 W I T N E S S E T H: 
 Whereas, the Executive is [Title] of the Corporation; 
 Whereas, the Corporation considers it essential to the best interests of its shareholders to take steps to retain key personnel such as the Executive and recognizes particularly that uncertainty might arise among

 Whereas, the Corporation has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of key

 Now, Therefore, in consideration of the covenants, terms, and conditions contained herein, the Corporation and the Executive agree:

corporate reorganization, if more than 50% of the combined voting power of the continuing or surviving entity’s securities outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation or other reorganization is owned by persons who are not part of
the same controlled group of the Parent Corporation immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or other reorganization, and who directly or indirectly in the aggregate owned less than 25% of the Parent Corporation’s or the

be comprised of individuals who either (i) have been directors continuously since the beginning of such period or (ii) have been elected, or nominated for election, as directors during such period by at least a majority of the directors
described in clause (i) who were still in office at the time such election or nomination was approved by the Parent Board;

before such transaction. 
 C. “Code,” as defined herein, shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
to date.

sentence, the Executive may resign based on the Good Reason Condition specified in the notice within the period specified in subsection (ii) above. Despite the foregoing, neither of the following will constitute a Severance of Employment:

Executive’s duties at the Corporation, provided that such misconduct is discovered after the date of the Change in Corporate Control.
