The foregoing provisions will be included in the Agreement negotiated by the parties.
 
All Party A Transactions are entered into on the understanding that this Confirmation and any Other Confirmations form a single agreement between the parties, and the parties would not otherwise enter into this Transaction or any Other Transaction(s).

In that event, unless otherwise agreed, Payor shall pay such additional amounts as will result in the net amounts receivable by Payee (after taking account of such withholding or deduction) being equal to such amounts as would have been received by Payee had no such Tax been required to be withheld or deducted; provided the term “Tax” shall not include any Tax that would not been imposed but for (i) the failure of Payee to timely deliver any tax form or document reasonably requested by Payor, or (ii) the existence of any present or former connection between Payee and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax other than the mere receipt of payment from Payor or the performance of Payee’s obligations under any Party A Transaction.
