In the event you fail to execute all required documents in a timely fashion, your termination of employment will not be treated as a Workforce Reduction, and if any portion of your Award has been earned or paid to you after your termination of employment but before your failure to execute all required documents, you covenant and agree that you will have no right, title or interest in such amount earned or paid and that you will cause such amount to be returned immediately to Bank of America upon notice.
