Notwithstanding the foregoing if, at the Closing, the Prospect Parties fail to deliver certificates evidencing polices of insurance insuring the AV Entities, the Heritage Parties and their affiliates and the Prospect Parties and their affiliates from and against the tail liability under any of the policies of insurance listed on Schedule 2.18 hereof and written on an occurrence basis (“ Tail Coverage ”), until such tail liability shall have expired, the Heritage Parties may treat the cost of such Tail Coverage as a Balance Sheet Liability for all purposes of this Section 1.6(b)(i).

 

(ii)            Any adjustments under this Section 1.6(b) and under Section 4.6 shall be excluded from the calculation of the Indemnification Floor and the Indemnification Cap, as such terms are defined in Section 6.2 hereof.”

 

(iii)           Enrollment Purchase Price Adjustment .  No later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Heritage Parties and the Prospect Parties shall jointly prepare a reconciliation of the actual Qualified Commercial Enrollee enrollment and the Qualified Senior Enrollee enrollment of the AV Entities as of July 31, 2008, based on the enrollment reports and retroactive additions and deletions for such enrollment received from the health plan insurers for whom the AV Entities provide medical services to enrollees (the “ Enrollment Reconciliation ”).   For purposes of such Enrollment Reconciliation, any Qualified Commercial Enrollees or Qualified Senior Enrollees who were with the AV Entities as shown on Schedule 2.28 under the column “May-08,” and who are, as of July 31, 2008, assigned either to physicians who contract for managed care enrollees exclusively with High Desert Medical Group or to California Desert Medical Group, shall be counted as Qualified Commercial Enrollees and/or Qualified Senior Enrollees who are with the AV Entities as of July 31, 2008.

 

(A)           If such Enrollment Reconciliation shows that there were fewer than 14,865 Qualified Commercial Enrollees (as defined in Section 2.28 below) assigned to the AV Entities, the Prospect Parties shall pay the Heritage Parties $385.48 for each Qualified Commercial Enrollee below 14,122 Qualified Commercial Enrollees.  If such Enrollment Reconciliation shows that there were more than 14,865 Qualified Commercial Enrollees assigned to the AV Entities, the Heritage Parties shall pay the Prospect Parties $385.48 for each Qualified Commercial Enrollee above 15,608 Qualified Commercial Enrollees.

 

(B)            If such Enrollment Reconciliation shows that there were fewer than 1,048 Qualified Senior Enrollees (as defined in Section 2.28 below) assigned to the AV Entities, the Prospect Parties shall pay the Heritage Parties $1,927.40 for each Qualified Senior Enrollee below 996 Senior Enrollees.  If such Enrollment Reconciliation shows that there were more than 1,048 Qualified Senior Enrollees assigned to the AV Entities,

the Heritage Parties shall pay the Prospect Parties $1,927.40 for each Qualified Senior Enrollee above 1,100 Qualified Senior Enrollees.

 

(C)            The payments due under Sections 1.6(b)(ii)(A) and (B) shall be netted, if applicable, and any net amount due shall be paid as provided in Section 1.6(c) below.

 

(iv)           Section 1.6(c) is hereby amended and restated as follows:

 

“(c)          Payment of Adjustment Amounts .

 

(i)             Not more than two (2) business days following completion of each of the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation and the Enrollment Reconciliation, the Prospect Parties and the Heritage Parties shall give the Escrow Agent notice of the amount of the payment (if any) due from the Heritage Parties to the Prospect Parties or from the Prospect Parties to the Heritage Parties.

 

(ii)            If the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation results in a Downward Balance Sheet Adjustment, the Escrow Agent shall promptly pay such Downward Balance Sheet Adjustment to the Heritage Parties as soon as practicable following receipt of notice of the results of the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation and without regard to whether the Enrollment Reconciliation has been determined.  If the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation results in an Upward Balance Sheet Adjustment, the Escrow Agent shall continue to hold such amount until resolution of the Enrollment Reconciliation.  Upon resolution of the Enrollment Reconciliation, the Escrow Agent shall pay the net amount due the Heritage Parties as soon as practicable following receipt of notice of the results of the Enrollment Reconciliation and shall pay any balance remaining in the Escrow after payment of all amounts due the Heritage Parties to the Prospect Parties.

 

(iii)           Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, the payments due following the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation and the Enrollment Reconciliation shall not be limited to the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount held by the Escrow Agent.  If the aggregate net payment due either the Heritage Parties or the Prospect Parties exceeds the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount held by the Escrow Agent, the parties owing such excess amount shall pay the other parties any excess amount not more than ten (10) business days after completion of the last to occur of the Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation and the Enrollment Reconciliation.”

 

(v)            A new Section 1.6(d) is hereby added to the Agreement as follows:

 

“(d)          Disputes .  If the Heritage Parties and the Prospect Parties are unable to agree on either the final Closing Date Balance Sheet Reconciliation or the Enrollment Reconciliation on or before October 13, 2008, then (A) they shall determine the aggregate amount of the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount payable to either or both of the Heritage Parties and/or the Prospect Parties that is not in dispute and shall issue

written instructions to the Escrow Agent to pay such undisputed amount to the Heritage Parties and/or the Prospect Parties, as applicable, on or before October 15, 2008, and (B) by written notice either Party may submit any dispute related to the disputed portion of the Balance Sheet Adjustment Amount for determination by arbitration in Los Angeles, California, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate.  Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, and shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, as those Rules and Procedures are modified by the agreement of the parties in this Section 1.6(d) (as specifically permitted by JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, Rule 2).  The Heritage Parties and the Prospect Parties shall each pay one-half JAMS fees.  Judgment on the Award issued by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  If the Parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator, an arbitrator with experience in accounting matters will be selected pursuant to JAMS Rule 15 (the “ Designated Arbitrator ”).  Within five (5) business days of the selection of the Designated Arbitrator the Designated Arbitrator shall have a scheduling conference, at which time the Designated Arbitrator shall set out a schedule for the conduct of the arbitration, with the hearing to be held within thirty (30) days of the scheduling conference.  The exchange of information required by Rule 17(a) and pre-hearing submissions required by Rule 20(a) shall be completed no less than ten (10) days before the hearing.  Written statements of position may be submitted pursuant to Rule 20(b).  The Designated Arbitrator shall have ten (10) calendar days from the date of the close of the hearing to issue a ruling, in which the Designated Arbitrator shall select either the position of the Heritage Parties or the position of the Prospect Parties as the final determination of each disputed matter.  The Designated Arbitrator shall have no power to alter or compromise the determinations of the Heritage Parties and the Prospect Parties, but must select one or the other as the prevailing position for each disputed matter.  No discovery whatsoever shall be permitted in connection with the arbitration, including document discovery, deposition discovery or interrogatories.”

 

4.              Due Diligence .  The Prospect Parties shall deliver the materials described on Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Due Diligence Materials”), to the Heritage Parties on or before July 8, 2008.  If the Due Diligence Materials are not delivered to the Heritage Parties in materially complete form on or before July 8, 2008, then not later than July 11, 2008, the Heritage Parties shall provide to the Prospect Parties written notice specifying which Due Diligence Materials have not been so provided by the Prospect Parties, in which case the Prospect Parties shall supply any such omitted Due Diligence Materials to the Heritage Parties not later than July 21, 2008.  If such omitted Due Diligence Materials are not provided to the Heritage Parties by J
