The Seller and the Owner, during the period from the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement through the Closing Date, shall, and shall cause their respective managers, officers, employees, accountants, and other relevant advisors to, provide the Buyer (and its auditors, advisors, counsel, and other representatives) reasonable access to the books and records, outside accounting firm, working papers (subject to the execution of customary access letters), personnel, and facilities of the Seller in order to complete their review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the calculations set forth therein, and the Seller shall consider in good faith any comments made by the Buyer to the Estimated Closing Statement. The Buyer’s failure to make any comment regarding, or to dispute any amount included in, the Estimated Closing Statement shall not limit, or have any effect on, the Buyer’s rights pursuant to Section 2.05(b) to conduct a review of the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Estimated Working Capital Increase or Estimated Working Capital Decrease, as the case may be, and the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price. The Seller and the Owner shall cooperate with the Buyer’s review of the Estimated Closing Statement and the Buyer and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith prior to the Closing to resolve any reasonable objection the Buyer may have to the estimates or calculations contained therein.
Closing Financial Statements At least eight Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Seller shall provide Buyer with Seller’s consolidated financial statements presenting the financial condition of Seller and its Subsidiaries as of the close of business on the last day of the last month ended prior to the Effective Time and Seller’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for the period from January 1, 2021, through the close of business on the last day of the last month ended prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Financial Statements”); provided, that if the Effective Time occurs on or before the 15th day of the month, Seller shall have provided consolidated financial statements as of and through the second month preceding the Effective Time. Such Closing Financial Statements shall have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and regulatory accounting principles and other applicable legal and accounting requirements, and reflect all period-end accruals and other adjustments, except that such Closing Financial Statements may omit the footnote disclosure required by GAAP. Such Closing Financial Statements shall be accompanied by, as of the date of such Closing Financial Statements, (a) accruals or estimates for all fees, costs and expenses incurred or expected to be incurred (whether or not doing so is in accordance with GAAP) in connection (directly or indirectly) with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) the capital ratios set forth in Section 8.2(f), (c) the asset quality metrics set forth in Section 8.2(d), and (d) a certificate of Seller’s chief financial officer, dated as of the date of such delivery of the Closing Financial Statements, to the effect that such financial statements meet the requirements of this Section 7.13 and continue to reflect accurately, as of the date of such certificate, the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity of Seller in all material respects (which certification shall be reaffirmed in the certificates required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.2(c)).
Closing Statement (a) At least five (5) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall submit to Buyer a written statement of estimated Current Assets and Current Liabilities as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date (the "Estimated Closing Statement") containing the Company's good faith estimate of the Net Working Capital Amount (the "Estimated Net Working Capital Amount"), which shall reflect the items required to be set forth in, and be prepared in a manner consistent with the preparation of, the Closing Statement, in each case in accordance with Section 4.6(b); provided, however, that for purposes of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, the parties hereto agree that 50% of the amount of Fuel Sensor Damages (x) actually expended by Parent or the Company from March 1, 2011 through the last day of the month immediately preceding the Closing Date and (y) accrued as current liabilities on the Estimated Closing Statement, shall be added as a credit to the estimated Net Working Capital Amount set forth on the Estimated Closing Statement. Commencing with the Company's delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement to Buyer, Buyer shall have reasonable access to the books and records and personnel of the Company and the opportunity to consult with the Company for purposes of confirming or disputing the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If Buyer shall disagree, in good faith, with any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, then Buyer and the Company shall work, in good faith, to reach agreement on such disputed items and the amounts as agreed to by Buyer and the Company shall constitute the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer's agreement with the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount (or any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement or used to determine the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount) shall not foreclose, prevent, limit or preclude any rights or remedy of Buyer set forth in this Agreement. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is less than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount. If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is more than the Target Net Working Capital Amount, the amount of the Closing Payment to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount and the Target Net Working Capital Amount.
Net Working Capital Adjustment (a) Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”) calculating the Net Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Net Working Capital”) as well as the adjustments to Transaction Consideration which shall be made pursuant to this Section 1.6, together with all underlying documentation supporting such calculations. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its preparation of the Closing Statement.
Working Capital Adjustment (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.6, the Purchase Price will be adjusted on a dollar for dollar basis following the Closing to the extent that the Working Capital of the Business as of the Closing (the "Final Working Capital") is greater or less than the Minimum Working Capital. As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than forty five (45) days after the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement of the Working Capital, reflecting each of the components of Working Capital as if set forth on a balance sheet, of the Business as of Closing Date which shall have been examined and reported on by Company's Auditor (the "Closing Working Capital Statement"). The report of Company's Auditor shall be made to the Company and Buyer and shall state that the Closing Working Capital Statement (i) has been prepared in conformity with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) was prepared in conformity with GAAP (except as otherwise provided herein), and applied on a consistent basis with those policies used by the Company ("Company Policies") in connection with the preparation of the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2000, and (iii) presents fairly, in all material respects, the Working Capital of the Business at the Closing Date, and that the audit by Company's Auditor was conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Closing Working Capital Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the books and records of the Company and in conformity with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis with Company Policies, except that (i) accounts receivable shall reflect only trade accounts receivable of the Business, (ii) accounts payable shall reflect only trade accounts payable of the Business and a payable to Pepsi-Cola and National Brand Beverages, Ltd. of $2,000,000 and shall exclude any accounts payable if including such accounts payable would result in the aggregate accounts payable exceeding the aggregate accounts receivable, (iii) the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable shall be zero, (iv) the value of Inventory shall be adjusted in accordance with the Company's year end adjustment procedures and (v) Retained Assets and Retained Liabilities shall be excluded. Promptly after the Closing, but in no event later than October 22, 2000, Buyer and the Company shall cooperate to permit the Company's Auditor to perform a physical count and inspection of the Inventory for purposes of preparing the Closing Working Capital Statement. The timing of such physical count and inspection shall be coordinated with Buyer and Buyer's Auditor so as to minimize disruption to Buyer's business and to allow Buyer's Auditor to be present at such physical count and inspection. For purposes of this Agreement, the Inventory to be stated on the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be the Inventory at the time of such physical count and inspection as adjusted in accordance with the books and records of the Company to the effective time of the Closing. The Company shall permit Buyer and Buyer's Auditor to review all work papers and computations used by the Company and Company's Auditor in preparing the Closing Working Capital Statement. After the Closing Date, until agreement is reached as to the Closing Working Capital Statement, for purposes of this Section 2.6, Buyer shall permit the Company and Company's Auditor full and free access, at all reasonable times, to the deeds, documents and contracts and books of account, records, files, invoices and other data associated with, necessary to or used in the Business as conducted on or before the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Company shall coordinate such access with Buyer in order to minimize disruption to the conduct of Buyer's business. Buyer shall within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement advise the Company in writing of the amounts and descriptions of adjustments relating to Working Capital, if any, which Buyer believes are necessary to be made to the Closing Working Capital Statement. In the event that Buyer and the Company are unable to resolve any differences with respect to the Working Capital reflected on the Closing Working Capital Statement within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement by Buyer, then the issues remaining unresolved shall be determined as follows: Buyer and the Company shall jointly select and retain an independent firm of certified public accountants of national standing and reputation in the United States (the "Independent Firm") for the purpose of resolving within the ranges proposed by Buyer and the Company all remaining unresolved issues with respect to the Working Capital. If Buyer and the Company are not able to agree upon the Independent Firm within seventy-five (75) days after receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement by Buyer, then the Independent Firm shall be selected by lot after Buyer has eliminated two (2) of the three (3) independent firms of public accountants of national standing and reputation in the United States selected by the Company and the Company has eliminated two (2) of the three (3) such firms selected by Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer's Auditor shall not be one of the three independent firms selected by Buyer and Company's Auditor shall not be one of the three independent firms selected by the Company.
