Indirect Tax (a) All amounts set out or expressed in a Finance Document to be payable by any Party to a Finance Party shall be deemed to be exclusive of any Indirect Tax. If any Indirect Tax is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party in connection with 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 Indirect Tax. (b) 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 Indirect Tax incurred by that Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment in respect of the Indirect Tax.
Indirect Taxes All payments are exclusive of value added taxes, sales taxes, consumption taxes and other similar taxes (the “Indirect Taxes”). If any Indirect Taxes are chargeable in respect of any payments, the paying Party shall pay such Indirect Taxes at the applicable rate in respect of such payments following receipt, where applicable, of an Indirect Taxes invoice in the appropriate form issued by the receiving Party in respect of those payments. The Parties shall issue invoices for all amounts payable under this Agreement consistent with Indirect Tax requirements and irrespective of whether the sums may be netted for settlement purposes. If the Indirect Taxes originally paid or otherwise borne by the paying Party are in whole or in part subsequently determined not to have been chargeable, all necessary steps will be taken by the receiving Party to receive a refund of these undue Indirect Taxes from the applicable governmental authority or other fiscal authority and any amount of undue Indirect Taxes repaid by such authority to the receiving Party will be transferred to the paying Party within forty-five (45) days of receipt.
Payment of Impositions Subject to Section 12.2 (relating to permitted contests), Lessee will pay, or cause to be paid, all Impositions (other than Real Estate Taxes and Personal Property Taxes, which shall be paid by Lessor) before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added for non-payment, such payments to be made directly to the taxing or other authorities where feasible, and will promptly furnish to Lessor copies of official receipts or other satisfactory proof evidencing such payments. Lessee’s obligation to pay such Impositions shall be deemed absolutely fixed upon the date such Impositions become a lien upon the Leased Property or any part thereof. If any such Imposition may, at the option of the taxpayer, lawfully be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Lessee may exercise the option to pay the same (and any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition) in installments and in such event, shall pay such installments during the Term hereof (subject to Lessee’s right of contest pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.2) as the same respectively become due and before any fine, penalty, premium, further interest or cost may be added thereto. Lessor, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable law, prepare and file all tax returns in respect of Lessor’s net income, gross receipts, sales and use, single business, transaction privilege, rent, ad valorem, franchise taxes, Real Estate Taxes, Personal Property Taxes and taxes on its capital stock, and Lessee, at its expense, shall, to the extent required or permitted by applicable laws and regulations, prepare and file all other tax returns and reports in respect of any Imposition as may be required by governmental authorities. If any refund shall be due from any taxing authority in respect of any Imposition paid by Lessee, the same shall be paid over to or retained by Lessee if no Event of Default shall have occurred hereunder and be continuing. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any such refund shall be paid over to or retained by Lessor. Any such funds retained by Lessor due to an Event of Default shall be applied as provided in Article 16. Lessor and Lessee shall, upon request of the other, provide such data as is maintained by the party to whom the request is made with respect to the Leased Property as may be necessary to prepare any required returns and reports. Lessee shall file all Personal Property Tax returns in such jurisdictions where it is legally required so to file. Lessor, to the extent it possesses the same, and Lessee, to the extent it possesses the same, will provide the other party, upon request, with cost and depreciation records necessary for filing returns for any property classified as personal property. Where Lessor is legally required to file Personal Property Tax returns, Lessee shall provide Lessor with copies of assessment notices in sufficient time for Lessor to file a protest. Lessor may, upon Notice to Lessee, at Lessor’s option and at Lessor’s sole expense, protest, appeal, or institute such other proceedings (in its or Lessee’s name) as Lessor may deem appropriate to effect a reduction of real estate or personal property assessments for those Impositions to be paid by Lessor, and Lessee, at Lessor’s expense as aforesaid, shall fully cooperate with Lessor in such protest, appeal, or other action. Lessor hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Lessee from and against any claims, obligations, liabilities and loss against or incurred by Lessee in connection with such cooperation. Xxxxxxxx for reimbursement of Personal Property Taxes by Lessee to Lessor shall be accompanied by copies of a xxxx therefor and payments thereof which identify the personal property with respect to which such payments are made. Lessor, however, reserves the right to effect any such protest, appeal or other action and, upon Notice to Lessee, shall control any such activity, which shall then go forward at Lessor’s sole expense. Upon such Notice, Lessee, at Lessor’s expense, shall cooperate fully with such activities.
Contingent Payments (a) Following the Closing and as additional consideration for the Securities, Buyer shall make, or cause the Acquired Entities to make, to Sellers (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 1.4) additional cash payments based on the performance of the Acquired Entities during each of the twelve month periods ending (i) December 31, 2006, (ii) December 31, 2007, (iii) December 31, 2008 and (iv) December 31, 2009 (each, a “Contingent Payment Period”). With respect to each Contingent Payment Period, Buyer shall make, or cause the Acquired Entities to make, to Sellers cash payments in an aggregate amount equal to the amount, if any, by which EBITDA during such Contingent Payment Period exceeds $8,000,000 (each such excess, if and to the extent earned for any such Contingent Payment Period, a “Contingent Payment”). The Contingent Payment, if any, for each Contingent Payment Period shall be paid by Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities as follows: (A) Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities shall pay to each Seller an amount equal to 50% of such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of such Contingent Payment in accordance with Section 1.4(b) below and (B) Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities shall pay to each Seller an amount equal to 50% of such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of such Contingent Payment on April ___, 2012. (b) Within five (5) Business Days following Buyer’s receipt of its audited consolidated financial statements for a particular Contingent Payment Period, but in any event within 95 days following the last day of each Contingent Payment Period, Buyer’s board of directors (the “Board”) shall deliver to each Seller (i) a copy of such financial statements, if such financial statements have been delivered to Buyer as of such date, (ii) a statement (a “Calculation Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s calculation of the Contingent Payment (if any) for such Contingent Payment Period and
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).
Characterization of Indemnification Payments Except as otherwise required by Law, all payments made by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim pursuant to this Section 6.5 hereof shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.
PAYMENT OF CLOSING COSTS In addition to the costs set forth in Paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2, Purchaser and Seller shall each pay for one-half of the costs of the documentary or transfer stamps to be paid with reference to the "Deed" (hereinafter defined) and all other stamps, intangible, transfer, documentary, recording, sales tax and surtax imposed by law with reference to any other sale documents delivered in connection with the sale of the Property to Purchaser and all other charges of the Title Insurer in connection with this transaction.
Contingent Payment (a) In the event that Purchaser consummates a Change of Control Transaction prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date (a “Qualifying Sale Transaction”), then Seller shall be entitled to receive a payment in an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Net Sale Proceeds, valuing any non-cash consideration included in the Net Sale Proceeds at fair market value (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of Purchaser) (such payment, the “Contingent Payment”), payable in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.7. (b) No later than five (5) days following the final determination of the Qualifying Sale Proceeds pursuant to the post-closing purchase price adjustment provisions of the definitive agreement for such Qualifying Sale Transaction (the “Qualifying Sale Agreement”) Purchaser shall deliver to Seller, along with reasonable supporting documentation, a statement setting forth in reasonable detail Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the Net Sale Proceeds and the resulting Contingent Payment (the “Contingent Payment Statement”). Purchaser’s calculation of the Contingent Payment set forth in the Contingent Payment Statement shall be final and binding for all purposes of this Agreement unless Seller delivers to Purchaser a written objection to such calculation within twenty (20) days following the date of delivery of the Contingent Payment Statement setting forth in reasonable detail Seller’s basis for its objection. In the event that Seller timely submits any such written objection, then Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve their dispute with respect to the calculation of the Contingent Payment; provided, that if such dispute is not resolved within twenty (20) days after delivery of such written objection, then the dispute resolution provisions of Section 2.4(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis. (c) No later than three (3) Business Days after final determination of the amount of the Contingent Payment pursuant to Section 2.7(b), Purchaser shall pay to Seller the Contingent Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated by Seller at least one (1) Business Day prior to the end of such three (3) Business Day period; provided, that in the event that any portion of the consideration to be received by Cerberus pursuant to such Qualifying Sale Transaction (i) is subject to any escrow, holdback or other contingency, then the proportionate amount of the Contingent Payment shall be withheld and not paid to Seller unless, until and only to the extent that such portion of Cerberus’s consideration is released to Cerberus from any such escrow or holdback, or such contingency lapses or is satisfied (or any portion of the amounts withheld in respect of such contingency is distributed to the limited partners or other investors of Cerberus), as applicable, and (ii) is non-cash consideration, then the Contingent Payment shall be made in the same proportion of cash and non-cash consideration as the proportion of cash and non-cash consideration comprising the Qualifying Sale Proceeds; provided further that, to the extent receipt of any non-cash consideration would cause Seller or any of its Affiliates to be bound by, or otherwise subject to, any noncompetition, nonsolicitation or other material restrictive covenant (other than a customary confidentiality covenant, and expressly excluding any shareholder restrictions on transfer that apply equally to Cerberus), Seller instead shall be entitled to receive from Purchaser cash with a value equivalent to such non-cash consideration, valuing such non-cash consideration at fair market value (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of Purchaser). (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.7 or otherwise, but subject to any rights Seller or any of its Affiliates may have under the Ancillary Agreements, (i) Seller shall have no rights with respect to any Change of Control Transaction, Qualifying Sale Transaction or Qualifying Sale Agreement (including, without limitation, no information rights or rights to object or consent to any such transaction or agreement) other than the rights expressly set forth herein to receive the Contingent Payment if and when payable pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.7 and (ii) Purchaser shall not be permitted in connection with any Qualifying Sale Transaction to bind Seller or any of its Affiliates to sell any equity interests to, or to make any agreement, covenant or restriction with or in favor of, any third party.
