EX-101 INSTANCE DOCUMENT

AGCO International GmbH is a limited liability company, duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Switzerland (company number: CH-290.4.015.865-8; "Employer"). The Employer is a part of the AGCO-group of companies ("Group"), of which AGCO Corporation ("AGCO"), a Delaware company headquartered in Duluth, Georgia/USA, is the ultimate parent company and listed at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: AGCO).

Dr. Richard Robinson Smith (aka Dr. Rob Smith), a citizen of Germany and the USA, born on 13 June 1965, is an executive with his ordinary residence currently in Germany ("Employee").

Since the Employee shall be based in Switzerland, the Employer and the Employee desire to enter into this Swiss law governed employment agreement, to record the terms and conditions for the provision of advice and services by the Employee for and on behalf of the Employer and the Group within Switzerland and in certain countries of the world, upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

This Agreement will only become effective and binding upon the Parties, if all of the following conditions precedent (qualifying as "aufschiebende Bedingungen" in the sense of Article 151 et seq. of the Swiss Code of Obligations) are satisfied in full:

The Employee obtains a valid residence permit and work permit, if required, for Switzerland allowing him to reside and to start working for Employer in Switzerland; and

the Employee is not or no longer bound by any obligations, legal or otherwise, towards his former employer or employers or other third parties, which would adversely affect the Employee's ability to provide his services under the Agreement.

The Employee, with the support of the Employer as may be required, shall apply for the necessary residence permit and work permit, if required, for the Employee; whereby the Employer does not represent or warrant the receipt or a specific time of receipt, if any, of such permit(s).

To the extent permitted by law, any liability of Employer is expressly excluded in case the conditions in Section 1.1 are not or not timely satisfied.

Provided that the Agreement becomes effective pursuant to Section 1 hereof, the employment shall commence as soon as possible following 30 April 2013 ("Commencement Date").

Provided that the Agreement becomes effective pursuant to Section 1 hereof and in case the Employee will, for any reason, start to work for Employer only at a date after 02 May 2013, the Commencement Date shall be the first actual day of work of Employee.

The Employee shall be appointed and employed by the Employer as of the Commencement Date, in the position of Senior Vice President and General Manager EAME and managing officer of Employer ("Geschäftsführer"). The Employee will report to Mr. Martin Richenhagen, Chairman, President and CEO of AGCO, or to those executive officers who are assigned to this position by the Board of Directors of AGCO from time to time. At all times during the term of this Agreement, the Employee shall perform those duties and exercise such powers which are from time to time assigned to or vested in the Employee by the Board of Directors of AGCO or the CEO of AGCO, the executive officer to whom the Employee reports or that are listed in the relevant work description or in internal regulations of the Employer.

During the term of employment the Employee shall, if so requested, and without additional compensation, accept appointment as a member of the board of directors or as a managing officer of the Employer and/or any of its subsidiary, sister, and parent companies and affiliates within the Group.

The Employee's principal place of work shall be at the Employer's offices or such other premises as the Employer may use from time to time. Notwithstanding the principal place of work, the Employee's duties require the Employee to regularly travel on business for the Employer and/or the Group to other locations both in Switzerland and abroad. Such travel may include, when reasonably required, weekends and public holidays without additional compensation or grant of extra time off.

The base salary shall be CHF 550,000.00 (five hundred fifty thousand Swiss Francs) gross p.a. (pro rata), payable by wire transfer and in Swiss Francs only, in 12 equal monthly installments one month in arrears on or around the last calendar day in the respective month ("Base Salary"). No adjustments to the Base Salary will be made for changes in exchange rates.

The Base Salary shall be the remuneration for regular working time, as is customary given the Employee's high-level management position, overtime ("Überstunden"), excess-overtime ("Überzeit"), and any other time used for service(s) rendered by the Employee for the Employer and/or the Group.

The Employer shall deduct from the Base Salary all social security charges, the pension plan contributions of the Employee pursuant to Section 12 and any other charges and/or taxes due under applicable law.

The Employer shall annually consider, for the first time as per 01 April 2014, performance based merit increases in the Base Salary. The performance based merit increase of the Base Salary will be at the sole discretion of the Employer in compliance with the Employer's and/or the Group's corporate governance and compensation guidelines and policies.

For the sake of clarity and subject to the applicable tax laws, the Employee’s remuneration, short and long term incentive compensation ("Gratifikation"), and all other payments received by the Employee as per this Employment Agreement constitute income from Switzerland.

Provided that the Employee has duly performed and continues to duly perform his obligations pursuant to this Agreement to the satisfaction of the Employer, the Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Employer's or the Group's Management Incentive Plan or similar ("Plan") at a target level of 90% of the Base Salary, subject to the terms and conditions of such Plan as communicated by Employer or any Plan administrator from time to time. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Employer or any Plan administrator may unilaterally amend or change the Plan from time to time or discontinue any Plan at any time, subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Any incentive or bonus payment (as a "Gratifikation" pursuant to Article 322d of the Swiss Code of Obligations) under such Plan shall be paid-out at such times as such payments are customarily made by the Employer or any Plan administrator. The Employer shall deduct from any incentive or bonus payment under such Plan the social security charges and any other charges and/or taxes due under applicable law.

As an exception to Section 5.1.1 and for the year 2013 only, a pro rata bonus payment as of the Commencement Date ("Gratifikation" pursuant to Article 322d of the Swiss Code of Obligations) at a target level of 90% of the Base Salary p.a. or actual attainment (if such attainment is greater than the target level) pursuant to the Incentive Compensation Plan 2013 is guaranteed to the Employee, provided that the Employee is still employed by the end of 2013 and neither the Employer nor the Employee has given notice before the end of 2013 pursuant to Section 15.1. For the avoidance of doubt and provided that a notice of termination of one Party pursuant to Section 15.1 has been received by the other Party before 01 January 2014, the Parties acknowledge and agree that no payment pursuant to this Section 5.1.2 is owed in case the Severance Payment pursuant to Section 17 should become due.

Provided that the Employee has duly performed and continues to duly perform his obligations pursuant to this Agreement to the satisfaction of the Employer and in addition to the Employer's or the Group's Plan as per Section 5.1.1, the Employee shall be entitled to participate in the Employer's or the Group's Long Term Incentive Plan or similar ("Long Term Plan"), subject to the terms and conditions of such Long Term Plan as communicated by Employer or any Long Term Plan administrator from time to time. At present, the Long Term Plan is the AGCO Corporation 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as restated and amended). The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Employer or any Long Term Plan administrator may unilaterally amend or change the Long Term Plan from time to time or discontinue any Long Term Plan at any time, subject to the terms and conditions thereof. Any incentive or bonus payment (as a "Gratifikation" pursuant to Article 322d of the Swiss Code of Obligations) under such Long Term Plan shall be paid-out at such times as such payments are customarily made by the Employer or any Long Term Plan administrator under the Long Term Plan. The Employer shall deduct from any incentive or bonus payment under such Long Term Plan the social security charges and any other charges and/or taxes due under applicable law.

At present, but subject to the right of Employer or any Long Term Plan administrator to unilaterally amend, change or discontinue the Long Term Plan as per Section 5.2.1, the Employee shall receive either determined or determinable pro rata grants under running performance cycles, as outlined in the exhaustive list in Sections 5.3.3 through 5.3.5 hereof, under the different award types currently in place under the Long Term Plan.

For the purpose of this Section 12.2.3, however, the accumulated account balance (with returns) of the Employee under the Capital Plan shall vest over 10 years at 1/10^th per year of service (pro rata). The accumulated account balance (with returns) will be fully vested in the calendar month, in which the Employee reaches the 58^th year of one's life; i.e., in June 2023 at the earliest or at such later date depending on the Commencement Date. Provided that, the Employee should

For the avoidance of doubt and provided that the Employee is still employed on the date a Change in Control (as defined in Section 16.1) in and limited to AGCO occurs, the Employee is under no obligation to pay a sum under Section 12.2.3 and shall, irrespective of Section 12.2.3, become fully vested in the amount of the accumulated account balance under the Capital Plan (with returns) as of the date a Change in Control (as defined Section 16.1) in and limited to AGCO occurs.

change in the effective control of AGCO is presumed (which presumption may be rebutted by the Compensation Committee of the board of AGCO) to occur on the date that either: any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12 month period ending on the date

a majority of members of the board of AGCO is replaced during any 12 month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of AGCO's board prior to the date of the appointment or election of such new directors; or

a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of AGCO's assets occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12 month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from AGCO that have a total fair market value equal to forty percent (40%) or more of the total fair market value of all of the assets of AGCO immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions unless the assets are transferred to: a stockholder of AGCO (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to its stock; an entity, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly by AGCO; a person, or more than one person acting as a group, that owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all of the outstanding stock of AGCO; or an entity, at least fifty percent (50%) of the total value or voting power is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person, or more than one person acting as a group, that owns directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all of the outstanding stock of AGCO.

During two years following a Change in Control (as defined in Section 16.1), the Employee's position (including offices, titles and reporting requirements), duties and responsibilities shall not be reduced without the prior written consent of the Employee. In addition, the Employee shall not be required to work at another principal place of work other than the principal place of work at which the Employee was based at the time of the Change in Control.

During two years following a Change in Control (as defined in Section 16.1), the Employee's compensation, including Base Salary, incentive or bonus compensation opportunity, pension and other benefits shall not be reduced nor modified

Subject to Section 17.3 and provided that the payment of a severance is, be it in whole or in part, permissible under any applicable law if and when due, the Employee shall be entitled to a severance payment ("Severance Payment") unrelated to a Change in Control (as defined in Section 16.1) in case the Employer, after the end of the first year of service, terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 15.1 or in case the

a sum in the amount of the Base Salary for one year as per Section 4.1 at the rate in effect on the last day of the employment relationship; plus

a sum in the amount of the pro rata portion of an incentive or bonus payment, to which the Employee would have been entitled for the year of termination or a longer relevant period of time had the Employee remained employed for the entire year or the longer relevant period time, subject to the terms of the relevant incentive plans and the agreements thereunder.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Severance Payment is an extraordinary payment, which, given its nature, is no part of the Employee's salary and is not pensionable. The Employer shall deduct from the Severance Payment the social security charges and any other charges and/or taxes due under applicable law.

The part of the Severance Payment in the amount of the Base Salary as per Section 17.1.1(i) will become due in three equal installments. The first installment will be due with the last salary payment prior to the lapse of the notice period, the second installment three months and the third installment six months after the last salary payment was due. The part of the Severance Payment in the amount of a pro rata portion of an incentive or bonus payment as per Section 17.1.1(ii) will become due at such time as such payments are customarily made by the Employer or any Plan administrator. At the Employer's sole discretion, Employer may, but must not, make early payments of any part of the Severance Payment with the effect of full discharge. In case of late payment of any part of the Severance Payment, no interest of any kind will accrue.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Severance Payment will be owed under this Section 17.1

if the Employer terminates the Employment for just cause ("wichtige Gründe") pursuant to Article 337 Swiss Code of Obligations; or

if the Employee terminates the Agreement of his own free will as per Section 15.1 without Good Reason (as defined in Section 17.3.5); or

if the Agreement lapses because the Employee reaches the 65^th year of one's life as per Section 15.2.

Subject to Section 17.3 and provided that the payment of a severance is, be it in whole or in part, permissible under any applicable law if and when due, the Employee shall be entitled to a severance payment in case the Employer, after the end of the first year of service, terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 15.1 within two years after a Change in Control (as defined in Section 16.1) or in case the Employee terminates the Agreement for Good Reason (as defined in Section 17.3.5) within two years after a

a sum in the amount of two times the yearly Base Salary as per Section 4.1 at the rate in effect on the last day of the employment relationship; plus

a sum in the amount of the pro rata portion of an incentive or bonus payment, to which the Employee would have been entitled for the year of termination or a longer relevant period of time had the Employee remained employed for the entire year or the longer relevant period time, subject to the terms of the relevant incentive plans and the agreements thereunder.

a sum in the amount equal to the three year average of the awards received by the Employee during the prior two completed years and the current year's trend (based upon results through the month most recently complete prior to the termination, extrapolated for the complete year) multiplied by two.

In addition to the elements of the Change in Control-Severance Payment in Section 17.2.1, the Employer shall continue the Employee's group life insurance and group health coverage for a period of two years, subject to the same payments by the Employee that the Employee was required to make prior to termination. The Employer is entitled to modify life insurance and health benefits provided that such modifications are applicable to other similar employees of Employer. To the extent that coverage of the Employee after termination is no longer possible under the group life insurance and/or group health coverage, Employer shall pay the Employee, not less frequently than monthly, the reasonable cost that Employee must incur to obtain the same benefits or reasonably similar benefits otherwise.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Change in Control-Severance Payment is an extraordinary payment, which, given its nature, is no part of the Employee's salary and is not pensionable. The Employer shall deduct from the Change in Control-Severance Payment the social security charges and any other charges and/or taxes due under applicable law.

The Change in Control-Severance Payment as per Section 17.2.1 will become due with the end of the employment relationship and in all events within 30 days after the end of the employment relationship. In case of late payment of any part of the Change in Control-Severance Payment, no interest of any kind will accrue.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Change in Control-Severance Payment will be owed under this Section 17.2

if the Employer terminates the employment for just cause ("wichtige Gründe") pursuant to Article 337 Swiss Code of Obligations; or

if the Employee terminates the Agreement of his own free will as per Section 15.1 without Good Reason (as defined in Section 17.3.5); or

if the Agreement lapses because the Employee reaches the 65^th year of one's life as per Section 15.2.

Notwithstanding Section 17.1 and/or Section 17.2, a Severance Payment under Section 17.1 or a Change in Control-Severance Payment under Section 17.2 is only owed, if, when due pursuant to Section 17.1 or 17.2, the payment of a Severance Payment or a Change in Control-Severance Payment (or any portion thereof) is not, be it in whole or in part, prohibited by any applicable law.

In case a Severance Payment under Section 17.1 should become due, the Employee is under no obligation to seek employment elsewhere. However, if the Employee will start other gainful employment or will provide remunerated, self-employed services within one year after the end of the employment relationship, the Employee must promptly notify the Employer. Any such earnings of the Employee for services provided within one year after the end of the employment relationship (after social security contributions, but pre-income tax and irrespective of the issue, if and when Employee receives actual payment) entitle the Employer to reduce any outstanding portion of the Severance Payment correspondingly or, as the case may be, obligate the Employee to reimburse the Employer.

In case a Change in Control-Severance Payment under Section 17.2 should become due, the Employee is required to mitigate the Change in Control-Severance Payment by seeking other gainful employment or by providing remunerated, self-employed services. The Employee must promptly notify the Employer in the event other employment is obtained or remunerated self-employed services are provided. Any such earnings of the Employee for services provided within one year after the end of the employment relationship (after social security contributions, but pre-income tax and irrespective of the issue, if and when Employee receives actual payment) entitle the Employer to reduce any outstanding portion of the Severance Payment correspondingly or, as the case may be, obligate the Employee to reimburse the Employer.

Without limiting any of the rights of Employer under Sections 0 through 23, the Employer may cease, upon written notification to the Employee, to make any further payments and to provide any other benefits under Sections 17.1 or 17.2 in the event the Employee breaches any of Employee's obligations under Sections 0 and/or 22.

For the purposes of this Section 17, the Employee shall have good reason ("Good Reason") to terminate his employment hereunder upon certain circumstances, including but not limited to

a substantial reduction in the Employee's aggregate Base Salary and annual incentive compensation taken as a whole, excluding any reductions caused by the performance of the Employer and/or AGCO or the Employee, including but not limited to, the failure by the Employer and/or AGCO to achieve performance targets established from time to time by the Board of Directors of AGCO and/or under the Incentive Plan or Long Term Incentive Plan or from below budget performance by the Employer and/or AGCO; or

the Employer's failure to make payments of the Base Salary and incentive compensation, but only upon notice of such failure given by the Employee within 90 days of the initial existence of the failure and the subsequent failure of the Employer to cure the non-payment within thirty 30 days of such notice.

The Agreement will lapse upon the death of the Employee.

In case the death of the Employee occurs at a point in time, when neither Party has given notice of termination pursuant to Section 15.1, the Employer shall continue to pay, to the estate using the same wire transfer details, the Base Salary at the rate in effect on the day of death for the month, in which death occurred, plus for three additional months, even if the employment would have lapsed before under Section 15.2 at an earlier time and irrespective of any social security or life insurance payments. In addition, the Employer shall pay all incentive or bonus payments accrued or accruable through the end of the month in which the death occurred pursuant to the applicable terms and conditions for such incentive or bonus payments. The Base Salary payments under this Section 18.2 will become due on the days, in which the Base Salary payments would have been due if no death had occurred. Any incentive or bonus payments will become due at such times as such payments are customarily made by the Employer.

In case the death of the Employee occurs after Employee has terminated the Agreement pursuant to the Section 15.1, the Employer shall continue to pay, to the estate using the same wire transfer details, the Base Salary at the rate in effect on the day of death for the month, in which death occurred, plus for three additional months. No incentive or bonus payments will be owed. The Base Salary payments under this Section 18.3 will become due on the days, in which the Base Salary payments would have been due if no death had occurred.

As used herein, "Confidential Information" shall include, but not be limited to, all technical, business and trade information of the Employer and/or any of its subsidiary, sister, and parent companies and affiliates of the Group, and of any third party (such as non-Group business partners), which is of a confidential, trade secret and/or proprietary character and which is either developed by the Employee (alone or with others) or to which the Employee has had access during his employment hereunder.

The Employee shall be prohibited at any time during the continuance of his employment hereunder or at any time thereafter to directly or indirectly disseminate, disclose, and/or use for his own purposes or for any purposes other than those of the Employer or the Group, or through any failure to exercise due care and diligence cause any unauthorized disclosure of, Confidential Information, except

as may be required by law;

in the proper performance of the Employee's duties; or

as authorized in writing by the Employer.
