“Following any termination under paragraphs 4(a)(iv) or (v) (and despite his subsequent death), Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, Executive’s estate) shall be entitled to receive (A) immediately upon termination by the Company without Cause, or within fifteen (15) days of the date of termination by Executive for Good Reason, a lump sum payment in cash in an amount equal to Executive’s accrued and unpaid Base Salary plus any authorized business expenses incurred and un-reimbursed as of the date of termination, (B) a pro rata severance (“ Severance ”) in an amount equal to: Executive’s per annum Base Salary as of the date of termination multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days remaining in the fiscal year following the date of termination and the denominator of which is 365 days, payable monthly for the remainder of such fiscal year in substantially equal payments beginning, as provided in Section 4(b)(iii), on the first regular payroll date immediately following the eighth (8th) day following the Executive’s timely execution of a Release, and (C) during the period Executive receives severance, COBRA insurance benefits funded by the Company, and Executive agrees to reimburse the Company for such COBRA expenses in excess of the monthly amount the Company was paying toward Executive’s Company-provided group health insurance coverage immediately prior to Executive’s cessation of employment; provided, however, if the COBRA insurance coverage period expires during the severance period, then during the remainder of the severance period, the Company shall make monthly payments to Executive to subsidize Executive’s health care insurance costs in an amount equal to the monthly dollar amount the Company was paying toward Executive’s Company-provided group health insurance coverage immediately prior to Executive’s cessation of employment. “Change of Control Event” as used herein means the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act); or (ii) any person or group, becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a person shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the voting stock of the Company, including by way of merger, consolidation, or otherwise.”
