the terms of the Company’s medical and dental benefit plans and are not eligible for comparable coverage under the plan of a
subsequent employer. An initial reimbursement shall be made during the 10 calendar days following six months from the
Effective Date for payments made through that date; a second and final reimbursement, if necessary, shall be made within 10
days following the one-year anniversary of the Effective Date for any additional reimbursement due; provided that for purposes
of this sentence, the Effective Date shall be deemed to occur at such time as you have also had a separation from service, as
determined in accordance with any policies or practices that the Company shall adopt in accordance with, or as otherwise
determined pursuant to, Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder.
