Upon the date which is six months following the date of Executive’s separation from service, all previously accrued monthly amounts shall be payable in a lump sum and future amountswill continue to be paid pursuant to the remaining term of the 18-month payment cycle. The above-referenced six month delay in payment shall only apply to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, such that such delay shall not apply topayments made in connection with an involuntary termination of employment provided such payments fall within the dollar threshold described in Treas.
