Final Average Monthly Earnings definition

Final Average Monthly Earnings means a Participant’s average monthly Earnings during the 60 consecutive calendar month period ending on the last day of the last full month immediately preceding or coinciding with the date on which the Participant’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate terminates.

If a Participant becomes entitled to a benefit under the Plan before he or she has received Earnings for a period of five consecutive calendar years, such Participant’s Final Average Monthly Earnings shall be determined by dividing the total Earnings the Participant has received during the full and partial calendar years of his or her employment by the number of months during which such Earnings were received. The Final Average Monthly Earnings of a Participant who has had a Termination shall be determined by taking into account any severance payments to which the Participant is entitled, whether or not the Participant has yet received such payments.Notwithstanding the foregoing, on and after a Participant’s Freeze Date, the Participant’s Final Average Monthly Earnings shall equal his or her Final Average Monthly Earnings determined as of such Freeze Date.
