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.
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 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.
Operations Since Balance Sheet Date (a) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.5(A), since the Balance Sheet Date, there has been:
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
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions There is no transaction, arrangement or other relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and an unconsolidated or other off-balance sheet entity which is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (other than as disclosed therein).
Post-Closing Capitalization At, and immediately after, the Closing, the authorized capitalization, and the number of issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company and the Parent, on a fully-diluted basis, as indicated on a schedule to be delivered by the Parties at or prior to the Closing, shall be acceptable to the Parent in its sole and absolute discretion.
Final Closing At the Final Closing, the Sellers shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Buyer:
Pro Forma Balance Sheet; Financial Statements The Lenders shall have received (i) the Pro Forma Balance Sheet, (ii) audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the most recently ended fiscal year and (iii) unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for each fiscal quarter ended after the date of the latest applicable financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph as to which such financial statements are available.
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.
