Death and Disability contract clause examples

Death; Disability. In the event of the Employee's death or Disability, the Employee’s employment with the Employer shall be deemed terminated as of the end of the month in which such death occurs or such Disability is determined, and all rights, duties and obligations of the parties hereunder shall thereupon cease, except for the Employee's obligations under Section 7 and Section 8 hereof (in the case of a termination due to Disability), and the Employer's obligations under [Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b)])] hereof, as the case may be.

Death or Disability. The Employee's employment will terminate immediately upon the Employee's death. If the Employee becomes physically or mentally disabled so as to become unable for a period of more than five consecutive months or for shorter periods aggregating at least five months during any twelve-month period to perform the Employee's duties hereunder on a substantially full-time basis, the Employee's employment will terminate as of the end of such five-month or twelve-month period and this shall be considered a " disability" under this Agreement. Such termination shall not affect the Employee's benefits under the Company's disability insurance program, if any, then in effect.

Death or Disability. The Employee's employment shall terminate automatically upon the Employee's death during the Employment Period. If the Company determines in good faith that the Disability of the Employee has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), it may give to the Employee written notice of its intention to terminate the Employee's employment. In such event, the Employee's employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the Employee (the "Disability Effective Date"), provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt, the Employee shall not have returned to full-time performance of the Employee's duties. For purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean the absence of the Employee from the Employee's duties with the Company on a full-time basis for 150 consecutive business days as a result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and permanent by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the Employee or the Employee's legal representative.

Death and Disability. Employee’s employment shall terminate automatically in the event of Employee’s death or Disability during the Term. If Employee’s employment is terminated on account of death or Disability, Employee or, as applicable, Employee’s estate, legal representatives or designee shall be entitled to receive, in full satisfaction of all obligations due to Employee or Employee’s estate, legal representatives or designee by Employer hereunder, the Accrued Obligations, all of which (except for the Bonus) will be paid in a lump sum at the time required by law, but no later than thirty (30) days after the Termination Date.

Death and Disability. Employee’s employment hereunder shall automatically terminate in the event of Employee’s death during employment. In the event Employee becomes disabled during employment and, as a result, is unable to continue to perform substantially all of Employee’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, either with or without reasonable accommodation, the Company will continue to pay Employee the Base Salary and to provide Employee benefits in accordance with Section 2(d) above, to the extent permitted by plan terms, for up to twelve (12) weeks of disability during any period of three hundred sixty-five (365) consecutive calendar days.

Termination Upon Death or Disability. Employee’s employment under this Agreement shall terminate immediately upon Employee’s death or Disability. The term “Disability” means Employee is # unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months; or # by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three (3) months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Company.
