If the aggregate amount of payments under (i) and (ii) are less than $250,000, then Mr. Klein shall be entitled to $250,000.
In the event that within 12 months of a “change in control”, if Mr. Klein’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” or he terminates his employment for “good reason”, in each case while he serves as Interim CEO, then: (i) he will continue to receive an amount equal to his base salary for the period of 24 months from the date of his termination; (ii) he will receive the pro rata portion of any incentive bonus, if any, earned for the fiscal year of his termination, and (iii) all unvested stock options and other equity awards granted by the Company shall immediately vest and become exercisable and shall remain exercisable for not less than 180 days thereafter.
