5.2           If a bonus award is payable to a Participant who is no longer employed by the Company or an affiliate of the Company by reason of such Participant’s death, disability or retirement, the amount of the bonus award payable to such Participant shall be reduced to reflect the portion of the year the Participant was a Participant in the Plan, as provided in Section 2.2, above.

5.3           Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee may, at its discretion, provide for the payment of all or of any portion of an approved bonus award to a Participant by a transfer to such Participant of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.10 (the “Shares”), subject to the following terms and conditions:
