This Agreement shall commence effective as of January 31, 2017 and continue until December 31, 2018, subject to the Executive’s re-election to the Board by the stockholders of the Company (the “Term”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Change in Control (as defined in Section 5(c)) occurs during the Term, or should the Company enter into a definitive agreement during the Term that would result in a Change in Control occurring after what would otherwise have been the end of the Term, then in either case the Term shall be extended until 18 months after the Change in Control. The parties acknowledge that, upon the termination of this Agreement at the end of the Term, the Executive’s employment will automatically terminate and, thereafter, he shall be entitled to receive compensation solely in his role as a director of the Company in accordance with the Company’s director compensation program in effect at such time and consistent with the compensation paid to the independent directors of the Company.
