Employees and Benefits (a) As of the Closing, Seller shall terminate the employment of all of its Employees identified on Schedule 5.5(a) of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Subject Employees”). Schedule 5.5(a) of the Disclosure Schedule hereto may be amended from time to time prior to the Closing to (i) delete any individuals who are no longer employed by Seller or (ii) upon the mutual written agreement of Purchaser and Seller, add or remove any other individuals. Purchaser, in cooperation with Seller, shall, at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date and effective as of the Closing Date, extend a written offer of employment to those employees selected by Purchaser, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Selected Employees”), at a level and with responsibilities that are substantially commensurate with their employment with Seller and at a wage or salary and other compensation not less than the respective wages or salaries and other compensation specified for such Selected Employees on Schedule 3.11 of the Disclosure Schedule. Those Selected Employees who accept offers of employment with Purchaser and who become employees of Purchaser as of the Closing Date are referred to as “Transferred Employees.” Purchaser agrees that in the event that it determines that it may not offer employment to sufficient numbers of employees to avoid the notice and other requirements of the WARN Act, Purchaser will give Seller immediate notice thereof which will be sufficiently in advance of the Closing of the purchase of the Business that Seller will be able to comply with the notice requirements of the WARN Act and Purchaser will indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any liability or obligations under the WARN Act if Purchaser should fail to do so or if Seller otherwise incurs liability under the WARN Act as a result of Purchaser’s actions in connection with this transaction.
Employees and Benefit Plans (a) From and after the Effective Time, Buyer agrees to provide the employees of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries who remain employed after the Effective Time (collectively, the "Company Employees") with at least the types and levels of employee benefits (including employee contribution levels) comparable in the aggregate to those maintained by Buyer for similarly-situated employees of Buyer. Buyer will treat, and cause its applicable benefit plans to treat, the service of the Company Employees with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as service rendered to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and for level of benefits including, but not limited to, severance benefits, vacation entitlement and applicability of minimum waiting periods for participation (but not for benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan (including minimum pension amount) and not for participation in the Brookline Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan) attributable to any period before the Effective Time. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to the terms and conditions of Buyer's health and similar plans, Buyer shall not treat any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a "new" employee for purposes of any exclusions under any health or similar plan of Buyer for a pre-existing medical condition to the extent that any such exclusion did not apply under a health or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, and any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket expenses paid under any of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' health plans shall be credited towards deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket expenses under Buyer's health plans upon delivery to Buyer of appropriate documentation, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Buyer Employee Program.
Employees; Benefits Employee shall be entitled to all benefits to which other Executive Vice Presidents are entitled, on terms comparable thereto, which may be maintained by the Company for the benefit of its executives. The Company reserves the right to alter and amend the benefits received by Employee from time to time at the Company’s discretion.
Employees and Compensation Schedule 3.12 contains a true and complete list of all employees of the Station, their job description, date of hire, salary and amount and date of last salary increase. Schedule 3.12 also contains a true and complete list as of the date of this Agreement of all employee benefit plans or arrangements applicable to the employees of the Station and all fixed or contingent liabilities or obligations of Seller with respect to any person now or formerly employed by Seller at the Station, including pension or thrift plans, individual or supplemental pension or accrued compensation arrangements, contributions to hospitalization or other health or life insurance programs, incentive plans, bonus arrangements, and vacation, sick leave, disability and termination arrangements or policies, including workers' compensation policies, and a description of all fixed or contingent liabilities or obligations of Seller with respect to any person now or formerly employed at the Station or any person now or formerly retained as an independent contractor at the Station.
Salaries and Benefits (i) Seller shall be responsible for (A) the payment of all wages and other remuneration due to Active Employees with respect to their services as employees of Seller through the close of business on the Closing Date, including pro rata bonus payments and all vacation pay earned prior to the Closing Date; and (B) the payment of any termination or severance payments and the provision of health plan continuation coverage in accordance with the requirements of COBRA and Sections 601 through 608 of ERISA.
Employees; Benefit Plans (a) Following the Closing Date, BHB may choose to maintain any or all of the LSBG Benefit Plans in its sole discretion. Effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, LSBG shall terminate any LSBG Benefit Plans for which participant consent is not required and that BHB has requested to be terminated by providing written notice to LSBG at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date. No later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, LSBG shall provide BHB with evidence that such LSBG Benefit Plans have been terminated. However, for any LSBG Benefit Plan terminated for which there is a comparable BHB Benefit Plan of general applicability (other than the defined benefit pension plan or any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements maintained by BHB), BHB shall take all reasonable action so that employees of LSBG shall be entitled to participate in such BHB Benefit Plan to the same extent as similarly-situated employees of BHB (it being understood that inclusion of the employees of LSBG in the BHB Benefit Plans may occur at different times with respect to different plans). BHB shall cause each BHB Benefit Plan in which employees of LSBG are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the BHB Benefit Plans (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) the service of such employees with LSBG and its Subsidiaries to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by LSBG (other than for the defined benefit pension plan or any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements maintained by BHB); provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. Nothing herein shall limit the ability of BHB to amend or terminate any of the LSBG Benefit Plans or BHB Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms at any time; provided, however, that BHB shall continue to maintain the LSBG Benefit Plans (other than stock-based or incentive plans and the defined benefit pension plan and any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements) for which there is a comparable BHB Benefit Plan until the LSBG Employees are permitted to participate in the BHB Benefit Plans, unless such BHB Benefit Plan has been frozen or terminated with respect to similarly-situated employees of BHB or any Subsidiary of BHB.
Severance Pay and Benefits Upon Termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for
Accrued Compensation and Benefits Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2 and 3 above, in connection with any termination of employment upon or following a Change in Control (whether or not a Qualifying Termination or CIC Qualifying Termination), the Company or its subsidiary shall pay Executive’s earned but unpaid base salary and other vested but unpaid cash entitlements for the period through and including the termination of employment, including unused earned vacation pay and unreimbursed documented business expenses incurred by Executive prior to the date of termination (collectively “Accrued Compensation and Expenses”), as required by law and the applicable Company or its subsidiary, as applicable, plan or policy. In addition, Executive shall be entitled to any other vested benefits earned by Executive for the period through and including the termination date of Executive’s employment under any other employee benefit plans and arrangements maintained by the Company or its subsidiary, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of such plans and arrangements, except as modified herein (collectively “Accrued Benefits”). Any Accrued Compensation and Expenses to which the Executive is entitled shall be paid to the Executive in cash as soon as administratively practicable after the termination, and, in any event, no later than two and one-half (2-1/2) months after the end of the taxable year of the Executive in which the termination occurs or at such earlier time as may be required by applicable law or Section 10 below, and to such lesser extent as may be mandated by Section 9 below. Any Accrued Benefits to which the Executive is entitled shall be paid to the Executive as provided in the relevant plans and arrangements.
