It should be noted that severace pay isn't only to say something like, "Kay bye! Here's a parting gift!"

In most circumstances, it's also meant to cover pay and benefits for a long enough period for the individual to find equivalent work.

In CEO circumstances, I think it's to stipulate that they are not permitted to sue the company unless they return the severance money.

It's simple, really.
