We examine the superconducting gap nodes in crystals with tetrahedral (T_h) symmetry. The (0,0,1) phase of the three dimensional order parameter in the triplet channel has nodes in the [001] directions. Following a second order phase transition to the state (0,i|eta_2|,|eta_1|), each node lifts away from the Fermi surface and splits into two deep dips. We discuss this scenario in the context of multiple superconducting phases in PrOs4Sb12.
