Celink shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with such examination, including fees and disbursements of independent accountants and expenses incurred in connection with distribution of reports to RMF.

12

(c) In addition to the foregoing, RMF may, at RMF’s expense, cause such Independent Accountants to conduct such additional reviews and prepare such additional reports with respect to the performance of Celink as directed by RMF or as deemed reasonably appropriate by RMF.
