Common use of Indemnification Obligations Net of Taxes Clause in Contracts

Indemnification Obligations Net of Taxes. The parties intend that any Loss subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Article III will be net of Taxes. Accordingly, the amount which an Indemnifying Party is required to pay to an Indemnitee will be adjusted to reflect any tax benefit to the Indemnitee from the underlying Loss and to reflect any Taxes imposed upon the Indemnitee as a result of the receipt of such payment. Such an adjustment will first be made at the time that the indemnity payment is made and will further be made, as appropriate, to take into account any change in the liability of the Indemnitee for Taxes that occurs in connection with the final resolution of an audit by a taxing authority. For purposes of this Section 3.6, the value of such tax benefit shall be an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of any present or future deduction allowable to the Indemnitee by the Code, or other applicable Law, as a result of the underlying Loss and (y) the highest statutory rate applicable under Section 11 of the Code, or other applicable Law. To the extent permitted by Law, the parties will treat any indemnity payment as a capital contribution made by Pride to Seahawk or as a distribution made by Seahawk to Pride, as the case may be, on the date recited above on which the parties entered into the Agreement.
