Terms, Conditions and Limitations:

In the course of delivering accounting, consulting, tax services and QuickBooks data file assistance whether locally or remote PC connected, Tax Servicers, LLC. applies customary practices intended to provide these services securely and in a cost effective manner. This section of the Limited Engagement Agreement describes certain of these customary practices, as well as other standard terms, conditions, and limitations relating to our provision of tax services. Except to the extent we expressly agree in a written instrument signed by our authorized representative, all services that we provide to any client or third party (‘’You”) relating to accounting, consulting, tax services and QuickBooks data file assistance are subject to the following terms, conditions, and limitations (these “Terms”). References to the “Engagement Letter” mean the above section (the Limited Engagement Agreement) describing the scope of our services and the associated fee arrangement to which these Terms are attached. References to the “Code” mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

1. Terms Regarding Tax Return Preparation

1.1 Scope of Return Preparation Services. Our services in preparing your tax returns will be limited to tax return preparation, and our preparation of a return should not be viewed as assurance that the reported position is correct. If you would like us to advise you concerning any specific matter on your tax return, please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services. Any tax advice rendered in connection with the preparation of any tax return is subject to the provisions described under “Terms Regarding Tax Advice’’ below. Please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

1.2 No Review of Facts. We will not investigate or verify any facts underlying the transactions reported on your tax return. If the actual facts are different from the facts represented to or understood by us, or if there are other facts of which we are not aware the reporting of the transactions could be materially different than that reported on the returns prepared by us.

1.3 Your Responsibility for Accuracy. We will exercise professional care to include all pertinent information in your tax returns; but you are ultimately responsible for your tax returns. By signing your prepared tax returns, you are verifying that they are true, correct and complete. You should review each tax return carefully before signing it, and bring any questionable items or omissions to our attention.

1.4 Jurisdictions for Returns. We will prepare tax returns for those federal, state, local, and foreign jurisdictions requested by you in writing. We will advise you if we believe, based on information that you provide us, that a tax return should be filed in any other Jurisdiction, but we will not prepare any such tax return without your approval of the expansion of our scope of services. Please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

1.5 Level of Assurance. Professional rules prohibit us from signing any tax return that contains a position that we believe does not stand a realistic possibility of success if litigated unless the position is appropriately disclosed on the return. The “realistic possibility” standard means that a reasonable and well – informed analysis by a person knowledgeable in the tax law would lead to a conclusion that the position has approximately a one in three, or greater, likelihood of being sustained on its merits. It is possible that there could be a realistic possibility of success for more than one tax treatment of an item. You should be aware that merely meeting the “realistic possibility of success” standard is not sufficient to avoid the application of tax penalties under the Code. In certain circumstances, these penalties can be avoided if the tax position is supported by ‘’substantial authority” if during the course of preparing your tax returns we become aware of a position we believe is not supported by substantial authority, we will call this fact to your attention so you can evaluate the potential penalty risk. However, we will not conduct any review of any transactions for the purpose of determining whether the reported tax treatment is supported by substantial authority. If you are concerned about the potential application of tax penalties, please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

1.6 Disclosure of Reportable Transactions. The Code and state laws require that you disclose on your tax return certain ‘’reportable transactions’’ or ‘’listed transactions.’’ There are significant financial penalties for failure to disclose these transactions, and these penalties apply even if the transaction does not lead to an understatement of tax. You must advise us of any transactions you believe may be “reportable transactions” or “listed transactions.’’ Our tax return preparation services do not include any investigation to evaluate whether there are any transactions that are required to be reported on your returns. If you would like us to advise you concerning any potentially “reportable transactions’’ or ‘’listed transactions,’’ and our tax return preparation services do not include any investigations that are required to be reported on your returns, please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

2. Terms Regarding Tax Advice

2.1 Oral and Email Communication is Preliminary. We may discuss with you our views regarding the tax treatment of certain items. We may also provide you with tax information in the body of an email. Any advice or information delivered orally or in the body of an email will be based upon limited tax research and a limited discussion of the underlying facts. Additional research or a more complete review of the facts may affect our analysis and conclusions. Because of these limitations and the related risks, we do not recommend that you proceed with any transaction solely on the basis of any oral or email communication and we will not be held liable for any loss, cost, or expense resulting from any reliance on any oral or email communication.

2.2 Facts and Assumptions. Except as expressly described  in any letter, memorandum, or  opinion addressing  the application of tax laws to a particular situation (‘’Tax Advice”), we will not undertake an investigation to confirm or verify any of the facts described in the Tax Advice, and we will rely on the assumptions and representations described in the Tax Advice. Any change in or addition to these facts, assumptions, or representation could materially and adversely affect our analysis and conclusions. If you for any reason believe that any facts, assumptions, or representations in any Tax Advice are incorrect or incomplete, you must notify us immediately to discuss the impact on our analysis and conclusions. You should not rely upon any item of Tax Advice that is based on facts, assumptions, or representations that you believe to be incorrect or incomplete.

2.3 Applicable Law. Unless expressly stated in our Tax Advice, our analysis and conclusions will relate solely to Federal income tax consequences under the Code as of the date our Tax Advice. If you would like us to address tax consequences to you under any applicable state, local or foreign tax law, please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

2.4 Issues Addressed. Each item of Tax Advice will be limited to advice concerning the enumerated tax issues described in the Tax Advice, and may not consider all of the issues that may arise in connection with the transaction. Our analysis and conclusions are limited to discussing the tax consequences to the addressee(s) arising from the transactions described in that Tax Advice. It is possible that there may be alternative transaction structures that offer more favorable tax consequences. No item of Tax Advice is an endorsement of any particular transaction structure, nor is it a recommendation that any addressee proceed with the transaction structure described in the Tax Advice.

2.5 Reportable Transactions. The Code and certain state laws require that you disclose on your tax return certain “reportable transactions.” There are significant financial penalties for failure to disclose these transactions, and these penalties may apply even if the transaction does not lead to an understatement of tax. Except as expressly provided in the Tax Advice, we will not review any transaction to determine whether it is a “reportable transaction” or a “listed transaction.”

If you would like us to review any transaction to determine whether it is a “reportable transaction” or “listed transaction,” please contact us to discuss expanding the scope of our services, which would additionally require a separate written agreement.

2.6 No Guarantee. Our Tax Advice will be based upon our interpretation of applicable law and regulations and certain case and ruling authority as of the date of the Tax Advice. Some of these matters will not be free from doubt and our analysis and conclusions will not be binding on the IRS, any state, local, or foreign tax authority, or on any court. Our analysis and conclusions will be based upon our professional judgment, and will not be a guarantee of the ultimate tax consequences of the transactions described in the Tax Advice. If you would like greater certainty regarding the tax treatment of any particular transaction, please contact us to discuss the possibility of obtaining a ruling from the appropriate tax authority.

2.7 Reliance and Distribution. Each item of Tax Advice is rendered only for the benefit of the named addressee(s), and does not address the tax consequences to any other person or entity that is not an addressee. No person or entity other than the named addressee (s) may rely on the Tax Advice. To avoid confusion regarding matters of reliance, our Tax Advice may not be delivered to any other party unless you advise the recipient of these limitations on reliance. Unless expressly provided in an item of Tax Advice, but subject to the limitation in the preceding sentence, you are free to share the Tax Advice with any third party. You may deliver a copy of any advice to the IRS or any state, local, or foreign tax authority for the purpose of demonstrating good faith and reliance on the analysis and conclusions expressed therein. You should be aware that the delivery of any item of tax advice to a third party may act as a waiver of any otherwise available claim of privilege. Before delivering an item of Tax Advice to a third party, we recommend you consult with us or with legal counsel to assess the matters relating to claims of privilege.

2.8 Level of Assurance for Tax Advice. Many areas of tax law are unclear, and the application of the tax law to any particular facts may be subject to more than one interpretation. Accordingly, the level of assurance for any particular item of Tax Advice will depend on the underlying facts, the clarity of applicable law, regulations, ruling, and the extent of factual due diligence and tax research performed. The conclusions in our Tax Advice will be based on our good faith belief that they meet the level of assurance stated in the Tax Advice. Obtaining Tax Advice at a particular level of assurance may in some cases provide a defense to certain tax penalties, but you should not assume that an item of Tax Advice will offer you protection from penalties except as expressly stated in the Tax Advice.

3 Terms Applicable to All Tax Services

3.1 Scope of Services. Our services will be limited to the services specifically described in our Limited Engagement Agreement section. Services in providing Tax Advice or in preparing a tax return do not include representation in the event of an examination by the IRS or other tax authorities. If you need tax services beyond those specifically described in our Limited Engagement Agreement, these additional services would constitute either a separate engagement or an expansion of an existing engagement at an additional cost. Our agreement to provide services for one engagement does not obligate us to accept any other engagement.

3.2 Your Responsibilities. In order for us to provide effective service, you must cooperate with us and provide us with any information that we request, all on a timely basis. You must cause your employees and contractors to cooperate fully and timely with us. You must designate for us a person authorized to make or obtain all management decisions with respect to our services on a timely basis. We will rely in good faith on all information and management decisions communicated to us by you, your employees, or your contractors, and we will not be responsible for any loss or other
obligation arising from our reliance. Any failure to fulfill your responsibilities will be grounds for our suspending or terminating our services.

3.3 Decisions. While we will provide you with advice concerning tax return reporting and the tax consequences of certain transactions, you will retain all authority and responsibility for any decisions based on our advice.

3.4 Independent Contractor. For all tax services that we perform, we will be an independent contractor and not your employee, agent, or partner, and will determine the method, details and means of performing our services. We assume full and sole responsibility for the payment of all compensation and expenses of our employees and for all of their applicable employee withholdings.

3.5 Confidentiality. We will maintain the confidentiality of your confidential information. We may disclose your confidential information to our employees and third party contractors as necessary to provide our services. We may also disclose confidential information if required by a court or governmental agency, but we will use commercially reasonable efforts to inform you prior to disclosure. In certain circumstances, information that you disclose to us could be the subject of a claim of privilege, but you must generally maintain the privilege claim. If you have questions concerning the availability of any privilege or how and whether to assert a privilege you should contact your legal counsel. We will use reasonable precautions to protect your confidential information, but we have no obligation to employ any not regularly employed by you in protecting your confidential information. ‘Confidential information’ means information concerning you or your business that is marked “confidential” or disclosed orally and identified as “confidential” in writing at the time of disclosure. We will presume that information reported on your tax returns is confidential. Confidential information does not include information (i) that is or becomes publicly available or generally known to persons in your industry without breach of our obligation under this section, (ii) received by us after the termination of this Limited Engagement Agreement.

3.6 Engagement of Other Parties. In performing any tax services, we may engage the services of other domestic tax preparers, including seasonal prepares, independent contractors, or other third party personnel. By engaging
us, you have authorized us to allow such other third parties access to your files, financial information and other confidential information. Our engagement of any third party services does not affect our obligations to you.

3.7 Changes in Law. Subsequent changes to applicable law or regulations, or the issuance of new case or ruling authority, could materially and adversely affect the analysis and conclusions in an item of Tax Advice or a position reported on a tax return. Neither the delivery of any Tax Advice nor the preparation of a tax return is an undertaking on our part to advise you of any changes in law.

3.8 Possibility of Litigation. If the IRS or another tax authority adopts a position contrary to any analysis or conclusions in our Tax Advice or to any position reported on a tax return, it might be necessary to pursue administrative appeals or litigation. Decisions of whether and how to pursue administrative appeals or litigation may be based on considerations of cost, publicity, and other matters unrelated to the technical merits of a tax position. In some cases, taxpayers elect not to pursue appeals or litigation even though a reported position may ultimately be sustained on appeal or in litigation.

3.9 Disclaimer of Legal and Investment Advice. Our services do not constitute legal or investment advice. We recommend you retain competent legal counsel and investment advisers.

3.10 Warranty and Limitation. We warrant that our services will be performed with reasonable care in a diligent and competent manner.

3.14 Conflicting Engagements. If, in the course of providing our services, we determine at our sole discretion that a conflict of interest exists that prevents us from providing our services in accordance with applicable ethical rules, we will notify you of the conflict and may withdraw from representing you to the extent that such withdrawal is required or permitted by applicable ethical rules.
