The agreements are substantially the same as the Company's previous agreements, and for Messrs. Cox and Muff, a "change in control" occurs if, under certain specified circumstances:
i.
specified persons (generally defined as those directors serving at the effective date of the termination agreement and those appointed or recommended by such persons) cease to constitute a majority of the members of the Board;
ii.
a merger of the Company or one of its affiliates occurs, unless the beneficial owners of the voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such merger own at least 50 percent of the combined voting power of the Company, the surviving entity, or the parent of the surviving entity immediately after such merger;
iii.
a third person, including a "group" as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, becomes the beneficial owner of shares of the Company having 30 percent or more of the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of directors of the Company; or
iv.
a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets is consummated.
If a change in control occurs and the employment of Messrs. Cox or Muff terminates, other than due to their death or disability or by termination of employment (other than in the look-back period) by the Company for cause (as defined in the agreement), the Company will pay each 299 percent of their respective annualized base salary immediately prior to the change in control. In addition to the payment of a percentage of annualized salary discussed above,
a.
all stock and option awards held by them shall immediately become vested, exercisable, and non-forfeitable and all conditions thereof shall be deemed to have been satisfied, subject to the terms and conditions of the plan or agreement by which they were granted;
b.
the Company shall pay to them the undiscounted value of any contributions which the Company would have made to his account with the Company's 401(k) Plan had their employment continued for three years;
c.
the Company shall continue any provisions of accident and health insurance benefits being provided them for a period of three years; and
d.
the Company shall provide any benefits under any post-retirement health care insurance plans then in effect to which they would have become entitled had their employment continued for a period of three more years.
Should payments to them be subject to the excise tax of Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code or any similar tax payable under any United States federal, state, or local statute, then, subject to certain conditions within the termination agreement, the Company shall pay additional amounts to them so as to place them in the same economic position they would have been in had no excise tax been imposed.
