Voluntary Termination With Good Reason. In the event of a voluntary termination by the Executive with Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to receive the same severance pay and benefits due upon a termination without Cause pursuant to Section 6.5 above. “Good Reason” means (i) a material diminution in the Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities as described herein; (ii) a requirement that the Executive report to a corporate officer other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; (iii) a material change in the Executive’s principal place of employment to a location that is more than 50 miles from Reston, Virginia; (iv) the failure of any successor of the Company to expressly in writing assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement; or (v) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of any agreement between the Executive and the Company or its successor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be treated as having terminated with Good Reason unless (a) the Executive notifies the Company in writing of the event or condition constituting Good Reason within sixty (60) days after he knows, or with the exercise of reasonable diligence would have known, of the occurrence of such event or condition; (b) the Company fails within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to cure such event and return the Executive to the position he would have been in had the event or condition not occurred; and (c) within thirty (30) days after the end of the cure period described in clause (b), the Executive notifies the Company in writing of his intent to terminate employment; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive’s failure to notify the Company of the occurrence of any event constituting Good Reason, or to voluntarily terminate as a result of such event, be construed as a consent to the occurrence of future events, whether or not similar to the initial occurrence, or a waiver of his right to resign for Good Reason as a result thereof.
