Termination of Employment by the Company During the Term, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment at any time with or without Cause (as defined below) pursuant to the Notice of Termination provision below.
Employment by the Company Executive agrees to be employed by the Company during the Term upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Executive shall serve as an executive of the Company and shall have such duties as may be prescribed by the Company and shall serve in such other and/or additional position(s) as the Company may determine from time to time.
Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause (i) Nothing herein shall prevent the Company from terminating Employee’s Employment for Cause (as hereinafter defined). From and after the Date of Termination, Employee shall no longer be entitled to receive Base Salary and Bonus Compensation and the Company shall no longer be required to pay premiums on any life insurance or disability policy for Employee. Any rights and benefits which Employee may have in respect of any other compensation or any employee benefit plans or programs of the Company, whether pursuant to Section 4(c) or otherwise, shall be determined in accordance with the terms of such other compensation arrangements or plans or programs. The term “Cause,” as used herein, shall mean: (A) Employee’s conviction, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony; (B) Employee’s engaging in willful misconduct that is economically injurious to the Company (including, but not limited to, a willful violation of Sections 10 or 11 of this Agreement or the embezzlement of funds or misappropriation of other property of the Company or any subsidiary); or (C) Employee shall breach this Agreement in a material manner or engage in fraudulent conduct as regards the Company which results either in personal enrichment to Employee or material injury to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstances shall Employee’s refusal or unwillingness to make any of the certifications required of him as Chief Executive Officer of the Company pursuant to Section 302 or Section 906 of the Sxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, or any similar requirements of any federal, state, local or foreign governmental authority or agency, or of any national securities exchange or quotation system on which any class or series of the Company’s capital stock is then traded or listed for quotation, constitute or give rise to a basis for termination for “Cause.”
(ii) The Company shall provide Employee with Notice of Termination stating that it intends to terminate Employee’s Employment for Cause under this Section 8(c) and specifying the particular act or acts on the basis of which the Board intends to terminate Employee’s Employment. Employee shall then be given the opportunity, within 15 days of his receipt of such notice, to have a meeting with the Board to discuss such act or acts (other than with respect to an action described in Sections 8(c)(i)(A) or (B) above as to which the Board may immediately terminate Employee’s Employment for Cause). Other than with respect to an action described in Sections 8(c)(i)(A) or (B) above, Employee shall be given seven days after his meeting with the Board to take reasonable steps to cease or correct the performance (or nonperformance) giving rise to such Notice of Termination. In the event the Board determines that Employee has failed within such seven-day period to take reasonable steps to cease or correct such performance (or nonperformance), Employee shall be given the opportunity, within 10 days of his receipt of written notice to such effect, to have a meeting with the Board to discuss such determination. Following that meeting, if the Board believes that Employee has failed to take reasonable steps to cease or correct his performance (or nonperformance) as above described, the Board may thereupon terminate the Employment of Employee for Cause.
Term of Employment (a) The Corporation hereby employs Employee, and Employee hereby accepts continued employment with the Corporation, for a period continuing from the first date above until terminated as provided in this Section (1) or Section (5).
(b) Either the Corporation or Employee may terminate Employee’s employment at any time for any reason, or no reason, by giving written notice to the other party stating its or his election to terminate the employment of Employee under this Employment Agreement and an effective date of termination which is at least thirty (30) days after the date of receipt by the other party of such notice; provided, however, that the employment of Employee under this Employment Agreement is subject to prior termination as hereinafter provided in Section (5)(b) and (c). Notwithstanding the above, the Corporation shall be entitled, at its sole discretion, to waive the obligation of Employee to continue to actively work during the 30 day notice period. In the event the Corporation elects at any time to waive the obligation of Employee to actively work during the 30 day notice period, the Corporation shall continue to pay Employee his customary Base Salary (as defined in Section (4)) and will reimburse Employee through the balance of the 30 day notice period for the premiums (if any) Employee pays for continuation of life insurance should Employee elect to exercise the conversion feature (if any) of the Corporation’s group life policy then in effect and for the premiums (if any) for such medical/dental insurance as Employee may then receive should Employee elect continuation under the federal COBRA program.
(c) Employee may terminate employment by delivering notice of resignation no later than thirty (30) days prior to the intended date of termination of employment (“Resignation Date”); provided, however, that the Corporation may at any time and for any reason, or no reason, accelerate the Resignation Date to any date prior thereto up to and including the date Employee delivers such notice of resignation, and such acceleration shall not, in any event, be deemed a termination by Corporation of Employee’s employment. Unless the employment is terminated pursuant to Section (5), the Corporation shall, if it terminates the employment prior to the Resignation Date, continue to pay Employee his customary Base Salary (as defined in Section (4)) and will reimburse Employee through the balance of the 30 day notice period for the premiums (if any) Employee pays for continuation of life insurance should Employee elect to exercise the conversion feature (if any) of the Corporation’s group life policy then in effect and for the premiums (if any) for such medical/dental insurance as Employee may then receive should the Employee elect continuation under the federal COBRA program.
Term of Employment and 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 (subject to the notice requirements of this Section 4). This "at-will" nature of Executive's employment shall remain unchanged during Executive's tenure as an employee and may not be changed, except in an express writing signed by Executive and a duly authorized officer of the Company. The term of this Agreement and Executive’s employment hereunder shall commence on the Effective Date and continue until terminated as set forth in this Section 4. The date on which Executive’s employment terminates, as determined by the Company, regardless of the reason, shall be referred to herein as the “Separation Date.” Upon termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices and directorships, if any, then held with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
Termination of Employment by Death The Employee's Employment will terminate automatically at the time of his death. If the Employee's Employment terminates by reason of the Employee's death, the Company will pay to the Person the Employee has designated in a written notice delivered to the Company as his beneficiary entitled to that payment, if any, or to the Employee's estate, as applicable, in a cash lump sum within 30 days after the Termination Date, the amount equal to the sum of (i) the portion of the Base Salary through the end of the month in which the Termination Date occurs which has not yet been paid, (ii) all compensation the Employee has previously deferred (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) which has not yet been paid, (iii) any accrued but unpaid vacation pay (if the Employee dies while on Active Status) and (iv) (A) if the Employee dies while on Active Status or during the Part-time Employment Period (other than during the last 12 months of the Part-time Employment Period), an amount equal to the Base Salary being paid for the Compensation Year in which he dies or (B) if the Employee dies during the last 12 months of the Part-time Employment Period, the product of (1) one-twelfth of the Base Salary being paid for the Compensation Year in which the Employee dies multiplied by (2) the number of whole and partial calendar months in the period beginning with the first calendar month after the calendar month in which he dies and ending with the last calendar month in which the Termination Date would have occurred if the Employee's Employment were to have continued to the end of the Part-time Employment Period. For purposes of this Section 5(d), if the anniversary of the Effective Date in the Compensation Year in which the Employee dies has not occurred on or before the Termination Date, the Base Salary for that Compensation Year will be calculated on the assumption that no increase in the amount thereof would be made effective as of that anniversary pursuant to Section 4(a) or 5(e)(i), as applicable.
