• Termination by the Executive other than for Good Reason The Executive may terminate this Agreement and Executive’s employment hereunder other than for Good Reason, provided that the Executive gives the Company no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination.

• Termination by Parent This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time by Parent if:

• Termination by the Executive Without Good Reason The Executive may terminate his employment on his own initiative for any reason upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company; provided, however, that during such notice period, the Executive shall reasonably cooperate with the Company (at no cost to the Executive) in minimizing the effects of such termination on the Company Group. Such termination shall have the same consequences as a termination for Cause under Section 6.2.

• Resignation by the Executive Executive may voluntarily resign from his employment with the Company, provided that Executive shall provide the Company with thirty (30) days advance written notice (which notice requirement may be waived, in whole or in part, by the Company in its sole discretion) of his intent to resign. If Executive so terminates his employment with the Company, other than in accordance with Section 4.5, the Company shall have no obligation other than the payment of the Accrued Obligations to the effective date of such termination.

• Confirmation by the Company The Company must provide written confirmation to the Underwriter that the Underwriter’s instructions to restrict or prohibit trading have been executed. The Company agrees to provide confirmation as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than ten (10) business days after the instructions have been executed.

• Termination by the Company Other than for Cause (1) The foregoing notwithstanding, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment for whatever reason it deems appropriate; provided, however, that in the event such termination is not based on Cause, as provided in Section 6(c) above, the Company may terminate this Agreement upon giving three (3) months' prior written notice. During such three (3) month period, the Executive shall continue to perform the Executive's duties pursuant to this Agreement, and the Company shall continue to compensate the Executive in accordance with this Agreement. The Executive will receive, at the Executive's option, either (A) a lump sum equal to the "Compensation and Benefits," as hereinafter defined, for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement, at the then current rate, reduced to present value, as set forth in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code or (B) for the remaining balance of the Term of this Agreement from and after the date of any such termination, the Company shall on the last day of each calendar month pay to the Executive such "Compensation and Benefits," which shall be an amount equal to (Y) One Hundred percent (100%) of the Executive's compensation and benefits set forth in Section 5, which shall specifically include the Base Salary and Executive Benefits (the "Compensation and Benefits"), on the date of any such termination, divided by (Z) twelve (12); provided, however, that if (A) there is a decrease in the Executive's Compensation and Benefits of more than five (5%) percent prior to termination for any reason other than for "Cause", and (B) the Executive is terminated without cause, the Compensation and Benefits shall be as existed immediately prior to such a decrease. The Executive will be entitled to continued Compensation and Benefits coverage and credits as provided in Section 5 or to reimbursement for the cost of providing the Executive with comparable benefit coverage during the term in which the Executive is receiving payments from the Company after termination pursuant to Section 6(d). Such benefit coverage will be offset by comparable coverage provided to the Executive in connection with subsequent employment.

• Termination by Executive other than for Good Reason Executive’s employment may be terminated by Executive without further liability on the part of Executive (other than with respect to those provisions of this Agreement expressly surviving such termination) by written notice to the Board of Directors at least sixty (60) days prior to such termination; provided, however, the Company may waive the notice period and accelerate the termination date without converting the Termination by Executive into a Termination by the Company.
