PURCHASE AND SALE

SECTION 2.01 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Sellers shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchasers, and Purchasers shall purchase, acquire and accept from Sellers, the Equity Interests for the consideration specified in Section 2.02, free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Encumbrances resulting from securities Laws.

SECTION 2.02 Preliminary Purchase Price.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date, in consideration for the sale of the Equity Interests (collectively, the “Sale”), Purchasers shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account of the Sellers, for further payment to the other Sellers in accordance with the allocation set forth in

Section 5.18(h) of the Disclosure Letter, the Preliminary Purchase Price, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.02(e).

(b) Sellers’ Estimates. Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Sellers shall deliver to Purchasers a good-faith estimate, calculated in accordance with Exhibit A, which shall set forth (i) the estimated amount of aggregate Cash and Cash Equivalents as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Cash”), (ii) the estimated amount of aggregate Indebtedness of the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Indebtedness”), (iii) the estimated amount of Other Adjustments as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Estimated Other Adjustments”) and (iv) the estimated Net Working Capital as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”).

(c) Closing Net Working Capital. As promptly as practicable, but in any case no later than seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date, Purchasers shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Sellers a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Purchasers’ calculation, calculated in accordance with Exhibit A hereto, of (i) the aggregate Cash and Cash Equivalents as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Cash”), (ii) the amount of aggregate Indebtedness of the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (“Closing Indebtedness”), (iii) as of immediately prior to the Closing, the Other Adjustments (“Closing Other Adjustments”) and (iv) as of immediately prior to the Closing, Net Working Capital (the “Closing Net Working Capital”).

(d) Disputes.

(i) If Sellers disagree with the Closing Statement or Purchasers’ calculation of any of Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments or Closing Net Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(c), Sellers may, within forty-five (45) days after receipt by Sellers of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”), deliver a notice to Purchasers providing reasonable detail of the reason for any disagreement and setting forth Sellers’ calculation of such amount (a “Dispute Notice”). Any such notice of disagreement shall specify all items or amounts with which Sellers disagree. Purchasers shall, and shall cause their Representatives to, reasonably cooperate and assist Sellers in conducting their review of the calculations of the Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital, including by providing reasonable access to books, records, accountants’ work papers (after execution and delivery by Sellers of any customary agreements required by such accountants) and appropriate personnel. Unless Sellers deliver a Dispute Notice to Purchasers on or prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Sellers will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital delivered pursuant to Section 2.02(c), and such amounts (and the calculations contained therein) will be final, binding and conclusive.

(ii) If a Dispute Notice is delivered in accordance with this Section 2.02(d), Sellers and Purchasers shall, during the forty-five (45) days following such delivery (the “Resolution Period”), attempt in good faith to reach agreement on the

disputed items or amounts in order to determine, as may be required, the amount of Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital (and all such discussions related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the parties).

(iii) Any resolution by Purchasers and Sellers during the Resolution Period as to any item identified in the Dispute Notice shall be set forth in writing and executed by the parties and will be final, binding and conclusive. If Sellers and Purchasers are not able to resolve all disputed items identified in the Dispute Notice within the Resolution Period, then the items that remain in dispute shall be submitted to a jointly selected internationally recognized accounting or consulting firm that is not the independent auditor for any of Sellers, Target Companies or Purchasers and is otherwise independent and impartial, which firm shall, within ten (10) days, select an independent and impartial partner from such firm to act as an expert and not as an arbitrator; provided that if Sellers and Purchasers are unable to select such accounting firm within thirty (30) days after the end of the Resolution Period, either Purchasers or Sellers may request the American Arbitration Association to appoint, within twenty (20) days from the date of such request, a partner in an independent accounting firm who is a certified public accountant, independent and impartial, with significant arbitration experience related to purchase price adjustment disputes. The individual arbitrator selected by the accounting firm or the American Arbitration Association, as the case may be, shall be referred to herein as the “Referee.”

(iv) If any remaining issues in dispute are submitted to the Referee for resolution, each of Sellers and Purchasers will be afforded an opportunity to present to the Referee any material relating to the determination of the matters in dispute and to discuss such matters with the Referee. The Referee shall, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and not by independent investigation, review the relevant portions of this Agreement (including Exhibit A hereto), the Closing Statement and the disputed items or amounts for the purpose of calculating Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital. In making such calculation, the Referee shall consider only those items or amounts (and related items that underlie such items and amounts) in the Closing Statement and Purchasers’ calculation of Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital as to which Sellers have disagreed. The Referee shall deliver to Sellers and Purchasers, as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date of engagement of the Referee), a report setting forth its calculation of the Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital as applicable; provided that the Referee shall be instructed that its calculations (i) with respect to each item in dispute, must be within the range of values established for such amount as determined by reference to the value assigned to such amount by Sellers in the Dispute Notice and by Purchasers in the Closing Statement and (ii) must be made in accordance with the standards and definitions in this Agreement (including Exhibit A hereto). Such report shall be final, binding and non-appealable upon Sellers and Purchasers. The costs and expenses of the Referee shall be borne by Purchasers and Sellers in the same proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such remaining

disputed items so submitted to the Referee that are unsuccessfully disputed by Purchasers, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, as finally determined by the Referee, bears to the total dollar amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted. For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to $1,000 and the Referee awards $600 in favor of the Sellers’ position, 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Purchasers and 40% of the costs would be borne by Sellers.

(v) The final, binding and conclusive calculations of Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments and Closing Net Working Capital, based either upon agreement or deemed agreement by Purchasers and Sellers or the written determination delivered by the Referee, in each case, in accordance with this Section 2.02(d)(v), will be the final and binding determination for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Net Adjustment Amount.

(i) If the Net Adjustment Amount is positive, Purchasers shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Net Adjustment Amount being finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.02(e)(i), pay, or cause to be paid, the Net Adjustment Amount in immediately available funds to an account of the Sellers, for further payment to the other Sellers in accordance with the allocation set forth in Section 5.18(h) of the Disclosure Letter, no later than two (2) Business Days after such final determination pursuant to this Section 2.02(e)(i).

(ii) If the Net Adjustment Amount is negative, Sellers shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Net Adjustment Amount being finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.02(e)(ii), pay, or cause to be paid, the absolute value of the Net Adjustment Amount in immediately available funds to Purchasers by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by Purchasers no later than two (2) Business Days after such final determination pursuant to this Section 2.02(e)(ii).

(f) The process set forth in this Section 2.02 shall be the exclusive remedy of Sellers and Purchasers for any disputes related to the Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Other Adjustments, Closing Net Working Capital and Net Adjustment Amount, whether or not the underlying facts and circumstances constitute a breach of any representations or warranties contained in this Agreement.

SECTION 2.03 Closing Deliveries.

(a) At the Closing, Purchasers shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Sellers:

(vii) the officer’s certificate required pursuant to Section 6.02(e);

Except as set forth in the section of the Disclosure Letter dated the date hereof and delivered by Sellers to Purchasers with respect to this Agreement (the “Disclosure Letter”) that specifically corresponds to such section of this Article III (or in any other section of the Disclosure Letter if the applicability of such disclosure to such section is reasonably apparent on its face), each of Sellers and the Target Companies, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to Purchasers that the statements contained in this Article III are true and correct.

The Target Companies and each of their respective Subsidiaries are duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign corporation authorized to do business in each of the jurisdictions in which the character of the properties owned or held under lease by it or the nature of the business transacted by it makes such qualification necessary, except for such failures to be so qualified and in good standing that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Target Companies have heretofore made available to Purchasers true, correct and complete copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws (or similar governing documents) as in effect on the date hereof for the Target Companies and each of their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the Target Companies nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, own any interest in any Person other than the Target Companies’ Subsidiaries.

All of the Canadian Equity Securities are beneficially and of record owned by Canadian Seller, free and clear of all Encumbrances. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement will convey to Purchasers good title to the Equity Interests, free and clear of all Encumbrances, except for those created by Purchasers or arising out of ownership of the Equity Interests by Purchasers and other than restrictions on transfer of unregistered securities arising under applicable federal, state or foreign securities Laws.

SECTION 3.05 Subsidiaries.

(a) Set forth in Section 3.05(a) of the Disclosure Letter is a list of all of the capital stock or other equity interest in any Person owned by the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

All of the Financial Statements are qualified by the fact that the Target Companies and the Business have not operated as a separate “stand alone” entity within Sellers. As a result, the Business received certain allocated charges and credits as discussed more fully in the notes accompanying the Financial Statements. Such charges and credits do not necessarily reflect the amounts which would have resulted from arms-length transactions or which the Business would incur on a stand-alone basis.

SECTION 3.09 Absence of Certain Changes. Since the date of the Interim Financial Statements, (a) the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall have not suffered any Material Adverse Effect, and (b) the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries have conducted the Business only in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with past practice, in each case, in all material respects, except for the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the entrance into the Real Estate Sale/Leaseback Transaction Documents, the Master Subcontracting Print Arrangements and Intellectual Property Arrangements.

Neither the Target Companies nor their respective Subsidiaries have promised or agreed to any material variation to the contract of employment of any of the Employees which is due to take effect after the Closing

Date. As of the date hereof, other than the Employees, there is no employee of Sellers or any of its Affiliates who is principally dedicated or assigned to the Business.

reserves, contributions and premiums required by and due under the terms of each Target Company Benefit Plan or applicable Law have been timely paid in accordance with the terms of such Target Company Benefit Plan, the terms of all applicable Laws and GAAP.

(g) None of the Target Companies and their Subsidiaries nor, to Sellers’ Knowledge, any other Person has engaged in any “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA), which could subject any of the Target Company Benefit Plans, the Target Companies or any of their Subsidiaries (or any Person that the Target Companies or any of their Subsidiaries has an obligation to indemnify) to any Tax or penalty imposed under Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502 of ERISA.

(h) No Target Company Benefit Plan provides for the gross-up or reimbursement of Taxes under or relating to Section 409A of the Code.

(b) All information provided or obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including pursuant to subsection (a) above) shall be treated as “Evaluation Material” in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time such Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate; provided that the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate only in respect of the confidentiality obligations relating to that portion of the Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) relating to the Business. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(c) Following the Closing, subject to any applicable Law and contractual confidentiality obligations, Sellers shall permit Purchasers and their Representatives and advisors (including attorneys and accountants) to have reasonable access (including to examine and make copies of, as applicable), during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, at Purchasers’ expense, to any books and records, documents, associates (to the extent executive officers of Sellers (to be designated by Sellers) are present) and other information (collectively, “Information”) directly relating to the Business if, and to the extent, retained by Sellers or their Affiliates, in each case for any reasonable purpose directly relating to the Target Companies’ Business, including in connection with (i) the preparation of Purchasers’ accounting records or with any audits, (ii) any Action or Proceeding relating to or referring to the Business or the Target Companies and their Subsidiaries in any manner, (iii) any regulatory filing or matter, or (iv) any other bona fide legal or business purpose of Purchasers or their Affiliates; provided that Purchasers shall reimburse Sellers promptly for all documented, reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Sellers in connection with any such request; provided, further, that Sellers may redact or withhold any portion of any Information that does not relate to the Business or the Target Companies prior to providing access thereto to Purchasers or their Representatives or advisors.

(d) Following the Closing, subject to any applicable Law and contractual confidentiality obligations, Purchasers shall permit Sellers and their Representatives and advisors (including attorneys and accountants) to have reasonable access (including to examine and make copies of, as applicable), during regular business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, at Sellers’ expense, to any Information directly relating to the Business or the Target Companies which were not retained by Sellers or their Affiliates (including the Target Companies’ records) for any reasonable purpose directly relating to the businesses of Sellers or their Affiliates, including in connection with (i) the preparation of Sellers’ or their Affiliates’ accounting records or with any audits, (ii) any Action or Proceeding relating to or referring to the pre-Closing Business or the pre-Closing operations of the Target Companies in any manner, (iii) any regulatory filing or matter or (iv) any other bona fide legal or business purpose of Sellers or their Affiliates; provided that Sellers shall reimburse Purchasers promptly for all documented, reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Purchasers in connection with any such request.

(e) At the Closing, Sellers shall transmit, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to transmit, to Purchasers (or the Target Companies) all Transferred Books and Records to the extent in the possession of Sellers and their respective Affiliates or to the extent Sellers or their respective Affiliates have the right to so deliver such Transferred Books and

Records. Sellers and their respective Affiliates shall have the right to retain copies of any Transferred Books and Records for legal, regulatory, tax or accounting purposes, so long as Sellers or their Affiliates provide at least one copy of such Transferred Books and Records to Purchasers and keep such retained Transferred Books and Records confidential.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to disclose any Information if (i) it believes in good faith that doing so presents a significant risk, based on advice of counsel (which can be inside counsel), of resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege or (ii) Sellers or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Purchasers, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided that, in the case of clause (i) above, the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information without resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege; provided, further, that Sellers and their respective Affiliates shall not be required to provide Purchasers or their Representatives with any information related to the Sale Process or Sellers’ or their Representatives’ evaluation thereof, including projections, financial or other information related thereto other than projections, financial or other information prepared in the ordinary course of the Business without being primarily prepared for the Sale Process.

(g) Each party shall preserve and keep all books and records that are retained by Sellers or any of their Affiliates or are obtained by Purchasers hereunder, as the case may be, which information relates to the Target Companies or the Business, for a reasonable period (not less than seven (7) years) after the Closing Date, or for any longer period as may be (i) required by Law or any Governmental Authority or (ii) reasonably necessary with respect to the prosecution or defense of any audit or other legal or regulatory Action that is then pending or threatened and with respect to which the requesting party has notified the other party as to the need to retain such books and records.

(h) No information or knowledge obtained in any investigation made pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made hereunder by any party to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.03 Provisions Respecting Representation of the Target Companies. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, managers, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates, that any of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP or Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Street LLP, (collectively, the “Law Firms”) may serve as counsel to Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Target Companies, on the other hand, in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, any of the Law Firms (or any successor) may serve as counsel to Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates, in connection with any Action or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement notwithstanding such representation or any continued representation of the Target Companies, and each of the parties hereto (on their own behalf and on behalf of their respective Affiliates) hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives any conflict of interest arising therefrom, and each of such parties shall cause any Affiliate thereof to consent to irrevocably waive any conflict of interest arising

from such representation. The parties agree to take the steps necessary to ensure that any privilege attaching as a result of any Law Firm representing the Target Companies in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect, provided that such Privilege from and after the Closing shall be controlled by Sellers. As to any privileged attorney client communications between any Law Firm and the Target Companies prior to the Closing Date, Purchasers and the Target Companies, together with any of their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries, successors or assigns, agree that no such party may use or rely on any such privileged attorney client communications in any Action against or involving any of the parties after the Closing. In addition, all communications involving attorney-client confidences between the Sellers, the Target Companies or their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Law Firm, on the other hand, in the course of the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (and not the Target Companies or their respective Subsidiaries). Accordingly, the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall not have access to any such communications or to the files of any Law Firm relating to such engagement from and after the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (i) the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (and not the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the Target Companies or their respective Subsidiaries shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of any Law Firm in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only the Sellers and their respective Affiliates (and not the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) shall hold such property rights and (iii) such Law Firm shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries by reason of any attorney-client relationship between the Law Firm and the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries or otherwise. This Section 5.03 is intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Law Firms.

SECTION 5.04 Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation. At all times from and after the Closing, Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to make available to Purchasers, upon reasonable written request, their officers, directors, employees, consultants and agents as witnesses to the extent that (i) such Persons may reasonably be required to testify in connection with the prosecution or defense of any Action or Proceeding in which Purchasers may from time to time be involved (except for claims, demands or Actions or Proceedings between Sellers and Purchasers) in connection with the Business and the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries and (ii) there is no conflict in the Action or Proceeding between Sellers and Purchasers, as applicable. Sellers shall be entitled to receive from the recipient of such services, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses (which shall not include the costs of salaries and benefits of employees who are witnesses or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service as witnesses) as may be reasonably incurred and properly paid under applicable Law. At all times from and after the Closing, Purchasers shall use their reasonable best efforts to make available to Sellers, upon reasonable written request, the Target Companies’ officers, directors, employees, consultants and agents as witnesses to the extent that (i) such Persons may reasonably be required to testify in connection with the prosecution or

defense of any Action or Proceeding in which Sellers may from time to time be involved (except for claims, demands or Actions or Proceedings between Sellers and Purchasers) relating the conduct of the Business prior to the Closing and (ii) there is no conflict in the Action or Proceeding between Sellers and Purchasers, as applicable. Purchasers shall be entitled to receive from the recipient of such services, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses (which shall not include the costs of salaries and benefits of employees who are witnesses or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service as witnesses) as may be reasonably incurred and properly paid under applicable Law.

SECTION 5.05 Employees; Benefit Plans.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall or shall cause any of their Affiliates to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) transfer to Sellers or one of their Affiliates (other than the Target Companies) the employment of any active employee of the Target Companies who is not an Employee and listed on Section 1.1(b)(i) of the Disclosure Letter, and (ii) transfer to the Target Companies the employment of any Employee who is listed on Section 1.1(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Letter and is not, as of the date hereof, employed by the Target Companies.

(b) During the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing (or if earlier, the date of the Employee’s termination of employment with the Target Companies), Purchasers shall, or shall cause the Target Companies to, provide each Employee who remains employed immediately after the Closing (“Company Continuing Employee”) with: (i) base salary or hourly wages, target cash bonus opportunities, commissions and equity-based compensation, which are, in the aggregate comparable, to the base salary, hourly wages, target cash bonus opportunities, commissions and equity-based compensation provided to such Company Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, provided that Purchasers will not decrease base salary or hourly wages for any Company Continuing Employee, except for any such decreases determined in good faith, as a result of such Company Continuing Employee’s poor performance or change in duties as determined by Purchasers in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; (ii) retirement and welfare benefits that are comparable in the aggregate to the retirement and welfare benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchasers, provided that nothing herein shall require Purchasers to offer continued coverage to domestic partners of Company Continuing Employees; (iii) severance benefits that are comparable to those provided to similarly situated employees of Purchasers; (iv) vacation and paid time off benefits that (x) for the period ending on December 31, 2016, are no less favorable than the vacation and paid time off benefits in effect for such Company Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (y) for the remainder of such twelve (12) month period, are comparable to the vacation and paid time off benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchasers; and (v) other terms and conditions of employment that are comparable to the terms and conditions provided to similarly situated employees of Purchasers.

(c) With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or its Subsidiaries (collectively, “Purchaser Benefit Plans”) in which any Company Continuing Employees will participate effective as of the Closing, Purchasers shall, or shall cause any of

their applicable Subsidiaries, including the Target Companies, to recognize all service of the Company Continuing Employees with Sellers and any of Sellers’ Affiliates (including the Target Companies) or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, as if such service were with Purchasers, for vesting and eligibility purposes in any Purchaser Benefit Plan in which such Company Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing Date; provided, however, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits.

(d) Purchasers shall, or shall cause any of their applicable Subsidiaries, including the Target Companies, to (i) waive any preexisting condition limitations and actively at work requirements otherwise applicable to Company Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents under any Purchaser Benefit Plan that provides health and welfare benefits in which Company Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing, other than any limitations that were in effect with respect to such employees as of the Closing under the analogous Benefit Plan, (ii) honor any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums incurred by the Company Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents under the health plans in which they participated immediately prior to the Closing during the portion of the calendar year prior to the Closing in satisfying any deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums under health plans of Purchasers, the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which they are eligible to participate after the Closing in the same plan year in which such deductibles, co-payments or out-of-pocket maximums were incurred and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a Company Continuing Employee and his or her eligible dependents on or after the Closing, in each case to the extent such Company Continuing Employee or eligible dependent had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous Benefit Plan prior to the Closing.

(e) Effective as of the Closing, U.S. Purchaser shall, or shall cause any of its applicable Subsidiaries, including the U.S. Target, to have in effect a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Purchaser 401(k) Plan”) that will cover United States Company Continuing Employees after the Closing and accept rollovers of distributions, including the in-kind rollover of notes evidencing loans to United States Company Continuing Employees, from the tax-qualified DST Systems, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan in which the United States Company Continuing Employees participate as of the Closing (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”). Effective as of the Closing, Sellers shall (or shall cause the plan sponsor of the Seller 401(k) Plan to) (i) fully vest all Company Continuing Employees’ accounts under the Seller 401(k) Plan, and (ii) within ten (10) Business Days following the Closing, contribute to the Seller 401(k) Plan (and credit to the accounts of Company Continuing Employees thereunder) (A) all matching employer contributions relating to the Company Continuing Employees’ pre-tax and post-tax contributions, including matching employer contributions, with respect to the portion of the 2016 plan year that elapsed prior to the Closing Date, and (B) all discretionary employer contributions relating to Company Continuing Employees for the 2015 plan year that would have otherwise been credited to the Seller 401(k) Plan accounts of such Company Continuing Employees had they continued to be employees of Sellers and their Affiliates. U.S. Seller and U.S. Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to allow Company Continuing Employees

with outstanding loan balances under the Seller 401(k) Plan to elect to directly rollover their loans to the Purchaser 401(k) Plan.

(f) Purchasers shall, through the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2016, maintain health care and dependent care flexible spending accounts for United States Company Continuing Employees under Parent’s Code Section 125 plan (“Purchasers’ FSA”). Purchasers’ FSA shall provide that United States Company Continuing Employees shall participate in Purchasers’ FSA and each such Company Continuing Employee shall be credited immediately following the Closing Date under Purchasers’ FSA with amounts available for reimbursement equal to such amounts as were credited under the Health Care Flexible Spending Account and Dependent Care Spending Account components of the DST Systems, Inc. Code Section Flexible Spending Program (“Sellers’ FSA”) with respect to such Person on the Closing Date. Purchasers shall (i) give effect to the elections made by such Company Continuing Employees under Sellers’ FSA for the remainder of 2016 and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of the amounts transferred in accordance with the following sentence, process all claims for reimbursement on and after the Closing Date including claims incurred before the Closing Date but not yet reimbursed. Sellers shall transfer cash to Purchasers, in an amount equal to the net aggregate amount of all Closing Date balances of such Company Continuing Employees under Sellers’ FSA that are credited under Purchasers’ FSA, if such amount is positive; and Purchasers shall pay Sellers a cash amount equal to the net aggregate amount of all such balances if such amount is negative. Sellers and Purchasers agree to make reasonable, good faith efforts to implement the provisions of this Section 5.05(f), including (i) if possible, in the ordinary course consistent with Parent’s past practice with respect to Purchaser Benefit Plans, making necessary plan amendments, (ii) causing the transfer of any cash amount set forth in this Section 5.05(f) within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date, and (ii) Sellers promptly providing Purchasers with information and documents (and arrange for communications with, and provide directions to, Sellers’ FSA third party administrator(s)) reasonably requested by Purchasers for Purchasers to comply with Purchasers’ obligations set forth in this Section 5.05(f).

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, after the Closing, Purchasers shall, or shall cause the Target Companies to, provide for terms and conditions of employment for any Company Continuing Employee in accordance with applicable Law.

(h) From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, Purchasers shall not communicate with any Company Continuing Employees, including communications related to compensation, benefits or other treatment that they will receive in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, unless any such communications have been reviewed and approved by Sellers in advance of such communications (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(i) This Section 5.05 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 5.05, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 5.05. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement. The parties

hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 5.05 shall not create any right in any Employee or any other Person to any continued employment with the Target Companies, Purchasers or any of their respective Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

(j) Purchasers shall, and shall cause the Target Companies to, and each of them hereby does, assume all liability and obligation for, and neither Sellers nor any of their Affiliates after the Closing Date shall retain any liability or obligation for severance pay and obligations payable to any Company Continuing Employee who is terminated by Purchasers or any Target Company on or after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any severance obligations for any Employees who, other than as a result of actions taken by Purchasers, do not become Company Continuing Employees shall be borne by Sellers.

(k) In respect of the Company Continuing Employees, Purchasers shall use best efforts to comply with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and all reporting obligations thereunder.

(l) To assist in compliance with Purchasers’ obligations under this Section 5.05, Sellers shall provide to Purchasers (i) such information as Purchasers may reasonably request to facilitate the rollover of distributions from the Seller 401(k) Plan to the Purchaser 401(k) Plan in accordance with Section 5.05(e), (ii) within thirty (30) days following the Closing Date (or at such later dates as may be reasonably requested by Purchasers), an Arrow Master Census U.S. and Canada report as in 10.1.14 in the Data Room, updated with information correct as of the Closing Date, and (iii) such additional information as Purchasers may reasonably request, including, without limitation, information to enable Purchasers to comply with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and reporting obligations thereunder.

(m) To the extent the Target Companies are participating employers in any of the Seller Benefit Plans, Sellers shall, prior to but effective as of the day prior to the Closing or such other date pursuant to and in accordance with the Reciprocal Transition Services Agreement, cause the Target Companies to withdraw as participating employers in such Seller Benefit Plans.

(n) Sellers shall take the following action with respect to its deferred compensation program: (i) outstanding cash awards with a settlement date of December 1, 2016 and as to which no extended deferral elections have been made shall be paid by Sellers on the scheduled payment date of December 1, 2016 or such earlier date as shall be determined by Sellers and (ii) Sellers shall retain the liability for all cash awards as to which extended deferral elections have been made with respect to any Company Continuing Employee listed on Section 1.1(b)(i) of the Disclosure Letter or former Employee of the Target Companies who is either in pay status or is entitled to future payments (“Nonqualified Plan Participants”). Purchasers shall promptly advise Sellers in writing of any Nonqualified Plan Participant’s separation from service on or following the Closing Date, but in no event later than ten (10) days following such separation from service. Sellers and Purchasers hereby agree that each Employee, including a Nonqualified Plan Participant, providing services to Sellers and the Target Companies immediately prior to the Closing Date and providing services to Purchasers and the Target Companies after and in connection with the transactions contemplated herein shall not be

deemed to have experienced a separation from service for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, neither Purchasers nor the Target Companies shall be required to continue the employment of any Company Continuing Employee after the Closing Date.

(o) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchasers shall pay to the applicable Company Continuing Employees, through payroll in the first applicable payroll period after Closing, any and all (i) annual cash bonus amounts accrued through June 30, 2016 and (ii) the Retention Amounts, as well as any and all applicable associated payroll Taxes directly relating to such amounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any and all amounts paid to Company Continuing Employees in connection with the prior sentence shall be accrued as a Current Liability of the Business on the Closing Statement for purposes of determining the Adjusted Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.02.

From and after the Closing Date, Purchasers, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand (each, the “Recipient,” and together, the “Tax Contest Parties”), shall notify the other Tax Contest Party within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Recipient of written notice of any tax deficiency, proposed tax adjustment, tax assessment, tax audit, tax examination or other administrative or court proceeding, suit, dispute or other claim with respect to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Target Companies or their Subsidiaries (each and any of the foregoing, a “Tax Contest”) which Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to affect the obligations of such other Tax Contest Party, or their Affiliates, with respect to Taxes pursuant to this Agreement. A Recipient’s failure to comply with this notice provision shall not affect such Recipient’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement unless (and only to the extent that) the other Tax Contest Party is adversely prejudiced as a consequence of such failure.

(i) If a Tax Contest relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period, Sellers shall, at their expense, control the defense and settlement of such Tax Contest and Purchasers, at Purchasers’ expense and with counsel of its own choosing, shall have the right to participate fully in all aspects of the defense of such Tax Contest; provided, however, that, if the resolution of such Tax Contest would increase the Tax liability of Purchasers or any of their Affiliates for any Post-Closing Straddle Period or Post-Closing Tax Period or otherwise adversely affect Purchasers or any of their Affiliates, Sellers shall (a) conduct such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith, (b) consult in good faith with Purchasers before taking any action in connection with such Tax Contest that might adversely affect Purchasers or any of their Affiliates, (c) consult in good faith with Purchasers and offer Purchasers a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting to any Governmental Authority any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Contest, and (d) not settle, discharge, compromise, or otherwise dispose (each, a “disposition”) of such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior written consent of Purchasers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(ii) Purchasers shall, at their expense, control the defense and settlement of all Tax Contests other than those described in Section 5.18(f)(i). Sellers, at Sellers’ expense and with counsel of their own choosing, shall have the right to participate fully in all aspects of the defense of such Tax Contest if the resolution of such Tax Contest would increase the Tax liability of Sellers or otherwise adversely affect Sellers or any of their Affiliates.

(iii) Each Tax Contest Party shall promptly provide to the other Tax Contest Party copies of all written notices and other documents received from any Governmental Authority with respect to any Tax Contest (provided that the Tax Contest Party receiving such notice or other document may redact from such copies information not reasonably related to or necessary for determining amounts for which the other Tax Contest Party may be liable hereunder with respect to such Tax Contest).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation, the Purchase Price Allocation or any of the 338(h)(10) Allocations are disputed by any Governmental Authority, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the other party concerning resolution of such dispute.

(g) Tax Records and Cooperation. The Purchasers and the Sellers (and their respective Affiliates) shall cooperate with each other in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns and any audit, litigation or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes, whether for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, Pre-Closing Straddle Period, Post-Closing Tax Period, or Post-Closing Straddle Period. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation, or other Proceeding and making employees with relevant knowledge available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder; provided, however, that Sellers shall not be required to provide any copies of their consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Returns under this Section 5.18(g) or any other provisions of this Agreement. The parties agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to any Target Company or Subsidiary thereof relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Purchasers or the Sellers any extensions of the statute of limitations) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority, and (ii) to give the other party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if any of the other parties so requests, the Purchasers or the Sellers, as the case may be, shall allow the other party to take possession of such books and records.

(h) Allocation of Purchase Price. The parties agree that the Final Purchase Price shall be allocated between the U.S. Interests (the “U.S. Purchase Price”) and the Canadian Equity Securities (the “Canadian Purchase Price”) as mutually determined in good faith by the Sellers and the Purchasers (the “Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation”). The parties also agree that the purchase and sale of the U.S. Interests shall be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the purchase by U.S. Purchaser and the sale by U.S. Seller of all of the assets of U.S. Target. Not later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide to

Purchasers their determination of the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation in a manner consistent with Section 5.18(h) of the Disclosure Letter. Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the proposed Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation, Purchasers shall notify Sellers in writing if they disagree with such proposed allocation and, in the event of disagreement, the parties shall make a good faith attempt to reach an agreement. If the parties are unable to reach agreement regarding the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation, all unresolved items that remain in dispute shall be submitted to a jointly selected internationally recognized accounting firm, the costs of which will be borne equally by the Sellers and Purchasers. Such accounting firm shall resolve all items in dispute in a manner consistent with Section 5.18(h) of the Disclosure Letter. The proposed allocation as revised to reflect the resolutions of such accounting firm shall be the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation. Not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall provide to Purchasers (i) an allocation of the U.S. Purchase Price and any liabilities of the U.S. Target and its Subsidiaries other than Xxxxxxx Products, Inc. (to the extent treated as liabilities for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the assets of U.S. Target (including the stock of DST Output Electronic Solutions, Inc., DST Mailing Services, Inc., DST Output East, LLC, DST Output West, LLC, Lateral Group NA, LLC and Xxxxxxx Products, Inc. and the assets of DST Output Central, LLC) and (ii) an allocation of the Canadian Purchase Price and any liabilities of Canadian Target (to the extent treated as liabilities for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the assets of Canadian Target, each allocation in (i) and (ii) in a manner that complies with the requirements of the Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the proposed Purchase Price Allocation, Purchasers shall notify Sellers in writing if they disagree with such proposed allocation and, in the event of disagreement, the parties shall make a good faith attempt to reach an agreement. If the parties are unable to reach agreement regarding the Purchase Price Allocation, all unresolved items that remain in dispute shall be submitted to a jointly selected internationally recognized accounting firm, the costs of which will be borne equally by the Sellers and Purchasers. The proposed allocation as revised to reflect the resolutions of such accounting firm shall be the Purchase Price Allocation. The parties shall cooperate in preparing, executing, and filing with each Tax Authority all required information returns, including filing with the Internal Revenue Service all necessary information returns required by Section 1060 of the Code. The Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation and the Purchase Price Allocation shall be final, conclusive, and binding on each party and Purchasers and Sellers shall each timely file Internal Revenue Service Form 8594 (Acquisition Statement under Code Section 1060) and all federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns in accordance with such allocations. In the event that the Final Purchase Price is determined, or any other adjustment to the Preliminary Purchase Price or Final Purchase Price for Tax reporting purposes is made under this Agreement after delivery of the Purchase Price Allocation, Sellers and Purchasers shall mutually revise the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation, the Purchase Price Allocation and the 338(h)(10) Allocations accordingly. The Purchase Price Allocation, as finally determined, shall be used in preparing Internal Revenue Service Form 8883 for purposes of Section 5.18(i) of this Agreement. In the event that any Tax Authority disputes the Entity-Level Purchase Price Allocation, the Purchase Price Allocation, or any of the 338(h)(10) Allocations, Sellers or Purchasers, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other party in writing of the nature of such dispute.

(i) Section 338(h)(10) Elections. Except for the 338(h)(10) Elections (as defined below), neither Purchasers nor any of their Affiliates shall make any Tax election under

Section 338, including Section 338(g), of the Code or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law, with respect to any of the Target Companies or their Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Sellers.

(i) Purchasers and U.S. Seller shall, in the manner described herein, make an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (together with any comparable provisions of state or local Tax Law) with respect to each of DST Output Electronic Solutions, Inc., DST Mailing Services, Inc., DST Output East, LLC, DST Output West, LLC and Lateral Group NA, LLC (collectively, the “338(h)(10) Companies,” and such elections, the “338(h)(10) Elections”). Purchasers and U.S. Seller shall agree on the form and content of the Internal Revenue Service Form 8023 (the “Form 8023”) on which each of the respective 338(h)(10) Elections shall be made as soon as practicable following the Closing containing information then available. U.S. Seller, Purchasers and their respective Affiliates shall jointly and timely make the 338(h)(10) Elections with respect to the 338(h)(10) Companies. With respect to the 338(h)(10) Elections, U.S. Seller, Purchasers and their respective Affiliates shall, as promptly as practicable following the Closing Date, cooperate with each other to take all other actions necessary and appropriate (including filing such forms, returns, elections, schedules and other documents as may be required) otherwise to effect, perfect and preserve the 338(h)(10) Elections in accordance with the provisions of Section 338 of the Code (and any comparable provisions of state or local Tax Law) or any successor provisions; and U.S. Seller, Purchasers and their respective Affiliates shall report the sale and acquisition, respectively, of the stock of the 338(h)(10) Companies pursuant to this Agreement consistent with the 338(h)(10) Elections and shall take no position contrary thereto in any Tax Return, or in any Proceeding before any Governmental Authority.

(ii) Neither U.S. Seller, Purchasers nor any of their respective Affiliates shall take any action to modify any of the forms or reports (including any corrections, amendments or supplements thereto) that are required for the making of the 338(h)(10) Elections after their execution or to modify or revoke the 338(h)(10) Elections without the written consent of U.S. Seller or Purchasers, as the case may be.

Within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the proposed 338(h)(10) Allocations, Purchasers shall notify Sellers in writing if they disagree with such proposed allocation and, in the event of disagreement, the parties will make a good faith attempt to reach an agreement. In the event the parties do not reach an agreement, all unresolved items that remain in dispute shall be submitted to a jointly selected internationally recognized accounting

firm, the costs of which will be borne equally by the Sellers and Purchasers. The proposed allocation as revised to reflect the resolutions of such accounting firm shall be the Section 338(h)(10) Allocations. The 338(h)(10) Allocations shall be final, conclusive and binding on U.S. Seller and Purchasers (and their respective Affiliates) and U.S. Seller and Purchasers (and their respective Affiliates) shall (i) be bound by such allocations for all Tax purposes, (ii) prepare and file all Tax Returns to be filed with any Governmental Authority (including Form 8883 and Form 8594 filed with the parties’ respective federal income Tax Returns for the taxable year that includes the Closing Date and any other forms or statements required by the Code, Treasury Regulations, the Internal Revenue Service or any applicable state or local Governmental Authority) in a manner consistent with such allocations and (iii) take no position inconsistent with such allocations in any Tax Return, any Proceeding before any Governmental Authority or otherwise.

(j) Non-U.S. Operations Covenant. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2016, Purchasers shall cause the Canadian Target to operate its business consistent with past practice and shall not undertake any actions outside of the ordinary course which would affect the earnings and profits of the Canadian Target for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(k) Exclusivity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 5.18 (and not those of Article VII), shall govern the manner in which matters relating to Taxes (including indemnification related to Losses associated with Taxes and the allocations referred to in Section 5.18(h) and Section 5.18(i)) are conducted and resolved; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.04(c), Section 7.04(d),Section 7.04(e), Section 7.04(f), Section 7.04(g), Section 7.04(h), Section 7.04(i), Section 7.06 and Section 7.07 shall apply mutatis mutandis.

SECTION 5.19 Ancillary Agreements. At the Closing, each of Sellers and Purchasers shall enter into, or shall cause their respective Affiliates (as applicable) to enter into, each of the Ancillary Agreements.

SECTION 5.20 Delayed Contracts.

(a) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until such consent, approval or amendment described below is no longer required or has been obtained, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey or transfer at the Closing any Contract or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom as to which consent or approval from any Person (including consents and approvals of Governmental Authorities) to assignment, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, conveyance or transfer thereof or amendment thereof is required but has not been obtained as of the Closing Date (such Contract, a “Delayed Contract”); provided, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of any Delayed Contract or applicable Law, the parties shall treat Purchasers as the owners thereof for Tax purposes as of the Closing Date; provided, further, that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of Sellers, Purchasers, nor any of their Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or pay any money or otherwise grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party. Upon obtaining

the requisite consents or approvals, such Delayed Contract shall be transferred and assigned to Purchasers hereunder without additional consideration therefor.

(b) In the event and to the extent that, prior to the Closing, Sellers and their Affiliates are unable to obtain a consent, approval or amendment required to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey or transfer any Delayed Contract to Purchasers, then following the Closing, Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to (i) continue to hold, and to the extent required by the terms applicable to such Delayed Contract, operate such Delayed Contract in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and taking into account the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and solely for the benefit of Purchasers, (ii) cooperate in any arrangement, reasonable and lawful as to Sellers and Purchasers, designed to provide to Purchasers or their respective Subsidiaries the benefits arising under such Delayed Contract, including accepting such reasonable direction as Purchasers shall request of Sellers and (iii) enforce at Purchasers’ request, or allow Purchasers and their Affiliates to enforce in a commercially reasonable manner, any rights of the applicable Sellers under such Delayed Contract against the other party or parties thereto; provided, that the costs and expenses incurred by Sellers or their Affiliates at Purchasers’ request shall be borne solely by Purchasers. Sellers shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to, without further consideration therefor, pay and remit to Purchasers promptly all monies, rights and other consideration received in respect of such performance net of any applicable Taxes. Purchasers shall pay, perform and discharge fully, promptly when due, all of the obligations of Sellers or their Subsidiaries in respect of such performance, and Purchasers shall be responsible for all Assumed Liabilities related thereto and indemnify the Sellers for all Losses arising out of any actions (or omissions to act) of Sellers or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of such performance or taken at the direction of Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries.

(c) Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 5.20, none of the Sellers nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action that, in the good faith judgment of Sellers would reasonably be expected to (i) result in a violation of any obligation which any such Seller or any such Subsidiary has to any third party or (ii) violate applicable Law.

(d) Purchasers acknowledge that certain consents and approvals to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements may be required from certain third parties, and that such consents and approvals have not been and may not be obtained. Purchasers agree that Sellers and their Affiliates shall not have any liability whatsoever arising out of or relating to, the failure to obtain any consents or approvals that may have been or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or because of the default under or acceleration or termination of any Contracts or Permits or other right or obligation, as a result thereof. Purchasers further agree that no representation, warranty, covenant or other obligation of Sellers contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached, and no condition to Purchasers’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be deemed not satisfied, as a result of the failure to obtain any such consent or approval or as a result of any such default, acceleration or termination.

SECTION 5.21 Contracts Adjustment. The parties agree that the Adjusted Purchase Price is subject to adjustment in respect of the Covered Contracts (as defined below) for the benefit of the Purchasers as follows:

(a) If the conditions set forth on Section 5.21(a) of the Disclosure Letter are satisfied with respect to any Covered Contract and the counterparty to such Covered Contract:

(i) takes the actions set forth on Section 5.21(a)(i)(1) of the Disclosure Letter, then subject to Section 5.21(d), Sellers shall pay Purchasers an amount with respect to such Covered Contract equal to the amount set forth on Section 5.21(a)(i)(2) of the Disclosure Letter; or

(ii) takes the actions set forth on Section 5.21(a)(ii)(1) of the Disclosure Letter, then Sellers shall pay Purchasers an amount with respect to such Covered Contract equal to the amount set forth on Section 5.21(a)(ii)(2) of the Disclosure Letter.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustment pursuant to clauses (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this Section 5.21 in respect of each Covered Contract shall be subject to a cap equal to the amount set forth on Section 5.21(b) of the Disclosure Letter. Such cap shall be calculated on a per-Covered Contract basis, and not in the aggregate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event an adjustment is owed to Purchasers pursuant to Section 5.21(a)(i) with respect to Covered Contract 1, 2 or 3 (each defined on Section 5.21(i) of the Disclosure Letter), the amount owed by the Sellers pursuant to Section 5.21(a)(i) will be reduced by the full amount of any payment owed pursuant to the terms of Covered Contract 1, 2 or 3 to the Target Company that is the party to such Covered Contract by virtue of terms described on Section 5.21(d) of the Disclosure Letter.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, Purchasers or any of their respective Subsidiaries (including the Target Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries) migrate or otherwise transition any or all of the customers in the manner set forth on Section 5.21(e)(i) of the Disclosure Letter (any such customers, in each case, the “Transitioned Customers”), then the amount of any payment with respect to the adjustment owed to Purchasers pursuant to Section 5.21(a) will be reduced by the aggregate amounts for all Transitioned Customers, as set forth opposite such customers on Section 5.21(e)(ii) of the Disclosure Letter.

(f) In connection with the parties’ agreement to adjust the Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth above, Purchasers agree that they will not (i) induce any counterparty to terminate any Covered Contract or (ii) inform or otherwise make known the terms of this Section 5.21 to any counterparty to a Covered Contract.

(g) Prior to Closing, Sellers and Purchasers will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any change of control consents required under any customer agreement, including without limitation the Covered Contracts, provided that neither party will be required

to expend any money to obtain any such consent. Sellers and Purchasers shall also work in good faith to develop a plan for Purchasers to meet with certain mutually-agreed key customers of the Business prior to Closing and Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to undertake such pre-Closing customer transition meetings and communications as Purchasers may reasonably request.

(h) Following the Closing, Purchasers will continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consents under the Covered Contracts and will negotiate in good faith with the counterparties to the Covered Contracts in the ordinary course of business, consistent with Purchasers’ past practices with the customers of its businesses other than the Business.

(i) For purposes of this Section 5.21, Covered Contracts means those Contracts listed on Section 5.21(i) of the Disclosure Letter.

(j) All payments made under this Section 5.21 shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Adjusted Purchase Price for all purposes hereunder (including Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law).

(k) Following the Closing, the receipt of payments made pursuant to this Section 5.21 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Purchasers with respect to the matters addressed in this Section 5.21.

SECTION 5.22 Shared Contracts.

(a) With respect to Liabilities pursuant to, under or relating to a given Shared Contract, such Liabilities shall, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement, be allocated between Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchasers, on the other hand, as follows:

(i) If a Liability is incurred exclusively in respect of the Business, such Liability shall be allocated to Purchasers (in respect of the Business);

(ii) If a Liability cannot be so allocated under clause (i) above, such Liability shall be allocated to Sellers or Purchasers, as the case may be, based on the relative proportions of total benefit received (over the term of the Shared Contract remaining as of the Closing Date, measured as of the date of the allocation) by the Business under the relevant Shared Contract (such portion allocated to Sellers pursuant to this clause (ii), “Seller Shared Contract Liabilities”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchasers, on the other hand, shall be responsible for any or all Liabilities arising from its (or its Subsidiary’s) breach of the relevant Shared Contract to which this Section 5.22 otherwise pertains.

(b) If Sellers or any of their Subsidiaries, on the one hand, or Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries (including the Target Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the other hand, receives any benefit or payment which under any Shared Contract was intended for the other, Sellers and Purchasers will use their respective reasonable best efforts to, and to cause their respective Subsidiaries to, deliver such benefit or payment to the other party net of any applicable Taxes.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties agree that the Shared Contracts listed on Section 5.22(c)(i) of the Disclosure Letter shall not be deemed to be primarily related to the Business or otherwise for the benefit of Purchasers, the Target Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any purposes hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the parties have determined that it is advisable that certain Shared Contracts, which are identified on Section 5.22(c)(ii) of the Disclosure Letter, be separated into separate Contracts between the appropriate third party and the Business. The parties agree to cooperate and provide reasonable assistance prior to the Closing (with no obligation on the part of either party to pay any costs or fees with respect to such assistance) in effecting the separation of such Shared Contracts.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Section 5.22 shall be deemed to apply to or otherwise govern any arrangement otherwise expressly covered by the Interaffiliate Contracts, including the Master Subcontracting Print Arrangements. In the event and to the extent that there shall be a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Ancillary Agreement or Interaffiliate Contract, the Ancillary Agreement or Interaffiliate Contract shall control.

SECTION 5.23 Director and Officer Liability; Indemnification.

(a) If the Closing occurs, the Purchasers and the Target Companies agree that all rights to indemnification and all limitations on liability existing in favor of any officer, director or manager of the Target Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, in each case that is an individual (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”), as provided in the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and continue in full force and effect and be honored by the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries after the Closing. The obligations of the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries under this Section 5.23(a) shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Company Indemnitee to whom this Section 5.23(a) applies without the consent of such affected Company Indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the Company Indemnitees to whom this Section 5.23(a) applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 5.23(a)). If the Closing occurs, Sellers shall pay all expenses to any Company Indemnitee incurred in successfully enforcing the indemnity or other obligations provided for in this Section 5.23(a).

(b) For six (6) years after the Closing, the Target Companies will provide officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing Date covering each such Person currently covered by the Target Companies’ officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policies on terms with respect to coverage not materially less favorable than those of such policy in effect on the date of this Agreement and for an amount not less than the amount set forth on Section 5.23(b) of the Disclosure Letter; provided, however, that in no event shall the Target Companies be required to expend more than an amount per year equal to 200% of the current annual premiums paid by the Target Companies for such insurance; provided, further, that Sellers shall procure such policy and the cost of such policy shall be equally borne by the Sellers and the Target Companies; provided, however, that such insurance policy may be a “tail” policy covering acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing Date.

In the event that any Company Indemnitee is entitled to coverage under an officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy pursuant to this Section 5.23(b) and such policy has lapsed, terminated, been repudiated or is otherwise in breach or default as a result of the Target Companies’ failure to maintain and fulfill its obligations pursuant to such policy as provided in this Section 5.23(b), the Target Companies shall pay to the Company Indemnitee such amounts and provide any other coverage or benefits as the Company Indemnitee shall have received pursuant to such policy.

(c) In the event the Target Companies and their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Target Companies or such Subsidiaries (or their respective successors and assigns), shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.23.

SECTION 5.24 Provision of Certain Services. Purchasers acknowledge and agree that, as of the date hereof, the Business receives from Sellers and their Affiliates certain administrative and corporate services and benefits of a type generally provided to other businesses and Subsidiaries of Sellers (the “Support Services”). Sellers and Purchasers acknowledge and agree that, except as provided in the Ancillary Agreements or other arrangements that expressly survive the Closing, including the Intellectual Property Arrangements and the Master Subcontracting Print Arrangements, the Support Services shall cease at Closing, and all agreements and arrangements (whether or not in writing) in respect thereof shall terminate as of the Closing Date, with no further obligation of any party thereto.

SECTION 5.25 Parent Undertakings. Without limiting in any way Section 9.13 of this Agreement, Parent agrees to cause each of U.S. Purchaser and Canadian Purchaser to perform any and all agreements, covenants and obligations of such Purchaser and any of its Subsidiaries under this Agreement and each of the Ancillary Agreements.

All representations and warranties of Purchasers other than the Purchaser Fundamental Representations and the representations contained in

Section 4.08 shall be true and correct in all respects as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made at and as of such date (except those representations and warranties that address matters only as of a specified date, which shall be true and correct in all respects as of that specified date), except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct (without giving regard to any materiality or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifications set forth therein) would not materially impede or materially delay Purchasers’ ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Purchasers shall have duly performed and complied in all material respects with all agreements, covenants and obligations required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it prior to or on the Closing Date.

(c) Sellers shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date and signed by a duly authorized officer of Purchasers that each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.03(a) and Section 6.03(b) has been satisfied.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 7.01 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in Article III (other than those referenced in clauses (a) and (b) to the proviso to this sentence) and Article IV of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect for a period from the date hereof until the General Survival Date; provided that (a) the Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect indefinitely and (b) the representations and warranties which relate solely to Tax matters contained in Section 3.13 shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect until forty-five (45) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. The covenants and agreements herein or hereunder that are required to be performed by, or impose obligations on, any Person following the Closing shall survive the Closing in accordance with their respective terms, and all other covenants and agreements contained herein shall terminate upon, and not survive, the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party following the Closing and prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of such survival period and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

SECTION 7.02 Indemnification by Sellers. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VII, from and after the Closing, Sellers shall jointly and severally indemnify Purchasers against, and shall hold Purchasers harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, Purchasers based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement other than those contained in Section 3.13 (Taxes);

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed or observed by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement, the remedy for which survives the Closing;

(d) all Seller Shared Contract Liabilities.

SECTION 7.03 Indemnification by Purchasers. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VII, Purchasers shall indemnify Sellers against, and shall hold Sellers harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, Sellers based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Purchasers contained in this Agreement;

(b) the Assumed Liabilities, subject to the express indemnification obligations of Sellers pursuant to Section 7.02;

(c) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed or observed by Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement (or to be performed by the Target Companies or their respective Subsidiaries following the Closing), the remedy for which survives the Closing.

SECTION 7.04 Certain Limitations. The party making a claim under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party.” The indemnification provided for in Section 5.18(a), Section 7.02 and Section 7.03 shall be subject to the following limitations (as applicable):

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a) exceeds the amount set forth on Section 7.04(a)(i) of the Disclosure Letter (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible; provided, that, the Deductible shall not apply to the following claims, and the following claims shall not count toward the Deductible: any claims by the Purchasers on behalf of its Affiliated Indemnified Parties to the extent based upon or arising or resulting from any breach of any of the Fundamental Representations. With respect to any claim to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification under Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as the case may be, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any individual or series of related Losses which do not exceed the amount set forth on Section 7.04(a)(ii) of the Disclosure Letter (the “De Minimis Threshold”) (which Losses below the De Minimis Threshold shall not be counted towards the Deductible). For the avoidance of doubt, the De Minimis Threshold shall not apply to the Fundamental Representations.

(b) Other than with respect to Losses in connection with the Fundamental Reps, the aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable

pursuant to Section 7.02(a) or Section 7.03(a), as the case may be, shall not exceed the amount set forth on Section 7.04(b) of the Disclosure Letter.

(c) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 5.18(a), Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 in respect of any Loss shall be reduced by an amount equal to any cash Tax benefit actually realized, calculated on a “with and without” basis (i.e., assuming that the Loss giving rise to the claim for indemnification is the last item used on the Indemnified Party’s Tax return), to the extent such Tax benefit is realized in the two years such Loss is incurred by the Indemnified Party, as a result of such Loss. In the event that any such Tax benefit is actually realized by an Indemnified Party subsequent to receipt by such Indemnified Party of any indemnification payment pursuant Section 5.18(a), Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 in respect of the Loss to which such Tax benefit relates (but within the two years such Loss is incurred), the Indemnified Party shall promptly after realizing such Tax benefit make a payment to the Indemnifying Party equal to the amount of such Tax benefit.

(d) Other than with respect to Losses in connection with indemnification pursuant to Section 7.03(b), in no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, exemplary, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple.

(e) Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no indemnity may be sought hereunder in respect of any Losses to the extent such Liability (i) is reserved for or otherwise reflected in the Financial Statements or the calculations of the Estimated Cash, Estimated Indebtedness, Estimated Other Adjustments or Estimated Net Working Capital (as the same may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.02) or (ii) was taken into account in determining the Net Adjustment Amount.

(g) The indemnification provisions of this Agreement (i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than injunctive relief or specific performance as contemplated by Section 9.12 or claims for actual and intentional fraud (based on theories other than concealment or omission)) following the Closing with respect to any breach or non-fulfillment of any representation, warranty, agreement, covenant or any other obligation contained in this Agreement, (ii) shall apply without regard to, and shall not be subject to, any limitation by reason of set-off, limitation or otherwise and (iii) are intended to be comprehensive and not to be limited by any requirements of Law concerning prominence of language or waiver of any legal right under any Law (including rights under any workers compensation statute or similar statute conferring immunity from suit). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action (including rights of contributions, if any) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that it may have against Sellers or any of their Affiliates or

Purchasers or any of their Affiliates, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any Law (including any such Law relating to environmental matters (including Environmental Laws) or arising under or based upon any securities Law, common Law or otherwise). The obligations of the parties set forth in Section 5.18(a) and this Section 7.04 shall be conditioned upon the Closing having occurred. Without limiting the generality of this Section 7.04, in no event shall any party, its successors or permitted assigns be entitled to claim or seek rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. Each of the parties hereto expressly waives all rights under California Civil Code § 1542 (and any similar, comparable, or equivalent Law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law) as to all released claims. California Civil Code § 1542 provides as follows: A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR. The parties hereto intend for the terms of Section 7.04(g) to apply to any claims covered by the scope described therein and herein, including those claims which they do not presently know to exist at this time. The parties hereto understand that the facts upon which they have based their respective decisions to enter into this Agreement may hereafter prove to be different from the facts now known or believed by them, and they hereby accept and assume the risk thereof and agree that this Agreement shall be and shall remain, in all respects, effective and not subject to termination or rescission by reason of any such difference in facts.

(h) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Losses shall be determined without duplication of any other Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made or could be made under any other representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and net of any insurance or other prior or subsequent recoveries (including under or pursuant to any insurance policy, indemnity, reimbursement agreement or Contract pursuant to which or under which such Indemnified Party or such Indemnified Party’s Affiliates is a party or has rights) actually received by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, less related costs and expenses actually incurred in connection with such recoveries; provided, that the amount deemed to be recovered under insurance policies shall also be net of any increase in the premium for such policies to the extent arising out of such Losses or the claims made related thereto. The applicable Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies the maximum portion of any Losses of such Indemnified Parties. If the applicable Indemnified Parties shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to recover any amounts recoverable under insurance policies and shall not have recovered the applicable Losses, the applicable Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the amount by which such Losses exceeds the amounts actually recovered (subject to the limitations contained herein). If the applicable Indemnified Parties fail to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover any amounts recoverable under insurance policies, the applicable Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify the applicable Indemnified Party for that portion of any Losses that could reasonably be expected to have been recovered had the applicable Indemnified Parties used such commercially reasonable efforts. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall any party, its successors or permitted assigns be entitled to claim or seek rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements.

(i) Except as relates to Losses arising out of or related to the Assumed Liabilities, in no event shall any party have any obligation or liability under this Article VII arising from or relating to, directly or indirectly, any legislation or accounting principle not in force on the date hereof (or any alteration or repeal of any legislation or accounting principle in force on the date hereof), or which takes effect retroactively, or occurs as a result of any increase in the rate of Tax in force on the date hereof or any change in the practices of the relevant Governmental Authority (including changes in the interpretation of relevant legislation or accounting principles).

SECTION 7.05 Indemnification Procedures. The provisions of this Section 7.05 shall apply in accordance with their terms except in the case of any Tax Contest or any other matter relating to Taxes or Tax Returns, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 5.18.

(a) Third-Party Claims.

(i) If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third-Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt (but in any event, within 30 days after it becomes aware of such Third-Party Claim) written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced or otherwise actually forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.

(ii) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party to assume the defense of, any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, cooperate in good faith in such defense.

(iii) In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 7.05(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof.

(iv) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 7.05(b), pay, compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. Sellers and Purchasers shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third-Party Claims. The Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably, withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as provided in this Section 7.05(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may consent to and accept and agree to such offer. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 7.05(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably, withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt (but in any event, within 30 days after it becomes aware of such Direct Claim) written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 60 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such 60-day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Target Companies’ premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 60-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.06 Adjustments to Losses. In calculating the amount of any Loss for which either party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, to the extent such Loss is otherwise recovered by a party pursuant to other terms of this Agreement, the amount of such recovery shall be deducted from the amount owed in order to prevent the same amount from being paid more than once.

SECTION 7.07 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

ARTICLE VIII

TERMINATION

SECTION 8.01 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by Purchasers, effective upon written notice to Sellers, if there shall have been a breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants set forth in this Agreement on the part of Sellers or the Target Companies which has rendered the satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 6.01 or Section 6.02 impossible, such violation or breach has not been waived by Purchasers, and the breach has not been cured within 30 days following Purchasers’ written notice of such breach; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(a) shall not be available to Purchasers if any Purchaser is then in material breach of any material representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein;

(b) by Sellers, effective upon written notice to Purchasers, if there shall have been a breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants set forth in this Agreement on the part of Purchasers which has rendered the satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 6.01 or Section 6.03 impossible, such violation or breach has not been waived by Sellers, and the breach has not been cured within 30 days following Sellers’ or the Target Companies’ written notice of such breach; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(b) shall not be available to Sellers or the Target Companies if any Target Company is then in material breach of any material representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein;

(c) by Sellers or Purchasers, effective upon written notice, if the Closing shall not have occurred by December 13, 2016; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(c) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been a principal cause of, or shall have otherwise resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date;

(d) by Purchasers or Sellers, effective upon written notice, if there shall be in effect a final, non-appealable order of a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction permanently prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that the terminating party shall have fulfilled its obligations contained in Section 5.07 prior to exercising its right to termination under this Section 8.01(d); or

(e) by the mutual written consent of Sellers and Purchasers at any time prior to Closing.

SECTION 8.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Article VIII, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto except:

(b) that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability for any willful and intentional breach of any provision hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “willful and intentional” breach means a material breach that is a consequence of an act or omission knowingly undertaken by the breaching party with the intent of causing a breach of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

For purposes of this Agreement: (a) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole, including any exhibits, schedules and annexes hereto; (d) all references to “$” or “Dollars” are to the lawful currency of the United States of America; and (e) the terms contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such terms. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to Articles, Sections, Disclosure Letter and Exhibits mean the Articles and Sections of, and Disclosure Letter and Exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation

This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Disclosure Letter and Exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein. The specification of any dollar amount in any representation or warranty contained in Article III or Article IV is not intended to imply that such amount, or higher or lower amounts, are or are not material for purposes of this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, and no party shall use the fact of the setting forth of any such amount in any dispute or controversy between or among the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described herein or included in the Disclosure Letter is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement.

SECTION 9.04 Disclosure. Any exception or qualification set forth on the Disclosure Letter with respect to a particular representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an exception or qualification with respect to all other applicable representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement to the extent any description of facts regarding the event, item or matter disclosed is adequate so as to make reasonably apparent or otherwise make the other parties reasonably aware that such exception or qualification is applicable to such other representations, warranties or covenants whether or not such exception or qualification is so numbered. The inclusion of information in any section of the Disclosure Letter hereto shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material to the Target Companies, their respective Subsidiaries or the Business. Prior to the Closing, Sellers and the Target Companies shall have the right to supplement, modify or update the Disclosure Letter hereto, provided, that, any such supplements, modifications, or updates shall have effect solely for purposes of any claims made by Purchasers or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to Section 8.02(b) and shall not otherwise limit or modify any of the other rights or potential remedies of Purchasers or any of their respective Affiliates hereunder.

SECTION 9.05 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.06 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

SECTION 9.07 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, together with all exhibits and schedules thereto, the Disclosure Letter and the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 9.08 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Except as provided in Section 5.03 and Section 5.23 of this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.10 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

SECTION 9.11 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction).

(b) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT, THE OTHER ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY MAY BE INSTITUTED IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (B) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11(c).

SECTION 9.12 Specific Performance.
