Tax Benefit Payments Section 3.1 Payments 12 Section 3.2 No Duplicative Payments 13
Benefit Payments Benefit Payments, as referred to in this Agreement, means the sum of (i) Claims, as described in Xxxxxxxxx 0 xxxxx, (xx) Cash Surrender Values, as described in Paragraph 3 below, and (iii) Annuity Payments, as described in Paragraph 7 below.
Refunds and Tax Benefits (a) Except to the extent such refund was accrued as an asset on the Closing Balance Sheet, the Purchaser shall promptly pay to the Seller the amount of any refund or credit (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) received or used, in the case of a credit, by the Purchaser or by any Pershing Company of Taxes (i) relating to taxable periods of any Pershing Company or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date or (ii) attributable to an amount paid by the Seller under Section 7.01 hereof. The Purchaser shall, if the Seller so requests and at the Seller's expense, cause the relevant entity to file for and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and expedite the receipt of any refund to which the Seller is entitled under this Section 7.02. The Purchaser shall permit the Seller to participate in (at the Seller's expense) the prosecution of any such refund claim. The Seller shall not be entitled to pursue any refund claim if such claim would increase Taxes payable by any Pershing Company or Purchaser after the Closing unless the Seller shall indemnify Purchaser for such increased Taxes. (b) Any amount otherwise payable by the Seller under Section 7.01 shall be reduced by the estimated present value of any net Tax benefit available to the Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with the payment of Taxes for which the Seller is responsible under Section 7.01, and increased by the estimated present value of any Tax cost reasonably expected to be incurred by the indemnified party or its Affiliates as the result of the receipt of such indemnity payment. The estimated present value of any net Tax benefit and the estimated present value of any Tax costs referred to in this subsection (and in Section 9.02(e)) shall be computed using the applicable federal rate for the appropriate time period as defined in Section 1274(d)(1) of the Code as the discount rate and a Tax rate for all relevant years of 40%.
Tax Benefit If, as the result of any Taxes paid or indemnified against by the Facility Lessee under this Section 9.2, the aggregate Taxes actually paid by the Tax Indemnitee for any taxable year and not subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.2 are less (whether by reason of a deduction, credit, allocation or apportionment of income or otherwise) than the amount of such Taxes that otherwise would have been payable by such Tax Indemnitee (a "Tax Benefit"), then to the extent such Tax Benefit was not taken into account in determining the amount of indemnification payable by the Facility Lessee under paragraph (a) or (c) above and provided no Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (in which event the payment provided under this Section 9.2(e) shall be deferred until the Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default has been cured), such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Facility Lessee the lesser of (A) (y) the amount of such Tax Benefit, plus (z) an amount equal to any United States federal, state or local income tax benefit resulting to the Tax Indemnitee from the payment under clause (y) above and this clause (z) (determined using the same assumptions as set forth in the second sentence under the definition of After-Tax Basis) and (B) the amount of the indemnity paid pursuant to this Section 9.2 giving rise to such Tax Benefit; provided, however, that any excess of (A) over (B) shall be carried forward and reduce the Facility Lessee's obligations to make subsequent payments to such Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.
Tax-Deferred Earnings The investment earnings of your Xxxx XXX are not subject to federal income tax as they accumulate in your Xxxx XXX. In addition, distributions of your Xxxx XXX earnings will be free from federal income tax if you take a qualified distribution, as described below.
Reduction of Severance Benefits If any payment or benefit that the Executive would receive from any Company Group member or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be either (x) the full amount of the Payment or (y) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and the Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by any member of the Company Group for any of those payments of personal tax liability.
Tax Reimbursement (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payments or distributions by Ceridian to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any payments required under this Section 7.04) (collectively, the "Payments") would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Excise Tax"), then Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, after payment by Executive of all taxes (and any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including any income taxes and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments. (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.04(d), all determinations required to be made under this Section 7.04, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by Ceridian's external auditors (the "Accounting Firm"), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to Ceridian and Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by Ceridian. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the "Accounting Firm" hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by Ceridian. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 7.04, shall be paid by Ceridian to Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm's determination. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon Ceridian and Executive. (c) As a result of uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which should have been made by Ceridian will not have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that Ceridian exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 7.04(d) and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any additional Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by Ceridian to or for the benefit of Executive. (d) Executive shall notify Ceridian in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority that, if successful, would require the payment by Ceridian of any Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after Executive knows of such claim and shall apprise Ceridian of the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the thirty-day period following the date on which it gives such notice to Ceridian (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If Ceridian notifies Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, Executive shall: (i) give Ceridian any information reasonably requested by Ceridian relating to such claim; (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as Ceridian shall reasonably request in writing from time to time, including accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by Ceridian; (iii) cooperate with Ceridian in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim; and (iv) permit Ceridian to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; provided, however, that Ceridian shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.04(d), Ceridian shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and xxx for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as Ceridian shall determine; provided further, however, that if Ceridian directs Executive to pay such claim and xxx for a refund, Ceridian shall advance the amount of such payment to Executive on an interest-free basis and shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided further that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. Furthermore, Ceridian's control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority. (e) If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by Ceridian pursuant to Section 7.04(d), Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, Executive shall (subject to Ceridian's complying with the requirements of Section 7.04(d)) promptly pay to Ceridian the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by Ceridian pursuant to Section 7.04(d), a determination is made that Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and Ceridian does not notify Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.

Termination Benefits (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, followed at any time during the term of this Agreement by the involuntary termination of the Executive’s employment (other than for Termination for Cause or death), or by the Executive for Good Reason, the Employers shall: (i) pay the Executive, or in the event of his subsequent death, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or his estate, as the case may be, a lump sum payment within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination an amount equal to three (3) times the Executive’s average annual compensation for the five most recent taxable years that the Executive has been employed by the Employers or such lesser number of years in the event that the Executive shall have been employed by the Employers for less than five years. For this purpose, annual compensation shall include base salary and any other taxable income, including, but not limited to, amounts related to the granting, vesting or exercise of restricted stock or stock option awards, commissions, bonuses, pension and profit sharing plan contributions or benefits (whether or not taxable), severance payments, retirement benefits, and fringe benefits paid or to be paid to the Executive or paid for the Executive’s benefit during any such year; and (ii) cause to be continued life insurance and non-taxable medical, dental and disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Employers for the Executive prior to his Date of Termination, except to the extent such coverage may be changed in its application to all employees on a nondiscriminatory basis. Such coverage and payments shall cease upon the expiration of thirty-six (36) full calendar months from the Date of Termination. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required to avoid penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the cash severance payable under Section 3 of this Agreement shall be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s Date of Termination. (c) For purposes of this Agreement, a “termination of employment” shall mean a “Separation from Service” as defined in Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, such that the Employers and the Executive reasonably anticipate that the level of bona fide services the Executive would perform after a termination of employment would permanently decrease to a level that is less than 50% of the average level of bona fide services performed (whether as an employee or as an independent contractor) over the immediately preceding thirty-six (36) month period.
