eight hundredths percent (7.78%) per annum (hereinafter referred to as the “Default Rate”), which Default Rate shall be effective as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default.

The severance pay will be provided in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll process for a twenty-four month period, commencing with the first payroll that is more than thirty (30) days after the Separation Date (see paragraph 1), provided that the Agreement has then become effective (see paragraph 17).

Severance Pay. Whether any Severance Pay is payable under this Plan, or any increase or decrease in the amount of Severance Pay, shall be in the sole discretion of the Committee and as authorized pursuant to [subsection 5.7] below. Any such increase or decrease in the amount of Severance Pay shall be final and conclusive as to all Eligible Employees and other persons claiming rights under the Plan. Subject to the exercise of such discretion, a Participant’s Severance Pay shall be determined as follows:

Severance Pay. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, Severance Pay shall be reduced by the amount of any other severance payments, whether under any severance plan or offer letter or other individual agreement, made by an Employer.

Best Pay. Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if any payment or benefit Executive would receive from the Company pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (“Payment”) would # constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and # but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment will be equal to the Reduced Amount (as defined below). The “Reduced Amount” will be either # the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment (after reduction) being subject to the Excise Tax or # the entire Payment, whichever amount after taking into account all applicable federal, state, and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from a deduction of such state and local taxes), results in Executive’ s receipt, on an after- tax basis, of the greater economic benefit notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in a Payment is required pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Reduced Amount is determined pursuant to clause (A) of the preceding sentence, the reduction shall occur in the manner (the “Reduction Method”) that results in the greatest economic benefit for Executive. If more than one method of reduction will result in the same economic benefit, the items so reduced will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Reduction Method or the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payment being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A (as defined below) that would not otherwise be subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A, then the Reduction Method and/or the Pro Rata Reduction Method, as the case may be, shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A as follows: # as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for Executive as determined on an after-tax basis; # as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without cause), shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and # as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of [Section 409A] shall be reduced (or eliminated) before Payments that are not deferred compensation within the meaning of [Section 409A].

Regular Pay. 415 Compensation shall include regular pay after severance from employment if # the payment is for regular compensation for services during the Participant’s regular working hours, or compensation for services outside of the Participant’s regular working hours (such as overtime or shift differential), commissions, bonuses, or other similar payments, and # the payment would have been paid to the Participant prior to severance from employment if the Participant had continued in employment with the Employer.
