6 Month Delay for Specified Employees Sample Clauses
The '6 Month Delay for Specified Employees' clause requires that certain employees, typically those classified as 'specified employees' under tax regulations, must wait six months before receiving certain deferred compensation payments after separation from service. In practice, this means that if a covered employee leaves the company, any severance or deferred compensation owed to them cannot be paid out until six months have passed, helping the employer comply with IRS Section 409A rules. This clause is primarily designed to prevent adverse tax consequences for both the employer and employee by ensuring compliance with federal tax laws regarding deferred compensation.
