The Purchaser shall procure any stock transfer stamp required by, and accurately file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to, any Transfer Tax. SECTION 6.03. Tax Indemnification. (a) The Seller shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) from and against (i) any and all Taxes imposed on any member (other than the 20 Company, Atlantic, the Atlantic Subsidiaries, General Aviation or the General Aviation FBOs) of any affiliated, consolidated, unitary or other combined group with which the Company, Atlantic, any Atlantic Subsidiary, General Aviation or either General Aviation FBO files or has filed a Tax Return on a consolidated, unitary or other combined basis with respect to the taxable period or portion thereof beginning on the day following the Atlantic Closing Date or the General Aviation Closing Date, respectively, through the Closing Date, except to the extent such Taxes are attributable to the activities or properties of the Company, Atlantic, Atlantic Subsidiaries, General Aviation or the General Aviation FBOs (ii) any Taxes in the nature of penalties and interest imposed on the Purchaser Indemnified Parties (including the Company and its Subsidiaries) to the extent attributable to any breach of the representations contained in Section 3.08 or covenants in Section 6.01 of this Agreement, (iii) any Taxes attributable to the Relevant Period for the entity on which such Taxes are imposed that are not Excluded Taxes and (iv) any loss, damage, liability or expense (including reasonable fees for attorneys and other outside consultants) incurred in contesting or otherwise in connection with any Taxes described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 6.03(a). (b) The Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties against (i) any and all Taxes attributable to the activities or property of the Company, Atlantic, the Atlantic Subsidiaries, General Aviation or the General Aviation FBOs which any Seller Indemnified Party become liable by reason of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law) and (ii) any loss, damage, liability or expense (including reasonable fees for attorneys and other outside consultants) incurred in contesting or otherwise in connection with any Taxes described in clause (i) of Section 6.03(a).

(d) All Indemnity Payments shall be paid in immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the later of (i) receipt of a written request from the party entitled to such Tax Indemnity Payment and (ii) the day of payment of the amount that is the subject of the Tax Indemnity Payment by the party entitled to receive such Tax Indemnity Payment. SECTION 6.04. Contests. (a) After the Closing, each party shall promptly notify the other parties in writing of any written notice of a proposed assessment or claim in an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding, which, if determined adversely to the taxpayer, would be grounds for indemnification under Section 6.03; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice will not affect any party's right to indemnification under this Agreement except to the extent, if any, that, but for such failure, the indemnifying party would have avoided the Tax Liability in question. (b) In the case of an audit or administrative or judicial proceeding (a "Contest") that relates to a Pre-Closing Period, the Seller shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in and control the conduct of such Contest, but only to the extent that such Contest 21 relates solely to a potential adjustment to Tax Liability for which the Seller has acknowledged, in writing, its liability under Section 6.03 to hold the Purchaser and the Company harmless against the full amount of any adjustment which may be made as a result of such Contest. The Purchaser also may participate in any such Contest, and, if the Seller does not assume the defense of any such Contest, the Purchaser may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Contest after five days' prior written notice to the Seller setting forth the terms and conditions of settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that issues relating to a potential adjustment for which the Seller has acknowledged its liability in writing are required to be contested in the same Contest as separate issues relating to a potential adjustment for which the Purchaser would be liable, the Purchaser shall have the right, at its expense, to control the Contest with respect to the latter issues. (c) In the case of a Contest that relates to a Straddle Period, or otherwise with respect to issues relating to a potential adjustment for which both the Seller (as evidenced by its written acknowledgement of liability under Section 6.03), on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other hand, could be liable, (i) the Seller and the Purchaser may participate in the Contest, and (ii) such Contest shall be controlled by that party which would bear the burden of the greater portion of the sum of the adjustment and any corresponding adjustments that may reasonably be anticipated for future taxable periods. The principle set forth in this Section 6.04(c) also shall govern for purposes of deciding any issue that must be decided jointly (including choice of judicial forum) in situations in which separate issues are otherwise controlled under this Article VI by the Purchaser and the Seller. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Seller shall not enter into any compromise or agree to settle any claim pursuant to a Contest, which would materially adversely affect the Purchaser or the Company in a taxable period ending after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. SECTION 6.05. Miscellaneous. (a) From and after the date of this Agreement, the Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, make, or cause or permit to be made, any Tax election that would adversely affect the Company in a taxable period ending after the Closing Date. (b) The Seller and its Affiliates shall provide the Purchaser with such cooperation and information as the Purchaser reasonably may request in connection with any Tax matters relating to the Company, including, without limitation, the filing of any Tax Return or claim for refund, the determination of any liability for Taxes or right to a refund of Taxes or the conduct of any Contest in respect of Taxes. Such cooperation and information shall include, without limitation, providing the Purchaser with copies of any relevant Tax Returns, together with documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities.
