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.

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.
