Prior to the Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), Seller will confer with Purchaser concerning operating or other matters of a material nature that are related to the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01, the Seller or any Seller Party (i) will be permitted, without the prior consent of Purchaser, to (a) take any action to prevent,

address, or taking any act to prevent, address or mitigate the effects of any environmental release or hazard, any occupational health, safety and welfare hazard, or any emergency or (b) take or refrain from taking any actions that the Seller or such Seller Party reasonably believes necessary to comply with any Laws or Judgments of any Governmental Authority issued in response to the COVID-19 virus and (ii) shall not be prevented from taking any action, omitting from taking any action, or other matter as may be required to give effect to any provision of this Agreement or otherwise provided for in this Agreement or to comply with Law.

(b)During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement or disclosed in Section 5.01 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or as Purchaser shall otherwise consent in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), each of Seller and each of the Selling Subsidiaries covenants and agrees that, with respect to the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets, it shall not, and it shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (with respect to the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets) not to:

(i)approve any new individual capital expenditure where the cost of any such capital expenditure or expenditures would become an Assumed Liability;

(ii)dispose of any Transferred Assets, including any engineering spare parts, other than damaged or obsolete equipment or inventory in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, or incur, create or assume any Lien on the Transferred Assets that will exist on the Closing Date, other than Permitted Liens;

(iii)waive, cancel or compromise any material right or material claim of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets effective following the Closing Date;

Section 5.02Access to Information.

(a)Beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the Closing Date, Seller and each of the Selling Subsidiaries shall (i) give Purchaser and its authorized representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and on reasonable notice to the Transferred Assets, subject to Seller’s or the Selling Subsidiary’s, as applicable, policies and regulations regarding safety and security, provided that such access shall be granted under conditions which will not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of Seller, (ii) give Purchaser and its authorized representatives reasonable access during normal business hours and on reasonable notice to the books and records of the Seller Parties and their Affiliate as they may reasonably request, (iii) permit Purchaser and its authorized representatives to make such inspections as they may reasonably request, including any investigation Purchaser deems reasonably necessary or appropriate to assess the environmental condition of the Transferred Assets or the ownership and

operation of the Transferred Assets or the Easement Area, provided that such access shall be granted under conditions which will not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of Seller or any of the Selling Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (iii) cause its officers, employees and agents to furnish Purchaser and its authorized representatives with such financial and operating data and other information, including assessments, reports, or other information regarding environmental matters pertaining to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets and relevant to the continuing ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets or relevant to the transition of ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets hereunder, that is available with respect to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets as they may from time to time reasonably request; provided, however, that Seller may restrict access to the extent reasonably necessary to (x) ensure compliance with antitrust and anticompetition laws, (y) preserve the secrecy of confidential information to the extent not related to the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets and (z) preserve legal privilege. The parties hereto will make appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the proviso to the preceding sentence apply.

(b)Purchaser will hold and will cause its representatives to hold in strict confidence all documents and information concerning the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets to the extent and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement, Seller and the Selling Subsidiaries acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Closing, all information relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets shall be deemed to be confidential information of Purchaser and shall not be subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement.

(c)For seven (7) years following the Closing Date consistent with Seller’s record retention policies as currently in effect or subsequently modified, Seller will retain, at Seller’s sole expense, any records and documents relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets that were retained by Seller or any of its Affiliates (including the Selling Subsidiaries) under this Agreement (including any Books and Records). During such period, Seller will afford to Purchaser, its counsel and accountants, during normal business hours and on reasonable advance notice, reasonable access to such records and documents relating to the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets retained by Seller and permit the copying thereof at Purchaser’s expense. Following the expiration of such period, Seller may dispose of any such records and documents relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets in accordance with Seller’s document retention policies, provided that prior to such disposal, Seller provides Purchaser with reasonable advance notice of such proposed disposal and uses commercially reasonable efforts to allow Purchaser to remove such records, at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense.

(d)After the Closing Date, Seller and each of the Selling Subsidiaries shall, at the request of Purchaser, (i) provide reasonable assistance in the collection of information or documents; (ii) make Seller’s or any Selling Subsidiary’s employees available when reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection with claims or actions brought by or against third parties based upon events or circumstances which either concern Assumed Liabilities or as to which Seller’s employees would have relevant knowledge or information; and (iii) otherwise reasonably cooperate

with Purchaser in connection with the contest or defense of such claims or actions. Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Seller in providing said assistance. In each of the foregoing cases all such cooperation and assistance shall be during business hours and on reasonable notice, and subject to any legal privilege reasonably asserted by Seller. Seller shall not be required to provide any such assistance and cooperation with respect to any matter which involves, in Seller’s legal counsel’s opinion, a conflict of interest between Seller and Purchaser; provided, that, in the case of privileged material, the Seller shall use reasonable efforts to enter into such joint defense agreements or similar arrangement, so as to allow for disclosure without the loss of privilege.

(a)Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Seller and Purchaser will cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to promptly prepare and file all necessary documentation, to effect all applications, notices, petitions and filings, and to obtain as promptly as practicable all permits, consents, approvals and authorizations of all Governmental Authorities which are necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)Without limiting the foregoing:

(i)Seller and Purchaser shall take such reasonable actions following the Closing as may be necessary or appropriate to make effective the transactions contemplated hereby as may be requested by the other party, (including transferring back (i) to Seller or its designees each Excluded Asset and any asset or Liability not contemplated by this Agreement to be a Transferred Asset or an Assumed Liability, respectively, which asset or Liability was transferred to Purchaser or (ii) to Purchaser any asset or Liability contemplated by this Agreement to be a Transferred Asset or an Assumed Liability, respectively, which was not transferred to Purchaser at the Closing, as appropriate); and

(ii)this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to transfer, sell, convey, deliver or otherwise assign or an attempt to transfer, sell, convey, deliver or otherwise assign, any Permit if such action would result in a violation of applicable Law or would require the consent, authorization, approval or waiver of a Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent, authorization, approval or waiver shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing; provided, however, that the Closing shall occur notwithstanding the foregoing without any adjustment to the Purchase Price on account thereof. The beneficial interest in and to all Permits shall in any event pass to Purchaser in accordance with the terms of this Agreement at the Closing, and Seller and each of the Selling Subsidiaries covenants and agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in any lawful and economically reasonable arrangement to provide Purchaser, at Purchaser’s expense, with Seller’s or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Selling Subsidiaries) entire interest in the benefits in any such Permit. Seller and each Selling Subsidiary, shall and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, exercise or exploit their respective rights and options with respect to any such Permit referred to in this Section 5.03(b) only as reasonably directed by Purchaser; provided, that Purchaser shall be responsible for any Liability incurred by Seller or such Selling Subsidiary pursuant to

such direction. Once such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment is obtained, Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Purchaser the relevant Permit to which such consent, authorization, approval, waiver, release, substitution or amendment relates without the payment of further consideration and the obligations so assumed thereunder shall be deemed Assumed Liabilities.

(c)In addition to the requirements set forth above in this Section 5.03 (and subject to the limitations set forth therein), each of the parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective as promptly as reasonably practicable the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obtaining of all necessary waivers, consents and approvals and the fulfillment of each condition to the other party’s obligations set forth in Article VI of this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be required to expend any amounts or incur any liabilities in connection with obtaining any third-party waivers, consents or approvals).

(d)The Purchaser shall take, or cause to be taken, those actions set forth in Section 5.03(d) of the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule.

Section 5.04Public Announcements. Purchaser and Seller will consult with each other before either party or any of its Affiliates issue any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and neither Purchaser nor Seller nor any of their respective Affiliates shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior approval of the other parties to this Agreement, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as may be required by applicable Law or any securities exchange on which the securities of Purchaser or Seller or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, are listed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree to issue an announcement regarding the execution and delivery of this Agreement in form and content reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Purchaser, as soon as practicable following the execution hereof.

Section 5.05Certain Notices. Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing and Purchaser shall notify Seller in writing of (i) any notice or other communication received by Seller, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, from any person alleging that the Consent of such person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) any actions, suits, claims, investigations or Proceedings commenced or, to Seller’s or Purchaser’s, as the case may, be, Knowledge threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting Seller, any of its Affiliates, the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets or the Purchaser, as the case may be, that relate to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.06Bulk Transfer Laws. Without admitting the applicability of the bulk transfer Laws of any jurisdiction, each Seller Party, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other, have agreed to waive the compliance with the requirements of any applicable Laws relating to bulk sales. The Seller Party shall, jointly and severally, defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any losses incurred as a result of any noncompliance with any applicable bulk transfer Laws.

Section 5.07Confidentiality.

(a)From and after the Closing, each Seller Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to, keep confidential and not disclose all information solely relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets (whether in the possession of any Seller Party, its Affiliate or such Representative at the time of the Closing or subsequently obtained by any Seller Party, any of its Affiliate or any such Representative from Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the Other Transaction Documents) (“Restricted Information”), and shall not directly or indirectly use such Restricted Information for any purpose, except as and to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any Other Transaction Document. The obligation to keep such Restricted Information confidential shall continue indefinitely from the Closing Date and shall not apply to any information which (i) is in the public domain, (ii) is published or otherwise becomes part of the public domain through no fault of any Seller Party, any of its Affiliates or any of their Representatives or (iii) becomes available to Seller, any of its Affiliates or any of their Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source that did not acquire such information (directly or indirectly) from Seller or Purchaser on a confidential basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may make disclosures (i) required by Law or a securities exchange on which the securities of Seller or any of its Affiliates are listed, or (ii) on a confidential basis to Seller’s Representatives (provided that Seller shall be required to cause such Representatives to comply with the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.07) or (iii) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the operation of the refineries by Seller and the Selling Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or (iv) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the performance or enforcement of this Agreement; provided, that, with respect to clause (i), Seller, to the extent practicable, shall provide Purchaser with prompt notice thereof so that Purchaser may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.07. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained or Purchaser waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.07, the Seller Parties shall or shall cause the Person required to disclose such Restricted Information to furnish only that portion of the information that such Person is advised by counsel is legally required, and each Seller Party shall exercise its reasonable best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment is accorded the Restricted Information so furnished.

Section 5.08Supplemental Disclosure. From time to time prior to the Closing, Seller will, reasonably promptly following its becoming aware thereof, supplement or amend the Seller Disclosure Schedule with respect to any matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if known, existing or occurring at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Any supplement or amendment of the Seller Disclosure Schedule made pursuant to this Section 5.08 shall not be deemed to cure any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made or deemed to be made (pursuant to Section 6.03(b) or Section 9.01(a)(ii) in this Agreement).

Section 5.09 Transition Services Agreement; Long-Term Supply Agreements; Seller Parties’ Exclusive Right to Supplies.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the buy-out option referred to in Section 15 (Termination) of Schedule 5.09 and the terms of the right of ROFR set forth in Section 15 (Termination) of Schedule 5.09 are part of this Agreement and shall apply to the SMRs.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return or Tax Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Any information obtained under this Section 7.04 or under any other Section hereof providing for the sharing of information or review of any Tax Return or other schedule relating to Taxes of any member of the Seller Group shall be kept, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, confidential by the parties hereto and their respective legal and Tax advisors.

(a)by the mutual written agreement of Purchaser and Seller;

(b)by either Purchaser or Seller by giving written notice of such termination to the other party, if the Closing shall not have occurred by May 31, 2020, unless the failure of the Closing to occur by such date shall be due to the failure of the party seeking to terminate this Agreement to perform or observe the covenants and agreements of such party set forth herein;

(c)by either Purchaser or Seller if there shall be any Law or regulation that makes the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited or if consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement would violate any nonappealable final order, decree or Judgment of any court or governmental body having competent jurisdiction;

(e)by either Purchaser or Seller (provided that the terminating party is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained herein) if there shall have been a material breach of any of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement on the part of the other party, which breach shall not have been cured within thirty (30) days following receipt by the breaching party of written notice of such breach from the other party hereto, or which breach, by its nature, cannot be cured prior to the Closing; provided, however, that neither party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.01(e) unless the breach of covenant or agreement, together with all other such breaches, would entitle the party receiving such covenant or agreement not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby under Article VI.

Section 8.02Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted under Section 8.01, such termination shall be without liability to any party to this Agreement or to any Affiliate, shareholder, director, officer, attorney, accountant, agent, employee or representative of such party, and following such termination no party shall have any liability under this Agreement or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to any other party except as contemplated in this Section 8.02 or Section 10.01; provided that no such termination shall relieve any party that has willfully breached any provision of this Agreement from liability for such breach, and any such breaching party shall remain fully liable for any and all Damages incurred or suffered by another party to this Agreement as a result of such breach.

(b)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 9.01, (x) a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to exist either (i) if such representation or warranty is actually inaccurate or breached or (ii) would have been inaccurate or breached if such representation or warranty had not contained any limitation or qualification as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect (which instead will be read as any adverse effect or change) or similar language, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Fundamental Representations or Section 3.07(a)(ii) and Section 3.07(c), and (y) the amount of Damages in respect of any breach of a representation or warranty, including any deemed breach resulting from the application of clause (x), shall be determined without regard to any limitation or qualification as to materiality, Material Adverse Effect (which instead will be read as any adverse effect or change) or similar language set forth in such representation or warranty.

(i)contamination or pollution (including any Environmental Claims relating thereto) to the extent related to the Transferred Assets or the Easement Area, and that occurred, existed, arises out of conditions or circumstances that occurred or existed, or was caused, in whole or in part, on or before the Closing, including all on-site storage, disposal, migration or presence of Hazardous Materials, whether or not such matters are identified in Section 3.10 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule;

(ii)all Environmental Claims regarding, or Releases or threatened Releases relating to or arising, directly or indirectly, as a result of, or contamination, pollution: (A) resulting specifically from those matters identified in Section 9.02(a)(ii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the off-site transportation, storage, disposal, migration or presence of Hazardous Materials from any property or operations of the Transferred Assets or ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets or the Easement Area, and that occurred, existed, arises out of conditions or circumstances that occurred or existed, or was caused, in whole or in part, on or before the Closing; or (B) caused by any Person other than a Purchaser Indemnified Party or any of their employees, agents or contractors whether before or after the Closing; or (C) resulting from or relating to any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability, but in any event excluding any condition or circumstance caused by a Purchaser Indemnified Party or any of their employees, agents or contractors, whether before or after the Closing;

(iii)any non-compliance by, for or relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets with any Environmental Laws or Permits thereunder that occurred, existed, arises out of conditions or circumstances that occurred or existed, or was caused, in whole or in part, on or before the Closing, whether or not such matters are identified in Section 3.10 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule;

(iv)any liabilities, penalties or claims for occupational health hazards, risks or Damages that occurred, existed, arises out of conditions or circumstances that occurred or existed, or was caused, in whole or in part, on or before the Closing relating to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets, whether or not such matters are identified in the Seller Disclosure Schedule; and

(v)any liabilities, penalties, claims, costs or expenses related in any way to the Consent Decree entered in the matters captioned, United States of America et al. v. ExxonMobil Corporation et al., Case No. 05-C-5898 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois and United States of America et al. v. Motiva Enterprises LLC in the United States District Court for the Sothern District of Texas (the “Consent Decrees”), including, without limitation, any fines or penalties arising from any violation of either Consent Decree, any capital investments and any additional operation and/or maintenance costs.

(b)A Purchaser Indemnified Party will notify Seller in writing promptly after, and in any event within thirty (30) days of, a Purchaser Indemnified Party’s receipt of any written Environmental Claim of, or within thirty (30) days upon notification of any environmental condition requiring remedial investigation, clean up or corrective action giving rise to indemnification by any Seller Party hereunder. A Purchaser Indemnified Party also will provide Seller written notice promptly after, and in any event within thirty (30) days after verification of, the discovery of any Release or threatened Release of a Hazardous Material giving rise to indemnification by any Seller Party hereunder. Failure to provide such notice within the time period set forth herein will not result in the Damages relating thereto being excluded from indemnification by any Seller Party, except and then only to the extent such Seller Party has been prejudiced thereby. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, Purchaser may undertake any necessary remedial investigation, clean up or corrective action without providing the notifications set forth above to respond to an emergency condition that requires an immediate response to protect human health or the environment; as soon as practicable following such emergency response (and, in any case, no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after such response), Purchaser shall notify Seller of such response and the indemnification obligations of the applicable Seller Party shall date back to the initial investigation and response for such matter.

(c)Any Environmental Claim relating to conditions at or liability from or regarding the Easement Area, or Release or threatened Release related to the Transferred Assets or the ownership and operation of the Transferred Assets or the Easement Area, that is made or discovered after Closing shall be presumed to be subject to indemnification by the Seller Parties hereunder. In the event it is not clear whether an environmental condition or liability is attributable to Purchaser’s post-Closing activities on the Easement Area, it will be presumed that the condition or liability constitutes solely a Seller Party indemnifiable obligation, except to the extent (and then only to the extent) Seller demonstrates by a preponderance of the evidence that Purchaser caused or contributed to the condition or liability in question.

(d)In connection with any claim for indemnification under this Section 9.02, Purchaser will cooperate with all reasonable requests of Seller, including providing reasonable access to property, non-privileged (subject to a customary confidentiality agreement) records and data, and allowing Seller, at its sole cost and expense, to obtain split or duplicate samples of any testing conducted by or for Purchaser at the Easement Area.

Section 9.03Indemnification by Purchaser.

(a)From and after the Closing and subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Purchaser agrees to pay and to indemnify fully, hold harmless and defend each Seller Indemnified Party from and against any and all Damages arising out of or relating, directly or indirectly, to:

(i)any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, Related Agreement or in any certificate furnished by or on behalf of Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Agreement or any Related Agreement;

(ii)any breach of any covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement;

(iii)the Assumed Liabilities; or

(iv)any Transfer Taxes payable by Purchaser hereunder.

(b)Nothing in this Section 9.03 shall require a Seller Indemnified Party to seek to recover Damages from any third party before making a claim for indemnification pursuant to Article IX.

(c)From and after the Closing, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct or as provided in Section 9.01 or Article VII, the right to indemnification provided for in this

Section 9.03 shall be the exclusive remedy of all Seller Indemnified Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

Section 9.04Indemnification Process. The party or parties making a claim for indemnification under Section 9.01, 9.02 or 9.03 shall be, for the purposes of this Agreement, referred to as the “Indemnified Party” and the party or parties against whom such claims are asserted under this Article IX shall be, for the purposes of this Agreement, referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. All claims by any Indemnified Party under this Article IX shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a)In the event that (i) any claim, demand or Proceeding is asserted or instituted by any Person other than the parties to this Agreement or their Affiliates which could give rise to Damages for which an Indemnifying Party could be liable to an Indemnified Party under this Agreement (such claim, demand or Proceeding, a “Third Party Claim”) or (ii) any Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall have a claim to be indemnified by any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement which does not involve a Third Party Claim (such claim, a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness send to the Indemnifying Party a written notice describing in reasonable detail (based on the information then reasonably available to the Indemnified Party) the nature of such claim, demand or Proceeding and the amount or estimated amount thereof if known (which amount or estimated amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount, if any, of such claim, demand or Proceeding) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification hereunder (a “Claim Notice”). In addition, the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to deliver to the Indemnifying Party copies of all material written evidence of any claim in such Indemnified Party’s possession or control. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly following the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to a Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice or provide documents as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its respective indemnification obligations under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced as a result of such failure to give notice or provide documents.

(b)In the event of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that (i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and (ii) the Indemnifying Party proceeds in good faith. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, except as provided below. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense as provided herein, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that, except as otherwise provided herein, the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for

any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above). Notwithstanding an Indemnifying Party’s election to appoint counsel to represent an Indemnified Party in connection with a Third Party Claim, an Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if the use of counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to represent the Indemnified Party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest. If the Indemnifying Party shall (A) fail to notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to exercise its rights to defend any Third Party Claim within twenty (20) days after receipt of any Claim Notice with respect thereto or (B) after commencing or undertaking any such defense or settlement, fail to prosecute or withdraw from such defense or settlement, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense or settlement thereof, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of such Third Party Claim pursuant to the preceding sentence and proposes to settle such Third Party Claim prior to a final judgment thereon or to forego appeal with respect thereto, then the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof but, in the case of clause (B) of the preceding sentence, shall not settle such Third Party Claim or forego appeal with respect thereto without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. Except as contemplated by the prior sentence, in the event any Indemnified Party settles or compromises or consents to the entry of any Judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have waived all rights against the Indemnifying Party for indemnification under this Article IX with respect to such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms (A) does not provide for injunctive or other non-monetary relief effecting the Indemnified Party, (B) includes as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a full and unconditional release from all liability with respect to such Third Party Claim and (C) obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim.

(c)In the event of a Direct Claim the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within ninety (90) days of receipt of a Claim Notice whether or not the Indemnifying Party disputes such claim. If the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, either party may pursue a remedy at law or in equity.

(d)From and after the delivery of a Claim Notice under this Agreement, at the reasonable request of the Indemnifying Party, each Indemnified Party shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records and properties of such Indemnified Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the Claim Notice relates, and shall make employees available on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under conditions, which will not interfere with the business and operations of such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party will

not, and shall require that its representatives do not, use (except in connection with such Claim Notice or defense of a Third Party Claim or a Direct Claim) or disclose to any third person other than the Indemnifying Party’s representatives (except as may be required by applicable Law) any information obtained pursuant to this Section 9.04(d).

Section 9.05Survival.

(a)The representations and warranties of Seller and Purchaser contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for the applicable period set forth in this Section 9.05, and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under this Article IX arising out of the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Seller or Purchaser must be made prior to the termination of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 9.05. The representations and warranties in the Fundamental Representations (excluding the representations and warranties in Section 3.06(a)) and Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.04, 4.06, 4.09 and 4.10 shall survive without limit, the representations and warranties in Section 3.17 shall survive until ninety (90) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations including any extensions thereof, and all of the other representations and warranties of Seller (including the representations and warranties in Section 3.06(a)) and Purchaser contained in this Agreement and any and all claims and causes of action for indemnification under this Article IX with respect thereto shall terminate after eighteen (18) months after the Closing; it being understood that in the event notice of any claim for indemnification under Sections 9.01(a)(i) and (a)(ii) or Section 9.03(a)(i) shall have been given in accordance with Section 9.05 within the applicable survival period, the representations and warranties that are the subject of such indemnification claim shall survive with respect to such claim until such time as such claim is finally resolved.

(b)All covenants and agreements contained herein which by their terms contemplate actions or impose obligations following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of Purchaser to assume, and to indemnify Seller Indemnified Parties for, the Assumed Liabilities and the obligations of the Seller Parties to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for the Excluded Liabilities shall, in each case, survive indefinitely. Claims with respect to breaches of all other covenants and agreements contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall thereupon terminate on the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, it being understood that in the event notice of any claim for indemnification under Section 9.01(a)(iii) or Section 9.03(a)(iii) shall have been given in accordance with Section 9.05 within the applicable survival period, the covenants that are the subject of such indemnification claim shall survive with respect to such claim until such time as such claim is finally resolved.

(a)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement but subject to Section 9.06(a)(iv), the following limitations shall apply with regard to the Seller Indemnifying Parties’ obligations to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Sections 9.01(a)(i) and (ii):

(ii)No Seller Indemnifying Party shall be liable to indemnify any Purchaser Indemnified Party for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.01(a)(i) or (ii) unless (A) such Purchaser Indemnified Party has submitted Claim Notices for such claim as required by this Agreement, and (B) the aggregate amount of all claims for indemnification and Damages of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties with respect to Sections 9.01(a)(i) and (ii) (excluding individual claims and Damages less than the applicable Seller De Minimis Amounts) shall exceed an amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Seller Deductible Amount”), after which point such Seller Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against the amount of such aggregate claims for indemnification and Damages in excess of the Seller Deductible Amount (excluding individual claims for indemnification and Damages that are less than the Seller De Minimis Amount). For claims not otherwise subject to indemnification as a result of the Seller Deductible Amount, Purchaser shall keep Seller reasonably aware of the status of such claims, including amounts expended in respect thereof.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary but subject to Section 9.06(a)(iv), Seller Indemnifying Parties’ liability to indemnify pursuant to Sections 9.01(a)(i) and (ii) shall not exceed, in the aggregate, an amount equal to Fifty Three Million Dollars ($53,000,000).

(iv)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the limitations set forth in this Section 9.06 shall apply in respect of any claim or series of related claims for indemnification:

(b)Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement but subject to Section 9.06(b)(iii), the following limitations shall apply with regard to Purchaser’s obligations to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 9.03:

(i)No claim for indemnification may be made against Purchaser for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.03(a)(i) with respect to any individual action, occurrence or event subject to the indemnifications thereunder (or group of related actions, occurrences or events) unless such individual action, occurrence or event exceeds One Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Dollars ($175,000) (the “Purchaser De Minimis Amount”) (and in such case, no Damages below the Purchaser De Minimis Amount be applied to or considered for purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of the Seller Indemnified Parties’ Damages).

(ii)Purchaser shall not be liable to indemnify any Seller Indemnified Party for any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.03(a)(i) unless (A) the Seller Indemnified Parties have submitted Claim Notices for such claim for indemnification as required by this Agreement, and (B) the aggregate amount of all claims and Damages of the Seller Indemnified Parties with respect to Section 9.03 (excluding individual claims and Damages less than the applicable Purchaser De Minimis Amounts) shall exceed an amount equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (the “Purchaser Deductible Amount”), after which point Purchaser shall be obligated to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against the amount of such aggregate claims and Damages in excess of the Purchaser Deductible Amount (excluding individual claims and Damages that are less than the Purchaser De Minimis Amount). For claims not otherwise subject to indemnification as a result of the Purchaser Deductible Amount, the Seller Indemnified Party shall keep Purchaser reasonably aware of the status of such claims, include amounts expended in respect thereof.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the limitations set forth in this Section 9.06 shall apply in respect of any claim or series of related claims for indemnification pursuant to:

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, a party seeking indemnification under this Article IX may not recover duplicative losses in respect of a single set of facts or circumstances even if such facts or circumstances would constitute a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement and any right to indemnification shall be determined without duplication of recovery from such state of facts.

Section 9.07Calculation of Damages.

(a)The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Article IX shall be reduced (i) to take account of any net insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third party with respect thereto and (ii) to the extent an Indemnified Party does not use reasonable steps and use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any and all Damages in accordance with applicable Law, it being understood and agreed that (x) to the extent any Indemnified Party

undertakes such mitigation efforts, the costs of such efforts may be included in the calculation of indemnifiable Damages hereunder, and (y) to the extent that pursuant to the terms of any Other Transaction Document, Seller or its Affiliates has any right, obligation or responsibility related to any event, condition, occurrence or circumstance for which any Purchaser Indemnified Party is the Indemnified Party hereunder, the determination of whether any mitigation steps or efforts by any Purchaser Indemnified Party are reasonable or required shall take into account the rights, obligations and responsibilities of Seller and its Affiliates under such Other Transaction Documents, and no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be required to take such mitigation steps or efforts to the extent that Seller or any of its Affiliates has any obligation or responsibility with respect thereto under any Other Transaction Document.

(b)To the extent any net insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment are recovered after an indemnification payment has been made by an Indemnifying Party in respect of a claim or series of claims, the Indemnified Party shall remit such funds to the Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable.

(c)The Indemnified Party may, but need not, commence legal or other proceedings to collect indemnity, contribution or other payments from any insurer or other third party. If the Indemnified Party elects to do so, the costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Party in pursuing any insurance proceeds or indemnity, contribution or other similar payment from any insurer or other third party under clause (a) above shall reduce the amount by which the Damages are reduced pursuant to clause (a), except to the extent such costs and expenses are paid or reimbursed by such insurer or other third party. In the event that an Indemnified Party has a right of recovery against any third party non-insurers with respect to any Damages in connection with which a payment is made to such Indemnified Party by an Indemnifying Party; then (i) such Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all of the rights of recovery of such Indemnified Party against such third party with respect to such Damages; and (ii) such Indemnified Party shall execute all papers reasonably required and take all commercially reasonable action necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as are necessary to enable such Indemnifying Party to bring suit to enforce such rights in each case at the Indemnifying Party’s expense.

(d)Neither Purchaser or Seller nor their respective Affiliates shall be liable to the other party or its Affiliates under this Agreement for any punitive, consequential, lost profits or exemplary damages; provided, however, that this Section 9.07(d) shall not be construed to limit any Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification under this Article IX for punitive, consequential, lost profits or exemplary damages paid by such Indemnified Party to a third party in respect of a Third Party Claim.

To the extent not so assignable, Seller shall remit or cause to be remitted all proceeds received from insurers or other third parties in respect of such damage claims to Purchaser.

If, for any reason whatsoever, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, Purchaser shall promptly return to Seller all Books and Records furnished by Seller or any of Seller’s Affiliates, agents, employees, or representatives (including all copies, if any) and shall not use or disclose the information contained in such Books and Records for any purpose or make such information available to any other Person.

Section 10.14Dispute Resolution.

(a)Negotiation. In the event of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement (excluding the Transition Services Agreement or the Supply Agreements, which shall be governed by the terms thereof), or the performance, breach, validity, interpretation, application, or termination thereof (a “Dispute”) whether based on contract, tort, statute or other legal or equitable theory (including any claim of fraud, misrepresentation or fraudulent inducement or any question of validity or effect of this Agreement including this Section 10.14) the affected party shall notify the other party, and the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the matter within ten (10) days after the date of such notice (the “Notice Date”). Any Dispute not resolved by good faith discussion shall be referred to senior executives of each party, who shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and location within thirty (30) days after the Notice Date and attempt to negotiate a settlement.

(b)Arbitration. If a Dispute remains unresolved within sixty (60 days) after the Notice Date, or if the senior executives fail to meet within thirty (30) days after the Notice Date, such Dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 10.14. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with this Agreement and the then-current American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) Commercial Arbitration Rules including Procedures for Large, Complex Commercial Disputes and Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection (such rules and procedures, collectively, the “AAA Rules”), and judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. A party may initiate an arbitration by submitting a Demand for Arbitration with the AAA and the other party after the expiration of the applicable time periods set forth in the first sentence of this Section 10.14(b) (the “Demand for Arbitration”).

(c)Seat of the Arbitration. The seat of the arbitration shall be New York City, New York. The language of the arbitration shall be English. Upon agreement of the parties and the arbitrators, pre-hearing conferences and evidentiary hearings may be held in other locations, however the seat of the arbitration will be deemed to remain unchanged and any awards or orders will be deemed to have been made at the seat of the arbitration. The arbitrator(s) shall decide the issues submitted as arbitrators at law only and the arbitral panel shall base its award, and any interim awards, upon the terms of this Agreement, including Section 10.06. The arbitral panel is not empowered to and shall not act as amiable compositeurs or ex aequo et bono (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement).

(d)Selection and Appointment of Arbitrator. In the event that any party’s claim or counterclaim equals or exceeds, directly or indirectly, Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) (including a claim for injunctive relief, declaratory relief or other relief that is reasonably expected to have an economic impact on any party in excess of $5,000,000), exclusive of interest or attorneys’ fees, the Dispute shall be heard and determined by three (3) arbitrators; otherwise, the Dispute shall be heard and determined by one (1) arbitrator. Any and all arbitrators appointed hereunder shall be independent and impartial.

(i)In the event that one (1) arbitrator shall hear the Dispute, the parties shall attempt to agree upon a qualified individual to serve as arbitrator. If the parties are unable to so agree within thirty (30) days of the Demand for Arbitration, then the Dispute shall be heard and determined by three (3) arbitrators selected and appointed in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 10.14.

(ii)In the event that three (3) arbitrators shall hear the Dispute, the parties shall, within twenty (20) days after the Demand for Arbitration (or within twenty (20) days after expiration of the initial thirty (30) day period if three (3) arbitrators are being appointed pursuant to  Section 10.14(d)(i)), each select one person to act as arbitrator. The two arbitrators so selected shall, within twenty (20) days of their appointment, select a third arbitrator who shall serve as the chairperson of the arbitral panel.

(iii)If a party fails to appoint an arbitrator as provided herein, or if the arbitrators selected by the parties are unable or fail to agree upon a third arbitrator within twenty (20) days of their appointment, then that arbitrator shall be selected and appointed pursuant to the selection procedure set forth in the AAA Rules; provided, however, that such selection and appointment shall be conducted on an expedited basis and shall be completed within twenty (20) days from failure to appoint or to agree within the periods stated above.

(iv)If there are multiple claimants or multiple respondents in any arbitration having three (3) arbitrators, and such claimants or respondents are unable to agree among themselves on the selection and appointment of an arbitrator within twenty (20) days after the Demand for Arbitration, then that arbitrator shall be selected and appointed in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 10.14(d)(iv) of this Agreement. In such circumstances, the claimant or claimants shall jointly select one arbitrator, and the respondent or respondents shall jointly select one arbitrator, within forty (40) days after submission of the Demand for Arbitration. If either the claimant or claimants on the one hand, or the respondent or respondents on the other hand, are able to select their respective arbitrator with the time period set forth herein, then, at any party’s request, the AAA shall appoint all of the arbitrators.

(v)Should an arbitrator die, resign, refuse to act, or become incapable of performing his or her functions as an arbitrator, the AAA may declare a vacancy on the arbitral panel. The vacancy shall be filled by the method by which that arbitrator was originally appointed.

(vi)The arbitrator(s) shall be bound by and shall follow the then current ABA/AAA Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes.

(vii)The arbitrator(s) shall decide the threshold issue of arbitrability.

(viii)At the request of a party, the arbitrator(s) may take such interim measures and make such interim orders as it deems necessary, including measures for the preservation of assets, the conservation of goods, or the sale of perishable goods. The arbitrator(s) may require appropriate security as a condition of ordering such measures.

(ix)At any time after the arbitral panel is constituted and upon motion of any party, the arbitral panel may hear and determine any preliminary issue of law asserted by a party to be dispositive, in whole or in part, of any claim or defense, pursuant to such procedures as the arbitral panel deems appropriate.

(x)At any time after the arbitral panel is constituted and upon motion of any party, the arbitral panel may summarily determine and dismiss, in whole or in part, any claim or issue in dispute (i) if the party asserting it has failed to state a claim as a matter of law, or (ii) if the pleadings and evidence show that no genuine issue of material fact exists with respect to any element of the claim or defense and that the moving party is entitled to disposition of the claim or defense as a matter of law.

(xi)If the arbitrator(s) deems it appropriate, keeping in mind the expedited nature of arbitration proceedings, the arbitral proceedings may be bifurcated according to claims or issues, and claims or issues may be heard and determined separately as may be appropriate.

(xii)The parties shall promptly exchange copies of all exhibits and witness lists, and, if requested by a party, to produce other relevant documents, to answer a reasonable amount of interrogatories (including subparts), to respond to a reasonable amount of requests for admissions (which shall be deemed admitted if not denied) and to produce for deposition and, if requested, at the hearing all witnesses that such party has listed. Any discovery disputes shall be resolved by agreement of the parties or as ordered by the arbitral panel upon a finding of good cause.

(xiii)The arbitral panel shall take into account applicable principles of legal privilege and related protections, such as those involving the confidentiality of communications between a lawyer and a client and the work product of a lawyer, and no party or witness may be required to waive any privilege recognized at law. The arbitral panel shall issue orders as reasonably necessary to protect the confidentiality of proprietary information, trade secrets, and other sensitive information disclosed.

(e)Awards and Relief.

(i)All awards shall be in writing, shall state the reasoning upon which the award rests and shall be final and binding on the parties. Any award shall be made and signed by at least a majority of the arbitrators. The parties shall undertake to carry out the award without delay.

(ii)The parties hereby waive any claim to exemplary, punitive, or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses of arbitration, and the arbitral panel is not empowered to and shall not award exemplary, punitive, or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses of arbitration.

(iii)The arbitral panel is expressly empowered to grant any remedy or relief not expressly prohibited herein available under applicable Law, including specific performance of this Agreement to the extent allowed by applicable Law, declaration of the validity, meaning, and effect of this Agreement and the rights or duties of the parties hereunder, and, to the extent allowed by applicable Law, prohibiting or mandating actions

by a party with respect to the performance of this Agreement or matters arising out of or in connection therewith.

(iv)In its award, the arbitral panel may apportion the costs of arbitration between or among the parties in such manner as it deems reasonable, taking into account the circumstances of the case, the conduct of the parties during the proceedings, and the result of the arbitration, including requiring one party to bear all or the majority of such costs.

(v)In the event that any party fails or refuses to participate in arbitration as provided herein, the arbitral panel is authorized to determine whether the failure to participate in the arbitration was due to the bad faith of a party, and if so may award to the other party or parties all costs associated with the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and costs, arbitrator’s fees, and administrative fees.

(vi)Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitral panel as part of its award, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and the costs of arbitration, and the fees and expenses of the arbitrators and of any expert or other assistance engaged by the arbitral panel shall be borne by the parties to the arbitration in equal shares.

(vii)The failure or refusal of any party, having been given due notice thereof, to participate at any stage of the dispute resolution proceedings shall not prevent the proceedings from continuing, nor shall such failure or refusal impair the validity of the award or cause the award to be void or voidable, nor shall it be a basis for challenge of the validity or enforceability of the award or of the arbitration proceedings.

(viii)If any party fails to timely pay an advance on fees and costs ordered by the arbitral panel or the AAA within twenty (20) days after the date set for such deposit, that party shall be deemed to be in default. The arbitral panel or the AAA shall then determine whether the funds on deposit are sufficient to satisfy the anticipated estimated expenses for the proceeding to continue on an expedited basis without the participation of the defaulting party. If so, the proceeding will continue without the participation of the defaulting party, and the arbitral panel may enter an award on default. Prior to entering an award on default, the arbitral panel shall require the non-defaulting party to produce such evidence and legal argument in support of its contentions as the arbitral panel may deem appropriate. The arbitral panel may receive such evidence and argument without the defaulting party’s presence or participation. If the funds on deposit are deemed insufficient to satisfy the estimated costs of continuing as provided herein, the non-defaulting party may make all or part of the requested deposit in an amount sufficient to allow the proceeding to continue without the participation of the defaulting party. If the non-defaulting party chooses not to make the requested deposit, the arbitral panel may suspend or terminate the proceedings.

(ix)In accepting appointment, the arbitrator(s) shall commit that their schedules permit them to devote the reasonably necessary time and attention to the arbitration proceedings and to resolving the Dispute within the time periods set by this Agreement and by the AAA Rules.

(x)Any time limits set out in this dispute resolution agreement or in the AAA Rules may be modified upon written agreement of the parties and the arbitral panel or by order of the arbitral panel.

(xi)Any failure of the arbitral panel to satisfy such time limits or to render a final award within the time specified shall not impair the validity of the award or cause the award to be void or voidable, nor shall it be a basis for challenge of the validity or enforceability of the award or of the arbitration proceedings.

(xii)In accordance with Section 10.15(a), at any time after submission of a written notice of arbitration, any party may request a court of competent jurisdiction to grant interim measures of protection: (i) to preserve the status quo pending resolution of the Dispute; (ii) to prevent the destruction of documents and other information or things related to the Dispute; (iii) to prevent the transfer, dissipation, or hiding of assets; and/or (iv) to aid the arbitral proceedings and the award. A request for such interim measures to a judicial authority shall not be deemed incompatible with or a waiver of a party’s right to arbitrate a Dispute.

(xiii)The parties agree that where two or more arbitrations are pending between the parties where common questions of law or fact exist, then, at the request of any party, the arbitral panel in the first-commenced arbitration may consolidate the arbitrations if it determines that common questions of law or fact exist.

(xiv)Unless the parties agree otherwise via a prior written agreement, the parties, the arbitrator(s), and the AAA shall treat the dispute resolution proceedings provided for herein, any related disclosures, and the decisions of the arbitral panel, as confidential, except in connection with judicial proceedings ancillary to the dispute resolution proceedings, such as a judicial challenge to, or enforcement of, the arbitral award, and unless otherwise required by law to protect a legal right of a party.

(xv)The terms of this Section 10.14 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(f)Performance to Continue. Each party shall continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement pending final resolution of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement; provided, however, that a party may suspend performance of its obligations during any period in which the other party fails or refuses to perform its obligations.

(g)Provisional Remedies. Either party may seek a preliminary injunction or other provisional equitable relief if, in its reasonable judgment, such action is necessary to avoid irreparable harm to itself or to preserve its right under this Agreement.

(h)Statute of Limitations. The parties agree that all applicable statutes of limitation and time-based defenses (such as estoppel and laches) shall be tolled while the procedures set forth in Sections 10.14(a) and 10.14(b) are pending. The parties shall take any actions necessary to effectuate this result.

Section 10.15Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a)By agreeing to arbitration, the parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings, or over the enforcement of any arbitral award. Without prejudice to such provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a court, the arbitrator(s) shall have full authority to grant provisional remedies and to direct the parties to request that any court modify or vacate any temporary or preliminary relief issued by such court, and to award damages for the failure of any party to respect the arbitral panel’s orders to that effect. For purposes of any judicial action pursuant to this clause: (i) each of the parties irrevocably and unconditionally consent and submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, or if such courts do not have jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County (“New York Courts”); (ii) each of the parties irrevocably waives the right to a trial by jury in connection with any proceedings brought under this Section 10.15 and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any defense or objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any proceedings brought under Section 10.15, including any claim that any such proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b)Each party will maintain at all times a duly appointed agent in the State of New York for the service of any process or summons in connection with any such dispute, litigation, action or proceeding brought in any such court and, if it fails to maintain such an agent during any period, any such process or summons may be served on it by mailing a copy of such process or summons to it at its address set forth, and in the manner provided, in Section 10.03, with such service deemed effective on the fifteenth day after the date of such mailing.

Section 10.16Binding Effect; No Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors, permitted assigns and legal representatives. Except as provided below, this Agreement is not assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any other purported assignment shall be null and void; provided, however, that any party hereto may assign its rights (but not its obligations) under this Agreement (including in the case of Purchaser the right to purchase some of the Transferred Assets) to one or more of its Affiliates; provided, further, that such party shall remain liable hereunder.

Section 10.17Preparation of Agreement. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and this Agreement shall be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted.

Section 10.18Specific Performance. Each party acknowledges that it shall be inadequate or impossible, or both, to measure in money the damage to any other aggrieved party, if such party fails to comply with any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement that are to be performed prior to, on or following the Closing Date, and that in the event of any such failure, irreparable damage would occur and the aggrieved party shall not have an adequate remedy at law or in damages.

Therefore, each party consents to the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives (a) the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Section 10.19No Recourse.

(a)No past, present, or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, or representative of Seller or its Affiliates shall have any liability for any Liabilities of Seller Parties under this Agreement or the agreements contemplated hereby or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, except as expressly set forth herein or under any Other Transaction Document.

(b)No past, present, or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, or representative of Purchaser or its Affiliates shall have any liability for any Liabilities of Purchaser under this Agreement or the agreements contemplated hereby or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, except as expressly set forth herein or under any Other Transaction Document.

Each of the parties to this Agreement has caused this Agreement to be executed on its behalf by its duly authorized representative, all as of the date first above written.
