Accounts Receivable and Payable (a) The accounts receivable shown on the Company Balance Sheet arose in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, represented bona fide claims against debtors for sales and other charges, and have been collected or are collectible in the book amounts thereof. Allowances for doubtful accounts and warranty returns have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and in accordance with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ past practices and are sufficient to provide for any losses which may be sustained on realization of the receivables. The accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries arising after the Balance Sheet Date and before the Closing Date arose or shall arise in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, represented or shall represent bona fide claims against debtors for sales and other charges, and have been collected or are collectible in the book amounts thereof. None of the accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries is subject to any claim of offset, recoupment, setoff or counter-claim, and the Company has no knowledge of any specific facts or circumstances (whether asserted or unasserted) that could give rise to any such claim. None of the accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries is contingent upon the performance by the Company or any Subsidiary of any obligation or Contract and no agreement for deduction or discount has been made with respect to any of such accounts receivable. The Company has provided to Acquiror or its counsel an accurate aging of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ accounts receivable in the aggregate and by customer, which indicates the amounts of allowances for doubtful accounts, warranty returns, accounts receivable of the Company and its Subsidiaries which are subject to asserted warranty claims by customers and reasonably detailed information regarding asserted warranty claims made within the last year, including the type and amounts of such claims. (b) All accounts payable and notes payable of the Company and its Subsidiaries arose in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices in bona fide arms’ length transactions and no such account payable or note payable is delinquent by more than sixty (60) days in its payment. Since December 31, 2013, the Company has paid its accounts payable in the ordinary course of its business and in a manner which is consistent with its past practices.
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 (a) the Final Purchase Price is more than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such difference, or (b) the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such difference, in either event by wire transfer in immediately available funds. Payment by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall be within five (5) days of the Final Settlement Date.
Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable (a) The Seller agrees that it will utilize normal collection efforts consistent with past business practices of the Seller in collecting the outstanding accounts receivable of the Seller generated by the Purchased Assets as of the Effective Date. The Seller shall not undertake any formal collection action (whether legal action, referral to a collection agency or otherwise) with respect to any such Account Receivable without first consulting with the Buyer. The Seller agrees to pay, in a manner consistent with past business practice of the Seller, the outstanding accounts payable of the Seller as of the Effective Date. The Buyer shall not, and shall not permit its employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or agents to, directly or indirectly, encourage any customer of Seller not to make payment on any accounts receivable of Seller or commit any action which could reasonably lead or cause any customer not to make such a payment and the Buyer shall otherwise cooperate with Seller and its designees (and cause its personnel and accountants to cooperate) in Seller’s collection efforts. (b) Both parties agree, as expeditiously as possible, to notify the Customers set forth on Exhibit 2.25, of the sale of the Purchased Assets, and to instruct such Customers that any monies due on invoices for service periods prior to the Effective Date shall be paid to Seller/Capital via the Capital lockbox mechanism, and all monies due on invoices for service periods subsequent to the Effective Date shall be paid to Buyer. The parties agree that in the event payments are received by either of the parties on accounts receivable from customers who are customers of both of the Buyer and Seller, and in the event that the customer has not provided instructions on the face of the remittance or any accompanying documentation or correspondence, the party receiving such payment shall contact the Customer to ascertain how the payment is to be applied. In the event such inquiry is unsuccessful, then such payments shall be applied first to the oldest outstanding invoice(s). In the event that either party receives proceeds of accounts receivable which belong to the other party, such party will immediately remit such proceeds, in kind, to the other party; provided, however, that, in the case of monies being received by Buyer and due to Seller, such proceeds shall be remitted to the Capital lockbox.
Accounts Receivable; Accounts Payable (a) All accounts receivable of the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries, whether reflected on the Company Balance Sheet or subsequently created, are valid receivables that have arisen from bona fide transactions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. All such accounts receivable are good and collectible (and subject to no setoffs or counterclaims) at the aggregate recorded amounts thereof, net of any applicable reserves for doubtful accounts reflected on the Company Balance Sheet as adjusted for operations and transactions through the Closing Date in accordance with past custom and practice of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing shall be construed as a guarantee of collectability. Each of the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to their respective accounts receivable, free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens. Since the Balance Sheet Date, there have not been any write-offs as uncollectible of any notes or accounts receivable of any of the Acquired Companies or any of their Subsidiaries, except for write-offs as uncollectible of doubtful accounts reflected on the Company Balance Sheet as adjusted for operations and transactions through the Closing Date in accordance with past custom and practice of the Acquired Companies. (b) All accounts payable and notes payable of the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries, whether reflected on the Company Balance Sheet or subsequently created, are valid payables that have arisen from bona fide transactions in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. Since the Balance Sheet Date, the Acquired Companies and their Subsidiaries have paid their accounts payable in the ordinary course of their business and in a manner which is consistent with past practices.
Closing Adjustments (a) No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Target Company will deliver to Holdings the Target Company’s calculation of the Merger Consideration, including the Company’s good-faith estimate of each of: (i) the Closing Working Capital and the resulting Working Capital Adjustment, (ii) the amount of outstanding Indebtedness as of the Closing and the resulting Indebtedness Adjustment, and (iii) the total amount of Transaction Expenses that are incurred and unpaid by the Target Company as of the Closing and the resulting Transaction Expense Adjustment, in reasonable detail (the “Closing Statement”). Such estimates will be based on the Target Company’s books and records, the best estimate of the management of the Target Company and other information then available and will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Holdings will have the right to review the Closing Statement and such supporting documentation or data of the Target Company as Holdings may reasonably request. If Holdings does not agree with the Closing Statement, the Target Company and Holdings will negotiate in good faith to mutually agree on an acceptable Closing Statement no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and the Target Company will consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that Holdings may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that the failure to include in the Closing Statement any changes proposed by Holdings, or the acceptance by Holdings of the Closing Statement, or the consummation of the Closing, will not limit or otherwise affect Holdings’ remedies under this Agreement, including Holdings’ right to include such changes or other changes in the Closing Statement, or constitute an acknowledgment by Holdings of the accuracy of the Closing Statement; provided, further, that the failure of Holdings and the Seller Representative to reach such mutual agreement will not give any party the right to terminate this Agreement or otherwise fail to close the transactions contemplated hereunder.
Accounts Receivable All accounts receivable of the Acquired Companies that are reflected on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date (collectively, the "Accounts Receivable") represent or will represent valid obligations arising from sales actually made or services actually performed in the Ordinary Course of Business. Unless paid prior to the Closing Date, the Accounts Receivable are or will be as of the Closing Date current and collectible net of the respective reserves shown on the Balance Sheet or the Interim Balance Sheet or on the accounting records of the Acquired Companies as of the Closing Date (which reserves are adequate and calculated consistent with past practice and, in the case of the reserve as of the Closing Date, will not represent a greater percentage of the Accounts Receivable as of the Closing Date than the reserve reflected in the Interim Balance Sheet represented of the Accounts Receivable reflected therein and will not represent a material adverse change in the composition of such Accounts Receivable in terms of aging). Subject to such reserves, each of the Accounts Receivable either has been or will be collected in full, without any set-off, within ninety days after the day on which it first becomes due and payable. There is no contest, claim, or right of set-off, other than returns in the Ordinary Course of Business, under any Contract with any obligor of an Accounts Receivable relating to the amount or validity of such Accounts Receivable. Part 3.8 of the Disclosure Letter contains a complete and accurate list of all Accounts Receivable as of the date of the Interim Balance Sheet, which list sets forth the aging of such Accounts Receivable.
Accounts Receivables Each existing Account constitutes, and each hereafter arising Account will, when such Account arises, constitute, the legally valid and binding obligation of the Account Debtor, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to materially adversely affect the value or collectability of the Accounts included in the Collateral, taken as a whole. No Account Debtor has any defense, set-off, claim or counterclaim against any Grantor that can be asserted against the Administrative Agent, whether in any proceeding to enforce the Administrative Agent’s rights in the Accounts included in the Collateral, or otherwise, except for defenses, setoffs, claims or counterclaims that could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to materially adversely affect the value or collectability of the Accounts included in the Collateral, taken as a whole. None of the Grantors’ accounts receivables are, nor will any hereafter arising account receivable be, evidenced by a promissory note or other Instrument (other than a check) that has not been pledged to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof.
Closing Adjustment (a) The Company shall deliver to Buyer no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a statement that sets forth the Company’s good faith estimate of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Estimated Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles; (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount; (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price (the “Estimated Purchase Price”) and the Cash Consideration (the “Estimated Cash Consideration”), together with reasonably detailed calculations demonstrating each component thereof and such documentation and access to the Company’s Books and Records as is reasonably requested by Buyer to permit Buyer to review the calculation of amounts set forth therein. Buyer shall have the ability to review and provide comments to (i) – (vi) above and the Company shall consider in good faith Buyer’s comments. (b) No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Members’ Representative a statement that sets forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount, (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price and the Cash Consideration, together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations demonstrating each component thereof (the “Closing Date Statement”). (c) The Members’ Representative shall have thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Date Statement in which to notify Buyer in writing (such notice, a “Closing Date Dispute Notice”) of any discrepancy in, or disagreement with, the items reflected on the Closing Date Statement (and specifying the amount of each item in dispute and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such discrepancy or disagreement), and upon agreement by Buyer regarding the adjustment requested by the Members’ Representative, an appropriate adjustment shall be made thereto. If the Members’ Representative does not deliver a Closing Date Dispute Notice to Buyer during such thirty (30)-day period, the Closing Date Statement shall be deemed to be accepted in the form presented to the Members’ Representative. If the Members’ Representative timely delivers a Closing Date Dispute Notice and Buyer and the Members’ Representative do not agree, within thirty (30) days after timely delivery of the Closing Date Dispute Notice, to resolve any discrepancy or disagreement therein, either the Members’ Representative or Buyer may submit the discrepancy or disagreement for review and final determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, it being understood that in making such determination, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The review by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited solely to the discrepancies and disagreements set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice and a single written submission to the Independent Accounting Firm by each of Buyer and the Members’ Representative with respect to such discrepancies and disagreements (which shall also be provided to the other party). The resolution of such discrepancies and disagreements and the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital and the resulting Adjustment Amount, the Company Cash and the resulting Company Cash Deficiency (if any), the Closing Indebtedness Amount, and the Company Transaction Expenses by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be (i) in writing, (ii) made in accordance with the Accounting Principles, definitions and relevant provisions of this Agreement, (iii) with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, no greater than the higher amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative as the case may be, (iv) made as promptly as practicable after the submission of such discrepancies and disagreements to the Independent Accounting Firm (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date of submission), and (v) final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns for all purposes hereof, and not subject to collateral attack for any reason absent manifest error or fraud. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated to and borne by Buyer and the Members (in accordance with their respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions, which may be paid out of the Representative Expense Fund to the extent thereof) based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. For example, should the aggregate value of the items in dispute equal $1,000 and the Independent Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Members’ Representative’s position and $400 in favor of Buyer, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of such costs would be borne by the Members’ Representative (on behalf of the Members). Within five (5) Business Days of the resolution of all matters set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice, by mutual agreement of Buyer and the Members’ Representative or by the Independent Accounting Firm, Buyer shall prepare a revised version of the Closing Date Statement including an updated Purchase Price and Cash Consideration (the “Final Purchase Price”) reflecting such resolution and shall deliver copies thereof to the Members’ Representative, and such revised version (and all amounts set forth therein) shall be considered final and binding on the parties (the “Final Closing Date Statement”). (d) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to the Payment Agent for distribution to the Members on behalf of TopCo in connection with the Redemption the entire amount of such difference in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and Buyer and the Members’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release to the Payment Agent the entire balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, in each case for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions. If the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, the Members’ Representative (on behalf of each Member) and Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the entire amount of such difference to Buyer out of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, with any remaining balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund to be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Payment Agent (for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions); provided, however, that if the amount payable to Buyer under this Section 1.9(d) exceeds the Purchase Price Escrow Fund (a “Purchase Price Excess”), Buyer shall have the right to require the Members, severally and not jointly, in each case based on their then current respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions to pay to Buyer the Purchase Price Excess in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the Final Purchase Price is equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, there shall not be any adjustment. (e) Any payments made pursuant to Section 1.9 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
Post-Closing Adjustment (a) Promptly after the Closing Date, and in any event not later than twenty (20) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth Seller’s good faith calculation of (i) Closing Working Capital, (ii) Closing Indebtedness, (iii) Transaction Expenses, (iv) Closing Cash, and (v) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price, together with reasonable supporting detail and documentation. The Post-Closing Statement shall be accompanied by a certificate of an executive officer of Seller stating that the Post-Closing Statement has been prepared in accordance with this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles (to the extent applicable) and the definitions set forth herein. Purchaser shall give Seller and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to the premises, books and records, and appropriate personnel of the Business, the Conveyed Companies and Purchaser for purposes of the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement in accordance with this Section 2.4(a), and Purchaser shall instruct its personnel (including the Transferred Employees) and Representatives to reasonably cooperate with, and promptly and completely respond to all reasonable requests and inquiries of, Seller and its Representatives. Upon execution of a customary access letter if required by the applicable Party’s outside accountants, each Party and its Representatives shall have reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to all relevant work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared by the other Party or its Representatives (including its outside accountants) to the extent related to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and/or Transaction Expenses in any respect. Following delivery of the Post-Closing Statement, Seller shall afford Purchaser and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to Sellers’ and its Affiliates’ appropriate personnel involved in the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement. (b) Purchaser and Purchaser’s accountants and financial and other advisors may make inquiries of Seller and/or Seller’s accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Post-Closing Statement arising in the course of Purchaser’s review, and Seller shall instruct its personnel and Representatives to reasonably cooperate with, and promptly and completely respond to all reasonable requests and inquiries of, Purchaser and its Representatives. Purchaser shall complete its review of the Post-Closing Statement within seventy-five (75) days after the delivery thereof to Purchaser. In no event later than the conclusion of such seventy-five (75) day period, Purchaser may submit to Seller a letter regarding its concurrence or disagreement with the accuracy of the Post-Closing Statement; provided that any such letter must specify (i) the items of the Post-Closing Statement with which Purchaser disagrees, (ii) the adjustments that Purchaser proposes to be made to the Post-Closing Statement (each, a “Disputed Item”) and (iii) the specific amount of such disagreement and all reasonable supporting detail and documentation and calculations (the “Purchaser Objection Statement”); and provided, further, that Purchaser may only disagree with the Post-Closing Statement to the extent Purchaser claims Seller did not prepare the Post-Closing Statement in a manner consistent with the Accounting Principles (to the extent applicable) or the terms of this Agreement (including the definitions set forth herein). If Purchaser does not deliver a Purchaser Objection Statement before the conclusion of such seventy-five (75) day period, the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding upon the Parties and Purchaser shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts contained in the Post-Closing Statement. If Purchaser does deliver a Purchaser Objection Statement, following such delivery, Seller and Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to resolve promptly any disagreement as to the computation of any item in the Post-Closing Statement. Any items as to which there is no disagreement shall be deemed agreed. If a resolution of such disagreement has not been effected within ten (10) days (or longer, as mutually agreed by the Parties) after delivery of the Purchaser Objection Statement, then Seller and Purchaser shall execute a customary engagement letter with the Accountant and submit any unresolved Disputed
