Straddle Periods (i) For purposes of Section 8.1(a)(i) and 8.1(b)(i), in the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a "Straddle Period"), the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be:
(1) in the case of Taxes that are either (x) based upon or related to income, or receipts, or (y) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible), deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the taxable year ended with (and included) the Closing Date;
(2) in the case of Taxes that are based upon gross premiums deemed equal to the amount that would be payable with respect to the premium written as of the Closing Date; and
(3) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the assets of the Acquired Subsidiaries , or otherwise measured by the level of any item, 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,
(ii) To the extent permitted under applicable Law, Parent and Purchaser shall take all actions reasonably necessary to terminate the taxable year of the Acquired Subsidiaries on the Closing Date. To the extent any such taxable year of the Acquired Subsidiaries is terminated on the Closing Date, the parties hereto agree to cause the Acquired Subsidiaries to file all Tax Returns for the period including the Closing Date on the basis that the relevant taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date, unless the relevant taxing authority will not accept a Tax Return filed on that basis.
Straddle Period Taxes Seller shall, at its own expense, prepare and timely file all Tax Returns relating to all real property Taxes, personal property Taxes or similar ad valorem obligations levied (i) on the owner of the Transferred Loans for any taxable period that begins before the Cut-Off Time and ends after the Cut-Off Time and (ii) on the owner of all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets for any taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (each such taxable period, a “Straddle Period”, and such Taxes, “Straddle Period Taxes”), whether imposed or assessed before or after the Cut-Off Time or the Closing Date, as appropriate. Buyers shall be liable for and shall indemnify Seller, its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending after the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and after the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Seller shall be liable for and shall indemnify Buyers, their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents, and representatives against all liability for the amount of such Straddle Period Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending before the Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and ending on or before the Closing Date for all other CIT Bank Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Any credits relating to a Straddle Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant Straddle Period ended at the Cut-Off Time or on the Closing Date, as appropriate. Any material Tax Return for a Straddle Period shall be submitted to Buyers by Seller at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of such Tax Return (taking valid extensions into account). Buyers will pay to Seller, within two (2) Business Days after the filing of any such Tax Return by Seller, an amount equal to the portion of the Straddle Period Taxes reflected on such Tax Return for which Buyers are liable under this Section 6.11. For the avoidance of doubt, Straddle Period Taxes do not include any Taxes owed by an Obligor with respect to real property securing any Transferred Loan.
Straddle Period In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:
(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and
(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

The unpaid Taxes of the Company did not, as of the Company Balance Sheet Date, exceed the reserve for Tax liability (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the face of the financial statements (rather than in any notes thereto). Since the Company Balance Sheet Date, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has incurred any liability for Taxes outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past custom and practice. As of the Closing Date, the unpaid Taxes of the Company and its subsidiaries will not exceed the reserve for Tax liability (excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) set forth on the books and records of the Company.
