anniversary of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date such written notice
is received.
3.2 TERMINATION. During the Term, the employment of the Employee
under this Agreement may be terminated only as follows:
3.2.1 By the Employer:
-4-
(a) For Cause, upon written notice to the Employee
pursuant to Section 1.5.1 hereof, in which event the Employer
shall have no further obligation to the Employee except for the
payment of any amounts earned and unpaid under Section 4 on the
effective date of termination;
(b) Without Cause at any time, provided that the
Employer shall give the Employee thirty (30) days' prior written
notice of its intent to terminate, in which event the Employer
shall be required to continue to meet its obligations to the
Employee under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 for a period equal to twelve
(12) months following the effective date of termination and
under Section 4.4 to the extent provided in that Section; or
(c) Upon the Permanent Disability of Employee at any

to terminate, in which event the Employer shall be required to
continue to meet its obligations to the Employee under Sections
4.1 and 4.2 for a period equal to twelve (12) months following
the effective date of termination under Section 4.4 to the
extent provided in that Section;
(b) Without Cause, provided that the Employee shall

for six (6) months following the effective date of termination.
3.3 If, within twelve (12) months prior to or twenty-four (24)
months following a Change in Control, the Employee terminates his employment for
Cause or the Employer terminates the Employee's employment without Cause, the
Employer shall be required to pay the Employee in cash a lump sum payment in an
amount equal to two and one-half (2 1/2) multiplied by the sum of (a) the
average of the Employee's Base Salary paid over the immediately preceding three
(3) calendar years or, if less, over the Employee's entire employment history
with the Employer and (b) the average of the annual Incentive Compensation (as

-5-
days following the effective date of termination. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the aggregate amount provided
for in this Agreement and the other payments and benefits which the Employee has
the right to receive from the Employer (the "Total Amount") would constitute a
"parachute payment," as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue
Code, the Total Amount shall be reduced so that it does not exceed an amount
equal to (i) 2.99 multiplied by (ii) the Employee's "base amount" for the "base
period," as such terms are defined under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue
Code. In the event the Total Amount is reduced by reason of this Section, the
Employee shall be entitled to determine which portion of the Total Amount is to
be reduced so that the Total Amount to be paid to the Employee, as so reduced,
satisfies the limitation described in the immediately preceding sentence.
3.4 TERMINATION BY AGREEMENT. At any time upon mutual, written
agreement of the parties, in which event the Employer shall have no further
obligation to the Employee except for the payment of any amounts earned and

the Employee under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 for six (6) months following the
effective date of termination.
3.6 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Termination of the employment of the
Employee pursuant to Section 3 shall be without prejudice to any right or claim
which may have previously accrued to either the Employer or the Employee
hereunder and shall not terminate, alter, supersede or otherwise affect the
terms and covenants and the rights and duties prescribed in this Agreement. Upon
termination of the Employee's employment, the Employer shall have no further
obligation to the Employee or the Employee's estate, except for payment of any
amounts earned and unpaid under Section 4 on the effective date of termination
