Common use of Maximum Limit Clause in Contracts

Maximum Limit. In the event that any payment or benefit that Executive is eligible to receive from the Company, including but not limited to payments and benefits stated herein in this Agreement, is included in the calculation of “parachute payments” and may be subjected to the excise tax under the Golden Parachute Laws (“Payment”), the total of such Payments that the Executive is entitled to receive shall be subjected to a Maximum Limit. The term “Maximum Limit” is defined as the largest amount which would result in no Payment being subject to any excise tax under the Golden Parachute Laws. The Executive and the Company agree that, if the aggregate of all the Payments exceeds the Maximum Limit, the Executive would only be entitled to a portion of the Payments that he/she is eligible such that the total of the Payments that he/she receives would not exceed the Maximum Limit. The Executive has the discretion to determine which specific Payment or portion thereof he/she chooses to receive such that the aggregate of all Payments that he/she receives does not exceed the Maximum Limit.
