Executive’s entitlement to any other compensation or benefit under any plan of Company shall be governed by and determined in accordance with the terms of such plans, except as otherwise specified in this Agreement.
Accrued Obligations Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not release either Party from any obligation or liability which, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or which is attributable to a period prior to such expiration or termination.
Payment of accrued default interest Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, any interest due under this Clause shall be paid on the last day of the period by reference to which it was determined; and the payment shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Creditor Party to which the overdue amount is due.
Termination Payments and Benefits If during a Change in Control Period, as defined in Section 8, the Employment Period of the Executive shall terminate other than by reason of a Nonqualifying Termination, as defined in Section 8, then the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive (or his executor, administrator or other legal representative, as the case may be) within 30 days following the Termination Date, as compensation for services rendered to the Company and in lieu of any severance amounts which otherwise would be payable to the Executive, the following amounts:
(i) the Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum cash amount equal to the sum of (A) the Executive's Base Compensation, accrued vacation pay and reimbursable expenses incurred through the Termination Date, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid, (B) the Executive's annual bonus in an amount equal to the annualized (for any fiscal year consisting of less than 12 full months or with respect to which the Executive has been employed by the Company for less than 12 full months) bonus payable to the Executive by the Company for the fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs (determined at the higher of the target or actual level of performance for such year), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the termination occurs prior to the Termination Date and the denominator of which is 365 or 366, as applicable, (C) three times the Executive's highest annual rate of Base Compensation during the three full fiscal years prior to the Termination Date, (D) three times the greater of (I) the Executive's highest annual bonus payable during the three full fiscal years prior to the Termination Date and (II) the target bonus payable for the year in which the Termination Date occurs and (E) all accruals under the Zenith Electronics Corporation Supplemental Salaried Profit Sharing Retirement Plan; (ii) for a period of three years commencing on the Termination Date, or until such earlier date on which the Executive becomes covered under similar plans maintained by a subsequent employer, the Company shall continue to provide the Executive and his dependents with coverage, or shall provide substantially equivalent coverage, under all welfare benefit plans or arrangements (including group medical and dental, health and accident, long-term disability, short-term disability, group life insurance and executive insurance programs) with the same level of coverage, upon the same terms and otherwise to the same extent as such plans or arrangements shall have been in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as provided generally with respect to other peer executives of the Company. If the Company cannot provide such continued coverage or substantially equivalent coverage, the Company shall pay the Executive a lump sum cash amount equal to the present value of such coverage; and
(iii) the Company shall provide outplacement services appropriate for the Executive in accordance with industry standards (which shall not exceed 15% of the Executive's Base Compensation).
Termination and Severance Pay A. In the event Employee is terminated by the Board before the expiration of the term of this agreement without just cause, and during that time Employee is willing and able to perform his duties under this Agreement, the Board shall continue to pay Employee's salary for a period of four (4) months after the date of termination (the "Severance Period") and shall continue Employee's then current health insurance coverage for a period of four (4) months. In the event Employer is not able to maintain Employee's health insurance coverage pursuant to the terms of the Township health insurance plan, then Employer shall pay to Employee, for a period of four (4) months, the cost of health insurance premiums at a rate that will continue substantially similar health benefits for Employee and Employee's family, if applicable, as provided under the then current township health insurance plan. In addition, the Board shall pay the cash value of any accrued vacation time. All of the above shall hereinafter be referred to as the Severance Compensation. The parties agree that this Severance Compensation shall constitute Employee's sole and exclusive remedy for termination without just cause
B. In the event Employee is terminated by the Board before the expiration of the term of this agreement with just cause, the Board shall have no obligation to pay the Severance Compensation set forth in Section 3A.
C. In the event the Board, at any time during the term of this Agreement, reduces the salary or other financial benefits of Employee in a greater percentage than an applicable across- the-board reduction for all employees of the Board, or in the event the Board refuses, following written notice, to comply with any other provision benefiting Employee herein, or Employee resigns following a written request by the Board that he resign, then, in that event, Employee may, at his option, be deemed to be "terminated without just cause" as of the date of such reduction, refusal to comply, or written request and Employee shall be entitled to the Severance Compensation as set forth in Section 3A. as if he were terminated without cause. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Board's failure to grant Employee a raise equivalent to that given any or all other Township Employees shall not be deemed a "reduction" as provided herein.
D. In the event Employee desires to voluntarily resign his position with the Board before the expiration of the above term of this employment, then Employee shall give the Board thirty (30) days notice in advance, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. In the event the Employee voluntarily resigns his position, he shall not be entitled to the severance pay provisions contained in Section 3A hereof.

(a) The Employee is convicted of a felony;
(b) The Employee has failed or neglected to carry out his duties hereunder in any material and significant respect, or has been guilty of misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance in office for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to him from the Board specifying the nature of such failure, neglect, misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance in office, unless such misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance is so egregious or of such a nature that it is of a criminal nature or it cannot be corrected.
F. If the Employee is permanently disabled or is otherwise unable to perform his duties because of sickness, accident, injury, mental incapacity or health for a period of eight successive weeks beyond any accrued sick leave and vacation time, the Board shall have the option to terminate this Agreement, and Employee shall receive the Severance Compensation set forth under Paragraph 3A. above.
Termination Benefits (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the voluntary or involuntary termination of Executive's employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Bank and the Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a sum equal to three (3) times the average annual base salary paid to Executive for the three (3) years immediately preceding Executive's termination. In the event the Executive has not been employed by the Bank or Holding Company during all or part of the three immediately preceding years, the annual base salary paid to Executive for such periods shall, for purposes of this Section 3, be deemed to be equal to the Executive's initial base salary upon commencing employment adjusted to reflect assumed annual base salary increases of ten percent (10%). At the discretion of Executive, upon an election pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof, such payment may be made in a lump sum immediately upon severance of Executive's employment or paid, on a pro rata basis, semi-monthly during the thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Bank shall cause to be continued life, health and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive prior to his severance. Such coverage shall cease upon the earlier of Executive's obtaining similar coverage by another employer or twelve (12) months from the date of Executive's termination. In the event the Executive obtains new employment and receives less coverage for life, health or disability, the Bank shall provide coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for the Executive prior to termination for a period of twelve (12) months.
(c) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive will have such rights as specified in the Company's Incentive Stock Option Plan or any other employee benefit plan with respect to options and such other rights as may have been granted to Executive under such plans.
(d) Upon a Change in Control, the Executive will be entitled to the benefits under the Bank's Management Recognition and Retention Plans.
(e) On an annual basis Executive shall elect whether, in the event amounts are payable under Sections 3(a) hereof, such amounts shall be paid in a lump sum or on a pro rata basis pursuant to such sections. Such election shall be irrevocable for the year for which such election is made.
(f) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in the event that:
(i) the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") would be deemed to include an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") or any successor thereto, and
(ii) if such Termination Benefits were reduced to an amount (the "Non- Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount", as determined in accordance with said Section 280G, and the Non- Triggering Amount would be greater than the aggregate value of the Termination Benefits (without such reduction) minus the amount of tax required to be paid by Executive thereon by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Termination Benefits shall be reduced to the Non-Triggering Amount. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3 shall be determined by Executive. In the event that Executive receives the Non-Triggering Amount pursuant to this paragraph (f) and it is subsequently determined by the Internal Revenue Service or judicial authority that Executive is deemed to have received an amount in excess of the Non-Triggering Amount, the Bank or Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to the value of the payments or benefits in excess of the Non-Triggering Amount he is so deemed to have received.
Severance Payments and Benefits Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 below, in the event of a Termination, in lieu of the amount otherwise payable under paragraph 4 above, the Company shall:
(a) Pay the Executive a lump-sum payment in cash no later than ten (10) business days after the date of Termination equal to the sum of:
(i) The sum of: (A) the Executive’s base salary through and including the date of Termination and any bonus amounts which have become payable, to the extent either has not theretofore been paid; (B) a pro rata portion of the Executive’s annual bonus for the fiscal year in which the date of Termination occurs in an amount equal to: (1) the Executive’s Bonus Amount (as defined below), multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the date of Termination occurs through and including the date of Termination, and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365); (C) accrued and unpaid vacation pay through and including the date of Termination; and (D) unreimbursed business expenses through and including the date of Termination;
(ii) An amount equal to the product of the Applicable Multiple (as defined below) and the Executive’s annual salary in effect immediately prior to the date of Termination; and
(iii) An amount equal to the product of the Applicable Multiple and the Executive’s Bonus Amount; Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 6(a), with respect to any amounts which constitute a deferral of compensation subject to Code Section 409A and provided the Executive is a “Specified Employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), such amounts shall be paid to the Executive on the date which is six (6) months after his or her date of Separation from Service.
(b) Continue to provide the Executive (and, if applicable, the Executive’s dependents), for a twenty-four (24) month period following the date of Termination, with the same level of benefits described in paragraph 4(d) of this Agreement upon substantially the same terms and conditions (including contributions required by the Executive for such benefits) as existed immediately prior to the date of Termination (or, if more favorable to the Executive, as such benefits and terms and conditions existed immediately prior to the Change of Control), provided, that if the Executive cannot continue to participate in the Company plans providing such benefits, the Company shall otherwise provide such benefits on the same after-tax basis as if continued participation had been permitted, and further provided the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during the Executive’s taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, in the event the Executive becomes reemployed with another employer and becomes eligible to receive welfare benefits from such employer, the welfare benefits described in this Agreement shall be secondary to such benefits during the period of the Executive’s eligibility, but only to the extent that the Company reimburses the Executive for any increased cost and provides any additional benefits necessary to give the Executive the benefits provided hereunder.
Obligations Following Termination If a Non-Defaulting Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 13(b), then following such termination, Seller shall, at the sole cost and expense of the Defaulting Party, remove the equipment (except for mounting pads and support structures) constituting the System.

Accrued Rights; Surviving Obligations Termination, relinquishment or expiration of this Agreement for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights which shall have accrued to the benefit of either Party under this Agreement prior to such termination, relinquishment or expiration. Such termination, relinquishment or expiration shall not relieve either Party from obligations which are expressly indicated to survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
