(a)Exercise Price.

(i)    Upon the exercise of a Spinco Option by a CVC Participant, the Parties shall take steps to ensure that the applicable stock plan administrator delivers cash in an amount equal to the exercise price, rounded up to the nearest whole penny, to CVC, which shall promptly deliver such payment to Spinco.

(ii)    Upon the exercise of a CVC Option by a Spinco Participant, the Parties shall take steps to ensure that the applicable stock plan administrator delivers cash in an amount equal to the exercise price, rounded up to the nearest whole penny, to Spinco, which shall promptly deliver such payment to CVC.

Such amount shall be paid within 90 days of filing the last tax return necessary to make the determination described in the preceding sentence.

Section 2.2    Cooperation. If, after the Distribution Date, Spinco or CVC identify an administrative error in the individuals identified as holding Equity Compensation, the amount of Equity Compensation so held, the vesting level of such Equity Compensation, or any other similar error, the Parties shall mutually cooperate in taking such actions as are necessary or appropriate to place, as nearly as reasonably practicable, the individual and the Parties in the position in which they would have been had the error not occurred. Each of the Parties shall

establish an appropriate administration system in order to handle in an orderly manner exercises of Spinco Options and CVC Options. Each of the Parties will work together to unify and consolidate all indicative data and payroll and employment information on regular timetables and make certain that each applicable entity’s data and records with respect to Equity Compensation are correct and updated on a timely basis. The foregoing shall include employment status and information required for tax withholding/remittance, compliance with trading windows and compliance with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and other applicable Laws. Each of the Parties hereto will use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement, including adopting any required plans or plan amendments. Each Party shall be entitled to rely in good faith on information provided by the other Party, and the providing Party shall be responsible for any Liabilities arising from missing, delayed, incomplete, inaccurate or outdated information or data.

Section 2.3    SEC Registration. The Parties mutually agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the long-term incentive awards to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law.

Section 2.4    Savings Clause. The Parties hereby acknowledge that the provisions of this Article II are intended to achieve certain tax, legal and accounting objectives and, in the event such objectives are not achieved, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith regarding such other actions that may be necessary or appropriate to achieve such objectives. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith regarding the need for any treatment different from that otherwise provided herein to ensure that (i) a federal income tax deduction for the payment of such supplemental or deferred compensation or long-term incentive award, annual incentive award or other compensation is not limited by reason of Section 162(m) of the Code, and (ii) the treatment of such supplemental or deferred compensation or long-term incentive award, annual incentive award or other compensation does not cause the imposition of a tax under Section 409A of the Code.

Section 2.5    Sharing of Information. The Parties (acting directly or through their respective Subsidiaries) shall promptly provide to the other Party and their respective agents and vendors all information as the other may reasonably request to enable the requesting Party to administer efficiently and accurately each of its equity administration plans or arrangements and to determine the scope of, as well as fulfill, its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that any Party reasonably determines that any such provision of information could be commercially detrimental to such Party or any member of its Group, violate any Law or agreement to which such Party or any member of its Group is a party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such Party or any member of its Group, the Parties shall provide any such information and the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to comply with the obligations pursuant to this Section 2.5 in a manner that mitigates any such harm or consequence to the extent practicable, and the Parties agree to cooperate with each other and take such commercially reasonable steps as may be practicable to preserve the attorney-

client privilege with respect to the disclosure of any such information. Such information shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, be provided in the format and at the times and places requested, but in no event shall the Party providing such information be obligated to incur any out-of-pocket expenses not reimbursed by the Party making such request or make such information available outside of its normal business hours and premises. Any information shared or exchanged pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to generally accepted confidentiality requirements.

Section 2.7    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to create any right, or accelerate entitlement, to any compensation or benefit whatsoever on the part of any CVC Employee or Spinco Employee or other CVC Participant or Spinco Participant under any CVC Share Plan or Spinco Share Plan or otherwise. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or persons (including any CVC Participant or Spinco Participant or either of the Parties’ respective Subsidiaries) any rights, benefits or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. No provision in this Agreement shall modify or amend any other agreement, plan, program, or document unless this Agreement explicitly states that the provision “amends” that other agreement, plan, program, or document. This shall not prevent the Parties entitled to enforce this Agreement from enforcing any provision in this Agreement, but no other person shall be entitled to enforce any provision in this Agreement on the grounds that it is an amendment to another agreement, plan, program, or document unless the provision is explicitly designated as such in this Agreement, and the person is otherwise entitled to enforce the other agreement, plan, program, or document. If a person not entitled to enforce this Agreement brings a lawsuit or other action to enforce any provision in this Agreement as an amendment to another agreement, plan, program, or document, and that provision is construed to be such an amendment despite not being explicitly designated as one in this Agreement, that provision in this Agreement shall be void ab initio, thereby precluding it from having any amendatory effect. Furthermore, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any CVC Employee, Former CVC Employee, Spinco Employee or Former Spinco Employee, any right to continued employment, or any recall or similar rights to an individual on layoff or any type of approved leave.

Section 2.8    Consent of Third Parties. If any provision of this Agreement is dependent on the consent of any third party and such consent is withheld, the Parties hereto shall use their reasonable best efforts to implement the applicable provisions of this Agreement to the fullest extent practicable. If any provision of this Agreement cannot be implemented due to the failure of such third party to consent, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to implement the provision in a mutually satisfactory manner.

Section 3.1    Effect If Distribution Does Not Occur. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Distribution does not take place or is terminated prior to the

Distribution Date, then all actions and events that are, under this Agreement, to be taken or occur effective immediately prior to or as of the Distribution Date, or otherwise in connection with the Distribution, shall not be taken or occur except to the extent specifically agreed to in writing by the Parties, and neither Party shall have any Liability to the other Party under this Agreement.
