3. In the event of termination of employment which is caused through no fault of the employee, provided the em- ployee has been in a continuous full time service of the Town for at least one (1) year; or by reason of retirement; the employee shall be paid, or entitled to time off with pay, for any accrued vacation for one (1) day's regular pay for each full month since the employees preceding vacation, not to exceed two (2) weeks pay.
