CHANGE IN CONTROL EQUITY-BASED BENEFITS. If a Change in Control occurs, any benefits Executive may be entitled to with respect to any equity-based compensation (including any Equity Awards) shall be determined in accordance with the applicable plans and award agreements. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any such plans or award agreement and Section 2(c) of this Agreement, the terms of such plan or award agreement shall control to the extent such plan or award agreement provides for accelerated vesting or settlement in connection with a Change in Control (either upon the occurrence of such an event or thereafter). For the avoidance of doubt, if any given equity-based compensation award agreement is silent with respect to the effect of a Change in Control and the plan pursuant to which any such award agreement is granted does not contain provisions that would automatically apply to the given award, then Section 2(c) of this Agreement shall control.
