  • Supplemental Retirement Benefits The terms and conditions for the payment of supplemental retirement benefits are set forth in a separate written agreement between the parties.

  • Supplemental Retirement Benefit The Executive will be entitled to receive a monthly Supplemental Retirement Benefit (the "Supplemental Retirement Benefit") commencing on the first day of the month coincident with or following the later of the Executive's termination of employment or attainment of age 60 and continuing for the remainder of his life. Unless otherwise elected by the Executive, the Supplemental Retirement Benefit shall be payable in the form of a 50% joint and survivor annuity which shall be unreduced for the actuarial value of the survivor's benefit. If the Executive's spouse at the time of his death is not more than four years younger than the Executive, the survivor benefit shall be equal to 50% of the Executive's benefit and shall be payable to his spouse for the remainder of the spouse's life. If the Executive's spouse at the time of his death is more than four years younger than the Executive, the benefit payable to the spouse shall be reduced to a benefit having the same actuarial value as the benefit that would have been payable had the spouse been four years younger than the Executive. The Executive shall also have the right to elect a 100% joint and survivor annuity, on an actuarially-reduced basis or a lump-sum payment, on an actuarially-reduced basis (if the Executive makes a timely lump-sum election which avoids constructive receipt), or any other form of payment available or provided under the "Supplemental Plans" defined in this Section 8. Actuarial reductions shall be based on the actual ages of the Executive and his spouse at the time of retirement. If the Executive is not married at the time of his retirement, actuarial adjustments shall be made as if the Executive had a spouse with the same date of birth as the Executive. In the event that the Executive elects a form of payment other than the automatic 50% joint and survivor annuity or other than a lump sum payment, and remarries subsequent to retirement, the benefits payable under this Section shall be actuarially adjusted at the time of the Executive's death to reflect the age of the subsequent spouse. If the Executive elects a lump sum payment at retirement, no further benefits will be payable under this Section. The amount of the monthly retirement benefit as an unreduced 50% joint and survivor annuity shall be equal to the product of (A) the "Service Percentage" multiplied by (B) the Executive's "Final Average Compensation," with such product reduced by (C) the total monthly amount of benefits (measured for purposes of this offset as if the Executive elected a 50% joint and survivor annuity payable as of the date benefits commence under this Agreement) provided to or in respect of the Executive under all tax-qualified retirement plans and related excess benefit and other benefit restoration plans maintained by the Company or the Bank for the Executive, including the Mellon Bank Benefit Restoration Plan and the Mellon Bank IRC Section 401(a)(17) Plan (the "Supplemental Plans") and benefits paid pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Mellon Financial Corporation Elective Deferred Compensation Plan for Senior Officers, but not including payments of any compensation previously deferred under any deferred compensation plan of the Company or the Bank, or interest thereon, or payments from the Mellon Financial Corporation Retirement Savings Plan, a 401(k) plan. The Executive owns interests in life insurance policies (the "Policies") as a participant in the Mellon Bank Senior Executive Life Insurance Plan. The Supplemental Retirement Benefit payable to the Executive hereunder shall be further reduced by the Executive's interest in the cash value of the Policies. This reduction shall be calculated in the same manner as under the Supplemental Plans. In the event the United States federal income tax laws change or are interpreted so as to cause Executive's ownership interests in Policies to be subject to taxation, the Executive and the Company will negotiate in good faith to mitigate the effects of such change. The Executive shall be vested in the Supplemental Retirement Benefit provided under this Paragraph as of February 1, 1998. The Executive shall elect the form of payment of his Supplemental Retirement Benefit at the same time and subject to the same provisions (including timing requirements and all reductions and/or penalties for late elections) as provided under the Supplemental Plans. After retirement, the Executive (or beneficiary who is receiving payments) may elect to receive his remaining Supplemental Retirement Benefits which are payable hereunder in a lump sum payment, calculated in the same manner and subject to the same reductions as under the Supplemental Plans. In the event that the Executive elects a form of payment of his Supplemental Retirement Benefits which provides for payments to continue after his death and the Executive dies without having received all payments of Supplemental Retirement Benefits that may be payable hereunder, then the unpaid balance of such benefits shall be paid in accordance with the form of payment elected by the Executive. Any such remaining payments shall be made to the Executive's beneficiary provided under the Supplemental Plans, subject to any contrary written instructions from the Executive designating a different beneficiary for such payments. The Executive may also elect, upon not less than 12 months' advance written notice, to have the payment of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit commence on the first day of any month coincident with or after the later of his termination of employment or attainment of age 55. In this event, the Supplemental Retirement Benefit will be subject to an early payment reduction amount equal to 0.5% per month (6% per annum) for each month that payments commence before attainment of age 60. In the event of such retirement, the Term and the Company's obligations to make payments under Section 4 above shall cease as of the retirement date. The Executive may also elect, upon not less than 12 months' advance written notice prior to the commencement of Supplemental Retirement Benefit payments, to have the lump sum value of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled applied to the purchase of a single premium annuity in a form and from an issuer selected or concurred in by the Executive. In the event of such an election by the Executive, the sole responsibilities of the Company shall be to apply the amount of the lump sum value of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit to the purchase of the annuity selected or concurred in by the Executive and the distribution of such annuity to the Executive. Thereafter, the Executive shall look solely to the issuer of the annuity for payment on account of or in connection with the Supplemental Retirement Benefit and agrees that the Company and its affiliates, and each of their officers, directors and employees, shall have no further liability in respect of the Supplemental Retirement Benefit or by reason of the application of the lump sum value as elected by the Executive or the selection of the form or issuer of the annuity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Executive receive any payments under this Section 8 or be deemed to be retired from the Company while the Executive is entitled to payments under Paragraph 6(a) or Paragraph 6(b) or during any period for which the Executive receives additional service credit in respect of a "Qualifying Termination" as provided in clause (B) of the definition of "Service Percentage" below. As used in this Section 8:

  • Deferred Salary Leave Plan (1) The deferred salary leave plan enables Employees to take one (1) year of leave from the Public Service and to finance this leave through a deferral of Salary in previous years. (2) Under this plan, participating Employees agree to defer a portion of their Salary for four (4) consecutive Academic Years and the Employer agrees to grant the Employee leave in the fifth year, and to use the amounts deferred in the previous four (4) years to pay the Employee's Salary during the period of the leave. Participation in the plan is subject to operational requirements. (3) During the period of leave, Employees may engage in whatever activities they wish. (4) The individual plan for each participating Employee is a six (6) Academic Year period consisting of the following: (a) The first four consecutive years during which the Employee draws 80% of Salary earned in each of the four years and defers the remaining 20%; (b) The fifth consecutive year in which the Employee takes the leave, and is paid from the amounts deferred above plus any interest earned on the deferred funds; and (c) The sixth consecutive year in which the Employee returns to employment with the Public Service of Nunavut for a minimum of one year. (5) There is no maximum number of Employees allowed to enter the plan. (6) Executive Directors ensure that approved leaves do not impair the future operation of their School Operations. (7) Employees make written application to their Executive Director. Applications should state the proposed start of the Salary deferral and the proposed period of leave. (8) The Executive Director reviews the application and the requirements of the School Operations and notifies the Employee and the respective Department of Finance, Pay and Benefits Officer at least six (6) weeks prior to the start of Salary Deferral. (9) Each participant will sign an agreement covering the details of the plan. (10) In each year of the plan preceding the period of the leave, the Employee will be paid 80% of the applicable Salary. The remaining 20% of Salary will be deferred and this amount will be retained in trust by the Employer to finance payments during the period of leave. (11) The deferred Salary will be placed in a trust fund by the Government and any returns on the investment of the trust will be used to pay the participant during the period of leave. (a) The money held in trust will be pooled with other Government funds and the Employee will be credited with the average rate of return on those funds. (b) Investments will be restricted to those eligible under Section 57(1) of the Financial Administration Act. (c) A statement of the individual's account will be provided at each anniversary of the plan. (12) During the period of leave, the participant shall receive, if on a one (1) year leave, one twenty-sixth (1/26) of the amount deferred plus any trust fund returns in each pay period, less applicable deductions. No additional payments to the participant can be made such as loans, subsidies, Allowances or Salary. (13) Income tax will be deducted in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Act and its Regulations. (14) During the first four (4) years of the plan, the Employer shall provide Employee benefits at a level equivalent to 100% of Salary. Benefits and premium recoveries for the period of leave will be governed by the rules for leave without pay. All benefits cease except Health Care Plan, superannuation, supplementary death benefit, disability insurance, and dental coverage. Premiums for these plans are payable by the Employee. Arrangements can be made to have deductions from pay for some of these benefits. (15) Upon return from leave, the Department will place the Employee in the position held at the commencement of the leave. (16) Returning Employees will have their qualifications re-assessed and placed on the appropriate pay scale. (17) The Employer shall cancel participation in the plan and shall refund, within 60 days, the total of the deferred Salary plus earnings from the plan if the Employee dies or employment is otherwise terminated. (18) Where operational requirements would not be met if the Employee proceeded on leave in the fifth year, or where exceptional changes in personal circumstances make the leave unfeasible, the Employer will give the Employee the choice of the following: (a) withdrawing from the plan and taking a refund of the total in the deferred salary account; or (b) deferring the period of leave to either the sixth or the seventh academic consecutive year or to some other mutually agreeable time. (19) Upon withdrawal from the plan the total in the account will be repaid to the Employee within 60 days from the notification of withdrawal.
