Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any disputes regarding amounts shown in the Closing Date Statement shall be resolved as set forth in this Section 2.4.

(b)Non-Competition.  In consideration of the transactions and of the consideration contemplated by this Agreement and in order to preserve and protect the goodwill and value of the Opto-tech Entities, the Business and the equity securities conveyed hereunder, the Sellers hereby agree as follows:
(i)During the period beginning on the Closing and ending on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing (the “Non-Competition Period”), Matteo Carocci, Alessandro Patrioli and Gianfranco Chiapparini shall not, either directly or indirectly, to Participate in any Restricted Business. For purposes of this Agreement, (A) the term “Participate” means to have any direct or indirect interest, whether as an officer, director, manager, employee, partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, independent contractor, consultant, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise; provided, however, that the term “Participate” shall not include ownership of less than two percent (2%) of a class of stock/quotas of a publicly-held corporation which is traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market, so long as such Restricted Party does not have any active participation in the business or management of such entity; and (B) the term “Restricted Business” means any enterprise, business or venture anywhere within North America, Europe, Australia, Asia and/or any other geographic areas in which any Opto-tech Entity transacted business within the twenty-four (24) month period prior to Closing which is engaged in or which proposes to engage in the Business or a business substantially similar to any portion of the Business, or is otherwise competitive with the Business or any Opto-tech Entity as of the Closing.

22

(iii)Each Seller shall not make any statement, public or private, oral or written, to any Person that disparages the Buyer, any Opto-tech Entity, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective managers, directors, officers, employees, equityholders, products or services.
(iv)The Buyer would suffer irreparable harm from a breach by the Restricted Parties of any of the covenants or agreements contained in this Section 5.1(b). In the event of an alleged or threatened breach by the Restricted Parties of any of the provisions of this Section 5.1(b), Buyer may, in addition to all other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof, in each case without the requirement of posting a bond or proving actual damages, and the Non-Competition Period described above will be tolled until such alleged breach or violation is resolved. The Sellers agree that the restrictions in this Section 5.1(b) are reasonable protections under the circumstances of the sale of the Quota to Buyer. If, at the time of enforcement of any of the provisions of this Section 5.1(b), a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under the circumstances then existing, the Sellers agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area.
(c)Confidentiality.  The Sellers will treat and hold as confidential all of the Confidential Information, refrain from using or disclosing any of the Confidential Information (except, as applicable, as directed by Buyer) and shall deliver promptly to Buyer or destroy, at the request and option of Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in the Sellers’ possession. In the event that the Sellers are requested or required (by oral question or written request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Sellers will notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.1(c).

Each Seller further represents and warrants that it has not assigned or otherwise transferred any right or interest in or to any of the Released Claims. Each Seller further acknowledges that such Seller is aware that statutes exist that render null and void releases and discharges of any claims, rights, demands, liabilities, action and causes of action which are unknown to the releasing or discharging party at the time of execution of the release and discharge. Each Seller hereby expressly waives, surrenders and agrees to forego any protection to which such Seller would otherwise be entitled by virtue of the existence of any such statute in any jurisdiction.

3.Tax Matters.
(a)Tax Indemnification. From and after the Closing, the Buyer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Sellers, on a joint and several basis, from and against any Liability for Taxes of each Opto-tech Entity for all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion of any Straddle Period through the close of business on the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”); provided, however, that the Buyer shall not be entitled to such indemnification with respect to any Estimated Income Taxes for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, to the extent such amount actually reduced the Net Financial Position.

23



(b)Straddle Period. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), (i) the amount of any Taxes based upon or measured by income or receipts of the Opto-tech Entities or the enterprise value of the Opto-tech Entities for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which any Opto-tech Entity holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time), and (ii) the amount of other Taxes of any Opto-tech Entity for a Straddle Period which relate to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.
(c)Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns.
(i)The Seller Representative shall, at the Sellers’ cost and expense, prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of each Opto-tech Entity for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date.

The Seller Representative shall deliver or cause to be delivered drafts of all such Tax Returns to Buyer for its review at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date of any such Tax Return; provided, however, that such drafts of any such Tax Return shall be subject to the Buyer’s review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
(d)Cooperation and Records Retention. The Seller Representative and the Buyer shall (i) each provide the other, and the Buyer shall cause each Opto-tech Entity to provide the Seller Representative, with such assistance as may be reasonably requested by any of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, audit, or other examination by any Taxing Authority or judicial or administrative proceedings relating to liability for Taxes, (ii) each retain and provide the other, and the Buyer shall cause each Opto-tech Entity to retain and provide the Seller Representative with, any records or other information that may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit or examination, proceeding, or determination, and (iii) each provide the other with any final determination of any such audit or examination, proceeding, or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of any Opto-tech Entity for any period. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer shall retain, and shall cause each Opto-tech Entity to retain, and the Seller Representative shall retain, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired, copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules, and other records or information that may be relevant to such returns for all Tax periods or portions thereof ending before or including the Closing Date and shall not destroy or otherwise dispose of any such records without first providing the other Party with a reasonable opportunity to review and copy the same. Each Party shall bear its own expenses in complying with the foregoing provisions.
(e)Transfer Taxes. The Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid in the appropriate manner 100% of any stamp duties (e.g. “imposta di registro in misura fissa ai sensi dell’art. 11 della Tariffa, Parte I, allegata al DPR 131/86” applicable to the short form transfer deed provided by Section 2.6(b)(i)), transfer tax or similar taxes or charges however levied by any governmental authority in connection with the transfer of the Quota (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), including the notarial fees relating thereto and any penalties or interest with respect to Transfer Taxes, but excluding any capital gain or similar income taxes levied to Sellers by any governmental authority in connection with the transfer of the Quota.
(f)Tax Contests.
(i)The Buyer shall deliver a written notice to the Seller Representative in writing within 10 (ten) Business Days after the receiving of any demand, claim, or notice of commencement of a claim, proposed adjustment, assessment, audit, examination or other administrative or court Proceeding with respect to Taxes of any Opto-tech Entity for which the Sellers may be liable (“Tax Contest”) and shall describe in reasonable detail (to the extent known by the Buyer) the facts constituting the basis for such Tax Contest, the nature of the relief sought, and the amount of the claimed Losses (including Taxes), if any (the “Tax Claim Notice”)., That the failure or delay to so notify the Seller Representative shall relieve the Sellers of any obligation or liability that the Sellers may have to the Buyer.
(ii)With respect to Tax Contests for Taxes of any Opto-tech Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than a Straddle Period), the Seller Representative may elect to assume and control the defense of such Tax Contest by written notice to the Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery by the Buyer to the Seller Representative of the Tax Claim Notice. If the Seller Representative elects to assume and control the defense of such Tax Contest, the Seller Representative (i) shall bear its own costs and expenses, (ii) shall be entitled to engage its own counsel and (iii) may (A) pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any Taxing Authority, (B) either pay the Tax claimed or sue for refund where applicable law permits such refund suit or (C) contest, settle or compromise the Tax Contest in any permissible manner, provided, however, that the Seller Representative shall not settle or compromise (or take other actions described herein with respect to) any Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such settlement or compromise would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax liability of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Opto-tech Entity) for any Tax period ending after the Closing Date. If the Seller Representative elects to assume the defense of any Tax Contest, the Seller Representative shall (x) keep the Buyer reasonably informed of all material

(iii)In connection with any Tax Contest that relates to Taxes of any Opto-tech Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period that (i) the Seller Representative does not timely elect to control pursuant to Section 5.3(f)(ii) or (ii) the Seller Representative fails to diligently defend, such Tax Contest shall be controlled by the Buyer (and the Seller Representative shall reimburse the Buyer for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer relating to a Tax Contest described in this Section 5.3(f)(iii)) and the Seller Representative agrees to cooperate with the Buyer in pursuing such Tax Contest.
(iv)In connection with any Tax Contest for Taxes of any Opto-tech Entity for any Straddle Period, such Tax Contest shall be controlled by the Buyer; provided, that the Buyer shall not settle or compromise (or take such other actions described herein with respect to) any Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the Seller Representative, such consent not to be unreasonable withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Buyer shall (x) keep the Seller Representative informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax Contest (including promptly forwarding copies to the Seller Representative of any related correspondence and shall provide the Seller Representative with an opportunity to review and comment on any material correspondence before the Buyer sends such correspondence to any Taxing Authority), (y) consult with the Seller Representative in connection with the defense or prosecution of any such Tax Contest and (z) provide such cooperation and information as the Seller Representative shall reasonably request, and, at its own costs and expenses, the Seller Representative shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the defense of such Tax Contest (including participating in any discussions with the applicable Governmental Authorities regarding such Tax Contests).
(g)Withholding.    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Buyer and each Opto-tech Entity shall have the right to deduct and withhold any required Taxes from any payments to be made hereunder (including any True-Up Payments and/or Earnout Payments). To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the applicable recipient of payment in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.
(h)Adjustments to Purchase Price. The Parties agree to treat any amounts payable after the Closing Date by the Seller Representative to Buyer (or by Buyer to the Seller Representative) pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment to the purchase price payable hereunder, unless otherwise required by Law or the good faith resolution of an audit.

(i)
both Parties are going concerns which exercises their activities in a professional manner and have been advised by their legal counsel in the negotiation and execution of this Agreement.

(ii)
the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of the Parties are of a contractual nature (in derogation of any statutory default provision) and form part of an overall agreement and thus shall never be construed or otherwise deemed as a warranty falling within the scope of Articles 1490 to 1497 of the Italian Civil Code; accordingly
(iii)
(a) any breach or inaccuracy of any of the warranties and any breach of any of the covenants and obligations of the Parties set forth in this Agreement shall be exclusively subject to and governed by the provisions of this Agreement, and particularly the indemnification obligations and procedure set forth under Section 6.4 herein; and (b) none of the provisions set forth in Articles 1490 to 1497 of the Code shall apply, including without limitation the statute of limitation (“prescrizione”) and forfeiture (“decadenza”) period restrictions set forth in Article 1495 of the Code, while such provisions shall apply to any other implied warranty referred to in Section 6.1(e) above provided however that any forfeiture (“decadenza”) restrictions set forth in Article 1495 of the Italian Civil Code shall be extended to 30 days; and therefore
(iv)
any claim, right or remedy relating to a breach or inaccuracy of any of the provision under Section 3 shall be exclusively subject to the ordinary statute of limitation (“prescrizione”) period provided for in Article 2946 of the Italian Civil Code and to the forfeiture (“decadenza”) restrictions agreed to by the Parties as set forth in Section 6.1 (a) hereof; in light of the contractual nature of the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of the Parties
(v)
the right to indemnification, payment of damages or other remedy based on the representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations under this Agreement will not be affected by any investigation

26



conducted by Buyer, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of having been acquired) by Buyer, at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant, or obligation.

(b)The aggregate liability of the Sellers to indemnify the Buyer Parties from and against any Buyer Indemnifiable Losses arising under Section 6.1(b)(ii)(A) shall not, in any event, exceed an amount equal to the aggregate net after-tax proceeds received by the Sellers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply to (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any of the Fundamental Representations, or (ii) any claims relating to fraud or willful misconduct.

3.Matters Involving Third Parties.
(a)If any third party shall notify any Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim by such Indemnified Party for indemnification against any other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) that exceeds the Deductible under this Agreement, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify each Indemnifying Party thereof; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party promptly shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
(b)Any Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party, within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party (or by such earlier date as may be necessary under applicable procedural rules in order to file a timely appearance and response) that the Indemnifying Party is assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim, provided, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense it must first agree and acknowledge in such notice that the Indemnifying Party is fully responsible (with no reservation of any rights other than the right to be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party) for all Losses relating to such Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party has and will at all times continue to have the financial resources to defend against the Third Party Claim (including any increased losses caused by such defense) and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect thereto and provides security therefor, (iii) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently and at its own costs and expense, and (iv) the Third Party Claim (A) does not involve injunctive relief, specific performance or other similar equitable relief, any claim in respect of Taxes, any product recall or similar action, any Governmental Authority, any criminal allegations, or any potential damage to the goodwill, reputation or overriding commercial interests of the Buyer, any Opto-tech Entity or the Business (including customer and supplier relations), (B) is not one in which the Indemnifying Party is also a party and joint representation would be inappropriate or there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (C) does not involve a claim which, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend. The Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense (except that the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the separate co-counsel to the extent the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the counsel the Indemnifying Party has selected has an actual or potential conflict of interest). The Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to the matter, or enter into any settlement which either imposes an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party or does not include a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnified Party from all Liability with respect thereto without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party.

27



(c)So long as the conditions set forth in Section 6.3(b) are and remain satisfied, then (i) the Indemnifying Party may conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.3(b), (ii) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense (except that the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the separate co-counsel to the extent the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the counsel the Indemnifying Party has selected has an actual or potential conflict of interest), (iii) the Indemnified Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (iv) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to the matter, or enter into any settlement which either imposes an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party or does not include a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnified Party from all Liability with respect thereto without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, and (v) the Indemnified Party shall, at the Indemnifying Party’s request and at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, reasonably cooperate in the defense of the matter. In the event that the conditions in Section 6.3(b) are not satisfied or become unsatisfied in the case of any Third Party Claim, then the Indemnified Party may assume control of the defense of such claim to the entire exclusion (including with respect to settlement or entry of judgment) and at the entire expense of the Indemnifying Party.
4.Calculation of Indemnification Payments.
(a)Subject to the other provisions regarding indemnification contained herein, if the Sellers are obligated to reimburse or compensate the Buyer Parties for any Liability for Taxes pursuant to the terms of Section 5.3 or for any Buyer Indemnifiable Losses pursuant to the terms of this Article 6, then the Sellers shall pay such amount to the Buyer within ten (10) Business Days following the date upon which the amount of such Tax Liability or Buyer Indemnifiable Loss is determined or agreed upon by the Seller Representative and the Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Buyer may elect, in its sole discretion, to recover a portion or all of, any Liability for Taxes pursuant to the terms of Section 5.3, or for any Buyer Indemnifiable Losses pursuant to the terms of this Article 6 by reducing any Earnout Payments otherwise payable hereunder before seeking recourse against the Sellers. Such reduction shall be deemed to be a reduction of the purchase price and as payment of such Earnout Payments, as applicable.
5.No Contribution or Circular Recovery. The Sellers shall not have any right of contribution against Buyer, any Opto-tech Entity or any other Buyer Party with respect to any Buyer Indemnifiable Losses. The Sellers hereby agree that they shall not make any claim for indemnification against Buyer or any other Buyer Party by reason of the fact that the Sellers or any of their agents or other representatives was a controlling person, equityholder director, officer, manager, employee, agent or other representative of any Opto-tech Entity or was serving as such for another Person at the request of any Opto-tech Entity (whether such claim is for losses of any kind or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Organizational Document, contractual obligation or otherwise) with respect to any claim brought by Buyer against such Person (whether such claim is pursuant to this Agreement, applicable Law, or otherwise).
6.Certain Determinations.
(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of determining whether there has been a breach and the amount of any Losses that are the subject matter of a claim for indemnification hereunder, each representation, warranty and covenant in this Agreement and each certificate or document delivered pursuant hereto shall be read without regard and without giving effect to the term(s) “material” or “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifiers as if such words and surrounding related words (e.g. “reasonably be expected to,” “could have” and similar restrictions and qualifiers) were deleted from such representation, warranty or covenant.
(b)The right to indemnification, payment of Losses of an Indemnified Party or for other remedies based on any representation, warranty or covenant contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable or being acquired) at any time, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty or covenant.
(c)For the avoidance of doubt, any and all disputes with regard to the calculation of Actual Net Working Capital, Actual Net Financial Position and Actual Transaction Expenses shall first be determined in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.4 prior to consideration of the terms of Article 6, even if such disputes may also relate to or could be considered to be a claim for indemnification under Article 6. Further, so as to avoid double-counting the calculation of any Losses subject to indemnification shall be calculated net (i) of any amounts included in the final determination of Actual Net Working Capital, Actual Net Financial Position and Actual Transaction Expenses; and (ii) net of any Tax benefit or indemnification by third parties (to the extent actually received by the Opto-Tech Entity and/or the Buyer).
(d)The Party, in relation to any and all disputes regarding the Indemnification, as set forth under Section 6, shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with regard to each of such claims. Should the Parties agree to the latter, a memorandum setting forth the terms of such agreement shall be drafted and signed by both Parties. If no such agreement is reached after 20 Business Days of good faith negotiation, either Buyer or the Seller Representative may refer to arbitration pursuant to the provision under Section 7.11.
7.MISCELLANEOUS
1.Seller Representative.

28



(a)The Sellers hereby appoint Mr. Gianfranco Chiapparini as the “Seller Representative.” The Seller Representative shall serve as representative of the Sellers with full power and authority to take all actions under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements solely on behalf of each of such Sellers. Each Seller by approval of this Agreement, hereby irrevocably appoints the Seller Representative as the agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact for such Seller for all purposes of this Agreement, including full power and authority on such Seller’s behalf (i) to consummate the transactions contemplated herein, (ii) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Seller any amendment or waiver hereto, (iii) to take all other actions to be taken by or on behalf of such Seller in connection herewith, (iv) to negotiate, settle, compromise and otherwise handle all disputes under Sections 2.4 and 2.7 and claims made under Sections 5.3 or Article 6 hereof, and (v) to do each and every act and exercise any and all rights which such Seller or Sellers collectively are permitted or required to do or exercise under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements. Each Seller agrees that such agency and proxy are coupled with an interest, are therefore irrevocable without the consent of the Seller Representative and shall survive the death, incapacity or bankruptcy of any Seller. Neither the Seller Representative nor any agent employed by it shall incur any liability to any Seller relating to the performance of its duties hereunder except for actions or omissions constituting fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(b)The Seller Representative, where the Seller Representative concerned is a legal person, agrees that it shall not commence proceedings to liquidate, dissolve or wind up its affairs without providing to Buyer and each other Seller prior written notice of its intention to do so. Upon receipt of such notice, Buyer and the Seller Representative shall have the right, and hereby agree, to appoint a mutually acceptable substitute Person (which may or may not be a Seller) to act as “Seller Representative” hereunder with all rights, powers and authority to act on behalf of the Sellers as the initial Seller Representative has pursuant to this Section 7.1(b).
(c)Any expenses or liabilities incurred by the Seller Representative in connection with the performance of its duties in such capacity under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements shall be reimbursed to the Seller Representative by the Sellers, if any. The Seller Representative may from time to time submit invoices to the Sellers covering their Pro Rata Portion of such expenses and/or liabilities and, upon the request of any Seller, shall provide such Seller with an accounting of all expenses paid. In addition to any other rights or remedies, the Seller Representative may, upon prior or contemporaneous written notice, offset any amounts determined by it to be owed by any Seller to the Seller Representative against any amounts to be paid to the Sellers.
(d)Each Seller shall severally, but not jointly, based on their respective Pro Rata Portion, indemnify and hold harmless, the Seller Representative from any and all losses, liabilities and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s execution and performance (solely in its capacity as the Seller Representative and not in its capacity as a Seller) of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, except for fraud or willful misconduct by the Seller Representative. This indemnification will survive the termination of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The Seller Representative may, in all questions arising under this Agreement, rely on the advice of counsel and for anything done, omitted or suffered in good faith by the Seller Representative in accordance with such advice, the Seller Representatives will not be liable to the Sellers. In no event will the Seller Representative (solely in its capacity as the Seller Representative and not in its capacity as a Seller) be liable hereunder or in connection herewith to any of the Sellers for any indirect, punitive, special or consequential damages.
(e)Each Seller (including, in each case for purposes of this Section 7.1(e), the Seller Representative) agrees that Buyer and, following the Closing, each Opto-tech Entity, shall be entitled to rely on any action taken by the Seller Representative, on behalf of each Seller (each, an “Authorized Action”), and that each Authorized Action shall be binding on each Seller as fully as if such Seller had taken such Authorized Action. Each Seller agrees to pay, and to indemnify and hold harmless, each of the Buyer Parties from and against any Losses which they may suffer, sustain, or become subject to, as the result of any claim by any Person that an Authorized Action is not binding on, or enforceable against, any Seller. In addition, each Seller hereby releases and discharges Buyer and, following the Closing, each Opto-tech Entity, from and against any Losses arising out of or in connection with the Seller Representative’s failure to distribute any amounts received by the Seller Representative on the Sellers’ behalf to the Sellers. Payment of all amounts paid by or on behalf of Buyer to the Seller Representative shall constitute payment by Buyer to each of the Sellers and satisfaction of the Buyer’s obligation to pay such amount hereunder (notwithstanding any withholding by the Seller Representative).
2.Transitional Assistance. The Sellers shall not in any manner take any action which is designed, intended or would reasonably be anticipated to have the effect of discouraging customers, suppliers, vendors, manufacturers, service providers, employees, lessors, licensors and other business relations of any Opto-tech Entity from maintaining the same business relationships with such Opto-tech Entity, Buyer and their Affiliates after the Closing Date. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Sellers shall not sue or otherwise pursue any claims against any business relation of any Opto-tech Entity with respect to any previous contractual relationship between such Opto-tech Entity and any customer thereof.
3.Press Releases and Announcements. Following the Closing the Sellers shall not, nor shall they permit any of their agents or representatives to, issue any press release or public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of Buyer; provided, however, that following Closing, any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by Law, in which case the disclosing Party will advise the other Party prior to making the

29



disclosure and shall insofar as may be practicable reflect on such disclosure substantially all reasonable comments of the other Parties.
4.Specific Performance. The Sellers acknowledge that each Opto-tech Entity’s business is unique and recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by such Person, money damages may be inadequate and Buyer may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, the Sellers agree that Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the Sellers’ obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief
5.No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except for the Buyer Parties, no Person, other than the Parties, is entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement in any action, suit, proceeding, hearing or other forum. Despite the foregoing, the Sellers acknowledge to each of the Buyer Parties their direct rights against the Sellers under Article 6 of this Agreement. To the extent required by law to give full effect to these direct rights, the Buyer agree and acknowledge that it is acting as agent and/or as trustee of the Buyer Parties.
6.Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the other documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, that may have related in any way to the subject matter hereof. The performance of all actions required to be performed at the Closing shall not affect, be deemed a waiver to or amend, nor have any effect of novation (“effetto novativo”) upon this Agreement, which shall remain effective as stated herein also after Closing with no need for the Parties to reiterate or otherwise confirm their commitment with respect thereto.
7.Succession and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign this Agreement or any of such Party’s rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Parties, except that Buyer may assign (a) its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates (provided that no such assignment shall release Buyer from its obligations hereunder), (b) as collateral security its rights pursuant hereto to any Person providing financing to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and (c) its rights and obligations hereunder to any subsequent purchaser of Buyer, such permitted transferee or a material portion of their assets (whether such sale is structured as a sale of stock, sale of assets, merger, recapitalization or otherwise). In this event, the assignment does not affect the obligations undertaken under this Agreement by Buyer, therefore the Parties expressly acknowledge that Article 1408, comma II, of the Italian Civil Code shall apply.
8.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. It is the express intent of the Parties hereto to be bound by the exchange of signatures on this Agreement via facsimile or electronic mail via the portable document format (PDF).
9.Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder will be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall be deemed duly given (i) three (3) Business Days after it is sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, (ii) one day after receipt is electronically confirmed, if sent by fax (provided that a hard copy shall be promptly sent by first class mail), or (iii) one (1) Business Day following deposit with a recognized national overnight courier service for next day delivery, charges prepaid, and, in each case, addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

11.ARBITRATION, CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ANY TORT AND UNFAIR COMPETITION CLAIMS, SHALL BE FINALLY SETTLED UNDER THE “RULES OF ARBITRATION” OF THE MILAN CHAMBER OF ARBITRATION BY THREE ARBITRATORS APPOINTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SAID “RULES OF ARBITRATION.” THE VENUE OF THE ARBITRATION WILL BE MILAN (ITALY) AND THE ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

12.Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Buyer and the Seller Representative. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent occurrence of such kind.
13.Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.
14.Expenses. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Agreement, each of the Parties will bear such Party’s own direct and indirect costs and expenses (including fees and expenses of legal counsel, investment bankers, brokers or other representatives or consultants) incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not such transactions are consummated.

Any reference to “Sellers” herein shall be deemed to refer both to each Seller on an individual basis and also to the Sellers on a collective basis.

Each defined term used in this Agreement shall have a comparable meaning when used in its plural or singular form. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (a) to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules mean the Articles and Sections of and the Exhibits and Schedules attached to this Agreement, (b) to an agreement, instrument or document means such agreement, instrument or document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and not prohibited by this Agreement and (c) to a Law means such Law as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto.
