Seller has timely paid all taxes and other charges that will have been required to be paid by it in respect of its business and the Assets, the non-payment of which would result in a lien or other encumbrance on any Asset, would otherwise adversely affect the Assets or would result in Buyer becoming liable or responsible for such taxes and other charges.
