Tax Preparation The Company and its Affiliates will provide tax preparation services via a designated tax service provider to assist Executive with any required income tax preparation services in both the Home Country and Canada with respect to any tax years falling within the Employment Period.
Tax Return Preparation (i) To the extent not filed prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) all Tax Returns that are required to be filed by each of the Companies and their Subsidiaries for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods (each, a “Pre-Closing Period Tax Return”). All such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the prior practice of the Companies and their Subsidiaries, except as reasonably approved by Buyer. Buyer shall allow Seller access to any and all data and information necessary for the preparation of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns and shall cooperate fully with the Seller in the preparation of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns; provided, that no employee of Buyer, any Company or any Company Subsidiary shall be required to sign any such Tax Return without, at the request of such employee, being fully indemnified by Seller for any liability incurred as a consequence of signing such Tax Return. With respect to each Pre-Closing Period Tax Return filed after the Closing Date, no later than thirty days prior to the due date (taking into account any valid extensions thereof) (“Due Date”) for the filing of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, the Seller shall submit, or cause to be submitted, to the Buyer for its review drafts of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return (together with all related work papers). Within ten days following Buyer’s receipt of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, Buyer shall have the right to object to such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return (by written notice to the Seller). If Buyer does not object by written notice to the Seller within such time period, such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return shall be deemed to have been accepted and agreed upon, and final and conclusive, for purposes of this Section 4.15(a)(i). If Buyer objects to such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, it shall notify the Seller of such disputed item (or items) (in such written notice) and the basis for its objection and the Buyer and Seller shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable. If the Buyer and Seller have not reached agreement regarding such dispute, the dispute shall be presented to the Independent Accounting Firm, whose determination shall be binding upon both Buyer and Seller, provided, however, that (i) such determination shall be limited to whether the disputed item is consistent with past practices, if applicable, and (ii) the Buyer and Seller shall require the Independent Accounting Firm to make a determination within ten (10) days but in no event later than five (5) days prior to the Due Date of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return. With respect to each such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, no later than two (2) days prior to the Due Date of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, (x) the Seller shall submit to the Buyer final drafts of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return and (y) the Seller shall pay to the Buyer an amount equal to the liability for Taxes that are shown to be due and payable on the face of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return. The Buyer shall cause the applicable Company or Subsidiary (as the case may be) to file each Pre-Closing Period Tax Return and pay to the applicable Tax authority all amounts shown to be due and payable on the face of such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return.
Joint Preparation The preparation of this Agreement has been a joint effort of the parties and the resulting documents shall not, solely as a matter of judicial construction, be construed more severely against one of the parties than the other.
Costs of negotiation, preparation etc The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent on its demand the amount of all expenses incurred by the Agent or the Security Trustee in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution or registration of any Finance Document or any related document or with any transaction contemplated by a Finance Document or a related document.
Acquisition Fee Subject to Section 12(b), the Company shall pay an Acquisition Fee to the Advisor or its assigns as compensation for services rendered in connection with the investigation, selection and acquisition (by purchase, investment or exchange) of each Investment. If the Advisor is terminated without Cause pursuant to Section 18(b)(1), the Advisor or its assigns shall be entitled to an Acquisition Fee for any Investments acquired after the Termination Date for which a contract to acquire the applicable Investment had been entered into at or prior to the Termination Date. The total Acquisition Fee payable to the Advisor or its assigns shall be equal to 1.5% of (1) the Contract Purchase Price of each Investment and (2) the amount advanced for a Loan or other investment. The purchase price allocable for an Investment held through a Joint Venture shall equal the product of (i) the Contract Purchase Price of the Investment, multiplied by (ii) the direct or indirect ownership percentage in the Joint Venture held directly or indirectly by the Company or the Operating Partnership. For purposes of this Section 11(a), “ownership percentage” shall be the percentage of capital stock, membership interests, partnership interests or other equity interests owned directly or indirectly by the Company or the Operating Partnership, without regard to classification of such equity interests. The Company shall pay any Acquisition Fee due hereunder promptly upon the closing of the Investment. In addition, if during the period ending two years after the close of the initial Primary Offering, the Company sells an Investment and then reinvests the net proceeds in a new Investment(s), the Company shall pay to the Advisor or its assigns 1.0% of the Contract Purchase Price of the new Investment(s).
Transaction Fee In connection with the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Transfer Agent shall charge, and the Participant agrees to pay to the Transfer Agent, the Transaction Fee prescribed in the Prospectus and such additional amounts as may be prescribed pursuant to the Prospectus. Such Transaction Fee and additional amounts, if any, shall be included in the calculation of the Cash Component or Cash Redemption Amount payable or to be received, as the case may be, by the Participant in connection with the creation or redemption order.
Development Fee The fee for the packaging of a Company Property, including negotiating and approving plans and assisting in obtaining zoning and necessary variances and financing for a specific Company Property to be developed or under development, either initially or at a later date.
Distribution Fee In addition to the Service Fee, the Trust, on behalf of the Series, will pay to the Distributor a fee (the "Distribution Fee") at an annual rate of 0.75% (unless reduced as contemplated by and permitted pursuant to the next sentence hereof) of the Series' average daily net assets attributable to the Class B shares in consideration of the services rendered in connection with the sale of such shares by the Distributor. The Trust will not terminate the Distribution Fee in respect of Series assets attributable to Class B shares, or pay such fee at an annual rate of less than 0.75% of the Series' average daily net assets attributable to the Class B shares, unless it has ceased, and not resumed, paying the Service Fee (or any other fee that constitutes a "service fee" as defined in the NASD Rule) to CDC IXIS Distributors (or to any affiliate of CDC IXIS Distributors, or to any other person in circumstances where substantially all of the services and functions relating to the distribution of Class B shares of the Series have been delegated to, or are being performed by, CDC IXIS Distributors or an affiliate of CDC IXIS Distributors). Subject to such restriction and subject to the provisions of Section 7 hereof, the Distribution Fee shall be as approved from time to time by (a) the Trustees of the Trust and (b) the Independent Trustees of the Trust. The Distribution Fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly or at such other intervals as the Trustees shall determine. The obligation of the Series to pay the Distribution Fee shall terminate upon the termination of this Plan or the relevant distribution agreement between the Distributor and the Trust relating to the Series, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, but until any such termination shall not be subject to any dispute, offset, counterclaim or defense whatsoever (it being understood that nothing in this sentence shall be deemed a waiver by the Trust or the Series of its right separately to pursue any claims it may have against the Distributor and enforce such claims against any assets of the Distributor (other than its right to be paid the Distribution Fee and to be paid contingent deferred sales charges)). The right of CDC IXIS Distributors to receive the Distribution Fee (but not the relevant distribution agreement or CDC IXIS Distributor's obligations thereunder) may be transferred by CDC IXIS Distributors in order to raise funds which may be useful or necessary to perform its duties as principal underwriter, and any such transfer shall be effective upon written notice from CDC IXIS Distributors to the Trust. In connection with the foregoing, the Series is authorized to pay all or part of the Distribution Fee directly to such transferee as directed by CDC IXIS Distributors. The Distributor may pay all or any portion of the Distribution Fee to securities dealers or other organizations (including, but not limited to, any affiliate of the Distributor) as commissions, asset-based sales charges or other compensation with respect to the sale of Class B shares of the Series, and may retain all or any portion of the Distribution Fee as compensation for the Distributor's services as principal underwriter of the Class B shares of the Series. All payments under this Section 2 are intended to qualify as "asset-based sales charges" as defined in the NASD Rule.
Termination Fee; Expenses Except as provided in this ------------------------- Section 7.3, all fees and expenses incurred by the parties hereto shall be borne solely and entirely by the party which has incurred such fees and expenses. In the event that (A) a Takeover Proposal shall have been made known to the Company or shall have been made directly to its stockholders generally or any person shall have publicly announced an intention (whether or not conditional) to make a Takeover Proposal and thereafter this Agreement is terminated by the Company either (I) pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(iii) hereof or, (II) if the Offer has remained open for at least 20 business days and the Minimum Condition has not been satisfied (and none of the events described in paragraphs (a), (b), (d) and (e) of Annex A shall have occurred so as to result in a condition to the Offer not being satisfied), pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii) hereof, and in the case of either clause (I) or (II) such Takeover Proposal is consummated within one (1) year of such termination or (B) this Agreement (i) is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii), or (ii) is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(ii), then the Company shall pay to Parent (in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(ii), prior to or simultaneously with such termination, or in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.1(d)(ii), not later than one (1) business day after such termination, or in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 7.1(b)(ii) or 7.1(b)(iii), upon the consummation of such Takeover Proposal) a termination fee equal to $10 million in cash and shall reimburse Parent's out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys' fees, related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The fee arrangement contemplated hereby is the sole remedy hereunder and shall be paid pursuant to this Section 7.3 regardless of any alleged breach, other than a willful or intentional breach, by Parent of its obligations hereunder, provided that no payment made by the Company pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall operate or be construed as a waiver by the Company of any breach of this Agreement by Parent or Purchaser or of any rights of the Company in respect thereof.
Closing Costs; Transfer Taxes and Fees Seller shall be responsible for paying (i) any documentary and transfer taxes and any sales, use or other taxes imposed by reason of the transfers of Assets provided hereunder and any deficiency, interest or penalty asserted with respect thereto and (ii) all costs of obtaining the transfer of existing Permits which may be lawfully transferred, (iii) all fees and costs of recording or filing all applicable conveyancing instruments described in Section 3.1, and (iv) all fees and costs of recording or filing all UCC termination statements and other releases of Encumbrances.
