Tax Covenants Sample Clauses

A Tax Covenants clause sets out the obligations and assurances between parties regarding tax matters related to a transaction or ongoing business relationship. Typically, it requires one party to guarantee that all relevant taxes have been paid or will be paid, and may include promises to indemnify the other party for any tax liabilities arising from periods before the transaction. This clause is essential for allocating the risk of unexpected tax liabilities, ensuring that each party is protected from unforeseen tax issues that could arise after the agreement is executed.

Tax Covenants. The Borrower further represents, warrants and covenants as follows:
Tax Covenants. In order to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes and as an inducement to purchasers of the Bonds, the Lessee and the Lessor represent, covenant and agree that neither the Lessor nor the Lessee will take any action or fail to take any action with respect to the Bonds, this Lease or the Leased Premises that will result in the loss of the exclusion from gross income for federal tax purposes of interest on the Bonds under Section 103 of the Code, nor will they act in any other manner which will adversely affect such exclusion; and it will not make any investment or do any other act or thing during the period that the Bonds are outstanding which will cause any of the Bonds to be “arbitrage bonds” within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. The covenants in this Section are based solely on current law in effect and in existence on the date of issuance of the Bonds. It shall not be an event of default under this Lease if interest on any Bonds is not excludable from gross income pursuant to any provision of the Code which is not in existence and in effect on the issue date of the Bonds. All officers, members, employees and agents of the Lessor and the Lessee are authorized to provide certifications of facts and estimates that are material to the reasonable expectations of the Lessor and the Lessee as of the date the Bonds are issued and to enter into covenants on behalf of the Lessor and the Lessee evidencing the Lessor’s and the Lessee’s commitments made herein. In particular, all or any members or officers of the Lessor and the Lessee are authorized to certify and enter into covenants regarding the facts and circumstances and reasonable expectations of the Lessor and the Lessee on the date the Bonds are issued and the commitments made by the Lessor and the Lessee herein regarding the amount and use of the proceeds of the Bonds. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the foregoing covenants and authorizations (the “Tax Sections”) which are designed to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income under federal income tax law (the “Tax Exemption”) need not be complied with if the Lessee receives an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel that any Tax Section is unnecessary to preserve the Tax Exemption.
