What is a Director Employment Agreement?

A director employment agreement is a contract between a director and a company that outlines the rules and responsibilties surrounding a director's employment. The director employment agreement also includes key details regarding compensation, benefits, and any applicable conditions to the agreement. A few other important parts of the agreement include indemnification, exceptions, liabilities, and severability.

The director employment agreement intends to hold responsible both parties to the contract for their individual duties and obligations. If either party breeches the contract, the document serves as vital proof in litigation to ensure the wronged party is properly compensated.

Article 2
Termination, Notice and Severance
2.1   The Executive and the Company desire this Agreement to commence as soon as possible and agree that this Agreement shall commence with effect as of January 1, 2007 or an earlier date (the “Commencement Date”) should the Executive’s employment with his current employer be terminated before December 31, 2006; provided, however, that the Commencement Date may be extended beyond January 1, 2007 as long as necessary, but in no event later than April 1, 2007. In case of an earlier or later commencement, all dates provided for in this Agreement shall be adjusted accordingly. This Agreement may be terminated by either party without giving any reason therefor upon at least six months’ prior written notice to the other party; provided, however, that any termination under this section shall be effective no earlier than December 31, 2011. Notice by either party must be in writing, must be delivered to the Shareholder(s) or the Executive and shall be effective upon delivery. An extraordinary termination pursuant to Section 626 BGB is not affected by these rules.
 
2.2   At any time during the term of this Agreement, the Shareholder(s) are entitled to relieve the Executive from his obligation to work. In such a case, the Executive shall not engage in any activity during the term of this Agreement for which he is, will be, or would normally be entitled to remuneration without the prior written consent of the Shareholder(s), which consent may be withheld for any reason.

    rata bonus payments pursuant to Section 4.3). The amount of payment to which the Executive is entitled hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any compensation earned by the Executive in connection with services performed.
Article 3
Secrecy/Business Records
3.1   The Executive shall not disclose to any third party, or use for his personal gain, any confidential, technical or other business information entrusted to him, or which has otherwise become known to him and which relates to the Automotive Group, the Company or to any of its affiliates as defined in accordance with Section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act (“Affiliates”). In particular, the Executive shall not disclose any confidential or proprietary information concerning the organization of the business, relations with customers and suppliers or technical know-how, design or intellectual property, trade secrets, or any other marketing, commercial or technical information considered confidential or proprietary by the Automotive Group. This obligation shall not expire upon termination of Executive’s employment but shall remain in force.
 
3.2   The Executive shall use business records of any kind, including private notes, concerning the Automotive Group’s or the Company’s affairs and activities, only for business purposes. The Executive shall not make copies or extracts or duplicates of drawings, calculations, statistics, and the like, nor of any other business records, for purposes other than for the Automotive Group’s business.
 
3.3   Upon termination of his employment (or upon request of the Shareholder(s) upon or after the giving of notice of termination), the Executive shall return to the Company of his own accord all business records and copies thereof which are in his possession. The Executive shall have no right of retention as to any such records or copies. The Executive shall also at such time return to the Company all keys, goods and other equipment in his possession which are the property of the Company or any of its Affiliates or to which the Company or any of its Affiliates has the right of possession.
Article 4
Salary, Allowable Expenses and Other Benefits
4.1   Commencing January 1, 2007 the Executive shall receive an annual gross salary (the “Salary”) of €650,000 (in words: six hundred and fifty thousand Euros). The Salary will be reviewed annually in the third quarter of each calendar year and will not be decreased. The Salary shall be payable in twelve equal monthly installments to be paid at the end of each month, all after deduction of the amounts to be withheld in accordance with law. The Salary entitlement may not be assigned or pledged by the Executive. The Salary includes payment for any work performed by the Executive for the Automotive Group outside of normal working hours.
 
4.2   Travel expenses and other necessary and adequate expenses incurred by the Executive in the furtherance of the Automotive Group’s business shall be reimbursed against proof to the extent they are reasonable and in accordance with rules applicable in Germany for tax purposes and with the then effective policy of the Company. The Executive is entitled to international first class travel.
 
4.3   In addition to his Salary, the Executive may be entitled to an annual bonus based on performance parameters as decided in consultation between the Company and the Executive

- 4 -


 
    each year and on a target of 70% of his Salary in accordance with HII’s Management Incentive Compensation (“MIC”) plan. The annual bonus can be up to 50% higher if the Automotive Group achieves superior results. The annual bonus shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the MIC plan and parameters for the Automotive Group attached as Exhibit 1 hereto. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, the annual bonus shall be guaranteed at the target level of 70%, prorated for the period of employment (i.e., a minimum of EUR 455,000 prorated for the period of employment). It is understood and agreed by the parties that any bonus payments by the Company shall be voluntary one-time remunerations and will not result in any future obligations by the Company or any of its Affiliates.
4.4   Within thirty (30) days of the Commencement Date, the Executive will receive a one-time grant under HII’s Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”) of options to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of its common stock. Subsequent grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of HII’s board of directors, and all grants will be solely governed by the terms of the option 2002 Plan or such other plan or program under which they are granted.
 
4.5   Within thirty (30) days after the third anniversary of the Commencement Date, and provided that the Executive is then employed by the Company, the Executive will be granted 25,000 shares of HII common stock under the 2002 Plan, which shares shall be non-forfeitable and non-restricted on the date of grant. The Company believes Mr. Schinagel will have no adverse tax consequence during the three year period prior to the grant. However, if any taxes are owed, the parties will find a mutually-acceptable solution.
 
4.6   The Executive shall be entitled to a retirement benefit that is immediate and non-forfeitable, to be calculated and paid as follows:
The annual gross pension payment (“Annual Pension”) shall correspond to 12.5% of the Eligible Salary and shall be increased by a further 2.5% of the Eligible Salary for each year of service under this Agreement completed after the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date; provided, that the Executive shall not be entitled to any Annual Pension if this Agreement has been terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 626 BGB on or before the fifth anniversary of the Commence Date; and provided further, that (i) any entitlements of the Executive to company pensions from previous employers (“Other Pensions”) shall be deducted from the Annual Pension in accordance with Section 5.1 BetrAVG, and (ii) the Annual Pension shall not exceed 30% of the Eligible Salary minus the Executive’s entitlement to Other Pensions. The Annual Pension shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly installments commencing the month following the month during which the last one of the following conditions has been satisfied:
  (i)   the Executive has reached the age of sixty (60), and
 
  (ii)   the Executive is not employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates.
The right to payment of an Annual Pension hereunder shall cease upon the Executive’s death; provided, however, that, in case the Executive dies after both of the above mentioned conditions have been satisfied, the Executive’s spouse shall be entitled to continued payment of the Annual Pension hereunder for a period of ten years less the period during which Annual Pension payments have been made hereunder prior to the Executive’s death.

- 5 -


 
In case of the Executive’s death during his employment with the Company, the Executive’s spouse shall not be entitled to an Annual Pension, but shall instead be entitled to a death benefit in the form of a one-time payment in an amount of €5,000,000 provided that death will not have occurred by accident.
The Company shall conclude an accident insurance on behalf of the Executive to an amount of €5,000,000 to be due in case of death or disability of the Executive.
For purposes of this Section 4.6 “Eligible Salary” shall mean the average Salary as earned during the term of this Agreement. Eligible Salary shall not include any other kind of payments, benefits, bonus or other compensation made or granted to the Executive.
4.7   The Company shall provide to the Executive a company car equivalent to or equal to a BMW 7 Series. The Company shall bear those car expenses (e.g., insurance, car tax, repairs) that are associated with the business use of the company car. The Executive may use the company car for private purposes. The taxes imposed with respect to the private usage shall be borne by the Executive.
Article 5
Vacation
The Executive shall be entitled to an annual vacation of thirty (30) working days excluding Saturdays. The time of vacation shall be determined in consultation with the Shareholder(s) and the other managing directors of Company, taking into consideration the personal preferences of the Executive and the interests of the Automotive Group. In the year of termination of this Agreement, the entitlement to vacation shall be calculated on a pro rata basis.
Article 6
Sickness
In case the Executive is temporarily unable to perform his duties as Executive due to sickness or absence not caused by the Executive’s negligence, Company shall continue to pay the Executive the Salary for a period of six months and, after such period, for a period of six months, the difference between the statutory sickness allowance and the Executive’s latest net income from Salary, but the Executive shall assign to Company any claims the Executive may have against third parties relating to such sickness or absence.
Article 7
Inventions
7.1   Any invention, design, concept, mark, know-how or other intellectual property which arises out of the Executive’s activities for the Company or which is made with respect to the experience, work or business of the Automotive Group (work-related intellectual property or “WIP”) becomes the property of the Company without compensation.
 
7.2   Inventions, designs, concepts, marks, know-how or other intellectual property which do not represent WIP (free intellectual property or “FIP”) must be reported to the Shareholder(s) in writing immediately. The Shareholder(s), on behalf of the Company, may take an interest in FIP with or without limitations. The Shareholder(s) must report their intention to the Executive within four (4) months of the report of the FIP by the Executive to the Shareholder(s).

- 6 -


 
7.3   In case of restricted acquisition of FIP, the Company shall receive a joint use right based on terms provided by the Company; in the case of total acquisition, all rights in the FIP go to the Companies. The Shareholder(s) and the Executive will agree on compensation according to the provisions of the Law Concerning Inventions Made by Employees and the regulations issued in connection with said law, which law shall apply in any case in case any portion of this Article 7 is unenforceable, but only to the extent of such unenforceability.

"Randy was great and even though I didn't prepare things 100%, we went with it and didn't change the bid price. He was patient and understanding brought up a lot of issues I didn't notice. Very good work! I would work with him again in a minute!"
