ARTICLE II

PURCHASE AND SALE TRANSACTIONS

Section 2.1 Purchase and Sale; Separation.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, at the Closing, the Seller shall sell, transfer, convey, assign and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from the Seller, the Purchased Shares, free and clear of all Liens other than Securities Liens, in exchange for the Initial Purchase Price.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, the Seller shall directly or indirectly effectuate the Separation pursuant to the steps attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Steps Plan”) and the agreements listed on Exhibit B that were previously provided to Buyer (collectively, the Steps Plan together with such agreements, the “Separation Documents”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, prior to the Closing,

14

in the Seller’s sole discretion, the Seller may instead pursue and enter into an Alternative Sale Transaction without Buyer’s prior written consent, provided that Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Closing shall remain subject to the condition set forth in Section 2.6(b)(iii) that the Security Services Separation shall have been consummated prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that an Alternative Sale Transaction is entered into (but has not yet closed) as of immediately prior to the Closing, the Separation shall be effected immediately prior to the Closing and the Security Service Business shall be sold by the entities that hold the Security Services Business following such Separation.

(c) The Company shall keep Buyer reasonably informed as to the status of the Separation, including providing Buyer with copies of the Separation Documents and a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. In the event the Company pursues a Third Party Security Sale prior to the Closing, the Company shall provide copies of the documents to effectuate such Third Party Security Sale to Buyer, but Buyer shall not have the right to comment for so long as such transaction constitutes an Alternative Sale Transaction. No changes or modifications may be made to the steps set forth in the Steps Plan if such changes or modifications would result in the Company or its Subsidiaries bearing incremental liability or if it would result in changes to the assets and liabilities of the Business, as compared to what such assets and liabilities would have been if the Separation had been effected in accordance with the Steps Plan, in each case, other than a de minimis amount.

Section 2.2 Purchase Price. The aggregate consideration (to be delivered in the manner described in Section 2.6(d)(F)) for the Purchased Shares shall be an aggregate amount equal to the Initial Purchase Price. The Initial Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment after the Closing pursuant to Section 2.4.

Section 2.3 Estimated Closing Statement. At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth the Seller’s good faith estimate of (a) Cash (the “Estimated Cash”), (b) Working Capital (the “Estimated Working Capital”), (c) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness (the “Estimated Indebtedness”) (d) the aggregate amount of Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”) and (e) Estimated Separation Tax Liability, and shall include reasonable supporting documentation of such calculations. Prior to the Closing, the Seller shall cooperate in good faith to answer questions and provide reasonable supporting documentation that may be reasonably requested by Buyer and its representatives in connection with their review of the Estimated Closing Statement; provided, that, if the Seller and Buyer are unable to agree as to any item set forth on the Estimated Closing Statement prior to the Closing, then the amounts set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement provided by the Seller (as modified to include any changes agreed to by the Seller and Buyer prior to the Closing) shall be binding for purposes of this Section 2.3.

Section 2.4 Post-Closing Adjustment.

(a) Within ninety (90) calendar days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail Buyer’s good faith calculation (and shall include reasonable supporting documentation of such calculations) of the following items (each a “Closing Item”): (i) Cash (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the “Final Cash”); (ii) Working Capital (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the “Final Working Capital”); (iii) the aggregate amount of Indebtedness (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the “Final Indebtedness”); (iv) the aggregate amount of Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the “Final Transaction Expenses”); (v) the Separation Tax Liability (which shall be finally determined pursuant to Section 2.9(c) and Section 2.9(d)), and (vi) the resulting calculation of the Final Purchase Price. Buyer agrees that, following the Closing through the date that the Closing Statement becomes conclusive and binding upon the Parties in accordance

15

with this Section 2.4, it will not (and will cause its Affiliates not to) take any actions with respect to any books, records, policies or procedures on which the Estimated Closing Statement is based or on which the Closing Statement is to be based that are inconsistent with or that would prevent, impede or delay (x) the determination of the amount of the Final Cash, the Final Working Capital, the Final Indebtedness or the Final Transaction Expenses or (y) the preparation of the Dispute Notice (as defined below) or the Closing Statement in the manner and utilizing the methods required by this Agreement. If the Buyer does not timely deliver a Closing Statement, the Estimated Closing Statement delivered by the Seller shall become final and binding on all the parties.

(b) The Seller shall have sixty (60) calendar days after its receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”) within which to review Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Items. If the Seller disputes any of the Closing Items, the Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of its objection to such Closing Item(s) within the Review Period, together with a description of the basis for and dollar amount of such disputed items and the Seller’s calculation thereof (to the extent possible) (a “Dispute Notice”). If the Seller does not timely deliver a Dispute Notice, the Closing Statement delivered by Buyer shall become final and binding on the parties. If the Seller timely delivers a Dispute Notice, Buyer and the Seller shall, within thirty (30) calendar days following Buyer’s receipt of such Dispute Notice (the “Resolution Period”), use commercially reasonably efforts to attempt to resolve in writing their differences with respect to the matters set forth in the Dispute Notice (and any matters with respect to the Closing Items which Buyer is disputing as a result of the matters set forth in the Dispute Notice, or any disputed matters arising out of the foregoing) and any such resolution shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, any amounts remain in dispute, then each of Buyer and the Seller shall submit all items remaining in dispute to a nationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Buyer and the Seller in writing (the “Valuation Firm”) for resolution by delivering within ten (10) calendar days after the expiration of the Resolution Period to the Valuation Firm their written position with respect to such items remaining in dispute, it being understood that in rendering such determination, the Valuation Firm shall be functioning as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The fees and expenses of the Valuation Firm pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) shall be divided between Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each such Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party. The Valuation Firm shall determine, based solely on the written submissions by the Seller and Buyer and the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and not by independent review, only those issues set forth in the Dispute Notice (and those raised by Buyer in response thereto) that remain in dispute and shall determine a value for any such disputed item which is equal to or between the final values proposed by Buyer and the Seller in their respective submissions, and the parties shall agree to customary procedures with respect to such determination by the Valuation Firm, including customary restrictions on ex parte communication with the Valuation Firm. The Parties shall request that the Valuation Firm make a decision with respect to all disputed items within thirty (30) calendar days after the submissions of the Parties, as provided above, and in any event as promptly as practicable. The final determination with respect to all dispute items shall be set forth in a written statement by the Valuation Firm delivered to the Seller and Buyer and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties except for manifest error. Buyer and the Seller shall promptly execute any reasonable engagement letter requested by the Valuation Firm and shall each reasonably cooperate with the Valuation Firm, including by providing the information, data and work papers used by each Party and its representatives (including accountants) to prepare and/or calculate the Closing Items, making its personnel and accountants available to explain any such information, data or work papers, so as to enable the Valuation Firm to make such determination as quickly and as accurately as practicable.

(c) From and after the Seller’s receipt of the Closing Statement until the Closing Items are finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, the Seller, its Affiliates and its auditors, accountants and other representatives shall be permitted reasonable access to the Company Group and their respective auditors, accountants, personnel, books and records and any other documents or information reasonably

16

requested by the Seller (including the information, data and work papers used by Buyer and/or the Company Group’s respective auditors or accountants to prepare and calculate the Closing Items), subject to the entry into customary confidentiality agreements and access letters and in each case with such access being solely for the purpose of enabling the Seller and its representatives to review the Closing Items and in a manner that does not interfere, in any material respect, with the normal business operations of the Company Group.

(d) If the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Initial Purchase Price (such excess amount, if any, the “Excess Amount”), then, within three (3) Business Days after the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, (i) Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Seller the Excess Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to Buyer and (ii) Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release to the Seller all funds in the Escrow Account, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to the Escrow Agent.

(e) If the Final Purchase Price is less than the Initial Purchase Price (such shortfall amount, if any, the “Shortfall Amount”), then, within three (3) Business Days after the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to (i) release to Buyer, solely from the funds available in the Escrow Account, an amount equal to the Shortfall Amount, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by Buyer to the Escrow Agent and (ii) release to the Seller, to the extent that any balance in the Escrow Account remains after the Escrow Agent’s payment of the Shortfall Amount to Buyer pursuant to clause (i), the amount remaining in the Escrow Account by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to the Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Seller, the Escrow Agent nor any other Person shall have any Liability for any amounts due to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.4 in excess of the funds available in the Escrow Account, and Buyer’s sole source of recourse and recovery for such amounts due shall be the funds available in the Escrow Account.

(f) If the Final Purchase Price equals the Initial Purchase Price, then, within three (3) Business Days after the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.4, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to release all funds in the Escrow Account to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to the Escrow Agent.

(g) The funds available in the Escrow Account may be distributed to Buyer and/or the Seller solely and exclusively in accordance with Section 2.4(d), Section 2.4(e), Section 2.4(f) and Section 2.9 and the terms of the Escrow Agreement, and shall not be available for any other payment to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, the Company).

(h) Any payments made pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be deemed an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price, to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

The Tax attributes as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.9(d) shall be the “Final Tax Attributes” except as otherwise expressly provided for in Section 2.9(f)(ii) or Section 2.9(f)(iv), in which case any reasonable adjustment proposed by Buyer or Seller in good faith in accordance with such sections shall subject to, and resolved in accordance with, the procedures set forth in Section 2.4(b), mutatis mutandis. Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, file its Tax Returns using the Final Tax Attributes as determined pursuant to this Section 2.9, except to the extent adjusted under Section 2.9(f)(ii) and (iv).

(e) Unless Seller has entered into a Third Party Purchase Agreement after the Closing Date and on or before October 1, 2022, there shall be no adjustments to the Separation Tax Liability, which shall be calculated consistent with the Final Separation Tax Liability, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.9(c) and Section 2.9(d), and Seller and its Affiliates shall have no further Liability or obligations to Buyer or its Affiliates under Section 2.9.

(f) If a Third Party Purchase Agreement has been signed after the Closing Date and on or before to October 1, 2022, then the Seller shall determine in good faith whether the Separation Tax Liability shall be finally calculated based on either (x) the Third Party Sale Price of such Third Party Purchase Agreement or (y) the Security Separation Value, and provide notice of such determination to Buyer within ten (10) calendar days of entering into the Third Party Purchase Agreement. Buyer shall file its Tax Returns utilizing the value selected by Seller pursuant to the preceding sentence, except to the extent there is not “substantial authority” that such value is appropriate (such selected value, the “Selected Value”).

(i) If the Security Separation Value is greater than the Third Party Sale Price and the Selected Value is the Security Separation Value, then there shall be no adjustments to the Separation Tax Liability, which shall be calculated consistent with the Final Separation Tax Liability, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.9(c) and Section 2.9(d), and Seller and its Affiliates shall have no further Liability or obligations to Buyer or its Affiliates under Section 2.9.

(ii) If the Security Separation Value is greater than the Third Party Sale Price and the Selected Value is the Third Party Sale Price, then Buyer shall pay to Seller within three (3) Business Days of Buyer receiving notice from Seller the difference between the Separation Tax Liability as determined using (x) the Third Party Sale Price for the fair market value of the Security Services Business, and with corresponding adjustments (if any) to the Final Tax Attributes to reflect the Third Party Sale Price pursuant to Section 2.9(d) (as proposed by Buyer in good faith and subject to the dispute procedures set forth in Section 2.9(d)) and (y) the Security Separation Value for the fair market value of the Security Services Business, and the Final Tax Attributes as determined pursuant to Section 2.9(d) prior to any such adjustments permitted by this Section 2.9(f)(ii) (the “Separation Taxes Refund”). After receipt of such payment, Seller shall deposit such amount into a separate account or subaccount of the Escrow Account (or an equivalent third party escrow account) (the “Tax Escrow Account”). Seller shall indemnify Buyer, the Company, the Target Subsidiaries, and its Affiliates (the “Tax Indemnified Parties”) for all Tax liabilities arising solely from an audit of the Company by a Governmental Entity with respect to the Separation; provided, that any indemnity payment to the Buyer under this Section 2.9(f)(ii) shall not exceed the amount of the Separation Taxes Refund and any interest earned in the Tax Escrow Account. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing of any demand, claim or notice of the commencement of any Tax audit or similar contest received by such party from any Governmental Entity with respect to Taxes for which Seller may be liable (“Tax Contest”) pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(ii); provided, that a

22

failure to give such notice will not affect the Buyer’s rights to indemnification under this Section 2.9(f)(ii), except to the extent that Seller is actually materially prejudiced thereby. Buyer shall have the right to control any such Tax Contest, but Seller shall have the right to participate in such Tax Contest at its own expense, and Buyer shall not be able to settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Contest without the consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The indemnity provided for pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(ii) shall survive and remain in full force and effect until the date which is 30 days after the date upon which the liability for Taxes for any claim by a Governmental Entity arising from the Separation may relate is barred by all applicable statutes of limitations (excluding any permissive extensions) (the “Survival Period”). The Tax Indemnified Parties’ sole source of recovery pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(ii) shall be the Tax Escrow Account. In the event any there is a final assessment of any Tax liabilities arising solely from an audit of the Company by a Governmental Entity with respect to the Separation during the Survival Period, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the escrow agent for the Tax Escrow Account (the “Tax Escrow Agent”) instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release the amount of such final assessment (up to the amount of funds remaining in the Tax Escrow Account) to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by Buyer to the Tax Escrow Agent. Within three (3) Business Days after the lapse of the Survival Period, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Tax Escrow Agent instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release all funds remaining in the Tax Escrow Account to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to the Tax Escrow Agent; provided, that, if any amounts in the Tax Escrow Account remain subject to a Tax Contest, such amounts shall be retained in the Tax Escrow Account until a final determination of such Tax Contest, after which Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Tax Escrow Agent instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release all such remaining funds in the Tax Escrow Account to the Seller or Buyer, as the case may be.

(iii) If the Security Separation Value is less than the Third Party Sale Price and the Selected Value is the Security Separation Value, then Seller shall indemnify the Tax Indemnified Parties for all income Tax liabilities arising solely from an audit of the Company by a Governmental Entity with respect to the Separation; provided, that any recovery under such indemnity shall be capped at (A) the difference between the Separation Tax Liability as determined using (x) the Security Separation Value for the fair market value of the Security Services Business and (y) the Third Party Sale Value for the fair market value of the Security Services Business, and (B) any interest earned in the Tax Escrow Account to which such amount described in clause (A) is deposited. Upon the earlier of (x) five Business Days after Seller’s (or its Affiliates’) receipt of cash proceeds following the closing of the Third Party Security Sale and (y) April 15, 2023, Seller shall deposit into the Tax Escrow Account an amount equal to the difference between such Separation Tax Liability amounts described in the foregoing sentence. Buyer shall promptly notify Seller in writing of any Tax Contest pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(iii); provided, that a failure to give such notice will not affect the Buyer’s rights to indemnification under this Section 2.9(f)(iii), except to the extent that Seller is actually materially prejudiced thereby. Buyer shall have the right to control any such Tax Contest, but Seller shall have the right to participate in such Tax Contest at its own expense, and Buyer shall not be able to settle, compromise and/or concede any portion of such Tax Contest without the consent of the Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The indemnity provided for this pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(iii)

23

shall survive and remain in full force and effect until the Survival Period. The Tax Indemnified Parties’ sole source of recovery pursuant to this Section 2.9(f)(iii) shall be the Tax Escrow Account. In the event any there is a final assessment of any Tax liabilities arising solely from an audit of the Company by a Governmental Entity with respect to the Separation during the Survival Period, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to Tax Escrow Agent instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release the amount of such final assessment (up to the amount of funds remaining in the Tax Escrow Account) to Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by Buyer to the Tax Escrow Agent. Within three (3) Business Days after the lapse of the Survival Period, Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Tax Escrow Agent instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release all funds in the Tax Escrow Account to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in accordance with the wire transfer instructions designated in writing by the Seller to the Tax Escrow Agent; provided, that, if any amounts in the Tax Escrow Account remain subject to a Tax Contest, such amounts shall be retained in the Tax Escrow Account until a final determination of such Tax Contest, after which Buyer and the Seller shall deliver joint written instructions to the Tax Escrow Agent instructing the Tax Escrow Agent to release all such remaining funds in the Tax Escrow Account to the Seller or Buyer, as the case may be.

(iv) If the Security Separation Value is less than the Third Party Sale Price and the Selected Value is the Third Party Sale Price, then Seller shall pay Buyer the difference between the Separation Tax Liability as determined using (x) the Third Party Sale Price for the fair market value of the Security Services Business, and with corresponding adjustments (if any) to the Final Tax Attributes to reflect the Third Party Sale Price pursuant to Section 2.9(d) (and the dispute procedures set forth therein) and (y) the Security Separation Value for the fair market value of the Security Services Business, and the Final Tax Attributes as determined pursuant to Section 2.9(d) prior to any such adjustments permitted by this Section 2.9(f)(iv) upon the earlier of (x) five Business Days after the closing of the Third Party Security Sale and (y) April 15, 2023.

(g) For the avoidance of the doubt, if a Third Party Purchase Agreement has not been signed on or prior to October 1, 2022, Seller shall have no further obligation or Liability with respect to the Separation Tax Liability under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(h) Any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be deemed an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for U.S. federal income tax purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable Law

The Company shall not take any Remedial Action without the consent of Buyer, and any Remedial Action will be conditioned upon the consummation of the Closing.

(d) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and ultimate parent entities not to, acquire or agree to acquire, by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing a portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner, any business or any corporation, partnership, association or other business organization or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets or equity interests, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation would reasonably be expected to: (i) impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or increase the risk of not obtaining, any consents of any Governmental Entity necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period; (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Entity seeking or entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise; or (iv) materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

In the event that any Continuing Employee is terminated by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company Group following the Closing) without cause on or within the twelve (12) month period immediately following the Closing, Buyer agrees that it shall cause the Company Group or its Affiliates to provide severance to such Continuing Employee as set forth on the Continuing Employee Severance Schedule attached hereto.

(b) Buyer further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause each applicable member of the Company Group to, grant each Continuing Employee with credit for any and all service with a member of the Company Group (and any predecessor thereof) earned prior to the Closing Date (i) for eligibility and vesting purposes (other than with respect to defined benefit pension plans and equity incentive awards), (ii) for purposes of vacation and paid time off accrual and severance benefit determinations under each benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or maintained by Buyer, any member of the Company Group or any of its or their Subsidiaries or Affiliates on or after the Closing Date (the “New Plans”) to the extent that such service credit will not result in a duplication of benefits or compensation for the same period of service, and (iii) for purposes of any gratuity, termination indemnity, severance or similar benefit that is payable upon termination of a Continuing Employee’s employment.

(c) In addition, Buyer shall, and shall cause the applicable members of the Company Group to take commercially reasonable actions to, (i) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions, actively-at-work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements under the New Plans to the extent waived or satisfied by a Continuing Employee under the corresponding Employee Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date and (ii) cause any deductible, co-insurance and out-of-pocket covered expenses paid on or before the Closing Date by any Continuing Employee (or covered dependent thereof) under the Employee Benefit Plans to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions with respect to the plan year which includes the initial date of participation under the New Plans following the Closing Date.

(d) If the Closing occurs prior to the date on which the Company pays annual bonuses for the 2021 performance year, then Buyer shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the Company Group to, pay a bonus to each Continuing Employee who is otherwise eligible to receive an annual bonus

50

for 2021 (the “2021 Bonus”) (including each Continuing Employee whose employment is terminated by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company Group following the Closing) without cause after the Closing and prior to the payment of such 2021 Bonus); provided, that the 2021 Bonus payments shall be (i) based on the 2021 bonus plan and targets in effect as of immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) determined reasonably and in good faith by the Company based on the plan and targets determined prior to the Closing by the Board, which such amounts shall be included in the applicable accruals included in the calculation of Final Working Capital; and (iii) paid by the applicable member of the Company Group at the same time that such annual bonuses are typically paid in the Ordinary Course of Business. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.14(d) shall not result in duplication of any severance payments or benefits provided under any employment or other agreement between any member of the Company Group and the applicable Continuing Employee or any Employee Benefit Plan.

(e) Section 280G. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit and obtain prior to the initiation of the requisite shareholder approval procedure contemplated in this Section 5.14(e), a waiver of the right to receive payments that could constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder (a “Parachute Payment Waiver”), in a form reasonably acceptable to Buyer, from each Person whom the Company and/or Buyer reasonably believes is, with respect to the Company or any Company Subsidiary, a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), as determined immediately prior to the initiation of the requisite shareholder approval procedure contemplated in this Section 5.14(e), and whom the Company believes might otherwise receive, have received, or have the right or entitlement to receive any parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code, and the Company shall have delivered each such Parachute Payment Waiver to Buyer on or before the Closing Date. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the approval by such number of shareholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code so as to render the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to any and all payments and/or benefits provided pursuant to contracts or arrangements that, in the absence of the executed Parachute Payment Waivers by the affected Persons under this Section, might otherwise result, separately or in the aggregate, in the payment of any amount and/or the provision of any benefit that would not be deductible by reason of Section 280G of the Code, with such stockholder approval to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of such Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, including Q-7 of Section 1.280G-I of such Treasury Regulations. No less than five (5) business days prior to the Closing, the Company shall forward to Buyer, and allow Buyer to review and comment upon, prior to submission to the shareholders of the Company, copies of all material documents prepared for purposes of complying with this provision and shall consider any such comments in good faith.

(f) If the Seller consummates an Alternative Sale Transaction after the Closing Date, the Seller (or an Affiliate of Seller) shall provide Buyer with a schedule of the amounts owed to certain Company Employees in connection with such Alternative Sale Transaction with respect to such Company Employee’s stock appreciation rights or a value creation bonus rights (or similar rights) (such schedule, the “Alternative Transaction Bonus Schedule”). Upon the closing of such an Alternative Sale Transaction following the Closing, the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer (or an Affiliate of Buyer) an amount equal to the payments set forth on the Alternate Transaction Bonus Schedule (such amount, the “Alternative Sale Transaction Bonus Amount”), plus an additional amount sufficient to cover the employer portion of any applicable employment or payroll Taxes payable in respect of such payments, for further payment to the persons listed thereon. Upon receipt of the Alternative Sale Transaction Bonus Amount, Buyer shall pay, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to pay, each Person set forth on the Alternate Transaction Bonus Schedule the amount set forth opposite such Person’s name through payroll, less applicable withholding. Buyer shall cooperate with the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) and cause its Affiliates to provide such cooperation and assistance (including providing information about applicable payroll tax rates of eligible employees) as the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) reasonably requests.

51

(g) Nothing contained in this Section 5.14, express or implied, (i) is intended to confer any rights (including any third-party beneficiary rights), remedies or claims upon any employee of any member of the Company Group, any Continuing Employee or any other Person, other than the Parties to this Agreement, (ii) shall constitute the establishment, amendment to or any other modification of any New Plan, Employee Benefit Plan or any other benefit plan, program or arrangement, (iii) shall alter or limit Buyer’s, any member of the Company Group’s or any of their Affiliates’ ability to amend, modify or terminate any particular benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement or (iv) shall confer upon any current or former employee any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment.

The Seller will begin work on the Interim Carveout Financial Statements (including work related to the review thereof) within five (5) Business Days of the date hereof. Seller shall keep Buyer reasonably informed on a current basis regarding the preparation of the Carveout Financial Statements. All costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing in the preparation of the Carveout Financial Statements shall be borne by Seller (including the cost of the audit and review to be performed by the Company’s independent auditor incurred prior to the Closing). Seller also agrees that Buyer may have reasonable access to Company management during normal business hours and upon prior written notice to the Company and information as may be reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with its preparation of pro forma financial statements based off of such Carveout Financial Statements.

Section 5.22 San Francisco Lease. Following the Closing through the date on which Final Purchase Price is determined, Buyer shall cause the Company Group to use commercially reasonable efforts to sublease the remaining portion of the premises leased by the Company Group pursuant to the San Francisco Lease.

Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there shall be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

Section 7.5 Interpretation. The headings and captions used in this Agreement and the table of contents to this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto and not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings set forth in this Agreement. The use of the word “including” herein shall mean “including without limitation.” The use of the word “or” herein shall mean “and/or”. Except where otherwise expressly provided, all amounts in this Agreement are stated and shall be paid in United States currency. The Parties and their respective counsel have reviewed, negotiated and adopted this Agreement as the joint agreement and understanding of the Parties, and the language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Person. For the avoidance of doubt, Fraud does not include negligent misrepresentation or omission or knowledge of the fact that the Person making such representation or warranty does not have sufficient information to make the statement contained in the representation and warranty set forth herein, but which is nevertheless made as a matter of contractual risk allocation between the Parties.

Section 7.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to herein contain the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way. The Parties have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, Liabilities and obligations with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby exclusively in Contract pursuant to the

59

express terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the Parties expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties or are entitled to any remedies not expressly set forth in this Agreement. Furthermore, this Agreement embodies the justifiable expectations of sophisticated parties derived from arm’s-length negotiations and no Person has any special relationship with another Person that would justify any expectation beyond that of an ordinary buyer and an ordinary seller in an arm’s-length transaction.

Section 7.7 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement and the agreements, certificates, instruments and documents entered into in connection herewith may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts and by electronic signature or transmission, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement. No Party shall raise the use of electronic signature or transmission as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a Contract and each Party forever waives any such defense.

Section 7.8 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction. The Law of the State of Delaware shall govern (i) all claims or matters related to or arising from this Agreement (including any tort or non-contractual claims) and (ii) any questions concerning the construction, interpretation, validity and enforceability of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, in each case, without giving effect to any choice-of-law or conflict-of-law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Law of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any right or obligation with respect to any Debt Financing Source in connection with this Agreement and any Debt Financing, and any claim, controversy, dispute, suit, action or proceeding relating thereto or arising thereunder, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY OF THE PARTIES (WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND/OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED AMONG THE PARTIES HEREUNDER. THE PARTIES HERETO FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN ADDITION, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY DEBT FINANCING, WHETHER AT LAW OR IN EQUITY AND WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE. Each of the Parties submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of first, the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware or if such court declines jurisdiction, then to the Federal District Court for the District of Delaware, in any action or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or Proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any action or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other courts. Nothing in this Section 7.8, however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by Law or at equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law or at equity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each party hereto hereby submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and any appellate courts thereof with respect to any suit, action or proceeding against any Debt Financing Source in connection with this Agreement and any Debt Financing, whether at law or in equity and whether in tort, contract or otherwise, and hereby agrees that it will not bring or support any such suit, action or proceeding in any other forum.

Section 7.9 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached, including if the Parties fail to take any action required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. It is accordingly agreed that (i) the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent such breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of this Agreement in the courts described in Section 7.9 without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (ii) the right of specific performance and other equitable relief is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right neither Buyer nor the Seller would have entered into this Agreement. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the Parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.9 will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction. If, on or prior to the Outside Date, any Party brings any Proceeding, in each case, in accordance with Section 7.8, to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the Outside Date will automatically be extended (x) for the period during which such Proceeding is pending, plus ten (10) Business Days or (y) by such other later date established by the court presiding over such Proceeding, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will this Section 7.9 be used, alone or together with any other provision of this Agreement, to require the Seller to remedy any breach of any representation or warranty of the Company made in this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is explicitly acknowledged and agreed by the Parties that the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance of Buyer’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement if (I) all conditions set forth in Section 2.6(b) have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing and are capable of being so satisfied if the Closing were to occur), (II) Buyer has failed to consummate the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.5 and (III) the Seller has confirmed in writing to Buyer that the Seller stands ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 7.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder (other than (x) in respect of Non-Party Affiliates and the Indemnified Persons, each of whom is an express third-party beneficiary hereunder and entitled to enforce certain obligations hereunder and (y) in respect of the Debt Financing Sources, each of which is an express third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.10, the last two sentences of Section 5.16 and Sections 5.20, 7.1 and 7.8).

Section 7.11 Legal Representation. The Seller and Buyer hereby agree, on their own behalf and on behalf of their current and future directors, managers, members, partners, officers, equityholders, employees and Affiliates and each of their successors and assigns (all such parties, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Group, the “Waiving Parties”), that Nob Hill Law Group, P.C. and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP (collectively, “Seller Counsel”) (or any successor thereto) may represent any members of the Company Group or any direct or indirect director, manager, member, partner, officer, employee, equityholder or Affiliate thereof, in connection with any dispute, litigation, claim,

61

Proceeding or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any agreement entered into in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby (any such representation, the “Post-Closing Representation”) notwithstanding its representation (or any continued representation) of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Buyer on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives (and will not assert) any conflict of interest or any objection arising therefrom or relating thereto. Buyer acknowledges that the foregoing provision applies whether or not Seller Counsel provides legal services to any member of the Company Group after the Closing Date. Buyer, for itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications among Seller Counsel, any member of the Company Group, the Seller and/or any director, officer, manager, member, equityholder, employee or representative of any of the foregoing made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Proceeding arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any agreement entered into in connection herewith, the transactions contemplated hereby or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, that, immediately before the Closing would be deemed to be privileged communications of the Company Group and the Seller, on the one hand, and Seller Counsel, on the other hand, and which would not be subject to disclosure to Buyer in connection with any process relating to a dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement, any agreement entered into in connection herewith, the transactions contemplated hereby or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, shall continue to be privileged communications (all such communications, “Privileged Deal Communications”) and the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs solely to the Seller and may be exclusively controlled by each the Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or any member of the Company Group, and from and after the Closing none of Buyer, any member of the Company Group or any Person purporting to act on behalf of or through Buyer, any member of the Company Group or any of the Waiving Parties will seek to obtain the same by any process. Buyer and each of the Waiving Parties acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, following the Closing, each member of the Company Group) and their respective successors and assigns, that no such Person may use or rely on any of the Privileged Deal Communications in any Proceedings, hearings, orders, investigations, charges, complaints, arbitrations or other disputes against or involving the Seller or its Affiliates. From and after the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties, irrevocably waives and will not assert any attorney-client privilege with respect to any Privileged Deal Communications among Seller Counsel, any member of the Company Group, the Seller and/or any director, officer, manager, member, equityholder, employee or representative of any of the foregoing occurring prior to the Closing in connection with any Post-Closing Representation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or any member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and a third party other than the Seller or its Affiliates, on the other hand, Buyer and any member of the Company Group may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of Privileged Deal Communications to such third party; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor any member of the Company Group may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 7.12 Schedules. All Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto or referred to herein and the Recitals to this Agreement are (a) each hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein and (b) qualified in their entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement. Any fact or item disclosed in any Section of the Schedules shall be deemed disclosed in each other Section of the Schedule to which such fact or item may apply so long as (x) such other Section is referenced by applicable cross-reference or (y) it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other Section or Schedule. The headings contained in the Schedules are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Schedules or this Agreement. The Schedules are not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as, an admission or indication that any such fact or item is required to be disclosed. The Schedules shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any representations, warranties or covenants described in this Agreement. Any fact or item, including the

62

specification of any dollar amount, disclosed in the Schedules shall not by reason only of such inclusion be deemed to be material, to establish any standard of materiality or to define further the meaning of such terms for purposes of this Agreement, and matters reflected in the Schedules are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected therein and may be included solely for information purposes; and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of the amounts or the fact of the inclusion of any item in the Schedules in any dispute or controversy between the Parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described or included in the Schedules is or is not required to be disclosed (including whether the amount or items are required to be disclosed as material or threatened) or is within or outside of the Ordinary Course of Business. No disclosure in the Schedules relating to any possible breach or violation of any Contract, Law or order shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Where only brief particulars of a matter are set out or referred to in the Schedules or a reference is made only to a particular part of a disclosed document, full particulars of the matter and the full contents of the document are deemed to be disclosed; provided that such document has been made available to the non-disclosing Party. The information contained in the Schedules shall be kept strictly confidential by the Parties and no third party may rely on any information disclosed or set forth therein. Moreover, in disclosing the information in the Schedules, the Seller expressly does not waive any attorney-client privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed therein.
