Qualifying Termination Sample Clauses

Qualifying Termination. If following, or within thirty (30) days prior to, a Change in Control Executive’s employment with the Company and its affiliated companies is terminated, such termination shall be conclusively considered a “Qualifying Termination” unless: (a) Executive voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company and its affiliated companies. Executive, however, shall not be considered to have voluntarily terminated his employment with the Company and its affiliated companies if, following, or within thirty (30) days prior to, the Change in Control, Executive’s base salary is reduced or adversely modified in any material respect, or Executive’s authority or duties are materially changed, and subsequent to such reduction, modification or change Executive elects to terminate his employment with the Company and its affiliated companies within sixty (60) days following such reduction, modification or change after having given the Company at least thirty (30) days notice of the same and a reasonable opportunity to cure during such 30-day notice period. For such purposes, Executive’s authority or duties shall conclusively be considered to have been “materially changed” if, without Executive’s express and voluntary written consent, there is any substantial diminution or adverse modification in Executive’s title, status, overall position, responsibilities, reporting relationship, general working environment (including without limitation secretarial and staff support, offices, and frequency and mode of travel), or if, without Executive’s express and voluntary written consent, Executive’s job location is transferred to a site more than twenty-five (25) miles away from his place of employment thirty (30) days prior to the Change in Control. In this regard as well, Executive’s authority and duties shall conclusively be considered to have been “materially changed” if, without Executive’s express and voluntary written consent, Executive no longer holds the same title or no longer has the same authority and responsibilities or no longer has the same reporting responsibilities, in each case with respect and as to a publicly held parent company which is not controlled by another entity or person. (b) The termination is on account of Executive’s death or Disability. For such purposes, “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental incapacity as a result of which Executive becomes unable to continue the performance of his responsibilities for the Company and its affiliated companies...
