Effective Date; Termination of Prior Intercompany Tax Allocation Agreements This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. As of the Effective Time, (i) all prior intercompany Tax allocation agreements or arrangements solely between or among BGC Partners and/or any of its Subsidiaries shall be terminated, and (ii) amounts due under such agreements as of the date on which the Effective Time occurs shall be settled. Upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to the BGC Group, or by or to the Newmark Group, with respect to such agreements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements between the Companies and their Affiliates shall cease at such time. Any payments pursuant to such agreements shall be disregarded for purposes of computing amounts due under this Agreement; provided, that to the extent appropriate, as determined by BGC Partners, payments made pursuant to such agreements shall be credited to the Newmark Entities or the BGC Entities, respectively, in computing their respective obligations pursuant to this Agreement, in the event that such payments relate to a Tax liability that is the subject matter of this Agreement for a Tax Period that is the subject matter of this Agreement.
Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five (5) Business Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within five (5) Business Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account(s) as is directed by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be.
Post-Closing Adjustments As soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth each adjustment or payment that was not finally determined as of the Closing and showing the calculation of such adjustments and the resulting Final Purchase Price. Seller shall make its workpapers and other information available to Purchaser to review in order to confirm the adjustments shown on Seller’s draft. As soon as practicable after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, but in no event later than sixty (60) days thereafter, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written report containing any changes that Purchaser proposes to make to the Final Settlement Statement. Any failure by Purchaser to deliver to Seller the written report detailing Purchaser’s proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement within sixty (60) days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed an acceptance by Purchaser of the Final Settlement Statement as submitted by Seller. The parties shall agree with respect to the changes proposed by Purchaser, if any, no later than sixty (60) days after Seller receives from Purchaser the written report described above containing Purchaser’s proposed changes. If the Purchaser and the Seller cannot then agree upon the Final Settlement Statement, the determination of the amount of the Final Settlement Statement shall be submitted to a mutually agreed firm of independent public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”). The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and shall be enforceable against any party hereto in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser equally. The date upon which such agreement is reached or upon which the Final Purchase Price is established, shall be herein called the “Final Settlement Date.” In the event
Post-Closing Adjustment (i) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Closing Statement”) that shall set forth in reasonable detail Seller’s calculation of the net amount of all adjustments to the Base Purchase Price required by Section 2.6(a) taking into account actual data (the “Purchase Price Adjustment”), together with reasonable supporting material regarding the computation thereof. Buyer shall have thirty (30) days to review the Closing Statement following receipt thereof. On or before the end of such 30-day review period, Buyer may object to the Closing Statement by written notice to Seller (the “Objection Notice”), setting forth Buyer’s specific objections to the calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment. Such Objection Notice shall specify those items or amounts with which Buyer disagrees, together with a detailed written explanation of the reasons for disagreement with each such item or amount (and reasonable supporting material therefor), and shall set forth Buyer’s calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment based on such objections. To the extent not set forth in a timely-delivered Objection Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with Seller’s calculation of all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and neither party may thereafter dispute any item or amount not set forth in such Objection Notice. If Buyer does not timely deliver any Objection Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with and accepted Seller’s calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment, and the Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties as of the end of Buyer’s 30-day review period.
Confirmation of Percentage Rent Lessee shall utilize, or cause to be utilized, an accounting system for the Leased Property in accordance with its usual and customary practices, and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that will accurately record all data necessary to compute Percentage Rent, and Lessee shall retain, for at least four (4) years after the expiration of each Fiscal Year (and in any event until the reconciliation described in Subsection 3.1(c) for such Fiscal Year has been made), reasonably adequate records conforming to such accounting system showing all data necessary to compute Percentage Rent for the applicable Fiscal Years. Lessor, at its expense (except as provided hereinbelow), shall have the right from time to time, upon prior written notice to Lessee and Manager, by its accountants or representatives to audit the information that formed the basis for the data set forth in any Officer’s Certificate provided under Subsection 3.1(d) and, in connection with such audits, to examine all Lessee’s records (including supporting data and sales and excise tax returns) reasonably required to verify Percentage Rent, subject to any prohibitions or limitations on disclosure of any such data under Legal Requirements; provided, however that Lessor may only inspect or audit records in Manager’s possession subject to the terms of Lessee’s access thereto under the Management Agreement. If any such audit discloses a deficiency in the payment of Percentage Rent, and either Lessee agrees with the result of such audit or the matter is otherwise determined or compromised, Lessee shall forthwith pay to Lessor the amount of the deficiency, as finally agreed or determined, together with interest at the Overdue Rate from the date when said payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof; provided, however, that as to any audit that is commenced more than two (2) years after the date Percentage Rent for any Fiscal Year is reported by Lessee to Lessor, the deficiency, if any, with respect to such Percentage Rent shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate only from the date such determination of deficiency is made unless such deficiency is the result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Lessee, in which case interest at the Overdue Rate will accrue from the date such payment should have been made to the date of payment thereof. If any such audit discloses that the Percentage Rent actually due from Lessee for any Fiscal Year exceed those reported by Lessee by more than three percent (3%), Lessee shall pay the cost of such audit and examination. Any proprietary information obtained by Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be treated as confidential, except that such information may be used, subject to appropriate confidentiality safeguards, in any litigation between the parties and except further that Lessor may disclose such information to prospective lenders. The obligations of Lessee contained in this Section shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.
Allocation Schedule No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the scheduled Closing Commencement Date, the Company shall deliver to FLAC an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) setting forth (a) the number of each class and series of Company Shares held by each Company Shareholder, the number of Company Shares subject to each Company Equity Award (whether directly or indirectly through depository receipts for Company Shares) held by each holder thereof, as well as whether each such Company Equity Award will be vested or unvested as of immediately prior to the Effective Date, and, in the case of the Company Options, the exercise price of thereof, as well as reasonably detailed calculations and vesting schedule with respect to the components and subcomponents thereof, and the number of Company Shares subject to each other warrant, award, convertible security or any other right to subscribe for Company Ordinary Shares held by each holder thereof, and (b) the number of Holdco Shares that each Company Shareholder or holder of any other option, warrant, award, convertible security or any other right to subscribe for Company Ordinary Shares is entitled to receive as a result of Company Share Exchange (including after giving effect to the exercise of any Company Issuance Rights in connection with the Company Share Exchange) and (c) the Earnout Pro Rata Share allocated to each Company Shareholder, Eligible Optionholder or holder of Company Issuance Right, as the case may be, as well as reasonably detailed calculations with respect to the component and subcomponents thereof, and (d) a certification, duly executed by an authorized officer of the Company, that the information and calculations delivered pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) are, and will be as of immediately prior to the Effective Date, (i) true and correct in all respects and (ii) in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Governing Documents of the Company, the Company Shareholders Agreement and applicable Laws and, in the case of the Company Equity Awards, a Company Equity Incentive Plan and any applicable grant or similar agreement with respect to any such Company Equity Award. The Company will review any comments to the Allocation Schedule provided by FLAC or any of its Representatives and consider in good faith and incorporate any reasonable comments proposed by FLAC or any of its Representatives prior to the issuance of any Holdco Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate number of Holdco Shares that each Company Shareholder or holder of other Equity Securities (including a holder of Company Issuance Rights) will have a right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b) will be (A) rounded down to the nearest whole number in the event that the fractional Holdco Share that otherwise would be so paid is less than five-tenths (0.5) of a Holdco Share and (B) rounded up to the nearest whole number in the event that the fractional Holdco Share that otherwise would be so paid is greater than or equal to five-tenths (0.5) of a Holdco Share.
