(b) If a member of the Splitco Group supplies information to a member of the Distributing Group at the request of Distributing, or a member of the Distributing Group supplies information to a member of the Splitco Group at the request of Splitco, and an officer of the requesting Group intends to sign a statement or other document under penalties of perjury in reliance upon the accuracy of such information, then a duly authorized officer of the Group supplying such information shall certify, to the best of such officer’s knowledge, the accuracy of the information so supplied.

3.4 Special Rules Relating to the Preparation of Tax Returns.

(a) General Rule. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Company responsible for filing (or causing to be filed) a Tax Return pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2 shall have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion, with respect to such Tax Return to determine (i) the manner in which such Tax Return shall be prepared and filed, including the methods, conventions, practices, principles, positions, and elections to be used and the manner in which any Tax Item shall be reported, (ii) whether any extensions may be requested, (iii) whether an amended Tax Return shall be filed, (iv) whether any claims for refund shall be made, (v) whether any refunds shall be paid by way of refund or credited against any liability for the related Tax and (vi) whether to retain outside firms to prepare or review such Tax Return.

(i) Splitco may not take (and shall cause the members of the Splitco Group not to take) any positions that it knows, or reasonably should know, are inconsistent with the methods, conventions, practices, principles, positions, or elections used by Distributing in preparing any Combined Return, except to the extent that (x) the failure to take such position would be contrary to applicable Tax Law or (y) taking such position would not reasonably be expected to adversely affect any member of the Distributing Group. Splitco and the other members of the Splitco Group shall (x) allocate Tax Items between such Separate Return for which Splitco is responsible and any related Combined Return for which Distributing is responsible that is filed with respect to the same Tax Period in a manner that is consistent with the reporting of such Tax Items on such related Combined Return and (y) make any applicable elections required under applicable Tax Law (including, without limitation, under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)) necessary to effect such allocation.

(c) Election to File Consolidated, Combined or Unitary Tax Returns. Distributing shall have the sole discretion of filing any Tax Return on a consolidated, combined, or unitary basis, if such Tax Return would include at least one member of each Group (or with respect to any Pre-Distribution Period, Tax Items of both the Distributing Business and the Splitco Business) and the filing of such Tax Return is elective under applicable Tax Law.

(d) Filing Claims for Carrybacks. If a Tax Item attributable to or arising from the Splitco Business may be carried back from a Tax Period beginning after the Distribution Date to generate a Tax Benefit on a Combined Return filed with respect to a Tax Period beginning in the Pre-Distribution Period, then, upon the request of Splitco, Distributing may, in its reasonable discretion, file a claim for refund arising from such Tax Benefit. Any such Tax Benefit shall be allocated to Splitco pursuant to Section 2.2(f), except as otherwise provided by Section 2.2(g). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement imposes any obligation on Splitco to carry back any such Tax Items.

(e) Withholding and Reporting. Following the Effective Time, in the event any Compensatory Equity Interests are settled (whether by issuance, exercise, vesting or otherwise) by the corporation that is the issuer or obligor under the Compensatory Equity Interest (the “issuing corporation”) or by another member of the Group to which the issuing corporation belongs, and if the Employing Party with respect to such Compensatory Equity Interests is not a member of the same Group as the issuing corporation, the Company whose Group includes the issuing corporation shall be responsible for withholding the appropriate amount of Taxes upon such settlement (or otherwise making satisfactory arrangements for such withholding) and shall promptly remit to such Employing Party or the applicable Tax Authority an amount in cash equal to the amount required to be withheld in respect of any withholding Taxes. In the application of this Agreement, the Company whose Group includes the issuing corporation shall indemnify such Employing Party for any such withholding Taxes, except to the extent that the Company whose Group includes the issuing corporation shall have remitted such amount to such Employing Party or to the applicable Tax Authority. Distributing shall promptly notify Splitco, and Splitco shall promptly notify Distributing, regarding the settlement of any Compensatory Equity Interest (whether by issuance, exercise, vesting or otherwise) to the extent that, as a result of such settlement, the other party may be entitled to a Tax Benefit or required to pay any Tax, or such information otherwise as may be relevant to the preparation of any Tax Return or payment of any Tax by the other party.

3.5 Section 336(e) Election. After the date hereof, Distributing shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether to make a protective election under Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any corresponding or analogous provisions of state and local Tax Law) in connection with the Transactions with respect to Splitco and any other member of the Splitco Group for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Section 336(e) Election”). If Distributing determines that a Section 336(e) Election would be beneficial:

(a) Distributing and Splitco shall, and shall cause the members of their respective Groups to, cooperate in making the Section 336(e) Election, including by filing any statements, amending any Tax Returns, or taking such other actions as are reasonably necessary to carry out the Section 336(e) Election;

(b) to the extent the Section 336(e) Election becomes effective, each Company agrees not to take any position (and to cause each of its Affiliates not to take any position) that is inconsistent with the Section 336(e) Election on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Proceeding, or otherwise, except as may be required by a Final Determination; and

(c) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any actions taken by Distributing, Splitco or any members of their respective Groups with respect to the making of any Section 336(e) Election, and the preparation of any statements, Tax Returns or other materials in accordance therewith, shall not be considered a breach or nonperformance of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Distributing or Splitco contained in Section 7.1.

The amount of such Tax Benefit shall be the amount by which Taxes are actually reduced (or the amount of a Tax Refund is actually increased) by such Tax Benefit.

4.4 Interest on Late Payments. Payments pursuant to this Agreement that are not made by the date prescribed in this Agreement or, if no such date is prescribed, not later than five (5) business days after demand for payment is made (the “Due Date”) shall bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the Due Date through and including the date of payment at the Interest Rate. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates.

4.5 Initial Determinations and Subsequent Adjustments. The initial determination of the amount of any payment that one Company is required to make to another under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of the Tax Return as filed, or, if the Tax to which the payment relates is not reported in a Tax Return, on the basis of the amount of Tax initially paid to the Tax Authority. The amounts paid under this Agreement shall be redetermined, and additional payments relating to such redetermination shall be made, as appropriate, if as a result of an audit by a Tax Authority or for any other reason (x) additional Taxes to which such determination relates are subsequently paid, (y) a Tax Refund or a Tax Benefit relating to such Taxes is received or realized, or (z) the amount or character of any Tax Item is adjusted or redetermined.

If a payment is made as a result of an audit by a Tax Authority which does not conclude the matter, further adjusting payments will be made, as appropriate, to reflect the outcome of subsequent administrative or judicial proceedings.

4.6 Treatment of Pre-Distribution Period Taxes and Tax Benefits. For purposes of this Agreement, (x) Taxes with respect to a Pre-Distribution Period that were allocated and debited to the Braves Group in accordance with the tax sharing policies of Distributing in effect prior to the Distribution shall be treated as payments that were made by Splitco to Distributing in respect of such Taxes, and (y) Tax Benefits with respect to a Pre-Distribution Period that were allocated and credited to the Braves Group in accordance with the tax sharing policies of Distributing in effect prior to the Distribution as the result of the reduction of Taxes that otherwise would have been allocated to the Media Group, the Formula One Group or the SiriusXM Group shall be treated as payments that were made by Distributing to Splitco in respect of such Tax Benefits.

4.7 Tax Consequences of Payments. For all Tax purposes and to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law, the parties hereto shall treat any payment made between the parties after the Distribution Date pursuant to this Agreement or the Reorganization Agreement as a capital contribution by Distributing to Splitco or a distribution by Splitco to Distributing, as the case may be, immediately prior to the Distribution. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any payment that is made by a party after the Distribution Date pursuant to this Agreement or the Reorganization Agreement shall be increased as necessary so that after making all payments in respect of Taxes imposed on or attributable to such payment, the recipient party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Taxes been imposed.

6.2 Access to Tax Records. Splitco shall make available, and cause its Subsidiaries to make available, to members of the Distributing Group for inspection and copying the portion of any Tax Records in their possession that relate to a Pre-Distribution Period or Post-Distribution Period and which is reasonably necessary for the preparation of a Tax Return by a member of the Distributing Group or any of their Affiliates or with respect to any Tax Proceeding relating to such return.

(a) General Rule. Except as provided in Section 7.5(b) and (c), with respect to any Combined Returns and Separate Returns, the Controlling Party shall have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion, to control, contest, and represent the interests of each member of the Distributing Group and/or the Splitco Group, as applicable, in any Tax Proceeding relating to such Tax Return and to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Tax Proceeding. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.5(b) or (c), the Controlling Party’s rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of a Tax Proceeding, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item.

(b) Non-Controlling Party Participation Rights. With respect to a Tax Proceeding (other than with respect to a Joint Claim) relating to any Tax Return in which any Tax Item allocated to the Non-Controlling Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a subject of such Tax Proceeding (a “Contested Non-Controlling Party Item”), (i) the Non-Controlling Party shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Proceeding at its expense, insofar as the liabilities of the Non-Controlling Party or any of its Subsidiaries are concerned, (ii) the Controlling Party shall keep the Non-Controlling Party updated and informed, and shall consult with the Non-Controlling Party, with respect to any Contested Non-Controlling Party Item, (iii) the Controlling Party shall act in good faith with a view to the merits in connection with the Tax Proceeding, and (iv) the Controlling Party shall not settle or compromise any Contested Non-Controlling Party Item in excess of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000.00) without the Non-Controlling Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) Joint Claims. Distributing and Splitco will have the right to jointly control the defense, compromise, or settlement of any Joint Claim. No indemnifying Company shall settle or compromise or consent to entry of any judgment with respect to any such Joint Claim, without the prior written consent of the other Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified Company and (y) does not enjoin or restrict in any way the future actions or conduct of the indemnified Company (other than with respect to its performance hereunder).

7.6 Cooperation. The parties shall provide each other with all information relating to a Tax Proceeding or Joint Claim which is needed by the other party or parties to handle, participate in, defend, settle, or contest the Tax Proceeding or Joint Claim.

Splitco shall assist Distributing, and Distributing shall assist Splitco, in taking any commercially reasonable actions that are necessary or desirable to minimize the effects of any adjustment made by a Tax Authority. The indemnifying party shall reimburse the indemnified party for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in complying with this Section 7.6.
