AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this Agreement) is made and entered into as of this 12th day of July, 2017 (the Effective Date), by and between Dorsey Ron McCall (Executive) and Allied Power Management, LLC (the Employer and along with the Executive each individually, a Party and together, the Parties).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Employer and Executive are parties to that certain Employment Agreement dated June 19, 2017 (the Prior Agreement); and
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend certain provisions of the Prior Agreement and restate in its entirety the agreement currently existing between them so that the terms of Executives employment shall be set forth herein below in this Agreement.
AGREEMENTS
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises, and of the mutual covenants and undertakings set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Employment Period. Executives employment hereunder shall commence on the date on which the Employer enters into a power maintenance contract with Exelon Corporation and/or its affiliates with projected revenue of no less than $200 million per year (the Exelon Contract)(the Commencement Date)and, unless earlier terminated hereunder, shall continue for a term of three (3) years (the Initial Term). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, Executives employment under this Agreement will be extended for successive one (1) year periods (each, a Renewal Term), without further action by Executive or the Employer unless earlier terminated hereunder. The Employment Period shall consist of the Initial Term and any Renewal Terms. The date on which the termination of the Employment Period becomes effective is referred to herein as the Termination Date. For the avoidance of doubt, should the Employer not enter into the Exelon Contract on or before September 1, 2017, the Initial Tern will not commence and this Agreement shall be null and void. Simultaneously with the occurrence of the Commencement Date, Executives Consulting Agreement, made on or around the 30th day of May, 2017 with the Employer (the Consulting Agreement), automatically shall terminate.
2. Position: Duties.
(a) Executive shall serve as the Chief Executive Officer of the Employer and shall have the normal duties, responsibilities, functions and authority customarily associated with such office, subject to the power of the governing body of the Employer to reasonably modify such duties, responsibilities, functions and authority so long as such duties, responsibilities, functions and authority, as modified, continue to be customary for a chief operating officer and are in keeping with such position. Executive understands and agrees that he will be required to travel as reasonably required by the business needs of the Employer.

(b) During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote reasonable efforts and substantially all of his business time and attention (except for vacation and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity), to the business and affairs of the Employer; provided, however, that Executive shall be permitted to handle his personal and other affairs so long as such does not materially interfere with his duties and responsibilities for the Employer. Executive shall perform his duties and responsibilities to the Employer hereunder in a loyal, diligent, trustworthy, and businesslike manner. Further, Executive shall not engage in any activity which materially interferes with Executives performance of services hereunder or competes or otherwise conflicts with the interests of the Employer or its Affiliates (as defined below). The Employer acknowledges that Executive currently has an ownership interest in Industrial Metals, Inc., an entity in the business of providing structural steel, and that Executive intends to devote a limited amount of time and attention to the operation of that entity.
3. Base Salary, Bonus and Benefits.
(a) During the Employment Period, Executives base salary shall be $750,000 per annum or such higher rate as the Employer may determine from time to time based upon annual performance and salary reviews to be conducted during the Employment Period (the Base Salary). Executives Base Salary shall be payable by the Employer in accordance with its applicable general payroll practices.
(b) During the Employment Period, Executive shall participate in an annual bonus plan with a target annual bonus award at least equal to Executives Base Salary (the Target Bonus), prorated for any partial calendar year of employment. Any annual bonus due Executive (the Annual Bonus), shall be paid on or after January 1 of the year after the year to which the bonus relates, but prior to March 15 of such year. An award of the Annual Bonus is within the discretion of the Employer; however, should (i) the Employer meet 80% of its budgeted EBITDA (as defined by GAAP and consistent with the Employers practice) for the related year or (ii) the Employer maintain the Exelon Contract with projected revenue of no less than $200 million for such year, Executive shall be entitled to receive no less than the Target Bonus. The Annual Bonus is not considered earned or accrued until paid and, except as otherwise provided herein, Executive must remain employed by the Employer through the date on which the Annual Bonus is paid to be considered eligible to receive such Annual Bonus.
(c) During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate, in all of the Employers employee benefit programs for which senior executive employees of the Employer are generally eligible, subject to the terms and conditions of each such program as may be in effect from time to time.
(d) During the Employment Period, the Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive for all reasonable business-related expenses incurred by him in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement and which are consistent with the Employers policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses, subject to the Employers reasonable requirements in effect from time to time with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses. Executive shall be entitled to first class travel and accommodations and reasonable use of private aircraft to the extent such is business-
2 | Executives Initials |
related and such expense is within the pre-determined expense budget of the Employer. The amount of reimbursable expenses incurred in one year shall not affect the amount of reimbursable expenses in a different calendar year and such reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
(e) The Employers parent, Allied Power Holdings, LLC (the Parent) has established the Series C Profits Interests Plan (the Profits Interests Plan) and pursuant to the Series C Profits Interests Award Agreement dated the Effective Date between the Parent and Allied Management Holdings, LLC (of which Executive is a member) (the Award Agreement), Allied Management Holdings, LLC (i) has been awarded 350 Series C Profits Interests (as defined in the Profits Interests Plan) for the benefit of Executive and (ii) is entitled to participate in the Profits Interest Plan at a level of 35% of the Profits Interests Plan Pool (as defined in the Profit Interests Plan) for the benefit of Executive, subject to the terms and conditions of the Award Agreement. The selection of other participants and their respective levels of participation in the Profits Interests Plan shall be in the sole discretion of the Employer after consultation with Executive. Executive has intervened in and executed concurrently herewith the Award Agreement, a copy of which is being attached hereto as Exhibit A.
(f) All amounts payable to Executive as compensation under this Section 3 shall be subject to all required withholdings by the Employer.
(g) Executive shall be entitled to accrue five (5) weeks of vacation time during each calendar year of the Employment Period, to be taken when the business needs of the Employer so permit, and if not taken in any such calendar year, may be carried over to the next succeeding year; provided, however, that the maximum carryover from any one (1) calendar year to the next shall not exceed an aggregate of five (5) weeks such that at no point will Executive have more than ten (10) weeks of accrued vacation.
4. Termination.
(a) Executives employment shall continue under the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement except as provided herein. Except as provided herein, any termination of the Employment Period by the Employer shall be effective as specified in a written notice (the Termination Notice) from the Employer to Executive. The Termination Notice, to be effective, shall set forth in reasonable detail the reason for termination (and if for Cause, the detail thereof) and the Termination Date.
(i) The Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executives death or Disability (as determined by the governing body of the Employer in its good faith judgment). For purposes of this Agreement, the term Disability means Executives inability to perform the essential functions of his job as stated in his duties under this Agreement with a reasonable accommodation by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.
(ii) The Employment Period may be terminated by the Employer at any time with or without Cause (as defined below).
3 | Executives Initials |
(iii) The Employment Period may be terminated by Executive with Good Reason as set forth below or without Good Reason at any time upon sixty (60) days prior written notice to the Employer; provided, however, that if, thereafter, the Employer determines to terminate Executive prior to the conclusion of such sixty (60) day period, the Termination Date shall be deemed to coincide with the conclusion of such sixty (60) day period.
(iv) A termination with Good Reason shall mean a termination of Executives employment at his initiative following the occurrence, without Executives written consent, of one or more of the following events (except as a result of a prior termination):
(A) | A material reduction in Executives Base Salary; |
(B) | The Employers failure to pay Executive when due his then Base Salary or earned and accrued Annual Bonus; |
(C) | A material diminution in Executives authority, duties or responsibilities; or |
(D) | A material breach by the Employer of its other obligations under this Agreement. |
For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall not be deemed to have occurred unless (i) Executive provides the Employer with written notice of one of the conditions described above within ninety (90) days after the first existence of such condition; (ii) the Employer fails to cure such condition in all material respects within thirty (30) days of its receipt of such notice; and (iii) Executive terminates his employment no later than sixty (60) days after the expiration of such cure period. Upon the occurrence of Good Reason permitting Executive to terminate this Agreement therefor, Executive shall deliver a Termination Notice to the Employer. For purposes of this Agreement, material as used in this Section 4(a)(iv) shall have the meaning ascribed to that term in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended or any interpretive regulations thereof.
(b) If the Employment Period is terminated, irrespective of the reason therefor, then Executive shall be entitled to receive: (i) his then Base Salary through the Termination Date; (ii) payment for any accrued unused vacation through the Termination Date; (iii) any Annual Bonus accrued and determined but not yet paid for a prior completed fiscal year; (iv) any benefits accrued and vested as of the Termination Date under a separate plan or arrangement maintained by the Employer, which shall be paid in accordance with the terms of such plan or arrangement; (v) any claims arising but not yet paid under any welfare benefit plan maintained by the Employer under which Executive was covered as of the Termination Date which shall be processed and paid in accordance with the customary practices of each such benefit plan; and (vi) reimbursement for any allowed expenses (as set forth in Section 3(d)) incurred prior to the Termination Date (collectively, the Accrued Amounts). Except as otherwise provided under the terms of any applicable plan or arrangement, and subject to the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, the Accrued Amounts shall be paid as soon as practicable after the Termination Date, but no later than fifteen (15) days following the Termination Date.
4 | Executives Initials |
(c) If the Employment Period is terminated (i) by the Employer without Cause; or (ii) by Executive for Good Reason, then in addition to the Accrued Amounts, Executive also shall be entitled to receive, as a severance payment, contingent upon his delivering and not withdrawing a release in the form and substance substantially as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto, an amount equal to (w) two (2) times his then Base Salary, (x) two (2) times the higher of (I) his then Target Bonus or (II) the Annual Bonus received by Executive for the year immediately preceding the year in which the Termination Date occurs, (y) a pro-rated portion (based upon the lapsed period in the then employment year) of the Annual Bonus which Executive would have been entitled to for the year in which the termination occurs, if any, and (z) a prorated portion of the amount Executive would have received under the Profits Interests Plan related to each Common Member Distribution occurring after the Termination Date had such termination not occurred, such prorated portion to be paid to Executive following each such post-Termination Date Common Member Distribution to be calculated by multiplying the amount Executive would have received had his Termination not occurred multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days between the Award Date (as defined in the Profits Interests Plan) and the Termination Date and the denominator of which is the number of days between the Award Date and the date of such post-Termination Common Member Distribution (the amounts in clauses (w), (x), (y) and (z) collectively, the Severance Payment). The Base Salary portion of the Severance Payment shall be paid in equal installments on the regularly scheduled payroll distribution dates of the Employer for a period of two years, with the first payment to be made on the first regularly scheduled payroll distribution date of the Employer following the effective date of a release in the form and substance substantially as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto (which effective date shall be no later than sixty (60) days following the Termination Date; provided, however, that if such 60-day period begins in one taxable year and ends in another taxable year, payment shall not be made until the beginning of the second taxable year). The Annual Bonus Payments under clauses (x) and (y) above shall be paid at the regular payment date(s) for each such Annual Bonus, and payment(s) under the Management Incentive Plan shall be made as provided in the Management Incentive Plan. All payments shall be subject to all required withholdings by the Employer and, irrespective of the payment schedule set forth above, to the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement. Other than as expressly provided in this Section 4(c), Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, compensation or benefits following termination of the Employment Period by the Employer without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason.
(d) If the Employment Period is terminated as a result of Executives death or Disability, then in addition to the Accrued Amounts, Executive or his estate, as the case may be, also shall be entitled to receive, contingent upon the delivery of a release in the form and substance substantially as set forth in Exhibit B by Executive or his estate representative, as the case may be, a reduced Severance Payment to be calculated and paid in accordance with Section 4(c) except one (1) times shall be substituted for two (2) times in the computation thereof. All payments shall be subject to all required withholdings by the Employer. Other than as expressly provided in this Section 4(d), neither Executive nor his estate shall be entitled to any other salary, compensation or benefits following termination of the Employment Period as a result of Executives death or Disability.
(e) If the Employment Period is terminated (i) by the Employer for Cause, or (ii) by Executive without Good Reason, Executive shall only be entitled to receive the Accrued Amounts, which amounts shall be paid on or as soon as practicable after the Termination Date, but no later than fifteen (15) days following the Termination Date. Executive shall not be entitled to any salary, compensation, severance or benefits from the Employer thereafter, except as otherwise provided under the terms of any applicable benefit plan or arrangement with respect to which Executive has been a participant.
5 | Executives Initials |
(f) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of Executives rights to salary, bonuses, fringe benefits and other compensation hereunder which accrue after the termination of the Employment Period shall cease upon such the Termination Date, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 or COBRA). The Employer may offset any amounts Executive owes it against any amounts of Severance Payment that it owes Executive.
(g) For purposes of this Agreement, Cause shall mean: (i) the violation by Executive, without the consent or knowledge of the individual he ordinarily reports to or the governing body of the Parent of the Employer, of any law or regulation which materially affects the business of the Employer; (ii) the violation by Executive of any written policy of the Employer, including in the Employers employee handbook, if the Employer has announced that such a violation will be treated generally as a cause for termination; (iii) the embezzlement of the funds of the Employer, its Affiliates or their respective customers or vendors by Executive; (iv) Executives misappropriation or theft of any of the Employers or its Affiliates or their respective customers property, which is not de minimus or the result of an inadvertent mistake; (v) the engaging by Executive in any willful misconduct or gross negligence, which injures or could reasonably be expected to injure in a material respect the reputation, business or business relationships of the Employer or its Affiliates; (vi) Executives conviction of, or plea of guilty to or admission of a felony or actions that constitute a felony; (vii) Executives breach of Sections 5, 6 or 7 of this Agreement due to willful misconduct or gross negligence; (viii) Executives refusal to perform diligently, reasonably and in good faith his lawful duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement, which refusal is a breach of this Agreement and has a material adverse effect on the Employer; or (ix) Executives refusal to comply with the lawful and reasonable written direction of the Employers Board; provided, however, that with respect to the above clauses (viii) and (ix) of this Section 4(g), Executive has first been given written notice thereof and an opportunity to cure, which cure is not effected in all material respects within thirty (30) days thereafter; and, provided further, that no such written notice need be given upon the second occurrence of such breach or default within one (1) year of the first. A termination for Cause shall not take effect until a Termination Notice is given to Executive following a determination by the governing body of the Employer that, in its good faith reasonable judgment, grounds for termination of Executive for Cause exist.
5. Confidentiality; Non-Disclosure of Information.
(a) As used herein, Confidential Information shall mean any and all items of information, or compilations of information, know-how or data, technical or non-technical, in any form, tangible or intangible, pertaining to the business of the Employer or its Affiliates, including but not limited to trade secrets as defined under applicable law, that are not authorized for disclosure to the public by the Employer or its Affiliates and are not readily available to the public through proper means. Confidential Information shall include, without limitation: (i) nonpublic business and financial information; methods of operation; software and intellectual property; information systems and systems logic; systems design and operating specifications; customer, vendor, client, and Referral Source (as hereafter defined) information, including lists
6 | Executives Initials |
and analysis of same; research and technical information; business or operational policies, processes and procedures; and personnel data; and (ii) information entrusted to the Employer or its Affiliates in confidence by third parties which is not readily available to the public. The exchange of information by the Employer or its Affiliates with a third party in confidence for business purposes will not remove it from protection under this Agreement. Confidential Information shall not include any data or information that has been voluntarily disclosed to the public by the Employer or its Affiliates (except where such public disclosure has been made by Executive without authorization) or that has been independently developed and disclosed by others, or that otherwise enters the public domain through lawful means. Executive acknowledges that the Confidential Information items are valuable assets of the Employer that gain economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to the public or others who could use them, and thus should be treated as trade secrets of the Employer. The term Referral Source shall mean any person, firm or entity that refers business to the Employer or its Affiliates. The term Affiliate shall mean any parent or subsidiary of the Employer (including but not limited to BCP Energy Services Fund (the Fund), BCP Energy Services Fund-A, LP (the Parallel Fund), and their respective subsidiaries and portfolio companies and their respective affiliates) or any other person or entity which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Employer and control means, with respect to any entity, the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
(b) Executive agrees not to engage in any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information and that he will not use such information for his own benefit or for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Employer. Any use of Confidential Information that is not within the scope of Executives job duties for the Employer, that does not further the interests of the Employer or its Affiliates, or that contradicts any written policies or procedures of the Employer will be considered unauthorized. This Agreement does not prohibit disclosures that are compelled by law, through court order, subpoena, or other legally binding obligation. In the event Executive believes a disclosure is compelled by law, Executive will give the Employer written notice as soon as reasonably possible under the circumstances (prior to disclosure whenever possible), and will take reasonable steps available to Executive to protect against unnecessary disclosure. Further, the Parties acknowledge that Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Executive may disclose a trade secret to his attorney and use trade secret information in any court proceeding brought by Executive alleging retaliation by the Employer for reporting a suspected violation of law as long as Executive files any document containing a trade secret under seal and does not disclose a trade secret, except pursuant to court order. The obligations of this Agreement regarding Confidential Information will apply throughout Executives employment with the Employer and for so long thereafter as the information at issue is not readily available to the public through proper means. Nothing herein shall be construed to modify, reduce, or eliminate any statutory or other legal rights that the Employer or its Affiliates would otherwise have related to tire protection of trade secrets, proprietary information or materials, or intellectual property; all such statutory or other legal rights are expressly preserved.
7 | Executives Initials |
(c) Executive recognizes that all Confidential Information and copies or reproductions thereof, whether oral, or recorded or stored in written, graphic, pictorial, or electronic form, or recorded or stored on computer disks, thumb drives, hard drives, magnetic tape or digital or any other medium, and whether created by Executive or others, are the property of the Employer. Executive holds and uses all such materials in trust for the Employer and subject to the Employers sole control and will deliver same to the Employer at the termination of his employment, or earlier if so requested by the Employer and will retain no copies without written authorization. To secure return of all such material, upon termination of employment or earlier if so requested, Executive will deliver any device to which any such information has been transferred or stored (whether such is personal property or not) to the Employer for inspection to ensure that all Confidential Information has been recovered and no unauthorized copies are retained, and Executive agrees that steps for recovery and deletion of Confidential Information may be taken by the Employer on any such device. Any authorization provided Executive (via computer password or other means) to the Employers computers is limited to use consistent with the business interests of the Employer and its Affiliates. Any access to a computer undertaken for the purpose of causing harm to the Employers business interests or to pursue competing or conflicting interests shall be considered unauthorized access and subject to this Agreement and any and all laws prohibiting unauthorized access.
6. Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) which relate to the Employers actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or made by Executive while employed by the Employer (Work Product) belong to the Employer. Executive shall disclose such Work Product to the governing body of the Employer from time to time and on demand, and, at the Employers expense, perform all actions reasonably requested by the Employer (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, the giving of assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).
7. Protective Covenants. Executive acknowledges that an agreement not to disclose or use Confidential Information may not be, standing alone, adequate to protect the Employer against the kind of irreparable harm that is caused by Executive engaging in certain types of conduct that will by their nature compromise the Confidential Information and do irreparable damage to the business relationships and goodwill Executive is paid to help develop for the Employers benefit. Accordingly, to help prevent this kind of irreparable harm, Executive agrees as follows:
(a) Executive covenants and agrees that during his employment, and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination or cessation of his employment with the Employer for any reason, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, whether individually or as an employee, consultant, independent contractor, officer, director, manager, member, shareholder, partner, owner, financier, or in any other capacity, carry on or engage in the Business of the Employer within the Restricted Area on behalf of himself or for the benefit of any other business, firm, proprietorship, corporation, partnership, association, entity or venture engaged in or carrying on any part of the Business of the Employer (Competing Business). For purposes hereof the Business of the Employer shall mean: (i) maintenance, modification, and repair services within and related to nuclear and fossil power generation facilities including but not limited to
8 | Executives Initials |
maintenance, engineering services, specialty welding, staff augmentation, and radiation protection; and (ii) utility transmission & distribution construction and maintenance including but not limited to erection and repair of overhead and underground transmission lines, distribution networks, and substations. The Restricted Area is defined as the parishes, counties and cities in which the Employer conducts business or actively solicits business, or is demonstrably engaged in planning (with the use of Confidential Information) to do business in, as set forth in Exhibit C hereto. The Parties acknowledge that the Business of the Employer is expanding and thus Executive agrees to execute amendments to this Agreement solely for the purpose of updating the definition of Business of the Employer and the Restricted Area to include all parishes and counties within which the Employer does business. The Parties intend and agree that Executives continued employment thereafter shall serve as consideration for any such amendment(s).
(b) During Executives employment with the Employer and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination or cessation of Executives employment with the Employer for any reason, Executive will not knowingly contact, solicit, or communicate with a client, customer, vendor or Referral Source of the Employer within the Restricted Area for the purpose of encouraging, causing or inducing the client, customer, vendor or Referral Source to cease or reduce doing business with the Employer or to divert business-related opportunities to any Competing Business, nor will Executive aid or assist any other person, business, or legal entity to do any of the aforesaid prohibited acts.
(c) During Executives employment with the Employer and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination or cessation of Executives employment with the Employer for any reason, Executive will not knowingly, in person or through others, hire or solicit or communicate with, or help another person or entity hire or solicit or communicate with, any employee of the Employer or its Affiliates for the purpose of causing the employee to terminate employment with the Employer or its Affiliates or to help another person or entity hire away the employee. An employee of the Employer or its Affiliates includes any individual employed by the Employer or its Affiliates or who was so employed within the one hundred eighty (180) days preceding such hiring or solicitation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may solicit or hire any employee of the Employer or its Affiliates following a termination of the employment of that individual by the Employer or its Affiliate without cause.
(d) Executive agrees that, during his employment with the Employer and for a period of two (2) years immediately following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not make statements or representations, or otherwise communicate, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, or take any action which may, directly or indirectly, disparage the Employer, its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, members, managers, employees or advisors, as such and in such capacities, or its or their businesses, and the Employer agrees that, during such period, neither it nor any of its or its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, members or managers will, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, take any action which may, directly or indirectly, disparage Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude either Party from making truthful statements or disclosures that are required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process.
(e) It is understood by and between the Parties that the foregoing covenants set forth in Sections 5, 6 and 7 are essential elements of this Agreement, and that but for the agreement of Executive to comply with such covenants, the Employer would not have entered into this
9 | Executives Initials |
Agreement. Such covenants by Executive shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision of this Agreement and the existence of any claim or cause of action Executive may otherwise have against the Employer whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of these covenants. Executive and the Employer hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event of a default or breach of these provisions the following shall apply:
(i) The Employer shall have the right to enforce its rights hereunder through any one or more of the following mechanisms, which may be pursued by the Employer at any time and at its sole discretion: judicial action before any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain monetary damages inclusive of both consequential damages and punitive damages; judicial action before any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain specific performance; and/or judicial action before any court of competent jurisdiction to obtain temporary and/or permanent injunctive relief. Should Executive breach any of the provisions of Sections 5, 6 or 7 of this Agreement, Executive shall be required to repay the Employer, in cash, the total amount of any Severance Payment paid by the Employer to Executive under this Agreement, and the Employer shall be relieved of any further obligation to make payment of the Severance Payment otherwise required by this Agreement. Any and all of the Employers remedies as described in this Agreement shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which the Employer may have at law or in equity.
(ii) A violation of the restrictions in this Agreement by Executive may cause irreparable and continuing injury to the Employers business for which there would not be an adequate remedy at law. The Employer would suffer irreparable, ongoing, and continuing damages as a result of such breach for which its remedy at law may be inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that in the event of a violation or breach of this Agreement, tire Employer shall be entitled to seek an injunction restraining any such default or any other appropriate decree of specific performance, without the requirement to prove actual damages, without posting a bond, and without the requirement of showing irreparable harm.
(iii) In the event Executive breaches a time-limited restriction contained in this Agreement, Executive hereby agrees that the applicable period of restriction shall be extended by one day for each day Executive is found to have been in violation of such restriction up to, but not to exceed, a length of time that is equal in length to the period of restriction that would have applied absent the violation.
8. Executives Representations and Covenants. Executive hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Employer that: (a) Executive (i) has not directly or indirectly, either on his own account or jointly with or as a manager, agent, officer, employee, consultant, independent contractor, partner, joint venturer, owner, financier, shareholder, or otherwise on behalf of any other person, firm, or corporation, offered employment to, solicited, or attempted to solicit away from his former employer or its affiliates any of their officers or employees or offered employment to any person who, during the six (6) months immediately preceding the date of such solicitation or offer, is or was an officer or employee of his former employer and (ii) will not do any of the foregoing acts set forth in clause (i) until after January 31, 2018; (b) Executive has not used for the benefit of the Employer or any of its Affiliates or disclosed to the Employer or any of its Affiliates any confidential written information belonging to any former employer (whether hard copy documents or electronically stored documents) following the termination of his employment
10 | Executives Initials |
with such former employer; (c) Executive will not use or disclose any confidential written information belonging to any former employer (whether hard copy documents or electronically stored documents) in connection with his employment with the Employer; and (d) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Employer, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has had the opportunity to consult with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.
9. Survival. Sections 4 through 20, inclusive, shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period or the expiration of this Agreement.

16. Choice of Law; Arbitration.
(a) All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and the exhibits and schedules hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Louisiana, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Louisiana or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Louisiana.

The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Employer and Executive, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any party hereto in enforcing or exercising any of the provisions of this Agreement shall affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or be deemed to be an implied waiver of any provision of this Agreement.
18. Indemnification.
(a) Employer Indemnity.
(i) Indemnification. The Employer agrees that if Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a Proceeding), other than a Proceeding by the Employer or any Affiliate thereof, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, consultant or employee of the Employer or any Affiliate thereof or is or was serving at the request of the Employer or any Affiliate thereof as a director, officer, member, employee, consultant or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether or not the basis of such Proceeding is Executives alleged action in an official capacity while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Employer to the fullest extent legally permitted against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys fees, judgments, damages, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties as well as amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith; provided, however, that (i) Executive provides the Employer with prompt notice of such action or threatened action and (ii) Executive acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Employer and, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Such indemnification shall continue as to Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member, officer, employee or agent of the Employer or any Affiliate thereof and shall inure to the benefit of Executives heirs, executors and administrators. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to and conditioned upon the accuracy of the representations of Executive set forth in
13 | Executives Initials |
Section 8 hereof and Executives full compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 8 hereof, the Employer shall pay all reasonable legal fees necessary to defend and shall fully indemnify and hold harmless Executive against all cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys fees, judgments, damages, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties as well as amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by Executive in connection with any Proceeding brought by any former employer of Executive relating to any alleged violation of a restrictive covenant or other agreement with such former employer in connection with the services rendered by Executive to the Employer or its Affiliates.
(ii) Advance Payment of Expenses. The Employer shall advance to Executive all reasonable costs and expenses to be incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding within 30 days after receipt by the Employer of a written request for such advance, which shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation of the amount being requested. To receive such advanced expenses, Executive must first enter into a written agreement with the Employer in which he warrants his good faith belief that he has met the appropriate standard of conduct set forth in Section 18(a)(i) and agrees to repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be finally determined by the court that he was not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and expenses.
(iii) Rights Not Exclusive. The provisions of this Section 18(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which Executive may be entitled or which may be granted to him, and it shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification to which he may be entitled under any policy of insurance.
(b) No Presumption Regarding Standard of Conduct. Neither the failure of the Employer to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by Executive under Section 18(a) above that indemnification of Executive is proper because he has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor a determination by the Employer that Executive has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Executive has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
19. No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of employment, Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment. Amounts due Executive under this Agreement shall not be offset by any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that he may obtain.
20. Section 409A Compliance. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any successor provision of law (the Code) and, to the extent it would not result in the imposition of taxes or penalties pursuant to Section 409A, the Employer agrees to interpret, apply and administer this Agreement in the least restrictive manner necessary to comply with such requirements and without resulting in any diminution in the value of payments or benefits to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, any reference to termination of Executives employment shall be interpreted consistent with the meaning of the term separation from service in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and no portion of any severance payment which is classified as nonqualified deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A and is otherwise payable in connection with separation from service shall be paid to Executive prior to the date he incurs a separation from service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder (including and without limitation Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A - 2(b)(2)(iii)),
14 | Executives Initials |
all installment payments made under this Agreement (whether severance payments or otherwise) will be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment under this Agreement will at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. If Executive is a specified employee for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of the Code, any payments required to be made pursuant to this Agreement which are deferred compensation and subject to Section 409A of the Code (and do not qualify for an exemption thereunder) shall not commence until one day after the day which is six (6) months from the date of Executives termination of employment with the Employer. Should the applicability of Section 409A result in a delay of payments to Executive, on the first day any such payments may be made without incurring a penalty pursuant to Section 409A (the 409A Payment Date), the Employer shall begin to make such payments as described in this Agreement, provided that any amounts that would have been payable earlier but for application of this Section 20 shall be paid in lump sum on the 409A Payment Date. To the extent any amount payable to Executive is subject to his entering into a release of claims with the Employer and any such amount is a deferral of compensation under Section 409A and which amount could be payable in either of two taxable years, and the timing of such payment is not subject to terms and conditions under another plan, program or agreement of the Employer that otherwise satisfies Section 409A, such payments shall be made or commence, as applicable, on January 15 (or any later date that is not earlier than 8 days after the date that the release becomes irrevocable) of such later taxable year and shall include all payments that otherwise would have been made before such date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Employer be liable to Executive for or with respect to any taxes and, if the Employer properly and timely reports any taxes owed under Section 409A, penalties or interest which may be imposed upon Executive pursuant to Section 409A.

FORM OF GENERAL RELEASE
I, Dorsey Ron McCall, in consideration of the performance by [Allied Power Holdings, LLC] (the Company), of its obligations under the Employment Agreement dated as of [_________ 2017], by and between the Company and me (the Agreement), do hereby release and forever discharge, as of the date hereof, the Company and its affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company and their direct or indirect owners, in their representative capacities, only (collectively, the Released Parties) to the extent provided below.
1. | I understand that any Severance Payment paid or granted to me under Sections 4(c) and (d) of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages, or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive the Severance Payment specified in Sections 4(c) and (d) of the Agreement unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or if I breach this General Release. I understand and agree that all payments specified in Sections 4(c) and (d) of the Agreement shall be subject to ordinary tax withholding and all required deductions. I further understand and agree that the Severance Payment specified in Sections 4(c) and (d) of the Agreement shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of any of the Companys qualified retirement plans or other benefit programs, and payment of that consideration shall not entitle me to any additional retirement plan contributions by the Company for my benefit or account. |
2. | Except as provided in Paragraph 4 below, I knowingly and voluntarily release and forever discharge the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date of this General Release) and whether known or unknown, suspected or claimed against the Company or any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with my employment with, or my separation from, the Company pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Civil Rights Act of 1866, as amended; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; or their state or local counterparts; or under any other federal, state or local civil, fair employment or human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy, contract (including without limitation a claim for breach of the Agreement) or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract |

(including without limitation a claim for breach of the Agreement), infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the Claims). This waiver and release does not affect those rights or Claims (including without limitation the right to indemnification) which arise after I execute this General Release, including without limitation under the Agreement. Nor does this waiver and release affect those rights or Claims that cannot be waived by law. While nothing contained in this General Release shall be interpreted to prevent the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission from investigating and pursuing any matter which it deems appropriate, I understand and agree that, by signing this General Release, I am waiving any and all rights I may have to reinstatement, damages, remedies or other relief as to any Claims 1 have released and any rights I have waived as a result of my execution of this General Release. |
3. | I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action or other matter covered by Paragraph 2 above. |
4. | I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release. |
5. | I expressly consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims herein above mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim arising on or prior to the date I execute this General Release seeking damages against the Company, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending charge or complaint of the type described in Paragraph 2 above as of the date I execute this General Release. |

8. | I agree that this General Release is confidential and agree not to disclose any information regarding the existence or terms of this General Release, except to my immediate family and any tax, legal or other counsel I have consulted regarding the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and I will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone. |
9. | Any non-disclosure provision in this General Release does not prohibit or restrict me (or my attorney) from responding to any inquiry about this General Release or its underlying facts and circumstances by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD) any other self-regulatory organization or governmental entity. |
10. | I agree to reasonably cooperate with the Company in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding. I understand and agree that my cooperation may include, but not be limited to: making myself available to the Company upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations; appearing at the Companys request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process; volunteering to the Company pertinent information; and turning over to the Company all relevant documents which are or may come into my possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with my other permitted activities and commitments. I understand that in the event the Company asks for my cooperation in accordance with this provision, the Company will pay me reasonable hourly compensation and reimburse me for reasonable first class travel expenses, including lodging and meals, upon my submission of receipts. |

12. | Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. |
13. | I acknowledge and agree that, except as provided in this General Release, the Agreement between myself and the Company, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1, terminated effective my final day of employment with the Company. I acknowledge and agree that I am not entitled to any further payments except as otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement.
