Related to Payments for Tax Refunds and Tax Benefits
Refunds and Tax Benefits (a) Except to the extent such refund was accrued as an asset on the Closing Balance Sheet, the Purchaser shall promptly pay to the Seller the amount of any refund or credit (including any interest paid or credited with respect thereto) received or used, in the case of a credit, by the Purchaser or by any Pershing Company of Taxes (i) relating to taxable periods of any Pershing Company or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing Date or (ii) attributable to an amount paid by the Seller under Section 7.01 hereof. The Purchaser shall, if the Seller so requests and at the Seller's expense, cause the relevant entity to file for and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and expedite the receipt of any refund to which the Seller is entitled under this Section 7.02. The Purchaser shall permit the Seller to participate in (at the Seller's expense) the prosecution of any such refund claim. The Seller shall not be entitled to pursue any refund claim if such claim would increase Taxes payable by any Pershing Company or Purchaser after the Closing unless the Seller shall indemnify Purchaser for such increased Taxes. (b) Any amount otherwise payable by the Seller under Section 7.01 shall be reduced by the estimated present value of any net Tax benefit available to the Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with the payment of Taxes for which the Seller is responsible under Section 7.01, and increased by the estimated present value of any Tax cost reasonably expected to be incurred by the indemnified party or its Affiliates as the result of the receipt of such indemnity payment. The estimated present value of any net Tax benefit and the estimated present value of any Tax costs referred to in this subsection (and in Section 9.02(e)) shall be computed using the applicable federal rate for the appropriate time period as defined in Section 1274(d)(1) of the Code as the discount rate and a Tax rate for all relevant years of 40%.
Payment of Taxes and Claims; Tax Consolidation The Company shall pay, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, (a) all material taxes, assessments and other governmental charges imposed upon it or on any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its franchises, business, income or property before any penalty or interest accrues thereon, and (b) all claims (including, without limitation, claims for labor, services, materials and supplies) for sums which have become due and payable and which by law have or may become a Lien (other than a Lien permitted by Section 7.03) upon any of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s property or assets, prior to the time when any penalty or fine shall be incurred with respect thereto; provided, however, that no such taxes, assessments and governmental charges referred to in clause (a) above or claims referred to in clause (b) above (and interest, penalties or fines relating thereto) need be paid if being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently instituted and conducted and if such reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in conformity with Agreement Accounting Principles shall have been made therefor.
Tax Refunds (a) Seller shall be entitled to the amount of any Income Tax refunds (or any Tax credits received in lieu thereof to the extent such credit in lieu thereof actually reduces Taxes for a Post-Closing Tax Period) that are actually received by Buyer, any Group Company, any of their respective Affiliates, or a consolidated, combined, unitary, or similar group of which any Group Company is a member after the Closing, in each case, for any Pre-Closing Tax Period ending on the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (determined in accordance with Section 8.6.4), including any such Tax refunds resulting from any Transaction Tax Deductions, and net of any Taxes and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such Tax refunds (or credits in lieu thereof), in each case, to the extent such Tax refund (or credit in lieu thereof) is with respect to Taxes paid by a Group Company prior to the Closing Date or included in the final calculation of the Closing Statement (any such Income Tax refund or credit in lieu thereof, a “Tax Refund”); provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to any Tax Refund (x) required to be paid over by any Group Company (or any Affiliate thereof) to any Person under a provision of a Contract (other than this Agreement) to which such Person was a party prior to the Closing, (y) resulting from the payment of Income Taxes by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Group Company) made after the Closing Date to the extent such Income Taxes were not included in the final calculation of the Closing Statement, and (z) resulting from a carryback of a Tax attribute from any period ending after the Closing Date. (b) Buyer shall promptly pay, or cause to be paid, over to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds any Tax Refunds that Seller is entitled to pursuant to this Section 8.6.1 within ten (10) Business Days of the actual receipt of the Tax Refund giving rise to Buyer’s obligation to make a payment pursuant to Section 8.6.1 with respect thereto (or, in the case of a credit in lieu of a refund, the Due Date for the filing of a Tax Return that reflects the actual reduction in Taxes resulting from such credit). (c) The Group Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain (or cause to be obtained) any reasonably available Tax Refunds with respect to any applicable Pre-Closing Period Income Tax Return by filing, or causing to file, any such Tax Returns as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, in each case, as finally resolved pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.6.2; provided, however, that the Group Companies shall not be required to file IRS Form 4466 (or any comparable form for state or local Tax purposes). The Group Companies shall not elect to apply any applicable Tax Refund as a credit against Taxes payable for a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date. (d) For applicable Tax purposes, Buyer, Seller and each of their respective Affiliates shall treat all payments to Seller made pursuant to this Section 8.6.1 as an adjustment to purchase price to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.
Excise Tax Payments (a) If any payment or benefit (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code) to the Executive or for his benefit paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise in connection with, or arising out of, his employment with the Company or a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or of a substantial portion of its assets (each a “Payment” and collectively, the “Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Executive will be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”), such that the net amount retained by the Executive, after deduction and/or payment of any Excise Tax on the Payments and the Gross-Up Payment and any federal, state and local income tax on the Gross-Up Payment (including any interest or penalties, other than interest and penalties imposed by reason of the Executive’s failure to file timely a tax return or pay taxes shown due on his return, imposed with respect to such taxes), shall be equal to the Payments. (b) An initial determination as to whether a Gross-Up Payment is required pursuant to this Agreement and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment shall be made at the Company’s expense by an accounting firm selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive which is designated as one of the four largest accounting firms in the United States (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determination (the “Determination”), together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation to the Company and the Executive within five days of the Termination Date if applicable, or such other time as requested by the Executive (provided the Executive reasonably believes that any of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax) and if the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive as provided in Section 5(a) above, it shall furnish the Executive with an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Executive to such effect. Within ten days of the delivery of the Determination to the Executive, the Executive shall have the right to dispute the Determination (the “Dispute”). The Gross-Up Payment, if any, as determined pursuant to this Paragraph 5(b) shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination. The existence of the Dispute shall not in any way affect the Executive’s right to receive the Gross-Up Payment in accordance with the Determination. Upon the final resolution of a Dispute, the Company shall promptly pay to the Executive any additional amount required by such resolution. If there is no Dispute, the Determination shall be binding, final and conclusive upon the Company and the Executive subject to the application of Section 5(c) below. (c) As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Sections 4999 and 280G of the Code, it is possible that a Gross-Up Payment (or a portion thereof) will be paid which should not have been paid (an “Excess Payment”) or a Gross-Up Payment (or a portion thereof) which should have been paid will not have been paid (an “Underpayment”). An Underpayment shall be deemed to have occurred (i) upon notice (formal or informal) to the Executive from any governmental taxing authority that the Executive’s tax liability (whether in respect of the Executive’s current taxable year or in respect of any prior taxable year) may be increased by reason of the imposition of the Excise Tax on a Payment or Payments with respect to which the Company has failed to make a sufficient Gross-Up Payment, (ii) upon a determination by a court, (iii) by reason of a determination by the Company (which shall include the position taken by the Company, together with its consolidated group, on its federal income tax return) or (iv) upon the resolution of the Dispute to the Executive’s satisfaction. If an Underpayment occurs, the Executive shall promptly notify the Company and the Company shall promptly, but in any event, at least five days prior to the date on which the applicable government taxing authority has requested payment, pay to the Executive an additional Gross-Up Payment equal to the amount of the Underpayment plus any interest and penalties (other than interest and penalties imposed by reason of the Executive’s failure to file timely a tax return or pay taxes shown due on the Executive’s return) imposed on the Underpayment. An Excess Payment shall be deemed to have occurred upon a Final Determination (as hereinafter defined) that the Excise Tax shall not be imposed upon a Payment or Payments (or portion thereof) with respect to which the Executive had previously received a Gross-Up Payment. A “Final Determination” shall be deemed to have occurred when the Executive has received from the applicable government taxing authority a refund of taxes or other reduction in the Executive’s tax liability by reason of the Excess Payment and upon either (x) the date a determination is made by, or an agreement is entered into with, the applicable governmental taxing authority which finally and conclusively binds the Executive and such taxing authority, or if a claim is brought before a court of competent jurisdiction, the date upon which a final determination has been made by such court and either all appeals have been taken and finally resolved or the time for all appeals has expired or (y) the statute of limitations with respect to the Executive’s applicable tax return has expired. If an Excess Payment is determined to have been made, the amount of the Excess Payment shall be treated as a loan by the Company to the Executive and the Executive shall pay to the Company on demand (but not less than 10 days after the determination of such Excess Payment and written notice has been delivered to the Executive) the amount of the Excess Payment plus interest at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Federal Rate provided for in Section 1274(d) of the Code from the date the Gross-Up Payment (to which the Excess Payment relates) was paid to the Executive until the date of repayment to the Company.
Gross Up for Taxes If any Borrower shall be required by Applicable Law to withhold or deduct any taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any of the Other Documents to Agent, or any Lender, assignee of any Lender, or Participant (each, individually, a “Payee” and collectively, the “Payees”), (a) the sum payable to such Payee or Payees, as the case may be, shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required withholding or deductions, the applicable Payee or Payees receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deductions been made (the “Gross-Up Payment”), (b) such Borrower shall make such withholding or deductions, and (c) such Borrower shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Borrower shall be obligated to make any portion of the Gross-Up Payment that is attributable to any withholding or deductions that would not have been paid or claimed had the applicable Payee or Payees properly claimed a complete exemption with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof.
Tax Benefits any benefits with respect to Taxes which are actually and currently realized by any Tax Indemnitee, which are attributable solely to the incurrence or payment by such Tax Indemnitee of any indemnified Losses or Taxes or an event giving rise to such Losses or Taxes; provided, that for the purpose of calculating such Tax Benefit, such Tax Indemnitee shall be deemed to utilize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit, including those that arise outside the scope of this Agreement, before utilizing any item arising from the incurrence or payment of any indemnified Loss or Tax. A Tax Indemnitee shall be deemed to have actually and currently realized and utilized a Tax Benefit to the extent that, and at such time as, the amount of Taxes payable by the Tax Indemnitee is actually reduced below the amount of Taxes such Tax Indemnitee would be required to pay but for the incurrence or payment of such Loss or Taxes, computed in accordance with the ordering rules set forth above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (a), in calculating any Tax Benefit, a Tax Indemnitee, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or by contract, shall determine when Tax Benefits are utilized in a manner which is non-discriminatory with respect to all other Similar Loans, it being understood that if, after taking into account all tax items of such Tax Indemnitee other than from this Loan and Similar Loans, such Tax Indemnitee has the capacity to use some or all of the Tax Benefits and some or all of the tax benefits generated by Similar Loans, it cannot rely upon a provision in such Similar Loan that requires the tax benefits from such Similar Loans to be applied last to avoid applying the tax benefits under those Similar Loans and, based on this non-discriminatory provision, also the Tax Benefits from this Loan in calculating the indemnities due under the respective loan. For purposes of this provision, “Similar Loans” means loans (i) in which the Tax Indemnitee or any affiliate thereof is a participant and with respect to which such Tax Indemnitee or affiliate is entitled to indemnification with respect to Taxes, and (ii) in which the Borrower is a U.S. Borrower with a similar or lesser credit as the Borrower.
Payment of Debts, Taxes, Etc The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, all of its indebtedness and other liabilities and perform, or cause to be performed, all of its obligations in accordance with the respective terms thereof, and pay and discharge, or cause to be paid or discharged, all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges and levies imposed upon it, upon any of its assets and properties on or before the last day on which the same may be paid without penalty, as well as pay all other lawful claims (whether for services, labor, materials, supplies or otherwise) as and when due
Tax Payments Each Company shall be liable for and shall pay the Taxes allocated to it by this Section 2 either to the applicable Tax Authority or to the other Company in accordance with Section 4 and the other applicable provisions of this Agreement.
Grossing-up for taxes If the Borrower is required by law to make a tax deduction from any payment: (a) the Borrower shall notify the Agent as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement; (b) the Borrower shall pay the tax deducted to the appropriate taxation authority promptly, and in any event before any fine or penalty arises; (c) the amount due in respect of the payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that each Creditor Party receives and retains (free from any liability relating to the tax deduction) a net amount which, after the tax deduction, is equal to the full amount which it would otherwise have received.
Adjustments for Tax Purposes Any payments made pursuant to Section 2.04 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
