Exhibit 10(y)
SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT
This Supplemental Agreement is made and entered into as of June 30, 1997
by and between Raychem Corporation and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx to amend paragraph 6 of
the letter agreement dated as of August 11, 1995 between the parties (the
"Letter Agreement"), and to clarify certain matters in accordance with paragraph
7(h) thereof.
1. Capitalized terms used without definition in this Agreement have the meanings
assigned in the Letter Agreement.
2. Paragraph 6 of the Letter Agreement is amended as follows:
Raychem has lent Xx. Xxxxxxx $1,000,000 in accordance with said
paragraph 6. The loan is interest free and is secured by a deed of trust second
only to the primary lender on Xx. Xxxxxxx'x Bay Area home. The current principal
amount of the Raychem loan is $800,000 (the "Remaining Principal"). Unless Xx.
Xxxxxxx'x employment is earlier terminated, the Remaining Principal will be due
and payable on October 1, 2000. Raychem will pay Xx. Xxxxxxx a bonus equal to
the Remaining Principal on September 19, 2000 if he is employed at such date;
such bonus will be in addition to any bonus to which Xx. Xxxxxxx may be entitled
under Raychem's officer bonus program as in effect at the time. It is
anticipated that Xx. Xxxxxxx will use the bonus to repay the Remaining
Principal.
If Xx. Xxxxxxx'x employment with Raychem is terminated by Raychem in a
Covered Termination of Employment (as defined in the Termination Policy) or if
his employment is terminated because of his disability by reason of physical or
mental incapacity to perform his duties, the Remaining Principal shall be due
and payable 24 months from the date of his employment termination; the Remaining
Principal will bear interest during such 24-month period at the prime rate as in
effect from time to time at Raychem's principal bank, and shall be due and
payable with the Remaining Principal payment. In addition, under these
circumstances Raychem will pay Xx. Xxxxxxx a bonus equal to $200,000 for each
September 19, beginning September 19, 1997 and ending September 19, 2000, on
which Xx. Xxxxxxx was employed by Raychem and/or which occurs during the Full
Salary Period. Such bonus shall be payable no later than two weeks prior to the
date at which the Remaining Principal is due and payable. It is anticipated that
Xx. Xxxxxxx will use the bonus to repay the Remaining Principal.
If Xx. Xxxxxxx terminates his employment in a Voluntary Termination (as
defined in the Termination Policy), the Remaining Principal shall be due and
payable 12 months from the date of his employment termination; the Remaining
Principal will bear interest during
2
such 12-month period at the prime rate, and shall be due and payable with the
Remaining Principal payment. If Xx. Xxxxxxx'x employment is terminated by
Raychem in a Termination for Cause (as defined in the Termination Policy), the
Remaining Principal shall be due and payable 24 months from the date of his
employment termination. The Remaining Principal shall bear interest during such
24-month period at the prime rate, and interest shall be due and payable with
the Remaining Principal. In addition, under these circumstances Raychem will pay
Xx. Xxxxxxx a bonus equal to $200,000 for each September 19, beginning September
19, 1997 and ending September 19, 2000, on which Xx. Xxxxxxx was employed by
Raychem. Such bonus shall be payable no later than two weeks prior to the date
at which the Remaining Principal payment is due and payable. Xx. Xxxxxxx will
use the bonus to repay the Remaining Principal.
3. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Raychem Corporation
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, Xx. Xxxxxxx'x benefit thereunder shall
be calculated as if his benefit under Raychem's defined benefit pension plan
(the "Basic Plan") is calculated by taking into account six additional years of
service for Raychem ending September 29, 1995 for which he was paid no less than
$650,000 per year and provided, however, that the amount of the increased
benefit otherwise attributable to such additional years of service shall be
reduced by the actuarial equivalent (as determined under the Basic Plan) of
$55,428 payable annually to Xx. Xxxxxxx for the rest of his life beginning on
the first day of the month following his 65th birthday (4/1/2007).
4. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, all of the terms
and conditions of the Letter Agreement remain in full force and effect.
