(c) If the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause or if the Executive terminates his/her employment without Good Reason, or if Executive’s employment ends due to his/her death, then the Company’s sole obligation shall be to pay Executive (or his/her estate) only the Accrued Payments.

In addition, Executive shall be eligible to receive payment of the Target Bonus as set forth in Section 3(b) above, subject to the terms of the MIP and to the extent actually earned for the fiscal year in which such termination takes place, prorated based on the number of days in such fiscal year that Executive was employed prior to the Termination Date, to be paid in accordance with the timing set forth in Section 3(b) (or if later, the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date). (e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s obligation to make any payments or to provide any benefits under Sections 6(b) or Section 6(d) above is subject to and conditioned upon Executive’s execution of an enforceable release and waiver of claims agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company (the “Release Agreement”) and his/her compliance with the covenants in Sections 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 15 of this Agreement. If Executive chooses not to timely execute such Release Agreement, revokes the Release Agreement, or fails to comply with the covenants in Sections 8, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 15 of this Agreement, then the Company’s obligation to compensate him/her ceases on the effective Termination Date except as to the Accrued Payments. The Release Agreement shall be provided to Executive within seven (7) days of the Termination Date and Executive must execute it within the twenty-one (21) or forty-five (45) day time period specified in the Release Agreement. The Release Agreement and any payments due following its execution by Executive shall not be effective until any applicable revocation period has expired. (f) Executive is not entitled to receive any compensation or benefits upon his/her termination except as: (i) set forth in this Agreement, (ii) otherwise required by applicable law, or (iii) otherwise specifically required by any employee benefit plan of the Company in which he/she participates. Moreover, the terms and conditions provided to Executive under this Agreement are in lieu of any severance benefits to which he/she otherwise might be entitled pursuant to any severance plan, policy and practice of the Company and or any of its affiliates. Nothing in this Agreement however, is intended to waive or supplant any accrued death, disability, accidental death and dismemberment, retirement 401 (k) or pension benefits of the Company to which he/she may be entitled under employee benefit plans of the Company in which he/she participates. (g) If, within the twelve (12) month period following a Change in Control, as defined below, Executive is terminated without Cause or he/she resigns for Good Reason, but in either case subject to the provisions of Section 6(e) above, Executive shall, in addition to the payments and benefits set forth in Section 6(b), be entitled to a lump sum payment, payable on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date, equal to the greater of: (A) fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s then Base Salary, or (B) his/her Target Bonus under the MIP.

Compensation Upon Termination or During Disability (i) During any period in which the Executive fails to perform his duties as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, he shall continue to receive his full base salary at the rate then in effect until his employment is terminated pursuant to paragraph 3(i) hereof. Thereafter, his benefits, if any, shall be determined in accordance with whatever disability income insurance plan or plans the Corporation may then have in effect; provided, however, that, if at the time Disability of the Executive is established the disability benefits then available are less advantageous to the Executive than the disability benefits which were available on the date the Change in Control became effective, then his termination of employment by the Corporation shall be deemed to have occurred as a voluntary termination for Good Reason under paragraph 3(iii) hereof and not by reason of Disability, and the provisions of paragraph 4(iii) hereof shall apply in lieu of the provisions of this paragraph 4(i). (ii) If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for Cause or if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Executive without Good Reason, the Corporation shall pay to him his full base salary through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given and the Corporation shall have no further obligations to the Executive under this Agreement. (iii) If the Corporation shall terminate the Executive’s employment other than pursuant to paragraph 3(i) or 3(ii) hereof within 24 months after a Change in Control of the Corporation, or if the Executive shall terminate his employment for Good Reason pursuant to paragraph 3(iii) hereof within 24 months after a Change in Control, then: (A) The Corporation shall pay to the Executive, not later than thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination, the Executive’s accrued but unpaid base salary through the Date of Termination, plus compensation for current and carried-over unused vacation and compensation days in accordance with the Corporation’s personnel policy, and reimbursement for all reasonable business expenses in accordance with the Corporation’s business expense policy. (B) In lieu of any further payments of salary to the Executive after the Date of Termination the Corporation shall pay to the Executive, not later than thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination and notwithstanding any dispute between the Executive and the Corporation as to the payment to the Executive of any other amounts under this Agreement or otherwise, a lump sum severance payment (the “Severance Payment”) equal to 2.99 times an amount equal to the sum of (1) the greater of the Executive’s highest annual base salary in effect at any time within the twelve-month period preceding a Change in Control or the Date of Termination, and (2) the greater of (I) the Target Incentive Award or Target Amount to which the Executive would have been entitled under the Corporation’s Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (the “EICP”) or Annual Discretionary Management Incentive Compensation Plan (the “ADMICP”), as applicable, and the base or target amount to which the Executive would have been entitled under any other annual cash bonus program of the Corporation, had he been employed by the Corporation at the end of the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs, or (II) the highest amount awarded to the Executive under the EICP or ADMICP and under any other annual cash bonus program of the Corporation during the last three fiscal years prior to the Date of Termination. (C) In addition to the foregoing amounts payable under paragraph 4(iii)(A) and (B) above, the Executive will be entitled to the following: (i) a pro rata bonus for the year of termination equal to the Target Incentive Award or Target Amount under the EICP or ADMICP, as applicable, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days that have elapsed from the beginning of the fiscal year in which such termination occurs through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the fiscal year, payable not later than thirty (30) days following the Date of Termination; (ii) any stock option rights held by the Executive which were not fully exercisable on the Date of Termination shall immediately become fully exercisable by the Executive and any restricted stock rights held by the Executive which were not fully vested on the Date of Termination shall immediately become fully vested; (iii) the Corporation shall maintain in full force and effect, for the Executive’s continued benefit, until the earlier of (I) 36 months after the Date of Termination or (II) the Executive’s 65th birthday, all life, medical and dental insurance programs in which the Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the Date of Termination; provided that his continued participation is possible under the general terms and provisions of such programs; provided, further, that, in the event the Executive’s participation in any such program is barred, the Corporation shall arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to those which he was entitled to receive under such programs; (iv) in addition to the benefits to which the Executive is entitled under the Corporation’s retirement plans in which he participates or any successor plans or programs in effect on the Date of Termination, the Corporation shall pay to the Executive in one lump sum in cash, an amount equal to the actuarial equivalent of the retirement pension to which the Executive would have been entitled under the terms of such retirement plan or programs had he accumulated 36 additional months of continuous service after the Date of Termination (or, if less, the number of months between the Date of Termination and the date on which the Executive attains normal retirement age under the plan) at his base salary rate in effect on the Date of Termination reduced by the single sum actuarial equivalent of any amounts to which the Executive is entitled pursuant to the provisions of said retirement plans and programs, discounted to reflect its then present value, paid at the same time as the Severance Payment; provided that, for purposes of this subparagraph (3), the actuarial equivalents shall be determined, and all other calculations shall be made, using the same methods and assumptions utilized under the Corporation’s retirement plan or programs; provided, however, that such methods and assumptions shall be no less favorable to the Executive than those in effect on the date of the Change in Control; and (v) If a Change of Control occurs and Executive becomes entitled to compensation under this Paragraph that would be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, the Company shall reduce its payment of Separation Benefits to the Participant to $1.00 less than that amount which would trigger the excise tax if such reduction would result in the Participant receiving an equal or greater after-tax benefit than the Participant would receive if the full Separation Benefits were paid. (vi) The Executive’s right to receive payments under this Agreement shall not decrease the amount of, or otherwise adversely affect, any other benefits payable to the Executive under any plan, agreement or arrangement relating to employee benefits provided by the Corporation. (vii) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this paragraph 4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this paragraph 4 be reduced by any compensation earned by the Executive as the result of employment by another employer or by reason of the Executive’s receipt of or right to receive any retirement or other benefits after the date of termination of employment or otherwise. (viii) The Corporation may, but shall not be obligated to, provide security for payment of the amounts set forth in this Agreement in a form that will cause such amounts to be includible in the Executive’s gross income only for the taxable year or years in which such amounts are paid to the Executive under the terms of this Agreement. The form of security may include a funded irrevocable grantor trust established so as to satisfy any published Internal Revenue Service guidelines. (ix) The Corporation may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.
