Employee Benefits; ERISA (a) Schedule 4.17 contains a true and complete list of each material bonus, deferred compensation, incentive compensation, stock purchase, stock option, severance, change-in-control, or termination pay, hospitalization or other medical, life or other insurance, supplemental unemployment benefits, profit sharing, pension, or retirement plan, program, agreement or arrangement, and each other material employee benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, sponsored, maintained or contributed to or required to be contributed to by any Conveyed Entity, any Subsidiary thereof or by any trade or business, whether or not incorporated (an "ERISA Affiliate"), that together with any Conveyed Entity would be deemed a "single employer" within the meaning of Section 4001(b)(1) of ERISA, for the benefit of any employee or former employee of any Conveyed Entity, Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate (the "Plans"). Schedule 4.17 identifies each of the Plans that is an "employee welfare benefit plan," or "employee pension benefit plan" as such terms are defined in Sections 3(1) and 3(2) of ERISA (such plans being hereinafter referred to collectively as the "ERISA Plans"). No Conveyed Entity, Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate has any formal plan or commitment, whether legally binding or not, to create any additional Plan or modify or change any existing Plan that would affect any employee or former employee of any Conveyed Entity, any Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate except to the extent that any such creation, modification or change could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability of a Conveyed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries.
Employee Benefits Plans Schedule 7.14 hereto identifies as of the date hereof each ERISA Plan sponsored or maintained by a Company or BRJ Seller. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (a) no ERISA Event has occurred or is expected to occur with respect to an ERISA Plan; (b) payment has been made of all amounts which a Controlled Group member is required, under applicable law or under the governing documents, to have been paid as a contribution to or a benefit under each ERISA Plan; (c) the liability of each Controlled Group member with respect to each ERISA Plan has been fully funded based upon reasonable and proper actuarial assumptions, has been fully insured, or has been fully reserved for on its financial statements to the extent required by GAAP; and (d) to our knowledge, no changes have occurred or are expected to occur that would cause an increase in the cost of providing benefits under any ERISA Plan. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a): (i) there has been no non-compliance by the ERISA Plan and any associated trust with the applicable requirements of Code Section 401(a), (ii) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have been amended to comply with all such requirements as currently in effect, other than those requirements for which a retroactive amendment can be made within the “remedial amendment period” available under Code Section 401(b) (as extended under Treasury Regulations and other Treasury pronouncements upon which taxpayers may rely), (iii) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(a), that the associated trust qualifies under Code Section 501(a) and, if applicable, that any cash or deferred arrangement under the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(k), unless the ERISA Plan was first adopted at a time for which the above-described “remedial amendment period” has not yet expired, (iv) the ERISA Plan currently satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b), without regard to any retroactive amendment that may be made within the above-described “remedial amendment period”, and (v) no contribution made to the ERISA Plan is subject to an excise tax under Code Section 4972. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to any Pension Plan, the “accumulated benefit obligation” of Controlled Group members with respect to the Pension Plan (as determined in accordance with Statement of Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”) does not exceed the fair market value of Pension Plan assets. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Controlled Group Member has or has had in the past, an obligation to contribute to a Multiemployer Plan.
Employee Benefits Matters promptly, and in any event within 5 days after a Responsible Officer becoming aware of any of the following, a written notice setting forth the nature thereof and the action, if any, that the Company or an ERISA Affiliate proposes to take with respect thereto:
