Total Disability a) Total disability, as used in this Plan, means the complete inability because of an accident or sickness of a covered employee to perform all the duties of his/her own occupation for the first two (2) years of disability. Thereafter, employees able by reason of education, training or experience to perform the duties of a gainful occupation for which the rate of pay is not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the current rate of pay of their regular occupation at date of disability will not be considered totally disabled and will therefore not be eligible for benefits under this Long Term Disability Plan.
b) Total disabilities resulting from mental or nervous disorders are covered by the Plan in the same manner as total disabilities resulting from accidents or other sicknesses, except that an employee who is totally disabled as a result of a mental or nervous disorder and who has received twenty-four (24) months of Long Term Disability Plan benefit payments must be confined to a hospital or mental institution or where they are at home, under the direct care and supervision of a medical doctor, in order to continue to be eligible for benefit payment. During a period of total disability an employee must be under the regular and personal care of a legally qualified doctor of medicine.
c) i) If an employee becomes totally disabled and during this period of total disability engages in rehabilitative employment, the regular monthly benefit from this plan will be reduced by twenty-five percent (25%) of the employee's earnings from such rehabilitative employment. In the event that income from rehabilitative employment and the benefit paid under this Plan exceeds eighty-five percent (85%) of the employee's earnings at date of disability, the benefit from this Plan will be further reduced by the excess amount.
Definition of Total Disability Total disability means that the employee is unable, because of sickness or accident, to perform the duties of their regular occupation. This definition applies for the first twenty-four (24) months of payments. After this time, the inability to perform an occupation for which the employee is reasonably fitted by training, education or experience will constitute total disability. It is not required that an employee be confined to home, but they must be under the regular care of a physician.
Termination by Disability In the event the employment of the Optionee is terminated by reason of Disability, the Option shall become immediately and fully exercisable as of the date the Committee determines the Optionee terminated for Disability and shall remain exercisable at any time prior to the end of the Exercise Term, or for one (1) year after the date of termination, whichever period is shorter.

(ii) Any unpaid bonus earned with respect to any fiscal year ending on or preceding the date of termination, payable when bonuses are paid generally to senior executives for such year;
(iii) A pro-rated annual bonus for the fiscal year in which such termination occurs, the amount of which shall be based on actual performance under the applicable bonus plan (for this purpose determined at fiscal year end, by treating Company financial performance goals for such fiscal year as the only performance goals applicable to Executive and without any exercise of negative discretion by the Committee) and the fraction the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed during the performance year through the date of termination and the denominator of which is 365, which pro-rated bonus shall be paid when bonuses are paid generally to senior executives for such year (“Pro-Rated Bonus”);
(iv) Any disability insurance benefits, or life insurance proceeds, as the case may be, as may be provided under the Company plans in which Executive participates immediately prior to such termination; and
(vii) All of Executive’s other unvested long-term incentive awards granted to Executive through the date of termination, shall vest or be forfeited, and any such vested awards granted as stock options shall be exercisable, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in such awards.
By Disability If Executive becomes eligible for the Company’s long term disability benefits or if, in the sole opinion of the Company, Executive is unable to carry out the responsibilities and functions of the position held by Executive by reason of any physical or mental impairment for more than ninety consecutive days or more than one hundred and twenty days in any twelve-month period, then, to the extent permitted by law, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment.
