Third Party Claims shall be administered as set forth in Sections 6.6 through 6.8 below. |

(i) | At least 30 days prior to the due date of any Tax Return covered by this Section 7.3.2, MiMedx will deliver such Tax Return to the Stockholder Representative for review and comment (unless such a Tax Return is due less than 30 days after the Closing Date, in which case MiMedx will deliver such Tax Return as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the applicable due date). If the Stockholder Representative fails within ten (10) days of receipt of such Tax Return (the “Tax Return Objection Period”) to notify MiMedx of any objection with respect thereto, then the Stockholder Representative will be deemed to have approved and consented to the filing of such Tax Return. If the Stockholder Representative objects to such Tax Return, the Stockholder Representative will provide, prior to the expiration of the Tax Return Objection Period, a written notice to MiMedx (a “Tax Return Objection”) setting forth in reasonable detail those items to which the Stockholder Representative objects and the Stockholder Representative’s proposed adjustments thereto. During the ten (10) day period following delivery of a Tax Return Objection (the “Tax Return Negotiation Period”), MiMedx and Stockholder Representative will negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving any disagreements over the Stockholder Representative’s suggested adjustments to the Tax Return in question. If they fail to resolve their disagreements within the Tax Return Negotiation Period, then they will forthwith jointly request that the Independent Accountant make a binding determination with respect to such Tax Return Objection. Unless otherwise agreed by MiMedx and the Stockholder Representative, the Independent Accountant will have no more than five (5) Business Days from the date of referral within which to render a written decision with respect to the Stockholder Representative’s suggested adjustments to the Tax Return in question, as set forth in the Tax Return Objection, and such decision of the Independent Accountant will be final and binding on MiMedx and Stockholder Representative for all purposes. MiMedx will file such Tax Return in accordance with the Independent Accountant’s final decision; provided, however, that in the event that the Independent Accountant’s final decision is not delivered prior to the filing deadline for the Tax Return in question, MiMedx will be entitled to file such Tax Return subject to the Tax Return Objection (it being understood that MiMedx will, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, amend the Tax Return in question within ten (10) days after |
(ii) | In the case of Taxes of or with respect to Stability LLC or its operations that are payable with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Taxes allocable to the MiMedx Operating Period shall be: (a) deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date as defined in this Agreement, in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld; and (b) in the case of all other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date as defined in this Agreement and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and MiMedx shall timely pay all such Taxes that are due and payable with respect to a Straddle Period that are allocable to the MiMedx Operating Period. The Stockholders shall timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable with respect to Stability LLC or its operations for a Straddle Period that are not allocable to the MiMedx Operating Period. |
7.3.4. | Except as provided in Section 7.3.2 with respect to Straddle Periods, the Stockholder Representative shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed with respect Stability LLC or its operations for all periods other than the MiMedx Operating Period, and the Stockholders shall or shall cause Stability LLC to (as applicable) timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable with respect to Stability LLC or its operations for such periods. |

Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of the Stockholder Representative, MiMedx, and Stability LLC shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of Stability LLC for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other |
