WHEREAS, each of Parent and SpinCo has determined that it is appropriate and desirable to set forth the principal corporate transactions required to effect the Separation, the Contribution, the IPO, the Plan of Reorganization and the Distribution (the “Transactions”) and certain other agreements that will govern certain matters relating to the Transactions and the relationship of Parent, SpinCo and the members of their respective Groups following the consummation of the Transactions.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (A) while a single Liability may fall within more than one of the clauses (i) through (vii) in this Section 2.3(a), such fact does not imply that (x) such Liability shall be transferred more than once or (y) any duplication of such Liability is required, (B) the SpinCo Liabilities shall not in any event include any Liability referred to in clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 2.3(b) or any Liabilities set forth in Schedule 2.3(a)(ix), and (C) the SpinCo Liabilities shall not include any Liabilities related to Taxes, which shall be governed as provided in the Tax Matters Agreement.

-26-

(b) Delayed SpinCo Transfers. If and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected transfer or assignment to the SpinCo Group of legal title to any SpinCo Asset or assumption by the SpinCo Group of legal title to any SpinCo Liability in connection with the Transactions would be a violation of applicable Law or require any Approvals or Notifications that have not been obtained or made by the Separation Time, then, unless the Parties mutually shall otherwise determine, the transfer or assignment to the SpinCo Group of legal title to such SpinCo Assets or the assumption by the SpinCo Group of legal title to such SpinCo Liabilities, as the case may be, shall be automatically deemed deferred and any such purported transfer, assignment or assumption shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Approvals or Notifications have been obtained or made. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the transfer or assignment to the SpinCo Group of beneficial title to such SpinCo Assets or the assumption by the SpinCo Group of beneficial title to such SpinCo Liabilities shall occur on or prior to the Separation Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities shall continue to constitute SpinCo Assets and SpinCo Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Treatment of Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities. If any transfer or assignment of any SpinCo Asset (or a portion thereof) or any assumption of any SpinCo Liability (or a portion thereof) intended to be transferred, assigned or assumed hereunder, as the case may be, is not consummated at or prior to the Separation Time, whether as a result of the provisions of Section 2.5(b) or for any other reason (any such SpinCo Asset (or a portion thereof), a “Delayed SpinCo Asset” and any such SpinCo Liability (or a portion thereof), a “Delayed SpinCo Liability”), then, insofar as reasonably possible and subject to applicable Law, the member of the Parent Group retaining such Delayed SpinCo Asset or such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall thereafter hold such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, for the use and benefit (or the performance and obligation, in the case of a Liability) of the member of the SpinCo Group entitled thereto (at the expense of the member of the SpinCo Group entitled thereto), and such member of the SpinCo Group shall be afforded all the benefits and burdens of such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as applicable. In addition, the member of the Parent Group retaining such Delayed SpinCo Asset or such Delayed SpinCo Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability in the ordinary course of business and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the member of the SpinCo Group to whom such Delayed SpinCo Asset is to be transferred or assigned, or which will assume such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, in order to place such member of the SpinCo Group in a substantially similar position as if such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability had been contributed, transferred, assigned or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, including use, risk of loss, potential for gain and dominion, control and command over such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, and all costs and expenses related thereto, shall inure from and after the Separation Time to the SpinCo Group. Each of Parent and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to,

-27-

(i) treat for all Tax purposes any Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability as an Asset owned by, and/or a Liability of, as applicable, SpinCo or the applicable member(s) of the SpinCo Group, not later than the Separation Time, and (ii) neither report nor take any Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment (unless required by applicable Law). For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall not dispose of, pledge, sell or otherwise transfer any Delayed SpinCo Asset without the prior written consent of SpinCo.

(d) Transfer of Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities. If and when the Approvals or Notifications, the absence of which caused the deferral of transfer or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability pursuant to Section 2.5(b), are obtained or made, and, if and when any other legal impediments for the transfer or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability have been removed, the transfer or assignment of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement.

(e) Costs for Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities. Except as otherwise agreed in writing between the Parties, any member of the Parent Group retaining a Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability due to the deferral of the transfer or assignment of such Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall not be obligated, in connection with the foregoing, to expend any money unless the necessary funds are advanced (or otherwise made available) by SpinCo or the member of the SpinCo Group entitled to the Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and recording or similar fees, all of which shall be promptly reimbursed by SpinCo or the member of the SpinCo Group entitled to such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability.

(f) Approvals and Notifications for Parent Assets. To the extent that the transfer or assignment of any Parent Asset, the assumption of any Parent Liability or the Transactions requires any Approvals or Notifications, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications as soon as reasonably practicable and within any time periods required by such Approvals or Notifications; provided, however, that, except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or as otherwise agreed between Parent and SpinCo, neither Parent nor SpinCo shall be obligated to contribute capital or pay any consideration in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation or agreeing to any amended contract terms) to any Person in order to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications.

(g) Delayed Parent Transfers. If and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected transfer or assignment to the Parent Group of legal title to any Parent Asset or assumption by the Parent Group of legal title to any Parent Liability in connection with the Transactions would be a violation of applicable Law or require any Approvals or Notifications that have not been obtained or made by the Separation Time then, unless the Parties mutually shall otherwise determine, the transfer or assignment to the Parent Group of legal title to such Parent Assets or the assumption by the Parent Group of legal title to such Parent Liabilities, as the case may be, shall be automatically deemed deferred and any such purported transfer, assignment or assumption shall

-28-

be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Approvals or Notifications have been obtained or made. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the transfer or assignment to the Parent Group of beneficial title to such Parent Assets or the assumption by the Parent Group of beneficial title to such Parent Liabilities shall occur on or prior to the Separation Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Parent Assets or Parent Liabilities shall continue to constitute Parent Assets and Parent Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

(h) Treatment of Delayed Parent Assets and Delayed Parent Liabilities. If any transfer or assignment of any Parent Asset (or a portion thereof) or any assumption of any Parent Liability (or a portion thereof) intended to be transferred, assigned or assumed hereunder, as the case may be, is not consummated at or prior to the Separation Time whether as a result of the provisions of Section 2.5(g) or for any other reason (any such Parent Asset (or a portion thereof), a “Delayed Parent Asset” and any such Parent Liability (or a portion thereof), a “Delayed Parent Liability”), then, insofar as reasonably possible and subject to applicable Law, the member of the SpinCo Group retaining such Delayed Parent Asset or such Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, shall thereafter hold such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, for the use and benefit (or the performance or obligation, in the case of a Liability) of the member of the Parent Group entitled thereto (at the expense of the member of the Parent Group entitled thereto), and such member of the SpinCo Group shall be afforded all the benefits and burdens of such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as applicable. In addition, the member of the SpinCo Group retaining such Delayed Parent Asset or such Delayed Parent Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability in the ordinary course of business. Such member of the SpinCo Group shall also take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the member of the Parent Group to which such Delayed Parent Asset is to be transferred or assigned, or which will assume such Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, in order to place such member of the Parent Group in a substantially similar position as if such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability had been contributed, transferred, assigned or assumed and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, including use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, and all costs and expenses related thereto, shall inure from and after the Separation Time to the Parent Group. Each of Parent and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, (i) treat for all Tax purposes any Delayed Parent Asset or Delayed Parent Liability as an Asset owned by, and/or a Liability of, as applicable, Parent or the applicable member(s) of the Parent Group, not later than the Separation Time, and (ii) neither report nor take any Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment (unless required by applicable Law).

(i) Transfer of Delayed Parent Assets and Delayed Parent Liabilities. If and when the Approvals or Notifications, the absence of which caused the deferral of transfer or assignment of any Delayed Parent Asset or the deferral of assumption of any Delayed Parent Liability pursuant to Section 2.5(g), are obtained or made, and, if and when any other legal impediments for the transfer or assignment of any Delayed Parent Asset or the assumption of any Delayed Parent Liability have been removed, the transfer or assignment of the applicable Delayed Parent Asset or the assumption of the applicable Delayed Parent Liability, as the case may be, shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement.

(i) Prior to the Separation Time, SpinCo, at the request of Parent, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, as soon as reasonably practicable, any consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to novate or assign all SpinCo Liabilities and obtain in writing the unconditional release of each member of the Parent Group that is a party to or otherwise obligated under any such arrangements, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and effective as of the Separation Time, so that, in any such case, the members of the SpinCo Group shall be solely responsible for such SpinCo Liabilities; provided, however, that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, neither Parent nor SpinCo shall be obligated to contribute any capital or pay any consideration in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation or agreeing to any amended contract terms) to any third (3rd) Person from whom any such consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release is requested. To the extent such substitution contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 2.6(a)(i) has been effected, the members of the Parent Group shall, from and after the Separation Time, cease to have any obligation whatsoever arising from or in connection with such SpinCo Liabilities.

(ii) If SpinCo is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release, and the applicable member of the Parent Group continues to be bound by such agreement, lease, license or other obligation or Liability (each, an “Unreleased SpinCo Liability”), SpinCo shall, to the extent not prohibited by Law, (A) use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such consent, substitution, approval, amendment or release as soon as practicable following the Separation Time, and (B) as indemnitor, guarantor, agent or subcontractor for such member of the Parent Group, as the case may be, (1) pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such member of the Parent Group that constitute Unreleased SpinCo Liabilities from and after the Separation Time and (2) use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect such payment, performance or discharge prior to any demand for such payment, performance or discharge is permitted to be made by the

No such terminated agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding (including any provision thereof which purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Separation Time. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of the other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing.

(b) The provisions of Section 2.8(a) shall not apply to any of the following agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings (or to any of the provisions thereof):

(c) All of the intercompany accounts receivable and accounts payable between any member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and any member of the SpinCo Group, on the other hand, outstanding as of the Separation Time and arising out of the contracts or agreements described in Section 2.8(b) or out of the provision, prior to the Separation Time, of the services to be provided following the Separation Time pursuant to the Ancillary Agreements shall be repaid or settled following the Separation Time in the ordinary course of business or, if otherwise mutually agreed prior to the Separation Time by duly authorized representatives of Parent and SpinCo, cancelled.

5.4 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.

(a) The Parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement pursuant to this Article V or Article VI (i) will be net of Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in each case actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of any indemnifiable Liability, and (ii) shall take into account any Tax benefit realized by the Person entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) (using the methodology set forth in the Tax Matters Agreement to determine the amount of any such Tax benefit) and any Tax cost incurred by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of the indemnifiable Liabilities. Accordingly, the amount which either Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts in each case actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Liability. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or any other amounts in respect of such Liability, then within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of such Insurance Proceeds, the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or such other amounts (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

(b) The Parties agree that an insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of any provision contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification and contribution provisions hereof. Each Party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the probability of success on the merits and the cost of expending such efforts, including attorneys’ fees and expenses) to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable respecting the Liabilities for which indemnification or contribution may be available under this Article V. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may not delay making any indemnification payment required under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise satisfying any indemnification obligation, pending the outcome of any Action to collect or recover Insurance Proceeds, and an Indemnitee need not attempt to collect any Insurance Proceeds prior to making a claim for indemnification or contribution or receiving any Indemnity Payment otherwise owed to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

5.5 Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) Notice of Claims. If, at or following the Separation Time, an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Action governed by Section 5.11 a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.2 or 5.3, or any other Section of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as practicable, but in any event within fourteen (14) days (or sooner if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, including the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnification, and include copies of all material notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide timely notice in accordance with this Section 5.5(a) shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the Indemnitee’s failure to provide notice in accordance with this Section 5.5(a).

(b) Control of Defense. Subject to any insurer’s rights pursuant to any Policies of either Party, an Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and seek to settle or compromise), at its own expense and with its own counsel, any Third-Party Claim; provided, that, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming and controlling defense of such Third-Party Claim, it shall first confirm to the Indemnitee in writing that, assuming the facts presented to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnitee are true, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnitee for any such damages to the extent resulting from, or arising out of, such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense and, in the course of defending such Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party discovers that the facts presented at the time the Indemnifying Party acknowledged its indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim were not true in all material respects and (ii) such untruth provides a reasonable basis for asserting that the Indemnifying Party does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim, then (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by such acknowledgment, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall promptly thereafter provide the Indemnitee written notice of its assertion that it does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim and (C) the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 5.5(a) (or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnitee indicating whether the Indemnifying Party shall assume responsibility for defending the Third-Party Claim and specifying any reservations or exceptions to its defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 5.5(b) or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from an Indemnitee as provided in Section 5.5(a), then the Indemnitee that is the subject of such Third-Party Claim shall be entitled to continue to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

-51-

(c) Allocation of Defense Costs. If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, whether with or without any reservations or exceptions with respect to such defense, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnitee for any such fees or expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party during the course of the defense of such Third-Party Claim by such Indemnifying Party, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee as provided in Section 5.5(a), and the Indemnitee conducts and controls the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party has an indemnification obligation with respect to such Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(d) Right to Monitor and Participate. An Indemnitee that does not conduct and control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, or an Indemnifying Party that does not elect or is not entitled to defend any Third-Party Claim as contemplated hereby, nevertheless shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as reasonably necessary) of its own choosing to monitor and participate in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which it is a potential Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, and the provisions of Section 5.5(c) shall not apply to such fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Sections 7.8 and 7.9, such Party shall cooperate with the Party entitled to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim in such defense and make available to the controlling Party, at the non-controlling Party’s expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Party’s possession or under such Party’s custody or control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the controlling Party. In addition to the foregoing, if any Indemnitee reasonably determines in good faith that such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party have actual or potential differing defenses or conflicts of interest between them that make joint representation inappropriate, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as reasonably necessary) and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, and in such case the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel for all Indemnitees.

(e) No Settlement. Neither Party may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which such Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party. No Party may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which the other Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement or compromise is solely for monetary damages that are fully payable by the settling or compromising Party and does not involve any admission, finding or determination of wrongdoing or violation of Law by the other Party or another member of its Group or the Indemnitee. The Parties hereby agree that if a Party presents the other Party with a written notice containing a proposal to settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder and the Party receiving such proposal does not respond in any manner to the Party presenting such proposal within forty five (45) days (or within any such shorter time period that may be required by applicable Law or court order) of receipt of such proposal, then the Party receiving such proposal shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such proposal.

-52-

(f) Tax Matters Agreement Coordination. The provisions of Section 5.2 through Section 5.10 hereof other than Section 5.4(a)(ii) in respect of certain Tax benefits to the extent provided therein) do not apply with respect to Taxes or Tax matters (it being understood and agreed that claims with respect to Taxes and Tax matters, including the control of Tax-related proceedings, shall be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement to the extent provided therein). In the case of any conflict between this Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement in relation to any matters addressed by the Tax Matters Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement shall prevail.

5.6 Additional Matters.

(a) Timing of Payments. Indemnification or contribution payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Article V shall be paid reasonably promptly (but in any event within sixty (60) days of the final determination of the amount that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Article V) by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the Indemnitee, including reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification or contribution payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Article V shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee, and (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(b) Notice of Direct Claims. Any claim for indemnification or contribution under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the applicable Indemnifying Party; provided, that the failure by an Indemnitee to so assert any such claim shall not prejudice the ability of the Indemnitee to do so at a later time except to the extent (if any) that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period, such specified claim shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Section 5.6(b) or, in the case of any written notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of the claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall, subject to the provisions of Article VIII, be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, without prejudice to its continuing rights to pursue indemnification or contribution hereunder.

(c) Pursuit of Claims Against Third Parties. If (i) a Party incurs any Liability arising out of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; (ii) an adequate legal or equitable remedy is not available for any reason against the other Party to satisfy the Liability incurred by the incurring Party; and (iii) a legal or equitable remedy may be available to the other Party against a Third Party for such Liability, then the other Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the incurring Party, at the incurring Party’s expense, to permit the incurring Party to obtain the benefits of such legal or equitable remedy against the Third Party.

-53-

(d) Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(e) Substitution. In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the Action as set forth in Section 5.5 and this Section 5.6.

5.7 Right of Contribution.

(a) Contribution. If any right of indemnification contained in Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 is held unenforceable or is unavailable for any reason, or is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Liability for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by the Indemnitees as a result of such Liability (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the members of its Group, on the one hand, and the Indemnitees entitled to contribution, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b) Allocation of Relative Fault. Solely for purposes of determining relative fault pursuant to this Section 5.7: (i) any fault associated with the business conducted with the Delayed SpinCo Assets or Delayed SpinCo Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the Parent Group) or with the ownership, operation or activities of the SpinCo Business prior to the Separation Time shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent or any other member of the Parent Group; (ii) any fault associated with the business conducted with Delayed Parent Assets or Delayed Parent Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the SpinCo Group) shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent and the other members of the Parent Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group; and (iii) any fault associated with the ownership, operation or activities of the Parent Business prior to the Separation Time shall be deemed to be the fault of Parent and the other members of the Parent Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group.

-54-

5.8 Covenant Not to Xxx. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees that none of it, the members of such Party’s Group or any Person claiming through it shall bring suit or otherwise assert any claim against any Indemnitee, or assert a defense against any claim asserted by any Indemnitee, before any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative agency anywhere in the world, alleging that: (a) the assumption of any SpinCo Liabilities by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason; (b) the retention of any Parent Liabilities by Parent or a member of the Parent Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason; or (c) the provisions of this Article V are void or unenforceable for any reason.

5.9 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article V shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Section 5.11 and Article VIII, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

5.10 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of Parent and SpinCo and their respective Indemnitees under this Article V shall survive (a) the sale or other transfer by either Party or any member of its Group of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities; or (b) any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of all or substantially all of its Assets, restructuring, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction involving either Party or any of the members of its Group.

5.11 Management of Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Schedule 5.11 shall govern the direction of pending and future Actions in which members of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group are named as parties, but shall not alter the allocation of Liabilities set forth in Article II unless expressly set forth in Schedule 5.11.

ARTICLE VI

CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS

6.1 SpinCo Financial Covenants. SpinCo agrees that, for so long as Parent is required to consolidate the results of operations and financial position of SpinCo and any other members of the SpinCo Group or to account for its investment in SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group under the equity method of accounting (determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and consistent with SEC reporting requirements):

Parent and SpinCo will make reasonable efforts to coordinate the issuance of their respective quarterly earnings releases. No later than seventy-two (72) hours prior to the time and date that SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, intends to publish its regular quarterly earnings release or any financial guidance for a current or future period, SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, will deliver to the other party copies of drafts of (i) all press releases, (ii) investor presentations and (iii) other statements to be made available to its employees or to the public, in each case, concerning any matters that could be reasonably likely to have a material financial impact on the earnings, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of any member of the SpinCo Group and/or the Parent Group. No later than twenty-four (24) hours prior to the time and date that SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, intends to publish its regular quarterly earnings release or any financial guidance for a current or future period, SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, will deliver to the other copies of substantially final drafts of all such materials. In addition, prior to the issuance of any such press release, investor presentation or public statement that meets the criteria set forth in the preceding two sentences, SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, will consult with the other regarding any changes (other than typographical or other similar minor changes) to such substantially final drafts. Immediately following the issuance thereof, SpinCo or Parent, as the case may be, will deliver to the other copies of final drafts of all press releases, investor presentations and such other public statements.

(i) Cooperation on Parent Filings. SpinCo will cooperate fully, and cause SpinCo’s independent certified public accountants (the “SpinCo Auditors”) to cooperate fully, with Parent to the extent requested by Parent in the preparation of Parent’s public earnings or other press releases, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports to Shareholders, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, any Current Reports on Form 8-K and any other proxy, information and registration statements, reports, notices, prospectuses and any other filings made by Parent with the SEC, the Canadian Securities Authorities or any national securities exchange or otherwise made publicly available (collectively, the “Parent Public Filings”). SpinCo is responsible for the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with Parent’s policies with respect to the application of GAAP and shall indemnify Parent for any Liabilities it shall incur with respect to the inaccuracy

-57-

of such statements. As long as Parent is required to consolidate the results of operations and financial position of SpinCo in its financial statements, SpinCo will continue to prepare the quarterly and annual financial reporting analysis and provide support for financial statement footnotes and other information included in the Parent Public Filings. Such information and the timing thereof will be consistent with the Parent financial statement processes in place prior to the Separation Time. SpinCo also agrees to provide to Parent all other information that Parent reasonably requests in connection with any Parent Public Filings or that, in the judgment of Parent’s legal department, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under any Law. SpinCo will provide such information in a timely manner on the dates requested by Parent (which may be earlier than the dates on which SpinCo otherwise would be required hereunder to have such information available) to enable Parent to prepare, print and release all Parent Public Filings on such dates as Parent will determine, but in no event later than as required by applicable Law. SpinCo will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the SpinCo Auditors to consent to any reference to them as experts in any Parent Public Filings required under any Law. If and to the extent requested by Parent, SpinCo will diligently and promptly review all drafts of such Parent Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such Parent Public Filing pertaining to SpinCo. SpinCo management’s responsibility for reviewing such disclosures shall include a determination that such disclosures are complete and accurate and consistent with other public filings or other disclosures which have been made by SpinCo. Prior to any printing or public release of any Parent Public Filing, an appropriate executive officer of SpinCo will, if requested by Parent, certify that the information relating to any member of the SpinCo Group in such Parent Public Filing is accurate, true, complete and correct in all material respects. Unless required by applicable Law, SpinCo will not publicly release any financial or other information which conflicts with the information with respect to any member of the SpinCo Group that is included in any Parent Public Filing without Parent’s prior written consent. Prior to the release or filing thereof (but in any event, to the extent reasonably practicable, no later than 24 hours before such release or filing), Parent will provide SpinCo with a draft of any portion of a Parent Public Filing containing information relating to the SpinCo Group and will give SpinCo an opportunity to review such information and comment thereon; provided, that Parent will determine in its sole discretion the final form and content of all Parent Public Filings.

(j) For the avoidance of doubt, SpinCo’s requirements under this Section 6.1 will continue until the reporting for all interim and annual financial statement periods during which Parent was required to consolidate the results of operations and financial position of SpinCo and any other members of the SpinCo Group or to account for its investment in SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group under the equity method of accounting (determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and consistent with SEC reporting requirements) has been completed. For example, if SpinCo ceases to be such consolidated subsidiary or such equity method affiliate of Parent on September 30, SpinCo’s obligations with regard to information required for Parent’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31 will remain in effect until such Form 10-K has been filed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent may, in its sole discretion by providing written notice to SpinCo in accordance with Section 11.5, suspend any of Parent’s rights under this Section 6.1 or otherwise under this Agreement to receive any non-public information that could reasonably be expected to be material to SpinCo (provided, that Parent may revoke such notice at any time by delivering notice in writing, upon which point all such rights shall be reinstated as of the date of delivery of written notice of revocation to SpinCo and SpinCo shall resume complying with its suspended obligations).

-58-

6.2 Auditors and Audits; Annual Financial Statements and Accounting. SpinCo agrees that, for so long as Parent is required to consolidate the results of operations and financial position of SpinCo and any other members of the SpinCo Group or to account for its investment in SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group under the equity method of accounting (determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and consistent with SEC reporting requirements):

(a) Auditor. No member of the SpinCo Group shall change its independent auditors without Parent’s prior written consent (which should not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) Audit Timing. SpinCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to enable Parent to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of Parent’s audited annual financial statements (the “Parent Annual Statements”), all in accordance with Section 6.1 hereof and as required by applicable Law.

(c) Information Needed by Parent. SpinCo shall provide to Parent on a timely basis all information that Parent reasonably requires to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of the Parent Annual Statements in accordance with Section 6.1 hereof and as required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SpinCo will provide all required financial information with respect to the SpinCo Group to the SpinCo Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit the SpinCo Auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to the independent auditors of Parent (“Parent Auditors”) with respect to information to be included or contained in the Parent Annual Statements.

(d) Access to the SpinCo Auditors. SpinCo shall authorize the SpinCo Auditors to make available to the Parent Auditors both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit of SpinCo and work papers related to the annual audit of SpinCo, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to the SpinCo Auditors’ opinion date, so that the Parent Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the SpinCo Auditors as it relates to the Parent Auditors’ report on Parent’s statements, all within sufficient time to enable Parent to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Parent Annual Statements.

(e) Access to Records. If Parent determines in good faith that there may be some inaccuracy in a SpinCo Group member’s financial statements or deficiency in a SpinCo Group member’s internal accounting controls or operations that could materially impact Parent’s financial statements, at Parent’s request, SpinCo will provide Parent’s internal auditors with access to the SpinCo Group’s books and records so that Parent may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by SpinCo under this Agreement as well as to the internal accounting controls and operations of the SpinCo Group.

(f) Notice of Changes. Subject to Section 6.1(g), SpinCo will give Parent as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of any proposed determination of, or any significant changes in, SpinCo’s accounting estimates or accounting principles from those in effect on the IPO Closing Date. On request of Parent, SpinCo will discuss the determination or change with Parent and, if requested by Parent, with the Parent Auditors with respect thereto. Unless such determination or change is required by GAAP, SpinCo will not make any such determination or changes without Parent’s prior written consent if either (1) such a determination or a change would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in Parent’s financial statements as filed with

-59-

the SEC or the Canadian Securities Authorities or otherwise publicly disclosed therein, or (2) such a determination or a change is not in accordance with GAAP and would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in SpinCo’s financial statements as filed with the SEC or the Canadian Securities Authorities or otherwise publicly disclosed therein. SpinCo will give Parent as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of any business combination, the acquisition of any variable interest entities or any other transaction, in each case, which could reasonably be expected to result in the consolidation by Parent of the results of operations and financial position of an entity that is not a member of the SpinCo Group.

(g) Accounting Changes Requested by Parent. Notwithstanding Section 6.2(f), Parent may request that SpinCo make changes in its accounting estimates or accounting principles in order for SpinCo’s accounting practices and principles to be consistent with those of Parent; provided that SpinCo shall not be required to make any such changes if SpinCo’s accounting estimates or accounting principles are in accordance with GAAP and consistent with SEC reporting requirements.

(h) Special Reports of Deficiencies or Violations. SpinCo will report in reasonable detail to Parent the following events or circumstances promptly after any executive officer of SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Board becomes aware of such matter: (A) all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect SpinCo’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in SpinCo’s internal control over financial reporting; (C) any illegal act within the meaning of Section 10A(b) and (f) of the Exchange Act; and (D) any report of a material violation of Law that an attorney representing any member of the SpinCo Group has formally made to any officers or directors of SpinCo pursuant to the SEC’s attorney conduct rules (17 C.F.R. Part 205).

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, SpinCo’s requirements under this Section 6.2 will continue until the reporting for all interim and annual financial statement periods during which Parent was required to consolidate the results of operations and financial position of SpinCo and any other members of the SpinCo Group or to account for its investment in SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group under the equity method of accounting (determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and consistent with SEC reporting requirements) has been completed. For example, if SpinCo ceases to be such consolidated subsidiary or such equity method affiliate of Parent on September 30, SpinCo’s obligations with regard to information required for Parent’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31 will remain in effect until such Form 10-K has been filed.

6.3 Parent Financial Information Certifications. Parent’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as each is contemplated by the Exchange Act) are currently applicable to SpinCo as its Subsidiary. In order to enable the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of SpinCo to make the certifications required

-60-

of them under Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 following the IPO Closing Date in respect of any quarterly or annual fiscal period of SpinCo that begins prior to the IPO Closing Date in respect of which financial statements are not included in the IPO Registration Statement (a “Straddle Period”), Parent, on or before the date that is ten (10) days prior to the latest date on which SpinCo may file the periodic report pursuant to Section 13 of the Exchange Act for any such Straddle Period (not taking into account any possible extensions), shall provide SpinCo with one or more certifications with respect to such disclosure controls and procedures and the effectiveness thereof and whether there were any changes in the internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the internal control over financing reporting, which certification(s) shall be (a) with respect to the applicable Straddle Period (it being understood that no certification need be provided with respect to any period or portion of any period after the IPO Closing Date) and (b) in substantially the same form as those that had been provided by officers or employees of Parent in similar certifications delivered prior to the IPO Closing Date, with such changes thereto as Parent may reasonably determine. Such certification(s) shall be provided by Parent (and not by any officer or employee in their individual capacity).

6.4 Covenants Relating to the Incurrence of Indebtedness.

(a) For so long as Parent beneficially owns at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of SpinCo’s outstanding share capital entitled to vote in the election of the SpinCo Board, SpinCo will not, and SpinCo will not permit any other member of the SpinCo Group to, without the Parent Board’s approval (which the Parent Board may withhold in its sole discretion), directly or indirectly: (i) incur any SpinCo Indebtedness (other than the SpinCo Financing Arrangements and any refinancing or other amendment or modification thereto (provided, that such refinancing or other amendment or modification does not result in an increase in the aggregate principal amount (or, if greater, committed amount) thereunder (taking into account all amounts incurred thereunder, as applicable), which incremental increase (other than to pay premiums (including tender premiums), accrued and unpaid interest, expenses, defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith) shall be taken into account for purposes of this clause (i)) in an aggregate amount of less than or equal to $100 million in a manner inconsistent with Section 6.4(b), and (ii) incur any SpinCo Indebtedness (other than the SpinCo Financing Arrangements and any refinancing or other amendment or modification thereto (provided, that such refinancing or other amendment or modification does not result in an increase in the aggregate principal amount (or, if greater, committed amount) thereunder (taking into account all amounts incurred thereunder, as applicable), which incremental increase (other than to pay premiums (including tender premiums), accrued and unpaid interest, expenses, defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith) shall be taken into account for purposes of this clause (ii)) in excess of an aggregate amount of $100 million.

(b) For so long as Parent beneficially owns at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of SpinCo’s outstanding share capital entitled to vote in the election of the SpinCo Board, SpinCo will not, and SpinCo will not permit any other member of the SpinCo Group to, without Parent’s prior written consent (which Parent may withhold in its sole discretion), directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any SpinCo Indebtedness (other than the SpinCo Financing Arrangements and any refinancing or other amendment or modification thereto (provided, that such refinancing or other amendment or modification does not result in an

-61-

increase in the aggregate principal amount (or, if greater, committed amount) thereunder (taking into account all amounts incurred thereunder, as applicable), which incremental increase (other than to pay premiums (including tender premiums), accrued and unpaid interest, expenses, defeasance costs and fees in connection therewith) shall be taken into account for purposes of this clause (b)) if the incurrence of such SpinCo Indebtedness would cause Parent to be in breach of or in default under any contract the existence of which Parent has advised SpinCo, or if the incurrence of such SpinCo Indebtedness could be reasonably likely to adversely impact the credit rating of any commercial indebtedness of Parent.

(c) In order to implement this Section 6.4, SpinCo will notify Parent in writing at least thirty (30) Business Days (or such shorter period as mutually agreed upon in writing between Parent and SpinCo) prior to the time it or any other member of the SpinCo Group contemplates incurring any SpinCo Indebtedness (excluding the SpinCo Financing Arrangements (but including any refinancing or other amendment or modification thereto)) of its intention to do so and will either (x) demonstrate to Parent’s satisfaction that this Section 6.4 will not be violated by such proposed additional SpinCo Indebtedness or (y) obtain Parent’s prior written consent to the incurrence of such proposed additional SpinCo Indebtedness. Any such written notification from SpinCo to Parent will include documentation of any existing SpinCo Indebtedness and estimated SpinCo Indebtedness after giving effect to such proposed incurrence of additional SpinCo Indebtedness. Parent will have the right to verify the accuracy of such information and SpinCo will cooperate fully with Parent in such effort (including, without limitation, by providing Parent with access to the working papers and underlying documentation related to any calculations used in determining such information).

6.5 Other Covenants.

(a) For so long as Parent beneficially owns at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of SpinCo’s outstanding share capital entitled to vote in the election of the SpinCo Board:

(i) SpinCo will not, without the prior written consent of Parent (which Parent may withhold in its sole discretion), take, or cause to be taken, directly or indirectly, any action, including making or failing to make any election under the Law of any state, which has the effect, directly or indirectly, of restricting or limiting the ability of Parent to freely sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of Initial Common Shares or Resulting Entity Common Shares, as applicable, or would restrict or limit the rights of any transferee of Parent as a holder of Initial Common Shares or Resulting Entity Common Shares, as applicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SpinCo will not, without the prior written consent of Parent (which Parent may withhold in its sole discretion), take any action, or take any action to recommend to its shareholders any action, which would among other things, limit the legal rights of, or deny any benefit to, Parent as a SpinCo shareholder either (i) solely as a result of the amount of Initial Common Shares or Resulting Entity Common Shares, as applicable, owned by Parent or (ii) in a manner not applicable to SpinCo shareholders generally.

-62-

(ii) To the extent that Parent is a party to any contract that provides that certain actions or inactions of Affiliates of Parent (which for purposes of such contract includes any member of the SpinCo Group) may result in Parent being in breach of or in default under such contract and Parent has advised SpinCo of the existence, and has furnished SpinCo with copies, of such contracts (or the relevant portions thereof), SpinCo will not take or fail to take, as applicable, and SpinCo will cause the other members of the SpinCo Group not to take or fail to take, as applicable, any actions that reasonably could result in Parent being in breach of or in default under any such contract. The parties acknowledge and agree that from time to time Parent may in good faith (and not solely with the intention of imposing restrictions on SpinCo pursuant to this covenant) enter into additional contracts or amendments to existing contracts that provide that certain actions or inactions of members of the Parent Group (including, for purposes of this Section 6.5(a)(ii), members of the SpinCo Group) may result in Parent being in breach of or in default under such contracts. In such event, provided Parent has notified SpinCo of such additional contracts or amendments to existing contracts, SpinCo will not thereafter take or fail to take, as applicable, and SpinCo will cause the other members of the SpinCo Group not to take or fail to take, as applicable, any actions that reasonably could result in Parent being in breach of or in default under any such additional contracts or amendments to existing contracts. Parent acknowledges and agrees that SpinCo will not be deemed in breach of this Section 6.5(a)(ii) to the extent that, prior to being notified by Parent of an additional contract or an amendment to an existing contract pursuant to this Section 6.5(a)(ii), a member of the SpinCo Group already has taken or failed to take one or more actions that would otherwise constitute a breach of this Section 6.5(a)(ii) had such action(s) or inaction(s) occurred after such notification, provided, that SpinCo does not, after notification by Parent, take any further action or fail to take any action that contributes further to such breach or default. SpinCo agrees that any information provided to it pursuant to this Section 6.5(a)(ii) will constitute information that is subject to SpinCo’s obligations under Article VII.

(iii) SpinCo will not, and SpinCo will not permit any other member of the SpinCo Group to, without the Parent Board’s approval (which the Parent Board may withhold in its sole discretion), directly or indirectly, (A) acquire any other businesses or assets or dispose of any of its own assets, in each case with an aggregate value for all such transactions in excess of $200 million or (B) acquire or agree to acquire any share, shares or other interest in any company, partnership or other venture, whether by way of a purchase of stock or securities, contributions to capital, or otherwise, or the loaning of any funds to third parties, in each case, in excess of $200 million in the aggregate.

(b) For so long as Parent beneficially owns at least 80.1% of the total voting power of the SpinCo Share Capital entitled to vote in the election of the SpinCo Board and at least 80.1% of the number of shares of each class of SpinCo Share Capital not entitled to vote in the election of SpinCo directors, SpinCo will not, without the prior written consent of Parent (which it may withhold in its sole discretion), issue, or enter into any agreement, commitment or understanding to issue (or that could result in the issuance of), any shares of SpinCo Share Capital or any rights, warrants or options to acquire SpinCo Share Capital (including, without limitation, securities convertible into or exchangeable for SpinCo Share Capital), if after giving effect to such issuances and considering all of the shares of SpinCo Share Capital acquirable pursuant to such rights, warrants and options to be outstanding on the date of such issuance (whether or not then exercisable), Parent could own (a) less than 80.1% of the total voting power of the outstanding shares of SpinCo Share Capital entitled to vote in the election of SpinCo directors, (b) less than 80.1% of the outstanding shares of any class of SpinCo Share Capital not entitled to vote in the election of SpinCo directors, or (c) less than 80.1% of the value of the outstanding shares of SpinCo Share Capital.

-63-

(c) SpinCo will not, and will not permit any other member of the SpinCo Group to, take any action or fail to take any action that could reasonably be expected to prevent the Separation and the Distribution from qualifying as a tax-free transaction to Parent, SpinCo and Parent’s shareholders for U.S. federal or Canadian income tax purposes.

6.6 Product Names and Untransferred Product Codes Following the Separation.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 6.6(b) below, neither SpinCo nor any member of its Group shall use, or have the right to use, the Parent Retained Marks or the Untransferred SpinCo Product Codes.

(b) Following the Separation Time, SpinCo and members of its Group may continue temporarily to use the Parent Retained Marks and Untransferred SpinCo Product Codes after the Separation Time solely to the extent and in substantially the same manner as used immediately prior to Separation Time in connection with (i) the marketing and sale of any SpinCo Inventory that, as of the Separation Time, bears or incorporates the Parent Retained Marks and/or Untransferred SpinCo Product Codes, until such time as usable SpinCo Inventory existing as of the Separation Time has been exhausted; (ii) the manufacture of SpinCo Products that are made with the raw materials, work-in-process or components that constitute SpinCo Inventory, in each case, as of the Separation Time; and (iii) the use of any advertising, marketing, sales and promotional materials that bear the Parent Retained Marks and/or Untransferred SpinCo Product Codes, until such time as SpinCo can create new advertising, marketing, sales and promotional materials; provided, that SpinCo and members of its Group use reasonable best efforts to minimize and eliminate use of the Parent Retained Marks and Untransferred SpinCo Product Codes by the SpinCo Group as soon as practicable. All permitted use of the Parent Retained Marks and any goodwill established in connection therewith will inure to the exclusive benefit of Parent or a member of the Parent Group. The Parent Retained Marks and all of the goodwill associated therewith are and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Parent or a member of the Parent Group.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 6.6(d) below, neither Parent nor any member of its Group shall use, or have the right to use, the SpinCo Product Marks or the Untransferred Parent Product Codes.

(d) Following the Separation Time, Parent and members of its Group may continue temporarily to use the SpinCo Product Marks and the Untransferred Parent Product Codes after the Separation Time) solely to the extent and in substantially the same manner as used immediately prior to Separation Time in connection with (i) the marketing and sale of any Parent Inventory that, as of the Separation Time, bears or incorporates the SpinCo Product Marks and/or the Untransferred Parent Product Codes, until such time as such usable Parent Inventory existing as of the Separation Time has been exhausted; (ii) the manufacture of Parent Products that are made with the raw materials, work-in-process or components that constitute Parent Inventory, in

-64-

each case, as of the Separation Time; and (iii) the use of any advertising, marketing, sales and promotional materials that bear the SpinCo Marks and/or Untransferred Parent Product Codes, until such time as SpinCo can create new advertising, marketing, sales and promotional materials; provided, that Parent and members of its Group use reasonable best efforts to minimize and eliminate use of the SpinCo Product Marks and the Untransferred Parent Product Codes by the Parent Group as soon as practicable. All permitted use of the SpinCo Marks and any goodwill established in connection therewith will inure to the exclusive benefit of SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group. The SpinCo Marks and all of the goodwill associated therewith are and will remain the sole and exclusive property of SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.6, nothing set forth in this Section 6.6 shall limit either Party’s nominative use of the SpinCo Product Marks (in the case of Parent) or the Parent Retained Marks (in the case of SpinCo), respectively, including for the purposes of referring to the other Party’s products and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(f) Nothing set forth in this Section 6.6 is intended to affect the Parties’ rights and obligations with respect to the Bausch Marks or related Internet Properties, which rights and obligations are dealt with exclusively in the IP Matters Agreement.

6.7 Insurance Matters.

(a) Parent and SpinCo agree to cooperate in good faith to provide for an orderly transition of insurance coverage from the date hereof through the Distribution Date. In no event shall Parent, any other member of the Parent Group or any Parent Indemnitee have Liability or obligation whatsoever to any member of the SpinCo Group arising from the fact that any insurance policy or insurance policy related contract shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason, shall be unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of any member of the SpinCo Group for any reason whatsoever or shall not be renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

(b) Parent and SpinCo acknowledge that, prior to the Distribution Date, Parent intends to take such action, in its sole discretion as it may deem necessary or desirable, to remove the members of the SpinCo Group and their respective employees, officers and directors as insured parties, or limit the coverage provided to such parties, under some or all Policies issued to the Parent Group. The date(s) on which Parent removes the members of the SpinCo Group and their respective employees, officers and directors as insured parties, or limits the coverage provided to such parties, under a particular Policy or Policies shall constitute the “Insurance Termination Time” for such Policy or Policies. SpinCo further acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the applicable Insurance Termination Time for a particular Policy, neither SpinCo nor any member of the SpinCo Group shall have any rights to or under such Policy other than as expressly provided in Section 6.7(d) and Section 6.7(e).

(c) At the applicable Insurance Termination Time, SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to place in effect all insurance programs required to comply with SpinCo’s contractual obligations and such other Policies required by Law or as reasonably necessary or appropriate for companies operating a business similar to SpinCo’s. With respect to such provided policies, if any, procured by SpinCo for the sole benefit of the SpinCo Group (“SpinCo Policies”), SpinCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to maintain such insurance coverage through the Distribution Date in a manner no less favorable than currently provided.

-65-

(d) From and after the applicable Insurance Termination Time for a particular Policy, with respect to any losses, damages and Liability incurred by any member of the SpinCo Group prior to such Insurance Termination Time only, Parent will provide SpinCo with access to, and SpinCo may make claims under, such Parent Group Policy in place immediately prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time (and any extended reporting periods for claims-made Policies) and the Parent Group’s historical Policies, but solely to the extent that such Policies provided coverage for members of the SpinCo Group or the SpinCo Business prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time; provided, that such access to, and the right to make claims under, such Policies shall be subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of such Policies, including but not limited to any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles, self-insured retentions and other fees and expenses, and shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) SpinCo shall notify Parent, as promptly as practicable, of any claim made by the SpinCo Group pursuant to this Section 6.7(d);

(ii) SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse Parent and the members of the Parent Group for any deductibles, self-insured retention, fees, indemnity payments, settlements, judgments, legal fees, allocated claims expenses and claim handling fees, retrospective premiums, captive reinsurance, matching deductibles, collateral obligations, indemnity agreements, and other expenses incurred by Parent or any members of the Parent Group to the extent resulting from any access to, or any claims made by SpinCo or any other members of the SpinCo Group under, any insurance (including any self-insured program) provided pursuant to this Section 6.7(d), whether such claims are made by SpinCo, its employees or third Persons;

(iii) SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group shall comply fully with the Assumption and Allocation Agreement; and

(iv) SpinCo shall exclusively bear (and neither Parent nor any members of the Parent Group shall have any obligation to repay or reimburse SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group for) and shall be liable for all excluded, uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts of all such claims made by SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group under the Policies as provided for in this Section 6.7(d). In the event an insurance policy aggregate is exhausted, or believed likely to be exhausted, due to noticed claims, the SpinCo Group, on the one hand, the Parent Group, on the other hand, shall be responsible for their pro rata portion of the reinstatement premium, if any, based upon the losses of such Group submitted to Parent’s insurance carrier(s) (including any submissions prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time). To the extent that the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group is allocated more than its pro rata portion of such premium due to the timing of losses submitted to Parent’s insurance carrier(s), the other Party shall promptly pay the first Party an amount such that each Group has been properly allocated its pro rata portion of the reinstatement premium. Subject to the following sentence, a Party may elect not to reinstate the policy aggregate. In the event that a Party elects not to reinstate the policy aggregate, it shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party. A Party which elects to reinstate the policy aggregate shall be responsible for all reinstatement premiums and other costs associated with such reinstatement.

-66-

In the event that any member of the Parent Group incurs any losses, damages or Liability prior to or in respect of the period prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time for which such member of the Parent Group is entitled to coverage under SpinCo’s Policies, the same process pursuant to this Section 6.7(d) shall apply, substituting “Parent” for “SpinCo” and “SpinCo” for “Parent,” including for purposes of the first sentence of Section 6.7(f).

(e) For six (6) years after the applicable Insurance Termination Time for officers’ and directors’ liability insurance, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide officers’ and directors’ liability insurance in respect of (i) acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time for such Policies and (ii) the Separation and the IPO, covering each of the present and former officers and directors of Parent and SpinCo and each of their Subsidiaries currently covered by Parent’s officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policies, on terms with respect to coverage and amount reasonably comparable to those of such policies as are in effect as of the applicable Insurance Termination Time with respect to Parent’s then-current officers and directors, to the extent reasonably available in the commercial insurance market, with sixty-seven percent (67%) of the cost of such insurance deemed a Parent Liability and thirty-three percent (33%) of the cost of such insurance deemed a SpinCo Liability. Parent and SpinCo shall comply with all conditions in Section 6.7(d) with respect to claims made under the Policies referenced in this Section 6.7(e).

(f) Neither SpinCo nor any member of the SpinCo Group, in connection with making a claim under any insurance policy of Parent or any member of the Parent Group pursuant to this Section 6.7, shall take any action that would be reasonably likely to (i) have a material and adverse impact on the then-current relationship between Parent or any member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and the applicable insurance company, broker or third-party claims administrator, on the other hand; (ii) result in the applicable insurance company terminating or materially reducing coverage, or materially increasing the amount of any premium owed by Parent or any member of the Parent Group under the applicable insurance policy; or (iii) otherwise compromise, jeopardize or interfere in any material respect with the rights of Parent or any member of the Parent Group under the applicable insurance policy.

(g) All payments and reimbursements by SpinCo pursuant to this Section 6.7 will be made within forty-five (45) days after SpinCo’s receipt of an invoice therefor from Parent, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties. If Parent incurs costs to enforce SpinCo’s obligations herein, SpinCo agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Parent for such enforcement costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, pursuant to Section 5.6(b). Parent shall retain the exclusive right to control its Policies and programs, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its Policies and programs and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such Policies and programs, notwithstanding whether any such Policies or programs apply to any SpinCo Liabilities and/or claims SpinCo has made or could make in the future, and no member of the SpinCo Group shall erode, exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with Parent’s insurers with respect to any

-67-

of Parent’s Policies and programs, or amend, modify or waive any rights under any such Policies and programs. SpinCo shall cooperate with Parent and share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit Parent to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Parent deems appropriate. Neither Parent nor any member of the Parent Group shall have any obligation to secure extended reporting for any claims under any Policies of Parent or any member of the Parent Group for any acts or omissions by any member of the SpinCo Group incurred prior to the applicable Insurance Termination Time. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party and any member of its applicable Group has the sole right to settle or otherwise resolve third party claims made against it or any member of its applicable Group covered under an applicable insurance Policy.

(h) This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the Parent Group in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

(i) SpinCo does hereby, for itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group, agree that no member of the Parent Group shall have any Liability whatsoever as a result of the Policies and practices of Parent and the members of the Parent Group as in effect at any time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy, or the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim or otherwise.

6.8 Late Payments. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, any amount not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (and any amounts billed or otherwise invoiced or demanded and properly payable that are not paid within sixty (60) days of such xxxx, invoice or other demand) shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus two (2%) percent; provided, that with respect to any disputed payments, no interest payment shall be due until such dispute is resolved and the interest which shall be payable thereon shall be based on the finally-resolved amount of such payment, calculated from the original date on which the disputed payment was due through the date on which payment is actually made.

6.9 Inducement. SpinCo acknowledges and agrees that Parent’s willingness to cause, effect and consummate the Transactions has been conditioned upon and induced by SpinCo’s covenants and agreements in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including SpinCo’s assumption of the SpinCo Liabilities pursuant to the Separation and the provisions of this Agreement and SpinCo’s covenants and agreements contained in Article V and Article VI.

6.10 Post-Separation Time Conduct. The Parties acknowledge that, after the Separation Time, each Party shall be independent of the other Party, with responsibility for its own actions and inactions and its own Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of its business, operations and activities following the Separation Time, except as may otherwise be provided in any Ancillary Agreement, and each Party shall (except as otherwise provided in Article V) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent such Liabilities from being inappropriately borne by the other Party.

-68-

6.11 Director Elections. At all times from the date of Separation Date until the earliest of (x) the Distribution Date, (y) December 31, 2024 and (z) the date on which Parent ceases to beneficially own at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of SpinCo’s outstanding share capital entitled to vote in the election of the SpinCo Board:

(a) SpinCo shall not, without the prior written consent of the Parent Board (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (i) propose or, subject only to applicable Law, name in any information circular, proxy or written consent of shareholders, any nominee for election to the SpinCo Board at any meeting of shareholders of SpinCo (including in any written consent of shareholders) other than a SpinCo director set forth in the Form S-1 Registration Statement filed by SpinCo on January 13, 2022, designated pursuant to, or otherwise to comply with, a contract or agreement entered into on or prior to the Separation Time or who has otherwise been appointed in accordance with clause (ii) of this Section 6.11(a) (including the proviso thereto); or (ii) appoint any person to the SpinCo Board (whether to fill a vacancy or otherwise) other than pursuant to, or otherwise to comply with, a contract or agreement entered into on or prior to the Separation Time; provided, however, that notwithstanding clause (ii) of this Section 6.11(a), SpinCo may appoint one additional director to the SpinCo Board without Parent’s consent prior to the first annual meeting of shareholders of SpinCo following the Separation Time where such additional director qualifies as a medical expert, as determined by the SpinCo Board, acting reasonably; and

(b) all voting decisions made by or on behalf of Parent (including, for clarity, any such action taken by or on behalf of NumberCo, and the granting of any proxy) with respect to the SpinCo Common Shares beneficially owned by Parent and any other voting securities of SpinCo beneficially owned by Parent and entitled to vote at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of SpinCo (however noticed or called, and including any action by written consent) shall have previously been approved by the Parent Board.

ARTICLE VII

EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY

7.1 Agreement for Exchange of Information. Subject to Section 7.10 and any other applicable confidentiality obligations, each of Parent and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and each member of its Group, agrees to use reasonable best efforts to provide or make available, or cause to be provided or made available, to the other Party and the members of such other Party’s Group, at any time before, on or after the Separation Time, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor is received by such Party’s legal department from the requesting Party’s legal department, any information (or a copy thereof) in the possession, custody or control of such Party or its Group which the requesting Party’s legal department requests (including any SpinCo Books and Records or Parent Books and Records, as applicable, and any information held by a third-party on such Party’s or a member of its Group’s behalf) to the extent that (i) such information relates to the SpinCo Business, or any SpinCo Asset or SpinCo Liability, if SpinCo is the requesting Party, or to the Parent Business, or any Parent Asset or Parent Liability, if Parent is the requesting Party (including, for the avoidance of doubt, such information the requesting Party reasonably believes is relevant to the requesting Party’s claim or defense in ongoing or anticipated litigation or other

-69-

legal proceeding and would be proportional to the needs of the matter); (ii) such information is required by the requesting Party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; (iii) such information is required by the requesting Party to comply with any obligation, audit, inspection, inquiry, or request from any Governmental Authority; or (iv) such information is required by the requesting Party to comply with any obligation imposed by a court order or any other compulsory legal process; provided, however, that, in the event that the Party to whom the request has been made determines that any such provision of information could be detrimental to the Party providing the information, violate any Law or agreement, or waive any privilege available under applicable Law, including any attorney-client privilege, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit compliance with such obligations to the extent and in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence (including by way of redaction). The Party providing information pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall only be obligated to provide such information in the form, condition and format in which it then exists; provided, however, that in the event (x) it is reasonably necessary for the purpose the requesting Party needs such information that such information be in a form, condition or format different from which it then exists and (y) the requesting Party is unable to modify the form, condition or format of such information without incurring costs and expenses materially in excess of the costs and expenses that would be incurred if the Party providing such information were to modify the form, condition or format of such information, then the Party providing such information will use commercially reasonable efforts at the requesting Party’s sole cost and expense to provide such information in a form, condition and format requested by the requesting Party, consistent with the requesting Party’s need for the information, including the requesting Party’s legal obligation to retain, produce, or provide the information in a particular form, condition or format. Each Party shall cause its employees and the employees of any members of its Group to, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the employees of its Representatives to, when on the property of another Party or a member of another Party’s Group, conform to the policies and procedures of such Party or any member of such Party’s Group concerning health, safety, conduct and security that are made known or provided to the accessing Party from time to time. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Separation Time, Parent and SpinCo shall agree to a plan with respect to the maintenance and transfer of data that constitutes SpinCo Books and Records and discuss and negotiate such plan in good faith, including whether to further catalog or inventory any data sources that may contain entangled data of both the SpinCo Group and Parent Group or transfer any such material to the other Party or its Group. Each Party may retain copies of information delivered to the other hereunder, subject to holding such information in confidence in accordance with this Agreement.

7.2 Ownership of Information. The provision of any information pursuant to Section 7.1 or Section 7.8 shall not affect the ownership of such information (which shall be determined solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements), or constitute a grant of rights in or to any such information.

7.3 Compensation for Providing Information. The Party requesting information agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable costs, if any, of creating, gathering, copying, transporting, redacting and otherwise complying with the request with respect to such information (including any reasonable costs and expenses incurred in any review of information for purposes of protecting the Privileged Information of the providing Party or in connection with the restoration of backup media for purposes of providing the requested information). Except as may be otherwise specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties, such costs shall be computed in accordance with the providing Party’s standard methodology and procedures.

7.4 Record Retention.

(a) To facilitate the possible exchange of information pursuant to this Article VII and other provisions of this Agreement after the Separation Time, from and after the Separation Time until the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the Separation Time (or such longer time as required by applicable Law), the Parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts, which shall be no less rigorous than those used for retention of such Party’s own information, to retain all information related to the SpinCo Business, or any SpinCo Asset or SpinCo Liability (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the SpinCo Books and Records), in the case of Parent, or to the Parent Business, or any Parent Asset or Parent Liability (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parent Books and Records), in the case of SpinCo in their respective possession, custody or control as of the Separation Time (including any information that is subject to a “Legal Hold” or “Litigation Hold” issued by either Party prior to the Separation Time, or issued by a Party after the Separation Time to the extent the other Party has knowledge thereof (in either case, a “Litigation Hold”)) in accordance with their respective policies regarding retention of records (which policies, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not supersede the twelve-year term set forth in this Section 7.4(a)); provided, however, that (x) in the case of any such information relating to Taxes, such retention period shall be extended to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any extensions thereof), (y) in the case of any such information that is subject to a Litigation Hold, such information shall be retained until the release of the Litigation Hold by the issuing Party or Parties and (z) in the case of any such information required to be retained for a period longer than the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the Separation Time by applicable Law, such retention period shall be extended to the expiration of the period so required. No Party will knowingly destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any information which the other Party may have the right to obtain pursuant to this Agreement (including the SpinCo Books and Records and Parent Books and Records) prior to the end of the retention period set forth in this Section 7.4(a). Notwithstanding anything in this Article VII to the contrary, the Tax Matters Agreement exclusively governs the retention of Tax related records and the exchange of Tax-related information, and the Employee Matters Agreement governs the retention of employment and benefits related records; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Matters Agreement and the Employee Matters Agreement shall not supersede either Party’s obligation with respect to information subject to a Litigation Hold.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, following the end of the retention period set forth in Section 7.4(a), neither Party may destroy, or permit any members of its Group to destroy, any information contemplated to be retained by Section 7.4(a) (including the SpinCo Books and Records and Parent Books and Records) without first providing written notice to the General Counsel or Chief Legal Officer of the other Party of the proposed destruction of information, including a reasonably detailed description of the information proposed for destruction, and providing the other Party the opportunity to take possession of such information prior to such destruction, at such other Party’s sole cost and expense; provided that (i) in the case of any information relating to a pending or threatened Action that is known to a member of the applicable Party’s Group in possession of such information, the Parties shall comply with the requirements of the applicable “Litigation Hold”; and (ii) in no event shall a Party knowingly destroy, or permit any of the members of its Group to destroy, any information required to be retained by applicable Law.

-71-

7.5 Legal Materials. All legal files, documents and other information created prior to the Separation Time (the “Legal Materials”) not separated as of the Separation Time shall be deemed “Joint Legal Materials”. Both Parties’ legal counsel will have the right, from and after the Separation Time, (a) to access, review and duplicate all Joint Legal Materials in the possession, custody, or control of the other that relate to their respective legal matters and (b) only with the consent of the other party, at the requesting party’s sole cost and expense, to separate and take sole possession of Joint Legal Materials relating solely to either the Parent Business or the SpinCo Business, as applicable. Parent and SpinCo shall cause their respective legal counsel to maintain and continue their respective Group’s compliance with all “Litigation Holds” applicable to any Legal Materials, Joint Legal Materials, or materials subject to Litigation Hold they possess or come to possess. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the party designated to direct the defense or prosecution of any Action pursuant to Section 5.11 shall be entitled to have and retain possession and own the Legal Materials related to such Action.

7.6 Limitations of Liability. Neither Party shall have any Liability to the other Party arising from the fact that any information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement is found to be inaccurate in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by the Party providing such information. Neither Party shall have any Liability to any other Party if any information is destroyed after commercially reasonable efforts by such Party to comply with the provisions of Section 7.4.

7.7 Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information.

(a) The rights and obligations granted under this Article VII are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange, retention, destruction or confidential treatment of information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

(b) Any party that receives, pursuant to a request for information in accordance with this Article VII, Tangible Information that is not relevant to its request shall, at the request of the providing Party, (i) return it to the providing Party or, at the providing Party’s request, destroy such Tangible Information; and (ii) deliver to the providing Party written confirmation that such Tangible Information was returned or destroyed, as the case may be, which confirmation shall be signed by an authorized representative of the requesting Party.

7.8 Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation.

(a) After the Separation Time, except in the case of a Dispute between Parent and SpinCo, or any members of their respective Groups, each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its Group as witnesses and any books, records or other documents within its possession, custody or control, to the extent that any such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with any Action in which the requesting Party (or member of its Group) may from time to time be involved, regardless of whether such Action is a matter with respect to which indemnification may be sought hereunder. The requesting Party shall bear all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

-72-

(b) If an Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or to seek to compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim, the other Party shall make available to such Indemnifying Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its Group as witnesses and any books, records or other documents within its possession, custody or control, to the extent that any such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be, and shall otherwise cooperate in such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall cooperate and consult to the extent reasonably necessary with respect to any Actions.

(d) Without limiting any provision of this Section 7.8, each of the Parties agrees to cooperate, and to cause each member of its Group to cooperate, with each other in the defense of any infringement or similar claim with respect to any Intellectual Property Rights and shall not claim to acknowledge, or permit any member of its Group to claim to acknowledge, the validity or infringing use of any Intellectual Property Rights of a third Person in a manner that would hamper or undermine the defense of such infringement or similar claim.

(e) The obligation of the Parties to provide witnesses pursuant to this Section 7.8 is intended to be interpreted in a manner so as to facilitate cooperation and shall include the obligation to provide as witnesses directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents without regard to whether such person could assert a possible business conflict (subject to the exception set forth in the first sentence of Section 7.8(a)).

7.9 Privileged Matters.

(a) The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Separation Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group, and that each of the members of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such services for the purposes of asserting all privileges which may be asserted under applicable Law in connection therewith. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided following the Separation Time, which services will be rendered solely for the benefit of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group, as the case may be. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party shall authorize the delivery to and/or retention by the other Party of materials existing as of the Separation Time that are necessary for such other Party to perform such services.

(b) The Parties agree as follows:

-73-

(i) Parent shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to the Parent Business and not to the SpinCo Business, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Parent Group or any member of the SpinCo Group. Parent shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any Parent Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Parent Group or any member of the SpinCo Group;

(ii) SpinCo shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to the SpinCo Business and not to the Parent Business, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Parent Group. SpinCo shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any SpinCo Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Parent Group; and

(iii) if the Parties do not agree as to whether certain information is Privileged Information, then such information shall be treated as Privileged Information, and the Party that believes that such information is Privileged Information shall be entitled to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any such information unless the Parties otherwise agree. The Parties shall use the procedures set forth in Article VIII to resolve any disputes as to whether any information relates solely to the Parent Business, solely to the SpinCo Business, or to both the Parent Business and the SpinCo Business.

(c) Subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 7.9, the Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege or immunity with respect to all privileges and immunities not allocated pursuant to Section 7.9(b) and all privileges and immunities relating to any Actions or other matters that involve both Parties (or one or more members of their respective Groups) and in respect of which both Parties have Liabilities under this Agreement, and that no such shared privilege or immunity may be waived by either Party without the consent of the other Party.

(d) If any Dispute arises between the Parties or any members of their respective Groups regarding whether a privilege or immunity should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either Party and/or any member of their respective Groups, each Party agrees that it shall (i) negotiate with the other Party in good faith; (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party; and (iii) not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Party. Further, each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold its consent to the waiver of a privilege or immunity for any purpose except in good faith to protect its own legitimate interests.

-74-

(e) In the event of any Dispute between Parent and SpinCo, or any members of their respective Groups, either Party may waive a privilege in which the other Party or member of such other Party’s Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining consent pursuant to Section 7.9(c); provided, that the Parties intend such waiver of a shared privilege to be effective only as to the use of information with respect to the Action between the Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and is not intended to operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to any Third Party.

(f) Upon receipt by either Party, or by any member of its Group, of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of Privileged Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which another Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if either Party obtains knowledge that any of its, or any member of its Group’s, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request (which notice shall be delivered to such other Party no later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of any such subpoena, discovery or other request) and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the Privileged Information and to assert any rights it or they may have under this Section 7.9 or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(g) Any furnishing of, or access or transfer of, any information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of Parent and SpinCo set forth in this Section 7.9 and in Section 7.10 to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable privileges and immunities. The Parties agree that their respective rights to any access to information, witnesses and other Persons, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and members of their respective Groups as needed pursuant to this Agreement, is not intended to be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

(h) In connection with any matter contemplated by Section 7.8 or this Section 7.9, the Parties agree to, and to cause the applicable members of their Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain their respective separate and joint privileges and immunities, including by executing joint defense and/or common interest agreements where necessary or useful for this purpose.

7.10 Confidentiality.

(a) Confidentiality. Subject to Section 7.11, from and after the Separation Time each of Parent and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and each member of its Group, agrees to hold, and to cause its respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to Parent’s confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Separation Time, all confidential and proprietary information concerning the other Party or any member of the other Party’s Group or their respective businesses (giving effect to the Separation) that is either in its possession (including confidential and proprietary information in its possession prior to the date hereof) or furnished by any such other Party or any member of such Party’s Group or their respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement, any

-75-

Ancillary Agreement or otherwise, and shall not use any such confidential and proprietary information other than for such purposes as shall be expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such confidential and proprietary information has been (i) in the public domain or generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Party or any member of such Party’s Group or any of their respective Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such Party (or any member of such Party’s Group) which sources are not, to the best of such Party’s knowledge, themselves bound by a confidentiality obligation or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality with respect to such confidential and proprietary information, or (iii) independently developed or generated without reference to or use of any proprietary or confidential information of the other Party or any member of such Party’s Group. If any confidential and proprietary information of one Party or any member of its Group is disclosed to the other Party or any member of such other Party’s Group in connection with providing services to such first Party or any member of such first Party’s Group under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then such disclosed confidential and proprietary information shall be used only as required to perform such services.

(b) No Release; Return or Destruction. Each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any information addressed in Section 7.10(a) to any other Person, except its Representatives who need to know such information in their capacities as such (who shall be advised of their obligations hereunder with respect to such information), and except in compliance with Section 7.11. Without limiting the foregoing, when any such information is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, and is no longer subject to any legal hold or other document preservation obligation, each Party will promptly after request of the other Party either return to the other Party all such information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or notify the other Party in writing that it has destroyed such information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); provided, that the Parties may retain electronic back-up versions of such information maintained on routine computer system backup tapes, disks or other backup storage devices; provided further, that any such information so retained shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(c) Third-Party Information; Privacy or Data Protection Laws. Each Party acknowledges that it and members of its Group may presently have and, following the Separation Time, may gain access to or possession of confidential or proprietary information of, or legally protected personal information relating to, Third Parties (i) that was received under privacy policies and/or confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements entered into between such Third Parties, on the one hand, and the other Party or members of such other Party’s Group, on the other hand, prior to the Separation Time; or (ii) that, as between the two Parties, was originally collected by the other Party or members of such other Party’s Group and that may be subject to and protected by privacy policies, as well as privacy, data protection or other applicable Laws. Each Party agrees that it shall hold, protect and use, and shall cause the members of its Group and its and their respective Representatives to hold, protect and use, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of, or legally protected personal information relating to, Third Parties in accordance with privacy policies and privacy, data protection or other applicable Laws and the terms of any agreements that were either entered into before the Separation Time or affirmative

-76-

commitments or representations that were made before the Separation Time by, between or among the other Party or members of the other Party’s Group, on the one hand, and such Third Parties, on the other hand. With respect to legally protected personal information received from consumers before the Separation Time, each Party agrees that it will not use data in a manner that is materially inconsistent with promises made at the time the data was collected unless it first obtains affirmative express consent from the relevant consumer.

7.11 Protective Arrangements. In the event that a Party or any member of its Group either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any information pursuant to applicable Law or receives any request or demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide information of the other Party (or any member of the other Party’s Group) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall notify the other Party (to the extent legally permitted) as promptly as practicable under the circumstances prior to disclosing or providing such information and shall cooperate, at the expense of the other Party, in seeking any appropriate protective order requested by the other Party. In the event that such other Party fails to receive such appropriate protective order in a timely manner and the Party receiving the request or demand reasonably determines that its failure to disclose or provide such Information shall actually prejudice the Party receiving the request or demand, then the Party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by its counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority or to the extent necessary for such Party to not be so prejudiced, and the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with a copy of the information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such information was disclosed, in each case to the extent legally permitted.

ARTICLE VIII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

8.1 Good Faith Officer Negotiation. Subject to Section 8.4, either Party seeking resolution of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (other than the Tax Matters Agreement or as contemplated by Schedule 5.11), including regarding whether any Assets are SpinCo Assets, any Liabilities are SpinCo Liabilities or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (a “Dispute”), which dispute could not be resolved by the Transition Committee, shall provide written notice thereof to the other Party (the “Officer Negotiation Request”). Within fifteen (15) days of the delivery of the Officer Negotiation Request, the Parties shall attempt to resolve the Dispute through good faith negotiation. All such negotiations shall be conducted by executives who hold, at a minimum, the title of Senior Vice President (or a position substantially equivalent thereto) and who have authority to settle the Dispute. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If the Parties are unable for any reason to resolve a Dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Officer Negotiation Request, and such thirty (30)-day period is not extended by mutual written consent of the Parties, the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties shall enter into good-faith negotiations in accordance with Section 8.2.

-77-

8.2 Good-Faith Negotiation. If any Dispute is not resolved pursuant to Section 8.1, the Party that delivered the Officer Negotiation Request shall provide written notice of such Dispute to the Chief Executive Officer of each Party (a “CEO Negotiation Request”). As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request, the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties shall begin conducting good-faith negotiations with respect to such Dispute. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties are unable for any reason to resolve a Dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request, and such thirty (30)-day period is not extended by mutual written consent of the Parties, the Party that delivered the CEO Negotiation request shall provide written notice of such Dispute to the Chairman of each Party’s board of directors, or lead independent director if the Chief Executive Officer of such Party also serves as the Chaiman of such Party’s board of directors (a “Director Negotiation Request”). As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a Director Negotiation Request, the applicable directors of each Party shall begin conducting good-faith negotiations with respect to such Dispute. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If the applicable directors of the Parties are unable for any reason to resolve a Dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of a DirectorNegotiation Request, and such thirty (30)-day period is not extended by mutual written consent of the Parties, the Dispute shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 8.3.

8.3 Arbitration.

(a) In the event that a Dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days of the receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request in accordance with Section 8.2, or within such longer period as the Parties may agree to in writing, then such Dispute shall, upon the written request of a Party (the “Arbitration Request”) be submitted to be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), except as modified herein. The arbitration shall be held in (i) New York City, New York, or (ii) such other place as the Parties may mutually agree in writing. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, any Dispute to be decided pursuant to this Section 8.3 will be decided (i) before a sole arbitrator if the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and counterclaims, totals less than $one (1) million; or (ii) by a panel of three (3) arbitrators if the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and counterclaims, totals $one (1) million or more.

(b) The panel of three (3) arbitrators will be chosen as follows: (i) within thirty (30) days from the date of the receipt of the Arbitration Request, each Party will name an arbitrator; and (ii) the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators will thereafter, within thirty (30) days from the date on which the second of the two (2) arbitrators was named, name a third independent arbitrator who will act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal. In the event that either Party fails to name an arbitrator within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the Arbitration Request, then upon written application by either Party, that arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the JAMS Rules. In the event that the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators fail to appoint the third, then the third independent arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the JAMS Rules. If the arbitration will be before a sole independent arbitrator, then the sole independent arbitrator will be appointed by agreement of the Parties within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the Arbitration Request. If the Parties cannot agree to a sole independent arbitrator during such thirty (30) day period, then upon written application by either party, the sole independent arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the JAMS Rules.

-78-

(c) The arbitrator(s) will have the right to award, on a preliminary or interim basis, or include in the final award, any relief that it deems proper in the circumstances, including money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the due date), injunctive relief (including specific performance) and attorneys’ fees and costs; provided, that the arbitrator(s) will not award any relief not specifically requested by the Parties and, in any event, will not award any indirect, punitive, exemplary, remote, speculative or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages of the other arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (other than any such Liability arising from a payment actually made to a Third Party with respect to a Third-Party Claim). Upon selection of the arbitrator(s) following any grant of interim relief by a special arbitrator or court pursuant to Section 8.4, the arbitrator(s) may affirm or disaffirm that relief, and the Parties will seek modification or rescission of the order entered by the court as necessary to accord with the decision of the arbitrator(s). The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the Parties, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The initiation of arbitration pursuant to this Article VIII will toll the applicable statute of limitations for the duration of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding applicable state Law, the arbitration and this agreement to arbitrate shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq.

8.4 Litigation and Unilateral Commencement of Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VIII, (a) a Party may seek preliminary provisional or injunctive judicial relief with respect to a Dispute without first complying with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1, Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 if such action is reasonably necessary to avoid irreparable damage it being understood that such initiating Party may, at its election, pursue arbitration, including seeking arbitral relief on a preliminary or interim basis, in lieu of such judicial relief) and (b) either Party may initiate arbitration before the expiration of the periods specified in Section 8.1, Section 8.2 and/or Section 8.3 if such Party has submitted an Officer Negotiation Request, a CEO Negotiation Request and/or an Arbitration Request and the other Party has failed to comply with Section 8.1, Section 8.2 and/or Section 8.3 in good faith with respect to such negotiation and/or the commencement and engagement in arbitration. In the circumstances contemplated by clause (b) of the immediately preceding sentence, the other Party may commence and prosecute such arbitration unilaterally in accordance with the JAMS Rules.

8.5 Conduct During Dispute Resolution Process. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall, and shall cause the respective members of their Groups to, continue to honor all commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement to the extent required by such agreements during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII, unless such commitments are the specific subject of the Dispute at issue.

This Agreement and, unless expressly provided therein, each Ancillary Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or thereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or to the inducement of any party to enter herein and therein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Delaware including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

11.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

11.7 Force Majeure.

A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable.

11.12 Waivers of Default.
