If the Grantee has other outstanding vested awards that are conditioned on payment being deductible to the Company, the vested awards that do not have performance-based criteria shall be paid first and in the order they were first granted. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Grantee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, any payment under this Award Agreement shall be delayed until the earlier of (i) six months after the Grantee’s separation from service with the Company and (ii) the Grantee’s death, if such a delay is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional tax and interest on the Grantee under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.
