Cap on Payments Sample Clauses

A Cap on Payments clause sets a maximum limit on the total amount one party is required to pay under a contract. This cap may apply to specific types of payments, such as damages, indemnities, or overall liabilities, and is often expressed as a fixed sum or a percentage of the contract value. By establishing a clear upper boundary on financial exposure, this clause protects parties from unlimited or unforeseen liabilities, ensuring predictability and managing risk in contractual relationships.

Cap on Payments. (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any Payment would be subject to the Excise Tax, then the amounts payable under this Agreement shall be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount (the “Cap Reduction”), only if the imposition of the Cap Reduction would result in the Executive receiving a larger Payment (net of all taxes on such Payment) than if the Cap Reduction had not been imposed. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing the payments and benefits under the following sections in the following order: (1) Section 6(a)(i)(B), (2) Section 6(a)(i)(C), (3) Section 6(a)(i)(A)(5) and (4) Section 6(a)(ii). For purposes of reducing the Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under this Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced. If the reduction of the amount payable under this Agreement would not result in a reduction of the Parachute Value of all Payments to the Safe Harbor Amount, no amounts payable under the Agreement shall be reduced pursuant to this Section 9(a). (b) All determinations required to be made under this Section 9 shall be made by Deloitte Tax, LLP, or such other certified public accounting firm as may be designated by the Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Executive within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from the Executive that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company. In the event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change of Control, the Executive shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder (which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive.

Cap on Payments. If Independent Tax Counsel shall determine that the aggregate payments made to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement and any other payments to the Executive from the Company which constitute “parachute payments” as defined in Section 280G of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) (“Parachute Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the total amount of payments to the Executive shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no excise tax would be imposed on any of the payments (the “Cap”). It is intended hereby that the total amount of payments to the Executive would never equal or exceed three times the Executive’s “base amount” as defined in Section 280G of the Code and to the extent they could, said payments shall be cut back to meet the Cap. For purposes of this paragraph 4, “Independent Tax Counsel” shall mean a lawyer, a certified public accountant with a regionally recognized accounting firm, or a compensation consultant with a regionally recognized actuarial and benefits consulting firm, with expertise in the area of executive compensation tax law, who shall be selected by the Executive and shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company, and whose fees and disbursements shall be paid by the Company.”

In addition, the Executive hereby waives the vesting and payment and any other rights with respect to those unvested LTIP OP Units as set forth on Schedule I (as defined in the Merger Agreement). For purposes of clarification, the parties agree that nothing herein is intended to limit (1) any payments that may be due to the Executive under Sections 3(c)(iii), 3(c)(v), 3(c)(vii), 4, 5 or 6 of the Severance Agreement, (2) payment of the Special Outperformance LTIP or (3) non-cash benefits (other than as provided above) such as the vesting or exercise of restricted stock or other stock rights, stock loan forgiveness, profits interests in the operating partnership, partnership units and assignment of split dollar life insurance policies. The Executive agrees that the Employer may in its discretion pay, in cash or a note, the Severance Payments during calendar year 2006." Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Termination Event occurs, the amendment set forth herein to Section 3 of the Severance Agreement automatically will be deemed to be of no force and effect and will be void ab initio, and the original provisions of Section 3 of the Severance Agreement will remain in effect. 5. Section 5 of the Severance Agreement is hereby amended to include the addition of the following sentence: "Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth herein, in the event tax counsel selected by the Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Employer determines that the aggregate amount of all Payments the Executive will receive would equal or exceed 105% of the Reduced Amount, the Severance Amount will be reduced by the amount necessary so that the Payments are equal to the Reduced Amount.
