Retention Incentive Benefit Sample Clauses

Retention Incentive Benefit. To induce Employee to remain in the employ of the Company for an extended period following the Effective Date of the Merger, the Company agrees to accrue an Incentive Benefit based upon continued employment. One third of the Incentive Benefit will become vested if Employee continues to be employed by the Company for a period of one year subsequent to the Effective Date, an additional one third of the Incentive Benefit will become vested if Employee continues to be employed by the Company for a period of three years subsequent to the Effective Date, and the final one third of the Incentive Benefit will become vested if Employee continues to be employed by the Company for a period of five years subsequent to the Effective Date. The total Incentive Benefit will be an amount equal to three times the sum of Employee's annual base salary in 1996 plus the bonus paid to Employee in 1996. The portion of the Incentive Benefit which has become vested will be paid to Employee or her heirs in equal monthly installments (less any required tax withholding) over a three-year period commencing on the date that Employee's employment with the Company eventually terminates for any reason, whether by normal retirement, early retirement, death, disability, voluntary resignation, or involuntary termination. Payments of the vested Incentive Benefit shall not reduce any amounts otherwise payable to Employee, whether under the Company's Supplemental Retirement Plan for Officers or otherwise.
