• Allocation of Certain Taxes (a) The Equityholders and Buyer will, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, elect with the appropriate Taxing Authorities to close the Taxable periods of the Company as of and including the Closing Date. In any case where Applicable Law does not require or permit such a Taxable period of the Company to be closed as of and including the Closing Date, any Tax described in Section 8.01(a) and pertaining to a period that begins on or before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 8.02(b) hereof. (b) In the case of any Tax described in Section 8.01(a) that is based on income, sales, revenue, production or similar items, or other Taxes not described in the next sentence, such Tax pertaining or attributable to the Company for the Pre-Closing Period shall be determined assuming that the Company uses the accrual method of Tax accounting and the portion of such Tax pertaining or attributable to the Pre-Closing Period of any Straddle Period shall be determined on the basis of an interim closing of the books as of and including the Closing Date; provided, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions), other than with respect to property placed in service after the Closing, shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Period and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period. For purposes of this Section 8.02, the liability for any Taxes not described in the preceding sentences, including any real or personal property Taxes or a flat minimum dollar Tax, the total amount of such Taxes allocable to the Pre-Closing Period of a Straddle Period shall be the product of (i) such Tax for the entirety of such Straddle Period, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days for such Tax period included in the Pre-Closing Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Tax period.

• Treatment of Certain Refunds If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
