(a) Automatic Transfer Employees. Except as set forth in Section 2.1(b), all Spinco Employees shall be employees of a Spinco Entity immediately prior to the Business Transfer Time.

(b) Hong Kong Spinco Employees. No fewer than 15 days prior to the Business Transfer Time, Guangzhou Acco Trading Company Limited shall extend written offers of employment (the “Offers”) to each Spinco Employee whose employment is located in Hong Kong or who is employed by an Affiliate of Parent based in Hong Kong (any such employee a “Hong Kong Spinco Employee”), which Offers shall be conditioned upon the occurrence of the Effective Time. The Offers shall provide for compensation, benefits and terms of employment at least as favorable as those in effect immediately prior to the Business Transfer Time. For the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with Section 2.2, the Spinco Group shall be solely responsible for all Liabilities resulting from the termination or alleged termination of any Hong Kong Spinco Employee’s employment that occurs as a result of, in connection with or following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, including Liabilities arising out of the failure of Guangzhou Acco Trading Company Limited to make an Offer to, or continue the employment of, a Hong Kong Spinco Employee or a Hong Kong Spinco Employee’s refusal to accept an Offer from, or commence employment with, Guangzhou Acco Trading Company Limited.

2.2 Severance. A Spinco Employee shall not be deemed to have terminated employment for purposes of determining eligibility for severance benefits in connection with or in anticipation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements. The Spinco Group shall be solely responsible for all Liabilities in respect of all costs

-4-

arising out of payments and benefits relating to the termination or alleged termination of any Spinco Employee’s employment that occurs as a result of, in connection with or following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements, including any amounts required to be paid (including any payroll or other taxes), and the costs of providing benefits, under any applicable severance, separation, redundancy, termination or similar plan, program, practice, contract, agreement, Law or regulation (such benefits to include any medical or other welfare benefits, outplacement benefits, accrued vacation and taxes). Except as provided in the second sentence of Section 2.4, the Spinco Group shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent with respect to any claims by a Spinco Employee that such Spinco Employee is entitled to severance benefits under a Parent severance plan.

2.3 Assumption and Retention of Liabilities.

(a) From and after the Business Transfer Time, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Spinco Group shall assume or retain, as applicable, and the Spinco Group hereby agrees to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge, in due course in full, (i) all Spinco Benefit Plans and all Liabilities under all Spinco Benefit Plans, (ii) all Liabilities with respect to the employment or termination of employment of all Spinco Employees, (iii) all Liabilities with respect to (A) the engagement or termination of services of any individual who is, or was, an independent contractor (including any temporary service worker, consultant, freelancer, on-call worker, incidental worker, or other nonpayroll worker of Spinco or any Spinco Entity, who is not an employee of Spinco or a Spinco Entity under applicable Laws) or in any other non-employment, or retainer arrangement, or relationship with Spinco or a Spinco Entity, or (B) the engagement or termination of services of any agency employee, leased employee, or other individual employed by any person other than Spinco or a Spinco Entity (and for the avoidance of doubt, no such individual under this clause (iii) shall be a “Spinco Employee” under this Agreement) and (iv) any other Liabilities expressly assigned to the Spinco Group under this Agreement.

(b) The Parties agree that to the extent provided under the applicable Laws of certain foreign jurisdictions, (i) any employment agreements between Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any non-U.S. Spinco Employee, on the other hand, and (ii) any collective bargaining agreements applicable to the non-U.S. Spinco Employees in such jurisdictions, will in each case have effect after the Business Transfer Time as if originally made between Spinco, or the applicable foreign Spinco Entity employing such individual, and the other parties to such employment agreement or collective bargaining agreement.

Effective as of the Effective Time, (a) Spinco and each other Spinco Entity shall cease to be a Participating Company in any Parent Benefit Plan, other than any Spinco Benefit Plan, (b) the Spinco Employees shall cease to accrue further benefits and shall cease to be active participants in the Parent Benefit Plans (other than any Spinco Benefit Plan), and (c) the Parties shall take all necessary action before the Effective Time to effectuate the foregoing. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, Parent shall indemnify and hold Spinco, each Spinco Entity

and the Company harmless for any Liability under any Parent Benefit Plan (other than any Spinco Benefit Plan) arising with respect to service (and the termination of service) prior to the Business Transfer Time of Spinco Employees and of individuals described in Section 2.3(a)(iii) of this Agreement; provided, however, that such indemnification obligation shall not apply to the extent (and only to the extent) that any such Liability results from action taken by any Spinco Entity or the Company after the Business Transfer Time. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification obligation set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply with respect to Liabilities for compensation or benefits (including any obligations under a CBA) that accrue, are paid or are provided on or after the Business Transfer Time even if the levels of, or eligibility for, compensation or benefits are based on service provided prior to the Business Transfer Time.

2.5 Spinco Workers Compensation Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, the treatment of any Spinco Workers Compensation Claims shall be governed by the terms of the Separation Agreement.

ARTICLE III

TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT FOR SPINCO EMPLOYEES

3.2 Levels of Compensation and Benefits for Non-Bargained Spinco Employees.

(a) Spinco and the Company shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Spinco Employee who is not covered by a CBA (i) until the one year anniversary of the Business Transfer Time, an annual rate of base salary, or hourly wage rate for hourly employees, that is not less than the annual rate of base salary or hourly wage rate, as the case may be, as was provided to such Spinco Employee immediately before the Business Transfer Time (or if greater, such base compensation approved in the ordinary course, but not yet implemented, by Parent), (ii) for 2012, (A) subject to Section 4.2 of this Agreement, a Company annual cash incentive opportunity at Parent target payment levels in effect for such Spinco Employee immediately before the Business Transfer Time, and (B) a Company equity compensation plan award opportunity not less favorable to the Spinco Employee than is then generally available to other similarly situated employees of the Company in 2012, and (iii) all other generally available compensation (including without limitation, following the periods described in clauses (i) and (ii), base compensation, annual cash incentive opportunity, and equity compensation plan participation), benefits, and terms of employment that, subject to ordinary cyclical adjustments generally applicable to similarly situated employees of the Company, are comparable to such compensation, benefits and terms of employment provided to similarly situated employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

-6-

(b) Immediately following the Effective Time, each Spinco Employee who is not covered by a CBA shall participate in the Company’s Executive Severance Plan or the Company’s Severance Plan (together, the “Company Severance Plans”), as applicable, on the same basis as other similarly situated Company employees, and the Company shall provide or shall cause to be provided to any such Spinco Employee whose employment terminates during the twelve month period following the Effective Time as a result of redundancies or other similar consequences in connection with the integration of Spinco and the Company following the Effective Time, severance rights and benefits equivalent to the severance rights and benefits under such plans as would apply to such Spinco Employee if the Effective Time were construed to be a “Change of Control” under the Company Severance Plans. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, with respect to any Spinco Employee with a Parent retention agreement entered into on or before October 3, 2011 that provides for severance benefits, in the event of a termination of such Spinco Employee’s employment during the twelve month period following the Effective Time that is involuntary (including a termination by such Spinco Employee for good reason, if applicable) or results from disability, such Spinco Employee’s severance benefits shall be equal to the greater of (i) the severance benefits provided for under the terms of such retention agreement, and (ii) the severance benefits determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. The Company shall take into account for purposes of calculating a Spinco Employee’s severance benefits under the applicable Company Severance Plan, such Spinco Employee’s service with Parent and its Affiliates prior to the Business Transfer Time and Spinco and its Affiliates following the Business Transfer Time as service for the Company. After October 3, 2011, Parent shall not enter into any additional retention agreements with Spinco Employees that provide for severance benefits that are contrary to the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 3.2(b).

(c) In addition to the foregoing, the Spinco Group shall comply with applicable Laws regarding compensation and benefits of the Spinco Employees who are not covered by a CBA.

For all purposes (including vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under the employee benefit plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including Spinco and its Subsidiaries) providing benefits to any Spinco Employees after the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), each Spinco Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with Parent, Spinco and their Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, to the same extent as such Spinco Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar Parent Benefit Plan in which such Spinco Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time, provided that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan or to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) each Spinco Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent coverage under such New Plan is comparable to a Parent Benefit Plan in which such Spinco Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time, and (b) for purposes of each New Plan

-7-

providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Spinco Employee, Spinco and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents, unless and to the extent the individual, immediately prior to entry in the New Plans, was subject to such conditions under the comparable Parent Benefit Plans.

3.4 Flexible Spending Accounts. The Parties shall take all actions necessary or appropriate so that, effective as of the Effective Time, (a) the account balances under health care flexible spending accounts and under dependent care spending accounts (whether positive or negative) (the “Transferred Account Balances”) under Parent’s health care flexible spending and dependent care spending plan(s) (collectively, the “Parent Flex Plan”) of the Spinco Employees who are participants in the Parent Flex Plan (the “Covered Employees”) shall be transferred to one or more comparable plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company Flex Plan”); (b) the elections, contribution levels and coverage levels of the Covered Employees shall apply under the Company Flex Plan in the same manner as under the Parent Flex Plan; and (c) the Covered Employees shall be reimbursed from the Company Flex Plan for claims incurred at any time during the plan year of the Parent Flex Plan in which the Effective Time occurs submitted to the Company Flex Plan from and after the Effective Time on the same basis and the same terms and conditions as under the Parent Flex Plan. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event within 10 business days after the amount of the Transferred Account Balances is determined, Parent shall pay the Company the net aggregate amount of the Transferred Account Balances, if such amount is positive, and the Company shall pay Parent the net aggregate amount of the Transferred Account Balances, if such amount is negative.

3.5 Earned Vacation. Except for such cases in which Parent is required under applicable Law to pay a Spinco Employee an amount in respect of such Spinco Employee’s accrued vacation as a result of the Spinco Reorganization or the Distribution, the Spinco Group shall honor all unused vacation of each Spinco Employee during the calendar year in which the Business Transfer Time occurs. Thereafter, such Spinco Employees shall be subject to, and commence to accrue benefits under, the vacation, sick leave and other personal time off policies of the Company applicable to the respective Spinco Employee, consistent with Section 3.1, Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 of this Agreement.

accordance with reasonable performance targets established by Parent and in effect immediately prior to the Business Transfer Time, including bonus metrics based upon business goals of the C&OP Business, together with Company-wide business goals that apply to Spinco Employees on a basis no less favorably than they apply to similarly situated employees of the Company. The Company’s obligation to pay any calendar 2012 annual bonus for Spinco Employees under this Section 4.2 shall be subject to (a) the Company’s achieving a threshold level of performance goals established by the Company in respect of bonuses payable to Company employees under the Company’s annual bonus plan for 2012 and (b) approval by the Company’s Board of Directors, which approval may be granted or withheld in accordance with the same procedures and discretion as apply to other similarly situated Company employees in respect of their 2012 annual bonuses.

elected by such Spinco Employees. The rollovers described herein shall comply with applicable Law, and each party shall make all filings and take any actions required of such party under applicable Law in connection therewith.

No Spinco Employee shall accrue any benefit under Parent’s Savings & Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Salaried and Bargained Hourly Employees (the “Parent Bargained 401(k) Plan”) after the Effective Time.

The rollovers described herein shall comply with applicable Law, and each party shall make all filings and take any actions required of such party under applicable Law in connection therewith.

6.5 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation.

(a) Parent shall retain, or cause its Subsidiaries to retain, all Assets and all Liabilities arising out of or relating to Parent’s Deferred Income Plan, Parent’s Retirement Restoration Plan and Parent’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Parent Nonqualified Plans”), and shall make payments to all participants in such plans who are Spinco Employees (“Nonqualified Plan Participants”) in accordance with the terms of the Parent Nonqualified Plans.

(b) Parent and Spinco acknowledge that none of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreements will trigger a payment or distribution of compensation under any of the Parent Nonqualified Plans for any Nonqualified Plan Participant and, consequently, that the payment or distribution of any compensation to which any Nonqualified Plan Participant is entitled under any of the Parent Nonqualified Plans will occur upon such Nonqualified Plan Participant’s separation from service from the Company and its Subsidiaries or at such other time as provided in the applicable Parent Nonqualified Plan or such Spinco Employee’s deferral election.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Business Transfer Time, Parent shall provide to Spinco a list of all Nonqualified Plan Participants.
