Plan of Allocation 6.1 After the Settlement Effective Date, the Settlement Administrator shall cause the Net Settlement Amount to be allocated and distributed to Current Participants, Authorized Former Participants, and their Beneficiaries or Alternate Payees, in accordance with the Plan of Allocation set forth in this Article 6 and as ordered by the Court. 6.2 To be eligible for a distribution from the Net Settlement Amount, a person must be a Current Participant, an Authorized Former Participant, or a Beneficiary or Alternate Payee of such a person. 6.2.1 Current Participants shall receive their Settlement payments as contributions to one or more of their accounts in the Plans, as provided in Paragraph 6.4, unless the Current Participant is a Zero Account Balance Current Participant entitled to a payment by check in accordance with Paragraph 6.5. 6.2.2 Authorized Former Participants shall receive their Settlement payments in the form of a check, as provided in Paragraph 6.6 below. 6.2.3 Beneficiaries shall receive payments by check in amounts corresponding to their entitlement as beneficiaries of the Current Participant or of the Authorized Former Participant with respect to which the payment is made. Alternate Payees shall receive payments by check if and to the extent they are entitled to receive a portion of a Current Participant’s or Authorized Former Participant’s allocation under this Article 6 in accordance with the terms of the applicable Qualified Domestic Relations Order on file with the Plans’ recordkeepers. The Settlement Administrator shall have sole and final discretion to determine the amounts to be paid to Beneficiaries and Alternate Payees in accordance with the Plan of Allocation set forth in this Article 6 and as ordered by the Court, and the Settling Parties shall have no liability for such determinations.
Method of Allocation The Employer must specify in its Adoption Agreement the manner of allocating each annual Employer contribution to this Trust.
Timing and Amount of Allocations of Net Income and Net Loss Net Income and Net Loss of the Partnership shall be determined and allocated with respect to each Partnership Year of the Partnership as of the end of each such year. Subject to the other provisions of this Article 6, an allocation to a Partner of a share of Net Income or Net Loss shall be treated as an allocation of the same share of each item of income, gain, loss or deduction that is taken into account in computing Net Income or Net Loss.
Section 704(c) Allocations Notwithstanding Section 6.5.A hereof, Tax Items with respect to Property that is contributed to the Partnership with an initial Gross Asset Value that varies from its basis in the hands of the contributing Partner immediately preceding the date of contribution shall be allocated among the Holders for income tax purposes pursuant to Regulations promulgated under Code Section 704(c) so as to take into account such variation. With respect to Partnership Property that is contributed to the Partnership in connection with the General Partner’s initial public offering, such variation between basis and initial Gross Asset Value shall be taken into account under the “traditional method” as described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b). With respect to other Properties, the Partnership shall account for such variation under any method approved under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations as chosen by the General Partner. In the event that the Gross Asset Value of any Partnership asset is adjusted pursuant to subsection (b) of the definition of “Gross Asset Value” (provided in Article 1 hereof), subsequent allocations of Tax Items with respect to such asset shall take account of the variation, if any, between the adjusted basis of such asset and its Gross Asset Value in the same manner as under Code Section 704(c) and the applicable Regulations and using the method chosen by the General Partner; provided, however, that the “traditional method” as described in Regulations Section 1.704-3(b) shall be used with respect to Partnership Property that is contributed to the Partnership in connection with the General Partner’s initial public offering. Allocations pursuant to this Section 6.5.B are solely for purposes of Federal, state and local income taxes and shall not affect, or in any way be taken into account in computing, any Partner’s Capital Account or share of Net Income, Net Loss, or any other items or distributions pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.
Tax Allocation Prior to the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to determine a reasonable allocation of the total consideration paid for the Transferred Assets, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.1(d), Section 2.1(i) and Section 3.3, in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to mutually agree to such allocation and shall reduce such agreement to writing, which agreement shall be reflected in an Exhibit 2.1(j) to be approved by Seller and Purchaser prior to Closing. Seller and Purchaser shall jointly and properly execute each party’s respective completed Internal Revenue Service Form 8594, and any other forms or statements required by the Code (or state or local Tax law), Treasury Regulations or the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority (together with any and all attachments required to be filed therewith), which forms and statements will be prepared in a manner consistent with the Purchase Price Allocation. Seller and Purchaser shall file timely such forms and statements with the Internal Revenue Service or other Governmental Authority. The Purchase Price Allocation shall be appropriately adjusted to take into account any subsequent payments under this Agreement and any other subsequent events required to be taken into account under Section 1060 of the Code. Seller and Purchaser shall not file any Tax Return or other documents or otherwise take any position with respect to Taxes that is inconsistent with the Purchase Price Allocation; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be obligated to litigate any challenge to such allocation by any Governmental Authority. Seller and Purchaser shall promptly inform one another of any challenge by any Governmental Authority to any allocation made pursuant to this Section 2.1(j) and agree to consult with and keep one another informed with respect to the state of, and any discussion, proposal or submission with respect to, such challenge.
