Payments Upon Termination A. Upon termination of the Executive's employment hereunder, the Company shall be obligated to pay and the Executive shall be entitled to receive, on the pay date for the pay period in which the termination occurs, all accrued and unpaid Base Salary to the date of termination. In addition, the Executive shall be entitled to any benefits to which he is entitled under the terms of any applicable employee benefit plan or program or applicable law.
B. Except as provided in Section 7(A), upon termination of the Executive's employment by the Company without Cause or by the Executive due to Good Reason, in addition to the amount set forth in Section 6(A), the Company shall be obligated to pay, and the Executive shall be entitled to receive, (i) Base Salary for a period of three years and (ii) continued medical and dental benefits for a period of three years at no cost to the Executive. The Company may cease all payments of Base Salary and bonus under this Section 6(B) in the event of a willful breach by the Executive of the provisions of Sections 8, 9 or 10 of this Agreement or any inadvertent breach that continues after notice given to the Executive by the Company. As a condition precedent to the receipt of any of the severance benefits hereunder the Executive hereby agrees to execute a release of claims against the Company and its affiliates in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
C. In the event Executive elects to terminate employment as set forth in Section 5(F) then in such event any options not vested as set forth in Section 3(B) shall terminate.
D. Upon any termination or expiration of the Executive's employment hereunder pursuant to Section 5, the Executive shall have no further liability or obligation under or in connection with this Agreement; provided, however, that the Executive shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Sections 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 hereof (it being understood and agreed that such provisions shall survive any termination or expiration of the Executive's employment hereunder for any reason). Upon any Voluntary Termination by the Executive (other than a resignation by the Executive for Good Reason), or expiration of Executive's employment agreement, the Company shall have no further liability under or in connection with this Agreement, except to pay the portion of the Executive's Base Salary earned or accrued at the date of termination.
Qualifying Termination If, prior to Executive’s attainment of age 65, Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company without Cause (and other than due to his Disability) or is voluntarily terminated by Executive for Good Reason, in either case only during the period commencing on the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company and ending on the second anniversary of date of the Change in Control (“Protection Period”), then the Company shall pay or provide Executive with:
(i) Executive’s Accrued Obligations, payable in accordance with Section 8(a)(i);
(ii) Any unpaid annual cash incentive award earned with respect to any fiscal year ending on or preceding the date of termination, payable when awards are paid generally to senior executives for such year;
(iii) A pro-rated annual cash incentive for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs, the amount of which shall be based on target performance and a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed during the performance year through the date of termination and the denominator of which is 365, which pro-rated annual cash incentive award shall be paid when awards are paid generally to senior executives for such year;
(iv) A lump sum severance payment in the aggregate amount equal to the product of (A) the sum of (1) Executive’s highest Base Salary during the Protection Period plus (2) his annual target annual cash incentive award multiplied by (B) two (2); provided, unless the Change of Control occurring on or preceding such termination also meets the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (or any successor provision) thereunder (a “409A Change in Control”), the amount payable to Executive under this subparagraph (iv) shall be paid to Executive in equal semi-monthly payroll installments over a period of twenty-four (24) months, not in a lump sum, to the extent necessary to avoid the application of Section 409A(a)(1)(A) and (B);
(v) Subject to Executive’s continued co-payment of premiums, continued participation for two (2) years in the Company’s medical benefits plan which covers Executive and his eligible dependents upon the same terms and conditions (except for the requirements of Executive’s continued employment) in effect for active employees of the Company. In the event Executive obtains other employment that offers substantially similar or more favorable medical benefits, such continuation of coverage by the Company under this subsection shall immediately cease. The continuation of health benefits under this subsection shall reduce the period of coverage and count against Executive’s right to healthcare continuation benefits under COBRA; and
(vi) Payments falling under Section 10(b)iv shall, if to be paid in a lump sum pursuant to such section, be paid within ten (10) business days after the Executive’s termination of employment. Provided, to the extent applicable under Section 409A as a “deferral of compensation,” and not as a “short-term deferral” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), the payments and benefits payable to Executive under this Section 10(b) shall be subject to the Safe Harbor and Postponement provided at Section 8(c)(iv).
Payments Upon Termination of Employment (a) If during the Termination Period the employment of the Executive shall terminate, other than by reason of a Nonqualifying Termination, then the Company shall pay to the Executive (or the Executive's beneficiary or estate) within 30 days following the Date of Termination, as compensation for services rendered to the Company:
(1) a cash amount equal to the sum of (i) the Executive's full annual base salary from the Company through the Date of Termination, to the extent not theretofore paid, (ii) the Executive's annual bonus in an amount at least equal to the highest annualized (for any fiscal year consisting of less than 12 full months or with respect to which the Executive has been employed by the Company for less than 12 full months) bonus paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral, to the Executive by the Company in respect of the three fiscal years of the Company (or such portion thereof during which the Executive performed services for the Company if the Executive shall have been employed by the Company for less than such three fiscal year period) immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is 365 or 366, as applicable, and (iii) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any interest and earnings thereon) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid; plus
(2) a lump-sum cash amount (subject to any applicable payroll or other taxes required to be withheld pursuant to Section 5) in an amount equal to (i) the Executive's highest annual base salary from the Company in effect during the 12-month period prior to the Date of Termination, plus (ii) the Executive's highest annualized (for any fiscal year consisting of less than 12 full months or with respect to which the Executive has been employed by the Company for less than 12 full months) bonus, paid or payable, including by reason of any deferral, to the Executive by the Company in respect of the five fiscal years of the Company (or such portion thereof during which the Executive performed services for the Company if the Executive shall have been employed by the Company for less than such five fiscal year period) immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the Change in Control occurs, provided, that any amount paid pursuant to this Section 3(a)(2) shall be paid in lieu of any other amount of severance relating to salary or bonus continuation to be received by the Executive upon termination of employment of the Executive under any severance agreement, plan, policy or arrangement of the Company.
(b) For a period of eighteen months commencing on the Date of Termination, the Company shall continue to keep in full force and effect all policies of medical, accident, disability and life insurance with respect to the Executive and his dependents with the same level of coverage, upon the same terms and otherwise to the same extent as such policies shall have been in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination and the Company shall pay all costs of the continuation of such insurance coverage.
(c) For a period of twelve months commencing on the Date of Termination, the Executive shall receive outplacement assistance services from an outplacement agency selected by the Executive and the Company shall pay all costs of such services; provided that such costs shall not exceed $15,000 in the aggregate.
(d) If during the Termination Period the employment of the Executive shall terminate by reason of a Nonqualifying Termination, then the Company shall pay to the Executive within 30 days following the Date of Termination, a cash amount equal to the sum of:
(1) the Executive's full annual base salary from the Company through the Date of Termination, to the extent not theretofore paid, and
(2) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any interest and earnings thereon) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid.
