Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Corporate Change 409A Event shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person acquires ownership of more than 30% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company as a result of the acquisition by the Company of stock of the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the percentage of shares beneficially owned by such person; provided, that if a Corporate Change 409A Event would occur as a result of such an acquisition by the Company (if not for the operation of this sentence), and after the Company’s acquisition such person becomes the beneficial owner of additional stock of the Company that increases the percentage of outstanding shares of stock of the Company owned by such person, a Corporate Change 409A Event shall then occur. |

(h) | Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2, in the event that the Executive is a Specified Employee upon the Date of Termination, to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code, amounts and benefits to be paid or provided under this Agreement following the Date of Termination and not on account of the Executive’s Disability shall be paid or provided to the Executive on the first day of the seventh month following the Date of Termination. |
(a) | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement or plan to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company or its affiliates to the Executive or for the Executive’s benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (“Covered Payments”) constitute parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and would, but for this Section 3, be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the “Excise Tax”), then prior to making the Covered Payments, a calculation shall be made comparing (i) the “Net Benefit” (as defined below) to the Executive of the Covered Payments after payment of the Excise Tax to (ii) the Net Benefit to the Executive if the Covered Payments are limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. Only if the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount under (ii) above will the Covered Payments be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Covered Payments is subject to the Excise Tax. “Net Benefit” shall mean the present value of the Covered Payments net of all federal, state, local, foreign income, employment and excise taxes. |
(b) | Any such reduction of Covered Payments under Section 3(a) shall be made in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and the following: |
(iii) | the Covered Payments which do not constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be reduced first; and |
(iv) | all other Covered Payments shall then be reduced as follows: (A) cash payments shall be reduced before non-cash payments, (B) cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards (based on the reverse order of the date of grant) before reduction of welfare benefits, and (C) payments to be made on a later payment date shall be reduced before payments to be made on an earlier payment date. |
(c) | All determinations required to be made under this Section 3 shall be made by such professional consulting firm engaged by the Company from time to time as its independent consultant (the “Consulting Firm”). The Consulting Firm shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, both to the Company and the Executive (collectively, the “Determination”). In the event that the Consulting Firm is serving as a consultant for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, the Company shall prior to the Change in Control appoint a nationally recognized public accounting firm to make the determination required under this Agreement (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Consulting Firm under this Agreement). All fees, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, the costs of retaining experts) of the Consulting Firm shall be borne by the Company. The Determination by the Consulting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive (except as provided in Subsection (d) below). |
(d) | If it is established pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) proceeding which has been finally and conclusively resolved, that payments have been made to, or provided for the benefit of, the Executive by the Company that are in the aggregate more than the amount provided under this Section 3 (hereinafter referred |
(a) | This Agreement shall not be terminated by any Business Combination or transfer of assets. In the event of any Business Combination or transfer of assets, the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the surviving or resulting corporation or any person or entity to which the assets of the Company are transferred. |
(b) | The Company agrees that concurrently with any Business Combination or transfer of assets, it will cause any successor or transferee unconditionally to assume by written instrument delivered to the Executive (or his beneficiary or estate) all of the obligations of the Company hereunder. Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption prior to the effectiveness of any such Business Combination or transfer of assets that results in a Change in Control shall constitute Good Reason hereunder and shall entitle the Executive to compensation and other benefits from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as the Executive would be entitled hereunder if the Executive’s employment were terminated following a Change in Control other than by reason of a Nonqualifying Termination. For purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such Business Combination or transfer of assets becomes effective shall be deemed the date Good Reason occurs, and the Executive may terminate employment for Good Reason on or following such date. |
(c) | This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. If the Executive shall die while any amounts would be payable to the Executive hereunder had the Executive continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to such person or persons appointed in writing by the Executive to receive such amounts (the “Beneficiary” or “Beneficiaries”) or, if no person is so appointed, to the Executive’s estate. |
(a) | For purposes of this Agreement, all notices and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, certified and return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: |
(b) | A written notice of the Executive’s Date of Termination by the Company or the Executive, as the case may be, to the other, shall (i) indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) to the extent applicable, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) specify the Date of Termination (which date shall not be less than fifteen (15) nor more than sixty (60) days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the Company to set forth in such notice any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company hereunder or preclude the Executive or the Company from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. |
