Kalb, a Vice President of SCSF Equities ("KALB"), was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company (the "BOARD") and the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board (the "NOMINATING COMMITTEE"). This letter sets forth our agreement relating to all director fees, compensation and other remuneration (whether cash or equity) heretofore and hereafter received by Kalb in his capacity as a member of the Board and the Nominating Committee. 1. Cash Compensation. All cash director's fees heretofore and hereafter received by Kalb from the Company solely in connection with his appointment to and service as a member of the Board and the Nominating Committee, excluding any cash reimbursement for actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Kalb in his capacity as a member of the Board and the Nominating Committee, upon receipt thereof by Kalb, promptly shall be remitted by Kalb directly to SCSF Equities, and Kalb hereby renounces and relinquishes in favor of SCSF Equities all rights and interests in and to all such cash director's fees as aforesaid. 2. Stock Options. All options and other subscription rights (if any) to purchase shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company ("COMMON STOCK") heretofore and hereafter granted to Kalb pursuant to the C&D Technologies, Inc. Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "1998 PLAN"), the C&D Technologies, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2007 PLAN") and any other director equity compensation plan hereafter adopted by the Board (or any committee thereof), whether or not subject to forfeiture or other restrictions or limitations or vesting or other requirements, are and shall be held by Kalb for the sole benefit of SCSF Equities and, upon the exercise (in whole or in part) of such options and other rights (if any) by Kalb and the concurrent or subsequent sale of the shares of Common Stock issued upon such exercise (in such amount, at such price and at such time as Kalb shall determine in his sole and absolute discretion, subject to the terms and any forfeiture or other restrictions or limitations or any vesting or other requirements of such options), all net after-tax cash proceeds received by Kalb therefrom (if any) promptly shall be remitted by Kalb directly to SCSF Equities, and Kalb hereby renounces and relinquishes in favor of SCSF Equities all rights and interests in and to all such cash proceeds. It is hereby understood and agreed that Kalb shall retain sole voting, investment and dispositive power (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), and for all other purposes), as applicable, in respect of such options and other rights (if any) and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such options and other rights (if any), and neither SCSF Equities nor any of its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) shall have (or share), directly or indirectly, any voting, investment or dispositive power in respect of such securities (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and for all other purposes). The foregoing shall apply, without limitation, with respect to all stock options heretofore and hereafter granted to Kalb pursuant to the 1998 Plan, the 2007 Plan and any other director equity compensation plan hereafter adopted by the Board (or any committee thereof) until the expiration of the term thereof (or such earlier expiration thereof in the event Kalb's directorship expires, including, without limitation, in the event of Kalb's death, retirement, resignation, failure to stand for re-election or failure to be re-elected) in accordance with the applicable plan instruments and grant documents, whether or not Kalb remains an officer of SCSF Equities. 3. Stock Grants. All shares of Common Stock heretofore and hereafter granted to Kalb pursuant to the 1998 Plan, the 2007 Plan and any other director equity compensation plan hereafter adopted by the Board (or any committee thereof), whether or not subject to forfeiture or other restrictions or limitations or vesting or other requirements, shall be held by Kalb for the sole benefit of SCSF Equities and, upon the sale of such shares of Common Stock (in such amount, at such price and at such time as Kalb shall determine in his sole and absolute discretion, subject to the terms and any forfeiture or other restrictions or limitations or any vesting or other requirements thereof), all net after-tax cash proceeds received by Kalb therefrom (if any) promptly shall be remitted by Kalb directly to SCSF Equities, and Kalb hereby renounces and relinquishes in favor of SCSF Equities all rights and interests in and to all such cash proceeds. It is hereby understood and agreed that Kalb shall retain sole voting, investment and dispositive power (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and for all other purposes), as applicable, in respect of all such shares of Common Stock, and neither SCSF Equities nor any of its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) shall have (or share), directly or indirectly, any voting, investment or dispositive power in respect of such shares of Common Stock (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and for all other purposes). The foregoing shall apply, without limitation, with respect to all shares of Common Stock heretofore and hereafter granted to Kalb pursuant to the 1998 Plan, the 2007 Plan and any other director equity compensation plan hereafter adopted by the Board (or any committee thereof) for so long as Kalb shall continue to hold such shares of Common Stock, whether or not Kalb remains an officer of SCSF Equities. 4. Other Awards. All other director compensation and Company equity participation awards, including, without limitation, stock appreciation (or depreciation) rights, dividend equivalent rights, performance stock or performance unit awards or phantom stock awards, that may be granted to Kalb pursuant to the 2007 Plan and any other director equity compensation plan hereafter adopted by the Board (or any committee thereof), whether or not subject to forfeiture or other restrictions or limitations or vesting or other requirements, shall be held by Kalb for the sole benefit of SCSF Equities, and all net after-tax cash proceeds received by Kalb therefrom (if any) promptly shall be remitted by Kalb directly to SCSF Equities, and Kalb hereby renounces and relinquishes in favor of SCSF Equities all rights and interests in and to all such cash proceeds. To the extent that such awards provide for any voting, investment or dispositive power in respect of securities of the Company to the holder thereof, it is hereby understood and agreed that Kalb shall retain sole voting, investment and dispositive power (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and for all other purposes), as applicable, in respect of all such securities, and neither SCSF Equities nor any of its affiliates (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) shall have (or share), directly or indirectly, any voting, investment or dispositive power in respect of such securities (within the meaning and for all purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act and for all other purposes).
