The Company is continuing to provide its furloughed employees with wages and salary, as applicable, until the effective date of the respective furlough period, as well as certain incentive compensation. Employees subject to the furlough program will also continue to receive their currently-enrolled health and other benefits in accordance with the terms of the respective plans.
