Common use of Participation Rights of Parties and Information Sharing with respect to Audits Clause in Contracts

Participation Rights of Parties and Information Sharing with respect to Audits. (i) Each Party that would be responsible under Section 9.3 for Taxes resulting from an Audit described in Section 9.2(a)(i) (other than the Audit Management Party) (a “Participating Party”) shall have limited participation rights as set forth in this Section 9.2(c) with respect to such Audit. Promptly after the Distributions, the Audit Management Party shall arrange for a meeting or conference call that includes all of the Participating Parties to discuss the status of all ongoing Audits. In addition, promptly after notification of an Audit pursuant to Section 9.1, the Audit Management Party shall arrange for a meeting or conference call that includes all of the Participating Parties to plan for the management of such Audit; provided, however, that this requirement shall not apply with respect to notification of an Audit by a U.S. state (or the District of Columbia) of a Pre-Distribution Income Tax Return or a Straddle Income Tax Return. Thereafter, the Participating Parties and the Audit Management Party shall arrange for a meeting or conference call to be held on a monthly basis (or on such other basis as agreed) in order to facilitate regular communication on the status of the Audits. The Participating Parties and the Audit Management Party may determine from time to time to have a separate special meeting to discuss a significant Audit issue. Each Participating Party shall identify any personnel and external advisors who are participating in each of the meetings described above, and shall provide a list of the names of such persons to the Audit Management Party in advance of such meeting.
