In this regard, if any amount under a US Code Section&#160;409A Award is payable upon a Termination of Employment to a US Taxpayer who is considered a Specified Employee, then no such payment shall be made prior to the date that is the earlier of (i) six months and one day after the Participant&#8217;s date of Separation From Service, or (ii) the Participant&#8217;s death, but only to the extent such delay is necessary to prevent such payment from being subject to interest, penalties and/or additional tax imposed pursuant to US Code Section&#160;409A. For avoidance of doubt, any payments delayed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be paid in a lump sum on the first regular payroll date following the expiration of the delay period, and any remaining payments shall be made thereafter on their originally scheduled payment dates.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;font-weight:bold;">4.3</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;font-weight:bold;">Priority</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">.
