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.

The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Agreement and include reasonable supporting detail of each of the calculations contained therein. Prior to the Closing, and following the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement by the Company to Buyer, the Company shall consider in good faith any comments to the Estimated Closing Statement reasonably proposed by Buyer and may, in its sole discretion, determine whether to reflect any or all of such comments therein; provided that the Closing shall not be delayed in respect of any such comments proposed by Buyer and in no event shall the proposal of such comments or the delivery of such Estimated Closing Statement be deemed to constitute the agreement of Buyer as to any of the estimated amounts set forth in such Estimated Closing Statement, and in no way shall the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement or the consummation of the Closing be construed as a waiver by Buyer of its rights under Section 3.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties acknowledge and agree, and each Pre-Closing Holder shall acknowledge and agree in such Pre-Closing Holder’s Letter of Transmittal, if applicable, that Buyer shall be entitled to rely on the Company’s calculation of the Closing Date Company Unit Consideration, the Distribution Waterfall and the Estimated Per Interest Payment Amount or UAR Payment Amount payable with respect to each Pre-Closing Holder set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, as setting forth a true, complete and accurate listing of all items set forth therein and a true, complete and accurate calculation of the amounts to which such Pre-Closing Holders are entitled pursuant to the Company LLC Agreement and the UAR Plans, as in effect as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and in no event shall Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries) have any liability to the Pre-Closing Holders or to any other Person for the calculation or allocation of any item or amount set forth therein.
