Tax Covenants (a) Without the prior written consent of Buyer, Seller (and, prior to the Closing, the Teco Subsidiaries, and their respective Affiliates and Representatives) shall not, to the extent it may affect, or relate to, the Teco Subsidiaries, make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Buyer or the Teco Subsidiaries in respect of any Post-Closing Tax Period. Seller agrees that Buyer is to have no liability for any Tax resulting from any action of the Seller, the Teco Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates and Representatives, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer (and, after the Closing Date, the Teco Subsidiaries) against any such Tax or reduction of any Tax asset for periods prior to the Closing Date. (b) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be borne and paid by Seller when due. Seller shall, on behalf of the Seller and at the Seller’s own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Buyer shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary). (c) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Teco Subsidiaries after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law) and without a change of any election or any accounting method and shall be submitted by Buyer to Seller (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Seller, supporting documentation) at least 45 days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Tax Return. If Seller objects to any item on any such Tax Return, it shall, within ten days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify Buyer in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of objection shall be duly delivered, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith and use their reasonable best efforts to resolve such items. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach such agreement within ten days after receipt by Buyer of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm selected by Buyer and reasonably acceptable to Seller (the “Accounting Referee”) and any determination by the Accounting Referee shall be final. The Accounting Referee shall resolve any disputed items within twenty days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Accounting Referee is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Buyer and then amended to reflect the Accounting Referee’s resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. The preparation and filing of any Tax Return of the Teco Subsidiaries that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be exclusively within the control of Buyer.
General Tax Covenant The Recipient shall not take any action or fail to take any action which would adversely affect the exclusion of interest on the Infrastructure Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes;
