Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment 1.9.1 Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Closing Net Working Capital Statement”) which shall set forth the Net Working Capital of the Newsprint Business and of Apache as of the Closing Time (which shall be set forth separately for each of the Newsprint Business and Apache, but as aggregated shall be referred to as the “Closing Net Working Capital”) and shall be prepared in accordance with Seller’s past accounting methods, policies, practices and procedures and in the same manner, with consistent classification and estimation methodology, as the Financial Statements were prepared, except that the Excluded Assets and the Newsprint Retained Obligations shall be excluded. The Closing Net Working Capital Statement may not be amended by Seller after it is delivered to Purchaser. 1.9.2 Purchaser shall, within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement to it, complete its review of the Closing Net Working Capital reflected on the Closing Net Working Capital Statement. If Purchaser wishes to dispute the Closing Net Working Capital, Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing in reasonable detail of such disagreement and any reason therefore (“Purchaser’s Objection”), setting forth a specific description of the basis of Purchaser’s Objection and the adjustments to the Closing Net Working Capital that Purchaser believes should be made, on or before the last day of such thirty (30) day period, which Purchaser’s Objection may not be amended by Purchaser after it is delivered to Seller (except to withdraw any such Purchaser’s Objection). Any items on the Closing Net Working Capital Statements not disputed in Purchaser’s Objection shall be irrevocably deemed to be accepted by Purchaser. Seller shall then have thirty (30) days to review and respond to Purchaser’s Objection. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve all of their disagreements with respect to the determination of the foregoing items within thirty (30) days following Seller’s receipt of Purchaser’s Objection (the “Negotiation Period”), they shall refer their remaining differences to a mutually agreeable independent accounting firm of national recognition (other than an independent accounting firm utilized by any of Seller, Apache or Purchaser or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing within the past three (3) years) acceptable to both Seller and Purchaser or if Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree as to such third party accounting firm within ten (10) days after the conclusion of the Negotiation Period, either Seller or Purchaser may request that the Chairman of the American Arbitration Association (or the nominated representative of the Chairman) appoint a third party accounting firm meeting the aforementioned requirements to resolve the dispute (the accounting firm selected being referred to as the “CPA Firm”), who shall determine, only with respect to the remaining differences so submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Closing Net Working Capital requires adjustment. The procedure and schedule under which any dispute shall be submitted to the CPA Firm shall be as follows: (a) Within ten (10) days after the later of (i) the end of the Negotiation Period and (ii) the selection of the CPA Firm, Purchaser shall submit any unresolved elements of the Purchaser’s Objection to the CPA Firm in writing (with a copy to Seller), supported by any documents and/or affidavits upon which it relies. Failure to timely do so shall constitute a withdrawal by Purchaser of the Purchaser’s Objection with respect to any unresolved element to which such failure relates. (b) Within fifteen (15) days following Purchaser’s submission of the unresolved elements of the Purchaser’s Objection as specified in sub-clause (a) above, Seller shall submit its response to the CPA Firm in writing (with a copy to Purchaser), supported by any documents and/or affidavits upon which it relies. Failure to timely do so shall constitute an acceptance by Seller with respect to any unresolved elements to which such failure relates. (c) The CPA Firm shall deliver its written determination to Purchaser and Seller no later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the remaining differences underlying Purchaser’s Objection are referred to the CPA Firm, or such longer period of time as the CPA Firm determines is necessary.
Closing Purchase Price Buyer shall have delivered the Closing Purchase Price in accordance with Section 2.5.
Closing Consideration (a) At the Closing, Buyer shall pay to Seller or its designee, and Seller or its designee shall receive on behalf of the Affiliate Sellers and Asset Sellers, in consideration for the purchase of the Shares and the Purchased Assets pursuant to Section 2.1, an amount of cash (the “Closing Consideration”) equal to $1,978,151,867 (the “Base Purchase Price”) plus any Adjusted Statutory Book Value Surplus, minus any Adjusted Statutory Book Value Deficit, plus any Other Acquired Companies Shareholders Equity Surplus, minus any Other Acquired Companies Shareholders Equity Deficit, minus the Adjustment for PRIAC IMR Tax Gross-up, in each case, determined by reference to the Estimated Closing Statement in accordance with Section 2.6 (such aggregate amount, as adjusted in accordance with Section 2.7, the “Purchase Price”). (b) At the Closing, in accordance with the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements: (i) Seller shall transfer for deposit into the applicable PICA FSS Trust Account Investment Assets (PICA) that are Authorized Investments selected and valued in accordance with the Valuation Methodologies with an aggregate fair market value equal to the Net Initial Reinsurance Settlement Amount for the applicable PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreement as reflected on the Estimated Reinsurance Settlement Statement (“Transferred Investment Assets”) in accordance with Section 2.3(d); provided, if (A) the amount of the Initial Reinsurance Premium is greater than the Required Balance (as defined in the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements) as of the Effective Time for the applicable PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreement as reflected on the Estimated Reinsurance Settlement Statement (such excess amount with respect to the applicable PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreement, the “Overfunding Amount”) and (B) the applicable Overfunding Amount is greater than the applicable portion of the Ceding Commission, then Seller shall transfer directly to the applicable Reinsurer Transferred Investment Assets with an aggregate fair market value, determined in accordance with the Valuation Methodologies, equal to the amount by which the applicable Overfunding Amount exceeds such portion of the Ceding Commission, and only the remainder of the Transferred Investment Assets shall be deposited into the applicable PICA FSS Trust Account; (ii) The applicable Reinsurer shall transfer to the applicable PICA FSS Trust Account Authorized Investments such that, after giving effect to the transfers contemplated by Section 2.3(b)(i), the aggregate Book Value (as defined in the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements) in each such PICA FSS Trust Account is equal to the Required Balance (as defined in the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements) as of the Effective Time for the applicable PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreement as reflected on the Estimated Reinsurance Settlement Statement; and (iii) Seller shall credit to the applicable Modco Account the applicable Separate Account Assets (as such terms are defined in the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements). (c) Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller at least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date a statement setting forth an allocation of the full amount of the Ceding Commission between each of the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements. (d) Seller shall undertake its ordinary course process consistent with past practice for determining any credit-related impairments or credit-related losses in value as of the Closing Date for the Transferred Investment Assets and reflect any credit- related impairments or credit-related losses in value from such process in the Transferred Investment Assets. Following the Closing, Seller shall provide reasonable documentation reasonably requested by Buyer for purposes of Xxxxx’s assessment of any credit-related impairments or credit-related losses as of the Closing Date. Seller shall sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to the applicable Reinsurer free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances or Encumbrances imposed under the applicable PICA FSS Trust Agreements) good and marketable title to the Transferred Investment Assets in respect of the PICA FSS Reinsurance Agreements (for the avoidance of doubt, together with all of Seller’s rights, title and interest thereto, including with respect to the investment income due and accrued thereon) and deposit on their behalf to the applicable PICA FSS Trust Account pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(i). Any investment assets to be transferred to a PICA FSS Trust Account shall be transferred in the manner set forth in the applicable PICA FSS Trust Agreement. All third-party costs or expenses incurred (whether prior to, on or following the Closing Date), including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with the transfers of assets to the PICA FSS Trust Accounts or the Reinsurers (including any re-registrations or re-titling thereof) as contemplated by Section 2.3(b)(i) and this Section 2.3(d) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer.
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.
Cash Purchase Price The term "Cash Purchase Price" shall have the meaning set forth in Section 2.3(a).
Adjustments to the Shares and Warrant Price In order to prevent dilution of the purchase rights granted under this Warrant, the Warrant Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2.
Adjustment to Purchase Price (a) The Closing Payment shall be increased by the parties' good faith estimate of the Current Assets of Seller and decreased by the parties' good faith estimate of the Current Liabilities of Seller as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Adjustment"), which adjustment shall be subject to final adjustment as provided for in paragraph (c) below. (b) No later than sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, or within three (3) days after receipt of the necessary accounting data from the NRTC Central Billing System, whichever is later, Purchaser shall make and deliver to Seller a balance sheet reflecting the Current Assets and Current Liabilities of Seller as of the Closing Date (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"), prepared on a basis consistent with GAAP. For purposes of the Closing Adjustment and the Final Closing Adjustment (as hereinafter defined), the amount of Accounts Receivable of Seller to be included in the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall include only Accounts Receivable of Subscribers as reflected on Report 18A (Subscriber Accounts Receivable Aging By Account) of the NRTC Central Billing System Reports less a reserve of six percent (6%) for Accounts Receivable which are not collectible. In addition, the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Final Closing Adjustment shall not include as a Current Asset any accounts receivable arising from Leased Subscriber Equipment. Purchaser may, by providing Seller with written notice at least five (5) days prior to the Closing, elect to purchase all, or certain of, the DSS(TM) subscriber equipment owned by Seller (other than Leased Subscriber Equipment) on the Closing Date; provided, however, Purchaser shall not have the right to acquire any assets attributable to Seller's Electric Business. Any such equipment which is purchased by Purchaser shall be included as Inventory in the Closing Date Balance Sheet. Except as set forth in this Section 4.4(b), no other assets or liabilities shall be included in the Closing Date Balance Sheet. Seller shall make available to Purchaser such documentation, back-up, invoices, and books and records of Seller as Purchaser may reasonably request. (c) Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to reconcile any discrepancies which may arise in connection with the determination of the Closing Date Balance Sheet. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reconcile such discrepancies, Seller shall have fifteen (15) days from presentment of the Closing Date Balance Sheet by Purchaser to notify Purchaser if Seller wishes to have Purchaser's determination examined. If Seller elects to have Purchaser's determination examined, it shall be submitted to the determination in Atlanta, Georgia, by the Certified Public Accounting firm of KMPG Peat Marwick (or any other independent Certified Public Accounting firm mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser), the cost of such examination to be paid fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser. The determination by Purchaser shall be final and binding on the parties unless Seller elects to have an examination as provided herein, in which case the results of the examination shall be made within thirty (30) days of such referral, and shall be final and binding on the parties (the "Final Closing Adjustment"). (d) To the extent the Final Closing Adjustment is less than the Closing Adjustment, Seller shall pay the difference in cash to Purchaser within five (5) days after the final determination. In the event the Final Closing Adjustment is greater than the Closing Adjustment, Purchaser shall pay such excess in cash to Seller within five (5) days after the final determination. If, following any payment pursuant to this Section 4.4(d), an error (in billing or reporting by NRTC or otherwise) is thereafter discovered which would have affected the Final Closing Adjustment, the party in whose favor the error was made shall immediately pay in cash the amount of such error to the other party.
Purchase Price Closing (a) The total amount which the buying party shall pay the selling party in a purchase shall be the amount that the selling party would have received if the Company (i) sold the Property for an amount equal to the Buy-Sell Stated Value, (ii) satisfied the indebtedness of the Company specifically referred to in subsection (b) below (and no other liabilities) out of the sale proceeds and (iii) distributed the remaining balance to Administrative Agent and PACOP in accordance with their respective percentage ownership interests in the Company (i.e., 51%, in the case of PACOP, and up to 49%, in the case of Administrative Agent). (b) In determining the amount of the liabilities that the Company would pay pursuant to Subsection 2(a)(ii), it shall be assumed that the Company would satisfy (through payment of the full payoff amount), in order, the following liabilities in full (and no others): (i) the Secured Note, and (ii) any Mezzanine Loan Deficiency. As used in this Agreement “Mezzanine Loan Deficiency” shall be determined based upon the actual amount received (or bid or credited, as applicable) by Administrative Agent at a foreclosure sale under and in accordance with the Security Agreement on such Membership Interests as Administrative Agent may foreclose on expeditiously and without opposition; the full payoff amount of the loans evidenced by the Mezzanine Loan Agreement, less the amounts so received, bid or credited, as applicable, shall be the Mezzanine Loan Deficiency. In the event that Administrative Agent has not yet foreclosed on the Pledged Interests, the Mezzanine Loan Deficiency shall be an amount equal to the full outstanding amount of the Mezzanine Loan. Administrative Agent shall provide PACOP notice of such foreclosure sale as required by the New York Uniform Commercial Code. PACOP hereby fully waives any right to challenge the determination and calculation of such Mezzanine Loan Deficiency.
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.
Post-Closing Adjustment (a) Within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser (i) an unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries dated as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the "Closing Balance Sheet") showing the Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries at the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Net Worth Amount") and (ii) a schedule (the "Closing Debt Schedule") of the amount of Long Term Debt at the Closing Date (the "Preliminary Debt Amount"). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with the definitions and procedures set forth on the Post-Closing Adjustment Schedule. In connection with the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule, Purchaser shall give, and shall cause the Acquired Company and its representatives to give, to Seller and its representatives full access at all reasonable times to the books, records and other materials of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries and the personnel of, and work papers prepared by or for Purchaser, the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries or their respective accountants, including, without limitation, to such historical financial information relating to the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries as Seller may reasonably request in order to permit the timely preparation and delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule in accordance with this Section 1.05(a). (b) Upon receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule, Purchaser shall have thirty (30) days (the "Review Period") to review such Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Debt Schedule and related computations of the Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries and the Closing Debt on the Closing Date. If Purchaser has accepted such Closing Balance Sheet Closing Debt Schedule in writing or has not given written notice to Seller setting forth in reasonable detail any objection of Purchaser to such Closing Balance Sheet or Closing Debt Schedule(a "Statement of Objections") prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then such Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Debt Schedule shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the Preliminary Net Worth Amount shall be deemed the Net Worth amount of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date (the "Final Net Worth Amount") and the Preliminary Debt Amount shall be deemed to be the amount of Long Term Debt as of the Closing Date (the "Final Debt Amount"). In addition, to the extent any portion of the Closing Balance Sheet or of the calculation of the Preliminary Net Worth Amount, of the Closing Debt Schedule or of the calculation of the Preliminary Debt Amount shall not be expressly objected to in the Statement of Objections, such matters shall be deemed to have been accepted and approved by Purchaser and shall be final and binding upon the parties for purposes hereof. In the event that Purchaser delivers a Statement of Objections during the Review Period, Purchaser and Seller shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on the amount of Net Worth of the Acquired Company and the Subsidiaries on the Closing Date within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Seller of the Statement of Objections. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement as to such amounts within such thirty (30) day period, then the matter shall be submitted to Deloitte & Touche LLP, or such other accountant as shall be mutually agreed between the parties hereto (such accountant, the "Settlement Accountant"), who shall determine the matters still in dispute and adjust the Closing Balance Sheet to reflect such determination and establish the Final Net Worth Amount and adjust the Closing Debt Schedule and establish the Final Debt Amount. If issues in dispute are submitted to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, each party will furnish to the Settlement Accountant such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Settlement Accountant may request, and will be afforded the opportunity to present to the Settlement Accountant any material relating to the resolution of the disputed items and to discuss the resolution of the disputed items with the Settlement Accountant; provided, that no party shall have any ex parte discussions with the Settlement Accountant (other than after reasonable notice to the other party and such party's refusal or failure to participate). The Settlement Accountant will be instructed in performing the review that Purchaser and Seller will each be provided with copies of any and all correspondence and drafts distributed to any party, and Purchaser and Seller will be granted access to information contained in the documents made available to the Settlement Accountant by the other party. The Settlement Accountant shall determine only those matters in dispute (and based solely on the materials and other information presented by Seller and Purchaser and not by independent investigation). The Settlement Accountant shall make its determination within thirty (30) days (or as soon as practicable thereafter if the Settlement Accountant notifies the parties that it requires additional time to make such determination) following the submission of the matter to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, and such determination shall be final and binding upon Purchaser and Seller. Purchaser and Seller will each bear fifty percent (50%) of the fees, charges and expenses of the Settlement Accountant. (c) In the event that the Final Net Worth Amount is greater than the Target Net Worth Amount, such excess is referred to herein as the "Excess Net Worth Amount". (d) In the event that the Final Net Worth Amount is less than the Target Net Worth Amount, such deficiency is referred to herein as the "Net Worth Deficiency".
