... consumption taxes, duties or other taxes imposed upon and paid with respect to such sales (excluding income or franchise taxes of any kind) and (iii) separately itemized insurance and transportation costs incurred in shipping the Product to such third parties. No deduction shall be made for any item of cost incurred by Columbia, its Affiliates or sublicensees in preparing, manufacturing, shipping or selling the Product except as permitted pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the foregoing sentence. Columbia's Net Sales shall not include any transfer between Columbia and any of its Affiliates or sublicensees for resale.
