"Operational Period"). The Buyer has advanced to the Sellers, as
of the date of the Amendment, Three Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($350,000) (the "Negative Cash Flow Advance") against the
Estimate of the Negative Cash Flow. At or prior to Closing,
Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, on behalf of the Seller Parties, shall cause to
be delivered to the Buyer a detailed statement of cash flows of
the Sellers for the Operational Period (the "Estimated
Operational Period Financial Statement") which estimate shall be
attached as an Exhibit to the Closing Statement. Within sixty
(60) days after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall prepare and
deliver to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, on behalf of the Seller Parties, a
determination (the "Operational Period Financial Determination")
of the actual amount of the Negative Cash Flow (which actual
amount is referred to herein as the "Preliminary Negative Cash
Flow Amount"), including the basis for such Operational Period
Financial Determination set forth in reasonable detail, prepared
in accordance with GAAP. If, within thirty (30) days after the
date on which the Operational Period Financial Determination is
delivered to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, he shall not have given written
notice to the Buyer setting forth in reasonable detail any
objection of the Seller Parties to such Operational Period
Financial Determination, then such Operational Period Financial
Determination shall be final and binding upon the Parties and the
Preliminary Negative Cash Flow Amount shall be deemed the "Final
Negative Cash Flow Amount". In the event that Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, on
behalf of the Seller Parties, gives written notice of any
objection to such Operational Period Financial Determination
within such 30-day period, then the Buyer and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx,
shall use all reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute within
thirty (30) business days following the receipt by the Buyer of
such written notice from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx. If the Parties are
unable to reach an agreement as to the Final Negative Cash Flow
Amount within such 30-day period, the matter shall be submitted
to the Settlement Accountant for determination of the Final
Negative Cash Flow Amount to be made within 45 days after
submission, and the determination of the Settlement Accountant
shall be final and binding upon the Buyer and the Seller Parties.
The Buyer and the Seller Parties shall contribute equally to all
costs (including fees and expenses charged by the Settlement
Accountant) in connection with the resolution of any such
dispute. If the Final Negative Cash Flow Amount is lower than the
Negative Cash Flow paid to the Sellers at Closing then such
amount shall be deemed to be Indemnifiable Damages under Article
X hereof and the Buyer may set off against and recoup from any
Cash Holdback Amount the difference between the Final Negative
Cash Flow Amount and the Negative Cash Flow paid to the Sellers
at
5
6
Closing or take any other action or exercise any other remedy
available to it by appropriate legal proceedings to recover such
amount. If the Final Negative Cash Flow Amount is higher than the
Negative Cash Flow paid to the Sellers at Closing, then such
amount shall be paid by the Buyer to the Sellers within thirty
(30) days of the determination of the Final Negative Cash Flow
Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above,
the calculation of Negative Cash Flow (i) shall not take into
account any expenses incurred as a result of an Extraordinary
Cause (as hereinafter defined) and (ii) shall take into account
any revenue that otherwise would have been generated (as measured
by the prior operation(s) of such spa(s)) but for such
Extraordinary Cause. "Extraordinary Cause" shall mean any or all
of the following: (i) a breach by any of the Seller Parties of
the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, (ii) an event of Force
Majeure that occurs during the Operational Period or (iii) the
gross negligence, recklessness or intentional misconduct of any
of the Seller Parties during the Operational Period that
adversely affects the Business.
(iii) From and after the Closing Date, and for the
purpose of enabling the Buyer to prepare the Operational Period
Financial Determination or any other determinations contemplated
by clause (ii) above, the Seller Parties will, and the Seller
Parties will cause the Company to, (a) afford to the
Representatives of the Buyer, at reasonable times, reasonable
access to the key employees, sites, properties, books and records
of each of the Sellers and the Company, (b) provide the Buyer
with such additional financial and operating data and other
information relating to the business and properties of each of
the Sellers and the Company as the Buyer may from time to time
reasonably request and (c) cooperate with the Buyer and its
Representatives in the preparation of the Operational Period
Financial Determination or any other determinations contemplated
by clause (ii) above.
12. CURRENT BALANCE SHEET. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement and except as otherwise provided
below, (i) all references in the Asset Purchase Agreement to the "Current
Balance Sheet" shall mean the balance sheet of each of the Operational Sellers
and the Company dated as of April 30, 2001 and attached as Exhibit 11 to this
Amendment and (ii) all references in the Asset Purchase Agreement to the
"Current Balance Sheet Date" shall mean April 30, 2001; provided, however, that
with respect to the penultimate sentence of Section 4.18 and Sections 4.26(a)
and 4.28 of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the definition of "Current Balance
Sheet" and "Current Balance Sheet Date" shall mean (i) the balance sheet of each
