Section 6.05 shall apply following delivery of a Metric Dispute Notice.

SECTION

6.04 Agreed Adjustments. From time to time during the Term, each Party may propose to the other Party adjustments to the calculation of EBITDA hereunder for non-recurring costs and expenses and one-time unusual revenues with an explanation for the rationale for such proposed adjustments. Each Party agrees to review such proposed adjustments in good faith and will reasonably consent to such proposed adjustments. All proposed adjustments mutually agreed upon by the Parties shall constitute the “Agreed Adjustments.” If a Party does not agree with a proposed adjustment, the Party shall provide written notice to the proposing Party with an explanation for the rationale for such rejection. NICK and MR Holder agree to meet within fifteen (15) days after notice of a rejection of a proposed adjustment in order to negotiate in good faith the proposed adjustment or an alternative thereto. Agreed Adjustments are intended to include the type of adjustments made in calculating the Closing Adjusted EBITDA and reflected on Annex A.

SECTION

6.05 Dispute Resolution. If NICK and MR Holder agree in writing as to the resolution of any objection in a Dispute Notice, the Noticed Item set forth in the Notice and (with any such changes as may be agreed upon) shall be final and binding. NICK and MR Holder agree to negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve any such objections in a Dispute Notice, provided that NICK, on the one hand, and MR Holder, on the other hand, shall each have the right, at any time, by written notice to the other, unilaterally to terminate all negotiations with respect to such objections or changes. Not later than thirty (30) days after either MR Holder or NICK shall have terminated such negotiations, then MR Holder and NICK shall submit the remaining issues in dispute to an impartial nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants (provided that neither MR Holder nor NICK nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have utilized the services of such firm in the five (5) years prior to the date of the Dispute Notice), selected by the mutual written agreement of MR Holder and NICK (the “Independent Accountant”). The Independent Accountant shall have sole authority to determine any and all substantive and procedural matters pertaining to the resolution of the dispute between MR Holder and NICK arising under this Section 6.05; provided, however, that the Independent Accountant shall only review those unresolved items and amounts specifically set forth in and objected to in the Dispute Notice, and the Independent Accountant’s determination of each disputed amount shall

be no more than the highest amount claimed by either MR Holder or NICK, nor less than the lowest amount claimed by either MR Holder or NICK, in each case with respect to such disputed amount. MR Holder and NICK shall cooperate with the Independent Accountant in all respects, including providing the Independent Accountant with appropriate supporting documentation used in preparation and review of their calculations of the Noticed Item. The Independent Accountant shall, within thirty (30) days following its selection, deliver to the Parties a written report determining the proper treatment of the disputed items. The determination of the disputed amounts in the calculations of the Noticed Item by the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding upon the Parties hereto, absent manifest error. The costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by the Parties in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accountant, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accountant at the time the determination is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted to the Independent Accountant.
