The Parties anticipate that after the Separation Date no further services will be performed for Employer by Employee but agree that certain matters in which the Employee has been involved during the Employee’s employment may need the Employee’s cooperation with the Employer in the future. Accordingly, for a period of twelve (12) months after the Separation Date, to the extent reasonably requested by the Employer, the Employee shall cooperate with the Employer in connection with matters arising out of the Employee’s service to the Employer; provided that the Employer shall make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption of the Employee’s other activities. The Employer shall reimburse the Employee for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with this cooperation and the Employer shall compensate the Employee at an hourly rate of $275 per hour. In no event will the level of bona fide services performed under this section be more than 20% of the average level of services performed by Employee for Employer in the prior 36-month period.
