Termination by Employee for Good Reason Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for "Good Reason." As used herein, "Good Reason" shall mean the continuance of any of the following after ten (10) days' prior written notice by Employee to the Company, specifying the basis for such Employee's having Good Reason to terminate this Agreement:
Termination by the Employee for Good Reason The Employee shall have the right to terminate for “Good Reason” upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean (i) the Company’s material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, its obligation to pay salary to the Employee, (ii) a material and adverse diminution in the Employee’s job duties, responsibilities or authority, (iii) a change in the location where the Employee is required to perform his duties and responsibilities which exceeds fifty (50) miles from the location specified in Section 5 hereof, or (iv) a material reduction in the Employee’s base salary, it being intended that an individual or aggregate reduction of more than 10% from the Employee’s prior base salary level shall be considered material for purposes of this Agreement. Employee may not resign Employee’s employment for Good Reason unless (A) Employee gives the Company written notice of his objection to any event set forth above within 30 days following such event, (B) such event is not corrected, in all material respects, by the Company within 30 days following its receipt of such notice, and (C) Employee resigns his employment with the Company not more than 30 days following the expiration of the 30-day correction period described in the foregoing subclause (B). In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section, in addition to any other payments or benefits to which the Employee may be entitled under the Company’s benefit plans then in effect, the Company shall pay to the Employee, (i) his base salary through the date of termination, and (ii) provided that the Employee executes within 21 days after termination of employment and does not revoke a general release of claims against the Company and its affiliates, equityholders officers, directors, agents and employees as to employment, benefits and compensation related claims, in a form acceptable to the Company, an amount equal to one times (1.0x) the sum of Employee’s (a) base salary as of the date of termination and (b) Bonus Amount, payable in a single lump sum within 30 days after the date of termination. In the event a severance payment is made under this Section 7.E., the Company will pay to Employee a monthly payment on the first payroll date of each month equal to the COBRA cost of continued health and dental coverage under health and dental plans of the Company pursuant to Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code, less the amount that Employee would be required to contribute for health and dental coverage if Employee were an active employee, for a period of twelve (12) months from the termination date; provided, however, that this obligation shall cease at the end of the Benefits Period. These payments will commence on the Company’s first payroll date after the termination date and will continue until the end of the Benefit Period. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a termination under this Section 7.E., the Employee shall not be entitled to any other payments under this Agreement except for the Accrued Obligations or as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.
Termination by Employee with Good Reason Employee may terminate his employment with Good Reason by providing the Company thirty (30) days’ written notice setting forth with reasonable specificity the event that constitutes Good Reason, which written notice, to be effective, must be provided to the Company within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of such event. During such thirty (30) day notice period, the Company shall have a cure right (if curable), and if not cured within such period, Employee’s termination will be effective upon the date immediately following the expiration of the thirty (30) day notice period, and Employee shall be entitled to the same payments and benefits as provided in Section 8(d) above for a termination without Cause, it being agreed that Employee’s right to any such payments and benefits shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as described in Section 8(d) above. Following such termination of Employee’s employment by Employee with Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 8(e), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.
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
Termination for Cause; Resignation Without Good Reason; Death or Disability If you resign without Good Reason, or the Company terminates your employment for Cause, or upon your death or disability, then all payments of compensation by the Company to you hereunder will terminate immediately (except as to amounts already earned), and you will not be entitled to any Severance Benefits.
Termination Without Cause; Resignation for Good Reason If during the term of this Agreement, either (A) the Executive's employment with the Company and/or any of its parent, subsidiaries or affiliates is terminated for any reason other than death, disability (as defined in Section 5(e) hereof) or for Cause (as such term is defined in Section 5(a)(ii) hereof), or (B) the Executive resigns for Good Reason (as such term is defined in Section 5(a)(iii) hereof) from employment with the Company and/or any of its parent, subsidiaries or affiliates, the Executive shall be entitled (C)(x) to receive his then current Base Salary for a period of twelve (12) months from the termination or resignation date, payable at such times as such Base Salary would be payable as if no such termination or resignation had occurred, (C)(y)
(1) to continue participation in the plans and arrangements described in clauses (b) and (f) of Section 4 hereof (to the extent permissible by law and the terms of such plans and arrangements) for a period of twelve (12) months after such termination or resignation (the "Continuation Period"), or (C)(y)(2) to the extent at any time following termination of this Agreement and during the Continuation Period that the plans and arrangements described in clauses (b) and (f) of Section 4 hereof are discontinued or terminated and no comparable plans in which the Executive is permitted to continue participation are established in their place, then to receive a gross bonus payment in an amount which after payment therefrom of all applicable federal and state income and employment taxes, will equal the cost to the Company at the time of the termination, resignation or discontinuation of any such plans, attributable to the Executive's participation in the plans and arrangements described in clauses (b) and (f) of Section 4 hereof for the Continuation Period less any portion thereof in which the Executive has continued his participation in such plans and arrangements described in clauses (b) and (f) of Section 4 hereof in accordance with subsection 5(b)(C)(y)(1) above; which payment shall be due following termination or resignation of the Executive's employment immediately upon the date of termination, resignation or discontinuation of any such plan, and (C)(z) to have all stock options which have been granted to the Executive to immediately become fully exercisable and to remain exercisable for a period of three (3) months after the employment termination date in accordance with the terms of the Plans and the relevant stock option agreement, provided, however, that if the provisions of Section 5(c) are applicable to such termination or resignation of employment, the Executive's rights shall be governed by Section 5(c).
Termination by Employee without Good Reason Employee may terminate Employee’s employment without Good Reason by providing the Company sixty (60) days’ written notice of such termination. In the event of a termination of employment by Employee under this Section 8(f), Employee shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations, and any equity awards or equity-related awards that are not vested as of the date of termination shall be cancelled. In the event of termination of Employee’s employment under this Section 8(f), the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice accelerate such date of termination without changing the characterization of such termination as a termination by Employee without Good Reason. Following such termination of Employee’s employment by Employee without Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 8(f), Employee shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.
Termination for Cause; Resignation Without Good Reason If the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company for Cause, or Executive resigns without Good Reason, then Executive will not be entitled to any further compensation from the Company (other than accrued salary, and accrued and unused vacation, through Executive’s last day of employment), including severance pay, pay in lieu of notice or any other such compensation.
Termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive Without Good Reason If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment for Cause or the Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason, the Executive shall have no rights or claims against the Company except to receive the payments and benefits described in Section 6(a).
