Transaction Taxes Fund is responsible for all taxes, levies, duties, and assessments levied on Services purchased under this Agreement (collectively, “Transaction Taxes”). Computershare is responsible for collecting and remitting Transaction Taxes in all jurisdictions in which Computershare is registered to collect such Transaction Taxes. Computershare shall invoice Fund for such Transaction Taxes that Computershare is obligated to collect upon the furnishing of Services. Fund shall pay such Transaction Taxes according to the terms in Section 7.3. Computershare shall timely remit to the appropriate governmental authorities all such Transaction Taxes that Computershare collects from Fund.

Certain Taxes All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by Sellers when due, and Sellers will, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable law, Buyer will, and will cause its affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.
Certain Tax Matters At or after the Closing, all ad valorem, property or other Taxes imposed on a periodic basis pertaining to the Purchased Assets shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days of the relevant Tax year or period which have elapsed through the Closing Date, determined without reference to any change of ownership occasioned by the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Seller shall be responsible for that portion of such amounts relating to the period on or prior to the Closing Date and the Buyer shall be responsible for that portion of such amounts relating to the period after the Closing Date. The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by either party, in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns, and Action with respect to Taxes, relating to the Purchased Assets or the operation of the Business. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon a party’s reasonable request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, or Action, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and timely notification of receipt of any notice of an Action or notice of deficiency relating to any Tax or Tax Return with respect to which the non-recipient may have liability hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any claim against the Seller pursuant to this paragraph shall be made by the Buyer no later than six (6) months after Closing; the Seller shall have no liability for Taxes after expiration of six (6) months from Closing.
Allocation of Tax Liabilities The provisions of this Section 2 are intended to determine each Company's liability for Taxes with respect to Pre-Distribution Periods. Once the liability has been determined under this Section 2, Section 5 determines the time when payment of the liability is to be made, and whether the payment is to be made to the Tax Authority directly or to another Company.
Cooperation on Tax Matters (i) Buyer, the Company and Sellers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party's request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Company and Sellers agree (A) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or Sellers, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, the Company or Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.
Income Tax Allocations (a) Except as provided in this Section 4.3, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as such items are allocated for Capital Account purposes under Section 4.1 and Section 4.2.
Tax Allocations Each item of income, gain, loss or deduction recognized by the Company shall be allocated among the Members for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes in the same manner that each such item is allocated to the Member’s Capital Accounts pursuant to Section 3.2(d) or as otherwise provided herein, provided that the Board may adjust such allocations as long as such adjusted allocations have substantial economic effect or are in accordance with the interests of the Members in the Company, in each case within the meaning of the Code and the Treasury Regulations. Tax credits and tax credit recapture shall be allocated in accordance with the Members’ interests in the Company as provided in Treasury Regulations section 1.704-1(b)(4)(ii). Items of Company taxable income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any property (other than cash) contributed to the capital of the Company or revalued shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members, as determined by the Board in accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code, so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for U.S. federal income tax purposes and its fair market value at the time of contribution or revaluation, as the case may be. All of the Members agree that the Board is authorized to select the method or convention, or to treat an item as an extraordinary item, in relation to any variation of any Member’s interest in the Company described in section 1.706-4 of the Treasury Regulations in determining the Members’ distributive shares of Company items. All matters concerning allocations for U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. income tax purposes, including accounting procedures, not expressly provided for by the terms of this Agreement shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion. Each Class B Ordinary Share is intended to be treated as a profits interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and all of the Members agree to report consistently with, and to take any action requested by the Board to ensure, such treatment.
Foreign Taxes Any amounts payable hereunder, other than payments of interest, principal or premium, if any, in respect of any of the Securities, to an Underwriter shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any and all taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges or fees of whatsoever nature now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, deducted or withheld or assessed by or on behalf of Australia or any political subdivision thereof or by any jurisdiction, other than the United States or any taxing authority or political subdivision thereof, in which the Bank has a branch, an office or any agency from which payment is made (a “Taxing Authority”), excluding (i) any such tax which would not have been imposed if such Underwriter had no present or former connection with any such jurisdiction other than the performance of its obligations hereunder, (ii) any income or franchise tax imposed on the net income of such Underwriter by any jurisdiction of which such Underwriter is a resident, citizen or domiciliary, or in which such Underwriter is engaged in business and (iii) any tax imposed that would not have been imposed but for the failure by such Underwriter to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with any Taxing Authority if compliance is required by such Taxing Authority as a pre-condition to exemption from, or reduction in rate of, such tax (all such non-excluded taxes, the “Foreign Taxes”). If, by operation of law or otherwise, that portion of amounts payable hereunder represented by Foreign Taxes withheld or deducted cannot be paid or remitted, then amounts payable under this Agreement shall be increased to such amounts as are necessary to yield and remit to such Underwriter amounts which, after deduction of all Foreign Taxes (including all Foreign Taxes payable on such increased payments) equal the amounts that would have been payable if no Foreign Taxes had been so withheld or deducted (the “Additional Amount”); provided, however, that no Additional Amount with respect to any payment or compensation to such Underwriter hereunder shall be required to be paid in the event that such payment or compensation is subject to such Foreign Tax by reason of such Underwriter being connected with the jurisdiction of the Taxing Authority other than by reason of merely receiving payment hereunder.
Tax Allocation Within thirty (30) days following the Closing, Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and shall deliver to Seller a draft allocation of the Base Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.3, prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, as appropriate) (each such allocation, a “Purchase Price Allocation”). Within ten (10) days after the receipt of such draft Purchase Price Allocation, Seller will propose to Buyer in writing any objections or proposed changes to such draft Purchase Price Allocation (and in the event that no such changes are proposed in writing to Buyer within such time period, Seller will be deemed to have agreed to, and accepted, the Purchase Price Allocation). In the event of objections or proposed changes, Buyer and Seller will attempt in good faith to resolve any differences between them with respect to the Purchase Price Allocation, in accordance with requirements of Section 1060 of the Code, within ten (10) days after Buyer’s receipt of a timely written notice of objection or proposed changes from Seller. If Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve such differences within such time period, then any remaining disputed matters will be submitted to an independent accounting firm, the identity of which shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller each acting reasonably, for resolution. Promptly, but by no later than ten (10) days after submission to it of the dispute(s), the independent accounting firm will determine those matters in dispute and will render a written report as to the disputed matters and the resulting allocation, which report shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. The fees and expenses of the independent accounting firm in respect of such report shall be paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller. Buyer and Seller shall report, act, and file in all respects and for all Tax purposes (including the filing of Internal Revenue Service Form 8594) in a manner consistent with such allocations set forth on the Purchase Price Allocation so finalized, and shall take no position for Tax purposes inconsistent therewith unless required to do so by applicable law. Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate in the preparation, execution and filing and delivery of all documents, forms and other information as the other Party may reasonably request to assist in the preparation of any filings relating to the allocation, pursuant to this Section 3.5.
