Section 2.9 Adjustment to Base Purchase Price. (a) Section 2.9 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth a calculation of the Working Capital, the Cash Amounts and the Funded Debt of the Purchased Entities and Purchased Consolidated Ventures, in each case, as of the Balance Sheet Date (the “Sample Closing Statement”), including the classification of asset and liability line items and general ledger accounts. The Sample Closing Statement has been prepared (i) in accordance with GAAP, (ii) consistent with the accounting principles, practices, methodologies and policies that were employed in preparing the Business Financial Statements and (iii) as modified by the accounting principles set forth on Section 2.9 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (the principles, practices, methodologies and policies set forth in clauses (i) through (iii), collectively, the “Transaction Accounting Principles”).

(b) At least five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Seller shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Purchaser a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth a good-faith estimate of (i) the Adjustment Amount (such estimate, the “Estimated Adjustment Amount”), (ii) the Closing Cash Amounts (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Cash Amounts”), and (iii) the Closing Funded Debt (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Funded Debt”). The Closing Statement shall set forth the calculations of such amounts in a manner consistent with the Sample Closing Statement and be prepared in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, including the use of the same line items and line item entries, set forth on and used in the preparation of the Sample Closing Statement; provided that assets newly acquired and liabilities newly incurred following the date of the Sample Closing Statement that cannot be appropriately placed in line items previously used by Seller, but that constitute Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities, will also be included to the extent consistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles. In the event that, no fewer than two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Purchaser notifies Seller of any errors that Purchaser believes are contained in such Estimated Adjustment Amount, Estimated Closing Cash Amounts and/or Estimated Closing Funded Debt, Seller shall in good faith consider Purchaser’s

-27-

comments relating to such errors and, if Seller agrees that there are errors, make amendments to such Estimated Adjustment Amount, Estimated Closing Cash Amounts and/or Estimated Closing Funded Debt to correct such errors. Subject to any such adjustments, the Estimated Adjustment Amount, the Estimated Closing Cash Amount and/or the Estimated Closing Funded Debt shall be used to calculate the Closing Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser to Seller at the Closing.

(c) As promptly as reasonably possible and in any event within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and will provide to Seller, a written statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth the Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts and the Closing Funded Debt. The Post-Closing Statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the Purchaser’s calculations of such amounts in the same format as, and in a manner consistent with, the Sample Closing Statement and shall be prepared in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles.

(d) Within forty-five (45) days following receipt by Seller of the Post-Closing Statement, Seller shall deliver written notice to Purchaser of any dispute Seller has with respect to the calculation, preparation or content of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided, that if Seller does not deliver any Dispute Notice to Purchaser within such forty-five (45) day period, the Post-Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. The Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Post-Closing Statement that Seller disputes and (ii) the proposed amount of such item; provided, that Seller may not dispute the accounting principles, practices, methodologies and policies used in preparing the Post-Closing Statement unless they are inconsistent with the Transaction Accounting Principles. Upon receipt by Purchaser of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute set forth therein. If Purchaser and Seller fail to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), then Purchaser and Seller jointly shall engage, within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, Deloitte LLP or, if Deloitte LLP is unavailable or conflicted, another nationally recognized major accounting firm selected jointly by Seller and Purchaser (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve any such dispute; provided, that, if Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree on the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of Seller and Purchaser shall select a nationally recognized major accounting firm, and the two (2) firms will mutually select a third nationally recognized major accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm. As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than fifteen (15) days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, Purchaser and Seller shall each prepare and submit a written presentation detailing each party’s complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue still in dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm (it being understood that the content of each such presentation shall be limited to whether the Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts and the Closing Funded Debt were properly calculated in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles, the proposed resolution of each disputed issue by such party and reasonable supporting detail for the foregoing). Purchaser and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not more than twenty (20) days following such presentations, make a final determination, binding on the parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the

-28-

line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice. With respect to each disputed line item, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Seller or Purchaser, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, in their respective presentations to the Independent Accounting Firm described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to whether any disputed determinations of the Adjustment Amount, the Closing Cash Amounts and the Closing Funded Debt were properly calculated in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by Seller and Purchaser in proportion to the allocation of the dollar value of the amounts in dispute between Seller and Purchaser resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, such that the party prevailing on the greater dollar value of such disputes pays the lesser proportion of the fees and, all determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Post-Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. The parties hereto agree that any adjustment as determined pursuant to this Section 2.9(d) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price, except as otherwise required by Law.

(e) For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.9, each of Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with and promptly make available to each other and their respective Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, in each case to the extent related to the Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities, Business, Purchased Entities or Purchased Consolidated Ventures, and shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Post-Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.

(f) The “Post-Closing Adjusted Purchase Price” shall mean the Base Purchase Price, plus (i) the Closing Cash Amounts, plus (ii) the Adjustment Amount (which may be a positive or negative number), minus (iii) the Closing Funded Debt, in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), as finally determined pursuant to Sections 2.9(c) and 2.9(d), minus (iv) the Estimated Net Pension Underfunding Amount, minus (v) the Closing Retention Amount.

(g) If the Closing Purchase Price shall exceed the Post-Closing Adjusted Purchase Price, then Seller shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such excess to Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Purchaser to Seller; or if the Post-Closing Adjusted Purchase Price shall exceed the Closing Purchase Price, then Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such excess to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller to Purchaser. Any such payment is to be made within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Adjustment Amount, Closing Cash Amounts and Closing Funded Debt are finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, and any amounts owing pursuant to this Section 2.9(g) shall be paid in full.

(h) Promptly following the later of the Closing Date and September 30, 2015, Purchaser and Seller shall jointly engage the Applicable Actuary for each Purchased Company

-29-

Benefit Plan that is a defined benefit plan and jointly instruct the Applicable Actuary to calculate the Pension Underfunding Amount for each such Purchased Company Benefit Plan. Each of Seller and Purchaser may provide to the Applicable Actuaries all information and material relevant to make such calculations and shall provide any other information reasonably requested by the Applicable Actuaries to make such calculations. Seller and Purchaser agree that neither party shall attempt to unilaterally influence or provide unilateral instructions to the Applicable Actuaries, and that the costs and expenses of each Applicable Actuary shall be borne equally by Seller and Purchaser.

(i) Following the engagement of the Applicable Actuaries pursuant to Section 2.9(h), Purchaser and Seller shall instruct each Applicable Actuary to deliver to Seller and Purchaser a complete copy of such Applicable Actuary’s determination of the Pension Underfunding Amount for each applicable Purchased Company Benefit Plan and the relevant information used to arrive at such determination, including participant census data, actuarial assumptions and methodologies (each such determination, a “Pension Accounting Report”). Purchaser may submit any Pension Account Report prepared by the Seller’s Actuary to an actuary selected by Purchaser (the “Purchaser’s Actuary”) for verification. The Purchaser shall pay the cost of the Purchaser’s Actuary. In the event that the Purchaser’s Actuary makes a determination of a Pension Underfunding Amount for an applicable Purchased Company Benefit Plan that is different than the determination made by the Seller’s Actuary, then Purchaser and Seller shall instruct the Seller’s Actuary and the Purchaser’s Actuary to use good-faith efforts to reconcile any difference in their calculations and to arrive at one determination of a Pension Underfunding Amount for such Purchased Company Benefit Plan. If, following such good-faith efforts, the Purchaser’s Actuary and Seller’s Actuary continue to have a different determination of a Pension Underfunding Amount for an applicable Purchased Company Benefit Plan, then: (A) if the difference between Purchaser Actuary’s determination and Seller Actuary’s determination is five percent (5%) or less of Seller Actuary’s determination, then the Pension Underfunding Amount for such Purchased Company Benefit Plan shall be the average of the Seller Actuary’s determination and the Purchaser Actuary’s determination; and (B) if the difference between Purchaser Actuary’s determination and Seller Actuary’s determination is more than five percent (5%) of Seller Actuary’s determination, then Seller’s Actuary and the Purchaser’s Actuary shall jointly designate a third independent actuary whose determination shall be final and binding, but such third independent actuary’s determination shall not be greater than Seller Actuary’s determination or less than Purchaser Actuary’s determination. Seller and Purchaser shall each pay one-half the costs of such third actuary. Following the final determination of the Pension Underfunding Amount for each applicable Purchased Company Benefit Plan, Seller and Purchaser shall jointly calculate the Net Pension Underfunding Amount.

(j) The “Final Purchase Price” shall mean the Base Purchase Price, plus (i) the Closing Cash Amounts, plus (ii) the Adjustment Amount (which may be a positive or negative number), minus (iii) the Closing Funded Debt, in each case of clauses (i), (ii) (iii), as finally determined pursuant to Sections 2.9(c) and 2.9(d), minus (iv) the Net Pension Underfunding Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9(i) (which may be a positive number if net underfunded or negative number if net overfunded), minus (v) the Closing Retention Amount.

-30-

(k) If the Post-Closing Adjusted Purchase Price shall exceed Final Purchase Price, then Seller shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such excess to Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Purchaser to Seller; or if the Final Purchase Price shall exceed the Post-Closing Adjusted Purchase Price, then Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such excess to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller to Purchaser. Any such payment is to be made within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Final Purchase Price is determined pursuant to this Section 2.9, except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, and any amounts owing pursuant to this Section 2.9(k) shall be paid in full.

Section 2.10 Purchase Price Allocation. Seller and Purchaser agree to allocate and, as applicable, to cause their relevant Affiliates to allocate, the Final Purchase Price and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes among the Purchased Assets (including among the Purchased Entity Shares and the Purchased Venture Interests) in accordance with Exhibit D attached hereto (the “Allocation Schedule”). No later than ninety (90) days after the date on which the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a proposed allocation of the Final Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes to Seller as of the Closing Date determined in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule, Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Seller’s Allocation”). If Purchaser disagrees with Seller’s Allocation, Seller may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Seller’s Allocation, deliver a notice (the “Purchaser’s Allocation Notice”) to Seller to such effect, specifying those items as to which Purchaser disagrees and setting forth Purchaser’s proposed allocation. If the Purchaser’s Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Seller and Purchaser shall, during the twenty (20) days following such delivery, use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the allocation of the Final Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax Purposes. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve any remaining disputes. Any allocation of the Final Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes determined pursuant to the decision of the Independent Accounting Firm shall incorporate, reflect and be consistent with the Allocation Schedule. The allocation, as prepared by Seller if no Purchaser’s Allocation Notice has been given, as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between Seller and Purchaser or as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm (the “Allocation”), shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. None of Seller or Purchaser shall (and each shall cause its respective Affiliates not to) take any position inconsistent with the Allocation on any Tax Return or in any Tax Proceeding, in each case, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign law).

Section 2.11 Non-Assignment; Consents. (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to sell, assign, transfer or convey any Purchased Asset or to assume an Assumed Liability if an attempted sale, assignment,

-31-

transfer, conveyance or assumption thereof would be prohibited by Law or would, without the approval, authorization or consent of, filing with, notification to, or granting or issuance of any license, order, waiver or Permit by, any third party or Governmental Entity (collectively, “Approvals”), (i) constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or (ii) be ineffective, void or voidable, unless and until such Approval is obtained.

(b) Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained any Approval (other than Regulatory Approvals, which shall be governed by Section 5.1) (“Non-Regulatory Approvals”) required to sell, assign, transfer or convey any Purchased Asset, or to assume any Assumed Liability, prior to the Closing and, continuing for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date. If such Approval is not obtained prior to Closing, until the earlier of (x) such time as such Approval or Approvals are obtained and (y) with respect to a Purchased Asset that is a Contract, the expiration of the term of such Contract in accordance with its current term or the execution of a replacement Contract by Purchaser or its Affiliate, then Seller will implement with Purchaser a “passive” nominee arrangement reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Seller intended to both (x) provide Purchaser, to the fullest extent practicable, the claims, rights and benefits of any such Purchased Assets and (y) cause Purchaser, to the fullest extent practicable, to assume and bear the costs of or under such Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities from and after the Closing in accordance with this Agreement (including by means of any subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing arrangement). In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller will promptly transfer and convey all rights and benefits of such Purchased Asset to Purchaser to the extent permitted, and Purchaser will promptly pay, perform or discharge when due any Liability (other than a Retained Liability) arising thereunder and any such Assumed Liabilities with respect to the Business after the Closing Date. Upon obtaining the relevant Non-Regulatory Approval, Seller shall, and shall cause each applicable Seller Entity to, promptly sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Purchaser such Purchased Asset, and Purchaser shall promptly assume and agree to promptly pay, perform or discharge such Assumed Liability. Seller will, and will cause each Seller Entity to, enforce (at Purchaser’s reasonable direction and expense) the rights granted to Purchaser under this Section 2.11(b) to the extent related to the Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Seller shall not be required to commence litigation against any customer or take any action that would violate any of Seller’s or its Affiliates’ current policies or procedures.

(c) All reasonable and documented third party legal and administrative fees, and other similar costs and expenses, payable in connection with obtaining Non-Regulatory Approvals prior to Closing shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Seller and fifty percent (50%) by the Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall have any obligation under this Agreement or otherwise to pay any consent, approval or waiver “fee”, discount, rebate or any money or other consideration beyond administrative costs, including a de minimis review charge, to any Person or to initiate any claim or proceeding against any Person in order to obtain any Non-Regulatory Approvals.

Section 2.12 Foreign Acquisition Agreements. The transfer of each Purchased Company organized in, or of any other Purchased Assets held as of the Closing by a Seller Entity organized in, the jurisdictions set forth on Section 2.12 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules will be effected pursuant to short-form acquisition agreements (the “Foreign Acquisition Agreements”) on a country-by-country basis. Each Foreign

-32-

Acquisition Agreement for the transfer of Purchased Assets shall be in substantially the same form as the form of Foreign Acquisition Agreement attached as Exhibit E hereto, and each Foreign Acquisition Agreement for the transfer of a Purchased Company shall be in substantially the same form as the form of Foreign Acquisition Agreement attached as Exhibit F hereto, except as Seller and Purchaser may otherwise agree, including for: (i) the deletion of provisions which are inapplicable to such Purchased Company; (ii) such changes as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable local Law; and (iii) such changes as may be reasonably agreed upon by Seller and Purchaser regarding employees and employee benefit matters in order to adapt such agreement to the particular circumstances of the relevant Purchased Company and country; provided, in each case, that the Foreign Acquisition Agreements shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Purchased Company and shall not have any significant effect on the value being received by Purchaser or given by the Seller Entities, including the allocation of assets and Liabilities as between them, all of which shall be determined by this Agreement. From and after the date hereof, Purchaser and Seller shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) use reasonable best efforts to satisfy any requirement under applicable Law to inform and consult with employee representatives, trade unions and/or Business Employees prior to the Closing which arise out of the transactions contemplated by to this Agreement. Each of Purchaser and Seller shall provide the other party with such reasonable cooperation as may be necessary, proper or advisable in relation to such information and consultation procedures.

Section 2.14 French Assets and French Interests. The parties acknowledge that, pursuant to articles L.2323-19, L.2323-6 and L.4612-8 of the French Labor Code, the works’ councils and health and safety committees of the French Entities will need to be informed and consulted in advance of any final decisions being taken by the French Entities (the “Consultation Process”) with respect to the proposed purchase and sale of any Purchased Assets located in France or the Purchased Entity Shares or Purchased Venture Interests of any Purchased Entity or Purchased Venture that owns or controls any Purchased Assets located in France (such proposed Purchased Assets, collectively, the “French Assets,” such Purchased Entity Shares and/or Purchased Venture Interests, collectively, the “French Interests”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless and until Seller has executed and delivered to Purchaser the Acceptance Notice (which shall not occur until the end of the Consultation Process), (a) the provisions of this Article II shall not be effective with respect to the French Assets and the French Interests, (b) for the purpose of this Article II the French Assets and the French Interests shall not be considered Purchased Assets, and (c) the Base Purchase Price shall be reduced by the French Purchase Price. On the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Letter attached as Exhibit G hereto (the “French Offer Letter”), including the price specified therein (the “French Purchase Price”), Purchaser has irrevocably offered to acquire, or to cause its applicable Affiliates to acquire, the French Assets and the French Interests and to have the provisions of this Article II apply to such French Assets and such French Interests following the acceptance by the Seller of the Purchaser’s irrevocable offer as set out in the French Offer Letter (as may be amended by express agreement between the Parties in the event that points arise during the Consultation Process). It is understood that in entering into this Agreement, the Seller is not in any regard bound to accept the Purchaser’s irrevocable offer as set out in the French Offer Letter.

It is understood that the Base Purchase Price assumes delivery of the Acceptance Notice and therefore already includes the French Purchase Price. Seller shall cause its relevant Affiliates to, use its reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with all appropriate requirements and procedures under French Law in connection with the Consultation Process and convene meetings of the appropriate works council as soon as reasonably practicable with a view to obtaining expeditious delivery of the opinion of the works council. Seller shall or shall procure that its relevant Affiliates keep Purchaser reasonably informed of the status of matters relating to the delivery of the opinion of the works council. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall inform Purchaser in writing as soon as possible (and in any event no later than two (2) business days) after the Consultation Process has been completed. Purchaser shall cooperate and use its reasonable best efforts to assist the relevant Affiliates of the Seller (as set forth in Section 5.1(a)) in effecting the Consultation Process, including providing such information (including information in respect of employee benefit plans which may apply to any French Transferred Business Employees) to, and if required attending such meetings with, the works council, in each case as may be required by applicable Law or as may be reasonably requested by Seller on reasonable notice in connection

If required by applicable Law, Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its relevant Affiliate(s) to comply in all material respects with the applicable obligations on the part of an employer pursuant to the Law n° 2014-856 of 31 July 2014 – Loi relative à l’économie sociale et solidaire in relation to mandatory notifications to the employees of such relevant Affiliates of the proposal to sell the shares of the French Purchased Entity and to inform the employees of their right to make an offer in relation to the acquisition of such assets and/or shares.

Purchaser and Seller may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 5.1 as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be) or its legal counsel; provided, that materials provided pursuant to this Section 5.1(b) may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of or future plans for the Business, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual obligations, and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns.

(c) Each of Purchaser and Seller shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, including using reasonable best efforts to take all such further action as may be necessary to resolve such objections, if any, as any Governmental Entity or any other Person may assert under any Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date). Purchaser shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, (i) enter into agreements with respect to, or consummate, any mergers or business combinations, or any acquisition of any other Person or business or (ii) make investments in any other Person, in each case that would reasonably be expected to prevent, or materially impede or materially delay, the consummation of the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser shall proffer to, or agree to, sell, divest, lease, license, transfer, dispose of or otherwise encumber or hold separate before or after the Closing, any assets, licenses, operations, rights, product lines, businesses or interests therein of the Business (or to consent to any sale, divestiture, lease, license, transfer, disposition or other encumbering by the Seller Entities of any of assets of the Business or to any agreement by any of the Seller Entities to take any of the foregoing actions) or to agree to make any material changes (including through a licensing arrangement) or restriction on, or other impairment of Purchaser’s ability to own or operate, of any such assets, licenses, product lines, businesses or interests therein or Purchaser’s ability to vote, transfer, receive dividends, or otherwise exercise full ownership rights with respect to ownership interests in the Business; provided, however, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be required to take any such actions (x) unless any such action is conditioned upon and not effective until (and subject to) Closing, and (y) which, individually or in the aggregate, would have, or would reasonably be expected to have a Business Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be permitted to propose, commit, agree, or submit to (or offer to commit, agree, or submit to) to any such actions, terms or conditions set forth in Section 5.1(c) with any Governmental Entity, or effect any such actions, without the prior written consent of Purchaser. Nothing contained herein shall require Purchaser to take any actions with respect to any of its own businesses, properties or assets (other than the Business).

(d) Whether or not the Transaction is consummated, Purchaser shall be responsible for all fees and payments (including filing fees and legal and professional fees) to any third party or any Governmental Entity in order to obtain any Approvals (other than Non-Regulatory Approvals which are addressed in Section 2.11) pursuant to this Section 5.1, other than the fees of and payments to Seller’s legal and professional advisors.

(e) Any provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, but subject to Section 2.4 hereof, none of Seller, the other Seller Entities or any of their respective Affiliates (including, prior to the Closing, the Purchased Companies) shall under any circumstance be required to pay or commit to pay any amount or incur any obligation in favor of or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any Person to obtain any Approval. None of Seller, the other Seller Entities nor any of their respective Affiliates (including, prior to the Closing, the Purchased Companies) shall have any Liability whatsoever to Purchaser arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any Approvals that may be required in connection with the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the termination of any Contract as a result thereof. Purchaser acknowledges that no representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached solely as a result of (i) the failure to obtain any Approval, (ii) any termination of a Contract as a result of a failure to obtain any Approval, or (iii) any Proceeding commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such Approval or any such termination.

Section 5.3 Confidentiality.

(a) Purchaser and Seller acknowledge that the information being provided to it in connection with the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby is subject to the terms of that certain confidentiality agreement between Purchaser and Seller, dated as of October 1, 2014 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety and shall survive the Closing; provided, that actions taken by the parties hereunder to the extent necessary in order to comply with their respective obligations under Section 5.1 hereunder shall not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 5.3 or the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, that the foregoing shall not affect Section 5.1(b) to the extent that Section 5.1(b) specifies that it is subject to this Section 5.3 or the Confidentiality Agreement. Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate; provided, that Purchaser acknowledges that its obligations of confidentiality and non-disclosure with respect to any and all other information provided to it by or on behalf of Seller, the other Seller Entities, the Purchased Entities or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, concerning Seller, the other Seller Entities or any of their respective Affiliates (other than with respect to the Business and the Purchased Entities) shall continue to remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(b) For three (3) years after the Closing, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ Representatives not to, disclose to any other Person by any means any non-public information of Purchaser and its Affiliates included in the Business (“Business Confidential Information”); provided, that “Business Confidential Information” shall not include information that (i) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Seller, its Affiliates or its and their Representatives, (ii) becomes available to Seller or its Affiliates from a source other than Purchaser, its Affiliates or its Representatives, provided that such source is not known by Seller or its Affiliates, after reasonable inquiry, to be bound by a confidentiality

-59-

agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to Purchaser or its Affiliates or another party, or (iii) has been or is developed by or for Seller or its Affiliates without use of or reference to the Business Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller or its Affiliates may disclose Business Confidential Information (A) to the extent required by Law, in any report, statement, testimony or other submission to any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over Seller or its Affiliates, as applicable, (B) as may be reasonably necessary in connection with any Tax Returns, accounting records or financial reporting obligations or any audit or (C) in order to comply with any Law applicable to Seller or its Affiliates, as applicable, or in response to any request or requirement (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information, summons, subpoena or other legal, regulatory or supervisory process or formal or informal investigative demand issued to Seller or its Affiliates, as applicable) in the course of any litigation, investigation or administrative proceeding; provided, further, that, Seller shall provide Purchaser with prompt prior written notice of such requirement or request so that Purchaser and Purchaser’s Affiliates may obtain a protective order or similar remedy to cause Business Confidential Information not to be disclosed, including interposing all available objections thereto, such as objections based on settlement privilege. If such protective order or other similar remedy is not obtained, Seller or its applicable Affiliates shall furnish only that portion of Business Confidential Information that has been legally compelled, the opinion of Seller’s or its Representatives’ legal counsel, and shall exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain assurance, at Purchaser’s expense, that confidential treatment will be accorded such disclosed Business Confidential Information. For three (3) years after the Closing, Seller hereby agrees, and shall cause its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ Representatives, (I) to protect the Business Confidential Information by using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent the unauthorized disclosure of Business Confidential Information as Seller uses to protect its own confidential information of a like nature and (II) to assign any and all of their rights under any confidentiality agreement relating to the Business with a third party to the Purchaser.

Section 5.4 Access to Information. (a) Seller shall afford to Purchaser and its Representatives reasonable access, upon reasonable notice during normal business hours, consistent with applicable Law and in accordance with the reasonable procedures established by Seller, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Business, during the period prior to the Closing, to the properties, Books and Records and personnel of Seller and its Subsidiaries related to the Business, the Purchased Entities and, to the extent Seller has the right to provide such access, the Purchased Consolidated Ventures; provided, that (i) neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to violate any obligation of confidentiality to which it or any of its Affiliates may be subject in discharging their obligations pursuant to this Section 5.4(a); (ii) Seller shall provide, or cause its Subsidiaries to provide, Purchaser with reasonable access to the personnel files of any Current Business Employee (or any other person who would be a Business Employee at Closing), but only as permitted by Seller’s procedures on data privacy and personally identifiable information, and (iii) prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall not conduct any Phase II Environmental Site Assessment or conduct any invasive testing or any sampling of soil, sediment, surface water, ground water or building material at, on, under or within any facility on the Transferred Leased Property, or any other property of Seller, the other Seller Entities, the Purchased Entities or any of their respective Affiliates.

(b) Purchaser agrees that any investigation undertaken pursuant to the access granted under Section 5.4(a) shall be conducted in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere

-60-

with the operation of the Business, and none of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Representatives shall communicate with any of the employees of the Business without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where, (i) upon the advice of counsel, such access or disclosure would jeopardize attorney client privilege or disclosure would contravene any Laws (unless Purchaser has offered a joint defense agreement or other agreement that preserves attorney-client privilege) or (ii) upon Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, would violate any obligation of confidentiality.

(c) At and after the Closing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, afford Seller, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives, during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Business, access to the properties, books, Contracts, records and employees of the Business and the Purchased Entities to the extent that such access may be reasonably requested by Seller, including in connection with financial statements, taxes, reporting obligations and compliance with applicable Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where, upon the advice of counsel, such access or disclosure would contravene any Laws.

(d) Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to hold all the books and records of the Business existing on the Closing Date for a period of eight (8) years from the Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by Law.

Section 5.5 Publicity. No party to this Agreement nor any Affiliate or Representative of such party shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or public announcement, or publish any investor presentation publicly, in respect of this Agreement, the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party hereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as may be required by Law or stock exchange rules.

Section 5.6 Intercompany Accounts and Intercompany Arrangements. Immediately prior to the Closing but effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Effective Time”), all intercompany balances and accounts between Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Companies), on the one hand, and the Purchased Companies, on the other hand (“Intercompany Accounts”) (other than the balances and accounts in connection with the Affiliated Account-Level Service Contracts described in clauses (x) or (y) of Section 2.4(b)(iii), the Pre-Closing Assumed Affiliated Account Service Agreement, arising out of the Intercompany Agreements set forth on Section 5.6 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules or as otherwise set forth in the Transaction Accounting Principles (collectively, the “Continuing Intercompany Accounts”)), shall be settled or otherwise eliminated such that no Purchased Entity shall have any continuing obligation with respect thereto and otherwise in such a manner as the Seller Entities shall determine in good faith (including by the Seller Entities or any of their Affiliates removing from any Purchased Entity prior to the Effective Time all Cash Amounts or funds from cash pools by means of dividends, distributions, contribution, the creation or repayment of intercompany debt,

-61-

increasing or decreasing of cash pool balances or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, intercompany balances and accounts solely among any of the Purchased Companies shall not be affected by this provision. Immediately prior to the Closing but effective as of the Effective Time, and subject to the proviso in this sentence, all arrangements, understandings or Contracts, including all obligations to provide goods, services or other benefits, between the Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Companies), on the one hand, and the Purchased Entities, on the other hand (“Intercompany Arrangements”), shall be terminated without further payment or performance and cease to have any further force and effect, such that no party thereto shall have any further obligations therefor or thereunder (such Intercompany Arrangements that are required to be terminated pursuant to this Section 5.6, the “To-Be-Terminated Intercompany Arrangements”); provided, that the following Intercompany Arrangements shall not be terminated, and the Terminated Intercompany Arrangement shall not include: (i) any Affiliated Account-Level Service Contracts described in clauses (x) or (y) of Section 2.4(b)(iii); (ii) any Affiliated Account-Level Service Contract entered into following the date hereof and prior to the Closing with the consent of Purchaser or as permitted by Section 5.2(b)(xx)(B) (each such Contract described by clause (ii), a “Pre-Closing Assumed Affiliated Account Service Agreement”); (iii) the Transaction Documents to be entered into in connection with this Agreement; and (iv) any other Intercompany Arrangement set forth on Section 5.6 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

(a) Continuation of Employment. As of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (i) cause each of the Purchased Companies to continue to employ on the Closing Date its respective Purchased Company Employees, and (ii) with respect to each other Business Employee, either (A) continue to employ such other Business Employee, to the extent employment continues by operation of Law, or (B) offer, or cause its applicable Affiliate to offer, employment to such other Business Employee, to the extent employment does not continue by operation of Law, in all cases, on terms consistent with this Section 5.7. Each Seller Entity and its Subsidiaries shall cooperate with Purchaser to make reasonably accessible to Purchaser each applicable Business Employee to assist Purchaser in its efforts to secure offers of employment with such Business Employee. Each Purchased Company Employee, each other Business Employee whose employment continues by operation of Law, and each Business Employee who accepts Purchaser’s offer of employment pursuant to either this Section 5.7(a) or Section 5.7(f) and who actually commences employment with Purchaser or one of its Affiliates upon the Closing shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Business Employee.” Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, from and after the Closing, Seller and its Affiliates shall retain all Liabilities under Seller Benefit Plans pursuant to Section 2.7(e) and those expressly set forth in Section 2.7(g), and Purchaser and its Affiliates shall assume or retain, as applicable, all Liabilities under Purchased Company Benefit Plans pursuant to Section 2.6(e).

(b) Terms and Conditions of Employment. With respect to each Transferred Business Employee who is not covered by a collective bargaining or other labor Contract and whose name is not set forth on Section 5.7(b)(i) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, Purchaser shall (i) maintain, for a period of at least twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, annual total target compensation and employee benefits that are substantially comparable in the aggregate

-62-

as those in effect for such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing (provided, that (A) the wage rate or base salary level for such Transferred Business Employee shall be no less than the wage rate or base salary level in effect for such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing, and (B) the target annual cash bonus opportunity for such Transferred Business Employee shall be no less favorable than that in effect for such Transferred Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing); and (ii) offer or initially provide employment at a location as set forth in Section 5.7(b)(ii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the compensation, benefits and work location of (1) Transferred Business Employees who are covered by a collective bargaining or other labor Contract shall be provided in accordance with the applicable Contract and (2) Transferred Business Employees who are International Business Employees shall additionally be subject to Section 5.7(k)(i) and (ii). As of and after the Closing, Purchaser shall provide to each Transferred Business Employee service credit for all purposes under any Purchased Company Benefit Plan and each other employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in which such Transferred Business Employee is entitled to participate for such Transferred Business Employee’s service prior to the Closing with Seller or any of its Affiliates, to the same extent such service is recognized by Seller and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Closing; provided that such service shall not be credited for purposes of benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan or to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits.

(c) Health Coverages. With respect to each Transferred Business Employee primarily employed in the United States, Purchaser shall cause each group health plan or plans maintained by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, to the extent that such group health plan is made available to such Transferred Business Employee and his or her eligible dependents after the Effective Time, to (i) not limit or exclude coverage on the basis of any preexisting condition of such Transferred Business Employee or dependent (other than any limitation already in effect under the applicable group health Benefit Plan) or on the basis of any other exclusion or waiting period not in effect under the applicable group health Benefit Plan, and (ii) provide such Transferred Business Employee full credit under Purchaser’s or such Affiliate’s group health plans, for the year in which the Closing Date occurs, for any deductible or co-payment already incurred by the Transferred Business Employee under the applicable group health Benefit Plan and for any other out-of-pocket expenses that count against any maximum out-of-pocket expense provision of the applicable group health Benefit Plan or Purchaser’s or such Affiliate’s group health plans.

(d) Severance. Without limiting Section 5.7(k)(ii), Purchaser and its Affiliates shall assume any Liability in respect of any severance benefits or other obligations (including such benefits required under applicable Laws) (i) payable at or following the Closing to any Business Employee who is a Purchased Company Employee or whose employment continues by operation of Law, (ii) payable at or following the Closing to any Business Employee (other than a Business Employee who is either a Purchased Company Employee or whose employment continues by operation of Law) who does not receive a qualifying offer of employment from Purchaser made in accordance with Section 5.7(a) (or, if applicable, Section 5.7(f)) and Section 5.7(b), or (iii) that arises as a result of a Transferred Business Employee’s termination of employment with Seller and its Affiliates and the transfer of the employment of such Transferred Business Employee to Purchaser or its Affiliates, and Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to reimburse and otherwise indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates (including the other Seller Entities) and their respective Affiliates for all such severance benefits or other

-63-

obligations; provided, that, if such reimbursement obligation arises with respect to any Business Employee who received an offer of employment from Purchaser or one of its Affiliates made in accordance with Section 5.7(a) (or, if applicable, Section 5.7(f)) and Section 5.7(b) and who did not accept such offer and become a Transferred Business Employee, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall only be liable to reimburse and otherwise indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the aggregate severance benefits and other obligations of Seller and its Affiliates to such Business Employee. With respect to each Transferred Business Employee whose employment is terminated by Purchaser or its Affiliates without Cause during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide such Transferred Business Employee with severance benefits that are at least equal in value to the severance benefits determined in accordance with the policy set forth on Section 5.7(d) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, taking into account such Transferred Business Employee’s service with Seller and its Affiliates prior to the Closing and with Purchaser and its Affiliates on and after the Closing.

(e) Accrued Vacation, Salary, Expenses, Sick Leave and Personal Time. Purchaser will recognize and assume all Liabilities with respect to accrued but unused vacation time for all Transferred Business Employees (including, without limitation, any Liabilities to Transferred Business Employees for payments in respect of earned but unused vacation time that arise as a result of the transfer of employment contemplated by this Section 5.7). Seller or its Affiliates shall be responsible for making payments to any Transferred Business Employees in respect of earned but unused vacation time, earned but unpaid base salary or base wages and unreimbursed business expenses incurred through the Closing, in each case, that become due as a result of the transfer of employment contemplated by this Section 5.7. Purchaser shall allow Transferred Business Employees to use the vacation, sick leave and personal time recognized or established in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 5.7(e) in accordance with the terms of Purchaser’s and its applicable Affiliates’ vacation plans or policies (in addition to, and not in lieu of, any vacation accrued under the applicable vacation plans or policies of Purchaser or its Affiliates on or following the Closing).

(f) Disability Benefits. Seller shall be responsible for providing short-term disability benefits to any Business Employee who was on short-term disability leave immediately prior to the Closing Date. If any Business Employee who is receiving short-term disability benefits as of the Closing Date is, within six (6) months following the Closing Date, able to return to work, Purchaser shall offer employment to such employee on terms consistent with those applicable to Transferred Business Employees generally under this Section 5.7. Purchaser shall return to work any inactive employee of the Business who is subject to a collective bargaining or other labor Contract and who is receiving short- or long-term disability benefits as of the Closing Date, but who subsequently becomes able to return to work within the period provided in the collective bargaining or other labor Contract that applied to him or her immediately prior to the Closing Date. Each such individual shall become a Transferred Business Employee only upon returning to work with Purchaser or one of its Affiliates; provided, that, to the extent applicable Law requires that any such individual become a Transferred Employee on the Closing Date or any date that is earlier than as otherwise described above, such individual shall become a Transferred Employee on such date.

(g) 401(k) Plan. Effective at the Closing, Purchaser shall establish participation by the Transferred Business Employees in Purchaser’s U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plan or plans (the “Purchaser 401(k) Plan”) for the benefit of each Transferred Business Employee who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, was eligible to participate in a U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by Seller or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller 401(k) Plans”). Seller shall cause each Transferred Business Employee who was participating in the Seller 401(k) Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date and who had an account balance in excess of $0.01 in the Seller 401(k) Plans as of the Closing Date to be fully vested in such account at the Closing Date. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the Seller 401(k) Plans shall, to the extent permitted by Section 401(k)(10) of the Code, make distributions available to Transferred Business Employees, and the Purchaser 401(k) Plan shall accept any such distribution (excluding loans) as a rollover contribution if so directed by the applicable Transferred Business Employee.

(h) Flexible Spending Accounts. Seller and Purchaser shall take all actions necessary or appropriate so that, effective as of the Closing Date, (i) the account balances (whether positive or negative) (the “Transferred FSA Balances”) under the applicable flexible spending plan of Seller or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller FSA Plan”) of the Transferred Business Employees who are participants in the Seller FSA Plan shall be transferred to one or more comparable plans of Purchaser (collectively, the “Purchaser FSA Plan”); (ii) the elections, contribution levels and coverage levels of such Transferred Business Employees shall apply under the Purchaser FSA Plan in the same manner as under the Seller FSA Plan; and (iii) such Transferred Business Employees shall be reimbursed from the Purchaser FSA Plan for claims incurred at any time during the plan year of the Seller FSA Plan in which the Closing Date occurs that are submitted to the Purchaser FSA Plan from and after the Closing Date on the same basis and the same terms and conditions as under the Seller FSA Plan. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the amount of the Transferred FSA Balances is determined, Seller shall pay Purchaser the net aggregate amount of the Transferred FSA Balances, if such amount is positive, and Purchaser shall pay Seller the net aggregate amount of the Transferred FSA Balances, if such amount is negative.

(i) Annual Bonuses. (1) At or prior to Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a schedule (the “Annual Bonus Schedule”) setting forth the prorated annual bonus amount that each Transferred Business Employee would be eligible to receive under any Benefit Plan in respect of Seller’s fiscal year in which the Closing occurs (a “Prorated Bonus Amount”), calculated in accordance with this Section 5.7(i). The Prorated Bonus Amount for each applicable Transferred Business Employee shall be computed as follows: (A) if the Closing occurs on or prior to October 1, 2015, then the determination of the Prorated Bonus Amount shall be based upon actual performance determinations made by Seller consistent with the past practice of the Business, and adjusted for any non-ordinary course adjustments made by Seller in a manner consistent with the determination of annual bonuses for Seller’s other businesses, and (B) if the Closing occurs after October 1, 2015, then the determination of the Prorated Bonus Amount shall be based upon target performance, in each case, prorated for the portion of Seller’s fiscal year through the Closing. On the Closing Date, Seller or its applicable Affiliate shall pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to the aggregate Prorated Bonus Amounts set forth on the Annual Bonus Schedule.

(2) If the Closing occurs on or prior to October 1, 2015, then no later than thirty (30) days following the Closing, Purchaser or its applicable Affiliate shall pay to each Transferred Business Employee (regardless of whether such Transferred Business Employee is then employed by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) the Prorated Bonus Amount set forth opposite such Transferred Business Employee’s name on the Annual Bonus Schedule.

-65-

(3) If the Closing occurs after October 1, 2015, Seller or its applicable Affiliate shall, on or prior to the Closing Date, pay an annual bonus in respect of Seller’s 2015 fiscal year to each Transferred Business Employee who is eligible to receive an annual bonus under any Benefit Plan pursuant to the terms thereof (which bonus shall be determined based on actual performance determinations made by Seller consistent with the past practice of the Business, and adjusted for any non-ordinary course adjustments made by Seller in a manner consistent with the determination of annual bonuses for Seller’s other businesses) and Seller will deliver a schedule at Closing of the amounts paid.

(4) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.7(b), if the Closing occurs after October 1, 2015, then on the date on which Purchaser or its applicable Affiliate pays any annual bonus (or portion thereof) for the bonus year in which the Closing occurs pursuant to the terms of Purchaser’s or its applicable Affiliate’s annual bonus plan, Purchaser or its applicable Affiliate shall pay to each Transferred Business Employee (regardless of whether such Transferred Business Employee is then employed by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates), the Prorated Bonus Amount set forth opposite such Transferred Business Employee’s name on the Annual Bonus Schedule.

(5) In the event of a disagreement between Seller and Purchaser as to whether Seller has complied with its obligations under Section 5.7(i)(1) or the first sentence of Section 5.7(i)(3), the Vice Chairman of Seller and the Chief Financial Officer of Purchaser shall discuss in good faith the resolution of such disagreement.

(j) Collective Bargaining Agreements. Purchaser agrees that as of and following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall recognize the unions and works councils that are signatories to the collective bargaining or other labor Contracts covering Transferred Business Employees as the representatives of the Transferred Business Employees of the bargaining units described therein. Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate to fulfill their respective obligations, and shall cause each of their Affiliates to cooperate to fulfill each of their respective obligations, to inform and consult, under applicable law or governing agreements, with any employee representative bodies (including any labor organizations or works councils) that represent Business Employees affected by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(k) Treatment of International Business Employees. The following terms and conditions shall, in addition to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 5.7, apply to International Business Employees who become Transferred Business Employees (“Transferred International Business Employees”):

(i) In the case of Transferred International Business Employees, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall, in addition to meeting the applicable requirements of this Section 5.7, comply with any additional obligations or standards arising under applicable Laws or Contracts governing the terms and conditions of their employment or severance of employment in connection with the Transaction or otherwise.

-66-

(ii) In the event that Purchaser and its Affiliates, with respect to any Transferred International Business Employee, either (A) do not provide a mirror benefit plan that is of substantial equivalence to the provisions that are in effect as of immediately prior to the Closing under each International Benefit Plan that is not a Purchased Company Benefit Plan in which such Transferred International Business Employee was covered or eligible for coverage immediately prior to the Closing, or (B) amend or otherwise modify at or after the Closing any such mirror benefit plan or other term or condition of employment applicable to such Transferred International Business Employee immediately prior to the Closing, which, in either case of clause (A) or (B), results in any obligation, contingent or otherwise, of Seller or its Affiliates to pay any severance or other benefits (including such benefits required under applicable Laws) to any Transferred International Business Employee or any additional Liability incurred by Seller and its Affiliates in connection therewith, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reimburse and otherwise indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates (including the Seller Entity) and their respective Affiliates for all such severance and other benefits.

(iii) In the case of any Benefit Plan that is not a Purchased Company Benefit Plan, Seller or its Affiliates, as the case may be, shall take any necessary actions to cause, effective as of the Closing, each Purchased Company and any International Business Employees and former international employees of the Business (and their respective eligible dependents and beneficiaries) who are participating in any Benefit Plan, to cease participation in such Benefit Plan.

(iv) In respect of any Purchased Company Benefit Plan applicable in Germany or Switzerland, Parties agree to cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to (A) establish any arrangements to transfer (I) the assets of the applicable Seller Entity in any pension funds (“Pensionskassen,” “Pensionsfonds” or “Unterstützungskasse”), (II) with respect to any Purchased Company Benefit Plan in Germany, any direct insurances (“Direktversicherungen”), and (III) any pension assets in Contractual Trust Agreements to Purchaser and (B) obtain any consents of applicable plan trustees and plan administrators that either party reasonably considers necessary or desirable in connection with such transfer; provided, however, that such transfer shall not include pensions of (x) any employee other than a Transferred Business Employee and (y) pension obligations that are required by applicable Law to remain with the applicable Seller Entity.

(v) Seller and its Affiliates shall procure that (A) at or prior to the Closing, the Purchased Company Benefit Plan referred to as the “Xxxxxxx Controls UK Pension Scheme” in Section 3.15(a)(i) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (the “New UK Plan”)

-67-

is established in accordance with the terms and conditions previously made available to Purchaser, and (B) a transfer to the New UK Plan of the assets and liabilities as made available to Purchaser prior to Closing is made at or prior to the Closing.

(vi) Immigration Compliance. Subject to applicable Law, Purchaser agrees that, from and after the Closing, it will, or will cause its applicable Affiliate to, continue to process and support green card or similar applications that are in process in respect of Business Employees as of the Closing Date.

(l) WARN Act Compliance. Seller shall provide to Purchaser at the Closing a complete and accurate list of all “employment losses” within the Business, as that term is defined in the WARN Act which occurred in the 90 calendar days preceding the Closing, which list shows the name, date of separation, reason for separation, and facility or operating unit of each employee of the Business who suffered such an employment loss in such period (the “WARN List”). Seller (or the applicable Seller Entity) shall give all necessary WARN Act notices with respect to employment losses that occur prior to the Closing Date with respect to any employees employed within the Business (it being understood that it shall not be a violation of such obligation if the underlying notice would not have been required but for terminations effectuated following the Closing), and shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all liabilities and expenses (including court costs, attorneys’ fees and interest) arising out of the failure of Seller to give effective notice pursuant to WARN (unless the underlying notice would not have been required but for terminations effectuated following the Closing). Purchaser shall give all necessary WARN Act notices with respect to any employment losses among the Business Employees that occur on or after the Closing Date, and will indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all liabilities and expenses (including court costs, attorneys’ fees and interest) in the event Purchaser’s actions in ordering employment losses among the Business Employees on or after the Closing result in a retroactive requirement under the WARN Act that Seller should have given such WARN Act notice prior to the Closing Date.

(m) Reimbursement of Certain Multiemployer Plan Liabilities.

(i) Seller shall reimburse Purchaser and its ERISA Affiliates for any amounts paid by any of them to a Specified Business Multiemployer Plan in respect of (x) any Business Employee who is listed on a schedule, which schedule Seller shall provide to Purchaser immediately prior to the Closing Date or (y) any individual who fills the position of any of the Business Employees so listed (each, an “MEP Employee”), to satisfy: (A) any assessment made against Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates under Section 432(c) of the Code or Section 305(c) of ERISA in respect of an MEP Employee’s participation in such Specified Business Multiemployer Plan; (B) any assessment made against Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates under Section 432(e) of the Code or Section 305(e) of ERISA, including any surcharge assessed under Section 432(e)(7) of the Code or Section 305(e)(7) of ERISA in respect of an MEP Employee; or (C) any assessment of Withdrawal Liability made against Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates in respect of an MEP Employee’s participation in such Specified Business Multiemployer Plan.

-68-

(ii) To the extent that any assessment described in Section 5.7(m)(i) above that is received by Purchaser or one of its ERISA Affiliates is made in respect of a group that includes both individuals who are MEP Employees and individuals who are not MEP Employees, the amount of reimbursement due from the Seller to Purchaser will be equal to the portion of such assessment that is attributable to individuals who are MEP Employees, determined in accordance with the methodology applied by the applicable Specified Business Multiemployer Plan to determine the aggregate amount of the assessment in respect of such group of individuals.

(iii) Any reimbursement due from the Seller to Purchaser or any of its ERISA Affiliates pursuant to this Section 5.7(m) shall be paid no later than thirty (30) Business Days following written notification to Seller by Purchaser of an applicable payment to a Specified Business Multiemployer Plan by Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates, accompanied by detail sufficiently (in the reasonable determination of Seller) identifying the amount of such payment and the manner in which such amount was computed. In addition, Seller’s obligation to reimburse Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates for any payment described in this Section 5.7(m) shall be contingent on (A) Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates providing Seller with a copy of the Specified Business Multiemployer Plan’s notice of the applicable assessment promptly following receipt thereof and prior to the payment by Purchaser or its ERISA Affiliates of any or all of such assessed amount, and (B) Purchaser’s and its ERISA Affiliates’ cooperating with Seller (including providing such information, and delaying payment of such assessed amount, as Seller may reasonably request) in disputing such assessed amount if Seller reasonably determines that the amount assessed may be in error. Purchaser shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and any applicable collective bargaining Contract, make replacement hires or transfers in respect of the Business Employees listed on the schedule referred to in Section 5.7(m)(i) in a manner that does not result in such replacement hires or transfers participating in the applicable Specified Business Multiemployer Plan.

(iv) For purposes of this Agreement, “Specified Business Multiemployer Plans” means the Business Multiemployer Plans set forth in Section 5.7(m)(iv) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

(n) Tax Withholding Obligations.

Subject to clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 5.7(o)(i), Purchaser shall pay the portion of each such retention bonus that (x) is earned because a participant was employed on the Closing Date, with payment being made no later than 30 days following the Closing Date (it being understood that Purchaser shall review and update the Retention Schedule following the Closing Date to remove participants who forfeited their rights to payment because they were not employed on the Closing Date) (the aggregate amount so payable pursuant to this clause (x) following such review and update, the “Closing Retention Amount”), and (y) with respect to the participants entitled to receive a payment at the first anniversary under the Retention Program as set forth on the Retention Schedule, is earned because a participant was employed on the first anniversary of the Closing Date or experienced a qualifying termination under the terms of the Retention Program (or under a Purchaser Substitute Retention Arrangement, as defined below, so long as the termination would also have been a qualifying termination under the terms of the Retention Program), with payment being made no later than 30 days following the first anniversary of the Closing Date.

(ii) If, prior to or following the Closing Date, Purchaser or one of its Affiliates enters into an employment offer letter or other agreement or arrangement with any participant in the Retention Program that supersedes any of the terms of the Retention Program applicable to such participant (a “Purchaser Substitute Retention Arrangement”), such Purchaser Substitute Retention Arrangement shall contain a written waiver, in the form approved by Seller prior to the date hereof, of such individual’s rights under the Retention Program.

(iii) Purchaser shall, promptly following the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date, provide Seller with an updated Retention Schedule that will remove any participant who forfeited the right to receive his or her post-closing retention amount because he or she experienced a disqualifying termination (as defined under the terms of the Retention Program) prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date (and the corresponding amount so forfeited). Promptly following the receipt of the updated Retention Schedule, Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the sum of all “post-closing retention amounts” set forth on such updated Retention Schedule opposite the names of the participants listed therein. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates for any and all Liabilities of Seller or its Affiliates to the extent arising out of or relating to the Retention Program with respect to the individuals set forth on the Retention Schedule, whether arising prior to, at or after the Closing; provided, that Purchaser’s aggregate liability to Seller and its Affiliates pursuant to this provision shall not exceed the sum of the Closing Retention Amount plus the aggregate amount paid by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.7(o)(iii).

Without limiting the generality of Section 10.4, the provisions of this Section 5.7 are solely for the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and no current or former employee, director or independent contractor or any other individual associated therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary nothing herein shall be construed as the establishment or adoption of, or an amendment to, any Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit plan for any purpose, or otherwise limit the right of Seller, Purchaser or their respective Affiliates, to amend, modify or terminate any such Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan in accordance with its terms and applicable Law, and no Person participating in any such Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan shall have any claim or cause of action in respect of any provisions of this Agreement as it relates to any such Benefit Plan or employee benefit plan or otherwise.

Purchaser further agrees that to the extent Seller or any of its Affiliates is required to make any payment or incurs any cost or expense, in connection with such Credit Enhancements on or after the Closing with respect to any Assumed Liability, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates against, and reimburse Seller and its Affiliates for, any and all amounts paid, including costs or expenses in connection with such Credit Enhancement, including Seller’s and any of its Affiliates’ reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket expenses in maintaining such Credit Enhancements, whether or not any such Credit Enhancement is drawn upon or required to be performed and shall in any event promptly and in no event later than five (5) Business Days after written demand therefor from Seller, reimburse Seller and any of its Affiliates to the extent that any Credit Enhancement is called upon and Seller or any of its Affiliates makes any payment in respect of any such Credit Enhancement.

The rights granted pursuant to this Section 5.16(b) are collectively referred to herein as the “Retained Intellectual Property License.”

(c) Beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the two (2) year anniversary of such date (as it may be extended from time to time pursuant to this Section 5.16(c), the “Specified Intellectual Property License Period”), Seller and its Affiliates hereby grant to Purchaser and its Affiliates (whether now existing or hereafter created or acquired, including each Purchased Company, a non-exclusive, non-sublicenseable (except to vendors, consultants, contractors and suppliers, in connection with the provision of services to the Business, and distributors, customers and end-users of the Business, but not for the independent use by such third parties), world-wide right and license to the Specified Intellectual Property, solely for use in the Purchaser Field of Use, including the rights to make, have made, use, sell, have sold, offer for sale or import products and services in the Purchaser Field of Use.

During the Specified Intellectual Property License Period, Seller shall maintain and support the Specified Intellectual Property in a manner consistent with past practice. Prior to the expiration of the Specified Intellectual Property License Period, Seller and Purchaser shall mutually agree whether to extend the Specified Intellectual Period for an additional one (1) year term (and shall repeat such mutual determination prior to the end of each such additional year). At the expiration of the Specified Intellectual Property License Period, (i) Seller shall no longer have any obligation to support or maintain the Specified Intellectual Property and (ii) the license to the Specified Intellectual Property (including any enhancements, improvements or modifications

-76-

thereof provided by Seller or its Affiliates to Purchaser or its Affiliates during the Specified Intellectual Property License Period) granted to Purchaser and its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 5.16(c) shall become perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free and fully paid-up. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 5.16(c) are collectively referred to herein as the “Specified Intellectual Property License.”

(d) Without limiting Section 5.16(a), Section 5.16(b) or Section 5.16(c), each licensee and its Affiliates shall have the full and unconditional right with respect to the licensed Intellectual Property covered by such license described in Section 5.16(a), Section 5.16(b) or Section 5.16(c), solely in the field of use covered by such license, to (i) alter or modify the licensed Intellectual Property (including the source code thereof for Software), (ii) prepare derivative works, (iii) duplicate or reproduce the licensed Intellectual Property and (iv) distribute the licensed Intellectual Property among the licensee and its Affiliates. Except as provided in Section 5.16(c), neither licensee (or its Affiliates) shall have any rights to any enhancements, improvements or other modifications to the Business Intellectual Property or the Retained Intellectual Property, as applicable, or any other Intellectual Property made by or on behalf of the licensor (or its Affiliates) after the Closing, and neither licensor (or its Affiliates) shall have any obligation to support or maintain any such Intellectual Property on behalf of the licensee (or its Affiliates) after the Closing. All use of the Business Intellectual Property, the Retained Intellectual Property and the Specified Intellectual Property pursuant to the Business Intellectual Property License, the Retained Intellectual Property License and the Specified Intellectual Property License, respectively, from and after the Closing, shall be on an “AS IS, WHERE IS” basis, with all faults and all express and implied representations and warranties disclaimed, and at each licensee’s sole risk, except, with respect to Purchaser and its Affiliates, for any representations provided in this Agreement or any express written representations made by Seller or its Affiliates to Purchaser and its Affiliates in the course of providing support and maintenance under the Specified Intellectual Property License.

(e) In the event that one or more third parties purchases or acquires (whether by way of merger, asset acquisition, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, consolidation or similar transaction or otherwise) any of Purchaser’s or Seller’s segments, divisions, business or assets (an “Acquiring Party”), Purchaser and its Affiliates or Seller and its Affiliates, as applicable, may assign or sublicense to such Acquiring Party and its Affiliates all or a portion of the Retained Intellectual Property License, the Business Intellectual Property License or the Specified Intellectual Property License, as applicable, related or applicable to such segments, divisions, business or assets, so long as: (i) the assigning party provides the other party with prompt written notice of such transaction; and (ii) the Acquiring Party agrees in writing to be bound by the applicable provisions of this Section 5.16.

(f) The Business Intellectual Property License, the Retained Intellectual Property License and the Specified Intellectual Property License shall each be binding on assignees and transferees of any of the Business Intellectual Property, the Retained Intellectual Property License or the Specified Intellectual Property, as applicable.

Section 5.17 Enterprise Software Licenses. During the period that is no more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to, and no less than ninety (90) days prior to, the expiration of Seller’s obligation, if any, to use enterprise software licenses or other Information Technology

-77-

applications to provide transition services under the Transition Services Agreement, Purchaser shall have the right to provide a list of enterprise software licenses to Seller that Purchaser would like Seller to review to determine if the Seller Entities have the right to grant Purchaser the right to use at the expiration of the Transition Services Agreement. If, and only if, providing a right to Purchaser or its Affiliates to use any such license in connection with the Business (including any assignments of individual user licenses) creates no out-of-pocket cost to the Seller Entities and is permitted under the Contracts governing the Seller Entities’ rights to use such enterprise software licenses, Seller shall grant such rights to use the applicable licenses.

Section 5.18 No Solicitation. From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) discuss, negotiate, undertake, authorize, assist, participate in, recommend, propose or enter into, either as the proposed surviving, merged, acquiring or acquired corporation, any transaction involving a merger, consolidation, business combination, purchase or disposition of all or a substantial portion of the business or assets or equity interests of the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Companies (taken as a whole), other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Acquisition Transaction”), (ii) facilitate, encourage, solicit or initiate discussions, negotiations or submissions of proposals or offers in respect of an Acquisition Transaction, (iii) furnish or cause to be furnished to any Person any information concerning the business, operations, properties or assets of the Business, the Purchased Assets or any of the Purchased Companies in connection with an Acquisition Transaction, or (iv) otherwise assist or participate in, facilitate or encourage, any effort or attempt by any other Person to do or seek any of the foregoing.

Section 5.19 B2B Arrangement; Transition Services Agreement.

(a) Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser have entered into the Alignment Fee Agreement attached hereto as Annex A (the “Alignment Fee Agreement”). Seller and Purchaser agree to the terms of the business-to-business “pull-through” arrangements between the JCI Retained Business and the Business set forth in Exhibit H (the “B2B Arrangement”). From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser shall work in good faith to negotiate, execute and deliver a more detailed agreement memorializing the terms of the B2B Arrangement set forth in Exhibit H and other such terms as may be mutually agreed by Seller and Purchaser. If such agreement is not executed and delivered at or prior to the Closing, the B2B Arrangement as set forth in Exhibit H shall nonetheless continue to be legally binding.

(b) Purchaser and Seller agree that, at Closing, each shall execute and deliver, or cause their applicable Affiliate to execute and deliver, the Transition Services Agreement in the form set forth on Exhibit A hereto, with only such changes as may be agreed by Purchaser and Seller.

Section 5.20 Business Financial Statements. Seller shall, and shall cause the Seller Entities and the Purchased Entities to, use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and deliver to Purchaser, (i) prior to Closing, an unaudited balance sheet and unaudited income statement of the Business as of the end of the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2014, (ii) on or prior to the

-78-

Closing, an unaudited balance sheet and unaudited income statement of the Business as of the end of each calendar quarter commencing with the quarter ending on March 31, 2015 and ending on the last fully completed quarter prior to the Closing, and (iii) on or prior to the later of the Closing and the date that is forty-five (45) days following the end of the fiscal year ending on September 30, 2015, an unaudited balance sheet and unaudited income statement of the Business as of the fiscal year ending on September 30, 2015, in each case prepared in the same format used by Seller and its Affiliates to prepare financial statements of the Business in the ordinary course for use by management of Seller (or such other format as may be mutually agreed by Seller and Purchaser) and in a manner consistent with Section 3.6(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

Section 5.21 Indebtedness.

(a) Following execution of this Agreement, Seller shall provide Purchaser with documentation and other information concerning any additional items of Indebtedness of the type set forth in clauses (c), (d) and (e) of the definition of “Funded Debt” proposed by Seller to be reflected on an amendment of Section 2.6(d) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. Seller and Purchaser shall discuss in good faith whether any such items of Indebtedness will be assumed by Purchaser or one of the Purchased Companies or retained by the Seller or one of its Affiliates (and any limits thereon), it being understood that Purchaser shall not be required to agree to the assumption or retention of any such items of Indebtedness for any reason (other than Indebtedness incurred following the date of this Agreement that Seller is expressly permitted to incur pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(vi)). Any such items of Indebtedness that Seller and Purchaser hereafter agree in writing will be assumed or retained by the Purchaser or one of the Purchased Companies shall constitute “Indebtedness” being assumed pursuant to Section 2.6(d) and shall be added to Section 2.6(d) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. Any such items of Indebtedness as to which such written agreement is not reached shall remain a Retained Liability for purposes hereof.

(b) Prior to or at the Closing, Seller shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, (i) prepay in full all amounts of outstanding Indebtedness of the Purchased Companies of the type set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of the definition of “Funded Debt”, including all principal, fees and expenses with respect thereto, together with all accrued and unpaid interests thereon and (ii) obtain a release of each Purchased Company from the applicable lender with respect to such Indebtedness.

Section 5.22 Leases.

(a) Section 5.22(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth Seller’s good faith determination of: (i) each leasehold interest of Seller, any Purchased Company or each of their respective Affiliates in all real property used in connection with the Business, including any such leasehold interest that is used jointly by the Business and any JCI Retained Business (together with all extensions and modifications thereto, the “Business Leases”); (ii) which Business Leases govern real property that is “substantially GWS only” and will therefore be included in the Purchased Assets (each, a “Transferred Lease”); and (iii) which Business Leases govern real property that is not “substantially GWS only” and will therefore be included in the Excluded Assets (each, a “Retained Lease”). During the one hundred and twenty

-79-

(120) days following the date hereof (the “Lease Determination Period”), Seller shall provide Purchaser with documentation and other information reasonably requested by Purchaser regarding each Business Lease, and Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to determine whether any Business Leases designated by Seller as a Transferred Lease should be redesignated as a Retained Lease or any Business Leases designated by Seller as a Retained Lease should be redesignated as a Transferred Lease (and update Section 5.22(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules accordingly) based on the principle that all Business Leases governing real property where substantially all of the usable space is occupied by Business Employees will be designated Transferred Leases. Purchaser may only not accept a characterization of a Business Lease as a Transferred Lease in good faith for the following reasons: (I) there exists on the real property governed by such Business Lease a previously undisclosed issue relating to Environmental Laws; (II) the rent for such Business Lease is not economic and is not consistent with the Business Financial Statements; (III) substantially all of the usable space was not continuously occupied by Business Employees during the twelve (12)-month period prior to Closing; or (IV) any other reason that is similarly adverse to Purchaser and its Affiliates as clauses (I), (II) or (III). Purchaser may not otherwise fail to accept a characterization of a Business Lease as a Transferred Lease, including, for example, by reason of Purchaser owning or leasing a facility nearby that could accommodate the Business Employees occupying such Business Lease or, subject to clause (II) above, because the Business Lease contains unfavorable or uneconomic terms or conditions.

(b) From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to negotiate, execute (or cause their applicable Affiliates to execute) and deliver a sublease agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to both parties pursuant to which Seller or its applicable Affiliates shall agree to sublease the portion of the Retained Leases set forth on Section 5.22(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules (each, a “Shared Facility”) occupied by Business Employees as of the Closing, (each such sublease, a “Sublease Agreement”) upon mutually agreeable terms and conditions with a rental amount equal to the amount charged by Seller or its Affiliates to the Business as of the Closing for such Shared Facility and consistent with the Business Financial Statements and with a term to be determined by Purchase prior to Closing of either twelve (12) months, fifteen (15) months, or eighteen (18) months, in each case following the Closing Date; provided that (i) any Sublease Agreement governing the Shared Facilities marked with an “*” shall expire at the termination of the applicable Retained Lease, provided that Seller will use good faith efforts to support an extension of such Retained Lease if Purchaser requires it, and (ii) with respect to any Sublease Agreement with respect to any other Shared Facilities, the term of the Sublease Agreement may be longer than eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date if mutually agreed by Seller and Purchaser. If the Sublease Agreement with respect to any Shared Facility is not executed and delivered at or prior to the Closing, each party shall continue to use its reasonable best efforts after the Closing to negotiate, execute (or cause their applicable Affiliates to execute) and deliver such Sublease Agreement as soon as commercially practicable after the Closing, and during any such time after the Closing and before the execution and delivery of such Sublease Agreement, Seller shall provide Purchaser with the benefits and use of the portion of the Shared Facility occupied by Business Employees as of the Closing pursuant to an arrangement reasonably acceptable to both Seller and Purchaser that is consistent with the usage of such portion of the Shared Facility by the Business and the rental costs charged by Seller to the Business as of the Closing. Seller will, at its reasonable expense,

-80-

use commercially reasonable efforts to separate the portion of each Shared Facility governed or to be governed by a Sublease Agreement from the remainder of such Shared Facility, in each case to the extent practicable and permitted by applicable Law.

(c) During the Lease Determination Period, (i) Purchaser may elect, by delivery of written notice to Seller, with respect to any Retained Lease that does not govern a Shared Facility, to continue to use any space used by a Business Employee at the applicable real property as of the Closing Date, at a rental amount equal to the amount charged by Seller or its Affiliates to the Business as of the Closing for such property and consistent with the Business Financial Statements and with a term of no more than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, and (ii) Seller may elect, by delivery of written notice to Purchaser, with respect to any Transferred Lease, to continue to use any space used by an employee of the JCI Retained Business at the applicable real property as of the Closing Date, at a rental amount equal to the amount charged by the Business to Seller and its Affiliates for such property and consistent with the Business Financial Statements and with a term of no more than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (all such space described in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Shared Space”). Purchaser and Seller, as applicable, shall use good-faith efforts to relocate all Business Employees or all employees of the JCI Retained Business, as applicable, from all Shared Space used by such Business Employees or employees, as applicable, as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date. Each of Purchaser or Seller shall be responsible for any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it in relocating its own individuals from any Shared Space, and neither Purchaser nor Seller shall be obligated to pay any rent or other costs with respect to Shared Space from which it has relocated all Business Employees or employees of the JCI Retained Business, as applicable. If a Retained Lease or Transferred Lease governing Shared Space expires prior to twelve (12) months following the Closing Date, and the Business Employees or employees of the JCI Retained Business occupying such Shared Space have not been relocated prior to such expiration, then Purchaser and Seller will use good-faith efforts to relocate such employees into the new facility or facilities occupied by Seller or Purchaser or their respective Affiliates, as applicable, until the end of such twelve-(12)-month period following the Closing Date.

Section 5.23 Substantial Completion of Separation Work. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, at Seller’s costs and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) achieve substantial completion of the Separation Work on or prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) substantially complete the Separation Work in accordance with plans and specifications presented to Purchaser prior to the date of this Agreement. In the event that Seller proposes to materially change the plans and specifications with respect to the Separation Work, Seller shall inform Purchaser prior to making such changes and consult with Purchaser on minimizing the effect of such changes on the substantial completion of the Separation Work. For purposes hereunder, the “Separation Work” shall mean the separation of the personnel and HR systems, applications and computer hardware, data, financial systems, infrastructure, processes and other matters necessary to operate the Business on a standalone basis immediately following the Closing, assuming the provision of the services set forth in the Transition Services Agreement (other than any services therein with respect to the continuation of the Separation Work following the Closing), including the scope of work as set forth in Section 5.23 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending at the Closing,

-81-

Seller shall not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), enter into any agreement for the provision of any services that are contemplated to be provided to the Business under the Transition Services Agreement following the Closing if the service will provided exclusively to the Business (i.e. not provided to Seller or its Affiliates’ other businesses) or is substantially provided only to the Business (i.e., provided substantially to the Business and provided only in an insubstantial manner to Seller’s or its Affiliates’ other businesses). Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to achieve substantial completion of the Separation Work prior to the Closing; provided, that the Closing Date shall not be delayed in the event that the substantial completion of Separation Work is not completed prior to the Closing. During the sixty (60) days following the date hereof, Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to mutually agree on a checklist identifying the key milestones and deliverables defining substantial completion of the Separation Work and shall update the applicable schedule in the Transition Services Agreement defining post-Closing Separation Work and the Information Technology transition services to reflect such mutually agreed milestones and deliverables. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the scope of work set forth in Section 5.23 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, additional work may be required following the Closing in order to achieve separation of the Business, which, to the extent mutually agreed, will be reflected on the checklist and updated schedules to the Transition Services Agreement.

Section 5.24 Cash Amounts. Until the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller any Restricted Cash held by the Purchased Consolidated Companies on the Closing Date and identified at Closing (“Closing Restricted Cash Balances”) to the extent such Closing Restricted Cash Balances remain cash or cash equivalents but no longer constitute Restricted Cash. Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts during such two (2) year period to cause any such Closing Restricted Cash Balances to cease being Restricted Cash and remain cash or cash equivalents. Seller shall use good faith efforts to minimize the Cash Amounts, as of the Closing, of the Purchased Consolidated Companies organized outside of the United States, subject to regulatory and operational requirements.

Purchaser shall not amend or revoke any Combined Tax Return or any Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns (or any notification or election relating thereto) without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). At Seller’s request and expense, Purchaser shall file, or cause to be filed, amended Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns unless (x) such Tax Return reflects a position for which there is not at least a “reasonable basis” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6662-3(b)(3) (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) or (y) such filing would have an adverse effect on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Companies for a Post-Closing Period) that is material (taking into account Tax offsets, credits or other Tax Assets resulting from such filing).

(b) Seller shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared all Tax Returns required to be filed by or with respect to any of the Purchased Entities for any Straddle Period (a “Straddle Period Separate Tax Return”) if the Closing occurs on or before September 1, 2015 and Purchaser shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared all Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns if the Closing occurs after September 1, 2015. All Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (except with respect to any portion of such Tax Return (or any position or election taken or made thereon or relating thereto) relating to any of the transactions contemplated by Section 5.6 or any Pre-Closing Restructuring transaction, which shall be prepared in the manner determined by Seller); provided, that no position shall be taken on any such Straddle Period Separate Tax Return for which there is not at least a “reasonable basis” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6662-3(b)(3) (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law). The party preparing the Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns shall deliver to the other party for its review, comment and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) a copy of such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns at least thirty (30) days prior to

-85-

the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions) and the preparing party shall revise such Straddle Period Separate Tax Return to reflect any reasonable comments received from the other party not later than fifteen (15) days before the due date thereof (taking into account any extensions). Purchaser shall timely file or cause to be timely filed such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns. At Seller’s request and expense, Purchaser shall file, or cause to be filed, amended Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns unless (x) such Tax Return reflects a position for which there is not at least a “reasonable basis” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6662-3(b)(3) (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law) or (y) such filing would have an adverse effect on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Companies for a Post-Closing Period) that is material (taking into account Tax offsets, credits or other Tax Assets resulting from such filing). Purchaser shall not amend or revoke any such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns (or any notification or election relating thereto) without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 6.5 Certain Tax Benefits, Refunds, Credits and Carrybacks (a) If Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Entities and, solely to the extent of the Applicable Percentage of any relevant Tax Benefit, the Purchased Consolidated Ventures) actually realizes a Tax Benefit (determined on a “with and without” basis) as a result of any audit adjustment (or adjustment in any other Tax Proceeding) made with respect to any Tax Item by any Taxing Authority with respect to Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.1, then Purchaser shall pay to Seller the amount of such Tax Benefit within fifteen (15) days of realizing such Tax Benefit; provided, that Purchaser shall not be required to pay any amount of any such Tax Benefit to the extent it exceeds the amount of the relevant Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.1 as a result of such audit adjustment.

(b) Seller shall be entitled to any Tax Benefit actually realized by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Entities and, solely to the extent of the Applicable Percentage of any relevant Tax Benefit, the Purchased Consolidated Ventures) as a result of (i) any loss, obligation, liability or Tax for which (x) Seller is responsible under this Agreement (and for which Seller or any of its Affiliates has indemnified or held harmless Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (whether the relevant payment is made directly to Purchaser or such Affiliate or directly to the relevant third party) under Article VI or Article IX) or (y) Seller or any of its Affiliates has made a payment pursuant to Section 5.7(e), Section 5.7(i), Section 5.7(m) or Section 5.7(o) or (ii) any payment of the Closing Retention Amount by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. To the extent any such Tax Benefit is permitted by Law to be claimed on any Tax Return of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or a Tax Return of a Purchased Entity or Purchased Consolidated Venture, then Purchaser shall claim the relevant Tax Item and pay to Seller the amount of any Tax Benefit actually realized (determined on a “with and without” basis) by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Entities and, solely to the extent of the Applicable Percentage of any such Tax Benefit, the Purchased Consolidated Ventures) resulting from such Tax Item within fifteen (15) Business Days of realizing such Tax Benefit; provided, that Purchaser shall not be required to pay any amount of any such Tax Benefit (x) to the extent it exceeds the amount of the relevant payment and (y) in the case of any such Tax Benefit resulting from a loss, obligation or liability in respect of which Seller is required to make a payment to Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.7(o)(iii), before the Seller makes such payment to Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.7(o)(iii). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not be deemed to have actually realized a Tax Benefit under

-86-

Section 6.5(a) or Section 6.5(b) to extent the relevant Tax Item reduced Taxes for which Seller is responsible pursuant to Section 6.1 and, (ii) Purchaser shall not be required to make duplicative payments with respect to any Tax Item that results in a Tax Benefit or refund under Section 6.5.

(c) Seller shall be entitled to any refunds (including refunds made by way of credit against Tax) with respect to any Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 6.1 (other than any refund (including a refund made by way of credit against Tax) to which Purchaser is entitled under Section 6.5(d)) except to the extent such refund (or such credit) was included as an asset in the calculation of Closing Working Capital on the Post-Closing Statement (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.9(d)). Purchaser shall be entitled to (i) any refunds (including refunds made by way of credit against Tax) of the Purchased Entities of or against any Taxes other than refunds (or credits) to which Seller is entitled pursuant to the foregoing sentence and (ii) any refunds (including refunds made by way of credit against Tax) to which Purchaser is entitled under Section 6.5(d). Any refunds (including refunds made by way of credit against Tax) with respect to Taxes of the Purchased Entities (and the Applicable Percentage of any refunds (including refunds made by way of credit against Tax) with respect to Taxes of the Purchased Consolidated Ventures) for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between Seller and Purchaser in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 6.3 and the first sentence of this Section 6.5(c). Each party shall pay, or cause its Affiliates to pay, to the party entitled to a refund (including a refund made by way of credit against Tax) of Taxes under this Section 6.5(c), the amount of such refund (or such credit) (including any interest paid thereon and net of any additional Taxes or costs to the party receiving such refund (or such credit) in respect of the receipt or accrual of such refund (or such credit)) in readily available funds within fifteen (15) days of the actual receipt of such refund (or such credit) or the application of such refund (or such credit) against amounts otherwise payable. If a party or its Affiliate pays any amounts in respect of any refund or credit to another party pursuant to this Section 6.5(c) and such refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or adjusted by the relevant Taxing Authority, the parties shall promptly make appropriate payments (including in respect of any interest paid or imposed by such Taxing Authority in respect of such adjustment) to reflect such disallowance or adjustment.

(d) Except to the extent required by applicable Law, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Purchased Entities not to (and with respect to the Purchased Ventures, Purchaser shall not consent to or affirmatively authorize such Purchased Venture to), carry back any item of loss, deduction or credit which arises in any taxable period ending on or after the Closing Date (a “Subsequent Loss”) into any taxable period ending before the Closing Date without Seller’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If a Subsequent Loss is carried back into any taxable period ending before the Closing Date in accordance with this Section 6.5(d), Purchaser shall be entitled to any refund of Taxes resulting from any such carry back that it may receive and if such refund is received by Seller or any of its Affiliates, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid such refund (net of any additional costs or Taxes incurred by Seller or its Affiliates in connection with such carryback) to Purchaser to the extent required by, and in accordance with, Section 6.5(c).

Section 6.6 Tax Contests. (a) If any Taxing Authority asserts a Tax Claim, then the party to this Agreement first receiving notice of such Tax Claim promptly shall provide written notice thereof to the other party or parties to this Agreement; provided, that the failure of such party to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its obligations under

-87-

this Article VI, except to the extent that the other party is prejudiced by such failure (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such Tax Claim and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the Taxing Authority.

(b) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any of the Purchased Entities (other than a Tax Proceeding described in Section 6.6(d)), Seller shall have the exclusive right to control such Tax Proceeding to the extent relating to any taxable period ending before the Closing Date; provided, that Seller shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding (or, as applicable, portion thereof) without obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such settlement, compromise or abandonment would have a material adverse impact on Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries for any Post-Closing Period. Seller may elect in writing not to control any Tax Proceeding that Seller otherwise has the right to control pursuant to the preceding sentence. If Seller makes such election with respect to a Tax Proceeding, Purchaser shall have the right and obligation to conduct such Tax Proceeding (subject to Section 6.1(K)), and the requirements contained in the last sentence of Section 6.6(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to Purchaser with respect to such Tax Proceeding (and Seller shall have such consultation, participation, consent and other rights described in the last sentence of Section 6.6(c) with respect to such Tax Proceeding).

(c) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any of the Purchased Entities (other than a Tax Proceeding described in Section 6.6(d)), Seller and Purchaser shall have the right and obligation jointly to conduct, at their own expense (subject to Section 6.1(K) and Section 6.2(H)), such Tax Proceeding to the extent relating to a Straddle Period; provided, that (i) Seller shall have the exclusive right to control the portion of such Tax Proceeding, if any, relating to the treatment of any of the transactions contemplated by Section 5.6 or any pre-closing restructuring transaction (including the Pre-Closing Restructuring), and (ii) the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to sever any such Tax Proceeding into separate Tax Proceedings relating to the Pre-Closing Period and Post-Closing Period, respectively. With respect to the portion of any Tax Proceeding that is jointly controlled, the parties shall cooperate in the conduct of such Tax Proceeding, including by consulting with each other before taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Proceeding, consulting with each other and offering each other the opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Proceeding, defending such Tax Proceeding diligently and in good faith, affording each other the opportunity to participate in any meetings or conferences with the relevant Taxing Authority, and not settling, compromising or abandoning any such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall have the exclusive right to control in all respects, and neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to participate in, any Tax Proceeding with respect to (i) any Tax Return of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Companies); and (ii) any Tax Return of a consolidated, combined or unitary group that includes Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including any Combined Tax Return).

Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), Seller, Purchaser, the Purchased Entities and their respective Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under this Article VI, Section 2.9, Section 5.7(i)(1), Section 5.7(m), Section 5.7(o) and Article IX as an adjustment to the purchase price for U.S. federal, state and local income Tax purposes (and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, all non-U.S. income tax purposes). Seller and Purchaser

-89-

agree to (and to cause their respective Affiliates to) (x) report all payments under this Article VI, Section 2.9, Section 5.7(i)(1), Section 5.7(m), Section 5.7(o) or Article IX (and file all Tax Returns) in accordance with Section 9.9 and (y) not take any position contrary therewith on any Tax Return or in connection with any Tax Proceeding.

In the event that Purchaser (or one of its Affiliates) subsequently receives the benefit of a refund, offset, or credit relating to such Transfer Taxes, Purchaser shall promptly pay to Seller fifty percent (50%) of any such refund, offset, or credit. At the request of Seller, Purchaser shall provide Seller with a reasonably detailed written account of each refund, repayment, or credit of such Transfer Taxes obtained by Purchaser. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Transfer Taxes imposed on the transactions undertaken pursuant to Section 5.6 of this Agreement or the Pre-Closing Restructuring shall be borne solely by Seller.

If any deductions or withholdings are required by Law with respect to any indemnification payment (including for this purpose any payment pursuant to Section 5.7(m) and Section 5.7(o)) made by a party or its applicable Affiliate under Section 5.7(m), Section 5.7(o), this Article VI or Article IX to the other party or its applicable Affiliate, or if the indemnified party is otherwise liable for Tax on the receipt or accrual of any such indemnification payment, or would have been liable for such Tax but for the utilization of any Tax Asset, the indemnifying party shall be liable to pay to the indemnified party such further sums as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received by the indemnified party will equal the full amount which would have been received under the relevant provisions of this Agreement in the absence of any such deductions, withholdings or Tax liabilities.

Section 6.15 Timing of Payments. Any indemnity payment required to be made pursuant to this Article VI shall be made within ten (10) days after the indemnified party makes written demand upon the indemnifying party, but in no case earlier than five (5) days prior to the date on which the relevant Taxes or other amounts are required to be paid to the applicable Taxing Authority.

Section 6.16 Tax Matters Coordination and Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, indemnification for Taxes (other than Section 3.15 Taxes) and the procedures relating thereto shall be governed exclusively by this Article VI and Section 9.9 and the provisions of Article IX (other than Section 9.9) shall not apply. The indemnification obligations contained in this Article VI shall survive the Closing Date until thirty (30) days after the expiration of the applicable statutory periods of limitations.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, and except with respect to indemnification for Taxes (other than Section 3.15 Taxes), which shall be governed exclusively by Article VI, effective as of and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless (or, as applicable, shall cause the relevant Seller Entity to indemnify, defend and hold harmless) Purchaser and its Affiliates, including, from and after Closing, the Purchased Companies (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Covered Losses incurred or suffered by any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, to the extent arising out of or resulting from (i) the failure of any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Article III (other than the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.14 (Taxes), or contained in any certificate delivered

-95-

by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to this Agreement, to be true and correct as of the Closing Date (or with respect to representations and warranties that are made as of a specific date, the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct as of such date); provided, however, that for purposes of this Article IX, all such representations and warranties shall be read without giving effect (other than for purposes of (x) Section 3.6(b), Section 3.7(b), Section 3.11(a) or Section 3.15(a), or (y) reference to the defined term “Material Contract”) to any material or “Business Material Adverse Effect” qualifier, material to the Business qualifier, or other similar qualifier therein; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement; and (iii) any Retained Liabilities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Retained Liabilities of any of the Purchased Entities or Purchased Ventures).

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary:

(i) Seller shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Purchaser Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Purchaser Indemnified Party for, any Covered Losses pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(i), (A) to the extent that such Covered Losses are expressly included as current liabilities in the calculation of Working Capital on the Post-Closing Statement (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.9(d)) or (B) other than with respect to Seller’s Fundamental Representations, Section 3.8(a) (Title), Section 3.15(o) (Business Employees) and Section 3.19 (Brokers), unless such claim, or series of related claims, involves Covered Losses in excess of $75,000 (the “De Minimis Amount”) and if such Covered Losses do not exceed the De Minimis Amount, such Covered Losses shall not be applied to or considered for the Deductible or otherwise for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under this Section 9.2(b)(i); and (C) until the aggregate amount of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under Section 9.2(a)(i) (other than with respect to Seller’s Fundamental Representations, Section 3.8(a) (Title), Section 3.15(o) (Business Employees) and Section 3.19 (Brokers)) exceeds $20,000,000 (the “Deductible”), after which Seller shall be obligated for all the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under Section 9.2(a)(i) in excess of the Deductible, subject to Sections 9.2(b)(i)(A) and (B) and Section 9.2(b)(ii); and

(ii) Other than with respect to breaches of the representation and warranty in Section 3.15(o) (Business Employees), the cumulative indemnification obligation of Seller under Section 9.2(a)(i) (excluding any amounts with respect to breaches of the representation and warranty in Section 3.15(o) (Business Employees)) shall in no event exceed $147,500,000 (the “Cap”).

Section 9.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, and except with respect to indemnification for Taxes (other than Section 3.15 Taxes), which shall be governed exclusively by Article VI, effective as of and after the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless (or, as applicable, shall cause the relevant acquiring Purchaser Affiliate to indemnify, defend and hold harmless) Seller and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Covered Losses incurred or suffered by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties to the extent arising out of or resulting from (i) the failure of any representation or warranty of Purchaser

-96-

contained in Article IV, or contained in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, to be true and correct as of the Closing Date (or with respect to representations and warranties that are made as of a specific date, the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct as of such date); provided, however, that for purposes of this Article IX, all such representations and warranties shall be read without giving effect to any “material” or “Purchaser Material Adverse Effect” qualifier, or other similar qualifier therein; (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; and (iii) any Assumed Liability.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary:

(i) Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Seller Indemnified Party against, or reimburse any Seller Indemnified Party for, any Covered Losses pursuant to any claim under Section 9.3(a)(i) (A) other than with respect to Purchaser’s Fundamental Representations and Section 4.6 (Brokers), unless such claim, or series of related claims, involves Covered Losses in excess of the De Minimis Amount and if such Covered Losses do not exceed the De Minimis Amount, such Losses shall not be applied to or considered for the Deductible or otherwise for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of the Seller Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under this Section 9.3(b)(i); and (B) until the aggregate amount of the Seller Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under Section 9.3(a)(i) (other than with respect to Purchaser’s Fundamental Representations and Section 4.6 (Brokers) exceeds the Deductible, after which Purchaser shall be obligated for all the Seller Indemnified Parties’ Covered Losses under Section 9.3(a)(i) in excess of the Deductible, subject to Section 9.3(b)(i)(A) and Section 9.3(b)(ii); and

(ii) the cumulative indemnification obligation of Purchaser under Section 9.3(a)(i) shall in no event exceed the Cap.

Section 9.4 Procedures. (a) A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to such right of indemnification (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail (to the extent reasonably practical) the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided, that the delay or failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party suffers actual loss or prejudice as a result of such failure or delay, it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 9.1 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.3(a), the Indemnifying Party will be

-97-

entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party); provided further, that the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 9.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Indemnified Party; provided, that such settlement or judgment does not involve any injunctive relief or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement of such Third Party Claim for the payment of monetary damages unless (i) the Indemnified Party consents to such settlement or (ii) the Indemnifying Party confirms to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for indemnifying the Indemnified Party for the Covered Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim, to the extent provided in (and subject to the parameters of) this Article IX. No Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim that is subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2(a) or Section 9.3(a), as the case may be, without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party.

Section 9.5 Exclusive Remedy and Release. Purchaser and Seller acknowledge and agree that, from and after Closing, except (i) as provided in Section 10.6, (ii) with respect to claims for fraud, (iii) any claims for Taxes (other than Section 3.15 Taxes), which shall be governed exclusively by Article VI, or (iv) as expressly set forth in the Transition Services Agreement, the Alignment Fee Agreement, the Master Services Agreement and any Sublease Agreement or the B2B Arrangement executed in connection with Closing, or any Affiliated Account Service Agreement, or any Purchased Customer Contract pursuant to which Purchaser or its Affiliates provide services to one or more of the Seller Entities, following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Section 9.2 and Section 9.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Seller and Purchaser, respectively, for any Covered Losses (including any Covered Losses from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) that each party hereto may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of or in connection with this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (other than the Transition Services Agreement, the Alignment Fee Agreement, the B2B Arrangement, the Master Services Agreement and any Sublease Agreement), including any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by any party hereto, or any failure by any party hereto to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, under this Agreement and such other Transaction Documents (other than the Transition Services Agreement, the Alignment Fee Agreement, the B2B Arrangement, the Master Services Agreement and any Sublease Agreement).

Section 9.6 Additional Indemnification Provisions. With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in this Agreement, all Covered Losses shall be net of any third-party insurance or indemnity, contribution or similar proceeds that have been actually recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification (it being agreed that if third-party insurance or indemnification, contribution or similar proceeds in respect of such Covered Loss are actually recovered by the Indemnified Party subsequent to the Indemnifying Party’s making of an indemnification payment in satisfaction of its applicable indemnification obligation with respect to such Covered Loss, such proceeds (net of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of securing the same) shall be promptly remitted to the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the indemnification payment made), and the Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity, contribution or similar provisions covering such Loss to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder and shall be permitted to offset against any recovery the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of seeking such recovery. Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party may have against any third parties (other than customers of the Business and any material suppliers to the Business) with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assign any such rights to the Indemnifying Party. The indemnification obligations of Purchaser and Seller in respect of the allocation of Assumed Liabilities and Retained Liabilities shall not govern the allocation of responsibility for Liabilities between Purchaser, Seller and their respective Affiliates in respect of any commercial arrangements unrelated to this Agreement between the parties, such matters being addressed in the terms thereof.

Section 9.7 Limitation on Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including this Article IX), Covered Losses under Section 9.2 and Section 9.3: (i) shall not include punitive or similar damages except to the extent the same are awarded against an Indemnified Party in the context of a Third Party Claim; and (ii) with respect to a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, shall not include any damages that are not proximately related to the facts, events or circumstances that are the subject of the applicable breach of representation, warranty or covenant. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein requires Purchaser to assume, or shall be deemed to imply that Purchaser has assumed, any Liabilities that are not Assumed Liabilities.

Section 9.8 Mitigation. Each of the parties hereto agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate its respective Covered Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Covered Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder.

Section 9.9 Indemnity Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is agreed and understood that (x) any obligation of Seller or its Affiliates to indemnify or hold harmless Purchaser or its Affiliates or to make a payment shall, to the extent that such indemnification or payment relates to, and results in an adjustment to the consideration

-99-

allocated to, a particular Purchased Asset in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 and Section 6.9, be deemed to be an obligation of the particular Seller Entity that transferred such Purchased Asset pursuant to this Agreement to Purchaser or an Affiliate of Purchaser, as applicable, to indemnify or hold harmless such acquiring entity and (y) any obligation of Purchaser or its Affiliates to indemnify or hold harmless Seller or its Affiliates or to make a payment shall, to the extent that such indemnification or payment relates to, and results in an adjustment to the consideration allocated to, a particular Purchased Asset in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10 and Section 6.9, be deemed to be an obligation of the particular Affiliate of Purchaser (or Purchaser, as the case may be) that acquired such Purchased Asset pursuant to this Agreement from the relevant Seller Entity, to indemnify or hold harmless such Seller Entity. Nothing in the foregoing shall be interpreted as limiting the obligations of any party hereunder or prevent indemnification payments from being made by Seller to Purchaser or Purchaser to Seller, as the case may be, on behalf of the relevant Seller Entity or Purchaser Affiliate, and Seller hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to Purchaser the punctual payment, when due, of all amounts treated as owed hereunder by any Seller Entity, and Purchaser hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees the punctual payment, when due, of all amounts treated as owed hereunder by any acquiring entity. Neither Purchaser nor Seller shall be required to seek recovery from any Seller Entity or acquiring entity, as applicable, prior to seeking recovery from Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, and each of Purchaser or Seller’s obligations under this Section 9.9 shall not be affected or impaired by reason of any amendment, waiver, indulgence, forbearance or other variance under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (other than the Transition Services Agreement, the B2B Arrangement, the Alignment Fee Agreement, the Master Services Agreement and any Sublease Agreement), or any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other such claims, action or proceeding relating to the Selling Entity or the acquiring entity, as applicable.

Such waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with such term or provision shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure of compliance.

Section 10.6 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction.

Section 10.7 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. In addition, each of the parties hereto (a) submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any court of the State of New York located in the borough of Manhattan, or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in New York, New York, in the event that any dispute (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arises out of this Agreement or the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby; (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (c) agrees that it will not bring any Proceeding relating to this Agreement or the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than any court of the State of New York located in the borough of Manhattan, or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in New York, New York; and (d) agrees that it will not seek to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, that (x) any such Proceeding (i) is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the

-102-

above-named courts, or (iii) should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any court other than one of the above-named court, or (y) this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by the above-named courts. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any such Proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 10.5.

Section 10.8 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF OR THE TRANSACTION OR ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY HERETO WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 10.8. NO PARTY HERETO HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.8 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

Section 10.9 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one (1) or more such counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered (by facsimile, e-mail, or otherwise) to the other party. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“pdf”) form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures. This Agreement has been executed in the English language. If this Agreement is translated into another language, the English language text shall in any event prevail.

-103-

Section 10.11 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, whether or not the Closing takes place, and except as set forth otherwise in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expense.

Section 10.12 Interpretation; Absence of Presumption. It is understood and agreed that the specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or Purchaser Disclosure Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no party hereto shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any such item in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or Purchaser Disclosure Schedules in any dispute or controversy between the parties hereto as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described in this Agreement or included in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or Purchaser Disclosure Schedules is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. Nothing herein (including the Seller Disclosure Schedules and the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules) shall be deemed an admission by either party hereto or any of its Affiliates, in any Proceeding or Action, that such party or any such Affiliate, or any third party, is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any Contract. Notwithstanding any materiality or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifications in any of the representations and warranties of Seller or Purchaser in the Agreement, for administrative ease, certain items, information or other matters may be included in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules that are not necessarily limited to items, information or matters required to be disclosed by this Agreement to be reflected in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or Purchaser Disclosure Schedules, as applicable, considered by Seller to be material to the Business (including the Purchased Companies) or the financial condition or results of operations of the Business (including the Purchased Companies) or considered by Seller or Purchaser to reasonably be expected to have a Business Material Adverse Effect or a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect, as applicable. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature. Nothing contained in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules is intended to broaden the scope of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement. The fact that any item, information or other matter has been included, referred to or disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedules or the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules (i) shall not be construed to establish, in whole or in part, any standard of the extent disclosure is required (including any standard of materiality), for purposes of such schedules; (ii) does not represent a determination by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, that such item did not arise in the ordinary course of business; and (iii) shall not constitute an admission or indication by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, that such disclosure is required to be made pursuant to any of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa, and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires; (b) references to the terms Article, Section, paragraph, Exhibit and Schedule are references to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto; (d) references to “Dollars” or “$” shall mean U.S. dollars; (e) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall mean “including without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (f) the word

-104-

“or” shall not be exclusive; (g) references to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form; (h) the headings contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; (i) Seller and Purchaser have each participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto or thereto, as applicable, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; (j) a reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (k) any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified; and (l) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.
