Gross-Up Payments If all or any portion of any payment or benefit that the Employee is entitled to receive from the Company pursuant to this Agreement (a "Payment") constitutes an "excess parachute payment" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and as such is subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or to any similar Federal, state or local tax or assessment (the "Excise Tax"), the Company or its successors or assigns shall pay to the Employee an additional amount (the "Gross-Up Payment") with respect to such Payment. The amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be sufficient that, after paying (a) any Excise Tax on the Payment, (b) any Federal, state or local income or employment taxes and Excise Tax on the Gross-Up Payment, and (c) any interest and penalties imposed in respect of the Excise Tax, the Employee shall retain an amount equal to the full amount of the Payment. For the purpose of determining the amount of any Gross-Up Payment, the Employee shall be deemed to pay Federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate applicable in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate applicable in the state and locality where the Employee resides on the date the Gross-Up Payment is made, net of the maximum reduction in Federal income taxes that could be obtained from deducting such state and local taxes. The Gross-Up Payment with respect to any Payment shall be paid to the Employee within ten (10) days after the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority issues a notice stating that an Excise Tax is due with respect to the Payment, unless the Company undertakes to challenge the taxing authority on the applicability of such Excise Tax and indemnifies the Employee for (a) any amounts ultimately determined to be payable, including the Excise Tax and any related interest and penalties, (b) all expenses (including attorneys' and experts' fees) reasonably incurred by the Employee in connection with such challenge, as such expenses are incurred, and (c) all amounts that the Employee is required to pay to the taxing authorities during the pendency of such challenge (such amounts to be repaid by the Employee to the Company if they are ultimately refunded to the Employee by the taxing authority).
Separation Payments Following Executive’s separation from service with Company on or after his Vesting Date (as defined in Section 7), Company shall pay to Executive the sum of THIRTY-FOUR THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED SEVEN and 04/100 Dollars ($34,207.04) per month, beginning six months and one week after Executive’s date of separation for a period of ten (10) years, or until Executive’s death, whichever first occurs (the “Separation Payments”). Such payments shall be subject to any and all applicable withholding, Social Security, employment, income and other taxes or assessments, if any, under the applicable tax law. If Executive should die during the ten-year period during which payments are being made under this Paragraph 3, then those payments shall terminate and future payments, if any, shall be made to Executive’s designated beneficiary(ies) or Executive’s estate in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4 of this Agreement.
Income Payments Seller shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to all Income paid or distributed on or in respect of the Securities that is not otherwise received by Seller, to the full extent it would be so entitled if the Securities had not been sold to Buyer. Buyer shall, as the parties may agree with respect to any Transaction (or, in the absence of any such agreement, as Buyer shall reasonably determine in its discretion), on the date such Income is paid or distributed either (i) transfer to or credit to the account of Seller such Income with respect to any Purchased Securities subject to such Transaction or (ii) with respect to Income paid in cash, apply the Income payment or payments to reduce the amount, if any, to be transferred to Buyer by Seller upon termination of such Transaction. Buyer shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to the preceding sentence (A) to the extent that such action would result in the creation of a Margin Deficit, unless prior thereto or simultaneously therewith Seller transfers to Buyer cash or Additional Purchased Securities sufficient to eliminate such Margin Deficit, or (B) if an Event of Default with respect to Seller has occurred and is then continuing at the time such Income is paid or distributed.
Lump Sum Payments If, during the Employment Period, the Company terminates the Executive's employment other than for Cause, or the Executive terminates employment for Good Reason, the Company shall pay to the Executive the following amounts:
Upfront Payments Within ten (10) days of the Effective Date, Celgene shall pay Acceleron Twenty-Five Million U.S. Dollars ($25,000,000) as an upfront, non-creditable, nonrefundable fee, relating to the license grants set forth in Article 4.

Company Payments In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company, as applicable, pursuant to Sections 7.1(d), 7.1(f) or 7.1(h), Company shall promptly, but in no event later than two days after the date of such termination, pay Parent a fee equal to $50 million in immediately available funds; provided, that in the case of a termination under Sections 7.1(d) or 7.1(h) prior to which no Triggering Event has occurred, (i) such payment shall be made only if (A) following the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of this Agreement, a person has publicly announced a bona fide Acquisition Proposal and (B) within nine months following the termination of this Agreement either a Company Acquisition (as defined below) is consummated, or the Company enters into an agreement providing for a Company Acquisition and such Company Acquisition is later consummated with the person (or another person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, such person) with whom such agreement was entered into (regardless of when such consummation occurs if the Company has entered into such an agreement within such nine-month period) and (ii) such payment shall be made promptly, but in no event later than two days after the consummation of such Company Acquisition (regardless of when such consummation occurs if the Company has entered into such an agreement within such nine-month period). Company acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.3(b) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Parent would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Company fails to pay in a timely manner the amounts due pursuant to this Section 7.3(b), and, in order to obtain such payment, Parent makes a claim that results in a judgment against the Company for the amounts set forth in this Section 7.3(b), Company shall pay to Parent its reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amounts set forth in this Section 7.3(b) at the prime rate of The Chase Manhattan Bank in effect on the date such payment was required to be made. Payment of the fees described in this Section 7.3(b) shall not be in lieu of damages incurred in the event of breach of this Agreement.
Net Payments All payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any Note will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payment (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or gross income or gross receipts of any Bank (other than withholding taxes or taxes in lieu of withholding taxes) pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) in which the principal office or lending office of such Bank is located or in which such Bank is organized or in which such Bank is doing business through a branch or office from which such jurisdiction treats a Loan as having been made) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, "Taxes").
