Common use of Health and Life Insurance Coverages Clause in Contracts

Health and Life Insurance Coverages. (a) The group health care (including any executive medical plan) and group term life insurance benefits coverages provided to Executive at his Date of Termination shall be continued at the same level as for active executives and in the same manner as if his employment under this Agreement had not terminated, beginning on the Date of Termination and ending on the last day of the CIC Severance Period. Any additional coverages Executive had at termination, including dependent coverage, will also be continued for such period on the same terms, to the extent permitted by the applicable policies or contracts. Any costs Executive was paying for such coverages at the time of termination shall be paid by Executive by separate check payable to the Company each month in advance. If the terms of any benefit plan referred to in this Section, or the laws applicable to such plan do not permit continued participation by Executive, then the Company will arrange for other coverage(s) satisfactory to Executive at Company’s expense which provides substantially similar benefits or, at Executive’s election, will pay Executive a lump sum amount equal to the costs of such coverage(s) for the CIC Severance Period. (b) For purposes of any individual executive life insurance policy (or policies) maintained by the Company for Executive, the Company shall continue to pay the premiums for such policy or policies during the CIC Severance Period.
