(b) Purchaser shall prepare a schedule setting forth the proposed fair market values of the assets of each U.S. Company with respect to which the parties agree to make a joint Section 338(h)(10) Election pursuant to Section 7.10 (or that has been converted to a limited liability company pursuant to Section 5.17(b)) (the “Asset Valuation”) and deliver it to Parent within sixty (60) days following the date that the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement becomes final and binding (or such shorter period otherwise required by applicable Law), for review and approval. Purchaser shall provide Parent promptly upon request with such additional information reasonably requested by Parent relating to the proposed Asset Valuation. Parent shall have thirty (30) days after the later of the delivery of (i) the proposed Asset Valuation or (ii) any additional information requested by Parent pursuant to this Section 2.8(b) (such later date, the “Parent Objection Period”), to object in writing, and if it does not object within such period, Parent shall be deemed to have accepted the proposed Asset Valuation and it shall become final on the day after the expiration of the Parent Objection Period. If Parent objects to the proposed Asset Valuation, it shall deliver written notice of such objection within the Parent Objection Period, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such objection. The parties thereafter shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences regarding the Asset Valuation and if they cannot agree in fifteen (15) days after Parent’s delivery of a written

-21-

objection to Purchaser, the matters in dispute (but only the matters in dispute) shall be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution. The Independent Accounting Firm shall resolve the dispute solely on the basis of presentations by the parties and not by independent review and shall issue a written decision as to the disputed matters within fifteen (15) days after submission of the matter to the Independent Accounting Firm and its decision shall be final and binding on the parties. The costs of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by Purchaser and Parent equally.

(c) Neither Parent, Sellers, Purchaser nor their respective Affiliates shall file any Tax Return (including IRS Forms 8883) or otherwise take, or agree to take, any position on any Tax Return that is inconsistent with (i) the Shares Allocation pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or the Asset Valuation as finally agreed to by the parties or resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 2.8(b) (such allocations, the “Final Allocations”), except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law); provided that nothing contained herein shall prevent Parent, Sellers, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity based upon or arising out of the Final Allocations, and neither Parent, Sellers, Purchaser nor their respective Affiliates shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by a Governmental Entity challenging such Final Allocations. Parent and Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall promptly notify each other in the event of an examination, audit or other proceeding regarding the Final Allocations. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement that is treated as an adjustment to the purchase price for Tax purposes pursuant to Section 7.9 shall be allocated to the purchase price of the Transferred Company to which (or the Transferred Company with respect to whose Subsidiary) such indemnity payment relates.

2.9 Foreign Acquisition Agreements. The transfer of each Foreign Transferred Company organized in a jurisdiction in which local Laws require observance of specified formalities or procedures to legally effect a transfer of such entity will be effected pursuant to short-form acquisition agreements (the “Foreign Acquisition Agreements”) on a country-by-country basis. Each Foreign Acquisition Agreement shall be in substantially the same form as the form of Foreign Acquisition Agreement attached as Exhibit C to this Agreement, except, as Parent and Purchaser may agree, including for: (i) the deletion of provisions which are inapplicable to such Foreign Transferred Company; (ii) such changes as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable local Law; and (iii) such changes as may be reasonably agreed upon by Parent and Purchaser regarding employees and employee benefit matters in order to adapt such agreement to the particular circumstances of the relevant Foreign Transferred Company and country; provided in each case that the Foreign Acquisition Agreements shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Transferred Company or Subsidiary of a Transferred Company and shall not have any effect on the value being received by Purchaser or given by the Sellers, or the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the allocation of assets and Liabilities as between them, all of which shall be determined by this Agreement, or in any way modify, amend, or constitute a waiver of, any provision of this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement.

2.10 French Works Council Process. (a) The Parties acknowledge that, under the French Labor Code, the works’ councils of the French Entities will need to be informed and

-22-

consulted (such process of informing and consulting, the “Consultation Process”) with respect to the sale of the share capital or other equity interests of Sundstrand International SA, Dosatron International SAS, Xxxxxx Xxx Europe, SA and Xxxxxx Xxx Mixing SA (collectively, the “French Entities” and, such share capital or other equity interests, collectively, the “French Interests”). Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless and until Parent has executed and delivered to Purchaser the Acceptance Notice, (i) the provisions of this Article II shall not be effective with respect to the French Interests pending completion of the Consultation Process (provided that the other provisions of this Agreement shall continue to apply to the French Interests), (ii) for the purpose of this Article II (and only this Article II) the French Interests shall not be considered Shares and the French Entities shall not be considered Transferred Companies and (iii) the Purchase Price and the Pre-Adjustment Amount shall each be reduced by the French Purchase Price.

(b) On the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Letter attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “French Offer Letter”), including the price specified therein (the “French Purchase Price”), Purchaser has irrevocably offered to acquire the French Interests and to have the provisions of this Article II apply to such French Interests following completion of the Consultation Process. Upon delivery to Purchaser, following completion of the Consultation Process by Parent, of the executed Acceptance Notice attached as Schedule III to the French Offer Letter (the “Acceptance Notice”), this Article II shall be effective with respect to the French Interests, the French Interests shall be included in the Shares, the French Entities shall be included in the Transferred Companies as though they had always been so included and the Purchase Price and the Pre-Adjustment Amount shall no longer be reduced by the French Purchase Price. (It is understood that the Purchase Price and the Pre-Adjustment Amount each assumes delivery of the Acceptance Notice and therefore already includes the French Purchase Price.) The parties shall reasonably cooperate with one another and with the works’ councils in connection with the Consultation Process.

2.11 China JV Sale Restructuring. If, after the date hereof, Parent determines that an alternative method of effecting the Sale of the China JV Entities (a “China JV Sale Restructuring”) would be beneficial to Parent, Parent shall notify Purchaser in writing of its request to effect a China JV Sale Restructuring and Purchaser agrees to reasonably consider such request in good faith. If Purchaser and Parent agree that it is advisable to undertake the China JV Sale Restructuring, Parent, the Sellers and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate to amend this Agreement and take any other actions deemed (by agreement of the parties) necessary or advisable to implement the China JV Sale Restructuring on terms acceptable to the parties. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the foregoing, if the China JV Sale Restructuring would (a) have adverse Tax consequences to Purchaser, the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, (b) materially impede or delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (c) otherwise materially adversely affect Purchaser, any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof or the Business, and Purchaser does not consent to the China JV Sale Restructuring, in no event shall Purchaser be deemed to have failed to consider Parent’s request in good faith.

2.12 Withholding. Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement such amounts that Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold with respect to any such payments under the Code or any provision of state,

-23-

local, or non-U.S. Law. To the extent that Purchaser withholds such amounts with respect to any Person and properly remits such withheld amounts to the applicable Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated as having been paid to or on behalf of such Person. Purchaser shall promptly, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, notify Parent in writing if Purchaser determines that withholding is required with respect to any portion of the Purchase Price.

ARTICLE III

Section 3.1 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of each Transferred Company’s Subsidiaries, along with each Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization and number of authorized, issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other equity interests, and all holder(s) thereof.

The Shares are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and owned by the Sellers, free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens. Except for the Shares and any interest held by a Transferred Company or its wholly owned Subsidiaries, there are no shares of common stock, preferred stock or other equity interests of any Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries authorized, reserved, issued or outstanding, and there are no preemptive or other outstanding rights, subscriptions, options, warrants, stock appreciation rights, redemption rights, repurchase rights, convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable securities or other agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character relating to the issued or unissued share capital or other ownership

None of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries has any outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other obligations which provide the holders thereof the right to vote (or are convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) with the stockholders of such Transferred Company or its Subsidiaries on any matter. The shares of capital stock or other equity interests of each Subsidiary of a Transferred Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and owned by such Transferred Company or its other Subsidiaries, free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens. There is no Liability for, or obligation with respect to, any dividends or distributions declared or accumulated but unpaid with respect to any shares of the capital stock or other equity interests of any Transferred Company or Subsidiary thereof.

(“SSAI”) and Suzhou Sullair Air Equipment Co., Ltd. (“SSAE”) (together, the “China JV Entities”), free and clear of all Liens. As of the date hereof, Annex 1 to Section 5.21 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true, correct and complete summary of the matters required to be described thereon.

3.3 Authority Relative to this Agreement. Parent and the Sellers have all necessary corporate or similar power and authority, and each has taken all corporate or similar action necessary, to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Parent and the Sellers, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser, constitutes, and each Ancillary Agreement when executed and delivered by Parent and the Sellers party thereto, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of such Ancillary Agreement by Purchaser, shall constitute, a valid, legal and binding agreement of Parent and the Sellers, enforceable against Parent and the Sellers in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable Laws relating to bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or preferential transfers, or similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at equity or at Law) (the “Enforceability Exceptions”).

3.4 Consents and Approvals; No Violations. No filing with or notice to, and no permit, authorization, registration, consent or approval of, any Governmental Entity is required on the part of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Parent or the Sellers of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the consummation by Parent or the Sellers of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, except (i) compliance with any applicable requirements of the HSR Act and under any non-U.S. Competition Laws; (ii) compliance with any foreign, state or federal licenses or permits relating to the Business listed on Section 3.4 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule; (iii) any filings, notices, permits (including Environmental Permits), authorizations, registrations, consents or approvals that may be required to be obtained as a result of the

Assuming compliance with the items described in clauses (i) through (iv) of the preceding sentence, neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement by Parent or the Sellers nor the consummation by Parent or the Sellers of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement will (A) conflict with or result in any breach, violation or infringement of any provision of the respective articles of incorporation or by-laws (or similar governing documents) of Parent or the Sellers or any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof, (B) result in a breach, violation or infringement of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give rise to any right of termination, amendment, cancellation or acceleration) under, or require the consent of or notice to any Person under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Material Contract, or (C) violate or infringe any Law applicable to Parent or the Sellers or any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective properties or assets, (D) result in the creation of any Lien (except a Permitted Lien) upon any of the assets or properties of any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof, or (E) require the approval or consent of, or notice to, or consultation with, any labor union, works council or other employee representative body, except in the case of clauses (B), (C) and (D) for breaches, violations, infringements, defaults and Liens that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) There are no Liabilities of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries or arising out of the Business, in either case, of any nature, whether or not known or unknown, accrued, contingent or otherwise, that would be required by GAAP to be reflected or reserved against on a combined and consolidated audited balance sheet of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries or disclosed in the footnotes thereto, other than those that (i) are reflected or reserved against on the Audited Financial Statements; (ii) have been incurred in the ordinary course of business of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, consistent with past practices, since the date of the most recent balance sheet included in the Audited Financial Statements; (iii) are permitted or contemplated by this Agreement (including Liabilities disclosed in the Seller Disclosure Schedule); (iv) have been discharged or paid off in full; or (v) individually or in the aggregate, are not, and would not reasonably be expected to be, material to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries or the Business, in each case, taken as a whole.

No non-exempt “prohibited transaction” within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code has occurred with respect to any U.S. Transferred Company Benefit Plan with respect to which any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries has any material Liability.

Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability to any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, no condition exists that presents a material risk to any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries of incurring any Liability under Title IV of ERISA or under Section 412 or Section 430 of the Code. No Business Employee has a contractual right to a defined benefit pension benefit in respect of service following the Closing except as required by applicable statutory law. Xxxxxx Europe Ltd and HMD Seal/less Pumps Ltd are the only Transferred Companies or Subsidiaries thereof that participate or within the last six (6) years have participated in the United Technologies Corporation (UK) Pension Scheme (the “UK DB Plan”).

No U.S. Business Employee is entitled to a gross-up of any Taxes imposed by Section 4999 of the Code.

(g) Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability to any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, without limiting the generality of the foregoing representations, each International Transferred Company Benefit Plan that is required to be funded is funded to the extent required by applicable Law, and with respect to all International Transferred Company Benefit Plans, adequate reserves therefor have been

-29-

established on the accounting statements of the applicable International Transferred Company or Subsidiary thereof to the extent required by applicable accounting standards.

(h) Each U.S. Transferred Company Benefit Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code and any award thereunder, in each case that is nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, (i) has been operated in all material respects in good faith compliance with Section 409A of the Code since January 1, 2005, and all applicable regulations and notices issued thereunder, and (ii) since January 1, 2009, has been in documentary compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Except as set forth on Section 3.11(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, and except as required by applicable statutory law, neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (whether alone or in conjunction with a subsequent event) will result in the acceleration or creation of any rights of any Business Employee to payments or benefits or increases in or funding of any payments or benefits or any loan forgiveness.

(c) Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a material Liability to any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, (i) during the three (3)-year period immediately prior to the date of this Agreement, there have been no strikes, lockouts, grievances or other labor disputes with respect to any Business Employees, and to the Knowledge of the Sellers, none are threatened, and (ii) to the Knowledge of the Sellers, the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries have not experienced any attempt by organized labor to cause the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries to comply with or conform to demands of organized labor relating to non-represented Business Employees.

by applicable Law. Correct and complete copies of the Contracts listed on Section 3.11(d) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule have been made available to Purchaser prior to the date hereof.

(e) Neither any of the Transferred Companies nor any Subsidiary thereof has during the twelve months prior to the date hereof been party to any relevant transfer as defined in the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 or 1981 or similar local legislation (a “Relevant Transfer”). No International Business Employee has transferred to any Transferred Company or Subsidiary thereof under a Relevant Transfer who at any time before the Relevant Transfer: (i) was a member of a defined benefit occupation pension plan; or (ii) was a member of a plan providing an interest in or option over stock where that plan has not been materially replicated.

(f) The Sellers have made available to Purchaser a complete and accurate list of all Business Employees as of the date of this Agreement.

3.12 Real Property. (a) Section 3.12(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate, in all material respects, list of all of the real property owned by any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof (the “Owned Real Property”). The Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, have fee simple or comparable valid title to all Owned Real Property, free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens. Neither Parent nor its Subsidiaries have received written notice of any, and to the Knowledge of the Sellers, there is no, material default under any restrictive covenants affecting the Owned Real Property and there has not occurred any event that with the lapse of time or the giving of notice or both would constitute such a material default under any such restrictive covenants.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Sellers nor any Transferred Company nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to provide access to or disclose information pursuant to

-42-

Section 5.1(a) where, upon the advice of counsel, such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege of such party or contravene any Laws (it being agreed that, in the event that the restrictions of Section 5.1(a)(i) or this sentence apply, Parent and the Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to design and implement alternative disclosure arrangements to enable Purchaser to evaluate any such information without violating an obligation of confidentiality to any third party, jeopardizing the attorney-client privilege or contravening any Laws).

(c) At and after the Closing, (i) Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, afford Parent, the Sellers and their respective representatives, during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access to the books, records, properties and employees of each Transferred Company and its Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date to the extent that such access may be reasonably requested by Parent, including in connection with financial statements, taxes and SEC reporting obligations, and (ii) Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, afford Purchaser and its Subsidiaries and their respective representatives, during normal business hours, upon reasonable notice, reasonable access to the books, records and employees of each of Parent and its Subsidiaries to the extent related to the Business or the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries and reasonably requested by Purchaser, including in connection with financial statements, taxes and SEC reporting obligations; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of Purchaser’s, Parent’s or the Sellers’ rights of discovery. The terms and conditions of Section 5.1(b) shall apply mutatis mutandis to any access provided to Parent, the Sellers and their representatives pursuant to this Section 5.1(c).

(d) Purchaser agrees to hold all the books and records of each Transferred Company and its Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date and not to destroy or dispose of any thereof for a period of ten (10) years from the Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by Law, and thereafter, if it desires to destroy or dispose of such books and records, to offer first in writing at least sixty (60) days prior to such destruction or disposition to surrender them to Parent.

5.2 Confidentiality. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time the confidentiality and other obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement in respect of that portion of the Proprietary Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) relating to the Business shall terminate. If, for any reason, the sale of the Shares is not consummated, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms with respect to all Proprietary Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement). The Confidentiality Agreement is hereby amended, as of the date of this Agreement, to include in the definition of “Authorized Recipients” contained therein all existing or prospective equity investors, co-investors and direct and indirect equity and debt financing sources of Purchaser and its stockholders and its and their respective Affiliates and their respective agents, advisors and representatives. The execution of this Agreement shall constitute written consent by Parent pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement to all actions by the Purchaser Related Parties expressly permitted or contemplated by this Agreement that would otherwise be restricted under Section 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement, which consent shall automatically terminate if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1. Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C. and BC Partners Inc. are express, intended third party

-43-

beneficiaries of the two immediately preceding sentences. As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, Parent shall instruct each Person (other than the Purchaser Related Parties) in possession of confidential information about the Business that was furnished within the last three (3) years by or on behalf of Parent in connection with any actual or potential proposal by such Person to acquire the Business (or any portion thereof) to promptly return or destroy all such information. Prior to the termination of this Agreement, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, Parent shall not release any third party from, or waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under, any confidentiality agreement to which Parent is a party that was entered into in connection with its process relating to a sale of the Business (or any portion thereof).

5.3 Efforts. (a) Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under any applicable Laws to consummate and make effective in the most expeditious manner possible the Sale, including (i) the preparation and filing of all forms, registrations and notices required to be filed to consummate the Sale, (ii) using reasonable best efforts to obtain (and cooperating with each other in obtaining) any consent, authorization, order or approval of, or any exemption by, any third party, including any Governmental Entity (which actions shall include furnishing all information required under the HSR Act and in connection with approvals of or filings with any Governmental Entity responsible for or having jurisdiction over antitrust, competition, trade regulation and/or foreign investment) required to be obtained or made by Purchaser or Parent or the Sellers or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with the Sale, and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Sale and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Additionally, each of Parent, the Sellers and Purchaser shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to fulfill all conditions precedent to this Agreement and shall not knowingly take any action after the date of this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any permission, approval or consent from any such Governmental Entity necessary to be obtained prior to the Closing.

(b) Prior to the Closing, Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall each keep the others reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Sale and work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all required consents, authorizations, orders or approvals of, or any exemptions by, any Governmental Entity in connection with the Sale, including by working cooperatively in connection with any sales, divestitures or dispositions of assets or businesses if and to the extent undertaken pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.3. In that regard, prior to the Closing, subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, each party shall promptly consult with the other parties to this Agreement to provide any necessary information with respect to (and, in the case of correspondence, provide the other parties (or their counsel) copies of) all filings made by such party with any Governmental Entity or any other information supplied by such party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the Sale. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, each party to this Agreement shall promptly inform the other parties to this Agreement, and if in writing, furnish the other parties with copies of (or, in the case of material oral communications, advise the other parties orally of) any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding the Sale, and permit the other parties to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other parties in connection with, any

-44-

proposed written (or any material proposed oral) communication with any such Governmental Entity. If any party to this Agreement or any representative of such party receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Sale, then such party will use its reasonable best efforts to make, or cause to be made, promptly and after consultation with the other parties to this Agreement, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. No party shall participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the Sale (or make oral submissions at meetings or in telephone or other conversations) unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Entity, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, each party shall furnish the other parties with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between it and any such Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement and the Sale, and furnish the other parties with such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings or submissions of information to any such Governmental Entity. Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other parties under this Section 5.3 as “outside counsel/corporate in-house antitrust counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel and corporate in-house antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel and corporate in-house antitrust counsel to employees (other than corporate in-house antitrust counsel), officers, or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Purchaser, Parent or the Sellers, as the case may be) or its legal counsel; provided, however, that materials provided pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Business, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable legal privilege concerns. To the extent that transfers of any Permits issued by any Governmental Entity are required as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the Sale, the parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to effect such transfers.

(c) Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, notifications under the HSR Act, and Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to file, as promptly as practicable, any other filings and/or notifications under applicable Competition Laws. In the event that the parties receive a formal request for additional information or documentary materials after an initial notification pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Competition Laws (a “Second Request”), the parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to respond to such Second Request, as applicable, as promptly as possible and counsel for both parties will reasonably cooperate during the entirety of any such Second Request review process.

(d) Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Sale under the HSR Act, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Xxxxxxx Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, and any other United States federal or state or foreign or supranational Laws that are designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions

-45-

having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade (collectively, “Competition Laws”). In connection therewith, if any Action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging the Sale as violative of any Competition Laws, Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to vigorously contest and resist any such Action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other Order whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents, or restricts consummation of the Sale, including by vigorously pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Section 5.3(d) shall limit the right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b) so long as such party hereto has, up to the time of termination, complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Agreement. Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods under the HSR Act or other Competition Laws with respect to the Sale as promptly as possible after the execution of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser shall take all actions necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Competition Laws so as to enable the Closing to occur at such time as Purchaser is otherwise required to effect the Closing (and in any event no later than the Outside Date), including (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Companies, Purchaser, and their respective Subsidiaries, and (ii) otherwise taking or committing to take actions that after the Closing Date would limit Purchaser’s or its Subsidiaries’ freedom of action with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, one or more of the businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Companies, Purchaser, and their respective Subsidiaries, in each case as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any preliminary or permanent injunction, in any Action under any Competition Laws, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing, and in that regard Purchaser shall and, if requested by Purchaser, Parent or the Sellers shall (but if not so requested by Purchaser shall not), agree to divest, sell, dispose of, hold separate, or otherwise take or commit to take any action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or Purchaser’s, Parent’s or the Sellers’, or their respective Subsidiaries’ ability to retain, any of the businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Companies, Purchaser, or any of their respective Subsidiaries. All such efforts by Purchaser shall be unconditional and shall not be qualified by best efforts and no actions taken pursuant to this Section 5.3(e) shall be considered for purposes of determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent and the Sellers shall not be obligated to take any action that is not conditioned on the Closing or that relates to any business or Subsidiary not transferred pursuant to this Agreement.

Parent or the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates may, to be effective at the Closing, amend any insurance policies (other than the Specified Policies) in the manner it deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 5.10(a). From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries and the Business. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.2, at the Closing, Purchaser agrees to take over and assume all the known and incurred but not reported claims of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries and the Business, which have been incurred as of the Closing Date, and Purchaser agrees to be responsible to pay such claims until they are finally settled and disclosed. Subject to Section 5.10(b), Purchaser further covenants and agrees not to seek to assert or to exercise any rights or claims of any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary of a Transferred Company or the Business under or in respect of any past or current insurance policy (other than the Specified Policies) under which any Transferred Company or Affiliate thereof or the Business is a named insured.

Parent and the Sellers shall, on a quarterly basis, submit an invoice to Purchaser for any amounts

-54-

payable to the WC Insurer in respect of such claims, which Purchaser shall promptly (and in any event within twenty (20) days) reimburse to Parent or the applicable Seller.

Without in any way limiting or amending any other rights that any Purchaser Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (e.g., because the matter giving rise to such claim is a matter for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to the matter giving rise to such claim, Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries to, be responsible for satisfying any applicable deductible, or self-insured retention under the Designated Parent Policies relating to any Purchaser Insurance Claim, and Purchaser shall reimburse the members of the Parent Group for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred following Closing in connection with submission or pursuit of any Purchaser Insurance Claim at the request of Purchaser, any Transferred Company or any of their Subsidiaries.

-60-

of the Debt Financing (including by changing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount of the Debt Financing or similar fees) unless the Equity Financing is increased by a corresponding amount, (y) impose new or additional conditions, or otherwise amend, modify or expand any conditions, to the receipt of the Debt Financing or (z) reasonably be expected to (I) delay or prevent the Closing, (II) make the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing) less likely to occur or (III) adversely impact the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements with respect thereto, the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or the likelihood of consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser may amend the Debt Financing Commitment to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof, if the addition of such additional parties, individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to delay or prevent the Closing. Purchaser shall promptly upon execution deliver to Parent copies of any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver to the Financing Commitments. For purposes of this Section 5.19(a), references to “Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments as permitted to be amended or modified by this Section 5.19(a) and references to “Financing Commitments” or “Debt Financing Commitment” shall include such documents as permitted to be amended or modified by this Section 5.19(a). Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Debt Financing Commitment until the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, (ii) satisfy all conditions and covenants applicable to Purchaser in the Debt Financing Commitment (including by consummating the financing pursuant to the terms of the Equity Financing Commitments substantially concurrently with the funding of the Debt Financing) at or prior to the Closing and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, in each case, that are within Purchaser’s control, (iii) enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated by, or no less favorable to Purchaser in the aggregate than, the Debt Financing Commitment, (iv) consummate the Financing at the Closing, (v) enforce its rights under the Debt Financing Commitment and (vi) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment, cause the lenders and other Persons providing the Financing to fund on the Closing Date the Financing contemplated to be funded on the Closing Date by the Debt Financing Commitment (or such lesser amount as may be required to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby). Purchaser shall (I) give Parent prompt oral and written notice of any breach or default by any party to the Financing Commitments or any Alternative Financing, in each case of which Purchaser has become aware, any purported termination or repudiation by any party of the Financing Commitments or any Alternative Financing, in each case of which Purchaser has become aware, or upon receipt of written notice of any material dispute or disagreement between or among the parties to the Financing Commitments or any Alternative Debt Financing and (II) otherwise keep Parent reasonably informed of the status of Purchaser’s efforts to arrange the Financing (or replacement thereof). If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including the flex provisions) contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly arrange and obtain alternative financing from alternative sources on terms and conditions that are no less favorable to Purchaser (taking into account any “flex” provisions), in the aggregate, than those set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment, in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions

-61-

contemplated hereby (the “Alternative Financing”) no later than the Business Day following the final day of the Marketing Period.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Financing Sources” shall mean the entities that have directly or indirectly committed to provide or otherwise entered into agreements in connection with the Debt Financing in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and their respective Affiliates, including the parties to the Debt Financing Commitment and any joinder agreements or credit agreements relating thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by Purchaser with this Section 5.19(a) shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether or not the Financing is available.

-63-

Financing (including original copies of all certificated securities (with transfer powers executed in blank), control agreements, surveys, title insurance, landlord consents and access letters) as are requested by Purchaser or its Financing Sources, provided that no obligation under any such agreement or document shall be effective until the Closing; (ix) cooperating with the Financing Sources’ customary securities underwriting and secured lending due diligence investigation, to the extent customary and reasonable; and (x) using reasonable best efforts to assist Purchaser in obtaining accountants’ comfort letters as reasonably requested by Purchaser, including issuing any customary representation letters to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP; provided that regardless of whether the Closing shall occur, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Parent and the Sellers and their Affiliates from and against any liability or obligation suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or the Alternative Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than historical information relating to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries provided by Parent or its Affiliates in writing specifically for use in the Financing offering documents). Purchaser shall, regardless of whether the Closing shall occur, promptly upon Parent’s request, reimburse Parent for all documented and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Parent and its Affiliates in connection with such cooperation. Parent and the Sellers hereby consent to the use of the Transferred Companies’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing or the Alternative Financing; provided that such logos are used in a manner that is not intended to nor reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) neither Parent nor its Subsidiaries shall be required to pass resolutions or consents to approve or authorize the execution of the Debt Financing, other than resolutions or consents of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries adopted at the Closing, and (2) no obligation of any Transferred Company or Subsidiary thereof under any certificate, document or instrument (other than the authorization and representation letters referred to above) executed pursuant to the foregoing shall be effective until the Closing. Nothing contained in this Section 5.19(b) or otherwise shall require Parent or any of its Affiliates or, prior to the Closing, any Transferred Company to be an issuer or other obligor with respect to the Debt Financing. If Parent at any point believes that it has delivered the Required Financial Information in accordance with this Section 5.19, it may deliver to Purchaser a written notice to such effect, in which case Parent shall be deemed to have delivered the Required Financial Information unless Purchaser shall provide to Parent within five (5) Business Days a written notice describing in reasonable detail what information that constitutes Required Financial Information Parent has not delivered. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Purchaser will be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(2) for any material breach of the covenants, obligations or other agreements contained in this Section 5.19(b) only if such breach impairs or adversely affects the Financing (including any offering of senior notes and/or senior subordinated notes proposed by Purchaser), including the execution, timing and pricing or cost thereof, in a material manner.

5.20 Confidentiality. For a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date (and, in the case of books and records provided or otherwise made available under Section 5.1(c)(i)), a period of three (3) years following the date such books and records are provided or otherwise made available thereunder), Parent shall, and shall cause each other member of the Parent Group to, (a) treat all information relating to Purchaser, the Transferred

-64-

Companies and their respective Subsidiaries or the Business as confidential, preserve the confidentiality thereof, and not use or disclose to any Person such information (except as expressly permitted by this Agreement) and (b) cause its directors, officers, employees, representatives or other agents who have had access to such information to keep it confidential and not to use or disclose to any Person any such information (except as expressly permitted by this Agreement), unless such information is (i) now or hereafter disclosed, through no act or omission of any member of the Parent Group or any of its directors, officers, employees, representatives or other agents, in a manner making it publicly available, or (ii) required by Law or pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the New York Stock Exchange applicable to listed companies to be disclosed. If the disclosure of such information is required by Law or such rules and regulations, Parent shall cooperate with and provide Purchaser an opportunity to object to the disclosure and shall give Purchaser as much prior written notice as is possible under the circumstances. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts, at Purchaser’s expense, to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to any such information required by Law or such rules and regulations to be disclosed.

5.21 China JV Matters. (a) Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including United Technologies Far East Limited (“UTFE”)) to, (i) at Purchaser’s reasonable request, take all action reasonably necessary to enforce UTFE’s rights under those certain framework agreements, equity transfer agreements and irrevocable waivers of rights, each dated May 17, 2012, with China Nanshan Development (Group) Incorporation (“CND”) (collectively, the “China JV Buy-Out Agreements”) if CND is in breach of or default under any of the China JV Buy-Out Agreements, and (ii) refrain from amending, modifying, waiving or terminating any provision thereof (or any provision of the joint venture contract, articles of association or other organizational documents of the China JV Entities) without Purchaser’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed in the case of any such amendment or modification) unless such amendment or modification would not cause the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to incur any incremental Liability and would not otherwise adversely affect (x) any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, or (y) the ability of Parent and the Sellers to timely consummate the Sale in any material respect.

(b) If a “Guaranteed Payment” as such term is defined in the Framework Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, between UTFE and CND (the “Framework Agreement”) or other amount is owed or required to be paid by UTFE, SSAI, SSAE, any Transferred Company or Subsidiary thereof pursuant to the Framework Agreement or any of the other China JV Buy-Out Agreements (excluding the FY2011 Profit Distribution (as such term is defined in the Framework Agreement), which distribution will be paid in full by SSAI and SSAE prior to the Closing), Parent agrees that it shall either pay or cause UTFE to pay in full when due such Guaranteed Payment and other payments.

(c) Parent shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, to comply with the obligations described on Section 5.21 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule on the terms described therein.

ARTICLE VI

EMPLOYEE MATTERS COVENANTS

6.1 Treatment of Business Employees. (a) Effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, Parent shall (or shall cause its applicable Affiliates, including any Sellers, to) transfer the employment of each (i) employee who is listed on Section 6.1(a)(i) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule and who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, is employed by a member of the Parent Group from such member to a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary of any such Transferred Company, and (ii) employee who is listed on Section 6.1(a)(ii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule and who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, is employed by and in active service with a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary of a Transferred Company from such Transferred Company (or a Subsidiary of such Transferred Company) to a member of the Parent Group, as designated by Parent or by the Sellers. With respect to each Business Employee, Purchaser shall maintain, for the Continuation Period, the same wage rate or cash salary and target bonus opportunity level in effect for such employee immediately prior to the Closing and employee benefit plans and fringe benefits that are of the same or substantially the same value, in the aggregate, as those in effect immediately prior to the Closing. Purchaser will also recognize each Business Employee’s seniority date with the applicable Transferred Company, Subsidiary of a Transferred Company or member of the Parent Group under its compensation and fringe benefit programs (where such date is relevant) consistent with Purchaser’s treatment of Purchaser’s employees generally. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall not be prohibited by this Section 6.1(a) from terminating the employment of any Business Employee following the Closing Date, subject, however to Purchaser’s obligations under Section 6.3 and Section 6.14, as applicable. Benefits and compensation for employees subject to a collective bargaining Contract shall be provided in accordance with applicable Law and/or the applicable Contract and subsequent negotiations between Purchaser and collective bargaining representatives. For purposes of this Agreement, “Continuation Period” shall mean the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the later of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date and December 31, 2013.

(b) As of and after the Closing, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the applicable Transferred Company or Subsidiary of a Transferred Company to, give each Business Employee full credit for all purposes under any Transferred Company Benefit Plans and each other employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement, in each case maintained for the benefit of the applicable Business Employees as of and after the Closing by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, for such Business Employee’s service prior to the Closing with Parent or a Seller and their applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) and their respective Predecessors, to the same extent such service is recognized by Parent or a Seller and their applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) immediately prior to the Closing, except to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service.

6.2 Health Coverages. Purchaser shall cause each Business Employee (and his or her “eligible dependents,” as defined in the Benefit Plans) to be covered on and after the agreed upon transition period set forth in the Transition Services Agreement by a group health plan or plans that (i) do not limit or exclude coverage on the basis of any pre-existing condition

-66-

of such Business Employee or dependent (other than any limitation already in effect under the applicable group health Benefit Plan) or on the basis of any waiting period not in effect under the applicable group health Benefit Plan, and (ii) provide each Business Employee full credit, for the year in which the Closing Date occurs, for any deductible or co-payment already incurred by the Business Employee under the applicable group health Benefit Plan and for any other out-of-pocket expenses that count against any maximum out-of-pocket expense provision of the applicable group health Benefit Plan or Purchaser’s group health plans.

6.3 Severance. With respect to each Business Employee (other than any Business Employee who is a party to a Retention Letter) whose employment is terminated by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary of any Transferred Company) without Cause within the Continuation Period, Purchaser shall provide severance benefits in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, taking into account the Business Employee’s period of employment with such member of the Parent Group or its Affiliates (including any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary of any Transferred Company) prior to the Closing and with Purchaser or its Affiliates on and after the Closing. For this purpose, “Cause” means the applicable Business Employee’s (i) conviction of a felony; (ii) commission of a willful and material act of dishonesty involving the Business; (iii) material breach of any fiduciary duty owed to the Business; (iv) material breach of the policies or procedures of Purchaser and its Affiliates that causes material harm to the Business; (v) other willful misconduct that causes material harm to the Business; or (vi) such other conduct constituting Cause as determined by one or more supervisory employees who were employed with the Business immediately prior to the Closing Date.

6.4 WARN and Corresponding State Laws. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than three (3) days, after the Closing Date, Parent and the Sellers shall provide to Purchaser a list of all U.S. Business Employees whose employment has been terminated by Parent, the Sellers or the Transferred Companies within the ninety (90)-day period immediately prior to Closing. Subject to Parent’s and the Sellers’ compliance with the foregoing, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for and agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and, at the option of Parent or the Sellers, to defend the Parent Group from and against any Losses incurred by the Parent Group under WARN or any similar state Law, with respect to any U.S. Business Employee who is found to have suffered an “employment loss” under WARN on or after the Closing Date as a result of Purchaser’s actions, and any and all other Losses arising out of or resulting from Purchaser’s actions or Purchaser’s failure to serve sufficient notice pursuant to WARN or any similar state Law.

6.5 Accrued Vacation, Sick Leave and Personal Time. Purchaser will recognize and assume the liability with respect to accrued but unused vacation time to the extent included as a “Current Liability” in Working Capital and specifically reflected or reserved for on the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement for all Business Employees other than any Business Employees with respect to whom a transfer of such accrued but unused vacation time balances would require the applicable Business Employee’s consent and who do not consent to such transfer (which vacation balances for such non-consenting Business Employees shall be paid to such Business Employees by Parent and the Sellers upon the Closing and not be included as a “Current Liability” in Working Capital or reflected or reserved for on

-67-

the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement). Purchaser will advise the Parent Group as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event more than three (3) days after the Closing Date, which Business Employees do not consent to the transfer of their vacation balances. During the Continuation Period, Purchaser shall allow Business Employees to use the vacation, sick leave and personal time recognized or established in accordance with the first two sentences of this Section 6.5 in accordance with the terms of those Parent Group programs in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date. As to each Business Employee, Purchaser will credit periods of service prior to the Closing Date for purposes of determining accrual rates under Purchaser’s vacation, sick leave and personal time off policies; provided, however, that accrued vacation balances will be recognized only for those Business Employees who consent to the transfer of accrued but unused vacation if such consent was required.

6.6 Disability Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the parties shall reasonably cooperate and take such action as is reasonably necessary to cause any U.S. Business Employee who, as of the Closing Date, is on leave from active employment and receiving short-term or long-term disability benefits under a Seller Benefit Plan to continue to receive or be eligible to receive benefits under the applicable Seller Benefit Plans (including, if necessary, transferring the employment of such employee from a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary thereof to a member of the Parent Group) and Parent shall cause a member of the Parent Group to be responsible for providing short- and long-term disability benefits to any such Business Employee until such Business Employee’s return to active service with the Business. If any such Business Employee who is receiving short or long-term disability benefits as of the Closing Date is, within the Continuation Period, able to return to work, Parent shall promptly inform Purchaser and Purchaser shall offer employment to such employee on terms consistent with those applicable to Business Employees generally under this Article VI. The provisions of this Section 6.6 shall be subject to the terms and requirements of any applicable collective bargaining Contract and Purchaser will return to work any inactive employee of the Business who is subject to a collective bargaining Contract and who is receiving short- or long-term disability benefits as of the Closing Date, but who subsequently becomes able to return to work within the period provided in the collective bargaining Contract that applies to him or her.

6.7 Seller Benefit Plans.

(a) No Assumption or Transfer of Seller Benefit Plans. Unless specifically provided for in this Agreement, Purchaser shall not assume any obligations under or Liabilities with respect to, or receive any right or interest in any trusts relating to, any assets of or any insurance, administration or other contracts, or related obligations pertaining to, any Seller Benefit Plan and the Sellers and Parent shall remain solely responsible for and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Tax Indemnified Parties for any and all Liabilities and Losses under, in connection with or relating to any Seller Benefit Plan or any other compensation or benefit plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement at any time established, maintained, sponsored, administered or contributed to by the Sellers, Parent or any of their ERISA Affiliates (other than the Transferred Company Benefit Plans), regardless of when any such Liability or Loss arises, is incurred, is reported or is disclosed, including any obligations for employment or other taxes and social or national insurance contributions or similar obligations in connection

-68-

with any payment made or benefits provided to Business Employees (or other employees) under the Seller Benefit Plans.

(b) Participation in Seller Benefit Plans. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement, all Business Employees as of the Closing Date and their eligible spouses and other eligible dependents will cease, effective as of the Closing Date, active participation in and any benefit accrual under each of the Seller Benefit Plans and Parent and the Sellers shall be authorized to take all necessary actions to effect such cessation. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this paragraph, Business Employees, their eligible spouses and other eligible dependents shall continue after the Closing Date to participate in accordance with, and subject to, their eligibility under the terms of the applicable Seller Benefit Plans (for the avoidance of doubt, as terminated but vested employees or eligible spouses or dependents thereof) in accordance with the terms of such Seller Benefit Plans.

6.8 401(k) Plan. Effective at or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing, Purchaser shall establish, and the Parent Group shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser to establish, participation by the U.S. Business Employees in Purchaser’s tax-qualified defined contribution plan or plans with a cash or deferred feature (the “Purchaser 401(k) Plan”) for the benefit of each U.S. Business Employee who, as of immediately prior to the Closing, was eligible to participate in a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by a Seller (collectively, the “Seller 401(k) Plans”). If the Purchaser 401(k) Plan is not established effective as of the Closing Date, Purchaser will, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchaser 401(k) Plan is established, make a matching contribution with respect to each U.S. Business Employee who participated in the Seller 401(k) Plans immediately prior to the Closing in an amount equal to the amount that otherwise would have been contributed in respect of such U.S. Business Employee had the Purchaser 401(k) Plan been in effect immediately after the Closing. Thereafter, Purchaser shall continue to make available and maintain the Purchaser 401(k) Plan for a period ending no earlier than the last day of the Continuation Period. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the Seller 401(k) Plans shall, to the extent permitted by Section 401(k)(10) of the Code, make cash distributions (but including promissory notes representing participant loans) available to U.S. Business Employees, and the Purchaser 401(k) Plan shall accept any such cash distribution (but including promissory notes representing participant loans) as a rollover distribution if so directed by the U.S. Business Employee. The parties agree to cooperate so as not to place any loan with respect to a U.S. Business Employee’s rollover account into default during the period from the Closing Date until the rollover is completed; provided that such employee continues making loan repayments on a timely basis during such period in accordance with the Parent Group’s established procedures.

6.9 Flexible Spending Accounts. Effective as of the Closing Date and through the end of the Continuation Period, Purchaser shall establish flexible spending accounts for medical and dependent care expenses for U.S. Business Employees, and shall credit such accounts with the amount (positive or negative) credited as of the Closing Date under comparable accounts maintained under Benefit Plans from the beginning of the plan year to the Closing Date. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, (i) the Parent Group shall pay to Purchaser in cash the amount, if any, by which aggregate contributions made by U.S. Business Employees to the Parent Group’s flexible spending accounts exceeded the aggregate benefits provided to U.S. Business Employees as of the Closing, or (ii) Purchaser shall pay to the Parent

-69-

Group in cash the amount, if any, by which aggregate benefits provided to U.S. Business Employees under the Parent Group’s flexible spending accounts exceeded the aggregate contributions made by U.S. Business Employees as of the Closing.

6.10 Post-Retirement Welfare Benefits. All U.S. Business Employees (and their dependents) who retire within eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date and who immediately prior to the Closing Date were eligible for retiree medical benefits pursuant to any applicable U.S. Seller Benefit Plan shall be provided retiree health benefit coverage by the Seller as if the Seller has not sold the Business; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prohibit Parent or Seller from amending or terminating any such U.S. Seller Benefit Plan in accordance with its terms at any time.

6.11 Collective Bargaining Agreements with Respect to International Business Employees. Purchaser agrees that as of and following the Closing Date, to the extent required by applicable Law, Purchaser shall recognize the unions and works councils that are signatories to the collective bargaining Contracts and other labor agreements as the representatives of the International Business Employees of the bargaining units described therein.

6.12 Information Sharing; W-2 Matters. Subject to the requirements of any applicable Law, Parent and the Sellers shall, upon written request from Purchaser, provide to Purchaser such information relating to the Business Employees or the benefits and compensation from time to time provided to the Business Employees as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser to facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the transaction of any applicable human resource processes, or Purchaser’s compliance with its obligations under this Article VI. Pursuant to IRS Revenue Procedure 2004-53, Purchaser and the Sellers shall apply the “standard” method for purposes of employee payroll reporting with respect to Business Employees.

6.13 Transferred Company Benefit Plans. For the avoidance of doubt, as of the Closing, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall assume, or shall cause the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries to continue, as the case may be, sponsorship of, and all Liabilities and other obligations with respect to, the Transferred Company Benefit Plans.

6.14 Treatment of International Business Employees. Prior to and after the Closing Date, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate to comply with and satisfy any requirement or custom to consult with or provide information to, with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any labor organization representing or related to International Business Employees. In the case of International Business Employees, from and after the Closing, Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies) shall, in addition to meeting the applicable requirements of this Article VI, comply in all material respects with any additional obligations or standards arising under applicable Laws governing the terms and conditions of their employment or severance of employment in connection with the Sale or otherwise. In the event that either (i) Purchaser and its Affiliates, with respect to any International Business Employee, either (A) do not provide a mirror benefit plan that is no less favorable to the applicable International Seller Benefit Plan in which such International Business Employee was covered or eligible for coverage immediately prior to the Closing, or (B) amend or otherwise modify at or after the Closing any such benefit plan or International

-70-

Transferred Company Benefit Plan or other term or condition of employment applicable to such International Business Employee prior to the Closing or (ii) an International Business Employee does not, for any reason, continue employment with Purchaser or its Affiliates (including a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary of any such Transferred Company) at or after the Closing, which, in either case, results in any obligation, contingent or otherwise, of Seller or its Affiliates to pay any severance or other benefits (other than any such severance or other benefits that are vested and accrued under an International Seller Benefit Plan on or prior to Closing) to any such International Business Employee, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reimburse and otherwise hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates for all such severance or other benefits.

6.15 Retention Letters. Parent agrees, on behalf of itself and each member of the Parent Group, that the Parent Group shall comply with all of their obligations as set forth in the Retention Letters. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Parent and the Sellers shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser Tax Indemnified Parties harmless for the amount of the First Retention Payments (together with any and all withholding, employment and other Taxes and all social and national insurance contributions and similar payments in connection with the First Retention Payments) and Purchaser, the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall be solely responsible for the amount of (a) the Second Retention Payments, (b) the Retention Letter Severance Payments, and (c) only to the extent included as a “Current Liability” in Working Capital and specifically reflected or reserved for on the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement, the Pro-Rata Bonus Payments (in each case together with any and all withholding, employment and other Taxes and all social and national insurance contributions and similar payments in connection therewith). To the extent not assumed by Purchaser, the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to the foregoing, Parent and the Sellers shall be solely responsible for and shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser Tax Indemnified Parties harmless for the amount of the Pro-Rata Bonus Payments (together with any and all withholding, employment and other Taxes and all social and national insurance contributions and similar payments in connection therewith). For purposes hereof, “Retention Letters” shall mean those certain letter agreements entered into with the Business Employees listed on Section 6.15 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, which provide for, among other things: (i) the payment of a retention bonus payable 50% upon the Closing (the “First Retention Payment”) and 50% upon the one year anniversary of the Closing or earlier in the event of certain involuntary terminations (the “Second Retention Payment”), (ii) a pro-rated 2012 Parent bonus payable within one month of the Closing (the “Pro-Rata Bonus Payment”) and (iii) the payment of certain severance amounts in the event the applicable Business Employee’s employment is terminated without cause within one year following the Closing and Parent is not able to secure comparable employment for such Business Employee with a member of the Parent Group (the “Retention Letter Severance Payments”).

6.16 UK DB Plan. Notwithstanding Section 6.7(a), with respect to any International Seller Benefit Plan subject to the Laws of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, assume any indebtedness of the employer under Section 75 of the Pensions Act 1995 (as modified by regulations under that Act, the Pensions Xxx 0000 and the Occupational Pension Schemes (Employer Debt) Regulations 2005) related to International Business Employees and former international employees of the Business.

-71-

6.17 No Plan Amendment/Third Party Beneficiary. Without limiting the generality of Section 11.5, nothing in this Agreement shall (a) amend, or be deemed to amend, any Transferred Company Benefit Plan, Seller Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, practice or arrangement or restrict any authority to amend or terminate any of the foregoing or (b) provide any Person not a party to this Agreement with any right, benefit or remedy with regard to any provision of this Article VI, Transferred Company Benefit Plan, Seller Benefit Plan or other employee benefit or compensation plan, program, policy, practice, or otherwise.

ARTICLE VII

7.1 Tax Indemnification by the Sellers. Effective as of and after the Closing Date, Parent and the Sellers, jointly and severally, shall pay or cause to be paid, and shall indemnify Purchaser and each of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries after the Closing Date) (collectively, the “Purchaser Tax Indemnified Parties”) and hold each Purchaser Tax Indemnified Party harmless from and against (A) any Taxes imposed on the Transferred Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Period; (B) any Taxes of Parent, the Sellers or their respective Affiliates (other than any Transferred Company or a Subsidiary thereof) for which any Transferred Company or a Subsidiary thereof is liable under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or under any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), as transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise, in each case with respect to a Pre-Closing Period or by reason of being a member of a consolidated, affiliated, combined or other group for Tax purposes at any time before the Closing; (C) any Taxes arising out of or relating to any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation or warranty contained in Section 3.13(h), (j), (k), (l), and (m) or breach of any covenant or agreement of Parent or the Sellers contained in this Agreement; (D) any Taxes (other than Transfer Taxes) imposed on any Seller or any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof (or Purchaser as a method of collecting such Taxes) with respect to the sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes imposed with respect to the deemed asset sale as result of the Section 338(h)(10) Elections); (E) any Taxes imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated by Sections 5.7 and 5.17 hereof; (F) Transfer Taxes for which Parent and the Sellers are responsible pursuant to Section 7.11; and (G) reasonable legal and other professional advisor fees and expenses attributable to any item described in clauses (A) to (F); provided, however, that the Sellers shall not be required to pay or cause to be paid, or to indemnify or hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Tax Parties from and against (x) any Taxes to the extent such Taxes were included as a “Current Liability” in Working Capital on the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement, after reducing such liability by any amounts paid to Parent in respect thereof pursuant to Section 7.5(d) or (y) any Taxes for which Purchaser is responsible pursuant to Section 7.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event any Taxes for which Parent and Sellers otherwise would be responsible pursuant to this Section 7.1 are set-off or otherwise reduced by the utilization of any loss, deduction or credit attributable to a Post-Closing Period (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any such Tax attribute of a Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof as of the close of business on the Closing Date), Parent and the Sellers, jointly and severally, shall pay or cause to be paid, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Tax Indemnified

-72-

Parties from and against any Taxes imposed with respect to subsequent taxable periods to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed in such subsequent taxable periods but for the prior utilization of such loss, deduction or credit.

7.2 Tax Indemnification by Purchaser. Effective as of and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid, and shall indemnify the Parent Group (collectively, the “Seller Tax Indemnified Parties”) and hold each Seller Tax Indemnified Party harmless from and against (A) any Taxes imposed on the Transferred Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries for any Post-Closing Period (other than such Taxes that are described in Section 7.1(B) through (E) or in the last sentence of Section 7.1); (B) any Taxes arising from any action or transaction undertaken by Purchaser, the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries outside of the ordinary course of business on the Closing Date after the Closing (other than any action or transaction taken pursuant to Sections 5.7 or 5.17 or at the direction of Parent); (C) any Taxes arising out of or relating to any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement; (D) any Transfer Taxes for which Purchaser is responsible under Section 7.10; and (E) reasonable legal and other professional advisor fees and expenses attributable to any item described in clauses (A) to (D).

7.3 Straddle Periods. To the extent permitted or required by applicable Law, the taxable year of each of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries that includes the Closing Date shall be treated as closing on (and including) the Closing Date. To the extent not permitted or required by applicable Law, for purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, (i) Property Taxes of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries allocable to the Pre-Closing Period shall be equal to the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days during the Straddle Period that are in the Pre-Closing Period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period, and (ii) Taxes (other than Property Taxes) of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries allocable to the Pre-Closing Period shall be computed as if such taxable period ended as of the end of the day on the Closing Date; provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period beginning after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each period.

7.4 Tax Returns. (a) Parent shall prepare or shall cause to be prepared (i) any combined, consolidated or unitary Tax Return that includes any member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, on the other hand (a “Combined Tax Return”), and (ii) any Tax Return (other than any Combined Tax Return) that is required to be filed by or with respect to any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Separate Tax Return”). Parent shall timely file or cause to be timely filed any Pre-Closing Separate Tax Return that is required to be filed on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any valid extensions). Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Purchaser all Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns that are required to be filed after the Closing Date at least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax period of the respective Tax Return or other relevant circumstances) prior to the due date for filing such Tax Returns (taking into account any valid extensions) for Purchaser’s review and comment, and

-73-

Parent shall consider in good faith any written comments to such Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns received from Purchaser reasonably in advance of such due date for filing such Tax Returns. Purchaser shall timely file or cause to be timely filed such Tax Returns. Except as otherwise required by Law, all Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law or permitted by this Agreement, Purchaser shall not amend or revoke any Combined Tax Return or any Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns (or any notification or election relating thereto) without the prior written consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. At Parent’s reasonable request, Purchaser shall file, or cause to be filed, amended Pre-Closing Separate Tax Returns. Purchaser shall promptly provide (or cause to be provided) to Parent any information reasonably requested by Parent to facilitate the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns described in this Section 7.4(a) and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare (or cause to be prepared) such information in a manner and on a timeline requested by Parent, which information and timeline shall be consistent with the past practice of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable.

(b) Purchaser shall prepare and timely file or cause to be prepared and timely filed all Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries with respect to any Straddle Period (other than any Combined Tax Returns) (each, a “Straddle Period Separate Tax Return”).

Purchaser shall deliver to Parent for its review and comment a copy of such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns at least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as is reasonable taking into account the Tax period of the respective Tax Return or other relevant circumstances) prior to the due date thereof (taking into account any valid extensions) and Purchaser shall (x) make such revisions to such Straddle Period Separate Tax Return as are reasonably requested by Parent to the extent such revisions relate to the Pre-Closing Period or to the extent such revisions relate to the past practice of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, and (y) consider in good faith any written comments to such Straddle Period Separate Tax Return to the extent such comments relate to the Post-Closing Period and are received from Parent reasonably in advance of such due date for filing such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns. Purchaser shall not amend or revoke any such Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns (or any notification or election relating thereto) without the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). At Parent’s reasonable request and at Parent’s expense, Purchaser shall file, or cause to be filed, amended Straddle Period Separate Tax Returns; provided, however, that Parent’s request shall be deemed unreasonable if such amended Straddle Period Separate Tax Return would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, neither Parent nor the Sellers shall be required to provide any Person with any Tax Return or copy of any Tax Return of (i) Parent or a member of the Parent Group or (ii) a consolidated, combined or unitary group that includes any member of the Parent Group (including any Combined Tax Return).

7.5 Certain Tax Benefits, Refunds, Credits and Carrybacks. (a) If, during the period ending on the four (4) year anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) derives a Tax Benefit as a result of any audit adjustment (or adjustment in any other Tax Proceeding) made with respect to any Tax Item by any taxing authority with respect to Taxes for which Parent and the Sellers are responsible under Section 7.1, then Purchaser shall pay to Parent the amount of such Tax Benefit (net of any corresponding Taxes (i) payable with respect to a Post-Closing Period as a result of such audit adjustment (or adjustment in any other Tax Proceeding) or (ii) payable with respect to the receipt or accrual by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of any such Tax Benefit) within fifteen (15) days of filing the Tax Return in which such Tax Benefit is actually realized or utilized.

(b) Parent shall be entitled to any refunds or credits of any Taxes for which Parent and the Sellers are responsible for under Section 7.1 and any refunds or credits to which Parent is entitled under Section 7.5(a); provided, however, that Parent shall not be entitled to any such refunds or credits (i) if and to the extent such refunds or credits were included as “Current Assets” in determining Working Capital and reflected or reserved for on the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement or (ii) arising from the carryback of any loss generated in any Post-Closing Period. Purchaser shall be entitled to any refunds or credits of Taxes of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries other than refunds or credits to which Parent is entitled to pursuant to the foregoing sentence. Any refunds or credits of Taxes of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between Parent and Purchaser in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 7.3. Each party shall pay, or cause its Affiliates to pay, to the party entitled to a refund or credit of Taxes under this Section 7.5(b), the amount of such refund or credit (including any interest paid thereon by a Governmental Entity and net of any Taxes imposed on the party receiving such refund or credit in respect of the receipt or accrual of such refund or credit and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with obtaining such refund or credit) in readily available funds within fifteen (15) days of the actual receipt of the refund or, in the case of a credit, the filing of the Tax Return actually applying such credit against amounts otherwise payable.

(c) Purchaser shall cause the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries to carry forward, where permitted by applicable Law, any item of loss, deduction or credit which arises in any taxable period ending after the Closing Date into any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date.

(d) On the two-year anniversary of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall provide to Parent a schedule setting forth a reconciliation of (i) the amounts included in respect of Taxes as “Current Liabilities” (and “Current Assets”) in the determination of the amount of Working Capital on the Final Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Statement and (ii) the amount of Taxes actually paid (and refunds actually received) by Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) to a Governmental Entity within such 2-year period in respect of the liabilities described in clause (i). If the amount described in clause (i) exceeds the amount described in clause (ii), Purchaser shall promptly pay Parent an amount in cash equal to such excess; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.5(d) shall relieve Parent and the Sellers from any obligation to indemnify the Purchaser Tax Indemnified Parties under Section 7.1. Any dispute regarding the schedule required to be

-75-

prepared by Purchaser or the amount payable, if any, by Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.5(d) shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne equally by Parent and the Sellers on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other hand.

7.6 Tax Contests. From and after Closing:

(a) If any Governmental Entity commences a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries (x) that, if pursued successfully by the applicable Governmental Entity, would reasonably be expected to serve as the basis for a claim for indemnification under Article VII or (y) for any Pre-Closing Period or any Straddle Period, then the party to this Agreement first receiving notice of such Tax Proceeding promptly shall provide written notice thereof to the other party or parties to this Agreement; provided, however, that the failure of such party to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the other party of any of its obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent that the other party is prejudiced by such failure. In the case of any such Tax Proceeding described in clause (x) of this Section 7.6(a), such notice shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for such claim for indemnification under Article VII and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any correspondence received from the Governmental Entity.

(b) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date (other than a Tax Proceeding described in Section 7.6(d)), Parent shall have the exclusive right to control the defense of such Tax Proceeding; provided, however, that (x) if the resolution of such Tax Proceeding could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof after the Closing) in any Post-Closing Period, Parent promptly shall provide written notice of such Tax Proceeding to Purchaser and promptly shall respond to any reasonable requests from Purchaser for information relating to such Tax Proceeding, and (y) Parent shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining the prior written consent of Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, if such settlement, compromise or abandonment could have a material adverse impact on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) in any Post-Closing Period.

(c) In the case of a Tax Proceeding of or with respect to any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any Straddle Period (other than a Tax Proceeding described in Section 7.6(d)), the Controlling Party shall have the right and obligation to control the defense, at its own expense, such Tax Proceeding; provided, however, that (i) the Controlling Party shall provide the Non-Controlling Party with a timely and reasonably detailed account of each stage of such Tax Proceeding, (ii) the Controlling Party shall consult with the Non-Controlling Party before taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Proceeding, (iii) the Controlling Party shall consult with the Non-Controlling Party and offer the Non-Controlling Party an opportunity to comment before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such Tax Proceeding, (iv) the Controlling Party shall defend such Tax Proceeding diligently and in good faith as if it were the only party in interest in connection with such Tax Proceeding, (v) the Non-Controlling Party shall be entitled to attend

-76-

any meetings or conferences with the relevant Governmental Entity with respect to such Tax Proceeding, and (vi) the Controlling Party shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining the prior written consent of the Non-Controlling Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For purposes of this Agreement, “Controlling Party” shall mean Parent if Parent and its Affiliates are reasonably expected to bear the greater Tax liability in connection with such Tax Proceeding, or Purchaser if Purchaser and its Affiliates are reasonably expected to bear the greater Tax liability in connection with such Tax Proceeding; and “Non-Controlling Party” means whichever of the Parent or Purchaser is not the Controlling Party with respect to such Tax Proceeding.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Parent shall have the exclusive right to control in all respects, and neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to participate in, any Tax Proceeding with respect to (i) any Tax Return of Parent or a member of the Parent Group; and (ii) any Tax Return of a consolidated, combined or unitary group that includes any member of the Parent Group (including any Combined Tax Return); provided that, if the resolution of such Tax Proceeding could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Company or any Subsidiary thereof after the Closing) in any Post-Closing Period, Parent promptly shall provide written notice of such Tax Proceeding to Purchaser and promptly shall respond to any reasonable requests from Purchaser inquiring as to the status of such Tax Proceeding.

7.7 Cooperation and Exchange of Information.

(a) Not more than sixty (60) days after the receipt of a request from Parent, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide to Parent a package of Tax information materials, including schedules and work papers, reasonably requested by Parent to enable Parent to prepare and file all Tax Returns required to be prepared and filed by it with respect to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries. Purchaser shall prepare such package completely and accurately, in good faith and in a manner consistent with Parent’s past practice.

(b) Each party to this Agreement shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide to the other party to this Agreement such cooperation, documentation and information as either of them reasonably may request in (i) filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, (ii) determining a liability for Taxes or an indemnity obligation under this Article VII or a right to refund of Taxes, or (iii) conducting any Tax Proceeding. Such cooperation and information shall include providing necessary powers of attorney, copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with all relevant portions of relevant accompanying schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities and relevant records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property and other information, which any such party may possess. Each party shall make its employees reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis at its cost to provide an explanation of any documents or information so provided.

(c) Each party shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, and all material records and other documents relating to Tax matters, of the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries for their respective Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing

-77-

Date until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations for the Tax periods to which the Tax Returns and other documents relate, or (ii) eight (8) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. Thereafter, the party holding such Tax Returns or other documents may dispose of them after offering the other party reasonable notice and opportunity to take possession of such Tax Returns and other documents at such other party’s own expense.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, access to and the retention of all Tax Returns and other documents and records relating to Tax matters with respect to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall be governed by this Article VII and the provisions of Article V shall not apply.

7.8 Tax Sharing Agreements. To the extent relating to the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, Parent shall terminate or cause to be terminated, on or before the Closing Date, all Tax sharing or other similar agreements or arrangements (other than this Agreement), if any, to which any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent or any of its Affiliates, including any member of the Parent Group, on the other hand, are parties, and neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries shall have any rights or obligations thereunder after the Closing.

The parties hereto agree to cooperate in good faith to structure any indemnification payment hereunder in a manner that minimizes any Taxes imposed on the payment or receipt of such indemnification payment.

7.10 Section 338 Elections. Purchaser shall not make, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) not to make, (a) any election under Section 338 of the Code (or any comparable election under state, local or foreign Law) with respect to the acquisition of any Transferred Company or any of its Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of Parent (which Parent may grant or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion), or (b) any election with respect to any Transferred Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any election pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3), which election would be effective on or prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that (x) Purchaser and Parent shall jointly make and file an election under Section 338(h)(10) (and any comparable elections under state, local or foreign Law) with respect to each U.S. Company (the “Section 338(h)(10) Elections”) and (y) Purchaser shall make, or shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) to make an election under Section 338(g) of the Code (and any comparable election under state or local law) with respect to each eligible Foreign Transferred Company (other than the Specified Chinese Entities) (the “Section 338(g) Elections”).

7.11 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any sales, use, transfer, documentary, stamp, recording, value added or similar Taxes

-78-

and related fees imposed on or payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any capital gain Taxes and withholding Taxes imposed on the Sale, which shall be borne by Parent and the Sellers) (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Parent and the Sellers, on the one hand, and fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser, on the other hand. The party responsible under applicable Law for filing the Tax Returns with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and promptly provide a copy of such Tax Return to the other party. Parent and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate to timely prepare and file any Tax Returns or other filings relating to such Transfer Taxes, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes.

7.12 Timing of Payments.

(each, a “Specified Chinese Entity,” and collectively, the “Specified Chinese Entities”) as an entity disregarded from its owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, such owner for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be a newly formed entity (and not a Transferred Company or a Subsidiary thereof) that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the “Specified Owner”) and the Specified Owner shall own for U.S. federal income tax purposes all of the equity interests in the Specified Chinese Entities from the Closing until the date that is two (2) days following the Closing Date. During the time period beginning immediately following the Closing and ending at the time the Check-the Box Elections for the Specified Chinese Entities become effective, Purchaser shall not take or permit to be taken any action or transaction by or with respect to the Specified Chinese Entities outside of the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, other than actions or transactions expressly contemplated by the China JV Buy-Out Agreements.

(b) The Parties intend that the Check-the-Box Elections described in Section 7.14(a) be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as tax-free liquidations pursuant to Sections 332 and 337 of the Code. Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the

-79-

All of (x) the provisions of Section 5.2 (Confidentiality), Section 5.6 (Public Announcements), this Section 9.3 (Effect of Termination), Section 9.4 (Reverse Termination Fee), Section 9.5 (Termination Fee) and Article XI (General Provisions), (y) the obligations of Parent and Purchaser to each pay one-half of any filing fees to any Governmental Entity pursuant to Section 5.3(f) (Efforts) in respect of filings made prior to the termination of this Agreement, and (z) the indemnification and reimbursement provisions of Section 5.19(b) (Financing) shall survive any termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “willful and intentional breach” shall mean a deliberate act or a deliberate failure to act, which act or deliberate failure to act constitutes in and of itself a material breach of this Agreement which was undertaken with the knowledge (actual or constructive) that such act or failure to act would be, or would reasonably be expected to cause, a material breach of this Agreement.

9.4 Reverse Termination Fee. (a) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent and the Sellers pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(2) (in the event of a breach or failure to perform by Purchaser) or Section 9.1(c) (failure to close), then Purchaser shall pay to Parent an amount (the “Reverse Termination Fee”) equal to $223,600,000 within two (2) Business Days of the date of such termination (it being understood that in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay the Reverse Termination Fee more than once). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the second sentence of Section 9.4(d) and Purchaser’s payment obligations under clause (y) of Section 9.3 (the “Regulatory Fee Payment Obligations”), (i) Parent’s receipt of the Reverse Termination Fee from Purchaser pursuant to this Section 9.4(a) (including its rights to enforce the Guarantees with respect thereto), any reimbursement and indemnification obligations of Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.19(b) (such reimbursement and indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 5.19(b), the “Purchaser Financing Cooperation Payment Obligations”) and Parent’s right to seek specific performance of this Agreement by Purchaser prior to termination of this Agreement, as provided for and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.11, shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Parent and the Sellers against the Purchaser Related Parties for any Loss relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Guarantees, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any breach of this Agreement by Purchaser, the termination of this Agreement or the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case, in any circumstance in which Parent is entitled to receive the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.4(a), and, upon payment of such amounts, none of the Purchaser Related Parties shall have any Liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Guarantees, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure.

(b) In connection with any Loss suffered as a result of any willful and intentional breach of this Agreement by Purchaser, other than in a circumstance in which Parent is entitled to receive the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.4(a), Parent and the Sellers agree that the maximum aggregate Liability of Purchaser shall be limited to an amount equal to the amount of the Reverse Termination Fee, the Regulatory Fee Payment Obligations and the Purchaser Financing Cooperation Payment Obligations, and in no event shall Parent and the Sellers be entitled to seek or obtain any recovery or judgment in excess of such amount.

(c) In no event shall Parent or the Sellers be entitled to seek or obtain any recovery or judgment against any of the Purchaser Related Parties or any of their respective assets in excess of (i) the amount of the Reverse Termination Fee (plus, in the case the Reverse Termination Fee is due and payable and is not timely paid, the amounts described in the second sentence of Section 9.4(d)), (ii) the Purchaser Financing Cooperation Payment Obligations and (iii) the Regulatory Fee Payment Obligations, and, except as provided in Section 9.4(b), in no event shall Parent or the Sellers be entitled to seek or obtain any other damages of any kind against any Purchaser Related Party for, or with respect to, this Agreement or the Guarantees or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including any breach by Purchaser), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure; provided, however, this Section 9.4(c) shall not limit the right of the parties hereto to seek specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, Section 11.11 prior to the termination of this Agreement; and provided, further, in

-84-

no event will Parent and the Sellers be entitled to both (x) the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee and (y) the grant of specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, Section 11.11, which grant results in the consummation of the Closing as contemplated by this Agreement. In light of the difficulty of accurately determining actual damages with respect to the foregoing, upon any such termination of this Agreement in any circumstance in which the Reverse Termination Fee is payable, the payment of (A) the Reverse Termination Fee (plus, in the case the Reverse Termination Fee is not timely paid, the amounts described in the second sentence of Section 9.4(d)) pursuant to Section 9.4(a), constitutes a reasonable estimate of the monetary damages that will be suffered by Parent and the Sellers by reason of breach or termination of this Agreement or the Guarantees, (B) the Purchaser Financing Cooperation Payment Obligations, and (C) the Regulatory Fee Payment Obligations, if applicable, shall be in full and complete satisfaction of any and all monetary damages of Parent and the Sellers arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the Guarantees, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including any breach by Purchaser), the termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure; provided, however, this Section 9.4 shall not limit the right of the parties hereto to seek specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to, and subject to the limitations in, Section 11.11 prior to the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent and the Sellers (and their respective stockholders, partners, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents) hereby waive any and all rights and claims against any Purchaser Related Party (other than (I) Purchaser and (II) the Guarantors solely with respect to their respective obligations under the Guarantees) in connection with this Agreement or the Debt Financing Commitment, whether at Law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not in any way limit or restrict Parent’s and the Sellers’ right to seek specific performance as set forth in Section 11.11 (subject to the limitations set forth therein) prior to any valid termination of this Agreement.

(d) Each party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 9.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, the other parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if Purchaser fails promptly to pay the amounts due pursuant to Section 9.4(a), and, in order to obtain such payments, Parent or the Sellers commence a suit that results in a judgment against Purchaser for the amounts set forth in Section 9.4(a) or any portion thereof, Purchaser will pay to Parent, from the date such payment was required to be made under this Agreement, the Interest Rate on the amounts set forth in this Section 9.4. The parties acknowledge that the Reverse Termination Fee shall not constitute a penalty but is liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent and the Sellers in the circumstances in which the Reverse Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Sale, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

9.5 Termination Fee. If this Agreement is terminated by Purchaser pursuant to Section 9.1(d) (failure to deliver the Acceptance Notice), then Parent shall pay to Purchaser an amount (the “Termination Fee”) equal to $223,600,000 within two (2) Business Days of the date

-85-

of such termination (it being understood that in no event shall Parent be required to pay the Termination Fee more than once).

9.6 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, either Parent or a Seller or Purchaser may (a) extend the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Person, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party granting such extension or waiver.

-88-

10.4 Indemnification Procedures. (a) A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”), shall promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under such agreement (such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article X except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, it being agreed that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must describe in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the alleged breach and be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 10.1 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.3(a), the Indemnifying Party will be entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party); provided that the Indemnifying Party shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense and control of any Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 10.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense, but the Indemnifying Party may nonetheless participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel, contractors and consultants of recognized standing and competence and shall use commercially reasonable efforts in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim. Purchaser or Parent and the Sellers, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates and representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing non-privileged books and records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, in its reasonable discretion without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, that (x) such settlement or judgment does not involve any injunctive relief or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party and (y) the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts in such settlement or judgment, (ii) not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any term, restriction or condition that would apply to or adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (iii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete and unconditional release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim. No Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).

-89-

(c) If the Indemnified Party receives any payment from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 10.2 or 10.3 and the Indemnified Party is entitled to recover all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on facts, events and circumstances giving rise to the right of indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment.

10.5 Exclusive Remedy and Release. Except with respect to, (i) the Ancillary Agreements (other than the Foreign Acquisition Agreements), (ii) the matters covered by Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 and 2.9, (iii) Section 11.11 and (iv) any matter relating to Taxes (which shall be governed exclusively by Article VII and Section 5.17(b)), Purchaser, Parent and the Sellers acknowledge and agree that, following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Sections 10.2 and 10.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Parent and the Sellers and Purchaser, respectively, for any Losses (including any Losses from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) (but excluding claims for fraud) that each party may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with the Sale, including any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by any party, or any failure by any party to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement that, by its terms, was to have been performed, or complied with, under this Agreement and the Foreign Acquisition Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission they may otherwise have or to which they may become entitled.

10.6 Additional Indemnification Provisions. With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in this Agreement, all Losses shall be net of (i) any third-party insurance and indemnity proceeds that have been recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, less the amount of out-of-pocket costs incurred to obtain such proceeds (it being agreed that if third-party insurance or indemnification proceeds in respect of such facts are recovered by the Indemnified Party subsequent to the Indemnifying Party’s making of an indemnification payment in satisfaction of its applicable indemnification obligation, such proceeds, less the amount of out-of-pocket costs incurred to obtain such proceeds, shall be promptly remitted to the Indemnifying Party to the extent of the indemnification payment made), and (ii) any Net Tax Benefits. The Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and indemnity provisions covering such Loss to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder. Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article X, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights which the Indemnified Party may have under any third-party insurance policies with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall, to the extent permitted under such insurance policies, assign any such rights to the Indemnifying Party. From and after the Closing Date, no member of the Parent Group shall have any right of contribution or indemnification against any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries for any amounts paid to any Purchaser Indemnified Party as a result of any claim for indemnification under this Agreement or any claim arising from or relating to a breach by Parent, Sellers or, prior to the Closing, any of the Transferred Companies or their respective Subsidiaries of any

-90-

representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement.

10.7 Limitation of Liability. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party have liability to any Indemnified Party for any consequential, special, incidental (other than arising by reason of or resulting from efforts to mitigate Losses), indirect or punitive damages, except for any such damages to the extent paid to a third party, including a Governmental Entity.

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

11.8 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no party to this Agreement may directly or indirectly assign any or all of its rights or delegate any or all of its obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of each other party to this Agreement, except that (i) Parent may assign its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of Parent, (ii) prior to the Closing, Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement to one or more Affiliates of Purchaser, and (iii) Purchaser may collaterally assign this Agreement to any Financing Source or any other party providing bona fide debt financing to Purchaser or its Subsidiaries; provided that, in each case of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), any such assignment shall not impede or delay in any respect the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or relieve Parent or Purchaser of its Liabilities or obligations hereunder. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 11.8 shall be void.

11.9 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought. Either party to this Agreement may, only by an instrument in writing, waive compliance by the other parties to this Agreement with any term or provision of this Agreement on the part of such other parties to this Agreement to be performed or complied with. The waiver by any party to this Agreement of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach.

-95-

11.10 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties intend that the remedies and limitations set forth in this Agreement (including Section 9.3, Section 9.4, the last sentence of Section 11.3(b), the first, second, third and fourth sentences of Section 11.3(c), Section 11.5 and Section 11.11) shall be construed as an integral provision of this Agreement and that such remedies and limitations shall not be severable in any manner that increases (i) the Liability of any party (or the Liability of any Purchaser Related Party) or (ii) the obligations hereunder or under the Guarantees.

11.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement or any Foreign Acquisition Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Foreign Acquisition Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, it is explicitly agreed that Parent and the Sellers shall not be entitled to seek or obtain any injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief requiring Purchaser to cause the Equity Financing to be funded, except that Parent and the Sellers may seek specific performance of Purchaser’s obligation to cause the Equity Financing to be funded to fund the Purchase Price and of Purchaser’s obligation to consummate the Closing if and only in the event that (i) all conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 have been satisfied in full (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied or waived at the Closing) at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of the Equity Financing to be funded, (ii) the Debt Financing (or, if Alternative Financing is being used in accordance with Section 5.19(a), pursuant to the commitments with respect thereto) has been funded or will be funded (or, if such Debt Financing has been funded into escrow, such funds have been or will be released from escrow) at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing, and (iii) Parent and the Sellers have irrevocably confirmed that if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and the Debt Financing are funded, then the Closing pursuant to Article II will occur. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that Parent and the Sellers shall be entitled to specific performance to enforce Section 5.19. Subject to the foregoing, each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief permitted by this Agreement on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in

-96-

accordance with this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction. The parties acknowledge and agree that the limitations on remedies of the parties following termination of this Agreement set forth in Section 9.4 shall not limit the right of Parent or the Sellers to obtain specific performance pursuant to, and subject to the limitations of, this Section 11.11.

11.12 No Admission. Nothing herein shall be deemed an admission by Parent or any of its respective Affiliates, in any Action or proceeding by or on behalf of a third party, that such third party is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any contract.

11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic method shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

For the attention of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxx

Paris, on July 25, 2012

STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

Dear Xx. Xxxx:

Following our recent discussions in relation to the contemplated acquisition of all of the capital stock or other equity interests of each company listed on Schedule 1 hereto (each, a “Company” and, collectively, the “Companies”) and owned by United Technologies Corporation (the “Seller”) and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries, we hereby make the following final, irrevocable and binding offer (the “Offer”), which the Seller may in its sole discretion elect to accept in accordance with the procedures described below, and whereby the undersigned (the “Purchaser”, “we” and “us”) agrees, in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Global Purchase Agreement”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among the Seller, the Purchaser and the other parties thereto attached hereto as Schedule 2, to acquire the capital stock and other equity interests of each of the Companies owned, directly or indirectly, by the Seller, as set forth opposite each Company’s name in Section 3.1 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “French Shares”), from the Seller and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries for an aggregate purchase price equal to $464,800,000 (the “Transaction”).

Capitalized terms used in this letter (this “Letter”) shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meanings ascribed to them in the Global Purchase Agreement.

- 1 -

1.	ACCEPTANCE OF THE OFFER

(a)

If the Seller wishes to accept our Offer, the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such acceptance through the delivery, on or prior to the Expiry Date (as such term is defined below in Clause 2(a)), of written notice in the form attached hereto as Schedule 3 (an “Acceptance Notice”) specifying that the Seller accepts the Offer and that the Global Purchase Agreement shall become effective as to the French Shares (the date of delivery of such written notice, the “Acceptance Date”).

(b)	We hereby irrevocably undertake not to withdraw, revoke, modify or qualify our Offer in any respect whatsoever prior to the Expiry Date.

2.	DURATION OF THE OFFER

(a)	Our Offer will enter into force on the date of countersignature of this Letter by the Seller and will remain valid until the earlier of:

(i)

5:00 p.m., Paris time, on the fifth Business Day after the date on which the final written opinion regarding the Transaction has been received from the works’ council (Comité d’entreprise) of each Company (each, a “Works’ Council” and, collectively, the “Works’ Councils”); and

(ii)

the date of termination of the Global Purchase Agreement, if terminated prior to the Closing in accordance with its terms,

(as such date may be extended by agreement between the Seller and the Purchaser, the “Expiry Date”).

(b)	If the Offer has not been accepted by the Seller prior to the Expiry Date in compliance with the provisions hereof, the Offer will automatically terminate as at the Expiry Date, unless the parties mutually agree to postpone such Expiry Date to a later date.

3.	INFORMATION AND CONSULTATION OF THE WORKS’ COUNCILS

(a)

The Seller undertakes to ensure that the process of informing and consulting with each Works’ Council will be completed as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof. The Seller further undertakes to keep us regularly informed of the status of such information and consultation process and to immediately provide us with a true and certified copy of the final opinion delivered by each Works’ Council.

(b)

The Purchaser agrees to cooperate, as may be required, with the Seller and the Companies, including (subject to applicable confidentiality obligations and other legal constraints) by providing any documents and information relating to the Purchaser that may be reasonably requested by any Works’ Council in connection with the consultation process, to the extent such documents and information are reasonably available. Purchaser acknowledges that representatives of Purchaser and its Affiliates may be invited to attend or otherwise participate in proceedings of the Works’ Councils and, if so requested, will consider such participation in good faith.

- 2 -

(c)

The Seller and the Purchaser shall each use reasonable best efforts to refrain from, and to procure that their respective Subsidiaries refrain from, doing anything that is reasonably likely to prejudice the expeditious completion of the consultation process and delivery of the opinion of each Works’ Council.

4.	EXCLUSIVITY PERIOD

(a)

Except as contemplated by the Dijon Agreements, as from the date hereof and until the earliest of (i) the Acceptance Date, (ii) the termination of the Global Purchase Agreement and (iii) the Closing under the Global Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall not, and shall procure that no Affiliate of the Seller shall, directly or indirectly, including through their advisors, initiate or engage in any discussions or negotiations, or enter into any contract, with any Person other the Purchaser, or intentionally solicit or encourage any Person, to acquire all or part of the share capital of any Company or any Subsidiaries thereof and/or all or part of the assets of such entities, or to proceed with the merger, spin-off, contribution, business combination, recapitalization, or any similar transaction involving any Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.	GOVERNING LAW

(a)

This Letter shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts executed and to be performed wholly within such State and without reference to the choice-of-law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of a different jurisdiction.

(b)

Each party to this Letter irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the State of New York in any Action arising out of or relating to this Letter, and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such Action may be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court. Each party to this Letter hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action. The parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that final and unappealable judgment against any of them in any Action contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

We look forward to working together towards the closing of the Transaction.

Very truly yours,
