As of December 31 of each calendar year, said Deferral Election is irrevocable for the following calendar year.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing and in the discretion of the Employer, in a year in which an Employee is first eligible to participate in this Plan, and provided that such Employee is not eligible to participate in any other arrangement, that, along with the Plan, is treated as a single plan under Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder, such Deferral Election shall be submitted within thirty (30) days after the date on which the
