Re: Modification of Termination Provisions of Existing Long Term Incentive Award Agreements
Dear Todd:
This letter agreement relates to outstanding award agreements previously granted to you pursuant to the Companys 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (together with prior plans referenced therein, the 2014 Plan), which award agreements are identified on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the Existing Award Agreements). In order to align the treatment of awards under the Existing Award Agreements in the event of a termination without cause with the treatment thereof under the forms of award agreements adopted by the Compensation Committee for use under the Companys 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the New Award Agreement Forms), the Committee has deemed it advisable and in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to modify the Existing Award Agreements as described herein. It is hereby agreed that each Existing Award Agreement is modified to provide that in the event of a termination without cause, the termination date under each Existing Award Agreement shall be the date upon which your employment agreement with the Company would have expired had you been provided a notice of nonrenewal of such employment agreement by the Company on the date of notice to you of termination of your employment without cause.
On Behalf of the Briggs & Stratton Corporation Compensation Committee |
