I am pushing at the top of my limits to stay with the group on the flats. Don't have much left at the start of the hills or any inclines. Traffic lights are a great equalizer and let me catchup at the bottom of the hills on the other side - when I'm lucky :-)

Beyond that I suspect he's pushing too hard on the flats and out of gas in the hills. Aero drag is the worst for lightweight riders. You need to learn just how hard you can push before you pop, then make sure to stay under that on the flats and push when you hit a hill.
