The Preliminary Closing Statement shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with the Calculation Principles and in a manner consistent with the Sample Closing Statement. For illustrative purposes only, attached hereto as Exhibit E is a Sample Closing Statement based upon the Balance Sheet and assuming the Closing were to occur as of the Balance Sheet Date (the “Sample Closing Statement”). Buyer shall promptly (and, in any event, no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date) provide Seller with any comments to the Preliminary Closing Statement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s good faith estimate of any amount set forth in the Preliminary Closing Statement with which Buyer disagrees. After considering Buyer’s comments, Seller shall make such revisions to the Preliminary Closing Statement as are mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller in writing, if any, and shall deliver a copy of such revised Preliminary Closing Statement, if any, to Buyer prior to the Closing; provided, that Seller has sole discretion to accept or reject any revisions to the Preliminary Closing Statement proposed by Buyer and Buyer may not challenge or appeal Seller’s decision. The estimate set forth in the Preliminary Closing Statement initially delivered by Seller to Buyer, as modified by the resolution of any comments agreed to by Buyer and Seller in writing, shall be the basis for determining the Preliminary Purchase Price.

(b) The “Preliminary Purchase Price” shall equal: (i) Three Billion Three Hundred Million Dollars ($3,300,000,000), plus (ii) the estimate of Closing Date Cash reflected on the Preliminary Closing Statement, minus (iii) the excess (if any) of the Target Net Working Capital over the estimate of Net Working Capital reflected on the Preliminary Closing Statement, plus (iv) the excess (if any) of the estimate of Net Working Capital reflected on the Preliminary Closing Statement over the Target Net Working Capital, minus (v) the estimate of Closing Date Indebtedness reflected on the Preliminary Closing Statement.

(d) With respect to the Share Consideration:

(i) This Agreement serves as an application by Seller for the subscription for, and issue of, the Share Consideration and accordingly, it will not be necessary for Seller to provide a separate additional application on or prior to Closing.

(ii) Upon the issuance of the Share Consideration to Seller, Seller agrees to become a member of Buyer and to be bound by Buyer’s constitution in respect of the Share Consideration.

Section 2.12. Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as practicable, but in any event within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a combined balance sheet of the Business as of 11:59 p.m. in each local jurisdiction on the Closing Date together with a final closing statement, reflecting Seller’s good faith calculation of the Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Cash, the Closing Date Indebtedness, and the resulting Purchase Price (collectively, the “Final Closing Statement”). The Final Closing Statement shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with the Calculation Principles, in a manner consistent with the Sample Closing Statement and accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation used by Seller in the preparation of the Final Closing Statement. Nothing in this Section 2.12 is intended to be used to adjust for errors, omissions or inconsistencies that may be found with respect to the Financial Statements, the Balance Sheet, or the Sample Closing Statement, or any actual or alleged failure of the Financial Statements, the Balance Sheet, or the Sample Closing Statement to be prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Parties shall not be permitted to introduce different accounting principles, procedures, policies, practices, estimates, judgments or methodologies in the preparation of the Final Closing Statement or the determination of the Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Cash, or the Closing Date Indebtedness from those set forth in the Calculation Principles.

(b) Buyer may dispute Seller’s calculations set forth in the Final Closing Statement (or any element thereof) by notifying Seller in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (the “Notice of Objection”), within ninety (90) calendar days after Buyer’s receipt of the Final Closing Statement. Any item or amount as to which no dispute is raised in the Notice of Objection will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties for all purposes hereunder. In the event that Buyer does not deliver a Notice of Objection to Seller within such ninety (90) calendar day period or Buyer accepts the Final Closing Statement in writing, Buyer shall be deemed to have accepted Seller’s calculation of the Final Purchase Price set forth in the Final Closing Statement and the Final Closing Statement (including the determination of the Purchase Price thereunder) shall be final and binding upon the Parties. In connection with the review by Buyer of the Final Closing Statement or any dispute pursuant to this Section 2.12, Seller shall (i) permit Buyer and its Representatives to have reasonable access to the books, records and other documents pertaining to or used in connection with the preparation of the Final Closing Statement and the calculation of the Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Cash, or the Closing Date Indebtedness, (ii) provide Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access to employees and accountants of Seller as reasonably requested by Buyer to verify the accuracy of the Final Closing Statement, and (iii) cause the employees and accountants of Seller to reasonably cooperate in all material respects in connection with such review. In the event that a Notice of Objection is timely delivered, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days after Seller’s receipt of the Notice of Objection, or such longer period as the Parties may agree in writing, to resolve any disagreements set forth in the Notice of Objection. Any communications between the Parties (or their respective Representatives) during the aforementioned thirty (30) day period shall be treated as settlement discussion materials pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 408 and similar state rules.

(c) If the Parties are unable to resolve any such disagreement within such thirty (30) day period (or such longer period as the Parties shall have agreed in writing), then an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing as may be mutually selected by the Parties (the “Independent Firm”) shall be appointed, as an expert and not an arbitrator, to resolve any items that remain in dispute at the end of such period (the “Unresolved Items”), but in no case shall the Independent Firm review or propose any resolution for any matters that have not been raised in the Notice of Objection. If the Parties are not able to mutually select an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing within ten (10) days, then Seller shall within ten (10) days of such failure to agree deliver to Buyer a listing of three (3) accounting firms of nationally recognized standing (none of which have worked in the past three (3) years for Seller or Buyer or any of their respective Subsidiaries) and Buyer shall within ten (10) days after receipt of such list, select one of such three (3) accounting firms to act as the Independent Firm.

(d) The Parties shall instruct the Independent Firm to resolve the Unresolved Items as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Independent Firm, based solely on the provisions of this Agreement, and the written presentations by Seller and Buyer, and not on an independent review. In resolving any Unresolved Item, the Independent Firm (i) 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, (ii) may not take oral testimony from the Parties hereto or any other Person but may submit interrogatories to the Parties and receive written responses thereto, and (iii) shall not consider any facts that have occurred after the Closing Date. Seller and Buyer shall give each other copies of any written submissions at the same time as they are submitted to the Independent Firm. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall have any ex parte communication with the Independent Firm. Seller shall bear and pay a percentage of the fees and expenses of the Independent Firm that is equal to the percentage of the total dollar amount of changes to the Purchase Price proposed by Buyer that are successful, and Buyer shall bear and pay a percentage of the fees and expenses of the Independent Firm that is equal to the percentage of the total dollar amount of changes to the Purchase Price proposed by Buyer that are not successful, in each case, as determined by the Independent Firm. The written determination of the Independent Firm shall, as promptly as practicable, and in any event, within ninety (90) days after its appointment, be delivered to the Parties and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and constitute an arbitral award, absent fraud or manifest error. Upon the decision of the Independent Firm, the Final Closing Statement as adjusted to the extent necessary to reflect any agreement between the Parties prior to or in lieu of submission to the Independent Firm and the Independent Firm’s decision, shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and constitute an arbitral award, absent fraud or manifest error.

(e) The “Final Purchase Price” shall mean the Purchase Price set forth on the Final Closing Statement as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.12. If the Final Closing Statement as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.12 shows that an amount is due to Buyer (because the Preliminary Purchase Price is greater than the Final Purchase Price), Seller shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days, pay such difference to Buyer, in cash. If the Final Closing Statement shows that an amount is due to Seller (because the Preliminary Purchase Price is less than the Final Purchase Price shown on the Final Closing Statement), Buyer shall promptly pay such difference to Seller, in cash. Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.12(e) shall be made by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts of such other Party as may be designated by such other Party in writing. In the event of a failure to timely make such payment, interest shall accrue on such amount for the period commencing on the payment due date through the date on which such payment is made calculated at the Prime Rate. Such interest shall be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated daily on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days and the actual number of days elapsed. The Parties shall treat all payments made pursuant to this Section 2.12 as adjustments to the Preliminary Purchase Price for Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement and the Local Agreements to the contrary, the Parties understand and agree that adjustments made pursuant to this Agreement will only adjust the valuation ascribed to the Transferred Assets, Transferred Interests and Assumed Liabilities that are located, incorporated or formed in, the United States, as applicable.

Section 2.13. Allocation of the Transaction Consideration. Within sixty (60) days after the final determination of the Final Purchase Price pursuant to the terms of Section 2.12, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an allocation of the Final Purchase Price (together with liabilities and other items required to be included in the purchase price for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the Transferred Interests (and the assets of any Transferred Entity for which a Section 338(h)(10) Election is made pursuant to Section 6.08(a), or for which a Section 338(g) Election is made pursuant to Section 6.09)), the JV Interests and the Transferred Assets consistent with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code (the “Initial Allocation Statement”). Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any disagreements with respect to the Initial Allocation Statement within thirty (30) days following Seller’s delivery of the Initial Allocation Statement. The Initial Allocation Statement, as prepared by Seller (if Buyer does not provide notice of any disagreement), or as modified to reflect the resolution of any disagreements between Seller and Buyer, shall be referred to as the “Final Allocation Statement.” After the Closing, the Parties and their respective Affiliates will consistently use the allocations set forth in the Final Allocation Statement (if any) for U.S. federal, state, local and other (including non-U.S.) Tax purposes, including for any Tax Returns and any forms or reports required to be filed pursuant to Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code (including Internal Revenue Service Forms 8594 and 8883), or any comparable provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law, and in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to Taxes, and such Parties agree that none of them will assert or maintain a position inconsistent with the foregoing, except as may be otherwise required by applicable Law. Any subsequent adjustment to the Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement will be allocated in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation Statement (if any). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parties are unable to resolve any disagreements with respect to the Initial Allocation Statement, each of the Parties may separately determine the allocation.

Section 2.14. Withholding. Buyer and the Buyer Designees shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the payment of any proceeds payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts that are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that Buyer or a Buyer Designee withholds such amounts and timely remits such withheld amounts to the applicable Taxing Authority (and provides evidence of such remittance to Seller), such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Buyer shall notify Seller promptly, and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, in writing if Buyer determines that any withholding or deduction is required under any provision of Tax Law with respect to any portion of any such payment (and such notice shall describe the basis for such deduction or withholding) and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller (and permit Seller to provide forms or certificates) to eliminate or reduce any such required deduction or withholding (including through the provision by Seller of forms or certificates); provided, however, that no such notice is required to be provided with respect to amounts that are required to be deducted or withheld under Section 1445 of the Code as a result of the failure to deliver the documentation in Section 2.10(a)(x). Further, Seller shall make all relevant filings both on its own behalf and on behalf of Buyer or a Buyer Designee in accordance with Tax Law and provide all relevant information (including net gain calculations) to Buyer, and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller to seek to eliminate or reduce any required deduction or withholding having regard to applicable Tax Law.

Section 3.06. Financial Statements.

(a) Seller has made available to Buyer prior to the Original Date, unaudited reviewed Special Purpose Statement of Net Assets (the “Balance Sheet”) as of June 29, 2018 of the Business and the related Special Purpose Statements of Revenues and Direct Expenses for the twelve-month periods ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, and the related notes to the special purpose statements (collectively, and together with the notes, schedules or other supplementary information thereto and a review report thereon by Seller’s independent certified public accountant, the “Financial Statements”), true and complete copies of which are set forth in Section 3.06(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. The Financial Statements (A) fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of the Business as of the respective dates or for the respective time periods set forth therein, and (B) have been derived from Seller’s consolidated financial information that has been prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject to the absence of certain footnotes and normal year-end adjustments, none of which would be material).

(b) Seller maintains a system of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) as required by Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act and that is sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations, (ii) access to assets of Seller or its Subsidiaries is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iii) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Seller (i) has designed and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as required by Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act and that provide reasonable assurance that all material information (both financial and non-financial) required to be disclosed by Seller related to the Business in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to Seller’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (ii) has disclosed to Seller’s auditors (A) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting of Seller, and (B) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Seller’s internal controls over financial reporting.

(c) This Section 3.06 is qualified by the fact that the Business has not operated as a separate “stand alone” entity within Seller. As a result, the Business has been allocated certain internal charges and credits for purposes of the preparation of the Financial Statements. Such allocations of charges and credits have been made in good faith with the intent of accurately presenting to the extent practicable the financial condition and results of operations of the Business for the time periods covered by the Financial Statements, but may not necessarily reflect the amounts that would have resulted from arms-length transactions or the actual costs that would be incurred if the Business operated as an independent enterprise.

To Seller’s Knowledge, neither Seller, the Business, any Transferred Entity or any JV Entity is being investigated for or charged by any Governmental Authority with a material violation of, any Law applicable to the Business or any Transferred Entity or JV Entity, except to the extent that any such violation would not be material to the Business as a whole.

All such Permits are in full force and effect, and there are no Actions pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened by any Governmental Authority that seek the revocation, cancellation, suspension or adverse modification thereof, except where such failure would not reasonably be expected to be material to the Business, as a whole.

(ii) paid, offered or agreed or promised to make or offer any bribe, kickback, unlawful rebate or other similar unlawful payment of any nature; or

(iii) violated any provision of any applicable anti-corruption laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (the “FCPA”), the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010, or any other applicable laws or regulations relating to bribery or corruption (collectively, “Anti-Corruption Laws”), in each case in any respect material to the Business.

(d) There have been no intentionally false or fictitious entries made in the books or records of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, with respect to the Business, relating to any illegal payment or secret or unrecorded fund, and neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries has established or maintained a secret or unrecorded fund with respect to the Business, in each case in any respect material to the Business. Seller and its Subsidiaries maintain policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance in all material respects with all applicable Anti-Corruption Laws.

(a) There are no Actions pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller, threatened against Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (i) primarily arising from or relating to the Business, or arising from or relating to the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities which, in the event of an adverse judgment, would reasonably be expected to result in (x) a liability material to the Business or the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities, taken as a whole, (y) relief ordered against the Business or any Transferred Entity or JV Entity that would be material to the Business as a whole, or (ii) that challenge or seek to prevent, enjoin or otherwise delay the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Accordingly, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries nor any other Person is making any representation or warranty with respect to such estimates, projections or other forecasts and plans, including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, budgets, projections or forecasts (or any component thereof).

Each of Buyer, and, where applicable, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to (a) consummate the Closing as promptly as reasonably practicable, and (b) cause the satisfaction at the earliest practicable date of all of the conditions to their respective obligations to consummate the Closing; provided, that the foregoing shall in no event be interpreted to require any Party to waive any condition precedent to its obligations to consummate the Closing.

Section 5.05. Regulatory Approvals.

(a) Each of Buyer, and, where applicable, Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to make or cause to be made the registrations, declarations and filings required of such Party under the HSR Act and any other applicable Competition Law listed in Section 5.05(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (“Competition Filings”) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable after the Original Date (but in any event file (x) the Notification and Report Form under the HSR Act no later than ten (10) Business Days after the Original Date and (y) all other Competition Filings as promptly as reasonably practicable after the Original Date), and such initial filings from the Parties shall request early termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act. Each of Buyer and Seller agrees (i) not to withdraw or refile any filing or extend any waiting period under the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Law or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except with the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) subject to applicable Law, to furnish to the other party as promptly as reasonably practicable all information required for any application or other filing to be made by the other Party pursuant to any applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any inquiries received from, and supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information or documentation that may be requested by, the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) or any other Governmental Authority in respect of such Competition Filings, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) to promptly notify the other Party of any material communication between that Party and the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority in respect of any Competition Filings or any inquiry or Action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and of any material communication received or given in connection with any Action by a private party relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, (v) subject to applicable Law, to discuss with and permit the other Party (and its counsel) to review in advance, and consider in good faith the other Party’s reasonable comments in connection with, any Competition Filing or communication to the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority or, in connection with any Action by a private party to any other Person, relating to any Competition Filing or inquiry or Action relating to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby, (vi) to not participate or agree to participate in any substantive meeting, telephone call or discussion with the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority in respect of any Competition Filing, investigation or inquiry relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without consulting with the other party in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Authority, giving the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, telephone call or discussion, (vii) subject to applicable Law, to furnish the other Party promptly with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications between them and their Affiliates on the one hand, and the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Authority or members of their respective staffs on the other hand, with respect to any Competition Filing, inquiry or Action relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and (viii) to act in good faith and reasonably cooperate with the other Party in connection with any Competition Filings and in connection with resolving any investigation or inquiry of any such agency or other Governmental Authority under the HSR Act or any other Competition Law with respect to any such Competition Filing, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Parties may, as they deem advisable, designate any competitively sensitive materials provided to the other party pursuant to this Section 5.05 as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside counsel of the recipient and shall not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the disclosing Party. Any filing fees associated with the Competition Filings shall be paid by Buyer.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Buyer shall take any and all steps necessary to (i) resolve, avoid or eliminate any and all impediments or objections that may be asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Competition Law, and (ii) avoid the entry of, effect the dissolution of, and have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned, any Order that would prevent, prohibit, restrict or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, in each case so as to enable the Parties hereto to consummate the Closing expeditiously (and in any event prior to the Outside Date). Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with the immediately preceding sentence, Buyer shall propose, negotiate, commit to and effect, by consent decree, hold separate orders or otherwise, the sale, divesture, disposition or license, and otherwise take or commit to take any and all actions that after the Closing Date would limit Buyer’s and its Subsidiaries’ freedom of action, ownership or control with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, one or more of the assets, properties, businesses, product lines or services of Buyer, the Transferred Entities, the JV Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any interest or interests therein (each a “Divestiture Action”); provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer to commit to or effect any such Divestiture Action that, individually or in the aggregate, would, or would reasonably be expected to, result in the sale, divesture, disposition or license of assets of Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including all assets acquired pursuant to this Agreement) which generated EBITDA during the period from June 30, 2017 to June 30, 2018 in excess of the amount set forth on Section 5.05(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. If requested by Buyer, Seller shall agree to such Divestiture Action (subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.05(b)); provided, that any such agreement or action is conditioned upon consummation of the Closing. In addition, 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, lifted, reversed, overturned or terminated, any Order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would restrain, prevent or delay the Closing or any closing pursuant to Section 2.07, including by pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal and all available legislative action.

(c) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, acquire or agree to acquire by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or Equity Interests in, or by any other manner, any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets or Equity Interests, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation would reasonably be expected to (i) impose any delay in the obtaining of, or increase the risk of not obtaining, any authorizations, consents, orders, declarations or approvals of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under any Competition Laws, (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or (iii) delay the consummation of the Closing.

(d) The Parties shall cooperate to submit a draft joint voluntary notice to CFIUS with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Original Agreement (the “Draft CFIUS Filing”) as soon as reasonably practicable after the Original Date. After receipt of confirmation that CFIUS has no further comments or inquiries related to the Draft CFIUS Filing, the Parties shall promptly submit a formal joint voluntary notice to CFIUS with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “CFIUS Filing”). The Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to comply at the earliest practicable time, and in any event no later than required by CFIUS or any CFIUS member agency, with any request for additional information, documents or other materials, and will use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in connection with both the Draft CFIUS Filing and the CFIUS Filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of CFIUS or any CFIUS member agency. The Parties shall each use their reasonable best efforts to promptly inform the other Party of any oral communication with, and provide copies of written communications with, CFIUS or any CFIUS member agency regarding any such filings; provided, that no Party shall be required to share communications containing its confidential business information if such confidential information is unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties shall undertake reasonable best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all action, and do, or cause to be done all things necessary or advisable to obtain CFIUS Approval as soon as reasonably practicable, including, but not limited to, executing a letter of assurance or entering into another form of mitigation agreement with CFIUS or CFIUS member agencies on terms, conditions, or measures sought by CFIUS, provided, however, that neither Party shall be required to take or agree to take any undertaking that is not conditioned on the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.06. Shared Corporate Contracts.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that the Shared Corporate Contracts relate to both the Business and the Retained Businesses and will be retained by Seller and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities). To the extent requested by Buyer in writing prior to the Closing, the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, during the period prior to the Closing and through the termination of all Services under the Transition Services Agreement, cooperate and use their commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate securing separate contracts (the “Buyer Replacement Contracts”) intended to provide Buyer, a Buyer Designee, a JV Entity or a Transferred Entity with contract rights and obligations that are substantially similar in the aggregate (taking into account changes in volume and similar pricing metrics, as well as the needs of Buyer and its Subsidiaries) to those contract rights and obligations utilized by the Business prior to the Closing under such Shared Corporate Contracts. Buyer shall be solely responsible for any costs, expenses or fees arising from or under a Buyer Replacement Contract, or in connection with any arrangement with respect thereto described in this Section 5.06, which costs incurred on or prior to the Closing shall be reimbursed by Buyer through the Transition Services Agreement. No Party or its Subsidiaries shall be required to commence any litigation or offer to grant any material accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any counterparty to any Shared Corporate Contract in furtherance of its obligations under this Section 5.06.

(b) If the Parties are not able to obtain a requested Buyer Replacement Contract prior to the Closing, then, following the Closing until the date of the termination of all Services under the Transition Services Agreement or the earlier date on which such Buyer Replacement Contract is obtained, to the extent permissible under applicable Law and under the terms of the applicable Shared Corporate Contract, (i) at the sole cost and expense of Buyer, Seller or the applicable Subsidiary of Seller shall continue to perform the obligations under such Shared Corporate Contract relating to the Business and operations of the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, (ii) Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall take all such actions necessary, or reasonably requested by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, to facilitate performance of the obligations under such Shared Corporate Contract relating to the business and operations of the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, (iii) Seller or the applicable Subsidiary of Seller shall hold in trust for the benefit of Buyer, and shall promptly forward to Buyer, any monies or other benefits received pursuant to such Shared Corporate Contract relating to the Business and operations of the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, and (iv) the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to institute alternative arrangements intended to put the Parties in a substantially similar economic position as if such Shared Corporate Contract had been replaced by a Buyer Replacement Contract. Buyer shall be solely responsible for replacing any Shared Corporate Contracts to the extent a Buyer Replacement Contract is not obtained pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.06. Buyer shall pay, and fully indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Subsidiaries in respect of all costs, expenses, fees or other Liabilities owed pursuant to, under or relating to any Shared Corporate Contract relating to the business and operations of the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities. In determining any such costs, expenses, fees or other Liabilities pursuant to, under or relating to a given Shared Corporate Contract, such costs, expenses, fees or other Liabilities shall, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, be allocated from time to time between Seller and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, as the case may be, based on the relative proportions of total benefits received (to the extent the Liabilities relate to a specific period, over such period, and otherwise over the term of the applicable Shared Corporate Contract, measured up to the date of the allocation, without duplication) by Seller and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, or Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), on the other hand, under the relevant Shared Corporate Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be solely responsible for, and fully indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Subsidiaries in respect of, any and all costs, expenses, fees or other Liabilities to the extent arising out of or relating to any breach of any such Shared Corporate Contract in connection with complying with the provisions of this Section 5.06 or the business and operations of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities).

Section 5.07. Affiliate Transactions; Intercompany Balances.

(a) Except (i) as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, (ii) as contemplated by the Reorganization Documents, or (iii) as otherwise set forth in Section 5.07(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that all agreements, arrangements or understandings solely between Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities or JV Entities), on the one hand, and a Transferred Entity or a JV Entity, on the other hand, and all rights and obligations of the Business, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities under Contracts with respect thereto (including all Affiliate Transactions), will be caused to be terminated, or irrevocable notice will be provided in order to terminate, at or prior to the Closing, with no further Liability of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, no Contract among Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities or JV Entities), a Transferred Entity or a JV Entity, and a third party will be terminated pursuant to this Section 5.07.

(b) Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Intercompany Balances to be eliminated by either settlement or discharge as appropriate or applicable or otherwise in their entirety prior to the Closing with no further Liability of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that any such Intercompany Balances which remain unsettled or discharged (i) shall be identified as a net cumulative line item in the Final Closing Statement, which if owed to the Transferred Entities, the JV Entities or included in the Transferred Assets shall increase the Final Purchase Price by such amount and if owed to Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities and JV Entities) shall decrease the Final Purchase Price by such amount (provided that with respect to the JV Entities and any unincorporated joint venture arrangement within any Transferred Entity, such Intercompany Balances shall be Seller’s indirect proportional interest in such Intercompany Balances based on its proportional ownership in the JV Entity or unincorporated joint venture, as applicable), and (ii) will be settled or discharged by the Parties (or their Subsidiaries) after the Closing in the ordinary course of business. For the avoidance of doubt, the payments in clause (i) and (ii) above will result in a complete offset of amounts between the parties such that the amount paid by Seller and its Subsidiaries (excluding the Transferred Entities and JV Entities) shall equal the amount paid by Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities and JV Entities).

Section 5.08. Third Party Approvals. Except with respect to Mandatory Regulatory Approvals which are addressed in Section 5.05, Business Employee Approvals which are addressed in Article VII, and Business Guarantees which are addressed in Section 5.09, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, following the Closing, each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, all Third Party Approvals (including all ECR Client Contract Approvals, Non-ECR Client Contract Approvals and Lease Approvals (other than any Lease Approvals actually obtained prior to the Closing)) necessary to consummate the Reorganization and all other steps necessary for Closing, including the sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment, delivery or assumption, as applicable, of the Transferred Entities, the JV Entities, the Transferred Assets and the Assumed Liabilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to incur any Liabilities or provide any non-de minimis financial accommodation, in order to obtain any such Third Party Approval.

Section 5.09. Business Guarantees.

(a) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, from and after the Closing, (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as promptly as practicable, replace each Business Guarantee set forth on Section 5.09(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (a “Section 5.09 Business Guarantee”) and/or obtain from the applicable issuing financial institution and/or respective beneficiary thereof, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Seller, valid and binding full and unconditional releases of Seller and its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), as applicable, from any Liability, whether arising before, on or after the Closing Date, under such Section 5.09 Business Guarantee effective as of the Closing, (ii) not effect any amendments or modifications or any other changes to, or assign, authorize or transfer to a third party, any Contracts, Permits or obligations to which any of the Section 5.09 Business Guarantees relate, or (iii) otherwise take any action that would reasonably be expected to materially increase, extend or accelerate the Liability of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries under, any Section 5.09 Business Guarantee, without in any such case under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), Seller’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In furtherance of the foregoing, Buyer shall (A) provide substitute guarantees with terms and conditions that are at least as favorable to the counterparty as the terms of the applicable Section 5.09 Business Guarantees, and (B) furnish such letters of credit, institute such escrow arrangements, post such surety or performance bonds, obtain releases or amendments, or make such other arrangements as the counterparty may reasonably request (and in each case on terms and conditions that are at least as favorable to the counterparty as the terms of the applicable Section 5.09 Business Guarantee). In respect of any Section 5.09 Business Guarantee that is a letter of credit, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (v) enter into release arrangements with the applicable issuing financial institution whereby the obligations and liabilities of Seller and its applicable Subsidiaries relating to any such letter of credit are unconditionally released, (w) cause the applicable beneficiary to accept a replacement or additional/substitute letter of credit issued by an existing or new financial institution for the account of Buyer, or amend such existing letter of credit in a manner to substitute a new applicant that eliminates the obligations of Seller or its applicable Subsidiaries with respect to any obligation thereto, (x) cause such existing letter of credit to be “rolled” into a new financing agreement of Buyer (or one of its Subsidiaries) and the existing letter of credit issuer and releasing Seller and its Subsidiaries with respect to any obligation thereto, (y) provide cash or other collateral or a letter of credit or other credit back-stop in the full amount of such letter of credit for the benefit of Seller or its applicable Subsidiary and the bank or financial institution issuing such letter of credit and/or (z) enter into (together with Seller and each of its applicable Subsidiaries) assignment and acceptance (or comparable) arrangements whereby the obligations and liabilities of Seller and its applicable Subsidiaries are assigned to, and assumed by, Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it shall be solely responsible for ensuring that any credit support provided pursuant to this Section 5.09 satisfies all of the credit support provisions of the applicable Contract, Law or Permit to which it relates. Seller will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to (at no cost to any of them), reasonably cooperate with Buyer (subject to Section 5.09(d)) in connection with the performance of Buyer’s obligations under this Section 5.09(a). For the avoidance of doubt, it is specifically acknowledged and agreed by the Parties that neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be obligated to incur, pay, reimburse any cost or expense or take on any Liability (other than assumed Liabilities, as specified above) in order to replace the Section 5.09 Business Guarantees.

(b) Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing for any losses or Liabilities arising out of or relating to any Section 5.09 Business Guarantees (including reimbursement immediately following demand therefor with respect to (A) any out-of-pocket cost to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries of maintaining such Business Guarantee, and (B) any demand or draw upon, or withdrawal from, any Section 5.09 Business Guarantee). To the extent that any Section 5.09 Business Guarantee has any performance obligations from and after the Closing, Buyer shall upon Seller’s request (I) perform such obligations to the maximum extent practicable, or (II) otherwise take such actions as may be requested from time to time by Seller so as to put Seller and its Subsidiaries in the same position as if Buyer had performed or was performing such obligations.

(c) The Parties shall cooperate, and each shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, to cause the beneficiary or beneficiaries and issuers of each Section 5.09 Business Guarantee to (i) remit any cash and cash equivalents (including any interest payable thereon) to Seller or its applicable Subsidiary held under any escrow or cash collateral arrangement that is a Section 5.09 Business Guarantee promptly following the replacement of such escrow or cash collateral arrangement pursuant to this Section 5.09, and (ii) terminate, surrender and redeliver to Seller or its applicable Subsidiary each original copy of the applicable Section 5.09 Business Guarantee.

(d) In connection with Seller’s stated obligation to cooperate, and to cause its Subsidiaries to cooperate, with Buyer under this Section 5.09 relating to Section 5.09 Business Guarantees, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall in any event be required to (i) provide any assistance that (A) is not requested by Buyer, or (B) shall unreasonably interfere with its business operations, (ii) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement, agree to incur any debt obligation (contingent or otherwise), or pay any fees or reimburse any expenses for which it has not received prior reimbursement or is not otherwise indemnified in a reasonably acceptable manner by or on behalf of Buyer, (iii) provide any information the disclosure of which is prohibited or restricted under applicable Law or is Privileged Information, or (iv) take any action that will conflict with or violate its Organizational Documents or any applicable Laws or would result in a violation or breach of, or default under, any Contract to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party (other than any Section 5.09 Business Guarantee which is otherwise being amended or waived in a manner otherwise in compliance with this Section 5.09).

(e) Any Business Guarantee provided by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) after the Original Date through Closing will be treated in accordance with this Section 5.09 and as such be treated as a “Section 5.09 Business Guarantee.”

Section 5.10. Use of Seller Marks.

(a) Buyer agrees that, except as set forth in Exhibit G (the “Use of Seller Marks Post-Closing”), Buyer and its Subsidiaries have, and after the Closing, the Transferred Entities will have, no right, title, interest, license or any other right whatsoever in the Seller Marks, and that none of Seller or any of its respective Affiliates have assigned such right, title, interest, license or other right to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including following the Closing, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities).

(b) Following Closing, use of the word “Jacobs” or any other Seller Mark or any derivations or translation thereof by the Transferred Entities will be governed by the Use of Seller Marks Post-Closing, as set forth in Exhibit G.

(c) At Closing, Buyer will host a webpage for a period of twelve (12) months that (i) indicates that, as of the Closing Date, the Business is no longer owned by Seller; and (ii) redirects the user to Seller’s website. The Parties shall consult with, and consider in good faith any comments of, the other Party with respect to such webpage copy, subject to Seller’s approval which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) Following Closing, in the event that Buyer discontinues the use of the word “Jacobs” or any other Seller Mark or any derivations or translation thereof with respect to an ECR Client Contract in reliance on a Person’s tacit consent through its conduct (including such conduct as making payment) under such ECR Client Contract or by virtue of such Person having not taken legal action adverse to Buyer within a period of one year following notice or request for approval, and such Person subsequently notifies Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer (including a Transferred Entity or JV Entity) of its objection to such discontinuation, then Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate in good faith with such Person regarding such discontinuation until such point as Buyer determines, in its sole judgment, that further negotiations would adversely affect Buyer’s relationship with such Person, at which time Buyer may resume use of the word “Jacobs” or any other Seller Mark or any derivations or translation thereof with respect to such ECR Client Contract for the remainder of the term of such ECR Client Contract. Buyer’s use of the word “Jacobs” or any other Seller Marks or any derivations or translation thereof shall not include or extend to any renewal, extension, or follow-on contract to the ECR Client Contract, except as otherwise approved by the Steering Committee.

Section 5.11. Transferred Trademarks.

(a) Seller agrees that, other than the rights granted in Section 5.11(c), after the Closing, neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any right, title, interest, license or any other right whatsoever in the Transferred Trademarks.

(b) Immediately following the Closing, Seller and its Subsidiaries shall cease and discontinue any use of marketing and promotional materials, invoices, business cards, schedules, stationery, technical guidelines, product manuals, packing materials and other supplies and similar materials, that incorporate the Transferred Trademarks and shall, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, remove all Transferred Trademarks from all such supplies and materials.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the Closing but in no event later than two (2) months after the Closing Date, Seller shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, change its name, to the extent applicable, to remove the word Comprimo or Chemetics or any other Transferred Trademark or any derivations or translation thereof, including filings with the applicable Governmental Authority of each jurisdiction in which the ownership or the operation of any applicable Subsidiary of Seller or the character of its activities is such as to require it to be licensed or qualified in such jurisdiction, and providing notice to all customers, vendors and other suppliers of such name change. As promptly as practicable after the Closing but in no event later than six (6) months after the Closing Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, remove or obliterate all Transferred Trademarks from any signs or displays and cease any other use of the Transferred Trademarks. Immediately upon the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to cease holding themselves out as having any affiliation with Comprimo or Chemetics.

(d) At Closing, Seller will host a webpage for a period of twelve (12) months that (i) indicates that, as of the Closing Date, the Business is owned by Buyer; and (ii) redirects the user to Buyer’s website. The Parties shall consult with, and consider in good faith any comments of, the other Party with respect to such webpage copy, subject to Buyer’s approval which is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 5.12. Insurance.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities (as limited by Seller’s express rights to exercise control over such JV Entities)) to, continue to carry their existing insurance policies with respect to the Business and shall not allow any material breach, default or cancellation (other than expiration and replacement of policies in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice) of such insurance policies to occur or exist.

(b) It is the intent of the Parties that claims for insurance coverage with respect to the Assumed Liabilities under insurance policies of Seller and its Subsidiaries written on a “claims made” basis (the “Claims Made Policies”), which are reported to a third party insurer under such policies prior to the Closing, shall be transferred to Buyer at the Closing (i) to the extent of coverage under the applicable Claims Made Policies, (ii) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable Claims Made Policies, and (iii) except as otherwise provided by this Section 5.12. It is further the intent of the Parties that claims for insurance coverage with respect to the Assumed Liabilities under insurance policies of Seller and its Subsidiaries written on an “occurrence” basis (the “Occurrence Policies”, and together with the Claims Made Policies, the “Liability Policies”), which are reported to a third party insurer under such policies prior to or after the Closing, shall be transferred to Buyer at or after the Closing, as applicable, (x) to the extent of coverage under the applicable Occurrence Policies, (y) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable Occurrence Policies, and (z) except as otherwise provided by this Section 5.12. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges that from and after the Closing, Seller shall have sole and exclusive authority to pursue and settle such claims for insurance related to such transferred claims under Claims Made Policies or Occurrence Policies (the “Transferred Coverage”) and, at the request and direction of Buyer or its applicable Subsidiary, Seller shall pursue and settle claims for the Transferred Coverage and remit to Buyer any payments received from insurers with respect to the Transferred Coverage; provided, that (A) Seller and its Subsidiaries may, at any time, without Liability or obligation to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, amend, commute, terminate, extinguish liability under or otherwise modify any of its insurance policies (including any Liability Policies) provided, that such amendment or termination is not done for the purpose of negating Buyer’s benefit under this clause (b), (B) any such insurance claim, and Buyer’s or its applicable Subsidiaries’ potential recovery with respect thereto, will be subject to, and Seller’s assistance in respect thereof shall be limited by, all of the terms and conditions of the applicable Liability Policy (including any coverage limits with respect thereto), (C) Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall pay any deductible, self-insurance retention or other cost with respect to the applicable Liability Policy when due or reasonably requested by Seller, (D) Seller shall have no obligation under this clause (b) with respect to, and Buyer shall have no rights to coverage under, any fronting policy, policy issued by a captive insurance carrier or any arrangement under which Seller is obligated to reimburse or indemnify the insurer, and (E) Seller shall engage counsel selected by Buyer and shall be entitled to be reimbursed by Buyer for all reasonable costs, expenses and fees (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Seller in the defense of such matter to the extent not covered by the Liability Policy; provided, that Seller shall not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (G) Buyer shall not settle, adjust or compromise any such claim without the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), and (H) “Transferred Coverage” shall not include any claims for insurance coverage under Liability Policies where the governing law would require insurer consent for such transfer and, absent such consent, the transfer would constitute a breach of the insurance policy.

(c) From the Original Date until the earlier of the Closing (as extended by any additional closing pursuant to Section 2.09) and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as soon as possible all insurance required pursuant to the terms of any Contract, Law or Permit applicable to the ownership or operation of the Business, the Transferred Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 5.13. Legal Actions; Production of Witnesses; Privileged Matters.

(a) Following the Closing, as between the Parties and each of their Subsidiaries (i) Buyer shall have exclusive authority and control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions arising solely from or primarily relating to the Business (other than to the extent related to any Retained Asset or Retained Liability), the Assumed Liabilities, the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities, and may settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action, without the consent of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, except that Buyer shall not settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Action, without the written consent of Seller, where such settlement, compromise or judgment admits, acknowledges or concedes Liability, fault or responsibility on the part of Seller, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives or would impose injunctive or other equitable relief or any financial obligations that will not be indemnified subject to Section 5.20 on Seller or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) Seller shall have exclusive authority and control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions arising solely from, or primarily relating to the Retained Liabilities, the Retained Assets or the Retained Businesses, and may settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action without the consent of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, except that Seller shall not settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Action, without the written consent of Buyer, where such settlement, compromise or judgment admits, acknowledges or concedes Liability, fault or responsibility on the part of Buyer, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives or would impose injunctive or other equitable relief or any financial obligations that will not be indemnified subject to Section 5.20 on Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller or Buyer have the right to defend themselves in any such Action if (i) the other Party fails or refuses to diligently defend such Action, or (ii) such Action involves a Government Authority acting in a criminal, regulatory, or administrative capacity. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.13(a), the Parties may also seek indemnification pursuant to Section 5.28.

(b) From and after the Closing, Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to each other, upon reasonable written request, their (and their Subsidiaries’) respective officers, directors, employees, agents and other Representatives for fact finding, consultation and interviews and as witnesses to the extent that any such Person may reasonably be required in connection with any Actions in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved relating to the conduct of the Business or the Retained Businesses, prior to or after the Closing. Access to such Persons shall be granted during normal business hours at a location and in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruption to such Persons, the Business and the Retained Businesses, as applicable. Each Party agrees to reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees, but excluding officers’ or employees’ salaries, incurred by the other Party in connection with providing individuals and witnesses pursuant to this Section 5.13(b).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of ARTICLE VI shall govern with respect to Tax-related matters to the extent any provision in ARTICLE VI is in conflict with this Section 5.13. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Party shall have an obligation to cooperate, make available personnel or disclose any documents or other information pursuant to Section 5.13(a) or Section 5.13(b) or ARTICLE VI, if Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in any Action and such assistance, testimony, documents or other information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided, further, that this shall not limit in any respect any rights a Party may have with respect to discovery or the production of documents or other information in connection with any such Action.

(d) The Parties agree that their respective rights and obligations to maintain, preserve, assert or waive any attorney-client, business strategy, joint defense, common interest, and/or work product privileges belonging to either Party with respect to the Business and the Retained Businesses (collectively, “Privileges”) following the Closing, shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 5.13(d). With respect to matters relating to the Reorganization, the Retained Liabilities, the Retained Assets or the Retained Businesses, and with respect to all Business Records, documents, communications or other information (collectively, “Information”) of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries prepared in connection with the drafting, negotiation or execution of the Original Agreement, this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, the Reorganization Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, Seller shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges, including the right to assert any Privilege against Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (“Seller Controlled Privileges”). Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including, as of the Closing, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) shall take no action without the prior written consent of Seller that would reasonably be expected to result in any waiver of any Seller Controlled Privileges. After the Closing, Buyer shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges with respect to matters solely relating to the Business (except for the Retained Assets, the Retained Liabilities, Information prepared in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, the Reorganization Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and the Seller Controlled Privileges) (“Buyer Controlled Privileges”); provided, that Buyer may not assert any such Privileges of Buyer related to pre-Closing Information relating to the Business against Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives. Seller and its Subsidiaries shall take no action after the Closing without the prior written consent of Buyer that would reasonably be expected to result in any waiver of any such Privileges of Buyer. The rights and obligations created by this Section 5.13(d) shall apply to all Information as to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) would be entitled to assert or has asserted a Privilege without regard to the effect, if any, of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Privileged Information”).

(e) Upon receipt by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, or Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including, as of the Closing, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request from any Person that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party or if Seller or its Subsidiaries or Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including, as of the Closing, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), as the case may be, obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Seller or of its Subsidiaries or Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including, as of the Closing, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), has received any subpoena, discovery or other request from any Person that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of one or more of the other Parties, Seller or Buyer, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the subpoena, discovery or other request and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 5.13 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Seller’s transfer of any Information to Buyer or a Buyer Designee in accordance with this Agreement and Seller’s agreement to permit Buyer or a Buyer Designee to obtain Information existing prior to the Closing are made in reliance on the Parties’ respective agreements, as set forth in this Section 5.13 and Section 5.15, to maintain the confidentiality of such Information and to take the steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by Seller or Buyer, as the case may be. The access to Information being granted pursuant to this Agreement, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to this Section 5.13 and the disclosure to the Parties of Privileged Information, if any, relating to the Business or the Retained Businesses pursuant to this Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall not be asserted by Seller or Buyer to constitute, or otherwise deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 5.13 or otherwise.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.13 to the contrary, all rights and obligations set forth in this Section 5.13 are qualified by the limits of Buyer’s and its Subsidiaries’ rights to exercise control over each JV Entity following the Closing.

Section 5.14. Retention of Business Records and Post-Closing Access.

(a) After the Closing, Buyer agrees to, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to, hold at least one copy of all of the Transferred Books and Records and all other Business Records relating to the conduct of the Business, the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities on or before the Closing Date in their respective possession and not to destroy or dispose of such copy for a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date or such longer time as may be required by applicable Law or Order, and if thereafter Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries proposes to destroy or dispose of such copy, Buyer shall offer first in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to such proposed destruction or disposition to surrender all or any portion of such Transferred Books and Records or Business Records to Seller. Subject to Section 5.15, Seller and its Subsidiaries may retain a copy of any or all of the Transferred Books and Records and the Business Records and any other materials included in any electronic data room or that are otherwise in the possession or under the control of Seller or its Subsidiaries relating to the conduct of the Business, the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities on or before the Closing Date.

(b) From and after the Closing, subject to Section 5.15, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, to (i) give Seller and its Representatives reasonable access to the offices, properties and Business Records of Buyer and its Subsidiaries, including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, relating to the conduct of the Business, the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities on or before the Closing Date, and (ii) cause the employees, counsel, auditors and other Representatives of Buyer and its Subsidiaries, including the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities, to cooperate with Seller and its Representatives, in each case, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice to the extent reasonably requested by Seller (A) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including under applicable securities Laws) by any Governmental Authority, (B) to carry out its human resources functions or to establish, assume or administer its Employee Plans or payroll functions, (C) to prepare its financial statements or Tax Returns, or in order to satisfy audit, accounting or other similar requirements, (D) to defend any Action (excluding any Action against Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries), or (E) in connection with similar legitimate business needs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such access shall be granted upon reasonable advance notice, during normal business hours and in a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries. All rights and obligations set forth in this Section 5.14(b) are qualified by the limits of Buyer’s and its Subsidiaries’ rights to exercise control over each JV Entity following the Closing.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, to cooperate with Seller’s reasonable information requests to enable (i) Seller to meet its timetable for dissemination of its earnings releases, financial statements and management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting, and (ii) Seller’s accountants to timely complete their review of the quarterly financial statements and audit of the annual financial statements, including, to the extent applicable to Seller, its auditor’s audit of its internal control over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may withhold any access required by this Section 5.14, to the extent necessary to avoid the violation of Law to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is subject or the waiver of any Privilege; provided, that to the extent practicable and in accordance with such Law, and in a manner that does not result in the waiver of any such Privilege, Buyer shall make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which these restrictions apply; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 5.14 shall limit in any respect any rights any Party may have with respect to discovery or the production of documents or other information in connection with any litigation.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of ARTICLE VI shall govern with respect to Tax-related matters to the extent any provision in ARTICLE VI is in conflict with Section 5.13(a) or Section 5.13(b).

Section 5.15. Confidentiality.

(a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the Closing and that any Business Records, data and other information provided to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives between the Original Date and the Closing shall be considered Evaluation Material (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) and afforded all protections provided therein. Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate.

(b) Seller shall not, and shall cause its Representatives and Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent to not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), disclose to any third party (other than each other and their respective Representatives) or use in any manner (other than for the express purposes set forth in the Transaction Documents or the Reorganization Documents or any other agreement contemplated hereby or thereby, including Section 5.14 hereof) any confidential or proprietary Information primarily related to the Business (other than in respect of Retained Assets or Retained Liabilities) or related to Buyer or its business; provided, that the foregoing restriction shall not (i) apply to any Information (A) generally available to, or known by, the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 5.15(b)), or (B) independently developed by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives (other than by the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) without reference to or use of the applicable confidential or proprietary Information (other than Information relating to the Retained Business, any Retained Liabilities or any Retained Assets), or (ii) prohibit any use or disclosure (A) requested or required by Law or any Governmental Authority process so long as, to the extent legally permissible and reasonably practicable, Seller provides Buyer with reasonable prior notice of such disclosure and a reasonable opportunity to contest such disclosure, (B) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including under applicable securities Laws) by any Governmental Authority, (C) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (D) reasonably required to operate the Retained Business in the ordinary course. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.15(b), Seller and its Subsidiaries and Representatives shall be deemed to have satisfied their nondisclosure obligations hereunder with respect to confidential or proprietary Information primarily related to the Business (other than in respect to Retained Assets or Retained Liabilities) or related to Buyer or its business if they exercise the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they take to preserve confidentiality for their own similar Information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing herein shall prevent Seller or its Subsidiaries from disclosing or using Information (i) used or held for use in any Retained Business or (ii) to the extent relating to any Retained Asset or Retained Liability.

(c) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Representatives and Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, for a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Seller, disclose to any third party (other than each other and their respective Representatives) or use in any manner (other than for the express purposes set forth in the Transaction Documents or the Reorganization Documents or any other agreement contemplated hereby or thereby, including Section 5.14 hereof) any confidential or proprietary Information primarily related to the Retained Businesses, the Retained Assets or the Retained Liabilities; provided, that the foregoing restriction shall not (i) apply to any Information (A) generally available to, or known by, the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 5.15(c)) or (B) independently developed by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives (other than by the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities prior to the Closing) without reference to or use of the applicable confidential or proprietary Information, or (ii) prohibit any use or disclosure (A) requested or required by Law or any Governmental Authority process so long as, to the extent legally permissible and reasonably practicable, Buyer provides Seller with reasonable prior notice of such disclosure and a reasonable opportunity to contest such disclosure, (B) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including under applicable securities Laws) by any Governmental Authority, (C) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (D) reasonably required to operate the Business in the ordinary course. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 5.15(c), Buyer and its Subsidiaries and Representatives shall be deemed to have satisfied their nondisclosure obligations hereunder with respect to confidential or proprietary Information primarily related to the Retained Businesses, the Retained Assets and the Retained Liabilities if they exercise the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they take to preserve confidentiality for their own similar Information.

Section 5.16. Noncompetition; Non-Solicitation.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the five (5) year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, provide ECR Services to ECR Clients for ECR Projects (a “Competing Activity”); provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be precluded or otherwise restricted from:

(i) providing ECR Services on ECR Projects as necessary to (A) avoid breach of any Contract to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is a party as of the Closing, or (B) transition personnel of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to non-ECR Projects, in each case, for up to one (1) year following the Closing Date or for such longer periods as may permitted by the Transition Services Agreement;

(ii) providing ECR Services using its Retained Assets (such as the Specialized Manufacturing Business) or as may be expressly permitted pursuant to any Transaction Document;

(iii) subject to the provisions of Section 5.16(b) and Section 5.16(c), acquiring (whether by merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock or assets, license or otherwise) all or any portion of any Person (whether or not such Person is engaged in any Competing Activity, a “Seller Acquisition”) and continuing to operate such Person in the ordinary course;

(iv) de minimis ECR Services for ECR Projects; or

(v) providing non-ECR Services (whether to ECR Clients or otherwise) or participating in or working on non-ECR Projects (including, but not limited to, buildings, civil works, water projects, environmental projects, utility projects and data center projects).

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, in the event (i) Seller or any of its Subsidiaries undertakes a Seller Acquisition during the Restricted Period, and (ii) the Person, assets or business acquired pursuant thereto generated Competing Acquisition Revenues between $100,000,000 and $400,000,000, then within ninety (90) days following the closing of such Seller Acquisition, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a written offer to sell to Buyer the portion of such Person, assets or business engaged primarily in a Competing Activity at the same multiple of earnings paid (increased by the cash tax liability of Seller and its Subsidiaries resulting from such sale and any associated payment by Buyer to Seller), and on the same terms agreed, by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries therefor (in each case as reflected in the definitive documentation signed by the parties to effect such Seller Acquisition, excluding for the avoidance of doubt any restrictive covenants or similar terms personal to the seller of such Person, assets or business). Seller shall include with such offer copies of the definitive documentation signed by the parties to effect such Seller Acquisition sufficient to permit Buyer to confirm the price (including multiple of earnings) and other terms set forth in Seller’s offer. Such offer shall remain open for a period of sixty (60) days from Buyer’s receipt thereof. If Buyer fails to accept such offer and execute definitive documentation consistent therewith, within such sixty (60) day period, then, subject to the terms of Section 5.16(c) Seller or its applicable Subsidiaries shall be entitled to retain and operate such Person, assets or business in its sole discretion and any such retention or operation shall not be deemed to violate, or be taken into account in assessing any breach of, this Section 5.16.

(c) Subject to Section 5.16(b), in the event (i) Seller or any of its Subsidiaries undertakes a Seller Acquisition during the Restricted Period, and (ii) the Person, assets or business acquired pursuant thereto either (A) generated Competing Acquisition Revenues which represented more than 20% of its aggregate revenues for the same prior year fiscal period or (B) generated Competing Acquisition Revenues in excess of $400,000,000 (either alone or when combined with the Competing Acquisition Revenues applicable to the portion of any prior Seller Acquisition retained by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries as of such time), then (1) Seller shall, promptly after the closing of such Seller Acquisition, notify Buyer in writing that the threshold set forth in clause (A) or (B) has been exceeded, and (2) within a reasonable period of time following the closing of such Seller Acquisition (but in any event within eighteen (18) months of the closing of such Seller Acquisition), Seller and its Subsidiaries shall divest the portion of such acquired Person, assets or business engaged primarily in a Competing Activity (a “Threshold ECR Business”). In connection with Seller’s process to undertake such divestiture, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing (provided that Seller shall have no obligation to notify Buyer in advance of notice to any other potential buyer) of such divestiture process and allow Buyer the same time to review the potential transaction and to make a proposal to acquire the Threshold ECR Business as other bidders in the process in connection therewith. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to reject any and all proposals made by Buyer or any of Buyer’s Subsidiaries with regard to any such divestiture, and to terminate discussions and negotiations with Buyer at any time. The Parties also agree that (I) Seller and its Subsidiaries shall be free to conduct any process with respect to such divestiture as Seller and its Subsidiaries in their sole discretion shall determine (including, without limitation, by negotiating with any prospective party and entering into a definitive written agreement without prior notice to Buyer, its Subsidiaries or any other Person other than the initial notice of the process required by this Section 5.16(c)), (II) any procedures relating to such divestiture (other than those specified in this Section 5.16(c)) may be changed at any time without notice to Buyer, its Subsidiaries or any other Person, and (III) neither Buyer nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any claim whatsoever against Seller, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives, arising out of or relating to any such divestiture (other than with respect to the express obligations set forth herein and pursuant to a written, definitive, executed and binding agreement, if any, executed by the Parties in connection with such divestiture).

(d) “Competing Acquisition Revenues” means revenues generated from a Competing Activity by the acquired Person, assets or business during its annual fiscal period immediately preceding the closing of the applicable Seller Acquisition. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all revenues generated from a Competing Activity shall be calculated at the time of the applicable Seller Acquisition and in respect of the annual fiscal period applicable to the acquired Person, assets or business immediately preceding the closing of such Seller Acquisition as otherwise stated in this Agreement, and (ii) no revenues or activities following the closing of such Seller Acquisition will be taken into account for purposes of determining the thresholds set forth in Section 5.16(b) and Section 5.16(c).

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) For a period of two (2) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, hire or employ, or solicit the employment of, or make or extend any offer of employment to, any key executive or key management personnel of Buyer, in each case set forth on Section 5.16(f) of the Buyer Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Buyer Key Employees”); provided, that nothing in this Section 5.16(f) shall restrict or preclude Seller or any of its Subsidiaries from making general solicitations (including advertisements) of any form or by engaging search firms that are not specifically instructed or directed by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to solicit Buyer Key Employees.

(h) For a period of two (2) years from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, hire or employ, or solicit the employment of, or make or extend any offer of employment to, any key executives of Seller (other than Business Employees) set forth on Section 5.16(h) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (collectively, the “Seller Restricted Employees”); provided, that nothing in this Section 5.16(h) shall restrict or preclude Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries from making general solicitations (including advertisements) of any form or by engaging search firms that are not specifically instructed or directed by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries to solicit Seller Restricted Employees.

(i) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, provide services in the country of Argentina or Brazil; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be precluded or otherwise restricted from (i) providing non-ECR Services for a non-ECR Client in Argentina or Brazil pursuant to Contracts which anticipate the provision of services in multiple countries in addition to Argentina and/or Brazil or (ii) providing non-ECR Services in Argentina or Brazil for a client whose principal business is in the United States, Australia, the European Union or the United Kingdom, provided that Seller and Buyer shall first discuss such opportunity to determine whether to work together to perform such non-ECR Services under the Global Alliance Agreement to be entered into between the parties on the date hereof; provided, further, that in either case the services in Argentina or Brazil respectively are under $25,000,000 per calendar year.

(j) The Parties mutually agree this Section 5.16 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve Buyer’s and Seller’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Business, the Transferred Entities, the JV Entities, the Transferred Interests, the Transferred Assets, the Retained Businesses and the Retained Assets, and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on any Party or their respective Subsidiaries or successors.

Section 5.17. Public Announcements. The timing and content of all press releases or similar public announcements regarding the execution, performance or terms of the Original Agreement, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be mutually agreed upon in advance by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may make any such announcement which it in good faith believes is required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of, or any listing agreement with, any national securities exchange or other Governmental Authority to which such Party is subject; provided, that each such Party shall consult with, and consider in good faith any comments of the other Party in respect of, the language of any such announcement prior to any such announcement to the extent practicable, and shall in any event promptly provide the other Party with copies of any such announcement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may modify, restate, supplement, amend or amend and restate the Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents, co-agents, other agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the Original Date or to increase the amount of funds available thereunder (and Buyer shall promptly deliver copies of any amendment, restatements, supplementation, modification or waiver of the Debt Commitment Letter to Seller);

(iv) (A) assist in the preparation of definitive financing documentation and the schedules and exhibits thereto (including loan agreements, guarantees, collateral agreements, and customary officer’s, solvency and other closing certificates) as may reasonably be requested (with respect to any certificates, to the extent the officer requested to execute the same is an employee of the Business performing an equivalent function immediately following the Closing) and (B) facilitate the pledging of collateral and the release of existing liens (including customary evidence of the release and termination of liens), in any case, if any, on Seller’s (or any of its Subsidiaries’) assets, it being understood that such documents will not take effect until the Closing, and in each case, to the extent required at Closing by the terms of the Debt Financing; and

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood and agreed that the condition precedent set forth in Section 8.02(b), as applied to Seller’s obligations under this Section 5.19, shall be deemed to be satisfied unless the Financing has not been obtained as a direct result of Seller’s willful and material breach of its obligations under this Section 5.19. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that obtaining the Financing is not a condition to Closing. None of Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any obligations under this Section 5.19 following the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(d) All non-public or other confidential information provided by Seller or any of its Representatives pursuant to this Agreement will be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Buyer will be permitted to disclose such information to the Financing Sources or prospective financing sources and other financial institutions and investors that are or may become parties to the Debt Financing and to any underwriters, initial purchasers or placement agents in connection with the Equity Financing (and, in each case, to their respective counsel and auditors) so long as such persons (i) agree to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement as if parties thereto, or (ii) are subject to other confidentiality undertakings reasonably satisfactory to Seller and of which Seller is a beneficiary.

(e) Subject to Buyer’s indemnification obligations under Section 5.19(b), Seller hereby consents to the reasonable use of the Business’s logos solely in connection with the Debt Financing; provided, however, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is neither intended, nor reasonably likely, to harm or disparage Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective marks.

Buyer agrees that all rights of the D&O Indemnitees to indemnification and exculpation from Liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 5.20 or any Organizational Documents, or indemnification agreements or other arrangements of each Transferred Entity or JV Entity in existence as of the Original Date or as set forth in Section 5.20(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue until the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, or such longer period as required to resolve any claim which arose before the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing Date.

Following the Closing until the sixth (6^th) anniversary of the Closing Date; or such longer period as required to resolve any claim which arose before the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause the applicable Transferred Entity or JV Entity to, promptly advance and pay any expenses of any D&O Indemnitee incurred in the defense of any Action subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 5.20; provided that the D&O Indemnitee to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent required by Law. Buyer shall have access to Seller’s insurance in connection with any such Action to the extent provided in Section 5.12.

(b) If any Action is asserted or made with respect to which a D&O Indemnitee may seek or obtain indemnification hereunder, any determination required to be made with respect to whether a D&O Indemnitee’s conduct complies with the standards set forth under Law or any Organizational Documents, or any indemnification agreements or arrangements of the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities as set forth in Section 5.20(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be made by independent counsel selected by such D&O Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to Buyer, and any costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) relating to the retention of the independent counsel shall be borne by Buyer.

(e) Buyer hereby acknowledges that one or more D&O Indemnitees may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance provided by Seller or any Subsidiary of Seller (excluding the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitors”). Buyer hereby agrees that (i) it and the Transferred Entities and JV Entities are the indemnitor of first resort with respect to Actions and Liabilities covered by the terms of this Section 5.20 (i.e., its obligations to such D&O Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Seller Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or Liabilities incurred by such D&O Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) it and the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such D&O Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Liabilities paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Section 5.20, without regard to any rights such D&O Indemnitee may have against the Seller Indemnitors, and (iii) it and the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Seller Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Seller Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. Buyer further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Seller Indemnitors on behalf of such D&O Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which such D&O Indemnitee has sought indemnification from Buyer, the Transferred Entities and/or the JV Entities shall affect the foregoing and the Seller Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or to be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such D&O Indemnitee against Buyer, the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities. Buyer and each D&O Indemnitee agree that the Seller Indemnitors are express third-party beneficiaries of the terms of this Section 5.20(e).

(f) The obligations of Buyer under this Section 5.20 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnitee to whom this Section 5.20 applies without the consent of the affected D&O Indemnitee. The provisions of this Section 5.20 (i) are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnitee and such D&O Indemnitee’s heirs and Representatives, and (ii) are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract, at Law or otherwise.

The Parties agree that any disputes between the Parties involving (a) the determination of whether or not certain assets, personnel or real estate are deemed Transferred Assets and become part of the Business, or (b) whether the Seller Marks are being used by Buyer and its Subsidiaries in a manner inconsistent with Section 5.10, shall be resolved through such individuals as designated by each Party from time to time, and if such individuals do not resolve such dispute within twenty (20) calendar days (or such longer period as agreed by such individuals) after commencement of negotiations to resolve such dispute, then such dispute will be referred to the Steering Committee (as such term is defined in the Transition Services Agreement) for resolution.

Section 5.32. Matters Relating to Share Consideration. Seller understands that the Share Consideration has not been registered under the Securities Act and cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In connection with any offer or sale of the Share Consideration, Seller acknowledges and agrees that it and any of its Subsidiaries and any Person acting on their behalf (i) will comply with all applicable Laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it offers or sells the Share Consideration and (ii) shall offer and sell the Share Consideration (a) in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S under the Securities Act, (b) to “qualified institutional buyers” within the meaning of and pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, if available, (c) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, or (d) pursuant to any other available exemptions under the Securities Act. In addition, Seller agrees that any portion of the Share Consideration which is offered or sold prior to the end of the Lock-Up Period shall (A) be offered and sold in Australia pursuant to Regulation S or (B) if not offered and sold solely in Australia pursuant to Regulation S, the parties shall mutually agree additional documentation or other deliverables to be provided by Seller to Buyer in connection with such offer or sale to establish that the proposed offer and sale may be effected without registration of such Share Consideration under the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

ARTICLE VI
TAX MATTERS

Section 6.01. Tax Returns; Refunds; Transfer Taxes.

(a) Seller shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Seller Group Tax Returns for all taxable periods. If a Transferred Entity or JV Entity is permitted under applicable Law to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a Tax period in which the Closing occurs, Seller and Buyer shall treat (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to treat) the Closing Date as the last day of such Tax period with respect to such Transferred Entity or JV Entity. Buyer shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities for all Straddle Tax Periods (each such non-Seller Group Tax Return, a “Buyer-Prepared Tax Return”), and Seller shall timely prepare, or cause to be timely prepared, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities for Tax period ending on or before the Closing Date and required to be filed after the Closing Date (each such non-Seller Group Tax Return, a “Seller-Prepared Tax Return”). For the avoidance of doubt, neither a Buyer-Prepared Tax Return nor a Seller-Prepared Tax Return includes any Seller Group Tax Returns. Any Buyer-Prepared Tax Return or Seller-Prepared Tax Return (each, a “Covered Tax Return”) (A) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by applicable Law), (B) shall reflect a deduction for Seller’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Reorganization to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and to the extent that any Covered Tax Return shows a net operating loss, such net operating loss shall be carried back to previous Tax periods of the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and (C) shall be submitted by the preparing Party to the other Party (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent reasonably requested by Seller, supporting documentation) for the other Party’s review and comment at least thirty (30) days (or in the case of a Tax Return not related to Income Taxes, seven (7) days) prior to the due date (including any applicable extension) for filing such Tax Return. The preparing Party shall incorporate the other Party’s reasonable comments to any Covered Tax Return that are provided in writing to the preparing Party by the other Party at least seven (7) days (or in the case of a Tax Return not related to Income Taxes, four (4) days) prior to the due date (including any applicable extension) for filing such Tax Return. Seller shall pay to Buyer (for remittance to the applicable Taxing Authority) all Taxes due with respect to any Seller-Prepared Tax Return (except to the extent such Taxes were taken into account as a current liability in the Final Net Working Capital) at least seven (7) days (or in the case of non-Income Taxes, four (4) days) prior to the latest date on which such Taxes are due and payable without interest or penalties, and Buyer shall timely file, or cause to be timely filed, all such Seller-Prepared Tax Returns in accordance with Law. Without prejudice to Seller’s indemnity obligations pursuant to Section 6.06(a) and payment obligations to Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.01(a), Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid all Taxes with respect to any Covered Tax Return in accordance with Law. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to applicable Law or in connection with the final resolution of a Tax Claim governed by Section 6.07, neither Buyer nor any Transferred Entity or JV Entity shall amend any Tax Return for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or a Straddle Tax Period without the prior written consent of Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. By the later of (i) five (5) days after Seller receives from Buyer an invoice requesting payment of Taxes with respect to a Buyer-Prepared Tax Return, and (ii) seven (7) days (or in the case of non-Income Taxes, four (4) days) prior to the latest date on which such Taxes are due and payable without interest or penalties, Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of such Taxes (except to the extent such Taxes were taken into account as a current liability in the Final Net Working Capital) attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, calculated in accordance with Section 6.06(c) for a Straddle Tax Period.

(b) Seller shall be entitled to any refunds of Taxes (or any credits against cash Taxes actually payable received in lieu of such refund) of any Transferred Entity or JV Entity relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period that are received after the Closing by Buyer, any Transferred Entity or any JV Entity, plus any interest actually received with respect thereto from an applicable Taxing Authority (collectively, “Tax Refunds”), except to the extent any such Tax Refund (i) was included as a current asset in the Final Net Working Capital, (ii) results from the carryback of any net operating loss, credit, or other Tax attribute from any Post-Closing Tax Period that is permitted by Section 6.01(c), or (iii) relates to Seller Taxes that are paid by any Buyer Indemnified Parties after the Closing and that have not been indemnified by Seller pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, any such Tax Refunds to Seller no later than ten (10) days following receipt of such Tax Refund, net of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with obtaining such Tax Refund (including any Taxes imposed thereon).

(c) Upon Seller’s request and at Seller’s expense, Buyer shall, or shall cause the relevant Transferred Entity or JV Entity to, initiate a claim for a Tax Refund. Without Seller’s prior written consent, or except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to applicable Law, Buyer shall not cause or permit any Transferred Entity or JV Entity to carry back any net operating loss or other Tax attribute from any Tax period beginning after the Closing Date to any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date.

Section 6.02. Transfer Taxes: VAT.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all excise, sales, use, registration stamp, recording, documentary, conveyancing, franchise, property, transfer, gains and similar Taxes (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”) arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne by the Party legally required to pay such amount under applicable Tax Law; provided, however, that any Transfer Taxes arising from the Reorganization shall be borne entirely by Seller, and upon request and presentation of reasonable documentation to Buyer.

(b) All amounts due under, and consideration given in respect of the subject matter of, this Agreement from or by Buyer are exclusive of VAT. If any VAT is chargeable in respect of any supply made by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller to Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer , Buyer shall on demand pay or reimburse (or procure that the relevant Affiliate of Buyer shall pay or reimburse) such VAT in addition to the amounts or consideration otherwise due or payable, at the rate in force at the due time of the relevant supply or such other time as is stipulated under the relevant legislation. The Seller shall (and shall procure that each relevant Affiliate of Seller shall) promptly provide to Buyer or relevant Affiliate of Buyer a valid VAT invoice in respect of any such VAT. Each of Seller and Buyer shall use (and procure that their respective Affiliates shall use) commercially reasonable efforts to minimize (to the extent permissible at Law) obligations relating to VAT as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.03. Cooperation On Tax Matters. The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other, in connection with the preparation, execution and filing of Tax Returns of or with respect to the Business, the Transferred Assets, any Transferred Entity or any JV Entity and any audit, Taxing Authority inquiry, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of or with respect to the Business, the Transferred Assets, any Transferred Entity or any JV Entity. Such cooperation shall include access to records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or audit, litigation or other proceeding, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and executing powers of attorney. The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, (a) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Business, the Transferred Assets and the operations of the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities relating to any Tax period beginning on or before the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, (b) abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority, and (c) give the other Party ninety (90) days’ written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if the other Party so requests, Buyer or Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, allow the other to take possession of such books and records. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not be required to provide to any Person, before, on or after the Closing Date, any right to access or to review any Tax Return or Tax work papers of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller (including any Seller Group Tax Return and any pro forma Tax Return used to create any such Seller Group Tax Return).

Section 6.04. Buyer Covenants. Buyer covenants that it will not cause or permit any Transferred Entity or JV Entity, or any Affiliate of Buyer with respect to any Transferred Entity or JV Entity (a) to make any election pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section ###-###-####-3 that is effective on or before the day after the Closing Date, (b) except for the Section 338(h)(10) Elections and the Section 338(g) Elections, to make an election under Section 336 or Section 338 of the Code (or any comparable applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law), (c) to make any other election with respect to Taxes that has retroactive effect to any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (d) except as required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law) with respect to a Tax Claim governed by Section 6.07, to amend any Tax Return of any Transferred Entity or JV Entity that covers a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (e) to grant an extension of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to, any Tax Return of any Transferred Entity or JV Entity that covers a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, (f) to file any voluntary disclosure agreement, participate in any arrangement similar to a voluntary disclosure agreement, or voluntarily approach any Taxing Authority regarding any Taxes or Tax Returns of any Transferred Entity or JV for any Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, or (g) take any action outside of the ordinary course of business on the Closing Date after the Closing, in each case, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 6.05. Tax Sharing Agreements.

(a) Seller shall cause any and all existing Tax Sharing Agreements between any Transferred Entity or JV Entity, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than any Transferred Entity or JV Entity), on the other hand, to be terminated prior to the Closing and, from and after the Closing, for none of the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities to have (unless otherwise specifically provided in the remainder of this Section 6.05) any rights, obligations or Liabilities thereunder.

(b) Buyer shall procure that each Transferred Entity or JV Entity (each being a “UK CT Entity”) which is in a group for United Kingdom corporation tax purposes with the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller (other than the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) (any such group being a “Seller CT Group”) pays to any relevant group member of any relevant Seller CT Group (the “Group Member”) an amount equal to any payment of United Kingdom corporation tax which has been discharged by the Group Member on behalf of the relevant UK CT Entity under a group payment arrangement made prior to the Closing pursuant to section 36 of the United Kingdom Finance Act 1998 or Section 59F of the United Kingdom’s Tax Management Act 1970 (a “GPA”), save to the extent that the relevant UK CT Entity has previously satisfied its obligations under the GPA. Payment to the Group Member shall be made on the later of two Business Days after demand is made for it and the due date for payment to the relevant Taxing Authority of the underlying United Kingdom corporation tax liability.

(c) Seller shall procure that (i) the representative member of the Seller’s VAT Group will, on or before Closing, give notice to HM Revenue & Customs (with a copy of such notice given to Buyer) that the relevant Transferred Entities and JV Entities will, with effect from Closing, cease to be eligible to be members of the Seller’s VAT Group and (ii) will use all reasonable endeavors to ensure that the relevant Transferred Entities and JV Entities will cease to be members of Seller’s VAT Group with effect from Closing.

(d) Where a UK CT Entity has paid an amount to any relevant Group Member under Section 6.05(b), Seller shall procure that (i) no amounts apportioned to the relevant UK CT Entity under the GPA and in respect of which such payment was made by the UK CT Entity shall be reapportioned under the GPA without Buyer’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld); and (ii) there is promptly paid to the relevant UK CT Entity an amount equal to (A) any excess by which the aggregate amount of any payments made under Section 6.05(b) by that UK CT Entity exceeds the amount of United Kingdom corporation tax finally apportioned to that entity and in respect of which those payments were made; and (B) interest on such excess at the rate applicable from time to time on overpaid United Kingdom corporation tax from the period from the date of the payment under Section 6.05(b) to the date of the payment under this Section 6.05(d).

(e) Seller shall use reasonable commercial efforts to procure that, with effect from Closing, each UK CT Entity is removed from any GPA to which they are party immediately prior to Closing.

(f) Buyer shall procure that any Transferred Entity or JV Entity which, before Closing, is a member of any Seller’s VAT Group (each such entity a “VAT Grouped Entity”) shall contribute to the representative member of the Seller’s VAT Group such proportion of any VAT for which the representative member (or equivalent responsible person) of the Seller’s VAT Group is accountable and which is properly attributable to supplies, acquisitions and importations (“Supplies”) made or deemed to be made by any relevant VAT Grouped Entity before the Closing (less any amount of deductible input tax that is properly attributable to such Supplies). Such contribution shall be made in cleared funds on the day which is the later of two Business Days after demand is made for it, and two Business Days before the day on which the representative member is required to account for such VAT to the relevant Taxing Authority.

(g) Seller shall pay, or procure to be paid, to a Transferred Entity or JV Entity an amount equivalent to the proportion of any repayment of VAT received by the representative member of the Seller’s VAT Group from HM Revenue & Customs or of any credit obtained by reference to an excess of deductible input tax over output tax that is attributable to Supplies made, or deemed to be made, by the relevant Transferred Entity or JV Entity while a member of the Seller’s VAT Group (ignoring, for this purpose, the deeming provisions in section 43(1) of United Kingdom Value Added Tax Act 1994), provided that such repayment or credit was included as a current asset in the Final Net Working Capital. Such payment, if due, shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by, or offset against a liability of, the representative member.

(h) In this Section 6.05, “Seller’s VAT Group” means any group for VAT purposes, of which Seller or any Affiliate of Seller (other than the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities) is the representative member (or equivalent responsible person).

Section 6.06. Tax Indemnification.

(a) Except to the extent taken into account as a current liability in the Final Net Working Capital, Seller hereby indemnifies the Buyer Indemnified Parties against, and agrees to hold each of them harmless from, any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of (i) any and all Taxes of or attributable to the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (as determined in the manner set forth in Section 6.06(c) with respect to any Straddle Tax Period) or arising from any inclusions under Section 965 of the Code, (ii) any and all Taxes of or attributable to Seller, any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Entities and the JV Entities), any Asset Seller or any Seller Group, (iii) any and all Taxes resulting from, relating to, arising out of or attributable to (A) the Retained Businesses or the Retained Assets, (B) the Transferred Assets or the Business with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (as determined in the manner set forth in Section 6.06(c) with respect to any Straddle Period), or (C) the payment of the Closing Date Indebtedness or the payment of any of Seller’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iv) without prejudice to Section 6.02(a), Taxes, including Transfer Taxes, arising from or in connection with the Reorganization, (v) Taxes of any member of an affiliated, combined, consolidated or unitary group of which any Transferred Entity or JV Entity is or was a member prior to the Closing, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any analogous or similar provision under any state, local or non-U.S. Law, (vi) Taxes of any Person imposed on any Transferred Entity or JV Entity as a successor-in-interest or transferee, by contract or pursuant to any Law, which Taxes relate to an event or transaction occurring prior to the Closing, (vii) any breach of, or failure to perform, any covenant or obligation of Seller contained in Section 2.14 or this ARTICLE VI, (viii) any and all Taxes imposed as a result of the transactions described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.338-1(a)(1) that are deemed to occur as a result of the Section 338(g) Elections and (ix) any and all Taxes for which Seller has agreed to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 2.14 (collectively, “Seller Taxes”); provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to indemnify for Losses attributable to any Taxes arising from any breach of, or failure to perform, any covenant or obligation of Buyer contained in this ARTICLE VI.

(b) Buyer hereby indemnifies the Seller Indemnified Parties against, and agrees to hold each of them harmless from, any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of (i) any breach of, or failure to perform, any covenant or obligation of Buyer contained in Section 2.14 or this ARTICLE VI, (ii) any and all Taxes for which Buyer has agreed to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 2.14, and (iii) any and all Taxes of the Transferred Entities and JV Entities, and any and all Taxes resulting from, relating to, arising out of or attributable to the Transferred Assets or the Business, in each case, with respect to a Post-Closing Tax Period, other than Seller Taxes.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Tax Period, the portion of such Taxes from any such Straddle Tax Period that are allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period will be determined as follows: (i) in the case of any real property, personal property, ad valorem and similar Taxes (“Property Taxes”), the amount of such Property Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period of such Straddle Tax Period will be deemed to be the amount of such Property Taxes for the entire Straddle Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the number of total days in the entire Straddle Tax Period; and (ii) in the case of any Income Taxes or any other Taxes that are not Property Taxes, the amount of any such Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period of such Straddle Tax Period will be computed based on the interim closing of the books as of and including the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the Tax period of any applicable pass-through entity for applicable Tax purposes shall be deemed to close at such time) and Seller’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Reorganization shall be attributed to the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(d) The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall satisfy any claim under Section 6.06(a) first from the R&W Policy (to the extent such policy covers such claim) and then, subject to the limitations in Section 5.28(c) and (d), from Seller.

Section 6.07. Procedures Relating to Indemnification of Tax Claims.

(a) If a claim for Taxes, including notice of a pending audit, shall be made by any Taxing Authority, which, if successful, might reasonably result in a claim for indemnity pursuant to Section 6.06(a) (any such claim, a “Tax Claim”), the Party which receives such claim shall notify the other Party in writing within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such Tax Claim; provided, that the failure of a Party to give such notice to the other Party shall not affect the indemnification provided under Section 6.06(a) except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has actually been materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) Seller shall control any Tax Claim with respect to any Seller Group Tax Return, and Buyer shall not participate in or control any such Tax Claim.

(c) Except to the extent that the insurer is otherwise entitled to control pursuant to the terms of the R&W Policy, with respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Tax period ending on or prior to the Closing Date not described in Section 6.07(b), Seller shall have the right to control the conduct of such Tax Claim unless Seller fails to provide Buyer with written notice of its election to control such Tax Claim within ten (10) days of Seller’s receipt from Buyer of notice of such Tax Claim in accordance with Section 6.07(a); provided, however, that (i) Seller shall keep Buyer reasonably informed as to the status of such Tax Claim, and (ii) Buyer shall be entitled to participate in any such Tax Claim, if the resolution of such Tax Claim would reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Tax Liability of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) in any Post-Closing Tax Period, and Seller shall not settle or otherwise compromise such Tax Claim without Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If Seller does not elect to control a Tax Claim pursuant to this Section 6.07(c) within the time period set forth above, then Buyer shall control such Tax Claim; provided, however, that (A) Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed as to the status of such Tax Claim and (B) Buyer shall not settle or otherwise compromise such Tax Claim without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d) With respect to any Tax Claim relating to a Straddle Tax Period, Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct of such Tax Claim; provided, however, that with respect to any Tax Items in such Tax Claim for which the resulting Tax Liability Seller would be required to provide indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, (i) Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed as to the status of such Tax Items in such Tax Claim and (ii) Seller shall be entitled to participate in any such Tax Claim with respect to such Tax Items and Buyer shall not settle or otherwise compromise such Tax Items in such Tax Claim without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 6.08. Section 338(h)(10) Elections.

(a) Seller shall, and Buyer shall cause the applicable Buyer Designee (such Buyer Designee, which shall be an entity classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the “Section 338(h)(10) Purchaser”), to make a joint election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and under any comparable provision of applicable state and local Tax Law) with respect to the Section 338(h)(10) Purchaser’s purchase (each such purchase a “US Qualified Stock Purchase”) pursuant to this Agreement of each Transferred Entity that is (i) classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (ii) a member of the Seller Group for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the Closing Date (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Elections”). Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to effect and preserve valid and timely Section 338(h)(10) Elections; provided, that Buyer and the Section 338(h)(10) Purchaser shall be solely responsible for filing any Section 338(h)(10) Forms. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, for all U.S. federal (and, as applicable, state and local) income Tax purposes, each of Seller and Buyer agrees to (and agrees to cause its Affiliates to) (x) treat the US Qualified Stock Purchases in accordance with applicable Tax Law, including Treasury Regulations Section 1.338(h)(10)-1 and (y) not take any position on any Tax Return that is inconsistent with such treatment, except as required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law).

(b) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to the Buyer a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form 8023, Elections Under Section 338 for Corporations making Qualified Stock Purchases (and, upon prior written request of Buyer submitted to Seller as soon as practicable after the Original Date and in no event less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, any analogous form required to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) for state or local Tax purposes) with respect to the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Forms”). Seller authorizes Buyer and the Section 338(h)(10) Purchaser to file each Section 338(h)(10) Election Form with the appropriate Taxing Authority. If the Buyer determines that any change is to be made in any previously executed Section 338(h)(10) Form or other form or documentation required to effect valid and timely Section 338(h)(10) Elections, then Buyer may prepare a new Section 338(h)(10) Form or other form or documentation and deliver such new Section 338(h)(10) Form or other form or documentation to Seller, and Seller shall cause such new Section 338(h)(10) Form or other form or documentation to be duly executed and promptly deliver such executed new Section 338(h)(10) Form or other form or documentation to Buyer.

Section 6.09. Section 338(g) Elections. If Seller provides Buyer with a written request within 180 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause the applicable Buyer Designee, to make an election under Section 338(g) of the Code (and under any comparable provision of applicable state and local Tax Law) with respect to Buyer or the Buyer Designee’s purchase pursuant to this Agreement of any Transferred Entity that is (i) classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (ii) not organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia (collectively, the “Section 338(g) Elections”). Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in good faith to effect and preserve valid and timely Section 338(g) Elections. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, for all U.S. federal (and, as applicable, state and local) income Tax purposes, each of Seller and Buyer agrees to (and agrees to cause its Affiliates to) (x) treat the Section 338(g) Elections in accordance with applicable Tax Law, including Treasury Regulations Sections 1.338-1 to 1.338-10 and (y) not take any position on any Tax Return that is inconsistent with such treatment, except as required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law).

Section 6.10. Certain Indemnification Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if and to the extent any indemnification payment may become due and owing to a Transferred Entity or JV Entity that would be subject to Tax on the receipt of such payment, such payment shall instead be due and owing to Buyer (or, where relevant, to the Buyer Designee which acquired that Transferred Entity or JV Entity). For the avoidance of doubt, if and to the extent any indemnification payment may become due and owing to a Transferred Entity or JV Entity organized under the laws of the United Kingdom pursuant to this Agreement, such payment shall instead be due and owing to Buyer (or the relevant Buyer Designee where appropriate). The Parties shall treat all payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE VI and indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement as adjustments to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

ARTICLE VII
EMPLOYEE MATTERS

Section 7.01. Business Employees. No later than April 15, 2019, or if earlier, a sufficient period prior to the Closing Date to enable Buyer to comply with applicable Law with respect to offers of employment under Section 7.03(a), Seller shall deliver an update of Section 3.11(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, listing, as of the most recent date practicable, all Business Employees, at the Closing, which shall also include an identification number and such Business Employee’s title, work location and employer. Seller shall, promptly after the Closing Date (and, in any event, within two (2) Business Days of such date), provide Buyer the final list of all Business Employees as of the Closing Date, which shall include (i) an identification number and such Business Employee’s title, work location and employer and (ii) only such updates from the most recently provided list as provided by Seller to Buyer following April 25, 2019 as necessary to (a) reflect ordinary course termination and hiring and (b) any other changes reasonably necessary to reflect changes to the scope of such list due to changes to Exhibit A-1, and be the final list for purposes of Section 3.11(a).

Section 7.02. Benefit Plans. Neither Buyer nor any of its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) will contribute to or assume sponsorship of, or have any other liability with respect to, any Employee Plan that is sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Seller or its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities), other than the Assumed Plans and those arrangements and obligations expressly transferred to and assumed by Buyer and its Subsidiaries as set forth in this ARTICLE VII.

Section 7.03. Transfer of Offered Employees and Transferred Entity Employees.

(a) No less than ten (10) Business Days prior to and effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, offer employment to each Offered Employee who (i) is actively employed on such date or is absent from employment due to vacation or temporary illness not reasonably expected to exceed five (5) days (the “Current Offered Employees”), or (ii)(A) is absent from work due to an authorized or protected leave of absence (including but not limited to a leave of absence due to a short-term or long-term disability) and (B) has the right to return to employment following expiration of such absence under applicable Law, effective as of the expiration of the leave if such Offered Employee is able to return to active employment within six (6) months after the Closing Date or such longer period as required by applicable Law (the “Leave Offered Employees”). All such offers of employment to (I) Current Offered Employees shall provide for employment with Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer to commence effective as of 12:00 a.m., local time, on the day immediately following the Closing Date, and (II) Leave Offered Employees shall provide for employment with Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer to commence at the expiration of such Leave Offered Employee’s authorized or protected leave if such Leave Offered Employee is able to return to active employment within six (6) months after the Closing Date or such longer period as required by applicable Law. With respect to each Offered Employee, each such offer of employment will be for a position that is comparable to the type of position held by such Offered Employee, and at the same or reasonably similar geographic location as in effect as of ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date and shall be made on terms and conditions sufficient to avoid statutory, contractual, common law or other severance obligations, other than where such severance is unavoidable pursuant to applicable Law or the terms of any applicable Bargaining Agreement, and shall otherwise comply in all respects with applicable Law and the terms of this Section 7.03. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be required to make individual offers of employment to a Transferred Entity Employee, and Seller and Buyer acknowledge that applicable Law provides for the automatic transfer of the employment of Transferred Entity Employees upon the purchase of the Transferred Interests and JV Interests. In the case of Business Employees primarily employed outside the United States, the Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Interests and JV Interests, as applicable following the Closing Date), shall, in addition to meeting the requirements of this Section 7.03, comply with any additional obligations or standards arising under applicable Laws governing the terms and conditions of their employment or severance or termination of employment in connection with the transfer of the Business or otherwise.

(b) Each Offered Employee who accepts an offer of employment from Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries and commences employment with Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer, together with each Transferred Entity Employee who is employed on the Transfer Date, whether such Transferred Entity Employee is actively employed on such date, absent from employment due to vacation or temporary illness not reasonably expected to exceed five (5) days or absent from work due to an authorized or protected leave of absence (including, but not limited to, a leave of absence due to a short-term or long-term disability) with the right to return to employment following expiration of such absence under applicable Law, shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee”. The date an Offered Employee commences employment with Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) shall be referred to herein as the Offered Employee’s “Transfer Date” (and the Transfer Date for a Transferred Entity Employee who is employed on the Closing Date shall be 12:00 a.m. local time in the applicable jurisdiction on the day immediately following the date upon which the Transferred Entity that employs such individual becomes a Subsidiary of Buyer).

(c) If any Offered Employee requires a work permit or employment pass or other legal or regulatory approval for his or her employment with Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable efforts to cause any such permit, pass or other approval to be obtained and in effect prior to the Closing Date. In the event any such permit, pass or other approval is not obtained and in effect prior to the Closing Date, for a period of three (3) months following the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable efforts to cause any such permit, pass or other approval to be obtained. In the event any such permit, pass or other approval is not obtained and in effect within three (3) months following the Closing Date, Buyer shall be entitled to terminate the employment of such Business Employee, subject to Section 7.03(e) and Section 7.11.

(d) For a period beginning on the Transfer Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, each Transferred Employee shall be entitled to receive (while he or she is employed with Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries) (i) at least the same salary, wages and short-term incentive bonus opportunities that were provided to such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing, and (ii) employee benefits (including, without limitation, equity compensation, retirement and welfare benefits) that are not materially less favorable in the aggregate than either those employee benefits (including, without limitation, equity compensation, retirement and welfare benefits, and excluding severance benefits) provided to such Transferred Employee by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing or those employee benefits provided by Buyer to similarly situated employees of Buyer or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, to the extent that the Transferred Employee is a Non-U.S. Business Employee or a Business Employee who primarily provides services outside of the United States, such Transferred Employee shall be entitled to compensation and benefits required by applicable Law if such compensation and/or benefits are greater than those set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be obligated to continue to employ any Transferred Employee for any specific period of time following the Closing Date, subject to applicable Law. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this ARTICLE VII or to the extent required by applicable Law, effective as of the Transfer Date, the Transferred Employees shall cease all active participation in and accrual of benefits under the Plans, other than the Assumed Plans.

(e) Seller and Buyer intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Business Employee prior to or upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and that the Business Employees who become Transferred Employees will have continuous and uninterrupted employment immediately before and immediately after the Transfer Date. Buyer shall bear any costs related to, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against, (i) any claims made by any Offered Employee for any statutory, contractual, civil law or common law notice of termination (or pay in lieu), severance or separation benefits and other legally mandated payment obligations (including the employer portion of any employment Taxes, together with any compensation payable during any mandatory termination notice period related thereto), in each case, arising out of or in connection with the failure of Buyer or its Subsidiaries to make offers of employment to, or continue the employment of, any Offered Employee in accordance with this Agreement and as required by applicable Law and (ii) any claims relating to the employment of any Transferred Employee on or after the Transfer Date, including in respect of any act or omission relating to the employment of any Transferred Employee on or after the Transfer Date under any applicable Bargaining Agreement or applicable Law. With respect to each Transferred Employee, during the period beginning on the Transfer Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer or its Subsidiaries shall provide (I) to each Transferred Employee identified in Section 7.03(e) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the severance and termination benefits set forth thereon and (II) to each Transferred Employee other than those identified in Section 7.03(e) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, severance and termination benefits that are no less favorable than the greater of (x) those severance and termination benefits in accordance with Seller’s severance policy for the applicable jurisdiction or as otherwise required by an applicable Bargaining Agreement and (y) the severance benefits provided by Buyer or its Subsidiaries to its similarly situated employees, in each case, subject to any greater severance, termination or similar benefits as may be statutorily required, and based on such Transferred Employee’s compensation as of such employment termination date after taking into account any service that such Transferred Employee has with Buyer or its Subsidiaries as of the date of such termination of employment, including, for the avoidance of doubt, service credited under Section 7.03(f).

(f) For purposes of participation of a Transferred Employee in a Buyer Benefit Plan, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to credit each Transferred Employee with all years of service for which such Transferred Employee was credited before the Transfer Date with Seller or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting of benefits under any comparable Plans, except to the extent such credit would result in a duplication of benefits for the same period of service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts such that, for purposes of each Buyer Benefit Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Transferred Employee, all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such Buyer Benefit Plan shall be waived for such Transferred Employee and his or her covered dependents, and any eligible expenses incurred by such Transferred Employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Plan ending on the date such Transferred Employee’s participation in the corresponding Buyer Benefit Plan begins shall be taken into account under such Buyer Benefit Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such Transferred Employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such Buyer Benefit Plan, to the extent permitted under the terms of such Buyer Benefit Plan.

100

(g) Buyer shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) to, credit each of the Transferred Employees with an amount of paid vacation time and sick leave days following the Transfer Date equal to the amount of vacation time and sick leave days each such Transferred Employee has accrued but not yet used or cashed out as of the Transfer Date under Seller’s or its Subsidiaries’ vacation and sick leave policies as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date. In the event that any Transferred Employee is entitled under applicable Law to be paid for any vacation days and paid time off days accrued but not yet taken by the Transferred Employee as of the Transfer Date with respect to the calendar year in which the Transfer Date occurs or with respect to any prior calendar year and Seller pays such amount to such Transferred Employee after the Transfer Date (any such amounts paid by any Seller, the “Seller Vacation Payment”), then: (i) within sixty (60) days following the Transfer Date, Seller shall provide to Buyer a schedule setting forth the aggregate amount of the Seller Vacation Payment, and (ii) Buyer shall reimburse Seller for the aggregate amount of the Seller Vacation Payment as soon as administratively practicable but in any event no later than fifteen (15) days following delivery of such schedule.

Section 7.04. 401(k) Plan. Buyer shall maintain or establish a defined contribution plan that includes a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Buyer’s 401(k) Plan”). Prior to the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall mutually agree to the treatment of participant account balances relating to the Transferred Employees who are participants in Seller’s qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code (the “Seller’s 401(k) Plan”), with such treatment to provide for either (x) the opportunity for a participant to elect a “direct rollover” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) of his or her account balance (including earnings thereon through the date of transfer and promissory notes evidencing all outstanding loans) in accordance with applicable Law or (y) a “trust-to-trust” transfer of Transferred Employees’ account balances from the Seller’s 401(k) Plan to Buyer’s 401(k) Plan in accordance with applicable Law.

Section 7.05. Pension Plan Benefits.

(a) U.S. and U.K. No assets or liabilities with respect to the Transferred Employees shall be transferred as a result of this Agreement from any defined benefit pension plan maintained for Business Employees in the U.S. or the U.K. and identified as such in Section 3.13(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Seller DB Plan”) to any plan or arrangement established by Buyer or any of Subsidiary of Buyer, and, as of the Closing, no Transferred Employees shall accrue additional benefits under the applicable Seller DB Plan (to the extent such accruals have not already ceased). Benefits accrued by the Transferred Employees under the applicable Seller DB Plan through the Closing shall be fully vested as of the Closing and shall be payable to such Transferred Employees pursuant to the terms of, and at the time and in the amounts provided under, the applicable Seller DB Plan, as may be amended from time to time.

(b) Belgium and Canada. As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall assume all Liabilities for all accrued benefits in respect of the Transferred Employees under any (i) defined benefit pension plan maintained for Business Employees in Belgium and Canada and identified as such in Section 3.12(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (each a “Transferring DB Plan”) in accordance with applicable Laws and the terms of such Transferring DB Plan (such Liabilities, the “Transferred Pension Liabilities”) and (ii) all Plans that provide post-employment health or welfare benefits to Transferred Employees in Canada (the “Transferred Canada Welfare Plans”). Any assets with respect to any of the Transferred DB Plans and Transferred Canada Welfare Plans (including, to the extent applicable, any insurance contracts or portions thereof maintained with respect to such plan) shall be transferred to Buyer in connection with the transfer of the Transferred Pension Liabilities.

101

(c) Statutorily Mandated Arrangements. For the avoidance of doubt, any Liability associated with any defined benefit or post-employment payment or benefit made available to or provided to any Transferred Employee pursuant to any statutory or governmental mandate that would qualify as a Plan (notwithstanding that such benefits are excluded from the definition of “Plan” for purposes of this Agreement) (each, a “Statutorily Mandated Benefit Arrangement”) shall become a Liability of the Buyer following the Closing and Buyer shall provide or make available such benefits to Transferred Employees following the Closing in accordance with applicable Law.

Section 7.06. Equity-Based Awards.

(a) In respect of any performance-vesting stock unit awards that were granted to any Transferred Employee under the Seller’s Long-Term Incentive Plan in respect of fiscal year 2017 and fiscal year 2018 that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (each, a “Seller PSU Award”), Seller shall ensure that the terms of the Seller PSU Awards provide for pro-rated vesting of such awards upon the Closing, and Seller shall be solely responsible for payment of the resulting vested portion of such awards. Buyer shall, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, grant to each holder of a Seller PSU Award, an equity-based, time-vesting incentive award in respect of Buyer shares of common stock with an aggregate value equal to the PSU Replacement Incentive Award Value (as defined below), which equity award will vest on the vesting date that applied to such Seller PSU Award. For purposes of the foregoing, the PSU Replacement Incentive Award Value will equal the product of (x) the number of shares of Seller common stock underlying the Seller PSU Award determined based on actual performance through the Closing Date and pro-rated to reflect the portion of the original vesting period that has not yet lapsed as of the Closing Date and (y) the closing price of a share of Seller common stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date as reported on the New York Stock Exchange.

(b) In respect of any time-vesting restricted stock unit awards that were granted to any Transferred Employee under the Seller’s Long-Term Incentive Plan for any fiscal year other than those made with respect to fiscal year 2018 that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (each, a “Seller RSU Award”), Seller shall ensure that the terms of such awards provide for accelerated vesting upon the Closing to the extent that such awards would have vested in the ordinary course through November 10, 2019, and Seller shall be solely responsible for payment of the resulting vested portion of such awards. Buyer shall, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, grant to each holder of a Seller RSU Award, an equity-based, time-vesting incentive award in respect of Buyer shares of common stock with an aggregate value equal to the RSU Replacement Incentive Award Value (as defined below) and which will vest in accordance with the same vesting schedule that applied to the Seller RSU Award. For purposes of the foregoing, the RSU Replacement Incentive Award Value will equal the product of (x) the number of shares of Seller common stock underlying the Seller RSU Award which would have vested in the ordinary course after November 10, 2019 (notwithstanding the occurrence of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement), and (y) the closing price of a share of Seller common stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date as reported on the New York Stock Exchange.

(c) In respect of the stock option awards held by a Transferred Employee, of which a portion of which was scheduled to vest in the ordinary course on May 28, 2019 and is identified on Section 7.06 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Seller Cash Out Option”), Seller shall, effective as of the Closing Date, cancel each Seller Cash Out Option and shall be solely responsible for payment to the holder of a Seller Cash Out Option in an amount equal to, in respect of each Seller Cash Out Option, the product of (x) the excess, if any, of (i) the closing price of a share of Seller common stock on the Business day immediately preceding the Closing Date as reported on the New York Stock Exchange over (ii) the exercise price of such option, and (y) the number of shares underlying such option (such product of (x) and (y), the “Option Spread Value”). In respect of the stock option awards held by a Transferred Employee, of which a portion was scheduled to vest in the ordinary course on November 19, 2019 and is identified on Section 7.06 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Seller Option”), Buyer shall, as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, grant to each holder of a Seller Option, a restricted stock unit in respect of Buyer shares of common stock with an aggregate value equal to Option Spread Value for each Seller Option.

102

Section 7.07. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation. With respect to each nonqualified deferred compensation plan that permits elective deferrals by participants, is maintained by Seller and in which any Transferred Employee participates (each, a “Seller Deferred Compensation Plan”), the Buyer and Seller agree that a mirror plan replicating the terms and conditions of such plan (each such mirror plan, a “Buyer Deferred Compensation Plan”) will be established prior to the Closing. Buyer and Seller agree that the Liabilities associated with each Transferred Employee that maintains an account balance under each Seller Deferred Compensation Plan will be transferred to a Buyer Deferred Compensation Plan at the Closing (such transferred liabilities calculated in accordance with GAAP, the “Seller Deferred Compensation Liabilities”). As of the Closing, Seller will transfer to Buyer assets having a value equal to the then-current present value of the Seller Deferred Compensation Liabilities, and to the extent practicable, the transfer of such assets will include the transfer or assignment of any insurance policies maintained by Seller with respect to the Seller Deferred Compensation Liabilities.

Section 7.08. Allocation of Employment Liabilities.

(a) Except with respect to any Liabilities that transfer to Buyer or any if its Subsidiaries pursuant to applicable Law (including any Liabilities relating to any current or former Business Employee of a Transferred Entity or JV Entity or any Assumed Plan) or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement (including, for the sake of clarity, Section 7.08(c)), Section 2.07 and the Transition Services Agreement, and prior to the Transfer Date of any Transferred Entity Employee, the Sellers shall assume or retain, as applicable, Liability and responsibility for all employment and employee-benefit related Liabilities, obligations, claims or losses that arise as a result of an event or events that occurred prior to the Closing Date that relate to the Business Employees (or any dependent or beneficiary of any Business Employee). Seller shall bear any costs related to, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Subsidiaries from and against any claims related to, the Liabilities assumed or retained by the Sellers pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(b) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement (including, for the sake of clarity, Section 7.08(c)) and subject to Section 2.07 and the Transition Services Agreement, effective as of the Closing Date, Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities and JV Entities) shall assume or retain, as applicable, and be solely responsible for all employment and employee-benefits related Liabilities, obligations, claims or losses that relate to (i) any Transferred Entity Employee (or his or her dependent or beneficiary) that arise as a result of an event or events that occurred before, on or after the Transfer Date, (ii) any Assumed Plan that arise as a result of an event or events that occurred before, on or after the Transfer Date, and (iii) any Transferred Employee (or any dependent or beneficiary of any Transferred Employee) that arise as a result of an event or events that occurred on or after the Transfer Date or are otherwise expressly assumed by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer shall bear any costs related to, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and the Asset Sellers from and against any claims related to, the Liabilities assumed or retained by the Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities and JV Entities) pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) Subject to Section 2.07 and the Transition Services Agreement, the Sellers shall retain all Liabilities and obligations for all short- and long-term disability, medical, U.S. retiree medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment and other welfare benefit claims incurred by Business Employees prior to the Transfer Date that are covered under the terms of the applicable Plans, except that Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible for such claims to the extent such claims relate to an Assumed Plan. No Assumed Plan provides for U.S. retiree medical benefits. With respect to claims incurred on or after the Transfer Date by the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents for short- and long-term disability, medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment and other welfare benefit claims, Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible. For these purposes, a claim shall be deemed to be incurred: (A) in the case of short- or long-term disability benefits (including related health benefits), at the time of the injury, sickness or other event giving rise to the claim for such benefits, (B) in the case of medical, prescription drug, dental or vision benefits, at the time professional services, equipment or prescription drugs covered by the applicable plan are obtained, (C) in the case of life insurance benefits, upon death, and (D) in the case of accidental death and dismemberment benefits, at the time of the accident. The Buyer shall assume or retain all Liabilities and obligations for all workers’ compensation claims incurred by Business Employees, whenever incurred.

103

Section 7.09. WARN Act. Buyer agrees to provide, or cause its Subsidiaries to provide, any required notice under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 (“WARN”) and any similar federal, state or local Law or regulation, and to otherwise comply with WARN and any other similar Law or regulation, in each case with respect to any “plant closing” or “mass layoff” (as defined in WARN) or group termination or similar event affecting Employees (including as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) and occurring on and after the Closing Date. None of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action after the Closing Date that would cause any termination of employment of any Business Employees that occurs before the Closing to constitute a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” or group termination under WARN or any similar federal, state or local Law or regulation, or to create any Liability or penalty to Seller for any employment terminations under applicable Law.

Section 7.10. Bargaining Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the provisions in this ARTICLE VII, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, comply with the terms of the Bargaining Agreements and with applicable Law (including local legislation) and to assume all obligations under the Bargaining Agreements, including, without limitation, any duty to recognize or bargain with a union imposed by applicable Law.

Section 7.11. Bonuses.

(a) Annual Bonuses. Buyer agrees that as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, each Transferred Employee who is entitled to an annual bonus in respect of Seller’s fiscal year 2019, shall be paid his or her annual bonus calculated based on actual performance through the Closing Date, as accrued and reflected in the Net Working Capital.

(b) Discretionary Bonuses. Buyer agrees that the amount budgeted by Seller for allocation as discretionary bonuses for Business Employees as accrued and reflected in the Net Working Capital and pro-rated to reflect the portion of the Seller’s fiscal year 2019 that has lapsed as of the Closing Date, shall be paid to Transferred Employees through a selection and distribution process which is similar to the process employed by Seller in the Seller’s fiscal year prior to the Closing, and such discretionary bonuses shall be paid at the same time that Buyer pays discretionary or similar bonuses to its employees in respect of Buyer’s fiscal year 2019.

Section 7.12. Seller Fiscal Year 2019 LTI/Retention Awards. Seller agrees that in lieu of granting awards under the Seller’s Long-Term Incentive Plan to Business Employees in the ordinary course in respect of Seller’s fiscal year 2019, Seller will grant to eligible Business Employees as determined by Seller consistent with past practice, a long-term cash incentive award which will vest in equal annual installments over a two- or three- year period (the “Seller LTI Retention Awards”). As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Seller shall or cause any of its Subsidiaries to pay to each of those Transferred Employees described in Retention Group 1 as set forth in Section 7.12 of the Seller Disclosure Schedules who is a holder of a Seller LTI Retention Award as of immediately prior to Closing a cash payment equal to 20% of the aggregate value of the Seller LTI Retention Award. Buyer shall assume the obligation to pay (x) the remaining 80% of the value of the Seller LTI Retention Awards awarded to holders in Retention Group 1 and (y) 100% of the value of the Seller LTI Retention Awards granted to each of those Transferred Employees described in Retention Group 2 as set forth in Section 7.12 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, which amounts shall be payable to the eligible Transferred Employees in the form of (with such form to be determined in Buyer’s discretion) (a) cash or (b) an equity award in respect of Buyer’s common stock in a form to be determined in Buyer’s discretion, in either case, in accordance with the vesting schedule that applied to the Seller LTI Retention Award when granted by Seller (each, a “Substitute Retention Award”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Transferred Employee who holds a Substitute Retention Award is terminated by the Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including a Transferred Entity) without cause prior to any applicable vesting date of his or her Substitute Retention Award, the Substitute Retention Award shall become fully vested and payable at the time of such termination event.

104

Section 7.13. Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary rights in a Business Employee (or any of beneficiary or dependents thereof) with respect to compensation, terms and conditions of employment and/or benefits that may be provided to any Transferred Employee by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities) or under any Buyer Benefit Plan, (ii) prevent Buyer or a Subsidiary of Buyer (including, following the Closing, the Transferred Entities or the JV Entities), after the Closing, from terminating the employment of any Transferred Employee, or (iii) otherwise be construed in any way as a modification or amendment of the provisions of any Employee Plan.
