Tax and Accounting Consequences (a) It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. The parties hereto adopt this Agreement as a "plan of reorganization" within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Income Tax Regulations.
Tax Consequences of Payments For all Tax purposes and to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law, the parties hereto shall treat any payment made pursuant to this Agreement as a capital contribution or a distribution, as the case may be, immediately prior to the Distribution. If the receipt or accrual of any indemnity payment under this Agreement causes, directly or indirectly, an increase in the taxable income of the recipient under one or more applicable Tax Laws, such payment shall be increased so that, after the payment of any Taxes with respect to the payment, the recipient thereof shall have realized the same net amount it would have realized had the payment not resulted in taxable income. To the extent that Taxes for which any party hereto (the indemnifying party) is required to pay another party (the indemnified party) pursuant to this Agreement may be deducted or credited in determining the amount of any other Taxes required to be paid by the indemnified party (for example, state Taxes which are permitted to be deducted in determining federal Taxes), the amount of any payment made to the indemnified party by the indemnifying party shall be decreased by taking into account any resulting reduction in other Taxes of the indemnified party. If such a reduction in Taxes of the indemnified party occurs following the payment made to the indemnified Party with respect to the relevant indemnified Taxes, the indemnified party shall promptly repay the indemnifying party the amount of such reduction when actually realized. If the Tax benefit arising from the foregoing reduction of Taxes described in this Section 4.4 is subsequently decreased or eliminated, then the indemnifying party shall promptly pay the indemnified party the amount of the decrease in such Tax benefit.
Tax and Accounting Treatment Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for purposes of U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise taxes, and for accounting purposes, to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are owned by Seller in the absence of a Default by Seller. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by applicable Requirements of Law or GAAP.
PRESERVATION OF TAX AND ACCOUNTING TREATMENT Except as contemplated by this Agreement or the Registration Statement, after the Funding and Consummation Date, TCI shall not and shall not permit any of its subsidiaries to undertake any act that would jeopardize the tax-free status of the organization, including without limitation:
Tax Consequences and Withholding No Shares will be delivered to you in settlement of vested Units unless you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company for payment of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the delivery of the Shares. You hereby authorize the Company (or any Affiliate) to withhold from payroll or other amounts payable to you any sums required to satisfy such withholding tax obligations, and otherwise agree to satisfy such obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section 14 of the Plan. You may elect to satisfy such withholding tax obligations by having the Company withhold a number of Shares that would otherwise be issued to you in settlement of the Units and that have a fair market value equal to the amount of such withholding tax obligations by notifying the Company of such election prior to the Vesting Date.
Accounting, Tax and Regulatory Matters Each Owner and the Company, -------------------------------------- jointly and severally, represents and warrants to Premiere that neither the Company, any Owner nor any Affiliate thereof has taken or agreed to take any action or has any knowledge of any fact or circumstance that is reasonably likely to (i) prevent the Merger from qualifying for pooling-of-interests accounting treatment or as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, or (ii) materially impede or delay receipt of any consents referred to in Section 5.6 of the Uniform Terms or result in the imposition of a condition or restriction of the type referred to in the last sentence of such Section.
Redemption for Changes in Withholding Taxes The Issuers may, at their option, redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes then outstanding, in each case at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), and all Additional Amounts, if any, then due and which shall become due on the applicable redemption date as a result of the redemption or otherwise if, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, or the official written interpretation of such laws, which change or amendment is publicly announced and becomes effective after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date), the Issuers are, or on the next Interest Payment Date in respect of the Notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts or if, after the Issue Date (or, if the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction became a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction on a date after the Issue Date, after such later date), any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions that constitutes a Change in Tax Law, whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Issuers, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material probability that the Issuers will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes (each such action, change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation, a “Tax Action”) (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described in clause (ii) below to such effect is delivered to the First Lien Trustee), and, in each case, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to the Issuers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the appointment of a new paying agent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action will be given (a) earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuers would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Tax Action and (b) unless, at the time such notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to any redemption of Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Issuers shall deliver to the First Lien Trustee (i) an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Issuers are entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of redemption have occurred and (ii) an opinion of independent tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the First Lien Trustee to the effect that the Issuers are entitled to redeem the Notes as a result of a Change in Tax Law or a Tax Action. The First Lien Trustee will accept such Officers’ Certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders.
Statements of Reconciliation after Change in Accounting Principles If, as a result of any change in accounting principles and policies from those used in the preparation of the Historical Financial Statements, the consolidated financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries delivered pursuant to Section 5.1(b) or 5.1(c) will differ in any material respect from the consolidated financial statements that would have been delivered pursuant to such subdivisions had no such change in accounting principles and policies been made, then, together with the first delivery of such financial statements after such change, one or more statements of reconciliation for all such prior financial statements in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent;
Tax Representations and Tax Withholding You hereby acknowledge that you have reviewed with your own tax advisors the federal, state and local tax consequences of receiving the Restricted Shares. You hereby represent to the Company that you are relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company, its Affiliates or any of their respective agents. If, in connection with the Restricted Shares, the Company is required to withhold any amounts by reason of any federal, state or local tax, such withholding shall be effected in accordance with Section 16 of the Plan.
Redemption Upon Changes in Withholding Taxes The Offered Securities may be redeemed, as a whole but not in part, at the option of the Company, upon not less than 30 nor more than 90 days notice (which notice shall be irrevocable), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date and Additional Amounts (as defined in Section 3.2), if any, if as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of Switzerland or the United States, as applicable, or any political subdivision thereof or therein having the power to tax (a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws, including any action taken by a taxing authority or a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction (regardless of whether such action or such holding is with respect to the Company or Guarantor), which amendment or change is announced or becomes effective after the date the Offered Securities are issued, the Guarantor or the Company has become, or there is a material probability that it will become, obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Securities of such series, and such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of commercially reasonable measures available to Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be; provided, however, that (a) no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts, and (b) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption described in this paragraph, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee (i)(A) a certificate signed by two Officers of the Company stating that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Company taking commercially reasonable measures available to it or (B) a certificate signed by two Officers of the Guarantor stating that the obligation to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by Guarantor taking commercially reasonable measures available to it, and (ii) a written opinion of independent legal counsel to the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, of recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or there is a material probability that it will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a change, amendment, official interpretation or application described above and that the Guarantor or the Company, as the case may be, cannot avoid the payment of such Additional Amounts by taking commercially reasonable measures available to it.
