as of the date of entering into such Contract or amendment, reasonably be expected to restrict or delay Xxxxx’s ability to pay the Deferred Consideration when due, or (B) take any other action with the specific intention of not paying or delaying the payment of the Deferred Consideration when due.

2.3 Closing Consideration Adjustment.

(a) As soon as practicable, but no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Xxxxx shall prepare and deliver to Seller: (i) a written statement (the “Statement”) containing its calculation of the Closing Consideration and the Closing Consideration Elements, in each case, calculated in accordance with the Balance Sheet Rules and this Agreement, and (ii) reasonable supporting detail of all of the foregoing. Buyer and the Company acknowledge that no adjustments shall be made to the Base Closing Consideration, Deferred Consideration or Working Capital Target Amount. Once Buyer has delivered the Statement, the Statement shall be deemed irrevocable by Buyer for purposes of the calculation of the Final Closing Consideration, and Buyer shall be foreclosed and barred in all respects from amending, supplementing or modifying the Statement and related calculations following delivery to Seller except in connection with resolving a Notice of Disagreement (including for the avoidance of doubt, in any materials submitted to the Accounting Firm) pursuant to Section 2.3(b). If Buyer fails to timely deliver any of the Statement in accordance with the foregoing, then, at the election of Seller in its sole discretion, either (i) the Estimated Closing Consideration shall be deemed final and binding upon the parties or (ii) Seller may retain (at the expense of Buyer) a nationally recognized independent accounting firm to review the Company Group’s books, review the calculation of the Estimated Closing Consideration and make any adjustments necessary thereto consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 and the determination of such accounting firm shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto; provided, however, that Seller reserves any and all other rights granted to it in this Section 2.3.

(b) The Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the thirtieth (30^th) day following the date on which the Statement was delivered to Seller unless Seller delivers written notice of its disagreement with the Statement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Buyer prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall (i) specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted and (ii) only include good faith disagreements based on the Closing Consideration or the Closing Consideration Elements not being calculated in accordance with the Balance Sheet Rules or the other terms of this Agreement. If a Notice of Disagreement is delivered to Buyer in a timely manner, then the Statement (as revised in accordance with this sentence) shall become final and binding upon the parties on the earlier of (A) the date Buyer and Seller resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement and (B) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved in writing by the Accounting Firm. During the fourteen (14)-day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, Buyer and Seller shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, and all such discussions and communications related thereto shall (unless otherwise agreed by Xxxxx and Seller in writing) be governed by, and treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of, Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. If at the end of such fourteen (14)-day period Xxxxx and Seller have not resolved in writing the matters

specified in the Notice of Disagreement, Buyer and Seller shall submit to an independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) for arbitration, in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 2.3, only matters that remain in dispute. The Accounting Firm shall be Xxxxx and Young or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed upon by Xxxxx and Seller in writing, and Buyer and Seller shall enter into a customary engagement letter with, and to the extent necessary each party to this Agreement and its Affiliates will waive any conflicts with, the Accounting Firm at the time such dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm and shall cooperate with the Accounting Firm in connection with its determination pursuant to this Section 2.3(b). Buyer and Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to the Accounting Firm within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such submission. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to fixing mathematical errors and determining whether the items in dispute were determined in accordance with the Balance Sheet Rules and this Agreement, and the Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination, including any determination as to (I) whether the Base Closing Consideration, Deferred Consideration, Working Capital Target Amount or Estimated Closing Consideration are correct, (II) the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement or (III) compliance by any party hereto with any of its covenants in this Agreement (except as contemplated by the definition of “Closing Cash”). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.3 is not intended to adjust the Base Closing Consideration, Deferred Consideration or the Final Closing Consideration for any errors or omissions, under GAAP or otherwise, that may be found with respect to the Financial Statements, except to the extent such error or omission is inconsistent with this Agreement or the Balance Sheet Rules. The Accounting Firm’s decision shall be based solely on written submissions by Xxxxx and Seller and their respective representatives (a copy of which shall be delivered to Buyer or Seller, as applicable) and not by independent review and shall be final and binding on all of the parties hereto (absent manifest error). The Accounting Firm may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party as set forth in the Statement or the Notice of Disagreement, as applicable. Judgment may be entered upon the determination of the Accounting Firm in any court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced.

(i) The up-front engagement fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm incurred pursuant to this Section 2.3 in connection with any disputed Closing Consideration or Closing Consideration Elements shall initially be borne 50% by Seller, on the one hand, and 50% by Buyer, on the other hand; provided, that, all such fees, costs and expenses shall ultimately be borne in proportion to the final allocation made by such Accounting Firm of the disputed items weighted in relation to the claims made by Seller and Xxxxx, such that the prevailing party pays the lesser proportion of such fees, costs and expenses. For example, if Seller claims that the appropriate adjustments are $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Buyer and if the Accounting Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding to Seller $300 of the $1,000 contested, then the fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be allocated 30% (i.e., 300 ÷ 1,000) to Buyer and 70% (i.e., 700 ÷ 1,000) to Seller.

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the parties in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Accounting Firm has been engaged shall be borne by the party incurring such fee, cost or expense.

(a) Buyer agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability for acts or omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing Date now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company Group (the “Indemnified Parties”), as provided in the respective Governing Documents of the Company Group as of the date hereof, shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Closing Date. The indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation provisions of the Company Group’s Governing Documents shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, as of the date hereof and prior to the Closing, were directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company Group, unless such modification is required by applicable Law.

(b) On the Closing Date, the Company shall obtain and the Company and Buyer shall each bear one-half of the fees and expenses (including premiums, underwriting or diligence fees or Taxes) in respect of a non-cancelable run-off insurance policy, for a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date to provide insurance coverage of not less than the existing coverage, for events, acts or omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing Date for all persons who were Indemnified Parties on or prior to the Closing Date, which policy shall contain terms and conditions no less favorable to the insured persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Company Group (the “D&O Tail”).

(c) The covenants contained in this Section 7.6 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and legal representatives and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise.

7.7 Exclusivity. Until the earlier of the Closing and such time as this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 10, except for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Seller and the Company will not, and the Company will cause the Company Group, and direct their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or engage in discussions with, or enter into any agreement with, any Person concerning any Acquisition Proposal or (ii) furnish to any Person any confidential information relating to any member of the Company Group or its business or take any other action regarding any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer in each case that would reasonably be expected to facilitate or encourage, an Acquisition Proposal. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Company and Seller shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing direct or indirect discussions with any Person (other than Buyer) that are in respect of an Acquisition Proposal and of which the Company or Seller is aware.The Company shall promptly notify Buyer in writing that it has received an Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any other inquiry in connection with or that would reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, or for access to the properties, books, or records of the Company Group or Seller by any person or entity that informs the Company Group or Seller that it may consider making an Acquisition Proposal together with a copy of any written Acquisition Proposal or such request or inquiry made by a third party and indicate the identity of the Person making the Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and if any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry is not in writing, detail the consideration to be paid and provide a written summary of all material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry in reasonable detail. If requested by Xxxxx, the Company shall inform Xxxxx of the then current status and details of any material modifications to any such proposal, offer or request. If the Company Group or Seller receives notice of any material modifications to such Acquisition Proposal, such modified Acquisition Proposal shall be a new Acquisition Proposal and the provisions of the preceding sentence shall apply mutatis mutandis. For the avoidance of doubt, until the earlier of the Closing and such time as this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Article 10, Seller may not directly or indirectly transfer any Shares or commit to or obligate itself to transfer any Shares.

7.8 Attorney-Client Privilege and Waiver of Conflicts. Buyer hereby waives and agrees to not assert, and agrees to cause each member of the Company Group to waive and not assert, any actual or potential conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing Date, of Seller in any dispute with Buyer or any member of the Company Group or any other matter involving the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, a “Post-Closing Representation”), by Ropes & Gray LLP, or any other internal or external legal counsel currently representing the Company Group (each, a “Prior Company Counsel”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Pre-Closing Representation”). Xxxxx further waives and agrees to not assert, and agrees to cause each member of the Company Group to waive and not assert, in connection with any Post-Closing Representation, any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication between any Prior Company Counsel and Seller, such member of the Company Group and/or any officer, employee or manager of the Company Group that relates to the Pre-Closing Representation (it being the intention of the parties hereto that all rights to such attorney-client privilege, including the right to control such attorney-client privilege, shall be held by Seller). Recognizing that Prior Company Counsel has acted as legal counsel to the Company Group, certain of the direct and indirect holders of Shares and certain of their respective Affiliates prior to date hereof, and that Prior Company Counsel intends to act as legal counsel to Seller and certain of the direct and indirect holders of Shares and their respective Affiliates (which will no longer include the members of the Company Group) after the Closing, each of Buyer and the Company hereby waives, on its own behalf and agrees to cause its Affiliates and Subsidiaries to waive, any conflicts that may arise in connection with Prior Company Counsel representing Seller or any direct or indirect holders of the Shares or their Affiliates after the Closing as such representation may relate to Buyer, the Company Group or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, all communications between direct and indirect holders of Shares, the Company Group and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Prior Company Counsel, on the other hand, related to the sale of the Shares in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to the direct and indirect holders of Shares and their respective Affiliates (and not the Company Group) (the “Seller Pre-Closing Communications”); provided, that, nothing shall prevent Buyer or any member of the Company Group from asserting the attorney-client privilege with respect to Seller Pre-Closing Communications with respect to any other third Person. Accordingly, the Company Group shall not intentionally access any such Seller Pre-Closing Communications and shall not have access to the files of Prior Company Counsel relating to such engagement from and after the Closing, and all records and other materials of the Company Group in any medium (including electronic copies) containing or reflecting any of the Seller Pre-Closing Communications or the work product of legal counsel with respect thereto, including any related summaries, drafts or analyses, and all rights with respect to any of the foregoing, are hereby assigned and transferred to Seller effective as of the Closing. Prior to Closing the applicable members of the Company Group shall be permitted to distribute such material and information to Seller with no copies thereof retained by the Company Group. From and after the Closing, (a) Buyer and the Company shall maintain the confidentiality of all such materials and information, and (b) none of Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates and representatives shall intentionally access or in any way, directly or indirectly, use or rely upon any such materials or information. To the extent that any such materials or information are not delivered to Seller they will be held for the benefit of Seller, and Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries will deliver all such material and information to Seller promptly upon discovery thereof, without retaining copies thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (x) except as set forth above, the direct and indirect holders of Shares and their respective Affiliates (and not the Company Group) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and no member of the

Company Group shall be a holder thereof, (y) to the extent that files of Prior Company Counsel in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the direct and indirect holders of Shares and their respective Affiliates (and not the Company Group) shall hold such property rights and (z) Prior Company Counsel shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any member of the Company Group by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Prior Company Counsel and any member of the Company Group or otherwise. Each of Buyer and the Company hereby acknowledges and confirms that it has had the opportunity to review and obtain adequate information regarding the significance and risks of the waivers and other terms and conditions of this Section 7.8, including the opportunity to discuss with counsel such matters and reasonable alternatives to such terms. This Section 7.8 is for the benefit of Seller and each Prior Company Counsel, and Seller and each Prior Company Counsel are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 7.8. This Section 7.8 shall be irrevocable, and no term of this Section 7.8 may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of Seller and the Prior Company Counsel affected thereby. The covenants and obligations set forth in this Section 7.8 shall survive for ten (10) years following the Closing Date.

7.9 Employee Matters.

(a) During the Continuation Period (as defined below), Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company and each Subsidiary to, provide to each employee of the Company Group who continues employment with the Company, a Subsidiary, Buyer or one of Buyer’s Affiliates from and after the Closing Date (each, a “Continuing Employee”), (i) a base salary or base wages at an annual rate that is no less than the annual rate of the base salary or base wages that was provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) the same short-term annual (or more frequent) bonus or commission opportunity (excluding any transaction or retention bonus opportunities) provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to Closing, and (iii) employee benefits (excluding equity or equity-based compensation and any defined benefit retirement or pension plan benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to the Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that except as otherwise set forth in any agreement (other than this Agreement) with any Continuing Employee or required by applicable Law, nothing herein shall preclude Buyer or its Affiliates, the Company or any Subsidiary from terminating the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time on or after the Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, “Continuation Period” shall mean (i) if the Closing occurs on or before January 15, 2023, the period between such Closing Date and December 31, 2023 or (ii) if the Closing occurs after January 15, 2023, the period between such Closing Date and the first anniversary thereof.

(b) To the extent that any Continuing Employee is terminated during the Continuation Period, such Continuing Employee shall receive severance benefits which are no less than the amounts provided for under any severance arrangement, agreement, plan or policy in effect immediately prior to Closing, as listed on Section 4.17(a)(i) or 4.17(a)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, at Buyer’s sole expense.

(c) Buyer shall, and following Closing shall cause the Company Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to take into account service rendered by the Continuing Employees with the Company and each Subsidiary, and their respective predecessors, prior to the Closing Date, for purposes of participation eligibility, coverage, vesting and level of benefits (but not for purposes of benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan), as applicable, under all defined contribution retirement plans and employee welfare benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements of Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Company and each Subsidiary) (collectively, the “Buyer Plans”) from and after the Closing Date, to the same extent as such service was taken into account under corresponding Company Benefit Plan for such purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein shall result in the duplication of any benefits. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer shall, and following Closing shall cause the Company Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that each Continuing Employee (and their covered dependents and beneficiaries) will not be subject to any pre-existing condition or limitation under any health or welfare plan of Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Company and each Subsidiary) for any condition for which such Continuing Employee would have been entitled to coverage under the corresponding Company Benefit Plan in which such employee participated immediately prior to the Closing Date. In addition, Xxxxx shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Continuing Employee (and his or her covered dependents and beneficiaries) to be given credit under such plans for co-payments made, deductibles satisfied, and contributions toward maximum out-of-pocket requirements prior to the Closing Date as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with the applicable Buyer Plan.

(d) The Company Group shall terminate any and all Company Benefit Plans intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Company 401(k) Plan”), effective not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date, and provide Buyer with evidence that such Company 401(k) Plan has been terminated pursuant to resolutions of the Company’s board of directors. The Company Group shall consider in good faith any suggested revisions from Buyer to the form and substance of the termination of such Company 401(k) Plans and to the extent the Company Group agrees in its discretion to any such revisions suggested by Buyer, the Company Group shall provide Buyer with the revised form and substance of the termination of such Company 401(k) Plans reflecting such revisions. Following termination of the Company 401(k) Plan, to the extent permitted by the Company 401(k) Plan, Buyer shall take, and shall cause the Company to take, any and all actions as may be required, including amendments to the Company 401(k) Plan and/or the tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan designated by Buyer (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”) to permit each Continuing Employee who is eligible to participate in the Company 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Closing (i) to participate in the Buyer 401(k) Plan effective as soon as possible after the Closing, but in no case later than the first day of the month following the Closing Date, and (ii) to make rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code, including of loans) in the form of cash, notes (in the case of loans) or a combination thereof, in an amount equal to the account balance distributed or distributable to such Continuing Employee from the Company 401(k) Plan to the Buyer 401(k) Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 7.9(d) shall limit the rights of such Continuing Employees under the Company 401(k) Plan, such as the right to receive a distribution of benefits thereunder.

(e) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Continuing Employees who participate in a Company Benefit Plan listed on Section 7.9(e) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (each a “Bonus Plan”), bonuses (“Bonuses”) in an aggregate amount equal to the amount accrued as Current Liabilities with respect to that portion of the Company’s fiscal year ending on January 31, 2023, but only to the extent accrued through December 31, 2022. Such pro-rata Bonuses shall be paid to each Continuing Employee on or before the Closing Date in an amount to be determined by the Company pursuant to the applicable Bonus Plan. Buyer, or an Affiliate of Buyer, as applicable, shall provide each Continuing Employee who participates in any of the Bonus Plans with a payment under such Bonus Plans in respect of the full annual performance period during which the Closing occurs, less any amounts paid prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 7.9(e).

(f) Qualified M&A Beneficiaries (as such term is defined under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”)), including their eligible dependents, shall, as of the Closing Date, be entitled to health care continuation coverage (“COBRA Coverage”) under the Company’s group health plans, so long as such plans remain in effect following the Closing. Upon the transition of Continuing Employees to Buyer’s group health plans following the Closing, Buyer shall be obligated to continue to provide COBRA Coverage to such Qualified M&A Beneficiaries (and their eligible dependents) under such Buyer group health plans. Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Company) shall bear the cost of such COBRA Coverage to the extent provided in any applicable severance plan or agreement; otherwise, the Qualified M&A Beneficiaries shall pay the COBRA cost on the same basis as other eligible former employees, as required by Law. Buyer shall provide health care continuation coverage required by COBRA to covered employees and their eligible dependents or beneficiaries under Xxxxx’s group health plans with respect to qualifying events occurring on and after the Closing Date.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing contained in this Section 7.9 shall (i) confer any rights, remedies or claims upon any third party, including any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or any Continuing Employee (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof), or (ii) be considered to be an amendment of, or require an amendment to, any Company Benefit Plan or any Buyer Plan.

7.10 Code Section 280G Approval. The Company shall, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) secure from each “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Code Section 280G) who has a right to any payments or benefits or potential right to any payments or benefits under any Company Benefit Plan or otherwise that are “contingent” (within the meaning of Code Section 280G) on the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that would be deemed to constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Code Section 280G) a waiver, subject to the approval described in clause (b), of such Person’s rights to all of such parachute payments applicable to such disqualified individual to the extent they exceed $1.00 less than three times such disqualified individual’s “base amount” within the meaning of Code Section 280G (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) and (b) solicit the approval of the required Company’s equityholders, to the extent and in a manner intended to comply with Code Section 280G(b)(5)(B) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, of any Waived 280G Benefits. Any of the Waived 280G Benefits which fail to be approved by the required equityholders as contemplated above shall not be made or provided to, or retained by, the applicable disqualified individuals. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer evidence that a vote of the required Company’s equityholders was solicited in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.10 and that either (i) the requisite

number of votes of the required Company’s equityholders was obtained with respect to the Waived 280G Benefits (the “280G Approval”), or (ii) that the 280G Approval was not obtained, and, as a consequence, the Waived 280G Benefits have not been and shall not be made or provided to, or retained by, the applicable disqualified individuals. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to distributing any voting and waiving materials to the required Company’s equityholders and any such “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Code Section 280G), the Company shall provide copies of such materials, along with the Code Section 280G calculations, to Buyer for its review, and shall consider all reasonable comments of Buyer on the applicable waiver and the disclosure and approval materials (and Buyer agrees to provide its comments to the Company promptly following receipt of the materials). Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection with the determination of any parachute payments subject to this Section 7.10, including by providing the Company with information in Buyer’s possession relevant to such payments (including copies of any go-forward employment, incentive, equity, or other agreements that will be determined or provided to disqualified individuals prior to Closing) no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to Closing. The Company shall not be deemed to be in breach of this Section 7.10 to the extent that the 280G Approval does not meet the requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder due to Buyer’s breach of the immediately preceding sentence.

7.11 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Treatment. For all purposes of this Agreement, all Transaction Tax Deductions shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law based upon a “more likely than not” or higher level of comfort, be deducted in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and any success-based fees shall be treated as deductible in accordance with Rev. Proc. 2011-29. Buyer will cause the Tax year of the Company and its domestic Subsidiaries to end on the Closing Date to the maximum extent permitted under applicable Law.

(b) Straddle Periods. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes of the Company Group not based upon or measured by income, activities, events, or upon the level of any item, gain, receipts, proceeds, profits, or similar items that is attributable to the applicable Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax item for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period. The amount of any other Taxes for a Straddle Period that relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose and otherwise for the purposes of determining liabilities for Taxes hereunder, the taxable period of any partnership, including any “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code, in which the Company or any Subsidiary holds an interest will be deemed to end as of the close of business on the Closing Date); provided, however, that, with respect to assets placed in service after the Closing Date, any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (such as deductions for depreciation or real estate Taxes) shall be apportioned on a daily basis.

7.12 COVID-19. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing herein shall prevent Seller (or any Affiliate thereof), the Company or member of the Company Group from taking or failing to take any reasonable action, including the establishment of any policy, procedure or protocol, in response to COVID-19 or any COVID-19 Measures, and no such reasonable action or omission shall be deemed to violate or breach this Agreement in any way, be deemed to constitute an action taken outside of the ordinary course of business or serve as a basis for Buyer to terminate this Agreement or assert that any of the conditions to the Closing contained herein have not been satisfied.

7.13 Use of Cash. After the Reference Time and prior to the Closing, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, use any cash of the Company Group to pay off or reduce any Indebtedness or Seller Expenses unless such amount of cash reduces the Closing Cash.

7.14 Resignations. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer and its Representatives in the resignation and removal of the members of the board of directors (or similar governing body) and officers (or equivalent), in each case, solely in their capacities as such, of each member of the Company Group as requested by Xxxxx in writing at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing.

7.15 Seller Expenses Invoices. On or prior to the Closing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer an invoice issued by each intended beneficiary of Seller Expenses (to the extent practicable) that sets forth (A) the amount required to pay in full all Seller Expenses owed to such Person on the Closing Date, and (B) the wire transfer instructions for the payment of such Seller Expenses to such Person.

7.16 Termination of Related Party Contracts. On or prior to the Closing, the Company Group shall use reasonable efforts to terminate all Company Related Party Transactions set forth on Section 7.16 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, providing that no further payments are due, or may become due, under or in respect of any such terminated Contract unless otherwise included in Seller Expenses and no member of the Company Group shall have any further liability or obligation thereunder other than customary indemnity provisions that survive in accordance with their terms (the “Related Party Termination Agreements”). Upon request by Buyer, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate on or prior to the Closing any other Company Related Party Transactions required to be disclosed on Section 4.20 of the Company Disclosure Schedule that was not so disclosed, providing that no further payments are due, or may become due, under or in respect of any such terminated Contract unless otherwise included in Seller Expenses and no member of the Company Group shall have any further liability or obligation thereunder other than customary indemnity provisions that survive in accordance with their terms.

7.17 R&W Insurance Policy. Buyer shall ensure the R&W Insurance Policy provides that the insurer(s) (and any managing general underwriter thereof) shall not have, and to the fullest extent waive(s), any and all subrogation rights or rights of contribution it might have against Seller or the Seller Related Parties arising out of, as a result of, or related to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, including any alleged breach of any representation or warranty except in the case of losses caused by the Actual Fraud

of the party making the applicable representation and warranty under Articles 4 or 5. The R&W Insurance Policy shall provide that Seller and the Seller Related Parties are third-party beneficiaries of the provisions provided for in this Section 7.17. Additionally, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any rights of any issuer of the R&W Insurance Policy, including any rights of subrogation, do not affect, expand or increase any liability or obligation of Seller in connection with this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated under this Agreement (including the Closing and paying the Deferred Consideration) shall not be conditioned on Buyer obtaining the R&W Insurance Policy and Buyer shall not be entitled to claim that Seller or the Company breached any covenant, representation or warranty in this Agreement arising in connection with Buyer’s failure to obtain the R&W Insurance Policy as contemplated by this Section 7.17. On the Closing, (x) the Company shall pay the unpaid RWI Costs to the applicable insurer(s) and general underwriter(s) pursuant to invoices relating to the costs and expenses relating to the R&W Insurance Policy provided by Buyer at least three (3) Business Day prior to the Closing and promptly provide evidence of such payment to Buyer and (y) Buyer shall be responsible for paying the balance of any remaining costs and expenses relating to the R&W Insurance Policy in excess of the RWI Costs.

7.18 Alternative Process Expenses. At or prior to the Closing, the applicable members of the Company Group shall pay to the applicable Persons all Alternative Process Expenses, including the payments and amounts set forth on Section 7.18 of the Company Disclosure Schedules.

7.19 Third-Party Consents. Promptly upon request by Buyer, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts (which shall not require any member of the Company Group to make any payment or concession to any Person in connection with obtaining such Person’s consent) to obtain or cause to be obtained, the third party consents set forth on Section 7.19 of the Company Disclosure Schedules.

(a) by the mutual consent of Buyer and the Company;

(b) at the election of Buyer or the Company if the Closing Date shall not have occurred on or prior to March 1, 2023 (as such date may be extended pursuant to Section 11.16(c), the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the terminating party (including Seller, in the event the Company is the terminating party) is not in material breach of this Agreement at the time of such termination;

(c) by Buyer, if the Company or Seller shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of the Company or Seller shall have become untrue, which breach or failure to perform or to be true, either individually or in the aggregate, if occurring or continuing at the Closing, (A) would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 or 8.2 and (B) cannot be or has not been cured or waived by Buyer by the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) 20 Business Days after the giving of written notice to Seller of such breach or failure; provided, that, Buyer shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (c) if Buyer is then in material breach of this Agreement;

(d) by Seller or the Company, if Buyer shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Buyer shall have become untrue, which breach or failure to perform or to be true, either individually or in the aggregate, if occurring or continuing at the Closing, (A) would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Sections 9.1 or 9.2 and (B) cannot be or has not been cured or waived by Seller or the Company, as applicable, by the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) 20 Business Days after the giving of written notice to Buyer of such breach or failure; provided, that, neither Seller nor the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (d) if any of the Company or Seller is then in material breach of this Agreement; or

The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1 (other than Section 10.1(a)) shall give written notice of such termination to the other party hereto.

10.2 Survival After Termination. If this Agreement is validly terminated by the parties in accordance with Section 10.1, this Agreement shall become void and of no further force and effect, and none of the parties hereto shall have any liability in respect of a termination of this Agreement, except that the provisions of Section 7.3(b), this Section 10.2, Article 11 and the Confidentiality Agreement shall each survive the termination of this Agreement, and no such termination shall relieve any party from any liability resulting from a Willful Breach or Actual Fraud, in which case the non-breaching party shall be entitled to all rights and remedies available at Law or in equity.

11.12 Buyer Release. From and after the Closing, each of Buyer and the Company agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (and, from and after the Closing, shall cause each member of the Company Group to agree) (collectively, the “Buyer Releasing Parties”), that none of (y) Seller or (z) the current or former, direct or indirect equity holders of the Company Group as of the date hereof or the Closing Date (the “Seller Released Parties”) have any liability to any of Buyer or the Company Group (and Buyer hereby unconditionally, absolutely, generally, irrevocably and completely releases, remises, relinquishes, waives and forever discharges, and from and after the Closing agrees to cause the Company Group to unconditionally, absolutely, generally, irrevocably and completely release, remise, relinquish, waive and forever discharge), the Seller Released Parties from any obligations or liability for, relating to or arising under (a) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, the Schedules and Exhibits hereto or in any certificate contemplated hereby and delivered in connection herewith, (b) any effect, circumstance, change, occurrence, fact or development relating to or underlying such breach referred to in clause (a) and (c) any information (whether written or oral), documents or materials furnished by or on behalf of Seller or the Company Group, including the Confidential Information.

Buyer on behalf of itself and the Buyer Releasing Parties (in its capacity as such) hereby explicitly waive all rights with respect to the foregoing releases under the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which section provides in pertinent part: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT A CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.” Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Releasing Parties (in its capacity as such) agree that no provision of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code shall affect the validity or scope of any other aspect of the foregoing releases. Buyer on behalf of itself and the Buyer Releasing Parties (in its capacity as such) hereby expressly waive any and all rights with respect to the foregoing releases which they may have under any other provision of state or federal Law providing the same or similar effect.

11.13 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of Laws. The parties hereto hereby declare that it is their intention that this Agreement shall be regarded as made under the Laws of the State of Delaware and that the Laws of said State shall be applied in interpreting its provisions in all cases where legal interpretation shall be required. Each of the parties hereto: (a) agrees that this Agreement involves at least $100,000; (b) agrees that this Agreement has been entered into by the parties hereto in express reliance upon 6 Del. C. § 2708; (c) irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) with respect to all actions and proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or other theory); (d) agrees that all claims with respect to any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such courts and agrees not to commence any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether based on contract, tort or other theory) except in such courts; (e) irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and irrevocably and unconditionally waives the defense of an inconvenient forum; and (f) agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Xxx. The parties hereto agree that any violation of this Section 11.13 shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall constitute irreparable harm.

11.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (IN EACH CASE WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.14.

11.15 Conveyance Taxes. Buyer and Seller shall each pay 50% of all sales, use, value added, transfer, stamp, registration, documentary, excise, real property transfer or gains, or similar Taxes incurred as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall jointly file all required change of ownership and similar statements.

11.16 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its terms or otherwise breach such provisions and money damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy for any such failure to perform or any breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (including paying the Deferred Consideration in accordance with, and otherwise complying with, Section 2.2(c), and to cause the Closing to occur), without proof of actual damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

(b) Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (i) it has an adequate remedy at Law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(c) To the extent that Seller or the Company brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement when expressly available to such party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

11.17 Severability. If any term, provision, agreement, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, agreements, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto; provided, that, the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be affected in a manner materially adverse to the parties hereto if Section 11.18 is invalid, void or incapable of being enforced. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, void, or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement (and if no such agreement shall be made, it shall be construed and enforced) so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

11.18 Limitation on Recourse. Except as set forth in or with respect to a breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or the Support Agreements, no Action shall be brought or maintained by any party hereto or any of their respective Affiliates or their respective successors or permitted assigns against any current or former direct or indirect equity holder, officer, director, employee or Affiliate of Buyer, the Company or Seller, as applicable (who shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 11.18), which is not otherwise expressly identified as a party hereto, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement or any exhibit or schedule hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder, other than in the case of Actual Fraud committed by such Person against whom such Action is being brought or maintained.

11.19 Debt Financing Sources. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company hereby, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, each Seller Related Party and each of the other parties hereto, subject to the final sentence of this Section 11.19: (a) agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Buyer’s debt financing sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Debt Financing Sources”), including but not limited to any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Buyer’s debt financing arrangements entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Debt Financing”) or the performance thereof or the transactions contemplated thereby, in any forum other than exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof), and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agrees that any such action shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in any applicable definitive document relating to the Debt Financing, including any debt commitment letter, (c) agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to the Company at its address provided in Section 11.6 shall be effective service of process against the Company and its Subsidiaries for any such action brought in any such court, (d) waives and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such action in any such court, (e) waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law all rights of trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based upon contract, tort or otherwise) brought against the Debt Financing Sources arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the debt commitment letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (f) agrees that a final judgment in any such action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law, (g) agrees that none of the sources providing the Debt Financing will have any liability to the Company or its Subsidiaries relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, any applicable definitive document relating to the Debt Financing, including any debt commitment letter, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, (g) agrees that the Debt Financing Sources are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions

in this Agreement reflecting the foregoing agreements in this Section 11.19, Section 11.3 and Section 11.16, an each of such Sections shall expressly inure to the benefit of the Debt Financing Sources and the Debt Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of such Sections. No Debt Financing Source shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive or indirect damages or damages of a tortious nature. Notwithstanding (i) the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11.19 shall in any way limit or modify the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement as with respect to the Debt Financing Sources or any Debt Financing Source’s obligations to Buyer under the any applicable definitive document relating to the Debt Financing, including any debt commitment letter (it being understood that following consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nothing in this Section 11.19 shall limit the rights of any of the parties to any definitive documentation relating to the Debt Financing), (ii) anything to the contrary contained herein, no Seller Related Party (other than Buyer) shall have any rights or claims against any Debt Financing Source in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and no Debt Financing Source shall have any rights or claims against any Seller Related Party (other than Buyer) in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the foregoing will not limit the rights of the parties to the Debt Financing under any commitment letter related thereto, (iii) Sections 11.3, 11.16 and 11.19 (and any other provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, supplement, waiver or other modification of such provision would modify the substance of such Sections) may not be amended, supplement, waived or otherwise modified in any manner that impacts or is otherwise adverse in any respect to the Debt Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.
