Unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Seller Representative, the Parent shall not, and shall not permit the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, for a period of six (6) years following the Closing Date, destroy or delete any of the books and records of any Group Company for any period prior to the Closing Date without first giving reasonable prior notice to the Seller Representative and offering to surrender to the Seller Representative a copy of such books and records or any portion thereof which the Parent, the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries may intend to destroy or delete. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the disclosure of information contemplated by this Section 7.01 shall not be required if (i) it would require Parent or any Group Company to disclose information which Parent has reasonably determined upon the advice of counsel could result in the loss of the ability to successfully assert attorney-client privilege or attorney work-product privilege, conflict with any third party confidentiality obligations to which Parent or any of its Affiliates is bound, or would violate any applicable Law, provided, that the Parent and the Group Companies shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to enable the Seller Representative to have permissible access to such information in a manner that would not result in loss of such privilege, conflict with such confidentiality obligations or violation of the Law, and in the case of confidentiality obligations to a third party, shall request the consent of the applicable third party to permit such disclosure, in each case, at the Seller Representative’s sole cost and expense, or (ii) the Parent, the Group Companies or any of its or their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Seller Representative, any Securityholder or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in any Action and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto. Any access to books, records or personnel of the Group Companies by the Seller Representative in connection with the Closing Statement or any dispute thereof shall be exclusively governed by Section 1.11.
Inspection of Property, Books and Records The Borrower will keep, and will cause each Subsidiary to keep, proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries shall be made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities; and will permit, and will cause each Subsidiary to permit, representatives of any Bank at such Bank's expense to visit and inspect any of their respective properties, to examine and make abstracts from any of their respective books and records and to discuss their respective affairs, finances and accounts with their respective officers, employees and independent public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may reasonably be desired.
