Compensation Other Than Severance Payments 5.1 Following a Change in Control and during the Term, during any period that the Executive fails to perform the Executive's full-time duties with the Company as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, the Company shall pay the Executive's full salary to the Executive at the rate in effect at the commencement of any such period, together with all compensation and benefits payable to the Executive under the terms of any compensation or benefit plan, program or arrangement maintained by the Company during such period (other than any disability plan), until the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Disability.
No Other Severance Benefits Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Executive covenants and agrees that he shall not be entitled to any other form of severance benefits from the Company, including, without limitation, benefits otherwise payable under any of the Company's regular severance policies, in the event his employment hereunder ends for any reason and, except with respect to obligations of the Company expressly provided for herein, the Executive unconditionally releases the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and stockholders, or any of them, from any and all claims, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement or under any severance or termination arrangements of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates for compensation or benefits in connection with his employment or the termination thereof.
Compensation Benefits In consideration of Executive's services hereunder, the Company shall provide Executive the following:
Cash Severance Benefits Severance equal to the amount set forth in the Participant’s Participation Agreement and payable in cash in a lump sum in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Plan, including without limitation Section 7 hereof.
Severance Benefits To the extent that Employee shall be entitled to receive Severance Benefits pursuant to Section 4(d) or 4(e) hereof, Company and Employee agree that the following shall apply: (i) "Severance Benefits" shall mean: (A) a continuation of Employee's then effective salary as payable pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof during the Severance Period (as defined below); (B) payment of any bonus payable to Employee pursuant to Section 3(c) hereof, calculated based on the full Company bonus payable thereunder (subject to attainment by Company of any objective financial or performance standards applicable to Company) and prorated for any period during the Severance Period that is less than the full twelve (12) month period in which such bonus would be earned; (C) immediate vesting and payment of any Option Payments; and (D) continuation during the Severance Period of any medical/dental care coverage (or the reasonable equivalent thereof) which Employee is receiving as of the date of termination of the Period of Employment, provided that such insurance coverage shall terminate prior to the expiration of the Severance Period as of the first date that Employee is covered under another employer's health benefit program which provides substantially the same level of benefits without exclusion for pre-existing medical conditions. Such coverage shall be in lieu of any other continued health care coverage to which Employee or his dependents would otherwise be entitled in accordance with the requirements of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), by reason of Employee's termination of employment. (ii) "Severance Period" shall mean a period of twenty-four (24) months following the termination of the Period of Employment pursuant to Section 4(d) or 4(e) hereof. (iii) Company shall be entitled to a credit for any amounts paid pursuant to Part One, Paragraph 1 of the Change of Control Agreement for any amounts payable pursuant to Paragraph (i)(A) and (i)(B) above as part of any Severance Benefits payable hereunder.

(v) Employee agrees that payment of the Severance Benefits may, in the discretion of the Company, be subject to the prior execution by the Employee of a release of claims in a form provided by the Company prior to any such payment and that payment of the Severance Benefits shall be consideration for such release. (g)
Severance Pay In the event that your employment is terminated by the Company, except for “Cause” as defined below, you will be eligible to receive the following:
Other Severance Benefits Executive hereby agrees that in consideration for the payments to be received under Section 7(b) of this Agreement, Executive waives any and all rights to any payments or benefits under any severance plans or arrangements of the Company or their respective affiliates that specifically provide for severance payments, other than the Change in Control Severance Agreement between the Company and Executive (the “Change in Control Severance Agreement”); provided that any payments payable to Executive under Section 7(b) hereof shall be offset by any payments payable under the Change in Control Severance Agreement.
Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate under the following circumstances:
Severance Payments 6.1 If the Executive's employment is terminated following a Change in Control and during the Term, other than (A) by the Company for Cause, (B) by reason of death or Disability, or (C) by the Executive without Good Reason, then the Company shall pay the Executive the amounts, and provide the Executive the benefits, described in this Section 6.1 ("Severance Payments") and Section 6.2, in addition to any payments and benefits to which the Executive is entitled under Section 5 hereof; provided, however, that the Executive shall not be entitled to the Severance Payments unless and until the Executive (or, in the event of the Executive's death, the executor, personal representative or administrator of the Executive's estate) has signed a written waiver and release substantially in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto. For purposes of this Agreement, the Executive's employment shall be deemed to have been terminated following a Change in Control by the Company without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason, if (i) during the Term the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company without Cause following a Potential Change in Control but prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and such termination was at the request or direction of a Person who has entered into an agreement with the Company the consummation of which would constitute a Change in Control, (ii) during the Term the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason following a Potential Change in Control but prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and the circumstance or event which constitutes Good Reason occurs at the request or direction of such Person or (iii) during the Term the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason and such termination or the circumstance or event which constitutes Good Reason is otherwise in connection with or in anticipation of a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs). An Executive will not be considered to have been terminated by reason of the divestiture of a facility, sale or other disposition of a business or business unit, or the outsourcing of a business activity with which the Executive is affiliated, notwithstanding the fact that such divestiture, sale or outsourcing takes place within two years following a Change in Control, if the Executive is offered comparable employment by the successor company and such successor company agrees to assume the Company's obligations to the Executive under this Agreement.
Reduction of Severance Benefits If any payment or benefit that the Executive would receive from any Company Group member or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be either (x) the full amount of the Payment or (y) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and the Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by any member of the Company Group for any of those payments of personal tax liability.
