Common use of Tax Loan Clause in Contracts

Tax Loan. Notwithstanding any provisions in the Agreement, the Grantee hereby agrees that he / she is liable for payment or withholding of the income tax due in connection with the Restricted Stock Units and hereby covenants to pay all such taxes, as and when requested by the Company or (if different) the Grantee’s employer or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Grantee also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and (if different) the Grantee’s employer against any such taxes that they are required to pay or withhold on the Grantee’s behalf or have paid or will pay to the HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is a director or executive officer (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that the Grantee is a director or executive officer and income tax due is not collected from or paid by the Grantee within 90 days after the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected tax may constitute a benefit to the Grantee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company or (if different) the Grantee’s employer for the value of any employee national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit, which the Company or (if different) the Grantee’s employer may recover from the Grantee at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in the Agreement.
