Contests. If any claim shall be made against GE Capital or if any proceeding shall be commenced against GE Capital (including by written notice of such proceeding) for any Collateral Taxes which Aladdin Gaming is obligated to pay pursuant to this Section 4, or if GE Capital shall reasonably determine that any Collateral Taxes which Aladdin Gaming may have an obligation to pay under this Section 4 may be payable, GE Capital shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) notify Aladdin Gaming in writing (provided that failure to so notify shall not alter GE Capital's rights under Section 4 except to the extent (and then only to the extent that) such failure precludes or materially adversely affects the ability to conduct a contest of such Collateral Taxes) and shall not take any action with respect to such claim without written consent of Aladdin Gaming (and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 30 days after receipt of such notice by Aladdin Gaming; provided, however, that in the case of any such claim or proceeding, if GE Capital shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 30 day period, GE Capital shall in such notice to Aladdin Gaming, so inform Aladdin Gaming, and GE Capital shall not take any action with respect to such claim, proceeding or Collateral Taxes without the consent of Aladdin Gaming (such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or unreasonably delayed) for 10 days after the receipt of such notice by Aladdin Gaming unless GE Capital shall be required by law or regulation to take action prior to the end of such 10 day period. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Aladdin Gaming shall be entitled for a period of 30 days from receipt of such notice from GE Capital (or such shorter period as GE Capital has notified Aladdin Gaming is required by law or regulation for GE Capital to commence such contest), to request in writing that GE Capital contest the imposition of such Collateral Tax, at Aladdin Gaming's expense. In its sole discretion, GE Capital shall either (i) control the contest, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to Aladdin Gaming, or (ii) take all reasonable steps to enable Aladdin Gaming to control the contest. The party controlling the contest shall consult in good faith with the other party and its counsel with respect to the contest of such claim for Collateral Taxes (or claim for refund) but the decision regarding what actions...

Developer shall pay to Connecting Transmission Owner on a periodic basis, as invoiced by Connecting Transmission Owner, Connecting Transmission Owner’s documented reasonable costs of prosecuting such appeal, protest, abatement or other contest. At any time during the contest, Connecting Transmission Owner may agree to a settlement either with Developer’s consent or after obtaining written advice from nationally-recognized tax counsel, selected by Connecting Transmission Owner, but reasonably acceptable to Developer, that the proposed settlement represents a reasonable settlement given the hazards of litigation. Developer’s obligation shall be based on the amount of the settlement agreed to by Developer, or if a higher amount, so much of the settlement that is supported by the written advice from nationally- recognized tax counsel selected under the terms of the preceding sentence. The settlement amount shall be calculated on a fully grossed-up basis to cover any related cost consequences of the current tax liability. Any settlement without Developer’s consent or such written advice will relieve Developer from any obligation to indemnify Connecting Transmission Owner for the tax at issue in the contest.
Contests. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Contest” is any audit or court proceeding with respect to any Tax matter that affects any Acquired Company. Buyer shall, at its election, have the right to represent an Acquired Company’s interests in any Contest relating to a Tax matter arising in a period ending on or before the Measurement Date, to employ counsel of its choice at its expense and to control the conduct of such Contest, including settlement or other disposition thereof; provided, however, that Seller shall (i) control Contests relating to any consolidated or combined Tax Returns filed by it with respect to which any Acquired Company is a member and (ii) have the right to participate in any other contest relating to a Tax matter that may result in liability to Seller under Section 9.4 and consult with Buyer regarding any such Contest and no settlement or other disposition of any issue affecting any Acquired Company in such a Contest shall be made without prior approval of Seller (or Buyer with respect to a Contest which Seller controls), which approval may not be unreasonably withheld. Buyer shall give written notice to Seller of the existence of any Contest relating to a Tax matter that may result in liability to Seller under Section 9.4 (and Seller shall give written notice to Buyer in the case of a Contest in which Seller controls) within ten (10) Business Days from the receipt of any written notice of such Contest, but no failure to give such notice shall relieve Seller or Buyer, as applicable, of any Liability hereunder (except to the extent that such failure causes a detriment to the other Party). Each Party agrees to cooperate with each other and their representatives in a prompt and timely manner in connection with any such Contest. Such cooperation shall include making available to the other Party, during normal business hours, all books, records, Tax Returns, documents, files, other information (including working papers and schedules), officers or employees (without substantial interruption of employment) or other relevant information necessary or useful in connection with any Contest requiring any such books, records and files.
Contests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the Mortgagor shall have the right to contest by appropriate legal proceedings diligently prosecuted any Taxes imposed or assessed upon the Premises or which may be or become a lien thereon and any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other liens or claims for lien upon the Premises (each, a “Contested Lien”), and no Contested Lien shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage, if, but only if:
(a) The Mortgagor shall forthwith give notice of any Contested Lien to the Lender at the time the same shall be asserted;
(b) The Mortgagor shall either pay under protest or deposit with the Lender the full amount (the “Lien Amount”) of such Contested Lien, together with such amount as the Lender may reasonably estimate as interest or penalties which might arise during the period of contest; provided that in lieu of such payment the Mortgagor may furnish to the Lender a bond or title indemnity in such amount and form, and issued by a bond or title insuring company, as may be satisfactory to the Lender;
(c) The Mortgagor shall diligently prosecute the contest of any Contested Lien by appropriate legal proceedings having the effect of staying the foreclosure or forfeiture of the Premises, and shall permit the Lender to be represented in any such contest and shall pay all expenses incurred, in so doing, including fees and expenses of the Lender’s counsel (all of which shall constitute so much additional Indebtedness bearing interest at the Default Rate until paid, and payable upon demand);
(d) The Mortgagor shall pay each such Contested Lien and all Lien Amounts together with interest and penalties thereon (i) if and to the extent that any such Contested Lien shall be determined adverse to the Mortgagor, or (ii) forthwith upon demand by the Lender if, in the opinion of the Lender, and notwithstanding any such contest, the Premises shall be in jeopardy or in danger of being forfeited or foreclosed; provided that if the Mortgagor shall fail so to do, the Lender may, but shall not be required to, pay all such Contested Liens and Lien Amounts and interest and penalties thereon and such other sums as may be necessary in the judgment of the Lender to obtain the release and discharge of such liens; and any amount expended by the Lender in so doing shall be so much additional Indebtedness bearing interest at the Default Rate until paid, and payable upon demand; and provided further that the Lender may in such case u...

Contests. If a written claim is made by any taxing authority against a Tax Indemnitee for any Taxes with respect to which the Lessee may be required to indemnify against hereunder or if a Tax Indemnitee shall determine that any tax to which the Lessee may have an indemnity obligation hereunder may be payable (a "Tax Claim"), then such Tax Indemnitee shall give the Lessee written notice of such Tax Claim promptly (but in any event within twenty (20) days after its receipt of the written Tax Claim or its determination, as applicable), and shall furnish Lessee with copies of such Tax Claim and all other writings received from the taxing authority to the extent relating to such claim (but failure to so notify the Lessee shall not relieve the Lessee of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that it effectively precludes the ability of the Lessee to conduct a contest of the Tax Claim). The Tax Indemnitee shall not pay such Tax Claim until at least thirty (30) days after providing the Lessee with such written notice, unless (a) the Tax Indemnitee is required to do so by law or regulation or the failure to pay such Tax Claim could result in a material adverse financial, legal or other consequence to the Tax Indemnitee and (b) in the written notice described above, the Tax Indemnitee has notified the Lessee of such requirement or such material adverse consequence (such notice however shall not require the disclosure of the Tax Indemnitee's confidential information, as determined in the sole discretion of such Tax Indemnitiee, or the Tax Indemnitee's tax returns, books, or records). If the Lessee shall so request within 30 days after receipt of such notice (or such shorter period as is reasonably specified by the Tax Indemnitee if any contest of the Tax must be commenced prior to the expiration of 30 days), then such Tax Indemnitee shall in good faith at Lessee's sole expense contest such Tax or permit the Lessee to contest such Tax, as such Tax Indemnitee shall elect; provided, however, that to the extent (i) the contest involves only Taxes constituting property taxes, sales taxes, or use taxes, (ii) the contest does not involve any taxes that the Lessee is not required to indemnify the Tax Indemnitee or taxes and other issues relating to a Tax Indemnitee that are unrelated to the transactions contemplated by the Operative Agreements, (iii) the contest can be pursued in the name of the Lessee and independently from any other proceeding involving a Tax Claim of a Tax ...

Contests. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the respective Filing Party shall have the right to control, contest, and represent the interest of any FIS Group company or any LPS Group company in any Contest relating to any Tax Return described in Section 2.2 or 2.3 of this Agreement (other than a Tax Return described in Section 6.2(b) or (c) of this Agreement) and, subject to Section 6.4(b) of this Agreement, 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 Contest. The Filing Party’s rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of an Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item.
(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, after the date of execution of this Agreement, in the case of a Contest that relates to a Tax Return for a Taxable Period beginning before the Distribution Date (or any item relating thereto or reported thereon) which would give rise to an Indemnification Liability under this Agreement, of an Indemnifying Party that is not the Filing Party with respect to such Tax Return, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in and control the conduct of such Contest. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Contest for a Pre-Distribution Period, the Filing Party may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such Contest after giving ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party setting forth the terms and conditions of settlement. In the event of a Contest covered by the first sentence of this paragraph that involves issues (i) relating to a potential adjustment for which the Indemnifying Party has liability and (ii) that are required to be dealt with in a proceeding that also involves separate issues relating to a potential adjustment for which any Indemnitee would be liable, the Indemnitee shall have the right at its expense to control the Contest but only with respect to the latter issues.
(c) With respect to a Contest involving an issue for which both (i) any FIS Group company and (ii) any LPS Group company could be liable, both parties may participate in the Contest, and the Contest may be controlled by that party which would bear the burden of the greater portion of the sum of the adjustment and any correspon...
Contests. If any claim or claims is or are made against any Indemnitee for any Tax which is subject to indemnification as provided in Section 7.2(a), such Indemnitee shall as soon as practicable, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after receipt of formal written notice of the Tax or proposed Tax, notify the Lessee and if, in the reasonable opinion of the Lessee there exists a reasonable basis to contest such Tax which satisfies the requirements of ABA Formal Opinion 85-352 (and if the provisos of the definition of “Permitted Contest” continue to be satisfied), the Lessee at its expense may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law and provided that it has acknowledged in writing its liability for the Tax at issue if the contest is not successful, contest such Tax, and subsequently may appeal any adverse determination (other than to the United States Supreme Court), in the appropriate administrative and legal forums; provided, that in all other circumstances, upon notice from the Lessee to such Indemnitee that there exists a reasonable basis to contest any such Tax which satisfies the requirements of ABA Formal Opinion 85-352 (as supported by an opinion of tax counsel to the Lessee reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee), the Indemnitee, at the Lessee’s expense, shall contest any such Tax (so long as the provisos of the definition of “Permitted Contest” continue to be satisfied and, in the case of a Tax on gross or net income, the aggregate amount of the Tax exceeds U.S. $100,000). Lessee shall pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in contesting any such Tax (including, without limitation, all reasonable attorney’s and accountants’ fees), upon demand by the Indemnitee. Lessee shall have the right to participate in the conduct of any proceedings controlled by the Indemnitee to the extent that such participation by the Lessee does not interfere with the Indemnitee’s control of such contest and the Lessee shall in all events be kept informed, to the extent practicable, of material developments relative to such proceedings. The Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the conduct of any proceedings controlled by the Lessee to the extent that such participation by the Indemnitee does not interfere with the Lessee’s control of such contest, and the Indemnitee shall in all events be kept informed, to the extent practicable, of material developments relative to such proceedings. The Indemnitees agree that a conteste...
