(e) If Seller elects to dispute the Preliminary Statement or the calculations set forth thereon (any such disputed item being a “Disputed Item”):

(i) Seller will notify Buyer in writing within 45 days after Seller’s receipt of the Preliminary Statement, which notice will specify in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute with respect to any Disputed Item.

(ii) During the 45 day period following Buyer’s receipt of such notice, Buyer and Seller will attempt to resolve the dispute with respect to any such Disputed Items and to determine the final calculation of Closing Working Capital and the Purchase Price.

(iii) If, at the end of the 45 day period specified in subsection (d)(ii) above, Buyer and Seller will have failed to reach a written agreement with respect to all or any portion of such Disputed Items (those items that remain in dispute at the end of such period are the “Unresolved Items”), the Unresolved Items will be referred for resolution to PricewaterhouseCoopers (the “Neutral Auditors”) within ten days of the end of such period. If PricewaterhouseCoopers refuses or is otherwise unable to act as the Neutral Auditors, Seller and Buyer will cooperate in good faith to appoint another independent certified public accounting firm in the United States of national recognition mutually agreeable to Seller and Buyer, in which event “Neutral Auditors” will mean such firm. During the review by the Neutral Auditors, Seller and Buyer will each make available to the Neutral Auditors such individuals and such information, books, records and workpapers as may be reasonably required by the Neutral Auditors to fulfill its obligations hereunder.

(iv) Each party hereto agrees to execute, if requested by the Neutral Auditors, a reasonable engagement letter with the Neutral Auditors. The fees and expenses of the Neutral Auditors will be borne by Seller and Buyer in the same proportion that the dollar amount of Unresolved Items lost by a party bears to the total dollar amount of the Unresolved Items. Each party will bear the fees, costs and expenses of its own accountants and all of its other expenses in connection with matters contemplated by this Section 2.7(e)(iv). The Neutral Auditors will act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on the provisions of this Agreement and the presentations by Seller and Buyer, or representatives thereof, and not by independent review, only the resolution of the Unresolved Items. In resolving any Unresolved Item, the Neutral Auditors may not assign a value to such item greater than the greatest value for such item asserted by either party or less than the smallest value for such item asserted by either party. The parties will use reasonable efforts to cause the Neutral Auditors to issue their resolution within 30 days after the submission of the Unresolved Items to the Neutral Auditors. The Neutral Auditors’ resolution of the Unresolved Items will be set forth in a written statement delivered to Seller and Buyer. Such resolution will be deemed to be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller for all purposes of this Agreement and will be final and binding on, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto. Either party will be entitled to have judgment entered upon such resolution, in a manner consistent with such resolution, in any court having jurisdiction. If the Unresolved Items are resolved by the Neutral Auditors, the Final Closing Working Capital Statement will consist of the applicable amounts from the Preliminary Statement (or amounts otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller and Buyer) as to items that have not been submitted for resolution to the Neutral Auditors, and the amounts determined by the Neutral Auditors as to the Unresolved Items that were submitted for resolution by the Neutral Auditors. Any changes to the Preliminary Statement resulting from such resolution of the Unresolved Items will be made, and such Preliminary Statement, as so changed, will be the Final Closing Working Capital Statement for all purposes under this Agreement.

2.8 Post-Closing Adjustment Payment. The “Post-Closing Adjustment” will be an amount equal to the Closing Working Capital as set forth on the Final Closing Working Capital Statement minus the Estimated Working Capital. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive amount, then Buyer will pay to Seller the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative amount, then Seller will pay to Buyer the absolute value of the Post-Closing Adjustment.

2.9 Payment and Interest.

(a) Any payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.8 will be made within five days after the Final Closing Working Capital Statement has been finally determined in accordance with Section 2.7(d) or (e) hereof, by wire transfer to Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, of immediately available funds from such party to a designated account of such other party.

(b) The amount of any payment pursuant to Section 2.8 will bear interest from but not including the day on which the Closing occurs to and excluding the date of payment at a fixed per annum rate equal to the federal funds effective rate (as published by the Federal Reserve System) in effect on the date immediately prior to the date of payment plus one and one half percent (1.5%).

2.10 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place via electronic exchange of documents and signatures on the third Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the obligations of the parties set forth in Articles VI and VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction of those conditions) (or, if such date falls after the End Date, such earlier date after satisfaction of such conditions that is on or prior to the End Date), or at such other place or at such other time or on such other date as Seller and Buyer may mutually agree upon in writing. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”. The Closing will be effective at 11:59 P.M. California time on the Closing Date.

2.11 Closing Deliveries. At the Closing:

(c) Each party will deliver to the other such certificates and other documents required to be delivered by it at Closing under Articles VI or VII, as applicable.

2.12 Allocation of the Purchase Price. To the extent required or necessary under the applicable Law of any jurisdiction (including for this purpose to determine and allocate Transfer Taxes pursuant to Section 10.1) for the parties to agree on an allocation of a portion of the Purchase Price (including Assumed Liabilities to the extent such Assumed Liabilities constitute part of the Purchase Price for Tax purposes) to the Purchased Assets or the Business located in such jurisdiction, each of Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other and shall agree on a reasonable allocation of a portion of the Purchase Price to such Purchased Assets and shall, to the extent possible, memorialize such agreement in such documents as are utilized to effectuate the transfers of such Purchased Assets.

2.13 Designated Buyer. On or prior to the Closing, Buyer may select an entity (a “Designated Buyer”) to purchase and acquire the Purchased Assets. The Designated Buyer must execute and deliver to Seller a counterpart to this Agreement. Buyer and Designated Buyer will jointly and severally undertake the obligations and liabilities of Buyer under this Agreement.

Set forth in Section 3.10(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule is a list of any renewals, fee payments, filings of an affidavit or Patent application or any other action that is or will be required to be taken with respect to any of the Transferred IP that is Registered within 12 months from the Closing Date.

With respect to any Transferred IP of which Seller or its Affiliates is a joint owner or co-owner, there are no restrictions (by agreement with any third party joint owner or co-owner of such Transferred IP or otherwise) on Seller’s or its Affiliates’ exercise of the full scope of rights afforded a joint owner or co-owner of that type of Intellectual Property right under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which the Intellectual Property right exists.

(d) On the Closing Date, the rights in the Transferred IP conveyed to Buyer hereunder, together with the Intellectual Property rights being licensed to Buyer or that Buyer otherwise has the right to use under an Ancillary Agreement, will constitute all of the Intellectual Property rights necessary to operate the Business immediately after the Closing in substantially the same manner conducted by Seller in the 12 months prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing representation and warranty is not intended to be a representation regarding the absence of infringement or misappropriation, which is addressed in Section 3.10(e).

(e) The operation of the Business, including the design, development, use, import, export, manufacture, licensing, sale or other disposition of Business Products and the provision of service offerings, does not infringe, misappropriate or violate the Intellectual Property (other than Patents) of any Person or, to the Knowledge of Seller, the Patents of any Person and has not done so in the last two years. No claims have been asserted in writing against Seller or any of its Affiliates alleging that such operation or any Business Product or the provision of any service offerings infringes, misappropriates or violates the Intellectual Property rights of any Person.

(g) Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has granted or is obligated to grant to any third party any license or other right to any Transferred IP. To the extent Seller or any of its Affiliates has granted or is obligated to grant to any third party any license or other right to any Transferred IP, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates has granted or is obligated to grant to any such third party any ownership rights, exclusive rights or right to sublicense any such Transferred IP.

(h) All confidential information used or held for use in connection with the operation of the Business has at all times been maintained in confidence and otherwise in a manner that is customary in and consistent with Seller’s industry and the industry of the Business. Seller and its Affiliates have taken all reasonable actions (for example, entering into nondisclosure agreements and affixing notices) necessary to secure and maintain the secrecy of such confidential information as a trade secret and as is customary and consistent with Seller’s industry and the industry of the Business. No confidential information, trade secrets or other confidential Transferred IP have been disclosed by Seller or its Affiliates to any Person except pursuant to valid and appropriate non-disclosure or license agreements that have not been breached.

(i) All individuals, including members of management, employees, agents, consultants, and contractors, who have conceived or developed any Business Products or any Transferred IP either (i) were bona fide employees of Seller or an Affiliate of Seller in the United States and products or Intellectual property was created within the scope of such employee’s employment, or (ii) have executed appropriate instruments of assignment in favor of Seller or an Seller Affiliate as assignee that have conveyed to Seller or an Seller Affiliate ownership of all Intellectual Property thereby arising.

To the Knowledge of Seller, none of Seller or its Affiliates is in breach of any material terms or conditions of any Open Source Materials obligations related to Software included in any Business Product, Owned Business Software or service offering of the Business and material to the operation of the Business. None of Seller or any of its Affiliates or any other party acting on behalf of Seller or its Affiliates has disclosed or delivered to any third party, or permitted the disclosure or delivery to any escrow agent or other party of, any Source Code of any Owned Business Software.

3.11 Insurance. Section 3.11 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule provides a summary of the current insurance programs maintained by or for the benefit of all of Seller’s businesses, including all occurrence-based insurance programs of Seller or its Affiliates providing coverage to the Business (such occurrence-based policies, the “Occurrence-Based Policies”).

(a) Except as contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, for matters identified on Section 5.1 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, for matters consented to by Buyer in advance (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or as may otherwise be required by applicable Law, during the period from the date hereof to the Closing Date, Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to operate the Business in the ordinary course consistent with past practices, and use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the value of the Business as a going concern consistent with past practice, including by using commercially reasonable efforts to preserve intact its business organization, keep available the services of its current managers, officers and employees, preserve its relationships with customers, creditors and suppliers, maintain its books and records and comply in all material respects with applicable Law.

(c) Following the Closing, for so long as such Books and Records are retained by Buyer and Seller in accordance with Section 5.2(b), (i) upon reasonable prior written notice, (ii) except as determined in good faith to be appropriate to ensure compliance with any applicable Laws and subject to any applicable privileges (including the attorney-client privilege) and contractual confidentiality or privacy obligations, and (iii) solely if Buyer or Seller reasonably requires access to such Books and Records held by the other party in order to prepare a Tax Return for itself or its Affiliate or other purpose reasonably relating to the Excluded Assets or Excluded Liabilities with regard to Seller and the Purchased Assets and Purchased Liabilities with regard to Buyer, each party will (A) afford the other party and that party’s counsel, accountants and other representatives reasonable access, during regular business hours, to the employees and books and records of the Business, (B) furnish to the other party and its Affiliates such additional financial and other information regarding the Business and the Purchased Assets as Seller may from time to time reasonably request or the Excluded Assets as Buyer may from time to time reasonably request, and (C) make available to the requesting party those employees of the nonrequesting party whose assistance, expertise, testimony, notes and recollections or presence may be necessary to assist the requesting party in connection with its inquiries for any of the purposes referred to above, including the presence of such persons as witnesses in hearings or trials for such purposes; provided, however, that such investigation will not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Seller or any of its Affiliates. If so requested by Buyer or Seller, the parties will enter into a customary joint defense agreement with respect to any information to be provided pursuant to this Section 5.2(c). All requests for information made pursuant to this Section 5.2(c) will be directed to an executive officer of the nonrequesting party, or such person as may be designated by that nonrequesting party.

Within five business days of the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Buyer with copies of any DRN in effect and a list of custodians who are subject to its terms, which Buyer shall hold in confidence and shall use exclusively for purposes of compliance with this Section 5.2(d). Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that Seller’s provision of the DRN to Buyer is made in confidence and without any intent to waive any aspect of the Seller’s attorney-client privilege.

Each of Buyer and Seller will disclose the Confidential Information of the other party only to its Affiliates and Representatives who require such material for Permitted Uses and will inform such Representatives of the obligations of this Section 5.2 with respect to such information. Each of Buyer and Seller will direct its Representatives and Affiliates to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section 5.2, and be responsible and liable for any breach of the provisions of this Section 5.2 by it, its Representatives or its Affiliates. The confidentiality obligations of this Section 5.2(e) shall apply (x) indefinitely to Trade Secrets and (y) for a period of two years after the Closing to Confidential Information that is not a Trade Secret. Nothing in the terms of this Section 5.2(e) shall limit the Parties’ rights and obligations as set forth in the Intellectual Property Cross-License Agreement.

(f) From and after the Closing, the provisions of Section 5.2(e) above will not apply to or restrict in any manner Buyer’s use of any Confidential Information of Seller relating to any of the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller will disclose any Confidential Information of Seller relating to any of the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities in reliance on the exceptions in clauses (ii) or (iii) above.

Seller and Buyer will cooperate with the reasonable requests of the other in seeking promptly to obtain all such authorizations, consents, orders and approvals and the issuance, reissuance or transfer (to the extent permitted by Law) of Permits. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall take any action that would reasonably be expected to have the effect of delaying, impairing or impeding the receipt of any required authorizations, consents, waivers, orders or approvals.

(i) Each of Seller and Buyer has made an appropriate filing of a notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and agrees to supply as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act.

No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting or discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any such filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties hereto in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the other parties hereto the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreements and to Section 5.2(g), the parties to this Agreement will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties hereto may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act (and any similar Law in any other relevant non-U.S. jurisdiction). Nothing in this Section 5.3(a)(ii) shall be applicable to Tax matters.

(iii) Without limiting the obligations of Buyer and Seller in Section 5.3(a)(i), Buyer and Seller shall each use its reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any third party or Governmental Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements under the HSR Act and any similar Law in any other relevant non-U.S. jurisdiction.

(b) Each party to this Agreement agrees to reasonably cooperate and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain each third party Consent that may be required by the terms of the applicable Contract in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

5.4 Marks.

(a) Buyer acknowledges that, from and after the Closing Seller and its Affiliates will have and retain the absolute and exclusive proprietary right to all of Seller’s and such Affiliates’ respective Trademarks, including all Trademarks incorporating “GE” or “GE Aviation” by itself or in combination with any other mark (collectively, the “Seller Marks”), and that none of the rights thereto or goodwill represented thereby or pertaining thereto are being transferred hereby or in connection herewith. Following the Closing Date, Buyer will not, nor will it permit its Affiliates to, use any Seller Marks in or on any of its or their properties, literature, sales materials or products or otherwise in connection with the sale of any products or services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and its Affiliates may continue to distribute Business Products and products that the Business produces after the Closing Date that include or display the Seller Marks (including as a result of the use of a mold or die used by the Business in which Seller Marks are embedded) and use and reproduce advertising materials, packaging, documentation, Software, stationery, forms, labels and other similar materials included in the Purchased Assets, in each case, for a period of not more than 18 months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that if, in connection with any change to, or discontinuance of, the use of any Seller Marks in connection with any particular Business Products or other materials, the approval of a Governmental Entity is required or any customer Contract requires the approval of the applicable customer, then Buyer may continue to use such Seller Marks in connection with such Business Products or other materials until such approval is obtained. Buyer will diligently pursue such approvals. In addition, Buyer will have no obligation to modify or update any Business Products distributed prior to the Closing Date to remove or prevent the continued inclusion or display of the Seller Marks.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer and its Affiliates shall have the right, at all times after the Closing Date, to (i) retain and use (solely for internal business purposes) records and other documents and materials containing or referencing the Seller Marks as such records, documents and materials exist as of the Closing Date, and (ii) use the Seller Marks to refer to the historical fact the Business was previously conducted under the Seller Marks.

5.5 Employee Matters.

(a) Neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will make (i) any offer of employment to any individual to become a Business Employee or (ii) any change in status concerning promotion, transfer, termination without “cause” or any increase in any compensation of any employee exclusively engaged in the Business (each, a “Business Employee”) outside the ordinary course of business, without the consent of Buyer. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Business Employees shall continue to be employed by Seller until the day before the Transfer Date pursuant to the Employee Services Agreement.

(b) Effective as of the Transfer Date, Buyer will offer comparable employment as a successor employer to all unrepresented Business Employees (except for the Retained Employee) who are actively employed (including employees on vacation, holiday, jury duty, or other similar absence) by Seller or any of its Affiliates immediately prior to the Transfer Date. Buyer also shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, offer re-instatement or employment as a successor employer, as the case may be, to each unrepresented Business Employee who is not actively employed immediately prior to the Transfer Date and who has a right of reinstatement pursuant to Seller policy or applicable Law (collectively, “Inactive Contract Employees”), in each case promptly upon his or her return from any leave or other absence. All Business Employees to whom Buyer offers employment and who accept such employment are herein referred to as the “Hired Employees,” and any Inactive Contract Employee shall be treated as a Hired Employee upon his or her return to, or commencement of active employment with, Buyer or its Affiliates. For purposes of this Section 5.5(b), “comparable employment as a successor employer” means such material terms and conditions as are necessary to avoid a claim for severance benefits. Seller hereby acknowledges that Buyer providing the terms and conditions described in clauses (i), (v) and (vi) of this Section 5.5(b) and Section 5.5(c), as well as the same principal work location and with substantially equivalent duties as in effect immediately prior to the Transfer Date, will constitute “comparable employment as a successor employer” as described herein.

(i) For the period starting on the Transfer Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, each unrepresented Hired Employee shall be entitled to receive while in the employ of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates the same or similar base salary or wage rate, and (to the extent any such Hired Employee was provided incentive compensation and bonus opportunities by Seller prior to the Transfer Date) amount of incentive compensation and bonus opportunities as provided by Seller immediately prior to the Transfer Date. In addition, Buyer shall provide each unrepresented Hired Employee, for the period starting on the Transfer Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date while in the employ of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, with substantially equivalent employee benefits having a comparable aggregate employer-provided value to all benefits provided to such individual under the applicable Seller Benefit Plans in effect immediately prior to the Transfer Date; provided that (A) for purposes of this covenant, stock options and other equity awards shall be disregarded and (B) this provision does not oblige Buyer to provide defined benefit pension benefits for such unrepresented Hired Employees. Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer’s benefits program in the aggregate as disclosed to Seller and described in Schedule 5.5(b)(i) satisfies the standard set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

(ii) The employment of the unrepresented Hired Employees will be “at-will.”

(iii) Effective as of the Transfer Date, Buyer will offer employment to all represented Business Employees under the terms and conditions outlined in the Collective Bargaining Agreement identified on Section 3.15(g) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule with any labor organization representing Business Employees. Effective on the Transfer Date, Buyer will assume the Collective Bargaining Agreement set forth in Section 3.15(g) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule and all represented Business Employees shall be treated as Hired Employees. Buyer shall establish a new defined benefit pension plan (the “Buyer’s Pension Plan”) that would have the same benefit multiplier and other terms and conditions regarding vesting and eligibility to participate and receive benefits that are the same as those contained in the GE Mechanical Systems-Los Angeles Pension Plan for UAW Local 509 Hourly Employees (“GE Local 509 Plan”) in such manner as to comply with the Collective Bargaining Agreement with respect to employment on and after the Transfer Date; provided, however, that Seller agrees to amend the GE Local 509 Plan effective on and after the Transfer Date to treat Buyer and any member of a group under common control with Buyer for purposes of Section 414(b) or (c) of the Code as an “Employer” solely with respect to determining the eligibility of any represented Hired Employees on or after the Transfer Date for a disability retirement pension under the GE Local 509 Plan. Buyer shall also, for the duration of the current Collective Bargaining Agreement on and after the Transfer Date, make employer matching contributions under a plan qualified under sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code with respect to represented Hired Employees at the rate of 50% of the first 6% of compensation contributed to such plan by any such employee.

(iv) Effective as of the Transfer Date, Seller shall pay any Hired Employee the appropriate accrued amounts of sick leave pay, vacation pay or other paid time off of such Hired Employees, as required by applicable Law.

(v) Notwithstanding anything contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall or shall cause its Affiliates to, provide severance benefits to any unrepresented Hired Employee who is laid off or made redundant or during the period starting on the Transfer Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date in an amount that is equal to the severance benefits (including severance payments, transition payments and continued health coverage) that the employee would have been entitled to pursuant to and under circumstances consistent with the terms of the applicable Seller Benefit Plans as in effect on the Closing Date.

(vi) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, waive limitations on benefits relating to any pre-existing conditions of the Hired Employees and their eligible spouses and dependents (but only to the extent such pre-existing condition limitations were waived under the Seller Benefit Plans as of the Transfer Date). Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, recognize for purposes of annual deductible and out-of-pocket limits under their health plans applicable to Hired Employees, deductible and out-of-pocket expenses paid by Hired Employees and their respective spouses and dependents under Seller’s or any of its Affiliates’ health plans in 2013.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in the Employee Services Agreement, Hired Employees will cease active participation in any Seller Benefit Plan (other than the Assumed Plans) and will commence participation in employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements offered by Buyer (“Buyer Benefit Plans”) effective as of 11:59 p.m. local time on the day immediately before the Transfer Date. Such Hired Employees will be given credit under Buyer Benefit Plans for all service prior to the Transfer Date with Seller (to the extent credit was given by Seller) for purposes of eligibility, vesting and, to the extent applicable, calculation of vacation or other paid time off, or severance benefits; provided, however, that such service will not be credited for purposes of benefit accruals under any such Buyer Benefit Plans (other than for vacation, other paid time off or severance benefits).

(d) Seller has satisfied its obligation under applicable labor law with respect to represented Business Employees regarding the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has not received any request on behalf of such represented Business Employees to engage in any bargaining relating to such contemplated transactions.

(e) Effective as of the Transfer Date, Buyer shall assume sponsorship of and all obligations under, liabilities with respect to, and assets (if any) with respect to, the Seller Benefit Plans set forth on Section 5.5(e) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Assumed Plans”) provided, however, that Seller will remain responsible for (i) any uninsured liabilities under the Assumed Plans applicable to individuals who as of the Closing Date are former employees of Seller and (ii) any claims incurred and unpaid under the Assumed Plans prior to the Closing with respect to any self-insured Assumed Plan. Seller shall take all actions necessary to transfer such sponsorship and assets (if any) to Buyer as of the Transfer Date and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller in connection therewith. Prior to the Transfer Date, Seller shall cause the members of any committee charged with administrative and/or fiduciary responsibility with respect to any of the Assumed Plans to relinquish their membership in such committee effective as of the Transfer Date. Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, appoint all administrators, fiduciaries and others responsible for the Assumed Plans on and after the Transfer Date.

(f) Nothing in this Section 5.5 shall (i) confer any rights upon any person, including any current or former employees of the Seller, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, (ii) constitute or create an employment agreement, or (iii) constitute or be treated as the amendment, modification or adoption of any employee benefit plan of the Seller or any of its Affiliates.

5.6 GE FSA Plans. With respect to any Hired Employee who was a participant during 2013 in a health or dependent care flexible spending account plan maintained by GE or one of its Affiliates (collectively, the “GE FSA Plans”): (i) if Buyer or one of its Affiliates maintains a general purpose health flexible spending account plan (a “GPHFSA Plan”), Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, effect a FSA Transfer (as defined below) of the Hired Employee’s account (if any) under the GE GPHFSA Plan to the GPHFSA Plan of Buyer or one of its Affiliates; (ii) if Buyer or one of its Affiliates maintains a limited purpose health flexible spending account plan (a “LPHFSA Plan”), Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, effect a FSA Transfer (as defined below) of the Hired Employee’s account (if any) under the GE LPHFSA Plan to the LPHFSA Plan of Buyer or one of its Affiliates; and (iii) if Buyer or one of its Affiliates maintains a dependent care flexible spending account plan (a “DCFSA Plan”), Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, effect a FSA Transfer (as defined below) of the Hired Employee’s account (if any) under the GE DCFSA Plan to the DCFSA Plan of Buyer or one of its Affiliates.

5.10 Assignment of Certain Purchased Assets.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to convey, assign, transfer or deliver to Buyer any Contract or Permit or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery thereof, or an agreement to do any of the foregoing, without the Consent of a third party (including any Governmental Entity), would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or a violation of Law or would in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer (as assignee or transferee of Seller, or otherwise) thereto or thereunder. Subject to the last sentence of Section 5.3(a)(iv) and except as set forth on Section 5.10 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, Seller will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any Consent necessary for the conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery of any such Contract or Permit, claim, right or benefit to Buyer. If, on the Closing Date, any such consent is not obtained, or if an attempted conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery thereof or performance thereof by Buyer would be ineffective or a violation of Law or would adversely affect the rights of Buyer thereto or thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, Seller and Buyer will cooperate in a mutually acceptable arrangement under which Buyer would, in compliance with Law, obtain the benefits and assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with such Contract or Permit, claim, right or benefit in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Buyer, or under which Seller would enforce for the benefit (and at the expense) of Buyer any and all of its rights against a third party (including any Governmental Entity) associated with such Purchased Asset, claim, right or benefit (collectively, “Third Party Rights”), and Seller would promptly pay to Buyer when received all monies received by them under any such Contract or Permit, claim, right or benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Contract or Permit shall be conveyed, assigned, transferred and delivered to Buyer upon receipt of the requisite consent unless such attempted contribution, conveyance, assignment, transfer or delivery thereof would be ineffective or a violation of Law or would adversely affect the rights of Buyer.

(b) Where the Consent of a third party (including any Governmental Entity) is required to assign or novate a Government Contract to Buyer, until such time as the parties obtain the necessary Consent for such assignment or novation, Buyer shall perform as a subcontractor to Seller any and all obligations and provide any and all services and other performance obligations, including requirements to comply with all applicable statutes and regulations, under such Government Contract. Buyer agrees to pay, perform and discharge and indemnify and hold Seller harmless from any obligation and liability of Seller arising after the Closing Date and relating to such performance or failure to perform under such Government Contracts after the Closing Date, without derogation, however, of Buyer’s indemnity rights under Article IX.

(c) Buyer agrees and acknowledges that Shared Contracts shall not constitute Purchased Assets and shall not be assigned by Seller or any of its Affiliates to Buyer.  With respect to any Shared Contract, Seller shall, following the date hereof and continuing after the Closing Date, cooperate with Buyer in any reasonable manner in connection with Buyer’s efforts to, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, obtain the agreement of the other party or parties to any such Shared Contract to enter into a separate agreement (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer) with Buyer with respect to the matters covered by such Shared Contract pertaining to the Business; provided, that subject to compliance with the foregoing, none of Seller or any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to Buyer under this Agreement arising out of or relating to Buyer’s (or its Affiliates’) failure to obtain any such separate agreement.  If, on the Closing Date, such separate agreement between Buyer and the other party or parties to such Shared Contract is not obtained, Seller and Buyer will cooperate in a mutually acceptable arrangement under which Buyer would, in compliance with Law and such Shared Contracts, obtain the benefits and assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with that portion of each such Shared Contract that pertains to the Business, in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to Buyer; provided, that subject to compliance with the foregoing, none of Seller or any of its Affiliates shall have any liability to Buyer under this Agreement arising out of or relating to Buyer’s (or its Affiliates’) inability to provide the benefits and the obligations of the applicable portion of any such Shared Contract to Buyer.  To the extent that any Liability related to any Shared Contract arises after the Closing out of the negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of Seller or its Affiliates, on the one hand, or Buyer or its Affiliates on the other hand, then the party causing the Liability will indemnify and hold the other party harmless from and against any such Liability. Nothing contained in Section 5.10 shall affect, prejudice, reduce, modify or foreclose Buyer’s indemnification rights under Article IX for breach by Seller of any representation or warranty contained in Article III or the covenants set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.3(b).

5.11 Intercompany Obligations. Seller shall take such action and make, or cause to be made, such payments as may be necessary so that, as of the Closing Date, there shall be no Intercompany Accounts Receivable or Intercompany Accounts Payable (other than Intercompany Trade Receivables, Intercompany Trade Payables or obligations or rights pursuant to Business Contracts set forth on Section 5.11 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule) in effect or outstanding.

5.12 Non-Solicitation.

During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is one year after the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), GE Aviation, including any Controlled Subsidiary within GE Aviation, will not (i) directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of or hire any Hired Employees or (ii) induce, solicit or encourage any other Affiliate of Seller, including GE, to directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of or hire any Hired Employees, but only for so long as such Hired Employees are employed by Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer.

(b) During the Restricted Period neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates controlled by Buyer will, directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of or hire any officer or key employee of Seller or its Affiliates (other than Hired Employees) with whom, or to whom, Buyer or its Affiliates were introduced to or became in contact with in connection with the sale of the Business (other than Hired Employees), but only for so long as such officer or employee is employed by Seller or any of its Affiliates.

(c) The phrase “solicit the employment of” (or, other than with respect to any person listed on Section 5.12(c) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, any hiring resulting from such solicitation) shall not be deemed to include general solicitations of employment not directed toward employees of Seller, Buyer or their respective Affiliates.

5.13 Non-Competition.

(a) During the Non-Compete Period and in the Restricted Region, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates controlled by, or forming a part of, GE Aviation will (i) manage, operate, engage in, or own directly or indirectly any Equity Interests in any Person engaged in (A) the Business or (B) the business of designing, developing, operating, manufacturing, marketing, servicing and selling thrust reverser actuation systems (a “TRAS Business”), or (ii) actively assist any other party to compete with Buyer in the Business or in a TRAS Business.

(b) For the purpose of this Section 5.13, “Buyer” will include its subsidiaries, divisions and Affiliates as they may exist from time to time, and its successors and assigns, including any Person succeeding to title to the goodwill of the Business or the Purchased Assets from Buyer.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section 5.13(a), and without implicitly agreeing that the following activities would be subject to the provisions of Section 5.13(a), nothing in this Agreement shall preclude, prohibit or restrict Seller or any other Person that is a part of GE Aviation from engaging in any manner in any (i) Financial Services Business, (ii) Existing Business Activities, (iii) De Minimis Business or (iv) business activity that would otherwise violate Section 5.13(a) that is acquired from any Person (an “After-Acquired Business”) or is carried on by any Person that is acquired by or combined with Seller or any of their Affiliates in each case after the Closing (an “After-Acquired Company”); provided that with respect to this clause (iv), so long as within eighteen (18) months after the consummation of the purchase or other acquisition of the After-Acquired Business or the After-Acquired Company, Seller or such other Person, as applicable, signs a definitive agreement to dispose of, and subsequently disposes of, the relevant portion of the business or securities of the After-Acquired Business or the After-Acquired Company or at the expiration of such eighteen (18) month period the business of the After-Acquired Business or the After-Acquired Company complies with this Section 5.13; provided however, that no such disposition shall be required to the extent the revenue from the competing portion of the business of the After-Acquired Business or After-Acquired Company is less than both (a) $15,000,000 and (b) 15% of the aggregate revenue of such After-Acquired Business or After-Acquired Company for the fiscal year immediately preceding the measurement date.

(d) If at any time the provisions of this Section 5.13 will be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to area, duration or scope of activity, this Section 5.13 will be considered divisible and will become and be immediately amended to only such area, duration and scope of activity as will be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter; and this Section 5.13 as so amended will be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.

5.14 Seller Support Arrangements. From and after the date hereof, the parties hereto will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the termination of, and full release of Seller and its Affiliates from any and all obligations arising under, the Seller Support Arrangements. To the extent necessary to facilitate the termination of the Seller Support Arrangements, Buyer (or a Subsidiary or other Affiliate of Buyer) will use commercially reasonable efforts to substitute its own obligations for those of Seller and its Affiliates under any Seller Support Arrangement as soon as reasonably practicable without derogation of Buyer’s indemnity rights under Article IX. Following Closing, Buyer will indemnify Seller and its Affiliates from any Liabilities that are not Excluded Liabilities under any Seller Support Arrangement.

In anticipation of the taking or purchase by the Authority of the Current Parking Lot, Buyer shall develop plans (or leverage those plans already being established by Seller) (the “Plans”) for the construction of a replacement parking lot on the Owned Real Property, as well as any additional capital work to the Owned Real Property which is required by Law or is reasonably required in connection with the replacement of the Current Parking Lot and the reasonable establishment of such replacement parking lot for use on the Owned Property and in all cases results directly from the taking by the Authority of the Current Parking Lot or the construction of the replacement parking lot on the Owned Property (collectively, the “Work”). The Plans shall be accompanied by a proposed budget (the “Budget”) with respect to the Work. The Plans and the Budget shall be subject to the review and approval by the Seller, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that if Seller shall fail to approve or disapprove of such Plans and Budget within forty-five (45) days after receipt thereof, Seller shall be deemed to have consent to such Plans and Budget in the form so submitted. The parties acknowledge and agree that as a result of the anticipated timing of the Proposed Condemnation, Buyer shall have the right to begin reasonable development of the Plans and Budget promptly after the date of this Agreement and in the event the Proposed Condemnation (or a settlement thereof that results in the taking of the Current Parking Lot) is not consummated, Seller shall (i) promptly notify Buyer when Seller becomes aware that the Current Parking Lot will not be sold or taken and (ii) have the obligation to reimburse Buyer for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with the preparation of the Plans and Budget prior to the date Buyer receives such notice.

The contractor shall only use materials which are of the same quality materials as is currently found at the Current Parking Lot and at the Owned Real Property, provided that Seller shall not be responsible for any materials or construction which is of a higher quality than the materials currently used at the Parking Lot and Owned Real Property. Buyer shall bid out the Work to no less than three contractors, provided that Buyer shall keep Seller informed of all bids received. Buyer shall be responsible for obtaining all permits and approvals with respect to the Work.

Seller shall pay Buyer such amounts no later than thirty (30) days after Buyer’s demand therefor, which demand shall be accompanied by a written invoice detailing the costs so expensed. Seller’s indemnification obligations under this Section 5.27 shall terminate upon the first to occur: (x) completion of the Work in accordance with the Plans and payment by Seller in accordance with the preceding sentence or (y) an announcement or other statement by the Authority that it no longer plans to proceed with the taking.

5.29 Allocation of Pre-Closing Infringement Damages; Retained Right to Assert Transferred IP.

(a) If, in any action to enforce the Transferred IP, Buyer receives any damages or other compensation relating to infringement, violation, misappropriation or other unauthorized use of the Transferred IP that occurred prior to Closing (“Pre-Closing Damages”), Buyer shall promptly pay Seller such Pre-Closing Damages to Seller, minus an amount equal to the percentage of the total costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in such action (including attorney fees) corresponding to the percentage of the total damages and other compensation relating to infringement, violation, misappropriation or other unauthorized use of the Transferred IP received by Buyer in such action that is represented by the Pre-Closing Damages. For example, if in such an action Buyer were to receive $1,000 in total damages and other compensation of which $500 are Pre-Closing Damages and Buyer were to have incurred $750 in total costs and expenses, then the amount to be paid by Buyer to Seller would be $500 — ((500/1000) x $750) or $125.

(b) Following the Closing, Seller shall be entitled to assert claims of infringement, violation, misappropriation or other unauthorized use of the Transferred IP based on actions that occurred prior to Closing, but solely in response to any claim or suit first brought by any Person against Seller or its Affiliates for infringement, violation, misappropriation or unauthorized use of Intellectual Property, provided, however, that Seller (i) shall promptly notify Buyer in writing, prior to responding to such claim or suit and (ii) shall not enter into any settlement or compromise of any such claim or suit that affects or concerns the validity, enforceability or ownership of any Transferred IP without the prior written consent of Buyer, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(a) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller;

(b) by either Buyer or Seller, upon at least two Business Days prior written notice to the other party, if the Closing has not occurred on or before December 31, 2012 (the “End Date”); provided, however, that (i) the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) will not be available to any party that has failed to comply with its obligations hereunder in any manner that will have proximately contributed to the failure of the Closing to occur by the End Date, and (ii) if the only condition that has not been satisfied by the End Date is that set forth in Sections 6.5 and 7.5, the End Date shall automatically be extended to February 15, 2013;

(c) by either Buyer or Seller, if any Governmental Entity will have issued, enacted, entered, promulgated or enforced any Governmental Order that prohibits the sale of the Purchased Assets or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements and such Governmental Order will have become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(c) will not be available to any party that has failed to comply with its obligations hereunder in any manner that will have proximately contributed to the occurrence of such Governmental Order;

(d) by Buyer by written notice to Seller if there has been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Seller in this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Article VI and such breach has not been cured by Seller by the earlier of ten Business Days of Seller’s receipt of written notice of such breach from Buyer which notice will specify in reasonable detail the nature of such breach, and the End Date, provided that there is not then a breach of, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Article VII; and

ARTICLE IX

INDEMNIFICATION

9.1 Indemnification. Subject to the limitations, terms and conditions set forth in this Article IX, after the Closing,

(a) Seller will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, stockholders and employees of Buyer and such Affiliates (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”), from and against, and pay or reimburse, as the case may be, the Buyer Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses, whether or not resulting from any third party claims, incurred or suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in this Agreement;

(ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Seller or its Affiliates under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement;

(iii) any Excluded Liability; and

(iv) any Liability arising from the transfer or termination of any Business Employee in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Buyer will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates, and the respective officers, directors, stockholders and employees of Seller and such Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”), from and against, and pay and reimburse, as the case may be, the Seller Indemnified Parties for, any and all Losses, whether or not resulting from any third party claims, incurred or suffered by Seller Indemnified Parties arising out of:

(i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement;

(ii) any breach or nonfulfillment of any covenant or obligation of Buyer or its Affiliates under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; and

(iii) any Assumed Liability.

9.2 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, a Person that is entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party or parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing (such written notice, an “Indemnification Certificate”) of any pending or threatened claim, demand or circumstance for which the Indemnified Party has determined to seek indemnification under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”), describing in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim, demand or circumstance; provided, however, that the failure to provide such Indemnification Certificate shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually and prejudiced by such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Indemnification Certificate or other notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be delivered (and no such claim should be made or brought) after the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 9.3(a) for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

(b) Upon receipt of an Indemnification Certificate for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.2(a), with respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense of such claim and shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver written notice of such election to the Indemnified Party (an “Assumption Notice”), which notice may contain an acknowledgement of liability (an “Acknowledgement”) to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to Losses relating to such Third Party Claim, subject to the limitations on such liability set forth in this Article IX. The Party that shall control the defense of any such Third Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) shall select counsel, contractors and consultants of recognized standing and competence after consultation with the other party and shall take all steps reasonably necessary in the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim. Each of Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Representatives to, cooperate fully with the Controlling Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim involving solely money damages without the consent of any Indemnified Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement (subject to Sections 9.3 and 9.5, if applicable), (ii) not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to, bind or materially adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (iii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim. In no event shall an Indemnified Party consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if the Indemnifying Party is the Controlling Party and has complied with its obligations pursuant to this Section 9.2(b).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of the defense of any Third Party Claim (i) to the extent that the object of such Third Party Claim is to obtain an injunction, restraining order, declaratory relief or other non-monetary relief (including criminal penalties) against the Indemnified Party, (ii) if the named parties to any such action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and the former shall have been advised in writing by counsel (with a copy to the Indemnifying Party) that there are one or more legal or equitable defenses available to them that are different from or additional to those available to Indemnifying Party, or any other conflict, or (iii) if such action or proceeding involves, or could reasonably be expected to involve, Liability that would constitute a Material Adverse Effect with respect to the business of the Indemnified Party; provided, further, that to exercise such rights the Indemnifying Party must give notice to the Indemnified Person within 30 days after receipt of any Indemnification Certificate whether it is assuming control of and appointing lead counsel for such defense. If the Indemnifying Party does not give such notice within such 30-day period, or does not diligently defend the claim therefore, then the Indemnified Party shall have the right to assume control of the defense thereof at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, with periodic reimbursement of expenses, subject to the limitations of Liability and other limits set forth in this Article IX.

(d) “Defense Costs” means all costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, filing fees and costs of investigation, incurred in connection with defense of the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party with respect to a Third Party Claim. This subsection (d) sets forth the default allocation of Defense Costs solely to the extent Buyer and Seller cannot agree as to which party shall bear responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim or ultimate liability in respect of such Third Party Claim and, as a result, each of Buyer and Seller retains its own counsel in respect of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will each pay their respective Defense Costs in connection with any Third Party Claim, except, if the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim with respect to which it has received an Indemnification Certificate or it does not include an Acknowledgement in its Assumption Notice, then the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for (i) the amount of the Indemnified Party’s Defense Costs (and, in the event the Indemnifying Party delivers such Acknowledgment, only such amount of Defense Costs up to the date on which an Acknowledgement is delivered to the Indemnified Party) multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (A) the amount payable or paid by the Indemnifying Party in settlement or awarded in a final, non-appealable judgment pursuant to any indemnity claim asserted by the Indemnified Party under this Article IX with respect to such Third-Party Claim (excluding any Defense Costs), divided by (B) the aggregate amount payable or paid in settlement or awarded in a final, non-appealable judgment by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party to any third party with respect to such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that if the quotient determined in accordance with clause (ii) is less than 0.5, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be responsible for reimbursement of any portion of the Indemnified Party’s Defense Costs.

9.3 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) The indemnification obligations of the parties hereto under:

(i) Section 9.1(a)(i) (other than for any breach of Sections 3.1(a), 3.2(a), 3.2(b)(i)(A) and (B), 3.2(b)(ii), 3.6, the second sentence of Section 3.8, the first sentence of Section 3.10(c) or Section 3.20 (collectively, the “Fundamental Representations”) or Sections 3.3, 3.5, 3.7(a) or the first sentence of Section 3.10(d)) and Section 9.1(b)(i) (other than for any breach of Sections 4.1(a) or 4.2(a)) will survive until the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date;

(ii) Section 9.1(a)(i) with respect to any breach of Sections 3.5 will survive until 30 days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extensions or waivers thereof);

(iii) Section 9.1(a)(i) with respect to any breach of Section 3.7(a), the first sentence of Section 3.10(d), a Fundamental Representation, Section 9.1(a)(iii), Section 9.1(a)(iv), Section 9.1(a)(v), Section 9.1(b)(i) with respect to any breach of Sections 4.1 or 4.2, and Section 9.1(b)(iii) will survive indefinitely; and

(iv) Sections 9.1(a)(ii) and 9.1(b)(ii), with respect to (A) covenants and agreements of the parties hereto contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing, shall survive until the first to occur of three years after the final date of required performance of such covenant if specified herein, or the statute of limitations applicable to any breach of such covenants and agreements and (B) covenants and agreements of the parties hereto that by their terms apply or are to be performed at or prior to the Closing shall survive until the date that is 18 months after the Closing.

(the applicable date for each representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, being the “Indemnification Expiration Date”); provided that, in each case, all such obligations will survive with respect to, and to the extent of, any claim for which an Indemnification Certificate will have been delivered to the Indemnifying Party prior to the applicable Indemnification Expiration Date until such claim will have been finally resolved in accordance with the terms of this Article IX. A Buyer Indemnified Party’s knowledge, prior to the Closing Date, of any inaccuracy in, or breach or non-fulfillment of, any representation, warranty or covenant made by Seller hereunder will not derogate such Buyer Indemnified Party’s rights or remedies after the Closing with respect to indemnification by Seller in respect of any such inaccuracy, breach or non-fulfillment; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply if and to the extent that a Buyer Indemnified Party has knowledge as of the date of this Agreement of a breach of Seller’s representations and warranties based upon information not known by Seller or its Affiliates.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party under Section 9.1(a)(i) as to matters arising under Section 3.17 or under Section 9.1(a)(iii) as to matters relating to Section 2.4(i) and 2.4(j) (an “Environmental Loss”) to the extent that such Environmental Loss results from, and would not have arisen but for: (i) any environmental sampling, testing or remediation of soil, surface water, or groundwater in, at, on, under or within any portion of the Real Property, (“Environmental Activity”) conducted by, on behalf of, at the direction of, or allowed by, any Buyer Indemnified Party after the Closing Date other than: (A) in response to an immediate, imminent and substantial threat to human health or the Environment; (B) required by a relevant Governmental Entity; (C) required by applicable Environmental Law or Environmental Permit issued thereunder; (D) necessary in connection with any bona fide construction or expansion of the improvements or necessary utility or maintenance activities at the Owned Real Property; (E) necessary to defend a claim by a third party against any Buyer Indemnified Party; (F) agreed to in writing by Seller (including with respect to the Known Environmental Conditions); (G) in connection with the eminent domain proceeding disclosed on Section 3.8 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule; or (H) as undertaken by a bona fide prospective purchaser who has signed a contract with any Buyer Indemnified Party for the transfer of the Owned Real Property or any portion thereof, provided that Buyer used commercially reasonable efforts to contractually obligate such prospective purchaser to agree to the same or substantially similar restrictions on Environmental Activity as agreed to by Buyer in Section 9.3(b)(i) (A)-(G) hereof (but without regard to Buyer’s ability to successfully obligate a prospective purchaser to agree to such restrictions on Environmental Activity after using commercially reasonable efforts); (ii) a material change in the use of the Owned Real Property on or after the Closing Date to a non-industrial use except for any change in use that may occur in connection with activities contemplated by the eminent domain proceeding disclosed on Section 3.8 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule; (iii) conducting any investigation or remediation of soil and/or groundwater at the Real Property beyond the minimum applicable standards acceptable to the relevant Governmental Entity or required under Environmental Law; or (iv) any negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Buyer Indemnified Party after the Closing Date that exacerbates any environmental condition, including the presence of Hazardous Materials, at the Owned Real Property existing prior to the Closing Date (including the Known Environmental Conditions), provided, however, that in the case of 9.3(b)(ii), (iii) and (iv), Seller’s indemnity obligations shall be reduced and/or negated only to the extent that the Environmental Loss is attributable to such change in use, amount such investigation or remediation is above minimum applicable standards, or such exacerbation. Furthermore, Seller acknowledges that it may not assert that a Buyer Indemnified Party is in breach of its duty to mitigate under Section 9.6 by virtue of such Buyer Indemnified Party failing to undertake any environmental sampling or testing of the Environment in circumstances where 9.3(b)(i)(A)-(H) do not apply.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 9.2 with respect to third party claims, Seller shall have the right, but not the obligation, to direct, manage and control any Environmental Activity at the Owned Real Property that is necessary to address an Environmental Loss subject to indemnification hereunder, provided, however, that Seller shall have first notified Buyer in writing of Seller’s acceptance of its responsibility to indemnify Buyer for such Environmental Loss. Notwithstanding whether Seller elects to control the Environmental Activity as provided for in this Section, the party conducting such activity shall provide the other party with reasonable notice and opportunity to review, comment, and reasonably participate in and approve of any such Environmental Activity or related communications with Governmental Entities. To the extent that Seller elects to conduct any Environmental Activity as provided hereunder, Buyer shall provide Seller with reasonable access to the Owned Real Property to conduct such Environmental Activity, provided that Seller: (i) comply with applicable Laws (including Environmental Laws); (ii) carry out such activities in a manner that will not unreasonably interfere with the Business or the Buyer’s operations at the Owned Real Property; (iii) restore the Owned Real Property to a substantially similar condition as existed immediately prior to Seller undertaking any such Environmental Activity; and (iv) furnish or cause to be furnished to Buyer certificates of insurance evidencing reasonable and customary coverage maintained by Seller’s agents, employees, independent contractors or consultants conducting any Environmental Activity at the Owned Real Property.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article IX, and except for claims relating to breaches of Section 3.5 or the Fundamental Representations, Seller will not be obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party in respect of any claim of any Buyer Indemnified Party for any breach of a representation or warranty under Section 9.1(a)(i) unless the aggregate dollar amount of all Losses in respect of such claim equals or exceeds the Basket Amount, in which event Seller will be liable for all Losses resulting from such claim.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in no event will the amount payable by Seller or its Affiliates for indemnification for any and all claims relating to breaches of representations or warranties under Section 9.1(a)(i) (except for claims relating to breaches of Sections 3.5, 3.7(a), the first sentence of Section 3.10(d) or the Fundamental Representations) in the aggregate exceed 20% of the Purchase Price (the “Cap Amount”).

(f) An Indemnified Party will not be entitled under this Agreement to multiple recoveries for the same Losses.

(g) In connection with an alleged breach of Seller’s representations and warranties under this Agreement, Losses will be net of any specified reserves or Liabilities in respect of the subject matter of such breach established on the Final Closing Working Capital Statement pursuant to Sections 2.5 through 2.9.

(h) With respect to indemnification contained in Section 9.1(a)(i) of this Agreement (i) each such obligation shall be calculated on an After-Tax Basis, (ii) all Losses shall be net of any third-party insurance proceeds that have been recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification; provided such netting does not conflict with or violate any insurance policy, insurance Contract or insurance program, (iii) Seller shall have no liability to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party with respect to any Losses caused by or resulting from any action (A) expressly required by, and performed in accordance with, Section 5.1, or (B) for which Buyer has provided its prior written consent executed by the General Counsel of Buyer (including pursuant to Section 5.1) or (C) that Seller does not take as a result of Buyer unreasonably withholding its consent pursuant to Section 5.1.

(i) If an Indemnifying Party makes any payment for any Losses suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses and with respect to the claim giving rise to such Losses; provided such subrogation does not conflict with or violate any insurance policy, insurance Contract or insurance program.

9.4 Adjustments to Purchase Price. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, all payments made with respect to the rights of indemnity under Article IX will be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes.

9.5 Certain Damages; Sole Remedy. Except with respect to claims of fraud or Third Party Claims under Section 9.2, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Seller nor Buyer will be liable to or otherwise responsible to any Indemnified Party or any other Person for (a) any special, indirect or other damages, in each case that are remote or speculative, not reasonably foreseeable or do not flow proximately from the underlying breach or (b) punitive or exemplary damages, in each case in respect of a given breach of a representation or covenant. Except with respect to the matters covered by Sections 2.5 through 2.9 and other than with respect to any equitable remedies, or fraud, Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the indemnification provisions of Sections 5.10(b), 5.14, 5.17(b) and 9.1 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies after the Closing of any Seller Indemnified Party and any Buyer Indemnified Party, respectively, for any Losses (including any Losses from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) that it may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with, any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by Buyer or the Seller, respectively, or any failure by Buyer or Seller, respectively, to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission they may otherwise have or to which they may become entitled.

9.6 Mitigation. Each of the parties hereto agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its respective Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder.

9.7 Third Party Remedies. If any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates is at any time entitled (whether by reason of a contractual right, a right to take or bring a legal action, availability of insurance, or a right to require a payment discount or otherwise, provided that no such obligation exists to the extent that it would violate any subrogation or similar clause in any insurance policies, insurance Contract or insurance programs) to recover from another Person any amount in respect of any matter giving rise to a Loss (whether before or after a payment has been made to an Indemnified Party hereunder and in respect thereof), the Indemnified Party shall (and shall cause its applicable Affiliate to) (a) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party and provide such information as the Indemnifying Party may require relating to such right of recovery and the steps taken or to be taken by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith, including by assigning any such rights to the Indemnifying Party if possible and to the extent necessary to enable the Indemnifying Party to enforce such rights, (b) if so required by the Indemnifying Party (subject to the Indemnified Party being indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Indemnifying Party against all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in respect thereof), take commercially reasonable steps as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require to pursue such recovery, and (c) keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any action taken in respect thereof. If an Indemnified Party recovers any amounts in respect of Losses from any third party at any time after the Indemnifying Party has paid all or a portion of such Losses to the Indemnified Parties pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so received (to the extent of amounts previously paid by the Indemnifying Party).

9.8 Effect of Government and Third Party Consents. Nothing set forth in any consent, waiver, novation or similar instrument (a) executed and delivered by Buyer or any of its Affiliates to any Person, including a Governmental Entity, or (b) executed and delivered to or by any Person (including a Governmental Entity, Aircelle, Boeing, or Seller), whether or not Buyer is an express signatory, including the Aircelle Settlement or the Boeing Consent, shall affect, prejudice, reduce, modify or foreclose Buyer’s indemnification rights under this Article IX or the provisions of Sections 2.3 or 2.4 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9.8 shall not affect information disclosed to Buyer in the Seller Disclosure Schedule, or the effect of such disclosure, in each case pursuant to, and for purposes of, Article III.

ARTICLE X

TAX MATTERS

10.1 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller and Buyer shall each be liable for one half of any transfer, gains, sales, use, stock transfer and stamp taxes, recording, registration and other fees, and any other similar Taxes which become payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”). The parties will cooperate with each other in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns relating to Transfer Taxes, including allowing each party to review and approve the Tax Returns and related data prior to filing such Tax Returns and joining in the execution of any such Tax Return or other documentation where necessary. Seller and Buyer will, upon request of the other party, use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Transfer Tax. The party required by Law to file a Tax Return with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall timely prepare, with the other parties’ cooperation, and file such Tax Return. If Seller files any such Tax Return, Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for one half of any Transfer Taxes paid by Seller in connection with the filing of such Tax Return. If Buyer files any such Tax Return, Seller shall promptly reimburse Buyer for one half of any Transfer Taxes paid by Buyer in connection with the filing of such Tax Return.

10.2 Bulk Sales Laws. The parties hereby waive compliance with the provisions of any tax clearance procedures, bulk sales, bulk transfer or similar Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer.

10.3 Predecessor-Successor Reporting for Federal Tax Purposes. Seller and Buyer agree to comply with the Standard Procedure described in Section 4 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-2 C.B. 320, pursuant to which Seller will be responsible for filing and furnishing IRS Forms W-2 and 941 for the wages and other compensation Seller or its Affiliates pay to the Business Employees, and Buyer will be responsible for filing and furnishing IRS Forms W-2 and 941 for the wages and other compensation Buyer or its Affiliates pay to the Hired Employees.

10.4 Cooperation. Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate reasonably in (a) preparing and filing all Tax Returns with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business, including the furnishing or making available during normal business hours of records, personnel (as reasonably required), books of account, powers of attorney and other materials reasonably necessary or helpful for the preparation of such Tax Returns and providing Buyer the necessary information to allow Buyer to adjust its base period for purposes of computing the research and development credit in accordance with Section 41(f)(3) of the Code, (b) giving the other party timely written notice of and responding to any inquiries, audits or similar proceedings by any Tax authority relating to Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business and (c) resolving all disputes and audits with any Tax Authority relating to Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business.

10.5 Property Tax Proration. All real and personal property Taxes with respect to the Purchased Assets assessed during the calendar year of the Closing will be prorated as of the Closing with Seller being liable for such Taxes attributable to the days in the calendar year through and including the Closing Date and Buyer being liable for such Taxes attributable to days in the calendar year after the Closing Date. Proration of property Taxes shall be made on the basis of the most recent officially certified Tax valuation and assessment for the Acquired Assets. If such valuation pertains to a Tax period other than that in which the Closing occurs, such proration shall be recalculated at such time as actual Tax bills for such period are available and the parties shall cooperate with each other in all respects in connection with such recalculation and pay any sums due in consequence thereof to the party entitled to recover the same within sixty days after the issuance of such actual Tax bills.

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS

11.1 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications pursuant to this Agreement will be in writing, addressed to the address of the parties stated below or to such changed address as such party may have fixed by notice, and will be deemed to have been given and received: (a) the same day, if by hand delivery, (b) the next day, if by a nationally-recognized overnight courier, (c) five days after mailed, in any general or branch United States Post Office, enclosed in a registered or certified post-paid envelope, return receipt requested or (d) upon confirmation of receipt during normal business hours, if by fax or other form of electronic transmission:

If to Buyer or Buyer Parent, to:

A. Christopher Fawzy, Corporate Vice President and General Counsel

Any notice of change of address will be effective only upon receipt.

11.2 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

11.3 Assignability. Subject to Section 5.13(b), neither this Agreement, nor any of the rights or obligations hereunder, may be assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, provided that Buyer may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate of Buyer without the consent of Seller, provided that no such assignment by Buyer to an Affiliate shall release Buyer from any liability or obligation under this Agreement. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 11.3 shall be void. This Agreement and its rights and obligations will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

11.4 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when executed will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. The exchange by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission of executed counterparts of this Agreement will be deemed execution and delivery thereof.

11.5 Public Announcement. Neither Buyer nor Seller will issue or permit any of its respective Affiliates, agents, stockholders, directors, officers or employees to issue, any press release or public filing or other public announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby (other than any mutual press release announcing this Agreement) without the prior written consent of the other, provided that nothing contained herein will prevent Buyer or its Affiliates from furnishing, after the Closing, any required information to, or filing any required information with, any Governmental Entity or national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system in which the securities of Buyer or its Affiliates are listed or admitted for trading or in order to comply with any legal obligations.

11.6 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the fees and disbursements of the counsel, accountants or auditors retained by each party in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and performance of this Agreement, or any other document, agreement or requirement contemplated by or resulting from the transactions described in this Agreement) will be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

11.7 No Third Party Beneficiary Rights. Subject to Section 5.13(b), this Agreement is not intended to and will not be construed to give any Person other than the parties signatory hereto any interest or rights (including any third party beneficiary rights) with respect to or in connection with this Agreement or provision contained herein or contemplated hereby.

11.8 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Covered Disputes. Prior to the parties exercising any rights pursuant to Section 11.9, any dispute, controversy or claim (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the meaning of its provisions, or the proper performance of any of its terms by any party hereto, or its breach, termination or invalidity (each, a “Dispute”) will be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this Section 11.8, except as described in Sections 2.5 through 2.9 or the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Initiation of Procedures. Either party hereto wishing to initiate the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section 11.8 shall give written notice of the Dispute to the other party hereto (“Dispute Notice”).

(c) Negotiation Between Executives. If a party hereto has given a Dispute Notice under the preceding subsection, the President and CEO of Seller and Buyer Parent (or a designee satisfactory to the other party) will attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days of the issuance of the Dispute Notice. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that such individuals shall be executives who have authority to settle the Dispute on behalf of their respective organizations. Within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, the receiving party will submit to the other a written response. The response will include (i) a statement of that party’s position and a summary of arguments supporting that position, and (ii) the name and title of the senior executives described above and of any other person who will accompany them. Within forty-five (45) days after delivery of the Dispute Notice, the executives of Buyer and Seller and any individual(s) accompanying them will meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter, as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the Dispute.

(d) Mediation. If the Dispute has not been resolved by negotiation under Section 11.8(c) within sixty (60) days of the Dispute Notice, and only in such event, Seller or Buyer shall initiate the mediation procedure of this Section 11.8(d) by giving written notice to the other party (“Mediation Notice”). The parties hereto will endeavor to settle the Dispute by non-binding mediation within ninety (90) days of the Mediation Notice under the then current CPR International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”) Mediation Procedure. The mediation shall be conducted in Chicago, IL. If the parties have not agreed upon a mediator within five (5) business days after the Mediation Notice, Buyer or Seller may request CPR’s assistance in the selection of a mediator under its guidelines. The mediator will establish rules for an expedited discovery procedure and will resolve all disputes with regard to discovery between the parties. Each party to the mediation shall bear its own expenses in connection with such mediation, and the fees and expenses of the mediator shall be shared equally between Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand.

(e) Tolling and Performance. If a party hereto gives another party hereto a Dispute Notice within the applicable statute of limitation or the applicable survival period, the statute of limitation or the survival period relating to that particular Dispute shall be tolled, provided that the party pursues dispute resolution in accordance with the time frame specified in this Section 11.8. The parties hereto will take any further action required to effectuate that tolling. Each party hereto is required to continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement pending final resolution of any Dispute, unless to do so would be impossible or impracticable under the circumstances.

(f) Confidentiality. Except as required by Law, none of Seller, Buyer nor any of their respective representatives may disclose the existence, content, or results of any dispute resolution procedure hereunder without the prior written consent of each of Seller and Buyer.

11.9 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Subject to prior compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 11.8, with respect to any Action resulting from, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement, and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other party hereto or its successors or assigns, each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware) (the “Designated Courts”). In any such action, suit or proceeding, each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise (i) any claim that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of the Designated Courts, (ii) that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, (iii) that such action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, (iv) that the venue of such action, suit or proceeding is improper, (v) that such action, suit or proceeding should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the Designated Courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any other court other than one of the Designated Courts, or (vi) that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by the Designated Courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees not to commence any such action, suit or proceeding other than before one of the Designated Courts. Each of the parties hereto also hereby agrees that any final and unappealable judgment against a party in connection with any such action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and binding on such party and that such judgment may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, either within or outside of the U.S. A certified or exemplified copy of such award or judgment shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such award or judgment. With respect to any action, suit or proceeding for which it has submitted to jurisdiction pursuant to this Section 11.9, each party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for the giving of notices pursuant to Section 11.1 of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 11.9 shall affect the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law. The foregoing consent to jurisdiction shall not (a) constitute submission to jurisdiction or general consent to service of process in the State of Delaware for any purpose except with respect to any action, suit or proceeding resulting from, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or (b) be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the respective parties to this Agreement.

(b) TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT THEY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS AND WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

11.10 Governing Law. Except as provided in Section 11.16, this Agreement and its validity, construction and performance will be governed in all respects by the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and wholly performed in such state.

11.11 Specific Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have an adequate remedy at law if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Therefore, the obligations of Seller under this Agreement, including Seller’s obligation to sell the Purchased Assets to Buyer, and the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement, including Buyer’s obligation to purchase and acquire the Purchased Assets and assume the Assumed Liabilities from Seller, shall be enforceable by an order of specific performance issued in connection with any decision made in accordance with this Section 11.11, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

11.12 Seller Disclosure Schedule. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in any Section of this Agreement, including any section or subsection of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer Disclosure Schedule, will be construed as an admission or indication that such item or other matter is material or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in this Agreement, the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the Buyer Disclosure Schedule. Without limiting the foregoing, no such reference to or disclosure of a possible breach or violation of any contract, Law or order of a Governmental Entity will be construed as an admission or indication that any breach or violation exists or has actually occurred. Matters reflected in any Section of this Agreement, including any Section of the Disclosure Schedule, are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be so reflected. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature.

11.13 Amendment; Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified except by a written instrument signed by all of the parties hereto. Either Buyer or Seller may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered by the other party pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions of the other party contained herein. Any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. Any waiver of any term or condition will not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition, of this Agreement. The failure of any party to assert any of its rights hereunder will not constitute a waiver of any of such rights.

11.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Annexes, Schedules and Exhibits hereto, and the Ancillary Agreements set forth the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof and merge and supersede all prior discussions, agreements and understandings of every kind and nature among them with respect to the subject matter hereof, and no party hereto will be bound by any representation, warranty, covenant, term or condition, whether written or oral, other than as expressly provided for in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement as to the subject matter hereof or thereof.

11.15 Sealed Instrument. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that it is their intent that this Agreement be, and that it will be treated and construed as, a sealed instrument for all purposes of the laws of the State of Delaware including the statute of limitations applicable to sealed instruments.

11.16 Guarantees.

(a) From and after the date hereof, Buyer Parent hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment and performance by Buyer (which term shall include any assignees of any of its obligations under this Agreement) of all of its obligations under Sections 2.5 thru 2.11, Article IX and Section 11.11 of this Agreement (“Buyer Guaranteed Obligations”) when the same shall become due, in each case after any applicable grace periods or notice requirements, according to the terms of this Agreement (the “Buyer Parent Guaranty”); provided, however, that Buyer Parent shall not be liable to make any payment until two Business Days following receipt by Buyer Parent of written notice from Seller that a payment or other amount is due thereunder. Buyer Parent hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of this Agreement against Buyer, any change therein or amendment thereto, the absence of any action to enforce or any waiver of any default in respect of the same, the recovery of any judgment against Buyer or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor; provided, however, that (i) Buyer Parent’s obligations under the Buyer Parent Guaranty shall be subject to defenses available to Buyer, other than the bankruptcy or insolvency of any of Buyer or the validity or enforceability of the obligations of Seller, and (ii) nothing contained herein shall be construed to be a waiver by Buyer Parent of notice to Buyer Parent required pursuant to this Section 11.16(a) or Section 11.1 hereof with respect to this Agreement and the obligations evidenced hereby. Buyer Parent covenants that the Buyer Parent Guaranty will not be discharged except by complete performance of the Buyer Guaranteed Obligations and Buyer Parent’s obligations under this Section 11.16(a).

(i) Buyer Parent shall be subrogated to all rights of Seller in respect of any amounts paid by Seller pursuant to the provisions of the Buyer Parent Guaranty.

(ii) The Buyer Parent Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any amount owed to Seller under the Buyer Parent Guaranty or the Buyer Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Seller upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Buyer Parent, Buyer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(iii) The Buyer Parent Guaranty shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the Laws of the State of New York.

(b) Effective only from and after the occurrence of a Seller Insolvency Event, GE hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment and performance by Seller (which term shall include any assignees of any of its obligations under this Agreement) of all of its obligations under Article IX of this Agreement (“Seller Guaranteed Obligations”) when the same shall become due, in each case after any applicable grace periods or notice requirements, according to the terms of this Agreement (the “GE Guaranty”); provided, however, that GE shall not be liable to make any payment until two Business Days following receipt by GE of written notice from Buyer that a payment or other amount is due thereunder. Except as otherwise provided in the immediately preceding sentence, GE hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity or enforceability of this Agreement against Seller, any change therein or amendment thereto, the absence of any action to enforce or any waiver of any default in respect of the same, the recovery of any judgment against Seller or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor; provided, however, that (i) GE’s obligations under the GE Guaranty shall be subject to defenses available to Seller, other than the bankruptcy or insolvency of any of Seller or the validity or enforceability of the obligations of Buyer, and (ii) nothing contained herein shall be construed to be a waiver by GE of notice to GE required pursuant to this Section 11.16(b) or Section 11.1 hereof with respect to this Agreement and the obligations evidenced hereby. GE covenants that the GE Guaranty will not be discharged except by complete performance of Seller Guaranteed Obligations and GE’s obligations under this Section 11.16(b).

(i) GE shall be subrogated to all rights of Buyer in respect of any amounts paid by GE pursuant to the provisions of the GE Guaranty.

(ii) The GE Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any amount owed to Buyer under the GE Guaranty or the Seller Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of GE, Seller or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(iii) The GE Guaranty shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the Laws of the State of New York.
