Rent Adjustment (a) If, solely as a result of Congressional enactment of any law (including, without limitation, any modification of, or amendment or addition to, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, ("CODE")), the maximum effective corporate income tax rate (exclusive of any minimum tax rate) for calendar-year taxpayers ("EFFECTIVE RATE") is higher than thirty-five percent (35%) for any year during the lease term, then Lessor shall have the right to increase such rent payments by requiring payment of a single additional sum. The additional sum shall be equal to the product of (i) the Effective Rate (expressed as a decimal) for such year less .35 (or, in the event that any adjustment has been made hereunder for any previous year, the Effective Rate (expressed as a decimal) used in calculating the next previous adjustment) times (ii) the adjusted Termination Value (defined below), divided by (iii) the difference between the new Effective Rate (expressed as a decimal) and one (1). The adjusted Termination Value shall be the Termination Value (calculated as of the first rent due in the year for which the adjustment is being made) minus the Tax Benefits that would be allowable under Section 168 of the Code (as of the first day of the year for which such adjustment is being made and all future years of the lease term). The Termination Values and Tax Benefits are defined on the Schedule. Lessee shall pay to Lessor the full amount of the additional rent payment on the later of (i) receipt of notice or (ii) the first day of the year for which such adjustment is being made.
Purchase Price Adjustment (a) Not later than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Contributor Parties shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Acquiror a preliminary settlement statement (the “Estimated Adjustment Statement”) setting forth (i) an estimated combined balance sheet of the Compression Group Entities as of the Closing Date, which balance sheet will be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied consistently with the Contributor Parties’ past practices (including its preparation of the Unaudited Financial Statements) (the “Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet”) based on the most recent financial information of the Compression Group Entities reasonably available to the Contributor Parties and the Contributor Parties’ reasonable estimates with respect to the assets, liabilities and members’ equity of the Compression Group Entities as of the Closing Date, (ii) a calculation of the difference, if any, between the Net Working Capital shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”) and the Net Working Capital Threshold, (iii) a calculation of the Debt shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Closing Date Debt”), (iv) a calculation of the Cash shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Closing Date Cash Amount”) and (v) a calculation of the estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount. Acquiror shall have the right, following Acquiror’s receipt of the Estimated Adjustment Statement, to object thereto by delivering written notice to ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, no later than two Business Days before the Closing Date. To the extent Acquiror timely objects to the Estimated Adjustment Statement (or any component thereof), Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, shall enter into good faith negotiations and attempt to resolve any such objection; provided, however, that if Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, are unable to resolve such objection prior to the Closing Date, then the Contributor Parties’ calculations as reflected in the Estimated Adjustment Statement shall control solely for purposes of the payments to be made at Closing. To the extent Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, resolve any such objection prior to the Closing, then the Parties shall jointly agree on a revised Estimated Adjustment Statement that shall control solely for purposes of the payments to be made at the Closing. The estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount that controls for purposes of the payments to be made at the Closing is referred to herein as the “Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount.”
