Section 409a Contract Clauses (6,052)

Section 409a. a. Although the Company does not guarantee the tax treatment of any payments or benefits under this Award, the intent of the Company is that the payments and benefits under this Award be exempt from, or comply with, Code Section 409A and to the maximum extent permitted the Award Terms and the award letter shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. In no event whatsoever shall the Company, the Related Companies, their affiliates or their respective officers, direc...tors, employees or agents be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on a Participant by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.b. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Award to the contrary, if at the time of a Participant's "separation from service" (within the meaning of Code Section 409A), the Participant is a "Specified Employee," then the Company will defer the payment of any nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A payable upon separation from service (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Participant) until the date that is six (6) months following separation from service or, if earlier, the earliest other date as is permitted under Code Section 409A (and any amounts that otherwise would have been paid during this deferral period will be paid in a lump sum on the day after the expiration of the six (6) month period or such shorter period, if applicable). A Participant will be a "Specified Employee" for purposes of this Award if, on the date of the Participant's separation from service, the Participant is an individual who is, under the method of determination adopted by the Company designated as, or within the category of employees deemed to be, a "Specified Employee" within the meaning and in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i). The Company shall determine in its sole discretion all matters relating to who is a "Specified Employee" and the application of and effects of the change in such determination. c. Notwithstanding anything in these Award Terms, the award letter or elsewhere to the contrary, a termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Award providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute "non-qualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of a Participant's employment unless such termination is also a "separation from service" within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Award, references to a "termination," "termination of employment" or like terms shall mean "separation from service" and the date of such separation from service shall be the date of termination for purposes of any such payment or benefits.

Section 409a. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payment and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any ...taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Grantee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefit payable hereunder that constitutes a deferral of compensation under Code Section 409A shall be subject to the following: (a) no amount or benefit that is payable upon a termination of employment or services from the Company shall be payable unless such termination also meets the requirements of a "separation from service" under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), and references in the Agreement to "termination", "termination of employment" or like terms shall mean a "separation from service;" (b) in the event that any payment to the Grantee or any benefit hereunder is made upon, or as a result of, the Grantee's termination of employment, and the Grantee is a "specified employee" (as that term is defined under Section 409A of the Code) at the time the Grantee becomes entitled to any such payment or benefit, and provided further that such payment or benefit does not otherwise qualify for an applicable exemption from Section 409A of the Code, then no such payment or benefit will be paid or commenced to be paid to the Grantee under this Agreement until the date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the Grantee's death or (ii) six months and one day following the Grantee's termination of employment (the "Delay Period"). Any payments which the Grantee would otherwise have received during the Delay Period will be payable to the Grantee in a lump sum on the date that is six months and one day following the effective date of the termination, and any remaining compensation and benefits due under the Agreement shall be paid or provided as otherwise set forth herein; 5 (c) whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period, the actual date of payment within such specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company, and the Grantee shall have no right (directly or indirectly) to determine the year in which such payment is made. In the event a payment period straddles two consecutive calendar years, the payment shall be made in the later of such calendar years; (d) each separately identified amount and each installment payment to which the Grantee is entitled to payment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code; and (e) the payment of any compensation or benefit may not be accelerated except to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.

Section 409a. (a) It is the intent of the Company that the payments and benefits under this Agreement shall comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations and guidance thereunder (collectively, "Section 409A") and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance with, or be exempt from, Section 409A.

Section 409a. (a) General. To the extent that the requirements of Section 409A are applicable to this Award, it is the intention of both the Company and Participant that the benefits and rights to which Participant could be entitled pursuant to this Agreement comply with or be exempt from Section 409A, and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with that intention.

Any payment or benefit delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid out or provided in a single lump sum at the end of such required delay period in order to catch up to the original payment schedule. (ii) For purposes of this provision, the determination of whether Participant is a "Specified Employee" at the time of his or her separation from service from the Company (or any person or entity with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Section 414(b) or Section 414(c) of the Code, applying the 20 percent common ownership standard) shall be made in accordance with the rules under Section 409A. (d) No Acceleration of Payments. Neither the Company nor Participant, individually or in combination, may accelerate any payment or benefit that is subject to Section 409A, except in compliance with Section 409A and the provisions of this Agreement, and no amount that is subject to Section 409A shall be paid prior to the earliest date on which it may be paid without violating Section 409A. (e) Termination of Employment. Any provisions of this Agreement that provide for payment of compensation that is subject to Section 409A and that has payment triggered by Participant's termination of employment other than on account of death shall be deemed to provide for payment that is triggered only by Participant's "separation from service" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section §1.409A-1(h).

Section 409a. (a) If when Executive's employment terminates, the Executive is a "specified employee," as defined in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), then despite any provision of this Agreement or other plan or agreement to the contrary, Executive will not be entitled to the payments until the earliest of: (a) the date that is at least six (6) months after Executive's separation from service, as defined in Code Section 409A, for reasons other than Executive's death, (b) the date of Executive's death, or (c) any... earlier date that does not result in additional tax or interest to Executive under Code Section 409A.
