Similarly, any Profit Sharing<br \/>\nMake Up Contribution under the DCP that is required to be repaid shall be<br \/>\nrecovered by canceling such amount and any investment returns credited under the<br \/>\nDCP with respect to such cancelled amount. The Company may seek direct repayment<br \/>\nfrom the Affected Officer of any amount not so recovered and may, to the extent<br \/>\npermitted by applicable law, offset such amount against any compensation or<br \/>\nother amounts owed by the Company to the Affected Officer. In particular,<br \/>\namounts to be repaid under this Policy may be recovered by offset against the<br \/>\nafter-tax proceeds of deferred compensation payouts under the DCP at the times<br \/>\nsuch deferred compensation payouts occur under the terms of the DCP. Any amount<br \/>\nthat remains unpaid for more than 30 days after demand by the Company shall<br \/>\naccrue interest at the rate of nine percent (9%) per year, compounded at the end<br \/>\nof each calendar quarter, until paid.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_stopmodifiedupdate":true,"_modified_date":"","_cloudinary_featured_overwrite":false},"corporate_contracts_companies":[8357],"corporate_contracts_industries":[9396],"corporate_contracts_types":[9539,9546],"class_list":["post-40269","corporate_contracts","type-corporate_contracts","status-publish","hentry","corporate_contracts_companies-nike-inc","corporate_contracts_industries-consumer__clothing","corporate_contracts_types-compensation","corporate_contracts_types-compensation__incentive"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts\/40269","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/corporate_contracts"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40269"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_companies","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_companies?post=40269"},{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_industries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_industries?post=40269"},{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_types?post=40269"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
