Tax Laws (a) AVIF represents and warrants that each Fund is currently qualified as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and represents that it will use its best efforts to qualify and to maintain qualification of each Fund as a RIC. AVIF will notify LIFE COMPANY immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that a Fund has ceased to so qualify or that it might not so qualify in the future.
Changes in Tax Laws In the event that, subsequent to the Closing Date, (i) any changes in any existing law, regulation, treaty or directive or in the interpretation or application thereof, (ii) any new law, regulation, treaty or directive enacted or any interpretation or application thereof, or (iii) compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority, agency or instrumentality:
Tax Law The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability for any obligations now or hereafter imposed on the Fund, the Portfolios or the Custodian as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of the United States or of any state or political subdivision thereof. It shall be the responsibility of the Fund to notify the Custodian of the obligations imposed on the Fund with respect to the Portfolios or the Custodian as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of countries other than those mentioned in the above sentence, including responsibility for withholding and other taxes, assessments or other governmental charges, certifications and governmental reporting. The sole responsibility of the Custodian with regard to such tax law shall be to use reasonable efforts to assist the Fund with respect to any claim for exemption or refund under the tax law of countries for which the Fund has provided such information.
Change in Tax Law Any reference to a provision of the Code, Treasury Regulations or any other Applicable Tax Law shall include a reference to any applicable successor provision of the Code, Treasury Regulations or other Applicable Tax Law.
Foreign Tax Compliance Except as otherwise disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, no transaction, stamp, capital or other issuance, registration, transaction, transfer or withholding taxes or duties are payable in China, Hong Kong or Cayman Islands to any PRC, Hong Kong or Cayman Islands taxing authority in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Offered Securities, and the delivery of the Offered Securities to or for the account of the Underwriters.
Foreign Taxes Any amounts payable hereunder, other than payments of interest, principal or premium, if any, in respect of any of the Securities, to an Underwriter shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges or fees of whatsoever nature now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, deducted or withheld or assessed by or on behalf of Australia or any political subdivision thereof or by any jurisdiction, other than the United States or any taxing authority or political subdivision thereof, in which the Bank has a branch, an office or any agency from which payment is made (a “Taxing Authority”), excluding (i) any such tax which would not have been imposed if such Underwriter had no present or former connection with any such jurisdiction other than the performance of its obligations hereunder, (ii) any income or franchise tax imposed on the net income of such Underwriter by any jurisdiction of which such Underwriter is a resident, citizen or domiciliary, or in which such Underwriter is engaged in business and (iii) any tax imposed that would not have been imposed but for the failure by such Underwriter to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with any Taxing Authority if compliance is required by such Taxing Authority as a pre-condition to exemption from, or reduction in rate of, such tax (all such non-excluded taxes, the “Foreign Taxes”). If, by operation of law or otherwise, that portion of amounts payable hereunder represented by Foreign Taxes withheld or deducted cannot be paid or remitted, then amounts payable under this Agreement shall be increased to such amounts as are necessary to yield and remit to such Underwriter amounts which, after deduction of all Foreign Taxes (including all Foreign Taxes payable on such increased payments) equal the amounts that would have been payable if no Foreign Taxes had been so withheld or deducted (the “Additional Amount”); provided, however, that no Additional Amount with respect to any payment or compensation to such Underwriter hereunder shall be required to be paid in the event that such payment or compensation is subject to such Foreign Tax by reason of such Underwriter being connected with the jurisdiction of the Taxing Authority other than by reason of merely receiving payment hereunder.

The consent of such other Parties shall not be withheld unreasonably and shall be deemed to be obtained in the event that a Party (or its Subsidiary) is required to file an amended Tax Return as a result of an Audit adjustment that arose in accordance with Article IX.
