Parent and the Company will make reasonable efforts to issue their respective annual and quarterly earnings releases at approximately the same time on the same date. Parent and the Company shall coordinate the timing of their respective earnings release conference calls such that the Company shall be permitted to hold such calls prior to those of Parent. No later than 72 hours prior to the time and date that a party intends to publish its regular annual or quarterly earnings release or any financial guidance for a current or future period, such party will deliver to the other party copies of substantially final drafts of all related press releases and other statements to be made available by any member of that party’s Group to employees of any member of that party’s Group (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, employees participating in the preparation or review thereof) or to the public concerning any matters that could be reasonably likely to have a material financial impact on the earnings, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of any Lithium Group member. In addition, prior to the issuance of any such press release or public statement that meets the criteria set forth in the preceding two sentences, the issuing party will consult with the other party regarding any changes (other than typographical or other similar minor changes) to such substantially final drafts. Immediately following the issuance thereof, the issuing party will deliver to the other party copies of final versions of all press releases and other public statements. For the Applicable Period, the Company shall consult with Parent prior to issuing any press releases or otherwise making public statements with respect to the Transactions and prior to making any filings with any Governmental Authority with respect thereto.

10

information and registration statements, reports, notices, prospectuses and any other filings made by Parent with the SEC, any national securities exchange or otherwise made publicly available (collectively, the “Parent Public Filings”). The Company agrees to provide to Parent all information that Parent reasonably requests in connection with any Parent Public Filings or that, in the judgment of Parent, is required to be disclosed or incorporated by reference therein under any Law, rule or regulation. The Company will provide such information in a timely manner on the dates requested by Parent (which may be earlier than the dates on which the Company otherwise would be required hereunder to have such information available) to enable Parent to prepare, print and release all Parent Public Filings on such dates as Parent may reasonably determine but in no event later than as required by applicable Law. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Company Auditors to consent to any reference to them as experts in any Parent Public Filings required under any Law, rule or regulation. If and to the extent requested by Parent, the Company will diligently and promptly review all drafts of such Parent Public Filings and prepare in a diligent and timely fashion any portion of such Parent Public Filing pertaining to the Company. Unless required by Law, rule or regulation, the Company will not publicly release any financial or other information which conflicts with the information with respect to the Company or any member of the Lithium Group or the Lithium Business that is included in any Parent Public Filing without Parent’s prior written consent. Prior to the release or filing thereof, Parent will provide the Company with a draft of any portion of a Parent Public Filing containing information relating to the Lithium Group and will give the Company an opportunity to review such information and comment thereon; provided that Parent will determine in its sole and absolute discretion the final form and content of all Parent Public Filings.

Section 4.05. Auditors and Audits; Annual Statements and Accounting. For the Applicable Period (provided that the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 4.05(d) and Section 4.05(e) shall continue beyond the Applicable Period to the extent any amendments to, or restatements or modifications of, Parent Public Filings are necessary with respect to the Applicable Period):

(a) Unless required by Law, the Company will not select a different accounting firm than KPMG (or its affiliate accounting firms) (unless so directed by Parent in accordance with a change by Parent in its accounting firm) to serve as its (and the Company Affiliates’) independent certified public accountants (“Company Auditors”) without Parent’s prior written consent; provided, however, that, to the extent any such Company Affiliates are currently using a different accounting firm to serve as their independent certified public accountants, such Company Affiliates may continue to use such accounting firm provided such accounting firm is reasonably satisfactory to Parent.

(b) The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to enable the Company Auditors to complete their audit or review (in the case of Parent’s quarterly financial statements) such that they will date their opinion or review on the applicable Financial Statements on the same date that Parent’s independent certified public accountants (“Parent Auditors”) date their opinion or review on the corresponding Parent Financial Statements, and to enable Parent to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of any Parent Financial Statements, all in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof and as required by applicable Law.

11

(c) The Company shall provide to Parent on a timely basis all information reasonably required by Parent to meet Parent’s schedule for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of the Parent Financial Statements in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof and as required by applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will provide all required financial information with respect to the Lithium Group to the Company Auditors in a sufficient and reasonable time and in sufficient detail to permit the Company Auditors to take all steps and perform all reviews necessary to provide sufficient assistance to the Parent Auditors with respect to information to be included or contained in the Parent Financial Statements.

(d) The Company will authorize the Company Auditors to make available to the Parent Auditors both the personnel who performed, or are performing, the annual audit and quarterly reviews of the Company and work papers related to the annual audit and quarterly reviews of the Company, in all cases within a reasonable time prior to the Company Auditors’ opinion date, so that the Parent Auditors are able to perform the procedures they consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of the Company Auditors as it relates to the Parent Auditors’ report on Parent’s statements, all within sufficient time to enable Parent to meet its timetable for the printing, filing and public dissemination of the Parent Financial Statements.

(e) At Parent’s request, the Company will provide the Parent Auditors with access to the books and records of the Company and the members of the Lithium Group so that Parent may conduct reasonable audits relating to the financial statements provided by the Company under this Agreement as well as relating to the internal accounting controls and operations of the Lithium Group, including in the event Parent determines in good faith that there may be some inaccuracy in any financial statements of the Company or any member of the Lithium Group provided to Parent pursuant to this Agreement or any deficiency in the internal accounting controls or operations of the Company or any member of the Lithium Group that could materially impact the Parent Financial Statements.

(f) The Company will give Parent as much prior notice as reasonably practicable of, and consult with Parent and, at Parent’s request, the Parent Auditors concerning, any proposed determination of, or any significant change in, the Company’s accounting estimates from those in effect on the Separation Date. The Company will not make any such determination or change without Parent’s prior written consent if such a determination or change would be sufficiently material to be required to be disclosed in the Company’s or Parent’s financial statements as filed with the SEC or otherwise publicly disclosed therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make any changes in its accounting estimates that are requested by Parent in order for the Company’s accounting estimates to be consistent with those of Parent.

Section 5.03. Confidentiality. (a) Subject to Section 5.03(b), each of Parent and the Company (each, a “Receiving Party”), on behalf of itself and each Person in its respective Group, agree (x) to hold, and to cause its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives to hold in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to the confidential and proprietary information of Parent pursuant to policies in effect as of the Separation Date, all Information furnished pursuant to this Agreement by any party hereto or the members of its respective Group (such party, the “Disclosing Party”) to any Receiving Party or that is otherwise accessible to, in the possession of, or furnished to the Receiving Party’s respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise and (y) not to use any such Information for any purpose other than in accordance with this Agreement, including for the purpose of trading in any securities of the Company or otherwise, except, in each case, to the extent that such Information (i) is or becomes part of the public domain through no breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party or any member of its Group, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives, (ii) was independently developed following the Separation Date by employees or agents of the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives who have not accessed or otherwise received the applicable Information (provided that such independent development can be demonstrated by competent, contemporaneous written records of the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group), or (iii) becomes available to the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group following the Separation Date on a non-confidential basis from a third party who is not bound directly or indirectly by a duty of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party.

(b) In the event that the Receiving Party or any Person in its Group either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any Information pursuant to applicable Law (including the rules and regulations of the SEC or any national securities exchange) or receives any request or demand from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide Information of the Disclosing Party (or any Person in the Disclosing Party’s Group) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such party shall notify the other party prior to disclosing or providing such Information and shall cooperate at the expense of such other party in seeking any reasonable protective arrangements (including by seeking confidential treatment of such Information) requested by such other party. Subject to the foregoing, the Person that received such a request or determined that it is required to disclose Information may thereafter disclose or provide Information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or requested or required by such Governmental Authority; provided, however, that such Person provides the other party, to the extent legally permissible, upon request with a copy of the Information so disclosed.

(c) Upon the written request of a party, the other party shall promptly destroy any copies of such confidential or proprietary Information (including any extracts therefrom) specifically identified by the requesting party to be destroyed. Upon the written request of such requesting party, the other party shall cause one of its duly authorized officers to certify in writing to such requesting party that the requirements of the preceding sentence have been satisfied in full.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Agreement, including this Section 5.03, shall be interpreted or construed to in any manner limit or restrict the ability of Parent to disclose any Information concerning the Company or the members of the Lithium Group or the Lithium Business, including Information in Parent’s possession or which Parent is entitled to receive or have access to pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to any third party in connection with (i) any potential transaction between Parent and such third party with respect to Parent’s equity ownership of the Company (whether structured as a merger, sale or transfer of equity securities, sale of assets or otherwise) or (ii) a potential transaction with respect to Parent and such third party (whether structured as a merger, sale or transfer of equity securities, sale of assets or otherwise) (any such transaction described in (i) or (ii), a “Parent Transaction”), or to use such Information described herein in connection with any Parent Transaction, in each case subject to a customary confidentiality agreement between Parent and such third party in respect of such Parent Transaction.

Section 5.04. Transfer of Parent’s Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Parent may transfer all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a transferee of any Company Common Stock from any member of the Parent Group (a “Parent Transferee”) holding at least 10% of the Voting Stock. Parent shall give written notice to the Company of its transfer of rights under this Section 5.04 no later than thirty (30) days after Parent enters into a binding agreement for such transfer of rights. Such notice shall state the name and address of the Parent Transferee and identify the amount of Voting Stock transferred and the scope of rights being transferred under this Section 5.04. In connection with any such transfer, the term “Parent” as used in this Agreement shall, where appropriate to give effect to the assignment of rights and obligations hereunder to such Parent Transferee, be deemed to refer to such Parent Transferee. Parent and any Parent Transferee may exercise the rights under this Agreement in such priority, as among themselves, as they shall agree upon among themselves, and the Company shall observe any such agreement of which it shall have notice as provided above.

Section 5.05. Interpretation; Incorporation of Terms by Reference. This Agreement is an “Ancillary Agreement” as such term is defined in the Separation and Distribution Agreement and shall be interpreted in accordance with the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement in all respects; provided that in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement in respect of the subject matter of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control in all respects. Sections 9.03, 9.04, 9.05, 9.06, 9.07 (other than 9.07(d)), 9.08, 9.09 (without limiting Section 5.04 in any respect), 9.10, 9.11, 9.12, 9.13, 9.15, 9.16 and 9.17 (subject to the immediately preceding sentence) of the Separation and Distribution Agreement shall each be incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, as if set forth in full herein.
