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.
Final Purchase Price Within 120 days after the Closing Date (provided, however, and notwithstanding the foregoing, not before ninety (90) days after the Closing Date), Seller Representative will prepare and deliver to Buyer, in accordance with this Agreement, a proposed statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth each adjustment to the Purchase Price to be made pursuant to Section 2.04, along with supporting documentation reasonably necessary to support Sellers’ calculations and all back up invoices, statements and other materials, and the resulting final Purchase Price (as such final Purchase Price is agreed by Buyer and Seller Representative or determined pursuant to this Section 2.06, the “Final Purchase Price”). Within 30 days after receipt of the preliminary Final Settlement Statement, Buyer shall return a written report containing any proposed changes to the preliminary Final Settlement Statement (a “Dispute Notice”) and/or request additional supporting documentation or information. Buyer and Seller Representative agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to finalize such post-Closing adjustments no later than 180 days after the Closing Date (the date such agreement is made or such adjustments are otherwise determined pursuant to this Section 2.06, the “Final Settlement Date”). In the event that (a) the Closing Purchase Price, as determined pursuant to Section 2.05, is more than the Final Purchase Price, within two Business Days after the Final Settlement Date, Sellers shall pay to Buyer the amount of such difference, or (b) the Closing Purchase Price, as determined pursuant to Section 2.05, is less than the Final Purchase Price, within two Business Days after the Final Settlement Date, Buyer shall pay to Sellers the amount of such difference, in either event by wire transfer or other immediately available funds to the account notified by Seller Representative or Buyer, as the case may be. If Seller Representative and Buyer are unable to resolve the matters addressed in the Dispute Notice within 210 days after the Closing Date, each of Buyer and Seller Representative shall, within ten Business Days after such deadline, summarize its position with regard to such dispute in a written document of 20 pages or less (exclusive of exhibits) and submit such summaries to a nationally or internationally recognized accounting firm with expertise in the oil and gas industry and that is otherwise reasonably acceptable to and mutually accepted by Buyer and Seller Representative, but who has not worked as an employee or outside counsel or consultant for any Party or its Affiliates during the five year period preceding the arbitration or have any financial interest in the dispute, (the “Accounting Arbitrator”), together with the Dispute Notice, the Final Settlement Statement and any other documentation such Party may desire to submit. Within 30 days after receiving Buyer’s and Seller Representative’s respective submissions, the Accounting Arbitrator shall render a decision choosing either Seller Representative’s position or Buyer’s position with respect to each matter addressed in the Parties’ respective submissions, based on the materials described above. Any decision rendered by the Accounting Arbitrator pursuant hereto shall be final, conclusive and binding on Sellers and Buyer. The costs of such Accounting Arbitrator shall be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by Sellers. The Accounting Arbitrator shall act as an expert for the limited purpose of determining the specific Final Purchase Price dispute presented to it, shall be limited to the procedures set forth in this Section 2.06, shall not have the powers of an arbitrator, shall not consider any other disputes or matters, and may not award damages, interest, costs, attorney’s fees, expenses or penalties to any Party.

Final Settlement Statement On or before 120 days after Closing (the “Final Settlement Date”), a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) will be prepared by Buyer, based on actual income and expenses and which takes into account all final adjustments made to the Purchase Price, excluding all Title Defect and related title issues subject to pending dispute under Section 10.2, and shows the resulting final Purchase Price (the “Final Price”). The Final Settlement Statement shall set forth the actual proration of the amounts required by this Agreement. As soon as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days, after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, Whitehorse, on behalf of the Whitehorse Sellers, and Siltstone II, on behalf of the Siltstone Sellers, shall return to Buyer a joint written report containing any proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement and an explanation of any such changes and the reasons therefor (the “Dispute Notice”). Any changes not so specified in the Dispute Notice shall be deemed waived and Buyer’s determinations with respect to all such elements of the Final Settlement Statement that are not addressed specifically in the Dispute Notice shall prevail. If Whitehorse and Siltstone II fail to timely deliver a Dispute Notice to Buyer containing changes Sellers propose to be made to the Final Settlement Statement, the Final Settlement Statement as delivered by Buyer will be deemed to be correct and will be final and binding on all Parties and not subject to further audit or arbitration. If the Final Price set forth in the Final Settlement Statement is mutually agreed upon by Sellers and Buyer, the Final Settlement Statement and the Final Price shall be final and binding on the Parties (other than with respect to amounts not accounted for therein or settled thereby). Within ten (10) days after the earlier of (a) the expiration of Sellers’ thirty (30)-day review period without delivery of any written report or (b) the date on which the Parties finally determine the Final Price or the Accounting Arbitrator finally determines the disputed matters, as applicable, (i) Buyer shall pay to Sellers the amount by which the Final Price exceeds the Closing Cash Payment, or (ii) Sellers shall pay to Buyer the amount by which the Closing Cash Payment exceeds the Final Price; provided that, if applicable, any amount payable by one Party to the other under this Section 3.5 shall first be satisfied out of the portion of the Defect Escrow Amount the owning Party is entitled to at such time, and then, if applicable, the owning Party shall pay to the owed Party any outstanding amounts. All amounts paid pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered in United States currency by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in writing by the relevant Party.
Deposit of Fundamental Change Purchase Price No later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided herein) an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Fundamental Change Purchase Date) sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price, of all the Securities or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of any deposits of cash made pursuant to this Section 5.04. If on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date the Paying Agent holds cash sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Securities that Holders have elected to require the Company to purchase in accordance with Section 5.01, then, as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, (a) such Securities will cease to be outstanding and interest, including Additional Interest if any, will cease to accrue thereon and (b) all other rights of Holders in respect of such Securities will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Purchase Price upon delivery or transfer of such Security). This will be the case whether book-entry transfer of the Securities has been made or the Securities have been delivered to the Paying Agent, as the case may be.

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.

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.

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.
