5
SECTION 5. DEFERRED
ACCOUNT
5.1
Deferred Account
. The Company shall establish
a deferred account (an “Account”) for each current
Non-Employee Director whose benefit under the Retirement Plan is
converted pursuant to subsection 5.2 below and for any other
Non-Employee Director who makes an election to defer Cash Payments
in accordance with Section 8 hereof. The Account may be
further sub-divided by the Company in order to reflect Account
amounts that are exempt from Code Section 409A and Account
amounts that are subject to Code Section 409A.
Distributions equal to the balance credited to the Non-Employee
Director’s Account shall be made in cash in accordance with
Sections 6 or 9 hereof. The balance of the Account is
dependent on the value per share of the mutual fund shares or other
securities underlying the Deferred Mutual Fund Units on the date of
distribution, and is therefore subject to market fluctuations in
value until such distribution.
5.2
Conversion of Retirement Plan
Benefit . On the
Retirement Plan Conversion Date, the accrued benefit of each
current Non-Employee Director under the Retirement Plan shall be
converted into Deferred Mutual Fund Units in an amount equal to
115% of the present value of such Non-Employee Director’s
accrued benefit under the Retirement Plan, valued as of
January 1, 1997. Prior to the Retirement Plan Conversion
Date, each Non-Employee Director shall make an election with
respect to the conversion of such Non-Employee Director’s
vested benefit among the respective Deferred Mutual Fund
Units. Such conversion shall be effective as of the
Retirement Plan Conversion Date and will take place based on the
value of the mutual fund shares or other securities underlying such
Deferred Mutual Fund Units on such date.
5.3
Investment of Account
. A Non-Employee Director may
elect to change the mix of the Deferred Mutual Fund Units credited
to the Non-Employee Director’s Account in accordance with the
administrative procedures and rules set by the Board or
Company from time to time. Such conversion shall be effective
as of the applicable date determined according to such procedures
and will take place based on the value of the mutual fund shares or
other securities underlying the Deferred Mutual Fund Units on such
date.
5.4
Dividends . At any time a balance of Deferred Mutual
Fund Units is maintained in an Account, there shall be credited to
the Account additional Deferred Mutual Fund Units on each Dividend
Date. Such additional number of Deferred Mutual Fund Units
shall be determined by reference to the number of mutual fund
shares or other securities that would be issued by the mutual fund
or the issuer of the other securities with respect to the
reinvestment of such dividend. In the absence of such
reinvestment, the number of such additional Deferred Mutual Fund
Units shall be determined by (i) multiplying the total number
of Deferred Mutual Fund Units (including fractional Deferred Mutual
Fund Units) credited to the Account immediately prior to the
Dividend Date by the amount of the dividend per share of the
underlying mutual fund or other security and (ii) dividing the
product by the Fair Market Value per share as of such
Dividend
6
Date. Additional Deferred
Mutual Fund Units shall be similarly credited on each Dividend Date
on which a balance of Deferred Mutual Fund Units is maintained in
the Account.
5.5
Nontransferability
. No Deferred Mutual Fund
Units shall be pledged, hypothecated or transferred by a
Non-Employee Director other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. No interest of any person or entity in, or
right to receive a benefit under, the Plan shall be subject in any
manner to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, attachment,
garnishment, or other alienation or encumbrance of any kind; nor
may such interest or right to receive a benefit be taken, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, for the satisfaction of the debts of,
or other obligations or claims against, such person or entity,
including claims for alimony, support, separate maintenance and
claims in bankruptcy proceedings.
7
SECTION 6. DISTRIBUTION OF
ACCOUNT
6.1
Cessation of Directorship;
Attainment of Age 70 . Upon the first to occur of the date a
Non-Employee Director attains age 70 or the date the Non-Employee
Director ceases to be a director of the Company for any reason
other than death, the balance of such Non-Employee Director’s
Account that is exempt from Code Section 409A shall be paid in
a lump sum to the Non-Employee Director within ninety (90) days
after such date, but in no event later than the December 31st
of the calendar year in which such date occurs. Upon the
first to occur of the date a Non-Employee Director attains age 70
or the date the Non-Employee Director ceases to be a director of
the Company for any reason other than death, the balance of such
Non-Employee Director’s Account that is subject to Code
Section 409A shall be paid in a lump sum to the Non-Employee
Director on or as soon as administratively possible after such
date, but no later than sixty (60) days after such date.
6.2
Death . In the event of the death of a
Non-Employee Director while a director of the Company, the entire
value of the Deferred Mutual Fund Units credited to his or her
Account, within sixty (60) days of the date of the Non-Employee
Director’s death, shall be paid in cash in a lump sum to such
surviving beneficiary or beneficiaries as such Non-Employee
Director may have designated by notice in writing to the Company or

representative of such Non-Employee Director’s
estate.
