Any matter or item in relation to the Draft Completion Statement not included by the Buyer within the Disputed Details will be deemed to be agreed by the Buyer for the purposes of the final determination of the Completion Statement in accordance with this Schedule 8 (Consideration adjustment ).

(c)If the Buyer does not provide written notification to the Seller of any Disputed Details within the 20 Business Day period set out in paragraph 1(b) of this Schedule 8, Part 1 (Completion Statement ) above, the Draft Completion Statement shall constitute the Completion Statement for the purposes of this Agreement.
