EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
 
Section 3.01         Employment.
 
(a)          Transfer of Employees to SpinCo. Prior to the Distribution Time, Moon and SpinCo shall have taken all steps necessary and appropriate so that all of the following Employees are transferred to a SpinCo Entity: (i) each Employee listed on Schedule 3.01(a) attached hereto who is a Group 1 Employee, Group 2 Employee, or Group 3 Employee and (ii) each Employee listed on Schedule 3.01(a) attached hereto who is a Group 4 Employee (Employees included in clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, the “SpinCo Employees,” and each such Employee, a “SpinCo Employee”). A preliminary Schedule 3.01(a) was provided to Clover on the date on which the Merger Agreement was executed, which preliminary schedule listed, by name or unique employee identification number, all Group 1 Employees, Group 2 Employees, and Group 3 Employees as of April 8, 2019, and such schedule was updated with respect to Group 1 Employees, Group 2 Employees, and Group 3 Employees following such date to remove terminated Employees, to add any Employees hired to replace any such terminated Employees, and to add any newly hired Employees who would be a Group 1 Employee, Group 2 Employee, or Group 3 Employee in the ordinary course of business, and to correct any inadvertent errors in such preliminary schedule. Schedule 3.01(a) and the definition of Group 4 Employee shall not include any Employee who would otherwise qualify as a Group 4 Employee but who is scheduled for termination or has received the lowest performance rating with respect to any review period that ended during the twelve (12) month period ending on the Distribution Date. The aggregate number of Group 4 Employees that may be set forth on Schedule 3.01(a), and the aggregate number of Group 4 Employees who actually become SpinCo Employees, as measured at the Effective Time (without regard to the actual date of such Group 4 Employee’s transfer to the Destination Employer (as defined below), if applicable), shall not exceed the lesser of 464 and that number of Employees having an aggregate labor cost (calculated for purposes of this sentence and the immediately following sentence as the cost of both compensation and benefits for each such Group 4 Employee (but excluding equity or equity-based compensation) and set forth in file 1.8.1 (Transferring Corporate Costs) in the Moon online data room) no greater than $39,389,173. In addition, with respect to each of the following categories of Group 4 Employees, no more than the following number may be set forth on Schedule 3.01(a) or may actually become SpinCo Employees, as measured at the Effective Time (without regard to the actual date of such Group 4 Employee’s transfer to the Destination Employer, if applicable): (1) for engineering and technology, product management, innovation, and strategy Employees, the lesser of 200 and that number of Employees having an aggregate labor cost no greater than $8,519,119, (2) for IT, infrastructure, applications, security, and field support Employees, the lesser of 120 and that number of Employees having an aggregate labor cost no greater than $13,985,103, and (3) for all other Group 4 Employees, the lesser of 144 and that number of Employees having an aggregate labor cost no greater than $16,884,951, in each case as such number may be increased by an amount not to exceed 7.5%, and in all events subject to the aggregate cap on the number of Group 4 Employees set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 3.01(a).
 
(b)          Delayed Transfer Employees. To the extent that applicable Law prevents the Parties from causing (i) any Group 1 Employee, Group 2 Employee, or Group 3 Employee to be employed by a member of the SpinCo Group as of the Distribution Time or (ii) any Employee who is intended to be a Moon Employee to be employed by a member of the Moon Group as of the Distribution Time (each such employee, a “Delayed Transfer Employee,” and the SpinCo Entity or Moon Entity to which such Delayed Transfer Employee is intended to be transferred, the “Destination Employer”), the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (x) such Delayed Transfer Employee becomes employed by the Destination Employer at the earliest time permitted by applicable Law and (y) the Destination Employer receives the benefit of such Delayed Transfer Employee’s services from and after the Distribution Time, including under the Transition Services Agreement or by entering into an employee leasing or similar arrangement. “Delayed Transfer Employee” shall also include any scheduled Group 4 Employee who, following the Distribution Time, provides services to the SpinCo Group under the Transition Services Agreement and whose employment is intended by Moon to transfer to the SpinCo Group following the completion of the applicable Transition Services Agreement service, and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such Delayed Transfer Employee becomes employed by the SpinCo Group as soon as practicable following the completion of the applicable Transition Services Agreement service. From and after the commencement of a Delayed Transfer Employee’s employment with the Destination Employer, such Delayed Transfer Employee shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as if such Delayed Transfer Employee commenced employment with the Destination Employer as of the Distribution.

14

(c)          Allocation of Responsibilities as Employer. At the Distribution Time, except as otherwise provided under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the SpinCo Group shall retain or assume, as the case may be, responsibility as employer of the SpinCo Employees.
 
(d)          Employee Agreements. Prior to the Distribution Time, Moon and SpinCo shall have caused a SpinCo Entity to assume and be solely and exclusively responsible for all Employee Agreements entered into prior to the Distribution Time, and all obligations and Liabilities with respect thereto, to be effective as of the Distribution Time, and as of and after the Distribution Time the Moon Entities shall have no obligations or Liabilities with respect to such Employee Agreements. From and after the Effective Time, Clover shall, or shall cause an Affiliate to, assume and honor all Liabilities and obligations to or in respect of the SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees (and any dependents or beneficiaries thereof) under all SpinCo Benefit Plans and all Employee Agreements.
 
(e)          Maintenance of Compensation, Employee Benefits, and Work Location. For the period from the Effective Time through the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Effective Time, and without limiting any other provisions in this Agreement or in any Employee Agreement, Clover shall, or shall cause SpinCo or an Affiliate to, provide to each SpinCo Employee who continues to be employed with the Clover Group (i) (A) an annual base salary or base wage rate, (B) if a bonus-eligible SpinCo Employee, a target annual cash bonus opportunity, and (C) if a commission-eligible SpinCo Employee, a commissions opportunity, in each case that is no less than such SpinCo Employee’s annual base salary or base wage rate, target cash bonus opportunity, or commissions opportunity, respectively, as in effect for such SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) if applicable to such SpinCo Employee, a target annual equity or equity-based incentive award opportunity no less favorable than such SpinCo Employee’s equity or equity-based incentive award opportunity for the Closing Plan Year, which shall be determined as follows: the sum of (x) the SpinCo Employee’s target service-based equity or equity-based incentive award opportunity for the Closing Plan Year and (y) the average of the actual performance-based equity awards earned by such SpinCo Employee for each of the three years ending prior to the Closing Plan Year, measured as of the date of settlement of such awards, (iii) employee benefits and other compensation opportunities that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to those employee benefits and other compensation opportunities in effect for such SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (iv) a principal work location that is no more than thirty-five (35) miles from the SpinCo Employee’s principal work location immediately prior to the Effective Time. For the period from the Effective Time through the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Time, and without limiting any other provisions in this Agreement or in any Employee Agreement, Clover shall, or shall cause SpinCo or an Affiliate to, provide to each Former SpinCo Employee retiree medical and other post-employment retirement benefits that are no less favorable than such benefits as in effect under the Moon Group Health Plan and Moon Group Retiree Health Plan for such Former SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Effective Time.
 
15

(f)           Relocations. Without limiting clause (iv) of Section 3.01(e) above, for the period from the Effective Time through the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Effective Time, Clover shall, or shall cause SpinCo or an Affiliate to, provide to any SpinCo Employee whose principal work location is relocated from his or her principal work location immediately prior to the Effective Time, including any SpinCo Employee who is repatriated to his or her home country following an out-of-country work assignment, such relocation and/or repatriation benefits that are no less favorable to the SpinCo Employee than the relocation and/or repatriation benefits that would have been provided to such SpinCo Employee in connection with a relocation and/or repatriation prior to the Effective Time under the applicable relocation or repatriation policies of Moon and its Affiliates.
 
(g)          Service Credit. From and after the Effective Time, Clover shall give each SpinCo Employee full credit for such SpinCo Employee’s service with the Moon Group and/or SpinCo Group prior to the Effective Time as service with the Clover Group for determining the amount of paid time off and vacation or sick leave, and the level of employer contributions under any defined contribution retirement plan, and for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and benefit accruals (if applicable) under all applicable employee benefit plans, arrangements, collective agreements, and employment-related entitlements (including under any applicable pension, defined contribution (for example, 401(k)), deferred compensation, savings, medical, dental, life insurance, disability, vacation, long-service leave and other leave entitlements, post-retirement health and life insurance, termination indemnity, and severance or separation pay plans) provided, sponsored, maintained, or contributed to by Clover or any of its Affiliates (including the SpinCo Entities) under which such SpinCo Employee is eligible to participate after the Effective Time, in each case to the same extent recognized by the Moon Entities and/or SpinCo Entities immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that no such service credit will be given (i) for benefit accruals under defined benefit pension plans or post-retirement health plans or for purposes of qualifying for subsidized early retirement benefits, in each case under any employee benefit plan in which the SpinCo Employee first becomes eligible to participate after the Effective Time (other than any plan providing benefits in replacement of benefits provided under a benefit plan in which the SpinCo Employee participated prior to the Effective Time) or (ii) to the extent that such credit would result in the duplication of benefits for the same period of service. For the avoidance of doubt, clause (i) above shall apply only to Clover Benefit Plans that do not have a corresponding Moon Benefit Plan.
 
16

(h)          International Employees. In the case of SpinCo Employees primarily employed outside the United States, Clover and its Affiliates (including the SpinCo Entities) shall, in addition to meeting the requirements set forth herein, comply with all additional obligations or standards arising under applicable Laws governing the terms and conditions of their employment, benefits, or severance of employment in connection with the transfer of the SpinCo Business or otherwise.
 
(i)           Payroll and Related Taxes. With respect to the portion of the tax year occurring prior to the day immediately following the Effective Time, a Moon Entity will (i) be responsible for all payroll obligations, tax withholding, and reporting obligations and (ii) furnish a Form W-2 or similar earnings statement to all SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees for such period. With respect to the remaining portion of such tax year, a Clover Entity will (i) be responsible for all payroll obligations, tax withholding, and reporting obligations regarding SpinCo Employees and (ii) furnish a Form W-2 or similar earnings statement to all SpinCo Employees. With respect to each SpinCo Employee, Moon and Clover shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to (to the extent permitted by applicable Law and practicable) (x) treat a Clover Entity as a “successor employer” and a Moon Entity as a “predecessor,” in each case within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code, to the extent appropriate, for purposes of Taxes imposed under the United States Federal Insurance Contributions Act, as amended (“FICA”), or the United States Federal Unemployment Tax Act, as amended (“FUTA”), and (y) file tax returns, exchange wage payment information, and report wage payments made by the respective predecessor and successor employer on separate IRS Forms W-2 or similar earnings statements to each such SpinCo Employee for the tax year in which the Effective Time occurs, in a manner provided in Section 4.02(l) of Revenue Procedure 2004-53. Except to the extent otherwise administratively practicable, the collection of payroll taxes under FICA and FUTA will restart upon or following the Effective Time with respect to each SpinCo Entity for the tax year during which the Effective Time occurs.
 
Section 3.02         Qualified Defined Contribution Plan.
 
(a)          Moon Savings Plan. Effective as of the Distribution Time, SpinCo Employees shall cease to be eligible to (i) have elective deferrals contributed on their behalf to the Moon Savings Plan with respect to compensation paid after the Distribution Time, (ii) be credited with future employer contributions (i.e., employer matching and non-elective contributions) in the Moon Savings Plan, or (iii) make contributions (for example, rollovers or loan repayments) to the Moon Savings Plan.
 
(b)          Clover Savings Plan. Prior to the Effective Time, Clover shall have taken all actions necessary and appropriate to establish or maintain for the benefit of SpinCo Employees (i) a defined contribution plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code that includes a cash or deferred arrangement qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code that is a participant-directed individual account plan that complies with Section 404(c) of ERISA, and (ii) a related trust or trusts exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code, each to be effective no later than the Effective Time (such plan and trust(s), the “Clover Savings Plan”).
 
17

(c)          Spin-Off of the Moon Savings Plan and Merger into the Clover Savings Plan. Effective as of the Effective Time, Moon shall cause the Moon Savings Plan to spin off to the Clover Savings Plan the portion of the Moon Savings Plan attributable to the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees, as well as to any respective Plan Payees, such spin-off to include (but not be limited to) any and all of such individual’s accounts, Liabilities, related Assets, unvested amounts, zero dollar accounts, forfeited accounts, un-locatable participant accounts, and outstanding loan balances, and Clover or one of its Affiliates shall cause the Clover Savings Plan to accept the merger of such spun-off portion of the Moon Savings Plan. All Assets shall be transferred in cash as soon as administratively practicable thereafter and shall be mapped to appropriate investment options in the Clover Savings Plan pursuant to Section 404(c)(4) of ERISA or to the appropriate qualified default investment fund under the Clover Savings Plan pursuant to Section 404(c)(5) of ERISA. Such spin-off and merger shall be conducted in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Code, Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(l)-1, and Section 208 of ERISA. The benefits of the SpinCo Employees participating in the Moon Savings Plan as of immediately prior to the plan merger described in this Section 3.02(c) shall be preserved in the Clover Savings Plan effective as of the plan merger described in this Section 3.02(c) to the extent required under the anti-cutback rules of Section 411(d)(6) of the Code.
 
Section 3.03         Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan.

(a)          Establishment of SpinCo Pension Plan. No later than the day prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall have established a defined benefit pension plan (such new defined benefit pension plan, the “SpinCo Pension Plan”) that is intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code and related trust that is intended to meet the requirements of Section 501(a) of the Code to provide defined benefit pension benefits to SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees who immediately prior to the Effective Time were participants in the Moon Pension Plan. The SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees described herein shall be known as the “SpinCo Pension Plan Participants.”  Effective as of the Effective Time, either SpinCo shall remain the plan sponsor of the SpinCo Pension Plan or Clover shall or shall cause another Affiliate to assume the SpinCo Pension Plan. Clover shall be responsible for taking all necessary, reasonable, and appropriate actions to maintain and administer the SpinCo Pension Plan so that it is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and that the related trust thereunder is exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. Clover (acting directly or through members of the Clover Group or the SpinCo Group) shall be responsible for any and all Liabilities (including Liability for funding) and other obligations with respect to the SpinCo Pension Plan.

18

(b)          Assumption of Moon Pension Plan Liabilities. Effective as of the Distribution Date, Clover (acting directly or through members of the Clover Group or the SpinCo Group) hereby agrees to cause the SpinCo Pension Plan to assume, fully perform, pay, and discharge all Liabilities under the Moon Pension Plan relating to the SpinCo Pension Plan Participants as of the Distribution Date.
 
(c)          Transfer of the Moon Pension Plan Assets.
 
(i)          The Parties intend that the portion of the Moon Collective Trust Fund relating to the Moon Pension Plan covering SpinCo Pension Plan Participants shall be transferred to the SpinCo Pension Plan in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Code, Treasury Regulation Section 1.414(l)-1, and Section 208 of ERISA. No later than thirty (30) days prior to the Distribution Date, Moon and Clover (acting directly or through members of the Clover Group or the SpinCo Group) shall, to the extent necessary, file, or cause to be filed, an IRS Form 5310-A regarding the transfer of Assets and Liabilities from the Moon Collective Trust Fund to the SpinCo Pension Plan.
 
(ii)         Prior to the Distribution Date (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties), Moon shall have caused the Moon Actuary to determine the estimated value, as of the Distribution Date, of the Assets to be transferred from the Moon Collective Trust Fund to the SpinCo Pension Plan in accordance with the assumptions and valuation methodology set forth on Schedule 3.03(c) attached hereto (the “Estimated Pension Plan Transfer Amount”).
 
(iii)        On or about the Distribution Date (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties), Moon and Clover (acting directly or through members of the Clover Group or the SpinCo Group) shall cooperate in good faith to cause an initial transfer of Assets from the Moon Collective Trust Fund to the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan in an amount to be approximately ninety percent (90%) of the Estimated Pension Plan Transfer Amount (such amount, the “Initial Transfer Amount”). Moon shall satisfy its obligation pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(iii) by causing the Moon Collective Trust Fund to transfer Assets equal to the Initial Transfer Amount. Assets may be transferred in cash, cash equivalents, or securities, or if acceptable to Clover, in kind, or in a combination of the foregoing, as determined by Moon in its sole discretion (other than Assets in kind).
 
19

(iv)        Within sixty (60) days (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties) following the Distribution Date, Moon shall cause the Moon Actuary to provide Clover with a revised calculation of the value, as of the Distribution Date, of the Assets of the Moon Collective Trust Fund to be transferred to the SpinCo Pension Plan determined in accordance with the assumptions and valuation methodology set forth on Schedule 3.03(c) attached hereto (the “Revised Pension Plan Transfer Amount”). Clover may submit, at its sole cost and expense, the Revised Pension Plan Transfer Amount to the Clover Actuary for verification; provided, that such verification process and any calculation performed by the Clover Actuary in connection therewith shall be performed solely on the basis of the assumptions and valuation methodology set forth on Schedule 3.03(c) attached hereto. In order to perform such verification, upon request from Clover, the Moon Actuary shall provide the Clover Actuary with the data and additional detailed methodology used to calculate the Initial Transfer Amount and the Final Pension Plan Transfer Amount. Clover will be responsible for the cost and expense of the Clover Actuary, and Moon will be responsible for the cost and expense for the Moon Actuary. If the Clover Actuary so determines that the value, as of the Distribution Date, of the Assets to be transferred to the SpinCo Pension Plan differs from the Revised Pension Plan Transfer Amount, the Clover Actuary shall identify in writing to the Moon Actuary all objections to the Moon Actuary’s determination within sixty (60) days following provision of the revised value calculation to Clover pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.03(c)(iv), and the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary shall use good-faith efforts to reconcile any such difference. The Revised Pension Plan Transfer Amount shall be deemed final if the Clover Actuary does not submit written objections to the Moon Actuary within such sixty (60) day period. If the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary fail to reconcile such differences, the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary shall jointly designate a third, independent actuary whose calculation of the value, as of the Distribution Date, of the Assets to be transferred to the SpinCo Pension Plan shall be final and binding; provided, that such value must be between the value determined by the Clover Actuary and the Revised Pension Plan Transfer Amount or equal to either such value. Such calculation shall be performed within a reasonable period of time, but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days, following designation of such third actuary and in accordance with the assumptions and valuation methodology set forth on Schedule 3.03(c) attached hereto. Moon and Clover shall each pay one half (½) of the costs incurred in connection with the retention of such independent actuary. The final, verified value, as of the Distribution Date, of the Assets to be transferred to the SpinCo Pension Plan as determined in accordance with this Section 3.03(c)(iv) shall be referred to herein as the “Final Pension Plan Transfer Amount.”
 
(v)         Within forty-five (45) days (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties) following the determination of the Final Pension Plan Transfer Amount, Moon shall cause the Moon Collective Trust Fund to transfer to the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan (the date of such transfer, the “Final Transfer Date”) the amounts in cash, cash equivalents, securities, or if acceptable to Clover, in kind, or in a combination of the foregoing, as determined by Moon in its sole discretion (other than Assets in kind), equal to (A) the Final Pension Plan Transfer Amount minus (B) the Initial Transfer Amount (such difference, as adjusted to reflect earnings or losses as described in this Section 3.03(c)(v), the “True-Up Amount”); provided, that, if the True-Up Amount is negative, Moon shall not be required to cause any such additional transfer and instead Clover shall be required to cause a transfer of cash, cash equivalents, or securities, or, if acceptable to Moon, Assets in kind, or a combination of the foregoing, from the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan to the Moon Collective Trust Fund as required in an amount equal to the absolute value of the True-Up Amount. The Parties acknowledge that the Moon Collective Trust Fund’s transfer of the True-Up Amount to the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan shall be in full settlement and satisfaction of the obligations of Moon to cause the transfer of, and the Moon Pension Plan to transfer, Assets to the SpinCo Pension Plan pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(v). The True-Up Amount, if any, shall be adjusted to reflect fees or charges paid or incurred, and earnings or losses, during the period from the Distribution Date to the Final Transfer Date. Such earnings or losses shall be determined based on the actual rates of return of the Moon Pension Plan for the period commencing as of the Distribution Date and ending as close as administratively practicable to the Final Transfer Date. If Clover is obligated to cause the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan to reimburse the Moon Pension Plan pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(v), such reimbursements shall be performed in accordance with the same principles set forth herein with respect to the payment of the True-Up Amount. The Parties acknowledge that the SpinCo Pension Plan’s transfer of such reimbursement amounts to the Moon Collective Trust Fund shall be in full settlement and satisfaction of the obligations of Clover to cause the transfer of, and the trust of the SpinCo Pension Plan to transfer, Assets to the Moon Collective Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 3.03(c)(v).

20

Section 3.04          Retirement Benefits Funding Obligations.
 
(a)          Pre-Distribution ARA and ARL Estimates. Prior to the Distribution Date (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties), Moon shall have caused the Moon Actuary to determine the estimated value of the ARA (with the value of Assets related to the SpinCo Pension Plan to be determined based on the Estimated Pension Plan Transfer Amount, determined in accordance with Section 3.03(c)) and the ARL and to deliver to Clover and the Clover Actuary for their review written reports of the estimates for each such component value, together with reasonable supporting detail, including for each such component an estimate for each SpinCo Employee and Former Employee participating in each applicable plan. The Moon Actuary shall provide the Clover Actuary with the data and additional detailed methodology used to calculate such estimated amounts and such other information reasonably requested by the Clover Actuary to review such estimated amounts.
 
(b)          Determination of ARA and ARL. As promptly as possible (and in any event no more than fifteen (15) days) after the Final Pension Plan Transfer Amount is definitively determined, Moon shall cause the Moon Actuary to deliver to Clover and the Clover Actuary revised reports setting forth Moon’s good-faith calculations of each of the ARA and the ARL, together with reasonable supporting detail, including for each such component value, the value for each SpinCo Employee and Former Employee participating in each applicable plan. The Moon Actuary shall provide the Clover Actuary with the data and additional detailed methodology used to calculate such amounts and such other information reasonably requested by the Clover Actuary to review such amounts. The Clover Actuary shall identify in writing to the Moon Actuary all objections to the Moon Actuary’s calculations of the ARA and the ARL within thirty (30) days following provision of the revised calculations, supporting detail, data, and methodology to the Clover Actuary pursuant to this Section 3.04(b), and the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary shall use good-faith efforts to reconcile any such difference. The calculations shall be deemed final if the Clover Actuary does not submit written objections to the Moon Actuary within such thirty (30) day period. If the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary fail to reconcile such differences, the Clover Actuary and the Moon Actuary shall jointly designate a third, independent actuary (which third actuary shall be the same actuary as was designated under Section 3.03(c)(iv), unless both Parties agree otherwise or such third actuary declines the designation) to calculate the ARA and the ARL, whose calculations of each such value shall be final and binding; provided, that each such component value must be between the corresponding value determined by the Moon Actuary and the Clover Actuary or equal to either such value. Such third actuary’s calculations shall be performed within a reasonable period of time, but no more than sixty (60) days, following the designation of such third actuary. Moon shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of the Moon Actuary, and Clover shall be responsible for all costs and expenses of the Clover Actuary related to the matters in this Section 3.04. Moon and Clover shall each pay one half (½) of the costs incurred in connection with the retention of a third actuary.
 
21

(c)          Moon Payment. Within thirty (30) days (or such later time as mutually agreed by the Parties) after the final determination of the ARA and the ARL in accordance with Section 3.04(b), Moon shall make a cash payment to Clover equal to either (x) if the ARL exceeds $600 million, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Aggregate Underfunding over $186 million, or (y) if the ARL is $600 million or less, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Aggregate Underfunding over (ii) the product of (A) 0.31 and (B) the ARL.
 
Section 3.05         Moon UK Pension Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties hereby agree, and Moon shall take all steps necessary to ensure, that (i) the Moon UK Pension Plan will not transfer to or with any SpinCo Entity in connection with the Distribution and shall remain with the Moon Group from and after the Distribution Time, (ii) no SpinCo Entity will become, assume, or continue as a participating employer in the Moon UK Pension Plan for the purposes of UK pensions legislation on and following the Distribution Time, nor will it (or any Clover Entity) have any Liability thereunder or with respect thereto, including in relation to any statutory debt on the employer under Section 75 or 75A of the Pensions Act 1995 from and after the Distribution Time, and (iii) from and after the Distribution Time, no SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees will be active members accruing benefits in the Moon UK Pension Plan.
 
Section 3.06         Nonqualified Plans.
 
(a)          Moon Deferred Compensation Plans. SpinCo Employees shall not be permitted to defer compensation or accrue benefits under the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans after the Distribution Time.
 
(b)          SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plans. Prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall have taken all actions necessary and appropriate to establish for the benefit of SpinCo Employees one or more deferred compensation plans (collectively, the “SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plans”) to provide each SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee who was a participant in one or more of the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans as of immediately prior to the Distribution Date (each, a “SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan Beneficiary”) benefits in respect of service and compensation following the Distribution Date that are substantially identical to those accrued with respect to such person under, and the opportunity to defer compensation and accrue benefits on a basis that is substantially identical to, the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans as of immediately prior to the Distribution Date. As of the Distribution Date, the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees shall no longer participate in the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans. The Parties agree that for purposes of the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans, a SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan Beneficiary shall not be considered to have incurred a separation from service as determined under the general rules of Section 409A of the Code as a result of the Distribution or the transfer of employment or service from Moon (or a Moon Entity) to SpinCo (or SpinCo Entity), and such employment or service shall be considered to terminate for purposes of the SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plans only when the employment or service of such SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan Beneficiary with the SpinCo Group terminates in accordance with the terms of the SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plans and applicable Laws.
 
22

(c)          Liability and Responsibility. The Liabilities in respect of SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan Beneficiaries under the Moon Deferred Compensation Plans shall be assumed by SpinCo, effective as of the Distribution Date. SpinCo shall have sole responsibility for the administration of the SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plans and the payment of benefits thereunder to or on behalf of SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan Beneficiaries, and no member of the Moon Group shall have any Liability or responsibility therefor. During the Designated Survival Period and subject to Schedule 3.06(c), Clover shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate (including any SpinCo Entity) to, terminate or amend any SpinCo Deferred Compensation Plan in a manner that is adverse in any respect to any SpinCo Employee.
 
(d)          Section 409A. The Parties will cooperate in good faith so that the transfers contemplated by this Section 3.06(d) will not result in adverse Tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code.
 
Section 3.07         Short-Term Bonuses for Closing Plan Year; Earned but Unpaid Incentive Compensation. Immediately prior to the Distribution Time, Moon shall have paid (a) all earned but unpaid bonuses, commissions, and other cash-based incentive compensation due to any SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee under any Employee Agreement, SpinCo Benefit Plan, or Moon Benefit Plan, and (b) to each bonus-eligible SpinCo Employee a bonus, calculated based on actual performance through the Distribution Date or assuming the target level of performance, in each case as determined by Moon in its sole discretion, pursuant to any cash incentive or bonus program of the Moon Group in which such SpinCo Employee is a participant immediately prior to the Distribution Date, prorated to correspond with the SpinCo Employee’s applicable period of employment with Moon during the Closing Plan Year. Effective as of the Distribution Time, Clover shall or shall cause another Affiliate to cause each bonus-eligible SpinCo Employee to become a participant in a cash incentive or bonus program of the Clover Group for the remainder of the Closing Plan Year; provided, that the cash incentive or bonus program of the Clover Group provides, in the aggregate, similar achievement opportunities as the SpinCo Employee was entitled to prior to the Distribution Date. Clover shall be responsible for any payment to which a SpinCo Employee may be entitled under a cash incentive or bonus program of the Clover Group following the Distribution Time.
 
23

(a)          Moon Group Health Plan. Effective as of the Distribution Date (or as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement), SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees will cease to participate in the Moon Group Health Plan.
 
(b)          Clover Group Health Plan. Prior to the Effective Time (or as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement), Clover shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, take, or cause to be taken, or have taken, all action necessary and appropriate to establish or designate and administer a group health and welfare benefits plan for the benefit of all SpinCo Employees and eligible dependents effective as of the Effective Time (or as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement) (the “Clover Group Health Plan”) and to provide benefits thereunder for all eligible SpinCo Employees and eligible dependents who choose to enroll in such Plan. Clover will cause such Clover Group Health Plan to permit enrollment immediately (or at such time as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement) by those SpinCo Employees and their dependents who immediately prior to the Distribution Time were participating in, or entitled to present or future benefits under, the Moon Group Health Plan, and shall recognize the most recent hire date of such SpinCo Employee with Moon or a member of the controlled group of organizations of which Moon is a part (as defined by Section 414 of the Code and regulations issued thereunder) for purposes of determining whether such SpinCo Employee has met any otherwise-applicable waiting period. The Clover Group Health Plan (or, to the extent provided in the Transition Services Agreement, the Clover Group) will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims incurred by SpinCo Employees and their dependents on or following the Effective Time, regardless of when the injury or medical condition giving rise to the claim occurred. The Moon Group Health Plan will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims incurred by SpinCo Employees and their dependents before the Effective Time. For purposes of this Section 3.08(b) and Section 3.08(c), a claim is deemed to be incurred (i) with respect to medical, dental, vision, or prescription drug benefits, as applicable, on the date on which the services are performed or the goods are provided, regardless of when the injury or medical condition giving rise to the claim occurred, (ii) with respect to life, accidental death and dismemberment, and business travel accident insurance, on the date on which the event giving rise to such claim occurs, and (iii) with respect to disability benefits, on the date on which a person’s disability begins, as determined by the disability benefit insurer or claims administrator, giving rise to such claim.
 
(c)          Clover Group Retiree Health Plan. Prior to the Effective Time (or as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement), Clover shall have taken all action necessary and appropriate to establish or designate and administer a retiree health benefits plan for the benefit of all SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees who are eligible for current or, upon retirement, future coverage under the Moon Group Retiree Health Plan as of the Distribution Time (the “Clover Group Retiree Health Plan”) and to provide benefits thereunder for all eligible SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees who choose to enroll in such Plan. Clover will cause such Clover Group Retiree Health Plan to permit enrollment immediately (or at such time as otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement) by those Former SpinCo Employees and their dependents who immediately prior to the Distribution Time were participating in, or entitled to present or future benefits under, the Moon Group Retiree Health Plan. The Clover Group Retiree Health Plan will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims incurred by SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees and their dependents on or following the Effective Time, regardless of when the injury or medical condition giving rise to the claim occurred. The Moon Group Retiree Health Plan will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims incurred by SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees and their dependents before the Effective Time.

(d)          Dependent Care and Health Flexible Spending Accounts. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 3.08(b), to the extent that SpinCo Employees participate in a dependent care or health flexible spending account under the Moon Group Health Plan (the “Moon FSA/DCA”) during the Closing Plan Year, Clover shall establish (or cause its Affiliate, if applicable, to establish) one or more comparable plans (the “Clover FSA/DCA”) that will recognize the elections that such SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees had in effect for purposes of the Closing Plan Year under the Moon FSA/DCA. The Clover FSA/DCA shall (i) assume the Assets and Liabilities of the Moon FSA/DCA with respect to SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees as of the Effective Time and (ii) provide the same level of dependent care and flexible spending account benefits as those provided under the Moon FSA/DCA at least through the latest date on which participants are entitled to submit for reimbursements with respect to contribution elections made during the Closing Plan Year. After the Effective Time, the Clover FSA/DCA will be responsible for reimbursement of all previously unreimbursed reimbursable dependent care and flexible spending account claims incurred by SpinCo Employees, regardless of when the claims were incurred.
 
(e)          Continuation Coverage. As of and following the Effective Time, the Clover Group Health Plan shall be solely responsible for providing and meeting the continuation coverage requirements imposed by Section 4980B of the Code and Sections 601 through 608 of ERISA (“COBRA”) for all SpinCo Employees and all Former SpinCo Employees, as well as their “qualified beneficiaries” (as defined under COBRA) (such SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees, and their qualified beneficiaries together, the “COBRA Participants”), regardless of whether the “qualifying event” (as defined under COBRA) arose before, on, or after the Effective Time. The Clover Group Health Plan will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims by COBRA Participants in respect of services that are performed or goods that are provided on or following the Effective Time, regardless of when the injury or medical condition giving rise to the claim occurred. The Moon Group Health Plan will be responsible for all Liabilities associated with claims by COBRA Participants in respect of services that are performed or goods that are provided before the Effective Time.
 
25

(f)           6055/6056 Reporting. Clover shall be solely responsible for ensuring that SpinCo complies with the reporting obligations under Section 6056 of the Code (Reporting of Offers of Coverage) with respect to SpinCo Employees for the Closing Plan Year (including while SpinCo was owned by Moon) and periods after the Distribution Date, for which SpinCo has a reporting obligation, provided that Moon shall be responsible for complying with all reporting obligations with respect to the year prior to the Closing Plan Year. In this regard, SpinCo shall be responsible for distributing IRS Form 1095-C to applicable individuals and filing IRS Forms 1094-C and 1095-C with the IRS, all according to the applicable rules and regulations governing such forms. Clover shall also be solely responsible for ensuring that SpinCo complies with the reporting obligations under Section 6055 of the Code (Reporting of Enrollment in Minimum Essential Coverage) with respect to all SpinCo Employees who are enrolled in a self-insured medical plan under the Moon Group Health Plan. SpinCo may meet this obligation either through IRS Forms 1094-C and 1095-C or IRS Forms 1094-B and 1095-B, all in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The reporting obligations under Section 6055 of the Code for SpinCo Employees who are enrolled in a fully insured medical plan under the Moon Group Health Plan shall be met by the applicable insurance carrier or HMO. Moon shall work with Clover to provide all necessary pre–Distribution Date information for SpinCo to meet its reporting obligation, which information shall be complete and accurate and provided to SpinCo no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date that such reporting obligation is due (disregarding any extensions to such reporting deadlines that may be granted by the IRS for the reporting year); provided, however, that to the extent reasonably necessary, such time frame shall be reduced to fifteen (15) days for any data related to the four (4) month period ending on the date on which such reporting obligation is due.
 
(g)          Credit for Benefits. Clover shall (i) waive for each SpinCo Employee and Former SpinCo Employee, and his or her dependents, each waiting period provision, payment requirement to avoid a waiting period, pre-existing condition limitation, actively-at-work requirement, and any other restriction that would prevent immediate or full participation under the welfare plans of Clover or any of its Affiliates applicable to (or was previously satisfied by) such SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee to the extent that such waiting period, pre-existing condition limitation, actively-at-work requirement, or other restriction would not have been applicable to such SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee under the terms of the applicable Moon Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) give full credit under the welfare plans of Clover and its Affiliates applicable to each SpinCo Employee and Former SpinCo Employee, and his or her dependents, for all out-of-pocket expenses, including co-payments and deductibles, satisfied prior to the Effective Time in the Closing Plan Year, and for any lifetime maximums, as if there had been a single continuous employer.
 
Section 3.09         Workers’ Compensation. Following the Distribution Date, SpinCo and its Affiliates will be solely responsible for all United States (including its territories) workers’ compensation claims of SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees with respect to Workers’ Compensation Events, regardless of when such Workers Compensation Events to which such claims relate occur, except to the extent that claims that relate to events occurring prior to the Distribution Date are covered under an applicable Moon’s workers’ compensation insurance policy.
 
26

Section 3.10         Vacation, Paid Time Off, and Sick Pay Liabilities. As of the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall provide each SpinCo Employee with the same vested and unvested balances of vacation, paid time off, and sick leave as credited to such SpinCo Employee on Moon’s or its Affiliate’s payroll system immediately prior to the Distribution Date. For the period from the Effective Time through the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Effective Time, and without limiting any other provisions in this Agreement or in any Employee Agreement, Clover shall accrue vacation and sick leave in respect of each SpinCo Employee according to Moon’s accrual schedule as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, or Clover’s accrual schedule as in effect for similarly situated Employees of the Clover Group, whichever is more favorable to the SpinCo Employee.
 
Section 3.11         Severance.
 
(a)          Assumption of Outstanding Severance Liabilities. Effective as of the Distribution Time, SpinCo shall assume all severance Liabilities under each Moon Benefit Plan with respect to any Former SpinCo Employee.
 
(b)          Establishment of SpinCo Major Restructuring Severance Plan. Prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall have established and adopted a severance plan (the “SpinCo Severance Plan”) that will be identical in all respects to the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan (save for clerical changes to reflect SpinCo as the plan sponsor) and that will provide severance benefits in accordance with this Section 3.11(a) to each SpinCo Employee who (i) was eligible to be a participant in the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan as of the day prior to the Distribution Date or (ii) is hired or promoted by SpinCo or an Affiliate on or following the Distribution Date into a position and would have been eligible to participate in the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan had such person been employed in such position on the day prior to the Distribution Date. Such severance benefits shall be provided upon any Severance-Eligible Termination during the Designated Survival Period, and the amount, composition, and terms and conditions of such benefits shall be as set forth in the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan (and as made a part of the SpinCo Severance Plan). The Parties hereby agree and acknowledge that, for purposes of the SpinCo Severance Plan, the Distribution and Merger constitute a “Major Restructuring,” as such term is used in the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan (and as made a part of the SpinCo Severance Plan) with respect to the SpinCo Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in connection with such termination, the Clover Group severance arrangement, plan, policy, or guideline that is applicable to similarly situated Employees of the Clover Group would provide a greater severance benefit to such terminated SpinCo Employee, such Clover arrangement shall apply in lieu of the SpinCo Severance Plan. As of the Distribution Date, (i) the SpinCo Employees will no longer participate in the Moon Major Restructuring Severance Plan, and (ii) no member of the Moon Group shall have any further Liability for, and SpinCo shall indemnify each member of the Moon Group, and the officers, directors, and employees of each member of the Moon Group, and hold them harmless with respect to any and all Liabilities and obligations whatsoever with respect to, claims made by or with respect to any SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees in connection with the SpinCo Severance Plan, including such Liabilities relating to actions or omissions of or by any member of the SpinCo Group or any officer, director, employee, or agent thereof prior to, on, or after the Distribution Date. During the Designated Survival Period, Clover shall not, and shall not permit any Affiliate (including any SpinCo Entity) to, terminate or amend the SpinCo Severance Plan in a manner that is adverse in any respect to any SpinCo Employee.
 
27

(c)          Severance Arrangements, Plans, Policies and Guidelines. Without limiting clause (iii) of Section 3.01(e) or Section 3.11(a) above, Clover shall, or shall cause SpinCo or an Affiliate to, provide severance benefits in accordance with this Section 3.11(c) to each SpinCo Employee whose employment with Clover and its Affiliates (including any SpinCo Entity) terminates during the Designated Survival Period in a manner that would constitute a Severance-Eligible Termination, and who is not actually entitled to severance benefits under the SpinCo Severance Plan as a result of such employment termination. The amount, composition, and terms and conditions of such severance benefits shall be no less favorable to such SpinCo Employee than those provided under either (x) the Ordinary Severance Guidelines of Moon as described on Schedule 3.11(c), or (y) the applicable Clover Group severance arrangement, plan, policy, or guideline applicable to similarly situated Employees of the Clover Group, whichever arrangement provides a greater benefit.
 
Section 3.12         Preservation of Right to Amend or Terminate Plans. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement, or the Merger Agreement, no provisions of this Agreement shall be construed as a limitation on the right of Moon, SpinCo, or Clover, or any Affiliate thereof, to amend any Plan or terminate its participation therein that Moon, SpinCo, or Clover, or any Affiliate thereof, would otherwise have under the terms of such Plan or otherwise, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any Employee or former Employee, or dependent or beneficiary of such Employee or former Employee, or any Plan Payee, under a Plan that such person would not otherwise have under the terms of the Plan itself.
 
Section 3.13         No Right to Employment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, no provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to guarantee employment for any period of time for, or preclude the ability of SpinCo or Clover, or any of its Affiliates, to terminate any employee or individual service provider for any reason.
 
ARTICLE IV

Section 4.01          General Principles.
 
(a)          Agreement to Cooperate. Moon and Clover shall take any and all reasonable actions as shall be necessary and appropriate to further the provisions of this ARTICLE IV, including, to the extent practicable, providing written notice or similar communications to each Employee who holds one or more awards granted under any Moon Stock Plan or is notionally invested in Moon Common Stock through a Moon Deferred Compensation Plan informing such Employee of (i) the actions contemplated by this ARTICLE IV with respect to such awards and (ii) whether (and during what time period) any “blackout” period shall be imposed upon holders of awards granted under any Moon Stock Plan or participants who are notionally invested in Moon Common Stock through a Moon Deferred Compensation Plan during which time awards or investment elections may not be exercised or settled, as the case may be.
 
28

(b)          Recognition of Service. Following the Effective Time, a grantee who has outstanding equity-based awards under one or more of the Moon Stock Plans or is notionally invested in Moon Common Stock through a Moon Deferred Compensation Plans and/or replacement equity-based awards under the Clover Stock Plan shall be considered to have been employed by the applicable plan sponsor before and after the Effective Time for purposes of (i) vesting and (ii) determining the date of termination of employment as it applies to any such award.
 
(c)          Compliance with Laws. No award described in this ARTICLE IV, whether outstanding or to be issued, adjusted, substituted, or canceled by reason of or in connection with the Distribution, shall be adjusted, settled, canceled, or exercisable until, in the judgment of the administrator of the applicable plan or program such action is consistent with all applicable Laws, including federal securities Laws. Any period of exercisability will be extended on account of a period during which such an award is not exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence, to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code.
 
(d)          Section 409A. The adjustment or conversion of the Moon Equity Awards shall be effected in a manner that is intended to avoid the imposition of any accelerated, additional, penalty, or other Taxes on the holders thereof pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.
 
Section 4.02          Moon Stock Options.
 
(a)          Vested Moon Stock Options. Each Moon Stock Option that is vested by its terms immediately prior to the Distribution Time (each, a “Vested Moon Stock Option”), regardless of who holds such Vested Moon Stock Option, shall remain an option to purchase shares of Moon Common Stock issued under the applicable Moon Stock Plan (each such award, an “Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option”). Each Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Effective Time as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Vested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time; provided, however, that from and after the Effective Time, (x) the number of shares of Moon Common Stock subject to each such Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option shall equal (A) the number of shares of Moon Common Stock subject to the corresponding Vested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time divided by (B) the Moon Ratio, with any fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (y) the per-share exercise price of each such Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option shall equal (A) the per-share exercise price of the corresponding Vested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time multiplied by (B) the Moon Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.
 
29

(b)          Unvested Moon Stock Options.
 
(i)          Each Moon Stock Option that is unvested by its terms immediately prior to the Distribution Time (an “Unvested Moon Stock Option”) held by a Moon Group Employee, Former Moon Group Employee, or Former SpinCo Employee, or by a current or former member of the board of directors of Moon, shall remain an option to purchase shares of Moon Common Stock issued under the applicable Moon Stock Plan (each such award, an “Adjusted Unvested Moon Stock Option”). Each Adjusted Unvested Moon Stock Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions after the Effective Time as the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time; provided, however, that from and after the Effective Time, (x) the number of shares of Moon Common Stock subject to each such Adjusted Unvested Moon Stock Option shall equal (A) the number of shares of Moon Common Stock subject to the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time divided by (B) the Moon Ratio, with any fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share, and (y) the per-share exercise price of each such Adjusted Unvested Moon Stock Option shall equal (A) the per-share exercise price of the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time multiplied by (B) the Moon Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.
 
(ii)          Each Unvested Moon Stock Option held by a SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Distribution Time shall be converted as of the Effective Time into an option to purchase shares of Clover Common Stock (each such award, an “Clover Stock Option”) pursuant to the terms of the Clover Stock Plan, subject to terms and conditions from and after the Effective Time that are substantially similar to the terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time; provided, however, that from and after the Effective Time, (x) the number of shares of Clover Common Stock subject to such Clover Stock Option shall equal (A) the number of shares of Moon Common Stock subject to the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time divided by (B) the Clover Ratio, with any fractional share rounded down to the nearest whole share, (y) the per-share exercise price of such Clover Stock Option shall equal the product of (A) the per-share exercise price of the corresponding Unvested Moon Stock Option immediately prior to the Distribution Time multiplied by (B) the Clover Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, and (z) with respect to each such Clover Stock Option, “change in control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Clover Stock Plan (i.e., a “change in control” of Clover rather than Moon).
 
Section 4.03         Restricted Stock Units.
 
(a)          Moon Group Employee Awards. Moon RSUs held by a Moon Group Employee, Former Moon Group Employee, or Former SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Distribution Time shall be adjusted by dividing the number of Moon RSUs subject to each grant by the Moon Ratio. If the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of Moon RSUs shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The terms and conditions (including vesting terms) to which the Moon RSUs are subject shall be substantially the same terms and conditions before and after the Effective Time.
 
30

(b)          SpinCo Employee Awards. Moon RSUs held by a SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Distribution Time shall be replaced with an award of a number of Clover restricted stock units (the “Clover RSUs”) determined by dividing the number of Moon RSUs subject to each award by the Clover Ratio. If the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of Clover RSUs shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Clover RSUs shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as in effect for the corresponding Moon RSUs immediately prior to the Distribution Time; provided, however, with respect to each such Clover RSU, “change in control” shall have the meaning set forth in the Clover Stock Plan (i.e., a “change in control” of Clover rather than Moon).
 
Section 4.04          Performance Stock Units.
 
(a)          Adjustment of Moon PSUs. The number of shares of Moon Common Stock underlying each Moon PSU held by a Moon Group Employee or Former Moon Group Employee, or by a SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee, in either case immediately prior to the Distribution Time, shall be adjusted by dividing such number of shares by the Moon Ratio, with the result rounded up to the extent that it includes a fractional share; the number of such adjusted Moon PSUs held by a SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee shall then be then prorated based on the number of days elapsed during the applicable performance period through the Distribution Date, and if the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of shares underlying any Moon PSU shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The terms and conditions to which the Moon PSUs are subject shall otherwise be substantially the same terms and conditions before and after the Distribution Time; provided, however, that the calculations of “Earnings Per Share,” “Total Shareholder Return,” and “Cash Flow Return on Invested Capital” will be adjusted to appropriately reflect the Reorganization, Distribution, and Merger in a manner determined by the Committee (as such term is defined in the applicable Moon Stock Plan).
 
(b)          Grant of Clover RSUs to Replace Forfeited Moon PSUs Held by SpinCo Employees. At, or as soon as practicable following, the Effective Time, each SpinCo Employee who then holds an award of Moon PSUs shall be granted an award of a number of Clover RSUs determined by dividing (x) by (y), where (x) equals the average number of shares of Moon Common Stock earned by such SpinCo Employee with respect to the Moon PSUs earned by such SpinCo Employee for each of the three years ending prior to the Closing Plan Year, measured as of the date of settlement of such awards and (y) equals the Clover Ratio, with the result rounded up to the extent that it includes a fractional share; the number of such Clover RSUs held by such SpinCo Employee shall then be then prorated based on the number of days remaining in the applicable performance period following the Distribution Date, and if the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of shares underlying such award of Clover RSUs shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The award of Clover RSUs shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as in effect for the corresponding award of Moon PSUs immediately prior to the Distribution Time; provided, however, that each Clover RSU shall time vest on the last day of the applicable performance period for the corresponding Moon PSU, subject to the SpinCo Employee’s continued employment with the Clover Group on such date.

Section 4.06          Notional Shares.
 
(a)          Treatment of Moon Notional Shares Held by Moon Group Employees and Former Moon Group Employees. Moon Notional Shares held by a Moon Group Employee or a Former Moon Group Employee immediately prior to the Distribution Time shall be adjusted by dividing by the Moon Ratio the number of Moon Notional Shares held by such individual. If the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of adjusted Moon Notional Shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The terms and conditions (including vesting terms) to which the Moon Notional Shares are subject shall be substantially the same terms and conditions before and after the Distribution Time.
 
(b)          Treatment of Moon Notional Shares Held by SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees. Moon Notional Shares held by any SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee immediately prior to the Distribution Time shall be replaced with a number of Clover notional shares (the “Clover Notional Shares”) determined by dividing by the Clover Ratio the number of Moon Notional Shares held by such individual. If the resulting product includes a fractional share, the number of Clover Notional Shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The Clover Notional Shares shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as in effect for the corresponding Moon Notional Shares immediately prior to the Distribution Time.

Moon agrees that, from and after the date hereof until the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Distribution Date, it shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, without the prior written consent of Clover, directly or indirectly, solicit or offer to hire or hire any current or former Employees of Clover or any of its Affiliates (which, following the Effective Time, shall include the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees), or otherwise cause or seek to cause any current or former Employees of Clover or its Subsidiaries (which, following the Effective Time, shall include the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees) to leave the employ of Clover or any of its Affiliates, or enter into a consulting agreement with any current or former Employee of Clover or any of its Subsidiaries (which, following the Effective Time, shall include the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees); provided, however, that (a) the placement of any general mass solicitation, advertising, or recruiting consultant search that is not targeted current or former at Employees of Clover and its Subsidiaries and that does not result in the hiring of such individuals responding to such efforts shall not be considered a violation of this Section 6.02; and this Section 6.02 shall not preclude Moon or its Subsidiaries from soliciting, offering to hire, hiring, or entering into a consulting agreement with, any current or former Employee of Clover and its Subsidiaries whose employment with Clover or any of its Subsidiaries has been terminated involuntarily by Clover or any of its Subsidiaries or any person from and after six (6) months after the termination of his or her employment with Clover or any of its Subsidiaries.
 
Section 6.03         Restrictive Covenants in Employment and Other Agreements. To the fullest extent permitted by the agreements described in this Section 6.03 and applicable Law, Moon shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, assign to a SpinCo Entity, as designated by Clover, all agreements containing restrictive covenants (including confidentiality, non-competition, and non-solicitation provisions) between a Moon Entity and SpinCo Employee or a Former SpinCo Employee, with such assignment to be effective as of the Distribution Time. To the extent that assignment of such agreements is not permitted, effective as of the Distribution Time, a SpinCo Entity shall be considered to be a successor to the applicable Moon Entity for purposes of, and a third-party beneficiary with respect to, all such agreements, such that each Clover Entity shall enjoy all the rights and benefits under such agreements (including rights and benefits as a third-party beneficiary), with respect to the SpinCo Business; provided, however, that in no event shall any SpinCo Entity (or, following the Effective Time, any Clover Entity) be permitted to enforce such restrictive covenant agreements against a SpinCo Employee or a Former SpinCo Employee for actions taken in their capacity as employees of Moon or any of its Subsidiaries (including, prior to the Distribution Date, the SpinCo Entities).

Immigration records will, if and as appropriate, become a part of SpinCo’s public access file. SpinCo will use personnel records, payroll forms, and Benefit Management Records for lawful purposes only, including calculation of withholdings from wages and personnel management.

SpinCo shall provide Moon with reasonable access to those records necessary for its administration of any Benefit Plans or programs, or employment and compensation matters, on behalf of SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees after the Distribution Time as permitted by any applicable privacy protection Laws and regulations, Privacy Contracts, and the Moon Data Protection and Privacy Policy. Moon shall also be permitted to retain copies of all restrictive covenant agreements with any SpinCo Employee in which any member of the Moon Group has a valid business interest. In addition, Moon shall provide SpinCo with reasonable access to those records necessary for its administration of any Benefit Plans or programs, or employment and compensation matters, on behalf of SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees after the Distribution Time as permitted by any applicable privacy protection Laws, regulations, and Privacy Contracts. SpinCo shall also be permitted to retain copies of all restrictive covenant agreements with any Moon Group Employee or Former Moon Group Employee in which any member of the SpinCo Group has a valid business interest.
 
Section 7.04         Maintenance of Records. With respect to retaining, destroying, transferring, sharing, copying, and permitting access to all Employee-related information, Moon and SpinCo shall comply with all applicable Laws, regulations, and internal policies, and shall indemnify and hold harmless each other from and against any and all Liabilities, claims, actions, and damages that arise from a failure (by the indemnifying party or its Subsidiaries or their respective agents) to so comply with all applicable Laws, regulations, Privacy Contracts, and internal policies applicable to such information.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all records and data relating to Employees shall, in each case, be subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Separation Agreement and any other applicable agreement and applicable Law, and the provisions of this Section 7.05 shall be in addition to, and not in derogation of, the provisions of the Separation Agreement governing confidential information, including Section 7.2 of the Separation Agreement.
 
Section 7.06         Cooperation. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to share, retain, and maintain data and records that are necessary or appropriate to further the purposes of this ARTICLE VII and for each Party to administer its respective Benefit Plans to the extent consistent with this Agreement and applicable Law, and each Party agrees to cooperate as long as is reasonably necessary to further the purposes of this ARTICLE VII.

Section 8.02         Enforcement. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur, and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law, if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled at Law or in equity. Each Party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law, or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.
 
ARTICLE IX
 
MISCELLANEOUS
