Do you have to subtract taxes from both unlevered and levered free cash flows?

I found a formula online that was this for levered free cash flows:

LFCF = EBITDA - change in net working capital - CAPEX - mandatory debt payments

This is incorrect, right? Because you have to subtract taxes just like how you subtract taxes in unlevered free cash flows.
