Release Prior to Payment of Benefits contract clause examples

In no event shall payment of any benefits under the Plan be made prior to an Executive’s termination date or prior to the Release Date. If the Company determines that any payments or benefits provided under the Plan constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, and the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs at a time during the calendar year when the Release could become effective in the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs, then regardless of when the Release is returned to the Company and becomes effective, the Release will not be deemed effective any earlier than the latest permitted effective date for the Release (the “Release Deadline”). If the Company determines that any payments or benefits provided under the Plan constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, then except to the extent that payments may be delayed until the Delayed Initial Payment Date pursuant to the preceding paragraph, on the first regular payroll date following the Release Date, the Company shall # pay the Executive a lump sum amount equal to the sum of the benefit payments that the Executive would otherwise have received through such payroll date but for the delay in payment related to the effectiveness of the Release and # commence paying the balance, if any, of the benefits in accordance with the applicable payment schedule.

Termination and Severance Benefits. The Release does not affect your vested rights and eligibility for benefits under the Company 40l(k) Plan, or any other employee benefit plan covered by ERISA (other than a severance plan). Eligibility for benefits under these plans is determined by the applicable plan documents. The Release does not affect your right to reimbursement of expenses incurred but not reimbursed prior to the date you sign the Release, subject to the Company’s expense reimbursement policies. In particular, this Release shall not affect your right to the payment provided in Sections 5, 6 and 7 of the Employment Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, CFO shall receive the Severance Benefits described above, if and only if CFO duly executes and returns to the Company within the applicable time period set forth therein, but in no event more than forty-five days following Separation From Service, the Release and permits the Release to become effective in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding any other payment schedule set forth in this Agreement, none of the Severance Benefits will be paid or otherwise delivered prior to the effective date of the Release. Except to the extent that payments may be delayed until the Specified Employee Initial Payment Date pursuant to the preceding paragraph, on the first regular payroll pay day following the effective date of the Release, the Company will pay CFO the Severance Benefits CFO would otherwise have received under the Agreement on or prior to such date but for the delay in payment related to the effectiveness of the Release, with the balance of the Severance Benefits being paid as originally scheduled. All amounts payable under the Agreement will be subject to standard payroll taxes and deductions.

Payment Following Resignation/Release. Upon: 1) Employee’s Resignation and execution of this Agreement; 2) Employee’s execution of the Resignation General Release attached as Exhibit A hereto as on March 1, 2016 or thereafter; and 3) the expiration of the seven (7) day Revocation Period in the Resignation General Release without the revocation of such release, the Company shall pay Employee a lump sum payment of $443,500 (the “Resignation Payment”). The parties acknowledge that the Resignation Payment is consideration for Employee entering into this Agreement (and in particular his taking on the Restrictive Covenants in Section 4 of the Agreement) and his release of claims in the Resignation General Release. Employee acknowledges that the Resignation Payment is in addition to any compensation Employee has earned from the Company through the Transition Start Date and that Employee would not be entitled to the Resignation Payment but for Employee’s execution of this Agreement and Exhibit A, the Resignation General Release.

All unpaid severance or other benefits hereunder shall be suspended if Employee remains employed, or is re-employed, by the Company in any capacity during the Severance Period. Employee acknowledges and agrees that, except for this Agreement, Employee would have no right to receive all of the benefits described herein. Payment of the severance benefits provided for under this Agreement shall be contingent upon Employee’s timely execution, and nonrevocation, of a General Release and Separation Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Payment of the severance benefits provided for under this Agreement shall not commence prior to the effective date of said General Release and Separation Agreement.

Lump Sum Benefits Payment. The Company shall pay to you in a lump sum, on the payroll date on or after the first anniversary of your Termination Date, a cash amount equal to $65,000, less any deductions required by law or authorized by you ($32,500 of this gross amount is in addition to Plan benefits, and is provided under the circumstances of your separation of employment in connection with the Merger).

Payment of Accrued Benefits. Regardless of the reason for the termination of your employment with the Company, in connection with such termination the Company will pay you (on or within 30 days following your Termination Date) any base salary that had accrued but had not been paid (including accrued and unpaid vacation time) on or before your Termination Date, any reimbursement due to you for business expenses incurred by you on or before your Termination Date (in accordance with the Company’s business expense policies and procedures as may exist from time to time) and you will be entitled to any benefits that are due to you under the Company’s 401(k) plan in accordance with the terms of that plan. If you hold any stock options or other equity or equity-based awards granted by the Company, the terms and conditions applicable to those awards will control as to the consequences of a termination of your employment on those awards.

Absent your termination for Cause (as defined in the Letter Agreement) or voluntary resignation without Good Reason (as defined in the Letter Agreement) prior to the Resignation Date, the Company agrees to provide you the payment specified in the “Severance Benefits” paragraph of the Letter Agreement, subject to your signing the General Release and Waiver attached as Exhibit A (the “Release”) on or within 21 days following the Resignation Date and not revoking such Release.
