This Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force or effect upon any termination of the Purchase Agreement.

(b) General.

The number of PSUs included in such award will be determined by dividing (i) Thirty-Five Thousand dollars ($35,000) by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Ambac’s common stock on the date the Committee approves such award. All PSUs included in such award will vest on the third anniversary of the date of the grant.

A majority of the independent third parties shall determine such designation and/or amount of Organic Net Income and Synergistic Net Income and such determination shall be set forth in a written report mutually addressed to the Company and the Executive and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.

currently engaged) or other actions that may have an impact on the Organic Business and the Synergistic Business and the Executive will not have any right to claim any lost earn-out, compensation or other damages as a result of such decisions unless such decisions are made against the written objections of the Executive and directly and materially impede the Executive’s ability to grow the Organic Business as currently contemplated by the parties.

(i) Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for reasonable travel and other business-related expenses incurred by him in performance of the business of the Company.

(k) Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event of the Executive’s Disability, the Company shall be entitled to terminate his employment.

(l) Continuation at the End of the Term. If the Executive’s employment with the Company continues “at will” following the expiration of the Term, then, during the twelve month period following the expiration of the Term, the Executive’s annual rate of Salary will not be less than the greater of (A) his Salary immediately prior to the expiration of the Term and (B) two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000). The rights of the Executive to receive payments and reports under Section 2 other than amounts earned and reports due prior to the end of the Term, shall not survive the termination of the Executive’s employment after the Term, regardless of the reason for termination.

3. Protection of the Company’s Interests.

(a) Confidential Information. In consideration of the Company’s undertakings herein and in the Purchase Agreement, the Executive hereby acknowledges and reaffirms all of his confidentiality obligations described and set forth in Section 4.8 of the Purchase Agreement. All confidential information described and set forth in Section 4.8 of the Purchase Agreement created or used by the Executive during the course of his employment with the Company shall be the sole property of the Company and the Company shall be the sole owner of all patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other rights and protection thereunder and shall be returned to the Company or destroyed following expiration of the Term once all amounts required to be paid hereunder at such time have been paid.

(b) Other Covenants. In consideration of the Company’s undertakings herein and in the Purchase Agreement, the Executive hereby acknowledges and reaffirms all of his non-solicitation and non-competition obligations described and set forth in Section 4.7 of the

Purchase Agreement (the “Covenants”). In addition to the Covenants, if the Executive is terminated under circumstances giving rise to Severance under Section 4(d)(iii), then (i) the Executive shall be bound by the provisions of Section 4.7(a) of the Purchase Agreement for one (1) year after termination if the amount of Severance is between $1,500,000 and $2,499,999 and two (2) years after termination if such amount is between $2,500,000 and $4,999,999 and (ii) the Executive shall be bound by the provisions of Section 4.7(a), 4.7(b) and 4.7(c) of the Purchase Agreement for three (3) years after termination if such amount is between $5,000,000 and $7,499,999, four (4) years after termination if such amount is between $7,500,000 and $9,999,999 and five (5) years after termination if such amount is greater than or equal to of $10,000,000.

(c) The Executive agrees that the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 3(b) are reasonable with respect to their duration, geographic area and scope and acknowledges that the Company would not be willing to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement without the Executive entering into the restrictive covenants set forth herein. If, at any time, the provisions of Section 3(b) shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration, geographic area or scope, Section 3(b) shall be considered divisible and shall be deemed amended to only such duration, geographic area or scope as shall be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction. The restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 3(b) are in addition to, and not in limitation of, the Covenants and shall not be deemed to in any way limit or reduce the duration, geographic area or scope of the Covenants.

4. Remedies.

(a) Injunctive Relief. Without intending to limit the remedies available to the Company, the Executive acknowledges that, in view of the nature of the business and the business objectives of the Company in entering into this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and the consideration paid hereunder, the provisions contained in Section 3 are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and that any violation of such agreements will result in irreparable injury to the Company for which damages will not be an adequate remedy. The Executive therefore agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any such agreements by the Executive, the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief without proof of actual damages or posting of any bond or other security.

(b) Escrow. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may elect to retain and place in a third party escrow all or a portion of any payments due under Sections 2(c) and 2(d) for the first measurement year to satisfy any amounts which the Company believes in good faith are due to it or to any other Buyer Indemnified Party (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) pursuant to Section 8.2 of the Purchase Agreement (the “Claims”).
