4. Termination.

4.01 Termination by the Company for Reasons Other Than Cause.

Further, in the event of Executive’s death, the Company shall have no Call Option with respect to Executive Stock.

Executive may designate one or more beneficiaries for the purposes of this Section 4.05 by making a written designation and delivering such designation to a Vice President or the Treasurer of the Company. If Executive makes more than one such written designation, the designation last received before Executive’s death shall control.

Thereafter, if Executive’s Disability shall continue, the employment of Executive under this Agreement shall terminate and all obligations of Executive shall cease and Executive shall be entitled to receive the Benefits, if any, as may be provided by any insurance to which he may have become entitled pursuant to Section 3.04 as well as the acceleration of the exercise date of any incentive stock options granted prior to Executive’s Disability. Further, in the event of termination by reason of Executive’s Disability, the Company shall have no Call Option with respect to Executive Stock.
