{{box|... {{isdaprov|other than}} a tax which {{isdaprov|would}} not be imposed {{isdaprov|but for}}...". }}
{{box|... ''other than'' a tax which ''would'' not be imposed ''but for''...". }}


Not only a triple negative, but since the expression {{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}} is itself often used in the negative  (ie ''a tax which is not an {{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}}'') - and even ''double'' negative (ie ''{{isdaprov|other than}} a tax which is not an {{isdaprov|Indemnifiable Tax}}'') in the body of the {{isdama}}. That makes it a '''''quintuple negative'''''. Quite a literary feat.
