AMENDED AND RESTATED
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”) dated effective as of the 31st day of December, 2008, between RPM International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Frank C. Sullivan (“Executive”).

     WHEREAS, Executive is currently Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and

     WHEREAS, Executive and the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2006 (the “Existing Agreement”), to ensure Executive’s continued employment with the Company; and

     WHEREAS, the Company recognizes that, as with many publicly held corporations, the possibility of a change in control may exist from time to time, and that the uncertainty and questions it may raise among management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its stockholders. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has evaluated the steps taken by the Company to ensure the continued dedication of the Executive in the event of the disruption and uncertainty caused by the possibility of a change in control;

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of the stockholders of the Company to take further action to secure the continued dedication of the Executive in the event of any threat or occurrence of a change in control of the Company; and

     WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend and restate the Existing Agreement to ensure that the compensation and benefits provided the Executive in the event of a threat or occurrence of a change in control will satisfy the Executive’s expectations and be competitive with those of other corporations.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the respective covenants and agreements of the parties herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1.  Term of Employment . The Company hereby agrees to continue to employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to continue to serve the Company, on the terms and conditions set forth herein for the period commencing as of the date hereof and expiring on May 31, 2009 (the “Employment Period”). The Employment Period shall automatically be extended on May 31 of each year for a period of one year from such date unless, not later than March 31 of such year, the Company or Executive has given notice to the other party that it or he, as the case may be, does not wish to have the Employment Period extended. In addition, in the event of a Change in Control, the Employment Period shall automatically be extended for a period of three years beginning on the date of the Change in Control and ending on the third anniversary of the date of such Change in Control (unless further extended under the immediately preceding sentence). In any case, the Employment Period may be Terminated earlier under the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 


 

     2.  Position and Duties . Executive shall serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer reporting to the Board of Directors of the Company. Executive shall be responsible for the general management and operation of the Company and shall have such other powers and duties as may from time to time be assigned by the Board of Directors of the Company; provided, however, that such duties are consistent with his present duties and his position with the Company. Executive shall devote substantially all his working time and efforts to the continued success of the business and affairs of the Company.

     3.  Place of Employment . In connection with his employment by the Company, Executive shall not be required to relocate or move from his existing principal residence in Bay Village, Ohio, and shall not be required to perform services which would make the continuance of his principal residence in Bay Village, Ohio, unreasonably difficult or inconvenient for him. The Company shall give Executive at least six months’ advance notice of any proposed relocation of its Medina, Ohio offices to a location more than 50 miles from Medina, Ohio and, if Executive in his sole discretion chooses to relocate his principal residence, the Company shall promptly pay (or reimburse him for) all reasonable relocation expenses (consistent with the Company’s past practice for similarly situated senior executive officers) incurred by him relating to a change of his principal residence in connection with any such relocation of the Company’s offices from Medina, Ohio.

     4.  Compensation .

     (a)  Base Salary . During the Employment Period, Executive shall receive a base salary at the rate of not less than Eight Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($825,000) per annum (“Base Salary”), payable in substantially equal monthly installments at the end of each month during the Employment Period hereunder. It is contemplated that annually in the first quarter of each fiscal year of the Company the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) will review Executive’s Base Salary and other compensation during the Employment Period and, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, it may recommend to the Board of Directors of the Company for its approval an increase in Executive’s Base Salary and other compensation, effective as of June 1 of such fiscal year, based upon Executive’s performance, then generally prevailing industry salary scales, the Company’s results of operations, and other relevant factors. Any increase in Base Salary or other compensation shall in no way limit or reduce any other obligation of the Company hereunder and, once established at an increased specified rate, Executive’s Base Salary hereunder shall not be reduced without his written consent.

     (b)  Incentive Compensation . In addition to his Base Salary, Executive shall be entitled to receive such annual cash incentive compensation (“Incentive Compensation”) for each fiscal year of the Company during the Employment Period as the Compensation Committee may determine in its sole discretion to recommend to the Board of Directors of the Company for its approval based upon the Company’s results of operation and other relevant factors. Such annual Incentive Compensation shall be received by Executive as soon as possible, but no later than 90 days after the close of the Company’s fiscal year for which such Incentive Compensation is granted, provided however, that to the extent the Company’s senior executive for Human Resources determines it to be consistent with Section 409A of the Code, Executive shall have such right, if any, as may be provided under the Deferred Compensation Plan to elect to defer annual Incentive

2


 

Compensation. Any such election shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan (including provisions regarding the time and form of such deferral election) and such procedures as may be established thereunder.

     (c)  Expenses . During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to receive prompt reimbursement for all reasonable business expenses incurred by him (in accordance with Company practice) in performing services hereunder, provided that Executive properly accounts therefor in accordance with either Company policies or guidelines established by the Internal Revenue Service if such are less burdensome.

     (d)  Participation in Benefit Plans . During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to continue to participate in or receive benefits under the Benefit Plans, subject to and on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration of the Benefit Plans. Except with respect to any benefits related to salary reductions authorized by Executive, nothing paid or awarded to Executive under any Benefit Plan presently in effect or made available in the future shall reduce or be deemed to be in lieu of compensation to Executive pursuant to any other provision of this Section 4. Executive’s right to participate in any Benefit Plan shall be subject to the applicable eligibility criteria for participation and Executive shall not be entitled to any benefits under, or based on, any Benefit Plan for any purposes of this Agreement if Executive does not during the Employment Period satisfy the eligibility criteria for participation in such plan.

     (e)  Vacations . During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to the same number of paid vacation days in each fiscal year determined by the Company from time to time for its other senior executive officers, but not less than four weeks in any fiscal year, to be taken at such time or times as is desired by Executive after consultation with the Board of Directors (or its designee) to avoid scheduling conflicts (prorated in any fiscal year during which Executive is employed hereunder for less than the entire such year in accordance with the number of days in such fiscal year during which he is so employed). Executive also shall be entitled to all paid holidays given by the Company to its other salaried employees.

     (f)  Other Benefits . During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to continue to receive the fringe benefits appertaining to his position with the Company in accordance with present practice, including the use of the most recent model of a full-sized automobile. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to the full-time use of an office and furniture at the Company’s offices in Medina, Ohio, and shall be entitled to the full-time use of a secretary paid by the Company.

At any time other than during the Protected Period, the Employment Period shall Terminate immediately upon the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) expiration of the Employment Period; (ii) the death of Executive; (iii) the expiration of 30 days after the Company gives Executive written notice of its election to Terminate the Employment Period upon the Disability of Executive, if before the expiration of such 30-day period Executive has not returned to the performance of his duties hereunder on a full-

time basis; (iv) the resignation of Executive; (v) the Company’s Termination of the Employment Period for Cause; or (vi) the Company’s Termination of the Employment Period at any time, without Cause, for any reason or no reason. For purposes of Subsections 5(b) and 5(c), expiration of the Employment Period upon a notice of the Company under Section 1 that it does not wish to have the Employment Period extended shall be deemed a Termination of Employment without Cause pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(vi) and expiration of the Employment Period upon a notice of Executive under Section 1 that he does not wish to have the Employment Period extended shall be deemed a resignation of Executive pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(iv).

     (b)  Compensation Upon Termination . This Subsection 5(b) sets forth the payments and benefits to which Executive is entitled under any Termination of Employment pursuant to Subsection 5(a).

          (i) Death; Disability . During any period in which Executive fails to perform his duties hereunder as a result of Disability, Executive shall continue to receive his full Base Salary until his employment is Terminated pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(ii) or (iii); provided that his employment shall not be continued beyond the 29th month after such period of Disability began. Upon Termination of the Employment Period under Subsection 5(a)(ii) or (iii), Executive shall no longer be entitled to participate in the Benefit Plans, except as required by applicable law or as governed by the Benefit Plans including the Group Long Term Disability Insurance in which Executive participates immediately prior to such Termination of Employment, but Executive shall be entitled to receive his Earned Incentive Compensation, if any, within 30 days after the Termination Date.

          (ii) Resignation or Cause . If Executive’s employment is Terminated pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(iv) or (v), the Company shall pay Executive his full Base Salary through the Termination Date at the rate in effect at such time. The Company shall then have no further obligations to Executive under this Agreement and Executive shall no longer be entitled to participate in the Benefit Plans, except as required by applicable law.

          (iii) Termination of Employment Without Cause . If Executive’s employment is Terminated without Cause pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(vi), then in lieu of any further salary payments to Executive for periods subsequent to the Termination Date, the Company shall pay to Executive no later than 30 calendar days following such date, a lump sum amount equal to (A) Executive’s Unpaid Incentive Compensation, if any, plus (B) 300% of the sum of (I) the greater of Executive’s Base Salary currently in effect or the highest of Executive’s Base Salary in effect at any time during the period commencing three years prior to the Termination Date; and (II) the highest amount of Annual Incentive Compensation Executive received from the Company during the full five fiscal years of the Company immediately preceding the Termination Date. Executive also shall be entitled to certain continuing benefits under the terms of Subsection 5(c). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsection 5(b)(iii), Subsection 5(c) or this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to make the lump-sum payment referred to in this Subsection 5(b)(iii) or provide any continuing benefits or payment referred to in Subsection 5(c) unless (X) Executive executes and delivers to the Company a Release and Waiver of Claims and (Y) Executive refrains from revoking, rescinding or otherwise repudiating such Release and Waiver of Claims for all applicable periods during which Executive may revoke it.

     (c)  Additional Benefits Following Termination under Subsection 5(a)(vi) . This Subsection 5(c) sets forth the benefits to which Executive shall be entitled, in addition to those set forth in Subsection 5(b)(iii), following a Termination of the Employment Period under Subsection 5(a)(vi). Executive shall not be entitled to the benefit of any provision of this Subsection 5(c) following a Termination of the Employment Period under any other provision hereof.

          (i) Continuing Benefit Plans . For a period of three years following such a Termination Date, Executive shall also be entitled to continue to participate, on the same terms and conditions as active employees, in the Continuing Benefit Plans in which Executive participated immediately prior to the Termination Date, except that (A) Executive shall be entitled to Estate/Financial Planning Benefits for a period of six months following the Termination Date and (B) if Executive’s continued participation is not possible and Executive does not continue to participate under the terms of any such Continuing Benefit Plan, the Company shall instead pay to Executive, promptly upon presentation to the Company of invoices or receipts for payment, the amount Executive spends to receive comparable coverage under such a comparable plan during such three-year period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any such additional amount or comparable benefit be provided to Executive prior to or materially after the time the original payment or benefit would have been provided, or in a tax year other than the year in which payment would otherwise be made. Payment under Subsection 5(c)(i)(B) shall be made within 30 days of the time Executive presents an invoice or receipt for payment for such comparable coverage, provided Executive presents such invoice(s) or receipt(s) no later than 30 days before the end of the taxable year following the year in which the expenses were incurred. With respect to any coverage under a Continuing Benefit Plan with respect to which, but for this Agreement, Executive would otherwise be entitled to continuation coverage under Code Section 4980B (“COBRA”), any benefits provided for expenses that are incurred after the end of what would be the COBRA continuation coverage period if Executive had elected and paid for such coverage shall be made no later than the end of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company’s obligations to Executive with respect to continued benefits under the Continuing Benefit Plans shall end at the time Executive becomes covered by another employer providing comparable benefits. During such continuation period, Executive shall be responsible for paying the normal employee share of the applicable premiums for coverage under the Continuing Benefit Plans. The Company shall have the right to modify, amend or terminate the Continuing Benefit Plans (other than the Estate/Financial Planning Benefits) following the Termination Date and Executive’s continued participation therein shall be subject to such modification, amendment or termination if such modification, amendment or termination applies generally to the then-current participants in such plan. Upon completion of the three-year period following such a Termination Date, the Company shall afford Executive the opportunity to continue Executive’s coverage under the Continuing Benefit Plans (other than the Estate/Financial Planning Benefits), at Executive’s expense, for an additional period under COBRA Continuation Coverage, so long as Executive timely elects to receive COBRA Continuation Coverage under the terms thereof and otherwise complies with the conditions of continuation of benefits under COBRA Continuation Coverage.

               (B) A lump-sum payment equal to the cash value of the benefits Executive would have received had he continued to participate in and receive annual awards under the Restricted Stock Plan on a basis consistent with his past practice for a period of three years after the Termination Date, with such payment to be paid no later than 2 1 / 2 months following the later of the end of Executive’s taxable year or the end of the Company’s taxable year in which the Termination Date occurs; and

               (C) The lapse of all restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions to which Executive’s awards under the Restricted Stock Plan are subject, so that any restricted shares previously awarded to Executive under such plan shall be nonforfeitable and freely transferable thereafter, all on the terms of the Restricted Stock Plan or the agreements thereunder.

     (d)  Notice of Termination . Any Termination of Employment by the Company pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(iii), (v) or (vi) or by Executive pursuant to Subsection 5(a)(iv) shall be communicated to the other party hereto by written notice of Termination of Employment, which shall state in reasonable detail the facts upon which the Termination of Employment has occurred.

     (e)  Set-Off . There shall be no right of set-off or counterclaim against, or delay in, any payment by the Company to Executive of any lump sum payment made under Subsection 5(b)(iii) or 5(c)(ii)(B) or any Gross-Up Payment in respect of any claim against or debt or obligation of Executive, whether arising hereunder or otherwise.

          (i) Continuing Benefit Plans . For a period of three years following such a Termination Date, Executive shall also be entitled to continue to participate, on the same terms and conditions as active employees, in the Continuing Benefit Plans in which Executive participated immediately prior to the Termination Date, except that (A) Executive shall be entitled to Estate/Financial Planning Benefits for a period of one year following the Termination Date and (B) if Executive’s continued participation is not possible and Executive does not continue to participate under the terms of any such Continuing Benefit Plan, the Company shall instead pay to Executive, promptly upon presentation to the Company of invoices or receipts for payment, the amount Executive spends to receive comparable coverage under such a comparable plan during such three-year period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any such additional amount or comparable benefit be provided to Executive prior to or materially after the time the original payment or benefit would have been provided, or in a tax year other than the year in which payment would otherwise be made.

During such continuation period, Executive shall be responsible for paying the normal employee share of the applicable premiums for coverage under the Continuing Benefit Plans. The Company shall have the right to modify, amend or terminate the Continuing Benefit Plans (other than the Estate/Financial Planning Benefits) following the Termination Date and Executive’s continued participation therein shall be subject to such modification, amendment or termination if such modification, amendment or termination applies generally to the then-current participants in such plan. Upon completion of the three-year period following such a Termination Date, the Company shall afford Executive the opportunity to continue Executive’s coverage under the Continuing Benefit Plans (other than the Estate/Financial Planning Benefits), at Executive’s expense, for an additional period under

               (A) A lump sum payment equal to three times the annual premium most recently paid with respect to Executive for such executive life insurance program as may be maintained by the Company at the Termination Date, except that if such premium is less than the next scheduled premium as shown on the then current illustration of coverage, the lump sum payment shall be three times such next scheduled premium. Such lump sum payment shall be grossed up to compensate for the tax impact of such payment and shall occur no later than 2 1 / 2 months following the later of the end of the Executive’s taxable year or the end of the Company’s taxable year in which the Termination Date occurs, provided that in the case of Termination of Employment with Good Reason, in no event shall payment occur prior to the first day of the seventh month following the Termination Date;

               (B) A lump-sum payment to be paid under the Restricted Stock Plan equal to the cash value of the benefits Executive would have received had he continued to participate in and receive annual awards under the Restricted Stock Plan on a basis consistent with his past practice for a period of three years after the Termination Date, determined and payable in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Stock Plan and the Company’s past practice. In the case of Termination of Employment without Cause, payment shall be made no later than 30 calendar days following the Termination Date, and in the case of Termination of Employment for Good Reason, payment shall be made on the first day of the seventh month following the Termination Date; and

               (C) The lapse of all restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions to which Executive’s awards under the Restricted Stock Plan are subject, so that any restricted shares previously awarded to Executive under such plan shall be nonforfeitable and freely transferable thereafter, all on the terms of the Restricted Stock Plan or the agreements thereunder.
