Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger (page 115) Tax matters associated with the merger are complicated. The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger to an NSH unitholder will depend, in part, on such unitholder’s particular circumstances. The tax discussions in this proxy statement/prospectus are limited to the U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to U.S. holders that hold their NSH units as capital assets and acquired their NSH units in exchange for cash, and these discussions have only limited application to other unitholders, including those subject to special rules under the Merger AgreementU.S. federal income tax laws. NSH unitholders are urged to consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the U.S. federal, such state, local and foreign tax consequences of the merger that any will be applicable to them. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the merger is intended to qualify as a “merger” of NSH and the Partnership within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated under Section 708 of the Code, with the Partnership treated as the continuing partnership and NSH as the terminated partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes following the merger. It is a condition to Tudou's NSH’s obligation to close would complete the merger that it receive a written opinion from Wachtell Lipton (or another nationally recognized tax counsel reasonably acceptable to NSH) to the effect that no gain or loss should be recognized, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, by NSH unitholders that are “United States persons” for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to the exchange of NSH units for common units pursuant to the merger, other than gain or loss, if any, resulting from any (1) decrease in an NSH unitholder’s share of partnership liabilities pursuant to Section 752 of the Code, (2) amounts paid to NSH, the Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries pursuant to certain provisions of the merger agreement, (3) actual or deemed distributions to NSH or NSH unitholders of cash or other property (other than common units), (4) receipt of cash in lieu of fractional common units in the merger, or (5) actual or deemed assumption by the Partnership of any liabilities of NSH or any of its subsidiaries. The opinion may be subject to customary limitations and exceptions, including that it will not apply to any NSH unitholder whose tax basis in its NSH units is less than its share of NSH’s tax basis (including basis resulting from Section 743 adjustments) in common units deemed distributed by NSH. It is a condition to the Partnership’s obligation to effect the merger that it receive a written opinion from Sidley Austin (or another nationally recognized tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and NSH) to the effect that no gain or loss should be satisfied; recognized by existing unaffiliated common unitholders as a result of the merger, other than gain, if any, resulting from any (1) decrease in partnership liabilities pursuant to Section 752 of the Code, or (2) amounts paid to or on behalf of the Partnership by any other person pursuant to certain provisions of the merger agreement. In addition, it is a condition to each party’s obligation to complete the merger that the Partnership receive a written opinion from Sidley Austin (or another nationally recognized tax counsel reasonably acceptable to the Partnership and NSH) to the effect that (1) at least 90% of the current gross income of the Partnership constitutes qualifying income within the meaning of Section 7704(d) of the Code and the Partnership is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 7704(c) of the Code, and (2) the adoption of the amended and restated partnership agreement, the merger, and the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement will not cause the Partnership to be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, U.S. holders of NSH units generally are not expected to recognize gain or loss, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with respect to the exchange of NSH units for common units pursuant to the merger, other than (1) gain or loss, if any, resulting from any (A) decrease in an NSH unitholder’s share of partnership liabilities pursuant to Section 752 of the Code, (B) amounts paid to NSH, the Partnership or any of their respective subsidiaries pursuant to certain provisions of the merger agreement, (C) actual or deemed distributions to NSH or NSH unitholders of cash or other property (other than common units), (D) receipt of cash in lieu of fractional common units in the merger, or (E) actual or deemed assumption by the Partnership of any liabilities of NSH or any of its subsidiaries, or (2) to the extent any NSH unitholder’s adjusted tax basis in its NSH units is less than its share of NSH’s adjusted tax basis in the common units deemed distributed by NSH. These opinions will be based on representations made by NSH, the Partnership and others and on customary factual assumptions, as well as certain covenants and undertakings. Opinions of counsel are subject to certain limitations and are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or any court. NSH and the Partnership have not sought and do not intend to seek any rulings from the IRS regarding any matters relating to the merger. NSH unitholders should read the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” for a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the merger. Tax matters can be complicated, and the tax consequences to a particular holder will depend on such holder’s facts and circumstances. NSH unitholders should consult their own tax advisors to determine the specific tax consequences to them of the merger. Other Information Related to the Merger No Appraisal Rights (page 61) NSH unitholders do not have appraisal rights under applicable law or contractual appraisal rights under the NSH limited liability company agreement or the merger agreement. For additional information, please see “The Merger—No Appraisal Rights” beginning on page 61. Antitrust and Regulatory Matters (page 61) The merger is subject to both state and federal antitrust laws. Under the rules applicable to non-corporate entities, no filing is required under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). However, the Partnership or NSH may receive requests for information concerning the proposed merger and related transactions from the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, or DOJ, or individual states.
