Employment Relationship Employment with the Company is for no specific period of time. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).
Term and Termination of Employment (a) This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Date.
Termination of Employment Relationship 3.1 The Executive’s employment with the Company shall automatically terminate, and the Employment Term shall thereupon terminate:
At-Will Employment Relationship Executive’s employment with the Company is at-will and not for any specified period and may be terminated at any time, with or without Cause or advance notice, by either Executive or the Company. Any change to the at-will employment relationship must be by specific, written agreement signed by Executive and an authorized representative of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or should be construed to contradict, modify or alter this at-will relationship.
Duration and Termination This Agreement shall become effective on July 21, 2015 and shall continue in effect until February 28, 2017, and thereafter, only if such continuance is approved at least annually by a vote of the Board, including the vote of a majority of the directors who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of any such party, cast in person, at a meeting called for the purpose of voting such approval. In addition, the question of continuance of this Agreement may be presented to the shareholders of the Portfolio; in such event, such continuance shall be effected only if approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio. This Agreement may at any time be terminated without payment of any penalty either by vote of the Board or by vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio, on not more than (60) sixty days’ written notice to the Manager. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment. This Agreement may be terminated by the Manager after ninety (90) days’ written notice to the Fund. Any notice under this Agreement shall be given in writing, addressed and delivered, or mailed post-paid, to the other party at any office of such party. As used in this Section, the terms “assignment,” “interested persons,” “voting securities,” and a “majority of the outstanding voting securities” shall have the respective meanings set forth in Section 2(a)(4), Section 2(a)(19), Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act and Rule 18f-2 thereunder.
