Section 7.4 Further Assurances. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and until the complete dissolution and liquidation or the consummation of a plan of reorganization of the Selling Entities or earlier termination of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Legal Requirements to consummate and make effective the sale of the Purchased Assets and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with this Agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, the standard of commercial reasonableness shall be interpreted with regard to the Selling Entities in light of their then current resources; provided further that following the Closing, except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, all costs associated with complying with this provision shall be borne by the Buyer. The Selling Entities shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 to be satisfied on a timely basis; provided that no Selling Entity shall be required to commence any cause of action to cause such conditions to be satisfied. The Buyer shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 to be satisfied on a timely basis. Promptly following the Closing, the Seller shall deliver a confirmatory license consistent with the license grant set forth in Section 4.4 for recordation at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Neither the Selling Entities, on the one hand, nor the Buyer, on the other hand, shall, without the prior written consent of the other, take any action which would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impede, interfere with or delay the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. From time to time, on or after the Closing Date until the dissolution and liquidation of the Selling Entities, the Selling Entities shall execute and deliver such documents to the Buyer as the Buyer may reasonably request in order to more effectively vest in the Buyer all of the Selling Entities’ right, title and interest to the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances). Nothing in this Section 7.4(a) shall prohibit the Seller from taking such actions as are necessary to conduct the Auction.

(b) In the event that any Purchased Asset shall not have been conveyed to the Buyer at the Closing, the Selling Entities (until the liquidation and dissolution thereof and, except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, at the expense of the Buyer) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to convey such Purchased Asset to the Buyer as promptly as is practicable after the Closing provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, following the Closing, the standard of commercial reasonableness shall be interpreted with regard to the Selling Entities in light of their then current resources.

Section 7.5 Public Statements; Cooperation. In recognition of the importance of preserving the value of the Purchased Assets and enhancing the competitive position of the Business, except as otherwise required by the Bankruptcy Court:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Buyer and the Seller shall: (1) agree upon a pre-Closing communications plan, including plans for contacting Persons having business relationships with the Selling Entities or the Acquired Subsidiaries (or the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries) (including suppliers, licensors, dealers, distributors and customers), and, in connection therewith, disclosing to such Persons the identity of the Selling Entities, the Acquired Subsidiaries (and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries) and the status and terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (and any such disclosure shall not be deemed a breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or this Agreement); and (2) cooperate and coordinate with each other with respect to contacting any such Persons and developing and implementing any such plans.

Section 7.6 Governmental Authority Approvals and Cooperation.

Prior to the Closing, each of the Selling Entities and the Buyer shall (and the Selling Entities shall cause the Acquired Subsidiaries and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries to) use its commercially reasonable efforts to make any filings and notifications, and to obtain any Consents from Governmental Authorities, required to be made and obtained under applicable Legal Requirements in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable.

(b) HSR. If applicable, each of the Buyer and the Seller shall, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) the notification and report form, if any, required for the transactions contemplated hereby and any supplemental information requested in connection therewith pursuant to the HSR Act. Any such notification and report form and supplemental information shall be in substantial compliance with the requirements of the HSR Act. Each of the Buyer and the Seller shall furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with its preparation of any filing or submission which is necessary under the HSR Act. The Seller and the Buyer shall keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from, the FTC and the DOJ. If such a filing is made, each of the Buyer and the Seller shall seek early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any clearance as promptly as possible required under the HSR Act for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

In addition, subject to any restrictions under applicable Legal Requirements, none of the Selling Entities or the Buyer shall (and the Selling Entities shall ensure that the Acquired Subsidiaries and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries do not) agree to participate in any meeting with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any such filing, notification or request for Consent related thereto unless it consults with the other party hereto in advance and, to the extent permitted by any such Governmental Authority and applicable Legal Requirements, gives the other party hereto the opportunity to attend and participate

-25-

thereat, in each case to the maximum extent practicable. Subject to any restrictions under applicable Legal Requirements, the Selling Entities and the Buyer shall furnish (and the Selling Entities shall cause the Acquired Subsidiaries and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries to furnish) the Buyer or the Selling Entities, as the case may be, with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications between it and its Affiliates (and their respective Representatives) on the one hand, and the Governmental Authority or members of its staff on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any such filing, notification or request for Consent related thereto (in each case, excluding documents and communications which are subject to preexisting confidentiality agreements or to the attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine). Subject to any restrictions under applicable Legal Requirements, each of the Selling Entities and the Buyer shall also furnish each other party hereto with (and the Selling Entities shall cause the Acquired Subsidiaries and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries to furnish the Buyer with) such necessary information and assistance as such other party and its Affiliates may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings, registrations or submissions of information to any Governmental Authority in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby and any such filing, notification or request for Consent related thereto.

Section 7.7 Employee Matters.

(a) At least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Buyer shall provide the Seller with a list of any Employees (the “Specified Employees”) to whom the Buyer intends to make an offer of employment (it being understood that, except as described on Annex A, the terms and conditions of any offer of employment shall be determined by the Buyer in its sole discretion). If the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall be liable for any employment law violations that arise from the Buyer’s actions taken in selecting Employees for the list of Specified Employees. Prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall make the offers of employment described on Annex A.

(b) The Selling Entities shall terminate, as of the Closing, any Specified Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee as of the Closing and such termination shall be deemed to have been made at the request, and with the consent of, the Buyer.

(c) After receipt of the list of Specified Employees described in Section 7.7(a) above, but prior to the Closing Date, the Selling Entities shall terminate, effective as of a time prior to the Closing, all Persons who would otherwise be Employees as of the Closing other than: (i) the Specified Employees; and (ii) any Employees who are not Specified Employees and whom the Selling Entities decide to retain following the Closing (“Retained Employees”), and such termination shall be deemed to have been made at the request, and with the consent, of the Buyer. An Employee who satisfies the conditions described in any of clauses “(A)” through “(C)” of this sentence is referred to as a “Terminated Employee”: (A) such Employee is terminated pursuant to the preceding sentence, (B) such Employee is terminated at any other time on or after the Petition Date and prior to the Closing at the direction or with the consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld in the case of a proposed termination for “cause”); or (C) such Employee is a Specified Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee as of the Closing.

(d) If the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall process (or if it is not practicable for the Buyer to process, the Seller shall process on the Buyer’s behalf with the Buyer providing reasonable assistance to the Seller) the payroll for, and pay (or provide funds to pay), the base wages, base salary and ordinary course sales commissions accrued during the payroll period in which the Closing Date falls (the “Closing Payroll Period”) with respect to each Employee employed at any time during the Closing Payroll Period other than Retained Employees. For the avoidance of doubt, the Closing Payroll Period shall extend from the final payroll date preceding the Closing through and including the Closing Date. In connection therewith, the Buyer shall withhold and remit, on behalf of the Selling Entities, all applicable payroll taxes as required by law.

-26-

(e) With respect to each Specified Employee who accepts the offer of employment from the Buyer or its subsidiary (the “Transferred Employees”), if the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall assume the Selling Entities’ liability for all unused vacation earned and/or accrued by such Transferred Employee (it being understood that benefits under the Selling Entities’ sabbatical program shall not constitute unused vacation).

(f) With respect to each Terminated Employee and any Specified Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee or a Retained Employee, if the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall assume and pay the Selling Entities’ Liabilities: (i) for all unused vacation earned and/or accrued by such Terminated Employee; and (ii) except with respect to persons listed on Annex A and executive officers of the Seller (as to whom the Buyer shall not assume or pay any severance, change of control, bonus or similar payment or obligation, whether pursuant to any individual employment, severance or similar agreement or otherwise), for severance obligations that arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but only to the extent such severance obligations arise pursuant to the Seller’s severance plan(s) disclosed to the Buyer prior to the date of this Agreement (and not pursuant to any individual employment, severance or similar agreement). For the avoidance of doubt, any Employee of the Selling Entities whose employment is terminated by the Selling Entities without the consent of the Buyer shall not be deemed to be a “Terminated Employee” for purposes of this Section 7.7(e).

(g) With respect to Employees other than persons listed on Annex A, executive officers of the Seller and other than Retained Employees, if the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall assume and pay the Selling Entities’ Liabilities under the WARN Act (provided that, to the extent that the WARN Act is applicable to any Terminated Employee, the Selling Entities shall comply with all procedural aspects thereof through the Closing Date).

(h) If the Closing occurs, the Buyer shall assume Selling Entities’ Liability under Section 4980B of the Code (“COBRA”); provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Buyer shall not assume any Liability for making COBRA premium payments (whether or not any Selling Entity has any Liability to make such payments pursuant to any Contract, benefit plan or otherwise), except to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements. Buyer hereby acknowledges that it will be a “successor employer” for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 54.4980B-9.

(i) With respect to any medical, dental or other welfare benefits that are provided at any time to Transferred Employees under any other plan within the calendar year of the Closing, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any applicable pre-existing condition exclusions and waiting periods (except to the extent such limitations or waiting periods are already in effect with respect to such employees and have not been satisfied immediately prior to the Closing Date) to be waived, and each Transferred Employee shall be provided with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid prior to the Closing Date in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any equivalent welfare plans in which an employee participates except to the extent that such a credit would cause duplication of benefits.

Section 7.8 Taxes. The Selling Entities shall prepare and file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation relating to Transfer Taxes that they are required to file under applicable Legal Requirements and shall provide the Buyer with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such Tax Returns (and in any event not fewer than three Business Days) prior to the filing thereof. The Buyer shall bear and pay any Transfer Taxes. The Buyer and the Selling Entities shall cooperate with each other to the extent legally permitted to minimize any such Transfer Taxes. The Buyer shall, within 30 days after the Closing, provide the Seller with an allocation of the sum of the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities (and any adjustments thereof) among the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date (the “Allocation”) in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Except as otherwise required by applicable Legal Requirements, the Buyer and the Seller shall report for all Tax purposes all transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the

-27-

Allocation, if any, and shall not take any position inconsistent therewith in any Tax Return, in any refund claim, in any litigation or otherwise. Real property, personal property and other ad valorem Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets that are due after the Closing Date shall be paid by the Buyer.

Section 7.9 Submission for Bankruptcy Court Approval. (a) Each of the Selling Entities shall file voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code no later than April 1, 2009. On the Petition Date (or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable but in no event later than April 3, 2009), the Selling Entities shall file a motion or motions (the “Motions”) and supporting papers seeking: (i) the entry of the Bidding Procedures Order (including the scheduling of the Auction); (ii) the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of this Agreement, each of the Selling Entity’s performance under this Agreement and the assumption and the assignment of the Assumed Agreements pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code; and (iii) the entry of an order in the form of Exhibit C approving this Agreement, which order shall be a Final Order in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Buyer and not subject to Rules 6004(h) and 6006(d) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Sale Order”). The Buyer shall take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Seller to assist the Seller in obtaining a finding by the Bankruptcy Court that the Buyer is deemed to have purchased the Purchased Assets in good faith pursuant to section 363(m) of the Bankruptcy Code and that it has the necessary qualifications to show adequate assurance of future performance with respect to the Assumed Agreements as required by section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Bidding Procedures Order and the Sale Order may, at the Seller’s option, be sought under one combined set of motion papers, which shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Buyer. All parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to have the Bankruptcy Court enter the Bidding Procedures Order within three Business Days following the filing of the motion therefor, to have the Sale Hearing no later than 30 days after the Petition Date and to have the Sale Order entered no later than 32 days after the Petition Date. The Selling Entities shall give notice under the Bankruptcy Code of the request for the relief specified in the Motions to any Person as to whom any Selling Entity has received notice that such Person has or may have, and to any Person who to the Seller’s Knowledge, might assert, a claim against or with respect to, or interest in, any of the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities, and other appropriate notice, including such additional notice as the Bankruptcy Court shall direct or as the Buyer may reasonably request, and provide appropriate opportunity for hearing, to all parties entitled thereto, of all motions, orders, hearings, or other proceedings relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Selling Entities shall be responsible for making all appropriate filings relating thereto with the Bankruptcy Court, which filings shall be submitted, to the extent practicable, to the Buyer at least two Business Days prior to their filing with the Bankruptcy Court for the Buyer’s prior review and approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) A list of the Assumed Agreements shall be filed as an exhibit to the Sale Motion, or, if required by the Bankruptcy Court, a motion to assume and assign the Assumed Agreements, and otherwise shall be described in sufficient detail to provide adequate notice to the non-debtor party to such Contracts. Upon revision of Schedule 2.1(e) by the Buyer, the Seller shall add any Assumed Agreements to the exhibit or remove Assumed Agreements from the exhibit, as applicable. Such exhibit shall set forth the amounts necessary to cure defaults under each of such Assumed Agreements as reasonably determined in good faith by the Seller. In cases in which the Seller is unable to establish that a default exists, the relevant cure amount shall be set at $0.00.

(c) Each Selling Entity and the Buyer shall consult with one another regarding pleadings which any of them intends to file with, or positions any of them intends to take before, the Bankruptcy Court in connection with, or which might reasonably affect the Bankruptcy Court’s approval of, the Bidding Procedures Order or the Sale Order. Each Selling Entity shall promptly provide the Buyer and its counsel with copies of all notices, filings and orders of the Bankruptcy Court (and other courts) that such Selling Entity has in its possession (or receives) pertaining to the motion for approval of the Bidding Procedures Order, the Sale Order or any other order related to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, but only to the extent such papers are not publicly available on the Bankruptcy Court’s docket.

-28-

(d) If the Bidding Procedures Order, the Sale Order or any other orders of the Bankruptcy Court relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be appealed by any Person (or if any petition for certiorari or motion for reconsideration, amendment, clarification, modification, vacation, stay, rehearing or reargument shall be filed with respect to the Bidding Procedures Order, Sale Order or other such order), subject to rights otherwise arising from this Agreement, the Selling Entities and the Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute such appeal, petition or motion and obtain an expedited resolution of any such appeal, petition or motion.

Section 7.10 Overbid Procedures. The Buyer and the Selling Entities acknowledge that the Selling Entities must take reasonable steps to demonstrate that they have sought to obtain the highest or otherwise best price for the Purchased Assets, including giving notice thereof to the creditors of the Selling Entities and other interested parties, providing information about the Selling Entities’ business to prospective bidders (subject to confidentiality agreements no less restrictive than the Confidentiality Agreement), entertaining higher and better offers from such prospective bidders, and, in the event that additional qualified prospective bidders desire to bid for the Purchased Assets, conducting an auction (the “Auction”). The Selling Entities and the Buyer agree, and the motion to approve the Bidding Procedures Order shall reflect the fact that the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 7.10 and Section 7.11, are reasonable, were a material inducement to the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and are designed to achieve the highest and best price for the Purchased Assets.

Section 7.11 Break-Up Fee and Expense Reimbursement. If: (a) (i) the Buyer is not identified as the successful bidder following completion of the actions contemplated by Section 7.10; (ii) at the time the successful bidder is identified, the Buyer is not in material breach of any material provision of this Agreement; (iii) the Buyer has not terminated this Agreement (other than pursuant to Sections 9.1(c) or 9.1(e)); and (iv) a sale of all or a material part of the Purchased Assets to a party or parties (collectively, a “Third-Party”) other than the Buyer (the “Third-Party Sale”) is consummated; provided, however, that a stand-alone reorganization, including a reorganization under which the Seller’s secured lenders receive substantially all the equity and/or debt in the reorganized Sellers, shall not constitute a Third-Party Sale; (b) (i) a Third-Party Sale is consummated (whether in the Chapter 11 Case or, if converted into a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, such Chapter 7 case) within six months of the approval of the Bidding Procedures Order; (ii) at the time of the Third-Party Sale, the Buyer is not in material breach of any material provision of this Agreement; and (iii) the Buyer has not terminated this Agreement (other than pursuant to Sections 9.1(c) or 9.1(e) or (c) one or more Selling Entities files a Chapter 11 plan contemplating the sale or retention of a material portion of the Purchased Assets by the Selling Entities in a manner substantially inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement in circumstances in which the Seller’s secured lenders receive more than 50% of the equity and/or debt in the reorganized Seller or any other successor entity (an “Inconsistent Plan”), then the Buyer will be entitled to receive, without further order of the Bankruptcy Court, from the Seller, or, in the event of a Third-Party Sale, out of the deposit from such Third-Party and the proceeds of the consummated sale: (A) a “break-up fee” of $1,000,000 (“Break-Up Fee”); plus (B) the amount of all of the Buyer’s documented out-of-pocket expenses (including expenses of outside counsel, accountants and financial advisers) incurred since December 7, 2007 in connection with its evaluation, consideration and negotiation of a possible transaction with the Buyer and in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, in any case up to $1,000,000 (the “Expense Reimbursement”, together with the Break-Up Fee, the “Termination Payment”). Such Termination Payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available U.S. funds to an account designated by the Buyer from the Seller or, in the event of a Third-Party Sale, from the Seller, the deposit from such Third-Party and the proceeds of a Third-Party Sale, with such payment to be made on or before the first Business Day after the consummation of the Third-Party Sale or the filing of an Inconsistent Plan, as applicable. In the event of a Third Party Sale in which one or more of the secured lenders (or their agents or affiliates) of the Selling Entities is the acquiring party, if the cash proceeds from such sale and other funds of the Selling Entities will be insufficient to pay the Termination Payment, such secured lender shall be required to pay any portion of the Termination Payment that cannot be paid in cash from the proceeds of such sale or such other funds to the Buyer (after taking into account the Carve-Out (as defined in the cash collateral order entered in the Chapter 11 Case) as a condition precedent to the closing of such Third Party Sale (it being understood that the remainder of the Termination Payment will be paid from the proceeds of such sale or other funds after taking into account the Carve-Out). The claim of the Buyer in respect of the Termination Payment

-29-

shall constitute a super-priority administrative expense claim, senior to all other administrative expense claims of the Selling Entities, as administrative expenses under sections 503 and 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code in the Chapter 11 Case, senior to all administrative expense claims of the Selling Entities secured lenders, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Bankruptcy Court orders approving the Selling Entities use of cash collateral, paid, in cash, from the deposit and/or the sale proceeds generated by the sale or sales of the Purchased Assets paid by a Third-Party Sale and paid to the Buyer, in cash, prior to delivery of any sale proceeds to any of the secured lenders. As part of any motion seeking entry of the Bidding Procedures Order, the Seller shall seek approval by the Bankruptcy Court of this Section 7.11 (and that the substance of this Section 7.11 be in the Bid Procedures Order), which may be approved by the Bankruptcy Court separately from the remainder of this Agreement.

Section 7.12 Transfer of Purchased Assets.

(a) The Selling Entities and the Buyer agree that unless otherwise requested by the Buyer in writing, any of the Purchased Assets (including software) that can be transmitted to the Buyer electronically will be so delivered to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate promptly following the Closing and will not be delivered to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate on any tangible medium. Promptly following any electronic transmission, the Selling Entities shall execute and deliver to the Buyer a certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to the Buyer and containing, at a minimum, the following information: (i) the date of transmission; (ii) the time the transmission was commenced and concluded; (iii) the name of the individual who made the transmission; (iv) the signature of such individual; and (v) a general description of the nature of the items transmitted sufficient to distinguish the transmission from other transmissions.

(b) The Buyer will make all necessary arrangements for the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate to take possession of the Purchased Assets, and, at the Buyer’s expense, to transfer same to a location operated by the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate, as promptly as practicable following the Closing.

(c) After the Closing, if any Selling Entity receives any payment, refund or other amount which is a Purchased Asset or which is otherwise properly due and owing to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate, such Selling Entity shall promptly remit, or shall cause to be remitted, such amount to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate. The Selling Entities shall promptly endorse and deliver to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate any notes, checks, negotiable instruments or other documents which are Purchased Assets or otherwise properly due and owing to the Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate, and the Buyer shall have the right and authority to endorse, without recourse, the name of the Selling Entities on any such instrument or document.

Section 7.13 Resignations, Minute Books and Stock Certificates. Except to the extent otherwise determined by the Buyer and communicated to the Seller prior to the Closing, the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts: (a) to deliver at the Closing written resignations of all officers and directors of the Acquired Subsidiaries (and subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries), effective as of the Closing, and the minute books of all Acquired Subsidiaries (and the subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries); and (b) to facilitate the transfer of director qualifying shares and similar shares of the Acquired Subsidiaries (and subsidiaries of the Acquired Subsidiaries) that are not owned by either a Selling Entity or Acquired Subsidiary to a person designated by Buyer, effective as of the Closing.

Section 7.14 Post-Closing Operation of the Seller; Name Changes. From and after the Closing, the Seller Entities will cease operations that are in any manner competitive with the business being transferred to the Buyer hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall preclude the Selling Entities from conducting any non-competitive business activities, selling Excluded Assets or enforcing their rights and performing their obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Promptly after the Closing, the Selling Entities shall take all necessary action to change their names to names bearing no resemblance to Silicon Graphics, SGI or any variation thereof and will file such documents as are necessary to reflect such name change in the states in which the Seller Entities are incorporated and the other jurisdictions where the Selling Entities are qualified to do business as a foreign entity and filing

-30-

an application with and obtaining an order from the Bankruptcy Court requiring a change to the caption of all pleadings and documents to be filed in the Chapter 11 Case from the names of the Seller and the Selling Entities to names bearing no resemblance to Silicon Graphics, SGI or any variation thereof. The Selling Entities agree to promptly notify the Buyer of such name changes and the name chosen by the Selling Entities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller may refer to Silicon Graphics, SGI and variations thereof as a former name for legal and noticing purposes in the Chapter 11 Case and other legal documents.
