          (b) Bentley and the members of the Bentley Group shall be responsible for the payment of (and shall be entitled to any refund of or credit for) all Taxes (i) that are attributable to any member of the Bentley Group, other than CPEX Taxes, or (ii) resulting from any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, covenant or obligation of any member of the Bentley Group under this Agreement (collectively, “Bentley Taxes”).

          (c) If, prior to the Distribution, a deposit (including a payment of estimated Taxes) were made with respect to any Tax for which CPEX or the members of the CPEX Group are responsible under this Agreement, such deposit shall be assigned to CPEX and CPEX shall be liable only for the amount of such Tax ultimately due in excess of the applicable deposit. To the extent the amount of such deposit exceeds the amount of Tax attributable to such deposit that is ultimately due, Bentley shall pay such excess over to CPEX within five days after the filing of the applicable Bentley Filed Tax Return.

          (d) Refunds received and the amount of credits claimed by one Party with respect to Taxes for which the other Party or the members of such other Party’s Group are responsible under this Agreement, shall be remitted to such other Party within five days after the first Party receives such refund or files the Tax Return claiming such refund or credit, as applicable. In the event that any such credit is subsequently reduced as a result of any adjustment required by any Governmental Authority, such other Party shall pay the amount of

7

such reduction to the first Party within five days of receiving notice of such reduction from the first Party.

          (e) At CPEX’s request, the Bentley Group shall, at CPEX’s expense, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any refund or credit of a Tax or item included in a Bentley Filed Tax Return to which any member of the CPEX Group is entitled pursuant to this Agreement, including through filing appropriate forms with the applicable Governmental Authority; provided that the Bentley Group shall not be required to comply with such request if Bentley reasonably determines that attempting to obtain such refund or credit will have a material adverse impact on any member of the Bentley Group.

          (f) Except as set forth in this Agreement, any and all prior Tax sharing or allocation agreements or practices between any member of the Bentley Group and any member of the CPEX Group shall be terminated with respect to the CPEX Group as of the Distribution Date, and no member of the CPEX Group shall have any continuing rights or obligations thereunder.
