By the Company Other than for Cause The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder other than for Cause at any time upon notice to the Executive.
Termination by the Company Other than for Cause (1) The foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment for whatever reason it deems appropriate; provided, however, that in the event such termination is not based on Cause, as provided in Section 6(c) above, the Company may terminate this Agreement upon giving three (3) months' prior written notice. During such three (3) month period, the Executive shall continue to perform the Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall continue to compensate the Executive in accordance with this Agreement. The Executive will receive, at the Executive's option, either (A) a lump sum equal to the "Compensation and Benefits," as hereinafter defined, for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement, at the then current rate, reduced to present value, as set forth in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code or (B) for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement from and after the date of any such termination, the Company shall on the last day of each calendar month pay to the Executive such "Compensation and Benefits," which shall be an amount equal to (Y) One Hundred percent (100%) of the Executive's compensation and benefits set forth in Section 5, which shall specifically include the Base Salary and Executive Benefits (the "Compensation and Benefits"), on the date of any such termination, divided by (Z) twelve (12); provided, however, that if (A) there is a decrease in the Executive's Compensation and Benefits of more than five (5%) percent prior to termination for any reason other than for "Cause", and (B) the Executive is terminated without cause, the Compensation and Benefits shall be as existed immediately prior to such a decrease. The Executive will be entitled to continued Compensation and Benefits coverage and credits as provided in Section 5 or to reimbursement for the cost of providing the Executive with comparable benefit coverage during the term in which the Executive is receiving payments from the Company after termination pursuant to Section 6(d). Such benefit coverage will be offset by comparable coverage provided to the Executive in connection with subsequent employment.
Involuntary Termination Other Than for Cause If Executive's employment is terminated as a result of an Involuntary Termination other than for Cause, then the following severance benefits shall be paid or otherwise provided to Executive: (A) the Company shall pay to Executive in the form of a lump sum payment, in cash, a severance payment equal to the lesser of (I) three (3) times Executive's Base Salary or (II) Executive's Base Salary multiplied by the sum of (x) the number of years (or any portion thereof, calculated on a daily basis) remaining under this Agreement had Executive's employment not been terminated, plus (y) an additional one-half year, however, in no event shall such payment equal less than 100% of Executive's Base Salary, which shall be paid to Executive within ten (10) days after the date of termination; (B) until the earlier of (I) the date this Agreement would otherwise have terminated had Executive's employment not been terminated (the 'Remaining Term') or (II) the expiration of the three (3) year period measured from the date of Executive's termination of employment. The Company shall at its sole cost and expense provide Executive (and Executive's eligible dependents, if any) with life, disability, and medical insurance benefits substantially similar to those benefits that Executive (and Executive's dependents) were receiving immediately prior to Executive's termination of employment; provided, however, that the benefits otherwise receivable by Executive pursuant to this Section 9(a)(ii)(B) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are concurrently received by Executive (or Executive's dependents) pursuant to a similar plan or program of another employer, and any such other benefits actually received by Executive (or Executive's dependents) must be reported to the Company; and provided further, however, that the insurance coverage provided by the Company pursuant to this Section 9(a)(ii)(B) shall be in lieu of any other continued coverage to which Executive or Executive's dependents would otherwise, at Executive's own expense, be entitled in accordance with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ('Code'), Section 4980B ('COBRA'), by reason of Executive's termination of employment; (C) all stock options, warrants, rights and other Company stock-related awards granted to Executive by the Company that would otherwise have vested or become exercisable at any time in the future shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable upon the date of Executive's termination of employment, the Company's repurchase rights, if any, with respect to those vested shares shall immediately lapse, and each such stock option, to the extent vested, shall remain exercisable for the vested option shares until the expiration or sooner termination of the option term in accordance with the provisions of the agreement evidencing such option; and (D) the Company shall pay or reimburse Executive for any and all expenses incurred by Executive for outplacement services selected by the Executive and approved by the Company, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, until the earlier of (I) the first anniversary of the date of termination of employment or (II) the date on which Executive commences employment with another employer.
