Right to Severance Benefits The Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company Severance Benefits, as described in Section 3.3 herein, if there has been a Change in Control of the Company and if, within twenty-four (24) calendar months following the Change in Control, a Qualifying Termination of the Executive has occurred. The Executive shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits if he/she is terminated for Cause, or if his/her employment with the Company ends due to death, Disability, or Retirement or due to a voluntary termination of employment by the Executive without Good Reason.
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. (iv) Except as provided in Section 6 below, the Severance Benefits shall be received by Employee in lieu of any other right Employee may have under applicable law, Company or Parent policies or plans or otherwise with respect to any payments or compensation in connection with the termination of Employee's employment with Company. (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.

Termination of Employment and Severance Benefits The Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate under the following circumstances:
Termination and Severance Pay Employees who terminate their employment with the City for any reason shall have their termination pay computed in the following manner.
Termination Benefits (a) If Executive’s employment is voluntarily (in accordance with Section 2(a) of this Agreement) or involuntarily terminated within two (2) years of a Change in Control, Executive shall receive:
Change in Control Severance Benefits If there is a Change in Control, and within one (1) year of such Change in Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated under the circumstances described in Sections 4(a) through 4(f) above, the Executive shall be entitled to the following: (I) if such termination is a termination by the Company without Cause pursuant to Section 4(a) or the Executive resigns for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(b), the Company shall pay the Executive the Accrued Obligations and the Pro Rata Bonus and, in addition, subject to the provisions of Section 19, (A) an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of the Executive’s Base Salary at the rate in effect on the date of termination or resignation, payable in a lump sum within sixty (60) calendar days of the date of termination or resignation; and (B) provided the Executive timely elects continuation coverage under COBRA, the Company shall also pay, on the Executive’s behalf, the portion of monthly premiums for the Executive’s group health insurance, including coverage for the Executive’s dependents, that the Company paid immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation, during the eighteen (18) month period following the date of termination or resignation, subject to the Executive’s continued eligibility for COBRA coverage. The Company will pay for such COBRA coverage for eligible dependents only for those dependents who were enrolled immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation. The Executive will continue to be required to pay that portion of the premium for the Executive’s health coverage, including coverage for the Executive’s eligible dependents, that the Executive was required to pay as an active employee immediately prior to the date of termination or resignation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that under applicable guidance the reimbursement of COBRA premiums causes the Company’s group health plan to violate any applicable nondiscrimination rule, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith a mutually agreeable alternative arrangement; and (II) if such termination is a termination or resignation under the circumstances described in Sections 4(c), 4(d), 4(e) or 4(f), the Executive shall be entitled to the compensation and benefits for which the Executive is eligible under such sections.
