Closing Balance Sheet (a) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared the balance sheet of the Subject Company as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet"). Within fifteen (15) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver the Closing Balance Sheet to Seller, accompanied by (i) a certificate of an executive officer of Purchaser to the effect that (except with respect to adjustments required by this Agreement) the Closing Balance Sheet has been prepared and presented consistent with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis with the preparation of the Financial Statements (as defined in Section 2.6), and fairly presents the financial position of the Subject Company as of the Closing Date and (ii) a statement documenting the calculation of the Working Capital ("Working Capital Calculation Statement"). The Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital Calculation Statement shall be audited by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, independent public accountants of Purchaser ("Purchaser's Auditor"), and reviewed by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, independent public accountants of Seller ("Seller's Auditor"), who will be afforded full access to all books and records of the Subject Company and work papers used by Purchaser's Auditor in its audit. Purchaser's Auditor will issue a report to Purchaser and Seller within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date concerning their audit and stating that the Closing Balance Sheet has been prepared in accordance with GAAP, it being understood that the report of Purchaser's Auditor must be unqualified.
(b) Within fifteen (15) days following the date on which the report of Purchaser's Auditor is delivered pursuant to Section 1.5(a), Seller shall give notice to Purchaser as to whether or not Seller's Auditor concurs with Purchaser's Auditor's report (such notice to contain Seller's Auditor's comments and exceptions to the Closing Balance Sheet, if any). If Seller gives notice that Seller's Auditor does not concur with Purchaser's Auditor's report and the parties are unable to mutually resolve Seller's Auditor's exceptions within ten (10) days following the date of such notice, then within twenty (20) days following the date of such notice Purchaser and Purchaser's Auditor and Seller and Seller's Auditor shall jointly select and retain an independent firm of certified public accountants of national standing and reputation (the "Independent Firm") for the purpose of resolving all remaining unresolved issues with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Working Capital Calculation Statement. In the event that Seller and Seller's Auditor, on the one hand, and Purchaser and Purchaser's Auditor, on the other hand, are unable to agree upon the firm to be selected as the Independent Firm within such twenty (20) day period, then such selection shall be made by an independent arbitrator agreed upon from a list of three arbitrators supplied, at Purchaser's request, within five days after the expiration of the twenty-day period, to Purchaser and Seller from the American Arbitration Association, and the retention of the Independent Firm shall be made by Seller and Purchaser within five (5) days after such list is supplied.
(c) Within ten (10) days following such retention of the Independent Firm, Seller shall cause Seller's Auditor, and Purchaser shall cause Purchaser's Auditor, to present to the Independent Firm the issue or issues that must be resolved with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of the Purchase Price.
(d) Seller and Purchaser shall use their best efforts to cause the Independent Firm to render its decision as soon as is reasonably practicable, including, without limitation, prompt compliance with all reasonable requests by the Independent Firm for information, papers, books, records and the like; provided that Seller and Purchaser agree that the purpose of retention of the Independent Firm shall not include the conduct of its own independent audit of the Closing Balance Sheet, but rather shall be limited to resolving the issues presented to it and matters related thereto. All decisions of the Independent Firm with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Working Capital Calculation Statement shall be final and binding upon both Seller and Purchaser.
(e) Purchaser and Seller shall bear all fees, costs, disbursements and other expenses of their own respective auditor associated with performance of their respective functions pursuant to this Section 1.5. For purposes of this Agreement, payment of all fees, costs, disbursements and other expenses of the Independent Firm which are incurred pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be (i) split evenly between Seller and Purchaser if the amount of Working Capital arrived at by the Independent Firm is in the range that is greater than 25% of the Working Capital Differential (as defined below) plus the Working Capital determined by Purchaser's Auditor and less than the difference of the Working Capital determined by Seller's Auditor minus 25% of the Working Capital Differential, or (ii) by (A) Seller, if the amount of the Working Capital arrived at by the Independent Firm is less than or equal to 25% of the Working Capital Differential plus the Working Capital determined by Purchaser's Auditor, or (B) Purchaser, if the amount of the Working Capital arrived at by the Independent Firm is greater than or equal to the difference of the Working Capital determined by Seller's Auditor minus 25% of the Working Capital Differential. The "Working Capital Differential" shall mean the amount of the Working Capital determined by Seller's Auditor less the amount of the Working Capital determined by Purchaser's Auditor.
Net Working Capital Adjustment (a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”) calculating the Net Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Net Working Capital”) as well as the adjustments to Transaction Consideration which shall be made pursuant to this Section 1.6, together with all underlying documentation supporting such calculations. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its preparation of the Closing Statement.
(b) During the sixty (60) days immediately following delivery of the Closing Statement, Seller and its professional representatives shall be entitled to review the Closing Statement and any working papers, financial records, trial balances and similar materials relating to the Closing Statement prepared by the Purchaser or by Persons retained by it, and Purchaser shall provide Seller with reasonable access to work papers of Purchaser’s accountants relating thereto, and Purchaser shall make reasonably available the individuals in its and its Affiliates’ employ as well as representatives of its accountants responsible for and knowledgeable about the information used in, and the preparation of the Closing Statement, to respond to the reasonable inquiries of, or requests for information by Seller, during normal business hours. If Seller disputes any amounts as shown on the Closing Statement, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Closing Statement a notice (the “Dispute Notice”) setting forth Seller’s calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and describing in reasonable detail the basis (including for each component, the difference and the amount thereof and reasons therefor) for the determination of such different amount. If Seller does not deliver a Dispute Notice to Purchaser within such thirty (30) day period, the Closing Statement (and the determination of Closing Net Working Capital therein) prepared and delivered by Purchaser shall be deemed to be the Final Closing Statement and the Final Closing Net Working Capital. Any such disputes shall be limited to assertions that the Closing Statement (and the determination of Closing Net Working Capital therein) was not calculated in accordance with the terms of this Section 1.6. Any component not disputed in the Dispute Notice shall be treated as final and binding. Purchaser and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such differences within a period of thirty (30) days after Seller has given the Dispute Notice. If Purchaser and Seller resolve such differences, the Closing Statement and Closing Net Working Capital agreed to by Purchaser and Seller shall be deemed to be the Final Closing Statement and Final Closing Net Working Capital. If Purchaser and Seller do not reach a final resolution on the Closing Statement and Closing Net Working Capital within thirty (30) days after Seller has delivered the Dispute Notice, unless Purchaser and Seller mutually agree to continue their efforts to resolve such differences, the Neutral Accountant shall resolve such differences with respect to the adjustment under this Section 1.6 pursuant to an engagement agreement among Purchaser, Seller, and the Neutral Accountant (which Purchaser and Seller agree to execute promptly), in the manner provided below. The Neutral Accountant shall have full authority to decide all of the issues or matters relating to the adjustments under this Section 1.6 (it being understood that in making such determination, the Neutral Accountant shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator), but shall only decide the specific components under dispute in the Dispute Notice (the “Disputed Items”), strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser and Seller shall each be entitled to make a presentation to the Neutral Accountant at which the other shall be entitled to be present and participate, pursuant to procedures to be agreed to among Purchaser, Seller, and the Neutral Accountant (or, if they cannot agree on such procedures, pursuant to procedures determined by the Neutral Accountant), regarding such Party’s determination of the amounts to be set forth on the Closing Statement (and the determination of Closing Net Working Capital therein); and Purchaser and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Neutral Accountant to resolve the differences between them and determine the amounts to be set forth on the Closing Statement (and the determination of Closing Net Working Capital therein) within twenty (20) days after the engagement of the Neutral Accountant. Each of Purchaser and Seller, as a condition precedent to making a presentation to the Neutral Accountant and having the Neutral Accountant review its calculations, shall provide reasonable advance access to the other Party with respect to such materials and reasonably cooperate with the other Party in its review and analysis thereof. The Neutral Accountant’s determination shall be based solely on such presentations of Purchaser and Seller (i.e., not on independent review) and on the definitions and other terms included in this Agreement. The Closing Statement (and determination of Closing Net Working Capital therein) determined by the Neutral Accountant shall be deemed to be the Final Closing Statement and Final Closing Net Working Capital. Such determination by the Neutral Accountant shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. The fees, costs and expenses of the Neutral Accountant shall be allocated to and borne by Purchaser and Seller based on the inverse of the percentage that the Neutral Accountant’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Neutral Accountant. Nothing in this Section 1.6(b) shall be construed to authorize or permit the Neutral Accountant to: (i) determine any questions or matters whatsoever under or in connection with this Agreement, except for the resolution of differences between Purchaser and Seller regarding the determination of the Final Closing Statement (and Final Closing Net Working Capital calculation therein), it being expressly acknowledged and agreed that the Neutral Accountant shall have authority to resolve only matters of an accounting nature and shall not have authority to resolve any disputes of a legal nature (with any dispute as to whether a matter is of an accounting or legal nature to be resolved by the Neutral Accountant); or (ii) resolve any such differences by making an adjustment to any component of the Closing Statement and (Closing Net Working Capital calculation therein) that is outside of the range defined by amounts as finally proposed by Purchaser and Seller.
(c) Promptly, but no later than ten (10) Business Days after the final determination thereof, if the Final Closing Net Working Capital set forth in the Final Closing Statement: (i) exceeds the Target Net Working Capital Range Maximum (taking into consideration any adjustments to the Closing Cash Consideration by reason of the Estimated Net Working Capital calculation as set forth in Section 1.5(b)), Purchaser shall pay such excess amount to Seller; or (ii) is less than the Target Net Working Capital Range Minimum (taking into consideration any adjustments to the Closing Cash Consideration by reason of the Estimated Net Working Capital calculation as set forth in Section 1.5(b)), Seller shall pay such shortfall amount to Purchaser. To the extent the amount paid by Seller is less than such shortfall, Purchaser may, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, collect such amount from the Escrow Account. Any payments made pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Transaction Consideration by the Parties. The Parties acknowledge that the limitations on indemnification set forth in Article VI are inapplicable to the adjustments to be made under this Section 1.6.
Post-Closing Capitalization At, and immediately after, the Closing, the authorized capitalization, and the number of issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company and the Parent, on a fully-diluted basis, as indicated on a schedule to be delivered by the Parties at or prior to the Closing, shall be acceptable to the Parent in its sole and absolute discretion.
Working Capital Adjustment (a) The Company will, in good faith and in consultation with HSE, prepare and deliver to HSE within three (3) days before the Closing Date (i) a calculation of the Closing Indebtedness Pay-Off Amount (the “Estimated Closing Indebtedness Pay-Off Amount”), (ii) a calculation of the Closing Cash Amount (the “Estimated Closing Cash Amount”), and (iii) a calculation of the amount of Unpaid Transaction Costs (the “Estimated Unpaid Transaction Costs Amount”), (collectively, the items in clauses (i)—(iii) are referred to as the “Estimated Pre-Closing Adjustments”). The calculation of the Estimated Pre-Closing Adjustments will be prepared by the Company in accordance with the definitions set forth in this Agreement. If HSE disputes any portion of the Estimated Pre-Closing Adjustments prior to Closing, then HSE and the Company will negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve any such dispute at or prior to Closing.
(b) No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing, HSE shall cause to be prepared (i) a statement of the Net Working Capital of the Company as of the Calculation Date (the “Net Working Capital Closing Statement”) and (ii) a calculation of the Closing Indebtedness Pay-Off Amount, the Closing Cash Amount and the Unpaid Transaction Costs prepared in accordance with the definitions set forth in this Agreement (the “Final Cost Adjustments”). The Net Working Capital Closing Statement shall contain line item detail comparable to the balance sheet included in the most recent Financial Statements with respect to the components of the Net Working Capital of the Company as of the Calculation Date. The Representative, on behalf of Transferor, shall have a period of thirty (30) days following its receipt of the Net Working Capital Closing Statement, the Final Cost Adjustments and related worksheets to provide written notice of the Representative’s objection, on behalf of Transferor, to the Net Working Capital Closing Statement, the Final Cost Adjustments or the related worksheets (which notice shall state the basis for the Representative’s objection). If, within such thirty (30) day period, the Representative, on behalf of Transferor, has not given HSE written notice of its objection to the Net Working Capital Closing Statement, the Final Cost Adjustments or the related worksheets, then the Net Working Capital and the Final Cost Adjustments respectively reflected therein shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties and used in making the adjustment provided for in Section 2.2(c). If the Representative, on behalf of Transferor, timely provides any such objection, Transferor and HSE shall work in good faith to resolve any differences with respect thereto. If, at the end of a fifteen (15)-day period from the date of delivery of any objection by the Representative, on behalf of Transferor, there are any matters that remain in dispute, then the remaining matters in dispute shall be submitted to Xxxx & Associates (the “Referee”) within the following five (5) Business Days for resolution. The Referee shall make a determination with respect to the disputed matters submitted to it and determine the Net Working Capital of the Company and the Final Cost Adjustments as of the Calculation Date within 30 days after the objections that remain in dispute are submitted to it. If any objections are submitted to the Referee for resolution, (i) each Party shall furnish to the Referee such work papers and other documents and information relating to such objections as the Referee may request and are available to that Party (or its independent public accountants) and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Referee any material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such determination with the Referee; (ii) the determination by the Referee of the Net Working Capital of the Company and the Final Cost Adjustments as of the Calculation Date, as set forth in a written notice delivered to each of the Representative, on behalf of Transferor, and HSE by the Referee, shall be calculated in accordance with the past practices utilized in preparing the most recent Financial Statements, and shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties and, absent manifest error, shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and unappealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereof; and (iii) the fees and expenses of the Referee shall be borne one-half by Transferor and one-half by HSE. The final Net Working Capital of the Company as of the Calculation Date, as determined in accordance with this Section 2.2(b), is referred to as the “Final Net Working Capital.”
(c) If the Final Net Working Capital is less than zero, Transferor shall promptly pay to HSE an aggregate amount in cash equal to such deficiency. If the Final Net Working Capital is greater than zero, HSE shall pay to Transferor on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount of such excess in cash; provided, however, such payment by HSE shall not be due and payable to Transferor until the thirtieth (30th) day following the date that HSE has collected an aggregate amount of Accounts Receivable in excess of the aggregate current liabilities included in the calculation of Final Net Working Capital. In the event the sum of (i) the Closing Cash Amount minus (ii) the Closing Indebtedness Pay-Off Amount minus (iii) the Unpaid Transaction Costs set forth in the calculation of the Final Cost Adjustments is less than such sum set forth in the calculation of the Estimated Pre-Closing Adjustments, Transferor shall promptly pay the amount of such deficiency to HSE in cash. In the event such sum set forth in the calculation of the Final Cost Adjustments is greater than the sum set forth in the calculation of the Estimated Pre-Closing Adjustments, HSE shall promptly pay to Transferor the amount of such excess in cash.
Net Working Capital At least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Estimated NWC Certificate”), including a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date, prepared in accordance with the accounting principles, methods, practices, estimates, judgments and assumptions applied in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, consistently applied (the “Accounting Principles”), which shall include (a) the Sellers’ good faith estimate (such estimate is referred to as the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”) of the “Net Working Capital Amount.” As used herein, “Net Working Capital Amount” means the Net Working Capital of the Company as of 11:59 p.m. EST on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. “Net Working Capital” means the result of (i) all cash of the Company minus (ii) all current liabilities (excluding the Existing Indebtedness) of the Company, in each case determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles. The Purchase Price at Closing shall be increased by the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company dated at the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and (ii) a reasonably detailed statement (the “Final NWC Certificate”) setting forth Buyer’s calculations of the Net Working Capital Amount. If Sellers have any objections to the Final NWC Certificate, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”), provided that the only bases for objections shall be (i) non-compliance with the standards set forth above for preparation of the Final NWC Certificate, or as set forth in the definition of Net Working Capital, and (ii) mathematical errors. If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Final NWC Certificate, the Final NWC Certificate shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the parties hereto. Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sellers, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (and any applicable similar state rule)), but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, Sellers and Buyer may submit such dispute to one of the “Big Four” accounting firms other than Ernst & Young LLP or PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or, in the event that any such auditor is unable to accept such appointment, to any other nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers (the “Independent Auditor”). Each party shall be afforded an opportunity to present to the Independent Auditor material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the determination with the Independent Auditor. The Independent Auditor shall act as an auditor and not as an arbitrator and shall resolve matters in dispute and adjust and establish any disputed adjustment of the Net Working Capital Amount to reflect such resolution, provided that the Independent Auditor shall not assign a value to any item or amount in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand. It is the intent of Buyer and Sellers that the process set forth in this Section 11(F) and the activities of the Independent Auditor in connection herewith are not intended to be and, in fact, are not arbitration and that no formal arbitration rules shall be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). Sellers and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to resolve all such disagreements as promptly as practicable. The resolution of the dispute by the Independent Auditor shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto. The Final NWC Certificate shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor shall be allocated for payment by Buyer, on the one hand, and/or Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Independent Auditor. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers cash equal to the amount by which the Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Sellers shall pay to Buyer cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Net Working Capital Amount.
Closing Date Balance Sheet (i) As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause its independent certified public accountants ("Purchaser's Accountants") to prepare and deliver to Sellers a draft consolidated balance sheet (the "Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet") for the Acquired Companies as of the opening of business on the Effective Date. The Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet (i) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and AICPA review standards applied on a basis consistent with the preparation of the financial statements described in Section 5.4 hereof but without regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) shall set forth the total liabilities (excluding any tax liability of the Company resulting from Purchaser's election to treat the stock purchase as a purchase of assets under the provisions of Section 338 of the Internal Revenue Code) of the Acquired Companies as of the opening of business on the Effective Date (the "Closing Date Total Liabilities") and the stockholder's equity (defined as the difference between the Acquired Companies' assets minus their total liabilities) of the Acquired Companies as of the opening of business on the Effective Date (the "Closing Date Stockholder's Equity").
(ii) If Sellers holding a majority of the Shares (the "Requisite Sellers") have any objections to the Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet, they will deliver a statement describing in detail their objections to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days after receiving the Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet. If no such objections are delivered by the Requisite Sellers within such thirty (30) day period, the Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet shall be deemed accepted by the Sellers. The Purchaser and the Requisite Sellers will use reasonable efforts to resolve any such objections themselves. If the Purchaser and the Requisite Sellers do not obtain a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the Purchaser has received the statement of objections, however, the Purchaser and the Requisite Sellers will select an accounting firm mutually acceptable to them to resolve any remaining objections. If the Purchaser and the Requisite Sellers are unable to agree on the choice of an accounting firm, they will select a nationally-recognized accounting firm by lot (after excluding their respective regular outside accounting firms). The determination of any accounting firm so selected will be set forth in writing and will be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. The Purchaser will revise the Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet as appropriate to reflect the resolution of any objections thereto pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(ii). The ``Closing Date Balance Sheet'' shall mean the Draft Closing Date Balance Sheet together with any revisions thereto pursuant to this Section 2.3(a)(ii).
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.
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.
Pro Forma Balance Sheet; Financial Statements The Lenders shall have received (i) the Pro Forma Balance Sheet, (ii) audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the most recently ended fiscal year and (iii) unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for each fiscal quarter ended after the date of the latest applicable financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph as to which such financial statements are available.
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions There is no transaction, arrangement or other relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off-balance sheet entity which is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (other than as disclosed therein).
