Section 2.05 Certain Transaction and Other Taxes. 

(a) Transaction Taxes. 

(i) All charges for goods or services in respect of the transfers occurring pursuant to the Transactions shall be
exclusive of any value added, goods and services, sales, use, consumption, excise, service, transfer, stamp, documentary, filing, recordation taxes or similar taxes (“Transaction Taxes”). Without limiting any provision of this
Agreement, the Recipient shall be responsible for all Transaction Taxes imposed on or assessed with respect to the provision of goods or services by the Transferor. The Transferor shall issue proper invoices usable by the Recipient to recover (by
way of credit or refund) Transaction Taxes in jurisdictions where they are recoverable. The Transferor and the Recipient shall cooperate to minimize any Transaction Taxes and in obtaining any refund, return, or rebate, or applying an exemption or
zero-rating for goods or services giving rise to any Transaction Taxes, including by filing any exemption or other similar forms or providing valid tax identification numbers or other relevant registration numbers, certificates, or other documents.
The Recipient and the Transferor shall cooperate regarding any requests for information, audits, or similar requests by any Tax Authority concerning Transaction Taxes payable with respect to the transfers occurring pursuant to the Transactions. If,
within twelve (12) months following the date any Transaction Taxes are paid pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(i) by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group to eBay or a member of the eBay Group in respect of the transfers occurring pursuant
to the Transactions, the SpinCo Group is unable, using commercially reasonable efforts, to fully recover (by way of credit or refund) any such Transaction Taxes, SpinCo may seek reimbursement of such unrecoverable Transaction Taxes from eBay.
SpinCo’s request for reimbursement of such nonrecoverable Transaction Taxes from eBay shall include documentation of the nonrecoverable Transaction Taxes and substantiation that a refund or credit is not permitted. eBay shall pay any amounts
under this Section 2.05(a)(i) to SpinCo within ninety (90) days following the receipt of a substantiated request for reimbursement from SpinCo. To the extent that, after receiving reimbursement of any such nonrecoverable Transaction Taxes
from eBay pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(i), a member of the SpinCo Group recovers (by way of credit or refund) all or a portion of such Transaction Taxes, SpinCo shall repay such recovered Transaction Taxes to eBay. 

(ii) The Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold Tax required by applicable law to be withheld on payments
made to the Transferor pursuant to the Transactions. To the extent any amounts are so withheld, the Recipient shall timely remit such deducted and withheld amounts to the relevant Tax Authority and promptly provide the Transferor with evidence of
such payment. The Transferor agrees to complete and provide to the Recipient or, if required, to the relevant Tax Authority, at least ten (10) days prior to the payment due date, such forms, certifications, or other documents as may be


  
 - 14 - 








 
reasonably requested by the Recipient, in order to reduce or exempt the withholding of any Tax with respect to payments made to the Transferor when and where applicable by Law. The Recipient and
the Transferor shall cooperate regarding any requests for information, audits, or similar requests by any Tax Authority concerning the withholding of any Tax payable with respect to the Transactions. If, within twelve (12) months following the
date any Taxes are withheld by eBay or a member of the eBay Group in respect of payments or other transfers to SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group occurring pursuant to the Transactions, the SpinCo Group is not able to apply or credit any such
withheld Taxes against Taxes otherwise payable by the SpinCo Group, SpinCo may seek reimbursement of the amount of such withheld Taxes that cannot be so applied or credited from eBay. SpinCo’s request for such reimbursement of such withheld
Taxes from eBay shall include documentation of the Taxes withheld and substantiation that a credit or other relief is not permitted. eBay shall pay any amounts under this Section 2.05(a)(ii) to SpinCo within ninety (90) days following the
receipt of a substantiated request for reimbursement from SpinCo. To the extent that, after receiving reimbursement of any such withheld Taxes from eBay pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)(ii), the SpinCo Group obtains a credit or other relief
with respect to all or a portion of such withheld Taxes, SpinCo shall repay such credited Taxes (or, to the extent any such other relief is obtained, an amount equal to the corresponding reduction in Taxes otherwise payable by the SpinCo Group) to
eBay. 
 (iii) Any penalties or interest imposed on any Transaction Taxes described in Section 2.05(a)(i) or Tax
described in Section 2.05(a)(ii) shall be the responsibility of the Recipient unless such penalties or interest are the result of an action or failure to act by the Transferor. The amounts for which the Recipient or Transferor is liable
pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall include all reasonable accounting, legal and other professional fees, and court costs incurred in connection with the relevant Taxes. 

(b) SpinCo Liability. SpinCo shall be liable for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the eBay Group from and against any liability
for: 
 (i) any Tax resulting from a breach by SpinCo of any representation or covenant in this Agreement, the
Separation and Distribution Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; and 
 (ii) any Tax-Related Losses for which SpinCo

 - 15 - 








 The amounts for which eBay is liable pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i) shall include all accounting, legal and
other professional fees, and court costs incurred in connection with the relevant Taxes. 
 Section 3. Proration of Taxes for
Straddle Periods. 
 (a) General Method of Proration. In the case of any Straddle Period, Tax Items shall be apportioned between
Pre-Deconsolidation Periods and Post-Deconsolidation Periods in accordance with the principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b) as reasonably interpreted and applied by the Companies. With respect to the eBay Federal Consolidated
Income Tax Return for the taxable year that includes the Distribution, no election shall be made under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii). If the Deconsolidation Date is not an Accounting Cutoff Date, the provisions of Treasury
Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii) will be applied to ratably allocate the items (other than extraordinary items) for the month which includes the Deconsolidation Date.  

(b) Transactions Treated as Extraordinary Item. In determining the apportionment of Tax Items between Pre-Deconsolidation Periods and
Post-Deconsolidation Periods, any Tax Items relating to the Transactions shall be treated as extraordinary items described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(C) and shall (to the extent occurring on or prior to the
Deconsolidation Date) be allocated to Pre-Deconsolidation Periods, and any Taxes related to such items shall be treated under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iv) as relating to such extraordinary item and shall (to the extent
occurring on or prior to the Deconsolidation Date) be allocated to Pre-Deconsolidation Periods. 
 Section 4. Preparation and
Filing of Tax Returns. 
 Section 4.01 General. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, Tax Returns shall be
prepared and filed when due (taking into account extensions) by the Person obligated to file such Tax Returns under the Code or applicable Tax Law. The Companies shall provide, and shall cause their Affiliates to provide, assistance and cooperation
to one another in accordance with Section 8 with respect to the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, including by providing information required to be provided pursuant to Section 8. 

Section 4.02 Tax Accounting Practices. 

(a) General Rule. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.02(b) and (c), with respect to any Tax Return that
SpinCo has the obligation and right to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, for any Straddle Period (or any Tax Period beginning after the Deconsolidation Date to the extent items reported on such Tax Return could reasonably be
expected to affect items reported on any Tax Return that eBay has the obligation or right to prepare and file for any Pre-Deconsolidation Period or any Straddle Period), such Tax Return shall be prepared in accordance with past practices, accounting
methods, elections or conventions (“Past Practices”) used with respect to the Tax Returns in question except to the extent otherwise required by  

  
 - 16 - 








 
applicable law. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.02(b), eBay shall prepare any Tax Return which it has the obligation and right to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and
filed, under Section 4.01, in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by eBay. 
 (b) Reporting of
Transactions. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or as a result of a Final Determination, (A) neither eBay nor SpinCo shall, and shall not permit or cause any member of its respective Group to, take any position that
is either inconsistent with the treatment of each of (i) the Contribution and Distribution, taken together, or (ii) the Internal Contribution and the Internal Distribution, taken together, in each case, as having Tax-Free Status (or
analogous status under state or local law) and, (B) SpinCo shall not, and shall not permit or cause any member of the SpinCo Group to, take any position with respect to an item of income, deduction, gain, loss, or credit on a Tax Return, or
otherwise treat such item in a manner which is inconsistent with the manner such item is reported on a Tax Return required to be prepared or filed by eBay pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof (including, without limitation, the claiming of a
deduction previously claimed on any such Tax Return).  
 (c) Reporting of Credit Receivables Purchases. Except to the extent
otherwise required by (i) a change in applicable law on or before the one-year anniversary of the Distribution Date, (ii) applicable law after the one-year anniversary of the Distribution Date, or (iii) as a result of a Final
Determination, neither SpinCo nor eBay shall, and neither shall permit or cause any member of its respective Group to, take any position with respect to the purchase, ownership, or disposition of credit receivables that is inconsistent with the Past
Practices of eBay and its subsidiaries with respect to the Tax reporting thereof referred to in Sections 2.02(b), 2.03(b), and 2.04(b). In the event SpinCo determines that it is required to take such an inconsistent position, it shall promptly
notify eBay in writing, and the parties shall cooperate to minimize the amount of Taxes for which eBay may be liable pursuant to Sections 2.02(b), 2.03(b), and 2.04(b).  

Section 4.03 Consolidated or Combined Tax Returns. SpinCo will elect and join, and will cause its respective Affiliates to elect
and join, in filing any eBay State Combined Income Tax Returns, eBay Foreign Combined Income Tax Returns and any other Joint Returns that eBay reasonably determines are required to be filed (or that eBay chooses to file) by the Companies or any of
their Affiliates for Tax Periods ending on, before or after the Deconsolidation Date. With respect to any SpinCo Separate Returns relating to any Tax Period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Distribution Date, SpinCo will elect and
join, and will cause its respective Affiliates to elect and join, in filing consolidated, unitary, combined, or other similar joint Tax Returns, to the extent each entity is eligible to join in such Tax Returns, if eBay reasonably determines that
the filing of such Tax Returns is consistent with past reporting practices, or, in the absence of applicable past practices, will result in the minimization of the net present value of the aggregate Tax to the entities eligible to join in such Tax
Returns.  
 Section 4.04 Right to Review Tax Returns. 

(a) General. The Responsible Company with respect to any material Tax Return shall make such Tax Return (or the relevant portions
thereof), related workpapers and other supporting documents available for review by the other Company, to the extent (i) such Tax Return relates to Taxes for which such other Company is or would reasonably be expected to be liable,
(ii) such Tax Return relates to Taxes and such other Company is or would reasonably be expected to be liable in whole or in part for any additional Taxes owing as a result of adjustments to the 


  
 - 17 - 








 
amount of such Taxes reported on such Tax Return, (iii) such Tax Return relates to Taxes for which the other party would reasonably be expected to have a claim for Tax Benefits under this
Agreement, or (iv) reasonably necessary for the other party to confirm compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Responsible Company shall use reasonable efforts to make such Tax Return, workpapers and other supporting documents
available for review as required under this paragraph promptly once such Tax Return is materially complete, but in any event no later than three (3) weeks in advance of the due date for filing of such Tax Return, such that the other party has a
meaningful opportunity to review and comment on such Tax Return, and shall use reasonable efforts to have such Tax Return modified before filing, taking into account the person responsible for payment of the Tax (if any) reported on such Tax Return.
The Companies shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreement arising out of the review of such Tax Return and, failing such resolution, any disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with the disagreement resolution provisions of
Section 14 as promptly as practicable. 
 (b) Execution of Returns Prepared by Other Party. In the case of any Tax Return which
is required to be prepared and filed by one Company under this Agreement and which is required by law to be signed by the other Company (or by its authorized representative), the Company which is legally required to sign such Tax Return shall not be
required to sign such Tax Return under this Agreement unless there is at least a greater than 50% likelihood of prevailing on the merits for the Tax treatment of each material item reported on the Tax Return. 

Section 4.05 SpinCo Carrybacks Items and Claims for Refund. SpinCo hereby agrees that, unless eBay consents in writing (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (i) no Adjustment Request with respect to any Tax Return with respect to which eBay is the Responsible Party (including any Joint Return) or any other Tax Return reflecting Taxes for which eBay is
responsible under Section 2 shall be filed, and (ii) any available elections to waive the right to claim in any Pre-Deconsolidation Period with respect to any Tax Return with respect to which eBay is the Responsible Party (including any
Joint Return) or any Tax Return reflecting both Taxes for which eBay is responsible under Section 2 and Taxes for which SpinCo is responsible under Section 2 any SpinCo Carryback Item arising in a Post-Deconsolidation Period shall be made,
and no affirmative election shall be made to claim any such SpinCo Carryback Item; provided, however, that the parties agree that any such Adjustment Request shall be made with respect to any SpinCo Carryback Item related to U.S. federal or
State Income Taxes, upon the reasonable request of SpinCo, if such SpinCo Carryback Item is necessary to prevent the loss of the federal and/or State Income Tax Benefit of such SpinCo Carryback Item (including, but not limited to, an Adjustment
Request with respect to a SpinCo Carryback Item of a federal or State capital loss arising in a Post-Deconsolidation Period to a Pre-Deconsolidation Period) and such Adjustment Request, based on eBay’s sole, reasonable determination, will cause
no Tax detriment to eBay, the eBay Group or any member of the eBay Group. Any Adjustment Request which eBay consents to make under this Section 4.05 shall be prepared and filed by the Responsible Company for the Tax Return to be adjusted;
provided, however, that, prior to the filing of any such Adjustment Request, the other Party shall have the right to review such Adjustment Request together with any related workpapers and other supporting documentation. 

Section 4.06 Apportionment of Earnings and Profits and Tax Attributes.  

(a) If the eBay Affiliated Group has a Tax Attribute, the portion, if any, of such Tax Attribute apportioned to SpinCo or the members
of the SpinCo Group and treated as a carryover  

  
 - 18 - 








 
to the first Post-Deconsolidation Period of SpinCo (or such member) shall be determined by eBay in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1502-21, 1.1502-21T, 1.1502-22, 1.1502-79 and,
if applicable, 1.1502-79A. 
 (b) No Tax Attribute with respect to consolidated Federal Income Tax of the eBay Affiliated Group,
other than those described in Section 4.06(a), and no Tax Attribute with respect to consolidated, combined or unitary state, local, or foreign Income Tax, in each case, arising in respect of a Joint Return shall be apportioned to SpinCo or any
member of the SpinCo Group, except as eBay (or such member of the eBay Group as eBay shall designate) determines is otherwise required under applicable law.  

(c) eBay (or its designee) shall determine the portion, if any, of any Tax Attribute which must (absent a Final Determination to the
contrary) be apportioned to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group in accordance with this Section 4.06 and applicable law and the amount of tax basis, earnings and profits (including, for the avoidance of doubt, PTI), and “tax
pools” to be apportioned to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group in accordance with this Section 4.06 and applicable law, and shall provide written supporting documentation of the calculation thereof to SpinCo as soon as reasonably
practicable after the information necessary to make such calculation becomes available to eBay. For the absence of doubt, eBay shall not be liable to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group for any failure of any determination under this
Section 4.06 to be accurate under applicable law. The parties intend that, to the extent such PTI is subject to allocation under Treasury Regulations Section 1.312-10 and related rules and to the extent permitted by applicable law, any PTI
attributable to income inclusions with respect to which eBay is responsible for Federal Income Taxes pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or (c) shall be allocated to eBay or a member of the eBay Group.  

(d) The written documentation delivered by eBay pursuant to Section 4.06(c) shall be binding on SpinCo and each member of the
SpinCo Group and shall not be subject to dispute resolution. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or pursuant to a Final Determination, SpinCo shall not take any position (whether on a Tax Return or otherwise) that is
inconsistent with the information contained in such written documentation. 
 Section 5. Tax Payments. 

Section 5.01 Payment of Taxes. In the case of any Tax Return reflecting both Taxes for which eBay is responsible under
Section 2 and Taxes for which SpinCo is responsible under Section 2: 
 (a) Computation and Payment of Tax Due. With
respect to any such Tax Return, the Responsible Company shall pay any Tax required to be paid to the applicable Tax Authority on or before the relevant Payment Date (and provide notice and proof of payment to the other Company). 

(b) Computation and Payment of Liability with Respect to Tax Due. Within 90 days following the earlier of (i) the due date (taking
into account extensions) for filing any such Tax Return (excluding any Tax Return with respect to payment of estimated Taxes or Taxes due with a request for extension of time to file) or (ii) the date on which such Tax Return is filed, if eBay
is the Responsible Company, then SpinCo shall pay to eBay the amount, if any, allocable to the  

  
 - 19 - 








 
SpinCo Group under the provisions of Section 2, and if SpinCo is the Responsible Company, then eBay shall pay to SpinCo the amount allocable to the eBay Group under the provisions of
Section 2, in each case, plus interest computed at the Prime Rate on the amount of the payment based on the number of days from the earlier of (i) the due date of the Tax Return (including extensions) or (ii) the date on which such
Tax Return is filed, to the date of payment.

 Section 6. Tax Benefits. 

Section 6.01 Tax Benefits. 

(a) Except as set forth below, eBay shall be entitled to any refund (and any interest thereon received from the applicable Tax
Authority) of Income Taxes and Other Taxes for which eBay is liable hereunder, SpinCo shall be entitled to any refund (and any interest thereon received from the applicable Tax Authority) of Income Taxes and Other Taxes for which SpinCo is liable
hereunder and a Company receiving a refund to which another Company is entitled hereunder in whole or in part shall pay over such refund (or portion thereof) to such other Company within 90 days after such refund is received (together with interest
computed at the Prime Rate based on the number of days from the date the refund was received to the date the refund was paid over). 

(b) If (i) a member of the SpinCo Group actually realizes in cash any Tax Benefit as a result of (A) an adjustment pursuant
to a Final Determination or reporting required by Section 4.02(b) or (c) that increases Taxes for which a member of the eBay Group is liable hereunder (or reduces any Tax Attribute of a member of the eBay Group), or (B) any income
inclusion by the SpinCo Group with respect to which eBay is responsible for Federal Income Taxes pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or (c), and, in each case, such Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such adjustment, reporting or income
inclusion (determined on a “with and without” basis), or (ii) if a member of the eBay Group actually realizes in cash any Tax Benefit as a result of an adjustment pursuant to a Final Determination or reporting required by
Section 4.02(b) or (c) that increases Taxes for which a member of the SpinCo Group is liable hereunder (or reduces any Tax Attribute of a member of the SpinCo Group) and such Tax Benefit would not have arisen but for such adjustment or
reporting (determined on a “with and without” basis), SpinCo or eBay, as the case may be, shall make a payment to either eBay or SpinCo, as appropriate, within 90 days following such actual realization of the Tax Benefit, in an amount
equal to such Tax Benefit actually realized in cash (including any Tax Benefit actually realized as a result of the payment), plus interest on such amount computed at the Prime Rate based on the number of days from the date of such actual
realization of the Tax Benefit to the date of payment of such amount under this Section 6.01(b). 
 (c) No later than 90 days
after a Tax Benefit described in Section 6.01(b) is actually realized in cash by a member of the eBay Group or a member of the SpinCo Group, eBay (if a member of the eBay Group actually realizes such Tax Benefit) or SpinCo (if a member of the
SpinCo Group actually realizes such Tax Benefit) shall provide the other Company with a written calculation of the amount payable to such other Company by eBay or SpinCo pursuant to this Section 6. In the event that eBay or SpinCo disagrees
with any such calculation described in this Section 6.01(c), eBay or SpinCo shall so notify the other Company in writing within 90 days of receiving the written calculation set forth above in this Section 6.01(c). eBay and SpinCo shall
endeavor in good faith to resolve such disagreement, and, failing that, the amount payable under this Section 6 shall be determined in accordance with the disagreement resolution provisions of Section 14 as promptly as practicable.

 (d) SpinCo shall be entitled to any refund that is attributable to, and would not have
arisen but for, a SpinCo Carryback Item pursuant to the proviso set forth in Section 4.05; provided, however, SpinCo shall indemnify and hold the members of the eBay Group harmless from and against any and all collateral Tax consequences
resulting from or caused by any such Carryback, including (but not limited to) the loss or postponement of any benefit from the use of Tax Attributes generated by a member of the eBay Group or an Affiliate thereof if (x) such Tax Attributes
expire unutilized, but would have been utilized but for such Carryback, or (y) the use of such Tax Attributes is postponed to a later Tax Period than the Tax Period in which such Tax Attributes would have been utilized but for such Carryback.
Any such payment of such refund made by eBay to SpinCo pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) shall be recalculated in light of any Final Determination (or any other facts that may arise or come to light after such payment is made, such as a
carryback of an eBay Group Tax Attribute to a Tax Period in respect of which such refund is received) that would affect the amount to which SpinCo is entitled, and an appropriate adjusting payment shall be made by SpinCo to eBay such that the
aggregate amount paid pursuant to this Section 6.01(d) equals such recalculated amount (with interest computed at the Prime Rate).

cause any Affiliate of SpinCo to make) any representation or covenant that is inconsistent with historical facts or as to future matters or events over which it has no control). eBay and SpinCo shall each bear its own costs and expenses in obtaining
a private letter ruling or an Unqualified Tax Opinion requested by eBay.

Company information and documents relating to its Group required by the other Company to prepare Tax Returns. Any information or documents the Responsible Company requires to prepare such Tax
Returns shall be provided in such form as the Responsible Company reasonably requests and in sufficient time for the Responsible Company to file such Tax Returns on a timely basis. 

Section 8.03 Reliance by eBay. If any member of the SpinCo Group supplies information to a member of the eBay Group in connection
with a Tax liability and an officer of a member of the eBay Group signs a statement or other document under penalties of perjury in reliance upon the accuracy of such information, then upon the written request of such member of the eBay Group
identifying the information being so relied upon, the chief financial officer of SpinCo (or any officer of SpinCo as designated by the chief financial officer of SpinCo) shall certify in writing that to his or her knowledge (based upon consultation
with appropriate employees) the information so supplied is accurate and complete. SpinCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the eBay Group and its directors, officers and employees from and against any fine, penalty, or other cost
or expense of any kind attributable to a member of the SpinCo Group having supplied, pursuant to this Section 8, a member of the eBay Group with inaccurate or incomplete information in connection with a Tax liability. 

Section 8.04 Reliance by SpinCo. If any member of the eBay Group supplies information to a member of the SpinCo Group in connection
with a Tax liability and an officer of a member of the SpinCo Group signs a statement or other document under penalties of perjury in reliance upon the accuracy of such information, then upon the written request of such member of the SpinCo Group
identifying the information being so relied upon, the chief financial officer of eBay (or any officer of eBay as designated by the chief financial officer of eBay) shall certify in writing that to his or her knowledge (based upon consultation with
appropriate employees) the information so supplied is accurate and complete. eBay agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the SpinCo Group and its directors, officers and employees from and against any fine, penalty, or other cost or
expense of any kind attributable to a member of the eBay Group having supplied, pursuant to this Section 8, a member of the SpinCo Group with inaccurate or incomplete information in connection with a Tax liability. 

Section 9. Tax Records. 

Section 9.01 Retention of Tax Records. Each Company shall preserve and keep all Tax Records (including emails and other digitally
stored materials) exclusively relating to the assets and activities of its Group for Pre-Deconsolidation Periods and shall preserve and keep all other Tax Records relating to Taxes of the Groups for Pre-Deconsolidation Tax Periods, for so long as
the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (i) the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitations, or (ii) seven years
after the Deconsolidation Date (such later date, the “Retention Date”). After the Retention Date, each Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the other Company. If, prior to the Retention
Date, a Company reasonably determines that any Tax Records which it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this Section 9 are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and
the other Company agrees, then such first Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior notice to the other Company. Any notice of an intent to dispose given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall include a list of the


  
 - 30 - 








 
Tax Records to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail each file, book, or other record accumulation being disposed. The notified Company shall have the opportunity, at its cost and
expense, to copy or remove, within such 90-day period, all or any part of such Tax Records, and the other Party will then dispose of the same Tax Records. 

Section 9.02 Access to Tax Records. The Companies and their respective Affiliates shall make available to each other for
inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax Records to the extent reasonably required by the other Company in connection with the preparation of financial accounting statements, audits, litigation, the
preparation of Tax Returns, or the resolution of items under this Agreement. 
 Section 10. Tax Contests. 

Section 10.01 Notice. Each of the Companies shall provide prompt notice, within five business days, by Federal Express or the
equivalent with tracking receipt, to the other of any communication from a Tax Authority regarding any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest for which it may be entitled to indemnification by the other
Company hereunder. Such notice shall include copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail. The
failure of one Company to notify the other of such communication in accordance with the immediately preceding sentences shall not relieve such other Company of any liability or obligation to pay such Tax or make indemnification payments under this
Agreement, except to the extent that the failure timely to provide such notification actually prejudices the ability of such other Company to contest such Tax liability or increases the amount of such Tax liability. 

Section 10.02 Control of Tax Contests. 

(a) Separate Company Tax Returns.  

(i) Pre-Deconsolidation Date and Straddle Period Separate Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any
Separate Return (including any Separate Return with respect to Other Taxes) for any Tax Period ending on or prior to the Distribution Date or any Straddle Period, eBay (in the case of any such Separate Return filed with respect to any Person that,
following the Distribution, is a member of the eBay Group) or SpinCo (in the case of any such Separate Return filed with respect to any Person that, following the Distribution, is a member of the SpinCo group), as applicable, shall have exclusive
control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Sections 10.02(d), 10.02(e), and 10.02(f)(ii) below. 

(ii) Post-Deconsolidation Date Separate Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return
(including any Separate Return with respect to Other Taxes) for any Tax Period beginning after the Distribution Date, the Responsible Party shall have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any
settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Section 10.02(e) below. 

  
 - 31 - 








 (b) eBay Federal Consolidated Income Tax Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with
respect to any eBay Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return, eBay shall have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Sections 10.02(d) and 10.02(f)(i)
below. 
 (c) eBay State Combined Income Tax Returns, eBay Foreign Combined Income Tax Returns, and Other Joint Returns. In the case
of any Tax Contest with respect to any eBay State Combined Income Tax Return, any eBay Foreign Combined Income Tax Return or any Tax Return with respect to Other Taxes that is not described in Section 10.02(a), eBay shall have exclusive control
over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Section 10.02(d) below. 

(d) SpinCo Rights. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Tax Return described in Section 10.02(a), (b), or
(c) (other than any Separate Return described in Section 10.02(a)(ii)), if (x) as a result of such Tax Contest, SpinCo could reasonably be expected to become liable for an amount of Tax in excess of $1 million and (y) eBay
has control of such Tax Contest pursuant to Section 10.02(a), (b), or (c), as applicable, then (i) eBay shall consult with SpinCo reasonably in advance of taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Contest, (ii) eBay
shall consult with SpinCo and offer SpinCo a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, (C) eBay shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good
faith as if it were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax Contest, (D) SpinCo shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Contest and receive copies of any written materials relating to such Tax Contest received from the
relevant Tax Authority, and (E) eBay shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior written consent of SpinCo, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(e) eBay Rights. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Tax Return described in Section 10.02(a), if (x) as a
result of such Tax Contest, eBay could reasonably be expected to become liable for an amount of Tax in excess of $1 million and (y) SpinCo has the right to control such Tax Contest pursuant to Section 10.02(a), then (i) SpinCo shall
consult with eBay reasonably in advance of taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Contest, (ii) SpinCo shall consult with eBay and offer eBay a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials
prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, (iii) SpinCo shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith as if it were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax Contest, (iv) eBay shall be entitled to
participate in such Tax Contest and receive copies of any written materials relating to such Tax Contest received from the relevant Tax Authority, and (v) SpinCo shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Contest without obtaining the
prior written consent of eBay, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.02(e) shall apply to any Tax Contest with respect to a SpinCo Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return if, as a result of
such Tax Contest, eBay could reasonably be expected to become liable for Taxes pursuant to Section 2.02(b) or (c). 
 (f)
Distribution-Related Tax Contests. 
 (i) In the event of any Distribution-Related Tax Contest as a result of
which SpinCo could reasonably be expected to become liable for any Tax or Tax-Related Losses and 

  
 - 32 - 








 
which eBay has the right to administer and control pursuant to Section 10.02(b) above, (A) eBay shall consult with SpinCo reasonably in advance of taking any significant action in
connection with such Tax Contest, (B) eBay shall offer SpinCo a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, (C) eBay shall defend such Tax Contest
diligently and in good faith as if it were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax Contest, and (D) eBay shall provide SpinCo copies of any written materials relating to such Tax Contest received from the relevant Tax Authority.
Notwithstanding anything in the preceding sentence to the contrary, the final determination of the positions taken, including with respect to settlement or other disposition, in any Distribution-Related Tax Contest shall be made in the sole
discretion of eBay and shall be final and not subject to the dispute resolution provisions of Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. 

(ii) In the event of any Distribution-Related Tax Contest with respect to any SpinCo Separate Return, (A) SpinCo
shall consult with eBay reasonably in advance of taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Contest, (B) SpinCo shall consult with eBay and offer eBay a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials
prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, (C) SpinCo shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith as if it were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax Contest, (D) eBay shall be entitled to
participate in such Tax Contest and receive copies of any written materials relating to such Tax Contest received from the relevant Tax Authority, and (E) SpinCo shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Contest without obtaining the
prior written consent of eBay, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (g) Power of Attorney. 

(i) Each member of the SpinCo Group shall execute and deliver to eBay (or such member of the eBay Group as eBay shall
designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by eBay (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest (as to which eBay is the Controlling Party) described in this Section 10. 

(ii) Each member of the eBay Group shall execute and deliver to SpinCo (or such member of the SpinCo Group as SpinCo
shall designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by SpinCo (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest (as to which SpinCo is the Controlling Party) described in this Section 10. 

Section 11. Effective Date; Termination of Prior Intercompany Tax Allocation Agreements. This Agreement shall be
effective as of the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, (i) all prior intercompany Tax allocation agreements or arrangements solely between or among eBay and/or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and SpinCo and/or any of its
Subsidiaries, on the other hand (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Allocation Agreement, by and among eBay and certain of its Subsidiaries, dated as of January 1, 2003), shall be terminated, and (ii) amounts due under such
agreements as of the date on which the Effective Time occurs shall be settled. Upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to eBay or any of its Subsidiaries or by or to SpinCo 

  
 - 33 - 








 
or any of its Subsidiaries, with respect to such agreements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements between the Companies and their Affiliates shall
cease at such time. Any payments pursuant to such agreements shall be disregarded for purposes of computing amounts due under this Agreement; provided that to the extent appropriate, payments made pursuant to such agreements shall be credited
to SpinCo or eBay, respectively, in computing their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement, in the event that such payments relate to a Tax liability that is the subject matter of this Agreement for a Tax Period that is the subject matter
of this Agreement. 
 Section 12. Survival of Obligations. The representations, warranties, covenants and
agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time. 

Section 13. Treatment of Payments; Tax Gross Up. 

Section 13.01 Treatment of Tax Indemnity and Tax Benefit Payments. In the absence of any change in Tax treatment under the Code or
other applicable Tax Law, for all Income Tax purposes, the Companies agree to treat, and to cause their respective Affiliates to treat, (i) any indemnity payment required by this Agreement or by the Separation and Distribution Agreement as
either a contribution by eBay to SpinCo or a distribution by SpinCo to eBay, as the case may be, occurring immediately prior to the Distribution; and (ii) any payment of interest or State Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or
deductible, as the case may be, to the Company entitled under this Agreement to retain such payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment. 

Section 13.02 Tax Gross Up. If notwithstanding the manner in which payments described in Section 13.01(i) were reported,
there is an adjustment to the Tax liability of a Company as a result of its receipt of a payment pursuant to this Agreement or the Separation and Distribution Agreement, such payment shall be appropriately adjusted so that the amount of such
payment, reduced by the amount of all Income Taxes payable with respect to the receipt thereof (but taking into account all correlative Tax Benefits resulting from the payment of such Income Taxes), shall equal the amount of the payment which the
Company receiving such payment would otherwise be entitled to receive. 
 Section 13.03 Interest. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, to the extent one Company (“Indemnitor”) makes a payment of interest to another Company (“Indemnitee”) under this Agreement with respect to the period from the date that the Indemnitee made
a payment of Tax to a Tax Authority to the date that the Indemnitor reimbursed the Indemnitee for such Tax payment, the interest payment shall be treated as interest expense to the Indemnitor (deductible to the extent provided by law) and as
interest income by the Indemnitee (includible in income to the extent provided by law). The amount of the payment shall not be adjusted to take into account any associated Tax Benefit to the Indemnitor or increase in Tax to the Indemnitee. 

Section 14. Disagreements. The Companies desire that collaboration will continue between them. Accordingly, they will try, and
they will cause their respective Group members to try, to resolve in good faith all disagreements regarding their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in


  
 - 34 - 








 
the event of any dispute or disagreement (other than a High-Level Dispute) (a “Tax Advisor Dispute”) between any member of the eBay Group and any member of the SpinCo Group as to
the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement or the performance of obligations hereunder, the Tax departments of the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute. If such good faith negotiations do not resolve
the Tax Advisor Dispute, then the matter, upon written request of either Company, will be referred for resolution to the Escalation Committee, which will make a good faith effort to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute pursuant to the procedures set
forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. If the Escalation Committee does not agree to a resolution of a Tax Advisor Dispute within thirty (30) days after the reference of the Tax Advisor Dispute to it, then the matter
will be referred to a Tax Advisor acceptable to each of the Companies. The Tax Advisor may, in its discretion, obtain the services of any third-party appraiser, accounting firm or consultant that the Tax Advisor deems necessary to assist it in
resolving such disagreement. The Tax Advisor shall furnish written notice to the Companies of its resolution of any such Tax Advisor Dispute as soon as practical, but in any event no later than 45 days after its acceptance of the matter for
resolution. Any such resolution by the Tax Advisor will be conclusive and binding on the Companies. Following receipt of the Tax Advisor’s written notice to the Companies of its resolution of the Tax Advisor Dispute, the Companies shall each
take or cause to be taken any action necessary to implement such resolution of the Tax Advisor. In accordance with Section 16, each Company shall pay its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of its representatives) incurred in
connection with the referral of the matter to the Tax Advisor. All fees and expenses of the Tax Advisor in connection with such referral shall be shared equally by the Companies. Any High-Level Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to the procedures
set forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. Nothing in this Section 14 will prevent either Company from seeking injunctive relief if any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve the Tax Advisor Dispute through the
Escalation Committee and the Tax Advisor (or any delay resulting from the efforts to resolve any High-Level Dispute through the procedures set forth in Article VII of the Separation and Distribution Agreement) could result in serious and irreparable
injury to either Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, eBay and SpinCo are the only members of their respective Group entitled to commence a dispute
resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of eBay and SpinCo will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such party as provided in this Section 14. 

Section 15. Late Payments. Any amount owed by one party to another party under this Agreement which is not paid when due shall
bear interest at the Prime Rate plus two percent, compounded semiannually, from the due date of the payment to the date paid. To the extent interest required to be paid under this Section 15 duplicates interest required to be paid under any
other provision of this Agreement, interest shall be computed at the higher of the interest rate provided under this Section 15 or the interest rate provided under such other provision. 

Section 16. Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses
incurred in connection with preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 17.03 Waiver. Waiver by a Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a
waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof,
nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 

  
 - 36 - 








 Section 17.04 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application
thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions
other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an
effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties. 
 Section 17.05
Authority. eBay represents on behalf of itself and each other member of the eBay Group, and SpinCo represents on behalf of itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group, as follows: (i) each such Person has the requisite corporate or

delivered by it and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of it enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof. 

Section 17.06 Further Action. The parties shall execute and deliver all documents, provide all information, and take or refrain

Section 17.07 Integration. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Exhibits, Schedules and appendices hereto and thereto

relating to the transactions contemplated by the Separation and Distribution Agreement, or the Tax Allocation Agreement, with respect to matters addressed herein, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. 

Section 17.08 Construction. The language in all parts of this Agreement shall in all cases be construed according to its fair
meaning and shall not be strictly construed for or against any party. The captions, titles and headings included in this Agreement are for convenience only, and do not affect this Agreement’s construction or interpretation. Unless otherwise
indicated, all “Section” references in this Agreement are to sections of this Agreement. 
 Section 17.09 No Double
Recovery. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to provide an indemnity or other recovery for any costs, damages, or other amounts for which the damaged party has been fully compensated under any other provision of this Agreement or
under any other agreement or action at law or equity. Unless expressly required in this Agreement, a party shall not be required to exhaust all remedies available under other agreements or at law or equity before recovering under the remedies
provided in this Agreement.

 Section 17.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Party. Each Party acknowledges that it and each
other Party is executing certain of the Ancillary Agreements by facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature, and that delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement (whether executed by manual, stamp or mechanical
signature) by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF) shall be effective as delivery of such executed counterpart of this Agreement. Each Party expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature
(regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by email in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it will not assert that any
such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other Party at any time, it will as promptly as reasonably
practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier. 

Section 17.11 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or to the transactions
contemplated hereby or to the inducement of any party to enter herein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in
accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Delaware including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

assets, or otherwise, to any of the parties hereto (including but not limited to any successor of eBay, SpinCo or PayPal succeeding to the Tax attributes of either under Section 381 of the Code), to the same extent as if such successor had been
