Employment by Subsidiary For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive’s employment with the Company shall not be deemed to have terminated solely as a result of the Executive continuing to be employed by a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Termination of Employment by Death The Employee's Employment will terminate automatically at the time of his death. If the Employee's Employment terminates by reason of the Employee's death, the Company will pay to the Person the Employee has designated in a written notice delivered to the Company as his beneficiary entitled to that payment, if any, or to the Employee's estate, as applicable, in a cash lump sum within 30 days after the Termination Date, the amount equal to the sum of (i) the portion of the Base Salary through the end of the month in which the Termination Date occurs which has not yet been paid, (ii) all compensation the Employee has previously deferred (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) which has not yet been paid, (iii) any accrued but unpaid vacation pay (if the Employee dies while on Active Status) and (iv) (A) if the Employee dies while on Active Status or during the Part-time Employment Period (other than during the last 12 months of the Part-time Employment Period), an amount equal to the Base Salary being paid for the Compensation Year in which he dies or (B) if the Employee dies during the last 12 months of the Part-time Employment Period, the product of (1) one-twelfth of the Base Salary being paid for the Compensation Year in which the Employee dies multiplied by (2) the number of whole and partial calendar months in the period beginning with the first calendar month after the calendar month in which he dies and ending with the last calendar month in which the Termination Date would have occurred if the Employee's Employment were to have continued to the end of the Part-time Employment Period. For purposes of this Section 5(d), if the anniversary of the Effective Date in the Compensation Year in which the Employee dies has not occurred on or before the Termination Date, the Base Salary for that Compensation Year will be calculated on the assumption that no increase in the amount thereof would be made effective as of that anniversary pursuant to Section 4(a) or 5(e)(i), as applicable.
Assignment by Executive This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's executor and/or administrators, heirs, devisees, and legatees. If the Executive should die while any amount would be payable to Executive hereunder had the Executive continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to the Executive's estate. Executive's rights hereunder shall not otherwise be assignable.
Termination by Executive The Executive may terminate his employment hereunder at any time for any reason by giving the Company prior written notice not less than 30 days prior to such termination. Any termination pursuant to this paragraph 3(e) shall preclude a later claim that such termination was for Good Reason.

If any claim, action, demand or suit should be made or instituted against the Company or any other Releasee because of any actual assignment, subrogation or transfer by Executive, Executive agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and all other Releasees against such claim, action, suit or demand, including necessary expenses of investigation, attorneys’ fees and costs. In the event of Executive’s death, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Executive and Executive’s executors, administrators, heirs, distributees, devisees, and legatees. None of Executive’s rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by Executive, other than Executive’s rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only upon Executive’s death by will or operation of law.
Assistance by Executive During the period of Executive’s employment by Company and thereafter, Executive shall assist Company and its nominee, at any time, in the protection of Company’s (or its affiliates’) worldwide right, title and interest in and to Work Product and the execution of all formal assignment documents requested by Company or its nominee and the execution of all lawful oaths and applications for patents and registration of copyright in the United States and foreign countries.

Upon the effective date of such termination, Executive shall be entitled to (a) accrued and unpaid Salary and vacation through such termination date; and (b) all other compensation and benefits that were vested through such termination date.
