For Good Reason If terminated by Executive for Good Reason, upon written notice by Executive to Company that Executive is terminating Executive’s employment for Good Reason and that sets forth the factual basis supporting the Good Reason, which termination shall be effective 30 days after the date of such notice, or such earlier date as specified in writing by the Company in its sole discretion during such 30-day period. For the avoidance of doubt, such termination shall not constitute a termination for Good Reason if Company cures the conditions identified in Executive’s notice as provided in Section 3(d)(iii).
Voluntary Termination for Good Reason “Voluntary Termination for Good Reason” shall mean the Employee voluntarily resigns after the occurrence of any of the following (i) without the Employee’s express written consent, a material reduction of the Employee’s duties, title, authority or responsibilities, relative to the Employee’s duties, title, authority or responsibilities as in effect immediately prior to such reduction, or the assignment to Employee of such reduced duties, title, authority or responsibilities; provided, however, that a reduction in duties, title, authority or responsibilities solely by virtue of the Company being acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example, when the Senior Vice-President of a business unit of the Company remains as such following a Change of Control) shall not by itself constitute grounds for a “Voluntary Termination for Good Reason;” (ii) without the Employee’s express written consent, a material 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) a reduction by the Company in the base salary of the Employee as in effect immediately prior to such reduction; (iv) a material reduction by the Company in the aggregate level of employee benefits, including bonuses, to which the Employee was entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the result that the Employee’s aggregate benefits package is materially reduced (other than a reduction that generally applies to Company employees); (v) the relocation of the Employee to a facility or a location more than thirty-five (35) miles from the Employee’s then present location, without the Employee’s express written consent; (vi) the failure of the Company to obtain the assumption of this agreement by any successors contemplated in Section 7(a) below; or (vii) any act or set of facts or circumstances which would, under California case law or statute constitute a constructive termination of the Employee.
By Employee for Good Reason Subject to compliance with the notice and opportunity for cure requirements set forth at the end of this Section 5(c), Employee may terminate [his/her] employment under this Agreement for “Good Reason” if any of the following circumstances occurs during the Retention Period without Employee’s express written consent: (i) a reduction in Employee’s base annual salary from that provided immediately before the Change in Control Date; (ii) a failure by Nordson to make available to Employee compensation plans, employee pension plans, and employee welfare benefit plans (collectively, “Plans”) and other benefits and perquisites that provide opportunities to receive overall compensation and benefits and perquisites at least equal to the opportunities for overall compensation and benefits and perquisites that were available to Employee immediately before the Change in Control Date; (iii) a change in the location of Employee’s principal place of employment by more than 50 miles from the location where Employee was principally employed immediately before the Change in Control Date; (iv) a significant increase in the frequency or duration of Employee’s business travel; or (v) a material and adverse change in the authorities, powers, functions, or duties attached to Employee’s position from those authorities, powers, functions, and duties as they existed immediately before the Change in Control Date (but a change in the office or officer to whom Employee reports will not, in itself, be deemed to be a material adverse change in Employee’s authorities, powers, functions, or duties for these purposes). Employee may give notice of termination for Good Reason based on any particular circumstance described in any of (i) through (v) of this Section 5(c) only if Employee gives notice of that intention (and of the particular circumstance on which the notice is based) not later than 90 days after Employee becomes aware of the existence of that particular circumstance. Any notice by Employee of termination for Good Reason must specify a date, not earlier than 30 days after the date on which the notice is given, that Employee proposes as [his/her] Employment Termination Date. If Nordson cures the circumstance identified by Employee in [his/her] notice before the proposed Employment Termination Date, Employee will not be entitled to terminate for Good Reason based upon the cured circumstance and Employee’s notice will be deemed rescinded. If Nordson fails to so cure before the proposed Employment Termination Date, Employee’s employment will terminate for Good Reason effective on that date.

Good Reason; Other Than for Cause, Death or Disability If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason: (i) the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination the aggregate of the following amounts: A. the sum of (1) the Executive's Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid, (2) the product of (x) the higher of (I) the Recent Annual Bonus and (II) the Annual Bonus paid or payable, including any bonus or portion thereof which has been earned but deferred (and annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than twelve full months or during which the Executive was employed for less than twelve full months), for the most recently completed fiscal year during the Employment Period, if any (such higher amount being referred to as the "Highest Annual Bonus") and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is 365 and (3) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), and (3) shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Accrued Obligations"); and B. the amount equal to the product of (1) three and (2) the sum of (x) the Executive's Annual Base Salary and (y) the Highest Annual Bonus; and C. an amount equal to the excess of (a) the actuarial equivalent of the benefit under the Company's Pension Plan for Non-Bargaining Unit Employees and/or any other Company-sponsored qualified defined benefit retirement plan in which the Executive participates (collectively, the "Retirement Plan") (utilizing actuarial assumptions no less favorable to the Executive than those in effect under the Company's Retirement Plan immediately prior to the Effective Date), and the Company's Supplemental Income Security Plan and/or any other Company-sponsored excess or supplemental defined benefit retirement plan in which the Executive participates (collectively, the "SISP") which the Executive would receive if the Executive's employment continued for three years after the Date of Termination assuming for this purpose that all accrued benefits are fully vested, and, assuming that the Executive's compensation in each of the three years is that required by Section 4(b)(i) and Section 4(b)(ii), over (b) the actuarial equivalent of the Executive's actual benefit (paid or payable), if any, under the Retirement Plan and the SISP as of the Date of Termination; (ii) for three years after the Executive's Date of Termination, or such longer period as may be provided by the terms of the appropriate plan, program, practice or policy, the Company shall continue benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in Section 4(b)(iv) of this Agreement if the Executive's employment had not been terminated or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies and their families, provided, however, that if the Executive becomes reemployed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of eligibility. For purposes of determining eligibility (but not the time of commencement of benefits) of the Executive for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices, programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have remained employed until three years after the Date of Termination and to have retired on the last day of such period; (iii) the Company shall, at its sole expense as incurred, provide the Executive with outplacement services the scope and provider of which shall be selected by the Executive in his sole discretion; and (iv) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any 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 affiliated companies (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Other Benefits").

Voluntary Termination Without Good Reason The Executive may terminate his employment without Good Reason at any time during the Term of Employment, provided he gives at least thirty (30) days' advance written notice. If the Executive terminates his employment with Holding or the Company without Good Reason (and not because of his death or due to Disability), the Executive shall have the same entitlements hereunder as provided in Section 9(c) in the case of a termination by Holding or the Company for Cause.
Termination by Employee for Good Reason Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for "Good Reason." As used herein, "Good Reason" shall mean the continuance of any of the following after ten (10) days' prior written notice by Employee to the Company, specifying the basis for such Employee's having Good Reason to terminate this Agreement:
Good Reason; Other Than for Cause or Disability If, during the Employment Period, the Company terminates the Executive's employment other than for Cause or Disability or the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason: (i) the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination the aggregate of the following amounts (such aggregate being hereinafter referred to as the "Special Termination Amount"): A. the sum of (1) the Executive's Annual Base Salary through the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid, (2) the product of (x) the Highest Annual Bonus and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the current fiscal year through the Date of Termination, and the denominator of which is 365 and (3) any compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) (including, without limitation, compensation, bonus, incentive compensation or awards deferred under the FPL Group, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan or incentive compensation or awards deferred under the FPL Group, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan of 1985, the FPL Group, Inc. Long Term Incentive Plan of 1994, or pursuant to an individual deferral agreement) and any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1), (2), and (3) being herein called the "Accrued Obligations"); and B. the amount equal to the product of (1) the greater of two or the number of years (with any partial year expressed as a fraction) remaining in the Employment Period and (2) the sum of (x) the Executive's Annual Base Salary and (y) the Highest Annual Bonus; provided, however, that such amount shall be paid in lieu of, and the Executive hereby waives the right to receive, 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 plan, policy or arrangement of the Company; and C. the maximum amount payable under all performance share grants and all other long term incentive compensation grants to the Executive, calculated as though the Executive had remained employed by the Company for the remainder of the Employment Period and on the basis of actual achievement of performance measures through the end of the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs and thereafter assuming 100% achievement of all performance measures through the end of the Employment Period; and D. a separate lump-sum supplemental retirement benefit equal to the difference between (1) the actuarial equivalent (utilizing for this purpose the actuarial assumptions utilized with respect to the FPL Group Employee Pension Plan (or any successor plan thereto) (the "Retirement Plan") during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date) of the benefit payable under the Retirement Plan and all supplemental and/or excess retirement plans providing benefits for the Executive (the "SERP") (including, but not limited to the Supplemental Pension Benefit (as defined in the FPL Group, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan)) which the Executive would receive if the Executive's employment continued at the compensation level provided for in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of this Agreement for the remainder of the Employment Period, assuming for this purpose that all accrued benefits are fully vested and that benefit accrual formulas are no less advantageous to the Executive than those in effect during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date, or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter during the Employment Period with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies, and (2) the actuarial equivalent (utilizing for this purpose the actuarial assumptions utilized with respect to the Retirement Plan during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date) of the Executive's actual benefit (paid or payable), if any, under the Retirement Plan and the SERP; and E. a separate lump-sum supplemental retirement benefit equal to the difference between (1) the value of the Company Account (as defined in the FPL Group Employee Thrift Plan or any successor plan thereto) (the "Thrift Plan") and any other matching contribution accounts (including, but not limited to the Supplemental Matching Contribution Account (as defined in the FPL Group, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan)) under a SERP which the Executive would receive if (i) the Executive s employment continued at the compensation level provided for in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of this Agreement for the remainder of the Employment Period, (ii) the Executive made pre- and after-tax contributions at the highest permissible rate (disregarding any limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which may or may not be set forth in the Thrift Plan) for each year remaining in the Employment Period, (iii) the Company Account and the matching contribution accounts are fully vested, and (iv) the matching contribution formulas are no less advantageous to the Executive than those in effect during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time during the remainder of the Employment Period with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies, and (2) the actual value of the Executive s Company Account and matching contribution accounts (paid or payable), if any, under the Thrift Plan and the SERP; and (ii) for the remainder of the Employment Period, or such longer period as any plan, program, practice or policy may provide, the Company shall continue benefits to the Executive and/or the Executive's family at least equal to those which would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies described in Sections 5(e) and 5(g) of this Agreement if the Executive's employment had not been terminated, in accordance with the most favorable plans, practices, programs or policies of the Company and its affiliated companies applicable generally to other peer executives and their families during the 90-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, as in effect generally at any time thereafter with respect to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies and their families, provided, however, that if the Executive becomes reemployed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described herein shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of eligibility. For purposes of determining eligibility of the Executive for retiree benefits pursuant to such plans, practices, programs and policies, the Executive shall be considered to have remained employed until the end of the Employment Period and to have retired on the last day of such period; and (iii) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company and its affiliated companies (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Other Benefits"), but excluding solely for purposes of this Section 7(a)(iii) amounts waived by the Executive pursuant to Section 7(a)(i)(B).
