Taxes and Charges Duly pay and discharge, or cause to be paid and discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, all federal, state or local taxes, assessments, levies and other governmental charges, imposed upon the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective properties, sales and activities, or any part thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims for labor, materials, or supplies which if unpaid could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided that any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim need not be paid if the validity or amount thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if the Borrower shall have set aside on its books reserves (the presentation of which is segregated to the extent required by GAAP) adequate with respect thereto if reserves shall be deemed necessary by the Borrower in accordance with GAAP; and provided, further, that the Borrower will pay all such taxes, assessments, levies or other governmental charges forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any Lien which may have attached as security therefor (unless the same is fully bonded or otherwise effectively stayed).
Taxes and Operating Expenses All real estate taxes, charges and assessments affecting the Property (“Taxes”), all charges for water, electricity, sewer rental, gas, telephone, fuel oil and all other utilities (“Operating Expenses”), to the extent not paid directly by tenants, and all common area maintenance charges billed to tenants on an estimated basis (“CAM Charges”) shall be prorated on a per diem basis as of the date of Closing. Buyer shall be entitled to all income and responsible for all expenses for the period beginning at 12:01 a.m. (Central Time Zone (U.S.A.)) on the date of Closing, except as set forth herein. If any Taxes have not been finally assessed as of the date of Closing for the current fiscal year of the taxing authority, then the same shall be adjusted at Closing based upon the most recently issued bills therefor, and shall be re-adjusted when and if final bills are issued. If any Operating Expenses or CAM Charges cannot conclusively be determined as of the date of Closing, then the same shall be adjusted at Closing based upon the most recently issued bills thus far, and readjusted within 120 days after the end of the calendar year in which the Closing occurs or as soon thereafter as final adjustment figures are available. Buyer hereby agrees to assume all non-delinquent assessments affecting the Property, whether special or general, subject to proration on a per diem basis as of the Closing Date. If Seller is presently prosecuting tax abatement proceedings, after the Closing, Seller shall continue to be authorized to prosecute such proceedings, and shall be entitled to its pro rata share of any such abatement proceeds. Buyer agrees after the Closing, to the extent reasonably necessary for Seller to continue to prosecute such proceedings, to reasonably cooperate with Seller, to pay its pro rata share of any costs attributable to such proceedings and also agrees to promptly endorse or pay over to Seller any abatement amounts for such years received by Buyer, less applicable costs incurred by Buyer. To the extent that such refunds are paid to Seller and are due to tenants, Seller does hereby covenant and agree that it shall, upon receipt thereof, reimburse tenants for their applicable share of such refunds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all reimbursable expenses shall be reconciled at Closing, such that if Seller has collected sums in excess of its reimbursable expenses under the Leases, Seller shall pay such excess to Buyer. In the event that such reconciliation shows that Seller has collected less than its incurred reimbursable expenses under the Leases, Buyer shall remit the shortfall to Seller, when and to the extent actually collected from tenants (with such collections applied first to amounts due with respect to the month in which Closing occurs, and then to any amounts due Buyer with respect to the period of time following the Closing, and then to Seller with respect to any amounts due to Seller with respect to the period of time prior to the Closing) not later than the expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days after the calendar year in which the Closing occurs with respect to the budgeting of such expenses under the Leases.
Real Estate Taxes and Assessments Subject to Section 4(c) below, Tenant shall pay all Real Estate Taxes (as hereinafter defined) levied, assessed, accruing, or imposed from and after the Commencement Date, which shall become due and payable during the Term with respect to the Property. If any such Real Estate Taxes may, at the option of the taxpayer, be paid in installments, Tenant may exercise the option to pay the same in installments; provided Tenant pays all costs and charges related to such installment payment method. All Real Estate Taxes that shall be assessed with respect to a taxable year or period beginning on or before and ending after the Commencement Date or beginning on or before and ending after the Termination Date shall be apportioned pro rata between Landlord and Tenant on a per diem basis in accordance with the respective number of days in such taxable year or period during which this Lease is in effect. “Real Estate Taxes” shall mean the ad valorem real estate taxes levied against the Property (and the improvements and fixtures located thereon), betterment assessments, special benefit taxes and special assessments levied or imposed against the Property, taxes levied or assessed on gross rentals payable by Tenant to the extent charged, assessed or imposed upon tenants in general which are based upon the rents payable under this Lease, any impact fees levied or assessed, whether or not billed by the taxing authority as a special benefit tax or a special assessment, all taxes levied or assessed on the Property that are in addition to or in lieu of taxes that are currently so assessed, and penalties and interest related to Real Estate Taxes if the applicable Real Estate Tax bills have been forwarded to Tenant in a timely manner; provided, however, that Real Estate Taxes shall not include any Excluded Taxes. “Excluded Taxes” shall mean, without limitation, Landlord’s income taxes, gift taxes, excess profit taxes, excise taxes, franchise taxes, estate, succession, inheritance and realty transfer taxes resulting from the transfer of any direct or indirect interest in the Property by Landlord unless such taxes replace Real Estate Taxes in the future (except as expressly set forth in the last sentence of this Section 4(a)), and any interest or penalty charges resulting solely from Landlord’s failure to promptly deliver the Real Estate Tax bills to Tenant if the applicable taxing authority has forwarded the tax xxxx to Landlord rather than Tenant. All special benefit taxes and special assessments shall be amortized over the longest time permitted under ordinance and Tenant’s liability for installments of such special benefit taxes and special assessments not yet due shall be paid in full prior to the expiration or termination of this Lease; provided, that the useful life of any such improvements do not extend beyond the expiration of the Term. Tenant shall also pay, directly to the applicable Governmental Authority (as hereinafter defined), any storm water charges, fees and taxes and use and occupancy tax in connection with the Property or any improvements thereon (or in the event Landlord is required by law to collect such tax, Tenant shall pay such use and occupancy tax to Landlord as Rent within thirty (30) days of written demand and Landlord shall remit any amounts so paid to Landlord to the appropriate Governmental Authority in a timely fashion) and deliver evidence of such payment to Tenant within ten (10) days of making such payment or within ten (10) days of receipt of Tenant’s request for such evidence of payment.
Sales Taxes The Seller shall bear and pay, and shall reimburse the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s affiliates for, any sales taxes, use taxes, transfer taxes, documentary charges, recording fees or similar taxes, charges, fees or expenses that may become payable in connection with the sale of the Assets to the Purchaser or in connection with any of the other Transactions.
Ad Valorem Taxes Prior to delinquency, Tenant shall pay all taxes and assessments levied upon trade fixtures, alterations, additions, improvements, inventories and personal property located and/or installed on or in the Premises by, or on behalf of, Tenant; and if requested by Landlord, Tenant shall promptly deliver to Landlord copies of receipts for payment of all such taxes and assessments. To the extent any such taxes are not separately assessed or billed to Tenant, Tenant shall pay the amount thereof as invoiced by Landlord.
Expenses; Taxes Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the parties shall pay their own fees and expenses, including their own counsel fees, incurred in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby. Any sales tax, stamp duty, deed transfer or other tax (except taxes based on the income of the Investor) arising out of the issuance of the Shares (but not with respect to subsequent transfers) by the Issuer to the Investor and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Issuer.
Closing Costs; Transfer Taxes and Fees Seller shall be responsible for paying (i) any documentary and transfer taxes and any sales, use or other taxes imposed by reason of the transfers of Assets provided hereunder and any deficiency, interest or penalty asserted with respect thereto and (ii) all costs of obtaining the transfer of existing Permits which may be lawfully transferred, (iii) all fees and costs of recording or filing all applicable conveyancing instruments described in Section 3.1, and (iv) all fees and costs of recording or filing all UCC termination statements and other releases of Encumbrances.
Real Property Taxes Taxes, assessments and charges now or hereafter levied or assessed upon, or with respect to, the Project, or any personal property of Landlord used in the operation thereof or located therein, or Landlord's interest in the Project or such personal property, by any federal, state or local entity, including: (i) all real property taxes and general and special assessments; (ii) charges, fees or assessments for transit, housing, day care, open space, art, police, fire or other governmental services or benefits to the Project, including assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges imposed by governmental agencies for such purposes as street, sidewalk, road, utility construction and maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services; (iii) service payments in lieu of taxes; (iv) any tax, fee or excise on the use or occupancy of any part of the Project, or on rent for space in the Project; (v) any other tax, fee or excise, however described, that may be levied or assessed as a substitute for, or as an addition to, in whole or in part, any other Real Property Taxes; and (vi) reasonable consultants' and attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in connection with proceedings to contest, determine or reduce Real Property Taxes. Real Property Taxes do not include: (A) franchise, transfer, inheritance or capital stock taxes, or income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources, unless any such taxes are levied or assessed against Landlord as a substitute for, in whole or in part, any Real Property Tax; (B) Impositions and all similar amounts payable by tenants of the Project under their leases; and (C) penalties, fines, interest or charges due for late payment of Real Property Taxes by Landlord. If any Real Property Taxes are payable, or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid, in installments, such Real Property Taxes shall, together with any interest that would otherwise be payable with such installment, be deemed to have been paid in installments, amortized over the maximum time period allowed by applicable law. If the tax statement from a taxing authority does not allocate Real Property Taxes to the Building, Landlord shall make the determination of the proper allocation of such Real Property Taxes based, to the extent possible, upon records of the taxing authority and, if not so available, then on an equitable basis. Real Property Taxes also do not include any increases in the taxes, assessments, charges, excises and levies assessed against the Project due solely to the construction or installation of tenant improvements or other alterations by tenants of the Project other than Tenant and any other tenants or occupants of the Building; provided, however, that if any Real Property Taxes are imposed or increased due to the construction or installation of tenant improvements or other alterations in the Building, such Real Property Taxes shall be equitably prorated in Landlord's reasonable judgment between Tenant and any other tenants of the Building.
Real Estate Taxes Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, for each tax period partially or wholly included in the term, Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes (as hereinafter defined). Tenant shall remit to Landlord, on the first day of each calendar month, estimated payments on account of Taxes, such monthly amounts to be sufficient to provide Landlord, by the time real estate tax payments are due and payable to any governmental authority responsible for collection of same, a sum equal to the Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes, as reasonably estimated by Landlord from time to time on the basis of the most recent tax data available. The initial calculation of the monthly estimated payments shall be based upon the Initial Estimate of Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes for the governmental authority’s fiscal tax period applicable to the Building (the “Tax Year”) and upon quarterly payments being due to the governmental authority on August 1, November 1, February 1 and May 1, and shall be made when the Commencement Date has been determined. If the total of such monthly remittances for any Tax Year is greater than the Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes for such Tax Year, Landlord shall promptly pay to Tenant, or credit against the next accruing payments to be made by Tenant pursuant to this subsection 4.2.1, the difference; if the total of such remittances is less than the Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes for such Tax Year, Tenant shall pay the difference to Landlord at least twenty (20) days prior to the date or dates within such Tax Year that any Taxes become due and payable to the governmental authority (but in any event no earlier than twenty (20) days following a written notice to Tenant, which notice shall set forth the manner of computation of Tenant’s Percentage of Taxes). If, after Tenant shall have made reimbursement to Landlord pursuant to this subsection 4.2.1, Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of Taxes paid by Tenant with respect to any Tax Year during the term hereof as a result of an abatement of such Taxes by legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise (without either party having any obligation to undertake any such proceedings), Landlord shall promptly pay to Tenant, or credit against the next accruing payments to be made by Tenant pursuant to this subsection 4.2.1, the Tenant’s Percentage of the refund (less the proportional, pro rata expenses, including attorneys’ fees and appraisers’ fees, incurred in connection with obtaining any such refund), as relates to Taxes paid by Tenant to Landlord with respect to any Tax Year for which such refund is obtained. In the event this Lease shall commence, or shall end (by reason of expiration of the term or earlier termination pursuant to the provisions hereof), on any date other than the first or last day of the Tax Year, or should the Tax Year or period of assessment of real estate taxes be changed or be more or less than one (1) year, as the case may be, then the amount of Taxes which may be payable by Tenant as provided in this subsection 4.2.1 shall be appropriately apportioned and adjusted.
Taxes and Assessments; Tax Indemnity The Company shall (a) file all tax returns and appropriate schedules thereto that are required to be filed under applicable law, prior to the date of delinquency, (b) pay and discharge all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Company, upon its income and profits or upon any properties belonging to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, and (c) pay all taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies that, if unpaid, might become a lien or charge upon any of its properties; provided, however, that the Company in good faith may contest any such tax, assessment, governmental charge or levy described in the foregoing clauses (b) and (c) so long as appropriate reserves are maintained with respect thereto.
