Termination by the Corporation If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Corporation upon the giving of written notice of such termination to the Executive at any time within the 6 month period following a Change of Control (other than for Just Cause, Disability or Death), then the Executive shall be entitled to the following: i. such payments on account of severance as provided for under Section 12(b) of this Agreement; and ii. notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12 hereof or in this Agreement, all options granted by the Corporation to the Executive shall, following the giving of any notice by the Corporation under this Section 14(a), be deemed to vest immediately and shall be exercisable by the Executive for a period of 90 days following the giving of such notice by the Corporation hereunder.
Termination by the Company This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger Transactions abandoned at any time before the Acceptance Time by the Company: (a) in order to enter into an Acquisition Agreement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.3(c), so long as concurrently with such termination the Company pays the Expense Reimbursement under Section 7.6(b)(i); (b) if Parent or Merger Sub breaches any of their respective representations or warranties, or fails to perform any of their respective covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, and which breach or failure (i) would, individually or when aggregated with any such other breaches of failures, result in a Parent Material Adverse Effect and (ii) by its nature cannot be cured or has not been cured by Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, by the earlier of (A) the Outside Date and (B) the date that is twenty (20) Business Days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of written notice of such breach from the Company, but only so long as the Company is not then in material breach of its representations or warranties or materially failing to perform its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement in a manner that would allow Parent to terminate this Agreement under Section 7.3(b); or (c) upon prior written notice to Parent, if Xxxxxx Sub fails to commence the Offer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement hereof on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) Business Day following the date hereof or if Merger Sub fails to consummate the Offer when required to do so in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.4(c) shall not be available to the Company if the Company is in breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement that has been the proximate cause of, or resulted in, Merger Sub’s failure to commence or consummate the Offer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Other Termination by the Company If the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause before this Agreement terminates, or Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason (defined below) before this Agreement terminates, the Company will pay Executive a payment having a present value equal to the compensation and other benefits he would have been entitled to for the remainder of the term if his employment had not terminated. All payments made pursuant to this Section 9(b) shall be completed no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s employment terminates.
By the Company Without Cause During the Term, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause at any time. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause following the initial Public Offering then, in addition to paying Executive the Final Compensation and subject to Executive’s compliance with Article 7 in all material respects, the Company shall: (a) continue to pay Executive the Base Salary at the rate in effect on the Termination Date during the Restricted Period, with the first payment being on the Company’s next regular payroll period which is at least eight (8) business days following the effective date of the Release (defined below) (provided that if the 60-day time period for the Release begins in one taxable year and ends in a subsequent taxable year, the first payment shall be paid in the subsequent taxable year (for example, if Executive terminates on December 1, then the first payment shall not be paid until on or after January 1 of the next year, regardless of when the Release is returned)); (b) continue Executive’s health insurance benefits for the Restricted Period (at a cost no less favorable than that paid by Executive immediately prior to the Termination Date) or the economic equivalent thereto if such continuation is not permissible under the terms of the Company’s health insurance plan or would otherwise expose the Company to tax or other penalties; and (c) pay Executive an amount equal to the pro rata amount of the Bonus Executive would have earned for the year in which the termination occurred, based on the Company’s performance for the entire fiscal year in which the termination occurred relative to the performance measurements that were pending at the time of termination and to be used to determine Executive’s bonus for such year. Any such prorated Bonus shall be payable at such time or times as bonuses are payable to the other executives of the Company (the benefits, which the parties acknowledge are not required by law, outlined in Section(s) 5.4(a), (b) and (c) are collectively referenced as the “Severance”). Any obligation of the Company to provide Executive the Severance is conditioned on Executive signing, delivering to the Company and not revoking a release, in a form acceptable to the Company (the “Release”), within sixty (60) days of his Termination Date, which Release in any event will require Executive to reaffirm his obligations and commitments to the Company under Section 7 of this Agreement.
