Such repayment must occur before the earlier of (i) the date on which he or she would have incurred a Period of Severance of five years commencing after the distribution or (ii) five years after the first date on which the Participant is subsequently reemployed. If the Participant makes a repayment, the Account Balance of his or her relevant Employer Account shall be restored to its value as of the date of distribution. The restored amount shall be derived from forfeitures during the Plan Year and, if such forfeitures are not sufficient, from a contribution by the Employer made as of that date (determined without reference to Net Profits). If an Employee who had a Nonvested Separation and was deemed to receive a distribution resumes Employment before a Period of Severance of five years, his or her Employer Account will be restored, upon reemployment, to the amount on the date of such deemed distribution.
