• c: Worthington resigns following a formal suggestion by the City that she resign. In the event of termination by the City for the following reasons, the City shall have no obligation to pay severance pay: d. Worthington's termination is either because she is unwilling or unable to continue to perform the duties of the City Administrator; e. Worthington's termination is because of her dishonesty or theft of the City's property; f. Worthington's termination is because of her commission of a crime or other act which would materially damage the reputation of the city; or g. Worthington's termination is for just cause. In the event of a dispute about termination under paragraph 8g, the parties agree to submit the issue to non-binding arbitration under the Rules of the American Arbitration Association. If the arbitrator agrees • that the termination was for just cause, Worthington shall receive no severance pay. If the arbitrator finds that the termination was without just cause, the termination shall stand, but Worthington shall receive severance pay. Provided, however, that since the arbitration proceedings are non-binding, either party may, after receiving the arbitrator's decision, elect to initiate legal proceedings on the "just cause" termination issue. Since other provisions in this contract are not subject to the non-binding arbitration requirement, disputes under this contract may be litigated without resorting to arbitration. 9.
