POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
 
We will be obligated to make certain payments to our named executive officers or potentially accelerate the vesting of their equity awards and pension benefits upon termination of their employment or upon a change in control pursuant to the following plans or agreements:
 
  •  employment agreements entered into with each of our named executive officers (a severance agreement in the case of Mr. Heatly);
 
  •  the Defined Benefit Plan;
 
  •  the BRP or the SRIP depending on the circumstances of the executive officer’s termination; and
 
  •  the 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan.
 
The following tables provide the estimated compensation and present value of benefits potentially payable to each named executive officer upon a change in control of the Company or a termination of employment of the named executive officer. The benefit values shown do not include benefits that are broadly available to substantially all salaried employees. The amounts shown assume that the termination or change in control occurred on December 31, 2008. The actual amounts to be paid can only be determined at the time of such executive’s actual separation from the Company.
 
Please see the narrative for the following tables for a discussion of the methods of calculating the payments required upon termination of our named executive officers in the manners set forth in each column. The footnotes to the following tables apply to all of our named executive officers and are presented after the table for the last named executive officer.
