(l) “Change in Control” means a change of control event of the Company as described in Code Section 409A and guidance issued thereunder, which provides that a change of control event occurs upon the change in ownership or effective control, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, as follows:

(i) A change in ownership of the Company shall occur on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock or other equity interests of the Company that, together with stock or other equity interest held by such person or group constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock or other equity interests of the Company. However, if any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock or other equity of the Company, the acquisition of additional stock or other equity by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the ownership of the Company or to cause a change in the effective control of the Company. An increase in the percentage of stock or other equity owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which the Company acquires its stock or other equity in exchange for property will be treated as an acquisition of stock or other equity for purposes of this section. This subsection applies only when there is a transfer of stock or other equity (or issuance of stock or other equity) and stock or other equity remains outstanding after the transaction.

(ii) A change in the effective control of the Company shall occur on the date any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the twelve (12)-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock or other equity of the Company possessing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the stock of the Company.

(iii) A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets shall occur on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group acquires (or has acquired during the twelve (12)-month period ending on the date of

the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than seventy five percent (75%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

A change of control does not occur when there is a transfer to a related entity, as described in the Treasury Regulations under Code Section 409A.

This definition shall be subject to and interpreted in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations and other guidance describing a “change in control event” for purposes of Code Section 409A.

(n) “Competitive Activity” means an activity that is in direct competition with the activities of the Company or any of its Affiliates in the States of Florida, Georgia, and Alabama or in any other States in which the Company is engaged in business during the Term of Employment with respect to a business in which the Company is engaged while the Employee was employed by the Company.

render such services to the best of his ability, and use his reasonable best efforts to promote the interests of the Company; provided, however, the Employee may attend to outside investments, serve as a director and /or officer of a non-competing company and serve as an officer or director of, or participant in, educational, welfare, social, religious, and civic organizations so long as those activities do not materially interfere with the Employee’s employment under this Agreement.

(c) Additional Operational Controls. The Employee understands and agrees that the Company will need to adopt (or may have already adopted) operational controls and policies and procedures that are consistent with those of the Parent, as the same may be amended from time to time, including the Parent’s code of conduct and required trainings for employees, and as may be required to ensure compliance with contractual terms and such laws, rules, regulations and local regulations ordinances, including without limitation Federal Acquisition Regulations, Family Medical Leave Act, Affirmative Action requirements, securities laws, election laws and foreign corrupt practices laws, controls over financial reporting (as the same may be required from time to time by the Parent’s board of directors, its auditors, GAAP, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or otherwise required for the Parent and its Affiliates to continue to conduct business in the ordinary course)(collectively, the “Additional Operational Controls”).

(b) Renewal Terms. At the end of the Initial Term, the Company shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to renew the Term of Employment for one (1) additional year by providing written notice to the Employee at least three (3) months prior to the Expiration Date.

(a) Base Salary. The Employee shall receive a Base Salary at an initial annual rate of $260,000 during the Term of Employment, with such Base Salary payable in installments consistent with the Company’s normal payroll schedule, subject to applicable withholding and other taxes. The Base Salary shall be reviewed by the Company, at least annually during the Term of Employment, for merit increases and, as a result of such review in accordance with the Company’s normal practice with respect to similarly situated employees, may be increased by the Company in its sole discretion. In addition, during the Term of Employment, commencing with the second year of employment beginning on January 1, 2010 and each anniversary thereafter, the Base Salary shall be increased, but shall not be decreased, by that percentage by which the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Users, for the Tampa-St.

Petersburg-Clearwater area published by the United States Department of Labor (the “Cost of Living Index”) for the immediately preceding calendar year exceeds such index for the calendar year immediately preceding the immediately preceding calendar year. Any such increase shall take effect immediately upon the publishing of Index for the applicable year. If publication of the Index is discontinued, the parties hereto shall accept comparable statistics on the cost of living for the Tampa, Florida area as computed and published by any agency of the United States government, or if no such agency computes and publishes such statistics, by any regularly published national financial periodical that does compute and publish such statistics. In no event shall the Base Salary annual rate be reduced to less than $260,000 plus any annual increase based on the Cost of Living Index

(b) Performance Bonus. During the initial three (3) year period of the Term of Employment, the Employee shall receive, or be eligible to receive, the following Performance Bonus:

(i) The Company shall pay the Employee a cash performance bonus for prior services rendered of $1,000,000 on or before July 1, 2009.

(ii) The Employee shall be eligible to receive an Additional Performance Bonus based upon the Company’s (A) Backlog at September 30, 2011 (the “Backlog Performance Bonus”) and (B) cumulative EBIT (the “EBIT Performance Bonus”) during the period from January 1, 2009 to September 30, 2011 (the “EBIT Measuring Period”).

(iii) The target Additional Performance Bonus pool for the Employee is $1,000,000 of which (A) $333,333.33 will be based on the Backlog Target and (B) $666,666.66 of which will be based on the EBIT Target.

(iv) The Backlog Performance Bonus of $333,333.33 will be due and payable to the Employee on or before December 31, 2011 if the Company’s Backlog at September 30, 2011 is equal to or greater than $375,000,000 (the “Backlog Target”).

(v) The EBIT Performance Bonus will be due and payable to the Employee on or before December 31, 2011 based on the EBIT Target during the EBIT Measuring Period (without giving effect to any adjustments to the EBIT Target for any incremental cost items) and will equal the product of (A) the percentage obtained, in an amount not to exceed 100%, by dividing the Company’s cumulative EBIT during the EBIT Measuring Period by $25,000,000 (the “EBIT Target”) and (B) $666,666.66; provided, however, that no EBIT Performance Bonus will be due or payable if this equation equals less than 75%. For example, (i) if the Company achieves only 74.9% of the cumulative EBIT Target during the EBIT Measuring Period, then no EBIT Performance Bonus shall be due or payable and (ii) if the Company achieves 125% of the cumulative EBIT Target during the EBIT Measuring Period, then the EBIT Performance Bonus shall be $666,666.66. If, in connection with an indemnification claim under the Purchase Agreement, the Sellers (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) indemnify the Parent for any Losses (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) related to such indemnification claim, then such Losses shall not be included as an expense or otherwise reduce EBIT for purposes of calculating the Performance Bonus pursuant to this Section 4(b).

(vi) Each of the parties hereto expressly acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding the ability to earn the Additional Performance Bonus under the terms of this Agreement, the Employee shall perform his or her duties under this Agreement consistent with the corporate objectives of the Parent and the Company, to the extent that such objectives have been communicated to the Employee, and the existence of the Additional Performance Bonus shall not override the corporate objectives of the Parent or the Company. This clause 4(b)(vi) is a material inducement for the Amendment. For greater clarity, if the Parent or the Company directs or determines to undertake (or not undertake) a project or adopt a policy that would have the effect of diminishing or otherwise adversely affecting the Additional Performance Bonus, the Employee shall carry out the tasks set or policy adopted by the Parent or the Company and shall not be entitled to any payment in respect of the diminution of Additional Performance Bonus that might or would otherwise have been earned.

(vii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control prior to December 31, 2011, the Company shall pay to the Employee an amount equal to $666,667. As a condition to the payment under this Section 4(b)(vii), the Employee shall provide a letter terminating its rights under this Agreement including the right to receive any payments hereunder (other than the payment required by this Section 4(b)(vii)) and execute a general release of claims in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (subject to such modifications as the Company reasonably may request). The provisions of this Section 4(b)(vii) shall survive termination of this Agreement until December 31, 2011.

(a) Reimbursement of Expenses. Upon the submission of proper substantiation by the Employee, and subject to such rules and guidelines as the Company may from time to time adopt, the Company shall reimburse the Employee for all reasonable expenses actually paid or incurred by the Employee during the Term of Employment in the course of and pursuant to the business of the Company. The Employee shall account to the Company in writing for all expenses for which reimbursement is sought and shall supply to the Company copies of all relevant invoices, receipts or other evidence reasonably requested by the Company.

(b) Compensation/Benefit Programs. During the Term of Employment, the Employee shall be entitled to participate in such life insurance, medical, dental and other benefit programs as may be approved from time to time by the Company and any stock purchase or similar plan of the Parent for which employees of subsidiaries of the Parent are eligible to participate, subject to the general eligibility and participation provisions set forth in such plans and applicable law. The Employee further acknowledges and agrees that to the extent required by applicable law, and notwithstanding anything provided in the Original Agreement, this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any other Agreement, the Parent may assume all of the Company’s obligations under the Company’s 401(k) plan.

(c) Other Benefits. The Employee shall be entitled to six (6) weeks of paid vacation each calendar year during the Term of Employment, to be taken at such times as the Employee and the Company shall mutually determine and provided that no vacation time shall significantly interfere with the duties required to be rendered by the Employee hereunder. Any vacation time not taken by Employee during any calendar year may be carried forward into any succeeding calendar year only to the extent permitted by the

Company’s policies, as determined by the Board, in their sole discretion, from time to time. The Employee shall be entitled to the additional benefits set forth on Exhibit E attached hereto and shall receive such additional benefits, if any, as the Board shall from time to time determine. To the extent any such additional benefits would be taxable to the employee as compensation, then to such extent the Employee shall pay all applicable taxes associated therewith.

(d) Indemnification. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless the Employee for all liabilities, costs, expenses, and damages arising out of or in connection with the Employee’s service to the Company under this Agreement. The foregoing indemnification shall be in addition to any rights or benefits that the Employee may have under statute, the Bylaws or Articles of Incorporation of the Company, under a policy of insurance or otherwise. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain customary Director’s and Officer’s insurance covering the Employee during the Term of Employment.

(a) General. The Term of Employment under this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the following:

(ii) On the date that the Company gives written notice to the Employee that the Company is terminating the Term of Employment based on the Company’s determination that the Employee suffers from a Disability;

(iii) If the basis for which the Company is terminating the Term of Employment for “Cause” is reasonably subject to being cured or remedied, then on the sixtieth (60^th) day after the Company delivers written notice to the Employee of its election to terminate the Term of Employment for “Cause” if the Employee has failed to remedy the condition within such 60 days or, if the basis for which the Company is terminating the Term of Employment for “Cause” is not reasonably subject to being cured or remedied, then on the date that the Company provides the Employee with written notice that the Company is terminating the Term of Employment for “Cause”;

The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect, by written notice to the Employee, to terminate the Term of Employment at any time during the foregoing sixty (60) day notice period, (in which case, such termination shall continue to be treated, for purposes of this Agreement, as a termination by the Employee pursuant to this Section 6(a)(v) and not as a termination by the Company).

(i) In the event that the Term of Employment is terminated for any of the reasons stated in Section 6(a)(i), (ii) or (iii) hereof, the Company shall pay to the Employee any unpaid Accrued Obligations through the effective date of the termination of the Term of Employment and shall reimburse the Employee for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject, however, to Section 5(a) hereof.

If the Term of Employment is terminated prior to December 31, 2011 pursuant to any provision of Section 6(a) other than the foregoing, then the Company shall continue to pay to the Employee the Performance Bonus in the manner and at the same times as the Performance Bonus otherwise would have been payable to the Employee.

Following the Term of Employment, for a period of six (6) months, the Employee shall be reasonably available to assist and cooperate, upon reasonable advance notice with due consideration for his other business or personal commitments, in any matter relating to his position with the Company, or his expertise or experience as the Company may reasonably request, including his attendance and truthful testimony where deemed appropriate by the Company, with respect to any investigation or the Company’s defense or prosecution of any existing or future claims or litigations or other proceedings relating to matters in

which he was involved or potentially had knowledge by virtue of his employment with the Company. In no event shall his cooperation interfere with his services for a subsequent employer or other similar service recipient, require travel unless reasonably necessary and shall not exceed ten (10) hours in any given week (unless consented to by the Employee). To the extent permitted by law, the Company agrees that (i) it shall promptly reimburse the Employee for his reasonable and documented expenses in connection with his rendering assistance and/or cooperation under this Section 6(d) upon his presentation of documentation for such expenses and (ii) the Employee shall be reasonably compensated for any services as required under this Section 6(d).

At all times during the Restricted Period, the Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or for any other person, firm, corporation, partnership, association or other entity (i) employ or attempt to employ or enter into any contractual arrangement with any employee, consultant or independent contractor performing services for the Company, or any Affiliate, unless such employee, consultant or independent contractor, has not been employed or engaged by the Company for a period in excess of twelve (12) months, and/or (ii) call on or solicit any of the actual, former or targeted prospective customers or clients of the Company or any Affiliate on behalf of any person or entity in connection with any Competitive Activity, nor shall the Employee make known the names and addresses of such actual, former or targeted prospective customers or clients, or any information relating in any manner to the trade or business relationships of the

(c) Confidential Information. The Employee shall not at any time divulge, communicate, use to the detriment of the Company or for the benefit of any other person or persons, or misuse in any way, any Confidential Information pertaining to the business of the Company. Any Confidential Information or data now or hereafter acquired by the Employee with respect to the business of the Company (which shall include, but not be limited to, information concerning the Company’s financial condition, prospects, technology, customers, suppliers, sources of leads and methods of doing business) shall be deemed a valuable, special and unique asset of the Company that is received by the Employee in confidence and as a fiduciary, and the Employee shall remain a fiduciary to the Company with respect to all of such information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be deemed to restrict the Employee from disclosing Confidential Information as required to perform his duties under this Agreement or to the extent required by law. If any person or authority makes a demand on the Employee purporting to legally compel him to divulge any Confidential Information, the Employee immediately shall give notice of the demand to the Company so that the Company may first assess whether to challenge the demand prior to the Employee’s divulging of such Confidential Information. The Employee shall not divulge such Confidential Information until the Company either has concluded not to challenge the demand, or has exhausted its challenge, including appeals, if any. Upon request by the Company, the Employee shall deliver promptly to the Company upon termination of his services for the Company, or at any time thereafter as the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, records, reports, manuals, drawings, designs, computer files in any media and other documents (and all copies thereof) containing such Confidential Information.

All processes, concepts, techniques, inventions and works of authorship, including new contributions, improvements, formats, packages, programs, systems, machines, compositions of matter manufactured, developments, applications and discoveries, and all copyrights, patents, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights associated therewith conceived, invented, made, developed or created by the Employee during the Term of Employment either during the course of performing work for the Company or their clients or which are related in any manner to the business (commercial or experimental) of the Company or its clients (collectively, the “Work Product”) shall belong exclusively to the Company and shall, to the extent possible, be considered a work made by the Employee for hire for the Company within the meaning of Title 17 of the United States Code. To the extent the Work Product may not be considered work made by the Employee for hire for the Company, the Employee agrees to assign, and automatically assign at the time of creation of the Work Product, without any requirement of further consideration, any right, title, or interest the Employee may have in such Work Product. Upon the request of the Company, the Employee shall take such further actions, including execution and delivery of instruments of conveyance, as may be appropriate to

give full and proper effect to such assignment. The Employee shall further: (i) promptly disclose the Work Product to the Company; (ii) assign to the Company, without additional compensation, all patent or other rights to such Work Product for the United States and foreign countries; (iii) sign all papers necessary to carry out the foregoing; and (iv) give testimony in support of his inventions, all at the sole cost and expense of the Company.

(e) Books and Records. All books, records, and accounts relating in any manner to the customers or clients of the Company, whether prepared by the Employee or otherwise coming into the Employee’s possession, shall be the exclusive property of the Company and shall be returned immediately to the Company on termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder or on the Company’s request at any time.

(f) Acknowledgment by Employee. The Employee acknowledges and confirms that the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7 (including without limitation the length of the term of the provisions of this Section 7) are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company, and are not overbroad, overlong, or unfair and are not the result of overreaching, duress or coercion of any kind. The Employee further acknowledges and confirms that the compensation payable to the Employee under this Agreement is in consideration for the duties and obligations of the Employee hereunder, including the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 7, and that such compensation is sufficient, fair and reasonable. The Employee further acknowledges and confirms that his full, uninhibited and faithful observance of each of the covenants contained in this Section 7 will not cause him any undue hardship, financial or otherwise, and that enforcement of each of the covenants contained herein will not impair his ability to obtain employment commensurate with his abilities and on terms fully acceptable to him or otherwise to obtain income required for the comfortable support of him and his family and the satisfaction of the needs of his creditors. The Employee acknowledges and confirms that his special knowledge of the business of the Company is such as would cause the Company serious injury or loss if he were to use such ability and knowledge to the benefit of a competitor or were to compete with the Company in violation of the terms of this Section 7. The Employee further acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7 are intended to be, and shall be, for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by, the Company’s successors and assigns. The Employee expressly agrees that upon any breach or violation of the provisions of this Section 7, the Company shall be entitled, as a matter of right, in addition to any other rights or remedies it may have, to (i) temporary and/or permanent injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as described in Section 7(g) hereof, and (ii) such damages as are provided at law or in equity. The existence of any claim or cause of action against the Company or its affiliates, whether predicated upon this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of the restrictions contained in this Section 7.

(g) Reformation by Court. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision of this Section 7 is invalid or more restrictive than permitted under the governing law of such jurisdiction, then only as to enforcement of this Section 7 within the jurisdiction of such court, such provision shall be interpreted or reformed and enforced as if it provided for the maximum restriction permitted under such governing law.

(h) Extension of Time. If the Employee shall be in violation of any provision of this Section 7, then each time limitation set forth in this Section 7 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation or violations occur. If the Company seeks injunctive relief from such violation in any court, then the covenants set forth in this Section 7 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the pendency of such proceeding including all appeals by the Employee.

(i) Injunction. It is recognized and hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto that a breach by the Employee of any of the covenants contained in Section 7 of this Agreement will cause irreparable harm and damage to the Company, the monetary amount of which may be virtually impossible to ascertain. As a result, the Employee recognizes and hereby acknowledges that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining and restraining any violation of any or all of the covenants contained in Section 7 of this Agreement by the Employee or any of his affiliates, associates, partners or agents, either directly or indirectly, and that such right to injunction shall be cumulative and in addition to whatever other remedies the Company may possess.

8. Representations and Warranties of Employee. The Employee represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a) The Employee’s employment will not conflict with or result in his breach of any agreement to which he is a party or otherwise may be bound;

(b) The Employee has not violated, and in connection with his employment with the Company will not violate, any non-solicitation, non-competition or other similar covenant or agreement of a prior employer by which he is or may be bound; and

(c) In connection with Employee’s employment with the Company, he will not use any confidential or proprietary information that he may have obtained in connection with employment with any prior employer; and

(d) The Employee has not (i) been convicted of any felony; or (ii) committed any criminal act with respect to Employee’s current or any prior employment; and

(e) The Employee is not dependent on alcohol or the illegal use of drugs. The Employee recognizes that Company shall have the right to conduct random drug testing of its employees and that Employee may be called upon in such a manner.

9. Taxes. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required to be made by the Company hereunder to the Employee or his estate or beneficiaries shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. In lieu of withholding such amounts, in whole or in part, the Company may, in its sole discretion, accept other provisions for payment of taxes and withholding as required by law, provided it is satisfied that all requirements of law affecting its responsibilities to withhold have been satisfied.

10. Assignment. The Company shall have the right to assign this Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder in whole, but not in part, to any corporation or other entity with or into which the Company may hereafter merge or consolidate or to which the

Company may transfer all or substantially all of its assets, if in any such case said corporation or other entity shall by operation of law or expressly in writing assume all obligations of the Company hereunder as fully as if it had been originally made a party hereto, but may not otherwise assign this Agreement or its rights and obligations hereunder. The Employee may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder.

11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

12. Jurisdiction and Venue. The parties acknowledge that a substantial portion of the negotiations, anticipated performance and execution of this Agreement occurred or shall occur in Tampa, Florida, and that, therefore, without limiting the jurisdiction or venue of any other federal or state courts, each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees that any suit, action or legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement which is expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be brought in a court of law, shall be brought in the courts of record of the State of Florida in Hillsborough County or the court of the United States, Middle District of Florida; (ii) consents to the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or proceeding; (iii) waives any objection which it or he may have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts; and (iv) agrees that service of any court papers may be effected on such party by mail, as provided in this Agreement, or in such other manner as may be provided under applicable laws or court rules in such courts.

13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and, upon its effectiveness, shall supersede all prior agreements, understandings and arrangements, both oral and written, between the Employee and the Company (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such subject matter hereof, including but not limited to, the Original Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified in any way unless by a written instrument signed by the Company, the Parent and the Employee. The Employee hereby acknowledges that any compensation or benefits the Employee otherwise may have been entitled to under the Original Agreement are hereby waived.

14. Survival. The respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive any termination of the Employee’s employment hereunder, including without limitation, the Company’s obligations under Section 6 and the Employee’s obligations under Section 7 above, and the expiration of the Term of Employment, to the extent necessary to the intended preservation of such rights and obligations.

15. Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered by courier, sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested or sent by confirmed facsimile transmission addressed as set forth herein. Notices personally delivered, sent by facsimile or sent by overnight courier shall be deemed given on the date of delivery and notices mailed in accordance with the foregoing shall be deemed given upon the earlier of receipt by the addressee, as evidenced by the return receipt thereof, or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail. Notice shall be sent (i) if to the Company, addressed to The

PBSJ Corporation, 5300 West Cypress Street, Suite 200, Tampa, Florida FL 33607, Attention: Benjamin P. Butterfield, General Counsel, and (ii) if to the Employee, to his address as reflected on the payroll records of the Company, or to such other address as either party shall request by notice to the other in accordance with this provision.

16. Benefits; Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be for the benefit of and binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and, where permitted and applicable, assigns, including, without limitation, any successor to the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of stock, sale of assets or otherwise.

17. Right to Consult with Counsel; No Drafting Party. The Employee acknowledges having read and considered all of the provisions of this Agreement carefully, and having had the opportunity to consult with counsel of his own choosing, and, given this, the Employee agrees that the obligations created hereby are not unreasonable. The Employee acknowledges that he has had an opportunity to negotiate any and all of these provisions and no rule of construction shall be used that would interpret any provision in favor of or against a party on the basis of who drafted the Agreement.

18. Severability. The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining portions of this Agreement or any part thereof, all of which are inserted conditionally on their being valid in law, and, in the event that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, provisions, sections or articles contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid, this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or sentences, clause or clauses, provisions or provisions, section or sections or article or articles had not been inserted. If such invalidity is caused by length of time or size of area, or both, the otherwise invalid provision will be considered to be reduced to a period or area which would cure such invalidity.

19. Waivers. The waiver by either party hereto of a breach or violation of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation.

20. Damages; Attorneys Fees. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent the Company or the Employee from seeking and recovering from the other damages sustained by either or both of them as a result of its or his breach of any term or provision of this Agreement, including without limitation damages to the Company arising before or as a result of the Company’s termination of the Term of Employment for Cause or the Employee’s termination of employment without Good Reason. In the event that either party hereto seeks to collect any damages resulting from, or the injunction of any action constituting, a breach of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, then the party found to be at fault shall pay all reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees of the other.

21. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Employee hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives any right that the Employee may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation based hereon, or arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement and any agreement, document or instrument contemplated to be executed in connection herewith, or any course of conduct, course of dealing statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of any party hereto.

22. Section Headings. The article, section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

23. No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person other than the Company, the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

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

(a) General. It is the intention of both the Company and the Employee that the benefits and rights to which the Employee could be entitled pursuant to this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations and other guidance promulgated or issued thereunder (“Section 409A”), to the extent that the requirements of Section 409A are applicable thereto, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention. If the Employee or the Company believes, at any time, that any such benefit or right that is subject to Section 409A does not so comply, it shall promptly advise the other and shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to amend the terms of such benefits and rights such that they comply with Section 409A (with the most limited possible economic effect on the Employee and on the Company).

(b) Distributions on Account of Separation from Service. If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Employee’s employment shall be made unless and until the Employee incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(i) If the Employee is a “specified employee”, then no payment or benefit that is payable on account of the Employee’s “separation from service”, as that term is defined for purposes of Section 409A, shall be made before the date that is six months after the Employee’s “separation from service” (or, if earlier, the date of the Employee’s death) if and to the extent that such payment or benefit constitutes deferred compensation (or may be nonqualified deferred compensation) under Section 409A and such deferral is required to comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Any payment or benefit delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid out or provided in a single lump sum at the end of such required delay period in order to catch up to the original payment schedule.

(ii) For purposes of this provision, the Employee shall be considered to be a “specified employee” if, at the time of his separation from service, the Employee is a “key employee”, within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Code, of the Company (or any person or entity with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Section 414(b) or Section 414(c) of the Code) any stock in which is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise.

(d) No Acceleration of Payments. Neither the Company nor the Employee, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Section 409A, except in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Section 409A.

(e) Treatment of Each Installment as a Separate Payment. For purposes of applying the provisions of Section 409A to this Agreement, each separately identified amount to which the Employee is entitled under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment. In addition, to the extent permissible under Section 409A, any series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments.

(i) Any reimbursements by the Company to the Employee of any eligible expenses under this Agreement that are not excludable from the Employee’s income for Federal income tax purposes (the “Taxable Reimbursements”) shall be made by no later than the last day of the taxable year of the Employee following the year in which the expense was incurred.

(ii) The amount of any Taxable Reimbursements, and the value of any in-kind benefits to be provided to the Employee, during any taxable year of the Employee shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year of the Employee.

(iii) The right to Taxable Reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

1. (“Employee”), for himself and his family, heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives and their respective successors and assigns, in exchange for the consideration received pursuant to Section 6 of the Employment Agreement to which this release is attached as Exhibit A (the “Employment Agreement”), does hereby release and forever discharge Peter R. Brown Construction Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), its subsidiaries, affiliated companies, successors and assigns, and its current or former directors, officers, employees, shareholders or agents in such capacities (collectively with the Company, the “Released Parties”) from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, controversies, claims and demands whatsoever, for or by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, whether known or unknown including, but not limited to, all claims under any applicable laws arising under or in connection with Employee’s employment or termination thereof, whether for tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, wrongful discharge, intentional infliction of emotional distress, or defamation or injuries incurred on the job or incurred as a result of loss of employment. Employee acknowledges that the Company encouraged him to consult with an attorney of his choosing, and through this General Release of Claims encourages him to consult with his attorney with respect to possible claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”) and that he understands that the ADEA is a Federal statute that, among other things, prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment and employee benefits and benefit plans. Without limiting the generality of the release provided above, Employee expressly waives any and all claims under ADEA that he may have as of the date hereof. Employee further understands that by signing this General Release of Claims he is in fact waiving, releasing and forever giving up any claim under the ADEA as well as all other laws within the scope of this paragraph 1 that may have existed on or prior to the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph 1 to the contrary, this General Release of Claims shall not apply to (i) any actions to enforce rights to receive any payments or benefits arising under Sections 4(b) or 6(b) of the Employment Agreement, (ii) any rights or claims that may arise as a result of events occurring after the date this General Release of Claims is executed, (iii) any indemnification rights Employee may have as a former officer or director of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies, including rights arising under Section 5(d) of the Employment Agreement, (iv) any claims for benefits under any directors’ and officers’ liability policy maintained by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliated companies in accordance with the terms of such policy, and (v) any rights as a holder of equity securities of the Company, including any rights under the Purchase Agreement (as such term is defined in the Employment Agreement).

2. Employee represents that he has not filed against the Released Parties any complaints, charges, or lawsuits arising out of his employment, or any other matter arising on or prior to the date of this General Release of Claims, and covenants and agrees that he will never individually or with any person file, or commence the filing of, any charges, lawsuits, complaints or proceedings with any governmental agency, or against the Released Parties with respect to any of the matters released by Employee pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof (a “Proceeding”); provided, however, Employee shall not have relinquished his right to commence a Proceeding to challenge whether Employee knowingly and voluntarily waived his rights under ADEA.

3. Employee hereby acknowledges that the Company has informed him that he has up to twenty-one (21) days to sign this General Release of Claims and he may knowingly and voluntarily waive that twenty-one (21) day period by signing this General Release of Claims earlier. Employee also understands that he shall have seven (7) days following the date on which he signs this General Release of Claims within which to revoke it by providing a written notice of his revocation to the Company.

4. Employee acknowledges that this General Release of Claims will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State.

5. Employee acknowledges that he has read this General Release of Claims, that he has been advised that he should consult with an attorney before he executes this general release of claims, and that he understands all of its terms and executes it voluntarily and with full knowledge of its significance and the consequences thereof.

6. This General Release of Claims shall take effect on the eighth day following Employee’s execution of this General Release of Claims unless Employee’s written revocation is delivered to the Company within seven (7) days after such execution.
