The parties hereby agree that, pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Employment Agreement, (1) all of the Executive’s unvested Performance Restricted Shares shall remain outstanding through the scheduled vesting dates, as applicable, and shall vest and/or be forfeited based on satisfaction of the applicable performance goals to the same extent as if the Executive’s services to the Company had not ended, and (2) subject to Section 6(d) of this Agreement, the resulting number of Performance Restricted Shares after such determination shall be prorated based on the elapsed portion of the performance period from the grant date thereof through the Termination Date.

If, on the Relevant Dates, the Company determines, by action of its Board or Compensation Committee acting in its sole discretion, that the Executive has fully complied with this Agreement, including the Restrictive Covenants and Section 9 of this Agreement, the Board shall take the following actions:
(i)    The proration of the Performance Restricted Shares granted in respect of the performance cycles ending December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2020 shall not occur and the number of Performance Restricted Shares shall be determined as if the Termination Date had not occurred; and

7.    Restrictive Covenants. The Executive and the Company hereby agree that the restrictive covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement, including without limitation Section 7 thereof (the “Restrictive Covenants”) and the restrictive covenants of any other individual agreement between the Executive and the Company, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates are hereby incorporated by reference herein and shall continue to apply following the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Executive’s termination of employment in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement, except that (x) the duration of Section 7(b) of the Employment Agreement (relating to noncompetition only) shall be reduced by twelve (12) months, from eighteen (18) months to six (6) months, and (y) for purposes of Section 7(d) of the Employment Agreement (relating to nondisparagement), the Executive agrees that, as a condition to the payments and benefits to be made under this Agreement, the Executive shall not make or publish any disparaging statements with respect to Third Point LLC and its employees, officers, members and affiliates to the same extent as applicable to those persons already covered by such Section 7(d). The Company agrees, to the same extent as applicable to the Company and its directors and officers already covered by such Section 7(d), Third Point LLC shall not, and shall use its best efforts to ensure that its members, directors and officers do not, make or publish any disparaging statements (whether written or oral) regarding the Executive or any members of his immediate family. The Executive hereby further agrees and acknowledges that, as one of the remedies available to the Company for breach of the Restrictive Covenants under Section 7 of the Employment Agreement, the continued payment of, and retention of, the payments and benefits set forth in Section 2 and Section 6 hereof shall be subject to the Executive’s compliance with the Restrictive Covenants in accordance with their terms (except as modified hereby) following the Termination Date. The Executive acknowledges that the Restrictive Covenants include (but are not limited to) covenants related to the preservation of confidential information, nondisparagement of (among others) the Company and its affiliates, officers and directors, noncompetition with the business of the Company and its affiliates and nonsolicitation of (among others) employees or customers.

In consideration of the Company’s commitments pursuant to Section 2 and Section 6, the Executive shall execute the Waiver and Release of Claims attached hereto as Exhibit C, deliver the executed Waiver and Release of Claims to the Company simultaneously with the Executive’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and not revoke such Waiver and Release of Claims. The Executive agrees and acknowledges that none of the payments or benefits to which the Executive is entitled by reason of the operation of this Agreement shall be payable to the

5







Executive unless and until the Executive shall have executed, delivered and not revoked such Waiver and Release of Claims.
9.    Cooperation and Assistance. In addition to Section 5(c) of the Employment Agreement, which shall continue to apply following the Termination Date in accordance with its terms, following the Termination Date and continuing until February 26, 2022, the Executive shall take such steps requested by the Board, reasonably and in good faith, to assist the Company in its discussions with employees, stockholders and regulators in connection with the transition of the Executive’s duties, and generally to minimize the distraction and disruption of the Executive’s departure from the Company. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, any statement by the Executive to the press or a regulator of the Company (or any representative thereof) or made in a public setting (such as industry conferences) regarding any matter involving the Company, any of its affiliates, or the officers, directors, shareholders or members of the Company or any of its affiliates, and any statement by the Executive as to any such matter which could otherwise reasonably be expected to be made public, shall be subject to the prior review by, approval of, and coordination with, the General Counsel of the Company.
10.    Company Property. To the extent that the Executive has not already done so as of the date of this Agreement, promptly following the Termination Date, the Executive shall return to the Company (1) all property of the Company and its affiliates in the Executive’s possession, including without limitation memoranda, photographs, records, reports, manuals, drawings, blueprints, prototypes, notes, documents, drawings, specifications, software, media and other materials, including any copies thereof (including electronically recorded copies) and (2) any keys, equipment (such as blackberries, cell phones and computers), identification and credit cards belonging to the Company and its affiliates, provided, however, that Executive may take with him (and, at his request, the Company shall provide him with) a copy of his contacts and contacts list.

The Executive agrees that the payments and benefits to be paid and provided under this Agreement shall be in full and final satisfaction of the obligations of the Company and each of its subsidiaries and affiliates in respect of the Executive’s termination of employment from the Company and its affiliates, including without limitation under the Employment Agreement and Statement of Employment. The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Executive that it has been duly authorized to enter into this Agreement. Section 15 of the Employment Agreement (relating to governing law and dispute resolution) is incorporated herein as if set forth fully herein. This Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument signed by the Company and the Executive. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the Company and the Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs, executors, administrators (in the case of the Executive) and assigns. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,

6







the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. The failure of a party to enforce the breach of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall not be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the Agreement or any of its provisions, nor shall it affect in any way the obligation of the other party to fully perform such other party’s obligations hereunder. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts and delivered electronically (including by .pdf file), each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
