2.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Seller hereby sells the Shares to the Purchaser, who hereby purchases the Shares under the irrevocable and unconditional obligation to pay the Purchase Price to the Seller as provided in this Agreement on a cash and debt free basis, except that as of the Effective Date and the Closing, the Company shall maintain no less than two (2) million Euros in cash, plus any increase in cash from the Effective Date through the Closing.

2.2 The Seller shall transfer the Shares to the Purchaser, free and clear from all Encumbrances or restriction on the ability of the Seller to sell and including all rights and benefits attached to the Shares (including rights to dividends, distributions or shares issued), in accordance with Article 5.

2.3 The Transaction shall be effective as of the Effective Date. All benefits and risks with regard to the Company and the Shares shall be transferred to the Purchaser as of the Effective Date.

Execution copy

3.2.2 The Purchaser pay to the Seller a fixed amount of two (2) million Euros in respect of all cash held by the Company as of the Closing.

As soon as reasonably possible, but ultimately within ten (10) Working Days after the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller any cash held by the Group Companies in excess of two (2) million Euros, such cash calculated in Euros as at the Effective Date and, where applicable, using the spot rate as at the end of such Effective Date for any currency other than Euros.

3.3 The Earnout shall be paid by the Purchaser to the Seller after the Closing in accordance with Appendix 3.3. Furthermore, in relation to the Earnout, the provisions of Appendix 3.3 shall apply as obligations for the Purchaser.

3.4 If any payment is made by the Seller to the Purchaser in respect of any claim for any breach of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a payment pursuant to Article 9 of this Agreement for a breach of a Seller’s Warranty), then the amount of such payment shall be regarded as an adjustment of the Purchase Price.

4. Working Capital

4.1 Target Working Capital

4.1.1 The “Target Working Capital” shall be an amount equal to the average working capital of the Company based on the balance sheets of the Group Companies for each of the past twelve (12) months ended 31 May 2012 as set forth in Appendix 4.1.1.

4.2 Post-Closing Adjustment

4.2.1 Delivery of Calculation. Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to the Seller:

4.2.1.1 a statement setting forth its calculation of Closing Working Capital, which statement shall contain a balance sheet of the Group Companies as at the Effective Date (without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein);

7

Execution copy

4.2.1.2 a calculation of Closing Working Capital (the “Closing Working Capital Statement”); and

4.2.1.3 a certificate of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company that the Closing Working Capital Statement was prepared in accordance with GAAP applied using the same accounting methods, practices, principles, policies and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and valuation and estimation methodologies that were used in the preparation of the Accounts as if such Closing Working Capital Statement was being prepared and audited as of a fiscal year end.

4.2.2 Adjustment. The Post-Closing Adjustment shall be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital minus the Target Working Capital (the “Post-Closing Adjustment”). If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive number (i.e. > 0, “zero”) in excess of five (5%) per cent of the Target Working Capital (the “Adjustment Threshold”), the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative number (i.e. < 0, “zero”) in excess of the Adjustment Threshold, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment.

4.2.3 Examination. After receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement, the Seller shall have thirty (30) days (the “Review Period”) to review the Closing Working Capital Statement. During the Review Period, the Seller and the Seller’s accountants shall have full access to the books and records of the Group Companies, the personnel of, and work papers prepared by, the Purchaser and/or the Purchaser’s accountants to the extent that they relate to the Closing Working Capital Statement and to such historical financial information (to the extent in the Purchaser’s possession) relating to the Closing Working Capital Statement as the Seller may reasonably request for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Working Capital Statement and to prepare a Statement of Objections (as defined below), provided, that such access shall be in a manner that does not interfere with the normal business operations of the Purchaser or the Group Companies.

4.2.4 Objection. On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, the Seller may object to the Closing Working Capital Statement by delivering to the Purchaser a written statement setting forth the Seller’s objections in reasonable detail, indicating each disputed

8

Execution copy

item or amount and the basis for the Seller’s disagreement therewith (the “Statement of Objections”). If the Seller fails to deliver the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, reflected in the Closing Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Seller. If the Seller delivers the Statement of Objections before the expiration of the Review Period, the Purchaser and the Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Statement of Objections (the “Resolution Period”), and, if the same are so resolved within the Resolution Period, the Post-Closing Adjustment and the Closing Working Capital Statement with such changes as may have been previously agreed in writing by the Purchaser and the Seller, shall be final and binding.

4.2.5 Resolution of Disputes. If the Seller and the Purchaser fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any amounts remaining in dispute (“Disputed Amounts” and any amounts not so disputed, the “Undisputed Amounts”) shall be submitted for resolution to the office of KPMG LLP or Deloitte & Touche LLP or, if neither KPMG LLP nor Deloitte & Touche LLP is able to serve, the Purchaser and the Seller shall appoint by mutual agreement the office of an impartial nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants other than the Seller’s accountants or the Purchaser’s accountants (the “Independent Accountants”) who, acting as experts and not arbitrators, shall resolve the Disputed Amounts only and make any adjustments to the Post-Closing Adjustment, as the case may be, and the Closing Working Capital Statement. The parties hereto agree that all adjustments shall be made without regard to materiality. The Independent Accountants shall only decide the specific items under dispute by the parties and their decision for each Disputed Amount must be within the range of values assigned to each such item in the Closing Working Capital Statement and the Statement of Objections, respectively.

4.2.6 Fees of the Independent Accountants. The Seller shall pay a portion of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants (the “Fees”) equal to 100% multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the Disputed Amounts submitted to the Independent Accountants that are resolved in favor of the Purchaser (that being the difference between the Independent

9

Execution copy

Accountants’ determination and the Seller’s determination) and the denominator of which is the total amount of the Disputed Amounts submitted to the Independent Accountants (that being the sum total by which the Purchaser’s determination and the Seller’s determination differ from the determination of the Independent Accountants). The Purchaser shall pay that portion of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants that the Seller is not required to pay hereunder. The Independent Accountants shall on the basis of this Article 4.2.6 determine the division of the Fees between the Purchaser and the Seller. The determination of the Independent Accountants shall be binding for the Parties.

4.2.7 Determination by Independent Accountants. The Independent Accountants shall make a determination as soon as practicable within thirty (30) days (or such other time as the parties hereto shall agree in writing) after the date of their engagement, and their resolution of the Disputed Amounts and their adjustments to the Closing Working Capital Statement and/or the Post-Closing Adjustment shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

4.2.8 Payments of Post-Closing Adjustment. Except as otherwise provided herein, any payment of the Post-Closing Adjustment, together with interest calculated as set forth below, shall (A) be due (x) within five (5) Working Days of acceptance of the applicable Closing Working Capital Statement or (y) if there are Disputed Amounts, then within ten (10) Working Days of the resolution described in clause (v) above; and (B) be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as is directed by the Purchaser or the Seller, as the case may be. The amount of any Post-Closing Adjustment shall bear interest from and including the Closing Date to the date of payment at the Interest Rate. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

4.3 Adjustments for Tax Purposes. Any payments made pursuant to Article 4.2 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

5. Closing

5.1 Closing shall take place at 12.00 hours CET on 7 August 2012, at the offices of Meyerlustenberger Lachenal Avocats, Geneva, Switzerland, or at any other date, time, or location as may be agreed in writing by the Parties.

7.12 After Closing, the Purchaser shall be liable to the Seller for any Losses incurred by the Seller in connection with or as a result of breaches of any Purchaser’s Warranties, and the Guarantor shall be liable to the Seller for any Losses incurred by the Seller in connection with or as a result of breaches of any Guarantor’s Warranties, subject, in each case and for the avoidance of doubt, to the limitations of Article 9.

8. Tax matters and other Post-Closing Covenants

8.1 Tax Matters.

8.1.1 Sales and Transfer Taxes. All sales and transfer Taxes (including stock transfer Taxes, if any) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne by the relevant Party that is obligated to pay such Taxes under applicable Law. The Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller in the timely preparation and filing of all Tax Returns as may be required to comply with the laws governing such sales and transfer Taxes.

8.1.2 Tax Indemnification. The Seller shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser Indemnitees harmless from and against, any and all Taxes (or asserted deficiency, claim, demand,

13

Execution copy

action, suit, proceeding, judgment or assessment, including the defense or settlement thereof, relating to such Taxes) imposed or assessed against any of the Group Companies or the assets of any of them:

8.1.2.1 with respect to all Tax periods, or portions thereof, ending on or prior to the Closing Date, except as reserved for in the Accounts;

8.1.2.2 with respect to any and all Taxes of any of the Group Companies allocated to the Seller pursuant to Article 8.1.3;

8.1.2.3 by reason of being a successor-in-interest or transferee of another Person; and

8.1.2.4 with respect to any and all Taxes of any member of a consolidated, combined or unitary group of which any Group Company is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date for which such Group Company is liable pursuant to Treas. Reg. §1.1502-6(a) or any analogous or similar state, local or foreign Law or regulation.

The Seller also shall pay and indemnify and hold the Purchaser Indemnitees harmless from and against any Losses incurred in connection with a Tax Proceeding relating to the determination of any Purchaser Indemnitee’s liability for Taxes for which the Seller has indemnified the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to this Article 8.1 and the enforcement of this Article 8.1. Without limiting to any extent the application of the preceding provisions of this Article 8.1.2, it is specifically understood and agreed that the Seller’s indemnification obligation under this Article 8.1.2 shall include any and all Taxes imposed or assessed against any of the Group Companies or the assets of any of them by reason of such Group Company’s non-compliance with any transfer pricing rules to which it has been subject or any non-compliance by such Group Company with the applicable rules relating to its reporting of value to customs authorities in any jurisdiction.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller’s indemnification obligations under this Article 8.1 shall not be diminished or qualified in any respect by any disclosure set forth in the Disclosure Letter in respect of Seller’s Warranties.

14

Execution copy

8.1.3 Straddle Periods. For Tax purposes, the current Tax year of each of the Group Companies shall, unless prohibited by applicable Law, be deemed to end as of the close of the Closing Date. In any case where applicable Law does not permit a Group Company to close its current Tax year as of the close of the Closing Date or in any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a Tax period which includes the Closing Date (but does not begin or end on the Closing Date), then Taxes, if any, attributable to the Tax period of a Group Company beginning before and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be allocated to and be payable by (i) the Seller for the portion of such Tax period up to and including the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and (ii) the Purchaser for the portion of such Tax period after the Closing Date. Any allocation of income or deductions of a Group Company required to determine any Taxes attributable to any portion of a Tax period beginning before and ending after the Closing Date shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of such Group Company as of the close of the Closing Date, provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the portion of the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of the Tax period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such portion of the Tax period.

8.1.4 Tax Returns.

8.1.4.1 The Purchaser shall, at the Seller’s expense but subject to an expense cap based on the average of the Company’s Tax return preparation and filing expenses over the past three (3) years, being EUR 25,000, prepare (or cause to be prepared) and timely file (or cause to be timely filed), taking into account any applicable filing extensions, all Tax Returns of each of the Group Companies required to be filed for all Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (any such Tax Return or report or amended Tax Return or report, a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”) which have yet to be filed as of the Closing Date. All Pre-Closing Tax Returns for each Group Company shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice for such Group Company, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. The Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a

15

Execution copy

complete copy of each such Pre-Closing Tax Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return, taking into account any applicable filing extensions. To the extent that any position taken on a Pre-Closing Tax Return for a Group Company or any item thereon is inconsistent with the manner in which such Group Company’s prior Tax Returns were prepared (or such item was not previously reported or such position was not previously taken) and such position or treatment of an item is not required by applicable Law, the Seller shall have the right to object to the filing of such Pre-Closing Tax Return by delivery to the Purchaser of a detailed written notice setting forth the basis of its objection within fifteen (15) days following the receipt thereof. The failure of the Seller to object to the filing of any such Pre-Closing Tax Return within such fifteen-day period shall constitute approval thereof. The Seller and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding such Pre-Closing Tax Return prior to the due date for filing thereof. Any disagreements regarding such Pre-Closing Tax Return which are not resolved prior to the required filing thereof shall be promptly resolved pursuant to Article 8.1.10. Not later than ten (10) days before the due date for payment of any previously-unpaid Taxes shown on any Group Company’s Pre-Closing Tax Return, the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to that portion of the previously-unpaid Taxes shown on such Pre-Closing Tax Return for which the Seller has agreed to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to Article 8.1.2; provided, however, that if the Seller shall have given written notice of an objection to the filing of such Pre-Closing Tax Return pursuant to this Article 8.1.4.1 and such objection ultimately is resolved in the Seller’s favor in accordance with Article 8.1.10, the Purchaser shall, within a reasonable period of time, take such steps as are reasonably necessary to secure a refund of the Taxes attributable to such objection and remit such Tax refund to the Seller promptly upon receipt thereof.

16

Execution copy

8.1.4.2 The Purchaser also shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) and timely file (or cause to be timely filed), taking into account any applicable filing extensions, all Tax Returns of each of the Group Companies required to be filed for any Straddle Period (each, a “Straddle Return”). All Straddle Returns for each Group Company shall be prepared in a manner consistent with prior practice for such Group Company, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. The Purchaser shall provide the Seller with a complete copy of each such Straddle Return at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Straddle Return, taking into account any applicable filing extensions. The Seller shall have the right to object to the filing of a Group Company’s Straddle Return by delivery to the Purchaser of a detailed written notice setting forth the basis of its objection within fifteen (15) days following the receipt thereof. The failure of the Seller to object to the filing of any such Straddle Return within such fifteen-day period shall constitute approval thereof. The Seller and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding such Straddle Return prior to the due date for filing thereof. Any disagreements regarding such Straddle Return which are not resolved prior to the required filing thereof shall be promptly resolved pursuant to Article 8.1.10.

8.1.5.1 The Seller shall control any Tax Proceeding in respect of any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (any such Tax Proceeding, a “Seller Tax Proceeding”) and, in connection therewith, shall be authorized to take any action in its sole discretion, unless such action would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse Tax effect or a liability or increase in liability hereunder to any Purchaser Indemnitees for any Tax period, in which case such action may not be taken without the Purchaser’s consent. The Seller shall keep the Purchaser fully and contemporaneously apprised of all material aspects of any Seller Tax Proceeding and shall promptly furnish or cause to be promptly furnished to the Purchaser any and all material documents, reports, correspondence and other written materials pertaining to any Seller Tax Proceeding.

8.1.5.2 The Purchaser shall control and defend or shall cause each of the Group Companies to control and defend any Tax Proceeding in respect of any Group Company Tax Return for a Tax period ending after the Closing Date, including, without limitation, a Straddle Return (each such Tax Proceeding, a “Purchaser Tax Proceeding”); provided, however that, without the Seller’s prior written consent and unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Purchaser may not take (or cause or permit to be taken by a Group Company), any action or decline (or cause or permit a Group Company to decline) to take any action with respect to any Purchaser Tax Proceeding that would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse Tax effect to, or liability or increase in liability hereunder for, the Seller.

8.1.6 Mutual Cooperation. From and after the Closing, the Parties shall provide each other (including, in the case of the Purchaser, causing the Group Companies to provide to the Seller) such assistance as may reasonably be requested by any of them in connection with (i) the preparation of any Tax Return, election, consent or certificate required to be prepared by any Party hereto or any of its Affiliates, or (ii) any Tax Proceeding. Such assistance shall include, as reasonably necessary, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and providing copies of relevant previously-filed Tax Returns, supporting work schedules and other records, documents, consents, certificates and other information relevant to the preparation of a required Tax Return or the conduct of a Tax Proceeding, subject to the provisions of Articles 8.1.4 and 8.1.5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Purchaser shall not dispose of any records or documents relevant to the Tax liability of any of the Group Companies or any Pre-Closing Tax Returns or Straddle Returns prior to the later of six (6) months after the expiration of the limitations period applicable to the assessment by the relevant Tax Authority of the Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns, or the final resolution of any Tax Proceeding initiated prior to the expiration of the applicable limitations period.

8.1.7 Procedure for Indemnification. Any claim for indemnification under Article 8.1.2 may be made at any time prior to six (6) months after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the assessment by the relevant Tax Authority of the Taxes due with respect to the relevant Tax period (taking into account any applicable periods of extension). Once a claim for indemnification under Article 8.1.2 is either acknowledged by the Seller or finally resolved by the Independent Accountants and determined to be payable by the Seller pursuant to Article 8.1.10, the Purchaser/Guarantor shall exercise its right of set-off under Note A as provided therein to the extent any amount remains payable under Note A, or, if no amount remains payable under Note A, the Seller shall satisfy such claim within ten (10) Working Days after such acknowledgment or final resolution by wire transfer to the Purchaser of immediately available funds. If the Seller does not make full payment of such claim within such ten (10) Working Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate from and including the date of the Seller’s acknowledgment of the claim or the final resolution to and including the date of such payment. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

8.1.8 Refunds and Carry backs.

8.1.8.1 Any Tax refund or credit received by a Group Company that is attributable to any Tax period ended on or before the Closing Date or the portion of a Straddle Period up to and including the Closing Date shall be for the account of the Seller; provided that the Seller shall return to the Purchaser the amount, if any, by which the amount of such Tax refund or credit is thereafter reduced pursuant to a final determination by the relevant Tax Authority. Any such payment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price. Any payments made under this Article 8.1.8.1 shall be net of any Taxes payable with respect to such refund or credit (taking into account any actual reduction in Tax liability realized upon the payment pursuant to this Article 8.1.8.1). The Seller and the Purchaser shall, and the Purchaser shall cause each of the Group Companies to, reasonably cooperate in the obtaining of any refund or credit.

8.1.8.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 8.1.8.1, any Tax refunds or credits (including any interest thereon) realized by a Group Company as a result of the carry back of any Tax loss, deduction or credit of such Group Company from any full Tax period ended after the Closing Date or from the portion of any Straddle Period after the Closing Date, in either case to a Tax period ended on or before the Closing Date or the portion of a Straddle Period up to and including the Closing Date shall not be for the account of the Seller and shall be retained by such Group Company.

8.1.9 Transfer Pricing Studies. The Company has engaged an independent expert firm to conduct studies with respect to the Group Companies’ compliance, from January 1, 2007 through and including the Closing Date (the “Transfer Pricing Study Period”), with transfer pricing rules (including transfer pricing documentation requirements) applicable in each jurisdiction of the Operations to any and all transactions undertaken by each of the Group Companies with one or more other Group Companies and the reporting of value to customs authorities in each such

20

Execution copy

jurisdiction (the “Seller’s Transfer Pricing Studies”). As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, the Purchaser also shall engage a separate independent expert firm to analyze the Group Companies’ compliance, during the Transfer Pricing Study Period, with transfer pricing rules applicable in each jurisdiction of the Operations and the Group Companies’ respective reporting of value to customs authorities in each such jurisdiction (the “Purchaser’s Transfer Pricing Studies”). The Seller’s Transfer Pricing Studies and the Purchaser’s Transfer Pricing Studies shall be completed within eighteen (18) months after the Closing.

8.1.10 Dispute Resolution. Any dispute as to any matter covered in this Article 8.1 shall be resolved by the Independent Accountants. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne by the Seller and the Purchaser ratably on a basis consistent with the method described in Article 4.2.6 hereof.

8.1.11 Survival of Obligations. All covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Article 8.1 shall survive until the date which is six (6) months after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to the relevant Tax Authority’s assessment and collection of the Taxes which are the subject of the claim of breach of any of such covenants and agreements.

8.2 Cooperation of Independent Accountants. The Seller shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause its independent accountants to reasonably cooperate, with the Purchaser and its independent accountants, at the Purchaser’s request, in the preparation of any financial statements required for the Purchaser to comply with its financial reporting obligations to the extent required under U.S. securities laws, including, without limitation, Regulation S-X.

8.4 Licensing agreement Gilfin S.p.A.

8.4.1 The Parties acknowledge that the Seller has retained a royalty prepayment in the sum of EUR 1,991,378 (one million nine hundred and ninety one thousand three hundred and seventy eight Euros) from Gilfin S.p.A. (“Gilfin”) under the licensing agreement, dated as of 16 July 2009, between TRB International S.A. (“TRB”), as licensor, and Gilfin, as licensee (“Licensing Agreement”). The

21

Execution copy

Parties agree that, as an offset against the Seller’s retention of such royalty prepayment, any royalties earned by TRB from Gilfin pursuant to the Licensing Agreement, which are credited against such royalty prepayment rather than being paid to TRB, shall be deducted from the principal amount of Note A as provided in Paragraph 2.1 of Note A (Appendix 3.2.3) as such royalties are earned during the period between the Closing Date and the Maturity Date of Note A. For example, if a royalty payment of 100,000 Euros has been earned and would otherwise be paid by Gilfin to TRB under the Licensing Agreement on September 30, 2012, but no actual payment is made by Gilfin to TRB because the amount of such payment is credited against the royalty prepayment, then the amount of such royalty payment shall be deducted from the principal amount of Note A on the date it would have otherwise been paid. The provisions of this Article 8.4.1 shall cease to be effective upon the termination of the Licensing Agreement pursuant to Article 8.4.2 and the satisfaction by Seller of all of its payment obligations pursuant to said Article 8.4.2.

8.4.2 The Seller hereby covenants with and undertakes towards the Purchaser that it will use its best efforts to effect the termination of the Licensing Agreement and to secure a full release by Gilfin of any claims against the Company and TRB (the “Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release”), as soon as reasonably possible. Any payments made by the Company or TRB to effect the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release, including any out-of-pocket expenses (including legal fees) of the Company or TRB incurred in connection with the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release, in excess of EUR 1,000,000 (one million Euros), shall be the responsibility of the Seller and shall be paid by the Seller at the time required by the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release. The Purchaser and the Company agree to cooperate, and to cause TRB to cooperate, with the Seller in connection with securing the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release; provided, that neither the Company nor TRB shall be obligated to enter into the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release unless (i) it includes a full release by Gilfin of any claims against the Company and TRB; and (ii) the Seller pays all amounts due under this Article 8.4.2 at the time of such termination. The terms and conditions of the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release shall be subject to the approval of the Purchaser, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Purchaser hereby agrees that, after the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release has been entered into, the Seller may assist Gilfin, directly or indirectly, with respect to

22

Execution copy

the sale of any inventory owned by Gilfin containing or using any Intellectual Property (the “Gilfin Inventory”); provided, however, that (i) such sales of Gilfin Inventory shall be made in a manner consistent with past practices by Group Companies relating to sales of inventory containing Intellectual Property, (ii) the Seller may not sell any Gilfin Inventory to any Person unless the Seller has received the prior written approval of the Company to sell Gilfin Inventory to such Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (iii) no such sales of Gilfin Inventory may be made after June 30, 2013 and (iv) the Seller agrees to immediately destroy, or arrange for the destruction of, any Gilfin Inventory that has not been sold by June 30, 2013. The Seller acknowledges that it has not been granted any rights in or to any Intellectual Property or to use any Intellectual Property, other than the permission to sell Gilfin Inventory as provided in this Article 8.4.2. The Purchaser agrees that (i) if requested by the Seller, the Purchaser will procure that the Group Companies will assist the Seller in connection with the negotiation of the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release, and (ii) the Purchaser will procure that the Group Companies will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Seller with respect to the sale of Gilfin Inventory. If the Gilfin Termination Agreement and Release is not obtained by December 31, 2012 or by any subsequent December 31 through December 31, 2017, the Seller agrees to pay to the Purchaser EUR 1,500,000 (one million five hundred thousand Euros) on each such December 31. The Parties agree that any amounts payable under this Article 8.4.2 shall be deducted, at the Purchaser’s election, from any Earnout payable to the Seller, the principal amount of Note B as provided in Paragraph 7 of Note B (Appendix 3.2.4), the principal amount of Note A as provided in Paragraph 7 of Note A (Appendix 3.2.3), or a combination of the foregoing. If any amounts payable under this Article 8.4.2 cannot be satisfied by deduction from any Earnout or the principal amount of Note A or Note B, the Seller shall pay all such amounts to the Purchaser under this Article 8.4.2 within ten (10) Working Days of the termination date or the applicable December 31 date, as the case may be, by wire transfer to the Purchaser of immediately available funds. If the Seller does not make full payment of such amounts within such ten (10) Working Day period, the amount so payable shall accrue interest at the Interest Rate from and including the termination date or the applicable December 31 date, as the case may be, to and including the date of such payment. Such interest shall be calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

8.5 Bonuses. The Seller shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser Indemnitees harmless from and against, any and all bonuses which become due and payable to any employee of the Group Companies with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date to the extent such bonuses are not properly accounted for in the Closing Working Capital, and for any and all bonuses which become due and payable as a result of the consummation of the transaction as provided for in this Agreement.

8.6 Subordination Agreement. The Purchaser hereby covenants with and undertakes towards the Seller that:

8.6.1 the provisions of the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement by and among Guarantor, Seller and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. entered into on the date of this Agreement (attached hereto as Appendix 8.6.1) (“Subordination Agreement”) do not prevent the Purchaser or the Guarantor from complying with their contractual obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the ability to pay any payable Earnout to the Seller;

8.6.2 while it acknowledges that a limitation exists in the Senior Credit Agreement (as defined in the Subordination Agreement) with respect to the payment of the Earnout, the Senior Credit Agreement permits payments in excess of the limits mentioned as long as the Guarantor satisfies financial covenant and loan availability provisions in the Senior Credit Agreement, and no Senior Default (as defined in the Subordination Agreement) has occurred and is continuing; and

8.6.3 pursuant to section 2.8 of the Subordination Agreement, neither the Purchaser nor the Excluded Subsidiaries (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) including, but not limited to the Company, are restricted by the Subordination Agreement from making any payment with respect to the Notes or the Earnout.

As a further inducement for the Seller to accept the terms and conditions of the Subordination Agreement, the Purchaser hereby covenants to and agrees with the Seller that a Penalty Interest Rate shall accrue as of the respective due date(s) – in addition to any other agreed interest rates pursuant to this Agreement - on any and all payments due by the Purchaser to the Seller under the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Notes and the Earnout) if and to the extent such payments cannot be made as a result of any restrictions contained in the Subordination Agreement or the Senior Credit Agreement.

8.8 Lease Renewals. The Seller hereby covenants with and undertakes towards the Purchaser that it will use its commercially reasonable efforts, as soon as reasonably possible, to: (a) renew the TRB lease of store premises in Antwerp, Belgium, for a renewal term commencing on February 9, 2013 and ending on February 8, 2022, on terms substantially identical to the terms of the existing lease, except that the renewal lease may provide for (i) a monthly rent increase to 4,500 Euros for the store premises and, if TRB elects to continue the lease of a separate apartment, a monthly rent increase to 681.75 Euros for such apartment (or such other monthly rent increases as the Purchaser shall approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), (ii) an increase in the security deposit of three months’ rent to correspond to the increase in monthly rental amount; (iii) inspection of the leased premises by a qualified professional inspector at TRB’s reasonable cost and expense; and (iv) such other changes as the Purchaser shall approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld; and (b) renew the TRB lease of store premises in Knokke, Belgium, for a renewal term beginning on November 1, 2012, on terms substantially identical to the terms of the existing lease except that the renewal lease may provide for (i) a monthly rent increase to 1,675 Euros for the store premises (or such other monthly rent increase as the Purchaser shall approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and (ii) such other changes as the Purchaser shall approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

Mitigation of Losses

9.14 Without prejudice to Article 10.2, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and provide reasonable assistance, to avoid, mitigate or remedy any damage or Losses caused by a breach of a Seller’s Warranty which in the absence of mitigation or remedy would give rise to a liability in respect of any claim under this Agreement.

Insurance Recovery

9.15 The Seller shall not be liable in respect of any Loss(es) in excess of EUR 75,000, to the extent that the Loss(es) in respect of which a claim is or can be recovered under any Insurance Policy to which the Purchaser or the Guarantor is an insured party.

9.17 The amount which an Indemnifying Party is required to pay to an Indemnified Party in respect of Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement will be reduced by any Tax benefits actually recognized by such Indemnified Party arising in connection with the accrual, incurrence or payment of any such Losses (such Tax benefits are collectively referred to herein as “Tax Benefit Amounts”). For this purpose, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize a Tax benefit if, and to the extent that, the Indemnified Party’s cumulative liability for Taxes, calculated by excluding any Tax items attributable to Losses, exceeds the Indemnified Party’s actual cumulative liability for Taxes through the end of the Tax year for which such calculation is being made, calculated by taking into account any Tax items attributable to Losses (to the extent permitted by relevant Tax Law and treating such Tax items as the last items claimed for any Tax year). If any Indemnified Party receives or recognizes any Tax Benefit Amounts in respect of a claim for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement after the full amount of such indemnified claim has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a partial

31

Execution copy

payment of such indemnified claim and such Tax Benefit Amounts exceed the determined remaining unpaid balance of such indemnified claim, then the Indemnified Party will promptly remit (without offset or deduction) to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess (if any) of (i) the amount theretofore paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnified claim, less (ii) the amount of the indemnity payment that would have been due if such Tax Benefit Amounts in respect thereof had been received before the indemnity payment was made, in the case of an indemnification claim against Seller, by increasing the principal amount of Note A by such amount, to the extent that Purchaser had previously reduced the principal amount of Note A, or by paying such amount, to the extent Seller had paid such amount by wire of immediately available funds.

10. Claims

10.1 The Party making a claim under Article 9 is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the Party against whom such claims are asserted under Article 9 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. For purposes of Article 9.17 and this Article 10, if the Purchaser is the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to include the Purchaser, the Guarantor, any of the Group Companies and any of their officers, directors and employees.

10.2 Indemnification procedures

10.2.1 Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses or is otherwise prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defence of any Third Party Claim

32

Execution copy

at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defence; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is the Seller, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defence of any such Third Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Company, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defence of any Third Party Claim, subject to Article 10.2.2, it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defence of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defence thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (A) there are legal defences available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (B) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defence of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Article 10.2.2, pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. The Seller and the Purchaser shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defence of any Third Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Article 11) records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defence of such Third Party Claim.

33

Execution copy

10.2.2 Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Article 10.2.2. If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defence of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defence pursuant to Article 10.2.1, it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

10.2.3 Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses or is otherwise prejudiced by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance

34

Execution copy

alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

10.2.4 Cooperation. Upon a reasonable request by the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party seeking indemnification hereunder in respect of any Direct Claim, hereby agrees to consult with the Indemnifying Party and act reasonably to take actions reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to attempt to reduce the amount of Losses in respect of such Direct Claim. Any costs or expenses associated with taking such actions shall be included as Losses hereunder.

10.3 Without prejudice to Article 10.2, notices of claims under this Agreement shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party within the time limits specified in Article 8.1 or Article 10, as applicable, specifying full information of the legal and factual basis of the claim and the evidence on which the Indemnified Party relies and, if possible, including an estimate of the amount of Losses which are, or are to be, the subject of the claim. Once a Loss is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to Article 8.1 or this Article 10, as applicable, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations within ten (10) Working Days of such final, non-appealable adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds, or, if the Indemnified Party is the Purchaser, the Purchaser shall exercise its right of set-off under Note A as provided therein to the extent any amount remains payable under Note A. The parties hereto agree that should an Indemnifying Party not make full payment of any such obligations within such ten (10) Working Day period, any amount payable shall accrue interest from and including the date of agreement of the Indemnifying Party or final, non-appealable adjudication to and including the date such payment has been made at the Interest Rate; provided, however, that if the Purchaser exercises its set-off right under Note A, no interest shall accrue on the amount set-off beginning on the date that the claim arose.

35

Execution copy

10.4 Without prejudice to Article 10.2, any claim notified to the Seller shall be deemed (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) to be irrevocably withdrawn twelve (12) months after the notice is given pursuant to Article 10.2, unless legal proceedings in respect of it have been formally commenced in accordance with Article 17.3.

10.5 Effect of Investigation. Except as provided in Articles 7.8(ii) and 9.4, the representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of: (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or (ii) the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate, as the case may be.

10.6 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Articles 15, 16 and 18, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from a Party hereto fraudulently concealing the failure to comply with the warranties set forth in this Agreement according to article 199 of the Swiss Code of Obligations) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article 8.1, Article 9 and this Article 10. Any other remedies, in particular any right to rescind or withdraw from the Agreement in accordance with article 205/208 or articles 23ff of the Swiss Code of Obligations, are expressly excluded. Nothing in this Article 10.6 shall limit any Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or to seek any remedy on account of any Person’s fraudulent, criminal or intentional misconduct.

10.7 The Parties hereby waive the application of article 201(1) of the Swiss Code of Obligations.

11. Confidentiality

11.1 No announcement or circular in connection with the existence or the subject matter of this Agreement (or the negotiations leading to it) shall be made or issued by or on behalf of any Party without the prior written approval of the other Parties. This shall not affect any announcement or circular required by Law or, if applicable, the rules of any recognized stock exchange on which the shares of any member of a Party’s group are listed, provided that the Party that has, or whose group member has, an obligation to make an announcement or issue a circular, shall consult with the other Party insofar as is reasonably practicable before compliance with such an obligation;

provided, however, that the Purchaser shall have no obligation to consult with the Seller with respect to its disclosure requirements under the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which requirements include the filing of this Agreement with the SEC.

11.2 From and after the Closing, the Seller, shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and shareholders to, maintain the confidentiality of all non-public information, including, but not limited to Disclosed Information, in its or their possession concerning the Group Companies. The Purchaser shall have no obligation to maintain the confidentiality of information with respect to any Group Company from and after the Closing.

11.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 11.2, each Party may provide non-public information concerning the Group Companies to any Governmental Authority as necessary to comply with the requirements of such Governmental Authority. To the extent permitted by Law, the relevant Party shall seek confidential treatment for such information provided to any Governmental Authority and shall notify the other Party as far in advance as is practicable of its intention to release to any Governmental Authority any such information. In particular, Article 11.2 shall not prohibit disclosure or use of any information, if and to the extent:

11.3.1 the disclosure or use is required by Law or, if applicable, the rules of any recognized stock exchange on which the shares of any Party (or a member of its group) are listed;

11.3.2 the disclosure or use is required for the purpose of any legal proceedings arising out of this Agreement or any other agreement entered into under or pursuant to this Agreement, or the disclosure is made to a Tax Authority in connection with the Tax affairs of the disclosing Party;

11.3.4 the information is or becomes publicly available other than by breach of the Confidentiality Agreement (attached hereto as Appendix 11.3.4) or of this Agreement;

11.3.5 the other Parties have given prior written approval to the disclosure or use; or

11.3.6 the information is independently developed after Closing;

37

Execution copy

provided that prior to disclosure or use of any information pursuant to Article 11.3.1 or 11.3.2, the Party concerned promptly notifies the other Parties of such requirement with a view to providing the other Parties with the opportunity to contest such disclosure or use or otherwise to agree the timing and content of such disclosure or use.

11.4 Announcements in relation to completion of the Transaction shall only take place in accordance with the draft Press Release attached hereto as Appendix 11.4, which announcement shall be dispatched to the press by the Purchaser on the Closing Date.

14. Miscellaneous

14.1 Each of the Parties shall from time to time execute such documents and perform such acts and things as the other Parties may reasonably require to transfer the Shares to the Purchaser, and to give each Party the full benefit of this Agreement.

14.2 The Appendices and the Annexes as mentioned herein form an integral part of this Agreement.

The Confidentiality Agreement is terminated herewith.

14.3 Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, a Party is entitled to all rights that it derives from this Agreement without prejudice to any other rights and claims under this Agreement and all rights and claims under the Law, and no

38

Execution copy

right from a Party under this Agreement or the Law will be affected if (i) no such right is invoked or (ii) no protest is filed against the other Party’s failure to comply with an obligation arising from this Agreement.

14.4 Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no Party to this Agreement may, unless with the prior written consent of the other Parties, assign, grant any security interest over or otherwise transfer, in whole or in part, any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Purchaser or the Company from granting a security interest in this Agreement and, in connection therewith, assigning their respective rights hereunder, to any financial institution extending credit to the Purchaser and/or the Company.

14.5 No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by or on behalf of the Party entitled to make such waiver.

14.7 In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to be void or nonbinding, in whole or in part, the Parties will continue to be bound by the other provisions of this Agreement. The Parties will use reasonable efforts to replace the void or nonbinding provision by a provision that is binding, in such manner that the new provision differs as little as possible from the void or nonbinding provision, taking into account the object and purpose of this Agreement.

14.8 This Agreement may be entered into in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller or its Affiliates may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if the Seller or such Affiliate is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and does not, directly or indirectly, own 5% or more of any class of securities of such Person.

15.2 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Article 15.1 shall prevent or restrict in any manner whatsoever the Seller from, after the Closing Date, trading with its existing customers or any future customers provided that such trading does not constitute a breach of the provisions of Article 15.1.

40

Execution copy

hereby unconditionally promises to pay to FASHION FUND I B.V., a private company with limited liability (besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid) incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (the “Noteholder”), the principal amount of €12,500,000 (TWELVE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND EUROS) (the “Loan”), together with all accrued interest thereon, as provided in this Promissory Note A (the “Note”), dated 7 August, 2012.

This Note is delivered pursuant to the Agreement for the Sale and Purchase of Shares in the Capital of Vilebrequin International SA (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), dated 7 August, 2012, among the Noteholder, the Borrower, the Guarantor and VILEBREQUIN INTERNATIONAL SA, a corporation (société anonyme) incorporated under the laws of Switzerland. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given to them in the Share Purchase Agreement.

“Loan” has the meaning set forth in the second introductory paragraph.

“Maturity Date” means the earlier of (a) December 31, 2017 and (b) the date on which all amounts under this Note shall become due and payable pursuant to Paragraph 6.

2. Final Payment Date; Prepayments.

2.1. Final Payment Date. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loan, all accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable under this Note shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. It is understood that as an offset against Seller’s retention of the royalty prepayment received by TRB from Gilfin, any royalties earned by TRB from Gilfin between the Closing Date and the Maturity Date pursuant to the Licensing Agreement, which are credited against such royalty prepayment rather than being paid to TRB, shall be deducted from the principal amount of the Loan. For example, if a royalty payment of 100,000 Euros has been earned and would otherwise be paid by Gilfin to TRB under the Licensing Agreement on September 30, 2012, but no actual payment is made by Gilfin to TRB because the amount of such payment is credited against the royalty prepayment, then the amount of such royalty payment shall be deducted from the principal amount of the Loan on the date it would have otherwise been paid. The provisions of the preceding two sentences of this Paragraph 2.1 shall cease to be effective upon the termination of the Licensing Agreement pursuant to Article 8.4.2 of the Share Purchase Agreement and the satisfaction by Seller of all of its payment obligations pursuant to said Article 8.4.2.

2.2. Prepayment. The Borrower may prepay the Loan in whole or in part at any time or from time to time without penalty or premium by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment.

3. Interest.

3.1. Interest Rate. Except as otherwise provided herein, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan made hereunder shall bear interest at the Applicable Rate from the date the Loan was made until the Loan is paid in full, whether at maturity, upon acceleration, by prepayment or otherwise.

56

Execution copy

3.2. Interest Payment Dates. Interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears to the Noteholder on each Interest Payment Date.

3.3. Computation of Interest. All computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on the Loan from and after the date hereof, and shall not accrue on the Loan for the day on which it is paid.

3.4. Interest Rate Limitation. If at any time and for any reason whatsoever, the interest rate payable on the Loan shall exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged by the Noteholder to the Borrower under applicable Law, such interest rate shall be reduced automatically to the maximum rate of interest permitted to be charged under applicable Law.

4. Payment Mechanics.

4.1. Manner of Payments. All payments of interest and principal shall be made in lawful money of the European Union (euros) no later than 12:00 noon, Eastern U.S. Time, on the date on which such payment is due by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Noteholder’s account at a bank specified by the Noteholder in writing to the Borrower from time to time.

4.2. Application of Payments. Any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Note or Note B shall be applied first to any amounts then due and owing under Note B, with the balance of any such payment then being applied to the payment of any accrued interest on this Note, and finally to the payment of the principal amount outstanding under this Note.

4.3. Working Day Convention. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Working Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Working Day and such extension will be taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this Note.

4.4. Rescission of Payments. If at any time any payment made by the Borrower under this Note is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had not been made.

4.5. Tax Withholding. To the extent required by applicable law, the Borrower and/or the Guarantor may withhold or deduct from any payment to the Noteholder due hereunder and remit to the appropriate governmental authorities such taxes, including United States federal backup withholding taxes and withholding taxes, as are required to be so withheld or deducted, unless the Noteholder shall have timely furnished to the Borrower such properly completed and executed form or other document prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or reduction in, such withholding taxes.

57

8. Employee Benefits

U.S. Employees

8.1 Annex 8.1 lists each “employee benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) and each other employment, incentive (equity or otherwise), severance, retention, change in control, fringe benefit, perquisite or other compensatory agreement, policy, plan or arrangement provided or maintained by the Company, a Subsidiary or any entity which, together with the Company or a Subsidiary, would be treated as a single employer under Section 414 of the Code (an “ERISA Affiliate”), to, with or for the benefit of any current or former employee, director or consultant of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who is a U.S. citizen or resident or whose employment or other service is or was in the U.S., or any of their respective dependents or beneficiaries (each, a “U.S. Plan”). With respect to each U.S. Plan, true, complete and correct copies of the governing plan document(s) and, where applicable, (1) the governing documents for the trust, insurance policy or other funding vehicle, (2) the current summary plan description and any summary of material modifications, (3) the most recent determination or opinion letter issued by the IRS, and (4) the most recent Form 5500 filing, including attachments thereto, have been made available to the Purchaser in the Data Room.

No U.S. Plan is subject to the minimum funding requirements of Section 412 of the Code. Except as required by Section 4980B of the Code, no U.S. Plan provides post-employment group health or other welfare benefits to any current or former employee, director or consultant (or any of their dependents or beneficiaries).

8.3 Each U.S. Plan is and has been administered and operated in all material respects in compliance with its terms and the requirements of applicable law.

105

Execution copy

Each U.S. Plan that is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code is covered by a favourable determination letter or opinion letter and, to the knowledge of the Seller, no event or circumstance has occurred that could adversely affect such qualified status. There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened claims, governmental audits or investigations with respect to any U.S. Plan, other than routine claims for benefits. All contributions, premium and benefit payments required to be made to, under or in connection with each U.S. Plan have been made on or before the Closing Date.

Non-U.S. Employees

8.4 Annex 8.4 lists all employee benefit plans, and all employment, bonus, stock option, stock purchase, stock appreciation right, restricted stock, restricted stock unit, phantom stock, incentive, deferred compensation, mandatory or non-mandatory profit sharing, retiree medical, dental, vision care, disability, accident or life insurance, cafeteria benefit, dependent care, disability, director or employee loan, employee relocation, fringe benefit, sabbatical, supplemental retirement, severance, or other benefit plans, programs or arrangements to which any Group Company is a party, with respect to which any Group Company has any obligation or which are maintained, contributed to or sponsored by any Group Company for the benefit of any current or former employee, officer or director of any Group Company who is a not a U.S. citizen or resident or whose employment or other service is or was outside of the U.S., or any of their respective dependents or beneficiaries (each, a “Foreign Plan”). With respect to each Foreign Plan, true, complete and correct copies of the governing plan document(s) have been made available to the Purchaser in the Data Room.

8.5 As regards to each Foreign Plan, (i) such Foreign Plan is in material compliance with the provisions of the Laws of each jurisdiction in which such Foreign Plan is maintained, to the extent those Laws are applicable to such Foreign Plan, (ii) all contributions to, and material payments from, such Foreign Plan which may have been required to be made in accordance with the terms of such Foreign Plan, and, when applicable, the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Plan is maintained, have been made on or before the Closing Date, and all such contributions to such Foreign Plan, and all payments under such Foreign Plan, for any period ending before the Closing Date that are not yet, but will be, required to be made, are reflected as an accrued liability on the Accounts (to the extent required to be reflected as such in accordance with GAAP) or are offset by insurance, (iii) the Company and each Subsidiary has materially complied with all applicable reporting and notice requirements, and such Foreign Plan has obtained from the Governmental Authority having jurisdiction with respect to such Foreign Plan any required determinations, if any, that such Foreign Plan is in

106

Execution copy

compliance with the Laws of the relevant jurisdiction if such determinations are required in order to give effect to such Foreign Plan, (iv) such Foreign Plan has been administered in all material respects at all times in accordance with its terms and applicable Laws, (v) there are no pending investigations by any Governmental Authority involving such Foreign Plan, and no pending claims (except for claims for benefits payable in the normal operation of such Foreign Plan), suits or proceedings against such Foreign Plan or asserting any rights or claims to benefits under such Foreign Plan, (vi) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not by itself create or otherwise result in any liability with respect to such Foreign Plan, and (vii) except as required by applicable Laws or the terms of any employment Contracts, no condition exists that would prevent any Group Company from terminating or amending any Foreign Plan at any time for any reason in accordance with the terms of each such Foreign Plan without the payment of any fees, costs or expenses (other than the payment of benefits accrued on the Accounts and any normal and reasonable expenses typically incurred in a termination event). No Foreign Plan has unfunded liabilities that will not be offset by insurance or that are not fully accrued on the Accounts (to the extent required to be reflected as such in accordance with GAAP). Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has ever sponsored, maintained or participated in a Foreign Plan which provides benefits on a defined benefit (including final salary) basis.

8.6 Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has performed all material obligations required to be performed by it under, is not in any respect in default under or in violation of, and has no knowledge of any default or violation by any party to, any Foreign Plan. No action, claim or proceeding is pending or, to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened with respect to any Foreign Plan (other than claims for benefits in the ordinary course) and to the knowledge of the Seller no fact or event exists that would give rise to any such action, claim or proceeding.

8.7 Each Foreign Plan (or prototype for such Foreign Plan) intended to qualify under a favourable exemption tax and/or social contributions regime under the applicable laws and regulations has received a favourable determination, opinion, notification or advisory letter from the relevant authority with respect to each such Foreign Plan as to its qualified status, and to the Company’s knowledge no fact or event has occurred since the date of such determination, opinion, notification or advisory letter from the relevant authority to adversely affect the qualified status of any such Foreign Plan or the exempt status of any such trust, or (ii) has remaining a period of time under applicable regulations in which to apply for such a letter and make any amendments necessary to obtain a favourable determination as to the qualified status of each such Foreign Plan. To the knowledge of the Seller,

107

Execution copy

nothing has occurred since the issuance of each such determination, opinion, notification or advisory letter which would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the Tax-qualified status of any Foreign Plan (or prototype for such Foreign Plan) concerned.

9. Conflicts; Consents of Third Parties

9.1 None of the execution and delivery by the Seller of this Agreement or any of the documents to be executed and delivered by the Seller at the Closing, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or compliance by the Seller with any of the provisions hereof or thereof will conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, revocation, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a benefit under, or give rise to any obligation of any Group Company to make any payment under, or to the increased, additional, accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements of any Person under any provision of, or result in the creation of any Encumbrance in or upon any of the properties or assets of any Group Company under, (i) the constitutional documents of the Group Company; (ii) any Material Contract or Permit (except for any Permit that is not, individually or in the aggregate, material to any Group Company’s business) to which any Group Company is a party or by which it or any of its properties or assets are bound; (iii) any order of a Governmental Authority applicable to the Seller or any Group Company or any of the properties or assets of the Seller or any Group Company; or (iv) any applicable Law.

10. No Undisclosed Liabilities

10.1 The Company has no indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of any kind (whether known or unknown and whether absolute, accrued, contingent or

108

Execution copy

otherwise) that (i) would have been required to be reflected in, reserved against or otherwise described on the balance sheet included in the Accounts or in the respective notes thereto in accordance with GAAP which was not adequately reflected in, reserved against or otherwise described in such balance sheet or the notes thereto or (ii) was not incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since the Accounts Date, it being agreed that obligations and liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business do not include any liability for breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort, infringement claim or lawsuit.
