You shall promptly provide a copy of such election to the Company. If you make and file such an election, you shall make such arrangements in accordance with Section 8 as are satisfactory to the Committee to provide for the timely payment of all applicable withholding taxes.
Section 336(e) Election If UTC determines, in its sole discretion, that one or more protective elections under Section 336(e) of the Code (each, a “Section 336(e) Election”) shall be made with respect to the Carrier Distribution, the Otis Distribution, and/or any of the Internal Distributions, the relevant SpinCo(s) shall (and shall cause any relevant member of such SpinCo Group(s) to) join with UTC and/or any relevant member of the UTC Group, as applicable, in the making of any such election and shall take any action reasonably requested by UTC or that is otherwise necessary to give effect to any such election (including making any other related election). If a Section 336(e) Election is made with respect to the Carrier Distribution, the Otis Distribution, and/or any of the Internal Distributions, then this Agreement shall be amended in such a manner as is determined by UTC in good faith to take into account such Section 336(e) Election(s), including by requiring that, in the event (a) any Contribution, Distribution, or Internal Distribution fails to have U.S. Tax-Free Status and (b) a Company (or such Company’s Group) that does not have exclusive responsibility pursuant to this Agreement for Tax-Related Losses arising from such failure actually realizes in cash a Tax Benefit from the step-up in Tax basis resulting from the relevant Section 336(e) Election(s), such Company shall pay over to the Company that has exclusive responsibility pursuant to this Agreement for such Tax-Related Losses any such Tax Benefits realized (provided, that, if such Tax-Related Losses are Shared Taxes or Taxes for which more than one Company is liable under Section 7.05(c)(i), the Company that actually realizes in cash the Tax Benefit resulting from the relevant Section 336(e) Election shall pay over to each of the other Companies responsible for such Taxes the percentage of any such Tax Benefits realized that corresponds to each such Company’s percentage share of such Taxes).
Section 83(b) Election Purchaser understands that Section 83(a) of the Code, taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount paid for the Stock and the fair market value of the Stock as of the date any restrictions on the Stock lapse. In this context, "restriction" includes the right of the Company to buy back the Stock pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 2(a) above. Purchaser understands that Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Stock is purchased, rather than when and as the Repurchase Option expires, by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (an "83(b) Election") with the Internal Revenue Service in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C within thirty (30) days from the date the Stock is purchased. Even if the fair market value of the Stock at the time of the execution of this Agreement equals the amount paid for the Stock, the 83(b) Election must be made to avoid income under Section 83(a) of the Code in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to file such an 83(b) Election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax consequences for Purchaser. Purchaser further understands that an additional copy of such 83(b) Election is required to be filed with his or her federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that it is solely Purchaser's obligation and responsibility to timely file such 83(b) Election, and neither the Company nor the Company's legal or financial advisors shall have any obligation or responsibility with respect to such filing. Purchaser acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income taxation with respect to purchase of the Stock hereunder and does not purport to be complete. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company has directed Purchaser to seek independent advice regarding the applicable provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which Purchaser may reside, and the tax consequences of Purchaser's death. Purchaser assumes all responsibility for filing an 83(b) Election and paying all taxes resulting from such election or the lapse of the restrictions on the Stock.
Initial Election The Director shall make an initial deferral election under this Agreement by filing with the Company a signed Election Form within 30 days after the Effective Date of this Agreement. The Election Form shall set forth the amount of Fees to be deferred and shall be effective to defer only Fees earned after the date the Election Form is received by the Company.
Deferral Election A Participant may elect to defer all or a specified percentage of the Compensation earned in a Plan Year by such Participant for serving as a member of the Board of any Participating Fund or as a member of any committee or subcommittee thereof. Reimbursement of expenses of attending meetings of the Board, committees of the Board or subcommittees of such committees may not be deferred. Such election shall be made by executing before the first day of such Plan Year such election notice as the Administrator may prescribe; provided, however, that upon first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan by reason of appointment to a Board, a Participant may file a Deferral Election not later than 30 days after the effective date of such appointment, which election shall apply to Compensation earned in the portion of the Plan Year commencing the day after such election is filed and ending on the last day of such Plan Year.
Section 754 Election In the event of a distribution of the Fund's property to a Member or an assignment or other transfer (including by reason of death) of Units of a Member in the Fund, at the request of a Member, the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may cause the Fund to elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, or the corresponding provision of subsequent law, to adjust the basis of the Fund's property as provided by Sections 734 and 743 of the Code.
Joint Election As a condition of the Units granted hereunder, you agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance Contributions (the “Employer NICs”), which may be payable by the Company or your Employer with respect to the Units and/or payment of the Units and issuance of Shares pursuant to the Units, the assignment or release of the Units for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Units. Without limitation to the foregoing, you agree to make an election (the “Election”), in the form specified and/or approved for such election by HMRC, that the liability for your Employer NICs payments on any such gains shall be transferred to you to the fullest extent permitted by law. You further agree to execute such other elections as may be required between you and any successor to the Company and/or your Employer. You hereby authorize the Company and your Employer to withhold such Employer NICs by any of the means set forth in Section III of the Agreement. Failure by you to enter into an Election, withdrawal of approval of the Election by HMRC or a joint revocation of the Election by you and the Company or your Employer, as applicable, shall be grounds for the forfeiture and cancellation of the Units, without any liability to the Company or your Employer.

The Seller shall provide the Buyer with such information as the Buyer reasonably requests in order to prepare the Section 338 Forms within thirty (30) days of the Buyer’s request for such information.
(c) The aggregate consideration payable under this Agreement (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.4), Liabilities of the Company and other relevant items shall be allocated in accordance with Section 338(b)(5) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. The Buyer shall prepare such allocation (the “Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule”) and shall deliver the Section 338(h)(10) Allocation Schedule to the Seller within five (5) days after the final determination of Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.4.
LIBOR Election (i) Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as Borrowers have not received a notice from Agent (which notice Agent may elect to give or not give in its discretion unless Agent is directed to give such notice by the Required Lenders, in which case, it shall give the notice to Borrowers), after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to terminate the right of Borrowers to exercise the LIBOR Option during the continuance of such Event of Default, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. at least 1 Business Day prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the “LIBOR Deadline”). Notice of Borrowers’ election of the LIBOR Option for a permitted portion of the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. on the same day). Promptly upon its receipt of each such LIBOR Notice, Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the affected Lenders.
(ii) Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers. In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, each Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Agent or any Lender as a result of (A) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (B) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (C) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any LIBOR Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, or expenses, “Funding Losses”). A certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to Borrowers setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within 30 days of the date of its receipt of such certificate. If a payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period would result in a Funding Loss, Agent may, in its sole discretion at the request of Borrowers, hold the amount of such payment as cash collateral in support of the Obligations until the last day of such Interest Period and apply such amounts to the payment of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan on such last day, it being agreed that Agent has no obligation to so defer the application of payments to any LIBOR Rate Loan and that, in the event that Agent does not defer such application, Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any resulting Funding Losses.
(iii) Unless Agent, in its sole discretion, agrees otherwise, Borrowers shall have not more than 5 LIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any given time. Borrowers may only exercise the LIBOR Option for proposed LIBOR Rate Loans of at least $1,000,000.
REMIC Election (a) The Depositor hereby instructs and authorizes the Trustee to make an appropriate election to treat the Trust Fund as a REMIC. This Agreement shall be construed so as to carry out the intention of the parties that the Trust Fund be treated as a REMIC at all times prior to the date on which the Trust Fund is terminated. The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "startup day" of the REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The "regular interests" (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code) in the REMIC shall consist of the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-R Certificate), the Class M Certificates and the Class B Certificates, and the "residual interest" (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code) in the REMIC shall consist of the Residual Interest, and all such interests shall be designated as such on the Startup Day. Solely for the purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the "latest possible maturity date" by which the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of Certificates representing a regular interest in the REMIC would be reduced to zero is the Distribution Date immediately following the latest scheduled maturity of any Mortgage Loan.
(b) The "tax matters person" with respect to the Trust Fund for purposes of the REMIC provisions shall be the beneficial owner of the Class A-R Certificate; provided, however, that such Holder of a Class A-R Certificate, by its acceptance thereof, irrevocably appoints the Servicer as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act as "tax matters person" with respect to the Trust Fund for purposes of the REMIC provisions.
(c) It is intended that the Trust Fund shall constitute, and that the affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so as to qualify the Trust Fund as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the Servicer covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Servicer is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of the Trust Fund and the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate and that in such capacity it shall:
(i) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Return (Form 1066) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year with respect to the Trust Fund, using the calendar year as the taxable year and the accrual method of accounting, containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby;
(ii) within thirty days of the Closing Date, shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title, address, and telephone number of the person that the holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto (and the Servicer shall act as the representative of the Trust Fund for this purpose), together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and shall update such information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code;
(iii) make or cause to be made an election, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to be treated as a REMIC, and make the appropriate designations, if applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.04 on the federal tax return of the Trust Fund for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state law);
(iv) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns or reports, or furnish or cause to be furnished by telephone, mail, publication or other appropriate method such information, as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of any original issue discount;
(v) provide information necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, or a pass-through entity in which a Disqualified Organization is the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(vi) ensure that federal, state or local income tax or information returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such other person as may be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules; and
(vii) maintain such records relating to the Trust Fund, as may be required by the Code and, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information. [END OF ARTICLE II]
