(c) Distributing shall forward to Spinco, or reimburse Spinco for, any such refunds, credits or offsets, plus any interest received thereon, net of any Taxes incurred with respect to the receipt or accrual thereof and any expenses incurred in connection therewith, that are for the account of Spinco within five business days from receipt thereof by Distributing or any of its Affiliates. Spinco shall forward to Distributing, or reimburse Distributing for, any refunds, credits or offsets, plus any interest received thereon, net of any Taxes incurred with respect to the receipt or accrual thereof and any expenses incurred in connection therewith, that are for the account of Distributing within five business days from receipt thereof by Spinco or any of its Affiliates. Any refunds, credits or offsets, plus any interest received thereon, or reimbursements not forwarded or made within the five business day period specified above shall bear interest from the date received by the refunding or reimbursing party (or its Affiliates) through and including the date of payment at the Interest Rate (treating the date received as the Due Date for purposes of determining such Interest Rate). If, subsequent to a Tax Authority’s allowance of a refund, credit or offset, such Tax Authority reduces or eliminates such allowance, any refund, credit or offset, plus any interest received thereon, forwarded or reimbursed under this Section 3.5 shall be returned to the party who had forwarded or reimbursed such refund, credit or offset and interest upon the request of such forwarding party in an amount equal to the applicable reduction, including any interest received thereon.

3.6 Carrybacks. If and to the extent that Spinco requests in writing that Distributing or any of its Affiliates obtain a refund, credit or offset of Taxes with respect to the carryback of any Tax attribute of the members of the Spinco Group arising in a Post-Distribution Period to a Pre-Distribution Period, and provided that Distributing or any of its Affiliates would not otherwise be required to forego a refund, credit or offset

of Taxes for its own account or otherwise be adversely affected as a result of such carryback, then (i) Distributing (or its Affiliate) shall take all reasonable measures to obtain a refund, credit or offset of Tax with respect to such carryback (including by filing an amended Tax Return), and (ii) to the extent that Distributing or any of its Affiliates receives any refund, credit or offset of Taxes attributable (on a last dollar basis) to such carryback, Distributing shall pay such refund, credit or offset, plus any interest received thereon, to Spinco within five business days from receipt thereof by Distributing or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, that Distributing shall be entitled to reduce the amount of any such refund, credit or offset for its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and any Taxes incurred with respect to the receipt or accrual thereof; and provided further, that Spinco, upon the request of Distributing, agrees to repay such refund, credit or offset, plus any interest received thereon and net of Taxes, to Distributing in the event, and to the extent, that Distributing is required to repay such refund, credit or offset, plus any interest received thereon, to a Tax Authority.

3.7 Amended Returns. Any amended Tax Return or claim for Tax refund, credit or offset with respect to any member of the Spinco Group may be made only by the Company (or its Subsidiaries) responsible for preparing the original Tax Return with respect to such member pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2. Spinco (or its Subsidiaries) shall not, without the prior written consent of Distributing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), file, or cause to be filed, any such amended Tax Return or claim for Tax refund, credit or offset to the extent that such filing, if accepted, is likely to increase the Taxes allocated to, or the Tax indemnity obligations under this Agreement of, Distributing for any Tax Year (or portion thereof) by more than a de minimis amount; provided, however, that such consent need not be obtained if Spinco agrees to indemnify Distributing for the incremental Taxes allocated to, or the incremental Tax indemnity obligation resulting under this Agreement to, Distributing as a result of the filing of such amended Tax Return.

SECTION 4. Tax Payments.

4.1 Payment of Taxes to Tax Authority. Distributing shall be responsible for remitting to the proper Tax Authority the Tax shown on any Tax Return for which it is responsible for the preparation and filing pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.2, and Spinco shall be responsible for remitting to the proper Tax Authority the Tax shown on any Tax Return for which it is responsible for the preparation and filing pursuant to Section 3.2.

4.2 Indemnification Payments.

(a) Tax Payments Made by the Distributing Group. If any member of the Distributing Group is required to make a payment to a Tax Authority for Taxes allocated to Spinco under this Agreement, Spinco will pay the amount of Taxes allocated to it to Distributing not later than the later of (i) five business days after receiving notification requesting such amount, and (ii) one business day prior to the date such payment is required to be made to such Tax Authority.

(b) Tax Payments Made by the Spinco Group. If any member of the Spinco Group is required to make a payment to a Tax Authority for Taxes allocated to Distributing under this Agreement, Distributing will pay the amount of Taxes allocated to it to Spinco not later than the later of (i) five business days after receiving notification requesting such amount, and (ii) one business day prior to the date such payment is required to be made to such Tax Authority.

4.3 Interest on Late Payments. Payments pursuant to this Agreement that are not made by the date prescribed in this Agreement or, if no such date is prescribed, not later than five business days after demand for payment is made (the “Due Date”) shall bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the Due Date through and including the date of payment at the Interest Rate. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates.

4.4 Tax Consequences of Payments. For all Tax purposes and to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law, the parties hereto shall treat any payment made pursuant to this Agreement as a capital contribution or a distribution, as the case may be, immediately prior to the Distribution. If the receipt or accrual of any indemnity payment under this Agreement causes, directly or indirectly, an increase in the taxable income of the recipient under one or more applicable Tax Laws, such payment shall be increased so that, after the payment of any Taxes with respect to the payment, the recipient thereof shall have realized the same net amount it would have realized had the payment not resulted in taxable income. To the extent that Taxes for which any party hereto (the indemnifying party) is required to pay another party (the indemnified party) pursuant to this Agreement may be deducted or credited in determining the amount of any other Taxes required to be paid by the indemnified party (for example, state Taxes which are permitted to be deducted in determining federal Taxes), the amount of any payment made to the indemnified party by the indemnifying party shall be decreased by taking into account any resulting reduction in other Taxes of the indemnified party. If such a reduction in Taxes of the indemnified party occurs following the payment made to the indemnified Party with respect to the relevant indemnified Taxes, the indemnified party shall promptly repay the indemnifying party the amount of such reduction when actually realized. If the Tax benefit arising from the foregoing reduction of Taxes described in this Section 4.4 is subsequently decreased or eliminated, then the indemnifying party shall promptly pay the indemnified party the amount of the decrease in such Tax benefit.

SECTION 5. Assistance and Cooperation.

5.1 Cooperation. In addition to the obligations enumerated in Sections 3.3 and 7.7, Distributing and Spinco will cooperate (and cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to cooperate) with each other and with each other’s agents, including accounting firms and legal counsel, in connection with Tax matters, including provision of relevant documents and information in their possession and making available to each other, as reasonably requested and available, personnel (including officers, directors, employees and agents of the parties or their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates) responsible for preparing, maintaining, and interpreting information and documents relevant to Taxes, and personnel reasonably required as witnesses or for

purposes of providing information or documents in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes.

5.2 Supplemental Rulings.

(a) Each of the parties agrees that, at the reasonable request of another party (the “Requesting Party”), Distributing and Spinco shall (and shall cause each member of its Group) to cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to obtain, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable, a Supplemental Ruling from the IRS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributing shall not be required to file any Supplemental IRS Submission unless Spinco represents to Distributing that (i) it has reviewed the Supplemental IRS Submission, and (ii) all information and representations, if any, relating to any member of the Spinco Group and their Affiliates contained in the Supplemental IRS Submission are true, correct and complete in all material respects. The Requesting Party shall reimburse the other parties for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such parties or their Affiliates in connection with obtaining or requesting such Supplemental Ruling within five business days after receiving an invoice from such party therefor.

(b) Distributing shall provide Spinco with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on each Supplemental IRS Submission to be filed by Distributing prior to the filing of such Supplemental IRS Submission with the IRS, and Spinco shall provide Distributing with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on each Supplemental IRS Submission to be filed by Spinco prior to the filing of such Supplemental IRS Submission with the IRS. No Supplemental IRS Submission shall be filed by Spinco with the IRS unless, prior to such filing Distributing shall have agreed as to the contents of such Supplemental IRS Submission to the extent that the Supplemental IRS Submission (i) includes statements or representations relating to facts that are or will be under the control of any member of the Distributing Group or any of its Affiliates or (ii) is relevant to, or creates, any actual or potential obligations of, or limitations on, any member of the Distributing Group or any of their Affiliates; provided, however, that if the IRS requests same-day filing of a Supplemental IRS Submission that does not include any material issue or statement, then Spinco is required only to make a good faith effort to notify Distributing’s representatives and to give such representatives an opportunity to review and comment on such Supplemental IRS Submission prior to filing it with the IRS. No Supplemental IRS Submission shall be filed by Distributing with the IRS unless, prior to the filing, Spinco shall have agreed as to the contents of such Supplemental IRS Submission to the extent that the Supplemental IRS Submission (i) includes statements or representations relating to facts that are or will be under the control of any member of the Spinco Group or any of its Affiliates or (ii) is relevant to, or creates, any actual or potential obligations of, or limitations on, any member of the Spinco Group or any of their Affiliates; provided, however, that if the IRS requests same-day filing of a Supplemental IRS Submission that does not include any material issue or statement, then Distributing is required only to make a good faith effort to notify Spinco’s representatives and to give such representatives an opportunity to review and comment on such Supplemental IRS Submission prior to filing it with the IRS. Each Company (or its representatives) shall provide the other Company (or its representatives)

with copies of each Supplemental IRS Submission filed with the IRS promptly following the filing thereof. Neither Company nor its representatives shall conduct any substantive communications with the IRS regarding any material issue arising with respect to any Supplemental Ruling, including meetings or conferences with IRS personnel, whether telephonically, in person or otherwise, without first notifying the other Company (or its representatives) and giving the other Company (or its representatives) a reasonable opportunity to participate, and a reasonable number of such Company’s representatives shall have an opportunity to participate in all conferences or meetings with IRS personnel that take place in person, regardless of the nature of the issues expected to be discussed; provided, however, that in the case of communications concerning a Supplemental Ruling that occur during an unscheduled conference initiated by the IRS or a conference initiated by a Company or its representatives for a purpose unrelated to a Supplemental Ruling in connection with which it is not reasonably practicable to provide to the other Company or its representatives advance notice and an opportunity to participate, such Company (or its representatives) shall promptly update the other Company and its representatives as to the content of such communications. Each Company shall promptly provide the other Company (or its representatives) with copies of any correspondence received by such Company (or its representatives) from the IRS relating to any Supplemental Ruling.

SECTION 6. Tax Records.

6.1 Retention of Tax Records. Each of Distributing and Spinco shall preserve, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to preserve, all Tax Records that are in their possession, and that could affect the liability of any member of the other Group for Taxes, for as long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (x) the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation, as extended, and (y) seven years after the Distribution Date.

6.2 Access to Tax Records. Spinco shall make available, and cause its Subsidiaries to make available, to members of the Distributing Group for inspection and copying (x) all Tax Records in their possession that relate to a Pre-Distribution Period, and (y) the portion of any Tax Record in their possession that relates to a Post-Distribution Period and which is reasonably necessary for the preparation of a Tax Return by a member of the Distributing Group or any of their Affiliates or with respect to a Tax Contest by a Tax Authority of such return. Distributing shall make available, and cause its Subsidiaries to make available, to members of the Spinco Group for inspection and copying the portion of any Tax Record in their possession that relates to a Pre-Distribution Period and which is reasonably necessary for the preparation of a Tax Return by a member of the Spinco Group or any of their Affiliates or with respect to a Tax Contest by a Tax Authority of such return.

6.3 Confidentiality. Each party hereby agrees that it will hold, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel, consultants, advisors and agents to hold, in confidence all records and information prepared and shared by and among the parties in carrying out the intent

of this Agreement, except as may otherwise be necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes or unless disclosure is compelled by a governmental authority. Information and documents of one party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall not be deemed to be confidential for purposes of this Section 6.3 to the extent such information or document (i) is previously known to or in the possession of the other party or parties (the “Receiving Party”) and is not otherwise subject to a requirement to be kept confidential, (ii) becomes publicly available by means other than unauthorized disclosure under this Agreement by the Receiving Party or (iii) is received from a third party without, to the knowledge of the Receiving Party after reasonable diligence, a duty of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party.

6.4 Delivery of Tax Records. Within five business days after receiving notification from Spinco requesting any applicable Tax Records described below which are in the possession of a member of the Distributing Group, Distributing shall provide to Spinco (to the extent not previously provided or held by any member of the Spinco Group on the Distribution Date) copies of (i) the Separate Returns of any member of the Spinco Group, (ii) the relevant portions of any other Tax Returns with respect to any member of the Spinco Group, and (iii) other existing Tax Records (or the relevant portions thereof) reasonably necessary to prepare and file any Tax Returns of, or with respect to, the members of the Spinco Group, or to defend or contest Tax matters relevant to the members of the Spinco Group, including in each case, all Tax Records related to Tax attributes of the members of the Spinco Group and any and all communications or agreements with, or rulings by, any Tax Authority with respect to any member of the Spinco Group.

(a) General Restrictions. Following the Effective Time, Spinco shall not, and shall cause the members of the Spinco Group and their Affiliates not to, and Distributing shall not, and shall cause the members of the Distributing Group and their Affiliates not to, take any action that, or fail to take any action the failure of which, (i) would cause Distributing or any Subsidiary of Distributing immediately prior to the Distribution to recognize gain or loss, or otherwise include any amount in income, as a result of the Restructuring for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii) would be inconsistent with the Contribution and Distribution qualifying, or would preclude the Contribution and Distribution from qualifying, as a tax-free transaction described under Sections 368(a), 355 and 361 of the Code, or (iii) would cause Distributing, Spinco, any of their respective Subsidiaries at the Effective Time, or the holders of Liberty Ventures Common Stock that receive stock of Spinco in the Distribution, to recognize gain or loss, or otherwise include any amount in income, as a result of the Contribution and/or the Distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(c) Reporting.

Each Company shall provide prompt notice to the other Company of any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest of which it becomes aware relating to Taxes for which it is or may be indemnified by such other Company hereunder (other than any Transaction Taxes which shall be governed by Section 7.8). Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Tax Authority in respect of any such matters; provided, however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided hereunder except, and only to the extent that, the indemnifying Company shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.
