Tax Protest. If, as a result of any tax protest or otherwise, any refund or reduction of any real property or other tax or assessment relating to the Property during the period for which, under the terms of this Agreement, Seller is responsible, Seller shall be entitled to receive or retain such refund or the benefit of such reduction, less equitable prorated costs of collection.
Tax Protest. If as a result of any tax protest or otherwise any refund or reduction of real property or other tax or assessment relating to the Property during the period prior to Closing, Seller shall be entitled to receive or retain such refund or the benefit of such reduction, less equitable prorated costs of collection and subject to the rights of tenants under leases as to any such refunds. To the extent any such tax protest or proceedings are ongoing as of the Closing, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to continue to pursue such protest or proceeding following the Closing, but only to the extent that it applies to the pre-closing tax periods.
Tax Protest. Tenant waives all rights under the Texas Property Tax Code, now or hereafter in effect, including all rights under Sections 41.413 and 42.015 thereof, granting to tenants of real property or lessees of tangible personal property the right to protest the appraised value, or receive notice of reappraisal, of all or any part of the Complex, irrespective of whether Landlord has elected to protest such appraised value. To the extent such waiver is prohibited, Tenant appoints Landlord as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to appear and take all actions on behalf of Tenant which Tenant may take under the Texas Property Tax Code.
Tax Protest. Tenant may contest any Taxes by appropriate proceedings conducted at Tenant’s expense in Tenant’s name or, if required by law, in Landlord’s name. Landlord shall cooperate with Tenant and execute any documents or pleadings reasonably required for such purpose, but Landlord shall not be obligated to incur any expense or liability in connection with such contest. Tenant may defer payment of the contested Taxes pending the outcome of such contest, if such deferment does not subject Landlord’s interest in the Premises to forfeiture. Tenant shall deposit with Landlord, if Landlord so requests, an amount of money at least equal to the payment so deferred plus estimated penalties and interest. Upon notice to Tenant, Landlord may pay such contested Taxes from such deposit if necessary to protect Landlord’s interest in the Premises from immediate sale or loss. When all contested Taxes have been paid or canceled, all moneys so deposited to secure the same and not applied to the payment thereof shall be repaid to Tenant without interest. In lieu of any such deposit, at its election Tenant may furnish a bond in a form, in an amount, and with a surety reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. All refunds of Taxes shall be the property of Tenant to the extent they are refunds of or on account of payments made by Tenant.
Tax Protest. If, as a result of any tax protest or otherwise, any refund is paid or reduction of any real property or other tax or assessment is made available relating to the Property with respect to any period for which, under the terms of this Agreement, Seller is responsible, Seller shall be entitled to receive or retain such refund or the benefit of such reduction, less the equitable prorated costs of collection. Such refund shall be delivered to Seller within ten (10) days of receipt. The terms and provisions of this Section 11.14 shall survive closing hereunder.
Tax Protest. If, as of the Closing Date, there shall be any tax certiorari proceedings or tax protest proceedings pending with respect to any portion or all of the Property, all benefits obtained thereby including, without limitation, any tax refunds, after deducting the cost of such proceedings, including attorneys fees, shall: (i) if attributable to any tax year ended prior to the Closing Date, be paid to Seller; (ii) if attributable to any tax year commencing after the Closing Date, be retained by Purchaser; and (iii) if attributable to the tax year in which the Closing Date occurs, be apportioned between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date. This provision shall survive the Closing.
Tax Protest. In the event a taxpayer other than Rackspace timely and properly protests or contests the taxation and/or the Taxable Value of a property in the Annexed Area, the obligation of the City to provide Grant(s) shall not be abated, but if any protest or motion with the Bexar Appraisal District results in a final determination that changes the Taxable Value or tax liability after a Grant has been paid for such Tax Year, the Grant for such Tax Year shall be adjusted (increased or decreased as the case may be) accordingly on the following Grant payment date. If there are no further Grants to be paid, then the Party owed an adjustment shall be paid directly by the other Party. Rackspace shall notify the City in writing in the event of a protest or contest by Rackspace, and the obligation of the City to provide Grant(s) shall be abated hereunder until a final determination has been made of such protest or contest and the Expiration Date shall automatically be extended during the abatement, if necessary.
Tax Protest. A. Provided no Event of Default by Tenant has occurred and is continuing, Tenant shall have the right, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 26.A, to (i) participate in any protest or contest of the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage instituted by Landlord during the Term hereof, or (ii) institute with the applicable taxing authorities a protest or contest of the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage for any year during the Term hereof that Landlord elects not to so institute such protest or contest of such taxes. Upon written request by Tenant at any time prior to the latest date on which a notice of protest or contest must be filed with respect to ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage for such year, Landlord shall advise Tenant in writing as to whether it will protest or contest the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage for such year. If Landlord advises Tenant that it will so protest or contest the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage for such year, upon written request from time to time by Tenant, Landlord shall keep Tenant (specifically, Chief Executive Officer, currently Xxxxx Xxxxxx) apprised of the status and/or outcome of such protest or contest and Tenant shall have the right to appear at hearings and mediation or arbitration proceedings in regard to such taxes; provided, however, Landlord shall have the right to settle, compromise or otherwise determine the valuation of the Complex and/or the Garage for ad valorem tax purposes for any calendar year and Tenant’s consent thereto shall not be required. If, however, Landlord advises Tenant that it will not protest or contest the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or the Garage for such year, Tenant may advise Landlord that it desires to so protest or contest such ad valorem taxes. In such event, Landlord may, within ten (10) days thereafter, advise Tenant in writing that it has elected to proceed with a protest or contest of the ad valorem taxes for such year. If Landlord elects not to so proceed with a contest or protest of the ad valorem taxes assessed against the Complex and/or Garage for such year, Tenant may proceed with a protest or contest of such ad valorem taxes for such year so long as Tenant conducts such protest or contest using a tax consulting firm and counsel reasonably approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be unreaso...
Tax Protest. If as a result of a protest of the real property taxes relating to the Property for any year prior to the year of the Closing any refund or reduction of any real property or other tax or assessment relating to the Property is obtained, such refund or reduction shall belong to Contributor after first providing for payment of costs of collection (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) and adjustments owed Tenants under the Leases. If as a result of a protest of the real property taxes relating to the Property for the year of the Closing any refund or reduction of any real property or other tax or assessment relating to the Property for the year of the Closing is obtained, such refund or reduction shall be prorated between Contributor and BKP based upon their respective periods of ownership of the Property during the year of the Closing, after first providing for payment of costs of collection (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements which shall be prorated between Contributor and BKP if the tax protest involves more than one calendar year) and adjustments owed Tenants under the Leases. The parties agree that Contributor shall have the right to file, maintain, control and settle the protest of the real property taxes relating to the Property for the full calendar years prior to the Closing, and BKP shall cooperate in connection therewith. This provision shall survive the Closing.
Tax Protest. Notwithstanding the provision of Paragraph 4(e) above, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall have the right to seek a reduction in or otherwise contest any Taxes by action or proceeding against the entity with authority to assess or impose the same. Landlord shall not be required to join in any proceeding or action brought by Tenant; provided however, that Tenant shall be required to provide written notice to Landlord of any such proceeding that Tenant pursues and copies of all correspondence relating thereto. Tenant shall continue, during the pendency of such proceeding or action, to pay all Additional Rent owing hereunder. Tax refunds shall be credited against Taxes for the associated period and refunded to Tenant regardless of when received, based on the period to which the refund is applicable, provided that in no event shall the amount to be refunded to Tenant for any such period exceed the total amount paid by Tenant for Taxes as Additional Rent under this Article 4 for such period. If Taxes for any period during the Term or any extension thereof are increased after payment thereof for any reason, including, without limitation, error or reassessment by applicable governmental or municipal authorities, Tenant shall pay its Proportionate Share of such increased Taxes.
