The date upon which the Closing occurs is referred to as the “Closing Date.”

Section 2.3 Consideration. In exchange for the sale and delivery of the Company Shares in accordance with Section 2.1, the Seller shall receive the following (collectively, as adjusted and finally determined in accordance with Section 2.8, the “Consideration”): (a) the Closing Cash Consideration, plus (b) any portion of the Escrow Amount (if any) that is ultimately released to the Seller pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, as applicable, plus (c) any portion of the Earnout Amounts (if any) that are ultimately paid to the Seller pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(a) Prior to the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser shall enter into an escrow agreement with a bank or trust company selected by the Purchaser and reasonably acceptable to the Seller (the “Escrow Agent”) in a form reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser

27

and the Seller (the “Escrow Agreement”). At the Closing, (i) the Purchaser shall deposit an amount in cash equal to $10,000,000 (ten million dollars) (the “Indemnity Escrow Amount”) with the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 2.7 to be held in an escrow account by the Escrow Agent for the purpose of securing indemnification obligations of the Seller set forth in Article IX (the “Indemnity Escrow Account”) and (ii) the Purchaser shall deposit an amount in cash equal to $25,000,000 (twenty five million dollars) (the “Adjustment Escrow Amount” and, together with the Indemnity Escrow Amount, the “Escrow Amounts”) with the Escrow Agent in accordance with Section 2.7 to be held in an escrow account by the Escrow Agent for the purpose of securing payment obligations of the Seller (if any) with respect to post-closing adjustments as set forth in Section 2.8 (the “Adjustment Escrow Account” and, together with the Indemnity Escrow Account, the “Escrow Accounts”).

The Escrowed Cash with respect to the Adjustment Escrow Account shall be released as specified in Section 2.8(d), Section 2.8(e) or Section 2.8(g).

Section 2.5 Earnout.

(a) Within forty-five (45) days after the end of an Earnout Year, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a statement (the “Earnout Statement”), together with reasonable supporting detail, showing the Purchaser’s good faith calculation for such Earnout Year of the (i) Gross Profit, (ii) Gross Profit Margin Percentage and (iii) resulting Earnout Amount. The Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin Percentage shall be calculated in accordance with the policies, principles and procedures set forth on Exhibit F.

(b) Subject to the Disclosure Limitations, the Seller and its Representatives shall be permitted reasonable access to review and obtain copies of the books and records of the Business and any work papers (subject to customary access letters and confidentiality undertakings) related to the preparation of the Earnout Statement. The Seller and its Representatives may make reasonable inquiries of the Purchaser and its accountants regarding questions or disagreements, and the Purchaser shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any such accountants to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries. At the request of the Seller, and subject to the Disclosure Limitations, the Purchaser shall make available its personnel who are knowledgeable about the information contained in, and the preparation of, the Earnout Statement, to the Seller to advise and assist the Seller in its review of the Earnout Statement and any objections or disputes with respect thereto.

(c) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Earnout Statement to the Seller, if the Seller has any objections to the Earnout Statement, the Seller shall deliver to the

28

Purchaser a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Earnout Objections Statement”). Any Earnout Objections Statement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted, the proposed correct amount for each such item and the resulting Earnout Amount. If an Earnout Objections Statement is not delivered to the Purchaser within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Earnout Statement to the Seller, the Earnout Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. If an Earnout Objections Statement is properly and timely delivered, the portion of the Earnout Statement not subject to dispute pursuant to the Earnout Objections Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. At any time during such thirty (30) day period, the Seller may deliver a written notice to the Purchaser stating that it agrees with the Earnout Statement and the Earnout Statement shall thereafter become final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. The Seller and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections in the Earnout Objections Statement, but if and to the extent they do not reach a final resolution within sixty (60) days after the delivery of the Earnout Objections Statement, the Seller and the Purchaser shall submit, within seventy five (75) days after the delivery of the Earnout Objections Statement, such dispute to the Valuation Firm for resolution. The Valuation Firm shall be instructed by the Seller and the Purchaser to render a determination of the applicable dispute (solely to the extent of such dispute) within thirty (30) days after submission of the matter to the Valuation Firm (or such longer period as mutually agreed in writing by the Purchaser and the Seller), which determination must be in writing and must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, and include a certification that it reached such determination in accordance with the definitions as provided in this Agreement and Exhibit F. Any further submissions to the Valuation Firm must be written and delivered to each Party to the dispute. The Valuation Firm shall make a final determination of the Gross Profit, Gross Profit Margin Percentage and resulting Earnout Amount (solely to the extent such amounts or their components are in dispute) in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement and Exhibit F. The Valuation Firm shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Purchaser and the Seller and their respective Representatives, and not by independent review, only those issues in dispute specifically set forth on the Earnout Objections Statement, and shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. In resolving any disputed item, the Valuation Firm shall (i) be bound by the principles set forth in this Section 2.5 and (ii) not assign a value to any item in dispute that is greater than the greatest value for such disputed item claimed by any Party or less than the smallest value for such disputed item claimed by any Party. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with the Valuation Firm during the term of its engagement, including by executing a customary engagement letter. Neither the Purchaser, the Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall have any ex parte conversations or meetings with the Valuation Firm in connection with any dispute submitted by the Purchaser and/or the Seller to the Valuation Firm pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) without the prior consent of the other Party. The Valuation Firm’s determination of the Gross Profit, Gross Profit Margin Percentage and the resulting Earnout Amount with respect to an Earnout Year shall, in each case in the manner contemplated by this Section 2.5, become final and binding on the Parties on the date the Valuation Firm delivers its final resolution in writing to the Seller and the Purchaser, absent manifest error or fraud. The costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm shall be allocated between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, in the same proportion that (x) the absolute value of the difference between the value of the Earnout Amount asserted by the Purchaser and the value of the Earnout Amount determined by the Valuation Firm bears to (y) the absolute value of the difference between the value of the Earnout Amount asserted by the Seller and the value of the Earnout Amount determined by the Valuation Firm. For example, if the Seller submits an Earnout Objections Statement to the Valuation Firm

29

that states that the Earnout Amount should be $2,000 while the Purchaser asserts in the written presentation to the Valuation Firm that the Earnout Amount should be $1,000, and the Valuation Firm ultimately resolves that the Earnout Amount should be $1,200, then the costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm will be allocated 20% to the Purchaser and 80% to the Seller.

(d) Once the Earnout Amount for an Earnout Year has been finally determined in accordance with Section 2.5(c) and such Earnout Amount is not zero, the Purchaser shall no later than eight (8) Business Days following such determination, deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller the number of Purchaser Shares payable as the Earnout Stock Consideration for such Earnout Year, provided that if any portion of the Earnout Amount is subject to a pending claim for indemnification by the Purchaser under Section 9.1(a) and Section 9.4(d), such portion of the Earnout Amount shall only be paid eight (8) Business Days following the final resolution of such claim and only to the extent not used to offset the amount required to be paid by the Seller under Section 9.1(a) with respect to such claim. For the avoidance of doubt, no payment of Purchaser Shares shall be due with respect to an Earnout Year if the Earnout Amount for such Earnout Year is zero.

(e) The Parties understand and agree that (i) the contingent rights to receive an Earnout Amount shall not be represented by any form of certificate or other instrument, are not transferable, and do not constitute an equity or ownership interest in the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates; (ii) the Seller shall not have any rights as a security-holder of the Purchaser as a result of the Seller’s contingent right to receive any Earnout Amount; and (iii) no interest is payable with respect to any Earnout Amount.

(f) Any amount paid pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be treated for all Tax purposes as additional consideration paid for the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement, except (i) for any portion treated as imputed interest and (ii) to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provisions of state, local or foreign Law).

(g) Subsequent to the Closing and until the end of FY 2028, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve in all material respects the material third-party customer relationships and material Intellectual Property of the Business existing as of the Closing Date (other than expiration of registered Intellectual Property in accordance with their terms). Without limiting the foregoing, (x) during the period from the Closing Date through the final determination of the Earnout Amount for FY 2028, the Purchaser shall maintain the records of the Business in a manner permitting preparation of the Earnout Statements and the Quarterly Gross Profit Statements accurately in all material respects in order to allow for the good faith calculation of the Earnout Amount and its components, including by following the policies, principles and procedures set forth on Exhibit F; (y) during the period from the Closing Date through the end of FY 2028, the Purchaser shall (i) not take any action in bad faith, the primary intent or primary purpose of which is to avoid or reduce the amount of any Earnout Amount, including in bad faith accelerating or delaying the shipping of Specified Products or recognition of any revenues of the Business from one Earnout Year to another or following the end of the last Earnout Year; and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide reasonably adequate staffing and working capital for the conduct of the Business; and (z) during the period from the Closing Date through the earlier of (i) the payment of the Earnout Amount for FY 2028 or (ii) the final determination that no Earnout Amount is payable for FY 2028, the Purchaser shall not enter into (or permit any Subsidiary of the Purchaser to enter into)

30

any agreement or arrangement that would prevent the Purchaser from paying the Earnout Amount in accordance with this Agreement.

(h) The Purchaser shall deliver or cause to be to be delivered to the Seller, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of an Earnout Year (other than the last fiscal quarter of such Earnout Year), a statement (the “Quarterly Gross Profit Statement”) setting forth the Purchaser’s calculation of Gross Profit for such fiscal quarter in reasonable detail, and, subject to the Disclosure Limitations, the Purchaser agrees to promptly provide such supporting documentation as the Seller may reasonably request to review the Purchaser’s calculation of the Gross Profit for such quarter.

(i) Any information provided to or obtained by the Seller pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to be Confidential Information.

(j) The fiscal years of the Business for any Earnout Year and any fiscal quarter of the Business for any Earnout Year shall be based on the 4-4-5 accounting calendar that is used by the Purchaser, including as specified in the definitions of FY 2027 and FY 2028.

(k) Seller agrees to distribute the net proceeds of (i) 100% of any Earnout Amount in respect of FY 2027 (including the 2027 Catch-Up Amount, if any) to its members in accordance with the distribution provisions in the Seller’s Organizational Documents and (ii) 50% of any Earnout Amount in respect of FY 2028 (excluding, for avoidance of doubt, the 2027 Catch-Up Amount, if any) to The Resolute Fund IV, L.P. and the other 50% of any Earnout Amount in respect of FY 2028 (excluding, for avoidance of doubt, the 2027 Catch-Up Amount, if any) to Business Employee Equityholders, in each case of this clause (ii), in accordance with the distribution provisions in the Seller’s Organizational Documents. For purposes of the prior sentence, “Seller’s Organizational Documents” means Seller’s Organizational Documents as of the date of this Agreement, as they may be amended to implement the Earnout Arrangement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the terms set forth in Exhibit H.

Section 2.6 Pre-Closing Statement. No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, the Seller shall in good faith prepare and deliver to the Purchaser a statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”) setting forth its good faith estimate of (i) the Acquisition Expenses (the “Estimated Acquisition Expenses”), (ii) the Cash Amount (the “Estimated Cash Amount”), (iii) the Working Capital Adjustment Amount (the “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment Amount”), and (iv) the Indebtedness Amount (the “Estimated Indebtedness Amount”), including, in each case, a schedule setting forth the components thereof and reasonable supporting detail, prepared in accordance with this Agreement (including the Transaction Accounting Principles). Subject to the Disclosure Limitations, the Purchaser and its Representatives shall be permitted access to review and obtain copies of the Seller’s and the Company Group’s books and records and any work papers (subject to customary access letters and confidentiality undertakings) related to the preparation of the Pre-Closing Statement and the calculations and adjustments contemplated thereby. The Purchaser and its Representatives may make reasonable inquiries of the Seller, the Company and their respective accountants regarding questions or disagreements, and the Company and the Seller shall, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause any such accountants to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries. At the request of the Purchaser, subject to the Disclosure Limitations, the Seller shall make available its and the

31

Company Group’s personnel who are knowledgeable about the information contained in, and the preparation of, the Pre-Closing Statement, to the Purchaser to advise and assist the Purchaser in its review of the Pre-Closing Statement and any objections or disputes with respect thereto. The Purchaser may provide the Seller with comments to the Pre-Closing Statement and the Seller shall consider such comments in good faith. The Purchaser’s failure to identify any questions or changes to the Pre-Closing Statement shall not indicate any acceptance or waiver, or otherwise impact the Purchaser’s right to prepare the Preliminary Statement in accordance with Section 2.8(a).

Section 2.7 Transactions to Be Effected at the Closing. At the Closing, the following transactions shall be effected by the Parties:

(a) The Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered:

(i) to the Seller, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated in writing by the Seller (such designation to be made at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date), a dollar amount equal to the Closing Cash Consideration;

(ii) to the Escrow Agent, (A) for deposit in the Adjustment Escrow Account, the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (B) for deposit in the Indemnity Escrow Account, the Indemnity Escrow Amount;

If, for any reason, the Purchaser fails to deliver the Preliminary Statement to the Seller within the ninety (90) day period contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 2.8(a), then the Pre-Closing Statement delivered by the Seller to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.6 shall be deemed to be the Preliminary Statement for all purposes of this Agreement, and all of the rights of the Seller and the Purchaser under this Section 2.8 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Pre-Closing Statement in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.8.

(b) Subject to Disclosure Limitations, the Seller and its Representatives shall be permitted reasonable access to review and obtain copies of the Company Group’s books and records and any work papers (subject to customary access letters

33

and confidentiality undertakings) related to the preparation of the Preliminary Statement and the calculations and adjustments contemplated thereby. The Seller and its Representatives may make reasonable inquiries of the Purchaser, the Company and their respective accountants regarding questions or disagreements, and the Purchaser and the Company shall, and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such accountants to, cooperate with and respond to such inquiries, subject to Disclosure Limitations. At the request of the Seller, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours and without material disruption to the Company Group’s business, the Company shall make available its and its Subsidiaries’ personnel who are knowledgeable about the information contained in, and the preparation of, the Preliminary Statement, to the Seller to advise and assist the Seller in its review of the Preliminary Statement and any objections or disputes with respect thereto, subject to Disclosure Limitations.

(c) Within forty five (45) days after delivery of the Preliminary Statement to the Seller, if the Seller has any objections to the Preliminary Statement, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser a statement setting forth its objections thereto (an “Objections Statement”). Any Objections Statement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any disagreement so asserted and the proposed correct amount for each such item. If an Objections Statement is not delivered to the Purchaser within forty five (45) days after delivery of the Preliminary Statement to the Seller, the Preliminary Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. If an Objections Statement is properly and timely delivered, the portion of the Preliminary Statement not subject to dispute pursuant to the Objections Statement shall be final, binding and non-appealable by the Parties. The Seller and the Purchaser shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any objections in the Objections Statement, but if and to the extent they do not reach a final resolution within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, the Seller and the Purchaser shall submit, within forty (40) days after the delivery of the Objections Statement, such dispute to the Valuation Firm for resolution. The Valuation Firm shall be instructed by the Seller and the Purchaser to render a determination of the applicable dispute (solely to the extent of such dispute) within thirty (30) days after submission of the matter to the Valuation Firm (or such longer period as mutually agreed in writing by the Purchaser and the Seller), which determination must be in writing and must set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis therefor, and include a certification that it reached such determination in accordance with the this Agreement (including the Transaction Accounting Principles). Any further submissions to the Valuation Firm must be written and delivered to each Party to the dispute. The Valuation Firm shall make a final determination of the Acquisition Expenses, the Cash Amount, the Indebtedness Amount, the Working Capital Adjustment Amount, as applicable, and the resulting Final Closing Cash Consideration calculated with reference to such amounts (solely to the extent such amounts are in dispute) in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement. The Valuation Firm shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Purchaser and the Seller and their respective Representatives, and not by independent review, only those issues in dispute specifically set forth on the Objections Statement, and shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. In resolving any disputed item, the Valuation Firm shall (i) be bound by the principles set forth in this Section 2.8 and the Transaction Accounting Principles and (ii) not assign a value to any item in dispute that is greater than the greatest value for such disputed item claimed by any Party or less than the smallest value for such disputed item claimed by any Party. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with the Valuation Firm during the term of its engagement, including by executing a customary engagement letter. Neither the Purchaser, the Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall have any ex parte conversations or meetings with the Valuation Firm in connection with any dispute submitted by the Purchaser

34

and/or the Seller to the Valuation Firm pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) without the prior consent of the other Party. The determination of the Acquisition Expenses, Cash Amount, Indebtedness Amount, Working Capital Adjustment Amount, as applicable, and the resulting Final Closing Cash Consideration calculated with reference thereto, in each case in the manner contemplated by this Section 2.8, shall become final and binding on the Parties on the date the Valuation Firm delivers its final resolution in writing to the Seller and the Purchaser, absent manifest error or fraud. The costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm shall be allocated between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, based upon the percentage of the dollar value of the disputed amounts (as submitted to the Valuation Firm) determined in favor of the other Party by the Valuation Firm bears to the dollar value contested by such Party in the written presentation to the Valuation Firm. For example, if the Seller submits an Objections Statement to the Valuation Firm for $1,000, and if the Purchaser contests to the Valuation Firm only $500 of the amount claimed by the Seller, and if the Valuation Firm ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Seller $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Valuation Firm will be allocated sixty percent (60%) (i.e., 300/500) to the Purchaser and forty percent (40%) (i.e., 200/500) to the Seller.

(d) If the Final Closing Cash Consideration is greater than the Closing Cash Consideration (such difference, the “Excess Amount”), promptly after the date the Final Closing Cash Consideration is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.8 (but in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter), (i) the Purchaser shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Seller the Excess Amount and (ii) the Purchaser and the Seller will instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute all amounts in the Adjustment Escrow Account to the Seller. Following the payment of the amounts specified in the prior sentence, no further payments will be due from the Purchaser to the Seller or its Affiliates under this Section 2.8.

(e) If the Final Closing Cash Consideration is less than the Closing Cash Consideration (the absolute value of such difference, the “Shortfall Amount”), promptly after the date the Final Closing Cash Consideration is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.8 (but in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter), (i) the Purchaser and the Seller will instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute to the Purchaser, solely out of the balance of the Adjustment Escrow Account, an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the Shortfall Amount and (B) the balance of the Adjustment Escrow Account (it being understood that if the amounts in (A) and (B) are the same, the release and distribution to Purchaser described in this clause (i) shall be equal to such amount); and (ii) in the event there are funds remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account after the release described in the foregoing clause (i) has been received by the Purchaser, the Purchaser and the Seller shall instruct the Escrow Agent to distribute such remaining funds to the Seller.

(h) Any amount paid pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the consideration paid for the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law).

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no post-Closing adjustment with respect to the Holdback Seller Stock Consideration or the Holdback Stock Consideration.

The Purchaser and any other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment otherwise payable to the Seller (or any other Person) pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under all applicable Tax Laws. In the event that the Purchaser determines that it is required to deduct or withhold from any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchaser shall (except for any such deduction or withholding (a) arising from the Seller’s failure to deliver the form required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.7(c)(v) or (b) required with respect to payments properly treated as compensation for applicable income Tax purposes), use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Seller with at least five (5) Business Days’ advance notice describing the amount of and basis for such deduction and withholding prior to making such deduction or withholding, and the Parties shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to obtain exemption from or to otherwise reduce or eliminate, in each case to the extent practicable and permitted by Law, any amount that would otherwise be required to be deducted or withheld. To the extent that any amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(c) With respect to health care plans maintained by the Purchaser or its Affiliates for the benefit of the Continuing Employees on and after the Closing, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the Company Group or such plan to, make commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods applicable to the Continuing Employees (and their covered dependents), and (ii) in determining any deductible, out-of-pocket limitations, co-payments or similar requirements, give full credit towards satisfying any applicable deductible or similar requirements for the applicable plan year in which the Closing Date occurs with respect to an amount equal to the excess of the total expenses paid by any Continuing Employee during the portion of the applicable plan year prior to the Closing Date, in each case to the extent recognized for such purpose under an analogous Benefit Plan prior to the Closing Date.

Section 7.4 280G Matters. At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of the Seller to (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from each “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) a waiver by such “disqualified individual” of any and all payments (or other benefits) contingent on the consummation of the Transactions (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) to the extent necessary so that such payments and benefits would not be “excess parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code, (b) submit to the equityholders of Seller for a vote all such waived payments in a manner such that, if such vote is adopted by such equityholders of Seller in a manner that satisfies the shareholder approval requirements under Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder, no payment received by such “disqualified individual” would be a “parachute payment” under Section 280G(b) of the Code (determined without regard to Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code) and (c) deliver to the Purchaser evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser of the results of such vote. Such vote shall establish the “disqualified individual’s” right to receive or retain the payment or other compensation. In addition, the Seller shall, or shall cause an Affiliate of the Seller to, provide adequate disclosure to the equityholders of Seller of all material facts concerning all payments that, but for such vote, could be deemed “parachute payments” to any such “disqualified individual” under Section 280G of the Code in a manner that satisfies Section 280G(b)(5)(B)(ii) of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder. At least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide or cause to be provided to the Purchaser written drafts of the shareholder disclosure statement, waivers, and shareholder approval forms that will be provided to disqualified individuals and shareholders in advance of delivering such documents to the disqualified individuals and shareholders, as applicable, and allow the Purchaser and its Representatives a reasonable opportunity to provide comments on such documents.

(a) The Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to preserve and keep, and cause the Company Group to preserve and keep, information and books and records held by any member of the Company Group relating to the Seller for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date, during which time the Purchaser shall make such information and books and records available to the Seller as the Seller may reasonably require in connection with any audit, investigation, dispute or litigation with a third party, provided, that the Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any such access rights shall be exercised in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Company Group or the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, and (ii) the Purchaser may withhold any document (or portions thereof) or information to the extent that (x) it may not be disclosed under applicable Law or pursuant to the terms of a non-disclosure agreement with a third party; provided, that the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access to such information in a manner that does not violate such restriction, or (y) the disclosure would cause the Purchaser or any member of the Company Group to waive its attorney-client or other legal privilege with respect to such information; provided, that the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access to such information in a manner that does not waive such privilege, or (z) would result in the disclosure of competitive sensitive information; provided, that the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide access to such information in a manner that does not result in such disclosure of competitive sensitive information.

(b) From and after the Closing and continuing for three (3) years thereafter, the Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to, keep all documents, materials, records and other information that it has or has obtained prior to or after the Closing regarding the Purchaser, its Affiliates or any member of the Company Group or any information concerning this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions that has not been publicly disclosed in accordance with Section 7.2 (“Confidential Information”) strictly confidential and will not disclose such information without the Purchaser’s prior written consent and, at the Purchaser’s request, shall deliver to the Purchaser or destroy (at the Purchaser’s option) all such Confidential Information; provided however, the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any information (i) that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 7.5(b) or any other obligation of confidentiality to the Purchaser or its Affiliates; (ii) that is required to be disclosed by applicable Law or to a Governmental Authority, provided that, in the case of this clause (ii), to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Seller shall prior to any disclosure (A) reasonably promptly notify the Purchaser in writing of such requirement (which notification shall include the nature of such legal requirement and the extent of the required disclosure), (B) provide the Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, and (C) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s expense, to preserve to the extent reasonably practicable the confidentiality of such information, and in the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Seller or its Affiliates shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of such information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise, at the Purchaser’s expense, commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such disclosed Confidential Information; or (iii) that the Seller or any of its Affiliates receives after the Closing from a source other than the Purchaser or its Affiliates or Representatives; provided that such

91

source is not known (after reasonable inquiry) by the Seller or any of its Affiliates to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to, the Purchaser or its Affiliates (or the Company Group prior to Closing) with respect to such information. The foregoing shall not prohibit the Seller or its Affiliates from disclosing any Confidential Information solely to the extent required for the purpose of enforcing any right or remedy relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions. Furthermore, the provisions of this Section 7.5(b) will not prohibit any retention of copies of records as may be, and only to the extent, necessary to comply with applicable Law or in connection with the preparation and filing of financial statements with a Governmental Authority or Tax Returns of the Seller or its controlled Affiliates or in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions.

(c) Effective as of the Closing, all of the restrictions on and obligations of the Purchaser in the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate in their entirety (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such provisions that purport to survive termination of the Confidentiality Agreement).

For a period of six (6) years from and after the Closing Date, except as required by applicable Law, the Purchaser shall not permit any member of the Company Group

95

to amend, repeal or modify any indemnification or similar provision in such member’s Organizational Documents relating to the exculpation or indemnification of former officers and directors as in effect on the date of this Agreement in a manner that is material and adverse to any such D&O Indemnified Person.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including the Financing) by or to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any other financing transaction be a condition to any of the Purchaser’s obligations hereunder.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.1 Indemnification.

(a) Seller Indemnity. From and after the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Purchaser Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses incurred by any Purchaser Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to or resulting from (or constituting, in the case of clause (iii) or (iv) below):

(i) any inaccuracy or breach (or claim of such) of any representation or warranty set forth in Article III or in Article IV (provided that, for purposes of this Section 9.1(a)(i), any materiality, material adverse effect, or “Company Material Adverse Effect” qualification therein shall be disregarded and not given effect, except in the case of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.8, the categories of Material Contracts in Section 4.17(a) and the word “Material” in the term “Material Contracts”);

(ii) any breach of any pre-closing covenant or agreement of the Seller or the Company or post-closing covenant or agreement of the Seller, in each case, set forth in this Agreement;

(iii) any Excluded Taxes;

(iv) any VDA Tax; or

(v) any claim by any equityholder or Affiliate of the Seller or former equityholder of the Company Group, including any claim of a breach of fiduciary duty or otherwise by the managers, directors and officers of Seller or the Company Group in connection with the approval of this Agreement and the Transactions or the consummation thereof.

(b) Purchaser Indemnity. From and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party”) from and against any Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to or resulting from:

(i) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement that is to be performed by the Purchaser after the Closing.

Section 9.2 Defense of Third Party Claims.

(a) Promptly after the receipt by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article IX (the “Indemnified Party”) of notice of the commencement of any Action involving a third party (such Action, a “Third Party Claim”), such

100

Indemnified Party shall, if a claim with respect thereto is to be made against any party or parties obligated to provide indemnification pursuant to this Article IX (the “Indemnifying Party”), give such Indemnifying Party written notice of such Third Party Claim (the “Third Party Claim Notice”) which shall contain (i) a description and the amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, to the extent known, (ii) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX for such Losses, and (iii) a demand for payment in the amount of such Losses; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall actually prejudice any defense or claim available to the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Third Party Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “Response”) in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any or all of the Claimed Amount.

(c) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Third Party Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party may only assume control of such defense if it acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party that any Losses that are assessed against the Indemnified Party in connection with such Action constitute Losses for which the Indemnified Party shall be fully indemnified pursuant to this Article IX, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of an Action (A) involving criminal liability, (B) in which any relief other than monetary damages is sought against the Indemnified Party, (C) in which the potential liability to the Indemnified Party is more than two (2) times the remaining balance in the Indemnity Escrow Account, (D) to the extent the insurer under the R&W Insurance Policy assumes the defense of such Action pursuant to and in accordance with the R&W Insurance Policy, (E) in which an adverse judgment, in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party, is reasonably likely to have a material and adverse effect on the business or reputation of any member of the Company Group, the Purchaser or their Affiliates, or (F) involving or relating to any Company Intellectual Property or Intellectual Property of the Purchaser or its Affiliates. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in the event that an Indemnified Party in good faith determines that the conduct of the defense of any Action or any proposed settlement of any such Action by the Indemnifying Party might be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Indemnified Party to conduct its business (including, material relationships with Governmental Authorities, employees, customers, suppliers or other Persons with whom the Indemnified Party has material business relationships) or if the Indemnifying Party may not assume control of the defense of an Action pursuant to this Section 9.2(c), the Indemnified Party shall have the right at all times to take over and assume control over the defense, settlement or negotiations relating to any such Action at the cost of the Indemnified Party; provided that if the Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1(a), the costs associated with such defense, settlement or resolution of any such Action shall be indemnified by the Indemnifying Party in accordance with this Article IX and subject to limitations herein. The Party not controlling such defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may participate therein at its own expense; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and (x) the Indemnified Party

101

reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such Action, (y) the Indemnified Party incurs fees and expenses of counsel prior to the date that the Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense, or (z) the Indemnifying Party fails to diligently conduct the defense of such Action, then the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party shall be considered “Losses” for purposes of this Agreement. The party controlling such defense (the “Controlling Party”) shall keep the Non-controlling Party reasonably advised of the status of such Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith recommendations made by the Non-controlling Party with respect thereto. The Non-controlling Party shall furnish the Controlling Party with such information as it may have with respect to such Action (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such Party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such Action. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, it being acknowledged and agreed that the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to be acting reasonably if it withholds consent to a settlement that does not include a full release in favor of the Indemnified Party or includes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Action, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any entry of judgment, settlement or compromise that does not comply with the preceding sentence shall not be determinative of the amount of Losses with respect to any related claims for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes or any Tax Proceeding, which shall be governed by Section 10.2.

Section 9.3 Procedure for Claims Not Involving Third Parties.

(a) An Indemnified Party wishing to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article IX that does not involve a Third Party Claim shall deliver a written notice (a “Claim Notice”), promptly upon becoming aware of such claim (but in no event more than thirty (30) days after becoming aware of such claim), to the Indemnifying Party, which shall contain (i) a description and Claimed Amount, to the extent known, (ii) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article IX for such Losses, and (iii) a demand for payment in the amount of such Losses; provided that the failure of the Indemnified Party to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent that such failure to give notice shall actually prejudice any defense or claim available to the Indemnifying Party.

(b) Within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written Response in which the Indemnifying Party shall either: (i) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount or (ii) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any or all of the Claimed Amount. If no Response is delivered by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed

102

that an amount equal to the entire Claimed Amount shall be payable to the Indemnified Party and such Claimed Amount shall be promptly payable to the Purchaser or the Seller, as applicable.

Section 9.4 Survival; Limitations on Liability.

(a) Survival.

(i) All of the representations and warranties of the Seller and the Company set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing of this Agreement until the Release Date, at which time they shall expire, except for the Fundamental Representations and the Tax Representations, which shall survive the Closing until the earlier of (x) December 1, 2028 or (y) sixty (60) days following the final determination of the Earnout Amount for FY 2028, at which time they shall expire. The right to indemnification for Excluded Taxes and any inaccuracy or breach (or claim of such) of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted, or knowledge acquired, with respect to the accuracy of such representation or warranty. All of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser shall terminate at the Closing.

(ii) All covenants and agreements of the Seller and the Company set forth in this Agreement that require performance prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing until the Release Date, at which time they shall expire. All covenants and agreements of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement that require performance prior to the Closing shall terminate at the Closing. All covenants and other agreements of the Parties set forth in this Agreement that require performance from and after the Closing shall survive the Closing and shall continue in accordance with their terms.

(iii) If an indemnification claim is properly asserted in writing pursuant to Section 9.2 or Section 9.3, or in respect of Taxes, prior to the expiration, as provided in this Section 9.4(a), of the representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that is the basis for such claim, then such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement and the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations with respect thereto shall survive past the date on which they would otherwise expire until, but only for the purpose of, the resolution of such claim.

(b) Certain Limitations; Cap.

(i) The maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses payable by the Seller under Section 9.1(a)(i) (after application of Section 9.4(d)(iii)) in respect of all claims made thereunder shall not exceed the Indemnity Escrow Amount (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap shall not apply with respect to breaches of any Fundamental Representation (the “Specified Claims”). The maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses payable by the Seller under Section 9.1(a)(i) in respect of all claims with respect to the Specified Claims, Section 9.1(a)(ii) in respect of all claims with respect to pre-Closing covenants, Section 9.1(a)(iii), Section 9.1(a)(iv), or Section 9.1(a)(v) shall not, in the aggregate, exceed the Aggregate Cap.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any claims for Fraud, and claims for Fraud

103

shall not in any way reduce (or be applied to) any of the limits set forth in this Agreement.

(c) Amounts Reflected as Purchase Price Adjustments. No Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification for Losses pursuant to Section 9.1(a) in respect of any amount to the extent that such amount was included in the calculation of the Final Closing Cash Consideration and, in each case, actually reduced the Final Closing Cash Consideration otherwise payable by the Purchaser.

(d) Satisfaction of Seller Indemnity Claims. The Purchaser (on behalf of itself and the other Purchaser Indemnified Parties) and the Seller hereby agree that (i) indemnification claims made by any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) shall be satisfied solely from the Indemnity Escrow Account and the R&W Insurance Policy (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to the Specified Claims), (ii) any amount owing from the Seller to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) with respect to breaches of any representations or warranties (other than the Specified Claims) shall be recovered first from the Indemnity Escrow Account (subject to the following clause (iii)), then following exhaustion of the Indemnity Escrow Account, from the R&W Insurance Policy, and (iii) the Seller shall only be responsible for 50% of any amount payable by the Seller to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(i) with respect to breaches of any representations or warranties (other than the Specified Claims). For illustrative purposes only, suppose that the amount indemnifiable under Section 9.1(a)(i) with respect to a particular claim by the Purchaser is $900, the retention under the R&W Insurance Policy is $1,000 and the Indemnity Escrow Account has a balance of $500; in this case, the amount recoverable by the Purchaser from the Indemnity Escrow Account would be $450. Suppose further that the Purchaser has a subsequent claim under Section 9.1(a)(i) for $1,000; in this case, the amount recoverable by the Purchaser from the Indemnity Escrow Account would be $50 and from the R&W Insurance Policy would be $900 (assuming such claim is eligible for coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy). Any amount owing from the Seller to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to the Specified Claims, Fraud or under Section 9.1(a) (excluding Section 9.1(a)(i)) may be recovered from any combination of the Indemnity Escrow Account, the R&W Insurance Policy and/or by the Purchaser setting-off any Earnout Amounts that would otherwise be due to the Seller under this Agreement, in the discretion of the Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, other than in the case of Fraud, the Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover from Seller any amounts in excess of what the Purchaser may recover from any combination of the Indemnity Escrow Account and/or by the Purchaser setting-off any Earnout Amounts that would otherwise be due to the Seller under this Agreement (such aggregate amount, the “Aggregate Cap”).

(e) Calculation of Losses. Each of the Seller and the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, for purposes of this Agreement, Losses shall be calculated based on the amount of Losses that remain after deducting therefrom any (i) insurance proceeds (including proceeds received under the R&W Insurance Policy) to the extent actually received by an Indemnified Party with respect thereto (net of any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, deductibles and premium adjustments or increases in obtaining such insurance proceeds and any Taxes imposed or payable in respect of the receipt thereof), (ii) recoveries actually received by an Indemnified Party under any indemnity, contribution, or other Contract from any unaffiliated third party less any costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and (iii) any Tax benefits actually realized by a Purchaser Indemnified Party in cash as

104

a result of such Losses in the taxable year of the incurrence or payment of such Losses and the subsequent taxable year (collectively, the “Recoveries”). The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Recoveries but only if the Losses relating to such Recoveries would be required to be indemnified hereunder; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not (I) require any Party to maintain any insurance, make any claim for insurance as a condition to any indemnification hereunder or initiate or pursue any litigation or claims or otherwise bring any claims to seek such Recoveries, and (II) be construed or interpreted as a guaranty of any level or amount of insurance or other Recovery with respect to any Losses hereunder. If any such Recoveries are actually received by an Indemnified Party with respect to Losses after the Indemnifying Party has made a payment to such Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses, such Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for an amount up to such payment to the extent of, and solely using proceeds of, such Recovery.

(f) Exclusivity of Indemnity. After the Closing, the rights of an Indemnified Party under this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of such Indemnified Party with respect to all contract claims under this Agreement for breach of any of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein or any right, claim or action arising from the Transactions, except in the case of Fraud. Each of the Seller and the Purchaser expressly waives, releases and agrees not to make any claim against the other, or any of their respective Affiliates, except for indemnification claims made pursuant to this Article IX, or for any equitable relief pursuant to Section 12.10; provided, however, that the foregoing shall in no way limit Purchaser’s rights with respect to or under the R&W Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Article IX shall limit the operation of Section 2.8 or Article X.

Section 9.5 Tax Treatment of Payments. Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Article IX shall be treated as an adjustment to the consideration paid for the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law.

Section 9.6 Duty to Mitigate. The Indemnified Party shall take commercially reasonable measures to mitigate indemnifiable Losses to the extent required by applicable Law.

ARTICLE X

TAX MATTERS

Section 10.1 Tax Returns.

(a) The Seller shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, all Pre-Closing Tax Returns that are due (taking into account any applicable extensions) on or before the Closing Date (each, a “Seller-Prepared Tax Return”). Each Seller-Prepared Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company Group, except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, each Seller-Prepared Tax Return to the Purchaser for its review and comment no later than thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Seller-Prepared Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions), or in the case of any such Tax Return that is required to be filed within

105

forty-five (45) days of the date of this Agreement or that is a non-income Tax Return, such later time as is reasonably practicable. The Purchaser shall provide to the Seller any comments on such Seller-Prepared Tax Return no later than the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) days following the receipt thereof from the Seller or (ii) five (5) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return, and the Seller shall consider such comments of the Purchaser in good faith. The Seller shall cause all Seller-Prepared Tax Returns to be filed on a timely basis (taking into account any applicable extensions) and shall timely pay all Taxes reflected on such Seller-Prepared Tax Returns.

(b) The Purchaser shall prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all Pre-Closing Tax Returns that are due (taking into account any applicable extensions) after the Closing Date and all Straddle Period Returns (each, a “Purchaser-Prepared Tax Return”). The Purchaser shall pay, or cause the Company Group to pay, all Taxes due in respect of any Purchaser-Prepared Tax Return to the applicable Governmental Authority; provided, that the Purchaser shall be entitled to recover, in accordance with Article IX, any Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns for which the Seller is responsible pursuant to Article IX. All Purchaser-Prepared Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices of the Company Group, except as otherwise required by applicable Law, and shall take into account Transaction Tax Deductions. The Purchaser shall deliver any Purchaser-Prepared Tax Return to the Seller for its review and comment at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (taking into account any applicable extensions), or in the case of any such Tax Return that is required to be filed within three (3) months following the Closing Date or that is a non-income Tax Return, such later time as is reasonably practicable. The Seller shall provide to the Purchaser any comments on such Purchaser-Prepared Tax Return no later than the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) days following the receipt thereof from the Purchaser and (ii) five (5) days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return, and the Purchaser shall incorporate any reasonable comments of the Seller (other than any comment that would cause a material position to be reflected on such Tax Return for which there is not at least “more likely than not” support under applicable Law).

(c) The Purchaser and its Affiliates shall not, and shall cause the Company Group not to, (i) except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to applicable Law or the good faith resolution of a Tax Proceeding, amend any previously-filed Tax Returns of the Company Group for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) file Tax Returns for a Pre-Closing Tax Period in a jurisdiction where the Company Group has not historically filed Tax Returns, (iii) initiate discussions or examinations with any Governmental Authority regarding any Tax Return of the Company Group with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iv) make any voluntary disclosures with respect to any Taxes of the Company Group for Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (v) make, change or revoke any Tax election in respect of the Company Group with retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (vi) change any accounting method of the Company Group with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), in each case, if such action would give rise to a Tax liability for which the Seller is responsible pursuant to Article IX; provided that the restrictions contained in this Section 10.1(c) shall (x) not apply with respect to any Straddle Period, (y) cease to apply following the date that is sixty (60) days following the final determination of the Earnout Amount for FY 2028, and (z) not limit the Purchaser’s ability to cause members of the Company Group to make any Tax Return filings or voluntary disclosures (including entering into voluntary disclosure agreements) in the jurisdictions specified in Section 10.1(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter.

106

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period: (i) the amount of any Taxes not described in clause (ii) (including Taxes based upon or measured by income, receipts, payments or payroll) of the Company Group for the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date; and (ii) the amount of any property Taxes or other Taxes imposed on a periodic basis of the Company Group for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. Any exemption, deduction, credit or other item (including the effect of any graduated rates of tax) that is calculated on an annual basis shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date on a pro rata basis determined by multiplying the total amount of such item allocated to the Straddle Period times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. The taxable period of any subsidiary of a member of the Company Group, which subsidiary is a partnership, any other “flow-through entity” or a “controlled foreign corporation” shall be deemed to end on the Closing Date.

Section 10.2 Tax Proceedings.

(a) Following the Closing Date, except as provided in Section 10.2(b), the Purchaser shall control the conduct of any Tax Proceeding with respect to any member of the Company Group.

(b) Following the Closing Date, each of the Purchaser and the Seller shall promptly notify the other in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by such Party or any of its Affiliates of written notice of any pending or threatened Tax Proceeding that relates to Taxes for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification under Article IX. In the case of a Tax Proceeding for a Pre-Closing Tax Period of a member of the Company Group (but not a Straddle Period), if the Seller notifies the Purchaser in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notice from the Purchaser, or providing such notice to the Purchaser, as applicable, that the Seller elects to exercise its right to control the Tax Proceeding as set forth in this sentence (the “Seller Control Notice”), the Seller shall have the right to control the conduct of such Tax Proceeding at its own expense; provided, that (i) the Purchaser shall have the right to fully participate in such Tax Proceeding at its own expense and (ii) the Seller shall not settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, further, that (x) if the Seller informs the Purchaser in writing that it chooses not to assume (or retain) control of the conduct of any such Tax Proceeding, then the Purchaser shall retain (or assume) control of such Tax Proceeding at the Seller’s expense and the Purchaser shall have the exclusive right to control, settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Proceeding in its sole discretion, and (y) if the Seller does not timely provide such Seller Control Notice, or if, at any time, the Seller fails to defend diligently a Tax Proceeding that it elected to control pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2(b) (whether by failing to participate in any portion of, or attend any scheduled meetings in connection with, such Tax Proceeding or by failing to timely submit any materials in connection with such Tax Proceeding or otherwise), the Purchaser shall have the right to assume (or retain) control of such Tax Proceeding at the Seller’s expense and shall be permitted to settle,

107

compromise and/or concede such Tax Proceeding in its sole discretion. In addition, notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 10.2(b) and the proviso set forth in Section 10.2(c), the Purchaser shall have the right to control any Tax Proceeding of a member of the Company Group for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (and shall be permitted to settle, compromise and/or concede such Tax Proceeding in its sole discretion) at any time that 50% or more of the amount of Losses that could result from such Tax Proceeding for which the Seller is responsible pursuant to Article IX would not reasonably be expected to be recovered from the Indemnity Escrow Account or by way of set-off against any Earnout Amount for whatever reason; provided, that, if the Seller is expected to bear $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) or more of Losses resulting from such Tax Proceeding pursuant to Article IX (by way of recovery from the Indemnity Escrow Account and/or set-off against any Earnout Amount), the Seller shall have the right to fully participate in such Tax Proceeding at its own expense and the Purchaser shall not settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(c) The Purchaser shall have the exclusive right to control the conduct of any Tax Proceeding with respect to any member of the Company Group for any Straddle Period or any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date; provided, that, subject to the third sentence of Section 10.2(b), in the case of any such Tax Proceeding for a Straddle Period, the Purchaser shall not settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Proceeding that is reasonably likely to affect the liability of the Seller under Article IX without the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(a) From and after the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information (including access to books and records) and assistance relating to the Company Group as is reasonably requested for the filing of any Tax Returns and the preparation, prosecution, defense or conduct of any Tax Proceeding.

(b) From and after the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the conduct of any Tax Proceeding involving or otherwise relating to the Company Group (or their income or assets). Any information obtained under this Section 10.3(b) shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or in the conduct of any Tax Proceeding.

Section 10.4 Refunds and Certain Other Tax Benefits.

(a) If the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) receives a refund of Taxes of the Company Group paid on or prior to the Closing Date (whether by payment or as a credit in lieu thereof, and including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any overpayment of any estimated Taxes by the Company Group for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, and together with any interest received thereon, a “Tax Refund”), the Seller shall be entitled to any such Tax Refund, reduced by any reasonable out-of-pocket costs (including Taxes) incurred by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including members of the Company Group) in connection with the receipt of such Tax Refund; provided, that the Seller shall not be entitled to any Tax Refund (i) attributable to a carryback (or use) of any loss, deduction or other similar tax item arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period, (ii) taken into account as an asset in the calculation of the Final Closing Cash Consideration, (iii) to the extent the Purchaser has a claim against the Seller pursuant to this Agreement at such time (and up to the amount of such claim), (iv) that is received following the date on which the Earnout Amount, if any, for FY 2028 would be required to be paid (other than Tax Refunds attributable to amendments of California state income Tax Returns described in Section 10.1(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter), or (v) attributable to amendments of California state income Tax Returns described in Section 10.1(c) of the Company Disclosure Letter, in excess of the aggregate amount for which the Purchaser Indemnified Parties were indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1(a)(iv). The Purchaser and its Affiliates (including members of the Company Group) shall cooperate with the Seller in order to take all reasonable steps requested by the Seller to obtain any such Tax Refund. The Purchaser shall cause the amount of any Tax Refund (or portion thereof) to which the Seller is entitled hereunder to be paid to the Seller within thirty (30) days after such Tax Refund is received. If any Tax Refund paid to the Seller pursuant to this Section 10.4(a) is disallowed prior to the date on which the Earnout Amount, if any, for FY 2028 would be required to be paid, the Seller shall promptly repay such Tax Refund to the Purchaser. If the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) actually realizes a reduction in federal income Taxes payable in a taxable period commencing after the Closing Date, as a result of any deduction of net operating loss carryovers attributable to Transaction Tax Deductions, determined on a “with and without” basis, the Purchaser shall promptly pay to the Seller an amount equal to the product of (I) 25% and (II) the amount of such deduction. The Purchaser’s obligation pursuant to the preceding sentence shall terminate on the date on which the Earnout Amount, if any, for FY 2028 would be required to be paid, and if any deduction in respect of which the Purchaser made a payment to the Seller pursuant to the preceding sentence is disallowed, in whole or in part, prior to the date on which the Earnout Amount, if any, for FY 2028 would be required to be paid, the Seller shall promptly repay an amount equal to the product of (I) 25% and (II) such disallowed deduction to the Purchaser.

(b) Except as provided in Section 10.4(a), the Purchaser and its Affiliates will be entitled to any refunds of Taxes (including any interest received thereon) of any member of the Company Group.

Section 10.5 Conveyance Taxes. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, shall each be responsible for and shall pay one half of any sales, use, value added, transfer, stamp, registration, documentary, excise, real property transfer, or similar Taxes incurred as a result of the transfer of

109

the Company Shares to the Purchaser or its designated Subsidiary or Subsidiaries hereunder or the transfer of Purchaser Shares to the Seller or the Holdback Sellers (collectively, “Conveyance Taxes”). The Purchaser and the Seller shall reasonably cooperate in the preparation of any Tax Returns required to be filed in respect of any Conveyance Taxes.

Section 10.6 Certain Interim Tax Matters. Between the date hereof and the Closing, the Seller shall, and shall cause the Company Group to, cause any intercompany loans from CRFS Limited to Silvus Technologies, Inc. to be repaid in full.

TERMINATION

Section 11.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(b) by the Purchaser, if there has been any breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Seller or the Company set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) not to be satisfied and (ii) if curable, has not been cured on or prior to the earlier of the Outside Date or thirty (30) days following receipt by the Seller or the Company of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from the Purchaser; provided that the Purchaser shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.1(b) if it is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement hereunder that would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b);

(c) by the Seller, if there has been any a breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) not to be satisfied and (ii) if curable, has not been cured on or prior to the earlier of the Outside Date or thirty (30) days following receipt by the Purchaser of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from the Seller; provided that the Seller shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.1(c) if it or any member of the Company Group is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement hereunder that would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b);

(d) by either the Purchaser or the Seller, if there shall be any Law or Order which is final and nonappealable preventing the consummation of the Transactions on the terms set forth herein or that makes consummation of the Transactions on the terms set forth herein illegal, provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.1(d) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of or failure to perform any material covenant, agreement or obligation hereunder is the principal cause of such Law or Order; or

110

(e) by either the Purchaser or the Seller, if on or after 11:59 pm, Chicago time, on November 28, 2025 (the “Outside Date”) the Closing shall not have occurred; provided, that if as of the third Business Day prior to the Outside Date all of the conditions to the Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(a) (solely if the Law or Order is attributable to any Antitrust Laws or Foreign Direct Investment Laws), Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(c), shall have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and which are then capable of being so satisfied if the Closing were to take place on such date), then the Outside Date shall automatically be extended to February 27, 2026 (the “Second Outside Date”); provided, further that if as of the third Business Day prior to the Second Outside Date all of the conditions to the Closing, other than the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(a) (solely if the Law or Order is attributable to any Antitrust Laws or Foreign Direct Investment Laws), Section 8.1(b) or Section 8.1(c), shall have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and which are then capable of being so satisfied if the Closing were to take place on such date), then the Second Outside Date shall automatically be extended to May 22, 2026; provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.1(e) shall not be available to any Party whose breach of or failure to perform any material covenant, agreement or obligation hereunder is the principal cause of the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such Outside Date.

Section 11.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1, this Agreement shall immediately become void, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Purchaser, the Seller, the Company, any of their respective Affiliates or their or their Affiliates’ respective Representatives, shareholders, managers or partners and all rights and obligations of any Party shall cease, except that any such termination shall not relieve any Party from any liability for any and all Losses suffered by the other Party as a result of fraud or any material and willful breach. For purposes of this Agreement, a “material and willful breach” means a material breach that is a consequence of an act undertaken by the breaching Party or the failure by the breaching Party to take an act it is required to take under this Agreement, in each case with actual knowledge that the taking of or failure to take such act would cause a material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 11.2 and Article XII shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations of the Parties under the Confidentiality Agreement.

Section 12.2 Headings; Table of Contents. The headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 12.3 Severability. Subject to Section 7.8(e), if any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Subject to Section 7.8(e), upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.

112

Section 12.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and the Company Disclosure Letter and the Purchaser Disclosure Letter) and the other Transaction Documents, including the Confidentiality Agreement, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties or between any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 12.5 Assignment; Binding Effect. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void; provided, that without written consent of any other Party, the Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, to any of its Subsidiaries, but no such assignment shall relieve the Purchaser of any liability or obligation hereunder and any new or increased obligations for withholding or deduction under Section 2.9 or Conveyance Taxes under Section 10.5 arising as a result of such assignment shall be borne by the Purchaser (including any gross-up necessary to put the Seller in the same position it would have been in had no such assignment been made). Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 12.6 Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, except that (i) the Financing Sources are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of Section 12.19 in accordance with their terms, (ii) the D&O Indemnified Persons are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of Section 7.13 in accordance with their terms and (iii) Mayer Brown LLP is an express third party beneficiary of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of Section 12.17 and Section 12.18 in accordance with their respective terms.

Section 12.7 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses whether or not the Transactions are consummated.

Section 12.8 Amendment or Modification. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by an instrument in writing signed by each of the Purchaser, the Company and the Seller.

Section 12.9 Extension; Waiver. Any Party entitled to the benefits thereof, may, to the extent permitted by Law (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made by the other Parties contained herein or in Transaction Document, and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for their respective benefit contained herein. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall not be permitted to make any waivers with respect to the Company and the Company shall not be permitted to make any waivers with respect to the Seller. Any agreement on the part of any Party to such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such Party. Such extension or waiver shall not be deemed to apply to any time for performance, inaccuracy in any representation or

113

warranty, or noncompliance with any agreement or condition, as the case may be, other than that which is specified in the extension or waiver. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

Section 12.10 Specific Performance. The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of any Party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder will cause irreparable injury to the other Parties for which monetary damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each Party hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by any court of competent jurisdiction to compel performance of such Party’s obligations and to the granting by any court of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Parties further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief, this being in addition to and not in limitation of any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The right of specific performance and other equitable relief granted under this Agreement are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither the Seller nor the Purchaser would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law.

Section 12.11 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Party in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. The terms and conditions of this Agreement may be waived only by the Party or Parties entitled to the benefits thereof. Except as otherwise explicitly provided for elsewhere herein, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

Section 12.12 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DOMESTIC LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF DELAWARE TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF UNDER SUCH JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT SUCH PARTY MAY LEGALLY AND EFFECTIVELY DO SO, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING HEREUNDER.

Section 12.13 Consent to Jurisdiction. OTHER THAN DISPUTES SUBMITTED TO THE VALUATION FIRM PURSUANT TO SECTION 2.5 OR SECTION 2.8, EACH PARTY AGREES AND CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE

114

JURISDICTION OF THE CHANCERY COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND ANY STATE APPELLATE COURT THEREFROM SITTING IN NEW CASTLE COUNTY IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE (OR, IF THE CHANCERY COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE DECLINES TO ACCEPT JURISDICTION OVER A PARTICULAR MATTER, ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT WITHIN THE STATE OF DELAWARE), WITH RESPECT TO ALL MATTERS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND TO THE TRANSACTIONS (EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT). IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, NO PARTY SHALL ATTEMPT TO DENY OR DEFEAT SUCH PERSONAL JURISDICTION BY MOTION OR OTHER REQUEST FOR LEAVE FROM ANY SUCH COURT OR ASSERT, BY MOTION OR OTHER REQUEST, ANY OBJECTION THAT THEY MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, AND A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.

Section 12.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when the Purchaser, the Seller and the Company shall have executed this Agreement. This Agreement may be delivered by facsimile or .pdf transmission.

115

Business Day; (n) whenever the phrase “made available,” “delivered” or words of similar import are used in reference to a document, it shall mean the document was delivered to the Purchaser or its Representatives (with confirmation of receipt) or made available for viewing by the Purchaser or its Representatives in the “Project Surf” electronic data room hosted by SS&C Intralinks, Inc.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 12.16 will not limit (i) claims with respect to Fraud and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, any liability or obligation of any party to a Transaction Documents under the terms of such Transaction Document.

Section 12.17 Retention of Advisors. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that Mayer Brown LLP has represented Seller and the members of the Company Group in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions, and that, Seller and its Non-Recourse Parties (each, a “Seller Group Member”) have a reasonable expectation that Mayer Brown LLP will represent them, following the Closing, in connection with any claim or Action involving any Seller Group Member, on the one hand, and the Purchaser or any of its Non-Recourse Parties (each, a “Purchaser Group Member”), on the other hand, arising under this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions. The Purchaser hereby, on behalf of itself and the other Purchaser Group Members and their respective successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably (a) agrees to any such representation in any such matter and (b) waives any actual or potential conflict arising from any such representation in the event of any adversity between the interests of any Seller Group Member, on the one hand, and the Purchaser and the Company, on the other hand, in any such matter.

The Purchaser and the Company agree that, as to all privileged communications prior to the Closing solely among Mayer Brown LLP, on the one hand and the members of the Company Group, the Seller, the Seller’s Affiliates and/or Representatives, on the other hand, that relate in any way to the Transactions, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence, to the extent relevant, belongs to the Seller and may be controlled by the Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by the

116

Purchaser or the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (a) the Seller and its Affiliates (and not the members of the Company Group) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of the members of the Company Group shall be a holder thereof; and (b) Mayer Brown LLP shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any member of the Company Group by reason of any attorney-client relationship between Mayer Brown LLP and any such Person or otherwise.

Section 12.19 Financing Provisions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Seller and the Company, on behalf of themselves, their Subsidiaries and each of their controlled Affiliates, hereby: (a) agree that any legal action, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Sources, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement or the Financing, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such legal action to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agree that any such legal action shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in any agreement relating to the Financing and except to the extent relating to the interpretation of any provisions in this Agreement (including any provision in any definitive documentation related to the Financing that expressly specifies that the interpretation of such provisions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware), (c) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any such legal action brought against the Financing Sources in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement or the Financing, (d) agree that none of the Financing Sources shall have any liability to the Seller, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective controlled Affiliates or Representatives relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Financing (subject to the last sentence of this Section 12.19), and (e) agree not to (and agree not to permit any of their respective Subsidiaries, controlled Affiliates or Representatives to) seek any action for specific performance against any of the Financing Sources relating to or arising out of this agreement or the Financing and (f) agree that the Financing Sources are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of this Section 12.19 and that this Section 12.19 may not be amended in a manner materially adverse to the Financing Sources without the written consent of the Financing Sources (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
