Tax Opinion Sample Clauses
A Tax Opinion clause requires one party, typically a legal or tax advisor, to provide a formal written opinion regarding the tax consequences of a transaction or agreement. This clause outlines the circumstances under which such an opinion must be delivered, the qualifications of the issuing professional, and the specific tax matters to be addressed. By including this clause, parties ensure they have authoritative guidance on potential tax liabilities or benefits, thereby reducing uncertainty and helping to prevent future disputes related to tax treatment.

Tax Opinion. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(c), all determinations required to be made under this Section 2.2, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm or law firm selected by the Company (the "Tax Firm"); provided, however, that the Tax Firm shall not determine that no Excise Tax is payable by Employee unless it delivers to Employee a written opinion (the "Tax Opinion") that failure to pay the Excise Tax and to report the Excise Tax and the payments potentially subject thereto on or with Employee's applicable federal income tax return will not result in the imposition of an accuracy-related or other penalty on Employee. All fees and expenses of the Tax Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Within 15 business days of the receipt of notice from Employee that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Company, the Tax Firm shall make all determinations required under this Section, shall provide to the Company and Employee a written report setting forth such determinations, together with detailed supporting calculations, and, if the Tax Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable, shall deliver the Tax Opinion to Employee. Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section, shall be paid by the Company to Employee within fifteen days of the receipt of the Tax Firm's determination. Subject to the remainder of this Section 2.2, any determination by the Tax Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Employee; provided, however, that Employee shall only be bound to the extent that the determinations of the Tax Firm hereunder, including the determinations made in the Tax Opinion, are reasonable and reasonably supported by applicable law. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Tax Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been made by the Company should have been made ("Underpayment"), consistent with the calculations required to be made hereunder. In the event that it is ultimately determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2(c) that Employee is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Tax Firm shall reasonably determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpaymen...
