If the Committee reasonably anticipates that if a payment were made as scheduled under the Plan it would result in a loss of the Company’s tax deduction due to the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, such payment may be delayed and paid during the Participant’s first taxable year in which the Committee reasonably anticipates that the Company’s tax deduction will not be limited or eliminated by the application of Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment under the Plan may be deferred in accordance with this Section 11 unless all scheduled payments to the Participant and all similarly situated Participants that could be delayed in accordance with Treas.
