Elective Deferrals (a) The Committee may establish procedures pursuant to which Employee may elect to defer, until a time or times later than the vesting of a Performance Share Unit, receipt of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a Performance Share Unit, all on such terms and conditions as the Committee (or its designee) shall determine in its sole discretion. If any such deferrals are permitted for Employee, then notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, an Employee who elects such deferral shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any such deferred shares of Common Stock unless and until the date the deferral expires and certificates representing such shares are required to be delivered to Employee. The foregoing notwithstanding, no deferrals of Dividend Equivalents related to any Performance Share Units under this Award will be permitted. Moreover, the Committee further retains the authority and discretion to modify and/or terminate existing deferral elections, procedures and distribution options. (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if deferral of Performance Share Units is permitted, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to permit the deferral of compensation only as allowed in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and any provision that would conflict with such requirements shall not be valid or enforceable. Employee acknowledges, without limitation, and consents that application of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code to this Agreement may require additional delay of payments otherwise payable under this Agreement. Employee and the Company further hereby agree to execute such further instruments and take such further action as reasonably may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
Conditions to Receipt of Severance Benefits The receipt of the Severance Benefits will be subject to you signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Separation Agreement”) by no later than the sixtieth (60th) day after your employment termination (“Release Deadline”). No Severance Benefits will be paid or provided until the Separation Agreement becomes effective. You shall also resign from all positions and terminate any relationships as an employee, advisor, officer or director with the Company and any of its affiliates, each effective on the date of termination.
Matching Contributions The Employer will make matching contributions in accordance with the formula(s) elected in Part II of this Adoption Agreement Section 3.01.
Conditions to Receipt of Severance Executive’s receipt of the severance benefits set forth in this Section 6 is conditioned upon: (i) Executive continuing to comply with Executive’s obligations under Executive’s CIIAA; and (ii) Executive delivering to the Company an effective, general release of claims in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Release”) within the applicable time period set forth therein.
Safe Harbor The recipient government will then compare the reporting year’s actual tax revenue to the baseline. If actual tax revenue is greater than the baseline, Treasury will deem the recipient government not to have any recognized net reduction for the reporting year, and therefore to be in a safe harbor and outside the ambit of the offset provision. This approach is consistent with the ARPA, which contemplates recoupment of Fiscal Recovery Funds only in the event that such funds are used to offset a reduction in net tax revenue. If net tax revenue has not been reduced, this provision does not apply. In the event that actual tax revenue is above the baseline, the organic revenue growth that has occurred, plus any other revenue-raising changes, by definition must have been enough to offset the in-year costs of the covered changes.

Conditions to Distribution (a) The consummation of the Distribution will be subject to the satisfaction, or waiver by Covidien in its sole and absolute discretion, of the following conditions: (i) The continued validity of a private letter ruling received by Covidien from the IRS (the “IRS Ruling”) prior to the date hereof in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, which shall continue in full force and effect and which shall not be modified or amended in any respect adversely affecting the intended tax-free treatment of the Distribution and certain related transactions. (ii) The receipt of a tax opinion from Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP, tax counsel to Covidien, dated as of the Distribution Date to be in form and substance satisfactory to Covidien in its sole and absolute discretion, which tax opinion shall rely on the effectiveness of the IRS Ruling, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Distribution and certain related transactions, taken together, will qualify as transactions under Sections 355(a) and/or 368(a) of the Code. (iii) The receipt of one or more opinions from Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx or another independent firm acceptable to Covidien in its sole and absolute discretion, confirming the solvency and financial viability of each of Covidien and Mallinckrodt and the satisfaction of any legal capital requirements in connection with the Separation, which opinions shall be in form and substance acceptable to Covidien in its sole and absolute discretion and which opinions shall not have been withdrawn or rescinded. (iv) The Reorganization shall have been completed in accordance with the Plan of Reorganization. (v) The financing contemplated to be obtained in connection with the Separation as described in Section 2.15 herein shall have been obtained. (vi) Each of the Ancillary Agreements shall have been duly executed and delivered by the applicable parties thereto. (vii) No order, injunction or decree issued by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the Separation, the Distribution or any of the transactions related thereto shall be pending, threatened, issued or in effect. (viii) The actions and filings necessary or appropriate under applicable U.S. federal, U.S. state or other securities Laws or blue sky Laws and the rules and regulations thereunder shall have been taken or made, and, where applicable, have become effective or been accepted. (ix) All Governmental Approvals necessary to consummate the Separation, the Distribution and the transactions related thereto and to permit the operation of the Mallinckrodt Business after the Distribution Date shall have been obtained and be in full force and effect. (x) The Separation and the Distribution shall not violate or result in a breach of applicable law or any material contract of Covidien or Mallinckrodt or any of their respective Subsidiaries. (xi) The approval for listing on the NYSE for the Mallinckrodt Ordinary Shares to be delivered to the Covidien shareholders in the Distribution shall have been obtained, subject to official notice of issuance. (xii) The SEC declaring effective the Form 10, with no order suspending the effectiveness of the Form 10 in effect and no proceedings for such purposes pending before or threatened by the SEC. (xiii) The Information Statement and such other information concerning Mallinckrodt, its business, operations and management, the Distribution and such other matters as Covidien shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion and as may otherwise be required by law shall have been mailed to the Qualifying Covidien Shareholders. (xiv) No other events or developments shall exist or shall have occurred that, in the judgment of the Covidien Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, makes it inadvisable to effect the Separation, the Distribution or the transactions related thereto. (b) The foregoing conditions are for the sole benefit of Covidien and shall not give rise to or create any duty on the part of Covidien or the Covidien Board to waive or not waive such conditions or in any way limit Covidien’s right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Article X or alter the consequences of any such termination from those specified in such Article. Any determination made by the Covidien Board prior to the Distribution concerning the satisfaction or waiver of any or all of the conditions set forth in this Section 3.3 shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties.
Conditions to Receipt of Severance No Duty to Mitigate (a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive will not receive severance pay or benefits other than the Accrued Obligations unless (x) Executive signs and does not revoke a separation agreement and release of claims in the form attached as Exhibit A, but with any appropriate reasonable modifications, reflecting changes in applicable law, as is necessary to provide the Company with the protection it would have if the Release was executed as of the date of this Agreement (the “Release”) and (y) such Release becomes effective and irrevocable no later than sixty (60) days following the termination date (such deadline, the “Release Deadline”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any rights to severance or benefits under this Agreement. All payments will be made upon the effectiveness of the Release but will be delayed until a subsequent calendar year if necessary so their timing does not result in penalty taxation under Section 409A. Severance payments or benefits will not be paid or provided until the Release becomes effective and irrevocable. For avoidance of doubt, although Executive’s severance payments and benefits are contractual rights, not “damages,” Executive is not required to seek other employment or otherwise “mitigate damages” as a condition of receiving such payments and benefits. (b) If any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” under Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) Section 409A would be payable under this Agreement by reason of Executive’s “separation from service” during a period in which Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A as determined by the Company), then any payment or benefits will be delayed until the earliest date on which they could be paid or distributed without being subject to penalty taxation under Code Section 409A. (c) Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).
Payments to Specified Employees Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, if the Employee is a Specified Employee at the time of the Employee’s Separation from Service, payments or distribution of property to the Employee provided under this Agreement, to the extent considered amounts deferred under a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (as defined in Code Section 409A) shall be deferred until the six (6) month anniversary of such Separation from Service to the extent required in order to comply with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(2).
Deferrals If permitted by the Company, the Participant may elect, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and any other applicable written plan or procedure adopted by the Company from time to time for purposes of such election, to defer the distribution of all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be distributed to the Participant hereunder (the “Deferred Shares”), consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Upon the vesting of RSUs that have been so deferred, the applicable number of Deferred Shares shall be credited to a bookkeeping account established on the Participant’s behalf (the “Account”). Subject to Section 5 hereof, the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Deferred Shares credited to the Participant’s Account shall be distributed to the Participant in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and the other applicable written plans or procedures of the Company, consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
