Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Buyer shall not have access to (A) personnel records of the Business Employees relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information which would violate applicable Law or which in Seller’s opinion is sensitive or the disclosure of which could subject Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to risk of Liability, (B) any properties of Seller or its Subsidiaries (whether owned or leased) for purposes of conducting any environmental sampling or testing or any other invasive sampling or testing, (C) any information to the extent relating to any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability or (D) information relating to the Retained Businesses, and (ii) as and to the extent necessary to avoid contravention or waiver, Seller and its Subsidiaries may withhold any document or information the disclosure of which could reasonably be expect to violate any Contract or any Law or would result in the waiver of any legal privilege or work-product privilege; provided that to the extent practicable, Seller and its Subsidiaries shall make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of this subclause (ii) apply. Seller shall have the right to have a Representative present at all times during any such inspections, interviews and examinations. Buyer shall hold in confidence all such information on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Initial Closing, without the prior written consent of Seller, which may be withheld for any reason, Buyer shall not contact any employees or consultants of, vendors to, or customers of, Seller or its Subsidiaries about the Business, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Company shall make available to Parent and its Representatives the books and records used in preparing the Estimated Closing Statement and reasonable access (on prior notice and during business hours) to employees of the Company as Parent may reasonably request in connection with its review of such statements, and will otherwise cooperate in good faith with Parent’s and its Representatives review of such statements and shall take into consideration in good faith any comments of Parent on the Estimated Closing Statement, as applicable. The Estimated Closing Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Estimated Closing Indebtedness Amount, the Estimated Closing Cash Amount, and the Estimated Closing Transaction Expense Amount set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement will be used for purposes of calculating the Aggregate Cash Consideration at the Closing (which calculation shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Section 2.9). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will any of Parent’s rights be considered waived, impaired or otherwise limited as a result of Parent not making an objection prior to the Closing or its making an objection that is not fully implemented in a revised Estimated Closing Statement, as applicable.

Buyer is not required to submit an offer. This does not apply to in-transit vehicles from the Manufacturer. Buyer shall retain and safeguard the pre-Closing customer paper deal jackets retained by Buyer in accordance with law, and, until Buyer destroys such records in accordance with company policy in effect from time to time, Seller shall have reasonable access to Seller’s pre-Closing customer records (e.g., paper deal jackets) and any records related to Assigned Contracts after the Closing for any legitimate purpose, such as (by way of example and not by limitation) for resolving customer inquiries.
