Such cooperation includes, without limitation, being available upon reasonable notice, without subpoena, to provide accurate and complete advice, assistance and information to the Company or any of its affiliates, including offering and explaining evidence, providing truthful and accurate sworn statements, and participating in discovery and trial preparation and testimony. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive’s obligations under this Section 8 are an essential part of the consideration Executive is providing hereunder in exchange for which and in reliance upon which the Company has agreed to provide the payments and benefits under this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 8, any reference to “CHC” shall mean the Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries.

(a) Executive recognizes and understands that in performing the duties and responsibilities of his employment as provided in this Agreement, he will occupy a position of high fiduciary trust and confidence, pursuant to which he will develop and acquire wide experience and knowledge with respect to all aspects of the Company’s global helicopter services and other businesses carried on by

4.

the Company and its affiliates and the manner in which such businesses are conducted. It is the express intent and agreement of the Executive and CHC that such knowledge and experience shall not be used in any manner which would be detrimental to the business interests of CHC and such affiliates whether during the currency of his employment by CHC or at any time following the termination of his employment with CHC. The Executive covenants and agrees with CHC that the Executive will not, without the prior written consent of CHC, at any time within a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, either individually or in partnership or in conjunction with any person, whether as principal, agent, shareholder, director, officer, employee, investor, or in any other manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, advise, manage, carry on, be engaged in, own or lend money to, or permit the Executive’s name or any part thereof to be used or employed by any person managing, carrying on or engaged in a business of supplying global, national or local helicopter (including helicopter maintenance) services.

(b) The Executive shall not, for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination of employment for any reason, without the prior written consent of CHC, for his account or jointly with another, either directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of himself or any individual, partnership, corporation or other legal entity, as principal, agent, employee or otherwise, solicit, influence, entice or induce, attempt to solicit, influence, entice or induce:

(c) The Executive understands and agrees that the CHC has a material interest in preserving the relationships it has developed with its customers against impairment by competitive activities of a former employee. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that the restrictions and covenants contained herein are reasonably required for the protection of the CHC and its goodwill and that his agreement to same by his execution of this Agreement are of the essence to this Agreement and constitute a material inducement to the company to enter into this Agreement and to employ the Executive, and that the CHC would not enter into this Agreement absent such an inducement.

(d) The parties recognize that a breach by the Executive of any of the covenants herein contained would result in damages to CHC and that CHC could not adequately be compensated for such damages by monetary award. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that in the event of any such breach, in addition to all other remedies available to CHC at law or in equity, CHC shall be entitled as a matter of right to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for such relief by way of restraining order, injunction, decree or otherwise, as may be appropriate to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

5.

(e) The parties further agree that a breach by the Executive of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8 will nullify and make void the obligation that CHC has to make the payments referred to above, and where such payments have already been made, the Executive agrees to reimburse CHC the amount paid. Where the Executive fails to reimburse CHC, the amount paid to the Executive shall be a debt due and owing from the Executive to CHC. The parties agree that all restrictions in this Section 8 are necessary and fundamental to the protection of the business of CHC and are reasonable and valid, and all defences to the strict enforcement thereof by CHC are hereby waived by the Executive.

The Executive acknowledges that, by reason of the Executive’s employment with CHC, the Executive will have access to Confidential Information, as hereinafter defined, of CHC, that CHC has spent time, effort and money to develop and acquire. The term “Confidential Information” as used in this Agreement means all trade secrets, proprietary information and other data or information (and any tangible evidence, record or representation thereof) whether prepared, conceived or developed by an employee or agent of CHC (including the Executive) or received by CHC from an outside source which is maintained in confidence by CHC or the outside source who provided the information in question.

(ii) the identities of clients and potential clients, customers and potential customers (collectively, “Customers”); the identities of contact persons at Customers; the preferences and needs of Customers; customer contact persons; information regarding sales terms, service plans, methods, practices, strategies, forecasts, know-how, and other marketing techniques; the identities of key accounts, potential key accounts; the identities of suppliers and contractors, and all information about those supplier and contractor relationships such as contact person(s), pricing and other terms;

The Executive understands that CHC has from time to time in its possession information belonging to third parties or which is claimed by third parties to be confidential or proprietary and which CHC has agreed to keep confidential. The Executive agrees that all such information shall be Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement.

For purposes of the copyright laws of the United States of America, to the extent, if any, that such laws are applicable to any Confidential Information, it shall be considered a work made for hire and CHC shall be considered the author thereof.

The Executive agrees that documents, copies, records and other property or materials made or received by the Executive that pertain to the business and affairs of CHC, including all Confidential Information which is in the Executive’s possession or under the Executive’s control are the property of CHC and that the Executive will return same and any copies of same to CHC immediately upon termination of this Agreement or at any time upon the request of CHC.

Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of this Section 8, the Executive shall be permitted to retain copies of this Agreement, and any documentation related to this compensation, benefits and equity rights arising under or contemplated by this Agreement.

Any new technology, knowledge or information developed by the Executive related to the business of CHC during the term of this Agreement shall be the exclusive property of CHC to the extent that such technology, knowledge or information is owned by the Executive.

The Executive acknowledges that all Confidential Information (as defined above) and all other discoveries, know-how, inventions, ideas, concepts, processes, products, protocols, treatments, methods, tests and improvements, computer programs, or parts thereof, conceived, developed, reduced to practice or otherwise made by him either alone or with others, during the course of his employment with CHC pursuant to this Agreement or any previous employment agreements or arrangements between the Executive and CHC, whether or not conceived, developed, reduced to practice or made during the Executive’s regular working hours or on the premises of CHC (collectively “Inventions”), and any and all services and products which embody, emulate or employ any such Inventions will be the sole property of CHC and all copyrights, patents, patent rights, trademarks, service marks and reproduction rights to, and other proprietary rights in, each such Invention, whether or not patentable or copyrightable, will belong exclusively to CHC. For purposes of the copyright laws of the United States of America, to the extent, if any, that such laws are applicable to any such Invention or any such service or product, it will be considered a work made for hire and CHC will be considered the author thereof.

The Executive shall disclose promptly to CHC, its successors or assigns, any Inventions.

7.

The Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign all his rights, title and interest in the Inventions, to CHC or its nominee.

Whenever requested to do so by CHC, the Executive shall execute any and all applications, assignments or other instruments which CHC shall deem necessary to apply for and obtain patents or copyrights of Canada, the United States or any foreign country or to otherwise protect CHC’s interest in the Inventions and shall assist CHC in every proper way (entirely at CHC’s expense, including reimbursement to the Executive for all expense and loss of income) to obtain such patents and copyrights and to enforce them.

The Executive hereby waives for the benefit of CHC and its successors and assigns any and all moral rights in respect of any Inventions.

9. Parachute Payments. If any payment or benefit (including payments and benefits pursuant to this Agreement) Executive would receive in connection with a Change in Control from the Company or otherwise (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this paragraph, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Company shall cause to be determined, before any amounts of the Payment are paid to Executive, which of the following two alternative forms of payment shall be paid to Executive: (A) payment in full of the entire amount of the Payment (a “Full Payment”), or (B) payment of only a part of the Payment so that Executive receives the largest payment possible without the imposition of the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”). A Full Payment shall be made in the event that the amount received by Executive on a net after-tax basis is greater than what would be received by Executive on a net after-tax basis if the Reduced Payment were made, otherwise a Reduced Payment shall be made. If a Reduced Payment is made, (i) the Payment shall be paid only to the extent permitted under the Reduced Payment alternative, and Executive shall have no rights to any additional payments and/or benefits constituting the Payment, and (ii) reduction in payments and/or benefits shall occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments; (B) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards other than stock options; (C) cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock options; and (D) reduction of other benefits paid to Executive. In the event that acceleration of compensation from Executive’s equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be canceled in the reverse order of the date of grant. The independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the Change in Control shall make all determinations required to be made under this Section. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such independent registered public accounting firm required to be made hereunder. Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and Executive.

10. Mitigation/Set off. Executive shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by Executive as a result of employment by another employer or by any retirement benefits received by Executive after the date of a Qualifying Termination or a Change in Control Termination. The Company’s obligation to pay Executive the amounts provided and to make the arrangements provided hereunder shall be subject to set-off, counterclaim or recoupment of amounts owed by Executive to the Company or its affiliates.

8.

11. Application of Section 409A.

(a) Separation from Service. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no amount deemed deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be payable under Section 4 unless Executive’s termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” with the Company and its affiliates within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated thereunder and any such amount shall not be paid, or in the case of installments, commence payment, until the first payroll period following the 60^th day following Executive’s separation from service. Any installment payments that would have been made to Executive during the 60-day period immediately following Executive’s separation from service but for the preceding sentence shall be paid to Executive on the first payroll period following the 60^th day after Executive’s separation from service and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Agreement.

(b) Specified Employee. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed at the time of Executive’s separation from service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of Executive’s benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company (as such term is defined in the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code) or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the first business day following the expiration of the applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this subsection shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive (without interest), and any remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.

(c) Expense Reimbursements. To the extent that any reimbursement payable pursuant to this Agreement is subject to the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursement payable to Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid to Executive no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred; the amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement in any subsequent year; and Executive’s right to reimbursement under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(d) Installments. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment.

12. Other Terminations; Board and Committee Resignations. Upon any other termination of employment of Executive not covered by Section 4 or 5, the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive hereunder except for the payment or provision, as applicable, of (i) the portion of the Base Salary for periods prior to the effective date of termination accrued but unpaid (if any), (ii) all unreimbursed expenses (if any), and (iii) other payments, entitlements or benefits, if any, in accordance with terms of the applicable plans, programs, arrangements or other agreements of the Company (other than any severance plan or policy) as to which the Executive held vested rights to such payments, entitlements or benefits, whether as a participant, beneficiary or otherwise on the date of termination (“Other Benefits”) (clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Accrued Amounts”).

Upon termination of Executive’s employment from the Company for any reason, Executive agrees to resign, as of the date of such termination and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees thereof) and the Board of Directors (or any similar governing body) (and any committees thereof) of any of the Company’s affiliates.
