“Unqualified Tax Opinion” means an unqualified opinion of a Tax Advisor on which eBay may rely to the effect that (i) a transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the Contribution and the Distribution or the Internal Contribution and the Internal Distribution, and (ii) will not adversely affect any of the conclusions set forth in any Tax Opinion regarding the Tax-Free Status of the Contribution and the Distribution or the Internal Contribution and the Internal Distribution; provided, that any tax opinion obtained in connection with a proposed acquisition of SpinCo Capital Stock entered into during the Restriction Period shall not qualify as an Unqualified Tax Opinion unless such tax opinion concludes that such proposed acquisition will not be treated as “part of a plan (or series of related transactions),” within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, that includes the Distribution or the Internal Distribution. Any such opinion must assume that the Contribution and Distribution and the Internal Contribution and the Internal Distribution would have qualified for Tax-Free Status if the transaction in question did not occur.

Section 2.05 Certain Transaction and Other Taxes.

(a) Transaction Taxes.

(i) All charges for goods or services in respect of the transfers occurring pursuant to the Transactions, and related transaction costs, shall be exclusive of any value added, goods and services, sales, use, consumption, excise, service, transfer, stamp, documentary, filing, recordation taxes or similar taxes (“Transaction Taxes”). Without limiting any provision of this Agreement, the Recipient shall be responsible for all Transaction Taxes imposed on or assessed with respect to the provision of goods or services by the Transferor. The Transferor shall issue proper invoices usable by the Recipient to recover (by way of credit or refund) Transaction Taxes in jurisdictions where they are recoverable. The Transferor and the Recipient shall cooperate to minimize any Transaction Taxes and in obtaining any refund, return, or rebate, or applying an exemption or zero-rating for goods or services giving rise to any Transaction Taxes, including by filing any exemption or other similar forms or providing valid tax identification numbers or other relevant registration numbers, certificates, or other documents. The Recipient and the Transferor shall cooperate regarding any requests for information, audits, or similar requests by any Tax Authority concerning Transaction Taxes payable with respect to the transfers occurring pursuant to the Transactions. If, within twelve (12) months following the date any Transaction Taxes are paid pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(i) by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group to any Taxing Authority, eBay or a member of the eBay Group in respect of the transfers occurring pursuant to the Transactions, the SpinCo Group is unable, using commercially reasonable efforts, to fully recover (by way of credit or refund) any such Transaction Taxes, SpinCo may seek reimbursement of such unrecoverable Transaction Taxes from eBay. SpinCo’s request for reimbursement of such nonrecoverable Transaction Taxes from eBay shall include documentation of the nonrecoverable Transaction Taxes and substantiation that a refund or credit is not permitted. eBay shall pay any amounts under this Section 2.05(a)(i) to SpinCo within ninety (90) days following the receipt of a substantiated request for reimbursement from SpinCo.

(ii) The Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold Tax required by applicable law to be withheld on payments made to the Transferor pursuant to the Transactions. To the extent any amounts are so withheld, the Recipient shall timely remit such deducted and withheld amounts to the relevant Tax Authority and promptly provide the

- 14 -

Transferor with evidence of such payment. The Transferor agrees to complete and provide to the Recipient or, if required, to the relevant Tax Authority, at least ten (10) days prior to the payment due date, such forms, certifications, or other documents as may be reasonably requested by the Recipient, in order to reduce or exempt the withholding of any Tax with respect to payments made to the Transferor when and where applicable by Law. The Recipient and the Transferor shall cooperate regarding any requests for information, audits, or similar requests by any Tax Authority concerning the withholding of any Tax payable with respect to the Transactions. If, within twelve (12) months following the date any Taxes are withheld by eBay or a member of the eBay Group in respect of payments or other transfers to SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group occurring pursuant to the Transactions, the SpinCo Group is not able to apply or credit any such withheld Taxes against Taxes otherwise payable by the SpinCo Group, SpinCo may seek reimbursement of the amount of such withheld Taxes that cannot be so applied or credited from eBay. SpinCo’s request for such reimbursement of such withheld Taxes from eBay shall include documentation of the Taxes withheld and substantiation that a credit or other relief is not permitted. eBay shall pay any amounts under this Section 2.05(a)(ii) to SpinCo within ninety (90) days following the receipt of a substantiated request for reimbursement from SpinCo. To the extent that, after receiving reimbursement of any such withheld Taxes from eBay pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(ii), the SpinCo Group obtains a credit or other relief with respect to all or a portion of such withheld Taxes, SpinCo shall repay such credited Taxes (or, to the extent any such other relief is obtained, an amount equal to the corresponding reduction in Taxes otherwise payable by the SpinCo Group) to eBay.

(iii) Any penalties or interest imposed on any Transaction Taxes described in Section 2.05(a)(i) or Tax described in Section 2.05(a)(ii) shall be the responsibility of the Recipient unless such penalties or interest are the result of an action or failure to act by the Transferor. The amounts for which the Recipient or Transferor is liable pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall include all reasonable accounting, legal and other professional fees, and court costs incurred in connection with the relevant Taxes.

(b) SpinCo Liability. SpinCo shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the eBay Group from and against any liability for:

Section 3. Proration of Taxes for Straddle Periods.

(a) General Method of Proration. In the case of any Straddle Period, Tax Items shall be apportioned between Pre-Deconsolidation Periods and Post-Deconsolidation Periods in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b) as reasonably interpreted and applied by the Companies. With respect to the eBay Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return for the taxable year that includes the Distribution, no election shall be made under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii). If the Deconsolidation Date is not an Accounting Cutoff Date, the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii) will be applied to ratably allocate the items (other than extraordinary items) for the month which includes the Deconsolidation Date.

(b) Transactions Treated as Extraordinary Item. In determining the apportionment of Tax Items between Pre-Deconsolidation Periods and Post-Deconsolidation Periods, any Tax Items relating to the Transactions shall be treated as extraordinary items described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(C) and shall (to the extent occurring on or prior to the Deconsolidation Date) be allocated to Pre-Deconsolidation Periods, and any Taxes related to such items shall be treated under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iv) as relating to such extraordinary item and shall (to the extent occurring on or prior to the Deconsolidation Date) be allocated to Pre-Deconsolidation Periods.

Section 4. Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns.

Section 4.02 Tax Accounting Practices.

(a) General Rule. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.02(b) and (c), with respect to any Tax Return that SpinCo has the obligation and right to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, for any Straddle Period (or any Tax Period beginning after the Deconsolidation Date to the extent items reported on such Tax Return could reasonably be expected to affect items reported on any Tax Return that eBay has the obligation or right to prepare and file for any Pre-Deconsolidation Period or any Straddle Period), such Tax Return shall be prepared in

- 16 -

accordance with past practices, accounting methods, elections or conventions (“Past Practices”) used with respect to the Tax Returns in question except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.02(b), eBay shall prepare any Tax Return which it has the obligation and right to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, under Section 4.01, in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by eBay.

(b) Reporting of Transactions. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or as a result of a Final Determination, (A) neither eBay nor SpinCo shall, and shall not permit or cause any member of its respective Group to, take any position that is either inconsistent with the treatment of each of (i) the Contribution and Distribution, taken together, or (ii) the Internal Contribution and the Internal Distribution, taken together, in each case, as having Tax-Free Status (or analogous status under state or local law) and, (B) SpinCo shall not, and shall not permit or cause any member of the SpinCo Group to, take any position with respect to an item of income, deduction, gain, loss, or credit on a Tax Return, or otherwise treat such item in a manner which is inconsistent with the manner such item is reported on a Tax Return required to be prepared or filed by eBay pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof (including, without limitation, the claiming of a deduction previously claimed on any such Tax Return).

(c) Reporting of Credit Receivables Purchases. Except to the extent otherwise required by (i) a change in applicable law on or before the one-year anniversary of the Distribution Date, (ii) applicable law after the one-year anniversary of the Distribution Date, or (iii) as a result of a Final Determination, neither SpinCo nor eBay shall, and neither shall permit or cause any member of its respective Group to, take any position with respect to the purchase, ownership, or disposition of credit receivables that is inconsistent with the Past Practices of eBay and its subsidiaries with respect to the Tax reporting thereof referred to in Sections 2.02(b), 2.03(b), and 2.04(b). In the event SpinCo determines that it is required to take such an inconsistent position, it shall promptly notify eBay in writing, and the parties shall cooperate to minimize the amount of Taxes for which eBay may be liable pursuant to Sections 2.02(b), 2.03(b), and 2.04(b).

Section 4.03 Consolidated or Combined Tax Returns. SpinCo will elect and join, and will cause its respective Affiliates to elect and join, in filing any eBay State Combined Income Tax Returns, eBay Foreign Combined Income Tax Returns and any other Joint Returns that eBay reasonably determines are required to be filed (or that eBay chooses to file) by the Companies or any of their Affiliates for Tax Periods ending on, before or after the Deconsolidation Date. With respect to any SpinCo Separate Returns relating to any Tax Period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo will elect and join, and will cause its respective Affiliates to elect and join, in filing consolidated, unitary, combined, or other similar joint Tax Returns, to the extent each entity is eligible to join in such Tax Returns, if eBay reasonably determines that the filing of such Tax Returns is consistent with past reporting practices, or, in the absence of applicable past practices, will result in the minimization of the net present value of the aggregate Tax to the entities eligible to join in such Tax Returns.

Section 4.04 Right to Review Tax Returns.

(a) General. The Responsible Company with respect to any material Tax Return shall make such Tax Return (or the relevant portions thereof), related workpapers and other supporting documents available for review by the other Company, to the extent (i) such Tax Return

- 17 -

relates to Taxes for which such other Company is or would reasonably be expected to be liable, (ii) such other Company is or would reasonably be expected to be liable in whole or in part for any additional Taxes owing as a result of adjustments to the amount of Taxes reported on such Tax Return, (iii) such Tax Return relates to Taxes for which the other party would reasonably be expected to have a claim for Tax Benefits under this Agreement, or (iv) reasonably necessary for the other party to confirm compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Responsible Company shall use reasonable efforts to make such Tax Return, workpapers and other supporting documents available for review as required under this paragraph promptly once such Tax Return is materially complete, but in any event no later than three (3) weeks in advance of the due date for filing of such Tax Return, such that the other party has a meaningful opportunity to review and comment on such Tax Return, and shall use reasonable efforts to have such Tax Return modified before filing, taking into account the person responsible for payment of the Tax (if any) reported on such Tax Return. The Companies shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreement arising out of the review of such Tax Return and, failing such resolution, any disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with the disagreement resolution provisions of Section 14 as promptly as practicable.

(b) Execution of Returns Prepared by Other Party. In the case of any Tax Return which is required to be prepared and filed by one Company under this Agreement and which is required by law to be signed by the other Company (or by its authorized representative), the Company which is legally required to sign such Tax Return shall not be required to sign such Tax Return under this Agreement unless there is at least a greater than 50% likelihood of prevailing on the merits for the Tax treatment of each material item reported on the Tax Return.

- 18 -

Section 4.05 SpinCo Carryback Items and Claims for Refund. SpinCo hereby agrees that, unless eBay consents in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (i) no Adjustment Request with respect to any Tax Return with respect to which eBay is the Responsible Company (including any Joint Return) or any other Tax Return reflecting Taxes for which eBay is responsible under Section 2 shall be filed, and (ii) any available elections to waive the right to claim in any Pre-Deconsolidation Period with respect to any Tax Return with respect to which eBay is the Responsible Company (including any Joint Return) or any Tax Return reflecting both Taxes for which eBay is responsible under Section 2 and Taxes for which SpinCo is responsible under Section 2 any SpinCo Carryback Item arising in a Post-Deconsolidation Period shall be made, and no affirmative election shall be made to claim any such SpinCo Carryback Item; provided, however, that the parties agree that any such Adjustment Request shall be made with respect to any SpinCo Carryback Item related to U.S. federal or State Income Taxes, upon the reasonable request of SpinCo, if such SpinCo Carryback Item is necessary to prevent the loss of the federal and/or State Income Tax Benefit of such SpinCo Carryback Item (including, but not limited to, an Adjustment Request with respect to a SpinCo Carryback Item of a federal or State capital loss arising in a Post-Deconsolidation Period to a Pre-Deconsolidation Period) and such Adjustment Request, based on eBay’s sole, reasonable determination, will cause no Tax detriment to eBay, the eBay Group or any member of the eBay Group. Any Adjustment Request which eBay consents to make under this Section 4.05 shall be prepared and filed by the Responsible Company for the Tax Return to be adjusted; provided, however, that, prior to the filing of any such Adjustment Request, the other Party shall have the right to review such Adjustment Request together with any related workpapers and other supporting documentation.

(a) If the eBay Affiliated Group has a Tax Attribute, the portion, if any, of such Tax Attribute apportioned to SpinCo or the members of the SpinCo Group and treated as a carryover to the first Post-Deconsolidation Period of SpinCo (or such member) shall be determined by eBay in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1502-21, 1.1502-21T, 1.1502-22, 1.1502-79 and, if applicable, 1.1502-79A.

(b) No Tax Attribute with respect to consolidated Federal Income Tax of the eBay Affiliated Group, other than those described in Section 4.06(a), and no Tax Attribute with respect to consolidated, combined or unitary state, local, or foreign Income Tax, in each case, arising in respect of a Joint Return shall be apportioned to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group, except as eBay (or such member of the eBay Group as eBay shall designate) determines is otherwise required under applicable law. SpinCo and eBay agree that the California R&D credit shall not be considered a Tax Attribute to which this Section 4.06 applies.

(c) eBay (or its designee) shall determine the portion, if any, of any Tax Attribute which must (absent a Final Determination to the contrary) be apportioned to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group in accordance with this Section 4.06 and applicable law and the amount of tax basis, earnings and profits (including, for the avoidance of doubt, PTI), and “tax pools” to be apportioned to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group in accordance with this Section 4.06 and applicable law, and shall provide written supporting documentation of the calculation thereof to SpinCo as soon as reasonably practicable after the information necessary to make such calculation becomes available to eBay. For the absence of doubt, eBay shall not be liable to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group for any failure of any determination

- 19 -

under this Section 4.06 to be accurate under applicable law. The parties intend that, to the extent such PTI is subject to allocation under Treasury Regulations Section 1.312-10 and related rules and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any PTI attributable to income inclusions with respect to which eBay is responsible for Federal Income Taxes pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or (c) shall be allocated to eBay or a member of the eBay Group.

(d) The written documentation delivered by eBay pursuant to Section 4.06(c) shall be binding on SpinCo and each member of the SpinCo Group and shall not be subject to dispute resolution. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or pursuant to a Final Determination, SpinCo shall not take any position (whether on a Tax Return or otherwise) that is inconsistent with the information contained in such written documentation.

In the event that eBay or SpinCo disagrees with any such calculation described in this Section 6.01(c), eBay or SpinCo shall so notify the other Company in writing within 90 days of receiving the written calculation set forth above in this Section 6.01(c). eBay and SpinCo shall endeavor in good faith to resolve such disagreement, and, failing that, the amount payable under this Section 6 shall be determined in accordance with the disagreement resolution provisions of Section 14 as promptly as practicable.

(d) SpinCo shall be entitled to any refund that is attributable to, and would not have arisen but for, a SpinCo Carryback Item pursuant to the proviso set forth in Section 4.05; provided, however, SpinCo shall indemnify and hold the members of the eBay Group harmless from and against any and all collateral Tax consequences resulting from or caused by any such Carryback, including (but not limited to) the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of Tax Attributes generated by a member of the eBay Group or an Affiliate thereof if (x) such Tax Attributes expire unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such Carryback, or (y) the use of such Tax Attributes is postponed to a later Tax Period than the Tax Period in which such Tax Attributes would have been utilized but for such Carryback. Any such payment of such refund made by eBay to SpinCo pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) shall be recalculated in light of any Final Determination (or any other facts that may arise or come to light after such payment is made, such as a carryback of an eBay Group Tax Attribute to a Tax Period in respect of which such refund is received) that would affect the amount to which SpinCo is entitled, and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made by SpinCo to eBay such that the aggregate amount paid pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) equals such recalculated amount (with interest computed at the Prime Rate).

After the Retention Date, each Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the other Company. If, prior to the Retention Date, a Company reasonably determines that any Tax Records which it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this Section 9 are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Company agrees, then such first Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior notice to the other Company.

or proceeding or other Tax Contest for which it may be entitled to indemnification by the other Company hereunder. Such notice shall include copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail. The failure of one Company to notify the other of such communication in accordance with the immediately preceding sentences shall not relieve such other Company of any liability or obligation to pay such Tax or make indemnification payments under this Agreement, except to the extent that the failure timely to provide such notification actually prejudices the ability of such other Company to contest such Tax liability or increases the amount of such Tax liability.

(e) eBay Rights.

(g) Power of Attorney.

(i) Each member of the SpinCo Group shall execute and deliver to eBay (or such member of the eBay Group as eBay shall designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by eBay (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest (as to which eBay is the Controlling Party) described in this Section 10.

(ii) Each member of the eBay Group shall execute and deliver to SpinCo (or such member of the SpinCo Group as SpinCo shall designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by SpinCo (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest (as to which SpinCo is the Controlling Party) described in this Section 10.

Section 11. Effective Date; Termination of Prior Intercompany Tax Allocation Agreements. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, (i) all prior intercompany Tax allocation agreements or arrangements solely between or among eBay and/or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and SpinCo and/or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Allocation Agreement, by and among eBay and certain of its Subsidiaries, dated as of January 1, 2003), shall be terminated, and (ii) amounts due under such agreements as of the date on which the Effective Time occurs shall be settled. Upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to eBay or any of its Subsidiaries or by or to SpinCo or any of its Subsidiaries, with respect to such agreements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements between the Companies and their Affiliates shall cease at such time. Any payments pursuant to such agreements shall be disregarded for purposes of computing amounts due under this Agreement; provided that to the extent appropriate, payments made pursuant to such agreements shall be credited to SpinCo or eBay, respectively, in computing their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement, in the event that such payments relate to a Tax liability that is the subject matter of this Agreement for a Tax Period that is the subject matter of this Agreement.

Section 12. Survival of Obligations. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time.

Section 13. Treatment of Payments; Tax Gross Up.

Section 13.01 Treatment of Tax Indemnity and Tax Benefit Payments. In the absence of any change in Tax treatment under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, for all Income Tax

- 34 -

purposes, the Companies agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (i) any indemnity payment required by this Agreement or by the Separation and Distribution Agreement as either a contribution by eBay to SpinCo or a distribution by SpinCo to eBay, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Distribution; and (ii) any payment of interest or State Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Company entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment.

Section 13.02 Tax Gross Up. If notwithstanding the manner in which payments described in Section 13.01(i) were reported, there is an adjustment to the Tax liability of a Company as a result of its receipt of a payment pursuant to this Agreement or the Separation and Distribution Agreement, such payment shall be appropriately adjusted so that the amount of such payment, reduced by the amount of all Income Taxes payable with respect to the receipt thereof (but taking into account all correlative Tax Benefits resulting from the payment of such Income Taxes), shall equal the amount of the payment which the Company receiving such payment would otherwise be entitled to receive.

Section 13.03 Interest. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent one Company (“Indemnitor”) makes a payment of interest to another Company (“Indemnitee”) under this Agreement with respect to the period from the date that the Indemnitee made a payment of Tax to a Tax Authority to the date that the Indemnitor reimbursed the Indemnitee for such Tax payment, the interest payment shall be treated as interest expense to the Indemnitor (deductible to the extent provided by law) and as interest income by the Indemnitee (includible in income to the extent provided by law). The amount of the payment shall not be adjusted to take into account any associated Tax Benefit to the Indemnitor or increase in Tax to the Indemnitee.

Section 14. Disagreements. The Companies desire that collaboration will continue between them. Accordingly, they will try, and they will cause their respective Group members to try, to resolve in good faith all disagreements regarding their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute or disagreement (other than a High-Level Dispute) (a “Tax Advisor Dispute”) between any member of the eBay Group and any member of the SpinCo Group as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the performance of obligations hereunder, the Tax departments of the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute. If such good faith negotiations do not resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute, then the matter, upon written request of either Company, will be referred for resolution to the Escalation Committee, which will make a good faith effort to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. If the Escalation Committee does not agree to a resolution of a Tax Advisor Dispute within thirty (30) days after the reference of the Tax Advisor Dispute to it, then the matter will be referred to a Tax Advisor acceptable to each of the Companies. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third-party appraiser, accounting firm or consultant that the Tax Advisor deems necessary to assist it in resolving such disagreement. The Tax Advisor shall furnish written notice to the Companies of its resolution of any such Tax Advisor Dispute as soon as practical, but in any event no later than 45 days after its acceptance of the matter for resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor will be conclusive and binding on the Companies. Following receipt

- 35 -

of the Tax Advisor’s written notice to the Companies of its resolution of the Tax Advisor Dispute, the Companies shall each take or cause to be taken any action necessary to implement such resolution of the Tax Advisor. In accordance with Section 16, each Company shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its representatives) incurred in connection with the referral of the matter to the Tax Advisor. All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor in connection with such referral shall be shared equally by the Companies. Any High-Level Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. Nothing in this Section 14 will prevent either Company from seeking injunctive relief if any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute through the Escalation Committee and the Tax Advisor (or any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve any High-Level Dispute through the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement) could result in serious and irreparable injury to either Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, eBay and SpinCo are the only members of their respective Group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of eBay and SpinCo will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such party as provided in this Section 14.

Section 15. Late Payments. Any amount owed by one party to another party under this Agreement which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the Prime Rate plus two percent, compounded semiannually, from the due date of the payment to the date paid. To the extent interest required to be paid under this Section 15 duplicates interest required to be paid under any other provision of this Agreement, interest shall be computed at the higher of the interest rate provided under this Section 15 or the interest rate provided under such other provision.

Section 16. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 17. General Provisions.

All notices, requests, claims, demands or other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing, together with a copy by electronic mail (which shall not constitute notice), and shall be given or made (and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made upon acknowledgment of receipt) by delivery in person, by overnight courier service, or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) to the respective Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified in a notice given in accordance with this Section 17.01):

Section 17.03 Waiver. Waiver by a Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party.

Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

Section 17.05 Authority. eBay represents on behalf of itself and each other member of the eBay Group, and SpinCo represents on behalf of itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group, as follows: (i) each such Person has the requisite corporate or other power and authority and has taken all corporate or other action necessary in order to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; and (ii) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of it enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof.

Unless expressly required in this Agreement, a party shall not be required to exhaust all remedies available under other agreements or at law or equity before recovering under the remedies provided in this Agreement.

Section 17.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party. Each Party acknowledges that it and each other Party is executing certain of the Ancillary Agreements by facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature, and that delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement (whether executed by manual, stamp or mechanical signature) by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of such executed counterpart of this Agreement. Each Party expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature (regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other Party at any time, it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier.
