At-Will Employment; Termination The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and shall continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law, and that Executive’s employment with the Company may be terminated by either party at any time for any or no reason, with or without notice. If Executive’s employment terminates for any reason, Executive shall not be entitled to any payments, benefits, damages, awards or compensation other than as provided in this Agreement. Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be terminated immediately on the death of Executive.
Involuntary Termination “Involuntary Termination” shall mean (i) without the Employee’s express written consent, the significant reduction of the Employee’s duties or responsibilities relative to the Employee’s duties or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction; provided, however, that a reduction in duties or responsibilities solely by virtue of the Company being acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example, when the Chief Financial Officer of Company remains as such following a Change of Control and is not made the Chief Financial Officer of the acquiring corporation) shall not constitute an “Involuntary Termination”; (ii) without the Employee’s express written consent, a substantial reduction, without good business reasons, of the facilities and perquisites (including office space and location) available to the Employee immediately prior to such reduction; (iii) without the Employee’s express written consent, a material reduction by the Company in the Base Compensation or Target Incentive of the Employee as in effect immediately prior to such reduction, or the ineligibility of the Employee to continue to participate in any long-term incentive plan of the Company; (iv) a material reduction by the Company in the kind or level of employee benefits to which the Employee is entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that the Employee’s overall benefits package is significantly reduced; (v) the relocation of the Employee to a facility or a location more than 50 miles from the Employee’s then present location, without the Employee’s express written consent; (vi) any purported termination of the Employee by the Company which is not effected for death or Disability or for Cause; or (vii) the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption of this agreement by any successors contemplated in Section 10 below.
Termination of Employment Without Cause At any time during the Term of Employment under this Agreement, either Arrow or the Bank may effect, pursuant to this Paragraph 7(b), and in accordance with the requirements set forth in Paragraph 11(gg) below, a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause, provided, however, that any attempt to do so under circumstances that would also qualify such Termination of Employment as a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause under Paragraph 6(a) of this Agreement, that is, as a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause following a Change in Control that meets the conditions set forth in Paragraph 6(a), will be deemed a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause under Paragraph 6(a), and not a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause under this Paragraph 7(b). In the event of a Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause under this Paragraph 7(b), on the effective date of such Termination of Employment, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions specified below in Section 8, Arrow or the Bank shall pay to the Executive, and the Executive shall be entitled to receive, one (1) lump sum payment in a dollar amount equal to the greater of (i) the total amount of Base Salary payments which would have been payable to the Executive during the period extending from such effective date until the normal expiration date of Employment under this Agreement as in effect at such time, had there been no early Termination of Employment of Executive without Cause (and assuming the Executive otherwise would have remained employed throughout such period and that his Base Salary would have remained unchanged throughout such period), or (ii) an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the current Base Salary of the Executive on the effective date of such Termination of Employment.
Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason If Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 4(d) or by Employee for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(e), Employee shall be entitled to receive, and the Company’s sole obligation to Employee thereafter under this Agreement shall be to pay or provide to Employee, the following:
(i) the Accrued Obligations;
(ii) the Separate Obligations;
(iii) if Employee worked a full calendar year and her employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Employee for Good Reason after the end of such calendar year but prior to the payment of the Incentive Bonus for such calendar year, then Employee shall be entitled to receive the Incentive Bonus, if any, for such calendar year, which shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 4(g)(v) of this Agreement;
(iv) if Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Employee for Good Reason, then Employee shall be entitled to receive a pro-rated Incentive Bonus, if any, for the calendar year during which their employment was terminated, which shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 4(g)(v) of this Agreement; and
(v) subject to Employee’s compliance with Section 5 hereof, payments for the duration of the Restriction Period (as defined in Section 5(c) below) in an annualized amount equal to the Employee’s Base Salary, at the rate in effect immediately prior to the termination of Employee’s employment over the duration of the Restriction Period, the “Severance Payments”). The Severance Payments shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices, commencing on the first regular payroll date on or following such termination of employment and the first payment shall include the cumulative amount of any payments that would have already accrued following the termination of the Employment Period.
Without Cause or for Good Reason If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment without Cause or the Executive shall terminate his employment for Good Reason:
(i) The Executive shall be paid, in a single lump sum payment within 60 days after the Date of Termination, the aggregate amount of (A) the Executive's earned but unpaid Base Salary and accrued vacation pay through the Date of Termination, and any Annual bonus required to be paid to the Executive pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii) above for any fiscal year of the Company that ends on or before the Date of Termination to the extent not previously paid (the "Accrued Obligations"), and (B) two (the "Severance Multiple") times the sum of (x) the annual Base Salary in effect on the Termination Date plus (y) the average Annual Bonus received by the Executive for the three complete fiscal years (or such lesser number of years as the Executive has been employed by the Company) of the Company immediately prior to the Termination Date (the "Severance Amount");
(ii) At the time when annual bonuses are paid to the Company's other senior executives for the fiscal year of the Company in which the Date of Termination occurs, the Executive shall be paid an Annual Bonus in an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Annual Bonus to which the Executive would have been entitled if the Executive's employment had not been terminated, and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such fiscal year (a "Pro-Rated Annual Bonus");
(iii) For a period of years equal to the Severance Multiple, the Company shall continue to provide the Executive and the Executive's eligible family members with group health insurance coverage at least equal to that which would have been provided to them if the Executive's employment had not been terminated; provided, however, that if the Executive becomes re-employed with another employer and is eligible to receive group health insurance coverage under another employer's plans, the Company's obligations under this Section 4(a)(iii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable coverage is actually provided to the Executive and the Executive's eligible family members, and any such coverage shall be reported by the Executive to the Company.
(iv) The Company shall, at its sole expense and on an as-incurred basis, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and provider of which shall be reasonable and consistent with industry practice for similarly situated executives; and
(v) To the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any vested benefits and other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its affiliates (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Other Benefits"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition to the Executive's right to receive the amounts provided for in Sections 4(a)(i)(B) and 4(a)(ii), (iii) and (iv) above that the Executive execute, deliver to the Company and not revoke a release of claims in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
For Cause Termination If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause, Executive shall not be entitled to any further compensation or benefits other than: (i) any accrued but unpaid Base Salary; (ii) any accrued but unused paid time off, (iii) reimbursement for any business expenses properly incurred by Executive prior to the date of termination in accordance with Section 4(b) hereof; and (iv) vested benefits, if any, to which Executive may be entitled under the Company’s employee benefit plans as of the date of termination (collectively, the “Accrued Benefits”). The Accrued Benefits shall in all events be payable on the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll date which occurs at least ten (10) days after the date of termination (other than Base Salary, which shall be payable as provided in Section 3(a) hereof).
Termination for Cause or Voluntary Termination If the Executive’s employment terminates pursuant to Section 6(c) [For Cause] or Section 6
Termination of Employment for Cause If Optionee’s employment with the Bancorp or a subsidiary corporation is terminated for cause, this option shall expire thirty (30) days from the date of such termination. Termination for cause shall include, but not be limited to, termination for malfeasance or gross misfeasance in the performance of duties or conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude, and, in any event, the determination of the Board of Directors with respect thereto shall be final and conclusive.
Involuntary Termination of Employment If the Executive does not exercise his withdrawal rights pursuant to Subsection 2.2, and the Executive's employment with the Bank is involuntarily terminated for any reason, including a termination due to disability of the Executive but excluding termination for Cause, or termination following a Change in Control within thirty-six (36) months of such Change in Control, within thirty (30) days of such involuntary termination of employment, the Bank shall be required to make an immediate lump sum Contribution to the Executive's Retirement Income Trust Fund in an amount equal to: (i) the full Contribution required for the Plan Year in which such involuntary termination occurs, if not yet made, plus (ii) the present value (computed using a discount rate equal to the Interest Factor) of all remaining Contributions to the Retirement Income Trust Fund; provided however, that, if necessary, an additional amount shall be contributed to the Retirement Income Trust Fund which is sufficient to provide the Executive with after tax benefits (assuming a constant tax rate equal to the rate in effect as of the date of the Executive's termination) beginning at his Benefit Age, equal in amount to that benefit which would have been payable to the Executive if no secular trust had been implemented and the benefit obligation had been accrued under APB Opinion No. 12, as amended by FAS 106.
Involuntary Termination Without Cause In the event of the Participant’s involuntary Termination by the Company without Cause, the vested portion of the Option shall remain exercisable until the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days from the date of such Termination, and (ii) the expiration of the stated term of the Option pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof.
