The Company shall bear all costs that the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Subsection (b). If, notwithstanding any reduction described in this Subsection (b), the Internal Revenue Service (147IRS148) determines that Executive is liable for the Excise Tax as a result of the receipt of amounts payable under this Agreement or otherwise as described above, then Executive shall be obligated to pay back to the Company, within thirty (30) days after a final IRS determination or, in the event that Executive challenges the final IRS determination, a final judicial determination, a portion of such amounts equal to the Repayment Amount.
