5. TIME OF PAYMENT/SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE.

(a) Required Delay. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary concerning the time of payment of any severance benefit, if the Covered Executive is a “specified employee,” as defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i), as of his or her Qualifying Termination, then to the extent an amount payable under the Plan to such Covered Executive upon or as a result of his or her “separation from service” would be subject to the additional tax provided by Section 409A of the Code, such amount shall not be paid to the Covered Executive until the date that is six (6) months after the date of his or her Qualifying Termination (or, if earlier, his or her date of death). Such delayed payment shall be made in a lump sum on such delayed payment date and shall bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the date payment was otherwise to be made under Section 4 and the date the delayed amount is actually paid. Severance payments and benefits that are not subject to such Section 409A additional tax shall not be subject to this delay.

(b) Separate Payments. To the extent permitted under Section 409A and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder, each payment to a Covered Executive under the Plan shall be treated as a “separate payment.”

(d) Timing of Certain Payments. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary (i) if it is determined that the payment under Section 4.02 (b) is a “substitution” payment under Code Section 409A, such payment will be made in the same form and at the same time as the “substituted payment” would have been made and (ii) with respect to any payment that is conditioned on the Release becoming irrevocable, in the event the potential period for the Release’s irrevocable date straddles two calendar years, the earliest date on which such payment will be made is January 1st of the year following the Covered Executive’s termination.

(e) 409A Compliance. The Plan shall be construed to comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable, and, in this regard, a “termination of employment” shall mean, and must be, a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.
