(a)    Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Sellers (i) a statement setting forth Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Closing Date Indebtedness, the Closing Date Cash and the Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses (such statement, as delivered to the Sellers, the “Purchase Price Adjustment Statement”) and (ii) reasonable supporting information and documentation used by Buyer in the preparation of each component of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement. The Purchase Price Adjustment Statement shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the methods,

policies, practices, procedures, assumptions, conventions and adjustments set forth on Annex B. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that in determining the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash and Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses, (x) the accounting methods, policies, practices, procedures, assumptions, conventions and adjustments set forth on Annex B shall be utilized, (y) the amount of Closing Date Net Working Capital shall be calculated in U.S. dollars, using the applicable foreign currency exchange rates set forth on Annex B and (z) all other amounts shall be converted into U.S. dollars at the noon buying rate as quoted by the Wall Street Journal on the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(b)    The Base Consideration Amount, plus (i) the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount (if a positive number), minus (ii) the absolute value of the Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount (if a negative number), minus (iii) the Closing Date Indebtedness as set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, plus (iv) the Closing Date Cash as set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, minus (v) the Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses as set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, as such may be adjusted and finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.3, shall be known as the “Final Closing Consideration Amount”. If the Final Closing Consideration Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Consideration Amount, then Buyer shall pay the Sellers the amount by which the Final Closing Consideration Amount is greater than the Estimated Closing Consideration Amount pursuant to Section 2.3(g). If the Final Closing Consideration Amount is less than the Estimated Closing Consideration Amount, the Sellers shall pay Buyer the amount by which Final Closing Consideration Amount is less than Estimated Closing Consideration Amount pursuant to Section 2.3(g).

(c)    Each Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other and, during normal business hours and upon prior written notice, each Party shall provide the other Party and its representatives with reasonable access to financial records and work papers pertaining to, or used in connection with, the preparation of the Closing Date Statement, the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement and any Objection Dispute, and to relevant personnel, during the preparation of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement and the resolution of any disputes that may arise under this Section 2.3; provided that the accountants of each of Buyer, the Sellers and the Conveyed Entities shall not be obligated to make any work papers available except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after the non-client party has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants.

(d)    If the Sellers disagree with Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Indebtedness or Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses as set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, the Sellers shall notify Buyer in writing of such disagreement, specifying the nature and amount of any dispute as to Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Indebtedness or Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement to the Sellers (the “Objection Disputes”). The Sellers shall conclusively be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date

Cash, Closing Date Indebtedness and Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses to which the Sellers have not specifically objected in the written notice of Objection Dispute, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review under Section 2.3(e). Any Objection Dispute may only reference objections based on mathematical errors or based on amounts of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Indebtedness or Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses not being calculated on a basis consistent with the methods, policies, practices, procedures, assumptions conventions and adjustments set forth on Annex B. The failure of the Sellers to deliver a written notice of an Objection Dispute to Buyer within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement to the Sellers shall conclusively be deemed acceptance of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement and agreement to the Purchase Price Adjustment amount by the Sellers.

(e)    Subject to Section 2.3(d), Buyer and the Sellers shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any Objection Dispute and any resolution agreed to in writing by Buyer and the Sellers shall be final and binding upon the Parties. If Buyer and the Sellers are unable to resolve all Objection Disputes within twenty (20) days of delivery of a valid written notice of such Objection Disputes by the Sellers to Buyer, then the disputed matters shall be submitted to the Accounting Expert for final determination, and any discussions between Buyer and the Sellers during the previously referenced twenty (20) day period shall (unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and the Sellers) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rule of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. Buyer and the Sellers shall jointly select an accounting firm to serve as the Accounting Expert; provided that such accounting firm shall be of national standing and shall not be an independent auditor of (and shall not otherwise serve as a consultant to) either Buyer or the Sellers (or their respective Affiliates). If Buyer and the Sellers are unable to agree upon an accounting firm within fifteen (15) days, then an accounting firm of international standing shall be designated by the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York; provided, that such firm shall not be the independent auditor of (or otherwise serve as a consultant to) either Buyer or the Sellers (or their respective Affiliates) (such accounting firm as determined in accordance with this Section 2.3(e), the “Accounting Expert”). The Accounting Expert shall only consider those items and amounts set forth on the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement as to which Buyer and the Sellers have disagreed within the time periods and amounts and on the terms specified in Section 2.3(d) and must resolve all unresolved Objection Disputes in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The Accounting Expert shall deliver to Buyer and the Sellers, as promptly as practicable and in any event within sixty (60) days after its appointment, a written report setting forth the resolution of any unresolved Objection Disputes determined in accordance with the terms herein. The Accounting Expert shall select as a resolution for each Objection Dispute a value no greater than the greatest value assigned to such item by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Sellers, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value assigned to such item by Buyer, on the one hand, or the Sellers, on the other hand (based solely on presentations and supporting material provided by the Parties and not pursuant to any independent review), and may not impose an alternative resolution. Such report shall be final and binding upon all of the Parties to this Agreement, absent manifest error or fraud. Upon the agreement of Buyer and the Sellers or the decision of the Accounting Expert, or if the Sellers fail to deliver written notice of disagreement to Buyer within the thirty (30) day period provided in Section 2.3(d), the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, as adjusted if

necessary pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement for purposes of calculating the Purchase Price Adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.3.

(f)    The fees, costs and expenses of the Accounting Expert shall be borne by Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the disputed amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually disputed by such Party. For example, if Buyer claims the Closing Consideration Amount is $1,000 less than the amount determined by the Sellers, and the Sellers contest only $500 of the amount claimed by Buyer, and if the Accounting Expert ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Buyer $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Accounting Expert will be allocated 60 percent (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Sellers and 40 percent (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Buyer.

(g)    Any Purchase Price Adjustment shall be paid by Buyer or the Sellers, as applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Party, or its designee, receiving such payment within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Purchase Price Adjustment, with interest thereon from and including the Closing Date to but not including the date of payment at an annual rate equal to the prime lending rate prevailing at such time, as published in the Wall Street Journal, provided, however, that any portion of the Purchase Price Adjustment as to which there is no dispute or as to which agreement has been reached shall be paid within five (5) Business Days after its determination or after reaching such agreement.

(h)    The Sellers and Buyer agree to treat any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.3 as an adjustment to the Closing Consideration Amount for all Tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, any such adjustment shall be taken into account in the determination of liability for Taxes under Section 5.13(a).

(i)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no item shall be counted more than once in the determination of Closing Date Indebtedness, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Net Working Capital or Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses. Any item used in determining Estimated Closing Date Indebtedness, Estimated Closing Date Cash, Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital or Estimated Conveyed Entity Transaction Expenses shall retain that classification in the preparation of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement. To the extent an adjustment is made to the Closing Consideration Amount under this Section 2.3, Buyer may not bring a claim under any other provision of this Agreement seeking recovery for Losses in respect of such adjustment.

(j)    The Parties agree that in determining the amount of inventory for purposes of determining the Closing Date Net Working Capital, the Sellers and Buyer shall jointly conduct a physical count of all the inventory of the Conveyed Entities three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, or on such other date as mutually agreed, which physical count shall be conducted in accordance with policies and procedures to be agreed by the Parties, based upon the applicable policies and procedures used by the Conveyed Entities in conducting physical counts of all Inventory during the 2017 calendar year as previously provided to Buyer. The physical counting process shall be observed by representatives of one accounting firm chosen by Buyer

and one accounting firm chosen by the Sellers. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Inventory Amount” shall mean the physical count of inventory of the Conveyed Entities, as rolled forward or backward from the date of the account, so as to be the amount of inventory of the Conveyed Entities existing as of 11:59 P.M. on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date, as agreed to by the Sellers and Buyer in accordance with this Section 2.3(j). If the Sellers and Buyer agree on such count, the Inventory Amount, as so agreed, shall be used by the Sellers for purposes of determining the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital and by the Parties for purposes of determining Closing Date Net Working Capital for purposes of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement. If the Sellers and Buyer cannot agree on the results of such count, the Sellers shall use their calculation of the Inventory Amount for purposes of determining the Estimated Closing Date Net Working Capital and Buyer shall use its calculation of the Inventory Amount for purposes of determining Closing Date Net Working Capital for purposes of the Purchase Price Adjustment Statement, and any disputes shall then be settled by the Accounting Expert in accordance with Section 2.3(e).

Section 2.4    Allocation of Consideration. Within ninety (90) days following the Closing, Buyer shall provide to the Sellers, for the Sellers’ review and comment, a draft schedule allocating the Closing Consideration Amount and other relevant items among the Direct Transferred Equity Interests, and the further allocation of the amount allocated to the U.S. Conveyed Entity among the assets of the U.S. Conveyed Entity in accordance with Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Buyer and the Sellers shall work together in good faith to agree on the final allocation of the Closing Consideration Amount and other relevant items among the Direct Transferred Equity Interests and among the assets of the U.S. Conveyed Entity. If Buyer and the Sellers are unable to agree upon a final allocation schedule within thirty (30) days of Buyer providing the draft allocation schedule, any dispute shall be resolved in a manner substantially similar to that described in Section 2.3(e) above. In the event an adjustment to the Closing Consideration Amount is made pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 or otherwise under this Agreement (including under Article VIII) (and any refunds and/or other payments are made in connection therewith), the allocation of the Closing Consideration Amount shall be revised to allocate such adjustment to the Direct Transferred Equity Interests based upon the item to which such adjustment is attributable. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law or a relevant Taxing Authority (a) this final allocation shall be binding on the Parties for federal, state, local, non-U.S. and other Tax reporting purposes, (b) no Party will assert or maintain a position inconsistent with this final allocation and (c) the applicable Tax Returns to be filed by any of the Parties or their Subsidiaries shall reflect this final allocation.

Section 2.5    Closing.

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the purchase and sale of the Conveyed Entity Equity Interests contemplated hereby shall take place at a closing (the “Closing”) to be held at 9:00 a.m. (New York time) no later than three Business Days after the last of the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions which, by their nature, are to be satisfied on the Closing Date), at the offices of Bond, Schoeneck & King, PLLC, 200 Delaware Avenue, Suite 900, Buffalo, NY 14202, or at

Section 5.2    Employment Matters.

(a)    Employment. All individuals who are employed by a Conveyed Entity immediately prior to the Closing, including all Business Entity Employees transferred in accordance with Section 5.2(h)(ii), and who continue as employees after the Closing Date are referred to herein as “Continued Employees”. Buyer shall, or shall cause the Conveyed Entities to, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (or if shorter, during the period of employment), provide to the Continued Employees (i) base salaries or wage rates and annual cash bonus opportunities which are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the base salaries or wage rates and annual cash bonus opportunities provided by the Sellers and the Conveyed Entities immediately prior to the Closing, and (ii) employee benefits, including severance pay and benefits, that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than those provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer or its Affiliates; provided, that continued participation in a Transferred Plan shall satisfy the requirement of this clause (ii). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.2(a) shall require Buyer or the Conveyed Entities to maintain the employment of any specific Continued Employee for any period of time after the Closing.

(b)    Service Credit. Periods of employment with the Conveyed Entities or any of their current or former Affiliates prior to the Closing, to the extent previously recognized under any Employee Plan, shall be credited for purposes of determining, after the Closing and as applicable, eligibility for participation, vesting and level of benefits of any Continued Employee under all employee benefit plans offered by Buyer, the Conveyed Entities or an Affiliate of Buyer to the Continued Employees, including vacation or personal leave plans or arrangements, 401(k) or similar defined contribution retirement plans, and any severance or welfare plans; provided, however, that nothing herein shall require taking into account service for the purposes of any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA, any frozen or grandfathered Employee Plan, or any plan, program or policy providing retiree health or life benefits, or to the extent that such credit would result in the duplication of any benefits for the same period of service.

(c)    Pre-Existing Conditions; Payment Credits. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Conveyed Entities, to: (i) waive any limitation on the coverage of Continued Employees and their eligible dependents due to any pre-existing conditions under any group health plan of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer; (ii) credit Continued Employees and their eligible dependents with all payments credited against any out-of-pocket maximum, and with any expenses incurred and credited against any deductible, under any group health plan of the Sellers or their Affiliates prior to the Closing Date during the plan year in which the Closing occurs, for purposes of determining the extent to which any such person has satisfied his or her deductible or reached the out-of-pocket maximum under any group health plan of Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer for such

year; and; and (iii) if Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer sponsors a flexible spending arrangement (“FSA”) for the benefit of Continued Employees, credit each participating Continued Employee’s account under such FSA of Buyer or an Affiliate with contributions made to such employee’s FSA under any Seller’s Plan (less reimbursement payments) during the plan year in which the Closing occurs in a manner that complies with applicable Law; provided that if Buyer provides credit to participating Continued Employee under such FSA, the Sellers shall reconcile underspent and overspent flexible spending accounts of Continued Employees in its flexible spending arrangement(s) immediately prior to Closing and transfer to Buyer the net amount, along with a breakdown by Continued Employee of the reconciliation.

(d)    Withdrawal from Employee Plans. The Conveyed Entities shall withdraw, effective as of the Closing Date, from any Employee Plan that is not a Transferred Plan, in the manner, if any, that such Employee Plan specifies for withdrawal of a participating employer.

(e)    Assumption of Transferred Plans. The Parties shall cooperate in order to enable Buyer and the Conveyed Entities to assume or retain and honor the Transferred Plans. Buyer and the Conveyed Entities shall be solely responsible for all liabilities relating to the amendment or termination of any Transferred Plan after the Closing or any alleged termination of any Transferred Plan in connection with the consummation of the Transactions and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees therefrom accordingly.

(f)    401(k) Plan. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but no later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, cause the Section 401(k) plan maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates in which the Continued Employees are eligible to participate following the Closing to accept rollover contributions of “eligible rollover distributions” (within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code) from the Sellers’ 401(k) plans excluding any loans.

(g)    Consultation with Employee Representative Bodies. Sellers shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to undertake all legally required provision of information to, or consultations, discussions or negotiations with, employee representative bodies (including any unions or works councils) which represent Continued Employees.

(h)    Personnel.

(i)    Prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall effect the transfer of employment of the Non-Business Entity Employees (collectively, the “Retained Personnel”) to any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities); provided, however, that to the extent that any Retained Personnel cannot be transferred from a Conveyed Entity to any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities) prior to the Closing Date for any reason, Seller shall fully reimburse the Conveyed Entities on demand, and shall fully indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and the Conveyed Entities, for and against any and all costs (including without limitation, compensation, salary, wages, health and welfare benefits, severance, penalties, legal fees and any other costs) associated with (x) continuing to employ such Retained Personnel

following the Closing, including, to the extent applicable, any notice period for such Retained Personnel, and (y) terminating the employment of the Retained Personnel. For the avoidance of doubt, none of Buyer or any of its Affiliates shall have any liability relating to the Retained Personnel.

(ii)    Prior to the Closing Date, the Sellers shall effect the transfer of employment of each Business Entity Employee from any Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities) to a Conveyed Entity.

(i)    Payment of Transaction Bonus Obligations. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall pay, or shall cause their Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities) to pay, the amount of any transaction related bonuses owed to any Continuing Employees in connection with the consummation of the Transactions, together with the employer portion of any payroll, employment, social security or other Taxes payable in connection therewith.

(j)    Other than in relation to Save-As-You-Earn Plans and Share Incentive Plans under Schedules 2 and 3 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 in relation to which no Tax liability or reporting obligation arises to a Conveyed Entity, respectively, the Sellers undertake to:

(i)    inform Buyer of the vesting, exercise, or other event relevant for Tax purposes (as applicable) of any Share Awards and to provide, in a timely manner, details of the Share Awards and relevant event so that Buyer or Conveyed Entity can make any applicable withholdings for any Tax and pay any Tax to the relevant Taxing Authority within the applicable timescale;

(ii)    procure that Buyer or the Conveyed Entities receive (before the due date for payment of such amounts to the relevant Taxing Authority) an amount equal to the amount of Tax that the Conveyed Entities are required to withhold and pay to any relevant Taxing Authority (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any employer’s social security liabilities) in connection with the relevant event (as appropriate), provided that Buyer agrees to provide to the Sellers details of any withholding rates that are applicable to the holders of such Awards in advance and (in the absence of such a notification) the Sellers can assume that the withholding rates applicable at the time of Closing may apply; and

(iii)    provide to Buyer such other information as Buyer shall reasonably request for the purposes of filing or complying with any reporting obligation related to the Share Awards.

(k)    Other than in relation to Save-As-You-Earns Plans and Share Incentive Plans under Schedules 2 and 3 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003 respectively, and without prejudice to the obligations of the Sellers under Section 5.13(a)(i), Buyer shall have all the withholding and reporting obligations (including annual reporting obligations) and liability to pay or account for any Tax in relation to any vesting or exercise of Share Awards.

Without limitation, Buyer shall, and shall cause any Affiliate which employs or employed the relevant employee of the Conveyed Entity, to:

(i)    pay over to the appropriate Taxing Authority the amount of any Tax that is required to be accounted to such Taxing Authority and remit back to the employee any excess amounts that are not required to be withheld;

(ii)    pay to the appropriate Taxing Authority an amount equal to the employer social security contributions before the date on which the employer social security contributions must be accounted for to such Taxing Authority; and

(iii)    unless specifically agreed otherwise with the Sellers in writing, be responsible for reporting to the appropriate Taxing Authority the taxable event that has occurred in connection with the Share Awards.

Section 5.3    Publicity. The Sellers and Buyer agree to communicate and cooperate with each other prior to any public disclosure of the Transactions. The Sellers and Buyer agree that no public release, filing, notification, announcement or other communication (including Governmental Filings) concerning or describing the Transactions or the financial or other effects of such transactions shall be issued, released, filed, disseminated or published by any Party or its Affiliates without the prior consent of the other Party, except (a) as such release or announcement may be required by Law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the London Stock Exchange and NASDAQ) upon which the securities of the Sellers or Buyer, as applicable, or any of their respective Affiliates, are listed, and in the event such disclosure is required, a Party may include such information as it customarily discloses with respect to similar transactions; and (b) as may be necessary or desirable in connection with any Governmental Filings. Each Party shall, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, allow the other Party reasonable time to review and comment on all public releases, filings, notifications, announcements or other communications (including Governmental Filings) concerning the Transactions in advance of their issuance, release, filing, dissemination or publication.

Section 5.4    Confidentiality, Access.

(a)    The Parties hereby agree to treat the contents of this Agreement, all nonpublic information obtained in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions as confidential in accordance with the terms of that certain Confidentiality Agreement between Cobham and Buyer, dated as of September 20, 2017 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) which shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing Date, at which time the Confidentiality Agreement, and the obligations of the Parties under this Section 5.4, shall terminate and be of no further force or effect. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. The foregoing and the Confidentiality Agreement shall not prevent a Party from making any disclosure (x) as may be required by Law or the rules and regulations of any stock exchange (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the London Stock Exchange and NASDAQ) upon which the securities of the Sellers or Buyer, as applicable, or any of their respective Affiliates, are

listed, and in the event such disclosure is required, a Party may include such information as it customarily discloses with respect to similar transactions; and (y) as may be necessary or desirable in connection with any Governmental Filings. For the avoidance of doubt, the non-solicitation provision set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement shall not prevent Buyer from having discussions prior to Closing with respect to the Entity Employees solely regarding their roles with Buyer and the Conveyed Entities after the Closing.

(b)    Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.4(a), from the date hereof until the Closing, or such earlier date on which this Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms, upon reasonable notice, the Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including the Conveyed Entities) and each of its and their respective representatives to: (i) afford Buyer and its authorized representatives reasonable access to the officers, personnel, properties, Contracts, and Business Records of the Conveyed Entities and (ii) furnish to the authorized representatives of Buyer such additional financial and operating data and other information regarding the Conveyed Entities and their respective businesses and operations as Buyer and its authorized representatives may from time to time reasonably request; provided, however, that and such access shall be during normal business hours and in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the normal operations of Conveyed Entities. All requests by Buyer for access pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) shall be submitted or directed to the individuals specified in Section 5.4(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or, in each case, such other individuals as the Sellers may designate in writing from time to time. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to the Closing, Buyer shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the Real Property.

Section 5.5    Information.

(a)    The Sellers and their respective Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities) shall transfer to the Conveyed Entities the original copies of all books, records, documents, instruments, accounts, correspondence, writings, evidence of title and other papers relating to the Conveyed Entities.

(b)    Subject to Section 5.13, each Party shall retain the books, records, documents, instruments, accounts, correspondence, writings, evidence of title and other papers relating to the Conveyed Entities with respect to the period prior to the Closing in its possession for at least seven (7) years following the Closing Date or such longer period as may be required by Law or applicable court order. After the Closing, upon reasonable written notice, Buyer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Sellers, and the Sellers shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Buyer, access, during normal business hours, to such information and assistance relating to the Conveyed Entities as is reasonably necessary for insurance matters, financial reporting and accounting matters, the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, the defense of any Tax claim or assessment, in connection with any disclosure obligation or the defense of any Action. The Sellers shall reimburse Buyer and Buyer shall reimburse the Sellers for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in assisting the Sellers or Buyer, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 5.5(b).

(c)    From the date hereof until the Closing, the Sellers shall, and shall cause the Conveyed Entities to, cooperate with Buyer such that, immediately following the Closing, the Conveyed Entities shall be able to timely satisfy the following deliveries to Buyer.

(i)    within fifteen (15) days after each calendar month, the U.S. Conveyed Entity and the other Conveyed Entities shall provide Buyer the management financial information customarily prepared by the Conveyed Entities on a monthly basis, in each case prepared in accordance with the accounting policies, procedures and estimates as set forth in Annex B, consistent with their respective past practice; and

(ii)    within thirty five (35) days after each quarter (other than the quarter ended December 31, 2017), the U.S. Conveyed Entity and the other Conveyed Entities shall provide Buyer the management financial information customarily prepared by the Conveyed Entities on a quarterly basis, in each case prepared in accordance with the accounting policies, procedures and estimates as set forth in Annex B, consistent with their respective past practice.

(d)    Cobham and the Sellers firmly commit to cause to be prepared, in consultation with Buyer, and delivered to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (London) (“PwC UK”) and Buyer prior to the Closing draft unaudited 2017 “carve-out” financial statements with respect to the Conveyed Entities described below (the “2017 Financials”) sufficient to permit PwC UK to initiate the audit field work for an audit of the 2017 Financials conducted in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards (“U.S. GAAS”). The 2017 Financials shall consist of a balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 and related statements of income, cash flows and changes in equity equivalent for the twelve (12) month period then ended (and related notes thereto) shall be prepared with respect to the Conveyed Entities on a combined basis in accordance with International Financial Reporting as adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS as adopted by IASB”). Buyer, Sellers and Cobham shall each use reasonable best efforts to cause PwC UK to conduct, and shall assist such auditors in conducting, an audit of the 2017 Financials in accordance with U.S. GAAS. To the extent requested by Buyer, Cobham and Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) support Buyer in connection with the preparation of pro forma financial statements required to be filed by Buyer pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X, (ii) to cause PwC UK to provide any required consents to include and/or incorporate the audited 2017 Financials in future registration statements filed by Buyer or its Affiliates and (iii) provide necessary “comfort letters” in connection with future issuances or sales of securities of the Buyer or its Affiliates.

(e)    In addition, if the Closing will occur after May 10, 2018, Sellers and Cobham shall use reasonable best efforts to cause to be prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by IASB, in consultation with Buyer, and delivered to Buyer, within 40 days after Closing unaudited financial statements with respect to the Conveyed Entities on a combined basis consisting of balance sheets as of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, and related statements of income, cash flows and changes in equity for the three (3) month periods ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 (and related notes thereto).

(f)    Buyer shall reimburse Cobham and the Sellers for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Cobham, Sellers and their Affiliates in complying with Section 5.5(d) and Section 5.5(e). Buyer will, and will cause its Affiliates, advisors, agents and representatives to, treat and hold as confidential any information (financial or otherwise) regarding Sellers and their Affiliates that is disclosed to, or developed or learned by, Buyer and its Affiliates in connection herewith and will refrain from disclosing and will not use any such information for any purpose other than in connection with any filings with a Governmental Entity contemplated by Section 5.5(d) and Section 5.5(e) or as necessary to comply with applicable Law or a requirement of a Governmental Entity; provided, however, that the preceding sentence shall not apply to Buyer’s use or disclosure of any confidential information of the Conveyed Entities after Closing.

Section 5.6    Filings and Authorizations.

(a)    The Sellers and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other to determine whether any filings are required to be made with, or consents, permits, authorizations, clearances (including any national security clearances), waivers or approvals are required to be obtained from, any third parties or Governmental Entities under any applicable Regulatory Law or any Contract in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, and, wherever appropriate, request early termination of any waiting periods under such Regulatory Laws. The Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, promptly file or cause to be filed and obtain or cause to be obtained all necessary Governmental Filings including, as applicable, (i) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions within fifteen (15) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, (ii) as promptly as practicable any Governmental Filings required under Foreign Antitrust Laws and all required Governmental Filings under Export Control Laws, and (iii) submissions of additional information requested by any Governmental Entity. The costs of all Governmental Filings shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer.

(b)    Without limiting the generality of Buyer’s undertaking pursuant to this Section 5.6, Buyer agrees to use its reasonable best efforts and to take any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Regulatory Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity or any other party so as to enable the Parties hereto to receive any approval under any Regulatory Law at the earliest possible point in time and to close the Transactions as promptly as possible, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of any of its assets, properties or businesses or of the assets, properties or businesses to be acquired by it pursuant to this Agreement as are required to be divested in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order or other order in any suit or proceeding, which would otherwise have the effect of materially delaying or preventing the consummation of the Transactions. In addition, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated or terminated, any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree,

stipulation, determination or award entered by or with any Governmental Entity (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the consummation of the Closing.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall not be required to take any action, or agree to any hold separate order, sale, divestiture or disposition or other condition or limitation, in each case, that would, or would reasonably be expected to, have, individually or in the aggregate, a Regulatory Material Adverse Effect. A “Regulatory Material Adverse Effect” means, with respect to actions, hold separate orders, sales, divestitures or dispositions or other condition or limitation, whether relating to the businesses, assets or operations of Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or the Conveyed Entities, a material adverse effect on a business, results, operations, EBITDA, or financial condition of the size and scale of the Conveyed Entities, taken as a whole.

(d)    The Sellers shall give reasonably prompt notice to Buyer of receipt by any Seller or any of its Affiliates of any written notice from any Person alleging that any material consent, permit, authorization, clearance, waiver or approval is or may be required in connection with the Transactions.

(e)    The Sellers and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other to determine whether any enterprise income tax is payable to the State Administration of Taxation in the People’s Republic of China as a result of the Transactions. Buyer agrees that it will not report the Transactions to the State Administration of Taxation in the People’s Republic of China without prior written authorization from the Sellers (such authorization not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), specifying what information Buyer is entitled to disclose.

Section 5.7    Director and Officer Liability; Indemnification.

(a)    From and after the Closing, Buyer shall and shall cause each Conveyed Entity to take any necessary actions to ensure all rights to exculpation and indemnification and all limitations on liability existing in favor of any current or former officers or directors of the Conveyed Entities (collectively, the “Business Indemnitees”), as provided in (i) the applicable organizational documents of the Conveyed Entities in effect on the date hereof or (ii) any agreement between a Business Indemnitee and any Conveyed Entity providing for exculpation or indemnification by such Business Indemnitee in effect on the Closing Date and made available to Buyer prior to the date hereof, in each case, shall survive the consummation of the Transactions and shall continue in full force and effect and be honored by the Conveyed Entities after the Closing, except to the extent required by applicable Law, for a period of six (6) years thereafter. Following the Closing for a period of six (6) years thereafter, except to the extent required by applicable Law, Buyer shall not permit any of the Conveyed Entities to take any action so as to amend, modify, limit or repeal the provisions for indemnification of the Business Indemnitees contained in the applicable organizational documents of the Conveyed Entities in effect on the date hereof of any Conveyed Entity in such a manner as would adversely affect the rights of any Business Indemnitee to be exculpated or indemnified by such Persons in respect of their serving in such capacities prior to the Closing. If any Action (whether arising before, at or after the Closing) subject to the exculpation or indemnification rights referred to above is made against

any Business Indemnitees on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing, the provisions of the prior sentences of this Section 5.7(a) shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such Action.

(b)    At or prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall, in consultation with Buyer, cause the Conveyed Entities to purchase, a non-terminable extension of (or equivalent insurance with respect to coverage, retentions, amounts and other material terms to) the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the Conveyed Entities (the “D&O Insurance”). The D&O Insurance shall (i) have an effective term of six years from the Closing, (ii) cover each current director or officer currently covered by the applicable directors’ and officers’ insurance policy in effect on the date of this Agreement for actions and omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing, and (iii) contain terms that are no less favorable than those of the applicable directors’ and officers’ insurance policy in effect on the date of this Agreement; provided that in any event the aggregate premium and policy limit for such D&O Insurance shall be no higher than what is set forth in Section 5.7(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules. The costs of the D&O Insurance shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, this Section 5.7 shall survive the consummation of the Transactions and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Buyer. In the event that a Conveyed Entity after the Closing or Buyer or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns or transferees of the properties or assets of the Conveyed Entity or Buyer, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.7.

Section 5.8    Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein provided, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and without limiting the obligations of the Parties under Section 5.6, each of the Parties agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all action, to do or cause to be done and to assist and cooperate with the other Party in doing all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Transactions.

Section 5.9    No Modification of R&W Policy. The Parties acknowledge that, as of the date hereof, Buyer has obtained a conditional binder to the R&W Policy, and a true and complete copy of such conditional binder has been provided to the Sellers. Buyer shall not and shall cause its Affiliates not to, amend, modify or otherwise change, terminate or waive any provision of the R&W Policy, including the waiver of subrogation set forth therein, in any manner that is adverse to the Sellers, without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 5.10    Termination of Agreements.

(a)    On and as of the Closing, except for those Contracts, if any, set forth in Section 5.10(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule and as otherwise requested by Buyer, the Sellers shall terminate (or shall cause to be terminated) all Related Party Arrangements (other than the Transition Services Agreement).

(b)    Notwithstanding any limitations set forth in Section 5.1, the Sellers shall eliminate as of the Closing (by way of capital contribution, cash settlement or otherwise, in each case as mutually determined by each Seller and Buyer) all inter-company accounts, whether payables or receivables, between each Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities), on the one hand, and any Conveyed Entity, on the other hand, and, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such payables and receivables, and other receivables (including, without limitation, non-trade receivables) in respect of that certain End License User Agreement and that certain 2014 Business Model Addendum to End-User License Agreement Rev. 140201, dated April 30, 2014, between Mentor Graphics Corporation and Aeroflex Incorporated, shall not be taken into account in calculating the Closing Date Net Working Capital.

Section 5.11    Termination of Certain Support Services. Buyer acknowledges that the Conveyed Entities currently receive from the Sellers and their Affiliates certain administrative and corporate services and benefits of a type generally provided to other businesses and Subsidiaries of the Sellers (the “Support Services”). The Sellers and Buyer acknowledge that, except for Support Services pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, Support Services shall cease at the Closing, and all agreements and arrangements (whether or not in writing) in respect thereof shall terminate as of the Closing Date, with no further obligation of any party thereto. The Parties agree that the acknowledgments contained in this Section 5.11 shall not be interpreted as limiting any of the representations and warranties made by the Sellers in this Agreement, including without limitation the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.11.

Section 5.12    Intellectual Property Matters.

(a)    Buyer acknowledges that, as between the Sellers and Buyer, the Sellers own all Retained Marks, and Buyer has no rights, and is not acquiring any rights to use the Retained Marks after the Closing Date, except as set forth in Section 5.12(b). For purposes of this Section 5.12, “Aeroflex Marks” means Trademarks consisting of or incorporating the terms “Aeroflex”, and any names (including internet Domain Names) or Trademarks related thereto or containing or comprising the foregoing, including all contractions, abbreviations, derivations, translations or transliterations of these names and Trademarks or any names or Trademarks confusingly similar thereto, or likely to be confusingly similar thereto, or dilutive thereof; and “Retained Marks” means, collectively, the Aeroflex Marks, any Trademark consisting of or incorporating the terms “Cobham,” and any other Trademark (other than Trademarks owned by the Conveyed Entities) used by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or former Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities), and any names (including internet Domain Names) or Trademarks related thereto or containing or comprising the foregoing, including all contractions, abbreviations, derivations, translations or transliterations of these names and Trademarks or any

names or Trademarks confusingly similar thereto, or likely to be confusingly similar thereto, or dilutive thereof.

(b)    Effective as of the Closing Date, the Sellers hereby grant to Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Conveyed Entities) (the “Licensees”) for two (2) years after the Closing Date (the “Trademark Term”), a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to use the Aeroflex Marks in connection with the continued operation of the business of the Conveyed Entities, including in connection with the manufacturing, promotion, advertisement, sale, and distribution of products of the Conveyed Entities, including any products of the Conveyed Entities existing as of the Closing Date, as well as any new products developed by the Conveyed Entities after the Closing Date. During the Trademark Term, the Licensees may also (i) utilize the stock of sales, marketing, promotional, and other materials (including stationary and invoices) and any products and packaging bearing the Retained Marks and in existence or in production as of the Closing Date, and (ii) develop new advertising and promotional materials bearing the Aeroflex Marks in any medium in connection with the sale, distribution, promotion and advertising of products of the Conveyed Entities, including brochures, media commercials, copy materials, packaging materials, stationary, invoices, and social media. Each Licensee may sublicense the rights granted in this Section 5.12(b) to its authorized distributors, vendors, subcontractors, and resellers acting on behalf of that Licensee in connection with the operation of the business of the Conveyed Entities. The foregoing license may be transferred in whole or in part in connection with any sale or reorganization of the business of the Conveyed Entities.

(d)    To the extent there exists any Intellectual Property (other than Trademarks or Domain Names) owned by the Sellers or their Affiliates after the Closing that was used or held

for use by the Conveyed Entities as of or prior to the Closing, the Sellers hereby grant, on behalf of themselves and their Affiliates, an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, sublicensable license in, to and under such Intellectual Property to the Conveyed Entities to continue using such Intellectual Property in the manner it was used thereby prior to the Closing and in natural evolutions of such use (which license may be transferred in whole or in part in connection with any sale or reorganization of the business of the Conveyed Entities).

(e)    To the extent any of the Transferred Intellectual Property was used by the Sellers and/or their Affiliates (other than the Conveyed Entities) (“Licensed Parties”) as of or prior to the Closing, Buyer hereby grants an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, sublicensable license in, to and under the Transferred Intellectual Property to the Sellers to continue using such Intellectual Property in the manner it was used prior to the Closing by the Licensed Parties and in natural evolutions of such use (which license may be transferred in whole or in part in connection with any sale or reorganization of the business of any of the Licensed Parties).

(4)    Any contribution made under Section 5.13(e)(iii)(3) shall be made in cleared funds the later of ten Business Days after demand is made for it and ten Business Days before the day on which the representative member must account for that VAT to H.M.R.C.

(5)    The Sellers shall pay, or shall procure to be paid, to the UK Conveyed Entity an amount equivalent to the proportion of any repayment of VAT received by the representative member from H.M.R.C. or of any credit obtained by reference to an excess of deductible input tax over output tax (and any applicable repayment supplement or interest) that is attributable to Supplies made or received, or deemed to be made or received, by the Sellers’ VAT Group though the UK Conveyed Entity while a member of the Sellers’ VAT Group within ten Business Days of receipt by, or offset against a liability of, the representative member.

(ii)    Prohibit or restrict Cobham, any Seller, Cobham plc or any of their respective Affiliates from acquiring Equity Securities in or assets of a Person (an “Acquired Person”) engaged in the Restricted Business if the gross revenues of such Acquired Person from the Restricted Business in the 12 months prior to the consummation of such acquisition do not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the total net revenues of the Acquired Person during such period.

(c)    During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Cobham and the Sellers shall not, and shall cause Cobham plc and its and their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, recruit or hire any person who is a Restricted Employee; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) a general solicitation to the public by general advertising or similar methods of solicitation by search firms not specifically directed at Restricted Employees or (ii) Cobham, any Seller, Cobham plc or any of their respective Affiliates from soliciting, recruiting or hiring any Restricted Employee who has ceased to be employed or retained by a Conveyed Entity, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates for at least 12 months.

Section 8.4    Indemnification Procedures.

(a)    If a Party hereto seeks to make a claim for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnified Claim”), other than in respect of a Third-Party Claim, the Party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the Party required to provide indemnity hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of such Indemnified Claim (a “Direct Claim Notice”), prior to the expiration of the survival period for the provision or obligation forming the basis thereof, specifying in reasonable detail the factual basis of such claim, stating the amount of Losses (or if not known, a good faith estimate of the amount of Losses), containing a reference to the provision of this Agreement in respect of which such Indemnified Claim arises and demanding indemnification therefor. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party in writing within ten (10) days following receipt of a Direct Claim Notice that it disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such Indemnified Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in the Direct Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII. If the Indemnifying Party agrees that it has an indemnification obligation, but asserts that it is obligated to pay a lesser amount than that claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such lesser amount promptly to the Indemnified Party, without prejudice to or waiver of the

Indemnified Party’s claim for the difference, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII.

(b)    In the event that any claim is asserted in writing or any Action is commenced or threatened in writing by a third party involving a claim for which an Indemnifying Party may be liable to an Indemnified Party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly (and in any event within 30 days) after the Indemnified Party receives written notification of such Third-Party Claim, specifying in reasonable detail the factual basis of such Third-Party Claim (together with a copy of all material pleadings to date in respect thereof), stating the amount of Losses (if known), containing a reference to the provision of this Agreement in respect of which such Indemnified Claim arises and demanding indemnification therefor. The failure of an Indemnified Party to provide notice in accordance with the prior sentence shall not constitute a waiver of that Party’s rights to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent that any such failure or delay materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have fifteen (15) days from its receipt of notice in respect of a Third-Party Claim to notify the Indemnified Party whether or not the Indemnifying Party desires, by counsel of its own choosing and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, to defend against such Third-Party Claim, but only if the Indemnifying Party undertakes to indemnify the Indemnified Party for such matter, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII. If the Indemnifying Party undertakes to defend against such Third-Party Claim (i) the Indemnifying Party shall diligently defend and protect the interests of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to any settlement, compromise or judgment, unless the settlement, compromise or judgment (A) relates solely to monetary damages for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 for the full amount of such monetary damages and (B) includes, as an unconditional term thereof, the full release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any event, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to engage separate counsel and to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim which the Indemnifying Party shall have undertaken to defend, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, unless (1) the engagement of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, (2) the named parties to the Third-Party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interest or (3) the Indemnifying Party fails to diligently defend such Third-Party Claim within ten (10) days after receiving notice of such failure from the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to defend against any Third-Party Claim, but rather the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control such defense, if the Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified against such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 and (i) such Third-Party Claim seeks non-monetary, equitable, or injunctive relief, or would otherwise impose criminal liability or damages or (ii), in the case where the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnitee, (A) the amount sought with respect to such Third-Party Claim is subject to and exceeds the Indemnification Limit, the

Liability Limit or the Aggregate Liability Limit, as applicable, (B) such Third-Party Claim involves a material customer or a material supplier of Buyer (or any of its Affiliates), (C) Buyer reasonably determines that the Third-Party Claim poses a significant legal, regulatory or reputational risk to Buyer or to any of its Affiliates, (D) such Third-Party Claim involves an Action in which the third party is a Governmental Entity or (E) such Third-Party Claim is covered by the R&W Policy and the Losses arising from or related to such Third-Party Claim are (or are reasonably likely to be) in excess of retention under the R&W Policy.

(c)    If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to defend against such Third-Party Claim within the fifteen (15) day period referenced in Section 8.4(b) above, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense, but, in such case, the Indemnified Party shall control the investigation and defense thereof and shall have the sole right to settle, compromise or discharge such Third-Party Claim.

(d)    The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree to keep each other reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to any Third-Party Claim and to make available to each other, their counsel, all non-privileged information and documents available to them which relate to such claim or demand at no cost to the Indemnifying Party (other than for reasonable costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party). The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and their respective employees also agree to render to each other such assistance and cooperation on a mutually convenient basis as may reasonably be required to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such claim or demand.

(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if and to the extent any indemnification payments may become due and owing to the UK Conveyed Entity pursuant to this Agreement, such payments shall instead be due and owing to Buyer.

(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent the procedures in this Section 8.4 are in conflict with the procedures in the R&W Policy with regard to matters such as notice, control, settlement or defense of claims, the procedures in the R&W Policy shall control, but this Section 8.4(f) shall not relieve the Indemnified Party from its obligations hereunder to give notice to the Indemnifying Party. For the avoidance of doubt, each party and its agents and advisors shall reasonably cooperate with the insurer under the R&W Policy in connection with the defense of any matter which might reasonably constitute a Loss. The insurer under the R&W Policy shall have the right to participate in the defense and settlement of any Third-Party Claim other matter reasonably likely to be covered by the R&W Policy.

Section 8.5    Certain Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)    No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification in respect of any claim for indemnification unless and until (i) the amount of Losses incurred in connection with any individual claim or series of related claims based on a similar set of operative facts is greater than the De Minimis Threshold and once the De Minimis Threshold has been exceeded, the Indemnified Party may be indemnified for all Losses related thereto (the “Non De Minimis Damages”) and not just the amount in excess of the De Minimis Threshold (but subject to any

remaining amount of the Deductible), and (ii) the aggregate amount of Non De Minimis Damages that have finally been determined to be indemnifiable pursuant to this Article VIII exceeds one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the Unadjusted Base Consideration Amount (the “Deductible”), and once the Deductible has been exceeded, the Indemnified Party may be indemnified for all Non De Minimis Damages in excess of the Deductible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 8.5(a) shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of, any (i) inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, (ii) fraud on the part of any Seller or Buyer or (iii) any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(c), Section 8.2(d), Section 8.2(e), Section 8.2(f), Section 8.2(g), Section 8.3(b) or Section 8.3(c).

(b)    The aggregate amount of all Losses for which the Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Article VIII shall not exceed one half of one percent (0.5%) of the Unadjusted Base Consideration Amount (the “Indemnification Limit”); provided, however, that the Indemnification Limit shall not apply to Losses based upon, arising out of, with respect to, or by reason of, any (i) inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, (ii) fraud on the part of any Seller or Buyer or (iii) any claim for indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2(c), Section 8.2(d), Section 8.2(e), Section 8.2(f), Section 8.2(g), Section 8.3(b) or Section 8.3(c). With respect to the matters set forth in sub-clause (iii) of the preceding sentence (other than covenants that are required to be performed after the Closing), the aggregate liability of the applicable Indemnifying Party shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Unadjusted Base Consideration Amount (the “Liability Limit”). With respect to any claim for indemnification for any inaccuracy in or breach of any Fundamental Representation, the aggregate liability of the Indemnifying Party shall not exceed the Unadjusted Base Consideration Amount (the “Aggregate Liability Limit”). For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Liability Limit nor the Aggregate Liability Limit shall apply to sub-clause (ii) in the third preceding sentence.

(c)    With respect to Buyer Losses claimed pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (except in the case of fraud with respect thereto), and subject to Section 8.5(a), a Buyer Indemnitee shall recover Buyer Losses (i) first, from the Sellers until all Buyer Losses recovered from the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.2(a) (taken together with Buyer Losses recovered from the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.2(b), if any) equal the Indemnification Limit and (ii) second, under the R&W Policy in accordance with its terms.

(d)    Solely with respect to Buyer Losses claimed pursuant to Section 8.2(b), the Buyer Indemnitees shall recover such Buyer Losses (i) first, from the Sellers until all Buyer Losses recovered from Sellers pursuant to Section 8.2(b) (taken together with Buyer Losses recovered from the Sellers pursuant to Section 8.2(a), if any) equal the Indemnification Limit, (ii) second, under the R&W Policy in accordance with its terms and subject to Section 8.5(e) and (iii) third, directly from the Sellers.

(e)    The Buyer Indemnitees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover Buyer Losses under the R&W Policy; provided that the Buyer Indemnitees may concurrently seek recovery from the Sellers (subject to the limitations set forth in this Article

VIII) and the R&W Policy and any recoveries from the Sellers shall be subject to the Buyer Indemnitees’ reimbursement obligations set forth in the second sentence of Section 8.5(f).

(f)    The amount of any and all Buyer Losses indemnifiable under this Agreement shall be determined net of any amounts recovered by a Buyer Indemnitee with respect to such Buyer Losses from any third party or under or pursuant to any insurance policy pursuant to which or under which a Buyer Indemnitee has rights other than recoveries under the R&W Policy (unless and to the extent such proceeds are recovered in respect of breaches of or inaccuracies in the Sellers’ Fundamental Representations in excess of the retention under the R&W Policy), it being understood that any amounts recovered under or pursuant to any insurance policy shall be calculated net of any reasonable costs associated with pursuing such insurance proceeds, including any deductible, co-pay, premium increase and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses. If any Buyer Indemnitee receives such recovery from any third party or under or pursuant to any insurance policy after receipt of payment from the Sellers (other than the R&W Policy, unless and to the extent such proceeds are recovered in respect of Sellers’ Fundamental Representations in excess of the retention under the R&W Policy), then such Buyer Indemnitee shall promptly pay over to the Sellers the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in procuring such recovery), but not in excess of any amount previously paid by the Sellers to such Buyer Indemnitee in respect of such matter. The Sellers shall not be required to indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 8.2 against any Losses to the extent that such liability was discharged (whether by payment or by the use or set-off of any relief) on or before Closing.

(g)    In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party, the De Minimis Threshold, the Deductible and the Indemnification Limit, the amount of any loss shall be determined without duplication of any Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made or could be made under any other representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement and shall be computed net of any Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss in the year such Loss is incurred, with the Loss treated as the last item of expense or deduction realized for such year.

(h)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2 hereof (other than Section 8.2(d)) (i) as to any fact, matter, circumstance or event for which a specific reserve or accrual is included as a current liability in the final Closing Date Net Working Capital or as a liability (other than a current liability) in balance sheets as of the Balance Sheet Date included in Financial Statements to the extent of such reserve or accrual or (ii) to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is able to prove that any Losses were attributable to such Indemnified Party’s willful misconduct.

(i)    In respect of any Loss for which indemnification may be sought pursuant to Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, take commercially reasonable steps, at the Indemnifying Party’s request and expense, to mitigate any Losses upon becoming aware of any event which gives rise thereto.

(j)    For all Tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat indemnity payments made pursuant to this Agreement as an adjustment to the Closing Consideration Amount except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

(k)    For the avoidance of doubt, amounts in respect of which Buyer may be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2(c) through Section 8.2(g) shall not be calculated as a multiple of earnings, profits, revenues or sales.

Section 8.6    Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement and the Transactions shall be indemnification in accordance with Section 5.2(h), Section 5.13, Section 5.26, Section 5.27 and this Article VIII, and no other remedy shall be had pursuant to any contract, misrepresentation, strict liability or tort theory or otherwise by any Party and its officers, directors, employees, agents, Affiliates, attorneys, consultants, insurers, successors and assigns, all such remedies being hereby expressly waived to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law. In furtherance of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, each of the Parties hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims, remedies and causes of action (including rights of contributions, if any) known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, which exist or may arise in the future, that such Party (or any Buyer Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees) may have against any of the Parties arising under, based upon or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions (including under any federal, state or local Law). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.6 shall not (i) apply to claims for specific performance or injunctive relief, (ii) apply to claims for fraud, or (iii) operate to interfere with or impede the operation of the provisions of Section 2.3 (providing for the resolution of certain disputes relating to the Purchase Price Adjustments).

Section 8.7    Environmental Claims. In addition to any other limitations that may apply, with respect to any claim for indemnification that Buyer may assert for a misrepresentation or breach of warranty with respect to Section 3.19 (an “Environmental Claim”), Buyer shall not be entitled to recover from the Sellers for any Loss to the extent such Loss: (i) is discovered as a result of Buyer conducting or arranging for sampling on or after the Closing Date of soil, sediment, or groundwater except to the extent such sampling is (A) required of Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any of the Conveyed Entities) by applicable Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or requested by any Governmental Entity, (B) required to be conducted in response to a Third-Party Claim or (C) reasonably necessary to respond to or evaluate the potential for a threat to human health or the environment; (ii) remediates conditions of soil, groundwater, or any other environmental medium or vapor intrusion to a standard more stringent than the least stringent standard under applicable Environmental Laws or as requested by any Governmental Entity (including site specific standards using risk-based methodologies and institutional controls, where available) for the continued use of such property in the manner in which it is used as of the date of this Agreement; (iii) is not incurred in a reasonably cost-effective manner permitted by applicable Environmental Law and which does not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Real Property by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any of the Conveyed Entities) or the ability to conduct the Conveyed Entities’ operations in the manner conducted as of the Closing and during the 12-

month period prior to the Closing; (iv) arises out of a change in the nature of the operations conducted at the relevant property as of the Closing Date from an industrial or a commercial use to a residential use; or (v) is caused by the negligent acts of Buyer or its Affiliates.

Section 9.1    No Other Representations or Warranties. Except as expressly set forth in Article III of this Agreement, no Seller nor any of their respective agents, employees or representatives have made, nor are any of them making any representation or warranty, express or implied, in respect of the Conveyed Entities, nor are any of them making any representation or warranty regarding the accuracy or completeness of any information provided to Buyer or Buyer’s agents, employees or representatives in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, and any such other representations or warranties are hereby expressly disclaimed. Without waiving or limiting its rights set forth in this Agreement, Buyer acknowledges that Buyer is relying on its own investigation and analysis in entering into this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions and Buyer has undertaken such investigation, and has been provided with and has evaluated such documents and information as it has deemed necessary in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. Without waiving or limiting its rights set forth in this Agreement, with respect to any projection or forecast delivered by or on behalf of the Sellers to Buyer, Buyer acknowledges that (v) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such projections and forecasts, (w) the accuracy and correctness of such projections and forecasts may be affected by information that may become available through discovery or otherwise after the date of such projections and forecasts, (x) such projections and forecasts have not been independently verified, reflect various assumptions and may not prove to be correct, (y) it is familiar with each of the foregoing and (z) such projections and forecasts shall not form the basis of any claim (including in contract or tort, at law or in equity under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) against Sellers or their agents, employees or representatives with respect thereto or with respect to any related matter. Buyer and Sellers acknowledge that each is an informed and sophisticated participant in the Transactions and this Agreement and related documents are the product of arms’ length negotiations.

Section 9.2    Choice of Law. This Agreement, and all claims, disputes, controversies or causes of action (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of, or relate to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity hereof, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or the Transactions, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York except for Laws governing conflicts of law (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law).

Section 9.3    Dispute Resolution.

(a)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.13, any Action between the Parties and or Cobham based upon, arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity hereof, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or the

Transactions, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise (a “Dispute”) shall be resolved as set forth in this Section 9.3.

(b)    Any Action in respect of any Dispute, including for any Action for a preliminary injunction to maintain the status quo or prevent irreparable harm, shall be brought exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, or if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, in any New York court situated in the County of New York (the “New York Courts”). By executing and delivering this Agreement, each of the Parties and Cobham hereto irrevocably (i) accepts generally and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York Courts for any Action arising from any Dispute; (ii) waives any objections which such Party or Cobham may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action contemplated by this Section 9.3(b) and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim that any such Action has been brought in an inconvenient forum; (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat the personal jurisdiction of the New York Courts by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (iv) agrees that it will not bring any Action contemplated by this Section 9.3(b) in any court other than the New York Courts; (v) agrees that service of all process, including the summons and complaint, in any Action may be made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to such Party or Cobham at their respective addresses provided in accordance with Section 9.4 or in any other manner permitted by Law; and (vi) agrees that service as provided in the preceding clause (v) is sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such Party or Cobham in the Action, and otherwise constitutes effective and binding service in every respect.

(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree and understand that any Dispute with respect to an Indemnified Party’s entitlement to indemnification under Article VIII shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.3.

Section 9.4    Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by e-mail (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

Section 9.8    Interpretation.

(a)    When a reference is made to an Article, Section, Schedule or Annex, such reference shall be to an Article, Section, Schedule or Annex of or to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

(b)    Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

(c)    Unless the context requires otherwise, words using the singular or plural number also include the plural or singular number, respectively, and the use of any gender herein shall be deemed to include the other genders. Terms defined in Section 1.1, or otherwise, using the singular may also be set forth using the plural (and when so used denote the plural of the defined term), and vice-versa.

(e)    All monetary figures shall be in United States dollars unless otherwise specified. Any payments to be made under this Agreement or any other agreement to be entered into pursuant to this Agreement by or to the Sellers or any of their Affiliates shall be in United States dollars. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, where any such payments are to be made and the underlying liability has been calculated in a currency other than United States dollars, the underlying liability shall be converted into United States dollars at the noon buying rate as quoted by the Wall Street Journal on the Business Day prior to the date of payment. For the purposes of determining whether the monetary limits referred to in Section 8.5 apply, liabilities in a currency other than United States dollars shall be converted into United States dollars at the noon buying rate as quoted by the Wall Street Journal on the Business Day prior to payment or discharge of such Losses by the Indemnifying Party.

(f)    The terms “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereto” and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement.

(h)    This Agreement was prepared jointly by the Parties hereto and no rule that it be construed against the drafter will have any application in its construction or interpretation.

Section 9.9    Precedence. To the extent there is any conflict between this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, this Agreement shall govern unless this Agreement or the applicable Transaction Document expressly states otherwise.

Section 9.10    Disclosure. The Seller Disclosure Schedule is incorporated into and forms an integral part of this Agreement. Any matter disclosed in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be considered disclosed with respect to each other Section of such Schedule to the extent such disclosure is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure, but only to the extent of such disclosure. The inclusion of information in any Section of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that such information is material or that such matter actually constitutes noncompliance with, or a violation of, any Law, Permit or Contract or other topic to which such disclosure is applicable.

Section 9.11    Waiver and Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written mutual agreement executed and delivered by the Sellers and Buyer. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any Party or Cobham to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the Party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligations, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

Section 9.12    No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties hereto and their permitted assigns and, except for Section 5.7 and Article VIII, nothing herein express or implied shall give or be construed to give to any Person, other than the Parties hereto and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder. This Agreement may only be enforced against the named Parties hereto and Cobham. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may be made only against the entities that are expressly identified as Parties hereto or Cobham, and no officer, director or employee of any Party hereto (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a Party hereto) shall have any liability or obligation with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action (whether in contract or tort) that may arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including a representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement).

Section 9.13    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES AND COBHAM HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN

CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT, THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR DOCUMENTS OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR DOCUMENTS.

Section 9.14    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof.

Section 9.15    Counterparts; Facsimile or PDF Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument binding upon all of the Parties hereto and Cobham notwithstanding the fact that all Parties and Cobham are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. For purposes of this Agreement, facsimile or PDF signatures shall be deemed originals.

Section 9.16    Remedies. The Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case without posting a bond or undertaking, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 9.17    No Right of Setoff. No Party hereto nor any Affiliate thereof may deduct from, set off, holdback or otherwise reduce in any manner whatsoever any amount owed to it hereunder against any amounts owed by the other Party hereto or any Affiliate of such Party.

Section 9.18    Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation; Non-Assertion of Attorney Client Privilege. Buyer waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause the Conveyed Entities to waive and to not assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to any representation, after the Closing, of the Sellers or any Affiliate of any Seller, or any of their respective officers, employees, directors or managers, in any matter exclusively involving this Agreement or the Transactions, by any legal counsel that has represented any such Party prior to the Closing. Buyer waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause the Conveyed Entities and each of its other Affiliates to waive and to not assert, any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication occurring on or prior to the Closing between any legal counsel and the Sellers, the Conveyed Entities, any other Affiliate of the Sellers, or any of their respective officers, employees, directors and managers exclusively relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, it being the intention of the Parties that all such rights to such attorney-client privilege and to control such attorney-client privilege shall be retained by each Seller, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, employees, directors or managers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event that dispute arises after the Closing between Buyer, any Conveyed Entity (or any of their Affiliates) and a third Person other than a party to this Agreement, Buyer, the applicable Conveyed Entity (or their applicable Affiliates) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure to such Person of confidential communications between legal counsel and such Conveyed Entity.

Section 9.19    Assignment; Binding Effect. This Agreement and the rights hereunder are not assignable unless such assignment is consented to in writing by both Buyer and the Sellers and, subject to the preceding clause, this Agreement and all the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, that Buyer may assign all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without such consent to any of its Affiliates, which assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder.

Section 9.20    Performance. Cobham agrees to take all action necessary to cause the Sellers to perform all of their respective agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement. Cobham unconditionally guarantees to Buyer the full and complete performance by the Sellers of their respective obligations under this Agreement and shall be liable for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of the Sellers under this Agreement. This is a guarantee of payment and performance and not of collectability. Cobham hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against the Sellers, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever in connection with the performance of its obligations set forth in this Section 9.20.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Stock Purchase Agreement to be executed the day and year first above written.
