the Executive under the Company’s annual incentive plans, or any comparable bonus under any predecessor or successor plan, for
the last three full fiscal years (or such lesser number of years that the Executive has been employed) prior to the Change of

  (p) “Term of Employment” shall mean the period specified in Section 2 below (including any extension as
provided therein).

     2. Term of Employment.

   
  (a) The Term of Employment began as of the Commencement Date, and shall extend through January 19, 2006, with automatic
one-year extensions thereafter, unless either Party notifies the other at least 90 days before such automatic extension that the
Term of Employment is not to so extend. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term of Employment shall end on the date on which the
Executive’s employment is earlier terminated by either Party in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.

     3. Position,
Duties and Responsibilities.

   
  (a) The Executive shall serve as the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall, subject
to the following sentence, be responsible for the general management of the affairs of the Company. The Executive assumed his
responsibilities as Chief Executive Officer effective February 12, 2001. The Executive shall be a member of the Board during the
Term of Employment and the Board shall designate the Executive as its Chairman. The Executive, in carrying out his duties under this
Agreement, shall report to the Board. During the Term of Employment, the Executive shall devote substantially all of his business
time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company.

   
  (b) Nothing herein shall preclude the Executive from (i) serving on the boards of directors of a reasonable number of
other corporations with the concurrence of the Board (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) serving on the boards
of a reasonable number of trade associations and/or charitable organizations, (iii) engaging in charitable activities and community
affairs, and (iv) managing

6

his personal
investments and affairs, provided that such activities set forth in this Section 3(b) do not conflict or materially interfere with
the effective discharge of his duties and responsibilities under Section 3(a).

     4. Base Salary.

     During the Term of
Employment, the Executive shall be paid a Base Salary, payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company, of
$1 million per year. The Base Salary shall be reviewed annually for any increase in the discretion of the Personnel Committee of the
Board.

     5. Annual Incentive
Award.

     During the Term of
Employment, the Executive shall have a target bonus opportunity each year equal to 100% of Base Salary, payable in that amount if
the performance goals established for the relevant year are met. If such performance goals are exceeded, the Executive shall receive
a larger amount of up to 200% of Base Salary. For the year 2001, Executive’s minimum award shall be equal to target, determined
on a Pro Rata basis. The performance goals for each year shall be established by the Personnel Committee in consultation with the
Executive. The Executive shall be paid his annual incentive awards no later than the date other senior executives of the Company are
paid their annual incentive awards and in no event later than 90 days following the last day of the fiscal year in respect of which
the annual incentive award is being paid. The Company may, but shall not be required to, implement the foregoing pursuant to a
shareholder-approved bonus plan or arrangement that satisfies the requirements for exemption from the limitation on deductibility
imposed by Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that is set forth in
Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for each fiscal
year of the Company which ends in the two-year period following the Change in Control Effective Date, the Executive’s award
shall be not less than the amount determined by multiplying his Base Salary for such year by the Recent Annual Bonus Percentage.

     6. Sign-on Arrangements.

   
  (a) Cash Sign-on Bonus. Following the Commencement Date, the Company paid the Executive a cash bonus of $250,000.

   
  (b) Stock Option Grant. As of the Commencement Date the Company granted the Executive a ten-year option to purchase two
million shares of The Gillette Company common stock, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

     7. Additional Long-Term
Incentive Awards.

   
  (a) Stock Options.

7

   
  (i) The Executive received a stock option grant of 650,000 shares in 2001, 700,000 shares in 2002, and one million
shares in 2003. The grants were made pursuant to The Gillette Company 1971 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and,
except as provided in this Agreement, shall be controlled by the terms and conditions of the Plan.

   
  (ii) On January 2, 2004, pursuant to Amendment No. 3, the Company granted the Executive, under the Plan, a ten-year
option to purchase one million shares (the “January 2, 2004 Options”). The January 2, 2004 Options shall vest
annually in one third segments over a three year period, such that the first segment vests on January 19, 2005, the second segment
vests on January 19, 2006, and the final segment vests on January 19, 2007. The grant was made pursuant to the Plan and, except as
provided in this Agreement, shall be controlled by the terms and conditions of the Plan.

   
  (iii) On June 17, 2004, pursuant to Amendment No. 4, the Company granted the Executive a ten year option to purchase one
million shares (the “2004 Equity Award”). The grant was made pursuant to The Gillette Company 2004 Long-Term
Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) and has the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto.

   
  (b) Other Stock-based Awards.

   
  (i)

   
  (A) On August 6, 2003, pursuant to Amendment No. 3, the Company awarded the Executive one million stock appreciation
rights, based upon the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Company’s common stock on June 19, 2003 and January 2,
2004. On January 2, 2004, pursuant to Amendment No. 3, the value of the stock appreciation rights was automatically converted into
108,480.1762 Stock Units (“SUs”) and credited to a Stock Unit account for the Executive on the books of the
Company.

   
     Each time a dividend is paid on the Company’s common stock having a record date on or after
January 2, 2004, the Company shall make additional credits to the Executive’s SU account calculated by multiplying the dividend
amount per share of the Company’s common stock by the number of SUs credited to the Executive’s account as of the record
date of the dividend and dividing

8

the result by the
Fair Market Value as of the dividend payment date.

   
  (B) The value of the Executive’s SU account shall be paid to the Executive in cash in a single lump sum on the
“Payment Date” which shall be the earlier of (A) the date one year from the date of his termination of employment or (B) a
Change of Control. The payment shall equal the Fair Market Value of the SUs credited to his account on the Payment Date. If such
date does not fall on a business day on which the Company’s common stock is traded on the NYSE, such calculation shall be made
using the Fair Market Value as of the next business day on which the Company’s common stock is traded on the NYSE.

   
  (C) Notwithstanding the above, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the dollar value of the SUs held in his
account only if he remains employed by the Company through January 19, 2005 unless prior to such date there is (x) a Change of
Control or (y) a termination of employment which is initiated by the Company without Cause, initiated by the Executive for Good
Reason, or as a result of Death or Disability. In the event the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company with Cause
or by the Executive voluntarily without Good Reason prior to January 19, 2005, the SUs shall be cancelled and no payment shall be
made by the Company pursuant to this Section 7(b). In the event of the Executive’s death prior to the payment of the award, the
value of his SU account shall be paid to his estate on the one year anniversary of his death.

   
  (ii) Unless the Executive's employment is terminated prior to June 30, 2005 by reason of Termination for Cause,
resignation without Good Reason, Disability or Death, no later than June 30, 2005 the Company will grant the Executive, under the
Plan, the 2004 Plan or any successor plan, a long-term equity opportunity consisting of options to purchase shares of common stock
of the Company and/or such other equity awards as may be permitted under such plan in such amount and upon such terms as shall be
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company taking into consideration the long term incentive compensation opportunities for
the comparable long term cycle of chief executive officers of peer group companies (the “2005 Equity Award”). If the
Executive's employment is terminated prior to January 19, 2006 due to termination by the Company for Cause or

9

resignation without
Good Reason, the 2005 Equity Award shall be cancelled.

   
  (c) Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, all outstanding options held by the Executive which
are not yet exercisable shall become immediately exercisable and all other equity awards shall vest and become non-forfeitable,
redeemable and/or otherwise free of restrictions.

   
  (d) Ongoing Long-Term Incentive Awards. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in any long-term incentive
program that may hereafter be made available to other senior-level executives generally; provided, that the Executive’s
participation therein shall take into account the grants to him pursuant to this Section 7.

     8. Stock Purchase.

     The Executive
bought $1 million in The Gillette Company common stock with his own funds from the Company on the Commencement Date, at a price per
share equal to the Fair Market Value on the Commencement Date, and agreed to hold these shares for a period of no less than three
years.

     9. Employee Benefit
Programs.

     During the Term of
Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee pension and welfare benefit plans, programs and
arrangements made available to the Company’s senior-level executives or to its employees generally on the same terms and
conditions as other senior-level executives, as such plans, programs or arrangements may be in effect from time to time, including,
without limitation, pension, profit sharing, savings, estate preservation and other retirement plans or programs, 401(k), medical,
dental, hospitalization, short-term and long-term disability plans, accidental death and dismemberment protection, travel accident
insurance, and all other pension or retirement plans or programs and employee welfare benefit plans or programs that may be
sponsored by the Company from time to time, including any plans or programs that supplement the above-listed types of plans
or programs, whether funded or unfunded; provided, however, that the Executive shall not participate in any of the Company’s
executive or group life insurance programs and, in lieu thereof and substitution therefor, the Company shall pay the premium cost of
the certain term life insurance policies (nos. MH0003676 and MH0003677 each issued as of December 28, 1999 by Old Line Life
Insurance Co. of America) covering the Executive and his spouse during the Term of Employment or until the sooner termination of
such policies. The Executive’s participation shall be based on, and the calculation of all benefits shall be based on, the
assumptions that the Executive has met all service-period and other requirements for such participation. The Executive shall be
entitled to six weeks paid vacation per calendar year of employment. The Executive agrees to cooperate with any

10

required eligibility procedures with respect to
such plans, programs and arrangements, including without limitation customary medical underwriting procedures.

     10. Supplemental Pension.

   
  (a) Following any termination of his employment with the Company other than by the Company for Cause or as a result of
his death, the Executive shall be entitled to receive a supplemental pension benefit with annual payments equal to five percent (5%)
of his Average Final Annual Compensation (as defined below) multiplied by his full and partial years of service with the Company
(including any additional years of credited service pursuant to Sections 14(d) and 15(c)); provided however, that the maximum annual
pension to which the Executive shall be entitled shall be 50% of his Average Final Annual Compensation. For this purpose,
“Average Final Annual Compensation” shall be defined as the Executive’s average cash compensation for the 36
consecutive months of highest cash compensation or such shorter period as the Executive has been employed by the Company, if the
Executive has been employed for less than 36 months with the Company. Cash compensation shall include all salary and bonuses earned
in respect of such 36-month period, regardless of when paid. The supplemental pension shall be fully vested and shall be paid
monthly with the first payment to be made at the beginning of the first month following the termination of the Executive’s
employment hereunder. The Executive’s entitlement to the supplemental pension benefit (apart from the determination of the
amount of the benefit as set forth in the first sentence) shall apply without regard to the period of the Executive’s
employment with the Company.

   
  (b) If the Executive should die with a spouse surviving him after he has commenced receiving a benefit under this
Section 10 (or would have commenced receiving a benefit but for the offset provided under Section 10(c)), the spouse’s benefit,
payable monthly, shall be determined in accordance with an election to be made by the Executive prior to the commencement of the
supplemental pension benefit. The post-retirement benefit provided the spouse shall result in the normal actuarial discount applied
to a joint and survivor benefit pursuant to the Company’s tax-qualified pension plan.

   
  (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the supplemental pension benefit (including a spouse’s benefit) determined in
accordance with this Section 10 shall be offset (but not below zero) by any pension benefit (including a survivor’s benefit) or
long-term disability benefit received by the Executive (or pension or survivor benefit received by the spouse) under any of the
Company’s defined benefit pension or long-term disability benefit plans but shall not be offset by any other pension or
retirement benefit paid by any prior employer of the Executive.

11

     11. Perquisites.

     The Executive shall
be entitled to perquisites on the same basis as provided to other senior level executives and, in any event, shall be entitled to
have the Company provide the following:

   
  (a) a car and driver for business purposes, including commutation, as provided in Section 13, and as needed or required
for security purposes;

   
  (b) reimbursement of tax and financial counseling fees under the terms of the Company’s Senior Executive Financial
Planning Program; provided, however, that beginning in 2004 the maximum reimbursement for such fees shall be $25,000 per year;

   
  (c) a residential security system;

   
  (d) membership and annual fees for two luncheon clubs; and

   
  (e) an annual physical by the doctor of his choice, including gross-up for any tax liabilities the Executive incurs in
respect to the provision of such annual physical.

     12. Aircraft Travel.

travel.

     13. Reimbursement

     The Executive is
authorized to incur reasonable expenses in connection with carrying out his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and the
Company shall promptly reimburse him for all such expenses incurred in connection with carrying out the business of the Company,
subject to documentation in accordance with the Company’s policy. The Company paid legal fees and expenses of $100,000 that
were incurred by the Executive in connection with the negotiation and implementation of the Executive’s employment arrangements
with the Company, including, without limitation, gross-up for any tax liabilities the Executive incurred with respect to such
payments.

     The Executive
shall be under no obligation to relocate his personal residence to the Boston area. The Company shall provide and maintain for the
Executive a 2-room apartment with full hotel services in the Boston area mutually acceptable to the Company and the Executive and
pay any costs associated with

12

the Executive’s weekly commuting from
Boston to the Executive’s residence in Rye, New York including, without limitation, gross-up for any tax liabilities Executive
incurs with respect to commutation costs.

     In the event the
Executive relocates from the New York area to the Boston area, the Company will pay all costs associated with his relocation,

reimbursements.

  (i) A termination for Cause shall not take effect unless the provisions of this subclause (i) are complied with. The
Executive shall be given written notice by the Board of the intention to terminate him for Cause, such notice (A) to state in detail
the particular act or acts or failure or failures to act that constitute the grounds on which the proposed termination for Cause is
based and (B) to be given within 60 days of the Board’s learning of such act or acts or failure or failures to act. In the
event the proposed termination is based on subclause (ii) of Section 1(e) above, the Executive shall have ten calendar days after
the date that such written notice has been given to the Executive in which

14

to cure such
conduct. If he fails to cure such conduct, the Executive shall then be entitled to a hearing before the Board, and, thereafter, upon
a determination by affirmative vote of no fewer than three-quarters of the members of the Board that Cause exists, he shall be
terminated for Cause.

   
  (ii) In the event the Company terminates the Executive’s employment hereunder for Cause:

   
  (A) he shall be entitled to Base Salary through the date of the termination; and

   
  (B) all stock options shall be forfeited.

   
  (d) Termination without Cause or Termination for Good Reason.

     In the event (x)
the Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by the Company without Cause, other than due to Disability or death, or (y)
the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason hereunder at his initiative within 60 days following the occurrence of a
Good Reason which has not been cured by the Company within 20 calendar days of receipt of notice thereof from the Executive, the
Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits:

   
  (i) Base Salary through the date of termination;

   
  (ii) a Pro-Rata annual incentive award for the year of termination, based on the target bonus for such year, payable
promptly following such termination;

   
  (iii) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to two times the Executive’s Base Salary, determined as provided in the
last sentence of this Section 14(d), payable promptly following such termination;

   
  (iv) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to two times the Executive’s target annual incentive award for the year
of termination, payable promptly following such termination;

   
  (v) all outstanding stock options shall become fully vested and exercisable and such termination shall be treated as a
retirement and, in the case of stock options granted prior to the year 2002, shall remain exercisable for a period equal to the
lesser of the remainder of their originally scheduled terms and five years and in the case of stock options granted in the year 2002
or thereafter, such stock options shall remain exercisable for the remainder of their originally scheduled terms; all other equity

15

awards shall vest
and become non-forfeitable, redeemable and/or otherwise free of restrictions;

   
  (vi) two additional years of service for the purpose of determining the supplemental pension benefit pursuant to Section
10; provided, however, that the total number of years of service taken into account in determining such benefit shall in no event
exceed ten (10); and

   
  (vii) continued participation in all medical, dental, vision and hospitalization insurance coverage and benefits and in
all other employee and senior-level executive welfare benefit plans, programs and arrangements in which he was participating on the
date of the termination of his employment, on the same terms and conditions as if he had remained employed by the Company, for a
period equal to 24 months following the termination of his employment; provided, however, that if the Executive becomes re-employed
with another employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer-provided plan, the medical
and other welfare benefits described above shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period
of eligibility, provided that, to the extent that the Company’s plans, programs and arrangements
do not permit such continuation of the Executive’s participation following his termination, the Company shall provide the
Executive, no less frequently than quarterly in advance with an amount which, after taxes, is sufficient for him to purchase
equivalent benefits.

     For purposes of
Section 14(d)(iii) above, Base Salary shall be determined by the Base Salary at the annualized rate in effect on the date of
termination of the Executive’s employment, provided however, if, prior to the termination of the Executive’s employment
pursuant to this Section 14(d), the Base Salary has been reduced without the Executive’s consent, the Base Salary in effect on
the date of termination of the Executive’s employment shall be deemed to be the Base Salary as in effect prior to such
reduction.

   
  (e) Voluntary Termination. In the event that Executive terminates his employment hereunder on his own initiative, other
than a termination in accordance with Section 14(a), 14(b) or 14(d) (relating respectively to death, Disability and “without
Cause” terminations) (except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 14(f)), he shall be entitled to:

   
  (i) Salary through the date of the termination; and

16

   
  (ii) the lesser of 90 days and the remainder of the regularly scheduled option term to exercise vested stock options and
all unvested options shall be forfeited.

A voluntary termination by the Executive is not
a breach of this Agreement.

   
  (f) Retirement.

   
  (i) Options granted on or prior to January 2, 2004. The Executive shall be entitled to retire for the purposes of the
stock options granted to him prior to January 2, 2004, by voluntarily terminating his employment after January 19, 2004 whereupon
any such stock options which are not then vested shall become vested and exercisable. The Executive shall be entitled to retire for
the purposes of any stock options granted to him on January 2, 2004 by voluntarily terminating his employment after January 19, 2005
whereupon any such stock options that are not then vested shall become vested and exercisable. All stock options granted prior to
the year 2002 shall remain exercisable for a period equal to the lesser of the remainder of their originally scheduled terms or five
years, and all stock options granted during the years 2002, 2003 and the January 2, 2004 Options shall remain exercisable for the
remainder of their originally scheduled terms.

   
  (ii) The 2004 and 2005 Equity Award. The Executive shall be entitled to retire with respect to the 2004 Equity Award and
the 2005 Equity Award by voluntarily terminating his employment after January 19, 2006. Upon such termination for retirement, the
2004 Equity Award and the 2005 Equity Award shall vest and become non-forfeitable, redeemable and/or otherwise free of restrictions
and, in the case of any stock options granted under either award, shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable
for the remainder of their original terms; provided that in the event of such a retirement, absent a Change of Control, any shares
of stock acquired upon the exercise of any stock options granted under the 2004 Equity Award which vest and become exercisable by
reason of such retirement shall not be sold by the Executive for one year from the date of such retirement and any shares of stock
acquired by the Executive upon the exercise of any stock options granted under the 2005 Equity Award which vest and become
exercisable by reason of such retirement shall not be sold by the Executive for two years from the date of such retirement.

   
  (g) Other Termination Benefits. In the case of any termination of his employment with the Company, the Executive or his
estate, where applicable, shall also be entitled to prompt payment or provision of:

17

   
  (i) the supplemental pension benefit described in Section 10 (other than following a termination for Cause or death);

   
  (ii) unless Executive has been terminated for Cause, the balance of any incentive awards due for performance periods
which have been completed, but which have not yet been paid (subject to deferral of payments to the extent the Executive has
elected, irrevocably, such deferral);

   
  (iii) any expense reimbursements due the Executive; and

   
  (iv) other benefits, including senior level executive benefits, if any, in accordance with applicable plans, programs
and arrangements of the Company.

   
  (h) No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of his employment hereunder, the Executive shall be under
no obligation to seek other employment and except in the event of a termination by the Company for Cause there shall be no offset
against amounts or benefits due the Executive under this Agreement on account of any claims asserted by the Company or any
remuneration or benefits attributable to any subsequent employment that he may obtain, except to the extent set forth in Section
14(d)(vii).

   
  (i) Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 14 are in the nature of severance payments considered to be
reasonable by the Company and are not in the nature of a penalty.

   
  (j) Resignation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Executive’s
employment for any reason, unless otherwise requested by the Board he shall immediately resign from the Board and from all boards of
directors of subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Company of which he may be a member. The Executive hereby agrees to execute any and
all documentation of such resignations upon request by the Company, but he shall be treated for all purposes as having so resigned
upon termination of his employment, regardless of when or whether he executes any such documentation.

   
  (k) Cooperation in Litigation. For a period of two years following the termination of his employment, upon the
reasonable request by the Company, the Executive shall cooperate in any litigation or other dispute relating to any matter in which
he was involved during his employment with the Company; provided, that the Executive shall not be obligated to spend time and/or
travel in connection with such cooperation to the extent it would interfere with his other commitments and

18

obligations.  The
Company shall reimburse the Executive for all expenses he reasonably incurs in so cooperating, and shall pay the Executive a
mutually agreed fee for his time spent in such cooperation (including without limitation any travel time); provided, that if the
Executive and the Company cannot agree on such fee, they shall mutually select an independent expert to determine the appropriate
amount of such fee based upon prevailing market practices. The determination of any such independent expert shall be final and
binding, and the fees and expenses of such expert in making such determination shall be paid by the Company.

     15. Change of Control.

   
  (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 15 shall apply if there occurs
a Change of Control during the Term of Employment and the Executive’s employment is terminated (i) during the period from the
Change of Control Effective Date through the second anniversary thereof by the Company, other than for Cause or as a result of the
Executive’s Disability or death, or by the Executive for Good Reason, (ii) by the Executive for any reason during the 30-day
period immediately following the first anniversary of a Change of Control, or (iii) by the Company prior to a Change of Control, if,
in accordance with the definition of Change of Control Effective Date, it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such
termination of employment (A) was at the request of a third party that has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of
Control or (B) otherwise arose in connection with or anticipation of a Change of Control.

   
  (b) In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment described in Section 15(a), then the Executive
shall be entitled to the benefits set forth in Section 14(d), as modified by this Section 15. In lieu of the lump sum payments
provided for in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 14(d), the Company shall pay to the Executive, in a lump sum in cash
within 30 days after the date of termination, an amount equal to the aggregate of the following amounts:

   
  (i) the sum of (A) the Executive’s Base Salary through the date of termination to the extent not theretofore paid,
(B) the product of (x) the Highest Annual Bonus and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current
fiscal year through the date of termination and the denominator of which is 365, reduced (but not below zero), if the date of
termination occurs in the same fiscal year as the Change of Control, by the Executive’s Bonus Payment Amount, (C) if elected by
the Executive, any compensation previously deferred by the Executive under the Company’s Supplemental Savings Plan, Incentive
Bonus Plan and/or Stock Equivalent Unit Plan or any other plan, agreement or arrangement of the Company

19

(together with
any accrued interest or earnings thereon), and (D) any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid;

   
  (ii) the amount equal to the product of (A) three and (B) the sum of (x) the Executive’s Base Salary and (y) the
Executive’s Highest Annual Bonus; and

   
  (iii) if elected by the Executive within 60 days following execution of this Agreement and prior to the Change of
Control Effective Date, in lieu of and in substitution for the monthly benefit represented thereby, an amount equal to the lump sum
actuarial equivalent (utilizing the interest rate and mortality table in effect for lump sum distributions under the Company’s
tax-qualified pension plan immediately prior to the Change of Control Effective Date, and determined assuming benefit commencement
as of the date of termination) of that portion (if any) of the Executive’s monthly supplemental pension benefit otherwise
payable under Section 10, that accrues as a result of the application of the first sentence of Section 15(c).

   
  (c) In addition, in the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment described in Section 15(a), in lieu of
the benefit provided in clause (vi) of Section 14(d), the Executive shall be entitled to three (3) additional years of service for
the purpose of determining the supplemental pension benefit pursuant to Section 10; provided, however, that the total number of
years of service taken into account in determining such benefit shall in no event exceed ten (10).

   
  (d) Finally, in the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment described in Section 15(a), the following
additional benefits shall be provided to the Executive:

   
  (i) for purposes of determining the Executive’s eligibility for retiree benefits pursuant to the Company’s
welfare plans, practices, programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have remained employed until three years after
the date of termination, provided, however, that the Executive’s commencement of such retiree benefits shall not be any sooner
than the Executive’s earliest retirement date under the Company’s Retirement Plan and Supplemental Retirement Plan;

   
  (ii) the Company shall, at its sole expense as incurred, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and
provider of which shall be selected by the Executive in the Executive’s sole discretion; and

20

   
  (iii) clause (vii) of Section 14(d) shall be amended by changing the phrase “24 months” to “36
months”.

     16. Excise Tax.

   
  (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment,
benefit or distribution from the Company or its Affiliates to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable, received
or receivable, or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any plan or program of the Company or its
Affiliates or otherwise but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 16) (the
“Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or any interest or penalties are
incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties,
collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (the
“Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any interest or
penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up
Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payment.

  
   (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 16(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 16,
including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized
in arriving at such determination, shall be made by KPMG Peat Marwick or such other certified public accounting firm as may be
designated by the Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) that shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the
Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment or such
earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the
individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting
firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm
hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 16, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting
Firm’s determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result
of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
hereunder, it is

21

possible that
Gross-Up Payments that will not have been made by the Company should have been made (the “Underpayment”),
consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section
16(c) and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount
of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive.

   
  (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful,
would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no
later than 10 business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of
such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration
of the 30-day period following the date on which the Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on
the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the
expiration of such period that the Company desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:

   
  (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim,

   
  (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from
time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably
selected by the Company,

   
  (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and

   
  (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company shall bear
and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest, and
shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income or other tax (including
interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without
limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 16(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with
such contest, and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences
with the applicable

22

taxing authority in respect of such claim and
may, at its sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any
permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a
court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that, if the
Company directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the
Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise
Tax or income or other tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with
respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided, further, that any extension of the statute of
limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is
claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be
limited to issues with respect to which the Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and the Executive shall be entitled to
settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

  
   (d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 16(c), the
Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s
complying with the requirements of Section 16(c)) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest
paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the
Company pursuant to Section 16(c), a determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to
such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the
expiration of 30 days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid

and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

     17. Confidentiality;
Non-Competition.

   
  (a) The Executive agrees that he will not at any time during the Term of Employment or thereafter disclose or use any
confidential information of a proprietary nature relating to the Company or any Affiliate, and their respective businesses, which
information shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment by the Company or any Affiliate. For
this purpose, “confidential information of a proprietary nature” shall include pricing policies, technical processes,
formulae, inventions, research projects or other information regarding the financial and business affairs of the Company or any
Affiliate that at the time in question have not been disclosed to the public or within the relevant trade or industry.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of

23

this Section 17, the
Executive may disclose or use any such information (i) as such disclosure or use may be required or appropriate in the course of his
employment with the Company, (ii) when required by a court of law, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the
business of the Company or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction, or
(iii) with the prior written consent of the Company.

   
  (b) The Executive agrees that at the time of the termination of his employment with the Company, whether at the instance
of the Executive or the Company, and regardless of the reasons therefor, he will deliver to the Company, and not keep or deliver to
anyone else, any and all notes, files, memoranda, papers and, in general, any and all physical matter and computer files containing
information, including any and all documents significant to the conduct of the business of the Company or any subsidiary or
Affiliate of the Company which are in his possession, except for any documents for which the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate
of the Company has given written consent to removal at the time of the termination of the Executive’s employment and his
personal rolodex, personal files, phone book and similar items.

    
 (c) During the Term of Employment and for a period of two years following the termination of his employment, the Executive
shall not, other than in the course of performing his duties hereunder during the Term of Employment or as agreed by the Company in
writing, engage in a “Competitive Business”, directly or indirectly, as an individual, partner, shareholder, director,
officer, principal, agent, employee, trustee, consultant, or in any other relationship or capacity, in any geographic location in
which the Company or any of its Affiliates is engaged in business.

     The Executive shall
not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 17(c) from (i) his acquiring, solely as an investment, up to five percent (5%) of
the outstanding equity securities (measured by value) of any entity, (ii) his becoming a consultant, advisor and/or agent to any
entity providing consulting, investing or other services to any Competitor, so long as the Executive does not render services or
advice, directly or indirectly, to any Competitor or Affiliate of the Competitor or (iii) his becoming affiliated with an entity
which is not a Competitor which is subsequently acquired by or merged with a Competitor; provided that following such acquisition or
merger, his duties do not involve any responsibilities with regard to any Competitive Business.

     “Competitive
Business” shall mean a business that competes with a business that (i) was being conducted by the Company or any of its
Affiliates at the time of the Executive’s termination, and is being conducted at the time of the alleged violation, or (ii) the
Company or any of its Affiliates was seeking to conduct, or seriously considering conducting, at the time of the Executive’s

24

termination and the Company or any of its
Affiliates is actually conducting, or which the Company is seeking to conduct or seriously considering conducting, at the time of
the alleged violation. “Competitor” shall mean any entity which engages in any Competitive Business.

   
  (d) The Executive agrees that for a period of two years following the termination of his employment, he will not,
without the prior written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, knowingly solicit or encourage any officer, employee or
consultant of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company and its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company agrees that the Executive’s (i) responding to an unsolicited request of an employee of the Company for
advice on employment matters or (ii) responding to an unsolicited request for an employment reference regarding an employee of the
Company shall not by itself be deemed a violation of this Section 17(d).

   
  (e) The Executive agrees that the Company’s remedies at law would be inadequate in the event of a breach or
threatened breach of this Section 17; accordingly, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to its rights at law, to seek
injunctive and other equitable relief. If the Company defers or withholds payment of any amount otherwise payable under this
Agreement on the basis of an asserted violation of the provisions of this Section 17, and it is subsequently finally determined that
the Executive did not commit any such violation, the Company shall promptly pay all such unpaid amounts to the Executive, together
with interest at the applicable federal rate as defined in Section 1274 of the Code, from the date such payments should have been
made under this Agreement until the date they are actually paid.

     18. Resolution of
Disputes.

     Any dispute
arising under, or relating to, this Agreement, any other agreement between Executive and the Company or its Affiliates, the
Executive’s employment with the Company or any termination of such employment shall be resolved by binding arbitration, to be
held in Boston, Massachusetts, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment
upon the award rendered by the arbitrator, including any injunctive relief, may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
The Company shall advance to the Executive all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with such
arbitration within 20 days after receipt by the Company of a written request for such advance, subject to repayment by the Executive
thereof, if the arbitrator(s) determines that the Executive had no reasonable good faith basis for asserting his position with
respect to the dispute in question; provided, however, that if such dispute arises after a Change of Control, the Company shall have
no such right to repayment, regardless of the outcome of the arbitration and the Executive shall be entitled to receive interest on
any

25

delayed payment at the applicable Federal
rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code.

     19. Indemnification.

   
  (a) The Company agrees that if the Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact
that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director,
officer, member, employee or agent of another corporation, limited liability corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, the Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Company to the fullest extent legally permitted or authorized by the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or
resolutions of the Company’s Board of Directors or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Delaware, against all cost,
expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or other
liabilities or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by the Executive in
connection therewith, and not otherwise received by him from another source, such as insurance, and such indemnification shall
continue as to the Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member, employee or agent of the Company or other entity and
shall inure to the benefit of the Executive’s heirs and legal representatives. The Company shall advance to the Executive all
costs and expenses incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding within 20 calendar days after receipt by the Company of a written
request for such advance. Such request shall include an undertaking by the Executive to repay the amount of such advance if it shall
ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and expenses; provided that the amount of
such obligation to repay shall be limited to the after-tax amount of any such advance except to the extent the Executive is able to
offset such taxes incurred on the advance by the tax benefit, if any, attributable to a deduction for the repayment.

   
  (b) Neither the failure of the Company (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) to
have made a determination prior to the commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by the Executive under
Section 19(a) above that indemnification of the Executive is proper because he has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor a
determination by the Company (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or stockholders) that the Executive has
not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Executive has not met the applicable standard of
conduct.

26

   
  (c) The Company agrees to continue and maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering
the Executive with terms and conditions no less favorable than the most favorable coverage then applying to any other present or
former director or officer of the Company, both during the Term and for six years thereafter; provided, that during any periods when
such insurance policy remains in effect but the Executive is not serving as an officer or director of the Company, such policy shall
cover only acts, omissions and events occurring during his period of service as an officer or director of the Company.

     20. 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 a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the
continuing entity, or the 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 business and 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 further agrees that, in the event of a sale of assets or liquidation as described in
the preceding sentence, it shall take whatever action it reasonably can in order to cause such assignee or transferee to expressly
assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No rights or obligations of the Executive under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive other than his rights to compensation and benefits, which may be
transferred only by will or operation of law, except as provided in Section 26.

     21. Entire Agreement.

    
 This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written or oral, between the

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

     1. Grant of
Option. The Gillette Company (the “Company”) hereby grants to James M. Kilts (the “Optionee”),
effective as of January 19, 2001 (the “Grant Date”), an option to purchase an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of
common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at a price of $34.16 per share, purchasable as set forth in, and
subject to the terms and conditions of, this Stock Option Agreement and the Employment Agreement dated as of January 19, 2001
between the Company and the Optionee (the “Employment Agreement”). All capitalized terms not defined in this Stock
Option Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Employment Agreement.

     2. Exercisability
of Option.

   
  (a) On the Grant Date, this option shall vest and be exercisable with respect to 500,000 shares. On each of the first
three anniversaries of the Grant Date, except as otherwise provided below, this option shall vest and become exercisable with
respect to an additional 500,000 shares.

   
  (b) In the event that the Optionee’s employment with the Company is terminated due to death or Disability, pursuant
to Section 14(a) or 14(b), respectively, of the Employment Agreement, this option, to the extent not yet vested and exercisable,
shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of termination, and shall remain exercisable for all shares through the
first anniversary of such date, or, if earlier, January 19, 2011, at which time it shall expire to the extent it is not yet
exercised.

   
  (c) In the event that the Optionee’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause, pursuant to Section 14(c)
of the Employment Agreement, this option shall expire.

   
  (d) In the event that the Optionee’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause or for Good Reason,
pursuant to Section 14(d) of the Employment Agreement, or Retirement, pursuant to Section 14(f) of the Employment Agreement, this
option shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of termination and shall remain fully exercisable through the fifth
anniversary of the date of termination, or, if earlier, January 19, 2011, at which time it shall expire to the extent it is not yet
exercised.

   
  (e) In the event that the Optionee voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company prior to the third anniversary
of the Grant Date, pursuant to Section 14(e) of the Employment Agreement, this option (x) to the extent that it is exercisable as of
the date of termination, shall remain fully exercisable for 90 days following such date, or, if earlier,

A-1

January 19, 2011,
at which time it shall expire, and (y) to the extent that it is not exercisable as of the date of termination, shall expire.

   
  (f) Anything elsewhere to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) immediately prior to any Change of Control that occurs while
this option remains outstanding during the Optionee’s employment with the Company (to permit the Optionee, if he chooses, to
exercise the option and acquire the shares subject to such exercise prior to the Change of Control), this option shall become fully
vested and exercisable, (y) upon any termination by the Optionee which occurs pursuant to notice given by the Optionee within the 30
day period following the first anniversary of a Change of Control (a Termination under Section 15(a)(ii) of the Employment
Agreement), this option shall remain fully exercisable through the fifth anniversary of the date of termination, or, if earlier,
January 19, 2011, and (z) upon any involuntary termination by the Company without Cause which occurs during the
 one year period following a Change of Control, this option shall remain fully exercisable through January 19, 2011.

   
  (g) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this option shall cease to be exercisable with respect to any
shares at the end of the day on January 19, 2011.

     3. Exercise of Option.

   
  (a) Method of Exercise and Payments. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Stock Option Agreement, this option may
be exercised in accordance with any method applicable either to options granted under the Company’s 1971 Stock Option Plan, as
amended (so long as the Company has any options outstanding under such plan and regardless of whether there are options outstanding
thereunder if the Company shall not have adopted a successor plan) or under any successor stock option plan from time to time in
effect (collectively, the “Plan”), including, without limitation, the provisions for payment of the exercise price
of options and the provisions for delivery of shares purchased, and in accordance with the practices and procedures of the Company
applicable to exercise of options by senior executives generally. The Company has in effect, and agrees to continue in effect and to
make available to the Optionee at his election, for the term of this option, a “brokered exercise” program under the Plan.
The Company will make available to the Optionee loans or guarantees with respect to the exercise price insofar as made available to
any other senior executive or any director of the Company under the Plan or any other plan, program or arrangement of the Company.

A-2

  
   (b) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve, out of its authorized and unissued shares, a
number of shares sufficient to provide for the exercise in full of this option. All shares issued upon exercise of this option shall
be duly authorized and, when issued upon such exercise, shall be (i) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) registered
for sale, and for resale, under Federal and state securities laws and (iii) listed, or otherwise qualified, for trading in the
United States on a national securities exchange or national securities market system.

     4. Deferral of
Option Gains.

   
  (a) Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, the Optionee shall have the right, by
furnishing written notice to the Company during his employment with the Company and at least six months prior to any exercise of
this option, to elect to defer all or a portion of any gains realized upon or in connection with such exercise. Any such deferral
shall be made in such manner as may reasonably be required by the Company, including without limitation such requirements as may
apply in order to defer such gains for Federal and state income tax purposes. Payment of the exercise price for such exercise shall
be made by presenting to the Company shares of Common Stock (the “Presentation Shares”) owned by the Optionee
(which, in the event they were acquired by the previous exercise of a stock option, shall have been held by the Optionee for at
least six months before the date of such exercise) and having a fair market value (as defined in the Plan) equal to the exercise
price. The excess of the number of shares for which the option is exercised over the number of Presentation Shares shall be deferred
in the form of “Share Units” as discussed in the next sentence. A “Share Unit” shall represent a
share of Common Stock, including any dividends and other distributions that may be declared or made thereon during the period of the
deferral. The Share Units shall be paid out under the terms of the Optionee’s election to defer in the form of shares of Common
Stock.

   
  (b) To the extent that any gain that would be realized by the Optionee upon an exercise of this option during his
employment with the Company may not be deductible in full by the Company by virtue of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (such Section, together with any successor thereto and any regulations thereunder, referred to herein as
“Section 162(m)”), then the Optionee shall be deemed to have made a timely election to defer such portion of such
gain pursuant to Section 4(a) above until the later of (i) the time (if any) actually elected pursuant to Section 4(a) and (ii) 30
days following the date on which payment of all or part of such deferral amount will not result in loss of deductibility under
Section 162(m) (but only up to that

A-3

amount which
can be paid without loss of deductibility under Section 162(m)).

     5. Nontransferability
of Option. This option is personal and no rights granted hereunder may be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way
(whether by operation of law or otherwise) nor shall any such rights be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, except
that this option may be transferred in whole or in part (a) by will or the laws of descent and distribution, (b) to any Family
Member or to any trust, limited liability company, partnership or comparable entity, the principal beneficiaries of which are the
Optionee and/or his Family Members, provided that such Family Members and/or entities (and upon distribution their beneficiaries)
agree to be bound by the provisions of this Stock Option Agreement or (c) to organizations qualifying as charitable organizations
within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. For purposes of clause (b) of the
preceding sentence, “Family Member” shall mean the Optionee’s spouse, parents, the parents of the
Optionee’s spouse, and lineal descendants of any of the foregoing (including descendants by adoption) and any other individual
or entity included in the definition of “family member” for purposes of Form S-8 Registration Statement, as from time to
time amended. Any individual or entity to whom this option has been transferred in whole or in part in accordance with the first
sentence of this Section 5 shall, to the extent of the transfer, succeed to the rights, and assume the obligations, of the Optionee
under this Stock Option Agreement but may not transfer this option (in whole or in part) other than to the Optionee without the
prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Optionee shall give notice to the
Company of any transfer of this option, in whole or in part, pursuant to clause (b) of the first sentence o f this Section 5.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such transfer shall be effective unless and until Optionee and the transferee(s) have executed
such documentation of their respective rights and obligations as the Company may reasonably determine to be necessary or
appropriate.

     6. Adjustment
Provisions. The provisions of the Plan (as defined in Section 3(a) above, including Section 9 of the 1971 Stock Option Plan, as
amended, or any corresponding provision of a successor plan) with respect to changes in the Common Stock in certain events shall be
applicable to this option as if incorporated herein, and they are hereby incorporated by reference.

     In addition,
notwithstanding the last sentence of Section 9 of the 1971 Stock Option Plan, as amended, and any corresponding provision of any
successor plan, upon the occurrence of any event described in such sentence, the Company shall, if the Optionee so requests and the
Board approves, use its reasonable best efforts to arrange to have the surviving corporation or any corporation of which the Company
has become the direct or indirect subsidiary, assume this option or grant a replacement option to the Optionee.

A-4

     7. Tax Withholding.
The Company’s obligation to deliver shares upon the exercise of this option shall be subject to the Optionee’s
satisfaction of all applicable Federal, state and local income, excise, and employment tax withholding requirements (“tax
obligations”). The Optionee may satisfy any such tax obligations (a) in any of the manners provided in Section 3(a) above
for payment of the purchase price; (b) by authorizing the Company to sell securities that would otherwise have been delivered to the
Optionee having a Fair Market Value equal to, but not greater than, the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld; or (c) by any
combination of (a) and (b).

    
 8. The Company’s Representations. The Company represents and warrants that (a) it is fully authorized by action of its
Board (and of any person or body whose action is required) to enter into this Stock Option Agreement and to perform its obligations
under it; (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Stock Option Agreement by the Company does not violate any applicable
law, regulation, order, judgment or decree or any agreement, plan or corporate governance document of the Company or any agreement
among holders of its shares; and (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Stock Option Agreement by the Company and the Optionee,
this Stock Option Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except to the extent enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally.

     9. Miscellaneous.

   
  (a) Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Stock Option Agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration in
accordance with Section 18 of the Employment Agreement.

   
  (b) All notices and other communications relating to this Stock Option Agreement shall be given as provided in Section
28 of the Employment Agreement.

   
  (c) Sections 20 (other than the last sentence thereof), 23, 25, 26 (second sentence only), 29 and 31 of the Employment
Agreement (relating, respectively, to assignability; amendment or waiver; survivorship; references; headings; and counterparts)
shall be deemed incorporated herein in full, with the references to the “Agreement” in such Sections being treated as
references to this Stock Option Agreement and the references to the “Executive” in such Sections being treated as
references to the Optionee.

   
  (d) Nothing contained in this Stock Option Agreement shall be construed or deemed under any circumstances to bind the
Company to

A-5

continue the
employment of the Optionee for the period within which this option may be exercised.

   
  (e) This Stock Option Agreement shall be governed, construed, performed and enforced in accordance with its express
terms, and otherwise in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to conflict of laws principles.

CHANGE IN CONTROL EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

        
   AGREEMENT, dated as of the _____ day of ________________, ________ (this “Agreement”), by and between The
Gillette Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ______________ (the “Executive”).

        
  WHEREAS, the Company has determined that it is in its best interests and that of its stockholders to assure that the
Company will have the continued dedication of the Executive, notwithstanding the possibility, threat or occurrence of a Change of
Control (as defined herein). The Company believes it is imperative to diminish the inevitable distraction of the Executive by virtue
of the personal uncertainties and risks created by a pending or threatened Change of Control and to encourage the Executive’s
full attention and dedication to the current Company and in the event of any threatened or pending Change of Control, and to provide
the Executive with compensation and benefits arrangements upon a Change of Control that ensure that the compensation and benefits
expectations of the Executive will be satisfied and that are competitive with those of other corporations. Therefore, in order to
accomplish these objectives, the Company has entered into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

        
  Section 1. Certain Definitions. (a) “Effective Date” means the first date during the Change of
Control Period (as defined herein) on which a Change of Control occurs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
if a Change of Control occurs and if the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated prior to the date on which the
Change of Control occurs, and if it is reasonably demonstrated by the Executive that such termination of employment (1) was at the
request of a third party that has taken steps reasonably calculated to effect a Change of Control or (2) otherwise arose in
connection with or anticipation of a Change of Control, then “Effective Date” means the date immediately prior to the date
of such termination of employment.

        
  (b) “Change of Control Period” means the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the third
anniversary of the date hereof; provided, however, that, commencing on the date one year after the date hereof, and on
each annual anniversary of such date (such date and each annual anniversary thereof, the “Renewal Date”), unless
previously terminated, the Change of Control Period shall be automatically extended so as to terminate three years from such Renewal
Date, unless, at least 60 days prior to the Renewal Date, the Company shall give notice to the Executive that the Change of Control
Period shall not be so extended.

        
  (c) “Affiliated Company” means any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the
Company.

        
  (d) “Change of Control” means:

[Revised 10-2004]

        
  (1) The acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within
the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (A) the then-outstanding shares of common
stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the then-outstanding
voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting
Securities”); provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 1(d)(1), the following acquisitions shall not
constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company, (ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any
acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliated Company or (iv)
any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that complies with Sections 1(d)(3)(A), 1(d)(3)(B) and 1(d)(3)(C).

        
  (2) Individuals who, as of December 16, 1999, constituted the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any
reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director
subsequent to December 16, 1999 whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a
vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were
a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a
result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board.

        
  (3) Consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the assets of the Company (a “Business Combination”), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all
or substantially all of the individuals and entities that were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the
Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more
than 60% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business
Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that, as a result of such transaction, owns the Company or all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and the
Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Business
Combination or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business
Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of, respectively, the then-outstanding shares of common stock of
the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of
such corporation, except to the extent that such ownership existed prior to the Business Combination, and (C) at least a majority of
the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent
Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or of the action of the Board providing for such Business Combination;

Percentage and (ii) the Executive’s Target Bonus percentage under the Company’s Incentive Bonus Plan, or any comparable
bonus percentage under any successor plan, for the year in which a Change of Control occurs.

        
  (g) “Highest Annual Bonus” means an amount equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary
at the Date of Termination and (ii) the Highest Annual Bonus Percentage.

        
  (h) “Bonus Payment Amount” means the amount actually paid to the Executive pursuant to Section 13 of the
Company’s Incentive Bonus Plan or any comparable provision of any successor annual bonus plan.

        
  Section 2. Employment Period.  The Company hereby agrees to continue the Executive in its employ,
and the Executive hereby agrees to remain in the employ of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for
the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the second anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Employment
Period”).

        
  Section 3. Terms of Employment. (a) Position and Duties. (1) During the Employment Period,
(A) the Executive’s position (including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements), authority, duties and
responsibilities shall be at least commensurate in all material respects with the most significant of those held, exercised and
assigned at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date and (B) the Executive’s services shall
be performed at the office or location where the Executive was employed immediately preceding the Effective Date or at any other
location less than 35 miles from such office.

        
  (2) During the Employment Period, and excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to which the Executive is
entitled, the Executive agrees to devote reasonable attention and time during normal business hours to the business and affairs of
the Company and, to the extent necessary to discharge the responsibilities assigned to the Executive hereunder, to use the
Executive’s reasonable best efforts to perform faithfully and efficiently such responsibilities. During the Employment Period,
it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive to (A) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees,
(B) deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions and (C) manage personal investments, so long
as such activities do not significantly interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities as an employee of
the Company in accordance with this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed that, to the extent that any such activities
have been conducted

-3-

by the Executive prior to the Effective Date,
the continued conduct of such activities (or the conduct of activities similar in nature and scope thereto) subsequent to the
Effective Date shall not thereafter be deemed to interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities to the
Company.

        
  (b) Compensation. (1) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall receive
an annual base salary (the “Annual Base Salary”), which Annual Base Salary shall be paid at a monthly rate at least equal
to 12 times the highest monthly base salary paid or payable, including any base salary that has been earned but deferred, to the
Executive by the Company and the Affiliated Companies in respect of the 12-month period immediately preceding the month in which the
Effective Date occurs. During the Employment Period, the Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually, beginning no more
than 12 months after the last salary increase awarded to the Executive prior to the Effective Date. Any increase in the Annual Base
Salary shall not serve to limit or reduce any other obligation to the Executive under this Agreement. The Annual Base Salary shall
not be reduced after any such increase and the term “Annual Base Salary” shall refer to the Annual Base Salary as so
increased.

        
  (2) Annual Bonus. In addition to the Annual Base Salary, the Executive shall be awarded, for each fiscal
year ending during the Employment Period, an annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) in cash, determined as a percentage of
Annual Base Salary which shall not be less than the Recent Annual Bonus Percentage. Each such Annual Bonus shall be paid no later
than the end of the third month of the fiscal year next following the fiscal year for which the Annual Bonus is awarded, unless the
Executive shall elect to defer the receipt of such Annual Bonus.

        
  (3) Incentive, Savings and Retirement Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled
to participate in all incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies, and programs applicable generally to other peer
executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies, but in no event shall such plans, practices, policies and programs provide
the Executive with incentive opportunities (measured with respect to both regular and special incentive opportunities, to the
extent, if any, that such distinction is applicable), savings opportunities and retirement benefit opportunities, in each case, less
favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable of those provided by the Company and the Affiliated Companies for the Executive
under such plans, practices, policies and programs as in effect at any time during the 120-day period

immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided generally at any time after the
Effective Date to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (4) Welfare Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive and/or the Executive’s family,
as the case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits under the Company’s Executive Life
Insurance Plan and Estate Preservation Plan, and any other welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the
Company and the Affiliated Companies (including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability,
employee/spouse/dependent life insurance and travel accident insurance plans and programs) to the extent applicable generally to
other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies, but in no event shall such plans, practices, policies and
programs provide

-4-

the Executive with benefits that are less favorable,
in the aggregate, than the most favorable of such plans, practices, policies and programs in effect for the Executive at any time
during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided generally
at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (5) Expenses. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt
reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive in accordance with the most favorable policies, practices and
procedures of the Company and the Affiliated Companies in effect for the Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately
preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to
other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (6) Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits,
including, without limitation, tax and financial planning services, parking benefits and fitness center membership, in accordance
with the most favorable plans, practices, programs and policies of the Company and the Affiliated Companies in effect for the
Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as
in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (7) Office and Support Staff. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to an office
or offices of a size and with furnishings and other appointments, and to exclusive personal secretarial and other assistance, at
least equal to the most favorable of the foregoing provided to the Executive by the Company and the Affiliated Companies at any time
during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as provided generally at
any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (8) Vacation. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be entitled to paid vacation in accordance
with the most favorable plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company and the Affiliated Companies as in effect for the
Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as
in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies.

        
  (9) Effect of Termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon termination of
employment for any reason, the Employment Period shall cease and the Executive shall have no further right to any of the payments or
benefits described in Sections 2 and 3.

        
  Section 4. Termination of Employment. (a) Death or Disability. The Executive’s
employment shall terminate automatically if the Executive dies during the Employment Period. If the Company determines in good faith
that the Disability (as defined herein) of the Executive has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition

-5-

of “Disability”), it may give to the
Executive written notice in accordance with Section 11(b) of its intention to terminate the Executive’s employment. In such
event, the Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by
the Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt, the
Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Executive’s duties. “Disability” means the absence
of the Executive from the Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive business days as a
result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness that is determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the
Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative.

        
   (b) Cause. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment during the Employment Period for
Cause. “Cause” means:

   
  (1) the willful and continued failure of the Executive to perform substantially the Executive’s duties with the
Company or any Affiliated Company (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a
written demand for substantial performance is delivered to the Executive by the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
that specifically identifies the manner in which the Board or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company believes that the Executive
has not substantially performed the Executive’s duties, or

   
  (2) the willful engaging by the Executive in illegal conduct or gross misconduct that is materially and demonstrably
injurious to the Company.

For purposes of this Section 4(b), no act, or
failure to act, on the part of the Executive shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by
the Executive in bad faith or without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interests of
the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the
instructions of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a senior officer of the Company or based upon the advice of counsel
for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best
interests of the Company. The cessation of employment of the Executive shall not be deemed to be for Cause unless and until there
shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than
three-quarters of the entire membership of the Board at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after reasonable
notice is provided to the Executive and the Executive is given an opportunity, together with counsel for the Executive, to be heard
before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Executive is guilty of the conduct described in Section
4(b)(1) or 4(b)(2), and specifying the particulars thereof in detail.

        
  (c) Good Reason. The Executive’s employment may be terminated by the Executive for Good Reason.
“Good Reason” means:

   
  (1) the assignment to the Executive of any duties inconsistent in any respect with the Executive’s position
(including status, offices, titles and reporting requirements),

-6-

authority, duties
or responsibilities as contemplated by Section 3(a), or any other action by the Company that results in a diminution in such
position, authority, duties or responsibilities, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not
taken in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive;

   
  (2) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions of Section 3(b), other than an isolated,
insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith and that is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of
notice thereof given by the Executive;

   
  (3) the Company’s requiring the Executive to be based at any office or location other than as provided in Section
3(a)(1)(B) or the Company’s requiring the Executive to travel on Company business to a substantially greater extent than
required immediately prior to the Effective Date;

   
  (4) any purported termination by the Company of the Executive’s employment otherwise than as expressly permitted by
this Agreement; or

   
  (5) any failure by the Company to comply with and satisfy Section 10(c).

        
  For purposes of this Section 4(c), any good faith determination of Good Reason made by the Executive shall be
conclusive. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, a termination by the Executive for any reason during the
30-day period immediately following the first anniversary of the Effective Date shall be deemed to be a termination for Good Reason
for all purposes of this Agreement.

        
  (d) Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason,
shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 11(b). “Notice of
Termination” means a written notice that (1) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (2) to
the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the
Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, and (3) if the Date of Termination (as defined herein) is other than
the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the Date of Termination (which Date of Termination shall be not more than 30 days
after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or
circumstance that contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company,
respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance in
enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s respective rights hereunder.

        
  (e) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (1) if the Executive’s employment is
terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any
later date specified in the Notice of Termination, as the case may be, (2) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the
Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which

-7-

the Company notifies the Executive of such
termination, and (3) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death or Disability, the Date of Termination
shall be the date of death of the Executive or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

        
  Section 5. Obligations of the Company upon Termination. (a) Good Reason; Other Than for Cause, Death or
Disability. If, during the Employment Period, the Company terminates the Executive’s employment other than for Cause or
Disability or the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason:

   
  (1) the Company shall pay to the Executive, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination, the
aggregate of the following amounts:

   
  (A) the sum of (i) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore
paid, (ii) the product of (x) the Highest Annual Bonus and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the
current fiscal year through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is 365, reduced (but not below zero), if the Date
of Termination occurs in the same fiscal year as the Change of Control, by the Executive’s Bonus Payment Amount, (iii) if
elected by the Executive, any compensation previously deferred by the Executive under the Company’s Supplemental Savings Plan,
Incentive Bonus Plan, Deferred Compensation Plan and/or Stock Equivalent Unit Plan (together with any accrued interest or earnings
thereon), and (iv) any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in
subclauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), the “Accrued Obligations”); and

   
  (B) the amount equal to the product of (i) three and (ii) the sum of (x) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary and (y)
the Executive’s Highest Annual Bonus; and

   
  (C) if elected by the Executive within 60 days following execution of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Date, in
lieu of and substitution for the applicable portion of the Executive’s monthly benefit otherwise payable under the final
paragraph of Article IV, Section 1 or paragraph (a) of Article V, Section 3 of the Company’s Retirement Plan and the final
paragraph of Section 3 of Supplemental Retirement Plan (collectively, the “Retirement Plans”), an amount equal to the
excess of (i) the lump sum actuarial equivalent (utilizing the interest rate and mortality table in effect for lump sum
distributions under the Retirement Plan immediately prior to the Effective Date, and determined assuming benefit commencement as of
the Date of Termination) of the benefit under the Retirement Plans that the Executive would receive if the Executive’s
employment continued for three years after the Date of Termination, assuming for this purpose that all accrued benefits are fully
vested and assuming that the Executive’s compensation in each of the three years is the Annual Base Salary and Highest Annual
Bonus, over (ii) the lump sum actuarial equivalent (determined in the same manner as in clause (i) above) of the Executive’s
actual benefit (paid or payable), if any, under

-8-

the Retirement
Plans as of the Date of Termination without regard to such three years’ compensation and service;

   
  (2) for three years after the Executive’s Date of Termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the
terms of the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company shall continue welfare benefits to the Executive and/or the
Executive’s family at least equal to those that would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs,
practices and policies described in Section 3(b)(4) if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated or, if more favorable
to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and the
Affiliated Companies and their families, provided, however, that, if the Executive becomes reemployed with another
employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer provided plan, the medical and other
welfare benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of
eligibility. For purposes of determining the Executive’s eligibility for retiree benefits pursuant to such welfare plans,
practices, programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have remained employed until three years after the Date of
Termination, provided, however, that the Executive’s commencement of such retiree benefits shall not be any sooner than
the Executive’s earliest retirement date under the Retirement Plans;

   
  (3) the Company shall, at its sole expense as incurred, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and
provider of which shall be selected by the Executive in the Executive’s sole discretion; and

   
  (4) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other
amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or that the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or
practice or contract or agreement of the Company and the Affiliated Companies (such other amounts and benefits, the “Other
Benefits”).

        
  (b) Death. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s death during
the Employment Period, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive’s legal representatives under this
Agreement, except for payment of the Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of the Other Benefits. The Accrued
Obligations shall be paid to the Executive’s estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the
Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of the Other Benefits, the term “Other Benefits” as utilized in this
Section 5(b) shall include, without limitation, and the Executive’s estate and/or beneficiaries shall be entitled to receive,
benefits at least equal to the most favorable benefits provided by the Company and the Affiliated Companies

to the estates and beneficiaries of peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies under such plans, programs,
practices and policies relating to death benefits, if any, as in effect with respect to other peer executives and their
beneficiaries at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
Executive’s estate and/or the Executive’s beneficiaries, as in effect on the date of the Executive’s death with
respect to other peer executives of the Company and the Affiliated Companies and their beneficiaries.

-9-

        
  (c) Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s
Disability during the Employment Period, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement, except
for payment of the Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of the Other Benefits. The Accrued Obligations shall be
paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of the Other
Benefits, the term “Other Benefits” as utilized in this Section 5(c) shall include, and the Executive shall be entitled
after the Disability Effective Date to receive, disability and other benefits at least equal to the most favorable of those
generally provided by the Company and the Affiliated Companies to disabled executives and/or their families in accordance with such
plans, programs, practices and policies relating to disability, if any, as in effect generally with respect to other peer executives
and their families at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the
Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as in effect at any time thereafter generally with respect to other peer executives of
the Company and the Affiliated Companies and their families.

        
  (d) Cause; Other Than for Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause during
the Employment Period, the Company shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement, except for payment to
the Executive of (1) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination, (2) the amount of any compensation
previously deferred by the Executive, and (3) the Other Benefits, in each case, to the extent theretofore unpaid. If the Executive
voluntarily terminates employment during the Employment Period, excluding a termination for Good Reason, the Company shall have no
further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement, except for payment of the Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or
provision of the Other Benefits. In such case, all the Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum in cash
within 30 days of the Date of Termination.

        
  Section 6. Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit the
Executive’s continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company or the
Affiliated Companies and for which the Executive may qualify, nor, subject to Section 11(f), shall anything herein limit or
otherwise affect such rights as the Executive may have under any other contract or agreement with the Company or the Affiliated
Companies. Amounts that are vested benefits or that the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice
or program of or any contract or agreement with the Company or the Affiliated Companies at or subsequent to the Date of Termination
shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or agreement, except as explicitly modified

 by this Agreement.

       
   Section 7. Full Settlement. The Company’s obligation to make the payments provided for in this
Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense, or other claim, right or action that the Company may have against the Executive or others. In no event shall the Executive
be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under
any of the provisions of this Agreement, and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Executive obtains other
employment. The Company agrees to pay as incurred, to the full extent permitted by law, all legal fees and expenses that the
Executive may

-10-

reasonably incur as a result of any contest
(regardless of the outcome thereof) by the Company, the Executive or others of the validity or enforceability of, or liability
under, any provision of this Agreement or any guarantee of performance thereof (including as a result of any contest by the
Executive about the amount of any payment pursuant to this Agreement), plus, in each case, interest on any delayed payment at the
applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”).

       
   Section 8. Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

       
   (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any
payment or distribution by the Company or the Affiliated Companies to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether paid or payable
or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise but determined without regard to any additional
payments required under this Section 8) (the “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of
the Code, or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with
any such interest and penalties, collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an
additional payment (the “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including
any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and
penalties imposed with respect thereto) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the
Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments.

        
  (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 8(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 8,
including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized
in arriving at such determination, shall be made by KPMG Peat Marwick or such other certified public accounting firm as may be
designated by the Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) that shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the
Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment or such
earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the
individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting
firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm
hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 8, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting
Firm’s determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result
of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm
hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments that will not have been made by the Company should have been made (the
“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event the Company exhausts its
remedies pursuant to Section 8(c) and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm
shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to
or for the benefit of the Executive.

-11-

       
   (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if
successful, would require the payment by the Company of the Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as
practicable but no later than 10 business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the
Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such claim
prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which the Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such
shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the
Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that the Company desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall:

   
  (1) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim,

   
  (2) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from
time to time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably
selected by the Company,

   
  (3) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order effectively to contest such claim, and

   
  (4) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim;

provided, however, that the Company
shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such
contest, and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including
interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without
limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such
contest, and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with
the applicable taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax
claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to
prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more
appellate courts, as the Company shall determine; provided, however, that, if the Company directs the Executive to pay
such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis,
and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or
penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such
advance; and provided, further, that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the
taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested
amount. Furthermore, the Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which the Gross-Up Payment
would be payable hereunder, and the

-12-

Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest,
as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority.

        
  (d) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 8(c), the
Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s
complying with the requirements of Section 8(c)) promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any
interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by
the Company pursuant to Section 8(c), a determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to
such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the
expiration of 30 days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be

repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

        
  Section 9. Confidential Information. The Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of
the Company all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or the Affiliated Companies, and their
respective businesses, which information, knowledge or data shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s
employment by the Company or the Affiliated Companies and which information, knowledge or data shall not be or become public
knowledge (other than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation of this Agreement). After
termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the
Company or as may otherwise be required by law or legal process, communicate or divulge any such information, knowledge or data to
anyone other than the Company and those persons designated by the Company. In no event shall an asserted violation of the provisions
of this Section 9 constitute a basis for deferring or withholding any amounts otherwise payable to the Executive under this
