Treatment of Tax Indemnity and Tax Benefit Payments In the absence of any change in Tax treatment under the Code or other applicable Tax Law,
Allocation of Tax Liability In the event that any tax is imposed on the Trust, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners in proportion to their respective Sharing Ratios. The Owner Trustee is hereby authorized to retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and then to pay, such tax as is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).
Allocation of Taxes For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that relate to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for purposes of any obligation to indemnify for Taxes under Section 4.2(b) the parties agree to use the following conventions:
Proration of Taxes For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, (a) Property Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (b) Taxes (other than Property Taxes) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.
Additional Limitation on Action and Imposition of Tax Any provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall not, without having obtained an Opinion of Counsel experienced in federal income tax matters at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Trust to the effect that such transaction does not result in a tax imposed on the Trust or any REMIC created hereunder or cause a termination of REMIC status for any REMIC created hereunder, (i) sell any assets in the Trust Estate, (ii) accept any contribution of assets after the Startup Day, (iii) allow the Servicer to foreclose upon any Home Equity Loan if such foreclosure would result in a tax on the Trust or any REMIC created hereunder or cause termination of REMIC status for any REMIC created hereunder or (iv) agree to any modification of this Agreement. To the extent that sufficient amounts cannot be so retained to pay or provide for the payment of such tax, the Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any such Prohibited Transactions of each REMIC created hereunder and use such income, to the extent necessary, to pay such tax; provided that, to the extent that any such income is paid to the Internal Revenue Service, the Trustee shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners of Class R Certificates and shall distribute such retained amounts to the Owners of Offered Certificates to the extent they are fully reimbursed and then to the Owners of the Class R Certificates. If any tax, including interest penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to tax, is imposed on the Trust, such tax shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the owners of the Class R Certificates on a pro rata basis. The Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall retain from amounts otherwise distributable to the Owners of the Class R Certificates sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to actually pay, such tax as is legally owed by the Trust (but such authorization shall not prevent the Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).
Definition of Taxes For the purposes of this Agreement, "Tax" or, collectively, "Taxes", means any and all federal, state, local and foreign taxes, assessments and other governmental charges, duties, impositions and liabilities, including taxes based upon or measured by gross receipts, income, profits, sales, use and occupation, and value added, ad valorem, transfer, franchise, withholding, payroll, recapture, employment, excise and property taxes, together with all interest, penalties and additions imposed with respect to such amounts and any obligations under any agreements or arrangements with any other person with respect to such amounts and including any liability for taxes of a predecessor entity.
General Tax Indemnity (a) The Indemnity Provider shall pay and assume liability for, and does hereby agree to indemnify, protect and defend each Property and all Indemnified Persons, and hold them harmless against, all Impositions on an After Tax Basis, and all payments pursuant to the Operative Agreements shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present and future Impositions.
Payment of Taxes and Claims; Tax Consolidation A. Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty accrues thereon, and all claims (including claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums that have become due and payable and that by law have or may become a Lien upon any of its properties or assets, prior to the time when any penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided that no such charge or claim need be paid if it is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as (1) such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor and (2) in the case of a charge or claim which has or may become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such contest proceedings conclusively operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such charge or claim.
Deduction of Tax It is not required to make any deduction for or on account of Tax from any payment it may make under any Finance Document.
Allocation of Tax Items To the extent permitted by section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) of the Treasury Regulations, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction for federal and state income tax purposes shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with the corresponding "book" items thereof; however, all items of income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to Assets with respect to which there is a difference between "book" value and adjusted tax basis shall be allocated in accordance with the principles of section 704(c) of the IRS Code and section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i) of the Treasury Regulations, if applicable. Where a disparity exists between the book value of an Asset and its adjusted tax basis, then solely for tax purposes (and not for purposes of computing Capital Accounts), income, gain, loss, deduction and credit with respect to such Asset shall be allocated among the Members to take such difference into account in accordance with section 704(c)(i)(A) of the IRS Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(4)(i). The allocations eliminating such disparities shall be made using any reasonable method permitted by the Code, as determined by the Manager.
