The executive employment agreement may be terminated, among other things: (i) by notice of termination from one party to the other; (ii) upon the death of Mr. Guyer.  Upon the termination of the executive employment agreement, Mr. Guyer will generally be entitled to separation pay equal to six months of pay for each year of service.
