2.2. Determination of Estimated Initial Purchase Price. At least two business days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certificate executed on behalf of Seller by the Chief Executive Officer of Seller, dated the date of its delivery, stating that there has been conducted under the supervision of such officer a review of all relevant information and data then available and setting forth Seller’s best good faith estimate of the Initial Purchase Price (the “Estimated Initial Purchase Price”), including an estimate of the Closing Working Capital (as defined in Section 2.3(a)) that such Chief Executive Officer anticipates based upon the most recent available financial statements will be reflected on the Closing Statement prepared in accordance with Section 2.3. Such Estimated Initial Purchase Price shall be subject to approval by Buyer.
2.3. Determination of Initial Purchase Price.
(a) Within 30 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) the Working Capital (as defined below) as of the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”) and (ii) the Initial Purchase Price.
(b) Seller may review such statement and, within 10 days after the date of such receipt, may deliver to Buyer a certificate setting forth its objections to those items and amounts reflected in the Preliminary Closing Statement, together with a summary of the reasons therefor and calculations which, in its view, are necessary to eliminate such objections. Any items and amounts not identified and properly objected to by Seller in such certificate of objection shall be deemed to have been agreed to by Seller. If Seller fails to deliver such certificate of objection within such 10-day period, the Preliminary Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted and agreed to by Seller in the form in which it was delivered by Buyer and shall be final and binding upon the parties as the “Closing Statement” for purposes of this Agreement, and the determination of the Closing Working Capital and the Initial Purchase Price set forth therein shall be final and binding as the “Closing Working Capital” and the “Initial Purchase Price” for purposes of this Agreement.
(c) If Seller duly delivers a certificate of objection pursuant to Section 2.3(b), Buyer and Seller shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Working Capital Adjustments”), no later than 10 days following Buyer’s receipt of such certificate, the disputed items or amounts identified in such certificate. If Buyer and Seller reach agreement in writing on such disputed items or amounts, the Preliminary Closing Statement as adjusted by the Agreed Working Capital Adjustments shall be final and binding as the “Closing Statement” for purposes of this Agreement, and the determination of the Closing Working Capital and the Initial Purchase Price set forth therein shall be final and binding as the “Closing Working Capital” and the “Initial Purchase Price” for purposes of this Agreement.

The Preliminary Closing Statement, after giving effect to any Agreed Working Capital Adjustments and to the resolution of disputed matters by the Accounting Firm, shall be final and binding as the “Closing Statement” for purposes of this Agreement, and the determination of the Closing Working Capital and the Initial Purchase Price set forth therein shall be final and binding as the “Closing Working Capital” and the “Initial Purchase Price” for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Accounting Firm” means an accounting firm that (i) is reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller, (ii) has no material relationship with Buyer, Seller or their respective Affiliates or other material conflict and (iii) agrees to undertake the engagement for fees and expenses that are reasonably acceptable to both Buyer and Seller.

With respect to matters submitted to the Accounting Firm under this Section 2.3, the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by the party (either Buyer or Seller) whose calculation of the Closing Working Capital is further from the calculation of the Closing Working Capital as determined by the Accounting Firm. If the respective calculations of Buyer and Seller are equally close to the calculation of the Closing Working Capital as determined by the Accounting Firm, then the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne equally, half by Buyer and half by Seller.
(f) If the Estimated Initial Purchase Price is greater than the Initial Purchase Price, Seller and each of the Shareholders shall, within 10 business days after the Closing Statement is finalized pursuant to this Section 2.3, make payment by wire transfer to Buyer in immediately available funds of the amount of such difference, together with interest at a rate of 7% per annum from the Closing Date to the date of such payment. If the Estimated Initial Purchase Price is less than the Initial Purchase Price, Buyer shall, within 10 business days after the Closing Statement is finalized pursuant to this Section 2.3, make payment by wire transfer to Seller in immediately available funds of the amount of such difference, together with interest at a rate of 7% per annum from the Closing Date to the date of such payment.
(g) For purposes of this Agreement, “Working Capital” means, as of any date of determination, the excess of the total current assets of Seller included in the Purchased Assets as of such date over the total current liabilities of Seller included in the Assumed Liabilities, determined on a basis consistent with the past practices of Seller and consistent with the methodologies, practices and principles used in the preparation of the Financial Statements (except as otherwise provided in this definition and without regard to any purchase accounting adjustments arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby). In determining the amount of such total current assets and total current liabilities hereunder, (i) all accounting entries shall be taken into account regardless of their amount and all known errors and omissions corrected; (ii) all proper adjustments shall be made; (iii) the value of accounts receivable shall (A) be reduced by the amount of a customary reserve for uncollectible accounts and (B) exclude any accounts receivable from any Affiliates (as defined in Section 5.18) of Seller or either of the Shareholders; (iv) deferred tax assets shall be excluded from the determination of total current assets; (v) accrued expenses shall exclude amounts owed to either of the Shareholders or any Affiliates of either of the Shareholders; and (vi) the items set forth in Schedule 2.3(g) shall be pro-rated as of the Closing Date.

(vii) “Combined Credit Amount” means the total amount of all refunds and credits paid or credited by Buyer through the first anniversary of the Closing Date pursuant to the terms (as in effect on the Effective Date of the Agreement) of the Assumed Contracts referenced in Schedule 2.4; provided that Buyer has not materially reduced the number of personnel working on implementation and support services for the acquired business. For the avoidance of doubt, a customer’s failure to pay a fee when due or scheduled shall not be considered a refund or credit under the preceding sentence.
(b) As promptly as practicable following the first anniversary of the Closing Date (but not later than 60 days after such date), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a report (the “Preliminary Revenue Report”) setting forth the amount of Revenue (as defined in Section 2.4(a)) recognized by Buyer during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Period”).

(d) If Seller duly delivers a certificate of objection pursuant to Section 2.4(c), Buyer and Seller shall use their reasonable efforts to resolve by written agreement (the “Agreed Adjustments”), no later than 10 days following Buyer’s receipt of such certificate, the disputed items or amounts identified in such certificate. If Buyer and Seller reach agreement in writing on such disputed items or amounts, the Preliminary Revenue Report as adjusted by the Agreed Adjustments shall be final and binding as the “Healthcare Automation Revenue Report” for purposes of this Agreement.
