There is not in effect any waiver by Company or any of its Subsidiaries of any statute of limitations with respect to any Taxes or agreement to any extension of time for filing any Return which

18


 
has not been filed, and Company has not consented to extend to a date later than the Agreement Date the period in which any Tax may be assessed or collected by any Governmental Authority.
