(b)                                 Except as provided in Section 4.05(c), Sporting shall have the exclusive right to control the conduct and settlement of any Tax Contest relating to any Sporting Separate Tax Return not set forth on Schedule 4.01(a), and ATK shall have the exclusive right to control the conduct and settlement of all other Tax Contests.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conduct or settlement of any portion or aspect of any such Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to obligate any Party to make an

13

Indemnity Payment, then (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to share joint control over the conduct and settlement of that portion or aspect and (ii) whether or not the Indemnifying Party exercises that right, the Indemnified Party shall not accept or enter into any settlement that would obligate the Indemnifying Party to make an Indemnity Payment without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c)                                  ATK and Sporting shall have the right to control jointly the conduct and settlement of any Tax Contest insofar as it relates to Transaction Taxes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, ATK shall be entitled to control exclusively the conduct and settlement of any Tax Contest insofar as it relates to Transaction Taxes if ATK notifies Sporting that (notwithstanding the rights and obligations of the Parties set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) ATK agrees to (i) waive its rights to indemnification for Transaction Taxes under Article III and (ii) pay, and indemnify all of the members of the Sporting Separate Group from and against, any Transaction Taxes resulting from such Tax Contest insofar as it relates to Transaction Taxes.

(d)                                 Each Party shall bear its own expenses in the course of any Tax Contest, other than expenses included in the definition of Transaction Taxes, which shall be governed by Article III.

ARTICLE V

Tax Matters Relating to the Transactions

SECTION 5.01.                 Mutual Covenants.  Neither Party shall take or fail to take, or cause or permit its respective Subsidiaries to take or fail to take, any action, if (i) such Party knows or reasonably should know that such action or omission would be inconsistent with the qualification of any of the Sporting Transfers, Distribution or Merger for its respective Intended Tax Treatment or (ii) such action or omission would be inconsistent with the Tax Opinion Representations of such Party, except, in each case, as otherwise expressly required or permitted by the Transaction Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement.

SECTION 5.02.                 Restricted Actions.  (a) Subject to Section 5.02(b), on or before the second anniversary of the Distribution Date each Party shall not (and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to), in a single transaction or a series of transactions:

14

(iv)                              sell or transfer 30% or more of the gross assets of the Active Trade or Business of such Party or 30% or more of the consolidated gross assets that such Party held immediately before the Distribution; or

(v)                                 redeem or otherwise repurchase (directly or indirectly) any Equity of such Party, except to the extent such redemptions or repurchases satisfy Section 4.05(1)(b) of Revenue Procedure 96-30 (as in effect prior to its amendment by Revenue Procedure 2003-48).

(b)                                 A Party may take or permit, or may cause or permit its Subsidiaries to take, an action that would otherwise violate Section 5.02(a) if such Party provides the other Party with Legal Comfort with respect to such action.

(c)                                  The provisions of this Section 5.02 are intended to monitor compliance with Section 355 of the Code and shall be interpreted accordingly.  Any clarification of, or change in, Section 355 of the Code or the Regulations thereunder shall be incorporated into this Section 5.02 and its interpretation to the extent such clarification or change applies to the actions or permissions addressed in this Section 5.02, provided that no such clarification or change shall have the effect of permitting any action otherwise prohibited under this Section 5.02.

SECTION 5.03.                 Procedures Regarding Legal Comfort.  If either Party seeks to obtain Legal Comfort for purposes of Section 5.02(b), the other Party, at the request of the seeking Party, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to expeditiously obtain, or assist the seeking Party in obtaining, such Legal Comfort (including by executing and delivering to counsel or the IRS customary letters of representation).  Neither Party shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 5.03 if, upon request, the other Party fails to certify that all information and representations relating to such other Party (or any Subsidiary thereof) in the relevant documents are true, correct and complete or fails to obtain certification from any counterparty to any Proposed Acquisition Transaction of such other Party that all information and representations relating to such counterparty in the relevant documents are true, correct and complete.  The seeking Party shall reimburse the other Party for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such other Party (or any Subsidiary thereof) in obtaining Legal Comfort.

SECTION 5.04.                 Notification and Certification Regarding Certain Acquisition Transactions.  If Sporting proposes to enter into any 25% Acquisition Transaction or permit any 25% Acquisition Transaction to occur at any time during the 30-month period following the Distribution Date, Sporting shall undertake in good faith to provide ATK, no later than 10 Business Days following the signing of any written agreement with respect to such 25% Acquisition Transaction or obtaining knowledge of the occurrence of any such 25% Acquisition Transaction that takes place without written agreement, with a written description of such transaction (including the type and amount of Equity of Sporting to be acquired) and additional information as ATK may reasonably request; provided, that in no case shall Sporting be required to provide ATK with any material non-public information.

SECTION 5.06.                 Protective Section 336(e) Election.  With respect to each of the entities listed in Schedule 5.06, the Parties agree that (a) this Agreement constitutes a written, binding agreement to make a Protective Section 336(e) Election for such entity (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that such Protective Section 336(e) Election shall have a Tax effect on the Parties only if (x) Section 355(d) or 355(e) of the Code applies to the Distribution or (y) the Distribution otherwise fails to qualify for nonrecognition treatment under Section 355(c) of the Code) and (b) ATK shall timely make such Protective Section 336(e) Election and timely file such forms as may be contemplated by applicable Tax law or administrative practice to effect each such Protective Section 336(e) Election, except that Sporting shall have the exclusive right to prepare and file (i) the relevant purchase price allocation and any corresponding IRS Form 8883 (or any successor thereto) and (ii) any similar forms required or permitted to be filed under U.S. state or local Law in connection with such Protective Section 336(e) Election.  To the extent the Distribution constitutes a “qualified stock disposition” (as defined in Section 1.336-1(b)(6) of the Regulations) pursuant to a Determination, the Parties shall not and shall not permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to, take any position for Tax purposes inconsistent with any of the Protective Section 336(e) Elections, except as may be required pursuant to a Determination.

(b)                                 For all Tax purposes, each Party shall treat any payment made between the Parties under this Agreement (i) if made by Sporting to ATK, as a distribution, immediately before the Distribution, from Sporting to ATK that reduces ATK’s adjusted tax basis in the Sporting Common Stock or (ii) if made by ATK to Sporting, as a contribution, immediately before the Distribution, from ATK to Sporting that increases ATK’s adjusted tax basis in the Sporting Common Stock, in each case except as otherwise required by applicable Law or a Determination.

Schedule 2.02

Hypothetical Sporting Tax Return Preparation Principles

The Hypothetical Sporting Tax Return shall be prepared on a basis consistent with past practice, except that the Hypothetical Sporting Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the following principles:

1.              the taxable period began on April 1, 2014 and ended at the end of the Distribution Date;

2.              all items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Sporting Business during the taxable period, but only such items, shall be included;

3.              for purposes of paragraph 2 above, an item shall be considered an item of the Sporting Business during the taxable period to the extent such item is (i) allocated to the taxable period and (ii) not allocated to the Acadia Business, in each case pursuant to this Schedule 2.02;

4.              except as otherwise provided in this Schedule 2.02, (i) the extent to which each item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit is allocated to the taxable period and to the Acadia Business shall be determined in a manner consistent in all material respects with the manner in which such item (or a similar item) was allocated to the taxable period and to the Acadia Business for purposes of preparing the Reference Balance Sheets, Interim Period Cash Flow Statement or Adjusted Cash Flow Amount or (ii) if such item (or a similar item) was not taken into account in preparing the Reference Balance Sheets, Interim Period Cash Flow Statement or Adjusted Cash Flow Amount, then reasonable allocation methods shall be used to allocate all or a portion of such item (A) to the taxable period and (B) to the Acadia Business;

5.              all deductions for out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including change-of-control payments and breakage fees) incurred in connection with the Transactions by any member of the Combined Group shall be allocated in their entirety to the Sporting Business (and not to the Acadia Business) and shall be treated as having accrued in their entirety on or before the Distribution Date;

6.              in the case of any deferred intercompany transaction taken into account as a result of the Transactions, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit arising out of such deferred intercompany transaction shall be allocated to the Sporting Business (and not to the Acadia Business);

7.              in the case of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit arising as a result of the allocation, transfer or exchange of a Taxable Rabbi Trust Asset pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.07(h)(ii) of the Transaction Agreement, the amount of such item that shall be allocated to the taxable period and to the Sporting Business shall equal the product of (i) the amount of such item and (ii) a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the total value of all Taxable Rabbi Trust Assets (or the cash and marketable securities for which Taxable Rabbi Trust

Assets are exchanged) allocated and transferred to Sporting Rabbi Trusts pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.07(h)(ii) of the Transaction Agreement and (B) the denominator of which is the total value of all Taxable Rabbi Trust Assets, in each case valued as of the applicable Nonqualified Plan Transfer Date;

8.              the taxable period for any flow-through entity or “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code or any comparable U.S. state or local or foreign Law) in which any member of the Combined Group directly or indirectly owns or has owned Equity ended at the end of the Distribution Date;

9.              each of the Sporting Transfers, Distribution and Merger qualified for its respective Intended Tax Treatment;

10.       notwithstanding paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 above, the Payments and Credits with respect to the Hypothetical Sporting Tax Return shall include the amount of all estimated income Tax payments made in respect of all consolidated, combined, unitary or similar groups that include Acadia or any Acadia Subsidiary, on the one hand, and Sporting or any Sporting Subsidiary, on the other hand; and

11.       for purposes of calculating the Total Tax with respect to the Hypothetical Sporting Tax Return, three percent (3%) shall be added to each U.S. Federal corporate income Tax rate that would otherwise apply.

For purposes of paragraph 7 of this Schedule 2.02, “Taxable Rabbi Trust Asset” means any non-marketable asset (including any corporate-owned life insurance policy) that is (i) held in an Acadia Rabbi Trust immediately prior to the applicable Nonqualified Plan Transfer Date and (ii) allocated and transferred, or exchanged for cash or marketable securities all or a portion of which is allocated and transferred, to a Sporting Rabbi Trust pursuant to and in accordance with Section 8.07(h)(ii) of the Transaction Agreement, but only if that such allocation, transfer or exchange gives rise to any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
