AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.13
AMENDMENT TO
AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT (the “Amendment”) is effective as of February 4, 2010 and amends the October
10, 2008 Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and between FIDELITY
NATIONAL FINANCIAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and XXXXXXX X. XXXX (the
“Employee”) as follows:
1. Excise Taxes. Section 9 of the Agreement is replaced in its entirety with the
following:
“Excise Taxes. If any payments or benefits paid or provided or to be paid
or provided to the Employee or for Employee’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement or otherwise in connection with, or arising out of, employment with the
Company or its subsidiaries or the termination thereof (a “Payment” and,
collectively, the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section
4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then Employee may elect for such Payments to be
reduced to one dollar less than the amount that would constitute a “parachute
payment” under Section 280G of the Code (the “Scaled Back Amount”). Any such
election must be in writing and delivered to the Company within thirty (30) days
after the Date of Termination. If Employee does not elect to have Payments reduced
to the Scaled Back Amount, Employee shall be responsible for payment of any Excise
Tax resulting from the Payments and Employee shall not be entitled to a gross-up
payment under this Agreement or any other for such Excise Tax. If the Payments are
to be reduced, they shall be reduced in the following order of priority: (i) first
from cash compensation, (ii) next from equity compensation, then (iii) pro-rata
among all remaining Payments and benefits. To the extent there is a question as to
which Payments within any of the foregoing categories are to be reduced first, the
Payments that will produce the greatest present value reduction in the Payments with
the least reduction in economic value provided to Employee shall be reduced first.”
2. Definitions and Conflicts. All terms not specifically defined in this Amendment
shall have the same meaning as in the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of
this Amendment and the Agreement, this Amendment shall control.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have executed this Amendment to be effective as of the date
first set forth above.
