Any adjustments made by the Parent Board of Directors pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be deemed to have been incorporated by reference herein as if fully set forth in this Article IV and shall be binding on the Parties.

(c)    Delayed Transfer SpinCo Employees.

Each Parent Equity Award held immediately prior to the Effective Time by a member of the Parent Board of Directors who will continue as a member of the Parent Board of Directors or who will continue as a member of the SpinCo Board of Directors at the Effective Time shall be adjusted or assumed and converted pursuant to this Article IV in the same manner as a similar award held by a Parent Employee or a SpinCo Employee, as applicable; provided, however, that any Parent Entity Award held by any such member of the Parent Board of Directors who will continue on both the Parent Board of Directors and the SpinCo Board of Directors shall be adjusted in the same manner as a similar award held by a Parent Employee.

(e)    Equity Awards Subject to Applicable Stock Plan and Award Agreement. From and after the Effective Time, all references to the applicable company in award agreements subject to a Parent Stock Plan or to the SpinCo Stock Plan, as applicable, including but not limited to, “Covered Transaction,” “Change in Control,” “Ownership Change Event” or similar terms and other administrative provisions requiring interpretation shall refer to the appropriate company to reflect the Distribution (e.g., the definition of “Change in Control” under an award agreement subject to the SpinCo Stock Plan shall mean a Change in Control with respect to SpinCo rather than Parent). Except as otherwise provided by this

Article IV, each adjusted Parent Equity Award or assumed and converted SpinCo Equity Award shall be subject to the same or substantially similar terms after the Effective Time as were applicable to the corresponding Parent Equity Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(f)    Cooperation of the Parties.

(g)    Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. By approving the adoption of this Agreement, the respective Board of Directors of each of Parent and SpinCo intend to exempt from the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by reason of the application of Rule 16b-3 thereunder, all acquisitions and dispositions of equity securities by directors and officers of each of Parent and SpinCo contemplated by this Agreement, and the respective Boards of Directors of Parent and SpinCo also intend expressly to approve, in respect of any equity-based award, the use of any method for the payment of an exercise price and the satisfaction of any applicable tax withholding (specifically including the actual or constructive tendering of shares in payment of an exercise price and the withholding of shares from delivery pursuant to any equity-based award in satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements) to the extent such method is permitted under the applicable Parent Stock Plan or SpinCo Stock Plan and any award agreement.

(h)    Liability for Grant, Modification, Exercise or Settlement of Equity Awards. Parent shall be responsible for all liabilities associated with Parent Equity Awards, including all obligations related to the grant, modification, exercise or settlement of such Parent Equity Awards.

including but not limited to compliance with all applicable laws regarding the reporting, withholding or remitting of income and/or other taxes.

(j)    Section 424 and Section 409A. All of the adjustments described in this Article IV shall be effected in accordance with Sections  424 and 409A of the Code, in each case to the extent applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the treatment set forth in this Article IV would cause adverse Tax consequences to any SpinCo Employee located outside of the United States, the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the treatment to be conformed in a manner that does not give rise to such adverse Tax consequences, to the extent practicable.

(k)    Best Efforts. The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to the awards described in this Article IV, to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law.

(l)    Good Faith. The Parties hereby acknowledge that the provisions of this Article IV are intended to achieve certain tax, legal and accounting objectives and, in the event such objectives are not achieved, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith regarding such other actions that may be necessary or appropriate to achieve such objectives.

As soon as practicable following the date on which the employment of the SpinCo Employees is transferred to SpinCo, Parent shall transfer to SpinCo an amount in cash equal to the Accrued Incentive Amount. For the remainder of the applicable cash incentive or sales commission period in effect as of the date on which the transfer of such employment occurs, SpinCo shall provide that each SpinCo Employee shall continue to be eligible to receive a cash incentive bonus or sales commission payment in accordance with the same terms and conditions as applied to such SpinCo Employee under the corresponding Parent incentive or sales commission program as in effect immediately prior to the date of such transfer, as equitably adjusted by SpinCo to the extent necessary to reflect the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement; provided that in no event shall the aggregate incentive amounts paid to the SpinCo Employees in respect of such applicable period be less than the Accrued Incentive Amount.

Section 5.3    Workers’ Compensation Liabilities. Effective no later than the Effective Time, SpinCo shall assume all Liabilities for SpinCo Employees, SpinCo Independent Contractors and Former SpinCo Service Providers related to any and all workers’ compensation injuries, incidents, conditions, claims or coverage, whenever incurred, and SpinCo shall be fully responsible for the administration, management and payment of all such claims and satisfaction of all such Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if SpinCo is unable to assume any such Liability or the administration, management or payment of any such claim solely because of the operation of applicable Law, Parent shall retain such Liabilities and SpinCo shall reimburse and otherwise fully indemnify Parent for all such Liabilities, including the costs of administering the plans, programs or arrangements under which any such Liabilities have accrued or otherwise arisen.

SpinCo shall also be responsible for administering compliance with the health care continuation requirements of COBRA, the certificate of creditable coverage requirements of HIPAA, and the corresponding provisions of the SpinCo Welfare Plans with respect to SpinCo Employees and their covered dependents who incur a COBRA qualifying event or loss of coverage under the SpinCo Welfare Plans at any time on and after the Effective Time.

Section 5.6    Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith regarding the need for any treatment different from that otherwise provided herein with respect to the payment of compensation to ensure that the treatment of such compensation does not cause the imposition of a Tax under Section 409A of the Code. In no event, however, shall any Party be liable to another in respect of any Taxes imposed under, or any other costs or Liabilities relating to, Section 409A of the Code.

Section 5.7    Payroll Taxes and Reporting. The Parties shall utilize the standard procedure set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to wage withholding for SpinCo Employees for purposes of Taxes imposed under the United States Federal Insurance Contributions Act. Under this procedure, the Parties shall each separately provide the required Form W-2 to each SpinCo Employee reflecting all wages paid and Taxes withheld by Parent and SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group, respectively, with respect to each SpinCo Employee for the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs.

(b)    To the extent any SpinCo Employee is, as of the Effective Time, receiving payments as part of any long-term disability insurance program that is part of a Parent Welfare Plan, such SpinCo Employee’s rights to continued long-term disability benefits will transfer to a SpinCo Welfare Plan as of the Effective Time, and the remainder (if any) of such SpinCo Employee’s long-term disability benefits will be paid by a SpinCo Welfare Plan; provided, however, that to the extent the SpinCo Employee cannot transfer to a SpinCo Welfare Plan as of the Effective Date due to long-term disability status, such SpinCo Employee shall be a Delayed Transfer SpinCo Employee and shall continue to participate in the applicable Parent Welfare Plan until such time as the SpinCo Employee returns to work and transfers to SpinCo.

(c)    SpinCo agrees to employ any Delayed Transfer SpinCo Employee who returns from Parent-approved short-term or long-term disability leave within 12 months of the Effective Date.

Section 5.10    Certain Requirements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Transfer Regulations, the terms of a Collective Bargaining Agreement or applicable

Law require that any assets or Liabilities be retained by the Parent Group or transferred to or assumed by the SpinCo Group in a manner that is different from that set forth in this Agreement, such retention, transfer or assumption shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Collective Bargaining Agreement or applicable Law and shall not be made as otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

Section 6.1    Employer Rights.
