ERISA; Benefit Plans Sample Clauses

The "ERISA; Benefit Plans" clause defines the parties' responsibilities and representations regarding employee benefit plans governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Typically, this clause requires a party—often the seller in a transaction—to confirm that all benefit plans offered to employees are in compliance with ERISA and other applicable laws, and that there are no undisclosed liabilities or violations related to these plans. By including this clause, the agreement ensures transparency about the status and legal compliance of employee benefit plans, thereby protecting the other party from inheriting unexpected obligations or legal risks associated with such plans.
ERISA; Benefit Plans. Schedule 5.13 sets forth a list of all material deferred compensation, profit-sharing, retirement and pension plans and all material bonus and other material employee benefit or fringe benefit plans maintained, or with respect to which contributions have been made, by Seller with respect to current or former employees employed in connection with the power generation operations of the Generating Plants and the Gas Turbines (collectively, "Benefit Plans"). Seller and each trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which are or have ever been under common control, or which are or have ever been treated as a single employer, with Seller under Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code (an "ERISA Affiliate") have fulfilled their respective obligations under the minimum funding requirements of Section 302 of ERISA, and Section 412 of the Code, with respect to each Benefit Plan which is an "employee pension benefit plan" as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA and each such plan is in compliance in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except for such failures to fulfill such obligations or comply with such provisions which would not, individually or in the aggregate, create a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability under Section 4062(b) of ERISA, or any withdrawal liability under Section 4201 of ERISA, to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation in connection with any Benefit Plan which is subject to Title IV of ERISA which liability remains outstanding, and there has not been any reportable event (as defined in Section 4043 of ERISA) with respect to any such Benefit Plan (other than a reportable event with respect to which the 30-day notice requirement has been waived by the PBGC). Neither Seller nor any ERISA Affiliate or parent corporation, within the meaning of Section 4069(b) or Section 4212(c) of ERISA, has engaged in any transaction, within the meaning of Section 4069(b) or Section 4212(c)
ERISA; Benefit Plans. (a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) all employer and employee contributions (including insurance premiums) required by applicable law or by the terms of any Foreign Benefit Arrangement or Foreign Plan (including any policy held thereunder) have been made, or, if applicable, accrued in accordance with normal accounting practices; (ii) other than in relation to the UK Pension Scheme, the accrued benefit obligations of each Foreign Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Foreign Plan) with respect to all current and former participants do not exceed the assets of such Foreign Plan; (iii) each Foreign Plan that is required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in good standing with appl...
