(d) As set forth on Schedule 2.10(d), Seller shall provide Purchaser, as its contractor, with access to [***] for the provision of certain contracted services, pursuant to the terms and upon the conditions therein.

(e) The terms "commercially reasonable efforts" and "commercially reasonable best efforts" in this Section 2.10 shall not impose on Seller, or any of Seller's Affiliates, an obligation to [***].

Section 2.11 Shared Contracts.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.11, the Purchased Assets shall include those rights exclusively relating to the Facility or another Purchased Asset which arise from and after the Initial Closing under a Shared Contract, subject to the terms and conditions of such Shared Contract (such rights, the "Shared Contract Rights"), and the Assumed Liabilities shall include those Liabilities exclusively relating to the Facility or a Purchased Asset which arise from and after the Initial Closing under a Shared Contract, subject to the terms and conditions of such Shared Contract (such Liabilities, the "Shared Contract Liabilities"). All rights and Liabilities which arise under a Shared Contract other than the Shared Contract Rights and the Shared Contract Liabilities shall in all cases be included in the Excluded Assets and the Excluded Liabilities, as applicable. For purposes of determining the scope of the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities, the rights and Liabilities under each Shared Contract shall be equitably allocated among (a) the Facility and the Purchased Assets, on the one hand, and (b) the other business lines, facilities or other operations other than those solely related to the Facility and the Purchased Assets that will continue to be owned by Seller or its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, after the Initial Closing, on the other hand, in accordance with the following equitable allocation principles:

(i) any allocation set forth in the Shared Contract shall control;

(ii) if there is no allocation in the Shared Contract as described in clause (i) of this Section 2.11(a), then any allocation previously made by Seller or its Affiliates in the ordinary course of business shall control;

(iii) if there is no allocation as described in clause (ii) of this Section 2.11(a), then the quantifiable proportionate benefit to be received by Seller and Purchaser after the Initial Closing Date (to be determined by mutual good faith agreement of Seller and Purchaser) shall control; and

(iv) if not quantifiable as described in clause (iii) of this Section 2.11(a), then reasonable accommodation (to be determined by mutual good faith agreement of Seller and Purchaser) shall control.

(b) At the election of Seller and subject to any applicable consents or approvals, such allocation may be effectuated by termination of the Shared Contract in its entirety and the execution of new Contracts or by an assignment to and assumption by Purchaser of the Shared Contract Rights and the Shared Contract Liabilities under such Shared Contract. The completion of the documentation of any such termination and replacement or assignment is not a condition to the Initial Closing. As soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, Purchaser and Seller shall make appropriate requests to obtain, at the election of Seller, either consents or approvals from appropriate third parties to assignment and assumption by Purchaser of such Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities or reasonably comparable replacement or separated Contracts (each, a "Replacement Contract") that provide for the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities for the benefit of Purchaser and the Business with the remaining rights and Liabilities for the benefit of Seller and its Affiliates, and Purchaser and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consents, approvals or Replacement Contracts as expeditiously as possible. Any requests for such consents, approvals or Replacement Contracts shall include a request that Seller and its Affiliates be unconditionally released from all Liabilities relating to the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities attributable to the period after the Initial Closing, and Purchaser and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such releases. [***].

(c) Purchaser and Seller agree that obtaining the consents, approvals or Replacement Contracts for the Shared Contracts is not a condition to the Initial Closing. In the event that a consents, approvals or Replacement Contract for a Shared Contract is not obtained by the Initial Closing and the Initial Closing occurs, Seller, in its sole discretion, may either assign the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities arising under such Shared Contract to Purchaser notwithstanding the absence

of a consents, approvals therefor or use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Purchaser in effecting a commercially reasonable arrangement permitted by Law and not inconsistent with such Shared Contract under which Purchaser shall receive benefits under the Shared Contract corresponding to the Shared Contract Rights from and after the Initial Closing, and, to the extent of the benefits received, Purchaser shall pay and perform Seller's and its Affiliates' Liabilities arising under the Shared Contract corresponding to the Shared Contract Liabilities from and after the Initial Closing in accordance with its terms; provided that Seller and its Affiliates shall not be liable or have any further responsibility to Purchaser for the failure of such consents, approvals or Replacement Contracts to be obtained, and, in connection with any such assignment or arrangement, Seller and its Affiliates shall not be responsible for any Liabilities relating to such assignment or arrangement or the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any Losses arising out of or related to any such Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any amount under any Shared Contract was prepaid by Seller prior to the Initial Closing and Purchaser will receive a Shared Contract Right with respect to such Shared Contract after the Initial Closing, then the Cash Consideration to be paid at the Initial Closing shall be increased by such prepaid amounts

(b) by either Party, provided such Party is not then in breach of any of its respective obligations hereunder, by giving written notice of such termination to the other Party if: (i) there has been

a material misrepresentation or material breach by the other Party of a representation or warranty contained herein, such that the conditions in Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.3(b), as applicable, will not be satisfied, and such material misrepresentation or material breach is incapable of being cured or is not cured [***] after written notice thereof from such Party detailing the nature of such misrepresentation or breach or (ii) the other Party has committed a material breach of any covenant imposed upon it hereunder, such that the conditions in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.3(a), as applicable, will not be satisfied, and fails to cure such breach [***] after written notice thereof from such Party detailing the nature of such breach or such breach is incapable of being cured; provided, however, that the cure periods described above shall not apply to a breach of either Party's obligation to effect the Initial Closing in accordance with Article III; and

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.1 Survival. All of the representations and warranties of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall be extinguished and be of no further force and effect on the date that is [***] following the Initial Closing Date; provided, that all of the Fundamental Reps shall remain in full force and effect and shall survive until the earlier of (a) [***] days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (taking into account all waivers and extensions thereof) and (b) the [***] anniversary of the Initial Closing Date. All of the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement that by their nature are required to be performed after the Initial Closing shall survive the Initial Closing until fully performed or fulfilled. The date of expiration of a claim for indemnification under this Agreement is referred to herein as such claim's "Expiration Date."

Section 9.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Xxxxxx agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Affiliates and, if applicable, their respective directors, officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns (a "Purchaser Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all fees, Actions, judgments, Taxes, awards and Liabilities, including reasonable out-of-pocket documented attorneys' fees (collectively, the "Losses") to the extent arising from or relating to:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement;

(b) any failure of Seller to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; or

Section 9.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Xxxxxxxxx agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and, if applicable, their respective directors, officers, agents, employees, successors and assigns (a "Seller Indemnified Party"), from and against any and all Losses to the extent arising from or relating to:

(a) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement or the Asset Assignment Agreement;

(b) any failure of each of Purchaser or TopCo to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or the Asset Assignment Agreement; or

Section 9.4 Certain Limitations.

(a) No claim for Losses shall be made under Section 9.2(a) or under Section 9.3(a) unless the aggregate amount of Losses exceeds [***] for which claims are made hereunder by the Indemnified Party (the "Basket"), in which case the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek compensation for Losses in excess of the Basket, but only up to a maximum aggregate amount of [***] (the "Indemnification Cap"); provided, however, that the foregoing Basket and Indemnification Cap shall not apply to Losses resulting from (i) Seller's Fraud or (ii) any breach of any Fundamental Rep made by Seller; provided, further, that aggregate indemnification obligations of the Indemnified Party for all Losses resulting from any breach of any Fundamental Rep shall not exceed an amount equal to [***] (the "[***]"). Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, with respect to any claim as to which the Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.2(a) or under Section 9.3(a), (x) no Party shall be liable for any Loss resulting from or relating to any inaccuracy in or breach of any

representation or warranty if the Party seeking indemnification for such Loss had knowledge of such breach or the underlying facts of such breach before the Initial Closing and (y) the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any individual or series of related Losses which do not exceed [***] (the "De Minimis Amount") (which Losses shall not be counted toward the Basket); provided, however, that such de minimis limitation shall not apply with respect to Fraud. The aggregate indemnification obligations of the Indemnified Party for claims made under Section 9.2(b) or Section 9.3(b) shall not exceed the [***] . For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Basket, Indemnification Cap, [***] or De Minimis Amount limitations shall apply with respect to any Losses under Section 9.2(c) or Section 9.3(d).

(b) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 shall be net of (i) any amounts actually received by the Indemnified Party pursuant to any indemnification by or indemnification agreement with any third party in respect of such Loss and (ii) any insurance proceeds actually received in respect of such Loss as an offset against such Loss. If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 is determined after payment by the Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article IX had such determination been made at the time of such payment.

(c) Indemnified Party shall take, and shall cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate Losses, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach.

(d) All payments made pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated for Tax purposes as an adjustment to the purchase price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 9.5 Indemnification Claims.

(a) To cover Losses under the indemnification obligations of Seller under Section 9.2 and of Purchaser under Section 9.3, any of the Persons seeking to be indemnified under this Article IX (the "Indemnified Party") must deliver to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") on or before the applicable Expiration Date a certificate signed by an officer of the Indemnified Party (an "Indemnification Notice") stating the basis of a claim pursuant to this Article IX, and specifying in reasonable detail the individual items of such Losses included in the amount so stated, the amount or estimated amount thereof (if known or reasonably capable of estimation), the method of calculation for such Losses, and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, covenant or claim to which such item is related.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of [***] from and after delivery of any Indemnification Notice to deliver to the Indemnified Party a response, in which the Indemnifying Party shall: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the requested Losses, or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive the requested Losses.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not deliver a response before the expiration of the [***] period referred to in Section 9.5(b) disputing any claim or claims made in the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnified Party shall, subject to the provisions of this Article IX, be entitled to recover such Losses.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party disputes any claim or claims made in any Indemnification Notice, the Indemnified Party shall [***] to respond in a written statement to the objection of the Indemnifying Party. If after such [***] period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Parties shall attempt in good faith for [***] to agree upon the rights of the Parties with respect to each of such claims (the "Claim Period").

(e) If no agreement can be reached after good faith negotiation between the Parties during the Claims Period pursuant to Section 9.5(d), either Party may initiate formal legal action with the applicable court in accordance with Section 10.9 to resolve such dispute. The decision of the court as to

the validity and amount of any claim in such Indemnification Notice shall be binding and conclusive upon the Parties.

Section 9.6 Third-Party Claims.

(a) If any claim, Action, suit or proceeding (in equity or at law) is instituted by a third party with respect to which the Indemnified Party intends to claim any Loss under this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify (the "Third-Party Claim Notice") the Indemnifying Party of such claim, Action, suit or proceeding. A failure by the Indemnified Party to give notice of any claim, Action, suit or proceeding in a timely manner pursuant to this Section 9.4(d) shall not limit the obligation of the Indemnifying Party under this Article IX, except (a) to the extent such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby or (b) as provided in Section 9.1.

(b) The Indemnifying Party under this Article IX shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within [***] of receipt of a Third-Party Claim Notice from the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, to assume the conduct and control, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party and through counsel of its choosing that is reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, any third-party claim, Action, suit or proceeding (a "Third-Party Claim"), except as provided in this Section 9.6(b) and the Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle the same; provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party advance written notice of any proposed compromise or settlement and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to or enter into any compromise or settlement that commits the Indemnified Party, to take, or to forbear to take, any action or does not provide for a full and complete written release by the applicable third party of the Indemnified Party. No Indemnified Party may compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No Indemnifying Party may consent to the entry of any judgment that does not relate solely to monetary damages arising from any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in, but not control, the defense of any such Third-Party Claim through counsel chosen by the Indemnified Party; provided, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to control or conduct the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party nevertheless shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim and, at its own expense, to employ counsel of its own choosing for such purpose.

(c) The Parties shall cooperate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim, with such cooperation to include (i) the retention and the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim and (ii) reasonable access to employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Section 9.7 Sole Remedy. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, each Party acknowledges and agrees that the remedies provided for in this Article IX shall be its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action (including rights of contributions, if any) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that it may have against Seller or any of its Affiliates, or Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any applicable Law and related to the subject matter of this Agreement, except that nothing herein shall limit the liability of either Party for Fraud. Each Party agrees that the previous sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect any (i) non-monetary right or remedy which either Party may have under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or otherwise limit or affect either Party's right to seek equitable relief, including the remedy of specific performance or (ii) any and all remedies available to a Party at law or equity in the case of any fraudulent conduct or willful misrepresentation by Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives.

Section 9.8 Indemnity Payments.

(a) Any and all amounts payable by Seller in its capacity as an Indemnifying Party to a Purchaser Indemnified Party shall first be satisfied by setting off and applying any and all amounts finally determined as payable by the Seller in its capacity as an Indemnifying Party against any remaining amount of Deferred Consideration that has not been paid and then by payment in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified in writing by the Purchaser Indemnified Party.

(b) Any and all amounts payable by Purchaser in its capacity as an Indemnifying Party to a Seller Indemnified Party shall be paid promptly in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified in writing by the Seller Indemnified Party.

(c) With respect to any claim brought by an Indemnified Party under this Agreement, each of the Parties expressly waives any right of subrogation, contribution, advancement, indemnification or other claim against the other Party with respect to any amounts owed by such other Party pursuant to this Article IX.

Section 9.9 EXCEPTIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIABLE TO OR OTHERWISE RESPONSIBLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE OTHER PARTY FOR [***] THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT; PROVIDED, THAT THIS SECTION 9.9 SHALL NOT SERVE AS A LIMITATION ON ANY INDEMNIFYING PARTY'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS FOR ANY LOSSES ACTUALLY PAID TO A THIRD PARTY THAT SUCH INDEMNIFYING PARTY WOULD OTHERWISE BE LIABLE FOR HEREUNDER.

This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 10.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Ancillary Agreements, Annexes, Exhibits and Schedules (including the Seller Disclosure Schedules), contains the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, but excluding the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect for the term provided for therein.

Section 10.5 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than Purchaser, Seller or their successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.6 Public Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Party hereby agrees with the other Party that no press release or similar public announcement or communication shall, at any time, be made by it or caused to be made by it concerning the execution or performance of this Agreement unless it shall have consulted the other Party in advance with respect thereto and such

other Party consents in writing to such release, announcement or communication; provided, however, the provisions of this Section 10.6 shall not prohibit (i) any disclosure required to comply with the requirements of any applicable Laws or the rules and regulations of each stock exchange upon which the securities of such Party are listed, if any (in which case such Party shall notify the other Party promptly and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other Party with a copy of the contemplated disclosure prior to submission or release, as the case may be) and (ii) any disclosure made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, Purchaser shall have a right to disclose the existence of this Agreement and a general description of the Purchased Assets, provided that such description shall not disclose the Cash Consideration or similar pricing information.

Section 10.7 Confidentiality; Equitable Relief.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that Seller and Purchaser have previously executed that certain Confidentiality Disclosure Agreement, dated January, 2023, as amended as of June 17, 2023, (as amended, restated and modified from time to time, the "Confidentiality Agreement"). After the Initial Closing, Seller shall each keep confidential, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives to keep confidential, all Confidential Information relating to the Facility, Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities, except (A) as required by Law, (B) as necessary to arbitrate, defend or prosecute any indemnification claim or any Litigation or dispute or (C) for information that is available to the public on the Initial Closing Date, or thereafter becomes available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.7(a), or is furnished to Purchaser after the Initial Closing by a third party that, to the knowledge of Purchaser, is under no obligation of confidentiality to the other Party with respect to such information.

(b) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each Party hereby waives any requirement that the other Party post a bond or other security as a condition for obtaining any such relief. Each Party hereby waives any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at Law would be adequate.

Section 10.9 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution.

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement, including all issues and questions concerning the application, construction, validity, interpretation, and enforceability of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.

(b) Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, controversy, difference, or claim arising out of, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity, or termination, the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to it, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution ("ICDR") in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of the arbitration, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause, except as they be modified herein. The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be New York, New York, United States of America. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators. The tribunal shall award to the prevailing party its costs and expenses of the arbitration, including its reasonable legal fees and other costs of legal representation, fees paid to the arbitrators, and any administrative fees paid to the ICDR, as determined by the tribunal. Judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction of the award or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets. The parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential. The existence of the arbitration, any non-public information provided in the arbitration, and any submissions, orders, or awards made in the arbitration (together, the "Arbitration Confidential Information") shall not be disclosed to any non-party except the tribunal, the ICDR, the

parties, their counsel, experts, witnesses, accountants, and auditors, potential third-party funders, and any other person necessary to the conduct of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose Arbitration Confidential Information to the extent required to protect or pursue a legal right or interest of the party in legal proceedings before a court or other authority, or enforce or challenge an award in bona fide legal proceedings.

Notwithstanding Section 10.9(a), the arbitration and this agreement to arbitrate shall be governed by Title 9 (Arbitration) of the United States Code.

Section 10.10 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained herein is intended or is to be construed so as to constitute Purchaser and Seller as partners, agents or joint venturers. Neither Party shall have any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations on behalf of or in the name of the other Party or to bind the other Party to any contract, agreement or undertaking with any third party. The Parties (and any successor, assignee, transferee, or Affiliate of a Party) shall not treat or report the relationship between the Parties arising under this Agreement as a partnership for United States Tax purposes, without the prior written consent of the other Party unless required by a final "determination" as defined in Section 1313 of the Code.

Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, and by the Parties hereto 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 e-mail of a .pdf attachment shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.12 Headings. The heading references herein and the table of contents hereto are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect the meaning or interpretation any of the provisions hereof.

Section 10.13 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any term or other provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.14 Acknowledgement. Each of Purchaser and TopCo agrees that it has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the business, assets (including the Purchased Assets and the Facility), liabilities (including the Assumed Liabilities), condition, and operations of Seller. In entering into this Agreement, each of Purchaser and TopCo has relied solely upon its own investigation and analysis and the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in Article IV (as modified by the Seller Disclosure Schedules) or in the certificate delivered by Seller to Purchaser and TopCo pursuant to Section 7.2(c) (the "Seller Certificate"), and each of Purchaser and TopCo acknowledges and agrees that, except for the representations and warranties of Seller expressly set forth in Article IV (as modified by Seller Disclosure Schedules) or in the Seller Certificate, neither Seller nor any of its Representatives nor any other Person acting on Seller's behalf makes or has made, and each of Purchaser and TopCo is not relying on and has not relied on, any representation or warranty of any kind, nature or description, express or implied, including any warranty of title, merchantability or fitness of any Purchased Assets for a particular purpose or with respect to the future operational performance of the Facility or Purchased Assets, or with respect to Seller, its business or the Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Purchaser and TopCo acknowledges and agrees that neither Seller nor any its Representatives or any other Person has made, and each of Purchaser and TopCo is not relying on and has not relied on, any representation or warranty with respect to (a) any projections, estimates or budgets for Seller, the Purchased Assets or the Facility, or (b) any materials, documents or information relating to Seller or its business made available to Purchaser or TopCo or any of their respective Representatives in any "data room," online data site, confidential memorandum, other offering materials or otherwise,
