Newco. If the consideration payable to PHM or its Affiliates in a CalCardio Sale consists of non-cash consideration, the proceeds of the CalCardio Sale will be determined to be equal to the fair market value of the consideration received as
mutually agreed by the Parties. In calculating the proceeds of a CalCardio Sale, PHM may discount all taxes paid in connection with the CalCardio Sale (net of any tax benefits received in connection with the CalCardio Sale) and all reasonable
and customary professional and other transaction costs associated with any CalCardio Sale. Contemporaneously with the completion of a CalCardio Sale, PHM will provide a notice to Newco made in accordance with Section 2.23 setting forth PHM’s
calculation of the amount payable to Newco as a result of the CalCardio Sale and provide for the direct payment of such amount by the purchaser in the CalCardio Sale to an account designated by Newco. For greater certainty, in the event that

reimbursement claim hereunder in excess of the Basket Amount, unless Newco consents in writing to the terms thereof, such consent to not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (ii) Newco shall have the right, if it elects to do so, to be

(d) |
if a Party delivers a Notice of Objection, the Parties shall work expeditiously and in good faith in an attempt to resolve such objections within 10 Business Days

to assist them in making a determination as to fair market value. The determination of such firm shall be final and binding upon the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal, absent manifest error. The Parties acknowledge and
agree that such firm are deemed to be acting as experts for the purpose of determining the merits of the Notice of Objection and not as arbitrators;
|
19

if a Party does not deliver a Notice of Objection within the Dispute Period, it is deemed to have accepted and approved the Payment Notice, effective the next Business
Day following the end of the Dispute Period;
|
(f) |
upon a final determination of an amount owing pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 2.21 or 2.22, the Party obligated to make payment shall be required to make payment

|
(g) |
PHM and Newco shall each bear their own fees and expenses, including the fees and expenses of their respective advisors, in preparing or reviewing, as the case may be,

contemplated by Section 2.23(d), the costs and expenses of such firm shall be borne equally by PHM and Newco. However, PHM and Newco shall each bear their own costs in presenting their respective cases to such firm.

deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use

|
Third Party Claims
|
(a) |
Promptly following the receipt of notice of a Third Party Claim which may result in an indemnification claim under Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, the Indemnified Party
receiving the notice of the Third Party Claim shall notify the Indemnifying Party of its existence setting forth with reasonable specificity the facts and circumstances of which such party has received notice and specifying the basis
hereunder upon which the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification is asserted. No delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party initially receiving the notice of the Third Party Claim in notifying any other party shall
relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) such Indemnifying Party thereby is materially prejudiced. The Indemnified Party shall tender the defense of a Third Party Claim to
the Indemnifying Party.
|
(b) |
Except as herein provided, the Indemnified Party shall not, and the Indemnifying Party shall, have the right to contest, defend or litigate such Third Party Claim, with
counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third
Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Third Party Claim involves only monetary Damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief that, in the good faith
judgment of the Indemnified Party, is likely to establish a precedential custom of practice materially adverse to the continuing business interests of the Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing that,
subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to reserve its rights to contest the obligation to provide indemnification hereunder, it shall indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Damages the Indemnified Party may suffer
resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party Claim, (iv) if requested, the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party
that the Indemnifying Party shall have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (v) the Third Party Claim for indemnification does not relate to or arise in
connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (vi) the Indemnified Party has not been advised in writing by counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party that an actual or
potential conflict of interest exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and it would be unethical for the Indemnifying Party to defend the Indemnified Party, and (vii) the Indemnifying Party conducts the
defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently. So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with clauses (i) through (vii) immediately above, the Indemnified Party
shall have the right to be represented by counsel at its own expense in any such contest, defense, litigation or settlement conducted by the Indemnifying Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party has not lost its right to contest,
defend, litigate and settle as herein provided (which shall be deemed to happen if any of clauses (i) through (vii) are no longer satisfied), the Indemnifying Party shall have the exclusive right to contest, defend and litigate the
Third Party Claim and shall have the exclusive right, in its discretion exercised in reasonable, good faith, and upon the advice of counsel, to settle any such matter, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time
and upon such terms as it deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least three (3) Business Days prior to any such settlement, written notice of its intention to settle shall be given to the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying

settle such a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, without prejudice to its right of indemnification hereunder, in its discretion exercised in reasonable good faith and upon the advice of counsel, to contest,
defend and litigate such Third Party Claim, and may settle such Third Party Claim, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as the Indemnified Party deems fair and reasonable, provided that
at least three (3) Business Days prior to any such settlement, written notice of its intention to settle is given to the Indemnifying Party. If, pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party so contests, defends,
litigates or settles a Third Party Claim for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, (i) the Indemnified Party shall be promptly and periodically reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party for the costs and reasonable attorneys’
fees and other expenses of contesting, defending, litigating and settling the Third Party Claim which are incurred from time to time, promptly following the presentation to the Indemnifying Party of itemized bills for such reasonable
attorneys’ fees and other expenses, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall remain responsible for any Damages the Indemnified Party may suffer resulting from, arising out of, relating to, in the nature of, or caused by the Third Party
Claim.

deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the New Common Shares and Newco Shares that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof. When authorizing such delivery of New Common Shares and

provisions of Sections 4.1 or 4.2 hereof. Subject to applicable law and to Section 4.6 hereof, at the time of such compliance, there will, in addition to the delivery of New Common Shares and Newco Shares to which such holder is thereby entitled,
be delivered to such holder, without interest, the amount of all dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such New Common Shares or Newco Shares.
4.4

Withholding Rights
|
PHM, Newco and the Depositary will be entitled to deduct and withhold from all dividends, distributions or other amounts otherwise payable to any Former
PHM Shareholder such amounts as PHM, Newco or the Depositary is required or permitted to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under the Tax Act, the Code or any provision of any applicable federal, provincial, state, local or foreign
tax law or treaty. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes hereof as having been paid to the Former PHM Shareholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made, provided,
however, that such withheld amounts are actually remitted to the appropriate taxing authority. To the extent that any shares or other non-cash consideration is required to be deducted or withheld from any payment to a Former PHM Shareholder, any
of PHM, Newco or the Depositary is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of shares or other consideration as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to enable PHM, Newco or the Depositary to comply with all deduction or withholding
requirements applicable to it, and PHM, Newco or the Depositary will notify the holder thereof and remit to the holder thereof any unapplied balance of the net proceeds of such sale.
