2. Payments Upon Termination of Employment. If during the Termination Period the employment of Executive shall terminate, other than by reason of a Nonqualifying Termination, and Executive agrees upon such termination to execute a release, in the same form as attached hereto as Exhibit A, with respect to all tort and contract claims, as well as claims brought under all applicable federal, state or local statutes, laws, regulations or ordinances, then the Company shall pay to Executive (or Executive’s beneficiary or estate) within thirty (30) calendar days after the Company’s receipt of the signed release (and upon the expiration of any revocation rights in the release), as compensation for services rendered to the Company, a lump-sum cash amount equal to the sum of:

(a) Executive’s base salary through the Date of Termination and any unpaid bonus for the fiscal year ending prior to the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid;

(b) A pro rata portion of Executive’s annual bonus in an amount at least equal to: (i) the greater of (A) 50% (or such higher percentage as shall then be applicable to Executive pursuant to the Euramax Incentive Bonus Plan (such plan being the “Bonus Plan” and such higher percentage being the “Higher Percentage”) for the fiscal year in which the Change of Control occurs) of Executive’s annualized base salary for the fiscal year in which the Change of Control occurs, and (B) 50% (or such Higher Percentage for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs) of Executive’s annualized base salary for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Date of Termination occurs, in either case, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365);

(d) Three times Executive’s annualized rate of base salary in effect 30 days prior to the Date of Termination (disregarding any change therein which constitutes Good Reason hereunder); and

(e) Three times 50% of Executive’s annualized base salary for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Date of Termination occurs (disregarding any change therein which constitutes Good Reason hereunder).

Any amount paid pursuant to Section 2 shall be in lieu of any other amount of severance relating to salary or bonus continuation to be received by Executive upon termination of employment of Executive under any severance plan or policy of the Company during the Termination Period. After the Termination Period, if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to receive severance in accordance with whatever severance plans and policies that the Company or the surviving entity after the Change of Control has in place for similarly situated employees on the Date of Termination, giving full service credit under all such plans for the period prior to the Change of Control during which Executive was employed by the Company.

3. Certain Additional Payments by the Company.

(a) Excess Parachute Payment. If any payments to be received by the Executive, including payments under this Agreement, either alone or in conjunction with any other payments or benefits made available to the Executive in connection with the termination of the Executive’s employment or a Change of Control of the Company result in Executive’s incurring the tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) on “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code, the Company will pay to Executive an additional amount (the “Gross Up Payment”) necessary to reimburse Executive on an after-tax basis (including FICA, excise taxes, interest and penalties) for the Excise Tax. In determining the amount of the Gross Up Payment, Executive will be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross Up Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of taxation in the state and locality of Executive’s residence on the Date of Termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes.

(b) The Executive agrees that he will not report any payments received from the Company following a Change of Control to the IRS as being subject to the Excise Tax; provided that, if Executive receives and provides to the Company a written opinion from Executive’s tax counsel or from an accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Company that it is reasonably likely that Executive will be subject to the Excise Tax or a penalty as a result of reporting such payments on such basis, the Company shall within 30 days after the receipt of such opinion, either (i) promptly pay the amount of the Excise Tax and the Gross-Up Payment as provided in Section 3(a) hereof prior to the time such Excise Tax is due to Executive, which Excise Tax amount Executive covenants to pay to the IRS within 10 days after Executive’s receipt thereof from the Company or (ii) provide Executive with an opinion effective as of the time of Executive’s filing of his return relating to such payments, addressed to Executive from a

tax advisor or counsel reasonably acceptable to Executive, which provides that there is a reasonable basis as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6662-3(b)(3) for reporting the payments received by Executive from the Company following a Change of Control to the IRS as not being subject to the Excise Tax. If the IRS challenges Executive’s position that the payments are not subject to the Excise Tax, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion and at its sole expense and with the Executive’s co-operation, to defend that position and negotiate, dispute or litigate with the IRS in whatever forums the Company considers appropriate. Any Gross-Up Payment will only be made when such dispute is finally resolved or determined by final non-appealable authority.

4. Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from all payments due to Executive (or his beneficiary or estate) hereunder all taxes which, by applicable federal, state, local or other law, the Company is required to withhold therefrom.

5. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective on the date hereof and shall continue in effect until the first anniversary of the date hereof; provided, however, if on the first anniversary of the date hereof, the Company or its shareholders are party to a definitive agreement the consummation of which would result in a Change of Control, the term of this Agreement shall be automatically extended through the consummation of such Change of Control or its earlier abandonment or termination. This Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of twenty-four (24) months after a Change of Control, if such Change of Control shall have occurred during the term of this Agreement provided above. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5 to the contrary, this Agreement shall terminate if Executive or the Company terminates Executive’s employment prior to a Change of Control, except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 1(e) or the last paragraph of Section 1(j).

6. Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective on the date hereof and shall continue until the first to occur of (a) termination of Executive’s employment with the Company prior to a Change of Control (except if such termination is pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 1(e) or the last paragraph of Section 1(j) hereof), (b) a Nonqualifying Termination, (c) the end of the Termination Period, or (d) expiration in accordance with Section 5.

7. Scope of Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to entitle Executive to continued employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries, and if Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate prior to a Change of Control, Executive shall have no further rights under this Agreement (except if such termination is pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 1(e) or the last paragraph of Section 1(j) hereof)); provided, however, that any termination of Executive’s employment during the Termination Period shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement.

8. Successors; Binding Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall not be terminated by any merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar form of corporate reorganization of the Company or any such type of transaction involving the Company or any other member of the Company Group (a “Business

Combination”). In the event of any Business Combination, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the surviving or resulting corporation or the Person to which such assets are transferred (the “Surviving Company”) and such Surviving Company shall be treated as the Company hereunder.

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If Executive shall die and, under the terms of this Agreement, any payment would be required to Executive hereunder, , all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to such Person or Persons appointed in writing by Executive to receive such amounts or, if no Person is so appointed, to Executive’s estate.

9. Notice.

or to such other address as either party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.

(b) A written notice of Executive’s Date of Termination by the Company or Executive, as the case may be, to the other, shall (1) indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (2) to the extent applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (3) specify the termination date. The failure by Executive or the Company to set forth in such notice any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of Executive or the Company hereunder or preclude Executive or the Company from asserting such fact or circumstances in enforcing Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

10. Full Settlement. Payment by the Company of its obligations hereunder and performance of the Company’s other obligations hereunder shall be in lieu and in full settlement of all other severance obligations to Executive under any severance or employment agreement between the Executive and any member of the Company Group, excluding other benefits

specifically provided by the Company to Executive contingent upon a Change of Control, if any, as approved by the Board and any payments to which Executive is entitled under the Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. In no event shall Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement and such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment and shall not be reduced by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by the Executive to the Company.

11. Governing Law, Validity. The interpretation, construction and performance of this agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the state of Delaware without regard to the principle of conflicts of laws. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not affect the validity or enforeceability of any other provision of this agreement, which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

13. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified or waived unless such modification or waiver is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and by a duly authorized officer of the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. Failure by Executive or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or to assert any right Executive or the Company may have hereunder shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the rights of, and benefits payable to, Executive, Executive’s estate or Executive’s beneficiaries pursuant to this Agreement are in addition to any rights of, or benefits payable to, Executive, Executive’s estate or Executive’s beneficiaries under any other employee benefit plan or compensation program of the Company.

14. Confidential Information. Executive hereby agrees that, if there is a Change of Control and Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason other than a Nonqualifying Termination either prior to the Change of Control pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 1(e) or the last paragraph of Section 1(j) hereof or after the Change of Control during the Termination Period, Executive agrees that he will not disclose any Confidential Information of the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or Affiliates that came into his knowledge during his employment by the Company without the prior written consent of the Company. “Confidential Information” means any data or information that the Company treats as confidential, that is valuable to the Company and that is not known to the public or to vendors or to competitors of the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

outstanding stock (as determined under Section 280G(b)(5)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 280G), which approval the Company shall obtain prior to the execution of a binding contract for a merger or other transaction which would result in a Change of Control.. The Executive and the Company acknowledge that in seeking such approval, they will use their best efforts to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 280G.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company and Executive has executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
