<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">On
November&nbsp;8, 2010, the Compensation Committee (the &#147;Committee&#148;) of Methode
Electronics,&nbsp;Inc. (&#147;Methode&#148;) authorized awards of performance-based
restricted stock (&#147;RSAs&#148;) and time-based restricted stock units (&#147;RSUs&#148;) to
executive officers under Methode&#146;s 2010 Stock Plan.&#160; In addition, the Committee authorized tandem
cash awards (&#147;Tandem Cash Awards&#148;) to executive officers under Methode&#146;s 2010
Cash Incentive Plan.&#160; A description of
the material terms and conditions of these awards is set forth below.&#160; These descriptions are qualified by reference
to the full text of the Performance Based Restricted Stock Form&nbsp;Award
Agreement, the Restricted Stock Unit Form&nbsp;Award Agreement and the RSA
Tandem Cash Award Form&nbsp;Award Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit&nbsp;10.1,
Exhibit&nbsp;10.2 and Exhibit&nbsp;10.3, respectively. On November&nbsp;8,
2010, the Committee also approved the terms of a Cash Bonus Form&nbsp;Award
Agreement to be used in the future for cash bonus awards under Methode&#146;s 2010
Cash Incentive Plan.&#160; A copy of the Cash
Bonus Form&nbsp;Award Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit&nbsp;10.4.&#160;&#160; In addition, the Committee and management
agreed to amend the Change In Control Agreements to modify the definition of &#147;Good
Reason&#148; and the circumstances pursuant to which an executive is entitled to
certain additional payments.&#160; A
description of the material terms of the amendment is set forth below.&#160; This description is qualified by reference to
the full text of the Amendment to Change in Control Agreement attached hereto
as Exhibit&nbsp;10.5.</font></p>

Restricted Stock Awards</font></i></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Set
forth below is a table outlining the number of RSAs awarded to our management
team on November&nbsp;8th.&#160; The number of
RSAs that will vest depends on the level of performance achieved in fiscal
2015.&#160; The performance measure is Methode&#146;s
internal enterprise value at the end of fiscal 2015. For this purpose, internal
enterprise value shall equal the product of (i)&nbsp;fiscal 2015 EBITDA and (ii)&nbsp;7.5
(the&nbsp;historic multiple of EBITDA), subject to adjustment for cash,
short-term investments, debt, preferred stock, certain equity issuances,
certain acquisitions and changes in the dividend rate.&#160; The awards reflect a threshold and a target
level of performance.&#160; In the event of a
Change of Control, the number of RSAs that vest will depend on the Company&#146;s
external enterprise value as of the date of the Change of Control.&#160; For this purpose, external enterprise value
shall equal the fair market value of the Company as determined by the bona fide
offer for the purchase of the Company&#146;s Common Stock causing the Change of
Control.&#160; In the event of an executive&#146;s
termination of employment due to death, disability or qualified retirement
prior to the end of fiscal 2015, vesting will be determined based on fiscal
2015 performance, subject to proration based on the date of termination.&#160; Dividends will not be paid on the RSAs until
the shares have vested.&#160; At such time as
the shares vest, the executive is entitled to a payment based on the dividends
declared during the restricted period and the number of shares earned.</font></p>

connection with the RSAs, the Committee granted Tandem Cash Awards to our
management team.&#160; These cash incentive
awards will become payable if Methode&#146;s internal enterprise value at the end of
fiscal 2015 exceeds the RSA target performance level.&#160; If the target performance level for the RSAs
is exceeded, the executives are entitled to a cash payment based on the level
of performance achieved, 40% of the RSAs awarded to the executive and the closing
price of our common stock as of May&nbsp;1, 2015.&#160; In the event of a change of control or a
qualified termination event (death, disability or retirement), the Tandem Cash
Awards will vest in the same manner as the RSA awards.</font></p>

will vest 20% each year on the last day of Methode&#146;s fiscal year and be 100%
vested on the last day of fiscal 2015, provided the executive remains
employed.&#160; Shares of common stock
underlying the vested RSUs will be delivered to the executive upon the earlier
of executive&#146;s termination of employment or a change of control.&#160; In the event of a change in control prior to
the end of fiscal 2015, all unvested RSUs will become immediately and fully
vested.&#160; Dividends will not be paid on
the RSUs until the units have vested.&#160;
Following vesting and until the delivery of the underlying common stock,
each executive is entitled to a quarterly payment in an amount equal to the
aggregate per share cash dividend paid during the quarter multiplied by the
number of vested RSUs held by the executive.</font></p>

November&nbsp;8, 2010, the Committee and management agreed to amend the Change
In Control Agreements to provide that in the event of a Change in Control

to a Gross-Up Payment.&#160; In addition, the
amendments modify the definition of &#147;Good Reason&#148; to require the executive to

the extent provided in Section&nbsp;3(c)&nbsp;or 3(d), the vesting of the
Restricted Shares will be based on the Company&#146;s internal enterprise value at
the end of the Measurement Period (&#147;Internal Enterprise Value&#148;) subject to the
Grantee&#146;s continued employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate to
the end of such Measurement Period, and provided that a Change of Control has
not occurred before the end of the Measurement Period.&#160; For this purpose,&nbsp;Internal Enterprise
Value shall equal (1)&nbsp;the product of (i)&nbsp;the EBITDA for the recently
completed fiscal year and (ii)&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#147;Historic Multiple of EBITDA&#148;
which is set forth on <u>Exhibit&nbsp;A</u> hereto, (2)&nbsp;plus cash and
short-term investments on hand at the end of the Measurement Period, (3)&nbsp;less
debt and preferred stock at the end of the Measurement Period, and (4)&nbsp;adjusted
for equity issuances during the Award Period in connection with acquisitions or
capital raising initiatives.&#160; For this
purpose, (A)&nbsp;EBITDA means the Company&#146;s earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization; (B)&nbsp;in calculating cash on hand at the end
of the Measurement Period, pro forma adjustments will be made in order to
provide for a quarterly cash dividend payment of seven cents ($0.07) per share
during the Award Period (regardless of the actual amount of dividends paid
during the Award Period); and (C)&nbsp;any and all transaction costs and
expenses (out of pocket) and earnings with respect to an acquisition undertaken
pursuant to an acquisition agreement executed after October&nbsp;31, 2013 will
be excluded from the calculation of internal enterprise value. The threshold
and target levels of performance (the &#147;Threshold Internal Enterprise Value&#148; and
the &#147;Target Internal Enterprise Value,&#148;&#160;
respectively) are set forth on <u>Exhibit&nbsp;A</u>, attached
hereto.&#160; <u>Exhibit&nbsp;B</u> attached
hereto sets forth the formula for calculating the vesting percentages based on
the Measurement Period internal enterprise value achieved.&#160; Pursuant to Exhibit&nbsp;B, the number of
Restricted Shares that will vest under this Award shall be determined by
multiplying the number of Restricted Shares described in Section&nbsp;2 above
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal (i)&nbsp;the Internal
Enterprise Value as of the Vesting Date minus (ii)&nbsp;the Threshold Internal
Enterprise Value, and the denominator of which shall equal (a)&nbsp;the Target
Internal Enterprise Value minus (b)&nbsp;the Threshold Internal Enterprise
Value.&#160; If the level of performance
achieved is less than or equal to the Threshold Internal Enterprise Value, then
no Restricted Shares shall vest pursuant to this Section&nbsp;3.3(b).&#160; For the avoidance of doubt, if the Grantee

at any age on account of total and permanent disability as determined by the

above multiplied by (1)&nbsp;a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal (A)&nbsp;the
Internal Enterprise Value as of the Vesting Date minus (B)&nbsp;the Threshold

shall be the number of fiscal months elapsed between the Award Date and the
date of termination of employment (rounded up to the nearest whole month) and

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section&nbsp;3(b), the Restricted
Shares granted hereunder shall vest, in an amount determined according to the
calculation set forth below, upon a Change of Control occurring prior to the
end of the Measurement Period, subject to: (i)&nbsp;the Grantee&#146;s continued
employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliate through the date
immediately preceding the effective date of such Change of Control; or (ii)&nbsp;the
Grantee&#146;s termination of employment by the Company without &#147;Good Cause&#148; or
Grantee&#146;s voluntary termination of such employment with &#147;Good Reason&#148; during
the period beginning on the date an agreement is entered into by the Company
with respect to a merger or other business combination of the Company, which
would constitute a Change of Control, and the effective time of such merger or
other business combination of the Company.&#160;
In such event, the vesting of the Restricted Shares will be based on the
Company&#146;s external enterprise value as of the date of the Change of Control
(the &#147;External Enterprise Value&#148;).&#160; For
this purpose, External Enterprise Value shall equal the fair market value of
the Company as determined by the bona fide offer for the purchase of the
Company&#146;s Common Stock outstanding (including any stock equivalents convertible
to common stock) causing the Change of Control, and the terms &#147;Good Cause&#148; and &#147;Good
Reason&#148; shall have the meanings set forth in the Change in Control </font></p>

In the event of a Change of Control, the threshold and target levels of

attached hereto sets forth the formula for calculating the vesting percentages
based on the actual External Enterprise Value achieved.&#160; Pursuant to Exhibit&nbsp;D, in the event of a
Change of Control, the number of Restricted Shares that will vest under this
Award shall be determined by multiplying the number of Restricted Shares
described in Section&nbsp;2 above by a fraction, the numerator of which shall
equal (i)&nbsp;the actual External Enterprise Value minus (ii)&nbsp;the
Threshold External Enterprise Value, and the denominator of which shall equal (a)&nbsp;the
Target External Enterprise Value minus (b)&nbsp;the Threshold External

Value then no Restricted Shares shall vest pursuant to this Section&nbsp;3.3(d).&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160; Any portion of this Award that does not

Agreement&#148;), effective as of November&nbsp;8, 2010 (the &#147;Effective Date&#148;), is
entered into by and between Methode Electronics,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;), and

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">WHEREAS, the Company desires to reward Grantee for his
services to the Company and to encourage him to continue to work for the benefit
of the Company in a manner that will benefit all Company shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and
the mutual covenants and obligations hereinafter set forth, the Company agrees
to pay Grantee certain cash amounts under the Company&#146;s 2010 Cash Incentive
Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;) on the terms and conditions set forth herein.</font></p>

Amount.</u>&#160; The Company shall pay to
Grantee a cash award (the &#147;Cash Award&#148;) based on the Company&#146;s internal
enterprise value at the end of the Measurement Period (&#147;Internal Enterprise
Value&#148;), provided that a Change of Control has not occurred prior to the end of
the Measurement Period.&#160; The &#147;Measurement Period&#148; is the fiscal year of
the Company ending on May&nbsp;2, 2015, the &#147;Vesting Date&#148; is the last day of
the Measurement Period and the &#147;Award Period&#148; is the period between the date of
this Award Agreement and the Vesting Date.&#160;
For this purpose,&nbsp;Internal Enterprise Value shall equal (1)&nbsp;the
product of (i)&nbsp;the EBITDA for the recently completed fiscal year and (ii)&nbsp;the&nbsp;&#147;Historic
Multiple of EBITDA&#148; which is set forth on <u>Exhibit&nbsp;A</u> hereto, (2)&nbsp;plus
cash and short-term investments on hand at the end of the Measurement Period, (3)&nbsp;less
debt and preferred stock at the end of the Measurement Period, and (4)&nbsp;adjusted
for equity issuances during the Award Period in connection with acquisitions or
capital raising initiatives.&#160; For this
purpose, (A)&nbsp;EBITDA means the Company&#146;s earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization; (B)&nbsp;in calculating cash on hand at the end
of the Measurement Period, pro forma adjustments will be made in order to
provide for a quarterly cash dividend payment of seven cents ($0.07) per share
during the Award Period (regardless of the actual amount of dividends paid
during the Award Period); and (C)&nbsp;any and all transaction costs and
expenses (out of pocket) and earnings with respect to an acquisition undertaken
pursuant to an acquisition agreement executed after October&nbsp;31, 2013 will
be excluded from the calculation of internal enterprise value.</font></p>

Internal Enterprise Value&#148; and the &#147;Target Internal Enterprise Value,&#148;&#160; respectively) are set forth on <u>Exhibit&nbsp;A</u>
hereto.&#160; The amount of the Cash Award, if
any, shall be based upon the performance percentage as calculated pursuant to <u>Exhibit&nbsp;B</u>
hereto (&#147;Performance Percentage&#148;), the number of shares of Restricted Stock
awarded to Grantee pursuant to the Performance Based RSA Award Agreement dated
as of the date hereof (the &#147;RSA shares&#148;) and the May&nbsp;1, 2015 closing price
of the Common Stock of the Company.&#160;
Pursuant to Exhibit&nbsp;B, the Performance Percentage shall equal a
fraction, the numerator of which shall equal (i)&nbsp;the Internal Enterprise
Value as of the Vesting Date minus (ii)&nbsp;the Threshold Internal Enterprise
Value, and the denominator of which shall equal (a)&nbsp;the Target Internal
Enterprise Value minus (b)&nbsp;the Threshold Internal Enterprise Value.&#160; The Cash Award shall be calculated according
