ADAMS dated                      , 2008 (hereinafter “Employment Agreement”);

               NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

H.

 

“Separation from Service” means that Adams ceases to be employed by UBS or an affiliated or successor entity to UBS for any reason, voluntary or involuntary. Adams Separates from Service with UBS or an affiliated or successor entity to UBS if he dies, retires, separates from service because of Adams’ disability, or otherwise has a termination of employment with UBS or any affiliated or successor entity to UBS. However, that the employment relationship is treated as continuing intact while Adams is on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence (such as temporary employment by the government) if the period of such leave does not exceed six months, or if longer, so long as Adams’ right to reemployment with UBS is provided either by statute or by contract and provided further that if the period of leave exceeds six months and Adams’ right to reemployment is not provided either by statute or by contract, the employment relationship is deemed to terminate on the first date immediately following such six-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where a leave of absence is due to any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than six months, where such impairment causes Adams to be unable to perform the duties of his or her position of employment or any substantially similar position of employment, a 29-month period of absence shall be substituted for such six-month period. In addition, notwithstanding any of

 


 

 

 

 

the foregoing, the term “Separation from Service” shall be interpreted under this Agreement in a manner consistent with the requirements of Code Section 409A and applicable regulations thereunder, including but not limited to (i) an examination of the relevant facts and circumstances, as set forth in Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance thereunder, in the case of any performance of services or availablility to perform services after a purported termination of services or availability to perform services after a purported Separation from Service and (ii) in any instance in which Adams is participating or has at any time participated in any other plan which is, under the aggregation rules of Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance issued thereunder, aggregated with this Agreement and with respect to which amounts deferred hereunder and under such other plan or plans are treated as deferred under a single plan, (hereinafter sometimes referred to as an “Aggregated Plan” or together as the “Aggregated Plans,”) then in such instance Adams shall only be considered to meet the requirements of a Separation from Service hereunder if Adams meets (a) the requirements of a Separation from Service under all such Aggregated Plans and (b) the requirements of a Separation from Service under this Agreement which would otherwise apply, (iii) in any instance in which Adams is an employee and an independent contractor of UBS or any Affiliate or both Adams must have a Separation from Service in all such capacities to meet the requirements of a Separation from Service hereunder, although, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Adams provides services both as an employee and a member of the Board of Directors of UBS or any Affiliate or both or any combination thereof, the services provided as a director are not taken into account in determining whether Adams has had a Separation from Service as an employee under this Agreement, provided that no plan in which Adams participates or has participated in his capacity as a director is an Aggregated Plan and (iv) a determination of whether a Separation from Service has occurred shall be made in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(h)(4) or any similar or successor law, regulation of guidance of like import, in the event of an asset purchase transaction as described therein.

If Adams has not or does not make contributions equal to the Elective Deferral Limitation for any year, the calculation required under Section II nonetheless shall be made as if as if each year he had made such contribution in an amount equal to the Elective Deferral Limitation.
