Characterization of Payments. It is the intention of the parties to this Agreement that payments made pursuant to this Agreement are to be treated as relating back to the Distribution as an adjustment to capital (i.e., capital contribution or distribution), and the parties shall not take any position inconsistent with such intention before any Tax Authority, except to the extent that a final determination (as defined in Section 1313 of the Code) with respect to the recipient party causes any such payment not to be so treated.
Characterization of Payments. For all Income Tax purposes, the parties hereto agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (i) any payment required by this Agreement or by the Separation Agreement, as either a contribution by Parent to SpinCo or a distribution by SpinCo to Parent, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Spin-Off and (ii) any payment of interest or non-federal Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the party entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment, in either case, except as otherwise mandated by applicable law or a Final Determination; provided, that in the event it is determined (A) pursuant to applicable law that it is more likely than not, or (B) pursuant to a Final Determination, that any such treatment is not permissible (or that an Indemnified Party nevertheless suffers an Tax detriment as a result of such payment), the payment in question shall be adjusted to place the Indemnified Party in the same after-Tax position it would have enjoyed absent such applicable law or Final Determination.
Characterization of Payments. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law or pursuant to a Final Determination, the parties hereto agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (i) any payment required by this Agreement or by the Transaction Agreement (other than payments of interest), as either a contribution by Parent to Match or a distribution by Match to Parent, as the case may be (which contribution or distribution shall, in the case of any payment made following the Distribution Date, be treated as occurring immediately prior to the Distribution) and (ii) any payment of interest or non-federal Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the party entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment; provided that in the event such treatment is not permissible (or that an Indemnified Party nevertheless suffers a Tax detriment as a result of such payment), the payment in question shall be adjusted to place the Indemnified Party in the same after-tax position it would have enjoyed absent such applicable Law or Final Determination.

Characterization of Payments. For all tax purposes, the parties hereto agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat any payment required by this Agreement as either a contribution by Parent to SpinCo or a distribution by SpinCo to Parent, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Spin-Off, except as otherwise mandated by applicable law or a Final Determination; provided, however, that in the event it is determined (i) pursuant to applicable law, or (ii) pursuant to a Final Determination, that any such treatment is not permissible (or that an Indemnified Party nevertheless suffers an Income Tax or Other Tax detriment as a result of such payment), the payment in question shall be adjusted to place the Indemnified Party in the same after-tax position it would have enjoyed absent such applicable law or Final Determination.
