Intercompany Arrangements (a) Except as set forth in Section 5.5(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules and except for this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and the agreements specifically referred to therein as remaining outstanding after the Closing, all intercompany and intracompany accounts, indebtedness, transactions or Contracts between the Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Seller and its Affiliates (other than the Companies and their respective Subsidiaries or with respect to the TS Business), on the other hand, shall be cancelled, settled, offset, capitalized or otherwise eliminated prior to the determination of Indebtedness for purposes of calculating the Cash Purchase Price, without any consideration or further liability to any party and without the need for any further documentation, prior to the Closing.
(b) The Parties recognize and acknowledge that the Enterprise-Wide Contracts set forth in Section 5.5(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules relate to both the TS Business and the Retained Business.

(iii) Solely for purposes of this Section 7.03(g), “Economic Cost”, means, with respect to a Class B Member, such Member’s direct or indirect Percentage Interest of any Company cash or other Company asset that is distributed in a non-pro rata distribution to fund all or any portion of any Earn-Out Payment; provided, that, “Economic Cost” shall not include any diminution in value, lost profits or similar cost not relating to the immediate economic effect of the applicable non-pro-rata distribution.
