SHARE SALE AGREEMENT
- $(c)$ All amounts expressed in this document are expressed exclusive of GST. Subject to paragraph (d) below, where GST is imposed on any supply made under this document by one party ("the supplying party") to another party ("the receiving party"), the receiving party must pay or provide the GST Exclusive Consideration for the supply and, in addition to and at the same time as the GST Exclusive Consideration is payable or to be provided, an additional amount calculated by multiplying the value of that GST Exclusive Consideration (without deduction or set-off) by the prevailing GST rate. This clause 16.6(c) does not apply to a supply for which a GST inclusive consideration has been agreed unless the supply is made after a change to the GST rate has been effected and the agreed GST inclusive consideration has not had the GST rate change taken into account, in which case the consideration payable for the supply shall be calculated pursuant to this clause.
- $(d)$ The receiving party is not required to pay any amount for GST to the supplying party unless the supplying party has issued a valid tax invoice to the receiving party.
- $(e)$ If the amount of GST recovered by the supplying party from the receiving party differs from the amount of GST payable at law by the supplying party (or an entity grouped with the supplying party for GST purposes) in respect of the supply, the amount payable by the receiving party to the supplying party will be adjusted accordingly.
- $(f)$ Where this document requires one party ("payer") to indemnify or reimburse another party ("payee") for any cost, loss or expense incurred by the payee, the requirement to pay does not extend to any part of such cost, loss or expense that is recoverable by the payee (or an entity grouped with the payee for GST purposes) as an input tax credit, but will be subject to a GST gross-up under paragraph (c) above if the payment constitutes consideration for a supply on which GST is imposed.
- $(g)$ If a party has a claim under or in connection with this document whose amount depends on actual or estimated revenue or which is for a loss of revenue, revenue must be calculated without including any amount received or receivable as reimbursement for GST (whether that amount is separate or included as part of a larger amount).
