Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Section 4.2 shall require (i) the Seller or any of its Affiliates or the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (x) to waive the protection of an attorney-client privilege or (y) to take any action that would result in the disclosure of any trade secrets (provided that, in the case of clause (i)(x), the disclosing party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other party, to the extent possible, with access to the relevant information in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to result in any such waiver) or (ii) the auditors and independent accountants of the Seller or any of its Affiliates or of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates to make any work papers available to any Person unless and until such Person has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such auditors or independent accountants.
Notice and Cooperation Each Party shall provide to the other Party prompt written notice of any actual or threatened infringement of the Product Trademarks in the Territory and of any actual or threatened claim that the use of the Product Trademarks in the Territory violates the rights of any Third Party. Each Party agrees to cooperate fully with the other Party with respect to any enforcement action or defense commenced pursuant to this Section 7.7.
ACCESS AND COOPERATION; DUE DILIGENCE (a) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the COMPANY will afford to the officers and authorized representatives of CTS and the Other Founding Companies access during business hours to all of the COMPANY's sites, properties, books and records and will furnish CTS with such additional financial and operating data and other information as to the business and properties of the COMPANY as CTS or the Other Founding Companies may from time to time reasonably request. The COMPANY will cooperate with CTS and the Other Founding Companies and their respective representatives, including CTS's auditors and counsel, in the preparation of any documents or other material (including the Registration Statement) which may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. CTS, NEWCO, the STOCKHOLDERS and the COMPANY will treat all information obtained in connection with the negotiation and performance of this Agreement or the due diligence investigations conducted with respect to the Other Founding Companies as confidential in accordance with the provisions of Section 14 hereof. In addition, CTS will cause each of the Other Agreements, binding each of the Other Founding Companies, to contain a provision similar to this Section 7.1 requiring each such Other Founding Company, its stockholders, directors, officers, representatives, employees and agents to keep confidential any information obtained by such Other Founding Company.
Cooperation and Coordination The Parties acknowledge and agree that it is their mutual objective and intent to minimize, to the extent feasible and legal, taxes payable with respect to their collaborative efforts under this Agreement and that they shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and coordinate with each other to achieve such objective.
Tax Cooperation The Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with one another and use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or reduce, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, Tax withholding or similar obligations in respect of royalties, milestone payments, and other payments made by the paying Party to the receiving Party under this Agreement (“Withholding Taxes”). If Withholding Taxes are imposed on any payment under this Agreement, the liability for such Withholding Taxes shall be the sole responsibility of the receiving Party, and the paying Party shall (i) deduct or withhold such Withholding Taxes from the payment made to the receiving Party, (ii) timely pay such Withholding Taxes to the proper taxing authority, and (iii) send proof of payment to the receiving Party within thirty (30) days following such payment. If and to the extent the paying Party failed to retain Withholding Taxes (e.g. because the Parties assumed that Withholding Taxes will not be imposed) or if Withholding Taxes are imposed on “deemed payments” the receiving Party shall reimburse the paying Party for any Withholding Tax obligation vis-à-vis the tax authorities. Each Party shall comply with (or provide the other Party with) any certification, identification or other reporting requirements that may be reasonably necessary in order for the paying Party to not withhold Withholding Taxes or to withhold Withholding Taxes at a reduced rate under an applicable bilateral income tax treaty. Each Party shall provide the other with commercially reasonable assistance to enable the recovery, as permitted by Applicable Laws, of Withholding Taxes or similar obligations resulting from payments made under this Agreement, such recovery to be for the benefit of the Party bearing the cost of such Withholding Taxes under this Section 16.5(d) (Tax Cooperation). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if as a result of any assignment or sublicense by the paying Party, any change in the paying Party’s tax residency, any change in the entity that originates the payment, or any failure on the part of the paying Party to comply with Applicable Laws with respect to Withholding Taxes (including filing or record retention requirements), Withholding Taxes are imposed that would not otherwise have been imposed (“Incremental Withholding Taxes”), then the paying Party shall be solely responsible for the amount of such Incremental Withholding Taxes and shall increase the amounts payable to the receiving Party so that the receiving Party receives a sum equal to the sum which it would have received had there been no such imposition of Incremental Withholding Taxes. If a Party makes a payment in accordance with the sentence above (gross-up) (“Tax Payment”) and
