Exhibit 10.1

FORM OF

AMENDED AND RESTATED

SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made and entered into by and between Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation, having an office at 801 Louisiana Street, Suite 700, Houston, Texas, 77002 (hereinafter referred to as “Company” and “Employer”), and                              (hereinafter referred to as “Employee”), is amended and restated effective as of                             (the “Effective Date”). This Agreement will continue in effect for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Effective Date. On the third anniversary of the Effective Date and on each subsequent anniversary thereafter, this Agreement may be renewed and extended for a period of 12 months by mutual agreement of the parties hereto.

Attendant to Employee’s continued employment by Employer, Employer and Employee hereby agree that, if Employee incurs a Qualifying Termination (as defined below), the Employer will pay Employee a cash lump sum payment equal to two times Employee’s then “current annual rate of total compensation” (as defined below). The cash payment shall be made within 90 days of Employee’s “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h), a “Separation from Service”), but not later than the March 15 following the taxable year of Employee’s Separation from Service, unless it is determined that at the time of his Separation from Service Employee is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (the “specified employee identification date” shall be December 31 and the “specified employee effective date” shall be April 1), in which event such lump sum payment shall instead be made (without interest) on the first business day that is six months after Employee’s Separation from Service (or on his death, if earlier). Also, through the second anniversary of the date of his Qualifying Termination, health and life insurance coverage under the Company plans or the equivalent thereof shall be provided to Employee on the same basis as it is provided to the other senior executives of the Company.

In addition, upon a Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to a Change of Control (as defined below), provided that Employee complies with the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants attached hereto as Exhibit A , (1) the portion of any unvested and unearned restricted stock (or restricted stock unit) awards vesting solely pursuant to the passage of time and continued services and granted pursuant to the Company’s Management Incentive Plan (or other equity compensation plan) (the “Restricted Stock”) held by Employee that would, but for Employee’s termination, vest during the Vesting Continuation Period (as defined below) will immediately vest on the date of the Qualifying Termination, and (2) any unearned performance awards to be settled in common stock of the Company, conditioned upon the achievement of performance targets and granted pursuant to the Company’s Management Incentive Plan (or other equity compensation plan) (the “Performance Shares”) held by Employee will (a) be prorated by multiplying the number of Performance Shares by a fraction (no greater than one) the numerator of which is the number of months in the period beginning on the date of grant of the Performance Shares and ending on last day of the Vesting Continuation Period and the denominator of which is the number of months in the performance period under the Performance Shares (with the remainder of the Performance Shares being immediately forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon Employee’s termination of employment) and (b) such reduced award will vest, if at all, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in each outstanding Performance Share

award utilizing a shortened performance period under the award ending on the date of the Qualifying Termination; provided, however, that the preceding sentence is not intended to modify the vesting provisions applicable to either the “Grant of Restricted Stock (Secondary Exit Award; UCC Warrant Exercise)” or the “Grant of Restricted Stock (Secondary Exit Award: 2L Note Conversion)” (together the “Emergence Awards”).

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, upon a Qualifying Termination that occurs on or within 18 months following a Change of Control, provided that Employee complies with the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants attached hereto as Exhibit A , any unvested and unearned Restricted Stock held by Employee will immediately vest in full on the date of the Qualifying Termination. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon a Change of Control, any unearned Performance Shares held by Employee will vest, if at all, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in each outstanding Performance Share award utilizing a shortened performance period under the award ending on the date of the Change of Control. Nothing contained in this paragraph is intended to modify the vesting provisions applicable to the Emergence Awards.

If Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason or no reason prior to the vesting of the Emergence Awards they will be automatically forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon such termination. In the event Employee violates any of the terms of the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants set forth on Exhibit A, Employee will automatically forfeit to the Company for no consideration all outstanding unvested equity and equity-based compensation awards related to the common stock of the Company. After giving effect to any accelerated or continued vesting pursuant to the two immediately preceding paragraphs, any outstanding unvested equity and equity-based compensation awards related to the common stock of the Company (which awards did not vest pursuant to the two immediately preceding paragraphs) will immediately be forfeited to the Company for no consideration.

In addition, and notwithstanding the terms of any outstanding agreements evidencing Restricted Stock or Performance Shares, (1) if Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason other than pursuant to a Qualifying Termination prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock or Performance Shares, the Restricted Stock and Performance Shares will be forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon such termination, and (2) Section 3(c) of all outstanding agreements evidencing Restricted Stock or Performance Shares is hereby deleted such that the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Company’s Management Incentive Plan) will not automatically result in accelerated vesting of the Employee’s Restricted Stock or Performance Shares or the shortening of the performance period under Employee’s Performance Shares. The parties agree that this paragraph is intended to amend Employee’s outstanding Restricted Stock and Performance Share agreements to modify, in the manner described herein, the provision of accelerated vesting with respect to Employee’s outstanding Restricted Stock and Performance Shares and that by signing this Agreement such additional agreements are amended without the need to execute any further documents.

As used in this Agreement, the following definitions shall apply:

1.    “Current annual rate of total compensation” means the sum of (i) Employee’s rate of annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control or subsequent termination of employment, whichever is greater, and (ii) the annual cash bonus last awarded to Employee immediately prior to the Change of Control or the most recent

2

annual cash bonus awarded to Employee, whichever is greater. In regards to cash bonuses received pursuant to item (ii) above, for purposes of this calculation, any special or one time cash bonuses shall be excluded. No other items of compensation shall be considered for this purpose.

2.    “Cause” means (i) any material failure of Employee, after written notice, to perform his duties as an officer of the Company; (ii) the commission of fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation by Employee against the Company; (iii) a material breach by Employee of his fiduciary duty owed by him to the Company or its affiliates, or of any written workplace policies applicable to him (including the Company’s code of conduct and policy on workplace harassment), whether adopted on or after the date of this Agreement; or the (iv) conviction of Employee of a felony offense or a crime involving moral turpitude.

3.    A “Change of Control” of the Company is deemed to have occurred if, at any time on or after the date hereof, (i) there is a sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (ii) the Company or its shareholders adopt a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; (iii) any person or group of persons acting in concert becomes the beneficial owner of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power of the Company’s securities generally entitled to vote in the election of directors; or (iv) there occurs a merger or consolidation of the Company unless, for at least six months after the transaction, beneficially own greater than fifty (50%) of the total voting power of all securities generally entitled to vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees of the surviving entity.

4.    “Change in Duties” shall mean the occurrence, on or within 18 months after the date upon which a Change of Control occurs, of any one or more of the following: (i) a reduction in the duties or responsibilities of Employee from those applicable to him immediately prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs; (ii) a reduction in Employee’s current annual rate of total compensation; or (iii) a change in the location of Employee’s principal place of employment by more than 50 miles from the location where he was principally employed immediately prior to the date on which the Change of Control occurs, unless such relocation is agreed to in writing by Employee; provided, however, that a relocation scheduled prior to the date of the Change of Control shall not constitute a Change in Duties. Employee must provide written notice to the Company of any alleged Change in Duties within 60 days of such change and the Company shall have a period of 30 days in which it may remedy the condition. In the event it is remedied by the Company within such “cure” period, such event shall cease to be a Change in Duties for purposes of this Agreement. In the event it is not timely remedied by the Company, Employee may terminate his employment due to a Change in Duties at any time during the 30 day period following the end of the “cure” period.

5.    “Qualifying Termination” shall mean the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company either by the Company without “Cause,” whether before or after a Change of Control, or by Employee due to a Change in Duties on or within 18 months following a Change of Control.

6.    “Vesting Continuation Period” shall mean, as applicable, (i) if Employee experiences a Qualifying Termination on or before December 31, 2018, the period beginning on the date of the Qualifying Termination and ending on December 31, 2019 or (ii) if Employee experiences a Qualifying Termination after December 31, 2018, the period beginning on the date of the Qualifying Termination and ending on the date that is 12 months following the date of the Qualifying Termination.

3

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors, legal representatives and assigns, and upon Employee, his heirs, executors, administrators, representatives and assigns; provided, however, Employee agrees that his rights and obligations hereunder are personal to him and may not be assigned without the express written consent of the Company.

This Agreement replaces and merges all previous agreements and discussions relating to the same or similar subject matters between Employee and the Company and constitutes the entire agreement between Employee and the Company with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the Amended and Restated Severance Agreement entered into effective as of November 5, 2007 and outstanding equity based compensation awards). This Agreement may not be modified or amended other than through a written agreement executed by Employee and an officer of the Company who is expressly authorized by the Company to execute such document.

If any provision of this Agreement or application thereof to anyone or under any circumstances shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions or applications of this Agreement that can be given effect without the invalid or unenforceable provision or application.

Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the breach thereof, Employee’s employment with the Company, or the termination thereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. To select an arbitrator, each party shall strike a name from the list submitted by AAA with the grieving party striking first. The arbitrator shall not have the power to add to or ignore any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. His decision shall not go beyond what is necessary for the interpretation and application if this Agreement and obligations of the parties under this Agreement. Cost of such arbitration, but not attorney’s fees, will be paid by the losing party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, Employee agrees that the Company would be damaged irreparably and would have no adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the terms of Exhibit A are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Company shall be entitled to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the covenants set forth in Exhibit A by Employee and to specifically enforce Exhibit A, this being in addition to any other remedies to which the Company is entitled at law and in equity, without proof of actual damages or any obligation to post any bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. Employee agrees not to dispute or resist any such application for relief on the basis that the Company has an adequate remedy at law or that damage arising from such non-performance or breach is not irreparable.

The laws of the State of Texas will govern the interpretation, validity and effect of this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which shall constitute the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF , the undersigned intending to be legally bound, have executed this Agreement on                     , effective as of the date provided above.

SEVERANCE BENEFITS

2.1     Post Change of Control Severance Payments . Subject to the further provisions of (i) this Article II, including Section 2.3, and (ii) Sections 4.10 and 4.12, if a Covered Executive incurs an Involuntary Termination on or within 18 months following a Change of Control, then, as soon as practical following his Release becoming irrevocable, but not later than 10 days after such date, such Covered Executive shall be entitled to the following severance benefits:

(a)    a lump sum cash payment equal to (i) if the Covered Executive is an Executive Officer or a senior vice president of an Employer, two times the sum of his Annual

-4-

Base Salary and Bonus Amount, or (ii) if the Covered Executive is a vice president of an Employer but is not an Executive Officer, the sum of his Annual Base Salary and Bonus Amount;

(b)    if, following his Involuntary Termination, the Covered Executive timely elects COBRA continuation coverage for the Covered Executive and, where applicable, his eligible dependents, his monthly premium for such COBRA coverage, for up to 18 months (or, in the case of a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer, 24 months), shall be equal to the active employee monthly premium charged for similar Health Benefit Coverage (the “Subsidized COBRA Coverage”). However, if such Subsidized COBRA Coverage for the Covered Executive would result in his coverage, or the benefits received under the health benefit plan, being taxable to the Covered Executive, the Employer shall take all actions necessary to make the Covered Executive “whole” on an after-tax basis for any such adverse tax consequences. If at any time on or after the Covered Executive’s Involuntary Termination any health benefit plan in which he is continuing his coverage pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) either is terminated or ceases to provide coverage to him or his covered beneficiaries for any reason, other than as provided below, prior to the end of the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage, then the Employer shall pay the Covered Executive timely an amount of cash necessary for the Covered Executive to obtain for the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage then remaining substitute coverage that is substantially equivalent to the coverage that was provided to the Covered Executive before such termination, plus, if applicable, a gross-up payment to reflect the loss of any tax benefits associated with his “loss” of employer-provided health plan coverage benefit(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage shall immediately terminate upon the Covered Executive’s obtainment of new employment and his eligibility for group health plan coverage from his new employer (with the Covered Executive being obligated hereunder to promptly report such eligibility to the Employer); and

(c)    a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (i) his earned, but unpaid, annual base salary up to the date of his Involuntary Termination and (ii) any accrued, but untaken, vacation time or paid-time off.

2.2     Pre-Change of Control Severance Payments . Subject to the further provisions of (i) this Article II, including Section 2.3, and (ii) Sections 4.10 and 4.12, if a Covered Executive incurs an Involuntary Termination prior to a Change of Control, then, as soon as practical following his Release becoming irrevocable, but not later than 10 days after such date, such Covered Executive shall be entitled to the following severance benefits:

(a)    a lump sum cash payment equal to (i) if the Covered Executive is an Executive Officer or a senior vice president of an Employer, two times the sum of his Annual Base Salary and Bonus Amount, or (ii) if the Covered Executive is a vice president of an Employer but is not an Executive Officer, 50% of the sum of his Annual Base Salary and Target Bonus Amount;

(b)    if, following his Involuntary Termination, the Covered Executive timely elects COBRA continuation coverage for the Covered Executive and, where applicable, his eligible dependents, his monthly premium for such COBRA coverage, for up to six months (or, in the case of a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer, 24 months), shall be equal to the

-5-

Subsidized COBRA Coverage. However, if such Subsidized COBRA Coverage for the Covered Executive would result in his coverage, or the benefits received under the health benefit plan, being taxable to the Covered Executive, the Employer shall take all actions necessary to make the Covered Executive “whole” on an after-tax basis for any such adverse tax consequences. If at any time on or after the Covered Executive’s Involuntary Termination any health benefit plan in which he is continuing his coverage pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) either is terminated or ceases to provide coverage to him or his covered beneficiaries for any reason, other than as provided below, prior to the end of the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage, then the Employer shall pay the Covered Executive timely an amount of cash necessary for the Covered Executive to obtain for the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage then remaining substitute coverage that is substantially equivalent to the coverage that was provided to the Covered Executive before such termination, plus, if applicable, a gross-up payment to reflect the loss of any tax benefits associated with his “loss” of employer-provided health plan coverage benefit(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the period of Subsidized COBRA Coverage shall immediately terminate upon the Covered Executive’s obtainment of new employment and his eligibility for group health plan coverage from his new employer (with the Covered Executive being obligated hereunder to promptly report such eligibility to the Employer); and

(c)    a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (i) his earned, but unpaid, annual base salary up to the date of his Involuntary Termination and (ii) any accrued, but untaken, vacation time or paid-time off.

2.3     Treatment of Equity Awards .

(a)    Subject to (i) the further provisions of this Article II, including Section 2.3, and (ii) compliance with the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants attached hereto as Exhibit A , if a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer incurs an Involuntary Termination prior to a Change of Control, (A) the portion of any unvested and unearned restricted stock (or restricted stock unit) awards held by the Covered Executive vesting solely pursuant to the passage of time and continued services and granted pursuant to the Company’s Management Incentive Plan (or other equity compensation plan) (the “ Restricted Stock ”) that would, but for the Covered Executive’s termination, vest during the Vesting Continuation Period will immediately vest on the date of the Involuntary Termination, and (B) any unearned performance awards held by the Covered Executive to be settled in common stock of the Company, conditioned upon the achievement of performance targets and granted pursuant to the Company’s Management Incentive Plan (or other equity compensation plan) (the “ Performance Shares ”) will (1) be prorated by multiplying the number of Performance Shares by a fraction (no greater than one) the numerator of which is the number of months in the period beginning on the date of grant of the Performance Shares and ending on last day of the Vesting Continuation Period and the denominator of which is the number of months in the performance period under the Performance Shares (with the remainder of the Performance Shares being immediately forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon the Covered Executive’s termination of employment) and (2) such reduced award will vest, if at all, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in each outstanding Performance Share award utilizing a shortened performance period under the award ending on the date of the Involuntary Termination; provided, however, that the preceding sentence is not intended to modify the vesting provisions applicable to either the “Grant of Restricted Stock (Secondary Exit Award; UCC Warrant Exercise)” or the “Grant of Restricted Stock (Secondary Exit Award: 2L Note Conversion)” (together the “ Emergence Awards ”).

(b)    Notwithstanding Section 2.3(a), subject to (i) the further provisions of this Article II, including Section 2.3, and (ii) compliance with the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants attached hereto as Exhibit A , if a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer incurs an Involuntary Termination on or within 18 months following a Change of Control, any unvested and unearned Restricted Stock held by the Covered Executive will immediately vest in full. Nothing contained in this Section 2.3(b) is intended to modify the vesting provisions applicable to the Emergence Awards.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon a Change of Control, any unearned Performance Shares held by a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer will immediately vest, if at all, based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in each outstanding Performance Share award utilizing a shortened performance period under the award ending on the date of the Change of Control. Nothing contained in this Section 2.3(c) is intended to modify the vesting provisions applicable to the Emergence Awards.

(d)    If the employment of a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer is terminated for any reason or no reason prior to the vesting of the Emergence Awards they will be automatically forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon such termination. In the event a Covered Executive violates any of the terms of the non-competition and non-solicitation covenants set forth on Exhibit A, the Covered Executive will automatically forfeit to the Company for no consideration all outstanding unvested equity and equity-based compensation awards related to the common stock of the Company. After giving effect to any accelerated or continued vesting pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, any outstanding unvested equity and equity-based compensation awards related to the common stock of the Company (which awards did not vest pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3) will immediately be forfeited to the Company for no consideration.

(e)    Notwithstanding the terms of any outstanding agreements evidencing Restricted Stock or Performance Shares, (1) if the employment of a Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer is terminated for any reason other than pursuant to a Involuntary Termination prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock or Performance Shares, the Restricted Stock and Performance Shares will be forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon such termination, and (2) Section 3(c) of all outstanding agreements evidencing Restricted Stock or Performance Shares is hereby deleted such that the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Company’s Management Incentive Plan) will not automatically result in accelerated vesting of the Covered Executive’s Restricted Stock or Performance Shares or the shortening of the performance period under the Covered Executive’s Performance Shares. This Section 2.3 is intended to amend the outstanding Restricted Stock and Performance Share agreements for each Covered Executive who is an Executive Officer to modify, in the manner described in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, the provision of accelerated vesting with respect to the Covered Executive’s outstanding Restricted Stock and Performance Shares and such additional agreements are hereby deemed amended without the need to execute any further documents.

2.4     Release and Full Settlement . Anything in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, as a pre-condition to the receipt of any severance payments or benefits under Sections 2.1(a) and (b), Sections 2.2(a) and (b), Section 2.3(a) or Section 2.3(b) above, whichever is applicable, a Covered Executive whose employment has been subject to an Involuntary Termination must execute a Release, in substantially the form attached hereto as Attachment A, releasing the Board, the Committee, the Plan’s fiduciaries and administrators, the Employers, the Company and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, shareholders, partners, officers, directors, executives and agents (the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims and causes of action of any kind or character, including, but not limited to, all claims or causes of action arising out of such Covered Executive’s employment with any of the Released Parties or the termination of such employment and deemed amendment of the outstanding Restricted Stock and Performance Share agreements as described in Section 2.3, but excluding (i) all vested benefits the Covered Executive may have under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Employer or an affiliate that is subject to ERISA and (ii) any payments and benefits to which he is entitled to receive under this Plan as a result of the Release becoming irrevocable. The Employer’s performance of its obligations hereunder and the receipt of the benefits provided hereunder by such Covered Executive shall constitute full settlement of all such released claims and causes of action. To be entitled to receive benefits pursuant to Sections 2.1(a) and (b), Sections 2.2(a) and (b), Section 2.3(a) or Section 2.3(b), as applicable, such Release (i) must be executed by the Covered Executive not later than 45 days following the date the Release is provided to the Covered Executive, which must be within five days following his Involuntary Termination, and (ii) must have become irrevocable.

2.5     No Mitigation . A Covered Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Article II by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Article II be reduced by any compensation or benefit earned by the Covered Executive as the result of employment by another employer, except as provided in Section 2.1(b) or Section 2.2(b) with respect to his eligibility for coverage under a new employer’s group health plan. Subject to the foregoing, the benefits under the Plan are in addition to any other benefits to which a Covered Executive is otherwise entitled.

2.6     Severance Pay Plan Limitation . This Plan is intended to be an employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of section 3(1) of ERISA and the Department of Labor regulations promulgated thereunder. Therefore, anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall any Covered Executive receive total severance payments hereunder that exceed the equivalent of twice such Covered Executive’s “annual compensation” (as such term is defined in 29 CFR § 2510.3-2(b)(2)) during the year immediately preceding his Involuntary Termination. If total severance payments made hereunder to a Covered Executive would otherwise exceed the limitation in the preceding sentence, the amount payable to such Covered Executive shall be reduced as necessary to satisfy such limitation.

3.5     Claims Procedure . Any Covered Executive that the Committee determines is entitled to a benefit under the Plan is not required to file a claim for benefits. Any Covered Executive who is not paid a benefit and who believes that he is entitled to a benefit or who has been paid a benefit and who believes that he is entitled to a greater benefit may file a claim for benefits under the Plan in writing with the Committee. In any case in which a claim for Plan benefits by a Covered Executive is denied or modified, the Committee shall furnish written notice to the claimant within 90 days after receipt of such claim for Plan benefits (or within 180 days if additional information requested by the Committee necessitates an extension of the 90-day period and the claimant is informed of such extension in writing within the original 90-day period), which notice shall:

(a)    state the specific reason or reasons for the denial or modification;

(b)    provide specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial or modification is based;

In connection with such request, the Covered Executive or his representative may review any pertinent documents upon which such denial or modification was based and may submit issues and comments in writing.

If special circumstances require an extension of such 60-day period, the Committee’s decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than 120 days after receipt of the request for review. If an extension of time for review is required, written notice of the extension shall be furnished to the Covered Executive and his representative, if any, prior to the commencement of the extension period. Any legal action with respect to a claim for

IV.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

4.1     Funding . The benefits provided herein shall be unfunded and shall be provided from the Employer’s general assets.

4.2     Cost of Plan . Except as provided in Section 2.1(b) and Section 2.2(b) with respect to the active employee monthly premium charged for Health Benefit Coverages, the entire cost of the Plan shall be borne by the Employer and no contributions shall be required of the Covered Executives.

4.3     Plan Year . The Plan shall operate on a calendar year basis.

4.4     Participating Employers . GPC LLC shall be an Employer. The Committee may designate any other affiliate of GPC LLC eligible by law to participate in this Plan as also being an Employer by written instrument delivered to the Secretary of the Company and the other designated Employer. Such written instrument shall specify the effective date of such designated participation, may incorporate specific provisions relating to the operation of the Plan which apply to the designated Employer only and shall become, as to such designated Employer and its executives, a part of the Plan. Each designated Employer shall be conclusively presumed to have consented to its designation and to have agreed to be bound by the terms of the Plan and any and all amendments thereto upon its submission of information to the Committee required by the terms of or with respect to the Plan; provided, however, that the terms of the Plan may be modified so as to increase the obligations of an Employer only with the written consent of such Employer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a Covered Executive’s employment is transferred to an affiliate of the Employer that has not been designated an “Employer” under the Plan, for purposes of this Plan, during the six-month period following such transfer such affiliate shall be deemed to be an Employer for all purposes with respect to such transferred Covered Executive.

4.5     Amendment and Termination . The term of the Plan, as amended and restated hereby, shall continue through the third anniversary of the Effective Date, and automatically shall then terminate unless the Board takes action prior to such third anniversary of the Effective Date to provide that the term of the Plan shall be extended. Subject to the following paragraph, the Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment or termination may adversely affect the rights of a Covered Executive who has incurred an Involuntary Termination prior to such amendment or termination of the Plan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change of Control occurs during the term of the Plan, the Plan may not be terminated or amended on or within 18 months following the Change of Control to adversely affect the participation and rights (contingent or otherwise) under the Plan of any individual who is a Covered Executive immediately prior to such Change of Control. For

-11-

purposes of this Section 4.5, on and following a Change of Control a revocation of the designation of an affiliate, GPC LLC or the Company as an Employer, or a transfer of a Covered Executive’s employment to an entity that is not designated an Employer, shall be deemed to be an adverse amendment to the Plan with respect to each affected Covered Executive. The Employer’s obligation to make all payments and provide all benefits that become (or have become) payable as a result of an Involuntary Termination that occurs during such 18-month period following the Change of Control (or which occurred prior to the Change of Control) shall survive any termination of the Plan.

4.6     Not Contract of Employment . The adoption and maintenance of the Plan shall not be deemed to be a contract of employment between the Employer and any person or to be consideration for the employment of any person. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to give any person the right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or to restrict the right of the Employer to discharge any person at any time nor shall the Plan be deemed to give the Employer the right to require any person to remain in the employ of the Employer or to restrict any person’s right to terminate his employment at any time.

4.7     Severability . Any provision in the Plan that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction by reason of applicable law shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

4.8     Nonalienation . Covered Executives shall not have any right to pledge, hypothecate, anticipate or assign benefits or rights under the Plan, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

4.9     Effect of Plan . Except with respect to any individual written employment or severance agreements between a Covered Executive and an Employer, the Company or an affiliate, this Plan supersedes all prior oral or written policies, plans or arrangements of the Employer or the Company covering or applying to, and all prior oral or written communications to, Covered Executives with respect to the subject matter hereof, and all such prior policies, plans or arrangements and communications are hereby null and void and of no further force and effect other than any outstanding agreements evidencing Restricted Stock or Performance Shares (which are hereby deemed amended as described herein). Further, this Plan shall be binding upon the Employer and any successor of the Employer, by merger or otherwise, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Covered Executives.

4.10     Taxes . The Employer or its successor may withhold from any amounts payable to a Covered Executive under the Plan all taxes it is required to withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

4.11     Governing Law . The Plan shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to conflict of laws principles, except to the extent preempted by federal law.

-12-

4.12     Section 409A Compliance .

(a)    Notwithstanding anything in Sections 2.1 or 2.2 to the contrary concerning the time of payment of any severance benefit, if the Covered Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i), as of his Involuntary Termination, then to the extent any amount payable under the Plan to such Covered Executive upon or as a result of his “separation from service” under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 would be subject to the additional tax provided by Section 409A of the Code, such amount shall not be paid to the Covered Executive until the date that is six months after the date of his Involuntary Termination (or, if earlier than the end of the six-month period, his date of death). Such payment shall be made in a lump sum on such delayed payment date and shall bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the date payment was otherwise to be made under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 and the date the delayed amount is actually paid.

(b)    To the extent permitted under Section 409A and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, each payment to a Covered Executive under the Plan shall be treated as a “separate payment.”

(c)    The Plan shall be construed to comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable, and, in this regard, a “termination of employment” shall mean, and must be, a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
