Common use of COBRA Benefits Clause in Contracts

COBRA Benefits. If you timely elect and continue to remain eligible for continued group health insurance coverage under federal COBRA law or, if applicable, state insurance laws (collectively, “COBRA”), the Company will pay your COBRA premiums sufficient to continue your group health insurance coverage at the same level in effect as of your employment termination date (including dependent coverage, if applicable) for twelve (12) months after the employment termination date; provided that, the Company’s obligation to pay your COBRA premiums will cease earlier if you become eligible for group health insurance coverage through a new employer and you must provide prompt written notice to the Company if you become eligible for group health insurance coverage through a new employer within twelve (12) months after your employment termination date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that it cannot provide the foregoing benefit without potentially violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Services Act), the Company shall instead provide you a taxable monthly payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that you would otherwise be required to pay to continue your group health coverage in effect from the date of your termination of employment, which payments shall be made regardless of whether you elect COBRA continuation coverage and shall end on the earlier of (x) the date on which you obtain other employment and (y) twelve (12) months after your employment termination date.
