Application of Code to Agreement. This Agreement has been entered into pursuant to the provisions of the Code. Any additional remedies available to Agent and Lenders under the applicable provisions of the Code not specifically included herein shall be deemed a part of this Agreement, and Agent and Lenders shall have the benefit of any such additional remedies.

The Company shall report all payments and other benefits paid or provided pursuant to Section 2 3 of this Agreement to the extent required by, and in accordance with, [Section 409A] (“[Section 409A]”) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In the event that the Company or the Executive reasonably and in good faith determines that any payment to be made or benefit to be provided to the Executive hereunder would result in the application of [Section 409A], the Company shall, in consultation with the Executive, modify the Agreement to the extent possible and in the least restrictive manner reasonably available in order to exclude such compensation from the definition of “deferred compensation” within the meaning of such [Section 409A] or in order to comply with the provisions of Section 409A and/or any rules, regulations or other regulatory guidance issued under such statutory provision and without any diminution in the value of the payments to the Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance shall the Company be responsible for any taxes, penalties, interest or other losses or expenses incurred by the Executive due to any failure to comply with Section 409A, or for any interest on account of any delay in payment deemed necessary to comply with Section 409A. To the extent any reimbursements or in- kind benefits due to the Executive constitute "deferred compensation" under Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to you in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. [Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv)])].

Application of Code Section 162(m). If the Company reasonably anticipates that any portion of the benefit payable under the Plan to any Participant could be nondeductible under Code section 162(m) (or cause other amounts payable by the Company to be nondeductible under Code section 162(m)), then the payment of such portion of the benefit to such Participant shall be delayed until the earliest date on which the Company reasonably anticipates that the deduction will not be limited or eliminated by application of Code section 162(m), provided that where any scheduled payment to the Participant in the Company’s taxable year is delayed in accordance with this paragraph, the delay in payment will be treated as a subsequent deferral election unless all scheduled payments to that Participant that could be delayed in accordance with this paragraph are also delayed. Where the payment is delayed to a date on or after the Participant’s Termination of Employment, payment will be made during the period ending on the later of the last day of the Company’s taxable year in which the Termination of Employment occurs or the 15th day of the third month following the Termination of Employment; provided that no payment shall be made before the date that is six months following the Participant’s Termination of Employment. For purposes of this Plan, all Participants shall be considered specified employees within the meaning of Treas. Reg. section 1.409A-1(i))].
