Calculation of Gross-Up Payment. Subject to the provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section 3, all determinations required to be made under this Section 3, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be used in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a certified public accounting firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive (the "Accounting Firm"), which shall be retained to provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive. If the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, the Executive shall have the right to appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 3, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which should have been made will not have been made by the Company ("Underpayment"), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. If the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 3 and the Executive thereafter is required to pay an Excise Tax in an amount that exceeds the Gross-Up Payment received by the Executive the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive.
Calculation of Gross-Up Payment. The determination of whether a Gross-Up Payment is required pursuant to this Exhibit B and the amount of any such Gross-Up Payment shall be determined in writing (the “Determination”) by a nationally-recognized certified public accounting firm selected by the Corporation (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its Determination in writing, together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation and any assumptions used in making such computation, to the Corporation and the Executive on or prior to the change of control event (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code). Within twenty (20) days following delivery of the Accounting Firm’s Determination, the Executive shall have the right, at the Corporation’s expense, to obtain the opinion of an “outside counsel,” which opinion need not be unqualified, which sets forth: (i) the amount of the Executive’s “annualized includible compensation for the base period” (as defined in Code Section 280G(d) (1)); (ii) the present value of the Total Payments made to the Executive; (iii) the amount and present value of any “excess parachute payment;” and (iv) detailed supporting calculations and documentation and any assumptions used in making such computations. The opinion of such outside counsel shall be supported by the opinion of a nationally-recognized certified public accounting firm and, if necessary or required by the Corporation, a firm of nationally-recognized executive compensation consultants. The Executive shall also have the right to obtain such an opinion of outside counsel in the event that the Corporation has not timely submitted the initial determination to the Accounting Firm as provided above (including, without limitation, in the event that the Corporation does not submit such a determination to the Accounting Firm following an event in connection with which the Executive reasonably believes that he may be entitled to a Gross-Up Payment). The outside counsel’s opinion shall be binding upon the Corporation and the Executive and shall constitute the “Determination” for purposes of this Exhibit B instead of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm. The Corporation shall pay (or to the extent paid by the Executive, reimburse the Executive for) the certified public accounting firm’s and, if applicable, the executive compensation consultant’s reasonable and customary fees for rendering such opinion. For purposes of this Section B.2, “outside counsel” means a licensed a...
Calculation of Gross-Up Payment. For purposes of determining whether any of the Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax the following will apply:
Calculation of Gross-Up Payment. All determinations required to be made under this Section 8 shall be made by First Security’s independent auditors or such other certified public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Executive as may be designated by First Security (the "Accounting Firm"), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to First Security and the Executive within a reasonable period of time of receipt of notice from First Security that a Payment has been made. First Security shall bear all fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm. Any Gross-Up Payment shall be paid by First Security to or on behalf of the Executive no later than the due date for the payment of the Excise Tax and no earlier than the date of receipt of Accounting Firm’s determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding on First Security and the Executive.
Calculation of Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s regular outside independent public accounting firm or its regular outside law firm (the “Professional Firm”) shall determine, promptly following the occurrence of a Change in Control, whether any economic benefit, payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid, payable, distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, (such excise tax referred to in this Agreement as the “Excise Tax”). In the event it is determined that the present value of all Payments which constitute “parachute payments” (calculated in accordance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder), in the aggregate, exceeds three (3) times the Executive’s “base amount” (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) (the “Safe Harbor Amount”) by an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Safe Harbor Amount, then the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up-Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by the Executive of all applicable federal, state and local income and excise taxes, the Executive retains an amount equal to the amount he would have retained had no Excise Tax been imposed upon the Payment, provided, if the present value of all such Payments, in the aggregate, exceeds the Safe Harbor Amount by an amount equal to less than ten percent (10%) of the Safe Harbor Amount, then the value of any such Payments shall be reduced by such amount as determined by the Professional Firm so that the present value of all such Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount minus one dollar ($1.00). The initial Gross-Up Payment, if any, as determined pursuant to this Section 7.7(a), shall be paid to the Executive within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination or, if later, within five (5) business days of the receipt of the Professional Firm’s determination. With respect to all determinations made by the Professional Firm under this Section 7.7, the Professional Firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within thirty (30) business days of the Date of Termination, if applicable, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. All determinations by the Professional Firm under this Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and the Executiv...
