RECITALS:
A. IBP is in the business of manufacturing, selling, distributing and installing building and other related products.
B. Service Company desires to provide, and IBP desires to receive, certain services relating to the operation of its business, including corporate overhead and administrative services, upon the terms and conditions contained herein.
C. The Investors are investors in IBP Holdings II, LLC, the parent of IBP, and IBP and Service Company desire to include the Investors as parties to and beneficiaries of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Services. IBP hereby retains Service Company to provide certain executive, management, administrative, corporate overhead, clerical and other support services, including, without limitation, accounting and financial services, human resources services, information services and risk management services, as more fully described on Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively, the “Services”) and to prepare status and other reports relating to the Services, upon the terms and conditions contained herein. The Services shall be provided by employees and consultants of Service Company and its Affiliates, specifically including, without limitation, Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx.
2. Scope of Services. Service Company agrees to provide IBP with such Services during the term of this Agreement and to use its best efforts in the performance of its duties hereunder. The Services will be provided in substantially the same manner and to substantially the same extent as services are provided by Service Company to Installed Building Products, LLC under the Amended and Restated Management Agreement originally dated as of March 29, 2004 (the “IBP Management Agreement”), unless otherwise specifically provided herein; provided, however, that the Services shall at all times be provided in a timely, competent, diligent and professional manner.
3. Service Fee.
3.1 Service Fee. In consideration of the performance of the Services, Service Company will be entitled to a monthly service fee (the “Service Fee”) equal to the 2% of IBP’s Monthly Revenue. If (i) payment of the Service Fee would result in IBP’s EBITDA being lower than forecasted (as updated for each acquisition) or (ii) Service Company fails to provide the Services as required by this Agreement and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure to Service Company, then in either case Service Company shall not be entitled to any Service Fee during such period and will only be entitled to a Service Fee from and after such time as IBP’s EBITDA is no longer lower than forecasted or Service Company resumes providing the Services hereunder, as the case may be. Any undisputed Service Fee will be payable promptly upon IBP’s receipt of Service Company’s invoice therefor. In the event that IBP pays Service Company an amount in excess of the Service Fee owed by IBP pursuant to this Section 3.1, such excess will be remitted by Service Company to IBP within ten (10) days of receipt by Service Company.
3.2 Annual Budget. Service Company shall prepare and deliver to the Investors a combined annual budget for Service Company in respect of its services hereunder and under the IBP Management Agreement. The content of such annual budget and the terms of the annual budget process shall be governed by the IBP Management Agreement.
3.3 Inspection Rights; Dispute. Service Company will maintain complete and accurate records with respect to its calculation of the Service Fee. During the term of this Agreement and for two (2) years thereafter, IBP and the Investors, at their expense, will have the right to examine and audit such records during regular business hours upon reasonable prior notice to Service Company. In the event IBP or the Investors disagree with any of Service Company’s calculations of the Service Fee, IBP or the Investors, as applicable, will provide written notice to Service Company setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such disagreement and the amount of the Service Fee that IBP or the Investors, as applicable, believes is the correct amount. Thereafter, Service Company and IBP or the Investors, as applicable, will cooperate in good faith to resolve such disagreement. If Service Company and IBP or the Investors, as applicable, cannot resolve such disagreement within sixty (60) days of Service Company’s receipt of such notice, Service Company and IBP or the Investors, as applicable, will retain within ten (10) days after such 60-day period a nationally recognized independent accounting firm in the United States acceptable to both Service Company and IBP or the Investors, as applicable (the “Independent Accountants”), to review and decide the appropriate amount of any disputed item pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. If Service Company, IBP and the Investors are unable to agree upon the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accountants shall be one of the following three (3) public accounting firms (or its successor) determined after Service Company and the Investors, in that order, each exclude one such accounting firm: PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG LLP and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP. The decision of the Independent Accountants will be made within thirty (30) days of the date they are retained and will be final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, Service Company and IBP or the Investors, as applicable. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants will be paid by
-2-
the party whose estimate of the Service Fee in dispute is furthest from the Independent Accountants’ calculation of the Service Fee in dispute. The provisions contained in this Section 3.3 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
4. Term; Termination.
4.1 Term. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, the term of this Agreement will commence on the date hereof and will continue until the date upon which no Investor owns any equity interest in IBP Holdings II, LLC; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the event of a Change of Control and upon the request of the Investors prior to such Change of Control, the term of this Agreement shall continue for a period of up to one (1) year after the date of the Change of Control, and (ii) for as long as any sums are outstanding under the Financing Documents, the term of this Agreement shall not terminate without the written consent of Fifth Third.
4.2 Default or Insolvency. In addition to expiration of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.1, this Agreement may be terminated by written notice to the other parties as follows: (a) Service Company may terminate this Agreement if at any time IBP fails to pay any undisputed Service Fee (other than due to any limitation on the amount of such fees that may be paid by IBP during the continuation of an event of default under the Financing Documents) and such failure continues for a thirty (30) day period after written notice of such failure to IBP; and (b) either IBP, with the prior written approval of the Investors, or the Investors may terminate this Agreement if at any time Service Company materially fails to provide the Services in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and such material failure continues for a thirty (30) day period after written notice of such failure to Service Company.
4.3 Agreement Not to Compete or Solicit.
(a) Service Company agrees that, except for the provision of services pursuant to the IBP Management Agreement, during the Noncompete Period, it shall not, directly or indirectly, own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any business competing with the businesses of IBP or any of its Affiliates, as such businesses exist or are in process during the term of this Agreement within any geographical area in which IBP or any of its Affiliates engage or have plans to engage in such businesses, including, without limitation, any geographic area where IBP or any of its Affiliates provide their products or services or where their products or services are used by any of their customers. Nothing herein shall prohibit Service Company from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation that is publicly traded, so long as Service Company has no active participation in the business of such corporation.
(b) The parties hereto acknowledge that the individual, beneficial equity owners of Service Company also own and operate entities that are in the business of buying and developing real estate and constructing single- and multi-family housing and office buildings (collectively, the “Xxxxxxx’ Construction Business”). As part of its business, the Xxxxxxx’ Construction Business purchases insulation, basement waterproofing, gutters, garage doors, shelving, shower doors and mirrors and hires service providers (including IBP) to install such products in its single- and multi-family housing and office buildings. The parties hereto
-3-
acknowledge that nothing in this Section 4.3 shall prevent the Xxxxxxx’ Construction Business from continuing the activities described in this Section 4.3(b); provided, however, that any transactions between the Xxxxxxx’ Construction Business and IBP Holdings II, LLC, IBP or its direct or indirect subsidiaries shall be at arms-length.
(c) During the Noncompete Period, Service Company shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) except in connection with employee relocations to and from Installed Building Products, LLC and its Affiliates, induce or attempt to induce any employee of IBP or any of its Affiliates to leave the employ of IBP or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between IBP or any such Affiliate and any employee thereof, (ii) hire any Person who was an employee of IBP or any of its Affiliates at any time during the term of this Agreement or (iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee or other business relation of IBP or any of its Affiliates to cease doing business with IBP or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and IBP or any such Affiliate (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding IBP or any of its Affiliates).
(d) If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 4.3, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Service Company acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 4.3 are reasonable and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with its legal counsel.
(e) In the event of an alleged breach or violation by Service Company of this Section 4.3, the Noncompete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.
(f) For the purposes of this Section 4.3, “Noncompete Period” means the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the second anniversary of the termination of this Agreement, subject to extension pursuant to Section 4.3(e) above; provided, however, that the Noncompete Period shall terminate upon a Change of Control, provided that if in connection with such Change of Control there is any separate consideration paid by the purchaser in such Change of Control for a covenant not to compete, such consideration shall be shared among the equity owners of IBP Holdings II, LLC pro rata in proportion to their ownership interests in such entity. The provisions contained in this Section 4.3 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
4.4 Consequences of Termination. Except as expressly provided herein, upon termination of this Agreement all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder will immediately terminate, provided that IBP’s obligation to pay any undisputed, outstanding Service Fee, any claim that a party may have with respect to another party’s breach of a covenant hereunder and the terms of this Section 4.4 and Sections 3.3, 4.3, 6, 7, 8 and 10 each will survive such termination.
-4-
5. Nature of Relationship. All work or obligations performed by Service Company in connection with the Services will be performed as an independent contractor and Service Company acknowledges that it does not have authority to obligate or bind IBP or any Investor in any way, except as expressly authorized in Section 2 above with respect to IBP. No provision of this Agreement will be construed to create a partnership or a joint venture between the parties hereto, and except as provided in the previous sentence, no provision of this Agreement will be construed to create an agency.
6. Confidentiality. Service Company acknowledges that during its performance of the Services it will receive and have access to certain data, reports, standards, specifications, customer information and other confidential, technical or proprietary information of IBP, including, without limitation, any written materials generated by IBP containing such confidential, technical or proprietary information and any customer lists (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). Service Company will perform the Services in a manner reasonably designed to protect the Confidential Information from improper use or disclosure. Service Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to train and supervise its employees to achieve such result. Except in conjunction with its performance of the Services, Service Company will not disclose any Confidential Information to any Person that is not a party to this Agreement, unless (i) such information is in the public domain (other than as a result of disclosure by Service Company in violation of this Section 6), (ii) such disclosure is required by law, by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, administrative body or governmental body, or by subpoena, summons or legal process, or by rule or regulation, (iii) such disclosure is made to directors, officers, representatives, agents and employees of Service Company in the course of performing Service Company’s obligations or enforcing Service Company’s rights under this Agreement, provided that Service Company shall be liable for any breach of this Section 6 by any such representative or agent, or (iv) such disclosure is made in connection with Service Company’s normal informational or reporting activities to Service Company’s Affiliates, auditors, attorneys or other agents, provided that Service Company shall be liable for any breach of this Section 6 by any such Affiliate, auditor, attorney or other agent. Service Company acknowledges and agrees that any disclosure by Service Company in violation of this Section 6 will cause irreparable harm to IBP and the Investors for which money damages alone would be insufficient, and Service Company agrees that in the event of any such violation IBP and/or the Investors will be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief. The remedies described herein will not be the exclusive remedies for any such violation but will be in addition to all other remedies available to IBP and/or the Investors at law or in equity. The provisions contained in this Section 6 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
7. Intellectual Property.

Within thirty (30) days after the termination of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto will deliver to the other any of the Confidential Information, Intellectual Property or other proprietary property that it, as a Recipient, then possesses, including, without limitation, all written materials or computer disks containing Confidential Information or Intellectual Property, whether prepared by Recipient or Disclosing Party. The provisions of this Section 7 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
