(b)Payment of Closing Consideration. At the Closing, Buyer shall pay to Seller the Estimated Purchase Price, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the applicable wiring instructions set forth in the Payment Statement.

Section 1.5Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a)No later than forty-five (45) days after the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller the balance sheet of the Acquired Entity (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), as of the Closing Date, together with a statement (the “Proposed Final Closing Statement”), setting forth in reasonable detail its proposed final determination of the RBC Amount as of the Closing Date and the Purchase Price calculated based on such determination.

(b)If Seller disagrees with any item reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet or Proposed Final Closing Statement, Seller must notify Buyer in writing of its objection (“Notice of Disagreement”) within thirty (30) days after the date on which Seller received the Closing Balance Sheet and the Proposed Final Closing Statement. During such thirty (30) day period, Buyer and the Acquired Entity shall provide Seller and its representatives with reasonable access to personnel, books, records and working papers related to the Closing Balance Sheet and the Proposed Final Closing Statement. If Seller does not deliver a Notice of Disagreement within such 30-day period, the Proposed Final Closing Statement shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties for purposes of calculating the Purchase Price. If Seller delivers a Notice of Disagreement within such 30-day period, Seller and Buyer shall attempt to reconcile their differences in good faith, and any written resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties.

Buyer and the Acquired Entity shall provide the Independent Accountants, Seller and their respective representatives with reasonable access to personnel, books, records and working papers related to the Closing Balance Sheets and the Proposed Final Closing Statement during the period of review by the Independent Accountants. The Independent Accountants shall act as arbitrator with respect to the determination of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Proposed Final Closing Statement and a decision of the Independent Accountants with respect to the disputed items of the Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Proposed Final Closing Statement will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be allocated between Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Independent Accountants that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Independent Accountants) bears to the total amount of such disputed items so submitted. All determinations made by the Independent Accountants will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties, absent fraud, arithmetic mistake, or manifest error.

(d)If the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(b) and/or Section 1.5(c) exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to Seller such excess. If the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Section 1.5(b) and/or Section 1.5(c) is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of such difference.

(e)Any payments due pursuant to this Section 1.5, if any, as finally determined, shall be made by wire transfer or delivery of other immediately available funds to the account designated by the recipient thereof no later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Parties reach an agreement as set forth in Section 1.5(b) or, if applicable, the date on which the Independent Accountants’ determination with respect to all unresolved items and amounts as set forth in Section 1.5(c) is made. Any payments pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(i)Since the date that is three (3) years prior to the date hereof, no Person has gained material unauthorized access, including any such access that requires disclosure to a Governmental Authority under applicable Law, with respect to Personal Information transmitted or processed by or otherwise possessed or controlled by the Acquired Entity, or used, accessed or disclosed by any such Personal Information for any illegal or unauthorized purpose. Since the

date that is three (3) years prior to the date hereof, the Acquired Entity has not received written notice of any claims, and there have been no actions (including any known investigation or written notice), from any Governmental Authority or other Person relating to the Acquired Entity’s collection, storage, transfer, loss, damage or unauthorized access, disclosure, use, modification or other misuse of Personal Information or noncompliance with, or alleging a violation by the Acquired Entity of, Privacy/Cybersecurity Laws, and to the Acquired Entity’s Knowledge, there is no reasonable basis for any such claim or action.

To the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to furnish to each other all information required for any Filing to be made to a Governmental Authority by applicable Law in connection with the Acquisition. Each of Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller and the Acquired Entity, on the other hand, shall give the other reasonable prior notice of any communication with, and any proposed understanding, undertaking or agreement with, any Governmental Authority regarding any such Filing or Consent and shall not independently participate in any meeting, or engage in any substantive conversation, discussion or negotiation, with any Governmental Authority related to any such Filing or Consent, or related to any Claims by such Governmental Authority related to the Acquisition or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby, without giving the other (1) prior written notice of such meeting, conversation, discussion or negotiation and (2) unless prohibited by such Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend or participate therein.

of the conditions in Article VI not being satisfied or that would or would reasonably expected to impair, prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.3Access. Upon reasonable advance notice, the Acquired Entity shall provide Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours throughout the period prior to the Closing, to the Acquired Entity’s properties, books, records and personnel, and during such period, the Acquired Entity shall cause to be furnished promptly to Buyer and its Representatives all information concerning the Acquired Entity’s business in its possession or control, or reasonably accessible or available to it through its Affiliates, as Buyer may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Acquired Entity shall not be required to permit any inspection, or to disclose any information, to the limited extent that it would in the reasonable, good-faith judgment of the Acquired Entity upon advice from counsel (i) result in the improper disclosure of any trade secrets of any Person or violate any confidentiality obligation of the Acquired Entity or (ii) jeopardize protections afforded to Seller or the Acquired Entity under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine; provided that the Acquired Entity shall notify Buyer where such limitations are invoked and work in good faith with Buyer to determine the next best practicable compromise or workaround arrangement. All information obtained by Buyer and its Representatives under this Section 5.3(a) shall be treated as “Confidential Information” (within the meaning of the Confidentiality Agreement) for purposes of the Confidentiality Agreement and shall be used solely for consummating the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the foregoing, (1) any such access shall be (A) conducted under the supervision of the Acquired Entity or its Representative’s personnel, (B) subject to all of the standard protocols and procedures of the Acquired Entity including the requirement that visitors be escorted at all times and any applicable restrictions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, (C) subject to any additional procedures required by any landlord and (D) in such a manner as does not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Acquired Entity, (2) neither Buyer nor any of its Representatives shall contact or engage in any communication with (A) any current or former director, manager, officer or employee of the Acquired Entity or any of their respective Representatives related hereto, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Entity, except, in each case under this clause (A), as expressly permitted by this Section 5.3(a) or (B) any customer, vendor, creditor, investor, regulator or other commercial counterparty of the Acquired Entity, except for contacts with such customers, vendors, creditors, investors, regulators or other counterparties made in the ordinary course of business that are unrelated hereto, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Acquired Entity and (3) prior to the Closing, Buyer shall have no right to perform or cause to be performed any invasive or subsurface investigations of any Leased Real Property, including any sampling or testing of the air, soil, surface water, groundwater, building materials or other environmental media. The provision of information under this Section 5.3(a) shall not expand any remedies available hereunder to Buyer in any manner. In addition, the Acquired Entity shall provide Buyer monthly financial statements for each completed month before the Closing Date as soon as practicable and in any event within fifteen (15) days after month-end.

Section 5.4Employee Matters.

(a)On the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide or cause to be provided to each Continuing Employee (i) a base salary or wage rate that is no less favorable than the base salary or wage rate provided by Seller or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entity) to each

such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than those provided by Seller or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entity) to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and (iii) employee benefits (excluding severance payments and severance benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate (including related to the proportion of employee cost) than those employee benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Buyer shall not, at any time during the ninety (90) days following the Closing, effectuate a “plant closing” or “mass layoff,” as those terms are defined in the WARN Act, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.4(a) shall restrict Buyer from terminating the employment of Continuing Employees from and after the Closing.

(b)Buyer shall provide or shall cause to be provided to each Continuing Employee with the severance payments and benefits that are provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries at the time of such termination of employment.

(c)As of the Closing Date, the Continuing Employees shall cease participation in all Seller Employee Plans (other than any Assumed Plan). As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall assume and honor, or will cause the Acquired Entity to assume and honor, in accordance with their terms (including terms related to amendment and termination), any Seller Employee Plan listed in Section 5.4(b) of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Assumed Plans”) and any Acquired Entity Employee Plan.

(d)For eligibility, benefit accrual (other than for purposes of a defined benefit plan) and vesting purposes under the employee benefit plans of Buyer and its Affiliates that are offered and provide benefits to Continuing Employees after the Closing Date (the “Buyer Plans”), Buyer shall (and shall cause the Acquired Entity to) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Continuing Employee to be credited with his or her years of service or comparable experience with Seller or its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entity and its predecessor to the extent previously credited by Seller or its Affiliates) prior to the Closing Date to the same extent as such employee was entitled prior to the Closing Date to credit for such service under any similar Business Benefit Plan, except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits. For purposes of each Buyer Plan, if any, providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, Buyer shall (or shall cause its Affiliates to) use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Buyer Plan for such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents, and (ii) credit all eligible expenses incurred by such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under the comparable Business Benefit Plans during the portion of the plan year ending on the date of such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding Buyer Plan begins under such Buyer Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance, co-pays and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Buyer.

(e)As of the Closing Date, Seller shall transfer from the medical and dependent care account plans of Seller and its Affiliates under any Seller Employee Plan (each, a “Seller FSA Plan”) to one or more medical and dependent care account plans established or designated by Buyer the account balances of the Continuing Employees, and Buyer shall be

responsible for the obligations of the Seller FSA Plans to provide benefits to the Continuing Employees with respect to such transferred account balances at or after the Closing Date. Each Continuing Employee shall be permitted to continue to have payroll deductions made as most recently elected by him or her under the applicable Seller FSA Plan. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, if the net difference between (i) the aggregate employee contributions under the Seller FSA Plan as of the Closing Date made during the year in which the Closing Date occurs and (ii) the aggregate employee reimbursements under the Seller FSA Plan as of the Closing Date made during the year in which the Closing Date occurs, in each case with respect to a Continuing Employee for the applicable year, (the “Assumed FSA Balance”) is (x) a positive number, then Seller shall transfer to Buyer an amount, in cash, equal to the Assumed FSA Balance, or (y) a negative number, then Buyer shall transfer to Seller an amount, in cash, equal to the positive value of the Assumed FSA Balance.

(f)Effective as of the Closing Date, the Continuing Employees shall no longer actively participate in the Evolent Health 401(k) Plan (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”). Buyer shall designate a tax-qualified defined contribution plan of Buyer (such plan, the “Buyer Savings Plan”) that currently provides for the receipt from the Continuing Employees of “eligible rollover distributions” (as such term is defined in Section 401(a)(31) of the Code.

(g)Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entity) shall file and distribute Forms 1094-C and 1095-C with respect to the Continuing Employees in accordance with the requirements of Sections 6055 and 6056 of the Code and the regulations and related guidance promulgated thereunder for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs. Seller shall provide such information as is reasonably necessary for Buyer and its Affiliates to discharge its obligations under this Section 5.4(g) for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs.

(h)Nothing in this Section 5.4 shall be treated as an amendment of, an undertaking to amend or terminate, or a limitation on the ability of Seller or Buyer or its Affiliates to amend or terminate any employee benefit plan (including any Acquired Entity Employee Plan). No provision hereof shall create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee or any other natural person service provider of the Acquired Entity or any beneficiary or dependents thereof for the compensation, terms and conditions of employment and benefits that may be provided.

Section 5.5Indemnification; Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance.

(a)From and after the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Acquired Entity to fulfill and honor the obligations of the Acquired Entity under any indemnification provision and any exculpation provision in the Organizational Documents of the Acquired Entity as in effect as of the Closing. Buyer shall not permit any such indemnification or exculpation provision to be amended, repealed or otherwise modified during the six (6) year period after the Closing in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of any Pre-Closing Indemnified Person, unless any such amendment, repeal or modification is required by applicable Law.

(b)Buyer acknowledges (on behalf of itself and its Representatives, including, after the Closing, the Acquired Entity) that the Pre-Closing Indemnified Persons may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by current direct or indirect equityholders, members or other Affiliates of Seller or its Representatives

(except for the Acquired Entity) or their respective direct or indirect equityholders (“Indemnitee Affiliates”) separate from the obligations of Buyer and the Acquired Entity hereunder or under their respective Organizational Documents. From and after the Closing, Buyer and the Acquired Entity (each, a “D&O Indemnifying Party”) shall be the indemnitors of first resort (i.e., their obligations to the Pre-Closing Indemnified Persons are primary and any obligation of any Indemnitee Affiliate to advance expenses or to provide indemnification or insurance for the same D&O Expenses or losses, claims, damages, penalties, Taxes, interest, fines, judgments or amounts paid in settlement (collectively, “D&O Costs”) incurred by the Pre-Closing Indemnified Persons are secondary), and the D&O Indemnifying Parties (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Indemnitee Affiliates from any and all claims against the Indemnitee Affiliates for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. For the purposes of this Section 5.5(b), “D&O Expenses” shall mean reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to defend, to be a witness in or participate in any D&O Indemnifiable Claim, but solely to avoid duplication of bases for recovery, shall exclude losses, claims, damages, judgments and amounts paid in settlement (because such items are included in the definition of D&O Costs) and “D&O Indemnifiable Claim” shall mean any claim related to any threatened, pending or completed claim or investigation, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative or otherwise, related to acts or omissions in their official capacities occurring on or prior to the Closing (including for acts or omissions in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby).

(c)If Buyer or any of its respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Entity and is not the continuing or surviving Entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then Buyer or its applicable successor or assign shall cause its applicable successors or assigns to assume all of the obligations thereof in this Section 5.5.

(d)The Pre-Closing Indemnified Persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.5, with full rights of enforcement of this Section 5.5 as if a party hereto.

(e)For purposes hereof, each Person who is or was an officer or director of the Acquired Entity at or any time prior to the Closing shall be deemed to be a “Pre-Closing Indemnified Person.”

Section 5.6Termination of Affiliate Contracts. Except for any Affiliate Contract listed in Section 5.6 of the Disclosure Schedule, at or prior to the Closing, Seller and the Acquired Entity shall cause all Affiliate Contracts to be terminated and provide reasonably satisfactory evidence of such termination to Buyer.

Section 5.7Retention and Access to Records. After the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Acquired Entity to provide Seller and its Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to the books and records of the Acquired Entity that relate to periods or occurrences prior to the Closing Date for any reasonable and bona fide financial reporting, Tax, accounting purpose, or compliance with Law. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Acquired Entity to, preserve, keep and maintain such books and

records for a period of seven (7) years after the Closing Date. The rights granted under this Section 5.7 shall expire and be of no further force and effect upon the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may dispose of books and records during such seven (7) year period if the same are first offered in writing to Seller and not accepted by Seller within thirty (30) days of such offer.

Section 5.8Exclusivity. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms, neither Seller nor the Acquired Entity shall directly or indirectly take, and shall instruct and cause its Affiliates (including without limitation the Acquired Entity’s ultimate parent Entity) and their respective representatives, consultants, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants or other agents not to take, any action to solicit, initiate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, or provide any information to or enter into any agreement with any Person (other than Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective representatives) concerning any Acquisition Proposal and to cease any and all existing communications or discussions with any Person in connection with the foregoing. Seller and the Acquired Entity shall immediately notify Buyer in writing of any communication, offer, inquiry or proposal from any Person regarding an Acquisition Proposal.

Section 5.9Notification of Certain Matters. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, each of Seller and the Acquired Entity, on one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall give the other prompt written notice of: (a) any event, change, or occurrence that (i) causes, or would reasonably be expected to cause, any representation or warranty of such Party set forth in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect or (ii) causes, or would reasonably be expected to cause, such Party to fail to perform or comply with in any material respect any covenant or agreement of such Party in this Agreement; and (b) any proceeding or Claim commenced or, to Seller’s knowledge, the Acquired Entity’s Knowledge, or Buyer’s knowledge, as applicable, threatened against or otherwise affecting such Party with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No such notification will affect any of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, rights, or remedies of the Parties contained in this Agreement.

Section 5.10Transition Services Agreement. With respect to the Transition Services Agreement, the definitive form of which will be agreed before Closing, each Party shall (including causing any relevant Affiliate to) promptly hereafter proceed in good faith, and using all commercially reasonable efforts (including making available at all scheduled and other necessary times dedicated senior executive personnel with relevant expertise and legal counsel), to implement the final form of such Contract with reference to the TSA Terms.

(ii)the breach of any Sell-Side Fundamental Representation (or the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(d) by or on behalf of Seller at or prior to the Closing with respect thereto);

(iii)any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Acquired Entity prior to the Closing or Seller prior to or after the Closing;

(iv)all Taxes (or the non-payment thereof) imposed on or payable by the Acquired Entity for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or as a result of the Acquired Entity being a member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group on or prior to the Closing Date; and

(v)any matter set forth on Schedule 8.2(a)(v).

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnification provided for in Section 8.2(a) shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i)Seller shall not be required to indemnify Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect to any claim for indemnification arising out of or relating to matters described in Section 8.2(a)(i) unless and until the aggregate amount of all such claims for such matters exceeds one half of one percent (0.50%) of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible”), in which event Buyer Indemnified Parties will be entitled to recover all Losses arising out of or relating to such matters in excess of the Deductible;

(ii) Seller’s aggregate Liability for Losses arising out of or resulting from claims under Section 8.2(a)(i) shall in no event exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Purchase Price;

(iii) Except in the case of fraud, Seller’s aggregate Liability for Losses arising out of or resulting from claims under this Agreement shall in no event exceed the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Section 8.2(b) shall not apply in the case of fraud; and

(iv) Seller shall have no obligation to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party from and against any Taxes of any Person (A) for any taxable period or portion of a taxable period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or any other Losses directly related to such Taxes) or (B) that are attributable to any transaction occurring after the Closing Date. Additionally, the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.12 may only be relied upon for purposes of Tax Liabilities for Pre-Closing Tax Periods, and are not a guarantee of any Tax assets or the efficacy of any Tax positions taken or to be taken with respect to any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending after the Closing.

Section 8.3Indemnification by Buyer.

(a)Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties” and, each of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties, an “Indemnified Party”) against any Losses actually incurred arising out of:

(i)the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made in Article IV (or the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.3(c) by or on behalf of Buyer at or prior to the Closing with respect thereto) that is not a Buyer Fundamental Representation;

(ii)the breach or inaccuracy of any Buyer Fundamental Representation (or the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.3(c) by or on behalf of Buyer at or prior to the Closing with respect thereto); and

(iii)any breach of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement to be performed or complied with by the Acquired Entity after the Closing or Buyer prior to or after the Closing.

(b)Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, except in the case of fraud, Buyer’s aggregate Liability for Losses arising out of or resulting from claims under this Agreement shall in no event exceed the Purchase Price.

Section 8.4Indemnification Principles.

(a)The amount of any and all indemnification payments in respect of Losses under this Agreement shall be determined net of (i) any monies from a third party actually received by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses, and (ii) any proceeds actually received by an Indemnified Party under any insurance policies or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement), in each case, net of costs or expenses incurred in connection with securing or obtaining such proceeds (including premium costs).

(b)To avoid double counting, the Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses relating to any matter arising under one provision of this Agreement to the extent that such Indemnified Party had already recovered Losses with respect to such matter pursuant to any other provisions of this Agreement.

(c)No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification with respect to any Losses to the extent such Losses are accrued or otherwise reflected in the calculation of the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1.5.

(d)The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 8.2 shall be calculated net of (i) any tax benefits realized by the Party being indemnified on account of such Loss with respect to the year in which the Loss occurs and the following year, as

determined on a “with and without” basis, and (ii) any insurance proceeds to the extent actually received by Buyer with respect to the Loss. To the extent that any Buyer Indemnified Party receives any amount under insurance coverage with respect to a Loss for which a Buyer Indemnified Party has previously obtained payment in indemnification under this Article VIII, Buyer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of such insurance proceeds, pay and reimburse Seller, for any such duplicative prior indemnification payment up to the amount of the insurance proceeds, but less (i) the cost and expense of pursuing such insurance recovery, (ii) the deductible associated therewith and (iii) the amount of all retro-premium obligations and reasonably anticipated premium increases resulting from such recovery. To the extent that any Buyer Indemnified Party receives any amounts from third parties with respect to a Loss for which a Buyer Indemnified Party has previously obtained payment in indemnification under this Article VIII, Buyer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of such amounts, pay and reimburse Seller, for any such duplicative prior indemnification payment up to the amount of the amounts received from such third party, but less the cost and expense of pursuing such recovery. The foregoing requirements with respect to insurance or third-party payments shall not create any obligation on Buyer Indemnified Parties to pursue such potential payment sources, and shall be subject to those insurance or third-party payment not themselves being subject to reduction or reimbursement in connection with any indemnification payment receipts by a Buyer Indemnified Party under this Article VIII.

(e)The representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement, and the rights and remedies of the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Seller Indemnified Parties with respect thereto, will not be affected by any investigation, inquiry, or examination made by or on behalf of either Party, or the knowledge of either Party or their respective Representatives, regardless of whether such investigation, inquiry, or examination was conducted, or such knowledge was obtained, prior to, at, or after the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the Closing and regardless of whether such knowledge was obtained from the other Party, any of its representatives, or any other Person.

Section 8.5Manner of Payment. Any indemnification payment pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 shall be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the applicable Indemnified Party within ten (10) Business Days after the final determination and resolution thereof.

Section 8.6Procedure.

(a)Direct Claims. If either Indemnified Party shall have a claim for indemnification hereunder for any claim other than with respect to a claim asserted by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall, as promptly as is practicable, give written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the nature of the claim. Such written notice shall describe the claim in reasonable detail, including, to the extent practicable, copies of any material written evidence thereof and indicate the estimated amount of such claim to the extent feasible. The failure to make timely delivery of such written notice by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any Liability under this Article VIII with respect to such matter, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by failure to give such notice.

(b)Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(i)Any Indemnified Party making a claim for indemnification under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 (other than in connection with a Tax Claim, the administration of which shall be governed exclusively by Section 10.7(b)) shall notify the Indemnifying Party of the claim in writing promptly, but in no event more than 10 days, after receiving notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation, demand or other Claim against the Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the claim, the amount or estimated amount of damages sought thereunder (if known and quantifiable, which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third-Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto, the basis thereof and the provisions of this Agreement upon which such claim for indemnification is made and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that such failure has a materially prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. Following the receipt of the Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party may notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party will not have the right to assume control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim, and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if (A) such Third-Party Claim seeks non-monetary relief (in whole or in part) or relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding or Claim, (B) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to such Third-Party Claim would be detrimental to or injure the reputation or future business prospects of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (C) the named parties in any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (or their respective Affiliates) and the representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing or conflicts of interests between them, (D) the Indemnifying Party fails to actively and diligently conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim, or (E) Seller is the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party reasonably believes the defense of such Third Party Claim could have a material adverse effect on the Indemnified Party’s or its Affiliates’ relationship with any of its material customers, suppliers, or other business relationships.

(ii)In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the power to direct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim giving rise to an Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification at such Indemnifying Party’s expense. Once the Indemnifying Party has duly assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party and shall not be recoverable from such

Indemnifying Party under this Section 8.6 unless (A) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing or (B) the Indemnified Party has been advised by legal counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to settle such claims; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) before settling, compromising, offering to settle or compromise, or ceasing to defend such claim if, pursuant to or as a result of such settlement, compromise or cessation, (A) an Order would be imposed that would materially restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (B) a violation of Law by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates would be found or admitted, (C) any monetary liability would be imposed on the Indemnified Party that would not be paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party, or (D) any material non-monetary condition or obligation would be imposed on any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.

(iii)The Indemnified Party may not settle any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if the Indemnified Party is seeking or will seek indemnification hereunder with respect to such matter.

(iv)The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall and shall cause their Affiliates to reasonably cooperate in connection with the defense of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing reasonable access to each other’s relevant business records, other documents and Representatives, if there is no conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party in the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall keep each other reasonably informed with respect to the status of such Third-Party Claim.

Section 8.7Exclusive Remedy. Except with respect to claims alleging fraud and as provided under the provisions hereof providing for equitable remedies, the Parties agree that, from and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties to this Agreement and any other Indemnified Person, respectively, for any Losses or damages (including any Losses from claims for breach of contract or warranty) arising out of or based upon the matters set forth in this Agreement are the indemnification and/or reimbursement obligations of the Parties set forth in this Article VIII.

ARTICLE IX

OTHER COVENANTS, AGREEMENTS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Section 9.1No Other Representations and Warranties; Non-reliance.

(a)Except for the representations and warranties expressly in Article IV, Seller and the Acquired Entity acknowledge and agree that none of Buyer or any of its Representatives or direct or indirect equity holders make, or have made, any other express or implied representation or warranty whatsoever (whether at law (including at common law or by statute) or in equity). Except for Seller’s representations and warranties expressly in Article II

and the Acquired Entity’ representations and warranties expressly in Article III (collectively, the “Sell-Side Representations”), Seller and the Acquired Entity disclaim any other express or implied representation or warranty whatsoever (whether at law (including at common law or by statute) or in equity), including related to any opinion, projection, forecast, statement (including any forward-looking statement), budget, estimate, advice or other similar information (including information related to the future revenues, earnings, results or operations (or any component thereof)), cash flows, financial condition (or any component thereof) or the future business and operations of the Acquired Entity or any of its businesses, assets, employees, Permits, liabilities, operations, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise), as well as any other business plan and cost-related plan information of or related to the foregoing (collectively, “Projections”), in each case, made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing), or to be made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing), to Buyer or any of its Representatives, in each case, whether made by Seller, the Acquired Entity or any of their respective Representatives or direct or indirect equity holders or any other Person. Other than as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, any other document contemplated by this Agreement, or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, neither Seller, Buyer nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall have or be subject to any liability or indemnification obligation to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, or any other Person, resulting from the distribution to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, or Buyer’s or Seller’s use of, as the case may be, any information not set forth in or incorporated by reference into this Agreement or any Schedule, Annex or Exhibit hereto, including any information, document or material made available in certain “data rooms” (including the Data Room), management presentations or in any other form in expectation or contemplation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)Except for the Sell-Side Representations, Buyer specifically acknowledges and agrees that none of Seller, the Acquired Entity or any of their respective Representatives or direct or indirect equity holders or any other Person make, or have made, any other express or implied representation or warranty whatsoever (whether at law (including at common law or by statute) or in equity), including related to the Acquired Entity or its businesses, assets, employees, Permits, liabilities, operations, prospects, condition (financial or otherwise) or any Projection, and Buyer has not relied on any such representation or warranty in entering into this Agreement (other than the Sell-Side Representations).

Section 9.2Retention of Counsel. In any dispute or proceeding arising solely under or in connection with this Agreement after the Closing, (a) Seller shall have the right, at its election, to retain Bass, Xxxxx & Xxxx PLC to represent it in such matter, even if such representation shall be adverse to Buyer or the Acquired Entity, (b) Buyer and the Acquired Entity, for themselves and for their respective Representatives, successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably consent to any such representation in any such matter and (c) Buyer and the Acquired Entity, for themselves and for their respective Representatives, successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably waive any actual or potential conflict arising from any such representation in the event of (i) any adversity between the interests of Seller or its direct or indirect equity holders, on the one hand, and Buyer or the Acquired Entity, on the other hand, in any such matter or (ii) any Protected Communication.

Section 9.3Protected Communications. The Parties agree that, effective as of the Closing, without the need for any further action, (a) all right, title and interest of the Acquired

Entity in and to all Protected Communications shall thereupon transfer to and be vested solely in Seller, and (b) any and all protections from disclosure, including attorney–client privileges and work product protections, associated with or arising from any Protected Communications that would have been exercisable by the Acquired Entity prior to Closing shall thereupon be vested exclusively in Seller and shall be exercised or waived solely as directed by Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a dispute arises between Buyer, or the Acquired Entity, on the one hand, and any other Person (except for Seller or any of its Representatives), on the other hand, Buyer or the Acquired Entity may exercise any and all protections from disclosure, including attorney–client privileges and work product protections associated with or arising from any Protected Communications, including to prevent Seller and its Representatives from disclosing confidential communications to such other Person; provided that none of Buyer, the Acquired Entity, or any Person acting on any of their behalf, shall, without the prior written consent of Seller, waive or attempt to waive, or take any action that could result in a waiver of, any such protection against disclosure, including the attorney-client privileges or work product protection of, or provide to such Person or its Representatives, any Protected Communication.

Section 9.4No Waiver of Privilege, Protection From Disclosure or Use. The Parties understand and agree that nothing herein, including Section 9.2 and Section 9.3, shall be deemed to be a waiver of any applicable attorney–client privilege or other protection from disclosure or use related to any Protected Communication. Each Party understands and agrees that it has undertaken reasonable efforts to prevent the disclosure of Protected Communications. Notwithstanding those efforts, the Parties understand and agree that the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby could result in the inadvertent disclosure of Protected Communications. The Parties further understand and agree that any disclosure of any Protected Communications shall not waive or otherwise prejudice any claim of confidentiality, privilege, or protection from disclosure.

Section 9.5Guaranty.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, by its execution and delivery of this Agreement, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees (the “Guaranty”) to and for the benefit of Buyer and any Buyer Indemnified Parties (collectively, the “Buyer Guaranteed Parties”) the full, complete and timely payment and performance by Seller of each obligation of Seller under this Agreement, including the punctual and complete payment and performance, if, as and when due, by Seller of all of Seller’s payment obligations to Buyer under this Agreement, including Seller’s indemnification obligations set forth in ARTICLE VIII of this Agreement, and the timely satisfaction and performance of all of Seller’s covenants, agreements and obligations contained in this Agreement (all Seller obligations under this Agreement, whether now or hereafter existing, being referred to collectively as the “Seller Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b)The Guaranty shall be enforceable against Guarantor regardless of whether such action is brought against Seller or any other Person or whether Seller or any other Person is joined in any such action; provided, however, that following the Closing, before bringing any claim against Guarantor for payment or performance of any of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations, each Buyer Guaranteed Party shall use reasonable best efforts to seek performance or payment by Seller for a period of no less than ninety (90) days from the date on which such

Buyer Guaranteed Party initially notifies Seller of such claim or the facts forming the basis of such claim, except where such Buyer Guaranteed Party reasonably anticipates that it could be materially prejudiced by such delay in bringing a claim against Guarantor.

(c)The Guaranty constitutes a guarantee of payment and performance, and not merely of collection, whether or not recovery may be, or hereafter may become, barred by any statute of limitation or otherwise, and is not conditional or contingent upon any event, contingency or circumstance except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Seller Guaranteed Obligations will not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Seller or by any defense which Seller may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding. The Buyer Guaranteed Parties shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Seller Guaranteed Obligations in the event that Seller becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding, and the failure of any Purchaser Guaranteed Party to so file shall not affect the Seller Guaranteed Obligations hereunder. In the event that any performance or payment to a Buyer Guaranteed Party in respect of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded, annulled, set aside, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or must otherwise be returned (as applicable) for any reason whatsoever, Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such Seller Guaranteed Obligations as if such performance or payment had not been made. Guarantor hereby expressly, irrevocably and unconditionally waives any defenses which would otherwise operate to impair or diminish Guarantor’s liability under or in connection with the Guaranty, including arising by reason of promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this guarantee and of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations, presentment, demand for payment or performance, notice of non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Seller, and all suretyship defenses generally.

(d)Notwithstanding any payment made by Guarantor hereunder, Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Buyer Guaranteed Party against Seller or any right of offset held by any Buyer Guaranteed Party for the payment of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from Seller in respect of payments made by Guarantor hereunder, in each case until all of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations are satisfied in full, and in the case of payment obligations, paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by Guarantor in trust for the Buyer Guaranteed Parties, segregated from other funds of Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by Guarantor, be turned over to Buyer to be applied against the Seller Guaranteed Obligations.

(e)Guarantor represents and warrants as of the date of this Agreement and as of Closing that (i) Guarantor has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform the obligations under and in connection with the Guaranty, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Guarantor has been duly authorized by all

necessary action on the part of Guarantor, (ii) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally or to general principles of equity; (iii) the execution, delivery and performance of the Guaranty by Guarantor does not contravene any provision of Guarantor’s Organizational Documents or any Law or Contract binding on Guarantor or any of its assets; and (iv) Guarantor has the financial capacity to pay and perform all of its obligations under the Guaranty, and all funds necessary for Guarantor to fulfill the Seller Guaranteed Obligations shall be available to Guarantor.

(f)Article X shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Guarantor in connection with the Guaranty.

ARTICLE X

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 10.1Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or changed only by a written instrument signed by Buyer and Seller.

Section 10.2Waiver. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy hereunder, and no delay on the part of any Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy hereunder, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy, and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. No Party shall be deemed to have waived any Claim arising out hereof, or any power, right, privilege or remedy hereunder, unless the waiver of such Claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of Buyer (if Buyer or, after the Closing, the Acquired Entity is the waiving Party) or Seller (if Seller or, prior to the Closing, the Acquired Entity is the waiving Party), and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

Section 10.3Entire Agreement; Counterparts. This Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement are the entire agreement, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among or between any of the Parties related to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be one (1) and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart hereof by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of an original counterpart hereof.

Section 10.4Applicable Law; Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. This Agreement, and all Claims and causes of action (whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, or whether at law (including at common law or by statute) or in equity) that may be based on, arise out of or relate hereto or the negotiation, execution, performance or subject matter hereof, shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed solely therein, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. Each Party (a) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware or, to the extent

such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, (b) agrees that all Claims and causes of action shall be heard and determined exclusively in the courts identified in clause (a) of this Section 10.4 or any court that has appellate jurisdiction over those courts, (c) waives any objection to laying venue in any such Claim or cause of action in such courts, (d) waives any objection that any such court is an inconvenient forum or does not have jurisdiction over any Party and (e) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such Claim or cause of action shall be effective if such process is given as a notice under Section 10.9. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION that may be based on, arise out of or relate HERETO or the negotiation, execution, performance or subject matter hereof.

Section 10.5Remedies; Specific Performance.

(a)Except as otherwise provided herein, prior to the Closing, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

(b)The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions hereof were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches hereof and to enforce specifically the performance of terms and provisions hereof, including the right of a Party to cause each other Party to consummate the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated hereby, in any court referred to in Section 10.4, without proof of actual damages (and each Party waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The Parties further agree not to assert (i) that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason or (ii) that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.

(c)Without in any way limiting Seller’s or the Acquired Entity’s respective rights under Section 10.5(b), if an award of damages is sought against Buyer for any breach or threatened breach hereof by Buyer occurring prior to the Closing, such damages shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs but shall also include the benefit of the bargain lost by Seller and the Acquired Entity (including “lost premium”), taking into consideration relevant matters, including the total amount payable to Seller hereunder, the time value of money (which, in each case, shall be deemed in such event to be damages of Seller and the Acquired Entity and shall be recoverable thereby), the opportunities forgone by Seller and the Acquired Entity while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 10.6Payment of Expenses; Transfer Taxes. Except as provided herein, whether or not the Closing occurs, each Party shall pay its own expenses incident to preparing for, entering into and carrying out this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Any Transfer Taxes will be borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer.

Further, (a) Buyer shall be responsible for preparing all Transfer Tax Returns and related forms or filings, (b) Buyer shall provide each such Transfer Tax Return or form or filing to Seller for its review and Consent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date thereof, (c) Seller shall not have any obligation to execute any such form or filing unless Buyer revises such form or filing for any reasonable comments provided by Seller in respect thereof, and (d) Seller shall remit its allocable portion of any Transfer Taxes shown on a Transfer Tax Return within thirty (30) Business Days following the filing of any such return. Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in preparing and filing all such filings, Transfer Tax Returns, reports and forms as necessary or appropriate to comply with the provisions of all applicable Law in connection with the payment of such Transfer Taxes, and the parties shall cooperate in good faith to minimize the amount of any such Transfer Taxes payable in connection therewith.

Section 10.7Tax Matters.

(a)Preparation of Tax Returns; Payment of Taxes.

(i)Seller shall timely prepare and file (or cause to be timely prepared and filed) (i) all Tax Returns that are required to be filed by or with respect to the Acquired Entity on an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary basis with Seller or with at least one Affiliate of Seller for Tax years or periods beginning on or before the Closing Date, and (ii) all other Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the Acquired Entity that are due (taking into account requests for extensions to file such returns) on or before the Closing Date. In each case, Seller shall timely remit (or cause to be timely remitted) any Taxes shown due on such Tax Returns. As it relates to the Acquired Entity, Seller shall prepare such Tax Returns in accordance with past practices of the Acquired Entity.

(ii)Except as otherwise described in this Section 10.7(a), Buyer shall timely prepare and file (or cause to be timely prepared and filed) all Tax Returns of the Acquired Entity for all taxable periods that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. If such Tax Returns report matters for which indemnification may be claimed from Seller pursuant to Section 8.2, then: (A) Buyer shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) such Tax Returns in accordance with the past practices of the Acquired Entity, (B) completed drafts of such Tax Returns shall be submitted to Seller not later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (or, if such due date is within forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date, as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date), (C) Seller shall have the right to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to the filing thereof, and (D) to the extent relating to matters for which indemnification may be claimed from Seller pursuant to Section 8.2, Buyer shall make any changes to such Tax Returns reasonably requested by Seller. Without limiting the obligations of Seller under Section 8.2, Buyer shall remit (or cause to be remitted) any Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns filed by it pursuant to this Section 10.7(a).

(iii)The parties hereto shall treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable period of the Acquired Entity for all Tax purposes and Buyer shall cause the Acquired Entity to join Buyer’s “consolidated group” effective on the day after the Closing Date pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b). The Parties agree that neither Party will make a ratable allocation election under Treasury Regulation

Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) or any other similar provision of Law. In accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76 and any analogous provision of Law, any Tax related to an extraordinary transaction not contemplated by this Agreement that occurs on the Closing Date or after the Closing shall be allocated to the taxable period beginning after the Closing Date. In addition, the principles of the preceding sentence shall apply in the absence of an analogous provision of Law and in the case of Straddle Periods.

(b)Tax Claims.

(i)If any Taxing Authority asserts a Tax Claim, then the Party first receiving notice of such Tax Claim shall provide written notice thereof to the other Party within forty-five (45) days; provided, however, that the failure of such Party to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the other Party of any of its obligations under Article VIII, except to the extent that the other Party is materially and actually prejudiced by such failure. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax Claim and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the Taxing Authority.

(ii)Seller shall have the exclusive right to, at its expense, control, (or assume control of) any Tax Claim or other Tax proceeding, in each case to the extent that such Tax Returns, Tax Claims or other Tax proceedings involve Taxes or information related thereto with respect to the Acquired Entity for any Pre-Closing Tax Period. Except with respect to any Tax paid or Tax Return filed on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis with Seller or any of its Affiliates, Seller shall not settle any Tax Claim or other Tax proceeding it controls pursuant to this Section 10.7(b)(ii) without the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if such settlement would adversely affect Buyer or any of its Affiliates for taxable periods (or the portion of Straddle Periods) beginning after the Closing Date. Upon the request of Seller, Buyer shall execute any powers of attorney or similar documents that may be required to effectuate the intent of this Section 10.7(b)(ii). Seller may elect in writing not to control any Tax Claim that Seller otherwise has the right to control pursuant to this Section 10.7(b)(ii). If Seller makes such election with respect to a Tax Claim, Buyer shall have the right and obligation to conduct, at its own expense, such Tax Claim; provided, that Buyer shall not settle, or permit to be settled, any such Tax Claim for which Seller would have an indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 8.2 without the consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c)Tax Cooperation. Buyer, the Acquired Entity and Seller shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns and the defense of any Tax Claims. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer, the Acquired Entity and Seller agree to (i) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Acquired Entity relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer or Seller, any extensions thereof) of the

respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority, and (ii) give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other party so requests, Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.

(d)Allocation of Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever it is necessary to determine the portion of any Taxes of the Acquired Entity for any Straddle Period, the determination shall be made as follows: (i) the amount of any real property, personal property or similar ad valorem Taxes which are imposed on a periodic basis shall be determined ratably on a per diem basis, and (ii) the amount of any other Taxes that are allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books of the Acquired Entity as of the Closing Date.

(e)Tax Covenants.

(i)Buyer shall not take any action not expressly contemplated by this Agreement on the Closing Date that is outside the ordinary course of business, and Buyer shall not cause or permit the Acquired Entity to take any such action on the Closing Date, in each case, if such action could have the effect of increasing the Tax Liability of the Acquired Entity or Seller in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period or increasing the liability of Seller under this Agreement;

(ii)After the Closing Date, Buyer shall not, and shall not allow the Acquired Entity to, (i) make or change any material Tax election, (ii) amend any Tax Return, (iii) take any Tax position on any Tax Return, (iv) compromise or settle any Tax Liability or (v) voluntarily approach any Taxing Authority with respect to such Taxes in any jurisdiction, without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) for any Pre-Closing Tax Period. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be free to file any income Tax Return for any Tax Period (other than a Pre-Closing Tax Period) on any basis that Buyer deems, in its sole discretion, is consistent with applicable Law and any such Tax Return may include, without limitation, accounting method changes, voluntary disclosures and any similar forms or statements that Buyer deems necessary.

(f)Tax Refunds. Except to the extent included as an asset in the Closing Balance Sheet as finally determined, any Tax refund received by Buyer that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Acquired Entity (any such refund, a “Pre-Closing Tax Refund”) shall be for the account of Seller. Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, any such Tax refund (and interest received from the governmental entity with respect to such refund), net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred by Buyer or the Acquired Entity to Seller within forty-five (45) days after receipt thereof. Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in obtaining such refunds, it being understood that (i) any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds will be claimed in cash rather than as a credit against future Tax liabilities, (ii) Buyer and the Acquired Entity shall cooperate with Seller and take all actions reasonably requested (and all necessary actions incidental to any such request) by Seller, to timely claim any such Pre-Closing Tax Refunds, (iii) the Acquired Entity shall elect to carry back applicable items of loss, deduction or credit from any Pre-Closing Tax Period to prior taxable years to the fullest extent permitted by Law, and (iv) Buyer and the

Acquired Company shall cooperate with Seller in utilizing any available short-form or accelerated procedures (including filing IRS Form 1139 and any corresponding form for applicable state, local and foreign Tax purposes) and in filing any amended Tax Returns to claim any potential Pre-Closing Tax Refunds.

(g)Section 338(h)(10) Election. Following the Closing, to the extent requested by Buyer, Seller and Buyer shall jointly make timely and irrevocable elections under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (the “Section 338 Election”) (and any corresponding election under state and local Tax law) with respect to the Acquired Entity, and shall consummate any and all other actions necessary to such effect (including filing all forms, statements and documents that are required to be submitted to any federal, state or local Tax authority to effectuate the Section 338 Election, including IRS Form 8023, IRS Form 8883 and any similar forms, statements or documents required under applicable state or local Law (the “Section 338 Forms”)). Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller an allocation of the Purchase Price and the liabilities of the Acquired Entity among the assets of the Acquired Entity as required pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Allocation”). The Allocation shall be prepared in a manner consistent with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. If Seller objects to any item on the Allocation within thirty (30) days after its receipt thereof by Buyer, the Parties shall confer and seek to reach agreement, and if they cannot agree, the matter shall be referred to the Independent Accountant. The Allocation, as prepared by Buyer if Seller does not object, as adjusted pursuant to an agreement between the Parties or as determined pursuant to the decision of the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the Parties (the “Final Allocation”). Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in the preparation of the Section 338 Forms in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation and shall timely file such Section 338 Form with the applicable Taxing Authorities. Seller and Buyer agree that neither of them shall revoke the Section 338 Election following the filing of the Section 338 Forms without the prior written consent of Seller or Buyer, as the case may be. Buyer and Seller will prepare and file all Tax Returns to be filed with any Taxing Authority in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation and will take no position inconsistent with the Final Allocation on any Tax Return or in any proceeding before any Taxing Authority.
