Duration of the present Agreement Sample Clauses

Duration of the present Agreement. This Agreement is concluded for a period of three years. It shall be tacitly extended beyond this term unless it is terminated by one of the parties hereto with one year's notice. Done in as many copies as there are parties in Luxembourg, 2 May 2003. Whereas first the social partners enjoying interprofessional representativeness at European level, in this case BusinessEurope, UEAPME, CEEP and ETUC, have signed on the basis of Article 139 of the Treaty on the European Union an autonomous Framework Agreement on harassment and violence at work dated 26 April 2007; whereas the signatory organisations have undertaken to implement this Agreement in accordance with the procedures and practices of the social partners in the Member States and in the countries of the European Economic Area (within three years of its signature); whereas next the social partners consider that harassment and violence are unacceptable behaviour by one or more people and can take many different forms, some of which are more easily identifiable than others; that such acts have the purpose or effect of violating the dignity of workers, affecting their health and/or creating a hostile working environment; whereas different forms of harassment and violence can affect workplaces; whereas finally the aim of the European Framework Agreement is to raise awareness and better explain to employers, workers and their representatives what harassment and violence in the workplace are, to provide employers, workers and their representatives at all levels a pragmatic framework for identifying, preventing and managing problems of harassment and violence at work; it is therefore important for the signatory parties to transpose this objective at national level; whereas this transposition in no way prejudices the signing of sectoral agreements and/or the conclusion of more specific agreements within companies with the aim of preventing such behaviour and better assisting the victims of such acts; the signatory parties have concluded this Agreement:

  • Consulting Agreement Effective upon Executive’s termination of employment for any reason other than Executive’s termination by the Company for Cause, HCC hereby retains Executive as a consultant (an independent contractor and not as an employee) for a period of five (5) years (the “Consulting Period”). During the Consulting Period, Executive shall serve as Non-Executive Chairman of the Board. Termination of the Term shall not effect the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Section 6, subject to the following: Executive agrees to provide, if requested, 1,000 hours of service (the “Consulting Services”) per year, as required by the Company. Prior to a Change of Control, the Company shall use its best effort to cause Executive to continue as a Director and Chairman of the Board during the term of the Consulting Period. HCC shall pay Executive $450,000 per year of the Consulting Period, payable quarterly, in advance. Executive may elect to delay payment for services, but not the services themselves. During such Consulting Period, Executive shall receive, to the extent permitted by law and the terms of any existing plan, all of the Company’s benefits as if Executive was a full time employee. In addition, the terms of this Section 6 shall remain in full force and effect whether or not Executive dies or suffers a Disability pursuant to the terms hereof during the Consulting Period. Further, if at any time during the Term of this Agreement Executive shall elect, at his sole option, to cease being a full time employee, then and in that event, Executive shall become a consultant pursuant to the terms of this Section. During the Consulting Period, Executive shall have the right to the same benefits for the same purposes and to the same extent as were in effect during the term of this Agreement, provided, however, if Executive ceases to be the Executive Chairman, Executive shall no longer receive Deferred Compensation. The Consulting Services to be provided shall be commensurate with Executive’s training, background, experience and prior duties with the Company Executive shall receive such stock options or cash bonuses as the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion shall determine. Executive agrees to make himself reasonably available to provide such Consulting Services during the Consulting Period; provided, however, the Company agrees that it shall provide reasonable advance notice to Executive of its expected consulting needs and any request for Consulting Services hereunder shall not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s other business activities and personal affairs as determined in good faith by Executive. In addition, Executive shall not be required to perform any requested Consulting Services which, in Executive’s good faith opinion, would cause Executive to breach any fiduciary duty or contractual obligation Executive may have to another employer. Further, during the Consulting Period, Executive shall not be subject to any non-competition provisions except for the two-year period provided for in Section 5(c). Unless waived by Executive, Executive shall not be required to perform Consulting Services for more than four (4) days during any week or for more than eight (8) hours during any day. Executive’s travel time shall constitute hours of Consulting Services for purposes of this Section 6. The Parties contemplate that, when appropriate, the Consulting Services shall be performed at Executive’s office or residence and at the Company’s executive offices in Houston, Texas and may be performed at such other locations only as they may mutually agree upon. Executive shall be properly reimbursed for all travel and other expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in rendering the Consulting Services.
