Related to Certain Severance Benefits

  • Right to Severance Benefits The Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company Severance Benefits, as described in Section 4.3, if the Executive has incurred a Qualifying Termination. The Executive shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits if his employment terminates (regardless of the reason) before the Protected Period (as such term is defined in Section 4.2(c)) corresponding to a Change in Control of the Company or more than twenty-four (24) months after the date of a Change in Control of the Company.

  • Change in Control Severance Benefits If there is a Change in Control, and within one (1) year of such Change in Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated under the circumstances described in Sections 4(a) through 4(f) above, the Executive shall be entitled to the following: (I) if such termination is a termination by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 4(a) or the Executive resigns for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(b), the Company shall pay the Executive the Accrued Obligations and the Pro Rata Bonus and, in addition, subject to the provisions of Section 19, (A) an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of the Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination or resignation, payable in a lump sum within sixty (60) calendar days of the date of termination or resignation; and (B) provided the Executive timely elects continuation coverage under COBRA, the Company shall also pay, on the Executive’s behalf, the portion of monthly premiums for the Executive’s group health insurance, including coverage for the Executive’s dependents, that the Company paid immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation, during the eighteen (18) month period following the date of termination or resignation, subject to the Executive’s continued eligibility for COBRA coverage. The Company will pay for such COBRA coverage for eligible dependents only for those dependents who were enrolled immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation. The Executive will continue to be required to pay that portion of the premium for the Executive’s health coverage, including coverage for the Executive’s eligible dependents, that the Executive was required to pay as an active employee immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that under applicable guidance the reimbursement of COBRA premiums causes the Company’s group health plan to violate any applicable nondiscrimination rule, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith a mutually agreeable alternative arrangement; and (II) if such termination is a termination or resignation under the circumstances described in Sections 4(c), 4(d), 4(e) or 4(f), the Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits for which the Executive is eligible under such sections.

  • Severance Benefits If (x) the Company terminates your employment for any reason other than for Cause (as defined below), death or Disability (as defined below), or (y) you resign from your employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) (each such event, a “Qualified Separation”), subject to the terms of this Agreement (including satisfaction of the Release Requirement) and your continued compliance in all material respects with your Non-Disclosure and Non-Compete Agreement (which noncompliance, if curable in the reasonable discretion of the Company, is not cured to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from the Company of such noncompliance), then the Company shall pay or provide you with the following benefits: (i) severance payments in the form of salary continuation at a rate equal to your Base Salary, at the rate in effect at the time of your separation date (and prior to any reduction that would constitute Good Reason hereunder), for the Severance Period; (ii) a pro-rata portion (based upon the number of days you were employed in the applicable year) of your annual bonus target for the year in which your termination occurs (iii) provided you timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, or state continuation coverage (as applicable), under the Company’s group health plans following such termination, the Company will pay the full COBRA, or state continuation coverage, premiums to continue your (and your covered dependents, as applicable) health insurance coverage in effect on the termination date until the earliest of: (1) the last day of the final full month of the Severance Period; (2) the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment; or (3) the date you cease to be eligible for COBRA or state law continuation coverage for any reason, including plan termination; provided that if at any time the Company determines that its payment of COBRA, or state continuation coverage, premiums on your behalf would result in a violation of applicable law (including, but not limited to, the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act), then in lieu of paying such premiums pursuant to this Section, the Company shall pay you on the last day of each remaining month of the period specified above, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA or state continuation coverage premium for such month, subject to applicable tax withholding, for the remainder of such period; and (iv) unless an option award provides for a more favorable post-termination exercise period, with respect to any options granted to you, such options (to the extent that you are entitled to exercise such options as of the date of termination of continuous service) shall be exercisable until the date that is six (6) months after the termination of your employment with the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary), subject to earlier termination in accordance with the Plan, and in no event will your options be exercisable beyond the original expiration date of such options. In addition, the Company shall pay or provide you with the following: (i) any unpaid accrued bonus for the immediately prior year (payable when bonuses are paid to other executives of the Company), (ii) any unpaid accrued vacation in accordance with the Company’s paid time off policies, (iii) unreimbursed expenses (paid pursuant to the Company’s expense reimbursement policy) and (iv) all accrued vested benefits provided pursuant to the terms of the Company’s benefit plans (the “Accrued Obligations”). Your right to receive your severance amounts shall not be subject to mitigation or reduced by any other amounts you receive from a subsequent employer or otherwise except as provided under clause (2) of the COBRA reimbursement provisions set forth above. In addition, if a Change in Control (as defined below) is consummated and a Qualified Separation occurs within the Change in Control Period, then (i) 100% of the then-unvested portion of any stock option or restricted stock award issued to you by the Company shall vest as of the Release Effective Date, (ii) unless an option award provides for a more favorable post-termination exercise period, with respect to any options granted to you, such options shall be exercisable until the date that is eighteen (18) months after the termination of your employment with the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary), subject to earlier termination in accordance with the Plan, and in no event will your options be exercisable beyond the original expiration date of such options and (iii) provided such transaction constitutes a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the cash severance payments described in clause (i) of the preceding paragraph will be paid in a single lump sum on the first payroll date that follows the Release Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such termination occurs during the Change in Control Period, but prior to a Change in Control, cash severance shall commence to be paid in installments in accordance with clause (i) of the preceding paragraph, and upon the occurrence of such Change in Control, the remainder of the cash severance payment shall be payable in a lump-sum in accordance with this section on the first regular payroll date following the closing of such Change in Control. The severance payments described above will be paid in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures, and, subject to your satisfaction of the Release Requirement (as defined below), will commence on the first payroll date that follows the Release Effective Date, and once they commence will be retroactive to the date of your Qualified Separation. The pro-rata portion of your bonus will be paid within seven business days following the Release Effective Date. You will not be entitled to any of the benefits described above unless you (i) have returned all Company property in your possession, including (without limitation) copies of documents that belong to the Company and files stored on your computer(s) that contain information belonging to the Company and (ii) have satisfied the following release requirements (the “Release Requirement”): sign and return a separation agreement and general release of claims in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, including any reasonable modifications taking into consideration relevant federal and state laws at the time of termination (the “Release”) and such Release becomes effective and irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days following the date of your Qualified Separation or such earlier date required by the release (the “Release Deadline”), and permit the Release to become effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms (such effective date of the Release, the “Release Effective Date”). If you fail to return the release on or before the Release Deadline, or if you revoke the release, then you will not be entitled to the benefits described above. You acknowledge and agree that if you resign without Good Reason or if the Company terminates your employment for Cause, you will not be eligible to receive any of the benefits described above, other than the Accrued Obligations (but not including the payment under clause (i) of Accrued Obligations). It is intended that all of the payments and benefits payable under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Code Section 409A and this Agreement will be construed to the greatest extent possible as consistent with those provisions, and to the extent no so exempt, this Agreement (and any definitions hereunder) will be construed in a manner that complies with Section 409A. If the parties agree in good faith that this Agreement is not in compliance with Section 409A, the parties shall cooperate to attempt to modify this Agreement to comply with Section 409A while endeavoring to maintain its economic benefits to the greatest extent practicable. For purposes of Code Section 409A (including, without limitation, for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii)), your right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement (whether severance payments, reimbursements or otherwise) shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each installment payment hereunder shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if you are deemed by the Company at the time of your “separation from service” (as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), without regard to any alternative definition thereunder, a “Separation from Service”) to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), and if any of the payments upon Separation from Service set forth herein and/or under any other agreement with the Company are deemed to be “deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of such payments is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the related adverse taxation under Section 409A, such payments shall not be provided to you prior to the earliest of (i) the expiration of the six-month and one day period measured from the date of your Separation from Service with the Company, (ii) the date of your death or (iii) such earlier date as permitted under Section 409A without the imposition of adverse taxation. Upon the first business day following the expiration of such applicable Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) period, all payments deferred pursuant to this Section shall be paid in a lump sum to you, and any remaining payments due shall be paid as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable agreement. No interest shall be due on any amounts so deferred. If the Company determines that any severance benefits provided under this Agreement constitutes “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, for purposes of determining the schedule for payment of the severance benefits, the effective date of the Release will not be deemed to have occurred any earlier than the sixtieth (60th) date following the Separation From Service, regardless of when the Release actually becomes effective. In addition to the above, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A and the applicable regulations and guidance issued thereunder, if the applicable time period for you to execute (and not revoke) the applicable Release spans two calendar years, payment of the applicable severance benefits shall not commence until the beginning of the second calendar year. The Company makes no representation that compensation paid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to any such payment. In addition, you acknowledge and agree that the payments and benefits described in this agreement (in addition to any other payments and benefits payable to you by the Company or any affiliate thereof) may be subject to reduction as set forth on Attachment A, which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement.

  • Description of Severance Benefits In the event the Executive becomes entitled to receive Severance Benefits, as provided in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 herein, the Company shall pay to the Executive and provide him with the following Severance Benefits:

  • Change of Control Severance Benefits A Covered Termination of Executive’s employment on or within twelve (12) months following the effective date of a Change of Control entitles Executive to receive the benefits set forth in this Section 3.2.

  • Other Severance Benefits The severance pay and benefits provided for in Section 6.1(b) shall be in lieu of any other severance or termination pay to which the Executive may be entitled under any Company severance or termination plan, program, practice or arrangement. The Executive’s entitlement to any other compensation or benefits shall be determined in accordance with the Company’s employee benefit plans and other applicable programs, policies and practices then in effect.

  • Reduction of Severance Benefits If any payment or benefit that the Executive would receive from any Company Group member or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be either (x) the full amount of the Payment or (y) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and the Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by any member of the Company Group for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

  • Cash Severance Benefits Severance equal to the amount set forth in the Participant’s Participation Agreement and payable in cash in a lump sum in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan, including without limitation Section 7 hereof.

  • Additional Severance Benefits In the event that it is determined that any payment or benefit provided by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive, either under this Agreement or otherwise, will be subject to the excise tax imposed by section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code or any successor provision ("section 4999"), the Company will, prior to the date on which any amount of the excise tax must be paid or withheld, make an additional lump-sum payment (the "gross-up payment") to Executive. The gross-up payment will be sufficient, after giving effect to all federal, state and other taxes and charges with respect to the gross-up payment, to make Executive whole for all taxes (including withholding taxes) imposed under section 4999. Determinations under this Section 2 will be made by the Company's then current firm of independent auditors (the "Firm"). The determinations of the Firm will be binding upon the Company and Executive except as the determinations are established in resolution (including by settlement) of a controversy with the Internal Revenue Service to have been incorrect. All fees and expenses of the Firm will be paid by the Company. If the Internal Revenue Service asserts a claim that, if successful, would require the Company to make a gross-up payment or an additional gross-up payment, the Company and Executive will cooperate fully in resolving the controversy with the Internal Revenue Service. The Company will make or advance such gross-up payments as are necessary to prevent Executive from having to bear the cost of payments made to the Internal Revenue Service in the course of, or as a result of, the controversy. The Firm will determine the amount of such gross-up payments or advances and will determine after resolution of the controversy whether any advances must be returned by Executive to the Company. The Company will bear all expenses of the controversy and will gross Executive up for any additional taxes that may be imposed upon Executive as a result of its payment of such expenses.

  • Form and Timing of Severance Benefits The Severance Benefits described in Sections 3.3(a), 3.3(b), and 3.3(c) herein shall be paid in cash to the Executive in a single lump sum as soon as practicable following the Effective Date of Termination, but in no event beyond thirty (30) days after such date (with the actual payment date during such 30-day period to be determined by the Company in its discretion).
