Agreement or the other Loan Documents from any of their obligations and liabilities as a “Borrower” or “Guarantor” thereunder. 

10. Miscellaneous. 
 (a)
This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. 

(b) Section and paragraph headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Amendment

 (c) This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New
York. 
 (d) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that this Amendment constitutes a “Loan Document” under the
Existing Financing Agreement. Accordingly, it shall be an Event of Default under the Financing Agreement if (i) any representation or warranty made by a Loan Party under or in connection with this Amendment shall have been untrue, false or
misleading in any material respect when made, or (ii) a Loan Party shall fail to perform or observe any term, covenant or agreement contained in this Amendment. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a
waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agents or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents, except as expressly provided herein. 

(e) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (a) neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries has any claim or cause of action
against any Agent or any Lender (or any of the directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or consultants of any of the foregoing) and (b) the Agents and the Lenders have heretofore properly performed and satisfied in a timely manner all
of their obligations to the Loan Parties, and all of their Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agents and the Lenders wish (and the Loan Parties agree) to eliminate any possibility that any past conditions, acts,
omissions, events or circumstances would impair or otherwise adversely affect any of their rights, interests, security and/or remedies. Accordingly, for and in consideration of the agreements contained in this Amendment and other good and valuable
consideration, each Loan Party (for itself and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and the successors, assigns, heirs and representatives of each of the foregoing) (collectively, the “Releasors”) does, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, hereby fully, finally, unconditionally and irrevocably release, waive and forever discharge the Agents and the Lenders, together with their respective Affiliates and Related Funds, and each of the directors, officers, employees,
agents, attorneys and consultants of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all debts, claims, allegations, obligations, damages, costs, attorneys’ fees, suits, demands, liabilities, actions,
proceedings and causes of action, in each case, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, direct or indirect, and of whatever nature or description, and whether in law or in equity, under contract, tort, statute or otherwise, which any Releasor
has heretofore had or now or hereafter can, shall or may have against any Released Party by reason of any act, omission or thing whatsoever done or omitted to be done, in each case, on or prior to the Amendment Effective Date

  
 5 

 
directly arising out of, connected with or related to this Amendment, the Financing Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, or the
agreements of any Agent or any Lender contained therein, or the possession, use, operation or control of any of the assets of any Loan Party, or the making of any Loans or other advances, or the management of such Loans or other advances or the
Collateral. Each Loan Party represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by any Releasor against any Released Party or of any facts or acts or omissions of any Released Party which on the date hereof would be the basis of a claim by
any Releasor against any Released Party which would not be released hereby. 
 (f) This Amendment, together with the other Loan Documents,
incorporates all negotiations of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is the final expression and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

(g) The Borrowers agree to pay on demand all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment and the other related
agreements, instruments and documents. 
 (h) EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE REVISIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN.

May 3, 2017

Mr. Sean Goodman

Dear Sean:

We are excited about the prospect of you joining the Asbury Automotive team as the Senior Vice President & Chief Financial Officer reporting to me. I am sure you will make significant contributions to our company and look forward to you starting on July 5, 2017. The following sets forth the terms of our offer.

Cash Compensation

Your Target Annualized Cash Compensation will be $1,050,000. This includes a $600,000 base salary and a $450,000 target annual bonus, which is 75% of your base salary.
 
Your 2017 annual bonus will be prorated based on the number of full months worked during the year and the amount of the pay-out will be based on the same bonus criteria applicable to all Dealer Support Center bonus-eligible employees, as determined by the Asbury compensation and human resources committee. The bonus criteria are based on the number of cars sold in the United States in 2017 and Asbury’s EBITDA at each level of sales.

Equity Grant

On your start date, you will be granted an equity award with a value of $600,000, which will be issued in the form of restricted shares of common stock of Asbury that will vest ratably over a three year period. The actual number of shares you will be granted will be based on the closing price of a share of common stock of Asbury on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant. The equity award will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2012 Asbury Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, and in the equity award agreement to be entered into between you and Asbury.

You will be eligible for future grants during the normal and customary equity grant cycle, which has historically occurred in February.

Equity Holding Requirements

You will be required to own Asbury equity valued at three times your base salary.  You will be expected to meet this guideline over the course of five years.  The following shares count towards your ownership for purposes of meeting the requirements: (i) all restricted shares of common stock of Asbury whether vested or unvested, (ii) all performance shares of common stock of Asbury that are earned, even if not vested and (iii) all other shares of common stock of Asbury that are held by you.

Demonstrator Vehicle

You will be provided one demonstrator vehicle for your use. The imputed income associated with the demonstrator vehicle will be taxable to you.
 
Benefits

We offer a competitive benefits package including:  Family Health, Dental and Vision Care, a 401(k) Plan, Employee LTD, Life and STD; details will be provided.

Vacation

In 2017, you will have 2 weeks of vacation. In 2018 and annually thereafter, you will have 4 weeks of paid vacation. 

Relocation

You will receive a lump sum relocation payment of $150,000, which is subject to normal tax withholdings (the “Relocation Payment”). The Relocation Payment is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Asbury Relocation Policy.

Termination Protection

You will receive a severance pay agreement providing base salary and benefits continuation for one year and a pro-rated bonus for the portion of the year you served prior to your termination in the event you are terminated without “cause” or you terminate your employment for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the severance pay agreement).  You must execute a general release to receive the payment of any severance. 

Our offer is contingent upon successful completion of a background check, officer questionnaire, credit check, motor vehicle review and a pre-employment drug test.

In extending this offer of employment, we have relied on your representations that (1) you will not use in any way any confidential information (or any records, documents and similar items) relating to the business of your former employers while employed at Asbury and (2) you have not entered into any agreement or made any commitment to any prior employer or other third party (including, without limitation, non-competition provisions or other restrictive covenants in agreements with prior employers) which would in any way affect or limit your ability to carry out your duties with Asbury. By signing this offer letter, you acknowledge that any inaccuracy in these representations may be grounds for termination.

To signify your acceptance of this position, please sign below and return one copy to me. 

Sincerely,

/s/ Craig T. Monaghan

Craig T. Monaghan
President and CEO
Asbury Automotive Group, Inc.

I hereby signify my acceptance of the position.
