Pre-Closing Reorganization Buyer agrees that any or all of the Sellers may, at any time before Closing, implement a reorganization (“Pre-Closing Reorganization”) in the manner described at SCHEDULE T, provided that any new shareholders arising as a result of such reorganization will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, deemed to be “Sellers” for the purpose of this Agreement, obliged to sell their shares in the Relevant Holdco to the Buyer on the terms and conditions contained herein, and required to provide all of the representations, warranties and covenants that are provided by the Sellers herein, shall assume all liabilities and duties of any shareholder or Seller for whom such shareholder is the successor in interest, and provided further that the Pre-Closing Reorganization: (a) will not have the effect of imposing any incremental obligations for Taxes for the Buyer, the Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries; and (b) will not have an adverse effect on Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or Assets or impose any cost, liability or expense on any of them that is not reimbursed by Sellers. No Pre-Closing Reorganization will be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Sellers hereunder has been breached, other than pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.9 but excluding the consideration of the Competition Act Approval. The Sellers will provide written notice to the Buyer upon completion of any Pre-Closing Reorganization together with an updated SCHEDULE A reflecting any changes to Sellers, Shares and Purchase Price allocation resulting from the Pre-Closing Reorganization (which updated SCHEDULE A will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of this Agreement), and access to all relevant documentation relating to such Pre-Closing Reorganization.
Pre-Closing Promptly upon the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall notify the Manufacturer regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Seller shall fully cooperate with Buyer, and take all reasonable steps to assist Buyer, in Buyer’s efforts to obtain its own similar Dealer Sales and Service Agreements with the Manufacturer. All actions to be taken at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement will be deemed to have occurred simultaneously, and no action, document or transaction will be deemed to have been taken, delivered or effected, until all such actions, documents and transactions have been taken, delivered or effected. Promptly after the Closing, Seller shall transfer to Buyer certificates of title or origin for all vehicles and all of its registration lists, owner follow-up lists and service files on hand as of the Closing, provided that such lists and files relate to the Assets. If Seller presents assets for purchase post-Closing that would have otherwise been Assets, then such assets may be purchased at a mutually agreed to price or otherwise retained by Seller. Buyer is not required to submit an offer. This does not apply to in-transit vehicles from the Manufacturer. Buyer shall retain and safeguard the pre-Closing customer paper deal jackets retained by Buyer in accordance with law, and, until Buyer destroys such records in accordance with company policy in effect from time to time, Seller shall have reasonable access to Seller’s pre-Closing customer records (e.g., paper deal jackets) and any records related to Assigned Contracts after the Closing for any legitimate purpose, such as (by way of example and not by limitation) for resolving customer inquiries.
