(b) During the Protection Period, Parent shall or shall cause the Surviving Company to assume and honor the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ obligations under all employment, severance, and bonus agreements, if any, between the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, on the one hand, and a Continuing Employee, on the other hand, immediately prior to the Effective Time, including but not limited to the MoneyGram Payment Systems, Inc.

The Continuing Employees shall be given credit for amounts paid under a corresponding Plan of the Company or any Subsidiary during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Parent Plan during the applicable plan year.
