- A cash payment subject to working capital adjustments and transaction expense deductions.
- Retention of escrow funds to cover potential working capital shortfalls and indemnification claims.
- Payment for accounts receivable collected post-closing through December 31, 2008, in excess of pre-closing balances.
- Redemption of SH&E Employee Stock Ownership Plan shares prior to closing.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Outlook: The closing of the merger is expected to occur by the end of the calendar year 2007, subject to customary closing conditions.
Risks and Contingencies: The final purchase price is contingent upon working capital adjustments, the resolution of indemnification claims, and the collection of specific accounts receivable. The filing notes no other material relationships between ICF and SH&E outside of this agreement.
