WHEREAS, the Company and Mr. Boots, are party to that certain Chairman Services Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2012 (the “Original Agreement”), pursuant to which Mr. Boots serves as the non-employee chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).

WHEREAS, Mr. Boots and the Company now desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety pursuant to the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of such service and the mutual covenants and promises herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Mr. Boots agree as follows:

1. Service and Duties. The Company and Chairman agree that Chairman shall serve as a director and the non-employee chairman of the Board, upon the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, until terminated by either party in accordance with this Agreement. Chairman shall commit such time as reasonably necessary to fulfill his obligations as non-employee chairman of the Board. Chairman acknowledges that he is not an employee of the Company in any respect, including within the meaning of all federal, state and local laws and regulations governing employment relationships.

Chairman shall have such duties, authorities and responsibilities as are consistent with such position, including, without limitation:

If requested, Chairman shall also (i) serve as a member of the board of directors of any of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates and (ii) serve as a member of committees (including, without limitation, audit or compensation committees) of the Company’s subsidiaries or affiliates, without additional compensation, provided that such additional service shall not require Chairman to exceed the time commitment specified in this Section 1 or otherwise agreed between Chairman and the Company.

The Company shall maintain directors and officers liability insurance for the benefit of Chairman during the term of this Agreement and for the period of any liability thereafter with liability coverage that is no less favorable than the liability coverage provided to any other director or any officer of Company. Chairman will also be the beneficiary of indemnification for his service as a director as provided in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, and that certain Indemnification Agreement, dated as of August 27, 2012, by and among Chairman, the Company and the Guarantors (as defined therein).

The Cash Director Fee shall be paid by the Company, in advance, in equal quarterly installments on the first business day of each quarter.

3.2 Annual Equity Award. Chairman shall be entitled to receive an annual equity award (the “Annual Equity Award”) consisting of that number of shares of restricted common stock units (“RSUs”) having an aggregate value on the date of grant of $250,000 (based on the Measurement Date Price (as defined below)), which will have a per unit value equal to the Measurement Date Price. The grant of the Annual Equity Award will be made each year on a date that is two business days after the public disclosure of the Company’s financial results for the previous fiscal year (such date, the “Measurement Date”), and that date is subject to any modification by the Board of the Company’s policy regarding compensation for non-management members of the Board, as in effect from time to time. The “Measurement Date Price” will be equal to the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the Measurement Date. The Annual Equity Award will be granted pursuant and subject to the Milacron Holdings Corp. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and the RSUs granted in connection therewith will vest in full on the one year anniversary of the date of grant as long as Chairman is serving as non-employee chairman of the Board pursuant and subject to the terms of Chairman’s award agreement related to the grant.
