Inventory Adjustment (a) No more than three (3) days prior to Closing, a physical count of all saleable inventory, raw materials, castings, grates and other ancillary products included in the Seller Assets (the “Closing Inventory”) shall be carried out at the Designated Plants by representatives of each of the Seller and the Purchaser, which physical count shall be carried out in a manner mutually agreed upon by the parties. For the purposes of this Section 3.1(a), “saleable” inventory shall mean (i) finished goods, which are of first quality and saleable in the ordinary course without discount, and (ii) all raw materials, castings, grates and other ancillary products that are useable in the production of pipe and precast products or otherwise suitable for resale, unless obsolete, damaged or cosmetically impaired. The representatives of each of the Purchaser and the Seller shall attempt, in good faith, to resolve any disputes which may arise during the physical count of the inventory. Upon completion of the physical count of the inventory, the representatives of each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall agree upon and execute a statement setting forth either (i) the final physical count of the inventory in the event that the representatives agree on such final physical count or (ii) the final physical count of the inventory of each of the Seller and the Purchaser in the event that the representatives were unable to resolve in good faith any disputes during the physical inventory count, noting such items of dispute (the “Disputed Seller Inventory Items”) therein. The value of Closing Inventory shall be determined in accordance with the Inventory Methodology. In the event that there are any Disputed Seller Inventory Items, such Disputed Seller Inventory Items shall be resolved following the Closing pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 3.2 and the final physical count agreed to by the parties or resolved pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be final and binding on the parties, including for purposes of determining the Closing Inventory. (b) No later than 90 days after the Closing Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day), the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a certificate executed by the
Estimated Closing Statement Not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”), certified in writing by an executive officer of the Seller, setting forth, in reasonable detail, (i) the Seller’s good faith calculation, together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation, of the estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital”) and the components thereof; (ii) the Estimated Working Capital Increase or Estimated Working Capital Decrease, as the case may be; and (iii) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price (the resulting amount, the “Estimated Purchase Price”), in each case calculated pursuant to the Accounting Principles. The Seller and the Owner, during the period from the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement through the Closing Date, shall, and shall cause their respective managers, officers, employees, accountants, and other relevant advisors to, provide the Buyer (and its auditors, advisors, counsel, and other representatives) reasonable access to the books and records, outside accounting firm, working papers (subject to the execution of customary access letters), personnel, and facilities of the Seller in order to complete their review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein, and the Seller shall consider in good faith any comments made by the Buyer to the Estimated Closing Statement. The Buyer’s failure to make any comment regarding, or to dispute any amount included in, the Estimated Closing Statement shall not limit, or have any effect on, the Buyer’s rights pursuant to Section 2.05(b) to conduct a review of the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Estimated Working Capital Increase or Estimated Working Capital Decrease, as the case may be, and the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price. The Seller and the Owner shall cooperate with the Buyer’s review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the Buyer and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith prior to the Closing to resolve any reasonable objection the Buyer may have to the estimates or calculations contained therein.
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
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.
Closing Adjustments To the extent that any prorations, adjustments or other amounts with respect to the Contributed Entity or the Property shall be payable by or to the Contributors at or following each Closing in accordance with the provisions of the Master Agreement, the amount of the purchase consideration determined pursuant to Section 1.2(a) shall be adjusted accordingly, it being acknowledged and agreed by each Contributor that from and after the date hereof, (i) the Contributed Entity shall not declare, pay or otherwise make provision for any dividends or distributions and (ii) immediately prior to the Closing, in addition to any prorations, adjustments or other amounts payable by or to the Contributors with respect to the Contributed Entity or the Property, the Contributed Entity shall distribute to each Contributor receiving Securities an amount equal to the amount such Contributor would have been paid as a distribution on account of the Securities it will receive at Closing had such Securities been issued and sold to such Contributor at the Initial Closing.
Closing Statement (a) At least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall submit to Buyer a written statement of estimated Current Assets and Current Liabilities as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Estimated Closing Statement") containing the Company's good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital Amount (the "Estimated Net Working Capital Amount"), which shall reflect the items required to be set forth in, and be prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of, the Closing Statement, in each case in accordance with Section 4.6(b); provided, however, that for purposes of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, the parties hereto agree that 50% of the amount of Fuel Sensor Damages (x) actually expended by Parent or the Company from March 1, 2011 through the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date and (y) accrued as current liabilities on the Estimated Closing Statement, shall be added as a credit to the estimated Net Working Capital Amount set forth on the Estimated Closing Statement. Commencing with the Company's delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement to Buyer, Buyer shall have reasonable access to the books and records and personnel of the Company and the opportunity to consult with the Company for purposes of confirming or disputing the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If Buyer shall disagree, in good faith, with any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, then Buyer and the Company shall work, in good faith, to reach agreement on such disputed items and the amounts as agreed to by Buyer and the Company shall constitute the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer's agreement with the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount (or any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount) shall not foreclose, prevent, limit or preclude any rights or remedy of Buyer set forth in this Agreement. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is more than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount.
Post-Closing Adjustment (i) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Closing Statement”) that shall set forth in reasonable detail Seller’s calculation of the net amount of all adjustments to the Base Purchase Price required by Section 2.6(a) taking into account actual data (the “Purchase Price Adjustment”), together with reasonable supporting material regarding the computation thereof. Buyer shall have thirty (30) days to review the Closing Statement following receipt thereof. On or before the end of such 30-day review period, Buyer may object to the Closing Statement by written notice to Seller (the “Objection Notice”), setting forth Buyer’s specific objections to the calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment. Such Objection Notice shall specify those items or amounts with which Buyer disagrees, together with a detailed written explanation of the reasons for disagreement with each such item or amount (and reasonable supporting material therefor), and shall set forth Buyer’s calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment based on such objections. To the extent not set forth in a timely-delivered Objection Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with Seller’s calculation of all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement and neither party may thereafter dispute any item or amount not set forth in such Objection Notice. If Buyer does not timely deliver any Objection Notice, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with and accepted Seller’s calculation of the Purchase Price Adjustment, and the Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties as of the end of Buyer’s 30-day review period.
Closing Adjustment Not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Sellers shall provide Purchasers with a certificate signed by an officer of each of the Sellers attaching reasonable and good faith estimates (the “Closing Estimates”) of each of (i) the Closing Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Working Capital”), (ii) the Closing Cash Amount (the “Estimated Closing Cash Amount”); (iii) the Closing Date Indebtedness (the “Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness”); (iv) the Closing Date Transaction Fees (the “Estimated Closing Date Transaction Fees”); and (v) the Closing Adjustment (as defined below). Each of the Closing Estimates shall be determined in accordance with the Accounting Methodology. Purchasers shall be entitled to review, and propose reasonable changes to the Closing Estimates and Sellers shall provide Purchasers and their Representatives with reasonable access, at reasonable times following prior notice, to the officers, employees, agreements and books and records of the Transferred Entities to verify the accuracy of such amounts. The Sellers shall consider the Purchasers’ proposed changes in good faith. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement on any proposed changes, the Closing Estimates (and the components thereof) as proposed by the Sellers shall control solely for purposes of payments to be made at Closing and shall not limit or otherwise effect the Purchasers’ remedies under this Agreement or otherwise constitute an acknowledgment by Purchasers of the accuracy of the Closing Estimates. The “Closing Adjustment” shall equal (i) the Estimated Closing Working Capital, plus (ii) the Estimated Closing Cash Amount, less (iii) the Target Working Capital, less (iv) the Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, and (v) less the Estimated Closing Date Transaction Fees.
Seller’s Closing Costs Seller shall pay the following costs in connection with the consummation of the Closing: (i) all of the charges and transfer taxes for recording the deeds; (ii) all commissions owed to any broker in accordance with the terms of a separate agreement between Seller and such broker; and (iii) all other charges incurred by the Seller in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the fees and expenses for the Seller’s attorneys and other consultants).
