(b) For purposes of the calculation described in Section 2.6(a) above, the Royalties with respect to each Assigned Contract shall have been or be earned by Seller and Buyer, and the Seller Marketing Fees with respect to each applicable Assigned Contract shall have been or be payable by Seller and Buyer, pro rata based on the percentage of the applicable royalty period for each such Assigned Contract during which Seller or Buyer, as applicable, owned the Assigned Contract.

(c) If the Royalties earned by the Seller on or prior to the Closing Date but not yet collected exceed the amount of the Royalties collected by the Seller as of the Closing Date (excluding any applicable VAT), then with respect to such Assigned Contract, Buyer shall remit the amount of the difference to Seller out of Royalties actually collected by Buyer (provided that Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect such amounts) by check or wire transfer within the later of ten (10) days of the Final Reconciliation, or if such Royalties have not yet been collected by Buyer, ten (10) days after the date such Royalties are collected (if they are collected). If the Royalties collected by the Seller as of the Closing Date for periods after the Closing Date (excluding any applicable VAT) exceed the Royalties earned by the Seller on or prior to the Closing Date but not yet collected, with respect to such Assigned Contract, Seller shall remit the amount of the difference to Buyer by check or wire transfer within ten (10) days of the Final Reconciliation. If the Seller Marketing Fees payable by Seller on or prior to the Closing Date but not yet paid exceed the amount of Seller Marketing Fees paid by the Seller as of the Closing Date (excluding any applicable VAT), with respect to such Assigned Contract, Seller shall remit the amount of the difference to Buyer by check or wire transfer within ten (10) days of the Final Reconciliation. If the Seller Marketing Fees paid by Seller as of the Closing Date (excluding any applicable VAT) exceed the Seller Marketing Fees payable by the Seller on or prior to the Closing Date, with respect to such Assigned Contract, Buyer shall remit the amount of the difference to Seller by check or wire transfer within ten (10) days of the Final Reconciliation.

Section 2.7 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date in accordance with Schedule 2.7, provided such allocation is reasonable, and otherwise in a manner that shall be reasonably agreed upon by the Buyer and Seller prior to the Closing. For all tax purposes, Buyer and the Seller agree to report (and cause their respective Affiliates to report) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including the allocation to be reasonably agreed upon by the Buyer and Seller, and that neither of them (nor any of their respective Affiliates) will take any position inconsistent therewith in any tax return, in any refund claim, in any litigation or otherwise, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

Section 2.8 Third Party Consents.

(a) To the extent that the consent of another Person is required by the terms of any Assigned Contract or applicable law in order to assign the rights of Seller under that Assigned Contract to Buyer (a “Required Consent”), Seller shall use all reasonable efforts to obtain such Required Consent as promptly as possible, at its own expense, and without agreeing to any change in the terms of the applicable Assigned Contract without Buyer’s prior written consent. Buyer shall cooperate with and use all reasonable efforts to assist Seller in obtaining such Required Consents, but Buyer will not be required to make any payments or agree to any change in the terms of any Assigned Contract in connection with obtaining such Required Consent, provided that consent to such a change shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if a proposed change is not material. Seller shall be permitted to seek a novation in lieu of an assignment with respect to the Assigned Contracts (and Buyer agrees to sign a novation agreement in reasonable and customary form if Seller is able to obtain consent to such novation from the counterparty to the Assigned Contract), but agrees that it will not send any notices or communications to any party to an Assigned Contract seeking a novation or otherwise seeking their consent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby unless it is in substantially the same form as Buyer has approved, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as such notice does not suggest that such consent is a Required Consent.

(b) Seller shall be responsible for obtaining such Required Consents, and accordingly if a Required Consent is not obtained within the initial nine month period following the Closing, and during such period, as a result, under the terms of the Assigned Contract and applicable law, an Assigned Contract is terminated, or Buyer’s rights with respect to such Assigned Contract are impaired, or Buyer does not in effect obtain the benefit of such Assigned Contract, notwithstanding Buyer’s performance of (or willingness to perform) the obligations under such Assigned Contract, Buyer shall have a claim against Seller and Parent under Section 9.1 for breach of their covenant hereunder in the amount of the minimum guaranteed royalties under such Assigned Contract for the duration of the remaining current term under such Assigned Contract, plus Buyer’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with pursuing such claim under Section 9.1.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing section (but without duplication of any Losses), within the initial nine month period following the Closing, if any other party to an Assigned Contract alleges that due to the failure to obtain a Required Consent or novation, an Assigned Contract is terminated, an assignment of an Assigned Contract (or an alternative arrangement described in Section 2.8(d) below) was ineffective and that as a result the Assigned Contract has thus been breached or is no longer in effect, or Buyer’s rights with respect to such

Assigned Contract are impaired, or Buyer does not in effect obtain the benefit of such Assigned Contract, notwithstanding Buyer’s performance of (or willingness to perform) the obligations under such Assigned Contract, it shall be treated as a third party claim that is subject to Section 9.2.

(d) Without limiting the foregoing, if Seller is unable to assign an Assigned Contract, Seller shall continue to be obligated to use all reasonable efforts to obtain the necessary consent to assignment, and the assignment of such Assigned Contract shall not take effect until such consent has been obtained, and until such assignment (or a novation) has been effected, Seller shall hold such Assigned Contract in trust for the Buyer, account for and pay or deliver to the Buyer as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt any amounts paid to Seller under such Assigned Contract, and otherwise act in accordance with Buyer’s reasonable requests in accordance with such Assigned Contract, and Buyer shall perform the obligations under such Assigned Contract, and the parties will otherwise cooperate to establish a reasonable arrangement under which Buyer shall obtain the benefits of such Assigned Contract and be responsible for the obligations thereunder that would have been Assumed Liabilities.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing if the party to any Assigned Contract with respect to which a Required Consent has not been obtained accepts performance from Buyer and fails to object within the initial nine months after the Closing, Seller shall have no liability in connection with failure to obtain a Required Consent with respect to such Assigned Contract.

(f) For purposes of this Section 2.8, provided that Buyer offers reasonable cooperation (at no out of pocket cost to Buyer) and performs its obligations under the Transitional Services and License Agreement, from the Closing through May 31, 2013, Seller shall be responsible if there is any failure of the services provided under the Transitional Services and License Agreement to meet the corresponding obligations under the Assigned Agreement, and thereafter Buyer shall be responsible for any failure of such services to meet such obligations.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, only the first $250,000 of any indemnity obligations of Seller and Parent pursuant to this Section 2.8 (in the aggregate) shall be subject to the Basket, and the cap on liability set forth in Section 9.4(b) shall not apply.

From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing or (ii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VIII hereof, Seller, Parent and their Affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly, through any director, officer, employee, investment banker, financial advisor, attorney, accountant or other agent or representative solicit, initiate or encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by furnishing non-public information) any inquiries or the submission of proposals or offers from any person relating to any acquisition or purchase of all or any portion of the ownership interest in Seller or International Subsidiary or of the Purchased Assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or the Business, and, other than with Buyer or any of its Affiliates, participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any other person any information with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist or participate in, facilitate or encourage, any effort or attempt by any other person to do or seek any of the foregoing.

Section 5.11 Employee Matters.

(a) The parties have determined that they do not believe the Transfer Regulations will apply as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer will make offers of employment to those Target Employees it wishes to hire on terms which are overall no less favorable than their terms and conditions of employment immediately prior to the Closing Date, with such offers to take effect on the Closing Date, or, where required in non-EU jurisdictions to ensure continuity of service and avoid mandatory notice and/or severance pay for Seller, Buyer will effect the transfer of Accepting Employees by way of Employer Substitution. Seller shall procure that the Buyer is afforded reasonable access to the Target Employees for the purposes of making offers of employment. With effect from the Closing Date, Seller shall release any Accepting Employee from any obligation to give notice of termination of employment and from any post termination of employment restrictions to the extent necessary to enable an Accepting Employee to take up his or her employment with Buyer. If and to the extent that the Transfer Regulations apply to transfer the contracts of employment of any Accepting Employee(s) from Seller or any of its Affiliates to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any Buyer Supplier, Buyer shall comply, and shall ensure that such Buyer Supplier complies, in all respects with its obligations under the Transfer Regulations, and the contracts of employment of the Accepting Employees shall have effect on and from the Closing Date as if originally made with Buyer or Buyer Supplier (as applicable).

(b) Without prejudice to the Buyer’s right to terminate the employment of any Accepting Employee at any time, and excluding any benefits that would not transfer under the Transfer Regulations, for at least one (1) year following the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide each Accepting Employee with compensation, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment, that are, in the aggregate, no less favorable than their terms and conditions with Seller or its Affiliates immediately prior to Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for at least one (1) year following the Closing Date, each Accepting Employee who remains employed by Buyer or any Affiliate shall be provided with a wage rate or base salary that is at least equal to the wage rate or base salary of the Accepting Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that (i) any applicable Law, (ii) any collective bargaining agreement or other agreement with a works council or other employee representative group, (iii) any employment agreement or (iv) any unilateral undertaking (“engagement unilateral”) or customary practices (“usages”) would require Buyer to provide to any Accepting Employee any more favorable terms of employment than those otherwise provided for by this Section 5.11(b), then Buyer shall provide to such Accepting Employee such more favorable terms;

(c) Without prejudice to Buyer’s right to terminate the employment of any Accepting Employee at any time, for at least one year following the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide to each Accepting Employee full credit (including credit for any payments made by such Accepting Employee under any applicable benefit plan of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates and waiver of any limitations) for such Accepting Employee’s service with Seller or any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing Date for purposes of eligibility for and calculation of benefits (including vacation, notice and severance benefits) under any applicable law or benefit plan in which such Accepting Employee participates following the Closing Date to the same extent recognized by Seller or any of its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing, provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. The Seller shall indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates and any Buyer Supplier and keep them indemnified from and against all Losses arising in connection with or as a result of:

(i) the employment by Seller or any Seller Affiliate of the Accepting Employees (including, without limitation, any rights arising under or in relation to their contracts of employment and any remuneration or benefit accrued to the Accepting Employees) prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) any obligation of the Seller or any Seller Affiliate to inform and consult with the Accepting Employees or their representatives under the Transfer Regulations or other applicable law;

save in each case to the extent that such failure or Loss is caused by a failure of Buyer, Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier to comply with its obligations under the Transfer Regulations or other applicable law; and

(iii) any claim made or brought against Buyer or any Buyer Affiliate or a Buyer Supplier that an Accepting Employee is entitled to Transferred Benefits.

(d) In the event of the termination of the employment of any Accepting Employee by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide the Accepting Employee with severance pay and benefits calculated on the basis of the Accepting Employee’s combined period of service with the Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer and its Affiliates and on terms no less favorable than the greater of the severance pay and benefits to which the Accepting Employee (i) would have been entitled under any applicable severance plan, policy, practice, or arrangement of Seller or any local law or collective agreement applicable to such Accepting Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date or (ii) is entitled to under any applicable severance plan, policy, practice or arrangement of Buyer or any local law or collective agreement applicable to such Accepting Employee on the actual date of termination of the Accepting Employee’s employment (“Severance Pay”):

(i) In the event of the termination of the employment of any Accepting Employee by Buyer or any of its Affiliates after Closing but on or prior to May 31, 2013, Seller shall (without prejudice to Seller’s obligation to pay “Actual Expenses” under Section 6 of the Transitional Services and License Agreement) indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates and keep them indemnified for all Severance Pay arising from such termination.

(ii) In the event of the termination of the employment of any Accepting Employee by Buyer or any of its Affiliates after May 31, 2013 but on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date Seller shall (without prejudice to Seller’s obligation to pay “Actual Expenses” under Section 6 of the Transitional Services and License Agreement) indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates and keep them indemnified for X % of all Severance Pay arising from such termination. X shall be calculated on the basis of the following formula:

A ÷ B = C

C x 100 = X

where A is the duration of the Accepting Employee’s total length of service in complete weeks with Seller or any Seller Affiliate when such Accepting Employee was not engaged wholly or mainly in the Business;

and B is the duration of the Accepting Employee’s total combined length of service in complete weeks with Seller and its Affiliates and Buyer and its Affiliates.

Buyer shall and shall cause any Buyer Affiliate to use all reasonable efforts to mitigate any Severance Pay due including but not limited to cooperation with Seller and Seller’s Affiliates and ensuring that as far as is reasonably practicable any termination resulting in the payment of Severance Pay complies with applicable Laws, a fair procedure is followed and selection for dismissal is carried out in a non-discriminatory manner.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that Buyer or any Buyer Affiliate terminates the employment of any Accepting Employee after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall be responsible for all Severance Pay and Seller gives no indemnity with respect thereto.

(e) If, as a consequence of this Agreement the contract of employment of any Retained Employee is transferred to Buyer or any Buyer Affiliate or any Buyer Supplier by the Transfer Regulations or otherwise by operation of law (or liabilities in respect of any such person’s employment are transferred to the Buyer or any Buyer Affiliate or any Buyer Supplier) or it is alleged that this is the case, Buyer (or Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier, as appropriate):

(i) shall notify Seller as soon as practicable after becoming aware of such transfer or allegation (or Seller shall notify Buyer if Seller becomes aware);

(ii) shall cooperate with Seller (and Seller shall co-operate with such Buyer, Buyer Supplier or Buyer Affiliate ) and encourage such Employee to accept any offer of employment made by Seller;

(iii) may elect to challenge such contention that the Transfer Regulations apply and/or terminate such contract of employment provided that Seller has had an opportunity to offer employment to such Retained Employee and the Retained Employee has had a reasonable opportunity to consider such offer and (subject to any applicable Laws and subject to the Retained Employee in question having alleged a transfer and the Buyer being aware of this) such termination is no later than 90 days after the Closing Date;

(iv) shall use all reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses arising from such termination including but not limited to cooperation with Seller and Seller’s Affiliates and ensuring that as far as is reasonably practicable such termination complies with applicable Laws, a fair procedure is followed and selection for dismissal is carried out in a non-discriminatory manner.

(f) Subject to and conditional upon Buyer’s (or Buyer Affiliate’s or Buyer Supplier’s) compliance in all material respects with Sections 5.11(e)(i) to (iii) (with Buyer having a reasonable period to cure such non-compliance, where capable of cure), Seller shall indemnify Buyer (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates and any Buyer Supplier) and keep Buyer indemnified from and against all Losses which Buyer, any Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier suffers or incurs in connection with or as a result of the transfer of the contract of employment of any Retained Employee to Buyer (or such Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier) as a consequence of this Agreement, howsoever and whenever arising relating to:

(i) the contract of employment of any such Retained Employee or its termination; and

(ii) any duty or liability of Buyer or any Buyer Affiliate or any Buyer Supplier to any such Retained Employee or that Employee’s representative(s), in relation to any matter whatsoever, including, without limitation:

(1) salaries or wages, accrued holiday pay, expenses, benefits (including) Employee Benefit Plans, or payments relating thereto;

(2) any claim for pay in lieu of notice, damages for wrongful, unfair or void dismissal, redundancy pay or other severance payment to which the Retained Employee is entitled and compensation for dismissal payable in accordance with any applicable Laws (including any such claim arising from a dismissal or constructive dismissal which is deemed to have been effected by Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate or a Buyer Supplier as a result of the Transfer Regulations) and any claim regarding the absence of a transfer or arising from any order to reinstate or reemploy such Retained Employee;

(3) any claim arising from any failure to inform and consult with the Retained Employee or the Retained Employee’s representatives in accordance with the Transfer Regulations or otherwise;

(4) any liability in relation to the Retained Employee arising from acts and omissions of Seller or any Seller Affiliate or any Seller subcontractor which occur prior to the Closing Date which transfers to Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate or a Buyer Supplier pursuant to the Transfer Regulations; and

(5) any claim made or brought against Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate or a Buyer Supplier that such Retained Employee is entitled to Transferred Benefits.

If Buyer fails to use (or fails to cause any Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier to use) all reasonable efforts to mitigate in accordance with Section 5.11(e)(iv) the indemnity in this Section 5.11(f) shall not apply in respect of any Losses which are incurred as a result of such failure. All reasonable out of pocket costs incurred by the Buyer in using all reasonable efforts to mitigate shall be reimbursed by Seller.

(g) The parties agree that any Losses incurred by a Buyer Supplier shall be deemed to be Losses incurred by Buyer for the purposes of the indemnities in Section 5.11 above and shall be recoverable by Buyer as such.

(h) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer on any entity or individual who is not a party to this Agreement (including any Employees) any rights whatsoever. Further, nothing in this Agreement is intended to create any obligation to pay any Severance Pay that an Accepting Employee is not entitled to (for instance, if as a result of the underlying reason for the termination of an Accepting Employee, no Severance Pay is owed).

(i) Buyer shall, and shall cause any Buyer Affiliate or Buyer Supplier to, co-operate with Seller, and Seller shall and shall cause any Seller Affiliate or Seller sub-contractor to co-operate in relation to providing such evidence as the other may reasonably require to support a contention that the Transfer Regulations are not applicable.

(j) Seller will discharge any liability to pay any retention or one-off payment (together with all taxes, charges and other levies relating to such payment) relating to or arising as a result of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that is or becomes due or payable to any Accepting Employee or Subsequently Accepting Employee.

In the event that such protective order or other similar remedy is not obtained, the disclosing party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that has been legally compelled, and shall exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such disclosed Confidential Information. The obligation of confidentiality and non-use shall not apply to any information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the receiving party, (ii) is independently developed by the receiving party or (iii) is received in good faith from a third party who is lawfully in possession of such information and has the lawful right to disclose or use it.

(b) by either the Parent or Buyer:

(i) if a court of competent jurisdiction or Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action (which order, decree or ruling the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to lift), in each case permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and non-appealable;

costs and expenses, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and all amounts reasonably paid in investigation, defense or settlement of any of the foregoing (collectively, a “Loss” or “Losses”) arising out of any inaccuracies or misrepresentations in any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant or agreement made by Parent, Seller or International Subsidiary in this Agreement or in any other Document delivered pursuant to this Agreement as of the Closing Date, any of the matters identified on Schedule 9.1 hereto and any Retained Liability; and Buyer (“Buyer Indemnifying Party”) will indemnify and hold Parent, Seller and their Affiliates, and their respective permitted successors and assigns, together with its or their respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”) harmless from and with respect to any and all Losses arising out of any inaccuracies or misrepresentations in any representation or warranty or breach of any covenant or agreement made by Buyer in this Agreement or in any other Document delivered pursuant to this Agreement as of the Closing Date, any Assumed Liability, and any use by Buyer or its Affiliates of the historical samples and kits described in Section 2.2(a).

In the event that Indemnified Party desires to make a claim against Indemnifying Party under Section 9.1 above in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or demand at any time instituted against or made upon Indemnified Party by any third party for which Indemnified Party may seek indemnification hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), Indemnified Party shall promptly notify Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim and of Indemnified Party’s claim of indemnification with respect thereto. Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to notify Indemnified Party in writing if it has elected to undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of their own choosing (subject to the consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and at their sole risk and expense, the good faith settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith; provided: (a) all settlements require the prior reasonable consultation with the Indemnified Party and the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (b) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party, provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party.

If the Indemnifying Party does not make a timely election to undertake the good faith defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim as aforesaid, or if the Indemnifying Party fails to proceed with the good faith defense or settlement of the matter after making such election, then, in either such event, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise (provided that all settlements or compromises require the prior reasonable consultation with the Indemnifying Party and the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) the Third Party Claim at their exclusive discretion, at the risk and expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(a) Indemnifying Party shall not be required to indemnify Indemnified Party hereunder for any Loss arising under this Article IX, except to the extent that (i) an individual Loss exceeds $100,000, and that (ii) the aggregate amount of Losses for which Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX hereto exceeds an amount equal to $2,250,000 (the “Basket”) (it being understood and agreed that the Basket is intended as a deductible, and accordingly the Indemnifying Party shall only be liable if and to the extent that Losses exceed the Basket), provided, however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 9.4(a) shall not apply to indemnification claims arising from (A) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization and Qualification), 3.2 (Authorization), 3.8 (Title), 3.16 (Broker’s Fees and Commissions), and 3.17 (Labor Matters), (B) the indemnities given by the Seller in Section 5.11 (Employee Matters) (C) any covenants made by the Seller herein, (D) the Retained Liabilities or (E) any acts of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional and knowing breach of the Parent, Seller or International Subsidiary, and provided further, that any Losses from indemnification claims arising from any one or more breach(es) of Section 3.7 (Contracts) shall be payable only to the extent the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds $250,000 or the remaining amount of the Basket.

(b) The aggregate amounts payable by Indemnifying Party with respect to all claims for indemnification shall not exceed $22,500,000, provided that the limitations set forth in this Section 9.4(b) shall not apply to indemnification claims arising from (A) any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 3.1 (Organization and Qualification), 3.2 (Authorization), Section 3.7 (Contracts), 3.8 (Title), 3.16 (Broker’s Fees and Commissions), and 3.17 (Labor Matters), (B) the indemnities given by the Seller in Section 5.11 (Employee Matters) (C) any covenants of the Seller, (D) the Retained Liabilities or (E) any acts of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or intentional and knowing breach of the Seller.

The amount of any and all Losses shall be determined net of (i) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under insurance policies with respect to such Losses, in each case, net of costs of collection and related premium increases thereunder, and (ii) any Tax benefits (whether through a refund or a reduction in Taxes otherwise payable) actually realized by the Indemnified Party with respect to the facts or circumstances giving rise to such Losses. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the determination of whether an Indemnified Party has realized a Tax benefit (and the determination of the amount of any such Tax benefit) shall be made in the Indemnified Party’s sole discretion exercised in good faith, and an Indemnifying Party shall have no rights to review the Tax Returns of an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 9.4(c). If requested by the Indemnifying Party in writing, the Indemnified Party shall provide to the Indemnifying Party promptly following such determination a certificate of the CFO or treasurer of the Indemnified Party stating whether the Indemnified Party realized a Tax benefit and the amount of any such Tax benefit.

Section 9.5 Scope of Liability. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that in the absence of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or knowing and intentional breach, its sole remedy against the Parent or Seller for any matter arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is set forth in Section 9.1 hereto and that, except to the extent Buyer has asserted a claim for indemnification prior to the applicable Liability Termination Date, Buyer shall have no remedy against the Parent or Seller or any of their Affiliates for any breach of any provision of this Agreement. In no event shall Parent or Seller have any liability for Losses arising from the use of the Purchased Assets after the Closing (other than such Losses attributable to a breach of the representations and warranties of Parent hereunder or related to a Retained Liability) and in no event shall Parent or Seller have any liability to Buyer with respect to any matter arising out of or contemplated by this Agreement in an amount in excess of the Purchase Price.

Section 9.6 Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal and applicable state income tax purposes, and to the extent permitted by law in the United Kingdom and other relevant jurisdictions, the parties shall report and treat any payments made under this Article IX as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

If and to the extent that VAT is chargeable or non-recoverable on the sale of the UK IP or otherwise on any assets the Buyer shall, against delivery of a VAT invoice in addition to any amount expressed in the Agreement to be payable by the Buyer, pay to the Seller such VAT (including any penalties and interest, other than penalties or interest arising solely from the failure of the Seller to account promptly for VAT to any relevant Tax Authority following that Seller having been placed in the appropriate amount of funds for that purpose by the Buyer). In case Luxembourg VAT becomes non-recoverable arising from a failure of the Seller to provide a valid VAT invoice having been provided with all necessary information by the Global Buyer to do so, such non-recoverable VAT amount (including any penalties and interest) will be paid by the Seller to the Buyer provided that the Global Buyer will first provide the Seller with a reasonable opportunity to remedy the Seller’s alleged failure.

10.3 If any amount paid by the Buyer to the Seller in respect of UK VAT pursuant to this Agreement is subsequently found to have been paid in error, the Seller shall if the Seller has not yet accounted for such UK VAT to HM Revenue and Customs promptly repay such amount to the Buyer, and if the Seller has already so accounted then the Seller shall at the expense of the Buyer use all reasonable efforts to obtain repayment thereof from HM Revenue and Customs, and forthwith on receiving payment from HM Revenue and Customs shall pay to the Buyer the amount repaid (including any interest).

10.4 The Global Buyer warrants to the Seller that it is a relevant business person in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and (without limitation to the generality of the foregoing):

(a) the Global Buyer is a taxable person within the meaning of Article 9 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC;

(b) the Global Buyer is acquiring the UK IP for the purpose of a business to be carried on in Luxembourg;

(c) the Global Buyer is registered for VAT purposes in Luxembourg or as a result of the acquisition of the UK IP will become registered for VAT in Luxembourg, effective from a date on or before the acquisition of the UK IP and will operate the reverse charge in The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg in respect of the acquisition of UK IP for Luxembourg VAT purposes.

10.5 Each of the parties to this Agreement undertakes that they will on request co-operate with the other party in connection with any VAT liability under this Agreement.

10.6 The Buyer shall bear the cost of all Transfer Taxes arising on the transfer of the Purchased Assets under this Agreement. The Buyer shall be responsible for arranging the payment of all such Transfer Taxes, including fulfilling any administrative or reporting obligation imposed by the jurisdiction in question in connection with such payment.

Without limiting the generality of any provisions of this Agreement, the inclusion of any Contracts, liabilities, obligations or other matters in respect of the Seller on any schedules to this Agreement shall not, in any way, create a presumption that such Contracts, liabilities, obligations and other matters constitute Assumed Liabilities hereunder, except as expressly set forth in Section 2.2 of this Agreement.

Section 11.15 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflicts-of-laws rules thereof.
