### Additional notes
Tried to find information about this error on google without success. Hope, anyone can help me understanding this error and necessary steps to avoid it.

Start with vendor/magento/data-migration-tool/src/Migration/Step/PostProcessing/Data/DeletedRecordsCounter.php at line 93, then trace the call from Data.php line 110 during the migrate:data command. Reproduce the failure with the 1.9.4.5 configuration and inspect why array_merge receives null. Done means the Post Processing Step completes successfully without the reported error.
