Common use of COOPERATION AND REIMBURSEMENT Clause in Contracts

COOPERATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. Executive agrees, both during Executive's employment and following the termination of Executive's employment, to cooperate reasonably with the Company or any other Qwest entity in connection with any dispute, lawsuit, arbitration, or any internal or external investigation involving Qwest or any of their predecessors (a "Proceeding") with respect to which Qwest believes in good faith that Executive may possess relevant information. In that event, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times, and for reasonable periods, Executive agrees to make himself or herself available for interviews, witness preparation sessions, and appearances in connection with any Proceeding (including, but not limited to, appearances at depositions, hearings and trials). Recognizing that upon Executive's separation from Company, participating in interviews or witness preparation sessions may be a burden, Company agrees to reimburse Executive for the time Executive spends involved in interviews and witness preparation sessions requested by Qwest at a rate equal to Executive's final base salary, computed on an hourly basis (assuming a 40 hour work week), for such time actually spent in such interviews or witness preparation sessions. In addition, Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses Executive incurs in connection with such interviews and witness preparation sessions. Company will not be obligated to reimburse Executive for lost wages, lost opportunities, or other financial consequences of such cooperation, or to make any other payment to Executive other than the payments by Company referred to in the two previous sentences of this paragraph of this Agreement; provided, however, nothing in this paragraph 11 shall impair or limit any rights or entitlement Executive may have to indemnification and director's and officer's liability insurance coverage. The parties further agree that Company will not, and will not be obligated to, reimburse Executive for any time spent testifying in any Proceeding (including, but not limited to, appearances at depositions, hearings and trials), although Company will reimburse reasonable expenses for such appearances, as provided above. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit, restrict, preclude, require or influence Executive's testimony in any Proceeding or cause Executive not to provide truthful testimony or information in any matter or in response to any inquiry by a government official or representative. Company's obligation to reimburse Executive as described above is conditional upon Executive providing, at all times, information that he objectively, reasonably and in good faith believes to be truthful in connection with any Proceeding.
