“An election of a Scheduled Withdrawal made during any Open Enrollment Period must specify a payment date that is either three (3) years, four (4) years or five (5) years following the end of the Plan Year in which ends the last Bonus performance period and/or Quarterly Sales Bonus period to which a deferral election made during such Open Enrollment Period would apply. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amount deferred pursuant to a deferral election made pursuant to Section 3.1(c) of the Plan and in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(a)(4) with respect to a short-term deferral (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)) may only specify a payment date that is five (5) years following the end of the Plan Year in which ends the last Bonus performance period to which such a deferral election with respect to short-term deferrals would apply.
