Certain Closing Adjustments Clause Samples

The 'Certain Closing Adjustments' clause defines how specific financial adjustments will be made to the purchase price or other key terms at the time of closing a transaction. Typically, this clause outlines the process for reconciling estimated values, such as working capital, cash, debt, or other balance sheet items, with their actual amounts as of the closing date. For example, if the actual working capital is higher or lower than a target amount, the purchase price may be increased or decreased accordingly. The core function of this clause is to ensure that both parties receive a fair and accurate settlement based on the true financial position of the business at closing, thereby preventing disputes and aligning expectations.

The following items shall be prorated and adjusted between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date, except as otherwise specified: 9.1 Prepaid rents and other prepaid charges collected by Seller from Tenant for the month of Closing shall be prorated by credit to Purchaser. Rents and other charges which relate to periods prior to Closing which have not been collected as of Closing (collectively "Delinquent Rents") shall not be prorated. Seller shall have the right to collect Delinquent Rents from Tenant, which may include legal proceedings against Tenant as Seller deems appropriate, provided no such action shall demand possession or termination of the Lease. Any rents collected after closing shall be applied against the receivable as indicated by Tenant, provided if not specifically identifiable, rents collected after Closing from Tenant shall be applied: (i) first, rents due for the month in which such payment is received, (iii) second, to rents attributable to any period after Closing which are past due on the date of receipt, and (iv) third, to Delinquent Rents. After Closing, Seller shall promptly remit to Purchaser any rents received relating to periods after Closing and Purchaser shall promptly remit to Seller any Delinquent Rents received. The provision of this Section 9.1 shall survive Closing. 9.2 Real estate taxes, water, electricity, sewer, gas, telephone and other utilities and charges which are paid directly by Tenant under the Lease shall not be prorated. 9.3 To the extent that errors are discovered in, or additional information becomes available with respect to, the prorations and allocations made at Closing, Seller and Purchaser agree to make such post-Closing adjustments as may be necessary to correct any inaccuracy; however, all prorations (except for prorations and allocations of (i) ad valorem taxes, (ii) tenant reimbursables of taxes and operating expenses, as applicable and (iii) prorations or allocations that are then currently in dispute) shall be final no later than six (6) months after Closing.

  • Post-Closing Adjustments As soon as practicable after the Closing, but in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a final settlement statement (the “Final Settlement Statement”) setting forth each adjustment or payment that was not finally determined as of the Closing and showing the calculation of such adjustments and the resulting Final Purchase Price. Seller shall make its workpapers and other information available to Purchaser to review in order to confirm the adjustments shown on Seller’s draft. As soon as practicable after receipt of the Final Settlement Statement, but in no event later than sixty (60) days thereafter, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a written report containing any changes that Purchaser proposes to make to the Final Settlement Statement. Any failure by Purchaser to deliver to Seller the written report detailing Purchaser’s proposed changes to the Final Settlement Statement within sixty (60) days following Purchaser’s receipt of the Final Settlement Statement shall be deemed an acceptance by Purchaser of the Final Settlement Statement as submitted by Seller. The parties shall agree with respect to the changes proposed by Purchaser, if any, no later than sixty (60) days after Seller receives from Purchaser the written report described above containing Purchaser’s proposed changes. If the Purchaser and the Seller cannot then agree upon the Final Settlement Statement, the determination of the amount of the Final Settlement Statement shall be submitted to a mutually agreed firm of independent public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”). The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto and shall be enforceable against any party hereto in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 12.1 shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser equally. The date upon which such agreement is reached or upon which the Final Purchase Price is established, shall be herein called the “Final Settlement Date.” In the event (a) the Final Purchase Price is more than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such difference, or (b) the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Final Purchase Price, Seller shall pay to Purchaser the amount of such difference, in either event by wire transfer in immediately available funds. Payment by Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall be within five (5) days of the Final Settlement Date.

As soon as practical, but in any event within thirty (30) days following the Closing, the Sellers shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer an inventory determination (the "Inventory Determination") comparing the cost of the Inventory as of July 31, 1996, which is set forth in Schedule 2.3 hereto, with ------------ the actual cost (including the actual and reasonable freight and handling costs associated with acquiring and delivering the Inventory to the Sam's Club Locations) of the Inventory transferred on the Closing.

The disputed items shall be submitted to the selected accounting firm within thirty days after such accounting firm is selected. The determination by such accounting firm shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, shall be made within sixty days after such disputed items are so submitted and shall be made a part of the Final Statement.

  • Post-Closing Adjustment (a) Not more than twenty (20) days after the Closing Date, Purchasers shall deliver to Sellers a certificate of an authorized officer setting forth Purchasers’ calculation, as of the Closing Date, of the Net Working Capital (the “Proposed Closing Net Working Capital”). Such statement shall include separate line items, as of the Closing, for (i) cash and cash equivalents included in the Purchased Assets, (ii) the amount of outstanding accounts receivable included in the Purchased Assets, and (iii) the amount of Assumed Liabilities described in Section 2.7(a). (b) If within ten (10) days following delivery of the Proposed Closing Net Working Capital calculation Sellers have not given Purchasers written notice of their objection to the Proposed Closing Net Working Capital calculation (which notice shall state the basis of Sellers’ objection(s)), then the Proposed Closing Net Working Capital calculated by Purchasers (or any portion of the calculation to which Sellers do not object) shall constitute the “Final Closing Net Working Capital,” shall be binding and conclusive on the Parties. (c) If Sellers give Purchasers timely notice of objection, and if Sellers and Purchasers fail to resolve the issues outstanding with respect to the Proposed Closing Net Working Capital within ten (10) days of Purchasers’ receipt of Sellers’ objection notice, Sellers and Purchasers shall submit the issues remaining in dispute to the Houston office of Deloitte LLP (the “Independent Accountants”) for resolution. If for any reason the Houston office of Deloitte LLP is unwilling to act as the Independent Accountants, the Independent Accounts shall be such other recognized national or regional independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to Purchasers and Sellers. (d) If issues are submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution, (1) Seller and Purchasers shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that Party or its agents and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accountants; and (2) the determination by the Independent Accountants, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to both Seller and Purchasers within twenty (20) days of the submission to the Independent Accountants of the issues remaining in dispute, shall constitute the “Final Closing Net Working Capital,” shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties and shall be used in computing the Adjustment Amount.

If the Estimated Net Working Capital is greater than the Final Closing Net Working Capital, then the Sellers shall return to Purchasers for cancellation the number of Hercules Shares (rounded to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (A) such excess, divided by (B) 3.36.
