Exhibit 10.3
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
     THIS AGREEMENT, is made and entered into as of December 1, 1993 by and among Graham Manufacturing Co., Inc., a New York corporation with offices at 20 Florence Avenue, Batavia, New York 14020 (“GMC”), Graham Corporation, a Delaware corporation with offices at 20 Florence Avenue, Batavia, New York 14020 (“Holding Company”) and James R. Lines, currently residing at 11 Hillside Parkway, Lancaster, New York 14086 (the “Executive”).
     The parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, and in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, agree as follows:
     1. Employment.
     GMC hereby employs the Executive and the Executive hereby accepts employment (such employment, hereafter, the “Employment”) as Vice President of Marketing in charge of the Application and Computer Engineering Departments of GMC upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Failure in any year of the Board of Directors of GMC (“GMC Board”) at its Annual Meeting to elect the Executive to the office of Vice President of Marketing shall constitute termination of the Executive’s employment without cause for purposes of this Agreement.
     2. Duties. The Executive is engaged as Vice President of Marketing of GMC. The Executive shall have authority and responsibility for the operation and management, on a day to day basis, of the Application and Computer Engineering Departments of GMC, and shall perform such duties consistent with Executive’s title as may from time to time be required of Executive by the GMC Board or by either the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer or the President of GMC, to whom Executive shall be directly responsible. The Executive’s office shall be at GMC’s headquarters office in Batavia, New York, or within a reasonable commuting distance thereof. The Executive agrees to travel to the extent reasonably necessary for the performance of his duties hereunder. The Executive shall devote his full business time to the business and affairs of GMC and shall use his best efforts, skill and ability in performing his duties on behalf of GMC.
     3. Term.
          (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement to the contrary, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be and remain in effect during the period of employment (“Term”) established under this Section 3. The Term shall be for a term of one (1) year commencing on December I, 1993, plus such extensions, if any, as are provided pursuant to Section 3(b).
          (b) Except as provided in Section 3(c), beginning on the date of this Agreement, the Term shall be automatically extended for one (1) additional day each day, unless either GMC or the Executive elects not to extend the Term further by giving written notice to the other party, in which case the Term shall end on the first anniversary of the date on which such written notice is given; provided, however, that in any event, the Term shall end on the last day of the month in which the Executive attains age sixty-five (65). Upon termination of the Executive’s employment with GMC for any reason whatsoever, any daily extensions provided pursuant to this Section 3, if not theretofore discontinued, shall cease and the remaining unexpired Term under this Agreement shall


 

-2-

be a fixed period ending on the first anniversary of the date on which the daily extensions were discontinued.
          (c) Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary: (i) the Executive’s employment with GMC may be terminated during the Term, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall mandate or prohibit a continuation of the Executive’s employment following the expiration of the Term upon such terms and conditions as GMC and the Executive may mutually agree upon.
     4. Base Compensation. As the base compensation for all services to be rendered by the Executive in any capacity to GMC and its affiliates, GMC agrees to pay to the Executive, and the Executive shall accept, a salary at a rate of $85,000 per annum, payable in arrears in equal monthly installments, subject to such deductions and withholdings as may be required by law. Upon cessation by GMC of the five percent wage reduction in effect as of the date hereof, the Executive’s salary shall be increased by five percent (5%). During the fourth quarter of each year commencing in calendar year 1994, GMC will review the salary rate of the Executive, taking into consideration such factors as the Executive’s performance during the preceding year and such other matters as it deems relevant and, in its sole discretion, may increase the salary of the Executive for the following calendar year, to be effective from January 1 of such following year, to such rate and for such period of time as GMC deems proper, provided that GMC shall in no event be required to grant or to continue any such increase. However, in the event that any person or entity acquires twenty percent (20%) or more of the outstanding equity stock of GMC’s parent, the Holding Company, or GMC, who was not an owner of twenty percent of the equity stock of either the Holding Company (in the case of an acquisition of Holding Company stock) or GMC (in the case of an acquisition of GMC stock) prior to December 1, 1993, or in the event that any person or entity acquires twenty percent (20%) or more of the assets of either the Holding Company or GMC who was not an owner of twenty percent of the assets of either the Company (in the case of an acquisition of Holding Company assets) or of GMC (in the case of an acquisition of GMC assets) prior to December 1, 1993, and provided that in such event, such person or entity (i) initiated a tender offer for the capital stock of the Company or GMC other than at the invitation of either the Holding Company Board or the GMC Board; or (ii) caused its nominee or nominees to be elected to the Holding Company Board or the GMC Board as a result of a proxy contest in which election of its nominees, or any of them, was not endorsed by management of the Holding Company or GMC in any proxy statement prepared for the purpose; or (iii) acquired its twenty percent or greater interest in either the Holding Company or GMC subsequent to and within two years of any other party or entity’s initiation of a tender offer, initiation of a proxy contest, or offer to acquire all, or more than 20% of the outstanding capital stock of the Holding Company or GMC for a stated price or in exchange for any non-cash form of consideration then, subsequent to such acquisition of twenty percent stock or twenty percent asset ownership of either the Holding Company or GMC by any such person or entity: (1) if for any calendar year a salary increase at least equal to the increase in the U.S. City All-Items Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers during the previous twelve months, is not granted; or if (2) the Executive’s base salary is decreased at any time, then in either event the Executive may in his sole discretion terminate this Agreement upon thirty days’ written notice given at any time during the calendar year for which no such increase was granted, or during the twelve month period following any such decrease in salary, and thereupon GMC shall be obligated to pay the Executive the amounts, and provide the benefits, specified in Section 9.3 of this Agreement.

     5. Bonuses. GMC shall pay Executive bonuses subject to The Executive Bonus Plan of Graham Corporation, as it may be amended from time to time, or such other bonus plans or arrangements of GMC, or made available to GMC by the Holding Company, as may be in effect from time to time, as determined by GMC’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof.
     6. Benefits. During the term of this Agreement, GMC shall provide the following benefits to the Executive:
          6.1 Medical. GMC will provide the Executive health coverage for himself and his family in accordance with the Graham Manufacturing Co., Inc. Self Insured Medical/Dental Plan, as the same may be amended from time to time, or in accordance with such other health coverage plan as GMC may adopt.

          6.4 General Benefits.

Nothing in this Section 6.4 shall be construed to limit or restrict the complete discretion of the Board of Directors of the Holding Company or, as the case may be, the Board of Directors of GMC, to amend, modify or terminate employee benefit or bonus plan or plans of the Holding Company or GMC where such action generally affects plan participants or employees, including the Executive.
          6.5 Life Insurance. (a) GMC will provide life insurance for the executive providing coverage in an amount equal to three times base salary. (b) The Executive agrees that GMC, in its discretion, may apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit, life insurance on his life in any amount or amounts considered advisable, and that he shall have no right, title or interest therein. The employee further agrees to submit to any medical or other examination and to execute and deliver any application or other instrument in writing, reasonably necessary to effectuate such insurance, provided such actions do not harm the Executive’s ability to otherwise obtain or retain life insurance(s). (c) As soon as practical following the termination of employment for any reason except for cause, GMC will cause to be transferred, assigned or otherwise conveyed to the Executive any right, title and interest that either may have in and to any life insurance contract (other than any group-term life insurance contract) under which the Executive’s life is insured, including full rights of ownership in and to the cash surrender value thereof (net of any loans obtained against such cash surrender value), and the Executive shall assume all obligations for the payment of any premiums which may become due with respect to such insurance contract after the termination of employment.
     7. Use of Automobile.


 

-4-

          7.1 GMC shall, at its expense, provide the Executive with an automobile of the Executive’s choice for use by the Executive in performance of his duties under this Agreement, provided that the annual lease payments made by GMC on such automobile shall not exceed in any year seven percent (7%) of the Executive’s annual base salary for such year. GMC shall pay or reimburse the Executive for all reasonable and necessary expenses of maintenance and operation of such automobile incurred or paid for by the Executive, and shall obtain, and include the name of the Executive as one of the assureds under, a liability insurance policy for injuries to persons and property caused by the operation of such automobile. At the end of the term of any automobile lease entered into by GMC pursuant to this Section 7.1, GMC may, in its discretion, either (a) lease a new automobile for the Executive’s use; or (b) provide the Executive with the continued use of the same automobile, at GMC’s expense. In the event GMC elects to do neither, GMC shall permit the Executive to purchase the automobile from the lessor.
          7.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.1 above, the Executive represents that he now carries automobile liability insurance, with respect to any automobile owned by him, for injuries to persons and property.
     8. Expenses. GMC shall pay or reimburse the Executive for all reasonable and necessary traveling and other expenses incurred or paid by the Executive in connection with the performance of his duties under this Agreement upon presentation of expense statements or vouchers and such other supporting information as it may from time to time request. However, the amount available for such traveling and other expenses may be fixed in advance by the Chairman, the President or the Board of Directors of GMC.
     9. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate prior to the Term expiration date, hereinabove set forth, in the event that the Executive shall die or GMC shall determine that the Executive has become disabled, or if the Executive shall be dismissed for cause or without cause, as hereinafter provided.
          9.1 Disability. GMC may determine that the Executive has become disabled, for purposes of this Agreement, in the event that the Executive shall fail, because of illness or incapacity, to render for nine (9) successive months, or for shorter periods aggregating twelve (12) months or more in any period of eighteen (18) months, services of the character contemplated by this Agreement; and thereupon this Agreement and the employment and all rights of the Executive hereunder shall be deemed to have been terminated as of the end of the calendar month in which such determination was made.
          9.2 For Cause. GMC may dismiss the Executive for cause in the event that it determines that there has been willful misconduct by the Executive in connection with the performance of his duties hereunder, or any other conduct on the part of the Executive which has been materially injurious to GMC or any affiliate; and thereupon this Agreement and the Employment shall terminate effective upon the delivery to the Executive of written notice that the GMC Board has made such determination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall be determined only by a good faith finding thereof by the GMC Board, which shall afford the Executive the opportunity to appear before it prior to finalizing any such determination. If the Executive in good faith contests a termination for cause by GMC, GMC will pay all legal fees and other expenses incurred by the Executive, as the Executive is billed for such costs, within ten (10) days of periodic


 

-5-

submission to GMC of statements of charges of attorneys and statements of other expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with such challenge; the Executive will reimburse GMC if it should be determined by a court of final adjudication that the Executive did not act in good faith in bringing such challenge.
          9.3 Without Cause. GMC may dismiss the Executive without cause at any time upon thirty (30) days notice to the Executive. In the event GMC dismisses the Executive other than for cause, or if the Executive resigns because of a material breach of this Agreement by GMC, GMC shall thereupon pay to the Executive (a) the compensation due him to the date of termination, plus (b) an additional lump sum in an amount equal to twelve months’ salary at the rate specified in Section 4 hereinabove. At any time prior to the effective date of termination of employment, the Executive may in writing elect to receive the additional lump sum equal to twelve months’ salary in monthly installments of up to, but not to exceed, thirty-six (36) successive months. In addition, GMC shall (a) provide the Executive with continuing health care coverage, as described in Section 6.1 hereof, for a period of thirty-six (36) months following the effective date of termination of employment; (b) shall pay for, or in the Executive’s sole discretion, reimburse the Executive as the Executive is billed, within ten (10) days of periodic submission to GMC of statements of charges, for outplacement services from a provider agreed to by the Executive and GMC until the sooner of (i) the Executive’s commencement of employment with another employer or (ii) thirty-six (36) months following the effective date of termination of employment; and (c) shall assign to the Executive its interest in the automobile lease in force at the time of termination of employment and shall reimburse the Executive for each remaining lease payment thereafter, within ten (10) days of the due date of each remaining lease payment; or in the event that termination of employment occurs following the expiration of such automobile lease and prior to GMC extending such lease or leasing a new automobile for the Executive, GMC, if it then owns the automobile, shall, at the election of the Executive, sell the automobile to the Executive for the value for such automobile stated in the then-current edition of the NADA Official Used Car Guide for Domestic and Imported Cars and Trucks. In the event that the provisions of this Section 9.3 are triggered by discharge of the Executive without cause by GMC, the Executive shall resign from all offices and directorships all subsidiaries and affiliates of GMC and of the Holding Company, upon payment to the Executive of the amounts referred to in the second sentence of this Section 9.3, and the performance by GMC of its obligations pursuant to the fourth sentence, subsections (c) and (d), of this Section 9.3.

     10. Covenants of Executive.
          The Executive acknowledges that: (a) the business of GMC and its affiliates, as currently conducted and as conducted from time to time throughout the term of this Agreement (collectively, the “Business”), is conducted by and is proposed to be conducted on a world wide basis (the “Company’s Market”); (b) the Business involves providing design, engineering and manufacture of certain vacuum and heat transfer equipment, including but not limited to steam condensers, steam jet ejectors, shell and tube heat exchangers, plate and frame heat exchangers, Heliflow heat exchangers, liquid ring vacuum pumps and rotary piston pumps; (c) GMC has


 

-6-

developed trade secrets and confidential information concerning the Business; and (d) the agreements and covenants contained in this Section 10 are essential to protect the Business of GMC. In order to induce GMC to enter into this Employment Agreement, the Executive covenants and agrees that:
          10.1 Agreement Not To Compete. In the event that the Executive resigns (for reasons other than a material breach of this Agreement by GMC) or departs from the employ of GMC without the approval of the GMC Board or is discharged for cause, then for a period of twelve (12) months after such resignation, departure or discharge (such period of time hereinafter the “Restricted Period”), neither the Executive nor any entity of which 20% or more of the beneficial ownership is held by the Executive or a person related to the Executive by blood or marriage (“Controlled Entity”) will, anywhere in the Company’s Market, directly or indirectly own, manage, operate, control, invest or acquire an interest in, or herewise engage or participate in, whether as a proprietor, partner, stockholder, director, officer or employee, any business which competes in the Company’s Market with the Business, without the prior written consent of GMC. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Executive may make a passive investment in any publicly-traded company or entity in an amount not to exceed 5% of the voting stock of any such company or entity.
          10.2 Agreement Not To Interfere in Business Relationships. (a) During the Restricted Period, neither the Executive nor any Controlled Entity will directly or indirectly solicit, induce or influence customer, or any other person which has a business relationship with GMC or any affiliate, or which had on the date of this Agreement such a relationship with GMC or any affiliate, to discontinue or reduce the extent of such relationship with GMC or any affiliate in the Company’s Market without the prior written consent of GMC. (b) During the Restricted Period, neither the Executive nor any Controlled Entity will (i) directly or indirectly recruit, solicit or otherwise induce or influence any shareholder or employee of GMC or any of its affiliates to discontinue such employment or other relationship with GMC or any affiliate without the prior written consent of GMC, or (ii) employ or seek to employ, or cause or permit any Competitive Business which competes in the Company’s Markets to employ or seek to employ for any Competitive Business, any person who is then (or was at any time within six months prior to the date the Executive or the Competitive Business employs or seeks to employ such person) employed by GMC or any affiliate without the prior written consent of GMC. Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from providing a letter of recommendation to an Employee with respect to a future employment opportunity, nor prohibit the Executive from making general employment advertisements in mass-circulation newspapers or other mass media.
          10.3 Confidentiality. During the Restricted Period, neither the Executive nor any Controlled Entity will directly or indirectly disclose to anyone, or use or otherwise exploit for the Executive’s or any Controlled Entity’s own benefit or for the benefit of anyone other than GMC, any confidential information, including, without limitation, any confidential “know-how”, trade secrets, customer lists, details of customer contracts, pricing policies, operational methods, marketing plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, business acquisition plans and new personnel acquisition plans of GMC or any affiliate related to the Business or any portion or phase of any scientific, engineering or technical information, design, process, procedure, formula, improvement, discovery, invention, machinery or device of GMC or any affiliate that is not generally known to the competitors of the Company whether or not in written or tangible form (hereinafter referred to as


 

-7-

“Confidential Information”). The term “Confidential Information” does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Executive or a Controlled Entity or any agent or other representative thereof. Neither the Executive nor any Controlled Entity shall have any obligation hereunder to keep confidential any Confidential Information to the extent disclosure is required by law, or determined in good faith by the Executive to be necessary or appropriate to comply with any legal or regulatory order, regulation or requirement; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by law, the Executive or the Controlled Entity concerned shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement so that GMC may seek an appropriate protective order. It is understood that in any new employment, the Executive may use his ordinary skill and non-confidential knowledge, even though said skill and non-confidential knowledge may have been gained at GMC. The Executive’s obligations under this Section 10.3 shall be in addition to, not in substitution for, any common law fiduciary duties the Executive has to GMC regarding information acquired during the course of his employment.
10.4 Intellectual Property. The Executive shall communicate to GMC full information concerning all inventions, improvements, discoveries, formulas, processes, systems of organization, management procedures, software or computer applications (hereinafter, collectively, “Intellectual Property”) made or conceived by him either solely or jointly with others while in the employ of GMC, whether or not perfected during his period of employment and which shall be within the existing or contemplated scope of the Business during his employment. The Executive will assist GMC and its nominees in every way at GMC’s expense in obtaining patents for such Intellectual Property as may be patentable in any and all countries and the Executive will execute all papers GMC may desire and assignments thereof to GMC or its nominees and said Intellectual Property shall be and remain the property of GMC and its nominees, if any, whether patented or not or assigned or not.
10.5 Survival of Covenants. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, the covenants and agreements contained in this Section 10 shall survive, shall continue thereafter, and shall not expire unless and except as expressly set forth in such Section.
10.6 Remedies. The parties to this Agreement agree that (a) if either the Executive or any Controlled Entity breaches any provision of this Section 10, the damage to GMC and its affiliates will be substantial, although difficult to ascertain, and money damages will not afford an adequate remedy, and (b) if either the Executive or any Controlled Entity is in breach of this Agreement, or threatens a breach of this Agreement, GMC shall be entitled in its own right and/or on behalf of one or more of its affiliates, in addition to all other rights and remedies as may be available at law or in equity, to (i) injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or restrain a breach of this Agreement and (ii) may require the breaching party to pay damages as the result of any transactions constituting a breach hereof.
     11. Indemnification of Executive. In the event the Employment is terminated for any reason, (a) GMC will hold harmless and indemnify the Executive for all acts or omissions and for any suits it has at law or in equity, claims, actions or other proceedings against the Executive initiated either prior to the termination of employment or thereafter which relate to duties performed in good faith by the Executive while employed by GMC; and (b) the Company will retain the Executive as named insured under any directors’ and officers’ insurance policies it may have, for


 

-8-

acts of the Executive during the time he served as an officer of the Company and GMC. Additionally, all legal and other costs incurred by the Executive to defend himself will be paid by GMC, as the Executive is billed for such costs, within ten (10) days of periodic submission to GMC of statements of charges of attorneys and statements of other expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with such defense.
     12. Effect of Waiver. The waiver by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach thereof.
     13. Notice. Any and all notices provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be physically delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested to the parties at their respective addresses set forth hereinabove. Either party may from time to time designate a different address for notices to be sent to such party by giving the other party due notice of such different address.
     14. Validity. If any part of this Agreement shall be found to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall be deemed to be severable and the remaining portions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
     15. Modification and Assignment. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement and all of its terms and conditions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, including but not limited to any corporation or other entity with or into which GMC is merged or consolidated or any other successor of GMC. The Executive agrees that he will not and may not assign, transfer or convey, pledge or encumber this Agreement or his right, title or interest therein, or his power to execute the same or any monies due or to become due hereunder, this Agreement being intended to secure the personal services of the Executive, and GMC shall not recognize any such assignment, transfer, conveyance, pledge or encumbrance.
     16. Applicable Law. This agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof.
     17. Prior Agreements. This Agreement shall supersede any prior employment agreement between the Company and the Executive and shall be effective from the date specified hereinabove.
     18. Business Combinations. In the event of any sale, merger or any form of business combination affecting the Holding Company or GMC whatsoever, the Holding Company and GMC will obtain the express written assumption of this Agreement by the acquiring or surviving entity from such combination, and failure of the Holding Company and GMC to obtain such an assumption will constitute a breach of this Agreement, entitling the Executive to all payments and other benefits to be provided in the event of termination without cause provided in Section 9.3 hereof.
     19. Headings. The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the interpretation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     20. Invalidity or Unenforceability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such invalid or unenforceable term or provision (to the extent of the invalidity or unenforceability) had not been contained herein. If any court determines that any provision of Section 10 hereof is unenforceable because of the duration or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to reduce the scope or duration of such provision, as the case may be, and, in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable.
     21. Counterparts. This agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which for all purposes shall be deemed to be an original.
