2.Transition Period: The “Transition Period” shall mean the period commencing September 10, 2021 and ending on the Effective Date of Separation.

A.Resignation: Effective at the beginning of January 1, 2022, you shall no longer be an officer of C&D. You agree that your resignation was without “Good Cause” as defined in Section 1.9 of the Change in Control and Severance Agreement, executed between you and C&D on February 8, 2016 and amended on October 18, 2016 (the “CIC Agreement”).

reasonably requested by C&D pertaining to matters and/or personnel within the scope of your responsibilities for C&D (collectively, the “Transition Services”).

C.“Cause” for Termination of Transition Period: C&D may terminate the Transition Period early for “Cause” if any of the following have occurred: (a) fraudulent conduct by you directly related to the performance of the Transition Services; (b) your conviction of a crime, which, in C&D’s sole discretion, is sufficiently severe and job related to constitute a bar to continued employment; (c) violation of any law that has an adverse effect on the financial condition of C&D; (d) any material breach of this Letter Agreement, including a material failure to provide the anticipated Transition Services, which, if curable, has not been cured within 10 days of notice by C&D of such breach; (e) a violation of any written policy of C&D, which, if curable, has not been cured within 10 days of notice by C&D of such violation; or (f) your willful refusal to follow a lawful directive from management.
