Related to Reimbursement and Allocation of Taxes

• Allocation of Taxes For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that relate to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for purposes of any obligation to indemnify for Taxes under Section 4.2(b) the parties agree to use the following conventions: (1) Taxes in the form of interest, penalties, additions to tax or other additional amounts that are actually incurred, accrued, assessed or similarly charged on or after the Closing Date but that relate to Taxes that accrued on or before the Closing Date shall be treated as occurring prior to the Closing Date; (2) Except for Taxes for which the Operating Partnership is responsible hereunder and for real estate taxes (apportioned pursuant to Section 1.5), for all Taxes that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that is attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be allocated between the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning after the Closing Date using the following conventions: (i) in the case of such Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, net or gross income, Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any sale, receipt, use, transfer or assignments of property or other asset, or Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any payment or accrual of any amounts (including, without limitation, dividends, interest, or wages), the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be the amount of Tax that would be payable for such portion of the Straddle Period if such Person filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes or Taxes solely for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books” methodology for allocating items of such Tax Return; and (ii) in the case of all other such Taxes, the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall equal to the amount of Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. For purposes of clause (1), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions and the effects of graduated rates) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

• Proration of Taxes For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, (a) Property Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be equal to the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (b) Taxes (other than Property Taxes) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

• Collections and Allocations (a) The Servicer shall direct any agent or administrative agent for any Loan Asset to remit all cash Collections with respect to such Loan Asset, and, if applicable, to direct the Obligor with respect to such Loan Asset to remit all cash Collections with respect to such Loan Asset directly to the Collection Account and all other Collections as directed by the Collateral Agent. The Borrower and the Servicer shall take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that only funds constituting cash Collections relating to Loan Assets shall be deposited into the Collection Account (b) The Servicer shall promptly identify any Collections received as being on account of Interest Collections, Principal Collections or other Available Collections and shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, all Available Collections received directly by it to the Collection Account by the close of business two Business Days after such Collections are received. Upon the transfer of Available Collections to the Collection Account, the Servicer shall segregate Principal Collections and Interest Collections and direct the Account Bank to transfer the same to the Principal Collection Subaccount and the Interest Collection Subaccount, respectively. The Servicer shall further include a statement as to the amount of Principal Collections and Interest Collections on deposit in the Principal Collection Subaccount and the Interest Collection Subaccount on each Reporting Date in the Servicing Report delivered pursuant to Section 6.08(b). (c) On the Cut-Off Date with respect to any Loan Asset, the Servicer will deposit into the Collection Account all Available Collections received in respect of Eligible Loan Assets being transferred to and included as part of the Collateral Portfolio on such date. (d) With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (a copy of which will be provided by the Servicer to the Collateral Agent and the Account Bank), (i) prior to any Notice of Exclusive Control, the Servicer may withdraw from the Collection Account any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts, or (ii) from and after any Notice of Exclusive Control, the Servicer may request the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent shall, withdraw from the Collection Account and deliver to the Servicer any deposits thereto constituting Excluded Amounts, in each case, if the Servicer has, prior to such withdrawal and consent or request and consent, as applicable, delivered to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent a report setting forth the calculation of such Excluded Amounts in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Lender Agent. (e) Prior to any Notice of Exclusive Control, the Servicer shall, pursuant to written instruction (which may be in the form of standing instructions), direct the Collateral Agent (and the Collateral Agent shall direct the Account Bank) to invest, or cause the investment of, funds on deposit in the Collection Account in Permitted Investments, from the date of this Agreement until the Collection Date. Absent any such written instruction, such funds shall not be invested. A Permitted Investment acquired with funds deposited in the Collection Account shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date, and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity, unless the Servicer determines in its good faith commercial judgment that there is substantial risk of material deterioration of such Permitted Investment. All such Permitted Investments shall be registered in the name of the Account Bank or its nominee for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, and otherwise comply with assumptions of the legal opinions of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP and Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Finger, P.A., each dated the Closing Date and delivered in connection with this Agreement; provided that compliance shall be the responsibility of the Borrower and the Servicer and not the Collateral Agent and Account Bank. All income and gain realized from any such investment, as well as any interest earned on deposits in the Collection Account shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Article II hereof. In the event the Borrower or Servicer direct the funds to be invested in investments which are not Permitted Investments, the Borrower shall deposit in the Collection Account (with respect to investments made hereunder of funds held therein), as the case may be, an amount equal to the amount of any actual loss incurred, in respect of any such investment, immediately upon realization of such loss. None of the Account Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, any Lender Agent or any Lender shall be liable for the amount of any loss incurred, in respect of any investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in the Collection Account, other than with respect to fraud or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final decision by a court of competent jurisdiction. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Collateral Agent or the Account Bank or any of their respective Affiliates may receive compensation with respect to the Permitted Investments. (f) Until the Collection Date, neither the Borrower nor the Servicer shall have any rights of direction or withdrawal, with respect to amounts held in the Collection Account, except to the extent explicitly set forth in Section 2.04, this Section 2.19, and Section 2.20.

• Payment of Taxes, Etc Pay and discharge, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property and (ii) all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon its property; provided, however, that neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or claim that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being maintained, unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom attaches to its property and becomes enforceable against its other creditors.

• Payments Net of Taxes All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) income, gross receipts or franchise taxes imposed on the Lender by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Lender is organized or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or as a result of a connection between Lender and any jurisdiction other than a connection resulting solely from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and (ii) income, gross receipts or franchise taxes imposed by any jurisdiction in which the Lender’s lending offices which make or book Loans are located or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable to the Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall pay the relevant amount of such Taxes and the amounts so payable to the Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Lender (after payment of all Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Whenever any Taxes are paid by the Borrower with respect to payments made in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof.

• Apportionment of Taxes If the Acquired Company is permitted, but not required, under applicable foreign, state or local Income Tax Laws to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period, such day shall be treated as the last day of a taxable period. All Taxes and Tax liabilities with respect to the Acquired Company that relate to a Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period as follows: (a) in the case of Taxes that are either (i) based upon or measured by reference to income, receipts, profits, capital, or net worth (including sales and use Taxes), (ii) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), other than conveyances pursuant to this Agreement (as provided under Section 7.7.6), or (iii) required to be withheld, such Taxes apportioned to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the Tax year (or other Tax reporting period to the extent such Taxes are reported and paid other than on an annual basis) ended at the end of the day on the Closing Date; and (b) in the case of all other Taxes, such Taxes apportioned to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (A) any deduction attributable to any Selling Expenses (including any amount that would have been included in calculating Selling Expenses but for the fact that such amount was paid prior to the Closing) shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, (B) any Taxes attributable to any action taken by Buyer or the Acquired Company on or after the Closing Date that is not in the ordinary course of business shall be allocated to the taxable period beginning after the Closing on the Closing Date, and (C) for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any and all Taxes and Tax-related expenses attributable to any action taken by the Acquired Company or Seller pursuant to Sections 2.3.2, 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 of this Agreement shall be the responsibility of Seller.

• Allocation of Tax Liabilities The provisions of this Section 2 are intended to determine each Company's liability for Taxes with respect to Pre-Distribution Periods. Once the liability has been determined under this Section 2, Section 5 determines the time when payment of the liability is to be made, and whether the payment is to be made to the Tax Authority directly or to another Company.

• Application and Allocation of Payments (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) voluntary prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 1.2(a) and (ii) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Sections 1.2(c) and 1.2(d). All payments and prepayments applied to the Revolving Loan shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share (subject to Section 9.9(c)). As to any other payment, and as to all payments made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of the Borrower, and hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by Agent in the Loan Account or any other books and records. In all circumstances, after acceleration or maturity of the Obligations, all payments and proceeds of Collateral shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in accordance with Section 8.2(c). (b) Agent is authorized, at the direction of Requisite Lenders, to charge to the Revolving Loan balance on behalf of the Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in accordance with Section 5.4(a)) and interest and principal, other than principal of the Revolving Loan, owing by the Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if and to the extent the Borrower fails to pay promptly any such amounts as and when due, even if the amount of such charges would cause the balance of the Revolving Loan to exceed the Maximum Amount. To the extent permitted by law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder.

• ASSISTANCE IN THE COLLECTION OF TAXES (1) The Contracting States shall lend assistance to each other in the collection of revenue claims. This assistance is not restricted by Articles 1 and 2. The competent authorities of the Contracting States may by mutual agreement settle the mode of application of this Article. (2) The term “revenue claim” as used in this Article means an amount owed in respect of taxes of every kind and description imposed on behalf of the Contracting States, or of their political subdivisions or local authorities, insofar as the taxation thereunder is not contrary to this Convention or any other instrument to which the Contracting States are parties, as well as interest, administrative penalties and costs of collection or conservancy related to such amount. (3) When a revenue claim of a Contracting State is enforceable under the laws of that State and is owed by a person who, at that time, cannot, under the laws of that State, prevent its collection, that revenue claim shall, at the request of the competent authority of that State, be accepted for purposes of collection by the competent authority of the other Contracting State. That revenue claim shall be collected by that other State in accordance with the provisions of its laws applicable to the enforcement and collection of its own taxes as if the revenue claim were a revenue claim of that other State. (4) When a revenue claim of a Contracting State is a claim in respect of which that State may, under its law, take measures of conservancy with a view to ensure its collection, that revenue claim shall, at the request of the competent authority of that State, be accepted for purposes of taking measures of conservancy by the competent authority of the other Contracting State. That other State shall take measures of conservancy in respect of that revenue claim in accordance with the provisions of its laws as if the revenue claim were a revenue claim of that other State even if, at the time when such measures are applied the revenue claim is not enforceable in the first-mentioned State or is owed by a person who has a right to prevent its collection. (5) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4, a revenue claim accepted by a Contracting State for purposes of paragraph 3 or 4 shall not in that State, be subject to the time limits or accorded any priority applicable to a revenue claim under the laws of that State by reason of its nature as such. In addition, a revenue claim accepted by a Contracting State for the purposes of paragraph 3 or 4 shall not, in that State, have any priority applicable to that revenue claim under the laws of the other Contracting State. (6) Proceedings with respect to the existence, validity or the amount of a revenue claim of a Contracting State shall not be brought before the courts or administrative bodies of the other Contracting State. (7) Where, at any time after a request has been made by a Contracting State under paragraph 3 or 4 and before the other Contracting State has collected and remitted the relevant revenue claim to the first-mentioned State, the relevant revenue claim ceases to be a) in the case of a request under paragraph 3, a revenue claim of the first- mentioned State that is enforceable under the laws of that State and is owed by a person who, at that time, cannot, under the laws of that State, prevent its collection; or b) in the case of a request under paragraph 4, a revenue claim of the first- mentioned State in respect of which that State may, under its laws, take measures of conservancy with a view to ensure its collection the competent authority of the first-mentioned State shall promptly notify the competent authority of the other State of that fact and, at the option of the other State, the first- mentioned State shall either suspend or withdraw its request. (8) In no case shall the provisions of this Article be construed so as to impose on a Contracting State the obligation: a) to carry out administrative measures at variance with the laws and administrative practice of that or of the other Contracting State; b) to carry out measures which would be contrary to public policy (ordre public); c) to provide assistance if the other Contracting State has not pursued all reasonable measures of collection or conservancy, as the case may be, available under its laws or administrative practice; d) to provide assistance in those cases where the administrative burden for that State is clearly disproportionate to the benefit to be derived by the other Contracting State; e) to provide administrative assistance if and insofar as it considers the taxation of the applicant State to be contrary to the generally accepted taxation principles or to the provisions of a convention for the avoidance of double taxation, or of any other convention which the requested State has concluded with the applicant State.

• Payment of Taxes and Claims The Company will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to file all tax returns required to be filed in any jurisdiction and to pay and discharge all taxes shown to be due and payable on such returns and all other taxes, assessments, governmental charges, or levies imposed on them or any of their properties, assets, income or franchises, to the extent such taxes and assessments have become due and payable and before they have become delinquent and all claims for which sums have become due and payable that have or might become a Lien on properties or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary need pay any such tax or assessment or claims if (i) the amount, applicability or validity thereof is contested by the Company or such Subsidiary on a timely basis in good faith and in appropriate proceedings, and the Company or a Subsidiary has established adequate reserves therefor in accordance with GAAP on the books of the Company or such Subsidiary or (ii) the nonpayment of all such taxes and assessments in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
