In the event that termination of any Plan described in this Section 8.11 would trigger liquidation charges, surrender charges, or other fees, then the Company shall cause the Equity Holders’ Representative to take such actions as are necessary to reasonably estimate the amount of such charges or fees and provide such estimate in writing to the Buyer no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date

The Parties agree that there shall be no gap in participation by Corporation Employees in a tax-qualified defined contribution plan.
