(b) After the VESOP Stock Sale, but prior to the Thrift Plan Transfer, the Company shall (i) direct the trustee of the VESOP to release the stock remaining in the Exempt Loan Suspense Account, if any, and allocate such stock to Company Participants and VRM Participants in the VESOP in the manner prescribed by Section 5.5 of the VESOP, as amended, and (ii) following such release and allocation, the Company shall cause the VESOP to be merged into the Company Thrift Plan, in a transaction consistent with the requirements of Section 414(1) of the Code. (c) Immediately after receipt from the VESOP of the accounts of Company and VRM Participants in the VESOP, the trustee of the Company Thrift Plan shall allocate the stock thus transferred to the Participants' respective Thrift Plan accounts; provided that, in the case of any VESOP Participant who, as of the date of such allocation, is not participating in the Company Thrift Plan, the Company and the trustee of the Company Thrift Plan shall take all action necessary to establish a Company Thrift Plan account for such Participant, to which the stock transferred from the VESOP shall be allocated. (d) VRM and the Company shall cooperate in making all appropriate filings required under the Code or ERISA and the regulations thereunder and any applicable securities laws, implementing all appropriate communications with VESOP participants, transferring records, and taking all such other actions as may be necessary and appropriate to implement the provisions of this Section.
