Transfer Pricing If, as the result of any Final Determination relating to intercompany transfer pricing with respect to any item or items reflected on any Income Tax Return of a member of any Company Group for a Pre-Deconsolidation Period, there is an increase in Income Taxes payable for such Tax Period by any member of such Company Group, then, upon the reasonable written request of, and at the expense of, the relevant Company, the other Companies, as relevant, shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) amend any Tax Returns of any member of such other Company Group(s), as applicable, to the extent such amendment would result in a corresponding or correlative reduction in Taxes otherwise payable by a member of such other Company Group(s) and shall promptly pay over any Tax Benefit actually realized in cash as a result of such amendment (determined on a “with or without” basis); provided, however, that no Company (or any Affiliates of any Company) shall (a) have any obligation to amend any Tax Return pursuant to this Section 4.11 to the extent doing so would have an adverse effect on such Company or any of its Affiliates that is material or (b) be obligated to make a payment otherwise required pursuant to this Section 4.11 to the extent making such payment would place such Company (or any of its Affiliates) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Company (or such Affiliate) would have been in if the relevant Tax Benefit had not been realized. If a Company or one of its Affiliates pays over any amount pursuant to the preceding sentence and such Tax Benefit is subsequently disallowed or adjusted, the Parties shall promptly make appropriate payments (including in respect of any interest paid or imposed by any Tax Authority) to reflect such disallowance or adjustment.

Project Summary The main objective of the LIFE GAIA Sense project is to demonstrate gaiasense, an innovative “Smart Farming” (SF) solution that aims at reducing the consumption of natural resources, as a way to protect the environment and support Circular Economy (CE) models. More specifically, this project will launch 18 demonstrators across Greece, Spain and Portugal covering 9 crops (olives, peaches, cotton, pistachio, potatoes, table tomatoes, industrial tomatoes, grapes, kiwi) in various terrain and microclimatic conditions. They will demonstrate an innovative method, based on high-end technology, which is suitable for being replicated and will be accessible and affordable to Farmers either as individuals or collectively through Agricultural Cooperatives. Moreover, LIFE GAIA Sense aims to promote resource efficiency practices in SMEs of the agricultural sector and eventually, contribute to the implementation of the Roadmap to a Resource Efficient Europe. This project will demonstrate a method on how the farmer will be able to decide either to use or avoid inputs (irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides etc.) in a most efficient way, without risking the annual production. The focus is on the resource consumption reduction side of CE, and the results will be both qualitatively and quantitatively, considering the resources’ efficiency in agricultural sector.
