Termination Apart from Change of Control In the event the Employee’s employment is terminated for any reason, either prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control or after the twelve (12) month period following a Change of Control, then the Employee shall be entitled to receive severance and any other benefits only as may then be established under the Company’s (or any subsidiary’s) then existing severance and benefits plans or pursuant to other written agreements with the Company.
Interim Changes Since the date of its balance sheets, except as set forth in Exhibit C, there have been no (1) changes in financial condition, assets, liabilities or business of Amalgamated which, in the aggregate, have been materially adverse; (2) damages, destruction or losses of or to property of Amalgamated, payments of any dividend or other distribution in respect of any class of stock of Amalgamated, or any direct or indirect redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any class of any such stock; or (3) increases paid or agreed to in the compensation, retirement benefits or other commitments to its employees.
Termination for Change of Control This Agreement may be terminated immediately by SAP upon written notice to Provider if Provider comes under direct or indirect control of any entity competing with SAP. If before such change Provider has informed SAP of such potential change of control without undue delay, the Parties agree to discuss solutions on how to mitigate such termination impact on Customer, such as stepping into the Customer contract by SAP or by any other Affiliate of Provider or any other form of transition to a third party provider.
Termination Apart from a Change of Control If the Employee's employment with the Company terminates other than as a result of an Involuntary Termination within the twelve (12) months following a Change of Control, then the Employee shall not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits hereunder, but may be eligible for those benefits (if any) as may then be established under the Company's then existing severance and benefits plans and policies at the time of such termination.
No Change of Control The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary irrevocable waivers, adopt any required amendments and make all appropriate determinations so that the issuance of the Shares to the Purchasers will not trigger a “change of control” or other similar provision in any of the agreements to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, including without limitation any employment, “change in control,” severance or other agreements and any benefit plan, which results in payments to the counterparty or the acceleration of vesting of benefits.
Change of Control Transaction If the Company or its successor terminates the Employment upon a merger, consolidation, or transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company with or to any other individual(s) or entity (the “Change of Control Transaction”), the Executive shall be entitled to the following severance payments and benefits upon such termination: (1) a lump sum cash payment equal to 12 months of the Executive’s base salary at a rate equal to the greater of his/her annual salary in effect immediate1y prior to the termination, or his/her then current annua1 salary as of the date of such termination; (2) a lump sum cash payment equal to a pro-rated amount of his/her target annual bonus for the year immediately preceding the termination; and (3) immediate vesting of 100% of the then-unvested portion of any outstanding equity awards held by the Executive.
Major Change For a major change referred to in paragraph (1)(a):
Upon a Change of Control Upon a Change of Control (as defined in Section 6 hereof) the following shall occur:
(i) at the time of the consummation of such Change of Control, 25% of any then unvested stock options held by you at such time that were granted on or prior to the Amendment Date shall vest as of the date of the consummation of such Change of Control (notwithstanding any contrary provision in any agreement evidencing such stock options) with such vesting reducing the number of shares subject to such stock options that would otherwise vest on each subsequent vesting date by 25%.
(ii) if, within one year following the date of the consummation of such Change of Control, the Company or any successor thereto terminates your employment other than for Cause, or you terminate your employment for Good Reason, then, in lieu of any payments to you or on your behalf under Section 5(a) hereof, (A) the Company shall pay to you a lump sum payment equal to the sum of (x) your then-current annual base salary plus (y) your target bonus amount for the year in which such termination occurs, which amount shall be paid to you as provided in Section 5(f) below; (B) 100% of any then unvested equity and equity-based awards, including, but not limited to, stock options, held by you at the time of such termination shall fully vest, effective upon the date of such termination (notwithstanding any contrary provision in any agreement evidencing such equity or equity-based awards); and (C) if you are participating in the Company’s group health plan and/or dental plan at the time your employment terminates pursuant to this Section 5(c)(ii) and you exercise your right to continue participation in those plans under COBRA, the Company will pay or, at its option, reimburse you, on a monthly basis, for the full monthly premium cost of that participation for the 12 months following the date on which your employment with the Company terminates or, if earlier, until the date you become eligible to enroll in the health (and/or, if applicable, dental) plan of a new employer, it being understood that, to the extent that the payment of the base salary contemplated by clause (A)(x) of this Section 5(c)(ii) in a lump sum would result in adverse tax consequences under Section 409A, such payment shall instead be paid at the same time and in the same form as provided in Section 5(a)(i)(A) hereof.
