(i) The Expiration Date;
(ii) Subject to subsections (c) and (d) below, the date which is six (6) months from the date on which the Optionee ceases to act as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company;
(iii) In the event of the termination of the Optionee as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company as a result of a breach of the Optionee’s obligations to the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or as a result of any dishonesty, fraud, misconduct, the unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets, or conviction or confession of a crime punishable by law (except minor violations) (each of which being a termination for “Cause”), the earliest date on which the Optionee is notified by the Company of such termination; and
(iv) The date which is six (6) months from the date of the Optionee’s death or the date the Optionee is determined by the Company to be unable to perform his or her duties as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company as a result of any mental or physical disability that is expected to result in death or that is expected to last for a continuous period of twelve (12) months or more (the “Disability Determination Date”).
(b) The Optionee’s right to exercise any options that have not vested and are not exercisable shall terminate on the earliest of the following dates:
(i) The date the Optionee ceases to act as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company;
(ii) In the case of the termination of the Optionee as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company for Cause, on the earliest date on which the Optionee is notified by the Company of such termination; and

(c) For purposes of this Section 7, the Optionee will be deemed not to have ceased to act as an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company (the “Original Position”) if the Optionee continues to act as an employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in some other capacity immediately upon ceasing to act in the Original Position.
(d) Also notwithstanding the forgoing, if the Optionee dies after he or she ceases to be an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company for reasons other than a termination for Cause or for disability in accordance with the above, the Optionee’s right to exercise any options that have vested and are exercisable on the date the Optionee ceases to be an officer of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall terminate on the earliest of the Expiration Date and the date which is six (6) months after the date of death.

Termination of Options The Options will terminate at the time specified below:
(a) If a Change in Control occurs after the Grant Date but prior to the Grantee’s Separation, all Options that are exercisable at the time of (or become exercisable after) such Change in Control will terminate at the expiration of the Term.
(b) If, in the absence of a Change in Control after the Grant Date, the Grantee’s Separation occurs prior to the Close of Business on December 31, 2020 on account of a termination of the Grantee’s employment or service for Cause, all Options that are not vested and exercisable as of the Close of Business on the date of Separation will terminate at the Close of Business on the date of Separation.
(c) If (i) the Grantee’s Separation occurs after the Close of Business on December 31, 2020, or (ii) the Grantee’s Separation occurs (A) on account of a termination of the Grantee’s employment or service without Cause, (B) on account of a termination of the Grantee’s employment or service by the Grantee with or without Good Reason, or (C) by reason of the death or Disability of the Grantee, all Options that are vested and exercisable as of the Close of Business on the date of Separation after giving effect to the provisions of Sections 3 and 7 above will terminate at the expiration of the Term. In any event in which Options remain exercisable for a period of time following the date of the Grantee’s Separation as provided above, the Options may be exercised during such period of time only to the extent the same were vested and exercisable as provided in Section 3 above on such date of Separation (after giving effect to the application of Section 7 above). Notwithstanding any period of time referenced in this Section 8 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement that may be construed to the contrary, the Options will in any event terminate not later than upon the expiration of the Term.
Special Acceleration of Option (a) In the event of a Change in Control, this option, to the extent outstanding at that time but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate so that this option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control, become exercisable for all of the Option Shares at the time subject to this option and may be exercised for any or all of those Option Shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock. No such acceleration of this option, however, shall occur if and to the extent: (i) this option is, in connection with the Change in Control, assumed or otherwise continued in full force and effect by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control or (ii) this option is replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Change in Control on the Option Shares for which this option is not otherwise at that time exercisable (the excess of the Fair Market Value of those Option Shares over the aggregate Exercise Price payable for such shares) and provides for subsequent pay-out in accordance with the same option exercise schedule set forth in the Grant Notice.
(b) Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise expressly continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control.
(c) If this option is assumed in connection with a Change in Control, then this option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been issuable to Optionee in consummation of such Change in Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.
(d) This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
Term; Termination of Agreement This Agreement shall continue in force for a period of one year from the date hereof, subject to an unlimited number of successive one-year renewals upon mutual consent of the parties. It is the duty of the Independent Directors to evaluate the performance of the Advisor annually before renewing the Agreement, and each such renewal shall be for a term of no more than one year.
Acceleration of Options One hundred (100%) percent of the Executive’s outstanding, unvested options, restricted stock and/or equity awards (“Equity Awards”) shall, immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control, become fully and immediately vested to the extent not already so provided under the terms of such Equity Awards; provided, however, that if the acquirer in a Change in Control grants Equity Awards having (in the reasonable opinion of the Board) a value at least equal to the value of Executive’s then-unvested Company Equity Awards, then 50% of the Executive’s outstanding, unvested Company Equity Awards shall become fully and immediately vested immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control (and the remaining 50% shall terminate upon the consummation of the Change in Control). Notwithstanding any provisions of the stock option plan or stock option agreement pursuant to which any stock options subject to the preceding sentence were granted, the Executive shall be entitled to exercise such Equity Awards until three years from the date of termination of employment or the expiration of the stated period of the Equity Award, whichever period is the shorter.
Early Termination of Option The Option, to the extent not previously exercised, and all other rights in respect thereof, whether vested and exercisable or not, shall terminate and become null and void prior to the Expiration Date in the event of: • the termination of the Participant’s employment or services as provided in Section 5.6 of the Plan, or • the termination of the Option pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Plan.
Term; Termination; Amendment As to each Fund, this Agreement shall become effective and shall run for an initial period as specified for each Fund in Schedule A hereto. This Agreement shall continue in force from year to year after the initial period with respect to each Fund, but only as long as such continuance is specifically approved for each Fund at least annually in the manner required by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; provided, however, that if the continuation of this Agreement is not approved for each Fund, Sub-Adviser may continue to serve in such capacity for each Fund in the manner and to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment and may be terminated at any time without the payment of any penalty by either party on sixty (60) days’ written notice to Sub-Adviser. This Agreement may also be terminated by the Trust with respect to each Fund by action of the Trust’s Board of Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund on sixty (60) days’ written notice to Sub-Adviser by the Trust. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to a Fund at any time without the payment of any penalty by Manager or the Trust’s Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund in the event that it shall have been established by a court of competent jurisdiction that Sub-Adviser or any officer or director of Sub-Adviser has taken any action which results in a breach of the covenants of Sub-Adviser set forth herein. The terms “assignment” and “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” shall have the meanings set forth in the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the right of Sub-Adviser to receive payments on any unpaid balance of the compensation described in Section 4 earned prior to such termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event the Management Agreement between Manager and the Trust is terminated, assigned or not renewed.
EFFECTIVE DATE, DURATION AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT a. The effective date of this Agreement with respect to each Fund shall be the date set forth on Exhibit A hereto.
b. Unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, this Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to each Fund for a period of two years from the date of its execution, and thereafter shall continue in effect only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the Board of Directors of the Company or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the applicable Fund, and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the directors of the Company who are not parties to this Agreement or "interested persons," as defined in the 1940 Act, of Adviser or of the Company cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.
c. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Board of Directors of the Company or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund, or by Adviser, upon 60 days' written notice to the other party.
d. This agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its "assignment" (as defined in the 1940 Act).
e. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective with respect to any Fund until approved by the vote of: (i) a majority of the directors of the Company who are not parties to this Agreement or "interested persons" (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) of Adviser or of the Company cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval; and (ii) a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the applicable Fund.
f. Wherever referred to in this Agreement, the vote or approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities or shares of a Fund shall mean the lesser of (i) the vote of 67% or more of the voting securities of such Fund present at a regular or special meeting of shareholders duly called, if more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) the vote of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund.
EFFECT OF OPTIONAL TERMINATION Upon the exercise of the option to terminate pursuant to Section 7.2, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that:
A. the Parties respective rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Tax Year or Tax Years (as the case may be) through and including the Tax Year during which such notification is delivered to the District, shall not be impaired or modified as a result of such termination and shall survive such termination unless and until satisfied and discharged; and
B. the provisions of this Agreement regarding payments (including liquidated damages and tax payments), records and dispute resolution shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
