While Executive is employed by the Company during the Employment Term, Executive shall report to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and shall perform such duties and responsibilities for the Company and its Affiliates (defined below) as the Board shall assign to Executive from time to time consistent with Executive position. Executive’s title during the Employment Term shall be Chief Executive Officer. For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means an individual, a partnership, a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, or an unincorporated organization, that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company.

employment with the Company. Executive will follow and comply with applicable policies and procedures adopted by the Company from time to time, including without limitation policies relating to business ethics, conflict of interest, non-discrimination, confidentiality and protection of trade secrets. Executive will not engage in other employment or other material business activity, except as approved in writing by the Board. Executive hereby represents and confirms that he is under no contractual or legal commitments that would prevent Executive from fulfilling Executive’s duties and responsibilities as set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive may participate in civic, religious and charitable activities and personal investment activities to a reasonable extent, and, as approved by the Board, serve on corporate boards or committees so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder.

3.    Board Appointment. During the Employment Term the Board shall nominate and recommend Executive for election as a director of the Company. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is not entitled to any additional compensation in respect of Executive’s appointment as a director of the Company.  If during the Employment Term Executive ceases to be a director of the Company for any reason, Executive’s employment with the Company will continue (unless terminated in accordance with Section 8) and all terms of this Agreement (other than those relating to Executive’s position as a director of the Company) will continue in full force and effect and Executive will have no claims in respect of such cessation of office.

As of the Effective Date, Executive’s Base Salary is $1,000,000.00. The Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “Human Resources Committee”) will review Executive’s Base Salary no less than annually and may, in its sole discretion, adjust Executive’s Base Salary upon such review; provided that the Company may not decrease Executive’s Base Salary during the Employment Term unless such decrease is part of an across-the-board uniformly applied reduction affecting all senior executives of the Company and not disproportionately more to Executive.

(b)    Annual Incentive Compensation. During the Employment Term, Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s Officers’ Incentive Compensation Plan (or any successor annual incentive compensation plan) and receive an annual incentive bonus opportunity in accordance therewith and criteria determined by the Human Resources Committee.

While Executive is employed by the Company during the Employment Term, Executive shall receive four (4) weeks paid vacation each year until he qualifies for additional vacation consistent with the Company’s policies for executives, and Executive shall be entitled to participate in each employee benefit plan and program of the

Company to the extent that Executive meets the eligibility requirements for such individual plan or program. Executive may receive other benefits commensurate with Executive’s position as may be approved from time to time by the Human Resources Committee.

5.    Confidential Information.

(a)     Definition of Confidential Information. Except as expressly permitted by the Board in writing, Executive shall at all times keep confidential and not disclose, divulge, furnish or make accessible to anyone or use in any way other than in the ordinary course of the business of the Company, any confidential, proprietary, nonpublic or secret knowledge or information of the Company or any of its Affiliates that Executive acquires during Executive’s employment with the Company, whether developed by himself or by others, concerning (i) any trade secrets, (ii) any confidential, proprietary, nonpublic or secret design, process, formula, plan, model, specifications, device or material (whether or not patented or patentable) directly or indirectly useful in any aspect of the business of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (iii) any customer or supplier list of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or any requirements, specifications or other confidential information about or received from any customer or supplier, (iv) any confidential, proprietary, nonpublic or secret development or research work of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (v) any strategic or other business, marketing or sales plan of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (vi) any financial data or plan respecting the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (vii) any other confidential, nonpublic or proprietary information or secret aspects of the business of the Company or any of its Affiliates (“Confidential Information”).

(b)    Acknowledgement. Executive acknowledges that the above described Confidential Information constitutes a unique and valuable asset of the Company and its Affiliates and represents a substantial investment of time and expense by the Company and its Affiliates, and that any disclosure or other use of such knowledge or information other than for the sole benefit of the Company would be wrongful and may cause irreparable harm to the Company and its Affiliates. The parties acknowledge and agree that Executive’s obligations under this Agreement to maintain the confidentiality of the Company’s Confidential Information are in addition to any obligations of Executive under applicable statutory or common law.

(c)    Exceptions. The foregoing obligations of confidentiality shall not apply to any Confidential Information to the extent that it (i) is now or subsequently becomes generally publicly known or generally known in the industry in which the Company operates, (ii) is independently made available to Executive in good faith by a third party who Executive reasonably believes has not violated an obligation of confidentiality to the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (iii) is required to be disclosed by legal process. Nothing contained in the preceding sentence shall be interpreted to legitimize any disclosure of Confidential Information by Executive that occurs outside of any of the events described in items (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence.

    6.    Ventures. If, during Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive is engaged in or associated with the planning or implementing of any project, program or venture involving the Company (or any of its Affiliates) and a third party or parties, all rights in such project, program or venture shall belong to the Company. Except as approved in writing by the Board, Executive shall not be entitled to any interest in any such project, program or venture or to any commission, finder’s fee or other compensation in connection therewith, other than the

compensation to be paid to Executive by the Company as provided herein. Executive shall have no interest, direct or indirect, in any customer or supplier that conducts business with the Company (or any of its Affiliates), unless such interest has been disclosed in writing to and approved by the Board before such customer or supplier seeks to do business with the Company (or any of its Affiliates). Ownership by Executive, as a passive investment, of less than 1.0% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any corporation traded on a national securities exchange or publicly traded in the overthecounter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 6.

    7.    Patents, Copyrights and Related Matters.

(a)    Disclosure and Assignment. Executive shall promptly disclose to the Company any and all improvements, discoveries, processes, know-how, trade-secrets and inventions that Executive may conceive and/or reduce to practice individually or jointly or commonly with others (“Discoveries”) while he is employed with the Company or any of its Affiliates. Executive agrees to assign and does hereby immediately assign, transfer and set over to the Company Executive’s entire right, title and interest in and to any and all Discoveries, and in and to any and all intellectual property rights thereto. Executive agrees to execute all instruments deemed reasonably necessary by the Company to protect and perfect rights in and to the Discoveries. This Section 7(a) shall not apply to any invention for which no equipment, supplies, facilities, Confidential Information, or other trade secret information of the Company was used and that was developed entirely on Executive’s own time, and (i) that does not relate (A) directly to the business of the Company, or (B) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) that does not result from any work performed by Executive for the Company.

(b)    Copyrightable Material. Executive hereby agrees to assign and does assign to the Company all right, title and interest in all copyrightable material (including intellectual property rights therein) that Executive conceives or originates individually or jointly or commonly with others, and that arise during the Employment Term with the Company or any of its Affiliates and out of the performance of Executive’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement. Executive shall execute any and all papers and perform all other acts reasonably necessary to assist the Company to obtain and register copyrights on such materials.

(e)     “Good Reason” hereunder shall mean any of the following “Events” (without the Executive’s express written consent):

(i)     the assignment to the Executive by the Company of duties inconsistent with the Executive’s position, duties, responsibilities and status with the Company, or a change in the Executive’s titles or offices;

(ii)     a reduction by the Company in the Executive’s Base Salary other than with the Executive’s consent or pursuant to a general wage reduction

(f)    “Disability” hereunder shall mean the inability of Executive to perform on a full-time basis the duties and responsibilities of Executive’s employment with the Company by reason of Executive’s illness or other physical or mental impairment or condition, if such inability continues for an uninterrupted period of 120 days or more during any 180-day period. A period of inability shall be “uninterrupted” unless and until Executive returns to full-time work for a continuous period of at least 30 days.

(g)    In the event of termination of Executive’s employment, except as provided in Section 9(h), the sole obligation of the Company shall be its obligation to make the payments called for by Section 9(a), (b), or (c) hereof, as the case may be, and the Company shall have no other obligation to Executive or to Executive’s beneficiary or Executive’s estate, except for compensation earned for services performed through the Termination Date or as otherwise provided by law, under the terms of any other applicable agreement between Executive and the Company or under the terms of any employee benefit plans or programs then maintained by the Company in which Executive participates.

(h)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, the Company will not be obligated to make any payments to or on behalf of Executive under Section 9(a), as applicable, unless (i) Executive signs a release of claims in favor of the Company in a form substantially similar in all respects to Exhibit 1 appended hereto (the “Release”) within the consideration period identified in the Release, (ii) all applicable rescission periods provided by law with respect to the Release have expired without Executive rescinding the Release, and (iii) Executive is in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including without limitation the provisions of Sections 5, 10, 11 and 12) as of the dates of the payments. The cessation of

these payments will be in addition to, and not as an alternative to, any other remedies at law or in equity available to the Company, including without limitation the right to seek specific performance or an injunction.

(i)    In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, as defined in the Executive Change in Control Agreement, the terms in that agreement shall replace and supersede the provisions of this Section 9, and shall be the exclusive remedy of the Executive after a Change in Control.

    10.    Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation. Executive acknowledges that the Company has spent significant time, effort and resources protecting its Confidential Information, including its trade secrets, customer goodwill, and employee, supplier, and vendor relationships. Executive has had access to the Company’s Confidential Information, and has significant control and influence over the Company’s customers, suppliers, vendors and employees, and he will continue to do so under this Agreement. In order to protect the Company’s Confidential Information, trade secrets, customer goodwill and the stability of the Company’s workforce, and other legitimate business interests, the Executive agrees to the following covenants:

(a)    Non-Competition. During Executive’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate and for a period of one (1) year following the termination of such employment, whether initiated by Executive or the Company, Executive shall not, either directly or indirectly in any manner or capacity, including without limitation as a proprietor, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, stockholder, employee, member of any association, consultant or otherwise, perform services for or have any interest in any Competitive Business in the Territory. “Competitive Business” means any person, entity or business operation (other than the Company) that engages in any business that is competitive with the then-current businesses of the Company or with any business or market the Company is actively preparing to enter as of the date of termination of Executive’s employment. Executive acknowledges that the Company conducts its business throughout the United States and internationally, and, therefore, that the term “Territory” as used herein shall be worldwide. Ownership by Executive, as a passive investment, of less than 1.0% of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any corporation traded on a national securities exchange or publicly traded in the over-the-counter market shall not constitute a breach of this Section 10(a).

(b)    Non-Solicitation of Customers and Suppliers. During Executive’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate and for a period of one (1) year following the termination of such employment, whether initiated by Executive or the Company, Executive shall not, either directly or indirectly on behalf of himself or any third party (i) call on or solicit any customers for the purpose of marketing or selling any products or services competitive with the business of the Company, or for the purpose of diverting any business away from the Company; (ii) persuade or attempt to persuade, or induce or attempt to induce, any actual or prospective customer, client, vendor, service provider, supplier, contractor or any other person having business dealings with the Company to cease doing business or otherwise transacting business with the Company or to reduce the amount of business it conducts or will conduct with the Company; (iii) call on or solicit any suppliers of the Company for the purpose of marketing or selling any products or services competitive with the business of the Company or for the purpose of attempting to persuade, induce or attempt to induce any supplier of the Company to cease doing business or otherwise transacting business with the Company or to reduce the amount of business it conducts or will conduct with the Company; or (iv) otherwise disrupt, damage or interfere in any manner with the relationship between the Company and its actual or prospective customers, clients, vendors, service providers, or suppliers. Executive acknowledges that the Company has invested material time and resources in the identification and qualification of its customers and/or suppliers and that the identity, nature and details of its relationships with customers and/or suppliers are unique and proprietary.

(c)    Non-Solicitation of Employees. During Executive’s employment with the Company or any Affiliate and for a period of one (1) year following the termination of such employment, whether initiated by the Executive or the Company, Executive shall not, either directly or indirectly on behalf of himself or any third party, in any manner or capacity, including without limitation as a proprietor, principal, agent, partner, officer, director, stockholder, employee, member of any association, consultant or otherwise, hire, engage, recruit, solicit, or otherwise interfere with the employment or retention of any person who is then an employee or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates or who was an employee or independent contractor of the Company or any of its Affiliates as of the Termination Date. Anonymous job postings in a general publication or website to which an employee responds shall not violate this Section 10(c).

(d)    Reasonableness of Covenants. The Executive agrees that the scope and duration of Section 10 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests. If, at any time, any term or provision contained in Section 10 is finally adjudicated by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction as invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereby agree that the court or arbitrator making this determination will have the power to reform the scope and/or duration of the term or provision to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable which comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision; and that such reformation will not impact the other provisions of this Agreement and will be enforceable as so modified.

    11.    Non-Disparagement. During the Employment Term and thereafter, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Executive shall not make any statement that is disparaging or reflects negatively upon the Company or its Affiliates, or any of their officers, directors or employees, to, or that is likely to come to the attention of, (a) any customer, vendor, supplier, distributor or other trade related business relation of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (b) any employee of the Company or its Affiliates, or (c) any member of the media. Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from responding truthfully to any inquiry from a governmental entity and/or from communicating with the Board and/or those employees with a need to know about personnel issues involving Company officers, directors and/or employees.

    12.    Other Post-Termination Obligations.

    (a)    Resignation From Positions. Unless otherwise requested by the Board in writing, upon Executive’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason Executive shall automatically resign as of the Termination Date from all titles, positions and appointments Executive then holds with the Company, whether as an officer, director, trustee, fiduciary or employee (without any claim for compensation related thereto), and Executive hereby agrees to take all actions necessary to effectuate such resignations.

    (b)    Return of Property. Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, or at such earlier time requested by the Company, Executive shall promptly deliver to the Company any and all Company records and any and all Company property in Executive’s possession or under Executive’s control, including without limitation manuals, books, blank forms, documents, letters, memoranda, notes, notebooks, reports, printouts, computer storage devices, source codes, data, tables or calculations and all copies thereof, documents that in whole or in part contain any trade secrets or confidential, proprietary or other secret information of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and all copies thereof, and keys, vehicles, access cards, access codes, passwords, credit cards, personal computers, telephones and other electronic equipment belonging to the Company or any of its Affiliates. Executive’s retention of information and materials related to Executive’s personal compensation and benefits, which will not violate this subsection.

(c)    Cooperation. Following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will, upon reasonable request of the Company or its designee and provided the Company is not in material breach of any provision of this Agreement, respond to inquiries and cooperate with the Company in connection with the transition of Executive’s duties and responsibilities for the Company for up to six months following the Termination Date; and be reasonably available at mutually convenient times, with or without subpoena, to be interviewed, review documents or things, give depositions, testify, or engage in other reasonable activities in connection with any litigation or investigation, with respect to matters that Executive then has or may have knowledge of by virtue of Executive’s employment by or service to the Company or any of its Affiliates. In connection with such cooperation requested by the Company, the Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred as a result of Executive’s compliance with Executive’s obligations, and, with respect to such cooperation provided by Executive during any period for which he is not receiving payments under Section 9(a)(i), the Company shall compensate Executive at a daily rate comparable to Executive’s regular salary rate in effect as of the Termination Date. The Company will endeavor to schedule such activities taking into account other obligations Executive may have and so as not to materially interfere with Executive’s then-current employment or other business activities.

    13.    Remedies. Executive acknowledges that it would be difficult to fully compensate the Company for monetary damages resulting from any breach by Executive of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7, 10 or 11 hereof. Accordingly, in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any such provisions, the Company shall, in addition to any other remedies it may have, be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to enforce such provisions, and such relief may be granted without the necessity of proving actual monetary damages.

    14.    Miscellaneous.

    (a)    Taxes. The Company will deduct or withhold from any payment made or benefit provided hereunder all federal, state and local taxes which the Company is required or authorized by law to deduct or withhold therefrom or otherwise collect in connection with the wages and benefits provided in connection with the Executive’s employment with the Company. This Agreement and the payments and benefits provided hereunder are intended to be exempt from the requirements of Sections 409A to the maximum extent possible, whether pursuant to the short-term deferral exception described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), the involuntary separation pay plan exception described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement and the payments and benefits provided hereunder shall be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with such intentions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, (i) each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments; (ii) any expenses eligible for reimbursement in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year, the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred, and the right to reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (iii) no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of a termination of Executive’s employment shall be made unless and until Executive incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then to the extent necessary to avoid subjecting Executive to the imposition of any additional tax under Section 409A with respect to amounts that are not otherwise exempt from Code 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable under this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) shall not be paid during such period, but shall instead be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first

business day following the earlier of (a) the date that is six months after the separation from service or (b) Executive’s death.

(b)    Jurisdiction and Venue. Executive and the Company consent to jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Minnesota and/or the federal district courts of the District of Minnesota for the purpose of resolving all issues of law, equity, or fact, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement. Any action involving claims for interpretation, breach or enforcement of this Agreement shall be brought in such courts. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction over such party in the state and/or federal courts of Minnesota and hereby waives any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction or inconvenient forum. If the decision is made to move the Company headquarters to another state, then the jurisdiction would change to the state and county in which the Company headquarters is located.

(c)    Governing Law.

This is a Separation Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”) entered into by and between Michael Happe, his heirs, legal representatives, legatees, successors and assigns (hereinafter referred to as “Employee”) and Winnebago Industries, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Company”).

(g)    Not to apply for or otherwise seek employment with the Company (including, but not limited to, placement by a temporary or staffing agency) at any time; Employee further agrees that the Company shall have no obligation to consider any application that Employee may submit in violation of this provision.

5.    (a) Subject to subparagraph 5(b) below and as a material inducement to Company to enter into this Agreement, Employee, on Employee’s own behalf and on behalf of Employee’s heirs, executors, agents, administrators, successors, assigns and representatives, covenants not to sue and fully and forever releases, acquit and discharges Company, its shareholders, partners, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, parents, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliated companies, joint venture companies, insurers, customers, suppliers, and successors (collectively the “Releasees”), of and from any and all actions, causes of action, claims and demands whatsoever (collectively “claims”) that Employee may have had, may now have, or may hereafter have against Releasees, including without limitation any and all claims in any way related to or based upon Employee’s employment with and/or, except as provided below, Employee’s termination of employment with Company, including without limitation any claims for unpaid wages, breach of contract, implied contract, promissory estoppel, tortious conduct or claims arising under any federal or state statute or law or local ordinance, including but not limited to: the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”); the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”); the Americans with Disabilities Act, as Amended (“ADAA”); the Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”); Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Acts of 1991; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”); Sections 1981 through 1988 of Title 42 of the United States Code; the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”); the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”); the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (“WARN”); the Occupational Safety and Health Act (“OSHA”); the Minnesota Human Rights Act; Iowa’s or any other state’s fair employment practices laws; any other federal, state or local law, including without limitation, any other federal, state or local employment discrimination law; or claims arising under any public policy, contract or covenant (express or implied) or common law. Provided, however, that this release shall not extend to any claims: i. for indemnification, but nothing herein shall preclude the Company from asserting any defense to claims for indemnification by Employee, ii. that cannot be released by law, and/or iii. based upon the Company’s breach of this Agreement.

(b)    On Employee’s own behalf and on behalf of Employee’s heirs, executors, agents, administrators, successors, assigns and representatives, Employee specifically waives any right or claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 as amended and the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (collectively referred to as the “Act”). Employee acknowledges and agrees that this waiver of any right or claim under the Act (hereinafter “Waiver”) is knowing and voluntary, and specifically agrees as follows: (i) that this Waiver is part of a written agreement between Employee and the Company; (ii) that this Agreement and this Waiver are written in a manner which Employee understands; (iii) that this Waiver specifically relates to rights or claims arising under the Act; (iv) that Employee does not waive any rights or claims under the Act that may arise after the date of execution of this Agreement

and Waiver as set forth below; (v) that Employee waives rights or claims under the Act arising on or before the execution date of this Agreement in exchange for consideration in addition to anything of value to which Employee is already entitled to receive; (vi) that Employee is hereby advised in writing to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement and Waiver; (vii) that Employee has a period of twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement and Waiver; and (viii) that for a period of fifteen (15) days following the execution of this Agreement and Waiver, Employee may revoke the Agreement and Waiver, and the Agreement and Waiver will not become effective or enforceable until the revocation period expires.

(c)    This Agreement covers both claims that Employee knows about and those Employee may not know about. Employee expressly waives all rights afforded by any statute that limits the effect of a release with respect to unknown claims. Employee understands the significance of Employee’s release of unknown claims and Employee’s waiver of statutory protection against a release of unknown claims.

(d)    This Agreement shall not affect Employee’s claims arising out of any social security, workers’ compensation or unemployment laws, or under the terms of any employee pension or welfare or benefit plans or programs of the Company, which may be payable now or in the future to Employee.

(e)    Employee warrants and represents that, other than any as referenced in this Agreement, Employee has not filed a law suit or other complaint asserting any claims that are released in this Agreement. Should any person, organization or other entity file, claim, sue or cause or permit to be filed any civil action, suit or legal proceeding against any of the Releasees involving any matter occurring at any time up to the time Employee signs this Agreement, Employee agrees not to seek or accept any personal or monetary relief in such action or proceeding.

     6.    This Agreement shall not be construed as an admission by Company of any wrongdoing or any violation of federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance, and Company specifically disclaims any wrongdoing whatsoever against Employee on the part of itself, its employees, representatives or agents.

7.    Employee represents and warrants that he is the sole owner of the actual or alleged claims, demands, rights, causes of action and other matters which are released herein; that the same have not been transferred or assigned or caused to be transferred or assigned to any other person, firm, corporation or other legal entity; that they have obtained all approvals necessary to enter into this Agreement; and that he has the full right and power to grant, execute, and deliver the releases, undertakings and agreements contained herein.

8.    It is understood and agreed that for purposes of this Agreement the term “Company” as used herein shall include not only Winnebago Industries, Inc., but also its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, and all officers, directors and employees of any of the foregoing.

9.    To the extent that any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed by any court to be unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed modified or omitted to the extent necessary to make the remaining provisions enforceable; in that event, the parties agree to use their best efforts to substitute a valid, legal and enforceable provision, which insofar as practical, implements the purpose of this Agreement.

10.    Employee expressly acknowledges that Employee understands all the provisions of this Separation Agreement and General Release and is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and Release.

11.    All disputes arising from this Agreement and otherwise between the Company and Employee as to state laws shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. The venue for any dispute between the parties arising from this Agreement or otherwise shall be in Hennepin County, Minnesota. If the decision is made to move the Company headquarters to another state, then the venue would change to the county and state in which the Company headquarters is located.

12.    In the event Employee breaches any term of this Agreement, Employee shall repay to the Company the payments he received under Paragraph 2.

13.    In addition to the other remedies allowed by law and this Agreement, if either party initiates any action or proceedings to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover the costs, including reasonable attorneys’ and expert witness fees.

14.    This Agreement, and the Employee’s Employment Agreement with the Company, referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior oral or written agreements, commitments or understandings with respect thereto.
