(i) 自开始日期起,为提供服务,员工应按年发放以每年65万美元的标准(“ 基础薪水 ”),扣除联邦和州税和任何授权的自愿让薪,按公司的定期支付时间表支付。 The Company will pay Employee, within 14 days after the General Release Agreement becomes irrevocable, a lump sum in an
amount equal to one and one-half times annual Base Salary (determined without regard to any reduction in Base Salary giving rise to “Good Reason,” as defined below).
(ii) 激励报酬。 The Company will pay Employee, within 14 days after the General Release Agreement becomes irrevocable, a lump sum equal to one and one-half times the annual amount of incentive compensation for which Employee was eligible under any Incentive Compensation Plan of the Company then in effect for the year containing the Employment End Date.

(iii) Continuation of Benefits. 在雇佣结束日期后的18个月内,员工如符合条件并选择继续在COBRA下的团体医疗、视力或牙科保险,并及时缴纳与同等活跃员工为相同覆盖范围支付的保费,公司将支付公司通常份额的保费。根据本第6(g)(iii)条规定支付的福利将在员工不再有资格获得公司医疗福利计划下的COBRA覆盖范围时终止。尽管如上所述,如果公司合理确定这样做将使公司受《内部税收法典》第4980D条的罚税(因群体健康计划下的歧视性覆盖)所约束,公司将不会支付向COBRA覆盖范围描述的款项。
