beginning on or after the Closing Date, and
(iii) Taxes imposed upon xxxxx,
or for which the Seller may otherwise be liable, as a result of transactions
occurring on or after the Closing, (c) The indemnities set forth in this
Section 11.1 shall survive, in each case, until the applicable statute of
limitations has expired for each respective fiscal tax year.
11.2 Preparation of Tax Returns. [To be reviewed by Seller’s accountants]
(a) Seller and Seller Equityholder shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns for income of Seller for any closing Tax Period of Seller (including amended Tax Returns) (“Pre-closing Period Returns”). Seller Equityholders shall timely file, or cause to be timely filed, all such Period Returns that are due on or before the Closing Date (giving effect to any extensions thereto). Seller Equityholders, jointly and severally, shall timely pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes imposed upon Seller with respect to such Pre-closing Period Returns.
(b) Seller
Equityholders shall prepare or cause to be prepared and provide Buyer with
Pre-closing Period Returns that are due after the Closing Date (giving effect
to any extensions thereto). Promptly upon the finalization of such Tax Returns
and in any case not later than 60 30 days before the last date for
timely filing of such Tax Returns (giving effect to any valid extensions
thereof), Seller Equityholder shall deliver to Buyer (1) an original of such
Tax Return and (2) a check payable to the appropriate taxing authority in the
amount of any Taxes payable by Seller shown as due thereon in accordance with
Article 7.5 hereinabove). Buyer shall cause such Pre-closing Period Returns to
be executed by the appropriate officer of Seller and shall file such returns,
together with the appropriate payment, if any, on a timely basis.
(c) All Tax Returns that Seller Equityholders are required to prepare or cause to be prepared in accordance with this Section 11.2 shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice, and on such Tax Returns no positions shall be taken, elections made, or method adopted that is inconsistent with positions taken, elections made, or methods used in preparing and filing similar Tax Returns in prior periods (including, but not limited to, positions that would have the effect of deferring income to periods for which Buyer is liable or accelerating deductions to period for which Seller Equityholder is liable).
(d) Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared all Tax Returns of Seller for any and all Reporting Periods ending on and after the Closing Date. Buyer shall timely file, or cause
25
to be timely filed, all such Tax Returns and Buyer shall timely pay, or cause to be paid, all Taxes imposed upon with respect to such Tax Returns.
(e) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns of Seller for any and all Straddle Periods. All Tax Returns for a Straddle Period shall be submitted to Seller Equityholder at least 45 days before the last date for timely filing of such Tax Return (giving effect to any valid extensions thereof), accompanied by a statement calculating in reasonable detail and in accordance with Section 11.2(f) any payments required of Seller Equityholder with respect to the amounts payable by Seller shown as due on such Tax Returns after giving effect to any Tax payments made before the Closing Date. The amount of any Tax payment required of Seller Equityholder under this Section 11.2(e) shall be paid by Seller Equityholder on or before the last date for timely filing such Tax Return (including any valid extensions thereof).
(f) With respect to any Straddle Period, Seller Equityholder shall be responsible only for such Taxes imposed upon income of Seller as are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the day before the Closing Date (less any reserve on the Closing Balance Sheet relating to any such Taxes). Buyer shall be responsible for, and shall timely pay, or cause to be paid, all other Taxes with respect to all Straddle Periods. The Tax liabilities for each Straddle Period for Seller shall, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be determined by closing the books and records of Seller as of the Closing Date by treating each such Straddle Period as if it were a separate Reporting Period, and by employing accounting methods that are consistent with those employed in preparing the Tax Returns for Seller in Pre-closing Period Returns and that do not have the effect of distorting income, receipts, or expenses (taking into account the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), except that (a) transactions occurring on the Closing Date and after the Closing shall be allocated to the taxable year or period that is deemed to begin at the beginning of the day following the Closing Date, (b) exemptions, allowances, or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including 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, and (c) in the case of any Tax imposed upon the ownership or holding of real or personal property, such Taxes shall be prorated based on the percentage of the actual period to which such Taxes relate that precedes the Closing Date
(g) All Tax Returns that Buyer is required to prepare or cause to be prepared in accordance with this Section 11.2 shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and, on such Tax Returns, no positions shall be taken, elections made, or method adopted that is inconsistent with positions taken, elections made, or methods used in preparing and filing similar Tax Returns in prior periods (including, but not limited to, positions that would have the effect of accelerating income to periods for which Seller or its Equityholder is liable or deferring deductions to period for which Buyer is liable).
(h) Seller Equityholders shall be entitled to any credits, rebates, or refunds of Taxes of Seller payable with respect to any Pre-closing Tax Period of Seller and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date. Buyer shall cause the amount of the credits, rebates, or refunds of Taxes to which
26
Seller or its Equityholders are entitled under this Section 11.2(h), but which were received by or credited to Seller after the Closing Date, to be paid to Seller Equityholder (pro rata) within 10 Business Days following such receipt or crediting. Buyer shall send written notice to Seller Equityholder of any such credit, rebate, or refund as soon as possible after Buyer becomes aware of them.
(i) Buyer and Seller Equityholder shall cooperate with one another with respect to Tax matters as more fully set forth in this Section 11. Buyer and Seller Equityholders shall cooperate fully as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, at the other party’s expense,-in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 11 and any audit, litigation, or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request and at the other party’s expense)the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, litigation, or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer and Seller Equityholder agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Seller relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or Seller Equityholder, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (ii) to give the other party reasonable written notice before transferring, destroying, or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Buyer or Seller Equityholder, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records to the extent they would otherwise be destroyed or discarded.
11.3 Certificate of Nonforeign Status. Each of the Seller and Seller Equityholder shall deliver to Buyer at the Closing a certificate of nonforeign status (the “Certificate of Nonforeign Status”) in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b)(2).
12. Expenses. Each of the parties shall pay all of the costs that it incurs incident to the preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of any related obligations, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated, and Seller Equityholders shall pay all of the cost and expenses incurred by Seller.
13. Termination.
