Common use of Preparation of Tax Return; Notice to the Company Clause in Contracts

Preparation of Tax Return; Notice to the Company. The Company, at its expense, agrees to supply the Executive with advice from a tax practitioner as to whether the Executive must reflect an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and any state counterparts on the filing of any income tax return of the Executive relating to the period or periods in which the Executive received payments or benefits under this Agreement. If such tax practitioner advises that such excise tax must be reflected on such tax return, the Executive agrees to so reflect and, unless such tax was previously withheld from payments to the Executive, pay such tax and the Company will reimburse the Executive in accordance with Section 4(a) above as soon as practicable after receipt of proof of payment (or, in the case of tax that was previously withheld, proof that such return was filed as required) from the Executive. If such tax practitioner advises that such excise tax need not be reflected on such tax return, the Executive agrees to prepare and file his or her tax return in accordance with such advice. The Executive shall notify the Company in writing no less than thirty (30) days prior to the time the Executive is required to file each tax return, and shall promptly provide to the tax practitioner selected by the Company such information as it may request in connection with establishing the existence of an obligation to withhold tax pursuant to Section 16 or an obligation pursuant to this Section 4. If the Executive provides such notice and information and prepares the relevant tax return as provided in this Section 4(b), the Company shall indemnify the Executive in accordance with Section 4(a) for any subsequent assessment of Excise Taxes or Attributable Taxes by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or any state taxing authority, and any interest, penalties, and additions to tax directly relating to such Excise Taxes. If the Executive fails to comply fully with the requirements of this Section 4(b), then the Company’s obligations will not include indemnification or any interest, penalties or additions to tax. In the event the Executive’s liability for Excise Taxes is determined upon audit by the IRS or the relevant state taxing authority, the Company shall pay to the Executive the amounts determined in accordance with Section 4(a) and this Section 4(b) at such time as the Company determines that it no longer desires to contest the Executive’s liability pursuant to Section 4(c); provided, however, that in all events the Company will indemnify the Executive for interest, penalties and additions to tax, directly relating Excise Taxes, that accrue after such time the Company receives notice of a proposed assessment of Excise Taxes resulting from an audit of the Executive’s tax return. In no event will reimbursement under this Section 4(b) occur later than the end of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which he or she remits the related taxes.
