(k)          any Liabilities, including any Liabilities in respect of Taxes, to the extent arising out of the Nippon Separation; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, while Taxes arising from the Nippon Separation constitute Excluded Liabilities, Purchaser remains responsible for filing any Straddle Period Tax Returns of Concurrent NC pursuant to
Section 11.2;

(l)           any employee Liabilities (whether or not such Liabilities are accrued or payable at Closing, and whether or not such Liabilities are contingent in nature) relating to present and past employees of the Selling Group to the extent relating to any pension obligations under the Laws of Germany;

2.6           Withholding. Purchaser, the HPS Share Purchaser, and their respective agents, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under applicable Law; provided, however, that Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Seller Parent prior to withholding if Purchaser determines that any withholding is required on payments to Seller Parent hereunder (other than by reason of failure of one or both of the Sellers to deliver any items specified in Section 4.2(a)), and at Seller Parent’s request Purchaser shall allow Seller Parent to timely mitigate any such requirement for deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by Law and reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser (provided that Purchaser, its agents, and its Affiliates shall not be required to incur any unreimbursed cost or expense in connection therewith). To the extent that such amounts are so deducted or withheld and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

Article III

PURCHASE PRICE; WORKING CAPITAL ADJUSTMENT

3.1           Purchase Price for the Purchased Assets. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, in consideration of the sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance to Purchaser of the Purchased Assets, at the Closing, the Purchaser shall (i) pay the Total Purchase Price less the Escrow Amount to the Seller Parent by wire transfer of immediately available funds (the “Closing Payment”); and (ii) assume the Assumed Liabilities.

3.2           Escrow. $2,000,000 of the Total Purchase Price (the “Escrow Amount”) shall be deposited by the Purchaser at the Closing, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement for the purpose of satisfying indemnification claims pursuant to Article X hereof.

3.3           Working Capital Adjustment. The Total Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows:

(a)          Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller Parent shall have prepared and delivered to the Purchaser the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and a statement calculating the Estimated Working Capital. If the Estimated Working Capital is less than the Working Capital Requirement, then the Total Purchase Price payable on the Closing Date will be decreased by the amount of such shortfall (the “Shortfall Reduction”). The Total Purchase Price will be subject to further adjustment upon final, post-Closing determination of the Working Capital, as provided in Section 3.3(b) below. For the avoidance of doubt, the Total Purchase Price will not be adjusted if the Estimated Working Capital is greater than the Working Capital Requirement.

24.

(b)          As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, and in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days thereafter, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Seller Parent (i) the Closing Balance Sheet and (ii) a statement calculating Working Capital, showing proposed adjustments to the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Estimated Working Capital, together with such documentation the Purchaser believes supports such proposed adjustments (together with the Closing Balance Sheet, the “Adjusted Working Capital Statement”). Within 30 days after receipt thereof, the Seller Parent shall notify the Purchaser in writing whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the Adjusted Working Capital Statement. If the Seller Parent accepts the Adjusted Working Capital Statement or fails to notify the Purchaser in writing of any dispute with respect thereto within such 30-day period, then the Closing Balance Sheet set forth therein and the Purchaser’s calculation of Working Capital shall be deemed to be the final determination of both the Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital under this Agreement. If the Seller Parent disputes the Adjusted Working Capital Statement, it shall in such written notice set forth in reasonable detail those items that the Seller Parent believes are not fairly presented and the reasons for its opinion. The parties shall then meet and in good faith use their best efforts to resolve their disagreements over the disputed items. If the parties resolve their disagreements over the disputed items, the Adjusted Working Capital Statement, with those modifications to which the parties shall have agreed, shall be deemed to be the final determination of the Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital under this Agreement. If the parties have not resolved their disagreements over the disputed items on the Adjusted Working Capital Statement within 30 days after the Seller Parent’s notice of dispute, the parties shall forthwith jointly request an independent Accounting Referee to make a binding determination of those disputed items included in the Adjusted Working Capital Statement based solely on presentations by the Purchaser and the Seller Parent and in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (for example, not on the basis of an independent review). The Accounting Referee will have 30 days from the date of referral to render its decision with respect to the disputed items concerning the Adjusted Working Capital Statement, shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and its decision must be within the range of disputed values assigned to each disputed item, which decision shall be final and binding upon the parties. Upon rendering its decision, the calculation of the Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital, as set forth in the Adjusted Working Capital Statement with those modifications thereto as decided by the Accounting Referee, shall be deemed to be the final determination of the Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital under this Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee engaged pursuant to this Section 3.3(b) shall be borne 50% by the Seller Parent and 50% by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the final disputed amount claimed by Purchaser in the submission of the dispute to the Accounting Referee differs from the amount as finally determined by the Accounting Referee by greater than 15%, then the fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee engaged pursuant to this Section 3.3(b) shall be borne 100% by Purchaser. The date on which the Closing Balance Sheet and Working Capital of Seller Parent are finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.3(b) is hereinafter referred to as the “Working Capital Determination Date.”

(c)          If Working Capital as determined pursuant to Section 3.3(b) is less than the lower of (i) the Estimated Working Capital and (ii) the Working Capital Requirement, then the Total Purchase Price will be decreased by the amount of such shortfall (the “Shortfall Consideration”). If Working Capital as determined pursuant to Section 3.3(b) exceeds the greater of (i) the Estimated Working Capital and (ii) the Working Capital Requirement, then no adjustment will be made to the Total Purchase Price. The Total Purchase Price adjustment required hereby is referred to as the “Adjustment.”

25.

(d)          In the event of any Adjustment, then promptly (and in any event no later than the fifth Business Day after the Working Capital Determination Date), the Seller Parent shall pay to the Purchaser the Shortfall Reduction by wire transfer in immediately available funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, provide written notice to the Seller Parent indicating that the Shortfall Reduction will be satisfied out of amounts then-remaining in the Escrow Account, in which case, the Seller Parent will cooperate with the Purchaser to provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to provide for the release of such Shortfall Reduction to the Purchaser.

3.4           Purchase Price for the Concurrent HPS Equity. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in consideration of the sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance to Purchaser of the Concurrent HPS Equity, at the Concurrent HPS Closing, the Purchaser shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Sellers the amount of (a) $2,800,000 less any (b) Agreed Upon Non-Permitted Leakage (as defined below) (the difference of (a) and (b) being referred to herein as the “Concurrent HPS Equity Payment”). The Concurrent HPS Equity Payment shall be paid to the Sellers in the percentages set forth on Schedule 3.4 and shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts designated by the Seller Parent not less than two (2) business days prior to the Concurrent HPS Closing. In the event the Purchaser reasonably believes that there has been any Non-Permitted Leakage during the period from the Closing through and including the Concurrent HPS Closing, the Purchaser will so inform the Seller Parent, and the Purchaser and Seller Parent will negotiate in good faith (and will use their commercially reasonable efforts) to agree upon the amount of such Non-Permitted Leakage, if any, prior to the Concurrent HPS Closing Date. If the parties so agree on the amount of such Non-Permitted Leakage, they will memorialize the agreed amount in writing, which shall be the “Agreed Upon Non-Permitted Leakage.” If the parties are unable to so agree, after using their commercially reasonable efforts, then the Buyer shall retain all of its rights and remedies with respect thereto, including the right to seek and obtain indemnification under Article X.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLERS

The Sellers hereby, jointly and severally, on behalf of themselves and each Transferred Company, represent and warrant to the Purchaser that the statements contained in this Article V are true and correct, except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule attached hereto (the “Disclosure Schedule”) (provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, except as set forth in Section 5.9 (Sufficiency of Purchased Assets), Section 5.20 (Taxes), Section 5.22 (Employee Benefit Plans), Section 5.23 (Transactions with Affiliates; Intercompany Arrangements), Section 5.28 (Nippon Separation) and except for references herein to coverage under the Trademark License Agreement, Transition Services Agreement or Software License Agreement with respect to Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities subject thereto, no representation or warranty shall be made or deemed to have been made with respect to any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability or any business of the Sellers other than the Business). The Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in numbered sections and subsections corresponding to the sections and subsections contained in this Article V and each item disclosed thereon shall make explicit reference to the specific representation or warranty as to which exception is taken or disclosure made. Exceptions to a particular representation or warranty shall not be construed as exceptions to any other representation or warranty, except to the extent the applicability of such exception or qualification to any other applicable representation or warranty is reasonably apparent on the face of the disclosure to a reader unfamiliar with the Business. Reference in the Disclosure Schedule to any purchase order, amendment, memorandum or Contract, document or other item shall be deemed to refer only to such item and not to any related terms and conditions, underlying master agreement, appendix, schedule or exhibit unless the same is also specifically disclosed, by name, and a complete and accurate copy has been provided to Purchaser. For the purposes of this Article V, the term “Purchased Assets” shall be deemed to include the Concurrent HPS Assets and the Concurrent HPS Equity as if the Concurrent HPS Closing were occurring simultaneously with the Closing.

5.1           Existence and Power. Each Selling Company is a corporation, limited liability company or other entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and has all requisite power and all governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to own, operate or lease the properties and assets now owned, operated or leased by it and to carry on the Business as now conducted and proposed to be conducted. Each Selling Company is duly licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing (if such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) as a foreign entity, in each jurisdiction in which the ownership of the Purchased Assets or the operation of the Business as currently conducted makes such licensing, qualification or good standing (as applicable) necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed, qualified or in good standing would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Selling Company has heretofore made available to the Purchaser true and complete copies of the corporate charter and bylaws or equivalent governing documents of such Selling Company, as applicable, as currently in effect.

30.

5.2           Authorization; Execution. Each Seller has all necessary corporate or limited liability company power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which such Seller is a party, to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery by each Seller of this Agreement and the execution and delivery by each Selling Company of any other Transaction Document to which such Selling Group member is a party, the performance by each Selling Company of its obligations hereunder and thereunder and the consummation by each Selling Company of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or limited liability company action on the part of such Selling Company. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed and made available by each Selling Company, and (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Purchaser) this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Seller, enforceable against such Selling Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (a) the Purchased Assets do not constitute “substantially all” of the Seller Parent’s assets as determined under Section 271 of the DGCL and (b) the approval of the stockholders of the Seller Parent is not required under the DGCL or otherwise in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions.

(b)          All of the Purchased Equity is owned beneficially and of record by the Sellers, free and clear of any Lien other than transfer restrictions imposed thereon by Law. Section 5.3(b) of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth (a) authorized capital stock of each Transferred Company, and (b) the issued and outstanding capital stock of each of Transferred Company and the record and beneficial holder thereof. The Purchased Equity has been duly authorized and validly issued and is fully paid and nonassessable, and except for the French Employee Right, is not subject to any preemptive or subscription rights and was not issued in violation of any preemptive or subscription rights. Except for the Purchased Equity, there is no capital stock of any of the Transferred Companies reserved, issued or outstanding, there are no preemptive rights or other outstanding rights, warrants, options, puts, calls, subscriptions or other rights, convertible securities, trusts or Contracts of any character (w) convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for, or giving any Person a right to subscribe or acquire, any capital stock of any of the Transferred Companies or obligating any Transferred Company to issue, transfer, sell, purchase, return or redeem any equity interests or securities convertible into or exchangeable for such securities or equity interests, (x) requiring or giving any Person any rights with respect to the issuance, transfer, sale, repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of any capital stock of any of the Transferred Companies, (y) restricting the transfer of any capital stock of any of the Transferred Companies or (z) with respect to the voting of the Purchased Equity of any Transferred Company. No Transferred Company owns, directly or indirectly, and none of the Purchased Assets except for the Purchased Equity include, any capital stock in any Person. Upon the consummation of Closing (including the payment of the purchase price therefor), the Purchaser shall have acquired the Purchased Equity free and clear of all Liens.

31.

32.

On or prior to the date hereof, the Sellers have, or have caused Concurrent HPS to, deliver notice of the sale of the Concurrent HPS Equity (solely as it relates to Concurrent HPS) to the French Defence Ministry and the French Economy Ministry. There is no Contract to which any of the Sellers is a party, to which the Purchased Assets are bound or otherwise relating to the Business with a customer that is a prime contractor with the French Defence Ministry.

5.5           Non-Contravention . Assuming the truth and completeness of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained in Section 6.4 of this Agreement, the execution, delivery and performance by the Selling Group of this Agreement and each Transaction Document to which any Selling Company is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not (i)  contravene or conflict with the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of any Selling Company, (ii)  contravene or conflict with any provision of any Law, Governmental Order, permit or decree binding upon or applicable to the Selling Group or the Business; (iii) except as set forth on this Section 5.5 of the Disclosure Schedule, constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation of any Selling Company, or to a loss of any benefit relating to the Business to which any Selling Company is entitled under any provision of any Contract, indenture or other document binding upon any Selling Company (iv) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Purchased Asset; or (v) otherwise require the consent approval, waiver or other action by any Person (other than any Governmental Authority referred to in Section 5.4(a)) under any Contract, indenture or other document to which any of the Selling Group is a party or is bound.

5.6           Financial Statements.

(a)          Set forth in Section 5.6(a) of the Disclosure Schedule are complete and accurate copies of (i) the unaudited balance sheet of the Business as of March 31, 2017 (the “Most Recent Balance Sheet”), together with the related statements of operations for the nine-month period ended on the date of the Most Recent Balance Sheet (the “Most Recent Balance Sheet Date”); and (ii) the unaudited financial statements of the Business as, at and for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and each of the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015, together with all related schedules and notes (such statements, collectively, the “Financial Reports”). Each of the balance sheets included in the Financial Reports fairly presents, in all material respects, the financial position of the Business as of the date thereof and each of the statements of income (or statements of results of operations) included in the Financial Reports fairly presents, in all material respects, the results of operations of the Business for the periods then ended, in each case in accordance with the Accounting Principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered; provided, however, that such financial statements lack statements of cash flows, a statement of retained earnings and footnote disclosures that may be required by GAAP. Moreover, the Financial Reports were prepared from, and are in all material respects in accordance with, the books and records of the Business and using the same methodologies and principles as used to prepare the financial statements filed by Seller Parent with the SEC, except as expressly stated therein. The Selling Group does not prepare separate financial statements for the Business in the ordinary course of business; however, the Financial Reports have been prepared based on management’s good faith belief of the results, and/or financial position, of the Business.

33.

(b)          Set forth in Section 5.6(b) of the Disclosure Schedule is a copy of the Estimated Concurrent HPS Balance Sheet as of immediately prior to the Closing. To the knowledge of Sellers, the Estimated Concurrent HPS Balance Sheet fairly presents, in all material respects, the financial position of Concurrent HPS as of immediately prior to the Closing. Moreover, the Estimated Concurrent HPS Balance Sheet was prepared from, and is in all material respects in accordance with, the books and records of the Business. Except (i) to the extent reflected or reserved against in the Estimated Concurrent HPS Balance Sheet, or (ii) for Liabilities that are incurred after the date of the Estimated Concurrent HPS Balance Sheet in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, there are (as of the Concurrent HPS Closing) no Liabilities or other obligations of any nature whatsoever of Concurrent HPS.

(c)          With respect to the Business, the Sellers have in place systems and processes designed to (i) provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of the Financial Reports and (ii) in a timely manner accumulate and communicate to Seller Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer the type of information that would be required to be disclosed in the Financial Reports (such systems and processes are herein referred to as the “Accounting Controls”). Since July 1, 2016, neither the Sellers nor, to the Sellers’ knowledge, any current employee, auditor, accountant or representative of the Sellers has received or otherwise had or obtained knowledge of any complaint, allegation, assertion or claim, whether written or oral, regarding the Controls or the Financial Reports. To the Sellers’ knowledge, there have been no instances of fraud, whether or not material, that occurred during any period covered by the Financial Reports.

The Selling Companies in the conduct of the Business have not ever infringed (directly, contributorily, by inducement or otherwise), misappropriated or otherwise violated or made unlawful use of any of the Intellectual Property of any third party or engaged in unfair competition; provided, however, that the foregoing representation is made to the Seller’s knowledge with respect to Patents only. The Products, the Legacy Products and the operation of the Business as currently conducted do not infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property of any third party.

Each of the Sellers and Transferred Companies has taken commercially reasonable steps to protect its rights in confidential information and trade secrets that constitute Intellectual Property Assets. Without limiting the foregoing, all current and former employees and consultants of the Sellers and Transferred Companies who have, or have had, access to any confidential information or trade secrets related to the Business, have executed nondisclosure agreements that protect the Sellers’ and the Transferred Companies’ respective rights in such confidential information and trade secrets, and to the knowledge of the Sellers, no such employees or consultants have breached any such agreement. In each case in which a Seller or Transferred Company has made available or otherwise provided any technical data, Software or Intellectual Property, in each instance, that constitutes an Intellectual Property Asset, in connection with any Government Contract or Government Proposal, such Seller or Transferred Company has marked such technical data, Software or Intellectual Property that is material to the Business with markings and legends (including any “limited rights” legend, “restricted rights” legend and any “government purpose license rights” legend) necessary (under FAR or other applicable Laws), and has taken other commercially reasonable measures necessary to protect the value of the Business and Intellectual Property Assets to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

43.

Except as set forth in Section 5.14(k) of the Disclosure Schedule, no source code for any Software that constitutes an Intellectual Property Asset has been delivered, licensed, or made available to any escrow agent or other Person who is not, as of the date of this Agreement, an employee of Sellers. Except as set forth in Section 5.14(k) of the Disclosure Schedule, none of the Sellers or Transferred Companies has any duty or obligation (whether present, contingent, or otherwise) to deliver, license or make available the source code for any Software that constitutes an Intellectual Property Asset to any escrow agent or other Person. No event has occurred, and no circumstance or condition exists, that (with or without notice or lapse of time) will, or could reasonably be expected to, result in the delivery, license or disclosure of the source code for any such Software to any other Person.

None of the Sellers or Transferred Companies use or distribute any Software that is subject to, and no portion of any Seller Software is subject to, any “open source” license in a manner or fashion that (other than with respect to the “open source” license in its unmodified form) (i) requires the licensing, disclosure or distribution (including under an ASP or “software-as-a-service” model) of any source code for Seller Software; (ii) prohibits or limits the receipt of consideration in connection with licensing, sublicensing or distributing any portion of the Seller Software; (iii) allows any Person to decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse-engineer any portion of such Software; or (iv) requires the licensing of any portion of any such Software to any other Person for the purpose of making derivative works. With respect to any open source software included in the Products or Seller Software, the Seller and Transferred Companies are in compliance with all terms and conditions of all open source licenses with respect thereto, including any required attribution.

44.

(m)          Software Bugs. None of the Software (including firmware and other Software embedded in hardware devices) owned, developed (or currently being developed), used, marketed, distributed, licensed or sold by the Seller in connection with the Products, contains any bug, defect or error that materially and adversely affects the use, functionality or performance of the Products. No Seller Software contains any “back door”, “drop dead device”, “time bomb”, “Trojan horse”, “virus”, or “worm” (as such terms are commonly understood in the software industry) or any other code designed or intended to have, or capable of performing, any of the following functions: (i) disrupting, disabling, harming or otherwise impeding in any manner, the operation of, or providing unauthorized access to, a computer system or network or other device on which such code is stored or installed; or (ii) damaging or destroying any data or file without the user’s consent, except, in each case, to the extent that such code functions (1) are of the type covered under the maintenance portion of the Business’s Contract with the applicable user and (2) do not rise to the level of a breach of the Business’s Contract with the applicable user that would trigger the Business’s warranty obligations thereunder.

(n)          Privacy. The use or handling of Business Data used or held for use in connection with the Business by the Sellers and Transferred Companies at all times did not and does not materially violate any applicable Law in any jurisdiction. None of the Sellers or any Transferred Company has received any written notice of, or, to the knowledge of the Sellers, other communication that any of the Sellers are or may be in violation of any data privacy or data security related Law in connection with their respective conduct of the Business. None of the Sellers or any Transferred Company has distributed, used, processed or displayed Business Data that constitutes a Purchased Asset in breach of any Contract identifying any such Seller of Transferred Company as a party. At all times: (i) the Sellers and Transferred Companies in the conduct of the Business have each posted privacy policies governing the use and collection of Personally Identifiable Information by the Sellers and Transferred Companies in the conduct of the Business, to the extent applicable and (ii) all of the privacy policies of each of the Sellers and Transferred Companies completely and accurately describe the collection, display and distribution of any Personally Identifiable Information by the Sellers and Transferred Companies in the conduct of the Business. To the extent applicable, the Sellers and the Transferred Companies each hold all permits and licenses, have obtained all consents and provided all notices required under applicable Laws related to their respective uses of Business Data that constitutes a Purchased Asset.

7.2         Notices of Certain Pre-Closing Events. Sellers shall give prompt notice to the Purchaser of: (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, fact or circumstance that, to the knowledge of Sellers, would cause Sellers to be unable to deliver the certificate as and when required by Section 9.2(a); provided, however, that any disclosure by the Sellers pursuant to this Section 7.2 shall not: (w) affect or be deemed to modify in any respect any of the representations or warranties of the Sellers set forth in this Agreement (or in any certificate, instrument or other document delivered by the Sellers (or any officer thereof) to the Purchaser in connection with the Transactions), or the conditions to the obligations of the Sellers to consummate the Transactions in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof; (x) be deemed to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedule, or prevent or cure any misrepresentations, breach of warranty or breach of covenant by the parties hereto; (y) otherwise limit or affect any remedies available to the Purchaser as a result of or arising out of such disclosure, including, without limitation, the Purchaser’s right to indemnification under this Agreement; or (z) be deemed to be an agreement or admission regarding the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement.

7.3         Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a)          Each of the Sellers agrees that, except as permitted under the Concurrent HPS Reseller Agreement, from the Closing until the third (3^rd) anniversary of the Closing (the “Covenant Period”), it shall not (and it will cause each of its Affiliates not to), directly or indirectly, alone or in association with any other Person, own, manage, operate, control, participate in, invest in, perform services for, or otherwise carry on or engage in any business, which, directly or indirectly is in competition with the Business as conducted as of the Closing.

(b)          Each of the Sellers agrees that, except as permitted under the Concurrent HPS Reseller Agreement, during the Covenant Period, it will not (and it will cause each of its Affiliates not to), directly or indirectly, solicit or recruit any Transferred Employees or encourage any Transferred Employee to terminate his or her employment with the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prohibitions in this Section 7.3(b) do not prohibit (i) the solicitation or recruitment of any Transferred Employee whose employment with the Purchaser has been terminated for six (6) months prior to such solicitation or recruitment; or (ii) the placement of general solicitations or offers for employment not targeted or specifically directed at Transferred Employees.

63.

(c)          For the duration of the Covenant Period, each Seller agrees that, except with respect to its ownership of the Concurrent HPS Equity prior to the Concurrent HPS Closing, it will not (and will cause each of its Affiliates not to), without the prior written consent of Purchaser, have any direct or indirect interest in any Person (whether as director, member, partner, principal, proprietor, agent, consultant, officer, employee, independent contractor or as stockholder or investor owning either unlisted or untraded debt or equity securities or more than five percent (5%) of any class of the issued and outstanding securities of a corporation that is traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market, or as a creditor or otherwise) that engages in any material respect in any business, trade or venture competing with any aspect of the Business, as conducted as of the Closing.

(d)          The obligations of each Seller under this Section 7.3 shall be in addition to any obligations such Seller may have under any other Contract or applicable Law. If a final judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any term or provision contained in this Section 7.3 is invalid or unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power (but without affecting the right of the Sellers or the Purchaser to obtain the relief provided for in this Section 7.3 in any jurisdiction other than such court’s or tribunal’s jurisdiction) to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This Section 7.3 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the Purchaser’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Business and the Purchased Assets and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on the Sellers and their successors. To the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, each Seller hereby waives on its own behalf and on behalf of its successors, any provision of Law which renders any provision of this Section 7.3 invalid, void or unenforceable in any respect.

(e)          Each Seller acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach of this Section 7.3 would give rise to irreparable harm to the Purchaser, for which monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy, and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by any Seller of any such obligations, the Purchaser shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond).

7.4         No Other Acquisition Proposals.

(a)          The Sellers shall immediately cease any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

64.

(c)          As promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt of any Acquisition Proposal or any request for nonpublic information relating to the Business, the Sellers shall provide the Purchaser with oral and written notice of the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and a copy of all written materials provided in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry. The Sellers shall provide the Purchaser as promptly as reasonably practicable oral and written notice setting forth all such information as is reasonably necessary to keep the Purchaser informed of the status and details (including amendments or proposed amendments) of any such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry and shall promptly provide to the Purchaser a copy of all written materials subsequently provided in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, request or inquiry.

7.5         Waiver of Bulk Sales Requirement. Each of the parties waives compliance with any applicable bulk sales laws, including, without limitation, the Uniform Commercial Code Bulk Transfer provisions; it being understood that any Liabilities arising out of the failure of any Seller to comply with the requirements and provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction which would not otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities shall be treated as Excluded Liabilities.

7.6         Subsequent Actions. After the Closing (and with respect to the Concurrent HPS Equity and the Concurrent HPS Assets, after the Concurrent HPS Closing) if the Purchaser shall consider or be advised that any deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, assignments, assurances or any other actions or things are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm ownership (of record or otherwise) in the Purchaser, its right, title or interest in, to or under any or all of the Purchased Assets or otherwise to carry out this Agreement (including the transfer of the Concurrent HPS Equity to Purchaser if the Concurrent HPS Closing occurs), then the Sellers shall execute and deliver all deeds, bills of sale, instruments of conveyance, powers of attorney, assignments and assurances and take and do all such other actions and things as may be requested by the Purchaser in order to vest, perfect or confirm any and all right, title and interest in, to and under such rights, properties or assets in the Purchaser or otherwise to carry out this Agreement.

Each such Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate and take all reasonable efforts to avoid DSS from taking any adverse action in connection with the security clearances of any Transferred Employees or the facilities where they work.

Without limiting the foregoing, within seven (7) days following the Closing Date, Seller Parent shall deliver to Purchaser a complete electronic copy of the contents of the Dataroom as existing forty-eight (48) hours prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

(b)          The Purchaser and its representatives shall have the right, at reasonable times upon request, to inspect and to make copies of any books, records and files (including Contracts and Tax Returns) retained by a Seller relating to the Purchased Assets for purposes of performing or enforcing obligations or rights under this Agreement. Such books, records and files shall be retained until at least the six (6) year anniversary of the Closing; provided, however, that in no case shall the destruction of any Tax Return take place before the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations and any extensions thereof applicable to such Tax Return and (ii) eight (8) years following the filing date for such Tax Return.

67.

8.2         Commercially Reasonable Best Efforts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 8.3 with respect to Non-Transferable Assets), each of the parties hereto agrees, from time to time and after the Closing Date, to use their respective commercially reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.2 shall obligate the parties hereto or their respective Affiliates to agree (i) to limit or not to exercise any rights of ownership of any securities, or to divest, dispose of or hold separate any securities or all or any portion of their respective businesses, assets or properties or (ii) to limit in any manner whatsoever the ability of such entities (A) to conduct their respective businesses or own such assets or properties or (B) to control their respective businesses or operations.

8.3         Non-Transferable Assets.

(a)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents, nothing contained in this Agreement or in any of the Transaction Documents shall be construed as, or constitute, an attempt, agreement or other undertaking to transfer or assign to the Purchaser any asset, property or right that would otherwise constitute a Purchased Asset, but that by its terms is not transferable or assignable to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement without the consent, waiver, approval, authorization, qualification or other order or one or more Governmental Authorities or other Persons. If such consent, waiver, approval, authorization, qualification or other order is not obtained prior to the Closing, then such asset, property or right shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement (including the provisions of Section 8.2 and this Section 8.3), not be assigned or transferred to Purchaser at the Closing (each, a “Non-Transferable Asset”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, all references within the representations and warranties set forth in Article V to “the Purchased Assets,” “Contracts included within the Purchased Assets” or phrases of similar import or meaning will be deemed to include reference to Non-Transferable Assets for the purposes of making such representations and warranties.

68.

(b)          Except as otherwise contemplated by the Transition Services Agreement, from and after the Closing and, with respect to each such Non-Transferable Asset, each of the sellers Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other, will use their reasonable efforts (but without any payment of money by Purchaser or its Affiliates) to obtain the consent, waiver, approval, authorization, qualification or other order of the other parties to any such Non-Transferable Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Purchaser as Purchaser may request. Without limiting the foregoing, until the earlier to occur of (i) such time as such Non-Transferable Asset shall be properly and lawfully transferred or assigned to the Purchaser and (ii) such time as the benefits intended to be transferred or assigned to the Purchaser have been procured by alternative means pursuant to this Section 8.3, each Seller shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in any reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide the benefits of such Non-Transferable Assets to Purchaser as if such Non-Transferable Assets were Purchased Assets transferred to Purchaser at the Closing and, if Sellers provide such rights and benefits, Purchaser shall assume all obligations and burdens thereunder (to the extent the same would have otherwise been an Assumed Liability), including by way of subcontracting, sub-licensing, or sub-leasing to Purchaser, or under which Sellers would enforce for the benefit of Purchaser any and all rights of Sellers or their Affiliates against a third party thereto (with any out of pocket incremental costs or expenses associated with such arrangements to be borne by the Sellers). The Sellers will promptly pay to Purchaser any monies received by any Seller from and after the Closing under such Non-Transferable Assets or any benefit arising thereunder, except to the extent the same represents an Excluded Asset. Promptly upon receipt of such consent, waiver, approval, authorization, qualification or other order the applicable Seller(s) will transfer and assign a Non-Transferable Asset (which would, at such point, be a Purchased Asset) and such rights therein to the Purchaser without the payment by the Purchaser of any additional consideration. To the extent any Non-Transferable Asset or the rights thereunder may not be assigned to the Purchaser by reason of the absence of any such consent, waiver, approval, authorization, qualification or other order and provided only to the extent no portion of the economic claims, rights or benefits under such asset are received by the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall not assume any Assumed Liabilities to the extent based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of such Non-Transferable Asset.

(c)          Without limiting the foregoing, prior to the Closing, the applicable Seller(s) and the Purchaser shall cooperate to prepare, and as soon as practicable following the Closing, such Seller(s) shall submit to the Responsible Contracting Officer, as determined and defined pursuant to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) 42.1202, or other responsible officer of the Governmental Authority party thereto, novation documents in accordance with Subpart 42.12 of the FAR and any applicable agency regulations or policies or terms governing the novation of Business Government Contracts, in each case, to recognize the Purchaser as the successor in interest to such Business Government Contract. The novation documents shall include all required and applicable documents, including those listed in FAR 42.1204(e) and (f), a request for the novation of all applicable Business Government Contracts and if required, a novation agreement. Each such Seller shall also seek any consents required under or pursuant to any Business Government Contract, including responding promptly to any requests for information or documentation by a Governmental Authority in connection with the novation process.

69.

8.4         Transferred Employees.

(a)          The Sellers shall deliver to the Purchaser a true and complete list, no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, of (i) the names, titles, annualized salary and other compensation of all Employees, the identities of which the Purchaser and the Seller Parent shall, in good faith, agree to in writing (together, the “Business Employees”) and (ii) all Persons who are currently performing services for the Business by or on behalf of any Selling Company who are classified as “consultants” or “independent contractors” (the “Other Personnel”). On or before the Closing Date, except as set forth on Section 8.4  of the Disclosure Schedule, the Purchaser shall (or shall cause one of its Affiliates to) (i) offer employment, effective immediately following the Closing, to all such Business Employees (excluding, in each case, such Business Employees who are Concurrent HPS Employees (“Concurrent HPS Business Employees”)), including those Business Employees (but excluding those Concurrent HPS Business Employees) who are at the time employed in H-1B nonimmigrant visa status under the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, as amended, by Seller (such status hereinafter “H-1B Status” and such Business Employees the “H-1B Employees”), or those Business Employees (but excluding those Concurrent HPS Business Employees) who are at the time on a military leave, on a leave of absence under the Family Medical Leave Act or comparable state law, on workers’ compensation leave, or on a long-term or short-term disability leave, and (ii) file an H-1B petition  with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and/or take any other action(s) required under said Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder to ensure the continued employment by the Purchaser of each such H-1B Employee in valid H-1B Status on and after the Closing Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise set forth on Section 8.4 of the Disclosure Schedule, such Business Employees shall remain employed “at will,” and the Purchaser may terminate at any time after the Closing the employment of any Business Employee who accepts such offer of employment. On or before the Concurrent HPS Closing Date, except as set forth on Section 8.4  of the Disclosure Schedule, the Purchaser shall (or shall cause one of its Affiliates to) (i) offer employment, effective immediately following the Concurrent HPS Closing, to all Concurrent HPS Business Employees, including those Concurrent HPS Business Employees who are at the time H-1B Employees, or those Concurrent HPS Business Employees who are at the time on a military leave, on a leave of absence under the Family Medical Leave Act or comparable state law, on workers’ compensation leave, or on a long-term or short-term disability leave, and (ii) file an H-1B petition  with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and/or take any other action(s) required under said Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder to ensure the continued employment by the Purchaser of each such H-1B Employee in valid H-1B Status on and after the Concurrent HPS Closing Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise set forth on Section 8.4 of the Disclosure Schedule, such Concurrent HPS Business Employees shall remain employed “at will,” and the Purchaser may terminate at any time after the Concurrent HPS Closing the employment of any Concurrent HPS Business Employee who accepts such offer of employment. Such offers shall include base compensation and employee benefits (other than equity or equity-based compensation and any retention, transaction or change of control bonuses or benefits under any defined benefit plan or deferred compensation plan) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the base compensation and employee benefits (other than equity or equity-based compensation and any retention, transaction or change of control bonuses or benefits under any defined benefit plan or deferred compensation plan) provided by the applicable Seller to such Business Employees (a) in the case of Business Employees who are not Concurrent HPS Business Employees “Non-Concurrent HPS Business Employees”, immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (b) in the case of such Concurrent HPS Business Employees, immediately prior to the Concurrent HPS Closing; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, retain the ability at any time (1) after Closing to modify the base compensation and employee benefits of any Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee (as defined below) and (2) after the Concurrent HPS Closing to modify the base compensation and employee benefits of any Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee (as defined below) and, in any such case, nothing herein shall require the Purchaser to continue to employ any Transferred Employee (as defined below) for any specified period or to maintain substantially comparable base compensation and employee benefits for any specified period after Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable). Non-Concurrent HPS Business Employees who accept the Purchaser’s offer of employment are herein referred to as “Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employees.” Concurrent HPS Business Employees who accept the Purchaser’s offer of employment are herein referred to as “Concurrent HPS Transferred Employees.” The Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employees and the Concurrent HPS Transferred Employees are herein referred to together as “Transferred Employees.” For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall not be obligated to continue or assume any Liabilities with respect to any Benefit Arrangements, and, except as provided in Section 8.4(d), the Sellers shall remain responsible for the payment to the Non-Current HPS Transferred Employees of salary and benefits through the Closing and the payment to the Current HPS Transferred Employees of salary and benefits through the Concurrent HPS Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser or its Affiliates shall provide severance benefits to Transferred Employees who are terminated by the Purchaser during the one year period following the Closing in an amount, and consistent with the terms and conditions, provided under the severance plan maintained by the Seller immediately prior to the Closing and set forth on Exhibit L hereto. The employment of each Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee shall be deemed terminated with the Sellers as of the Closing, and each such Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee shall become an employee of the Purchaser or one of its Affiliates immediately following the Closing. The employment of each Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee shall be deemed terminated with Concurrent HPS as of the Concurrent HPS Closing, and each such Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee shall become an employee of the Purchaser or one of its Affiliates immediately following the Concurrent HPS Closing. As such, on the first normal payroll date at the end of the first full payroll cycle (1) following the Closing, the Sellers shall pay and cause to be satisfied or discharged any Liabilities (whether or not such Liabilities are accrued or payable at Closing, and whether or not such Liabilities are contingent in nature) with respect to any Non-Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee to the extent relating to the termination of employment of any such employee prior to or effective as of the Closing (as well as any Liability for severance or dismissal pay or otherwise in connection with any unlawful termination of employment by Sellers, or for accrued vacation or sick time or for salary, overtime, commissions, bonuses or pension fund contributions) and (2) following the Concurrent HPS Closing, the Sellers shall pay and cause to be satisfied or discharged (or cause Concurrent HPS to pay and cause to be satisfied or discharged) any Liabilities (whether or not such Liabilities are accrued or payable at the Concurrent HPS Closing, and whether or not such Liabilities are contingent in nature) with respect to any Concurrent HPS Transferred Employee to the extent relating to the termination of employment of any such employee prior to or effective as of the Concurrent HPS Closing (as well as any Liability for severance or dismissal pay or otherwise in connection with any unlawful termination of employment by Concurrent HPS, or for accrued vacation or sick time or for salary, overtime, commissions, bonuses or pension fund contributions).

70.

(b)          The Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, recognize the prior service and seniority of each Transferred Employee as if such service had been performed with, and such seniority has been earned with, the Purchaser and/or its Affiliates, as applicable, for purposes of eligibility and vesting, as applicable, under the employee benefit plans and policies (if any) provided by the Purchaser to the Transferred Employees following the Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable), to the same extent such service and seniority is recognized by the Seller or its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable). With respect to any welfare plan maintained by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in which Transferred Employees are eligible to participate after the Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable), the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, and to cause its Affiliates to, to the extent permitted by Law and subject to the terms of the relevant employee benefit plans or Contracts, (i) waive all waiting periods, limitations as to preexisting conditions and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such Transferred Employees (and dependents) to the extent such periods, conditions and exclusions were satisfied or did not apply to such Transferred Employees (and dependents) under the welfare plans maintained by Seller or any of its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable), and (ii) provide each Transferred Employee (and dependents) with credit for any costs and expenses incurred or paid by such Transferred Employee (and dependents) during the plan year in which the Closing or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable) occurs in satisfying any deductible, co-pays, co-insurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions to the extent applicable under any such plan.

71.

(c)          The Sellers shall not take (and shall cause their Affiliates not to take) any action that would impede, hinder, interfere or otherwise compete with the Purchaser’s effort to hire any Transferred Employee. The Purchaser shall not assume responsibility for any such employee until such employee commences employment with the Purchaser, but in no event whatsoever shall the Purchaser assume any responsibility for any commitment or liability of the Seller or any Affiliate to any such employee. The Sellers shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) use their reasonable best efforts to assist the Purchaser in the Purchaser’s hiring of certain of the Transferred Employees and in its entering into consulting arrangements with any Other Personnel.

(d)          No assets of any Benefit Arrangement shall be transferred to the Purchaser or to any plan of the Purchaser, without the written consent of the Purchaser. However, with respect to any Seller 401(k) retirement plan, the applicable Seller shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) cooperate and assist any Transferred Employee who so requests, in making a direct rollover of the Transferred Employee’s vested account balance to the Purchaser’s 401(k) plan as soon as practicable after the Closing Date or the Concurrent HPS Closing (as applicable). The Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the applicable Seller and any Transferred Employee with respect to such direct rollover, provided that the Purchaser determines that the direct rollover is permitted under the Code and regulations thereunder. Each of the parties hereto shall pay its own expenses in connection with such direct rollover.

(e)          No provision of this Section 8.4 shall create any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any Business Employee or any other employee or former employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of the Sellers in respect of continued employment (or resumed employment) with the Purchaser, and no provision of this Section 8.4 shall create any such rights in any such Persons in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Benefit Arrangement or any plan or arrangement that may be established by the Purchaser. No provision of this Agreement shall constitute a limitation on rights to amend, modify or terminate after the Closing Date or the Concurrent HPS Closing Date (as applicable) any such plans or arrangements of the Seller or the Purchaser. No provision of this Agreement shall cause any employee to be a third party beneficiary of any rights herein.

10.2       Indemnification by the Sellers.

(a)          The Sellers hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and defend Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each of the Concurrent NC and Concurrent Asia Corp from and after the Closing and Concurrent HPS from and after the Concurrent HPS Closing) and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives and their successors in interest and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnitees”) against and agree to hold Purchaser Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses of any nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, claims, diminution in value (but only to the extent of such diminution in value and not including any diminution calculated based on a multiple of earnings or revenue), amounts paid in settlement, judgment, award, fine, penalty, Tax, fee (including any reasonable expert fee, accounting fee or advisory fee), charge, cost (including reasonable cost of investigation), including the cost of enforcing any right to indemnification hereunder and the cost of pursuing any insurance providers, but excluding punitive, unforeseeable consequential, indirect or special damages (except to the extent awarded in any proceeding by a third party against an Indemnified Party with respect to a matter for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to this Article X) or speculative damages, except to the extent awarded to third parties (collectively, “Losses”) incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, any Purchaser Indemnitee based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(ii)         any of the covenants or agreements of any of the Sellers contained in this Agreement;

(iii)        any and all Excluded Liabilities incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, any Purchaser Indemnitee based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of any Excluded Liability (other than Liabilities described in Section 2.5(b) which will be governed exclusively by Section 11.1); and

(iv)        any and all Non-Permitted Leakage.

(b)          Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement (including the representations and warranties in Article V), the Sellers hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and defend the Purchaser Indemnitees against and agree to hold Purchaser Indemnitees harmless from and against:

10.3       Indemnification by the Purchaser. Purchaser hereby agrees to indemnify and defend each Seller and its Affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives and their successors in interest and assigns (excluding, from and after the Closing, any Transferred Company) (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against and agrees to hold Seller Indemnitees harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, any Seller Indemnitee based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a)          any inaccuracy in, or breach of (or alleged inaccuracy in or alleged breach of), any of the representations or warranties of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement or the exhibits, certificates, schedules or instruments delivered in connection herewith;

(b)          any of the covenants or agreements of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement; and

(c)          any Assumed Liability.

10.4       Procedures.

(a)          The party seeking indemnification under this Article X (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt written notice (the “Notice of Claim”) to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding by a third party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article X which notice shall (i) identify specifically the basis under which indemnification is sought pursuant to Sections 10.2 and 10.3, as applicable, to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances, (ii) enclose true and correct copies of any written document furnished to the Indemnified Party that instituted a third party claim, (iii) include the Indemnified Party’s best estimate of the Losses that may arise from such claim and (iv) describe in reasonable detail the basis for the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability or obligation hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice.

76.

(b)          If such Notice of Claim relates to a suit, action or proceeding by a third party, the Indemnifying Party may upon written notice given to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days of the receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Notice of Claim, assume control of the defense of such action, suit or proceeding with counsel of its choosing. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense, or if the indemnifying party fails to give reasonable written assurance to the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s financial capacity to defend and/or provide indemnification as required hereby, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control such defense. The party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense; provided that, if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and there exists a conflict of interest between the interests of the Indemnified Party and those of the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim, or if the Indemnifying Party shall fail to assume responsibility for such defense, the Indemnified Party may retain counsel satisfactory to it and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Purchaser determines, in its reasonable judgment, that a claim is likely to materially adversely affect it or the Purchased Assets other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, then Purchaser may, by written notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such claim and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel shall be considered Losses for purposes of this Agreement. In all such cases, Seller Parent will have the right to participate, at Seller Parent’s expense, in the defense or settlement of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser. The party controlling such defense shall keep the other party reasonably advised of the status of such action, suit or proceeding and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the other party with respect thereto.

(c)          The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding that contains a payment obligation in an amount in excess of the then-remaining amounts in the Escrow Account that are not otherwise subject to pending claims or requires action (or limits action) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. For purposes hereof, the Indemnified Party’s withholding of its consent to any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a complete irrevocable release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation or which requires action (or limits action) other than the payment of such amounts from the Escrow Account in accordance with the preceding sentence by the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to be reasonable.

(d)          In the event that an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification for Losses pursuant to this Article X, the procedures in this subsection (d) shall also apply. Within 45 days after delivery of a Notice of Claim setting forth all the information required to be contained under Section 10.4(c), the Indemnifying Party shall provide to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party must either: (i) agree that some or all of the Losses claimed should be indemnified and, in the case of any Losses claimed and not so agreed to, contest such claimed amount in good faith, or (ii) contest all of the Losses claimed in good faith. If no such Response Notice is delivered by the Indemnifying Party within such 45-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed that all of the claimed amount should be indemnified.

77.

(e)          If the Indemnifying Party in the Response Notice contests all or part of the claimed amount (thereupon, the “Contested Amount”), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt promptly and in good faith to agree upon the rights of the parties with respect to the Contested Amount. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and, if such agreement provides that all or a portion of the Contested Amount is to be paid to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall make such payments in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If no such agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation within 30 days of the delivery of the Indemnifying Party’s Response Notice (or such longer period as the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party may mutually agree), the matter shall be settled in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement.

(f)          This Section 10.4 shall not apply to Tax Claims, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 11.1.

10.5       Limits on Indemnification. The parties’ liability under this Article X shall be limited as follows (except as provided in Sections 11.1 and 13.16):

(a)          Threshold. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, no Indemnified Party shall assert any claims for indemnification pursuant to Sections 10.2(a)(i) or 10.3(a) unless and until the total aggregate cumulative Losses incurred by it exceed $350,000 (the “Threshold”), in which case such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the full amount of such Losses (including the initial Threshold amount). In addition and without in any way limiting the foregoing, no Indemnified Party shall assert any individual claim or series of related claims under Section 10.2(a)(i) related to a breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 5.9 (Sufficiency of Purchased Assets) unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses that would be payable pursuant to such claim exceeds an amount equal to $35,000 (the “Mini-Basket”), in which case such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the full amount of such Losses (including the amount of the Mini-Basket). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the foregoing Threshold limitation shall not apply in the case of any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to (i) intentional misrepresentations, fraud or criminal matters, or (ii) breaches or inaccuracies of any of the Fundamental Representations. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing Threshold limitation shall also not apply with respect to any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to any of the matters set forth in Sections 10.2(a)(ii), 10.2(a)(iii) and 10.2(b) or Sections 10.3(b) and 10.3(c).

(b)          Cap. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, the Sellers’ aggregate monetary liability pursuant to the indemnification provisions of Section 10.2(a)(i) shall not exceed the Escrow Amount (the “Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the Cap shall not apply in the case of any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to (i) fraud or (ii) breaches or inaccuracies of any of the Fundamental Representations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Cap shall also not apply with respect to any Losses or other indemnification matter based upon, arising out of, or relating to any of the matters set forth in Sections 10.2(a)(ii), 10.2(a)(iii) and 10.2(b). The rights to indemnification of the Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 10.2 (other than under Section 10.2(a)(i), which shall be governed by the preceding sentences of this Section 10.5(b)) shall be limited to the sum of the Total Purchase Price and the Concurrent HPS Equity Payment, except in the case of fraud (in which case, no such limitations shall apply).

78.

(c)          Any indemnification to which a Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled pursuant to Section 10.2 (other than with respect to Losses arising from or related to fraud) shall be satisfied by first recouping such indemnifiable Losses from the Escrow Account by such Purchaser Indemnitee in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, that after the Purchaser Indemnitees have exhausted or made claims upon the Escrow Account (after taking into account all other claims for indemnification from the Escrow Account made by Purchaser Indemnitees), such Purchaser Indemnitee shall have all rights and remedies available to it to recover additional Losses to the extent they are based upon, arising out of, or relating to (i) intentional misrepresentations, fraud or criminal matters, (ii) breaches or inaccuracies of any of the Fundamental Representations or (iii) the matters set forth in Sections 10.2(a)(ii), 10.2(a)(iii) and 10.2(b).

10.6       Character of Indemnity Payments. All amounts paid pursuant to this Article X shall be treated by such parties as adjustments to the purchase price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

79.

(b)          For purposes of Section 11.1(a)(3), the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be: (i) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (i) above (such as payroll Taxes, Taxes imposed upon or measured by income, Taxes based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible)), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and in the case of any Taxes attributable to the ownership of any equity interest in any partnership or other “flowthrough” entity or “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code or any comparable state, local or non-U.S. Law), as if the taxable period of such partnership or other “flowthrough” entity or “controlled foreign corporation” ended as of the end of the Closing Date).

(c)          The Sellers and their Affiliates shall not permit to exist any Tax deficiencies (including penalties and interest) assessed against or relating to them with respect to taxable periods ending on or before, or including, the Closing Date of a character or nature that could reasonably be expected to result in liens or claims on any of the Purchased Assets or on the Purchaser’s title or use of the Purchased Assets following the Closing Date or that would reasonably be expected to result in any claim against the Purchaser.

11.2       Tax Returns.

(a)          The Sellers shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, (i) any combined, consolidated or unitary Tax Return that includes any Seller or any Affiliate of the Sellers (other than the Transferred Companies), on the one hand, and any of the Transferred Companies, on the other hand (a “Combined Tax Return”), (ii) all Tax Returns (other than Combined Tax Returns) of the Transferred Companies for taxable periods that end on or prior to the Closing Date (“Separate Pre-Closing Tax Returns”), and (iii) all Tax Returns of Concurrent HPS (other than Separate Pre-Closing Tax Returns) that are required to be filed (taking into account any extension) on or before the Concurrent HPS Closing Date (“Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Returns”).

At least twenty (20) days (thirty (30) days in the case of an income Tax Return) prior to the date on which each Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return, Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Return, or Straddle Period Tax Return is required to be filed, Seller Parent shall submit such Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return or Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Return to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall submit any such Straddle Period Tax Return that shows any Taxes subject to indemnification under Section 11.1 to Seller Parent, in each case for the other’s review and comment as provided in this Section 11.2(b); provided that failure to provide a draft of such Tax Return within the specified time shall not affect the indemnification provided under Section 11.1 except to the extent other party is actually prejudiced by such failure. Purchaser and Seller Parent shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by the other. If Purchaser and Seller Parent are unable to resolve a dispute regarding such Tax Return within ten (10) days after submission of the Tax Return to the other, the dispute shall be resolved by the Accounting Referee in the same manner as disputes are intended to be resolved pursuant to Section 3.3(b); provided that in the event the Accounting Referee has not yet resolved any such dispute prior to the deadline for filing the applicable Tax Return, a Seller shall be entitled to timely file (or cause to be timely filed) any Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Return as it sees fit, and Purchaser shall be entitled to timely file (or cause to be timely filed) any Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return as it sees fit, provided that each agrees to promptly amend such Tax Return to reflect the determination of the Accounting Referee upon the resolution of such dispute.

80.

(c)          Seller Parent shall include the income of Concurrent France (including any deferred items triggered into income by Section 1.1502-13 of the Treasury Regulations and any excess loss account taken into income under Section 1.1502-19 of the Treasury Regulations) on Seller Parent’s consolidated federal income Tax Returns for all periods through the Closing Date and pay any federal income Taxes attributable to such income. The Sellers shall pay (in immediately available funds) to the Purchaser at least two (2) Business Days prior to the due date the amount of Taxes subject to indemnification under Section 11.1 that are due and owing for any Separate Pre-Closing Tax Return, Straddle Period Tax Return, and any Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Returns that are filed after the Concurrent HPS Closing Date. The Sellers shall cause Concurrent HPS to timely pay to the applicable Taxing Authority any Taxes due and owing for any Concurrent HPS Pre-Closing Tax Returns that are filed on or before the Concurrent HPS Closing Date.

If the Purchaser opts to make a Section 338 Election in respect of any of the Transferred Companies, the Seller Parent shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) take the actions reasonably requested, including filing forms, returns, elections, schedules and other documents as may be requested, to effect, perfect and preserve a timely Section 338 Election in accordance with the provisions of Section 338 of the Code, applicable Treasury Regulations and any corresponding election under state, local or foreign Tax Law necessary or required to make the Section Election. The Seller Parent shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other Tax item resulting from the Section 338(h)(10) Election on its Tax Return to the extent required by Law. The Seller Parent, the Purchaser, and their Affiliates shall report the sale and acquisition of the Equity Interests of any Transferred Company pursuant to this Agreement for which the Purchaser opts to make a Section 338 Election as a “qualified stock purchase,” within the meaning of Section 338(d)(3) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations consistent with the Section 338 Election, and shall take no position to the contrary thereto in any Tax Return, in any Tax Claim or other action before any Taxing Authority or otherwise for any income Tax purpose.

The Sellers will, at their own expense, file such Tax Returns and, to the extent required by Law, the parties hereto will cooperate in the execution other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes, and the Purchaser (and the HPS Share Purchaser, to the extent applicable) shall cooperate with the Sellers in connection with the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns and other documentation as may be required to comply with the provisions of such Tax Laws, and the Purchaser, the HPS Share Purchaser, and the Sellers will reasonably cooperate with each other to lawfully minimize any such Taxes.

11.4       Tax-Sharing Agreements. Any tax-sharing agreement between a Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than any Transferred Company) and any of the Transferred Companies shall terminate as of the Closing Date and shall have no further effect for any taxable year (whether the current year, a future year, or a past year).

11.5       Cooperation. Each party agrees to furnish or cause to be furnished to the other party, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Business and the Purchased Assets (including access to books and records, employees, contractors and representatives and providing necessary powers of attorney) as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns, the making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for and participation in any audit by any Taxing Authority, and the prosecution or defense of any action relating to any Tax Return.

11.6       Tax Claims.

(a)          The Purchaser shall promptly notify the Seller Parent in writing upon receipt by any Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of any written notice from a Taxing Authority of an audit, claim or proceeding with respect to Taxes for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may be entitled to indemnification under Section 11.1, and the Sellers shall promptly notify the Purchaser in writing upon receipt by any Seller or any of their Affiliates of any written notice from a Taxing Authority of an audit, claim or proceeding with respect to any Combined Tax Return to the extent such audit, claim or proceeding relates to a Transferred Company (each audit, claim or proceeding described in this Section 11.6(a), a “Tax Claim”); provided that failure to so notify the other party in accordance with this sentence will not relieve any party of liability that it may have under this Agreement except to the extent the other party is actually prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the relevant Taxing Authority and describe in reasonable detail the nature of such Tax Claim.

(b)          The Sellers shall have the right, at their sole cost and expense, to control in good faith any Tax Claim that relates solely to one or more taxable periods that end on or prior to the Closing Date or to a Combined Tax Return (including the right to settle or compromise such Tax Claim); provided, however that: (i) the Sellers will keep the Purchaser informed concerning the progress, developments and events of the portion of such Tax Claim, if any, related to the Transferred Companies, the Business, or the Purchased Assets; (ii) the Sellers will provide to the Purchaser copies of all correspondence and other documents relevant to the portion of such Tax Claim, if any, related to the Transferred Companies, the Business, or the Purchased Assets; and (iii) the Sellers will not settle the portion of such Tax Claim (other than a claim relating to a Combined Tax Return), if any, related to the Transferred Companies, the Business, or the Purchased Assets, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

83.

(c)          With respect to any Tax Claim (other than a claim relating to a Combined Tax Return) that could reasonably be expected to form the basis for a claim of indemnification under Section 11.1 and involving (i) a Pre-Closing Tax Period that the Sellers do not or cannot elect to control in good faith pursuant to Section 11.6(b) or (ii) a Straddle Period, the Purchaser will control in good faith such Tax Claim (including the right to settle or compromise such Tax Claim); provided, however, that the Purchaser (x) will keep the Sellers reasonably informed concerning the progress, developments and events of such Tax Claim, (y) provide the Sellers copies of all correspondence and other documents relevant to such Tax Claim to the extent related to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, and (z) will not settle such Tax Claim to the extent relating to Pre-Closing Tax Periods without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In addition, the Sellers will have the right to participate in the defense of any such Tax Claim (which will include participation in meetings with taxing authorities and review and comment on written submissions to taxing authorities) and to employ counsel, at the Sellers’ expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Purchaser. The Sellers shall also be liable for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of counsel selected by the Purchaser to control any Tax Claim pursuant to this Section 11.6(c) to the extent attributable to Taxes covered by Section 11.1.

11.7       Tax Refunds. The Sellers shall be entitled to any federal, state, local or foreign income tax refunds of the Transferred Companies attributable to Taxes described in Section 11.1(a) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Japanese consumption tax refunds if and when paid to Concurrent NC that are attributable to credits for taxes paid by Affiliates of Concurrent NC in connection with the Nippon Separation (but only if and to the extent such refunds do not reduce the Taxes for which Sellers are responsible pursuant to Section 11.1(a))) that are paid on or prior to the Closing Date or indemnified by Sellers, net of (x) any costs, expenses and Taxes incurred by Purchaser, the Transferred Companies or any of their Affiliates in obtaining such refund, and (y) any amounts then due from the Sellers to the Purchaser Indemnitees, except to the extent such Tax refunds (i) are reflected as a Current Asset in Working Capital, as finally determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) are attributable to carrybacks of net operating losses or Tax credits from Tax periods, or portions thereof, beginning after the Closing Date. Purchaser shall be entitled to all Tax refunds of the Transferred Companies to which Sellers are not entitled under the preceding sentence. If Purchaser or any of the Transferred Companies, on the one hand, or the Sellers, on the other hand, receive any Tax refund to which the other party is entitled pursuant to this Section 11.7, the recipient of such Tax refund will promptly pay the amount of such Tax refund to the other party. In the event that any such Tax refund is subsequently disallowed in whole or part by any Taxing Authority, Sellers shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees for any Losses with respect thereto.

11.8       Wage Reporting. The Purchaser and the Sellers agree to utilize or cause their respective Affiliates to utilize, the standard procedure set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-2 C.B. 320, with respect to wage reporting for Transferred Employees.

11.9       Survival. Each of Purchaser’s and Sellers’ obligations under this Article XI shall survive until sixty (60) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations with respect to the applicable Tax; provided that if a written claim or written notice is duly given in good faith under this Article XI with respect to any claim for indemnification prior to such date, such claim shall continue until such claim is finally resolved pursuant to this Article XI. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in Article X shall not apply to the indemnification obligations under this Article XI except to the extent the limitations in Article X expressly apply to Article XI.

84.

(i)          by mutual written agreement of the Seller Parent and the Purchaser;

(ii)         by the Purchaser, if (A) the Sellers shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of their obligations, covenants or agreements under this Agreement, or if any of the representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in this Agreement shall not be true in any material respect, in each case such that Seller Parent could not deliver to the Purchaser at the Concurrent HPS Closing an accurate certificate as contemplated by Section 9.2(a), and (B) such breach, failure or misrepresentation is not cured to the Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction within thirty (30) Business Days after the Purchaser gives the Seller Parent written notice identifying in reasonable detail such breach, failure or misrepresentation;

(iii)        by the Purchaser or Seller Parent, if consummation of the Concurrent HPS Share Purchase is subject to any nonappealable final Governmental Order, that prohibits, makes illegal, enjoins or prevents the consummation of the Concurrent HPS Share Purchase; or

(iv)        by the Purchaser or Seller Parent, if the Concurrent HPS Closing has not occurred on or prior to July 15, 2017.

(b)        The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 12.1(a) shall give prompt written notice of such termination to the other party.

12.2       Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of the HPS Purchase Obligations pursuant to Section 12.1, the HPS Purchase Obligations of the parties to effect the Concurrent HPS Share Purchase and consummate the Concurrent HPS Closing under this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability or further obligation on the part of the parties or their respective officers or directors (except for obligations in this Section 12.2 and in Article XIII, all of which shall survive the termination) with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of the HPS Purchase Obligations shall not affect any of the other rights and obligations of the parties hereunder; and, for avoidance of doubt, except in the case of fraud, no Person shall have the right to rescind the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets effected at the Closing.

85.

12.3       Frustration of Conditions. Neither the Purchaser, on the one hand, nor the Sellers, on the other, may rely on the failure of any condition set forth herein to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s failure to comply with or perform any of its covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement.

87.

13.5       Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, modified and supplemented by the Purchaser and the Seller Parent. This Agreement may not be amended, except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the Purchaser and the Seller Parent.

Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. The failure of a party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

13.6       Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.

13.7       Enforcement; Jurisdiction.
