Buyer agrees after the Closing, to the extent reasonably necessary for Seller to continue to prosecute such proceedings, to reasonably cooperate with Seller, to pay its pro rata share of any costs attributable to such proceedings and also agrees to promptly endorse or pay over to Seller any abatement amounts for such years received by Buyer, less applicable costs incurred by Buyer. To the extent that such refunds are paid to Seller and are due to tenants, Seller does hereby covenant and agree that it shall, upon receipt thereof, reimburse tenants for their applicable share of such refunds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all reimbursable expenses shall be reconciled at Closing, such that if Seller has collected sums in excess of its reimbursable expenses under the Leases, Seller shall pay such excess to Buyer. In the event that such reconciliation shows that Seller has collected less than its incurred reimbursable expenses under the Leases, Buyer shall remit the shortfall to Seller, when and to the extent actually collected from tenants (with such collections applied first to amounts due with respect to the month in which Closing occurs, and then to any amounts due Buyer with respect to the period of time following the Closing, and then to Seller with respect to any amounts due to Seller with respect to the period of time prior to the Closing) not later than the expiration of one hundred twenty (120) days after the calendar year in which the Closing occurs with respect to the budgeting of such expenses under the Leases.
