Treatment of Section 280g Sample Clauses

Treatment of Section 280g. If it is determined that the amounts payable to the Executive under the Agreement, when considered together with any amounts payable to the Executive in connection with a Change in Control, cause such payments to be treated as “excess parachute payments” as defined under Code Section 280G (“Excess Parachute Payments”), and such payments equal an amount that is at least equal to the product of (a) 3.3, multiplied by (b) the “base amount” as defined under Code Section 280G (“Base Amount”), then the Company will make an additional “gross up” payment to the Executive, which shall be in an amount sufficient to pay for any additional tax imposed on the Executive pursuant to Code Section 4999 and any additional interest or penalties imposed on the Executive with respect to such tax, plus the federal, state and local taxes applicable to such additional “gross up” payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the amounts payable to the Executive under the Agreement, when considered together with any amounts payable to the Executive in connection with a Change in Control, will cause such payments to be treated as Excess Parachute Payments, but such payments will equal an amount which is less than the product of (x) 3.3, multiplied by (y) the Base Amount, then the payments to the Executive under this Agreement will be reduced to the extent necessary so that no additional tax will be imposed on the Executive pursuant to Code Section 4999.

The determination of whether the amount or amounts shall be made at New Grey's expense by an accounting firm selected by Parent from among the four largest accounting firms in the United States (the "Accounting Firm").

Treatment of Section 280g. In the event that any amounts provided for under these agreements or otherwise payable to the Executive would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and be subject to the related excise tax, the Company will pay 100 percent of the excess parachute payment, excluding any applicable excise tax, unless the Executive elects in writing to receive less. Two separate calculations will be performed by an external tax consultant designated by the Compensation Committee; the first calculates the amount the Executive would retain net of taxes (including excise tax) if all excess parachute payments are made to the Executive, and the second calculates the amount the Executive would retain net of taxes (including excise tax) if parachute payments were made subject to a clawback provision (e.g., 2.99 times the base amount). The Executive shall be required to elect which payment option he or she prefers, said election to be made in writing within 14 days after receipt of the calculations, and shall thereafter be paid pursuant to his election. The Executive is then paid the amount that maximizes his net-after-tax retention (i.e., “best-net benefit”). In the event that the Executive fails to elect, he or she will be deemed to have elected to receive the full amount of the excess parachute payment.

  • Application of Section 409A Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the following provisions apply to the extent severance benefits provided herein are subject to Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively “Section 409A”). Severance benefits shall not commence until Executive has a “separation from service” for purposes of Section 409A. If Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, any installment payments of Disability Base Salary Payments pursuant to Section 6.3(b) or Cash Compensation Amounts pursuant to Section 6.5(b) or 6.6(b) that are triggered by a separation from service shall be accelerated to the minimum extent necessary so that (a) the lesser of (y) the total cash severance payment amount, or (z) six (6) months of such installment payments are paid no later than March 15 of the calendar year following such termination, and (b) all amounts paid pursuant to the foregoing clause (a) will constitute separate payments for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations and thus will be payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations. It is intended that if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code at the time of such separation from service the foregoing provision shall result in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code because payments to Executive will either be payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations or will not be paid until at least 6 months after separation from service. The severance benefits are intended to qualify for an exemption from application of Section 409A or comply with its requirements to the extent necessary to avoid adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein shall be interpreted accordingly.

  • Application of Section 409A of the Code (a) This Agreement shall be interpreted to avoid any penalty sanctions under section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”). If any payment or benefit cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring sanctions under section 409A of the Code, then such benefit or payment shall be provided in full (to extent not paid in part at earlier date) at the earliest time thereafter when such sanctions shall not be imposed. For purposes of section 409A of the Code, all payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon the Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of such term under section 409A of the Code), each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment, and the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the fiscal year of payment, except as permitted under section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to amounts under this Agreement are nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, in no event shall the timing of the Executive’s execution of the Release, directly or indirectly, result in the Executive designating the calendar year of payment, and if a payment that is subject to execution of the Release could be made in more than one taxable year, payment shall be made in the later taxable year. (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, the Company has securities which are publicly traded on an established securities market and the Executive is a “specified employee” (as such term is defined in section 409A of the Code) and it is necessary to postpone the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable under this Agreement as a result of such termination of employment to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under section 409A of the Code, then the Company shall postpone the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Executive) that are not otherwise paid first within the ‘short-term deferral exception’ under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(4), and then under the ‘separation pay exception’ under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), until the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is 6 months following the Executive’s “separation of service” (as such term is defined under code section 409A of the Code) with the Company. If any payments are postponed due to such requirements, such postponed amounts shall be paid in a lump sum to the Executive on the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is 6 months following Executive’s separation of service with the Company. If the Executive dies during the postponement period prior to the payment of postponed amount, the amounts withheld on account of section 409A of the Code shall be paid to the personal representative of the Executive’s estate within 60 days after the date of the Executive’s death. (c) All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of section 409A of the Code, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement shall be for expenses incurred during the Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
