Dear Amy:
Offer and Position: We are pleased to extend an offer of full-time employment as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) for Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. (“Aerojet Rocketdyne”). This offer of employment is conditioned on your satisfactory completion of certain requirements, as more fully explained in this letter, and is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this letter.
Duties: In your role as COO, you will report to Eileen Drake, CEO and President. Your unique skills and experience will be an asset to Aerojet Rocketdyne, and we believe that our Company offers you a challenging and rewarding opportunity. You agree to devote your full business time, attention and best efforts to the performance of your duties and to the furtherance of the Company's interests.
Location: Your principal place of employment will be at the corporate headquarters located in our El Segundo office, subject to business travel as needed to properly fulfil your employment duties and responsibilities.
Start Date: Subject to the satisfaction of all of the conditions described in this letter, your start date is tentatively scheduled for May 4, 2020.
Base Salary: Your starting salary will be $475,000.00, annualized, which will be paid bi-weekly in accordance with the standard payroll practices of the Company and subject to all withholdings and deductions as required by law. This position is classified as Exempt.
Variable Compensation Eligibility – Short Term and Long Term Plans: As part of your annual total cash compensation, you will be eligible to participate in the Aerojet Rocketdyne Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP). Your target annual incentive is 75% of your base salary. Incentive plan payments are contingent upon the financial performance of Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings Inc. and Aerojet Rocketdyne, Inc., and your incentive may vary above or below the target level. For fiscal year 2020, you will be eligible for a full year STIP bonus payout. Your eligibility to participate in the program is at the discretion of management. Aerojet Rocketdyne may modify, change or cancel any part of the STIP, and may adjust any individual payment during the performance period or at any time prior to the payment date.
You will also be eligible to participate in Aerojet Rocketdyne’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) under the 2020 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan as approved by the Board of Directors. Long term incentive grants are normally made during Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings Inc.’s first fiscal quarter. Your long-term incentive target is 200% of your base salary.

One-Time Equity Sign-on Grant
You will be granted restricted stock units representing shares of Aerojet Rocketdyne common stock with a grant value of approximately $700,000.00 effective as of the date of your employment begins (the “grant date”). This equity grant will vest ratably in tranches of one-half on the anniversary of the grant date over two years.
Relocation: To assist you with your relocation to the El Segundo, CA area, we are offering you the benefits outlined in the enclosed relocation summary. Following your written acceptance of our offer, a Delta Mobility representative will contact you to initiate your move.
This payment associated with relocation shall be repaid to Aerojet Rocketdyne should you resign or be terminated for cause within eighteen (18) months of your start date. In addition, Aerojet Rocketdyne is required to withhold federal, state, FICA and SDI taxes on relocation payments.
Benefits and Vacation: You will be eligible to participate in the employee benefits plans and programs generally available to the Company's employees, including group medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and short and long term disability benefits, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs. You will accrue paid vacation time at the rate of four weeks (160 hours) per year.
Severance Eligibility with Change in Control: Although your employment is considered at-will, the Company maintains a Change in Control Severance Policy for certain designated executive officers in connection with a change in control as defined in the Policy. You will be designated as an Eligible Officer and therefore will be eligible as set forth in the Executive Change in Control Severance Policy under the same terms currently in effect for other executive officers of the Company. A copy of the Change in Control Severance Policy has been enclosed for your reference.
Representations: By accepting this offer, you represent that you are able to accept this job and carry out the work that it would involve without breaching any legal restrictions on your activities, such as non-competition, non-solicitation or other work-related restrictions imposed by a current or former employer. You also represent that you will inform the Company about any such restrictions and provide the Company with as much information about them as possible, including any agreements between you and your current or former employer describing such restrictions on your activities. You further confirm that you will not remove or take any documents or proprietary data or materials of any kind, electronic or otherwise, with you from your current or former employer to the Company without written authorization from your current or former employer, nor will you use or disclose any such confidential information during the course and scope of your employment with the Company. If you have any questions about the ownership of particular documents or other information, you should discuss such questions with your former employer before removing or copying the documents or information.
At-Will Employment: As an employee of Aerojet Rocketdyne, it is necessary that you agree to conform to the rules and regulations of the Company. We also require you to acknowledge, by signing in the space provided below, that your employment with Aerojet Rocketdyne is at-will. This means your employment can be terminated, with or without cause, and with or without notice, at any time, at your option or at Aerojet Rocketdyne’s option. Although other terms and conditions of employment may change, this at-will employment will remain in effect throughout your employment with the Company, unless it is modified by an express written employment contract for a specified term which is signed by you and an officer of Aerojet Rocketdyne. Your signature further indicates that you agree that this letter incorporates all of the elements of our employment offer, and no agreement which is contrary to any of the matters stated in this offer letter shall be effective unless it is contained in a specific, express written contract which is signed by an authorized officer of the Company and you.

Other Offer Terms and Conditions: Aerojet Rocketdyne reserves the right to revoke this offer at any time before employment begins.

Our offer is also contingent upon your completing, signing and returning all of the enclosed documents. A checklist and a return envelope are included for your convenience.

Aerojet Rocketdyne is required by Federal law to verify all new employees’ legal right to work in the United States. Our offer is conditioned upon your providing this proof. It is not necessary to provide proof now, but you must provide proof of your legal right to work in the United States on your first day of work.
