Adverse Tax Position Clause Samples

An Adverse Tax Position clause defines the parties' rights and obligations if a transaction or arrangement results in unfavorable tax consequences. Typically, this clause outlines procedures for addressing situations where a tax authority challenges the intended tax treatment, such as requiring one party to notify the other, cooperate in defense, or reimburse for additional taxes or penalties. Its core function is to allocate the risk of unexpected tax liabilities and provide a clear process for managing disputes or adjustments, thereby reducing uncertainty and potential financial exposure for the parties involved.

  • Best After-Tax Result In the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by Executive pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (“Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this subsection (a), be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, any successor provisions, or any comparable federal, state, local or foreign excise tax (“Excise Tax”), then, subject to the provisions of Section 10, such Payments shall be either (A) provided in full pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other applicable agreement, or (B) provided as to such lesser extent which would result in the Payments being $1.00 less than the amount at which any portion of the Payments would be subject to the Excise Tax (“Reduced Amount”), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment and other taxes and the Excise Tax (including, without limitation, any interest or penalties on such taxes), results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of payments and benefits provided for hereunder or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made by independent tax counsel designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive (“Independent Tax Counsel”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required under this Section, Independent Tax Counsel may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code; provided that Independent Tax Counsel shall assume that Executive pays all taxes at the highest marginal rate. The Company and Executive shall furnish to Independent Tax Counsel such information and documents as Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs that Independent Tax Counsel may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section. In the event that Section 9(a)(ii)(B) above applies, then based on the information provided to Executive and the Company by Independent Tax Counsel, Executive may, in Executive’s sole discretion and within thirty (30) days of the date on which Executive is provided with the information prepared by Independent Tax Counsel, determine which and how much of the Payments (including the accelerated vesting of equity compensation awards) to be otherwise received by Executive shall be eliminated or reduced (as long as after such determination the value (as calculated by Independent Tax Counsel in accordance with the provisions of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code) of the amounts payable or distributable to Executive equals the Reduced Amount). If the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) determines that any Payment is subject to the Excise Tax, then Section 9(b) hereof shall apply, and the enforcement of Section 9(b) shall be the exclusive remedy to the Company.

  • Excise Tax Limitation (a) It is the intention of the Parties that no portion of any payment under this Agreement, or payments to or for the benefit of Executive under any other agreement or plan, be deemed to be an Excess Parachute Payment. The present value of payments to or for the benefit of Executive in the nature of compensation, receipt of which is contingent on a Change in Control, and to which Code Section 280G applies (in the aggregate “Total Payments”) shall not exceed an amount equal to one dollar ($1.00) less than the maximum amount that the Company may pay without loss of deduction under Code Section 280G(a). Present value for purposes of this Agreement shall be calculated in accordance with Code Section 280G(d)(4). Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the earlier of (i) the giving of the notice of termination or (ii) the giving of notice by the Company to Executive of its belief that there is a payment or benefit due Executive that will result in an Excess Parachute Payment, the Parties, at the Company’s expense, shall obtain the opinion of an Independent Advisor, which opinion need not be unqualified, which sets forth (A) Executive’s applicable “base amount” (as defined under Code Section 280G), (B) the present value of Total Payments and (C) the amount and present value of any Excess Parachute Payments. In the event that such opinion determines that there would be an Excess Parachute Payment, the payment hereunder or any other payment determined by such Independent Advisor to be includable in Total Payments shall be modified, reduced or eliminated, in accordance with Code Section 409A, as specified by Executive in writing delivered to the Company within ninety (90) days of Executive’s receipt of such opinions or, if Executive fails to so notify the Company, then as the Company shall reasonably determine, so that under the bases of calculation set forth in such opinions there will be no Excess Parachute Payment. The provisions of this Section 6, including the calculations, notices and opinion provided for herein, shall be based upon the conclusive presumption that (A) the compensation and benefits provided for in Section 3 and (B) any other compensation earned by Executive pursuant to the Company’s compensation programs that would have been paid in any event, are reasonable compensation for services rendered, even though the timing of such payment may be triggered by a Change in Control. (b) The Parties hereby recognize that the restrictive covenants under Section 7 have value that is equivalent in amount to some or all of the Severance Amount (and potentially other termination benefits) and that such value shall be recognized in the Code Section 280G calculations contemplated hereunder. The Independent Advisor shall make the determination of the actual fair market value of the restrictive covenants under Section 7 at the time of the Change in Control.
