If a payment under the Plan in accordance with Section V becomes payable during the Consideration Period for a Release and if such Consideration period begins in one calendar year and extends into the subsequent calendar year, then any payment of benefits under the Plan will be delayed until the end of such Consideration Period or, if earlier, until after the start of the subsequent calendar year.”

In the event that a Release is required, such Release must be executed, and the Consideration Period must have expired within the time specified by the Committee or else any accelerated vesting or any other benefit contingent upon such Release shall be forfeited.

If a payment under the Plan in accordance with Section V becomes payable during the Consideration Period for a Release and if such Consideration Period begins in one calendar year and extends into the subsequent calendar year, then any payment of benefits under the Plan will be delayed until the end of such Consideration Period or, if earlier, until after the start of the subsequent calendar year.”
