All Pre-Closing Tax Returns and Straddle Period Tax Returns described in the prior sentence shall be prepared consistent with the methodologies and practices historically applied by the Company and its Subsidiaries when filing its prior year Tax Return (for purposes of this Section 7.12, the determination of Estimated Pre-Closing Taxes and Final Pre-Closing Taxes pursuant to Section 3.7, and with respect to Tax matters in Article IX, the foregoing will be deemed to be “past practice”) except as otherwise required by applicable Law or as specifically required under this Agreement. The Representative, at its sole expense, shall have reasonable access during normal business hours to those persons preparing any Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return and the information to be included in such Tax Return prior to such Tax Return’s submission to the Representative for review, as described below. With regard to both Pre-Closing Tax Returns and Straddle Period Tax Returns, at least twenty (20) days prior to the date on which each such Tax Return is due (including extensions), Parent shall submit such Tax Return to the Representative for its review, and within the ten (10) day period starting on the day such Tax Return is submitted to the Representative for its review, the Representative shall have the right to suggest modifications to such Tax Returns. With regard solely to any Pre-Closing Tax Return, described in the first sentence of this Section 7.12(b), if the Representative does not timely submit suggested modifications to Parent as described in the preceding sentence, the Representative will waive its right to suggest modifications to such Tax Return, or if the Representative does timely submit suggested modifications to Parent as described in the prior sentence, Parent shall make each such timely suggested modification to such Tax Return to the extent such suggested modification is not inconsistent with the standard set forth in the second sentence of this Section 7.12(b); provided that if the Closing Date is later than March 31, 2014, and such modification results in a material reduction in Tax liability or material increase in a Tax refund or credit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or a material increase in any amount owed by Parent to Representative under Section 7.12(f) hereof, in each case allocable to a Tax period beginning before the Closing Date, the requirements of this sentence shall also apply to Straddle Period Tax Returns. Parent shall not file any Tax Return with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period without Representative’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that if such consent is not provided Representative’s failure to consent prior to the due date (including all available extensions) for filing such Tax Return shall not prevent Parent from timely filing any such Tax Return; and provided that if the Closing Date is later than March 31, 2014, such consent right shall also apply to Pre-Closing Straddle Returns that show a material amount of Taxes for which Representative (in its capacity as such) could be liable to Parent hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including without limitation in the case Representative does not provide comments to any Tax Return or does not consent to its filing), the Representative (in its capacity as such) shall be relieved of any obligation to indemnify Parent or Surviving Corporation or their Affiliates with respect to any Losses arising from Taxes directly attributable to a particular Tax position taken by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries in filing a Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return (including pursuant to any amendments of such Returns or pursuant to any elections or changes in Tax accounting method with retroactive effect) that is inconsistent with the past practice of the Company and its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that such Tax position is required by applicable Law or a Taxing Authority or mutually agreed in writing by the Representative and Parent.

The Accounting Agent will provide daily to the Adviser the security prices used in calculating the NAV of each Portfolio, for its use in preparing exception reports for those prices on which the Adviser has a comment. Further, upon receipt of the exception reports generated by the Adviser, the Accounting Agent will diligently pursue communication regarding exception reports with the designated pricing agents; b.
