JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY We will make Annuity Payments, payable at the frequency elected, during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and the Joint Annuitant. Upon the death of either the Annuitant or Joint Annuitant, Annuity Payments will continue to be paid during the remaining lifetime of the survivor. Annuity Payments cease with the final Annuity Payment due prior to the last survivor's death. Option 4 -- Joint and Last Survivor Annuity with 10 Years of Annuity Payments Guaranteed -- We will make Annuity Payments, payable at the frequency elected, during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and the Joint Annuitant. Upon the death of either the Annuitant or Joint Annuitant, Annuity Payments will continue to be paid during the remaining lifetime of the survivor. If at the last death of the Annuitant and the Joint Annuitant, there have been less than 10 years of Annuity Payments made as selected, Annuity Payments will continue to be made for the remainder of the Guaranteed Period. You may elect to have the present value of the guaranteed Variable Annuity Payments remaining, as of the date due proof of the Annuitant's death is received at our Annuity Service Office, commuted at the Assumed Investment Return selected. We will require the return of this Contract and proof of death prior to the payment of any commuted values. ANNUITY -- You can elect to have the Annuity Option payable as Fixed Annuity Payments or Variable Annuity Payments or a combination. Fixed Annuity Payments are guaranteed as to dollar amount. Variable Annuity Payments will reflect the investment experience of the Separate Account in accordance with the allocation of the Account Value to the Subaccounts. Unless another payee is designated, you will be the payee of the Annuity Payments. The Adjusted Account Value will be applied to the applicable Fixed and/or Variable Annuity Tables to determine your first Annuity Payment. The Adjusted Account Value is determined on the Annuity Calculation Date which is a Business Day no more than five Business Days prior to the Annuity Date. The Adjusted Account Value is the Account Value, less any Premium and Other Taxes or other applicable taxes and less the Account Fee. The amount of the first payment for each $1,000 of Adjusted Account Value is shown in the Annuity Tables. FIXED ANNUITY -- Fixed Annuity Payments are based upon the Annuity Option elected, the Annuitant's Attained Age and sex, and the appropriate Fixed Annuity Option Table. If, as of the Annuity Calculation Date, the then-current Fixed Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of contracts provide an Annuity Payment greater than that which is guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, then the greater payment will be made. The dollar amount of the first Variable Annuity Payment is determined as follows. The first Variable Annuity Payment will be based upon the Annuity Option elected, the Annuitant's Attained Age and sex, and the appropriate Variable Annuity Option Table. If, as of the Annuity Calculation Date, the then current Variable Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of Contracts provide a first Annuity Payment greater than that which is guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, the greater payment will be made. The dollar amount of Variable Annuity Payments for each applicable Subaccount after the first payment is determined as follows:
No Designated Beneficiary If the Participant dies before the date distributions begin and there is no designated beneficiary as of September 30 of the year following the year of the Participant’s death, distribution of the Participant’s entire interest will be completed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary of the Participant’s death.
Death Prior to Commencement of Benefit Payments In the event the Participant should die while actively employed by the Plan Sponsor at any time after the date of this Plan but prior to his Normal Retirement Age, the Plan Sponsor will pay the Accrued Benefit in fifteen (15) equal annual installments to the Participant's Beneficiary. The payments shall commence to be paid on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Participant dies.
Designated Beneficiary Upon the death of the Owner or Joint Owner, the Designated Beneficiary will be the first person on the following list who is alive on the date of death:
Life Expectancy Life expectancy as computed by use of the Single Life Table in Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 of the Treasury regulations.
Qualified Joint and Survivor Annuity An immediate annuity for the life of the Participant with a survivor annuity for the life of the spouse which is not less than 50% and not more than 100% of the amount of the annuity which is payable during the joint lives of the Participant and the spouse and which is the amount of benefit which can be purchased with the Participant's vested account balance. The percentage of the survivor annuity under the Plan shall be 50% (unless a different percentage is elected by the Employer in the Adoption Agreement).
JOINT AND SURVIVOR ANNUITY The Advisory Committee must direct the Trustee to distribute a married or unmarried Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in the form of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, unless the Participant makes a valid waiver election (described in Section 6.05) within the 90 day period ending on the annuity starting date. If, as of the annuity starting date, the Participant is married, a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an immediate annuity which is purchasable with the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit and which provides a life annuity for the Participant and a survivor annuity payable for the remaining life of the Participant's surviving spouse equal to 50% of the amount of the annuity payable during the life of the Participant. If, as of the annuity starting date, the Participant is not married, a qualified joint and survivor annuity is an immediate life annuity for the Participant which is purchasable with the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit. On or before the annuity starting date, the Advisory Committee, without Participant or spousal consent, must direct the Trustee to pay the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit in a lump sum, in lieu of a qualified joint and survivor annuity, in accordance with Section 6.01, if the Participant's Nonforfeitable Accrued Benefit is not greater than $3,500. This Section 6.04(A) applies only to a Participant who has completed at least one Hour of Service with the Employer after August 22, 1984.
Termination Generally If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive (or to his authorized representative or estate) (i) any Base Salary earned through the Date of Termination, unpaid expense reimbursements (subject to, and in accordance with, Section 2(c) of this Agreement) and unused vacation that accrued through the Date of Termination on or before the time required by law but in no event more than 30 days after the Executive’s Date of Termination; and (ii) any vested benefits the Executive may have under any employee benefit plan of the Company through the Date of Termination, which vested benefits shall be paid and/or provided in accordance with the terms of such employee benefit plans (collectively, the “Accrued Benefit”).
Distributions Generally (a) Subject to Section 7.01 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall make distributions in accordance with this Article V. Such distributions shall be made by check mailed to each Certificateholder's address as it appears on the Certificate Register of the Certificate Registrar or, upon written request made to the Securities Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date by any Certificateholder owning an aggregate initial Certificate Principal Amount of at least $1,000,000, or in the case of a Class of Interest-Only Certificates or Residual Certificate, a Percentage Interest of not less than 100%, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified in the request and at the expense of such Certificateholder; provided, however, that the final distribution in respect of any Certificate shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the Certificate Registrar's Corporate Trust Office; provided, further, that the foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Class of Certificates as long as such Certificate remains a Book-Entry Certificate in which case all payments made shall be made through the Clearing Agency and its Clearing Agency Participants. Wire transfers will be made at the expense of the Holder requesting such wire transfer by deducting a wire transfer fee from the related distribution. Notwithstanding such final payment of principal of any of the Certificates, each Residual Certificate will remain outstanding until the termination of each REMIC and the payment in full of all other amounts due with respect to the Residual Certificates and at such time such final payment in retirement of any Residual Certificate will be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the Certificate Registrar's Corporate Trust Office. If any payment required to be made on the Certificates is to be made on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
Death of the Annuitant If the Annuitant is not an Owner and dies prior to the Annuity Date, Owner 1 will become the new Annuitant unless you designate otherwise. If any Owner is not an individual, we will treat the death of the Annuitant as the death of an Owner.
