Change in Control Agreements Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company and the Executive have executed and delivered a Change In Control Agreement ("C-I-C Agreement"), which applies under the circumstances and during the period described therein. If circumstances arise which cause both the C-I-C Agreement and this Agreement to apply to the Company and the Executive, then, to the extent of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the C-I-C Agreement, the terms of the C-I-C Agreement alone shall apply. However, if the C-I-C Agreement does not apply (as, for example, if there is no Change in Control as described therein, or the C-I-C Agreement has expired, or the C-I-C Agreement simply does not apply), then the provisions of this Agreement shall control and be unaffected by the C-I-C Agreement.
Amendments to Employment Agreement Effective as of the date hereof, the Employment Agreement shall be amended as provided in this Section 1.
Modification of Agreement This Agreement may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated, and any terms or conditions may be waived, but only by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

Other Severance Arrangements This Agreement supersedes any and all cash severance arrangements on change in control under any prior separation, severance and salary continuation arrangements, programs and plans which were previously offered by the Company to the Executive, including change in control severance arrangements pursuant to an employment agreement or offer letter. In no event shall any individual receive cash severance benefits under both this Agreement and any other severance pay or salary continuation program, plan or other arrangement with the Company.
No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements Nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude the Company or any Related Entity from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation plans, agreements or arrangements, and any such plans, agreements and arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases or to specific persons.
