A Participant may elect to defer between (and including) 1% and 100% of such Participants Incentive Award.

Such election shall be irrevocable for the Plan Year with respect to which it is made once it has been accepted by the Executive Vice President, Human Capital. If a Participant first becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after the first day of such Plan Year, the Executive Vice President, Human Capital shall pro rate the Participants deferral election by multiply the Participants Incentive Award by the number of days left in the performance period (i.e., Plan Year) as of the date the Participants deferral election is received by Executive Vice President, Human Capital or his or her designee, over the total number of days in the performance period. An election made by a Participant for a Plan Year shall remain in effect for subsequent Plan Years unless, prior to such Plan Year, the election is changed or terminated by the Participant or the Participant is not selected for participation for that subsequent Plan Year.
