iv. | pro-rated annual incentive pay for the performance year of termination based on actual performance for such performance year in respect of applicable objective financial performance goals, if any (Operating AIP), established for the applicable year of termination (with no exercise of negative discretion), determined by multiplying (i) the amount of such annual incentive pay, if any, which would be due and payable in respect of the achievement of Operating AIP for the full performance year in which such termination occurred had such termination event not occurred, by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the beginning of the performance year through (and excluding) the date of termination, and the denominator of which is 365, which amount (if any) shall be paid in a lump sum in cash when such annual incentive pay for such performance year are paid to other eligible senior executives of the Company, which is not later than March 15th of the calendar year following the applicable performance year; |

The group health portion of Benefit Continuation Coverage will be in addition to and not in lieu of COBRA continuation coverage. The Company may modify its |
