Tax Claims Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.22 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in Article VI) shall be governed exclusively by Article VI hereof.
Warranty Claims 8.1 The Supplier shall be obliged to inspect the quantity and the quality of the goods before delivery.
8.2 We shall have no duty to inspect the goods nor to notify any detected defects within a specific time period. In any event, a warranty claim will be timely made if raised prior to the expiration of the warranty period set forth in sub- clause 8.7 hereof.
8.3 We are entitled to demand, at our discretion, that the Supplier either replace defective goods or remedy the defect. The Supplier may only refuse the form of supplementary performance we have chosen on the grounds of dispropor- tionate cost where such costs would exceed the value of the goods in defect-free condition.
8.4 The Supplier warrants that the supplied goods are free of any fault or defect, whether of design, workmanship or materials.
8.5 Where supplementary performance fails, we are entitled to withdraw from the contract according to applicable law. Supplementary performance shall be deemed to have failed after one unsuccessful attempt, provided that the type of product or defect does not indicate that we are required to accept a further attempt at supplementary perfor- xxxxx.
8.6 We are entitled to remedy defects ourselves or to have them remedied at the expense of the Supplier, or to under- take shortfall purchases, where exigency or particular urgency applies and it is no longer possible to notify the Sup- plier with a deadline because of such particular urgency.
8.7 The Supplier shall be liable for any breach of the warranties if, within 18 months after the delivery date, we give no- xxxx in writing to the Supplier of any defect in the goods which shall arise from faulty design, materials or xxxxxxx- ship. This warranty period starts upon delivery of the goods and shall be suspended while the Supplier attempts supplementary performance. With respect to replaced or repaired goods, a new warranty period shall commence upon delivery of the replaced or repaired goods.
8.8 We expressly reserve the right to claim damages under applicable law. Warranty disclaimers and/or limitations of li- ability on the part of the Supplier do not apply. The foregoing warranties shall be without prejudice to any other rights and remedies available to us.
8.9 The Supplier indemnifies and holds us harmless against third party claims in connection with defective, delayed or in other manners faulty delivery, including court and attorney fees.
Product Claims The parties acknowledge that NCR Voyix, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims you or any third party relating to the Software or your possession and/or use of the Software, including, but not limited to: (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the Software fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
NO EXTRA CLAIMS The Employees and the Union shall not pursue any extra claims, either Award or over Award for the life of the Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there shall be no industrial action for the purpose of supporting or advancing claims against the company in relation to the above, until the Agreement's nominal expiry date has passed. Where any disagreement arises, the parties shall follow the Dispute Settlement Procedure contained in this Agreement.

The Managing Member is hereby directed and authorized to take whatever steps it, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary or desirable to perfect such designation, including filing any forms or documents with the IRS and taking such other action as may from time to time be required under the Treasury Regulations. The Managing Member shall remain as the Tax Matters Partner so long as it retains any ownership interests in the Company unless the Investor assumes the rights and duties of the Tax Matters Partner under the proviso to the first sentence of this paragraph.
(b) The Tax Matters Partner, in Consultation with the other Members, shall use reasonable commercial efforts to direct the defense of any claims made by any tax authority to the extent that such claims relate to the adjustment of Company items at the Company level and, in connection therewith, shall cause the Company to retain and to pay the fees and expenses of counsel and other advisors chosen by the Tax Matters Partner in Consultation with the other Members. The Tax Matters Partner shall promptly deliver to each Member a copy of all notices, communications, reports and writings received from the IRS by the Company or the Tax Matters Partner relating to or potentially resulting in an adjustment of Company items, shall promptly advise each Member of the substance of any conversations with the tax authorities in connection therewith and shall keep the Members advised of all developments with respect to any proposed adjustments that come to its attention.

The Tax Matters Partner will provide each Member with notice reasonably in advance of any meetings or conferences with respect to any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to the determination of Company items at the Company level (including any meetings or conferences with counsel or advisors to the Company with respect to such proceedings) and each Member shall have the right to participate, at its sole cost and expense, in any such meetings or conferences.
(c) The Tax Matters Partner shall not, without a Required Majority Vote, (i) except in the case of any claim by the IRS that could give rise to an indemnity claim under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document in respect of federal income taxes or the loss of federal income tax benefits (a “Tax Loss Contest”), commence a judicial action (including filing a petition as contemplated in Section 6226(a) or Section 6228 of the Code) with respect to a federal income tax matter or appeal any adverse determination of a judicial tribunal; (ii) enter into a settlement agreement with the IRS which purports to bind the Members; (iii) intervene in any action as contemplated by Section 6226(b) of the Code; (iv) file any request contemplated in Section 6227(c) of the Code; or (v) except in the case of a Tax Loss Contest, enter into an agreement extending the period of limitations as contemplated in Section 6229(b)(1)(B) of the Code. Any cost or expense incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with its duties as Tax Matters Partner shall be paid by the Company.
(d) If for any reason the IRS disregards the election made by the Company pursuant to Section 7.5(c) and commences any audit or proceeding in which it makes a claim, or proposes to make a claim, against any Member that could reasonably be expected to result in the disallowance or adjustment of any items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit (including Tax Credits) allocated to such Member by the Company, then such Member shall promptly advise the other Members of the same, and such Member, in Consultation with the other Members, shall at the expense of the Company use best efforts to convert the portion of such audit or proceeding that relates to such items into a proceeding at the level of the Company consistent with the election of the Company pursuant to Section 7.5(c). In the case of any such audit or proceeding involving the Investor for a tax period prior to or including the Flip Date, if the Investor is not successful in converting the portion of such audit or proceeding that relates to such items into a proceeding at the level of the Company, the Company shall reimburse the Investor for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in contesting such claim.
(e) If any Member intends to file, pursuant to Section 6227 of the Code, a request for an administrative adjustment of any such partnership item of the Company, or to file a petition under Sections 6226, 6228 or other Sections of the Code with respect to any such partnership item or any other tax matter involving the Company, such Member shall, at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to any such filing, notify the other Members of such intent, which notification must include a reasonable description of the contemplated action and the reasons for such action; provided, however, that this Section 7.7(e) shall not relieve such Member’s obligation to use all commercially reasonable efforts to convert a Member level proceeding into a Company level proceeding as provided in Section 7.7(d).
