Obligation of Executive In the event of a tender or exchange offer, proxy contest, or the execution of any agreement which, if consummated, would constitute a Change in Control, Executive agrees not to voluntarily leave the employ of the Company, other than as a result of Disability, Retirement or an event which would constitute Good Reason if a Change in Control had occurred, until the Change in Control occurs or, if earlier, such tender or exchange offer, proxy contest, or agreement is terminated or abandoned.
Termination of Executives Employment Termination of Executive's Employment means that (i) the Company has terminated Executive's employment with the Company (including any subsidiary of the Company) other than for Cause (as defined in Section 5.2), death or Disability (as defined in Section 5.3), or (ii) Executive, by written notice to the Company, has terminated his employment with the Company (including any subsidiary of the Company) for Good Reason (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" means:
Executive’s Right to Terminate Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2.1, Executive shall have the right to terminate his employment under this Agreement for any of the following reasons:
Indemnification of Executive To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, in the event a Change of Control and a Termination of Employment of Executive as a Retired Early Employee occurs, Arrow and the Bank shall indemnify the Executive for all legal fees and expenses subsequently incurred by the Executive in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided under this Agreement related to such events, provided, however, that such right to indemnification will not apply if and to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any such fees and expenses have been incurred as a result of the Executive's bad faith. Indemnification payments payable hereunder by Arrow and the Bank shall be made not later than thirty (30) days after a request for payment has been received from the Executive with such evidence of indemnifiable fees and expenses as Arrow or the Bank may reasonably request, provided, however, that such indemnification and reimbursement payments shall not be made later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expenses were incurred.
WAIVING EXECUTIVE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL Finally, Executive agrees that Executive has been provided an opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Executive’s choice before signing this Agreement.
Termination by Virtue of Death or Disability of Executive (a) In the event of Executive’s death while employed pursuant to this Agreement, all obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate immediately, and the Company shall, pursuant to the Company’s standard payroll policies, pay to Executive’s legal representatives all Accrued Obligations.
Death or Disability of Executive Executive's employment -------------------------------- hereunder shall terminate immediately upon the death or Disability of Executive.
Rights in Event of Termination of Employment Absent Change in Control (a) In the event that Executive's employment is involuntarily terminated by HMS without Cause and no Change in Control shall have occurred as of the date of such termination, upon execution of a mutual release, HMS will provide Executive with the following pay and benefits: (i) a payment in an amount equal to the greater of: that portion of the Executive’s Agreed Compensation for the then existing Employment Period that has not been paid to Executive as of the date his employment terminates, or 1.0 times the Executive’s Agreed Compensation. Such amount shall be payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments; and (ii) subject to plan terms, Executive’s continued participation in HMS's employee benefit plans for twelve (12) months or until Executive secures substantially similar benefits through other employment, whichever shall first occur. If Executive is no longer eligible to participate in an employee benefit plan because he is no longer an employee, HMS will pay Executive the amount of money that it would have cost HMS to provide the benefits to Executive. However, in the payments described herein, when added to all other amounts or benefits provided to or on behalf of the Executive in connection with his termination of employment, would result in the imposition of an excise tax under Code Section 4999, such payments shall be retroactively (if necessary) reduced to the extent necessary to avoid such imposition. Upon written notice to Executive, together with calculations of HMS's independent auditors, Executive shall remit to HMS the amount of the reduction plus such interest as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of such excise tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any portion of the amount herein payable to the Executive is determined to be non-deductible pursuant to the regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Code, then HMS shall be required only to pay to Executive the amount determined to be deductible under Section 280G.
SEVERANCE COMPENSATION IN THE EVENT OF A TERMINATION OTHER THAN FOR CAUSE In the event of a Termination Other Than for Cause, the Employee shall be paid as severance compensation his Base Salary (at the rate payable at the time of such termination) for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of such termination, on the dates specified in Section 3.1, and Employee shall also be paid an amount equal to the average annual bonus earned by the Employee as an employee of Avocent Corporation and its affiliates and predecessors in the two (2) years immediately preceding the date of termination. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, the Employee may in the Employee’s sole discretion, by delivery of a notice to the Employer within thirty (30) days following a Termination Other Than for Cause, elect to receive from the Employer a lump sum severance payment by bank cashier’s check equal to the present value of the flow of cash payments that would otherwise be paid to the Employee pursuant to this Section 4.2. Such present value shall be determined as of the date of delivery of the notice of election by the Employee and shall be based on a discount rate equal to the interest rate on 90-day U.S. Treasury bills, as reported in The Wall Street Journal (or similar publication), on the date of delivery of the election notice. If the Employee elects to receive a lump sum severance payment, Avocent Corporation shall cause the Employer to make such payment to the Employee within ten (10) days following the date on which the Employee notifies the Employer of the Employee’s election. The Employee shall also be entitled to have the vesting of any awards granted to the Employee under any AHC or Avocent stock option plans fully accelerated. The Employee shall be provided with medical plan benefits under any health plans of Avocent or Employer in which the Employee is a participant to the full extent of the Employee’s rights under such plans for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of such Termination Other Than for Cause (even if Employee elects to receive a lump sum severance payment).
No Rights to Continued Employment Neither this Letter Agreement nor any of the rights or benefits evidenced hereby shall confer upon you any right to continuance of employment by the Company or interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate your employment, subject to the provisions of Section 4 above, for any reason, with or without Cause.
