The Estimated Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. Seller shall consider in good faith, and consult with Purchaser regarding, any comments on the Estimated Closing Statement that are submitted by Purchaser on or before the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if Seller disagrees with any such comments, the position of Seller with respect to such comments shall control for purposes of the calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price; provided, that no such failure shall prejudice or limit Purchaser’s rights pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.6.

2.5 Post-Closing Statements.

(a) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare in good faith and deliver to Seller a statement that sets forth (i) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, (ii) the Closing Cash Amount, (iii) the Closing Indebtedness Amount, and (iv) the Closing Transaction Expense Amount, together with reasonable support and detail of Purchaser’s calculations of the foregoing amounts (such statement, the “Initial Closing Statement”). The Initial Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. If Purchaser fails to deliver the Initial Closing Statement within such ninety (90) day period to Seller, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Estimated Closing Statement shall be binding upon the parties and deemed the Final Closing Statement for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Following the Closing through the date that the Initial Closing Statement has become final and binding in accordance with Section 2.6(c), Seller and their Representatives shall be permitted a reasonable opportunity to access and review the books, records and work papers of the Transferred Entities and Purchaser that are reasonably related to the calculations of the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness Amount and the Closing Transaction Expense Amount, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) and its and their respective employees, accountants and other Representatives to, cooperate with and assist Seller and its Representatives in connection with such review, including by providing access to such books, records and work papers and making available personnel to the extent requested, in each case, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours and subject to the execution of customary access letters and restrictions caused by Pandemic Measures.

2.6 Reconciliation of Initial Closing Statement.

(a) Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing no later than thirty (30) days after Seller’s receipt of the Initial Closing Statement if Seller disagrees with the Initial Closing Statement, which notice shall describe the basis for such disagreement (the “Notice of Disagreement”). If no Notice of Disagreement is delivered to Purchaser within such thirty (30)-day period, then the Initial Closing Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties in accordance with Section 2.6(c). If a Notice of Disagreement is delivered to Purchaser within such thirty (30) day period, then only such portions of the Initial Closing Statement that Seller does not identify or disagree with in the Notice of Disagreement shall become final and binding upon the parties in accordance with Section 2.6(c).

(b) During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (the “Resolution Period”), Seller and Purchaser shall seek in good faith to resolve any differences that they may have with respect to the matters identified in the Notice of Disagreement.

- 21 -

(c) If, at the end of the Resolution Period, Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve any differences that they have with respect to the matters identified in the Notice of Disagreement, Seller and Purchaser shall submit all matters that remain in dispute with respect to the Notice of Disagreement to (i) KPMG LLP or if KPMG LLP is not then available for such engagement, an independent certified public accounting firm in the United States of national reputation mutually acceptable to Seller and Purchaser, or (ii) if Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree upon another such firm within ten (10) Business Days after the end of the Resolution Period, then within an additional ten (10) Business Days, Seller and Purchaser shall each select one independent certified public accounting firm in the United States of national reputation and those two firms shall, within ten (10) Business Days after their selection, select a third (3rd) such firm (the firm selected in accordance with clause (i) or the third firm selected in accordance with clause (ii), as applicable, the “Independent Accounting Firm”). Within thirty (30) days after the Independent Accounting Firm’s selection, the Independent Accounting Firm shall make a final determination in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the definitions contained in this Agreement and based solely on the written submissions of the parties and not an independent review, binding on the parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the matters that remain in dispute solely to the extent indicated in the Notice of Disagreement that Seller and Purchaser have submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. With respect to each disputed matter, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Seller or Purchaser, shall not be in excess of the higher, or less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Seller in the Notice of Disagreement or by Purchaser in the Initial Closing Statement with respect to such disputed matter. For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Accounting Firm shall not review or make any determination with respect to any matter other than the matters that remain in dispute to the extent indicated in the Notice of Disagreement and shall not consider any events or developments that occurred after the Closing. The Initial Closing Statement as finally determined either through agreement of the parties pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b) or through the action of the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.6(c), shall be the “Final Closing Statement.”

(d) All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne on a proportionate basis by Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, based on the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to such Person bears to the amount actually contested. The allocation of such fees and expenses shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with the foregoing sentence, which shall be binding and conclusive on the parties. During the review by the Independent Accounting Firm, each of Purchaser and Seller shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries (including, in the case of Purchaser, the Transferred Entities) and its and their respective employees, accountants and other Representatives to, each make available to the Independent Accounting Firm interviews with such personnel, and such information, books and records and work papers, as may be reasonably requested by the Independent Accounting Firm to fulfill its obligations under Section 2.6(c) and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall engage in any ex parte communication with the Independent Accounting Firm on matters relating to the Initial Closing Statement or Notice of Disagreement. In acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of an arbitrator, it being understood that in acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator.

(e) The process set forth in Section 2.5 and this Section 2.6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser and Seller and their respective Affiliates for any disputes related to the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amount, the Closing Indebtedness Amount, the Closing Transaction Expense Amount, the Post-Closing Adjustment, the calculations and amounts on which they are based or set forth in the related statements and notices delivered in connection therewith, and the application of the Accounting Principles in determining any such amounts, whether or not the underlying facts and circumstances constitute a breach of any representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the purpose of the Working Capital Adjustment Amount is not intended to permit the introduction of different accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or methodologies or to correct for any errors or omissions in the Business Financial Statements, in each case unless explicitly required by the Accounting Principles. The Accounting Principles shall be applied regardless of any breach of

- 22 -

representation or warranty in this Agreement and regardless of any aspect of the Business Financial Statements that is not compliant with GAAP.

2.7 Post-Closing Adjustment. The “Post-Closing Adjustment” may be either a positive or negative amount, and shall be equal to (a) (i) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount set forth in the Final Closing Statement, minus (ii) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, plus (b) (i) the Closing Indebtedness Amount set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, minus (ii) the Closing Indebtedness Amount set forth in the Final Closing Statement, plus (c) (i) the Closing Cash Amount set forth in the Final Closing Statement, minus (ii) the Closing Cash Amount set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, plus (d) (i) the Closing Transaction Expense Amount set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, minus (ii) the Closing Transaction Expense Amount set forth in the Final Closing Statement. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive amount, then Purchaser shall, within two (2) Business Days after the determination of the Post-Closing Amount, issue, and cause the Purchaser Subsidiary to deliver to Seller (or to an Affiliate designated by Seller), an aggregate number of Purchaser Common Shares equal to (A) the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment divided by (B) the Purchaser Reference Share Price. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative amount, then Seller (or an Affiliate designated by Seller) shall, within two (2) Business Days after the determination of the Post-Closing Amount, surrender to the Purchaser Subsidiary an aggregate number of Purchaser Common Shares equal to (A) the absolute value of the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment divided by (B) the Purchaser Reference Share Price. The Purchase Price, as adjusted by the Post-Closing Adjustment, shall be the “Final Purchase Price.” Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law, Seller, Purchaser, the Transferred Entities and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Section 2.7 as an adjustment to the purchase price for all Tax purposes, and the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file their respective Tax Returns accordingly.

2.8 Earnout Purchaser Shares.

(a) As additional consideration for the Shares, (x) if a Triggering Event occurs prior to the Closing, on the Closing Date, and (y) if a Triggering event occurs after the Closing, no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, Purchaser shall issue, and cause the Purchaser Subsidiary to deliver to Seller (or to any Affiliate designated by Seller), the following number of Purchaser Common Shares (as so adjusted, the “Earnout Purchaser Shares”):

(i) upon the occurrence of Triggering Event I, a one-time aggregate issuance of a number of Earnout Purchaser Shares equal to (A) $33,333,333.33 divided by (B) the Trigger Event I Reference Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share;

(ii) upon the occurrence of Triggering Event II, an additional one-time aggregate issuance of a number of Earnout Purchaser Shares equal to (A) $33,333,333.33 divided by (B) the Trigger Event II Reference Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share; and

(iii) upon the occurrence of Triggering Event III, an additional one-time aggregate issuance of a number of Earnout Purchaser Shares equal to (A) $33,333,333.33 divided by (B) the Trigger Event III Reference Price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be entitled to receive Earnout Purchaser Shares upon the occurrence of each Triggering Event; provided, however, that each Triggering Event may only occur once, if at all.

(c) If, during the Earnout Period, there is a Change of Control that will result in the holders of Purchaser Common Shares receiving a per share price (based on the value of the cash, securities or in-kind consideration being delivered in respect of such Purchaser Common Shares) (the “Change of Control Share Price”) equal to or in excess of the applicable share price of a Purchaser Common Share required in connection

- 23 -

with any Triggering Event, then immediately prior to the consummation of such Change of Control (a) any such Triggering Event that has not previously occurred that would occur at the Change of Control Share Price shall be deemed to have occurred and (b) Purchaser shall issue, and cause the Purchaser Subsidiary to deliver to Seller (or to any Affiliate designated by Seller), the applicable Earnout Purchaser Shares, and Seller (or to any Affiliate designated by Seller) shall be eligible to participate in such Change of Control.

(d) Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law, Seller, Purchaser, the Transferred Entities and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Section 2.8 as an adjustment to the purchase price for all Tax purposes, and the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file their respective Tax Returns accordingly.

2.9 Withholding Rights. Seller, the Transferred Entities, Purchaser and any other applicable withholding agent hereunder shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted or withheld, from any payment made pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Law related to Taxes. Other than in respect of compensatory payments to employees of Seller or its Affiliates (which shall be paid through payroll of the applicable employer entity), Purchaser shall provide Seller with fifteen (15) Business Days advance written notice of any amounts that Purchaser intends to withhold or cause to be withheld under this Section 2.9, and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith, as and to the extent reasonably requested by Seller, to minimize or eliminate any potential deductions or withholdings. To the extent that amounts are so deducted, withheld and paid over to the relevant Tax Authorities in accordance with this Section 2.9, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

2.10 Certain Adjustments. If, during the period from the date of this Agreement through the Closing, any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization, conversion or other similar transaction occurs with respect to the outstanding Purchaser Common Shares, or if a stock dividend is declared by Purchaser during such period, or a record date with respect to any such event shall occur during such period, then all calculations provided for that are based on a number of shares of any class or series (or trading prices therefor) affected thereby, including the Purchaser Common Share Closing Consideration, the Primary Issuance Purchaser Shares and the Earnout Purchaser Shares, shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to provide the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event. For the avoidance of doubt, no issuance of Purchaser Equity Awards shall result in such adjustment.

(c) Each Liability Benefit Plan that is intended to be qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination or opinion letter as to its qualification, and, to the Knowledge of Seller, no event or omission has occurred that would cause any Liability Benefit Plan to lose such qualification or

- 32 -

require corrective action to the Internal Revenue Service or Employee Plan Compliance Resolution System to maintain such qualification.

(d) No Transferred Entity nor any ERISA Affiliate has in the past five (5) years maintained, contributed to, or been required to contribute to or had any Liability or obligation (including on account of any ERISA Affiliate) with respect to (whether contingent or otherwise): (i) a “multiemployer plan” (as defined in Section 3(37) of ERISA) (a “Multiemployer Plan”) or a “defined benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA), or any other employee benefit plan that is or was subject to Title IV of ERISA, Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA, (ii) any funded welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 419 of the Code, (iii) any “multiple employer plan” (within the meaning of Section 210 of ERISA or Section 413(c) of the Code), or (iv) any “multiple employer welfare arrangement” (as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA), and none of the Transferred Entities or any ERISA Affiliate have, ever incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA that has not been paid in full.

Each Foreign Benefit Plan required or intended to be registered, qualified or approved under applicable Law has in fact been registered, qualified or approved, as the case may be, under applicable Law and has been maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities in all material respects, and if intended to qualify for favorable tax treatment, to the Knowledge of Seller, there are no existing circumstances or events that have occurred that would reasonably be expected to affect adversely such favorable tax treatment with respect to such Foreign Benefit Plan.

Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Purchaser Entities not to, extend or renew any Contract or Permit containing or underlying a Guarantee unless, prior to or concurrently with such extension or renewal, Purchaser or the Transferred Entities are substituted in all respects for Seller and its Affiliates, and Seller and its Affiliates are released, in respect of all obligations under such Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.10(b) shall require Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to make any payment or other concession to any Person, or commence or participate in any Action, in each case, in connection with this Section 6.10(b), in each case, other than payment obligations that are borne by Seller.

- 63 -

(and shall cause its Affiliates to) (i) at the written request of Purchaser, either continue to pursue (at Purchaser’s cost), to the extent reasonable, the claim for the benefit of the Business or the Transferred Entities (as applicable) or provide such information and assistance as Purchaser may reasonably request to enable the Transferred Entities to pursue and collect any claim; (ii) promptly provide copies of any written correspondence from the insurer(s) addressed to the Transferred Entities, (iii) not do anything intended to adversely affect the ability of Seller or its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities (as the case may be) to effect recovery in respect of any claim; and (iv) if applicable, pass the proceeds of any claim to the relevant entity within five (5) Business Days of receipt, net of any reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket expenses or costs incurred in connection with the receipt thereof.

(a) The parties hereto agree that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability for or in connection with acts or omissions occurring at any time prior to or on the Closing Date (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder), that now exist in favor of any Person who prior to or on the Closing Date is or was a current or former director, manager, officer or employee of a Transferred Entity, or who at the request of Seller or any of its Affiliates served prior to or on the Closing Date in connection with the Business as a director, officer, member, manager, employee, trustee or fiduciary of any other entity of any type (each, a “D&O Indemnified Person”), as provided in the Organizational Documents of a Transferred Entity, or in any Contract between a D&O Indemnified Person and a Transferred Entity listed on Schedule 6.12(a) (an “Indemnity Agreement”), will survive the Closing and will continue in full force and effect for six (6) years following the Closing Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, for the six (6) year period following the Closing Date, Purchaser will cause the Transferred Entities to, and the Transferred Entities shall (i) maintain in the Organizational Documents of each of the Transferred Entities provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liability that in each such respect are at least as favorable to each D&O Indemnified Person as those contained in each Transferred Entity’s respective Organizational Documents, as applicable, as in effect on the date hereof, which provisions will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Person and (ii) continue each Indemnity Agreement without termination, revocation, amendment or other modification that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Person.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, Seller shall purchase, at Seller’s expense, (i) run-off coverage for the D&O Indemnified Persons, which shall provide such D&O Indemnified Persons with coverage for six (6) years following the Closing in an amount not less than the existing coverage and that shall have other terms no less favorable to the insured persons that the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Seller (the “D&O Tail Policy”). The aggregate liability to Purchaser under this Section 6.12 to all D&O Indemnified Persons shall be limited to any recovery under the D&O Tail Policy.

(c) If any Transferred Entity (or any of its successors or assigns) (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any other Person (including by dissolution, liquidation, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar action), then, and in each such case, proper provision will be made so that such other Person fully assumes the obligations set forth in this Section 6.12.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.12 will survive the Closing. This Section 6.12 will be for the irrevocable benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Person and his or her respective heirs, executors, administrators, estates, successors and assigns, and each such Person will be an express intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement for such purposes. With respect to any right to indemnification or advancement for actual or claimed acts or omissions occurring prior to or on the Closing Date (including in

- 64 -

connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), each Transferred Entity, as applicable, will be the indemnitor of first resort (for the avoidance of doubt, only insofar as recovery under the D&O Tail Policy is available), responsible for all such indemnification and advancement that any D&O Indemnified Person may otherwise have from any direct or indirect, current or former stockholder or equityholder of any of the Transferred Entities (or any current or former Affiliate of such stockholder or equityholder) and without right to seek or obtain subrogation, indemnity or contribution.

6.13 Litigation Support. For a period of six (6) years following the Closing, in the event any party hereto or any of its respective Affiliates is prosecuting, contesting or defending any Action, investigation, charge, claim, or demand by or against a third party (other than an Action brought against or by the other party hereto or any Affiliate of such other party) in connection with (a) any transactions contemplated under this Agreement or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance or transaction relating to, in connection with or arising from the Retained Businesses, the Business or the Transferred Entities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any portion of the Retained Businesses that was historically part of a Transferred Entity), as applicable, Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates (and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its and their other Representatives) to, at the expense of the other party, use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the other party (or its applicable Affiliates), and its counsel in such prosecution, contest or defense, including using reasonable best efforts to make available its personnel, participate in meetings, provide such testimony and access to their books and records and take such other actions as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with such prosecution, contest or defense. For a period of six (6) years following the Closing, (i) Seller hereby agrees to, to the extent applicable, move for substitution or take similar actions under applicable Law for Purchaser or one of its Affiliates to be substituted in any and all Actions primarily related to the Business for any member of the Seller Group, and for such member of the Seller Group to be released from any and all such Actions effective as of the Closing and (ii) Purchaser hereby agrees to, or to cause its Affiliates to, to the extent applicable, move for substitution or take similar actions under applicable Law for Seller or one or more of its Affiliates to be substituted in any and all Actions not primarily related to the Business for any Transferred Entities, and to move for the Transferred Entities to be released from any and all such Actions. In the event of any conflict between this Section 6.13 and Article VIII, Article VIII shall control.

6.14 Misdirected Payments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, following the Closing, (i) if any payments due with respect to the Business are paid in error to any member of the Seller Group, Seller shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the Seller Group to, promptly remit by wire or draft such payment to an account or accounts designated in writing by Purchaser and (ii) if any payments due with respect to the Retained Businesses are paid in error to Purchaser, the Transferred Entities or their Affiliates, Purchaser shall, or cause its Affiliates to, promptly remit by wire or draft such payment to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller.

(b) The parties shall reasonably cooperate to effect any transfers or other arrangements described in Section 6.14(a) in a manner that is Tax efficient for the parties and their respective Affiliates, including by treating the Person initially in possession of any such payment referenced in Section 6.14(a) after the Closing as holding such payment as an agent or nominee for the transferee thereof for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

6.15 Wrong Pockets.

(a) If, following the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Seller discovers that it or any other member of the Seller Group is the owner of or possesses any asset (other than any Excluded Asset), or is liable for any Liability, that is primarily related to the Business, then the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to, transfer or cause to be transferred such asset or Liability, as applicable, to a Purchaser Entity (and such Purchaser Entity shall accept any such asset or assume any such Liability) for no additional consideration other than as previously paid as provided in this Agreement.

- 65 -

(b) If, following the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, Purchaser discovers that a Purchaser Entity is the owner of or possesses any asset, or is liable for any Liability, in each case that is primarily related to the Retained Business or that constitutes a Retained Liability, then the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to, transfer or cause to be transferred such asset or Liability, as applicable, to a member of the Seller Group (and Seller or such other member of the Seller Group shall accept any such asset or assume any such Liability) for no additional consideration other than as previously paid as provided in this Agreement.

(c) To the extent that any transfer under Section 6.15(a) or 6.15(b) is required, but not permitted by Law or an applicable Contract, the parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain or structure an arrangement such that Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, shall receive the rights and benefits and/or bear the obligations and burdens, of such asset or Liability.

(d) The parties shall reasonably cooperate to effect any transfers or other arrangements described in Section 6.15(a) or 6.15(b) in a manner that is Tax efficient for the parties and their respective Affiliates, including by treating the Person initially in possession of any such payment after the Closing as holding such payment as an agent or nominee for the transferee thereof for all Tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

6.16 Use of Seller Names; License.

(a) Except as expressly provided in this Section 6.16 or in any Ancillary Agreement and the Marks included in the Business Intellectual Property, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Transferred Entities) shall use, or have or acquire the right to use or any other rights in, any Marks of Seller or any of its Affiliates, including any names, trademarks, service Marks or logos of Seller or any of its Affiliates, or any name, trademark, service Xxxx or logo that, in the reasonable judgment of Seller, is similar to any of the foregoing (the “Seller Names”).

In any event, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date (and in any event within one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter) Purchaser shall and shall cause each of the Transferred Entities to, (A) cease and discontinue use of all Seller Names and (B) complete the removal of the Seller Names from all products, signage, vehicles, properties, technical information, stationery and promotional or other marketing materials, any electronic medium or website, or other marketing materials and other assets.

(c) Purchaser agrees that use of the Seller Names by the Transferred Entities pursuant to this Section 6.16 shall be at a level of quality equal to or greater than that used by the Transferred Entities in the operation of the Business immediately prior to the Closing and such use shall comply with all applicable Laws and industry practice. All goodwill associated with such use shall inure to the benefit of the owner of the Seller Names. Neither Purchaser nor its Affiliates shall take or fail to take any action which, as a result of such action or failure to take such action, would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the value of any of the Seller Names or the goodwill of Seller and its Affiliates associated therewith.

Without limitation to any other remedies, if Purchaser or its Affiliates fail to comply with the foregoing terms and conditions or otherwise fail to comply with any reasonable direction of Seller or any of its Affiliates in relation to

- 66 -

6.17 Use of Transferred Marks; License.

(a) Except as expressly provided in this Section 6.17, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates (excluding, from and after the Closing, the Transferred Entities) shall use, or have or acquire the right to use or any other rights in, any Marks included in the Business Intellectual Property or any variations or derivatives thereof (the “Transferred Marks”).

(b) Seller and its Affiliates may continue temporarily to use the Transferred Marks following the Closing, and solely in a manner consistent with the continued operation of their respective businesses immediately prior to the Closing, to the extent used immediately prior to the Closing, so long as Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, to (i) immediately after the Closing, cease to hold itself out as having any affiliation with the Transferred Entities and (ii) use reasonable best efforts to minimize and eliminate use of the Transferred Marks by it or any of its Affiliates.

(c) Seller agrees that use of the Transferred Marks by Seller or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 6.17 shall be at a level of quality equal to or greater than that used by Seller and its Affiliates in the operation of their respective businesses immediately prior to the Closing and such use shall comply with all applicable Laws and industry practice. All goodwill associated with such use shall inure to the benefit of Transferred Entities. Neither Seller nor its Affiliates shall take or fail to take any action which, as a result of such action or failure to take such action, would reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the value of any of the Transferred Marks or the goodwill of the Transferred Entities associated therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, Seller and its Affiliates shall not (i) permit, enable or request anyone to engage in any act or omission that tarnishes, degrades, disparages or reflects adversely on a Transferred Xxxx, (ii) register or file applications to register in any jurisdiction any Xxxx that consists of, incorporates, is confusingly similar to or is a variation or derivation of any Transferred Xxxx, or (iii) contest the ownership or validity of any Transferred Xxxx.

Prior to the Closing Date, to the extent any Business Intellectual Property is not owned by a Transferred Entity as of the date hereof, Seller (a) shall enter into assignments (in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser) as may be necessary to effectuate the transfer of legal title in such

- 67 -

Business Intellectual Property to the Transferred Entities and shall (b) with respect to any applicable Listed Business Intellectual Property, submit all corresponding filings in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Copyright Office or any similar office or agency anywhere in the world to record such transfer to a Transferred Entity. In the event any member of the Seller Group or any of Seller Group’s Affiliates is divested from the Seller Group or ceases to be an Affiliate of Seller Group, in each case, prior to the Closing Date, such divested member shall enter into an assignment necessary to effectuate the foregoing transfer of legal title in the Business Intellectual Property to the Transferred Entities prior to the effective date of such divestiture.

ARTICLE VII

EMPLOYEE MATTERS COVENANTS

7.1 Transfer of Employees to Transferred Entities. Prior to or on the Closing Date, Seller shall take, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary to take, all actions as are necessary to transfer the employment of any Business Employee who is not employed by a Transferred Entity and who is not a Direct Transfer Employee (as defined in Section 7.2(a)), a Taiwan PEO Employee (as defined in Section 7.2(b)) or a Visa Employee (as defined in Section 7.2(c)) to a Transferred Entity, including by obtaining consent, notifying, consulting with, or negotiating the effect, impact, terms or timing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement with, each labor union or labor organization, works council, or employee group (or employees directly) or Governmental Entity, where so required under applicable Law.

7.2 Transfer of Employees to Seller.

(a) No later than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (or shall cause its applicable Subsidiary to) make an offer of employment, commencing as of the Closing Date, to each Business Employee whom it desires to employ and who is employed in a jurisdiction set forth on Section 7.2(a) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (each, a “Direct Transfer Employee”), which offer shall be made on the terms and conditions set forth in this Article VII and in compliance with applicable Law (each such offer, a “Qualifying Offer”). Where required by applicable Law, Purchaser and Seller (or their applicable Subsidiaries) agree to enter into all necessary agreements needed to effect the transfer of the Direct Transfer Employees. With respect to each Direct Transfer Employee who does not receive a Qualifying Offer, Purchaser shall promptly reimburse and otherwise indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates for all reasonable severance that is consistent with past practice of Seller or its applicable Affiliate and other legally required termination-related payments and benefits that are payable to a Direct Transfer Employee due to termination of the employment of such Direct Transfer Employee with Seller and its Subsidiaries.

(b) Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Business Employee employed in Taiwan (such Business Employees, the “Taiwan Employees”) to become employed by a to-be formed Taiwanese entity (such entity, the “Taiwan Subsidiary”). If the Taiwan Employees are not able to be employed by the Taiwan Subsidiary at least ten (10) Business Days prior to Closing, then Seller and Purchaser will work together in good faith to provide that, effective as of the Closing Date, each Business Employee who is employed in Taiwan becomes employed by a professional services organization pursuant to an agreement entered into between Purchaser (or one of its Subsidiaries) and such organization (each such Business Employee who becomes employed by such organization, a “Taiwan PEO Employee”).

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Business Employee set forth on Section 7.2(c) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (each, a “Visa Employee”) will remain employed by Seller or one of its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date until the date that such Visa Employee has met the applicable visa-related milestone (the date on which such milestone is met, the “Milestone Date”). During the period from the Closing Date through the applicable Milestone Date, each Visa Employee will provide services to Purchaser pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement on such terms as will be mutually agreed upon between the parties prior the Closing Date. Effective as of the applicable Milestone Date (and, for clarity, contingent on successfully meeting

- 75 -

the applicable visa-related milestone), each Visa Employee will commence employment with Purchaser or its applicable Subsidiary. Following the date hereof, the parties will cooperate in good faith to determine if any additional Business Employees should be treated as Visa Employees hereunder.

(d) Each Business Employee who remains employed by a Transferred Entity immediately following the Closing, each Direct Transfer Employee who commences employment with Purchaser or one of its Subsidiaries in accordance with Section 7.2(a), each Taiwan PEO Employee, and each Visa Employee who commences employment with Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries is referred to herein as a “Transferred Business Employee.”

7.3 Seller LTI and STI Awards.

(a) Seller shall retain all liabilities in respect of each long-term cash or equity-based incentive or retention award granted to any Transferred Business Employee that is outstanding as of the Closing (each, a “Seller LTI Award”), including the cash retention awards set forth on Section 7.3(b) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (each, a “Retention Award”) and the long-term cash awards set forth on Section 7.3(c) of the Seller Disclosure Letter (each, a “VZ Award”). For purposes of the Seller LTI Awards (other than the Retention Awards), the Transferred Business Employees shall be treated as though involuntarily terminated by Seller without cause (or as a result of retirement, as applicable) upon the Closing with respect to the accelerated vesting provisions of the Seller LTI Awards.

(b) Promptly following the date that a Retention Award is earned by a Transferred Business Employee in accordance with the terms of such Retention Award, Purchaser shall notify Seller that such Retention Award was earned, and Seller shall (or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to) pay such Retention Award to such Transferred Business Employee on the applicable payment date, subject to such Transferred Business Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims if required by the terms of such Retention Award.

(c) With respect to the portion of each VZ Award that vests as a result of the Closing, Seller shall (or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to) pay the applicable cash amount to such Transferred Business Employee on the applicable payment date, subject to such Transferred Business Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims on the terms required by such VZ Award. With respect to the portion of each VZ Award that is forfeited as a result of the Closing (each such portion, a “Forfeited VZ Award”), on or promptly following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall grant to the Transferred Business Employee who previously held such Forfeited VZ Award a long-term cash award (a “Replacement VZ Award”). Each Replacement VZ Award will be subject to the same vesting (including accelerated vesting on termination of employment), payment and forfeiture provisions as applied to the corresponding Forfeited VZ Award. If a Replacement VZ Award is earned by a Transferred Business Employee in accordance with the terms of such Replacement VZ Award, Purchaser shall pay the applicable cash amount to such Transferred Business Employee on the applicable payment date, and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for such payment promptly, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days, following notice thereof from Purchaser.

(d) With respect to any annual bonus that is accrued by Seller with respect to a Transferred Business Employee for the portion of the 2022 calendar year ending on the Closing Date, if such Transferred Business Employee remains employed with Purchaser (or its applicable Subsidiary) through December 31, 2022, Purchaser (or its applicable Subsidiary) shall pay the amount of such accrued annual bonus to such Transferred Business Employee following December 31, 2022 concurrently when Purchaser otherwise makes annual bonus payments to its employees, and Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for such payment promptly, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days, following notice thereof from Purchaser.

- 76 -

Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing (provided that Purchaser may pay any such short-term incentive compensation that is earned in the form of vested Purchaser Common Shares having a grant date value equal to the amount of cash that otherwise would have been payable), (b) target short-term incentive compensation and commission opportunities that are substantially comparable to the target short-term incentive compensation and commission opportunities as in effect for such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing, (c) target long-term incentive compensation opportunities that are substantially comparable to the target long-term incentive compensation opportunities as in effect for such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing (provided that, in lieu of equity-based incentives, Purchaser may instead provide Transferred Business Employees with cash-based incentives), (d) severance benefits in amounts and upon and under terms, conditions and provisions that are at least as favorable as the severance benefits provided by any Transferred Entity, Seller or any applicable Affiliate of Seller to such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing and (e) employee benefits that are substantially comparable, in the aggregate, to those in effect with respect to such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing; provided that for the purposes of this Section 7.4, (i) any determination with respect to the terms and conditions of employment shall be based solely upon the information provided on the employee census set forth on Section 4.11 of the Seller Disclosure Letter, as such information may be supplemented by Seller as reasonably requested by Purchaser for purposes of its compliance with this Section 7.4; and (ii) defined benefit pension plans, nonqualified defined contribution plans and retiree health and welfare plans shall be disregarded, except as prohibited by applicable Law.

7.5 Service Credit. As of and after the Closing, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, (a) give each Transferred Business Employee full credit for all purposes under each employee benefit plan maintained or sponsored by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any defined benefit pension, equity or equity-based, long-term incentive, nonqualified deferred compensation or post-termination or retiree health or welfare benefits), for such Transferred Business Employee’s service prior to the Closing with Seller and its applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) and their respective predecessors, to the same extent such service is recognized by Seller and its applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) immediately prior to the Closing; provided, that such credit shall not be given to the extent that it would result in a duplication of benefits, and (b) honor all accrued and unpaid vacation, accrued and unpaid paid time-off or other accrued and unpaid vacation benefits for each Transferred Business Employee in accordance with the terms of the applicable vacation and paid time-off policies of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries and applicable Law.

7.6 Health Coverage. To the extent that any Transferred Business Employee (and his or her eligible dependents) becomes eligible to participate in a group health plan or plans of Purchaser or its Affiliates, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such plans (a) do not limit or exclude coverage on the basis of any pre-existing condition of such Transferred Business Employee or dependent (other than any limitation already in effect under the corresponding group health Seller Benefit Plan) or on the basis of any other exclusion or waiting period not in effect under the applicable group health Seller Benefit Plan, and (b) provide such Transferred Business Employee full credit, for the year in which the Closing occurs, for any deductible, co-payment or out-of-pocket expenses already incurred by the Transferred Business Employee under the applicable group health Seller Benefit Plan during such year for purposes of any deductible, co-payment or maximum out-of-pocket expense provisions, as applicable, of such Purchaser or Affiliate group health plans.

7.7 Seller Benefit Plans. Purchaser and the Transferred Entities shall not assume any obligations under, or Liabilities with respect to, or receive any right or interest in any trusts relating to, any assets of or any insurance, administration or other contracts, or related obligations pertaining to, any Seller Benefit Plan; provided that, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, each Transferred Business Employee shall be entitled to effect a direct rollover of any eligible rollover distributions (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code), excluding loans, from the applicable 401(k) plan maintained by Seller or its Affiliate to a 401(k) plan maintained by Purchaser or its Affiliate. As of the Closing Date, the Transferred Business Employees and their eligible dependents will cease any participation in each of the Seller Benefit Plans; provided, that Transferred Business Employees and their eligible dependents may continue to participate in such Seller Benefit Plans as terminated

- 77 -

but vested employees (or eligible dependents thereof) in accordance with, and subject to their eligibility under, the terms of such Seller Benefit Plans. Seller will be solely responsible for complying with the requirements of Part 6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code for any individual whose employment with a Transferred Entity terminates on or prior to the Closing Date and who is an “M&A qualified beneficiary” as defined in Treas. Reg. Sec. 54.4980B-9 (A-4).

7.8 CIIAAs. Prior to the Closing, and in exchange for valid consideration, Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause each Transferred Business Employee that has not executed a confidential information and invention assignment agreement with a Transferred Entity to execute a confidential information and invention assignment agreement in a form mutually agreeable to the parties (a “CIIAA”), which, in each case, shall become effective as of the Closing.

7.9 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Without limiting the generality of Section 12.5, nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall (a) be treated as an amendment to, or be construed as amending, any Seller Benefit Plan or other benefit plan, program or agreement sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Seller, any Transferred Entity, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, (b) prevent Purchaser or its Affiliates from terminating any other benefit plan in accordance with its terms, (c) prevent Purchaser or its Affiliates, on or after the Closing Date, from terminating the employment of any Transferred Business Employee, or (d) confer any rights or remedies (including third-party beneficiary rights) on any current or former director, employee, consultant or independent contractor of Seller, any Transferred Entity, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates or any beneficiary or dependent thereof or any other Person.

(a) After the Closing, each party to this Agreement shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide to the other party to this Agreement such cooperation, documentation and information as either of them reasonably may request in connection with (i) the timely preparation of any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, (ii) the determination of a Liability for Taxes or a right to refund of Taxes, (iii) the conduct of any audit, examination, contest, litigation, or other proceeding with or against any Tax Authority or (iv) preparing any financial statement in relation to Taxes, in each case, to the extent relating to the Transferred Entities and to the extent such information is in the possession of the party from which it is requested. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with all relevant portions of relevant accompanying schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Tax Authorities and, powers of attorney with respect to relevant Taxes or Tax Returns.

(d) Any Transaction Tax Deductions shall be allocated to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, in each case, to the extent so deductible at a “more likely than not” or higher standard.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, in no event shall Seller or any of its Affiliates be required to provide Purchaser (or its Representatives) with any Tax Return of a member of the Seller Group or any consolidated, combined, affiliated, aggregate, unitary, or similar Tax Return that includes a member of the Seller Group (a “Seller Return”), other than separate schedules or portions of such Tax Return (if any) relating exclusively to the Transferred Entities and in the possession of Seller or its Affiliate. To the extent that Seller makes an election pursuant to Section 1.1502-36(d) of the Treasury Regulations or another election that impacts the asset basis or any other tax attribute of any Transferred Entity, Seller shall timely provide to the Purchaser information relating to any change to any Transferred Entity’s tax attributes (including tax basis) resulting from such election.

8.3 Tax Returns and Tax Filings.

(a) Seller shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, as required by applicable Law with the appropriate Tax Authority in a timely manner (taking into account any applicable extensions) all Tax Returns of the Transferred Entities (“Transferred Entity Tax Returns”) for any taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date. Seller shall (or shall cause its Affiliates to, as applicable) timely pay all Taxes due with respect to such Transferred Entity Tax Returns, to the extent such Taxes are Pre-Closing Taxes and are not otherwise taken into account in the Final Purchase Price. Where required by applicable Laws, Purchaser shall (or shall cause its Affiliates to, as applicable) join in the execution of any Transferred Entity Tax Returns and other documentation prepared by Seller. Seller shall deliver each Transferred Entity Tax Return due after the Closing Date in draft form (together with schedules, statements, and supporting documentation, if reasonably requested) to Purchaser for its review at least thirty (30) days prior to the date any such Tax Return is required to be filed (taking into account applicable extensions) or, in the case of a Tax Return other than relating to Income Taxes, as soon as reasonably practical thereafter and shall, in each case, consider in good faith any comments made by Purchaser with respect to such Transferred Entity Tax Return. If Purchaser and Seller cannot mutually agree on a resolution of comments delivered by Purchaser, the item(s) in question shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.3(d).

(b) Purchaser shall timely prepare and file or cause to be timely prepared and filed all Transferred Entity Tax Returns with respect to any Straddle Period. All such Transferred Entity Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with the past practices of the Transferred Entities, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(c) With respect to a Transferred Entity Tax Return for any Straddle Period that is required to be filed on a quarterly or less frequent basis, other than any such Tax Return that is due within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver each such Transferred Entity Tax Return in draft form (together with schedules, statements, and supporting documentation, if requested) to Seller for its review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the date any such Tax Return is required to be filed (taking into account applicable extensions). Seller shall provide any comments to such Transferred Entity Tax Returns within fifteen (15) days of having received such Transferred Entity Tax Return, and Purchaser shall consider all comments to such Transferred Entity Tax Returns in good faith. If Purchaser and Seller cannot mutually agree on a resolution of comments delivered by Seller, the item(s) in question shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.3(d). With respect to a Transferred Entity Tax Return for any Straddle Period that is not described in the first sentence of this Section 8.3(c), including any Tax Return required to be filed within forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall submit such Transferred Entity Tax Return in draft form (together with schedules, statements, and supporting documentation, if requested) to Seller for its review and comment as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date but no less than five (5) days before the relevant due date of such Tax Return. Seller shall provide any comments to such Transferred Entity Tax Returns within three (3) days of having received such Transferred Entity Tax Return, and Purchaser shall consider all comments to such Transferred Entity Tax Returns in good faith. If Purchaser and Seller cannot mutually agree on a resolution of comments delivered by Purchaser, the item(s) in question shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.3(d). Where required by applicable Laws, Seller shall (or shall cause its Affiliates to, as applicable) join in the execution of any Transferred Entity Tax Returns and related documentation prepared by Purchaser.

(d) If Purchaser and Seller cannot mutually agree on a resolution of comments delivered by Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, under Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(c) after good faith discussion, the item(s) in question shall timely (whether before or after filing of the relevant Tax Return) be referred to, and resolved by, the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with the procedures and rules set forth in Section 2.6, applied mutatis mutandis, and following the final resolution of the item(s) in question, the preparing party shall cause any relevant Tax Returns to be revised or amended to reflect such final resolution and give the non-preparing party a reasonable opportunity to review the same prior to filing. In each case described in this Section 8.3(d) (where the parties or the Independent Accounting Firm, as applicable, have not resolved the comments prior to the due date for filing the relevant Tax Return, taking into account any applicable extensions), the relevant Tax Return shall be filed in a manner determined by the preparing party. Purchaser shall timely pay to the appropriate Tax Authority all Taxes shown as due on any Transferred Entity Tax Return prepared pursuant to Section 8.3(c), and, without limiting or expanding the indemnification provisions of Article XI, Seller shall, prior to the due date therefor but, in each case, solely to the extent such Taxes are not otherwise taken into account in the Final Purchase Price or any component thereof, pay its portion of the Taxes shown on such Transferred Entity Tax Returns (as determined in accordance with this Agreement) to Purchaser, except to the extent relating to items contested by Seller under this Section 8.3(d) in good faith, in which case Seller shall make such payment within five (5) Business Days of the resolution of the item in question by the Independent Accounting Firm.

(e) Notwithstanding the deadlines set forth in this Section 8.3 with respect to the preparation of any Tax Return described therein, Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate to set earlier or later deadlines if it is reasonably necessary in order to timely file or to allow sufficient time for preparation and review of such Tax Return prior to the due date of such Tax Return (including applicable extensions). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 8.3 or otherwise, this Section 8.3 shall not be read to confer any rights on Purchaser relating to any Seller Return or any Tax Return due on or prior to the Closing Date.

8.4 Tax Contests.

(a) Following the Closing, if Purchaser, any of its Affiliates or any of the Transferred Entities receives notice of any audit, examination, investigation, proceeding, or other action that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period of a Transferred Entity or that, if resolved adversely, could reasonably be expected to increase the liability of any member of the Seller Group for Taxes or reduce their entitlement to Tax refunds or

- 80 -

Tax credits, in each case, including pursuant to an indemnification obligation or any other matter contemplated by this Agreement (a “Tax Contest”), then Purchaser shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) give written notice to Seller of such Tax Contest; provided, that failure to comply with this provision, if Seller is not actually and materially prejudiced thereby, shall not affect Purchaser’s right to indemnification hereunder. Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax Contest and, to the extent known, the amount at issue therein and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received relating to such Tax Contest.

(b) In the case of a Tax Contest relating exclusively to Pre-Closing Tax Periods in which the relevant Tax has been imposed on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity), Seller or its designee (collectively, the “Seller Party”) shall have the right, at its own expense, to control the conduct of such Tax Contest. The Seller Party shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith and keep Purchaser reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to such Tax Contest. Purchaser shall have the right to participate in (but not control) such Tax Contest at its own expense, and the Seller Party shall not settle, compromise or concede any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of Purchaser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

(c) In the case of any Tax Contest relating exclusively to Tax periods beginning on or after the Closing Date in which the relevant Tax has been imposed on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity), Purchaser shall have the right to control the conduct of such Tax Contest. Purchaser shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith and keep the Seller Party reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to such Tax Contest. The Seller Party shall have the right to reasonably participate in (but not control) such Tax Contest at its own expense, and Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, settle, compromise or concede any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Seller Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

(d) In the case of any Tax Contest relating both to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and to Tax periods beginning on or after the Closing Date in which the relevant Tax has been imposed on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity), the Seller Party shall have the right to control the conduct of such Tax Contest if the number of days in Prior Agreement Tax Periods that are within the scope of such Tax Contest is greater than the number of days that are within the scope of such Tax Contest and are not in Prior Agreement Tax Periods, and otherwise Purchaser shall control the conduct of such Tax Contest. The party controlling the Tax Contest shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith and keep the other party reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to such Tax Contest. The non-controlling party shall have the right to participate in (but not control) such Tax Contest at its own expense, and the controlling party shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, settle, compromise or concede any such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the non-controlling party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Seller Party shall have the exclusive right to control in all respects, and neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to participate in, any Tax Contest with respect to any Seller Return and (ii) in the event of any conflict between this Section 8.4 and Section 11.5, the provisions of this Section 8.4 shall control.

8.5 Post-Closing Tax Covenant. Following the Closing, except as explicitly contemplated by this Agreement or to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) not to, without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), take any of the following actions to the extent such action relates to the Transferred Entities or could reasonably be expected to impact the Taxes of Seller or any of its Affiliates: (i) make, change or revoke any Tax election (including an election to waive the carryback of any Tax attribute existing as of the Closing Date), (ii) take any action on the Closing Date after the Closing that is outside the ordinary course of business, (iii) amend any Tax Return or election made in connection with such Tax Return, (iv) change any method of accounting for Tax purposes or Tax accounting period, (v) enter into any

- 81 -

voluntary disclosure agreement or similar process with a Tax Authority, (vi) agree to any waiver or extension of the statute of limitations in respect of Taxes, (vii) surrender any right to claim a refund or credit of Taxes, or (viii) carry back any item of loss, deduction or credit of any Transferred Entity that arises in any taxable period ending after the Closing Date into any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date.

8.6 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller shall each be responsible for fifty percent (50%) of any sales, use, transfer, real property transfer, registration, documentary, conveyance, goods and services, stamp, value added, or similar Taxes and related expenses (including the expense of preparing any associated Tax Return), fees and costs (including any penalties or interest) imposed on or payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”), other than in respect of Pre-Closing Restructuring Taxes or Transfer Taxes imposed in connection with the Local Transfers, which shall be borne 100% by Seller or an applicable member of a Seller Group. Each of Seller, Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with respect to the filing of all Tax Returns relating to Transfer Taxes.

8.7 Tax Refunds. Without duplication, Seller shall be entitled to any Tax refunds, prepayments or credits available to reduce, or creditable against, cash Taxes (including interest thereon received from the relevant Tax Authority) for which Seller is responsible under this Agreement (including refunds and credits arising by reason of amended Tax Returns filed after the Closing Date or otherwise) (“Tax Refunds”), in each case, that are actually received or realized by Purchaser, any Transferred Entity, or any of their respective Affiliates. Any such Tax Refund for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned to Seller in accordance with the principles set forth in the definition of “Straddle Period.” If Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) actually receives or realizes a Tax Refund, then Purchaser shall pay, or cause its Affiliates to pay, to Seller the amount of such Tax Refund (less any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred for the purpose of obtaining such Tax refund and including any interest paid thereon by the relevant Tax Authority) within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the Tax Refund or the application of such Tax Refund against current or future amounts otherwise payable, as applicable. To the extent any such Tax Refund is subsequently disallowed by the applicable Tax Authority, Seller agrees to promptly repay to Purchaser the amount of such Tax Refund, together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Tax Authority with respect to such disallowance.

8.8 Transaction Tax Treatment.

(a) Purchaser shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, take all actions as may be necessary to ensure that (i) prior to (in respect of Direct Parent and the Purchaser Subsidiary), and for two (2) years following, the Closing, (A) the Purchaser Subsidiary is wholly-owned by a direct or indirect Subsidiary of Purchaser, (B) the Company is wholly-owned by the Purchaser Subsidiary and (C) each of Direct Parent, the Purchaser Subsidiary and the Company is, and remains, an entity taxed as a corporation for U.S. federal, and applicable state and local, income Tax purposes and (ii) there is no distribution or transfer (including by merger or consolidation or via any transaction treated as a distribution or transfer for U.S. federal, or applicable state or local, income Tax purposes) of substantially all of the assets held by either Direct Parent, the Purchaser Subsidiary or the Company, in each case, except to the extent Purchaser obtains an opinion from an Independent Accounting Firm stating such action would not cause the Sale or any component thereof to qualify as tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.

(b) Purchaser (i) represents and warrants that it has no current plan or intent to liquidate, wind-up or dissolve (including by virtue of any action that would be treated as a liquidation for U.S. federal, or applicable state or local, income Tax purposes), or to distribute or transfer (including by merger, consolidation or via any transaction treated as a distribution or transfer for U.S. federal, or applicable state or local, income Tax purposes) substantially all of the assets held by either Direct Parent, the Purchaser Subsidiary or the Company, and (ii) agrees to use its best efforts to not take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause the Sale or any component thereof to qualify as tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.

- 82 -

(c) Each of Purchaser and Seller agrees and intends that Purchaser Subsidiary’s acquisition of the Shares shall be treated as a taxable transaction for U.S. federal, and all applicable state and local, income Tax purposes (the “Intended Tax Treatment”), and each of Purchaser and Seller shall, and each shall cause its respective Affiliates to, file all of its applicable Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, except as otherwise required by a final “determination,” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

8.9 Purchase Price Allocation. Schedule 8.9 of the Seller Disclosure Letter shall set forth the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to the Specified Assets transferred by each Local Seller in each Local Transfer, and, to the extent required under applicable Law, to the employee transfers contemplated by Section 7.2. To the extent Schedule 8.9 of the Seller Disclosure Letter does not set forth such allocation, or Seller elects to modify such allocation, Seller shall, at least twenty (20) days prior to the date of the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting, deliver to Purchaser, in respect of each Local Seller, any draft updates to Schedule 8.9, and Seller shall incorporate in good faith any reasonable comments made by Purchaser with respect to such allocation within ten (10) days of Purchaser’s receipt thereof, and shall deliver a final Local Transfer purchase price allocation to Purchaser at least five (5) days prior to the date of the Purchaser Stockholder Meeting (the “Final Local Transfer Allocation”). Each of Purchaser and Seller shall, and each shall cause its respective Affiliates to, file all of its applicable Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Final Local Transfer Allocation, except as otherwise required by an applicable Tax Authority.

10.2 Notice of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement by either or both of Seller and Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1 (other than Section 10.1(a)), written notice of such termination shall be given by the terminating party to the other party.

10.3 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by either or both of Seller and Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall terminate and become void and have no effect, and there shall be no Liability on the part of any party to this Agreement, except as set forth below; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no termination of this Agreement shall relieve any party hereto from Liability for Fraud or willful and material failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement (which the parties acknowledge and agree, in the case of any damages sought by Seller or the Company, will not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs, and will include the benefit of the bargain lost by Seller (including “lost premium”), taking into consideration relevant matters, including the total amount payable to Seller under this Agreement and the time value of money, which in each case shall be deemed in such event to be damages of the Company and shall be recoverable by the Company on behalf of Seller). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of Section 6.4 (Confidentiality), Section 6.5(e) (Required Actions), Section 6.7 (Public Announcement), Article XII (General Provisions) and this Section 10.3 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(b) If this Agreement is validly terminated (i) by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(e), (ii) by Purchaser pursuant to Section 10.1(f) or (iii) by Purchaser, pursuant to Section 10.1(d) at a xxxx Xxxxxx could have

- 86 -

terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(e), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller or its designee a cash amount equal to $9,000,000 (the “Purchaser Termination Fee”). In the event that the Purchaser Termination Fee is payable, Purchaser will pay the Purchaser Termination Fee to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds within two (2) Business Days after the date that this Agreement is so validly terminated and receipt of wire transfer instructions from Seller.

(c) If this Agreement is validly terminated by (i) Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(b) or Section 10.1(d) or (ii) Seller pursuant to Section 10.1(h), and (1) following the date of this Agreement and prior to such termination, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly disclosed or shall have otherwise become publicly known and (2) within twelve (12) months after such termination, Purchaser enters into a definitive Contract with respect to an Acquisition Proposal (and subsequently consummates such Acquisition Proposal) or consummates an Acquisition Proposal (which need not be the same Acquisition Proposal that was made, announced or publicly known prior to the termination hereof) (provided that for all purposes of this Section 10.3(c), the term Acquisition Proposal shall have the meaning assigned to such term herein, except that the references to “20%” shall be deemed to be references to 50%), then Purchaser shall pay to Seller (or its designee) the Purchaser Termination Fee concurrently with entering into a definitive Contract or the consummation of such Acquisition Proposal.

(d) Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 10.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and hereby agree that the Purchaser Termination Fee, if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.3, shall not constitute a penalty, but will be liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Seller for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay the Purchaser Termination Fee on more than one occasion. Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that upon payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee, if, as and when required pursuant to 10.3(b), plus the amounts, if any, due and owing to Seller pursuant to Section 10.3(e), (1) none of the Purchaser Related Parties will have any further Liability to Seller relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any matters forming the basis of such termination; and (2) none of Seller or any other Person will be entitled to bring or maintain any Proceeding against Purchaser or any Purchaser Related Party arising out of this Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination.

(e) If Purchaser fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 10.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, Seller commences an Action that results in a judgment against Purchaser for any amount due pursuant to this Section 10.3 or any portion thereof, Purchaser shall pay to Seller its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with Seller’s claim for any amount due pursuant to this Section 10.3 (including such Action), together with interest on such amount or portion of any amount due pursuant to this Section 10.3 that Purchaser failed to pay at the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date that such payment or portion thereof was required to be made through the date that such payment or portion thereof was actually received by Seller.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 10.3 shall limit the right of Seller or the Company to bring or maintain any Action (i) for injunction, specific enforcement of the obligations of Purchaser or any other party under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, or other equitable relief as provided in Section 12.11 or in the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, (ii) arising out of or in connection with any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or Section 6.4, or (iii) against Purchaser in connection with Section 6.5(e). For the avoidance of doubt, while Seller may pursue both a grant of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 12.11 and the payment of the Purchaser

- 87 -

Termination Fee under no circumstances shall Seller be permitted or entitled to receive both (A) a grant of such equitable relief that results in the consummation of the Sale and/or the Primary Issuance, and (B) the Purchaser Termination Fee.

10.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, either Seller, on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or covenants of the other, or conditions for such party’s benefit, contained in this Agreement. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party granting such extension or waiver.

(a) The amount of any and all Losses indemnifiable pursuant to Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 shall be determined net of any amounts recovered by an Indemnified Party under insurance policies or any other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement) with respect to such Losses, in each case, net of costs of collection and any increase to premiums resulting from making any claim thereunder. In any case where an Indemnified Party so recovers, under insurance policies or from any other collateral source, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was indemnified pursuant to Section 11.2 or Section 11.3, as applicable, not already taken into account pursuant to this Section 11.4(a), such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the applicable Indemnifying Party the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of the sum of (A) any amount previously so paid to such Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such matter and (B) any amount expended by the applicable Indemnifying Party in pursuing or defending any claim arising out of such matter.

(b) Purchaser Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 or otherwise under this Agreement for any Loss to the extent (i) attributable to any breach by Purchaser of this Agreement, (ii) attributable to any Pre-Closing Taxes resulting from any action taken by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) after the Closing but on the Closing Date outside of the Ordinary Course of Business not otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) relating to the amount, sufficiency or usability in any taxable period of any net operating loss, capital loss, Tax basis or other Tax asset or other attribute relating to Taxes, or (iv) relating to Taxes for any Post-Closing Tax Period (except as specifically included in the definition of Pre-Closing Taxes). No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 11.2 or Section 11.3 for any Loss to the extent that such Loss (or any matter giving rise to such Loss) was taken into account in the Final Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to Sections 2.6 through 2.8 or the relevant amount was paid by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.3. In no event shall (x) the indemnification obligations of Seller under Section 11.2(g) exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000) and (b) the cumulative indemnification obligation of Seller or Purchaser under this Article XI exceed the Final Purchase Price.

(c) Neither Purchaser Indemnitees nor the Seller Indemnitees shall be entitled to recover for the same Loss more than once under this Article XI or otherwise under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement even if a claim for indemnification or otherwise in respect of such Loss has been made as a result of a breach of more than one covenant, agreement or representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

11.5 Notification of Claims. Purchaser and Seller agree, for themselves and on behalf of Purchaser Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees, respectively:

(a) A Person that is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Article XI (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article XI, describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim (to the extent known or reasonably ascertainable); provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article XI except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. The parties agree that (i) notices for claims must be delivered prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified in Section 11.1 and (ii) any claims for indemnification for which notice is not delivered prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period shall be expressly barred and are hereby waived; provided, that if, prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, an Indemnified Party shall have notified the Indemnifying Party in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.5 of a claim for indemnification, such claim shall continue to be subject to indemnification in accordance with this Section 11.5 notwithstanding the expiration of the applicable survival period.

- 89 -

(b) Upon receipt of notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 11.5 in respect of a pending or threatened claim or demand by a third party (such claim or demand being a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party may, by prompt written notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim, with its own counsel (reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) and at its own expense, subject to the limitations herein; provided, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 11.5(b), the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim, and if the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of such Third Party Claim, shall cease to defend and control such Third Party Claim if (i) the Third Party Claim includes, relates to, or arises in connection with any criminal charges, proceedings, actions, indictments, investigations or allegations by any Governmental Entity against any Indemnified Party, (ii) the Third Party Claim involves any injunctive relief or equitable remedy or relief other than for monetary damages against any Indemnified Party, (iii) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there are legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party and that representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between them, (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that representation of both sets of parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest between them, or (v) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed to actively pursue the defense of such Third Party Claim in good faith, (vi) the Third Party Claim is, in the discretion of the Indemnified Party (if Purchaser), subject to recovery under the R&W Insurance Policy or (vii) the Third Party Claim involves any Top Customer or Top Supplier.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not or is not entitled to assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 11.5(b), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense, and any costs and expenses associated with such defense (including reasonable attorney’s and accountant’s fees) shall be indemnifiable Losses hereunder, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. The parties shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with each other in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim, and the party that is in control of the defense of such claim pursuant to the terms hereof shall keep the other party reasonably informed of the progress and material developments of such defense. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall not be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided, that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall provide prompt written notice to the Indemnified Party of its intention to accept such offer an the terms thereof and (ii) such consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as: (A) such settlement or judgment does not involve any equitable relief or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts in such settlement or judgment and the settlement does not otherwise specify any liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates and (C) such settlement or judgment includes a complete and unconditional release of any Indemnified Party affected by such Third Party Claim.

11.6 Manner of Payment and Tax Treatment.

(a) Any indemnification payment to be made by Purchaser pursuant to this Article XI will be effected by the issuance by Purchaser to Seller (or to any Affiliate designated by Seller) of such number of Purchaser Common Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing the amount equal to such Losses by the Indemnification Reference Share Price, such issuance to be made within two (2) Business Days after such Losses have been determined, whether pursuant to a final judgment, settlement or agreement among the parties.

- 90 -

(b) Any indemnification payment to be made by Seller pursuant to this Article XI will be effected by Seller’s surrender to Purchaser of such number of Purchaser Common Shares equal to the quotient determined by dividing the amount equal to such Losses by the Indemnification Reference Share Price, such surrender to be made within two (2) Business Days after such Losses have been determined, whether pursuant to a final judgment, settlement or agreement among the parties.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, Seller, Purchaser, the Transferred Entities and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Article XI as an adjustment to the purchase price for all Tax purposes, and the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file their respective Tax Returns accordingly.

11.7 Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 10.3 and 12.11 and any claim against a Person based on Fraud in connection with the representations and warranties set forth in Article III, Article IV or Article V, as applicable, the parties hereby agree that, following the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of a party against any other party for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement shall be the applicable indemnification rights set forth in this Article XI. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities), or any Person claiming by, through or for the benefit of any of them, and each of their respective successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably waives any right of rescission it may otherwise have or to which it may become entitled.

12.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that no party to this Agreement may directly or indirectly assign any or all of its rights or delegate any or all of its obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of each other party to this Agreement, except that Seller may transfer or assign, in whole or from time to time in part, its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of Seller, but any such transfer or assignment will not relieve Seller of any of its obligations hereunder.

12.9 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended, except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought. Any party to this Agreement may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other party to this Agreement with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other party to this Agreement to be performed or complied with. The waiver by any party to this Agreement of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

12.10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

12.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of actual damages, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose, and irrevocably waives its right to object to, the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the other party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity or otherwise. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement. If, prior to the Outside Date or Extended Outside Date, as applicable, any party hereto brings any Action in accordance with Section 12.3 to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other party, the Outside Date or Extended Outside Date, as applicable shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such action.

12.12 No Admission. Nothing herein shall be deemed an admission by Purchaser, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, in any Action by or on behalf of a third party, that Purchaser, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, or that such third party or any of its Affiliates, is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any Contract.

12.13 Privilege.

(a) Conflicts of Interest. Purchaser hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities after the Closing), that, following the Closing, Xxxx, Weiss, Rifkind, Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP (“Seller Group’s Counsel”) may serve as counsel to the Seller Group and their Affiliates in connection with any matters related to the negotiation and documentation of this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Existing Representation”), including any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, the negotiation, performance or subject matter hereof or thereof, or the Sale or the Primary Issuance, notwithstanding Seller Group’s Counsel representation of the Transferred Entities prior to the Closing Date. Purchaser hereby agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities after the Closing), (i) to waive any claim they have or may have that Seller Group’s Counsel has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (ii) that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity), on the one hand, and the Seller Group or any of their Affiliates, on the other hand, Seller Group’s Counsel may represent the Seller Group and/or any of its Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity) and even though Seller Group’s Counsel may have represented any Transferred Entity in a matter substantially related to such dispute.

(b) Attorney-Client Privilege. Purchaser hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities after the Closing) that, as to all communications to or from Seller Group’s Counsel, on the one hand, and any or all of the Transferred Entities, the Seller Group or their Affiliates and their respective Representatives, on the other hand, that directly relate to the Existing Representation and to which the attorney-client privilege applies (the “Privileged Deal Communications”), the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs and will belong solely to the Seller Group and will not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser or its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity after the Closing). Absent the prior written consent of the Seller Group, none of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity after the Closing) may access the Privileged Deal Communications, and none of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any

- 95 -

Transferred Entity after the Closing) may use or rely upon the Privileged Deal Communications in any dispute against or involving the Seller Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity), on the one hand, and a third party other than (and not an Affiliate of) the Seller Group, on the other hand, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of the Privileged Deal Communications; provided, however, that such Transferred Entity may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser and its Affiliates (including any Transferred Entity) shall not be in breach of this Agreement as a result of inadvertent access to any Privileged Deal Communications. Purchaser acknowledges that it has consulted with independent counsel of its own choosing with respect to the meaning and effect of this Section 12.13. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any communications that occur prior to the Closing between or among Seller Group’s Counsel, on the one hand, and the Seller, the Transferred Entities and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, in furtherance of, or that constitute fraud, shall not be deemed Privileged Deal Communications. Seller Group’s Counsel is an express intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement for purposes of this Section 12.13, and may enforce the same. This Section 12.13 will survive the Closing and will remain in effect indefinitely.

(c) Other Materials. The Seller Group acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 12.13 relating to the Privileged Deal Communications, all other confidential and privileged information relating to the Transferred Entities belongs to the Transferred Entities and, following the Closing, the Purchaser shall have full rights with respect thereto.

12.14 Non-Recourse. Each party agrees, on behalf of itself and its Related Parties, that all Actions (whether in Contract or in tort, in law or in equity or otherwise, or granted by statute or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to: (a) this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and any other documents, certificates, instruments or other papers that are reasonably required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein (the “Additional Transaction Documents”), or any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder; (b) the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and any of the Additional Transaction Documents (including any representation or warranty made in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the Additional Transaction Documents); (c) any breach or violation of this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the Additional Transaction Documents; and (d) any failure of any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder to be consummated, in each case, may be made only against (and are those solely of) the Persons that are, in the case of this Agreement, expressly identified as parties to this Agreement (and their permitted assigns), and in the case of the Ancillary Agreements and the Additional Transaction Documents, Persons expressly identified as parties to such Ancillary Agreements or Additional Transaction Documents (and their permitted assigns) and in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, such Ancillary Agreements or such Additional Transaction Documents, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the Additional Transaction Documents to the contrary, each party agrees, on behalf of itself and its Related Parties, that no recourse under this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the Additional Transaction Documents or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder will be sought or had against any other Person (other than the Persons party to such agreements (and their permitted assigns)), including any Related Party (other than the Persons party to such agreements (and their permitted assigns)), and no other Person, including any Related Party, will have any Liability, for any claims, causes of action, Liabilities or Losses arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to the items in the immediately preceding clauses (a) through (d), it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal Liability whatsoever will attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any of the aforementioned, as such, arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to the items in the immediately preceding clauses (a) through (d), in each case, except for claims that Seller or Purchaser (or their respective Affiliates), as applicable, may assert (subject, with respect to the following clauses (ii) and (iii), in all respects to the limitations

set forth in Section 10.3 and this Section 12.14) (i) against any Person that is party to, and solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Confidentiality Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any Additional Transaction Document, or (ii) against Seller or Purchaser solely in accordance with, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser expressly reserves its right to pursue all available remedies against a Person who has committed Fraud in connection with the representations and warranties set forth in Article III and Article IV, and nothing in this Section 12.14 shall be construed to limit, waive or prevent any claim based on Fraud in connection with the representations and warranties set forth in Article III and Article IV against a Person who has committed such Fraud.

12.15 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile, pdf or other electronic method (including DocuSign) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
