Benefit Plans (a) Section 5.13(a) of the Hanover Disclosure Letter lists each material “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA), and all other material employee benefit, bonus, incentive, deferred compensation, stock option (or other equity-based), severance, change in control, welfare (including post-retirement medical and life insurance) and fringe benefit plans, programs and arrangements, whether or not subject to ERISA and, whether written or oral (i) sponsored, maintained or contributed to or required to be contributed to by Hanover or any of its Subsidiaries or to which Hanover or any of its Subsidiaries is a party and (ii) in which any individual who is currently or has been an officer, director or employee of Hanover (a “Hanover Employee”) is a participant (the “Hanover Benefit Plans”). Neither Hanover, any of its Subsidiaries nor any ERISA Affiliate thereof has any commitment or formal plan, whether legally binding or not, to create any additional employee benefit plan or modify or change any existing Hanover Benefit Plan that would affect any Hanover Employee except in the ordinary course of business. Hanover has heretofore delivered or made available to Xxxxxx and Spinco true and complete copies of each Hanover Benefit Plan and any amendments thereto (or if the plan is not a written plan, a description thereof), any related trust or other funding vehicle, the most recent annual reports or summaries required to be prepared or filed under ERISA or the Code and the most recent determination letter received from the IRS with respect to each such plan intended to qualify under Section 401 of the Code and the three most recent years (A) the Form 5500s and attached Schedules, (B) audited financial statements and (C) actuarial valuation reports. (b) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover, (i) neither Hanover nor any of its ERISA Affiliates has incurred any liability under Title IV or Section 302 of ERISA or under Section 412 of the Code that has not been satisfied in full, and (ii) no condition exists that would reasonably be expected to result in Hanover incurring any such liability. (i) No Hanover Benefit Plan is a “multiemployer pension plan,” as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA and (ii) none of Hanover, or any ERISA Affiliate thereof has made or suffered a “complete withdrawal” or a “partial withdrawal,” as such terms are respectively defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA, the liability for which would reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover. (d) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover, each Hanover Benefit Plan has been operated and administered in all respects in accordance with its terms and applicable law, including, but not limited to, ERISA, the Code and the laws of any applicable foreign jurisdiction. Except as would not result in a material liability to Hanover, all contributions required to be made with respect to any Hanover Benefit Plan have been timely made. There are no pending or, to Hanover’s Knowledge, threatened claims by, on behalf of or against any of the Hanover Benefit Plans or any assets thereof, other than routine claims for benefits under such plans, that, if adversely determined could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on Hanover or any of its Subsidiaries and no matter is pending (other than routine qualification determination filings, copies of which have been furnished to Xxxxxx and Spinco or will be promptly furnished to Xxxxxx and Spinco when made) with respect to any of the Hanover Benefit Plans before the IRS, the United States Department of Labor or the PBGC that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover. (e) Each Hanover Benefit Plan intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code has received a determination letter from the IRS stating that they and the trusts maintained thereunder are exempt from taxation under Section 401(a) of the Code, respectively, and each trust maintained under any Hanover Benefit Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 501(c)(9) of the Code has satisfied such requirements and, in any such case, no event has occurred or condition is known to exist that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect such tax-qualified status for any such Hanover Benefit Plan or any such trust. (f) No Hanover Benefit Plan is maintained outside the jurisdiction of the United States, or covers any employee residing or working outside the United States. (g) Except as otherwise provided in or contemplated by this Agreement or any Executed Transaction Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not result by itself or with the passage of time in the payment or acceleration of any amount, the accrual or acceleration of any benefit or any increase in any vested interest or entitlement to any benefit or payment by any employee, officer or director under domestic or foreign law that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover.
Employee Benefit Arrangements (i) All liabilities under the Employee Benefit Arrangements are (A) funded to at least the minimum level required by Law or, if higher, to the level required by the terms governing the Employee Benefit Arrangements, (B) insured with a reputable insurance company, (C) provided for or recognized in the financial statements most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof or (D) estimated in the formal notes to the financial statements most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.01 hereof, where such failure to fund, insure, provide for, recognize or estimate the liabilities arising under such arrangements could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (ii) There are no circumstances which may give rise to a liability in relation to the Employee Benefit Arrangements which are not funded, insured, provided for, recognized or estimated in the manner described in clause (i) above and which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (iii) Each of Parent and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable Laws, trust documentation and contracts relating to the Employee Benefit Arrangements (including pursuant to any applicable procedures under applicable Law, as appropriate), except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any or all of the employee benefit plans of the Company or any Affiliate.
Benefit Arrangements Each Benefit Arrangement has been maintained in compliance, in all material respects, with its terms and with the requirements prescribed by any and all statutes, orders, rules and regulations which are applicable to such Benefit Arrangement, including without limitation, the Code, and with all plan documents.
