Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan (the “Plan”). Any capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.
You have been designated as a Covered Executive (Tier [●] Executive) for purposes of the Plan. A copy of the Plan and SPD is attached hereto, the terms and conditions of which are incorporated by reference herein. Pursuant to the Plan, you are eligible to receive the following severance payments and benefits in connection with a Non-CIC Qualifying Termination or CIC Qualifying Termination, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan.
Non-CIC Qualifying Termination
If you experience a Non-CIC Qualifying Termination and are otherwise eligible to receive benefits under the Plan, you will receive the following, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan (including, without limitation, the requirement that you timely execute, and do not revoke, a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims):
· | Cash Severance: You will receive Cash Severance equal to [twelve (12) months of Base Salary, payable as set forth in the Plan] [nine (9) months of Base Salary, payable as set forth in the Plan] [three (3) to six (6) months of Base Salary, based on your Years of Service as of the Termination Date, payable as set forth in the Plan]. |
· | COBRA Continuation Payment: If you were enrolled in a Company health plan on the Termination Date, you will receive a COBRA Continuation Payment representing the cost of [twelve (12) months of premiums] [nine (9) months of premiums] [three (3) to six (6) months of premiums (based on your Years of Service)] associated with coverage under COBRA. |
CIC Qualifying Termination
If you experience a CIC Qualifying Termination and are otherwise eligible to receive benefits under the Plan, you will receive the following, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan (including, without limitation, the requirement that you timely execute, and do not revoke, a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims):
· | Cash Severance: You will receive Cash Severance equal to the sum of (i) [eighteen (18)] [twelve (12)] [six (6)] months of Base Salary and (ii) [1.5x] [1.0x] [0.5x] your Target Bonus, payable as set forth in the Plan. | |

Non-Duplication of Payments or Benefits
If (i) you experience a Non-CIC Qualifying Termination prior to a Change in Control that qualifies you for Non-CIC Severance under the Plan and this Agreement and (ii) a Change in Control occurs within the three (3) month period thereafter that would qualify you for CIC Severance under the Plan and this Agreement, then you will cease receiving any further payments or benefits under the Plan and this Agreement in connection with the Non-CIC Qualifying Termination, and the CIC Severance otherwise payable on a CIC Qualifying Termination will be offset by the corresponding payments or benefits already paid under this Agreement upon a Non-CIC Qualifying Termination.
Other Provisions
You agree that the Plan and this Agreement constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersede in their entirety all prior representations, understandings, undertakings or agreements (whether oral or written and whether expressed or implied) of the parties, and will specifically supersede any severance and/or change of control provisions of any offer letter, employment agreement, or equity award agreement (as to time-vesting awards) entered into between you and the Company. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control, unless otherwise expressly provided herein.
Notwithstanding Section 7.F of the Plan, with respect to your participation therein and any benefits provided to you thereunder, the Plan, this Agreement and all rights thereunder shall be governed and construed in accordance with ERISA and, to the extent not preempted by Federal law, with the laws of the state of [●].
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
