(b) Employee's Employment shall terminate immediately upon the discharge of Employee by NOVA for "Cause."

If Employee does not cure the perceived breach or deficiency within the Cure Period, NOVA may discharge Employee immediately upon written notice to Employee. If NOVA desires to terminate Employee's Employment pursuant to subsection (iv) of this Section 7(b), NOVA shall first give Employee three (3) days prior written notice of such intent.
Death, Disability or Retirement Subject to the provisions of Section 1 hereof, this Agreement shall terminate automatically upon the Executive's death, termination due to "Disability" (as defined below) or voluntary retirement under any of the Company's retirement plans as in effect from time to time. For purposes of this Agreement, Disability shall mean the Executive has met the conditions to qualify for long-term disability benefits under the Company's policies, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date.
Expiration of Employment Period If Executive’s employment shall be terminated due to the normal expiration of the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits.
