Tax Refunds (a) Seller shall be entitled to the amount of any Income Tax refunds (or any Tax credits received in lieu thereof to the extent such credit in lieu thereof actually reduces Taxes for a Post-Closing Tax Period) that are actually received by Buyer, any Group Company, any of their respective Affiliates, or a consolidated, combined, unitary, or similar group of which any Group Company is a member after the Closing, in each case, for any Pre-Closing Tax Period ending on the Closing Date or the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (determined in accordance with Section 8.6.4), including any such Tax refunds resulting from any Transaction Tax Deductions, and net of any Taxes and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such Tax refunds (or credits in lieu thereof), in each case, to the extent such Tax refund (or credit in lieu thereof) is with respect to Taxes paid by a Group Company prior to the Closing Date or included in the final calculation of the Closing Statement (any such Income Tax refund or credit in lieu thereof, a “Tax Refund”); provided, however, that Seller shall not be entitled to any Tax Refund (x) required to be paid over by any Group Company (or any Affiliate thereof) to any Person under a provision of a Contract (other than this Agreement) to which such Person was a party prior to the Closing, (y) resulting from the payment of Income Taxes by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Group Company) made after the Closing Date to the extent such Income Taxes were not included in the final calculation of the Closing Statement, and (z) resulting from a carryback of a Tax attribute from any period ending after the Closing Date.
(b) Buyer shall promptly pay, or cause to be paid, over to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds any Tax Refunds that Seller is entitled to pursuant to this Section 8.6.1 within ten (10) Business Days of the actual receipt of the Tax Refund giving rise to Buyer’s obligation to make a payment pursuant to Section 8.6.1 with respect thereto (or, in the case of a credit in lieu of a refund, the Due Date for the filing of a Tax Return that reflects the actual reduction in Taxes resulting from such credit).
(c) The Group Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain (or cause to be obtained) any reasonably available Tax Refunds with respect to any applicable Pre-Closing Period Income Tax Return by filing, or causing to file, any such Tax Returns as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date, in each case, as finally resolved pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.6.2; provided, however, that the Group Companies shall not be required to file IRS Form 4466 (or any comparable form for state or local Tax purposes). The Group Companies shall not elect to apply any applicable Tax Refund as a credit against Taxes payable for a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date.
(d) For applicable Tax purposes, Buyer, Seller and each of their respective Affiliates shall treat all payments to Seller made pursuant to this Section 8.6.1 as an adjustment to purchase price to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.
Refunds If Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes to which the Loan Parties have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 16, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over such refund to the Administrative Borrower on behalf of the Loan Parties (but only to the extent of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section 16 with respect to Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the applicable Governmental Authority with respect to such a refund); provided, that the Loan Parties, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Loan Parties (plus any penalties, interest or other charges, imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Agent or Lender hereunder as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 16 shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to Loan Parties or any other Person or require Agent or any Lender to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to Section 16.4, the payment of which would place Agent or such Lender (or their Affiliates) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Person would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

(b) Earnout amounts shall be calculated promtly after the preparation of the Parent’s financial statements following the accounting period in which the end of such earnout period occurs. The First Earnout Period Payment, if any, shall be deposited with Escrow Agent and made part of the Escrow Amount. The calculation of the amount earned in the First Earnout Period Payment or Second Earnout Period Payment, as the case may be, may be referred to as the “Earnout Payment” for such period. Such Earnout Payments shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent or paid to the Constituents in accordance with Section 1.5(a), as the case may be, within the later of (i) ninety (90) days after the Parent’s delivery to the Stockholder Representatives of the applicable Earnout Certificate, or (ii) if disputed pursuant to Section 1.7(f) below, ten (10) Business Days after final determination of the applicable Earnout Payment pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.7(f).

The Stockholder Representatives and their professional advisors will be given reasonable access to only those books and records of the Surviving Corporation that are necessary to confirm the calculation of the Earnout Payment. All information obtained by the Stockholder Representatives shall be deemed to be confidential information of the Parent subject to the restrictions of the Confidentiality Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit I.

Earnout (a) The Purchaser shall pay to the Shareholders earnout payments, each in an amount equal to seventy percent (70%) of Earnout Period Revenues generated in each Earnout Period, in accordance with this Section 3.6 (each such payment, an “Earnout Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6(a), in no event shall the aggregate Earnout Payments payable hereunder be less than zero or greater than Nine Million Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($9,800,000).
(b) Within ninety (90) days following the end of the First Earnout Period and the Second Earnout Period, as the case may be, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Shareholders a report setting forth its calculation of the Earnout Payment for such applicable Earnout Period, including a statement of the Earnout Period Revenues for such applicable Earnout Period (the “Earnout Report”). The Purchaser shall provide a reasonable level of supporting documentation for the Earnout Payment and any additional information reasonably requested by the Shareholders related thereto together with the Earnout Report. The Earnout Payment for the applicable Earnout Period shall represent only a right to receive a cash payment from the Purchaser, subject to the terms set forth herein, and shall not be deemed an interest in any security or certificate or entitle the holders thereof to any rights of any kind other than as specifically set forth herein. No interest is payable with respect to any Earnout Payment to the extent timely paid when due.
(c) The Shareholders shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of the applicable Earnout Report delivered pursuant to Section 3.6(b) during which to notify the Purchaser of any dispute of any item contained therein or related thereto, which notice shall set forth in detail the basis for such dispute. The Purchaser and the Shareholders shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as possible. Upon such resolution, a Final Earnout Report shall be prepared in accordance with the agreement of the Purchaser and the Shareholders and the calculation of the applicable Earnout Payment, if any, based thereon, shall constitute the applicable Final Earnout Payment and be final and binding upon the Parties. In the event the Shareholders do not notify the Purchaser of any such dispute within such thirty (30)-day period or notify the Purchaser within such period that they do not dispute any item contained therein, the applicable Earnout Report delivered pursuant to Section 3.6(b) shall constitute the Final Earnout Report with respect to such Earnout Period and the Purchaser’s calculation of the applicable Earnout Payment, if any, based thereon shall be final and binding upon the Parties.
(d) In the event the Purchaser and the Shareholders are unable to resolve any dispute regarding an Earnout Report delivered pursuant to Section 3.6(b) within thirty (30) days following the Purchaser’s receipt of notice of such dispute, such dispute shall be submitted to, and all issues having a bearing on such dispute shall be resolved by, an Accounting Referee. In resolving any such dispute, the Accounting Referee shall consider only those items or amounts in or related to the Earnout Report as to which the Shareholder has disagreed. The Accounting Referee’s determination of the Earnout Report and the Earnout Payment, if any, based thereon shall constitute the applicable Final Earnout Report and Final Earnout Payment and shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties shall direct the Accounting Referee to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete its work within thirty (30) days following its engagement. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be shared equally by the Shareholders and the Purchaser.
(e) The Parties acknowledge that there is no assurance that the Shareholders will have the right to receive any Earnout Payment and Purchaser has not promised or projected any particular Earnout Payment. The earnout opportunity in this Section 3.6 is presented under the understanding that the Purchaser will have full control and direction over the Company and its business following the Closing, including decisions regarding strategic initiatives, management, legal structure, finance and accounting, marketing and branding and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.6(e), during the Earnout Period, the Purchaser shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Affiliates to, terminate the Earnout Contract and enter into a separate Contract with the Earnout Customer or any of its Affiliates for utilization management services for the purpose or effect of avoiding or reducing its obligations with respect to the Earnout Payments hereunder.
(f) All payments made pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall be treated by the Parties for tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(iii) Solely for purposes of this Section 7.03(g), “Economic Cost”, means, with respect to a Class B Member, such Member’s direct or indirect Percentage Interest of any Company cash or other Company asset that is distributed in a non-pro rata distribution to fund all or any portion of any Earn-Out Payment; provided, that, “Economic Cost” shall not include any diminution in value, lost profits or similar cost not relating to the immediate economic effect of the applicable non-pro-rata distribution.
Premium Taxes If premium taxes are incurred, they will be deducted from the contract accumulation, to the extent permitted by law.
