Template:ISDA Master Agreement 1992 2(d)(i)

Gross-Up. All payments under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or
withholding for or on account of any Tax unless such deduction or withholding is required by any
applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in
effect. If a party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party (“X”) will:—

(1) promptly notify the other party (“Y”) of such requirement;

(2) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld
(including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount
paid by X to Y under this Section 2(d)) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such
deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed
against Y;

(3) promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or other documentation
reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment to such authorities; and

(4) if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in addition to the payment to which Y is
otherwise entitled under this Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that
the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed
against X or Y) will equal the full amount Y would have received had no such deduction or
withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to
Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for:—

(A) the failure by Y to comply with or perform any agreement contained in
Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d); or

(B) the failure of a representation made by Y pursuant to Section 3(f) to be accurate and
true unless such failure would not have occurred but for (I) any action taken by a taxing
authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, on or after the date on which a
Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with
respect to a party to this Agreement) or (II) a Change in Tax Law.
