Termination by the Executive The Executive may terminate employment hereunder at any time for any reason, including but not limited to, Good Reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean that the Executive has completed all steps of the Good Reason Process (hereinafter defined) following the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent (each, a “Good Reason Condition”):
Termination of Employment by the Executive During the Term, the Executive may terminate employment with the Company with or without Good Reason (as defined below) by delivering to the Company, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date, a written notice of termination; provided, that, if such termination of employment is by the Executive with Good Reason, such notice shall state in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances that constitute Good Reason. This provision does not change the at-will nature of Executive's employment, and the Company may end Executive's employment, pursuant to Executive's notice, prior to the expiration of the thirty (30) days' notice.
Acceptance of Employment by the Executive The Executive hereby accepts such employment and shall render the services and perform the duties described above.
Termination by the Employee The Employee may terminate his employment under this Agreement at any time upon not less than thirty days prior written notice to the Company. The Company may, however, elect to accelerate the date of termination. In the event of such a termination, the Company shall be required to pay to the Employee:
Voluntary Termination by the Executive Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive may, upon not less than thirty (30) days' written notice to the Company, voluntarily terminate employment for any reason (including retirement under the terms of the Company's retirement plan as in effect from time to time).
Termination by the Employer The Employer may terminate the Employment Period (i) immediately upon the delivery of a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 4.01(d) of this Agreement) by the Employer to the Executive setting forth the facts that indicate that a determination has been made that the Executive has a Disability in accordance with Section 4.02 of this Agreement; (ii) immediately upon delivery of a Notice of Termination by the Employer to the Executive setting forth the facts that indicate that an event constituting Cause (as defined in Section 4.03 of this Agreement) has occurred, or on such later date as may be set forth in such Notice of Termination; or (iii) at any time without Cause effective as of the 30th day following the delivery of a Notice of Termination by the Employer to the Executive, or on such later date as may be set forth in such Notice of Termination.
Termination by the Consultant The Consultant may terminate the provision of his services under this Agreement on not less than 30 days' notice to the Company, in which case the obligations of the Company will be the same as though the services were terminated for cause.
Termination by the Company Without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason During the Term, if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause as provided in Section 3(d), or the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason as provided in Section 3(e), then the Company shall pay the Executive his Accrued Benefit. In addition, subject to the Executive signing a separation agreement containing, among other provisions, a general release of claims in favor of the Company and related persons and entities, confidentiality, return of property and non-disparagement, in a form and manner satisfactory to the Company (the “Separation Agreement and Release”) and the Separation Agreement and Release becoming fully effective, all within the time frame set forth in the Separation Agreement and Release:
Resignation by the Executive Executive may voluntarily resign from his employment with the Company, provided that Executive shall provide the Company with thirty (30) days advance written notice (which notice requirement may be waived, in whole or in part, by the Company in its sole discretion) of his intent to resign. If Executive so terminates his employment with the Company, other than in accordance with Section 4.5, the Company shall have no obligation other than the payment of the Accrued Obligations to the effective date of such termination.
