The Parties hereto agree that none of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, including this Agreement, shall result in any SpinCo Employee or Former SpinCo Employee incurring or being deemed to have incurred a termination of employment or being eligible to receive severance benefits, solely as a result of the Distribution. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, through and until immediately prior to the Distribution Date, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause the contract of services of any SpinCo Independent Contractor to be transferred to (or retained by, as applicable) a member of the SpinCo Group and (ii) cause the contract of services of any SpinCo Independent Contractor who will no longer provide services to the SpinCo Group as of the Distribution Date, to be transferred to a member of the RemainCo Group.

Section 2.2      Delayed Transfer Employees. To the extent that applicable Law or any arrangement with a Governmental Entity prevents the Parties from causing any RemainCo Employee who is intended to be a SpinCo Employee to be employed by a member of the SpinCo Group as of the Distribution Date as contemplated by Section 2.1 (each such employee, a “Delayed Transfer Employee” and the SpinCo Group entity to which such Delayed Transfer Employee is intended to be transferred, the “Destination Employer”), the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that (i) such Delayed Transfer Employee becomes employed by the Destination Employer at the earliest time permitted by applicable Law or such agreement with a Governmental Entity and (ii) the Destination Employer receives the benefit of such Delayed Transfer Employee’s services from and after the Distribution Date, including under the Transition Services Agreement or by entering into an employee leasing or similar arrangement (which shall provide for full reimbursement of the RemainCo Group for compensation and other costs incurred by the RemainCo Group in connection with such delay). “Delayed Transfer Employee” shall also include any RemainCo Employee who, following the Distribution Date, provides services to the SpinCo Group under the Transition Services Agreement and whose employment, as mutually agreed by the Parties, is intended to transfer to the SpinCo Group following the completion of the applicable Transition Services Agreement service, and with respect to such Delayed Transfer Employees, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such Delayed Transfer Employee becomes employed by the SpinCo Group as soon as practicable following the completion of the applicable Transition Services Agreement service. From and after the commencement of a Delayed Transfer Employee’s employment with the Destination Employer, such Delayed Transfer Employee shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement, including Section 4.2, as if such Delayed Transfer Employee commenced employment with the Destination Employer as of the Distribution Date as contemplated by Section 2.1 and the SpinCo Group and RemainCo Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other in transferring any Liabilities and Assets related to such Delayed Transfer Employee in accordance with the general principles set forth herein.

Prior to the Distribution Date, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith and take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure the proper and prompt transfer of the sponsorship of work permits and immigration visas as applicable.

The RemainCo Group shall be solely responsible for all Liabilities, including all severance or other separation payments and benefits, relating to the termination or alleged termination of any RemainCo Employee’s employment and any Former RemainCo Employee’s employment, whenever occurring and all Liabilities relating to the termination or alleged termination of any Current SpinCo (FEC) Employee’s employment occurring prior to such Current SpinCo (FEC) Employee’s employment with the SpinCo Group. For the avoidance of doubt, such Liabilities shall include any employer-paid portion of any Employment Taxes and shall be treated as Liabilities of RemainCo and the RemainCo Group in accordance with the principles of Section 2.3.

Article VI

CERTAIN WELFARE BENEFIT PLAN MATTERS;
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION CLAIMS

Section 6.1      SpinCo Welfare Plans. Without limiting the generality of Section 2.4, effective as of the Distribution Date or such other date as agreed to between RemainCo and SpinCo which may be prior to the Distribution Date (such applicable date, the “Welfare Plan Date”), SpinCo shall establish Welfare Plans (collectively, the “SpinCo Welfare Plans”), which shall have material terms and conditions that are, subject to applicable Law, no less favorable in the aggregate than the terms and conditions (including employee contributions, employer contributions, benefit coverage, deductibles, copays, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximums, eligibility requirements, and benefit levels) of the RemainCo Welfare Plans applicable to SpinCo Employees, to provide welfare benefits to SpinCo Employees (and their dependents and beneficiaries) in each applicable jurisdiction and as of the applicable Welfare Plan Date, and each such SpinCo Employee (and his or her dependents and beneficiaries) shall cease active participation in the corresponding RemainCo Welfare Plan as of the applicable Welfare Plan Date.

Section 6.2      Allocation of Welfare Benefit Claims. (a) The members of the RemainCo Group shall retain all Liabilities in accordance with the applicable RemainCo Welfare Plan for all reimbursement claims (such as medical and dental claims) and for all non-reimbursement claims (such as life insurance claims), in each case, incurred by SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees (and each of their respective dependents and beneficiaries) under such plans prior to the applicable Welfare Plan Date and (b) the members of the SpinCo Group shall retain all Liabilities in accordance with the SpinCo Welfare Plans for all reimbursement claims (such as medical and dental claims) and for all non-reimbursement claims (such as life insurance claims), in each case, incurred by SpinCo Employees (and each of their respective dependents and beneficiaries) on or after the applicable Welfare Plan Date; provided that SpinCo shall reimburse RemainCo in accordance with the Transition Services Agreement for Liabilities incurred under clause (a) that are incurred by SpinCo Employees between the Distribution Date and the applicable Welfare Plan Date, if the Welfare Plan Date is later than the Distribution Date (such Liabilities, the “Welfare Plan Liabilities”). For purposes of this Section 6.2, a benefit claim shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) health, dental, vision, employee assistance program and prescription drug benefits (including in respect of any hospital confinement), upon provision of such services, materials or supplies; and (ii) life, accidental death and dismemberment and business travel accident insurance benefits, upon the death, cessation of employment or other event giving rise to such benefits.

Section 6.3      Workers’ Compensation Claims. In the case of any workers’ compensation claim of any SpinCo Employee, Former SpinCo Employee, SpinCo Independent Contractor, or Former SpinCo Independent Contractor in respect of his or her employment, engagement, or service with the RemainCo Group or the SpinCo Group, such claim shall be covered (a) under the applicable RemainCo Workers’ Compensation Plan if the Workers’ Compensation Event occurred prior to the Distribution Date (including if such claim is not reported until after the Distribution Date and if such claim arises from cumulative trauma, occupational disease, or any condition involving exposure over time) and (b) under a workers’ compensation plan of the SpinCo Group (each, a “SpinCo Workers’ Compensation Plan”) for the applicable jurisdiction if the Workers’ Compensation Event occurs on or after the Distribution Date, in each case, regardless of the period or duration of exposure or employment or engagement with the RemainCo Group or the SpinCo Group. For purposes of this Section 6.3, the date on which a Workers’ Compensation Event occurred will be determined exclusively by reference to the legally defined “injury date” under applicable workers’ compensation Law. There shall be no apportionment, contribution, reimbursement, or shared liability between RemainCo and SpinCo with respect to any such claims, and neither Party shall administer, defend, or otherwise manage claims on behalf of the other following the Distribution Date. Subject to applicable Law, the applicable members of the RemainCo Group shall (i) keep the applicable members of the SpinCo Group reasonably informed (no less frequently than on a quarterly basis) on the status of any claim(s) submitted under a RemainCo Workers’ Compensation Plan pursuant to this Section 6.3 (including the type of claim(s) and identity(ies) of the affected employee(s)) and (ii) shall consult in good faith on a reasonably prompt basis with the applicable members of the SpinCo Group regarding any material developments, settlement discussions or insurer communications with respect to any such insurance claim to the extent that such developments, discussions or communications would have, or would reasonably be likely to have, a significant adverse impact on the SpinCo Group’s brand, reputation or business relationships (including with its employees and customers).

Section 6.4      COBRA. In the event that a Former SpinCo Employee was receiving continuation health coverage pursuant to COBRA on or prior to the applicable Welfare Plan Date under a RemainCo Welfare Plan, RemainCo and the RemainCo Welfare Plans shall remain responsible for provision of COBRA coverage and all COBRA-related Liabilities to such Former SpinCo Employee (or his or her eligible dependents) in respect of COBRA. Such COBRA coverage shall continue to be provided by RemainCo and under the RemainCo Welfare Plans through the end of the applicable COBRA coverage period required by applicable Law. In the event that a SpinCo Employee becomes eligible to receive continuation health coverage pursuant to COBRA following the applicable Welfare Plan Date, SpinCo and the SpinCo Welfare Plans shall be responsible for provision of COBRA coverage and all COBRA-related Liabilities to such SpinCo Employee (or his or her eligible dependents) in respect of COBRA.

Section 6.5      Health Savings Account. Effective as of the Welfare Plan Date, the health savings accounts of SpinCo Employees who were participants in the RemainCo Health Savings Account immediately prior to the Welfare Plan Date shall, at the election of the SpinCo Employee, be either (i) distributed to SpinCo Employee as a direct rollover distribution or (ii) transferred from the RemainCo Health Savings Account to the SpinCo Health Savings Account pursuant to a trustee-to-trustee transfer and all activity under such accounts for the calendar year in which the Welfare Plan Date occurs shall be treated as activity under the SpinCo Health Savings Account. Without limiting the generality of Section 2.3, Section 2.4 and Section 14.1 and subject to Section 16.9, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in administering any RemainCo Health Savings Account and SpinCo Health Savings Account in connection with the Distribution in accordance with the terms of the applicable RemainCo Benefit Plan and SpinCo Benefit Plan, including by exchanging any necessary participant records and engaging recordkeepers, administrators, providers, insurers and other third parties. Further to the above, as of the Distribution Date, the RemainCo Group shall cease making any applicable employer contributions to, and cease facilitating payroll deductions into, any Health Savings Accounts for any SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees.

Section 6.6      Flexible Spending Account. Effective as of the Welfare Plan Date, SpinCo shall have in place for SpinCo Employees health care, dependent care and limited purpose SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts to provide benefits to SpinCo Employees who participated in the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts as of immediately prior to the Welfare Plan Date. RemainCo and SpinCo shall take all actions necessary or appropriate, consistent with "Situation 2" of Revenue Ruling 2002-32, so that, effective as of the Welfare Plan Date, (a) the account balances (whether positive or negative) of SpinCo Employees who are participants in the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts (the “SpinCo FSA Participants”) shall be transferred to the SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts; (b) the elections, contribution levels and coverage levels of the SpinCo FSA Participants shall apply under SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts in the same manner as under RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts; and (c) the SpinCo FSA Participants shall be reimbursed from the SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts for claims (i) incurred at any time during the plan year of the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts during which the Welfare Plan Date occurs (or during any grace period or extended grace period applicable to the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts), and (ii) submitted to the SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts from and after the Welfare Plan Date, substantially on the same basis, terms and conditions as under RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Welfare Plan Date, (x) if the aggregate benefits paid by the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts to the SpinCo FSA Participants prior to the Welfare Plan Date exceed the aggregate payroll deductions for the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts made in respect of the SpinCo FSA Participants at or prior to the Welfare Plan Date, then SpinCo shall reimburse RemainCo for the amount of such excess or (y) if the aggregate payroll deductions for the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts made in respect of the SpinCo FSA Participants at or prior to the Welfare Plan Date exceed the aggregate benefits paid by the RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts to the SpinCo FSA Participants prior to the Welfare Plan Date, then RemainCo shall reimburse SpinCo for the amount of such excess. Without limiting the generality of Section 2.3, Section 2.4 and Section 14.1 and subject to Section 16.9, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in administering any RemainCo Flexible Spending Accounts and SpinCo Flexible Spending Accounts in connection with the Distribution in accordance with the terms of the applicable RemainCo Benefit Plan and SpinCo Benefit Plan, including by exchanging any necessary participant records and engaging recordkeepers, administrators, providers, insurers and other third parties. Further to the above, as of the Distribution Date, the RemainCo Group shall cease making any applicable employer contributions to, and cease facilitating payroll deductions into, any Flexible Spending Accounts for SpinCo Employees or Former SpinCo Employees.

Section 6.7      Retiree Health Benefits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, to the extent that any SpinCo Employee is eligible to receive vested retiree health benefits under any RemainCo Welfare Plan as of immediately prior to the Distribution Date, such SpinCo Employee will continue to be eligible to receive (or continue receiving) such vested retiree health benefits pursuant to the terms of the applicable RemainCo Welfare Plan.

Article VII

DISABILITY

Section 7.1      SpinCo Disability Plans. No later than the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall establish or maintain, or cause to be established or maintained, long- and short-term disability insurance plans sponsored by SpinCo (the “SpinCo Disability Plans”), which shall have material terms and conditions that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the terms and conditions of the long- and short-term disability insurance plans sponsored by RemainCo (the “RemainCo Disability Plans”) applicable to SpinCo Employees, to provide long- and short-term disability benefits to SpinCo Employees in each applicable jurisdiction. Effective as of the Distribution Date or such other date as agreed to between RemainCo and SpinCo which may be prior to the Distribution Date, all SpinCo Employees receiving long- and short-term disability benefits under the RemainCo Disability Plans who are eligible to participate in the SpinCo Disability Plans shall become participants in the SpinCo Disability Plans and RemainCo shall have no outstanding Liabilities under the RemainCo Disability Plans with respect to such SpinCo Employees. To the extent that any SpinCo Employees receiving long- and short-term disability benefits under the RemainCo Disability Plans are not eligible to participate in the SpinCo Disability Plans as of the Distribution Date, such SpinCo Employees shall continue to participate in the RemainCo Disability Plans following the Distribution Date and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to facilitate the allocation of Assets and Liabilities, necessary transfer of employment and mutually agreed-upon reimbursements, in each case, with respect to such SpinCo Employees.

Article VIII

DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS

Section 8.1      SpinCo U.S. Defined Benefit Pension Plan. No later than the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall establish or maintain, or cause to be established or maintained, a new U.S. defined benefit pension plan sponsored by SpinCo (the “SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan”), which shall have material terms and conditions (including eligibility, benefit accrual formulas, vesting, forms of payment, and ancillary benefits) that are substantially the same as the Freight Benefits (as defined in the RemainCo Employees’ Pension Plan (the “RemainCo Pension Plan”)) and shall be (or remain) qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, and a trust that is part of such SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan and which shall be exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code (the “SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust”).

Section 8.2      RemainCo Defined Benefit Pension Plan. Notwithstanding Section 2.4 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, following the Distribution Date, the RemainCo Group shall retain sponsorship of the RemainCo Pension Plan and all Assets and Liabilities arising out of or relating to the RemainCo Pension Plan; provided that effective as of the Distribution Date, RemainCo shall assign (or cause such assignment to be effectuated), and SpinCo shall accept such assignment (or cause such assignment to be accepted), to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan all Liabilities for vested and unvested benefits under the RemainCo Pension Plan relating to SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants who are actively employed by SpinCo on the Distribution Date (the “SpinCo U.S. Pension Liabilities”) and the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan shall apply the same beneficiary designations that were in effect with respect to such SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants under the RemainCo Pension Plan immediately prior to the Distribution Date, unless such SpinCo U.S. Pension Participant affirmatively elects otherwise.

Section 8.3      Pension Asset Transfer. Effective as of the Distribution Date, each SpinCo U.S. Pension Participant shall cease to accrue any additional benefits under the RemainCo Pension Plan and shall become a participant in the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan. As soon as administratively practicable following the Distribution Date, but subject to the following paragraphs, RemainCo shall transfer (or cause to be transferred) from the applicable tax-qualified trust which is part of the RemainCo Pension Plan (the “RemainCo Pension Trust”) to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust an amount of Assets (the “Pension Asset Transfer Amount”) from the RemainCo Pension Trust with a fair market value equal to no less than the amount that would be allocated to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants (and their alternate payees and beneficiaries, if any) if the RemainCo Pension Plan were terminated on the Distribution Date and Assets were allocated to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants (and their alternate payees and beneficiaries, if any) in accordance with Section 4044 of ERISA as calculated by an actuary designated by RemainCo using the actuarial assumptions and calculation procedures used by RemainCo in the determination of the amount of the most recent Projected Benefit Obligation (as defined in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715) disclosed by RemainCo in an applicable filing with the SEC in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 715-30, except that the discount rate assumption shall be the discount rate used by RemainCo for its internal modeling, reporting and financial statement purposes as of the last day of the calendar month immediately prior to the calendar month in which the Distribution Date occurs, with the fair market value of such transferred Assets based on actual market values as of the date of transfer (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such amount of Assets shall be determined and certified by an actuary in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Code and Treasury Regulation 1.414(l)-1 promulgated thereunder). The date of such transfer is hereinafter referred to as the “SpinCo U.S. Pension Transfer Date.”

(a)            The Pension Asset Transfer Amount shall be adjusted, for the period between the Distribution Date and the SpinCo U.S. Pension Transfer Date, to reflect (i) investment earnings (or losses) on the Pension Asset Transfer Amount, based on the actual rate of return for the RemainCo Pension Plan during such period, (ii) any benefit payments that are made from the RemainCo Pension Trust to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants during such period and (iii) reasonable costs and expenses incurred by RemainCo in respect of the SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants during such period, including consulting, investment manager, legal and audit fees and costs and PBGC premiums associated with the Pension Asset Transfer Amount that are payable in connection with such period. The Pension Asset Transfer Amount, as adjusted in accordance with the preceding sentence, shall be transferred in a combination of cash and in-kind Assets as agreed between RemainCo and SpinCo, provided, however, that the RemainCo Pension Trust shall not be obligated to convert Assets into cash to the extent that such conversion would result in a significant reduction in the value of such Assets or the remaining Assets with respect to the RemainCo Pension Plan.

(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, no transfer of Liabilities or Assets shall be made from the RemainCo Pension Trust to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust until the later of (x) such date as agreed to between RemainCo and SpinCo in accordance with the Transition Services Agreement, if any, and (y) such time as RemainCo has determined, in its sole discretion, that (i) SpinCo has established the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust, (ii) the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan satisfies the requirements for a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code, (iii) the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust is exempt from tax under Section 501(a) of the Code and (iv) the parties have received all other approvals from all applicable Governmental Entities (or such approvals are pending). Following the SpinCo U.S. Pension Transfer Date, RemainCo and the RemainCo Group shall have no further liability (either under this Agreement or otherwise) to provide the SpinCo U.S. Pension Participants with benefits under the RemainCo Pension Plan.

(c)            The SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan and the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust (and any successor to such plan and/or trust) shall provide that (i) with respect to Assets transferred to the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust from the RemainCo Pension Trust, such Assets shall be held by the SpinCo U.S. Pension Trust for the exclusive benefit of the participants in the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan, and (ii) the accrued benefits as of the Distribution Date of each SpinCo U.S. Pension Participant may not be decreased by amendment or otherwise.

(d)            Following the date of this Agreement, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in establishing and administering the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan, including by exchanging any necessary participant records, engaging recordkeepers, administrators, providers, insurers and other third parties and making any and all filings and submissions to the appropriate Governmental Entities in effectuating the provisions of this Section 8.3 (including IRS Forms 5310-A in respect of the transfers of Assets and, in the event that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute a “reportable event” within the meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA and the regulations promulgated thereunder for which the applicable notice period has not been waived, timely notification to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation and filing of all reports required in connection therewith). For the avoidance of doubt, the SpinCo U.S. Pension Plan shall be a SpinCo Benefit Plan.

Section 8.4      Non-U.S. Partial Transfer Pension Plans. Except as required by applicable Law or under the terms of a Local Agreement, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate an assignment and transfer of Liabilities for vested and unvested benefits relating to SpinCo Employees, and an amount of Assets related thereto (to the extent such Assets have been set aside), under any non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans sponsored by RemainCo or a member of the RemainCo Group in respect of employees in Canada and Mexico (each, a “RemainCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan”) to a non-U.S. defined benefit pension plan or plans sponsored by SpinCo (each, a “SpinCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan”) in accordance with the principles of Section 8.3 (or any analogous principles or other requirements under applicable Law), except that the amount of Assets transferred from any such RemainCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan (or any trust related thereto) to a corresponding SpinCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan (or any trust related thereto) shall be determined on a plan-by-plan, country-by-country (or, if required by applicable Law, other jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction) basis and shall be equal to a percentage of the Projected Benefit Obligation relating to SpinCo Employees participating in such RemainCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan or SpinCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan, as of the Distribution Date, applicable to such plan in such country (or other required jurisdiction) equal to the applicable RemainCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan’s funding level (expressed as a percentage and as determined by an actuary designated by RemainCo) in such country (or other required jurisdiction) as of the Distribution Date, or such higher amount as required by applicable Law in such country (or other required jurisdiction). For the avoidance of doubt, any such SpinCo Partial Transfer Pension Plan shall be a SpinCo Benefit Plan. Further details regarding the treatment of the RemainCo Partial Transfer Pension Plans and SpinCo Partial Transfer Pension Plans will be as set forth in the applicable Local Agreement.

Article IX

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

Section 9.1      SpinCo 401(k) Plan. Effective as of the Distribution Date, SpinCo Employees shall cease active participation in each RemainCo Benefit Plan that is a defined contribution retirement plan with a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (collectively, the “RemainCo 401(k) Plans”) and SpinCo shall establish one or more defined contribution plans that include a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code that shall (i) have material terms and conditions that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the terms and conditions of the RemainCo 401(k) Plans that apply to SpinCo Employees and (ii) be dual qualified under the U.S. and Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Codes (collectively, the “SpinCo 401(k) Plans”). Each SpinCo Employee who was actively participating in a RemainCo 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Distribution Date shall be automatically enrolled, as of the Distribution Date, in the corresponding SpinCo 401(k) Plan, applying the same salary deferral, investment elections and beneficiary designations that were in effect with respect to such SpinCo Employee under the applicable RemainCo 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Distribution Date, unless such SpinCo Employee affirmatively elects otherwise. Each SpinCo Employee who is not a participant in a RemainCo 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Distribution Date shall be permitted to enroll in the applicable SpinCo 401(k) Plan on or after the Distribution Date in accordance with the terms of such applicable SpinCo 401(k) Plan.

Section 9.2      401(k) Asset Transfer. As soon as practicable on or after the Distribution Date, RemainCo shall take all commercially reasonable measures needed to cause the transfer to the SpinCo 401(k) Plans of all of the Assets and Liabilities of the corresponding RemainCo 401(k) Plan that are attributable to SpinCo Employees, including all promissory notes and receivables in respect of plan loans to SpinCo Employees under the RemainCo 401(k) Plan that remain outstanding as of the Distribution Date and accrued Liabilities arising out of any applicable qualified domestic relations order. SpinCo shall direct the trustees of the SpinCo 401(k) Plans to accept such transfers of Assets and Liabilities from the RemainCo 401(k) Plans. Such transfers of Assets and Liabilities shall be made in accordance with the applicable requirements of Sections 411(d)(6) and 414(l) of the Code. SpinCo and RemainCo shall cooperate to take any and all commercially reasonable measures needed to effect the transition to the SpinCo 401(k) Plans of all outstanding loans under the RemainCo 401(k) Plans with respect to SpinCo Employees so as to prevent, to the extent reasonably possible, a deemed distribution or loan offset with respect to such outstanding loans. Such actions may include, for example, permitting a SpinCo Employee to continue to make scheduled loan payments to the RemainCo 401(k) Plan after the Distribution, but before the RemainCo 401(k) Plan Assets and Liabilities are transferred to the SpinCo 401(k) Plan, and adopting administrative procedures to facilitate such loan payments. The RemainCo Group and the RemainCo 401(k) Plans shall have no further Liabilities with respect to any SpinCo Employee whose RemainCo 401(k) Plan account balance is transferred to a SpinCo 401(k) Plan in accordance with this Section 9.2 (such Liabilities, the “SpinCo 401(k) Plan Liabilities”).

Section 9.3      Employer 401(k) Plan Contributions. The RemainCo Group shall remain responsible for making all employer contributions to the RemainCo 401(k) Plan with respect to any SpinCo Employees relating to periods prior to the Distribution; provided that, prior to the transfer of any SpinCo Employee’s account pursuant to Section 9.2, the RemainCo Group shall make all employer contributions with respect to such SpinCo Employee required under the RemainCo 401(k) Plan for periods of time prior to the Distribution Date. On and after the Distribution Date, the SpinCo Group shall be responsible for all employer contributions under the SpinCo 401(k) Plans with respect to any SpinCo Employees.

Section 9.4      Stock Considerations. Following the Distribution Date, SpinCo Employees shall not be permitted to acquire shares of RemainCo Common Stock in any stock fund under a SpinCo 401(k) Plan.

Section 9.5      Limitation of Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, RemainCo shall have no responsibility for any failure of SpinCo to properly administer the SpinCo 401(k) Plans in accordance with their terms and applicable Law, including any failure to properly administer the accounts of SpinCo Employees and their respective beneficiaries, including accounts transferred in accordance with Section 9.2, in such SpinCo 401(k) Plan.

Section 9.6      Non-U.S. Defined Contribution Plans. The treatment of any RemainCo Benefit Plan that is a defined contribution plan for the benefit of employees outside of the United States and in which any SpinCo Employee participates (each, a “Non-U.S. DC Plan”) shall be governed by the applicable Local Agreement; provided that if a Local Agreement does not address the treatment of an applicable Non-U.S. DC Plan, then RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such Non-U.S. DC Plan to be treated in a manner that is consistent with applicable Law and, to the extent practicable, the general principles of this Article IX.

Article X

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

Section 10.1      SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans. Notwithstanding Section 2.4 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, following the Distribution Date, the RemainCo Group shall retain sponsorship of the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans and all Assets and Liabilities arising out of or relating to the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans; provided that except as required by applicable Law, on or prior to the Distribution Date, RemainCo shall assign, and SpinCo shall accept such assignment (or cause such assignment to be accepted), to a new nonqualified deferred compensation plan (or plans) sponsored by SpinCo with terms and conditions that are substantially similar to the corresponding RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (together, the “SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans”) all Liabilities under the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan relating to SpinCo Employees (but not Former SpinCo Employees) (such Liabilities, the “SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan Liabilities”). Unless the SpinCo Employee affirmatively elects otherwise, the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan will include the same beneficiary designations that were in effect immediately prior to the Distribution Date with respect to such SpinCo Employee under the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan. The Parties hereto agree that none of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, including this Agreement, will trigger a payment or distribution of compensation under the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans or the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans to any SpinCo Employee (and their respective beneficiaries) and, consequently, that the payment or distribution of any compensation to which any SpinCo Employee (and their respective beneficiaries) is entitled under the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans and the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans will occur upon the time or times provided for under the applicable RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans and the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans. Without limiting the generality of Section 4.1 and subject to Section 16.9, following the date of this Agreement, RemainCo and SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in administering the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans and the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans for purposes of satisfying any obligations relating to the participation of any SpinCo Employee, including by exchanging any necessary participant records and engaging recordkeepers, administrators, providers, insurers and other third parties. For the avoidance of doubt, each SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan shall be a SpinCo Benefit Plan.

Section 10.2      No Transfer of Assets. Except as required by applicable Law, nothing in this Agreement shall require any member of the RemainCo Group or the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans to transfer Assets or reserves with respect to the RemainCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans to any member of the SpinCo Group or the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans.

Section 10.3      Limitation of Liability. RemainCo shall have no responsibility for any failure of SpinCo to properly administer the SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans in accordance with their terms and applicable Law, including any failure to properly administer the accounts of SpinCo Employees and their respective beneficiaries in such SpinCo Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plans.

Article XI

VACATION

Section 11.1      Vacation. Effective as of the Distribution Date or such other date as agreed to between RemainCo and SpinCo which may be prior to the Distribution Date, all SpinCo Employees will participate in the SpinCo vacation policy and RemainCo will have no outstanding Liabilities for vacation accruals and benefits under any RemainCo vacation policy with respect to SpinCo Employees; provided, however, that to the extent any such SpinCo Employee is entitled under any applicable Law or any policy of his or her respective employer that is a member of the RemainCo Group, as the case may be, to be paid for any vacation days accrued or earned but not yet taken by such SpinCo Employee as of the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall assume and be solely responsible for the Liability to pay for such vacation days (the “SpinCo Vacation Liabilities”).

Article XII

Equity INCENTIVE COMPENSATION AWARDS

Section 12.1      SpinCo Equity Incentive Plan.

(a)            Prior to the Distribution Date, RemainCo shall cause SpinCo to adopt an equity incentive plan or program, to be effective immediately prior to the Distribution Date (the “SpinCo Equity Incentive Plan”) and RemainCo shall approve the SpinCo Equity Incentive Plan as the sole stockholder of SpinCo.

(b)            SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the SpinCo Equity Awards described in this Article XII, to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law.

Section 12.2      Equity Award Adjustments. Each outstanding equity award granted under the RemainCo Equity Plans held by any individual as of the Distribution Date shall be adjusted in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of RemainCo in connection with the Distribution. Equity awards that are covered by this Section 12.2 shall not be exercisable and/or settled during a period beginning on a date prior to the Distribution Date determined by RemainCo in its sole discretion, and continuing until the adjustments made pursuant to such resolutions are completed, as determined by RemainCo in its sole discretion. Equity awards that remain outstanding under the RemainCo Equity Plans shall remain subject to all terms and conditions of the RemainCo Equity Plans, including the adjustment provisions thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 12.2 shall not apply to any awards that are canceled or converted pursuant to Section 12.3.

Section 12.3      Treatment of Incentive Awards Upon Distribution.

(a)            RSUs. Prior to the Effective Time, each RSU that is unvested (in each case including RSUs received relating to previously paid dividends) shall be vested and shall be settled for RemainCo Common Stock as soon as practicable thereafter (and in any event prior to the Distribution Record Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the acceleration provided for in this Section 12.3(a) would result in the imposition of additional taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Parties shall cooperate to modify the provisions of this Section 12.3(a) as minimally required to comply with Section 409A.

(b)            SpinCo Employee PSUs. Effective as of the Effective Time, each SpinCo Employee PSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by SpinCo and converted into a Performance Stock Unit with the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such SpinCo Employee PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock subject to such SpinCo Employee PSU shall be equal to the product (rounded up to the nearest whole share) obtained by multiplying (x) the number of shares of RemainCo Common Stock subject to such SpinCo Employee PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time assuming target level of performance by (y) the SpinCo Conversion Ratio, and (ii) the performance metrics applicable to such SpinCo Employee PSU will be adjusted or replaced to measure SpinCo’s performance.
