27                                  Section 409A

 

(a)                                 The parties intend that this agreement and the payments and benefits provided hereunder be interpreted and construed to be exempt from or to otherwise comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Code Section 409A”), to the extent applicable thereto. Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, this agreement shall be interpreted and construed consistent with this intent. Although the Company intends to administer this agreement so that it will be exempt from or otherwise comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, the Company does not represent or warrant that this agreement will be exempt from or otherwise comply with Code Section 409A. Neither the Company or any of its affiliates, nor any of their respective directors, officers, managers, employees or advisers shall be liable to you (or any other individual claiming a benefit through you) for any tax, interest, or penalties you might owe as a result of this agreement or otherwise. To the extent that any provision hereof is modified in order to comply with Code Section 409A, such modification shall be made in good faith and shall, to the maximum extent reasonably possible, maintain the original intent and economic benefit to you and the Company of the applicable provision.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding any provision of this agreement to the contrary, in the event that any payment to you or any benefit hereunder is made upon, or as a result of your termination of employment, and you are a “specified employee” (as that term is defined under Code Section 409A) at the time you become entitled to any such payment or benefit, and

 











 

provided further that such payment or benefit does not otherwise qualify for an applicable exemption from Code Section 409A, then no such payment or benefit shall be paid or commenced to be paid to you under this  agreement until the date that is the earlier to occur of: (i) your death, or (ii) six (6) months and one (1) day following your termination of employment (the “Delay Period”). Any payments which you would otherwise have received during the Delay Period shall be payable to you (without interest) in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day following the effective date of the termination.

 

A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits that constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of 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 agreement, references to a “ termination of employment,” “terminate your employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

 

(c)                                  To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, all expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year In which such expenses were incurred by you, (B) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (C) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.
