Value Added Tax (a) All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (c) below, if VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party).
(b) If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under a Finance Document, and any Party (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority which it reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply.
(c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Finance Party against all VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that neither it nor any other member of any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes is entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT.

(b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the Supplier Party) to any other Finance Party (the Recipient) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the Subject Party) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier Party (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT.

DAC TAX The Company and the Reinsurer agree to the DAC Tax Election pursuant to Section 1.848-2(g)(8) of the Income Tax Regulations effective December 29, 1992, under Section 848 of the Internal Revenue code of 1986, as amended, whereby:
12.1.1 The party with the net positive consideration for this Agreement for each taxable year will capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses with respect to this Agreement without regard to the general deductions limitation of Section 848(c)(1); and
12.1.2 Both parties agree to exchange information pertaining to the amount of net consideration under this Agreement each year to ensure consistency. To achieve this, the Company shall provide the Reinsurer with a schedule of its calculation of the net considerations for all reinsurance agreements in force between them for a taxable year by no later than May 1 of the succeeding year. The Reinsurer shall advise the Company no later than May 31, otherwise the amounts will be presumed correct and shall be reported by both parties in their respective tax returns for such tax year. If the Reinsurer contests the Company's calculation of net consideration, the parties agree to act in good faith to resolve any differences within thirty (30) days of the date the Reinsurer submits its alternative calculation and report the amounts agreed upon in their respective tax returns for such year. The term "net consideration" will refer to the net consideration as defined in Regulation Section 1.848-2(f). The Company and the Reinsurer will report the amount of net consideration in their respective federal income tax returns for the previous calendar year. The Company and the Reinsurer will also attach a schedule to their respective federal income tax returns which identifies the Agreement as a reinsurance agreement for which the DAC Tax Election under Regulation Section 1.848.2 (g) (8) has been made. This DAC Tax Election will be effective for all years for which this Agreement remains in effect. The Company and the Reinsurer represent and warrant that they are subject to U.S. taxation under either the provisions of subchapter L of Chapter 1 or the provisions of subpart F of subchapter N of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Goods and Services Tax (GST (a) For the purposes of clause 9:
the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form
1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,
2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details),
3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,
4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or
5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only). Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information. Also see Special rules for partnerships, earlier. The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all United States account holders that are specified United States persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.
Federal Excise Tax A. Any taxes (including (i) any taxes based on or imposed on, in whole or in part, the Reinsurer's net income or (ii) any excise taxes under Section 4371 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") with respect to the business covered under this Contract) imposed by any governmental entity in respect of amounts paid to the Reinsurer under this Contract will be the responsibility of the Reinsurer and the Company shall have no liability therefor. The Reinsurer will allow the Company to deduct, for the purpose of paying Federal Excise Tax the applicable percentage of any premium payable hereon (as imposed under Section 4371 of the Code) to the extent such premium is subject to such tax. Without limiting the foregoing, the Reinsurer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Insured against any excise taxes imposed under Section 4371 of the Code with respect to the business covered under this Contract except to the extent any penalties applied or interest arising from the Company's negligence.
B. In the event of any return of premium becoming due hereunder the Reinsurer shall deduct the applicable percentage from the return premium payable hereon and the Company or its agent should take steps to recover the tax from the United States Government.
GST (a) Words or expressions used in this clause 24.2 that are defined in the GST Law have the same meaning in this clause 24.2.
(b) Any consideration to be paid or provided under or in connection with this document, for a supply made or to be made under or in connection with this document, does not include an amount on account of GST.
(c) To the extent that any supply made under or in connection with this document is a taxable supply, the consideration payable or to be provided for that supply but for the application of this clause 24.2 (GST Exclusive Amount) must be increased by an additional amount equal to the GST that the supplier is or becomes liable to pay in respect of that taxable supply (GST Amount), so that the supplier retains, after deducting the GST Amount, the GST Exclusive Amount.
(d) The GST Amount must be paid by the recipient of the taxable supply to the supplier without set-off, deduction or requirement for demand, at the same time as the GST Exclusive Amount is required to be paid or provided under this document, except the recipient need not pay unless the recipient has received a tax invoice (or an adjustment note) prior to any payment for that taxable supply. Where the GST is not referable to an actual payment then it will be payable within ten (10) Business Days of a tax invoice being issued by the party making the supply.
(e) If a payment to a party under this document is a reimbursement or indemnification, calculated by reference to a Loss incurred by that party, then the payment will be reduced by the amount of any input tax credit to which that party is entitled for that Loss. That party is assumed to be entitled to a full input tax credit unless it proves, before the date on which the payment must be made, that its entitlement is otherwise and, if a taxable supply, must be increased by the GST payable in relation to the supply, and a tax invoice must be provided by the party being reimbursed or indemnified.
(f) If a party is a member of a GST group, references to GST that the party must pay, and to input tax credits to which the party is entitled, include GST that the representative member of the GST group must pay and input tax credits to which the representative member is entitled.
(g) If the GST Law should change such that the Service Provider is unable to claim input tax credits for acquisitions made by the Service Provider in the course of making supplies under this document (that is, acquisitions that were creditable acquisitions at the date of this document), then the consideration payable under this document will be adjusted to enable the Service Provider to recover its resulting net increased costs.
Net Payments; Taxes (a) All payments made by any Credit Party hereunder will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income, net profits or any franchise tax based on net income or net profits, and any branch profits tax of a Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein or due to failure to provide documents under Section 4.04(b), all such taxes “Excluded Taxes”) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges to the extent imposed on taxes other than Excluded Taxes (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes” and “Taxation” shall be applied accordingly). The Borrower will furnish to the Facility Agent within 45 days after the date of payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.
(b) Each Lender agrees (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions and subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to file any certificate or document or to furnish to the Borrower any information as reasonably requested by the Borrower that may be necessary to establish any available exemption from, or reduction in the amount of, any Taxes; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.04(b) shall require a Lender to disclose any confidential information (including, without limitation, its tax returns or its calculations). The Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Lender for Taxes attributed to such Lender’s failure to provide the required documents under this Section 4.04(b).
(c) If the Borrower pays any additional amount under this Section 4.04 to a Lender and such Lender determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that it has actually received or realized in connection therewith any refund or any reduction of, or credit against, its Tax liabilities in or with respect to the taxable year in which the additional amount is paid (a “Tax Benefit”), such Lender shall pay to the Borrower an amount that such Lender shall, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, determine is equal to the net benefit, after tax, which was obtained by such Lender in such year as a consequence of such Tax Benefit; provided, however, that (i) any Lender may determine, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith consistent with the policies of such Lender, whether to seek a Tax Benefit, (ii) any Taxes that are imposed on a Lender as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of any tax credit carryover or carryback of such Lender that otherwise would not have expired) of any Tax Benefit with respect to which such Lender has made a payment to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) shall be treated as a Tax for which the Borrower is obligated to indemnify such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.04 without any exclusions or defenses and (iii) nothing in this Section 4.04(c) shall require any Lender to disclose any confidential information to the Borrower (including, without limitation, its tax returns).
