Xxxxx-Up Payment i. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below, if it shall be determined that any amount paid, distributed or treated as paid or distributed by the Company to or for Executive’s benefit (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required under this Section 9 and after any reduction determined pursuant to section 8.A.ix., if applicable,) (a “Payment”) would be subject 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 (a) an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment by Executive of all federal, state and local taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto) 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; and (b) an amount such that, after providing for all federal, state and local taxes payable by the Executive as a result of the payment provided for in this clause 9.A.i.(b) (including, without limitation, any resulting additional excise tax on Excess Parachute Payments), the Executive retains an amount equal to the product of (i) any deductions disallowed for federal, state or local income tax purposes because of the inclusion of the Gross-Up Payment in Executive’s adjusted gross income multiplied by (ii) the highest applicable marginal rate of federal, state or local income taxation, respectively, for the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made .
Xxxxx-Up Payment. If the amount of the Payments exceeds the Threshold Amount by more than Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), then the Company shall pay to Employee an additional payment (a “Gross-up Payment”) in an amount of up to the first Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of Excise Tax imposed upon the Payments (inclusive of any Excise Tax, federal, state and local payroll (such as Social Security and Medicare taxes) and other taxes and income taxes imposed upon the Gross-up Payment). All determinations required to be made as to whether a Gross-up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-up Payment shall be made by the Accounting Firm. As a result of the 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 will not have been made by the Company should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that the Company exhausts its remedies as described below, and Employee is thereafter required to make a payment or an additional payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to Employee or for his benefit, subject to the aggregate dollar limitation set forth in the first sentence of this Section 10(b).

The amount of the Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Accounting Firm (as defined below) in accordance with the formula {(E x (1 - M)/(1 - T)) - E} (or such other formula as the Accounting Firm deems appropriate which is intended to achieve the same result), where E equals the Payments which are determined to be "excess parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code; M equals the sum of the highest marginal rates(1) for Taxes (as defined below) applicable to Executive at the time of the Payment; and
