Tax Refunds Buyer may, at its option, cause the Company to elect, where permitted by applicable Law, to carry forward or carry back any Tax attribute carryover that would, absent such election, be carried back to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of and pay (or cause to be paid) to Seller: (a) any refund of Taxes paid by the Company for any Pre-Closing Tax Period actually received by the Company; or (b) a portion of any refund of Taxes paid by the Company for any Straddle Period (such portion to be allocated consistent with the principles set forth in Section 7.8 hereof) actually received by the Company, in each case, net of any Tax liabilities or increase in Tax liabilities imposed on Buyer or the Company (or any Affiliate thereof) resulting from such refund; provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to any refund to the extent such refund relates to a carryback of a Tax attribute from any period ending after the Closing Date. Buyer shall pay (or cause to be paid) the amounts described in the second sentence of this Section 7.8 within thirty (30) days after the actual receipt of the Tax refund giving rise to Buyer’s obligation to make payment hereunder with respect thereto. At the request of Seller, Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in obtaining any such refunds for which Seller is entitled pursuant to this Section 7.8, including through the filing of amended Tax Returns or refund claims as prepared by Seller, at the expense of Seller; provided, however, that any such amended Tax Return shall be prepared by Seller, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered drafts of any such amended Tax Return to Buyer for its review prior to the time such amended Tax Return may be filed and any such amended Tax Return shall be subject to the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and provided, further, that Buyer shall not be required to cooperate with Seller in obtaining such refunds (or, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, consent to the filing of such amended Tax Return) if such refund could reasonably be expected to adversely affect Buyer or the Company (or any Affiliate thereof) in any Straddle Period or Post-Closing Period.
Straddle Period Tax Allocation The Company will, unless prohibited by applicable law, close the taxable period of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date. If applicable law does not permit the Company to close its taxable year 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 the Selling Members for the period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date (except that the Members shall not be responsible for Taxes to the extent of any reserve or accrual for Taxes on the Closing Balance Sheet that are included in the Closing Working Capital described in Section 2.4(b)(i)), and (ii) to Purchaser 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 closing of the books and records of the Company 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. Property or ad valorem Taxes however shall be apportioned by assuming that an equal portion of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period is allocable to each day in such Straddle Period.
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.
Tax Liability The Authorized Participant shall be responsible for the payment of any transfer tax, sales or use tax, stamp tax, recording tax, value added tax and any other similar tax or government charge applicable to the creation or redemption of any Basket made pursuant to this Agreement, regardless of whether or not such tax or charge is imposed directly on the Authorized Participant. To the extent the Trustee, the Sponsor or the Trust is required by law to pay any such tax or charge, the Authorized Participant agrees to promptly indemnify such party for any such payment, together with any applicable penalties, additions to tax or interest thereon.
Tax Contest Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.5, the Seller shall have the right to represent the ELN Companies’ interests in any Tax Contest relating to Tax liabilities for which the Seller would be required to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Article 8 and which relate to any Pre-Closing Period; provided, however, that the Seller shall have no right to represent the ELN Companies’ interests in any Tax Contest unless (i) the Seller shall have first notified the Purchaser in writing of their intention to do so within thirty days of receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim for Taxes, (ii) shall have agreed with the Purchaser in writing that, as between the Purchaser and the Seller, the Seller shall be liable for any Taxes that result from such Tax Contest and (iii) shall have paid to the Purchaser an amount equal to the amount of such Taxes required to be paid by the Company as and when required under Applicable Law, notwithstanding that such Tax Contest many not have been finally determined. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (A) the Seller shall not have given notice of their election to represent the Company’s interests in the Tax Contest within such 30-day period, (B) the Seller shall fail to conduct such defense diligently and in good faith or (C) the Purchaser shall reasonably determine that use of counsel selected by the Seller to represent the Purchaser would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict of interest, then in each such case the Purchaser shall have the right to control the defense, compromise or settlement of the Tax Contest with counsel of its choice at the Seller’s sole cost and expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not be entitled to settle, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed by the Purchaser, and may not be withheld, conditioned and delayed if the Seller has indemnified the Purchaser in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser against the effects of any such settlement.
Claim Notice A Party that seeks indemnity under this Article X (an "Indemnified Party") will give written notice (a "Claim Notice") to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (an "Indemnifying Party"), whether the Damages sought arise from matters solely between the Parties or from Third Party Claims. The Claim Notice must contain (i) a description and, if known, estimated amount (the "Claimed Amount") of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of facts then known by the Indemnified Party, and (iii) a demand for payment of those Damages. No delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability for Damages or obligation hereunder except to the extent of any Damages caused by or arising out of such failure.
