Definitions and Related Matters 1 Section 1.1
Employee and Related Matters (a) Following the Effective Time, MB shall maintain or cause to be maintained employee benefit plans for the benefit of employees (as a group) who are employees of TCG and its Subsidiaries on the Closing Date ("Covered Employees") that provide employee benefits which, in the aggregate, are substantially comparable (and equivalent) to the employee benefits that are made available on a uniform and non-discriminatory basis to similarly situated employees of MB or its Subsidiaries (other than TCG and its Subsidiaries), as applicable; provided that (i) in no event shall any Covered Employee be eligible to participate in any closed or frozen plan of MB or its Subsidiaries; and (ii) until such time as MB shall cause Covered Employees to participate in the benefit plans that are made available to similarly situated employees of MB or its Subsidiaries (other than TCG and its Subsidiaries), a Covered Employee's continued participation in employee benefit plans of TCG or its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this sentence (it being understood that participation in the MB Benefit Plans may commence at different times with respect to each MB Benefit Plan). To the extent that a Covered Employee becomes eligible to participate in a MB Benefit Plan, MB shall cause such MB Benefit Plan to recognize years of prior service from the date of the most recent hire of such Covered Employee with TCG or its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility, participation, vesting and, except under any plan that determines benefits on an actuarial basis, for benefit accrual, but only to the extent that such service was recognized immediately prior to the Closing Date under a comparable TCG Benefit Plan in which such Covered Employee was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, that such recognition of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefits of a Covered Employee with respect to the same period of service.
