For Cause For a material breach that remains uncured for more than thirty calendar days or other specified period after written notice to the Contractor, the Contract or Purchase Order may be terminated by the Commissioner or Authorized User respectively, at the Contractor’s expense where Contractor becomes unable or incapable of performing, or meeting any requirements or qualifications set forth in the Contract, or for non-performance, or upon a determination that Contractor is non-responsible. Such termination shall be upon written notice to the Contractor. In such event, the Commissioner or Authorized User may complete the contractual requirements in any manner it may deem advisable and pursue available legal or equitable remedies for breach.
Due Cause The employment of the Executive may be terminated by the Company at any time during the term of this Agreement for Due Cause (defined below). In the event of such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive the base salary provided for in Section 3.1 accrued to the date of such termination and not previously paid to the Executive. The Company shall also pay to the Executive any bonus which shall be or become payable to the Executive under Section 3.2 with respect to any fiscal year of the Company ended prior to the date of such termination. For purposes hereof, "Due Cause" means (a) a material breach of any of the Executive's obligations hereunder (it being understood that any breach of the provisions of Sections 2, 7 or 8 hereof shall be considered material); (b) willful failure to carry out his duties hereunder, or gross misconduct; or (c) that the Executive has been charged with any felony or with any lesser crime or offense involving moral turpitude, or has been banned from participation in the Medicare/Medicaid program. Before terminating Executive for Due Cause, Company shall notify Executive of the grounds for such termination and, if such grounds are susceptible to cure, shall provide Executive Thirty (30) days during which to cure any such grounds. If Executive shall fail during such period to cure the grounds, Executive's termination shall be effective as of the date of the notice provided hereunder. Rights and benefits of the Executive or his transferee (a) with respect to the Options shall be determined in accordance with Section 3.3 and (b) under the benefit plans and programs of the Company shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of such plans and programs. After the satisfaction of any claim of the Company against the Executive arising as a result of such Due Cause, neither the Executive nor the Company shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except as provided in Sections 7, 8 and 9.
Termination Without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company (other than for Cause, Disability or death) or the Executive resigns for Good Reason during the Term, then the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits, subject to compliance, where applicable, with the requirements in Section 4.4 below regarding release of claims, the Company shall: (a) pay to the Executive in a lump sum (i) any unpaid base salary of the Executive, (ii) any accrued but unused and unpaid vacation pay of the Executive, (iii) any earned and unpaid bonuses of the Executive, and (iv) the amount of any unpaid compensation previously deferred by the Executive (together with any accrued interest or earnings thereon) (provided that this clause (iv) shall not cause accelerated payment of amounts subject to Section 409A (as defined below) if not provided for under the terms by which such amounts were or are deferred), in each case of clauses (i) through (iv) through the Date of Termination (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”); (b) continue to provide to the Executive in accordance with the Company’s ordinary payroll practices, the Executive’s base salary for a period of time after the Date of Termination equal to 12 months (the “Severance Period”), with payments beginning as provided in 4.4 below; (c) if and while the Executive and his or her family qualifies for and elects to participate in continuation health coverage under Section 4980B of the Code (“COBRA”), the Company will continue to pay the share of the premium for such coverage that it pays for active and similarly-situated employees who receive the same type of coverage until the earlier of (i) the end of the Severance Period or (ii) the date the Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage expires, unless the Company’s providing payments for COBRA will violate the nondiscrimination requirements of applicable law, in which case this benefit will not apply; and (d) to the extent not previously paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive following the Executive’s termination of employment under any plan, program, policy, practice, contract or agreement of the Company (collectively, the “Other Benefits”).

(iv) Fifty percent (50%) of the Employee’s then unvested stock options shall immediately vest and become exercisable and Employee shall have twelve (12) months following the Termination Date to exercise such vested shares; provided, however, that in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of any such stock option agreement and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail unless the conflicting provision(s) in any such stock option agreement shall be more favorable to Employee in which case the provision(s) more favorable to Employee shall govern; provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing in no event shall the extended twelve (12) month exercise period specified in this Section 6(b)(iv) modify or extend the Expiration Date of any stock option as set forth in such stock option agreement.
Termination Without Cause or Termination for Good Reason In the event (x) the Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by the Company without Cause, other than due to Disability or death, or (y) the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason hereunder at his initiative within 60 days following the occurrence of a Good Reason which has not been cured by the Company within 20 calendar days of receipt of notice thereof from the Executive, the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits: (i) Base Salary through the date of termination; (ii) a Pro-Rata annual incentive award for the year of termination, based on the target bonus for such year, payable promptly following such termination; (iii) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to two times the Executive's Base Salary, determined as provided in the last sentence of this Section 14(d), payable promptly following such termination; (iv) a lump sum payment in an amount equal to two times the Executive's target annual incentive award for the year of termination, payable promptly following such termination; (v) all outstanding stock options shall become fully vested and exercisable and shall remain exercisable for a period equal to the lesser of five years and the remainder of their originally scheduled terms; (vi) two additional years of service for the purpose of determining the supplemental pension benefit pursuant to Section 10; provided, however, that the total number of years of service taken into account in determining such benefit shall in no event exceed ten (10); and (vii) continued participation in all medical, dental, vision and hospitalization insurance coverage and benefits and in all other employee and senior-level executive welfare benefit plans, programs and arrangements in which he was participating on the date of the termination of his employment, on the same terms and conditions as if he had remained employed by the Company, for a period equal to 24 months following the termination of his employment; provided, however, that if the Executive becomes re-employed with another employer and is eligible to receive medical or other welfare benefits under another employer-provided plan, the medical and other welfare benefits described above shall be secondary to those provided under such other plan during such applicable period of eligibility, provided that, to the extent that the Company's plans, programs and arrangements do not permit such continuation of the Executive's participation following his termination, the Company shall provide the Executive, no less frequently than quarterly in advance with an amount which, after taxes, is sufficient for him to purchase equivalent benefits. For purposes of Section 14(d)(iv) above, Base Salary shall be determined by the Base Salary at the annualized rate in effect on the date of termination of the Executive's employment, provided however, if, prior to the termination of the Executive's employment pursuant to this Section 14(d), the Base Salary has been reduced without the Executive's consent, the Base Salary in effect on the date of termination of the Executive's employment shall be deemed to be the Base Salary as in effect prior to such reduction.
Termination for Good Reason or Without Cause If the Executive's employment hereunder is terminated by the Employer other than for cause (and other than a termination due to disability or death) or by the Executive for good reason, the Employer shall pay or provide to or on behalf of the Executive the following: (i) the Executive's Salary for the remainder, if any, of the calendar month in which such termination is effective and (A) in the case of such an employment termination on or before the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date, twenty-four (24) consecutive calendar months, or (B) in the case of such an employment termination after the second (2nd) anniversary of the Effective Date, eighteen (18) consecutive calendar months thereafter, but in no event shall the period described in clause (A) or (B) above extend beyond the Executive's death (the "severance period"); provided however, that if the Executive obtains other employment prior to the end of the severance period, he must promptly give notice thereof to the Employer, and continued Salary payments under this Agreement for any period after the Executive obtains other employment will be reduced by the amount of the cash compensation received and to be received by the Executive from the Executive's other employment for services performed during such period. (ii) the portion of the Executive's Annual Incentive Compensation under Section 3.2(a) that otherwise would have been payable based on the then current actual performance, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the number of days from January 1st of the calendar year in which such termination occurs until the date of the Executive's employment termination, and (B) the denominator of which is 365. (iii) subject to the Executive's continued co-payment of premiums, continued participation during the severance period in all medical plans that cover the Executive (and his eligible dependents) upon the same terms and conditions (except for the requirement of the Executive's continued employment) in effect for active employees of the Employer during the severance period. If the Executive obtains other employment that offers substantially similar or improved benefits, as to any particular medical plan, continuation of coverage by the Employer under this Section 6.5(a)(iii) shall immediately cease. The continuation of health benefits under this subsection shall reduce and count against the Executive's rights under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or the terms of any severance plan or policy maintained by the Employer or its Affiliates to the contrary, if the Employer makes payments and provides benefits under Section 6.5(a), the Executive shall not be entitled to receive any other payments or benefits under any other severance or similar plan maintained by the Employer or its Affiliates.
Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason Except as provided in Section 6(f) below, upon a termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Benefits and, subject to Executive’s execution and non-revocation of the release described in Section 6(g) and Executive’s compliance with Executive’s obligations under Section 8, the following severance payments and benefits (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”): (i) an amount equal to nine (9) months of Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination, payable in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices over the nine (9) month period following Executive’s termination date, commencing on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the Release Effective Date (as defined below), provided that the initial payment will include a catch-up payment to cover the period between Executive’s termination date and the date of such first payment and the remaining amounts shall be paid over the remainder of such nine (9) month period; (ii) provided Executive and his eligible dependents timely and properly elect to continue health care coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), continued participation by Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents in the standard group medical, dental and vision plans of the Company as in effect from time to time, on substantially the same terms and conditions as such benefits are provided to employees during the applicable period, and reimbursement by the Company of the monthly COBRA premium paid by Executive for him and his eligible dependents for nine (9) months or, if earlier, until the date Executive is no longer eligible to receive COBRA continuation coverage; provided, however, in the event the Company determines that such provisions would subject Executive to taxation under Section 105(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or otherwise violate any healthcare law or regulation, then, in lieu of reimbursing Executive, the Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to the amount Executive would be required to pay for continuation of group health coverage for Executive and his eligible dependents through an election under COBRA for nine (9) months, which amount shall be paid in a lump sum at the same time payments under Section 5(e)(i) commence and is intended to assist Executive with costs of health coverage, which Executive may (but is not required to) obtain through an election to continue health care coverage under COBRA; and
