Subsequent Taxable Events If, within 10 years from the date on which the relevant Participating TO's Interconnection Facilities are placed in service, (i) the Interconnection Customer Breaches the covenants contained in Article 5.17.2, (ii) a "disqualification event" occurs within the meaning of IRS Notice 88-129, or (iii) this LGIA terminates and the Participating TO retains ownership of the Interconnection Facilities and Network Upgrades, the Interconnection Customer shall pay a tax gross-up for the cost consequences of any current tax liability imposed on the Participating TO, calculated using the methodology described in Article 5.17.4 and in accordance with IRS Notice 90- 60.
Post-Closing Adjustments As soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth each adjustment or payment that was not finally determined as of the Closing and showing the calculation of such adjustments and the resulting Final Purchase Price. Seller shall make its workpapers and other information available to Purchaser to review in order to confirm the adjustments shown on Seller’s draft. As soon as practicable after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, but in no event later than sixty (60) days thereafter, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written report containing any changes that Purchaser proposes to make to the Final Settlement Statement. Any failure by Purchaser to deliver to Seller the written report detailing Purchaser’s proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement within sixty (60) days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed an acceptance by Purchaser of the Final Settlement Statement as submitted by Seller. The parties shall agree with respect to the changes proposed by Purchaser, if any, no later than sixty (60) days after Seller receives from Purchaser the written report described above containing Purchaser’s proposed changes. If the Purchaser and the Seller cannot then agree upon the Final Settlement Statement, the determination of the amount of the Final Settlement Statement shall be submitted to a mutually agreed firm of independent public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”). The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and shall be enforceable against any party hereto in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser equally. The date upon which such agreement is reached or upon which the Final Purchase Price is established, shall be herein called the “Final Settlement Date.” In the event
(a) the Final Purchase Price is more than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such difference, or
(b) the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such difference, in either event by wire transfer in immediately available funds. Payment by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall be within five (5) days of the Final Settlement Date.
Straddle Period In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:
(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and
(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.
Straddle Period Taxes Seller shall, at its own expense, prepare and timely file all Tax Returns relating to all real property Taxes, personal property Taxes or similar ad valorem obligations levied (i) on the owner of the Transferred Loans for any taxable period that begins before the Cut-Off Time and ends after the Cut-Off Time and (ii) on the owner of all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets for any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (each such taxable period, a “Straddle Period”, and such Taxes, “Straddle Period Taxes”), whether imposed or assessed before or after the Cut-Off Time or the Closing Date, as appropriate. Buyers shall be liable for and shall indemnify Seller, its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending after the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and after the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Seller shall be liable for and shall indemnify Buyers, their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending before the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and ending on or before the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Any credits relating to a Straddle Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant Straddle Period ended at the Cut-Off Time or on the Closing Date, as appropriate. Any material Tax Return for a Straddle Period shall be submitted to Buyers by Seller at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of such Tax Return (taking valid extensions into account). Buyers will pay to Seller, within two (2) Business Days after the filing of any such Tax Return by Seller, an amount equal to the portion of the Straddle Period Taxes reflected on such Tax Return for which Buyers are liable under this Section 6.11. For the avoidance of doubt, Straddle Period Taxes do not include any Taxes owed by an Obligor with respect to real property securing any Transferred Loan.
Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five (5) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five (5) Business Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as is directed by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be.
Post-Closing Adjustment (a) Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser (i) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries dated as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet") showing the Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries at the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Net Worth Amount") and (ii) a schedule (the "Closing Debt Schedule") of the amount of Long Term Debt at the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Debt Amount"). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with the definitions and procedures set forth on the Post-Closing Adjustment Schedule. In connection with the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule, Purchaser shall give, and shall cause the Acquired Company and its representatives to give, to Seller and its representatives full access at all reasonable times to the books, records and other materials of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries and the personnel of, and work papers prepared by or for Purchaser, the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries or their respective accountants, including, without limitation, to such historical financial information relating to the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries as Seller may reasonably request in order to permit the timely preparation and delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule in accordance with this Section 1.05(a).
(b) Upon receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule, Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days (the "Review Period") to review such Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule and related computations of the Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries and the Closing Debt on the Closing Date. If Purchaser has accepted such Closing Balance Sheet Closing Debt Schedule in writing or has not given written notice to Seller setting forth in reasonable detail any objection of Purchaser to such Closing Balance Sheet or Closing Debt Schedule(a "Statement of Objections") prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then such Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Debt Schedule shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the Preliminary Net Worth Amount shall be deemed the Net Worth amount of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the "Final Net Worth Amount") and the Preliminary Debt Amount shall be deemed to be the amount of Long Term Debt as of the Closing Date (the "Final Debt Amount"). In addition, to the extent any portion of the Closing Balance Sheet or of the calculation of the Preliminary Net Worth Amount, of the Closing Debt Schedule or of the calculation of the Preliminary Debt Amount shall not be expressly objected to in the Statement of Objections, such matters shall be deemed to have been accepted and approved by Purchaser and shall be final and binding upon the parties for purposes hereof. In the event that Purchaser delivers a Statement of Objections during the Review Period, Purchaser and Seller shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the amount of Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries on the Closing Date within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Seller of the Statement of Objections. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement as to such amounts within such thirty (30) day period, then the matter shall be submitted to Deloitte & Touche LLP, or such other accountant as shall be mutually agreed between the parties hereto (such accountant, the "Settlement Accountant"), who shall determine the matters still in dispute and adjust the Closing Balance Sheet to reflect such determination and establish the Final Net Worth Amount and adjust the Closing Debt Schedule and establish the Final Debt Amount. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, each party will furnish to the Settlement Accountant such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Settlement Accountant may request, and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Settlement Accountant any material relating to the resolution of the disputed items and to discuss the resolution of the disputed items with the Settlement Accountant; provided, that no party shall have any ex parte discussions with the Settlement Accountant (other than after reasonable notice to the other party and such party's refusal or failure to participate). The Settlement Accountant will be instructed in performing the review that Purchaser and Seller will each be provided with copies of any and all correspondence and drafts distributed to any party, and Purchaser and Seller will be granted access to information contained in the documents made available to the Settlement Accountant by the other party. The Settlement Accountant shall determine only those matters in dispute (and based solely on the materials and other information presented by Seller and Purchaser and not by independent investigation). The Settlement Accountant shall make its determination within thirty (30) days (or as soon as practicable thereafter if the Settlement Accountant notifies the parties that it requires additional time to make such determination) following the submission of the matter to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, and such determination shall be final and binding upon Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser and Seller will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees, charges and expenses of the Settlement Accountant.
(c) In the event that the Final Net Worth Amount is greater than the Target Net Worth Amount, such excess is referred to herein as the "Excess Net Worth Amount".
(d) In the event that the Final Net Worth Amount is less than the Target Net Worth Amount, such deficiency is referred to herein as the "Net Worth Deficiency".
Tax Periods Beginning Before and Ending After the Closing Date The Company or the Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Returns of the Company for Tax periods that begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date. To the extent such Taxes are not fully reserved for in the Company’s financial statements, the Sellers shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the unreserved portion of such Taxes that relates to the portion of the Tax period ending on the Closing Date. Such payment, if any, shall be paid by the Sellers within fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice from the Company or the Purchaser that such Taxes were paid by the Company or the Purchaser for a period beginning prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period (the “Pro Rata Amount”), and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date. The Sellers shall pay to the Company with the payment of any taxes due hereunder, the Sellers’ Pro Rata Amount of the costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser or the Company in the preparation and filing of the Tax Returns. Any net operating losses or credits relating to a Tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a reasonable manner as agreed to by the parties.
Assuming Institution’s Liquidation of Remaining Shared-Loss Loans In the event that the Assuming Institution does not conduct a Portfolio Sale pursuant to Section 4.1, the Receiver shall have the right, exercisable in its sole and absolute discretion, to require the Assuming Institution to liquidate for cash consideration, any Shared-Loss Loans held by the Assuming Institution at any time after the date that is six months prior to the Termination Date. If the Receiver exercises its option under this Section 4.2, it must give notice in writing to the Assuming Institution, setting forth the time period within which the Assuming Institution shall be required to liquidate the Shared-Loss Loans. The Assuming Institution will comply with the Receiver’s notice and must liquidate the Shared-Loss Loans as soon as reasonably practicable by means of sealed bid sales to third parties, not including any of the Assuming Institution’s affiliates, contractors, or any affiliates of the Assuming Institution’s contractors. The selection of any financial advisor or other third party broker or sales agent retained for the liquidation of the remaining Shared-Loss Loans pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the prior approval of the Receiver, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
Post-Closing Payments (a) Should Grantor receive any amount arising from, or attributed to, the Grantor Interest (including without limitation amounts related to a Settlement Request) then Grantor shall promptly deliver to Participant an amount equal to such amount less:
(i) any taxes, duties or other amounts required to be paid or withheld by Grantor with respect to those amounts (including without limitation any stamp duty or tax payable with respect to the sale, transfer or other disposition of such securities or other cash or non-cash distributions and any other fees or expenses (including legal fees) paid, payable, reimbursed or reimbursable by Grantor or Administrator in connection with the sale, transfer or other disposition of such securities or other cash or non-cash distributions); and
(ii) any amounts owed by Participant to Grantor or Administrator as of the relevant time ((i) and (ii) together, the “Fees and Expenses”), to Participant pursuant to the wire instructions provided by Participant (which instructions must be with respect to a bank account opened in the name of Participant and must be provided at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of wiring).
(b) Upon receipt by Grantor of any securities or any other non-cash distributions with respect to the Grantor Interest (including the receipt of ADSs pursuant to a Settlement Request):
(i) in the case of ADSs received pursuant to a Cash Settlement Request or an ADS Settlement Request where Grantor has elected pursuant to Section 5(b)(ii) to fulfill such ADS Settlement Request in cash, Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sell such ADSs to any person whatsoever at Participant’s expense, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b) and distribute the resulting cash to Participant in accordance with Section 6(a);
(ii) in the case of ADSs received pursuant to an ADS Settlement Request other than cases in which Grantor has elected pursuant to Section 5(b)(ii) to fulfill such ADS Settlement Request in cash (or where any Settlement Request cannot be fulfilled in cash), Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer such ADSs (net of the In-Kind Fees and Expenses) to Participant at Participant’s expense, in accordance with the provisions of Section 5(b). “In-Kind Fees and Expenses” means such portion of securities or any other non-cash distributions received by Grantor with respect to the Grantor Interest the value of which is equal to the Fees and Expenses due as of the relevant date. In the case of ADSs, the value of such ADSs shall be calculated by Administrator based on the VWAP Price and in the case of other securities or other non-cash distributions, shall be calculated by Administrator on such basis as it reasonably determines. “VWAP Price” means the value obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate turnover of trading in the ADSs during the five (5) Trading Days immediately before the date Grantor receives the relevant distribution (the “VWAP Period”) by (B) the aggregate trading volume of the ADSs during the VWAP Period provided that if the VWAP Price cannot be calculated in accordance with the preceding formula the VWAP Price shall be determined by Administrator on such basis as it reasonably determines. “Trading Day” means any day on which the ADSs are traded on The NASDAQ Global Market.
Straddle Periods (i) For purposes of Section 8.1(a)(i) and 8.1(b)(i), in the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a "Straddle Period"), the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be:
(1) in the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income, or receipts, or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the taxable year ended with (and included) the Closing Date;
(2) in the case of Taxes that are based upon gross premiums deemed equal to the amount that would be payable with respect to the premium written as of the Closing Date; and
(3) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the assets of the Acquired Subsidiaries , or otherwise measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period,
(ii) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, Parent and Purchaser shall take all actions reasonably necessary to terminate the taxable year of the Acquired Subsidiaries on the Closing Date. To the extent any such taxable year of the Acquired Subsidiaries is terminated on the Closing Date, the parties hereto agree to cause the Acquired Subsidiaries to file all Tax Returns for the period including the Closing Date on the basis that the relevant taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, unless the relevant taxing authority will not accept a Tax Return filed on that basis.
