Tax Audits A. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parent is, and shall continue to be, authorized to undertake any and all actions that are within the scope of Parent’s authority under the Code or the applicable Treasury Regulations, as the common parent corporation of the Consolidated Group in connection with the filing of any Consolidated Returns and any U.S. federal income tax audit, examination or other tax proceeding involving Taxes filed on a group basis. Parent shall have the authority to control, settle and resolve any dispute relating to any Consolidated Returns with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or any other Taxing Authority; provided, however, that Parent shall keep NBH duly informed of the progress thereof to the extent that such Tax Proceeding (as defined below in Section 2.5B) or Tax Claim (as defined below in Section 2.5B) could directly or indirectly affect (adversely or otherwise) any member of the NBH Group and that NBH shall have the right to review and comment on any and all submissions made to the IRS, a court, or other Taxing Authority with respect to such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding and that Parent will consider such comments in good faith. If Parent provides written notice to NBH of its intent to settle or resolve any such Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim (the “Proposed Resolution”), NBH shall have thirty (30) days (or such shorter time as is necessary to avoid material prejudice to Parent or any member of the Affiliated Group, which shorter period Parent shall provide notice of to NBH) within which to provide any objection thereto in writing. If the Parties are unable to reach an agreement within thirty (30) days (or such shorter time as is necessary to avoid material prejudice to Parent or any member of the Affiliated Group, which shorter period Parent shall provide notice of to NBH) after Parent’s receipt of NBH’s written objection to any potential settlement or resolution by Parent of any such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding, the objection shall be resolved by an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm mutually selected by the Parties (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall determine whether it is “more likely than not” that an alternative settlement or resolution of such Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim could reasonably be obtained that imposes less liability on the NBH Group (either under this Agreement or applicable law) than the Proposed Resolution and no greater liability on Parent or its affiliates (either under this Agreement or applicable law) than the Proposed Resolution (such settlement or resolution, the “Alternative Resolution”). If the Accounting Firm determines that an Alternative Resolution is reasonably available, Parent shall not enter into the Proposed Resolution. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Each of Parent and NBH shall bear all fees and costs incurred by it in connection with the resolution of any such Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim, except that (i) the Parties shall each pay one-half (50%) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm, and (ii) without prejudice to Parent’s rights under Section 3.3B, if the Alternative Resolution requires pursuing the settlement or resolution of such Tax Claim or Tax Proceeding in a different forum than the forum in which the Proposed Resolution arose, NBH shall bear all fees and costs incurred in connection with the Tax Proceeding or Tax Claim following the Accounting Firm’s determination.

The obligation to make payments pursuant to this Section 3.02(a) shall not affect a Party’s right, if any, to receive payments under Section 3.02(b) or otherwise be indemnified under this Agreement.
