Compensation Upon Termination Clause Samples
The "Compensation Upon Termination" clause defines the financial obligations and entitlements of the parties if the agreement is ended before its natural expiration. Typically, this clause outlines what payments, such as accrued salary, severance, or outstanding reimbursements, are due to an employee or contractor upon termination, and may specify conditions under which certain compensation is forfeited or enhanced. Its core function is to ensure both parties understand their rights and responsibilities regarding payment at the end of the relationship, thereby reducing disputes and providing financial clarity in the event of termination.

Compensation Upon Termination. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control of the Corporation, unless such termination is because of the Executive’s death, or by the Corporation for Cause or Disability or by the Executive other than for Good Reason, the Corporation shall pay to the Executive the following:
(i) The Corporation shall pay the Executive his full salary (whether such salary has been paid by the Corporation or by any of its subsidiaries) through the Date of Termination at the rate in effect at the time Notice of Termination is given and all other unpaid amounts, if any, to which the Executive is entitled as of the Date of Termination under any plan or other arrangement of the Company, at the time such payments are due (and in any event within 90 days after the Separation from Service);
