Benefit Limit In the event that any payments or benefits to which Employee becomes entitled in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (or any other agreement with the Company or any other corporation or entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company) would otherwise constitute a parachute payment under Code Section 280G(b)(2), then such payments and/or benefits will be subject to reduction to the extent necessary to assure that Employee receives only the greater of (i) the amount of those payments which would not constitute such a parachute payment or (ii) the amount which yields Employee the greatest after-tax amount of benefits after taking into account any excise tax imposed under Code Section 4999 on the payments and benefits provided Employee under this Agreement (or on any other payments or benefits to which Employee may become entitled in connection with any change in control or ownership of the Company or the subsequent termination of his employment with the Company). The benefit limits of this paragraph shall be calculated as of the date on which the event triggering any parachute payment is effected, and such calculation shall be completed within thirty (30) days after such effective date. Should the completed calculations require a reduction in benefits in order to satisfy the benefit limit of this paragraph, then the portion of any parachute payment otherwise payable in cash to Employee shall be reduced to the extent necessary to comply with such benefit limit, with each such cash payment to be reduced pro-rata but without any change in the payment dates, and with the cash severance payments detailed herein to be the first and then the benefit payments to be the next such payments so reduced. Should such benefit limit still be exceeded following such reduction, then the number of shares which would otherwise vest on an accelerated basis under each of Employee’s outstanding equity awards shall be reduced to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess, with such reduction to be applied to such equity awards in the same chronological order in which those awards were made.
Benefit Level The primary care clinics available through each plan administrator are assigned a Benefit Level. The Benefit Levels are outlined in the benefit chart below. Primary care clinics may be in different Benefit Levels for different plan administrators. Family members may be enrolled in clinics that are in different Benefits Levels. Employees and their dependents may change to clinics in different Benefit Levels during the annual open enrollment. Employees and their dependents may also elect to move to a clinic in a different Benefit Level within the same plan administrator up to two (2) additional times during the plan year. Unless the individual has a referral from his/her primary care clinic, there are no benefits for services received from providers in Benefit Levels that are different from that of the primary care clinic in which the individual has enrolled.

The parties acknowledge that this Agreement shall constitute an effective waiver of any rights in the other's pension benefit plans.
