AUTOMATICALLY TRANSFERRING TIGER EMPLOYEES

Section 9.1 Without prejudice to SpinCo’s and Direct Sale Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, the Regulations will apply to the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement, including the Internal Reorganization, in the jurisdictions subject to the Regulations. The Parties confirm that it is their intention that the contracts of employment of the Tiger Employees in such jurisdictions (including any rights, powers, duties and Liabilities under or in connection with their contracts) shall, to the extent required by the Regulations, transfer by operation of Applicable Law to the SpinCo Group and Direct Sale Purchaser with effect from such employee’s Employment Commencement Date, and each such Tiger Employee shall be an Automatically Transferring Tiger Employee for the purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

PENSION PLAN FUNDING

Section 10.1 Transferred Pension Plan Final PBO Amount. For purposes of this ARTICLE X, actuarial determinations shall be based upon actuarial assumptions and methodologies used in preparing the most recent audited financial statements of the Company as of the date of the determination (“Company’s GAAP Assumptions”), with the exception that the discount rate used in the Company’s GAAP Assumptions will be adjusted (in a manner consistent with the discount rate calculated in the Company’s GAAP Assumptions) for the movement in the underlying discount rate from the date that the Company’s GAAP Assumptions were originally determined to the Distribution Effective Time. The Company shall cause a qualified actuary (“Company’s Actuary”) to provide a report within forty-five (45) days following the Distribution Effective Time setting forth a detailed calculation and breakdown of its determination of the actuarial present value of the “projected benefit obligation” as defined in Topic 715 in the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (the “PBO”) for each Employee Plan that transfers to the Tiger Group, Parent or one of their Affiliates pursuant to Applicable Law and Transferring

Arrangement that, in each case, is a defined benefit pension or termination indemnity plan (such Employee Plans and Transferring Arrangements, the “Transferred Pension Plans”), as of the Distribution Effective Time and any back-up information reasonably required by Parent or its qualified actuary (“Parent’s Actuary”) to confirm the accuracy of such determination. Unless Parent notifies the Company of an objection to the determination by the Company’s Actuary of the PBO within forty-five (45) days following the Company’s delivery of the determination by the Company’s Actuary, such initial determinations of the PBO will become final and binding on the Company, Parent and their respective Affiliates. If Parent disputes the accuracy of the determinations, Parent and Parent’s Actuary and the Company and the Company’s Actuary shall cooperate to identify the basis for such disagreement and act in good faith to resolve such dispute. If Parent and the Company are able to reach agreement, then they will reduce such agreement to writing and such agreement will become final and binding on the Company, Parent and their respective Affiliates. To the extent that a dispute is unresolved after a forty-five (45)-day period following identification of such dispute, the determinations shall be verified by an independent third-party actuary selected by the mutual agreement of the Company and Parent. The decision of such third-party actuary shall be made within thirty (30) days after its engagement and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company, Parent and their respective Affiliates. The Company and Parent shall share equally the costs of such third-party actuary. The PBO of the Transferred Pension Plans as finally determined in accordance with this Section 10.1 shall be the “Final PBO Amount.”

Section 10.2 Pension Transfer Amounts. Within forty-five (45) days following the Distribution Effective Time, with respect to any Transferred Pension Plan that is funded immediately prior to the Distribution Effective Time, the Company may cause the assets of the trusts or other funding vehicles under such Transferred Pension Plan to be transferred to the corresponding trusts or other funding vehicles of the Tiger Group in the form of cash (or, if mutually agreed by the Company and Parent, in the form of cash equivalents, marketable securities or insurance contracts (to the extent allowable under the terms of such contracts and exclusively intended to cover plan benefits)). The amount of assets actually transferred to the trust or other funding vehicle of the Tiger Group pursuant to this Section 10.2 with respect to each Transferred Pension Plan is referred to as the “Pension Transfer Amount.”

Section 10.3 Reimbursement for Underfunding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to each Transferred Pension Plan, in the event the Pension Transfer Amount is less than the Final PBO Amount with respect to such plan, the Company will pay to Parent a cash amount equal to such deficit within thirty (30) days after the determination of the Final PBO Amount with respect to such plan.
