9.Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any delivery of Awarded Shares to the Grantee, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of such delivery that the Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. The Grantee may elect that all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of the Awarded Shares to be delivered to the Grantee.

11.No Employment Contract; Right to Terminate Employment. The grant of the Awarded Shares to the Grantee is a voluntary, discretionary award being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. The grant of the Awarded Shares and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. Nothing in this Agreement will give the Grantee any right to continue employment or to Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate the employment of the Grantee at any time.

12.Relation to Other Benefits. Any economic or other benefit to the Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Grantee may be entitled under any profit‑sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.

The Grantee will render all reasonable assistance to the Company and its agents in preparing applications and other documents and do all things that may be reasonable and necessary to protect the rights of the Company and vest in it all such inventions, discoveries, applications, and patents, even if the Grantee is no longer employed by the Company, provided that the Company compensates the Grantee at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by the Grantee on assistance occurring after termination of employment.

(c)That upon termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Grantee will immediately deliver to the Company all drawings, blueprints, sketches, notebooks, formulae, notes, manuals and other documents reflecting Confidential Information or Innovations, and the Grantee will not retain any copies or versions of such information.

14.Improper Use or Disclosure of Confidential Information. In consideration of the Awarded Shares, the Grantee agrees to the following terms on maintaining confidentiality of certain non-public information:

(a)For purposes of this Section 14, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its parent, subsidiary, or affiliated companies.

(b)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company, and at any time thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not directly or indirectly do any of the following:

(i)    use, or attempt to use, any Confidential Information or Third Party Confidential Information, except as required for the performance of the Grantee’s lawful job duties for the Company;

(ii)    disclose, or attempt to disclose, any Confidential Information to any person or entity who, at the time of the disclosure or attempted disclosure, does not have access to the information that was authorized by an agent of the Company with actual authority to provide such access; and/or

(iii)    disclose, or attempt to disclose, any Third Party Confidential Information to any person or entity who, at the time of the disclosure or attempted disclosure, does not have access to the information that was authorized by (1) an agent of the Company with actual authority to provide such access and/or (2) an agent of the owner of the Third Party Confidential Information with actual authority to provide such access.

(c)Nothing in Section 14 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from exercising any rights conferred by Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act. Additionally, nothing in Section 14 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from exercising any other rights that are conferred by federal, state, and/or local law and that an agreement such as this is prohibited by law from restricting. Further, nothing in Section 14 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from reporting conduct the Grantee reasonably, and in good faith, believes to be a violation of federal, state, and/or local law. However, in exercising such rights or in making such reports, the Grantee must act in good faith and not unreasonably or unnecessarily disclose any Confidential Information or Third Party Confidential Information. Furthermore, if any Confidential Information is to be disclosed outside of the Company in exercising such rights or in making such reports, then the Grantee is required to provide prior written notice of the disclosure to Company management, so long as such prior written notice is not prohibited by law. If any Third Party Confidential Information is to be disclosed outside of the Company in exercising such rights or in making such reports, then the Grantee is required to provide prior written notice of the disclosure to Company management and to the management of any affected owner of Third Party Confidential Information, so long as such prior written notice is not prohibited by law. The Grantee must provide the prior written notice on or before the moment the Grantee makes the disclosure.

15.Unfair Competition. In consideration of the Awarded Shares, the Grantee agrees to be prohibited from engaging in unfair competition with the Company both during and after employment as follows:

(a)For purposes of this Section 15, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

(b)The Grantee acknowledges that, by working for the Company, he or she will: (i) have access to, learn about, and work with the Company’s valuable and unique Confidential Information, all of which the Company developed through substantial, time, effort, and expense; (ii) be in contact and develop relationships with Third Parties, the contacts and relationships with whom the Company developed through substantial time, effort, and expense; and (iii) receive valuable training, knowledge, and expertise, some or all of which the Grantee gained in whole or in part through substantial time, effort, and expense by the Company. For these reasons, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company has legitimate interests in restricting the Grantee’s competitive activities both during and after employment with the Company and that the restrictions contained in this Section 15 are necessary to protect those legitimate business interests, are designed to eliminate competition that would be unfair to the Company, are reasonable in time and scope, and do not confer a benefit upon the Company which is disproportionate to any detriment to the Grantee.

(c)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company, and for a period of one (1) year thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not Compete with the Company, or prepare to Compete with the Company, within the Protected Territory. This restriction applies regardless of whether the Grantee is physically present in the Protected Territory engaging in prohibited competition or whether the Grantee uses means of communication, such as the telephone or the Internet, to engage in prohibited competition within the Protected Territory while physically outside of the Protected Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Grantee from purchasing or owning less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded securities of any competitor of the Company’s, provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that the Grantee is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such competitor.

(d)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not, to any tangible or intangible detriment of the Company, directly or indirectly do any of the following:

(ii)    induce in any way, or attempt to induce in any way, any current or prospective employee of the Company to decline any prospective employment with the Company or to terminate his or her current employment with the Company.

16.Miscellaneous and Remedies. In consideration of the Awarded Shares, the Grantee agrees to be bound by the following:

(a)For purposes of this Section 16, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

(b)The Grantee represents that the Grantee currently has no restrictions on competition imposed by any agreement with any prior employer, including without limitation any non-competition restriction or non-solicitation restriction, that would prevent the Grantee from working for the Company and performing all lawful duties that the Company may require of the Grantee. By signing this Agreement, the Grantee certifies that the Grantee has made every good faith effort to determine whether any such restrictions exist. The Grantee agrees that the Grantee is prohibited from using or disclosing any confidential business information or trade secrets of a prior employer. This prohibits without limitation any disclosure of such information or trade secrets to any employee of the Company or any use of such information or trade secrets as part of the Grantee’s job duties with the Company. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company will never directly or indirectly request Employee to improperly use or disclose any prior employer’s confidential information or trade secrets. If any Company employee does make such a request, the Grantee shall immediately report the request to the Company’s Human Resources Department.

(c)The Grantee agrees to notify any of the Grantee’s actual or prospective employers of the existence and terms of this Agreement and agrees that the Company may notify such employers of the terms of this Agreement as well.

(d)The Grantee agrees that any breach, threatened breach, or attempted breach by the Grantee of Sections 13, 14, and/or 15 of this Agreement will cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Company that cannot be adequately remedied by money damages and will entitle the Company to immediate injunctive relief and/or specific performance in any court of competent jurisdiction, as well as to all other legal or equitable remedies and Uniform Trade Secrets Act remedies, where applicable, to which the Company may be entitled.

(e)If a jury or court of competent jurisdiction finds that the Grantee has breached Section 14 of this Agreement, and this finding becomes final after any appeals are exhausted, then the Grantee is liable to the Company, for each breach, in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Grantee’s last total annual compensation provided by the Company. The Grantee agrees that if the Grantee breaches Section 14 of this Agreement then Company will suffer actual damages in an amount that would be difficult if not impossible to determine and that the liquidated damages imposed for a breach of Section 14 of this Agreement represent the damages fairly estimated by the parties to result from any breach and do not constitute a penalty. Furthermore, the Grantee agrees that the imposition of these liquidated damages does not demonstrate or imply that the Company would not suffer irreparable harm from any breach of this Agreement and does not render improper the award of injunctive relief.

(f)The Grantee agrees that if the Grantee breaches, threatens to breach, or attempts to breach any of the provisions of Section 15(c) following termination of employment with the Company, then the post-employment restricted period for Section 15(c) shall be extended to encompass the period of one (1) year from the date the Company obtains a court order providing preliminary or permanent injunctive relief enjoining the Grantee from any or all acts and/or omissions contrary to Section 15(c). Similarly, if the Grantee breaches, threatens to breach, or attempts to breach any of the provisions of Sections 15(d) and/or 15(e) following termination of employment with the Company, then the restricted period for Sections 15(d) and/or 15(e) shall be extended to encompass the period of two (2) years from the date the Company obtains a court order providing preliminary or permanent injunctive relief enjoining the Grantee from any acts and/or omissions contrary to Sections 15(d) and/or 15(e).

(g)If the Company is, in its sole judgment, compelled to assert a cause of action against the Grantee to enforce or remedy any breach, threatened breach, or attempted breach of Sections 13, 14, and/or 15 of this Agreement, then the Grantee agrees to reimburse the Company for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable expenses incurred in the investigation and successful prosecution or settlement of any such cause of action in addition to any damages or other remedies obtained by the Company.

(h)If any part of the restrictions contained in Section 15 of this Agreement are found unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the parties agree that they intend for the court to enforce the restrictions to the extent reasonable or enforceable and to not decline enforcement. The parties agree that, in any litigation over Section 15 of this Agreement, they will jointly advocate this position to the court and/or any jury.

Information about the Grantee and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the Plan.

(l)“Third Party Confidential Information” means any and all non-public information provided to Employee, on a confidential basis, by or on behalf of any existing or potential client, vendor, or other person or entity in an existing or potential business relationship with the Company. Additionally, the term “Third Party Confidential Information” includes the aforementioned non-public information that has become public because a person or entity breached an obligation to maintain its confidentiality.

(m)For purposes of this Agreement, the “Company” shall include any Affiliate of the Company.

2.Provisions of the Plan Controlling. The Grantee specifically understands and agrees that the Awarded Units are being granted under the Plan, and are being granted to the Grantee as Performance Units pursuant to the Plan, copies of which the Grantee acknowledges the Grantee has read and understands and by which the Grantee agrees to be bound. The provisions of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference. Any capitalized term in this Agreement that is not defined in the Agreement shall have the definition set forth in the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan will control.

3.Performance Unit Accounts. The number of Performance Units granted under this Agreement shall be credited to the Grantee’s Account. The Account shall be maintained on the books of the Company until full payment of the balance thereof has been made to the Grantee (or the Grantee’s beneficiaries if the Grantee is deceased). No funds shall be set aside or earmarked for the Account, which shall be purely a bookkeeping device.

4.Vesting of Awarded Units.

(a)Unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines that the acceleration of vesting is appropriate, the Performance Restrictions shall lapse and Awarded Units shall be earned and vest only upon both (1) the Committee’s certification of the results in (i) and (ii) below (including interpolation between the results, expressed as a percentage of the target except as otherwise noted below) and (2) the Grantee’s continued service through the last day of the Performance Period (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement in the events of death, Disability, Retirement, or a Change in Control). If those conditions are satisfied, the total number of Awarded Units will be equal to the sum of Awarded Units under subsections (i) and (ii) below.

(i)    RTSR Awarded Units shall be earned and vest, and the related Performance Restrictions on such number of RTSR Awarded Units shall lapse, based on the Company’s RTSR over the Performance Period in accordance with the following schedule:

*RTSR (Relative Total Shareholder Return) means the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) compared to the TSRs of the TSR Peer Group. TSR means the growth in the price of a share of the Company’s common stock, calculated in a manner pursuant to Exhibit A. Payout shall be based upon the Company’s TSR compared to the TSR for the companies in the Peer Group using the PERCENTILE function in Microsoft Excel to determine the TSR value at the percentages listed in the schedule above.

** TSR Peer Group means the peer group of companies set forth on Exhibit B hereto.

(ii)    Revenue Goal Awarded Units shall be earned and vest, and the related Performance Restrictions on such number of Revenue Goal Awarded Units shall lapse, based on the Company’s achievement of the Revenue Goals listed below as of the last day of the Performance Period in accordance with the following schedule:

*Revenue Goal means growth in revenue during the Performance Period as calculated in the attached Exhibit C; provided, however, that the calculation of the Revenue Goal will exclude the impact of extraordinary events listed in Section 14(e) of the Plan.

(iii)    With respect to both RTSR and the Revenue Goals, if a performance goal is achieved at a level that is greater than the minimum requirements to trigger vesting of a number of Awarded Units but less than the next highest level that triggers a higher number of the Awarded Units to vest, the applicable number of Awarded Units will be linearly interpolated. Linear interpolation means that an increase in a goal above one specified level but below another level will result in a similar incremental increase in the vested number of Awarded Units. Such linear interpolation will be calculated in a manner consistent with the example in Exhibit C of this Agreement.

(iv)    After the number of Awarded Units is calculated for a specific performance goal, the number of Awarded Units calculated under paragraph (i) above (for RTSR) and paragraph (ii) above (for Revenue) will be added together, and the sum produce the total number of Awarded Units that vest under this Agreement.

(b)As soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period, the Committee will certify in writing whether the Performance Restrictions have been met for the Performance Period and determine the number of Awarded Units, if any, that will be payable to the Grantee; provided, however, that if the Committee certifies that the Performance Restrictions have been met, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, adjust the number of Awarded Units payable to the Grantee with respect to the Award to reflect the effect of extraordinary events upon the Performance Restrictions, as provided under the Plan. The date of the Committee’s certification under this Section shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Certification Date.” The Company will notify the Grantee (or the executors or administrators of the Grantee’s estate, if appropriate) of the Committee’s certification following the Certification Date (such notice being the “Determination Notice”).

(c)Except as set forth below, if Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant is terminated for any reason prior to the Certification Date, the Grantee shall forfeit all Awarded Units credited to the Grantee’s Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is Retirement eligible on or before the Grant Date, in the event that Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates on or after the first day of the thirteenth month of the Performance Period as a result of Retirement, the Grantee shall vest in a portion of the Awarded Units after the Certification Date; provided that the Committee actually certifies that the Performance Restrictions for the Performance Period have been met. Such portion shall be equal to (i) one-third of the Awarded Units if the Grantee’s termination occurs more than 12 months but no greater than 24 months after the start of the Performance Period and (ii) two-thirds of the Awarded Units if the Grantee’s termination occurs more than 24 months after the start of the Performance Period but before the Certification Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means the Grantee’s attainment of age 60 and 10 years of Service. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates any time after the start of the Performance Period because of either (i) Grantee’s Disability or (ii) Grantee’s death, Grantee shall fully and immediately vest in all Awarded Units, calculated as though target performance had been achieved for each of the RTSR and Revenue Goals. If Grantee dies after Retirement but before the Certificate Date, Grantee’s termination of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant will be deemed to have occurred as a result of death and not Retirement.

5.Delivery of Shares. Once Awarded Units have vested under this Agreement, the Company will convert the Awarded Units in the Grantee’s Account into Shares on a one-for-one basis and deliver the total number of Shares due to the Grantee as soon as administratively possible after such date, but no later than the 15th day of the 3rd month after the end of the Performance Period; provided, however, that if the Awarded Units vested because Grantee’s termination of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant due to Grantee’s Disability or death, the Shares shall be delivered no later than the 15th day of the 3rd month after such termination date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, if, in the reasonable determination of the Company, the Grantee is a “specified employee” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then, if necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxes or interest under Code Section 409A, the Company shall not deliver the Shares otherwise payable upon the Grantee’s termination of Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant until the date that is at least 6 months following the Grantee’s termination and separation of service under Code Section 409A. The delivery of the Shares shall be subject to payment of the applicable withholding tax liability and the forfeiture provisions of this Agreement. If the Grantee dies before the Company has distributed any portion of the vested Awarded Units, the Company will transfer any Shares in accordance with the Grantee’s written beneficiary designation or to the Grantee’s estate if no written beneficiary designation is provided.

6.Dividend Equivalents but no Voting Rights. Unless and until Shares have been issued to the Grantee, the Grantee shall not have any privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Awarded Units subject to this Agreement or otherwise afford any rights to which Shares are entitled with respect to any such Awarded Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee shall be entitled to receive dividend equivalents with respect to the number of Awarded Units that vest. Each dividend equivalent represents the right to receive an amount equal to the dividends that are declared and paid during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the Certification Date with respect to the Share represented by the related vested Awarded Unit, subject to the same terms and conditions as Awarded Units under this Agreement. The dividend equivalents on the vested Awarded Unit shall be payable only when and to the extent that the underlying Awarded Unit vests and becomes settled. Any dividend equivalents will be distributed to the Grantee in accordance with Section 5 of this Agreement or forfeited, depending on whether or not the applicable Awarded Units have vested under this Agreement. Any such distributions will be made in (i) cash, for any dividend equivalents relating to cash dividends and/or (ii) Shares, for any dividend equivalents relating to Share dividends.

7.Additional Shares. If the Company pays a stock dividend or declares a stock split on or with respect to any of its Common Stock, or otherwise distributes securities of the Company to the holders of its Common Stock, the shares of stock or other securities of the Company issued with respect to the Awarded Units then subject to the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall be held in escrow and shall be distributed to the Grantee on the Certification Date, unless the Grantee forfeits the Awarded Units pursuant to Section 4 hereof, in which case the Grantee shall also forfeit the right to receive such stock or other securities. If the Company shall distribute to its shareholders shares of stock of another corporation, the shares of stock of such other corporation distributed with respect to the Awarded Units then subject to the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall be held in escrow and shall be distributed to the Grantee on such Certification Date, unless the Grantee forfeits the Awarded Units pursuant to Section 4 hereof, in which case the Grantee shall also forfeit the right to receive such stock.

8.Effect of Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 4, in the event of a Change in Control, no cancellation, termination, acceleration of vesting, lapse of any restriction (performance or otherwise), or settlement or other payment shall occur with respect to any Awarded Units, if and only if the Committee (as constituted immediately before the consummation of the Change in Control) reasonably determines in good faith before the Change in Control that (i) this outstanding Award will be honored or assumed, or new rights substituted (such honored, assumed, or substituted Award being referred to as a “Replacement Award”) by the successor, and (ii) such Replacement Award:

(i)be (A) based on shares of common stock that are traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange or (B) an award of cash having the same economic value;

(ii)provide the Grantee with rights and entitlements substantially equivalent to or better than the rights, terms and conditions applicable under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, an identical or better vesting schedule and identical or better timing and methods of payment;

(iii)have substantially equivalent economic value to the Awarded Units under this Agreement, determined at the time of the Change in Control; and

(iv)have terms and conditions that provide that in the event that the Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant is involuntarily terminated by the Company for any reason other than for Cause within two years following the Change in Control, any conditions on the Grantee’s rights under, or any restrictions on transfer applicable to, the Awarded Units shall be waived or shall lapse, as the case may be, and any performance-based restrictions shall be deemed to have been achieved at target level performance.

If, however, Replacement Awards are not granted in accordance with this section, restrictions on the Awarded Units shall terminate; any performance-based restrictions shall be deemed to have been achieved at target level performance; and such Awarded Units shall be immediately payable, except to the extent that later payment is necessary to comply with Code Section 409A.

9.Adjustments. The Awarded Units shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 17 of the Plan.

10.Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with any delivery of Shares to the Grantee, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of such delivery that the Grantee make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. The Grantee may elect that all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of the Shares to be delivered to the Grantee. If such election is made, the Shares so retained shall be credited against such withholding requirement at the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Plan) of a Share. In no event shall the Fair Market Value of Shares to be withheld pursuant to this Section 10 to satisfy applicable withholding taxes in connection with the benefit exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.

11.Notices. Any notices required or permitted by the terms of this Agreement or the Plan must be in writing, shall be delivered to the Grantee at his or her address on file with the Company or to the Company addressed as follows (or to such other address or addresses of which notice in the same manner has previously been given), and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered in person, (b) when dispatched by electronic mail or facsimile transfer, (c) one business day after having been dispatched by a nationally recognized overnight courier service or (d) three business days after being sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid:

12.No Employment Contract; Right to Terminate Employment. The grant of the Awarded Units to the Grantee is a voluntary, discretionary award being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. The grant of the Awarded Units and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. Nothing in this Agreement will give the Grantee any right to continue employment or to Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to terminate the employment of the Grantee at any time.

13.Relation to Other Benefits. Any economic or other benefit to the Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Grantee may be entitled under any profit‑sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company.

14.Innovations. In consideration of the Awarded Units, the Grantee agrees:

(a)For purposes of this Section 14, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its parent, subsidiary, or affiliated companies. All Innovations shall belong to and be the exclusive property of the Company.

(b)The Grantee will promptly disclose all Innovations to the Company and will assign all of the Grantee’s right, title and interest to such Innovations, whether in the United States and any foreign country, to the Company and its successors and assigns. The Grantee will from time to time, upon request and at the expense of the Company, sign all instruments necessary for the filing and prosecution of any copyrights, patents, mask works, and applications for letters patent of the United States or any foreign country which the Company may desire to file upon such inventions without additional compensation. The Grantee will render all reasonable assistance to the Company and its agents in preparing applications and other documents and do all things that may be reasonable and necessary to protect the rights of the Company and vest in it all such inventions, discoveries, applications, and patents, even if the Grantee is no longer employed by the Company, provided that the Company compensates the Grantee at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by the Grantee on assistance occurring after termination of employment.

(c)That upon termination of employment with the Company for any reason, the Grantee will immediately deliver to the Company all drawings, blueprints, sketches, notebooks, formulae, notes, manuals and other documents reflecting Confidential Information or Innovations, and the Grantee will not retain any copies or versions of such information.

15.Improper Use or Disclosure of Confidential Information. In consideration of the Awarded Units, the Grantee agrees to the following terms on maintaining confidentiality of certain non-public information:

(a)For purposes of this Section 15, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its parent, subsidiary, or affiliated companies.

(b)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company, and at any time thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not directly or indirectly do any of the following:

(i)    use, or attempt to use, any Confidential Information or Third Party Confidential Information, except as required for the performance of the Grantee’s lawful job duties for the Company;

(ii)    disclose, or attempt to disclose, any Confidential Information to any person or entity who, at the time of the disclosure or attempted disclosure, does not have access to the information that was authorized by an agent of the Company with actual authority to provide such access; and/or

(iii)    disclose, or attempt to disclose, any Third Party Confidential Information to any person or entity who, at the time of the disclosure or attempted disclosure, does not have access to the information that was authorized by (1) an agent of the Company with actual authority to provide such access and/or (2) an agent of the owner of the Third Party Confidential Information with actual authority to provide such access.

(c)Nothing in Section 15 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from exercising any rights conferred by Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act. Additionally, nothing in Section 15 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from exercising any other rights that are conferred by federal, state, and/or local law and that an agreement such as this is prohibited by law from restricting. Further, nothing in Section 15 of this Agreement restricts the Grantee from reporting conduct the Grantee reasonably, and in good faith, believes to be a violation of federal, state, and/or local law. However, in exercising such rights or in making such reports, the Grantee must act in good faith and not unreasonably or unnecessarily disclose any Confidential Information or Third Party Confidential Information. Furthermore, if any Confidential Information is to be disclosed outside of the Company in exercising such rights or in making such reports, then the Grantee is required to provide prior written notice of the disclosure to Company management, so long as such prior written notice is not prohibited by law. If any Third Party Confidential Information is to be disclosed outside of the Company in exercising such rights or in making such reports, then the Grantee is required to provide prior written notice of the disclosure to Company management and to the management of any affected owner of Third Party Confidential Information, so long as such prior written notice is not prohibited by law. The Grantee must provide the prior written notice on or before the moment the Grantee makes the disclosure.

16.Unfair Competition. In consideration of the Awarded Units, the Grantee agrees to be prohibited from engaging in unfair competition with the Company both during and after employment as follows:

(a)For purposes of this Section 16, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

(b)The Grantee acknowledges that, by working for the Company, he or she will: (i) have access to, learn about, and work with the Company’s valuable and unique Confidential Information, all of which the Company developed through substantial, time, effort, and expense; (ii) be in contact and develop relationships with Third Parties, the contacts and relationships with whom the Company developed through substantial time, effort, and expense; and (iii) receive valuable training, knowledge, and expertise, some or all of which the Grantee gained in whole or in part through substantial time, effort, and expense by the Company. For these reasons, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company has legitimate interests in restricting the Grantee’s competitive activities both during and after employment with the Company and that the restrictions contained in this Section 16 are necessary to protect those legitimate business interests, are designed to eliminate competition that would be unfair to the Company, are reasonable in time and scope, and do not confer a benefit upon the Company which is disproportionate to any detriment to the Grantee.

(c)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company, and for a period of one (1) year thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not Compete with the Company, or prepare to Compete with the Company, within the Protected Territory. This restriction applies regardless of whether the Grantee is physically present in the Protected Territory engaging in prohibited competition or whether the Grantee uses means of communication, such as the telephone or the Internet, to engage in prohibited competition within the Protected Territory while physically outside of the Protected Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Grantee from purchasing or owning less than five percent (5%) of the publicly traded securities of any competitor of the Company’s, provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that the Grantee is not a controlling person of, or a member of a group that controls, such competitor.

(d)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not, to any tangible or intangible detriment of the Company, directly or indirectly do any of the following:

(i)    solicit in any way, or attempt to solicit in any way, any business from a Third Party;

(ii)    accept any business from, or attempt to accept any business from, a Third Party; and/or

(iii)    induce in any way, or attempt to induce in any way, a Third Party to terminate or diminish in any way its existing or prospective business relationship with the Company.

(e)The Grantee agrees that during employment with the Company and for a period of two (2) years thereafter regardless of the reasons for termination, the Grantee will not directly or indirectly do any of the following:

(i)    solicit in any way, or attempt to solicit in any way, any current or prospective employee of the Company to decline any prospective employment with the Company or to terminate his or her current employment with the Company; and/or

(ii)    induce in any way, or attempt to induce in any way, any current or prospective employee of the Company to decline any prospective employment with the Company or to terminate his or her current employment with the Company.

17.Miscellaneous and Remedies. In consideration of the Awarded Units, the Grantee agrees to be bound by the following:

(a)For purposes of this Section 17, the “Company” shall mean Lancaster Colony Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

(b)The Grantee represents that the Grantee currently has no restrictions on competition imposed by any agreement with any prior employer, including without limitation any non-competition restriction or non-solicitation restriction, that would prevent the Grantee from working for the Company and performing all lawful duties that the Company may require of the Grantee. By signing this Agreement, the Grantee certifies that the Grantee has made every good faith effort to determine whether any such restrictions exist. The Grantee agrees that the Grantee is prohibited from using or disclosing any confidential business information or trade secrets of a prior employer. This prohibits without limitation any disclosure of such information or trade secrets to any employee of the Company or any use of such information or trade secrets as part of the Grantee’s job duties with the Company. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company will never directly or indirectly request Employee to improperly use or disclose any prior employer’s confidential information or trade secrets. If any Company employee does make such a request, the Grantee shall immediately report the request to the Company’s Human Resources Department.

(c)The Grantee agrees to notify any of the Grantee’s actual or prospective employers of the existence and terms of this Agreement and agrees that the Company may notify such employers of the terms of this Agreement as well.

(d)The Grantee agrees that any breach, threatened breach, or attempted breach by the Grantee of Sections 14, 15, and/or 16 of this Agreement will cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Company that cannot be adequately remedied by money damages and will entitle the Company to immediate injunctive relief and/or specific performance in any court of competent jurisdiction, as well as to all other legal or equitable remedies and Uniform Trade Secrets Act remedies, where applicable, to which the Company may be entitled.

(e)If a jury or court of competent jurisdiction finds that the Grantee has breached Section 15 of this Agreement, and this finding becomes final after any appeals are exhausted, then the Grantee is liable to the Company, for each breach, in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Grantee’s last total annual compensation provided by the Company. The Grantee agrees that if the Grantee breaches Section 15 of this Agreement then Company will suffer actual damages in an amount that would be difficult if not impossible to determine and that the liquidated damages imposed for a breach of Section 15 of this Agreement represent the damages fairly estimated by the parties to result from any breach and do not constitute a penalty. Furthermore, the Grantee agrees that the imposition of these liquidated damages does not demonstrate or imply that the Company would not suffer irreparable harm from any breach of this Agreement and does not render improper the award of injunctive relief.

(f)The Grantee agrees that if the Grantee breaches, threatens to breach, or attempts to breach any of the provisions of Section 16(c) following termination of employment with the Company, then the post-employment restricted period for Section 16(c) shall be extended to encompass the period of one (1) year from the date the Company obtains a court order providing preliminary or permanent injunctive relief enjoining the Grantee from any or all acts and/or omissions contrary to Section 16(c). Similarly, if the Grantee breaches, threatens to breach, or attempts to breach any of the provisions of Sections 16(d) and/or 16(e) following termination of employment with the Company, then the restricted period for Sections 16(d) and/or 16(e) shall be extended to encompass the period of two (2) years from the date the Company obtains a court order providing preliminary or permanent injunctive relief enjoining the Grantee from any acts and/or omissions contrary to Sections 16(d) and/or 16(e).

(g)If the Company is, in its sole judgment, compelled to assert a cause of action against the Grantee to enforce or remedy any breach, threatened breach, or attempted breach of Sections 14, 15, and/or 16 of this Agreement, then the Grantee agrees to reimburse the Company for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other reasonable expenses incurred in the investigation and successful prosecution or settlement of any such cause of action in addition to any damages or other remedies obtained by the Company.

(h)If any part of the restrictions contained in Section 16 of this Agreement are found unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the parties agree that they intend for the court to enforce the restrictions to the extent reasonable or enforceable and to not decline enforcement. The parties agree that, in any litigation over Section 16 of this Agreement, they will jointly advocate this position to the court and/or any jury.

18.Information. Information about the Grantee and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan may be collected, recorded and held, used and disclosed for any purpose related to the administration of the Plan. The Grantee understands that such processing of this information may need to be carried out by the Company and its Subsidiaries and by third party administrators whether such persons are located within the Grantee’s country or elsewhere, including the United States of America. The Grantee consents to the processing of information relating to the Grantee and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan in any one or more of the ways referred to above.

The Grantee specifically understands and agrees that the Awarded Units are being granted under the Plan, copies of which Plan the Grantee acknowledges the Grantee has read, understands and by which the Grantee agrees to be bound.

21.Amendments. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of the Grantee with respect to the Awarded Units without the Grantee’s consent.

22.Severability. It is the intention and agreement of the Company and the Grantee that this Agreement shall be construed in such a manner as to impose only those restrictions on the conduct of the Grantee that are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they then exist and as are necessary to assure the Company of the intended benefit of this Agreement. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

e.     No Duty to Mitigate Benefits. The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any benefits to be paid by Company pursuant to this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefits provided for in this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer after termination of employment with Company.

a.If the Company’s Consulting Firm (defined below) determines that (i) the termination benefits payable to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement would subject the Executive to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, and (ii) the net amount that the Executive would realize from such benefits on an after-tax basis (after taking into account all federal, state and local income and other taxes payable by the Executive and the amount of any excise tax payable by the Executive under Section 4999 of the Code) would be greater if the benefits payable hereunder were limited, then the termination benefits payable hereunder shall be reduced in the manner determined by the Consulting Firm to the extent and only to the extent that such reduction would result in a greater after-tax benefit for the Executive than if the termination benefits were not reduced. For this purpose, the Executive shall be deemed to be in the highest marginal rate of federal, state, and local taxes. Any reduction in the amount of termination benefits payable hereunder shall be debited first from the amounts payable under Section 2(a)(ii) and then under any equity awards that vested or became payable under the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (or any successor thereto), with any amounts that are payable later in time under such awards reduced before payments to be made sooner in time; provided, however, that in no event shall such reduction be effected through a delay in the timing of any payment that is subject to Code Section 409A (or that would become subject to Code Section 409A as a result of such delay).

b.All determinations required to be made under this Section 3, including any reductions to Termination Payments required by Section 3(a), and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by such certified public accounting firm in the business of performing such calculations as may be designated by the Company prior to the date of the Change in Control and reasonably acceptable to the Executive (the “Consulting Firm”), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive. All fees and expenses of the Consulting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. For purposes of all present value determinations required to be made under this Section 3, the Company and the Executive elect to use the applicable federal rate that is in effect on the Effective Date pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1-280G, Q&A-32.

a.    The Executive’s employment by the Company creates a relationship of confidence and trust between the Executive and the Company. The Company has a proprietary interest in documents and information applicable to its business or to the business of its Third Party Confidants which may be made known to the Executive during the period of the Executive’s employment. The Executive understands and acknowledges that the Company has invested, and continues to invest, substantial time, money and specialized knowledge into developing its resources, creating a customer base, generating customer and potential customer lists, training its employees, and improving its offerings in the marketplace. The Executive understands and acknowledges that, as a result of these efforts, the Company has created and uses, and continues to create and use, Confidential Information as well as possess Confidential Information of Third Party Confidants pursuant to strict contractual obligations to maintain that confidentiality. The Company’s Confidential Information provides the Company with a competitive advantage over other competitors the marketplace. The Executive acknowledges that the Company has taken appropriate measures to protect its Confidential Information, which constitutes valuable, special, and unique property of the Company that is not otherwise available to the general public. The Executive acknowledges that all Confidential Information, whether developed by the Executive or otherwise coming into his or her possession, shall remain the exclusive property of the Company or its Third Party Confidants.

b.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, unless the Executive shall first secure the Company’s written consent, and except for authorized use in performance of the Executive’s duties on behalf of and for the benefit of the Company, the Executive shall not disclose to any others, or use, at any time, in any way, or anywhere, either during or subsequent to employment with the Company, any trade secret or other Confidential Information (of either technical or non-technical nature) of the Company or a Third Party Confidant. The Executive shall promptly notify the Company of any Confidential Information improperly disclosed. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Executive will not be criminally or civilly liable under a federal or state trade secret law for disclosure of a trade secret (1) in confidence to a government official directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected law violation, or (2) in a complaint or document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding if filed under seal.

c. The Executive understands and acknowledges that his or her obligations under this Agreement with regard to any particular Confidential Information shall commence immediately upon the Executive first having access to such Confidential Information (whether before or after he/she begins employment by the Company) and shall continue during and after his or her employment by the Company until such time as such Confidential Information has become public knowledge other than as a result of the Executive’s breach of this Agreement or breach by those acting in concert with the Executive or on the Executive’s behalf.

d.    The Executive hereby expressly agrees that the covenants in this Section 4 shall be binding upon the Executive’s heirs, successors and legal representatives.

Upon (i) voluntary or involuntary termination of the Executive’s employment or (ii) the Company’s request at any time during the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall (A) provide or return to the Company any and all Company property, including keys, key cards, access cards, identification cards, security devices, Company credit cards, network access devices, computers, cell phones, smartphones, PDAs, pagers, fax machines, equipment, speakers, webcams, manuals, reports, files, books, compilations, work product, e-mail messages, recordings, tapes, disks, thumb drives or other removable information storage devices, hard drives, negatives and data and all Company documents and materials belonging to the Company and stored in any fashion, including but not limited to those that constitute or contain any Confidential Information or Work Product, that are in the possession or control of the Executive, whether they were provided to the Executive by the Company or any of its business associates or created by the Executive in connection with his or her employment by the Company, and (B) delete or destroy all copies of any such documents and materials not returned to the Company that remain in the Executive’s possession or control, including those stored on any non-Company devices, networks, storage locations and media in the Executive’s possession or control.

a.General. The Executive, during and following termination of employment with the Company (for any reason), shall not directly or indirectly, individually, in partnership or through a corporation, limited liability company or other entity, as employee, agent, proprietor, manager, executive, shareholder, or consultant, compete with the Company or assist others to so compete; nor will the Executive, without the written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly solicit, entice, persuade, or induce any person or entity which has a business relationship with the Company to direct or transfer away any business, patronage, or source of supply from the Company. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, this noncompetition covenant shall be limited to: (i) a period of 12 months following the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company (for any reason) (the “Restrictive Period”); and (ii) competition by Executive on behalf of direct competitors of the Company. This Section 5 does not, in any way, restrict or impede the Executive from exercising protected rights to the extent that such rights cannot be waived by agreement or from complying with any applicable law or regulation or a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that such compliance does not exceed that required by law, regulation or order. Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any such order to the Company.

b.Non-Solicitation of Customers. The Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment and during the Restrictive Period, the Executive will not, by influencing or attempting to influence previously existing customers, or otherwise, either directly or indirectly, divert or attempt to divert from the Company, any business the Company had enjoyed or solicited anywhere during the past 12 months, or in connection with which the Executive worked during the last 12 months of the Executive’s employment.

c.Non-Solicit and Non-Hire of Employees. The Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment and during the Restrictive Period, the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, approach or solicit any employee of the Company or any individual employed by the Company in the prior six months, with a view to hiring such employee for any other entity or persuading such employee to leave the employment of the Company, or directly or indirectly, hire such employee, unless the Company specifically consents in writing.

The Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment, Executive will not (i) undertake any planning for or organization of any business activity competitive with the Company’s business, or (ii) combine or conspire with other employees of the Company for the purpose of organizing any such competitive business activity.

e.Enforcement. The Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in Sections 4 and 5, in view of the nature of the business in which the Company is engaged, are reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company and that any violation of Sections 4 or 5 would result in irreparable injury to the Company for which money damages alone would not provide an adequate remedy, and the Executive’s observance of these restrictions will not cause the Executive any undue hardship nor unreasonably interfere with Executive’s ability to earn a livelihood. In the event of a breach or a threatened breach by the Executive of Section 4 or 5, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining the Executive from the commission of such breach, and to recover its attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses related to the breach or threatened breach. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of money damages. The covenants and disclosures in Sections 4 and 5 will be construed as independent of any other provisions in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action by the Executive against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, will not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of such covenants and agreements. In addition, while the duration of the Executive’s restrictions will be determined generally in accordance with their respective provisions, if the Executive violates any of the restrictions, the Executive agrees to an extension of such restrictions on the same terms and conditions for an additional period of time equal to the time that elapses from the commencement of such violation to the later of (a) the termination of such violation or (b) the final resolution of any litigation (including any appeal) stemming from such violation.

a.    Nondisparagement. The Executive and the Company agree that, whether or not the Executive remains employed by the Company, neither the Executive nor the Company will make or authorize any public statement, whether orally or in writing, that disparages the other party hereto with respect to such other party’s business interests or practices; provided, that neither party shall be restricted in connection with statements made in context of any litigation, arbitration or similar proceeding involving the other party hereto.

b.    Extent of Restrictions. The Executive acknowledges that he or she has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed by this Section 6 and he or she fully agrees that the restrictions contained in this Section 6 correctly set forth the understanding of the parties at the time this Agreement is entered into, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company, and that any violation will cause substantial injury to the Company. In the event of any such violation, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedy, to preliminary or permanent injunctive relief. If any court or arbitrator having jurisdiction shall find that any part of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are unreasonable in any respect, it is the intent of the parties that the restrictions set forth herein shall not be terminated, but that this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect to the extent (as to time periods and other relevant factors) that the court and/or arbitrator shall find reasonable.

c.    Effect on Prior Covenants. The provisions of this Section 6 are not intended to override, supersede, reduce, modify or affect in any manner any other agreement between the Executive, the Company or any of its Affiliates, including any confidentiality, nondisclosure, noncompetition, or nondisparagement agreement between the Executive, the Company or any of its Affiliates. Any such covenant or agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. The Company will be entitled to injunctive and other relief to prevent or enjoin any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

d.    Protected Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Executive understands that nothing contained in this Agreement limits Executive’s ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”). Executive further understands that this Agreement does not limit Executive’s ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. This Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Government Agencies.

14. Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and shall be interpreted and construed consistently with such intent. The payments to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement are also intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent possible, under either the separation pay exemption pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) or as short-term deferrals pursuant to Treasury regulation §1.409A-1(b)(4), and for this purpose each payment shall constitute a “separately identified” amount within the meaning of Treasury Regulation §1.409A-2(b)(2). If the terms or operation of this Agreement would subject the Executive to taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code (“409A Penalties”), the Company and the Executive shall cooperate diligently to amend the terms of this Agreement to avoid such 409A Penalties, to the extent possible; provided that in no event shall the Company be responsible for any 409A Penalties that arise in connection with any amounts payable under this Agreement. To the extent any amounts under this Agreement are payable by reference to the Executive’s “termination of employment,” such term shall be deemed to refer to the Executive’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if the Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of the Executive’s separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable to the Executive (i) constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) is payable upon the Executive’s separation from service and (iii) under the terms of this Agreement would be payable prior to the six-month anniversary of the Executive’s separation from service, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (a) the first business day following the six-month anniversary of the Executive's separation from service and (b) the date of the Executive’s death. Any reimbursement or advancement payable to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise shall be conditioned on the submission by the Executive of all expense reports reasonably required by the Company under any applicable expense reimbursement policy, and shall be paid to the Executive within 30 days following receipt of such expense reports, but in no event later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive incurred the reimbursable expense. Any amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit provided, during a calendar year shall not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefit to be provided, during any other calendar year. The right to any reimbursement or in-kind benefit pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

16.    Governing Law and Jurisdiction. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, except to the extent preempted by ERISA or other federal laws, as applicable, without reference to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. In the event of a dispute between the Parties relating to the enforcement of this Agreement, the Parties agree that the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, shall have jurisdiction over the Parties and the litigation and that venue shall lie solely therein.

17.    Recoupment. Any and all benefits payable hereunder shall be subject to Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any other law of similar effect for recovery of incentive-based compensation previously paid, the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and any clawback, forfeiture, or recoupment policies adopted by the Company thereunder, whether or not such policies are approved before or after the Effective Date.

18.    Disputes. If the Executive claims entitlement to Termination Pay pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) and a dispute arises regarding a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company or the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, and the Executive obtains a final judgment in the Executive’s favor by a court of competent jurisdiction or the Executive’s claim is settled by the Company prior to the rendering of a judgment by such a court, all reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in contesting or disputing any such termination or seeking to obtain or enforce any right, compensation, or benefit provided for in this Agreement, or in otherwise pursuing the Executive’s claim, shall be paid by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law.

19.    Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto.

20.    Other Agreements. This Agreement does not supersede or affect in any way, nor is it affected in any way by, any other existing agreement, written or oral, between the Company and the Executive. Further, no future agreement between the Company and the Executive shall supersede or affect this Agreement, nor shall this Agreement affect such future agreement, unless such future agreement specifically so provides by reference to this Agreement as being superseded and is executed by both the Company and the Executive.
