Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans Effective on or before the Distribution Date, Columbia shall adopt, establish and maintain nonqualified deferred compensation plans for the benefit of employees of the Columbia Parties (the “Columbia Deferred Compensation Plans”) and shall establish one or more grantor trusts to be a source of providing benefits thereunder (the “Columbia Rabbi Trusts”) that in each case shall be substantially similar to the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans and the grantor trusts maintained by NiSource with respect to the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans (the “NiSource Rabbi Trusts”). As of the Distribution Date, the Columbia Parties shall assume and thereafter be solely responsible for all existing and future liabilities relating to Business Employees’ (and Deceased Business Employee survivors’ and beneficiaries’) (a) benefits accrued under the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans prior to the Distribution Date and (b) benefits that accrue under the Columbia Deferred Compensation Plans on and after the Distribution Date. All beneficiary designations made by Business Employees and by survivors and beneficiaries of Deceased Business Employees under the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans shall, to the extent applicable, be transferred to, and be in full force and effect under, the Columbia Deferred Compensation Plans until such beneficiary designations are replaced or revoked by the Business Employee (or the survivor or beneficiary of the Deceased Business Employee) who made the beneficiary designation. Following the Distribution Date, the NiSource Parties shall have no liability or obligation with respect to the benefits accrued by such Business Employees or by such survivors or beneficiaries of Deceased Business Employees under any of the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans or with respect to any benefits accrued under the Columbia Deferred Compensation Plans. As soon as administratively practicable after the Distribution Date, NiSource shall cause the NiSource Rabbi Trusts to transfer to the Columbia Rabbi Trusts cash, life insurance policies or other assets having an aggregate fair market value equal to (i) the aggregate fair market value of all assets held in the NiSource Rabbi Trusts as of the Distribution Date multiplied by (ii) a percentage, the numerator of which shall be the lump sum present value of the benefits assumed by the Columbia Deferred Compensation Plans pursuant to this Section 3.03 and the denominator of which shall be the lump sum present value of all benefits accrued under the NiSource Deferred Compensation Plans immediately prior to the Distribution Date.
Deferred Compensation Plan Manager shall be eligible to participate in the First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Plan.
Deferred Compensation Plans Borrower has no pension, profit sharing or other compensatory or similar plan (herein called a “Plan”) providing for a program of deferred compensation for any employee or officer. No fact or situation, including but not limited to, any “Reportable Event,” as that term is defined in Section 4043 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 as the same may be amended from time to time (“Pension Reform Act”), exists or will exist in connection with any Plan of Borrower which might constitute grounds for termination of any Plan by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or cause the appointment by the appropriate United States District Court of a Trustee to administer any such Plan. No “Prohibited Transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of the Pension Reform Act exists or will exist upon the execution and delivery of the Agreement or the performance by the parties hereto of their respective duties and obligations hereunder. Borrower will (1) at all times make prompt payment of contributions required to meet the minimum funding standards set forth in Sections 302 through 305 of the Pension Reform Act with respect to each of its Plans; (2) promptly, after the filing thereof, furnish to Agent copies of each annual report required to be filed pursuant to Section 103 of the Pension Reform Act in connection with each Plan for each Plan Year, including any certified financial statements or actuarial statements required pursuant to said Section 103; (3) notify Agent immediately of any fact, including, but not limited to, any Reportable Event arising in connection with any Plan which might constitute grounds for termination thereof by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or for the appointment by the appropriate United States District Court of a Trustee to administer the Plan; and (4) notify Agent of any “Prohibited Transaction” as that term is defined in Section 406 of the Pension Reform Act. Borrower will not (a) engage in any Prohibited Transaction or (b) terminate any such Plan in a manner which could result in the imposition of a Lien on the Property of Borrower pursuant to Section 4068 of the Pension Reform Act.

Benefits Unfunded All rights of Executive and his spouse or other beneficiary under this Agreement shall at all times be entirely unfunded and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to segregating any assets of Employer for payment of any amounts due hereunder. Neither Executive nor his spouse or other beneficiary shall have any interest in or rights against any specific assets of Employer, and Executive and his spouse or other beneficiary shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of Employer.
