In the event of such termination, the Executive is entitled to receive payment of the bonus that the Executive would have been entitled to receive under the bonus or other performance plan referred to in Section 4(b) had his employment not been terminated, pro rated for the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the relevant period.
