(ix) such other instruments of conveyance (such as patent assignments, trademark assignments, real estate deeds, assigned certificates or documents of title and assigned negotiable instruments) as Buyer may reasonably request in order to effect the sale, assignment, transfer and delivery to Buyer or its designee of good and valid title to the Acquired FH Assets free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances), in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer and duly executed by the applicable FH Asset Seller; and

(x) all other documents expressly required to be delivered by Seller or its Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.3 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Preliminary Purchase Price Adjustment. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer (together with reasonable backup materials) a statement in the form set forth on Section 2.3(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter (the “Estimated Statement”) setting forth Seller’s good faith estimate of the Closing Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), as prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles. For purposes of the calculation of Net Working Capital of the FH Business, all FH Shares, Acquired FH Assets and FH Assets shall be deemed to have been conveyed as of the Effective Time (regardless of any delayed transfer pursuant to Section 5.16 or Section 5.17) and shall be included, to the extent applicable, in the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital.

(b) Post-Closing Purchase Price Determination.

(i) As soon as practicable, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer (together with reasonable backup materials) a statement (the “Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement”), prepared by Seller in accordance with the Accounting Principles and in substantially the same format as the Estimated Statement, containing a reasonably detailed calculation by Seller of the Closing Net Working Capital.

(ii) If Buyer disagrees with Seller’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital as set forth in the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement, Buyer shall promptly, but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after receiving the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement (the “Review Period”) deliver to Seller written notice (the “Dispute Notice”) describing its dispute by specifying those items or amounts as to which Buyer disagrees, together with Buyer’s determination of such disputed items and amounts (the “Disputed Items”). If Buyer either gives notice that it agrees with Seller’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital as set forth in the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement or fails to deliver a Dispute Notice within the Review Period, Seller and Buyer agree that the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement shall be deemed to set forth the Closing Net Working Capital with respect to those items that have been agreed upon or for which Buyer shall have failed to deliver a Dispute Notice (and shall constitute the Final Net Working Capital). If Buyer delivers a Dispute Notice to Seller within the Review Period, Buyer and Seller will use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute during the thirty (30)-day period commencing on the date Buyer delivers the Dispute Notice to Seller. If Seller and Buyer are not able to resolve all Disputed Items within such thirty (30)-day period, then either party shall have the right to submit the Disputed Items remaining in dispute following the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period to the New York, New York office of Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP, or if Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP is unwilling to serve, another mutually acceptable internationally recognized independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”). Subject to the Accounting Firm’s execution of a customary confidentiality agreement, the Accounting Firm shall be given reasonable access to all relevant records of the FH Business to calculate the Closing Net Working Capital. If any remaining Disputed Items are submitted to the Accounting Firm for resolution, each of Buyer and Seller shall submit to the Accounting Firm (with a copy to the other party) a written memorandum setting forth such party’s positions with respect to such Disputed Items and may

include with such submission reasonable backup materials. The Accounting Firm shall calculate, based solely on the written submissions of Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, and not by independent investigation, the Closing Net Working Capital and shall be instructed that its calculation (A) must be made in accordance with the Accounting Principles and Section 2.3(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter, and (B) with respect to each item in dispute, must be within the range of values established for such amount as determined by reference to the value assigned to such amount by Buyer in the Dispute Notice and by Seller in the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement. The Accounting Firm shall submit such calculation to Seller and Buyer as soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the remaining issues in dispute are submitted to the Accounting Firm. The determination by the Accounting Firm of the Closing Net Working Capital, as set forth in a written notice delivered to Buyer and Seller by the Accounting Firm in accordance with this Agreement, will be binding and conclusive on Buyer and Seller, except in cases of fraud or manifest error. A judgment on the determination made by the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) may be entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction thereover. The Closing Net Working Capital as determined after all disputes have been resolved in accordance with this Section 2.3(b)(ii) is referred to herein as the “Final Net Working Capital”.

(iii) The costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by Buyer in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the items that are successfully disputed by Seller (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of the items submitted to the Accounting Firm and by Seller in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items that are unsuccessfully disputed by Buyer (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of the items submitted to the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall include such apportionment of its fees and expenses in its determination.

(iv) In connection with Buyer’s review of the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement, Seller shall (i) provide reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to its employees and all work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared or reviewed by Seller or any of its employees and accountants or other representatives which are relevant to the Preliminary Net Working Capital Statement (which access shall be provided promptly after request by Buyer and/or its representatives) and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to cause Seller’s independent accountant to communicate and cooperate with Buyer and its representatives with respect to such review. The Review Period shall be extended by one day for each day that Seller is in breach of its obligations under the preceding sentence.

(v) The process set forth in this Section 2.3(b) shall be the exclusive remedy of Seller and Buyer for any disputes related to the Closing Net Working Capital, provided that this clause (v) shall not preclude or impair the ability of any party to exercise any of its rights or remedies under Section 9.4 provided that no Person shall be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.4 for any Losses to the extent such Losses represent amounts taken into account in the determination of the Final Net Working Capital.

(i) The “Final Cash Purchase Price” shall mean an amount equal to the (1) Preliminary Cash Purchase Price (2) (x) plus, if the Final Net Working Capital as determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(ii) exceeds the Estimated Net Working Capital, the amount of such excess, (y) minus, if the Estimated Net Working Capital exceeds the Final Net Working Capital as determined pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(ii), the amount of such excess (the “Final Closing Adjustment”), (3) (x) plus if the Primary U.S. Asset Transfer Amount exceeds the Estimated U.S. Asset Transfer Amount, the amount of such excess, (y) minus, if the Estimated U.S. Asset Transfer Amount exceeds the Primary U.S. Asset Transfer Amount, the amount of such excess (the “Final Pension Adjustment”). The “Final Purchase Price” shall mean the Final Cash Purchase Price and the Buyer Stock Consideration, together.

(ii) Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall, within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Final Net Working Capital pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(ii) make payment to the other by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the other of the amount of the Final Closing Adjustment as determined pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller agrees to make one or more installment payments toward the payment provided for in the first sentence of this Section 2.3(c)(ii) at such times as amounts reflected in the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital become fixed and are not Disputed Items and the non-Disputed Items are such that a payment would be due and owing to Buyer pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.3(c)(ii). Similarly, Buyer agrees to make one or more installment payments toward the payment provided for in the first sentence of this Section 2.3(c)(ii) at such times as amounts reflected in the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital become fixed and are not Disputed Items and the non-Disputed Items are such that a payment would be due and owing to Seller pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.3(c)(ii). The final installment payment to be made after the determination of Final Net Working Capital shall take into account all previously-made installment payments.

(iii) Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall within five (5) Business Days after the U.S. Pension Transfer Date make payment to the other by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the other of the Final Pension Adjustment.

Section 2.4 Allocation of Purchase Price. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide to Seller an allocation of the Final Purchase Price (including an allocation of the Buyer Stock Consideration and Final Cash Purchase Price) and the Assumed Liabilities, to the extent relevant, together with any other amounts properly treated as consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including adjustments to the Final Purchase Price or the Assumed Liabilities for purposes of this Agreement) among the Acquired FH Assets and the FH Shares and, to the extent relevant, the assets of the Transferred FH Companies, in accordance with Sections 338(b)(5) and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and Section 2.4 of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). Prior to and after the Closing Date, Seller shall cooperate as reasonably requested by Buyer, including providing any information reasonably requested by Buyer that is reasonably available to Seller, to enable Buyer and its accountants to prepare timely the Purchase Price Allocation. Seller shall be permitted to review the Purchase Price Allocation delivered by Buyer and shall provide any comments thereon to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of Seller’s receipt of the

Purchase Price Allocation. Buyer and Seller shall use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute regarding preparation of the Purchase Price Allocation. If Buyer and Seller cannot resolve any such dispute within fifteen (15) days of Buyer’s receipt of Seller’s comments, such dispute shall be taken to the Independent Accountants. The costs of the Independent Accountants shall be borne by the party that loses the dispute. The Purchase Price Allocation as finally agreed between Seller and Buyer or as finally determined by the Independent Accountants, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter is referred to as the “Final Purchase Price Allocation.” Seller and Buyer shall be bound by the Final Purchase Price Allocation for all Tax purposes, shall prepare and file all Tax Returns (including Form 8883 and any supplements thereto) on a basis consistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation and shall not take any position inconsistent with the Final Purchase Price Allocation on any Tax Return or in any proceeding before any Tax Authority, in each case except as otherwise required by applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer and Seller agree that for purposes of the Purchase Price Allocation and the Final Purchase Price Allocation, no amount of the Buyer Stock Consideration shall be allocated to any FH Share Seller or FH Asset Seller that is not (a) a member of Seller’s U.S. consolidated group or (b) an entity disregarded as separate from a member of Seller’s U.S. consolidated group, in each case as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Section 2.5 Adjustments to Buyer Stock Consideration. If at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock of Buyer shall occur as a result of any reclassification, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or stock distribution with a record date during such period, the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock constituting the Buyer Stock Consideration shall be equitably adjusted; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to permit or authorize any such change that is not otherwise authorized or permitted pursuant to this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

such Liability to a Transferred FH Company or their Closing Subsidiaries.

Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the FH Business, taken as a whole, no Transferred Benefit Plan is or since December 31, 2013 has been the subject of, or has received or provided notice that it is the subject of, examination by a Governmental Authority or been a participant in a government sponsored amnesty, voluntary compliance or similar program.

(h) Each Employee Benefit Plan covering any Employee or Former Employee subject to U.S. income Taxes and that is or forms part of a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code has been administered in documentary and operational compliance in all material respects with Section 409A of the Code.

All such information and access

shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the confidentiality agreement dated May 8, 2017 between Buyer and Seller (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to provide any such information (i) as and to the extent it relates to the Excluded Businesses, the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities, (ii) if the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries believes in good faith that doing so presents a significant risk, based on advice of outside counsel of resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege or (iii) if Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation (other than a litigation with respect to this Agreement) and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided, further, that, in the case of clause (ii) above, the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information without resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege.

Section 5.3 Certain Governmental Approvals.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts (subject to, and in accordance with, Regulatory Law) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Regulatory Laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as promptly as practicable.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the undertakings pursuant to Section 5.3(a) above:

(i) Seller and Buyer shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than (x) ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, file the notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act and (y) fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, effect all other necessary notifications, or registrations to obtain the Required Antitrust Approvals, in each case as required for the transactions contemplated hereby;

(ii) Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in (A) determining whether any filings are required to be made with, or consents, permits, authorizations, waivers or approvals are required to be obtained from, any third parties or other Governmental Authorities under any other applicable Regulatory Law in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) timely making all such filings and timely seeking all such consents, permits, authorizations or approvals;

(iii) Seller and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to make, as promptly as practicable following the date hereof, any filings or notifications with the State Department’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls that are required under ITAR, including applicable notifications contemplated under 22 C.F.R. § 122.4.

(iv) Seller and Buyer shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and promptly furnish the other with copies of notices or other communications (or, in the case of

material oral communications, advise the other orally of such communications) between Seller or Buyer and their representatives and counsel, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, and any Governmental Authority with respect to such transactions. Seller and Buyer shall keep each other timely apprised of any inquiries or requests for additional information from any Governmental Authority pursuant to any Regulatory Law, and shall comply promptly with any such reasonable inquiry or request. Seller and Buyer shall permit counsel for the other party reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other party in connection with, any proposed written communication to any Governmental Authority. Each of Seller and Buyer agrees not to participate in any substantive meeting or discussion, either in person or by telephone, with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate. Neither party shall consent to any voluntary extension of any statutory deadline or waiting period or to any voluntary delay of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or withdraw its notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act or any other filing made pursuant to any Regulatory Law unless the other party has given its prior written consent to such extension or delay; and

(v) without limiting Section 5.3(b)(iv) above, each of Seller and Buyer, in the event that any permanent or preliminary injunction or other order is entered or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered in any proceeding that would make consummation of the acquisition of the FH Shares, the Acquired FH Assets or the other transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms of this Agreement unlawful or that would prevent or delay consummation of the acquisition of the FH Shares, the Acquired FH Assets or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall use its reasonable best efforts necessary to vacate, modify or suspend such injunction or order so as to permit such consummation on a schedule as close as possible to that contemplated by this Agreement unless, by mutual agreement, Seller and Buyer decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests.

(c) In the event that (i) any Non-Material Antitrust Approval of any Governmental Authority is not obtained on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii) there exists, at such time as the conditions to the Closing shall have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that are satisfied by action taken at the Closing, provided, that such conditions would be so satisfied), any Regulatory Law (except with respect to the Required Antitrust Approvals) that makes illegal or enjoins or prevents in any respect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each of clauses (i) and (ii), a “Delayed Antitrust Approval”), then Seller and Buyer shall effect the Closing (including payment of the entire Preliminary Purchase Price), subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, Section 8.1(b)), with respect to all FH Shares, the Acquired FH Assets and Assumed Liabilities outside of the jurisdiction of any such Governmental Authority or such Regulatory Law; provided, however, that the obligations of the parties hereto set forth in this Section 5.3 shall continue with respect to each such Delayed Antitrust Approval until such Delayed Antitrust Approval is obtained, and upon receipt of such Delayed Antitrust Approval, the parties hereto shall effect the transfer of the affected FH Shares, Acquired FH Assets and Assumed Liabilities in accordance with this Agreement and the applicable Local Purchase Agreement. Each such transfer, upon occurrence, shall be retroactive to and be deemed to have occurred on the Closing Date.

Furthermore, as of the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall, subject to applicable Law, enter into mutually agreeable alternative business arrangements consistent with the terms of this Agreement or other arrangements which provide Buyer with the net economic benefit or loss (after taking into account any adverse Tax consequences to Seller) of, and liability for, the affected FH Shares, the FH Assets and Assumed Liabilities from and after the Closing Date and continuing until each Delayed Antitrust Approval is obtained. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Delayed Antitrust Approval has not been obtained within twenty-four (24) months of the Closing Date, Seller shall have the right at any time thereafter, in its sole discretion, to sell any of the affected FH Shares, the FH Assets or Assumed Liabilities to a third party at a price determined in good faith by Seller to be a commercially reasonable price, and upon consummation of any such sale, (x) Seller shall pay the proceeds of such sale to Buyer (provided that Seller may reduce such payment by an amount equal to its fees and expenses (or an estimate thereof) and any Taxes payable as a result of such sale) and (y) the obligations of the parties pursuant to this Section 5.3(c) (other than pursuant to the preceding clause (x)) with respect to such FH Shares, the FH Assets or Assumed Liabilities shall cease.

(d) None of Buyer or the Subsidiaries of Buyer shall, and shall not cause any Person to, without the prior consent of Seller, acquire (whether via merger, consolidation, stock or asset purchase or otherwise), or enter into any definitive agreement to so acquire, any assets of or any equity in any other Person or any business or division thereof (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any acquisition of any goods or services in the ordinary course of business), unless that acquisition or agreement would not reasonably be expected to, in any material respect, (x) increase the risk of not obtaining any authorizations, consents, orders, declarations or approvals of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under any Regulatory Law; (y) increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (z) delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of Buyer Common Stock constituting the Buyer Stock Consideration to be approved for listing on the NYSE, with such listing to be effective as of the Closing, subject only to official notice of issuance.

Section 5.4 Further Assurances. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and subject to Section 5.3, each of the parties hereto agrees to use its reasonable best efforts before and after the Closing Date to take or cause to be taken all action, to do or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other party hereto in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, but not limited to, (i) the satisfaction of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the other party; (ii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from Governmental Authorities or other third parties required to be obtained by such party, or its Affiliates, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (other than with respect to Regulatory Laws which are the subject of Section 5.3); and (iii) the execution and delivery of such instruments, and the taking of such other actions, as the other party hereto may reasonably require in order to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

Section 5.5 Intercompany Accounts and Arrangements.

(a) Except for the Transition Services Agreement, Local Purchase Agreements and the other Transaction Documents, intercompany accounts not settled or cancelled as of the Closing pursuant to Section 5.5(e) or the agreements set forth on Section 5.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter hereto, all intercompany arrangements and agreements, whether written or oral, providing, leasing or licensing goods, services, tangible or intangible properties or joint activities between Seller or any of the Retained Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of the Transferred FH Companies or their Closing Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall be terminated and of no further force and effect effective as of the Closing (or, to the extent that any equity interests in a Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary of a Transferred FH Company are not transferred to Buyer at the Closing pursuant to Section 5.16 or Section 5.17, such later date on which all such equity interests are transferred to Buyer).

(b) Except to the extent provided to the contrary in Section 5.5(a), effective as of the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries, effective as of the Closing, hereby releases Seller and each of the Retained Subsidiaries (and their respective officers, directors and employees, acting in their capacity as such) from any Liability, obligation or responsibility to any of them for any and all past actions or failures to take action prior to the Closing, including any actions which may be deemed to have been negligent or grossly negligent, relating to or arising out of Contracts with Seller or a Subsidiary thereof or the operation or conduct of any businesses, Assets (including activities performed thereat) or operations managed or operated by, or operationally related to, directly or indirectly, to the FH Business or the Excluded Businesses, except for any obligation pursuant to the provisions of the Transaction Documents.

(c) Except to the extent provided to the contrary in Section 5.5(a), effective as of the Closing, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, including each of the Retained Subsidiaries, effective as of the Closing, hereby releases the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries (and their respective officers, directors and employees, acting in their capacity as such) from any Liability, obligation or responsibility to any of them for any and all past actions or failures to take action prior to the Closing, including any actions which may be deemed to have been negligent or grossly negligent, except for any obligation pursuant to the provisions of the Transaction Documents.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Seller its Subsidiaries and the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries shall be permitted to maintain through the Closing Date their respective cash management systems, and periodically settle intercompany balances with respect to intercompany borrowings consistent with past practices (including through dividends and capital contributions). Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries) shall have the right to withdraw all Cash Equivalents of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries prior to the Closing.

(e) Without limiting anything set forth in this Section 5.5, of Seller’s Disclosure Letter, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to settle all outstanding intercompany accounts, whether payables or receivables, between Seller or any of the Retained Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of the Transferred FH Companies or their Closing Subsidiaries, on the other hand, with effect as of the Closing Date (it being understood that the settlement or cancellation of such amounts shall not in any way affect the Transition Services Agreement or any amounts which may be payable pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement); provided, however, that if any such intercompany accounts are not settled or cancelled as of the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to settle or cancel such intercompany accounts as promptly as practicable following the Closing without liability to Buyer (which liability shall be calculated net of any Cash Equivalents of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries as of the Closing that would otherwise constitute Excluded Assets, which Cash Equivalents shall not constitute Excluded Assets or constitute Later Discovered Assets to the extent used by Buyer to satisfy such intercompany accounts).

Section 5.6 Provision of Corporate Records.

(a) As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, as permitted by Law, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer all Transferred FH Books and Records then in the possession of Seller or any Retained Subsidiary, and Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller all Seller Books and Records then in the possession of any Transferred FH Company or any of its Closing Subsidiaries. The foregoing shall be limited by the following specific provisions:

(i) To the extent any document (other than that stored on electronic media) can be subdivided without unreasonable effort into two portions, one of which constitutes a Transferred FH Book and Record and the other of which constitutes a Seller Book and Record, such document (other than that stored on electronic media) shall be so sub-divided, and the original of the portion such document (other than that stored on electronic media) which constitutes a Transferred FH Book and Record shall be provided to Buyer (with a copy thereof provided to Seller) and the original of the portion such document (other than that stored on electronic media) shall constitute a Seller Book and Record.

(ii) For purposes of this Section 5.6, “reasonable best efforts” shall require, without limitation, deliveries of any such specific and discrete books and records requested in writing by either party and then in the possession of the other party.

If either party has a reasonable concern regarding the other party’s use of such books and records, such party may, upon reasonable prior written notice and at such party’s expense, audit the other party’s use of such books and records at times and in a manner reasonably acceptable to all parties.

(c) Each party may refuse to furnish any Information if it believes in good faith that doing so presents, based on advice of counsel (which can be inside counsel), a significant risk of loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege; provided, that the parties hereto shall cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information without resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege.

(d) Neither party shall be required to deliver to the other books and records or portions thereof (i) if such delivery would violate any applicable Law or (ii) which are subject to confidentiality agreements which would by their terms prohibit such delivery; provided, however, if requested by the other party, such party shall use its reasonable best efforts to seek a waiver of such confidentiality restriction.

To the extent that Seller or the Retained Subsidiaries have performance obligations under any Seller Guarantee, Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) perform such obligations on behalf of Seller and the Retained Subsidiaries or (y) otherwise take such action as reasonably requested by Seller so as to put Seller and the Retained Subsidiaries in the same position as if Buyer, and not Seller or a Retained Subsidiary, had performed or were performing such obligations.

(c) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to replace all letters of credit issued by Seller or the Retained Subsidiaries on behalf of or in favor of any of the Transferred FH Companies, any of their Closing Subsidiaries or the FH Business (the “Seller LCs”) as promptly as practicable with letters of credit from Buyer or one of its Affiliates as of the Closing Date. With respect to any Seller LCs that remain outstanding after the Closing Date, Buyer shall (i) indemnify and hold harmless Seller Indemnified Parties for any Losses arising from or relating to such letters of credit, including any fees in connection with the issuance and maintenance thereof, in each case solely to the extent related to the period after the Closing, and (ii) without the prior written consent of Seller, Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall not, and shall not permit any of the Transferred FH Companies or any of their Closing Subsidiaries or Affiliates to, enter into, renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or transfer to a third party, any loan, lease, Contract or other obligation in connection with which Seller or any Retained Subsidiary has issued any letters of credit which remain outstanding. The parties hereto agree that neither Seller nor any of the Retained Subsidiaries will have any obligation to renew any letters of credit issued on behalf of any Transferred FH Company (or any Closing Subsidiary thereof) or the FH Business after the expiration of any such letter of credit.

(d) For purposes of this Section 5.8, with respect to Seller, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not require Seller to, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries to, make or accelerate any payment under any loan, Contract or other obligation for which Seller or any Retained Subsidiary is or may be liable under any Seller Guarantee or Seller LC.

Section 5.9 Post-Closing Access to Information. For a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date, except as prohibited by applicable Law, Seller and Buyer shall, subject to compliance by the other with the provisions of Section 5.12 and the Transition Services Agreement, afford to each other and to each other’s Representatives reasonable access and duplicating rights (with copying costs to be borne by the requesting party) during normal business hours to all books and records, documents and other information (collectively, “Information”) within the knowledge, possession or control of the other party or its Affiliates solely to the extent relating to (a) in the case of requests by Buyer, the FH Business, Transferred FH Companies (and their Closing Subsidiaries), FH Assets, the Acquired FH Assets, Assumed Liabilities or Transferred Employees and (b) in the case of requests by Seller, the Excluded Businesses, the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities, insofar in each case as such access is reasonably required by Seller or Buyer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates for legitimate business reasons and does not violate any applicable Law or any confidentiality obligations applicable to Seller or Buyer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as the case may be (and shall use reasonable efforts to cause persons or firms possessing relevant Information to give similar access) and, to the extent practicable, such Information is identified by the requesting party with reasonable specificity; provided, however, that no party shall be required to disclose any Information if (i) it believes in good faith that doing so presents a significant risk, based on advice of counsel (which can be inside counsel) of resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege or (ii) Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation (other

than a litigation with respect to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement) and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided, further, that, in the case of clause (i) above, the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information without resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege; provided, further, that Seller and its Affiliates shall not be required to provide Buyer or its Representatives with any information related to the Sale Process or Seller’s or its Representatives’ evaluation thereof, including projections, financial or other information related thereto other than projections, financial or other information prepared in the ordinary course of the FH Business without being primarily prepared for the Sale Process. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Information may be requested under this Section 5.9 for audit and accounting purposes and in connection with Actions, as well as for purposes of fulfilling disclosure and reporting obligations.

Section 5.10 Production of Witnesses and Individuals. From and after the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall use and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use reasonable efforts to make available to each other, upon written request, its officers, directors, employees and agents for fact finding, consultation and interviews and as witnesses to the extent that any such person may reasonably be required in connection with any Actions in which the requesting party may from time to time be involved relating to the conduct of the FH Business or the Excluded Businesses. Seller and Buyer agree to reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (other than officers’ or employees’ salaries) incurred by the other in connection with providing individuals and witnesses pursuant to this Section 5.10. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.10 shall not apply to Actions brought between Seller and its Affiliates (but not including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates (including after the Closing Date, the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries) on the other hand.

Section 5.11 Retention of Records. Except when a longer retention period is otherwise required by Law or agreed to in writing, including as set forth in Section 7.7, Seller and its Subsidiaries and the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries shall retain, in accordance with their respective records control schedule policy existing from time to time, all Information relating to the FH Business and the Excluded Businesses, respectively. The parties hereto agree that upon written request from the other that certain Information relating to the FH Business or the transactions contemplated hereby be retained in connection with an Action, the parties shall use reasonable efforts to preserve and not to destroy or dispose of such Information without the consent of the requesting party.

Section 5.12 Confidentiality.

(a) For a period of five (5) years from the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall hold and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries) to hold, and shall each use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence and not to disclose or release without the prior written consent of the other party, any and all Confidential Information (as defined herein); provided, that the parties may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to their respective Representatives who have a need to know such information and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the

same extent as is applicable to the parties hereto and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, will be responsible or (ii) if the parties hereto, their Affiliates or their Representatives are compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of independent legal counsel, by other requirements of Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which both parties will reasonably cooperate in obtaining (each at their own expense). In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the party who is required to disclose such Confidential Information shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed. As used in this Section 5.12, “Confidential Information” shall mean all proprietary technical, economic, environmental, operational, financial and/or other business Information or material of one party which, prior to or following the Closing Date, has been disclosed by Seller or its Affiliates, on the one hand, or Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), on the other hand, in written, oral (including by recording), electronic, or visual form to, or otherwise has come into the possession of, the other, in each case including pursuant to the access provisions of Section 5.9 hereof or any other provision of this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement or, (A) in the case of Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives, to the extent relating to the FH Business or the FH Assets prior to the Closing or (B) in the case of Buyer and its Affiliates and Representatives, to the extent relating to the Excluded Assets, the Retained Liabilities or the Excluded Businesses, including (a) ideas and concepts for existing products, processes and services; (b) specifications for products, Equipment and processes; (c) manufacturing and performance specifications and procedures; (d) engineering drawings and graphs; (e) technical, research and engineering data; (f) formulations and material specifications; (g) laboratory studies and benchmark tests; (h) service and operation manuals; (i) quality assurance policies, procedures and specifications; (j) evaluation and/or validation studies; (k) pending patent applications; (l) all other know-how, methodology, procedures, techniques and trade secrets related to research, engineering, development and manufacturing; and (m) business information, including marketing and development plans, forecasts, research and development agreements, and customer and vendor information (except to the extent that such Information can be shown to have been (1) in the public domain through no fault of such party or its Affiliates (including, in the case of Seller, any of the Retained Subsidiaries or, in the case of Buyer, any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries)) or (2) lawfully acquired from other sources by the party (or its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries)) to which it was furnished; provided, however, in the case of (2) that such sources did not provide such Information in breach of any confidentiality or other legal obligations). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Seller or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective Representatives from using any Confidential Information used or held for use in any Excluded Business as of the date of this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall be deemed to have satisfied their obligations hereunder with respect to Confidential Information if they exercise the same

degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they take to preserve confidentiality for their own similar Information and (ii) confidentiality obligations provided for in any agreement between Seller or any of its Affiliates, or Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and any employee of Seller or any of its Affiliates (or, prior to the Closing Date, any of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), or Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), on the other hand shall remain in full force and effect. Confidential Information of Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, or the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries, on the other hand, in the possession of and used by the other as of the Closing Date may continue to be used by Seller or its Affiliates, or Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries), as the case may be, in the operation of their businesses with the prior written consent of the other party, so long as the Confidential Information is maintained in confidence and not disclosed in violation of this Agreement. Such continued right to use may not be transferred to any third party (other than an Affiliate of a party hereto) unless the third party purchases all or substantially all of the business and Assets in one transaction or in a series of related transactions for which or in which the relevant Confidential Information is used or employed.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 5.12, to the extent that the Transition Services Agreement or another Contract pursuant to which a party hereto is bound provides that certain Confidential Information shall be maintained confidential on a basis that is more protective of such Confidential Information or for a longer period of time than provided for in this Section 5.12, then the applicable provisions contained in the Transition Services Agreement or other Contract shall control with respect thereto.

Section 5.13 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a) Commencing on and for a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, develop, manufacture, market or sell Products or perform the Services (the “Prohibited Activities”). For the avoidance of doubt, Prohibited Activities do not include, and Seller and its Subsidiaries may engage in, the development, manufacture, marketing and sale of components of Product (but not Product itself) and nothing shall prohibit Howden, a Subsidiary of Seller, from (x) engaging in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of screw compressors for gas compression applications or the sale of auxiliary systems which contain the Product or (y) performing the Services in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; provided, further, that the parties agree that nothing herein shall prohibit Seller and its Subsidiaries from:

(i) acquiring or investing in any Person, or the assets thereof, if less than ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues, assets and income of such Person or assets (based on such Person’s latest annual audited consolidated financial statements) are related to or were derived from any of the Prohibited Activities;

(ii) acquiring or investing in any Person, or the assets thereof, if ten percent (10%) or more than ten percent (10%) of the gross revenues, assets and income of such Person or assets (based on such Person’s latest annual audited consolidated financial statements)

are related to or were derived from any of the Prohibited Activities; provided, that within one year of such acquisition, Seller or its Subsidiaries enter into a definitive agreement to divest themselves of all or substantially all of the assets or operations so acquired that are engaged in any of the Prohibited Activities (and use reasonable best efforts to consummate such transaction as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter);

(iii) acquiring or investing in securities representing not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting power of any Person; or

(iv) acquiring or investing in any equity interest in any Person through any employee benefit plan of Seller or its Subsidiaries.

(b) Commencing on and for a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment (whether as an employee, consultant or otherwise), offer to hire, hire or enter into any employment or consulting agreement or arrangement with any Transferred Employee or employee, contractor, subcontractor, consultant or sales representative of the FH Business; provided, that this prohibition shall not apply to (i) solicitation of any such individual who has been terminated by Buyer or its Affiliates more than six (6) months prior to such time, (ii) solicitations made to the public or the industry generally through advertising or electronic listing which are not targeted at employees of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or (iii) hirings of persons either (A) in connection with solicitations permitted under clause (i) or (ii) or (B) who independently approach such party and, in each of subclauses (A) and (B), whom were not otherwise solicited in breach of this Section 5.13(b).

(c) The parties agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of Section 5.13(a) and Section 5.13(b) shall not prohibit (i) Seller or any of its Subsidiaries from performing under any Contract or owning or operating any other Asset that constitutes an FH Asset which is not transferred, conveyed or assigned to Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date or (ii) Seller or any of its Subsidiaries from performing its obligations under this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement.

(d) The following terms used in this Agreement shall have the following meanings:

(i) “Product” shall mean progressive cavity, two- and three-screw pumps, centrifugal pumps, seawater cooling pumps, internal gear pumps, oil mist lubrication systems and heat transfer fluid pumps, oil purification equipment, lubrication distribution systems, oil mist generators and bearing lubrication systems of the same or similar type as those developed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Transferred FH Companies (and their Closing Subsidiaries), the FH Asset Sellers and the FH Affiliates as of the date hereof or as of the Closing.

(ii) “Services” shall mean the following services performed by the Transferred FH Companies (and their Closing Subsidiaries), the FH Asset Sellers and the FH Affiliates as of the date hereof or as of the Closing: industrial chemical cleaning services, high velocity oil systems flush, oil reclamation and emergency water and particulate removal.

Section 5.14 Mail and Other Communications; Accounts.

(a) After the Closing Date, each of Seller and its Subsidiaries and Buyer and its Subsidiaries may receive mail, packages and other communications (including electronic communications) properly belonging to the other (or the other’s Subsidiaries). Accordingly, at all times after the Closing Date, each of Seller and Buyer authorizes the other and their respective Subsidiaries to receive and open all mail, packages and other communications received by it and not unambiguously intended for the other party (or its Subsidiaries) or any of the other party’s (or its Subsidiaries’) officers or directors, and to retain the same to the extent that they relate to the FH Business (in the case of receipt by Buyer and its Subsidiaries) or the Excluded Businesses (in the case of receipt by Seller and its Subsidiaries), or to the extent that they do not relate to the FH Business (in the case of receipt by Buyer and its Subsidiaries) or the Excluded Businesses (in the case of receipt by Seller and its Subsidiaries), the receiving party shall promptly after becoming aware thereof refer, forward or otherwise deliver such mail, packages or other communications (or, in case the same relate to both the FH Business and the Excluded Businesses, copies thereof) to the other party. The provisions of this Section 5.14 are not intended to, and shall not be deemed to, constitute an authorization by either Seller or Buyer to permit the other to accept service of process on its behalf and neither party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of the other for service of process purposes.

(b) All payments and reimbursements received by Seller or its Subsidiaries in connection with or arising out of the FH Business, the FH Assets, the Acquired FH Assets or the Assumed Liabilities after the Closing shall be held by such Person in trust for the benefit of Buyer and, immediately upon receipt by such Person of any such payment or reimbursement, such Person shall pay over to Buyer the amount of such payment or reimbursement, without right of set off.

(c) All payments and reimbursements received by Buyer or its Subsidiaries in connection with or arising out of the Excluded Assets, Retained Liabilities or Excluded Businesses, after the Closing shall be held by such Person in trust for the benefit of Seller and, immediately upon receipt by such Person of any such payment or reimbursement such person shall pay over to Seller the amount of such payment or reimbursement without right of set off.

Section 5.15 Transfer of Excluded Assets; Restructuring. Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to effect the restructuring transactions set forth on Section 5.15 of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter (as may be amended pursuant to this sentence, the “Pre-Closing Restructuring Transactions”) on or before the Closing Date; provided, however, that following the date hereof, but subject to Seller’s indemnification obligations in Section 9.4, Seller shall be permitted to amend Section 5.15 of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter to the extent the effect of such amendments would not in any material respect adversely affect the operations of the FH Business or otherwise adversely affect in any material respect Buyer or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller shall take (or cause one or more of its Affiliates to take) such action as is reasonably necessary or advisable to transfer effective as of, or prior to, the Closing Date the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities from the Transferred FH Companies or any of their Closing Subsidiaries to Seller or one or more of its Retained Subsidiaries for such consideration or for no consideration, as may be determined by Seller in its sole discretion. After the Closing Date, Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred FH

Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions (or shall cause their Affiliates to take all actions) reasonably requested by Seller to effect the provisions of this Section 5.15, including the transfer of any Excluded Assets to Seller or one or more of its designees for no additional consideration; provided, however, that Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all reasonable third-party costs associated with any such actions.

Section 5.16 Obligations Regarding Non-Assignable Assets and Delayed FH Assets.

(a) Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until such consent, approval or amendment described below is no longer required or has been obtained, this Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements shall not constitute an agreement to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey or transfer at the Closing any FH Asset (excluding any equity interests in a Delayed Company) or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom as to which consent or approval from any Person (including consents and approvals of Governmental Authorities) to assignment, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, conveyance or transfer thereof or amendment thereof is required but has not been obtained as of the Closing Date (such Asset, a “Delayed FH Asset”); provided, however, that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither Seller or any of its Affiliates nor Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or pay any money or otherwise grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party. Without limiting the generality of Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, Seller and Buyer shall use, and cause each of their Subsidiaries to use, commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such consent, approval or amendment, including after the Closing Date; provided, however, that Buyer acknowledges that Seller has no obligation to novate Government Contracts prior to the Closing Date. Upon obtaining the requisite consents or approvals, such Delayed FH Asset shall be transferred and assigned to Buyer hereunder without additional consideration therefor.

(b) With respect to Government Contracts that are subject to a requirement for novation, during the pendency of any novation request pursuant to Section 42.1204 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) or other process as may be specified by the authorized contracting officer(s) of the applicable Governmental Authority:

(i) Buyer shall perform, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all of the obligations of Seller or its applicable Affiliate under such Government Contracts to the extent such Government Contracts have not yet been fully performed by Seller or such Affiliate and closed out;

(ii) Buyer shall inure to all rights and benefits conferred or accruing under such Government Contracts, whether such rights and benefits are conferred or accrue before, on or after the Closing Date, but such inurement shall not include any payment made to Seller or such Affiliate prior to the Closing Date;

(iii) Each of Buyer and Seller shall, at each party’s own expense, use its commercially reasonable efforts and shall cooperate with one another to secure novation of the Government Contracts as soon as practicable; and

(iv) Neither Seller nor any Affiliate thereof shall take any action or fail to take any action in connection with any such Government Contract that would frustrate the intent of, or materially impair or diminish the performance of, or any of Buyer’s or Seller’s (or such Affiliate’s) rights under, any such Government Contract.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 5.16(c) or in cases of Government Contracts that are subject to Section 5.16(b), in the event and to the extent that, prior to the Closing, Seller or any Retained Subsidiary is unable to obtain a consent, approval or amendment required to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey or transfer any Delayed FH Asset to Buyer, then following the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) continue to hold, and to the extent required by the terms applicable to such Delayed FH Asset, operate such Delayed FH Asset in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and taking into account the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) cooperate in any arrangement, reasonable and lawful as to Seller and Buyer, designed to provide to Buyer or its Subsidiaries the benefits arising under such Delayed FH Asset, including accepting such reasonable direction as Buyer shall request of Seller and (iii) enforce at Buyer’s request, or allow Buyer and its Affiliates to enforce in a commercially reasonable manner, any rights of the applicable Seller under such Delayed FH Asset against the other party or parties thereto; provided, however, that the costs and expenses incurred by Seller or its Affiliates at Buyer’s request shall be borne solely by Buyer. Seller shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, without further consideration therefor, pay and remit to Buyer promptly all monies, rights and other consideration received in respect of such performance. Buyer shall pay, perform and discharge fully, promptly when due, all of the obligations of Seller or the Retained Subsidiaries in respect of such performance, and Buyer shall be responsible for all Assumed Liabilities related thereto and indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties for all Losses arising out of any actions (or omissions to act) of Seller or any Retained Subsidiary arising out of such performance or taken at the direction of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries. With respect to Government Contracts that are subject to a requirement for novation and not novated prior to Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to novate such Government Contracts as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 5.16, neither Seller nor any other of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action that may, in the good faith judgment of Seller or such Subsidiary, (i) result in a violation of any obligation which Seller or any such Subsidiary has to any third party or (ii) violate applicable Law.

(e) Buyer acknowledges that certain consents and approvals to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be required from certain third parties, and that such consents and approvals have not been and may not be obtained. Buyer agrees that Seller and its Affiliates shall not have any liability whatsoever arising out of or relating to, the failure to obtain any consents or approvals that may have been or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the default under or acceleration or termination of any Contracts, FH Business Permits or Environmental Permits or other right or obligation, as a result thereof. Buyer further agrees that no representation, warranty, covenant or other obligation of Seller contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached, and no condition to Buyer’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed not satisfied, as a result of the failure to obtain any such consent or approval or as a result of any such default, acceleration or termination.

Section 5.17 Obligations Regarding Delayed Companies.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the equity interests of any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary of a Transferred FH Company for which Seller and its Subsidiaries have not received all necessary consents and approvals of any Governmental Authority which are required to transfer the equity interests of any such entity to Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any Local Purchase Agreement at the Closing (such entity, a “Delayed Company”) shall be treated in the manner set forth in this Section 5.17. Without limiting the generality of Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, Seller shall, and shall cause the applicable FH Share Sellers to, and Buyer shall, use their commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions required to obtain any consent, approval or amendment required to convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer such FH Share Sellers’ equity interests in a Delayed Company (the “Delayed Company Interests”); provided, however, that this Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements shall not constitute an agreement to convey, assign, transfer or deliver any Delayed Company Interests as to which consent or approval to conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery thereof or amendment thereof has not been obtained as of the Closing Date unless and until such consent, approval, or amendment is no longer required or has been obtained; provided, further, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer, pay any money or otherwise grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party in connection with obtaining any such consent, approval or amendment. Buyer shall indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties against any Losses arising in connection with the transfer, or attempted transfer, of the Delayed Company Interests, or the FH Shares of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries holding Delayed Company Interests, hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller nor any FH Share Seller makes any representation or warranty that any such consent or approval shall be obtained either prior to, on or after the Closing Date and neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any Liability to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries for failure to obtain any consent, approval or amendment required to convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer the Delayed Company Interests.

(b) In the event and to the extent that Seller or any FH Share Seller is unable to obtain any such required consent, approval or amendment required to convey, assign, transfer and deliver any Delayed Company Interests to Buyer, Seller shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, continue to retain title to such Delayed Company Interests; provided, that Seller may transfer any such interests to any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Seller, with the prior written consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably, withheld) and if not in violation of the associated organizational and governance documents of the Delayed Company; provided, further, that if any such Delayed Company Interests are held by a Transferred FH Company and such Transferred FH Company is to be conveyed to Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer under this Agreement, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restructure such company or its sale to Buyer or its Subsidiaries so that Seller or a Retained Subsidiary retains the Delayed Company Interests. Buyer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Seller in effectuating any such restructuring. Until the transfer to Buyer of such Delayed Company Interests: (i) Buyer shall pay, perform and

discharge fully, promptly when due, all the reasonable obligations of Seller or the applicable FH Share Seller thereunder from and after the Closing Date; (ii) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, be responsible for all Assumed Liabilities related thereto and indemnify Seller and its Affiliates and the applicable FH Share Sellers and their Affiliates for all Losses arising out of such performance (or any failure to perform) by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries and any Losses arising out of Seller’s entering into such an arrangement and (iii) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate and provide such support and services to Seller and its Affiliates as Seller shall reasonably request in connection with such arrangement. Seller shall, and shall cause the applicable FH Share Sellers to, without further consideration therefor, pay and remit to Buyer promptly all monies, rights and other considerations received in respect of such performance; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and its Affiliates may retain, and shall not be required to remit to Buyer or any of its Affiliates, any Tax distributions received from any Delayed Company made for the purposes of paying any Taxes that are Retained Liabilities attributable to the income of such Delayed Company generated on or after the Closing Date and for which Seller or any of its Affiliates is liable pursuant to applicable Law. In the event that (x) Seller or a Retained Subsidiary is required under the applicable organizational and governance documents of the Delayed Company to fund or (y) subject to the prior written consent of Buyer (not unreasonably to be withheld), Seller or a Retained Subsidiary otherwise funds, any capital call from, or otherwise makes any capital contribution to, any Delayed Company after the Closing but prior to the transfer to Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries of Seller’s or a Retained Subsidiary’s interests in such Delayed Company, then at the time of such transfer, Buyer shall be obligated to reimburse Seller for the amount of cash funded into such capital call.

(c) The obligations of Buyer to purchase and accept any Delayed Company Interests, and the obligations of the FH Share Sellers to sell, assign and transfer any Delayed Company Interests, which was not transferred pursuant to Section 1.1 at the Closing, shall be subject to the fulfillment, or written waiver by Buyer, or by Seller, on behalf of itself and the FH Share Sellers, as the case may be, at or prior to such transfer, of only the following conditions: (i) the receipt of each material consent, approval or amendment required to convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries such Delayed Company Interests, and (ii) no statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, preliminary or permanent injunction or restraining order shall have been enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced by any Governmental Authority which prohibits or restricts the transfer of such Delayed Company Interests nor shall any proceeding by any Governmental Authority seeking the foregoing be pending.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 5.17, neither Buyer, Seller nor any of the FH Share Sellers shall be required to take any action that may, in the reasonable judgment of Buyer, Seller or such FH Share Seller, violate applicable Law. In addition, to the extent that it is contemplated that any Delayed Company Interests are to be conveyed, assigned, transferred and delivered to Buyer pursuant to a Local Purchase Agreement, such Delayed Company Interests shall be conveyed, assigned, transferred and delivered to Buyer pursuant to such Local Purchase Agreement.

(b) Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including the rights of Buyer in this Section 5.19(b) to obtain Alternative Financing), Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and use its reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange the Debt Financing and to consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) comply with the terms of, and maintain in effect, the Debt Commitment Letter; (ii) satisfy (or seek a waiver of) on a timely basis all of the conditions precedent and covenants set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the definitive documentation for the Debt Financing; (iii) negotiate, execute and deliver definitive documentation for the Debt Financing (and promptly upon the execution and delivery thereof, provide true and complete copies of such definitive documentation to Seller) that reflects the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letter or on other terms not materially less favorable, in the aggregate, to Buyer (subject to any “market flex” provisions included in the Fee Letter or any fee letter relating to an Alternative Financing) and that would not, if such other terms constituted an amendment to the Debt Commitment Letter, be prohibited by clauses (A) through (D) in the proviso below; and (iv) in the event that the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.3 and the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied, cause the financing providers to fund the Debt Financing in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter including, if necessary, enforcing rights under the Debt Commitment Letter and the definitive documentation for the Debt Financing; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Buyer be required to commence or sustain any legal proceeding in connection therewith. Buyer shall have the right from time to time to amend, restate, replace, supplement or otherwise modify, or waive any of its rights under, the Debt Commitment Letter and/or substitute other debt or equity financing for all or any portion of the Debt Financing from the same and/or alternative financing sources (together with any alternative financing as described in clause (c) below, each an “Alternative Financing”); provided, that any such amendment, restatement, supplement, replacement or other modification to or waiver of any provision of the Debt Commitment Letter that amends the Debt Financing and/or substitution of all or any portion of the Debt Financing shall not, without the prior written consent of Seller, (A) except as otherwise set forth herein, reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount) to be funded at or prior to Closing in a manner that would adversely impact the ability of Buyer to consummate the Sale or that would otherwise be expected to prevent, delay or impede the Sale, (B) impose new or additional conditions precedent or contingencies to the Debt Financing as set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter or otherwise amend, modify, or expand any conditions precedent to the funding of the Debt Financing (unless such conditions precedent or contingencies to the Alternative Financing would not be reasonably expected to (i) prevent, impede or delay the Closing, (ii) make the funding of the Debt Financing or a material portion thereof (or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing or a material portion thereof) less likely to occur, (iii) adversely affect the ability of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iv) adversely impact the ability of Buyer to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive documentation with respect thereto), (C) release or consent to the termination of the obligations of the lenders under the Debt Commitment Letter (except for assignments and replacements of an individual lender under the terms of or in connection with the syndication of the Debt Financing or as otherwise expressly contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter), or (D) otherwise (i) prevent, impede or

delay the Closing, (ii) adversely affect the ability of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (iii) adversely impact the ability of Buyer to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or the definitive agreements with respect thereto; provided, further, that Buyer may amend, restate, replace, supplement or otherwise modify the Debt Commitment Letter (or any Alternative Financing) on one or more occasions to add additional arrangers, bookrunners, agents and lenders in accordance with the terms of the Debt Commitment Letter (but not to make any other changes other than to the extent otherwise permitted under this Section 5.19(b)). For purposes of this Agreement, the definition of “Debt Commitment Letter” shall include any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification or waiver thereto, or any replacement thereof, and the definition of “Debt Financing” shall include any amendment thereof or substitution of any portion thereof with any Alternative Financing, in each case permitted under this Section 5.19(b) or Section 5.19(c) below.

(c) If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter (subject to any “market flex” provisions included in the Fee Letter and other than on account of any Alternative Financing referred to in clause (b) above having been completed) other than due to the failure of a condition to the consummation of the Debt Financing resulting from a material breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant of Seller set forth in this Agreement or the failure of any condition set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.3, Buyer shall promptly so notify Seller and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such portion from alternative debt or equity sources as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event in an amount that will still enable Buyer to pay the Required Amount at the Closing (including the payment of all fees, premiums and expenses associated therewith).

(d) Buyer shall keep Seller informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of Buyer’s efforts to arrange the Debt Financing (including any Alternative Financing) and shall provide to Seller copies of any amendment, restatement, replacement, supplement or modification of the Debt Commitment Letter (including any new commitment letters relating to any Alternative Financing and related fee letters, redacted as to the same scope as the Fee Letter) and all executed final definitive documents relating to the Debt Financing (excluding any provisions related solely to fees, economic and “market flex” terms (other than covenants) agreed to by the parties thereto and any provisions in any fee or engagement letters as customarily excluded by the Financing Sources). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall give Seller prompt written notice (in any event within three (3) Business Days), which shall include reasonably detailed information regarding the applicable circumstances referenced in the following clauses: (i) if Buyer becomes aware of any breach or default by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing or termination or threatened termination thereof, if such breach, default or termination would reasonably be expected to affect the timely availability of, or the amount of, the Debt Financing; (ii) of the receipt by it of any written notice or other written communication from any Person with respect to any (A) actual or potential breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing or any provisions of the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing, or (B) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive document related to the Debt Financing

with respect to the obligation to fund any portion of the Debt Financing or the amount of the Debt Financing to be funded at Closing; and (iii) if for any reason Buyer believes in good faith that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (subject to the “market flex” provisions included in the Fee Letter or any fee letter relating to any Alternative Financing) or the definitive documents related to the Debt Financing. As soon as reasonably practicable, after the date Seller delivers Buyer a written request, Buyer shall provide any additional information reasonably requested by Seller relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(e) Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives to, furnish Buyer and its Financing Sources with the (i) the Required Financial Statements; and (ii) as promptly as practical after requested by Buyer, all information regarding the FH Business reasonably requested by Buyer to prepare pro forma financial statements of the type and form and for periods, in each case, customarily included in information memoranda and syndication materials used in syndicated bank financings (the information and documents in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Required Information”); provided that such Required Information (A) shall not include, and Buyer shall be solely responsible for, pro forma information or projections, including pro forma cost savings, synergies, capitalization or other pro forma adjustments desired to be incorporated into any pro forma information and (B) shall not include “segment reporting”, information required by Rules 3-09, 3-10 and 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act or otherwise include separate financial statements of any Subsidiary or any compensation discussion and analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act. From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to provide such customary assistance and cooperation (and to use reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives to provide such customary assistance and cooperation), at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, with respect to any Debt Financing as is reasonably requested by Buyer, including using reasonable best efforts with respect to: (i) upon reasonable request, participating in and assisting with the due diligence and marketing efforts related to such Debt Financing, including, upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, participating in a reasonable number of meetings (including one-on-one meetings or conference calls with the parties acting as agents or arrangers for, and prospective lenders, investors in, and purchasers of, the Debt Financing), presentations, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions, road shows and sessions with prospective lenders, investors and rating agencies and other syndication activities; (ii) delivering to Buyer and its Financing Sources as promptly as reasonably practicable documentation and other information that is required under applicable “know-your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA Patriot Act and that is reasonably requested by the Financing Sources at least ten (10) Business Days prior to Closing; (iii) requesting Seller’s independent auditors to cooperate with the Debt Financing consistent with their customary practice, including by participating in a reasonable number of drafting sessions, providing customary assistance with the due diligence activities of Buyer and the Financing Sources (including, upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours, participating in a reasonable number of accounting due diligence sessions); (iv) assisting Buyer and the Financing Sources in the preparation of (A) customary syndication documents and materials, including bank information memoranda (confidential and public), lender and investor presentations and

similar documents for the Debt Financing and (B) customary materials for rating agency presentations, and similar documents in connection with the Debt Financing; (v) cooperating reasonably with each Financing Source’s due diligence including in relation to the provision of, and reliance on, any reports produced in connection with the transaction; (vi) executing and delivering customary definitive financing documents, including certificates and other documents, to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer and customary for financings of the type similar to the Debt Financing; (vii) providing all financial statements, financial data, audit reports and other information with respect to the FH Business customarily included in marketing materials, lender and investor presentations and similar documents for the syndication of credit facilities similar to those described in the Debt Commitment Letter; provided that the only financial statements required to be delivered shall be those described in Section 3.5 and Section 5.25; and (viii) providing customary projected financial information relating only to the FH Business as reasonably requested by Buyer to permit Buyer to prepare customary projected financial information relating to Buyer (to be prepared on a pro forma basis assuming the consummation of the Sale) which are customarily required by financing sources for the syndication of credit facilities similar to those described in the Debt Commitment Letter or for purposes of obtaining corporate and debt ratings; provided that the effectiveness of any certificate, definitive agreements or other documentation executed by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries shall be subject to the Closing of the Sale. In addition, if, in connection with the marketing of the Debt Financing, Buyer reasonably determines in consultation with the lead arrangers for the Debt Financing that the disclosure of any material non-public information with respect to the FH Business or the pro forma combined financial position or results of operations of the Buyer and the FH Business is necessary or advisable to include in any syndication materials or other similar documents to be delivered to any “public side” lenders, then Buyer shall have the right, upon prior written notice to Seller, to file or furnish one or more Current Reports on Form 8-K (each a “Buyer Form 8-K”) containing such material non-public information and any required reconciliations, which Buyer Form 8-K shall in no event contain (x) financial projections or other estimates of future performance with respect to the FH Business, (y) any information with respect to the FH Business that would result in the loss of the ability to successfully assert any attorney-client privilege of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, or (z) any material non-public information with respect to the FH Business the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under any Contract to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, in each case to the extent existing as of the date of this Agreement; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent, limit or restrict the disclosure of any financial information or financial data, including the Required Financial Statements and the Required Information. Additionally, Buyer will use reasonable best efforts to limit the amount and scope of such material non-public information with respect to the FH Business or the pro forma combined financial position or results of operations of the Buyer and the FH Business contained in any Buyer Form 8-K, but subject in all respects to compliance with applicable Law regarding the disclosure of material non-public information in syndication materials or other similar documents. Seller hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing, provided that such logos are used solely in a manner that is reasonable and customary for such purposes and that is not intended to or reasonably likely to harm or disparage Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective products, services, offerings or intellectual property rights and on such other

customary terms and conditions as Seller shall reasonably impose. Seller shall be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any syndication materials or other similar documents (including drafts of any Buyer Form 8-Ks), or any materials for rating agencies, that include information about Seller or any of its Subsidiaries prepared in connection with the Debt Financing.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between Seller and Buyer (or its Affiliates), the Seller agrees that Buyer and its affiliates may share customary projections with respect to the FH Business with the Financing Sources identified in the Debt Commitment Letter and to any existing lenders of Buyer, and that Buyer, its affiliates and such Financing Sources may share such information with potential Financing Sources in connection with any marketing efforts in connection with the Debt Financing, provided that the recipients of such information are subject to customary confidentiality arrangements between Buyer and such parties (which need not include Seller). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Seller, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective directors or officers or other personnel shall be required by this Section 5.19 to: (1) take any action or provide any assistance that unreasonably interferes with the ongoing operations of Seller and its Subsidiaries; (2) pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the execution of the Debt Financing or the documents related to the Debt Financing prior to the Closing (other than customary authorization and representation letters provided in connection with marketing or offering documents); (3) execute or deliver any certificate, document, instrument or agreement that is effective prior to the Closing or agree to any change or modification of any existing certificate, document, instrument or agreement that is effective prior to the Closing (other than customary authorization and representation letters and a payoff letter with respect to any credit agreement); (4)(i) execute or deliver any solvency certificate with respect to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) request that Seller’s independent accountants provide any consent or comfort letter or (iii) request that any counsel for Seller or any of its Subsidiaries deliver any opinion in connection with the Debt Financing (5) pay any commitment or other similar fee; (6) cause any director, officer or other personnel to incur any personal liability; (7) without limiting Seller’s obligation to furnish the Required Information or obtain the Seller Lender Consent, take any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, Seller’s or any of its Subsidiary’s organizational documents, any applicable Laws or any Contract to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, in each case to the extent existing as of the date of this Agreement; (8) cause any representation or warranty in this Agreement to be breached; or (9) require Seller to provide access or disclose any information that would jeopardize any attorney-client privilege of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries.

(g) Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives from and against any and all losses, damages, claims and out-of-pocket costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), actually suffered or incurred by them in connection with any Debt Financing (including any action taken in accordance with this Section 5.19) and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than information provided by Seller or any of its Representatives in writing for use in the Debt Financing documents), in any case, except to the extent suffered or incurred as a result of the gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or Intentional Breach by or of the Seller or its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives. In addition, Buyer shall, promptly upon request

by Seller, reimburse Seller for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Seller or its Subsidiaries in connection with the performance of Seller’s obligations under this Section 5.19, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.24(a).

Section 5.20 Conflicts; Privileges. It is acknowledged by each of the parties that Seller has retained Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP (“Skadden”) to act as its counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that Skadden has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the negotiation and execution of the Transaction Documents (the “Matter”) and the transactions contemplated hereby and that no other party or Person has the status of a client of Skadden for conflict of interest or any other purposes as a result thereof.

After the Closing, the Buyer shall (i) keep the Seller reasonably informed of the steps taken in connection with the preparation, audit and approval of the DPLP Financial Statements, (ii) give the Seller the opportunity to review and comment on the final draft of the DPLP Financial Statements before they are submitted to the auditor (iii) procure that all reasonable comments on such final draft DPLP Financial Statements provided by the Seller to the Buyer be implemented and reflected in the DPLP Financial Statements unless the auditor rejects such comments after having discussed them with the Seller.

(c) Settlement. The parties agree and shall procure that, upon profit transfer by the Company or loss compensation by Allweiler Group GmbH, based on the DPLP Financial Statements and in accordance with applicable law and the DPLP Agreement, all rights and obligations between Allweiler Group GmbH and the Company related to any profit transfer or loss compensation or any other claim under the DPLP Agreement shall be finally settled and that the DPLP Financial Statements or any financial statements of the Company as of any previous date shall not be challenged by the Buyer or by or on behalf of the Company after the Closing Date.

in the DPLP Agreement or in connection with the DPLP Agreement (other than Allweiler Group GmbH’s obligation to fulfil the DPLP Company Claim) and (iii) any Losses (including any Taxes, any losses of Tax Items and any other Tax-related disadvantages) caused by a violation of the covenants of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Company) set forth in this Section 5.29 (a), (b) or (e). With effect from the Closing Date, the Seller shall procure (steht dafür ein), and hereby guarantees, that Allweiler Group GmbH and its Affiliates will not assert any claims against the Company or its Closing Subsidiaries, and the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties (including the Company and its Closing Subsidiaries) from and against any obligation pursuant to Section 301 AktG or the relevant provision in the DPLP Agreement or in connection with the DPLP Agreement (other than Company’s obligation to fulfil the DPLP Company Liability).

(e) If and to the extent Allweiler Group GmbH pays an amount to the Company in fulfilment of the DPLP Company Claim, the Buyer shall promptly reimburse the Seller (or its designee) in the same amount.

(a) Continuation of Employment. Buyer shall or shall cause each one of its Affiliates to continue the employment of each then-current Transferred FH Company Employee immediately following the Closing on the terms set forth in this Article VI.

(b) Offers of Employment. Not later than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated date of Closing (or such greater period as required by applicable Law), Buyer shall or shall cause one of its Affiliates to offer employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates to each then-current Offer Employee, commencing as of the Closing on the terms set forth in this Article VI.

Buyer and its Affiliates shall not propose any change to any Automatic Transfer Employee’s working conditions or terms and conditions or employment or otherwise take any action (including communication with any Automatic Transfer Employee or Employee Representative) that is intended to cause an Automatic Transfer Employee to resign prior to the Closing. If the contract of employment of any Employee based in a jurisdiction where the Transfer Regulations might apply does not transfer to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates in accordance with the Transfer Regulations as intended, such Employee shall then be an Offer Employee and Buyer or its Affiliate shall offer such Employee employment in accordance with Section 6.1(b) provided that such offer shall be on the terms that would have applied, including recognition of continuity of service, had the Employee transferred to Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to the Transfer Regulations.

(d) Delayed Transfer Employees.

(e) Payments Pursuant to Transferred Benefit Plans. Buyer shall cause each applicable Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary to pay all amounts payable under each Transferred Benefit Plan maintained by such Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary no later than the date such amounts become due in the time and manner set forth in such Transferred Benefit Plan to the extent such amounts are Retained Liabilities. To the extent

any such payment is a Retained Liability and is not reflected in Final Net Working Capital, Buyer shall notify Seller of such payment and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for such amount, including in each case any payroll Taxes attributable thereto, within thirty (30) days of receiving notice.

Section 6.2 Terms and Conditions; Compensation and Benefits.

(a) Subject, and in addition, to the requirements imposed by applicable Law, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide each Transferred Employee with (i) a base salary or hourly wage rate that is at least equal to the base salary or hourly wage rate provided to the Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing, and (ii) cash incentive compensation opportunities as a percentage of base salary or hourly wage rates that are at least equal to the cash incentive compensation opportunities provided to the Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing as such a percentage, and (iii) to provide the Transferred Employees in the aggregate with other compensation and employee benefits (other than severance payments and benefits and equity compensation) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the other compensation and employee benefits (other than severance payments and benefits and equity compensation) provided to such Transferred Employees in the aggregate, provided, that Buyer is not obligated to take into account for comparability any (x) retention, deal-based bonuses, or other changes in compensation in each case established in connection with preparing for and carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (y) any benefits continuing to be provided by Seller pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, and (z) 401(k) plan benefits for up to thirty (30) days following Closing.

(b) Subject, and in addition, to the requirements imposed by applicable Law, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide each Transferred Employee whose employment terminates during the Continuation Period with severance payments and benefits that are no less favorable than the severance payments and benefits that would have been provided to the Transferred Employee upon a similar termination of employment immediately prior to the Closing.

(c) Except as otherwise agreed to between the Buyer and the Seller with respect to an Offer Employee, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide each Transferred Employee with full credit for such Transferred Employee’s service with Seller or any of its Affiliates or predecessors prior to the Closing for eligibility, vesting, and determination of vacation and severance benefits under any benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (each, a “Buyer Plan”) in which such Transferred Employee is eligible to participate on or following the Closing Date; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or provide service credits for defined benefit accruals with respect to defined benefit plans. With respect to each Buyer Plan in which one or more Transferred Employees are eligible to participate on or following the Closing Date that is a health or benefits plan, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to waive any limitation on health coverage of such Transferred Employees due to pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, active employment requirements and requirements to show evidence of good health, and (ii) use

commercially reasonable efforts to credit each such Transferred Employee with all deductible payments, co-payments and co-insurance paid by such Transferred Employee under any Employee Benefit Plan prior to the Closing during the year in which the Closing occurs for the purpose of determining the extent to which any such Transferred Employee has satisfied any applicable deductible and whether such Transferred Employee has reached the out-of-pocket maximum for such year, such crediting to be required if and only to the extent that Seller has provided all information, and in a format, reasonably requested by Buyer and necessary to provide such credit.

(d) Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, assume all obligations of Seller with respect to each Transferred Employees under each CBA, except to the extent prohibited by Law, and honor the terms thereof until such CBA expires pursuant to its terms or is modified by the parties thereto.

Section 6.3 Treatment of Seller Pension Plans.

(a) Assumed Pension Liabilities. From and after the Closing, the Assumed Pension Liabilities shall become or remain, as applicable, the responsibility of the applicable Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary. Seller shall ensure that all Assumed Pension Assets related to the Assumed Pension Liabilities shall be transferred to or held by the applicable Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary. All other Liabilities relating in any manner to any Seller Pension Plan shall be retained or assumed by Seller or its applicable post-Closing Affiliate.

(b) Upon completion of the transfer of assets and liabilities as described in this Section 6.3, Buyer or such applicable Affiliate and the applicable Buyer pension plan shall be fully responsible for all benefits relating to past service of such Transferred Pension Participants and none of Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall have any liabilities whatsoever with respect to such benefits. Effective as of the Closing Date, the Transferred Pension Participants shall cease to accrue any additional benefits under any Seller Pension Plans. Effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that Seller and its Affiliates are released from any existing surety (if applicable) for Assumed Pension Liabilities.

(c) Specific procedures for the determination and transfer of Assumed Pension Assets and Assumed Pension Liabilities for the Seller U.S. DB Plan are listed in Section 6.3(c) of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter.

Section 6.4 Treatment of 401(k) Plan Accounts.

(a) Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, have in effect a defined contribution retirement plan that is tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Buyer 401(k) Plan”). Each U.S. Transferred Employee who is a participant immediately prior to the Closing in a defined contribution retirement plan of the Seller that is tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (each, a “Seller 401(k) Plan”) shall be enrolled in the Buyer 401(k) Plan as soon as practicable following the Closing Date. Each U.S. Transferred Employee who is not a participant in the Seller 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the Closing shall be permitted to enroll in the Buyer 401(k) Plan after the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Buyer 401(k) Plan.

(b) Buyer shall cause the Buyer 401(k) Plan to provide each U.S. Transferred Employee with full credit for such U.S. Transferred Employee’s service with Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates or predecessors prior to the Closing for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the Buyer 401(k) Plan.

(c) As soon as practicable on or after the Closing Date, Seller shall take all commercially reasonable measures needed to cause the transfer to the Buyer 401(k) Plan of all of the assets and liabilities of Seller 401(k) Plan that are attributable to U.S. Transferred Employees, including all promissory notes and receivables in respect of plan loans to U.S. Transferred Employees under the Seller 401(k) Plan that remain outstanding as of the Closing and accrued liabilities arising out of any applicable qualified domestic relations order. Buyer shall direct the trustee of the Buyer 401(k) Plan to accept such transfer of assets and liabilities from the Seller 401(k) Plan. Such transfer of assets and liabilities shall be made in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 411(d)(6) and 414(l) of the Code.

(d) Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to take any and all commercially reasonable measures needed to effect the transition to the Buyer 401(k) Plan of all outstanding loans under the Seller 401(k) Plan with respect to U.S. Transferred Employees so as to prevent, to the extent reasonably possible, a deemed distribution or loan offset with respect to such outstanding loans. Such actions may include, for example, amending the Seller 401(k) Plan to permit a U.S. Transferred Employee to continue to make scheduled loan payments to the Seller 401(k) Plan after the Closing, but before the Seller 401(k) Plan assets and liabilities are transferred to the Buyer 401(k) Plan, and adopting administrative procedures to facilitate such loan payments.

Section 6.5 Treatment of Flexible Spending Accounts. Unless otherwise agreed to by Buyer and Seller, effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, have in effect a flexible spending account plan in which the U.S. Transferred Employees shall be eligible to participate (the “Buyer FSA Plan”). Effective on or as soon as practicable after the Closing, Seller shall transfer the account balances of the U.S. Transferred Employees from the applicable medical and dependent care account plans of Seller and its Affiliates (each, a “Seller FSA Plan”) to the Buyer FSA Plan, and Buyer shall be responsible for the obligations of the Seller FSA Plan to provide benefits to the U.S. Transferred Employees with respect to such transferred account balances at or after the Closing. Buyer shall continue to honor all payroll deductions as most recently elected by the U.S. Transferred Employee under the Seller FSA Plan for the remainder of the year in which the Closing occurs. Effective on or as soon as practicable after the Closing, (i) if the aggregate benefits paid by the Seller FSA Plan to the U.S. Transferred Employees prior to the Closing exceed the aggregate payroll deductions made in respect of the U.S. Transferred Employees at or prior to the Closing, then Buyer shall reimburse Seller for the amount of such excess or (ii) if the aggregate payroll deductions made in respect of the U.S. Transferred Employees at or prior to the Closing exceed the aggregate benefits paid by the Seller FSA Plan to the U.S. Transferred Employees prior to the Closing, then Seller shall reimburse Buyer for the amount of such excess.

Section 6.6 Treatment of Accrued Leave. Effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, assume or retain, as the case may be, all obligations of the Seller and its Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and the Closing Subsidiaries) for the accrued and unpaid annual leave, vacation, and paid time off of the Employees except where, pursuant to applicable Law, Seller and its Affiliates are required to pay an accrued amount to an Employee in connection with Closing. For a period of one year following the Closing (or such longer period as is required by applicable Law), Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, provide annual leave, vacation and paid time off benefits to Transferred Employees that are at least as favorable as those provided under the applicable programs of Seller and its Affiliates.

Section 6.7 Labor Consultations. Seller and its Affiliates shall, and Buyer and its Affiliates shall, cooperate fully in meeting any information and consulting obligations or otherwise discussing or negotiating with, relevant Employee Representatives. Seller shall complete, or cause to be completed, prior to the Closing, and Buyer shall assist and cooperate fully with Seller in causing to be completed, all notifications to, and all consultations with, employees, Employee Representatives, labor boards and relevant Governmental Authorities concerning the acquisition and the other transactions contemplated hereby whether an information or consulting obligation or otherwise pursuant to the Transfer Regulations or other applicable Law. Buyer and the Transferred FH Companies and the Closing Subsidiaries, jointly and severally, shall indemnify Seller against any Liability which arises out of a complaint or failure or alleged failure to provide applicable information or otherwise cooperate fully with Seller and its Affiliates in meeting any and all information and consultation obligations or in respect of any subsequent award of compensation in respect of a breach or alleged breach of the information and consultation obligations where that complaint or failure to act is primarily a result of an act or omission of Buyer or one of its Affiliates.

Section 6.8 WARN Act. Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, agrees to provide any required notice under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended, or any similar applicable state, local, or foreign law or regulation requiring notice to employees in the event of a closing or layoff (the “WARN Act”) after the Closing Date, and to otherwise comply with the WARN Act with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Employees (including as a result of the consummation of transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and occurring from and after the Closing. Buyer shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates to, take any action on or after the Closing Date that would cause any termination of employment of any Employees by any member of the Seller or its Affiliates occurring prior to the Closing Date to constitute a “plant closing,” “mass layoff” or group termination or similar event under the WARN Act. On or before the Closing Date, Seller shall provide a list of the name and site of employment of any and all employees of Seller who have experienced, or will experience, an employment loss or layoff as defined by the WARN Act within ninety (90) days prior to the Closing Date. Seller shall update this list up to and including the Closing Date.

Section 6.9 Cooperation. Seller and Buyer and their respective Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and the Closing Subsidiaries) shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other to effectuate the provisions set forth in this Article VI relating to the transfer of the Employees and the transfer of applicable employment-related

Assets and Liabilities, including by using reasonable efforts to cooperate to (i) exchange information related to Employees and their dependents and beneficiaries, including employment records and benefits information and any historic records needed to administer obligations under assumed pension plans and retiree plans and programs (subject in each case to the Seller’s reasonable, good faith determination that the exchange of such information is in compliance with all applicable employee data protection Laws), (ii) transfer the participation of Transferred Employees from Seller Benefit Plans to Buyer Plans where applicable, (iii) allow Employees to remain on medical coverage with Seller for a post-Closing transition period of ninety (90) days to facilitate Buyer’s providing comparable benefits, and (iv) encourage Employees to become Transferred Employees. Seller and Buyer and their respective Affiliates (including the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries) shall mutually agree, in good faith, to reasonable processes, procedures and/or documentation relating to any material employee communications following the date hereof in relation to the Sale, including matters addressed in this Article VI. Buyer shall, or shall cause on of its Affiliates to, provide Seller with information reasonably requested by Seller to allow Seller to evaluate in good faith whether the obligations of Buyer set forth in this Article VI, including Section 6.2, have been satisfied.

Section 6.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Article VI are included for the sole benefit of Seller and Buyer and nothing contained herein shall (i) be construed as an amendment to any employee benefit plan or program, (ii) create any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any other person, including any employee or former employee of Seller or Buyer or their respective Affiliates, or dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (iii) otherwise obligate Seller or Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates to maintain any particular employee benefit plan or retain the employment of any particular employee following the Closing. Sections 6.2 and 6.6 shall not apply to Employees outside the United States and no provision of this Article VI shall apply to the extent such sections conflict with any applicable Law or any CBA, but Buyer shall instead interpret and apply such sections as necessary to comply with applicable Law and applicable contracts (including, as applicable, any CBAs that transfer).

ARTICLE VII

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.1 Straddle Periods .

(a) Buyer and Seller agree that they will treat the Transferred FH Companies and the Closing Subsidiaries as if they ceased to be part of the Seller’s “affiliated group” (within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code, and any comparable or similar provision of state, local or foreign Laws), as of the close of business on the Closing Date. Buyer and Seller agree that if any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary is permitted but not required under applicable foreign, state or local Tax Laws to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period, Buyer and Seller shall treat such day as the last day of a taxable period; provided, however, and without affecting the provisions of Section 7.1(b), Seller shall not be required to treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable period of any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary to the extent that such treatment would materially increase the Tax liability of Seller, the applicable FH Share Seller or such Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary in each case attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(b) In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the determination of Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period shall be made by assuming that the Straddle Period ended on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity will be deemed to terminate at such time), except that (1) exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis and (2) Taxes (such as real or personal property Taxes) that are imposed on a periodic basis, in each case, shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period as compared to the number of days in the Post-Closing Tax Period. Taxes attributable to Subpart F income, determined in accordance with Section 952 of the Code, of a Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary that is characterized as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year including the Closing Date shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period assuming that the taxable year of the Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary terminated on the Closing Date.

Section 7.2 Tax Returns.

(a) Except as provided in Section 7.4 hereof, Seller shall (at its own expense) prepare, or cause to be prepared, and file or cause to be filed, when due, (i) all Tax Returns for any Affiliated Group of which any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary is a member that also includes Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), (ii) all Tax Returns of the FH Asset Sellers, (iii) all income Tax Returns of the Transferred FH Companies and Closing Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period), and (iv) all other Tax Returns of the Transferred FH Companies and Closing Subsidiaries required to be filed (taking into account extensions) prior to the Closing Date. Buyer shall and shall cause the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries to cooperate with, and take any action reasonably requested by, Seller with respect to the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns. The immediately preceding sentence shall, in no way, be construed as limiting or otherwise modifying the rights and obligations of the parties under Section 7.6 hereof. With respect to any such Tax Returns filed after the Closing Date, such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice of Seller and its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates unless otherwise required by Law, and Seller shall provide drafts of such Tax Returns (or in the case of Tax Returns of an Affiliated Group, pro forma versions of such Tax Returns reflecting only the items of the Transferred FH Companies and Closing Subsidiaries) to Buyer at least forty-five (45) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns in the case of income Tax Returns, and in such period of time prior to filing as Seller shall reasonably determine to be practicable in the case of other Tax Returns. Buyer shall provide any comments to Seller with respect to such Tax Returns within fifteen (15) days of Buyer’s receipt thereof (or as soon as reasonably practicable if such Tax Return was provided for review less than thirty (30) days prior to filing), and Seller shall incorporate all reasonable comments provided by Buyer.

(b) Except as provided in Section 7.4 hereof, Buyer shall (at its own expense) prepare, or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed, when due, all Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries or the Acquired FH

Assets required to be filed, other than those described in Section 7.2(a) hereof, and each such Tax Return with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice of the Transferred FH Companies and Closing Subsidiaries unless otherwise required by Law. If Seller may be required to indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 9.4(a), in respect of Taxes shown on any such Tax Return, Buyer shall provide drafts of such Tax Return to Seller at least forty-five (45) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return in the case of income Tax Returns, and in such period of time prior to filing as Buyer shall reasonably determine to be practicable in the case of other Tax Returns. Seller shall provide any comments to Buyer with respect to such Tax Returns within fifteen (15) days of Seller’s receipt thereof (or as soon as reasonably practicable if such Tax Return was provided for review less than thirty (30) days prior to filing), and Buyer shall incorporate all reasonable comments provided by Seller.

The costs and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne by Buyer and Seller, respectively, in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the items that are unsuccessfully disputed by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, (as finally determined by the Independent Accountants) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of the items submitted to the Independent Accountants.

Section 7.3 Contest Provisions.

(a) Notification of Contests. Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates, on the other hand (the “Recipient”), shall notify the other party in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Recipient of written notice of any pending or threatened audits, adjustments, assessments, examinations or proceedings (whether judicial or administrative) which may affect the liability for Taxes of such other party or may give rise to an indemnification payment under Section 9.4(a) or Section 9.4(b) by such other party (a “Tax Audit”); provided, that failure to give such notice (or the provision of notice that is not in sufficient detail to notify the other party of the nature of the Tax Audit) shall not void any indemnification obligation hereunder except to the extent such failure to give proper notice materially adversely affects the other party’s right to participate in and contest the Tax Audit.

(b) Control of Tax Audits.

(i) In the case of any Tax Audit of (A) any Tax Return prepared and filed by Seller or required to be prepared and filed by Seller hereunder and, or (B) any Tax Return in respect of any Straddle Period which Tax Audit relates primarily to Taxes for which Seller is liable hereunder, Seller may assume the defense of such Tax Audit by providing written notice to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of the receipt of the notice required under Section 7.3(a). Subject to Section 7.3(b)(iii), Buyer may observe, at its own expense, the defense of such Tax Audit and employ counsel of its choice at its expense and Seller shall keep Buyer informed regarding the progress and substantive aspects of such Tax Audit and, upon the reasonable request Buyer, shall consult with Buyer from time to time regarding the conduct of such Tax Audit. If Seller does not assume the defense of any such Tax Audit, Buyer shall defend such Tax Audit in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3(b)(ii) and shall not settle or otherwise dispose of such Tax Audit without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(ii) Except as provided in Section 7.3(b)(i), and Section 7.3(b)(iii), Buyer shall control all Tax Audits; provided that (i) Buyer shall keep Seller informed regarding the progress and substantive aspects of any issues in such Tax Audit for which Seller may have liability pursuant to this Agreement or be entitled to a payment pursuant to Section 7.5, (ii) Seller shall be entitled to participate in such Tax Audit with respect to any issues for which Seller may have liability pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) Buyer shall not settle or otherwise dispose of any issues in such Tax Audit for which the Seller may have liability pursuant to this Agreement, without obtaining Seller’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall not be entitled to participate in any Tax Audit relating to any consolidated, combined, affiliated or unitary Tax Return that includes the Seller or any of its Affiliates. If any Tax Audit controlled by Seller pursuant to Section 7.3(b)(i) may have the effect of materially increasing the Tax liability of Buyer, the Transferred FH Companies, any Closing Subsidiary, or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate of Buyer for any Post-Closing Tax Period and for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties would not have a right to indemnification hereunder, Seller shall not settle or otherwise dispose of any such Tax Audit without Buyer’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 7.4 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all Taxes with respect to any excise, sales, use, transfer (including real property transfer), stamp, documentary, filing, recordation and other similar Taxes arising directly or indirectly from the signing of this Agreement or Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, those arising pursuant to the Local Purchase Agreements) (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50% by Buyer and fifty percent (50%) by Seller.

Buyer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, to Seller, within ten (10) days of receipt, the amount of the refund or credit (including interest) received or utilized by Buyer, the Transferred FH Companies or any of their Closing Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in obtaining such refund or credit and any Taxes borne by Buyer, the Transferred FH Companies or any of their Closing Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates as a direct result of their receipt of such refund or utilization of any such credit.

Section 9.4 Indemnification.

(a) From and after Closing, and subject to Section 9.3 and this Section 9.4, Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Subsidiaries and each of their Affiliates and each of Buyer’s, its Subsidiaries’, and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against and will compensate and reimburse Buyer for (regardless of whether such Losses relate to any Third Party Claim) any (i) Losses (other than indemnification related to Taxes) to the extent arising from or directly relating to, (A) the failure of Seller to duly perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (the remedy for which survives the Closing), (B) any of the Retained Liabilities, (C) any breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in Article III of this Agreement or in the certificate delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 8.3(c), (D) any Indebtedness of any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary as of immediately prior to the Closing (other than any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Debt Financing), and (E) any of the Pre-Closing Restructuring Transactions and (ii) without duplication, Losses (other than, except in the case of clause (G), the costs and expenses of the preparation of Tax Returns and the Independent Accountants that are allocated among the parties pursuant to Section 7.2) to the extent arising from or directly relating to (A) any Taxes attributable to or imposed on the Acquired FH Assets for or relating to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion of any Straddle Period (as defined herein) ending on the Closing Date (computed in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof) (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”); (B) any Taxes of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries, for or relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period; (C) any liability for the Taxes of any Person (other than a Transferred FH Company or any of their Closing Subsidiaries) imposed on Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or after the Closing, any of the Transferred FH Companies or any of their Closing Subsidiaries, as a transferee or successor, pursuant to any contractual obligation or otherwise, as a result of transactions or events occurring, or contracts or agreements entered into, prior to the Closing, or as a result of any Transferred FH Company being part of or owned by, or ceasing to be part of or owned by, an

affiliated, combined, consolidated, unitary, or similar group that includes any Person other than the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries on or prior the Closing Date; (D) any Taxes realized upon implementation of the Pre-Closing Restructuring Transactions; (E) any Transfer Taxes for which Seller is responsible under Section 7.4; (F) any Taxes attributable to any breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller set forth in Section 3.10 or, to the extent related to Taxes, Section 3.6 or Section 3.11, (G) any Taxes directly attributable to the failure of Seller to duly perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement (the remedy for which survives the Closing); (H) any Taxes that are Retained Liabilities, or (I) any Taxes attributable to any Subpart F income, determined in accordance with Section 952 of the Code, of any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary that is a characterized as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period in accordance with Section 7.1(b).

(b) From and after Closing, and subject to Section 9.3 and this Section 9.4, Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Subsidiaries and each of their Affiliates and each of Seller’s, its Subsidiaries’ and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against and will compensate and reimburse Buyer for (regardless of whether such Losses relate to any Third Party Claim) (i) any Losses or Taxes to the extent arising from or directly relating to, (A) the failure of Buyer to duly perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement (the remedy for which survives the Closing), (B) any of the Assumed Liabilities (regardless of whether such Assumed Liabilities were assumed by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3), or (C) any breach of any representation of Buyer set forth in Article IV of this Agreement or in the certificate delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 8.2(c) and (ii) without duplication, (A) any Taxes attributable to or imposed on the Acquired FH Assets for or relating to any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date and the portion of any Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date (computed in accordance with Section 7.1 hereof) (each, a “Post-Closing Tax Period”); (B) any Taxes of the Transferred FH Companies and their Closing Subsidiaries for or relating to a Post-Closing Tax Period; (C) any Taxes attributable to any Subpart F income, determined in accordance with Section 952 of the Code, of a Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary that is a characterized as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent such Subpart F income is allocated to the Post-Closing Tax Period in accordance with Section 7.1(b); (D) all liability for Taxes related to a Buyer Tax Act; and (E) any Transfer Taxes for which Buyer is responsible under Section 7.4; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event shall (x) Buyer have any obligations under this Section 9.4(b) with respect to any matter for which any Buyer Indemnified Party is or would be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.4(a), disregarding for this purpose any limitations, including as to time, survival periods, deductibles, thresholds, caps, knowledge or materiality qualifiers or (y) Seller or any of its Affiliates have any right of contribution against any Transferred FH Company or Closing Subsidiary with respect to any matter for which any Buyer Indemnified Party is or would be entitled to indemnification under Section 9.4(a), disregarding for this purpose any limitations, including as to time, survival periods, deductibles, thresholds, caps, knowledge or materiality qualifiers.

(c) An Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under any insurance policy for which coverage is or may be reasonably available in respect of such Loss. Any calculation of Losses for purposes of this Section 9.4 (including for purposes of

determining the amount of Losses for purposes of sub-sections (i) and (j) below) or any indemnity payments made under Article VII hereof shall be (i) net of any insurance or other third party recovery made by the Indemnified Party (whether paid directly to such Indemnified Party or assigned by the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party), after deducing all costs and expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such insurance or other third party recovery and any increases in insurance premiums and (ii) reduced to take into account any net Tax benefit realized by any of the Indemnified Parties organized outside of the United States arising from the deductibility of any such Losses or Taxes realized in the taxable year of such Loss or Tax, or the immediately succeeding taxable year. A party (and its Affiliates) shall not be deemed to have suffered a “Loss” with respect to an item to the extent such party was actually compensated therefor by reason of an increase in the amount otherwise paid to it or a reduction in the amount otherwise paid by it pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof.

(d) If a party is entitled to bring a claim under more than one provision of Section 9.4(a) or Section 9.4(b), as the case may be, such party may choose in its sole and absolute discretion the provision or provisions under which it seeks indemnification but in no event shall any party be entitled to recover more than once in respect of the same Loss.

(e) No Action or claim for Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 9.4 with respect to a breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement shall be brought or made after the date on which such representation or warranty shall terminate pursuant to Section 9.3 hereof, regardless of when the facts underlying such claim are first discovered; provided, however, that any claim made after the Closing and prior to such termination date with reasonable specificity by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party shall survive (and be subject to indemnification) until it is finally and fully resolved. Any Action or claim for Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 9.4 with respect to a breach of any covenant or agreement may be made at any time during the term of such covenant or agreement or prior to the one year anniversary of any termination of such covenant or agreement pursuant to Section 9.3.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 9.4(a) in respect of any Losses or Taxes to the extent such Losses or Taxes were taken into account in determining the Final Net Working Capital. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(ii) in respect of any Losses or Taxes (i) that result from any action taken on the Closing Date by Buyer or any of its Affiliates outside of the ordinary course of business (other than any such action expressly required or permitted by this Agreement or required by applicable Law) (a “Buyer Tax Act”) or (ii) that are Transfer Taxes for which Buyer is responsible under Section 7.4, or (iii) that are Taxes attributable to a Post-Closing Tax Period other than such Taxes (A) attributable to a breach of representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.10(g), Section 3.10(i), Section 3.10(j), or Section 3.10(k), or (B) that are subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(ii)(C), Section 9.4(a)(ii)(E), Section 9.4(a)(ii)(G) or Section 9.4(a)(ii)(H).

(g)

(i) Upon receipt by a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party”) of notice from a third party of any Third Party Claim against such Indemnified Party with respect to which such Indemnified Party desires to make a claim for Losses under this Section 9.4 (other than any such action, suit, proceeding, claim, demand or assessment relating to Taxes), the Indemnified Party (or Seller or Buyer on behalf of an Indemnified Party) shall promptly give written notice thereof to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) setting forth, with reasonable specificity, the nature of and facts underlying each particular claim (including a description of the basis on which indemnification is being sought under this Agreement), a copy of any documentation received from the third party and, to the extent known, an estimate of the Losses relating thereto; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not eliminate the right to indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been prejudiced as a result of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter as to which the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification hereunder; provided that the Indemnifying Party may assume control of such defense only if (A) it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any Losses that may be assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified fully pursuant to this Section 9.4 and (B) such Third Party Claim does not involve criminal liability of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or seek material injunctive relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. If the Indemnifying Party shall, in accordance with the preceding sentence, undertakes to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim, it shall notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days after the Indemnifying Party initially receives notice of such Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party (it being understood that the Indemnified Party shall have the right prior to receipt of such notice from the Indemnifying Party to take all actions that the Indemnified Party deems necessary or appropriate to preserve its rights with respect to such Third Party Claim), and the Indemnified Party shall agree to cooperate fully, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise of, or defense against, any such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such asserted liability without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless such settlement fully and unconditionally releases the Indemnified Party in connection with such matter and provides relief consisting solely of money damages borne by the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding an election of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of one firm of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction (and shall pay such fees, costs and expenses to or as directed by the Indemnified Party at least quarterly), if, but only if, (x) the defendants in, or targets of, any such action or proceeding include both an Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there is a material conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to such proceeding (in which case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party) or (y) the Indemnified Party controls the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 9.4(g). In any event, the Indemnified Party and its counsel shall cooperate with the Indemnifying

Party and the non-controlling party and its counsel and shall not assert any position in any proceeding inconsistent with that asserted by the controlling party. The controlling party shall keep the non-controlling party advised of the status of such Third Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by such non-controlling party with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions of Section 9.4(g) of the Seller’s Disclosure Letter will apply with respect to any Third Party Claim relating to Retained Asbestos Liabilities.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume or have the right to assume control of the defense of any Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.4(g)(i) above, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense, but in such case, the Indemnified Party shall control the investigation and defense of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that, the Indemnified Party shall not consent to any settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld). The Indemnifying Party’s decision to allow the Indemnified Party to take the lead with respect to any indemnity obligation of the Indemnifying Party shall not limit, expand or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to any such indemnity obligation, and if an Indemnified Party settles a Third Party Claim it is defending pursuant to this Section 9.4(g)(ii) without obtaining the Indemnifying Party’s written consent to such settlement in violation of the immediately preceding sentence, then the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim, to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby.

(iii) In the event any Indemnified Party should have an indemnification claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement that does not involve a Third Party Claim, promptly after becoming aware of any facts or circumstances which the Indemnified Party believes have given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party in writing setting forth, with reasonable specificity, the nature of and facts underlying each particular claim (including a description of the basis on which indemnification is being sought under this Agreement) and, to the extent known, an estimate of the Losses relating thereto. The failure by any Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in the appropriate court of competent jurisdiction.

(h) Except in cases of fraud or Intentional Breach, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement (i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than injunctive relief or specific performance as contemplated by Section 10.7) following the Closing with respect to any breach or non-fulfillment of any representation, warranty, agreement, covenant or any other obligation contained in this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, (ii) shall apply without regard to, and shall not be subject to, any limitation by reason of set-off, limitation or otherwise and (iii) are intended to be comprehensive and not to be limited by any

requirements of Law concerning prominence of language or waiver of any legal right under any Law (including rights under any workers compensation statute or similar statute conferring immunity from suit). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims and causes of action (including rights of contributions, if any) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that it may have against Seller or any of its Affiliates or Buyer or any of its Affiliates, as the case may be, arising under or based upon any Law (including any such Law relating to environmental matters (including Environmental Laws) or arising under or based upon any securities Law, common Law or otherwise).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except in cases of fraud or Intentional Breach or, in the case of the following clause (ii), breaches of Seller Fundamental Representations or Buyer Fundamental Representations, neither Seller nor Buyer shall be required to provide indemnification for Losses under Section 9.4(a)(i)(C), Section 9.4(a)(ii)(F) or Section 9.4(b)(i)(C) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, respectively, (i) for any individual item where the Loss relating thereto is less than $75,000 (the “De Minimis Claim Threshold”) or (ii) in respect of each individual item where the Loss relating thereto is equal to or greater than the De Minimis Claim Threshold, unless (i) in the case of breaches of Section 3.24, the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect of claims that exceed the De Minimis Claim Threshold (in the aggregate) exceeds $1,000,000 (the “Lower Basket”), in which case the obligation to provide indemnification under Section 9.4(a)(i)(C) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall only apply with respect to such amounts that are in excess of the Lower Basket or (ii) the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, in respect of claims that exceed the De Minimis Claim Threshold (in the aggregate) (other than Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties in respect of breaches of Section 3.24 by Seller, which shall not be taken into account) exceeds $6,000,000 (the “Basket”), in which case the obligation to provide indemnification under Section 9.4(a)(i)(C), Section 9.4(a)(ii)(F) or Section 9.4(b)(i)(C) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, shall only apply with respect to such amounts that are in excess of the Basket.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except in cases of fraud or Intentional Breach, neither Seller nor Buyer shall be required to make payments for indemnification to Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties, respectively, (i) under Section 9.4(a)(i)(C) or Section 9.4(a)(ii)(F)(other than in cases of breaches of Seller Fundamental Representations) or Section 9.4(b)(i)(C) (other than in cases of breaches of Buyer Fundamental Representations) when the aggregate amounts paid by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, with respect thereto exceeds $58,250,000 or (ii) under Section 9.4(a)(i)(C), Section 9.4(a)(ii)(F) or Section 9.4(b)(i)(C) when the aggregate amounts paid by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, with respect thereto exceeds the Final Purchase Price.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for purposes of determining (i) whether there has been a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant to Section 8.2(c) or Section 8.3(c) and (ii) the amount of Losses for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Section 9.4, each such representation or warranty (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.5(a), the first sentence of Sections 3.6, 3.8, 4.11(b), 4.11(d) and any other

representations and warranties calling for a list of “material” items) shall be deemed to have been made without any qualifications or limitations as to materiality (including any qualifications or limitations made by reference to a Material Adverse Effect or Buyer Material Adverse Effect).

(l) Any payments made to a party pursuant to this Section 9.4 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes to the extent permitted by Law.

(m) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Seller’s indemnity obligation pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(i)(C) with respect to any breach of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.13 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(1) if the cost of Cleanup or for correcting a non-compliance with Environmental Law subject to indemnity by Seller is increased after the Closing due to an act or omission by any Person other than Seller, any of its respective employees or representatives or a Governmental Authority acting pursuant to its jurisdiction, Seller shall not be responsible for any such increase in costs incurred;

(2) Seller shall not be responsible for any costs, including costs of Cleanup and for corrective actions, to the extent such costs are incurred due to (A) any change in Environmental Laws; (B) any change resulting or arising from the closure, sale, modification, excavation, or construction of, or at, a facility, premises or business; (C) any change in use of the facilities from manufacturing to any other use; or (D) implementation of any Cleanup or corrective action that is not conducted to achieve the least stringent applicable Remediation Standards and in the most cost-effective manner to the extent approved by relevant Governmental Authority; and

(3) Seller shall not be responsible for costs of Cleanup, corrective action, or other Losses arising out of or related to any investigation, compliance or risk audit, assessment, study or other remedial or corrective action that any Buyer Indemnified Party voluntarily initiates, performs or causes to be performed by any Person or Governmental Authority (including costs or Losses arising out of or related to any investigation, compliance or risk audit, assessment, study or other remedial or corrective action that any Buyer Indemnified Party initiates, performs or causes to be performed which is not required by any Environmental Law or by a Governmental Authority).

(ii) With respect to any claim involving a demand for the investigation or Cleanup of any exposure to or Release of Hazardous Substance, Seller shall have the right to take the lead and implement any such investigation or Cleanup. Buyer may, at its own expense, remain reasonably involved. However, for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer’s involvement as provided in this paragraph shall not include voluntary communications or contact of any nature whatsoever with any Person or Governmental Authority except as specifically pre-approved in writing by Seller. Seller shall undertake any such work required herein in a manner designed to minimize disruption, to the extent reasonably practicable, with the conduct of operations at the Real Property. Buyer shall agree to allow reasonable access to conduct any of the work contemplated herein and shall fully cooperate with Seller in the performance of the work.

100

(iii) If Buyer or its Affiliates (1) settles any Third Party Claim, or (2) initiates contact with any Governmental Authority, in relation to any matter for which Seller has an indemnity obligation pursuant to Section 9.4(a)(i)(C) for any breach of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.13 without obtaining Seller’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld), then Seller shall be relieved of its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such matter.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.1 Amendment and Modifications. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented at any time by the parties hereto, but only by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of the parties.

Section 10.2 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, the parties hereto entitled to the benefits of the respective term or provision may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition contained herein; provided that there shall be no waiver of Section 9.2(d), this Section 10.2, Section 10.1, Section 10.9(b), Section 10.9(c), Section 10.14 or Section 10.17 (or any provision of this Agreement to the extent a waiver of such provision would modify the substance of any of the foregoing provisions) in a manner that would be materially adverse to any Financing Source (or its Financing Related Parties) without the prior written consent of such Financing Source (and any such waiver without such prior written consent shall be null and void).

101

Section 10.4 Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provisions of this Agreement, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each of the parties hereto agrees that, except as specifically set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Financing Sources or any of the Financing Related Parties in any way relating to this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the performance thereof or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be exclusively governed by, and constructed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York and without reference to the choice-of-law principles that would result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction.

Section 10.7 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine, and that, subject to the following provisions of this Section 10.7, the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Section 10.7, the parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Except as otherwise contemplated by this Section 10.7, each of the parties hereto hereby waives (a) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

BY AND AMONG

[•], a company organised and incorporated under the laws of [•], having its registered office at [•] [and having Permanent Account Number [•]]¹ (the “Buyer”);

Marg, Ghatkopar (W), Xxxxxx - 000000, Xxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx and having Permanent Account Number [•] issued by the Indian Income-tax department (the “Company”).

The Buyer, the Seller and the Company shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as the “Parties” and each individually as a “Party”.

WHEREAS

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacture and supply of pumps and pumping systems. The Company has a total issued and paid up share capital of INR 40,359,400 (Indian Rupees Forty million three hundred and fifty nine thousand four hundred) divided into 4,035,940 (Four million thirty five thousand nine hundred and forty) equity shares of INR 10 (Indian Rupees Ten) each.

B.	The Seller is the legal and beneficial owner of 4,035,938 (Four million thirty five thousand nine hundred and thirty eight) fully paid up equity shares of the Company (the “Sale Shares”).

C.	The Seller has agreed to sell and the Buyer has agreed to purchase the Sale Shares from the Seller, free from all encumbrances and together with all rights, title and interest therein, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

D.	The shareholding of the Company, aggregating to 100% (One hundred per cent) of the share capital of the Company, on the Execution Date and immediately after Closing (as defined hereinafter) is set out in Part A of Schedule 1 and Part B of Schedule 1, respectively.

E.	The Parties now desire to enter into this Agreement, to set out the terms and conditions mutually agreed upon between the Parties with respect to purchase of Sale Shares by the Buyer from the Seller.

¹	Note to Draft: The PAN of the Buyer will be required at the time of Closing, for the purpose of making Form 15CA/CB filings in India, prior to remittance of the Purchase Price (see Clause 5.3.1).

Note to Draft: The PAN of the Seller is required to be provided to the Buyer prior to the remittance of the Purchase Price otherwise, the Buyer would be required to withhold tax from the Purchase Price at the rate of 20% (instead of 10% applicable on long term capital gains in all other cases). However, if the Seller is unable to obtain the PAN by the Closing Date, another alternative for ensuring that the tax provision imposing the higher tax rate of 20% is not attracted is if the Seller furnishes the following alternate documents and particulars: (1) name, e-mail id, contact number; 2) address in the country of residence; 3) tax residency certificate (TRC); and 4) tax identification number (TIN) in the country of residence - Where TIN is not available, a unique identification number is required to be furnished through which the taxpayer is identified in the country of residence. Do note that it is imperative for the Seller to obtain the PAN since the PAN will also be required for the Buyer’s withholding tax return, for claiming credit of taxes withheld by the Buyer, and for filing the Seller’s income tax return in India.

ARTICLE 5

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 5.1. Demand Registration.

(a) Subject to the Stockholder’s satisfaction of its obligations under Section 5.25 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the financial statements then required, from and after the end of the Lock-Up Period, the Stockholder may request in writing (a “Request”) (a) that the Company file a prospectus supplement (the “Takedown Prospectus Supplement”) to an effective Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act with respect to the Registrable Securities identified in the Request (a “Takedown Request”) or, (b) if such Shelf Registration Statement is not available for the resale of the Registrable Securities, including if for any reason the Company shall be ineligible to maintain or use a Shelf Registration Statement, that the Company register under the Securities Act all or part of the Registrable Securities that are Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder or its Affiliates (i) on a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or, (ii) if the Company is not then eligible to file a Form S-3, any other available form (a “Demand Registration”), in each case, including sales or distributions by way of underwritten offering, block trade or other distribution plan designated by the Stockholder. The Stockholder shall be entitled to make no more than three (3) Requests for an underwritten offering in any twelve-month period (it being understood that each underwritten offering (including any underwritten block trade) under this Agreement shall count as a Request, even if such offering is a Takedown Request conducted pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and regardless of whether such offering is publicly marketed before or after the underwriters agree to purchase the Registrable Securities, unless the Stockholder withdraws its request in the circumstances described in the second sentence of Section 5.6), and each such Request shall be to register an amount of Registrable Securities equal to the lesser of (i) an aggregate market value as of the date of such Request of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) and (ii) the total outstanding Registrable Securities then held by the Stockholder; provided, that any Request pursuant to this clause (ii) shall have a minimum aggregate market value as of the date of such Request of at least twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000). The Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration or Takedown Request during the sixty (60) day period following the effective date of a Registration Statement pursuant to any other Demand Registration or the closing of any underwritten offering pursuant to a Takedown Request. Each Request pursuant to this Section 5.1(a) shall be in writing and shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered and the intended method of distribution of such Registrable Securities. Nothing in this Article 5 shall affect, supersede or otherwise modify any of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in Article 2 or any other provision of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, underwritten overnight bought deals will count as a Request.

(b) Subject to the Stockholder’s satisfaction of its obligations under Section 5.25 of the Purchase Agreement with respect to the financial statements then required, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) on Form S-3 (an “Automatic Shelf Registration Statement”), or if the Company does not qualify as a well-known seasoned issuer as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (a “WKSI”), a Registration Statement (which shall be on Form S-3 if the Company is then eligible to use such form) permitting the public resale of Registrable Securities, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder (including any Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, a “Shelf Registration Statement”), or otherwise designating an existing Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC, covering the sale or distribution of all of the Registrable Securities from time to time by the Stockholder pursuant to one or more Takedown Requests, including by way of underwritten offering, block trade or other distribution plan designated by the Stockholder, and to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become or be deemed effective by the end of the Lock-up Period.

Section 5.2. Restrictions on Registrations. The Company may postpone the filing or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or of a supplement or amendment thereto (including any Takedown Request) or suspend the use of an effective Registration Statement if the Board of Directors determines in good faith that such Demand Registration or Shelf Registration, as the case may be, would (i) reasonably be expected to materially impede, delay, interfere with or otherwise have a material adverse effect on any material acquisition of assets (other than in the ordinary course of business), merger, consolidation, tender offer, financing or any other material business transaction by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) require disclosure of information that has not been, and is otherwise not required to be, disclosed to the public, the premature disclosure of which the Company, after consultation with outside counsel to the Company, believes would materially and adversely affect the Company (any such period to be referred to as a “Blackout Period”). The Company shall not exercise its postponement rights in this Section 5.2 more than twice during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months and such Blackout Period shall not be more than seventy-five (75) days and all Blackout Periods (irrespective of individual duration) shall not total more than ninety (90) days during any such period of twelve (12) consecutive months; provided that a Blackout Period may not commence less than 30 days following the end of the most recently completed Blackout Period. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be permitted to file a registration statement to register for sale, or to conduct any registered securities offerings (including any “take-downs” off of an effective shelf registration statement) of, any of its securities either for its own account or the account of any security holder or holders during any Blackout Period.

Section 5.3. Maintenance of Shelf Registration Statements. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts and take all actions required or reasonably requested by the Stockholder to maintain the effectiveness of its Shelf Registration Statement until the earlier of such time as (i) all Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have

been sold pursuant thereto and (ii) such Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities, in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder and subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2 including, if necessary, by renewing or refiling a Shelf Registration Statement prior to expiration of the existing Shelf Registration Statement or by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky Laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder. The Company shall pay the registration fee with respect to the filing of a Shelf Registration Statement or, in the case of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, a “take-down” from such Automatic Shelf Registration Statement within the time period required by applicable Law. If, at any time following the filing of an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status, the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to post-effectively amend the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement to a Registration Statement or Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 or file a new Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3, have such Shelf Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC and keep such Shelf Registration Statement effective during the period in which such Shelf Registration Statement is required to be kept effective in accordance with this Article 5.

Section 5.4. Selection of Underwriters; Underwritten Offering. If the Stockholder so notifies the Company in a Request, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Demand Registration or Takedown Request to be in the form of an underwritten offering. In connection with any underwritten Demand Registration or Takedown Request, the Stockholder shall have the right to select the managing underwriter, provided, that such underwriter shall be a nationally recognized investment bank. Within two (2) Business Days following the Stockholder’s Request, the Company shall have the right to select an additional underwriter to serve as co-managing underwriter with equal economics but listed to the right of the managing underwriter selected by the Stockholder, provided, that such underwriter shall be a nationally recognized investment bank reasonably acceptable to the Stockholder and provided further that the Company shall not have the right to select an additional underwriter for overnight block trades where such selection would, in the reasonable judgement of the Stockholder, have a materially adverse effect on the success of the offering. The Stockholder may not participate in any registration under this Agreement which is underwritten unless the Stockholder agrees to sell the Registrable Securities held by the Stockholder on the basis provided in any underwriting agreement with the underwriters and completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other customary documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

Section 5.5. Piggyback Registrations.

(a) If the Company determines to publicly sell in an underwritten offering (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a “take-down” pursuant to a prospectus supplement to an effective shelf registration statement) or register for sale any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than a registration pursuant to

Section 5.1, a registration relating solely to any employee or director equity or equity-based incentive or compensation plan or arrangement or any similar employee or director compensation or benefit plan on Form S-8, a registration relating to the offer and sale of securities of any class other than the Registrable Securities even if such securities are convertible or exchangeable into securities of the same class as Registrable Securities, or a registration relating solely to a corporate reorganization (including by way of merger of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with any other business) or acquisition of another business, any registration relating solely to an exchange of the Company’s own securities or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall (i) as soon as reasonably practicable but in no event less than five (5) Business Days prior to the initial filing of a registration statement or preliminary prospectus supplement, as the case may be, in connection with such Piggyback Registration (or less than two (2) days prior to the date of the commencement of any such offering if such Piggyback Registration is conducted as an underwritten unmarketed block trade) give written notice of its intention to effect such sale or registration to the Stockholder and (ii) subject to Section 5.5(b) and Section 5.5(c), include in such Piggyback Registration and in any underwriting involved therein (whether prior to or following the expiration of the Lock-Up Period) all of such Registrable Securities as are specified in a written request or requests (“Piggyback Requests”) made by the Stockholder received by the Company within three (3) days of receipt of such notice from the Company (or two (2) days with respect to an underwritten umarketed block trade). Such Piggyback Requests shall specify the number of Registrable Securities requested to be disposed of by the Stockholder.

(b) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their good faith opinion the aggregate number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering (including an adverse effect on the offering price), the Company shall include in such registration only such securities as the Company is advised by such managing underwriters can be sold without such an effect, which securities shall be included in the following order of priority:

(i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell,

(ii) second, the securities requested to be included in such registration by the Stockholder, and

(iii) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

(c) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary offering on behalf of any holder of Other Registrable Securities, and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their good faith opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such offering without adversely affecting the success of such offering (including an adverse effect on the offering price), the Company shall include in such registration only such securities as the Company is advised by such managing underwriters can be sold without such an effect, which

securities shall be included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities requested to be included in such registration by the Stockholder and the Other Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration on a pro rata basis and (ii) second, any other securities requested to be included in such registration.

(d) The Company and any holder of Other Registrable Securities initiating any Piggyback Registration shall have the right to, in its sole discretion, defer, terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 5.5 whether or not the Stockholder has elected to include any Registrable Securities in such registration.

Section 5.6. Withdrawals. The Stockholder may withdraw all or any part of the Registrable Securities from a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement. If such withdrawal is made primarily as a result of the failure of the Company to comply with any provision of this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the payment of all Registration Expenses in connection with such registration and such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration for purposes of Section 5.1. In the case of any other withdrawal, the Stockholder shall pay for the Registration Expenses associated with the withdrawn registration unless the Stockholder counts such withdrawn registration as one of its three (3) Requests referred to in Section 5.1(a).

Section 5.7. Registration Procedures. Whenever the Stockholder has made a Request in accordance with Section 5.1 that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:

(a) (i) no later than fifteen (15) days, in connection with a Demand Registration, or five (5) Business Days, in connection with a Takedown Request (or two (2) Business Days if the offering requested in the Takedown Request is to be conducted as an underwritten unmarketed block trade), after the receipt by the Company of the applicable Request but subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Required Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, providing for the registration under the Securities Act or the offering of the Registrable Securities which the Stockholder has specified in the applicable Request and in accordance with the intended methods of distribution thereof specified in such Request. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts (A) to have such Required Registration Statement, in connection with a Demand Registration, declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter and subject to the Blackout Periods set forth in Section 5.2, to keep such Required Registration Statement continuously effective for a period of at least ninety (90) days (or, in the case of an underwritten offering, such period as the underwriters may reasonably require) following the date on which such Required Registration Statement is declared effective (or such shorter period which shall terminate when all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Required Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto), including, if necessary, by filing with the SEC a post-effective amendment or a supplement to the Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or by filing any other required document or otherwise supplementing or amending the Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the rules, regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Required Registration Statement or Required Shelf Registration

Statement or by the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities or blue sky Laws, or any rules and regulations thereunder, and (B) to keep the Shelf Registration Statement related to the Takedown Prospectus Supplement in connection with a Takedown Request continuously effective pursuant to Section 5.3, and (ii) before filing such Required Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, as the case may be, or any amendments or supplements thereto, or before using any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities, provide to the Stockholder and any managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel, copies of all documents proposed to be filed or furnished or used, including documents incorporated by reference (but excluding the portions of such documents that are or will be subject to a request for confidential treatment), and the Stockholder and the managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel shall have the reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon, and the Company will make such changes and additions thereto as may reasonably be requested by the Stockholder and the managing underwriter(s) and their respective counsel prior to such filing or use, unless the Company reasonably objects to such changes or additions; provided, however, that the Company shall not file any amendment or supplement or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to which the Stockholder or the underwriters or their respective counsel, shall reasonably object;

(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith and the Takedown Prospectus Supplement, if applicable, and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities (subject to the review and comment provisions set forth in Section 5.7(a) and Section 5.2 above) and perform such other actions (including those described in Section 5.3 with respect to an Automatic Registration Statement) as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement and such Takedown Prospectus Supplement for the applicable periods set forth herein;

(c) furnish to the Stockholder and each managing underwriter or other purchaser and their respective counsel such number of copies of such Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto, the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus) and the Takedown Prospectus Supplement, if applicable, (in each case including all exhibits other than those which are being incorporated into such Registration Statement by reference and that are publicly available), any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities and such other documents as the Stockholder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder;

(d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky Laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Stockholder or any managing underwriter or other purchaser may reasonably requests, and to continue such registration or qualification in effect in such jurisdiction and to maintain any such approval for as long as permissible pursuant to the laws of such jurisdiction and the regulations of the Governmental Authority, or for as long as any such seller requests or until all of such Registrable Securities are sold, whichever is shortest, and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the Stockholder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder;

provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify, (ii) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not so subject;

(e) in the event of any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, (i) enter into an underwriting agreement or similar agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) of Registrable Securities in such offering and use reasonable best efforts to take such other actions as the Stockholder, managing underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities, (ii) cause its senior officers to participate in “road shows” and investor presentations and other information meetings organized by the managing underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) and otherwise reasonably cooperate with the managing underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) in connection with customary marketing activities (provided however, in no circumstance shall the Company be required to participate in road shows or other information meetings in connection with more than three (3) such offerings in any twelve (12)-month period) and (iii) cause to be delivered to the Stockholder and the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) opinions of counsel to the Company addressed to the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s), in customary form, covering such matters as are customarily covered by opinions for an underwritten public offering as the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) may request;

(f) notify the Stockholder and each managing underwriter or other purchaser and their respective counsel, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto (including a Takedown Prospectus Supplement) is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, the Takedown Prospectus Supplement, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus related to the offer and sale of Registrable Securities, or any document incorporated therein by reference contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, and in such case, subject to Section 5.2, the Company shall promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such prospectus, Takedown Prospectus Supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or document so that, as thereafter delivered to the holders of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus, Takedown Prospectus Supplement, Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or document shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading;

(g) use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities which are registered to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed;

(h) provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement and, unless such shares are in book-entry form only, facilitate the timely preparation of certificates representing the Registrable Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends, in such denominations and registered in such names as the selling holders shall request prior to the closing of the offering;

(i) enter into such customary agreements and use reasonable best efforts to take all such other actions as the Stockholder and the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s), if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

(l) use reasonable best efforts to furnish, , at the request of the Stockholder on the date such securities are delivered to the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) for sale pursuant to such registration or are otherwise sold pursuant thereto, an opinion and a “10b5” letter, dated such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, addressed to the underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) covering such legal and other matters with respect to the registration in respect of which such opinion is being given and such letter is being delivered as the Stockholder, underwriter(s) or other purchaser(s) may reasonably request and are customarily included in such opinions and letters;

(s) use reasonable best efforts to take all other steps reasonably necessary to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities contemplated hereby.

In connection with any Registration Statement in which the Stockholder is participating, the Stockholder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding the Stockholder as the Company may from time to time reasonably request specifically for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or prospectus.

Upon notice by the Company to the Stockholder of any Blackout Period, the Stockholder shall keep the fact of any such notice strictly confidential, and during any Blackout Period, discontinue its offer and disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement and the prospectus relating thereto and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement for the duration of the Blackout Period set forth in such notice (or until notice of the termination of such Blackout Period shall have been given to the Stockholder in writing by the Company). The Stockholder agrees that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in clauses (f), (q)(ii), (q)(iii), (q)(iv) or (q)(v) above, it shall forthwith discontinue its offer and disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement and the prospectus relating thereto and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement until its receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by clause (q)(ii), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable prospectus and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such prospectus or Takedown Prospectus Supplement; provided that the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to supplement or amend the applicable Registration Statement and prospectus and any Takedown Prospectus Supplement as promptly as practicable and shall extend the time periods under clause (a) above with respect to the length of time that effectiveness of a Registration Statement must be maintained by the amount of time that the Stockholder is required to discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities.

Section 5.8. Registration Expenses. Subject to Section 6.1, all expenses incident to the Company’s performance of, or compliance with, its obligations under this Agreement including (a) all registration and filing fees, all fees and expenses of compliance with securities and blue sky laws (including the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel for the underwriters in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 5.7), (b) all printing and copying expenses (including expenses of printing certificates for the Registrable Securities in a form eligible for deposit with the Depository Trust Company and of printing prospectuses as requested by any holder of Registrable Securities), (c) all messenger and delivery expenses, (d) all fees and expenses of the Company’s independent certified public accountants and counsel (including, with respect to “comfort” letters and opinions) and (e) all reasonable fees and disbursements of one single primary outside counsel and one outside local counsel for each jurisdiction that Registrable Securities shall be distributed for the holders thereof, which counsels shall be selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Stockholder, and in the case of the primary outside counsel shall be of national standing (collectively, the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the Company. The Registration Expenses shall be borne by the Company regardless of whether or not any registration statement is filed or becomes effective. The Company will pay its internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties, the expense of

any annual audit and the expense of any liability insurance), the expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange and included in each established over-the-counter market on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or traded and any expenses of the Company incurred in connection with any “road show”. The Stockholder shall pay its pro rata portion (based on the number of Registrable Securities registered) of all underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the sale of the Stockholder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to any registration.

Section 5.9. Requested Information. Not less than five (5) Business Days before the expected filing date of each Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement pursuant to this Agreement (or as soon as reasonably practical in connection with a Takedown Prospectus Supplement to be filed in connection with an unmarketed block trade), the Company shall notify each holder of Registrable Securities who has timely provided the requisite notice hereunder entitling such holder to register Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement of the information, documents and instruments from such holder that the Company or any underwriter or other purchaser reasonably requests in connection with such Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, including a questionnaire, custody agreement, power of attorney, lockup letter and underwriting or other agreement, each in customary form reasonably acceptable to such holders (the “Requested Information”). If the Company has not received, on or before the second Business Day before the expected filing date of the Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement, the Requested Information from such holder, the Company may file the Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement without including Registrable Securities of such holder. The failure to so include in any Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement the Registrable Securities of a holder of Registrable Securities (with regard to that Registration Statement or Takedown Prospectus Supplement) shall not result in any liability on the part of the Company to such holder.

Section 5.10. Holdback Agreements. The Stockholder agrees to enter into customary agreements restricting the sale or distribution of Equity Securities to the extent reasonably required in writing by the lead managing underwriter(s) with respect to an applicable underwritten primary offering on behalf of the Company relating to the registration of Equity Securities having an aggregate value of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000) during the period commencing on the date of the request (which shall be no earlier than fourteen (14) days prior to the expected “pricing” of such underwritten offering) and continuing for not more than sixty (60) days after the date of the “final” prospectus (or “final” prospectus supplement if the underwritten offering is made pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement), pursuant to which such underwritten offering shall be made, plus an extension period, as may be proposed by the lead managing underwriter(s), required to address any applicable FINRA regulations regarding the publishing of research, or such lesser period as is required by the lead managing underwriter(s). The Stockholder shall not be required to enter into a holdback agreement pursuant to this Section 5.10 (a) at any time when the aggregate number of Shares that are Beneficially Owned by the Stockholder and its Group Members, as a Group, is less than 5% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, (b) unless the Company and the directors and executive officers of the Company are subject to comparable restrictions, (c) unless the Stockholder has had the opportunity to review and provide reasonable comments on any such holdback agreement and (d) unless the Stockholder was offered an opportunity to participate in

the offering pursuant to Section 5.5. The postponement rights in clause (b) of the first sentence in Section 5.2 and the holdback obligation in this Section 5.10 shall not be applicable to the Stockholder for more than a total of one hundred fifty (150) days during any period of twelve (12) consecutive months.

Section 5.11. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the Stockholder the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the effective date of the first registration filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public;

(b) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

(c) so long as the Stockholder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Stockholder promptly upon request (i) a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 of the Securities Act and of the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company filed with the SEC and (iii) such other reports and documents as the Stockholder may reasonably request in connection with availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration, in each case to the extent not readily publicly available.

Section 5.12. Company Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Stockholder, its Affiliates and each of its and their respective directors, officers, partners, members, employees, advisors, representatives and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Stockholder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses whatsoever (including reasonable, documented expenses of investigation and reasonable, documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) caused by, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including a Takedown Prospectus Supplement)covering the resale of any Registrable Securities by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws or rules thereunder by the Company relating to any action or inaction by the Company in connection with such registration, except insofar as such untrue statement or omission is based on information contained in any affidavit or statement furnished in writing by the Stockholder for use in connection with such Registration Statement, which shall be limited to the Stockholder’s name, address and number of shares of Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Stockholder.

Section 5.13. Stockholder Indemnification. The Stockholder and any Permitted Transferees jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company, its Affiliates, its and their respective directors, officers, partners, members and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable, documented expenses of investigation and reasonable, documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) caused by, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, prospectus or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto (including Takedown Prospectus Supplement) covering the resale of any Registrable Securities by or on behalf of the Stockholder or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit furnished in writing by the Stockholder for use in connection with such Registration Statement, which shall be limited to the Stockholder’s name, address and number of shares of Registrable Securities owned by the Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stockholder shall not be liable for any amounts in excess of the net proceeds received by the Stockholder from sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement to which the claims relate. This indemnity shall be in addition to any liability the Stockholder may otherwise have. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by the Company.

Section 5.14. Resolution of Claims. Any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 5 shall give prompt written notice to the indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification; provided that the failure so to notify the indemnifying Party shall not relieve the indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to the indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced or otherwise forfeits substantive rights or defenses by reason of such failure. If notice of commencement of any such action is given to the indemnifying Party as above provided, the indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by the indemnified party unless (a) the indemnifying Party agrees to pay the same, (b) the indemnifying Party fails to assume the defense of such action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party within a reasonable amount of time after receipt of notice of such claim from the Indemnified Parry or (c) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying Party and the indemnified party and such parties have been advised by such counsel that either (i) representation of such indemnified party and the indemnifying Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (ii) it is reasonably foreseeable that there will be one or more material legal defenses available to the indemnified party which are different from or additional to those

available to the indemnifying Party. In any of such cases, the indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of such action with its own counsel, the reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the indemnifying Party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties. No indemnifying Party shall be liable for any settlement entered into without its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). No indemnifying Party shall, without the consent of such indemnified party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such indemnified party is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include an omission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

Section 5.15. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 5.12 or Section 5.13 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable Law contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying Party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of Law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying Party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any loss, claim, damage or liability referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.15, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5.15 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 5.15. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 5.16. Company Facilitation of Sale. If any Registrable Securities are certificated and bear any restrictive legend, or are held in non-certificated book-entry form and are subject to any stop transfer or similar instruction or restriction, the Company shall upon the request of the holder of such Registrable Securities, as applicable, promptly cause such legends to be removed and new certificates without any restrictive legends to be issued or cause such stop transfer or similar instructions or restrictions to be promptly terminated and removed, including by delivering customary representation letters and instruction letters to the transfer agent reasonably acceptable to the transfer agent, if (a) such Registrable Securities have been resold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement or (b) the holder of such Registrable

Securities provides the transfer agent with reasonable assurance that such Registrable Securities can be sold, assigned or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 or otherwise without registration and without any restriction whatsoever under the applicable requirements of the Securities Act, including an opinion of outside legal counsel (the reasonable costs and expenses of which shall be reimbursed by the Company), reasonably acceptable to the transfer agent, to such effect.

Section 5.17. Transfers. To the extent that any Registrable Securities are Transferred, the obligations of the Company shall not be expanded in any respect and, the registration rights provided for in this Article 5, to the extent assigned, shall be shared by all holders of Registrable Securities and all such persons shall be jointly and severally liable for any obligations.

Section 5.18. WKSI Status. The Company is not an ineligible issuer and is a WKSI, in each case as defined under the Securities Act, and is currently eligible to file and use an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement.

Section 6.6. Successors and Assigns. Subject to clauses (a) and (b) below, this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(a) The Company may not assign or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Stockholder; provided that no such consent shall be required for any assignment by the Company of its rights or obligations hereunder in connection with a merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization or similar transaction or the transfer, sale, lease, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of its assets.

(b) The Stockholder may not assign or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company; provided that no such consent shall be required for (i) subject to Section 6.6(d), any assignment by the Stockholder of its rights or obligations hereunder in connection with a merger, consolidation, combination, reorganization or similar transaction in or to which the Stockholder is a constituent Person or the transfer, sale, lease, conveyance or disposition of all or substantially all of the Stockholder’s assets, if such assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement or (ii) (x) the assignment or delegation by the Stockholder of any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a Permitted Transferee or (y) in any other Transfer made in accordance with Article 2 of at least 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the date of the Purchase Agreement, if, in the case of (ii)(x) and (ii)(y) above, such transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and together with the Stockholder and any prior transferees shall be deemed the Stockholder; provided further that no such assignment or delegation shall relieve the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement until such time as the Stockholder no longer Beneficially Owns any Registrable Securities.

(c) Except as provided in Section 6.6(d), the covenants and agreements of the Stockholder set forth in Articles 2, 3 and 4 shall not be binding upon or restrict any transferee of Shares other than Permitted Transferees in accordance with Section 2.1(a)(iii) or any transferee of Shares pursuant to a Transfer in connection with which the Stockholder’s rights under this Agreement are assigned to the transferee pursuant to Section 6.6(b)(i), and no transferee of Shares other than such Permitted Transferees or a transfer of the Stockholder’s rights pursuant to Section 6.6(b) shall have any rights under this Agreement.

(d) The Stockholder will not enter into any transaction pursuant to which any Person would become its ultimate parent entity (such that the Stockholder is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of another Person or all or substantially all of the Stockholder’s equity securities or assets have been acquired by another Person) without causing such Person to assume all of the Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement effective as of the consummation of such transaction.

Section 6.7. Non-Affiliation. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not and shall not cause, direct or permit any of its Subsidiaries or Group Members to (a) identify the Stockholder or any of its Affiliates (each, a “Stockholder Party” and collectively, the “Stockholder Parties”) or otherwise hold any Stockholder Party out to be an Affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that such identification is required by applicable Law, by virtue of the Stockholder’s Beneficial Ownership of all or a portion of the Shares or other Equity Securities, and in such case only to the extent so required by Law, or (b) make, enter into, modify or amend any Contract, other than a Contract executed and delivered by any Stockholder Party, that subjects any Stockholder Party or any of its assets or properties (other than the Shares or other Equity Securities held by the Stockholder), tangible or intangible, to any lien, encumbrance, claim, restriction or similar obligation or grants or allows on or with respect to any such assets or properties any right of use, exploitation, access or discovery to or in favor of any Person.

Section 6.9. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided in Section 5.13, 5.14, 5.15 and 5.16, this Agreement is intended for the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 6.10. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, and the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to substitute one or more valid, legal and enforceable terms or provisions into this Agreement which, insofar as practicable, implement the purposes and intent of the Parties. Any term or provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part, degree or within certain jurisdictions shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable to the extent consistent with the intent of the Parties as reflected by this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Party waives any term or provision of Law which renders any term or provision of this Agreement to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 6.11. Business Days. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted in this Agreement is not a Business Day (including where such period of time is measured in calendar days), then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 6.12. Governing Law and Venue: Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE IN AND IN ALL RESPECTS SHALL BE INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND GOVERNED BY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS RULES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW. The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, to the extent the court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal courts of the United States of America for the District of Delaware with respect to all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement, and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or of any such document, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the Parties agree that all claims with respect to such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in such Court of Chancery or federal court. The Parties agree that a final judgment in any such any action, suit 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. The Parties consent to and grant any such court jurisdiction over the person of such Parties solely for such purpose and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action or proceeding in the manner provided in Section 6.3 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law shall be valid and sufficient service.

(b) EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT 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 THE FOREGOING WAIVER. EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER. EACH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND EACH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS IN THIS SECTION 6.12(b).

Section 6.13. Enforcement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any court referred to in

Section 6.12, without proof of actual damages (and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The Parties further agree not to assert that a Exhibit remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for such breach.

Section 6.14. No Other Registration Rights. The Company shall not enter into any Contract or other agreement or obligation with respect to its Equity Securities that adversely affects the priorities of the Stockholder or is otherwise inconsistent or in contravention of the Stockholder’s rights hereunder, including its registration rights under Article 5 and the “cut-back” priorities in Section 5.5.

[Signature pages follow]

(b) In the event that Buyer internally restructures, reorganizes or transfers the Business to an Affiliate or a third party, Seller shall continue to provide the Seller Services to such Affiliate or third party to the extent provided prior to such restructuring, reorganization or transfer, but only insofar as such Affiliate or such third party continues to conduct the Business.

Section 2.3 Omitted Services. If, at any time following the Effective Date, either Party becomes aware of any service that (a) had been provided prior to the Effective Date that is not included on Schedule 2.1(a) or Schedule 2.2(a), as applicable, or (b) which, due to the separation of the FH Business from the business of the Seller, is reasonably necessary to continue to conduct the FH Business in substantially the manner as the FH Business was conducted prior to the date of the Purchase Agreement, and in each case of (a) and (b), which the Parties had not specifically agreed to omit from such schedule (each such service, an “Omitted

Service”), then upon notice to the other Party, such service will be added to the applicable schedule and become a Seller Service or Buyer Service, as applicable. The Party that must resume such Service shall resume provision of such Service as soon as reasonably practicable. The Fees for any Omitted Service shall be mutually agreed in writing and shall be consistent with the Fees for similar Services hereunder.

Section 2.4 Additional Services.

(a) If either Party desires to receive an additional service which is not a Service pursuant to Sections 2.1 through 2.3 (or to expand the scope or lengthen the duration of any Service), the Service Coordinators shall meet (in person or by telephone) within ten (10) days of the other Party’s receipt of a written notice by the Party desiring to add such additional service to discuss in good faith whether such other Party is willing to provide such additional service (or such expanded scope or lengthened duration of a Service) (each such service, to the extent provided, an “Additional Service”).

(b) The Parties shall mutually agree on the scope, terms, Fees and duration of all Additional Services, all of which shall be set forth on Schedule 2.4.

Section 2.5 Service Coordinators. Seller and Buyer shall each nominate a representative to act as the primary contact person with respect to the performance of the Services (each, a “Service Coordinator”). Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, all communications relating to this Agreement and to the Services provided hereunder shall be directed to the Service Coordinators. The initial Service Coordinators for Buyer and Seller, including relevant contact information, are set forth on Schedule 2.5. Either Party may replace its Service Coordinator at any time by providing notice in accordance with Section 11.3 of this Agreement.

Section 2.6 Standard of Performance. Each Party shall (and shall cause any party performing services on its behalf to) use commercially reasonable efforts, skill and judgment in providing the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, all Services shall be provided in a timely and workmanlike manner, at level of quality, performance and timeliness consistent with past practice in the twelve (12) months prior to the Effective Date.

Section 2.7 Cooperation.

(a) Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its respective Affiliates and third party service providers, to cooperate with the other Party in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services and to minimize the expense, distraction and disturbance to each Party, and shall perform all obligations hereunder in good faith and in accordance with principles of fair dealing. Such cooperation shall include (i) the execution and delivery of such further instruments or documents as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to enable the full performance of each Party’s obligations hereunder and (ii) notifying the other Party in advance of any changes to a Party’s operating environment or personnel (especially changes with respect to employee status), and working with the other Party to minimize the effect of such changes.

(b) Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide information and documentation sufficient for the other Party to perform the Seller Services or the Buyer Services, as applicable, in the manner they were provided in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available, as reasonably requested by the other Party, sufficient resources and timely decisions, approvals and acceptances in order that the other Party may perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely and efficient manner.

(c) The Buyer Parties and the Seller Parties shall follow, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and third party service providers to follow, the policies, procedures and practices with respect to the Services followed by the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Date, except for any changes to such policies, procedures and practices required due to changes in applicable Law (or changes in the interpretation or enforcement of applicable Law) following the Effective Date. A failure of either Party to act in accordance with this Section 2.7 that prevents the other Party or its Affiliates or third parties from providing a Service hereunder shall relieve the Party providing the Service of its obligation to provide such Service until such time as the failure has been cured; provided, that the Party claiming the failure has previously notified the other Party in writing of such failure, where practicable at least five (5) Business Days prior to suspension of provision of such Service.

Section 2.8 Migration and Integration. Except as expressly set forth in Section 2.10 or Schedule 2.1(a) or 2.2(a) hereto, or the Purchase Agreement, the Party receiving Services hereunder shall bear all costs to migrate such Services, from the other Party’s systems and technology and to integrate such Services, as applicable, with such Party’s own systems and technology.

Section 2.10 Excluded Software and Delayed Transferred Software.

Seller shall indemnify Buyer and its Affiliates from and against any third party claims which arise from the provision of such access and use constituting a breach of contract under the applicable Excluded FH

Software Licenses or the IP Contracts under which the Transferred Software is provided to Seller. For the Transferred Software which is licensed from SAP or its Affiliates (“SAP Software”), except for any such software which is an Excluded FH Software License, if the consent to transfer such license to the SAP Software to Buyer is not obtained within six (6) months of the Closing, then Seller shall pay Buyer’s external costs of procuring a replacement from SAP for the license to such SAP Software, up to the extent to which such SAP Software was utilized by or for the FH Business prior to the Closing. Further, Buyer shall not be responsible for its inability to provide the Buyer Services to Seller hereunder to the extent such inability arises from the failure to transfer to Buyer any Transferred Software or any of the software or databases under the Excluded FH Software Licenses. As used herein, “Transferred Software” means software or databases licensed under any IP Contract related to computer software or databases that are used in the operation of the FH Business to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or to which any of the FH Assets is subject, other than the software and databases licensed under the Excluded FH Software Licenses.

If any Party providing, or causing to be provided, Services is wholly or partially prevented from, or delayed in, providing one or more Services, or one or more Services are interrupted or suspended, by reason of events beyond its reasonable control (including acts of God, fire, explosion, accident, floods, earthquakes, embargoes, epidemics, war, acts of terrorism, or nuclear disaster) (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), such Party shall not be obligated to deliver the affected Services during such period, and the Party that would have received such Services shall not be obligated to pay for any Services not delivered.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall promptly give written notice to the other Party of the Force Majeure Event upon which it intends to rely to excuse its performance, and of the expected duration of such Force Majeure Event.

(c) During the duration of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such Force Majeure Event, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume its performance under this Agreement with the least practicable delay.

Accordingly, at all times from and after the Effective Date, each of Seller and Buyer shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to make or obtain any approvals, permits or licenses, implement any computer systems and take, or cause to be taken, any and all other actions necessary or advisable for it to provide the Services for itself as soon as reasonably practicable.

Such invoices shall contain reasonable detail of the Service provided and the charge therefor. The Party receiving such invoice shall pay the invoicing Party for all undisputed amounts due for Services provided hereunder within sixty (60) days from receipt of an invoice therefor.

(b) A Party may dispute any or all charges after the receipt of the applicable invoice. If a Party disputes any charges, the Parties shall work together in good faith to resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.15. If the resolution of such a dispute is that a Party owes an amount of money to the other Party, the Party that owes money shall add a credit of such owed amount to the next invoice that such Party prepares as a Service provider, provided, that if no further such invoices are due, the Party owing such amount shall pay it to the other Party within sixty (60) days following resolution of the dispute. A failure by a Party to dispute a charge within ninety (90) days after receipt of invoice shall not waive such Party’s audit and collection rights under Section 11.15.

(c) The Parties acknowledge that there may be a lag in the submission of charges from third parties relating to the provision of Services, and that the Party providing Services through such third parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such third party invoices, and to provide same to the other Party, in a timely fashion.

(d) The existence of a dispute pursuant to Section 4.2(b) above shall not excuse either Party from any other obligation under this Agreement, including each Party’s obligations to continue to provide Services hereunder.

Section 4.3 Sales Taxes. All consideration under this Agreement is exclusive of any sales, transfer, value-added, goods or services tax or similar gross receipts based tax (including any such taxes that are required to be withheld, but excluding all other taxes including taxes based upon or calculated by reference to income, receipts or capital) imposed against or on services provided (“Sales Taxes”) by a Party providing Services hereunder, or against or on such Party as a result of such Services, and such Sales Taxes will be added to the consideration where applicable. Such Sales Taxes shall be separately stated on the relevant invoice to the Party receiving Services hereunder.

In the event the Party providing Services hereunder fails timely to invoice Sales Taxes on taxable goods or services covered by this Agreement, such providing Party shall notify the Party receiving Services hereunder in a timely manner and such receiving Party shall remit such Sales Taxes to such providing Party, provided, however, that such receiving Party shall not be responsible for the payment of any additions to such Sales Taxes, including penalties and interest imposed due to a failure by such providing Party to remit or cause to be remitted such Sales Taxes in a timely manner to the appropriate taxing authority, unless such failure relates to the failure of the such receiving Party to pay to such providing Party the amount of the Sales Taxes properly invoiced in accordance with the terms herein.

Section 4.4 No Offset. In no event shall a Party offset any amounts due hereunder for its receipt of Services by amounts owed to it hereunder for its provision of Services.

All user identification numbers and passwords for a Party’s Network disclosed to the other Party, and any information obtained from the use of such Party’s Network, shall be deemed Confidential Material of such disclosing Party.

(b) The Party providing a Service will provide the other Party and its employees, contractors, agents, auditors and advisers with such information, assistance and access to such Party’s premises, employees and documentation as is reasonable in order that they may fully and promptly carry out each audit; provided, that the auditing Party will permit the audited Party the opportunity to deliver any information required by the auditing Party prior to the auditing Party carrying out any audit hereunder which may render an audit visit unnecessary.

In addition to the rights set out above, each Party acknowledges and agrees that certain government departments and regulatory, statutory and other entities, committees and bodies which, whether under statute, rules, regulations, codes of practice or otherwise, are entitled to regulate, investigate or influence any matters within this Agreement or any other affairs of the other Party (collectively, “Regulatory Bodies”) from time to time require the right, whether by virtue of Law, regulation, code of conduct or otherwise, to investigate the affairs of such other Party; and accordingly each Party agrees to provide such access as is referred to in Section 5.4 and all such other access, information and assistance as such Regulatory Bodies properly require in order to fulfill such requirements. If a Party considers that any requirement relates to information which is confidential to such Party, such Party will be entitled to disclose the information directly to the Regulatory Body without having to disclose it to the other Party.

Section 5.6 Audit Results.

(a) Without prejudice to each Party’s other rights under this Agreement, if the other Party’s exercise of its rights under this Article results in audit findings that such Party has failed to perform its material obligations under this Agreement, the auditing Party will make the audit findings available to the audited Party, and the Parties will use all reasonable efforts to agree to a remedial plan and a timetable for achievement of the planned actions and/or improvements. Following agreement of the timetable, the audited Party will implement that plan in accordance with the agreed timescales and will confirm its completion by a notice in writing to the auditing Party.

Section 6.5 Injunctive Relief. Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that a Party may have, each Party acknowledges that the other Party may not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach by such Party or its Personnel of the provisions of this Article VI, and that therefore any such other Party shall be entitled to equitable relief including injunctive relief.

Section 9.2 Indemnification of Seller. Subject to the terms of this Article IX, from and after the Effective Date, Buyer shall indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties” and, together with the Buyer Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all any and all Losses (including such fees and expenses related to the enforcement of this Agreement), to the extent resulting from or arising out of any Third Party Claim to the extent resulting from or arising out of Buyer Parties’ material breach of this Agreement, or (b) a claim that Services and materials provided by a Buyer Party under this Agreement infringe or misappropriate such third party’s Intellectual Property, solely to the extent such claim arises from modifications to such Services and materials made by a Buyer Party after the Closing.

Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement or threatened commencement of any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action or proceeding involving a Third Party Claim in respect of which such Indemnified Party will seek indemnification pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall, in the case of a Buyer Indemnified Party, notify Seller, and, in the case of a Seller Indemnified Party, notify Buyer (Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, the “Indemnifying Party”), in writing. No failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve it of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that it can demonstrate that it was materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of notice to elect, at its option, to assume and control the defense of, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such Third Party Claim, and shall be entitled to assert any and all defenses available to the Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, however, that the (i) applicable Seller Party shall have sole control of the defense (including selecting counsel) of any Third Party Claim brought against such Seller Party by (A) any customer of such Seller Party or (B) any Regulatory Body or other supervisory agency, notwithstanding the fact that such Seller Partyis indemnified by the Indemnifying Party for such Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.2 and (ii) applicable Buyer Party shall have sole control of the defense (including selecting counsel) of any Third Party Claim brought against such Buyer Party by (A) any customer of such Buyer Party or (B) any Regulatory Body or other supervisory agency, notwithstanding the fact that such Buyer Partyis indemnified by the Indemnifying Party for such Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.1. For any such Third Party Claims, such Seller Party shall not settle, compromise or discharge, or admit any liability with respect to, such Third Party Claims without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(c) If the Indemnifying Party (or the Party otherwise controlling the defense of settlement pursuant to clause (b) above) shall undertake to compromise or defend any such Third Party Claim, it shall promptly, but in any event within ten (10) days of the receipt of notice

from the Indemnified Party of such Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise of, or defense against, any such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party (or the Party otherwise controlling the defense of settlement pursuant to clause (b) above) shall not settle, compromise or discharge, or admit any liability with respect to, any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless the relief consists solely of money Losses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party and includes a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the other Party from all liability with respect thereto.

(d) Notwithstanding an election to assume the defense of any action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such action or proceeding, and the Indemnified Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel, unless the Indemnifying Party shall have authorized the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense.

(e) The Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party and their counsel shall cooperate in the defense of any Third Party Claim subject to this Article IX, keep such Persons informed of all developments relating to any such Third Party Claims and provide copies of all relevant correspondence and documentation relating thereto. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Indemnified Party’s cooperation, to the extent requested by the Indemnifying Party, shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. In any event, the Indemnified Party shall have the right at its own expense to participate in the defense of such asserted liability, subject to the allocation of control set forth in this Section 9.3.

(f) If the Indemnifying Party receiving such notice of a Third Party Claim does not elect to defend such Third Party Claim, or does not defend such Third Party Claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, in addition to any other right or remedy it may have hereunder, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, to defend such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or discharge, or admit any liability with respect to, any such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 9.4 Limitations.

(a) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE IX, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY (OR TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY CLAIMING THROUGH THE OTHER PARTY) FOR LOST PROFITS OR FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY MANNER CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION AND WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF, OR OTHERWISE MIGHT HAVE ANTICIPATED, THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL A PARTY’S LIABILITY IN THE AGGREGATE FOR DAMAGES HEREUNDER EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES PAID TO SUCH PARTY BY

THE OTHER PARTY UNDER THE TRANSITION SERVICES SCHEDULE (EXCLUDING ALL AMOUNTS PASSED THROUGH OR PAID BY SUCH PARTY TO A THIRD PARTY HEREUNDER).

(b) THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 9.4 SHALL NOT APPLY TO DAMAGES (i) ARISING OUT OF INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, (ii) RESULTING FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR THE WILLFUL OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OF A PARTY OR ITS PERSONNEL, (iii) STEMMING FROM PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE CAUSED BY A PARTY OR ITS PERSONNEL, OR (iv) ARISING FROM EITHER PARTY’S BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE IV OR ARTICLE VI.

Section 9.5 Exclusions. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Indemnifying Party be obligated under this Article IX to indemnify an Indemnified Party otherwise entitled to indemnity hereunder in respect of any Losses to the extent that such Losses result from (a) the Indemnified Party’s willful or intentional misconduct or negligence, (b) the acts or omissions of the Indemnified Party, (c) violation of Law by the Indemnified Party or (d) acts taken by the Indemnifying Party at the Indemnified Party’s direction.

Section 9.6 Payments. Amounts payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses for which such Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder (“Indemnity Payments”) shall be paid in immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days after the later of (i) the receipt of a written request from the Party entitled to such Indemnity Payment and (ii) the date of payment of the amount that is the subject of the Indemnity Payment by the Party entitled to receive the Indemnity Payment, except to the extent contested by the Indemnifying Party. All such Indemnity Payments shall be made to the designated account of, and in the manner specified in writing by, the Party entitled to such Indemnity Payments.

Section 9.7 Insurance; Tax Benefits.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Losses shall be net of any insurance or other prior or subsequent recoveries actually received by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the claim for indemnification. If an Indemnified Party shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to recover any amounts recoverable under insurance policies and shall not have recovered the applicable Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the amount by which such Losses exceeds the amounts actually recovered.

(b) Any indemnity payments made pursuant to this Article IX by any Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party shall be increased to account for any Tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party upon the receipt of such payment (grossed up for such payment) and shall be made net of any Tax Benefit available to the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates resulting from the payments of the amounts indemnified against giving rise to such indemnity payments. For purposes of determining the amount of any Tax Benefit available or

Tax cost incurred, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to pay Tax at the highest United States federal income tax corporate marginal rate in effect in the year such indemnifiable Loss is incurred and the recipient of the Tax Benefit shall be deemed to realize or utilize any Tax Benefit in the first taxable year that such Tax Benefit may be realized or utilized under Law after taking into account all other Tax Attributes of such Indemnified Party and the projected utilization of such Tax Attributes as computed by the recipient of such Tax Benefit. If a Tax Benefit resulting from the incurrence or payment of Losses is available to any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in multiple Tax years, the amount of such Tax Benefit for purposes of this Section 9.7(b) shall be the net present value of all of such available Tax Benefits, calculated by using a discount rate equal to the long-term.

Section 9.8 Remedies Exclusive. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the remedies provided in this Agreement shall be the exclusive monetary remedies (including equitable remedies that involve monetary payment, such as restitution or disgorgement, other than specific performance to enforce any payment or performance due hereunder) of the Parties from and after the Effective Date in connection with any non-performance, partial or total, of any term, provision, covenant or agreement contained herein.

Section 9.9 Mitigation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that an Indemnified Party asserts or may assert under this Agreement.

Section 9.10 No Double Recovery; No Limitation. The remedies provided in this Agreement shall not be cumulative with any duplicative remedy available pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall limit or alter the obligation of any Party to indemnify any other Party pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.
