This excerpt taken from the MRVL 10-K filed Apr 13, 2006. (b) Other Tax Returns and Payment of Taxes.(i) Except as provided in Section 6.14(a), Seller and the Other Sellers, respectively, shall be liable for and shall remit when due or cause to be remitted when due any amount of Taxes owed by or attributable to the Purchased Seller Subsidiaries, the Purchased Assets, the Transferred Business Intellectual Property or the Transferred Business Intellectual Property Rights for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date. Seller or the Other Sellers shall duly file or cause to be duly filed any Tax Return required to be filed in respect of any Tax which it is required to pay pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. Such Tax Returns shall be subject to the review and approval of Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.(ii) Purchaser shall be liable for and shall remit when due or cause to be remitted when due any amount of Taxes due in connection with the Purchased Assets and the Purchased Seller Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall duly file or cause to be duly filed any Tax Return required to be filed in respect of any Tax which it is required to pay pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.(iii) Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns with respect to the Purchased Assets and the Purchased Seller Subsidiaries for taxable periods that begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (a Straddle Period). Seller or the applicable Other Seller, as applicable, shall pay to Purchaser within five days after the date on which Taxes are paid with respect to a Straddle Period an amount equal to the portion of such Taxes which relates to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date. For purposes of this Section 6.14(b)(iii), in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and 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 (x) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire taxable period, and (y) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts be deemed to be equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended on and included the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a Straddle Period shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date.

(iv) If, after the Closing, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receives any refund that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Purchased Seller Subsidiaries or that is an Excluded Asset or utilizes the benefit of any overpayment or prepayment of Taxes of a Purchased Seller Subsidiary that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or that otherwise are Excluded Assets, Purchaser shall, or shall cause such Affiliate to, promptly remit or cause to be remitted to Seller or the applicable Other Seller, as the case may be, the entire amount of the refund or overpayment (including any interest paid by the Governmental Authority paying the refund or the overpayment, but net of any Taxes that may be due on such refund or interest amount after giving effect to any deductions in respect of the payment of such amounts to Seller or the applicable Other Subsidiary, as applicable) received or utilized by Purchaser or such Affiliate. If any such refund or benefit is subsequently reduced as a result of an adjustment required by any Governmental Authority, this Section 6.14(c) shall take such adjusted refund or benefit into account. If Purchaser or any of its Affiliates pays any amount to Seller or an Other Seller pursuant to this Section 6.14(c) prior to such adjustment, Seller or the applicable Other Seller shall repay the difference between the amount paid and the adjusted amount of the refund or benefit, as the case may be, to Purchaser, if the adjusted amount is less than the amount paid by Purchaser or such Affiliate to Seller or an Other Seller pursuant to this Section 6.14(c), and Purchaser shall pay the difference between the adjusted amount of the refund or benefit and the amount paid by Purchaser or such Affiliate to Seller or the applicable Other Seller if the amount paid by Purchaser or such Affiliate to Seller or the applicable Other Seller is less than the adjusted amount. |
