SECTION 5 – ELIGIBILITY UNDER OTHER PLANS AND AGREEMENTS

5.1

Except as provided in Section 5.2, this Plan shall entirely supersede and replace all policies, plans, agreements, understandings and arrangements adopted or entered into before December 31, 2006, regarding separation allowances, severance pay and/or similar compensation payable by Progressive to terminated Eligible Employees (other than with respect to any Eligible Employees who may have incurred Separation Dates prior to December 31, 2006).
