  • COBRA Severance As an additional Severance Benefit, the Company will continue to pay the cost of your health care coverage in effect at the time of your Separation from Service for a maximum of twelve (12) months, either under the Company’s regular health plan (if permitted), or by paying your COBRA premiums (the “COBRA Severance”). The Company’s obligation to pay the COBRA Severance on your behalf will cease if you obtain health care coverage from another source (e.g., a new employer or spouse’s benefit plan), unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law. You must notify the Company within two (2) weeks if you obtain coverage from a new source. This payment of COBRA Severance by the Company would not expand or extend the maximum period of COBRA coverage to which you would otherwise be entitled under applicable law. Notwithstanding the above, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the foregoing COBRA Severance without potentially violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company shall in lieu thereof provide to you a taxable monthly payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that you would be required to pay to continue your group health coverage in effect on the date of your termination (which amount shall be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), which payments shall be made on the last day of each month regardless of whether you elect COBRA continuation coverage and shall end on the earlier of (x) the date upon which you obtain other coverage or (y) the last day of the twelfth (12th) calendar month following your Separation from Service date.

  • COBRA Payments If the Executive is participating in the Company’s group health insurance plans on the date of the Qualifying Termination, and timely elects to continue such coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, or, if applicable, comparable state or local insurance laws (“COBRA”), then the Company will pay, directly to the COBRA carrier, as and when due, the COBRA premiums necessary to continue such health insurance coverage for the Executive and his eligible dependents (“COBRA Continuation Payments”) until the earliest of: (i) the first 12 months of COBRA coverage following the Executive’s Separation from Service, (ii) the expiration of eligibility for COBRA coverage, or (iii) the date when Executive or his dependents become eligible for substantially equivalent health insurance coverage in connection with new employment or self-employment (such period, the “COBRA Payment Period”). However, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company’s payment of the COBRA Continuation Payments would result in a violation of the nondiscrimination rules of Section 105(h)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or any statute or regulation of similar effect (including, but not limited to, the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the 2010 Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act) or otherwise result in a material penalty to the Company, then in lieu of providing the COBRA Continuation Payments for the remainder of the COBRA Payment Period, the Company will instead pay the Executive, on the first day of each month of the remainder of the COBRA Payment Period, a fully taxable cash payment equal to the COBRA Continuation Payments for that month, subject to applicable tax withholdings. In all cases, the Company will make the first payment under this clause on the Initial Payment Date in an amount equal to the aggregate payments that the Company would have paid through such date had such payments commenced on the Separation from Service, with the balance of the payments paid thereafter on the schedule described above. If the Executive becomes eligible for coverage under another employer’s group health plan or otherwise ceases to be eligible for COBRA during the COBRA Payment Period, the Executive must immediately notify the Company of such event, and all payments and obligations under this clause will immediately cease.
