Inventory Adjustment (a) No more than three (3) days prior to Closing, a physical count of all saleable inventory, raw materials, castings, grates and other ancillary products included in the Seller Assets (the “Closing Inventory”) shall be carried out at the Designated Plants by representatives of each of the Seller and the Purchaser, which physical count shall be carried out in a manner mutually agreed upon by the parties. For the purposes of this Section 3.1(a), “saleable” inventory shall mean (i) finished goods, which are of first quality and saleable in the ordinary course without discount, and (ii) all raw materials, castings, grates and other ancillary products that are useable in the production of pipe and precast products or otherwise suitable for resale, unless obsolete, damaged or cosmetically impaired. The representatives of each of the Purchaser and the Seller shall attempt, in good faith, to resolve any disputes which may arise during the physical count of the inventory. Upon completion of the physical count of the inventory, the representatives of each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall agree upon and execute a statement setting forth either (i) the final physical count of the inventory in the event that the representatives agree on such final physical count or (ii) the final physical count of the inventory of each of the Seller and the Purchaser in the event that the representatives were unable to resolve in good faith any disputes during the physical inventory count, noting such items of dispute (the “Disputed Seller Inventory Items”) therein. The value of Closing Inventory shall be determined in accordance with the Inventory Methodology. In the event that there are any Disputed Seller Inventory Items, such Disputed Seller Inventory Items shall be resolved following the Closing pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 3.2 and the final physical count agreed to by the parties or resolved pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be final and binding on the parties, including for purposes of determining the Closing Inventory.

Closing Date Balance Sheet The Buyer shall cause the Company to provide Sellers' Accountants with full and complete access to the books and records of the Company and to otherwise cooperate with and assist Sellers' Accountants in the preparation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet. Unless Buyer, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Date Balance Sheet, notifies Sellers' Representative in writing that Buyer objects to the determination of the Closing Date Stockholders' Equity, as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, and specifies the basis for such objection, which objection shall not include any dispute relating to or arising out of the Environmental Remediation Accrual or the Deferred Compensation Accrual, and the amount or amounts in dispute, the Closing Date Balance Sheet shall become final and binding upon the parties for purposes of this Agreement as of the day following the end of such thirty (30) day period, which shall be the Closing Date Balance Sheet Determination Date. If Buyer notifies Sellers' Representative of its objection, and if Sellers and Buyer, together with their respective advisors, are unable to resolve any such objections within fifteen (15) days after any such notice has been given, the dispute shall be submitted to the Accounting Firm, which shall be instructed to resolve the dispute expeditiously. The Accounting Firm shall make a final binding determination as to the matter or matters in dispute, and the date of such determination shall be the Closing Date Balance Sheet Determination Date. Buyer agrees to cooperate, and agrees to cause the Company to cooperate, with Sellers (and Sellers' authorized representatives), and Sellers agree to cooperate with Buyer and the Company (and their respective authorized representatives), in order to resolve any and all matters in dispute as soon as reasonably possible. The Sellers shall pay the fees, costs and expenses of the Sellers Accountants. Buyer shall pay the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm, unless the difference between (x) the proposed Closing Date Stockholders' Equity included on the Closing Date Balance Sheet delivered by the Sellers and (y) the determination by the Accounting Firm of the Closing Date Stockholders' Equity results in a reduction to the Purchase Price under Section 3.3.2 hereof, in which case the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid by the Sellers.
Estimated Closing Statement Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), certified in writing by an executive officer of the Seller, setting forth, in reasonable detail, (i) the Seller’s good faith calculation, together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation, of the estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital”) and the components thereof; (ii) the Estimated Working Capital Increase or Estimated Working Capital Decrease, as the case may be; and (iii) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price (the resulting amount, the “Estimated Purchase Price”), in each case calculated pursuant to the Accounting Principles. The Seller and the Owner, during the period from the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement through the Closing Date, shall, and shall cause their respective managers, officers, employees, accountants, and other relevant advisors to, provide the Buyer (and its auditors, advisors, counsel, and other representatives) reasonable access to the books and records, outside accounting firm, working papers (subject to the execution of customary access letters), personnel, and facilities of the Seller in order to complete their review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein, and the Seller shall consider in good faith any comments made by the Buyer to the Estimated Closing Statement. The Buyer’s failure to make any comment regarding, or to dispute any amount included in, the Estimated Closing Statement shall not limit, or have any effect on, the Buyer’s rights pursuant to Section 2.05(b) to conduct a review of the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Estimated Working Capital Increase or Estimated Working Capital Decrease, as the case may be, and the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price. The Seller and the Owner shall cooperate with the Buyer’s review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the Buyer and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith prior to the Closing to resolve any reasonable objection the Buyer may have to the estimates or calculations contained therein.
Post-Closing Items (a) The Loan Parties shall take all necessary actions to satisfy the items described on Schedule 5.16 within the applicable periods of time specified in such Schedule (or such longer periods as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion).
Closing Balance Sheet (a) Within thirty (30) days following the Closing, the Sellers and Company shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Buyer an unaudited balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”). The Company and Sellers shall cause the Closing Balance Sheet to be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistent with and using the same accounting principles, policies and methods as in the audited financial statements described in Section 3.17 with contract estimates at completion (“EACs”) and estimates to complete (“ETCs”) determined on a basis consistent with the method used for determination of the Company’s audited financial statements. Sellers shall bear the cost of preparing the Closing Balance Sheet. If the Tangible Net Worth of the Company as of the Closing Date as reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet, taking into account payment of the Company Pre-Closing Liabilities, is less than $80,000, then the Escrow Deposit shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis to the extent of any such deficiency. The amount by which the Tangible Net Worth of the Company as of the Closing Date is less than $80,000 taking into account payment of the Company Pre-Closing Liabilities, is hereafter referred to as the “Balance Sheet Adjustment.” The amount of any Balance Sheet Adjustment shall be deducted from the Escrow Deposit and paid to Buyer within two (2) days following determination of the “Final Closing Balance Sheet” (as defined in Section 2.3(b)), prior to release of the Escrow Deposit to the Sellers. The remainder of the Escrow Deposit shall thereafter promptly be paid by Escrow Agent to the Sellers in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. To the extent that Buyer decides not to pay off the DCAA liability as described in Section 2.2(a)(iii), then such amount shall be deemed paid off for purposes of determining the Closing Balance Sheet hereunder.
Closing Statement (a) At least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall submit to Buyer a written statement of estimated Current Assets and Current Liabilities as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Estimated Closing Statement") containing the Company's good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital Amount (the "Estimated Net Working Capital Amount"), which shall reflect the items required to be set forth in, and be prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of, the Closing Statement, in each case in accordance with Section 4.6(b); provided, however, that for purposes of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, the parties hereto agree that 50% of the amount of Fuel Sensor Damages (x) actually expended by Parent or the Company from March 1, 2011 through the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date and (y) accrued as current liabilities on the Estimated Closing Statement, shall be added as a credit to the estimated Net Working Capital Amount set forth on the Estimated Closing Statement. Commencing with the Company's delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement to Buyer, Buyer shall have reasonable access to the books and records and personnel of the Company and the opportunity to consult with the Company for purposes of confirming or disputing the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If Buyer shall disagree, in good faith, with any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, then Buyer and the Company shall work, in good faith, to reach agreement on such disputed items and the amounts as agreed to by Buyer and the Company shall constitute the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer's agreement with the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount (or any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount) shall not foreclose, prevent, limit or preclude any rights or remedy of Buyer set forth in this Agreement. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is more than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount.
Final Closing Statement During the thirty (30) days following the date upon which Seller received the Notice of Disagreement, Seller and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to all matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. If at the end of such thirty (30) day period (or earlier by mutual agreement to arbitrate), Buyer and Seller have not reached agreement on such matters, the matters that remain in dispute may be submitted to an arbitrator (the "Closing Statement Arbitrator") by either Party for review and resolution. The Closing Statement Arbitrator shall be a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller in writing. The hearing date will be scheduled by the Closing Statement Arbitrator as soon as reasonably practicable, and shall be conducted on a confidential basis. Each Party shall, not later than seven days prior to the hearing date set by the Closing Statement Arbitrator, submit a brief with dollar figures for settlement of the disputes as to the amount of the Adjusted Purchase Price (together with a proposed Closing Statement that reflects such figures). The figures submitted need not be the figures discussed during prior conversations. The Closing Statement Arbitrator shall render a decision resolving the matters in dispute (which decision shall include a written statement of findings and conclusions) within three Business Days after the conclusion of the hearing, unless the Parties reach agreement prior thereto and withdraw the dispute from arbitration. The Closing Statement Arbitrator shall provide to the Parties explanations in writing of the reasons for its decisions regarding the Adjusted Purchase Price and shall issue the Final Closing Statement reflecting such decisions. The decision of the Closing Statement Arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties. The cost of any arbitration (including the fees and expenses of the Closing Statement Arbitrator) pursuant to this Section 3.4(b) shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. The fees and disbursements of Seller's independent auditors incurred in connection with the procedures performed with respect to the Closing Statement shall be borne by Seller and the fees and disbursements of Buyer's independent auditors incurred in connection with their preparation of the Notice of Disagreement shall be borne by Buyer. As used in this Agreement, the term "Final Closing Statement" shall mean the revised Closing Statement described in Section 3.4(a), as prepared by Seller and as may be subsequently adjusted to reflect any subsequent written agreement between the Parties with respect thereto, or if submitted to the Closing Statement Arbitrator, the Closing Statement issued by the Closing Statement Arbitrator.

The accounts and notes receivable of the Company which were thereafter added and which will be reflected on the Final Closing Balance Sheet are good and collectible in the ordinary course of business at the aggregate amounts recorded in its books of account, less the amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts reflected thereon (which allowance was established on a basis consistent with prior practice), and are not subject to offsets. The inventories reflected on the Audited and Unaudited Balance Sheets, and thereafter added, as reflected on the Closing Date Balance Sheet, consist of items of a quality and quantity usable or saleable within one year (except as set forth on Schedule 5.7) in the ordinary course of business, except for obsolete materials, slow-moving items, materials of below standard quality and not readily marketable items, all of which have been written down to net realizable value or adequately reserved against on the books and records of the Company. To the extent there is inventory not listed on Schedule 5.7 of a quality and quantity not usable or saleable in the ordinary course of business within one year, in lieu of a claim for indemnification, Buyer shall sell and the Selling Shareholders shall purchase such items of inventory at the value carried on the Final Closing Balance Sheet. All inventories not written off are stated at the lower of cost or market.
