Parascript has filed or caused to be filed on a timely basis all Tax Returns and all reports with respect to Taxes that are or were required to be filed by Parascript pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements, except where the failure to so file would not have a Parascript Material Adverse Effect.

Parascript has paid in full all required insurance premiums, subject only to normal retrospective adjustments in the ordinary course, with regard to the Parascript Employee Plans for all policy years or other applicable policy periods ending on or before the Closing Date.

(e)      Neither Parascript nor any ERISA Affiliate has any liability and no facts or circumstances exist that would give rise to any liability (either directly or as a result of indemnification), and the Contemplated Transactions will not result in any liability, (i) for any excise tax imposed by Section 4971 through Section 4980B, Section 4999, Section 5000 or any other Section of the Code, (ii) any penalty under Section 502(i), Section 502(l), Part 6 of Title I or any other provision of ERISA, (iii) any excise taxes, penalties, damages or equitable relief as a result of any prohibited transaction, breach of fiduciary duty or other violation under ERISA, the Code or any other applicable law.

No Parascript Employee Plan is presently under audit or examination (nor has notice been received of a potential audit or examination) by the IRS, the U.S. Department of Labor or any other Governmental Body, and no matters are pending with respect to a Parascript Employee Plan under the IRS Voluntary Correction Program, Audit Closing Agreement Program, or other similar programs.

(h)      Each Parascript Employee Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is either a prototype plan entitled to rely on the opinion letter issued by the IRS as to the qualified status of such Parascript Employee Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code to the extent provided in Revenue Procedure 2005-16 or has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS, and, to the Knowledge of Parascript, no circumstances exist that will result in a Parascript Material Adverse Effect as a result of such reliance or would result in revocation of any such favorable determination letter. Each trust created under any Parascript Employee Plan has been determined to be exempt from taxation under Section 501(a) of the Code, and Parascript is not aware of any circumstance that will or would result in a revocation of such exemption. With respect to each Parascript Employee Plan, to the Knowledge of Parascript, no event has occurred or condition exists that will or would give rise to a loss of any intended material tax consequence or to any material Tax under Section 511 of the Code.
