Closing Adjustment (a) The Company shall deliver to Buyer no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date a statement that sets forth the Company’s good faith estimate of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Estimated Balance Sheet”), which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles; (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount; (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price (the “Estimated Purchase Price”) and the Cash Consideration (the “Estimated Cash Consideration”), together with reasonably detailed calculations demonstrating each component thereof and such documentation and access to the Company’s Books and Records as is reasonably requested by Buyer to permit Buyer to review the calculation of amounts set forth therein. Buyer shall have the ability to review and provide comments to (i) – (vi) above and the Company shall consider in good faith Buyer’s comments.
(b) No later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Members’ Representative a statement that sets forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the balance sheet of the Company as of the Measurement Time (the “Closing Date Balance Sheet”) which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, (ii) the Closing Date Net Working Capital and, based thereon, the Adjustment Amount, (iii) the Company Cash and, based thereon, the amount of the Company Cash Deficiency (if any), (iv) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, (v) the Company Transaction Expenses and, based thereon, (vi) the Purchase Price and the Cash Consideration, together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations demonstrating each component thereof (the “Closing Date Statement”).
(c) The Members’ Representative shall have thirty (30) days after delivery of the Closing Date Statement in which to notify Buyer in writing (such notice, a “Closing Date Dispute Notice”) of any discrepancy in, or disagreement with, the items reflected on the Closing Date Statement (and specifying the amount of each item in dispute and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each such discrepancy or disagreement), and upon agreement by Buyer regarding the adjustment requested by the Members’ Representative, an appropriate adjustment shall be made thereto. If the Members’ Representative does not deliver a Closing Date Dispute Notice to Buyer during such thirty (30)-day period, the Closing Date Statement shall be deemed to be accepted in the form presented to the Members’ Representative. If the Members’ Representative timely delivers a Closing Date Dispute Notice and Buyer and the Members’ Representative do not agree, within thirty (30) days after timely delivery of the Closing Date Dispute Notice, to resolve any discrepancy or disagreement therein, either the Members’ Representative or Buyer may submit the discrepancy or disagreement for review and final determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, it being understood that in making such determination, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The review by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited solely to the discrepancies and disagreements set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice and a single written submission to the Independent Accounting Firm by each of Buyer and the Members’ Representative with respect to such discrepancies and disagreements (which shall also be provided to the other party). The resolution of such discrepancies and disagreements and the determination of the Closing Date Net Working Capital and the resulting Adjustment Amount, the Company Cash and the resulting Company Cash Deficiency (if any), the Closing Indebtedness Amount, and the Company Transaction Expenses by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be (i) in writing, (ii) made in accordance with the Accounting Principles, definitions and relevant provisions of this Agreement, (iii) with respect to any specific discrepancy or disagreement, no greater than the higher amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative, as the case may be, and no lower than the lower amount calculated by Buyer or the Members’ Representative as the case may be, (iv) made as promptly as practicable after the submission of such discrepancies and disagreements to the Independent Accounting Firm (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date of submission), and (v) final and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns for all purposes hereof, and not subject to collateral attack for any reason absent manifest error or fraud. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated to and borne by Buyer and the Members (in accordance with their respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions, which may be paid out of the Representative Expense Fund to the extent thereof) based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accounting Firm’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the total items in dispute as originally submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. For example, should the aggregate value of the items in dispute equal $1,000 and the Independent Accounting Firm awards $600 in favor of the Members’ Representative’s position and $400 in favor of Buyer, then sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by Buyer and forty percent (40%) of such costs would be borne by the Members’ Representative (on behalf of the Members). Within five (5) Business Days of the resolution of all matters set forth in the Closing Date Dispute Notice, by mutual agreement of Buyer and the Members’ Representative or by the Independent Accounting Firm, Buyer shall prepare a revised version of the Closing Date Statement including an updated Purchase Price and Cash Consideration (the “Final Purchase Price”) reflecting such resolution and shall deliver copies thereof to the Members’ Representative, and such revised version (and all amounts set forth therein) shall be considered final and binding on the parties (the “Final Closing Date Statement”).
(d) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to the Payment Agent for distribution to the Members on behalf of TopCo in connection with the Redemption the entire amount of such difference in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, and Buyer and the Members’ Representative shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release to the Payment Agent the entire balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, in each case for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions. If the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, the Members’ Representative (on behalf of each Member) and Buyer shall instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the entire amount of such difference to Buyer out of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund, with any remaining balance of the Purchase Price Escrow Fund to be paid by the Escrow Agent to the Payment Agent (for further distribution to the Members in accordance with the applicable Consideration Spreadsheet and such Members’ Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions); provided, however, that if the amount payable to Buyer under this Section 1.9(d) exceeds the Purchase Price Escrow Fund (a “Purchase Price Excess”), Buyer shall have the right to require the Members, severally and not jointly, in each case based on their then current respective Purchase Price Escrow Pro Rata Portions to pay to Buyer the Purchase Price Excess in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds. If the Final Purchase Price is equal to the Estimated Purchase Price, there shall not be any adjustment.
(e) Any payments made pursuant to Section 1.9 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.
Cost of Living Adjustment For each year following the Initial Term, unless the parties shall otherwise agree and provided that the service mix and volumes remain consistent as previously provided in the Initial Term, the total fee for all services shall equal the fee that would be charged for the same services based on a fee rate (as reflected in a fee rate schedule) increased by the percentage increase for the twelve-month period of such previous calendar year of the CPI-W (defined below) or, in the event that publication of such index is terminated, any successor or substitute index, appropriately adjusted, acceptable to both parties. As used herein, “CPI-W” shall mean the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (Area: Boston-Brockton-Nashua, MA-NH-ME-CT; Base Period: 1982-84=100), as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Post-Closing Adjustment (a) Promptly after the Closing Date, and in any event not later than twenty (20) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth Seller’s good faith calculation of (i) Closing Working Capital, (ii) Closing Indebtedness, (iii) Transaction Expenses, (iv) Closing Cash, and (v) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price, together with reasonable supporting detail and documentation. The Post-Closing Statement shall be accompanied by a certificate of an executive officer of Seller stating that the Post-Closing Statement has been prepared in accordance with this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles (to the extent applicable) and the definitions set forth herein. Purchaser shall give Seller and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to the premises, books and records, and appropriate personnel of the Business, the Conveyed Companies and Purchaser for purposes of the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement in accordance with this Section 2.4(a), and Purchaser shall instruct its personnel (including the Transferred Employees) and Representatives to reasonably cooperate with, and promptly and completely respond to all reasonable requests and inquiries of, Seller and its Representatives. Upon execution of a customary access letter if required by the applicable Party’s outside accountants, each Party and its Representatives shall have reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to all relevant work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared by the other Party or its Representatives (including its outside accountants) to the extent related to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness and/or Transaction Expenses in any respect. Following delivery of the Post-Closing Statement, Seller shall afford Purchaser and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to Sellers’ and its Affiliates’ appropriate personnel involved in the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement.
(b) Purchaser and Purchaser’s accountants and financial and other advisors may make inquiries of Seller and/or Seller’s accountants regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Post-Closing Statement arising in the course of Purchaser’s review, and Seller shall instruct its personnel and Representatives to reasonably cooperate with, and promptly and completely respond to all reasonable requests and inquiries of, Purchaser and its Representatives. Purchaser shall complete its review of the Post-Closing Statement within seventy-five (75) days after the delivery thereof to Purchaser. In no event later than the conclusion of such seventy-five (75) day period, Purchaser may submit to Seller a letter regarding its concurrence or disagreement with the accuracy of the Post-Closing Statement; provided that any such letter must specify (i) the items of the Post-Closing Statement with which Purchaser disagrees, (ii) the adjustments that Purchaser proposes to be made to the Post-Closing Statement (each, a “Disputed Item”) and (iii) the specific amount of such disagreement and all reasonable supporting detail and documentation and calculations (the “Purchaser Objection Statement”); and provided, further, that Purchaser may only disagree with the Post-Closing Statement to the extent Purchaser claims Seller did not prepare the Post-Closing Statement in a manner consistent with the Accounting Principles (to the extent applicable) or the terms of this Agreement (including the definitions set forth herein). If Purchaser does not deliver a Purchaser Objection Statement before the conclusion of such seventy-five (75) day period, the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding upon the Parties and Purchaser shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts contained in the Post-Closing Statement. If Purchaser does deliver a Purchaser Objection Statement, following such delivery, Seller and Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to resolve promptly any disagreement as to the computation of any item in the Post-Closing Statement. Any items as to which there is no disagreement shall be deemed agreed. If a resolution of such disagreement has not been effected within ten (10) days (or longer, as mutually agreed by the Parties) after delivery of the Purchaser Objection Statement, then Seller and Purchaser shall execute a customary engagement letter with the Accountant and submit any unresolved Disputed
Closing Adjustments (a) No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Target Company will deliver to Holdings the Target Company’s calculation of the Merger Consideration, including the Company’s good-faith estimate of each of: (i) the Closing Working Capital and the resulting Working Capital Adjustment, (ii) the amount of outstanding Indebtedness as of the Closing and the resulting Indebtedness Adjustment, and (iii) the total amount of Transaction Expenses that are incurred and unpaid by the Target Company as of the Closing and the resulting Transaction Expense Adjustment, in reasonable detail (the “Closing Statement”). Such estimates will be based on the Target Company’s books and records, the best estimate of the management of the Target Company and other information then available and will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Holdings will have the right to review the Closing Statement and such supporting documentation or data of the Target Company as Holdings may reasonably request. If Holdings does not agree with the Closing Statement, the Target Company and Holdings will negotiate in good faith to mutually agree on an acceptable Closing Statement no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and the Target Company will consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that Holdings may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that the failure to include in the Closing Statement any changes proposed by Holdings, or the acceptance by Holdings of the Closing Statement, or the consummation of the Closing, will not limit or otherwise affect Holdings’ remedies under this Agreement, including Holdings’ right to include such changes or other changes in the Closing Statement, or constitute an acknowledgment by Holdings of the accuracy of the Closing Statement; provided, further, that the failure of Holdings and the Seller Representative to reach such mutual agreement will not give any party the right to terminate this Agreement or otherwise fail to close the transactions contemplated hereunder.
Tax Adjustment Tenant shall pay to Landlord or Landlord's agent as Additional Rent, an amount ("Tax Adjustment Amount") equal to Tenant's Proportionate Share of the amount of Taxes incurred with respect to each Calendar Year plus Tenant's pro rata share of the special allocation of Taxes to occupied premises if the last sentence of Section 3A(iii) is applicable for such Calendar Year. The Tax Adjustment Amount with respect to each Calendar Year shall be paid in monthly installments during such Calendar Year in an amount estimated from time to time by Landlord and communicated by written notice to Tenant. If Taxes for any Calendar Year are payable in whole or in part before the end of such Calendar Year, Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after the written request of Landlord, promptly pay its Proportionate Share of such payment as a special installment, after deducting installments previously paid by Tenant under this Section 3D for such Calendar Year. Following the final payment of Taxes for each Calendar Year, Landlord shall cause the amount of the Tax Adjustment Amount for such Calendar Year to be computed and delivered to Tenant a statement of such amount plus a statement of all estimated installments paid by Tenant for such Calendar Year. Tenant shall pay to Landlord any deficiency shown by such statements within thirty (30) days after receipt of such statement. If the installments paid exceed the actual amount due (such excess is sometimes referred to herein as the "Taxes Credit Amount"), Landlord shall credit the Taxes Credit Amount against payments next due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder; provided that, if the Taxes Credit Amount exceeds the amount of payments next due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder, Landlord shall promptly pay Tenant the amount by which the Taxes Credit Amount exceeds the amount of payments next due to Landlord from Tenant hereunder. The amount of any refund of Taxes received by Landlord shall be credited against Taxes for the year in which such refund is received. In determining the amount of Taxes for any year, the amount of special assessments to be included shall be limited to the amount of the installment (plus any interest payable thereon) of such special assessment required to be paid during such year as if the Landlord had elected to have such special assessment paid over the maximum period of time permitted by law. All references to Taxes "for" a particular year shall be deemed to refer to Taxes due and payable during such year without regard to when such Taxes are levied or assessed. Delay in computation of the Tax Adjustment Amount shall not be deemed a default hereunder or a waiver of Landlord's right to collect the Tax Adjustment Amount. In no event shall Landlord collect any amounts with respect to Taxes which would, when taken together with those amounts collected by Landlord from other tenants in the Building (and in the event the Building is less than 100% occupied, paid directly by Landlord), exceed 100% of the actual Taxes for any Calendar Year.
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.
True-Up Adjustments From time to time, until the Retirement of the Recovery Bonds, the Servicer shall identify the need for True-Up Adjustments and shall take all reasonable action to obtain and implement such True-Up Adjustments, all in accordance with the following:
Cost of Living Adjustments Effective December 1, 2021, Compensation Plan salary rates shall be increased by two and five tenths percent (2.5%) but not less than eighty-five dollars ($85) per month (prorated for part-time employees). Effective December 1, 2022, Compensation Plan salary rates shall be increased by three and one tenth percent (3.1%) but not less than one hundred dollars ($100) per month (prorated for part-time employees). (See Appendix C & E.)
CPI Adjustment If the CPI Percentage Increase (as defined below) is more than [***] for the relevant Adjustment Period, then the Rent payable during that Adjustment Period shall be adjusted upward by a percentage equal to the CPI Percentage Increase (as defined below) applicable to such Adjustment Period, but not to exceed an adjustment during any Adjustment Period of greater than [***]. The term “Consumer Price Index” shall mean the unadjusted Consumer Price Index for All Urban Workers, U.S. City Average, All Items, 1982-84=100, calculated and published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. The “CPI Percentage Increase” shall mean, with respect to any Adjustment Period, [***]. For the avoidance of doubt, no CPI Adjustment shall be made to any payment due under this Ground Lease for any Adjustment Period if the result of such CPI Adjustment would be to (a) reduce the amount of such payment to an amount that is less than the amount of such payment due for the immediately preceding Adjustment Period or (b) to raise the amount of such payment to an amount that is greater than [***]. For illustrative purposes only, [***]. The CPI Percentage Increase for any Adjustment Period shall be calculated by the Tenant, and the Tenant shall deliver written notice to the Landlord describing such calculation in reasonable detail (a “CPI Notice”) no later than thirty (30) days after the commencement of any Adjustment Period. If the Landlord disagrees with the Tenant’s calculation of the CPI Percentage Increase, then the Landlord shall deliver to the Tenant written notice, describing the basis for such disagreement in reasonable detail (a “CPI Disagreement Notice”), not later than thirty (30) days after delivery of the CPI Notice. If the Landlord fails to deliver a CPI Disagreement Notice within thirty (30) days after delivery of any CPI Notice, then the Landlord shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed with the calculation of the CPI Percentage Increase set forth in such CPI Notice.
Pricing Adjustments a.
