INTRODUCTION
Section 1.01 Purpose, Design
and Intent .
| (a) |
The purpose of the First Savings Bank, F.S.B. Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) is to assist
First Savings Bank, F.S.B. (the “Bank”) and its
affiliates in retaining the services of key employees until their
retirement, to induce such employees to use their best efforts to
enhance the business of the Bank and its affiliates, and to provide
certain supplemental retirement benefits to such
employees. |
| (b) |
The Plan, in relevant part, is intended to constitute an
unfunded “excess benefit plan” as defined in
Section 3(36) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended. In this respect, the Plan is specifically
designed to provide certain key employees with retirement benefits
that would have been provided under various tax-qualified
retirement plans sponsored by the Bank but for the applicable
limitations placed on benefits and contributions under such plans
by various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. |
