the Grantee's death, if at the time of such separation from service the Grantee
is a "specified employee," as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code,
such distribution shall not be made until at least six months after the date of
such separation from service; provided, further, that if the Grantee's
employment is terminated due to Disability and such Disability satisfies the

attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Grantee otherwise
than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported
assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall
be void and unenforceable against the Company and any Affiliate; provided that
the designation by the Grantee of a beneficiary shall not constitute an
assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
