Section 8.2 Mutual Covenants. The parties hereto mutually covenant (subject to the other terms of this Agreement):

(a) from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, to cooperate with each other in determining whether filings or notifications are required to be made or consents (including any Required Consents) are required to be obtained in any jurisdiction in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which consents shall not, in

32

any event, include any consent the need for which is obviated by the Sale Order or otherwise by the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code; provided, however, that Sellers shall make or cause to be made any such filings as reasonably required or requested to timely obtain the Required Consents; provided, further however that each party hereto shall furnish to the other and to the other’s counsel all such information as may be reasonably required in order to effectuate the foregoing action; and

(b) from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, to advise the other party promptly if such party determines that any condition precedent to its obligations hereunder shall not be satisfied in a timely manner.

Section 8.3 Access to Information. Prior to and through the date on which the Closing occurs or this Agreement is terminated, the Purchasers shall be permitted to discuss the Purchasers’ entering into this Agreement and its intent to acquire the Purchased Assets subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, if applicable, with current customers, vendors and other key stakeholders of the Business and the Sellers shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, cooperate with the Purchasers and shall give the Purchasers and its representatives (including the Purchasers’ accountants, consultants, counsel and employees), upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, full access to all properties, Contracts, customers, vendors, leases, equipment, employees, affairs, books, documents, records and other information of the Sellers to the extent relating to the Business, the Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities, and any other aspect of this Agreement and shall cause their respective officers, employees, agents and representatives to furnish to the Purchasers all available documents, records and other information (and copies thereof), to the extent relating to the Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities, and any other aspect of this Agreement, in each case, as the Purchasers may reasonably request. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such investigation or examination shall be permitted to the extent that it would require any Seller to disclose information subject to attorney-client privilege.

Section 8.4 Public Announcement. No party hereto shall make or issue, or cause to be made or issued, any public announcement or written statement concerning this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby without making reasonable and good faith efforts to consult with and seek input from the other parties hereto prior to release about the content of any such announcement or statement or unless counsel to such party advises that such announcement or statement is required by law (such as an obligation to disclose under federal securities laws of the United States) (in which case the parties hereto shall make reasonable efforts to consult with each other prior to such required announcement).

The Purchasers agree to maintain the files or records which are contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 8.5 for six (6) years following the Closing Date.

33

Section 8.6 Taxes.

(a) Subject to Section 8.6(b) and (f) (which shall govern any transfer Taxes), the Sellers shall be responsible for and pay or discharge all Taxes of the Sellers and their Affiliates, and all Taxes in connection with, relating to or arising out of the Business, the Excluded Assets, the Excluded Liabilities or the ownership of the Purchased Assets, or the Assumed Liabilities attributable to taxable periods, or portions thereof, ending on or before the Closing Date, which Taxes shall be an Excluded Liability.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any Purchased Asset, the Sellers and the Purchasers shall apportion the liability for real and personal property Taxes, ad valorem Taxes, and similar Taxes (“Periodic Taxes”) for Straddle Periods applicable to such Purchased Asset in accordance with this Section 8.6(b). The Periodic Taxes described in this Section 8.6(b) shall be apportioned between the Sellers and the Purchasers as of the Closing Date, with the Purchasers liable for that portion of the Periodic Taxes for a Straddle Period equal to the Periodic Taxes for such Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days remaining in such Straddle Period after the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such entire Straddle Period (which portion of such Taxes shall for purposes of this Agreement be deemed an Assumed Liability). The Sellers shall be liable for that portion of the Periodic Taxes for a Straddle Period for which the Purchasers are not liable under the preceding sentence (which portion of such Taxes shall for purposes of this Agreement be deemed an Excluded Liability). The party hereto responsible under applicable Law for paying a Tax described in this Section 8.6(b) shall be responsible for administering the payment of such Tax. To the extent the liability for Periodic Taxes for a certain Straddle Period is not determinable at the time of Closing or such Periodic Taxes are charged in arrears, such Periodic Taxes shall be prorated for such Straddle Period, based on the most recent ascertainable full tax year. For purposes of this Section 8.6(b), the Straddle Period for ad valorem Taxes and real and personal property Taxes shall be the fiscal period for which such Taxes were assessed by the applicable Tax jurisdiction. The Sellers, on the one hand, or the Purchasers, on the other hand, as the case may be (the “Reimbursing Party”), shall promptly provide reimbursement for any Tax paid by the other (the “Paying Party”), all or a portion of which is the responsibility of the Reimbursing Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including this Section 8.6). Within a reasonable time prior to the payment of any such Tax, the Paying Party shall give notice to the Reimbursing Party of the Tax payable and the Paying Party’s and Reimbursing Party’s respective liability therefor, although failure to do so shall not relieve the Reimbursing Party from its liability hereunder except to the extent the Reimbursing Party is actually prejudiced thereby.

(c) The Sellers and the Purchasers shall (i) provide such assistance as may reasonably be requested by either of them in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return, any audit or other examination by any taxing authority or any judicial or administrative proceeding with respect to Taxes, (ii) retain and provide the other with any records or other information which may be relevant to such return, audit, examination or proceeding, and (iii) provide the other with any final determination of any such audit or examination proceeding or determination that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax Return of the other for any period (which shall be maintained confidentially); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the Purchasers nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to provide any Tax information that it regards as privileged or confidential, including any Tax Return of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

34

(d) The parties shall (i) for purposes of taxes imposed under the United States Federal Unemployment Tax Act and the United States Federal Insurance Contributions Act, treat each Purchaser as a “successor employer” and the applicable Seller as a “predecessor,” within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code, with respect to any employees of the Sellers who become employees of either Purchaser (including the Transferred Employees) and (ii) implement the alternate procedure described in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53 (provided that at or prior to Closing, the Sellers have provided to each Purchaser all information reasonably necessary to implement such alternative procedure), in each case, to the extent applicable.

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) Purchasers and Sellers shall cooperate in preparing, executing and filing sales, use, real estate, transfer and similar Tax Returns relating to the purchase and sale of the Assets, and also shall cooperate to minimize or avoid any transfer Taxes that might be imposed to the extent permitted by applicable Law (such as, for example and not by way of limitation, Purchaser providing any Seller with a copy of Purchaser’s resale certificate, or such other instruments as will relieve Purchaser or a Seller from Liability for any transfer Tax). Purchasers shall be responsible for all such transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets contemplated by this Agreement, including any interest or penalties in respect thereof. The Purchase Price (and any other consideration required to be taken into account for purposes of determining the amounts of such Taxes) with respect to Purchased Assets subject to such Taxes shall be allocated for such purpose in a manner consistent with the Allocation as finally determined

Section 8.7 Good Faith Efforts. Without limiting the specific obligations of any party hereto under any covenant or agreement hereunder, each party hereto shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use its good faith efforts to take all action and do all things necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated in this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, however, that (a) no party hereto or its Affiliates shall be required to make any concessions that would adversely affect its business or be materially more burdensome to such party (including to amend any contract to increase the amount payable thereunder, commence any litigation, settle or compromise any matter, offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party or Governmental Authority, pay any amount or bear any other incremental economic burden to obtain any consent or order or to effect the assignment or transfer of a Purchased Asset), (b) no party hereto or its Affiliates shall incur any expense that would be payable or otherwise borne by another party hereto or such other party’s Affiliates without the consent of such other party, (c) the Sellers shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to not, make any concessions that would purport to bind the Business from and after the Closing or be an Assumed Liability and (d) the Purchasers shall not make any concessions that would purport to bind any Seller or any of their Affiliates.

35

Section 8.8 Employees.

(a) Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.8 and applicable law, each Purchaser shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, effective upon the Closing, offer employment to certain Business Employees who are employed by the Sellers or their Affiliates as of the Closing, identified in writing by such Purchaser to the Sellers any time on or before one (1) business day prior to the Closing Date. Employees who accept such offers or whose employment otherwise transfers by operation of Law and become either full-time or part-time employees of an applicable Purchaser, or its Affiliate, upon the Closing (or thereafter consistent with applicable Law) are hereinafter referred to as “Transferred Employees.”

(b) The Sellers shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, (i) use reasonable commercial efforts to assist the applicable Purchaser in securing the employment of the employees, (ii) deliver assignment of the Employment Contracts to Circles with the employees identified to Sellers within three (3) days prior to Closing and (iii) pay such Business Employees all amounts that are or become owing, up to and including the Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all wages, bonuses, commissions, and other amounts that become owing to any Business Employee due to the termination of such Business Employee’s employment with any Seller or Affiliate effective upon Closing), as such amounts become due.

(c) With respect to those Transferred Employees that the Sellers and such applicable Purchaser mutually agree will have their employment transfer by operation of Law, each Seller agrees, with respect to themselves and their Affiliates, that it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) up to and including the Closing, comply with all of its material obligations and those of any of its predecessors (whether or not legally binding or in respect of which it would be expected to comply by any regulatory or other body to which it is subject) due to or in connection with such Transferred Employees (or any of such obligations such Seller would have had under or in connection with such contracts but for their transfer under applicable Law); (ii) provide to such applicable Purchaser such information as such applicable Purchaser may reasonably request in writing in order to verify such compliance; (iii) not alter (whether to take effect before, on or after the Closing) any of the material terms of employment or engagement of any of such Transferred Employees (without the prior written consent of such applicable Purchaser); (iv) not terminate or take any steps to terminate (constructively or otherwise) the employment of any of such Transferred Employees (without the prior written consent of such applicable Purchaser which shall not be unreasonably withheld), other than terminations for cause; (v) not employ, engage, or transfer any person who is not a Business Employee to work in the Business (without the prior written consent of such applicable Purchaser which shall not be unreasonably withheld); (vi) comply in all material respects with its obligations under applicable Law that derive from the Acquired Rights Directive 77/187/EC (as subsequently amended by the Transfers of Undertakings Directive 2001/23/EC) and provide such applicable Purchaser with such information as it reasonably requires in order to comply with its own such obligations; and (vii) subject to any requirements under the Data Protection Act 2018, facilitate an orderly transfer of the employment (and records relating to employment) of such Transferred Employees and will cooperate with such applicable Purchaser in relation to any reasonable requests that such applicable Purchaser may make to meet or communicate with Business Employees prior to the Closing in order to discuss the proposed transfer of employment to such applicable Purchaser; provided that prior to such meeting or communication, the nature and scope of such meeting or communication must be approved by the Sellers, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be deemed given if the Sellers has not responded within one (1) business day

36

of being provided written notice thereof. Notwithstanding the transfer by operation of Law of the Transferred Employees described in this Section 8.8(c), the aggregate amount of all Liabilities (including wages, bonuses, commissions, and vacation) relating to the employment of such Transferred Employees that accrue before Closing shall either be paid by the Sellers prior to the Closing.

(e) On or before May 20, 2022, Sellers shall provide Purchasers with all employment, consulting, severance or indemnification contracts between the Sellers or any Affiliate of any Seller and any employees who work for or directly or indirectly support the Business (the “Business Employees”), except for offer letters or contracts that may be terminated “at will” and do not contain post-termination obligations in excess of any such obligations imposed by applicable Law.

(f) On or before May 20, 2022, the Sellers shall deliver a true and complete list, organized by country, of all Business Employees to the Purchasers, which list includes each employee’s name, position and title, employment entity, department, work location, scope of employment (e.g., full- or part-time or temporary), overtime classification (e.g., exempt or non-exempt), date of commencement of employment, prior notice entitlement, salary and any and all other compensation or benefit payable, maintained or contributed to or with respect to which any potential liability is borne by the Sellers or any Affiliate of any Seller (whether now or in the future, by virtue of any Law, Contract or otherwise) to each of the listed employees (the “Employee Census”). On or before May 20, 2022, the Sellers have delivered a true and complete list of all present material independent contractors and consultants (“Contractors”) engaged by each Seller with respect to the Business, which list includes each Contractor’s name, date of commencement, and rate of all regular compensation and benefits, bonus or any other compensation payable.

From time to time after the Closing and without further consideration, each Purchaser and each Seller, at the request of the other party, shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance and transfer or other instruments or documents and take or arrange for such other actions, as may reasonably be required to effect any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to provide any party hereto with the benefits intended to be conferred and conveyed by this Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.9 or any other provision of this Agreement, neither Purchaser nor any Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to execute any document or take any action that would (i) increase the liability or obligation of the party of whom such document or action is requested beyond that which such party would have pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, (ii) require or cause the party of whom such action or document is requested to initiate, join in or otherwise become a party to any Legal Proceeding, or (iii) cause such party to incur any material cost or expense that is not already imposed upon it by another provision of this Agreement.

For avoidance of doubt, any Confidential Information of the Sellers and their Affiliates relating to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Contracts shall be deemed to be Confidential Information of the Purchasers as of the Closing (“Deemed Purchaser Confidential Information”), notwithstanding the fact that the Sellers or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or representatives have knowledge of such Deemed Purchaser Confidential Information obtained prior to the negotiation and performance of this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) Confidential Information of the Sellers relating to the Excluded Assets, Excluded Liabilities and the Excluded Contracts shall not be deemed to be Deemed Purchaser Confidential Information, and (ii) the Sellers shall be permitted to disclose to potential purchasers of its Excluded Assets, the Confidential Information regarding shared use assets or contracts solely to the extent necessary to provide (or arrange for the provision of) transitional services to any such purchaser. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the NDA, the Purchasers may, in accordance with this Agreement, at any time after the date hereof, issue a joint press release announcing this Agreement, the existence of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Break Up Fee and the Expense Reimbursement may be paid from the proceeds of such Alternative Transaction and shall constitute an allowed administrative expense claim in the Bankruptcy Cases with priority of the kind specified in sections 503 and 507 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 12.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law, but only as long as the continued validity, legality and enforceability of such provision or application does not materially (a) alter the terms of this Agreement, (b) diminish the benefits of this Agreement or (c) increase the burdens of this Agreement, for any Person. Upon a determination that any term or other provision is invalid or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the parties hereto to the fullest extent possible.

Section 12.10 Section Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the parties hereto and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 12.11 Interpretation. As all parties hereto have participated in the drafting of this Agreement, any ambiguity shall not be construed against any party as the drafter. Unless the context of this Agreement clearly requires otherwise, (a) “or” has the inclusive meaning frequently identified with the phrase “and/or,” (b) “including” has the inclusive meaning frequently identified with the phrase “including, but not limited to” and (c) references to “hereof,” “hereunder” or “herein” or words of similar import relate to this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, words in this Agreement using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other genders.

Section 12.12 Third Parties. Nothing herein, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any Person other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except each of the First Lien Agent, the Second Lien Agent and the Releasees (defined below) shall each be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Section 12.13 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur to the Purchasers, the First Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) and the Second Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) and that the Purchasers, the First Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) and the Second Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific

48

consent or approval rights herein) would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the other provisions this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that, the Purchasers, the First Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) and the Second Lien Agent (solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (with respect to each of the First Lien Agent, solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein and the Second Lien Agent, solely with respect to its specific consent or approval rights herein) without proof of actual damages or otherwise (and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, each of the Sellers hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Purchasers are entitled at law or in equity. The Sellers shall not be entitled to any injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 12.14 Release. Upon Closing, Purchasers, on behalf of the Purchasers and their respective Affiliates (including the entities acquired at Closing as part of the Purchased Assets) and each of their respective principals, trustees, officers, and directors (whether acting in such capacity or individually), attorneys, accountants, nominees, agents (alleged, apparent, or actual), representatives, employees, managers, administrators, and each person or entity acting or purporting to act for them or on their behalf, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably remise, waive, satisfy, release, acquit, and forever discharge Sellers and each of their principals, trustees, officers, and directors (acting in such capacity), attorneys, accountants, nominees, agents (alleged, apparent, or actual), representatives, employees, managers, administrators, and each person or entity acting or purporting to act for them or on their behalf (collectively, the “Releasees”) from and against any and all past and present claims, counterclaims, actions, suits, rights, causes of action, lawsuits, set-offs, costs, losses, controversies, agreements, promises and demands, or liabilities, of whatever kind or character, direct or indirect, whether known or unknown or capable of being known, arising at law or in equity, by right of action or otherwise, from any claim that they have or may have against the Releasees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the release set forth in this Section 12.14 shall not apply in the case of claims, counterclaims, actions, suits, rights, causes of action, lawsuits, set-offs, costs, losses, controversies, agreements, promises and demands, or liabilities arising out of fraud, gross negligence or intentional misrepresentation.

Section 12.15 Schedules. The disclosure of any matter in any section or subsection of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to be a disclosure under any other section or subsection of such Disclosure Schedule to the extent such other section or subsection is referenced herein and the relevance of such item to such section or subsection referenced herein is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure. The mere inclusion of any item in any section or subsection of any of the Disclosure Schedules, as an exception to any representation or warranty or otherwise shall not be deemed to constitute an admission by Sellers, or to otherwise imply, that any such item has had or is reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or otherwise represents an exception or material fact, event or circumstance for the purposes of this Agreement, that such item meets or exceeds a monetary or other threshold specified for disclosure in this Agreement or that such item represents a determination that the Transaction requires the consent of any third party. The sections or subsections of each Disclosure Schedule are arranged in sections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections of this Agreement.

49

Matters disclosed in any section or subsection of any of the Disclosure Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters that are required by this Agreement to be disclosed therein. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature or impose any duty or obligation to disclose any information beyond what is required by this Agreement, and disclosure of such additional matters shall not affect, directly or indirectly, the interpretation of this Agreement or the scope of the disclosure obligations hereunder. Headings inserted in the sections or subsections of any of the Disclosure Schedules are for convenience of reference only and shall to no extent have the effect of amending or changing the express terms of the Sections or subsections as set forth in this Agreement.
