The Adjusted Balance Sheets will be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied on a basis consistent with the Financials and shall include without limitation all Estimated Third Party Expenses that have been accrued but that have not been paid prior to the Effective Time, any payments to Terminating Employees for severance or similar payments and any other payments triggered or accelerated by or contingent upon the Closing or the Merger. In the event that, pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.6(a), it is determined that (i) the amount equal to (A) the absolute value of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ total liabilities (as defined by and as determined in accordance with GAAP and shall include without limitation all Estimated Third Party Expenses that have been accrued but that were not paid prior to the Effective Time and any other payments triggered or accelerated by or contingent upon the Closing or the Merger, but shall exclude deferred revenue and the Specified Liabilities) at the Closing Date as reflected on the Adjusted Balance Sheets minus (B) the absolute value of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ total assets (as defined by and as determined in accordance with GAAP) at the Closing Date (collectively, the “Net Liabilities at Closing”) minus (C) the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount, is a number greater than the Balance Sheet Target, and/or (ii) the amount equal to (A) the absolute value of the total Specified Liabilities at the Closing Date as reflected on the Adjusted Balance Sheets (collectively, the “Specified Liabilities at Closing”) minus (B) the Specified Liabilities Adjustment Amount, is a number greater than $1,875,849, then an amount of Escrow Shares equal to the sum of the excess amount, if any, determined in accordance with clause (i) above plus the excess amount, if any, determined in accordance with clause (ii) above (collectively, the “Excess Liabilities”) shall be returned to Parent out of the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Following delivery by Parent to the Stockholder Representative of the Adjusted Balance Sheets, Parent shall give the Stockholder Representative reasonable access during Parent’s regular business hours to those books and records of the Surviving Corporation in the possession or control of Parent and any personnel which relate to the preparation of the Adjusted Balance Sheets for purposes of resolving any disputes concerning the Adjusted Balance Sheets and the calculation of Net Liabilities at Closing.

• Closing Adjustment Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Sellers shall provide Purchasers with a certificate signed by an officer of each of the Sellers attaching reasonable and good faith estimates (the “Closing Estimates”) of each of (i) the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), (ii) the Closing Cash Amount (the “Estimated Closing Cash Amount”); (iii) the Closing Date Indebtedness (the “Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness”); (iv) the Closing Date Transaction Fees (the “Estimated Closing Date Transaction Fees”); and (v) the Closing Adjustment (as defined below). Each of the Closing Estimates shall be determined in accordance with the Accounting Methodology. Purchasers shall be entitled to review, and propose reasonable changes to the Closing Estimates and Sellers shall provide Purchasers and their Representatives with reasonable access, at reasonable times following prior notice, to the officers, employees, agreements and books and records of the Transferred Entities to verify the accuracy of such amounts. The Sellers shall consider the Purchasers’ proposed changes in good faith. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement on any proposed changes, the Closing Estimates (and the components thereof) as proposed by the Sellers shall control solely for purposes of payments to be made at Closing and shall not limit or otherwise effect the Purchasers’ remedies under this Agreement or otherwise constitute an acknowledgment by Purchasers of the accuracy of the Closing Estimates. The “Closing Adjustment” shall equal (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital, plus (ii) the Estimated Closing Cash Amount, less (iii) the Target Working Capital, less (iv) the Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, and (v) less the Estimated Closing Date Transaction Fees.

• Closing Consideration The closing consideration shall be delivered at the Closing as follows:

• Adjustments to Consideration The number of shares of the Company Series A Preferred Stock shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any reclassification, combination, subdivision, stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into the Company Series A Preferred Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to the Company Series A Preferred Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

• Adjustment to Merger Consideration The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Common Stock), cash dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

• Closing Adjustments To the extent that any prorations, adjustments or other amounts with respect to the Contributed Entity or the Property shall be payable by or to the Contributors at or following each Closing in accordance with the provisions of the Master Agreement, the amount of the purchase consideration determined pursuant to Section 1.2(a) shall be adjusted accordingly, it being acknowledged and agreed by each Contributor that from and after the date hereof, (i) the Contributed Entity shall not declare, pay or otherwise make provision for any dividends or distributions and (ii) immediately prior to the Closing, in addition to any prorations, adjustments or other amounts payable by or to the Contributors with respect to the Contributed Entity or the Property, the Contributed Entity shall distribute to each Contributor receiving Securities an amount equal to the amount such Contributor would have been paid as a distribution on account of the Securities it will receive at Closing had such Securities been issued and sold to such Contributor at the Initial Closing.

• 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.

• 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

The Tax Adjustment Amount with respect to each Lease Year shall be paid in monthly installments in advance on the first day of each and every calendar month during such Lease Year, commencing January 1, 1998, in an amount estimated from time to time by Landlord and communicated by written notice to Tenant. As soon as practicable following the close of the 1998 and subsequent Lease Years, and receipt of actual tax bills, Landlord shall deliver to Tenant a statement setting forth (a) the actual Tax Adjustment Amount for such Lease Year; (b) the total of the estimated monthly installments of the Tax Adjustment Amount paid to Landlord for such Lease Year; and (c) the amount of any excess or deficiency with respect to such Lease Year. Tenant shall pay any deficiency to Landlord as shown by such statement within thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement. If the total of the estimated monthly installments paid by Tenant during any Lease Year exceeds the actual Tax Adjustment Amount due from Tenant for such Lease Year, at Landlord's option such excess shall be either credited against payments next due hereunder or refunded by Landlord, provided Tenant is not then in default hereunder.
