6
which are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to the terms of the UOL Welfare Plans as in effect immediately prior to the Distribution Date (collectively, the "FTD Welfare Plans").
(b) Terms of Participation in FTD Welfare Plans. FTD shall cause the FTD Welfare Plans to (i) waive all preexisting conditions limitations, exclusions, and service conditions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to FTD Participants, other than limitations that were in effect with respect to FTD Participants as of the Distribution Date under the UOL Welfare Plans, and (ii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a FTD Participant following the Distribution Date to the extent such FTD Participant had satisfied any similar limitation under the analogous UOL Welfare Plan. FTD Participants shall initially be eligible for participation in and benefits under FTD retiree welfare plans on the same basis under which they were eligible for participation in and benefits under the United Online retiree welfare plans immediately before the Distribution.
(c) Reimbursement Account Plan. Prior to and effective as of the Distribution Date, one or more members of the FTD Entities shall establish flexible spending reimbursement accounts under a cafeteria plan qualifying under Section 125 of the Code (the "FTD Flexible Benefits Program") and each FTD Employee shall be eligible as of the Distribution Date to participate in the FTD Flexible Benefits Program pursuant to the terms of such plan. As of the Distribution Date, FTD shall cause the FTD Flexible Benefits Program to accept a transfer of the health care flexible spending reimbursement accounts of each FTD Employee who participates in the UOL Flexible Benefits Program immediately prior to the Distribution Date, and to honor and continue through October 31, 2013 the elections made by each FTD Employee under the UOL Flexible Benefits Program in respect of the health care flexible spending reimbursement accounts that are in effect immediately prior to the Distribution Date. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, United Online shall cause to be transferred from the UOL Flexible Benefits Program to the FTD Flexible Benefits Program the excess, if any, of the aggregate accumulated contributions to the health care flexible spending reimbursement accounts made by FTD Employees prior to the Distribution Date during 2013 over the aggregate reimbursement payouts paid to the FTD Employees for such year from such accounts.

From and after the Distribution Date, FTD shall assume and be solely responsible for all claims by FTD Employees under the FTD Flexible Benefits Program incurred at any time during 2013, whether incurred prior to, on or after the Distribution Date, that have not been paid in full as of the Distribution Date.

United Online shall administer compliance with any certificate of creditable coverage requirements of HIPAA or Medicare applicable to the UOL Welfare Plans with respect to FTD Participants. The Parties agree that neither the Distribution nor any transfers of employment that occur prior to or as of the Distribution Date in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a COBRA qualifying event for purposes of COBRA; provided that, in all events, FTD shall
7
assume, or shall cause the FTD Welfare Plans to retain or assume, responsibility for compliance with the health care continuation coverage requirements of COBRA with respect to all FTD Employees.

(ii) To the extent that a dividend equivalent relating to the Distribution is credited to the account of a holder of a United Online restricted stock unit, (A) the adjustments described in Section 6.2(a)(i) shall be made in a manner which does not result in double crediting; and (B) the ultimate payout of such dividend equivalent shall be made in the form of shares of UOL Common Stock with a value equal to the shares of FTD Common Stock which would otherwise have been released.
