With a copy to:
Dear Bart:
This agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) will serve to confirm our agreement regarding the consulting services you will provide to ARAMARK, and the status of your benefits, following your retirement and separation from employment. For purposes of this Letter Agreement, the term ARAMARK will include ARAMARK Holdings Corporation, ARAMARK Corporation and all subsidiary and affiliated and successor companies of each of them.
We have agreed with you as follows:
1. | Retirement and Consulting: |
(a) | Retirement. Your employment with ARAMARK will terminate with your voluntary retirement on May 15, 2009. As a consequence of your retirement, you agree that you are not entitled to any severance pay or other severance benefits under the Agreement Relating to Employment and Post-Employment Competition between you and ARAMARK Corporation dated as of June 6, 2007 (the “Agreement Relating to Employment and Post-Employment Competition”), or otherwise. You will receive payment for any earned, accrued and unused vacation through the date of your retirement. Such payment will be made with your last regular paycheck. |
(b) | Consulting Services. Subsequent to your retirement, we agree that commencing on the Consulting Effective Date (defined below) and during the Consulting Period (defined below), you will be retained, and you agree to serve, as a consultant to ARAMARK, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Letter Agreement. Unless otherwise requested by ARAMARK, you will provide your consulting services to the Chairman and |

Chief Executive Officer of ARAMARK (the “Chairman”). During the Consulting Period, you will provide such consulting services and advice as you and the Chairman deem reasonable and necessary to assist ARAMARK in, among other things, transitioning your duties as General Counsel of ARAMARK to your successor. |
2. | Consulting Effective Date and Consulting Period: The term of your consultancy under this Letter Agreement commences on May 16, 2009 (the “Consulting Effective Date”), and will remain in effect for one year (the “Consulting Period”). The term of the Consulting Period and the provisions of this Letter Agreement may be earlier terminated or extended in writing by agreement of the parties (and any reference to the Consulting Period herein shall be deemed to refer to such earlier terminated or extended period). |
3. | Consulting Services Time Commitment: Unless and until otherwise mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties, during the Consulting Period your services generally will be performed during regular business hours, three business days a week (to be selected by you in your discretion) at ARAMARK’s corporate headquarters (or at such other location as you and ARAMARK may agree), and you agree to devote substantially all of your business time during such days to providing the services described above. Days spent traveling in the performance of your services hereunder will be considered days that you provide consulting services under this Letter Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Consulting Period you shall be entitled to take the same number of days away from the provision of your services hereunder as you would have been entitled to take as vacation and paid time off days during the same period of time if you had remained an employee of ARAMARK during such period. |
4. | Consulting Fee: Subject to the provisions of Section 14 of this Letter Agreement, you will receive a monthly fee of $41,666.67, payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month during which you perform services hereunder (prorated for any partial month’s services), for a total consulting fee of $500,000.00 due in respect of the full twelve-month period of the Consulting Period (the “Consulting Fee”). In the event that the term of the Consulting Period is terminated by ARAMARK prior to May 16, 2010 other than for Cause (as such term is defined in and determined under the Agreement Relating to Employment and Post-Employment Competition), you will continue to be entitled to receive, on a monthly basis, payment of the unpaid balance of the Consulting Fee through May 16, 2010. In the event that the term of the Consulting Period is terminated by ARAMARK for Cause or by you for any reason prior to May 16, 2010, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties, you will cease to have any further right to receive any unpaid portion of the Consulting Fee (other than any portion of the Consulting Fee payable in arrears for service performed prior to such date of termination). |
