DETERMINATION OF NUMBER OF TESTS. Required to Meet ETV Requirements Minimizing the cost of ETV testing is important, and reducing the number of tests conducted is one way to minimize cost. However, if too few tests are conducted, normal experimental variability could prevent the ETV from producing a useful outcome. For measurements having known variability and for stated expected reductions in emissions, the probability that a given number of tests can detect the expected reduction can be computed from statistical theory based on normal distributions. This ETV protocol requires that all ETV test/QA plans include sufficient tests to have a high probability of detecting the emissions reductions expected by the applicant. This requirement was implemented to ensure, as much as was practical, that the ETV test would accomplish the applicant’s goals. This requirement will generally only be important to ETV test design for low emissions reductions and/or measurements having high variability. Specifically, the ETV test is to be designed such that there is 95% confidence that there is a 90% probability of detecting the emission reductions expected by the applicant, computed from the expected experimental variability for the various measurements. In this context, “detecting” means that the 95% confidence interval does not include zero emissions reduction. (This requirement is for test design purposes, and does not require that the test/QA plan be modified should actual test data show that the assumptions that went into the calculation were incorrect. However, as explained below, insufficient replication can result in inability to issue a verification and publication of an ETV report stating that a technology had no statistically significant benefit.) An equation was derived to explicitly compute the number of tests required for normally distributed measurements having known standard deviations. Some results of applying that calculation are presented in Table 1 for PM and NOx emission reductions. The equation used to compute the number of tests required is presented in Appendix B. In Table 1 the baseline engine is assumed to be at a fixed emission value (the 1990 certification emission level for highway diesel engines) for PM (top of table) and NOx (bottom three rows). PM and NOx measurements are used in Table 1 because the measurement standard deviations were known for one laboratory. The results in Table 1 are limited by the requirement in the derivation that the measurements be normally distribute...

  • Determination of Amount In lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Units for which this Purchase Option is exercisable (and in lieu of being entitled to receive Common Stock and Warrants) in the manner required by Section 2.1, the Holder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to convert any exercisable but unexercised portion of this Purchase Option into Units ("Conversion Right") as follows: upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any of the Exercise Price in cash) that number of shares of Common Stock and Warrants comprising that number of Units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the "Value" (as defined below) of the portion of the Purchase Option being converted by (y) the Current Market Value (as defined below). The "Value" of the portion of the Purchase Option being converted shall equal the remainder derived from subtracting (a) (i) the Exercise Price multiplied by (ii) the number of Units underlying the portion of this Purchase Option being converted from (b) the Current Market Value of a Unit multiplied by the number of Units underlying the portion of the Purchase Option being converted. As used herein, the term "Current Market Value" per Unit at any date means the remainder derived from subtracting (x) the exercise price of the Warrants multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants underlying one Unit from (y) the Current Market Price of the Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of one Unit. The "Current Market Price" of a share of Common Stock shall mean (i) if the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market or NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor such as the Bulletin Board Exchange), the last sale price of the Common Stock in the principal trading market for the Common Stock as reported by the exchange, Nasdaq or the NASD, as the case may be; (ii) if the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, Nasdaq SmallCap Market or the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (or successor such as the Bulletin Board Exchange), but is traded in the residual over-the-counter market, the closing bid price for the Common Stock on the last trading day preceding the date in question for which such quotations are reported by the Pink Sheets, LLC or similar publisher of such quotations; and (iii) if the fair market value of the Common Stock cannot be determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, such price as the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine, in good faith.

  • Determination of Net Asset Value The Trustees shall cause the Net Asset Value of Shares of each Series or Class to be determined from time to time in a manner consistent with applicable laws and regulations. The Trustees may delegate the power and duty to determine Net Asset Value per Share to one or more Trustees or officers of the Trust or to a custodian, depository or other agent appointed for such purpose. The Net Asset Value of Shares shall be determined separately for each Series or Class at such times as may be prescribed by the Trustees or, in the absence of action by the Trustees, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each day for all or part of which such Exchange is open for unrestricted trading.

  • Determination of Gross-Up Payment Subject to sub-paragraph (c) below, all determinations required to be made under this Section 6, including whether a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, shall be made by the firm of independent public accountants selected by the Company to audit its financial statements for the year immediately preceding the Change in Control (the "Accounting Firm") which shall provide detailed supporting calculations to the Company and the Executive within 30 days after the date of the Executive's termination of employment. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group affecting the Change of Control, the Executive may appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required under this Section 6 (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the "Accounting Firm"). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with the work it performs pursuant to this Section 6 shall be promptly paid by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within 5 days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall furnish the Executive with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on the Executive's applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a penalty. 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, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"). In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to sub-paragraph (c) below, and the Executive is thereafter required to make a payment of Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall promptly determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within 5 days after such determination.

  • Determination of Market Rent If Tenant timely and appropriately objects to the Market Rent in Tenant’s Acceptance, Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Market Rent using their best good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within twenty-one (21) days following Tenant’s Acceptance (“Outside Agreement Date”), then each party shall make a separate determination of the Market Rent which shall be submitted to each other and to arbitration in accordance with the following items (i) through (vii):

  • Determination of Treasury Rate Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate, the “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below), the rate for the auction held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury bills”) having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, as published in H.15(519) under the heading “U.S. Government Securities-Treasury bills-auction average (investment)” or, if not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) as otherwise announced by the United States Department of the Treasury for Treasury bills on such Treasury Rate Determination Date having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof. In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury bills having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof are not published or reported as provided above by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be a yield to maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three leading primary United States government securities dealers selected by the Calculation Agent for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this sentence, the rate of interest for the applicable period will be the rate of interest in effect on such Treasury Rate Determination Date. The “Treasury Rate Determination Date” will be the day of the week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills would normally be auctioned. Treasury bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Date Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week. If an auction date shall fall on any Interest Reset Date for a Note whose Base Rate is the Treasury Rate, then such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day immediately following such auction date. The interest rate for each such Interest Reset Date shall be the Treasury Rate plus or minus the Spread or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, as indicated on the face hereof.

  • DETERMINATION OF TOP HEAVY STATUS If this Plan is the only qualified plan maintained by the Employer, the Plan is top heavy for a Plan Year if the top heavy ratio as of the Determination Date exceeds 60%. The top heavy ratio is a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the present value of Accrued Benefits of all Key Employees as of the Determination Date and the denominator of which is a similar sum determined for all Employees. The Advisory Committee must include in the top heavy ratio, as part of the present value of Accrued Benefits, any contribution not made as of the Determination Date but includible under Code Section 416 and the applicable Treasury regulations, and distributions made within the Determination Period. The Advisory Committee must calculate the top heavy ratio by disregarding the Accrued Benefit (and distributions, if any, of the Accrued Benefit) of any Non-Key Employee who was formerly a Key Employee, and by disregarding the Accrued Benefit (including distributions, if any, of the Accrued Benefit) of an individual who has not received credit for at least one Hour of Service with the Employer during the Determination Period. The Advisory Committee must calculate the top heavy ratio, including the extent to which it must take into account distributions, rollovers and transfers, in accordance with Code Section 416 and the regulations under that Code section. If the Employer maintains other qualified plans (including a simplified employee pension plan), or maintained another such plan which now is terminated, this Plan is top heavy only if it is part of the Required Aggregation Group, and the top heavy ratio for the Required Aggregation Group and for the Permissive Aggregation Group, if any, each exceeds 60%. The Advisory Committee will calculate the top heavy ratio in the same manner as required by the first paragraph of this Section 1.33, taking into account all plans within the Aggregation Group. To the extent the Advisory Committee must take into account distributions to a Participant, the Advisory Committee must include distributions from a terminated plan which would have been part of the Required Aggregation Group if it were in existence on the Determination Date. The Advisory Committee will calculate the present value of accrued benefits under defined benefit plans or simplified employee pension plans included within the group in accordance with the terms of those plans, Code Section 416 and the regulations under that Code section. If a Participant in a defined benefit plan is a Non-Key Employee, the Advisory Committee will determine his accrued benefit under the accrual method, if any, which is applicable uniformly to all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer or, if there is no uniform method, in accordance with the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule accrual method described in Code Section 411(b)(1)(C). If the Employer maintains a defined benefit plan, the Employer must specify in Adoption Agreement Section 3.18 the actuarial assumptions (interest and mortality only) the Advisory Committee will use to calculate the present value of benefits from a defined benefit plan. If an aggregated plan does not have a valuation date coinciding with the Determination Date, the Advisory Committee must value the Accrued Benefits in the aggregated plan as of the most recent valuation date falling within the twelve-month period ending on the Determination Date, except as Code Section 416 and applicable Treasury regulations require for the first and second plan year of a defined benefit plan. The Advisory Committee will calculate the top heavy ratio with reference to the Determination Dates that fall within the same calendar year.

  • Determination of Fair Market Value For purposes of this Section 10.2, “fair market value” of a share of Common Stock as of a particular date (the “Determination Date”) shall mean:

  • Certain Determinations For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax: (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code will be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments will be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) reasonably acceptable to the Executive and selected by the Accounting Firm, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments will be taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the “base amount” (as set forth in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) that is allocable to such reasonable compensation; and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments will be determined by the Accounting Firm in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. The Executive and the Company shall furnish such documentation and documents as may be necessary for the Accounting Firm to perform the requisite calculations and analysis under this Section 6 (and shall cooperate to the extent necessary for any of the determinations in this Section 6(c) to be made), and the Accounting Firm shall provide a written report of its determinations hereunder, including detailed supporting calculations. If the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Total Payments should be reduced as described above, it shall promptly notify the Executive and the Company to that effect. In the absence of manifest error, all determinations by the Accounting Firm under this Section 6 shall be binding on the Executive and the Company and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than 15 days following the later of the Executive’s date of termination of employment or the date of the transaction which causes the application of Section 280G of the Code. The Company shall bear all costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm and any legal counsel retained by the Accounting Firm.

  • Determination of Option Rent In the event Tenant timely and appropriately exercises an option to extend the Lease Term, Landlord shall notify Tenant of Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent within thirty (30) days thereafter. If Tenant, on or before the date which is ten (10) days following the date upon which Tenant receives Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent, in good faith objects to Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent, then Landlord and Tenant shall attempt to agree upon the Option Rent using their best good-faith efforts. If Landlord and Tenant fail to reach agreement within ten (10) days following Tenant’s objection to the Option Rent (the “Outside Agreement Date”), then Tenant shall have the right to withdraw its exercise of the option by delivering written notice thereof to Landlord within five (5) days thereafter, in which event Tenant’s right to extend the Lease pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be of no further force or effect. If Tenant does not withdraw its exercise of the extension option, each party shall make a separate determination of the Option Rent, as the case may be, within ten (10) days after the Outside Agreement Date, and such determinations shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Sections 2.2.3.1 through 2.2.3.7, below. If Tenant fails to object to Landlord’s determination of the Option Rent within the time period set forth herein, then Tenant shall be deemed to have objected to Landlord’s determination of Option Rent.

  • Determination of Entitlement (a) Where there has been a written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 5.01(b), then as soon as is reasonably practicable (but in any event not later than 60 days) after final disposition of the relevant Proceeding, a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case: (i) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, (A) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (B) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, (C) if there are no such Disinterested Directors or, if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change of Control shall have occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. If it is so determined that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification).
