No other promises or agreements shall be binding unless in writing and signed by both the Company and the Executive.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 15 of each Award Agreement shall survive in accordance with its terms. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive agrees to comply at all times with Section 15 of each Award Agreement; it being understood that, for the

avoidance of doubt, all post-employment restrictive covenant periods contained in the Award Agreements shall begin to run from and after the Employment Separation Date, rather than from and after the end of the Advising Period, and that, the Executive shall inform the Chief HR Officer of the Company prior to commencing any employment or other services during the post-employment restrictive covenant periods contained in the Award Agreements.

Should any provision of this Agreement require interpretation or construction, it is agreed by the parties that the entity interpreting or constructing this Agreement shall not apply a presumption against one party by reason of the rule of construction that a document is to be construed more strictly against the party who prepared the document. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

15. Tax Matters; Authorized or Required Deductions; Independent Contractor Status.

(a) The Company may withhold from any and all amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement such federal, state or local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation and any authorized or required reductions.

(b) The intent of the Parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to be exempt therefrom or in compliance therewith, as applicable.

Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A. To the extent required by Section 409A, (i) any reimbursements required to be made by the Company to the Executive under this Agreement shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred and shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and (ii) in no event shall the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement in one calendar year affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year.
