Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement by reason of any actions or events in which you participate in a capacity other than in your capacity as an executive or director of the Company.

For purposes of Section 14(d)(iv) above, Base Salary shall be determined by the Base Salary at the annualized rate in effect on the date of termination of the Executive's employment, provided however, if, prior to the termination of the Executive's employment pursuant to this Section 14(d), the Base Salary has been reduced without the Executive's consent, the Base Salary in effect on the date of termination of the Executive's employment shall be deemed to be the Base Salary as in effect prior to such reduction.
