Employment Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2017 by and between the Company and Vikrant Bhatia

We are also prepared to recommend to the Committee that you be a participant in Forterra’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”). Subject to the approval of the Committee in its discretion, we will recommend to the Committee that you receive an initial equity award as soon as reasonably practicable after your start date with an aggregate value of $200,000. Again, subject to the Committee’s approval, we are prepared to recommend to the Committee an additional award of stock options and restricted stock with an aggregate value of $200,000 in the aggregate within six months of employment, with eligibility for these awards to be based on performance conditions upon which we will jointly agree. We will also recommend to the Committee that the terms for vesting of your awards be consistent with similarly leveled executive officers of the Company and that for purposes of determining the amount of each award reasonable valuation methods shall be used, which may include the Black-Scholes method. Any equity awards in future years are subject to the Committee and the Board in its sole discretion.

You and your dependents shall be entitled to participate in all benefit plans, programs and policies maintained by the Company from time to time that are available generally to its similarly-leveled senior executives on the terms of such plans and programs; provided, however, that your right to participate in such benefits shall not affect the Company’s right to amend or terminate the general applicability of such perquisites and benefits. The Company may, in its sole discretion and from time to time, amend, eliminate, or establish benefit programs as it deems appropriate. You will be eligible for four (4) weeks of paid vacation annually.

In the event that you are terminated without Cause or resign for Good Reason (each as defined herein), you will be eligible for (1) continued payment of your base salary for a period of 12 months post-termination; (2) payment of a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination, payable at the time bonuses for such year are paid to other executives; and (3) availability of continuation coverage in accordance with COBRA at the applicable rates immediately prior to termination for a period of 12 months post-termination. In the event of your death or disability, you or your estate, as applicable, is entitled to payment of a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination, payable at the time bonuses for such year are paid to other executives, if any, as determined by the Forterra, Inc. Board of Directors in its sole discretion. None of these benefits shall be due in the event your employment is terminated with Cause or you resign without Good Reason (as defined herein).

For purposes of any payment in connection with termination of your employment, the following defined terms shall apply: “Cause” shall mean (i) a material breach of any agreement between you and the Company or any of its affiliates; (ii) willful misconduct by you in the performance of your duties on behalf of the Company or a material violation by you of any written policy of the Company or any specific written directions of the Board of Directors to the extent such direction is not illegal or otherwise in violation of Company policy; (iii) a breach of any fiduciary duty you owe to the Company or any affiliate in your capacity as an employee or officer; (iv) the conviction or plea of guilty or no contest by you with respect to (A) a felony or (B) embezzlement, dishonesty, a crime involving moral turpitude, or intentional and actual fraud; (v) the use of illicit drugs or other illicit substances or the abuse of licit drugs or other substances; or (vi) an unexplained absence for work for more than ten (10) days in any twelve (12) month period (vacation, reasonable sick leave and Disability excepted). “Good Reason” in connection with a resignation shall be deemed to exist if, without your consent: (i) there is a material diminution in your duties, responsibilities or authority; (ii) there is a material reduction in your then Base Salary; or (iii) the Company relocates your principal business location and the new principal business location is at least fifty (50) miles greater than the distance between your primary residence and the former principal business location. In each such case of Good Reason, you must provide the Company with written notice of the grounds for a Good Reason termination within sixty (60) days of the occurrence thereof, and the Company shall have a period of thirty (30) days to cure after receipt of written notice; resignation by you during the Company’s cure period or following the Company’s cure shall constitute a voluntary resignation without Good Reason.

As consideration for these benefits, you will be required to execute an agreement covering protection of confidential information, assignment of any intellectual property created during the term of your employment with the Company, and restrictive covenants in a form acceptable to the Company, including non-competition and non-solicitation agreements that would apply during your employment and for a period of not less than 12 months after the termination of your employment.
