23.01       Indemnification of Seller and Owner Participant.  Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold Seller and each Owner Participant and their divisions, subsidiaries, Affiliates, the assignees of each, suppliers, subcontractors, and their respective officers, employees and agents (each, a “Seller Indemnitee”, and collectively with Seller, the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless, on an After-Tax basis, from and against any and all Liabilities which may arise in any manner, out of or in relation to injury to or death of any person or loss or damage to any property of any third party which may result from or arise in any manner out of or be attributable to:  (i) the condition, ownership, purchase, leasing, possession, delivery, disposition use or operation of the applicable Aircraft either in the air or on the ground; or (ii) any defect in the applicable Aircraft arising from any maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing of such Aircraft, in each case, solely to the extent arising at or after Closing; provided that Purchaser’s obligations under this Section to Seller Indemnitees shall not extend to any Liabilities of a Seller Indemnitee to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Seller Indemnitees, or by any misrepresentation or breach of the obligations of such Seller Indemnitee under this Agreement.

18



 

Owner Participant’s failure to comply with this Agreement or nonperformance in relation to any applicable laws governing Seller’s or the applicable Owner Participant’s obligations hereunder and (iii) taxes arising a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Seller or the applicable Owner Participant.  Purchaser (i) shall have the right to contest any such assessment or proposed assessment of any Sales Tax by appropriate judicial or administrative proceedings or both and Seller or the applicable Owner Participant agrees to take any action reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with any such contest; and (ii) shall have the right to require Seller or the applicable Owner Participant to contest any such assessment or proposed assessment of any Sales Tax reportable on a tax return of Seller or the applicable Owner Participant by appropriate judicial or administrative proceedings or both (Purchaser being allowed a reasonable opportunity to consult with and participate in such contest).  Purchaser agrees to indemnify, reimburse and hold Seller or the applicable Owner Participant harmless from any costs or expenses in connection with any such contest, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses.  If, after any such contest, Seller or the applicable Owner Participant shall nevertheless be required to pay any Sales Tax that it is being indemnified for by Purchaser, Purchaser, upon written notice from Seller or the applicable Owner Participant, shall pay to the appropriate taxing authorities the full amount thereof, including interest and penalties.  Nothing herein shall require any party to provide the other with any of its federal, state or local income tax returns.

 

The Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Purchaser to schedule each Closing so as to eliminate or minimize (including but not limited to as a result of the location of each Airframe or Engine, as the case may be, at such time of the Closing) any Sales Taxes incurred as a result of the conveyances contemplated by this Agreement.

 

Section 25.            Headings.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
