b. For Disability/Death

This Agreement may be immediately terminated by the Corporation by notice to the Executive if the Executive is determined to suffer from disability. The Executive shall be deemed to suffer from disability (hereinafter referred to as “Disability”) if in any year during the employment period, because of ill health, physical or mental disability, or for other causes beyond the control of the Executive, the Executive has been continuously unable or unwilling or has failed to perform the Executive’s duties for 120 consecutive days, or if, during any year of the employment period, the Executive has been unable or unwilling or has failed to perform his duties for a total of 180 days, consecutive or not.

Notwithstanding any short term or long term corporate benefits or insurance policies relating to disability maintained by the Corporation at the relevant time, if during any period of ill health, physical or mental disability or for other causes beyond the control of the Executive, the Executive has been continuously unable or unwilling or has failed to perform the Executive’s duties less than 120 consecutive days (the “Short-Term Illness”), the Executive shall continue to receive all amounts of remuneration and benefits otherwise payable to and enjoyed by the Executive under this Agreement less any and all amounts received by and/or payable to the Executive in connection with benefits paid and/or payable as a result of such Short-Term Illness (i.e. no duplicate payments as a result of short term disability payments and the Executive’s salary payments that are due during the Short-Term

Illness time period). Upon termination of this Agreement as a result of Disability, the Corporation shall pay to the Executive the severance payment provided for in Subsection 12(b) hereof less any and all amounts received by and/or payable to the Executive in connection with benefits paid and/or payable as a result of the Disability. Upon termination of this Agreement as a result of Disability, the Corporation shall permit the Executive to continue to participate in those employee benefits referred to in Section 5(b) hereof, to the extent enjoyed by the Executive prior to the occurrence of Disability, for the number of months of severance payments set forth in the chart on Exhibit 1. The term “any year of the employment period” means any period of 12 consecutive months during the employment period.

This Agreement shall terminate without notice or any payment in lieu thereof immediately upon the death of the Executive.

c. Voluntary Termination by Executive

If the Executive is desirous of voluntarily terminating his employment with the Corporation, the Executive agrees to give the Corporation 3 months advance written notice of such termination in which case the Executive shall not be entitled to any payment on account of severance under Section 12(b) hereof. The Reporting Manager and the CEO may waive such notice in writing after consulting with the Board of Directors, in their sole and absolute discretion, in which case the Executive’s employment shall be deemed to terminate immediately, provided the Executive shall still be entitled to compensation due on account of Annual Base Salary and benefits earned up to the last date of the 3 month advance written notice period given by the Executive and any Performance Bonus earned and prorated during such 3 month notice period. Provided that the Executive gives the 3 month notice as required hereunder, any unvested options which would have otherwise vested during such advance written notice period shall be permitted to continue to vest during such period. The Executive shall have the right to exercise any options which are vested as at the Date of Termination for the period which is 90 days following such Date of Termination (the “90 Day Period”). For purposes of this Section 11(c), the term “Date of Termination” shall mean the actual day on which the Executive ceases to be employed plus the remainder of the 3 month notice period if and to the extent waived by the Reporting Manager and the CEO in consultation with the Board of Directors. Any termination properly given under Section 14(b) hereof and in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be considered a voluntary termination under this Section 11(c).

d. Termination by Corporation Other than For Just Cause, Disability or Death

The Corporation may terminate the employment of the Executive, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon compliance with the terms of Section 12(b) hereof.

Upon termination of the Executive’s employment for Just Cause, the Executive shall not be entitled to any severance or other payment other than Annual Base Salary earned by the Executive before the Date of Termination calculated pro rata up to and including the Date of Termination and all outstanding and accrued vacation pay to the Date of Termination. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment: (i) for death; or (ii) by the voluntary termination of the employment of the Executive by the Executive pursuant to Section 11(c) hereof, the Executive shall not be entitled to any severance or other payment other than Annual Base Salary and any Performance Bonus earned by the Executive before the Date of Termination calculated pro rata up to and including the Date of Termination (which under Section 11(c) shall be as defined therein) and all outstanding and accrued vacation pay to the Date of Termination.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12(b) below, the Executive shall not be entitled to any Performance Bonus earned by the Executive before the Date of Termination unless the Executive gives the Corporation the advanced written notice required by Section 11(c) hereof.

b. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Corporation for any other reason other than the reasons set forth in Section 12(a), the Executive shall be entitled to receive, for the number of months of severance payments set forth in the chart on Exhibit 1, all of the health and dental benefits (other than disability benefits, accidental death and dismemberment benefits and life insurance benefits) that he received from the Corporation immediately prior to the termination, PLUS:

(i) All outstanding base salary earned before the Date of Termination, less any amounts that the Executive received in connection with benefits paid or payable as a result of Disability if applicable;

(ii) Any Performance Bonus which has been earned by the Executive before the Date of Termination calculated on a pro rata basis based on the number of months in the current bonus period up to and including the Date of Termination ((pro rata Performance Bonus = annual Performance Bonus target / 12) x the number of months in the then-current bonus period up to and including the Date of Termination);

Disability if applicable (for purposes of this section 12.b.(iii), and section 12.b.(iv) below, Executive’s service start date is July 1, 1992);

(iv) An amount equal to 1/12 of the Performance Bonus payments earned by Executive during the bonus year preceding the current bonus year times the number of months referred to in the chart on Exhibit 1, based on Executive’s length of service with the Company; and

If, at the Date of Termination, there were any memberships in any clubs, social or athletic organizations paid for by the Corporation pursuant to Schedule A hereof at the Date of Termination, the Corporation will not take any action to terminate such memberships but will not renew any such membership that expires or reimburse the Executive for any further payments thereunder.

Any amounts due hereunder on account of severance in 12.b.(iii) and 12.b.(iv) above shall be paid by the Corporation to the Executive on a monthly basis commencing 30 days following the Date of Termination and not in a lump sum.

c. Except as expressly stipulated in Sections 11(c) or 14 hereof or in this Section 12(c), any options which have not vested as of the Date of Termination (being in the case where the Corporation gives notice, the date specified by the Corporation as the date on which the Executive’s employment will terminate) shall terminate and be of no further force and effect as of the Date of Termination and neither any period of notice nor any payment in lieu thereof upon termination of employment hereunder shall be considered as extending the period of employment for the purposes of vesting of options notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other agreement between the Corporation and the Executive. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 12, in the event of termination by the Corporation other than for Just Cause, the Executive shall have the right to exercise any options which are vested as at the Date of Termination for the 90 Day Period (as defined in Section 11(c)).

In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 12 or elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event of termination due to death of

the Executive, the estate of the Executive shall be entitled, at any time during the period which is 12 months following the date of death of the Executive (the “12 Month Period”), to exercise any options which have vested as at the date of death of the Executive. In addition, any unvested options which would have otherwise vested during such 12 Month Period shall continue to vest during that period and to the extent of any unvested options have vested during such period, the Executive’s estate shall be entitled to exercise those options within a period which starts on the day of vesting and ends 12 months from the date of death of the Executive.

For purposes of greater certainty, if the Executive is terminated for Just Cause, Death or if the Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by the Executive pursuant to Section 11(c) then no payment whatsoever shall be made to the Executive under Section 12(b).
