At the end of the 30-day period, if the dispute has not been resolved, the Buyer’s CPA firm will select an independent accounting firm of nationally recognized standing that has not represented any of the parties hereto within the preceding two (2) years to review the records used to calculate the EBITDA Price Adjustment.  The Seller will ratify such independent accounting firm within five business days of its selection unless there is an actual conflict of interest as reasonably determined by Seller. The independent accounting firm will make its determination of the EBITDA Price Adjustment, if any, within 60 days of its selection.  The determination of the independent accounting firm will be final and binding on the parties hereto, and upon such determination, payment will be disbursed as set forth in Section 2.1(c). The fees and costs of the independent accounting firm will be borne either by (i) the Buyer in the event that any Purchase Price reduction based on the EBITDA Price Adjustment is reduced by the independent accounting firm by five percent (5%) or more from the amount initially set forth in Buyer’s notice or (ii) the Seller in all other cases.
 
            (d) Certain Definitions and Related Matters .

(ii)           Subject to the limitation set forth in the second sentence of this paragraph, the parties agree that the costs and expenses of the Business which are applied in the calculation of First Year EBITDA may include appropriate charges for shared overhead expenses from Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer.  Buyer agrees that the costs and expenses applied in the calculation of the First Year EBITDA shall not in any event exceed the amount which bears the same proportion to the revenues of the Business during the Determination Period as ninety five percent (95%) of the proportion by which the costs and expenses of the Business (to the extent such costs and expenses would be used in calculating EBITDA, as defined above) for the 2007 calendar year bear to the revenues of the Business during the 2007 calendar year, as reported by Seller to Buyer.

(iv)           At all times during the Determination Period, (A) Buyer will not (i) terminate, eliminate or cease to conduct any material lines of business within the Business, (ii) materially reduce the sales and marketing efforts in support of the Business, or (iii) terminate the employment of Mark Elias, other than for cause, or materially reduce the management team reporting to Mark Elias, except to the extent any such reductions are offset by addition to Elias' staff which are approved by Elias; (B) Buyer will not divert business from customers of the Business to any other Affiliate of Buyer; and (C) Buyer will in good faith exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the EBITDA of the Business during the Determination Period and will not take any intentional action or make any intentional omission that Buyer believes, or reasonably should believe, will have a material adverse impact on the EBITDA of the Business during the Determination Period.
 
 
                                2.3.             Adjustments at the Closing .
 
            (a)   Adjustment to Closing Payment .  Five days prior to the Closing, the Seller and the Buyer will estimate the amount of the Seller’s accounts payable that will exist as of the Closing (the “Estimated Payables”) and will deduct from such amount Seller’s Receivables as of the Closing (excluding doubtful accounts). The net amount will be called the “ Seller’s Net Payables ”.  At the Closing, the amount of cash payable pursuant to Section 2.1(b) will be reduced by the amount of the Seller’s Net Payables.  Pursuant to the Closing, Buyer will assume, and thereafter pay, all such accounts payable as they become due and will purchase, and thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to collect, such Receivables.  Any Receivables not collected six (6) months after the Closing will be transferred back to the Seller, and the Seller will, within 10 days after such transfer, pay the Buyer the face amount thereof.
 
            (b)  Seller Deliveries .    At the Closing, the Seller will deliver to the Buyer:
 
                                             (i)  All customer deposits held by Seller which Seller has not yet paid over to the supplier or refunded, as applicable.
 
                                             (ii) Rebates accrued up to Closing, the cash or face value of free tickets, and the cash value of gift certificates accrued or promised by Seller up to Closing; provided that, if there are rebates, free tickets, or gift certificates that accrue before Closing, but cannot be calculated until afterwards, Buyer may deduct their cash or face value from any payments to Seller as accrued.
 
            (c)   Buyer Reimbursement .   At the Closing, Buyer will reimburse Seller for the deposits and advances paid to travel suppliers by Seller out of Seller’s own funds for which Seller has not yet received payment from a client (e.g., speculative group deposits and prepaid expenses that will benefit Buyer).
 
                 2.4.              Strategic Alliance Agreement .  At the Closing, Buyer and Seller will enter into the Strategic Alliance Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D .

                 2.5              [Reserved]

                2.6              Purchase Price Allocation .  The parties acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price was negotiated and concluded on the basis of the component prices set forth on Schedule 2.6 attached hereto in accordance with the respective fair market values of the Purchased Assets.  The parties agree to report and allocate for Tax purposes (including IRS Form 8594), the Purchase Price as so allocated and will not take any inconsistent or contrary position therewith for any other purpose.
