constitutes a controlled group of corporations, or group of trades
or businesses under common control, within the meaning of Code
Sections 414(b) or (c); provided that for purposes of determining
when the Executive has incurred a Separation from Service, the

Rate” means the product of (i) one (1.0) minus the
