Corio, an individual solely in his capacity as the Seller Representative. Capitalized terms used but not defined in these Earnout Provisions shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

3. Earnout Payments.

(a) No later than one Business Day prior to the consummation of each Realization Event, the Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Seller Representative a written statement (an “Earnout Report”) setting forth a calculation of the Oaktree Proceeds, Cumulative Oaktree Proceeds and the resulting Earnout Consideration Payment, if any, in respect of such Realization Event.

(b) Concurrent with the consummation of each Realization Event, the Acquiror shall pay or cause to be paid to each Seller an amount in cash equal to such Seller’s Fully Diluted Percentage of the Earnout Consideration Payment, if any, set forth in the Earnout Report; provided, however, that in no event shall the Sellers receive in the aggregate (in one or more Earnout Consideration Payments) more than the Maximum Aggregate Earnout Consideration.

(c) The Seller Representative shall have 30 days following the consummation of each Realization Event to dispute any item set forth in the applicable Earnout Report. If the Seller Representative does not deliver a notice of dispute (an “Earnout Objection”) to the Acquiror within such 30-day period, the Earnout Report shall become final and binding on all parties. During the 15-day period following the delivery of an Earnout Objection, the Acquiror and the Seller Representative shall attempt in good faith to agree upon each disputed item identified in the Earnout Objection. If the Acquiror and the Seller Representative should agree to resolve any such disputed items, a statement setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by the Acquiror and the Seller Representative, which statement shall be final and binding on all parties. If the Acquiror and the Seller Representative shall have failed to resolve all disputed items by the end of such 15-day period, the matter shall be submitted to the Valuation Firm, who shall make a decision within 30 days of referral and which decision shall be final and binding on all parties. The fees and expenses of such decision shall be borne by the Acquiror and the Seller Representative in reverse proportion of the dollar amounts rendered to each party to the aggregate amount at issue, as determined by the Valuation Firm at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted.

4. Certain Agreements Regarding Earnout Consideration Payment.

(a) Each party hereto agrees that it shall, with respect to all matters related to these Earnout Provisions, act in good faith and the spirit of fair dealing such that the intent of these Earnout Provisions is carried out to the fullest extent practicable.

(b) Acquiror shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a true and complete record of the Cumulative Oaktree Proceeds, the Received Earnout Consideration and all amounts related to the calculation thereof. Acquiror shall afford, or cause to be afforded, to the Seller Representative and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, to the personnel, properties, books and records of Acquiror and Oaktree, as the case may be, and to any other information, in each case, reasonably requested to assist them in evaluating the Earnout Report. The Acquiror shall authorize its accountants to disclose work papers generated by such accountants in connection with preparing and reviewing the calculations specified in this Section 4(b); provided, that such accountants shall not be obligated to make any work papers available except (i) in accordance with such accountants’ disclosure procedures and then only after the non-client party has signed an agreement relating to access to such work papers in form and substance acceptable to such accountants and (ii) if such disclosure could result in the waiver of the attorney-client or other legal privilege.

(c) No Seller may sell, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of his, her or its right to receive any portion of the Earnout Consideration Payment without Acquiror’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), other than by the laws of descent and distribution or succession by will, legal representative upon incompetence or for bona fide estate planning purposes, pursuant to a divorce or separation agreement or a divorce decree or in connection with bankruptcy; provided that, no such assignment of any right to receive any portion of the Earnout Consideration Payment shall be valid unless such transferee or assignee shall sign a joinder to such Seller’s obligations under these Earnout Provisions.

(d) Each of the Sellers agrees to execute and deliver all other appropriate documents reasonably requested by the Acquiror or any of its Affiliates to evidence the satisfaction of the payment obligations related to these Earnout Provisions.

(e) Immediately upon the time that (i)(A) all of the Original Oaktree Shares have been transferred to third parties unaffiliated with Oaktree and (B) all Oaktree Proceeds have been paid in cash or distributed pursuant to section (2) of the definition of Oaktree Proceeds, or (ii) when the Maximum Aggregate Earnout Consideration is paid in full, these Earnout Provisions will automatically and immediately terminate without any action by any parties hereto.
