Contingent Consideration. (a) The Vendors shall be entitled to be paid by the Purchaser the earn-out payments (the “Earn-Out Payments”), as additional consideration for the sale and transfer of the Purchased Shares, based on the achievement of the Earn-Out Milestones in accordance with the terms set out in Schedule 2.8.1(A). The Parties acknowledge that the Earn-Out Payments are intended to be adjustments to the Purchase Price of the Purchased Shares to reflect the underlying goodwill of the Business, the value of which cannot be accurately determined by the Parties on or before Closing Date.
(b) In addition, the Vendors shall be entitled to be paid by the Purchaser royalties and sharing payments (the “Royalties”), as additional consideration for the sale and transfer of the Purchased Shares, in accordance with the terms set out in Schedule 2.8.1(B), and as further delineated therein.
(c) The determination of whether any Earn-Out Payments or Royalties are payable shall be based on the terms of this Section 2.8, the applicable Schedule (2.8.1(a) or 2.8.1(b)) and the applicable terms of this Agreement.
(d) All Earn-Out Payments and Royalties due and owing to the Vendors shall only be payable in cash, such payment to be in US dollars.
(e) Any agreed Contingent Consideration shall be payable to the Paying Agent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Paying Agent, to the Purchaser, for distribution by the Paying Agent amongst the Vendors in accordance with their respective Designated Percentages.
(f) The Vendors’ Delegate shall invoice the Purchaser for any Earn-Out Payments and Royalties payable once the amount of any such Earn-Out Payments and/or Royalties have been finally determined in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8. If any portion of any Earn-Out Payments and/or Royalties remains to be determined by the Parties or is subject to dispute in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.8, the Parties acknowledge that the Vendors’ Delegate shall be entitled to issue an invoice for any portion of such Earn-Out Payments and/or Royalties that do not remain to be so determined. For the avoidance of doubt, the Vendors’ Delegate shall only invoice the Purchaser for the portion of any Earn-Out Payments or Royalties in dispute after such dispute is settled and the applicable portion of such Earn-Out Payment or Royalty is finally determined and failure to issue the invoice due to any dispute shall not prejudice the Vendors or the Vendors’ ...
Contingent Consideration. (a) Purchaser further agrees, in the event that the EBIT of Purchaser exceeds $2,000,000 in either of (i) the twelve month period immediately following the Closing Date ("Year One") or (ii) the twelve month period immediately following Year One ("Year Two"), to pay to Seller the additional sum of One Million ($1,000,000) Dollars (the "Contingent Consideration"). The Contingent Consideration shall be paid by Purchaser to Seller not later than thirty (30) days following the delivery to Seller of Purchaser's financial statements for Year One or Year Two, as the case may be. For purposes of verifying Purchaser's calculation of EBIT during Year One and/or Year Two, Purchaser shall permit Seller or its authorized agents after reasonable prior written notice to review, at Seller's expense, Purchaser's books of account during normal business hours; provided that, if Seller's audit reveals that EBIT was miscalculated by Purchaser and underreported to Seller by five percent (5%) or more, then Seller's costs and expenses of such audit shall be reimbursed by Purchaser within ten (10) days of submission from Seller to Purchaser of any invoices for such costs and expenses.
(b) It is the intent of the parties to develop a method of calculating EBIT of the Purchaser which will be equitable to both parties and which will not artificially increase or decrease the annual EBIT amounts. EBIT shall be computed using the same U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") used by Del in the preparation of its financial statements. For purposes of calculating EBIT hereunder, EBIT will be costed using the FIFO method. For purposes of this Section 2.4, EBIT Products shall include any products sold by Purchaser which are currently sold by the Gendex Division, products sold under the Distribution Agreement (as herein defined), and any comparable or similar new products subsequently developed by Purchaser (hereinafter "EBIT Products"); provided, however, that existing products transferred to Purchaser from its affiliates shall not be included in calculating EBIT so long as the revenues and related costs of any such products transferred to Purchaser shall be determined in a manner consistent with how Purchaser determines the revenues and related costs of its other products. Sales of EBIT Products to other business units of Del shall be recorded at the time of shipment by Purchaser to Del's other business units. The selling price of EBIT Products sold or transferred by Purchaser...

(i) The amount of the Contingent Consideration shall be $0 in the event that the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2006 of $6,000,000, and $3,500,000 if the Companies achieve EBITDA in 2006 of at least $8,000,000, and the Contingent Consideration of up to $3,500,000 shall be prorated for any EBITDA in 2006 between $6,000,000 and $8,000,000. Any Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(i) (the "2006 Contingent Consideration") will be payable on or before February 15, 2007.
(ii) In the event that the 2006 Contingent Consideration, if any, equals less than $3,500,000, the difference between $3,500,000 and the 2006 Contingent Consideration (the "Balance") may be earned as follows: the amount of Contingent Consideration shall be $0 in the event that the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2007 of $7,500,000 or less, the full amount of the Balance if the Target Companies achieve EBITDA in 2007 of at least $10,000,000, the Contingent Consideration, up to the full amount of the Balance, shall be prorated for any EBITDA in 2007 between $7,500,000 and $10,000,000. Any Contingent Consideration payable pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(ii) (the "2007 Contingent Consideration") will be payable on or before February 15, 2008. For purposes of clarity, if the Target Companies fail to achieve at least $4,000,000 in EBITDA in 2005, no Contingent Consideration shall be payable whatsoever.
