So at the time of the foul. I could concur w/ the other ref and say the time should of been out and say that because the time should of been out there will be no foul and the quarter/game is done.

You should eventually concur (which means "agree"), but first you'll want to confer (which means "talk to").

Confer with your partner, say that the time ran out well before the foul, of which you are certain since you were counting, explain to the coaches and the table, and don't forget the most important part -- get the heck out of Dodge. In other words, don't stand around discussing. You've ruled, game over, that's it.
