Certain Payroll and Tax Matters
Certain Tax Matters (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.2, Contributor shall be responsible for all Taxes incurred by or with respect to the Company, whether resulting from the assets or operations of the Company or otherwise, for all Tax periods or portions thereof ending on or before the Closing, other than Taxes becoming due as a result of actions taken by or on behalf of Acquirer (including, for this purpose, actions taken by the Company on or after the Closing Date). In the event Acquirer pays any such Taxes, Contributor shall reimburse Acquirer therefor within 15 days after the date on which the Taxes are paid and Contributor is notified by Acquirer. (b) Acquirer shall be responsible for all Taxes incurred by or with respect to the Company, whether resulting from the assets or operations of the Company or otherwise, for all Tax periods or portions thereof beginning after the Closing. In the event Contributor pays any such Taxes, Acquirer shall reimburse Contributor therefor within 15 days after the date on which the Taxes are paid and Acquirer is notified by Contributor. (c) The Parties agree that whenever it is necessary for purposes of this Section 5.2 to determine the amount of any Taxes imposed or incurred by or with respect to the contribution of the Interests for a taxable period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) that is allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date, the determination shall be made, in the case of property or ad valorem or franchise Taxes (which are measured by, or based solely upon, capital, debt, or a combination thereof), by prorating such Taxes ratably on a per diem basis and, in the case of other Taxes, by assuming that such portion of the Straddle Period ending on or prior to the Closing Date constitutes a separate taxable period applicable to the Company and by taking into account the actual taxable events occurring during such period (except that exemptions, allowances, and deductions for a Straddle Period that are calculated on an annual or periodic basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned to the period prior to and including the Closing Date ratably on a per diem basis). (d) With respect to any Tax Return attributable to a Straddle Period that is required to be filed after the Closing Date with respect to the Company, Acquirer shall cause such Tax Return to be prepared, cause to be included in such Tax Return all items of income, gain, loss, deduction, and credit required to be included therein, furnish a copy of such Tax Return to Contributor, and cause such Tax Return to be timely filed with the appropriate Tax Authority. Acquirer shall be responsible for the timely payment of all Taxes due with respect to the period covered by such Tax Return, but shall have the right to recover from Contributor the amount of Taxes attributable to the portion of the taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to Section 5.2(b). (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that transfer taxes arise from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such transfer taxes shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Contributor and fifty percent (50%) by Acquirer. Contributor shall pay or cause to be paid to the applicable Tax Authority any transfer taxes that are required by Law to collect and remit. Acquirer shall indemnify and hold Contributor harmless from and against its share of any such transfer taxes within thirty (30) days of Contributor’s written demand therefor. The Parties shall provide such certificates and other information and otherwise cooperate to the extent reasonably required to minimize transfer taxes. (f) Each Party shall file, to the extent required by applicable Tax Laws, all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all Taxes for which such Party is responsible hereunder. In addition, each Party shall provide the other Parties with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by such other Parties or otherwise required by applicable Tax Laws in connection with the preparation, execution and/or filing of any Tax Return and other related documentation, any audit or other examination by any Governmental Authority, or any judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes, and each will retain and provide the requesting Party or Parties with any records or information which may be relevant to such return, audit or examination, proceedings or determination. (g) The parties intend that for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) the contribution of the Interests shall be treated as a contribution by Contributor to Acquirer pursuant to Section 721(a) of the Code, subject to Section 707 of the Code, and (ii) the distribution of the Debt Financed Cash Consideration shall qualify as a “debt- financed transfer” under Section 1.707-5(b) of the Treasury Regulations pursuant to Section 5.3 of this Agreement. Any Cash Consideration in excess of the amount treated as a “debt-financed transfer” shall be treated (x) as a reimbursement of Contributor’s preformation expenditures within the meaning of Section 1.707-4(d) of the Treasury Regulations to the greatest extent applicable, and (y) in a transaction subject to treatment under Section 707(a) of the Code, and its implementing Treasury Regulations, as in part a sale, and in part a contribution, by Contributor of the Interests. The Parties agree to file all Tax Returns and otherwise act at all times in a manner consistent with this intended treatment of the contribution of the Interests, the Cash Consideration, and the Acquirer Debt, including disclosing the payment of the Cash Consideration in accordance with the requirements of Section 1.707-3(c)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.
