Third-Party ASO Contracts. (i) Crane shall use its reasonable efforts to amend each administrative services only contract with a third-party administrator that relates to any of the Crane Health and Welfare Plans (an "ASO Contract") in existence as of the date of this Agreement to permit Huttig to participate in the terms and conditions of such ASO Contract from Immediately After the Distribution Date until the expiration of the financial fee guarantees in effect under such ASO Contract as of the Close of the Distribution Date. Crane shall use its reasonable efforts to cause all ASO Contracts into which Crane enters after the date of this Agreement but before the Close of the Distribution Date to allow Huttig to participate in the terms and conditions thereof effective Immediately After the Distribution Date on the same basis as Crane. (ii) Crane shall have the right to determine, and shall promptly notify Huttig of, the manner in which Huttig's participation in the terms and conditions of ASO Contracts as set forth above shall be effectuated. The permissible ways in which Huttig's participation may be effectuated include automatically making Huttig a party to the ASO Contracts or obligating the third party to enter into a separate ASO Contract with Huttig providing for the same terms and conditions as are contained in the ASO Contracts to which Crane is a party. Such terms and conditions shall include the financial and termination provisions, performance standards, methodology, auditing policies, quality measures, reporting requirements and target claims. Huttig hereby authorizes Crane to act on its behalf to extend to Huttig the terms and conditions of the ASO Contracts. Huttig shall fully cooperate with Crane in such efforts, and Huttig shall not perform any act, including discussing any alternative arrangements with any third party, that would prejudice Crane's efforts.
