Executive Perquisites, Benefits and Other Compensation Executive shall be entitled to receive additional benefits and compensation from the Company in such form and to such extent as specified below:
(i) Payment of all premiums for coverage for Executive and his dependent family members under health, hospitalization, disability, dental, life and other insurance plans that the Company may have in effect from time to time, benefits provided to Executive under this clause (i) to be at least equal to such benefits provided to Metals executives.
(ii) Reimbursement for all business travel and other out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by Executive in the performance of his services pursuant to this Agreement. All reimbursable expenses shall be appropriately documented in reasonable detail by Executive upon submission of any request for reimbursement, and in a format and manner consistent with the Company's expense reporting policy.
(iii) The Company shall provide Executive with other executive perquisites as may be available to or deemed appropriate for Executive by the Board and participation in all other Company-wide employee benefits as are available from time to time.
Payment of Employment Taxes and Other Expenses Should City, in its discretion, or a relevant taxing authority such as the Internal Revenue Service or the State Employment Development Division, or both, determine that Contractor is an employee for purposes of collection of any employment taxes, the amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced by amounts equal to both the employee and employer portions of the tax due (and offsetting any credits for amounts already paid by Contractor which can be applied against this liability). City shall then forward those amounts to the relevant taxing authority. Should a relevant taxing authority determine a liability for past services performed by Contractor for City, upon notification of such fact by City, Contractor shall promptly remit such amount due or arrange with City to have the amount due withheld from future payments to Contractor under this Agreement (again, offsetting any amounts already paid by Contractor which can be applied as a credit against such liability). A determination of employment status pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs shall be solely for the purposes of the particular tax in question, and for all other purposes of this Agreement, Contractor shall not be considered an employee of City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor agrees to indemnify and save harmless City and its officers, agents and employees from, and, if requested, shall defend them against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from this section.
