Employees and Benefits (a) As of the Closing, Seller shall terminate the employment of all of its Employees identified on Schedule 5.5(a) of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Subject Employees”). Schedule 5.5(a) of the Disclosure Schedule hereto may be amended from time to time prior to the Closing to (i) delete any individuals who are no longer employed by Seller or (ii) upon the mutual written agreement of Purchaser and Seller, add or remove any other individuals. Purchaser, in cooperation with Seller, shall, at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date and effective as of the Closing Date, extend a written offer of employment to those employees selected by Purchaser, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Selected Employees”), at a level and with responsibilities that are substantially commensurate with their employment with Seller and at a wage or salary and other compensation not less than the respective wages or salaries and other compensation specified for such Selected Employees on Schedule 3.11 of the Disclosure Schedule. Those Selected Employees who accept offers of employment with Purchaser and who become employees of Purchaser as of the Closing Date are referred to as “Transferred Employees.” Purchaser agrees that in the event that it determines that it may not offer employment to sufficient numbers of employees to avoid the notice and other requirements of the WARN Act, Purchaser will give Seller immediate notice thereof which will be sufficiently in advance of the Closing of the purchase of the Business that Seller will be able to comply with the notice requirements of the WARN Act and Purchaser will indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from any liability or obligations under the WARN Act if Purchaser should fail to do so or if Seller otherwise incurs liability under the WARN Act as a result of Purchaser’s actions in connection with this transaction.
Non-Delegation of Employee's Rights The obligations, rights and benefits of Employee hereunder are personal and may not be delegated, assigned or transferred in any manner whatsoever, nor are such obligations, rights or benefits subject to involuntary alienation, assignment or transfer.
Other Rights and Benefits Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit Executive’s continuing or future participation in any benefit, bonus, incentive or other plans, programs, policies or practices provided by the Company and for which Executive may otherwise qualify, nor shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as Executive may have under other agreements with the Company except as provided in Article 1, Article 5, Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 above. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, amounts that are vested benefits or that Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of the Company at or subsequent to the date of a Change in Control shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program.
Plan Benefits (iii) Subject to your execution of the Release (as defined below), you will become vested in a pro rata portion of any of your unvested restricted stock awards that are outstanding on your Termination Date provided the applicable performance criteria, if any, are met. Such pro rata portion shall be equal to the percentage of the total vesting period, measured in days, in which you remained employed by Tyson multiplied by the number of shares subject to the award. Any award subject to this subsection (iii) shall not be paid until such time as it would otherwise have been paid if under the terms of the award it was subject to performance criteria and will only be paid if any applicable performance criteria are met;
Contractual Rights to Benefits This Agreement establishes and vests in the Executive a contractual right to the benefits to which he is entitled hereunder. However, nothing herein contained shall require or be deemed to require, or prohibit or be deemed to prohibit, the Company to segregate, earmark, or otherwise set aside any funds or other assets, in trust or otherwise, to provide for any payments to be made or required hereunder.
Rights and Benefits In all policies of D&O Insurance, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee the same rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors, if the Indemnitee is a director; or of the Company’s officers, if the Indemnitee is not a director of the Company but is an officer; or of the Company’s key employees, if the Indemnitee is not a director or officer but is a key employee.
Lifetime Benefits The Vested part of a Participant's Account will be available for distribution to the Participant when the Participant retires at Normal (or Early) Retirement Age, dies, and, if elected in the Adoption Agreement, attains age 59-1/2 or Terminates Service.
Company Not to Diminish Benefits of Rights The Company covenants and agrees that after the earlier of the Shares Acquisition Date or Distribution Date it will not, except as permitted by Section 23, Section 26 or Section 27, take (or permit any Subsidiary to take) any action if at the time such action is taken it is reasonably foreseeable that such action will substantially diminish or otherwise eliminate the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights.
No Other Severance Benefits Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the Executive covenants and agrees that he shall not be entitled to any other form of severance benefits from the Company, including, without limitation, benefits otherwise payable under any of the Company's regular severance policies, in the event his employment hereunder ends for any reason and, except with respect to obligations of the Company expressly provided for herein, the Executive unconditionally releases the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and stockholders, or any of them, from any and all claims, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement or under any severance or termination arrangements of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates for compensation or benefits in connection with his employment or the termination thereof.

The Employee's Base Salary shall be reviewed annually by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee of Avocent Corporation.
