Designation of Beneficiaries The Executive may designate any person to receive any benefits payable under the Agreement upon the Executive’s death, and the designation may be changed from time to time by the Executive by filing a new designation. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the Executive, shall be in the form prescribed by the Administrator and shall be effective only when filed in writing with the Administrator during the Executive’s lifetime. If the Executive names someone other than the Executive’s spouse as a Beneficiary, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine that spousal consent is required to be provided in a form designated by the Administrator, executed by the Executive’s spouse and returned to the Administrator. The Executive’s beneficiary designation shall be deemed automatically revoked if the Beneficiary predeceases the Executive or if the Executive names a spouse as Beneficiary and the marriage is subsequently dissolved.
Rights of Beneficiaries Each Beneficiary shall be entitled to participate in the rights and benefits due to a Beneficiary hereunder according to his Beneficial Interest. Each Beneficiary shall take and hold the same subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The interest of the Beneficiary hereby is declared and shall be in all respects personal property and upon the death of an individual Beneficiary, his Beneficial Interest shall pass as personal property to his legal representative and such death shall in no way terminate or affect the validity of this Agreement, provided that the Trustee shall not be required to evidence a book entry transfer of a deceased Beneficiary’s Beneficial Interest to his legal representative until the Trustee shall have received Letters Testamentary or Letters of Administration and written notice of the death of the deceased Beneficiary. A Beneficiary shall have no title to, right to, possession of, management of, or control of, the Trust Assets except as herein expressly provided. No widower, widow, heir, or devisee of any person who may be a Beneficiary shall have any right of dower, homestead, or inheritance, or of partition, or of any other right, statutory or otherwise, in any property forming a part of Trust Assets but the whole title to the Trust Assets shall be vested in the Trustee and the sole interest of the applicable Beneficiaries shall be the rights and benefits given to such Persons under this Agreement.
Death Subsequent to Commencement of Benefit Payments In the event the Executive dies while receiving payments, but prior to receiving all payments due and owing hereunder, the Employer shall pay the Beneficiary the same amounts at the same times as the Employer would have paid the Executive, had the Executive survived.
Notice of Change of Beneficiary Immediately prior to any transfer of Stock to a Management Stockholder’s Trust, the Management Stockholder shall provide the Company with a copy of the instruments creating the Management Stockholder’s Trust and with the identity of the beneficiaries of the Management Stockholder’s Trust. The Management Stockholder shall notify the Company as soon as practicable prior to any change in the identity of any beneficiary of the Management Stockholder’s Trust.

Termination of Benefit Plans Effective as of the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, the Company shall terminate all Company Employee Plans that are “employee benefit plans” subject to ERISA including any Company Employee Plans intended to include a Code Section 401(k) arrangement (unless Buyer provides written notice to the Company no later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date that such 401(k) plans shall not be terminated). Unless Buyer provides such written notice to the Company, no later than three Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide Buyer with evidence that such Company Employee Plan(s) have been terminated (effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date) pursuant to resolutions of the Company Board. The form and substance of such resolutions shall be subject to review and approval of Buyer. The Company also shall take such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company Employee Plan(s) as Buyer may reasonably require. In the event that termination of the Company’s 401(k) Plan would reasonably be anticipated to trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees then the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to reasonably estimate the amount of such charges and/or fees and provide such estimate in writing to Buyer no later than ten Business Days prior to the Closing Date.
Payment of Benefits Any amounts due under this Agreement shall be paid in one (1) lump sum payment as soon as administratively practicable following the later of: (i) Xx.

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.
Termination of Benefits Except as provided in Section 2 above or as may be required by law, Executive’s participation in all employee benefit (pension and welfare) and compensation plans of the Company shall cease as of the Termination Date. Nothing contained herein shall limit or otherwise impair Executive’s right to receive pension or similar benefit payments that are vested as of the Termination Date under any applicable tax-qualified pension or other plans, pursuant to the terms of the applicable plan.
Death Benefits Upon the Executive's death during the Contract Period, his estate shall not be entitled to any further benefits under this Agreement.
