Deferral Account 3.1 Establishing and Crediting. The Company shall establish a Deferral Account on its books for the Director, and shall credit to the Deferral Account the following amounts:
Retirement Accounts With respect to certain retirement plans or accounts (such as individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”), SIMPLE IRAs, SEP IRAs, Xxxx IRAs, Education IRAs, and 403(b) Plans (such accounts, “Retirement Accounts”), the Transfer Agent, at the request and expense of the Fund, provide or arrange for the provision of various services to such plans and/or accounts, which services may include custodial agent services such as account set-up maintenance, and disbursements as well as such other services as the parties hereto shall mutually agree upon.
Acknowledgement of Discretionary Nature of the Plan; No Vested Rights By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, the Participant consents to participation in the Plan and acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. The Participant understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion granted Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to individuals who may be Participants of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Participant understands that the Restricted Stock Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares acquired upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Participant understands that this grant would not be made to the Participant but for the assumptions and conditions referenced above; thus, the Participant acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason the Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void. The Participant understands and agrees that, as a condition of the Restricted Stock Units, unless otherwise provided in Section 4 (Termination of Employment) of the Agreement, any unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the date the Participant ceases active employment will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount of indemnification in the event of termination of employment or service. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in the Agreement regarding the impact of a termination on the Restricted Stock Units.
Discretionary Nature of Plan The Plan is discretionary and may be amended, cancelled or terminated by the Company at any time, in its discretion. The grant of the Option in this Agreement does not create any contractual right or other right to receive any Options or other Awards in the future. Future Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. Any amendment, modification, or termination of the Plan shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Participant’s employment with the Company.
Deferred Compensation Account All Participant Deferral Credits and Employer Credits shall be credited to the Deferred Compensation Account of the Participant as provided in Section 8.
Plan Termination Generally This Agreement may be terminated only by a written agreement signed by the Bank and the Executive. The benefit shall be the Accrual Balance as of the date this Agreement is terminated. Except as provided in Section 8.3, the termination of this Agreement shall not cause a distribution of benefits under this Agreement. Rather, upon such termination benefit distributions will be made at the earliest distribution event permitted under Article 2 or Article 3.
Distributions on Account of Separation from Service If and to the extent required to comply with Section 409A, no payment or benefit required to be paid under this Agreement on account of termination of the Executive’s employment shall be made unless and until the Executive incurs a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.
Forfeiture of Benefits This Agreement is subject to termination by Company at any time and without stated cause prior to the date the Executive attains age 65, or such earlier date as the Executive and Company may mutually agree (the “Vesting Date”). In the event Company shall terminate this Agreement prior to the Vesting Date, Executive shall forfeit all rights to receive any payment provided for herein. Likewise, in the event Executive’s employment is terminated prior to his Vesting Date, either voluntarily or involuntarily, for reasons other than his death, Executive shall forfeit all rights to receive any payment provided for herein. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the earlier of his death or Vesting Date, nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon Executive any vested benefits or any vested rights to receive any payment provided for herein.
