 whichever of the foregoing amounts, when taking into account applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, and employment taxes, such excise tax and other applicable taxes (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rates), results in the receipt by the recipient, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the Payment, notwithstanding that all or a portion of such Payment may be subject to the excise tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting "parachute payments" is necessary so that the Payment equals the Cutback Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order: (A) cash payments of accelerated awards under the Plan shall be reduced first and in reverse chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced; (B) accelerated vesting of performance-based equity awards shall be cancelled or reduced next and in the reverse order of the date of grant for such awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted awards will be reduced first), with Full Value Awards reduced before any performance-based Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Rights are reduced; and (C) accelerated vesting of time-based equity awards shall be cancelled or reduced last and in the reverse order of the date of grant for such awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted awards will be reduced first), with Full Value Awards reduced before any time-based Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are reduced.

(b) The Company shall appoint an independent public accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder and perform the foregoing calculations. The Company shall bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. The accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and the award recipient within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or recipient). Any good faith determinations of the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and the recipient.
