Contribution and Exchange On the terms set forth herein and subject to Section 2.2, Section 2.3, Section 2.4 and Section 2.5:
Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information The Seller and the Purchaser shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes, participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes or making representations to or furnishing information to parties subsequently desiring to purchase any part of the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Business from the Purchaser. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents in their possession relating to rulings or other determinations by Tax authorities. The Seller and the Purchaser shall make themselves (and their respective employees) available on a basis mutually convenient to both parties to provide explanations of any documents or information provided under this Section 5.09. Each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession (or in the possession of its Affiliates) relating to Tax matters relevant to the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Business for each taxable period first ending after the Closing and for all prior taxable periods for a period equal to the lesser of five years or until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. In the event that any party desires to retain any such documents or other information which is in the possession of the other party, the requesting party shall give the other party written notice indicating the documents to be retained at least 90 days prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date. Any information obtained under this Section 5.09 shall be kept confidential in accordance with Section 5.03, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding.
Cooperation and Exchange of Information Seller and Buyer shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this Article VI or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Company. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of Seller and Buyer shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by the other party in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Company for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, Seller or Buyer (as the case may be) shall provide the other party with reasonable written notice and offer the other party the opportunity to take custody of such materials.
Mergers and Exchanges The Company may be a party to (a) a merger, (b) a consolidation, or (c) an exchange or acquisition, subject to the requirements of this Operating Agreement. Consent to any such merger, consolidation, exchange or acquisition shall be by vote of the Members as set forth in Article 3.
Transfer and Exchange When Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar with a request to register the transfer thereof, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of applicable law are met, and when such Securities of a Series are presented to the Registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of other authorized denominations of Securities of the same Series, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested. To permit transfers and exchanges, upon surrender of any Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 2.4, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. If Securities are issued as Global Securities, the provisions of Section 2.15 shall apply. All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Registrar or a co-registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar or a co-registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Any exchange or transfer shall be without charge, except that the Company may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation to a transfer or exchange, but this provision shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.11, 3.6 or 8.5. The Trustee shall not be required to register transfers of Securities of any Series, or to exchange Securities of any Series, for a period of 15 days before the record date for selection for redemption of such Securities. The Trustee shall not be required to exchange or register transfers of Securities of any Series called or being called for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of such Security being redeemed in part.
Like-Kind Exchange At either party’s request, the non-requesting party will take all actions reasonably requested by the requesting party in order to effectuate all or any part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a forward or reverse like-kind exchange for the benefit of the requesting party in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and, in the case of a reverse exchange, Rev. Proc. 2000-37, including executing an instrument acknowledging and consenting to any assignment by the requesting party of its rights hereunder to a qualified intermediary or an exchange accommodation titleholder. In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the requesting party may assign its rights under this Agreement to a “qualified intermediary” or an “exchange accommodation titleholder” in order to facilitate, at no cost or expense to the other, a forward or reverse like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code; provided, however, that such assignment will not relieve the requesting party of any of its obligations hereunder. The non-requesting party will also agree to issue all closing documents, including the deed, to the applicable qualified intermediary or exchange accommodation titleholder if so directed by the requesting party prior to Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the non-requesting party incur or be subject to any liability that is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement.
NOTATIONS AND EXCHANGES If any amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, then the Trustee or the Company may, in its discretion, require the Holder of such Note to deliver such Note to the Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate notation prepared by the Company on such Note and return such Note to such Holder. Alternatively, at its discretion, the Company may, in exchange for such Note, issue, execute and deliver, and the Trustee will authenticate, in each case in accordance with Section 2.02, a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The failure to make any appropriate notation or issue a new Note pursuant to this Section 8.05 will not impair or affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.
Transfer and Exchange of Notes Upon surrender of any Note to the Company at the address and to the attention of the designated officer (all as specified in Section 18(iii)), for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the relevant name, address and other information for notices of each transferee of such Note or part thereof), within ten (10) Business Days thereafter, the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered Note. Each such new Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form of Schedule 1. Each such new Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered Note or dated the date of the surrendered Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of Notes. Notes shall not be transferred in denominations of less than $500,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of Notes, one Note may be in a denomination of less than $500,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representation set forth in Section 6.3, provided that such holder may (in reliance upon information provided by the Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld) make a representation to the effect that the purchase by such holder of any Note will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406(a) of ERISA. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state and may not be transferred or resold unless registered under the Securities Act and all applicable state securities laws or unless an exemption from the requirement for such registration is available.
Transfers and Exchanges The Warrant Agent shall transfer, from time to time, any outstanding Warrants upon the books to be maintained by the Warrant Agent for that purpose, upon surrender thereof for transfer properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and the surrendered Warrant shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. Warrants so cancelled shall be delivered by the Warrant Agent to the Company from time to time upon request. Warrants may be exchanged at the option of the holder thereof, when surrendered at the office of the Warrant Agent, for another Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations of like tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of shares of Common Stock.
REDEMPTIONS AND EXCHANGES A. Countrywide shall process, in accordance with the Trust's then current prospectus and statement of additional information, each order for the redemption of shares accepted by Countrywide. Upon its approval of such redemption transactions, Countrywide, if requested by the Trust, shall mail to the shareholder and/or dealer of record a confirmation showing trade date, number of full and fractional shares redeemed, the price per share and the total redemption proceeds. For each such redemption, Countrywide shall either: (a) prepare checks in the appropriate amounts for approval and verification by the Trust and signature by an authorized officer of Countrywide and mail the checks to the appropriate person, or (b) in the event redemption proceeds are to be wired through the Federal Reserve Wire System or by bank wire, cause such proceeds to be wired in federal funds to the bank account designated by the shareholder, or (c) effectuate such other redemption procedures which are authorized by the Trust's Board of Trustees or its then current prospectus and statement of additional information. The requirements as to instruments of transfer and other documentation, the applicable redemption price and the time of payment shall be as provided in the then current prospectus and statement of additional information, subject to such supplemental instructions as may be furnished by the Trust and accepted by Countrywide. If Countrywide or the Trust determines that a request for redemption does not comply with the requirements for redemptions, Countrywide shall promptly notify the shareholder indicating the reason therefor.
