Solely as used in this Paragraph, "disability" shall mean Executive's inability (as determined under the long-term disability plan maintained by Company, if applicable, or if not, by a physician mutually selected by the parties) due to illness or physical or mental incapacity, to adequately and fully perform the duties that Executive was performing for Company when the disability began.

10.          Termination.
 
(a)          Company may terminate Executive for "cause," which termination shall be immediate. Upon such termination for "cause," the Term shall be deemed to have ended and all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall cease immediately; provided, Executive shall be entitled to be paid for services rendered up to the time of actual termination. Should Company terminate Executive other than for "cause," Executive shall continue to be paid his Monthly Base Salary (but no other amounts related to any employee benefit plans and no further accrual of vacation, sick or holiday time) until the end of that Term, even though he is no longer working for Company, which payment shall be specifically conditioned upon and in exchange for any written releases deemed appropriate by Company. After that Term shall have ended, all obligations of Company under the Agreement shall cease. Should Executive terminate employment with Company for any reason, that Term shall be deemed to have ended immediately and all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall cease; provided, Company shall be entitled to damages if at least ninety (90) days prior written notice was not provided to Company by Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, termination by Company of Executive's employment for "cause" shall mean termination upon (a) the willful and continued failure by Executive to perform his duties with Company; or (b) the willful engaging by Executive in misconduct demonstrably and materially injurious to Company; (c) the willful engaging by Executive in fraud or dishonesty with respect to the Company and its activities; (d) breach of fiduciary duty involving material personal profit; or (e) commission of any federal or state felony or criminal offense (excluding traffic related offenses) which is materially and demonstrably injurious to Company. For purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on Executive's part shall be considered "willful" unless done, or admitted to be done, by Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief that Executive's action or omission was in the best interest of Company.
 
(b)             Upon Executive's termination of employment by Company after a "Change of Control" has occurred, Executive shall receive a single sum payment in an amount equal to Executive's Monthly Base Salary for thirty-six (36) months (less any applicable social security, federal, state or local tax withholdings), based on Executive's Monthly Base Salary in effect for the month in which the termination of employment occurs. Such payment shall be made forty- five (45) days after Executive's date of termination of employment; provided, if Executive constitutes a "specified employee" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A­1(i)(or any successor thereto), such payment shall not be made until six (6) months after Executive's termination of employment. For purposes of this paragraph, the determination by Company as to whether a termination of employment has occurred will be based on all relevant facts and circumstances in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). A "Change of Control" of Company shall, for purposes of this paragraph, be defined as the occurrence of (i) a "Change in Ownership", (ii) a "Change in Effective Control", or (iii) a "Change in Asset Control", as each is defined below. All such events shall be determined under and subject to all of the terms of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5). The "Change of Control" must relate to Company or an entity that is a majority shareholder of Company, which is a shareholder owning more than 50% of the total fair market value and total voting power of Company. Stock ownership shall be determined under Section 318(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"). A "Change in Ownership" occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of Company that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of Company. A "Change in Effective Control" of Company occurs on the date that either (A) any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock of Company possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of the stock of Company, or (B) a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Company are replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of Company prior to the date of the appointment or election. A "Change in Effective Control" also may occur in any transaction in which either of the two entities involved in the transaction has a "Change in Effective Control" or a "Change in Asset Control". A "Change in Asset Control" of Company occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from Company or a parent entity of Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 40% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities with such assets. There is no Change of Control under this Section when there is a transfer to an entity that is controlled by the shareholders of Company immediately after the transfer. A transfer of assets by Company is not treated as a "Change in Asset Control" if the assets are transferred to (I) a shareholder of Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to its stock, (II) an entity, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by Company, (III) a person, or more than one person acting as a group, that owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of all of the outstanding stock of Company or (IV) a person, at least 50% of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person described in the preceding (III).
 
 
 

 
 
(c)          If, as a result of payments provided for under or pursuant to this Agreement together with all other payments in the nature of compensation provided to or for the benefit of Executive under any other agreement in connection with a Change of Control, Executive becomes subject to taxes of any state, local or federal taxing authority that would not have been imposed on such payments but for the occurrence of a Change of Control, including any excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor or comparable provisions, then the Company shall pay to Executive at the time any such payments are made under this or the other agreements, an amount equal to the amount of any such taxes imposed or to be imposed on Executive (the "Parachute Tax Reimbursement"); provided, such Parachute Tax Reimbursement shall in no event be paid later than the end of the calendar year following the year in which such taxes are imposed upon Executive. Such reimbursement shall be grossed up to pay Executive for any additional taxes that are or will be payable as a result of the Parachute Tax Reimbursement being paid to Executive or as a result of the additional amounts paid or payable pursuant to this provision, such that after all reimbursement hereunder Executive shall have been paid on a net after tax basis an amount equal to the Parachute Tax Reimbursement.
 
11.          Resolution of Disputes and Governing Law. Executive and Company agree that any dispute arising hereunder or out of any further relationship shall, at the option of Company, be resolved by the Fayette Circuit Court, Fayette County, Kentucky, or by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules adopted by the American Arbitration Association (except that such rules shall be modified so that any arbitration award shall be made no later than ninety (90) days after arbitrator(s) are appointed), with any such arbitration proceedings to take place in Lexington, Kentucky. If Company should elect to resolve a dispute in the Fayette Circuit Court, such court shall have exclusive jurisdiction and Executive agrees to and does hereby waive the right to a jury trial. All parties agree that no party shall be entitled to, or recover for, consequential, punitive, exemplary or extraordinary damages.

Executive represents that in signing this Agreement he will not violate any other agreement to which he is a party.
 
16.          Non-Waiver. A delay or failure by either party to exercise a right under this Agreement, or a partial or single exercise of that right, shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other right.
 
17.          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.
