1.Employee’s Departure Date. Employee’s last day of active employment (“Last Day of Work”) will be June 30, 2019, with a “Departure Date” of July 1, 2019. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that as of 11:59 p.m. on the Departure Date, Employee’s participation will cease in all of the benefit plans of the Company. Employee will be entitled to receive benefits, including any right to exercise any conversion privileges, that are vested and accrued prior to the Departure Date pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company’s benefit plans and programs.
2.Consideration. In consideration for Employee entering into this Agreement and fully abiding by its terms, and assuming Employee has not revoked this Agreement as described in Paragraph 24 below, Kellogg agrees to provide Employee with the following:
(a).Benefits. Employee will receive severance compensation and benefits pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Kellogg Company Severance Benefit Plan (the “Plan”) as in effect on the Departure Date. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has read the Plan and understands its application and meaning.
For purposes of the Plan, Kellogg and Employee agrees that as of the Departure Date Employee is a Senior Executive (as that term is defined in the Plan) and, accordingly, Employee will be entitled to receive a severance pay benefit under the Plan equal to two years of pay (as that term is defined in the Plan) to be paid in bi-weekly installments over a two-year period beginning on the day following the Departure Date (the “Agreement Period”).
(b).AIP Bonus. Employee will be eligible to receive a prorated AIP bonus for 2019 pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Kellogg Company Annual Incentive Plan. The 2019 bonus will be based on the Target Bonus established for Employee for 2019, based on actual performance of the business. The 2019 award shall be prorated for the number of calendar days actively employed (i.e., the number of days employed prior to the Departure Date) during 2019. The pro-rated 2019 AIP will be paid at the same time payment is made to other AIP recipients. Employee acknowledges that the Company reserves the right to modify or terminate the Annual Incentive Plan for actively working salaried employees, including the elements and factors used to determine payout, at any time, and that Employee will be subject to any such changes in the same manner as those changes apply to actively working salaried employees of the Company.
(c).Executive Performance Plan (EPP). Employee will be eligible for a pro-rata payout of the 2017-2019 EPP based on the portion of the performance period that began on 1/1/17 and ends on the Departure Date.

receive their payouts. Employee will not be eligible for and will not receive an EPP award payout for the 2018-2020 EPP and the 2019-2021 EPP.
(d).Stock Options/RSUs. Employee will continue to vest in all outstanding stock option and RSU awards during the Agreement Period. Employee will have 3 months after the end of the Agreement Period or the original option expiration date, whichever is earlier, to exercise any remaining vested options. Any equity that is unvested as of the last day of the Agreement Period, shall be forfeited. Employee will not be eligible for new awards of stock options or RSUs made at any time after the Departure Date.
(e).Health & Welfare Benefits.
(i). Medical, prescription drug, dental, and vision insurance coverage will end as of the Departure Date. Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents will be eligible to continue that coverage under COBRA. Employee shall pay the same amount for this coverage as actively working salaried employees of the Company. Premium contributions will be billed and must be paid on a monthly basis. Failure to timely pay required premiums will result in termination of the coverage.
(ii). Employee shall pay the same amount for this coverage as actively working salaried employees of the Company, and shall make all required premium contributions for this coverage during the Agreement Period. At the end of the Agreement Period, Employee will have the option to convert the group coverage to individual coverage. Premium contributions will be billed and must be paid on a monthly basis. Failure to timely pay required premiums will result in termination of the coverage.
The coverage made available to Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents will be the same coverage made available to actively working salaried employees, except that Company contributions are not made to the health savings accounts of employees who are receiving severance benefits. Employee acknowledges that the Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the health and welfare benefits it makes available to employees at any time, and that Employee will be subject to any such changes.
(f). Other. Employee will remain eligible for the standard executive financial planning benefit through the Agreement Period. Employee acknowledges that the Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the executive financial planning benefit available to executive employees at any time, and that Employee will be subject to any such changes. Employee will be eligible for 12 months of outplacement assistance beginning on the Departure Date. Employee will be paid for any unused, accrued vacation in a lump sum within 30 days following the Departure Date. Employee will be reimbursed for all expenses incurred before the Departure Date that are submitted and approved in accordance with applicable Company policy.

If any restriction set forth in this Paragraph 7 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be interpreted to extend over the maximum period of time, range of activities or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable.
8.Non-Solicitation. In further consideration of the foregoing, Employee agrees that for the two year period following the Departure Date, Employee will not, without the prior written consent of the Chief Legal Officer of Kellogg:
(a).Directly or indirectly solicit the employment of or hire (whether as an employee, officer, director, agent, consultant or independent contractor) any person who is or was at any time during the previous year an officer, director, representative, agent or employee of the Company.

slander; worker’s compensation; disability; personal injury; negligence; discrimination or harassment on the basis of Employee’s race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, sex or pregnancy, age, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, marital or veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable state, federal or local law; retaliation; negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress; fraud; misrepresentation; invasion of privacy; any and all other claims, including any state or local wage and hour related claims that are subject to waiver, by which Employee seeks any form of legal or equitable relief, damages, compensation or benefits (except as set forth in subparagraph ((e)e), below); damages of any nature, including compensatory, general, special or punitive damages; and/or costs, fees or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with any of these matters
(a).No Representation by Kellogg. Employee acknowledges that no Kellogg employee, including any attorney or human resource representative, has provided advice or counsel to Employee regarding the circumstances surrounding Employee’s separation from employment with Kellogg, including the negotiation of any term or provision set forth in this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that Employee’s decision to execute this Agreement is without reliance upon any statements made by any employee or representative of Kellogg.
(b).Covenant Not to Sue. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee agrees not to sue or to institute or cause to be instituted any action in any federal, state, or local court against the Company, including, but not limited to, the claims released in this Paragraph 14.
(c).No Pending Claims/Withdrawal of Claims. Employee represents and warrants that, with the exception of those types of claims listed in subparagraph (e), below, as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, Employee, whether individually or as part of a class or group, has no charges, claims or lawsuits of any kind pending against the Company or any of its past, present and future subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, successors, or their respective officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees that fall within the scope of the release set forth in this Paragraph 14. To the extent that Employee has such pending charges, claims or lawsuits as of the date Employee signs this Agreement, Employee agrees to disclose in writing to the Company all such pending charges, claims or lawsuits and to obtain the immediate dismissal with prejudice of such matters or withdraw from participation in such matters and to provide written confirmation immediately of same (i.e., court order, and/or agency determination) as a condition precedent to Kellogg’s obligations under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, providing any compensation or benefits under this Agreement).
(d).Remedies for Breach. If Employee breaches any portion of this Agreement or disavows any portion of the release set forth in this Paragraph 14, Employee acknowledges and agrees that, in addition to any damages, Employee shall be obligated, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to reimburse Kellogg for all amounts paid to Employee pursuant to this Agreement and under the Plan, and Employee will be liable for all expenses, including costs and attorney’s fees, incurred by any entity released in recovering those amounts or defending a lawsuit or claim, regardless of the outcome. Employee also agrees and acknowledges that if Employee breaches this Agreement, because it would be impractical and excessively difficult to determine the actual damages to the Company as a result of such breach, any remedies at law (such as a right to monetary damages) would be inadequate. Employee, therefore agrees that, if Employee breaches this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law the Company shall have the immediate right (in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy available to it) to a temporary and permanent

(e).Exclusion for Certain Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kellogg and Employee agree that the release given above shall not apply to any claims arising after the date Employee signs this Agreement. Kellogg and Employee also agree that nothing in this Agreement prevents Employee or the Company from instituting any action to enforce the terms of this Agreement or challenge the Agreement’s validity under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, or any other right or recovery that cannot by express and unequivocal terms of law, be limited, waived or extinguished or released (such as claims for workers’ compensation, statutory unemployment benefits, or statutory disability benefits), including those claims referred to in Paragraph 20 below. In addition, Employee and Kellogg agree that nothing herein shall be construed to prevent Employee from enforcing any rights Employee may have under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 to recover vested benefits, or to prohibit Employee from filing a charge or otherwise cooperating or participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by any federal, state or local agency. Employee understands and agrees that Employee is waiving the right to recover monetary damages or other individual relief in connection with any such charge, or investigation or in any proceeding brought by Employee or on Employee’s behalf.
15.Preservation of Company Confidential Information.

As a material condition of this Agreement, Employee agrees that Employee will not, except as authorized in writing on behalf of the Company, use, publish or disclose or authorize anyone to use, publish or disclose, any secret or confidential information or knowledge concerning the business of the Company. Employee additionally acknowledges and agrees that previously executed Company confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements, if any, will continue to remain in effect after the Departure Date.
16.Confidentiality of Agreement. Employee agrees that the terms of this Agreement pertaining to compensation and benefits are confidential and shall be kept strictly confidential. Employee agrees that the compensation and benefit terms contained in this Agreement will not be disclosed to any third party except for Employee’s spouse, tax or legal advisor(s), provided such parties agree to keep such information confidential and, in the case of disclosure to any advisor(s), only to the extent necessary to perform services, or except as disclosure of such matters may be required by law.

and, if approved in advance by the General Counsel of Kellogg, reasonable attorney’s fees incurred as a result of such cooperation.
18.General.
(a).Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, then that provision will be eliminated, modified or restricted in whatever manner is necessary to make the remaining provisions enforceable to the maximum extent allowable by law.
(b).Successors. This Agreement will be binding upon, enforceable by, and inure to the benefit of Employee and Kellogg, and Employee's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees, and to any successor or assignee of Kellogg, but neither this Agreement, nor any rights, payments, or obligations arising under this Agreement may be assigned, pledged, transferred, or hypothecated by Employee.
(c).Controlling Law, Arbitration and Forum for Disputes. Employee agrees that the laws of the State of Michigan will govern this Agreement.

Employee understands and agrees that by agreeing to arbitrate any aforementioned controversies, claims or disputes, Employee and Kellogg are waiving the right to have such controversies, claims and disputes heard or resolved by a jury. Notwithstanding their mutual agreement to arbitrate disputes that may arise between them, and to waive their right to a jury trial with respect to such disputes, Employee and Kellogg agree that either may file an action in Court for the limited purpose of securing injunctive relief in order to preserve the status quo pending arbitration, provided that any such court action for injunctive relief is filed in the Circuit Court of Calhoun County, Michigan or the United States District Court for the Western District of Michigan, whichever court has jurisdiction over the subject matter in dispute, and the parties expressly submit to the jurisdiction of said courts.
(d).Waiver. Neither party to this Agreement can discharge or waive any claim or right arising out of a breach or default under this Agreement unless the discharge or waiver is in writing and is signed by the party that will be bound by the waiver or discharge. A waiver by either party to this Agreement of a breach or default by the other party of any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of future compliance with that provision and that provision will remain in full force and effect.
