Timing of Reimbursements and In-kind Benefits If Executive is entitled to be paid or reimbursed for any taxable expenses under this Agreement, and such payments or reimbursements are includible in Executive’s federal gross taxable income, the amount of such expenses reimbursable in any one calendar year shall not affect the amount reimbursable in any other calendar year, and the reimbursement of an eligible expense must be made no later than December 31 of the year after the year in which the expense was incurred. No right of Executive to reimbursement of expenses under this Agreement shall be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
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 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.
PRESENT CONDITIONS AND BENEFITS All rights, benefits and working conditions which employees now enjoy, receive or possess as employees of the Employer shall continue to be enjoyed and possessed insofar as they are consistent with this Agreement but may be modified by mutual agreement between the Employer and the Union.
Severance Payments and Benefits Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 below, in the event of a Termination, in lieu of the amount otherwise payable under paragraph 4 above, the Company shall: (a) Pay the Executive a lump-sum payment in cash no later than ten (10) business days after the date of Termination equal to the sum of: (i) The sum of: (A) the Executive’s base salary through and including the date of Termination and any bonus amounts which have become payable, to the extent either has not theretofore been paid; (B) a pro rata portion of the Executive’s annual bonus for the fiscal year in which the date of Termination occurs in an amount equal to: (1) the Executive’s Bonus Amount (as defined below), multiplied by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the date of Termination occurs through and including the date of Termination, and the denominator of which is three hundred sixty-five (365); (C) accrued and unpaid vacation pay through and including the date of Termination; and (D) unreimbursed business expenses through and including the date of Termination; (ii) An amount equal to the product of the Applicable Multiple (as defined below) and the Executive’s annual salary in effect immediately prior to the date of Termination; and (iii) An amount equal to the product of the Applicable Multiple and the Executive’s Bonus Amount; Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph 6(a), with respect to any amounts which constitute a deferral of compensation subject to Code Section 409A and provided the Executive is a “Specified Employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), such amounts shall be paid to the Executive on the date which is six (6) months after his or her date of Separation from Service. (b) Continue to provide the Executive (and, if applicable, the Executive’s dependents), for a twenty-four (24) month period following the date of Termination, with the same level of benefits described in paragraph 4(d) of this Agreement upon substantially the same terms and conditions (including contributions required by the Executive for such benefits) as existed immediately prior to the date of Termination (or, if more favorable to the Executive, as such benefits and terms and conditions existed immediately prior to the Change of Control), provided, that if the Executive cannot continue to participate in the Company plans providing such benefits, the Company shall otherwise provide such benefits on the same after-tax basis as if continued participation had been permitted, and further provided the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during the Executive’s taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, in the event the Executive becomes reemployed with another employer and becomes eligible to receive welfare benefits from such employer, the welfare benefits described in this Agreement shall be secondary to such benefits during the period of the Executive’s eligibility, but only to the extent that the Company reimburses the Executive for any increased cost and provides any additional benefits necessary to give the Executive the benefits provided hereunder.
Description of Severance Benefits In the event Executive becomes entitled under Sections 2.1 and 2.2 herein to receive Severance Benefits, the Company shall pay to Executive and provide him or her with the following benefits: (a) A lump sum payment of accrued and unpaid Base Salary, any annual bonus award earned by Executive for a fiscal year of the Company that ended prior to Executive’s Effective Date of Termination that has not yet been paid, unused vacation or paid time off, and other accrued benefits through the Effective Date of Termination (together, the “Accrued Obligations”), paid on the same basis as paid upon any voluntary termination of employment. Such lump sum amount shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures. (b) A lump sum amount equal to Executive’s annual bonus award earned as of the Effective Date of Termination, based on target performance (excluding any special bonus payments), except that the bonus will be prorated for the portion of the fiscal year during which Executive was actively employed. This payment will be in lieu of any other payment to be made to Executive under the annual bonus plan for such fiscal year in which Executive is then participating. (c) A lump sum amount equal to two (2) multiplied by the sum of the following: (i) the higher of: (A) Executive’s Base Salary in effect upon the Effective Date of Termination, or (B) Executive’s Base Salary in effect on the date of the Change in Control; and (ii) the higher of: (A) Executive’s annual target bonus opportunity for the fiscal year of the Company in which Executive’s Effective Date of Termination occurs, or (B) the average of the actual annual bonuses earned (whether or not deferred) by Executive under the annual bonus plan (excluding any special bonus payments) in which Executive participated in the three (3) fiscal years of the Company preceding the fiscal year of the Company in which Executive’s Effective Date of Termination occurs. If Executive has less than three (3) years of annual bonus participation preceding the fiscal year of the Company in which Executive’s Effective Date of Termination occurs, then Executive’s annual target bonus established under the annual bonus plan in which Executive is then participating for the fiscal year of the Company in which Executive’s Effective Date of Termination occurs shall be used for each fiscal year that Executive did not participate in the annual bonus plan, up to a maximum of three (3) years, to calculate the three (3) year average bonus payment. (i) Upon the consummation of the Change in Control, with respect to Executive’s equity-based long-term incentive awards that are outstanding on the Effective Date, immediate full vesting and lapse of all restrictions on any and all such awards (including but not limited to stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards) held by Executive, and any performance conditions applicable to any such awards shall be deemed satisfied at target performance without proration. This provision shall override any conflicting language contained in Executive’s respective award agreements outstanding on the Effective Date and such award agreements are hereby deemed amended. (ii) Upon the consummation of the Change in Control, with respect to Executive’s equity-based long-term incentive awards that are granted to Executive after the Effective Date, immediate full vesting and lapse of all restrictions on any and all such awards (including but not limited to stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards) held by Executive and any performance conditions applicable to any such awards shall be deemed satisfied at target performance without proration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Replacement Award (as defined below) is provided to Executive to replace any then outstanding award (“Replaced Award”) in connection with the Change in Control, the Replaced Award held by Executive shall not become immediately vested and nonforfeitable.
ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS The Executive shall receive the following additional compensation and welfare and fringe benefits:
