5. Termination of Employment.

If proper notice is not provided by Employee, then the Employee shall forfeit any outstanding Option Shares which have not been vested as of the date of termination. If the Corporation is the termination party, then termination of Employee’s employment with the Corporation shall be immediate and automatic. Upon termination of the Employee’s employment during the Employment Term, the Employee shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits described in this Section 5 and shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits from the Corporation or any of its affiliates. If Employee terminates Employee’s employment pursuant to this Section then the Corporation, at its option, may require Employee to cease providing services during the ten (10) day notice period required herein; provided, however, for purposes of calculating payment upon termination under this Agreement, Employee shall be treated as if he was employed during such ten (10) day period.
