i.          Severance Per Agreement.  The Company agrees to pay the Severance Amount as specified in Section 4(b)(i) of the Agreement in one lump sum on the Closing Date, subject to Executive signing and not revoking the Release, as if Executive’s employment had terminated without Cause as of the Closing Date.

iii.          Early Termination / Pay In Lieu.  If Executive’s employment is terminated prior to the end of the Extension Term by the Company without Cause, then the Company shall pay Executive’s Base Salary through the end of the Extension Term (“Pay In Lieu”) conditioned upon Executive signing and not revoking an additional Release within sixty (60) days after such early termination.
