All references to Real Property Taxes during a particular year shall be deemed to refer to taxes accrued during such year, including supplemental tax bills, regardless of when they are actually assessed and without regard to when such taxes are payable. The obligation of Tenant to pay for supplemental taxes effective during the Term shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Lease. Nothing contained in this Lease shall require Tenant to pay any franchise, corporate, estate or inheritance tax of Landlord, or any income, profits or revenue tax or charge upon the net income of Landlord or any documentary transfer tax.
Personal Property Tax The Tenant shall pay promptly when due all taxes which may be imposed upon personal property (including, without limitation, fixtures and equipment) in the Premises to whomever assessed. Tenant shall have the right to contest the validity or amount of any such taxes by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith.
Property Taxes All Property Taxes which have become due and payable upon any of the Purchased Assets on or before the Closing Date shall be paid by Seller on or before the Closing, together with any penalty or interest thereon, to the relevant Governmental Authority. All Property Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Purchased Assets that are due and payable with respect to a Straddle Period (taking into account whether such Property Taxes are payable in advance or in arrears) shall be apportioned between (i) the period beginning before and ending on the Closing Date (the “Pre-Transfer Period”) and (ii) the period beginning on the day immediately after the Closing Date and ending on the last day of the relevant taxable period (the “Post-Transfer Period”). In performing such apportionment, all Property Taxes shall be prorated on the assumption that an equal amount of Property Tax applies to each day of the relevant taxable period regardless of how installment payments are billed or made. If the actual amount of any such item is not known as of the Closing Date, such proration will be based on the previous year’s assessment of such item and the parties hereto will adjust such proration and pay any underpayment or reimburse for any overpayment within thirty (30) days after the actual amount becomes known. Seller shall be liable for all such Property Taxes apportioned to the Pre-Transfer Period and Buyer shall be liable for all such Property Taxes apportioned to the Post-Transfer Period. No later than fifteen (15) days prior to the due date thereof, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of any Pre-Transfer Period and other Property Taxes for which Seller is liable under this Section 5.4 and which remain unpaid as of the Closing Date. Within five (5) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all Property Taxes paid by Seller that are apportioned to the Post-Transfer Period. Buyer shall pay all Property Taxes which become due and payable after the Closing Date with respect to a Straddle Period.
Real Property Taxes Taxes, assessments and charges now or hereafter levied or assessed upon, or with respect to, the Project, or any personal property of Landlord used in the operation thereof or located therein, or Landlord's interest in the Project or such personal property, by any federal, state or local entity, including: (i) all real property taxes and general and special assessments; (ii) charges, fees or assessments for transit, housing, day care, open space, art, police, fire or other governmental services or benefits to the Project, including assessments, taxes, fees, levies and charges imposed by governmental agencies for such purposes as street, sidewalk, road, utility construction and maintenance, refuse removal and for other governmental services; (iii) service payments in lieu of taxes; (iv) any tax, fee or excise on the use or occupancy of any part of the Project, or on rent for space in the Project; (v) any other tax, fee or excise, however described, that may be levied or assessed as a substitute for, or as an addition to, in whole or in part, any other Real Property Taxes; and (vi) reasonable consultants' and attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in connection with proceedings to contest, determine or reduce Real Property Taxes. Real Property Taxes do not include: (A) franchise, transfer, inheritance or capital stock taxes, or income taxes measured by the net income of Landlord from all sources, unless any such taxes are levied or assessed against Landlord as a substitute for, in whole or in part, any Real Property Tax; (B) Impositions and all similar amounts payable by tenants of the Project under their leases; and (C) penalties, fines, interest or charges due for late payment of Real Property Taxes by Landlord. If any Real Property Taxes are payable, or may at the option of the taxpayer be paid, in installments, such Real Property Taxes shall, together with any interest that would otherwise be payable with such installment, be deemed to have been paid in installments, amortized over the maximum time period allowed by applicable law. If the tax statement from a taxing authority does not allocate Real Property Taxes to the Building, Landlord shall make the determination of the proper allocation of such Real Property Taxes based, to the extent possible, upon records of the taxing authority and, if not so available, then on an equitable basis. Real Property Taxes also do not include any increases in the taxes, assessments, charges, excises and levies assessed against the Project due solely to the construction or installation of tenant improvements or other alterations by tenants of the Project other than Tenant and any other tenants or occupants of the Building; provided, however, that if any Real Property Taxes are imposed or increased due to the construction or installation of tenant improvements or other alterations in the Building, such Real Property Taxes shall be equitably prorated in Landlord's reasonable judgment between Tenant and any other tenants of the Building.
REAL ESTATE TAXES, SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS AND PRORATIONS (a) Because the Entire Property (of which the Property is a part) is subject to a triple net lease (as further set forth in paragraph 11(a)(i), the parties acknowledge that there shall be no need for a real estate tax proration. However, Seller represents that to the best of its knowledge, all real estate taxes and installments of special assessments due and payable in all years prior to the year of Closing have been paid in full. Unpaid real estate taxes and unpaid levied and pending special assessments existing on the date of Closing shall be the responsibility of Buyer and Seller in proportion to their respective Tenant in Common interests, pro-rated, however, to the date of closing for the period prior to closing, which shall be the responsibility of Seller if Tenant shall not pay the same. Seller and Buyer shall likewise pay all taxes due and payable in the year after Closing and any unpaid installments of special assessments payable therewith and thereafter, if such unpaid levied and pending special assessments and real estate taxes are not paid by any tenant of the Entire Property.

Closing Costs and Prorations All recording fees, escrow fees, and other closing costs (except documentary transfer taxes as provided in Section 3.5(c) above) shall be allocated according to custom and practice based on the location of the Property. All income and expenses of the Property shall be prorated according to custom and practice based on the location of the Property.

Real Estate and Personal Property Taxes A. Except as specifically set forth in Section 4.07.B below, all real estate and personal property taxes, levies, assessments (including special assessments (regardless of when due or whether they are paid as a lump sum or in installments over time) imposed because of facilities that are constructed by or on behalf of the assessing jurisdiction (for example, roads, sidewalks, sewers, culverts, etc.) which directly benefit the Hotel (regardless of whether or not they also benefit other buildings)), “Impact Fees” (regardless of when due or whether they are paid as a lump sum or in installments over time) which are required of Owner as a condition to the issuance of zoning variances or building permits, and similar charges on or relating to the Hotel (collectively, “Impositions”) during the Term shall be paid by Manager from Gross Revenues, before any fine, penalty, or interest is added thereto or lien placed upon the Hotel or upon this Agreement, unless payment thereof is in good faith being contested and enforcement thereof is stayed. Any such payments shall be Deductions in determining Operating Profit. Owner shall, within five (5) days after receipt, furnish Manager with copies of official tax bills and assessments which it may receive with respect to the Hotel. Either Landlord or Owner may, and at Owner’s request Manager shall, initiate proceedings to contest any negotiations or proceedings with respect to any Imposition, and all reasonable costs of any such contest shall be paid from Gross Revenues and shall be a Deduction in determining Operating Profit. Manager shall, as part of its contest or negotiation of any Imposition, be entitled, on Owner’s behalf, to waive any applicable statute of limitations in order to avoid paying the Imposition during the pendency of any proceedings or negotiations with applicable authorities. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, at Owner’s option (i) Manager shall establish an escrow account in the name of Owner in a bank or banks designated by Manager with the concurrence of Owner and shall deposit monthly into such account from Gross Revenues an amount that Manager reasonably estimates shall be sufficient to pay the Impositions, in which case Manager shall pay the Impositions from funds in the escrow account as and when the Impositions become due (and Owner shall promptly deposit into the escrow account any deficiency if the estimated monthly payments are not sufficient to pay all of the Impositions) or (ii) the amounts that would otherwise be deposited into such escrow account shall be included in the Operating Profit, not deducted from Gross Revenues and shall be distributed in cash to Owner along with the remainder of the Owner’s Priority. If Owner elects to retain such amounts pursuant to clause (ii) above, Manager shall accrue such amounts as a reserve on the accounting records of the Hotel, and Owner shall fund the same as and when the Impositions become due, but such accrued and unfunded amounts shall be deducted from Gross Revenues for purposes of calculating the Incentive Management Fee. In addition, if any Mortgagee requires the establishment of an escrow account with respect to the Impositions, Manager shall comply with such requirements.
