Earn-Out Payments (i) Promptly, but in any event within five (5) Business Days, after the Escrow Agent’s receipt of joint written instructions (“Earn-Out Payment Instructions”) from the DT Representative (on behalf of Purchaser) and the Seller Representative that for any Earn-Out Year there has been a final determination in accordance with Section 2.2 of the Share Exchange Agreement (but subject to Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of the Share Exchange Agreement) with respect to the Earn-Out Payment for such Earn-Out Year or the Alternative Earn-Out Payment (the date that the Escrow Agent receives Earn-Out Payment Instructions with respect to any Earn-Out Year, an “Earn-Out Release Date”), the Escrow Agent shall distribute Escrow Property from the Escrow Account in accordance with such Earn-Out Payment Instructions (A) to the Sellers in an amount equal to the Earn-Out Payment (excluding for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of any Accrued Dividends payable by the Purchaser separate from the Escrow Account) less the sum of (I) the Reserved Amount (as defined below) as of the date of such payment, and (II) the amount of any Indemnification Claims that have been paid from the Escrow Account prior to such time but have not previously been used to reduce the amount of any prior Earn-Out Payment (but net of any prior Earn-Out Payments that have not yet been paid and are still being retained in the Escrow Account as of such time for Indemnification Claims that are still Pending Claims as of such time), up to a maximum amount equal to such Earn-Out Payment, and (B), after the last Earn-Out Year only, to Purchaser any portion of any Earn-Out Payments that were not earned by the Sellers in accordance with the Share Exchange Agreement. For the determination of the Escrow Shares to be withheld for the Reserved Amount, the Escrow Shares shall be valued at the Purchaser Share Price as of the applicable Earn-Out Release Date.
Earn-Out Payment On or before each of September 15, 2003 and September 15, 2004, Buyer shall calculate the Revenue (as defined below) for the prior twelve (12) month period ending July 31 (each an "Earn Out Period") attributable to the Business, and deliver a notice of the calculation (together with the details of such calculation, including a line item for each element thereof) to Seller. As used in this Agreement, the "Business" means the products sold (together with services provided in connection therewith) by Company at the time of Closing (without regard to product name changes or the like) and listed on Schedule 1.2(b) (solely for purposes of this Section 1.2, the "Products"), and each subsequent version of any such software product introduced during the Earn Out Periods. The Revenue shall be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, applied on a consistent basis and consistent with past Company practices (including practices relating to foreign currency conversion), subject to the adjustments set forth in paragraph (c) below. In the event the Revenue for the one-year period ending on July 31, 2003 is greater than $7,295,851 (the "First Threshold"), One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the "First Earn Out Payment") of the Purchase Price will be paid in cash to the Seller on September 15, 2003. In the event the Revenue for the one-year period ending July 31, 2004 is greater than $7,295,851 (the "Second Threshold"), an additional one million dollars ($1,000,000) (the "Second Earn Out Payment") of the Purchase Price will be paid in cash to the Seller on September 15, 2004. Neither the First Earn Out Payment nor the Second Earn Out Payment may be increased, decreased, or prorated. If either the First Earn Out Payment or the Second Earn Out Period is not earned with respect to the year to which it relates, it expires and cannot be paid in a later year regardless of Revenue in that later year. Except for the obligations of Buyer and Company set forth in Section 1.2(e), nothing herein shall in any way limit or restrict Buyer's or Company's business practices or decisions following the Closing, provided that those practices and decisions are not solely for avoiding payment of the Earn Out.

The Purchaser hereby covenants and agrees to perform its obligations set forth in the Earnout Provisions and to maintain the highest number of Purchaser Common Shares potentially issuable under the terms of the Earnout Provisions (which number shall not be less than 22,200,000) available for issuance with respect to Earnout Payment Shares without any restriction or limitation thereof, at all times after the Closing until all of the payment obligations set forth in the Earnout Provisions have been satisfied or have expired. The amount of the Earnout Payment (i) is subject to reduction as set forth in the Earnout Provisions and Article VIII and, (ii) as set forth in the Earnout Provisions, has been partially and irrevocably assigned by Seller to fund a long-term incentive plan to be established for the benefit of designated individuals employed by or associated with the Group Company business, in a manner that shall be determined in Seller’s discretion, provided that Seller shall not receive any portion of such assigned Earnout Payment.

If the Company issues a number of such Mortgage Loans during such six-month period with an aggregate outstanding principal balance (including Poolable Advances) of at least $659,389,000, Purchaser shall pay to Seller $3,000,000 in cash in accordance with Section 3.5(b) below. 18 (b)No later than 30 days after the end of the period on which an Earn-Out Payment is based or the Closing occurs, whichever is later, Purchaser will deliver to Seller a notice (the “Earn-Out Notice”) setting forth Purchaser’s calculation of the outstanding principal balance (including Poolable Advances) of Mortgage Loans that were issued by the Company into GNMA HMBS pools for securitization of Mortgage Loans for the applicable period. If Seller is entitled to the Earn-Out Payment, Purchaser shall make the Earn-Out Payment within 10 Business Days after delivery of the Earn-Out Notice. If Seller is not entitled to the Earn-Out Payment, and Seller disagrees with the Purchaser’s calculation, Seller shall notify Purchaser no later than 15 days after the Earn-Out Notice is delivered of its objections and the basis therefor in reasonable detail. Failure of Seller to notify Purchaser of disagreement with the matters set forth in the Earn-Out Notice within 15 days after delivery of the Earn-Out Notice shall be deemed to be concurrence. If an objection is made, Purchaser and Seller will negotiate in good faith to reach an agreement regarding the matters in dispute. Purchaser shall provide Seller and its Affiliates and their authorized Representatives with reasonable access to the relevant books, records, facilities, employees and representatives of the Company reasonably requested by Seller to evaluate and assess the calculation of the Statements, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 6.2.

Any payment under this Section 3.5(b) shall be made by federal funds wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) of Seller, which account(s) shall be identified by Seller to Purchaser as soon as practicable following the determination of the amount of the Earn-Out Payment. (c)Purchaser shall cause the Company to operate in the pre-Closing Ordinary Course, without accelerating or delaying or otherwise deviating in any material respect from the historical securitization practices prior to the Closing Date, from the Closing Date through December 31, 2013.
