Parent shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, to the extent commercially and administratively practicable, (i) waive, or cause its insurance carriers to waive, all limitations as to pre-existing and at-work conditions, if any, with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Company Employees under any welfare benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) which is made available to Company Employees following the Closing Date by Parent or one of its Affiliates, and (ii) provide credit to Company Employees for any co-payments, deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses paid by such employees under the employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the portion of the relevant plan year including the Closing Date.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the right of TopCo or any of their respective Affiliates to (A) terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time, (B) change or modify the terms or conditions of employment for any Continuing Employee, or (C) change or modify any Sequential Benefit Plan, MSLO Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan or arrangement in accordance with its terms.
Employment and Employee Benefits Matters (a) Parent will cause the Surviving Corporation and each of its Subsidiaries, for the period commencing at the Control Time and ending on the first anniversary thereof (the “Continuation Period”), to (i) maintain for the individuals employed by the Company at the Control Time (the “Current Employees”) and who remain employees of the Surviving Corporation during the Continuation Period base compensation and target incentive compensation that is no less favorable to each Current Employee than such Current Employee’s base compensation and target incentive compensation immediately prior to the Control Time, and (ii) provide benefits that are of comparable economic value in the aggregate to the benefits provided by the Company as of immediately prior to the Control Time (excluding, for purposes of Section 6.4(a)(i) and (ii) equity and equity-based compensation, retention, stay, or transaction bonuses or similar arrangements); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.4 will be construed as an amendment to or prevent the amendment or termination of any particular Company Plan or employee benefit plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, to the extent permissible thereunder, or interfere with the Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ or the Surviving Corporation’s right or obligation to make such changes as are necessary to conform with applicable Law.

Employees and Benefits With respect to Employee Benefit Plans, credit for service accrued by Continuing Employees (and eligible dependents) for employment with Stonepath and/or the Company prior to the Closing Date shall be recognized (except to the extent necessary to prevent duplication of benefits), any pre-existing condition limitations (to the extent such limitations did not apply to a pre-existing condition under a similar or corresponding Stonepath Employee Benefit Plan) and eligibility waiting periods applicable to any Continuing Employee shall be waived, and employees shall be given credit for amounts paid or vesting under any Stonepath or Company Employee Benefit Plan during the same period for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums as though such amounts had been paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Employee Benefit Plan of Purchaser. With respect to 401(k) plan matters, Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in the Company 401(k) plan to be created by Purchaser, effective within 60 days after the Closing Date. Prior to Closing, the Parties will agree on a list of employees that will be terminated by Stonepath and hired by Purchaser at Closing ("Continuing Employees"). Provided that the Company has established medical plans for the Continuing Employees as of the Closing Date, all such Continuing Employees shall be terminated from Stonepath's Employee Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date, pursuant to Applicable Law, and be covered by Purchaser's plans, including medical coverage, thereafter. To the extent the Purchaser does not have new plans in place on the Closing Date, Stonepath shall continue to maintain coverage for the Continuing Employees for the remainder of the month of the Closing Date at Purchaser's expense, including any expenses of administration. The estimated reimbursement for such medical coverage as determined by Stonepath shall be paid by Purchaser to Stonepath prior to the date that it is due from Stonepath, with an actual reconciliation to follow within thirty (30) days of the delivery to Purchaser of documentation of actual costs.
