Compensation of Employee Employer shall pay Employee, and Employee shall accept from Employer, in full payment for Employee's services hereunder, compensation as follows:
Consulting Compensation In consideration for the services to be provided by the Consultant pursuant to Section 1, above, the Consultant shall be compensated as follows:
Incentive Bonus Compensation The Executive shall be eligible for incentive bonus compensation for each Fiscal Year in an amount to be determined by the Board of Directors or any committee thereof ("INCENTIVE BONUS COMPENSATION").
Full Compensation The payments that will be made to Employee or for his benefit pursuant to this Separation Agreement shall compensate him for and extinguish any and all claims he may have arising out of his employment with Deluxe or his employment termination as of the effective date of the Release, including but not limited to claims for attorneys' fees and costs, and any and all claims for any type of legal or equitable relief.
Salary, Bonus and Benefits During the Employment Period, Employer will pay Executive a base salary (the “Annual Base Salary”) of $165,000 per annum, subject to any increases as determined by the Board based upon the Company’s achievements of budgetary and other objectives set by the Board. For any fiscal year, Executive shall be eligible for an annual bonus of up to 50% of the Executive’s then applicable Annual Base Salary based upon the achievement by the Company, Employer and their Subsidiaries of budgetary and other objectives set by the Board; provided that with respect to the first year for which Executive is eligible for a bonus, such bonus shall be paid on a pro rata basis based upon that portion of the year that remained after the date of this Agreement. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to such other benefits approved by the Board and made available to the senior management of the Company, Employer and their Subsidiaries.
Incentive and Bonus Compensation The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s existing and future bonus and stock option plans and other incentive compensation programs for similarly situated executives (collectively, “Plans”), to the extent that the Executive is qualified to participate in any such Plan under the generally applicable provisions thereof in effect from time to time. Such eligibility is not a guarantee of participation in or of the receipt of any award, payment or other compensation under any Plan. To the extent the Executive does participate in a Plan and the Plan does not expressly provide otherwise, the Chief Executive Officer and/or the Board, as appropriate, may determine all terms of participation (including, without limitation, the type and size of any award, payment or other compensation and the timing and conditions of receipt thereof by the Executive) in the Chief Executive Officer’s or the Board’s sole and absolute discretion. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit the Company or the Board from amending or terminating any and all Plans in its sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of each Plan shall govern the Executive’s rights and obligations thereunder during the Executive’s employment and upon the termination thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the definition of “Cause” hereunder shall not supersede the definition of “cause” in any Plan (unless the Plan expressly defers to the definition of “cause” under an executive’s employment agreement) and any rights of the Executive hereunder upon and subsequent to the termination of the Executive’s employment shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any right of the Executive under any Plan then in effect upon or subsequent to a termination of employment.
Incentive Bonus During the Term, Employee shall be eligible to receive an incentive bonus up to the amount, based upon the criteria, and payable in such amount, at such times as are specified in Exhibit A attached hereto. The manner of payment, and form of consideration, if any, shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, and such determination shall be binding and final. To the extent that such bonus is to be determined in light of financial performance during a specified fiscal period and this Agreement commences on a date after the start of such fiscal period, any bonus payable in respect of such fiscal period's results may be prorated. In addition, if the period of Employee's employment hereunder expires before the end of a fiscal period, and if Employee is eligible to receive a bonus at such time (such eligibility being subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 6 below), any bonus payable in respect of such fiscal period's results may be prorated.
Annual Bonus Compensation In addition to your Salary, during the Employment Term you shall be eligible to earn an annual bonus for each whole or partial calendar year during the Employment Term, determined and payable as follows (the “Bonus”):
Performance Bonus If Employee's employment is terminated by Employee with cause, or by Bank without cause, Employee shall be paid, in addition to the amounts payable under Sections 3.5 and 3.6 of the Agreement: (i) all non-forfeitable deferred compensation, if any; and (ii) unpaid performance bonus payments, if any, payable under Section 4.2 of the Agreement, which shall be declared earned and payable based upon performance up to, and shall be pro-rated as of, the date of termination. Employee shall not be entitled to such unpaid performance bonus payments if Employee's employment is terminated by Bank with cause, or by Employee without cause.
Director Compensation Parent shall be responsible for the payment of any fees for service on the Parent Board that are earned at, before, or after the Effective Time, and Varex shall not have any responsibility for any such payments except as otherwise provided in Article VI with respect to deferred compensation. With respect to any Varex non-employee director, Varex shall be responsible for the payment of any fees for service on the Varex Board that are earned at any time after the Effective Time and Parent shall not have any responsibility for any such payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Varex shall commence paying quarterly cash retainers to Varex non-employee directors in respect of the quarter in which the Effective Time occurs; provided that (a) if Parent has already paid such quarter’s cash retainers to Parent non-employee directors prior to the Effective Time, then within thirty (30) days after the Distribution Date, Varex shall pay Parent an amount equal to the portion of such payment that is attributable to Transferred Directors’ service to Varex after the Distribution Date (other than any amount that is subject to a deferral election and is credited or to be credited to any such director’s account under the Parent Deferred Compensation Plans), and (b) if Parent has not yet paid such quarter’s cash retainers to Parent non-employee directors prior to the Effective Time, then within thirty (30) days after the Distribution Date, Parent shall pay Varex an amount equal to the portion of such payment that is attributable to Transferred Directors’ service to Parent on and prior to the Distribution Date.
