Part III of Subchapter A of Chapter 32 of the Internal Revenue Code, the party
making the reimbursement, at its option, shall not be required to reimburse the other
party more than one
(1)business day before the other party is required to remit the
taxes to the Internal Revenue Service.
(2)If a party chooses to exercise its option under subsection
(1)of this section, and
provision is not already provided in the contract, the party shall notify the other
party in writing of its intention. The option may not be exercised until at least thirty
(30)days after the written notification or the beginning of the next federal tax
quarter, whichever is later.
(3)The party to be reimbursed under subsection
(1)of this section may require security
from the reimbursing party for the payment of the taxes in proportion to the amount

to the timing of the tax reimbursement, but may require the taxes to be reimbursed
by electronic transfer of funds.
