Section 2.9Adjustment to Base Purchase Price.

(a)Not earlier than fifteen (15) and not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Purchaser a written statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) Seller’s good-faith estimate of Closing Date Net Working Capital (such estimate, the “Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital”), (ii) Seller’s calculation of the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount, and (iii) on the basis of the foregoing, a calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price, in each case, together with reasonable supporting detail with respect to the calculation of all such amounts. The Estimated Closing Statement shall set forth the calculations

of such amounts in a manner consistent with Section 2.9(g). Seller shall provide Purchaser with a reasonable opportunity to review and to propose comments to the Estimated Closing Statement. Within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the Estimated Closing Statement, if Purchaser has any objections to Seller’s calculation of the Estimated Purchase Price, Purchaser may provide a written statement of its objections to Seller, which Seller shall consider in good faith (it being understood that Seller will be able to accept or reject any such comments in its sole discretion and the Parties will be required to consummate the Closing based on the Estimated Closing Statement, as amended as applicable to reflect any of Purchaser’s comments accepted by Seller in its sole discretion).

(b)As promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days, after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and will provide to Seller, a written statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), setting forth in reasonable detail, with reasonable supporting documentation, Purchaser’s good faith calculation of (A) Closing Date Net Working Capital and (B) Closing Date Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount, and on the basis of the foregoing, its calculation of the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Post-Closing Statement be permitted to be delivered on more than one occasion or amended subsequent to the initial submission.

(c)Within forty-five (45) days following receipt by Seller of the Post-Closing Statement, Seller shall deliver written notice to Purchaser of any good faith dispute Seller has with respect to the calculation, preparation or content of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Dispute Notice”); provided that if Seller does not deliver any Dispute Notice to Purchaser within such forty-five (45)-day period, the Post-Closing Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto. The Dispute Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail (i) any item on the Post-Closing Statement that Seller disputes and (ii) Seller’s position on the appropriate amount of such item; provided that Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts on the Post-Closing Statement. Upon receipt by Purchaser of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute set forth therein. If Purchaser and Seller fail to resolve any such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), then Purchaser and Seller jointly shall engage, within ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period, a nationally recognized major accounting firm selected jointly by Seller and Purchaser (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve any such dispute; provided that, if Seller and Purchaser are unable to agree on the Independent Accounting Firm, then each of Seller and Purchaser shall select a nationally recognized major accounting firm, and the two (2) firms will mutually select a third (3rd) nationally recognized major accounting firm to serve as the Independent Accounting Firm. As promptly as practicable, and in any event not more than fifteen (15) days following the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm, Purchaser and Seller shall each prepare and submit a presentation detailing each Party’s complete statement of proposed resolution of each issue still in dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm. Purchaser and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to, as soon as practicable after the submission of the presentations described in the immediately preceding sentence and in any event not more than twenty (20) days following such presentations, make a final determination, binding on the Parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice. The Independent Accounting Firm shall make such final determination based solely on the written submissions of Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, regarding the appropriate amount of each of the line items that remain in dispute as indicated in the Dispute Notice which Seller and Purchaser have submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. With respect to each disputed line item, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Seller or Purchaser, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, in their respective presentations to the Independent Accounting Firm described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the scope of the disputes to be resolved by the

Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to the disputed line items submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm by Purchaser and Seller and whether any disputed determinations of the Closing Date Net Working Capital were properly calculated in accordance with the Transaction Accounting Principles and this Agreement. Absent fraud or manifest error, all determinations made by the Independent Accounting Firm, and the Post-Closing Statement, as modified by the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto. The Parties hereto agree that any adjustment as determined pursuant to this Section 2.9(c) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, except as otherwise required by Law.

(d)All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by Seller and Purchaser in proportion to the allocation of the dollar value of the amounts in dispute between Seller and Purchaser resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, such that the Party prevailing on the greatest dollar value of such disputes pays the lesser proportion of the fees. For example, should the items in dispute total one thousand Dollars ($1,000) and the Independent Accounting Firm awards six hundred Dollars ($600) in favor of Seller’s position, then 60% of the costs of its review would be borne by Purchaser and 40% of the costs of its review would be borne by Seller.

(e)For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.9, each of Seller and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with and make available to each other and their respective Representatives all information, records, data and working papers, in each case to the extent relevant to the preparation of the Estimated Closing Statement or the Post-Closing Statement, as applicable, and shall permit reasonable access during normal working hours to its facilities and personnel that were involved in the preparation of the Estimated Closing Statement or the Post-Closing Statement, as applicable, as may be reasonably required in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Post-Closing Statement and the resolution of any disputes thereunder.

(f)If the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9 exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such excess to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Seller to Purchaser; and if the Purchase Price as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9 is less than the Estimated Purchase Price, then Seller shall pay or cause to be paid an amount in cash equal to such difference to Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Purchaser to Seller. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.9(f) shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9.

(g)Each of the Estimated Closing Statement (including the Estimated Purchase Price and components thereof) and the Post-Closing Statement (including the Purchase Price and components thereof) shall be prepared and calculated in accordance with the definitions of such terms contained in the Agreement and the Transaction Accounting Principles consistently applied. Neither the calculations nor the purchase price adjustment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.9 is intended to be used to adjust for errors or omissions, under GAAP or otherwise, that may be found with respect to the Business Financial Information or the Closing Date Net Working Capital Target. No event, act, change in circumstance or similar development, including any market or business development or change in GAAP or applicable Law, arising or occurring after the Closing, shall be taken into consideration in the calculations to be made pursuant to this Section 2.9.

(h)Purchaser agrees that, following the Closing through the date that the Post-Closing Statement becomes final, conclusive and binding in accordance with this Section 2.9, it

will not take or permit to be taken any actions with respect to any accounting books, records, policies or procedures that would impede or delay, or reasonably be expected to impede or delay, the final determination of the Purchase Price or the preparation of any Dispute Notice, in each case, in the manner and utilizing the methods provided by this Agreement.

Section 2.10Purchase Price Allocation. Seller and Purchaser agree to allocate and, as applicable, to cause their relevant Affiliates to allocate, the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes among the Purchased Assets. No later than sixty (60) days after the date on which the Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a proposed allocation of the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes as of the Closing Date determined in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Seller’s Allocation”). If Purchaser disagrees with Seller’s Allocation, Purchaser may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Seller’s Allocation, deliver a written notice (the “Purchaser’s Allocation Notice”) to Seller to such effect, specifying those items as to which Purchaser disagrees and setting forth Purchaser’s proposed allocation. If the Purchaser’s Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Seller and Purchaser shall, during the twenty (20) days following such delivery, use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the allocation of the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9) and any other items that are treated as additional consideration for Tax purposes. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach such agreement, the Parties shall be entitled to use separate allocations of the Purchase Price. The allocation, as prepared by Seller if no Purchaser’s Allocation Notice has been given or as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between Seller and Purchaser, if any (the “Allocation”), shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties hereto. Seller and Purchaser shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, take any position inconsistent with the Allocation on any Tax Return or in any Tax Proceeding, in each case, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign Law).

Section 2.11Non-Assignment; Consents.

(a)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to sell, assign, transfer or convey any Purchased Asset if an attempted sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance thereof would be prohibited by Law or would, without the approval, authorization or consent of, filing with, notification to, or granting or issuance of any license, order, waiver or permit by, any third party or Governmental Entity (collectively, “Approvals” and such assets, collectively, the “Non-Assignable Assets”), (i) constitute a breach or other contravention thereof, or result in any acceleration of obligations of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or the exercise of rights or remedies by any counterparty, including rights of recapture or termination (including in the case of any request for approval or consent, in which case no such request shall be made without the agreement of the Parties), (ii) be ineffective, void or voidable, or (iii) adversely affect in any material respect the rights thereunder of Seller, any of its Subsidiaries, Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates, unless and until such Approval is obtained, it being understood that the obtainment of any Approval solely by virtue of this Section 2.11(a) is not a condition to the Closing and that, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article VII, the Closing shall proceed in accordance with this Agreement, and Purchaser shall pay the full Estimated Purchase Price at the Closing without the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer or delivery of such Non-Assignable Assets.

(b)Prior to the Closing and continuing for a period of one (1) year following the Closing Date, Seller and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, any Approval (other than Regulatory Approvals, which shall be governed

by Section 5.1) (collectively, the “Non-Regulatory Approvals”) required to sell, assign or transfer the Non-Assignable Assets and to obtain the unconditional release of Seller and its Affiliates so that Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be solely responsible for the related Liabilities (including the Assumed Liabilities) after Closing (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, obtaining such unconditional release shall not be part of obtaining the Approval for any such Non-Assignable Asset). If any such Approval is not obtained prior to Closing, until the earliest of (i) such time as such Approval or Approvals are obtained, or such Approval or Approvals have been denied in writing, (ii) one (1) year following the Closing Date and (iii) with respect to a Non-Assignable Asset that is a Contract, the expiration of the term of such Contract in accordance with its current term or the execution of a replacement Contract following the Closing by Purchaser or its Affiliate, then Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser to the extent permitted by such Contract and applicable Law, in any arrangement reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Seller intended to both (x) provide Purchaser, to the fullest extent practicable, the claims, rights and benefits of any such Purchased Assets and (y) cause Purchaser to assume and bear all costs and Liabilities thereunder from and after the Closing in accordance with this Agreement (including by means of any subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing arrangement). In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser will promptly pay, perform or discharge when due any Liability arising thereunder after the Closing Date.

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of Seller, any of its Subsidiaries nor Purchaser shall have any obligation under this Agreement or otherwise to pay any consent, approval or waiver “fee,” discount, rebate or any money or other consideration beyond administrative costs to any Person, agree to any modification or amendment of or any concession to any counterparty to any Contract, or to initiate any Proceeding against any Person in order to obtain any Non-Regulatory Approvals.

(d)For so long as the Seller Entities hold any Purchased Assets and provide Purchaser any claims, rights and benefits of any such Purchased Asset pursuant to an arrangement described in Section 2.11(a) or Section 2.11(b), Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller, the other Seller Entities and their respective Affiliates from and against all losses, liabilities, damages and costs incurred or asserted as a result of Seller’s or any such Affiliate’s or their respective Affiliate’s post-Closing direct or indirect ownership, management or operation of any such Purchased Assets (only to the extent that such losses, liabilities, damages and costs relate to the CGS Business). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any transfer or assignment to Purchaser of any Purchased Asset that shall require an Approval as described above in this Section 2.11 shall be made subject to such Approval being obtained.

Section 2.12Bulk Sales Waiver. Purchaser and its Affiliates acknowledge that the Seller Entities have not taken, and do not intend to take, any actions required to comply with any applicable “bulk transfer law” or “bulk sales law” (or any similar Law) of any jurisdiction. Purchaser and its Affiliates hereby waive compliance by the Seller Entities with the provisions of any “bulk transfer law” or “bulk sales law” (or any similar Law) of any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 2.13Wrong Pocket Assets and Liabilities. Upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, if, following the Closing (but subject to Section 2.11) (i) any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability remained with Seller, any other Seller Entity or any other Subsidiary of Seller, Seller, such Seller Entity or such Subsidiary (as the case may be) shall transfer without effect on the Purchase Price, such Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability as soon as reasonably practicable to Purchaser (or Purchaser’s designees) and Purchaser (or Purchaser’s designees, as the case may be) shall accept any such Purchased Asset and assume any such Assumed Liability, and (ii) any asset that is not a Purchased Asset or Liability that is not an Assumed Liability transferred to Purchaser in deviation from the terms

and conditions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Purchaser or its designees, as applicable, shall transfer without effect on the Purchase Price, such asset or Liability as soon as reasonably practicable to Seller or the applicable Seller Entity as directed by Seller, and Seller or the applicable Seller Entity shall accept any such asset and assume any such Liability. Prior to any such transfer, the Person receiving or possessing such Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, or other asset or Liability, as the case may be, shall hold such asset or Liability in trust for or on behalf of the Person to which it shall be transferred pursuant to this Section 2.13.

Section 2.14Foreign Transfer and Acquisition Agreements. The assignment, transfer and conveyance of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities in non-U.S. jurisdictions, if required by applicable Law, will be effected pursuant to an individual short-form assignment and assumption agreement (each, a “Foreign Assignment and Assumption Agreement”) on a country-by-country basis in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C hereto, with such changes as are reasonably agreed by the Parties based on the requirements of applicable foreign Law; provided in each case that the Foreign Assignment and Assumption Agreements shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Purchased Assets and the legal assumption of the applicable Assumed Liabilities and shall not have any effect on the value being received by Purchaser or given by Seller, including the allocation of assets and Liabilities as between them, all of which shall be determined in accordance with this Agreement. No such Foreign Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall in any way modify, amend or constitute a waiver of any provision of this Agreement or include any additional representations or warranties, covenants or agreements except to the extent required by the Law of the applicable jurisdiction or to the extent required to effectuate the assignment, transfer or conveyance of the applicable Purchased Asset or the assumption of the applicable Assumed Liability in such jurisdiction, and, in the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and a Foreign Assignment and Assumption Agreement, this Agreement will control to the extent permissible under applicable Law.

Except as set forth in, or qualified by any matter set forth in, the Seller Disclosure Schedules (it being agreed that the disclosure of any matter in any section in the Seller Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to have been disclosed in any other section in the Seller Disclosure Schedules to which the applicability of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure), Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows:

Except as set forth in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules (it being agreed that the disclosure of any matter in any section in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules shall be deemed to have been disclosed in any other section in the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules to which the applicability of such disclosure is reasonably apparent on face of such disclosure), Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to Seller as follows:

Section 4.1Organization, Standing and Power. Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, has all necessary organizational power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and is licensed or qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the properties or assets owned or leased by it or the operation of its business makes such licensing or qualification necessary, except as would not, or would not reasonably be expected to, impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to (a) perform its obligations under this Agreement or (b) consummate the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby (each of clause (a) and clause (b), a “Purchaser Material Adverse Effect”).

Section 4.2Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. Purchaser has all necessary power and authority to execute this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party and to consummate the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party and the consummation by Purchaser of the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action of Purchaser. Purchaser has duly executed and delivered this Agreement, and will duly execute and deliver the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party, and assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Seller, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party will constitute its valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.

Section 4.3No Conflicts; Consents. The execution and delivery by Purchaser of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party does not, and the consummation by Purchaser of the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and compliance by Purchaser with the terms hereof and thereof will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, require any consent or other action by an Person, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation or any loss of any benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of the properties or assets of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries under, any provision of (a) the Organizational Documents of Purchaser, (b) any Judgment or Law applicable to Purchaser or its Subsidiaries, or the properties or assets of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries or (c) any Contract pursuant to which Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, except, with respect to the foregoing clauses (b) and (c), for any such items that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.4Financial Ability to Perform.

(a)Assuming (i) the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2 and (ii) the Committed Financing is funded in accordance with the terms and conditions of the commitment letter dated the date hereof (together with all annexes, schedules and exhibits thereto, the “Commitment Letter”), by and among the Financing Sources party thereto and Purchaser, upon funding of the Committed Financing, Purchaser will have on the Closing Date

available cash on hand or other immediately available funds sufficient to fund all of the amounts required to be paid by Purchaser on the Closing Date for the consummation of the Transaction, including payment of the Estimated Purchase Price, any payment due to Seller pursuant to Section 2.9(f), and all fees, expenses and other amounts payable by Purchaser on the Closing Date related to the Transaction (collectively, the “Payment Amounts”). The debt financing committed pursuant to the Commitment Letter is collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “ Committed Financing.” Purchaser has delivered to Seller a true, correct, and complete fully executed copy of the Commitment Letter as of the date hereof.

Assuming satisfaction of the conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, as of the date hereof, Purchaser does not have any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis all conditions to be satisfied by it in the Commitment Letter on or prior to the Closing Date or that the Committed Financing will not be available to Purchaser on the Closing Date, nor does Purchaser have knowledge that any of the Financing Sources will not perform its obligations thereunder. There are no side letters, understandings or other agreements, contracts or arrangements of any kind relating to the Commitment Letter that could affect the availability, conditionality, enforceability, termination or amount of the Committed Financing.

(c)The Commitment Letter constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of Purchaser and, to the knowledge of Purchaser, the other parties thereto, and is in full force and effect subject to the Enforceability Exceptions. Assuming satisfaction of the conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.2, to the knowledge of Purchaser, as of the date hereof, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time, or both, constitutes, or would reasonably be expected to constitute, a default, breach or a failure to satisfy a condition precedent on the part of Purchaser under the terms and conditions of the Commitment Letter. Purchaser or an Affiliate thereof on its behalf has paid in full any and all commitment fees and other fees required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letter on or before the date of this Agreement, and will pay in full any such amounts due after the date of this Agreement as and when due. The Commitment Letter has not been materially modified, amended or altered as of the date hereof; the Commitment Letter will not be amended, modified or altered at any time through the Closing, except as permitted by Section 5.13; and, as of the date hereof, the commitments under the Commitment Letter have not been terminated, reduced, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect, and, to the knowledge of Purchaser, no termination, reduction (other than as expressly contemplated by the Commitment Letter), withdrawal or rescission thereof is contemplated.

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

Section 4.5Proceedings. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no Proceedings pending, or, to the Knowledge of Purchaser, threatened in writing, against Purchaser or any of its Affiliates that would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect.

based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for which Seller or any of its Affiliates would have any Liability.

Section 4.7Investigation. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Seller has made available to Purchaser and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives the opportunity to ask questions of the officers and management of Seller and the CGS Business and been provided with access to the documents, information and records of or with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities and the CGS Business, in each case, satisfactory to Purchaser, and Purchaser confirms that it has made an independent investigation, analysis and evaluation of the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities and the CGS Business.

Section 4.8Interests in Competitors. Neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates owns, directly or indirectly, any Person or business division that conducts any line of business involving the issuance of numerical identifiers for securities or derives more than 25% of its revenues from data licensing or portfolio management related thereto.

Section 4.9Solvency. Immediately after giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction, Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be Solvent. For purposes of this Section 4.8, “Solvent” means, with respect to Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, that:

(a)the fair saleable value (determined on a going concern basis) of the assets of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be greater than the total amount of the liabilities (including all liabilities, whether or not reflected in a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP, and whether direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, secured or unsecured, disputed or undisputed) of Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;

(b)Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be able to pay their debts and obligations in the ordinary course of business as they become due; and

Section 5.1Efforts.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Parties shall cooperate and use their best 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 the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to cause the conditions to each other’s obligation to close the Transaction as set forth in Article VII to be satisfied, including all actions and all things necessary for it (i) to comply promptly with all legal requirements which may be imposed on it with respect to this Agreement and the Transaction (which actions shall include furnishing all information required by applicable Law in connection with approvals of or filings with any Governmental Entity); (ii) to satisfy as promptly as practicable all the conditions precedent to the obligations of each such Party hereto; and (iii) to obtain any Approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity required to be obtained or made by the Parties in connection with the acquisition of the Purchased Assets or the taking of any action contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with the foregoing.

(b)In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Parties shall use their best efforts to (i) make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable following the date hereof and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days following the date hereof; and (ii) file applications (or drafts thereof where applicable) with any applicable Governmental Entity whose Approval is required in connection with the consummation of the Transaction as promptly as practicable following the date hereof and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days following the date hereof. The Parties shall cooperate and use their best efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable any Regulatory Approvals required for the Closing, to respond to any requests for information from a Governmental Entity, and to contest and resist any Proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that restricts, prevents or prohibits the consummation of the Transaction. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties shall provide each other copies of all correspondence, filings or communications (or memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between such Party or its Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement or the Transaction. The Parties shall notify and keep each other advised as to (i) any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding the Transaction and (ii) any Proceeding pending and known to such Party or, to its Knowledge, threatened, which challenges the Transaction.

(d)Purchaser will not take, or cause to be taken by any of its Affiliates, any actions or do, or cause to be done by any of its Affiliates, any things that would be reasonably likely to delay the obtaining of the Regulatory Approvals required for the Closing or to cause any Governmental Entity to object to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document including acquiring or agreeing to acquire any assets or businesses engaged in whole or in part in a line of business similar or related to the CGS Business, and agrees not to knowingly take or cause to be taken any such actions with respect to the Atlantic Closing or the Merger Agreement, as applicable.

(e)If staff of the EC notifies Seller or Pacific that this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents is not an acceptable manner of divesting the Purchased Assets and its Approval is being withheld pending modification of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, as applicable, subject to Section 5.1(j), Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate in good faith to amend this Agreement to reflect any reasonable changes requested by the EC in a manner that, to the fullest extent possible, preserves the economic

benefits intended to be obtained by the Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(f)Subject to applicable Laws, Purchaser and Seller shall, upon request by the other, furnish Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, with all information concerning itself, its business and operations, its Affiliates, directors, officers or equityholders, as applicable, and such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in connection with any statement, filing, notice or application made (or to be made) by or on behalf of Purchaser, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates to any Governmental Entity in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the performance of each Party’s respective obligations, Seller and Purchaser may, as each determines is reasonably necessary, designate competitively sensitive material provided to the other pursuant to this Section 5.1(f) as “Outside Counsel Only”. Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to directors, officers or employees of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Seller or Purchaser, as the case may be) or its legal counsel. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.1(f), materials provided to the other Parties or their counsel may be redacted to remove references concerning the valuation of the CGS Business.

(g)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall use its best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, any and all actions and do, or cause to be done, any and all things necessary, proper or advisable to avoid, eliminate and resolve each and every impediment and obtain all Regulatory Approvals required for the Closing, as promptly as practicable, including offering to (i) sell or otherwise dispose of, or hold separate and agree to sell or otherwise dispose of specific assets or categories of assets or businesses of the CGS Business or any other assets or businesses now owned or presently or hereafter sought to be acquired by Purchaser or its Affiliates; (ii) terminate any existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations; (iii) amend or terminate such existing licenses or other intellectual property agreements and enter into such new licenses or other intellectual property agreements; (iv) take any and all actions and make any and all behavioral commitments, whether or not they limit or modify Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ rights of ownership in, or ability to conduct the business of, one or more of its or their operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers or assets, including, after the Closing, the CGS Business or any of the Purchased Assets; and (v) enter into agreements, including with the relevant Governmental Entity, giving effect to the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), in each case as promptly as practicable (but in any event prior to the Outside Date) after it is determined that such action is necessary to obtain approval for consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by any Governmental Entity. In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, keep Seller fully informed of all matters, discussions and activities relating to any of the matters described in or contemplated by clauses (i) through (v) of this Section 5.1(g).

(h)Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall require the Parties to take or agree to take any action pursuant to Section 5.1(g) with respect to its business or operations unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the Closing.

(i)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to Section 2.11 with respect to Non-Regulatory Approvals, Purchaser agrees to use best efforts to provide such security and assurances as to financial capability, resources and creditworthiness as may be reasonably requested by any Governmental Entity whose Approval is sought in connection with the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Whether or not the Transaction is consummated, Purchaser shall be responsible for all filing fees to any Governmental Entity in order to obtain any Regulatory Approvals pursuant to this Section 5.1

(which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Approvals under the Merger Agreement or otherwise required for the Atlantic Closing that are not required for the Closing hereunder).

(j)Any provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, none of Seller, the Seller Entities or any of their respective Affiliates shall under any circumstance be required to pay or commit to pay any amount or incur any obligation in favor of or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, regardless of any provision to the contrary in the underlying Contract, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any Person (other than the fees and expenses of its legal and other advisors and de minimis filing and similar fees) to obtain any Approval, including the actions set forth in this Section 5.1 or Section 2.11. Subject to Seller’s compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.1 and Section 2.11, none of Seller, the Seller Entities or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any Liability whatsoever to Purchaser arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any Approvals that may be required in connection with the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or because of the termination of any Contract as a result thereof. Purchaser acknowledges that no representation, warranty or covenant of Seller contained herein shall be breached or deemed breached solely as a result of (i) the failure to obtain any Approval, (ii) any such termination of a Contract or (iii) any Proceeding commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such Approval or any such termination.

(k)Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall impose any obligation on Seller or any other party to the Merger Agreement to take any action, or refrain from taking any action, in connection with the Merger or any other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (other than on Seller in respect of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof and thereof), and neither this Section 5.1 nor any other provision of this Agreement shall be breached or deemed breached solely as a result of any failure or delay in consummating the Atlantic Closing.

(l)The Purchaser commits to provide the resources necessary to develop a regulatory affairs function that will serve the interests of the CGS Business, including suitable budget for internal and external counsel and advisors, along with the time and attention of senior executives whose responsibilities shall include interaction with regulators and lawmakers as needed.

(ii)At or promptly following the Closing, Seller shall pay or cause to be paid, to each Transferred Business Employee who is eligible to participate in any Annual Cash Bonus Plan, subject to each such Transferred Business Employee’s continued employment with Seller or its Affiliates through the Closing Date, a prorated Annual Cash Bonus in respect of calendar year 2022 (the “2022 Cash Bonus”) under the applicable Annual Cash Bonus Plan for

the performance period in which the Closing occurs based on target achievement and prorated for the portion of the performance period elapsed under the applicable Annual Cash Bonus Plan from the beginning of such performance period through the Closing Date. Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller and its Affiliates to facilitate the payment of such 2022 Cash Bonus to the applicable Transferred Business Employees, including, if requested by Seller, by paying such amounts to the applicable Transferred Business Employees subject to applicable Tax withholding and remitting the Tax withholding and payroll Taxes to the appropriate Tax authority, provided that Seller provides Purchaser with cash equal to the amount of all applicable payments prior to payment by Purchaser.

(iii)Purchaser shall (i) assume, effective as of the Closing, each Benefit Plan providing cash incentive compensation (other than Annual Cash Bonuses) to any Transferred Business Employee and (ii) assume and bear all Liability for all cash incentive compensation payments (other than the Annual Cash Bonuses) payable to Transferred Business Employees under any Benefit Plan in respect of the performance period in which the Closing occurs, in each case, to the extent included in the calculation of Net Working Capital.

Purchaser and Seller further agree to the terms and conditions set forth on Section 5.7(n) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules.

(o)Seller Equity Awards. Seller shall retain all Liabilities in respect of all equity-based incentive compensation awards granted to Business Employees that are outstanding as of the Closing Date whether or not such awards would be settled in equity or cash (the “Outstanding Awards”), and Purchaser shall assume no Liabilities with respect to such Outstanding Awards. All Outstanding Awards shall remain outstanding and will continue to vest in accordance with the terms and conditions (including performance-based vesting requirements) of such Outstanding Awards, except that the service requirement will no longer apply to such Outstanding Awards effective as of the Closing Date (or, if later, the Transfer Date), with applicable performance goals deemed achieved at the greater of target achievement and actual performance as determined by Seller on the applicable vesting date in good faith based on actual performance. In addition, Seller and its Affiliates shall retain all other obligations related to the Outstanding Awards, including, but not limited to, all responsibility for the administration and settlement of such Outstanding Awards in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.7(o).

(p)WARN Act. Seller and its Affiliates shall provide any required notice under, and shall retain all liabilities relating to, the WARN Act and similar state, local and foreign Laws or any other similar applicable Law, with respect to the termination of employment of Business Employees prior to the Closing Date.

(q)Cooperation and Exchange of Information. Purchaser and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate in all matters reasonably necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 5.7, including exchanging information and data relating to employment and labor matters, and in obtaining any governmental approvals required hereunder, in each case, subject to the requirements of applicable Law.

(r)No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Without limiting the generality of Section 9.4, the provisions of this Section 5.7 are solely for the benefit of the Parties and no current or former employee, director or independent contractor or any other individual associated

therewith shall be regarded for any purpose as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, and nothing herein, express or implied, shall be construed (i) as an amendment to any Benefit Plan or other employee benefit plan for any purpose, (ii) to in any way limit the authority of Seller or Purchaser or (iii) to confer upon any Business Employee or legal representative or beneficiary thereof or other Person, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever under this Agreement or a right of any employee or beneficiary of such employee or other Person under an employee benefit plan that such employee or beneficiary or other Person would not otherwise have under the terms of that employee benefit plan without regard to this Agreement.

Section 5.8Names Following Closing. Except for those Marks included in the Transferred CGS Business Intellectual Property, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall use, or have the right to use, the Seller Marks or any name or mark that is confusingly similar to or embodies the Seller Marks; provided that, to the extent any Seller Marks are included or incorporated in any written materials included in the Purchased Assets, Purchaser and its Affiliates may use such materials solely in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice until the earlier of three (3) months from the Closing Date or the depletion thereof.

(a)From and after the Closing, the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities shall cease to be insured by Seller’s and its Affiliates’ respective current and historical insurance policies or programs and by any of their current and historical self-insured programs, and none of Purchaser or its Affiliates shall have any access, right, title or interest to or in any such insurance policies, programs or self-insured programs (including to all claims and rights to make claims and all rights to proceeds) to cover any Purchased Asset, Assumed Liability or any other liability arising from the operation of the CGS Business. Seller and its Affiliates may, effective at or after the Closing, amend any insurance policies and ancillary arrangements in the manner they deem appropriate to give effect to this Section 5.9(a). From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the CGS Business.

(b)Notwithstanding Section 5.9(a), with respect to events or circumstances relating to the CGS Business, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities that occurred or existed prior to the Closing that are covered by an Available Insurance Policy, after the Closing, Seller shall or shall cause its Affiliates to provide Purchaser with access to such Available Insurance Policies and, at Purchaser’s reasonable request, will take commercially reasonable actions to assist Purchaser in making claims under the Available Insurance Policies in respect of the CGS Business, the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities under the Available Insurance Policies (which claims, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be made by Seller or its applicable Subsidiary on behalf of Purchaser or the CGS Business), and Purchaser shall exclusively bear the amount of (i) any “deductibles” or net retentions associated with such claims and (ii) any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Seller or its Affiliates with respect to such claims that are not covered under the relevant Available Insurance Policies, including any increase in premiums attributable to such claims. If and to the extent that on or after the Closing Date, any of Seller or its Affiliates receives any payment in respect of any such claim relating to any Purchased Asset under the Available Insurance Policies, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, hold such payment for the benefit of Purchaser and remit such payment to Purchaser or its designee as promptly as practicable.

Section 5.10Litigation Support.

Section 5.11Payments.

(a)Seller shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, promptly pay or deliver to Purchaser (or its designated Affiliates) any monies or checks that have been sent to Seller or any of its Affiliates after the Closing Date by customers, suppliers or other contracting parties of the CGS Business to the extent that they are in respect of a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability hereunder.

(b)Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, promptly pay or deliver to Seller (or its designated Affiliates) any monies or checks that have been sent to Purchaser (including the CGS Business) after the Closing Date to the extent that they are in respect of an Excluded Asset or Retained Liability hereunder.

Section 5.12Non-Solicitation of Employees.

(a)For a period of one (1) year from the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the other Party, each Party agrees that neither it nor any of its controlled Affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, employ, hire, engage, recruit or solicit for employment or induce or attempt to induce to leave the employ of the other Party or its Affiliates any Covered Employee; provided that neither Party nor any of its controlled Affiliates shall be precluded from taking any such action with respect to any such individual (i) whose employment ceased no less than six (6) months prior to commencement of employment discussions between such Party or its controlled Affiliates and such individual, (ii) who responds to a general solicitation not specifically targeted at employees of the other Party or any of its Affiliates (including by a search firm or recruiting agency) or (iii) who initiates discussions regarding such employment without any solicitation by such Party or any of its controlled Affiliates in violation of this Agreement; provided, further, that such Party and its controlled Affiliates shall not be restricted from engaging in solicitations or advertising not targeted at any employee of the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b)For purposes of this Section 5.12, “Covered Employees” shall mean, for purposes of Seller’s obligations hereunder, any Transferred Business Employee and, for purposes of Purchaser’s obligations hereunder, any employee of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries where a Transferred Business Employee has any direct or indirect role in any such employment, hiring, engagement, recruitment or solicitation or inducement or attempt, whether by (i) identifying or introducing Purchaser or such any of its controlled Affiliates to such employee, (ii) opining on or confirming information related to such employee or (iii) directing or encouraging others to take any such actions.

Section 5.13Purchaser Financing.

(a)

(a)In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and use reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the proceeds of the Committed Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions described in the Commitment Letter on the Closing Date in an amount, when taken together with available cash on hand or other immediately available funds of Purchaser, sufficient to fund the Payment Amounts on the Closing Date, including by (i) maintaining in effect the Commitment Letter (until the termination thereof in accordance with its terms), (ii) negotiating and entering into definitive agreements with respect to the Committed Financing (the “Definitive Agreements”) consistent with the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letter (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in any related fee letter), (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all conditions within the control of Purchaser in the Commitment Letter and the Definitive Agreements and complying with its obligations thereunder and (iv) enforcing its rights under the Commitment Letter. Purchaser shall comply with its obligations, and enforce its rights, under the Commitment Letter and Definitive Agreements in a timely and diligent manner.

(b)In the event any portion of the Committed Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter becomes unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor (and such portion, when taken together with available cash on hand or other immediately available funds of Purchaser, is necessary for Purchaser to fund the Payment Amounts on the Closing Date), Purchaser shall (i) promptly notify the Seller in writing of such unavailability and the reason therefore and (ii) use reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, alternative financing for any such portion from alternative financing sources (the “Alternative Financing”) in an amount sufficient, when taken together with the available portion of the Committed Financing and available cash on hand or other immediately available funds of Purchaser, to fund the Payment Amounts on the Closing Date and which does not include any conditions to the consummation of such Alternative Financing that are less favorable to Purchaser, in the aggregate, than the conditions set forth in the Commitment Letter as of the date hereof. To the extent requested by Seller, Purchaser shall keep the Seller reasonably informed on a current basis of the status of its efforts to arrange and consummate the Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall promptly notify the Seller in writing if Purchaser becomes aware that there exists any actual or threatened in writing breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the Commitment Letter or any Definitive Agreement and a copy of any written notice or other written communication from any Financing Source received by Purchaser with respect to any actual or threatened in writing breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the Commitment Letter or any Definitive Agreement of any provision thereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, compliance by Purchaser with this Section 5.13 shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available.

(c)Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of the Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent or agree to any amendment, replacement, supplement, termination or modification to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Commitment Letter or the Definitive Agreements, if such amendment, replacement, supplement, termination, modification or waiver (i) decreases the aggregate amount of the Committed Financing (except to the extent Purchaser has arranged Alternative Financing obtained in accordance with Section 5.13(b)) below the amount necessary, when taken together with the available portion of the Committed Financing, the available portion of any Alternative Financing and available cash on hand or other immediately available funds of Purchaser, to fund

the Payment Amounts on the Closing Date, (ii) would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay or materially impede the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) materially and adversely impacts the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letter or the Definitive Agreements, or (iv) adds new (or adversely modifies any existing) conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Committed Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to make it less likely that the Committed Financing will be funded; provided, that Purchaser may amend the Commitment Letter or the Definitive Agreements to add lenders, lead and other arrangers, bookrunners, syndication and other agents or other entities who had not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement. Upon any amendment, replacement, supplement, termination, modification or waiver of the Commitment Letter, Purchaser shall provide a copy thereof to the Seller and, to the extent such amendment, replacement, supplement, termination, modification or waiver has been made in compliance with this Section 5.13(c), the term “Commitment Letter” means the applicable Commitment Letter as so amended, replacement, supplemented, terminated (if terminated in part), modified or waived. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by Purchaser with this Section 5.13(c) shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available. To the extent Purchaser obtains Alternative Financing pursuant to Section 5.13(b) or amends, replaces, supplements, terminates (in part), modifies or waives any of the Committed Financing pursuant to this Section 5.13(c), references to the “Committed Financing,” “Financing Sources” and “Commitment Letter” (and other like terms in this Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to such Alternative Financing, the commitments thereunder, the financing sources therefor and the agreements with respect thereto, or the Committed Financing as so amended, replaced, supplemented, terminated (in part), modified or waived.

(d)Prior to Closing (or the earlier termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1), subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5.13, and unless otherwise agreed by Purchaser, Seller will, at Purchaser’s cost and expense (as provided in clause (h) below) use reasonable best efforts to (and will use reasonable best efforts to cause the other Seller Entities and their Affiliates and Representatives to) cooperate with Purchaser as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser in writing in connection with Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ arrangement, syndication and obtaining of financing, including the Committed Financing and any Alternative Financing, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Financing”). Such cooperation will include Seller using reasonable best efforts to:

(iv)furnish the unaudited combined financial information of the CGS Business consisting of balance sheet accounts associated with the CGS Business as of the last day of any subsequent fiscal quarter of the CGS Business ending at least 45 days prior to the Closing Date and the related adjusted statements of operations and statement of profits and losses of the CGS Business for the fiscal quarters of the CGS Business then ended;

(v)assist with the Financing Sources’ requests for due diligence in connection with the Financing to the extent customary and reasonable;

(vi)provide reasonable assistance in the execution and preparation of the definitive agreements relating to the Financing, including to, to the extent applicable, obtain customary lien terminations and releases in respect of any Indebtedness of, or Liens (other than Permitted Liens (excluding for this purpose Permitted Liens described in clause (g) of the definition of such term)) on the assets of, the CGS Business to be repaid, discharged, released and terminated at Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

(vii)reasonably promptly update (and to cause the Seller Entities and their Affiliates and Representatives to reasonably promptly update) any information in respect of Seller and the CGS Business to be included in any document filed with the SEC so that such information does not contain, as of the time provided, any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading

(e)Nothing in this Section 5.13 shall require Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to take or permit the taking of any action that would:

(i)require the Seller or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or any of their directors, employees, officers, members, partners, managers or other Representatives to (x) deliver legal opinions or reliance letters or any certificate as to solvency in connection with the Financing or (y) deliver any other letter, agreement, document or certificate in connection with the Financing or the taking of any corporate action in connection with the Financing or adopt resolutions or consents to approve or authorize any of the foregoing that, in each case, is not contingent on, or that would be effective prior to, the occurrence of the Closing (other than customary authorization letters executed in connection with the Financing);

(ii)require Seller or any of its Affiliates to pay any commitment or other similar fee or incur any other expense, liability or other obligation prior to the Closing (except, as to expenses, for which it is entitled to reimbursement or is otherwise indemnified by or on behalf of Purchaser) or have any obligation of Seller or any of its

Affiliates under any agreement, certificate, document or instrument be effective until the Closing (other than customary authorization letters executed in connection with the Financing);

(iii)cause any Representative of Seller or any of its Affiliates to take any action that would reasonably be expected to result in such Representative incurring any personal liability;

Such deducted or withheld amounts shall be (i) timely remitted to the applicable Taxing Authority by the Payor and (ii) provided such amounts are so remitted by the Payor, treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

(c)by Seller, if any of Purchaser’s representations and warranties contained in Article IV shall fail to be true and correct or Purchaser shall have breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, and such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) and has not been cured by the earlier of (i) the date that is thirty (30) days after the date that Seller has notified Purchaser of such failure or breach and (ii) the Outside Date; provided, that Seller is not then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b);

(d)by Purchaser, if any of Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Article III shall fail to be true and correct or Seller shall have breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, and such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) and has not been cured by the earlier of (i) the date that is thirty (30) days after the date that Purchaser has notified Seller of such failure or breach and (ii) the Outside Date; provided that Purchaser is not then in breach of any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that such failure or breach would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b);

The right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to perform in any material respect any material covenant or obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date;

(f)by Seller or by Purchaser, if a permanent injunction or other permanent Judgment issued by a court of competent jurisdiction shall have become final and nonappealable,

If this Agreement is terminated and the Transaction is abandoned as described in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force and effect, except for the provisions of Section 5.3, this Section 8.2, and Article IX. Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall be deemed to release any Party from any Liability for fraud or willful and material breach by such Party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.3Notice of Termination. In the event of termination by Seller or Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.1, written notice of such termination shall be given by the terminating Party to the other Party to this Agreement.

Section 9.1Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and thereto, and the Confidentiality Agreement, along with the Seller Disclosure Schedules and Purchaser Disclosure Schedules, constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter. Neither Party hereto shall be liable or bound to the other Party in any manner by any representations, warranties or covenants relating to such subject matter except as specifically set forth herein and therein.

Section 9.2Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights and obligations hereunder may be assigned or transferred by either Party hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided that each Party may assign its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to its Affiliates; provided, further, that in each case such assignment shall not relieve such Party of its obligations or liabilities hereunder. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 9.2 shall be void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.3Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties hereto. By an instrument in writing, Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, may waive compliance by the other with any term or provision of this Agreement that the other Party was or is obligated to comply with or perform. Such waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with such term or

provision shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure of compliance.

Section 9.4No Third-Party Beneficiaries. None of this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto are intended to confer in or on behalf of any Person not a Party to this Agreement (and their successors and assigns) any rights, benefits, causes of action or remedies with respect to the subject matter or any provision hereof. 

Section 9.5Notices. All notices and other communications to be given to any Party hereunder shall be sufficiently given for all purposes hereunder if in writing and delivered by hand, courier or overnight delivery service, or five (5) days after being mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, with appropriate postage prepaid, or when delivered via email, and shall be deemed to have been duly delivered via email and received hereunder on the date of dispatch by the sender thereof (to the extent no “bounce back” or similar message indicating non-delivery is received with respect thereto), in each case, to the intended recipient as set forth below (or at such other email address as such Party shall designate by like notice):

Section 9.6Specific Performance. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance

with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in equity. Any Party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party acknowledges and agrees that the remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Article V (including any schedule thereto) may be inadequate and the Parties and their respective Affiliates may suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, each Party agrees that in the event of such a breach or threatened breach by the other Party, in addition to any remedies at Law, such Party will be entitled to equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

Section 9.7Governing Law and Jurisdiction

. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. In addition, each Party (a) submits to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) (and, in the case of appeals, appropriate appellate courts therefrom), in the event that any dispute (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arises out of or in connection with the evaluation (including due diligence), negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby; (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (c) agrees that it will not bring any Proceeding relating to the evaluation (including due diligence), negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Transaction or the other transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the above-named courts; and (d) agrees that it will not seek to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, that any such Proceeding (i) is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the above-named courts, (iii) should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any court other than one of the above-named courts, or (iv) that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by the above-named courts. Each Party hereto agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such Proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 9.5.

Section 9.8Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY ANY OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE EVALUATION (INCLUDING DUE DILIGENCE), NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTION OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENTS EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE ADMINISTRATION THEREOF OR THE TRANSACTION OR ANY OF THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THE EVALUATION (INCLUDING DUE DILIGENCE), NEGOTIATION,

EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTION OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY HERETO WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 9.8. NO PARTY HERETO HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 9.8 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

Section 9.9Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party hereto. Upon such a determination, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 9.10Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument, and shall become effective when one (1) or more such counterparts have been signed by each Party hereto and delivered (by e-mail, or otherwise) to the other Party. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by electronic mail in “portable document format” (“.pdf”) from or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signatures. This Agreement has been executed in the English language. If this Agreement is translated into another language, the English language text shall in any event prevail.

Section 9.11Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, whether or not the Closing takes place, and except as set forth otherwise in this Agreement, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such expense.

Section 9.12Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation; Nonassertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a)Purchaser waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Representation”), of Seller, any of its Affiliates or any shareholder, officer, member, manager, employee or director of any Seller or any of its Affiliates (any such Person, a “Designated Person”) in any matter involving this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, by any legal counsel currently representing any Seller or any of its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz (the “Current Representation”).

protection and to control such attorney-client and other applicable legal privilege or protection shall be retained by Seller and that Seller, and not Purchaser or Purchaser’s Affiliates, shall have the sole right to decide whether or not to waive any attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection. Accordingly, from and after Closing, such communications and the files of the Current Representation shall be and remain the property of Seller and not of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates or any Person acting or purporting to act on their behalf shall seek to obtain the same by any process on the grounds that the privilege and protection attaching to such communications and files belongs to Purchaser.

Section 9.13Interpretation; Absence of Presumption.

Nothing herein (including the Seller Disclosure Schedules and the Purchaser Disclosure Schedules) shall be deemed an admission by either Party hereto or any of its Affiliates, in any Proceeding, that such Party or any such Affiliate, or any third party, is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any Contract. For the purposes of this Agreement, (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa, and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires; (b) references to the terms Article, Section, paragraph, Exhibit and Schedule are references to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs, Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (c) the terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto; (d) references to “Dollars” or “$” shall mean U.S. dollars; (e) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall mean “including without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (f) the word “or” shall not be exclusive; (g) references to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form; (h) the headings contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; (i) Seller and Purchaser have each participated in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto or thereto, as applicable, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; (j) a reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (k) any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified; and (l) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.
