Common use of Tax Equalization Clause in Contracts

Tax Equalization. The Company will reimburse the Executive for all reasonable and necessary costs incurred in connection with any cross-border tax filings that may be required, as well as the cost of joining the NEXUS program and any other visa or related issues with respect to the Executive’s employment with the Company. To the extent the Executive is subject to additional taxes in respect of services performed in Canada (whenever such services were performed on the Company’s behalf), the Company will reimburse the Executive for such additional taxes with an appropriate gross up calculation such that the Executive pays no more income taxes in respect of compensation from the Company then the Executive would have paid had the services solely been performed in the United States.
