Agreement does not limit the Executive’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies, including to report possible violations of federal law or regulation or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation, or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement does not limit the Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agencies.

Section 4.Non-Admission; Inadmissibility. The execution of this Agreement and the performance of its terms (i) does not constitute an admission by any member of the Company Group of any unlawful tortious action or any violation of any contract or any federal, state or local decisional law, statute, regulation or constitution, and the Company specifically denies any such wrongdoing or violation, and (ii) shall in no way be construed to be an admission of liability by either the Executive or the Company Group with respect to any claims, disputes or controversies between the Executive and the Company Group. This Agreement is entered into solely to resolve all matters related to or arising out of the Executive’s employment with the Company Group and the cessation thereof, and its execution and implementation may not be used as evidence, and shall not be admissible in a subsequent proceeding of any kind, except one alleging a breach of this Agreement.

Section 5.California Civil Code Section 1542. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive has been advised to consult with legal counsel and is familiar with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, a statute that otherwise prohibits the release of unknown claims, which provides as follows:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

The Executive, being aware of said code section, agrees to expressly waive any rights the Executive may have thereunder, as well as under any other statute or common law principles of similar effect. In addition, as to the Executive, this waiver is given in the Executive’s individual capacity and in the Executive’s capacity as a former employee and officer of the Company Group.

The Executive understand that this waiver is not a mere recital, but is a knowing and voluntary waiver of rights and benefits otherwise available, and the Executive agrees that this waiver is an essential and material term of this Agreement, and that without such waiver, the Company would not have entered into this Agreement. In the event that any waiver of the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code provided herein should be judicially determined to be invalid, voidable or unenforceable for any reason, such waiver to that extent shall be severable from the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the invalidity,

voidability or unenforceability thereof shall not affect the validity, effect, enforceability or interpretation of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.Representations. The Executive represents and warrants that the Executive fully understands the terms of this Agreement and that the Executive knowingly and voluntarily, of the Executive’s own free will without any duress or physical or mental impairment of any kind, being fully informed and after due deliberation, accepts its terms and signs the same as the Executive’s own free act. The Executive further represents and warrants that, except as set forth herein, no promises or inducements for this Agreement have been made, and the Executive is entering into this Agreement without any reliance upon any statement or representation by any of the Released Parties or any other person concerning any fact material hereto. The Executive understands that as a result of entering into this Agreement, the Executive will not have the right to assert that the Company or any member of the Company Group unlawfully terminated the Executive’s employment or violated any rights in connection with such employment. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that, but for the execution and non-revocation of this Agreement, the Executive would not be entitled to the Post-Termination Benefits.

(a)    This Agreement is valid only if signed by the Executive and returned to the Company within twenty-one (21) days following the date on which the Executive received this Agreement. The Executive acknowledges that the Executive received this Agreement on the Separation Date. This Agreement must be returned to General Counsel, Albertsons Companies, Inc., 250 Parkcenter Blvd, Boise, ID 83706. The Executive has seven (7) days following the date that the Executive signs this Agreement and returns it to the Company during which to revoke it, by delivering a written notice of revocation to General Counsel, Albertsons Companies, Inc., 250 Parkcenter Blvd, Boise, ID 83706.

If the Executive elects to execute this Agreement before the expiration of the twenty-one (21) day period, the Executive acknowledges that the Executive has chosen, of the Executive’s own free will without any duress, to waive the Executive’s right to the full twenty- one (21) days.

Section 8.Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, canceled, renewed or extended, and the terms and conditions hereof may be waived, only by a written instrument signed by the Parties or, in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any right, power or privilege hereunder, nor any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder.

Section 9.Continuing Obligations. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that Sections 6 and 7 of the Employment Agreement remain in full force and effect and survive the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company in accordance with their terms.

(a)    Confidentiality.

(i)    During the course of the Executive’s employment by the Company and its affiliates, the Executive had access to certain trade secrets and confidential information relating to the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates (the “Protected Parties”) which is not readily available from sources outside the Protected Parties. The confidential and proprietary information and, in any material respect, trade secrets of the Protected Parties are among their most valuable assets, including but not limited to, their customer, supplier and vendor lists, databases, competitive strategies, computer programs, frameworks, or models, their marketing programs, their sales, financial, marketing, training and technical information, their product development (and proprietary product data) and any other information, whether communicated orally, electronically, in writing or in other tangible forms concerning how the Protected Parties create, develop, acquire or maintain their products and marketing plans, target their potential customers and operate their retail and other businesses. The Protected Parties invested, and continue to invest, considerable amounts of time and money in their process, technology, know-how, obtaining and developing the goodwill of their customers, their other external relationships, their data systems and data bases, and all the information described above (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Confidential Information”), and any misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information in any form would irreparably harm the Protected Parties. The Executive acknowledges that such Confidential Information constitutes valuable, highly confidential, special and unique property of the Protected Parties. The Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Protected Parties all Confidential Information relating to the Protected Parties and their businesses, which shall have been obtained by the Executive during the Executive’s employment by the Company or its affiliates and which shall not be or become public knowledge (other than by acts by the Executive or representatives of the Executive in violation of this Agreement). Except as required by law or an order of a court or governmental agency with jurisdiction, the Executive shall not, disclose any

Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity, nor shall the Executive use it in any way, except in the course of the Executive’s employment with, and for the benefit of, the Protected Parties or to enforce any rights or defend any claims hereunder or under any other agreement to which the Executive is a party, provided that such disclosure is relevant to the enforcement of such rights or defense of such claims and is only disclosed in the formal proceedings related thereto. The Executive shall take all reasonable steps to safeguard the Confidential Information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. The Executive understands and agrees that the Executive shall acquire no rights to any such Confidential Information.

(ii)    All files, records, documents, drawings, specifications, data, computer programs, evaluation mechanisms and analytics and similar items relating thereto or to the Business (as defined below), as well as all customer lists, specific customer information, compilations of product research and marketing techniques of the Company and its affiliates, whether prepared by the Executive or otherwise coming into the Executive’s possession, shall remain the exclusive property of the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates, and the Executive shall not remove any such items from the premises of the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates.

(iii)    As requested by the Company and at the Company’s expense, immediately following the Separation Date, the Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates all copies and embodiments, in whatever form, of all Confidential Information in the Executive’s possession or within the Executive’s control (including, but not limited to, memoranda, records, notes, plans, photographs, manuals, notebooks, documentation, program listings, flow charts, magnetic media, disks, diskettes, tapes and all other materials containing any Confidential Information) irrespective of the location or form of such material. If requested by the Company, the Executive shall provide the Company with written confirmation that all such materials have been delivered to the Company as provided herein.

(b)    Non-Solicitation or Hire. For a twenty-four (24) month period following the Separation Date, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit or attempt to solicit or induce, directly or indirectly, (a) any supplier, vendor or service provider to the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates to terminate, reduce or alter negatively its relationship with the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates or in any manner interfere with any agreement or contract between the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates and such supplier, vendor or service provider; or (b) any employee of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates or any person who was an employee of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates during the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the Separation Date to terminate such employee’s employment relationship with the Protected Parties in order, in either case, to enter into a similar relationship with the Executive, or any other person or any entity in competition with the Business.

(c)    Non-Competition. For a twenty-four (24) month period following the Separation Date, the Executive shall not, whether individually, as a director, manager, member, stockholder, partner, owner, employee, consultant or agent of any business, or in any other capacity, other than on behalf of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, organize,

establish, own, operate, manage, control, engage in, participate in, invest in, permit the Executive’s name to be used by, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services for (alone or in association with any person, firm, corporation or business organization), or otherwise assist any person or entity that engages in or owns, invests in, operates, manages or controls any venture or enterprise which engages or proposes to engage in any business conducted by the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates on the Separation Date or within twelve (12) months following the Separation Date in the geographic locations where the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates engage or, to the Executive’s knowledge, propose to engage in such business (the “Business”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Executive from owning for passive investment purposes not intended to circumvent this Agreement, less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded common equity securities of any company engaged in the Business (so long as the Executive has no power to manage, operate, advise, consult with or control the competing enterprise and no power, alone or in conjunction with other affiliated parties, to select a director, manager, general partner, or similar governing official of the competing enterprise other than in connection with the normal and customary voting powers afforded the Executive in connection with any permissible equity ownership).

(d)    Property. The Executive acknowledges that all originals and copies of materials, records and documents generated by the Executive or which came into the Executive’s possession during the Executive’s employment by the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates are the sole property of the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates (“Company Property”). The Executive shall not, at any time, remove, or cause to be removed, from the premises of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates copies of any record, file, memorandum, document, computer related information or equipment, or any other item relating to the business of the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, except in furtherance of the Executive’s duties under this Agreement. Upon the Separation Date, the Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company all copies of Company Property in the Executive’s possession or control.

(e)    Nondisparagement. The Executive agrees that the Executive shall not at any time publish or communicate to any person or entity any “Disparaging” (as defined below) remarks, comments or statements concerning the Company, Cerberus Capital Management, L.P., their parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective present and former members, partners, directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns. “Disparaging” remarks, comments or statements are those that impugn the character, honesty, integrity or morality or business acumen or abilities in connection with any aspect of the operation of business of the individual or entity being disparaged.

Section 11.Section 409A. The Parties intend that the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement either be exempt from Section 409A of the Code, or be provided in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguity herein shall be interpreted so as to be consistent with this intent. The Parties also intend that the Executive shall have a “separation from service” from the Company on the Separation Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided under this Agreement during any calendar year shall not affect in-kind benefits or reimbursements to be provided in any other calendar year, other than an arrangement providing for the reimbursement of medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,

reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by the Executive and, if timely submitted, reimbursement payments shall be promptly made to the Executive following such submission, but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall the Executive be entitled to any reimbursement payments after December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This Section shall only apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result in taxable compensation income to the Executive.

Section 12.Assignability by the Company and the Executive. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned; provided that the Company may assign this Agreement to any successor. In the event of the Executive’s death, all amounts then due and owing to the Executive (including as a result of his death) shall be paid to the legal representative of his estate, or to his beneficiary if specifically designated.

Section 13.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 16.Defend Trade Secrets Act. The Executive acknowledges receipt of the following notice under the Defend Trade Secrets Act: An individual will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret if he/she (a) makes such disclosure in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and such disclosure is made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) such disclosure was made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding if such filing is made under seal.

Section 19.Remedy for Breach. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that the Executive’s breach or threatened breach of any of the restrictions set forth in this

The Executive hereby consents to the grant of an injunction (temporary or otherwise) against the Executive or the entry of any other court order against the Executive prohibiting and enjoining the Executive from violating, or directing the Executive to comply with any provision of this Agreement. The Executive also agrees that such remedies shall be in addition to any and all remedies, including damages, available to the Company against the Executive for such breaches or threatened or attempted breaches. In addition, without limiting the Company’s remedies for any breach of any restriction on the Executive set forth in this Agreement, except as required by law, the Executive shall not be entitled to any Post- Termination Payments if the Executive has breached the covenants applicable to the Executive contained in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, the Executive shall immediately return to the Company any such Post-Termination Payments previously received, upon such a breach, and, in the event of such breach, the Company have no obligation to pay any of the amounts that remain payable by the Company under this Agreement.
