Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3, each share of the Company Stock will be sold by the Seller that owns such Company Stock and purchased by the Buyer in exchange for the following consideration, calculated by the Sellers and reflected on Annex A in accordance with Clause 37.1.b of the Company’s articles of association:

(i) Closing Date Payment. Payable upon the Closing, consideration equal to:

(1) cash, without interest, in an amount equal to the amount set forth opposite the relevant Seller’s name as set forth in Annex A in the column under the heading “Closing Consideration: Cash”, on the Seller’s bank account number as specified in Annex A, and, in an amount equal to Euro Seventy Five Thousand (€75,000), on Eubelius’ third party bank account number as specified in Annex A, plus

(2) the relevant Seller’s interest in the Promissory Note Interests, subject to and payable upon the occurrence of those events specified in Section 2.4 hereof (without interest other than set forth in the Promissory Note);

(ii) Post-Closing Adjustment. Payable upon the occurrence of those events specified in Section 2.9 hereof (the “Final Per Share Cash Adjustment Payment”), an amount of cash (without interest) to the relevant Seller equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) any True-Up Payment owed by Buyer by (y) such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion.

(iii) Post-Closing Consideration. Payable at the latest on April 7, 2014, a payment of cash or a number of shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.10 (the “Post-Closing Consideration”).

(b) Rounding down of Cash Consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate part of the consideration payable to any Seller in cash pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole eurocent.

(c) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock will be delivered to the Sellers under this Agreement. In lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, each Seller shall receive an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole eurocent) equal to the product of (a) the fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock to which such Seller would otherwise be entitled (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such Seller), multiplied by (b) the Parent Stock Price.

(d) Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or other payment pursuant to this Agreement to any Seller or any other Person such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under Belgian tax laws or otherwise under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid to the appropriate Tax Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made.

2.4 Promissory Notes.

(a) At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of all of the Sellers, a promissory note in the form attached as Exhibit 2 hereto, with an aggregate principal amount of Euro Eleven Million (€11,000,000) (the “Promissory Note”). Each Seller shall be entitled to an interest in the principal and interest payable pursuant to the Promissory Note in an amount equal to such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion (collectively, the “Promissory Note Interests”).

(b) Following the satisfaction by the Buyer or the Parent of any Promissory Note Interest, payable on the relevant Seller’s bank account number as specified in Annex A or as otherwise directed by the Sellers’ Representative, each Seller shall look only to the Sellers’ Representative (and not to Parent, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates) to receive such Seller’s portion of such principal and interest. It is expressly understood and agreed that Parent, Buyer, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall have no liability to any Seller for its portion of such principal and interest, so long as such principal and interest which is due has been paid or delivered, as applicable, in full by or on behalf of Buyer or Parent, as directed by the Sellers’ Representative.

2.5 Sellers’ Closing Deliverables.

(a) Registration of Transfer of Shares.

(a) Parent and Buyer agree to cause a special shareholders’ meeting of the Company to be held on the Closing Date promptly after the Closing and shall cause the Company to provide the Sellers with a copy of the minutes thereof promptly after the Closing, and shall cause the following resolutions to be adopted at that meeting by Buyer as the sole shareholder of the Company:

2.9 Closing Statement Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Closing Notice. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer has received a written notice, based on the input of an authorized director of the Company (the “Closing Notice”), setting forth good faith estimates of: (i) the Company’s current assets (other than deferred Tax assets that reflect timing differences between book and Tax accounting), applying the same accounting principles and methodologies used to prepare the Company Balance Sheet, (ii) the Company’s current liabilities (other than deferred Tax liabilities that reflect timing differences between book and Tax accounting), applying the same accounting principles and methodologies used to prepare the Company Balance Sheet, (iii) the Indebtedness (other than current liabilities), (iv) the Company’s Transaction Expenses that are unpaid, and (v) any Change in Control Payments that are unpaid, in each case as of the Closing (clauses (i) through (v) collectively the “Closing Cash Consideration Inputs”).

(b) Draft Closing Statement. As soon as practicable following the Closing, Buyer shall prepare a report setting forth the actual amounts of the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs, along with a summary showing in reasonable detail the Buyer’s calculation of such amounts (the “Draft Closing Statement”). Buyer shall deliver the Draft Closing Statement to the Sellers’ Representative not later than forty-five (45) days following the Closing Date.

(c) Review by Sellers’ Representative. As soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) Business Days of receipt of the Draft Closing Statement, the Sellers’ Representative shall provide to Buyer a written report indicating its agreement with, or specific, itemized and quantified objections to, the Draft Closing Statement (the

“Sellers’ Representative’s Report”). During such period, Buyer shall permit the Sellers’ Representative reasonable access to the Company’s books and records and personnel to the extent necessary to review the Draft Closing Statement; provided that the Sellers’ Representative shall treat all such information as confidential information of Buyer. All other items on the Draft Closing Statement which have not been cited as subject to objection in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report shall be deemed accepted by the Sellers’ Representative. Failure by the Sellers’ Representative to object to the Draft Closing Statement within such period shall be deemed to be the Sellers’ Representative’s acceptance of the entire Draft Closing Statement and all items therein.

(d) Agreement on Closing Statement.

(i) Within fifteen (15) Business Days of the receipt by Buyer of the Sellers’ Representative’s Report, the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall endeavor in good faith to agree on any matters in dispute, and any such resolution shall be final and binding on Buyer and the Sellers. Any matter that Buyer chooses not to dispute on the Sellers’ Representative’s Report within such fifteen (15) Business Day period shall be deemed accepted by Buyer.

(ii) If Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative are unable to agree on any remaining matters that were disputed in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report within fifteen (15) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of the Sellers’ Representative’s Report, then the matters contained in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report in dispute will be submitted for resolution to Ernst & Young (the “Appraiser”). The Appraiser shall be given reasonable access to all relevant financial information, books, records, schedules, memoranda and other documents prepared or reviewed by Buyer or any of its representatives that are relevant to the Draft Closing Statement, and to all personnel, including accounting personnel, involved in the preparation of the Draft Closing Statement, in connection with its calculation of the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs. The Appraiser shall use its accounting expertise to calculate, based solely on the written submissions of Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers’ Representative, on the other hand, and not by independent investigation, the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs and shall be instructed that its calculation (i) must be made in accordance with the standards and definitions in this Agreement, and (ii) with respect to each item in dispute, absent a finding by the Appraiser of manifest error or fraud, must be within the range of values established for such amount as determined by reference to the value assigned to such amount by the Sellers’ Representative in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report and by Buyer in the Draft Closing Statement. Within thirty (30) days of such submission, Appraiser shall issue a written report to the Sellers’ Representative and Buyer upon such disputed items (in no event enlarging or adding any new or additional item to those set forth in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report and not accepted by Buyer), and such written decision shall be final and binding upon the parties hereto. The Sellers’ Representative and Buyer shall

cooperate reasonably with each other and each other’s representatives to enable the Appraiser to render a written decision as promptly as possible. The fees and expenses of the Appraiser shall be borne by the Sellers (and paid by the Sellers’ Representative on their behalf) and Buyer in inverse proportion to their respective success on the merits, and such allocation of fees and expenses shall be calculated by the Appraiser and shall be final and binding on the parties. At any time, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative may agree to settle any objections raised in the Sellers’ Representative’s Report, which agreement shall be in writing and binding upon each of Buyer and the Sellers with respect to the subject matter of any such objection so resolved.

(iii) The Draft Closing Statement, revised to incorporate the resolution of any matters in dispute pursuant to Sections 2.9(c), 2.9(d)(i) and/or 2.9(d)(ii), as applicable, is referred to as the “Closing Statement.” The Closing Statement shall have the legal effect of an arbitral award and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto.

(e) Adjustment to Closing Consideration. If any of the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs in the Closing Statement are different than the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs in the Closing Notice, then a post-closing adjustment will be made to the Closing Consideration. If the True-Up Payment is positive, the Sellers shall be entitled to a payment from the Buyer in the amount of the True-Up Payment in accordance with Section 2.9(e)(ii). If the True-Up Payment is negative, the Buyer shall be entitled to a payment from the Sellers in the amount of the True-Up Payment in accordance with Section 2.9(e)(i). The True-Up Payment shall be treated as an adjustment to the Closing Consideration for Tax purposes to the greatest extent permitted by law. The True-Up Payment shall be made within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Closing Statement.

(i) Any True-Up Payment owed by the Sellers to the Buyer shall be paid by set-off against the principal amount and interest owed under the Promissory Note unless the size of such True-Up Payment would cause the principal and interest then outstanding under the Promissory Note to be less than Euro One Million Five Hundred Thousand (€1,500,000), in which case the Sellers, on an individual basis (‘niet hoofdelijk’), shall pay such True-Up Payment to the Buyer based upon each Seller’s Pro Rata Portion. If the Promissory Note Interests have already been paid to the Sellers, the Sellers’ Representative shall cause the Escrow Agent to release to Buyer from the Escrow Fund an amount equal to the True-Up Payment in immediately available funds by wire transfer to such bank account as Buyer may specify; provided that no True-Up Payment shall be paid by the Sellers if such payment is less than Euro Fifteen Thousand (€15,000); provided, further, that, if the True-Up Payment exceeds Euro Fifteen Thousand (€15,000), the full amount of such True-Up Payment, without regard to such threshold, shall be paid by the Sellers.

(ii) For any True-Up Payment owed by Buyer, Buyer shall pay an amount equal to the True-Up Payment in immediately available funds by a single wire transfer, as directed by the Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the Sellers; provided that no True-Up Payment shall be paid by the Buyer if such payment is less than Euro Fifteen Thousand (€15,000); provided, further, that, if the True-Up Payment exceeds Euro Fifteen Thousand (€15,000), the full amount of such True-Up Payment, without regard to such threshold, shall be paid by Buyer. Payments to the Sellers by the Buyer or as directed by the Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Section 2.9(e)(ii) shall be made in proportion to each Seller’s respective Pro Rata Portion, with each amount rounded down to the nearest whole euro cent.

2.10 Post-Closing Consideration. The Buyer shall, at its option, (a) on April 7, 2014, issue to each Seller, by book-entry to such Seller’s account with Parent’s transfer agent, the number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the Post-Closing Stock Amount multiplied by such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion as set forth opposite the relevant Seller’s name on Annex A hereto or (b) on or at any time prior to April 7, 2014, pay to each Seller, by wire transfer to such Seller’s bank account number specified in Annex A hereto, an amount in cash equal to the product of the Post-Closing Cash Amount multiplied by such Seller’s Pro Rata Portion as set forth opposite the relevant Seller’s name on Annex A hereto; provided, however, that if the Parent completes any registered public offering or any private investment in public equity (PIPE) financing transaction with institutional investors, pursuant to which it issues shares of Parent Common Stock for cash prior to the issuance of stock or payment of cash to the Sellers contemplated by clauses (a) and (b) above, the Buyer shall make the payment set forth in clause (b) above promptly after the closing of such financing. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Parent Common Stock issued upon the exercise of stock options or other equity incentives or other similar issuances of stock shall not trigger the Buyer’s obligations under the proviso to this Section 2.10, (ii) in no event shall Buyer be obligated to make the payments contemplated by both clauses (a) and (b) above and (iii) in no event shall Buyer be obligated to make the payment contemplated by this Section 2.10 more than once.

2.11 Further Assurances. In the event that at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the parties shall take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as the other party may reasonably request.

SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION; ESCROW

5.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of the Sellers contained in Annex B to this Agreement or in the Investor Questionnaires and all representations and warranties of Parent and Buyer contained in Annex C to this Agreement shall survive the consummation of the Stock Purchase and continue until the Escrow Termination Date, after which time such representations and warranties shall terminate and any Claim Notice or Indemnification Demand based thereon delivered after the Escrow Termination Date shall be inadmissible; provided, however, (i) for the avoidance of doubt, that such representations and warranties are given only at the time of the Closing and are not repeated or reiterated in respect of any later date, and (ii) that the Fundamental Representations shall survive indefinitely, and (iii) that if at any time prior to the termination of any specific representation or warranty, an Indemnified Party has duly delivered to the Indemnifying Party a valid Indemnification Demand or Claim Notice (with such Indemnification Demand or Claim Notice satisfying the requirements set forth in Sections 5.5(a) or 5.6(b), as applicable) relating to such representation or warranty, then the representation or warranty underlying the claim asserted in such Indemnification Demand or Claim Notice shall survive solely with respect to the claim (and only to the extent reasonably within the scope of the claim) in such notice until such time as such claim is resolved.

The Sellers and Buyer expressly agree pursuant to this Section 5.1 to shorten the statutes of limitation applicable to all claims and causes of action based directly or indirectly upon inaccuracies in or breaches of the representations and warranties made by the Buyer, the Parent or the Sellers in this Agreement. The respective covenants, agreements and obligations of the parties contained in this Agreement shall survive (A) until fully performed or fulfilled, unless non-compliance with such covenants, agreements or obligations is waived in writing by the party or parties entitled to such performance or (B) if not fully performed or fulfilled, until the later of the end of the applicable statute of limitations and any extensions thereof.

5.2 Escrow. A portion of the Closing Consideration equal to the Escrow Amount shall constitute escrowed closing consideration (collectively with any interest payable thereon, if any, the “Escrowed Closing Consideration”). In the event that the Parent or Buyer is obligated to make any payment to the Sellers in respect of the principal amount of the Promissory Note prior to the Escrow Termination Date, the Sellers agree that, out of such payment under the Promissory Note, an aggregate amount of cash equal to the Escrow Amount shall be deposited with the Escrow Agent in an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) established in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to secure the indemnification obligations of the Sellers under Article V and (y) any reduction made pursuant to Section 2.9(e) before any payment shall be made to the Sellers, and the Sellers agree that the deposit of amounts by the Buyer in the Escrow Account shall be deemed to be payments under the Promissory Note to the Sellers. The Escrow Agreement shall provide that Sellers are, for income tax purposes, the owner of the Escrowed Closing Consideration and are taxable on any earnings thereon. If any payment is required to be made to Buyer pursuant to this Article V, Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall promptly provide written instructions to the Escrow Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, to deliver to Buyer out of the Escrow Account an amount of cash that is equal in value to such required payment. The Parties agree that they shall cause the Escrow Agent to disburse the Escrowed Closing Consideration in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

(iv) any Indemnified Taxes;

it being understood that in case indemnification under this Article V, subject to Section 5.4, is due by all Sellers, the Buyer Indemnified Party shall be indemnified by each Seller in proportion to its respective Pro Rata Portion.

(b) In the event any Buyer Indemnified Party shall suffer any Losses the amount of which has been finally determined in accordance with this Agreement, for which such Buyer Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article V, subject to Section 5.4, such Buyer Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to recover such Losses, (i) before the date on which the Escrowed Closing Consideration is deposited in the Escrow Account, by setoff against any amounts payable to or for the account of the relevant Indemnifying Party under the Promissory Note (the “Setoff Mechanism”) and, after the Escrowed Closing Consideration is deposited in the Escrow Account, by obtaining such amount from the Escrow Account provided that such amount does not exceed the relevant Seller’s interest in the balance of the Escrow Account at such time, and (ii) with respect to Losses the amount of which has been finally determined in accordance with this Agreement that arise from or as a result of any inaccuracy in or breach of a Fundamental Representation of a Seller and which exceed the relevant Seller’s interest in the balance of the Escrow Account at such time, by setoff against any amounts payable by the Buyer or the Parent to such Seller or, if there are no amounts payable by the Buyer or the Parent to the relevant Seller, by payment in cash by the relevant Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Party.

(c) Subject to Section 5.1 and the limitations set forth in Section 5.4, each Seller Indemnified Party shall be entitled to be indemnified, defended and held harmless by Buyer and Parent on a joint and several basis (‘hoofdelijk’) from and against any Losses which are suffered or incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party which arise from or as a result of:

subject to Section 5.4, such Seller Indemnified Party shall only be entitled to recover such Losses (i) by set-off against any amounts then payable pursuant to this Agreement by the relevant Seller Indemnified Party to any Buyer Indemnified Party or, if there are no such amounts payable, (ii) by payment in cash by the Parent or the Buyer to the Seller Indemnified Party.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

(i) the Sellers shall not be liable if and to the extent that Losses result or arise from (a) any action or omission by the Parent or any of its Affiliates or the Company or by any person whose actions or omissions are attributable to one of them, occurring after the Closing Date and done in the knowledge that such action or omission could reasonably be expected to give rise to, or increase the extent of, Losses, and with the exception of actions or omissions to comply with Legal Requirements, (b) any changes in Legal Requirements after the Closing Date, (c) any changes in the accounting or Tax policy or practice of the Company after the Closing Date, with the exception of changes made to remedy existing non-compliance with Legal Requirements;

(ii) the Sellers shall not be liable for any Losses in respect of any individual claim under Section 5.3(a)(i), other than in respect of a Fundamental Representation or fraud, unless the amount of such Losses exceed Euro Fifteen Thousand (€15,000) (the “Threshold”), in which event the Sellers shall, subject to the other limitations contained herein, be responsible for the entire amount of such Losses,

(iii) neither the Buyer nor the Parent shall be liable for any Losses in respect of any individual claim under Section 5.3(c)(i), other than in respect of a Fundamental Representation or fraud, unless the amount of such Losses exceed the Threshold, in which event the Buyer and Parent shall, subject to the other limitations contained herein, be responsible for the entire amount of such Losses,

(iv) the Sellers shall not be liable for any Losses in respect of any claim under Section 5.3(a)(i), other than in respect of a Fundamental Representation or fraud, unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses (including for this purpose Losses in respect of any claim that do not exceed the Threshold) which may be recovered from the Sellers exceeds Euro One Hundred Fifty Thousand (€150,000) (the “Deductible Amount”), in which event the Sellers shall, subject to the other limitations contained herein, be liable only for the portion of such Losses in excess of the Deductible Amount,

(v) neither the Buyer nor the Parent shall be liable for any Losses in respect of any claim under Section 5.3(c)(i), other than in respect of a Fundamental Representation or fraud, unless and until the aggregate amount of Losses (including for this purpose Losses in respect of any claim that do not exceed the Threshold) which may be recovered from the Sellers exceeds the Deductible Amount, in which event the Buyer and Parent shall, subject to the other limitations contained herein, be liable only for the portion of such Losses in excess of the Deductible Amount, and

(vi) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses under this Article V that may be recovered from the Sellers shall be the Escrow Amount (the “Cap”), it being understood that the Sellers shall not be liable for Losses in the aggregate in excess of the Cap, provided that the limitation on the obligation to indemnify to an amount equal to the Cap shall not apply to any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation or fraud;

(vii) the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses under this Article V that may be recovered from the Buyer and Parent shall be the Cap, it being understood that Buyer or Parent shall not be liable for Losses in the aggregate in excess of an amount equal to the Cap, provided that the limitation on the obligation to indemnify to an amount equal to the Cap shall not apply to any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, fraud or, for the avoidance of doubt, to the obligation to pay the Closing Consideration in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) any Losses recoverable hereunder shall be net of (A) any insurance proceeds actually realized by any Indemnified Party that are directly attributable to such Losses (provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to litigate any dispute, or otherwise bring any claim, lawsuit or other proceeding to obtain such insurance proceeds), (B) any prior or subsequent contribution or other payments or recoveries of a like nature by the Indemnified Party from any third party (other than the Indemnifying Party) with respect to such Losses; and (C) any Tax savings attributable to such Losses that are recognized by the Indemnified Party in the year the Loss arises; and (ii) no Losses (other than Losses from Third-Party Claims that are actually paid to third parties) shall be recoverable that constitute punitive or consequential damages, or any diminution in value and (iii) Losses shall not be calculated by using or taking into account any multiple of earnings, book value, cash flow or other measure. Each Indemnified Party shall be obligated to use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all Losses after it becomes aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable or recoverable hereunder or in connection herewith.

(d) No Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification under this Article V with respect to any Losses to the extent that such Losses have been incorporated into the final determination of the Closing Statement pursuant to Section 2.9 and Buyer has been paid the True-Up Payment, if any, with respect to the full amount of such Losses to which it is entitled pursuant to such Section.

(e) After any indemnification payment is made to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article V, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights (if any) of the Indemnified Party against any third party in connection with the Losses to which such payment relates. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, any Indemnified Party receiving an indemnification payment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall execute, upon the written request of the Indemnifying Party, any instrument reasonably necessary to evidence such subrogation rights.

(f) The right to indemnification pursuant to this Article V shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Indemnified Parties for any Losses incurred by any Indemnified Party (other than claims for injunctive relief and/or specific performance of covenants that require performance after the Closing); provided that a party’s liability for fraud shall not be limited under this Article V. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree that once the Escrow Amount has been exhausted or fully paid to the Sellers, the only liability of the Sellers for Losses hereunder that shall survive shall be with respect to breaches of any of the Fundamental Representations, which liability shall (i) be on an individual basis (‘niet-hoofdelijk’) among the Sellers and shall be allocated in proportion to each Seller’s respective Pro Rata Portion and (ii) in no event exceed the amount of Closing Consideration received by such Seller. The Indemnified Parties may not avoid such limitation on liability by seeking damages for breach of contract or tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability against the Sellers, or against the directors appointed upon nomination of the Sellers or the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company for any theory of personal liability.

5.5 Third-Party Claims.

(a) In the event that an Indemnified Party becomes aware of a third-party claim (a “Third-Party Claim”) that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes may result in a demand for indemnification pursuant to this Article V, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such Third-Party Claim and the euro amount of such Third-Party Claim, to the extent known (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that no delay or failure

on the part of an Indemnified Party in delivering any Claim Notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability hereunder except and to the extent the Indemnifying Party have been actually prejudiced by such delay or failure.

(b) Buyer may, at its election, undertake and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim upon written notice of such election to the Sellers’ Representative within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Claim Notice. The Sellers’ Representative shall be entitled to participate in (except to the extent necessary to preserve attorney-client privilege), but not to determine or conduct, the defense of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that Buyer shall have the right in its reasonable discretion to settle any such claim; provided, further, that except with the prior written consent of the Sellers’ Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), no settlement of any such Third-Party Claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of any Losses relating to such matter. The Sellers’ Representative shall have the right to provide input to the Buyer with respect the defense of Third-Party Claims, and the Buyer shall consider in good faith such input provided by the Sellers’ Representative with a view to limiting potential Losses to the largest extent possible.

(c) If Buyer does not so elect to undertake and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Sellers’ Representative may undertake the defense of and use all reasonable efforts to defend such claim and shall consult with Buyer regarding the strategy for defense of such claim, including with respect to the Sellers’ Representative choice of legal counsel, it being understood that such consultation shall not confer upon Buyer the right to determine or conduct the defense; Parent and Buyer shall take all necessary steps to allow such counsel appointed by Seller’s Representative to act as legal counsel to the relevant Indemnified Party and Parent and Buyer shall cause such counsel to comply with any reasonable instructions of the Seller’s Representative in respect of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative shall have the right in its reasonable discretion to settle any such claim; provided, further, that except with the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), no settlement of any such Third-Party Claim with third-party claimants shall be determinative of any Losses relating to such matter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (i) the control of the defense by the Sellers’ Representative would be inappropriate due to a conflict of interest or because the Buyer has been advised by counsel that in such counsel’s opinion it has claims or defenses that are unavailable to the Sellers or which the Sellers’ Representative is unable or unwilling to assert, (ii) such Third-Party Claim (or the facts or allegations related to such Third-Party Claim) involves criminal allegations or seeks relief against the Buyer, its directors, officers or agents, or (iii) the Sellers’ Representative fail at any time to conduct the defense of such proceeding, claim or demand in a reasonably active and diligent manner, then Buyer shall have the right to assume the control of such defense. Until the Sellers’ Representative assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, Buyer may defend against such Third-Party Claim

in any manner Buyer reasonably deems appropriate at cost and expense of the Sellers if the Sellers are liable for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article V, the Sellers’ Representative shall not enter into any compromise, settlement agreement or consent decree with respect to any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) unless such compromise, settlement agreement or consent decree (x) provides solely for the payment of money in an amount that is less than the amount of the Escrow Amount then remaining in the Escrow Fund, (y) contains a complete and unconditional release by the third party asserting the Third-Party Claim and (z) does not contain any direct or indirect requirements upon or provisions for or impose any obligations on the Buyer or the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.

(d) The party controlling the defense of a Third-Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) shall (i) keep the other party (the “Non-controlling Party”) advised of the status of such claim and the defense thereof (including all material developments and events relating thereto) and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto, and (ii) make available to the Non-controlling Party any documents or materials in its possession or control that may be necessary to understand the defense of such claim (subject to protection of the attorney-client privilege). If requested by the Controlling Party, the Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Third-Party Claim (including copies of any summons, complaints or other pleadings which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

5.6 Notice of Indemnity Claims Other than Third-Party Claims.

(a) If an Indemnified Party reasonably believes itself to be entitled to indemnification under this Article V other than with respect to a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnified Party shall deliver a written demand (an “Indemnification Demand”) to the Indemnifying Party within twenty (20) Business Days of such Indemnified Party determining that it is entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of an Indemnified Party in delivering any Indemnification Demand shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability hereunder except and to the extent the Indemnifying Party have been actually prejudiced by such delay or failure. The Indemnification Demand shall contain (i) a reasonably detailed description of the facts and circumstances giving rise to the alleged inaccuracy in such representation and warranty or breach of such covenant or other specific circumstance entitling such Indemnified Party to such indemnification; (ii) a description and the amount of any Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (iii) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 5.3 for such Losses and the

specific representation and warranty alleged to have been inaccurate or specific covenant alleged to have been breached or other specific circumstance entitling such Parent Indemnified Party to such indemnification and (iv) a demand for payment in the amount of such Losses.

(b) The Indemnifying Party may object to any liability claim set forth in an Indemnification Demand by delivering written notice to the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s objection (an “Indemnification Dispute Notice”). Such Indemnification Dispute Notice will describe the grounds (to the extent known) for such objection in reasonable detail. If the Indemnifying Party fails to deliver an Indemnification Dispute Notice to the Indemnified Party within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of an Indemnification Demand from an Indemnified Party that it disputes the indemnity claimed therein, the indemnity claim set forth in the Indemnification Demand shall be conclusively deemed a liability to be indemnified under this Article V, and such Indemnified Party shall, subject to the limitations contained in this Article V, be indemnified for the amount of the Losses stated in such Indemnification Demand on demand. If an Indemnification Dispute Notice is delivered, the parties shall thereafter comply with the following dispute resolution provisions:

(i) The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall attempt to resolve such dispute promptly by negotiation in good faith. Each such party shall give the other party involved written notice of any dispute not so resolved within ten (10) Business Days following delivery of an Indemnification Dispute Notice. Within five (5) Business Days following delivery of such notice, the party receiving notice shall submit to the other a written response thereto. The notice and response shall include the name and title of the Person who will represent the Indemnified Party and any other Person who will accompany that Person, in the case of the Indemnified Party, or the name and title of the Person who will represent the Indemnifying Party and any other Person who will accompany that Person, in the case of the Indemnifying Party.

(ii) Within ten (10) Business Days following delivery of the notice pursuant to Section 5.6(b)(i), the designated officer or other designated agent of the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall meet at a mutually agreed time and place, and thereafter, as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the dispute. All negotiations conducted pursuant to this Section 5.6(b) (and any of the parties’ submissions in contemplation thereof) shall be kept confidential by the parties.

(c) In the event the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are unable to resolve any dispute identified in an Indemnification Dispute Notice in accordance with provisions (i) and (ii) of this Section 5.6(b) within forty-five (45) days after delivery of any Indemnification Dispute Notice, either the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party may seek to resolve the matter through arbitration in accordance with Section 8.5.

5.7 No Circular Recovery. After the Closing, the Sellers shall not have any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against the Company, its Affiliates, or any of its respective directors, officers or employees (in their respective capacity of director, officer or employee), for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Indemnifying Party; provided that the Sellers shall have the right of subrogation set forth in Section 5.4(e).

5.8 Determination of Indemnifiable Losses. For the purpose of calculating the amount of the Losses resulting from a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty (but not for the purpose of determining the existence of such breach or inaccuracy), any “material,” “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” qualifiers or words of similar import contained in such representation or warranty giving rise to the claim of indemnity hereunder shall in each case be disregarded and without effect (as if such standard or qualification were deleted from such representation or warranty).

5.9 Tax Consequences of Indemnification Payments. Any payments made to an Indemnified Party pursuant to any indemnification obligations under this Article V will be treated as adjustments to the purchase price for all Tax purposes, and the parties shall file their respective Tax Returns accordingly and such agreed treatment will govern for purposes of this Agreement, unless otherwise required by law.

ARTICLE VI.

POST-CLOSING OBLIGATIONS

6.1 Confidentiality. The parties acknowledge that the Company and Parent have previously executed the Mutual Nondisclosure Agreement, dated July 12, 2013 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which Confidentiality Agreement will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms and each of Parent and the Company will hold, and will cause its respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (including attorneys, accountants, consultants, bankers and financial advisors) to hold, any Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.2 Public Disclosure. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Parent and the Sellers’ Representative will consult with each other before issuing, and provide each other the opportunity to review, comment upon and concur with, and will agree on any press release or public statement with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Stock Purchase, and will not issue, and will ensure that the Buyer and the Company do not issue, any such press release or make

any such public statement prior to such consultation and agreement, except as may be required by applicable Legal Requirements or any listing agreement with any applicable national or regional securities exchange or market. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) each of the Company, Parent and Buyer may make internal announcements to its employees as reasonably necessary to communicate the relevant details of the Stock Purchase, and (b) Parent and Buyer shall be entitled to respond to analysts’ questions in the ordinary course and in a manner consistent with any previous disclosure made in accordance with this Section 6.2.

6.3 Publication of Resignation. The Parent and the Buyer shall ensure and procure that the Company shall do what is necessary for the filing and publication of (i) the resignation of the former directors and (ii) the appointment of new directors.

6.4 Discharge of Directors. The Parent and the Buyer irrevocably undertake to vote (or shall cause to vote) at the next annual shareholders’ meetings of the Company in favor of a resolution granting the directors and the statutory auditor of the Company full discharge for the performance of their office as directors and auditor until the Closing Date.

6.5 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Returns.

(i) Buyer shall procure that the Company prepares and timely files, or causes to be prepared and timely filed, on a basis consistent with past practice unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements, all Tax Returns for the Company for any periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are filed after the Closing Date and all Tax Returns for the Company for any Straddle Periods. Buyer shall deliver to the Sellers’ Representative for the Sellers’ Representative’s review and comment a copy of each such Tax Return at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return (taking into account any extension). Buyer shall make any reasonable changes requested by the Sellers’ Representative at least five (5) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Return.

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of Straddle Period, the portion of any Taxes allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be (i) in the case of Property Taxes for assets held by the Company at Closing and that were already subject to such Property Taxes prior to Closing, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days of such Straddle Period in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes, determined as though the taxable year of the Company terminated at the close of business on Closing.

(b) Tax Contests. Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers’ Representative, on the other hand, shall promptly notify each other upon receipt by such party of written notice of any inquiries, claims, assessments, audits or similar events with respect to Taxes relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event, a “Tax Contest”). Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct of all Tax Contests, including any settlement or compromise thereof; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall keep the Sellers’ Representative reasonably informed of the progress of any Tax Contest; the Sellers’ Representative will have the right to participate in the defense of such Tax Contest at the sole expense of the Sellers; and (ii) and Buyer shall not resolve such Tax Contest in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on any indemnification obligations under Article V without the Sellers’ Representative’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each party shall bear its own costs for participating in such Tax Contest. In the event of any conflict or overlap between the provisions of this Section 6.5(b) and Section 5.4(f), the provisions of this Section 6.5(b) shall prevail.

(c) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer and the Sellers’ Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement and any Tax Contest. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which may be reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax Contest and making appropriate persons available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(d) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, stamp, documentary, sales, use, registration, value-added and other similar Taxes (including all applicable real estate transfer Taxes) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (“Transfer Taxes”) will be borne by the Sellers. The Sellers’ Representative hereby agrees to file in a timely manner all necessary documents (including, but not limited to, all Tax Returns) with respect to such Transfer Taxes. The Sellers’ Representative shall provide Buyer with evidence satisfactory to Parent that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by the Sellers’ Representative.

(e) Any Tax refunds received by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (or credits for overpayments for Tax to which any of the foregoing are entitled) after the Closing and that relate to Taxes paid by the Company with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (to the extent such Taxes were paid by the Company prior to the Closing or by the Sellers pursuant to Article V after the Closing) shall be for the account of the Sellers, other

than refunds (or credits) that arise as a result of a carryback of a loss or other Tax benefit from a Tax period or portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date or such refunds (or credits) were included as an asset in determining the Closing Cash Consideration Inputs in the Closing Statement. Buyer shall pay to the Sellers any such refund (or the amount of any such credit), net of any expenses or Taxes incurred by Buyer or any of its Affiliates and specifically and separately attributable to such refund (or credit), within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such refund (or fifteen (15) days after the due date of the Tax Return claiming such credit). Except in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns pursuant to Section 6.5(a) or to the extent reasonably and timely requested by the Sellers’ Representative, Buyer shall have no obligation to claim or obtain any refund or credit that will give rise to a payment to Sellers pursuant to this Section 6.5(e). To the extent any such refund (or credit) is subsequently disallowed or required to be returned to the applicable Tax Authority, the Sellers agree promptly to repay the amount of such refund (or credit), together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Tax Authority, to Buyer.

(f) Without the consent of the Sellers’ Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, none of Buyer or any Affiliate thereof shall amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return of the Company relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or waive any limitations period with respect to such Tax Returns, if such amendment, refiling, modification or waiver would reasonably be expected to result in damages for which indemnification of Buyer would be required hereunder, unless otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements.

6.6 Preparation of Financial Statements. Effective as of the Closing Date, at Buyer’s expense, each of the Sellers agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts and cooperate, and cause the Company’s accountants to use commercially reasonable efforts and cooperate, in providing (a) historical financial information to Parent and Buyer, as applicable, in a manner to allow Parent to satisfy its filing obligations with the SEC, (b) any related supporting schedules in the format reasonably required by Parent for use by its Subsidiaries at such time (and as may be updated by Parent in its reasonable discretion from time to time), and (c) any other information reasonably requested by Parent in order to comply with the requirements of Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act or the preparation of audited and pro forma Company financial statements by Parent. Each Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make itself available to Parent and its accountants and financial advisors, and shall promptly respond to reasonable requests made by Parent and its accountants and financial advisors, relating to the preparation of the financial statements and schedules set forth in this Section 6.6.

6.7 Registration Rights.

Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable. Parent shall be permitted to suspend or delay for one or more periods not exceeding, in the aggregate, forty-five (45) calendar days (each such period, a “Suspension”) the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement and the use of a prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement in the event that (A) Parent is engaged in any activity or transaction or preparations or negotiations for any activity or transaction that Parent desires to keep confidential for business reasons, if Parent determines in good faith that the public disclosure requirements imposed on Parent under the Securities Act in connection with the Registration Statement would require disclosure of such activity, transaction, preparations or negotiations, (B) any financial statements or other information required to be included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement are not available, (C) Parent has timely filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to satisfy its undertakings under Item 512 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act or to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and such amendment shall have not yet been declared effective by the Commission or (D) Parent files a registration statement with the SEC for a public offering of its securities.

(b) Restrictions on Transferability.

(i) Each Seller agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued under this Agreement or its right to receive such shares that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act or pursuant to any applicable state securities or blue sky laws of any state, except (A) as contemplated by the Registration Statement referred to in Section 6.7(a) above, (B) pursuant to the requirements of Rule 144 (in which case such Seller will provide Parent with reasonable evidence of such Seller’s compliance therewith) or (C) pursuant to a written opinion of legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to Parent and addressed to Parent to the effect that registration under Section 5 of the Securities Act is not required in connection with the proposed transfer; whereupon the holder of such securities shall be entitled to transfer such securities. Each certificate evidencing the securities transferred as above provided shall bear the appropriate restrictive legends as may be required by Section 2.8.

(ii) Each Seller hereby covenants that such Seller will not sell any shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to any prospectus during a Suspension.

(iii) None of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued hereunder shall be transferable except upon the conditions specified in this Section 6.7, which are intended to ensure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. Each Seller will cause any proposed transferee of such shares to agree to take and hold such shares subject to the provisions and upon the conditions specified in this Section 6.7 if and to the extent that such shares continue to be restricted securities in the hands of the transferee.

(iv) Subject to Section 6.7(d) hereof, each Seller covenants that such Seller will sell or transfer any shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with the applicable Registration Statement (to the extent such Seller is not relying on clauses (B) or (C) of Section 6.7(b)(i) hereof), the Securities Act, applicable state, Belgian and other applicable securities laws and, to the extent the exemption from prospectus delivery requirements in Rule 172 under the Securities Act is not available, the requirement of delivering a current prospectus in connection with any proposed transfer or sale of such shares.

(c) Furnish Information. It shall be a condition to Parent’s obligations to take any action under this Agreement with respect to the registration of a Seller’s Registrable Securities that such Seller shall promptly furnish to Parent, such information regarding itself, such Seller’s Registrable Securities, and the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities as may reasonably be requested by Parent. In connection therewith, each Seller shall be required to represent to Parent that all such information which is given is both complete and accurate when made.

(d) Indemnification. Parent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Seller Indemnified Party whose shares of Parent Common Stock issued hereunder are included in the Registration Statement against any losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities to which such Seller Indemnified Party may become subject by reason of any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omission to state therein a fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities arise out of or are based upon information furnished to Parent by or on behalf of a Seller for use in the Registration Statement. Parent shall have the right to assume the defense and settlement of any claim or suit for which Parent may be responsible for indemnification under this Section.

(e) Assignment of Rights. A Seller may not assign any of its rights under this Section 6.7 except in connection with the transfer of some or all of his, her or its shares of Parent Common Stock issued hereunder to a child or spouse, or trust for their benefit or, in the case of a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, to its partners, members or stockholders, respectively, pursuant to a pro rata distribution of such shares, provided each such transferee agrees in a written instrument delivered to the Parent to be bound by the provisions of this Section 6.7.

6.8 Sellers’ Representative.

(a) Each of the Sellers hereby agrees to appoint Thuja Capital Healthcare Fund B.V. as its agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Sellers’ Representative”) for and on behalf of the Sellers to execute, deliver and receive notices, certificates, documents and communications, to represent the Sellers in respect of the Closing Statement, to authorize payment to the Buyer from the Escrow Account in satisfaction of claims by the Buyer, to object to such payments, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, to assert, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to any other claim by the Buyer against any Seller or by any such Seller against the Buyer or the Parent or any dispute between the Buyer or the Parent and any such Seller, in each case relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and to take all other actions that are either (i) necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Sellers’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing or (ii) specifically mandated by the terms of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement. As the representative of the Sellers, the Sellers’ Representative shall act as the agent for each of the Sellers and have authority to bind each Seller in connection with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and Buyer may rely on such appointment and authority until the receipt of a written notice sent by the Sellers of the appointment of a successor Sellers’ Representative.

(b) The Sellers’ Representative shall not be liable to any Seller for any act done or omitted hereunder as Sellers’ Representative while acting in good faith, except if such act or omission constitutes gross negligence (‘grove nalatigheid’) on the part of such Sellers’ Representative. Towards the Buyer and the Parent, the Sellers’ Representative shall only have the duties stated in this Agreement and shall have no other duty, express or implied. The Sellers’ Representative may engage attorneys, accountants and other professionals and experts. The Sellers’ Representative may in good faith rely conclusively upon information, reports, statements and opinions prepared or presented by such professionals, and any action taken by the Sellers’ Representative based on such reliance shall be deemed conclusively to have been taken in good faith. The Sellers shall indemnify the Sellers’ Representative and hold the Sellers’ Representative harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred on the part of the Sellers’ Representative (so long as the Sellers’ Representative were acting in good faith in connection therewith) and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Sellers’ Representative’s duties hereunder, including the reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel retained by the Sellers’ Representative (“Sellers’ Representative Expenses”).

The Sellers shall cause Novartis Animal Health Inc. to formally agree that the obligation of the Company, under that certain Exclusive License Agreement for the Development and Commercialization of Oftalvir entered into by and between Novartis Animal Health Inc. and the Company, dated August 20, 2013 (the “NAH Agreement”), to enter into Pharmacovigilance and Quality Assurance Agreements with Novartis Animal Health Inc. within four (4) months of entering into the NAH Agreement shall not apply until within four (4) months of such times as the Company has (i) a commercial product in the market, with respect to entering into a Pharmacovigilance Agreement and (ii) a supplier in place and a commercial product in the market with respect to entering into a Quality Assurance Agreement.

6.10 Intellectual Property. Sellers covenant to take all efforts necessary to memorialize, in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer, Company’s right, title and interest in and to all Company Patent Rights disclosed in item 10 (Warranty 1.10(a)(i)) of Schedule 1 to the Disclosure Letter within 10 Business Days of the effective date of the Agreement, such activities to include memorialization of inventor assignments to Company. Sellers also agree to provide Buyer with the original inventor assignments to be executed by the relevant inventors.

8.4 Entire Agreement; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Disclosure Letter, Annex A, Annex B and Annex C, the Escrow Agreement and any certificates delivered pursuant to this Agreement (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, it being understood that the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing and shall survive any termination of this Agreement and (b) are not intended to confer upon any

other Person other than Parent any rights or remedies hereunder and no Person other than Parent is or shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary hereunder, except, following the Closing, such provisions that act for the benefit of the Sellers, as set forth in Sections 2.3(a) and 2.3(b), respectively.

8.5 Governing Law; Arbitration.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND ANY DISPUTES ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE OR OTHERWISE) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, ENFORCED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF BELGIUM, WITHOUT REGARD FOR THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

(b) Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, and also including claims sounding in contract, tort, statute or otherwise (each, a “Dispute”) shall be finally resolved and decided by binding arbitration pursuant to the then-applicable Rules of Arbitration (the “Rules”) of the Netherlands Arbitration Institute (the “NAI”) which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Agreement. Any party shall refer the Dispute to arbitration by sending a written notice of such Dispute to the other party or parties and shall simultaneously file a Request for Arbitration in accordance with the Rules. The Dispute shall be resolved by three (3) arbitrators to be selected in the following manner. Within thirty (30) days after the date of the notice initiating arbitration, one arbitrator shall be selected by the petitioning party (the “Claimant”) and one arbitrator shall be selected by the party defending the arbitration (the “Respondent”), within thirty (30) days thereafter, failing which such arbitrator shall be appointed by the NAI pursuant to the Rules. The third arbitrator shall be selected by the two (2) arbitrators selected by the Claimant and the Respondent, or, if such arbitrators cannot agree within thirty (30) days on the third arbitrator, such arbitrator shall be selected by the NAI pursuant to the Rules. The seat of the arbitration proceeding shall be in the City of Amsterdam. All communications during the any settlement negotiations under this clause shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the applicable rules of evidence and any additional confidentiality and professional secrecy protections provided by applicable Law. The language of arbitration shall be English.

(c) The decision of the arbitral panel shall be in writing and shall set forth in detail the facts of the Dispute and the reasons for the decision. The arbitral panel shall not have the authority to award punitive damages to any injured party. The arbitral award shall be final and binding on the Parties from the day it is made. In the event that

the losing party fails or refuses to comply with the arbitral award within fourteen (14) days following the date of receipt of notice of the award, then the prevailing party may immediately proceed to request the judicial approval necessary for execution and enforcement of the award before a competent court or before any other court where such party or its assets and properties may be found, and the Parties agree not to oppose the immediate domestication (or confirmation and entry of judgment upon the award) and/or enforcement of the award in any such court, including without limitation the courts of the United States or any other country. For the avoidance of doubt, each party waives, in respect of both itself and its property, any defense it may have as to, or based on, lack of jurisdiction, improper venue or inconvenient forum.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall be construed as preventing any party from seeking interim injunctive or conservatory relief in any court of competent jurisdiction. For purposes of any such application for interim injunctive or conservatory relief, each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Brussels, Belgium.

(e) All of the costs, fees and expenses that arise from the arbitral proceeding, including the costs and fees of the Claimant and Respondent’s respective counsel, as well as the fees of the arbitrators shall be paid by the losing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrators. Said losing party shall reimburse the prevailing party any amounts deposited by the prevailing party at the commencement of the arbitration or thereafter as required by the arbitrators.

8.6 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

8.7 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur 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, each of the parties agrees that, without posting bond or other undertaking, the other parties will be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or violations of the provisions of this Agreement and to

enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. Each party further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach or violation, it will not assert the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.

8.8 Legal Representation. If the Sellers’ Representative so desires, acting on behalf of the Sellers and without the need for any consent or waiver by the Company or Buyer, Eubelius (“Eubelius”) shall be permitted to represent the Sellers after the Closing in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any other agreements referenced herein or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after the Closing, Eubelius shall be permitted to represent the Sellers, any of their agents and Affiliates, or any one or more of them, in connection with any negotiation, transaction or dispute (including any litigation, arbitration or other adversary proceeding) with Buyer, the Company or any of their agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and any related matter, such as claims or disputes arising under other agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement, including with respect to any indemnification claims. Upon and after the Closing, the Company shall cease to have any attorney-client relationship with Eubelius, unless and to the extent Eubelius is specifically engaged in writing by the Company to represent the Company after the Closing and either such engagement involves no conflict of interest with respect to the Sellers or the Sellers’ Representative consents in writing at the time to such engagement. Any such representation of the Company by Eubelius after the Closing shall not affect the foregoing provisions hereof.

8.9 Attorney-Client Privilege. The attorney-client privilege of the Company related to the Stock Purchase shall be deemed to be the right of the Sellers, and not that of Buyer or the Parent, following the Closing, and may be waived only by the Sellers’ Representative. Absent the consent of the Sellers’ Representative, neither Parent nor Buyer shall have a right to access attorney-client privileged material of the Company related to the Stock Purchase following the Closing.

8.10 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

8.11 Assignment. No party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties, except in respect of the Promissory Note in accordance with Section 8.8 thereof. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 8.11 shall be void. Subject to the

preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon satisfaction of its obligations under Section 2.10 hereof, Buyer may sell, transfer or assign its rights under this Agreement to any third party, as part of a sale or transfer of substantially all of the assets of the Buyer; provided that such third party agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

8.12 No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder will impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right.
