| 1. | EMPLOYMENT |
| a. | The Employer agrees to employ the Executive pursuant to the terms and conditions described in this Agreement, including the appendices to this Agreement, and the Executive hereby accepts and agrees to such employment.

For the purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the part of the Executive shall be considered “wilful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omissions were in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Employer and its affiliates. |

In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason, the Executive will receive pay and benefits as if terminated by the Employer without Cause under Section 9 c., below, and the termination shall be regarded as a termination without Cause for purposes of the Option Plan, the PSU Plan, and the RSU Plan. In this Agreement, “Good Reason” means a material adverse change by RBA Pubco or an affiliate, without the Executive’ s consent, to the Executive’s position, authority, duties, responsibilities, Executive’s place of residence, Base Salary or the potential short-term or long-term incentive bonus the Executive is eligible to earn, but does not include (1) a change in the Executive’s duties and/or responsibilities arising from a change in the scope or nature of RBA Pubco’s business operations, provided such change does not adversely affect the Executive’s position or authority or (2) a change across the board affecting similar executives in a similar fashion. |

| ii. | continuation of all applicable PSU and RSU rights held by the Executive in accordance with the PSU and RSU grant agreements, and the terms and conditions of the PSU and RSU Plan; |
| iii. | immediate accelerated vesting of all unvested stock options, with the Executive having 90 days from the date of termination to exercise such options, subject to the terms and conditions of the Option Plan and the applicable individual option agreements; and |
| d. | continued extended health and dental benefits coverage at active employee rates until the earlier of the first anniversary of the termination of the Executive’s employment or the date on which the Executive begins new full-time employment, or paying for such period of time the Employer’s share of the costs of such benefits. |
| e. | Resignation: The Executive may terminate his employment with the Employer at any time by providing the Employer with three (3) months’ notice in writing to that effect. If the Executive provides the Employer with written notice under this Section, the Employer may waive such notice, in whole or in part, in which case the Employer will pay the Executive the Base Salary only for the amount of time remaining in that notice period and the Executive’s employment will terminate on the earlier date specified by the Employer without any further compensation. |
In the event of termination by the Executive as provided in this section, all unvested stock options held by the Executive will immediately be void on the termination date of the Executive’s employment, with the Executive having 90 days from said date to exercise any vested stock options held by the Executive. The rights of the Executive with respect to any PSUs or RSUs will be as set forth in the PSU Plan and RSU Plan with respect to termination by the Executive.
