Contest of IRS Determination by Nordson. If Nordson desires to contest any determination by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the amount of excise tax under Section 4999, Employee will, upon receipt from Nordson of an unconditional written undertaking to indemnify and hold Employee harmless (on an after tax basis) from any and all adverse consequences that might arise from the contesting of that determination, cooperate with Nordson in that contest at Nordson’s sole expense. Nothing in this Section A will require Employee to incur any expense other than expenses with respect to which Nordson has paid to Employee sufficient sums so that after the payment of the expense by Employee and taking into account the payment by Nordson with respect to that expense and any and all taxes that may be imposed upon Employee as a result of [his/her] receipt of that payment, the net effect is no cost to Employee. Nothing in this Section A will require Employee to extend the statute of limitations with respect to any item or issue in [his/her] tax returns other than, exclusively, the excise tax under Section 4999. If, as the result of the contest of any assertion by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to excise tax under Section 4999, Employee receives a refund of a Section 4999 excise tax previously paid and/or any interest with respect thereto, Employee will promptly pay to Nordson such amount as will leave Employee, net of the repayment and all tax effects, in the same position, after all taxes and interest, that [he/she] would have been in if the refunded excise tax had never been paid. To assure compliance with Section 409A, Nordson will make payments to Employee with respect to expenses as contemplated in this Section A.4 subject to and as provided in Sections B.1 and B.2.
