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.

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.

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.

Net Working Capital At least three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a certificate (the “Estimated NWC Certificate”), including a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Closing Date, prepared in accordance with the accounting principles, methods, practices, estimates, judgments and assumptions applied in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, consistently applied (the “Accounting Principles”), which shall include (a) the Sellers’ good faith estimate (such estimate is referred to as the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”) of the “Net Working Capital Amount.” As used herein, “Net Working Capital Amount” means the Net Working Capital of the Company as of 11:59 p.m. EST on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date. “Net Working Capital” means the result of (i) all cash of the Company minus (ii) all current liabilities (excluding the Existing Indebtedness) of the Company, in each case determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles. The Purchase Price at Closing shall be increased by the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. No later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company dated at the Closing Date, which shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and (ii) a reasonably detailed statement (the “Final NWC Certificate”) setting forth Buyer’s calculations of the Net Working Capital Amount. If Sellers have any objections to the Final NWC Certificate, Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”), provided that the only bases for objections shall be (i) non-compliance with the standards set forth above for preparation of the Final NWC Certificate, or as set forth in the definition of Net Working Capital, and (ii) mathematical errors. If an Objections Statement is not delivered to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Final NWC Certificate, the Final NWC Certificate shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the parties hereto. Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections set forth in the Objections Statement (and all such discussions related thereto shall, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sellers, be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (and any applicable similar state rule)), but if they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, Sellers and Buyer may submit such dispute to one of the “Big Four” accounting firms other than Ernst & Young LLP or PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, or, in the event that any such auditor is unable to accept such appointment, to any other nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Buyer and Sellers (the “Independent Auditor”). Each party shall be afforded an opportunity to present to the Independent Auditor material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the determination with the Independent Auditor. The Independent Auditor shall act as an auditor and not as an arbitrator and shall resolve matters in dispute and adjust and establish any disputed adjustment of the Net Working Capital Amount to reflect such resolution, provided that the Independent Auditor shall not assign a value to any item or amount in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item or amount assigned by Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand. It is the intent of Buyer and Sellers that the process set forth in this Section 11(F) and the activities of the Independent Auditor in connection herewith are not intended to be and, in fact, are not arbitration and that no formal arbitration rules shall be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). Sellers and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to resolve all such disagreements as promptly as practicable. The resolution of the dispute by the Independent Auditor shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto. The Final NWC Certificate shall be modified if necessary to reflect such determination. The fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor shall be allocated for payment by Buyer, on the one hand, and/or Sellers, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each party bears to the amount actually contested by such party, as determined by the Independent Auditor. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Buyer shall pay to Sellers cash equal to the amount by which the Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount. If the Net Working Capital Amount as finally determined pursuant to the dispute resolution procedures described above is less than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shown on the Estimated NWC Certificate, then Sellers shall pay to Buyer cash equal to the amount by which the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount exceeds the Net Working Capital Amount.
