(b) Confidentiality.

i. From and after the Closing, Upexi shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, hold, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause its respective Representatives to hold, in confidence any and all information, whether written or oral, concerning E-Core and the E-Core Business, and in any event the same efforts and methods used to safeguard their own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable efforts and methods, except to the extent Upexi can show that such information (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of Upexi, any of its Affiliates or its Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired Upexi, any of its Affiliates or their respective Representatives from and after the Closing from sources which are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation.

(c) Certain Tax Matters.

(i)

For purposes of this Agreement, the portion of Tax, with respect to the income, property or operations of E-Core that are attributable to any Tax period that begins on or before the Effective Date and ends after the Effective Date (a “Straddle Period”) will be apportioned between the period of the Straddle Period that extends before the Effective Date through the end of the Effective Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the period of the Straddle Period that extends from the day after the Effective Date to the end of the Straddle Period (the “Post-Closing Straddle Period”).

(ii)

The portion of such Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period will (A) in the case of any Taxes other than sales or use Taxes, value-added Taxes, employment Taxes, withholding Taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period, and (B) in the case of any sales or use Taxes, value-added Taxes, employment Taxes, withholding Taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on and included the Effective Date. The portion of Tax attributable to a Post-Closing Straddle Period will be calculated in a corresponding manner. To the extent that any Tax for a Straddle Period is based on the greater of a Tax on net income, on the one hand, and a Tax measured by net worth or some other basis not otherwise measured by income, on the other hand, the portion of such Tax related to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and the Post-Closing Straddle Period will be determined based on the foregoing and based on the manner in which the actual Tax liability for the entire Straddle Period is determined. In the case of a Tax that is (y) paid for the privilege of doing business during a period (a “Privilege Period”) and (z) computed based on business activity occurring during an accounting period ending prior to such Privilege Period, any reference to a “tax period,” or a “taxable period” will mean such accounting period and not such Privilege Period.

18

(iii)	Upexi shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns of E-Core for all taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date. E-Core Newco will prepare, or cause to be prepared, and timely file (with applicable extensions), or cause to be timely filed (with applicable extensions), all Tax Returns of E-Core required to be filed after the Effective Date.
(v)	In connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, audit examinations and any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to the Tax liabilities imposed on Upexi, on the one hand, and E-Core Newco, on the other hand, will cooperate on a commercially reasonable basis with each other, including, without limitation, the furnishing or making available during normal business hours of records, personnel (as reasonably required), books of account, powers of attorney or other materials necessary or helpful for the preparation of such Tax Returns, the conduct of audit examinations or the defense of claims by taxing authorities as to the imposition of Taxes.
(vi)	The Parties agree, upon request from another Party, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any governmental entity or any other person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).
(viii)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, E-Core Newco has the right to represent the interests of E-Core before the relevant governmental entity with respect to any inquiry, assessment, proceeding or other similar event relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Tax Matter”) and have the right to control the defense, compromise or other resolution of any such Tax Matter, including responding to inquiries, filing Tax Returns and contesting, defending against and resolving any assessment for additional Taxes or notice of Tax deficiency or other adjustment of Taxes of, or relating to, such Tax Matter, and E-Core Newco will have such right with respect to a Straddle Period.
(ix)	If a Tax Matter for a Pre-Closing Tax Period could impact Upexi from and after the Effective Date, then Upexi Newco will have the right to participate in the defense of such Tax Matter and E-core Newco will not enter into any settlement or other compromise any such Tax Matter to the extent it would adversely affect Upexi from and after the Effective Date without the prior written consent of Upexi, which consent will not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed.
(x)	Upexi will be entitled to any Tax refunds or direct credits, including any amounts credited against Tax to which E-Core shall become entitled (including the employee retention credit under Section 2301 of the CARES Act,, as amended), including interest paid therewith, in respect of Taxes paid by Upexi with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period that begins after the Transaction Date; (B) no amount will be required to be paid to Upexi to the extent it relates to a carryback of a Tax attribute from a period (or portion thereof) following the Closing Date.
