An employee on an unpaid leave of absence of more than one (1) year for a purpose other than accepting an unclassified position in state civil service, or an employee on layoff that results in separation from service, may elect to be compensated at the final rate of pay for unused accumulated vacation leave. This accumulated vacation payout shall not exceed two hundred and seventy-five (275) hours, except in the case of the ASF Member's death. Calculation of an ASF Member's hourly rate for purposes of computing vacation separation payment shall be based upon a base of two thousand eighty-eight (2,088) working hours per year. Appointment periods of less than one (1) year in duration shall be prorated on this basis. Except as provided in Article 16, Section C, Subdivision 4 which pertains to the separation payment to retirees, the separation payment will be made in cash.

Such payments shall be subject to any and all applicable withholding, Social Security, employment, income and other taxes or assessments, if any, under the applicable tax law.

Payment of Accrued Benefits shall be made promptly in accordance with the Company’s prevailing practice with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) or, with respect to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), pursuant to the terms of the benefit plan or practice establishing such benefits; provided that payments pursuant to clause (iv)(B) shall be paid on the first day of the seventh month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs, unless the Executive’s Separation from Service is due to death, in which event such payment shall be made within 90 days of the date of Executive’s death.
Termination Benefits (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the voluntary or involuntary termination of Executive's employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Bank and the Company shall pay Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, as severance pay or liquidated damages, or both, a sum equal to three (3) times the average annual base salary paid to Executive for the three (3) years immediately preceding Executive's termination. In the event the Executive has not been employed by the Bank or Holding Company during all or part of the three immediately preceding years, the annual base salary paid to Executive for such periods shall, for purposes of this Section 3, be deemed to be equal to the Executive's initial base salary upon commencing employment adjusted to reflect assumed annual base salary increases of ten percent (10%). At the discretion of Executive, upon an election pursuant to Section 3(e) hereof, such payment may be made in a lump sum immediately upon severance of Executive's employment or paid, on a pro rata basis, semi-monthly during the thirty-six (36) months following the Executive's termination. (b) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Bank or the Company followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by Executive's voluntary or involuntary termination of employment, other than for Termination for Cause, the Bank shall cause to be continued life, health and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive prior to his severance. Such coverage shall cease upon the earlier of Executive's obtaining similar coverage by another employer or twelve (12) months from the date of Executive's termination. In the event the Executive obtains new employment and receives less coverage for life, health or disability, the Bank shall provide coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for the Executive prior to termination for a period of twelve (12) months. (c) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive will have such rights as specified in the Company's Incentive Stock Option Plan or any other employee benefit plan with respect to options and such other rights as may have been granted to Executive under such plans. (d) Upon a Change in Control, the Executive will be entitled to the benefits under the Bank's Management Recognition and Retention Plans. (e) On an annual basis Executive shall elect whether, in the event amounts are payable under Sections 3(a) hereof, such amounts shall be paid in a lump sum or on a pro rata basis pursuant to such sections. Such election shall be irrevocable for the year for which such election is made. (f) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3, in the event that: (i) the aggregate payments or benefits to be made or afforded to Executive under said paragraphs (the "Termination Benefits") would be deemed to include an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") or any successor thereto, and (ii) if such Termination Benefits were reduced to an amount (the "Non- Triggering Amount"), the value of which is one dollar ($1.00) less than an amount equal to three (3) times Executive's "base amount", as determined in accordance with said Section 280G, and the Non- Triggering Amount would be greater than the aggregate value of the Termination Benefits (without such reduction) minus the amount of tax required to be paid by Executive thereon by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Termination Benefits shall be reduced to the Non-Triggering Amount. The allocation of the reduction required hereby among the Termination Benefits provided by the preceding paragraphs of this Section 3 shall be determined by Executive. In the event that Executive receives the Non-Triggering Amount pursuant to this paragraph (f) and it is subsequently determined by the Internal Revenue Service or judicial authority that Executive is deemed to have received an amount in excess of the Non-Triggering Amount, the Bank or Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to the value of the payments or benefits in excess of the Non-Triggering Amount he is so deemed to have received.
Separation Benefits If this Agreement is terminated either by the Company without Cause in accordance with Section 6(c) (including the Company’s non-renewal of this Agreement) or by Employee resigning his employment for Good Reason in accordance with Section 6(d), the Company shall have no further obligation to Employee under this Agreement, except the Company shall provide the Accrued Obligations to Employee in accordance with Section 7(a) plus the following payments and benefits (collectively, the “Separation Benefits”) to Employee: (i) an amount equal to one times the sum of the Base Salary in effect immediately before the Termination Date plus the Annual Bonus received by Employee for the fiscal year preceding the Termination Date (or if Employee was employed for less than one full fiscal year prior to the Termination Date, the Annual Bonus for purposes of this Section 7 shall be the Annual Bonus payable during the current fiscal year at the target amount provided above) (together, the “Separation Pay”); and (ii) during the six-month period commencing on the Termination Date that Employee is eligible to elect and elects to continue coverage for himself and his eligible dependents under the Company’s group heath insurance plan pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), or similar state law, the Company shall reimburse Employee on a monthly basis for the difference between the amount Employee pays to effect and continue such coverage under COBRA and the employee contribution amount that active employees of the Company pay for the same or similar coverage; provided, however, that Employee shall notify the Company in writing within five days after he becomes eligible after the Termination Date for group health insurance coverage, if any, through subsequent employment or otherwise and the Company shall have no further reimbursement obligation after Employee becomes eligible for group health insurance coverage due to subsequent employment or otherwise. The Separation Pay shall be paid to Employee in a lump sum within 60 days of the Termination Date; provided, however, that no Separation Pay shall be paid to Employee unless the Company receives, on or within 55 days after the Termination Date, an executed and fully effective copy of the Release (as defined below). Any COBRA reimbursements due under this Section shall be made by the last day of the month following the month in which the applicable premiums were paid by Employee. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee shall not be entitled to the Separation Benefits if this Agreement is terminated (i) due to Employee’s death; (ii) by the Company due to Employee’s Inability to Perform; (iii) by the Company for Cause; (iv) by Employee without Good Reason; or (v) by non-renewal by Employee in accordance with Sections 4(b) and 6(f).
Severance Benefits (i) If the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to any of the Paragraphs set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, then the Executive (or his legal representative, as applicable) shall be entitled to receive the benefits which the Executive has accrued or earned or which have become payable under the Plans as of the Termination Date, but which have not yet been paid to the Executive. Payment of any such benefits shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Plans. (ii) If the Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Paragraph (e) or (f) in Section 3.1 hereof, and if the Executive is eligible for and timely elects continuation coverage pursuant to Section 601 et seq. of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, Section 4980B of the Code or similar state continuation coverage law (together, “COBRA”) under any insured or self-insured medical, dental or vision plan maintained by the Company (other than any health and/or dependent care flexible spending account plan or employee assistance plan), then, for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date, or until the Executive is no longer eligible for COBRA coverage under the particular plan, the Company will reimburse the Executive, on a taxable basis, for the cost of such COBRA coverage less the amount that the Executive would be required to contribute toward health coverage if he had remained an active employee of the Company. Such reimbursement payments will commence on the first payroll date of the month following the Termination Date and will be paid on the first payroll date of each subsequent month. The Executive shall not be entitled to reimbursement for the cost of any COBRA coverage elected separately by his current or former spouse or dependent child. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any such plan is fully insured, any such reimbursement requirement shall apply to the extent permitted by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (the “Health Care Law”). Any portion of the continued or replacement welfare benefits coverage provided for under this Section 3.3(c)(ii) which constitutes deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year (except with respect to annual, lifetime or similar limits under arrangements providing for the reimbursement of medical expenses under Section 105(b) of the Code); (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Severance Payments 5.1 The Company shall pay the Executive the payments described in this Section 5.1 ("Severance Payments") upon the termination of the Executive's employment following a Change in Control during the term of this Agreement, including the Executive's termination of employment for Good Reason, unless such termination is (a) by the Company for Cause, or (b) by reason of the Executive's Death or Disability. The Executive's employment shall be deemed to have been terminated following a Change in Control by the Company without Cause if the Executive's employment is terminated prior to a Change in Control without Cause at the direction (or action which constitutes a direction) of a Person who has entered into an agreement with the Company the consummation of which will constitute a Change in Control. (i) Within three (3) business days after the Date of Termination, the Company shall make a lump sum or monthly, at the Executive's option, cash severance payment to the Executive in an amount equal to: (x) the Executive's annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the event or circumstance upon which the Notice of Termination is based or in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; and (y) a pro-rated portion of Executive's Targeted Annual Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs. (ii) For a twelve (12) month period after the Date of Termination, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with medical and dental insurance benefits substantially similar to those that the Executive is receiving immediately prior to the Notice of Termination. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to this Section 5.1(ii) shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by or made available to the Executive without cost during the twelve (12) month period following the Executive's termination of employment (and any such benefits actually received by the Executive shall be reported to the Company by the Executive). 5.2 The Company also shall pay to the Executive all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in disputing the non-payment of Severance Payments in connection with a termination which entitles the Executive to Severance Payments. Such payments shall be made within five (5) business days after delivery of the Executive's written request for payment accompanied with such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company reasonably may require.
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.
