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:
Termination by the Company Other than for Cause (1) The foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment for whatever reason it deems appropriate; provided, however, that in the event such termination is not based on Cause, as provided in Section 6(c) above, the Company may terminate this Agreement upon giving three (3) months' prior written notice. During such three (3) month period, the Executive shall continue to perform the Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall continue to compensate the Executive in accordance with this Agreement. The Executive will receive, at the Executive's option, either (A) a lump sum equal to the "Compensation and Benefits," as hereinafter defined, for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement, at the then current rate, reduced to present value, as set forth in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code or (B) for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement from and after the date of any such termination, the Company shall on the last day of each calendar month pay to the Executive such "Compensation and Benefits," which shall be an amount equal to (Y) One Hundred percent (100%) of the Executive's compensation and benefits set forth in Section 5, which shall specifically include the Base Salary and Executive Benefits (the "Compensation and Benefits"), on the date of any such termination, divided by (Z) twelve (12); provided, however, that if (A) there is a decrease in the Executive's Compensation and Benefits of more than five (5%) percent prior to termination for any reason other than for "Cause", and (B) the Executive is terminated without cause, the Compensation and Benefits shall be as existed immediately prior to such a decrease.

Such benefit coverage will be offset by comparable coverage provided to the Executive in connection with subsequent employment.

Such termination shall have the same consequences as a termination for Cause under Section 6.2.
