PAYMENTS AND TAX REFUNDS

2.1 Payment of Taxes.

(a) With respect to any Tax Return required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement, the Responsible Party shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Taxing Authority in a timely manner any Taxes due in respect of any such Tax Return.

(b) In the case of any Tax Return for which the Party that is not the Responsible Party is obligated pursuant to this Agreement to pay all or a portion of the Taxes reported as due on such Tax Return, the Responsible Party shall notify the other Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Taxes and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such other Party and the Party receiving such notice shall pay such amount to the Responsible Party upon the later of five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due and fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of such notice.

2.2 Responsibility of Fox . Fox shall pay and be responsible for:

(a) any and all Taxes that are attributable to the A&S Business (including any increase in such Tax as a result of a Final Determination) for all Pre-Distribution Periods,

(b) any and all Taxes that are attributable to the Fox Retained Business (including any increase in such Tax as a result of a Final Determination) for all Tax Periods, and

-9-

(c) any and all Taxes due with respect to or required to be reported on any Fox Separate Return (including any increase in such Tax as a result of a Final Determination) for all Tax Periods.

2.3 Responsibility of Newco. Newco shall pay and be responsible for any and all Taxes due that are attributable to the A&S Business (including any increase in such Tax as a result of a Final Determination) for all Post-Distribution Periods.

2.4 Determination of Tax Attributable to the A&S Business. In the case of any Straddle Return that reflects Taxes of the A&S Business and Taxes of the Fox Retained Business, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to reasonably and fairly apportion any amount shown as due on such Straddle Return between Newco Taxes and Fox Taxes on the basis of an appropriate financial metric, including, for example, the relative EBITDAs of the A&S Business and the relevant Fox Retained Business in the applicable jurisdiction.

2.5 Allocation of Employment Taxes and Deductions. Liability for Employment Taxes shall be determined pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement.

2.6 Tax Refunds.

(a) Fox shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes the liability for which is allocated to Fox pursuant to this Agreement.

(b) Newco shall be entitled to all Refunds of Taxes the liability for which is allocated to Newco pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Newco shall pay to Fox any Refund received by Newco or any member of the Newco Group that is allocable to Fox pursuant to this Section 2.6 no later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Refund. Fox shall pay to Newco any Refund received by Fox or any member of the Fox Group that is allocable to Newco pursuant to this Section 2.6 no later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Refund. For purposes of this Section 2.6(c), any Refund that arises as a result of an offset, credit or other similar benefit in respect of Taxes other than a receipt of cash shall be deemed to be received on the date on which payment of the Tax that would have otherwise been paid absent such offset, credit or other similar benefit is due (determined without taking into account any applicable extensions).

2.7 Tax Benefits. If (a) one Party is responsible for a Tax pursuant to this Agreement or under applicable Law and (b) the other Party is entitled to a deduction, credit or other Tax benefit relating to such Tax, then the Party entitled to such deduction, credit or other Tax benefit shall pay to the Party responsible for such Tax the amount of any cash Tax savings realized by the entitled Party as a result of such deduction, credit or other Tax benefit, net of any Taxes imposed by any Taxing Authority on, related to, or attributable to, the receipt of or accrual of such Tax benefit, including any Taxes imposed by way of withholding or offset. To the extent that the amount of any Tax benefit in respect of which a payment was made under this

-10-

Section 2.7 is later reduced by a Taxing Authority or in a Tax Contest, the Party that received such payment shall refund such payment to the Party that made such payment to the extent of such reduction. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to determine the existence of and size of any such Tax benefit; provided, that if the Parties cannot agree on such determination, then each Party will appoint a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm to resolve such dispute. If such firms are unable to agree on a resolution within thirty (30) days after the submission of such dispute to such firms, then the Parties agree that the value of the Tax benefit will be deemed equal to the arithmetic mean of Fox’s and Newco’s respective reasonable determinations.

2.8 Prior Agreements. Except as set forth in this Agreement and in consideration of the mutual indemnities and other obligations of this Agreement, any and all prior Tax sharing or allocation agreements or practices between any member of the Fox Group and any member of the Newco Group shall be terminated with respect to the Newco Group and the Fox Group as of the Distribution Date.

To the extent that the positions taken on any Tax Return would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Tax position of the Party other than the Preparing Party (the “Reviewing Party”), or for which the Reviewing Party has an indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 5.1, the Preparing Party shall prepare the portions of such Tax Return that relate to the business of the Reviewing Party (the Fox Retained Business or the A&S Business, as the case may be) or the Reviewing Party’s indemnification obligation in a manner that is consistent with past practices, accounting methods, elections and conventions (“Past Practices”) unless a contrary position would not have a material adverse impact on the Tax position (or liability under this Agreement) of the Reviewing Party or unless otherwise required by applicable Law. In the case of a Tax Return that is not required to be filed more frequently than quarterly, the Preparing Party shall provide a draft of such Tax Return (or to the

-11-

extent practicable the portion of such Tax Return that relates to Taxes for which the Reviewing Party has an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement), along with a statement setting forth the calculation of the Tax shown as due and payable on such Tax Return for which the Reviewing Party has an indemnification obligation, to the Reviewing Party for its review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the Due Date for such Tax Return and shall modify such portion of such Tax Return before filing to include the Reviewing Party’s reasonable comments, provided, that nothing herein shall prevent the Preparing Party from timely filing any such Tax Return and nothing herein shall require the Preparing Party to accept any comments to the extent such comments would render the Preparing Party, exercising reasonable discretion in good faith, unable to sign such Tax Return. In the event that Past Practice is not applicable to a particular item or matter, the Preparing Party shall determine the reporting of such item or matter in good faith. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed issues with respect to such Tax Returns. Any disputes that the Parties are unable to resolve shall be resolved by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 9.1. In the event that any dispute is not resolved (whether pursuant to good faith negotiations among the Parties or by the Accounting Firm) prior to the Due Date for the filing of any such Tax Return, then such Tax Return shall be timely filed by the Preparing Party and the Parties agree to amend such Tax Return, as applicable, as necessary to reflect the resolution of such dispute in a manner consistent with such resolution. In the case of a Tax Return that is required to be filed quarterly or more frequently, the Preparing Party shall provide a draft of such Tax Return (or to the extent practicable the portion of such Tax Return that relates to Taxes for which the Reviewing Party has an indemnification obligation pursuant to this Agreement), along with a statement setting forth the calculation of the Tax shown as due and payable on such Tax Return for which the Reviewing Party has an indemnification obligation, to the Reviewing Party for its review such that the Reviewing Party has a reasonable opportunity to provide comments to such Tax Return, and the Parties have the opportunity to discuss such comments and agree to revisions to such Tax Return (if any), prior to the Due Date for such Tax Return.

3.4 Cooperation. The Parties shall provide, and shall cause their Affiliates to provide, assistance and cooperation to one another in accordance with Article VII with respect to the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, including providing information required to be provided in Article VIII.

3.5 Reporting of the Transactions

(a) The Tax treatment of any step in or portion of the Transactions shall be reported on each applicable Tax Return and in connection with any applicable Tax Contest consistently with (i) the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions and (ii) the treatment of payments between the Fox Group and the Newco Group as set forth in Section 5.4, in each case to the extent relevant and unless there is not a Reasonable Basis for such treatment or there has been a Final Determination to the contrary. In the event that a Preparing Party shall determine that there is no Reasonable Basis for such Tax treatment, such Party shall notify the other Party no later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to filing the relevant Tax Return and the Parties shall attempt in good faith to agree on the manner in which the relevant portion of the Transactions shall be reported; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Preparing Party from timely filing any such Tax Return and nothing herein shall require the Preparing Party to accept any comments to the extent such comments would render the Preparing Party, exercising reasonable discretion in good faith, unable to sign such Tax Return.

-12-

(b) After the date hereof, the Parties shall negotiate and cooperate in good faith to determine whether a protective election under Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder for Newco and each member of the Newco Group (or any member of the Fox Group that participates in any Internal Distribution) with respect to the Distribution (a “Section 336(e) Election”) shall be beneficial. Such cooperation shall include the provision by Fox of any information reasonably necessary to make such determination. If the Parties determine that a Section 336(e) Election would be beneficial:

(i) Fox, Ainge and Newco shall cooperate in making the Section 336(e) Election, including by filing any statements, amending any Tax Returns or taking such other action reasonably necessary to carry out the Section 336(e) Election; and

(ii) if one or more of the Transactions fails to qualify (in whole or in part) for the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions and Newco or any member of the Newco Group (or any member of the Fox Group that participates in an Internal Distribution) realizes an increase in Tax basis (the “Section 336(e) Tax Basis”), then the cash Tax savings realized by Newco and each member of the Newco Group (or any member of the Fox Group that participates in an Internal Distribution) as a result of the Section 336(e) Tax Basis shall be shared between Fox and Newco in the same proportion as the Taxes imposed on the Transactions giving rise to the Section 336(e) Tax Basis were borne by Fox and Newco (after giving effect to the indemnification obligations in this Agreement).

3.6 Straddle Period Tax Allocation . Fox and Newco shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to close the taxable year of Newco and each member of the Newco Group for all Tax purposes as of the close of the Distribution Date to the extent permitted by applicable Law. If applicable Law does not permit Newco or a member of the Newco Group, as the case may be, to close its taxable year on the Distribution Date, then the allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes or other amounts attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on, or beginning after, the Distribution Date shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of Newco or such member of the Newco Group as of the close of the Distribution Date, except that in the case of any such Taxes attributable to an equity interest in any partnership or other “flowthrough” entity or controlled foreign corporation, as if the taxable period of such partnership or other “flowthrough” entity or controlled foreign corporation ended as of the close of business on the Distribution Date; provided, that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis shall be allocated between such portions in proportion to the number of days in each such portion. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 3.6 shall require Fox or Newco to cause a change in taxable year of any member of the Newco Group.

3.7 Amended Returns and Carrybacks.

(a) Except as expressly provided in Section 3.3 to reflect the resolution of any dispute, (i) Newco shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Newco Group to, file or

-13-

allow to be filed any request for an Adjustment for any Pre-Distribution Period or Straddle Period without the prior written consent of Fox, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (ii) Fox shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Fox Group to, file or allow to be filed any request for an Adjustment for any Pre-Distribution Period or Straddle Period if the result would be to increase any liability of Newco or any member of the Newco Group either (A) under this Agreement or (B) for a Post-Distribution Period, in each case without the prior written consent of Newco, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(b) The carryback of any loss, credit or other Tax Attribute from any Post-Distribution Period shall be in accordance with the provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations (and applicable state, local or foreign Laws). Except to the extent otherwise consented to by Fox or prohibited by applicable Law, Newco shall, and shall cause each member of the Newco Group to, make any available elections to waive the right to carry back any Tax Attribute from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Distribution Date to a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Distribution Date. In the event that Newco (or the appropriate member of the Newco Group) is prohibited by applicable Law to relinquish, waive or otherwise forgo such a carryback (or Fox consents to such a carryback), Fox will cooperate with Newco at Newco’s expense in seeking (and, to the extent necessary, attempting to obtain the consent of Xxxxxxx under Section 3.8 of the Xxxxxxx TMA) from the appropriate Taxing Authority such Refund as reasonably would result from such carryback, to the extent that such Refund is directly attributable to such carryback and allocable to Newco pursuant to Section 2.6, and shall pay over to Newco the amount of such Refund (net of any Taxes imposed by any Taxing Authority on, related to, or attributable to, the receipt of or accrual of such Refund, including any Taxes imposed by way of withholding or offset) within ten (10) days after such Refund is received.

(c) Newco shall not, and shall cause each member of the Newco Group not to, without the prior written consent of Fox, make any affirmative election to carry back any Tax Attribute from a taxable period or portion thereof ending after the Distribution Date to a taxable period or portion thereof ending on or before the Distribution Date, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(d) Receipt of consent by Newco or a member of the Newco Group from Fox pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.7 shall not limit or modify Newco’s continuing indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V.

3.8 Tax Attributes.

(a) Fox shall reasonably and in good faith advise Newco in writing of the amount, if any, of any Tax Attributes arising in a Pre-Distribution Period that shall be allocated or apportioned to the Newco Group under applicable Law; provided, that with respect to the determination of Tax basis of assets transferred to Newco, Fox shall make such determination reasonably and in good faith and consistent with the books and records of Fox and its Subsidiaries. Fox, all members of the Fox Group, Newco and all members of the Newco Group shall prepare all Tax Returns in accordance with such written notice unless there is not a Reasonable Basis for such determination or otherwise required by a Final Determination. For

-14-

the avoidance of doubt, Fox shall not be required to create or cause to be created any books and records or reports or other documents based thereon that are of the type customarily prepared by outside legal, financial or accounting advisors (including, without limitation, “earnings & profits studies,” “basis studies” or similar determinations) in order to comply with this Section 3.8.

(b) To the extent that the amount of any Tax Attribute is later reduced or increased by a Taxing Authority or Tax Contest, such reduction or increase shall be allocated to the Party to which such Tax Attribute was allocated pursuant to Section 3.8(a).

3.9 Expenses . Except as provided in Section 9.1, each Party shall bear its own expenses incurred in connection with this Article III.

4.2 Restrictions Relating to the Distribution.

(a) Fox, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Fox Group, hereby covenants and agrees that no member of the Fox Group will take, fail to take, or permit to be taken any action that would be a Fox Disqualifying Action. “Fox Disqualifying Action” shall mean (a) any breach by Fox or any member of the Fox Group or, at or prior to the Effective Time, by Newco or any member of the Newco Group, of any representation, warranty or covenant made by them in this Agreement or (b) any action that (i) is within the control of Fox or any member of the Fox Group or, at or prior to the Effective Time, Newco or any member of the Newco Group and (ii) could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions, other than, in the case of clause (b), any action in the ordinary course of business, in each case of clauses (a)–(b), that causes the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions to be lost (in whole or in part); provided, however, that the term “Fox Disqualifying Action” shall not include any action expressly required by the Distribution Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or that is undertaken pursuant to the Internal Restructuring or the Distribution.

(b) Newco, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Newco Group, hereby covenants and agrees that no member of the Newco Group will take, fail to take, or permit to be taken any action that would be a Newco Disqualifying Action. “Newco Disqualifying Action” shall mean: (a) any breach by Newco or any member of the Newco Group after the Effective Time of any representation, warranty or covenant made by them in this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, other than in Section 4.1(b)) or (b) any action after the Effective Time that (i) is within the control of Newco or any member of the Newco Group and (ii) could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions, other than, in the case of clause (b), any action in the ordinary course of business, in each case of clauses (a)–(b), that causes the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions to be

-16-

lost (in whole or in part); provided, that (x) the term “Newco Disqualifying Action” shall not include any action expressly required by the Distribution Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or that is undertaken pursuant to the Internal Restructuring or the Distribution; and (y) in the event that Fox shall have waived the condition set forth in Section 7.7 of the Merger Agreement, the term “Newco Disqualifying Action” shall not include any action taken by Newco or any member of the Newco Group that causes the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions to be lost on or after the date of such waiver by Fox unless, prior to consummating the Distribution, Fox shall have received a “will” opinion, without substantive qualifications, of a nationally recognized Law or accounting firm, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Ainge, confirming the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions. Subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence, any breach of the covenants contained in Section 4.2(c) and Section 4.2(d) shall constitute a Newco Disqualifying Action (notwithstanding any delivery of an Unqualified Tax Opinion or Fox’s waiver of Newco’s obligation to deliver an Unqualified Tax Opinion).

(c) Newco shall comply with the terms of the Newco Securities in all material respects, including that Newco will not attempt to exercise any call feature of the Newco Securities prior to the five-year anniversary of the issue date of the Newco Securities or permit any member of the Newco Group to take any such action; provided, that Newco shall be permitted to refinance the Newco Securities if doing so does not result a change in issuer or in the refinanced Newco Securities having an earlier maturity date.

(d) During the Restricted Period, Newco:

(i) shall continue and cause to be continued the active conduct of the A&S Business for purposes of Section 355(b)(2) of the Code, taking into account Section 355(b)(3) of the Code,

(ii) shall not voluntarily dissolve or liquidate itself or any member of the Newco Group (including any action that is a liquidation for U.S. federal income tax purposes), except for (A) any dissolution or liquidation of the Direct Sales Entities and any such dissolution or liquidation of a wholly owned subsidiary (other than Newco or an Internal Restricted Entity) into its parent entity where both the subsidiary and the parent entity are members of the Newco Group or (B) in any transaction that constitutes a reorganization of such member under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code,

(iii) shall not (1) enter into any Proposed Acquisition Transaction or, to the extent Newco has the right to prohibit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction, permit any Proposed Acquisition Transaction to occur, (2) redeem or otherwise repurchase (directly or through an Affiliate) any stock, or rights to acquire stock, other than repurchases satisfying the requirements of Section 4.05(1)(b) of Revenue Procedure 96-30, 1996-1 C.B. 696 (as in effect prior to the release of Revenue Procedure 2003-48, 2003-2 C.B. 86), (3) amend its certificate of incorporation (or other organizational documents), or take any other action, whether through a stockholder vote or otherwise, affecting the relative voting rights of its capital stock (including through the conversion of any capital stock into another class of capital stock), (4) merge or consolidate with any other Person (other than pursuant to the Merger) or (5) take any other action or actions

-17-

(including any action or transaction that would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with any representation made in the Tax Certificates) that in the aggregate (and taking into account the Merger and any other transactions described in this Section 4.2(d)(iii)) would, when combined with any other direct or indirect changes in ownership of Newco capital stock pertinent for purposes of Section 355(e) of the Code (including the Merger), have the effect of causing or permitting one or more Persons (whether or not acting in concert) to acquire directly or indirectly stock representing a 50% or greater interest in Newco or would reasonably be expected to result in a failure to preserve the Tax-Free Status of the External Transactions,

(iv) shall not and shall not permit any member of the Newco Group to take any of the actions specified in Exhibit B hereto,² and

(v) shall not and shall not permit any member of the Newco Group other than the Direct Sales Entities, to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of or agree to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose (including in any transaction treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a sale, transfer or disposition) of assets (including, any shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary) that, in the aggregate, constitute 40% or more of the consolidated gross assets of Newco or the Newco Group. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to (1) sales, transfers or dispositions of assets in the ordinary course of business, (2) any cash paid to acquire assets from an unrelated Person in an arm’s-length transaction, (3) any assets transferred to a Person that is disregarded as an entity separate from the transferor for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (4) any mandatory or optional repayment (or pre-payment) of any indebtedness of Newco or any member of the Newco Group. The percentages of gross assets or consolidated gross assets of Newco or the Newco Group, as the case may be, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, shall be based on the fair market value of the gross assets of Newco and the members of the Newco Group as of the Distribution Date (excluding, for purposes of this computation, any assets held by the Direct Sales Entities). For purposes of this Section 4.2(d)(v), a merger of Newco or one of its Subsidiaries with and into any Person that is not a wholly owned Subsidiary of Newco shall constitute a disposition of all of the assets of Newco or such Subsidiary.

(e) Notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by Section 4.2(d), Newco or a member of the Newco Group may take any of the actions or transactions described therein if (i) Newco shall first have requested Fox to obtain a supplemental ruling in accordance with Section 4.3(a) to the effect that such action or transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the Transactions and Fox shall have received such a supplemental ruling in form and substance satisfactory to Fox, (ii) Newco shall have provided to Fox an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Fox (and on which Fox may rely) or (iii) Fox shall have waived in writing the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. In determining whether a ruling or opinion is satisfactory, Fox may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions or representations used as a basis for the ruling or opinion and the

²	Note to Draft: Parties will cooperate in good faith to modify Exhibit B between signing and closing to reflect any changes to the Separation Plan, provided that any such modifications will be made only with the consent of both Fox and Ainge.

-18-

views on the substantive merits. None of the receipt by Fox of a supplemental ruling, delivery of an Unqualified Tax Opinion and Fox’s waiver of Newco’s obligation to deliver an Unqualified Tax Opinion shall limit or modify Newco’s continuing indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V.

(f) For the avoidance of the doubt, notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.2, Newco and Ainge shall be permitted to (i) take any action expressly required by the Transaction Documents, and (ii) adopt or modify a shareholder rights plan (and issue stock in accordance therewith) that is described in or is similar to the shareholder rights plan described in Revenue Ruling 90-11, 1990-1 C.B. 10.

4.3 Procedures Regarding Opinions and Rulings.

(a) If Newco notifies Fox that it desires to take one of the actions described in Section 4.2 (a “Notified Action”), Fox shall cooperate with Newco and use its reasonable best efforts to seek to obtain a supplemental ruling from the IRS or permit Newco to obtain an Unqualified Tax Opinion (on which Fox may rely) for the purpose of permitting Newco to take the Notified Action unless Fox shall have waived the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. If such a ruling is to be sought, Fox shall apply for such ruling and Fox and Newco shall jointly control the process of obtaining such ruling. In no event shall Fox be required to file any ruling request under this Section 4.3(a) unless Newco represents that (i) it has read such ruling request and (ii) all information and representations, if any, relating to any member of the Newco Group, contained in such ruling request documents are (subject to any qualifications therein) true, correct and complete. Newco shall reimburse Fox for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Fox Group in obtaining a ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion requested by Newco within ten (10) days after receiving an invoice from Fox therefor.

(b) Except as provided in Section 4.3(a), following the Effective Time, neither Newco nor any Affiliate of Newco shall seek any guidance from the IRS or any other Taxing Authority (whether written, verbal or otherwise) at any time concerning the Newco Contribution, the Distribution or the other Transactions (including the impact of any transaction on the Newco Contribution, the Distribution or the other Transactions) without the prior approval of Fox (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

5.2 Indemnification Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if either Party (the “Indemnitee”) is required to pay to a Taxing Authority a Tax or to another Person a payment in respect of a Tax that the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) is liable for under this Agreement, including as the result of a Final Determination, the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Tax and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee. The Indemnifying Party shall pay such amount to the Indemnitee no later than the later of (i) five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which such payment is due to the applicable Taxing Authority or (ii) fifteen (15) Business Days after the receipt of notice from the other Party.

5.3 Payment Mechanics. (a) Subject to Section 10.7, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by Fox directly to Newco and by Newco directly to Fox; provided, however, that the Party receiving any payment under this Agreement may designate a member of its Group to receive such payment on its behalf, and the Party making any payment under this Agreement may designate a member of its Group to make such payment on its behalf. All indemnification payments shall be treated in the manner described in Section 5.4.

(b) In the case of any payment of Taxes made by a Responsible Party or Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement for which such Responsible Party or Indemnitee, as the case may be, has received a payment from the other Party, such Responsible Party or Indemnitee shall provide to the other Party a copy of any official government receipt received with respect to the payment of such Taxes to the applicable Taxing Authority (or, if no such official governmental receipts are available, executed bank payment forms or other reasonable evidence of payment).

-21-

5.4 Treatment of Payments. The Parties agree that any payment made among the Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated, to the extent permitted by Law, for all Tax purposes as either (a) a contribution by Fox to Newco or (b) a distribution by Newco to Fox, in each case, made immediately prior to the Distribution, and therefore as an adjustment to the Cash Dividend (in the case of a payment from Fox to Newco, to the extent of the Cash Dividend), unless the Parties mutually agree to instead treat any such payment (or portion thereof) as an adjustment to the portion of the Direct Sales Purchase Price attributable to one or more Direct Sales (as such terms are defined in the Distribution Agreement).

ARTICLE VI

TAX CONTESTS

6.1 Notice. Each Party shall notify the other Party in writing within ten (10) days after receipt by such Party or any member of its Group of a written communication from any Taxing Authority with respect to any pending or threatened audit, claim, proposed assessment or dispute (a “Tax Contest”) concerning any Taxes for which the other Party may be liable pursuant to this Agreement, and thereafter shall promptly forward or make available to such Party copies of notices and communications relating to such Tax Contest.

6.2 Separate Returns. Except as provided in Section 6.5, in the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return, the Party having the liability for the Tax pursuant to Article V shall have the responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the right to communicate with agents of the applicable Taxing Authority and to control, resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest; provided, that such Party shall (a) keep the other Party informed in a timely manner of all actions proposed to be taken by such Party and (b) not settle any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, to the extent such settlement relates to a material indemnification obligation of the other Party under Article V for the relevant taxable period (or portion thereof).

6.3 Joint Return. Except as provided in Section 6.5, in the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Joint Return (which for the avoidance of doubt shall include any Fox Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return), the Preparing Party (which for the avoidance of doubt shall be Fox for any Fox Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return) shall have the responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the right to communicate with agents of the applicable Taxing Authority and to control, resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest; provided, that to the extent that such Tax Contest relates to Taxes for which the other Party has an indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V, the Preparing Party shall (a) defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith, (b) keep the other Party informed in a timely manner of all actions proposed to be taken by the Preparing Party with respect to such Tax Contest (or to the extent practicable the portion of such Tax Contest that relates to Taxes for

Such notice shall attach copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Taxing Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such matters. Such notice shall be provided in a reasonably timely fashion; provided, that in the event that timely notice is not provided, a Party shall be relieved of its obligation to indemnify the other Party only to the extent that such delay results in actual increased costs or actual prejudice to such other Party.

6.5 Tax Contests in Respect of Transaction Taxes.

(a) Newco Tax Contests. Newco shall be exclusively entitled to contest, compromise and settle any Adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed pursuant to any Tax Contest relating to any Transaction Taxes that Newco acknowledges in writing would be solely the liability of Newco; provided, that unless waived by the Parties in writing, or Newco provides assurance of payment reasonably satisfactory to Fox, Newco shall (i) defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith, (ii) keep Fox informed in a timely manner of all actions proposed to be taken by Newco and (iii) provide copies of all correspondence or filings to be submitted to any Taxing Authority or judicial authority to Fox.

(b) Fox Tax Contests. Fox shall be exclusively entitled to contest, compromise and settle any Adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed pursuant to any Tax Contest relating to any Transaction Taxes that Fox acknowledges in writing would be solely the liability of Fox; provided, that unless waived by the Parties in writing, or Fox provides assurance of payment reasonably satisfactory to Newco, Fox shall (i) defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith, (ii) keep Newco informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by Fox and (iii) provide copies of all correspondence or filings to be submitted to any Taxing Authority or judicial authority to Newco.

(i) In the case of any Tax Contest that is not described in Section 6.5(a), (b) or (c)(ii) in which an Adjustment relating to Transaction Taxes is proposed, asserted or assessed, the statutorily liable Party shall initially be entitled to control such Tax Contest, acting reasonably and in good faith; provided, that:

(1) If, during the course of such a Tax Contest, either Party

-23-

becomes aware that the non-controlling Party could reasonably be expected to have a material indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V (or otherwise could be liable for a material amount of Taxes allocated to it under Article V), such Tax Contest shall cease to be governed by this Section 6.5(c)(i) and shall instead be governed by Section 6.5(c)(ii) unless the non-controlling Party waives in writing its right to joint control; and

(2) The controlling Party shall:

(A) keep the non-controlling Party informed in a timely manner of all actions proposed to be taken by the controlling Party;

(B) provide the non-controlling Party with copies of any written materials relating to such potential Adjustment in such Tax Contest received from any Taxing Authority or judicial authority;

(C) consult with the non-controlling Party and timely provide the non-controlling Party with copies of any correspondence or filings to be submitted to any Taxing Authority or judicial authority in connection with such Tax Contest, such that the non-controlling Party has a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such correspondence or filing before it is submitted to any Taxing Authority or judicial authority, and consider in good faith any reasonable comments made by the non-controlling Party;

(D) permit the non-controlling Party to participate in all proceedings with respect to such Tax Proceeding, including by permitting representatives of the non-controlling Party to attend any in person or telephonic meetings relating to such Tax Proceeding with any Taxing Authority or judicial authority;

(E) defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith as if it were the sole party in interest; and

(F) not agree to any settlement without the consent of both Parties, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The failure of the controlling Party to comply with the requirements of clauses (A) through (F) above shall not relieve the non-controlling Party of any liability or obligation that it may have to the controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that the non-controlling Party was actually prejudiced by such failure.

(ii) Fox and Newco shall jointly contest, compromise and settle any Adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed pursuant to any Tax Contest relating to any Transaction Taxes if Newco could reasonably be expected to have a material indemnification obligation pursuant to Article V (or otherwise could be liable for a material amount of Taxes allocated to it under Article V).

-24-

(iii) The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed issues relating to Tax Proceedings governed by this Section 6.5(c).

RETENTION OF RECORDS; ACCESS

8.1 Retention of Records. For so long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (i) sixty (60) days after the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation (including any waivers or extensions thereof) and (ii) seven years after the Distribution Date, the Parties shall retain records, documents, accounting data and other information (including computer data) necessary for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns (collectively, “Tax Records”) in respect of Taxes of any member of either the Fox Group or the Newco Group for any Pre-Distribution Period, Straddle Period, or Post-Distribution Period or for any Tax Contests relating to such Tax Returns. At any time after the Distribution Date that the Fox Group proposes to destroy such records or documents (and subject to any rights of Xxxxxxx to receive such records or documents pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Xxxxxxx TMA), the Fox Group shall first notify the Newco Group in writing and the Newco Group shall be entitled to receive such records or documents proposed to be destroyed. At any time after the Distribution Date that the Newco Group proposes to destroy such records or documents, it shall first notify the Fox Group in writing and the Fox Group shall be entitled to receive such records or documents proposed to be destroyed. The Parties will notify each other in writing of any waivers or extensions of the applicable statute of limitations that may affect the period for which the foregoing records or other documents must be retained.

8.2 Access to Tax Records. The Parties and their respective Affiliates shall reasonably make available to each other for inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax Records relating to the Fox Group or the Newco Group (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any pertinent underlying data accessed or stored on any computer program or information technology system) in their possession and shall permit the other Party and its Affiliates, authorized agents and representatives and any representative of a Taxing Authority or other Tax auditor direct access, during normal business hours upon reasonable notice to any computer program or information technology system used to access or store any Tax Records, in each case to the extent reasonably required by the other Party in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns or financial accounting statements, audits, litigation, or the resolution of items pursuant to this Agreement. The Party seeking access to the records of the other Party shall bear all costs and expenses associated with such access, including any professional fees.

ARTICLE IX

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

9.1 General. In the event of any dispute between the Parties as to any matter covered by this Agreement, the Parties shall appoint a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve such dispute. In this regard, the Accounting Firm shall make determinations with respect to the disputed items based solely on representations made by Fox and Newco and their respective representatives, and not by independent review, and shall function only as an expert and not as an arbitrator and shall be

-26-

required to make a determination in favor of one Party only. The Parties shall require the Accounting Firm to resolve all disputes no later than thirty (30) days after the submission of such dispute to the Accounting Firm, but in no event later than the Due Date for the payment of Taxes or the filing of the applicable Tax Return, if applicable, and agree that all decisions by the Accounting Firm with respect thereto shall be final and conclusive and binding on the Parties. The Accounting Firm shall resolve all disputes in a manner consistent with this Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, in a manner consistent with the Past Practices of Fox and its Subsidiaries, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Parties shall require the Accounting Firm to render all determinations in writing and to set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for such determination. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by the Parties.
