All UTC Shares notionally credited to participants’ accounts under any of the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be adjusted from and after the Effective Time so that the number of UTC Shares notionally credited as of the Effective Time to each participant’s account shall be equal to the product, rounded to three decimal places, obtained by multiplying (a) the number of UTC Shares notionally credited under such UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plan to such participant immediately prior to the Effective Time by (b) the UTC Adjustment Ratio. Prior to the Effective Time, UTC shall provide Carrier with a list of Carrier Group Employees and Otis with a list of Otis Group Employees, in each case, who are participants in the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans. If an Otis Group Employee on such list terminates employment with the Otis Group, Otis shall, or shall cause a member of the Otis Group to, provide written notice to UTC of such employee’s termination of employment within twenty (20) days of such employee’s termination of employment. If a Carrier Group Employee on such list terminates employment with the Carrier Group, Carrier shall, or shall cause a member of the Carrier Group to, provide written notice to UTC of such employee’s termination of employment within twenty (20) days of such employee’s termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Carrier shall be liable, and shall reimburse UTC, for any Liabilities of UTC arising with respect to the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans as a result of any failure by a member of the Carrier Group to provide proper notice of an employment termination that directly results in the inability of UTC to administer the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans in compliance with Section 409A of the Code with respect to any Carrier Group Employee who participated thereunder, and (ii) Otis shall be liable, and shall reimburse UTC, for any Liabilities of UTC arising with respect to the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans as a result of any failure by a member of the Otis Group to provide proper notice of an employment termination that directly results in the inability of UTC to administer the UTC Retained Deferred Compensation Plans in compliance with Section 409A of the Code with respect to any Otis Group Employee who participated thereunder.
