The new deferred compensation rules affect many types of executive compensation vehicles, but is it true that these rules are so broad that they require us to change the way we structure pay arrangements, such as severance arrangements and bonus payments as well as payments to non-executive employees?

Human resources executives, management  and  in-house counsel alike are invited to find out on November 14th when Littler Mendelson Compensation and Benefits leaders,  Steven Friedman  and Kevin Wright,  present on the breadth of these new rules. The rules define deferred compensation to include certain severance arrangements, settlement agreements, payments under employment agreements, short and long-term incentive payments, early-out programs, as well as traditional deferred compensation and arrangements for executives.

Join hosts and moderators Tom Flaherty and Beth Lalik for this 90-minute luncheon briefing, where we will cover:

  • How to spot whether a pay arrangement contains deferred compensation.
  • Which arrangements, plans and other documents need to be reviewed.
  • What do these rules require employers to do in 2008?
  • What penalties will apply?
  • If necessary, what steps can be taken to avoid excise tax liability?

There is no charge for this program.
