In no event, however, shall a Change of Control be deemed to have occurred as a result of any acquisition of securities or assets of the Company, the Association, or an affiliate or subsidiary of either of them, by the Company, the Association, or a subsidiary of either of them, or by any employee benefit plan maintained by any of them. For purposes of this Section 11 (a), the term “person” shall have the meaning assigned to it under Sections 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act.

Termination Following Change in Control In the event of the occurrence of Constructive Termination within twelve (12) months after the effective date of a Change in Control, Employee may, at Employee's option, terminate Employee's employment due to Constructive Termination unless Employee has entered into an employment agreement with Successor. Such termination shall be effective upon Employee giving notice to Successor. In the event of termination of Employee's employment (1) by Successor within twelve (12) months after the effective date of a Change of Control, or (2) by Employee within twelve (12) months after the effective date of a Change of Control as a result of a Constructive Termination, then (a) Successor shall pay Employee a lump sum cash payment equal to the Severance Amount within 10 business days after the termination of employment; (b) Successor shall make available to Employee, at Employee's cost and expense, medical and other insurance coverage at a level and to the extent required by COBRA; and (c) any outstanding options held by Employee that remain unvested as of the date of termination shall become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of termination of Employee's employment with Successor and prior to the occurrence of an event otherwise terminating the options.

Subject to the terms of this Section 2, Employee shall not be entitled to receive any other compensation or benefits under this Agreement as a result of the termination of Employee's employment following a Change of Control or Constructive Termination.

You acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain you as an employee. You may terminate your employment at any time, with or without Good Reason. If your employment with the Company terminates for any reason and subsequently a Change in Control shall have occurred, you shall not be entitled to any benefits hereunder. (b) Any termination of your employment by the Company or by you following a Change in Control of the Company during the Term shall be communicated by written notice of termination that indicates the specific provision in this Agreement relied upon and sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of your employment under the provision so indicated ("Notice of Termination").
