Common use of Section 85 Election Clause in Contracts

Section 85 Election. An Eligible Holder who is entitled to receive Pan American Shares under Section 3.1(d) shall be entitled to make a joint income tax election, pursuant to subsection 85(1) of the Tax Act (and any analogous provision of provincial income tax law) (a “Section 85 Election”) with respect to the disposition of MAG Shares under this Plan of Arrangement by providing two signed copies of the necessary joint election forms to an appointed representative, as directed by Pan American, within 60 days after the Effective Date, duly completed with the details of the MAG Shares transferred and the applicable agreed amount for the purposes of such joint elections. Pan American shall, within 30 days after receiving the completed joint election forms from an Eligible Holder, and subject to such joint election forms being correct and complete and in compliance with requirements imposed under the Tax Act (or any analogous provision of provincial income tax law), sign and return such forms to such Eligible Holder. Neither MAG, Pan American nor any successor corporation shall be responsible for the proper completion and filing of any joint election form (except for the obligation to sign and return the duly completed joint election forms which are received within 60 days of the Effective Date) or for any taxes, interest or penalties arising as a result of the failure of an Eligible Holder to properly or timely complete and file such joint election forms in the form and manner prescribed by the Tax Act (or any applicable provincial legislation). In its sole discretion, Pan American or any successor corporation may choose to sign and return a joint election form received by it more than 60 days following the Effective Date, but shall have no obligation to do so.
