TIME OF PAYMENT OF ACCRUED BENEFIT Unless, pursuant to Section 6.03, the Participant or the Beneficiary elects in writing to a different time or method of payment, the Advisory Committee will direct the Trustee to commence distribution of a Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in accordance with this Section 6.01. A Participant must consent, in writing, to any distribution required under this Section 6.01 if the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, at the time of the distribution to the Participant, exceeds $3,500 and the Participant has not attained the later of Normal Retirement Age or age 62. Furthermore, the Participant's spouse also must consent, in writing, to any distribution, for which Section 6.04 requires the spouse's consent. For all purposes of this Article VI, the term "annuity starting date" means the first day of the first period for which the Plan pays an amount as an annuity or in any other form. A distribution date under this Article VI, unless otherwise specified within the Plan, is the date or dates the Employer specifies in the Adoption Agreement, or as soon as administratively practicable following that distribution date. For purposes of the consent requirements under this Article VI, if the present value of the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit, at the time of any distribution, exceeds $3,500, the Advisory Committee must treat that present value as exceeding $3,500 for purposes of all subsequent Plan distributions to the Participant.
Continued Benefits For a twenty-four (24) month period (or, if less, the number of months from the Date of Termination until the Executive would have reached age sixty-five (65)) after the Date of Termination, the Company shall provide the Executive with life insurance, health, disability and other welfare benefits ("Welfare Benefits") substantially similar in all respects to those which the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the Notice of Termination (without giving effect to any reduction in such benefits subsequent to the Potential Change in Control preceding the Change in Control or the Change in Control which reduction constitutes or may constitute God Reason). Benefits otherwise receivable by an Executive pursuant to this Section shall be reduced to the extent substantially similar benefits are actually received by or made available to the Executive by any other employer during the same time period for which such benefits would be provided pursuant to this Section at a cost to the Executive that is commensurate with the cost incurred by the Executive immediately prior to the Executive's Date of Termination (without giving effect to any increase in costs paid by the Executive after the Potential Change in Control preceding the Change in Control or the Change in Control which constitutes or may constitute Good Reason); provided, however, that if the Executive becomes employed by a new employer which maintains a medical plan that either (i) does not cover the Executive or a family member or dependent with respect to a preexisting condition which was covered under the applicable Company medical plan, or (ii) does not cover the Executive or a family member or dependent for a designated waiting period, the Executive's coverage under the applicable Company medical plan shall continue (but shall be limited in the event of noncoverage due to a preexisting condition, to such preexisting condition) until the earlier of the end of the applicable period of noncoverage under the new employer's plan or the second anniversary of the Executive's Date of Termination. The Executive agrees to report to the Company any coverage and benefits actually received by the Executive or made available to the Executive from such other employer(s). The Executive shall be entitled to elect to change his level of coverage and/or his choice of coverage options (such as Executive only or family medical coverage) with respect to the Welfare Benefits to be provided by the Company to the Executive to the same extent that actively employed senior executives of the Company are permitted to make such changes; provided, however, that in the event of any such changes the Executive shall pay the amount of any cost increase that would actually be paid by an actively employed executive of the Company by reason of making the same change in his level of coverage or coverage options.
Final Compensation In the event of termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, howsoever occurring, the Company shall pay the Executive (i) the Base Salary for the final payroll period of his employment, through the date his employment terminates; (ii) compensation at the rate of the Base Salary for any vacation time earned but not used as of the date his employment terminates; and (iii) reimbursement, in accordance with Section 2(e) hereof, for business expenses incurred by the Executive but not yet paid to the Executive as of the date his employment terminates, provided that the Executive submits all expenses and supporting documentation required within sixty (60) days of the date his employment terminates, and provided further that such expenses are reimbursable under Company policies then in effect (all of the foregoing, “Final Compensation”). Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(a)(iii), Final Compensation will be paid to the Executive within thirty (30) days following the date of termination or such shorter period required by law.
Exclusion from Compensation Calculation By acceptance of this Agreement, you shall be deemed to be in agreement that the Units covered hereby shall be considered special incentive compensation and will be exempt from inclusion as “wages” or “salary” in pension, retirement, life insurance and other employee benefits arrangements of the Company and its Affiliates, except as determined otherwise by the Company. In addition, each of your beneficiaries shall be deemed to be in agreement that all such shares be exempt from inclusion in “wages” or “salary” for purposes of calculating benefits of any life insurance coverage sponsored by the Company or any of its Affiliates.
Termination on Account of Disability Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive’s employment terminates on account of Disability, Executive shall be entitled to receive disability benefits under any disability program maintained by the Company that covers Executive, and Executive shall not receive benefits pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 hereof, except that, subject to the provisions of Section 5 hereof, the Executive shall be entitled to the following benefits provided that Executive executes and does not revoke the Release:
Termination of 401(k) Plan The Company agrees to terminate its 401(k) plan immediately prior to the Closing, unless Parent, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees to sponsor and maintain such plan by providing the Company with notice of such election at least five days before the Effective Time.
Retirement, Welfare and Fringe Benefits During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all employee pension and welfare benefit plans and programs, and fringe benefit plans and programs, made available by the Company to the Company’s employees generally, in accordance with the eligibility and participation provisions of such plans and as such plans or programs may be in effect from time to time.
Payment of Continued Group Health Plan Benefits If you are eligible for and timely elect continued group health plan coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 or any state law of similar effect (“COBRA”) following your Involuntary Termination, the Company will pay your COBRA group health insurance premiums for you and your eligible dependents directly to the insurer until the earliest of (A) the end of the period immediately following your Involuntary Termination that is equal to the Severance Period (the “COBRA Payment Period”), (B) the expiration of your eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA, or (C) the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. For purposes of this Section, references to COBRA premiums shall not include any amounts payable by you under a Section 125 health care reimbursement plan under the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot pay the COBRA premiums without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then regardless of whether you elect continued health coverage under COBRA, and in lieu of providing the COBRA premiums, the Company will instead pay you on the last day of each remaining month of the COBRA Payment Period, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA premiums for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings (such amount, the “Special Severance Payment”), which payments shall continue until the earlier of expiration of the COBRA Payment Period or the date when you become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment. On the first payroll date following the effectiveness of the Release, the Company will make the first payment to the insurer under this clause (and, in the case of the Special Severance Payment, such payment will be to you, in a lump sum) equal to the aggregate amount of payments that the Company would have paid through such date had such payments instead commenced on the date of your Involuntary Termination, with the balance of the payments paid thereafter on the schedule described above. If you become eligible for coverage under another employer’s group health plan, you must immediately notify the Company of such event, and all payments and obligations under this subsection shall cease.
METHOD OF PAYMENT OF ACCRUED BENEFIT The Advisory Committee will apply Section 6.02 of the Plan with the following modifications: (Choose (a) or at least one of (b), (c), (d) and (e))
Award and Insurance Benefits Borrower shall cooperate with Lender in obtaining for Lender the benefits of any Awards or Insurance Proceeds lawfully or equitably payable in connection with the Property, and Lender shall be reimbursed for any expenses incurred in connection therewith (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and the payment by Borrower of the expense of an appraisal on behalf of Lender in case of Casualty or Condemnation affecting the Property or any part thereof) out of such Insurance Proceeds.
