described in Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) for the Plan Year in which the Deferral Date occurs, such Participant’s Account may be distributed in a lump sum, but only if payment results in the termination and liquidation of the

From Service, regardless of whether such participant also is a “Highest Paid Employee” (as those terms are defined in the Post-2004 Employee Plan); and 

WHEREAS, the Board desires to amend Section 2.1 of the Plan to require that, if a participant elects a fixed date as
the participant’s “Deferral Date”, such date must be at least two years after the end of the “Plan Year” (as those terms are defined in the Post-2004 Employee Plan) with respect to which the amount deferred would otherwise

Year beginning after September 1, 2011) after the end of the Bonus Period or pay period with respect to which the payment would otherwise be made; (b) the date of the Participant’s death; or (c) in the event of a Separation From
Service, the Participant’s Separation From Service. If no Deferral Date is 

 
selected by the Participant, the Participant shall be deemed to have selected a Deferral Date which is the Participant’s Separation From Service. 

 

	 3.
	 Section 7.1(a) of the Post-2004 Employee Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted therefor:

 (a) Time of Distribution. Distribution of that portion of a

Deferral Date. 
  

	 4.
	 Section 7.5 of the Post-2004 Employee Plan is hereby deleted in its entirety and the following is substituted therefor:

 Notwithstanding any provision in this Article VII to the contrary, if the
