the Tata JV board of directors, (iii) Purchaser shall, and shall cause any of its applicable Subsidiaries (including any applicable Transferred Entity) to, cause any such representatives on the Tata JV board of directors who are employed by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries not to exercise any voting or similar authoritative, approval, consent, veto or governing rights in their capacities as members of the Tata JV board of directors.

(e) Subject to restrictions under applicable law, if, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the Tata Transfer Date, (i) an event arises which would reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the Tata JV or on the ownership of the Tata JV Shares (whether before, on or after the Tata Transfer Date), then the Purchaser may request that the applicable member of the Parent Group exercise any applicable voting or similar authoritative, approval, consent or veto rights with respect to the Tata JV necessary to mitigate such potential material and adverse effect and such member of the Parent Group shall reasonably consider such request, taking into account the applicable limitations provided under Indian law, as reasonably advised by counsel (including relying on a legal opinion, if deemed necessary) or (ii) Purchaser requests that Parent appoint an individual specified by Purchaser to replace a representative of the Parent Group on the Tata JV board of directors who has ceased to be employed by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities), then the applicable member of the Parent Group shall reasonably consider such request, taking into account the applicable limitations provided under Indian law, as reasonably advised by counsel (including relying on a legal opinion, if deemed necessary). Subject to confidentiality restrictions under the Joint Venture Agreement dated November 11, 2009 between Tata Advanced Systems Limited, Tata JV Seller and Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, upon the reasonable request of Purchaser, Parent shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the Parent Group to, provide access to the books and records of the Tata JV to the extent that Parent or such member of the Parent Group is in possession of or is entitled to request such books and records. To the extent that any confidentiality restrictions are applicable, Parent or the applicable member of the Parent Group, as the case may be, shall make commercially reasonably efforts to obtain prior written consent to enable such information sharing.

(i) The parties agree that Section 5.04 of the Purchase Agreement shall remain in full force and effect from the Closing until the Tata Transfer Date solely with respect to Parent’s ownership of the Tata JV Shares as and to the same extent, if any, applicable prior to the Closing, provided that, with respect to such limited purpose, the reference to “$25,000,000” in Section 5.04(a)(K) shall be amended to “$5,000,000”.
