Section 409a. It is the intent of the parties that any payment to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement be exempt from Section 409A of the Code to the maximum extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code. However, to the extent any such amounts are considered to be "nonqualified deferred compensation" subject to Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be paid and provided in a manner, and at such time and form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code to ...avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for non-compliance. Neither the Executive nor the Employer shall intentionally take any action to accelerate or delay the payment of any amounts in any manner which would not be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code without the consent of the other party. For purposes of this Agreement, all rights to payments shall be treated as rights to receive a series of separate payments to the fullest extent allowed by Section 409A of the Code. It is also intended that the payments satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemptions from the application of Code Section 409A, including those provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (regarding short-term deferrals), Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (regarding the severance pay exception) and Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iv) (regarding reimbursements and other separation pay).View More
