Retiree Medical Benefits If Executive is or would become fifty-five (55) or older and Executive's age and service equal sixty-five (65) and Executive has at least five (5) years of service with the Company within two (2) years of Change in Control, Executive is eligible for retiree medical benefits (as such are determined immediately prior to Change in Control). Executive is eligible to commence receiving such retiree medical benefits based on the terms and conditions of the applicable plans in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.
Retiree Medical (i) The Executive shall be entitled to receive retiree medical benefits during the Executive’s lifetime in accordance with the eligibility requirements, terms and conditions, and plan offerings for access to retiree medical benefits provided generally to full-time employees of the Company. The Executive may cover the individual who is the Executive’s spouse as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment (the “Spouse”) and/or the individuals who are the Executive’s dependent children as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment (the “Dependents”), to the extent eligible at the time of the Executive’s retirement, according to the terms and conditions of the Company’s retiree medical benefit plan. The cost of such benefits for the Executive, the Executive’s Spouse and eligible Dependents, will be 100% of the premiums and will be reimbursed by the Company on an annual basis up to the date the Executive reaches Medicare eligibility due to age, at which point such reimbursement will cease. Such reimbursement shall be made in accordance with the Company’s reimbursement practices, and in all events no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the premiums were incurred, and in accordance with the other requirements of Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) (or any similar or successor provisions). Depending on the plan, all or a portion of the reimbursement may be taxable. Such benefits shall include prescription drug coverage, but not dental or vision benefits unless included in the medical plan. (ii) Upon reaching Medicare eligibility due to age, Medicare shall become the primary payor of medical/prescription benefits for the Executive, the Executive’s Spouse or eligible Dependents as applicable, and the reimbursement of premiums for such coverage by the Company shall cease. (iii) The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all retiree medical plans, practices, policies and programs at any time without recourse by the Executive, so long as the Company takes such action generally with respect to other similarly situated officers; provided that, if the Company terminates retiree access to medical and/or prescription benefits generally for retirees, the Executive shall be entitled to an annual reimbursement from the Company upon proof of continued coverage for comparable medical and/or prescription coverage under an individual policy or other group policy, subject to a maximum total reimbursement of one and one-half (1½) times the applicable premium of the plan in effect at the time retiree access is terminated at the applicable coverage level, and subject to maximum annual inflation adjustment thereafter of five percent (5%). (iv) Upon the death of the Executive, a surviving Spouse will continue eligibility and reimbursement as described above. Surviving Dependent children will not receive premium reimbursement beyond the COBRA continuation period. For all other COBRA qualifying events other than the death of the Executive, reimbursement will cease upon commencement of the COBRA continuation period.
Pre-Retirement Leave An Employee scheduled to retire and to receive a superannuation allowance under the applicable pension Acts or who has reached the mandatory retiring age, shall be entitled to: (a) A special paid leave for a period equivalent to fifty percent (50%) of his/her accumulated sick leave credit, to be taken immediately prior to retirement; or (b) A special cash payment of an amount equivalent to the cash value of fifty percent (50%) of his/her accumulated sick leave credit, to be paid immediately prior to retirement and based upon his/her current rate of pay.

The Employee may use this payment, as well as any other payment made under this Section 6, for such continuation coverage or for any other purpose. To the extent the Employee pays the cost of such coverage, and the cost of such coverage is not deductible as a medical expense by the Employee, the Company shall "gross-up" the amount of such reimbursement for all taxes payable by the Employee on the amount of such reimbursement and the amount of such gross-up.
