Plan
Interpretation. Any revisions to the Plan must be approved by
the Compensation Committee. If there is any ambiguity as to the
meaning of any terms or provisions of the Plan, the Compensation Committee’s
interpretation or determination will be final and binding. The
altering, inflating and/or inappropriate manipulation of performance/sales
results or any other infraction of recognized ethical business standards may
subject the Participant to disciplinary action up to and including termination
of employment. In addition, any incentive compensation as provided by
the Plan to which the Participant would otherwise be entitled may be
revoked.
General
Conditions. The Plan, and the transactions and payments
hereunder shall, in all respects, be governed by, and construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of Duval County, Florida. Each provision of
the Plan is severable, and if any provision is held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall not, in any way, be affected or impaired thereby.
Compliance with Section
409A. It is intended that the terms of this Plan, including
any ambiguous terms, be interpreted in a manner consistent with Code Section
409A (‘Section 409A’). Any provision that would cause this Plan, or
any payment hereunder, to fail to satisfy Section 409A shall have no force or
effect until amended to comply with Section 409A, which amendment may be
retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Company be liable to
Participant for, or with respect to, any taxes, penalties, or interest which may
be imposed upon Participant pursuant to Section 409A.
Six-Month Delay. If
it is determined that (a) Participant is a ‘specified employee,’ as defined in
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) and the regulations and other guidance promulgated
thereunder and any elections made by the Company in accordance therewith, and
(b) such payments constitute a distribution of deferred compensation (within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)) upon separation from service
(within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), after taking
into account all available exemptions, then notwithstanding the timing of
payment provided in this Plan, no payment, distribution, or benefit under this
Plan that constitutes a distribution of deferred compensation and that would
otherwise be payable during the six (6) month period after Executive’s
separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(h)), will be made during such six (6) month period, and any such
payment, distribution or benefit will instead be paid on the first business day
after such six (6) month period.
