CONVERSION OF SHARES

Section 3.1 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party to this Agreement or any holder of the capital stock of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub or Parent:

(a) SpinCo Capital Stock and Merger Sub Common Stock.

(i) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii)) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(iv) and, if applicable, Section 3.1(c), with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.2(e) (the “Merger Consideration”).

(ii) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock held by SpinCo as treasury stock or by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist and no stock or other consideration shall be issued or delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(iii) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, when converted in accordance with this Section 3.1, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i) and any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(d).

-27-

(iv) The Exchange Ratio and any other similarly dependent items shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect the effect of any stock split, split-up, reverse stock split, stock dividend or distribution of Parent Common Stock or SpinCo Common Stock, or securities convertible into any such securities, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock or SpinCo Common Stock having a record date occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time or the Distribution Time (as applicable), other than any changes in connection with the Reorganization and the Distribution; provided, that, nothing in this Section 3.1(a)(iv) shall be construed to permit the Company, SpinCo or Parent to take or to permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement (provided, that, in the case of SpinCo Common Stock, to the extent contemplated in the Separation and Distribution Agreement (including the Separation or in connection with the Spin-Off, Exchange Offer or Clean-Up Spin-Off), the Company shall be entitled to cause the number of outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock to be an amount that it determines in its sole and absolute discretion).

(v) At the Effective Time, all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub (“Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Parent Common Stock. Each share of Parent Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

(i) If the percentage of outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock to be received in the Merger by former holders of SpinCo Common Stock with respect to Qualified SpinCo Common Stock (the “Applicable Percentage”) would be less than 50.1% of all shares of the stock of Parent outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Merger (determined (i) after giving effect to the issuance of all shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and (ii) without regard to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.1(c)(i)) (the “Threshold Percentage”), then the Exchange Ratio shall be increased to the minimum Exchange Ratio as shall be necessary in order for the number of shares of Parent Common Stock to be received in the Merger by former holders of SpinCo Common Stock with respect to Qualified SpinCo Common Stock to equal the Threshold Percentage. For purposes of determining the outstanding stock of Parent for purposes of the prior sentence, such stock shall

-28-

include any (A) Parent Common Stock, (B) instruments that are treated as stock for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and (C) stock that may be issued after the consummation of the Merger, pursuant to the exercise or settlement of an option or other contract acquired or entered into before the Merger that may be regarded as having been acquired or entered into before the Merger as part of a “plan” or “series of related transactions” of which the Distribution is a part within the meaning of Section 355(e) of the Code (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account the safe harbors under Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(d)). For purposes of the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the following shall not be treated as outstanding stock of Parent: (I) any Parent LTI Award outstanding at the Effective Time, that was either (1) at the time of grant (and any subsequent transfer or modification), not in-the-money or otherwise substantially certain to be exercised or (2) issued in exchange for any Company LTI Award (for all purposes as used herein, as defined in the Employee Matters Agreement) and (II) any stock that may be issued after the Effective Time pursuant to the exercise or settlement of any Parent LTI Award that (1) was, on or prior to the Effective Time, a Parent LTI Award and was, at the time of grant (and any subsequent transfer or modification), not in-the-money or otherwise substantially certain to be exercised, and (x) the stock issued is issued in a transaction to which Section 83 or 421(a) or (b) of the Code applies, (y) is not excessive by reference to the services performed, and (z) is not issued to a person who is (or is part of coordinating group, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(h)(4), which is) a controlling shareholder, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(h)(3), or a ten-percent shareholder, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.355-7(h)(14) (clauses (x), (y) and (z), the “Additional Requirements”), or (2) received in exchange for any Company LTI Award, determined without regard to any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.01(c)(i).

(ii) If any increase in the Exchange Ratio pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) is required solely by reason of any actions taken by the Company or any of its Affiliates (other than any such actions required or expressly contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the Separation Steps Plan)), then the amount of the SpinCo Payment distributed pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of $40.12 multiplied by the number of additional shares of Parent Common Stock required to be issued pursuant to the Exchange Ratio adjustment set forth in Section 3.1(c)(i); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any past or future repurchases of Company stock by the Company or any of its Affiliates shall, for purposes of this Section 3.1(c)(ii), be considered and be deemed to be actions taken by the Company or any of its Affiliates that are not required or expressly contemplated by the Transaction Documents (including the Separation Steps Plan).

(iii) The determination as to whether the amount of Parent Common Stock to be received in the Merger by former holders of SpinCo Common Stock with respect to Qualified SpinCo Common Stock meets the Threshold Percentage shall be made jointly by Parent and Company acting reasonably and in good faith and in consultation with their outside legal counsel and tax advisors. In furtherance thereof, (A) during the Interim Period, Parent and the Company shall promptly notify the other upon it becoming aware of any action or occurrence that would reasonably be expected to

-29-

result in the need for an adjustment to the Exchange Ratio pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) and (B) no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the expected Closing Date, Parent and the Company shall (1) provide the other with any information that is reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the other Party with respect to the calculation of the Applicable Percentage and (2) promptly thereafter, if such Party determines that the Threshold Percentage is not met, notify the other Party thereof (together with its calculation of the Applicable Percentage and proposed adjustment required to the Exchange Ratio and the SpinCo Payment (if any), including reasonable supporting detail for any such calculations). Parent and the Company shall consider and discuss in good faith any adjustment to the Exchange Ratio or the SpinCo Payment proposed by the other Party and seek to determine the final amounts thereof no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

Section 3.2 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall hold, for the account of the relevant SpinCo stockholders, book-entry shares representing all of the outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock distributed or exchanged, as applicable, in the Distribution.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a nationally recognized commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Company to act as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the benefit of the holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock whose shares of SpinCo Common Stock are exchanged in accordance with this Section 3.2(b). At or substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) promptly after the Effective Time, book-entry shares representing the Merger Consideration issuable to holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) (such book-entry shares of Parent Common Stock, together with any cash received by the Exchange Agent in respect of dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.2(d) and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(e), the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall, following the Effective Time, pursuant to irrevocable instructions from Parent, deliver the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund. The cash portion, if any, of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by Parent; provided that (i) no such investment of or losses thereon shall relieve Parent from making or causing to be made the payments required by this Section 3.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement, or affect the amount payable in respect of the shares of SpinCo Common Stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, (ii) to the extent the Exchange Fund is insufficient at any time to make such payments, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent in the amount of any such deficiency and (iii) no such investment shall have maturities that would reasonably be expected to prevent or delay the payments to be made pursuant to this Section 3.2. Any interest or other income from such investments shall be paid to and become the property of Parent. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this Section 3.2(b). No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with the Exchange Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to effect the applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”).

-30-

(c) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, from the Exchange Fund, the shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of SpinCo Common Stock have been converted pursuant to the Merger, which shares shall, for the sake of clarity, be delivered to the same Persons who received shares of SpinCo Common Stock in the Distribution (in respect of such shares). Each holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be entitled to receive in respect of such shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by such Person a book-entry authorization representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) (and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, as contemplated by Section 3.2(e), and any dividends or distributions and other amounts pursuant to Section 3.2(d)). The Exchange Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to Parent Common Stock held by it from time to time hereunder or under the Agent Agreement.

(d) Distributions After the Effective Time. Subject to the following sentence, no dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Common Stock shall be paid with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock that are not able to be delivered by the Exchange Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such delivery or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following the delivery of any such previously undelivered shares of Parent Common Stock, there shall be paid to the record holder of such shares of Parent Common Stock, without interest, (i) at the time of delivery, the amount of cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(e), (ii) at the time of delivery, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and (iii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to the distribution of such whole shares of Parent Common Stock and a payment date subsequent to the distribution of such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(e) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock or book-entry credit of the same shall be issued on conversion of SpinCo Common Stock, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote, or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. All fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that a holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger shall be aggregated by the Exchange Agent. The Exchange Agent shall cause the whole shares obtained thereby to be sold on behalf of such holders that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger in the open market (or otherwise as reasonably directed by Parent), in each case at then-prevailing market prices and in no case later than ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Time. The Exchange Agent shall make available the net proceeds thereof, subject to the deduction of the amount of any withholding Taxes as contemplated in Section 3.2(j) and brokerage charges, commissions and conveyance and similar Taxes, to the holders of SpinCo Common Stock that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger on a pro rata basis based on such fractional interest, without interest, as soon as practicable thereafter.

-31-

(f) No Further Ownership Rights in SpinCo Common Stock. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued in respect of shares of SpinCo Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2 (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 3.2(d) or Section 3.2(e)) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of SpinCo Common Stock.

(g) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund made available to the Exchange Agent that remains undistributed to the former holders of SpinCo Common Stock on the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, and any former holders of SpinCo Common Stock who have not received shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent for the Merger Consideration to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(d) (subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law).

(h) No Liability. Neither the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Sub, the Exchange Agent nor any other Person shall be liable to any holder of SpinCo Common Stock or any holder of shares of Company Common Stock for shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto or with respect to SpinCo Common Stock) or cash properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(i) Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of SpinCo shall be closed and no transfer shall be made of any shares of capital stock of SpinCo that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(j) Tax Withholding. Parent, the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of SpinCo Common Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

Section 3.3 Appraisal Rights(a) . In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to the holders of SpinCo Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

-86-

(i) the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to, (a) prior to the Distribution, incur indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Above Basis Amount containing terms reasonably satisfactory to the Company (the “Company Exchange Debt”); (b) cause SpinCo to distribute to the Company indebtedness of SpinCo containing terms (including as to pricing, fees and other economic terms) consistent with those described in paragraph (l) below and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Company, SpinCo and Parent (the “SpinCo Exchange Debt”); and (c) cause the Debt Exchange to be consummated prior to or substantially concurrently with the Distribution in a process to be jointly managed by the Company and Parent in good faith; provided, that the terms of the Debt Exchange must not result in any materially adverse Tax consequences to the Company and its Subsidiaries, including as to the Tax-Free Status of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (as determined by the Company in good faith);

(iii) (a) the Company and Parent shall jointly manage the negotiations in connection with the issuance of the SpinCo Exchange Debt and the selection of investment banking advisors with respect thereto; and (b) the financial, legal, accounting and other advisors for the Company, Parent and SpinCo shall be directed to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all other commercially reasonable things necessary to facilitate the Debt Exchange as reasonably directed by the Company and Parent in good faith;

(vii) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to increase the Basis Amount (without taking into account the second proviso contained in the definition thereof), provided, that the Company shall not be required to take any action that could (a) prevent or materially delay the Separation, the Distribution or the Merger (or prevent or materially delay the satisfaction of any condition to any of the foregoing) or (b) result in any material Tax or unreimbursed cost to the Company which Tax or cost would not otherwise be incurred.

Section 7.7 Access to Information. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent shall, and shall cause the Parent Subsidiaries, on the other hand, to afford to the other Party and to its respective Representatives, reasonable access, during normal business hours and subject to bona fide policies and procedures established by the other Party (including in response to COVID-19), during the Interim Period, in such manner as to not interfere with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ or the SpinCo Business’s (as applicable) normal operations, the properties, the SpinCo Business Records and appropriate senior-level employees of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries or the Company and its Subsidiaries (related to the SpinCo Business), including the SpinCo Entities (as applicable), as such Party and its Representatives may reasonably request for the purposes of furthering the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or integration planning and preparing for the operation of Parent and the Surviving Corporation post-Closing; provided that (a) such investigation shall only be upon reasonable notice and at the sole cost and expense of the investigating Party; (b) no Party or its Representatives shall be permitted to perform any environmental testing or sampling, including sampling of soil, groundwater, surface water, building materials, or air or wastewater emissions without the prior written consent of the other applicable Party; (c) no Party or its Representatives shall be entitled to access any employee-related or employee benefit-related files or records of another Party, including individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories, workers compensation records, drug testing results, or other sensitive personal information; and (d) that nothing in this Agreement shall require any Party to permit any inspection or disclose any

-88-

information to any other Party that (i) would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of such Party’s business or result in damage to property (other than immaterial damage), except with such other Party’s prior written consent (which may be withheld or denied at its sole discretion), (ii) would cause a violation of any Law, privacy policy or any confidentiality obligations and similar restrictions that may be applicable to such information, or (iii) would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other disclosure privilege or protection to such Party (provided that the Party that would otherwise be required to disclose information to the other shall take any and all reasonable action necessary to permit such disclosure without such loss of privilege or violation of agreement, policy, Law or other restriction, including through the use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consent or waiver to the disclosure of such information from any third party and through the implementation of appropriate and mutually agreeable “clean room” or other similar procedures designed to limit any such adverse effect of sharing such information by each Party). Parent and the Company may, as it deems advisable, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive information as “clean team” or “outside counsel only” material or with similar restrictions. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.7 to the contrary (but without limiting the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, including Section 7.4), the Company and SpinCo shall not be required to provide access to, or make any disclosure with respect to, any information of or to the extent relating to the Company, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective businesses, other than information to the extent relating to the SpinCo Business, the SpinCo Entities, the SpinCo Business Assets or the SpinCo Liabilities. The Parties hereby agree that, notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.7 to the contrary, the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement and, to the extent applicable, the procedures set forth on Section 7.7 of the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule shall apply to all information and material furnished by any Party or its Representatives thereunder and hereunder. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. All requests for such access to any Party shall be made to such Party or its designated Representative.

Section 7.8 D&O Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) For a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, Parent agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer or employee of any SpinCo Entity (the “Indemnified Parties”) against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to any matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including the SpinCo Entities), as the case may be, would have been permitted under the Organizational Documents of SpinCo as in effect on the date hereof to indemnify such Person (including promptly advancing expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under such Organizational Documents, provided that such Person delivers an undertaking to Parent in advance agreeing to return any such funds to which a court of competent jurisdiction has determined in a final, nonappealable judgment that such Person is not entitled to indemnification). Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall cause the SpinCo Entities (i) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in their respective Organizational Documents concerning the indemnification and exculpation (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the SpinCo Entities’ respective former and

-89-

current officers, directors or employees that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the Organizational Documents of the Company as of the date hereof and (ii) not to amend, repeal, waive or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by applicable Law.

(b) The Company may at its option and sole expense procure a prepaid, non-cancelable six (6)-year “tail” policy commencing on the Closing Date covering the Indemnified Parties with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.8 shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parent and SpinCo and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each present and former director, officer and employee of any SpinCo Entity and his or her heirs and representatives. In the event that Parent or SpinCo or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or SpinCo, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.8.

Section 7.9 No Solicitation.

(a) Parent shall immediately cease, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and shall direct and use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to immediately cease, any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than the Company or its Affiliates) that may be ongoing with respect to a Competing Proposal, or any proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, and shall promptly request that each such Person return or destroy any confidential information that has been provided in any such discussions or negotiations. From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX, Parent shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and shall direct and use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any Competing Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer which would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, or (ii) engage in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any nonpublic information relating to Parent or any Parent Subsidiary in connection with, any Competing Proposal (or any inquiry, proposal or offer which would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal); provided, however, that (x) Parent may direct any Person that submits any Competing Proposal or makes any inquiry, proposal or offer which would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal (in each case, not involving, following or resulting from any breach of this Section 7.9) to the provisions of this Section 7.9 and (y) if, prior to obtaining the Parent Shareholder Approval and following the receipt of a bona fide written Competing Proposal made after the date hereof that the Parent Board determines in good faith (after receiving advice of its financial advisor and of its outside legal counsel) is or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that was not, directly or indirectly, solicited, initiated, encouraged or facilitated by the breach (other than a de minimis breach) of this Section 7.9(a), the Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with outside legal counsel, that a failure to take action with respect to such

-90-

Competing Proposal would more likely than not be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to Parent and its shareholders in their capacity as directors of Parent under applicable Law, Parent may, in response to such Competing Proposal and subject to Section 7.9(d), (A) furnish information with respect to Parent, its Subsidiaries and Affiliates to the Person making such Competing Proposal pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (B) engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person regarding such Competing Proposal; provided, that Parent may only take the actions described in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) if it has provided the Company and SpinCo with notice of its intent to take such action at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to initially taking the first of any such actions. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 7.9, the Parent Board shall not, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, (1) adopt, approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve, endorse or recommend, any Competing Proposal; (2) withdraw, change, amend, modify or qualify, or publicly propose to withdraw, change, amend, modify or qualify, in a manner adverse to the Company, the Parent Board Recommendation, (3) if a Competing Proposal has been publicly announced, fail to publicly make a statement that the Company recommends against any such Competing Proposal within ten (10) Business Days after the initial request in writing by the Company following such public announcement to do so, or, if requested by the Company in writing, after any material amendment, revision or change to the terms of any such previously publicly disclosed Competing Proposal have been made public (or subsequently withdraw, change, amend, modify or qualify (or publicly propose to do so), in a manner adverse to the Company, such recommendation against such Competing Proposal), (4) fail to include the Parent Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, (5) approve or authorize, or cause or permit Parent or any Parent Subsidiary to enter into, any merger agreement, acquisition agreement, reorganization agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or similar agreement or document relating to, or providing for, any Competing Proposal (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement), or (6) commit or agree to do any of the foregoing (any act described in clauses (1), (2), (3),(4) or (6) (to the extent relating to clauses (1), (2), (3) or (4)), a “Parent Adverse Recommendation Change”).

(b) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 7.9, Parent shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries not to, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, (i) take any action to make the provisions of any takeover statute inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Competing Proposal; or (ii) terminate, amend in a manner adverse to the Company, release, modify or grant any permission, waiver or release under, any standstill or similar agreement entered into by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of or in contemplation of a Competing Proposal (other than if the Parent Board determines, in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take any of such actions would more likely than not be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to Parent and its shareholders in their capacity as directors of Parent under applicable Law).

-91-

(c) In addition to the provisions of Section 7.9(a) and Section 7.9(b), prior to receipt of the Parent Shareholder Approval, the Parent Board may (I) in response to any bona fide written Competing Proposal that was not solicited, initiated or knowingly encouraged in violation of Section 7.9(a), effect a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change or (II) in response to an Intervening Event, effect a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change, in the case of each of clauses (I) and (II), if and only if (i) (A) in the case of a Competing Proposal, the Parent Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with Parent’s outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or (B) in the case of an Intervening Event, if the Parent Board determines in good faith that an Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing; (ii) the Parent Board determines in good faith, after consultation with Parent’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would more likely than not be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to Parent and its shareholders in their capacity as directors of Parent under applicable Law; (iii) the Parent Board provides the Company four (4) Business Days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action (an “Alternative Notice”), which notice shall include the information with respect to such Competing Proposal that is specified in Section 7.9(d) as well as a copy of the acquisition agreement relating to such Competing Proposal (if any), or the material facts and circumstances relating to any such Intervening Event, as applicable; (iv) during the four (4) Business Days following such written notice (the “Negotiation Period”), if requested by the Company, Parent shall have negotiated (and directed its Representatives to negotiate) in good faith with the Company regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by the Company in response to such Competing Proposal or Intervening Event; and (v) at the end of the four (4) Business Day period described in the foregoing clause (iv), the Parent Board concludes in good faith, (A) after consultation with Parent’s outside legal counsel and financial advisor (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement to which the Company and SpinCo have agreed in writing), that any Competing Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal or (B) after consultation with Parent’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Intervening Event would more likely than not be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to Parent and its shareholders in their capacity as directors of Parent under applicable Law. Any material amendment or material modification to any Competing Proposal (including any amendment or modification to the amount, form or mix of consideration the shareholders of Parent would receive as a result of the Superior Proposal) or to the facts and circumstances relating to any Intervening Event shall require a new Alternative Notice and a new Negotiation Period commencing from the date of receipt of such new Alternative Notice; provided, that with respect to each subsequent written notice related to a material amendment or modification, references to the four (4) Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to two (2) Business Days.

(d) Without limiting the obligations set forth in Section 7.9(a) and Section 7.9(c), Parent shall promptly, and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours, after it receives (i) any Competing Proposal or written indication by any Person that is reasonably likely to lead to a Competing Proposal, (ii) any request for non-public information relating to Parent or its Subsidiaries relating to, or from any Person that would reasonably be expected to make, a Competing Proposal (other than requests for information in the ordinary course of business and unrelated to a Competing Proposal) or (iii) any inquiry or request for discussions or negotiations regarding any Competing Proposal, notify the Company (which notice, if provided orally, shall be confirmed in writing) of any of the foregoing occurrences, the identity of the Person making such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal and a copy of such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal (or where no such copy is available, a reasonably detailed description of the material terms of such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal). Parent shall keep the

-92-

Company reasonably informed on a prompt basis (and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours) after the occurrence of any material changes, developments, discussions or negotiations) of the status of any such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal (including the any material changes to the terms and conditions thereof and of any other material modification thereto), and any other material developments, discussions and negotiations with respect thereto (which shall remain subject to the other obligations of Parent hereunder), including promptly furnishing copies of any written inquiries, material correspondence and draft documentation and definitive agreements, and written summaries of any other material oral inquiries or discussions. Parent agrees that, subject to applicable restrictions under applicable Law, it shall, prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to any third parties, provide to the Company any non-public information concerning Parent or its Subsidiaries that Parent provides to any third party in connection with any Competing Proposal which was not previously provided to the Company and SpinCo.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent or the Parent Board from taking and disclosing to its shareholders a position that Parent reasonably and in good faith determines requires disclosure pursuant to the Exchange Act (including any “stop, look and listen” communication pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f)) or the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq, and such disclosure shall not be deemed a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change so long as such disclosure includes the Parent Board Recommendation, without alternation, modification or qualification thereof, or would not otherwise constitute a Parent Adverse Recommendation Change.

(f) Any failure of Parent’s Subsidiaries or their Representatives to comply with any provisions of this Section 7.9 applicable thereto (as if such Subsidiaries or Representatives were directly subject to this Section 7.9) shall be deemed a breach of this Section 7.9 by Parent.

(g) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Competing Proposal” means, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any proposal or offer from a third party relating to (A) a merger, scheme of arrangement, reorganization, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or other similar transaction involving Parent; (B) the acquisition (whether by merger, scheme of arrangement, consolidation, sale of assets, equity investment, joint venture or otherwise) by any Person of twenty percent (20%) or more of the consolidated assets of Parent and the Parent Subsidiaries, as determined on a fair-market-value basis; (C) the purchase or acquisition after the date hereof, directly or indirectly, by any Person of twenty percent (20%) or more of the issued and outstanding shares of the Parent Common Stock or of any other class or type of Interests in Parent; (D) any purchase, acquisition, tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning twenty percent (20%) or more of the shares of Parent Common Stock or of any other class or type of Interests of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; or (E) any combination of the foregoing.

-93-

(ii) “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide written Competing Proposal (except the references therein to “20%” shall be replaced by “50%”) made by a third party which was not solicited by Parent or any of its Representatives in violation of Section 7.9(a) and which, in the good faith judgment of the Parent Board after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel, taking into account the various legal, financial and regulatory aspects of the Competing Proposal, (A) if accepted, is reasonably likely to be consummated and (B) if consummated, would result in a transaction that is more favorable to Parent’s shareholders from a financial point of view than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby (after giving effect to all adjustments or modifications to the terms thereof which may be agreed in writing to be made by the Company and SpinCo pursuant to Section 7.9(c)).

Section 7.10 Exclusivity. The Company shall immediately cease, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to immediately cease, any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than Parent or its Affiliates) that may be ongoing with respect to a SpinCo Proposal, or any inquiry, proposal or offer that would reasonably be expected to lead to a SpinCo Proposal, and shall promptly request that each Person that has been provided with any confidential information in connection with any SpinCo Proposal prior to the date of this Agreement promptly return or destroy such information (if as of the execution of this Agreement not already so requested), including promptly terminating any access by any Person to any physical or electronic data room relating to any SpinCo Proposal. From the date hereof until the earlier to occur of (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article IX and (b) the Effective Time, the Company shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives not to: (i) solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate (including by way of furnishing information which has not been previously publicly disseminated) any proposal from or on behalf of a third party relating to any acquisition (whether by merger, purchase of Interests, purchase of assets or otherwise), exclusive license, joint venture, partnership, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other transaction involving any portion of the business or assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, constitutes 10% or more of the net revenues, net income or assets of the SpinCo Business (taken as a whole) (any of the foregoing, a “SpinCo Proposal”), or any inquiry, proposal or offer which would reasonably be expected to lead to a SpinCo Proposal, (ii) engage in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any nonpublic information relating to the SpinCo Business, SpinCo Business Assets or SpinCo Entities in connection with, any SpinCo Proposal or any inquiry, proposal, effort or attempt related to or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, a SpinCo Proposal, (iii) adopt, approve or recommend, or publicly propose to adopt, approve or recommend, any SpinCo Proposal or (iv) approve or authorize, or cause or permit the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to enter into, any merger agreement, acquisition agreement, reorganization agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or similar agreement or document relating to, or providing for, any SpinCo Proposal; provided that nothing in this Section 7.10 shall limit the Company’s ability to pursue or engage in any transaction relating to substantially all of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (as opposed to solely the SpinCo Business), so long as such transaction would not prevent or materially impair or materially delay the Company’s ability to comply with its obligations hereunder and under the Separation and Distribution Agreement or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

-94-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may make statements that are consistent with previous public releases made by such Party in compliance with this Section 7.11.

(ii) if this Agreement is terminated (A) pursuant to Section 9.1(e); (B) pursuant to Section 9.1(b) without a vote of the shareholders of Parent contemplated by this Agreement at the Parent Shareholders Meeting having occurred; or (C) pursuant to Section 9.1(f), and (x) in any such case, a Competing Proposal shall have been publicly announced (or otherwise communicated to the Parent Board) at any time after the date of this Agreement and (if made or communicated publicly) not publicly withdrawn at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of termination or, with respect to clause (C), prior to the Parent Shareholders Meeting, and (y) within twelve (12) months after the date of such termination, a transaction in respect of a Competing Proposal is consummated or Parent enters into a definitive agreement in respect of a Competing Proposal (which, in each case, need not be the same Competing Proposal that was made, disclosed or communicated prior to the termination hereof), then Parent shall be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on the second Business Day following the earlier of the date Parent enters into a definitive agreement in respect of and the date Parent consummates such transaction; provided, that, solely for purposes of this Section 9.3(b)(ii), the term “Competing Proposal” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7.9(g)(i), except that all references to 20% shall instead refer to 50%.

(c) The payment of the Termination Fee shall be compensation and liquidated damages for the loss suffered by the Company as a result of the failure of the Merger to be consummated and to avoid the difficulty of determining damages under the circumstances. Each of the Parties acknowledges that the Termination Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but rather represents liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company in the circumstances in which such Termination Fee is due and payable and which do not involve Fraud or Willful Breach, 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 transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Each Party further agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if Parent fails to pay any amounts due under this Section 9.3 and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company commences a suit that results in a judgment against

-107-

Parent for such amounts, Parent shall pay interest on such amounts from the date payment of such amounts was due to the date of actual payment at the rate equal to the prime rate published in the Wall Street Journal for the relevant period, together with the costs and expenses of the Company (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) in connection with such suit. Subject to Section 9.2, payment by Parent of the Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and SpinCo against Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Subsidiaries in circumstances where the Termination Fee is payable hereunder; provided however, that payment of the Termination Fee shall not relieve any of the foregoing from any liability or damage resulting from Fraud or Willful Breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, including this Section 9.3, shall in any way limit the provisions of Section 10.8.

(d) The Parties acknowledge and agree that in no event shall Parent be required to pay more than one Termination Fee.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.1 Non-Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. The obligations, covenants and agreements that by their terms are to be performed following the Closing pursuant to any Transaction Document, including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, or this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time in accordance with their terms and all other obligations, covenants and agreements herein and therein shall terminate and shall not survive the Closing. None of the representations or warranties in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Effective Time. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any termination of this Agreement, and the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to all information and material furnished by any Party or its Representatives thereunder or hereunder; provided that, following the Effective Time, Parent shall have no obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement with respect to information to the extent related to the SpinCo Entities or the SpinCo Business (except any Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities) or included in the SpinCo Business Assets, which information shall no longer be considered “Evaluation Material” for purposes thereof.

Section 10.2 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement, and all claims, disputes, controversies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement (including any schedule or exhibit hereto) or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim, dispute, controversy or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Each of the Parties agrees that any Action related to this agreement shall be brought exclusively in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if under applicable Law, exclusive jurisdiction over such matter is vested in the federal courts,

-108-

any federal court in the State of Delaware and any appellate court from any thereof (the “Chosen Courts”). By executing and delivering this Agreement, each of the Parties irrevocably: (i) accepts generally and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any Action relating to this Agreement, including any Action brought for any remedy contemplated by Section 10.8; (ii) waives any objections which such party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action contemplated by this Section 10.2 and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such Action has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat the personal jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (iv) agrees that it will not bring any Action contemplated by this Section 10.2 in any court other than the Chosen Courts; (v) agrees that service of all process, including the summons and complaint, in any Action may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to such party at their respective addresses provided in accordance with Section 10.3 or in any other manner permitted by Law; and (vi) agrees that service as provided in the preceding clause (v) is sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such party in the Action, and otherwise constitutes effective and binding service in every respect. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any Action in a Chosen Court as provided above may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law, and each party further agrees to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for the enforcement or execution of any such judgment.

-110-

Section 10.6 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any Party may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting Section 10.6(b)) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by a duly executed agreement in writing; provided, that after the Parent Shareholder Approval has been obtained, no amendment or waiver shall be made that pursuant to applicable Law requires further approval or adoption by the shareholders of Parent without such further approval or adoption. No waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the Parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver.

(b) This Agreement may be amended or modified, in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed by the Parties which makes reference to this Agreement; provided, that any amendments or modifications of this Section 10.6(b) or Sections 10.2 or 10.7, to the extent adversely affecting any of the SpinCo Lenders, may not be amended without the prior written consent of each of the SpinCo Lenders.

Section 10.7 Assignment; Parties in Interest; Non-Parties.

(a) No Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any attempted assignment or delegation in breach of this Section 10.7 shall be null and void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the Parties, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, except as provided in Section 7.8 and Section 10.7(b) (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such Persons).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is hereby agreed and acknowledged that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties hereto, and no former, current or future Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, equityholders, lenders, financing sources, managers, members, partners, agents or representatives of any Party, in each case, who is not a Party to this Agreement, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Parties hereto or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. Such Persons who are not Parties hereto are third party beneficiaries of Section 10.2, Section 10.6, Section 10.9 and this Section 10.7(b). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.7(b) shall not affect (a) the rights of the Persons party to the Debt Commitment Letter to enforce the Debt Commitment Letter in accordance with its terms; or (b) the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto set forth in Section 7.6.

-111-

Section 10.8 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that the failure to perform under this Agreement will cause an actual, immediate and irreparable harm and injury and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that, (i) each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) prior to the Closing or any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1, damages shall be awarded only in a case where a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined that, notwithstanding the Parties’ intention for specific performance to be the applicable remedy prior to termination or the Closing, such specific performance is not available or otherwise will not be granted as a remedy.

(b) The Parties further agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this Section 10.8, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement, including monetary damages, subject to the terms hereof, (ii) nothing contained in this Section 10.8 shall require any Party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 10.8 before exercising any termination right under Section 9.1 (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Action pursuant to this Section 10.8 or anything contained in this Section 10.8 restrict or limit any Party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 9.1 or to pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter and (iii) no Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 10.8, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

(c) To the extent either party hereto brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10.8, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus 20 Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

Section 10.9 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT (INCLUDING ANY SCHEDULE OR EXHIBIT HERETO AND THERETO) OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF SUCH AGREEMENTS. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 10.9. NO PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.9 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

-112-

Section 10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

Section 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by electronic or .pdf transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of any signature page by facsimile, electronic or .pdf transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

Section 10.12 Certain Financing Provisions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Parent and the Company, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries (other than, in the case of the Company, SpinCo and its Subsidiaries with respect to clauses (g) and (h) below and/or to the extent otherwise provided in the Debt Commitment Letter):

(a) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the SpinCo Lender Parties, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing, the Permanent Financing or any of the agreements (including the Debt Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the Financing or the Permanent Financing or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the agreements entered into in connection with the Financing or the Permanent Financing or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court;

(b) agrees that any such proceeding shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the Debt Commitment Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the Financing;

(c) agrees not to bring or support any proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any SpinCo Lender Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing, the Permanent Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the Debt Commitment Letter in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York;

-113-

(d) agrees that service of process upon such persons in any such proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 10.3;

(e) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such proceeding in any such court;

(f) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any proceeding brought against any SpinCo Lender Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Financing, the Permanent Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the Debt Commitment Letter;

(g) agrees that none of the SpinCo Lender Parties will have any liability to it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its respective Affiliates or Representatives (other than, following the Closing Date, Parent and SpinCo and their respective Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the Financing, the Permanent Financing or the Debt Commitment Letter) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Financing, the Permanent Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the Debt Commitment Letter, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise;

(h) hereby waives any and all claims and causes of action against the SpinCo Lender Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Financing, the Permanent Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the Debt Commitment Letter, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise; and

(i) agrees that the SpinCo Lender Parties are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions in this Agreement reflecting the foregoing agreements in this Section 10.12, and such provisions and the definitions of “SpinCo Lenders” and “SpinCo Lender Parties” (and any other provisions of this Agreement to the extent a modification thereof would affect the substance of any of the foregoing) shall not be amended in any way adverse to the SpinCo Lender Parties without the prior written consent of the applicable SpinCo Lenders.
