Upon the expiration of the applicable Objection Period, the Seller Representative will be deemed to have accepted (and will be deemed to have waived all rights with respect to), and will be bound by, the applicable Earn-Out Statement and the calculation of any Earn-Out Payment set forth therein, unless the Seller Representative has notified the Buyer in writing of its disagreement with the applicable Earn-Out Statement prior to the expiration of the applicable Objection Period (the “Objection Notice”), specifying each disputed item (each, a “Disputed Item”) and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for each dispute. The Buyer will have 20 Business Days from the date on which it receives the Objection Notice to review and respond in good faith to such objection (“Buyer Response Notice”). To the extent the Buyer and the Seller Representative are able to negotiate in good faith mutually agreeable resolutions for each Disputed Item, the applicable Earn-Out Statement will be modified as necessary to reflect such mutually agreed resolution(s). If the Buyer and the Seller Representative are able to resolve all Disputed Items, the applicable Earn-Out Statement and the calculation of the Earn-Out Payment set forth therein, as modified by such resolutions, will be deemed final, non-appealable and binding among the Buyer, the Sellers and the Seller Representative for all purposes of this Schedule.
c.
Arbitration of Disputes. If the Seller Representative and the Buyer are unable to resolve all Disputed Items within 20 Business Days after delivery of the Buyer Response Notice (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed by the Buyer and the Seller Representative), then all unresolved Disputed Items shall be submitted to the Arbitration Firm, which shall be jointly engaged by the Buyer and the Seller Representative, to promptly review the applicable Earn-Out Statement and resolve the Disputed Items. The Buyer and the Seller Representative will request that the Arbitration Firm render its determination within 60 days following submission to it of such Disputed Items. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Arbitration Firm is limited to the Disputed Items. In resolving any Disputed Item, the Arbitration Firm (i) will determine the resolution of the Disputed Items for purposes of establishing the Company’s EBITDA for the corresponding Earn-Out Period, and the resulting Earn-Out Payment for such Earn-Out Period, each in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, including the definitions, calculations and accounting rules set forth herein, (ii) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value claimed for such item by either the Buyer or the Seller Representative or less than the smallest value claimed for such item by either the Buyer of the Seller Representative, and (iii) will base its determination solely on written materials submitted by the Buyer and the Seller Representative (and not on any independent review). Furthermore, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Arbitration Firm shall have the sole and exclusive authority to resolve the Disputed Items even if the resolution of legal issues is required to resolve the Disputed Items. The Parties further agree that the Arbitration Firm shall also have the sole authority to determine whether any such legal issues exist and, to the extent they do, to retain and consult with legal counsel of Arbitration Firm’s choosing with respect to legal conclusions or judgments arising from the Disputed Items, provided that the Parties agree that such legal counsel shall not have any material commercial or professional relationship with any of the Parties. The costs of any fees and expenses of the Arbitration Firm will be borne in equal parts by the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand. All determinations made by the Arbitration

 


Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error on the part of the Arbitration Firm, upon which the Arbitration Firm will deliver to the Buyer and the Seller Representative a revised Earn-Out Statement setting forth the updated calculation of Company’s EBITDA for the applicable Earn-Out Period and the applicable Earn-Out Payment, as modified by the Arbitration Firm’s final determinations, which will be deemed final, non-appealable and binding among the parties hereto for all purposes of this Schedule, and upon which a judgment may be rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction, and will not be subject to further appeal or review.

(b) each Individual Seller shall receive, (i) in the event the Acceleration Event EBITDA is equal to or less than 2021 EBITDA, $0 and (ii) in the event that the Acceleration Event EBITDA is greater than 2021 EBITDA, then an amount equal to: (A) the difference between the Acceleration Event EBITDA and 2021 EBITDA, (B) multiplied by 49%, (C) multiplied by 2, and (D) multiplied by such Individual Seller’s Seller Ownership Percentage.
