All covered employees who are members of LACERS, regardless of retirement tier, shall contribute to LACERS four percent (4%) of their pre-tax compensation earnable toward vested retiree health benefits as provided by this program. The retiree health benefit available under this program is a vested benefit for all covered employees who make this contribution, including employees enrolled in LACERS Tier 3. 2. With regard to LACERS Tier 1, as provided by LAAC Section 4.1111, the monthly Maximum Medical Plan Premium Subsidy, which represents the Kaiser 2-party non-Medicare Part A and Part B premium, is vested for all members who made the additional contributions authorized by LAAC Section 4.1003(c). 3. Additionally, with regard to Tier 1 members who made the additional contribution authorized by LAAC Section 4.1003(c), the maximum amount of the annual increase authorized in LAAC Section 4.1111(b) is a vested benefit that shall be granted by the LACERS Board. 4. With regard to LACERS Tier 3, the Implementing Ordinance shall provide that all Tier 3 members shall contribute to LACERS four percent (4%) of their pre-tax compensation earnable toward vested retiree health benefits, and shall amend LAAC Division 4, Chapter 11 to provide the same vested benefits to all Tier 3 members as currently are provided to Tier 1 members who make the same four percent (4%) contribution to LACERS under the retiree health benefit program. 5. The entitlement to retiree health benefits under this provision shall be subject to the rules under LAAC Division 4, Chapter 11 in effect as of the effective date of this provision, and the rules that shall be placed into LAAC Division 4, Chapters 10 and 11, with regard to Tier 3, by the Implementing Ordinance. 6. As further provided herein, the amount of employee contributions is subject to bargaining in future MOU negotiations. 7. The vesting schedule for the Maximum Medical Plan Premium Subsidy for employees enrolled in LACERS Tier 1 and LACERS Tier 3 shall be the same. 8. Employees whose Health Service Credit, as defined in LAAC Division 4, Chapter 11, is based on periods of part-time and less than full-time employment, shall receive full, rather than prorated, Health Service Credit for periods of service. The monthly retiree medical subsidy amount to which these employees are entitled shall be prorated based on the extent to which their service credit is prorated due to their less than full time status.

Proc. 93-39), and, to the knowledge of Seller or the Companies, there are no circumstances that are likely to result in revocation of any such favorable determination letter. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Seller or the Companies, threatened litigation relating to any of the Benefit Plans. None of Seller, any affiliate of Seller, the Companies or the Company Subsidiaries has engaged in a transaction with respect to any Benefit Plan that, assuming the taxable period of such transaction expired as of the date hereof, could subject any Company or any Company Subsidiary or any Benefit Plan to a Tax or penalty imposed by either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA in an amount which could be material. No action has been taken with respect to any of the Benefit Plans to either terminate any of such Benefit Plans or to cause distributions, other than in the Ordinary Course of Business to participants under such Benefit Plans.

There are no restrictions on the rights of any Company or any Company Subsidiary to amend or terminate any Benefit Plan without incurring Liability thereunder. (g) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.10(g) of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the execution of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (or will upon termination of employment prior to or after the date hereof) (i) entitle any employee, director or consultant of any Company or any Company Subsidiary to severance pay or increase in severance pay, unemployment compensation or any other payment; (ii) accelerate the time of payment or vesting or funding (through a grantor trust or otherwise) or increase the amount of payment with respect to any compensation due to any employee, director or consultant; or (iii) meet the definition of a "Change in Control Event" or otherwise accelerate vesting of any award granted under the Seller's Performance Incentive Compensation Program.
