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.
Tax Provisions The Policyholder and each transferee and assignee of this Policy, to the extent required by law, agree to provide GLAIC with any properly completed tax forms that are needed for GLAIC to satisfy its tax reporting obligations with respect to amounts held under this Policy. This Policy is intended to be ignored for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes. To the extent it cannot be ignored, GLAIC and the Policyholder and each transferee and assignee of this Policy agree to treat this Policy as GLAIC’s debt obligation for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.
U.S. Tax Matters For United States federal income tax purposes, the parties intend to adopt this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement as a plan of reorganization and intend that the Arrangement as set forth in the Plan of Arrangement qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Provided that the Arrangement meets the requirements of a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, each party hereto agrees to treat the Arrangement as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code for all United States federal income tax purposes, and agrees to treat this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 368 of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Lynden has insufficient funds at the Effective Date to satisfy payment obligations to Dissenting Shareholders, the payment of funds by Earthstone Acquisition to Dissenting Shareholders (an “Earthstone Acquisition Payment”) shall not be prohibited by this Section 2.7. Unless (i) an Earthstone Acquisition Payment is made, (ii) otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code, or (iii) otherwise required pursuant to applicable Laws, each of the parties shall report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (to the extent that the transaction is reportable under the Code) and shall not take any position that is contrary to such treatment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Earthstone nor Lynden makes any representation, warranty or covenant to any other party or to any Lynden Shareholder or other holder of Lynden securities (including, without limitation, stock options, warrants, debt instruments or other similar rights or instruments) or any holder of shares of Earthstone Common Stock or securities regarding the U.S. tax treatment of the Arrangement, including, but not limited to, whether the Arrangement will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code or as a tax deferred reorganization for purposes of any United States state or local income tax law.”
