Assumption by SpinCo Clause Samples
The "Assumption by SpinCo" clause establishes that SpinCo, the company being spun off, agrees to take on certain specified liabilities and obligations from the parent company as part of the separation process. In practice, this means SpinCo will formally accept responsibility for debts, contracts, or other commitments that are allocated to it under the terms of the separation agreement. This clause ensures a clear transfer of responsibility, preventing disputes over which entity is liable for particular obligations after the spin-off, and thereby facilitates a clean and organized division of assets and liabilities.

Thus, SpinCo and the SpinCo Health and Welfare Plans shall be responsible for all Liabilities that pertain to Transferred Individuals regardless of when incurred, including all reported claims that are unpaid, all incurred but not reported claims as of the Distribution Date, and all claims incurred after the Distribution Date that pertain to Transferred Individuals under the Parent Health and Welfare Plans and the SpinCo Health and Welfare Plans. SpinCo shall be required to make all payments due or payable to Transferred Individuals under the appropriate SpinCo Health and Welfare Plans for the period beginning immediately after the Distribution Date, including all reported claims that are unpaid and all incurred but not reported claims as of the Distribution Date.

Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 5.1, neither SpinCo nor a SpinCo Health and Welfare Plan shall assume any Liability with respect to: (i) a claim incurred on or prior to the Distribution Date for which Parent or a Parent Health and Welfare Plan has insurance coverage, or (ii) any benefit claim for which Parent is responsible under Section 5.3.
