(b)    In the case of the death of the Executive or Permanent Disability, the Company shall pay to the Executive or to any beneficiary or beneficiaries of the Executive designated in writing by the Executive to the Company (or to the Executive’s estate in the absence or lapse of such designation) (collectively, the “BENEFICIARY GROUP”), in addition to the Accrued Benefits, a portion of the Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have otherwise received had the Executive been employed on a full-time basis through the end of the fiscal year in which the Executive ceases to be employed on a full-time basis (the “STUB FISCAL YEAR”), determined pro rata based upon the Company’s actual performance and the Bonus Plan for the Stub Fiscal Year, and the number of days in the Stub Fiscal Year that the Executive was employed on a full-time

4

The Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that she has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding her rights and obligations under this Agreement and that she fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.
13.    NON-DISPARAGEMENT. The Executive shall at no time, whether in writing or orally, malign, denigrate or disparage the Company any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors and successors, or any of the current or former directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, members or any of their respective agents or representatives of any of the foregoing, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned Parties in an unfavorable light. The Company also shall instruct its senior officers and directors not to disparage the Executive. Nothing contained in this Section 13 shall or shall be deemed to prevent or impair either of the Parties from testifying, to the extent that the Party or representative or agent thereof reasonably believes such testimony to be true, in any legal or administrative proceeding if such testimony is compelled (or from otherwise complying with legal requirements).
14.    PRINCIPAL WORK LOCATION AND LOCATION OF THE COMPANY’S HEADQUARTERS. Executive’s principal work location shall be located in a location that is within a reasonable distance of an air terminal that will permit reasonable connections to the location of the Company’s main operations.

17.    DAMAGES AND SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The Executive expressly recognizes that a breach of certain provisions of this Agreement is likely to result in irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages may not adequately compensate the Company for such breach. Therefore, the Executive agrees that the Company shall be entitled, if it so elects and in addition and supplementary to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to institute and

6

18.    NO WAIVER OF BREACH. No course of conduct, course of dealing or failure of any Party to enforce or exercise a provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of, or nullify the effect of, any provision of this Agreement, or affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement.
19.    GOVERNING LAW. It is the intent of the Parties hereto that all questions with respect to the construction of this Agreement and the rights and liabilities of the Parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Arkansas, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws thereof that would call for the application of the substantive law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Arkansas. Each Party irrevocably agrees for the exclusive benefit of the other that any and all suits, actions or proceedings relating to this Agreement, the Executive’s employment with the Company or any termination of such employment (collectively, “PROCEEDINGS” and, individually, a “PROCEEDING”) shall be maintained in either the courts of the State of Arkansas or the federal District Courts sitting in Fayetteville, Arkansas (collectively, the “CHOSEN COURTS”) and that the Chosen Courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear, determine or settle any Proceeding and any Proceedings shall only be brought in the Chosen Courts.

Each of the Parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agree that service of process may be made on such Party by pre-paid certified mail with a validated proof of mailing receipt constituting evidence of valid service sent to such Party at the address set forth in this Agreement, as such address may be changed from time to time pursuant hereto and that such service by mail shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Arkansas.

28.    SECTION 409A OF THE CODE.

In addition, if the Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and if one or more of the payments or benefits to be received by the Executive pursuant to this Agreement would be considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Company and the Executive shall cooperate in good faith to amend this Agreement to provide that no such payment shall be made or benefit provided until six (6) months following the Executive’s termination of employment other than due to death or Permanent Disability.

(d)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any payment or benefit under this Agreement or otherwise that is exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v)(A) or (C) (relating to certain reimbursements and in-kind benefits) shall be paid or provided to the Executive only to the extent that the expenses are not incurred, or the benefits are not provided, beyond the last day of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive’s “separation from service” occurs; and provided further that such expenses are reimbursed no later than the last day of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive’s “separation from service” occurs.  To the extent any indemnification payment, expense reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit is determined to be subject to Section 409A (and not exempt pursuant to the prior sentence or otherwise), the amount of any such indemnification payment or expenses eligible for reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the indemnification payment or provision of in-kind benefits or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year (except for any life-time or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), and in no event shall any indemnification payment or expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive incurred such indemnification payment or expenses, and in no event shall any right to indemnification payment or reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
