Specified Consents. (a) The Parties shall, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof and for a period of twelve (12) months following the Distribution Date, cooperate with each other and use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain: (i) the Transfer or reissuance to SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group of all licenses, permits, registrations, approvals and authorizations of any member of the SpinCo Group or the Citrix Group issued or granted by any Governmental Authority prior to the Distribution Effective Time to the extent required to operate the SpinCo Business following the Distribution Date in the same manner as currently conducted by Citrix and its Subsidiaries; (ii) all Consents of any landlord under any Transferred Leased Real Property required to consummate the Separation or the Distribution; and (iii) Consents from the Third Parties identified on Schedule 2.4(a) and such other material Consents as may be reasonably requested by LogMeIn after the date hereof, provided, in the case of any such Consent requested by LogMeIn, that (A) such Consent is required to be obtained in connection with the Separation or the Merger, and (B) the failure to obtain such Consent would result in the loss of a monetary benefit by SpinCo or would otherwise adversely affect the SpinCo Business following the Distribution (each, a “Specified Consent”); provided further, that no Party nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to make any payment, incur any Liability or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any Third Party, in each case, that is not otherwise required to be made by the applicable Party or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any existing Contract (including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees), to obtain any such Consent. For the avoidance of doubt, the required efforts and responsibilities of the Parties to seek the regulatory approvals or clearances contemplated by antitrust, competition or trade regulation filings, Section 7.06(f) of the Merger Agreement and Parent Stockholder Approval shall be governed by the Merger Agreement. (b) If and to the extent that any Specified Consent with respect to any SpinCo Asset, SpinCo Liability, Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability has not been obtained prior to the Distribution Effective Time, then notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Transfer to the SpinCo Group of any such SpinCo Asset or SpinCo Liability, or to the Citrix Group of any such Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability, shall, unless the Parties shall mutually otherwise determine, be automatically deemed deferred, and any such purported Transfer or Assumption shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Consent has been obtained or made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Asset or Liability shall continue to constitute a SpinCo Asset, a SpinCo Liability, an Excluded Asset or an Excluded Liability, as applicable, and be subject to Section 2.4(c). If and when the legal or contractual impediments the presence of which caused the deferral of Transfer of any Asset or Liability pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) are removed or any Consents the absence of which caused the deferral of Transfer of any Asset or Liability pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) are obtained, the Transfer of the applicable Asset or Liability shall be effected promptly without further consideration in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Ancillary Agreement(s) and shall, to the extent possible without the imposition of any undue cost on any Party and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, be deemed to have become effective as of the Distribution Effective Time. The obligations set forth in this Section 2.4(b) shall terminate on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Distribution Date or, if earlier with respect to any Contract, upon the expiration of the term of the Contract (without any obligation to renew or extend). (c) If the Transfer of any Asset or Liability intended to be Transferred is not consummated prior to or at the Distribution Effective Time as a result of the provisions of Section 2.4(b) or for any other reason (including any misallocated transfers subject to Section 2.1(c)), then, insofar as reasonably possible (taking into account any applicable restrictions or considerations, in each case relating to the contemplated Tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby) and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Person retaining such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, (i) shall thereafter hold such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, in trust for the use and benefit and burden of the Person entitled thereto (and at such Person’s sole expense) until the consummation of the Transfer thereof (or as otherwise determined by the Parties); and (ii) with respect to any deferred Assets or Liabilities, use reasonable best efforts to develop and implement mutually acceptable arrangements to place the Person entitled to receive such Asset or Liability, insofar as reasonably possible, in substantially the same position as if such Asset or Liability had been Transferred as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Asset or Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, dominion, ability to enforce the rights under or with respect to and control and command over such Asset or Liability, are to inure from and after the Distribution Effective Time to the applicable member or members of the Citrix Group or the SpinCo Group entitled to the receipt of such Asset or required to Assume such Liability. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Parties agree that to the fullest extent permitted by Law, (x) as of the Distribution Effective Time, each applicable member of Citrix Group and the SpinCo Group shall be deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the Assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be deemed to have Assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such Person is entitled to acquire or required to Assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and (y) each of Citrix and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its respective Group to, (A) treat for all Tax purposes the deferred Assets as Assets having been Transferred to and owned by the Person entitled to such Assets not later than the Distribution Effective Time, (B) treat for all Tax purposes the deferred Liabilities as having been Assumed by the Person intended to be subject to such Liabilities not later than the Distribution Effective Time, and (C) neither report nor take any Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment (unless required by a change in applicable Tax Law or good faith resolution of a Tax Contest). The obligations set forth in this Section 2.4(c) shall terminate on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Distribution Date or, if earlier with respect to any Contract, upon the expiration of the term of the Contract (without any obligation to renew or extend). Any Person retaining an Asset or a Liability due to the deferral of the Transfer of such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, shall not be required, in connection with the foregoing, to make any payments, incur any Liability or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, regardless of any provision to the contrary in any underlying Contract, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any Third Party, except to the extent that the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability, as applicable, agrees to reimburse and make whole the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability, to such Person’s reasonable satisfaction, for any payment or other accommodation made by the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability at the request of the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 2.4(c), each of Citrix and SpinCo agrees that in the event that any Third Party requests that the Party holding such Asset or Liability make a payment or offer or grant an accommodation to obtain a Consent and the other Party provides notice in writing to the Party holding such Asset or Liability that such other Party does not agree to reimburse or make whole the Party holding such Asset or Liability in connection therewith, the other Party shall not be entitled to the benefits of the provisions in, and the Party holding such Asset or Liability will not be obligated to take any efforts under, this Section 2.4(c) in respect of any SpinCo Asset, SpinCo Liability, Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability, as the case may be, which Transfer is subject to such Consent. (d) The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to separate the Shared Contracts into separate Contracts effective as of the Distribution Effective Time so that from and after such time, the SpinCo Group will be entitled to rights and benefits and shall Assume the related portion of Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent related to the SpinCo Business and the Citrix Group will have the rights and benefits and shall Assume the related portion of Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent related to the Citrix Business. Upon such separation of a Shared Contract, the separated Contract will be a SpinCo Asset or an Excluded Asset, as applicable. If the counterparty to any Shared Contract that is entitled under the terms of such Shared Contract to Consent to the separation of such Shared Contract has not provided such Consent, the terms of Section 2.4(c) shall apply to such Contract mutatis mutandis. For the avoidance of doubt, Citrix shall not be required to seek or obtain any Consent with respect to a Shared Contract (i) that is not a Specified Consent, and (ii) unless receipt of such Consent would be necessary for the SpinCo Group to have rights and benefits under such Shared Contract; provided further, that if and when any Consent with respect to a Shared Contract is obtained in accordance with this Section 2.4(d), such Shared Contract will be separated in accordance with this Section 2.4(d). The obligations set forth in this Section 2.4(d) shall terminate on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Distribution Date or, if earlier with respect to any Shared Contract, upon the expiration of the term of the Shared Contract (without any obligation to renew or extend).

The obligations set forth in this Section 2.4(c) shall terminate on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Distribution Date or, if earlier with respect to any Contract, upon the expiration of the term of the Contract (without any obligation to renew or extend). Any Person retaining an Asset or a Liability due to the deferral of the Transfer of such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, shall not be required, in connection with the foregoing, to make any payments, incur any Liability or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, regardless of any provision to the contrary in any underlying Contract, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any Third Party, except to the extent that the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability, as applicable, agrees to reimburse and make whole the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability, to such Person’s reasonable satisfaction, for any payment or other accommodation made by the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability at the request of the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability.
