C. Seller desires to sell to Buyer the Longhorn Stock, and Buyer desires to purchase from Seller the Longhorn Stock, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE 1.

PURCHASE AND SALE OF STOCK

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, on the Closing Date, Seller shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall acquire from Seller, all right, title and interest of Seller in and to the shares of Longhorn Stock free and clear of all Encumbrances.

Section 1.2 Consideration. At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Buyer shall pay to Seller for the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery of the Longhorn Stock the aggregate amount of $1.1 billion (the “Purchase Consideration”). All payments pursuant to this Section 1.2 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller (such designation to be made at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date). Payment of the Purchase Consideration shall be subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 1.3.

Section 1.3 Post-Closing Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, and in any event within 30 days thereafter, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a calculation of Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date in accordance with the accounting principles, practices, policies and methodologies set forth as Schedule 1.3, together with reasonably detailed supporting information (the “Net Working Capital Statement”).

(b) From and after the delivery of the Net Working Capital Statement, Buyer shall provide Seller and its Representatives reasonable access to the records and employees of Buyer, and Buyer shall, and shall cause the employees of Buyer and its Affiliates to, (i) cooperate in all reasonable respects with Seller in connection with Seller’s review of the Net Working Capital Statement and (ii) provide Seller with access to accounting records, supporting schedules and relevant information relating to Buyer’s preparation of the Net Working Capital Statement and calculation of Net Working Capital as Seller shall reasonably request and that are available to Buyer or its Affiliates. Within 30 days after Seller’s receipt of the Net Working Capital Statement, Seller shall notify Buyer as to whether Seller agrees or disagrees with the Net Working Capital Statement and, if Seller disagrees, such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement. If Seller provides a notice of agreement or does not provide a notice of disagreement within such 30-day period, then Seller shall be deemed to have accepted the calculations and the amounts set forth in the Net Working Capital Statement delivered by Buyer, which shall then be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. If any notice of disagreement is timely provided in accordance with this Section 1.3(b), then Buyer and Seller shall each use commercially reasonable efforts for a period of 30 days thereafter (the “Net Working Capital Resolution Period”) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculations in the Net Working Capital Statement.

(c) If, at the end of the Net Working Capital Resolution Period, Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any disagreements as to items in the Net Working Capital Statement, then KPMG LLP (or such other independent accounting firm of recognized national standing in the United States as may be mutually selected by Buyer and Seller) shall resolve any remaining disagreements. If neither KPMG LLP nor any such mutually selected accounting firm is willing and able to serve in such capacity, then Seller shall deliver to Buyer a list of three other accounting firms of recognized national or regional standing and Buyer shall select one of such three accounting firms (such firm as is ultimately selected pursuant to the aforementioned procedures being the “Accountant”). The Accountant shall be charged with determining as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 30 days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Accountant, whether Net Working Capital as set forth in the Net Working Capital Statement was prepared in accordance with this Agreement and (only with respect to the disagreements as to the items set forth in the notice of disagreement and submitted to the Accountant) whether and to what extent, if any, Net Working Capital requires adjustment.

(d) The Accountant shall allocate its costs and expenses between Buyer and Seller based upon the percentage of the contested amount submitted to the Accountant that is ultimately awarded to each party such that each party bears a percentage of such costs and expenses equal to the percentage of the contested amount awarded to the other party. For example, if Seller claims Net Working Capital is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by Buyer, and Buyer contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Seller, and if the Accountant ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Seller $300 of the $500 contested, then the Accountant’s costs and expenses shall be allocated 60% (i.e. 300/500) to Buyer and 40% (i.e. 200/500) to Seller. The determination of the Accountant shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder.

(e) The date on which Net Working Capital is finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.3 is hereinafter referred to as the “Determination Date,” such amount as so finally determined is hereinafter referred to as the “Final Net Working Capital,” and the calculations thereof and the supporting information relating thereto is hereinafter referred to as the “Final Net Working Capital Statement”.

(f) Promptly following the Determination Date, and in any event within five Business Days of the Determination Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the sum of (i) the Final Net Working Capital plus (ii) the Vale Prepayment Amount received by Buyer over (y) the Target Net Working Capital, or Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the Target Net Working Capital over (y) the sum of (i) the Final Net Working Capital plus (ii) the Vale Prepayment Amount received by Buyer, in each case together with interest at a rate equal to five percent (5%) per annum on such amount from the Closing Date to the date of payment, such payment to be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

Section 1.4 Treatment of Longhorn Equity Awards.

(a) At the Closing and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, Seller shall cause each stock appreciation right, stock option and restricted stock unit granted under the Longhorn Incentive Plan (each such stock appreciation right, stock option and restricted stock unit, a “Longhorn Compensatory Award”) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing, whether or not then vested or exercisable, to be cancelled, extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of vested shares of Longhorn Stock underlying such Longhorn Compensatory Award as of immediately prior to the Closing (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting that occurs pursuant to the terms of such Longhorn Compensatory Award as the result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such additional accelerated vesting as may be provided by Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (any such additional vesting, “Seller Discretionary Vesting” and the Compensatory Award Compensation attributable to such Seller Discretionary Vesting, “Discretionary Award Compensation”)) and (y) the per share Purchase Consideration less any per share exercise price of such Longhorn Compensatory Award (the “Compensatory Award Consideration”). The estimated amount of the Compensatory Award Consideration including the estimated Discretionary Award Compensation to be paid to each individual is listed on Schedule 1.4(a). In the event any Longhorn Compensatory Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the payment of the amount of cash with respect thereto shall be delayed to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Within five Business Days following the Closing (or at such later date as required by Section 409A of the Code), Buyer shall cause to be paid to each holder of a Longhorn Compensatory Award an amount in Cash equal to the Compensatory Award Consideration with respect to such Longhorn Compensatory Award, less any required withholding obligations. Within five Business Days following the Closing, Seller shall make a payment to Buyer in an amount equal to the sum of (x) the aggregate Discretionary Award Compensation, (y) the aggregate employment and other tax that the Buyer or a Longhorn Entity is required to pay as a result of payment of the Discretionary Award Compensation, and (z) the amount of any additional matching contributions that Buyer or a Longhorn Entity is required to contribute to a retirement plan as a result of the Discretionary Award Compensation (determined by assuming that the Discretionary Award Compensation does not increase the amount of contributions any employee would otherwise elect to make to such retirement plan).

From the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Closing Date or the date on which this Agreement is earlier terminated pursuant to Article 10, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates or Representatives shall, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or encourage any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or negotiate with, provide any information to or consider any inquiries or proposals from, any Person (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and Representatives) relating to any transaction involving the sale of all or any portion of the Business, whether affected by sale of assets, sale of stock, merger or otherwise. Seller shall (i) ensure that its Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Representatives are aware of the provisions of this Section 5.5, (ii) be responsible for any breaches by any such parties of this Section 5.5, and (iii) notify Buyer promptly upon the receipt by it of any inquiries or proposals from any third party relating to any such potential transaction, such notice to include the name of such third party and the material terms and conditions of any such inquiries or proposals. At or prior to Closing, Seller shall request and require the return or destruction of all confidential information concerning the Business or any of the Longhorn Entities made available to any third party (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and Representatives) since January 1, 2010 with respect to or in connection with any inquiries, proposals or access to information prior to the Closing Date and of a type described in the first sentence of this Section 5.5 to the full extent provided in the confidentiality agreement entered into between Seller and/or Longhorn and such third party in connection therewith. In addition, Seller shall not release any such third party from any such confidentiality agreement (or any obligation thereunder) or waive, amend or alter any of such third party’s obligations thereunder and, at the reasonable request and expense of Buyer enforce the terms of such confidentiality agreement against such third party and assign to Buyer (to the extent assignable without the consent of such third party) Seller’s rights thereunder as it relates to the Business and the Longhorn Entities.

Section 5.6 Intercompany Arrangements; Indebtedness. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.6, at or prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause all Intercompany Arrangements to be terminated and have no further force and effect as of the Closing, with no Liability on the part of any party thereto continuing after the Closing (it being understood that all Liabilities of the Business and all other parties under Intercompany Arrangements shall be eliminated as of the Closing). Seller shall cause any outstanding Indebtedness of any Longhorn Entity to be repaid, cancelled or eliminated prior to the Closing.

Section 5.7 Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Subject to Section 5.3(d), between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, each of the Parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions in Sections 6.1 and 6.2 to be satisfied.

Section 5.8 Replacement of Bonds, Letters of Credit and Guarantees. The Parties understand that none of the bonds, letters of credit and guarantees, if any, listed on Schedule 3.5(c) and posted by Seller or any of its Affiliates with any Governmental Entity or third Person and relating to the Business are to be transferred to Buyer. On or before Closing, Buyer shall obtain, or cause to be obtained in the name of Buyer, replacements for such bonds, letters of credit and guarantees, to the extent such replacements are necessary to permit the cancellation of the bonds, letters of credit and guarantees posted by Seller and such Affiliates or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.9 Title Insurance, Zoning Reports and Surveys. Seller acknowledges that Buyer intends to obtain Title Insurance, Zoning Reports and Surveys in connection with, or following, the Closing. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining an ALTA Owner’s Title Insurance Policy (or equivalent foreign report) (the “Title Policies”) for each Owned Real Property and each Leased Real Property identified by Buyer (the “Material Leased Real Property”), issued by a title insurance company reasonably satisfactory to Buyer (the “Title Company”). Promptly following receipt by Seller of reasonable evidence of the existence of Encumbrances of a fixed or ascertainable amount (that individually exceeds $500,000) appearing on the commitments issued for such Title Policies, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts (whether prior to or following Closing) to cure such Encumbrances over $500,000. Seller shall provide the Title Company with any affidavits (including owner's and non-imputation endorsement affidavits), indemnities or other assurances reasonably requested by the Title Company to issue the Title Policies. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining a survey for each Owned Real Property and Material Leased Real Property, dated no earlier than the date of this Agreement, prepared by a licensed surveyor reasonably satisfactory to Buyer (the “Surveys”). Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in obtaining a zoning report (or equivalent foreign report) (which, in each case, may include obtaining a zoning compliance letter from the respective municipality) for each Owned Real Property and Material Leased Real Property, dated no earlier than the date of this Agreement (the “Zoning Reports”). Buyer shall pay all fees, costs and expenses with respect to the Title Policies, Zoning Reports and Surveys. Nothing in this Section 5.9 shall require such cooperation from Seller to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the Business or operations of Seller or delay the Closing.

Section 5.10 Other Agreements. Seller and Buyer agree that each of them shall perform their respective obligations set forth in Schedule 5.10.

Section 5.11 Rig Contract.

(a) At the Closing, Seller will cause (i) the Longhorn Entity that currently owns the rig and allocated inventory associated with such rig (collectively, the “Transferred Rig”) that is the subject of the Contract listed as item 13on Schedule 3.13(a)(i) to transfer and convey all of such Longhorn Entity’s right, title and interest in such Transferred Rig to Seller or one of its Affiliates (other than a Longhorn Entity), (ii) such Longhorn Entity to assign all of such Longhorn Entity’s rights and obligations under such Contract to Seller or one of its Affiliates (other than a Longhorn Entity) and such assignee to assume all of such obligations and upon such assignment and assumption such Longhorn Entity will have no further obligations thereunder. All documentation relating to such transactions shall be subject to Buyer’s prior review and approval not to be unreasonably withheld.

(b) Following the Closing, Buyer agrees that the Transferred Rig may continue to remain at the Longhorn facility where it is currently located until the earlier of (i) delivery by Seller to a third party customer or (ii) the first anniversary of the Closing Date, at which xxxx Xxxxxx will cause the Transferred Rig to be removed from such Longhorn facility at Seller’s sole cost and expense; provided that neither Buyer nor any Longhorn Entity will have any responsibility for any loss or damage to the Transferred Rig or for maintaining insurance covering the Transferred Rig or any loss or damage thereon while it is stored at such Longhorn facility or as a result of the removal by Seller of the Transferred Rig. Seller agrees that it will maintain reasonable insurance coverage for any such loss or damage to the Transferred Rig.

(c) For a one year period following the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Longhorn Entities to provide reasonable assistance to Seller in selling the Transferred Rig to a third party customer; provided that Seller shall reimburse Buyer for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Buyer in providing such assistance. To the extent Seller desires for additional work to be conducted on the Transferred Rig, Seller will enter into a purchase order with Longhorn to perform such work on a time and materials basis plus a profit of 10%. For purposes of this provision, “time and materials” means actual cost of products or equipment used, and actual labor, without any overhead allocation or other expense. In addition, if Seller desires to provide a warranty to any third party customer, Buyer agrees to cause Longhorn to enter into an agreement with Seller to perform any warranty work on a time and materials basis plus a profit of 10% for a period no longer than one year following the delivery of the Transferred Rig to a third party customer. In addition, as reasonably requested by Seller, Buyer agrees to cause Longhorn to provide reasonable access during normal business hours to any Seller personnel who are managing the project or are attempting to sell the Transferred Rig.

Section 5.12 Financing. From the date hereof until the Closing Date, Seller agrees to provide to Buyer, and shall cause the Longhorn Entities and its and their Representatives to provide to Buyer, such cooperation that is reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with any debt financing that Buyer contemplates entering into in connection with the Closing to finance all or any portion of the Purchase Consideration.

INDEMNIFICATION; REMEDIES

Section 7.1 Survival of Claims. All representations and warranties of Seller and Buyer contained herein and all claims for breaches of pre-Closing covenants in Article 5 shall survive until the one year anniversary of the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.1 (Organization and Good Standing), Section 3.2(a) (Authority), Section 3.3 (Capitalization), Section 3.9 (Taxes), Section 4.1 (Organization of Buyer), and Section 4.2(a) (Authority) (collectively, the “Fundamental Reps”) and all claims for breach of any other covenant shall survive the Closing indefinitely (except for the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.9 (Taxes), which shall survive until 30 days past the applicable statute of limitations, and the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.10 (Employees and Employee Benefits), which shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing Date). The right to indemnification based on such representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and obligations herein will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation.

Section 7.2 Indemnification.

(a) By Seller. From and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and each of its Affiliates, Subsidiaries and Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all costs, losses, Liabilities, obligations, damages, lawsuits, deficiencies, claims, demands or expenses (whether or not arising out of thirty party claims), including without limitation interest, penalties, reasonable legal fees and all reasonable amounts paid in investigation or defense, and all amounts paid in settlement, of any of the foregoing (collectively, “Damages”), resulting from:

(i) any breach of any representations or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement (provided that, except with respect to the representation and warranty contained in Section 3.8(a), for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any such representation or warranty and/or the amount of any Damages related to such breach, such representation or warranty shall be considered without regard to any “material adverse effect” or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifications set forth therein);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by Seller in this Agreement;

(iii) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based on any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such Person with Seller or any Longhorn Entity (or any Person acting (or purportedly acting) on behalf of any such Person) in connection with the Transactions; or

(iv) any claim by any Person against Buyer and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, any Longhorn Entity) relating to the Contract listed as item 13 on Schedule 3.13(a)(i) (including any claim for breach of such Contract) and any Legal Proceeding in connection therewith.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.2(a), this Section 7.2 shall not duplicate the indemnity obligation to Seller for a Tax Damage for which indemnification provisions are set forth in Section 8.12.

(c) By Buyer. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of Seller and its respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Representatives (the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Damages resulting from:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement (provided that, for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach of any such representation or warranty and/or the amount of any Damages related to such breach, such representation or warranty shall be considered without regard to any “material adverse effect” qualifications set forth therein);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement made by Buyer in this Agreement;

(iii) any claim by any Person for brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based on any agreement or understanding alleged to have been made by such Person with Buyer or any Affiliate thereof (or any Person acting (or purportedly acting) on behalf of any such Person) in connection with the Transactions; or

(iv) any claims, to the extent relating to the Business, by any Person under any bond, letter of credit or guarantee listed on Schedule 3.5(c) and posted or made by Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Longhorn Entities) with any Governmental Entity or third Person in connection with or for the benefit of the Business.

(d) Notice of Claims. If a claim for Damages (a “Claim”) is to be made by a party entitled to indemnification hereunder against the indemnifying party, the party claiming such indemnification shall give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the indemnifying party as soon as practicable after the party entitled to indemnification becomes aware of any fact, condition or event which may give rise to Damages for which indemnification may be sought under this Section 7.2; provided, however, that the failure to provide such written notice shall not excuse the indemnifying party from any of its obligations under this Section 7.2 except to the extent (and only to the extent) that such failure shall have caused the Damages for which the indemnifying party is obligated to be materially greater than such Damages would have been had the indemnified party given the indemnifying party prompt notice hereunder.

(e) Defense of Third-Party Claims. If any lawsuit or enforcement action is filed by a third party against any party entitled to the benefit of indemnity hereunder with respect thereto, written notice thereof shall be given to the indemnifying party as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 15 calendar days after the service of the citation or summons). The failure of any indemnified party to give timely notice hereunder shall not affect rights to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been materially damaged by such failure as described in the provision to Section 7.2(c)). After such notice, if (1) the indemnifying party shall acknowledge in writing to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party is obligated under the terms of its indemnity hereunder to fully indemnify the indemnified party in connection with such lawsuit or action, and (2) such third party claim is solely for monetary damages, and is not brought by a customer, Governmental Entity or a supplier listed on Schedule 3.20, then the indemnifying party shall be entitled, if it elects to do so, at its own cost, risk and expense, (i) to take control of the defense and investigation of such lawsuit or action, (ii) to employ and engage legal counsel of its own choice, but, in any event, reasonably acceptable to the indemnified party, to handle and defend the same unless the named parties to such action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and the indemnified party has been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such indemnified party that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, in which event the indemnified party shall be entitled, at the indemnifying party’s cost, risk and expense, to separate counsel of its own choosing. The indemnifying party shall not, without the written consent of the indemnified party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (x) settle or compromise any Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the indemnified party from all liability in respect of such Claim or (y) settle or compromise any Claim if the settlement imposes equitable remedies or obligations on the indemnified party other than financial obligations for which such indemnified party will be fully indemnified hereunder. No Claim which is being defended in good faith by the indemnifying party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be settled or compromised by the indemnified party without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If the indemnifying party fails to assume the defense of such lawsuit or action within 30 calendar days after receipt of the Claim Notice or is not permitted to assume such defense pursuant to this Section 7.2(d), the indemnified party against which such lawsuit or action has been asserted will (upon delivering notice to such effect to the indemnifying party) have the right to undertake, at the indemnifying party’s cost and expense, the defense, compromise or settlement of such lawsuit or action on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party; provided, however, that such lawsuit or action shall not be compromised or settled without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the indemnified party settles or compromises such lawsuit or action without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will bear no liability hereunder for or with respect to such lawsuit or action unless the indemnifying party unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed its consent. In the event either party assumes the defense of a particular lawsuit or action in the manner contemplated above, the party assuming such defense will keep the other party reasonably informed of the progress of any such defense, compromise or settlement. The indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action effected pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 7.2 and for any final judgment (subject to any right of appeal), and the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party from and against any Damages by reason of such settlement or judgment.

(f) Exclusivity. Except as provided in Section 8.12, Section 9.6(c), Section 9.7(c) and Section 11.14, the indemnification provided in this Article 7 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of any Seller indemnified party and any Buyer indemnified party in respect of matters addressed in Sections 7.2(a) and (b), respectively. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the indemnification provisions of this Article 7 and Article 8 shall govern all claims by the Parties for breaches of this Agreement, except with respect to breaches or claims based upon fraud, as to which the Parties shall have, in addition to the indemnification provisions of this Article 7 and Article 8, all of their rights and remedies at law.

(g) Limitation on Indemnity/Commitments.

(i) The indemnification obligations of Seller and Buyer with respect to any breach of any representation, warranty or pre-Closing covenant in Article 5 pursuant to Sections 7.2(a)(i), 7.2(a)(ii), 7.2(b)(i), or 7.2(b)(ii), respectively, shall be limited to Claims made on or prior to the applicable last date of survival thereof referred to in Section 7.1. The indemnification obligations of Seller and Buyer with respect to any other basis for indemnification obligations, including the indemnification obligations of Seller pursuant to clauses (ii) (other than with respect to pre-Closing covenants in Article 5), (iii) and (iv) of Section 7.2(a), and the indemnification obligations of Buyer pursuant to clauses (ii) (with respect to post-Closing covenants) and (iii) of Section 7.2(b) shall survive indefinitely subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) The Seller Indemnified Parties may not recover Damages from Seller pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) until the aggregate amount of Damages relating to all Claims for which the Seller Indemnified Parties, in the aggregate, are seeking indemnification under Section 7.2(a)(i) exceeds $10,000,000 (the “Deductible”) and then only for the amount by which the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Seller Indemnified Parties are seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) exceeds the Deductible; provided, however, that Claims for Damages pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) resulting from fraud or a breach of the Fundamental Reps made by Seller shall not be subject to the Deductible, and shall be recoverable from the first dollar. In calculating the Deductible, any Damages that individually, or collectively as part of a series of items arising from the same or substantially similar facts or circumstances, amount to less than $250,000 shall be excluded in their entirety, shall not be counted toward the Deductible and Seller shall have no Liability to the Seller Indemnified Parties therefor. The Seller Indemnified Parties shall have the right to make a Claim under Section 7.2(a)(i) prior to the time the Deductible has been surpassed for the purpose of asserting such Claim within the relevant survival period and any such Claim made within such period shall, to the extent the Deductible ultimately is met, survive until its final resolution. This Section 7.2(f)(ii) shall not apply to Claims for indemnification made pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 7.2(a).

(iii) The aggregate amount of Damages that may be recovered by the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Sections 7.2(a)(i) may not exceed $90.0 million (the “Cap”); provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to Claims for Damages pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) resulting from fraud or a breach of the Fundamental Reps made by Seller. This Section 7.2(f)(iii) shall not apply to Claims for indemnification made pursuant to clause (ii), (iii) and (iv) of Section 7.2(a).

(iv) The Buyer Indemnified Parties may not recover Damages from Buyer pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) until the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties, in the aggregate, are seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) exceeds the Deductible and then only for the amount by which the aggregate amount of Damages for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are seeking indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) exceeds the Deductible; provided, however, that Claims for Damages pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) resulting from fraud or a breach of the Fundamental Reps made by Buyer shall not be subject to the Deductible, and shall be recoverable from the first dollar. The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have the right to make a Claim under Section 7.2(b)(i) prior to the time at which the Deductible has been surpassed for the purpose of asserting such Claim within the relevant survival period and any such Claim made within such period shall, to the extent the Deductible ultimately is met, survive until its final resolution. The aggregate amount of Damages that may be recovered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) may not exceed the Cap; provided, however, that this limitation shall not apply to Claims for Damages pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) resulting from fraud or breach of the Fundamental Reps made by Buyer. This Section 7.2(f)(iv) shall not apply to Claims for indemnification made pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 7.2(b) .

(v) Neither (A) the termination of the representations or warranties contained herein, nor (B) the expiration of the indemnification obligations described above, will affect the rights of a Person in respect of any Claim made by such Person prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period provided herein.

(vi) (A) To the extent that any Damages that are subject to indemnification under this Agreement are covered by insurance, the amount of any indemnity payment shall be net of the Net Proceeds of any insurance policy paid to the indemnified party with respect to such Damages, (B) any indemnification under this Agreement shall be decreased by the amount of any Tax Benefit, (C) any Damages that are subject to indemnification under this Agreement shall be decreased to the extent that such Damages are reflected in the Final Net Working Capital Statement and (D) no indemnification for Damages under this Agreement shall arise or be required to the extent that such Damages (1) relate to Taxes for a Post-Closing Tax Period, except to the extent such Taxes arise from a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.9(j), or (2) result from or arise out of any reduction or limitation on the use of any Tax attribute (including without limitation any net operating loss carryover or credit carryover) of the Longhorn Entities attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, except to the extent such reduction or limitation results in a Tax liability which is subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.12(a)(i). For purposes of this Section 7.2(f)(vi), “Net Proceeds” shall mean the insurance proceeds actually received, less any expenses of recovery, deductibles, and/or co-payments. If any amounts are reimbursed under insurance coverage subsequent to indemnification under this Article, the indemnified party shall reimburse the indemnifying party in an amount equal to the amounts subsequently received under insurance coverage (net of the expenses of recovery). For purposes of this Section 7.2(f)(vi), to the extent a Tax Benefit is not realized in the year in which the indemnity payment is required to be made, the indemnified party (or any Affiliate thereof) shall pay to the indemnifying party (or any Affiliate thereof) the amount of such Tax Benefit when it is realized.

(vii) In no event shall an indemnifying party be liable for punitive, special or consequential damages sustained or claimed by an indemnified party except to the extent such damages arise from a third-party Claim. Damages must be established with reasonable certainty and are limited to those Damages that were reasonably foreseeable or in the reasonable contemplation of the Parties as of the date of this Agreement, except to the extent such damages arise from a third-party Claim. Liabilities shall be determined after taking into account any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the indemnified party from any third party with respect thereto.

ARTICLE 8.

CERTAIN TAX MATTERS

Section 8.1 Tax Returns.

(a) Seller shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) in a manner consistent with applicable Law and past practice and file (or cause to be filed) all Tax Returns of the Longhorn Entities that are filed on a separate return basis for all Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date that are filed after the Closing Date. Seller shall, without duplicating Seller’s indemnity obligation under Section 8.12, pay (or cause to be paid) to Buyer not less than five Business Days prior to the due date of any such Tax Return all Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns, except to the extent such Taxes are shown as a reserve on the Final Net Working Capital Statement. At least 20 Business Days prior to the filing of any such Tax Returns, Seller shall permit Buyer to review and comment on such Tax Returns and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Buyer (provided, however, Seller shall not be required to make any revision requested by Buyer if such revision relates to an item that Seller prepared in accordance with applicable Law and past practice). Buyer shall file such Tax Returns on or prior to the due date thereof.

(b) Seller will prepare and file all federal, state, local or foreign Tax Returns with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (“Consolidated Pre-Closing Tax Returns”) that are filed on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis, include any Longhorn Entity, and are required to be filed after the Closing Date, and shall pay all Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns. The Longhorn Entities will provide, at Seller’s sole expense, all information in their possession and not otherwise available to Seller that is required to be included in such Consolidated Pre-Closing Tax Returns as Seller may reasonably request within 10 days of such request .

(c) Buyer shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) in a manner consistent with past practice and file (or cause to be filed) all Tax Returns of the Longhorn Entities that are filed on a separate return basis for all Straddle Periods. At least 20 Business Days prior to the filing of any such Tax Returns, Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on such Tax Returns and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by Seller (provided, however, Buyer shall not be required to make any revision requested by Seller if such revision relates to an item that Buyer prepared in accordance with applicable Law and the past practice of the Longhorn Entities).

Section 8.2 Amending Tax Returns. Buyer shall not file (or cause to be filed) or amend (or cause to be amended) or make (or cause to be made) any Tax election that could adversely affect, any Tax Return of the Longhorn Entities for any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 8.3 Tax Refunds. Seller shall be entitled to the amount of any refund or credit of Taxes of the Longhorn Entities with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period which refund or credit is actually recognized by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Longhorn Entities) after the Closing. Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller any amount to which Seller is entitled pursuant to the prior sentence within ten Business Days of the receipt or recognition of the applicable refund or credit by Buyer or its Affiliates.

Section 8.4 Post-Closing Actions. Other than with respect to the Section 338(h)(10) Election, Buyer agrees to indemnify Seller for any additional Tax owed by Seller (including tax owed by Seller due to this indemnification payment) resulting from any transaction engaged in by the Longhorn Entities not in the Ordinary Course of Business occurring on the Closing Date after Buyer’s purchase of the Longhorn Stock. If Buyer reasonably believes that a Longhorn Entity is required by applicable Law to file a Tax Return for a Post-Closing Tax Period in a jurisdiction in which the relevant Longhorn Entity has not previously filed a Tax Return (such Tax Return, a “New Jurisdiction Tax Return”), Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of its belief and provide Seller with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s basis for its belief. Buyer and Seller shall discuss for a period of 30 days in good faith whether such New Jurisdiction Tax Return is in fact required to be filed under applicable Law. Following such consultation period, Buyer shall be free to file any such New Jurisdiction Tax Return if Buyer continues to reasonably believe such Tax Return is required to be filed. Such filing in no way shall prejudice Buyer’s right to indemnification under Section 8.12.

Section 8.5 Cooperation. Buyer, the Longhorn Entities, and Seller shall reasonably cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any Tax Contest. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Contest and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

Section 8.6 Transfer Taxes. All transfer, stamp, documentary, sales, use, registration, value-added and other similar Taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer Taxes) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller.

Section 8.7 Characterization of Payments. Any indemnification payments made pursuant to Article 7 or this Article 8 shall constitute an adjustment of the consideration paid for the Longhorn Stock for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by Parties to the extent permitted by law.

Section 8.8 Certain Deductions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii) that the Tax deductions arising out of any payment made pursuant to Section 1.4 (Treatment of Longhorn Equity Awards) shall be allocated to and reported in the taxable year of Longhorn ending on the Closing Date, except as otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code, or by similar provision of applicable state or local income, franchise or other relevant Tax law.

Section 8.9 Overlap Provisions. In the event of any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Article 8 and Article 7, the provisions of this Article 8 shall control.

Section 8.10 Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(a) Seller shall join with Buyer in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding election under state, local, and foreign Tax law) (the “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the purchase and sale of the shares of the stock of Longhorn and its Subsidiaries that are U.S. corporations for United States federal income tax purposes (each, a “338(h)(10) Entity”).

(b) Buyer and Seller shall cooperate fully in making the Section 338(h)(10) Election, including the filing of all required IRS forms and related forms under state, local or foreign Tax law (collectively, the “Section 338 Election Forms”). Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare IRS Form 8023. Seller shall permit Buyer to review and comment on such Form 8023 and shall consider in good faith any comment or revision reasonably requested by Buyer. On the Closing Date, Seller shall execute and deliver the fully completed Form 8023 to Buyer. Buyer shall file the Form 8023 on or prior to the due date for filing such Form 8023.

(c) Within 120 days after Closing, Buyer shall prepare an allocation (the “Asset Allocation”) of the Purchase Consideration among the assets of the 338(h)(10) Entities in accordance with Sections 338 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and any comparable provisions of state, local or other Tax law, and shall deliver the Asset Allocation to Seller. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on the Asset Allocation and shall consider in good faith any comment or revision reasonably requested by Seller within 20 days after delivery of the Asset Allocation by Buyer. In the event an agreement regarding the Asset Allocation cannot be reached, Buyer and Seller shall jointly retain the Accountant to resolve the dispute.

(d) Buyer, Seller and the 338(h)(10) Entities shall file all Tax Returns (including but not limited to the Section 338 Election Forms and IRS Form 8883) consistent with the Section 338(h)(10) Election and the Asset Allocation and shall not voluntarily take any action inconsistent therewith upon any audit or examination of any Tax Return or in any other filing or proceeding relating to Taxes, unless required pursuant to a determination as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of any foreign, state or local law; provided however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent Buyer or Seller from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity based upon or arising out of the Asset Allocation, and neither Buyer nor Seller shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity challenging the Asset Allocation. If the Purchase Consideration paid by Buyer to Seller pursuant to this Agreement is adjusted in any manner as provided in this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly revise the Asset Allocation to reflect such adjustments to the Purchase Consideration paid pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer shall permit Seller to review and comment on such revised Asset Allocation and shall consider in good faith any comment or revision reasonably requested by Seller within 20 days after delivery of the revised Asset Allocation by Buyer. In the event an agreement regarding the Asset Allocation cannot be reached, Buyer and Seller shall jointly retain the Accountant to resolve the dispute.

(e) In connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, if Buyer makes an election under Section 338(g) and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and any corresponding or similar elections under state or local Tax Law with respect to any foreign Subsidiary of Longhorn, Buyer agrees to reimburse Seller for any adverse Tax consequences suffered by Seller resulting from such election. Such reimbursement shall be limited to $500,000. Any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Longhorn that is a “controlled foreign corporation” for purposes of section 957 of the Code shall not take any action on or after the Closing Date and through the end of 2011 that is outside the Ordinary Course of Business.

Section 8.11 FIRPTA Certificate. Seller shall deliver to Buyer on or prior to the Closing Date, a certificate signed by Seller, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, to the effect that Seller is not a “foreign person” as defined in Section 1445 of the Code.

Section 8.12 Tax Indemnification.

(a) Except to the extent reflected in the Final Net Working Capital Statement and subject to Section 7.2(f)(vi), Seller hereby indemnifies Buyer and each of its Affiliates, Subsidiaries and Representatives, against and agrees to hold them harmless from any (i) Tax Liabilities of the Longhorn Entities for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods and (ii) Taxes of any member (other than any Longhorn Entity) of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which Seller or any Longhorn Entity is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of Liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6, or comparable provision of foreign, state or local Law.

(b) For purposes of Section 8.12(a), in the case of any Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax related to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall (i) in the case of any Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (e.g. ad valorem, property and license fees) other than Taxes set forth in clause (ii) below, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending as of the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (ii) in the case of any non-periodic Taxes, including any Tax based upon or related to income, gains or receipts or based upon or related to employment or sales or use, value added, and customs duty, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended as of the Closing Date. Any credits relating to a Tax period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date shall be taken into account as though the relevant taxable period ended on the Closing Date. The portion of any credits relating to a Straddle Period shall be determined as though the relevant taxable period ended on and included the Closing Date.

(c) Payment by Seller of any amount due under Section 8.12(a) shall be made within ten Business Days following written notice by the indemnitee that payment of such amounts to the appropriate Tax authority is due, provided that Seller shall not be required to make any payment earlier than five Business Days before it is due to the appropriate Tax authority. In the case of a Tax that is contested in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.12 below, payment of the Tax to the appropriate Tax authority shall not be considered to be due earlier than the date a final determination to such effect is made by the appropriate Tax authority or court. All costs and expenses, including any deposit or similar payment required to be made to any Tax authority and any out-of-pocket costs incurred in order to pursue or continue the contest of any Tax Claim or incurred in connection with a Tax Claim shall be paid by Seller (but only to the extent such Tax Claim relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or, for a Straddle Period, to the portion of such period that ends on the Closing Date).

Section 8.13 Tax Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer in writing upon receipt of notice of any pending Tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of any Longhorn Entity. If a claim shall be made against the Buyer or any of their Affiliates by any Tax authority, which, if successful, would result in an indemnity payment to the Buyer or one of its Affiliates pursuant to Section 8.12(a) (a “Tax Claim”), the Buyer shall promptly notify Seller, in writing of such Tax Claim stating the nature and basis of such Tax Claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known by the Buyer, provided, however, that the failure to provide such written notice shall not excuse the Seller from any of its obligations under a Tax Claim except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the Seller is materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) With respect to any Tax Claim that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Seller shall control at its expense all proceedings taken in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) but shall not, without the prior written approval of Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), agree or consent to compromise or settle, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any issue or claim arising in such proceeding, or otherwise agree or consent to any Tax Liability, to the extent that any such compromise, settlement, consent or agreement may increase the Tax Liability of Buyer or any of its Affiliates for any Tax period that ends after the Closing (or portion thereof in the case of a Straddle Period), unless the Seller indemnifies the Buyer for the increase in Taxes resulting from such compromise, settlement, consent or agreement. Buyer shall have the right to consult with Seller regarding any audit or proceeding that could result in an increase to the Tax Liability of Buyer or any of its Affiliates for any Post-Closing Tax Period.

(c) Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct of any Tax Claim that relates to a Straddle Period. The Buyer shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) but shall not, without the prior written approval of Seller (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), agree or consent to compromise or settle, either administratively or after the commencement of litigation, any issue or claim arising in such proceeding, or otherwise agree or consent to any Tax Liability, to the extent that any such compromise, settlement, consent or agreement may increase the Tax Liability of Seller, any Longhorn Entity or any of their Affiliates for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, unless the Buyer indemnifies the Seller for the increase in Taxes resulting from such compromise, settlement, consent or agreement. Seller shall have the right to consult with Buyer regarding any audit or proceeding relating to a Straddle Period.

ARTICLE 9.

OTHER POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

Section 9.1 Employee Related Matters.

(a) Employment.

(i) Each Person who is employed by a Longhorn Entity immediately prior to the Closing shall continue employment with such Longhorn Entity immediately following the Closing without further action on the part of Buyer or Seller (such Persons are referred to herein as “Longhorn Employees”), provided, that prior to the Closing, Seller shall cause each Longhorn Entity to transfer to Seller (or an Affiliate of Seller or a third party contracted by Seller, in each case, that is not a Longhorn Entity) the employment of any employee of such Longhorn Entity whose principal place of employment is the Longhorn facility identified on Schedule 9.1(a)(i) unless such employee is identified on Schedule 9.1(a)(i) as remaining employed by such Longhorn Entity (such transferred Persons are referred to herein as “Transferred Employees”). Longhorn shall offer or cause to be offered to Transferred Employees COBRA coverage to the extent such Transferred Employees are eligible for COBRA coverage and shall remain liable for the provision of such coverage to the extent the provision of COBRA coverage is required by applicable law, following the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the applicable Longhorn Entity to terminate the employment of each employee of a Longhorn Entity requested by Buyer in writing no less than ten Business Days prior to the Closing Date (each such employee, a “Terminated Longhorn Employee”), other than as required by applicable law. Longhorn shall offer or cause to be offered to Terminated Longhorn Employees COBRA coverage to the extent such Terminated Longhorn Employees are eligible for COBRA coverage and shall remain liable for the provision of such coverage, to the extent the provision of COBRA coverage is required by applicable law, following the Closing. Neither Buyer nor any Longhorn Entity shall have any liability on or after the Closing Date for any severance, change in control, or other post-termination compensation or benefits (other than COBRA) with respect to Transferred Employees and Terminated Longhorn Employees (such payments “Termination Payments”), provided, that if Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer hires as an employee or engages as a consultant any such Terminated Longhorn Employee during the Restricted Period, Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all Termination Payments made to such Terminated Longhorn Employee within five Business Days following the date of hire or engagement.

(ii) For the period of time commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, Buyer shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Longhorn Employees employee benefits that, in the aggregate, are substantially similar to employee benefits (other than equity and cash incentives) provided to the Longhorn Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Defined Benefit Plan; 401(k) Plan; Transition Incentives; Amendment Authority.

(i) Seller shall take such action as is necessary so that, as of the Closing Date, no Longhorn Entity has any obligation to fund (or otherwise has any liability with respect to) any pension plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA, including, for example, transferring sponsorship of each Employee Plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA to Seller or another member of Seller’s controlled group that is not a Longhorn Entity.

(ii) With respect to each Employee Plan that (a) is a defined contribution retirement plan, (b) is intended to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code, and (c) is sponsored by Longhorn or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing Date (each, a “Longhorn 401(k) Plan”), the assets of each such Longhorn 401(k) Plan shall, as of the Closing Date, consist only of cash, shares of investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended), notes evidencing outstanding participant loans, or such other assets reasonably acceptable to Buyer, but in no event shall such assets include stock or other securities of Seller, any of its Affiliates, Longhorn, or any of its Subsidiaries. Seller shall take such action as is necessary, on or before the Closing Date, to cause each Longhorn Employee to have a fully nonforfeitable right in such Longhorn Employee’s account balance under each such Longhorn 401(k) Plan as of the Closing Date.

(iii) Buyer shall cause to be paid to Longhorn Employees who were age 40 or above with at least five years of service recognized by Longhorn as of December 31, 2010 a “Transition Incentive” pursuant to the terms and conditions of Longhorn’s 2011 Employee Benefits Update dated October 2010 (including the eligibility requirements therein).

(iv) As of the Closing Date, Longhorn Employees shall cease to be eligible for Longhorn’s Voluntary Stock Purchase Plan.

(v) Buyer shall take such steps as are necessary to ensure that each Employee Plan in effect as of the Closing Date may be amended and terminated by Longhorn.

(c) Special Arrangements with Respect to Welfare Benefits. Following the Closing Date, Buyer shall, pursuant to employee benefit plans and arrangements established or maintained by Buyer (the “Buyer Welfare Plans”) (A) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Longhorn Employees under Buyer Welfare Plans, other than limitations that are already in effect with respect to such employees and that have not been satisfied as of the Closing Date under the corresponding Employee Plan, and (B) provide each Longhorn Employee with credit under Buyer Welfare Plans for any co-payments and deductibles paid under the corresponding Employee Plans prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements for the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs. To the extent not inconsistent with applicable Legal Requirements, for purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting (but not benefit accrual) for Longhorn Employees under all Buyer Welfare Plans, Buyer shall recognize service with Longhorn and Seller to the same extent recognized under the corresponding Employee Plans as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date (“Longhorn Service”). In addition, Buyer shall recognize Longhorn Service for purposes of determining the rate of vacation accrual and the level of severance benefits, but not for purposes of the rate of benefit accrual or level of benefits for any other benefit. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.1(c) applies only with respect to Buyer Welfare Plans that cover Longhorn Employees, and nothing in this Section 9.1(c) shall require any Buyer Welfare Plan or other benefit plan or program to cover any Longhorn Employees. Following Closing, Longhorn shall remain liable for the provision of COBRA coverage under Employee Plans to all “M&A qualified beneficiaries” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulations Section 54.4980B-9) with respect to the sale of the Longhorn Entities, to the extent the provision of COBRA coverage is required by applicable law.

(d) No Third Party Beneficiaries. Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (i) all provisions contained in this Section 9.1 with respect to employees are included for the sole benefit of the respective Parties and shall not create any right in any other Person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any plan or arrangement established or maintained by Seller, Buyer, a Longhorn Entity or any of their Affiliates or any beneficiary thereof, or any right to continued employment with Seller, Buyer, a Longhorn Entity or any Affiliate thereof, (ii) nothing in this Section 9.1 shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify an Employee Plan or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement nor shall require any Longhorn Entity or any Affiliate thereof to continue or amend any particular benefit plan after the consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement for any employee or former employee of Seller or any Longhorn Entity or any Affiliate thereof, and (iii) any such plan may be amended or terminated in accordance with its terms and applicable Law.

Section 9.2 Post-Closing Access.

(a) Without limiting the obligations set forth in Section 8.1, following the Closing, each party hereto agrees that it will cooperate with and make available to the other party, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, (i) all books, records and other documents related to the Business or the Longhorn Entities, (ii) information related to the Business or the Longhorn Entities and (iii) Longhorn Employees (without substantial disruption of employment), in each case retained by such party and remaining in existence after the Closing which are necessary or useful in connection with any audit, investigation or dispute, any litigation or investigation or any other matter requiring any such books and records and other documents, information or employees for any reasonable business purpose. The party requesting any such books and records and other documents, information or employees shall bear all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with providing such books and records and other documents, information or employees or the Longhorn Entities. All information received pursuant to this Section 9.2 shall be kept confidential by the party obtaining such information, subject to any disclosure that is required to be made by such party in order to comply with applicable Legal Requirements or the rules or regulations of any securities exchange upon which its securities are traded. Seller also agrees that it will take appropriate measures to ensure that following the Closing its employees no longer have access to Books and Records or to any books and records, and information or documents related to the Business or the Longhorn Entities that are retained by Seller, except to the extent such books, records, documents or information also reasonably relate to the business of Seller and to the extent such access is necessary to perform Seller’s obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Seller shall, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives to, provide customary representations to auditors and any additional financial information and assistance in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by Buyer or its Affiliates in connection with any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission undertaken by Buyer or its Affiliates that includes financial statements of the Business. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its Representatives to assist and cooperate in good faith with Buyer and its Affiliates in preparing audited financial statements of the Business for the stub period ending on the Closing Date, including, if applicable, providing (a) reasonable access to the auditors, auditor workpapers (to the extent permitted by the auditors preparing same), employees, books and records, and any financial data reasonably requested by Buyer relating to the Business, and (b) customary representation letters to auditors. Seller's reasonable out of pocket expenses (including auditors fees that are pre-approved by Buyer) in complying with this Section 9.2(b) shall be reimbursed by Buyer promptly following receipt of an invoice therefor.

Section 9.3 Publicity. Except as required by applicable Legal Requirements, without prior written approval of Buyer and Seller, none of Buyer, Seller or their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall issue any press release or make any public statement regarding this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby other than the fact that Buyer acquired the Business; provided that, following the Closing Date, the provisions of this Section 9.3 shall not apply if the information to be released or announced is otherwise publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement, or (ii) with respect to direct communications with financial analysts or investors so long as such communications are not inconsistent with the parties' prior public disclosures regarding the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 9.4 Confidential Information. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree as follows:

(a) The Parties acknowledge that the Transactions are of a confidential nature and shall not be disclosed except to Representatives and Affiliates, or as required by any applicable Legal Requirements, until such time as the Parties make a public announcement regarding the Transactions as provided in Section 9.3. Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of April 13, 2011, between Seller and Buyer shall terminate with respect to information relating to the Business, Longhorn and the other Longhorn Entities. Buyer acknowledges that any and all other information provided or made available to it by Seller (or its Representatives) concerning Seller or its Affiliates (other than Longhorn and the other Longhorn Entities) will remain subject to the terms and conditions of such Confidentiality Agreement after the Closing.

(b) Seller acknowledges that it and its Affiliates and Representatives have had and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, will have access to confidential and proprietary information related to Buyer and the Longhorn Entities and the Business, in each case, potentially including technical, manufacturing or marketing information, ideas, methods, developments, inventions, improvements, business plans, trade secrets, scientific or statistical data, diagrams, drawings, specifications or other proprietary information related thereto, together with all analyses, compilations, studies or other documents, records or data prepared by Seller, the Longhorn Entities or their respective Representatives or Affiliates, which contain or otherwise reflect or are generated from such information (“Confidential Information”). The term “Confidential Information” does not include information which is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by Seller or its Affiliates.

(c) Seller shall treat all Confidential Information as confidential, preserve the confidentiality thereof and not disclose any such Confidential Information, except to their Representatives and Affiliates who need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the Transactions. Seller shall cause its Representatives to treat all such Confidential Information as confidential, preserve the confidentiality thereof and not disclose any such Confidential Information. Seller shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any of their Representatives. If, however, Confidential Information is disclosed, Seller shall immediately notify Buyer in writing and take all reasonable steps required to prevent further disclosure.

(d) If Seller or any of its respective Representatives or Affiliates is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process) or is required by operation of law to disclose any Confidential Information, Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt written notice of such request or requirement, which notice shall, if practicable, be at least 48 hours prior to making such disclosure, so that Buyer may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of such a waiver, Seller or any of their respective Representatives are nonetheless, in the opinion of counsel, legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information, then Seller may disclose that portion of the Confidential Information which such counsel advises is legally required to be disclosed, provided that such party uses its reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, whereupon such disclosure shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

Section 9.5 Further Assurances.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Parties shall cooperate reasonably with each other in connection with any steps required to be taken in order for the Parties to carry out the intent of this Agreement. Neither Seller, on the one hand, nor Buyer, on the other hand, shall, without the prior written consent of the other party, take any action or refrain from taking any action the intended result of which is to prevent or materially impede, interfere with or unreasonably delay, the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, from time to time after the Closing Date, the Parties hereto agree to (i) furnish upon request to each other such further assurances, information, documents and instruments of transfer or assignment and (ii) do such things and promptly execute, acknowledge, and deliver any such further assurances, documents and instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case that the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement, including taking such steps as are necessary to convey the Longhorn Stock to Buyer. As promptly as possible after the Closing Date, Seller and each of their Subsidiaries shall make any filings and/or give any notices required by applicable Legal Requirements to be made or given by them in order to consummate the Transactions that were not made or given prior to the Closing; and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all required Consents not obtained prior to the Closing.

Section 9.6 Non-Competition.

(a) From the Closing Date until the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), without Buyer’s consent, Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (Seller and its Subsidiaries, the “Restricted Party”) not to, directly or indirectly (including by means of management, advisory, operating, or similar agreements or arrangements or by any record or beneficial equity interest, either as a principal, trustee, stockholder, partner, joint venture or otherwise, in any Person), engage in a business that competes with the Business, for their own account or for any other Person, in any country or other geographic location in which the Longhorn Entities operate the Business or otherwise had sales immediately prior to the Closing or any other country or geographic location in which the Longhorn Entities planned to operate the Business as of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Business”); provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement or in the definition of Restricted Business shall prohibit or in any way restrict the Restricted Party’s ability to:

(i) engage in the Restricted Business to the extent necessary to perform its duties under this Agreement;

(ii) make or maintain passive investments of less than five percent of the outstanding equity securities in any entity engaged in the Restricted Businesses listed for trading on any recognized securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets;

(iii) own an equity interest of any other Person engaged in the Restricted Business acquired as a creditor in bankruptcy other than by a voluntary investment decision; or

(iv) acquire the assets or capital stock or other equity interests of any other Person engaged in the Restricted Business, provided, however, that the net sales attributable to the Restricted Business conducted by such person accounts for less than 25% of the net sales of such person for its most recently completed fiscal year.

(b) The Parties agree that this covenant is personal to Buyer and Buyer may not assign or otherwise transfer this covenant, in whole or in part, to any Person other than to other Affiliates of Buyer. During the Restricted Period, Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, without the prior written consent of Buyer, directly or indirectly, induce or attempt to induce any customer, reseller, retailer, distributor, supplier, licensee or other Person to cease doing business with Buyer or the Longhorn Entities or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, reseller, retailer, distributor, supplier, licensee or other Person and Buyer or the Longhorn Entities.

(c) Seller agrees that any remedy at law for any breach by it or its Affiliates of Section 9.6(a) or (b) would be inadequate, and Buyer shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief in such case in addition to any other right Buyer may have, whether at law or in equity. Each party intends that the provisions of this Section 9.6 be enforced under the laws applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If any provision of this Section 9.6 shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, this Section 9.6 shall be amended to revise the scope of such provision to make it enforceable, if possible, or, if not possible, to delete such provision, in either case, without affecting the other or remaining provisions of this Section 9.6 or this Agreement. Any invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Section 9.6 in a jurisdiction will not affect the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.7 Non-Solicitation.

(a) Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, during the period from the Closing Date until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, contact, approach or solicit for the purpose of offering employment to or hiring (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise), or hire, any person employed by Buyer (with respect to the Business) or the Longhorn Entities (or their respective Affiliates or successors-in-interest to the extent related to the Business) (other than employees whose annual base compensation is less than $75,000).

(b) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, during the period from the Closing Date until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, contact, approach or solicit for the purpose of offering employment to or hiring (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise), or hire, any person employed by Seller (or its Affiliates or successors-in-interest), in either case for a position with Buyer or any of its Affiliates related to the Business (other than employees whose annual base compensation is less than $75,000).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that the provisions of Section 9.7(a) and Section 9.7(b) shall not prohibit (i) the hiring of a person whose employment was terminated by his or her respective employer (or its Affiliates) and who was not solicited by the other party (or its Affiliates in violation of Section 9.7(a) or (b), as applicable, or (ii) solicitation by way of general advertising, including general solicitations in any local, regional or national newspapers or other publications or circulars or on internet sites or any search firm engagement which is not directed or focused on employees of Buyer, or Seller or their respective Affiliates as applicable.

(d) The Parties agree that the restraints created by the covenants in this Section 9.7 are no greater than necessary to protect the Parties’ respective legitimate interests, that damages would be an inadequate remedy and that a Person seeking to enforce this Section 9.7 shall be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for any breach hereof. Furthermore, the Parties agree that such covenants do not hinder, or otherwise cause hardship to, any party or its Affiliates with respect to finding other employees or any party’s or its Affiliates’ employees with respect to finding employment elsewhere. Similarly, the Parties agree that no party’s need for the protection afforded by the covenants of this Section 9.7 is outweighed by either the hardship to any other party or its Affiliates or any public interest. The existence of any claim or cause of action of a party against another party, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by a party of the covenants contained in this Section 9.7. Should any portion of the covenants in this Section 9.7 be held to be wholly or partially invalid or unenforceable because such portion is held to be overly broad or unreasonable in scope, such holding shall not invalidate or void the remainder of this Section 9.7 or this Agreement, and the portions held to be overly broad or unreasonable in scope shall be revised and reduced in scope so as to be valid and enforceable, and shall be enforced as so reformed, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Section 9.8 Prohibition on Use of Seller Brand. From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall not use, and shall cause all Longhorn Entities following the Closing to cease using, directly or indirectly, the name “Rowan” in any trademark, trade name, domain name, address, corporate name, symbol or identifier of the Business or any derivatives thereof or any marks confusingly similar thereto.

Section 9.9 Insurance. Upon the reasonable request of Buyer, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Longhorn Entities or their transferee(s) or assignee(s) in tendering claims for any loss, Liability, claim, damage or expense of any Longhorn Entities or their transferee(s) or assignee(s) (including products and current and former employees and directors thereof) or of any of their respective predecessors and arising out of occurrences prior to the Closing Date (a “Longhorn Insured Loss”) to the applicable insurers under any insurance policies covering, prior to the Closing Date, the assets, businesses, operations, employees, officers or directors of any of the Longhorn Entities or their predecessors, including but not limited to the Insurance Policies, and to provide Longhorn or its transferee(s) or assignee(s) with the proceeds of claims made by or with respect to such Longhorn Insured Losses subject to the self-insured limits and deductibles under the applicable policy, which shall be for the account of Buyer. Subsequent to the Closing, Buyer or its transferee(s) or assignee(s) shall assume responsibility for the administration and adjustment of all Longhorn Insured Losses and Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Longhorn Entities or their transferee(s) or assignee(s) in such administration and adjustment when Seller’s involvement is required by an insurer or a particular insurance policy.

In the event any such insurance policies have coverage triggers other than occurrence (such as claims made or occurrences as reported) and events unknown to Seller or any Longhorn Entity have occurred prior to the Closing Date that could not have been reported to underwriters prior to the Closing Date, it may not be possible for Buyer or any Longhorn Entity or their respective transferees or assignees to access such policies. Further, Seller and its Affiliates make no representation or warranty that such insurance policies will respond to Buyer or any Longhorn Entity or their respective transferees or assignees in the event claims are made subsequent to the Closing Date.

Section 9.10 Warranty. From and after the Closing Date, the parties agree that Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, submit product warranty claims to any Longhorn Entity for products delivered or commissioned for delivery from any Longhorn Entity prior to the Closing Date, and for the products to be delivered under the Contract referred to in Section 2.3(h), in an aggregate amount in excess of approximately $2.7 million (which amount shall be updated by Seller in good faith at the Closing by written notice to Buyer), and any such warranty claims in excess thereof shall be released and discharged.

Seller shall, at all times during the life of any Longhorn drilling rigs it owns (whether now or in the future), prominently display the “XxXxxxxxxx” name and class designation on such rigs (the “Rig Names”) and identify it as a Longhorn design and class. Seller may also use the Rig Names in its marketing or other written or electronic materials to identify the Rigs.

(e) by either Buyer or Seller if there shall be any Legal Requirement that makes consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited or if consummation of the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement would violate any non-appealable Order of any Governmental Entity having competent jurisdiction.

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination. The Parties’ termination rights under Section 10.1 are in addition to any other rights they may have under this Agreement or otherwise, and the exercise of a right of termination hereunder will not be an election of remedies. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10.1, all further obligations of the Parties under this Agreement will terminate; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated by Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, because of the willful breach of this Agreement by the other or because one or more of the conditions to the terminating Parties’ obligations under this Agreement is not satisfied as a result of the other Parties’ failure to comply with any of their obligations under this Agreement, the terminating Parties’ right to pursue all legal remedies will survive such termination unimpaired; provided further, that the provisions of Section 9.4, this Section 10.2, and Article 11 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.3 Titles. The titles, captions or headings of the Articles and Sections herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits hereto, the Disclosure Letter and the other agreements, documents and written understandings referred to herein or otherwise entered into or delivered by the Parties hereto on the date of this Agreement, constitute the entire agreement and understanding and supersede all other prior covenants, agreements, undertakings, obligations, promises, arrangements, communications, representations and warranties, whether oral or written, by any party hereto or by any director, officer, employee, agent, Affiliate or Representative of any party hereto. There are no covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement other than those expressly set forth or referred to herein or in other agreements, documents and written understandings entered into or delivered by the Parties hereto on the date of this Agreement, and no representations or warranties of any kind or nature whatsoever, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, are made or shall be deemed to be made herein by the Parties hereto except those expressly made herein.

Section 11.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer or by Buyer without the prior written consent of Seller; provided, however, that (without the consent of Seller) Buyer may assign this Agreement in whole or in part to any of its Affiliates (including, without limitation, Buyer’s right to acquire the Longhorn Stock); provided further that no such assignment shall release the assignor from any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 11.6 Amendment or Modification. This Agreement may not be amended except in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties hereto. No amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby.

Section 11.7 Waiver. Except where a specific period for action or inaction is provided herein, neither the failure nor any delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any waiver on the part of any party of any such right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege. The failure of a party to exercise any right conferred herein within the time required shall cause such right to terminate with respect to the transaction or circumstances giving rise to such right, but not to any such right arising as a result of any other transactions or circumstances.

Section 11.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms or other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.

Section 11.9 Burden and Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of, the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement and all of its conditions and provisions are for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties hereto any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement or any provision hereof; provided, however, that any Person that is not a party to this Agreement but, by the terms of Section 7.2, is entitled to indemnification, of the indemnification provisions set forth herein shall be considered a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, with full rights of enforcement of the indemnification provisions set forth herein as though such Person was a signatory to this Agreement.

Section 11.10 Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement) shall be governed by the law of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any law other than the law of the State of Delaware.

EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.11.

Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Chancery Court, any other Delaware state court, and any Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the agreements delivered in connection herewith or the Transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (A) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding except in such courts, (B) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Delaware Chancery Court, any other Delaware State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, (C) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in any such Delaware Chancery Court or other Delaware State or Federal court, and (D) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such Delaware Chancery Court or other Delaware State or Federal court. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.2. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 11.14 Specific Performance. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the other Parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise are breached.

Section 11.17 Representation by Counsel. Each party hereto represents and agrees with each other that it has been represented by or had the opportunity to be represented by, independent counsel of its own choosing, and that it has had the full right and opportunity to consult with its respective attorney(s), that to the extent, if any, that it desired, it availed itself of this right and opportunity, that it or its authorized officers (as the case may be) have carefully read and fully understand this Agreement in its entirety and have had it fully explained to them by such party’s respective counsel, that each is fully aware of the contents thereof and its meaning, intent and legal effect, and that it or its authorized officer (as the case may be) is competent to execute this Agreement and has executed this Agreement free from coercion, duress or undue influence.
