Tenant shall pay all costs and expenses for such removal and restoration within fifteen (15) business days following delivery of an invoice therefor accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation.

Removal of Alterations If Tenant fails to remove by the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease all of its personal property, or any Alterations identified by Landlord for removal, Landlord may, at its option, treat such failure as a hold-over pursuant to Subparagraph 11(b) above, and/or Landlord may (without liability to Tenant for loss thereof) treat such personal property and/or Alterations as abandoned and, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, and in addition to Landlord's other rights and remedies under this Lease, at law or in equity: (a) remove and store such items; and/or (b) upon ten (10) days prior notice to Tenant, sell, discard or otherwise dispose of all or any such items at private or public sale for such price as Landlord may obtain or by other commercially reasonable means.

Application of Code Section 409A 8.1 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the receipt of any benefits under this Agreement as a result of a termination of employment will be subject to satisfaction of the condition precedent that you undergo a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h) or any successor thereto. In addition, if you are deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provisions of any benefit that is required to be delayed pursuant to Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit will not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6) month period measured from the date of your “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)), or (ii) the date of your death (the “Delay Period”). Within 10 days following the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) will be paid or reimbursed to you in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement will be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. To the extent that the foregoing applies to the provision of any ongoing welfare benefits to you that would not be required to be delayed if the premiums therefore were paid by you, you will pay the full costs of premiums for such welfare benefits during the Delay Period and the Corporation or the Bank will pay you an amount equal to the amount of such premiums paid by you during the Delay Period within 10 days after the conclusion of such Delay Period. 8.2 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense reimbursement or other in-kind benefit is determined to be subject to Code Section 409A, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits in one calendar year will not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits in any other taxable year (except under any lifetime limit applicable to expenses for medical care), in no event will any expenses be reimbursed or in-kind benefits be provided after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you incurred such expenses or received such benefits, and in no event will any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 8.3 Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.1, to the extent of payments made from the date of termination through March 15th of the calendar year following such date, are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) and thus payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4); to the extent such payments are made following said March 15th, they are intended to constitute separate payments for purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-2(b)(2) made upon an involuntary termination from service and payable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), to the maximum extent permitted by said provision. 8.4 To the extent it is determined that any benefits described in Section 2.1(b) are taxable to you, they are intended to be payable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(v), to the maximum extent permitted by said provision.
