Common use of By the Board Clause in Contracts

By the Board. During the Term, the Board shall be entitled to terminate the Employee's employment with or without "Cause" (as defined below) by providing written notice to the Employee of such decision, provided that if the Board terminates the Employee's employment without Cause (and not as a result of a Disability), then the Board must provide at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice of such decision to the Employee. No advance notice period is required for a termination by the Board with Cause. The Board reserves the right to withdraw any and all duties and responsibilities from the Employee, and to exclude the Employee from the Company's premises, during such 30-day notice period. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean (i) the commission by the Employee of an act of malfeasance, dishonesty, fraud, or breach of trust against the Company or any of its employees, clients, or suppliers, (ii) the breach by the Employee of any of his obligations under this Agreement, or any other agreement between the Employee and the Company, (iii) the Employee's failure to comply with the Company's written policies; (iv) the Employee's failure, neglect, or refusal to perform his duties under this Agreement, or to follow the lawful written directions of the Board, (v) the Employee's indictment, conviction of, or plea of guilty or no contest to, any felony or any crime involving moral turpitude, (vi) any act or omission by the Employee involving dishonesty or fraud or that is, or is reasonably likely to be, injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of the Company, or that otherwise is injurious to the Company's employees, clients, or suppliers, or (vii) the inability of the Employee, as a result of repeated alcohol or drug use, to perform the duties and/or responsibilities of his position.
