Severance Not in Connection with a Change In Control Clause Samples

The "Severance Not in Connection with a Change In Control" clause defines the terms under which an employee may receive severance benefits when their employment ends for reasons unrelated to a change in the ownership or control of the company. Typically, this clause outlines eligibility criteria, the amount and type of severance pay, and any conditions that must be met, such as a release of claims, when termination occurs in the ordinary course of business rather than due to a merger or acquisition. Its core function is to distinguish between standard severance entitlements and those triggered by a change in control, ensuring clarity and preventing confusion over which benefits apply in different termination scenarios.
