Employees; Employee Benefit Plans (a) Section 5.11(a) of the TD Banknorth Disclosure Schedule contains a true and complete list of each “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of ERISA, including multiemployer plans within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(37)), stock purchase, stock option, severance, employment, loan, change-in-control, fringe benefit, collective bargaining, bonus, incentive, deferred compensation and all other employee benefit plans, agreements, programs, policies or other arrangements, whether or not subject to ERISA (including any funding mechanism therefor now in effect or required in the future as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise) under which any current or former employee, director or independent contractor of TD Banknorth or any of its Subsidiaries has any present or future right to benefits and under which TD Banknorth or any of its Subsidiaries has any present or future liability. All such plans, agreements, programs, policies and arrangements shall be collectively referred to as the “TD Banknorth Benefit Plans.”
Employee Benefits; ERISA (a) Schedule 4.17 contains a true and complete list of each material bonus, deferred compensation, incentive compensation, stock purchase, stock option, severance, change-in-control, or termination pay, hospitalization or other medical, life or other insurance, supplemental unemployment benefits, profit sharing, pension, or retirement plan, program, agreement or arrangement, and each other material employee benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement, sponsored, maintained or contributed to or required to be contributed to by any Conveyed Entity, any Subsidiary thereof or by any trade or business, whether or not incorporated (an "ERISA Affiliate"), that together with any Conveyed Entity would be deemed a "single employer" within the meaning of Section 4001(b)(1) of ERISA, for the benefit of any employee or former employee of any Conveyed Entity, Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate (the "Plans"). Schedule 4.17 identifies each of the Plans that is an "employee welfare benefit plan," or "employee pension benefit plan" as such terms are defined in Sections 3(1) and 3(2) of ERISA (such plans being hereinafter referred to collectively as the "ERISA Plans"). No Conveyed Entity, Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate has any formal plan or commitment, whether legally binding or not, to create any additional Plan or modify or change any existing Plan that would affect any employee or former employee of any Conveyed Entity, any Subsidiary thereof or any ERISA Affiliate except to the extent that any such creation, modification or change could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability of a Conveyed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries.
Employee Benefit Plans; ERISA (a) Except as disclosed in the Parent SEC Documents, there are no “employee benefit plans” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA) nor any other employee benefit or fringe benefit arrangements, practices, contracts, policies or programs other than programs merely involving the regular payment of wages, commissions, or bonuses established, maintained or contributed to by Parent. Any plans listed in the Parent SEC Documents are hereinafter referred to as the “Parent Employee Benefit Plans.”
Employee Benefit Plans Except as could not reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Employee Benefit Plan and Foreign Pension Plan (and each related trust, insurance contract or fund) has been documented, funded and administered in compliance with all applicable Laws, including, without limitation, ERISA and the Code; (ii) the sponsor or adopting employer of each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received or timely applied for a favorable determination letter, or is entitled to rely on a favorable opinion letter, as applicable, from the IRS indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter or opinion letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status; (iii) no liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the IRS, any Employee Benefit Plan or any Trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or is expected to be incurred by any ERISA Party (other than contributions made to an Employee Benefit Plan or such Trust or expenses paid on their behalf, in each case in the ordinary course); (iv) no ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (v) the present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan) did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Pension Plan; (vi) no ERISA Party is in “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan; (vii) no ERISA Party has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Foreign Pension Plan; and (viii) the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of Holdings’ and the Borrowers’ most recently ended Fiscal Year for which audited financial statements are available on the basis of the actuarial assumptions described in Holdings’ audited financial statements for such Fiscal Year, did not exceed the aggregate of (A) the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities and (B) the amount then reserved on Holdings’ consolidated balance sheet in respect of such liabilities (and such amount reserved on Holdings’ consolidated balance sheet does not constitute a material liability to Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole).
Employee Benefit Matters Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect: (a) each “employee benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)) providing benefits to any current or former employee, officer or director of the Company or any member of its “Controlled Group” (defined as any organization which is a member of a controlled group of corporations within the meaning of Section 414 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) that is sponsored, maintained or contributed to by the Company or any member of its Controlled Group and for which the Company or any member of its Controlled Group would have any liability, whether actual or contingent (each, a “Plan”) has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including ERISA and the Code; (b) with respect to each Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA (including, for purposes of this clause (b), any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA that the Company or any member of its Controlled Group previously maintained or contributed to in the six years prior to the Signing Date), (1) no “reportable event” (within the meaning of Section 4043(c) of ERISA), other than a reportable event for which the notice period referred to in Section 4043(c) of ERISA has been waived, has occurred in the three years prior to the Signing Date or is reasonably expected to occur, (2) no “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code), whether or not waived, has occurred in the three years prior to the Signing Date or is reasonably expected to occur, (3) the fair market value of the assets under each Plan exceeds the present value of all benefits accrued under such Plan (determined based on the assumptions used to fund such Plan) and (4) neither the Company nor any member of its Controlled Group has incurred in the six years prior to the Signing Date, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA (other than contributions to the Plan or premiums to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in the ordinary course and without default) in respect of a Plan (including any Plan that is a “multiemployer plan”, within the meaning of Section 4001(c)(3) of ERISA); and (c) each Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to its qualified status that has not been revoked, or such a determination letter has been timely applied for but not received by the Signing Date, and nothing has occurred, whether by action or by failure to act, which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss, revocation or denial of such qualified status or favorable determination letter.
