The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Frequency and Korro in the same proportion that the disputed amount of the Frequency Net Cash that was unsuccessfully disputed by such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total disputed amount of the Frequency Net Cash amount and such portion of the costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm borne by Korro and any other fees, costs or expenses incurred by Korro following the Anticipated Closing Date in connection with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.8(e) shall be deducted from the final determination of the amount of Frequency Net Cash, to the extent of available amounts.
