MP Financial Agreement

the Company for any Health Benefits paid by the Company pursuant to this obligation.

 

 

 

 

 

(d)

 

Claims Account . The Company and the Employer shall establish and maintain those banking arrangements, including the Claims Account, described in Exhibit C to the Agreement. In addition to its obligations under Exhibit C , the Employer shall fund the Claims Account as necessary to enable the Company to pay in a timely manner from the Claims Account the Health Benefits described in section 2(a).

 

(i)

 

If the Employer does not maintain the banking arrangements required in this section or in Exhibit C , including any required balance, the Company will provide notice to the Employer so that it can take corrective action, and the Company may terminate the Agreement in accordance with section 4 of the Agreement.

After a reasonable period of time as determined by the Company, the Company shall place stop payment instructions on Checks issued pursuant to the Agreement that are not Paid. The Company shall be responsible for complying with applicable abandoned property laws, if any, with respect to any Checks that are not Paid prior to the termination of the Agreement. Any amount transferred to a state in compliance with such laws shall be treated as Paid on the date that the transfer is made.

 

 

 

 

 

(iii)

 

Upon termination of the Agreement, the Claims Account shall be closed as soon as reasonably practicable after the Company determines that all Health Benefits required to be Paid from the Claims Account have been Paid, and any funds remaining in the Claims Account shall be recovered by the Employer, subject to the Company’s right to offset such funds against amounts owed to it under the Minimum Premium Arrangement.

      3. Premium

Such invoice shall be sent by the Company no later than *** months following the close of the Policy Year which includes the Arrangement Quarter to which such invoice relates. An Additional Quarterly Premium shall not be due with respect to any Arrangement Quarter in a Policy Year if a written invoice for such Additional Quarterly Premium is not sent by the Company to the Employer within *** of the close of the Policy Year; provided that the Company shall not have been prevented by the Employer from exercising its right to audit the Employer as provided in section 5(c) of the MP Administrative Services Agreement.

apply the pooling adjustment described in Section 7 of Exhibit A to this Agreement with respect to such Arrangement Year.

For Arrangement Years after 2007, Company may, in its sole discretion, determine whether or upon what terms to offer the pooling option. Any Pooling Charge paid by the Employer shall not be treated as Policy Revenue.

MP Financial Agreement

 

11

 


 

 

 

 

Arrangement Month if the Employer pays (a) an amount equal to *** of the total MP Premium for the previous Arrangement Month on or before the *** calendar day of the applicable Arrangement Month; and (b) the remaining balance of the MP Premium for the Arrangement Month on or before the *** calendar day of such Arrangement Month.

The Company may elect to terminate the Agreement upon written notice to the Employer immediately upon the closing of a sale to a single buyer (“Buyer”) of more than 50% of voting equity securities of the Employer or of the ultimate publicly traded corporation of the Employer or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Employer if:

 

(A)

 

the Buyer is (I) CIGNA, AETNA, PacificCare, Anthem, Coventry, First Health, HealthNet, Humana, Oxford, Wellpoint, or any other Blue Cross or Blue Shield plan, (II) any affiliate (as defined in clause E below) of or successor of an entity identified in (I), or (III) any other entity that has, at the time of the sale, a competitive position relative to the Company as a health insurer substantially similar to that of any of the entities named in clause (I) above as of the date the Agreement is executed;

 

 

 

 

 

(B)

 

the debt rating on Buyer’s public debt, if any, is below Investment Grade as of the day preceding the closing of the sale;

 

 

 

 

 

(C)

 

the ultimate parent of the Buyer, if any, has not, at the time of the closing of the sale, executed a guaranty of the Employer’s obligations under the Agreement substantially in the same form as section 7 of the Agreement;

 

 

 

 

 

(D)

 

the amount deposited in the Security Deposit as of the date of closing of the sale is less than the amount then required under the Security Deposit Agreement; or

MP Financial Agreement

 

12

 


 

 

 

 

entity to which it is an affiliate. “Control” for this purpose refers to the ownership of more than 50% of the voting power of an entity.

 

ix.

 

Except as provided in paragraph (B) below, the Employer may terminate this Agreement by giving the Company notice thereof not more than *** business days following receipt from the Company of notice of an *** of more than *** percentage points in the percentage of the *** used to calculate the MP Premium. (For example, if the percentage of the *** used to calculate the MP Premium equals ***, the Company may *** such percentage by *** percentage points to *** without triggering the Employer’s termination right under this clause ix.)

 

 

(A)

 

Any such termination shall be effective on the date set forth in the Employer’s notice to the Company, but in any event not sooner than the date the applicable *** would otherwise be effective.

 

 

 

 

 

(B)

 

The Employer shall not have the right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to this section 4(b)(ix) if the increase in the percentage of the Quoted Premium used to calculate the MP Premium is pursuant to section 4(c) or due to the imposition of any premium tax not included in the Quoted Premium at the time that the imposition was effected.

 

(c)

 

The Policies shall terminate upon termination of the Agreement. If one or more of the Policies may not, by its terms, be terminated as of the date that the Agreement would otherwise terminate, the Agreement shall be terminated notwithstanding the inability to terminate a Policy as of the same date, and the terms of the Policy shall remain in force, unmodified by the Agreement, until such Policy can be terminated. However, effective as of the date of the termination of the Agreement, the monthly premium due under each such Policy and Non-MP Policy shall automatically be increased (“Increased Premium”) such that the sum of (i) the aggregate Increased Premiums due under such Policies and Non-MP Policies through their termination dates and (ii) the Accumulated Surplus as of the Initial Termination Review equals *** of the aggregate monthly premiums that would be

 

 

 

 

MP Financial Agreement

 

13

 


 

 

 

 

payable under such policies through their termination dates in the absence of an increase.

 

 

 

 

 

(d)

 

In the event of termination of the Agreement, the Employer shall pay an Additional Quarterly Premium attributable to the Arrangement Quarter in which the Agreement terminates but only for the portion of the Arrangement Quarter during which the Agreement was in effect. Such Additional Quarterly Premium generally shall be determined and due in the manner set forth in section 3(b) of the Agreement; provided however, that the Additional Quarterly Premium attributable to any partial Arrangement Month shall be calculated based on the proration formula set forth in section 4(e) below.

 

 

 

 

 

(e)

 

If the Agreement is terminated other than at the end of an Arrangement Month, unless the Quoted Premium is itself prorated under the terms of the Policy, the Maximum Monthly Employer Benefit Obligation and the MP Premium for the month in which termination occurs shall be prorated based upon the ratio of the number of calendar days in the Arrangement Month before termination to the total number of calendar days in the Arrangement Month.

 

 

 

 

 

(f)

 

If the Agreement is terminated retroactively and any Policy remains in effect after such retroactive termination date, amounts due and paid by the parties under the Agreement after the effective date of termination shall be credited against their respective obligations under the Policy after such date.

 

 

 

 

 

(g)

 

If the Agreement is terminated, the MP Premium and the Maximum Monthly Employer Benefit Obligation for the last Arrangement Month prior to the termination date shall be adjusted as authorized in Exhibit E of the MP Administrative Services Agreement to include the effect of any additions, terminations or changes in coverage not reflected at the time of termination in respect of Arrangement Months prior to termination.

 

 

 

 

 

(h)

 

In the event that either party reasonably believes that any state or other jurisdiction may impose a penalty on it for proceeding with its performance under the Agreement, such party will promptly advise the other party of such belief and the basis therefor. In such event, the parties agree to cooperate in good faith to resolve such matter to the satisfaction of both parties.

 

 

 

MP Financial Agreement

 

14

 


 

 

 

 

After a good faith effort by the parties to eliminate the risk of a material penalty being imposed, if the matter is not resolved to the satisfaction of both parties, the party upon which such penalty may be imposed may immediately discontinue the Agreement’s application in such state or jurisdiction by providing notice to that effect to the other party. In that event, the Agreement will continue to apply in all other states or jurisdictions.

      5. Changes in Maximum Monthly Employer Benefit Obligation and Premium.

 

(a)

 

The Company may change the percentage of the *** used to calculate the Maximum Monthly Employer Benefit Obligation described in section 1(m) of the Agreement and/or the MP Premium described in section 3(a) of the Agreement effective on any January 1 st after the Effective Date, provided that the Company provides *** calendar days notice of the change.

MP Financial Agreement

 

15
