(b) In the event of the death, disability, retirement or resignation of the JD Director (or any other vacancy created by removal thereof), JD shall have the exclusive right to designate a replacement to fill such vacancy and serve on the Board, and the Company shall promptly cause the appointment or election of such individual to the Board (who shall, following such appointment or election, be the JD Director for purposes of this Agreement).

The Company agrees that it shall not take any action, in favor of the removal of the JD Director unless such removal shall be for Cause. Removal for “Cause” shall mean removal of a director because of such director’s (i) willful misconduct that is materially injurious, monetarily or otherwise, to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) conviction for, or guilty plea to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, or (iii) abuse of illegal drugs or other controlled substances or habitual intoxication.
