[Section 409A]. This PSU award is intended to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the guidance issued thereunder (“[Section 409A]”) and shall be interpreted and construed consistently therewith. In no event shall either the Participant or the Company have the right to accelerate or defer delivery of the Shares to a date or event other than as set forth herein except to the extent specifically permitted or required by [Section 409A].
