The relation (percentage) of the employees in the number of the Excess Number of Employees from the total number of Current Employees shall be determined on a monthly basis starting with December 2022 and ending with March 2023 (“Excess Employee Percentage”), whereby the number of Current Employees in each month and the Excess Number of Employees in each month for the purpose of this calculation shall be determined on the last day of each month, the Excess Number of Employees thereby being the number of Current Employees minus 250. In order to calculate the Reimbursement Loss Portion from the total Wages for each month starting December 2022 and ending March 2023 four partial amounts consisting of the Monthly Wage Portion and the Monthly Severance Amount shall be added up.

(b) Seller shall provide a draft calculation of the Reimbursement Loss Portion to Purchaser by 15 April 2023 (“Preliminary Reimbursement Loss Portion”).
