices, of $415,000 per annum
less standard payroll deductions and withholdings. The Compensation Committee of the Board will review the Executive’s salary at least annually and may increase (but not reduce) the Executive’s Base Salary in its sole discretion. Once
increased, such Base Salary shall not be reduced and, as so increased, shall constitute “Base Salary” hereunder. 
 4.
BONUSES. 
 (a) The Executive shall be eligible to receive bonuses during the Term of Employment, as follows. The Company’s
bonus programs otherwise applicable for its employees shall not apply to the Executive. 
 For each calendar year of the Term of Employment
the Executive shall be eligible to be paid bonuses of up to 75% in the aggregate of the Executive’s Base Salary. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Executive shall mutually agree upon certain objective financial and subjective
non-financial goals to be achieved by the Executive and his staff for each such calendar year, and such goals will be set forth in the Company’s performance bonus plan. If the Company’s Chief Executive Officer is satisfied, in his sole
discretion, that such goals have been achieved with respect to any calendar year, then the Executive shall be entitled to payment of a bonus of up to 75% of his Base Salary as of the end of such year payable on or before 60 days after
December 31 of such year. 
 (b) The Compensation Committee of the Board will review the Executive’s bonus structure set forth in
subsection 4(a) at least annually and may adjust such bonus structure in its sole discretion. 
 5. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT.

 During the Term of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to prompt reimbursement by the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by him in performing services under this Agreement, upon his submission of such accounts and records as may be required under Company policy. 
 6. OTHER BENEFITS. 
 The Executive shall receive such other benefits as are then customarily
provided generally to the other officers of the Company and of its subsidiaries, as determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors or Chief Executive Officer, including, without limitation, paid vacation. The Executive shall
be entitled to four weeks of paid vacation annually, which will accrue at the rate of approximately 1.67 days per month. If the total amount 

  

 3 

 
of vacation accrued reaches 30 days (including any vacation accrued during employment with NCM LLC), further accrual of vacation time will stop until the
Executive brings the total amount of accrued vacation below 30 days. The Executive shall be permitted to carry over any accrued but unused vacation time from the previous year. 
 7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS. 
 The Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee benefit plans and programs made available to other of the Company’s executives having the same title or to its employees generally, as such plans or programs may be in
effect from time to time, including, without limitation, Section 401(k) and related supplemental plans, group life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, travel accident insurance, hospitalization insurance, surgical
insurance, major and excess major medical insurance, dental insurance, short-term and long-term disability insurance, sick leave (including salary continuation arrangements), holidays and any other employee benefit plans or programs that may be
sponsored by the Company from time to time, including any plans that supplement the above-listed types of plans, whether funded or unfunded. 
 8. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 
 (a) Termination by Death. In the event that the Executive’s
employment is terminated by death, his beneficiaries as defined in Section 19 hereof, shall be entitled to: 
 (i) the
Executive’s Base Salary, at the rate in effect on the date of his death, through the end of the month in which his death occurs; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded for prior periods but not yet paid; 
 (iii) continuation of
the medical benefits pursuant to COBRA to which he, his surviving Spouse and “eligible dependents” (as defined below) were entitled at the time of his death, for a period of one year following his death at the expense of the Company;

 (iv) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement of any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to
him on the date of his death; and 
 (v) other benefits to which he is then entitled in accordance with the applicable plans
and programs of the Company. 
 “Eligible dependents” means dependents of the Executive who are eligible to receive medical
benefits under the Company’s medical plan. 
 (b) Termination Due to Disability. The Company or the Executive may
terminate the Executive’s employment due to Disability of the Executive, such termination to be effective 30 days after delivery of written notice thereof. In the event that the Executive’s 

  

 4 

 
employment is terminated due to Disability and in exchange for a release of claims against the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to: 
 (i) his Base Salary, at the rate in effect when he is terminated due to Disability, for a period of six months following such termination,
offset by any payments that he receives under the Company’s long-term disability plan and any supplement thereto, whether funded or unfunded, that is adopted or provided by the Company for the Executive’s benefit; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded for prior periods but not yet paid; 
 (iii) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement of any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the
date of his termination of employment; and 
 (iv) for a period of one year from the time of termination of employment, other
benefits to which he is then entitled in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 In the case of the termination of the
Executive’s employment for Disability, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the amounts described in clauses (i)-(iii) as a lump sum payment promptly after the termination of employment. 
 (c) Termination by the Company for Cause. In the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, he shall only be
entitled to: 
 (i) his Base Salary through the date of his termination for Cause; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded but not yet paid; 
 (iii) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement for any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the
date of his termination of employment; and 
 (iv) other benefits accrued and earned by the Executive through the date of
termination in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 (d) Termination Without Cause or Expiration of Term of
Employment. A Termination Without Cause shall mean a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company other than due to death, Disability or for Cause, including termination of the Executive’s employment by reason of the
Company’s refusal to renew this Agreement on economic terms and conditions at least equal to this Agreement and for a term at least equal to one year at the end of the Term of Employment. 
 In the event of a Termination Without Cause and in exchange for a release of claims against the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to: 

 

 5 

 (i) his Base Salary, at the rate in effect on the date of his termination of employment,
for 18 months, payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices; 
 (ii) any annual bonuses awarded but
not yet paid; 
 (iii) continued participation in all employee benefit plans or programs as in effect from time to time in
which he was participating on the date of his termination of employment until the date he receives equivalent coverage in benefits, but in no event for a period longer than 18 months; 
 (iv) reimbursement in accordance with this Agreement for any business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to him on the
date of his termination of employment; and 
 (v) other benefits (other than for the payment of severance) that are made
available to employees of the Company in general upon termination of employment under similar circumstances in accordance with applicable severance plans and programs of the Company. 
 In the event that, under the terms of any employee benefit plan referred to in subsection 8(d)(iii) above, the Executive may not continue his
participation, he shall be provided with the after-tax economic equivalent of the benefits provided under any plan in which he is unable to participate for the period specified in subsection 8(d)(iii) above. 
 The economic equivalent of any benefit foregone shall be deemed the after-tax cost that would be incurred by the Executive in obtaining such benefit on
the lowest available individual basis. 
 (e) Termination for Good Reason. The Executive may elect to terminate his employment
with the Company for Good Reason, which shall be defined as a material reduction of the Executive’s title or authority, which the Company fails to remedy within twenty (20) days after receipt from the Executive of written notice thereof,
specifically citing this subsection 8(e). 
 In the event the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, the Executive shall be
entitled to receive the benefits outlined in subsections 8(d)(i) through 8(d)(v). 
 (f) Voluntary Resignation by the
Executive. The Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with the Company at any time with or without notice and with or without reason. Such voluntary termination by the Executive shall include, without limitation, the
Executive’s decision not to renew this Agreement upon expiration of the Term of Employment if the Company offers to renew this Agreement on economic terms and conditions at least equal to this Agreement and for a term at least equal to 18
months. In the event the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment, the Executive’s salary shall cease on the termination date and the Executive will not be entitled to severance pay, pay in lieu of notice, or any other compensation other
than payment of accrued salary and vacation and other benefits as expressly required in such event by applicable law or the terms of applicable benefit plans. 
  

 6 

 (g) No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of employment under this
Section 8, the Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment, and except as provided in subsection 8(d)(iii), he shall have no obligation to offset or repay any payments he receives under this Agreement by any payments he
receives from a subsequent employer; provided, however, that (without limiting any rights of the Company for any breach of this Agreement under law, equity or otherwise), if the Executive engages in any Covered Activity (as defined in
Section 9), any obligation of the Company to make payments to the Executive under Section 8 of this Agreement shall cease. 
 (h)
Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments or liquidated damages or both, and shall fully compensate the Executive and his dependents or Beneficiary, as the case may be, for
any and all direct damages and consequential damages that any of them may suffer as a result of termination of the Executive’s employment, and they are not in the nature of a penalty. 
 9. COVENANTS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 
 (a) During the Executive’s employment with the Company and for one year after termination of that employment, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, control or participate in the ownership,
management or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated as a consultant, independent contractor or otherwise with, any other corporation, partnership, proprietorship, firm, association or other business entity or
otherwise engage in: (i) any business that, during the Executive’s employment with the Company in any capacity (including as a consultant), competes with the business of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries;
or (ii) any business that, during the one-year period following the Executive’s termination date, competes with the business of the Company as conducted on the date the Executive ceases to be employed by the Company in any capacity,
(including as a consultant) (collectively, the “Covered Activities”); provided, that the ownership of not more than 1% of the stock of any publicly traded corporation shall not be deemed a violation of this covenant;
provided, further, that in the event of a Termination Without Cause, the Executive may engage in any Covered Activity if prior to accepting any such employment he enters into a confidentiality agreement with the Company in form and
substance satisfactory to the Company in its sole discretion (it being agreed that such confidentiality agreement may be broader in scope than the provisions of this Agreement and that such confidentiality agreement is intended to protect the
Company from any risks which may arise in connection with the specific prospective employment of the Executive). 
 (b) During the Term of
Employment and for one year after termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly induce any person who is an employee, officer or agent of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or
subsidiaries to terminate said relationship. 
  

 7 

 (c) During the Term of Employment and any time thereafter, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly
disclose, divulge, discuss, copy or otherwise use or suffer to be used in any manner in competition with, or contrary to the interests of, the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, the customer lists, or trade secrets of
the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, it being acknowledged by the Executive that all such information regarding the business of the Company and the Company’s affiliates or subsidiaries, compiled or obtained by,
or furnished to, the Executive while the Executive shall have been employed by or associated with the Company is confidential information and the Company’s exclusive property; provided, however, that this subsection 9(c) shall not apply to the
disclosure by the Executive of confidential information in the course of carrying out his duties under this Agreement or when required to do so by a court of law, to any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the business of the Company and
its subsidiaries or to any administrative body or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order him to divulge, discuss or make accessible such information. 
 (d) The Executive expressly agrees and understands that the remedy at law for any breach by him of this Section 9 will be inadequate and that the
damages flowing from such breach are not readily susceptible of being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, it is acknowledged that upon adequate proof of the Executive’s violation of any legally enforceable provision of this Section 9,
the Company shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief and may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach (all as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed
to limit the Company’s remedies at law or in equity for any breach by the Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 9 that may be pursued or availed of by the Company. 
 (e) In the event that the Executive shall violate any legally enforceable provision of this Section 9 (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction) as to which there is a specific time period during which he is prohibited from taking certain actions or from engaging in certain activities, as set forth in such provision, then such violation shall toll the running of that time
period from the date of its commencement until the date of its cessation. 
 10. WITHHOLDING TAXES. 
 All payments to the Executive or his Beneficiary shall be subject to withholding on account of federal, state and local taxes as required by law. If any
payment hereunder is insufficient to provide the amount of such taxes required to be withheld, the Company may withhold such taxes from any other payment due the Executive or his Beneficiary. In the event all cash payments due the Executive are
insufficient to provide the required amount of such withholding taxes, the Executive or his Beneficiary, within five days after written notice from the Company, shall pay to the Company the amount of such withholding taxes in excess of all cash
payments due the Executive or his Beneficiary. 
 11. INDEMNIFICATION. 
 The Company and NCM LLC jointly and severally agree to indemnify the Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law consistent with the
charter, articles of 

  

 8 

 
incorporation and bylaws of the Company and the Limited Liability Operating Agreement of NCM LLC in effect on the effective date of this Agreement with
respect to any acts or non-acts he may have committed while he was an officer, director and/or employee (i) of the Company or any subsidiary thereof, including NCM LLC or (ii) of any other entity if his service with such entity was at
the request of the Company. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 12. EFFECT OF AGREEMENT ON OTHER
BENEFITS. 
 Except as expressly set forth herein, the existence of this Agreement shall not prohibit or restrict the Executive’s
entitlement to participate fully in the executive compensation, employee benefit and other plans or programs of the Company in which senior executives are eligible to participate, as the Executive and the Company may agree from time to time.

 13. ASSIGNABILITY; BINDING NATURE. 
 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of the Executive) and assigns. No rights or obligations of the Company under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred pursuant to (i) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the continuing entity or (ii) sale or
liquidation of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities,
obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company each further agree that, in the event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in the preceding sentence, it will
use its best efforts to cause such assignee or transferee expressly to assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No obligations of the Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive.

 14. REPRESENTATION. 
 The Company and NCM LLC each represent and warrant that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement between the Company or
NCM LLC and any other person, firm or organization. 
 15. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 
 Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, this Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the parties concerning the subject
matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof. 
  

 9 

 16. AMENDMENT OR WAIVER. 
 No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and an authorized officer of the
Company. No waiver by any party of any breach by any other party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same or
any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by the Executive or an authorized officer of the Company, as the case may be. 
 17. SEVERABILITY. 
 In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 18. SURVIVORSHIP. 
 The
respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and obligations as described in this
Agreement. 
 19. BENEFICIARIES; REFERENCES. 
 The Executive shall be entitled to select (and change, to the extent permitted under any applicable law) a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following the
Executive’s death by giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of the Executive’s death or of a judicial determination of his incompetence, reference in this Agreement to the Executive shall be deemed to refer to his
beneficiary, and if the Executive shall not have designated a beneficiary, his estate. 
 20. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION.

 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Colorado, without reference to principles
of conflict of laws. 
 21. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES. 
 (a) Any disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved, in the Executive’s discretion, by arbitration, to be held in
Denver, Colorado, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. 
 (b) All costs, fees and expenses,
including attorneys’ fees, of any arbitration or litigation in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees of both the Executive and the Company, shall be borne by, and be the obligation of, the Company

  

 10 

 
unless the Company shall substantially prevail, in which event the Executive shall be required to pay the costs and expenses incurred by him relating to such
arbitration or litigation. The obligation of the Company under this Section 21 shall survive the termination for any reason of this Agreement (whether such termination is by the Company, by the Executive, upon the expiration of this Agreement
or otherwise). 
 (c) Pending the outcome or resolution of any arbitration or litigation, the Company shall continue payment of all amounts
due the Executive under this Agreement without regard to any dispute. 
 22. NOTICES.

 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment the Executive is a
“specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), if necessary to avoid any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will
defer the commencement of the payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits) until the date that is six months following the Executive’s termination of employment (or the earliest date as is permitted under
Section 409A of the Code) and (ii) if any other payment or other benefits due to the Executive hereunder could cause accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payment or other benefits shall be deferred or
otherwise restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board (but subject to the reasonable consent of the Executive), to avoid any accelerated or additional tax. The Company shall consult with the Executive in good faith
regarding application of this provision; provided that neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to the Executive with respect thereto. Nothing contained in this Section 24 shall have the effect of
increasing the amount of any payment or benefit which is otherwise owed by the Company to the Executive.
