With respect to Income Extension Aid under 4(b)(1)(iii) or to severance pay due to a plant closing termination which occurred within six months prior to the date of reemployment., an employee’s repayment amount will be prorated so that she/he will not be required to repay benefits covering the time when she/he was actually unemployed by the Company. Such repayments must be made within a reasonable time after rehire. No such repayment is required of benefits paid if the reemployment date is more than one year from the date of the prior termination.
