Annual Tax Information The Managers shall cause the Company to deliver to the Member all information necessary for the preparation of the Member’s federal income tax return.
Additional Tax Matters (a) As of the Closing Date, CSK shall cause all Tax allocation, Tax sharing, Tax reimbursement and similar arrangements or agreements applicable to the WISCO Business between CSK and any Affiliates, on the one hand, and any of the WISCO Contributed Subsidiaries, on the other, to be extinguished and terminated with respect to such WISCO Contributed Subsidiaries and any rights or obligations existing under any such agreement or arrangement to be no longer enforceable, except to the extent reflected on the Final Working Capital Statement. (b) After the Closing Date, the Company will cause appropriate Employees of the WISCO Contributed Subsidiaries to prepare usual and customary Tax Return packages with respect to the Tax Period beginning January 1, 1999 and ending as of the Closing Date. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Tax Return packages to be delivered to CSK on or before March 1, 2000, but in any event not later that May 1, 2000. (c) CSK and G-P agree that the Company will acquire hereunder substantially all of the property used in the WISCO Business and that in connection therewith the Company will employ individuals who immediately before the Closing Date were employed in such trade or business by WISCO or the WISCO Contributed Subsidiaries. Accordingly, pursuant to the Alternate Procedure permitted by Rev. Proc. 96-60, 1996-2 C.B. 399, provided that the applicable CSK Party makes available to the Company all necessary payroll records for the calendar year that includes the Closing Date, the Company will furnish a Form W-2 to each Employee employed by the Company who had been employed by the WISCO Business, disclosing all wages and other compensation paid for such calendar year, and Taxes withheld therefrom, and WISCO and the applicable CSK Party will be relieved of the responsibility to do so. (d) If the Company or any WISCO Contributed Subsidiary receives a refund with respect to Taxes of any WISCO Contributed Subsidiary attributable to a Pre-Closing Period (other than a Tax refund accrued as an asset on the Final Working Capital Statement) or a refund of Taxes accrued as a liability on the Final Working Capital Statement, the Company shall pay, within the thirty (30) days following the receipt of such Tax refund, the amount of such Tax refund (reduced by the amount of any Taxes it incurs or will incur as a result of its accrual or receipt of such refund or any interest thereon), to CSK. If CSK receives a Tax refund with respect to Taxes of any WISCO Contributed Subsidiary attributable to any Post-Closing Period or any Tax refund accrued as an asset on the Final Working Capital Statement, CSK will pay, within thirty (30) days following the receipt of such refund, the amount of such Tax refund (reduced by the amount of any Taxes it incurs or will incur as a result of its accrual or receipt of such refund or any interest thereon), to the Company. In the case of any refund with respect to Taxes of a WISCO Contributed Subsidiary attributable to a Straddle Period, the Tax refund shall be apportioned between Pre-Closing Periods and Post-Closing Periods in accordance with the principles of Section 8.1(c) hereof; provided that to the extent any Tax refund for a Straddle Period was accrued on the Final Working Capital Statement, such refund shall be for the account of the Company.
Goods and Services Tax (GST (a) For the purposes of clause 9:
Income Tax Matters (a) In order to comply with all applicable federal or state income tax laws or regulations, the Company may take such action as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable federal or state payroll, withholding, income or other taxes, which are the sole and absolute responsibility of Grantee, are withheld or collected from Grantee. (b) The Company shall reasonably determine the amount of any federal, state, local or other income, employment, or other taxes which the Company or any of its affiliates may reasonably be obligated to withhold with respect to the grant, vesting, or other event with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. The Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units at the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock (determined as of the date of measurement of the amount of income subject to such withholding) to satisfy the minimum amount of any such withholding obligations that arise with respect to the vesting of such Restricted Stock Units. The Company may take such action(s) without notice to the Grantee, and the Grantee shall have no discretion as to the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations in such manner. If, however, any withholding event occurs with respect to the Restricted Stock Units other than upon the vesting of such Restricted Stock Units, or if the Company for any reason does not satisfy the withholding obligations with respect to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units as provided above in this Section 8(b), the Company shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the Grantee and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Grantee the minimum amount of any such withholding obligations. (c) The Restricted Stock Unit Award evidenced by this Agreement, and the issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Grantee in settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units, is intended to be taxed under the provisions of Section 83 of the Code, and is not intended to provide and does not provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning of Section 409A(d) of the Code. Therefore, the Company intends to report as includible in the Grantee’s gross income for any taxable year an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock covered by the Restricted Stock Units that vest (if any) during such taxable year, determined as of the date such Restricted Stock Units vest. In furtherance of this intended tax treatment, all vested Restricted Stock Units shall be automatically settled and payment to the Grantee shall be made as provided in Section 1(c) hereof, but in no event later than March 15th of the year following the calendar year in which such Restricted Stock Units vest. The Grantee shall have no power to affect the timing of such settlement or payment. The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement, without the Grantee’s consent, to the extent it reasonably determines from time to time that such amendment is necessary in order to achieve the purposes of this Section.
Other Tax Matters (i) No deficiency with respect to a material amount of Taxes has been proposed, asserted or assessed against the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries and remains unpaid, except for such deficiencies that are being contested, or that will be contested, in each case, in good faith, and, in each case, for which adequate reserves have been established on the books and records of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is currently the subject of an audit or other examination relating to the payment of material Taxes of the Company or such Company Subsidiary by a Taxing Authority of any nation, state or locality nor has the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries received any written notices from any Taxing Authority that such an audit or examination is pending, or that the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries was required to file any Tax Return that was not filed. (ii) Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is presently contesting any material Tax liability of the Company or any Company Subsidiary before any court, tribunal or agency. (iii) All material Taxes that the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries is (or was) required by Applicable Law to withhold or collect in connection with amounts paid or owing to any employee, independent contractor, creditor, stockholder, member or other third party have been duly withheld or collected, and have been paid over to the proper authorities to the extent due and payable. (iv) The Company and each of the Company Subsidiaries has complied in all material respects with all information reporting (and related withholding) and record retention requirements. (v) Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary has waived any statute of limitations with respect to Taxes nor agreed to any extension of time with respect to a Tax assessment or deficiency. (vi) There are no liens for material Taxes (except Taxes not yet due and payable) on any of the assets of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries. (vii) None of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any closing agreement, private letter rulings, technical advance memoranda, offer in compromise, or any other agreement with any Taxing Authority, in each case that could have a materially adverse effect after the Closing Date. (viii) Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries is a party to or is bound by any Tax sharing, allocation or indemnification agreement or arrangement (other than such an agreement or arrangement exclusively between or among the Company and the Company Subsidiaries). (ix) Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries has been, within the past two years or otherwise as part of a “plan (or series of related transactions)” within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code of which the Merger is also a part, a “distributing corporation” or a “controlled corporation” (within the meaning of Section 355(a)(1)(A) of the Code) in a distribution of stock intended to qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code. (x) Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries has participated in a “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b)(2) or any other transaction requiring disclosure under analogous provisions of state, local or foreign Tax law. (xi) Neither the Company nor any of the Company Subsidiaries will be required to include any material item of income in, or to exclude any material item of deduction from, taxable income in any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing Date as a result of any closing agreement, installment sale or open transaction on or prior to the Closing Date, any accounting method change or agreement with any Taxing Authority, any prepaid amount received on or prior to the Closing Date, any election pursuant to Section 108(i) of the Code (or any corresponding provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) made with respect to any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or, to the Knowledge of the Company, any intercompany transaction or excess loss account described in Section 1502 of the Code (or any corresponding provision of state, local or foreign Tax law).
