Eligibility for Employer Contribution This section describes eligibility for an Employer Contribution toward the cost of coverage.
Maintaining Eligibility for Employer Contribution The employer's contribution continues as long as the employee remains on the payroll in an insurance eligible position. Employees who complete their regular school year assignment shall receive coverage through August 31.
Employer Contribution (a) An Employer contribution for health and dental benefits will only be made for each active employee who has at least eighty (80) paid regular hours in a month and who is eligible for medical insurance coverage, unless otherwise required by law.
(b) It is understood that the administrative intent of this Article is that the Employer contribution is made for individuals who are participants in the medical insurance coverages. Participation will mean that eligible less-than-full-time employees who drop out of coverage will be considered to participate. Additionally, employees who elect to opt out of coverage for a cash incentive will be considered to participate.
Retirement Benefit (i) In consideration of the Executive's past services to the Company, the Executive shall be entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for his life, in an amount equal to 50 percent of his highest monthly Base Salary during the Employment Term. Such payments shall commence on the first day of the month coincident with or next following the later of the Executive's attainment of age 58 or the end of the Employment Term (the "Commencement Date"); provided, however, that if the Employment Term terminates prior to his attainment of age 58, the Executive may elect by written notice to the Company to have such payments commence on the first day of any month after such termination of employment (the "Early Commencement Date") in a monthly amount equal to the monthly amount that the Executive would have received at the Commencement Date, reduced by one-third of one percent (.33%) per month for each month by which the Early Commencement Date precedes the Commencement Date. The amount of each payment hereunder shall be increased on each January 1 following the Early Commencement Date or Commencement Date, as applicable, by an amount determined by multiplying the amount of each monthly payment made in the preceding year by the percentage increase, if any, in the cost of living from the preceding January 1, as reflected by the Consumer Price Index. The Executive's election to have his retirement benefit payments commence on the Early Commencement Date shall not affect the Company's obligation to pay consulting fees to the Executive in accordance with Section 4 hereof. The retirement benefit shall be an unconditional, but unsecured, general credit obligation of the Company to the Executive, and nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action taken pursuant to it, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind between the Company and the Executive. The Executive shall have no right, title or interest whatever in or to any investments which the Company may make (including, but not limited to, an insurance policy on the life of the Executive) to aid it in meeting its obligations hereunder.
(ii) From time to time, the Company shall make such contributions to the trust established under the Trust Agreement dated as of December 18, 1986 (the "1986 Trust") between the Company, as grantor, and Wixxxxx X. Xxxxxxxx, as successor trustee, to provide a sufficient reserve for the discharge of its obligation to pay the retirement benefit to the Executive as provided in clause (i) of this Section 3(c) and clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 5(a) hereof.
Public Benefit It is XR's understanding that the commitments it has agreed to herein, and actions to be taken by XR under this Settlement Agreement confer a significant benefit to the general public, as set forth in Code of Civil Procedure § 1021.5 and Cal. Admin. Code tit. 11, § 3201. As such, it is the intent of XR that to the extent any other private party serves a notice and/or initiates an action alleging a violation of Proposition 65 with respect to XR's alleged failure to provide a warning concerning actual or alleged exposure to DEHP prior to use of the Covered Products it has manufactured, distributed, sold, or offered for sale in California, or will manufacture, distribute, sell, or offer for sale in California, such private party action would not confer a significant benefit on the general public as to those Covered Products addressed in this Settlement Agreement, provided that XR is in material compliance with this Settlement Agreement.
Early Retirement Benefit Upon Termination of Service prior to the Normal Retirement Age for reasons other than death, Change of Control or Disability, the Company shall pay to the Director the benefit described in this Section 4.2 in lieu of any other benefit under this Agreement.
Post-Retirement Benefits The present value of the expected cost of post-retirement medical and insurance benefits payable by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to its employees and former employees, as estimated by the Borrower in accordance with procedures and assumptions deemed reasonable by the Required Lenders is zero.
Change in Control Benefit If a Change in Control occurs followed within twenty-four (24) months by Separation from Service prior to Normal Retirement Age, the Bank shall distribute to the Executive the benefit described in this Section 2.4 in lieu of any other benefit under this Article.
Salary Benefits and Bonus Compensation 3.1 BASE SALARY. Effective July 1, 2000, as payment for the services to be rendered by the Employee as provided in Section 1 and subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2, the Employer agrees to pay to the Employee a "Base Salary" at the rate of $180,000 per annum, payable in equal bi-weekly installments. The Base Salary for each calendar year (or proration thereof) beginning January 1, 2001 shall be determined by the Board of Directors of Avocent Corporation upon a recommendation of the Compensation Committee of Avocent Corporation (the "Compensation Committee"), which shall authorize an increase in the Employee's Base Salary in an amount which, at a minimum, shall be equal to the cumulative cost-of-living increment on the Base Salary as reported in the "Consumer Price Index, Huntsville, Alabama, All Items," published by the U.S. Department of Labor (using July 1, 2000, as the base date for computation prorated for any partial year). The Employee's Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of Avocent Corporation.
