(z) unreimbursed business expenses, including those set forth in paragraph 5 of this Agreement, incurred through the termination of employment date, in accordance with the Company’s business expense reimbursement policy.

(e) To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with this intent. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary, any payment that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code required to be made to Xxxxx hereunder upon his termination of employment (including any payment pursuant to this paragraph 7) shall, if Xxxxx is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code at the time of such termination, be made promptly on the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of Xxxxx’x date of termination of employment, and (ii) his death, in each case to the extent necessary to avoid imposition on Xxxxx of any tax penalty imposed under Section 409A of the Code. Amounts payable under this Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “deferral of compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent provided in the exceptions in Treasury Regulations §§1.409A-1(b)(4) (“short-term deferrals”) and (b)(9) (“separation pay plans,” including the exception under subparagraph (iii)), other applicable provisions of Treasury Regulations §1.409A-1 through A-6, and any other applicable exceptions as may be in effect from time to time under Section 409A of the Code. Solely for purposes of determining the time and form of payments due Xxxxx under this Agreement (including any payments due under paragraph 7 of this Agreement or otherwise in connection with his termination of employment with the Company), Xxxxx shall not be deemed to have incurred a termination of employment unless and until he shall incur a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that the Company and Xxxxx determine that any provision of this Agreement could reasonably be expected to result in Xxxxx’x being subject to the payment of interest or additional tax under Section 409A, the Company and Xxxxx agree, to the extent reasonably possible as determined in good faith, to amend this Agreement, retroactively, if necessary, in order to avoid the imposition of any such interest or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code in a manner that preserves Xxxxx’x economic interests prior to such imposition. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under the Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are subject to Section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirements that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Xxxxx’x lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to set off or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

(iii) a lump sum payment of six months’ Base Salary, and

All of Xxxxx’x Company stock options, restricted stock, and other outstanding equity based awards that are unvested upon Xxxxx’x employment termination by reason of death, and all unvested awards shall be forfeited.

(i) the Accrued Obligations pursuant to paragraph 7(d)(ii) of this Agreement,

(iv) COBRA coverage, at Company expense, for twelve months.

Any prorated Annual Bonus shall be paid at such time as the bonus would have been paid hereunder had Xxxxx’x employment continued through the Annual Bonus payment date.
