Vendor Contracts (a) ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, and Letters of Understanding (1) Before the Distribution Date, Acuity shall, in its sole discretion, take such steps as are necessary under each ASO Contract, Group Insurance Policy, HMO Agreement, letter of understanding, and arrangement in existence as of the date of this Agreement to permit SpinCo to participate in the terms and conditions of such ASO Contract, Group Insurance Policy, HMO Agreement, letter of understanding, or arrangement from Immediately after the Distribution Date through August 31, 2008. The methodology used to allocate costs between SpinCo and Acuity under such policies and arrangements prior to the Distribution Date shall remain the same after the Distribution Date. The participation by SpinCo in such policy or arrangement shall relate to the SpinCo Health and Welfare Plan and SpinCo shall have all fiduciary responsibilities under ERISA with respect to the participation by the SpinCo Health and Welfare Plan in such policies or arrangements. Alternatively, with respect to any of such policies or arrangements, Acuity may take such steps as are necessary to arrange for an ASO Contract, Group Insurance Policy, HMO Agreement, letter of understanding, or arrangement EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AGREEMENT covering SpinCo that mirrors substantively that covering Acuity. This mirror arrangement shall apply for all or a portion of such period, as necessary under the circumstances. Acuity, in its sole discretion, may cause one or more of its ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, letters of understanding, and arrangements into which Acuity enters after the date of this Agreement to allow SpinCo to participate in the terms and conditions thereof. Nothing contained in this Section 5.2(a) shall preclude Acuity from choosing to enter into ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, letters of understanding, or other arrangements with new or different vendors; provided, until August 31, 2008, Acuity shall give SpinCo advance notice of any decision to change or add vendors. Furthermore, nothing contained in this paragraph (1) shall require Acuity to use more than its reasonable best efforts in complying with the provisions of the first four sentences of this paragraph (1). (2) Acuity shall have the right to determine, and shall promptly notify SpinCo of, the manner in which SpinCo’s participation in the terms and conditions of ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, letters of understanding and arrangements as set forth above shall be effectuated; provided, however, Acuity shall use its best efforts to accommodate any reasonable needs communicated to Acuity by SpinCo that relate thereto. Such terms and conditions shall include the financial and termination provisions, performance standards, methodologies, auditing policies, quality measures, reporting requirements, and target claims. SpinCo hereby authorizes Acuity to act on its behalf to extend to SpinCo the terms and conditions of the ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, and letters of understanding and arrangements. SpinCo shall fully cooperate with Acuity in such efforts, and, for periods through August 31, 2008, SpinCo shall not perform any act or fail to take any action that would prejudice Acuity’s efforts and financial arrangements under the Health and Welfare Plans (other than taking reasonable steps to enter into replacement ASO Contracts, Group Insurance Policies, HMO Agreements, and letters of understanding and arrangements for periods after August 31, 2008).
