Seller Benefit Plans Unless otherwise provided under the terms of the applicable Employee Benefit Plan or the Transition Services Agreement, effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the Applicable Closing Date, each Employee shall cease all active participation in and accrual of benefits under the Employee Benefit Plans that are not Assumed Benefit Plans (such Employee Benefit Plans, along with any other benefit or compensation plan, program, policy or arrangement at any time sponsored, maintained, contributed to or required to be contributed to by any of the Sellers, the Transferred Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates, the “Retained Benefit Plans”). The Assumed Benefit Plans are set forth in Section 6.02 of the Disclosure Schedule). Sellers and their affiliates (other than any of the Transferred Subsidiaries) shall retain or assume all liabilities and obligations under or with respect to the Retained Benefit Plans, whether arising before, on or after the Applicable Closing Date (such liabilities and obligations shall be deemed Retained Liabilities for all purposes under this Agreement notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), and neither Purchaser nor any of its affiliates (including, after the Applicable Closing Date, any of the Transferred Subsidiaries) shall sponsor, contribute to or maintain, or have any liability with respect to, any of the Retained Benefit Plans, other than the Purchaser Retention Payment described in Section 6.11 hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) any employee or former employee working in the Business who (i) as of the Applicable Closing Date is receiving or eligible to receive short-term disability benefits under a Retained Benefit Plan, or (ii) as of the Applicable Closing Date is receiving or is in an eligibility waiting or exclusion period for purposes of receiving long-term disability benefits under a Retained Benefit Plan, shall become eligible or continue to be eligible, as applicable, to receive such benefits under a Retained Benefit Plan and (b) Sellers and their affiliates (other than the Transferred Subsidiaries) will assume or retain any obligations under Section 4980B of the Code, Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, or similar state Law (“COBRA”) with respect to employees and any other qualified beneficiaries (i) who are enrolled in COBRA continuation coverage under a Retained Benefit Plan as of the Applicable Closing Date, or (ii) with respect to whom a COBRA qualifying event occurred on or prior to the Applicable Closing Date. Following the Applicable Closing Date, each Transferred Employee shall be permitted to elect to take distribution (subject to applicable Law) of his or her vested accounts under any Retained Benefit Plan that is a U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plan and, if a Transferred Employee so elects, to roll them over, directly or otherwise, in accordance with applicable Law, to an individual retirement account or to a U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan established or maintained by Purchaser or a Transferred Subsidiary (the “Buyer U.S. Defined Contribution Plans”), and Purchaser and Sellers shall reasonably cooperate to facilitate the direct rollover of distributions, including loan balances, to the Buyer U.S. Defined Contribution Plans where elected by the Transferred Employee. Effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the Applicable Closing Date, Purchaser shall assume or a Transferred Subsidiary shall retain (as applicable) and honor in accordance with their terms the Assumed Benefit Plans and shall be solely responsible for all liabilities under the Assumed Benefit Plans, whether arising before, on or after the applicable Closing (such liabilities and obligations shall be Assumed Liabilities for all purposes under this Agreement), and Sellers shall not sponsor, contribute to or maintain, or have any liability with respect to, the Assumed Benefit Plans.
Pension and Benefit Plans (a) Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five year period. No Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and neither any Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any liability under ERISA that would exceed $25,000,000 if any Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is Insolvent.
Employees and Benefit Plans (a) From and after the Effective Time, Buyer agrees to provide the employees of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries who remain employed after the Effective Time (collectively, the "Company Employees") with at least the types and levels of employee benefits (including employee contribution levels) comparable in the aggregate to those maintained by Buyer for similarly-situated employees of Buyer. Buyer will treat, and cause its applicable benefit plans to treat, the service of the Company Employees with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as service rendered to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting and for level of benefits including, but not limited to, severance benefits, vacation entitlement and applicability of minimum waiting periods for participation (but not for benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan (including minimum pension amount) and not for participation in the Brookline Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan) attributable to any period before the Effective Time. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to the terms and conditions of Buyer's health and similar plans, Buyer shall not treat any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a "new" employee for purposes of any exclusions under any health or similar plan of Buyer for a pre-existing medical condition to the extent that any such exclusion did not apply under a health or similar plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time, and any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket expenses paid under any of the Company's or any of its Subsidiaries' health plans shall be credited towards deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket expenses under Buyer's health plans upon delivery to Buyer of appropriate documentation, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Buyer Employee Program.
Welfare Benefit Plans During the Employment Period, the Executive and/or the Executive's family, as the case may be, shall be eligible for participation in and shall receive all benefits under welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company and its affiliated companies (including, without limitation, medical, prescription, dental, disability, employee life, group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and programs) to the extent applicable generally to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies, but in no event shall such plans, practices, policies and programs provide the Executive with benefits which are less favorable, in the aggregate, than the most favorable of such plans, practices, policies and programs in effect for the Executive at any time during the 120-day period immediately preceding the Effective Date or, if more favorable to the Executive, those provided generally at any time after the Effective Date to other peer executives of the Company and its affiliated companies.
Employees; Benefit Plans (a) Following the Closing Date, BHB may choose to maintain any or all of the LSBG Benefit Plans in its sole discretion. Effective no later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, LSBG shall terminate any LSBG Benefit Plans for which participant consent is not required and that BHB has requested to be terminated by providing written notice to LSBG at least fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date. No later than the day immediately preceding the Closing Date, LSBG shall provide BHB with evidence that such LSBG Benefit Plans have been terminated. However, for any LSBG Benefit Plan terminated for which there is a comparable BHB Benefit Plan of general applicability (other than the defined benefit pension plan or any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements maintained by BHB), BHB shall take all reasonable action so that employees of LSBG shall be entitled to participate in such BHB Benefit Plan to the same extent as similarly-situated employees of BHB (it being understood that inclusion of the employees of LSBG in the BHB Benefit Plans may occur at different times with respect to different plans). BHB shall cause each BHB Benefit Plan in which employees of LSBG are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the BHB Benefit Plans (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) the service of such employees with LSBG and its Subsidiaries to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by LSBG (other than for the defined benefit pension plan or any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements maintained by BHB); provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. Nothing herein shall limit the ability of BHB to amend or terminate any of the LSBG Benefit Plans or BHB Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms at any time; provided, however, that BHB shall continue to maintain the LSBG Benefit Plans (other than stock-based or incentive plans and the defined benefit pension plan and any nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements) for which there is a comparable BHB Benefit Plan until the LSBG Employees are permitted to participate in the BHB Benefit Plans, unless such BHB Benefit Plan has been frozen or terminated with respect to similarly-situated employees of BHB or any Subsidiary of BHB.
Termination of Employee Plans The Company shall have provided Parent with evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Parent, as to the termination of the benefit plans referred to in Section 5.9.
