(g) Subject to compliance with Rule 144, upon any transfer of Company stock by Executive, the Company agrees to provide reasonable assistance to Executive in regard to the removal of any restrictive legends or stop orders on the stock. (h) No payment or other consideration under this Section 5 3 shall be made or provided to Executive prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement, and if this Agreement is not effective then no payment or other consideration shall be made or provided to Executive. In paying the amount specified in this Section 53, the Company makes no representation as to the tax consequences or liability arising from said payment including, without limitation, under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). Moreover, the parties understand and agree that Executive’s any tax consequences and/or liability arising from the payment to Executive shall be the sole responsibility of Executive. To this extent, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive will pay any and all income tax which may be determined to be due by him in connection with the any payment or benefit described in this Section 53. Executive also agrees to indemnify the Company for any and all tax liability (including, but not limited to, fines, penalties, interest, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees) incurred by him arising from or relating to the payment described in this Section 5 3 and/or imposed by the Internal Revenue Service, the State of Indiana, or any other taxing agency or tribunal as a result of Executive’s failure to timely pay Executive’s taxes on said payment or any portion thereof. The payments and obligations assumed by the Company in this Section 5 3 reflect consideration provided to Executive over and above anything of value to which Executive already is entitled, and will be subject to all applicable taxes, withholdings, and deductions. The Company may deduct from any payment to Executive any applicable withholding. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the consideration and sums included in this Section 3 are the maximum sums ever to be due Executive from the Company and that no other sums or amounts are or will be due or owing to him and Executive expressly relinquishes and waives any rights or claims to additional sums, amounts, privileges, or benefits not expressly provided for in this Section 53, whether written, oral, express or implied.
