Each Party shall cooperate with the other Party in connection with obtaining such IRS ruling and/or Unqualified Tax Opinion. The Party proposing to enter in a Restricted Transaction shall reimburse each member of the Group of the other Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the such Group in connection with requesting or obtaining an IRS ruling and/or an Unqualified Tax Opinion pursuant to this Section 7.02(a) within 10 Business Days of receiving an invoice from such other Party therefor.
