Such Member recognizes that reliance upon such exemptions is based in part upon the representations and warranties of such Member contained in this Section 5.3.

7.2.       Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Member. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if the Company is required by law (as determined by the Tax Matters Partner based on the advice of legal or tax counsel to the Company) to make any payment on behalf of a Member in its capacity as such (including in respect of withholding taxes, personal property taxes, and unincorporated business taxes, etc.), then such Member (the “Indemnifying Member”) will indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid, including interest, penalties and expenses associated with such payment. At the option of any Managing Member, the amount to be indemnified may be charged against a Capital Account of the Indemnifying Member, and, at the option of a Managing Member, either:

 

(a)        promptly upon notification of an obligation to indemnify the Company, the Indemnifying Member will make a cash payment to the Company in an amount equal to the full amount to be indemnified (and the amount paid will be added to the Indemnifying Member’s Capital Account but will not be deemed to be a Capital Contribution), or

 

 

(b)       the Company will reduce distributions which would otherwise be made to the Indemnifying Member until the Company has recovered the amount to be indemnified (and the amount of such reduction will be deemed to have been distributed for all purposes, but such deemed distribution will not further reduce the Indemnifying Member’s Capital Account).

 

A Member’s obligation to make contributions to the Company under this Section 7.2 will survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company, and for purposes of this Section 7.2, the Company will be treated as continuing in existence. The Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Member under this Section 7.2, including instituting a lawsuit to collect such contribution with interest calculated at a rate equal to the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ effective cost of borrowed funds.

Each Member agrees to cooperate with the Tax Matters Partner and to do or refrain from doing any or all things reasonably requested by the Tax Matters Partner with respect to the conduct of such proceedings. Subject to the foregoing proviso, the Tax Matters Partner will have sole discretion to determine whether the Company (either in its own behalf or on behalf of the Members) will contest or continue to contest any tax deficiencies assessed or proposed to be assessed by any taxing authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.5, the Tax Matters Partner (x) shall provide each Member with prompt notice of any tax proceeding and (y) shall not bind any Member to any settlement that could reasonably be expected to adversely impact such Member without the prior consent of such Member (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
