Company Tax Returns The Company shall file all tax returns, if any, required to be filed by the Company.
Tax Returns and Payments; Pension Contributions Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed all required tax returns and reports, and Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, has timely paid all foreign, federal, state, and local taxes, assessments, deposits and contributions owed by Borrower and such Subsidiaries, in all jurisdictions in which Borrower or any such Subsidiary is subject to taxes, including the United States, unless such taxes are being contested in accordance with the following sentence. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries, may defer payment of any contested taxes, provided that Borrower or such Subsidiary, (a) in good faith contests its obligation to pay the taxes by appropriate proceedings promptly and diligently instituted and conducted, (b) notifies Collateral Agent in writing of the commencement of, and any material development in, the proceedings, and (c) posts bonds or takes any other steps required to prevent the Governmental Authority levying such contested taxes from obtaining a Lien upon any of the Collateral that is other than a “Permitted Lien.” Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is aware of any claims or adjustments proposed for any of Borrower’s or such Subsidiaries’, prior tax years which could result in additional taxes becoming due and payable by Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have paid all amounts necessary to fund all present pension, profit sharing and deferred compensation plans in accordance with their terms, and neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries have, withdrawn from participation in, and have not permitted partial or complete termination of, or permitted the occurrence of any other event with respect to, any such plan which could reasonably be expected to result in any liability of Borrower or its Subsidiaries, including any liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or its successors or any other Governmental Authority.
Straddle Period Taxes Seller shall, at its own expense, prepare and timely file all Tax Returns relating to all real property Taxes, personal property Taxes or similar ad valorem obligations levied (i) on the owner of the Transferred Loans for any taxable period that begins before the Cut-Off Time and ends after the Cut-Off Time and (ii) on the owner of all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets for any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (each such taxable period, a “Straddle Period”, and such Taxes, “Straddle Period Taxes”), whether imposed or assessed before or after the Cut-Off Time or the Closing Date, as appropriate. Buyers shall be liable for and shall indemnify Seller, its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending after the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and after the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Seller shall be liable for and shall indemnify Buyers, their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending before the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and ending on or before the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Any credits relating to a Straddle Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant Straddle Period ended at the Cut-Off Time or on the Closing Date, as appropriate. Any material Tax Return for a Straddle Period shall be submitted to Buyers by Seller at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of such Tax Return (taking valid extensions into account). Buyers will pay to Seller, within two (2) Business Days after the filing of any such Tax Return by Seller, an amount equal to the portion of the Straddle Period Taxes reflected on such Tax Return for which Buyers are liable under this Section 6.11. For the avoidance of doubt, Straddle Period Taxes do not include any Taxes owed by an Obligor with respect to real property securing any Transferred Loan.
Straddle Period In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:
(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and
(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer, Depositor and Administrator are each authorized, in its sole discretion, to make any available election related to Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code (and any corresponding provision of State law) and take any action it deems necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code and conduct the Issuer’s affairs under Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code (and any corresponding provision of State law).
