Parent in writing and the Seller Parent shall or shall cause its respective Affiliate, if requested by the Purchaser, at its sole cost (including any Taxes except where otherwise payable by the Purchaser under this agreement or resulting from the nomination under Section 8.8.4):

To the extent that the Out-of-Scope Asset has been reflected with a positive value in the Net Working Capital, the Seller Parent shall compensate the Purchaser for the transfer of the Out-of-Scope Asset to be implemented pursuant to Section 8.8.2 in an amount equal to the amount by which the Out-of-Scope Asset has been reflected in the Net Working Capital.

8.9Transfer of Title. The Seller Parent shall cause the Asset Sellers to transfer title or the expectancy rights (Anwartschaftsrecht), as the case may be, to the Sold Assets with in rem effect (mit dinglicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date to the Purchaser or the relevant Asset Purchaser by virtue of the Asset Transfer Agreements. The Purchaser hereby undertakes in respect of any Sold Assets for which the Purchaser itself is the Asset Purchaser to acquire and accept the transfer, and to cause the Asset Purchasers to acquire and accept the transfer, of title, or the expectancy rights (Anwartschaftsrecht) (as the case may), to the other Sold Assets with in rem effect (mit dinglicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date by virtue of the Asset Transfer Agreements.

8.10Erroneous Payments. If after the Closing Date either the Seller Parent or any of its Affiliates (in particular any Asset Seller), as the case may be, receives any payment from a third party in respect of a Sold Asset or the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (in particular any Asset Purchaser) receives any payments from a third party in respect of an Excluded Assets (or, in each case, would have received any such payment, but for any set-off, counterclaim or credit or similar action having been effected against that payment, as against the Seller Parent (if payment should have been received by the Purchaser or its Affiliates) or as against the relevant Purchaser or its Affiliates (if payment should have been received by the Seller Parent or its Affiliates)), as the case may be, which should, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement have been received by the other Party or its Affiliates, then the Party having received such amount shall forward any such amount which it has erroneously received to the other Party.

9.1Assumed Liabilities. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to assume or to cause an Asset Purchaser to assume under full discharge of the Seller Parent and Asset Sellers (mit schuldbefreiender Wirkung), in each case except as otherwise provided in Sections 9.2 through 9.5 below and with economic effect (mit wirtschaftlicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date, all obligations and liabilities which have been or will be incurred by the Seller Parent or an Asset Seller up to and including the Closing Date and (i) which relate exclusively to the KaVo Dental Business or any Sold Assets and (ii) which are outstanding or pending on the Closing (including intragroup and intracompany liabilities), irrespective of whether such obligations or liabilities are due or not due, absolute or contingent, conditional or unconditional or whether they are known or unknown, unless they constitute Excluded Liabilities (as defined in Section 9.2) (the "Assumed Liabilities"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Assumed Liabilities shall in particular include:

9.1.1accounts payable arising from deliveries and services received (Verbindlichkeiten aus Lieferungen und Leistungen) exclusively relating to the KaVo Dental Business, and if not exclusively relating to the KaVo Dental Business, the portion of such accounts payable exclusively relating to the KaVo Dental Business up to and including the Closing Date (including intragroup and intracompany trade payables and/or liabilities);

The assumption of Assumed Liabilities by an Asset Purchaser under an Asset Transfer Agreement shall be without prejudice to the joint and several liability (gesamtschuldnerische Haftung) of the Purchaser and the respective Asset Purchaser for such Asset Purchaser's liabilities pursuant to Section 7.2.

9.4Third-party Consent. If and to the extent that the assumption of Assumed Liabilities with full discharge of the original debtor requires the consent of the respective third-party creditor, the Purchaser shall use, or shall cause the respective Asset Purchaser to use, best

efforts to obtain such consent, whereby external costs and expenses for third-party advisors assisting with obtaining such consents if and to the extent reasonably occurred and documented to achieve the consent of the third-party-creditor shall be borne equally by the Seller Parent and the Purchaser, provided that the aggregate of all costs and expenses to be borne by the Seller Parent shall not exceed USD 50,000.00. The Parties shall keep each other reasonably informed about these efforts and about the status of the discussions with the respective third-party creditor. For as long as the consent to an assumption of an Assumed Liability is not obtained, the Purchaser agrees to assume the Assumed Liabilities, as an additional debtor (Schuldbeitritt) with economic effect (mit wirtschaftlicher Wirkung) and in rem effect (mit dinglicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parent, the Seller Parent's Affiliates and Asset Sellers from such Assumed Liabilities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any liabilities and obligations resulting from such Assumed Liabilities, in particular interest accruing thereon). Without prejudice to the foregoing, Seller Parent or the respective Asset Seller shall be entitled, but for the avoidance of doubt not be obliged, to fulfill the respective Assumed Liability for the account of the respective Asset Purchaser.

9.5Transferred Litigation. To the extent any of the Assumed Liabilities is subject to an ongoing litigation ("Transferred Litigation"), in particular the liabilities relating to the litigations listed in Schedule 19.16, the Purchaser shall use best efforts to effect the replacement of the Seller Parent or its relevant Affiliate as party in each Transferred Litigation with applicable Law ("Replacement of Party").

The Seller Parent, the Seller Parent's Affiliates and certain third parties (i) have, prior to the Signing Date, provided securities in favor of the KaVo Dental Business, such as bank guarantees, sureties, comfort letters and performance and warranty bonds attached hereto as Exhibit 9.6 and (ii) may, between the Signing Date and the Closing Date, provide such securities in favor of the KaVo Dental Business if so required in the ordinary course of business (the "Assumed Securities").

9.6.1The Purchaser and the Seller Parent shall use reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that the Assumed Securities are replaced with guarantees of the Purchaser thereby fully releasing the Seller Parent and the Seller Parent's Affiliates from any liabilities thereunder and that any deeds or instruments evidencing the Assumed Securities shall be returned to the Seller Parent, in each case by the Scheduled Closing Date; and

international bank to the Seller Parent payable on first demand and in an appropriate amount, but in no event exceeding an amount of USD 500,000.00 in the aggregate, in order to secure any amounts drawn by third parties under the Assumed Securities.

9.7Erroneous Payments. If after the Closing Date either the Seller Parent or any other Asset Seller, as the case may be, erroneously makes any payments to satisfy any Assumed Liabilities which should, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement have been paid by the Purchaser or an Asset Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller Parent or the Asset Seller to the extent the respective Assumed Liability is reduced as a result of such payment, as the case may be, any such amounts which it has erroneously paid. If after the Closing Date either the Purchaser or any other Asset Purchaser, as the case may be, erroneously makes any payments to satisfy any liability of Seller Parent or any Asset Seller which should, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement have been paid by the Seller Parent or an Asset Seller, then the Seller Parent shall reimburse the Purchaser or the Asset Purchaser, as the case may be, any such amounts which it has erroneously paid to the extent the respective liability of Seller Parent or any Asset Seller is reduced as a result of such payment.

10.1Assumed Agreements. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Purchaser agrees to assume or to cause an Asset Purchaser to assume under full discharge of the Seller Parent and Asset Sellers (im Wege der Vertragsübernahme mit schuldbefreiender Wirkung), in each case except as otherwise provided in Sections 10.2 through 10.9 below and with economic effect (mit wirtschaftlicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date all contracts, agreements, outstanding orders and other contractual offers or contractual relationships entered into, made or received by an Asset Seller with, from or to any third party (including the Seller Parent or the Seller Parent's Affiliates) which exist on the Closing Date and relate exclusively to the KaVo Dental Business or the Business Employees, whether made in written, electronic or oral form and are not solely entered into or existing with any of the Sold Companies (the "Assumed Agreements"). Agreements relating to the Business Employees are exclusively addressed in Section 11.

10.4Lists of Agreements. Lists of the Assumed Agreements as of the Signing Date (or, to the extent a different preparation date is mentioned for a list, as of the date stated for such list in the Exhibit) are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4. The Seller Parent shall provide to the Purchaser lists of the Assumed Agreements updated as per the Closing Date within thirty (30) Business Days after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Assumed Agreements which have not been included in such Exhibit 10.4 or the updated version of such Exhibit although they constitute Assumed Agreements under this Section 10 shall be deemed part of the Purchaser's obligation to assume such contracts together with the other Assumed Agreements under this Agreement; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be obligated to assume any agreement that has not been notified to Purchaser prior to the expiry of twelve (12) months from the Closing Date.

10.5Changes of Assumed Agreements. The Assumed Agreements shall include all agreements, contracts, outstanding orders and other contractual offers or contractual relationships listed in Section 10.2 and Section 10.3, which will be newly concluded by an Asset Seller up to and including the Closing Date. If any agreement that qualifies as an Assumed Agreement was entered into in breach of the Interim Covenants (as defined in Section 20.1.2) such breach shall not affect such qualification and any rights of the Purchaser resulting from the breach of the Interim Covenants shall not be affected by the assumption of such agreement. The Assumed Agreements shall exclude any agreements, contracts, outstanding orders and other contractual offers or contractual relationships referred to in Section 10.1 which (i) are terminated by an Asset Seller or (ii) have expired prior to the Closing Date without breach of the Seller Parent's Covenants contained in Section 20 below.

10.6Assumption. The assumption of the Assumed Agreements shall be effected with economic effect (mit wirtschaftlicher Wirkung) and in rem effect (mit dinglicher Wirkung) as of the Closing Date by virtue of execution of the relevant Asset Transfer Agreements on the Scheduled Closing Date by the Purchaser or an Asset Purchaser. The assumption of Assumed Agreements by an Asset Purchaser under an Asset Transfer Agreement shall be

without prejudice to the joint and several liability (gesamtschuldnerische Haftung) of the Purchaser for such Asset Purchaser's liabilities pursuant to Section 7.2.

10.7Third-party Consent. With respect to the assumption of the Assumed Agreements, the Purchaser shall request, or cause the relevant Asset Purchaser to which an Assumed Agreement shall be transferred pursuant to the applicable Asset Transfer Agreement to request, immediately after the Closing Date the respective third party to such Assumed Agreement to give its consent to the assumption thereof by the respective Asset Purchaser, to the extent such explicit third party consent is required or practically desired, whereby external costs and expenses for third-party advisors assisting with obtaining such consents if and to the extent reasonably occurred and documented to achieve the consent of the third party shall be borne equally by the Seller Parent and the Purchaser, provided that the aggregate of all costs and expenses to be borne by the Seller Parent shall not exceed USD 50,000.00. The Purchaser shall use, and shall cause the relevant Asset Purchaser, as the case may be, to use, best efforts to obtain express or implied consent and shall keep the Seller Parent reasonably informed about these efforts and the status of the discussions with the respective third party. The Seller Parent shall fully cooperate with the Purchaser in respect of obtaining such third-party consents and shall provide such assistance and information as the Purchaser reasonably requires or requests to obtain such consent. If the third party makes its consent dependent on the acceptance of conditions (including changes to the respective Assumed Agreement) which are not materially disadvantageous to the Purchaser, Asset Purchaser and its other Affiliates, the Purchaser shall accept and implement, and/or shall cause the respective Asset Purchaser or other Purchaser's Affiliates to which the condition of the third party relates to accept and implement, these conditions. If the consent of the third party is denied, unreasonably delayed or offered only under conditions which are materially disadvantageous, the Parties shall inform each other without undue delay (unverzüglich). In this case, the respective Asset Seller shall, in respect of the external relationship (im Außenverhältnis), remain the party to the relevant Assumed Agreement, but shall, in respect of the internal relationship (im Innenverhältnis) with the respective Asset Purchaser, continue to hold the relevant Assumed Agreement and, to the extent possible, to perform the rights and obligations under the relevant Assumed Agreement as trustee, in accordance with the respective Purchaser's or Asset Purchaser's reasonable instructions, and for the account of the respective Asset Purchaser. To the extent possible, the Seller Parent will fulfill, or cause the relevant Asset Seller to fulfill, the respective Assumed Agreement internally (im Innenverhältnis) for the account of the relevant Asset Purchaser, and the Seller Parent shall put the respective Asset Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall put the respective Asset Seller, economically into the position in which they would be if the assumption of the Assumed Agreement had become effective as of the Closing Date. If and when it is for the respective Asset Seller not, or no longer, legally or factually possible (rechtliche oder tatsächliche Unmöglichkeit) to perform the relevant Assumed Agreement, it shall be entitled to terminate such agreement, taking into account the Purchaser's reasonable interests (in particular with respect to the legal way of termination, e.g. by way of termination for cause or ordinary termination), without any further obligation or liability to the Purchaser or the respective Asset Purchaser. At the request of the Seller Parent or the respective Asset Seller, the Purchaser shall perform, and shall cause the respective Asset Purchaser to perform, the respective Assumed Agreement

vis-à-vis the third party as a subcontractor. To the extent that such subcontracting is not permitted by law or contractually precluded, the Parties shall agree in good faith on how the obligations under the respective Assumed Agreement can be fulfilled. For as long as the consent to an assumption of an Assumed Agreement is not obtained, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parent, the Seller Parent's Affiliates and Asset Sellers in accordance with Section 25.2 below from all risk, liabilities and obligations arising from such Assumed Liabilities.

10.8Erroneous Payments. If after the Closing Date either the Seller Parent or any other Asset Seller, as the case may be, receives any amounts under the Assumed Agreements or the Purchaser or any Asset Purchaser receives any amounts under the Excluded Agreements (including the Shared Agreements), as the case may be, which should, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement have been paid to the other Party or its Affiliates, then the Party having received such amount shall forward any such amount which it has erroneously received to the other Party. Section 9.7 shall apply mutatis mutandis to any payments mistakenly made by the Seller Parent or any other Asset Seller on the one hand or the Purchaser or any Asset Purchaser on the other hand under the Assumed Agreements or Shared Agreements after the Closing Date.

10.9Shared Agreements. In respect of the Shared Agreements with a value of more than USD 100,000.00 for the KaVo Dental Business and in respect of any other Shared Agreement with a value below such threshold that the Purchaser reasonably requests (the "Relevant Shared Agreements"), the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to procure (steht dafür ein) that the respective third parties consent in writing to a split of such Relevant Shared Agreements to the effect that any deliveries or services provided exclusively by or to the Asset Sellers shall be carved out of the respective Relevant Shared Agreements and shall become the subject matter of separate agreements to be entered into between the respective third parties and the Purchaser or the respective Asset Purchaser, as the case may be, at equivalent terms and conditions. Unless and until a third party gives its consent and the split of the Relevant Shared Agreement becomes effective, the respective Relevant Shared Agreement shall remain with the respective Asset Seller in its entirety. If and to the extent that such Relevant Shared Agreement relates to deliveries or services provided by or to an Asset Seller, to the extent possible the Seller Parent shall cause the respective Asset Seller to perform such Relevant Shared Agreement for the account of the Purchaser or the respective Asset Purchaser and the Purchaser shall make, and shall cause the respective Asset Purchasers to make, such deliveries and other performances as are necessary to duly fulfill the Relevant Shared Agreements with respect to the relevant Asset Seller. Section 10.8 shall apply mutatis mutandis. This Section 10.9 shall apply mutatis mutandis to any customer contracts that are held by a Sold Company and which also relate to a business of the Seller Parent other than the KaVo Dental Business.

10.10Governmental Contracts. If and to the extent a Shared Agreement which has been entered into with a Governmental Authority cannot be split pursuant to Section 10.9 (the "Shared Governmental Contract"), (i) the respective Asset Seller shall, in respect of the external relationship (im Außenverhältnis), remain the party to such Shared Governmental Agreement and (ii) this Asset Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent legally permissible

under the Shared Governmental Contract, enter into a subcontracting agreement under which the Purchaser shall provide the relevant products or services relating to the KaVo Dental Business which are owed under the Shared Governmental Contract as a subcontractor to the relevant Asset Seller at reasonable terms and conditions negotiated in good faith. The preceding sentence shall apply mutatis mutandis to any agreement according to the last sentence of Section 10.9, in which case (i) the Sold Company shall remain the party to the Shared Governmental Agreement and (ii) the Seller Parent (or any of its subsidiaries) and the Sold Company shall, to the extent legally permissible under the Shared Governmental Contract, enter into a subcontracting agreement under which the Seller Parent (or any of its subsidiaries) shall provide the relevant products or services not relating to the KaVo Dental Business which are owed under the Shared Governmental Contract as a subcontractor to the relevant Sold Company at reasonable terms and conditions negotiated in good faith.

(y) the net present value of any Tax Benefit (determined by applying a discount rate of four and half per cent (4.5%) p.a. over the relevant time period) that will be realized thereafter (the amounts under (x) and (y) to be determined on the basis of the assumption that the relevant Sold Company (or the Purchaser or the relevant Affiliate of the Purchaser, as the case may be) is taxed on a stand-alone basis and that the relevant Tax rates remain unchanged after the date on which the Tax Indemnification Claim would have fallen due in principle);

(b)compensation for the relevant Indemnifiable Tax would have been recoverable under a policy of insurance maintained by, or for the benefit of, a Sold Company, the Purchaser, or any of the Purchaser's Affiliates and existing immediately prior to the Closing if such insurance had continued to be in effect after the Closing (excluding for the avoidance of doubt the W&I insurance entered into by the Purchaser in relation to the transactions under this Agreement);

(c)a valid and enforceable third-party claim (other than against employees) for repayment, indemnification or recourse with respect to the amount of the relevant Indemnifiable Tax exists or existed at or following the Closing Date at the level of any of the Sold Companies (including, for the avoidance of doubt, third-party claims that are excluded as a consequence of an action carried out after the Closing); it being understood that the tax matters agreement entered into as of 19 September 2019 between Danaher Corporation and Seller Parent ("Tax Matters Agreement") shall not qualify as such third-party claim for repayment, provided, however, that if and to the extent a cash-effective compensation is made under the Tax Matters Agreement directly to the Sold Companies such compensation shall insofar exclude the corresponding Tax Indemnification Claim;

(d)the Purchaser or, after Closing, any of the Sold Companies has breached its obligations under Section 22.4 and such breach has caused or increased the relevant Indemnifiable Tax; or

(e)the Purchaser, any of its Affiliates or (following the Closing Date) any of the Sold Companies, their respective representatives or any successor to all or part of their business has caused or participated in causing (verursacht oder mitverursacht) or has increased the relevant Indemnifiable Tax and/or the relevant Tax Indemnification Claim or failed to mitigate it pursuant to Section 254 German Civil Code, which shall apply mutatis mutandis unless in each case this was required by mandatory law or administrative order.

22.2.3Due Date. Tax Indemnification Claims shall be due fifteen (15) Business Days after the Purchaser has (i) notified the Seller Parent of the amount payable to the Purchaser by virtue of the Tax Indemnification Claim, the relevant Sold

Company's payment obligation and the due date of such obligation, and (ii) provided the Seller Parent with a copy of the relevant Tax assessment notice (Steuerbescheid, the "Tax Assessment Notice"); provided, however, that a Tax Indemnification Claim shall in no event be due earlier than three (3) Business Days before the respective Indemnifiable Tax is payable by the relevant Sold Company (taking into consideration any suspension of payment (Aussetzung der Vollziehung)). To the extent the Seller Parent has indemnified Purchaser with respect to an Indemnifiable Tax and such Indemnifiable Tax is subsequently reduced, the difference shall be reimbursed by the Purchaser to the Seller Parent, including all interests received thereon but less any Taxes payable thereon.

22.3Tax Refunds; Overprovisions

22.3.1General Principle. The Purchaser shall pay to the Seller Parent (in each case less any Taxes payable thereon):

(a)an amount equal to any and all Taxes that relate to a Pre-Closing Date Tax Period and that are received (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by way of set-off (Aufrechnung)) after the Closing Date by any of the Sold Companies, the Purchaser, or any of the Purchaser's Affiliates (e.g., Tax refunds, Tax repayments, Tax credits) (such Taxes, the "Tax Refunds") or that would have been received but for a failure to apply for the relevant Tax Refund after the Closing despite prior written instruction of the Sellers to apply for such Tax Refund, in each case if, and to the extent that, the aggregate amount of all such Tax Refunds exceeds the aggregate of all Tax receivables or assets of any Sold Company included in the Final Closing Date Statements;

(b)an amount equal to any and all Tax Provisions to the extent such Tax Provisions are dissolved, released or reduced (or could be dissolved, released or reduced under applicable accounting standards) in the relevant financial statements of the relevant Sold Company or could be dissolved, released or reduced if applicable GAAP were applied ("Overprovisions"); and

(c)an amount equal to any and all taxes that are payable by the Seller Parent or any of its Affiliates as a result of the breach by the Purchaser or, after Closing, any of the Sold Companies of its obligations under Section 22.4 if any to the extent such Tax would not have been incurred or increased in absence of such breach.

22.3.2Due Date. Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 22.3 shall be due:

(a)in the case of Section 22.3.1(a): ten (10) Business Days after the relevant Tax Refund has been received or would have been received if the relevant application had been made in time;

(b)in the case of Section 22.3.1(b): ten (10) Business Days after the relevant Tax Provision has been or could be dissolved, released or reduced; and

(c)in the case of Section 22.3.1(c): ten (10) Business Days following written notification by the Seller Parent which includes a copy of the relevant Tax Assessment Notice.

22.3.3Confirmation.

For the avoidance of doubt, unless the Seller Parent explicitly approves the notification by the Purchaser or the accounting firm's statement, the information provided by the Purchaser shall not be considered approved or agreed.

22.4Information Rights of Seller Parent and Procurement of Tax Proceedings. The Purchaser shall procure (steht dafür ein) that after the Closing:

22.4.1the Purchaser and all Sold Companies will (i) file all Tax returns (including any schedule or attachment thereto and including the filing of amended Tax returns) and all other Tax related communication with the Tax authorities that relate to the Pre-Closing Date Tax Period (the "Relevant Tax Period") (together, the "Relevant Tax Communication"), only subject to the Seller Parent's prior written approval, (ii) comply with all lawful written instructions issued by the Seller Parent in respect to Relevant Tax Communication, and (iii) provide the Seller Parent with all information, documents, data and reasonable assistance in relation to the Tax Matters Agreement (however, such assistance shall be limited to claims of the Seller Parent under the Tax Matters Agreement which correspond to the respective Tax Indemnification Claim) requested by the Seller in relation to the Relevant Tax Period;

The notification obligations of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 22.3.3 above shall not be cut-off, but shall only cease to exist upon a respective written waiver by the Seller Parent.

22.6Exclusivity. The liability of the Seller Parent with respect to Taxes shall be governed exclusively by this Section 22 unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Section 22. Section 23.7 of this Agreement shall apply to any Tax Indemnification Claims.

23.3De Minimis, Deductible. No liability shall attach to the Seller Parent for any Purchaser Claim (i) for a Warranty Breach or a breach of an Interim Covenant unless the individual claim (or a series of related claims) against the Seller Parent exceeds an amount of USD 75,000.00 (the "De Minimis") and (ii) for a Warranty Breach unless the aggregate amount of all such individual claims (excluding any claims below the De Minimis) exceeds USD 1,000,000.00 (the "Deductible").

30.5Amendments; Supplements. Any amendments to this Agreement (together with all Exhibits and Schedules hereto) (including amendments to this Section 30.5) or a waiver of terms and conditions shall be valid and binding upon the Parties only if approved in writing by an authorized representative of each Party, unless applicable mandatory law requires a stricter form.

30.8Interpretation.

30.8.1Exhibits and Schedules. All Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement constitute an integral part of this Agreement.

30.8.2Headings. The headings and sub-headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

30.8.3Language. This Agreement is written in the English language (except that Exhibits or Schedules may be in the German language). Terms to which a German translation has been added in parentheses and/or italics shall be interpreted in accordance with such German translation alone disregarding the English term to which such German translation relates.

30.8.4Legal Terms. Any German legal term for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, legal document, legal status, court, official or any legal concept shall, in respect of any jurisdiction other than Germany, be deemed to include what most nearly approximates in that jurisdiction to the German legal term and any reference to any German statute shall be construed so as to include equivalent or analogous laws of any other jurisdiction.

30.8.5Specific Expressions. Whenever the words "include", "includes" or "including" or "in particular" or similar expressions are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation". Whenever the words "hereof", "herein", "hereunder", "hereto" or similar expressions are used in this Agreement, they refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to a specific Section of this Agreement.

30.8.6References. A reference to a Section, paragraph, subparagraph, Schedule or Exhibit is, unless stated otherwise, a reference to a Section, paragraph of or subparagraph of, or Schedule or Exhibit to, this Agreement.

30.9Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

30.9.1Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the substantive laws of Germany, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and provisions of conflicts of laws.

30.9.2Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising from or in connection with this Agreement or its validity shall be finally settled by three (3) arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the German Institution of Arbitration e.V. (DIS), including the Supplementary Rules for Expedited Proceedings, as applicable from time to time, without recourse to the ordinary courts of law. The place of arbitration shall be Munich. The language of the arbitral proceedings shall be English, provided, however, that written evidence may be submitted in either the English or German language.

30.9.3Alternative Venue. In the event that mandatory applicable law requires any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and its execution to be decided upon by an ordinary court of law, to the extent legally permissible, the competent courts in Munich shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

30.10Severability. If any court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be deemed to have been replaced by a valid, enforceable and fair provision which comes as close as possible to the intentions of the Parties hereto at the time of the conclusion of this Agreement. The same shall apply in case of any unintended gaps. It is the express intent of the Parties that the validity and enforceability of all other provisions of this Agreement shall be maintained and that this Section 30.10 shall not result in a reversal of the burden of proof but that Section 139 German Civil Code is hereby excluded in its entirety.
