If Employee’s employment is terminated by reason of Employee’s death or disability, Employee or Employee’s estate shall be paid Employee’s salary described in paragraph 3 of this Agreement, together with those fringe benefits described in paragraph 4 above, through the end of the month during which Employee’s death occurs or during which the date of termination occurs.

Death or Disability. If the Employee’s employment is terminated by reason of the Employee’s death or permanent disability, he (or the legal representative of the Employee’s estate in the event of the Employee’s death) shall be entitled to the following:

Benefits upon Death/Disability. During the Term, if the Executive’s employment is terminated on account of death under Section 4(a) or Disability under Section 4(b), all time-based equity awards (including any awards originally subject to performance vesting conditions that remain subject to time-based vesting after satisfaction of such performance conditions) held by the Executive on the Date of Termination shall vest and become exercisable or nonforfeitable and all performance-based equity awards held by the Executive on the Date of Termination which the Executive would have vested had he remained employed through the end of the performance period in respect of each such award shall become vested as of the end of such performance period(s) based on the Company’s actual performance through the end of such performance period(s) but such amount shall be further prorated in the manner set forth in the applicable award agreement.

Death, Retirement or Disability. Executive’s employment and the Employment Period shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean Executive’s voluntary resignation of employment on or after attaining age fifty-five (55) with at least ten (10) years of service. If the Committee determines in good faith that the Disability of Executive has occurred (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth in this § 7(a)), the Company may give to Executive written notice of its intention to terminate Executive’s employment. In such event, Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such written notice by Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the thirty (30) days after such receipt, Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the inability of Executive, as determined by the Committee, to substantially perform the essential functions of his regular duties and responsibilities with or without reasonable accommodation, due to a medically determinable physical or mental illness or other disability which has lasted (or can reasonably be expected to last) for a substantially continuous period of at least six (6) consecutive months.

Death, Disability or Retirement. Upon the Date of Termination due to Executive’s death, Disability or Retirement, the Company shall pay to Executive the Accrued Obligations in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination (and with respect to the payments and benefits described in [clauses (i) through (iv) of this § 8(d)] with respect to Executive’s Retirement, only if Executive executes (and does not revoke) a Release within sixty (60) days of the Date of Termination); and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant’s employment terminates as a result of the Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement during a Plan Year after having attained at least three (3) full months of participation in the Plan during such Plan Year, the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary in the case of the Participant’s death, may, in the sole discretion of the Executive Team (or, in the case of a Participant who is an Executive Officer or Additional Person, in the discretion of the O&C Committee), be entitled to receive payment of a partial Award, prorated for the number of months that the individual was a Participant during the Plan Year in which such death, Disability or Retirement takes place. For purposes of applying this proration, a month shall include each month during which the individual was employed by the Company on the 15th day of such month prior to the individual’s death, Disability or Retirement, as the case may be. Any such Award shall be paid at the same time and in the same form that all other Awards are paid for such Plan Year. The decisions of the Executive Team (or, in the case of a Participant who is an Executive Officer or Additional Person, the decisions of the O&C Committee) with respect to such Awards shall be final and binding on all parties. For purposes of this provision, a Participant’s beneficiary shall be his/her surviving spouse or, if he/she has no surviving spouse, his/her estate.

Termination Upon Death or Disability. Subject to Section 3.2, Employee’s employment and the Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall terminate: # automatically, effective immediately and without any notice being necessary, upon Employee’s death; and # in the event of the disability of Employee, by the Company giving notice of termination to Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, “disability” means the inability of Employee, due to a physical or mental impairment, for ninety (90) days (whether or not consecutive) during any period of three hundred sixty (360) days, to perform, with reasonable accommodation, the essential functions of the work contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of any dispute as to whether Employee is disabled, the matter shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in consultation with a physician selected by the Company’s health or disability insurer or another physician mutually satisfactory to the Company and Employee. Employee shall cooperate with the efforts to make such determination or be subject to immediate discharge. Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. Any determination of disability under this Section 3.1 is not intended to alter any benefits any party may be entitled to receive under any long-term disability insurance policy carried by either the Company or Employee with respect to Employee, which benefits shall be governed solely by the terms of any such insurance policy. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed as limiting or altering any of Employee’s rights under State workers compensation laws or State or federal Family and Medical Leave laws.

Any Stock delivered pursuant to Section 4 shall be delivered to the Employee if legally competent or to a legally designated guardian or representative if the Employee is legally incompetent. If the Employee is not then living, the Stock shall be delivered to the representative of the Employee’s estate.
