All such plans, agreements, programs, policies and arrangements shall be collectively referred to as the “Plans”.
No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Indenture or the Notes or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.

Employees; Benefit Plans (a) Following the Closing Date and except to the extent an alternative treatment is set forth in this Section 5.14, NBT may choose to maintain any or all of the Salisbury Benefit Plans in its sole discretion, and Salisbury and Salisbury Bank shall cooperate with NBT in order to effect any plan terminations to be made as of the Effective Time. For the period commencing at the Effective Time and ending 12 months after the Effective Time (or until the applicable Continuing Employee’s earlier termination of employment), NBT shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each employee of Salisbury Bank who continues with the Surviving Bank as of the Closing Date (a “Continuing Employee”) (i) a base salary or a base rate of pay at least equal to the base salary or base rate of pay provided to similarly situated employees of NBT or any Subsidiary of NBT and (ii) other benefits (other than severance, termination pay or equity compensation) at least substantially comparable in the aggregate to the benefits provided to similarly situated employees of NBT or any Subsidiary of NBT. For any Salisbury Benefit Plan terminated for which there is a comparable NBT Benefit Plan of general applicability, NBT shall take all commercially reasonable action so that Continuing Employees shall be entitled to participate in such NBT Benefit Plan to the same extent as similarly-situated employees NBT (it being understood that inclusion of the employees of Salisbury and Salisbury Bank in the NBT Benefit Plans may occur at different times with respect to different plans). NBT shall cause each NBT Benefit Plan in which Continuing Employees are eligible to participate to take into account for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the NBT Benefit Plans (but not for purposes of benefit accrual) the service of such employees with Salisbury or Salisbury Bank to the same extent as such service was credited for such purpose by Salisbury or Salisbury Bank; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or retroactive application. Nothing herein shall limit the ability of NBT to amend or terminate any of the Salisbury Benefit Plans or NBT Benefit Plans in accordance with their terms at any time. Following the Closing Date, NBT shall honor, in accordance with Xxxxxxxxx’x policies and procedures in effect as of the date hereof, any employee expense reimbursement obligations of Xxxxxxxxx for out-of-pocket expenses incurred during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs by any Continuing Employee.
Newly Hired Employees All employees hired to an insurance eligible position must make their benefit elections by their initial effective date of coverage as defined in this Article, Section 5C. Insurance eligible employees will automatically be enrolled in basic life coverage. If employees eligible for a full Employer Contribution do not choose a health plan administrator and a primary care clinic by their initial effective date, and do not waive medical coverage, they will be enrolled in a Benefit Level Two clinic (or Level One, if available) that meets established access standards in the health plan with the largest number of Benefit Level One and Two clinics in the county of the employee’s residence at the beginning of the insurance year. If an employee does not choose a health plan administrator and primary care clinic by their initial effective date, but was previously covered as a dependent immediately prior to their initial effective date, they will be defaulted to the plan administrator and primary care clinic in which they were previously enrolled.
