To the extent that such benefits are available under the above-referenced benefit plans and you had such coverage immediately prior to termination of employment, such continuation of benefits for you shall also cover your dependents for so long as you are receiving benefits under this Section 5. The COBRA Continuation Period for medical and dental insurance under this Section 5(i) shall be deemed to run concurrent with the continuation period federally mandated by COBRA (generally 18 months), or any other legally mandated and applicable federal, state, or local coverage period for benefits provided to terminated employees under the health care plan. For purposes of this Agreement, # “COBRA” means the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, and # “COBRA Continuation Period” shall mean the continuation period for medical and dental insurance to be provided under the terms of this Agreement which shall commence on the first day of the calendar month following the month in which the date of your termination falls and generally shall continue for an 18 month period.
