Seller shall indemnify Purchaser and its parent, Affiliates, subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, stockholders, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns (the "Purchaser Indemnified Persons") in respect of, and hold each Purchaser Indemnified Person harmless, on an after-Tax basis, against (x) Losses resulting from, relating to, or constituting a breach of any representation contained in SECTION 3.25, hereof and (y) the failure to perform any covenant or agreement set forth in this ARTICLE 5.

Thus, it is the intention of the parties that the Purchaser Indemnified Persons be held harmless with respect to the liability that give rise to the right to the indemnification payment on an after-Tax basis. (b) PURCHASER'S INDEMNIFICATION. Purchaser shall indemnify Seller and its parent, Affiliates, subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, stockholders, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns (the "Seller Indemnified Persons") in respect of, and hold each Seller Indemnified Person harmless, on an after-Tax basis, against the failure to perform any covenant or agreement set forth in this ARTICLE 5.

Purchaser agrees to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to Sunrise relating to any Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date and any Tax periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof. 5.6 TAX CONTEST. Purchaser and Seller shall notify the other party in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of any pending or threatened Tax examination, audit or other administrative or judicial proceeding (a "Tax Contest") that could reasonably be expected to result in an indemnification obligation by Seller of Purchaser under this ARTICLE 5.

Where a party withholds its consent to any final settlement, that party may continue or initiate further proceedings, at its own expense, and the liability of the party that wished to settle (as between the consenting and the nonconsenting party) shall not exceed the liability that would have resulted from the proposed final settlement (including interest, additions to tax, and penalties that have accrued at that time), and the non-consenting party shall indemnify the consenting party for such Taxes. (c) DISPUTES. In the event that a dispute arises between Seller and Purchaser as to the amount of Taxes or indemnification or any other matter relating to Taxes attributable to Sunrise, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute, and any agreed upon amount shall be paid to the appropriate party. If such dispute is not resolved 30 days thereafter, the parties shall submit the dispute to a mutually agreeable independent accounting firm for resolution, which resolution shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the fees and expenses of such independent accounting firm in resolving the dispute shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.

(c) Any Tax return to be prepared and filed by Purchaser or Seller or the Common Parent as provided in this SECTION 5.8 shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the last previous similar Tax return. Purchaser shall consult with Seller and the Common Parent concerning each such Tax return to be prepared and filed by Purchaser for periods after the Closing Date and report all items with respect to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date in accordance with the instructions of Seller to the extent such reporting is allowable without in Purchaser's determination significant risk of the imposition of penalties or additions to Taxes as determined by Purchaser in consultation with its tax advisors. Purchaser shall cause Sunrise to provide Seller with a copy of each such proposed tax return (and such additional information regarding such tax return as may reasonably be requested by Seller) at least forty-five (45) days prior to the filing of such tax return, except that (i) in the case of a tax return relating to a monthly taxable period, the copy shall be provided to Seller at least ten (10) days prior to the filing of such tax return and (ii) in the case of a tax return due within ninety (90) days 26 following the Closing Date, the copy shall be provided to Seller in such shorter period of time prior to filing as Purchaser shall reasonably determine to be practicable.
