“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.
