(ii) Parent (for itself or, as applicable, as agent for and on behalf of the relevant member of Parent Group owing the relevant Intra-Group Receivables) shall pay an amount equal to the aggregate of the Estimated Intra-Group Receivables (if any) to Sweden Buyer (as agent for the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary to which the relevant Intra-Group Receivables are owed).

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

(ii) if the actual amount of the Intra-Group Receivables is greater than the Estimated Intra-Group Receivables or the amount of the Intra-Group Payables is less than the Estimated Intra-Group Payables, then Parent (for itself or, as applicable, as agent for and on behalf of the relevant member of Parent Group) shall pay to Sweden Buyer (as agent for the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary) an amount equal to the difference (less any amount already settled), and

the Intra-Group Payables and Intra-Group Receivables shall be treated as fully paid and discharged.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.6, any sums which Parent or Sweden Buyer is obliged to pay pursuant to Section 2.4(a) shall be aggregated and set-off against each other, and the sums which each is respectively obliged to pay one another pursuant to Section 2.4(b) shall be aggregated and set-off against each other. Whichever of Sweden Buyer or Parent then remains with a payment obligation under Section 2.4(a), and separately under Section 2.4(b), shall, in each case, make the applicable payment only of the net amount payable with respect to each of Section 2.4(a) and Section 2.4(b). Where net amounts are paid or received, the book entries made in the accounts of the relevant debtor and creditor shall reflect the gross payments being effected to reflect the discharge of Intra-Group Payables and Intra-Group Receivables.

(e) If and to the extent that any of the mechanisms in this Stock Purchase Agreement for the settlement or discharge of any sums which Parent or Sweden Buyer is obliged to pay pursuant to this Section 2.4 would cause any person to breach exchange control or equivalent restrictions in any jurisdiction, or to violate any other Law, the Parties will co-operate in good faith to agree and implement an alternate mechanism which achieves the objectives of this Stock Purchase Agreement and avoids such breach or violation.

2.5 Closing Statement Adjustments to the Purchase Price

in each case pursuant to any agreement or arrangement entered into by any Target Company or Company Subsidiary on or before Closing;

(iv) any payment by a Target Company or Company Subsidiary (for purposes of this Section 6.2(a)(iv), the “payor”) to a Person other than a Target Company, Company Subsidiary or a member of Buyer Group or Geely Group (for purposes of this Section 6.2(a)(iv), the “payee”) pursuant to any breach of representation or warranty in respect of or relating to Tax or pursuant to a covenant to pay or to indemnify the payee for Taxes imposed upon or economically borne by the payee with respect to any period ended on or before Closing, and any costs reasonably and properly suffered or incurred by any Target Company or Company Subsidiary as a result of or in connection with any such claim, provided that such payment is required pursuant to an Agreement entered into prior to Closing pursuant to which Agreement the payor specifically agreed to indemnify or pay the payee for such Taxes or gave such representation or warranty in respect of or relating to Tax in connection with the sale and purchase of a business or part of a business or a business entity;

(v) any Deemed Tax Liability,

provided, however, that Parent shall not be liable to make a payment (x) in respect of any Tax or Tax Liability to the extent that provision or reserve in respect of such Tax or Tax Liability has been made in the Final Closing Statement and such Tax or Tax Liability is reflected in and reduces Net Working Capital or is reflected in and increases Net External Indebtedness, or (y) in respect of any Tax or Tax Liability described in Section 6.2(a)(i) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, not described in Section 6.2(a)(ii)) to the extent that such Tax or Tax Liability is imposed on a Target Company or Company Subsidiary, or for which a Target Company or Company Subsidiary may otherwise be liable, as a result of transactions occurring on the Closing Date subsequent to Closing (Taxes described in clauses (x) or (y) of this proviso, collectively, the “Excluded Taxes”). Insofar as provided in Section 6.2(c), Parent or Sweden Seller (as applicable) shall be entitled to any refund of Taxes allocable to any Pre-Closing Period and, with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, where, or to the extent that, such refund is not a Buyer’s Relief, and does not arise from the use of a Buyer’s Relief.

(b) With effect from Closing, Buyer Group shall be liable for and pay and, to the extent that Buyer Group fails to pay and any member of Parent Group is required to pay, U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer shall pay Sweden Seller and Parent (as applicable), subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and any applicable limitations set forth in Article 10, an amount equal to (i) all Taxes imposed on a Target Company or Company Subsidiary for any taxable year or taxable period that begins after the Closing Date and, with respect to a Straddle Period, for the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date (other than Taxes for which Parent is liable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2(a)), and (ii) Excluded Taxes.

(c) If, following Closing, a member of Buyer Group receives a refund of, or credit for Taxes of a Target Company or Company Subsidiary allocable to (i) any Pre-Closing Period or (ii) with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date (not being a refund or credit which is a Buyer’s Relief, or a refund or credit which arises from the use of a Buyer’s Relief), then Buyers shall pay to Parent an amount equal to such refund or credit; provided that this Section 6.2(c) shall not apply where the Tax refund or credit obtained arises in respect of an overpayment of Tax prior to Closing where such overpayment would not have been an overpayment but for any deduction, loss or credit arising in and allocable to a Tax period or portion of a Straddle Period (determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.2(d)) following Closing. Subject to Section 6.2(e), Buyers shall be entitled to any refund of, or credit for, Taxes allocable to a taxable year or period that begins after the Closing Date and, with respect to a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date, and if any such amount is received by any member of

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

Parent Group then Parent shall pay such amount to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer on behalf of the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary. Any amount of refund or credit payable by Buyers or Parent pursuant to this Sections 6.2(c) shall, in the case of a refund, be paid promptly following receipt, and in the case of a credit, shall be paid promptly following the date on which such credit results in a decrease of Liability for Tax, and shall be paid net of any Tax suffered on such refund or credit.

(d) For purposes of this Section 6.2, Taxes for a Straddle Period will be allocated between (x) the portion of the Straddle Period that begins at the beginning of the Straddle Period and ends at the end of the Closing Date, and (y) the remaining portion of the Straddle Period in the following manner:

(i) Any Tax other than real and personal property Taxes described in clause (ii) of this Section 6.2(d) will be allocated based on a “closing of the books” as of the end of the Closing Date.

(ii) Real and personal property Taxes with respect to property held by a Target Company or Company Subsidiary at Closing will be prorated based on the ratio of the number of days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date to the number of days in the remaining portion of the Straddle Period; provided, however, that if the transactions contemplated by this Stock Purchase Agreement result in the reassessment of the value of property owned by a Target Company or Company Subsidiary to a higher amount for property Tax purposes, or the imposition of property Taxes at a rate that is different than the rate that would have been imposed if such transactions had not occurred, then the calculation of the amount of such property Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be based on the assessed value and Tax rate that would have applied had such transactions not occurred.

(e) If any payment is made by Parent pursuant to Section 6.2(a) in respect of a Tax Liability or other matter, and there is a decrease in the Tax Liability of a member of Buyer Group or a successor thereof for a taxable year or taxable period beginning after the Closing Date or for the portion of any Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date which decrease would not have arisen but for the Tax Liability or other matter in respect of which the payment by Parent was made or the circumstances giving rise thereto, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall refund to Parent an amount equal to the amount of such decrease (less any Tax incurred in respect of such decrease), up to a maximum amount equal to the payment made under Section 6.2(a) in respect of the relevant Tax Liability (less any Tax suffered on that payment, except to the extent that the payment made by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer to Parent pursuant to this Section 6.2(e) (the “Tax Refund Payment”) results in a decrease in liability to Tax of a member of Buyer Group which would not have arisen but for the making of the Tax Refund Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Tax Refund Payment results in the cancellation or reduction of the Tax which would otherwise be suffered on the payment made by Parent in respect of the relevant Tax Liability, such cancellation or reduction shall be a decrease in liability to Tax of a member of Buyer Group for the purposes of the previous sentence), provided that no amount shall be refunded where the decrease is in an amount of Tax which would otherwise have given rise to a claim under Section 6.2(a). The provisions of this Section 6.2(e) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, where a payment is made by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer pursuant to Section 6.2(b), and there is a resulting decrease in the Tax liability of a member of Parent Group, as if the references to “Parent” and “Sweden Seller” were references to “U.S. Buyer” and “Sweden Buyer” and read with any other necessary modifications.

(f) If Parent is obligated to make a payment to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer under Section 6.2(a)(i) or Section 6.2(a)(ii) with respect to an Actual Tax Liability of a Target Company or a Company Subsidiary and if Parent does not make such payment by the close of a due date that is the later of (i) the date such Actual Tax Liability was paid to the applicable Tax Authority and (ii) the tenth

EXECUTION VERSION

Business Day following the date U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, delivers a written demand for such payment to Parent, then the payment which Parent is obligated to make shall be increased by an amount equal to the Default Interest accruing on such payment from the close of such due date to the date Parent makes such payment (including such interest). If Parent is obligated to make a payment to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer under Section 6.2(a)(iv) with respect to any payment made or costs suffered or incurred by a Target Company or Company Subsidiary to which Section 6.2(a)(iv) applies and if Parent does not make such payment by the close of a due date that is the later of (x) the date the Target Company or Company Subsidiary involved made such payment or suffered or incurred such costs and (y) the tenth Business Day following the date U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, delivers a written demand for such payment to Parent, then the payment which Parent is obligated to make shall be increased by an amount equal to the Default Interest accruing on such payment from the close of such due date to the date Parent makes such payment (including such interest). If U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is obligated to make a payment to Parent or Sweden Seller under Section 6.2(b) with respect to an Actual Tax Liability of a Target Company or a Company Subsidiary and if U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, does not make such payment by the close of a due date that is the later of (A) the date such Actual Tax Liability was paid to the applicable Tax Authority and (B) the tenth Business Day following the date Parent or Sweden Seller, as the case may be, delivers a written demand for such payment to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, then the payment which U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is obligated to make shall be increased by an amount equal to the Default Interest accruing on such payment from the close of such due date to the date U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer makes such payment (including such interest). For the avoidance of doubt and to avoid a duplicative accrual of interest, no interest shall accrue pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.2(f) with respect to any day for which the Actual Tax Liability itself has increased due to the accrual of interest payable to the Tax Authority for such day or with respect to any day for which interest has accrued pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.4(c)(v). Notwithstanding any provision of this Stock Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 12.6(d) shall not apply to the payment of interest pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.2(f).

6.3 Transfer Taxes

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Stock Purchase Agreement, any real property transfer, stamp Tax, stock transfer Tax, or other similar transfer Tax (together “Transfer Taxes”) imposed on the transactions contemplated by this Stock Purchase Agreement shall be borne equally by (i) U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer, on the one hand, and (ii) Parent and Sweden Seller, on the other hand, except to the extent that such Transfer Taxes are imposed by a Tax Authority in Sweden and Sweden Buyer is legally required to account for such Transfer Taxes, in which case such Transfer Taxes shall be borne by Sweden Buyer.

6.4 Tax Returns

(a) Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4, Parent or its duly authorized agents shall prepare, file or cause to be filed when due, taking into account all extensions properly obtained, all Tax Returns that are required to be filed on or before the Closing Date by or with respect to each Target Company and each Company Subsidiary, and Parent shall timely remit or cause to be timely remitted Taxes shown due and payable on such Tax Returns. Except as otherwise required by Law or caused by a change in Law, all such Tax Returns, to the extent relating to a Target Company or Company Subsidiary, shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with past practice (and without unreasonable delay), and no position will be taken, election made or method of accounting adopted that is inconsistent with positions taken, elections made or methods of accounting used in preparing and filing

similar Tax Returns in prior periods. With respect to Tax returns that are required to be filed after the Closing Date, Parent shall also, at its own cost, prepare, file or cause to be filed when due, taking into account all extensions properly obtained, (i) all U.S. federal, state and local income Tax Returns that report income and deductions of U.S. Company for Pre-Closing Periods and that are prepared on the basis that U.S. Company is a disregarded entity for income Tax purposes, and (ii) all U.S. federal, state and local income Tax Returns for Straddle Periods that report income and deductions of U.S. Company with respect to any period of time occurring on or before the Closing Date and that are prepared on the basis that U.S. Company is a disregarded entity for income Tax purposes, and (in each case) Parent shall timely remit or cause to be timely remitted Taxes shown due and payable on such Tax Returns. The cost to any Target Company or Company Subsidiary in preparing or filing such Tax Returns shall be provided for, reserved or accrued in the Final Closing Statement and shall be reflected in and reduce Net Working Capital or reflected in and increase Net External Indebtedness.

(b)

(i) Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.4 and except as otherwise provided in Section 6.4(a), U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or their duly authorized agents shall prepare, file or cause to be filed when due, taking into account all extensions properly obtained, all Tax Returns with respect to Pre-Closing Periods and all Tax Returns with respect to Straddle Periods, in each case that are required to be filed after the Closing Date by or with respect to a Target Company or Company Subsidiary, and U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, shall timely remit or cause to be timely remitted Taxes shown due and payable on such Tax Returns. Except as otherwise required by Law or caused by a change in Law, all such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with past practice, and no position will be taken, election made or method of accounting adopted that is inconsistent with positions taken, elections made or methods of accounting used in preparing and filing similar Tax Returns in prior periods.

(ii) Parent shall be liable for and shall pay to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) an amount equal to (A) all external costs and expenses reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary) in complying with its obligations in respect of Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Periods pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(i) and (B) such proportion of any external costs and expenses reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary) in complying with its obligations in respect of Tax Returns for Straddle Periods pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(i) as corresponds to the proportion of the Straddle Period which falls on or prior to the Closing Date, provided (in each case) that the appointment of external agents to assist with those obligations is consistent with the past practice of the Target Company or Company Subsidiary concerned. If, and to the extent that, any member of Parent Group, other than the Target Company or Company Subsidiary concerned, was primarily responsible for or materially assisted in the preparation and filing of the Tax Returns for the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary prior to Closing, external costs reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary) in appointing external agents to undertake those responsibilities or to give such assistance after Closing in relation to Tax Returns for which U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is responsible pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(i) shall be costs and expenses for which Parent is liable to the extent provided in clause (A) or (B) (as the case may be) of the preceding sentence despite not being consistent with past practice. Parent shall pay U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer any amounts for which Parent is liable pursuant to this Section 6.4(b)(ii) by the later of (a) the date when U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the Target Company or Company Subsidiary concerned becomes liable to pay or incur such costs; and (b) the tenth Business Day following the date U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, delivers a written demand for such payment to Parent.

(c) With respect to Tax Returns prepared by Parent pursuant to subsection (a), on the one hand, or prepared by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer pursuant to subsection (b), on the other hand:

(i) The Party responsible for preparing a Tax Return (for purposes of this Section 6.4, the “preparing party”) shall provide to the other Party (for purposes of this Section 6.4, the “other party”) a draft of such Tax Return at least 30 days before such Tax Return is required to be filed, and, in the case of a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, the preparing party shall at the same time provide to the other party a written calculation of the allocation pursuant to Section 6.2(d) of the Tax liability with respect to such Tax Return; provided, however, that notwithstanding any provision of this Stock Purchase Agreement to the contrary, Parent shall have no obligation to provide U.S. Buyer or any Affiliate of U.S. Buyer with any U.S. federal, state or local income Tax Return (including any schedules, attachments or other information relating to such Tax Return) that is prepared on the basis that U.S. Company is a disregarded entity.

(ii) To the extent permitted by Law, the preparing party shall promptly provide the other party (or shall procure that the other party is promptly provided) with all information reasonably necessary to enable the other party to review each draft Tax Return and allocation provided by the preparing party to the other party pursuant to Section 6.4(c)(i), provided that in the case of a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer may redact any such information to the extent reasonably necessary to preserve the confidentiality of commercially sensitive confidential information.

(iii) The other party shall notify the preparing party of proposed revisions to any draft Tax Return or allocation provided by the preparing party to the other party pursuant to Section 6.4(c)(i) within 15 days of the receipt by the other party from the preparing party of such draft Tax Return and, in the case of a Tax Return for a Straddle Period, such allocation. Such proposed revisions shall be addressed in the following manner:

(A)

a. In the case of a Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period as to which U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is the preparing party and Parent is the other party, the preparing party shall incorporate the revisions proposed by the other party into such Tax Return and shall timely file such Tax Return as so revised with the Taxing Authority, provided that (x) the preparing party shall not be obligated to incorporate a specific revision to the extent that incorporation of such specific revision would cause an Inconsistency (as defined in Section 6.4(c)(iii)(D) below), and (y) the other party shall consider in good faith any objections the preparing party makes to any other specific revision but shall not be required to accept such objections (and, if it does not accept such objections, then, subject to the other provisions of this Section 6.4(c)(iii)(A), the revision to the Tax Return shall be made notwithstanding such objections). If the preparing party believes that the incorporation of a specific revision would cause an Inconsistency, it shall (by no later than the start of the fifth day prior to the due date of such Tax Return and with written notice to the other party) present the question to an internationally recognized firm of accountants appointed by agreement between Parent or Sweden Seller (as applicable) and U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable), or, in default of agreement, by the President from time to time of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (the “Independent Tax Accountant”) for its prompt determination.

b. Where the preparing party believes that the incorporation of a specific revision would cause such Tax Return to be false, misleading or inaccurate in any respect then

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

except to the extent that, prior to the due date of such Tax Return, the Independent Tax Accountant determines that such specific revision would not cause such Tax Return to be false, misleading or inaccurate in any respect, the Tax Return shall be filed without such specific revision proposed by the other Party. In any other case, except to the extent that, prior to the due date of such Tax Return, the Independent Tax Accountant determines that a specific revision would cause such Tax Return to be contrary to a specific requirement of Law or of the last sentence of Section 6.4(b)(i) the Tax Return shall be filed with the revisions proposed by the other Party. If, subsequent to the Tax Return having being filed, the Independent Tax Accountant makes a determination which is contrary to the position which has been taken in the Tax Return which has been filed, an amended Tax Return shall be filed to reflect the determination of the Independent Tax Accountant.

(B) In the case of a Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Period as to which Parent is the preparing party and U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is the other party, the preparing party shall consider in good faith any revisions proposed by the other party but shall not be obligated to accept such revisions, provided that the preparing party shall be required to incorporate a specific revision to the extent that the incorporation of such specific revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency. If the other party believes that the incorporation of a specific revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency, it shall (by no later than the start of the fifth day prior to the due date of such Tax Return and with written notice to the preparing party) present the question to the Independent Tax Accountant for its prompt determination. Except to the extent that, prior to the due date of such Tax Return, the Independent Tax Accountant determines that a specific revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency, the Tax Return shall be filed without the revisions proposed by the other party. If, subsequent to the Tax Return having being filed, the Independent Tax Accountant makes a determination which is contrary to the position which has been taken in the Tax Return which has been filed, an amended Tax Return shall be filed to reflect the determination of the Independent Tax Accountant.

(C)

a. In the case of a Tax Return for a Straddle Period as to which U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer is the preparing party and Parent is the other party, the preparing party shall incorporate the reasonable revisions proposed by the other party into such Tax Return to the extent that they are materially relevant to the liability of the other party under this Agreement and are not materially relevant to Tax which would economically be borne by the preparing party. The preparing party shall consider in good faith any other revisions proposed by the other party which are both materially relevant to the liability of the other party under this Agreement and materially relevant to Tax which would economically be borne by the preparing party (giving due weight to each of these considerations bearing in mind the relative amounts of Tax at stake) but shall not be obligated to accept such revisions, except to the extent that the incorporation of such specific revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency. If the other party believes that the incorporation of such revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency it shall (by no later than the start of the fifth day prior to the due date of such Tax Return and with written notice to the preparing party) present the question to the Independent Tax Accountant for its prompt determination.

b. Where the greater part of the Straddle Period falls on or before the Closing Date, except to the extent that, prior to the due date of such Tax Return, the Independent Tax Accountant determines that a specific revision is not required in order to avoid an Inconsistency, the Tax Return shall be filed with the revisions proposed by the other party, provided that if the preparing party (acting reasonably and in good faith) believes that a specific revision would cause such Tax Return to be false, misleading, incomplete or inaccurate in any respect then the Tax Return shall be filed without such specific revision. If, subsequent to the Tax Return having being filed, the Independent Tax Accountant

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

makes a determination which is contrary to the position which has been taken in the Tax Return which has been filed, an amended Tax Return shall be filed to reflect the determination of the Independent Tax Accountant.

c. Where the greater part of the Straddle Period falls after the Closing Date, except to the extent that, prior to the due date of such Tax Return, the Independent Tax Accountant determines that a specific revision is required in order to avoid an Inconsistency, the Tax Return shall be filed without the revisions proposed by the other party. If, subsequent to the Tax Return having being filed, the Independent Tax Accountant makes a determination which is contrary to the position which has been taken in the Tax Return which has been filed, an amended Tax Return shall be filed to reflect the determination of the Independent Tax Accountant.

(D) For the purposes of this Section 6.4(c)(iii), “Inconsistency” means that a Tax Return is (i) contrary to a specific requirement of Law, (ii) materially inconsistent with the requirements of the second sentence of Section 6.4(a) or the last sentence of Section 6.4(b)(i) (as applicable), or (iii) false, misleading or inaccurate in any respect.

(iv) Subject to the proviso in Section 6.4(c)(i), by no later than the date each Tax Return is filed, the preparing party shall provide to the other party a complete copy of such Tax Return as filed.

(v) By no later than the third Business Day prior to the date each Tax Return is to be filed or each Tax payment is otherwise due, the other party shall pay to the preparing party the portion (if any) of the Actual Tax Liability due with respect to such Tax Return or Tax payment for which the other party is responsible pursuant to Section 6.2. In the event that the preparing party and the other party disagree as to the proper amount of such payment, the other party shall pay to the preparing party the amount that the other party believes to be proper, and the disagreement as to the amount claimed by the preparing party shall be submitted to Independent Tax Accountant for its expeditious determination. Upon determination by Independent Tax Accountant of the additional amount (if any) of Actual Tax Liability properly payable by the other party, the other party shall pay to the preparing party such additional amount together with Default Interest with respect to the period from the date such additional amount should have been paid pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.4(c)(v) to the date such additional amount is actually paid. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 6.4(c)(v) are intended to facilitate the timely payment by the Parties to the applicable Tax Authorities of the Actual Tax Liabilities as such payments are due; the determination of the ultimate responsibility of the respective Parties for Tax is controlled by Section 6.2. Accordingly, the calculation of the amount (if any) payable by the other party to the preparing party pursuant to this Section 6.4(c)(v), whether by agreement of the Parties or determination of Independent Tax Accountant, shall not be dispositive of, or in any way prejudice, the determination of any Party’s ultimate liability pursuant to Section 6.2.

(d) Subject to the proviso in Section 6.4(c)(i), the preparing party shall procure that:

(i) the other party is kept fully informed of the progress of all matters relating to the Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Periods and Straddle Periods;

(ii) the other party, promptly at the end of each calendar month, receives copies of all written correspondence with any Tax Authority insofar as it is relevant to Pre-Closing Periods or Straddle Periods;

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

(iii) no Tax Return is submitted to any Tax Authority which is not, so far as preparing party is aware, true, complete and correct in all respects, and not misleading; and

(iv) no material correspondence is submitted to, or any material agreement reached with, any Tax Authority without the prior written approval of the other party (which approval will not be withheld, conditioned or delayed unreasonably).

For the purposes of Section 6.4(d)(iv) above, “material correspondence” and “material agreements” are Tax Returns and other correspondence and Agreements which the preparing party considers, or ought reasonably to consider, would be of material importance to the other party as regards either the future relationship with the Tax Authority concerned, the indemnification obligations of the other party pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, or the liability to Tax of any Target Company or Company Subsidiary or any other member of Parent Group, Buyer Group or Geely Group.

(e) None of U.S. Buyer, Sweden Buyer or any member of Buyer Group or Geely Group shall, or shall cause or permit a Target Company or Company Subsidiary to, amend, refile or otherwise modify, or grant an extension of any statute of limitation with respect to, a Tax Return relating in whole or in part to a Target Company or Company Subsidiary with respect to any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period other than (A) where such amendment, refiling, modification or extension would not increase the liability of Parent or Sweden Seller under this Stock Purchase Agreement; or (B) with the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f) In the event that Parent at any time in its sole discretion determines that Sweden Company may be considered a shell company (Sw. skalbolag) under the Swedish Income Tax Act (Sw. Inkomstskattelagen (1999:1229)), Sweden Company shall timely file a cash company Tax Return (Sw. skalbolagsdeklaration) with the relevant Tax Authority with respect to the sale and transfer of the Sweden Company Shares by Sweden Seller pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement. In the event that such cash company Tax Return is to be filed on or before the Closing Date, Parent shall procure that Sweden Company timely file such Tax Return, and, in the event that such cash company Tax Return is to be filed after the Closing Date, Sweden Buyer shall procure that Sweden Company timely file such Tax Return, provided that (a) Parent gives Sweden Buyer notice of its determination that such cash company Tax Return is required to be filed, on a timely basis and in any event at least 25 Business Days before such cash company Tax Return is required to be filed; (b) so far as permitted by law, such cash company Tax Return shall be filed within 30 days of the Parties entering into this Stock Purchase Agreement; and (c) Parent Company shall be liable for and shall pay to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) an amount equal to all external costs and expenses reasonably incurred by Sweden Buyer (or Sweden Company) in complying with its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.4(f), on the date which is the later of (a) the date when Sweden Buyer or Sweden Company becomes liable to pay or incur such costs; and (b) the tenth Business Day following the date Sweden Buyer delivers a written demand for such payment to Parent.

6.5 Conduct of Tax Proceedings

(a) Upon receipt by a member of Buyer Group of written notice of a Tax audit, examination or assessment, or related administrative or court proceeding, either pending or threatened in writing (a “Tax Proceeding”), which would reasonably be expected to give rise to a Tax Claim against Parent, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall promptly (and in any event within 15 days of the receipt by Buyer Group of such written notice) notify Parent and shall provide Parent with copies of all notices or other

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

correspondence or documents from the relevant Tax Authority received by a member of Buyer Group with respect to each such Tax Proceeding.

(b) In respect of a Tax Proceeding for a Pre-Closing Period or in respect of any Tax Proceeding for a Straddle Period which is not relevant to Tax which would be economically borne by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, the Parties agree as follows: (i) Parent shall have the right to represent, at its own expense, each Target Company’s and each Company Subsidiary’s interests in any Tax Proceeding which would reasonably be expected to give rise to a Tax Claim against Parent and, at Parent’s expense, to employ counsel of its choice that is reasonably acceptable to Buyers. Within 30 days of the receipt by Parent of the written notice of such a Tax Proceeding, Parent shall notify U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, as to whether it elects to represent the Target Company or Company Subsidiary to which such Tax Proceeding relates; and (ii) if, in connection with any such Tax Proceeding, Parent does not elect to represent such Target Company or Company Subsidiary, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall continue to keep Parent fully informed of the status and conduct of such Tax Proceeding (including through compliance with the provisions of Section 6.5(a)), shall consult with Parent with respect to the conduct of such Tax Proceeding, and, upon the request of Parent (and subject to Section 6.5(d)), shall permit and enable Parent to participate in such Tax Proceeding at Parent’s expense. U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer shall not, and shall procure that no member of Buyer Group shall, settle any claim for Taxes for which Parent may be liable pursuant to Section 6.2, without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(i) any external costs reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary in connection with any action taken by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary in respect of any such Tax Proceeding to which Section 6.5(b)(ii) applies, including any external costs reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary in satisfying or settling (pursuant to the requirements of Section 6.5(b)(ii)) the Tax Liability which is the subject of such Tax Proceeding; and

(ii) any external costs reasonably incurred by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary which are directly attributable to any action taken by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary in obtaining any refund or credit for Taxes to which Section 6.2(c) applies.

Parent shall pay U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer any amounts for which Parent is liable pursuant to this Section 6.5(c) by the later of (x) the date when U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer or the Target Company or Company Subsidiary concerned becomes liable to pay or incur such costs; and (y) the tenth Business Day following the date U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, as the case may be, delivers a written demand for such payment to Parent.

(d) In the event that a payment of Tax is required by Law as a precondition to the prosecution of a Tax Proceeding described in Section 6.5(b) that Parent wishes to pursue (whether pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 6.5(b)), then Parent shall provide the funds necessary for such payment; provided, however, that, in the case of a Tax Proceeding pertaining to a Straddle Period, the obligation to pay such funds shall be allocated between and borne by Parent, on the one hand, and U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, on the other hand, equitably in accordance with the principles of Section 6.2(d). Any payment of Tax pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.5(d) shall be credited to the payor and

(e) In the event that Parent elects to control or participate in any Tax Proceedings in accordance with Section 6.5(b) then:

(i) Parent shall keep U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) reasonably informed of the progress of such Tax Proceedings and shall promptly forward or procure to be forwarded to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer copies of all material correspondence and other material written information and documentation; provided, however, that Parent may redact such correspondence, information and documentation to the extent reasonably necessary to preserve the confidentiality of commercially sensitive confidential information;

(ii) Parent shall consult with U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) and shall endeavor in good faith to provide U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) with the opportunity to provide Parent with comments with respect to the matters described in Section 6.5(e)(i) and shall consider such comments in good faith; and

(iii) Parent shall make no settlement or compromise of the matter to which the Tax Proceedings relate nor agree to any matter in the conduct of the Tax Proceedings the terms of which are reasonably expected to result in a material increase in any future liability to Tax of any member of the Buyer Group which is directly attributable to the terms of such settlement or compromise without the prior written approval of U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (taking into account the amount of the Tax Liability involved and the nature of the issues at stake provided that U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall not have reasonable grounds for withholding, conditioning or delaying its approval to such settlement or compromise unless the reasonably expected increase in the future liability to Tax of any member of the Buyer Group is in an amount which (taking into account in each case the time value of money) is at least equal to 125% of the cost to Parent arising as a direct result of Parent being unable to settle or compromise the matter to which the Tax Proceedings relates (being the difference between the amount which the relevant Tax Authority has indicated it is prepared to accept in settlement or compromise of the matter, and the maximum amount of the Tax Liability for which Parent would otherwise potentially be liable pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, in the absence of such settlement or compromise)).

(f) If Parent or Sweden Seller receives written notice of any Tax Proceeding which would reasonably be expected to give rise to a Tax Claim against U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer under Section 6.2(b), Parent shall promptly (and in any event not more than 15 days after Parent or Sweden Seller receives such written notice) notify Buyers of such Tax Proceeding (including reasonably sufficient details of such Tax Proceeding).

(g) Subject to Section 6.5(b), U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall have the sole right to control any Tax Proceeding which would reasonably be expected to give rise to a Tax Claim against U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer under Section 6.2(b), provided that U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) acknowledges and agrees in writing that Parent and Sweden Seller shall not be liable to make any payment to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer in respect of such Tax Proceeding or the subject matter of such Tax Proceeding, to the extent that such Liability is increased as a result of any action taken by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.5(g).

(h) In respect of any Tax Proceeding for a Straddle Period, which is relevant both to the liability of Parent pursuant to Section 6.2(a) of this Agreement and to Tax which would be economically borne by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer:

(i) where the greater proportion of the liability to which the Tax Proceeding relates (taking into account liabilities for the Straddle Period alone) would be borne by Parent, Parent shall have the right to control such Tax Proceedings in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.5(b), provided that Parent shall continue to keep U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) fully informed of the status and conduct of such Tax Proceeding, and shall consult with U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer with respect to the conduct of such Tax Proceeding. Parent shall not, and shall procure that no member of Buyer Group shall, settle any claim for Taxes which may be economically borne by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (in whole or in part), without the prior written consent of U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of Section 6.5(e) and this Section 6.5(h)(i), the provisions of this Section 6.5(h)(i) shall prevail;

(ii) where the greater proportion of the liability to which the Tax Proceeding relates (taking into account liabilities for the Straddle Period alone) would be borne by U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer (as applicable) shall have the right to control such Tax Proceedings. In connection with any such Tax Proceeding, U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer shall continue to keep Parent fully informed of the status and conduct of such Tax Proceeding, and shall consult with Parent with respect to the conduct of such Tax Proceeding. U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer shall not, and shall procure that no member of Buyer Group shall, settle any claim for Taxes for which Parent may be liable (in whole or in part) pursuant to Section 6.2, without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; and

(iii) responsibility for external costs incurred by Parent, U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer in connection with any Tax Proceeding for a Straddle Period shall be apportioned and borne equitably between the Parties in accordance with the Parties’ respective responsibilities for Tax liabilities with respect to such Straddle Period (determined in accordance with the principles of Section 6.2(d)). Payments from one Party to another in order to achieve such equitable sharing of external costs shall be made by the payor within the time period specified in Section 6.5(c) (applied without regard to which Party is payor).

6.6 Group Relief and Tax Losses

(i) If a Target Company or Company Subsidiary which is a Group Profit Company participates in any arrangement in respect of Group Relief with a member of Parent Group which is a Group Loss Company, no payment shall be required with respect to such action. If a Target Company or Company Subsidiary which is a Group Loss Company participates in any arrangement in respect of Group Relief with a member of Parent Group which is a Group Profit Company, then, except in cases described in clause (i) of the proviso in Section 6.6(a), Parent shall procure that a payment for Group Relief shall be made to the relevant Target Company or Company Subsidiary by the relevant member of Parent Group in an amount equal to any Tax saved by or refunded to the relevant member of Parent Group as a result of such arrangements, on the date on which the Tax saved or refunded would have otherwise become due and payable.

(ii) If Parent, on behalf of a member of Parent Group, desires to enter into an arrangement in respect of Group Relief with a Target Company or Company Subsidiary with respect to the Straddle Period, items of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated between the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the remaining portion of the Straddle Period based on a “closing of the books” as of the end of the Closing Date, unless otherwise required by Law.

If at any time an Indemnified Party recovers from a third party in respect of a Loss subject to indemnification hereunder after payment has been made by the Indemnifying Party in full discharge of the liability giving rise to such payment, then the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for amounts the Indemnifying Party has paid to the Indemnified Party in respect of such Loss to the extent the aggregate amounts received by the Indemnified Party from such third party (less any Tax suffered thereon, except to the extent that the payment made by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this sentence of Section 10.9 (the “Third Party Refund Payment”) results in a decrease in liability to Tax of the Indemnified Party which would not have arisen but for the making of the Third Party Refund Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Third Party Refund Payment results in the cancellation or reduction of the Tax which would otherwise be suffered on the payment received by the Indemnified Party from the relevant third party, such cancellation or reduction shall be a decrease in liability to Tax of the Indemnified Party for the purposes of the previous sentence) and amounts received by the Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Party (less any Tax suffered on that payment) in respect of such Loss exceed the amount of such Loss for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible under this Article 10.

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

10.10 Payments

Indemnification shall be payable pursuant to Section 6.2(a), Section 6.2(b), Section 10.2 and Section 10.4, upon the resolution of such claim for indemnification by mutual Agreement between Parent and Sweden Buyer or the issuance of a final Order, which is not subject to appeal or with respect to which the time for appeal has expired, by a court having jurisdiction over the Parties and the subject matter of such claim for indemnification, or within ten Business Days of the issuance of a final arbitral award, unless within such ten Business Day period a judicial proceeding to confirm or vacate such award is filed, and in such event within ten Business Days of the issuance of a final Order of a court, administrative agency or other applicable Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction in such proceeding that is not subject to appeal, provided that in respect of any Third Party Claim the defense of which was assumed by the Indemnifying Party any payment will be made directly by the Indemnifying Party, on behalf of the Indemnified Party, in accordance with any settlement Agreement or final Order or award in connection with such Third Party Claim.

10.11 Treatment of Payments

All payments made by Parent to U.S. Buyer or Sweden Buyer for breach of any warranty or pursuant to any indemnity or covenant to pay (including pursuant to this Article 10 or Section 6.2 and Section 6.3) shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price, unless such treatment is inconsistent with Law. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.2(a)(v) with respect to certain Deemed Tax Liabilities and except pursuant to any breach of the warranty set out in Section 3.12(v) or the covenants set out in Section 6.6, no Buyer Indemnitee shall be indemnified or reimbursed for any reduction of, or utilization of, any net operating loss carry forward, tax credit carry forward or similar Tax attribute or any Tax liability attributable to such reduction or utilization.

10.12 Mitigation; Exclusive Remedy

(a) Each applicable Indemnified Party shall take all commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any amounts payable with respect to Losses such Indemnified Party may incur with respect to any circumstances giving rise to a claim for indemnification under Section 6.2(a)(iv), Section 6.3, Section 10.2 (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 12.6) or Section 10.4 (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 12.6); provided that this Section 10.12 shall not obligate any Indemnified Party to take commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses such Indemnified Party may incur with respect to any circumstances giving rise to a claim pursuant to Section 6.2 other than a Claim described in Section 6.2(a)(iv). In the event that any such Indemnified Party fails to take such commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Losses, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Stock Purchase Agreement, such Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify any Person for any Loss that would reasonably be expected to have been avoided if such Indemnified Party had taken such steps, provided that nothing in this Section 10.12(a) shall oblige an Indemnified Party to take any action which would be unduly onerous or materially prejudicial to it or its business (including the Business) and the application of this Section 10.12(a) shall not cause an Indemnified Party to suffer as a result of failure to take such unduly onerous or materially prejudicial action.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 6.10 and Section 6.15, the provisions set forth in this Article 10, as well as Section 6.2, Section 6.3, Section 6.4, Section 6.5, Section 6.6 and Section 12.13, constitute the exclusive remedy, following Closing, of Parent, Sweden Seller, U.S. Buyer and Sweden Buyer with respect to this Stock Purchase Agreement, including for any breach, or alleged breach, of any representation and warranty or covenant or agreement in this Stock Purchase Agreement, provided,

Stock Purchase Agreement

EXECUTION VERSION

however, that nothing in this Section 10.12(b) shall limit the right of any Party to seek specific performance or injunctive relief, pursuant to Section 12.13 or otherwise, in connection with any breach, or an alleged or threatened breach, by another Party of its obligations under this Stock Purchase Agreement, whether before or following Closing, and, provided, further, that each Party acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall either Party or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, or representatives be liable to indemnify, reimburse or covenant to pay the other Party in any respect pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, except (i) as provided for in this Article 10 and Section 6.2, Section 6.3, Section 6.4, Section 6.5, Section 6.6, Section 6.10 and Section 6.15 or (ii) in the case of actual fraud or willful misconduct, where the Party against whom such actual fraud or willful misconduct was committed shall have all rights and remedies available under this Stock Purchase Agreement and at Law, in equity or otherwise against the Party that committed such actual fraud or willful misconduct. The foregoing shall not limit the rights of the Parties under Section 12.5 or Section 12.19.

(b) No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Stock Purchase Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or privilege nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

12.4 Successors and Assigns

(a) Following Closing, Sweden Seller shall have the right at any time to assign its rights and obligations under this Stock Purchase Agreement to Parent, provided that Parent shall execute and deliver to Buyers an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form attached to this Stock Purchase Agreement as Exhibit III and provided, further, that no such assignment shall make greater, enlarge, alter, modify or otherwise change any obligation or Liability of Buyers under this Stock Purchase Agreement or to any member of Parent Group or Parent Indemnitee.

12.5 Payments

(a) Except as otherwise specified in this Stock Purchase Agreement, any payment to be made pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement by any member of Buyer Group shall be made to Parent (for itself or as agent for the relevant member of Parent Group, as applicable) and Parent agrees to pay each member of Parent Group that part of each payment to which it is entitled, and any payment to be made pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement by any member of Parent Group shall be made to the Sweden Buyer (for itself or as agent for the relevant member of Buyer Group or Geely Group, as applicable) and Sweden Buyer agrees to pay each member of Buyer Group or Geely Group that part of each payment to which it is entitled.

12.6 Deductions from Payments; Gross-up

(a) Except as set forth in Section 2.4(d) and Section 2.5(d), or otherwise in this Stock Purchase Agreement or as required by Law, any payment by a Party required to make such payment under this Stock Purchase Agreement (for purpose of this Section 12.6, the “payer”) to or as directed by any other Party (for purpose of this Section 12.6, the “payee”) shall be made in full without any set-off, restriction or condition, whether for or on account of any counterclaim or otherwise, and without deduction or withholding of any kind, other than any deduction or withholding required by Law.

(b) If any deduction or withholding of Taxes is required by Law, the payer shall (i) make such deduction or withholding and (ii) pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Entity, in accordance with Law.

(c) The Parties acknowledge and agree, for the avoidance of doubt, that where there is a deduction or withholding of Taxes required by Law from a payment under this Stock Purchase Agreement (other than an Indemnity Payment, to which Section 12.6(d) below will apply), the payee shall be deemed to have received the gross amount, before any such deduction or withholding.

Stock Purchase Agreement

103

EXECUTION VERSION

(d) Where a payer makes a payment in satisfaction of a liability arising in respect of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under the indemnification provisions of this Stock Purchase Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under the provisions of Section 6.2(a), Section 6.2(b), Section 10.2 and Section 10.4 and excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Purchase Price and any payments made pursuant to Section 2.4, Section 2.5 and Section 2.6) (an “Indemnity Payment”), then the following provisions shall apply:

(iv) the payee shall use its reasonable efforts to identify and apply any Tax credit or refund arising as a result of any deduction, withholding or increased payment referred to in paragraph (i), (ii) or (iii) above and shall pay to payer an amount (not exceeding the amount of any additional payment made under paragraph (ii) or (iii), as relevant, as a result of such withholding, deduction or payment) equal to any refund or reduction in Tax obtained as a result net of any Tax payable on the amount received, as and when such refund is received by it or the amount of Tax so reduced would otherwise have been payable.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 12.6 shall not apply to payments made pursuant to the Seller Financing Agreement; such payments shall be governed by the provisions of the Seller Financing Agreement.

If any sum due from one Party (for purposes of this Section 12.7, the “payer”) to another Party (for purposes of this Section 12.7, the “payee”) under this Stock Purchase Agreement or pursuant to any final Order relating to this Stock Purchase Agreement, which is not subject to appeal or with respect to which the time for appeal has expired, is required to be converted from the currency in which such sum is payable (the “Payment Currency”) under this Stock Purchase Agreement or pursuant to such Order into another currency (the “Enforcement Currency”) for the purposes of:

(a) making or filing a Claim or proof against the payer;

(b) obtaining an Order in any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction; or

Stock Purchase Agreement

104

EXECUTION VERSION

the payer shall indemnify and hold harmless the payee from and against any Loss suffered or incurred as a result of any difference between: (i) the rate of exchange used for such purpose to convert the sum in question from the Payment Currency into the Enforcement Currency and (ii) the rate of exchange at which the payee would in the Ordinary Course of Business, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, purchase the Payment Currency with the Enforcement Currency upon receipt of a sum paid to such payee in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such Claim, proof or Order.
