The actual Annual Bonus payable in respect of each fiscal year shall be based upon the level of achievement of annual Company and individual performance objectives for such fiscal year, as determined by the Board and communicated to Employee. The Annual Bonus shall be paid to Employee at the same time as annual bonuses are generally payable to other senior executives of the Company, but in no event later than the date which is two and one-half (2¹/2) months following the end of the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates.

     Section 6. “Key-Man” Insurance.

     At any time during the Term of Employment, the Company shall have the right to insure the life of Employee for the sole benefit of the Company, in such amounts, and with such terms, as it may determine. All premiums payable thereon shall be the obligation of the Company. Employee shall have no interest in any such policy, but agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Company in taking out such insurance by submitting to physical examinations, supplying all information reasonably required by the insurance company, and executing all necessary documents, provided that no financial obligation or liability is imposed on Employee by any such documents.

     Section 7. Reimbursement of Business Expenses.

     Employee is authorized to incur reasonable business expenses in carrying out his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and the Company shall promptly reimburse him for all such reasonable business expenses incurred in connection with carrying out the business of the Company, subject to documentation in accordance with the Company’s policy, as in effect from time to time.

     Section 8. Termination of Employment.

     (a) General. The Term of Employment shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) Employee’s death, (ii) a termination by reason of a Disability, (iii) a termination by the Company with or without Cause, or (iv) a termination by Employee with or without Good Reason. Upon any termination of Employee’s employment for any reason, except as may otherwise be requested by the Company in writing and agreed upon in writing by Employee, Employee shall resign from any and all directorships, committee memberships or any other positions Employee holds with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

     (b) Termination Due to Death or Disability. Employee’s employment shall terminate automatically upon his death. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment immediately upon the occurrence of a Disability, such termination to be effective upon Employee’s receipt of written notice of such termination. In the event Employee’s employment is terminated due to his death or Disability, Employee or his estate or his beneficiaries, as the case may be, shall be entitled to:

     (i) The Accrued Obligations;

     (ii) Any unpaid Annual Bonus in respect to any completed fiscal year which has ended prior to the date of such termination, such amount to be paid at the same time it would otherwise be paid to Employee had no such termination occurred; and

     (iii) A pro rata Annual Bonus (determined using the target Annual Bonus if such termination occurs during the fiscal year in which the Commencement Date falls, and thereafter, using the Annual Bonus paid or payable for the immediately prior fiscal year) based on the number of days elapsed from the commencement of such fiscal year through and including the date of such termination, such amount to be paid within five (5) business days of such termination.

Except as set forth in this Section 8(b), following Employee’s termination by reason of his death or Disability, Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

     (c) Termination by the Company for Cause.

     (i) A termination for Cause shall not take effect unless the provisions of this subsection (i) are complied with. Employee shall be given not less than fifteen (15) days written notice by the Board of the intention to terminate his employment for Cause, such notice to state in detail the particular act or acts or failure or failures to act that constitute the grounds on which the proposed termination for Cause is based. Employee shall have fifteen (15) days after the date that such written notice has been given to Employee in which to cure such act or acts or failure or failures to act, to the extent such cure is possible. If he fails to cure such act or acts or failure or failures to act, the termination shall be effective on the date immediately following the expiration of the fifteen (15) day notice period. If cure is not possible, the termination shall be effective on the date of receipt of such notice by Employee. During any cure period provided hereunder, the Board may, in its sole and absolute discretion, prohibit Employee from

entering the premises of the Company (or any subsidiary thereof) or otherwise performing his duties hereunder, and any such prohibition shall in no event constitute an event pursuant to which Employee may terminate employment with Good Reason; provided, however, that if cure is possible, and Employee can reasonably demonstrate to the Board that he desires to enter the premises of the Company (or a subsidiary thereof) or to otherwise perform his duties hereunder solely to attempt to cure the act or acts or failure or failures to act that constitute the grounds on which the proposed termination for Cause is based, Employee shall be permitted to enter the premises of the Company (or a subsidiary thereof) or otherwise to perform his duties hereunder solely for the purposes of curing such act or acts or failure or failures to act.

     (ii) In the event the Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, he shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations. Following such termination of Employee’s employment for Cause, except as set forth in this Section 8(c)(ii), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

     (d) Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment at any time without Cause, effective upon Employee’s receipt of written notice of such termination. In the event Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (other than due to death or Disability), Employee shall be entitled to:

     (i) The Accrued Obligations;

     (ii) Any unpaid Annual Bonus in respect to any completed fiscal year which has ended prior to the date of such termination, such amount to be paid at the same time it would otherwise be paid to Employee had no such termination occurred;

     (iii) A pro rata Annual Bonus (determined using the target Annual Bonus if such termination occurs during the fiscal year in which the Commencement Date falls, and thereafter, using the Annual Bonus paid or payable for the immediately prior fiscal year) based on the number of days elapsed from the commencement of such fiscal year through and including the date of such termination, such amount to be paid within five (5) business days of such termination;

     (iv) An amount equal to the Severance Multiplier multiplied by his then current Base Salary, such amount to be payable over the Severance Term in substantially equal installments, on each regular payroll date of the Company during the Severance Term;

     (v) Continuation of the health benefits provided to Employee and his covered dependants under the Company health plans as of the date of such termination at the same cost applicable to active employees until the earlier of: (A) the expiration of the Severance Term, or (B) the date Employee commences employment with any person or entity and, thus, is eligible for health insurance benefits; provided, however, that as a condition of continuation of such benefits, the Company may require employee to elect to

continue his health insurance pursuant to COBRA (in which case the Company shall pay the cost of such coverage in excess of the cost applicable to active employees); and

     (vi) If such termination occurs within the one (1) year period following a Change in Control, vesting of all Time Vested Awards as of the date of such termination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payments and benefits described in subsections (ii) through (v) above shall immediately cease, and the Company shall have no further obligations to Employee with respect thereto, in the event that Employee breaches any provision of Section 9 hereof.

     Following such termination of Employee’s employment by the Company without Cause, except as set forth in this Section 8(d), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

     (e) Termination by Employee with Good Reason. Employee may terminate his employment with Good Reason by providing the Company fifteen (15) days’ written notice setting forth in reasonable specificity the event that constitutes Good Reason, which written notice, to be effective, must be provided to the Company within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of such event. During such fifteen (15) day notice period, the Company shall have a cure right (if curable), and if not cured within such period, Employee’s termination will be effective upon the date immediately following the expiration of the fifteen (15) day notice period, and Employee shall be entitled to the same payments and benefits as provided in Section 8(d) above for a termination without Cause, it being agreed that Employee’s right to any such payments and benefits shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as described in Section 8(d) above. Following such termination of Employee’s employment by Employee with Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 8(e), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

     (f) Termination by Employee without Good Reason. Employee may terminate his employment without Good Reason by providing the Company thirty (30) days’ written notice of such termination. In the event of a termination of employment by Employee under this Section 8(f), Employee shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations. In the event of termination of Employee’s employment under this Section 8(f), the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice accelerate such date of termination and still have it treated as a termination without Good Reason. Following such termination of Employee’s employment by Employee without Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 8(f), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

     (g) Release. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Company may require that, prior to payment of any amount or provision of any benefit pursuant to subsections (d) or (e) of this Section 8 (other than the Accrued Obligations), Employee shall have executed a general release in favor of the Company and its subsidiaries and related parties in the form as is reasonably required by the Company, and any waiting periods contained in such release shall have expired.

For purposes of this Section 9, references to the Company shall be deemed to include Holdings, CCS and their respective subsidiaries.

     (a) Confidential Information. At any time during and after the end of the Term of Employment, without the prior written consent of the Board, except to the extent required by an order of a court having jurisdiction or under subpoena from an appropriate government agency, in which event, Employee shall, to the extent legally permitted, consult with the Board prior to responding to any such order or subpoena, and except as he in good faith believes necessary or desirable in the performance of his duties hereunder, Employee shall not disclose to or use for the benefit of any third party any confidential or proprietary trade secrets, customer lists, drawings, designs, information regarding product development, marketing plans, sales plans, management organization information, operating policies or manuals, business plans, financial records packaging design or other financial, commercial, business or technical information (i) relating to the Company, or (ii) that the Company may receive belonging to suppliers, customers or others who do business with the Company as a result of his position with the Company (collectively, “Confidential Information”).

In addition, and not in contravention of any of the foregoing, Employee acknowledges that all original works of authorship which are made by him (solely or jointly with others) within the scope of employment and which are protectable by copyright are “works made for hire,” as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17 USC Sec. 101). To the extent allowed by law, this includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” To the extent Employee retains any such moral rights under applicable law, Employee hereby waives such moral rights and consents to any action consistent with the terms of this Agreement with respect to such moral rights, in each case, to the full extent of such applicable law.

     (g) Incentive Plan Construction. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Incentive Plan to the contrary, Employee shall not be considered to have engaged in a “competitive activity” within the meaning of, and for all purposes under, the Incentive Plan unless such activity would constitute a breach of subsections (a), (b) or (c) above.

     Section 10. Breach of Restrictive Covenants.

     Without limiting the remedies available to the Company, Employee acknowledges that a breach of any of the covenants contained in Section 9 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Company or its subsidiaries for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the

event of such a breach or threat thereof, the Company shall be entitled to obtain a temporary restraining order and/or a preliminary or permanent injunction, without the necessity of proving irreparable harm or injury as a result of such breach or threatened breach of Section 9 hereof, restraining Employee from engaging in activities prohibited by Section 9 hereof or such other relief as may be required specifically to enforce any of the covenants in Section 9 hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the Restricted Period shall be tolled during any period of violation of any of the covenants in Section 9(b) or 9(c) hereof and during any other period required for litigation during which the Company seeks to enforce such covenants against Employee or another Person with whom Employee is affiliated if it is ultimately determined that Employee was in breach of such covenants.
