Compensation and Benefits During the Employment Period, Executive shall receive the following compensation and benefits: (a) An annual base salary which is not less than his or her annual base salary immediately prior to the Effective Date. During the Employment Period, Executive's annual base salary shall be reviewed at least annually and shall be increased from time to time consistent with increases in annual base salary awarded in the ordinary course of business to other executives and key employees. Any increase in annual base salary shall not limit or reduce any other obligation to Executive under this Agreement. Hibernia shall not reduce Executive's annual base salary during the Employment Period without Executive's consent. (b) A bonus (either pursuant to a bonus or incentive plan or program of Hibernia or otherwise) in cash at least equal to the product of the average of the bonus payout ratio1 for the three years (or such shorter period as Executive has been employed by Hibernia) prior to the Effective Date (expressed as a fraction) times the target bonus for the year in question (such bonus is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Employment Period Bonus"). For purposes of this paragraph (b), the parties acknowledge and agree that the bonus payout ratio is the percentage of Executive's target bonus for the year(s) in question which was actually awarded to Executive in the year(s) in question. The annual bonus shall be payable within 60 days after the end of each fiscal year. (c) Notwithstanding anything in paragraph (b) above to the contrary, however, Executive shall not be entitled to an Employment Period Bonus with respect to any year for which no bonuses have been or will be paid to any officer eligible to receive a bonus from Hibernia. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that any bonus, regardless when paid, that is paid to any officer of Hibernia that relates to a year to which an Employment Period Bonus is otherwise required to be paid, shall require the payment of an Employment Period Bonus to Executive. (d) Executive shall be eligible to participate and to continue existing participation in any and all incentive compensation plans of Hibernia which provide opportunities to receive compensation in addition to annual base salary and cash bonus on the same terms and conditions as other executives and key employees of Hibernia. (e) Executive shall be entitled to participate in salaried employee benefit plans of Hibernia and receive perquisites on the same terms and conditions as other executives and key employees of Hibernia. (f) Executive shall be entitled to continue to accrue credited service for retirement benefits and receive retirement benefits under and pursuant to the terms of any qualified retirement plan of Hibernia or supplemental executive retirement plan of Hibernia in effect on the Effective Date, on the same terms and conditions as other executives and key employees of Hibernia.
Accrued Compensation On any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company Group, the Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to the Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.
