2.1.2 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Section 2.1), neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall acquire, pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the Excluded Assets, and the Purchased Assets shall not include, and Seller and its Affiliates shall retain following the Closing Date, the Excluded Assets.

2.1.3 Acknowledgment. Subject to Section 5.3, Seller and its Affiliates shall have the right, on behalf of themselves and their licensees, sublicensees, licensors, sublicensors, Manufacturers and distributors, to (a) retain copies of the documents, materials and data relating to the conduct of the Product Business prior to the Closing Date, in each case, as shall be reasonably required to enable them to complete their legal, regulatory, stock exchange, Tax and financial reporting requirements or defend or manage Excluded Liabilities, including in respect of Litigation and insurance matters, and (b) prior to delivering or making available any Purchased Product Records or Purchased Regulatory Documentation to Buyer in accordance with Section 2.1.1 and Section 2.5, redact from such Purchased Product Records or Purchased Regulatory Documentation any information solely to the extent that (i) such information does not relate to the Product Business, (ii) such information relates to any product or product candidate other than the Products or (iii) such information constitutes any Excluded Communications.

2.1.4 Retention of Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Seller retains, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, licensees, sublicensees, licensors, sublicensors, Manufacturers and distributors, such rights in and to the Purchased Assets, including a right of reference to the Purchased Regulatory Documentation, and Buyer hereby grants to Seller and its Affiliates, effective from and after the Closing Date, a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free and non-transferable license and right of reference (with a right to grant sublicenses and further rights of reference through multiple tiers) under the Purchased Assets and the Buyer Marketing Authorizations and Documentation, including a right of reference to the Purchased Regulatory Documentation and the Buyer

Marketing Authorizations and Documentation, in each case, solely to the extent necessary or useful to perform, and solely for the purpose of performing, its or its Affiliates’ respective obligations to Buyer and its Affiliates under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. Nothing in this Section 2.1.4 shall prohibit Buyer or any of its Affiliates from exercising any contractual remedies available to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement as a result of any breach hereof or thereof by Seller of any of its Affiliates, including in connection with any breach of Sections 5.3 and 5.4.

2.1.5 Purchased Marketing Authorizations Withdrawals. To the extent that the Marketing Authorization Transfer Plan includes a list of each Purchased Marketing Authorization (if any) that Buyer desires Seller or its applicable Affiliate to terminate or withdraw (and not otherwise transfer to Buyer or any of its Affiliates), Seller and its Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly, terminate, withdraw, cancel or allow to lapse each Purchased Marketing Authorization identified in such list in accordance with Section 5.8.

2.2 Consents to Certain Assignments; Shared Contracts.

2.2.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, this Agreement shall not, nor shall any Ancillary Agreement, constitute an agreement to sell, transfer, convey, assign or deliver, directly or indirectly, any Purchased Asset (including any Contract), or any right or benefit arising thereunder, if an attempted direct or indirect sale, transfer, assignment or delivery thereof, without the Consent of a Third Party (including a Governmental Authority), would constitute a breach, default, violation or other contravention of the rights of such Third Party, would be ineffective with respect to any party to a Contract concerning such Purchased Asset or would in any way adversely affect the rights of Seller or its Affiliates or, upon transfer, Buyer or its Affiliates, under such Purchased Asset. Buyer agrees that none of Seller or any of its Affiliates shall have any liability whatsoever to Buyer arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such Consent, and no representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein shall be breached or deemed breached, and no condition shall be deemed not satisfied, as a result of such failure or any Litigation or investigation commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such Consent.

2.2.2 If any such Consent is not obtained prior to the Closing, subject to satisfaction of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article 7, the Closing shall nonetheless take place on the terms set forth herein and, thereafter, prior to such Consent being obtained and for a period of up to nine months following the Closing Date, (a) Buyer and Seller shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to secure such Consent as promptly as practicable after the Closing (which efforts shall not require the payment of any money or other consideration), and (b) Seller and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith (with each Party being responsible for its own out-of-pocket expenses) in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement reasonably acceptable to Buyer and Seller under which (i) Buyer shall obtain the economic rights and benefits (net of the amount of any incremental related Tax costs imposed on Seller or its Affiliates) under the Purchased Asset with respect to which the Consent has not been obtained (other than with respect to the Takeda Agreement and the agreements ancillary thereto referred to in the Prior Acquisition Assignment Agreement, which shall be subject to the Prior

Acquisition Assignment Agreement (as applicable)) and (ii) Buyer shall assume any related economic liability or burden (including the amount of any incremental related Tax costs imposed on Seller or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Purchased Asset (any such arrangement, an “Alternative Arrangement”). Following the Closing, until such Consent is obtained, Buyer will, and will cause each of its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Seller and its Affiliates to enable them to comply with the terms of any Contract that would have constituted a Purchased Asset except for the failure to receive a required Consent to such transfer or assignment.

2.2.3 Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, prior to the Closing and for a period of no longer than six months following the Closing (unless otherwise agreed under the Transition Agreement), to cause each Contract set forth on Schedule 2.2.3, as such Schedule may be updated by Seller not less than three Business Days prior to Closing to include any Contracts that are material to, but not exclusively used in, the Product Business and that are entered into by Seller or any of its Affiliates after the date of this Agreement (other than those Contracts described in clause (b) and clause (c) of the definition of Excluded Contracts) to the extent Buyer does not object to such updates, in its reasonable discretion (each such Contract, a “Shared Contract”) to be appropriately amended and new Contracts entered into prior to, on or after the Closing Date so that Buyer shall be entitled to the economic rights and benefits, and shall be responsible for any related economic burden, relating to the Product Business thereunder and Seller or its applicable Affiliate shall be entitled to the economic rights and benefits, and shall be responsible for any related economic burden, relating to the balance of the subject matter of such Shared Contract. Seller shall consult with Buyer with respect to the amendment of such Shared Contracts and the negotiation of such new Contracts and, with respect to any amended Shared Contract or new Contract to be assigned to or executed by Buyer, shall give Buyer the ability to comment thereon and shall give due consideration to any reasonable comments provided by Buyer. If any such Shared Contract cannot be so amended (and new Contracts cannot be entered into) within such period, or if either of the foregoing would impair the benefits that either Buyer or Seller would expect to derive from such amended Shared Contract, then the parties shall cooperate with each other to obtain for Buyer an arrangement to provide Buyer with the benefits of such Shared Contract in some other manner, including Seller’s entering into such lawful arrangements with Buyer to place Buyer in substantially the same economic and Liability position as if such amendments and new Contracts were entered into in accordance with the foregoing. The obligations of Seller pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 shall not extend beyond the remaining term of the applicable Shared Contract as of the Closing Date.

2.2.4 Nothing in this Section 2.2 shall require Seller or its Affiliates to make any payment (except to the extent advanced, assumed or agreed in advance to be reimbursed by Xxxxx), incur any obligation or grant any concession in order to effect any transaction contemplated by this Section 2.2. This Section 2.2 shall not apply to the Transfer of any Purchased Marketing Authorization, as to which Section 5.8 shall control.

2.3 Liabilities.

2.3.1 Assumed Liabilities. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller or its applicable Affiliates shall assign and Buyer or its applicable Affiliates shall assume and agree to pay, perform and discharge when due all Liabilities of Seller and its Affiliates (a) arising out of, relating to or otherwise in respect of the Purchased Assets or the Product Business (other than Taxes and except as otherwise provided in, or with respect to any claims arising under, any Ancillary Agreement) in respect of the period after the Closing Date; (b) for Product Liability Claims (other than Seller Product Liability Claims or other Excluded Liabilities) arising out of the Manufacture, use, distribution or sale any unit of Product in the Territory prior to, on or after the Closing; (c) (i) to suppliers for materials and services relating to the Purchased Assets to be delivered or provided after the Closing, (ii) to customers for units of Product that have not been shipped as of the Closing and (iii) for accounts payable arising or occurring after the Closing Date with respect to the Product Business; (d) for any recalls or market withdrawals in respect of any Product sold in the Territory (except (i) to the extent initiated by Seller or any of its Affiliates at or prior to the Closing to the extent permitted by this Agreement or (ii) otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement); (e) under any Purchased Contract, including, for clarity, each of the Prior Acquisition Agreements and the Manufacturing Contracts (subject to Section 8.1.1(c)); (f) under any Contract set forth on Schedule 2.2.3; (g) (i) for any Taxes arising as a result of any Buyer Tax Act, (ii) for any Transfer Taxes allocated to Buyer pursuant to Section 5.13.1 and (iii) for any Taxes in respect of the Product Business or the Purchased Assets for any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date (other than any Taxes imposed with respect to the Later Purchased Inventory and Manufacturing Contracts for any taxable period (or portion thereof) ending prior to the time of sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery of such assets pursuant to Section 2.9.1(c), Section 2.9.2(b) and Section 2.9.3 of the Transition Agreement), in each case, other than Taxes that are Excluded Liabilities; (h) for (A) any royalties payable pursuant to Section 2.15 of the Takeda Agreement in respect of the period after the Closing Date, (B) any milestone payments payable pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Takeda Agreement and (C) any “Transaction Payment” triggered on the basis of a “Product Transfer” occurring after the Closing Date (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Transaction Payment triggered by the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement); and (i) assumed by Buyer pursuant to Article 6 ((a) through (i), collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”); provided, however, that (x) Liabilities for Payment Claims shall be allocated between the Parties (or their respective Affiliates) as set forth in the Commercial Agreement and shall not be Assumed Liabilities and (y) solely with respect to the Later Purchased Inventory and the Manufacturing Contracts included in the Purchased Assets, the references in this Section 2.3.1 to the Closing or the Closing Date shall be deemed to refer to the time and date, as applicable, of the sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery of such assets pursuant to Section 2.9.1(c), Section 2.9.2(b) and Section 2.9.3 of the Transition Agreement, as applicable.

2.3.2 Excluded Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall assume any Excluded Liabilities.

2.4 Consideration. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in consideration of the conveyances contemplated under Section 2.1 and the covenant not to sue granted to Buyer pursuant to Section 5.15.1, Buyer shall (a) pay to Seller on the Closing Date the Closing Consideration, (b) pay to Seller, upon achievement of any Milestone Event, the corresponding Milestone Payment in accordance with Schedule 1.1(f) and (c) assume the Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.3.

Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, will promptly provide each other with copies of all substantive correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their Representatives or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions; provided, however, that such materials may be redacted (x) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Products, the Product Business, Purchased Assets or the Purchased Subsidiary, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (z) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns, to the extent that such attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns are not governed by a common interest privilege or doctrine.

4.3.6 Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire or license (or agree to acquire or license) any assets, property or securities if, individually or in the aggregate, such acquisition, acquisitions, license or licenses would reasonably be expected to make it more difficult, or to materially increase the time required, to: (a) obtain the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, or approval under any Antitrust Law, applicable to the Transactions; (b) avoid the entry of, or the commencement of litigation seeking the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other Order that would materially delay or prevent the consummation of the Transactions; or (c) obtain all Consents of, or registrations, declarations or filings of Governmental Authorities necessary for the consummation of the Transactions.

4.4 Notices. During the Pre-Closing Period, each Party shall promptly, after any of its officers obtains actual knowledge of such matter, notify the other Party of the occurrence of any event or condition or the existence of any fact that may reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions to the obligations of the other Party to consummate the Transactions set forth in Article 7 not to be satisfied, or any written notice or other written communication received by such from a Governmental Authority or from any Person indicating that the Transactions may require such Person’s Consent; provided, however, that an unintentional failure to give notice under this Section 4.4 shall not be deemed to be a breach of covenant under this Section 4.4 and shall constitute only a breach of any underlying representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation, as the case may be, that resulted in the need to provide such notice.

4.5 Intercompany Accounts. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller and its applicable Affiliates shall take all action necessary so that all intercompany accounts relating to corporate, rather than commercial, relationships or services as of the Closing Date between Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Purchased Subsidiary), on the one hand, and the Purchased Subsidiary, on the other hand, shall be settled in full or, at the option of Seller, but only to the extent permitted by Law, cancelled, and any Contracts or other arrangements to the extent relating to the foregoing, together with any Affiliate Contracts (except as expressly permitted by this Agreement), shall be terminated, in each case, on or prior to the Closing.

Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect

The obligations of Seller and its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 5.3.1 shall not extend to any Confidential Information, that is (x) required to be disclosed by applicable Law, or (y) except as a result of a disclosure by Seller or its Affiliates after the Closing in breach of this Agreement, generally available to the public or already known by a Third Party receiving such information from Seller or its Affiliates.

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the development, commercialization, Manufacture, marketing, distribution, sale or other Exploitation activities relating to any of the businesses (other than the Product Business) or products or product candidates (other than Products) that are owned or controlled or, in the case of products, sold, in production or contemplated to be in production or sold, in each case, by Seller or any of its Affiliates as of the Closing Date (in each case, including any extensions or evolutions thereof) and (y) the ownership of any interest in any businesses (other than the Product Business) or products or product candidates (other than the Products) (in each case, including any extensions or evolutions thereof) by Seller or any of its Affiliates as of the Closing Date, in each case ((x) and (y)), shall not be considered a Competing Business, and the restrictions in this Section 5.4 shall not apply with respect to any of the foregoing activities; provided, further, that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.4 shall not apply to Sandoz to any extent (provided that the foregoing exceptions with respect to Sandoz shall not, in any way, limit the obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 5.3). This Section 5.4 shall cease to be applicable to any Person at such time as it is no longer an Affiliate of Seller and shall not apply to any Person that purchases assets, operations or a business from Seller or one of its Affiliates, if such Person is not an Affiliate of Seller after such transaction is consummated.

5.4.2 Seller acknowledges that: (a) its obligations under this Section 5.4 are reasonable in the context of the nature of the Product Business and the competitive injuries likely to be sustained by the Product Business and Buyer if Seller or any of its Affiliates were to violate such obligations; (b) the covenants in this Section 5.4 are adequately supported by consideration from Buyer for the benefit of Seller; and (c) the foregoing makes it necessary for the protection of the Product Business and Buyer that Seller uphold its obligations under this Section 5.4 for the reasonable time period contained herein. If any provision in this Section 5.4 shall for any reason

be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 5.4, but this Section 5.4 shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. It is the intention of the parties hereto that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 5.4 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

The filing Party shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments timely provided by the non-filing Party.

In the case of the receipt by Buyer of any payment from any obligor of both Seller or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or its Affiliates, on the other hand, then, unless otherwise specified by such obligor, such payment shall be applied first to amounts owed to Buyer or its Affiliates with the excess, if any, remitted to Seller or its Affiliates.

Buyer shall provide to Seller any comments at least 10 days (or, with respect to non-income Tax Returns, such shorter time as may be reasonable taking into account the type of such Tax Return) prior to the due date for filing such Seller Separate Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions) and Seller shall consider such comments in good faith. Seller shall provide a final copy of such Seller Separate Tax Return reflecting Xxxxx’s comments with which Seller agrees not less than two days prior to the due date for filing such Seller Separate Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions) along with payment by Seller of the amount of any Taxes shown thereon as due, and the Purchased Subsidiary shall file, or cause to be filed, such Seller Separate Tax Return in a timely manner and timely remit such Taxes.

(b) Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns of the Purchased Subsidiary for any Straddle Tax Period (each, a “Buyer Separate Tax Return”). For this purpose, Buyer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, any such Buyer Separate Tax Return in a manner consistent with the Purchased Subsidiary’s past practice, unless otherwise required by applicable Law or this Agreement, and shall furnish each such Buyer Separate Tax Return to Seller at least 20 days (or, with respect to non-income Tax Returns, such shorter time as may be reasonable taking into account the type of such Tax Return) prior to the due date for filing such Buyer Separate Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions) for Seller’s review and comment.

5.13.3 Assistance and Cooperation. Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate fully, including with respect to the provision of documentation and information, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with (a) the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, (b) determining a Liability or indemnity obligation for Taxes, a right to refund of Taxes or other Tax benefits and (c) conducting any Tax Proceeding or other claim or proceeding with respect to Taxes, in each case, relating to the Purchased Subsidiary, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

5.13.4 Tax Contests.

(a) After the Closing, each of Buyer and Seller shall promptly notify the other in writing of any proposed assessment or the commencement of a Tax Proceeding or of any demand or claim with respect to Taxes, of which such Party has been informed in writing by any Taxing Authority, which would reasonably be expected to serve as a basis for a claim for indemnification under Article 8. Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known to Seller or Buyer, as applicable) describing the asserted Liability for Taxes in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such asserted Liability for Taxes; provided, that failure to so notify Seller or Buyer, as applicable, shall not relieve any Party of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent such Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) In the case of a Tax Proceeding with respect to the Purchased Subsidiary that relates to a taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date (a “Seller Tax Contest”), Seller shall control, at its sole expense, the conduct of such Seller Tax Contest; provided, that, subject to Section 5.13.4(d), (i) Seller shall provide Buyer with a timely and reasonably detailed account of all material developments in such Tax Proceeding and (ii) to the extent such Seller Tax Contest could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Subsidiary) for a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date, Seller shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) In the case of a Tax Proceeding with respect to the Purchased Subsidiary that relates to a Straddle Tax Period (a “Buyer Tax Contest”), Buyer shall have the right to control, at its sole expense, the conduct of such Buyer Tax Contest; provided, that, subject to Section 5.13.4(d), with respect to any such Buyer Tax Contest that would reasonably be expected to give rise to an indemnification obligation of Seller pursuant to Article 8, Buyer shall (i) provide Seller with a timely and reasonably detailed account of all material developments in such Tax Proceeding and (ii) not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

5.13.5 Tax Refunds. Seller shall be entitled to any refunds of Taxes in respect of Excluded Taxes that are received by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Subsidiary after the Closing), including such refunds received by way of any credits that become available against the Tax liability of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Subsidiary after the Closing). Buyer shall pay over to Seller any such refund or the amount of any such credit, net of any expenses or Taxes incurred by Buyer or any of its Affiliates reasonably attributable to such refund or credit, within 15 days after receipt of such refund or, in the case of a credit, no later than 15 days following the filing of the applicable Tax Return where such credit is used to actually reduce Taxes otherwise payable. If any refund or credit paid over to Seller is subsequently disallowed, Seller shall promptly repay to Buyer or its Affiliate, as applicable, the amount of such disallowed refund or credit, together with any interest and penalties that are payable to the applicable Taxing Authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 8.3.6 shall apply with respect to any payment under this Section 5.13.5.

Thereafter, the Party holding such records may dispose of them after offering the other Party reasonable notice and opportunity to take possession of such records at such other Party’s own expense.

5.13.7 Tax Sharing Agreements. To the extent relating to the Purchased Subsidiary, Seller shall terminate or cause to be terminated, on or before the Closing Date, all Tax sharing agreements or arrangements (other than this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement), if any, to which the Purchased Subsidiary, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Purchased Subsidiary), on the other hand, are parties, and none of Seller, any of its Affiliates, the Purchased Subsidiary or any of its Affiliates shall have any rights or obligations thereunder after the Closing.

5.13.8 Purchase Price Allocation. For income tax purposes, Buyer and Seller shall prior to the Closing Date mutually agree on an allocation of the Purchase Price and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for income tax purposes (the “Allocation”) between the Purchased Assets, on the one hand, and the Purchased Shares, on the other hand, which allocation shall be in accordance with Schedule 5.13.8 attached hereto. The Allocation shall be adjusted, as necessary, to reflect any subsequent payments treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price or such other items. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar or corresponding provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law), each of Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Allocation and shall not take, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to take, any position inconsistent with the Allocation on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Proceeding or otherwise.

Parties may agree) following written notice from Seller of such material breach; provided that such period will extend for an additional 30 days if Buyer can reasonably show that it is continuing to make substantial, good faith efforts to cure such material breach.

During the Applicable Transition Period, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, use the Retained Names and Marks in a manner that damages or tarnishes or is reasonably likely to damage or tarnish the reputation of Seller or its Affiliates (or its or their licensors, as applicable) or the goodwill associated with the Retained Names and Marks, or take any action that may adversely affect Seller’s or its Affiliates’ (or its or their licensor(s)’) rights in any of the Retained Names and Marks or the validity, enforceability or distinctiveness of any of the Retained Names and Marks or any registrations or applications therefor.

5.15.3 Responsibility for Use of Retained Names and Marks.

Seller may grant sublicenses under the foregoing license, solely within the scope of such license, to Seller’s

Affiliates (only for so long as such Affiliate remains an Affiliate of Seller) and to its and their distributors, manufacturers and service providers, in each case, solely to the extent acting in their capacity as such. Nothing in this Section 5.16.1 shall prohibit Buyer or any of its Affiliates from exercising any remedies available to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement as a result of any breach hereof or thereof by Seller of any of its Affiliates, including in connection with any breach of Sections 5.3 and 5.4.

5.16.2 Effective as of the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, shall grant and hereby does grant to Buyer a non-exclusive, sublicensable (only in accordance with this Section 5.16.2), royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable worldwide license under the Non-Exclusive IPR (other than Non-Exclusive IPR that constitutes Purchased Intellectual Property) solely for the purpose of Exploiting any Products (including any improvements, Generic or Authorized Generic versions thereof).

For clarity, nothing in this Section 5.16.2 shall prohibit Seller from exercising any remedies available to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement as a result of any breach hereof or thereof by Buyer of any of its Affiliates, including in connection with any breach of Sections 5.3 and 5.4.

5.17 Insurance. The coverage under all insurance policies related to the Product Business and the Purchased Subsidiary and arranged or maintained by Seller or any of its Affiliates is only for the benefit of Seller and such Affiliates, and not for the benefit of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Subsidiary). As of the Closing Date, Xxxxx agrees to arrange for its own insurance policies with respect to the Product Business, all Purchased Assets, any Assumed Liabilities and the Purchased Subsidiary covering all periods and agrees not to seek (and to cause the Purchased Subsidiary not to seek), through any means, to benefit from any of Seller’s or its Affiliates’ insurance policies which may provide coverage for claims relating in any way to the Product Business, Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities and the Purchased Subsidiary.

5.18 Services from Affiliates. Other than as may be provided pursuant to the terms of any Ancillary Agreement, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any and all administrative, corporate and other services and benefits provided to the Product Business by Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Purchased Subsidiary) prior to the Closing (including pursuant to any Affiliate Contract) shall cease, and any agreement in respect thereof shall terminate with respect to the Product Business, as of the Closing Date, and thereafter, Seller’s and its Affiliates’ sole obligation with respect to the provision of any services with respect to the Product Business shall be as set forth in the Ancillary Agreements.

5.19 R&W Policy. Prior to or substantially concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Xxxxx has caused or shall cause to be bound a representations and warranties insurance policy in respect of the Transactions (the “R&W Policy”). The R&W Policy shall provide that (a) the insurer or insurers under the R&W Policy (the “R&W Insurer”) shall have no right of subrogation against Seller or any of its Affiliates (except to the extent Seller or its Affiliates committed Fraud) and the R&W Insurer has waived and shall not pursue any such

right of subrogation (except to the extent Seller or its Affiliates committed Fraud) and (b) Buyer is not obligated to bring any claim against Seller or any of its Affiliates prior to bringing a claim under the R&W Policy. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, Seller shall have no liability to the R&W Insurer under the binder for the R&W Policy or the R&W Policy. Buyer shall not and shall cause its Affiliates not to, amend, modify or otherwise change, terminate or waive any provision of the R&W Policy (i) with respect to the waiver of subrogation set forth therein or (ii) with respect to coverage for breaches of any Fundamental Representations of Seller in any manner that would reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to Seller and its Affiliates, without Seller’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), such as with respect to the policy term, retention amount or coverage amount, including in any manner that could materially increase or materially expand the ability or rights of the insurer thereunder to bring an action against, or otherwise seek recourse from, Seller or any of its Affiliates.

Not later than 15 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, offer employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates to each Business Employee (other than each Leave Employee (as defined below)) providing for the same principal job location or a principal job location as of immediately following the Closing that is no more than 50 miles from the employee’s principal job location as of the date of this Agreement and a position with a substantially similar title as of immediately following the Closing as the employee’s title as of immediately prior to the Closing, and with compensation and benefits consistent with the terms set forth in this Article 6; it being understood that such offer may provide for a reasonable adjustment to the territory of a Business Employee who is a sales representative. Such employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates shall be contingent on the Closing and, other than for Specified Employees, commence as of the Closing

Date. Seller shall provide Buyer with all information reasonably necessary to make such offers of employment, including each Business Employee’s legal name, address and e-mail address. For all purposes of this Article 6, with respect to any Delayed Commencement Employee, the date that such Delayed Commencement Employee commences active employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates or the time of such commencement of employment shall be substituted for the terms “Closing Date” or “Closing”, respectively, wherever such term appears. Any Business Employee hired by Buyer or one of its Affiliates in accordance with this Section 6.1 shall be referred to as a “Transferred Employee.” Nothing herein shall be construed as a representation or guarantee by Seller or its Affiliates that any Business Employee will accept the offer of employment from Buyer or one of its Affiliates, or will continue in employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates following the Closing. Buyer shall provide Seller with a copy of the form of offer letter, and any other documentation, to be used to make offers in accordance with this Section 6.1 at least five Business Days prior to the extension of such offers and will consider in good faith any comments promptly received from Seller.

6.1.2 Each Business Employee who (a) as of the Closing, is not actively at work as a result of an approved leave of absence (which, for clarity, shall not include vacation) (each, a “Leave Employee”), or (b) as of the date hereof, is in the process of applying for another position with Seller and its Affiliates and is listed on Schedule 6.1.2 (each, a “Specified Employee” and, together with Leave Employees, the “Delayed Commencement Employees”), will remain an employee of Seller and its Affiliates. Subject to Seller notifying Buyer of a Leave Employee’s return to active employment within 10 Business Days of such return, Buyer or one of its Affiliates shall make an offer of employment to such Leave Employee on terms consistent with the terms of this Article 6; provided that the Leave Employee returned to active employment with Seller or one of its Affiliates within six months following the Closing Date (or such longer period required by applicable Law or pursuant to an approved maternity or parental leave). The offer from Buyer or its Affiliate to a Specified Employee pursuant to this Article 6 may be accepted by the Specified Employee any time prior to 10 Business Days after Seller, or its Affiliate, notifies Buyer that the Specified Employee will not be offered the other position with Seller and its Affiliates. Seller shall inform Specified Employees of its decision as to whether each Specified Employee will be offered another position with Seller or its Affiliates prior to the Closing Date. Any Delayed Commencement Employee who is offered and commences employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates shall thereafter be considered a Transferred Employee for all purposes of this Agreement. Seller and its Affiliates shall retain and be responsible for all Liabilities, costs and expenses related to the employment or termination of employment of Delayed Commencement Employees, including the compensation and benefits payable to such Delayed Commencement Employees, until the date such Delayed Commencement Employee becomes a Transferred Employee.

6.2 Terms of Employment.

6.2.1 Compensation and Benefits. Commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, provide to each Transferred Employee: (a) base salary or wages that are no less favorable than the base salary or wages provided to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (b) target cash incentive or bonus opportunities, and sales incentive opportunities, as applicable, that are no less favorable than the

target cash incentive or bonus opportunities, and sales incentive opportunities, as applicable, provided to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, (c) target equity incentive opportunities substantially comparable in value (measured as of the date of grant) to those granted to such Transferred Employee during the year prior to the Closing Date, and (d) employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those available to the Transferred Employees under the Employee Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date (excluding severance, retention, perquisites, defined benefit pension, post-employment health or welfare and any equity or equity-based benefits), other than participation in an employee stock purchase plan.

6.2.2 Severance. During the Continuation Period, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, provide each Transferred Employee whose employment is terminated by Buyer or one of its Affiliates for any reason other than for cause (as defined in Buyer’s U.S. Severance Pay Plan and Summary Plan Description dated as of May 16, 2022), or who terminates employment if Buyer or its Affiliate requires the Transferred Employee to relocate 50 miles or more from the Transferred Employee’s principal job location as of immediately prior to the Closing (it being understood that a reasonable adjustment to the territory of a Business Employee who is a sales representative shall not constitute a relocation of such Transferred Employee’s principal job location), with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits as in effect on the date of this Agreement and set forth on Schedule 6.2.2. After the Continuation Period, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, provide such Transferred Employees with severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Affiliates. Buyer shall be solely responsible for, and have all Liability with respect to, any severance or similar obligation with respect to or arising from the termination of employment of (a) any Transferred Employee with Buyer and its Affiliates after the Closing and (b) any severance that becomes due under Seller’s U.S. severance plan as in effect on the date of this Agreement to any Business Employee, or, for any Business Employee outside the U.S., any severance, notice or other termination pay under applicable Law or the Business Employee’s employment Contract, in each case, as a result of such Business Employee not receiving an employment offer in accordance with Section 6.1 (in each case, including the employer portion of any payroll, social security, unemployment or similar Taxes).

Effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, maintain a defined contribution plan that is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”). All Transferred Employees who were eligible immediately prior to the Closing Date to participate in the qualified defined contribution plan sponsored by Seller or any of its Affiliates (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”) shall be eligible to participate in the Buyer 401(k) Plan effective as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within two payroll periods) after the Closing Date. Seller shall, or cause its Affiliate to, fully vest the account balances of Transferred Employees in the Seller 401(k) Plan as of the Closing Date. The Buyer 401(k) Plan shall accept the rollover of any “eligible rollover distribution” (within the meaning of Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from any qualified retirement plan of Seller and its Affiliates, including the rollover of plan loans from the Seller 401(k) Plan. Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate in good faith in order to facilitate any such distribution or rollover and to effect an eligible rollover

distribution for those Transferred Employees who elect to roll over their account balances, including notes, directly into the Buyer 401(k) Plan. At the end of the plan year including the Closing Date, Buyer shall notify Seller of all Transferred Employees that remain employees of Buyer as of the end of such year, after which (a) Seller shall make a contribution to the Seller 401(k) Plan for each such Transferred Employee equal to the pro rata amount, based on the number of days elapsed as of the Closing Date during the calendar year in which the Closing occurs, of the employer non-elective retirement contribution provided for under the Seller 401(k) Plan; and (b) to the extent permitted under the Code, Buyer shall make a contribution to the Buyer 401(k) Plan for each such Transferred Employee equal to the pro rata amount, based on the number of days in the calendar year in which the Closing occurs that follow the Closing Date, of the employer non-elective retirement contribution described in the Seller 401(k) Plan; provided, however, that the amount described in clause (b) shall be reduced by the amount of employer non-elective contributions Buyer provides, if any, to each such Transferred Employee during the period from the Closing Date through the end of the year in which the Closing occurs.

6.2.4 Health and Welfare Benefits. Effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, maintain health and welfare benefit plans, programs and policies, including a group health plan, in which Transferred Employees and their respective spouses, dependents or other beneficiaries shall be eligible to participate (the “Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans”). Buyer shall cause each Transferred Employee (and eligible dependents thereof) to be eligible to participate in each Buyer Welfare Benefit Plan on the Closing Date such that there is no gap in coverage. Effective from and after the Closing Date and with respect to each Transferred Employee (and eligible dependents thereof), Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to: (a) waive any pre-existing condition exclusion, actively-at-work requirement, evidence of insurability, waiting period, pre-certification, ongoing treatment, or similar condition, limitation or requirement under all Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans and (b) provide full credit under all Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans that provide health benefits for any co-payments, deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums or similar payments made or incurred under an Employee Benefit Plan by such Transferred Employee (or covered dependent thereof) prior to the Closing Date for the plan year in which the Closing occurs (subject to Seller’s and its Affiliates’ timely provision to Buyer and its Affiliates of all reasonably necessary information to implement this clause (b)).

6.2.5 Service Crediting. Effective from and after the Closing Date and with respect to each Transferred Employee, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, recognize all prior service with Seller and its Affiliates and their respective predecessors for purposes of eligibility and vesting, and for purposes of determining levels of benefits for vacation, paid time off, and severance, under all Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans and any other employee benefit plans of Buyer and its Affiliates, except (a) to the extent such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service, (b) with respect to benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan, or (c) for any Buyer benefit plan that is a frozen plan, provides grandfathered benefits or provides post-employment welfare benefits.

6.3 Assumption of Liabilities and Responsibilities Relating to Transferred Employees.

6.3.1 Employment and Employee Benefits. Buyer shall, and shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, assume, and be responsible for, all Liabilities with respect to employment, employee benefits and related matters with respect to all Transferred Employees that are payable from and after the Closing, regardless of whether such Liabilities arise before, on or after the Closing, excluding Liabilities in respect of Employee Benefit Plans, except as specifically provided in this Article 6. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Article 6, Seller and its Affiliates shall retain (a) all Liabilities and other obligations with respect to, the Employee Benefit Plans and any other benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement at any time sponsored, maintained, contributed to by Seller or any of its ERISA Affiliates, and (b) all Liabilities with respect to all current and former employees of Seller and its Affiliates (other than Liabilities with respect to the Transferred Employees that are expressly assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Article 6), and all such Liabilities and other obligations described in clauses (a) and (b) shall constitute “Excluded Liabilities” for purposes of this Agreement.

6.3.2 Retention Agreements. Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, assume, continue, and be responsible for, any payments that become due under the cash retention agreements set forth on Section 6.3.2 of the Disclosure Schedules between Transferred Employees and Seller and its Affiliates. Upon the conclusion of each applicable retention period, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, pay any amount due under such agreement in accordance with its terms to the Transferred Employee. Seller shall, no later than 10 Business Days after the date of such payment to the Transferred Employee, reimburse Buyer for a pro-rated portion of the amount paid (including the employer portion of any employment, payroll, social security, Medicare, national insurance contributions, unemployment or other Taxes or similar obligations associated with such payments) and due under the terms of the retention agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Closing, based on the number of days elapsed in the retention period as of the Closing.

6.3.3 Short-Term Incentives. Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, continue each short-term incentive arrangement set forth on Section 6.3.3 of the Disclosure Schedules in which a Transferred Employee participated as of immediately prior to the Closing through the end of the applicable incentive period. Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, pay amounts earned and that become due under each such arrangement, as in effect immediately prior to the Closing. Such amounts will be calculated based on target for the portion of the incentive period through the Closing Date and, the actual level of performance (as reasonably determined by Buyer and its Affiliates)for the applicable incentive period that follows the Closing Date. Seller shall, no later than 10 Business Days after the date of such payment to the Transferred Employee, reimburse Buyer for a pro-rated portion of the amount paid (including the employer portion of any employment, payroll, social security, Medicare, national insurance contributions, unemployment or other Taxes or similar obligations associated with such payments) based on the number of days elapsed in the incentive period as of the Closing, except that Seller shall not be responsible for reimbursing amounts paid (including the employer portion of any employment, payroll, social security, Medicare, national insurance contributions, unemployment or other Taxes or similar obligations associated with such payments) in excess of target. For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations in this Section 6.3.3 are in addition to the obligations in Section 6.2.1.

6.3.4 Equity and Equity-Based Awards. With respect to each award related to the equity interests of Seller or any of its Affiliates held by a Transferred Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing (each such award, a “Seller Equity Award”), Seller and its Affiliates shall take all action necessary to accelerate on a prorated basis (corresponding to the portion of the vesting period elapsed prior to the Closing, based on the number of completed months) the vesting and settlement of each such Seller Equity Award effective as of immediately prior to, as of or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing (except that settlement may be delayed to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code). For clarity, Seller and its Affiliates shall retain all Liabilities related to each Seller Equity Award. Buyer shall provide to each Transferred Employee who held one or more Seller Equity Awards that was cancelled in whole or in part as of the Closing Date with one or more equity awards under Buyer’s equity plans (a “Replacement Equity Award”), with each such Replacement Equity Award to have a grant date value equal to the value of the cancelled portion of the Seller Equity Award(s) (measured for this purpose based on the closing price of Novartis AG ordinary shares on the New York Stock Exchange on the date as of which the applicable Seller Equity Award(s) were cancelled (or, if such day is not a trading day, on the most recent preceding trading day)) and to be subject to Buyer’s standard vesting schedule. For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxx’s obligations in this Section 6.3.4 are in addition to the obligations in Section 6.2.1.

6.3.5 COBRA. Seller shall retain all Liabilities and the responsibility for complying with any obligations arising under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 and Sections 701 et seq. of ERISA, Section 4980B and Sections 9801 et seq. of the Code and applicable state or similar Laws with respect to any “M&A qualified beneficiaries” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9.

6.3.6 Vacation. Buyer shall assume, and be responsible for, all Liabilities for accrued but unused vacation and other paid time off with respect to the Transferred Employees as of the Closing; provided, however, Seller shall bear the costs and retain the Liabilities for any such accrued and unused vacation and other paid time off that are required to be paid to the Transferred Employees by applicable Law in connection with the Closing and the Parties shall arrange to pay such amounts to the Transferred Employees. Following the Closing, Buyer shall permit the Transferred Employees to use such accrued vacation and paid time off in accordance with the vacation and paid time off practices in effect for such Transferred Employees immediately prior to the Closing and pay to any Transferred Employee whose employment terminates prior to such Transferred Employee’s utilization of all such accrued vacation and paid time off the cash equivalent amount of any such unused accrued vacation and paid time off at the time of such Transferred Employee’s termination. For any Transferred Employee who received a payment for accrued and unused vacation and other paid time off under applicable Law as described in the first sentence of this Section 6.3.6, following the Closing Date, Buyer shall allow such Transferred Employee to use an amount of vacation and other paid time off equal to the amount of vacation and other paid time off paid to such Transferred Employee (subject to a maximum amount equal to the amount of vacation and other paid time off such Transferred Employee would accrue for six months under the applicable Buyer plans and policies), which shall be deducted from the vacation and other paid time off that such Transferred Employee may accrue following the Closing Date; provided that if any Transferred Employee’s employment terminates with Buyer and its Affiliates after such vacation or paid time off is used but before such vacation or paid time off is earned or accrued, Buyer and its Affiliates may, in its discretion, require such Transferred Employee to repay the cash equivalent amount of any vacation and paid time off that was used but not accrued.

6.3.7 Workers’ Compensation. Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, assume, and be responsible for, all workers’ compensation benefits payable to or on behalf of the Transferred Employees, except that Seller and its Affiliates shall be responsible for all workers’ compensation benefits payable under the terms and conditions of the workers’ compensation programs maintained by Seller and its Affiliates for claims by or on behalf of Transferred Employees incurred or relating to events occurring prior to the Closing Date (including any injuries identifiably sustained by Transferred Employees after the Closing Date that are aggravations or reinjuries of injuries or illnesses that were sustained on or before the Closing and treatment after the Closing required by Transferred Employees following complete recovery from injuries sustained on or before the Closing). A claim for workers’ compensation benefits shall be deemed to be incurred when the event giving rise to the claim occurs. If such workers’ compensation event occurs over a period both preceding and following the Closing, the claim shall be the joint responsibility and liability of Seller and Buyer and shall be equitably apportioned between Seller and Buyer based upon the relative periods of time that the event transpired preceding and following the Closing.

6.3.8 WARN. Buyer shall, or shall cause one or more of its Affiliates to, provide any required notice under the WARN Act, and to otherwise comply with the WARN Act with respect to any “plant closing”, “mass layoff” or group termination or similar event (each within the meaning of the WARN Act) affecting Transferred Employees (including as a result of the consummation of Transactions) and occurring from and after the Closing. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall take any action on or after the Closing Date that would cause any termination of employment of any Business Employees by Seller or its Affiliates occurring prior to the Closing to constitute a “plant closing,” “mass layoff” or group termination or similar event under the WARN Act, or to create any liability or penalty to Seller or its Affiliates for any employment terminations under Law. Within five Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide a list of each employee who was located at the same site of employment as a Business Employee for purposes of the WARN Act and whose employment was involuntarily terminated by Seller or one of its Affiliates during the 90-day period prior to the Closing, including the date of such termination of employment.

6.4 Cooperation. Following the date hereof, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, and Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate and use good faith efforts in all matters reasonably necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Article 6, including exchanging information and data relating to workers’ compensation, employee benefits and employee benefit plan coverages (except to the extent prohibited by Law) and making any and all required filings and notices. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall be provided the opportunity to review and comment on any employee notices or communication materials (including website postings) regarding the Transactions from Seller or its Affiliates to the Business Employees, including notices or communication materials with respect to employment, compensation or benefits matters addressed in this Agreement or related, directly or indirectly, to the Transactions or employment after the Closing prepared by Seller or its Affiliates prior to their distribution, and Seller and its Affiliates shall reflect any reasonable comments promptly received from Buyer.

6.5 Sales Incentive Program. Promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Parties shall work in good faith to design and mutually agree on the terms of a sales incentive plan providing for incentive bonuses of up to $10,000,000 in the aggregate to eligible Transferred Employees, which terms shall generally include the eligibility, performance and other guidelines set forth on Schedule 6.5 (the “Sales Incentive Program”). If this Agreement terminates for any reason other than pursuant to Section 9.1.4, within 30 days following such termination, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount owed, or committed to be paid, by Seller pursuant to the Sales Incentive Program up to an aggregate of $10,000,000, plus all applicable employer payroll taxes and similar amounts. Seller shall, following consultation in good faith with Xxxxx, communicate to eligible Business Employees the relevant provisions in this Section 6.5. Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy of the template communication at least 10 Business Days prior to such communication and will reflect any comments promptly received from Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, Xxxxx’s obligations under this Section 6.5 shall be in addition to Buyer’s other obligations under this Article 6.

6.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Subject to Section 10.16, no provision in this Article 6 or otherwise in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall (a) create or confer any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any employee or former employee, independent contractor, consultant, director or officer of Seller or any of its Affiliates (including any Business Employee, Transferred Employee or beneficiary or dependent thereof); (b) create any rights to continued employment with Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or in any way prevent or limit the ability of Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates to terminate the employment of any individual, including any Business Employee or Transferred Employee, at any time and for any reason; (c) constitute or be deemed to constitute an amendment to any Employee Benefit Plan, Buyer Welfare Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement sponsored or maintained by Seller, Buyer or any of their Affiliates; or (d) alter or in any way limit the ability of Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify, or terminate any Employee Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement sponsored or maintained by Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates.

8.1.1 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the provisions of this Article 8, from and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, and employees (collectively, “Buyer Indemnitees”) from and against, and compensate and reimburse the Buyer Indemnitees for, any and all Losses actually incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee arising out of:

(b) any Excluded Liability; or

(c) any Liability pursuant to (a) Section 11.02(b)(ii) of the Takeda Agreement in respect of any breach of any covenant or agreement pursuant to the Takeda Agreement by Seller or its Affiliates prior to the Closing or (b) Section 11.02(b)(iii) or Section 11.02(b)(iv) of the Takeda Agreement, in each case to the extent arising out of, relating to, or in respect of (i) any Purchased Assets (as defined in the Takeda Agreement) except to the extent included in the Purchased Assets (excluding, for these purposes, the Takeda Agreement), (ii) the Business (as defined in the Takeda Agreement) except to the extent included in the Product Business or (iii) any Business Employees (as defined in the Takeda Agreement) to the extent not included in the Business Employees.

(d) with respect to the use of the Retained Names and Marks by Buyer or any of its Affiliates in violation of or outside the scope permitted by Section 5.15.

8.2 Claim Procedure.

8.2.1 Indemnification Claim Procedure. Except as provided in Section 8.2.2 with respect to Third Party Claims, in the event of a claim made by a Buyer Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party shall give reasonably prompt written notice to the Party that may be obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 8.1, (the “Indemnifying Party”), which notice (an “Indemnification Certificate”) shall: (a) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or properly accrued or in good faith anticipates that it will have to pay or accrue Losses that are subject to indemnification by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.1.2, as applicable, and (b) specify in reasonable detail the individual items and amounts of such Losses (or a good faith estimate of the amount of such Losses to the extent the actual amount of Losses are unknown at such time), the date each such item was paid or properly accrued, or the basis for such anticipated Liability, and a description of the basis of such Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification; provided, however, that the failure to give reasonably prompt notice shall not relieve the applicable Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by any delay in receiving such notice. In the event that the Indemnifying Party agrees to or is determined to have an obligation to indemnify or reimburse the Indemnified Party for Losses as provided in this Article 8, the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8.2.2, promptly (but, in any event, within 30 days following such agreement or determination) pay such amount to the Indemnified Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified in writing by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party objects to all or a portion of the Indemnified Party’s claim made in the Indemnification Certificate, the Indemnifying Party (i) will notify the Indemnified Party of such objection by delivering a written statement (the “Objection Notice”) to the Indemnifying Party within 30 days following receipt of the Indemnification Certificate and (ii) may defer making such payment, subject to delivery of an Objection Notice pursuant to the preceding clause (i). The Objection Notice shall indicate whether the Indemnifying Party objects to all or only a portion of the claim specified in the Indemnification Certificate and shall specify in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances supporting the Indemnifying Party’s basis and reasons for such objection. If the Indemnifying Party in its Objection Notice objects only to a

portion of the claim set forth in the Indemnification Certificate (the amount of Losses claimed in the Indemnification Certificate to which the Indemnifying Party does not object shall be referred to herein as the “Agreed Amount”), then, subject to the limitations of this Article 8, such Indemnifying Party shall, within 10 Business Days following the delivery of such Objection Notice pay the Agreed Amount to the Indemnified Party. If an Indemnifying Party shall provide an Objection Notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.2.1, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt in good faith for a period of 20 days following the Indemnified Party’s receipt of the Objection Notice to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If no such agreement can be reached after such 20-day period of good faith negotiation, either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party may submit such Dispute for resolution in accordance with Section 10.1.2.

8.2.2 Third Party Claim Procedure.

(a) In the event an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a claim made by a Third Party (including any action or proceeding commenced or threatened to be commenced by any Third Party) (a “Third Party Claim”) that such Indemnified Party in good faith believes may result in an indemnification claim pursuant to Section 8.1, such Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days after becoming aware of such claim) notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third Party Claim (such notice, the “Claim Notice”). The Claim Notice shall be accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation submitted by the Third Party making such claim and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Indemnified Party) the facts constituting the basis for such claim and the amount of the claimed damages; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in delivering a Claim Notice shall relieve the applicable Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by any delay in receiving such notice.

(b) Within 60 days after receipt of any Claim Notice, (a) the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of the Third Party Claim referred to therein at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense (which shall be subject to Section 8.3), and (b) if the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall control the defense of such Third Party Claim. The party not controlling the defense of such Third Party Claim (the “Non-Controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense. The party controlling the defense of such Third Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-Controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Third Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-Controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-Controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third Party Claim (including copies of any summons, notice, complaint or other pleading that may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same), notify any insurer whose coverage is available to the Non-Controlling Party with respect to such claim and cooperate with the Controlling Party to coordinate other applicable insurance available to the Non-Controlling Party, and otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third Party Claim. Neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party shall admit any Liability or wrongdoing, agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any

judgment arising from, any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party shall not be required with respect to any such settlement or judgment if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay or cause to be paid any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes no admission of Liability or wrongdoing by or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and includes a complete release of the Indemnified Party from any Liability with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2.2(b) shall not apply in respect of any Tax Proceeding of or with respect to the Purchased Subsidiary (which shall be governed under Section 5.13.4) and (B) subject to Section 5.13.4, Buyer shall have the exclusive right to control any Tax Proceeding with respect to a Tax Return of Buyer, any of its Affiliates or any consolidated, affiliated, fiscal, loss sharing, combined or similar group of which such Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a member.

8.3 Limitations on Indemnification.

8.3.1 In no event shall Seller’s aggregate liability under Section 8.1.1 or Buyer’s aggregate liability under Section 8.1.2 (excluding with respect to Buyer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price, which shall not count against the limitations provided herein), respectively, exceed the amount of the Purchase Price.

8.3.2 No Party shall have any liability under this Article 8 for an otherwise indemnifiable Loss that is contingent unless and until such contingent Loss becomes an actual Loss of the Indemnified Party and is due and payable, so long as the claim for such Loss was timely submitted pursuant to the provisions of this Article 8.

8.3.3 Except with respect to Losses arising from Excluded Taxes, no Party shall be liable for any Losses under this Article 8 to the extent the Buyer Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, failed to mitigate such Losses in accordance with applicable Laws. Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss indemnifiable hereunder (except with respect to Losses arising from Excluded Taxes) upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any such Loss. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 8.3.3 shall be interpreted as in any way limiting any Party’s rights or obligations under Section 5.13.

8.3.4 The amount of Losses recovered by an Indemnified Party under Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.1.2, as applicable, shall be reduced by (a) any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from a Third Party in connection with such claim, (b) the amount of any insurance proceeds paid to the Indemnified Party relating to such claim (including under the R&W Policy) and (c) any Tax benefit arising from any Losses that are attributable to the Purchased Subsidiary, but only to the extent that (x) the related indemnification payment does not result in a reduction in the tax basis of any asset of Buyer or its Affiliates other than the Purchased Shares and (y) such Tax benefit is actually realized by the Indemnified Party in cash in the current year and taxable year immediately following in which such Losses are incurred (calculated on a “with and without” basis), net of any reasonable, documented, out of pocket costs and expenses or Taxes incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with obtaining such recovery, proceeds or Tax benefit. An Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable

efforts to collect insurance proceeds for any Loss that is subject to indemnification by any Indemnifying Party under Section 8.1.1 or Section 8.1.2, as applicable. If any amounts referenced in the preceding clauses (a) and (b) are received after payment by the Indemnifying Party of the full amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 8, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such receipt, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article 8 had such amounts been received prior to such payment (net of any Taxes or other costs incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the collection or receipt of any such amounts).

8.3.5 In the event that an Indemnified Party has any rights against a Third Party with respect to any occurrence, claim or Loss that results in a payment by an Indemnifying Party under this Article 8, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to such rights to the extent of such payment. Without limiting the generality of any other provision hereof, each Indemnified Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the subrogation and subordination rights detailed herein, and otherwise cooperate in the prosecution of such claims.

8.3.6 For the avoidance of doubt, no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article 8 in respect of any Loss to the extent such Indemnified Party has been previously indemnified or reimbursed in respect of such Loss pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any Ancillary Agreement. No Party shall be entitled to any payment, adjustment or indemnification more than once with respect to the same matter.

8.4 Survival. The representations and warranties of Seller and Buyer contained in this Agreement shall terminate effective as of the Closing and shall not survive the Closing for any purpose whatsoever; provided that the Fundamental Representations shall remain in full force and effect and shall survive until 18 months following the Closing Date. The covenants, agreements and obligations of the Parties set forth in Article 4 and Section 5.23.1 shall terminate effective as of the Closing and shall not survive the Closing for any purpose whatsoever, other than the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Parties set forth in Section 4.2, which shall survive until 6 months following the Closing Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the covenants, agreements and obligations contained in this Agreement (other than in Article 4) shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect thereafter until fully performed in accordance with this Agreement. If a Claim Notice or Indemnification Certificate relating to any matter for which indemnification is provided under this Article 8 is given to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the date on which the applicable survival period described in this Section 8.4 expires, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.4, such Claim Notice or Indemnification Certificate, as applicable, shall not expire at the applicable expiration date, but rather shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Claim Notice or the Indemnification Certificate has been fully and finally resolved.

8.5 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article 8 shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar or corresponding provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law).

8.6 Exclusive Remedy.

8.6.1 Except (x) as provided in Section 5.23.4, Section 6.1.1, Section 10.10 and paragraph 11 of Schedule 1.1(f), (y) for claims for Fraud or (z) as expressly set forth in Ancillary Agreement, and subject to Buyer’s rights pursuant to the R&W Policy, (a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that from and after the Closing the remedies provided for in this Article 8 and Section 5.13 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for claims and damages available to the Buyer Indemnitees arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Product Business, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities, the Purchased Shares, the Purchased Subsidiary and the Transactions, including the negotiation of this Agreement, any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made hereunder and Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ due diligence investigation with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; and (b) subject to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 8 and Section 5.13, Buyer hereby waives, on behalf of itself and each other Buyer Indemnitee, any and all rights, claims and causes of action, whether based on or in warranty, contract, tort (including negligence or strict liability), that any such Person may have against Seller or any of its past, present or future Affiliates, Representatives, incorporators, members, partners, stockholders, successors or assigns (and any past, present or future Affiliate, Representative, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, successor or assign of any of the foregoing) (each such Person, a “Released Party”), in each case, to the extent such rights, claims and causes of action arise out of or relate to this Agreement, the Product Business, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities, the Purchased Shares, the Purchased Subsidiary and the Transactions, including the negotiation of this Agreement, any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made hereunder and Xxxxx’s and its Affiliates’ due diligence investigation with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, “Released Claims”). Except as expressly provided for in this Agreement (including in this Article 8, in Section 5.23.4, in Section 6.1.1, in Section 10.10 and in paragraph 11 of Schedule 1.1(f)) and except for claims for Fraud, Buyer hereby irrevocably agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Buyer Indemnitee, to refrain from directly or indirectly asserting, or assisting any other Person’s assertion of, any right, claim or demand or commencing (or causing to be commenced) any Litigation of any kind, in any court or before any tribunal, against any Released Party based upon any Released Claim. Buyer, on behalf of itself and each other Buyer Indemnitee, hereby waives any rights it may have under any Law which provides that a general release does not extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by it may have materially affected its settlement. This Section 8.6 shall not affect either Party’s or any Affiliate of either Party’s ability to exercise any rights or remedies available to such Person pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement with respect to claims arising under such Ancillary Agreement.

8.6.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation contained herein shall, after the consummation of the Transactions, give rise to any right on the part of Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, to rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby.

8.6.3 No Released Party other than Seller shall have any liability, whether based on or in warranty, contract, tort (including negligence or strict liability) or otherwise, for any Liabilities of Seller arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of the Transactions, including any alleged non-disclosure or misrepresentations made by any such Persons.

8.6.4 Except in the case of claims for Fraud or any breach by Seller of any of its Fundamental Representations, Buyer, on behalf of itself and each other Buyer Indemnitee, acknowledges and agrees that the sole and exclusive source of recovery for the Buyer Indemnitees with respect to a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement, in the certificate delivered under Section 2.5.2(a)(ii) or otherwise shall be to make a claim against the R&W Policy. Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall have any direct or indirect Liability under the R&W Policy. In furtherance of the foregoing, (a) Buyer hereby agrees that, in the case of a claim for Fraud, Xxxxx shall be entitled to first seek recovery for such claim from Seller and (b) in the case of a claim for a breach by Seller of any of its Fundamental Representations (other than a claim for Fraud), Buyer shall (x) first seek recovery under the terms of the R&W Policy with respect to such claim and (y) second, if and only if such recovery under the terms of the R&W Policy has been denied (or such claim is expressly excluded from coverage under the terms of the R&W Policy) or such recovery is insufficient in amount or unavailable to satisfy such claim, then Buyer shall be entitled to seek recovery for such claim from Seller, subject to the limitations of this Article 8. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.6.4 shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of whether (i) the R&W Policy is never issued to Buyer, (ii) the R&W Policy is revoked, cancelled or modified in any manner or (iii) any Buyer Indemnitee makes a claim under the R&W Policy and such claim is denied by the R&W Insurer.

8.7 Setoff Rights. (a) Neither Party shall have any right of setoff of any amounts due and payable, or any Losses arising under this Agreement against any other amounts due and payable under this Agreement or any amounts due and payable, or any Losses arising, under any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement between Seller and Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates and (b) the payment obligations under each of this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and such other agreements remain independent obligations of each Party, irrespective of any amounts owed to any other Party under this Agreement, the respective Ancillary Agreements or such other agreements.

ARTICLE 9

TERMINATION

9.1 Termination. Prior to the Closing, this Agreement shall terminate on the earliest to occur of any of the following events:

9.1.1 the mutual written agreement of Xxxxx and Xxxxxx;

9.1.2 by written notice delivered by either Buyer or Seller to the other, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to July 1, 2024 (the “End Date”); provided, however, that if (x) the Closing shall not have occurred by such date by reason of nonsatisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1.1 (solely if the applicable Law or Order relates to any applicable Antitrust Laws) or Section 7.1.2 and (y) all other conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by Law, waived (other than any such conditions that are by their nature to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing), the End Date shall be September 30, 2024; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1.2 shall not be available to any Party whose breach of any representation or warranty hereunder or failure to comply with or perform any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, including the obligations under Section 4.3, primarily caused the failure of the Closing not to have occurred on or before the End Date;

9.1.3 by written notice delivered by either Buyer or Seller to the other, if consummation of the Transactions would violate any non-appealable final Order of any Governmental Authority having competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1.3 shall not be available to any Party whose failure to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement primarily caused the issuance of such Law or non-appealable final Order;

9.1.4 by written notice delivered by Buyer to Seller, if (a) there has been a breach by Seller of a representation or warranty of Seller contained in this Agreement or (b) there shall be a breach by Seller of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Seller in this Agreement, and such failure or breach described in clause (a) or (b) would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2.1 or Section 7.2.2 or, in the case of a breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation, is not cured (if capable of being cured) upon the earlier to occur of (a) the 30th day after written notice thereof is given by Buyer to Seller and (b) the day that is three Business Days prior to the End Date; provided, that Buyer may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1.4 if Buyer is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3.1 or Section 7.3.2 (other than those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied is primarily caused by a breach by Seller of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement); or

9.1.5 by written notice delivered by Seller to Buyer, if (a) there has been a breach by Buyer of a representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or there shall be a breach by Buyer of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Buyer in this Agreement, and such failure or breach would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3.1 or Section 7.3.2 or, in the case of a breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation, is not cured (if capable of being cured) upon the earlier to occur of (i) the 30th day after written notice thereof is given by Seller to Buyer and (ii) the day that is three Business Days prior to the End Date; provided, that Seller may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1.5 if Seller is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement and such breach would result in the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2.1 or Section 7.2.2 (other than those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied is primarily caused by a breach by Buyer of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations contained in this Agreement) or (b) notwithstanding any cure periods set forth in 9.1.5(a), (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by Law, waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) (ii) Seller has confirmed in writing to Buyer that Seller stands ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing and (iii) Buyer fails to consummate the Closing by the later of three Business Days after (A) such confirmation and (B) the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 2.5.1.

9.2 Procedure and Effect of Termination.

9.2.1 Notice of Termination. Termination of this Agreement by either Buyer or Seller shall be by delivery of a written notice to the other. Such notice shall state the termination provision in this Agreement that such terminating Party is claiming provides a basis for termination of this Agreement. Termination of this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.1 shall be effective upon and as of the date of delivery of such written notice as determined pursuant to Section 10.2.

9.2.2 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 by Buyer or Seller, this Agreement shall be terminated and have no further effect, except that Article 1 (Definitions), Sections 5.2 (Publicity), Section 5.3.1 (Confidentiality), Section 5.22.4 (Financing), Section 6.5 (Sales Incentive Program), Article 9 (Termination) and Article 10 (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination of this Agreement and there shall be no liability hereunder on the part of Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, except (i) as liability may exist pursuant to the Sections or Articles specified in this Section 9.2.2(a) that survive such termination, and (ii) that no such termination shall relieve a Party from any liability arising out of any Fraud by such Party or Willful Breach by such Party of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation of such Party contained herein prior to such termination. “Willful Breach” means an intentional and willful material breach, or an intentional and willful material failure to perform, in each case, that is the consequence of an act or omission by a party with the knowledge that the taking of such act or failure to take such act would cause a breach of this Agreement. For clarity, in the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, the Parties shall not enter into any of the Ancillary Agreements not entered into on the date hereof or have any obligations thereunder.

(b) In the event that (i) (A) Buyer or Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.2 or Section 9.1.3, (B) at the time of such termination, all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by Law, waived other than (x) any such conditions that are by their nature to be satisfied at the Closing, but which conditions are capable of being satisfied at the Closing, and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 7.1.1 (solely if the applicable Law or Order relates to any applicable Antitrust Laws) or Section 7.1.2 (solely with respect to any applicable Antitrust Laws) and (C) no breach by Seller of its obligations under Section 4.3 has been the primary cause of the failure to be satisfied of all or any of the conditions listed in the foregoing clause (y), (ii) Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.5(a) due to a breach by Buyer of a representation or warranty of Buyer contained in Section 3.2.6 or a breach by Buyer of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Buyer contained in Section 5.22 or Section 5.23, (iii) Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.5(b), or (iv) Buyer or Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.2 at any time at which Seller was entitled to this Agreement pursuant to (A) Section 9.1.5(a) due a breach by Buyer of a representation or warranty of Buyer contained in Section 3.2.6 or a breach by Buyer of any covenant, agreement or obligation of Buyer contained in Section 5.22 or Section 5.23 or (B)

101

Section 9.1.5(b), then Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller the Reverse Termination Fee no later than five Business Days after such termination in the event of a termination by Seller and as a condition to termination in the event of a termination by Buyer, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts designated by Seller. Buyer will not be required to pay the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.2.2(b) on more than one occasion, whether or not the Reverse Termination Fee may be payable under more than one sub-clause of this Section 9.2.2(b) at the same or at different times and upon the occurrence of different events. “Reverse Termination Fee” means $100,000,000. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (1) the fees (and limitations) and other provisions of this Section 9.2.2(b) and Section 9.2.2(c)are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement, (2) solely for purposes of establishing the basis for the amount thereof, and without in any way increasing or decreasing the amount of the Reverse Termination Fee or expanding the circumstances in which the Reverse Termination Fee is to be paid, subject to Section 9.2.2(a)(ii), it is agreed that the Reverse Termination Fee, together with Seller’s Collection Fees and Expenses, constitutes liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Seller for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance upon this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and for the loss suffered by reason of the failure of such consummation, which amount would otherwise be uncertain and incapable of accurate determination and not a penalty and (3) the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee, together with Seller’s Collection Fees and Expenses, in the circumstances specified herein is supported by due and sufficient consideration. Each Party covenants and agrees that it will not take any position that is in any way inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) If Buyer fails promptly to pay the Reverse Termination Fee when due pursuant to Section 9.2.2(b), Buyer shall pay Seller’s and its respective Affiliates’ costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with seeking such payment, together with interest (calculated as simple interest) on the Reverse Termination Fee from the date such payment was required to be made hereunder until the date such payment was actually received by Seller (whether before or after any insolvency or bankruptcy), at a rate equal to the six month term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Term SOFR) as administered by CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited (CBA) (or a successor administrator of that rate) on the date such payment was required to be made hereunder or, if unavailable, on the latest date prior to the payment due date on which such rate is available, plus three percent (collectively, if any, the “Seller’s Collection Fees and Expenses”). Such interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days payment is delinquent, not to exceed the maximum permitted by Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, but subject to (x) Section 10.10, (y) the indemnification and reimbursement obligations in Section 5.23.4, Section 6.1.1, Section 6.5 and Section 9.2.2(c) and (z) Section 9.2.2(a)(ii), the Parties acknowledge and agree that the right of Seller to receive the Reverse Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Seller Related Parties against Buyer, its Affiliates and the respective former, current or future general or limited partners, stockholders, other equity holders, members, managers, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and the Representatives of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Buyer Related Parties”) for all Losses in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions in the event the Closing does not occur, and upon payment of the Reverse Termination Fee, and, if applicable, Seller’s Collection Fees and Expenses, to Seller, none

102

of the Buyer Related Parties shall have any further Liability to any of the Seller Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to (x) the indemnification and reimbursement obligations in Section 5.23.4, Section 6.1.1, Section 6.5 and Section 9.2.2(c) and (y) Section 9.2.2(a)(ii), in no event shall one or more Seller Related Parties be entitled to seek or obtain any recovery or judgment, in the aggregate, in excess of the Reverse Termination Fee against one or more Buyer Related Parties or any of their respective assets, and in no event shall one or more Seller Related Parties be entitled to seek or obtain any other damages of any kind against one or more Buyer Related Parties for, or with respect to, this Agreement or the Transactions, including in connection with any breach by Buyer, the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the Transactions or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure; provided, however, that this Section 9.2.2(c) shall not limit the right of Seller to seek specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in Section 10.10 prior to the termination of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, while Seller may pursue both specific performance under Section 10.10 and the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee under Section 9.2.2(b), after Buyer has paid the Reverse Termination Fee, in no event shall Seller or any Seller Related Party be entitled to specific performance pursuant to Section 10.10 and (b) in no event shall Buyer be required to pay both (i) the Reverse Termination Fee and (ii) any other Losses.

(d) If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein (i) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and their respective Representatives to, promptly (but in no event later than the date that is 10 days following the date of such termination of this Agreement), return or destroy all Confidential Information pursuant to Section 4 of the Confidentiality Agreement; provided that any such Confidential Information retained pursuant to Section 4 of the Confidentiality Agreement will continue to be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement regardless of the termination of this Agreement and any and all duties and obligations existing under the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, notwithstanding any such return or destruction of the Confidential Information; and (ii) as soon as practicable following a termination of this Agreement for any reason, but in no event less than 30 days after such termination, Buyer or Seller shall, to the extent practicable, withdraw all filings, applications and other submissions relating to the Transactions filed or submitted by or on behalf of such Party to any Governmental Authority or other Person.

10.3 No Benefit to Third Parties. Except for the rights of the Buyer Indemnitees and Seller Indemnitees under Article 8, the rights of the Purchased Subsidiary Indemnitees and their respective heirs and Representatives under Section 5.20 and the rights of Seller, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives under Section 5.23.4, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the Parties and such successors and assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder; provided, however, that Xxxxx expressly agrees that Seller may seek to enforce Xxxxx’s compliance with the provisions of Article 6 for the benefit of any Transferred Employee (or beneficiary or dependent thereof) notwithstanding that Seller may itself not have suffered any damages as a result of Buyer’s noncompliance.

10.4 Waiver. Any term or condition of this Agreement may be waived at any time by the Party that is entitled to the benefit thereof, but no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. The waiver by any Party of any right hereunder or of the failure to perform or of a breach by the other Party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any other breach or failure by said other Party whether of a similar nature or otherwise. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder, and no course of dealing between the Parties, shall be effective to amend or waive any provision of this Agreement.

106

10.5 Expenses. Except as otherwise specified herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, and whether or not the Closing takes place, each Party shall pay its own legal, accounting and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and all documents and instruments executed pursuant hereto and the consummation of the Transactions and any other costs and expenses incurred by such Party.

10.6 Limitation on Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, in no event shall any Party be liable in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for any special, indirect, incidental, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, damages for lost profits or revenues, business interruption or lost opportunities or any damages calculated by reference to a multiplier of revenue, profits, EBITDA or similar methodology (as to all such damages, except to the extent actually paid by such Party to a Third Party pursuant to a Third Party Claim), whether or not caused by or resulting from the actions of such Party or the breach of its covenants, agreements, representations or warranties hereunder and whether or not based on or in warranty, contract, tort (including negligence or strict liability) or otherwise.

10.7 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor either Party’s rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by such Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempted assignment or delegation of this Agreement or any of such rights or obligations by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party shall be void and of no effect except that either Party may assign or delegate any or all of its rights or obligations hereunder (i) to an Affiliate without the prior written consent of the other Party, provided that such assigning Party shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) pursuant to Schedule 1.1(f). Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.8 Amendment. Subject to Section 10.16, this Agreement may not be modified, amended, altered or supplemented except upon the execution and delivery of a written agreement executed by both Parties.

10.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law, (a) such provision shall be fully severable, (b) this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and reasonably acceptable to the Parties.

107

10.10 Equitable Relief. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, 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 (a) either Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity, and (b) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, no Party would have entered into this Agreement.

10.17 Parent Guarantee.

10.17.1 Parent hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees (a) the full and punctual payment of any amount or amounts due and payable by Buyer and its Affiliates (other than Parent) under this Agreement, including pursuant to Article 8, and under each Ancillary Agreement and (b) the timely satisfaction and performance of all obligations of Buyer and its Affiliates (other than Parent) under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Xxxxx acknowledges and agrees that the guarantee described in this Section 10.17 is a primary guarantee of performance and not just of collection. Parent agrees that if Xxxxx fails to make any payment that is required to be made by Buyer under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement when due, such amount shall for purposes hereof and thereof be deemed due and payable by Parent upon written notice from Seller to Parent demanding payment thereof. The liability of Parent under this Section 10.17 for the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (i) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Buyer or such Affiliates, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Buyer, such Affiliates or their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of Buyer or such Affiliates; or (ii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by Seller, Buyer or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 10.17, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Parent’s obligations hereunder.

10.17.2 Parent hereby waives (a) notice of acceptance of the guarantee provided in this Section 10.17, (b) presentment and demand of the Guaranteed Obligations, (c) notice of or proof of reliance by Parent upon this Section 10.17 and (d) any right to require that any action be brought against Buyer or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations prior to any action against Parent under this Section 10.17.

10.17.3 Parent’s obligations under this Section 10.17 are continuing and shall remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, shall be binding upon Parent and its successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Seller and its successors and permitted assigns.

10.17.4 Parent hereby represents and warrants to Seller as follows: (a) Parent is a legal entity organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of Canada and (b) Parent has the requisite corporate or other entity power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated to be consummated by it by this Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Xxxxx and the consummation of the transactions contemplated to be consummated by it by this Agreement have been duly authorized by the necessary corporate or other entity actions of Parent. Parent has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and this Agreement (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by each other Party) constitutes the valid and legally binding obligations of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.
