4. Compensation and Benefits. As compensation for all services performed by Executive during the Term, Executive shall receive the following:

4.1 Base Salary. During the Term, the Company shall pay Executive a base salary at a rate not less than Two Hundred Ninety-One Thousand Six Hundred Dollars and Zero Cents ($291,600.00) per year, less any and all lawful withholdings or deductions, payable in accordance with the payroll practices of the Company for its executives, and subject to increases from time to time as may be approved by the Board (“Base Salary”).

4.2 Bonus.

The actual amount of the bonus payable with respect to a fiscal year (the “Bonus”) shall be determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be paid in accordance with the plans, policies and procedures adopted by the Compensation Committee from time to time.

4.3 Vacation. During the Term, Executive shall receive and be entitled to take vacation in accordance with the policies of the Company as in effect from time to time, and subject to the reasonable business needs of the Company.

Executive shall be entitled to participate in or receive benefits under the Company’s Executive Benefit Plan and any plan or arrangement made available from time to time by the Company to its employees generally (including any health, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, 401k, or other retirement programs) (“Benefits”). Any such plan or

4

arrangement shall be revocable and subject to termination or amendment at any time only in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans or arrangements, without recourse by Executive, provided that no such termination or amendment shall disadvantage Executive or his wife or dependents disproportionately to any other participants therein (except as may be required by laws or regulations, such as those related to “top-heavy” or “top hat” plans).

4.6 Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for all reasonable, customary and necessary business expenses incurred or paid by Executive in the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder, subject to any maximum annual limit and other restrictions on such expenses set by the Board and to such reasonable substantiation and documentation as may be specified by the Company from time to time.

4.7 Clawback. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any compensation or benefits paid to Executive by the Company, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, shall be subject to recovery by the Company in accordance with Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or any other clawback law or regulation applicable to executives of the Company, if any, as amended from time to time.

5. Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits During the Term. Notwithstanding the provision of Section 2 hereof and subject to the provisions of Section 20 below, Executive’s employment may terminate prior to or at the expiration of the Term under the following circumstances (each, a “Termination Date”):

5.1 Death. In the event of Executive’s death during the Term, Executive’s employment hereunder shall immediately and automatically terminate. In such event, the Company, shall pay to Executive’s designated beneficiaries or, if no beneficiaries have been designated by Executive, to his estate, (i) the Base Salary earned but not paid through the Termination Date; (ii) the amount of any accrued but unused vacation calculated as of the Termination Date; and (iii) any business expenses incurred by Executive but un-reimbursed on the Termination Date, provided that such expenses and required substantiation and documentation are submitted within ninety (90) days of termination and that such expenses are reimbursable under Company policy (all of the foregoing, “Final Compensation”). The Final Compensation shall be paid by the Company on the next regular payroll period following his death (or, if later, on the next regular payroll period after the Company receives notice of Executive’s death).

5.2 Disability.

(a) If, as a result of Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive shall have been absent from Executive’s duties with the Company on a full-time basis for one hundred eighty (180) consecutive calendar days or two hundred seventy (270) non-consecutive days in any eighteen (18) month period, and within thirty (30) days after written notice of termination Executive shall not have returned to the full-time performance of his duties, with or without reasonable accommodations, the Company may thereafter notify Executive of termination. In the event of such termination, the Company shall pay to Executive the Final Compensation on the next regular payroll period following his Termination Date.

5

(b) The Board may designate another employee to act in Executive’s place during any period of Executive’s disability which shall not constitute Good Reason hereunder. Notwithstanding any such designation, Executive shall continue to receive his compensation and benefits in accordance with Section 4, to the extent permitted by the then-current terms of the applicable benefit plans, until Executive becomes eligible for disability income benefits under the Company’s disability income plan or until the termination of his employment, whichever shall first occur.

5.3 By the Company for Cause. During the Term, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause as defined in Section 1.3 above. If Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause as defined in Section 1.3 above, then the Company shall have no further obligation to Executive other than to pay his Final Compensation on the next regular payroll period following his Termination Date.

5.4 By the Company Without Cause. During the Term, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause at any time. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause following the initial Public Offering then, in addition to paying Executive the Final Compensation and subject to Executive’s compliance with Article 7 in all material respects, the Company shall: (a) continue to pay Executive the Base Salary at the rate in effect on the Termination Date during the Restricted Period, with the first payment being on the Company’s next regular payroll period which is at least eight (8) business days following the effective date of the Release (defined below) (provided that if the 60-day time period for the Release begins in one taxable year and ends in a subsequent taxable year, the first payment shall be paid in the subsequent taxable year (for example, if Executive terminates on December 1, then the first payment shall not be paid until on or after January 1 of the next year, regardless of when the Release is returned)); (b) continue Executive’s health insurance benefits for the Restricted Period (at a cost no less favorable than that paid by Executive immediately prior to the Termination Date) or the economic equivalent thereto if such continuation is not permissible under the terms of the Company’s health insurance plan or would otherwise expose the Company to tax or other penalties; and (c) pay Executive an amount equal to the pro rata amount of the Bonus Executive would have earned for the year in which the termination occurred, based on the Company’s performance for the entire fiscal year in which the termination occurred relative to the performance measurements that were pending at the time of termination and to be used to determine Executive’s bonus for such year. Any such prorated Bonus shall be payable at such time or times as bonuses are payable to the other executives of the Company (the benefits, which the parties acknowledge are not required by law, outlined in Section(s) 5.4(a), (b) and (c) are collectively referenced as the “Severance”). Any obligation of the Company to provide Executive the Severance is conditioned on Executive signing, delivering to the Company and not revoking a release, in a form acceptable to the Company (the “Release”), within sixty (60) days of his Termination Date, which Release in any event will require Executive to reaffirm his obligations and commitments to the Company under Section 7 of this Agreement.

6

5.5 By Executive for Good Reason. During the Term, Executive may terminate his employment at any time for Good Reason. The following shall constitute “Good Reason” for termination by Executive:

(a) any material reduction by the Company in Executive’s Base Salary without Executive’s prior consent;

(b) following a Change in Control, any change in Executive’s status, reporting, duties or position that represents a demotion or diminution from Executive’s status, reporting, duties or position in effect before such Change in Control; or

(c) any material breach by the Company of this Agreement between it and Executive.

Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Good Reason pursuant to Section(s) 5.5(a), (b) or (c) above unless Executive delivers to the Company a written notice of termination for Good Reason specifying the alleged Good Reason within thirty (30) days after Executive first learns of the existence of the circumstances giving rise to Good Reason, within thirty (30) days following delivery of such notice, the Company has failed to cure the circumstances giving rise to Good Reason, and Executive resigns within fifteen (15) days after the end of the cure period.

If Executive’s employment is terminated by Executive for Good Reason following the initial Public Offering then, in addition to immediately paying Executive the Final Compensation, Executive shall be paid the Severance at the same time and subject to the same terms and conditions as described in Section 5.4 hereof. Any obligation of the Company to provide Executive the Severance is conditioned on Executive signing, delivering the Release to the Company and not revoking the Release as provided therein within sixty (60) days of his Termination Date.

5.6 By Executive Other than for Good Reason. During the Term, Executive may terminate his employment at any time upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Company. In the event of termination of Executive pursuant to this Section 5.6, the Board may elect to waive the period of notice, or any portion thereof, and, if the Board so elects, the Company shall pay Executive his Base Salary for the notice period (or for any remaining portion of the period). If Executive’s employment is voluntarily terminated by him other than for Good Reason, then the Company shall pay Executive the Final Compensation on the next regular payroll period following his Termination Date.

5.7 By Expiration of the Term. Upon expiration of the Term, if Executive’s employment with the Company terminates at the expiration of the Term, Executive shall be paid the Final Compensation on the next regular payroll period following his Termination Date. If the expiration of the Term was the result of the Company issuance of a notice of non-renewal to Executive pursuant to Section 2, then, in addition to paying Executive the Final Compensation, Executive shall be paid the Severance at the same time and subject to the same terms as described in Section 5.4 hereof. Any obligation of the Company to provide Executive the Severance is conditioned on Executive signing, delivering the Release to the Company and not revoking the Release as provided therein within sixty (60) days of his Termination Date.

7

6. Effect of Termination

6.1 Benefits. Benefits shall terminate pursuant to the terms of the applicable benefit plans based on the date of the termination of Executive’s employment without regard to any continuation of Base Salary or other payment to Executive following such Termination Date.

6.2 Restricted Stock Grants. The restricted stock grants made pursuant to that certain Restricted Stock Award Agreement by and between the Company (or its successor or affiliate) and Executive dated as of January 1, 2014 shall vest in accordance with the terms of such agreement.

6.3 Survival of Obligations. Provisions of this Agreement shall survive any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, including termination of this Agreement upon the expiration of the Term, if so provided herein or if necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of other surviving provisions, including without limitation the obligations of Executive under Sections 7 and 8 hereof and the obligations of the Company under Section 5.

7. Confidential Information, Ownership of Information, Inventions, Work Product, and Restricted Covenants.

7.1 Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that the Company and its Affiliates continually develop Confidential Information, that Executive may develop Confidential Information for the Company or its Affiliates, and that the Company has and will continue to provide Executive with Confidential Information during the course of his employment. Executive will comply with the policies and procedures of the Company and its Affiliates for protecting Confidential Information and shall not disclose to any person or entity or use, other an as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of his duties and responsibilities to the Company and its Affiliates, any Confidential Information obtained by Executive incident to his employment by the Company or any of its Affiliates.

7.2 Safeguard and Return of Documents. All documents, records, tapes, and other media of every kind and description relating to the business, present or otherwise, of the Company or its Affiliates, and any copies, in whole or in part, thereof (the “Documents”), whether or not prepared by Executive, shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company and its Affiliates. Executive shall safeguard all Documents and shall surrender to the Company at the time his employment terminates all Documents then in Executive’s possession or control with the exception of this Agreement or other documents related to Executive’s compensation or benefits.

7.3 Ownership of Information, Inventions and Original Work. Executive agrees that any creative works, discoveries, developments, designs, software, computer programs, inventions, improvements, modifications, enhancements, know-how, formulation, concept, methods, processes, or idea which is made, conceived, created, developed or reduced to practice by Executive, either alone or with others (collectively referred to as “Work Product”) is the exclusive property of the Company if:

8

(a) It was conceived or developed in any part on Company time;

(b) Any equipment, facilities, materials, or Confidential Information of the Company was used in its conception or development; or

(c) It (i) relates, at the time of conception or reduction to practice, to the Company’s business, (ii) relates, at the time of conception or reduction of practice, to a research or development project of the Company that was demonstrably anticipated or existed prior to or at the time of the termination of Executive’s service to the Company and/or its subsidiaries, or (iii) results from any work performed by Executive for the Company. Notwithstanding Section 7.3(c)(i), if the foregoing intellectual property described in Section 7.3(c)(i) is conceived, developed or reduced to practice entirely after the latest to occur of the time at which: (A) the Executive is no longer employed by the Company and (B) the Executive is no longer serving as a director on the Board, then such intellectual property shall not constitute Work Product.

Executive agrees to assist the Company in obtaining a patent or copyrights on such Work Product and to provide such documentation and assistance as is necessary for the Company to obtain such patent or copyright. Executive shall maintain adequate written records of such Work Product in such format as may be specified by the Company. Such records will be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times.

7.4 Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges that, in order to effectuate the promise to hold Confidential Information in trust for the Company and in order to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests (which include, but are not limited to, continuation of contracts and relationships with its customers, its reputation, its competitive advantage and its goodwill), it is necessary to enter into the following restrictive covenants. Without the prior written consent of the Company, Executive shall not, during the Restricted Period:

(a) directly or indirectly manage, operate, control, participate in, consult with, render services for or in any manner engage in any business or enterprise (including any division, group or franchise of a larger organization), whether as a proprietor, owner, member, partner, stockholder, director, officer, employee, consultant, joint venturer, investor, sales representative or other participant, in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries engaged at any time during the two year period immediately preceding the date Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries terminates (or the date of determination if the date of determination is prior to the date Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries terminated) or engages or proposes to engage as of such termination date (or the date of determination if the date of determination is prior to the date Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries terminated), in each case, anywhere in any State where the Company or one of its subsidiaries maintained an office immediately preceding such termination date (or the date of determination if the date of determination is prior to the date Participant’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries terminated);

9

(b) directly or indirectly induce or attempt to induce any employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to leave the employ of such entity;

(c) subject to the restrictions of any applicable law, directly or indirectly induce or attempt to induce any established customer of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to cease doing business with, or materially alter its business relationship with, such entity;

(d) directly or indirectly solicit the sale of goods or services, or a combination thereof, to established customers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or

(e) make or solicit or encourage others to make or solicit directly or indirectly any derogatory or negative statement or communication about the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, products, services or activities; provided, however, that the restriction set forth in this clause (e) will not prohibit truthful testimony compelled by valid legal process. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be prohibited from owning up to one percent of the outstanding stock of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation.

8. Assignment of Rights to Work Product. Executive shall promptly and fully disclose all Work Product to the Company. Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company (or as otherwise directed by the Company) Executive’s full right, title and interest in and to all Work Product. Executive agrees to execute any and all applications for domestic and foreign patents, copyrights, or other proprietary rights and to do such other acts (including, without limitation, execute and delivery of instruments of further assurance or confirmation) requested by the Company to assign the Work Product to the Company and to permit the Company to enforce any patents, copyrights, or other proprietary rights to the Work Product. All copyrightable works that Executive creates in the course of his employment by the Company shall be considered “work made for hire.”

9. Enforcement of Covenants. Executive agrees that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company and its subsidiaries and their trade secrets and Confidential Information and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect to subject matter, length of time and geographic area, and that these restraints, individually or in the aggregate, will not prevent Executive from obtaining other suitable employment during the period in which Executive is bound by the restraints. Executive agrees that, before providing services, whether as an employee or consultant, to any entity during the Restricted Period, Executive will provide a copy of Articles 7, 9, and 18 to such entity. Executive acknowledges that each of these covenants has a unique, very substantial and immeasurable value to the Company and its subsidiaries, that Executive has sufficient assets and skills to provide a livelihood while such covenants remain in force and that, as a result of the foregoing, in the event that Executive breaches such covenants, monetary damages would be an insufficient remedy for the Company and equitable enforcement of the covenant would be proper. Executive therefore agrees that the Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it, will be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against any breach by Executive of any of

10

those covenants, without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages or the posting of a bond or other security. Executive and the Company further agree that, in the event that any provision of Article 7 is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its being extended over too great a time, too large a geographic area or too great a range of activities, that provision will be deemed to be modified to permit its enforcement to the maximum extent permitted by law. Executive further covenants that Executive will not challenge the reasonableness or enforceability of any of the covenants set forth in Article 7 and that Executive will reimburse the Company and its subsidiaries for all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with any action to enforce any of the provisions of Article 7 if Executive challenges the reasonability or enforceability of any of the provisions of Article 7, it being understood and agreed that a dispute as to whether Executive’s conduct in fact violates or violated the terms of Article 7 is not, by itself, a challenge regarding the reasonableness or enforceability of Article 7. It is also agreed that each of the Company’s subsidiaries will have the right to enforce all of Executive’s obligations to that subsidiary under this Agreement, including without limitation pursuant to Article 7.

10. Assignment and Succession.

10.1 No Assignment by Executive. This Agreement is personal to Executive and shall not be assignable by Executive.

10.2 Succession. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall, to any extent, be declared illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remainder of this Agreement, or the application or such portion or provision in circumstances other than those as to which it is so declared illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

13. Waiver. No waiver of such provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by the waiving party. The failure of either party to require the performance of any term or obligation of this Agreement, or the waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement, shall not prevent any subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach.

14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior communications, agreements and understandings, written or oral, with respect to the terms and conditions of Executive’s employment, including Section 5(e) of the Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 2, 2007 by and among WCAS Paycom Holdings, Inc., Paycom Payroll, LLC, Ernest Group, Inc., The Ruby Group, Inc., Executive, Shannon Rowe, William Kerber and Henry J.

19. Attorney’s Fees. The Company agrees to pay or reimburse Executive for the reasonable attorney fees incurred by Executive in connection with the review of this Agreement and any related documents, up to a maximum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($15,000.00).

(a) To the extent (i) any payments to which Executive becomes entitled under this Agreement, or any agreement or plan referenced herein, in connection with Executive’s termination of employment with the Company constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code; (ii) Executive is deemed at the time of his separation from service to be a “specified employee” under Section 409A of the Code; and (iii) at the time of Executive’s separation from service the Company is publicly traded (as defined in Section 409A of Code), then such payments (other than any payments permitted by Section 409A of the Code to be paid within six (6) months of Executive’s separation from service) shall not be made until the earlier of (x) the first day of the seventh month following Executive’s separation from service or (y) the date of Executive’s death following such separation from service. During any period that payment or payments to Executive are deferred pursuant to the foregoing, Executive shall be entitled to interest on the deferred payment or payments at a per annum rate equal to Federal-Funds rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the date of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company. Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, any payments which would have otherwise been made during that period (whether in a single sum or in installments) in the absence of this Section 19 (together with accrued interest thereon) shall be paid to Executive or Executive’s beneficiary in one lump sum.

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code).

(c) For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment under Section 5 hereof (and each other severance plan payment) will be treated as a separate payment.

(d) Any reimbursement of expenses made under this Agreement. shall only be made for eligible expenses incurred during the Term, and no reimbursement of any expense shall be made by the Company after December 31st of the year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. Any amount eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement during a taxable year may not affect expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year, and any right to reimbursement under this Agreement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(e) It is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance of general applicability issued thereunder so as to not subject Executive to the payment of additional interest and taxes under Section 409A of the Code, and in furtherance of this intent, this Agreement shall be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with these intentions.
