Except as would not result in a material liability to Hanover, all contributions required to be made with respect to any Hanover Benefit Plan have been timely made. There are no pending or, to Hanover’s Knowledge, threatened claims by, on behalf of or against any of the Hanover Benefit Plans or any assets thereof, other than routine claims for benefits under such plans, that, if adversely determined could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect on Hanover or any of its Subsidiaries and no matter is pending (other than routine qualification determination filings, copies of which have been furnished to Xxxxxx and Spinco or will be promptly furnished to Xxxxxx and Spinco when made) with respect to any of the Hanover Benefit Plans before the IRS, the United States Department of Labor or the PBGC that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a material liability to Hanover.
