execute and deliver such documents and take such other actions as Accelr8 may
reasonably request, for the purpose of (x) obtaining an exemption from the tax
withholding requirements of any foreign country, (y) obtaining a refund of any
taxes actually withheld by Schott and paid to a foreign country pursuant to tax
withholding requirements, and (z) otherwise seeking to lawfully mitigate the
amount of taxes required to be withheld from any payments due to Accelr8
hereunder pursuant to applicable foreign tax law.

if any, in accordance with this Article 6. The written report shall be in the
form mutually agreed upon by the Parties, but will include the information

the inspection and pay the amount of the underpayment including any interest as
required by this Agreement.
