It will be Executive's responsibility to timely elect COBRA and to make any and all required payments to maintain coverage under COBRA (the "COBRA Payment"). In addition to the COBRA Payment, Executive's outstanding Equity Awards shall vest as may be provided in the terms of the applicable Equity Award grant agreements, and Executive shall be entitled to a cash severance payment, payable in a lump sum payment on the sixtieth (60th) day following the Termination Date, which will be determined as follows (the "Severance Payment"):
After a Change in Control. If Executive terminates his employment with Good Reason or Company terminates Executives employment without Cause (and not due to Executives death or Disability) within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined below), then in addition to any compensation or benefits to which Executive may be entitled through the Date of Termination (as defined in Section 5(f) and payment for the value of any accrued, unused paid time off then-existing as of the Date of Termination, and in lieu of the Without Cause Separation Package or Good Reason Separation Package to which Executive would otherwise be entitled pursuant to Section 5(d)(i) or Section 5(a)(ii), (A) Company shall pay Executive # a lump sum equal to two times Executives Base Compensation, payable on Companys first regular pay date that is on or after the 60th day following the Date of Termination and # an amount equal to two times the Target Bonus for the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs, payable in four substantially equal installments with the first such installment paid on Companys first regular pay date that is on or after the 60th day following the Date of Termination and the three remaining installments paid in each of the three calendar quarters immediately following the calendar quarter that includes the Date of Termination and # for the period beginning on the Date of Termination and ending on the date that is 18 months after the Date of Termination, Company shall reimburse Executive for the COBRA Premium; provided, however, that in order to receive a COBRA Premium reimbursement, Executive must timely elect COBRA continuation coverage, pay the applicable COBRA Premium and provide Company with evidence satisfactory to Company of Executives having paid the COBRA Premium within 30 days of having paid such COBRA Premium; provided, further, however, that no COBRA Premium reimbursement shall be payable if such reimbursement could reasonably be expected to subject Company or any member of the Company Group to sanctions imposed pursuant to [Section 2716] of the PHSA. Each COBRA Premium reimbursement shall be provided to Executive by Company within 30 days of its receipt of such evidence of the COBRA Premium payment; provided, further, however, that Company shall have no obligation to provide Executive the COBRA Premium reimbursement for any period in which Executive is eligible to participate in a group medical plan sponsored by any other employer. Executive agrees and understands that the payment of any COBRA Premium will remain Executives sole responsibility. Collectively, the payments made under this Section shall be referred to as the CIC Separation Package. For the avoidance of doubt, if Executives employment is not terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Company without Cause (and not due to Executives death or Disability) within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, then Executive shall no longer be eligible to receive the CIC Separation Package with respect to such Change in Control but shall remain eligible to receive the Without Cause Separation Package or Good Reason Separation Package pursuant to Section 5(d)(i) or Section 5(a)(ii) or, if in the future Executives employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Company without Cause (and not due to Executives death or Disability) within twelve (12) months following the occurrence of a subsequent Change in Control, Executive shall again be eligible to receive the CIC Separation Package.
Termination Without Cause: The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive’s employment without “Cause” (as defined below) during the Employment Period upon notice to Executive. In the event of a termination without Cause, the Company will pay Executive severance compensation in an amount equal to the annual amount of Executive’s Base Salary in effect on the date on which Executive’s employment is terminated, payable in a lump sum within thirty (30) days after the date of the termination. If Executive is eligible for and elects to continue group health coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), Executive may do so at Executive’s expense. The Company will also pay Executive the target amount of the bonus contemplated under Section 2(b) for the year in which termination without Cause occurs, prorated based upon the number of days during which Executive was employed during such year, and any Performance Share Units or other equity incentives which have been granted to Executive shall fully vest on the date of termination.
Termination Without Cause. This Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time, without Cause, by 30 days' prior written notice from the Company to the Employee. If the Employee's employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than for Cause, Disability or death, or if this Agreement is terminated by the Company for what the Company believes is Cause or Disability, and it is ultimately determined that Cause did not exist or that Employee had not suffered a Disability, Employee shall be entitled only to: # any Base Salary earned but not yet paid; # reimbursement of any unpaid business expenses incurred in accordance with this Agreement by Employee prior to the effective date of the termination of Employee's employment; # any other benefits accrued and vested through the date of such termination in accordance with the applicable plans and programs of the Company; and # as damages for such a termination: the receipt of Base Salary for the longer of # six (6) months or # one (1) month for every year of service by Employee as an officer of the Company, up to a maximum of twelve (12) months after the date of termination (the period of time specified in this [subsection 6(b)(iv)] is referred to herein as the "Severance Period"). During the Severance Period, the Company shall also continue paying its normal portion of Employee's medical, dental and health insurance premiums pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act ("COBRA"), provided that Employee first timely elects to continue such coverage under COBRA, and subject to any federal COBRA premium subsidies (if any) for which Employee may be eligible. During the Severance Period, the Company will also continue Employee's life insurance and disability coverage, to the extent permitted under applicable policies, and will pay to the Employee the fringe benefits pursuant to section 5 which have accrued prior to the date of termination. By way of clarification, except to the extent such amounts have been accrued or earned as of the date of termination, Employee shall not be entitled to any bonus payout under any Company plan or program, including, without limitation, any Economic Value Added bonus plan of which Employee is a participant, in the event Employee's employment is terminated by the Company pursuant to this section 6(b). The Company's termination of the Employee's employment under this section 6(b) shall immediately relieve the Employee of all obligations under this Agreement (except as provided in sections 7 and 8) and, except as provided below, shall not be construed to require the application of any compensation which the Employee may earn in any such other employment to reduce the Company's obligation to provide severance benefits and liquidated damages under this section 6(b).
The Company may, in its sole discretion, and without cause, terminate Executive’s employment at any time upon written notice to Executive. In the event of a termination without cause, all salary, benefits, payments or reimbursements shall cease upon whatever date is specified in the notice as the effective date of termination (the “Termination Date”), other than benefits under annual or long term incentive plans or qualified retirement plans maintained by the Company. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, if Executive is terminated without cause, Executive will be entitled to the Deferred Compensation Payments as specified in Section III(d) and, provided the Termination Date is on or before December 31, 2017, the Company shall pay to executive separation pay (“Severance”) in an amount equivalent to: # Executive’s then existing salary rate (as established under Section III of this Agreement) for the lesser of # a period of twelve (12) months or # for the remainder of the period through December 31, 2017, plus # 50% of Executive’s target annual bonus as established in Section III, plus # additional taxable compensation equal to the then-current cost of twelve months of COBRA continuation coverage. The Severance shall be subject to usual and customary withholdings and paid in equal installments on the Company’s regular payroll dates during the 12 month period following the Termination Date (the “Separation Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Severance shall be payable only if Executive executes and does not revoke, and the Company receives within 90 days after the Termination Date, a waiver to be provided by the Company, releasing the Company of all claims Executive has or may have against the Company or its affiliates. Any payments of Severance attributable to payroll dates during such 90 day period will be suspended and paid (provided a valid waiver is received and not revoked) on the first regularly scheduled payroll date after such 90-day period expires.
Cause or Voluntary Resignation without Good Reason. Regardless of whether or not a Change in Control shall have occurred, if Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, or if Executive voluntarily resigns without Good Reason, the Company’s obligations under this Agreement to Executive shall terminate, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination. For the period required by COBRA after the Date of Termination for Cause or for the voluntary resignation by Executive, Executive shall have the right to elect continuation of healthcare coverage under the Company’s group plan in accordance with COBRA, provided Executive shall pay the entire cost of such coverage.
