• Allocation of Straddle Period Taxes In the case of any Straddle Period:

• Tax Adjustments The Company may make such reductions in the Purchase Price, in addition to those required by Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

• Straddle Period Tax Allocation The Company and the Subsidiaries will, unless prohibited by applicable Law, close each of their applicable taxable periods as of the close of business on the Closing Date. If applicable Law does not permit the Company and the Subsidiaries to close any of its taxable years on the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period which includes the Closing Date (but does not begin or end on that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes, if any, attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated (i) to Sellers for the period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) to Buyer for the period subsequent to the Closing Date. Any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a deemed closing of the books and records of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the close of the Closing Date; provided, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, property or ad valorem taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated to the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

• Transaction Taxes Fund is responsible for all taxes, levies, duties, and assessments levied on Services purchased under this Agreement (collectively, “Transaction Taxes”). Computershare is responsible for collecting and remitting Transaction Taxes in all jurisdictions in which Computershare is registered to collect such Transaction Taxes. Computershare shall invoice Fund for such Transaction Taxes that Computershare is obligated to collect upon the furnishing of Services. Fund shall pay such Transaction Taxes according to the terms in Section 7.3. Computershare shall timely remit to the appropriate governmental authorities all such Transaction Taxes that Computershare collects from Fund. To the extent that Fund provides Computershare with valid exemption certificates, direct pay permits, or other documentation that exempts Computershare from collecting Transaction Taxes from Fund, invoices issued for Services provided after Computershare’s receipt of such certificates, permits, or other documentation will not reflect exempted Transaction Taxes. Computershare is solely responsible for the payment of all personal property taxes, franchise taxes, corporate excise or privilege taxes, property or license taxes, taxes relating to Computershare’s personnel, and taxes based on Computershare’s net income or gross revenues relating to Services.

• Straddle Period Allocation For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Tax imposed with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that is allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Income Taxes, Taxes based on receipts, sales or payments and other Taxes that are transaction based, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period prior to and ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of any Income Taxes and Taxes based on receipts, sales or payments and other Taxes that are transaction based, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date, provided that all permitted allowances, credits, exemptions and deductions that are normally computed on the basis of an entire year period (such as depreciation and amortization deductions) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be allocated between the pre-Closing portion of the Straddle Period and the post-Closing portion of the Straddle Period in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

• Straddle Period Taxes Sellers shall, at their 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 Applicable Cut-Off Time and ends after the Applicable Cut-Off Time and (ii) on the owner of all other Purchased Assets for any taxable period that begins before the Applicable Closing Date and ends after the Applicable Closing Date (each such taxable period, a “Straddle Period”, and such Taxes, “Straddle Period Taxes”), whether imposed or assessed before or after the Applicable Cut-Off Time or the Applicable Closing Date, as appropriate. Buyers shall be liable for and shall indemnify Sellers, 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 after the Applicable Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and after the Applicable Closing Date for all other Purchased Assets and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire relevant Straddle Period. Sellers 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 Applicable Cut-Off Time for the Transferred Loans and ending on or before the Applicable Closing Date for all other 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 Applicable Cut-Off Time or on the Applicable Closing Date, as appropriate. Any material Tax Return for a Straddle Period shall be submitted to Buyers by Sellers at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date of such Tax Return (taking valid extensions into account). Buyers will pay to Sellers, within two (2) Business Days after the filing of any such Tax Return by Sellers, 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.

• Distribution Taxes If any Parent Tax Proceeding relating to Distribution Taxes is reasonably likely to give rise to an indemnity obligation of the Acquiror as successor to SpinCo or the JV Group under Section 12 hereof, Acquiror and Parent shall exercise joint control over the disposition of such Parent Tax Proceeding (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall keep each other informed of all material developments with respect to such Parent Tax Proceeding to the extent the other party is not otherwise informed thereof). Parent shall otherwise have the right to elect to control any Parent Tax Proceeding relating to Distribution Taxes; provided that Parent shall keep Acquiror informed of all material developments.

• Tax Benefit If, as the result of any Taxes paid or indemnified against by the Facility Lessee under this Section 9.2, the aggregate Taxes actually paid by the Tax Indemnitee for any taxable year and not subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.2 are less (whether by reason of a deduction, credit, allocation or apportionment of income or otherwise) than the amount of such Taxes that otherwise would have been payable by such Tax Indemnitee (a "Tax Benefit"), then to the extent such Tax Benefit was not taken into account in determining the amount of indemnification payable by the Facility Lessee under paragraph (a) or (c) above and provided no Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (in which event the payment provided under this Section 9.2(e) shall be deferred until the Significant Lease Default or Lease Event of Default has been cured), such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Facility Lessee the lesser of (A) (y) the amount of such Tax Benefit, plus (z) an amount equal to any United States federal, state or local income tax benefit resulting to the Tax Indemnitee from the payment under clause (y) above and this clause (z) (determined using the same assumptions as set forth in the second sentence under the definition of After-Tax Basis) and (B) the amount of the indemnity paid pursuant to this Section 9.2 giving rise to such Tax Benefit; provided, however, that any excess of (A) over (B) shall be carried forward and reduce the Facility Lessee's obligations to make subsequent payments to such Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.2. If it is subsequently determined that the Tax Indemnitee was not entitled to such Tax Benefit, the portion of such Tax Benefit that is required to be repaid or recaptured will be treated as Taxes for which the Facility Lessee must indemnify the Tax Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.2 without regard to paragraph (b) hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Certificateholder Indemnitee shall determine the allocation of any tax benefits, savings, credit, deduction or allocation in its sole good faith discretion and each position to be taken on its tax return shall be in its sole control and it shall not be required to disclose any tax return or related documentation to any Person.

• Tax Attributes (i) Tax attributes with respect to, and the -------------- overpayment of, property taxes, sales and use taxes and franchise taxes which relate primarily to the Company Business and (ii) to the extent provided in the Tax Sharing Agreement, tax attributes with respect to, and the overpayment of, income and payroll taxes which relate to the Company Business or are otherwise allocated to the Company.

• Tax Adjustment During each Lease Year commencing with the Lease -------------- Year 1998, Tenant shall pay, as Additional Charges, an amount (hereinafter referred to as the "TAX ADJUSTMENT AMOUNT") equal to Tenant's Share of the excess of Taxes for each such Lease Year over the amount of Taxes for the Base Year; except that Tenant shall be required to pay only a pro rata amount of the Tax Adjustment Amount for the Lease Year in which the last days of the Term occur, pro rated on a per diem basis. The Tax Adjustment Amount with respect to each Lease Year shall be paid in monthly installments in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month during such Lease Year, commencing January 1, 1998, in an amount estimated from time to time by Landlord and communicated by written notice to Tenant. As soon as practicable following the close of the 1998 and subsequent Lease Years, and receipt of actual tax bills, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement setting forth (a) the actual Tax Adjustment Amount for such Lease Year; (b) the total of the estimated monthly installments of the Tax Adjustment Amount paid to Landlord for such Lease Year; and (c) the amount of any excess or deficiency with respect to such Lease Year. Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord as shown by such statement within thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement. If the total of the estimated monthly installments paid by Tenant during any Lease Year exceeds the actual Tax Adjustment Amount due from Tenant for such Lease Year, at Landlord's option such excess shall be either credited against payments next due hereunder or refunded by Landlord, provided Tenant is not then in default hereunder.
