(a)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall not constitute an agreement to transfer or assign any asset, permit, claim, right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party, would constitute a breach or other contravention under any agreement or Law to which any Seller Entity or Acquired Entity is a party or by which it is bound, or in any way adversely affect the rights of any Seller Entity, Acquired Entity or, upon transfer, the Buyer and the Buyer Designees (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Entities) under such asset, permit, claim or right (collectively, “Non-Assignable Assets”). Prior to the Closing, and continuing for a period of 12 months following the Closing Date, the Seller shall use, and shall cause the other Seller Entities to use, and the Buyer shall use, and shall cause the Buyer Designees to use, their respective commercially reasonable

efforts to obtain any consents or waivers required to assign to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee any Non-Assignable Asset, without any conditions to such transfer or changes or modifications of terms thereunder, and without any obligation to pay any consent, approval or waiver fee, discount, rebate or any money or other consideration to any Person. The Buyer agrees that none of the Seller Entities or, prior to the Closing, the Acquired Entities shall have any liability to the Buyer and the Buyer Designees (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Entities) arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent that may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or because of any circumstances resulting therefrom, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Buyer further agrees that no representation, warranty or covenant of the Seller herein shall be breached or deemed breached, and no condition shall be deemed not satisfied, as a result of (i) the failure to obtain any such consent or any circumstances resulting therefrom or (ii) any suit, action, proceeding or investigation commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent or any circumstances resulting therefrom, and that the Closing shall proceed in accordance with this Agreement and the Buyer and/or the Buyer Designees shall pay the full Estimated Purchase Price at the Closing without the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer or delivery of such Non-Assignable Assets, in each case except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

(b)    If any such consent is not obtained prior to Closing and as a result thereof the Buyer or a Buyer Designee shall be prevented by such third party from receiving the rights and benefits with respect to such Non-Assignable Asset intended to be transferred hereunder, or if any attempted assignment would adversely affect the rights of any Seller Entity or Acquired Entity, or, after the Closing, the Buyer, a Buyer Designee or any Acquired Entity thereunder so that the Buyer or a Buyer Designee or such Acquired Entity would not in fact receive all such rights or the Buyer, the Buyer Designees or the applicable Acquired Entity would forfeit or otherwise lose the benefit of rights that such entity is entitled to retain, then until the earliest of (i) such time as such consent is obtained, or such consent has been denied in writing, (ii) 12 months following the Closing Date and (iii) with respect to a Non-Assignable Asset that is a Contract, the expiration of the term of such Contract in accordance with its current term or the execution of a replacement Contract following the Closing by the Buyer, a Buyer Designee, an Acquired Entity or an Affiliate of the Buyer, the Seller shall cooperate (and the Seller shall cause the Seller Entities to cooperate) with the Buyer (and the Buyer shall cause the Buyer Designees to cooperate) in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement, as the Seller and the Buyer shall agree, under which the Buyer or a Buyer Designee would obtain the economic claims, rights and benefits under such Non-Assignable Asset and assume the economic burdens and obligations with respect thereto in accordance with this Agreement, including by subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee; provided, that all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the applicable Seller Entity of such cooperation and related actions shall be paid by the Buyer or a Buyer Designee. The Seller shall (and shall cause the applicable Seller Entity to) promptly pay to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee when received all monies received by the Seller Entities under such Non-Assignable Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder and the Buyer or a Buyer Designee shall indemnify and promptly pay the Seller for all reasonably incurred liabilities of the Seller Entities associated with such Non-Assignable Asset.

(c)    For so long as the Seller Entities hold any Non-Assignable Assets and provide to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee any claims, rights and benefits of any such Non-Assignable Assets pursuant to an arrangement described in the foregoing Section 2.6(a) and Section 2.6(b), the Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and such Seller Entities and their respective Affiliates from and against all Losses incurred or asserted as a result of the Seller’s or any such Affiliate’s or their respective Affiliate’s post-Closing direct or indirect ownership, management or operation of any such Non-Assignable Asset (only to the extent that such Losses relate to the Business and are not Excluded Liabilities); provided, however, that none of the Buyer, any Buyer Designee or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to indemnify

any Seller Entity of their respective Affiliates to the extent such party seeking indemnification under this Section 2.6(c) has committed gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any transfer or assignment to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee of any Transferred Asset that shall require consent as described above in the foregoing Section 2.6(a) and Section 2.6(b) shall be made subject to such consent being obtained.

Section 2.7    Closing Consideration. In consideration for the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Transferred Assets and the Acquired Entity Equity Interests to the Buyer and the Buyer Designees, at the Closing, the Buyer and the Buyer Designees shall (a) pay to the Seller on behalf of the Seller Entities, by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by the Seller to the Buyer at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, an aggregate amount equal to the Estimated Purchase Price in immediately available funds in United States dollars and (b) assume the Assumed Liabilities.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in

this Agreement, any income Tax assets or liabilities (whether current or deferred) of the Acquired Entities and the Seller Entities shall be excluded from current assets and current liabilities and shall not be included in the calculation of Estimated Net Working Capital, Closing Net Working Capital or any component thereof.

To the extent any actions following the Closing with respect to the accounting books and records of the Seller on which the Final Closing Statement and the foregoing calculations are to be based are not consistent with the Applicable Accounting Principles, such changes shall not be taken into account in preparing the Final Closing Statement or calculating amounts reflected thereon. In no event shall any item included in the calculation of Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, or Closing Net Working Capital be counted more than once for the purposes hereof.

(c)    The Final Closing Statement shall become final and binding on the 60^th day following delivery thereof, unless prior to the end of such period, the Seller delivers to the Buyer written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) specifying the nature and amount of any dispute as to the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash, as set forth in the Final Closing Statement. The Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts of Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash not specifically referenced in the Notice of Disagreement, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review in accordance with Section 2.9(d).

(d)    During the 30-day period following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement by the Seller to the Buyer, the parties shall seek to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash as specified therein. Any disputed items resolved in writing between the Buyer and the Seller within such 30-day period shall be final and binding with respect to such items, and if the Buyer and the Seller agree in writing on the resolution of any disputed item specified by the Seller in the Notice of Disagreement or the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and Closing Cash, the amounts so determined shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes hereunder. If the Buyer and the Seller have not resolved all such differences by the end of such 30-day period, the Seller and the Buyer shall submit, in writing, to an independent public accounting firm (the “Independent Accounting Firm”), their briefs detailing their views as to the correct nature and amount of each item remaining in dispute and the amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall make a written determination as to each such disputed item and the amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash. The Independent Accounting Firm shall be Deloitte or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed

in writing by the Seller and the Buyer. The Buyer and the Seller shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to it within 30-days following the submission thereof. The Independent Accounting Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in the Buyer’s and the Seller’s respective calculations of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and/or Closing Cash, that are identified as being items and amounts to which the Buyer and the Seller have been unable to agree. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to correcting mathematical errors and determining whether the items and amounts in dispute were determined in accordance with the Applicable Accounting Principles and this Agreement and the Independent Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination, including any determination as to whether the Target Net Working Capital or any estimates on the Preliminary Closing Statement are correct, adequate or sufficient. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and Closing Cash shall be based solely on written materials submitted by the Buyer and the Seller (i.e., not on independent review). Absent fraud or manifest error, the determination of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties and shall not be subject to appeal or further review. Judgment may be entered upon the written determination of the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with Section 10.9. In acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm shall function solely as an expert and not as an arbitrator.

(e)    The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm and of any enforcement of the determination thereof, shall be borne by the Buyer and the Seller in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. The fees and disbursements of the Representatives of each party incurred in connection with the preparation or review of the Final Closing Statement or any Notice of Disagreement and in connection with the resolution of any dispute pursuant to this Section 2.9, as applicable, shall be borne by such party.

(f)    The Buyer and the Seller will, and will cause the Acquired Entities (in the case of the Seller, prior to the Closing and, in the case of the Buyer, during the period from and after the date of delivery of the Final Closing Statement through the resolution of any adjustment to the Purchase Price contemplated by this Section 2.9) to afford the other party and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Business (including those of the Acquired Entities) and to any other information reasonably requested for purposes of preparing and reviewing the calculations contemplated by this Section 2.9. Each party shall authorize its accountants to disclose work papers generated by such accountants in connection with preparing and reviewing the calculations specified in this Section 2.9; provided, that such accountants shall not be obligated to make any work papers available except in accordance with such accountants’ disclosure procedures and then only after the party who is not such accountant’s client has signed an agreement relating to access to such work papers in form and substance acceptable to such accountants.

(g)    The Purchase Price shall be adjusted, upwards or downwards, as follows:

(i)    For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Net Adjustment Amount” means an amount, which may be positive or negative, equal to (A) (1) the Closing Net Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9 minus (2) the Estimated Net Working Capital, minus (B) (1) the Closing Indebtedness as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9 minus (2) the Estimated Indebtedness,

plus (C) (1) the Closing Cash as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9 minus (2) the Estimated Cash;

(ii)    If the Net Adjustment Amount is positive, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted upwards in an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount, and the Buyer shall pay the Net Adjustment Amount to the Seller; and

(iii)    If the Net Adjustment Amount is negative (in which case the “Net Adjustment Amount” for purposes of this clause (iii) shall be deemed to be equal to the absolute value of such amount), the Purchase Price shall be adjusted downwards in an amount equal to the Net Adjustment Amount, and the Seller shall pay the Net Adjustment Amount to the Buyer.

(h)    Payments in respect of Section 2.9(g) shall be made within three Business Days of final determination of the Net Adjustment Amount pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.9 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated in writing by the party entitled to such payment at least two Business Days prior to such payment date.

(i)    For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.9 is not intended to be used to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methodologies (including with respect to accruals and reserves), policies, principles, practices, procedures or classifications for purposes of calculating amounts referred to in this Section 2.9, or to adjust for any inconsistencies between the Applicable Accounting Principles, on the one hand, and GAAP, on the other.

Section 2.10    Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a)    The Buyer and the Seller Entities shall allocate the Purchase Price, Assumed Liabilities and any other amount treated as consideration for tax purposes for the Transferred Assets, the Acquired Entity Equity Interests, the Intellectual Property License Agreement and the Trademark License Agreement among the Seller Entities in accordance with Section 2.10(a) of the Disclosure Schedules (such allocation, the “Entity Allocation Schedule”).

(b)    This Section 2.10(b) shall apply to the allocation of the Purchase Price, the Assumed Liabilities and any other amount treated as consideration for Tax purposes for the Transferred Assets, the Acquired Entity Equity Interests, the Intellectual Property License Agreement and the Trademark License Agreement by the Buyer in accordance with the Entity Allocation Schedule and Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations thereunder and other similar Laws (as finally determined under this Section 2.10(b), the “Allocation”). The Buyer shall provide the Seller with a schedule containing the proposed Allocation within sixty (60) Business Days of the date on which the Final Closing Statement is finally determined. The Allocation proposed by the Buyer shall become final and binding on the parties thirty (30) Business Days after the Buyer provides such schedule to the Seller, unless the Seller objects in writing to the Buyer, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for the objection and preparing an alternative allocation. If the Seller does object pursuant to the terms of the preceding sentence, the Seller and the Buyer shall attempt to resolve the dispute within twenty (20) Business Days after written notice to the Buyer of the Seller’s objection. Any such resolution shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. Any unresolved disputes shall be promptly submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm, who shall be engaged to provide a final, binding and conclusive resolution of all such unresolved disputes within thirty (30) Business Days after such engagement in accordance with the principles set out in Section 2.9.

(c)    Each of the parties agrees, unless otherwise required by Law, to (i) prepare and timely file all Tax Returns (and all supplements thereto) in a manner consistent with the Allocation as finalized under Section 2.10(b) and (ii) act in accordance with such Allocation for all Tax purposes.

Section 2.11    Withholding. Except following the occurrence of an event described in Section 1.1445-2(b)(4)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations or with respect to the transfer of a “United States real property interest” (as defined in Code Section 897(c)) by a Seller Entity organized in a non-U.S. jurisdiction, the Buyer shall not be entitled to deduct and withhold under the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder from any amounts payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby so long as the Seller delivers the certificate described in Section 2.8(c)(vii) not later than the Closing. In addition, the Buyer shall be entitled to deduct and withhold such amounts as it is required under other provisions of applicable Law to deduct and withhold from any amounts payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. In the case of any such withholding the Buyer or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice to the Seller of such party’s intention to withhold at least 10 Business Days prior to any such withholding and each of the applicable parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any such withholding. All amounts withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with this Section 2.11 shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as being timely paid to the person with respect to which withholding was made.

Except as set forth in, or qualified by any matter set forth in the Seller’s disclosure schedules attached hereto (collectively, the “Disclosure Schedules”), the Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer, with respect to the Seller, the Seller Entities, Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Business and the Acquired Entities as follows:

The Buyer acknowledges that the Seller may, prior to the Closing Date (but not on the Closing Date itself): (i) transfer or cause to be transferred, by way of a dividend or otherwise, out of the Acquired Entities or Seller Entities, (A) all cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and other financial instruments or funds from cash pools, provided, however, that such Acquired Entities or Seller Entities shall retain a sufficient amount of cash-on-hand as may be required to operate their respective businesses (including

(a)    From the date hereof until the Closing Date, upon reasonable notice, the Seller shall afford the Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access to the properties, offices, plants and other facilities, books and records of the Seller, the other Seller Entities and the Acquired Entities relating exclusively to the Business for any reasonable purpose related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that any such access shall be conducted at the Buyer’s expense, during normal business hours, upon reasonable prior notice, under the supervision of the Seller’s personnel or designees and in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Seller and the Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Seller, the other Seller Entities or the Acquired Entities shall be required to provide access to any information to the Buyer or its Representatives if the Seller determines, in its reasonable discretion, that (i) such access would jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege, (ii) such access would contravene any Laws, fiduciary duty or binding agreement, (iii) the information to be accessed is pertinent to any litigation in which the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are engaged, (iv) the information to be accessed should not be disclosed due to its competitively sensitive nature, or (v) the information to be accessed relates to any consolidated, combined or unitary Return filed by the Seller or any Affiliate thereof or any of their respective predecessor entities.

(b)    For a period of seven years after the Closing, or, if shorter, the applicable period specified in the applicable Seller Entity’s document retention policy, the Seller shall or shall cause the Seller Entities to, retain copies of the books and records retained as of the Closing Date and not otherwise provided to the Buyer. The Seller shall or shall cause the Seller Entities to, upon reasonable prior notice, except as prohibited by Law, afford the Representatives of the Buyer reasonable access (including the right to make, at the Buyer’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to such retained books and records for a period of (i) three years after the Closing, for any purpose, and (ii) four years after the three-year anniversary of the Closing or, if shorter, the applicable period specified in the applicable Seller Entity’s document retention policy, provided, that such shorter period shall begin to run on the Closing Date, solely for the purpose of facilitating the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by the Buyer (as such claims relate to the Business). The Seller shall notify the Buyer in writing at least 30 days in advance of destroying any such retained books and records prior to the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date in order to provide the Buyer the opportunity to copy such books and records in accordance with this Section 5.2(b).

(a)    Commencing on the Closing Date, through the date that is [***] months after the Closing Date, the Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in or assist others in engaging in any activity that directly or indirectly competes with the Business anywhere

in the world (“Restricted Business”); (ii) have any interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly in any Restricted Business in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, employee, principal, agent, trustee or consultant; or (iii) cause, induce or intentionally encourage any customer, distributor, supplier, vendor, licensee, or any other Person who has or after Closing assumes a material business relationship with the Business, to terminate or modify any such actual or prospective relationship; provided, however, that the foregoing covenants shall not prohibit, or be interpreted as prohibiting, the Seller or any of its Affiliates from (A) continuing anywhere in the world the Excluded Business; or (B) owning, collectively with any of its Affiliates, up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of any class of capital stock of any Person if such stock is publicly traded, regardless of whether or not such Person is engaging in any Restricted Business, so long as the Seller and its Affiliates, and any individual who is an officer, director or employee thereof, do not participate in the management of such Person.

(b)    Nothing in Section 5.3(a) shall preclude, prohibit or restrict the Seller or any of its Affiliates from (i) designing, engineering, developing, testing, manufacturing, assembling, marketing, selling and/or servicing any products or services that directly or indirectly compete with the Business in [***] industry or markets, (ii) engaging in any manner in any (A) Existing Business Activities or (B) business activity that (x) would otherwise violate Section 5.3(a) that is acquired from any Person (an “After-Acquired Business”) or (y) is carried on by any Person that is acquired by or combined with the Seller or any of its Affiliates, in each case after the Closing Date (an “After-Acquired Company”); provided, however, that with respect to clause (B), so long as [***].

(c)    For a period of one year from the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, the Seller agrees that none of the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries either alone or in conjunction with any other Person, directly or indirectly, shall hire or solicit for employment any Transferred Employees who (i) are plant managers of manufacturing facilities of the Business, (ii) are primarily engaged in engineering or research and development activities of the Business, or (iii) has an annual base salary equal to or exceeding the relevant Jurisdiction Base Salary Threshold; provided, that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be precluded from soliciting, hiring or taking any other action with respect to any such individual (w) whose employment by the Buyer or its Affiliates ceased prior to commencement of employment discussions between the Seller or its Subsidiaries and such individual, (x) who responds to a solicitation not specifically targeted at employees of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including by a search firm or recruiting agency), (y) who initiates discussions regarding such employment without any solicitation by the Seller or its Subsidiaries in violation of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Seller and its Affiliates shall not be restricted from engaging in solicitations or advertising not targeted at any Business Employee, or (z) if such individual is employed in a jurisdiction in which such covenant would be illegal or unenforceable or would otherwise entitle such individual to receive compensation in exchange for such limitation.

(d)    For a period of one year from the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Buyer agrees that none of the Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries either alone or in conjunction with any other Person, directly or indirectly, shall hire or solicit for employment any employee of the Seller or its Subsidiaries with whom the Buyer had contact or about whom the Buyer received information in the process of evaluating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that the Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall not be precluded from soliciting, hiring or taking any other action with respect to any such individual (i) whose employment with the Seller or its Subsidiaries ceased prior to commencement of employment discussions between the Buyer or its Subsidiaries and such individual, (ii) who responds to solicitation not specifically targeted at employees of the Seller or any of its Affiliates (including by a search firm or recruiting agency), (iii) who initiates discussions regarding such employment without any solicitation by the Buyer or its Subsidiaries in violation of this Agreement; provided, further, that the Buyer and its Affiliates shall not be restricted from engaging in solicitations or advertising not targeted at any employee

of the Seller or its Subsidiaries, (iv) if such individual is employed in a jurisdiction in which such covenant would be illegal or unenforceable or would otherwise entitle such individual to receive compensation in exchange for such limitation, or (v) is transferred pursuant to the arrangements set forth in the Transition Services Agreement.

(e)    The parties agree that any remedy at Law for any breach by the other of this Section 5.3 would be inadequate, and that the other party would be entitled to injunctive relief in such a case.

(f)    The parties acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 5.3 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the other party and that they constitute a material inducement to the parties to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If any covenant contained in this Section 5.3 should be determined to exceed the time, geographic, or other limitations permitted by Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum time, geographic, or other limitations permitted by Law (but not to exceed the limitations set forth herein). The covenants contained in this Section 5.3 and each provision hereof are severable and distinct covenants and provisions. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 5.4    Alternative Transactions.

(a)    To induce the Buyer to continue to expend management time and financial resources in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Seller shall, and shall cause the Seller Entities and each of their Affiliates and Representatives to not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, assist, initiate or facilitate the making, submission or announcement of, or intentionally encourage, any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) furnish any non-public information regarding the Seller or its Affiliates or their respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities, financial condition, prospects or employees to any Person or group (other than the Buyer and its Affiliates and Representatives) in connection with an Alternative Transaction or in response to an Acquisition Proposal, (iii) engage or participate in discussions or negotiations with any Person or group with respect to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal (and the Seller shall, and shall cause the Seller Entities and their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any discussions or negotiations with any Person with respect to any Alternative Transaction), (iv) approve, endorse or recommend, or publicly propose to approve, endorse or recommend, any Alternative Transaction, (v) negotiate or enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement related to any Alternative Transaction, or (vi) release any third Person from, or waive any provision of, any confidentiality agreement related to a potential Alternative Transaction to which the Seller is a party.

The Seller shall keep the Buyer promptly informed of the status of any such inquiries, proposals, offers or requests for information regarding any Alternative Transaction or constituting an Acquisition Proposal.

Section 5.5    Notification of Certain Matters. Until the Closing, each party hereto shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any fact, change, condition, circumstance or occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event of which it is aware that will or is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII of this Agreement becoming incapable of being satisfied.

Section 5.6    Intercompany Arrangements. Immediately prior to the Closing, all intercompany balances and accounts (other than trade payables and receivables for products sold in the ordinary course, which shall remain outstanding and be settled in accordance with their respective terms) between the Seller Entities and any of their Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities), on the one hand, and the Acquired Entities, on the other hand, shall be settled or otherwise eliminated in such a manner as the Seller shall determine in its reasonable discretion (including by the Seller Entities or any of their Affiliates removing from any Acquired Entity cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and other financial instruments or funds from cash pools by means of dividends, distributions, contribution, the creation or repayment of intercompany debt, increasing or decreasing of cash pool balances or otherwise). Intercompany balances and accounts solely among any of the Acquired Entities shall not be affected by this provision. Immediately prior to the Closing, except for the Ancillary Agreements to be entered into in connection with this Agreement, all arrangements, understandings or contracts, including all obligations to provide goods, services or other benefits, between the Seller Entities or their Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities), on the one hand, and the Acquired Entities, on the other hand, shall automatically be terminated without further payment or performance and cease to have any further force and effect, such that no party thereto shall have any further obligations therefor or thereunder.

(a)    Continuity of Employment for all Business Employees.

(i)    Prior to the Closing, the Seller and the Acquired Entities, as applicable, and to the extent permissible under Law and any agreement with an Employee Representative (as defined below), shall transfer the employment of those individuals who are not Business Employees employed by any Acquired Entity out of the Acquired Entity employing such individual, or to otherwise terminate the employment of such individuals with the Acquired Entity, and the Seller shall be solely responsible for all liabilities, costs and expenses related to such actions and all liabilities, costs and expenses related to such individuals, irrespective of when such liabilities, costs and/or expenses may arise.

(ii)    To the extent applicable, the parties acknowledge the application of the European Council Directive of March 12, 2001 (2001/23/EC) (the “Directive”), relating to the safeguarding of employees’ rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of businesses and any country legislation implementing the Directive and any other similar Law (collectively, the “Transfer Regulations”). The Buyer and the Seller shall take all such actions that may be necessary or required to cause the Transfer Regulations to apply to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Buyer and the Seller shall refrain from taking any action that could cause the Transfer Regulations not to apply to such transactions. Seller shall remain responsible for all liabilities, costs, and expenses related to any Business Employee who objects or refuses to transfer to the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer (including any Acquired Entity) as required by the Transfer Regulations.

(iii)    Except for any individual set forth on Schedule 5.7(a)(iii) of the Disclosure Schedules, no later than 15 days prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, offer employment to each Business Employee not employed by an Acquired Entity, in a substantially similar geographic location, and such offer of employment shall include [***]. Business Employees who accept

such offers of employment from the Buyer are referred to herein as “Transferred Seller Entity Employees”. If required under Law or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Seller for purposes of effecting the transfer of employment from the Seller to the Buyer, and to the extent permissible under the agreements with any Employee Representative (as defined below), the Buyer shall, and the Seller shall cause the applicable Seller Entities to, enter into any tri-party, employer substitution or other similar agreements with respect to any Business Employees to effect an employer substitution under Law in a manner that implements the applicable provisions of this Agreement, in each case effective as of the Closing Date. The Seller shall, or shall cause the appropriate member of the Seller Entities to, terminate the employment of each Transferred Seller Entity Employee as of the Closing Date. The Seller shall be solely responsible for all liabilities, costs, and expenses related to such actions described herein and any transfer of employment of the Transferred Seller Entity Employees, including any liabilities that may arise in connection with any Business Employee who rejects an offer of employment from the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer or any Business Employee who objects or refuses to transfer to the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer (including any Acquired Entity) at the Closing.

(b)    At the Closing, the employment of each Business Employee employed by an Acquired Entity shall continue with the applicable Acquired Entity, as applicable, in accordance with Law (each such Business Employee, an “Acquired Entity Employee”, and the Acquired Entity Employees, together with the Transferred Seller Entity Employees, collectively, the “Transferred Employees”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyer and any Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) shall be timely reimbursed by the Seller for any liabilities, costs, or expenses, including any employee compensation or employee benefit liabilities, costs, or expenses, that transfer by operation of Law to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Acquired Entity) related to any employees who are not Business Employees.

(c)    The Buyer shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates to, provide or cause to be provided to such Transferred Employee for the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, employment in a substantially similar geographic location, and with [***]. Such employment by the Buyer or its Affiliates shall commence effective as of the Closing Date, and shall be deemed for all purposes to have occurred with no interruption or break in service.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any Business Employee who is not an Acquired Entity Employee is on long-term disability, short-term disability, or similar leave as of the Closing, then, to the extent permissible under Law and under any agreement with any Employee Representative (as defined below), such Business Employee shall remain employed by the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller. Those Business Employees who are both (i) not Acquired Entity Employees and (ii) on short-term disability, long-term disability, or similar leave as of the Closing shall not be Transferred Employees as of the Closing Date, and instead shall be provided with offers of employment from an Acquired Entity, the Buyer, or an Affiliate of the Buyer if they return to active employment within the 6 months following the Closing Date. The Buyer and any Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) shall be timely reimbursed by the Seller for any liabilities, costs, or expenses, including any employee compensation or employee benefit liabilities, costs, or expenses related to the employment of any Acquired Entity Employee who is on long-term disability, short-term disability, or similar leave as of the Closing for the period of time from the Closing until the termination of such leave.

(e)    Effective as of the Closing, the Seller or the applicable Affiliate of the Seller shall terminate the participation of each Transferred Employee and his or her eligible dependents in each Employee Plan (other than any Employee Plan (including any Non-US Employee Plan) sponsored by one of the Acquired Entities). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyer and any Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) shall not have any liability with respect to any Employee Plan (including any Non-

US Employee Plan) other than any Employee Plan (including any Non-US Employee Plan) sponsored by one of the Acquired Entities or as required by Law or the terms of any tri-party, employer substitution or other similar agreements entered into pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, subject to the provisions regarding allocation of pre-Closing liability set forth in Section 5.7(h) and Section 5.7(l) hereto or as otherwise included as Indebtedness or Net Working Capital.

(f)    The Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, undertake all provision of information and documentation to, and notice to, and consultations, discussions or negotiations with, any unions, work councils and other employee representatives which represent Business Employees (collectively, the “Employee Representatives”) to the extent required by Law in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including the drafting of all information notices required thereby. To the extent required by Law, the Buyer and its Affiliates shall cooperate with respect to the foregoing, including by providing such information and documentation as the Seller and its Affiliates or any Employee Representative may reasonably request.

(g)    Service Credit. The Buyer shall cause the Transferred Employees to receive credit for all periods of employment and/or service with the Seller and its Affiliates (including service with predecessor employers, where such credit was provided by the Seller or its Affiliates) prior to the Closing Date for purposes of eligibility and vesting including for purposes of satisfying any service requirements for early retirement under any employee benefit plan adopted by the Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to Transferred Employees.

(h)    Employee Benefits—General. The Buyer, for at least one year following the Closing Date, shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, provide the Transferred Employees with employee benefits [***]; provided, that, nothing herein shall limit the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) from transitioning the Transferred Employees to certain broad-based employee benefit plans of the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer following the Closing Date so long as such plans fulfill the obligations of the Buyer set forth in this Section 5.7. The Seller shall bear, or cause its Affiliates to bear, the expense of and responsibility for all liabilities arising from claims by the Business Employees for benefits attributable to periods prior to, on, or after the Closing Date under the Employee Plans maintained by the Seller or its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Entities); provided, however, that the Buyer shall bear, or cause its Affiliates to bear, the expense of and responsibility for all liabilities arising from claims by the Transferred Employees for benefits attributable to periods on or after the Closing Date under the benefit plans maintained by the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities). For purposes of determining whether liability for benefit claims is incurred prior to, or on or following the Closing Date, claims shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) with respect to short-term disability, long-term disability, life and accidental death and dismemberment benefits, upon the event giving rise to such benefits, and (ii) with respect to medical, dental, vision care, prescription and health-related benefits, upon provision of medical, dental, vision, prescription and health-related services, materials or supplies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except as may be specifically required by Law or by a collective bargaining agreement, the Buyer shall not be obligated to continue to provide any particular employee benefits to any Transferred Employee or to continue the employment of any Transferred Employee. For the avoidance of doubt, any claims under the Employee Plans and Non-US Employee Plans of the Acquired Entities that relate to the period prior to the Measurement Time shall be included in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital or Indebtedness, as applicable.

(i)    Defined Contribution Plans. The Buyer agrees to have in effect, or cause one of its Affiliates to have in effect, on the Closing Date, a defined contribution plan that covers Transferred Employees based in the United States, the terms of which meet the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the

Code (such plan or plans, the “Buyer Savings Plan”). Each Transferred Employee who is eligible to contribute to the Seller’s or its Affiliate’s contribution plan (the “Seller Savings Plan”) on the Closing Date shall be eligible to contribute to the Buyer Savings Plan commencing on the day after the Closing Date. The Buyer shall allow the Transferred Employees to roll over their account balances (including loan balances) from the Seller Savings Plan accrued through the Closing Date into their new accounts under the Buyer Savings Plan promptly after the Closing Date, but in no event later than 90 days after the Closing Date or in contravention of ERISA or the Code.

(j)    Welfare Benefit Plans.

(i)    Effective as of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall offer, or cause its Affiliates to offer, the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents participation in the medical plans of the Buyer or its Affiliates. With respect to other welfare benefit plans, including medical, dental, life insurance, and short- and long-term disability (all of such welfare plans, including the Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s medical plan described in the previous sentence, the “Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans”), the Buyer shall offer, or cause its Affiliates to offer, such other welfare benefit plans to the Transferred Employees as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. The Buyer shall cause all waiting periods and pre-existing condition clauses to be waived under the Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans for the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents who were participating in the welfare benefits plans and programs of the Seller and its Affiliates before the Closing Date. The Buyer shall cause the Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans to recognize any out-of-pocket medical and dental expenses incurred by each of the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents prior to the Closing Date and during the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs for purposes of determining deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums under the Buyer Welfare Benefit Plans (the Seller shall provide such information to the Buyer at or prior to the Closing).

(ii)    Effective as of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall assume all responsibilities and obligations for continuation coverage under Sections 601 et seq. of ERISA (“COBRA Obligations”) and any state or non-United States continuation coverage requirements with respect to the Transferred Employees and their beneficiaries. The Seller agrees that it shall retain responsibility for COBRA Obligations to all qualified beneficiaries of covered employees for whom a “qualifying event” under COBRA occurs prior to or on the Closing Date.

(k)    Flexible Spending Accounts. To the extent any Transferred Employee was participating in an Employee Plan that provides for qualified flexible spending accounts for medical, dental, vision or dependent care expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (any such plan, a “Seller FSA Plan”), the Buyer shall, on the Closing Date or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing Date, permit each such Transferred Employee to be eligible to participate in a Buyer Welfare Benefit Plan that provides for qualified flexible spending accounts for medical or dependent care expenses, as applicable (any such plan, a “Buyer FSA Plan”). On the Closing Date, the Seller shall transfer or cause to be transferred from the Seller FSA Plans to the Buyer FSA Plans the account balances (whether positive or negative) of such Transferred Employees, and the Buyer shall be responsible for the obligations of the Seller FSA Plans to provide benefits to the Transferred Employees with respect to such transferred account balances at or after the Closing Date, whether or not claims are incurred prior to, on or after the Closing Date. Each Transferred Employee who participated in the Seller FSA Plan shall be permitted to continue to have payroll deductions made as in effect for such Transferred Employee under the Buyer FSA Plan after the Closing Date. This Section 5.7(k) shall be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent with Rev. Rul. 2002-32.

(l)    Vacation and Leave Benefits; Bonuses and Commissions. From and after the Closing Date the Buyer shall recognize, or cause its Affiliates to recognize, and permit the Transferred Employees

to use, all of the Transferred Employees’ accrued and unused vacation days and other leave (the Seller shall provide such information to the Buyer at or prior to the Closing) to the extent such accrued vacation, holidays and leave for all Transferred Employees is included as Net Working Capital. The Buyer shall recognize, or cause its Affiliates to recognize, service by each Transferred Employee with the Seller and its Affiliates for purposes of determining entitlement to vacation or other leave under the applicable policies of the Buyer or its Affiliates. With respect to the Transferred Employees, and only to the extent taken into account as Net Working Capital, the Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities) shall honor and pay to the Transferred Employees all accrued bonuses and commissions and any other bonuses and commissions that relate to the pre-Closing period to the extent, and at such times as, such amounts become due and payable following the Closing Date.

(m)    Employee Information. Provided that the Buyer has entered into a Personal Data Transfer Agreement acceptable to the Seller, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer, within 15 days prior to Closing, to the extent permitted by Law, and again on the Closing Date, a list of each Business Employee, such Business Employee’s base salary and bonus opportunities, the Business Employee’s date of hire and the primary geographic location of his or her employment with the Seller or its Affiliates, and status with respect to the following categories: (i) active, (ii) inactive on leave of absence with reemployment rights (iii) on short-term disability under the Seller’s or its Affiliate’s short-term disability policy and (iv) whether such Business Employee is an Acquired Entity Employee or is intended to be a Transferred Seller Entity Employee.

(n)    WARN Act. The Buyer agrees to provide or cause its Affiliates to provide any required notice under the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act of 1988 (the “WARN Act”) and any similar state or non-U.S. statute, and otherwise to comply with any such statute with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Transferred Employees and occurring after the Closing Date. The Seller agrees to provide or cause its Affiliates to provide any required notice under the WARN Act, and any similar state or non-U.S. statute, and otherwise to comply with any such statute with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) or group termination or similar event affecting Business Employees and occurring on or prior to the Closing Date. Immediately prior to the Closing, the Seller shall provide the Buyer with an anonymized list of all employees of each Acquired Entity and all other Business Employees who were terminated by the Seller, an Affiliate of the Seller (other than any Acquired Entity), or any Acquired Entity within 90 days of the Closing Date.

(o)    With respect to those agreements that are assignable, the Seller and its Affiliates (excluding any Acquired Entity) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Buyer to assign to the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer on the Closing Date (to the extent not already assigned to any Acquired Entity in connection with the transfer of such Transferred Employees to the Acquired Entity) all restrictive covenant agreements by and between any Transferred Employee and the Seller or any Affiliate (other than any Acquired Entity) in place as of the Closing Date.

(p)    The Seller shall remain responsible for the payment of all nonqualified deferred compensation due to the Transferred Employees under any Employee Plan or Non-US Employee Plan.

(q)    Effective as of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall establish a replacement program to compensate Transferred Employees for [***].

(r)    The Seller and its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities) shall cooperate with the Buyer and its Affiliates to effectuate the transfer of employees as set forth in this Section 5.7 and to establish payroll and employee benefit plans and programs to effectuate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(s)    The Buyer agrees that (i) from and after the Closing Date, the Buyer and/or one of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed the employer of the Transferred Employees for purposes of any collective bargaining agreements covering any of the Transferred Employees (and the Seller shall cooperate with the Buyer to effect the same) and (ii) prior to, on or after the Closing Date, the Buyer shall, or shall cause its appropriate Subsidiary to, provide any documentation evidencing the status of the Buyer or such Subsidiary as such employer following the Closing Date to the unions representing any of the Transferred Employees under such collective bargaining agreements; provided, that, nothing herein shall result in an allocation of liability to the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) that is in excess of such liabilities allocated to the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer (including the Acquired Entities) pursuant to this Agreement.

(t)    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing herein express or implied by this Agreement (other than as set forth in Section 5.16) shall confer upon any Business Employee, or legal representative thereof, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or benefits for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever, under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 5.8    Confidentiality. Each of the parties shall hold, and shall cause its Representatives to hold, in confidence all documents and information furnished to it by or on behalf of the other party and its respective Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of the confidentiality agreement, dated July 1, 2019, between the Buyer and the Seller (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), which shall continue in full force and effect after the Closing Date in accordance with its terms. Without limiting any of the foregoing or the terms set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement, after the Closing, the Buyer shall cause the Acquired Entities to keep confidential any confidential or proprietary information (including any Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement)) about the Seller or its Affiliates, except to the extent that the Buyer can show that such information (a) is generally available to and known by the public through no fault of the Buyer, any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities after the Closing) or their respective Representatives; or (b) is lawfully acquired by the Buyer, any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities after the Closing) or their respective Representatives from and after the Closing from sources that to the Buyer’s knowledge after reasonable inquiry are not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation. If the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities after the Closing) or their respective Representatives are compelled to disclose any information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, then the Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller in writing and shall disclose, or cause its Affiliates to disclose, only that portion of such information that the Buyer is advised by its counsel in writing is legally required to be disclosed; provided, however, that the Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. If for any reason this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing Date, the Confidentiality Agreement shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

Section 5.9    Consents and Filings; Further Assurances.

(a)    Each of the parties shall use take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under Law or otherwise to consummate and

make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements as promptly as practicable, including to (i) obtain from Governmental Authorities or any other party all consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders as are necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (each, a “Governmental Approval”) and (ii) as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, or as mutually agreed by antitrust counsel of each party, filing with the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the DOJ a Notification and Report Form relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby as required by the HSR Act, as well as comparable pre-merger notification filings, forms and submissions required or deemed advisable under the Antitrust Laws in any other jurisdictions. The Buyer shall pay all filing fees and other charges for the filing under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws.

(b)    Without limiting the generality of the parties’ undertaking pursuant to Section 5.9(a), the Buyer agrees to take any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any antitrust, competition or trade regulation Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority so as to enable the parties to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements as promptly as practicable and in no event later than the Termination Date, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, (i) the sale or disposal of assets, categories of assets or businesses of the Buyer, its Affiliates or the Acquired Entities or the Transferred Assets; (ii) terminating existing relationships, contractual rights or obligations of the Buyer, its Affiliates or the Acquired Entities (including with respect to the Transferred Assets); (iii) terminating any venture or other arrangement; (iv) creating any relationship, contractual rights or obligations of the Buyer, its Affiliates or the Acquired Entities (including with respect to the Transferred Assets) or (v) effectuating any other change or restructuring of the Buyer, its Affiliates or the Acquired Entities (including with respect to the Transferred Assets) ((i)-(v), a “Detriment Action”) in order to avoid any injunction (or to effect the dissolution thereof), temporary restraining order or other order or decision in any suit or proceeding, or to delay in the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, which would otherwise have the effect of materially delaying or preventing the consummation of such transactions. In addition, the Buyer shall defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any decree, order or judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing by the Termination Date. Nothing in this agreement shall require any of the Seller Entities to agree or otherwise commit to (i) any sale, divestiture, or disposition of the Seller Entities’ assets or businesses other than the Transferred Assets or the Acquired Entities, (ii) any order, consent decree, or other contract or agreement that would, directly or indirectly, limit, amend, or otherwise impact its existing or future contractual rights, assets, conduct, or businesses other than with respect to the Transferred Assets or the Acquired Entities, or (iii) any Detriment Action that is not conditioned on the Closing.

(c)    If, following consultation between the parties, there is a disagreement between the parties about antitrust strategy, the Buyer’s decision will control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer has the sole right to control and direct antitrust strategy in connection with review by any Governmental Authority of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any action by, or negotiations with, any Governmental Authority or other Person relating to the transactions and will take the lead in all meetings, discussions and communications with any Governmental Authority relating to obtaining antitrust approval for the transactions contemplated hereby. The Buyer and the Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to:

(i)    promptly notify the other party of any substantive communication it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement and permit the other party to review in advance any proposed communication by such party to any Governmental Authority;

(ii)    not participate in any meeting or substantive discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting or discussion. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods including under the HSR Act and other Antitrust Laws, to the extent applicable; and

(iii)    subject to the Confidentiality Agreement, provide each other with copies of all substantive correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d)    The Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, take any action (including acquiring or agreeing to acquire by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquiring or agreeing to acquire any assets) that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of (i) delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of, or increasing the risk of not receiving, any required Governmental Approval, (ii) delaying, impairing or impeding the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period with respect to a Governmental Approval, (iii) increasing the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or (iv) otherwise delaying the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

(e)    CFIUS Approval.

(i)    Each of the Buyer, the Seller Entities, and the Acquired Entities shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, as promptly as practicable, CFIUS Approval.

(ii)    Without limiting the generality of Section 5.9(e)(i), as promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than 30 Business Days after the date hereof, the Buyer, the Seller Entities and Acquired Entities shall prepare, pre-file and then, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, file with CFIUS a joint voluntary notice pursuant to Section 721 of the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party shall provide CFIUS with any additional or supplemental information requested by CFIUS or its constituent agencies during the review process as promptly as practicable, and in all cases within the amount of time allowed by CFIUS.

(iii)    The Buyer shall take any and all actions necessary, proper or advisable, to obtain CFIUS Approval as soon as practicable and feasible, in accordance with the CFIUS timetable, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise taking any Detriment Action necessary to obtain CFIUS Approval. Nothing in this agreement shall require any of the Seller Entities, in connection with CFIUS Approval, to agree or otherwise commit to (A) any sale, divestiture, or disposition of the Seller Entities’ assets or businesses other than the Transferred Assets or the Acquired Entities, (B) any order, consent decree, or other contract or agreement that would, directly or indirectly, limit, amend, or otherwise impact its existing or future contractual rights, assets, conduct, or businesses other than with respect to the Transferred Assets or the Acquired Entities, or (C) any Detriment Action.

(iv)    Each of the Buyer, the Seller Entities, and the Acquired Entities shall promptly furnish to the other copies of any notices or written communications received by such party or any of its affiliates from CFIUS or any of its constituent agencies with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, unless otherwise prohibited by any Governmental Authority or Law, and each of the Buyer, the Seller Entities, and the Acquired Entities shall permit the other’s counsel to have an opportunity to review in advance, and such party shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by such party or its affiliates to CFIUS concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Buyer, the Seller Entities, and the Acquired Entities may, as such party deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive materials or information provided to the other party under this Section 5.9(e)(iv) as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the other party, and such party shall cause such outside counsel not to disclose such materials or information to any employees, officers, directors or other representatives of the Seller Entities and Acquired Entities, unless express written permission is obtained in advance from the party providing such materials and information. Each of the Buyer, the Seller Entities, and the Acquired Entities shall provide the other and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice, to participate in any substantive meetings or discussions between such party or any of its Affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and CFIUS, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.10    Release of Guarantees. The parties shall cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the release of the Seller and its Affiliates from any obligations any of them have relating to guarantees, letters of credit, performance bonds, bid bonds and other similar agreements that guarantee obligations of the Business as they relate to the period after the Closing (collectively, the “Guarantees”), including those listed on Schedule 5.10 of the Disclosure Schedules (certain of which are Guarantees provided by the Seller or an Affiliate and certain of which are Guarantees provided by a third party for the benefit of the Business). In the event any of the Guarantees are not released prior to or at the Closing, the Buyer will indemnify and hold the Seller and its Affiliates harmless for any and all payments required to be made by the Seller under, and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with, such obligations relating to such Guarantees (other than the costs set forth in the next two sentences), with respect to activities of the Business after the Closing. If any Guarantee is provided by a third party and a fee is payable to such third party in connection with the release of such Guarantee (or a fee is due upon termination of, or release from, the related credit facility or other arrangement), then the Seller shall be responsible for the payment of any such fee. Any expenses incurred in connection with the release of any Guarantee shall be borne by the Seller.

(a)    (i) if the Seller or any of its Affiliates receive any refund or other amount that is a Transferred Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to the Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Seller promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, such amount to the Buyer and (ii) if the Buyer or any of its Affiliates receive any refund or other amount that is an Excluded Asset or is otherwise properly due and owing to the Seller or any of its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Buyer promptly shall remit, or shall cause to be remitted, such amount to the Seller.

(b)    if any right, interest, property or asset, including any Excluded Asset, is found to have been transferred to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Acquired Entity) in error, either directly or indirectly (including by having Excluded Assets located in facilities that will be owned by the Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities)), the Buyer shall transfer, or shall cause its Affiliates

(including the Acquired Entities) to transfer to the Seller at the Seller’s sole cost and expense, at no cost to the Buyer, such right, property or asset as soon as practicable to the Seller Entity indicated by the Seller. If, following the Closing, any right, interest, property or asset is found to have been retained by the Seller or any other Seller Entity in error, either directly or indirectly, the Seller shall transfer, or shall cause the other Seller Entities to transfer to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee, at no cost to the Buyer or such Buyer Designee, such right, interest, property or asset as soon as practicable to the Buyer or an Affiliate (including an Acquired Entity) indicated by the Buyer.

Section 5.12    Litigation Support. In the event that and for so long as the Buyer, the Seller, any other Seller Entity, any Acquired Entity or any of their Affiliates is actively contesting or defending against an Action by a third party in connection with (a) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction relating to, in connection with or arising from the Business, the Acquired Entities, the Transferred Assets, the Excluded Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Excluded Liabilities, each party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Acquired Entities after the Closing) (and its and their officers, employees and Representatives) to, at the expense of the contesting or defending party, reasonably cooperate with such contesting or defending party and its Representatives in such contest or defenses, including making available its personnel and providing such testimony and access to its non-privileged books and records as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with such contest or defense, in each case to the extent reasonably practicable, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice and at the sole cost of the contesting or defending party (unless such party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Article VIII, in which case the costs and expenses shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party as set forth in Article VIII).

Section 5.13    Insurance.

(a)    From and after the Closing, the Acquired Entities shall cease to be insured by the Seller’s and its Affiliates’ respective current and historical insurance policies or programs and by any of their current and historical self-insured programs and, except as set forth in Section 2.2(m), none of the Buyer, the Acquired Entities or their respective Affiliates shall have any access, right, title or interest to or in any such insurance policies, programs or self-insured programs (including to all claims or rights to make claims and all rights to proceeds, including under any occurrence-based policies of the Seller and its Affiliates with respect to pre-Closing periods) to cover any assets of any of the Acquired Entities or any liability arising from the operation of the Business. The Seller and its Affiliates may, effective at or after the Closing, amend any insurance policies and ancillary arrangements in the manner they deem appropriate to give effect to this Section 5.13(b). The Buyer shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the Acquired Entities and the Business from and after the Closing.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.13(a), prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide all reasonable assistance to the Buyer to enable the Buyer to assess the insurance needs of the Business and to subscribe for such insurances effective as of Closing; provided, that neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to make any payment, provide any guarantee or enter into any agreement in providing reasonable assistance to the Buyer.

(c)    This Agreement shall not be considered an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of the Seller or any of its Affiliates in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

(d)    From the date hereof through the Closing Date, the Seller shall, and shall cause the Seller Entities and Acquired Entities to, continue to make and pursue claims under any insurance policy for any Loss that is an Assumed Liability or that negatively impacts the value of a Transferred Asset that is covered by such policies, in each case, in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Section 5.13 to the contrary, the Seller and its Affiliates may amend or terminate any insurance policy so long as the Seller provides the Buyer notice of such amendments or terminations to the extent such amendments or terminations affect the rights or obligations of the Acquired Entities.

Section 5.15    Public Announcements. On and after the date hereof and through the Closing Date, the parties shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither party shall issue any press release or make any public statement prior to obtaining the other party’s written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that no such approval shall be necessary to the extent disclosure may be required by Law or any listing agreement of any party or its Affiliates; provided, that the Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives may disclose any information concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including providing updates as to the status thereof) that it deems appropriate in its reasonable judgment, in light of the Seller’s status as a publicly owned company, including to securities analysts and institutional investors and in press interviews.

Section 5.16    Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a)    If the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall, and shall cause each of the Acquired Entities to, take any actions necessary to provide that all rights to indemnification and all limitations on liability existing in favor of any current or former directors, officers, partners, members, managers or employees of any of the Acquired Entities (or their respective predecessors), as provided in any agreement with, or the Organizational Documents of, the applicable Acquired Entities shall survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect and be honored by the Acquired Entities after the Closing in accordance with their respective terms, for a period of not less than 6 years.

(b)    In the event that any of the Acquired Entities, the Buyer or any Buyer Designee (or any of their respective successors or assigns) (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, the Buyer will or will cause its applicable Affiliate to make proper provisions so that the successors and assigns of the Acquired Entities or the Buyer or any of their Affiliates, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.16.

(a)    The parties do not intend this Agreement to transfer title to any Transferred Assets, or to constitute the assumption of any Assumed Liabilities, in any jurisdiction in which such transfer or assumption is required by Law to be made pursuant to a Local Transfer Agreement, and any such Transferred

Assets or Assumed Liabilities, as applicable, shall only be transferred or assumed by the applicable Local Transfer Agreement. The Local Transfer Agreements shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Transferred Assets, or the assumption of any Assumed Liabilities, in the applicable jurisdictions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Local Transfer Agreements shall not have any effect on the value being given or received by the Seller, the Buyer or a Buyer Designee, including the allocation of assets and liabilities as between them, all of which shall be determined solely in accordance with this Agreement.

(b)    Notwithstanding the generality of Section 5.17(a), if, and to the extent that, the provisions of a Local Transfer Agreement are inconsistent with, or (except to the extent they implement a transfer in accordance with this Agreement) additional to, the provisions of this Agreement (or do not fully give effect to the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the transfer of the Transferred Assets or the assumption of Assumed Liabilities): (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail and (ii) so far as permissible under Law of the relevant jurisdiction, the parties shall cause the provisions of the relevant Local Transfer Agreement to be adjusted, to the extent necessary to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)    No party shall, and each party shall cause its respective Affiliates not to, bring any claim against the other party or any of its Affiliates in respect of or based upon any of the Local Transfer Agreements, except to the extent necessary to enforce any transfer of the Transferred Assets or assumption of Assumed Liabilities sold or assigned to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee hereunder in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Except as referred to above, all such claims shall be brought in accordance with, and be subject to the provisions, rights and limitations set out in, this Agreement, and no party shall be entitled to recover any Losses or obtain payment, reimbursement, restitution or indemnity under or pursuant to any of the Local Transfer Agreements.

Section 5.18    Audit. Prior to Closing, the Seller shall have audited and deliver to the Buyer the Balance Sheet and the related statement of income of the Business as of the date of the Balance Sheet, together with all related notes and schedules thereto.

Section 5.19    Certain Leased Real Property. Promptly after the date hereof, the parties will cooperate to take the actions described on Annex A-5 (the “Separation Actions”) at the locations listed thereon (the “Separation Locations”) with respect to the separation of the activities relating to the Business and the other activities conducted by the Seller and its Affiliates at such locations. The parties will consult with each other regarding the most reasonable and cost-effective means to accomplish the Separation Actions, taking into account the activities conducted at each Separation Location and the anticipated duration of the relevant lease.

Section 6.1    Pre-Closing Tax Returns. The Seller, at its sole cost and expense, shall cause to be prepared and timely filed (i) all Tax Returns that are required to be filed with respect to the Acquired Entities on or prior to the Closing Date, (ii) all income Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the Acquired Entities for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (all such Tax Returns are referred to as the “Prior Period Returns”). The Seller shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes related to such Prior Period Returns. All Prior Period Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and without a change of any election or any accounting method of any Acquired Entity, except as required by Law or any change in the Business. The Seller shall not amend any Prior Period Return of an Acquired Entity without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The Buyer shall promptly make available to the Seller (and to the

Seller’s accountants and attorneys) its personnel and any and all books and records and other documents and information in its possession or control relating to the Acquired Entities reasonably requested by the Seller to prepare the Prior Period Returns.

Section 6.2    Buyer Filed Returns. Following the Closing, the Buyer shall cause to be prepared and filed all Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the Acquired Entities that are not Prior Period Returns (each a “Buyer Filed Return”). The Buyer shall prepare all Buyer Filed Returns which relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period in a manner consistent with the Acquired Entities’ past practices, except as otherwise required by Law. The Buyer shall deliver to the Seller, for the Seller’s review and comment, a draft of each Buyer Filed Return that shows an Indemnified Tax or that is an income Tax Return relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period at least 45 days prior to the applicable filing deadline of such Buyer Filed Return, together with a proposed calculation of the Indemnified Taxes shown on such Tax Return. Within 20 days following receipt thereof, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer written notice of any objection with respect to the Buyer Filed Return or the portion of such Taxes allocable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period. If the parties are unable to resolve any disputes with respect to such calculations within 5 days following delivery of the Seller’s notice of objection, such dispute shall be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution, which resolution shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the return shall not be filed by the Buyer prior to the resolution of the dispute submitted for resolution to the Independent Accounting Firm. No delay of the Buyer in providing Buyer Filed Returns for the Seller to review shall reduce or otherwise affect the obligations or liabilities of the Seller pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent the Seller is actually prejudiced by such delay, and the Seller shall not be required to make any Tax payment to the Buyer until after the submission and filing of the applicable Buyer Filed Return to the proper Governmental Authority.

Section 6.3    Straddle Period Tax Apportionment. For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period:

(a)    In the case of Taxes not imposed on a periodic basis, the amount of such Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(b)    The amount of any Taxes that are determined on a periodic basis for a Straddle Period that relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Taxes imposed on any Acquired Entity or the Buyer or any other Buyer Indemnified Party as a result of income of any Flow-Thru Entity realized prior to the Closing Date (such income being computed assuming the Flow-Thru Entity had a year that ends on the Closing Date and closed its books), such Taxes shall be treated as Taxes of the appropriate Acquired Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

Section 6.4    Tax Indemnity. Following the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify and hold the Buyer, its Affiliates and the Acquired Entities harmless from and against any Indemnified Taxes.

Section 6.5    Audits and Other Proceedings. The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller following receipt of any notice of audit or other proceeding relating to any Tax matter for which the Seller may be required to indemnify the Buyer, its Affiliates and the Acquired Entities pursuant to this Agreement (a “Tax Contest” ). No delay by the Buyer shall reduce any of the Seller’s obligations for Indemnified Taxes, except to the extent such delay actually prejudices the Seller. The Seller shall have the right to control any and all audits or other proceedings relating solely to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period). If

the Seller assumes such defense, the Seller shall diligently and in good faith keep the Buyer reasonably informed, shall allow the Buyer to participate in the defense thereof (including employing counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Seller), and shall not settle, resolve or abandon such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The Buyer shall control any and all audits or other proceedings relating to any Straddle Period. The Buyer shall diligently and in good faith keep the Seller reasonably informed regarding, shall allow the Seller to participate in the defense of (including employing counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Buyer), and shall not settle, resolve or abandon such Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Seller (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

Section 6.6    Tax Benefits.

(a)    Subject to Section 6.6(c), following the Closing, the Buyer shall pay to the Seller the amount of any cash refund or realized Tax credit realized by the Buyer, its Affiliates or any Acquired Entity with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (net of any reasonable third-party out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Acquired Entities in obtaining such refund or credit or any Taxes incurred on a distribution of such refund to the Buyer). For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer acknowledges that the amounts which are for the benefit of the Seller pursuant to in this Section 6.6 constitute Excluded Assets.

(b)    If, subsequent to the payment by the Buyer to the Seller of any refund, credit, or offset, there shall be (i) a determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or an analogous provision of state and local Law) which results in a disallowance or a reduction of the refund, credit, or offset so carried forward or (ii) a reduction or disallowance of any Tax refund or credit or offset, the Seller shall repay to the Buyer any amount which would not have been payable to the Seller pursuant to this Section 6.6(b) had the amount of the payment been determined in light of such determination.

(c)    Nothing in this Section 6.6 shall require that the Buyer make any payment with respect to any refund for a Tax (and such refunds shall be for the benefit of the Buyer and the Acquired Entities) that is with respect to (i) any refund of Tax that is the result of the carrying back of any net operating loss or other Tax attribute or Tax credit incurred in any Tax period (or portion of any Straddle Period) beginning after the Closing Date, (ii) any refund for Tax that is reflected as a current asset (or offset to a current liability) on the Closing Net Working Capital, or (iii) any refund for Tax that gives rise to a payment obligation by any Acquired Entity to any Person (other than an Acquired Entity or any Affiliate thereof) under Law or pursuant to a provision of a contract or other agreement entered (or assumed) by any Acquired Entity on or prior to the Closing Date.

Section 6.7    Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer may not file any amended Tax Return relating to Taxes for which the Seller may be required to indemnify the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Seller (which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed).

Section 6.8    Transfer Taxes. Except for any such amounts that can be offset by the Buyer or the Seller against other Taxes payable by such party (in which case such amounts will be borne solely by such party), the Buyer and the Seller shall each be liable for fifty percent (50%) of all sales taxes, transfer taxes, stamp taxes, conveyance taxes, value-added taxes, mortgage taxes, intangible taxes, documentary recording taxes, license and registration fees, and recording fees imposed by any Governmental Authority upon the transfer of the Transferred Assets hereunder and the filing of any instruments (“Transfer Taxes”). The party required under Law shall prepare all Transfer Tax Returns in connection therewith and the other party shall join in the filing of any such Returns to the extent required by Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Transfer

Taxes shall not include income or capital gains tax imposed on any Seller Entity as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Taxes required to be paid pursuant to Announcement 7. The Seller and the Buyer shall take all reasonable steps to minimize any Transfer Taxes or to obtain any Tax credit, refund or going concern or other exemption, and neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall take any action that will prevent the other from obtaining any such credit, refund or exemption.

Section 6.9    PRC Taxes. The Seller shall, and shall cause any relevant Seller Entity to, comply with any required Tax reporting, filing or payment obligations under Announcement 7 (as well as any voluntary reporting requirements thereunder), and shall give the Buyer a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any reporting to be made with respect thereto to the relevant Tax authority of the PRC. For the avoidance of doubt, any Tax liability imposed on the Buyer or any of its Affiliates under Announcement 7 shall be an Indemnified Tax.

Section 6.10    Limitations. None of the parties shall make or change any Tax election that is effective for Tax purposes on or before the Closing Date, including any Tax election under Treasury Regulations Section  ###-###-####-3 (or any similar election under applicable state, local, or foreign Law), that is effective on or prior to the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Buyer or Seller, as applicable (which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (a) Seller and its Affiliates will prepare and file or will cause to be prepared and filed all Consolidated Tax Returns and shall pay all Taxes shown as due thereon to the extent relating to the Transferred Assets or the Acquired Entities (other than Taxes that are being contested in good faith through appropriate proceedings), (b) none of the Seller or any of its Affiliates will be required to provide any Person with any Consolidated Tax Return or copy of any Consolidated Tax Return, including supporting Tax work papers, (c) Seller and its Affiliates will have the exclusive right to control in all respects any Tax claim and any other inquiry, audit, investigation, assessment or other proceeding with respect to any Consolidated Tax Return and (d) none of the Buyer or its Affiliates shall initiate any voluntary contact with any Governmental Authority in matters relating to Taxes of the Seller or its Affiliates without the prior written consent of the Seller (which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed).

The Buyer and the Seller shall each and shall each cause their respective Affiliates (including, in the case of the Buyer after the Closing, the Acquired Entities), and its and their respective successors and permitted assigns, to cooperate as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, any Tax audits, Tax proceedings or other Tax-related claims. Such cooperation will include providing records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such matters, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explaining any materials provided pursuant to this Section 6.11. The Buyer and the Acquired Entities, on the one hand, and the Seller and each of the Seller Entities, on the other hand, agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Acquired Entities relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date for a period of seven years and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Governmental Authority. The Buyer and the Seller and their respective Affiliates shall provide certificates or forms, and timely execute any Tax Return, that are necessary or appropriate to establish an exemption for (or reduction in) any Transfer Tax.

Section 7.1    General Conditions. The respective obligations of the Buyer and the Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the fulfillment, at or prior to the Closing, of each of the following conditions, any of which may, to the extent permitted by Law, be waived in writing by either party in its sole discretion (provided, that such waiver shall only be effective as to the obligations of such party):

(a)    No Governmental Authority shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any Law (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent), including any Law that may be administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Controls, that is then in effect and that enjoins, restrains, makes illegal or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The Buyer shall have performed in all material respects all obligations and agreements and complied in all material respects with all covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it prior to or at the Closing. The Seller shall have received from the Buyer a certificate to the effect set forth in the preceding sentences, signed by a duly authorized officer thereof.

Section 7.4    Frustration of Closing Conditions. No party may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Article VII to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s failure to use efforts to cause the Closing to occur as required by Section 5.9.

Section 8.1    Survival of Representations, Warranties, Covenants and Other Agreements. The respective representations and warranties of the Seller and the Buyer contained in this Agreement and any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the Closing for a period of 18 months after the Closing Date; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer Fundamental Representations, the Seller Fundamental Representations and those representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in Section 3.9 (Employee Plans), Section 3.10 (Labor and Employment), Section 3.13(f) (Exclusively Licensed Patents), Section 3.15 (Environmental Matters), and Section 3.22(a) (Title to Assets) shall, in each case, survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, plus 60 days.

Unless otherwise indicated, the covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall not survive the Closing unless such covenants and agreements expressly contemplate performance after the Closing, in which case they shall survive until they have been performed or satisfied.

Section 8.2    Indemnification by the Seller. From and after the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer, its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any losses, liabilities, claims, fines, deficiencies, damages, payments (including those arising out of any settlement or judgment), interest, obligations, penalties, fees, Taxes and out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind (including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements) (hereinafter collectively, “Losses”) to the extent arising out of or resulting from:

(a)    any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Seller contained in Article III to the extent such breach exists as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date;

(b)    any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in Article V or Article VI;

(e)    Any Seller Environmental Liabilities as they relate to the Acquired Entities;

(f)    Any Transaction Expenses;

(g)    to the extent not paid by the Seller Entities, or by the Acquired Entities prior to the Closing or otherwise, any facility restructuring actions taken by the Seller Entities or the Acquired Entities prior to the Closing; and

(h)     any Excluded Liability except for those described in Section 2.5(g); and

Section 8.3    Indemnification by the Buyer. From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller, its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses to the extent arising out of or resulting from:

(a)    any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer contained in Article IV to the extent such breach exists as of the date hereof or as of the Closing Date;

(b)    any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Buyer or a Buyer Designee contained in Article V or Article VI requiring performance by the Buyer or a Buyer Designee; and

(c)    any Assumed Liability.

Section 8.4    Procedures.

(a)    In order for a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party (the “Indemnified Party”) to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this Agreement as a result of a Loss or a claim or demand made by any Person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall deliver notice thereof to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”)

as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by such Indemnified Party of written notice of the Third Party Claim, describing (to the extent such information is available to the Indemnified Party) in reasonable detail (i) the facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification hereunder, (ii) the amount or method of computation of the amount of such claim, or if such information is not then available to the Indemnified Party, a good faith estimate of the amount of such claim, (iii) each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, to the extent known, (iv) the date such item was paid or properly accrued and (v) the nature of the breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement with respect to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled to indemnification hereunder (all of the foregoing, the “Claim Information”), and shall provide any other information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to provide such notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnifying Party shall retain control following Closing of the defense (including the right to designate legal counsel) of any Action pending as of Closing against the Seller and/or its post-closing Affiliates in connection with the matters described in Section 8.2(c).

(b)    The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of such Third Party Claim and subject to the Indemnifying Party agreeing to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim (subject to the limits set forth in this Article VIII), to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party; provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel for the Indemnified Party, there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to such Indemnified Party in connection with such defense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party’s environmental consultants or other professional advisors, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party or its environmental consultants or other professional advisors. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim, and which releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim, provided, that such settlement, compromise or discharge (i) does not impose any equitable or other non-monetary remedies or obligations on the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates and (ii) does not involve a finding or admission of wrongdoing or any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, or offer to settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c)    In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim containing the Claim Information (to the extent such information is available to the Indemnified Party) as soon as reasonably practicable to the Indemnifying Party, and shall provide any other information with respect thereto as the

Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters. Such assistance and cooperation shall include providing reasonable access to and copies of information, records and documents relating to such matters, furnishing employees to assist in the investigation, defense and resolution of such matters (such access to employees shall be during normal business hours, upon reasonable prior notice, under the supervision of the Indemnified Party’s personnel or designees and in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Indemnified Party) and providing other reasonable assistance with respect to such matters. The failure to provide notice or to follow the procedural provisions set forth herein, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure.

(d)    The Seller shall have the right, upon written notice to the Buyer, to assume operational control for the investigation and remediation of or response to any Seller Environmental Liability only to the extent related to a Contamination Liability as such term is defined herein, including control over the defense of and in any proceeding relating to, any related investigation and remedial measure. The Buyer shall have the right to control all actions for any Seller Environmental Liability related to an Environmental Compliance Liability as such term is defined herein, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.4(d) and Section 8.5(b)(vii). The Seller’s obligations under this Article VIII with respect to all Seller Environmental Liabilities shall be limited to costs and damages reasonably required to comply with Environmental Laws using cost-effective and commercially reasonable methods to the extent permitted under Environmental Laws, including where appropriate for a Contamination Liability, the use of risk assessments, institutional controls, and deed restrictions consistent with the affected Real Property’s use as an industrial facility and such Environmental Laws, provided, that any institutional control, deed restriction or any other restriction or limitation on Real Property that materially affects the Buyer’s operations shall be approved in advance by the Buyer, whose approval will not be unreasonably withheld. For each Contamination Liability for which Seller has assumed operational control, the Seller shall provide the Buyer with the opportunity and a reasonable time period to review in advance and comment on any proposed remedial action plan or regulatory submission related to any indemnified matter and such comments shall be incorporated to the extent they are consistent with Environmental Laws. The Seller shall keep the Buyer apprised of all material developments, including any delays, in Seller’s investigation, remediation of or response to any Contamination Liability.

(e)    In performing its obligations with respect to any Contamination Liability, the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer and (i) timely complete the environmental investigation and any response activities, including all cleanup and monitoring, required under Environmental Law and use its best efforts to obtain receipt of a no further action letter or other regulatory closure from the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to the applicable Seller Environmental Liability (“Regulatory Closure”) based upon the applicable Real Property’s current use as an industrial facility, and (ii) ensure that the completed remedy will not materially and adversely affect the value or operation of the applicable Real Property in respect of its current uses.

(f)    Upon the Seller’s reasonable request, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist and cooperate with the Seller in connection with any investigation or remediation of or defense of any Action arising from a Contamination Liability for which the Seller has assumed operational control, including by providing reasonable access to the applicable Real Property in order to investigate or remediate contamination at such Real Property, provided, that the parties coordinate such access in good faith to accommodate the reasonable needs of the Buyer’s operations.

Section 8.5    Additional Indemnification Provisions.

(a)    The amount of any and all Losses under this Article VIII shall be reduced by an amount equal to: (i) any Tax benefit actually realized through a reduction in Taxes otherwise payable in the taxable period of the Loss and the two following taxable periods by any party seeking indemnification hereunder arising in connection with the accrual, incurrence or payment of any such Losses (but increased by an amount equal to any tax imposed because of the receipt by the Indemnified Party of such indemnity payments) and (ii) any insurance, indemnity, reimbursement arrangement, contract or other proceeds that have been recovered by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification (less any costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with recovery of such insurance proceeds and any related increases in insurance premiums) (each, an “Alternative Recovery”). The Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all such Alternative Recoveries with respect to any Loss to the same extent as such Indemnified Party would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder. Each party hereby waives, to the extent permitted under its applicable insurance policies, any subrogation rights that its insurer may have with respect to any indemnifiable Losses. In the event that the Indemnified Party receives recovery of any amount pursuant to an Alternative Recovery for which it has already been indemnified by the Indemnifying Party hereunder, the Indemnified Party will as soon as reasonably practicable refund an equal amount to the Indemnifying Party.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement;

(i)    absent Fraud, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.2(a) shall be $330 million; provided, that such limitation with respect to Losses arising out of or resulting from a breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation shall be $660 million;

(ii)    absent Fraud, the Seller shall not be liable to any Buyer Indemnified Party for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(a), other than a claim for indemnification arising out of or resulting from a breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation or a breach of the representation set out in Section 3.13(f), unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller equals or exceeds $20 million (the “Basket Amount”), in which case the Seller shall be liable for the entire Loss (not just the Losses in excess of the Basket Amount); provided, however, that no Losses, other than Losses arising out of or resulting from a breach of a Seller Fundamental Representation, may be claimed by any Buyer Indemnified Party or shall be reimbursable by the Seller or shall be included in calculating the aggregate Losses for purposes of this clause other than Losses in excess of $165,000 resulting from any single claim or aggregated claims arising out of the same facts, events or circumstances;

(iii)    the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss to the extent that a specific, identifiable accrual or reserve for the amount of such Loss was reflected in the Financial Statements;

(iv)    the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss to the extent that the Buyer received a benefit from the reflection of such matter in the calculation of the adjustment of the Purchase Price, if any, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9;

(v)    no party hereto shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect damages, including business interruption, diminution of value, loss of future revenue, profits or income, or loss of business reputation or

opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, except to the extent payable to a third party;

(vi)    in determining whether a breach of a representation or warranty hereunder has occurred, or calculating the amount of Losses indemnifiable hereunder, any qualifications as to materiality (including the word “material”), “Material Adverse Effect”, or other similar materiality qualifications included in any representation or warranty hereunder shall be disregarded;

(vii)    the Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Loss to the extent arising out of or resulting from a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.15 or a Seller Environmental Liability if and to the extent that such Loss arises out of or results from:

(A)    a change in the use of any Real Property from use as an industrial manufacturing facility to a nonindustrial use, as such use is classified under the Environmental Laws applicable to the relevant Real Property;

(B)    any invasive investigations, sampling or monitoring of any Real Property from and after Closing (including “Phase 2” soil and groundwater testing) unless (i) required by Environmental Law, an Environmental Permit, a Governmental Authority, or an order, judgment or an arbitral award pursuant to Environmental Laws; (ii) reasonably necessary to investigate or abate an imminent hazard as defined by Environmental Law; (iii) reasonably necessary to respond to a third-party claim if such invasive investigation, sampling or monitoring is recommended by a licensed environmental consultant based upon prior sampling that indicates a release has occurred on the Real Property in question; (iv) conducted as part of a bona fide construction, demolition, de-commissioning, closure or necessary repair of subsurface utilities or features, in all cases, if soil or groundwater testing is required pursuant to any Environmental Law in connection with such activity or required to characterize and dispose of Hazardous Substances offsite; or (v) required by the terms of an applicable lease;

(C)    the new release of Hazardous Substances by any Person unrelated to the Seller or its Affiliates after Closing, provided, that the migration or degradation of Hazardous Substances existing on, under or about the Real Property as of the Closing Date shall not be considered a new release; and

(D)    passage of, or any change in, any Law after the Closing Date; provided, that if a claim relates to non-compliance with Environmental Laws on or prior to the Closing Date, the remediation shall be measured relative to compliance with Environmental Laws at the time of the remediation, even if such Environmental Law may have changed since the Closing Date.

(viii)    upon receipt of Regulatory Closure at any Real Property, the Seller shall have no further obligation or responsibility under this Agreement with respect to related Seller Environmental Liabilities unless a Governmental Authority subsequently requires additional remediation due to contamination at the applicable Real Property which predates Closing.

Section 8.6    Tax Matters. Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to indemnification for any and all Tax matters and the conduct of any Tax Contest shall be governed by Article VI; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 8.5(b)(vi) shall apply in determining whether there has been a breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 3.14 or, to the extent related to Taxes, Section 3.9.

Section 8.7    Assignment of Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives any payment from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses and the Indemnified Party could have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s direction and expense, take all reasonable actions to seek to recover such claim from such Potential Contributor. Any payment received in respect of such claim against the Potential Contributor (whether by the Indemnifying Party or the relevant Indemnified Party as provided in the immediately preceding sentence) shall be distributed, (a) first, to the Indemnified Party in the amount of any deductible or similar amount required to be paid by the Indemnified Party prior to the Indemnifying Party being required to make any payment to the Indemnified Party plus, in the case of any claim by a Indemnified Party as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim, (b) second, to the Indemnifying Party in an amount equal to the aggregate payments made by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim, plus the costs and expenses incurred in investigating, prosecuting, defending or otherwise addressing such claim and (c) the balance, if any, to the Indemnified Party.

Section 8.8    Exclusivity of Remedies.

(a)    Effective as of the Closing, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement or in the case of Fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement, each party hereto, on behalf of itself and the other Indemnified Parties, waives any rights and claims any Indemnified Party may have against the other party, any of its Affiliates, and any of its or their respective Representatives (collectively, “Released Parties”), regardless of the Law or legal theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, whether at law, in equity, contract, tort or otherwise, relating to the Business and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The rights and claims waived by each party on behalf of itself and the other Indemnified Parties, include, without limitation, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Law (including, inter alia, any Environmental Law), claims for breach of contract, for breach (negligent or otherwise) of representation or warranty, and claims for breach of duty. After the Closing, this Article VIII will provide the exclusive remedy against any of the Released Parties for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other claims arising out of or relating to (directly or indirectly) this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby, other than with respect to remedies against the Released Parties in cases involving Fraud or Willful Breach of this Agreement.

(b)    The parties agree that the provisions in this Agreement relating to indemnification, and the limits imposed on the remedies with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby were specifically bargained for between sophisticated parties and were specifically taken into account in the determination of the amounts to be paid to the Seller hereunder.

Section 8.9    No Right of Set-Off. The Buyer for itself and for the Buyer Indemnified Parties and their successors and assigns hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any rights of set-off, netting, offset, recoupment, or similar rights that the Buyer or any of such Persons has or may have with respect to any other payments to be made by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other document or instrument delivered by the Buyer in connection herewith.

Section 8.10    Treatment of Indemnity Payments. Following the Closing, any payment made pursuant to Article VI or this Article VIII shall be treated by the parties, to the extent permitted by Law, for

federal income Tax and other applicable Tax purposes, as an adjustment to the cash proceeds received by the Seller in the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

(a)    by mutual written consent of the Buyer and the Seller;

(b)    by the Seller, if the Seller is not then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3 and the Buyer breaches or fails to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2, (ii) cannot be or has not been cured by the earlier of (A) the Termination Date and (B) 30 days following delivery of written notice of such breach or failure to perform and (iii) has not been waived by the Seller;

(c)    by the Buyer, if the Buyer is not then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2 and the Seller breaches or fails to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement and such breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3, (ii) cannot be or has not been cured by the earlier of (A) the Termination Date and (B) 30 days following delivery of written notice of such breach or failure to perform and (iii) has not been waived by the Buyer;

(d)    by either the Seller or the Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred by 5:00 pm Eastern Time on the Termination Date; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(d) shall not be available if the failure of the party so requesting termination to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date. The “Termination Date” shall be July 21, 2021 (the “Initial Termination Date”); provided, that (i) if on the Initial Termination Date, all the conditions to Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(b), shall have been satisfied or waived (or, in the case of any conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, shall be capable of being satisfied), then the Initial Termination Date may be extended by the Buyer to October 21, 2021 (the “First Extended Termination Date”) upon written notice by the Buyer to the Seller no later than 5:00 pm Eastern Time on July 16, 2021, and (ii) if on the First Extended Termination Date all the conditions to Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(b), shall have been satisfied or waived (or, in the case of any conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, shall be capable of being satisfied), then the First Extended Termination Date may be extended by the Buyer to January 21, 2022 (the “Second Extended Termination Date”) upon written notice by the Buyer to the Seller no later than 5:00 pm Eastern Time on October 18, 2021. As used in this Agreement, the term “Termination Date” shall mean the Initial Termination Date, unless the Initial Termination Date has been extended to the First Extended Termination Date or Second Extended Termination Date pursuant to the foregoing, in which case, the term “Termination Date” shall mean the date to which the Termination Date has been extended, as applicable; or

(e)    by either the Seller or the Buyer in the event that any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have

become final and nonappealable; provided, that the party so requesting termination shall have complied with Section 5.9 and provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(e) shall not be available to any party whose breach of or failure to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or obligations under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, such order, decree, ruling or other action.

Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1 (other than Section 9.1(a)) shall be effected by delivery of written notice of such termination by the terminating party to the other party.

Section 9.2    Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of either party except (a) for the provisions of Section 3.19 and Section 4.5 relating to broker’s fees and finder’s fees, Section 5.8 relating to confidentiality, Section 5.15 relating to public announcements, this Section 9.2 and Article X and (b) that nothing herein shall relieve either party from liability for Fraud in the making of its respective representations and warranties expressly set forth in this Agreement or for any Willful Breach of this Agreement.

Section 10.1    Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein or therein, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with or related to this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not such transactions are consummated; provided, however, that the Buyer shall pay or cause the Acquired Entities to pay any Transaction Expenses that remain unpaid as of the Closing. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the obligation of each party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by the other.

Section 10.2    Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented in any manner, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, except by an instrument in writing specifically designated as an amendment hereto, signed on behalf of each party.

Section 10.3    Waiver; Extension. At any time prior to the Closing, the Seller, on the one hand and the Buyer, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party contained herein, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document, certificate or writing delivered by such party pursuant hereto, or (c) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of any party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written agreement signed on behalf of such party. No failure or delay of either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Any agreement on the part of either party to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer on behalf of such party.

Section 10.4    Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or if by e‑mail, upon written confirmation of receipt by e-mail or otherwise, (b) on the first Business Day following the date of dispatch if delivered utilizing a next-day service by a recognized next-day courier or (c) on the earlier of confirmed
