Common use of Xxx X Clause in Contracts

Xxx X. Xxxx is not the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company: (a) all units, stock options, incentive stock options, performance shares, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock granted and held by Executive immediately prior to such termination will immediately become 100% vested; and (b) the Executive’s right to exercise any previously unexercised options will not terminate until the latest date on which such option would expire but for Executive’s termination of employment. To the extent the Company is unable to provide for one or both of the foregoing rights the Company will provide in lieu thereof a lump-sum cash payment equal to the difference between the total value of such units, stock options, incentive stock options, performance shares, stock appreciation rights and shares of restricted stock (the “Equity Compensation Rights”) with the foregoing rights as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment and the total value of the Equity Compensation Rights without the foregoing rights as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment. The foregoing amounts will be determined by the Board in good faith based on a valuation performed by an independent consultant selected by the Board and the cash payment, if any, will be paid in a lump sum in the case of a termination under paragraph 6.1.1, at the same time as the severance payment is otherwise due under such paragraph, and in the case of a termination under paragraph 6.3, at the same time the payment is due under such paragraph. The right to the foregoing termination compensation under clauses (a) and (b) above is subject to the Executive’s execution and nonrevocation of the Company’s Separation Agreement and General Release, substantially in the form attached to this Agreement, which will operate as a release of all legally waivable claims against the Company and its affiliates, employees and directors. Such payment is further conditioned upon the Executive’s compliance with all of the provisions of this Agreement, including all post-employment obligations.
