The term "partial disability" shall mean that the Employee is able to perform, to some extent, on behalf of the Corporation, the particular services in which the Corporation specializes, and which the Employee previously performed for the Corporation, but that the Employee is unable, mentally or physically, to devote the same amount of time to such services as was devoted prior to the occurrence of such sickness or accident. c. The term "normal monthly salary" shall mean the salary which the Employee is being paid by the Corporation per month as of the commencement date of the period of disability, as specified hereinabove or as determined by the Board of Directors pursuant to the terms hereof. 9.2 Total Disability. During a single period of total disability of the Employee, the Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Corporation, the Employee's normal monthly salary for the shorter of first three (3) months of disability or until © 2000 legal-forms-kit.com, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 7 any disability insurance policy available through the Employee’s employment begins to pay benefits. If the single period of disability should continue beyond three (3) months, the Employee shall receive only such amount as the Employee shall be entitled to receive under disability insurance coverage on the Employee, if any. 9.3 Partial Disability. During a period of partial disability of the Employee, the Employee shall receive an amount of compensation computed as follows: a. That portion of the Employee's normal monthly basic compensation which bears the same ratio to the Employee's normal monthly basic compensation as the amount of time which the Employee is able to devote to the usual performance of services on behalf of the Corporation during such period bears to the total time the Employee devoted to performing such services prior to the commencement date of the single period of disability, and b. Such amount shall be calculated by multiplying the Employee’s basic compensation by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the percentage of normal services that the Employee is able to perform and the denominator which shall be the total services that the Employee is able to perform absent the partial disability. 9.4 Combination of Total and Partial Disability. If a single period of disability of the Employee consists of a combination of total disability and partial disability, the maximum total disability compensation to which the Employee shall be entitled from the Corporation under this disability provision shall not exceed an amount equal to one (1) times the Employee's normal monthly basic compensation. 9.5 Broken Periods of Disability. A period of disability may be continuous or broken. If broken into partial periods of disability which are separated by intervening periods of work, there shall be aggregated together all of such successive partial periods of disability except any period prior to the time when any single period of work extends for six (6) months or longer; and such aggregated periods of disability shall be treated as a single period in determining the amount of disability compensation to which an Employee shall be entitled under any provision of this Section. 9.6 Termination Due to Disability. If and when the period of total or partial disability of the Employee totals three (3) months, the Employee's employment with the Corporation shall automatically terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if © 2000 legal-forms-kit.com, Inc., All Rights Reserved. 8 the disabled Employee and the Corporation agree, the disabled Employee may thereafter be employed by the Corporation upon such terms as may be mutually agreeable. 9.7 Commencement Date of Disability. The commencement date of a period of disability, whether it be a continuous period or the aggregate of successive partial periods, shall be the first day on which the Employee is disabled. 9.8 Dispute Regarding Existence of Disability. Any dispute regarding the existence, extent or continuance of the disability shall be resolved by the determination of a majority of three (3) competent physicians, one (1) of whom shall be selected by the Corporation, one (1) of whom shall be selected by the Employee and the third (3rd) of whom shall be selected by the other two (2) physicians so selected. 9.9 Death of Employee. In the event the Employee shall die during the term hereof, the Corporation shall pay to the Employee's surviving spouse, or if the Employee shall leave no surviving spouse, then to the Employee's estate, only such amounts as may have been earned by the Employee prior to the Employee's date of death, but which were unpaid at date of death. 9.10 American’s With Disabilities Act.
