To Seller’s Knowledge, no event has occurred that could oblige Apptix to indemnify any Person against Liabilities incurred under any statute, regulation or governmental order as it relates to a Benefit Plan.

(m) To Seller’s Knowledge, neither Apptix nor any ERISA Affiliate has contributed to a nonconforming group health plan (as defined under Section 5000(c) of the Code), and no ERISA Affiliate has incurred a tax under Section 5000(a) of the Code which could become a Liability of Apptix or any ERISA Affiliate. Apptix has complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, with respect to each Benefit Plan to the extent applicable to such plan. Apptix does not maintain any plan that is an “employee welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined under Section 3(1) of ERISA) that has provided any “disqualified benefit” (as such term is defined in Section 4976(b) of the Code) with respect to which an excise tax could be imposed under Section 4976 of the Code. Each Benefit Plan that is a "group health plan" (as such term is defined in Section 5000(b)(1) of the Code or Section 607(1) of ERISA) has, to the extent applicable to such plan, been administered in all material respects in compliance with the continuation coverage requirements contained in the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, as set forth at Section 4980B of the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder or Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA or any comparable state law (collectively, “COBRA”), and neither Apptix nor any ERISA Affiliate is subject to any Liability, including additional contributions, fines, taxes, penalties or loss of tax deduction as a result of such administration.

L. No. 111-152 (“HCERA”) and all regulations and guidance issued thereunder (collectively with PPACA and HCERA, the "Healthcare Reform Laws"), to the extent applicable to such plan, and each Benefit Plan has been in compliance in all material respects with all Healthcare Reform Laws since the applicable effective date. No event has occurred, and no condition or circumstance exists, that could reasonably be expected to subject Apptix nor any ERISA Affiliate or any Benefit Plan to penalties or excise taxes under Sections 4980D, 4980H or 4980I of the Code or any other provision of the Healthcare Reform Laws.

(n) No individual who has been classified by Apptix as a non-employee (such as an independent contractor, leased employee, consultant, or any employee of any of the foregoing) shall have a claim against it for eligibility to participate in any Benefit Plans if such individual is later reclassified as an employee of Apptix. No employee of Apptix is a "leased employee" within the meaning of Section 414(n) of the Code.
