Miscellaneous Benefits This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed to be in lieu of any rights, benefits, and privileges to which Employee may be entitled as an Employee of Bank under any retirement, pension, profit sharing, insurance, hospital, bonus, vacation, or other plan or plans which may now be in effect or which may hereafter be adopted by Bank, it being understood that Employee shall have the same rights and privileges to participate in such plans and benefits, as any other employee, during the period of his employment.
Compensation/Benefit Programs During the Term of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all medical, dental, hospitalization, accidental death and dismemberment, disability, travel and life insurance plans, and any and all other plans as are presently and hereinafter offered by the Company to its executive personnel, including savings, pension, profit-sharing and deferred compensation plans, subject to the general eligibility and participation provisions set forth in such plans.
Termination and Termination Benefits Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3, the Executive's employment under this Agreement shall terminate under the following circumstances set forth in this Section 6.
Exclusivity of Salary and Benefits The Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits other than those provided under this Agreement.
Termination Benefits (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the involuntary termination of the Executive’s employment (other than for Termination for Cause or death), or by the Executive for Good Reason, the Employers shall: (i) pay the Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, a lump sum payment within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination an amount equal to three (3) times the Executive’s average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years that the Executive has been employed by the Employers or such lesser number of years in the event that the Executive shall have been employed by the Employers for less than five years. For this purpose, annual compensation shall include base salary and any other taxable income, including, but not limited to, amounts related to the granting, vesting or exercise of restricted stock or stock option awards, commissions, bonuses, pension and profit sharing plan contributions or benefits (whether or not taxable), severance payments, retirement benefits, and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive or paid for the Executive’s benefit during any such year; and (ii) cause to be continued life insurance and non-taxable medical, dental and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Employers for the Executive prior to his Date of Termination, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all employees on a nondiscriminatory basis. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) full calendar months from the Date of Termination. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to avoid penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the cash severance payable under Section 3 of this Agreement shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s Date of Termination. (c) For purposes of this Agreement, a “termination of employment” shall mean a “Separation from Service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, such that the Employers and the Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services the Executive would perform after a termination of employment would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period.
Certain Termination Benefits Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or otherwise required by law, all compensation and benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement shall terminate on the date of termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to Section 5(c) or Section 5(d) above, the Company shall provide to Executive the following termination benefits (“Termination Benefits”): (i) continuation of salary at a rate equal to one-hundred (100%) of Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the date of termination for a period of twelve months (payment shall be subject to withholding under applicable law and shall be made in periodic installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practice for executive officers of the Company as in effect from time to time) with the first payment starting on the first payroll date that occurs 30 days after the Termination Date; (ii) provided Executive elects and remains eligible for the continuation of group health plan benefits pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq. (commonly known as “COBRA”), the Company will pay with the cost of the regular premium for such benefits shared in the same relative proportion by the Company and Executive as in effect on the date of termination from the date of termination until the earlier of: (1) twelve months after the date of termination, or (2) the date Executive is no longer eligible for COBRA; and (iii) payment of the bonus that the Executive would have been entitled to receive under the bonus or other performance plan referred to in Section 3(b) had his employment not been terminated, prorated based on the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the relevant bonus period. Such payment shall be made to the Executive at the time bonuses under such plan are generally paid to other participants but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the termination date. The Company shall have the right to terminate all of the Termination Benefits set forth in Section 5(e)(i) and Section 5(e)(ii) in the event that Executive fails to comply in any material respect with Executive’s Continuing Obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5(e) shall be construed to affect Executive’s right to receive COBRA continuation entirely at Executive’s own cost to the extent that Executive may continue to be entitled to COBRA continuation after Executive’s right to cost sharing under Section 5(e)(ii) ceases. The Company and Executive agree that the Termination Benefits paid by the Company to Executive under this Section 5(e) shall be in full satisfaction, compromise and release of any claims arising exclusively out of any termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 5(c) or Section 5(d), and that the payment of the Termination Benefits shall be contingent upon Executive’s delivery of a separation agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company that shall include a general release of claims in favor of the Company and related persons and entities (“Release Agreement”), it being understood that no Termination Benefits shall be provided unless and until such Release agreement becomes fully effective.
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.
ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS The Executive shall receive the following additional compensation and welfare and fringe benefits:
Salary and Fringe Benefits The employee shall be paid a salary which is the pro- rata share of the salary which the employee would have earned had he or she not elected to exercise the option of reduced workload. The employee shall retain all other rights and benefits enjoyed by full-time members of the unit.
Supplemental Retirement Benefits The terms and conditions for the payment of supplemental retirement benefits are set forth in a separate written agreement between the parties.
