Straddle Period Tax Allocation The Company will, unless prohibited by applicable law, close the taxable period of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date. If applicable law does not permit the Company to close its taxable year on the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period which includes the Closing Date (but does not begin or end on that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes, if any, attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated (i) to the Selling Members for the period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date (except that the Members shall not be responsible for Taxes to the extent of any reserve or accrual for Taxes on the Closing Balance Sheet that are included in the Closing Working Capital described in Section 2.4(b)(i)), and (ii) to Purchaser for the period subsequent to the Closing Date. Any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of the Company as of the close of the Closing Date, provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period. Property or ad valorem Taxes however shall be apportioned by assuming that an equal portion of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period is allocable to each day in such Straddle Period.
Straddle Period Taxes Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns other than any Tax Return based upon or related to income or receipts with respect to the Purchased Assets for taxable periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”). Such Tax Returns shall be prepared or caused to be prepared by Buyer. Buyer shall submit drafts of such Tax Returns to the Sellers for approval by the Sellers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) no later than twenty (20) days prior to the date that such Tax Returns are required to be filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority, including extensions. In the event that the Sellers and Buyer cannot reach agreement with respect to any items shown on such Tax Returns, a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Sellers and Buyer shall prepare the Tax Returns. The costs related to having the accounting firm prepare the Tax Returns shall be borne equally by the Sellers and Buyer. The Sellers shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the portion of the Taxes shown on a Tax Return approved by the Sellers which relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date promptly upon receiving notice from Buyer that the Sellers are liable under this Section 7.2(b) for such Taxes but in no event later than five (5) Business Days before the Tax Return reflecting such liability is required to be filed. For purposes of this Section 7.2(b), in the case of sales, use and other similar Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that relates to the portion of such taxable period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on and included the Closing Date.
Straddle Periods For all purposes under this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, the portion of Taxes that are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date will be: (i) in the case of Property Taxes and other Taxes imposed on a periodic basis without regard to income, gross receipts, payroll or sales, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes, determined as though the relevant taxable year terminated at the end of the Closing Date. If any Taxes for a Straddle Period relating to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities that are allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period under this Section 5.12 are paid by the Purchaser, on the one hand, or if any Taxes for a Straddle Period relating to the Purchased 31 Assets or the Assumed Liabilities that are allocated to the Post-Closing Tax Period under this Section 5.12 are paid by the Seller, on the other hand, the proportionate amount of such Taxes allocable to the other party shall be paid promptly by such other party to the party that paid such Taxes to the applicable Governmental Authority promptly after the payment of such Taxes. To the extent any amounts are paid by the Seller to the Purchaser under this Section 5.12, such amounts shall not be duplicatively indemnified against as an Excluded Liability.
Straddle Period In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:
Straddle Period Allocation For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Tax imposed with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that is allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Income Taxes, Taxes based on receipts, sales or payments and other Taxes that are transaction based, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period prior to and ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of any Income Taxes and Taxes based on receipts, sales or payments and other Taxes that are transaction based, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date, provided that all permitted allowances, credits, exemptions and deductions that are normally computed on the basis of an entire year period (such as depreciation and amortization deductions) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be allocated between the pre-Closing portion of the Straddle Period and the post-Closing portion of the Straddle Period in proportion to the number of days in each such period.
Allocation of Straddle Period Taxes In the case of any Straddle Period:
Company Tax Returns The Company shall file all tax returns, if any, required to be filed by the Company.
INCOME TAX RETURNS Borrower has no knowledge of any pending assessments or adjustments of its income tax payable with respect to any year.
Other Tax Returns Subject to Section 7.01, the Managers shall cause to be prepared and filed all necessary tax returns for the Company.
