• Employment Duties (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company hereby employs the Executive to act for the Company during the Employment Period in the capacity set forth on Schedule A hereto, and the Executive hereby accepts such employment. The duties and responsibilities of the Executive shall include such duties and responsibilities appropriate to such office and as are normally associated with and appropriate for such position and as the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) may from time to time reasonably assign to the Executive. (b) Executive recognizes that during the period of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive owes an undivided duty of loyalty to the Company, and Executive will use Executive’s good faith efforts to promote and develop the business of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Company’s subsidiaries from time to time, together with any other affiliates of the Company, the “Affiliates”). Executive shall devote all of Executive’s business time, attention and skills to the performance of Executive’s services as an executive of the Company. Recognizing and acknowledging that it is essential for the protection and enhancement of the brand name, reputation and business of the Company and the goodwill pertaining thereto, Executive shall perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement professionally, in accordance with the applicable laws, rules and regulations and such standards, policies and procedures established by the Company and the industry from time to time. (c) However, the parties agree that: (i) Executive may devote a reasonable amount of his time to civic, community, or charitable activities and may serve as a director of other corporations (provided that any such other corporation is not a competitor of the Company, as determined by the Board) and to other types of business or public activities not expressly mentioned in this paragraph and (ii) Executive may participate as a non-employee director and/or investor in other companies and projects as disclosed by Executive to, and approved by, the Board, so long as Executive’s responsibilities with respect thereto do not conflict or interfere with the faithful performance of his duties to the Company.

• Term of Employment The initial term of Employee's employment under this Agreement shall commence on January 1, 2000 and shall terminate on December 31, 2001; provided, however, that this Agreement shall be automatically extended for additional terms of one year each unless not later than October 31 of any year beginning in 2001, either party has given written notice to the other party of its or his intention not to extend the term of this Agreement; and provided, further, that the term of employment may be terminated upon the earlier occurrence of any of the following events: (a) Upon the termination of the business or corporate existence of the Corporation; (b) Upon the death of the Employee; (c) At the Corporation's option, if Employee shall suffer a permanent disability; (For the purposes of this Agreement, "permanent disability" means any physical or mental impairment that renders the Employee unable for a period of six (6) months or more to perform the essential job functions of his position, even with reasonable accommodation, as determined by a physician selected by the Corporation. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that he shall voluntarily submit to a medical or psychological examination for the purpose of determining his continued fitness to perform the essential functions of his position whenever requested to do so by the Corporation. If the Corporation elects to terminate the employment relationship on this basis, the Corporation shall notify the Employee or his representative in writing and the termination shall become effective on the date that such notification is given.) or (d) At the Corporation's option, upon ten (10) calendar days' written notice to Employee, in the event of any breach or default by Employee of any of the terms of this Agreement or of any of Employee's duties or obligations hereunder, or in the event the Corporation determines that Employee is not performing the duties required of him hereunder to the satisfaction of the Corporation. In lieu of providing ten (10) calendar days' advance written notice, the Corporation, at its sole option, may terminate the Employee's services immediately and pay him an amount that is equivalent to ten (10) calendar days of his salary, less any deductions required by law; (e) At the Corporation's option, without any advance notice, in the event that the Employee engages in conduct which, in the opinion of the Corporation, (1) constitutes dishonesty of any kind (including, but not limited to, any misrepresentation of facts or falsification of records) in Employee's relations, interactions or dealings with the Corporation or its customers;

• EMPLOYMENT TERM AND COMPENSATION A.

The Board shall designate eight and one-half (8.5) percent of Employee’s SURS-eligible earnings as the Board contribution on behalf of the Employee in satisfaction of the Employee's required contribution to the Illinois State Universities Retirement System. The purpose of this section is to allow such Board contribution for retirement to be tax sheltered after the qualifying period of time has been met and to the extent allowed by the appropriate statutes and regulations. Both parties acknowledge that the Employee did not have the option of choosing to receive the contributed amounts directly, instead of having such contributions paid by the Board to the State Retirement System, and that such contributions are made as a condition of employment to secure the Employee's future services, knowledge and experience.

The Company may extend the Term of Employment by an additional twelve months (“Additional Term”) pursuant to formal action by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at least 90 days prior to the scheduled expiration date of the Term of Employment, unless the Executive notifies the Company of his or her decision to decline any additional term before at least 120 days prior to the scheduled expiration date of the Term of Employment. ​ (b) Subject to the payments contemplated by Sections 3(f) through 3(i), the Term of Employment may be terminated at any time by the Company: ​ (i) upon the death of Executive; ​ (ii) in the event that because of physical or mental disability Executive is unable to perform, and does not perform, in the view of the Company and as certified in writing by a competent medical physician, his or her duties hereunder for a continuous period of three consecutive months or any sixty working days out of any consecutive six month period; ​ (iii) for Cause (as defined in Section 3(d)) or Material Breach (as defined in Section 3(e)); ​ (iv) upon the continuous poor or unacceptable performance of the Executive’s duties to the Companies (other than due to a physical or mental disability), which has remained uncured for a period of 90 days after delivery of notice by the Company to the Executive of such dissatisfaction with Executive’s performance, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the areas of dissatisfaction; or (v) for any other reason or no reason, it being understood that no reason is required. ​ Executive acknowledges that no representations or promises have been made concerning the grounds for termination or the future operation of the Companies’ business, and that nothing contained herein or otherwise stated by or on behalf of any of the Companies modifies or amends the right of the Company to terminate Executive at any time, with or without Material Breach or Cause. Termination shall become effective upon the delivery by the Company to the Executive of notice specifying such termination and the reasons therefor (i.e., Section 3 (b)(i)-(v)), subject to the requirements for advance notice and an opportunity to cure provided in this Agreement, if and to the extent applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of this Agreement, any reference to “termination,” as it relates to a termination of the Executive’s employment, shall refer to a termination of employment which constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”). ​ (c) Subject to the payments contemplated by Section 3(f) and 3(i), the Term of Employment may be terminated at any time by the Executive: ​ (i) upon the death of Executive; ​ (ii) as a result of a material reduction in Executive’s authority, perquisites, position or responsibilities (other than such a reduction in perquisites which affects all of the Company’s senior executives on a substantially equal or proportionate basis), the relocation of the Company’s primary place of business or the relocation of Executive by any of the Companies to another office more than 75 miles from Boston, Massachusetts, or the Company’s willful, material violation of its obligations under this Agreement, in each case, after 60 days’ prior written notice to the Company and its Board of Directors and the Company’s failure thereafter to cure such reduction or violation; or ​ (iii) as a result of the Company’s willful and material violation of this Agreement, the Amended and Restated 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), or any agreement between Executive and any of the Companies pertaining to awards made pursuant to the Incentive Plan or the Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, in each case as such agreements or plans may be amended from time to time. ​ (d) For the purposes of this Section 3, “Cause” shall mean any of the following:

• Employment Compensation Schedule 3.16 contains a true and correct list of all employees to whom Company is paying compensation, including bonuses and incentives, at an annual rate in excess of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) for services rendered or otherwise; and in the case of salaried employees such list identifies the current annual rate of compensation for each employee and in the case of hourly or commission employees identifies certain reasonable ranges of rates and the number of employees falling within each such range.

• Period of Employment The “Period of Employment” shall be a period of three (3) years commencing on the Employment Commencement Date and ending at the close of business on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Employment Commencement Date (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall be automatically renewed, and the Period of Employment shall be automatically extended for one (1) additional year on the Termination Date and each anniversary of the Termination Date thereafter, unless either party gives notice, in writing, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of this Agreement and the Period of Employment (including any renewal thereof) of such party’s desire to terminate the Agreement or modify its terms. The term “Period of Employment” shall include any extension thereof pursuant to the preceding sentence. Provision of notice that the Period of Employment shall not be extended or further extended, as the case may be, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall not constitute “Constructive Termination” for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Period of Employment is subject to earlier termination as provided below in this Agreement.

• Employment and Compensation The following terms and conditions will govern the Executive’s employment with the Company throughout the Term.

• Employment Period The Company hereby agrees to continue the Executive in its employ, and the Executive hereby agrees to remain in the employ of the Company subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of such date (the "Employment Period").

Benefits otherwise receivable by Executive pursuant to this Section 4.1(ii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by the Executive during such 12 month period following his termination (or such shorter period elected by the Executive), and any such benefits actually received by Executive shall be reported by the Executive to the Corporation; and (iii) any options granted to Executive to acquire common stock of the Corporation, any restricted shares of common stock of the Corporation issued to the Executive and any other awards granted to the Executive under any employee benefit plan that have not vested shall immediately vest on said termination. (a) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor, except to the extent provided in Section 4.1 above, shall the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer or by insurance benefits after the date of termination, or otherwise. (b) The provisions of this Agreement, and any payment provided for hereunder, shall not reduce any amounts otherwise payable, or in any way diminish the Executive’s existing rights, or rights which would accrue solely as a result of the passage of time, under any benefit plan of the Corporation or Partnership, or other contract, plan or arrangement.
