In addition to paying the Purchase Price, Buyer shall assume and be responsible for satisfying the Assumed Liabilities.

(b)The Purchase Price is based on the following amounts being present at Closing at the Effective Time:

(i)An immediately available cash balance of Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) being on deposit with JP Morgan Chase, New York; account number 406310123, in the name of Amnis Corporation, and that such cash balance is free of Encumbrances.

(ii)The total Dollar amount of all Inventory and Affiliated Inventory is Six Million Nine Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Nine Hundred Forty-Six Dollars ($6,966,946).

(iii)The total amount of the obligations of the Business under the category of “Service Contracts-Prepayments” from the customers of the Business (as such amount is historically calculated and reported in the ordinary course of the Business, is Four Million Three Hundred Eighty-Two Thousand Seven Dollars ($4,382,007).

(iv)The amount of Purchased Assets set forth in Schedule 2.1(c)(iii) is zero ($0).

(v)The amount of the accounts receivable and notes receivable of Amnis which are excluded from the Excluded Assets pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and thus included in the Purchased Assets is zero ($0).

(vi)The amount of the trade accounts payable of Amnis which are excluded from the Excluded Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.4(c) and thus included in the Assumed Liabilities is zero ($0).

(c)Within forty-five (45) days following the Closing, the Parties shall determine any differences in the amounts in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(vi) above between the Agreement Date, as such amounts are set forth above and the Effective Time and reconcile the Purchase Price. Any increase from the amounts stipulated in clauses (b)(i), (b)(ii) and (b)(v), and any decrease from the amounts stipulated in clauses (b)(iii), (b)(iv) and (b)(vi), shall serve to increase the Purchase Price. Correspondingly, any decrease from the amounts stipulated in clauses (b)(i), (b)(ii) and (b)(v) and any increase from the amounts stipulated in clauses (b)(iii), (b)(iv) and (b)(vi) shall serve to decrease the Purchase Price. The calculations made under this Section 3.1(c) shall utilize the same accounting principles and methodologies that were used in calculating the amounts set forth in clauses (b)(i) through (b)(vi) above.

(i)The aggregate amount of any increase to the Purchase Price shall be netted against the aggregate amount of any decrease in the Purchase Price. If this calculation shows an overall increase in the Purchase Price, then Buyer shall tender such sum to Seller in immediately available funds (in the same manner as the Closing Date payment is made) within two (2) Business Days. Alternatively, if this calculation shows an overall decrease in the Purchase Price, then Seller shall tender such sum to Buyer in immediately available funds (pursuant to wire transfer instructions to be provided from Buyer to Seller) within two (2) Business Days following Buyer providing its wire transfer instructions to Seller.

(ii)In the event that at the expiration of the forty-five (45) day period set forth above, the Parties are unable to agree on the reconciliation to the Purchase Price, then Seller shall engage its audit firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers, and Buyer shall engage its audit firm, Ernst & Young, to each send a single representative to meet with the other, review the data provided by Seller and Buyer, (and such additional data as either party’s representative may reasonably request) and jointly agree during the next thirty (30) days on the amount of the reconciliation to the Purchase Price in accordance with this Section 3.1 in particular and this Agreement in general. If, at the conclusion of this thirty (30) day period, the two representatives are unable to agree, then the average of the two determinations shall be deemed the adjustment to the Purchase Price, and final and binding on the Parties. The Parties intentionally wish to avoid any protracted and cumbersome process to make this determination, and have selected this methodology in an effort to have a prompt and efficient process. Absent fraud or demonstrable mathematical error, this methodology shall be the sole and exclusive means to determine any reconciliation to the Purchase Price for purposes of this Section 3, and the provisions of Section 12.11 shall not apply. Each Party shall be solely responsible for the fees and expenses of its respective representative.

(iii)For purposes of this Section 3.1, to the extent that any of the above, based on data received from Seller or Seller’s Affiliates, was denominated in Euro, the foreign exchange rate of Euros to Dollars as published in the Market Data Center page of The Wall Street Journal, as the “Exchange Rates: New York Closing Snapshot” as of the close of business on October 16, 2018 shall be used. In the event that between October 16, 2018 and the Closing Date, the foreign exchange rate from Euros to Dollars shall change, then the Parties shall bear the economic effect of such change equally on a 50:50 basis.

Buyer and Seller agree (and Seller shall cause Seller Affiliates to agree, as applicable) to allocate the Purchase Price (along with all other items of consideration and any other adjustments included in the determination of the purchase price of the Purchased Assets for income Tax purposes) in accordance with Schedule 3.2, which allocation shall be binding on the Seller and the Buyer, and Seller shall cause to be binding upon Seller’s Affiliates. The Parties shall report, prepare and file all Tax Returns (including, but not limited to IRS Form 8594) in all respects and for all purposes consistent with the allocation finally determined or agreed to pursuant to this Section 3.2, and each of the Parties shall prepare their respective Forms 8594 on a basis consistent therewith. No Party shall take any position (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) which is inconsistent with such allocation unless required to do so by applicable Law.

When each other Transaction Document to which Buyer is or will be a party has been duly executed and delivered by Buyer (assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each other party thereto), such Transaction Document will constitute a legal and binding obligation of Buyer enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

The execution, delivery and performance by Buyer of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which Buyer is a party, the performance by Buyer of its obligations hereunder or thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will not (a) violate, conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of Buyer’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws; or (b) violate, conflict with, result in any breach of, or constitute a default (or an event that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a default) under any Contract or Judgment to which Buyer is party or by which it is bound; or (c) violate any applicable law, statute, rule, ordinance or regulation of any Governmental Body.

Buyer acknowledges that it and its Representatives have been provided adequate access to the personnel, properties, premises, records and other documents and information of and relating to the Business for such purpose. Buyer has been represented by, and had the assistance of, counsel in the conduct of its due diligence, the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

All access and investigation pursuant to this Section 7.2(a) shall be (A) conducted during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to Seller (other than with respect to content in the

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, during the Pre-Closing Period, Seller shall not be required to provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would, in Seller’s reasonable judgment, (1) jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure of Seller or Amnis, (2) conflict with any (x) Law or Judgment applicable to Seller or Amnis or the assets, information or operation of the Business, (y) Contract to which Seller or Amnis is party or by which any of the assets or properties of Seller or Amnis are bound or (z) other obligation of confidentiality, or (3) result in the disclosure of competitively sensitive information; providing, however, that if Seller or its Representatives decide to invoke the foregoing provision, it shall so notify Buyer that it is so doing.

(b)Buyer will hold any information obtained pursuant to Section 7.2(a) in confidence in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

During the Pre-Closing Period, each Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any occurrence of which it is aware that is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Section 9 becoming incapable of being satisfied; provided, however, that either Party’s failure to give notice of any such occurrence as required pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall not be (a) deemed to be a breach of the covenant contained in this Section 7.3, but instead shall (if applicable) constitute only a breach of the applicable underlying representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, or (b) taken into account in determining whether the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 9 have been satisfied.

(a)During the Pre-Closing Period, Seller may deliver to Buyer supplements or amendments to the Schedules contemplated by or referenced in Section 5, which may disclose additional information which was not in Seller’s possession as the Agreement Date or, in the case of disclosures relating to representations given to the Seller’s Knowledge, were not within Seller’s Knowledge as of the Agreement Date (any such supplement or amendment, an “Update”). An Update shall include Seller’s good faith estimate of the Losses, if any, the matters disclosed in the Update would be reasonably expected to cause the Business to incur after the Agreement Date (the “Estimated Additional Losses”). No Update shall imply that Seller is making any representation or warranty as of the date of such Update. Any Update relating to Schedule 2.1(c)(iii) and Schedule 2.2(b) shall not be included in the calculations of Estimated Additional Losses.

(b)If the total Estimated Additional Losses for all Updates is less than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (the “Minor Interim Liability Threshold”), each such Update shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement for all purposes, including with respect to the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a).

(c)If the total Estimated Additional Losses for all Updates is greater than the Minor Interim Liability Threshold but less than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Significant Interim Liability Threshold”), then Seller shall have the right to seek to cure the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates for thirty (30) Business Days after the delivery of the final Update.

(i)If Seller has successfully cured the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates such that the total Estimated Additional Losses are less than the Minor Interim Liability Threshold, then each such Update shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement for all purposes, including with respect to the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a).

(ii)If Seller has not successfully cured the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates such that the total Estimated Additional Losses are less than the Minor Interim Liability Threshold, then (x) each such Update shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement for all purposes, including with respect to the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a) and (y) the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer for the Losses caused by the matters identified in all Updates in excess of the Minor

Interim Liability Threshold up to the Significant Interim Liability Threshold, and without application of the Seller Indemnification Threshold, the Seller Per Claim Threshold or the Retention Amount.

(d)If the total Estimated Additional Liability for all Updates is greater than the Significant Interim Liability Threshold but less than an amount that would constitute a Material Adverse Effect (the “Material Interim Liability Threshold”), then Seller shall have the right to seek to cure the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates, including, without limitation, by compensating Buyer for Losses caused by the matters disclosed in the Update, for thirty (30) Business Days after the delivery of the final Update.

(i)If Seller has successfully cured the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates such that the total Estimated Additional Losses are less than the Minor Interim Liability Threshold, then each such Update shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement for all purposes, including with respect to the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a).

(ii)If Seller has successfully cured the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates such that the total Estimated Additional Losses are less than the Significant Interim Liability Threshold (but not less than the Minor Interim Liability Threshold), then (x) each such Update shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement for all purposes, including with respect to the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a) and (y) the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer for the Losses caused by the matters identified in all Updates in excess of the Minor Interim Liability Threshold up to the Material Interim Liability Threshold, and without application of the Seller Indemnification Threshold, the Seller Per Claim Threshold or the Retention Amount.

(iii)If, after the cure periods described above, Seller has not successfully cured the matter(s) disclosed in the Updates such that the total Estimated Additional Losses are less than the Material Interim Liability Threshold, such that Buyer has its indemnity rights and Seller its indemnity obligations under clause (ii) (y) above, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1(d)(ii).

Subject to Section 7.6, Section 7.7 and Section 7.8, during the Pre-Closing Period, each of Buyer and Seller shall use reasonable best efforts (unless, with respect to any action, another standard of performance is expressly provided for herein) to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including satisfaction (but not waiver) of the conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 9.

(a)During the Pre-Closing Period, each of Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices to, and obtain all Consents (which may be conditioned on the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) from, all Persons required pursuant to any Assumed Contract; provided, however, that neither Party nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any obligation to (a) amend or modify any Assumed Contract, (b) pay any consideration to any Person for the purpose of obtaining any such Consent (other than minor payments called for in the underlying Assumed Contract), (c) relinquish or forbear any rights, or agree to any restriction on the conduct of any business or operations or the ownership or exercise of any assets, properties or rights or (d) pay any costs or expenses of any Person resulting from the process of obtaining such Consent (other than minor payments called for in the underlying Assumed Contract). For purposes of coordination of efforts and without modification to the preceding sentence, as between Seller and Buyer, the Party who is a named party in the Contract which, upon Closing will become an Assumed Contract, shall have the primary responsibility for seeking the Consent, and the other Party will provide its cooperation and assistance in that endeavor. To the extent a Consent has not been obtained from any Person required pursuant to any Assumed Contract prior to the Closing, each of Buyer and Seller shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to give all notices to, and obtain all Consents from, all such Persons required pursuant to such Assumed Contract.

(b)In the event that any counterparty to any Assumed Contract withholds, delays or conditions any Consent that is required for the transfer of such Assumed Contract and release of the Seller and/or its relevant Affiliate, Seller and Buyer shall economically treat each other, and accept to be treated, as if the transfer had been effected as of the Closing Date as set forth herein and no delay or withholding of a consent shall entitle any Party to withdraw from or delay the Closing, unless doing so would impose a material financial liability upon either Party or materially limit Buyer’s ability to operate the Business after Closing. Accordingly, and subject to the foregoing (i) Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) shall, as from the Closing Date, continue to perform the Assumed Contract with such non-consenting counterparty in its own name but for the account and risk, at the cost, and pursuant to the directions (as long as such directions do not violate the respective agreement or applicable law) of Buyer, (ii) Buyer, as from the Closing Date, shall provide Seller (and/or, at Seller’s direction, any of Seller’s Affiliates) (at such

point of time as reasonably required under the relevant Assumed Contract) with any goods, services or support necessary to enable the Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) to perform such agreement and (iii) all the rights of Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) under such Assumed Contract shall be assigned to Buyer and all Liabilities and obligations of the Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) shall be assumed by the Buyer at no additional cost to the Buyer, in each case as from the Closing Date.

(c)If such assignment is not permitted, however, Seller shall promptly pass-on to the Buyer any monies or other benefits received by it or any of its Affiliates under such non-transferred Assumed Contract relating to the period and activities from and after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall promptly pass-on to the Seller any monies or other benefits received under such non-transferred Assumed Contract relating to the period and activities prior to the Closing Date. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as effecting an assignment of a right that is not permitted to be made under the terms and the Law applicable to such right.

(d)In the event that any counterparty to an Assumed Contract should delay or withhold any Consent that is required for the transfer of an Assumed Contract, Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) shall be entitled to terminate such Assumed Contract, subject to the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, unless doing so would materially disrupt ongoing operations of the Business. Twelve months after the Closing Date, Seller (and/or its relevant Affiliate) shall be entitled to terminate any such Assumed Contract at any time without the consent of and without any consideration due to the Buyer.

(a)During the Pre-Closing Period, each of Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Contracts set forth on Schedule 7.7(a) (the “Shared Contracts”) to be replaced with separate Contracts for each of Buyer (for the part of the Shared Contract that relates to the Business) and Seller (for the remainder of the Shared Contract).

(b)If the Parties are not able to effect the separation of a Shared Contract prior to the Closing, then, until any such Shared Contract is separated, to the extent permissible under applicable Law and under the terms of such Shared Contract, Sections 7.6 (b) through (d) shall apply mutatis mutandis.

(a)Prior to the Closing, the Parties will keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all required consents, authorizations, orders or approvals of, or any exemptions by, any Governmental Body, including by working cooperatively in connection with any sales, divestitures or dispositions of assets or businesses if and to the extent undertaken pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.8. In this regard, prior to the Closing, each Party will promptly consult with the other Party to provide any necessary information with respect to (and, in the case of correspondence, provide the other Party (or their counsel) copies of) all filings made by such Party with any Governmental Body or any other information supplied by such Party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Body in connection with this Agreement. Each Party will promptly inform the other Party, and if in writing, furnish the other Party with copies of (or, in the case of material oral communications, advise the other Party orally of) any communication from any Governmental Body regarding any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and permit the other Party to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other Party in connection with, any proposed written (or any material proposed oral) communication with any such Governmental Body. If any Party or any representative of such Party receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Body with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then such Party will use its best efforts to make, or cause to be made, promptly and after consultation with the other Party, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. The Buyer will not participate in any meeting with any Governmental Body in connection with this Agreement (or make oral submissions at meetings or in telephone or other conversations) unless it consults with Seller in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Body, gives representatives of Seller the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. Each Party will furnish the other Party with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between it and any such Governmental Body with respect to this Agreement, and furnish the other Party with such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings or submissions of information to any such Governmental Body. The Parties may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other Party under this Section 7.8 as “outside counsel and corporate in-house antitrust counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein will be given only to the outside legal counsel and corporate in-house antitrust counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel and corporate in-house antitrust counsel to the directors, officers or employees (other than corporate in-house antitrust counsel) of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials or its legal counsel; provided that materials provided pursuant to this Section 7.8 may be redacted to remove references concerning the

valuation of the Business, discussion of the terms or potential terms of the transactions described in this Agreement and the terms of other potential competitive transactions (if any), and otherwise, as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and as necessary to address reasonable privilege and confidentiality considerations. To the extent that transfers of any permits issued by any Governmental Body are required as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the Parties will use their respective best efforts to effect such transfers.

(b)The Parties will use their respective best efforts to file, as promptly as practicable but in any event no later than 10 Business Days after the Agreement Date, if and as required by Law, any filings or notifications under any applicable Competition Laws. In the event that the Parties receive a request for additional information or documentary materials after any such filing or notification (a “Competition Request”), the Parties will use their respective best efforts to respond to such Competition Request as promptly as practicable and counsel for the Parties will closely cooperate during the entirety of any such Competition Request review process.

(c)Buyer agrees to provide such security and assurances as to financial capability, resources and creditworthiness as may be reasonably requested by any Governmental Body or other third party whose consent or approval is sought in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Whether or not the Closing occurs, Buyer will be responsible for all fees and payments (including filing fees and legal and professional fees) to any third party or any Governmental Body in order to obtain any consents, approvals or waivers pursuant to this Section 7.8, other than the fees of and payments to the legal and professional advisors of Seller and Seller Affiliates.

(d)Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, acquire or agree to acquire by merging or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation could 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 Body necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) increase the risk of any Governmental Body entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

For a period consistent with such Party’s record retention policies, but of not less than seven (7) years duration, each of Buyer and Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (a) give Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, and its Representatives reasonable access to (i) its Representatives, including employees, and (ii) to the extent relating to the Business (and, in the case of Books and Records held by Seller, separable from the Books and Records relating to any other businesses of Seller without imposing an unreasonable burden or cost on Seller), Books and Records and other information with respect to the Business relating to periods prior to the Closing, in each case for any reasonable purpose, including as may be necessary for (A) the preparation of Tax Returns and financial statements and (B) complying with any audit request, subpoena or other investigative demand by any Governmental Body or for any Legal Proceeding, subject in all cases to reasonable restrictions imposed from time to time upon advice of counsel in respect of applicable Laws relating to the confidentiality of information (including any Competition Laws), and (b) maintain all such Books and Records in accordance with such Party’s record retention policies. All access provided pursuant to this Section 7.9 shall be (A) conducted during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to the Party providing access, (B) conducted in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the normal operations of the businesses of the Party providing access, (C) conducted at the accessing Party’s sole cost and expense (including any costs and expenses for making copies of Books and Records), and the Party providing access shall have the right to have one or more of its Representatives present at all times during any visits, examinations, discussions or contacts contemplated by this Section 7.9. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Buyer nor Seller shall be required to provide access or disclose information where such access or disclosure would, in the reasonable judgment of the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure, (1) jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other immunity or protection from disclosure of the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure, (2) conflict with any (x) Law (including any Law relating to data protection) or Judgment applicable to the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure or the assets, information or operation of the businesses of the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure, (y) Contract to which the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure is party or by which any of the assets or properties of the Party otherwise required to provide such access or disclosure is bound or (z) other obligation of confidentiality, or (3) result in the disclosure of competitively sensitive information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) if the Parties are in an adversarial relationship in any Legal Proceeding, the furnishing of information, documents or records in accordance with this Section 7.9 shall be subject to any applicable rules relating to discovery and (y) any and all such Books and Records may be destroyed by a Party if such destroying Party sends to the other Party written notice of its intent to destroy such Books and Records, specifying in reasonable detail the contents of the Books and Records to be destroyed; such records may then be destroyed after the sixtieth (60th) day following such notice unless the other Party notifies the destroying Party that such other Party desires to obtain possession of such Books and Records, in which event the destroying Party shall transfer such Books and Records to such requesting Party and such requesting Party shall pay all reasonable expenses of the destroying Party in connection therewith.

After the Closing Date, each Party shall provide the other Party with such reasonable assistance as may be requested by the other Party in connection with any Legal Proceeding or audit of any kind or nature whatsoever or the preparation of any response, demand, inquiry, filing, disclosure or the like (including, but not limited to, any tax return or form) relating to the Purchased Assets or the Business. Seller shall make available to Buyer upon written request by Buyer such data, documents and other information as may reasonably be required for the preparation and filing of all Straddle Period or Post-Closing Tax Returns, or for the conduct of any Tax Matter.

The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference as if set forth herein and, notwithstanding the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms except that, upon the Closing, Buyer’s obligations thereunder with respect to Evaluation Material (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), to the extent relating to the Business, shall terminate. With respect to Evaluation Material that does not relate to the Business, such Evaluation Material shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. With respect to Representatives of Buyer that, prior to the Closing, were Representatives of Seller, nothing in this Section 7.11 shall vitiate such Representative’s confidentiality obligations owed to Seller as a consequence of such Representative’s former employment with Seller.

(a)Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, acting alone, as a member of any partnership or other business entity, as a holder of capital stock of any class or otherwise, employ, engage or solicit for employment or engagement any Transferred Employee during the two (2) year period commencing on the Closing Date.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7.12 shall be deemed to preclude Seller (or any of its Affiliates) from:

(i)in the event that any Transferred Employee (A) is terminated by Buyer or Amnis or any of their respective Affiliates following the Closing Date (either with or without cause) or (B) has terminated his or her employment or engagement with Buyer or Amnis or any of their respective Affiliates following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly recruiting, hiring or otherwise soliciting for employment or engagement any such Transferred Employee in connection with a business venture by Seller or any of its Affiliates that is not competitive with the Business so long as, in the case of clause (B) above, such Transferred Employee has not been employed or engaged by Buyer, Amnis or any of their respective Affiliates for at least three (3) months prior to such recruiting, hiring or solicitation; or

(ii)recruiting, engaging or hiring any Transferred Employee following the Closing Date when such Transferred Employee responds to any general solicitation of employment published in a journal, newspaper or other publication of general circulation (including the internet and other electronic media), which solicitation is not specifically directed towards any such Transferred Employee.

(c)It is the desired intent of the Parties that the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.12 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible in each jurisdiction, worldwide, in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, the Parties agree that if the covenants set forth in this Section 7.12 are deemed by any court or arbitrator to be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the court or arbitrator may reduce the scope thereof or otherwise amend or reform the portion thus adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such reduction, amendment or reformation to apply only with respect to the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

(d)Seller acknowledges that Buyer may have no adequate remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 7.12 and, accordingly, Seller agrees that Buyer shall, in addition to the other remedies that may be available to Buyer hereunder or at Law, be entitled to seek an injunction temporarily or permanently enjoining Seller or any of its Affiliates from breaching such covenants and agreements, without the necessity of posting a bond.

(a)Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of Buyer to, offer employment effective on the Closing Date, to all Non-Amnis Current Employees which are listed on Schedule 5.18(a). (For purposes of this Agreement, the “Transferred Employees” means all Amnis Current Employees who are transferred to Amnis prior to the Closing and all Non-Amnis Current Employees who accept such offer of employment from Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate.)

(b)During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing (or if earlier, the date of the Transferred Employee’s termination of employment with Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer), Buyer shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of Buyer to, provide each Transferred Employee with: (i) base salary, hourly wages and/or commission rate (as applicable) which are no less than the base salary, hourly wages and/or commission rates provided immediately prior to the Closing; (ii) incentive compensation opportunities (including, but not limited to, long-term incentive plan benefits), if any, which are no less favorable in the aggregate than the incentive compensation opportunities provided immediately prior to the Closing; (iii) benefits under any applicable Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Plan that are no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided immediately prior to the Closing; (iv) for Transferred Employees who are absent on the Closing Date due to family leave, medical, short-term disability or other approved leave of absence, continuation of the Transferred Employee’s approved leave of absence on terms equivalent to those approved by Seller prior to the Closing Date; and (v) severance benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the practice, plan, policy or agreement in effect for such Transferred Employee immediately prior to the Closing.

(c)With respect to any Employee Benefit Plan and/or Foreign Plan maintained for the benefit of any Transferred Employee, effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, recognize all service of the Transferred Employees, as if such service were with Buyer, for vesting, eligibility and for vacation accrual purposes; provided, however, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (x) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or (y) such service was not recognized under the corresponding Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Plan. Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliate to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any and all pre-existing conditions (or actively at work or similar limitations), eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under any group health plans to be waived with respect to the Transferred Employees and their eligible dependents, and provide them with credit for any co-payments, deductibles, and offsets (or similar payments) made during the plan year to the extent reflected in records provided to Buyer for the purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible, out-of-pocket, or similar requirements under any Employee Benefit Plan or Foreign Plan, programs or arrangements in which they are eligible to participate after the Closing Date.

(d)Effective as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Seller, Amnis or any applicable Affiliate of Seller, shall effect a transfer of assets and liabilities (including outstanding loans) from the defined contribution retirement plan that it maintains to the defined contribution retirement plan maintained by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, with respect to the Transferred Employees, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any unvested account balances for Transferred Employees shall be deemed fully vested immediately prior to such transfer. Any such transfer shall be made in accordance with Section 414(l) of the Internal Revenue Code or any applicable foreign Laws. Upon the transfer of assets and liabilities into Buyer’s plan, all transferred account balances from Seller’s or Amnis’ plan shall become fully vested. The Buyer’s plan shall assume and honor the terms of all qualified domestic relations orders in effect under the Seller’s or Amnis’ plan with respect to the transferred accounts of the Transferred Employees under the Internal Revenue Code or any applicable foreign Laws.

(e)Effective as of the Closing, the Transferred Employees shall cease active participation in the Employee Benefit Plans and Foreign Plans, as applicable and for purposes of the Merck Long Term Incentive Plan, all eligible Transferred Employees who are participating in the Merck Long Term Incentive Plan shall be treated as good leavers entitled to pro-rated payments following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall not be liable for any such payments under the Merck Long Term Incentive Plan. Seller or the applicable Affiliate of Seller shall remain liable for all eligible claims for benefits under the Employee Benefit Plans and Foreign Plans that are incurred by the Current Employees prior to the Closing Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the following claims shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (i) life, accidental death and dismemberment, short-term disability, and workers’ compensation insurance benefits, on the event giving rise to such benefits; (ii) medical, vision, dental, and prescription drug benefits, on the date the applicable services, materials or supplies were provided; and (iii) long-term disability benefits, on the eligibility date determined by the long-term disability insurance carrier for the plan in which the applicable Current Employee participates.

(f)Buyer and Seller intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Transferred Employee, solely for purposes of any Employee Benefit Plan and/or Foreign Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits, and that each such Transferred Employee will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing, assuming, for purposes of Current Employees who are Non-Amnis Current Employees, that they have accepted Buyer’s offer of employment. Buyer shall be liable and hold Seller and its Affiliates harmless for (i) any statutory, common law, contractual or other severance with respect to any Non-Amnis Current Employee who has received an offer of employment by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer on terms that are less favorable in the aggregate than those provided immediately prior to the Closing by Seller and its Affiliates and declines such offer; (ii) fifty percent (50%) of any statutory, common law, contractual or other severance with respect to any Current Employee who is not located in the United States who has received an offer of employment by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer on

terms that are equivalent in the aggregate than those provided immediately prior to the Closing by Seller and its Affiliates and declines such offer not to exceed One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and (iii) any claims relating to the employment of any Transferred Employee arising in connection with or following the Closing.

(g)This Section 7.13 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the Parties, and nothing in this Section 7.13, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 7.13. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 7.32 shall not create any right in any Transferred Employee or any other Person to any continued employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

Buyer and its Affiliates will not amend, waive or otherwise modify the R&W Policy in any manner that would allow the insurer thereunder to subrogate or otherwise make or bring any action against Seller or any of its successors or assigns arising out of, or related to, this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement.

The Parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer.

(a)Within twelve (12) months of the Closing Date, Buyer, at its sole cost and expense and upon reasonable notice to Seller, shall remove all tangible assets that constitute Purchased Assets located at sites of the Seller or any of its Affiliates other than the Seattle Real Property (collectively, the “Buyer Removed Assets”) from such locations. Seller shall cooperate (or shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate) with such removal. Such removal shall be done in such manner as to avoid any damage to such facility and any disruption of the business conducted by Seller or its Affiliates after the Closing. Any damage to the facilities from such removal shall be paid by Buyer. Should Buyer fail to timely remove the Buyer Removed Assets as required by this Section 7.16(a), Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation: (a) to remove the Buyer Removed Assets at Buyer’s sole cost and expense; (b) to store the Buyer Removed Assets and to charge Buyer all storage costs associated therewith; (c) to treat the Buyer Removed Assets as unclaimed and to proceed to dispose of the same under the Laws governing unclaimed property; or (d) to exercise any other right or remedy conferred by this Agreement or otherwise available by Law. In addition, within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, Buyer, at its sole cost and expense and upon reasonable notice to Seller, shall remove the Affiliated Inventory from the applicable location.

(b)Within twelve (12) months of the Closing Date, Seller, at its sole cost and expense and upon reasonable notice to Buyer, shall remove the SMCxPro instruments and related SMCxPro raw materials, assets SMCxPro Software and manufacturing protocols located at the Seattle Real Property (collectively, the “Seller Removed Assets”) from the such facility. Buyer shall cooperate (or shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate) with such removal. Such removal shall be done in such manner as to avoid any damage to such facility and any disruption of the business conducted by Buyer or its Affiliates after the Closing. Any damage to the facilities from such removal shall be paid by Seller. Should Seller fail to timely remove the Seller Removed Assets as required by this Section 7.16(b), Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation: (a) to remove the Seller Removed Assets at Seller’s sole cost and expense; (b) to store the Seller Removed Assets and to charge Seller all storage costs associated therewith; (c) to treat the Seller Removed Assets as unclaimed and to proceed to dispose of the same under the Laws governing unclaimed property; or (d) to exercise any other right or remedy conferred by this Agreement or otherwise available by Law.

To the extent permitted under applicable Laws including, without limitation, Competition Laws, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Agreement Date:

(a)Seller and Buyer shall each appoint a steering committee to have responsibility for overseeing any issues relating to the Carve-Out Activities and the transition of the Business to the Buyer (the “Seller Steering Committee” and the “Buyer Steering Committee”, respectively). The Steering Committees shall act as final escalation body for any topics that the Carve-out Management Officers, Transition Management Officers and/or MS Management Officers cannot solve between themselves. For that purpose, each Steering Committee shall co-ordinate regular or ad hoc meetings (which may be held by

telephone), and shall, where appropriate, also have joint Steering Committee meetings. Either Party may replace any member of its Steering Committee at any time by providing the other Party with written notice thereof identifying the successor.

(b)Seller and Buyer shall each appoint a representative to have primary responsibility and oversight over the planning and coordination of the Carve-Out Activities (the “Seller Carve-Out Management Officer” and the “Buyer Carve-Out Management Officer”, respectively). The Carve-Out Management Officers shall (i) co-ordinate regular meetings (which may be conducted by telephone) as reasonably necessary for the effective planning and coordination of the Carve-Out Activities, and (ii) provide their respective Steering Committee with regular status updates relating to the Carve-Out Activities. Either Party may replace its Carve-Out Management Officer at any time by providing the other Party with written notice thereof identifying the successor.

(c)Seller and Buyer shall each appoint a representative to have primary responsibility and oversight over the planning and coordination of transitional services for the Business from and after Closing (the “Seller TS Management Officer” and the “Buyer TS Management Officer”, respectively). The TS Management Officers shall (i) co-ordinate regular meetings (which may be conducted by telephone) as reasonably necessary for the effective planning and coordination of transitional services for the Business after Closing, and (ii) provide their respective Steering Committee with regular status updates relating to the transitional services for the Business after Closing. Either Party may replace its TS Management Officer at any time by providing the other Party with written notice thereof identifying the successor.

(d)Seller and Buyer shall each appoint a representative to have primary responsibility and oversight over the planning and coordination of manufacturing and supply transitional services for the Business from and after Closing (the “Seller MS Management Officer” and the “Buyer MS Management Officer”, respectively). The MS Management Officers shall (i) co-ordinate regular meetings (which may be conducted by telephone) as reasonably necessary for the effective planning and coordination of manufacturing and supply transitional services for the Business after Closing, and (ii) provide their respective Steering Committee with regular status updates relating to the manufacturing and supply transitional services for the Business after Closing. Either Party may replace its MS Management Officer at any time by providing the other Party with written notice thereof identifying the successor.

Seller and Buyer may each, from time to time, appoint additional individuals to coordinate other issues relating to the Carve-Out Activities, the transition of the Business to the Buyer and/or the transitional services that may be provided to the Business after Closing.

(a)For six (6) years after the Closing Date, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless, and provide advancement of expenses to, all past and present directors, officers and employees of Amnis to the same extent such Persons are indemnified or have the right to advancement of expenses as of the Closing Date by Amnis pursuant to Amnis’ certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or similar organizational documents) in existence on the Closing Date with, or for the benefit of, any such directors, officers and employees for acts or omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing Date.

(b)In the event that all or substantially all of the assets or all of the shares of capital stock of Amnis is sold, whether in one transaction or a series of transactions, then Buyer will ensure that the successors and assigns of Amnis assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.18.

Notwithstanding Section 12.9, the provisions of this Section 7.18 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by Contract or otherwise.

Buyer shall be responsible for the full and timely payment of all transfer, sales and use, value-added, ad-valorem and documentary Taxes, filing and recordation fees, customs duties and similar charges relating to the sale or transfer of the Purchased Assets hereunder, and for the filing of all Tax Returns related thereto, excluding any income, gross receipts, business and occupation, or similar Taxes imposed on Seller. Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all Taxes and any Losses arising from or related to Buyer’s failure to: (a) pay any such Taxes, fees or charges, or (b) file any such Tax Return.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including but not limited to attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred.

Except for transfer Taxes (which are addressed in Section 8.1), all real property Taxes, personal property Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Purchased Assets (the “Straddle Period Taxes”) for a taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date based on the number of days of such taxable period ending on but not including the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the number of days of such taxable period beginning on and including the Closing Date through the end of such taxable period (the “Post-Closing Straddle Period”). Seller shall be liable for Pre-Closing Straddle Period Taxes and Buyer shall be liable for Post-Closing Straddle Period Taxes.

The Seller does not consent to, and no Party shall be permitted to make, an election, if permitted, under either Internal Revenue Code Section 336(e) or 338(h)(10) (or any corresponding election under state, local or foreign Law) in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, Buyer shall not make any other elections, filings, or other similar type items (including entity classification elections) that would cause a change in the Pre-Closing Tax Period treatment of any item by the Seller, unless any of the foregoing is required by Law or is in connection with a breach of a representation or warranty of Seller.

The respective obligations of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by both Buyer and Seller), at or prior to the Closing, of the following conditions:

(a)Any applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) or Consent required under any of the Competition Laws or Laws with respect to foreign investment set forth in Schedule 9.1(a) shall have expired or been terminated or obtained, as applicable.

(b)No Governmental Body shall have enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any Law or Judgment that is in effect and would (i) make the Closing illegal or (ii) otherwise prohibit or enjoin consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The obligations of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by Buyer) of each of the following conditions at or prior to the Closing:

(a)Each representation and warranty contained in Section 5 shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Closing Date, except that any such representations and warranties that are specifically made as of a particular date shall be true and correct as of such date, except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)Seller shall have performed and complied in all material respects with the agreements and covenants required to be performed or complied with by it on or prior to the Closing Date.

(c)Seller shall have delivered to Buyer all of the items required by Section 4.3.

The obligations of Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by Seller) of each of the following conditions at or prior to the Closing:

(a)Each representation and warranty contained in Section 6 shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the Closing Date, except that any such representations and warranties that are specifically made as of a particular date shall be true and correct as of such date, except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be true and correct would not have a material adverse effect on Buyer’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)Buyer shall have performed and complied in all material respects with the agreements and covenants required to be performed or complied with by it on or prior to the Closing Date.

(c)Buyer shall have delivered to Seller all of the items required by Section 4.4.

No Party may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in this Section 9 to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such Party’s failure to use the efforts required pursuant to this Agreement to cause the Closing to occur, including as required by Section 7.5, Section 7.6, Section 7.7 and Section 7.8.

At any time prior to the Closing, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby abandoned as follows (and the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1 (other than Section 10.1(a)) shall give written notice of such termination to the other Party setting forth a brief description of the basis on which it is terminating this Agreement):

(a)by the mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller;

(b)by either Buyer or Seller, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before February 28, 2019 or such other date that Buyer and Seller may agree upon in writing (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(b) shall not be available to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, if a material breach of this Agreement by such Party has resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur before the Termination Date;

(c)by either Buyer or Seller, if (i) there shall be any Law enacted, promulgated or issued by any Governmental Body that makes consummation of the Closing illegal or otherwise prohibited or (ii) any Governmental Body shall have issued a Judgment permanently enjoining the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such Judgment shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) shall have fully complied with its obligations under Section 7.5 and Section 7.8 to contest and remove such Law or Judgment;

(d)by Buyer, (i) if (A) there shall have been a breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein that would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.2 to be satisfied, (B) Buyer is not then in breach of any provision of this Agreement and (C) such breach by Seller (1) shall not have been cured on or prior to the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) thirty (30) Business Days after receipt by Seller of written notice of such breach from Buyer, and (2) in the case of the foregoing clause (1)(x), cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or (ii) in the circumstances provided in Section 7.4(d)(iii); or

(e)by Seller, (i) if (A) there shall have been a breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein that would result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 9.1 or Section 9.3 to be satisfied, (B) Seller is not then in breach of any provision of this Agreement and (C) such breach by Buyer (1) shall not have been cured on or prior to the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) thirty (30) Business Days after receipt by Buyer of written notice of such breach from Seller, and (2) in the case of the foregoing clause (1)(x), cannot be cured prior to the Termination Date or (ii) in the circumstances provided in Section 7.4(d)(iii).

In the event of the termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 10:

(a)this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void (except for this Section 10.2 (Effect of Termination), Section 12.1 (Public Announcements), Section 7.11 (Confidentiality) and Section 12 (Miscellaneous), each of which shall survive such termination and remain valid and binding obligations of the Parties in accordance with their terms); and

(b)there shall be no Liability of any kind on the part of Buyer or Seller or any of Buyer’s or Seller’s former, current or future Affiliates, Representatives, officers, directors, direct or indirect general or limited partners, equityholders, stockholders, controlling persons, managers or members; provided, however, that termination pursuant to this Section 10 shall not relieve either Party from such Liability (i) pursuant to the Sections specified in Section 10.2(a) that survive termination or (ii) for any willful (in the sense that such action was both intentional and known to be a violation of this Agreement) and material breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. For purposes of clarification, the Parties agree that if Buyer does not close the transactions contemplated hereby in circumstances in which the closing conditions set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 have been satisfied or waived, and unless Buyer had the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, then such election shall be deemed to be a willful breach of this Agreement and that Seller shall retain all rights and remedies against Buyer relating to a willful breach by Buyer, including specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.7 and recovery of monetary damages. In determining Losses or damages recoverable upon termination by a Party for another Party’s breach, the Parties acknowledge and agree that such Losses and damages shall not be limited to reimbursement of expenses or out-of-pocket costs and shall include the benefit of the bargain lost by such Party taking into consideration relevant matters, including other opportunities and the time value of money, which shall be deemed to be damages payable to such Party.

All representations and warranties of Seller and Buyer contained in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the date or dates specified in the R&W Policy with respect to the time periods, including the time periods within which to make claims and/or regarding which any Buyer Indemnified Parties may obtain recoveries under such policy shall govern claims and/or recoveries under such policy. None of the covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date other than those which by their terms contemplate performance after the Closing Date, and each such surviving covenant and agreement shall survive the Closing for the period contemplated by its terms, including, without limitation, those contemplated by Sections 7.10, 7.11, 7.12, 7.13, 7.14, 7.16 and 7.17.

From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective equityholders, members, partners, successors and assigns (the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and shall reimburse Buyer Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses arising out of or in connection with:

(a)any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement;

(b)any failure by Seller to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement in this Agreement;

(c)any Liabilities of Seller or its Affiliates not assumed by Buyer hereunder; and

(d)any amounts for which any Buyer Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification under Section 7.4(c)(ii) or Section 7.4(d)(ii);

provided, in each case, that the relevant Buyer Indemnified Party has submitted to Seller a Claim Notice for indemnification in respect thereof in accordance with Section 11.5 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified in Section 11.1, in which case any claim that is the subject of such Claim Notice shall survive until finally resolved or judicially determined.

From and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and their respective equityholders, members, partners, successors and assigns (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and shall reimburse Seller Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses arising out of or in connection with:

(a)any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement;

(b)any failure by Buyer to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement in this Agreement, including the failure to timely satisfy and discharge the Assumed Liabilities; and

(c)the conduct of the Business, the ownership or operation of the Purchased Assets, the performance of the Assumed Contracts and the sale of products and services on and after the Closing Date, unless and then only to the extent attributable to a breach by Seller of the provisions of Sections 11.2(a) or (b) above;

provided, in each case, that the relevant Seller Indemnified Party has submitted to Buyer a Claim Notice for indemnification in respect thereof in accordance with Section 11.5 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified

in Section 11.1, in which case any claim that is the subject of such Claim Notice shall survive until finally resolved or judicially determined.

(a)Seller shall not be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 11.2(a) and 11.2(b) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 11.2(a) and 11.2(b) exceeds Three Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($375,000) (the “Seller Indemnification Threshold”), and once the Seller Indemnification Threshold has been exceeded, Seller shall only be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay and reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses in excess of the Seller Indemnification Threshold (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.4(b) and Section 11.4(c)).

(b)Seller shall not be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties under Section 11.2(a) and 11.2(b) unless and until the amount of Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 11.2(a) and 11.2(b) arising out of any particular inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty of Seller or breach of any covenant of Seller in this Agreement exceeds Twenty Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) (the “Seller Per Claim Threshold”), and once the Seller Per Claim Threshold has been exceeded, Seller shall only be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay and reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties for Losses with respect to such Claim in excess of the Seller Per Claim Threshold (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.4(a) and Section 11.4(c)) and such Losses below the Seller Per Claim Threshold shall not be counted toward the Seller Indemnification Threshold.

(c)Seller shall not be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties (i) under Section 11.2(a) from and after the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 11.2(a) exceeds Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) of which the Buyer shall bear the first 50% and the Seller shall bear the following 50% (the “Retention Amount”) (for the avoidance of doubt, the maximum aggregate amount of payments required to be made by Seller pursuant to Section 11.2(a) shall not exceed Three Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($375,000) and after which point Seller will have no obligation to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party under this Section 11.4(c)(i) or Section 11.2(a) from and against further such Losses (except in the case of fraud) and any further Losses will be exclusively addressed by the R&W Policy and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein), or (ii) under Section 11.2(b) from and after the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 11.1(a) and Section 11.2(b) together exceeds the Purchase Price (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the maximum aggregate amount of payments required to be made by Seller pursuant to Section 11.2(a) and Section 11.2(b) together shall not exceed the Purchase Price).

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except pursuant to Section 10.2(b) above or (in each case) to the extent such Losses are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be owed to a non-Affiliated third party in connection with a Third Party Claim, in no event shall Buyer or Seller be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse any Indemnified Party under this Section 11 or otherwise be liable in connection with this Agreement, the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby, for any Losses that are punitive, incidental, consequential, special or indirect, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, diminution of value and any damages based on any type of multiple, in each case, in any way arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether at law or in equity, and whether in contract or in tort or otherwise).

(e)The amount of any Losses that are subject to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Section 11 shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds (other than under the R&W Policy) and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Indemnified Party in respect of such Losses or any of the events, conditions, facts or circumstances resulting in or relating to such Losses (“Third Party Payments”). If an Indemnified Party receives any Third Party Payment with respect to any Losses for which it has previously been indemnified (directly or indirectly) by an Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days after receiving such Payment) pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to such Third Party Payment or, if it is a lesser amount, the amount of such previously indemnified Losses. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements (other than this Agreement) for any Losses to the same extent such Party would if such Losses were not subject to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement hereunder. Upon making any payment of a claim for indemnification to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses pursuant to this Section 11, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party against any third party in respect of the Losses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights.

(f)The amount of any Losses that are subject to indemnification, payment or reimbursement under this Section 11 shall be reduced by an amount equal to any Tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of such Losses during the three (3) year period following Closing. An Indemnified Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any Tax benefit within such three (3) year period following Closing. A Tax benefit is realized by an Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses for which it has previously been indemnified (directly or indirectly) by an Indemnifying Party upon filing by the Indemnified Party of a Tax Return claiming the applicable Losses, provided that if the applicable Losses are disallowed upon later audit by a Governmental Body, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to claw-back from the Indemnifying Party the amount of any such previously paid but later disallowed Tax benefit. The Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after such Tax benefit is realized) pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to such Tax benefit or, if it is a lesser amount, the amount of such previously indemnified Losses; and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after written claim therefor is made by the Indemnified Party) pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the disallowed Tax benefit.

(g)Each Indemnified Party shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue all legal rights and remedies available in order to mitigate and minimize any Losses subject to indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 promptly upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to constitute or give rise to such Losses.

(h)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Indemnifying Party be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse any Indemnified Party for Losses under this Section 11 to the extent such Losses were paid by any party pursuant to Section 8.

(a)All claims for indemnification pursuant to this Section 11 shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 11.5. A Person entitled to assert a claim for indemnification (a “Claim”) pursuant to this Section 11 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice of any such Claim (a “Claim Notice”), which notice shall include a description in reasonable detail of (i) the basis for, and nature of, such Claim, including the facts constituting the basis for such Claim, and (ii) the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. Any Claim Notice shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party, (A) in the case of a Claim in connection with any Legal Proceeding made or brought by any Person (other than a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party in connection with this Agreement) against such Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), promptly, but in any event not later than five (5) Business Days, following receipt of service of process of the commencement of such Legal Proceeding, and (B) in the case of a Claim other than a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), promptly, but in no event later than Buyer making a claim on the R&W policy; provided, however, that no failure to give such prompt written notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, by the waiver of available defenses against third parties or otherwise. The Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party will cooperate in good faith to resolve any such Claim. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indemnifying Party” means Buyer (in the case of a claim for indemnification by a Seller Indemnified Party) or Seller (in the case of a claim for indemnification by a Buyer Indemnified Party).

(b)With respect to any Third Party Claim, subject to the various rights of the carriers under the express terms of the R&W Policy, the Indemnifying Party, provided that the legal counsel it selects has no existing conflict of interest with the Indemnified Party, shall have the right, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Claim Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim, to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense with counsel of its choosing, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense if the Third Party Claim does not exceed the Retention Amount. The assumption of control of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party shall not constitute an acknowledgment or admission by the Indemnifying Party that a Liability exists to the third party. The Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, that is not controlling such defense shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to control the defense of such Third Party Claim (including by failing to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to control such defense in accordance with this Section 11.5(b)), the Indemnified Party may control the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choosing, and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction in which the Indemnified Party reasonably determines counsel is required. Each of Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by retaining and providing to the Party controlling such defense records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim and making available employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Indemnified Party or

Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, that is controlling such defense shall keep the other Party reasonably advised of the status of such Legal Proceeding and the defense thereof.

(c)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) an Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and the carriers under the express terms of the R&W Policy, unless such settlement would (A) include a complete and unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect thereto, (B) not impose any Liability (including any equitable remedies) on the Indemnified Party other than as a result of the limitations set forth in Section 11.4(a) and Section 11.4(b) and (C) not involve a finding or admission of any wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnified Party, and (ii) an Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and the carriers under the express terms of the R&W Policy.

Any amount payable by Buyer (in the case of a claim for indemnification by a Seller Indemnified Party) shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Seller Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following the final determination of the claim for indemnification giving rise to such payment obligation. Any amount payable by Seller (in the case of a claim for indemnification by a Buyer Indemnified Party) shall be satisfied as follows: (a) first, out of the portion of the Retention Amount not previously distributed, if any, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Buyer Indemnified Party within five (5) Business Days following the final determination of the claim for indemnification giving rise to such payment obligation, and (b) thereafter, pursuant to the R&W Policy and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein.

The Parties acknowledge that it may be impossible to measure in money the damages that a Party would incur if any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms and agree that each of the Parties shall be entitled to obtain an injunction to require specific performance of, and prevent any violation of the terms of, this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy available hereunder. In any such action specifically to enforce any provision of this Agreement, each Party hereby waives any claim or defense therein that an adequate remedy at law or in damages exists.

All indemnification payments made under this Section 11 shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

The indemnification and specific performance remedies set forth under this Section 11 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties with respect to any matters arising under or relating to this Agreement. The foregoing sentence shall not modify any rights any Buyer Indemnified Party may have under the R&W Policy.

Other than an agreed press release to be made upon the Agreement Date, the contents of which the Parties may agree prior to the Agreement Date, each Party agrees not to make any public announcement in regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents without the other Party’s prior written consent, except as may be required by Law, in which case the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to coordinate with each other with respect to the timing, form and content of such required disclosures.

If any court determines that any part or provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, then the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall be given full force and effect and remain binding upon the Parties. Furthermore, the court shall have the power to replace the invalid or unenforceable part or provision with a provision that accomplishes, to the extent possible, the original business purpose of such part or provision in a valid and enforceable manner. Such replacement shall apply only with respect to the particular jurisdiction in which the adjudication is made.

This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any manner, except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Parties. No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. No waiver by any Party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. The failure of any Party to enforce at any time any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of any such provision, or in any way affect the right of such Party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. The course of conduct or course of dealing of the Parties shall not operate to be an amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of this Section.

For purposes of this Agreement, (a) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; and (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole. Unless the context otherwise requires, references herein: (x) to Sections, Schedules and Exhibits mean the Sections of, and Schedules and exhibits attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. This Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the Party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The Schedules and exhibits referred to herein shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder will be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall be deemed duly given (a) when delivered personally to the recipient, (b) one (1) Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid), (c) one (1) Business Day after being sent to the recipient by facsimile (if a facsimile number is provided below) or electronically scanned transmission via electronic mail with a manual and not automated acknowledgment of receipt (which the recipient shall provide in good faith), or (d) four (4) Business Days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

Either Party may change the persons or addresses to which any notices or other communications to it should be addressed by notifying the other Party as provided above.

Neither Seller nor Buyer may assign (whether by operation of Law, a change of control or otherwise) any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party. No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

The captions and headings used in this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered part of this Agreement or be used in the interpretation thereof.

This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, representations and statements, whether oral, written, implied or expressed, relating to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and those in the other Transaction Documents, the exhibits and Schedules (other than an exception expressly set forth as such in the Schedules), the statements in the body of this Agreement will control.

Except as set forth in Section 7.17, nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall be construed, to confer upon any person or entity other than Buyer and Seller (and only to the extent expressly provided herein, their respective Affiliates) any right or remedy under or by reason of this Agreement.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile, electronic mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

(a)This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its conflicts of laws provisions.

(b)ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY MAY BE INSTITUTED IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN EACH CASE LOCATED IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(c)EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (II) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.11(C).

(a)The internal general counsel’s office of Seller and its Affiliates, in concert with certain outside counsel, including Nixon Peabody LLP (such general counsel’s office and outside counsel, collectively, “Sellers’ Counsel”), has acted as counsel for Seller and its Affiliates, including Amnis (the “Clients”) for various matters prior to the Closing, including in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (the “Pre-Closing Engagements”) and not as counsel for any other Person, including any Buyer Party or any of their respective Affiliates. Only the Clients shall be considered clients of Sellers’ Counsel in the Pre-Closing Engagements. Accordingly, notwithstanding that the Clients are or were clients in the Pre-Closing Engagements, upon and after the Closing, all communications between any of the Clients and Sellers’ Counsel in the course of the Pre-Closing Engagements shall be deemed to be attorney-client confidences that belong solely to Seller and not to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, Amnis), in each case so long as such communications would be subject to a privilege or protection if they were being requested in a Proceeding by an unrelated third party. Buyer and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, Amis) shall not have access to any such communications, or to the files of Sellers’ Counsel relating to the Pre-Closing Engagements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, notwithstanding that Amnis is or was a client of Sellers’ Counsel in the Pre-Closing Engagements, upon and after the Closing (except with respect to any communications that would not be subject to a privilege or protection if they were being requested in a Proceeding by an unrelated third party), (i) Seller and its Affiliates shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to the Pre-Closing Engagements, and none of Amnis, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of Sellers’ Counsel in respect of the Pre-Closing Engagements constitute property of the Clients (including Amnis), only Seller and its Affiliates (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, Amnis) shall hold such property

rights, and (iii) Sellers’ Counsel shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Amnis, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Sellers’ Counsel and Amnis or otherwise.

(b)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties recognize that it would be impracticable to try to purge all Client-privileged communications from Amnis’ files and computer systems prior to the Closing, and so the Parties agree that no waiver is intended by leaving such documents where they are and Buyer and their respective Affiliates shall not be permitted to review any such documents, and Buyer agrees that it and its Affiliates shall not be permitted to use any such documents in a manner adverse to Seller in any indemnity or other dispute following the Closing.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Share and Asset Purchase Agreement to be duly executed by their respective Representatives hereunto authorized as of the day and year first above written.
