Tax Consequences of Payments. For all Tax purposes and to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law, the parties hereto shall treat any payment made pursuant to this Agreement as a capital contribution or a distribution, as the case may be, immediately prior to the External Distribution. Under no circumstances shall any payment (or portion thereof) made pursuant to this Agreement be grossed up to take into account any additional Taxes that may be owed by the recipient (or any of the members of its Group) as a result of such payment. In the event that a Tax Authority asserts that External Distributing’s or External SpinCo’s treatment of a payment pursuant to this Agreement should be other than as required pursuant to this Section 4.7, External Distributing or External SpinCo, as appropriate, shall use its reasonable best efforts to contest such assertion if the parties reasonably believe that the treatment described in this Section 4.7 is permitted by applicable Tax Law.
