Capped Benefit definition

Capped Benefit shall equal the Specified Benefits, reduced by the amount necessary to prevent any portion of the Specified Benefits from being a “parachute payment” as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code. The Capped Benefit would therefore equal 2.99 multiplied by your applicable “base amount” as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code. For purposes of determining whether you would receive a greater after-tax benefit from the Capped Benefit than from the Specified Benefits, there shall be taken into account any excise tax that would be imposed under Section 4999 of the Code and all federal, state and local taxes required to be paid by you in respect of the receipt of such payments. The parties acknowledge that the application of Section 280G is uncertain in many respects and agree that the Company shall make all calculations and determinations under this section (including application and interpretation of the Code and related regulatory, administrative and judicial authorities) in good faith, which calculations and determinations shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall provide you with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Company’s calculations of the Capped Benefit and to request which of the Specified Benefits shall be reduced. If, after payment of any amount under this Agreement or any Other Arrangement, it is determined that the calculation of the Capped Benefit was calculated incorrectly, the amount of the Capped Benefit will be adjusted, the Company shall pay to you any additional amount that should have been paid to you, and you shall repay to the Company any amount that should not have been paid to you, in each case with interest at the discount rate applicable under Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code.

Capped Benefit means the Specified Benefits, reduced by the amount necessary to prevent any portion of the Specified Benefits from being "parachute payments" as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("IRC"), or any successor provision. For purposes of determining whether Executive would receive a greater after-tax benefit from the Capped Benefit than from the Specified Benefits, there shall be taken into account all payments and benefits Executive will receive upon a change in control of the Company (collectively, excluding the Specified Benefits, the "Change of Control Payments"). To determine whether Executive's after-tax benefit from the Capped Benefit would be greater than Executive's after-tax benefit from the Specified Benefits, there shall be subtracted from the sum of the before-tax Specified Benefits and the Change of Control Payments (including the monetary value of any non-cash benefits) any excise tax that would be imposed under IRC § 4999 and all federal, state and local taxes required to be paid by Executive in respect of the receipt of such payments, assuming that such payments would be taxed at the highest marginal rate applicable to individuals in the year in which the Specified Benefits are to be paid or such lower rate as Executive advises the Company in writing is applicable to Executive. In the event that the Company and Executive are unable to agree as to the amount of the reduction described above, if any, Executive shall select a law firm or accounting firm from among those regularly consulted (during the twelve-month period immediately prior to the date of termination) by the Company regarding federal income tax matters, and such law firm or accounting firm shall determine the amount of such reduction and such determination shall be final and binding upon Executive and the Company.

For purposes of determining whether any amounts will be subject to the Excise Tax and the amount of such Excise Tax, (a) all amounts representing the Severance Payments shall be treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, and all “excess parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion of tax counsel selected by the Company’s independent auditors and acceptable to Executive, the Severance Payments (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation for services actually rendered within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code in excess of the base amount within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax, (b) the amount of the Severance Payments which shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax shall be equal to the lesser of (1) the total amount of the Severance Payments or (2) the amount of excess parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code (after applying clause (a), above), and (c) the value of any non-cash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by the Company’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.
