THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, dated as of August 20, 2013, is entered into between Colt Defense LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Colt”), and Dennis Veilleux (“Executive”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, Colt and Executive hereby agree as follows:

1.                                      Employment. Colt shall employ Executive upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Employment Agreement, for the period beginning on the date hereof and ending as provided in Paragraph 5 (the “Employment Period”).

2.                                      Position, Duties and Location.

(a)                           Position. During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Colt and, in such capacity, shall report to the Governing Board of Colt or its designee, subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Colt Defense LLC, dated as of June 12, 2003, reflecting the amendments adopted as of June 28, 2013, or any subsequently adopted Colt limited liability company agreement (the “Limited Liability Company Agreement”).  Executive shall be eligible for election to the Governing Board as of the next Governing Board meeting following Executive’s employment, which will take place no later than October 31, 2013.

(b)                           Duties.  During the Employment Period, Executive shall faithfully and diligently devote all of his business time and attention (except for permitted vacation periods and periods of illness or incapacity) to the business and affairs of Colt.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may, subject to the approval of the Governing Board or its designee engage in civic and charitable activities for which Executive receives no compensation or other pecuniary advantage, including serving on the board, a committee or similar body of a charitable or community based organization; provided, that such activities do not interfere with the fulfillment of his obligations hereunder.  Executive shall perform his duties in compliance with applicable law, the policies of Colt, the directions received from the Governing Board or its designee, and this Employment Agreement.

(c)                            Location.  Colt’s headquarters currently are located in West Hartford, Connecticut.  Executive agrees to, other than for normal personal and business travel, work at Colt’s headquarters in West Hartford, Connecticut and in any other city in which the headquarters may subsequently be located.

3.                                      Base Salary and Benefits.

(a)                           Base Salary.  Executive’s Base Salary shall be $400,000 per calendar year (the “Base Salary”), paid in regular installments in accordance with Colt’s payroll practices.

(b)                           Expenses.  Colt shall reimburse Executive for reasonable business expenses in accordance with Colt’s policies.  Executive shall comply with limitations and reporting

requirements with respect to expenses as may be established by Colt from time to time and communicated to Executive.

(c)                            Other Benefits.  Executive will be entitled to participate in compensation or employee benefit plans and programs for which senior executives of Colt generally are eligible.  Nothing in this Employment Agreement will preclude Colt from amending or terminating any of the plans or programs applicable to senior executives as long as such amendment or termination is applicable to all senior executives.  In addition, Executive will be eligible to take four weeks’ paid vacation annually.

(d)                           Taxes.  All compensation payable to Executive hereunder shall be subject to all applicable withholding taxes, normal payroll withholding and any other lawful deductions.

(e)                            Performance Bonus.  In addition to the Base Salary, Executive will be eligible for a performance bonus equal to up to 50.0% of Executive’s Base Salary based on meeting to be determined financial performance targets as agreed with the Governing Board.  Within 30 days from the date hereof, Executive shall deliver to the Governing Board a business plan, including an initial proposed budget for fiscal 2013 through 2015 (the “Business Plan”).  In the event of the termination or notice of termination of Executive’s employment, during the performance period, regardless of the reason therefor, and regardless of which party initiated the termination, or the Executive’s termination for Cause, as defined in Paragraph 5, below, before the date on which the bonus would have been paid, Executive will have no right to receive any bonus (full or pro rata) that otherwise might have been paid following the date of termination or notice of termination.

4.                                      Equity Participation.  Executive will receive options to purchase 4,000 Class B Common Units of Colt at an exercise price equal to $288.78 per Class B Common Unit, subject to the provisions of Colt’s Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) (a copy of which has been made available to Executive) within 60 days from the date hereof.  The intention of the parties is that the schedule for the vesting, exercise and payments under such options shall be modified if any as necessary to avoid adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code. The options shall vest as follows:

(a)                           16.66% of the options will vest on the third anniversary date of this Employment Agreement; provided, that Executive is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Colt at such time.

(b)                           The vesting of the remaining options granted hereunder will depend on Colt’s performance against budgeted financial or other metrics as established by Colt’s Governing Board for each fiscal year from 2013 through 2015 (in consultation with Executive and based on the Business Plan).  On the 60th day following delivery of consolidated audited financial statements of Colt with respect to the following fiscal years: (i) 2013, 16.66% of the options granted hereunder will vest; (ii) 2014, 33.33% of the options granted hereunder will vest; and (iii) 2015, 33.33% of the options granted hereunder will vest, in each case upon satisfying such budgeted financial or other metrics.

(c)                            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Employment Agreement, in the event of the termination or notice of termination of Executive’s employment, regardless of the

reason therefor, and regardless of which party initiated the termination, all unvested options are forfeited.

5.                                      Termination.  Executive’s employment hereunder is “at will” and therefore may be terminated by either Colt or Executive, at any time and for any reason upon written notice to the other.  In the event Colt terminates Executive’s employment other than for “Cause,” Colt will pay Severance Benefits (as defined below) to the Executive commencing thirty days after such employment termination; provided, however, payment of Severance Benefits shall be subject to delivery of an executed Agreement and General Release in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (with such change therein or additions thereto as needed under then applicable law to give effect to its intent and purposes) within twenty-one days of presentation thereof by the Company to Executive (which presentation by the Company shall be made no later than two business days following the date of such employment termination), which is not subsequently revoked.  The “Severance Benefits” shall be comprised of (i) a lump sum payment equal to one-twelfth of Executive’s then current Base Salary on the 30th day following such employment termination, and (ii) continued payments, made in accordance with Colt’s schedule for the payment of its employee’s salaries, of Base Salary for eleven months.  For avoidance of doubt, the total amount of Severance Benefits under this Section 5 shall equal one year of Base Salary at the amount in effect upon employment termination.  Each payment to be provided under this Section 5 shall be treated as and considered a separate and distinct payment for purposes of determining eligibility for exemptions to Section 409A.  If, at any time during Executive’s employment, Colt materially breaches this Employment Agreement and does not cure such breach within 60 days after Colt’s receipt of written notice thereof in reasonable detail from Executive, Executive may resign and will be treated as if he had been terminated by Colt without Cause.  Executive shall provide notice of any such termination within 30 days following the initial instance of such breach, and the Executive’s notice of termination shall specific a date of termination that is no later than 60 days following the date of notice. “Cause” shall mean:

(a)                           A determination that any of the Executive’s representations set forth in Paragraph 8, below, was materially false as of the date of this Employment Agreement;

(b)                           Executive’s commission of a felony or of any other crime involving moral turpitude, or Executive’s arrest for any crime, which arrest or the publicity surrounding same could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Colt’s business;

(c)                            Executive’s commission of an act of fraud, embezzlement or theft with respect to Colt;

(d)                           The refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any lawful directives of Colt in the performance of his services or the violation by Executive of any of the written policies or procedures of Colt (other than on the advice of Colt’s legal counsel), or any other act or omission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct; or

(e)                            The breach, non-performance or non-observance by Executive of any term of this Employment Agreement, which failure or breach continues for a period of at least five days following a written demand for such performance by Colt specifying in reasonable detail the action Colt alleges to be a failure to perform or breach by the Executive.

6.                                      Section 409A.

(a)                                 This Employment Agreement is intended to constitute an enforceable contract for the payment of compensation, severance and certain other benefits.  The intention of the parties is that each payment provided for under this Employment Agreement, including the Severance Benefits, shall be exempt from Section 409A.  In the event a determination is made that a payment under this Employment Agreement is “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Executive consents to Colt adopting such conforming amendments as Colt deems necessary after consultation with Executive to comply with Section 409A of the Code, without reducing the amounts of any benefits due to the Executive hereunder.

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subparagraph 6(a), in the event that upon Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) Section 409A, Executive is then a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, as determined in accordance with the Section 409A methodology in place or established by Colt as in effect on the date of termination of employment with Colt (a “Specified Employee”), then solely to the extent necessary to comply with Code Section 409A and avoid the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A, Colt shall defer payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation,” subject to Code Section 409A, which is payable to the Executive under this Employment Agreement as a result of (and would otherwise be paid within six months following) such separation from service, shall instead be paid to the Executive on the Delayed Payment Date. The “Delayed Payment Date” shall, for purposes of this Employment Agreement, mean the earlier of the first business day of the seventh month after Executive’s separation from service, or the date of the Executive’s death; upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to the Executive.  All other payments that are not deferred in accordance with the preceding sentence shall be paid on the dates, or according to the schedule, provided for herein.  To the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, the date of termination of employment with Colt must also represent a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

7.                                      Colt Property and Restrictive Covenants.  On the date hereof, Executive will execute and comply with the document attached hereto as Exhibit B in consideration for his employment by Colt.

8.                                      Representations of Executive.  Executive hereby represents and warrants to Colt that the following statements are true as of the date of this Employment Agreement:

(d)                                 Employment Restrictions.  Executive is not subject to any non- competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality or other work-related agreement that limits or restricts Executive’s ability to provide services hereunder, and there is no such agreement that would be violated by this Employment Agreement.

CONFIDENTIALITY, ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS, NON-SOLICITATION

AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

THIS CONFIDENTIALITY, ASSIGNMENT OF INVENTIONS, NON-SOLICITATION AND NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of August 20, 2013, is entered into between Colt Defense LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Colt”), and Dennis Veilleux (“Executive”).

Whereas, Colt has unique methods for manufacturing products; for locating and dealing with factories and other vendors; for training, and providing incentives for, its employees; and for marketing, selling and distributing its products;

Whereas, Colt has made unique plans for the future, including, without limitation plans for its products, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, selling and distributing its products;

Whereas, Colt has established near permanent relationships with its customers;

Whereas, Colt’s unique methods of doing business and its near permanent relationships with its customers give it a competitive advantage over companies that have not adopted those or other comparably effective methods of doing business, and which have not otherwise been as successful as Colt in developing their businesses;

Whereas, as a result of Executive’s employment by Colt, Executive will acquire detailed knowledge of, and experience in, Colt’s unique methods of doing business and its plans for the future, as described above;

Whereas, it would be unfair for Executive to use information obtained during and as a result of Executive’s employment by Colt for the benefit of an individual or entity other than Colt;

Whereas, Executive wants to work for Colt, and has agreed to certain restrictions in exchange for Colt hiring Executive in a position that will provide Executive with access to Executive’s Business Information, as defined below;

Now therefore, Colt and Executive have agreed to the following:

1.                                Consideration.  In consideration for Executive signing this Agreement, Colt will allow Executive to begin employment with Colt pursuant to the Employment Agreement to which this Agreement is attached as Exhibit A (the “Employment Agreement”).  Executive understands and agrees that his agreement to be bound by the terms of this Agreement was and is a necessary condition of the Employment Agreement and for him being allowed to begin employment by Colt.

2.                                      Changes in Position, Compensation and Employer.  This Agreement will apply to any future positions at Colt, or at any other subsidiary, affiliate, successor or assign of Colt to which Executive may be assigned, and it will continue to apply notwithstanding any changes

in Executive’s job duties or compensation.  Consequently, all references herein to “Colt” apply equally to any such entities by which Executive may be employed.

3.                                Business Information.  As used in this Agreement, the term “Business Information” means any and all of Colt’s trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information, and all other information and data that is not generally known to third persons who could derive economic value from its use or disclosure, including, without limitation, the methods though which Colt identifies, hires, trains and compensates its employees; details regarding Colt’s employees, including their compensation, contact information, and their performance and conduct; methods to locate and qualify contractors, vendors and third party factories; the identity of Colt’s contractors, vendors and third party factories; the individuals, and their contact information, at contractors, vendors and third party factories with whom Colt has dealt; the amounts and types of goods and/or services purchased in the past from contractors, vendors and third party factories; the amounts paid for such past purchases; the identity of Colt’s customers; the individuals, and their contact information, at customers with whom Executive has dealt; the amounts and types of goods purchased in the past by such customers; the amount paid for such past purchases, the timing of such past purchases, and the method of payment for such past purchases; Colt’s plans for future products; the details of any ongoing or planned negotiations for future products; Colt’s plans for the future, including without limitation plans for its products, for geographic and customer markets, and for marketing, promoting and distributing its products.

4.                                      Colt Property.  All tangible materials, equipment, documents, copies of documents, data compilations (in whatever form), software programs, and electronically created or stored materials that Executive receives or makes in the course of employment with Colt are and shall remain the property of Colt and Executive shall immediately return such property to Colt upon Colt’s request and upon the termination of Executive’s employment, for whatever reason, with Colt.  The obligation to return property and documents extends to anything received or made during and as a result of employment by Colt, regardless of whether it was received from Colt or a third party, such as an actual or potential vendor or customers, and regardless of whether a document contains Business Information.  The only documents not subject to the obligation to return are documents directly relating to Employee’s compensation and benefits, such as his pay stubs and benefit plan booklets.

5.                                      Non-Disclosure of Business Information.  Executive will not at any time during his employment by Colt, and for so long thereafter as the pertinent information or documentation remains confidential, use or disclose to others any Business Information, except in the course of his work for Colt.

6.                                      Inventions and Patents.  Executive hereby assigns to Colt all right, title and interest to all patents and patent applications, all inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports and all similar or related information, all copyrights and copyrightable works, and all other intellectual property rights that: (a) are conceived, reduced to practice, developed or made by Executive in the course of his employment by Colt; or (b) either (i) relate to Colt’s actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which were conceived, reduced to practice, developed or made by Executive during or within two years following the Employment Period, or (ii) are conceived, reduced to practice, developed or made using any of equipment, supplies, facilities, assets or resources of Colt conceived, reduced to practice, developed or made by Executive during or

within two years following the Employment Period (all collectively referred to herein as “Work Product”).  Executive shall promptly disclose such Work Product to Colt and perform all actions reasonably requested by Colt (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm Colt’s ownership thereof (including, but not limited to, assignments, consents, powers of attorney, applications and other instruments).

7.                                      Nonsolicitation and Noncompetition.  During the Employment Period and for twelve months immediately thereafter, Executive will not, other than on behalf of Colt, directly or indirectly, as a proprietor, partner, employee, agent or otherwise:

A.            Directly or indirectly solicit any Colt employee, contractor, vendor or third party factory to work for, or provide goods or services to, any other employer or organization.  For the purpose of this provision, “Colt employee, contractor, vendor or third party factory” means any individual who was employed or retained by, or any individual or entity that provided goods or services to, Colt within the last twelve months of Executive’s employment by Colt.

B.            Participate in, work for, or provide services to any person or entity that is, or is actively planning to be, a “Competitive Business.”  The term “Competitive Business” shall mean any business (however organized or conducted) that competes with a business in which Colt is engaged, or in which Colt is actively planning to engage, at any time during the last twelve-months of Executive’s employment by Colt.

9.                                      Disclosure.  Executive will show this Agreement to any prospective employer of Executive, and consents to Colt showing this Agreement to any third party believed by Colt to be a prospective or actual employer of Executive, and to insisting on Executive’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  Executive will provide Colt with at least two weeks’ written notice of any change in Executive’s address, contemplated new employment, and planned new

12.                               Enforcement.  This Agreement is intended to supplement, and does not in any way limit, any of the obligations or duties Executive owes to Colt under statutory or common law.  All of the enforcement provisions, including, without limitation, the provisions regarding governing law, arbitration, Colt’s ability to seek temporary restraining orders or other injunctive relief, and the arbitrator awarding attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party set forth in the Employment Agreement apply to the enforcement of obligations under this Agreement.

13.                               Complete Agreement. This Agreement, and the Employment Agreement to which it is attached as Exhibit A, embody the complete agreement and understanding between Colt and Executive and supersede and preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, which may have been related to the subject matter hereof in any way.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any respect other than in a writing signed by Executive and a member of Colt’s Governing Board.
