Litigation and Contingent Liabilities No litigation (including derivative actions), arbitration proceeding or governmental investigation or proceeding is pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened against any Loan Party which might reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth in Schedule 9.6. Other than any liability incident to such litigation or proceedings, no Loan Party has any material contingent liabilities not listed on Schedule 9.6 or permitted by Section 11.1.
Shared Contracts (a) Except as set forth on Schedule XIII, the Parties shall, and shall cause the members of their respective Groups to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to work together (and, if necessary and desirable, to work with the third party to such Shared Contract) in an effort to divide, partially assign, modify or replicate (in whole or in part) the respective rights and obligations under and in respect of any Shared Contract, such that (a) a member of the SpinCo Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the SpinCo Business (the “SpinCo Portion”), which rights shall be a SpinCo Asset and which obligations shall be a SpinCo Liability, and (b) a member of the Honeywell Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to such Shared Contract not relating to the SpinCo Business (the “Honeywell Portion”), which rights shall be a Honeywell Asset and which obligations shall be a Honeywell Liability. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the division, partial assignment, modification or replication of a Shared Contract unless and until any necessary Consents are obtained or made, as applicable. If the Parties, or their respective Group members, as applicable, are not able to enter into an arrangement to formally divide, partially assign, modify or replicate such Shared Contract prior to the Distribution as contemplated by the previous sentence, then the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Group members to, cooperate in any reasonable and permissible arrangement to provide that, following the Distribution and until the earlier of one year after the Distribution Date and such time as the formal division, partial assignment, modification or replication of such Shared Contract as contemplated by the previous sentence is effected, a member of the SpinCo Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the SpinCo Portion under such Shared Contract and a member of the Honeywell Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the Honeywell Portion under such Shared Contract, it being understood that no Party shall have Liability to the other Party for the failure of any third party to perform its obligations under any such Shared Contract.
(b) Nothing in this Section 2.05 shall require either Party or any member of their respective Groups to contribute capital, pay or grant any consideration or concession in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be reimbursed by the Party or the member of the Party’s Group entitled to such Asset or intended to assume such Liability, as applicable, as promptly as reasonably practicable). For avoidance of doubt, reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, and recording or similar fees shall not include any purchase price, license fee or other payment or compensation for the procurement of any asset secured to replace an Asset in the course of a Party’s obligation under Section 2.05(a).
Permitted Contingent Obligations Contingent Obligations (a) arising from endorsements of Payment Items for collection or deposit in the Ordinary Course of Business; (b) arising from Hedging Agreements permitted hereunder; (c) existing on the Closing Date, and any extension or renewal thereof that does not increase the amount of such Contingent Obligation when extended or renewed; (d) incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business with respect to surety, appeal or performance bonds, or other similar obligations; (e) arising from customary indemnification obligations in favor of purchasers in connection with dispositions of Equipment permitted hereunder; (f) arising under the Loan Documents; (g) guaranties of Permitted Debt; or (h) in an aggregate amount of $250,000 or less at any time.

If the Association determines at any time that an amount of the Financing was used to make a payment for an Excluded Expenditure, the Recipient shall, promptly upon notice from the Association, refund an amount equal to the amount of such payment to the Association. Amounts refunded to the Association upon such request shall be cancelled.
After-Acquired Property If any Pledgor shall at any time after the date hereof (i) obtain any ownership or other rights in and/or to any additional Intellectual Property (including trademark applications for which evidence of the use of such trademarks in interstate commerce has been submitted to and accepted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office pursuant to 15 U.S.C. Section 1060(a) (or a successor provision)) or (ii) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and any such item described in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) (other than any Excluded Property) shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and such Intellectual Property (other than any Excluded Property) shall be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Each Pledgor shall promptly provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing Intellectual Property owned by such Pledgor which is the subject of a registration or application and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) above by execution and delivery, within 90 days (or, in the case of Copyrights, 30 day, or, in each case, such longer period as may be determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) of the acquisition by such Pledgor of such Intellectual Property, of an instrument in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, record, preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent’s lien and security interest in such Intellectual Property. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules 12(a) and 12(b) to the Perfection Certificate to include any Intellectual Property Collateral of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date hereof.
Company Indebtedness The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, timely deliver all notices and take all other administrative actions required to facilitate (i) the termination of commitments, repayment in full of all outstanding loans or other obligations, release of any Liens securing such loans or obligations and guarantees in connection therewith, and replacement of or cash collateralization of any issued letters of credit in respect of the Credit Facility on or before the Closing Date and (ii) to the extent reasonably requested in writing by Parent, no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date with respect to any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness in respect of the Credit Facility) incurred by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof in compliance with Section 6.1(b)(xi) (it being understood that the Company shall promptly and in any event no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date notify Parent in writing of the amount of any such Indebtedness incurred or to be incurred and expected to be outstanding on the Closing Date), repayment in full of all obligations in respect of such Indebtedness and release of any Liens securing such Indebtedness and guarantees in connection therewith, in each case, on the Closing Date. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver to Parent no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Closing Date payoff letters with respect to the Company Credit Facility and, to the extent reasonably requested by Parent in writing no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, any Indebtedness incurred by any of the Company and its Subsidiaries after the date hereof in compliance with Section 6.1(b)(xi) (each, a “Payoff Letter”) in form and substance customary for transactions of this type, from the persons, or the applicable agent on behalf of the persons, to which such Indebtedness is owed, which Payoff Letters together with any related release documentation shall, among other things, include the payoff amount and provide for Liens (and guarantees), if any, granted in connection therewith relating to the assets, rights and properties of the Company and its Subsidiaries securing such Indebtedness and any other obligations secured thereby, upon the payment of the amount set forth in the applicable Payoff Letter on or prior to the Closing Date, to be released and terminated. Upon at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice from the Company that the Company has determined, after reasonable consultation with Parent, that it will not at the time of the Real Estate Purchase (and without giving effect to the payment of the Real Estate Purchase Price or any other payment under this Agreement) have sufficient unencumbered and available cash, net of “cage cash”, cash on hand required by any Governmental Entity, the reasonably estimated additional amount of cash necessary to ensure the sound operation of the Company’s business consistent with past practice, and any other restricted cash, to pay in full the outstanding Indebtedness in respect of the Credit Facility, then to the extent of such shortfall Parent will extend an unsecured loan to the Company on the day of the Closing so that, together with such net unencumbered and available cash, the proceeds of such loan are sufficient to pay in full the outstanding Indebtedness in respect of the Credit Facility as may be necessary to release all Liens and obligations in respect thereof at the time of, or immediately prior to, the Real Estate Purchase, and the terms of such loan shall be reasonable for the circumstance as negotiated in good faith by Parent and the Company.
Contingent Liability Where we effect or arrange a Transaction, you should note that, depending upon the nature of the Transaction, you may be liable to make further payments when the Transaction fails to be completed or upon the earlier settlement or closing out of your position. You may be required to make further variable payments by way of margin against the purchase price of the investment, instead of paying (or receiving) the whole purchase (or sale) price immediately. The movement in the market price of your investment will affect the amount of margin payment you will be required to make. You need to monitor your margin levels on a daily basis. You agree to pay us on demand such sums by way of margin as are required from time to time as we may in our discretion reasonably require for the purpose of protecting ourselves against loss or risk of loss on present, future or contemplated Transactions under this Agreement. Please note that in the event that you fail to meet a margin call, we may immediately close out the position. Margin must be paid in cash in currency acceptable by us, as requested from time to time by the Company. Cash Margin paid to us is held as client money in accordance with the requirements of the Client Money Rules. Margin deposits shall be made by wire transfer, credit card, e-wallet or by such other means as The Company may direct. If there is an Event of Default or this Agreement terminates, we shall set-off the balance of cash margin owed by us to you against your obligations (as reasonably valued by us). The net amount, if any, payable between us following such set-off, shall take into account the Liquidation Amount payable under Clause 15 (Netting). You agree to execute such further documents and to take such further steps as we may reasonably require perfecting our security interest over and obtain legal title to the Secured Obligations. You undertake neither to create nor to have outstanding any security interest whatsoever over, nor to agree to assign or transfer, any of the cash margin transferred to us, except a lien routinely imposed on all securities in a clearing system in which such securities may be held. In addition, and without prejudice to any rights to which we may be entitled under this Agreement or any Applicable Regulations, we shall have a general lien on all cash held by us or our Associates or our nominees on your behalf until the satisfaction of the Secured Obligations.
Excluded Assets Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchased Assets shall not include the following assets (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”):
(a) all cash, cash equivalents (including marketable securities and short-term investments), bank accounts and their balances (including related books and records), lockboxes and deposits of, and any rights or interests in, the cash management system of Seller, including uncleared checks and drafts received or deposited for the account of Seller;
(b) all rights under any Contracts, including those listed on Schedule 2.02(b), but excluding the Assumed Contracts;

(h) the Tax Returns and Tax records and reports of Seller other than those that are Purchased Assets;
(i) all insurance policies of Seller, including claims thereunder and any claims or benefits in, to or under any express or implied warranties from suppliers of goods or services relating to Inventory sold by Seller prior to Closing;
(j) all of Seller’s intercompany account balances with its Affiliates, including those related to the Products;
(k) all assets, properties, and interests rights primarily used in or held for use in connection with the operation of Seller’s wound care and urology business;
(l) the rights that accrue or will accrue to Seller under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; and
(m) the other assets of Seller that are identified on Schedule 2.02(m).
Contingent Payments (a) Following the Closing and as additional consideration for the Securities, Buyer shall make, or cause the Acquired Entities to make, to Sellers (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 1.4) additional cash payments based on the performance of the Acquired Entities during each of the twelve month periods ending (i) December 31, 2006, (ii) December 31, 2007, (iii) December 31, 2008 and (iv) December 31, 2009 (each, a “Contingent Payment Period”). With respect to each Contingent Payment Period, Buyer shall make, or cause the Acquired Entities to make, to Sellers cash payments in an aggregate amount equal to the amount, if any, by which EBITDA during such Contingent Payment Period exceeds $8,000,000 (each such excess, if and to the extent earned for any such Contingent Payment Period, a “Contingent Payment”). The Contingent Payment, if any, for each Contingent Payment Period shall be paid by Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities as follows:
(A) Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities shall pay to each Seller an amount equal to 50% of such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of such Contingent Payment in accordance with Section 1.4(b) below and (B) Buyer or (at Buyer’s direction) the Acquired Entities shall pay to each Seller an amount equal to 50% of such Seller’s Pro Rata Share of such Contingent Payment on April ___, 2012.
