(iv) any interest, penalties or additions to Tax imposed against or payable by <br />Landlord or any affiliate thereof that are the result (in whole or in part) of <br />the failure of such entity to prepare and file any return properly and <br />timely; and/or <br />(v) Taxes that would not have been imposed but for any failure of Landlord or <br />any affiliate thereof to comply with certification, information, <br />documentation, reporting or other similar requirements (each, a <br />"Requirement") concerning the nationality, residence, identity or <br />connection with the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes, if such compliance <br />is required by statute or regulation of the jurisdiction imposing such Taxes <br />as a precondition to relief or exemption from such Taxes and Landlord or <br />said affiliate was eligible to comply with such Requirement; provided, <br />however, that the exclusion set forth in this clause (v) shall not apply if <br />such failure to comply is due to a failure of the Tenant to provide <br />reasonable assistance or response in complying with such request. <br />5.2 Payment of Taxes. Tenant shall pay directly to the taxing authority, not less than <br />fifteen (15) days before any fine, penalty, interest or cost is incurred, all Taxes payable during <br />the Term. In the event that the manner of collection of Taxes should require that any Taxes be <br />paid to the applicable taxing authority by Landlord, Tenant shall pay such Taxes to Landlord <br />within thirty (30) days of receipt of a copy of reasonable evidence showing the amount of Taxes <br />due. Tenant shall pay, at its sole cost and expense, in timely fashion to the taxing authorities, or <br />to Landlord if Landlord is required to pay such Taxes, that portion of the Taxes in the nature of <br />real estate taxes and assessments payable during the year in which the Term expires which the <br />number of days in said year within the Term bears to 365, and Landlord shall pay to the taxing <br />authorities, or to Tenant if paid by Tenant, the balance of such Taxes for said year (if any). <br />Tenant will pay all Taxes due and payable in the year in which the Commencement Date occurs. <br />The parties intend that, during the Term, Landlord has no obligation to pay Taxes, except as set <br />forth in this Article 5. Tenant shall accurately prepare for filing and file, unless Landlord is <br />required to file, in which case Tenant shall deliver to Landlord reasonably in advance of the <br />filing due date, all returns, reports, statements and other filings regarding Taxes for which Tenant <br />is required to pay hereunder. <br />5.3 Monthly Escrow for Taxes. If required by any Mortgagee pursuant to the terms <br />of a Mortgage encumbering the Premises, in lieu of Tenant paying the Taxes directly, Tenant <br />will pay monthly to Landlord, or to a designated third -party escrow agent, on or before the first <br />business day of each calendar month, one -twelfth (1/12th) of the amount of the Taxes payable by <br />Tenant for the calendar year in question, as reasonably estimated by Landlord. Landlord will <br />cause the amounts held in escrow pursuant to this Section to be paid to the appropriate taxing <br />authority not less than fifteen (15) days before any fine, penalty, interest or cost is incurred. To <br />the extent the amount in the escrow account is inadequate to pay all of the Taxes for which <br />Tenant is obligated hereunder, then within ten (10) days after written request from Landlord, <br />Tenant will pay such additional funds into the escrow account as may be necessary to pay the <br />next installment of Taxes in full. <br />D <br />
