Severance Allowance A laid-off employee shall be entitled to severance allowance pursuant to Article 55.
Lump Sum Severance Payment Payment of a lump sum amount equal to twelve (12) months of Executive’s then-current Base Salary plus the Pro Rated Bonus, less all customary and required taxes and employment-related deductions, paid on the first payroll date following the date on which the Release required by Paragraph 4(g) becomes effective and non-revocable, but not after seventy (70) days following the effective date of termination from employment.
Compensation Other Than Severance Payments 4.1 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in Control, the Company shall pay the Executive’s full salary to the Executive through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if Section 18(n)(ii) is applicable as an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, the rate in effect immediately prior to such event or circumstance, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the Executive through the Date of Termination under the terms of the Company’s compensation and benefit plans, programs or arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination (or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason). In addition, if the Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason following a Change in Control other than (a) by the Company for Cause and (b) by the Executive without Good Reason, then the Company shall pay a pro-rata portion of the Executive’s annual bonus for the performance year in which such termination occurs to the Executive on the later of (x) the date that annual bonuses are generally paid to other senior executives and (y) the date that is the first business day after the date that is six months after the Date of Termination. This pro-rata bonus shall be determined by multiplying the amount the Executive would have received based upon actual financial performance through such termination, as reasonably determined by the Company, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during such performance year that the Executive is employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 365. 4.2 If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for any reason following a Change in Control, the Company shall pay to the Executive the Executive’s normal post-termination compensation and benefits as such payments become due. Such post-termination compensation and benefits shall be determined under, and paid in accordance with, the Company’s retirement, insurance and other compensation or benefit plans, programs and arrangements as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the first event or circumstance constituting Good Reason.
Severance Payment If, during the Employment Term at any time during the period of twelve (12) consecutive months following the occurrence of a Change in Corporate Control, the Executive is involuntarily terminated (other than for Cause) or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, then subject to compliance with the restrictive covenants in Section 9 and Section 10 and the execution and timely return by the Executive of the Release, the Executive shall be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to the present value of a series of monthly payments for twenty-four (24) months, each in an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the sum of (i) the Executive’s Base Salary, as in effect at the time of the Change in Corporate Control, and (ii) the average of the annual bonuses paid to the Executive for the prior two fiscal years of the Company ending prior to the Change in Corporate Control, if any. Such present value shall be calculated using a discount rate equal to the interest rate on 90-day Treasury bills, as reported in the Wall Street Journal (or similar publication) on the date of the Change in Corporate Control. Such lump sum payment shall be made to the Executive within sixty (60) days following the date of such involuntary termination. In addition, if during the Employment Term within twelve (12) months after a Change in Corporate Control the Executive is involuntarily terminated (other than for Cause) or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, he shall be entitled to continued coverage at the Company’s expense under any health insurance programs maintained by the Company in which the Executive participated at the time of his termination, which coverage shall be continued for eighteen (18) months or until, if earlier, the date the Executive obtains comparable coverage under a group health plan maintained by a new employer. To the extent the benefits provided under the immediately preceding sentence are otherwise taxable to the Executive, such benefits, for purposes of Section 409A of the Code (and the regulations and other guidance issued thereunder) shall be provided as separate monthly in-kind payments of those benefits, and to the extent those benefits are subject to and not otherwise excepted from Section 409A of the Code, the provision of the in-kind benefits during one calendar year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided in any other calendar year.
Termination and Severance Pay A. In the event Employee is terminated by the Board before the expiration of the term of this agreement without just cause, and during that time Employee is willing and able to perform his duties under this Agreement, the Board shall continue to pay Employee's salary for a period of four (4) months after the date of termination (the "Severance Period") and shall continue Employee's then current health insurance coverage for a period of four (4) months. In the event Employer is not able to maintain Employee's health insurance coverage pursuant to the terms of the Township health insurance plan, then Employer shall pay to Employee, for a period of four (4) months, the cost of health insurance premiums at a rate that will continue substantially similar health benefits for Employee and Employee's family, if applicable, as provided under the then current township health insurance plan. In addition, the Board shall pay the cash value of any accrued vacation time. All of the above shall hereinafter be referred to as the Severance Compensation. The parties agree that this Severance Compensation shall constitute Employee's sole and exclusive remedy for termination without just cause B. In the event Employee is terminated by the Board before the expiration of the term of this agreement with just cause, the Board shall have no obligation to pay the Severance Compensation set forth in Section 3A. C. In the event the Board, at any time during the term of this Agreement, reduces the salary or other financial benefits of Employee in a greater percentage than an applicable across- the-board reduction for all employees of the Board, or in the event the Board refuses, following written notice, to comply with any other provision benefiting Employee herein, or Employee resigns following a written request by the Board that he resign, then, in that event, Employee may, at his option, be deemed to be "terminated without just cause" as of the date of such reduction, refusal to comply, or written request and Employee shall be entitled to the Severance Compensation as set forth in Section 3A. as if he were terminated without cause. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Board's failure to grant Employee a raise equivalent to that given any or all other Township Employees shall not be deemed a "reduction" as provided herein. D. In the event Employee desires to voluntarily resign his position with the Board before the expiration of the above term of this employment, then Employee shall give the Board thirty (30) days notice in advance, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. In the event the Employee voluntarily resigns his position, he shall not be entitled to the severance pay provisions contained in Section 3A hereof. E. For the purposes of Section 3. hereof, "just cause" shall mean the following: (a) The Employee is convicted of a felony; (b) The Employee has failed or neglected to carry out his duties hereunder in any material and significant respect, or has been guilty of misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance in office for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to him from the Board specifying the nature of such failure, neglect, misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance in office, unless such misfeasance, malfeasance, or nonfeasance is so egregious or of such a nature that it is of a criminal nature or it cannot be corrected. F. If the Employee is permanently disabled or is otherwise unable to perform his duties because of sickness, accident, injury, mental incapacity or health for a period of eight successive weeks beyond any accrued sick leave and vacation time, the Board shall have the option to terminate this Agreement, and Employee shall receive the Severance Compensation set forth under Paragraph 3A. above.
Car Allowance The Company shall provide the Executive an automobile allowance of $750 per month during the term of Executive’s employment hereunder.
Severance Payments 5.1 The Company shall pay the Executive the payments described in this Section 5.1 ("Severance Payments") upon the termination of the Executive's employment following a Change in Control during the term of this Agreement, including the Executive's termination of employment for Good Reason, unless such termination is (a) by the Company for Cause, or (b) by reason of the Executive's Death or Disability. The Executive's employment shall be deemed to have been terminated following a Change in Control by the Company without Cause if the Executive's employment is terminated prior to a Change in Control without Cause at the direction (or action which constitutes a direction) of a Person who has entered into an agreement with the Company the consummation of which will constitute a Change in Control. (i) Within three (3) business days after the Date of Termination, the Company shall make a lump sum or monthly, at the Executive's option, cash severance payment to the Executive in an amount equal to: (x) the Executive's annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the event or circumstance upon which the Notice of Termination is based or in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; and (y) a pro-rated portion of Executive's Targeted Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs. (ii) For a twelve (12) month period after the Date of Termination, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with medical and dental insurance benefits substantially similar to those that the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the Notice of Termination. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 5.1(ii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by or made available to the Executive without cost during the twelve (12) month period following the Executive's termination of employment (and any such benefits actually received by the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive). 5.2 The Company also shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in disputing the non-payment of Severance Payments in connection with a termination which entitles the Executive to Severance Payments. Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days after delivery of the Executive's written request for payment accompanied with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require.
Termination Severance Either party may terminate the employment relationship as evidenced by this Agreement at any time and for any reason upon ninety days written notice to the other. a. If You elect to terminate the employment relationship, or if You are terminated by the Company for Cause, You shall receive Base Pay and benefits through the date of termination. Cause means your termination of employment with the Corporation based upon embezzlement or other intentional misconduct which is materially injurious to the Corporation, monetarily or otherwise. b. If the Corporation elects to terminate the employment relationship or if You elect to resign for Good Reason, You shall receive a severance payment equal to one and one-half (1-1/2) times the sum of your present Base Pay plus your most recent annual incentive payment (the "Severance Payment"), in full satisfaction of the Corporation's obligations to You as an employee. The Severance Payment will be paid within fifteen (15) days of the date of termination and shall be subject to payroll taxes and any withholding obligations. Good Reason means the occurrence of any of the following events: (1) a material change in your responsibilities or title which are not of comparable responsibility and status as those held upon execution of this Agreement; (2) a reduction in your Base Pay, or a modification of the Corporation's incentive compensation program or benefits in a manner materially adverse to You; (3) a breach or alteration of any material term of this contract without your consent. c. If You are terminated in connection with a Change in Control, as defined by the Change in Control Severance Agreement entered into by You and the Corporation (the "Severance Agreement"), and You receive payment of the severance benefits under Section 4 of the Severance Agreement, no Severance Payment shall be due to You under this Agreement.

Employees on leave of absence up to one (1) year, and employees receiving Workers' Compensation or off sick will be eligible. (c) They have not been granted retirement pension.

(b) Notwithstanding 2 (a) above, should the plant re-open the rehired employee(s) who have received separation pay shall be accredited with full seniority rights accrued during their employment upon returning such separation pay within a period not to exceed thirty (30) working days. 23.03 In the event that part of the plant remains open, employees eligible to receive separation allowance may elect to remain on the seniority list for possible recall. The Company will hold the separation allowance for such employees so long as they are eligible for recall, during which time the employee may request payment subject to the provisions of the above section. Those re-employed on this basis shall continue to accumulate seniority during the period of layoff. 23.04 In respect of those employees who are eligible for separation allowance under this Article, the Company will continue to contribute to the Group Life Insurance, Dental, Medical Surgical, Major Medical and Hospitalization Plans. Such contributions shall continue for a period up to five (5) months following the month in which the plant is closed and will be made on the basis existing at the time of closing. 23.05 Should the Company open a plant in British Columbia, or transfer any of its present operations covered by this Agreement and present employees are displaced because of this, the Company agrees that such employees will be the first to be employed, in order of seniority, at such new plant or operation. The selection of available jobs, under the provisions of this clause, shall be on the basis of seniority.
