principles, policies, treatments, categorizations, practices, methods, bases or estimation techniques inconsistent with the Accounting Principles may be used by Seller or Purchaser (or if applicable, the Settlement Accountant) in calculating or determining any such component as the sole purpose of the adjustment contemplated by Section 2.4 is to measure the difference, if any, between the estimate of an amount of an item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement and the actual amount of such item as of the Benchmark Time or Closing, as applicable). No amount shall be included in the calculations of the items in the Post-Closing Statement or the Seller Post-Closing Statement, as applicable, for changes in assets or liabilities of the Acquired Companies as a result of purchase accounting adjustments.

(c)If Purchaser fails to deliver a Post-Closing Statement within the time period contemplated by Section 2.4(a) and such failure has not been cured on or prior to the date that is five (5) days from the date that Purchaser is notified in writing by Seller of such failure, then, at the election of Seller, either (i) the Estimated Closing Statement shall be final and binding on all parties hereto or (ii) not later than the date that is the sixtieth (60th) day following Submission Deadline, Seller shall prepare a written statement that is duly executed by an authorized officer of Purchaser (the “Seller Post-Closing Statement”) setting forth its good faith calculation of (A) Cash as of the Benchmark Time, (B) Indebtedness as of the Benchmark Time, (C) Net Working Capital as of the Benchmark Time, (D) Closing Transaction Expenses and (E) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price, and such resulting calculation shall be final and binding on all parties hereto; provided that so long as Purchaser delivers the Post-Closing Statement within the time period contemplated by Section 2.4(a), Seller shall have no right to prepare a Seller Post-Closing Statement on the grounds that Purchaser did not provide reasonable supporting detail for such Post-Closing Statement. If Seller elects to prepare the Seller Post-Closing Statement, then, until the delivery of the Seller Post-Closing Statement and without limiting Section 7.3 in any respect, Purchaser shall provide Seller with reasonable access to (x) any and all books, records, workpapers, Contracts and other documents of the Acquired Companies relating to Seller’s preparation of the Seller Post-Closing Statement as may be reasonably requested by Seller and (y) the Representatives of the Acquired Companies, in each case, during normal business hours; provided, however, that Purchaser’s accountants shall not be obligated to make any work papers available to Seller except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after Seller has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants.

(d)Upon receipt of the Post-Closing Statement, Seller shall have sixty (60) days (the “Review Period”) to review such Post-Closing Statement and related computations of the Preliminary Cash, the Preliminary Indebtedness, the Preliminary Net Working Capital, the Preliminary Closing Transaction Expenses and the Preliminary Closing Purchase Price. Following the Closing through the date that the Final Closing Statement becomes final and binding in accordance with Section 2.4(f), Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their Representatives retained by Seller shall be permitted to reasonably access and review the books, records, work papers and other documents of the Acquired Companies that are reasonably related to the calculations of Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Closing Transaction Expenses, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies and their Representatives to, cooperate

with and assist Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their Representatives retained by Seller in connection with such review, including by providing reasonable access to such books, records and other documents and making available personnel to the extent reasonably requested, in each case, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours; provided that, if the accountants of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies fail to provide such cooperation, assistance or access, the Review Period shall be extended by one (1) day for each day Purchaser the Acquired Companies fail to provide such cooperation, assistance or access. Xxxxxxxxx agrees that, following the Closing through the date that the Final Closing Statement becomes final and binding in accordance with Section 2.4(f), it will preserve any accounting books, records, policies or procedures on which the Post-Closing Statement is based, or upon which the Final Closing Statement is to be based. The accountants of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to Seller, its Affiliates or any of its or their Representatives except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after the applicable Persons seeking access has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants; provided, further, that, in exercising its rights hereunder, Seller shall conduct itself so as not to unreasonably interfere in the conduct of the business following the Closing, and that Seller acknowledges and agrees that any contact by Seller with officers, directors, employees or Representatives of Purchaser or its Affiliates following the Closing shall be arranged and supervised by designated representatives of Purchaser or its Affiliates unless Purchaser otherwise consents with respect to specific contact. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not be required following the Closing to disclose Seller or its representatives any information that is subject to the attorney-client privilege, attorney work product doctrine, or other applicable privilege or where any such disclosure would violate any applicable Legal Requirement or expose such Person to any liability for disclosure of any personal information or personally identifiable information; provided that Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to allow for access to the extent that doing so does not result in the loss of any such protection or violate any applicable Legal Requirement. If Seller has accepted the Post-Closing Statement in writing or has not given written notice to Purchaser setting forth any objection of Seller to such Post-Closing Statement, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such objection and Seller’s proposed modifications to the Post-Closing Statement (such notice, the “Statement of Objections”) prior to the expiration of the Review Period, then such Post-Closing Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable upon the parties hereto, and shall be deemed the Final Closing Statement for purposes of Section 2.4(f).

(e)In the event that Seller delivers a Statement of Objections to Purchaser prior to the expiration of the Review Period, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objection on Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital or Closing Transaction Expenses, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days following the receipt by Purchaser of the Statement of Objections or such longer period as Purchaser and Seller may mutually agree in writing (the “Consultation Period”). If Seller and Purchaser reach an agreement in writing as to any such objections within the Consultation Period, the amounts so agreed upon shall be final, binding and non-appealable upon the parties hereto and such agreement shall be deemed to be included in the Final Closing Statement for purposes of Section 2.4(f). If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach an agreement in writing as to any such objections within the Consultation

Period, then either Seller or Purchaser may submit such matter to BDO USA, LLP, or if BDO USA, LLP is unable or unwilling to serve in such capacity, such other internationally recognized accounting or consulting firm mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser (in each case, the “Settlement Accountant”), for resolution of those items on the Statement of Objections that remain in dispute (the “Disputed Items”). If, within ten (10) Business Days after the date BDO USA, LLP informs Seller and Purchaser that it is unable or unwilling to serve as the Settlement Accountant, Seller and Purchaser cannot mutually agree on an alternate independent accounting firm to serve as the Settlement Accountant, either Seller or Purchaser may request the American Arbitration Association to appoint as the Settlement Accountant, within fifteen (15) days from the date of such request or as soon as practicable thereafter, a partner in a nationally recognized accounting or consulting firm that is not the auditor, independent accounting firm or otherwise an advisor or consultant to Seller or any of its Affiliates or Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, who is a certified public accountant. If requested by the Settlement Accountant, each of Seller and Xxxxxxxxx agrees that it will enter into a customary engagement letter with the Settlement Accountant and provide customary indemnities in favor of the Settlement Accountant. The Settlement Accountant shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, and shall only consider the Disputed Items. If any Disputed Item is referred to the Settlement Accountant, Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall prepare written reports addressing any Disputed Item and deliver such reports to the Settlement Accountant, and each other within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date the Settlement Accountant is retained. Seller and Purchaser, as applicable, shall have ten (10) Business Days to deliver to the Settlement Accountant, and each other one written rebuttal. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Xxxxxxxxx and Seller, any offers to compromise between Seller and Purchaser, and their respective Representatives regarding the items set forth in the Statement of Objections during the Consultation Period shall constitute confidential settlement discussions pursuant to Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence (as in effect as of the date of this Agreement) and any applicable similar state rule and shall not be submitted to, or considered by, the Settlement Accountant. The Settlement Accountant may not assign a value to any Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either Seller or Purchaser in the Statement of Objections and Post-Closing Statement, respectively, or less than the smallest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either Purchaser or Seller in the Statement of Objections and Post-Closing Statement, respectively. Seller and Purchaser shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Settlement Accountant to deliver a written decision resolving all disagreements as soon as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days after the later of the submission of the (i) written reports and (ii) written rebuttals, if any, or as soon thereafter as practicable; provided that any delay by the Settlement Accountant in delivering a written report shall not affect the validity of such report. The Settlement Accountant’s review and determination shall be (A) limited only to the reports, rebuttals and materials concerning Disputed Items prepared and submitted to the Settlement Accountant by Seller and Purchaser (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review), (B) based solely on such reports, rebuttals and materials submitted by Seller and Purchaser and the basis for Seller’s and Purchaser’s respective positions and (C) in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Agreement, including the Accounting Principles, and consistent with the definitions of Cash, Indebtedness, Net Working Capital and Closing Transaction Expenses contained herein. Neither Seller nor Purchaser shall authorize the Settlement Accountant to modify or amend any term or provision hereof or modify items

previously agreed in writing between Seller and Purchaser. During the review by the Settlement Accountant, each of Seller and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries (including, in the case of Purchaser, the Acquired Companies) and their respective Representatives to, each make available to the Settlement Accountant such information, books, records and work papers as may be reasonably requested by the Settlement Accountant to fulfill its obligations under this Section 2.4(e); provided that the accountants of Seller or Purchaser shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to the Settlement Accountant except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after such Settlement Accountant has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers. A copy of all materials submitted to the Settlement Accountant shall be promptly provided by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, to the other party in the dispute; provided that the accountants of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to the other party except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after such other party has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers. Neither Seller nor Purchaser may disclose to the Settlement Accountant, and the Settlement Accountant may not consider for any purpose, any settlement discussions or settlement offer(s) made by or on behalf of either Seller or Purchaser unless otherwise agreed by Seller and Purchaser. None of Seller, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any ex parte communications or meetings with the Settlement Accountant regarding the subject matter hereof without the other party’s prior written consent. The Settlement Accountant shall have exclusive jurisdiction over, and resort to the Settlement Accountant as provided in this Section 2.4(e) shall be the only recourse and remedy of the parties hereto against one another with respect to, any disputes arising out of the calculation of, and any adjustments to, the Purchase Price; provided that, upon the determination of the Settlement Accountant, such determination may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 13.7. The final determination with respect to all Disputed Items shall be set forth in a written statement by the Settlement Accountant delivered to Seller and Purchaser and, absent mathematical error that is not promptly corrected by the Settlement Accountant or manifest error or fraud, the resolution of the dispute by the Settlement Accountant shall be final, binding and non-appealable on the parties hereto and such determination may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 13.7. The costs and expenses of the Settlement Accountant shall be borne by Seller and Purchaser in proportion to the difference between the Settlement Accountant’s determination of the Purchase Price and the determination of the Purchase Price claimed by Seller and Purchaser. For example, if Seller claims that the Purchase Price is, in the aggregate, $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Purchaser and if the Settlement Accountant ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding to Seller an aggregate of $300 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Settlement Accountant will be allocated 30% to Purchaser and 70% to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and Purchaser shall each be responsible for one half of any initial retainers or other fees and expenses of the Settlement Accountant, subject to reallocation by the Settlement Accountant at the conclusion of the proceeding as set forth immediately above.

(f)The “Final Closing Statement” shall mean (i) the Estimated Closing Statement in the event that Purchaser has failed to deliver the Post-Closing Statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Seller elects for the Estimated Closing

Statement to be final and binding in accordance with Section 2.4(c), (ii) the Post-Closing Statement (A) in the event that Seller has accepted the Post-Closing Statement in writing or does not deliver a Statement of Objections prior to the expiration of the Review Period, (B) as agreed to in writing by Seller and Purchaser in accordance with Section 2.4(e), or (C) as determined by the Settlement Accountant in accordance with Section 2.4(e) or (iii) the Seller Post-Closing Statement in the event that Purchaser has failed to deliver the Post-Closing Statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Seller elects to deliver a Seller Post-Closing Statement in accordance with Section 2.4(c) and (1) the Cash set forth on such Final Closing Statement shall be deemed the final Cash, (2) the Indebtedness set forth on such Final Closing Statement shall be deemed the final Indebtedness (the “Final Closing Indebtedness”), (3) the Net Working Capital set forth on such Final Closing Statement shall be deemed the final Net Working Capital (the “Final Closing Net Working Capital”), (4) the Closing Transaction Expenses set forth on such Final Closing Statement shall be deemed the final Closing Transaction Expenses (the “Final Closing Transaction Expenses”) and (5) the Purchase Price set forth on such Final Closing Statement shall be deemed the final Purchase Price (the “Final Purchase Price”).

(g)In the event that the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Closing Purchase Price (such excess, the “Final Overage”), Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the Final Overage and the Final Closing Statement, to the Share Seller (or its designee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Final Overage.

(h)In the event that the Closing Purchase Price is greater than the Final Purchase Price (such excess, the “Final Underage”), the Share Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, within five (5) Business Days of the determination of the Final Underage and the Final Closing Statement, to Purchaser (or its designee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Final Underage.

2.5Withholding. Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Legal Requirements. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date of this Agreement, no withholding Taxes are expected to be applicable to the payment of the Purchase Price (other than any obligation to withhold in respect of payments that are in the nature of compensation to employees or other services providers); provided that Seller delivers the documentation required pursuant to Section 3.2(e). To the extent Purchaser becomes aware of any obligation to withhold (other than any obligation to withhold in respect of payments that are in the nature of compensation or result from Seller’s failure to deliver the documentation required pursuant to Section 3.2(e)), it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide reasonable advance notice to Seller of the amounts subject to withholding and provide Seller with a reasonable opportunity to deliver any forms, documentation or other evidence that would reduce or eliminate such withholding Tax under Legal Requirements and shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in connection therewith. To the extent any amounts are deducted and withheld by Purchaser under this Section 2.5 and paid over to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable Legal Requirements, such amounts shall be treated

for purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Attached hereto as Exhibit D is a true, accurate and complete copy of the binder agreement (the “R&W Binder Agreement”) for the buyer-side representations and warranties insurance policy(ies) (the “R&W Insurance Policy”) including the form of the R&W Insurance Policy.

Purchaser shall, upon the request of Seller, keep Seller informed on a current and timely basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to obtain the Debt Financing and of developments concerning the timing of the closing of the Debt Financing. Without limiting the

generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall give Seller prompt written notice (A) of any actual or threatened (in writing) violation, breach or default (or, to Purchaser’s Knowledge, any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any violation, breach or default) by any party to the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement or any termination of the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement, (B) of any actual or threatened (in writing) reduction, withdrawal, repudiation or termination of the Debt Financing by any party to the Debt Financing Commitment or (C) if at any time for any reason Purchaser has determined in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Required Amount of the Debt Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within two (2) Business Days following delivery by Seller to Purchaser of written request therefor, Purchaser shall provide any information reasonably requested by Seller relating to any circumstance referred to in clauses (A) through (C) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(b)Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of Seller: (i) amend, modify, supplement, or waive any of the conditions to funding contained in the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement or any other provision of, or remedies under, the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement, in each case, to the extent such amendment, modification or supplement could reasonably be expected to have the effect of (A) reducing the amount of the Debt Financing to an amount less than the Required Amount, (B) otherwise adversely affecting the ability of Purchaser in any material respect to timely consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the ability to pay the Required Amount in full, (C) adding new or additional conditions or amending, modifying or supplementing any of the existing conditions to the Debt Financing, (D) delaying, preventing or impeding the Closing or making the timely funding of the Debt Financing (in an amount no less than the Required Amount) or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Required Amount under the Debt Financing less likely to occur or (E) adversely affecting the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment or the Definitive Agreements (the effects described in clauses (A) through (E), collectively, the “Prohibited Modification”); or (ii) terminate the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement; provided, however, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Section 6.8, Purchaser may (1) amend, modify, supplement or waive any provision of the Debt Commitment Documents to add Financing Sources that have not executed the Debt Commitment Documents as of the date hereof, (2) amend the Definitive Agreements to implement any flex provisions contained in the Debt Financing Commitment or (3) otherwise amend, modify or supplement the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement so long as such amendment, modification or supplement could not effect a Prohibited Modification. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Seller copies of any such amendment, modification, supplement or replacement (with customary redactions solely to the extent consistent with the requirements under Section 5.6). In the event Purchaser amends, modifies, supplements or replaces the Debt Financing Commitment or any Definitive Agreement in accordance with this Section 6.8, references to “Debt Financing,” “Financing Sources,” “Definitive Agreements,” and “Debt Financing Commitment” (and other like terms in this Agreement) as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the Debt Financing Commitment and/or Definitive Agreement as so amended, modified or supplemented.

In the event all conditions to the Debt Financing Commitment have been satisfied (or waived) and all of the conditions set forth in Section 10.1 and Section 10.3 (not including conditions which are to be satisfied by the delivery of documents, or taking of any other action, at the Closing by any party) have been satisfied (or waived), Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Financing Sources to fund the Debt Financing in an amount no less than the Required Amount for purposes of consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c)If all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable for any reason, Purchaser shall (i) notify Seller in writing of such event and the reasons giving rise to such event, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, (ii) use reasonable best efforts, and cause each of its Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts, to arrange and obtain, as promptly as possible following the occurrence of such event, alternative financing for any such unavailable portion of the Debt Financing from the same or alternative sources (it being understood that Purchaser shall not be required to pay fees, economics, or other amounts in excess of that contemplated by the Debt Commitment Documents, and the related fee letters and engagement letters, in effect on the date of this Agreement), which may include one or more of a loan financing, an offering and sale of notes, or any other financing or offer and sale of other debt securities, or any combination thereof, (A) in an amount sufficient, when added to any portion of the Debt Financing that is and will be available, that is equal to or greater than the Required Amount, (B) on terms no less favorable to Purchaser than the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof (taking into account any flex provisions contained therein), (C) containing conditions that (1) are not more onerous to Purchaser than those conditions contained in the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof and (2) could not reasonably be expected to delay the Closing and (D) which does not contain any Prohibited Modification (any such alternative financing, the “Alternative Debt Financing”) and (iii) obtain a new financing commitment letter (together with its related term sheets and fee letters, the “Alternative Debt Financing Commitment”) or a new definitive agreement with respect thereto that provides for such Alternative Debt Financing. In the event Purchaser obtains Alternative Debt Financing in accordance with this Section 6.8, references to “Debt Financing,” “Financing Sources,” and “Definitive Agreements” (and other like terms in this Agreement) as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Alternative Debt Financing (and consequently the term “Debt Financing” shall include any available portion of the then-existing Debt Financing and the Alternative Debt Financing), and the term “Debt Financing Commitment” as used in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Alternative Debt Financing Commitment.

(d)Without limitation to any other obligation of Purchaser and its Affiliates under this Agreement, prior to, and from and after the commencement of the Initial Marketing Period, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account market conditions, the cost of funding into escrow, the expected timing to Closing and such other factors as Purchaser in good xxxxx xxxxx commercially reasonable) to obtain, at or prior to the conclusion of the Initial Marketing Period, the proceeds of the Debt Financing in an amount equal to at least the Required Amount on the terms and subject only to the conditions set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment; provided that, the decision to obtain the Debt Financing during the Initial Marketing Period shall be the sole decision of Purchaser. During the Initial Marketing

Period, Purchaser shall consult with, and provide reasonably frequent updates on its financing efforts, to the Chief Financial Officer of Seller.

(e)Purchaser expressly acknowledges and agrees that (i) obtaining the Debt Financing is not a condition to the Closing and (ii) notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser’s obligations hereunder are not conditioned in any manner upon Purchaser obtaining the Debt Financing, or any other financing.

Seller or any of its Affiliates may, to be effective at the Closing, amend any insurance policies (other than any insurance policies held solely in the name of the Acquired Companies) in the manner it deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 6.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall direct any insurers for any third-party Insurance Policies (other than any self-insurance, fronted insurance or captive insurance policy or program) affording coverage for the Acquired Companies or the Business to continue to process any claims made thereunder by the Acquired Companies or the Business to the extent such claims were made prior to the Closing and cooperate with Purchaser following the Closing in connection therewith, and any such claims shall be further subject to Section 6.10(c) mutatis mutandis.

(c)From and after the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause the other members of the Seller Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts, to make any available coverage under the Seller Group’s occurrence-based insurance policies other than any self-insurance, fronted insurance or captive insurance (such policies “Available Insurance Policies”), available to the Acquired Companies with respect to claims arising out of events which have occurred, or conditions which are in existence, prior to the Closing relating to the Acquired Companies, the Business, Business Employees or former employees of the Acquired Companies (such claims “Pre-Closing Claims”), including noticing claims to and reasonably cooperating with the applicable insurer(s) and remitting proceeds to the Acquired Companies, subject to the terms and conditions of such Available Insurance Policies; provided that (i) all applicable deductibles or retentions under any such Available Insurance Policies shall be shared in the same proportion as any insurance proceeds actually received by the Seller Group, on the one hand, and the Acquired Companies, on the other hand, with respect to any one claim (or related claims) under the relevant Available Insurance Policy, (ii) except as expressly set forth in the prior clause (i), Purchaser shall exclusively bear the amount of any claims handling fees or any other amounts payable or to be retained or incurred under any such Available Insurance Policies associated with Pre-Closing Claims, (iii) Seller and its Affiliates shall not be liable for any uninsured or uncovered amounts of such Pre-Closing Claims; (iv) the Acquired Companies shall not, without the express written consent of Seller, amend, modify or waive any rights of Seller or other insureds under any such Available Insurance Policies; (v) Seller shall have the right to reasonably monitor any such Pre-Closing Claims under the Available Insurance Policies, and the Acquired Companies shall keep Seller reasonably apprised of any such Pre-Closing Claims under the Available Insurance Policies; (vi) upon Seller’s request, Purchaser and the Acquired Companies shall provide Seller with reasonable documentation and information regarding any Pre-Closing Claim under an Available Insurance Policy, including with respect to the amount of the claimed loss or damage; (vii) upon Purchaser’s request, Seller shall provide Purchaser with reasonable documentation and information regarding any Pre-Closing Claim or Available Insurance Policy; and (viii) the Acquired Companies shall not assign any Available Insurance Policies or any rights or claims under the Available Insurance Policies.

(d)Prior to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in obtaining any insurance, including any “tail” insurance with respect to matters existing, occurring or arising at or prior to the Closing, related to any Acquired Company or the Business (other than the “tail” insurance contemplated in Section 7.4(b), which insurance is addressed in Section 7.4(b)); provided that failure of Purchaser to obtain any such insurance shall not delay the Closing or be the basis for any claim that the conditions in Section 10.1 have not been satisfied.

6.11R&W Insurance Policy. Purchaser has conditionally bound the R&W Insurance Policy pursuant to the R&W Binder Agreement. At the Closing, or promptly thereafter, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a copy of the R&W Insurance Policy.

6.12Registered Office Addresses. To the extent an Acquired Company uses any facility address of Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) as a registered office address, at Purchaser’s written request, Seller shall, at Purchaser’s sole cost and

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES

7.1Transitional Trademark Rights.

(a)The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that, subject to Section 7.1(b), Section 7.1(c) and Section 7.6, (i) the Acquired Companies, as of the Closing, do not and will not have any right, title or interest (whether express or implied) in, to or under any Seller Group Mark (except for any portion thereof that is Acquired Company IP), and (ii) Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) shall have no right, title or interest in or to, or right to use, and Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that it and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) will not hereafter adopt, use, apply to register or register, or authorize others to adopt, use, apply to register or register, any such Seller Group Marks. Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall, following Closing, (A) have any rights in or to any Trademarks included in the Acquired Company IP, and shall not hereafter adopt, use, apply to register or register, or authorize others to adopt, use, apply to register or register, any such Trademarks, or (B) contest the ownership or validity of any rights of the Acquired Companies or Purchaser in or to any such Trademarks.

(b)Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in Section 7.1(a), no later than twenty (20) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to, and the Acquired Companies shall, change their names and cause their certificates of incorporation (or equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, to be amended to remove any reference to the Seller Group Marks.

(c)Promptly (and in any event, within six (6) months) after the Closing Date (the “Transition Period”) or a reasonable extension of time as the parties may otherwise agree in writing in good faith, Purchaser shall, and Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates to, cease use of the Seller Group Marks in use as of the Closing Date and take commercially reasonable actions to remove, obliterate or cover up the Seller Group Marks from the any vehicles, equipment,

business cards, purchase orders and invoices, schedules, stationary, business cards, labels, packaging materials, displays, signs, promotional materials, manuals, forms, websites, email, computer software and other materials (collectively, the “Trade Materials”); provided, however, that (i) Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Acquired Companies after Closing) to, comply with all reasonable instructions of Seller relating to such utilization of the Seller Group Marks that the Acquired Companies were subject to prior to the Closing Date or that otherwise apply to the Seller Group’s use of the Seller Group Marks and (ii) neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Acquired Companies after Closing) shall develop new Trade Materials bearing the Seller Group Marks, it being agreed that Purchaser and the Acquired Companies may continue producing and manufacturing of any Trade Materials in use prior to Closing that bear the Seller Group Marks in connection with their continued operation of the Business during the Transition Period, so long as such use is consistent with the use by the Business prior to Closing (including, for clarity, with respect to the presentation of the Seller Group Marks). Any use by the Acquired Companies of any of the Seller Group Marks as permitted in this Section 7.1(c) is subject to their use of the Seller Group Marks in the same form and manner, and with the same standards of quality, of that used by the Acquired Companies immediately prior to Closing.

(d)Following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall immediately cause the Acquired Companies to cease to hold themselves out as having any affiliation with the Seller Group, except that at any and all times after Closing, Purchaser and the Acquired Companies shall be permitted to communicate to third parties that Purchaser has purchased the Acquired Companies from Seller and reference such name in such communications. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and without limiting the rights otherwise granted in Section 7.1(c), nothing shall prevent Purchaser or its Affiliates from using any Trademark (i) to refer to the historical fact that the Business was previously conducted under those Seller Group Marks under which it was conducted; (ii) to the extent already shipped to or in use by customers of Seller or its Affiliates or required or permitted under Contracts of Seller or its Affiliates as of the Closing or required or permitted under Contracts of Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, for clarity, any of the Acquired Companies); and (iii) to the extent required by or permitted as a fair use or otherwise under applicable Legal Requirement (including historical references).

7.2IP Licenses.

(a)Effective as of the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby grants to each of the Acquired Companies a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable (including through multiple tiers for use in connection with the operation of the Business but not for the independent use by third parties), and royalty-free license to use and exploit all rights under any Intellectual Property (other than Trademarks) owned by Seller Group and its Affiliates as of the Closing that is not Acquired Company IP but was used in the Business within the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing, for use in connection with the conduct of the Business and evolutions and extensions of such Business. The foregoing license is assignable, in whole or in part, in connection with the sale or transfer of any business or assets of the Acquired Companies to which the license relates.

(b)Effective as of the Closing, each of the Acquired Companies hereby grants to Seller a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable (including through multiple tiers for use in connection with the operation of the businesses of Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Business) but not for the independent use by third parties), and royalty-free license to use and exploit all rights under any Patents, Copyrights and Trade Secrets, in each case, included in the Acquired Company IP that was used in the businesses of Seller and its Subsidiaries within the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing, for use in connection with the conduct of the businesses of Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Business) solely as conducted as of the Closing Date and evolutions and extensions of such businesses. The foregoing license is assignable, in whole or in part, in connection with the sale or transfer of any business or assets of Seller or its Subsidiaries to which the license relates.

7.3Post-Closing Access to Information.

(a)From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies and its other Affiliates to, afford the Seller Group and their respective Representatives, during normal business hours, upon reasonable request and advance notice, reasonable access to the employees, books, records and properties of each Acquired Company, their Affiliates and the Business, and to make copies of such books and records at Seller’s expense, to the extent that such access is requested in connection with financial statements, Taxes, any potential Proceeding or investigation by or before a Governmental Authority or other Governmental Authority reporting obligations with respect to periods occurring prior to or upon the Closing; provided that the foregoing shall not apply (i) with respect to any information the disclosure of, or access to, which would waive any privilege, violate any Legal Requirement or breach any duty of confidentiality owed to any Person; provided that Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to allow for access to the extent that doing so does not result in the loss of any such privilege or violate or breach any such Legal Requirement or duty; or (ii) if such access is sought pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any pending, threatened, or potential claim or Proceeding against Purchaser or its Subsidiaries.

(b)Xxxxxxxxx agrees to hold, and to cause the Acquired Companies to hold, all the books and records of the Acquired Companies and the Business existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any such books and records for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by Legal Requirement, and thereafter, if any Acquired Company desires to destroy or dispose of such books and records, to offer first in writing at least sixty (60) days prior to such destruction or disposition to surrender them to Seller.

7.4D&O Insurance.

(a)From and after the Closing until the date that is six (6) years after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to, and the Acquired Companies shall, maintain in effect the provisions regarding indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability as set forth in the certificate of incorporation, articles of association, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Acquired Companies that have been made available to Purchaser prior to the date hereof, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the

rights thereunder (if any) of any past or present officer or director of any Acquired Company (each, a “D&O Indemnitee”) without his/her written consent except to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirement; provided that, from and after the Closing, all rights of the D&O Indemnitees to and regarding such indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability shall be mandatory rather than permissive. For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxxxxxx shall cause the Acquired Companies to maintain in effect such provisions for any claim made by a D&O Indemnitee prior to the expiration of the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing until such claim has been finally resolved.

(b)At or prior to the Closing, Seller shall, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, obtain six (6)-year irrevocable and non-cancellable directors’ and officers’ liability, employment practices liability and fiduciary liability “tail” insurance covering the D&O Indemnitees and any other natural persons who are covered by the directors’ and officers’ liability, employment practices liability and fiduciary liability insurance maintained by or for the benefit of the Acquired Companies in effect as of the Closing (such persons “Insured Persons” and such insurance “Current Insurance”), with respect to any actual or alleged error, misstatement, misleading statement, act, omission, circumstance, event, neglect, breach of duty or any other matter claimed against an Insured Person, in each case, that actually or allegedly existed or occurred at or prior to the Closing (including in connection with the approval or execution of any Transaction Document or the Transactions, or arising out of, relating to or resulting from any Transaction Document and the Transactions), on terms and conditions, including limits and retentions, substantially equivalent to the Current Insurance with respect to Insured Persons; provided that if such “tail” insurance is not reasonably available, then Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, shall obtain the most advantageous coverage that is reasonably available. Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to, and the Acquired Companies shall, maintain such “tail” insurance in full force and effect from and after the Closing and shall not, and shall cause the Acquired Companies not to, amend the terms and conditions of such “tail” insurance in any manner that may be adverse to the Insured Persons.

(c)With respect to any indemnification obligations of the Acquired Companies pursuant to this Section 7.4, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Acquired Companies shall be the indemnitors of first resort with respect to all indemnification obligations of the Acquired Companies pursuant to this Section 7.4 (i.e., their obligations to an applicable D&O Indemnitee are primary, and any obligation of any other Person to advance expenses or to provide indemnification and/or insurance for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by such D&O Indemnitee are secondary) and (ii) Purchaser shall cause the Acquired Companies to, and the Acquired Companies shall, irrevocably waive, relinquish and release Seller or any of its Affiliates from any and all claims for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof; provided that nothing in this Agreement is intended to relieve, or shall be construed as relieving, any insurer of its obligations under any insurance policy.

(d)If, following the Closing until the date that is six (6) years after the Closing Date, Purchaser or any Acquired Company or any of their respective successors or assigns: (i) shall consolidate with or merge into any other corporation or entity and shall not be

the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) shall transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each such case, proper provision shall be made to ensure that the successors and assigns of Purchaser or such Acquired Company or any of its respective successors or assigns, as the case may be, shall assume all of the respective obligations set forth in this Section 7.4.

(e)The rights of the D&O Indemnitees under this Section 7.4 shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights such D&O Indemnitee may have under the organizational documents of the Acquired Companies, or under any applicable contracts or Legal Requirements, and Purchaser shall cause each of the Acquired Companies to, and the Acquired Companies shall, honor and perform under all indemnification agreements entered into by the Acquired Companies as in effect as of the date of this Agreement, which have been made available to Purchaser prior to the date hereof.

(f)The obligations of Purchaser and the Acquired Companies under this Section 7.4 shall not be terminated, amended or modified in any manner so as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnitee (including such Person’s successors, heirs and legal representatives) to whom this Section 7.4 applies without the written consent of such affected D&O Indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the D&O Indemnitee to whom this Section 7.4 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 7.4, and this Section 7.4 shall be enforceable by such D&O Indemnitee and their respective successors, heirs and legal representatives and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Purchaser and each Acquired Company).

7.5Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a)Subject to Section 7.5(b), as a material inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly (whether by itself, through an Affiliate or in partnership or conjunction with or for, or as a member, owner, consultant or agent of, any other Person):

(i)for a period of four (4) years following the Closing Date, undertake, manage, participate in, carry on or be engaged in, or in any manner own, operate, or, with respect to any Competing Business Activities, advise, assist or consult with, or have an interest in, any other Person that, directly or indirectly, undertakes, manages, participates in, carries on or is engaged in, any Competing Business Activities anywhere in the world, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; and

(ii)(A) for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, solicit, entice, encourage or influence, or attempt to solicit, entice, encourage or influence, or attempt to solicit, entice, encourage or influence, any of individuals listed on Schedule 7.5(a)(ii)(A) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Senior Management of the Business”) to resign or otherwise leave the employ of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies or otherwise hire, employ, engage or contract with any member of the Senior Management of the Business to perform services other than for the benefit of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies or (B) for a period of two (2) years following

the Closing Date, solicit, entice, encourage or influence, or attempt to solicit, entice, encourage or influence, or attempt to solicit, entice, encourage or influence, any Transferred Employee to resign or otherwise leave the employ of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies or otherwise hire, employ, engage or contract with any Transferred Employee to perform services other than for the benefit of Purchaser or the Acquired Companies.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 7.5(a)(ii), Sellers and their Affiliates shall not be prohibited from or restricted in any way with respect to: (i) advertising job openings by use of newspapers, magazines, the Internet and other media not specifically directed at individual Transferred Employees or hiring any such Transferred Employees as a result thereof; (ii) hiring or soliciting any Transferred Employee who has terminated employment with Purchaser, the Acquired Companies or any Affiliate thereof, at least nine (9) months prior to the date of first contact by Seller or its Affiliates with such Transferred Employee, or whose employment has been terminated by Purchaser, the Acquired Companies or any Affiliate thereof, so long as there was no solicitation prohibited hereunder by Seller or its Affiliates prior thereto; (iii) continuing to engage in any business (other than the Business) that Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) engages in as of the date of this Agreement, including the operations set forth on Schedule 7.5(b)(iii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule; (iv) holding as a passive investment not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting securities of any company (whether public or private) that is primarily engaged in Competing Business Activities; or (v) acquiring (in a single transaction or series of related transactions) any Person that is, or has a subsidiary, division, group, franchise or segment that is, engaged in any Competing Business Activity and, following such acquisition, actively engaging in any such Competing Business Activity, so long as for the most recent fiscal year ended prior to the date of such acquisition, the revenues derived from the Competing Business Activities were less than fifteen percent (15%) of the total consolidated revenues of such Person.

(c)Seller expressly acknowledges that (i) each of the restrictions contained in this Section 7.5 are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to subject matter, geographical scope and time period) and such restrictions are necessary to protect Purchaser’s interest in, and value of, the Acquired Companies’ businesses (including the goodwill inherent therein), (ii) Seller is primarily responsible for the creation of such value, (iii) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute good, valid and binding consideration for Seller’s obligations, covenants and agreements contained in this Section 7.5 and (iv) Purchaser would not have entered into this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby without the restrictions contained in this Section 7.5 and this Section 7.5 being in full force and effect and binding and enforceable covenants of Seller. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the time period of any of the foregoing covenants is too lengthy or the geographic coverage or scope of any of the covenants is too broad, the restrictive time period will be deemed to be the longest period permissible under applicable Legal Requirement and the geographic coverage and scope will be deemed to comprise the largest coverage and scope permissible under applicable Legal Requirements. With respect to each restrictive covenant, the contemplated restricted period shall be extended during the term of any breach of such restrictive covenant.

7.6Further Assurances.

(a)From time to time following the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies) to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all reasonable further conveyances, notices, assumptions, releases and acquittances and such other instruments, and shall take such reasonable actions as may be necessary or appropriate to make effective the Transactions as may be reasonably requested by any other party hereto; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided in any Transaction Document, nothing in this Section 7.6 shall require any party hereto or any of their respective Affiliates to expend any money, commence or participate in any Proceeding, incur liabilities or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party following the Closing.

Following the Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly deliver to Seller (A) any mail, packages, orders, inquiries and other communications addressed to Seller or any of its Affiliates or relating to a business, product line or asset of Seller or its Affiliates other

than the Business (to the extent not primarily related to the Business) and (B) any assets or property that Purchaser or its Affiliates receive and that properly belongs to Seller or any of its Affiliates (including any assets or property of Seller or its Affiliates that are not primarily related to the Business).

ARTICLE VIII

TAX MATTERS

8.1Section 338(h)(10) Election; Purchase Price Allocation.

(a)Purchaser and Seller shall join in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections under state, local, or non-U.S. tax law) with respect to the acquisition of the Acquired Companies pursuant to this Agreement (the “Section 338(h)(10) Election”). Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall take any action that would prevent or impede, or could reasonably be expected to prevent or impede, the timely making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(b)Purchaser and Seller shall (and shall cause their relevant Affiliates to) cooperate in the preparation of IRS Form 8023 and all other forms, attachments and schedules necessary to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) Election (including any analogous forms required to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) Election for state or local Tax purposes) (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Forms”). Purchaser and Seller shall (or shall cause their relevant Affiliates to) file such Section 338(h)(10) Forms with the applicable Tax Authorities in accordance with applicable Legal Requirement. Each of Purchaser and Seller agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, revoke the Section 338(h)(10) Election following the filing of the Section 338(h)(10) Forms without the prior written consent of Seller and Purchaser, respectively.

(c)Prior to the Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall agree on the form and content of, and at Closing, Purchaser and Seller shall each deliver to the other party, all duly executed Section 338(h)(10) Election Forms.

(d)For all Tax purposes, Purchaser and Seller agree to (and agree to cause their respective Affiliates to) treat the sale of the shares of the Acquired Companies pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.338(h)(10)-1 (the “Transaction Tax Treatment”).

(e)Purchase Price Allocation.

(i)For all Tax purposes, no later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Final Purchase Price is finally determined hereunder, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a proposed allocation of the Final Purchase Price (and any amounts treated as part of the consideration for the Shares and the IP Seller IP for applicable Tax purposes), which allocation shall incorporate, reflect and be consistent with the Transaction Tax Treatment, and be determined in a manner consistent with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Purchaser’s Draft Allocation”). Purchaser’s Draft Allocation shall include the amount allocated to the IP Seller IP. If Seller disagrees with Purchaser’s Draft Allocation, Seller may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Purchaser’s Draft Allocation, deliver a notice (the “Seller’s Allocation Notice”) to Purchaser to such effect, specifying those items as to which Seller disagrees and setting forth Seller’s proposed allocation of the Final Purchase Price (and other relevant amounts). If the Seller’s Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Purchaser and Seller shall, during the twenty (20) days following such delivery, negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the allocation of the Final Purchase Price (and other relevant amounts). If Purchaser and Seller are unable to reach such agreement, any such disputed items or amounts shall be resolved by the Settlement Accountant pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(e), applied mutatis mutandis; provided that any such allocation shall incorporate, reflect and be consistent with the Transaction Tax Treatment. The allocation of the Final Purchase Price (and other relevant amounts) as prepared by Purchaser if no Seller’s Allocation Notice has been timely delivered, as adjusted pursuant to any agreement reached by Purchaser and Seller, or as finally determined by the Settlement Accountant, as applicable (the “Allocation”), shall be conclusive and binding on all parties. The Allocation shall be adjusted, as necessary, to reflect any subsequent payments treated as adjustments to the Final Purchase Price. Any such adjustment shall be allocated, consistent with this Section 8.1(e)(i), to the asset, assets, share or shares (if any) to which such adjustment is attributable.

(ii)Purchaser and Seller shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) (A) prepare and file all Tax Returns (including the Section 338(h)(10) Forms), in a manner consistent with the Transaction Tax Treatment, the Section 338(h)(10) Election and the Allocation and (B) not take any position inconsistent therewith on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Proceeding or otherwise, in each case, except to the

extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of applicable state, local or non-U.S. law).

(f)Seller shall pay all Taxes attributable to the making of the Section 338(h)(10) Election (such Taxes, the “Section 338(h)(10) Election Taxes”).

8.2Tax Returns.

(a)Seller shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, when due (taking into account any valid extension of a required filing date) all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Acquired Companies related to Pre-Closing Tax Periods that are due (taking into account any valid extension of a required filing date) on or before the Closing Date solely in respect of those jurisdictions in which the applicable Acquired Company is currently filing Tax Returns (each such Tax Return, a “Seller-Filed Tax Return”). Each such Seller-Filed Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices of the Acquired Companies, except as otherwise required by a change in applicable Legal Requirements that is effective after the last day of the Taxable period immediately preceding the Taxable period for which the applicable Seller-Filed Tax Return will be filed. Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, any Taxes shown as due on any Seller-Filed Tax Return at the time such Seller-Filed Tax Return is filed by Seller pursuant to this Section 8.2(a).

(b)Purchaser (or its Affiliates) shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, when due (taking into account any extensions of a required filing date) all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Acquired Companies related to Pre-Closing Tax Periods (including Straddle Periods) that are due after the Closing Date solely in respect of those jurisdictions in which the applicable Acquired Company is currently filing Tax Returns (each such Tax Return, a “Purchaser-Filed Tax Return”). The Purchaser-Filed Tax Returns shall not include any Consolidated Return. Each Purchaser-Filed Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices of the Acquired Companies, except as otherwise required by a change in applicable Legal Requirements that is effective after the last day of the Taxable period immediately preceding the Taxable period for which the applicable Purchaser-Filed Tax Return will be filed.

(c)Any Purchaser-Filed Tax Return shall be provided in draft form to Seller (together with schedules, statements or other supporting documentation reasonably requested) at least twenty-five (25) Business Days (or, in the case of any Tax Return that is not an income Tax Return, as soon as reasonably practicable) prior to the due date (including any applicable valid extension) of such Purchaser-Filed Tax Return. Seller shall have the right to review and comment on such Purchaser-Filed Tax Return, and Purchaser shall consider in good faith any comments thereto that are provided by Seller to Purchaser in writing at least fifteen (15) Business Days (or, in the case of any Tax Return that is not an income Tax Return, as soon as reasonably practicable) prior to the due date (including any applicable valid extension) of such Purchaser-Filed Tax Return. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any disputed items with respect to any comments that were timely provided by Xxxxxx. If Purchaser and Seller fail to resolve any disputed items within five (5) Business Days following Seller’s delivery of

such comments (or within such longer period as the parties may mutually agree), Purchaser and Seller shall submit such disputed items to the Settlement Accountant for resolution, and Purchaser and Seller shall instruct the Settlement Accountant to resolve such disputed items as soon as practicable prior to the due date (including any applicable valid extension) of the Purchaser-Filed Tax Return. The fees and expenses of the Settlement Accountant shall be borne in the manner contemplated by Section 2.4(e), mutatis mutandis. No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of any Purchaser-Filed Tax Return pursuant to this Section 8.2(c), Seller shall pay, or caused to be paid, all Taxes shown as due on any Purchaser-Filed Tax Return at such time and as finally determined pursuant to this Section 8.2(c), except to the extent such Taxes (i) were taken into account in determining the Final Purchase Price or (ii) are allocable to a Post-Closing Straddle Period in accordance with Section 8.5, which Taxes shall be the sole responsibility of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies).

8.3Tax Sharing Agreements. To the extent relating to the Acquired Companies, Seller shall terminate, or cause to be terminated, on or before the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the Acquired Companies pursuant to all Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements (other than the Transition Services Agreement) if any, to which any of the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the other hand, are parties, and neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), on the one hand, nor any of the Acquired Companies, on the other hand, shall have any rights or obligations to each other after the Closing in respect of such agreements or arrangements.

8.4Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Transfer Taxes imposed as a result of the Transactions shall be borne and paid fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Seller. The party responsible under applicable Legal Requirements for filing the Tax Returns with respect to any such Transfer Taxes shall prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and promptly provide a copy of such Tax Return to the other party. The party not responsible under applicable Legal Requirements for the filing of such Tax Returns shall pay its allocable portion of such Transfer Taxes to the party filing such Tax Returns no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the due date of any such Tax Return. Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate in connection with the preparation and filing of any such Tax Returns.

8.5Straddle Periods. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes for a Pre-Closing Straddle Period shall be determined as follows: (a) in the case of any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts, or payroll, be determined based upon an interim closing of the books and hypothetical closing of the taxable year as of 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date, and (b) in the case of any other Tax, including Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Straddle Period shall be equal to the amount of Taxes for such Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period from the beginning of the Straddle Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Straddle Period. The portion of Tax attributable to a Post-Closing Straddle

No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall or shall cause one of its Affiliates to offer employment, in writing, to the Canadian Business Employee, effective as of 12:01 a.m. local time on the Closing Date. Such offer of employment made by Purchaser or one of its Affiliates to the Canadian Business Employee shall provide for terms and conditions consistent with this Article IX, employment in the same or a substantially similar position and work location (within a fifteen (15)-mile radius or such shorter distance required by applicable law in order to avoid the imposition of severance or other termination obligations), in each case, as those provided to such Canadian Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall (x) provide the Seller with a copy of the offer of employment to be made pursuant to this Section 9.1 at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the making of such offer for the Seller’s reasonable review and comment prior to the time that such offer is made and (y) promptly notify the Seller upon making such offer. Each Business Employee who is employed by any Acquired Company as of the Employment Commencement Date and, if the offer of employment with Purchaser or one of its Affiliates is accepted, the Canadian Business Employee shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee.”

9.2Continuation Period. Subject, and in addition, to requirements imposed by applicable Legal Requirements:

(a)For the period commencing on the Employment Commencement Date and ending on the one-year anniversary of the Employment Commencement Date (the “Continuation Period”), Purchaser shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Transferred Employee: (i) a base salary (or hourly base wage rate) that is at least equal to the base salary (or hourly base wage rate) provided to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date, (ii) a target annual cash bonus or commission opportunity that is at least equal to the target annual cash bonus or commission opportunity provided to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date, (iii) long-term incentive opportunities that are at least equal to the long-term incentive opportunities provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser, and (iv) employee health, welfare, retirement and fringe benefits and perquisites that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the employee health, welfare, retirement and fringe benefits and perquisites provided or made available to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date;

(b)In the event of termination of the employment of any Transferred Employee during the Continuation Period, Purchaser shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to such Transferred Employee severance pay and benefits no less favorable than the severance pay and benefits to which such Transferred Employee would have been entitled under any

applicable Seller Benefit Plan or Acquired Company Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date;

(c)For purposes of vesting and eligibility, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate (including any Acquired Company) to, give each Transferred Employee full credit for all purposes under each employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement of Seller or its applicable Affiliates (other than a defined benefit plan) maintained or made available for the benefit of Transferred Employees as of and after the Employment Commencement Date by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, for such Transferred Employee’s service prior to the Employment Commencement Date with Seller and its applicable Affiliates and their respective predecessors, to the same extent and for the same purpose as such service is recognized by Seller and its applicable Affiliates immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date; provided that such credit shall not be given to the extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service; and

(d)Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, or shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its applicable Affiliates (including any Acquired Company) to: (i) waive any limitation on health and welfare coverage of such Transferred Employees due to pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, active employment requirements and requirements to show evidence of good health under any applicable health and welfare plan of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Acquired Company) and (ii) credit each such Transferred Employee with all deductible payments, co-payments and co-insurance paid by such employee under any medical plan of Seller or any of its Affiliates prior to the Employment Commencement Date during the year in which the Employment Commencement Date occurs for the purpose of determining the extent to which any such employee has satisfied any applicable deductible and whether such employee has reached the out-of-pocket maximum under any benefit plan of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for such year.

9.3Annual Cash Bonuses. Purchaser shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) to, assume all unpaid cash incentive amounts, including cash bonuses and commissions, that are earned, credited or accrued as of the Employment Commencement Date in respect of each Transferred Employee (the “Assumed Incentive Amount”). Purchaser shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) to, pay to the Transferred Employees the Assumed Incentive Amount in accordance with the terms of the applicable arrangements in effect immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date at such time as such amounts would have been paid to the Transferred Employees by Seller or one of its Affiliates had the Closing not occurred; provided that the aggregate cash incentive amount paid to Transferred Employees for services rendered for the portion of the performance period elapsing prior to the Employment Commencement Date shall not be less than the Assumed Incentive Amount.

9.4Vacation and Paid Time Off. Unless otherwise required under applicable Legal Requirements, a Collective Bargaining Agreement, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall cause the Acquired Companies to credit each Transferred Employee with, and assume all liabilities for, the amount of accrued but unused vacation time, paid time off and other time-off benefits (“Accrued

PTO”) as such Transferred Employee had with any Acquired Company, Seller or any of its Affiliates as of immediately prior to the Employment Commencement Date. Neither Seller nor its Subsidiaries shall have any liabilities for such Accrued PTO as of the Closing.

9.5Communications. Prior to the Employment Commencement Date, except as otherwise approved in advance and in writing by Seller, Purchaser shall not make any written or oral communications pertaining to the transfer of Business Employees, any compensation or benefits matters or any redundancy and layoff plans, in each case, that may affect the Business Employees in connection with the Transactions.

From and after the date of this Agreement and following the Employment Commencement Date, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to process and support visa, green card or similar applications in respect of Transferred Employees as of the Employment Commencement Date. Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies), as applicable, shall employ any Business Employees who are foreign nationals working in the United States in non-immigrant visa status (the “U.S. Foreign National Employees”) under terms and conditions such that Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies), as applicable, qualify as a “successor employer” under applicable United States immigration laws effective as of the Employment Commencement Date. As of the Employment Commencement Date, Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Acquired Companies) agree to assume all immigration-related liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such U.S. Foreign National Employees.

9.7COBRA. Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that Seller shall be solely responsible for any obligation to provide continuation coverage under Section 4980B of the Code and Part 6 of Subtitle B of Part 1 of ERISA with respect to (i) any “M&A qualified beneficiaries,” as defined in Q&A 4 of Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, in connection with the Transactions and (ii) any Business Employee or Former Business Employee or their beneficiaries receiving or entitled receive to such continuation coverage as of the Closing Date.

If a Purchaser Indemnified Party’s claim may be properly characterized in multiple ways in accordance with this Article XII such that such claim may or may not be subject to different time limitations and other limitations depending on such characterization, then such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery and time to assert claims permitted in accordance with this Article XII; provided, however, that no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to double recovery for any indemnifiable Losses even though such Losses may have resulted from the breach or inaccuracy of more than one of the representations, warranties and covenants in this Agreement or be subject to indemnification pursuant to multiple clauses of this Section 12.2.

(b)Seller shall not be liable for any claim for indemnifiable Losses arising out of any claim under (i) Section 12.2(a)(i) relating to any Pre-Closing Covenant (other than the covenants in Section 7.4(b) and Section 8.2(a)) unless and until the aggregate amount of any and all such indemnifiable Losses with respect to Pre-Closing Covenants equals or exceeds the amount set forth in Schedule 12.2(b)(i) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover all such indemnifiable Losses with respect to Pre-Closing Covenants from the first dollar thereof or (ii) Section 12.2(a)(iv) unless and until the aggregate amount of any and all such indemnifiable Losses equals or exceeds the amount set forth in Schedule 12.2(b)(ii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Initial Deductible”), in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover fifty percent (50%) all indemnifiable Losses arising out of any claim under Section 12.2(a)(iv) in excess of the Initial Deductible until the aggregate amount of any and all indemnifiable Losses arising out of any claim under Section 12.2(a)(iv) equals or exceeds the amount set forth in

104

Schedule 12.2(b)(iii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Second Deductible”), in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover all indemnifiable Losses arising out of any claim under Section 12.2(a)(iv) in excess of the Second Deductible.

12.3Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this Article XII and without limitation to Section 2.1(b), effective as of and after the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties, to the extent arising out of, relating to or resulting from (a) any breach or violation of, or default in connection with, any covenant made by or to be performed by Purchaser in this Agreement and (b) Assumed Liabilities (other than Assumed Liabilities in respect of which Seller is obligated to indemnify Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 12.2).

12.4Procedures.

(a)In the event that any Proceeding for which an Indemnifying Party may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder is actually threatened, asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party and such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge thereof (a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly (but no later than ten (10) Business Days after such Indemnified Party receives actual notice of such Third-Party Claim) notify the Indemnifying Party in a writing that (i) describes such Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail (including the particular sections of this Agreement pursuant to which indemnification is being sought by the Indemnified Party) and (ii) sets forth the amount or the estimated amount sought thereunder to the extent then reasonably ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount recoverable in respect of, or otherwise limit the amount of recovery the Indemnified Party may seek in respect of, such Third-Party Claim) (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that a delay in providing a Claim Notice in accordance with this Section 12.4(a) shall not affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder, except (and only to the extent that) any such delay has a direct, material adverse and prejudicial effect on the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim (in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved only of any portion of the indemnification liability hereunder that resulted from such delay); provided, further, that for any Third-Party Claims relating to the exposure or alleged exposure of any person to asbestos or asbestos-containing substances or materials, the Indemnified Party shall not be required to submit a formal Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party and may instead promptly forward a copy of any complaint, demand letter or similar

105

documentation to the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) days (or such lesser number of days set forth in the Claim Notice as may be required in the event of a litigated Proceeding) after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party whether the Indemnifying Party desires to assume the control, investigation and defense of such Third-Party Claim. For purposes of the matter set forth on Schedule 12.2(a)(iv) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Specified Matter”), the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall be deemed to have assumed the control, investigation and defense of the Specified Matter; provided that Seller shall (A) keep Purchaser reasonably informed of all substantive developments and events relating to the Specified Matter, (B) reasonably promptly forward copies to Purchaser of any litigation filings or substantive correspondence with other parties with respect to the Specified Matter, (C) provide Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any proposed substantive litigation filings in connection with the Specified Matter and (D) notify Purchaser in advance of any settlement discussions in connection with the Specified Matter, and confer with Purchaser regarding the strategy and objectives for any such discussions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for so long as Seller has assumed the control, investigation and defense of the Specified Matter, Seller shall be responsible for all legal defense costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) relating to the Specified Matter.

(c)Notwithstanding Section 12.4(b), other than with respect to the Specified Matter, if a Third-Party Claim (i) is a Proceeding or threatened Proceeding by a Governmental Authority, (ii) seeks injunctive or other non-monetary relief, that, if granted, would adversely affect the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iii) seeks a finding or admission of liability or a violation of any criminal or civil regulatory Legal Requirement by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iv) seeks a finding or admission that would have an adverse effect on other claims actually made or threatened in writing against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or (v) would materially and adversely affect the ongoing business (including any dispute with any officers, managers, key employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and others having commercial relationships with the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates) of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates (any such Third-Party Claim, an “Indemnified Party Defense Matter”) then, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i)-(v), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume the control, investigation and defense such Third-Party Claim at the sole expense of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such investigation and defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing (at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall not affect a Settlement or consent to the entry of any Order of an Indemnified Party Defense Matter, unless such Settlement or consent complies with Section 12.4(b) mutatis mutandis.

(d)The Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party a reasonable period to review and comment upon drafts of any documentation relating to any Settlement that

107

the Indemnifying Party proposed to enter into or Order that the Indemnifying Party proposed to consent to, and the Indemnifying Party shall consider any such comments in good faith.

(e)If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third-Party Claim, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice of its desire to so defend or otherwise, (ii) is not entitled to defend the Third-Party Claim as provided in Section 12.4(c), or (iii) after assuming the defense of a Third-Party Claim, fails to defend in good faith such Third-Party Claim then, in each case, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to control the investigation, defense and resolution of such Third-Party Claim, and shall reasonably consult with the Indemnifying Party regarding the strategy for investigation, defense and resolution of such Third-Party Claim, it being understood that the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification for a Third-Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(f)The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in order to allow for the proper and adequate investigation, defense and resolution of a Third-Party Claim, including by providing reasonable access during normal business hours to each other’s relevant business records and other documents and employees. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall keep each other reasonably informed with respect to the status of such Third-Party Claim and shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, deliver to each other copies of all material written notices and documents (including court papers) received by the other that relate to the Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party, to the extent it is controlling the investigation and defense of such Third-Party Claim, shall in good faith allow the Indemnified Party to propose comments to the materials submitted in such defense (and shall consider such comments in good faith).

(g)In the event that any Indemnified Party has a claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Article XII for Losses not involving a Third-Party Claim that such Indemnified Party believes gives rise to a claim for indemnification or reimbursement in accordance with the terms of this Article XII, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such Losses in a writing that meets the requirements set forth in Section 12.4(a); provided, however, that a delay in providing such notification in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 12.4(a) shall not affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder, except (and only to the extent that) any such delay has a direct, material adverse and prejudicial effect on the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim (in which case, the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved only of any portion of the indemnification obligation hereunder that resulted from such delay).

(h)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.4 to the contrary, neither Purchaser nor Seller shall be required to provide access to or disclose any information (i) that is subject to attorney-client privilege, work product protection or trade secret protection or other similar privilege or protection or (ii) if such access or disclosure would (A) or would reasonably be expected to cause material harm to such party or (B) violate applicable Legal Requirements, contravene fiduciary duty or conflict with any Contract by which Purchaser, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates is bound; provided that the party not providing

108

access or disclosing information shall advise the other party that the party not providing access or disclosing information is withholding such information and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow for such access or disclosure (or as much of it as possible) to the other party in a manner that does not violate any of the foregoing clause (i) or clause (ii).

12.5Exclusive Remedy. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that, except with respect to Fraud and as provided for in the R&W Insurance Policy, and without limiting any right or obligation under any other documents entered into in connection with the Transactions, following the Closing, Section 8.1, Section 8.3, Section 8.4, and this Article XII and specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Seller Indemnified Parties and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, respectively, for any Losses (including any Losses from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) that each party hereto may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or in connection with this Agreement, including any failure by any party to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission they may otherwise have or to which they may become entitled.

12.6Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(a)Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article XII, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party may have against any third party insurers (other than pursuant to the R&W Insurance Policy) with respect to indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assign any such rights to the Indemnifying Party to the extent permitted by the applicable insurance policy.

(b)Each Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its controlled Affiliates to take, commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto.

12.7Limitation on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including Article VIII and this Article XII), after the Closing, neither party shall be liable to the other party or its Affiliates or any other Person, whether in contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or otherwise, at law or in equity, and “Losses” shall not include any amounts for any special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (except, in the case of special, incidental or consequential damages only, to the extent such damages are a reasonably foreseeable consequence of the matter giving rise to the applicable Loss); provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Purchaser Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party from being indemnified pursuant to this Article XII and Article VIII for all components of awards against them in any Third-Party Claim, including components of such Third-Party Claim relating to special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no indemnity may be sought hereunder in respect of any Losses to the extent such liability (a) is specifically reserved for or otherwise specifically reflected as a

109

liability of the Acquired Companies in the calculations of Final Closing Indebtedness, Final Closing Net Working Capital or Final Closing Transaction Expenses as of the Closing, or (b) was otherwise actually taken into account as a liability of the Acquired Companies in determining the Final Purchase Price.

12.8Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments and Post-Closing Adjustments. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Legal Requirement), Seller, Purchaser and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments pursuant to Section 2.4, Article VIII or this Article XII as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price, for Tax purposes.

12.9Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts. Any Losses subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article XII shall be calculated (a) net of insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party for such liability that actually reduce the amount of the Loss (“Insurance Proceeds”) and (b) net of any indemnity or contribution proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party from any third party for such liability that actually reduce the amount of the Loss (“Third Party Proceeds”); provided that for purposes of this Section 12.9, Insurance Proceeds and Third Party Proceeds shall be calculated net of any deductible, retention amount or increased insurance premiums and net of reasonable and documented costs of recovery incurred by the Indemnifying Party in obtaining such recovery. Accordingly, the amount which any Indemnifying Party is required to pay pursuant to this Article XII to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article XII shall be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of the related Loss. If an Indemnified Party receives a payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Loss (an “Indemnity Payment”) and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds, then the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made. The Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds and any Third Party Proceeds to which the Indemnified Party is entitled in connection with any Loss for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article XII; provided, however, that in no event shall the Indemnified Party be required to (A) file one or more lawsuits or commence any other Proceeding or (B) seek to first recover under the R&W Insurance Policy, any insurance policy or any other third party; provided, further, that the Indemnified Party’s inability to collect or recover any such Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds shall not limit the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall have no obligation to seek to first collect or first recover any Insurance Proceeds or Third Party Proceeds prior to obtaining indemnification from the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article XII.

13.7Jurisdiction; Venue; Service of Process.

(a)Each of the parties hereto, by its execution hereof, hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Chancery Court (or, if the Delaware Chancery Court declines to accept jurisdiction, any United States District Court located in the State of Delaware, or if the United States District Courts located in the State of Delaware decline to accept jurisdiction, any state court of the State of Delaware) for the purpose of any Proceeding among the parties hereto relating to or arising in whole or in part under or in connection with the Transaction Documents or the Transactions, (ii) waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable Legal Requirements, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such Proceeding brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on grounds of forum non conveniens, should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the above-named courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other Proceeding in any other court other than one of the above-named courts or that the Transaction Documents or the subject matter hereof or thereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (iii) agrees not to commence any such Proceeding other than before one of the above-named courts.

EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.8.

114

13.9Specific Performance.

(a)Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that (i) the other party will be irreparably damaged if this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms and (ii) any breach of this Agreement would not be adequately compensated by monetary damages, even if available. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which a party may be entitled, at law or in equity, that party shall be entitled to equitable relief (including an injunction or injunctions) to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to compel specific performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including to require the other party to consummate the Closing as contemplated hereby), without (A) the need for proof of actual damages and (B) the requirement of posting any bond or other security or indemnity. Furthermore, each party hereto agrees not to raise (1) any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement, or to specifically enforce the terms of this Agreement (including to require the other party to consummate the Closing as contemplated hereby) (except that the party opposing specific performance may contest the existence of any breach or threatened breach), or (2) that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach.

(b)Each party hereto further agrees that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 13.9 a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to such party under this Agreement or in the event that the remedies provided for in this Section 13.9 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 13.9 shall require any party to institute any Proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any action for) specific performance under this Section 13.9 prior to or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article XI, nor shall the commencement of any action pursuant to this Section 13.9 or anything set forth in this Section 13.9 restrict or limit any such party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Article XI or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter. If any party hereto brings any Proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and conditions hereof by the other party, the party bringing such action may petition a court to extend the Outside Date (notwithstanding the termination provisions of Section 11.1(d)) (and the other party hereto shall not assert that the extension of the Outside Date is an inappropriate remedy if the other party is in material breach of any covenant contained in this Agreement in any manner that shall have been a principal cause of the failure of the Closing to occur by the Outside Date), so long as the party bringing such action is actively seeking a court order for an injunction or injunctions or to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

13.10Severability. Each of the provisions of this Agreement is severable, such that if any such provision is held to be or becomes invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Legal Requirements of any jurisdiction, it shall have no effect in that respect in such jurisdiction and the parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to replace it in that respect with a valid and enforceable substitute provision the effect of which is as close to its intended effect as possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto intend that the remedies and limitations thereon contained in Article XI and Article XII be construed as an integral provision of this Agreement

115

and that such remedies and limitations shall not be severable in any manner that increases a party’s liability or obligations hereunder or under the Debt Financing Commitment.

13.11Certain Releases.

otherwise affect the rights or obligations of any party hereto or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to enforcing the terms of any Transaction Document.

(c)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that no recourse under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be had against any Seller Releasee (other than Seller) or any Purchaser Releasee (other than Purchaser), as applicable, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Legal Requirement, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any Seller Releasee (other than Seller) for any obligation of Seller under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement or by any Purchaser Releasee (other than Purchaser) for any obligation of Purchaser under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement, for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller and its Affiliates will not have any rights or claims, regardless of the legal theory under which such right or claim may be asserted, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory, and will not seek any such rights or claims against any of the Financing Sources in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Commitment Documents or the Debt Financing, and no Financing Source shall have any liability to Seller or any of its Affiliates for any obligations or liabilities of the parties or for any claim (regardless of the legal theory under which such claim may be asserted, whether sounding in contract or tort, or whether at law or in equity, or otherwise under any legal or equitable theory), based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby, the Debt Commitment Documents or the Debt Financing.

(e)The parties hereto unconditionally and irrevocably acknowledge and agree that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 13.11 are an integral part of this Agreement and the Transactions and (ii) without the agreements set forth in this Section 13.11, the other party would not enter into this Agreement or otherwise agree to consummate the Transactions.

13.12The Seller Disclosure Schedule, Exhibits and Schedules. The Seller Disclosure Schedule, schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if the same had been set forth verbatim herein. The representations and warranties of Seller set forth in this Agreement are made and given subject to the disclosures contained in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Inclusion of information in the Seller Disclosure Schedule will not be construed as an admission that such information is material to the business, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Seller, the IP Seller IP, the Business or any Acquired Company. Disclosure of any matter in any

117

Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be disclosure of such matter with respect to any other schedule of the Seller Disclosure Schedule to which such matter is specifically cross referenced or to which such matter relates to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that such disclosure applies to the relevant representation or warranty of such other Section. The headings contained in the Seller Disclosure Schedule are inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting or construing any of the provisions contained in this Agreement.

13.13Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be sufficient if in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made: (a) when personally delivered, (b) the day of sending, if sent by email transmission prior to 9:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day or the next succeeding Business Day if sent after 9:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day or on any day other than a Business Day or (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service, in each case to the addresses, email addresses and attention parties indicated below (or such other address, email address or attention party as the recipient party has specified by prior notice given to the sending party in accordance with this Section 13.13):

13.14No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for Section 7.4 (with respect to the D&O Indemnitees and their respective successors, heirs and legal representatives), Section 13.11 (with respect to the Seller Releasees and Purchaser Releasees), Section 13.15 (with respect to Xxxxxxx) and this Section 13.14, the last sentence of Section 13.4, Section 13.7(c) and Section 13.11(c) (with respect to the Financing Sources), a Person who is not a party to this Agreement shall have no right to enforce any of its terms and this Agreement is not intended to give any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their permitted assigns any rights hereunder.

13.15Provision Regarding Legal Representation. It is acknowledged by each party hereto that Xxxxxx has retained Xxxxxxx to act as its counsel in connection with the Transactions and that Xxxxxxx has not acted as counsel for any other party in connection with such Transactions. The parties hereto agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Purchaser, any Acquired Company or their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller or its Affiliates, on the other hand, Skadden may represent Seller and its Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of Seller and its Affiliates may be directly adverse to Purchaser, the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates, and even though Skadden may have represented any of the Acquired Companies or any of their Affiliates in a matter substantially related to such dispute. Purchaser further agrees that, all communications among Seller, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and their counsel, including Xxxxxxx, on the other hand, that relate in any way to the Transactions shall be deemed attorney-client privileged communications (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”) and the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to Seller and may be controlled by Xxxxxx and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser, any Acquired Company or any of their Affiliates. The Privileged Communications are (and upon the Closing shall remain) the property of Seller, and from and after the Closing, none of Purchaser, the Acquired Companies, their Affiliates or any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through Purchaser, the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates will seek to access, use or obtain such communications, whether by seeking a waiver of the attorney-client privilege or through other means. As to any such Privileged Communications made prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser, together with its Affiliates (including the Acquired Companies), successors and assigns, further agree that no such party may access, use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any Proceeding against or involving any of the parties hereto after the Closing. The Privileged Communications may be used by Seller in connection with any dispute that relates in any way to the Transactions. If Seller uses any Privileged Communications in connection with any dispute such documents and

119

information shall no longer be deemed to be protected by any privilege; provided that Purchaser and Seller reserve their rights to seek or oppose discovery relating to any other Privileged Communications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser, any Acquired Company or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and any other Person or Persons (other than a party to this Agreement or any of its respective Affiliates), on the other hand, after the Closing, such Acquired Company and its Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of the Privileged Communications to such Person or Persons; provided, however, that none of the Acquired Companies nor their Affiliates may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller.

13.16No Other Duties. The only duties and obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement are as specifically set forth in this Agreement, and no other duties or obligations shall be implied in fact, Legal Requirement or equity, or under any principle of fiduciary obligation.

13.17Reliance on Counsel and Other Advisors. Each party hereto has consulted such legal, financial, technical or other experts as it deems necessary or desirable before entering into this Agreement.

13.18Public Announcements. None of Seller or its Affiliates, Purchaser or its Affiliates or any representative of any such party shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or public announcement in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of the other party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (a) as may be required by Legal Requirement or stock exchange rules or as Seller or Purchaser deems necessary or advisable to comply with their respective SEC filing requirements, in which case the party seeking to publish such press release or public announcement shall use reasonable efforts to provide the other party a reasonable opportunity to comment on such press release or public announcement in advance of such publication; provided that the foregoing will not restrict or prohibit Purchaser, Seller or any of the Acquired Companies from making any announcement in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement to its respective employees, customers, suppliers, vendors and other business relations (in each case, in their capacity as such) to the extent Seller or any Acquired Company reasonably determines in good faith that such announcement is necessary or advisable (but only to the extent the context of which is consistent with that of any prior announcement made in compliance with this Section 13.18), or (b) to the extent the contents of such press release or public announcement or filing have previously been released publicly by a party or are consistent in all material respects with materials or disclosures that have previously been released publicly, in each case, without violation of this Section 13.18. The parties hereto agree that the initial press release to be issued with respect to the execution of this Agreement shall be in the form agreed to by Seller and Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 13.18 shall not apply to the disclosure of the express terms of this Agreement in any public filing required by Legal Requirement, stock exchange rules or SEC filing requirements.

13.19Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, including via DocuSign or other electronic signature or electronic scan copies thereof delivered

120

by electronic mail, each of which shall be deemed an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.
