Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control (a) If this Agreement shall be terminated within two years after a Change in Control which occurs during the term of this Agreement, provided such termination is by the Executive for Good Reason or by the Company Without Cause (which includes delivery by the Company of a notice of nonrenewal of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3 hereof), in lieu of any obligation the Company may have pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof: (1) The Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within five (5) days after the Date of Termination, if not theretofore paid, the Executive's Base Salary (as in effect on the Date of Termination) through the Date of Termination, and in the case of compensation previously deferred and bonuses previously earned by the Executive, all amounts of such compensation previously deferred and earned and not yet paid by the Company. (2) The Company shall, promptly upon submission by the Executive of supporting documentation, pay or reimburse to the Executive any costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Executive which would have been payable under Section 4.6 hereof if the Executive's employment had not terminated. (3) The Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within five (5) days after the Date of Termination a severance payment equal to one and one-half (1.5) times the sum of (i) the Executive's Base Salary (as in effect on Date of Termination) and (ii) the Executive's most recent Annual Bonus. If the most recent Annual Bonus was a stock option or a stock grant, the value of the bonus will be deemed to be the number of option shares times the closing price of the Common Stock for the 20 trading days prior to the Date of Termination. (4) During the 18-month period commencing on the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue benefits (other than disability benefits), at the Company's expense to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them under Section 4.5 hereof if the Executive's employment had not been terminated (without giving effect to any reduction in such benefits subsequent to the Change in Control which reduction constitutes or may constitute Good Reason). (b) The Company shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive as a result of a termination which entitles the Executive to any payments under Section 6.4 hereof including all such fees and expenses, if any, incurred in contesting or disputing any Notice of Termination under Section 5.3 hereof or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by Section 6.4 hereof. Such payments shall be made within five (5) days after delivery of the Executive's respective written requests for payment accompanied by such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require. (c) Any determination by the Executive pursuant to this Section 6.4 that Good Reason exists for the Executive's termination of employment and that adequate remedy has not occurred shall be presumed correct and shall govern unless the party contesting the determination shows by a clear preponderance of the evidence that it was not a good faith reasonable determination. (d) Notwithstanding any dispute concerning whether Good Reason exists for termination of employment or whether adequate remedy has occurred, the Company shall immediately pay to the Executive any amounts otherwise due under this Section 6.4. The Executive may be required to repay such amounts to the Company if any such dispute is finally determined adversely to the Executive. (e) The Executive shall not be required to mitigate damages with respect to the amount of any payment provided under this Section 6.4 by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided under this Section 6.4 be reduced by retirement benefits, deferred compensation or any compensation earned by the Executive as a result of employment by another employer.
TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT; EFFECT OF TERMINATION (a) Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company at any time: (i) upon the determination that Executive’s performance of his duties has not been fully satisfactory for any reason which would not constitute justifiable cause (as hereinafter defined) or for other business reasons necessitating termination which do not constitute justifiable cause, in either case upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Executive; or (ii) upon the determination that there is justifiable cause (as hereinafter defined) for such termination. (b) Executive’s employment shall terminate upon: (i) the death of Executive; (ii) the “total disability” of Executive (as hereinafter defined in Subsection (c) herein) pursuant to Subsection (h) hereof; or (iii) Executive’s resignation of employment.

(d) For the purposes hereof, the term “justifiable cause” shall mean: any failure or refusal to perform any of the duties pursuant to this Agreement or any breach of this Agreement by the Executive; Executive’s breach of any material written policies, rules or regulations which have been adopted by the Company; Executive’s repeated failure to perform his duties in a satisfactory manner; Executive’s performance of any act or his failure to act, as to which if Executive were prosecuted and convicted, a crime or offense involving money or property of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, or a crime or offense constituting a felony in the jurisdiction involved, would have occurred; any unauthorized disclosure by Executive to any person, firm or corporation of any confidential information or trade secret of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; any attempt by Executive to secure any personal profit in connection with the business of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates; or the engaging by Executive in any business other than the business of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates which interferes with the performance of his duties hereunder. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for justifiable cause, this Agreement shall terminate immediately and Executive shall not be entitled to any amounts or benefits hereunder other than such portion of Executive’s annual base salary and reimbursement of expenses pursuant to Section 5 hereof as have been accrued through the date of his termination of employment.

Effect of Termination of Employment (a) Upon the effective date of termination of the Employee's employment pursuant to Section 6, Section 7(a) or Section 7(c) hereof, neither the Employee nor the Employee's beneficiaries or estate shall have any further rights under this Agreement or any claims against the Corporation arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive, within 30 days of the Termination Date: (i) the unpaid portion of the Base Salary provided for in Section 5(a), computed on a pro rata basis to the Termination Date; (ii) reimbursement for any expenses for which the Employee shall not have theretofore been reimbursed, as provided in Section 5(d); and (iii) the unpaid portion of any amounts earned by the Employee prior to the Termination Date pursuant to any Benefit Arrangement; provided, however, unless specifically provided otherwise in this Section 8, the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any benefits under a Benefit Arrangement that have accrued during a fiscal year if the terms of such Benefit Arrangement require that the beneficiary be employed by the Corporation as of the end of such fiscal year. (b) Upon the termination of the Employee's employment pursuant to Section 7(b), neither the Employee nor the Employee's beneficiaries or estate shall have any further rights under this Agreement or any claims against the Corporation arising out of this Agreement, except the right to receive: (i) the unpaid portion of the Base Salary, computed on a pro rata basis, for the period from the Commencement Date until the first anniversary of the Termination Date, payable in such installments as the Base Salary was paid prior to the Termination Date; and (ii) the payments, if any, referred to in Sections 8(a)(ii) and (iii). (c) The Employee's obligations under Sections 9, 10 and 11 of this Agreement, and the Corporation's obligations under this Section 8, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Employee's employment hereunder.
