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.
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.
Adjustment Amount (a) Schedule 2.16 sets forth a sample calculation of the Adjustment Amount and the Target Adjustment Amount as of the Balance Sheet Date (the “Sample Closing Statement”), including the asset, liability and other line items and accounting principles used in such calculation, and assuming that all of such asset and liability line items that constitute Mallinckrodt Assets or Mallinckrodt Liabilities under this Agreement will be transferred to Mallinckrodt as of the Distribution.
(b) Within sixty (60) days after the Distribution Date, Mallinckrodt shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Covidien a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) the Adjustment Amount and the calculation of the Adjustment Amount and (ii) the Target Adjustment Amount and the calculation of the Target Adjustment Amount. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, including the use of the same line items and line item entries, set forth on and used in the preparation of the Sample Closing Statement; provided, however, that assets newly acquired and liabilities newly incurred following the date of the Sample Closing Statement which cannot be appropriately placed in line items previously used by Mallinckrodt, but that constitute Mallinckrodt Assets or Mallinckrodt Liabilities, will also be included to the extent consistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles.
(c) Within thirty (30) days following receipt by Covidien of the Closing Statement, Covidien shall deliver written notice to Mallinckrodt of any dispute Covidien has with respect to the preparation or content of the Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided, however, that if Covidien does not deliver any Dispute Notice to Mallinckrodt within such thirty (30)-day period, the Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. Any Dispute Notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for any dispute included therein, the amounts involved and Covidien’s determination of the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) and (ii) include only disagreements based on the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) not being calculated properly in accordance with this Agreement or containing mathematical errors. Upon receipt by Mallinckrodt of a Dispute Notice, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute set forth therein. If Mallinckrodt and Covidien, such good faith effort notwithstanding, fail to resolve any such dispute within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt by Mallinckrodt of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), then Mallinckrodt and Covidien jointly shall engage, within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, Ernst & Young LLP or, if Ernst & Young LLP is unavailable or conflicted, another nationally recognized major accounting firm selected jointly by Covidien and Mallinckrodt (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve any such dispute. If Ernst & Young LLP is unavailable or conflicted and Covidien and Mallinckrodt are unable to agree on the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of Covidien and Mallinckrodt shall select a nationally recognized major accounting firm, and the two (2) firms will mutually select a third nationally recognized major accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm. As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than fifteen (15) days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall each prepare and submit a presentation detailing each Party’s complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue still in dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm. Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall cause the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not more than thirty (30) days following such presentations, make a final determination, binding on the Parties, of the appropriate amount of each of the line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice. With respect to each disputed line item, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Covidien or Mallinckrodt, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts set forth by Mallinckrodt in the Closing Statement or by Covidien in the Dispute Notice, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether any determination of the Adjustment Amount and/or the Target Adjustment Amount (as applicable) was properly calculated in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, and the Independent Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination, including any determination as to whether GAAP was followed, to the extent GAAP is inconsistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by Covidien and Mallinckrodt. All determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error.
(d) For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.16, Mallinckrodt and Covidien shall cooperate with and make available to each other and their respective Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, in each case, to the extent related to the Mallinckrodt Assets, Mallinckrodt Liabilities or Mallinckrodt Business, and shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.
(e) If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), is greater than the Target Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), by at least $20 million, then Mallinckrodt shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to the difference from the first dollar (i.e., without regard to the $20 million threshold) to Covidien by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Covidien to Mallinckrodt. If the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), is less than the Target Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.16(c), by at least $20 million, then Covidien shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to the difference from the first dollar (i.e., without regard to the $20 million threshold) to Mallinckrodt by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Mallinckrodt to Covidien. Any such payment pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) is to be made within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Adjustment Amount and the Target Adjustment Amount have been finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.16.
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".

The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles. The Parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Estimated Closing Statement is to estimate the amounts of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt, Transaction Expenses, Closing Taxes, Closing Transaction Tax Deductions and the Closing Adjustment Amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles.

In furtherance of Vista Outdoor’s preparation of the Estimated Closing Statement, Vista Outdoor shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments provided to the Draft Estimated Closing Statement by Parent at least one Business Day prior to delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement.
(c) Within ten (10) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, Vista Outdoor shall prepare and deliver to Parent a good faith non-binding, advisory draft of the Estimated Closing Statement, including reasonably detailed schedules with respect to the determination thereof to support the estimates set forth therein (an “Advisory Estimated Closing Statement”), assuming, for purposes of creating such Advisory Estimated Closing Statement, a Reference Time of 11:59 p.m. New York City time on September 30, 2024. Within ten (10) Business Days following October 31, 2024, Vista Outdoor shall prepare and deliver to Parent, an Advisory Estimated Closing Statement assuming, for purposes of creating such Advisory Estimated Closing Statement, a Reference Time of 11:59 p.m. New York City time on October 31, 2024. In furtherance of Vista Outdoor’s preparation of the Draft Estimated Closing Statement and the Estimated Closing Statement, Vista Outdoor shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments provided to the Advisory Estimated Closing Statements by Parent at least one (1) Business Day prior to delivery of the Draft Estimated Closing Statement.
(d) As promptly as practicable, and in any event within the later of (x) thirty (30) days following the Closing Date and (y) five (5) Business Days prior to the consummation of the Revelyst Merger (if such merger is consummated) (the later of (x) and (y), the “Closing Statement Deadline”), Vista Outdoor and Revelyst shall cooperate in good faith and jointly prepare a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth their joint good faith calculation of (i) Closing Cash, (ii) Closing Working Capital, (iii) Closing Debt, (iv) Transaction Expenses, (v) Closing Taxes, (vi) Closing Transaction Tax Deductions and (vii) the Closing Adjustment Amount, in each case, together with reasonably detailed schedules with respect to the determination thereof to support the calculations set forth in the Closing Statement. The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles. The Parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Closing Statement is to measure and determine the amount of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt, Transaction Expenses, Closing Taxes, Closing Transaction Tax Deductions and the Closing Adjustment Amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles. Each of Vista Outdoor and Revelyst shall execute the Closing Statement to certify the calculations set forth therein and upon such certification the Closing Statement shall become final and binding upon the Parties; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that Vista Outdoor and Revelyst do not agree upon and execute the Closing Statement by the Closing Statement Deadline, then the Estimated Closing Statement shall be deemed to be the Closing Statement for all purposes under this Agreement and neither Party nor their respective Affiliates shall have any further obligation pursuant to this Section 2.06.
(e) In connection with the preparation of the Closing Statement, Vista Outdoor shall, subject to reasonable advance written request (email being sufficient), provide Revelyst and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours, and in such a manner as to not interfere with the normal operations of Vista Outdoor and each other member of the Vista Outdoor Group, to the Records and relevant advisors (subject to the execution of any required customary access letters), personnel and properties of Vista Outdoor and each other member of the Vista Outdoor Group to the extent reasonably relevant to the preparation of the Closing Statement; provided that Revelyst shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, keep any nonpublic information shared with it confidential.
(f) Within three (3) Business Days after the Closing Statement becomes final and binding upon the Parties in accordance with this Section 2.06, if the Closing Adjustment Amount is:
(i) greater than the Estimated Closing Adjustment Amount, then Vista Outdoor shall pay Revelyst an amount of cash equal to such difference;
(ii) less than the Estimated Closing Adjustment Amount, then Revelyst shall pay Vista Outdoor an amount of cash equal to such difference; or
(iii) equal to the Estimated Closing Adjustment Amount, then neither Party shall have any obligation to make a payment to the other Party in respect thereof.
(g) Each Party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 2.06 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these agreements, the other Party would not have entered into this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party. Accordingly, if a Party fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.06 (such Party, the “Defaulting Party”), and, in order to obtain payment of such amount, the other Party commences a legal action which results in an order against the Defaulting Party for such amount, or any portion thereof, the Defaulting Party shall pay to the other Party such other Party’s out-of-pocket, reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with such legal action, together with interest on such due and unpaid amounts pursuant to this Section 2.06 at a rate equal to (i) the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such amount was required to be paid plus (ii) 2% through the date such payment was actually received.
(h) Vista Outdoor agrees that, from the Closing Date through the date that the Closing Adjustment Amount is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.06, it shall not, and shall cause each other member of the Vista Outdoor Group not to, take any action with respect to any accounting books, records, policies or procedures on which the Closing Statement is based that would impede or delay the final determination of the Closing Adjustment Amount.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any investigation or examination conducted, or any knowledge possessed or acquired, by or on behalf of Vista Outdoor or Revelyst, the process set forth in this Section 2.06 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the Parties for any disputes related to the items required to be included or reflected in the calculation of Closing Cash, Closing Working Capital, Closing Debt, Transaction Expenses, Closing Taxes, Closing Transaction Tax Deductions and the Closing Adjustment Amount.
(j) Without the prior written consent of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, none of the time periods set forth in this Section 2.06 shall be extended or waived by any Party. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the closing of the Revelyst Merger, neither Olibre Parent, Revelyst nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall have any obligation with respect to this Section 2.06. Each Party agrees that Olibre Parent is a third party beneficiary of this Section 2.06(j).
(k) For the purposes of this Agreement:
Disputed Payments If a bona fide dispute arises with respect to any invoice, Purchaser shall not be deemed in default under the Agreement and the Parties shall not suspend the performance of their respective obligations hereunder, including payment of undisputed amounts owed hereunder. If an amount disputed by Purchaser is subsequently deemed to have been due pursuant to the applicable invoice, interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate on such amount from the date becoming past due under such invoice until the date paid.
Purchase Price Credit Adjustments If on any day:
(a) the Outstanding Balance of a Receivable purchased from any Originator is:
(i) reduced as a result of any defective or rejected or returned goods or services, any cash discounts, any volume discounts or any adjustment or otherwise by such Originator or any Affiliate thereof (other than as a result of a charge-off of such Receivable or cash Collections applied to such Receivable),
(ii) reduced or canceled as a result of a setoff in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction),
(iii) reduced on account of the obligation of such Originator or any Affiliate thereof to pay to the related Obligor any rebate or refund, or
(iv) less on the date of its sale then the amount reflected in the applicable Purchase Report, or
(b) any of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.1(i), (j), (l), (r), (s), (t), (u) and the second sentence of Section 2.1(q) hereof is not true when made or deemed made with respect to any such Receivable, then, in such event, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase Price Credit”) against the Purchase Price otherwise payable to the applicable Originator hereunder equal to (x) in the case of clauses (a)(i) – (iv) above, the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Outstanding Balance and the amount reflected in the applicable Purchase Report, as applicable, and (y) in the case of clause (b) above, the amount of the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable, which shall be reconveyed by the Buyer to the applicable Originator following receipt of such amount. If such Purchase Price Credit exceeds the Original Balance of the Receivables originated by the applicable Originator on any day, such Originator shall pay the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash immediately, provided that if the applicable Termination Date has not occurred, such Originator shall be allowed to deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under its Subordinated Note.
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.
Estimated Payments Commencing on the first day of the Term on which Additional Rent is due, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter during the Term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay Landlord all Additional Rent for:
a) Real estate taxes pursuant to Section 2 above,
b) Insurance premiums pursuant to Section 3 above,
c) HVAC maintenance pursuant to Section 5 above,
d) Common Area Charges pursuant to Section 4 above and
e) Water and common utility use pursuant to Section 14 below. On an annual basis, Landlord shall provide Tenant with (a) a statement of all actual Common Area Charges and insurance premiums incurred in the preceding calendar year and (b) a statement of all charges of real estate taxes assessed against the Property in the preceding fiscal year. If Tenant has made estimated payments of Additional Rent during such calendar/fiscal year in excess of the actual amount due, Landlord shall credit Tenant with any overpayment against the next Rent otherwise due. If the actual Additional Rent due exceeds the estimated payments made by Tenant during the preceding year, Tenant shall pay such amount due as Additional Rent within 15 business days after notice from Landlord. Any failure by Landlord to deliver such statements shall not constitute a default by Landlord or operate as a waiver of Landlord’s right to collect all or any portion of Additional Rent due pursuant to the terms of this Lease. If Additional Rent for any calendar year increases by more than five percent (5%) over Additional Rent for the immediately preceding calendar year, Tenant, within ninety (90) days after receiving Landlord’s statement of actual Additional Rent (inclusive of those which vary with occupancy) for a particular calendar year, shall have the right to provide Landlord with written notice (the “Review Notice”) of its intent to review Landlord’s books and records relating to the Additional Rent for such calendar year. Within a reasonable time after receipt of a timely Review Notice, Landlord shall make such books and records available to Tenant or Tenant’s agent for its review at either Landlord’s home office or at the office of the Building, provided that if Tenant retains an agent to review Landlord’s books and records for any calendar year, such agent must (i) be a CPA firm or an in-house accountant or finance department employee of Tenant, (ii) not be compensated on a contingency basis and (iii) execute a copy of a confidentiality agreement with respect to such review. Tenant shall be solely responsible for any and all costs, expenses and fees incurred by Tenant or Xxxxxx’s agent in connection with such review. If Tenant elects to review Xxxxxxxx’s books and records, within thirty (30) days after such books and records are made available to Tenant, Tenant shall have the right to give Landlord written notice stating in reasonable detail any objection to Xxxxxxxx’s statement of actual Additional Rent for such calendar year. If Tenant fails to give Landlord written notice of objection within such thirty (30) day period or fails to provide Landlord with a Review Notice within the ninety (90) day period provided above, Tenant shall be deemed to have approved Xxxxxxxx’s statement of Additional Rent in all respects and shall thereafter be barred from raising any claims with respect thereto. Upon Xxxxxxxx’s receipt of a timely objection notice from Xxxxxx, Landlord and Tenant shall work together in good faith to resolve the discrepancy between Xxxxxxxx’s statement and Xxxxxx’s review. If Landlord and Tenant determine that Additional Rent for the calendar year in question are less than reported, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a credit against future Rent in the amount of any overpayment by Tenant.
