Section 1.04    Consents to Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery to Buyer of any asset that would be an Acquired Asset is (a) prohibited by any applicable Law or (b) would require any authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers from a Third Party or Governmental Entity and such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, then in either case the Closing shall proceed without the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of such asset and this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement for the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of such asset; provided, that nothing in this Section 1.04 shall be deemed to waive the rights of Buyer not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement if the conditions to its obligations set forth in Article V have not been satisfied. In the event that the Closing proceeds without the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such asset, then following the Closing, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain promptly such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers. Pending such authorization, approval, consent or waiver, (i) Seller will comply with the terms of, and will not amend, transfer, let lapse or terminate, its rights with respect to the applicable asset without Buyer’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and (ii) the Parties shall cooperate with each other in any mutually agreeable, reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide to Buyer the benefits of use of such asset, and to Seller the benefits, including any indemnities, that, in each case, it would have obtained had the asset been conveyed to Buyer at the Closing.

Once authorization, approval, consent or waiver for the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such asset not sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed or delivered at the Closing is obtained, Seller shall promptly assign, transfer, convey and deliver such asset to Buyer at no additional cost to Buyer.

Section 1.05    Further Assurances.

From time to time, whether at or after the Closing, (i) Seller shall execute and deliver such further documents or instruments of conveyance, transfer and assignment and take all such other action as Buyer may reasonably require to more effectively convey, transfer and assign to Buyer any and all ownership, right, title and interest in and to the Acquired Assets, including executing documents or instruments necessary to permit Buyer to record the transfer, conveyance and/or assignment of any and all Transferred IP with any Governmental Entity and (ii) Buyer, and any other member of the Buyer Group, will execute and deliver such further instruments and take all such other action as Seller may reasonably require for such member of the Buyer Group to assume the Assumed Liabilities.

There are no outstanding Orders of any Governmental Entity or arbitral body affecting the Acquired Assets, Assumed Liabilities, the CF Enterprise, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Seller is in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Acquired Assets Permits. Seller has timely filed all material regulatory reports, schedules, statements, documents, filings, submissions, forms, registrations, notices and other documents, together with any amendments required to be made with respect thereto, that each was required to file with any Regulatory Authority related to the Acquired Assets (“Acquired Assets Regulatory Filings”), and has timely paid all Taxes, fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Party agrees (i) to make all necessary applications, notices, petitions and filings required (and thereafter make any other required submissions and respond as promptly as practicable to any requests for additional information or documentary material) with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby with the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) on a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the execution of this Agreement (unless another date is mutually agreed between the Parties), and any other Governmental Entity under any other applicable Antitrust Law and (ii) to promptly determine whether any other filings are required to be made with, and whether any other consents, approvals, Permits or authorizations are required to be obtained from, any Governmental Entity under any other applicable Law in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and if so, to promptly prepare and file any such filings and to seek any such other consents, approvals, permits or authorizations (the filings described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, “Regulatory Filings”). All filing fees required in connection with the Regulatory Filings shall be borne by Buyer.

(b)    In connection with, and without limiting, the efforts or the obligations of the Parties under Section 4.03(a) but subject to Section 4.03(f), each of Buyer and Seller shall, to the extent permitted

by applicable Law and not prohibited by the applicable Governmental Entity, (i) cooperate and coordinate in all respects with the other in the making of Regulatory Filings (including, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, providing copies, or portions thereof, of all such documents to the non‑filing Parties prior to filing and considering all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested by the non‑filing Parties in connection therewith) and in connection with resolving any investigation, request or other inquiry of any Governmental Entity under any applicable Law with respect to any such filing, (ii) supply the other Party and its counsel, as applicable, with any information and reasonable assistance that may be required or reasonably requested in connection with the making of such filings, including, within the time allowed by the relevant Governmental Entity and under applicable Law, any additional or supplemental information that may be required or reasonably requested by the FTC, the DOJ and the relevant Governmental Entities in any applicable jurisdiction in which any such filing is made under any other applicable Law and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods (and any extension thereof) under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law (the “Antitrust Approvals”), in each case as soon as practicable, and to avoid any impediment to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby under any applicable Law, including using commercially reasonable efforts to take all such action as reasonably may be necessary to resolve such objections, if any, as the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity or Person may assert with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.03(b), none of Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, shall be required to agree to any term or take or refrain from taking any action in connection with obtaining the Antitrust Approvals that is not conditioned upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c)    Each of Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall, to the extent practicable and unless prohibited by applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Entity, promptly inform the other of any material communication from any Governmental Entity regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby in connection with any Regulatory Filings or investigations with, by or before any Governmental Entity relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, including any claims, complaints, actions, suits, proceedings, hearings or investigations initiated by a private party. If any Party or affiliate thereof shall receive a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to a Regulatory Filing, then such Party shall, subject to Section 4.03(f), use its commercially reasonable efforts to make, or cause to be made, as soon as reasonably practicable, an appropriate response in compliance with such request. In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, to the extent reasonably practicable and unless prohibited by applicable Law or by the applicable Governmental Entity, the Parties will (i) give each other reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any Governmental Entity relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) give each other an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings, (iii) keep the other Party reasonably apprised with respect to any material communications with any Governmental Entity regarding the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) cooperate in the filing of any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions or other written communications explaining or defending the transactions contemplated hereby, articulating any regulatory or competitive argument or responding to requests or objections made by any Governmental Entity, (v) provide each other with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon, and consider in good faith the views of the other with respect to, all material written communications (including applications, analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments and opinions) with a Governmental Entity regarding the transactions contemplated hereby and (vi) provide each other (or counsel of each Party, as appropriate) with copies of all material written communications to or from any Governmental Entity relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. Any such disclosures, rights to participate or provisions of information by one Party to the other may be made on a counsel‑only basis to the extent required under applicable Law. It is acknowledged and agreed that, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.03(c) and except where

prohibited by applicable Law, Buyer shall have sole responsibility for determining strategy with respect to the Antitrust Approvals.

(d)    Buyer will not extend any waiting period under the HSR Act (by pull and refile, or otherwise) or any other Antitrust Laws or enter into any agreement with the FTC, the DOJ or any other Governmental Entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, except with the prior written consent of Seller. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall, nor shall they permit their respective Subsidiaries to, acquire or agree to acquire any business, Person or division thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, if the entering into of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such acquisition could reasonably be expected to increase the risk of not obtaining the applicable consent, clearance, approval, authorization or waiver under the HSR Act or any Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e)    Subject to Section 4.03(f), each of Buyer and Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all of its respective consents, waivers, authorizations and approvals of all Third Parties (other than Governmental Entities, which are the subject of clauses (a)‑(d) above) necessary, proper or advisable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and to provide any notices to Third Parties required to be provided by it prior to the Closing.

(f)    Nothing contained in this Section 4.03 or in any other provision of this Agreement shall be construed as requiring Buyer to agree to any terms or conditions as a condition to, or in connection with, obtaining any Antitrust Approval that would (i) impose any limitations on Buyer’s ownership or operation of all or any portion of the Acquired Assets or all or any portion of its or its Subsidiaries’, businesses or assets, or compel Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries to dispose of or hold separate all or any portion of the Acquired Assets or any portion of its or its Subsidiaries’, businesses or assets, (ii) impose any limitations on the ability of Buyer to acquire or hold or to exercise full rights of ownership of the Acquired Assets, (iii) impose any obligations on Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of or relating to Buyer’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ facilities, operations, places of business, employment levels, products or businesses, (iv) require Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries to make any payments or (v) impose any other obligation, restriction, limitation, qualification or other condition on Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (other than, with respect to clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), such terms or conditions as are reasonable and relate to the Ordinary Course and that are imposed by a Governmental Entity with power and authority to grant the Antitrust Approvals, and which, individually or in the aggregate, do not competitively disadvantage Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries) (any such term or condition in (i) through (v) being referred to herein as a “Burdensome Term or Condition”).

(g)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall Seller or any of its Subsidiaries agree to any obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, condition, remedy or other action relating to the Antitrust Approvals without the prior written consent of Buyer; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing (i) it is understood and agreed that any failure by Seller to agree to any such obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, condition, remedy or other action by reason of Buyer’s withholding its written consent from Seller to do so shall not constitute a breach of this Section 4.03 by Seller and (ii) Buyer shall be required to provide its written consent to Seller agreeing to any such obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, condition, remedy or other action to the extent it would not, individually, or together with any other such obligation, restriction, requirement, limitation, qualification, condition, remedy or other action, impose a Burdensome Term or Condition.

Section 4.04    Notices of Certain Events. During the Pre‑Closing Period, Seller and Buyer shall promptly notify the other Party of any of the following after gaining knowledge thereof:

(a)    any material actions, suits, claims or proceedings in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement commenced or threatened against Seller relating to the Acquired Assets or the Assumed Liabilities, or Buyer, as the case may be;

(b)    the occurrence or non-occurrence of any fact or event which would be reasonably likely to cause any condition set forth in Article V of this Agreement not to be satisfied;

(c)    the occurrence or existence of any fact, circumstance or event which could result in any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement or any exhibit, schedule or certificate or delivered herewith, to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect;

(d)    any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(e)    any oral or written communication Seller receives from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Acquired Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the transactions contemplated hereby;

(f)    the occurrence of any event, circumstance, development, state of facts, occurrence, change or Effect which has had a Seller Material Adverse Effect or the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, circumstance, development, state of facts, occurrence, change or effect which would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate to result in a Seller Material Adverse Effect; and

(g)    any filings, payments or similar actions that must be taken within 120 days of the Closing Date for the purposes of obtaining, maintaining, perfecting or renewing registration of Registered IP.

If Seller provides a notification pursuant to this Section 4.04(a), (b), (c), (f) and (g) prior to the Closing, Seller shall also, by notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, supplement or amend the Seller Disclosure Letter (each, a “Supplement”), in order to correct any matter that first arises after the date hereof which may constitute a breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant contained herein. If Buyer does not provide a written termination notice pursuant to Section 7.01(h) within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day cure period set forth in Section 7.01(b), Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its rights (i) to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(b) and (ii) to seek indemnification from Seller in accordance with Section 6.02, in each case, solely with respect to the subject matter of such Supplement.

Section 4.05    Release of Encumbrances. Seller shall take all actions required of Seller to cause any Encumbrance, other than Permitted Encumbrances, on the Acquired Assets to be terminated and released as of the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4.05 modifies Seller’s obligation to deliver the Acquired Assets free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Permitted Encumbrances.

Section 4.06    No Solicitation by Seller; Seller Board Recommendation.

(a)    During the Pre‑Closing Period, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate, or furnish or disclose non-public information in furtherance of, any inquiries that would reasonably be expected to lead to, or the making of any proposal or offer to implement, any Alternative Transaction, or negotiate or otherwise engage in discussions with any Person (other than Buyer or its Representatives) with respect to any Alternative Transaction, or approve, recommend or authorize any

Alternative Transaction, or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to any Alternative Transaction or requiring it to abandon, terminate or fail to consummate the sale of the Acquired Assets in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, that at any time prior to receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval (and in no event after receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval), Seller may furnish information or afford access to, and negotiate or otherwise engage in discussions with, any Third Party who delivers a bona fide written proposal for an Alternative Transaction that was not solicited after the date of this Agreement or in violation of this Section 4.06, if and so long as the Seller Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Seller Board’s fiduciary duties under Delaware Law and determines in good faith that such a proposal is, or would reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal.

(b)    During the Pre-Closing Period, Seller shall notify Buyer promptly (but in any event within 24 hours) of any inquiries, proposals or offers received by, or any discussions or negotiations sought to be initiated or continued with, Seller or any of its Representatives, in each case relating to an Alternative Transaction, indicating the name of such Person and providing to Buyer a summary of the material terms of such proposal or offer for an Alternative Transaction. Prior to providing any information or data to, or entering into any negotiations or discussions with, any Person in connection with a proposal or offer for an Alternative Transaction, Seller shall receive from such Person an executed confidentiality agreement containing confidentiality terms and provisions at least as restrictive as those contained in the Confidentiality Agreement (which shall not preclude discussions or negotiations relating to the proposal or offer from such Person and which shall not contain any exclusivity provision or other term that would restrict, in any manner, Seller’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement). Seller agrees that it will keep Buyer reasonably informed, on a reasonably prompt basis, of the status and material terms of any such proposals or offers (including any material developments) in respect of any such discussions or negotiations and that it will deliver to Buyer a summary of any material changes to any such proposals or offers and all nonpublic information being furnished to such Person not previously provided to Buyer.

(c)    Seller agrees that it will immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Third Parties conducted prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any Alternative Transaction (and promptly terminate all physical and electronic data room access previously granted to any such Third Party) and will not terminate, amend, modify or waive any provision of any confidentiality or standstill agreement to which it is a party and shall enforce, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the provisions of any such agreement.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.06 or Section 4.07 to the contrary, at any time prior to the receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval (and in no event after the receipt of the Seller Stockholder Approval), the Seller Board may (i) effect a Seller Change of Recommendation in response to a Seller Intervening Event or (ii) effect a Seller Change of Recommendation and, subject to compliance with this Section 4.06 and Section 7.01(g), terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01(g), following receipt of an unsolicited bona fide written proposal for an Alternative Transaction after the date of this Agreement, which the Seller Board determines in good faith by resolution duly adopted after consultation with its outside legal counsel is a Superior Proposal, in each case with respect to clauses (i) and (ii), if and only if the Seller Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel that such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Seller Board’s fiduciary duties under Delaware Law and Seller has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of this Section 4.06 with respect thereto. Prior to effecting a Seller Change of Recommendation or Seller Change of Recommendation and termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01(g) as provided above, Seller shall provide Buyer with five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice (it being understood and agreed that any amendment to the financial terms or any other material term of such applicable Alternative Transaction or any change to the material facts or circumstances relating to such Seller Intervening Event shall, in each case, require a

new written notice and a new three (3) Business Day period commencing at the time of such new notice) advising Buyer of Seller’s intention to effect a Seller Change of Recommendation or Seller Change of Recommendation and termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01(g) as provided above, and specifying in reasonable detail (i) in the case of an Alternative Transaction, the material terms and conditions of, and the identity of any Person proposing, such Alternative Transaction or (ii) in the case of a Seller Intervening Event, the material facts and circumstances relating to such Seller Intervening Event, and that Seller shall, during such time and if requested by Buyer, engage in good faith negotiations with Buyer (including by making its officers and its legal advisors reasonably available to negotiate) to amend this Agreement (x) such that the proposed Alternative Transaction would no longer constitute a Superior Proposal or (y) in a manner that obviates the need to effect a Seller Change of Recommendation, as applicable. The Parties agree that nothing in this Section 4.06 shall in any way limit or otherwise affect Buyer’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(c) at such time as the requirements of such subsection have been met. Any such Seller Change of Recommendation shall not change the approval of this Agreement or any other approval of the Seller Board in any respect that would have the effect of causing any state corporate takeover statute or other similar statute to be applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding any Seller Change of Recommendation, if this Agreement is not otherwise terminated by either Party in accordance with the terms hereof, this Agreement shall be submitted to the stockholders of Seller at the Seller Special Meeting for the purpose of voting on the authorization of this Agreement and the transactions consummated hereby, and nothing contained herein, including any rights of Seller to take certain actions pursuant to Section 4.06, shall be deemed to relieve Seller of such obligation. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Seller from (A) complying with Rule 14a-9, Rule 14d-9 and Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, that any such action made that relates to an Alternative Transaction shall be deemed to be a Seller Change of Recommendation unless the Seller Board recommends against the Alternative Transaction and reaffirms the Seller Board Recommendation in connection with such action, (B) making any disclosure to the stockholders of Seller if the Seller Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with the Seller Board’s fiduciary duties under Delaware Law or (C) informing any Person of the existence of the provisions contained in this Section 4.06; provided, however, that neither the Seller Board nor any committee thereof shall, except as expressly permitted by this Section 4.06(d), effect any Seller Change of Recommendation, it being understood that a “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of Seller pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to the stockholders of Seller) shall not be deemed to be or constitute a Seller Change of Recommendation.

Section 4.07    Preparation of the Proxy Statement; Seller Stockholders’ Meeting.

(a)    As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement (but in any event, no more than twenty (20) days following the date of this Agreement), Seller shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Proxy Statement in preliminary form, in such form and substance as Seller shall determine and providing Buyer with an opportunity to review (and Seller will give reasonable and due consideration to all comments by Buyer) and in compliance as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Each of Seller and Buyer shall furnish all information concerning itself, its Affiliates and the holders of its Common Stock to the other and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by such other Party in connection with the preparation, filing and distribution of the Proxy Statement. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement, and shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after receipt thereof, provide Buyer with copies of all correspondence related to the Proxy Statement between it and its Representatives, on one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Proxy Statement received from the SEC, and advise Buyer of any oral comments with respect to the Proxy Statement received from the SEC. Seller shall respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any comments from the SEC with respect

to the Proxy Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no filing of any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement or response to any comments of the SEC with respect to the Proxy Statement or any amendment or supplement thereof shall be made by Seller without providing Buyer with an opportunity to review (and Seller will give reasonable and due consideration to all comments by Buyer), except to the extent such amendment, supplement or response are made in connection with an Alternative Transaction as permitted by Section 4.06.

(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the information supplied or to be supplied by either Party for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement shall not, on the date the Proxy Statement (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) is first mailed to stockholders of Seller, at the time of the Seller Special Meeting, or as of the Closing Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If, at any time prior to the Closing Date, any information relating to Seller or Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates, should be discovered by Seller or Buyer that, in the reasonable judgment of Seller or Buyer, should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Proxy Statement, so that the Proxy Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Party, and Seller and Buyer shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment of, or supplement to, the Proxy Statement and, to the extent required by Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to stockholders of Seller. Nothing in this Section 4.07(b) shall limit the obligations of any Party under Section 4.07(a). For purposes of this Section 4.07, any information concerning or related to Seller or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives will be deemed to have been provided by Seller, and any information concerning or related to Buyer or its Affiliates or their respective Representatives will be deemed to have been provided by Buyer.

(c)    Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06, Seller shall, in accordance with applicable Law and Seller’s charter and bylaws, establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Seller Special Meeting as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, for the purpose of obtaining the Seller Stockholder Approval; provided, that the Seller Special Meeting shall occur no more than thirty (30) Business Days after the date that the SEC has advised that it will not provide further comments on the Proxy Statement (or the date on which the ten‑day period referred to in Rule 14a‑6 under the Exchange Act has expired without receipt of SEC comments or notice from the SEC that it will provide comments). Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06 and compliance with applicable Law, Seller shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable on or after the date that the SEC has advised that it will not provide further comments on the Proxy Statement (or the date on which the ten‑day period referred to in Rule 14a‑6 under the Exchange Act has expired without receipt of SEC comments or notice from the SEC that it will provide comments) (but it any event no more than five (5) Business Days thereafter), mail the Proxy Statement to the stockholders of Seller. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06, Seller (i) shall include in the Proxy Statement the Seller Board Recommendation, (ii) shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit and obtain the Seller Stockholder Approval, and (iii) shall not withhold, withdraw, amend, modify or qualify (or publicly propose to or publicly state that it intends to withdraw, amend, modify or qualify) in any manner adverse to Buyer the Seller Board Recommendation (it being understood that publicly taking a neutral position or no position with respect to an Alternative Transaction (other than a “stop, look and listen” communication to the stockholders of Seller pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act (or any similar communication to the stockholders of Seller) shall be considered a modification to the Seller Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Buyer) (collectively, a “Seller Change of Recommendation”), except to the extent permitted by Section 4.06. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.07(c), Seller shall be permitted to recess, adjourn, postpone or delay the Seller Special Meeting without the prior consent of Buyer if and solely to the extent

that: (i) there are holders of an insufficient number of Common Stock present or represented by a proxy at the Seller Special Meeting to constitute a quorum at the Seller Special Meeting, provided, that any such recesses, adjournments, postponements or delays shall not cause the Seller Special Meeting to be recessed, adjourned, postponed or delayed by more than fifteen (15) days after the initial date established for the Seller Special Meeting; (ii) Seller has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of Common Stock to obtain the Seller Stockholder Approval, provided, that any such adjournments, postponements or delays shall not cause the Seller Special Meeting to be adjourned, postponed or delayed by more than more than fifteen (15) days after the initial date established for the Seller Special Meeting; (iii) such adjournment, postponement, delay or cancellation is required by applicable Law or a request from the SEC or its staff; or (iv) in the good faith judgment of the Seller Board (after consultation with its outside legal advisors), the failure to adjourn, postpone or delay the Seller Special Meeting would be reasonably likely to not allow sufficient time under applicable Laws for the distribution and review of any required or appropriate supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement by Seller’s stockholders prior to the Seller Special Meeting as then‑scheduled.

Section 5.01    Conditions to the Obligations of Each Party. The respective obligations of Buyer and Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby are subject to the satisfaction or waiver (if permissible under applicable Law) by Buyer or Seller, as appropriate, at or before the Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

Section 6.04    Claims for Indemnification.

(a)    Third Party Claims.

(i)    All claims for indemnification made under this Agreement resulting from, related to or arising out of a Third Party claim, action, suit or proceeding (a “Third Party Claim”) against an Indemnified Party shall be made in accordance with the following procedures. A Person entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notification to the Person from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the commencement of any Third Party Claim for which indemnification may be sought or, if earlier, upon the written assertion of any such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any Liability hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced thereby, and then only to such extent. Within twenty (20) days after delivery of such notification, the Indemnifying Party may, upon written notice thereof to the Indemnified Party, assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim, so long as prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming control of such defense, it has provided reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party (A) of its financial ability to assume the cost of such Third Party Claim and (B) that, as between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, any Damages related to such Third Party Claim shall be the responsibility of the Indemnifying Party (subject to any applicable limitations provided in Section 6.05); provided, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable or non-monetary relief, (ii) the maximum amount the Indemnified Party would be entitled to recover under this Article VI in respect of such Third Party Claim is anticipated to be more than the Cap, (iii) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by its counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, and (iv) upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume control of such defense in accordance with the terms hereof, the Indemnified Party shall control such defense.

(ii)    The Party not controlling such defense may participate therein at its own expense and may retain separate co‑counsel at its own expense; provided, that if (A) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed, or is not entitled, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.04(a)(i), (B) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, which authorization shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, or (C) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised in writing by such counsel that there may be one (1) or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are not available to the Indemnifying Party, or are available to the Indemnifying Party but the assertion of which would be adverse to the interests of the Indemnified Party, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party solely in connection therewith shall be considered Damages for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however,

that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all Indemnified Parties. The Party controlling such defense shall keep the other Party advised of the status of such Third Party Claim and the defense thereof and shall consider recommendations made by the other Party with respect thereto.

(iii)    The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as the Indemnifying Party is actively and diligently defending in good faith any such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of (y) such Third Party Claim that (A) does not include a complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all Liability with respect thereto, (B) has a finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person, (C) imposes any injunctive relief or other restrictions of any kind or nature on any Indemnified Party or (D) imposes any Liability on the Indemnified Party, or (z) any matters with respect to Taxes that could reasonably be expected to adversely impact Buyer or the Acquired Assets in any Post-Closing Tax Period, in each case without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Each of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall direct their respective counsel to reasonably cooperate with the other.

(b)    Procedure for Other Claims. An Indemnified Party wishing to assert a claim for indemnification under this Article VI which is not subject to Section 6.04(a) shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) which contains (i) a description and, if then known, the amount (the “Claimed Amount”) of any Damages incurred by the Indemnified Party or the method of computation of the amount of such claim of any Damages, (ii) a statement that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this Article VI and a reasonable explanation of the basis therefor, and (iii) a demand for payment in the amount of such Damages (including wire instructions if payment is requested to be made by wire transfer). Within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response in which the Indemnifying Party shall (A) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount (in which case, within five (5) Business Days of such response, the Indemnifying Party shall, as applicable, pay to the Indemnified Party by check or by wire transfer, or Seller and Buyer shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release to the Indemnified Party from the Escrow Amount an amount equal to the Claimed Amount to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than two (2) Business Days prior to such payment), (B) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (the “Agreed Amount”) (in which case, within five (5) Business Days of such response, the Indemnifying Party shall, as applicable, pay to the Indemnified Party by check or by wire transfer, or Seller and Buyer shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release to the Indemnified Party from the Escrow Amount an amount equal to the Agreed Amount to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than two (2) Business Days prior to such payment), or (C) contest that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount including the reasons therefor. If the Indemnifying Party in such response contests the payment of all or part of the Claimed Amount, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days following the delivery by the Indemnifying Party of such response, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall each have the right to submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.09.

Section 6.05    Limitations. (a)  Subject to Section 10.13, from and after the Closing, the rights of the Indemnified Parties under this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Indemnified Parties with respect to claims resulting from any breach of warranty or failure to perform any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement or otherwise relating to the transactions that are the subject of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve or limit the Liability of any Party or any officer or director of such Party from any liability arising out of or resulting from fraud or intentional or willful misconduct in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Related Agreement, or in connection with the delivery of any of the documents referred to herein or therein.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the following limitations shall apply:

(i)    the aggregate liability of Seller for all Damages (y) under Section 6.02(a)(i) (other than in respect of fraud or intentional or willful misconduct by Seller or in respect of any Fundamental Representation of Seller) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Escrow Amount (the “Cap”); and (z) other than in respect of fraud or intentional or willful misconduct by Seller, under Section 6.02(a) shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the Base Purchase Price and any Contingent Payment paid pursuant to Section 1.02(b);

(ii)    a Buyer Indemnified Party shall have no right to indemnification under Section 6.02(a)(i) (other than in respect of fraud or intentional or willful misconduct by Seller or in respect of any Fundamental Representation of Seller, in each case, as to which the limitation shall not apply) unless and until the amount of Damages suffered by such Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to an individual claim under such sections exceeds $50,000 (it being stated for the avoidance of doubt that Damages arising from any potential indemnification claims that arise out of or involve or relate to similar facts or are based on related or similar occurrences, events or circumstances will be aggregated and treated as an individual claim for this purpose) and the aggregate amount of Damages suffered by such Buyer Indemnified Party under such section exceeds $1,600,000 (the “Aggregate Threshold”), whereupon the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified for all Damages (including Damages up to the Aggregate Threshold), subject to the limitations contained in Section 6.05(b)(i);

(iii)    the aggregate liability of Buyer for all Damages (y) under Section 6.03(a)(i) (other than on account of fraud or intentional or willful misconduct by Buyer or in respect of any Fundamental Representation of Buyer) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Cap; and (z) other than on account of fraud or willful misconduct by Buyer, under Section 6.03(a) shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of the Base Purchase Price and any Contingent Payment paid pursuant to Section 1.02(b); and

(iv)    a Seller Indemnified Party shall have no right to indemnification under Section 6.03(a)(i) (other than on account fraud or intentional or willful misconduct by Buyer or in respect of any Fundamental Representation of Buyer, in each case, as to which the limitation shall not apply) unless and until the amount of Damages suffered by such Seller Indemnified Party with respect to an individual claim under such sections exceeds $50,000 (it being stated for the avoidance of doubt that Damages arising from any potential indemnification claims that arise out of or involve or relate to similar facts or are based on related or similar occurrences, events or circumstances will be aggregated and treated as an individual claim for this purpose) and the aggregate amount of Damages suffered by such

Seller Indemnified Party under such sections exceeds the Aggregate Threshold, whereupon the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be indemnified for all Damages (including Damages up to the Aggregate Threshold), subject to the limitations contained in Section 6.05(b)(iii).

(c)    In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be responsible and liable under this Article VI for special or punitive Damages, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are awarded to a Third Party against any Indemnified Party in circumstances in which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be responsible and liable under this Article VI for indirect, consequential or incidental Damages except to the extent that (i) such Damages are awarded to a Third Party against any Indemnified Party in circumstances in which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder, or (ii) such Damages are a reasonably foreseeable result of the event that gave rise thereto or the matter for which indemnification is sought hereunder.

(d)    The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Article VI shall be computed net of any Third Party insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party (net of any retroactive premium adjustments and any other costs of collection), each Party agreeing (i) to use commercially reasonable efforts to recover all available insurance proceeds and (ii) to the extent any indemnity payment under this Agreement has been paid by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party prior to the receipt, directly or indirectly by the Indemnified Party of any net insurance proceeds under Third Party insurance policies on account of such Damages which duplicate, in whole or in part, the payment by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall remit to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the amount of the net insurance proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party on account of such Damages which duplicate, in whole or in part, the payment made by the Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party. No Party shall be entitled to recover more than once for the same Damages.

Section 6.06    Manner of Payment. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 6.05(b), any indemnification of Buyer pursuant to Section 6.02 shall be effected (i) first, by release of funds held by the Escrow Agent with respect to indemnification of Buyer pursuant to Section 6.02 for any Damages incurred up to an amount equal to the Escrow Amount pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement and (ii) second, to the extent of any difference, by wire transfer of immediately available funds from Seller to an account designated in writing by Buyer. In the event any payment is to be made from the Escrow Account in accordance with this Section 6.06, Seller and Buyer shall deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to release to the Indemnified Party from the Escrow Account the appropriate amount by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than two (2) Business Days prior to such payment.

Section 6.07    Right of Setoff. Upon notice to Seller specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, Buyer may, at its sole discretion, set off any amount to which it may be entitled under this Article VI that is the subject of a final, non-appealable decision from a court of competent jurisdiction against amounts otherwise payable pursuant to Section 1.02.

Section 6.08    Adjustment to Purchase Price. Any payment by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, pursuant to this Article VI shall be treated as an adjustment to the Base Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 6.09    Release of the Escrow Account. On the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, to the extent the amount remaining in the Escrow Account exceeds any amounts which are the subject of any unresolved or unsatisfied claims for indemnifiable Damages pursuant to Section 6.02 that were properly made on or prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date in accordance with the provisions of this Article VI, Buyer and Seller shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a joint written

instruction in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement to the effect that the Escrow Agent release any such excess amount to Seller as of such date. To the extent any amounts are retained in the Escrow Account pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release such funds, following the resolution of each such claim, to Buyer or to Seller in accordance with the resolution of the applicable claim, as appropriate.

Section 7.01    Termination of Agreement. The Parties may terminate this Agreement prior to the Closing as provided below:

then (x) in the case of a termination contemplated by Section 7.02(b)(i)(A), Seller shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer within two (2) Business Days following the termination of this

Agreement, a fee, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account specified by Buyer, equal to $6,400,000 (the “Termination Fee”); (y) in the case of termination contemplated by Section 7.02(b)(i)(D), Seller shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer the Termination Fee on the date of termination of this Agreement; and (z) in the case of a termination contemplated by Section 7.02(b)(i)(B) or Section 7.02(b)(i)(C), if Seller, within twelve (12) months after such termination either consummates an Alternative Transaction or enters into a definitive agreement to implement an Alternative Transaction, Seller shall pay to Buyer the Termination Fee simultaneously with such consummation or entering into such definitive agreement, as the case may be. For purposes of clause (z) of this Section 7.02(b)(i), each reference to “15%” in the definition of “Alternative Transaction” shall be deemed to be a reference to “50%.”

(ii)    If Buyer or Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(f)(iii), then Seller shall reimburse Buyer, or cause Buyer to be reimbursed, for Buyer’s reasonable, documented out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, provided, however, Seller’s aggregate liability under this Section 7.02(b)(ii) shall not exceed an amount equal to $500,000.

(iii)    In no event shall Seller be obligated to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

(c)    Seller acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 7.02 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that without this Section 7.02 Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement and (ii) the Termination Fee is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Buyer in the circumstances in which the Termination Fee is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. If Seller fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this Section 7.02, Seller shall pay to Buyer all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of enforcement (including reasonable attorney’s fees as well as reasonable expenses incurred in connection with any action initiated by Buyer), together with interest on the amount of the Termination Fee at the prime lending rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date such payment is required to be made.

(d)    If Seller becomes obligated to pay the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 7.02(b), Buyer agrees that Buyer’s right to receive the Termination Fee from Seller shall be Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy against Seller, its Subsidiaries, Affiliates and their respective Representatives and, upon payment of the Termination Fee, neither Seller, its Subsidiaries, Affiliates nor their respective Representatives shall have any Liability or obligation to Buyer relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e)    In the event that this Agreement is terminated (i) by either Buyer or Seller pursuant to Section 7.01(f)(ii), and at the time of such termination any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.01(b) or (c) (under conditions attributable to one or more Antitrust Laws) or Section 5.01(d) shall not have been satisfied or waived or (ii) by either Buyer or Seller pursuant to Section 7.01(f)(i) (under conditions attributable to one or more Antitrust Laws), and at the time of such termination under either Section 7.01(f)(i) or Section 7.01(f)(ii), all conditions set forth in Article 5 other than those attributable to Antitrust Laws have been satisfied or waived by the party or parties then entitled to give such waiver (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied as of the Closing, provided, that each such condition is then capable of being satisfied), then Buyer shall reimburse Seller, or cause Seller to be reimbursed, for Seller’s reasonable, documented out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions

contemplated hereby, provided, however, that Buyer’s aggregate liability under this Section 7.02(e) shall not exceed an amount equal to $500,000.

Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of any transfer, sales, use, stamp, conveyance, value added, recording, registration, documentary, filing and other non‑income Taxes and administrative fees (including notary fees) arising in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”). Buyer shall, at its own expense, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Seller shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary). Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other to minimize any Transfer Taxes.

Section 8.02    Withholding Taxes. Each of Buyer and Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable to Seller or any other Person pursuant to this Agreement (including the Contingent Payments, if any) all Taxes that Buyer or the Escrow Agent, as the case may be, are required to deduct or withhold therefrom under any applicable provision of Tax Law with respect to the making of such payment. All such withheld amounts shall be treated as delivered to Seller; provided, that Buyer or the Escrow Agent shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity the amounts withheld as required under any applicable provision of Tax Law. Buyer shall, to the extent reasonable, notify Seller if any such withholding is required.

Section 9.01    Post‑Closing Information. After the Closing, Buyer shall respond to reasonable, written requests for information and assistance by Seller in connection with Seller completing the audit of its accounts and preparation of its required federal, state and local Tax Returns.

Section 9.02    Wrong Pockets.  If either Buyer, on the one hand, or Seller, on the other hand, becomes aware that any of the Acquired Assets has not been transferred to Buyer or that any of the Excluded Assets has been transferred to Buyer, Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other and the Parties shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, ensure that such property is transferred, with any necessary prior Third Party consent or approval, to (a) Buyer, in the case of any Acquired Asset which was not transferred to Buyer at the Closing; or (b) Seller, in the case of any Excluded Asset which was transferred to Buyer at the Closing.

Section 9.03    Use of Names. After the Closing Date, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cease to use the names set forth on Section 9.03 of the Seller Disclosure Letter and any name confusingly similar thereto (collectively, the “Restricted Names”) and any trademarks, trade names, trade dress, service marks and logos that use or incorporate any Restricted Name. Seller agrees that from and after the Closing, Seller shall not have any right, title, interest, license or other right whatsoever in the Restricted Names. Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, remove, strike over or obliterate all Restricted Names and any trademarks, trade names, trade dress, service marks and logos that use or incorporate any Restricted Name from the Excluded Assets (it being understood that this requirement shall not apply to fair use of any Restricted Name, including, but not limited to, in documents and materials kept as records that are maintained for

internal use only and not publicly disseminated, or to be archived as such records, for historical purposes or as required by applicable Law). Any use of the Restricted Names by Seller as permitted in this Section 9.03 is subject to its use of each Restricted Name in the same form and manner as, to the same extent as (without an increase in extent or type of uses of each Restricted Name) and subject to the same standards of quality that are in effect for each Restricted Name as of the Closing Date. All goodwill arising from any such use shall inure to the benefit of Buyer or an applicable Affiliate of Buyer owning the Restricted Name so used. Seller shall not to use any Restricted Name in any manner that may reflect negatively on such name and mark or on Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

At any time that such protective order or remedy has not been obtained, Seller or such Affiliate or Representative may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Material which such Person is legally required to disclose or of which disclosure is required to avoid sanction for contempt or any similar sanction, and Seller shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Material so disclosed. Seller further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives, upon the request of Buyer, promptly will deliver to Buyer all documents, or other tangible embodiments, constituting Confidential Material or other information with respect to the Acquired Assets, without retaining any copy thereof, and shall promptly destroy all other information and documents constituting or containing Confidential Material; provided, however, that Seller or its Representatives shall be permitted to retain one archival copy of any Confidential Material for record purposes and to evidence Seller’s compliance with this Agreement or applicable Law, and in addition, nothing in this Agreement shall require the alteration, modification, deletion or destruction of back-up tapes or other media made in the ordinary course of business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.05 shall restrict, place conditions on or impede Seller from the current or planned (each as of the Closing Date) Development, Manufacturing, or Commercialization of any Excluded Therapeutic Products.

(b)    During the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date that is twelve (12) months after the earlier of (i) termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and (ii) the Closing Date, each of Buyer and Seller shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or employ or cause to leave the employ of the other Party or any of its Affiliates, any employee of the other Party or its Affiliates, without obtaining the prior written consent of the other Party; provided that each Party may make general solicitations for employment not specifically directed at the other Party or any of its Affiliates or their respective employees and employ any person who responds to such solicitations.

(c)    Seller shall instruct its officers and directors, and shall cause its Affiliates to instruct their officers and directors, not to directly or indirectly through any other Person (whether as an officer, manager, director, employee, partner, consultant, holder of equity or debt investment, lender or in any other manner or capacity), engage in conduct, oral or otherwise, that disparages or damages or would reasonably be expected to disparage or damage any of Buyer, its Affiliates or any of their respective current or former Representatives, holders of equity or debt investments, lenders, businesses, activities, operations or reputations.

(d)    As a material inducement to Buyer’s execution of this Agreement (without such inducement Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement), Seller acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this Section 9.05 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of Buyer and its acquisition of the Acquired Assets. Seller shall not contest that Buyer’s remedies at law for any breach or threat of breach by Seller or any of its Affiliates of the provisions of this Section 9.05 will be inadequate, and that Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of the provisions of this Section 9.05 and to enforce specifically such terms and provisions, in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer may be entitled at Law or equity, as well as the reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees it incurs in enforcing the provisions contained in this Section 9.05. The covenants contained in this Section 9.05 are covenants independent of any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties hereunder, and the existence of any claim Seller may have against Buyer under any other provision of this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of the provisions contained in this Section 9.05. Seller further agrees that should it violate any provisions contained in this Section 9.05, the Non‑Compete Period shall extend for an additional time period that is equal to the term of such violation so that Buyer is provided with the full benefit of the restrictive period set forth in this Section 9.05.

(e)    If any of the provisions contained in this Section 9.05 shall for any reason be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject, then such provision shall be construed by limiting and reducing it with respect to such jurisdiction, only to the extent necessary so as to be valid and enforceable to the extent compatible with the applicable Law of such jurisdiction.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each of the Parties named herein and its respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, that (i) Seller may assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder to any successor or assign of

Seller’s business through the acquisition (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) of more than 50% of the voting power of Common Stock and/or substantially all of Seller’s assets and (ii) Buyer may assign the right to acquire certain of the Acquired Assets to one or more of its Affiliates prior to the Closing (provided, that in connection with any such assignment, Buyer shall remain primarily liable for such assigned obligations); provided, however, following the Closing, Buyer may assign and delegate, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations hereunder to either (i) a wholly‑owned Subsidiary of Buyer, (ii) an Affiliate under common control with Buyer or (iii) in connection with the transfer by Buyer of all or substantially all of the Acquired Assets; and provided, further, however, that no such assignment shall relieve Buyer of any obligation or liability under this Agreement.

Section 10.07    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but both of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by e‑mail of a .pdf, .tif, .jpeg or similar attachment (“Electronic Delivery”), and any such counterparty delivered using Electronic Delivery shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person.

Section 10.09    Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the Law of any other state. Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any suit, action, legal proceeding or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the agreements delivered in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such suit, action, legal proceeding or claim except in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such suit, action, legal proceeding or claim may be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if such court finds it lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action, legal proceeding or claim in such courts and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action, legal proceeding or claim in such courts. Each of the Parties hereto (A) agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action, legal proceeding or claim shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law and (B) waives any objection to the recognition and enforcement by a court in other jurisdictions of any such final judgment. Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 10.09 in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.08. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

Section 10.10    Amendments and Waivers. The Parties may mutually amend or waive any provision of this Agreement at any time. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the Parties. No waiver by either Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.

Section 10.11    Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the body making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

Section 10.12    Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the Related Agreements, each of the Parties shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not the Closing takes place.

Section 10.13    Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached or are threatened to be breached, and that money damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for any such damages. It is accordingly agreed that prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01, (i) the Parties shall be entitled to seek (in a court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 10.09) an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including Buyer’s obligation to effect the Closing), without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement, and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, neither Seller nor Buyer would have entered into this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is explicitly agreed that Seller shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy to specifically enforce Buyer’s obligation to effect the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth herein in the event that all conditions in Sections 5.01 and 5.02 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which is then capable of being satisfied at a Closing on such date) at the time when the Closing would have occurred but for the failure of Buyer to comply with its obligations to effect the Closing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each of Seller and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that following a valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01, each Party shall be entitled to seek monetary damages for a willful or intentional breach of this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.02(a).

Section 10.14    Guaranty. Guarantor irrevocably guarantees each and every covenant and obligation of Buyer and the full and timely performance of Buyer’s obligations under the provisions of this Agreement. This is a guaranty of payment and performance, and not of collection, and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this guaranty is full and unconditional, and no release or extinguishments of

Buyer’s Liabilities (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), whether by decree in any bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise, will affect the continuing validity and enforceability of this guaranty. Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Seller, (i) any right to require Seller as a condition of payment or performance of Guarantor to proceed against Buyer or pursue any other remedies whatsoever and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by Law that limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, except to the extent that any such defense is available to Buyer. Guarantor understands that Seller is relying on this guaranty in entering into this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall the maximum amount payable by Guarantor hereunder for any reason and under any legal theory in law or at equity exceed an amount equal to the Base Purchase Price and any Contingent Payment that becomes payable pursuant to Section 1.02(b).

Section 10.15    Construction. Except where expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, the following rules of interpretation apply to this Agreement: (a) “either” and “or” are not exclusive and “include”, “includes” and “including” are not limiting; (b) “hereof”, “hereto”, “hereby”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement; (c) the word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning as the word “shall”; (d) “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase does not mean simply “if”; (e) definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms; (f) references to any Law, Contract, instrument or other document shall mean such Law, Contract, instrument or other document as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including by succession of comparable successor Laws; (g) references to a person or entity are also to its permitted successors and assigns; (h) references to an “Article”, “Section”, “Exhibit”, “Annex” or “Schedule” refer to an Article or Section of, or an Exhibit, Annex or Schedule to, this Agreement; (i) references to “$” or otherwise to dollar amounts refer to the lawful currency of the United States; (j) unless the context so requires, references to any Laws or specific provisions of Laws shall include any rules, regulations and delegated legislation issued thereunder; (k) references to any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms; (l) the table of contents and headings set forth in this Agreement are for convenience of reference purposes only and shall not affect or be deemed to affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement or any term or provision hereof; and (m) references herein to “primarily” shall include “primarily” as well as any other standard that reflects a majority or more of the matter addressed, including “exclusively” or any similar term. Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to calendar days unless Business Days are specified, and if any action is to be taken or given on or by a particular calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action may be deferred until the next Business Day. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against either Party. The Parties agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any Law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document.

Section 10.16    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES

SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.16.

The Parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
