Intended Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, all parties to this Agreement covenant and agree to treat each Loan under this Agreement as debt (and all Interest as interest) for all federal, state, local and franchise tax purposes and agree not to take any position on any tax return inconsistent with the foregoing.
Intended Tax Treatment. Neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has taken or agreed to take any action, and to the Knowledge of Parent there exists no fact or circumstance, that is reasonably likely to prevent or impede the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
Intended Tax Treatment. The parties intend the Merger to be treated as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the rules and regulations thereunder, and intend for this Agreement to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of the Code.
Intended Tax Treatment. It is intended that the Merger shall qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement is intended to be, and is adopted as, a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code.
Intended Tax Treatment. The Parties intend that the First Merger and Second Merger, taken together, will be treated for U.S. federal and applicable state income tax purposes as (a) a contribution by the Pubco Shareholders to Parent of all of the shares of Pubco Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any Excluded Shares or Dissenting Shares), and (b) a contribution by the CBA Member to Parent of all of the membership interest of CBA issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case in exchange for shares of Parent Class A Common Stock in a transaction described in Section 351 of the Code (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Each of the Parties will (and will cause its Affiliates to) (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the First Merger and the Second Merger to constitute a transaction qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment and (ii) not take any action or fail to take any action that could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the First Merger or the Second Merger from qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each of the Parties and their respective Affiliates shall, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, (A) file all Tax Returns consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (including attaching any required statements described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.351-3 on or with such Party’s U.S. federal income Tax Returns for the taxable year that includes the First Merger and the Second Merger), and (B) take no Tax position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise), unless required by a “determination” as defined in Section 1313 of the Code. In addition, each Party shall promptly notify all other Parties if it knows or has reason to believe that the First Merger and the Second Merger may not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment (and the Parties shall cooperate to promptly determine whether the terms of this Agreement could be reasonably amended in order to facilitate the qualification of the First Merger and the Second Merger for the Intended Tax Treatment).
Intended Tax Treatment. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary has taken or agreed to take any action or knows of the existence of any fact that is reasonably likely to prevent or impede the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
Intended Tax Treatment. The Company has not taken or agreed to take any action, and to the Knowledge of the Company there exists no fact or circumstance, that is reasonably likely to prevent or impede the Merger from qualifying as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
Intended Tax Treatment. The parties intend the Parent Merger to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and intend for this Agreement to constitute a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:
Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal, and applicable state and local income tax purposes each of the contributions of Rollover Shares hereunder, taken collectively, shall be treated as an integrated transaction qualifying under Section 351(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Intended Tax Treatment. (i) For U.S. federal income tax purposes (and for purposes of any applicable state or local income tax that follows the U.S. federal income tax treatment), each of the Parties intends that the Business Combination will be treated in part as (A) a purchase of interests in the Company by Acquiror (to the extent of the proceeds received by the Company from Acquiror and distributed to other holders of Company Units under Section 2.01(d)) and in part as (B) a contribution pursuant to Section 721(a) of the Code by Axxxxxxx (to the extent of proceeds retained by the Company) (the “Intended Income Tax Treatment”). The Parties will prepare and file all Tax Returns consistent with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.03(a)(i) and will not take any inconsistent position on any Tax Return or during the course of any Action, audit, or other similar proceeding with respect to Taxes, except as otherwise required by a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar or corresponding provision of state or local Law). Each of the Parties agrees to promptly notify all other Parties of any challenge to the Intended Income Tax Treatment by any Governmental Authority. The consideration treated as paid for partnership interests in (A) above and any other item treated as purchase price for applicable Tax purposes will, to the extent applicable, be allocated among the assets of the Company in the manner required by Sections 743, 754 and 751 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and in accordance with a schedule to be provided by the Company prior to the Closing Date.
