Rights in Event of Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control (a) In the event that Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by HMS without Cause and no Change in Control shall have occurred as of the date of such termination, upon execution of a mutual release, HMS will provide Executive with the following pay and benefits: (i) a payment in an amount equal to the greater of: that portion of the Executive’s Agreed Compensation for the then existing Employment Period that has not been paid to Executive as of the date his employment terminates, or 1.0 times the Executive’s Agreed Compensation. Such amount shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments; and (ii) subject to plan terms, Executive’s continued participation in HMS's employee benefit plans for twelve (12) months or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur. If Executive is no longer eligible to participate in an employee benefit plan because he is no longer an employee, HMS will pay Executive the amount of money that it would have cost HMS to provide the benefits to Executive. However, in the payments described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of the Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999, such payments shall be retroactively (if necessary) reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such imposition. Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of HMS's independent auditors, Executive shall remit to HMS the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then HMS shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.
Vesting Upon Change in Control Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including Section (D):
Vesting Upon a Change in Control Immediately upon a Change in Control, any equity awards subject to vesting that have been granted to the Officer under the Company’s equity incentive plans and that are not fully vested shall become fully vested and, in the case of stock options, shall become immediately exercisable, and the Officer shall be entitled, in the case of such stock options, to exercise such stock options until the earlier of the expiration of their original full term or one year from the Date of Termination (in each case, without regard to any earlier termination otherwise applicable in the event of termination of employment, and to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code).
Employment Status Termination Following Change in Control (a) No benefits shall be payable under this Agreement unless there has been a Change in Control of the Company during the Term. You acknowledge that this Agreement does not constitute a contract of employment or impose on the Company any obligation to retain you as an employee. You may terminate your employment at any time, with or without Good Reason. If your employment with the Company terminates for any reason and subsequently a Change in Control shall have occurred, you shall not be entitled to any benefits hereunder.
Termination of Employment Following a Change in Control Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.3 hereof to the contrary, if the Employee’s employment by the Company is terminated by the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 4 of the Termination Agreement and the Employee is entitled to benefits provided in Section 5 of the Termination Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Employee, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Date of Termination, the aggregate of the Employee’s Base Salary (as in effect on the Date of Termination) through the Date of Termination, if not theretofore paid, and, in the case of compensation previously deferred by the Employee, all amounts of such compensation previously deferred shall be paid in accordance with the plan documents governing such deferral. Except with respect to the obligations set for forth in the Termination Agreement, notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, all other obligations of the Company and rights of the Employee hereunder shall terminate effective as of the Date of Termination.
Termination of Employment Following Change in Control (a) If a Change in Control (as defined in Section 5(b) of this Agreement) shall occur and if thereafter at any time during the term of this Agreement there shall be:
Transfer to Avoid Termination Event If either an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs and there is only one Affected Party, or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv), use all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, excluding immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that such Termination Event ceases to exist. If the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period, whereupon the other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section 6(b)(i). Any such transfer by a party under this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld if such other party's policies in effect at such time would permit it to enter into transactions with the transferee on the terms proposed.
Acceleration of Vesting Upon Change in Control Effective at the time of a Change in Control, all unvested stock options and stock previously issued to Executive as to which rights of ownership are subject to forfeiture shall immediately vest; all risk of forfeiture of the ownership of stock or stock options and restrictions on the exercise of options shall lapse; and, Executive shall be entitled to exercise any or all options, such that the underlying shares will be considered outstanding at the time of the Change in Control.
Termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason in Connection with a Change in Control If the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company without Cause (excluding death or Disability) or if Executive resigns from his or her employment for Good Reason, and, in each case, such termination date occurs during the Change in Control Period, then Executive will receive the Accrued Benefits and, subject to Sections 5 through 7, below, Executive will be eligible to receive the following:
Employment After a Change in Control If a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in Section 12) occurs during the Change in Control Period and the Executive is employed by the Company on the date the Change in Control occurs (the “Change in Control Date”), the Company will continue to employ the Executive in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the period beginning on the Change in Control Date and ending on the third anniversary of such date (the “Employment Period”). If a Change in Control occurs on account of a series of transactions, the Change in Control Date is the date of the last of such transactions.
