Purchase Price Adjustment (a) Not later than five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Contributor Parties shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Acquiror a preliminary settlement statement (the “Estimated Adjustment Statement”) setting forth (i) an estimated combined balance sheet of the Compression Group Entities as of the Closing Date, which balance sheet will be prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied consistently with the Contributor Parties’ past practices (including its preparation of the Unaudited Financial Statements) (the “Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet”) based on the most recent financial information of the Compression Group Entities reasonably available to the Contributor Parties and the Contributor Parties’ reasonable estimates with respect to the assets, liabilities and members’ equity of the Compression Group Entities as of the Closing Date, (ii) a calculation of the difference, if any, between the Net Working Capital shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”) and the Net Working Capital Threshold, (iii) a calculation of the Debt shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Closing Date Debt”), (iv) a calculation of the Cash shown on the Estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet (the “Estimated Closing Date Cash Amount”) and (v) a calculation of the estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount. Acquiror shall have the right, following Acquiror’s receipt of the Estimated Adjustment Statement, to object thereto by delivering written notice to ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, no later than two Business Days before the Closing Date. To the extent Acquiror timely objects to the Estimated Adjustment Statement (or any component thereof), Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, shall enter into good faith negotiations and attempt to resolve any such objection; provided, however, that if Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, are unable to resolve such objection prior to the Closing Date, then the Contributor Parties’ calculations as reflected in the Estimated Adjustment Statement shall control solely for purposes of the payments to be made at Closing. To the extent Acquiror and ETP, on behalf of the Contributor Parties, resolve any such objection prior to the Closing, then the Parties shall jointly agree on a revised Estimated Adjustment Statement that shall control solely for purposes of the payments to be made at the Closing. The estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount that controls for purposes of the payments to be made at the Closing is referred to herein as the “Estimated Purchase Price Adjustment Amount.”
Purchase Price Adjustments (a) No later than 75 days following the Closing, Purchaser shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Seller a statement (the “Post-Closing Payment Statement”) setting forth (i) Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the aggregate amount of the Cash Equivalents, (ii) Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the Net Working Capital and the resulting amount, if any, by which the Net Working Capital is less than (or greater than) Target Working Capital, (iii) Purchaser’s good faith estimate of the Closing Indebtedness, (iv) Purchaser’s calculation of the Aggregate Purchase Price based on the foregoing and (v) Purchaser’s calculation of the Loan Receivables. If Seller accepts the Post-Closing Payment Statement in writing, or if Seller fails to notify Purchaser of any dispute with respect thereto within 30 days following receipt thereof, then the calculation of the Aggregate Purchase Price and the components thereof and Purchaser’s calculation of the Loan Receivables as set forth in the Post-Closing Payment Statement shall be deemed final and conclusive and binding upon all parties. If Seller disputes the accuracy of the calculation of the Aggregate Purchase Price or any component thereof or the calculation of the Loan Receivables set forth in the Post-Closing Payment Statement, Seller shall provide written notice to Purchaser no later than 30 days following receipt of the Post-Closing Payment Statement (the “Dispute Notice”), setting forth in reasonable detail those items that Seller disputes, the amounts of any adjustments that are necessary in Seller’s judgment for the computation of the Aggregate Purchase Price or the components thereof or the calculation of the Loan Receivables to conform to the requirements of this Agreement, and the basis for its suggested adjustments. During the 30-day period following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Seller will negotiate in good faith with a view to resolving their disagreements over the disputed items. From and after the delivery of the Post-Closing Payment Statement to Seller and until the final determination of the Aggregate Purchase Price and the Loan Receivables in accordance with this Section 2.6, Seller and its agents will be provided with such reasonable access during normal business hours to the relevant portions of the financial books and records of the Company and its Subsidiary and access to the agents and employees of the Company and its Subsidiary (including independent accountants and their work papers, subject to execution of customary access papers) as Seller may reasonably request to enable it to respond to the Post-Closing Payment Statement. If the parties resolve their differences over the disputed items in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Aggregate Purchase Price and the Loan Receivables shall be the amount agreed upon by them. If the parties fail to resolve their differences over the disputed items within such 30-day period, then Purchaser and Seller shall forthwith jointly engage the Accounting Arbitrator to make a binding determination as to the disputed items in accordance with this Agreement.
