A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment
of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment that are considered &ldquo;nonqualified deferred compensation&rdquo;
under Code Section 409A unless such termination is also a &ldquo;separation from service&rdquo; within the meaning of Code Section 409A
and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a &ldquo;termination,&rdquo; &ldquo;termination of employment&rdquo;
or like terms shall mean &ldquo;separation from service.&rdquo; If the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a &ldquo;specified
employee&rdquo; within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment that is considered non-qualified
deferred compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a &ldquo;separation from service,&rdquo; such payment or benefit shall
be made or provided at the date which is the earlier of (A) the expiration of the six month period measured from the date of such &ldquo;separation
from service&rdquo; of the Executive, and (B) thirty (30) days from the date of the Executive&rsquo;s death.</P>

With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by
Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit,

eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year, provided that this foregoing clause (ii) shall
not be violated without regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code Section 105(b) solely because
such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before
the last day of the Executive&rsquo;s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred.</P>

For purposes of Code Section 409A, the Executive&rsquo;s right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be

within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.</P>
