substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable
physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in

income taxes imposed with respect to Participant’s acquisition of a
particular share of Common Stock issued for a Restricted Stock Unit,
as well as a cash lump-sum in an amount sufficient to reimburse
Participant for the tax obligation on such amounts so that
Participant is paid an amount as a tax assistance payment by the
Company sufficient to fund all of his income taxes on both the share
of Common Stock and the tax assistance payment.”
