  • Certain Termination Benefits Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or otherwise required by law, all compensation and benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement shall terminate on the date of termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to Section 5(c) or Section 5(d) above, the Company shall provide to Executive the following termination benefits (“Termination Benefits”): (i) continuation of salary at a rate equal to one-hundred (100%) of Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the date of termination for a period of twelve months (payment shall be subject to withholding under applicable law and shall be made in periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practice for executive officers of the Company as in effect from time to time) with the first payment starting on the first payroll date that occurs 30 days after the Termination Date; (ii) provided Executive elects and remains eligible for the continuation of group health plan benefits pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq. (commonly known as “COBRA”), the Company will pay with the cost of the regular premium for such benefits shared in the same relative proportion by the Company and Executive as in effect on the date of termination from the date of termination until the earlier of: (1) twelve months after the date of termination, or (2) the date Executive is no longer eligible for COBRA; and (iii) payment of the bonus that the Executive would have been entitled to receive under the bonus or other performance plan referred to in Section 3(b) had his employment not been terminated, prorated based on the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the relevant bonus period. Such payment shall be made to the Executive at the time bonuses under such plan are generally paid to other participants but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the termination date. The Company shall have the right to terminate all of the Termination Benefits set forth in Section 5(e)(i) and Section 5(e)(ii) in the event that Executive fails to comply in any material respect with Executive’s Continuing Obligations under this Agreement.

The Company and Executive agree that the Termination Benefits paid by the Company to Executive under this Section 5(e) shall be in full satisfaction, compromise and release of any claims arising exclusively out of any termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 5(c) or Section 5(d), and that the payment of the Termination Benefits shall be contingent upon Executive’s delivery of a separation agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company that shall include a general release of claims in favor of the Company and related persons and entities (“Release Agreement”), it being understood that no Termination Benefits shall be provided unless and until such Release agreement becomes fully effective.
