NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of the representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

The Separation; the Ivory Contribution and the Toro Merger; Organizational Documents; Directors and Officers

ARTICLE II

Certain Effects of the Toro Merger

Section 2.01. Effect of the Toro Merger on Toro’s Capital Stock.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Toro Merger and without any action on the part of the holders of any capital stock of Toro or the holders of membership interests of Toro Merger Sub, as applicable:

(i) Each share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Toro (the “Toro Common Stock”) that immediately before the Effective Time is held in treasury by Toro or otherwise owned by Toro, Ivory Parent, or any of their respective Subsidiaries (such shares, collectively, the “Toro Excluded Stock”) shall be canceled without payment of any consideration therefor, and shall cease to exist;

(ii) Subject to Section 2.03, each share of Toro Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time (other than any Toro Excluded Stock) shall be canceled, shall cease to exist, and shall be converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive (A) one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of CombineCo Common Stock and (B) an amount in cash equal to the quotient of (X) the Cash Merger Consideration Amount divided by (Y) the aggregate number of shares of Toro Common Stock that (1) are issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time

- 4 -

(other than Toro Excluded Stock) or (2) are or may become issuable upon exercise or vesting of all options, warrants, conversion privileges, and other similar rights to acquire shares of Toro Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Effective Time, whether or not such options, warrants, conversion privileges, or other similar rights are then fully vested or immediately exercisable (including the shares of Toro Common Stock that are subject to Toro In-The-Money Options or Vested Toro RSUs immediately before the Effective Time, but excluding however the shares of Toro Common Stock that are (I) subject to Unvested Toro RSUs immediately before the Effective Time or (II) issuable on conversion of the Toro Convertible Notes) (such consideration described in clauses (A)–(B), the “Toro Merger Consideration,” and the amount of cash per share described in clause (B), the “Cash Amount Per Share”);

(iii) The membership interests of Toro Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately before the Effective Time (all of which shall be owned beneficially and of record by CombineCo) shall be converted into an aggregate of 1,000 validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Toro Surviving Corporation; and

(b) At the Effective Time, each share of capital stock of CombineCo that is owned by Toro or any of its Subsidiaries immediately before the Effective Time shall be repurchased by CombineCo for its par value and shall be canceled without payment of any further consideration therefor and shall cease to exist.

(c) From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Toro of the shares of Toro Common Stock that were outstanding immediately before the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Toro Certificates or Toro Uncertificated Shares are presented to the Toro Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Toro Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article II, no fractional shares of CombineCo Common Stock will be issued in the Toro Merger, and if any former holder of Toro Common Stock would be entitled to receive a fractional share of CombineCo Common Stock but for this Section 2.01(d) then such former holder shall be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu thereof, which payment shall be determined by multiplying the closing sale price of a share of CombineCo Common Stock on Nasdaq (or such other U.S. national securities exchange on which the CombineCo Common Stock is then listed) on the first full trading day immediately following the Effective Time by the fraction of a share of CombineCo Common Stock to which such former holder would otherwise have been entitled.

(e) Prior to the Effective Time, CombineCo shall appoint an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for purposes of exchanging for Toro Merger Consideration (i) certificates representing certificated shares of Toro Common Stock immediately before the Effective Time (each such certificate, a “Toro Certificate”) and (ii) book-entry accounts representing uncertificated shares of Toro Common Stock immediately before the Effective Time (such shares, the “Toro Uncertificated Shares”). At or prior to the Effective Time, CombineCo shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.01(e) through the Exchange Agent, (X) evidence of shares in book-entry form representing the shares of CombineCo Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Section 2.01 and (Y) cash in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the aggregate Cash Amount Per Share payable pursuant to this Section 2.01, provided that any Cash Amount Per Share payable to holders of Toro In-The-Money Options and Vested Toro RSUs pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and Section 2.04(b)(ii) shall be retained by CombineCo for distribution to such holders pursuant to such sections. CombineCo agrees to make promptly available, directly or indirectly, to the Exchange Agent from time to time as needed additional cash sufficient to pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares of CombineCo Common Stock to which such holders are entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(d). Promptly after the Effective Time and in any event within three business days after the Closing Date, CombineCo shall send, or shall cause the Exchange

- 5 -

Agent to send, to each record holder of shares of Toro Common Stock a letter of transmittal and instructions (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Toro Certificates or transfer of the Toro Uncertificated Shares to the Exchange Agent and which shall otherwise be in customary form and shall include customary provisions with respect to delivery of an “agent’s message” regarding the book-entry transfer of Toro Uncertificated Shares) for use in such exchange. The evidences of shares of CombineCo Common Stock in book-entry form and the cash deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 2.01(e) are sometimes referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund.” CombineCo shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the Toro Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance herewith. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by CombineCo. Any interest and other income resulting from such investments shall be the income and property of, and paid to, CombineCo upon termination of the Exchange Fund.

(f) Each holder of shares of Toro Common Stock that have been converted into the right to receive the Toro Merger Consideration shall be entitled to receive, upon (i) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Toro Certificate, together with a properly completed letter of transmittal, or (ii) receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request) in the case of a book-entry transfer of Toro Uncertificated Shares, in respect of each share of Toro Common Stock represented by such Toro Certificate or Toro Uncertificated Share, the Toro Merger Consideration. The shares of CombineCo Common Stock constituting Toro Merger Consideration shall, unless otherwise elected by CombineCo at CombineCo’s option, be in uncertificated book-entry form, unless a physical certificate is required under applicable Law.

(g) If any portion of the Toro Merger Consideration is to be delivered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Toro Certificate or the transferred Toro Uncertificated Share is registered, it shall be a condition to such delivery that (i) either such Toro Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Toro Uncertificated Share shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such delivery shall pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer or similar Taxes required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Toro Certificate or Toro Uncertificated Share or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such transfer or similar Taxes have been paid or are not payable.

(h) If any Toro Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Toro Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Toro Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Toro Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Toro Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Toro Certificate, the Toro Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Toro Common Stock represented by such Toro Certificate, as contemplated by this Section 2.01.

(i) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Toro Common Stock 12 months following the Closing Date shall be delivered to CombineCo or as otherwise instructed by CombineCo, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged shares of Toro Common Stock for the applicable Toro Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.01 prior to such time shall thereafter look only to CombineCo for payment of such Toro Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CombineCo and its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing, the Toro Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) shall not be liable to any holder of shares of Toro Common Stock for any amounts properly paid to a public official in compliance with applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Toro Common Stock immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of CombineCo free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(j) Following the surrender of any Toro Certificates or the transfer of any Toro Uncertificated Shares as provided in this Section 2.01, and in any event within two business days following such surrender or transfer, the Exchange Agent shall pay, or cause to be paid, without interest, to the Person in whose name the shares of CombineCo Common Stock constituting the Toro Merger Consideration have been registered, the aggregate Cash Amount Per Share to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(ii) plus the amount of any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares to which such Person is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01(d). No cash payment in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.01(d) shall be paid to the holder of any Toro Certificates not surrendered or of any Toro Uncertificated Shares not transferred until such Toro Certificates or Toro Uncertificated Shares are surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, as provided in this Section 2.01.

Section 2.02. Adjustments to Prevent Dilution. If, before the Effective Time, Toro changes the number of shares of Toro Common Stock (or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any such shares) issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time, as a result of a distribution, reclassification, stock split (including a reverse stock split), stock dividend or distribution, recapitalization, subdivision, or other similar transaction, as applicable, the Toro Merger Consideration shall be equitably adjusted to eliminate the effects of such event on the Toro Merger Consideration. The foregoing will not limit any other right or remedy that any party hereto may have following any such change.

Section 2.03. Dissenting Stockholders’ Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any share of Toro Common Stock that immediately before the Effective Time was issued and outstanding and held or beneficially owned by a Toro dissenting stockholder who has made a proper demand for appraisal rights of such shares of Toro Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL and who has otherwise complied with all applicable provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL and has not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (each such share, a “Toro Dissenting Share”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Toro Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.01(a) but instead shall become the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due to such Toro dissenting stockholder pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that if a Toro dissenting stockholder validly withdraws such demand for appraisal or fails to perfect or otherwise loses such right of appraisal pursuant to the DGCL with respect to any Toro Dissenting Shares, such Toro Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to be converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right of such Toro dissenting stockholder to receive the Toro Merger Consideration with respect to such shares, without interest and less any Tax withholding.

(b) Toro shall give Ivory HoldCo prompt written notice of any demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law and received by Toro relating to stockholders’ rights of appraisal. Toro shall not, except with the prior written consent of Ivory Parent, (i) voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, or (ii) offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.04. Treatment of Toro Options, RSUs, and ESPP.

(a) Toro Options. Each Toro Option, whether vested or unvested, that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, as of the Effective Time, vest (to the extent unvested) in full. Subject to Section 2.06, each Toro In-The-Money Option shall, immediately prior

- 7 -

to the Effective Time, automatically and, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to exist, and be converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive (A) the Toro Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) in respect of the shares of Toro Common Stock underlying such Toro In-The-Money Option, reduced by (B) the aggregate exercise price of such Toro In-The-Money Option, with the aggregate exercise price (1) first reducing the cash portion of the Toro Merger Consideration payable to such holder and (2) to the extent such cash portion of the Toro Merger Consideration is less than the aggregate exercise price of such Toro In-The-Money Option, next reducing the number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock otherwise issuable to such holder by a number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock equal to (I) the remaining portion of the aggregate exercise price of such Toro In-The-Money Option, divided by (II) the amount equal to (A) the closing per share price of Toro Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately prior to the day on which the Effective Time occurs, less (B) the Cash Amount Per Share. Each Toro Underwater Option shall, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, be canceled and terminated without any payment or consideration therefor.

(b) Toro RSUs.

(i) Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.04(b), the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

(A) “Broad RSU” means a Toro RSU that is not a Key RSU or an Executive RSU.

(B) “Executive RSU” means a Toro RSU held by an individual listed in Section 2.04(b)(i)(B) of the Toro Disclosure Letter.

(D) “Toro RSU” means an award of restricted stock units in respect of shares of Toro Common Stock under any Toro Stock Plan.

(ii) Vested Toro RSUs. The Toro Board shall take such actions as are necessary so that immediately prior to the Effective Time, 100% of unvested Key RSUs, 100% of unvested Executive RSUs and 50% of unvested Broad RSUs (collectively, the “Vested Toro RSUs”) shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable. At the Effective Time and subject to Section 2.06, each Vested Toro RSU shall be canceled, shall cease to exist, and shall be converted into the right of the holder thereof to receive the Toro Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 2.01(a)(ii) in respect of the shares of Toro Common Stock underlying such Vested Toro RSU.

(iii) Unvested Toro RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Broad RSU that is outstanding and unvested as of the Effective Time (after taking into account any vesting of such RSUs pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(ii)) (such Toro RSUs, the “Unvested Toro RSUs”) shall be assumed by CombineCo and such Unvested Toro RSUs shall be converted into an award of restricted stock units with respect to shares of CombineCo Common Stock (each, an “Unvested CombineCo RSU”) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.04(b). The number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock applicable to each such Unvested CombineCo RSU shall be (i) the number of shares of Toro Common Stock underlying such Unvested Toro RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, plus (ii) an additional number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock, if any, determined by (1) multiplying the number of shares determined in the preceding clause by the Cash Amount Per Share and (2) dividing the resulting product by the amount equal to the difference between (A) the closing per share price of Toro Common Stock for the Trading Day immediately prior to the day on which the Effective Time occurs and (B) the Cash Amount

- 8 -

Per Share, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock. Each Unvested CombineCo RSU shall continue to be governed by the Toro 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, which shall be assumed by CombineCo solely to govern and administer the Unvested CombineCo RSUs and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting, accelerated vesting and settlement schedule) as applied to the corresponding Unvested Toro RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that Unvested CombineCo RSUs shall be settled only in shares of CombineCo Common Stock.

(c) Toro ESPP. Following the Execution Date, the Toro ESPP shall continue to operate consistent with its terms as in existence as of the Execution Date. If the Closing Date shall occur prior to the end of a Plan Period (as defined in the Toro ESPP), all accumulated participant contributions under the Toro ESPP shall be used to purchase shares of Toro Common Stock from Toro as close as reasonably practicable to (but in any event prior to) the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Toro ESPP as if it was the last day of the Plan Period. The Toro ESPP shall terminate in its entirety on the Closing Date, and no further rights shall be granted or exercised under the Toro ESPP thereafter.

(d) CombineCo, Toro, and Ivory HoldCo Actions.

(i) At the Effective Time, CombineCo shall assume the Toro 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan solely to govern and administer the Unvested CombineCo RSUs issued pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(iii) hereof. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, CombineCo shall, if registration of the shares of CombineCo Common Stock issuable pursuant to awards granted under Section 2.04(b)(iii) is required under the Securities Act, file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form or other appropriate form if CombineCo, in its sole discretion, was to determine that such shares were not eligible for registration on Form S-8), or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the Securities Act or another appropriate form, with respect to such CombineCo Common Stock (covering the offers and sales of a number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock at least equal to the number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock subject to the Unvested CombineCo RSUs granted pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(iii)). CombineCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement while such awards remain outstanding.

(ii) At or prior to the Effective Time, Toro, the Board of Directors of Toro, and the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Toro, as applicable, shall adopt any resolutions and take any other actions as are necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.04. CombineCo shall take all actions as are reasonably necessary to assume the Toro 2017 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and for the conversion and assumption of the Unvested Toro RSUs pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(iii).

(e) CombineCo Equity Plans.

(i) CombineCo Equity Incentive Plan. Prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, the Board of Directors of CombineCo shall adopt a new equity incentive plan to be effective at Effective Time in customary form as Toro and Ivory Parent may mutually agree (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (the “CombineCo Equity Incentive Plan”). The CombineCo Equity Incentive Plan shall have such number of shares available for issuance as shall be mutually agreed by Toro and Ivory Parent (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but in no event shall such number of shares represent less than 10% of the shares of CombineCo Common Stock to be issued and outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

- 9 -

(ii) CombineCo ESPP. Prior to effective date of the Registration Statement, the Board of Directors of CombineCo shall adopt an employee stock purchase plan to be effective at the Effective Time in customary form as Toro and Ivory Parent may mutually agree (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) but which plan shall comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code (the “CombineCo ESPP”). The CombineCo ESPP shall have a number of shares available for issuance as shall be mutually agreed by Toro and Ivory Parent (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but in no event shall such number of shares represent less than 2.5% of the shares of CombineCo Common Stock to be issued and outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

Section 2.05. Working Capital and Non-Current Liabilities Adjustments.

(a) Ivory HoldCo shall prepare, and at least three business days prior to the anticipated Closing Date deliver to Toro, a statement setting forth with reasonable supporting detail Ivory HoldCo’s good faith estimates of the Working Capital and the Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount as of the Effective Time (such estimates, the “Estimated Closing Working Capital” and the “Estimated Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount”, respectively; and such statement, the “Estimated Closing Statement”); provided, however, that (x) at least six business days prior to the delivery to Toro of the Estimated Closing Statement, Ivory HoldCo shall provide for Toro’s review a draft of Ivory HoldCo’s Estimated Closing Statement and such reasonable supporting detail, (y) Ivory HoldCo shall provide Toro with (1) the opportunity to provide comments to such draft, which comments Toro agrees shall be made in good faith, and (2) such other information reasonably requested by Toro in connection with such review, and (z) Ivory HoldCo shall consider in good faith any such comments made by Toro with respect thereto within three business days after receipt by Toro of such draft, and Ivory HoldCo shall correct any manifest errors identified by Toro therein.

(b) If the Estimated Closing Working Capital set out in the Estimated Closing Statement exceeds the Closing Working Capital Target by more than $10 million, then (i) the “Estimated WC Decrease Amount” shall equal (x) the amount of such excess minus (y) $10 million; provided, however, that in no event shall the Estimated WC Decrease Amount be more than $40 million, and (ii) the “Estimated WC Increase Amount” shall equal zero. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital set out in the Estimated Closing Statement is less than the Closing Working Capital Target by more than $10 million, then (I) the “Estimated WC Increase Amount” shall equal (x) the amount of such shortfall minus (y) $10 million; provided, however, that in no event shall the Estimated WC Increase Amount exceed $40 million, and (II) the “Estimated WC Decrease Amount” shall equal zero. If the Estimated Closing Working Capital set out in the Estimated Closing Statement exceeds or is less than the Closing Working Capital Target by no more than $10 million, then each of the Estimated WC Decrease Amount and the Estimated WC Increase Amount shall equal zero.

(c) Within 90 days, but no sooner than 60 days, after the Closing Date, Ivory HoldCo shall prepare and deliver to CombineCo a statement setting forth with reasonable supporting detail Ivory HoldCo’s good faith calculations of the Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount, in each case as of the Effective Time (such statement, the “Closing Statement”). Ivory HoldCo shall promptly provide CombineCo all supporting documents and other information relating to the calculations contained in the Closing Statement as reasonably requested by CombineCo. CombineCo shall have 45 days from the date on which it receives the Closing Statement from Ivory HoldCo to raise any objections to the calculations of the Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount set forth therein by delivering a written notice to Ivory HoldCo setting forth such objections in reasonable detail (the “Disputed Items”). If CombineCo does not deliver any Disputed Items within such 45-day period, then the calculations of the Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount set forth in the Closing Statement shall be deemed final, binding and nonappealable. If any Disputed Items are so delivered, then the calculations set forth in the Closing Statement, to the extent related to the Disputed Items, shall not be deemed final, binding, or non-appealable, and CombineCo and Ivory

- 10 -

HoldCo shall attempt in good faith to resolve the Disputed Items; provided, however, that all calculations set forth in the Closing Statement, to the extent not related to the Disputed Items, shall be deemed final, binding, and non-appealable. All such discussions shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing by CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo) be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule. If CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo are unable to resolve all of the Disputed Items within 30 days after the date such Disputed Items notice is received by Ivory HoldCo in accordance with this Section 2.05(c), then either CombineCo or Ivory HoldCo may, by written notice to the other within five business days after such 30-day period (or such earlier date as mutually agreed), require CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo to engage the Reviewing Accountant and to submit only such Disputed Items as have not been resolved (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, any other item) to the Reviewing Accountant for resolution. If CombineCo delivers a Disputed Items notice pursuant to this Section 2.05(c), then Ivory HoldCo acknowledges and agrees that it shall not exercise any control over CombineCo (through its controlling interest in CombineCo or otherwise) in connection with the resolution of such Disputed Items pursuant to this Article II.

(d) CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo shall each provide to the Reviewing Accountant, and simultaneously to the other party, all supporting documents relating to such Disputed Items as are reasonably requested by the Reviewing Accountant (to the extent reasonably available to CombineCo or Ivory HoldCo, respectively), and the Reviewing Accountant shall provide copies of any such requests by the Reviewing Accountant simultaneously to both parties. CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo shall cause the Reviewing Accountant to review the Disputed Items and base its determination solely (and without an independent review) on the terms of this Agreement (including the definitions of Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount), such written submissions, and any related discussions between CombineCo, Ivory HoldCo, and the Reviewing Accountant (so long as representatives of CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo were present for each such discussions) with respect thereto. The parties agree that no ex parte conferences, oral examinations, testimony, depositions, discovery or other form of evidence gathering or hearings shall be conducted or allowed by the Reviewing Accountant; provided, however, that at the Reviewing Accountant’s request, or as mutually agreed by CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo, representatives of CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo may meet with the Reviewing Accountant so long as representatives of both such parties are present. In resolving the Disputed Items, the parties agree that the Reviewing Accountant shall (i) be acting as an accounting expert only and not as an arbitrator, (ii) consider only those Disputed Items that have been submitted to it for resolution, and (iii) strictly adhere to the definitions of Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount set forth in this Agreement without importing or taking into account usage, custom or other extrinsic evidence or factors. The Reviewing Accountant’s determination of Working Capital and the Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount shall be no greater than, and no less than, the respective amounts proposed by Ivory HoldCo and CombineCo in the Closing Statement and the Disputed Items notice, respectively. The determination by the Reviewing Accountant, as set forth in a written notice that CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo shall each use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Reviewing Accountant to deliver to CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo within 30 days after the submission of the Disputed Items to the Reviewing Accountant for resolution, shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, absent fraud or manifest error. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in connection with the resolution of such Disputed Items by the Reviewing Accountant, and the fees, costs and expenses of the Reviewing Accountant will be allocated to and borne by the parties in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the merits of the dispute, as determined by the Reviewing Accountant.

(e) At such time as the calculation of the Working Capital and Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount shall become final and binding in accordance with this Article (such date, the “Determination Date”):

(i) the Working Capital so calculated shall be referred to as the “Final Closing Working Capital”, and the Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount so calculated shall be referred to as the “Final Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount”;

(ii) if the Final Closing Working Capital exceeds the Closing Working Capital Target by more than $10 million, then (x) the “Final WC Decrease Amount” shall equal (A) the amount of such excess minus (B) $10 million; provided, however, that in no event shall the Final WC Decrease Amount be more than $40 million, and (y) the “Final WC Increase Amount” shall equal zero;

(iii) if the Final Closing Working Capital is less than the Closing Working Capital Target by more than $10 million, then (x) the “Final WC Increase Amount” shall equal (A) the amount of such shortfall minus (B) $10 million; provided, however, that in no event shall the Final WC Increase Amount exceed $40 million, and (y) the “Final WC Decrease Amount” shall equal zero;

(iv) if the Final Closing Working Capital exceeds or is less than the Closing Working Capital Target by no more than $10 million, then each of the Final WC Decrease Amount and the Final WC Increase Amount shall equal zero;

(v) the “Final Ivory Cash Payment Amount” shall equal (A) the Base Cash Amount, plus (B) the Adjusted EBITDA Cash Increase Amount (if any), plus (C) the Final WC Increase Amount (if any), plus (D) the Final Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount (if any), minus (E) the Final WC Decrease Amount (if any); and

(vi) if the Ivory Cash Payment exceeds the Final Ivory Cash Payment Amount, then CombineCo shall pay to Ivory HoldCo an amount in cash equal to such excess, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as Ivory HoldCo may direct by written notice to CombineCo, which payment shall be made within five business days after the later to occur of (1) the Determination Date and (2) the 12-month anniversary of the Closing Date. If the Final Ivory Cash Payment Amount exceeds the Ivory Cash Payment, then within five business days after the Determination Date, Ivory HoldCo shall pay to CombineCo an amount in cash equal to such excess, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as CombineCo may direct by written notice to Ivory HoldCo.

(f) Any payments required to be made pursuant to Sections 2.05(b) and 2.05(e) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Ivory Cash Payment by the parties for all Tax purposes.

Section 2.06. Withholding. Each of Ivory HoldCo, Bluefin, CombineCo, Toro, the Toro Surviving Corporation, Toro Merger Sub, and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold under any applicable provision of U.S. federal, state, or local or non-U.S. Tax Law; it being acknowledged and agreed that, with respect to any Toro Merger Consideration payable in respect of Toro In-The-Money Options or Vested Toro RSUs in accordance with Section 2.04, any such withholding obligation shall be satisfied (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to supplemental taxable income) first exclusively from the cash portion of such Toro Merger Consideration and, to the extent there is insufficient cash to fully satisfy such withholding obligation, second by withholding a number of shares of CombineCo Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the holder of such Toro In-The-Money Options or Vested Toro RSUs in accordance with Section 2.04 equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the dollar amount of the remaining withholding obligation, by (ii) the amount equal to (A) the closing price per share of Toro Common Stock, as reported on Nasdaq for the Trading Day immediately prior to the day on which the Effective Time occurs, less (B) the Cash Amount Per Share. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, and remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made (such shares of CombineCo Common Stock withheld pursuant to this Section 2.06, the “Withholding Shares”).

Section 5.03. Toro Acquisition Proposals.

(a) Toro shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to, immediately after the Execution Date: (i) cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, knowing encouragement, discussions, or negotiations with any Persons conducted before the execution of this Agreement with respect to any Toro Acquisition Proposal; (ii) instruct or otherwise request each Person who, within the 12 months immediately preceding the Execution Date, has executed a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement in connection with any actual or potential Toro Acquisition Proposal, to return or destroy all such confidential information or documents previously furnished in connection therewith together with any material incorporating any such information that is in the possession of such Person or its Representatives; and (iii) terminate access by all Persons (other than Ivory Parent, its Subsidiaries, and their respective Representatives) to any physical or electronic data rooms relating to any actual or potential Toro Acquisition Proposal.

(b) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 5.03, none of Toro, its Subsidiaries, or its or their respective Representatives shall, directly or indirectly: (i) initiate, solicit, knowingly encourage or otherwise knowingly facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Toro Acquisition Proposal; (ii) engage or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations relating to any Toro Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Toro Acquisition Proposal; (iii) provide any information or data to any Person in connection with any Toro Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry, proposal or offer that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Toro Acquisition Proposal; or (iv) otherwise knowingly facilitate any effort or attempt to make a Toro Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.03(b) but subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.03(c), before (but not after) the Toro Requisite Vote is obtained, Toro and its Representatives may refer any Person who makes an unsolicited Toro Acquisition Proposal after the Execution Date to this Section 5.03 and, in response to an unsolicited, bona fide written Toro Acquisition Proposal made after the Execution Date (i) contact the Person who made the Toro Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives solely to clarify the terms and conditions thereof; (ii) provide access to information regarding Toro or any of its Subsidiaries in response to a request therefor to the Person who made such Toro Acquisition Proposal and such Person’s Representatives; provided, however, that no such access may be provided unless (x) the information has previously been, or is concurrently, made available to Ivory Parent and (y) before furnishing any non-public information, Toro receives from the Person who made such Toro Acquisition Proposal an executed confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement with terms at least as restrictive in all material respects on such Person as the Confidentiality Agreement (it being understood that such confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement need not contain a “standstill” or similar obligations to the extent that Ivory Parent, Ivory HoldCo, Bluefin, and their respective Affiliates are, concurrently with the execution by Toro or any of its Subsidiaries of such confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement, released from any direct or indirect “standstill” or other similar obligations in the Confidentiality Agreement); provided, further, that Toro may not furnish information with respect to Ivory Parent or any of Ivory Parent’s Subsidiaries if and to the extent that doing so is prohibited under the Confidentiality Agreement; (iii) participate in discussions or negotiations with any such Person and its Representatives regarding such Toro Acquisition Proposal; provided that Toro and its Representatives shall not take any action described in clause (ii) or (iii) above unless before taking the action, the Board of Directors of Toro determines in good faith after consultation with outside legal counsel that (A) failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (B) based on the information then available and after consultation with outside legal counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, such Toro Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Toro Superior Proposal or could reasonably be expected to result in a Toro Superior Proposal.

- 56 -

(d) Toro shall promptly notify Ivory Parent if Toro, any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective Representatives receives (i) any inquiries, proposals, or offers with respect to a Toro Acquisition Proposal, (ii) any requests for non-public information in connection with any Toro Acquisition Proposal, or (iii) any requests to initiate or continue discussions or negotiations that could reasonably be expected to lead to any Toro Acquisition Proposal. Any such notification by Toro shall include the name of the Person making the inquiry, proposal, offer, or request and the material terms and conditions thereof (including, if applicable, copies of any written inquiries, proposals, offers, or requests, including proposed forms of agreements). Toro shall keep Ivory Parent informed, on a reasonably current basis, of the status and terms of any such proposals or offers (including any amendments thereto) and the status of any such discussions or negotiations (including any change in Toro’s intentions that Toro may have previously disclosed to Ivory Parent).

(e) Except as permitted by Section 5.03(f), the Board of Directors of Toro (including any committee of the Board of Directors) shall not (i) withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify (or publicly propose or resolve to withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify), in a manner adverse to Ivory Parent or Ivory HoldCo, the Toro Recommendation (it being understood that if any Toro Acquisition Proposal structured as a tender or exchange offer is commenced, the failure of the Board of Directors of Toro to recommend against acceptance of such tender or exchange offer by the Toro stockholders within ten business days of commencement thereof pursuant to Rule 14d-2 of the Exchange Act shall be considered a modification adverse to Ivory Parent and Ivory HoldCo); or (ii) approve or recommend, or publicly declare advisable or publicly propose to enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement, lease agreement, or other agreement (other than a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement referred to in Section 5.03(c) executed in compliance with Section 5.03(c)) relating to any Toro Acquisition Proposal (a “Toro Alternative Acquisition Agreement”).

(f) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.03(e), but subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.03(f), before (but not after) the Toro Requisite Vote is obtained, (i) the Board of Directors of Toro (or any committee thereof) may withhold, withdraw, qualify, or modify the Toro Recommendation or recommend or otherwise declare advisable any Toro Acquisition Proposal made after the Execution Date that did not result from or in connection with a material breach of this Agreement, (a “Toro Change in Recommendation”), if (A) in the case of such an action taken in connection with a Toro Acquisition Proposal, the Toro Acquisition Proposal is not withdrawn and the Board of Directors of Toro determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that such Toro Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Toro Superior Proposal, and (B) in all cases, the Board of Directors of Toro determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and a financial advisor of nationally recognized reputation, that the failure to take such action would be inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being understood that a customary “stop, look, and listen” disclosure in compliance with Rule 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Toro Change in Recommendation), and (ii) Toro may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.03(b) and concurrently with such termination simultaneously cause Toro to enter into an Toro Alternative Acquisition Agreement providing for a Toro Superior Proposal that did not result from or in connection with a material breach of this Agreement (a “Toro Superior Proposal Termination”); provided, however, that no Toro Change in Recommendation or Toro Superior Proposal Termination may be made until after at least five business days following Ivory Parent’s receipt of written notice from Toro advising that Toro’s Board of Directors intends to take such action and the basis therefor (which notice shall include (A) if applicable, copies of any such Toro Superior Proposal, any proposed Toro Alternative Acquisition Agreement, and any other relevant proposed transaction agreements, (B) if applicable, the identity of the Person who made such Toro Superior Proposal and the material terms and conditions thereof, and (C) in the case of notice given other than in connection with a Toro Superior Proposal, a reasonably detailed description of the development or change in connection with which Toro’s

- 57 -

Board of Directors has given such notice). After providing such notice and before effecting such Toro Change in Recommendation or Toro Superior Proposal Termination, (I) Toro shall, during such five business day–period, negotiate in good faith with Ivory Parent and its Representatives, to the extent Ivory Parent wishes to negotiate, with respect to any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that may be proposed by Ivory Parent, and (II) in determining whether it may still under the terms of this Agreement make a Toro Change in Recommendation or effect a Toro Superior Proposal Termination, the Board of Directors of Toro shall take into account any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by Ivory Parent and any other information provided by Ivory Parent in response to such notice during such five business day–period. Any amendment to the financial terms or conditions or other material terms of any Toro Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Toro Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 5.03(f), including with respect to the notice period referred to in this Section 5.03(f), except that the five business day–period shall be three business days for such purposes in any such case.

(g) From the Execution Date until the Effective Time, (i) Toro and its Board of Directors shall not take any action to exempt any person from the restrictions on “business combinations” contained in Section 203 of the DGCL or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply, (ii) Toro shall not terminate, amend, modify, or waive any provision of any “standstill” or similar obligation to which Toro or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, and (iii) if and to the extent requested by Ivory Parent, Toro shall enforce under applicable Law the provisions of any such agreement, but any cost of litigation commenced and pursued as requested by Ivory Parent shall be borne by Ivory Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Toro may take (or in the case of clause (iii), not take) any action described in the preceding sentence if Toro’s Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action (or taking such action) would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law; provided, however, that Toro shall advise Ivory Parent in advance that Toro is taking such action and the identity of the Person with respect to which Toro is taking such action; provided, further, that the foregoing shall not prevent Toro from permitting a Person to orally request the waiver of a “standstill” or similar obligation.

(h) Nothing contained in this Section 5.03 shall prohibit Toro from complying with its disclosure obligations under applicable U.S. federal or state Law with regard to a Toro Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that this paragraph (h) shall not be deemed to permit Toro or Toro’s Board of Directors to effect a Toro Change in Recommendation other than in accordance with Section 5.03(f) (it being understood that any such communication that expressly reaffirms the Toro Recommendation shall be deemed not to be a Toro Change in Recommendation).

Section 5.04. Registration Statement and Proxy Statement; Information Supplied.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Execution Date, (i) Toro and CombineCo shall prepare and file with the SEC a proxy statement and prospectus to be sent to the Toro stockholders relating to the Toro Stockholders Meeting (the “Proxy Statement”), and (ii) CombineCo shall prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement on Form S-4 to register under the Securities Act the issuance of shares of CombineCo Common Stock in connection with the Ivory Contribution and the conversion of the issued and outstanding shares of Toro Common Stock into the right to receive shares of CombineCo Common Stock in connection with the Toro Merger (including the Proxy Statement constituting a part thereof, the “Registration Statement”). Each of the parties hereto shall use its respective reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as applicable, as promptly as practicable after such filing. Promptly after the Registration Statement is declared effective under the Securities Act, Toro shall mail the Proxy Statement to its stockholders. Each of the parties hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to satisfy prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement all necessary state securities Law or “blue sky” notice requirements (if any) in connection with the Transactions and pay all expenses incident thereto.

- 58 -

(b) No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement will be made by CombineCo, and no filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Proxy Statement will be made by Toro, in each case without providing the other parties hereto a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (other than, in the case of the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement, any filing, amendment or supplement in connection with a Toro Change in Recommendation). Each of the parties shall promptly provide the other with copies of all such filings, amendments or supplements to the extent not readily publicly available. Each of the parties shall furnish all information concerning such Person and its Affiliates to the other and shall provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by the other to be included therein and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other in the preparation of the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement, and the resolution of any comments received from the SEC. If at any time prior to the receipt of the Toro Requisite Vote, any information relating to Toro, CombineCo, Ivory Parent, Ivory HoldCo, Bluefin, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, or officers, is discovered by Toro, CombineCo, Ivory Parent or Ivory HoldCo that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the Proxy Statement, so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by applicable Law, disseminated to the Toro stockholders. The parties shall notify each other promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement or for additional information and shall supply each other with copies of (i) all material correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Proxy Statement, the Registration Statement, or the Transactions and (ii) all orders of the SEC relating to the Registration Statement. No response to any comments from the SEC or its staff relating to the Proxy Statement or the Registration Statement will be made by Toro or CombineCo, in each case without providing Ivory HoldCo a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon unless pursuant to a telephone call initiated by the SEC. The parties will cause the Proxy Statement and the Registration Statement to comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Section 5.05. Toro Stockholders Meeting.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective, Toro shall take all action necessary in accordance with applicable Laws and Toro’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws, to duly convene and hold a meeting of the holders of shares of Toro Common Stock for the purpose of obtaining the Toro Requisite Vote (the “Toro Stockholders Meeting”). Unless otherwise agreed to by Ivory Parent and subject to the other provisions of this Section 5.05, the Toro Stockholders Meeting shall be held not more than 45 days after the date the Registration Statement is declared effective.

(b) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 5.03(f), (i) Toro’s Board of Directors shall include the Toro Recommendation in the Proxy Statement and recommend at the Toro Stockholders Meeting that the holders of shares of Toro Common Stock adopt this Agreement, and (ii) Toro and Toro’s Board of Directors shall use their reasonable best efforts to solicit and obtain the Toro Requisite Vote.

- 59 -

(c) Toro may adjourn or postpone the Toro Stockholders Meeting on one or more occasions to a date not more than 20 days after the date for which the Toro Stockholders Meeting was originally scheduled (in addition to any adjournments or postponements required by applicable Law) if Toro or Ivory Parent reasonably determines that (i) sufficient votes to obtain the Toro Requisite Vote have not been obtained or (ii) an insufficient number of shares of Toro Common Stock will be represented to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Toro Stockholders Meeting. Toro also may postpone or adjourn the Toro Stockholders Meeting to allow reasonable additional time for the filing or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that Toro has determined, after consultation with outside legal counsel, is reasonably likely to be required under applicable Law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by the Toro stockholders prior to the Toro Stockholders Meeting. After Toro has established a record date for the Toro Stockholders Meeting (which record date shall be established in consultation with and after reasonably taking into account any input from Ivory Parent), Toro shall not change the record date without the prior written consent of Ivory Parent, unless required to do so by applicable Law or Toro’s bylaws.

and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, report the Ivory Contribution and the Toro Merger in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and shall not take any contrary Tax position, except to the extent required pursuant to a change in applicable Law after the Execution Date, a breach of the second or third sentence of this Section 5.17(a), or a “determination” under Section 1313(a) of the Code.

(b) If, in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement or any other filing required by applicable Law or the SEC’s review thereof, the SEC requests or requires that a tax opinion with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Toro Merger be prepared and submitted (a “Tax Opinion”), or Toro otherwise requests a Tax Opinion from its tax advisors, then (i) the parties shall each use their respective reasonable best efforts to deliver to Toro’s tax advisors customary Tax representation letters reasonably satisfactory to such tax advisors, dated and executed as of such date(s) as determined to be reasonably necessary by such tax advisors in connection with the preparation of the Tax Opinion and/or the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement or other filing required by applicable Law and (ii) in the case of a Tax Opinion requested or required by the SEC, Toro shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its tax advisors to furnish a Tax Opinion addressed to Toro, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, satisfactory to the SEC (and for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed this Section 5.17(b) does not require that a Tax Opinion reach any particular legal conclusion regarding the Tax treatment of the Toro Merger).

(c) The parties hereto agree that the Toro Merger Consideration is not subject to the stock repurchase excise tax under Section 4501 of the Code (the “Section 4501 Tax”) under current U.S. federal Tax Law. If, prior to the Closing, a party (i) reasonably determines that there has been a change in the U.S. federal income Tax Law which would subject any portion of the Toro Merger Consideration to the Section 4501 Tax or (ii) becomes aware of any fact that could reasonably be expected to subject any portion of the Toro Merger Consideration to Section 4501 Tax, the parties shall cooperate reasonably and in good faith to seek to change the method or structure of effecting the Transactions (including the Ivory Contribution and the Toro Merger) so as to accomplish the same result as the structure contemplated by the Transaction Documents in a manner that minimizes the Section 4501 Tax; provided that no such change shall (i) materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) alter or change the nature or mix of the Toro Merger Consideration, or (iii) increase any unreimbursed cost of Ivory Parent or its Subsidiaries. To the extent the Toro Merger Consideration is subject to the Section 4501 Tax, CombineCo shall pay or cause to be paid any Section 4501 Tax and shall file or cause to be filed all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect thereto.

(d) On the Closing Date, (i) Toro shall provide to CombineCo a certification complying with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h), together with a notice to the IRS, to the effect that Toro has not been a United States real property holding corporation for the five-year period ending on the Closing Date, and (ii) Bluefin shall provide to CombineCo a certification complying with the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h), together with a notice to the IRS, to the effect that Bluefin has not been a United States real property holding corporation for the five-year period ending on the Closing Date.

Section 5.18. Financing Matters. Toro and CombineCo shall use reasonable best efforts to enter into prior to (but effective upon) the Closing a revolving credit facility or other senior lending facility (the “New Debt Facility”) with commitments of at least $250,000,000 (the “New Facility Amount”) to be used (together with Toro’s and its Subsidiaries’ available cash on hand) to satisfy Toro’s obligations under the Toro Indentures and for general working capital purposes. The New Debt Facility shall be on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Ivory Parent (who shall have the right to review and comment on drafts of the definitive documentation for the New Debt Facility, which comments Toro and CombineCo shall seek to address in good faith), it being agreed that Toro and CombineCo shall use reasonable best efforts to provide that the New Debt Facility will not require the entry into deposit account

- 69 -

control agreements in connection with the granting of any security interest thereunder. Ivory Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, reasonably cooperate with Toro’s and CombineCo’s efforts to obtain the New Debt Facility, including by (i) providing reasonable assistance in the preparation of customary marketing and syndication materials and cooperating with the marketing efforts for the New Debt Facility; (ii) participating as necessary in a reasonable number of customary meetings and presentations with prospective lenders and investors and in due diligence sessions, as applicable; (iii) reasonably cooperating with any financing sources or prospective financing sources and their respective agents’ due diligence, including providing access to documentation reasonably requested by any such Person, including information in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering Laws; and (iv) taking such other actions that are reasonable and customary in connection with bank financing transactions generally. In the event that, despite using their reasonable best efforts, Toro and CombineCo are unable to enter into the New Debt Facility at or prior to the Closing, then, at the Closing, Ivory Parent shall provide a term loan credit facility to CombineCo with aggregate commitments equal to the New Facility Amount on the terms and conditions specified in Annex 5.18 (the “Ivory Credit Facility”). Following the Execution Date, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith definitive documents for the Ivory Credit Facility.

Section 5.19. Integration Planning. After the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date, Toro and Ivory Parent shall establish a mechanism, subject to applicable Law, reasonably acceptable to both parties by which the parties will confer on a regular and continued basis regarding the general status of the ongoing operations of Toro and its Subsidiaries and the Bluefin Business and reasonably necessary integration planning matters and communicate and consult with specific persons to be identified by each party to the other with respect to the foregoing.

Section 5.20. Confidentiality Agreement. In connection with the execution of this Agreement, the parties to the Confidentiality Agreement have agreed to terminate, and in the case of Ivory Parent to cause its applicable Subsidiary to terminate, the Confidentiality Agreement effective as of the Closing.

Section 5.21. Litigation Support.

(a) Toro shall promptly notify Ivory Parent of any stockholder demands, litigations, arbitrations, or other similar Proceedings (including derivative claims) commenced against Toro or its directors or officers relating to this Agreement, any of the Transactions, or any matters relating thereto (collectively, “Transaction Litigation”) and shall keep Ivory Parent informed regarding any such Transaction Litigation. Toro (i) shall give Ivory Parent the opportunity to participate in (but not control) the defense and settlement of any Transaction Litigation, (ii) keep Ivory Parent reasonably apprised on a prompt basis of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to any Transaction Litigation, and Ivory Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation, which Toro shall consider in good faith, and (iii) shall not settle or offer, compromise, or agree to settle or compromise, or take any other action to settle, compromise, or moot, any Transaction Litigation without Ivory Parent’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

(b) From and after Closing and if and for so long as Ivory Parent, Ivory HoldCo, or any of their respective Affiliates are prosecuting, contesting, or defending any Proceeding by a third party in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction relating to, in connection with, or arising from any Ivory Excluded Asset or Ivory Excluded Liability (including any Ivory Excluded Litigation), CombineCo shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (including the Bluefin Group members) and its and their respective officers and employees to, reasonably cooperate with Ivory Parent and Ivory HoldCo and their counsel in the defense or prosecution of any such Proceeding, whether arising before or after the Closing, including the

- 70 -

Ivory Excluded Litigation. Such cooperation shall include making available to Ivory Parent, Ivory HoldCo, and their Affiliates all personnel and providing such testimony and access to all pertinent records, materials, and information in the possession or under the control of CombineCo and any of its Subsidiaries relating thereto as is reasonably requested by Ivory Parent or Ivory HoldCo. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ivory Parent and Ivory HoldCo will have full authority to make all decisions and determine all actions to be taken with respect to the defense, settlement, and appeal of the Ivory Excluded Litigation and, subject to Article VIII, any such other Proceeding.

(c) From and after Closing and if and for so long as CombineCo any of its Subsidiaries are prosecuting, contesting, or defending any Proceeding by a third party in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction relating to, in connection with, or arising from the conduct of the Bluefin Business and that constitutes a Bluefin Assumed Liability, Ivory Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (other than CombineCo and its Subsidiaries) and its and their respective officers and employees to, reasonably cooperate with CombineCo and its counsel in the defense or prosecution of any such Proceeding. Such cooperation shall include making available to CombineCo and its Subsidiaries all personnel and providing such testimony and access to all pertinent records, materials, and information in the possession or under the control of Ivory Parent and any of its Subsidiaries relating thereto as is reasonably requested by CombineCo or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to Article VIII, CombineCo will have full authority to make all decisions and determine all actions to be taken with respect to the defense, settlement, and appeal of any such Proceeding.

(c) Each party acknowledges and agrees that the agreements contained in this Section 7.05 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, no party would have entered into this Agreement; accordingly, if Toro fails to pay the Toro Termination Fee promptly when due, and, in order to obtain payment thereof, Ivory Parent commences a suit which results in a judgment against Toro requiring payment of the Toro Termination Fee or any portion thereof, Toro shall pay Ivory Parent its costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the Toro Termination Fee at the prime rate of Citibank, N.A. in effect on the date that the Toro Termination Fee was required to be paid from such date through the date of full payment thereof.

Section 8.03. Third Party Claims.

(a) The party seeking indemnification under Section 8.01 or Section 8.02 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt notice in writing to the party against whom indemnity is to be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any Proceeding by any third party (“Third-Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under such Section. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third-Party Claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim and shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense, in each case at its own expense; provided that prior to assuming control of such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall, within thirty days after delivery of a notice by the Indemnified Party of such Third-Party Claim, give written notice to the Indemnified Party that it is assuming and controlling the defense of such Third-Party Claim and acknowledging that it could (based on the facts set forth in the notice by the Indemnified Party of such Third-Party Claim and without prejudice to the Indemnifying Party’s right to subsequently assert as a defense to its indemnification obligations under this Article VIII any material facts or circumstances not known to the Indemnifying Party at the time of its assumption of such defense) have an indemnity obligation for the Damages resulting from such Third-Party Claim as provided under this Article VIII; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the defense of any Third-Party Claim, and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if (A) the Third-Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (B) the Third-Party Claim seeks as its primary remedy non-monetary, injunctive or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (C) the amount in dispute is reasonably likely to exceed the maximum amount for which the Indemnifying Party can then be liable pursuant to this Article VIII, (D) it is reasonably likely that the Indemnified Party (as opposed to the Indemnifying Party) will bear a greater portion of the Damages with respect to such Third-Party Claim (after taking into account the application of the limitations set forth in Section 8.04 and any other pending or resolved claims for indemnification), or (E) the Third-Party Claim is governed by the defense procedures set forth in any other Transaction Document. If the Indemnifying Party shall so assume the control of the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of such Third-Party Claim if (i) the settlement does not expressly and unconditionally release the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from all Liabilities with respect to such Third-Party Claim, (ii) the settlement imposes injunctive or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iii) the settlement includes the admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iv) the Indemnifying Party does not pay all amounts in such settlement or (v) the settlement creates any Lien on any assets of any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates.

Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have actually prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

The amount of any Damages shall be net of (i) any recovery or benefit (including insurance and indemnification) paid to the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, and if the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates receives such recovery or benefit after receipt of payment from the Indemnifying Party, then the amount of such recovery or benefit, net of reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery or benefit, shall be paid to the Indemnifying Party and (ii) any Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party (as a reduction in cash Tax liability of the Indemnified Party in the taxable year in which such Indemnified Party receives the indemnification payment from the Indemnifying Party or a prior taxable year), arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Damages (determined on a with and without basis). No party will be liable to any other party for Damages under this Article VIII to the extent such Damages or Liabilities represented by such Damages were taken into account in the calculation of Working Capital or the Bluefin Non-Current Liabilities Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 2.05.

(c) If any CombineCo Indemnified Person shall allege or otherwise notify Ivory Parent or any of its Affiliates, pursuant to this Article VIII or otherwise, of any breach or alleged breach of any representation or warranty in Section 4.20(b) (Sufficiency), then without limiting the rights of any such CombineCo Indemnified Persons under Section 8.01(b), Ivory Parent shall have the opportunity to cure such breach to the extent such breach is curable in such manner, by providing additional assets or services under the Transition Services Agreement, the Supplemental Transition Services Agreements, or otherwise on substantially the same basis and under substantially the same terms as contemplated by the Transition Services Agreement, the Supplemental Transition Services Agreements, or this Agreement, as applicable.

(d) For purposes of this Article VIII, both the existence of any breach of any representation or warranty contained in Section 4.20(b) (Sufficiency), and the amount of any Damages resulting from such breach, shall be determined without giving effect to any “material,” “ materiality,” “Ivory Material Adverse Effect,” or similar qualifications contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty or any definition contained therein.

(e) No knowledge of or investigation by or on behalf of a party shall constitute or effectuate a waiver of such party’s right to enforce any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation contained in this Agreement (to the extent set forth herein) or in any way limit such party’s right to indemnification under this Article VIII.

(f) Each party to this Agreement shall, and shall cause its respective controlled Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Damage indemnifiable under this Article VIII upon and after becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any such Damage.

(g) For purposes of this Article VIII, any and all Damages of an Ivory Indemnified Person shall (i) take into account the relative equity ownership of Ivory Parent and its Affiliates in CombineCo and (ii) expressly include the amount required to gross up such Ivory Indemnified Person to take into account the portion of any related indemnification payment indirectly borne by Ivory Parent and its Affiliates by reason of their relative equity ownership in CombineCo.

Section 8.06. Exclusion of Other Remedies. From and after the Closing Date, the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 8.01 and Section 8.02, and the related provisions of this Article VIII with respect thereto, will constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties for any Damages based on, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the indemnification obligations set forth in such Sections of this Article VIII, except for remedies involving specific performance or other equitable relief pursuant to Section 9.15 or in case of actual fraud.

(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. The parties accordingly agree that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of actual damages (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable Law or inequitable for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(b) To the extent any party hereto brings any Proceeding to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement when expressly available to such party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Proceeding is pending, plus 20 business days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Proceeding.

Annex B-8

From and after the Execution Date until the date that is nine months after the Closing, with respect to the Shared Contracts and those statements of works thereunder or addenda thereto (each such statement of work or addendum, an “Ivory SOW”), Ivory Parent shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, use its commercially reasonable efforts (but without any payment of money (other than de minimis amounts) or any obligation to make any concession of any nature) to cause the counterparties to each such Shared Contract and any related Ivory SOW(s) to enter into a separate Contract with a Bluefin Group member resulting in such Bluefin Group member having rights and obligations under such separate Contract that are substantially similar in all material respects to those rights and obligations, in each case solely to the extent related to the Bluefin Business, under the applicable Shared Contract and Ivory SOW(s) (each such separate Contract, a “Bluefin Replacement Contract”); provided, however, that (i) Ivory Parent shall consult in good faith with CombineCo with respect to negotiating the Bluefin Replacement Contracts with the applicable counterparties, and Ivory Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause CombineCo to be provided the opportunity to participate in all material negotiations, discussions, meetings, and other material communications with such counterparties, and (ii) if, prior to the Closing, a Bluefin Replacement Contract cannot be obtained in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Toro, then from and after the Closing Ivory Parent shall, and shall cause its appliable Subsidiaries to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (x) continue to negotiate such Bluefin Replacement Contract with the applicable counterparties (continuing to consult in good faith with Toro with respect to negotiating such Bluefin Replacement Contract with the applicable counterparties and continuing to cause Toro to be provided the opportunity to participate in all material negotiations, discussions, meetings, and other material communications with such counterparties) and (y) make the applicable Ivory Shared Contract and Ivory SOW(s) available to a Bluefin Group member pursuant to arrangements by which such Bluefin Group member will receive the benefits and assume the Liabilities of such Ivory Shared Contract and Ivory SOW(s) (in the case of such benefits and Liabilities, to the extent such benefits and Liabilities would have constituted a Bluefin Transferred Asset, with respect to such benefits, and a Bluefin Assumed Liability, with respect to such Liabilities, in either case had such Ivory Shared Contract and Ivory SOW(s) been Bluefin Transferred Contracts), in each case solely to the extent related to the Bluefin Business, until the first to occur of (1) the expiration of such Ivory Shared Contract or Ivory SOW(s) (as applicable) in accordance with its terms and (2) the termination of such Ivory Shared Contract or such Ivory SOW(s); provided, further, that Ivory Parent shall not, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries not to, terminate such Ivory Shared Contract or such Ivory SOW(s) (as applicable) without CombineCo’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld, or delayed (it being understood that the lapse of any “term” of any such Ivory Shared Contract or such Ivory SOW(s) shall not be deemed to be a termination for these purposes).

Wrong Pockets. If, following the Closing, Ivory Parent, on the one hand, or CombineCo, on the other hand (or any of their respective Subsidiaries, excluding CombineCo and its Subsidiaries (in the case of Ivory) and including the Bluefin Group members (in the case of CombineCo)) shall receive or otherwise possess any asset, property, or right that should belong to the other party pursuant to this Agreement, such Person shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such asset to the Person so entitled thereto at no cost. In furtherance of the foregoing, CombineCo undertakes and agrees to, or cause its Subsidiaries (including the Bluefin Group members) to, promptly transfer any Ivory Excluded Asset to Ivory Parent or its designee and promptly forward or remit to Ivory Parent or its designee any payments or mail received by CombineCo or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Bluefin Group members) on account of any Ivory Excluded Asset; and Ivory Parent undertakes and agrees to, or cause its Subsidiaries (other than CombineCo and its Subsidiaries) to, promptly transfer any Bluefin Transferred Asset to CombineCo or its designee and to promptly forward and remit to CombineCo or its designee any payment or mail received by Ivory Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than CombineCo and its Subsidiaries) on account of any Bluefin Transferred Asset. Prior to any such transfer, the Person then holding or possessing such asset shall hold such asset in trust for such other Person.

Annex B-9

Insurance. From and after the Closing, (a) the Bluefin Group members, the Bluefin Business, and the Bluefin Transferred Assets shall cease to be insured by any Ivory Retained Group member’s insurance policies or by any of the Ivory Retained Group members’ self-insured programs (collectively, the “Ivory Insurance Policies”), and (b) neither CombineCo nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any access, right or title to, or interest in, any such insurance policies to cover the Bluefin Group members, the Bluefin Business, any Bluefin Transferred Assets, any Bluefin Assumed Liability, or any other Liability arising from the ownership or operation of the Bluefin Business or the ownership or use of any Bluefin Transferred Asset; provided that the Bluefin Group members shall continue to have the benefit of any Ivory Insurance Policy that, by its terms, covers and permits claims by them in respect of acts, omissions and events occurring prior to the Closing and to the extent relating to the Bluefin Business, any Transferred Asset or any Assumed Liability. Ivory HoldCo and its Affiliates may amend, effective at or prior to the Closing, any insurance policies in the manner it deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 7. Except as provided in this Section 7, from and after the Closing, CombineCo shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its ownership and operation of the Bluefin Group members, the Bluefin Business, the ownership and use of the Bluefin Transferred Assets, the Bluefin Assumed Liabilities, and any other Liability arising from any of the foregoing.

Intercompany Accounts and Contracts. Effective as of immediately prior to the Closing, except for the Transaction Documents, all intercompany accounts between any of the Ivory Retained Group members, on the one hand, and any of the Bluefin Group members, on the other hand, shall be settled and paid in full (regardless of the terms of payment of such intercompany accounts), and all Contracts between any of the Ivory Retained Group members, on the one hand, and any of the Bluefin Group members, on the other hand, shall be terminated, in each case without further Liability to CombineCo or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, all intercompany notes created in connection with the Separation between any of the Ivory Retained Group members, on the one hand, and any of the Bluefin Group members, on the other hand, shall be deemed settled as of the Closing, in each case without further Liability to CombineCo or any of its Subsidiaries.

Release of Credit Support. Each of the parties hereto will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the unconditional release of (a) the Ivory Retained Group members from each of the financial guarantees, letters of credit, financial assurances, surety bonds, and performance bonds, relating to the Bluefin Business or otherwise relating to the Bluefin Transferred Assets, including effecting such release through CombineCo’s or its Subsidiaries’ provision of financial guarantees or other credit support or the substitution in all respects of CombineCo for any of the Ivory Retained Group members that is a party to any such Credit Support Instrument so that CombineCo or the applicable Subsidiary of CombineCo shall be solely responsible for the obligations of such Credit Support Instrument, and (b) CombineCo and the Bluefin Group members from each Credit Support Instrument to the extent relating to any businesses other than the Bluefin Business or otherwise relating to the Ivory Excluded Assets, including effecting such release through any of the Ivory Retained Group members’ provision of financial guarantees or other credit support or the substitution in all respects of any Ivory Retained Group members for any Bluefin Group members party to any such Credit Support Instrument so that the applicable Ivory Retained Group members shall be solely responsible for the obligations of such Credit Support Instrument; provided, however, that in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b) above, any such release or substitution must be effected pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to CombineCo and Ivory HoldCo. From and after the Closing, (i) CombineCo shall indemnify and hold harmless the Ivory Retained Group members for any and all Damages arising from or relating to the Credit Support Instruments to the extent relating to the Bluefin Business or otherwise relating to the Bluefin Transferred Assets and (ii) Ivory Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless

Annex B-10

CombineCo and the Bluefin Group members for any and all Damages arising from or relating to the Credit Support Instruments to the extent relating to any Ivory Retained Business or otherwise relating to the Ivory Excluded Assets. In the event that such unconditional release is not obtained prior to the Closing, each party shall continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the foregoing release and substitution as promptly as reasonably practicable in accordance with this Section 9.

10.

Use of Names. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date (and in any event within 12 months after the Closing Date), and subject to the Brand License Agreement, CombineCo shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cease to use any Name incorporating “Informa,” any Ivory Tech Retained Brands or any Seller Logo or any derivation of the foregoing that would reasonably be expected to be confused therewith, or any other Name confusingly similar thereto (the “Seller Marks”), from any materials and assets included in the Bluefin Transferred Assets (collectively, the “Seller Mark Items”), and CombineCo shall be responsible for the removal, destruction, and disposal of any remaining Seller Mark Items bearing any Seller Marks in the possession of CombineCo or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) CombineCo shall not be required to remove, destroy, or dispose of the Seller Marks or Seller Mark Items from (i) archived Bluefin Transferred Business Records (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, stationery, promotional materials, advertising, or other public or customer-facing Bluefin Transferred Business Records that are not archived), (ii) any customer agreements or documentation issued to customers prior to the Closing Date, or (iii) any other non-public-facing documents in existence prior to the Execution Date that are used for internal purposes only; and (b) nothing in this Section 10 shall prevent CombineCo or any of its Subsidiaries from using the Seller Marks in a manner that would not constitute an infringement under applicable Law. All costs and fees associated with the removal, destruction, and disposal of the Seller Marks from all Seller Mark Items after the Closing shall be borne and paid solely by CombineCo.

11.

Bank and Merchant Accounts. From and after the Execution Date and prior to the Closing, Ivory HoldCo and Toro shall each use its commercially reasonable efforts to identify and obtain any and all bank and merchant accounts that may reasonably be required for the Bluefin Business to continue to operate immediately after the Closing in the ordinary course of business (taking into account, for these purposes, the Bluefin Transferred Bank and Merchant Accounts).

Annex B-12

ANNEX C

SEPARATION PLAN—EMPLOYEE MATTERS ANNEX

1.	The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that as at the Execution Date:

(a) there are Bluefin In-Scope Employees who are employed by Bluefin Subsidiaries who the parties intend shall remain employed by the Bluefin Subsidiaries on Closing;

(b) there are Bluefin In-Scope Employees who are currently employed by an Ivory Retained Group member who the parties intend shall become employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary, another member of the CombineCo Group or a Professional Employer Organization (“PEO”) either on or following Closing;

(c) there are Bluefin Subsidiaries that currently employ Non-Bluefin Employees who the parties intend shall become employed by a member of the Ivory Retained Group either prior to or on Closing; and

(d) there are Bluefin In-Scope Employees employed by a PEO. In each case, the PEO is engaged by a Bluefin Subsidiary and the parties intend that such Bluefin In-Scope Employees will remain employed by the relevant PEO on Closing.

2.	The parties further acknowledge that not all Bluefin In-Scope Employees will be employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary at Closing but instead:

(a) certain Bluefin In-Scope Employees (the “STSA Employees”) will remain employed by the Ivory Retained Group for a period post-Closing and will provide their services to a Bluefin Subsidiary from Closing until such time as the parties agree that such STSA Employees will become employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary; and

(b) the STSA U.S. Employees will, by Closing, if necessary to ensure an orderly transition of the provision of employee benefits post-Closing, be employed by the Ivory Retained Group and their services will be provided to a Bluefin Subsidiary from Closing until such time as the parties agree that such STSA U.S. Employees will become employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary.

In order to ensure that (a) certain Bluefin In-Scope Employees are employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary from Closing (known as “Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees”) and (b) there are no Non-Bluefin Employees employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary at Closing, it will be necessary for Ivory Parent to take or to cause to be taken certain steps prior to Closing to effect an employee separation.

4.	Part A of this Annex C sets out the steps which Ivory Parent intends to take or cause to be taken to ensure the Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees are employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary as at Closing.

5.	Part B of this Annex C sets out the steps which Ivory Parent intends to take or cause to be taken with the objective that the STSA Employees are employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary or another member of the CombineCo Group as at the relevant STSA End Date.

6.	Part C of this Annex C sets out other employee matters which the parties have agreed in relation to the Bluefin In-Scope Employees from the date of this Agreement.

Annex C-1

PART A

PRE-CLOSING EMPLOYEE SEPARATION STEPS

7.	The parties acknowledge that Ivory Parent intends to take or cause to be taken the following steps on or before Closing:

(a) in respect of each Non-Bluefin Employee, Ivory Parent will cause the transfer of the employment of such individual from the relevant Bluefin Subsidiary into an Ivory Retained Group member (whether pursuant to an Automatic Transfer Regime, an Offer and Acceptance Process or otherwise);

(b) in respect of each Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee who is employed by an Ivory Retained Group member, Ivory Parent will or will cause a member of the Ivory Retained Group to:

(i) transfer the employment of that Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee to a Bluefin Subsidiary (whether pursuant to the Transfer Regulations, an Offer and Acceptance Process or otherwise and subject to the Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee’s right to object to that transfer (if any) under the Transfer Regulations, or otherwise refuse to agree to the transfer of employment);

(ii) take the necessary reasonable steps, as mutually agreed with Toro, to ensure that the Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee is employed by a PEO engaged by CombineCo or a CombineCo Subsidiary from Closing; or

(iii) take necessary reasonable steps, as mutually agreed with Toro, to ensure that that Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee is employed by a CombineCo Subsidiary from Closing, if appropriate;

subject always to any information and consultation requirements required by applicable law, in respect of which Toro will cooperate and cause its Subsidiaries to cooperate.

Toro agrees to provide Ivory Parent (or another member of the Ivory Retained Group as the Ivory Parent may direct) with reasonable cooperation and assistance to facilitate the steps set out in paragraph 7 above. Ivory Parent agrees to provide Toro with reasonable advance notice, in no event less than 20 business days prior to the Closing, specifying the action to be taken under paragraph 7(b) with respect to each Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee (including the identity of the Bluefin Subsidiary, PEO or CombineCo Subsidiary (as applicable) envisaged to employ the Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee from the Closing).

In respect of the Central Shared Services Employees, Ivory Parent and Toro will enter into discussions in good faith to determine whether any such person should be designated as a Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee or a STSA Employee and if that person, or any other person who should have been a Continuing Bluefin Employee at Closing, is not so treated, Ivory Parent and Toro will take reasonable steps to ensure that such Person becomes a Continuing Bluefin Employee as soon as possible following Closing.

10.

In addition, if Ivory Parent and Toro mutually identify in good faith any person who has been designated a Bluefin In-Scope Employee and who should not be designated as a Continuing Bluefin Employee as of the Closing, then Ivory Parent and Toro will take reasonable steps to ensure that such Person does not become a Continuing Bluefin Employee and is retained by or transferred to an Ivory Employer and is treated as Out-of-Scope Personnel.

Annex C-2

11.

Unless otherwise agreed with Toro (Toro acting in good faith and such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) Ivory Parent shall ensure that the number of employees identified by Ivory Parent as being Bluefin In-Scope Employees does not increase by more than five percent between the Execution Date and the Closing Date.

PART B

POST-CLOSING EMPLOYEE STEPS

Supplemental Transitional Services Arrangements.

12.	The parties agree that in respect of each STSA Employee, Ivory Parent and Toro shall take the necessary reasonable steps to ensure that such STSA Employee can provide his/her services to the relevant Bluefin Subsidiary from Closing pursuant to an STSA and in particular:

(a) for each country where an STSA Employee is based, Ivory Parent and Toro shall or shall cause the relevant Ivory Retained Group member and the relevant Bluefin Subsidiary to enter into an STSA pursuant to which the Ivory Retained Group member shall provide the services of the relevant STSA Employee for a period of time beginning at the Effective Time and continuing until such time as the parties agree that such STSA Employee can be employed by a Bluefin Subsidiary or a PEO or another member of the CombineCo Group;

(b) the STSA for the relevant country shall be based on the Template U.S. STSA and Template ROW STSA, as appropriate, subject to such changes as are necessary to reflect the agreed termination date, local legislation, customs, process or tax requirements and as mutually agreed to by Toro and Ivory Parent;

(c) in respect of the relevant STSA Employees, Toro and Ivory Parent shall cause the relevant legal entities to cooperate in good faith to enter into the relevant STSA on or prior to Closing;

(d) the parties shall cooperate in good faith to identify legal entities (which may be PEOs) that are capable of employing STSA Employees and fulfilling the role as an employer of the STSA Employees following the completion of such STSA Employees period of service under an STSA and are legally permitted to employ such employees in accordance with the terms set out at paragraph 15 below (each, a “New Employer Entity”);

(e) Toro shall, at least ten weeks prior to the anticipated date of termination of the relevant STSA, notify Ivory Parent of the full name and company details of the New Employer Entity; and

(f) the STSA Employee shall become employed by the New Employer Entity pursuant to the process set out in paragraphs 15 to 18 below.

13.

In the event that the arrangements under any ROW STSA are challenged (including by a regulator or the authorities in any applicable jurisdiction), or provision of the services under the ROW STSA would put the relevant Ivory Subsidiary or CombineCo Subsidiary in breach of the rules of any entity or authority which regulates the business of either of those parties, Ivory Parent and CombineCo will work together to address such concerns and agree upon any reasonably necessary amendments to the STSA services, or if not possible, other reasonable workarounds.

Annex C-3

Employment Offers for STSA Employees Post-Closing.

14.

The parties acknowledge that it is intended that each STSA Employee (other than the STSA Automatic Transfer Employees) will be offered employment with the relevant New Employer Entity, to take effect from termination of the relevant STSA (such termination date, the “STSA End Date”; and such employees, the “STSA Offer and Acceptance Employees”).

15.

Ivory Parent having approved the form of offer letter and having been provided with a table setting out the proposed material compensation terms (salary, target annual bonus, and, as applicable, commission) for each STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee in advance of it being sent to the STSA Offer and Acceptance Employees (with a reasonable opportunity to comment), CombineCo shall cause the New Employer Entity to make an offer of employment to each STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee who remains continuously employed through the date of such offer which:

(a) is on terms, conditions and benefits that are Substantially Similar when compared to the terms, conditions and benefits that applied to such STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee immediately prior to such offer;

(b) is made on a date which is at least 28 days prior to the relevant STSA End Date (the last such date an offer may be made under this paragraph 15(b), the “STSA Offer Deadline Date”) to take effect on a day immediately after the relevant STSA End Date and shall be effective on the same date for all STSA Offer and Acceptance Employees in the same jurisdiction, except where an extension is required in accordance with paragraph (c);

(c) is open for acceptance for at least 7 days after the date on which the offer is made (except where an extension is necessary to accommodate the applications envisaged by paragraphs 34 to 35 of this Annex C in which case the offer will remain open for the period mutually agreed by Toro and Ivory Parent acting reasonably) (the “Visa Long-Stop Date”); and

(d) recognizes Accrued Leave Entitlements and requires the STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee (to the extent permissible by applicable Law) to agree to “roll over” all and any right to receive their Accrued Leave Entitlements and End of Service Entitlements to the New Employer Entity and agreeing to waive his/her right to receive any other Severance Payment from the Ivory Employer in accordance with paragraph 17.

16.

If an STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee accepts an Offer, Ivory Parent and Toro agree that the employment of that STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee with the Ivory Employer shall terminate at 11:59 p.m. local time on the day immediately prior to the Transfer Date and that he/she shall become employed by the New Employer Entity with effect from the Transfer Date (and any such employee that commences employment with the New Employer Entity shall become known as a “STSA Transferred Employee”).

17.	Ivory Parent and Toro further agree that:

any End of Service Entitlements and Accrued Leave Entitlements that have accrued up to the Transfer Date will not be paid to the STSA Transferred Employee upon the termination of his/her employment with the Ivory Employer and the New Employer Entity shall be responsible for the accrued End of Service Entitlements and Accrued Leave Entitlements (as at the Transfer Date) payable to the STSA Transferred Employee; and

Annex C-4

that, together with relevant member of the Ivory Retained Group, the New Employer Entity will, as set forth in paragraph 15(d) of this Annex C, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such STSA Transferred Employee will sign a waiver of claims against the relevant member of the Ivory Retained Group and Ivory Employer (in a form provided by Ivory Parent), including his or her right to receive any End of Service Entitlements and Accrued Leave Entitlements and any other Severance Payment on the termination of his employment with the Ivory Employer.

18.

If an STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee is not made an offer by a New Employer Entity that complies with the requirements of paragraph 15 of this Annex C, or if an STSA Offer and Acceptance does not transfer to CombineCo or the relevant CombineCo Subsidiary because the Offer expires as a result of their Visa Application being outstanding by the Visa Long-Stop Date, then CombineCo shall indemnify and hold harmless Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employer and promptly reimburse, following demand by Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employer, Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employer for all Employment Costs and Liabilities incurred by the Ivory Parent or Ivory Employer, in connection with: (a) the continued employment of such STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee until such time as he or she may be lawfully terminated by the Ivory Employer; and (b) the termination of such STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee, including each Employment Cost and Liability in respect of Severance Payments and End of Service Entitlements and in relation to any claim brought by or on behalf of the STSA Offer and Acceptance Employee in relation to such termination; provided that Ivory follows any termination process required by applicable Law to the extent reasonably practicable.

Automatic Transfers.

19.

The parties acknowledge that the employment of certain STSA Employees may automatically transfer from the relevant member of the Ivory Retained Group to a Bluefin Subsidiary on the relevant STSA End Date pursuant to the Transfer Regulations (the “STSA Automatic Transfer Employees”). In addition, there may be an automatic transfer of certain of the Bluefin In-Scope Employees to a CombineCo or a Bluefin Subsidiary at or before Closing pursuant to the steps set out at paragraph 7 of this Annex C.

20.

If any employee alleges or asserts that or it is determined that they transfer to CombineCo or its Affiliates or a Bluefin Subsidiary pursuant to the Transfer Regulations at or before Closing who is not an STSA Employee, a Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee (or a Central Shared Services Employee who it is agreed will be a STSA Employee or a Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee in accordance with paragraph 9 of this Annex C) then Ivory Parent will or will cause the relevant Ivory Employer to indemnify and hold harmless CombineCo or its Affiliates against all Liabilities and Employment Costs arising out of or related to employment of that employee and the termination of the employment of that employee, provided that CombineCo and its Affiliate use reasonable endeavors to minimize such Liabilities.

21.

In the event that Ivory Parent informs CombineCo that the Transfer Regulations apply to an STSA Employee on the relevant STSA End Date, CombineCo shall or shall cause the applicable New Employer Entity to provide to Ivory Parent promptly on its reasonable request such information as is solely available to such New Employer Entity or CombineCo that may be necessary to enable the applicable Ivory Employer to comply with its obligation to inform or consult with the STSA Automatic Transfer Employee or any other affected employees of such Ivory Employer or their respective representatives pursuant to the Transfer Regulations and CombineCo shall indemnify and hold harmless Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employers and promptly reimburse, following demand by Ivory Parent

Annex C-5

and/or the Ivory Employers, Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employers for each Liability and Employment Cost arising as a consequence of CombineCo’s failure to provide the necessary information to Ivory Parent in order for it to comply with its consultation obligations under the Transfer Regulations in respect of any Automatic Transfer Employee.

22.

Ivory Parent shall cause the relevant Ivory Employer to comply with any obligations to inform and consult under the Transfer Regulations in relation to the Automatic Transfer Employees and, except as set out in paragraph 21, Ivory Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless CombineCo and/or its Affiliates and promptly reimburse, following demand by CombineCo and its Affiliates for each Liability and Employment Cost arising as a consequence of a failure to comply with its obligations pursuant to the Transfer Regulations.

23.

In order for the parties to meet their obligations under the Transfer Regulations, Ivory Parent shall cause the relevant Ivory Employer to provide such information that is required for the parties to comply with the Transfer Regulations relating to STSA Employees who transfer on the relevant STSA End Date to the relevant New Employer Entity or CombineCo (as applicable) to the extent reasonably practicable and except where the transfer of such records is not permitted by applicable Law.

24.

The parties do not intend that any of the STSA Employees will automatically transfer to CombineCo or its Affiliates on or before Completion. If any employee alleges or asserts that or it is determined that they transfer to CombineCo or its Affiliates on or before Completion then CombineCo shall indemnify and hold harmless Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employers and promptly reimburse, following demand by Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employers, Ivory Parent and/or the Ivory Employers for each Liability and Employment Cost arising as a consequence of a failure to comply with its obligations under the Transfer Regulations in respect of that STSA Employee.

Additional Provisions Relating to U.S. Employees.

26.

OTHER EMPLOYEE MATTERS

32.

In relation to each employee of the Toro Group immediately prior to the Effective Time (a “Continuing Toro Employee”), and each Continuing Bluefin Employee and STSA Employee, for a period of at least one year following the Closing Date (or such shorter period as the Continuing Toro Employee or Continuing Bluefin Employee in question continues to be employed by a Toro Group member, a Bluefin Group member, or a CombineCo Group member and the STSA Employee continues to be employed by the Ivory Retained Group), or such longer period required by applicable Law, CombineCo shall cause each Continuing Toro Employee and Continuing Bluefin Employee and Ivory Parent shall cause each STSA Employee to:

(a) continue to be employed on terms and conditions of employment and benefits that are Substantially Similar when compared to the terms that applied to such individual immediately prior to Closing; and

(b) to the extent not covered by the foregoing paragraph (a), be entitled to Severance Payments (excluding equity or equity based compensation) that are no less favorable than the Severance Payments (excluding equity or equity based compensation) that are provided to such individual immediately prior to the Closing Date.

33.

To the extent that service is relevant for purposes of eligibility, vesting or benefit accrual under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement (other than benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan, program or arrangement) established or maintained by the Bluefin Group or CombineCo (or a New Employer Entity) for the benefit of Continuing Toro Employees or Continuing Bluefin Employees, CombineCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such plan, program (including with respect to paid time off and severance) or arrangement to credit such individuals service with the applicable Toro Group member or Ivory Employer; provided, however, that (i) such service need not be taken into account to the extent it would result in duplication of benefits and (ii) such service need only be taken into account to the same extent and for the same purposes as such service was taken into account under the corresponding Toro Benefit Plan or Ivory Benefit Plan, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the STSA, no STSA Employee who is an active participant in the CombineCo Benefit Plans shall receive duplicate benefits under the corresponding Ivory Benefit Plans. Furthermore, unless expressly provided for in this Agreement or required by applicable Law, no provision in this Agreement shall be construed to create any right to accelerate vesting, distribution of benefits or entitlements to any compensation or Ivory Benefit Plan or CombineCo Benefit Plan on the part of any Bluefin In-Scope Employee or any Non-Bluefin Employees.

From and after the applicable Transfer Date, with respect to any plan, program or arrangement of the Bluefin Group, CombineCo, or a New Employer Entity providing medical, dental and vision coverage that is provided to Continuing Bluefin Employees, to the extent such Continuing Bluefin Employee would be eligible for such plan, program or arrangement but for any applicable service requirement, such Continuing Bluefin Employee shall be permitted to participate in such plan, program or arrangement. From and after the applicable Transfer Date, CombineCo shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained for the benefit of STSA Employees and Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee which provides medical, dental, or vision coverage to cause such plan, program, or arrangement to (i) credit such STSA Employees and Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee for service with the applicable Ivory Employer; provided, however, that (A) such service need not be taken into account to the extent it would result in duplication of benefits and (B) such service need only be taken into account to the same extent and for the same purposes as such service was taken into account under the corresponding Bluefin Plan; (ii) waive any pre-existing condition limitations for conditions covered under the applicable Bluefin Plans available to the STSA Employees and Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees immediately prior to the Transfer Date and any applicable waiting periods; and (iii) credit STSA Employees and Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees with any deductible and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such individuals and their dependents under the applicable Bluefin Plans during the portion of the current year preceding the applicable Transfer Date for purposes of satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under any similar plan, program or arrangement of a New Employer Entity or the Bluefin Group in which such STSA Employees or Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees may be eligible to participate from and after the Closing. Ivory HoldCo shall use its best efforts to provide CombineCo, as promptly as practicable after the Transfer Date, with such information reasonably requested by CombineCo as is reasonably necessary to implement the provisions of this paragraph.

Annex C-8

34.

Ivory Parent and CombineCo shall cause the relevant Ivory Employer and the New Employer Entity to cooperate with each other in the preparation and submission (on an expedited/ priority application basis) of all necessary documents required to transfer the employer details of the employment visa, work permit, residence permit (and other immigration and/or employment documents required to employ the STSA Employees and base them in the relevant jurisdictions) (“Visa”) or to allow for the submission of a new application by the New Employer Entity (a “Visa Application”), if applicable, such that such Visa or Visa Application is amended or a new Visa or Visa Application is issued to refer to the New Employer Entity and cease to refer to the relevant Ivory Employer. In addition, CombineCo and Ivory Parent will take all reasonably practicable steps to ensure that the immigration status of any Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employee is not materially adversely impacted by the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement.

35.

In the event an offer of employment remains open for acceptance pending a Visa Application in accordance with paragraph 15(c) of this Annex C after the Closing Date (in respect of Closing Bluefin In-Scope Employees) or the relevant STSA End Date (in respect of the STSA Employees) (such an offer being a “Visa Employee Offer” in respect of a “Visa Employee”), Ivory Parent shall, to the extent permitted by the Visa applicable to the Ivory Employer or Visa Application, cause the services of the Visa Employee to be made available to CombineCo until such date as the Visa Employee is able to accept the Offer and transfer to a New Employer Entity or the Visa Employee’s employment is lawfully terminated by the Ivory Employer, subject to CombineCo promptly re-imbursing the Ivory Employer for the total cost of employing the Visa Employee during this period (including applicable income tax and social security contributions).

36.

This Annex C is included for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted transferees and permitted assignees and does not and shall not create any right in any other Person, including any current or former employee of any Bluefin Group member or any of their respective Affiliates, any employee, or any beneficiary or dependent of any of the foregoing, or any other Person who is not a party to this Agreement or any permitted transferee or permitted assignee thereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement (express or implied) is intended to (a) create or amend any employee benefit plan, program, or arrangement, (b) confer upon any individual any right to employment for any period of time, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment or (c) affect the employment terms, conditions, compensation, and benefits of any individual covered by a collective agreement or works council in a manner impermissible under applicable Law. No current or former employee of any Bluefin Group member or any of their respective Affiliates, any employee, or any beneficiary or dependent of any of the foregoing, or any other Person not a party to this Agreement or any permitted transferee or permitted assignee thereof, shall be entitled to assert any claim against CombineCo, Ivory HoldCo, Bluefin or any other Bluefin Group member, or any of their respective Affiliates (including Ivory Parent, CombineCo, and Toro Merger Sub) under this Annex C.

(a) before the Closing Date, shall be determined by Ivory Parent (with the amount of social security and other Taxes due mutually determined by Ivory Parent and CombineCo) and borne or discharged by Ivory Parent paying the relevant amounts to the relevant CombineCo Group entity no later than ten business days before such amounts are due for payment and the relevant CombineCo Group entity shall be responsible for paying the annual bonus or commission payments to the relevant Continuing Bluefin Employees on or around Ivory Parent’s normal bonus or commission (as applicable) payment date and for discharging any Tax on those payments as required; and

(a) Each person (and the heirs, executors or administrators of such person) who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (each, a “Covered Person”), shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Section 7.06. Preservation of Rights. None of the amendment or repeal of this Article 7, the adoption of any provision of this Certificate or the Bylaws, or, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, any modification of law, shall adversely affect any right or protection of any person granted pursuant to this Certificate existing at, or arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to, the time of such amendment, repeal, adoption or modification (regardless of when any proceeding (or part thereof) relating to such event, act or omission arises or is first threatened, commenced or completed).

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

Section 2.01. Time and Place of Meetings. All meetings of the Corporation’s stockholders shall be held at such place either within or outside the State of Delaware (or, if applicable, by such means of remote communication), on such date, and at such time as may be determined from time to time by the Board or its designee (or the Chair of the Board, if any, in the absence of a designation by the Board). The Board may, in its sole discretion, determine that meetings of stockholders shall not be held at any place but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication as described in Section 2.08 of these Bylaws in accordance with Section 211(a)(2) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (as amended from time to time, the “DGCL”).

Section 2.02. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders shall be held for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting. The Board may postpone, reschedule or cancel any previously scheduled annual meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.03. Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders for any purpose or purposes (except for the filling of board vacancies and newly created directorships, which is governed by Section 3.10 of these Bylaws) may only be called in the manner set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation and may be held at such place either within or outside of the State of Delaware (or, if applicable, by such means of remote communication), on such date, and at such time as shall be stated in a notice of meeting or in a written waiver of such notice, in each case in accordance with Section 2.04. The Board may postpone, reschedule or cancel any previously scheduled special meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.04. Notice of Meetings and Adjourned Meetings; Waivers of Notice.

(a) Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the meeting shall be given which shall state the place (or, if applicable, the means of remote communication), date, and time of the meeting, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by the DGCL, such notice shall be given not less than ten nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting. The Board or the chair of the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another place (or, if applicable, other means of remote communication), date, or time (whether or not a quorum is present), and notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the place (or, if applicable, the means of remote communications), date, or time, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, are announced at the meeting at which such adjournment is made or are provided in any other manner permitted by the DGCL. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If, after the adjournment, a new record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record as of the record date so fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

(b) A written waiver of any such notice signed by the person entitled thereto, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission.

Section 2.05. Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, and subject to the DGCL, the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation generally entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business; provided, however, that if a separate vote by a class or classes or series is required, a majority of the voting power of the shares of such class or classes or series present in person or represented by proxy shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. If a quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting of the stockholders, the chair of the meeting or, if directed to be voted upon by the chair of the meeting, the stockholders, acting by the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy, may adjourn the meeting until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be transacted that might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

Section 2.06. Voting.

(a) Unless a different or minimum vote is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, in which case such different or minimum vote shall be the applicable vote on the matter, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting at which a quorum is present on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Abstentions and broker non-votes shall not be counted as votes cast. Subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of [•], 2024, by and among the Corporation, Informa PLC, and Informa US Holdings Limited (as amended from time to time, the “Stockholders Agreement”), and the rights of the holders of any class or series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specific circumstances, which rights are expressly granted by the Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Designation (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation)), a nominee for director shall be elected to the Board if the nominee receives a majority of the votes cast with respect to that nominee’s election at any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present; provided, however, if as of the tenth day preceding the date the Corporation first mails its notice of meeting for such meeting to the stockholders of the Corporation, the number of nominees for director exceeds the number of directors to be elected, the directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares represented in person or by proxy at any such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors.

(b) Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to a corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless said proxy provides for a longer period.

(c) The Corporation shall prepare, no later than the tenth day before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than 10 days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting), arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of 10 days ending on the day before the meeting date: (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this Section 2.06(c) or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.07. No Action by Consent. Except as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or the Stockholders Agreement, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be effected by any consent in lieu of a meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.08. Remote Communication. If authorized by the Board in its sole discretion, and subject to such guidelines and procedures as the Board may adopt, stockholders and proxy holders not physically present at a meeting of stockholders may, by means of remote communication:

(a) participate in a meeting of stockholders; and

(b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication; provided, however, that:

(i) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxy holder;

(ii) the Corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxy holders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings; and

(iii) if any stockholder or proxy holder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the Corporation.

Section 2.09. Organization. At each meeting of stockholders, unless otherwise determined by the Board, the Chair of the Board, if any, or in the Chair’s absence or if one shall not have been elected, the director designated by the vote of the majority of the directors present at such meeting of stockholders, shall act as chair of the meeting. The Secretary (or in the Secretary’s absence or inability to act, the person whom the chair of the meeting shall appoint as secretary of the meeting) shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep the minutes thereof. The Board shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations of the Board, if any, the chair of the meeting shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chair, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting, rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, limitations on participation in such meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation and their duly authorized and constituted proxies and such other persons as the chair shall permit, restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the opening and closing of the polls for balloting on matters which are to be voted on by ballot at the meeting. The chair of the meeting of stockholders, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if such chair should so determine, such chair shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board or the chair of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.

Section 2.10. Order of Business. The order of business at all meetings of stockholders shall be as determined by the chair of the meeting.

Section 2.11. Nomination of Directors and Proposal of Other Business.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(i) Nominations of persons for election to the Board or the proposal of other business to be transacted by the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders may be made only (A) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (B) by or at the direction of the Board or any committee thereof, (C) as may be provided in any Preferred Designation, (D) pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement or (E) by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in paragraph (ii) of this Section 2.11(a) and at the time of the annual meeting, who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the procedures set forth

in this Section 2.11(a), and, except as otherwise required by law, any failure to comply with these procedures shall result in the nullification of such nomination or proposal; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 2.11(a), and the corresponding requirements of Section 2.11(c), shall not apply to (x) any nomination of persons for election to the Board or (y) any proposal of other business to be transacted by the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders that in either such case (1) is made by a party to the Stockholders Agreement, including any Permitted Assignee (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement), and (2) is not prohibited under the Stockholders Agreement.

(ii) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting of stockholders by a stockholder pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)(E), the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and any such proposed business (other than the nominations of persons for election to the Board) must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. The number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the annual meeting (or in the case of a stockholder giving the notice on behalf of a beneficial owner, the number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the annual meeting on behalf of such beneficial owner) shall not exceed the number of directors to be elected at such annual meeting. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary of the Corporation at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders (which date of the preceding year’s annual meeting date shall, for purposes of the Corporation’s first annual meeting of stockholders after its shares of common stock are first publicly traded, be deemed to have occurred on [•], 20[•] for all purposes of these Bylaws); provided, however, that if the date of the annual meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to such anniversary date or delayed more than 90 days after such anniversary date then to be timely such notice must be received by the Corporation no earlier than 120 days prior to such annual meeting and no later than the later of 90 days prior to the date of the meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the meeting was first made by the Corporation. In no event shall the recess, adjournment or postponement of any meeting, or any announcement thereof, commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above.

(iii) Except for any nomination pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall set forth (A) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director: (1) all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”), including such person’s written consent to being named in the Corporation’s proxy statement and associated proxy card and materials as a nominee of the stockholder and to serving as a director if elected; and (2) a reasonably detailed description of any compensatory, payment or other financial agreement, arrangement or understanding that such person has with any other person or entity other than the Corporation, including the amount of any payment or payments received or receivable thereunder, in each case in connection with candidacy or service as a director of the Corporation (a “Third-Party Compensation Arrangement”), (B) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these Bylaws, the text of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, and (C) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made:

(5) a description of any proxy, contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such stockholder and such beneficial owner, if any, or any of their respective affiliates or associates has the right to vote any shares of any security of the Corporation;

(6) any short interest of such stockholder and such beneficial owner, if any, or any of their respective affiliates or associates in any security of the Corporation (for purposes of these Bylaws, a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security);

(7) any rights to dividends on the shares of the Corporation owned beneficially by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, if any, or any of their respective affiliates or associates that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of capital stock of the Corporation;

(8) any proportionate interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation or derivative instruments, held, directly or indirectly, by a general or limited partnership in which such stockholder or such beneficial owner, if any, or any of their respective affiliates or associates is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner;

(12) any other information relating to such stockholder, beneficial owner, if any, or director nominee or proposed business that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with the solicitation of proxies in support of such nominee or proposal pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act; and

(13) such other information relating to any proposed item of business as the Corporation may reasonably require to determine whether such proposed item of business is a proper matter for stockholder action.

Such notice must also be accompanied by a representation as to whether or not such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf intends to solicit proxies in support of any director nominees other than the Corporation’s nominees in accordance with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, and, where such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf intends to so solicit proxies, the notice and information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Bylaws, unless otherwise required by law, if any stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf (i) provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act and (ii) subsequently fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) and Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act (or fails to timely provide reasonable evidence sufficient to satisfy the Corporation that such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) promulgated under the Exchange Act in accordance with the following sentence), then the nomination of each of the director nominees proposed by such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies or votes in respect of the election of such proposed nominees may have been received by the Corporation (which proxies and votes, as they relate to such disregarded nominee, shall be disregarded). Upon request by the Corporation, if any stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act, such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf shall deliver to the Corporation, no later than five business days prior to the applicable meeting, reasonable evidence that it has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act.

If requested by the Corporation, the information required under Sections 2.11(a)(iii)(C)(2), (3), and (4) shall be supplemented by such stockholder, beneficial owner and/or other person acting on its or their behalf not later than ten days after the record date for the meeting to disclose such information as of the record date.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything in the third sentence of Section 2.11(a)(ii) to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the Board at the annual meeting is increased effective after the time period for which nominations would otherwise be due under Section 2.11(a)(ii) and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least 100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 2.11 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.

(b) Special Meetings of Stockholders. Nominations of persons for election to the Board at a special meeting of stockholders that is not a special meeting called by the stockholders in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation may be made by stockholders only (i) pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement or (ii) if the election of directors is included as business to be brought before a special meeting in the Corporation’s notice of meeting, then only by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a stockholder of record at the time that the notice of meeting is given pursuant to this Section 2.11(b),

is entitled to vote at the time of the special meeting, and complies with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.11(b). Stockholders shall not be permitted to propose business to be brought before a special meeting of stockholders that is not a special meeting called by the stockholders in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation. For nominations to be properly brought by a stockholder before a special meeting of stockholders pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, such stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (A) not earlier than 120 days prior to the date of the special meeting nor (B) later than the later of 90 days prior to the date of the special meeting and the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the special meeting was first made. Such stockholder’s notice to the Secretary shall comply with the notice requirements of Section 2.11(a)(iii). The number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the special meeting (or in the case of a stockholder giving the notice on behalf of a beneficial owner, the number of nominees a stockholder may nominate for election at the special meeting on behalf of such beneficial owner) shall not exceed the number of directors to be elected at such special meeting. In no event shall the public announcement of the recess, adjournment or postponement of a special meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. This Section 2.11(b) and the corresponding requirements of Section 2.11(c) shall not apply to any nomination of persons for election to the Board, or any removal or replacement of a member of the Board, by a stockholder that is a party to the Stockholders Agreement (including any Permitted Assignee) provided such action is not prohibited under the Stockholders Agreement.

(i) To be eligible to be a nominee for election as a director pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)(E) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 2.11(b), the proposed nominee must provide to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with the applicable time periods prescribed for delivery of notice under Section 2.11(a)(ii) or Section 2.11(b): (1) a completed D&O questionnaire (in the form provided by the Secretary of the Corporation at the request of the nominating stockholder) containing information regarding the nominee’s background and qualifications and such other information as may reasonably be required by the Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation or to serve as an independent director of the Corporation, (2) a written representation that, unless previously disclosed to the Corporation, the nominee is not and will not become a party to any voting agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity as to how such nominee, if elected as a director, will vote on any issue or that could interfere with such person’s ability to comply, if elected as a director, with his/her fiduciary duties under applicable law, (3) a written representation and agreement that, unless previously disclosed to the Corporation pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(iii)(A)(2), the nominee is not and will not become a party to any Third-Party Compensation Arrangement and (4) a written representation that, if elected as a director, such nominee would be in compliance and will continue to comply with the Corporation’s corporate governance guidelines as disclosed on the Corporation’s website, as amended from time to time. At the request of the Board, any person nominated by the Board (except any such person nominated pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement) for election as a director shall furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation the information that is required to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice of nomination that pertains to the nominee.

(ii) No person shall be eligible to be nominated by a stockholder to serve as a director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.11. No business proposed by a stockholder shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders except in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03 of these Bylaws and this Section 2.11.

(iii) The chair of the meeting of stockholders shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these Bylaws or that business was not properly brought before the meeting, and if he/she should so determine, he/she shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded or such business shall not be transacted, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, unless otherwise required by law, if the stockholder nominating a director nominee or proposing other business, in each case pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)(E) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 2.11(b) (or a qualified representative of such stockholder), does not appear at the annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation to present a nomination or other proposed business, such nomination shall be disregarded or such proposed business shall not be transacted, as the case may be, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Corporation and counted for purposes of determining a quorum. For purposes of this Section 2.11, to be considered a qualified representative of the stockholder, a person must be a duly authorized officer, manager or partner of such stockholder or must be authorized by a writing executed by such stockholder or an electronic transmission delivered by such stockholder to act for such stockholder as proxy at the meeting of stockholders and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the meeting of stockholders. For purposes of this Section 2.11, “public announcement” shall include disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or other national news service or in a document publicly filed by the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

(iv) Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, a stockholder nominating a director nominee or proposing other business, in each case pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)(E) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 2.11(b), shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange Act with respect to the matters set forth in this Section 2.11; provided, however, that, any references in these Bylaws to the Exchange Act are not intended to and shall not limit any requirements applicable to nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to this Section 2.11, and compliance with this Section 2.11 shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or submit other business (other than as provided in these Bylaws).

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Bylaws, the notice requirements set forth herein with respect to the proposal of any business pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder if such stockholder has submitted a proposal to the Corporation in compliance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, and such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for the meeting of stockholders.

ARTICLE 3

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Section 3.01. Power of the Board of Directors. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, the Stockholders Agreement, or the DGCL.

Section 3.02. Number, Election and Term of Office. Subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement and any Preferred Designation, the number of directors of the Corporation shall be determined from time to time solely by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of the Whole Board. For purposes of these Bylaws, “Whole Board” shall mean the total number of authorized directors constituting the Board whether or not there exist any vacancies or other unfilled seats. Each director shall hold office until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal. Directors need not be stockholders. Subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, the Board may elect a Chair of the Board, who shall be a member of the Board.

Section 3.03. Quorum and Manner of Acting. Unless the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws require a greater number, and subject to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Stockholders Agreement, a majority of the Whole Board shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of the Board and, except as otherwise expressly required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or the Stockholders Agreement, the act of a majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board. To the fullest extent permitted by law, when a meeting is adjourned to another date, time, or place (or, if applicable, means of remote communication) (whether or not a quorum is present), notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the date, time, and place (or, if applicable, means of remote communication) thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Board may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board, the directors present thereat shall adjourn the meeting, from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

Section 3.04. Regular Meetings. After the place (or, if applicable, by such means of remote communication), date, and time of regular meetings of the Board shall have been determined and notice thereof shall have been once given to each member of the Board, regular meetings may be held without further notice being given.

Section 3.05. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board may be called by the Chair of the Board, if any, or the Chief Executive Officer and shall be called by the Chair of the Board, if any, Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary, on the written request of three directors. Notice of the date, place and time of any special meeting of the Board shall be given to each director (a) in person or by telephone at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the meeting, (b) by sending written notice by reputable overnight courier, telecopy, electronic mail, facsimile or other means of electronic transmission, or delivering written notice by hand, to such director’s last known business, home or means of electronic transmission address at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the meeting, or (c) by sending written notice by first-class mail to such director’s last known business or home address at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the meeting. Such notice may be given by the Secretary or by the Chair of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or one of the directors calling the meeting. A notice or waiver of notice of a meeting of the Board need not specify the purposes of the meeting.

Section 3.06. Committees. The Board may designate one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of the Corporation. Any such committee, to the extent provided in a resolution of the Board, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to the following matters: (i) approving or adopting, or recommending to the stockholders, any action or matter (other than the election or removal of directors) expressly required by the DGCL to be submitted to the stockholders for approval or (ii) adopting, amending or repealing any Bylaw. The Board may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members of the committee present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, or the resolution of the Board designating the committee, a committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board when required. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be subject in all respects to the requirements of the Stockholders Agreement.

Section 3.07. Action by Consent; Waiver of Notice.

(a) Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board or committee, as the case may be, signed consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission, delivered to the Corporation. Following such action, the writing or writings or electronic transmission or transmissions, shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee. Such filing shall be in paper form if the minutes are maintained in paper form and shall be in electronic form if the minutes are maintained in electronic form.

(b) A written waiver of any notice required by Article 3 of these Bylaws signed by the person entitled thereto, or a waiver by electronic transmission by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting need be specified in any written waiver of notice or any waiver by electronic transmission.

Section 3.08. Meetings by Conference Communications Equipment. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of the Board or of any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of the Board or such committee, as the case may be, by means of conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

Section 3.09. Resignation. Any director may resign from the Board at any time by giving notice to the Board or to the Secretary of the Corporation. Any such notice must be in writing or by electronic transmission to the Board or to the Secretary of the Corporation. The resignation of any director shall take effect upon receipt of notice thereof or at such later time as shall be specified in such notice; and unless otherwise specified therein, the acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

Section 3.10. Newly Created Directorships and Vacancies. Any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal or any other cause and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall be filled in the manner set forth in the Certificate of Incorporation.

Section 3.13. Emergency Bylaws. In the event of any emergency, disaster, catastrophe or other similar emergency condition of a type described in Section 110(a) of the DGCL (an “Emergency”), notwithstanding any different or conflicting provisions in the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these bylaws, during such Emergency:

(a) Notice and Business. A meeting of the Board or a committee thereof may be called by any director, the Chair of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Secretary by such means as, in the judgment of the person calling the meeting, may be feasible at the time, and notice of any such meeting of the Board or any committee may be given, in the judgment of the person calling the meeting, only to such directors as it may be feasible to reach at the time and by such means as may be feasible at the time. Such notice shall be given at such time in advance of the meeting as, in the judgment of the person calling the meeting, circumstances permit. At any meeting called pursuant to this Section 3.13, the only business that may be conducted is business directly related to the Emergency.

(b) Quorum. The director or directors in attendance at a meeting called in accordance with Section 3.13(a) of these Bylaws shall constitute a quorum.

The shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be uncertificated; provided, however, that the Board may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of its shares of capital stock shall be certificated shares or a combination of certificated and uncertificated shares. Any such resolution that shares of a class or series will only be uncertificated shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. Except as otherwise required by law, the rights and obligations of the holders of uncertificated shares and the rights and obligations of the holders of shares represented by certificates of the same class and series shall be identical. Every holder of shares of capital stock represented by certificates shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by or in the name of the Corporation by any two authorized officers of the Corporation, which shall include the Chair of the Board, if any, any Chief Executive Officer, any President or Vice President, the Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer and the Secretary and Assistant Secretary. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue. The Corporation shall not have power to issue a certificate in bearer form.

Section 5.02. Transfer of Shares.

ARTICLE 6

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 6.01. Fixing the Record Date.

(a) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing such record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If

the Board so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the Board determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may in its discretion or as required by law fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall fix the same date or an earlier date as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting.

(b) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

Section 6.02. Dividends. Subject to limitations contained in the DGCL and the Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Designation), the Board may declare and pay dividends upon the shares of capital stock of the Corporation, which dividends may be paid either in cash, in property or in shares of the capital stock of the Corporation.

THIS TAX MATTERS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [•], is made by and among TECHTARGET, INC., a Delaware corporation, formerly known as TORO COMBINECO, INC. (“NewCo”), INFORMA USA, INC., a Massachusetts corporation (“RemainCo”), INFORMA PLC, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (“Ivory Parent”), INFORMA TECH LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SpinCo”), and INFORMA INTREPID HOLDINGS INC., a Delaware corporation (“Bluefin” and, together with NewCo, RemainCo, Ivory Parent, and SpinCo, the “Parties”).

For the avoidance of doubt, such agreement is intended to constitute a “written, binding agreement” to make the Protective Section 336(e) Elections within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.336-2(h)(1)(i).

(c) Ivory Parent and SpinCo shall cooperate in making the Protective Section 336(e) Elections, if any, including filing any statements, amending any Tax Returns or undertaking such other actions reasonably necessary to carry out the Protective Section 336(e) Elections. Ivory Parent shall determine the “aggregate deemed asset disposition price” and the “adjusted grossed-up basis” (each as defined under applicable Treasury Regulations) and the allocation of such aggregate deemed asset disposition price and adjusted grossed-up basis among the assets of the applicable member or members of the Ivory Retained Group or SpinCo Group, each in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 336(e) of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (the “Section 336(e) Allocation Statement”). Each Party agrees not to take any position (and to cause each of its Affiliates not to take any position) that is inconsistent with the Protective Section 336(e) Elections, including the Section 336(e) Allocation Statement, on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Contest or for any other Tax purposes (in each case, excluding any position taken for financial accounting purposes), except as may be required by a Final Determination.

(d) In the event of a failure of the Tax-Free Status of the Spin-Off Transactions, if Ivory Parent is not entitled to indemnification for one hundred percent (100%) of any Distribution Taxes and Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto arising from such failure, Ivory Parent (or its designee) shall be entitled to quarterly payments from NewCo equal to the Section 336(e) Tax Benefit Percentage of the actual Tax savings if, as and when realized by the NewCo Group members arising from the increase in Tax basis (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such increase in Tax basis attributable to payments made pursuant to this Section 3.6(d)) resulting from the Protective Section 336(e) Election, determined on a “with and without” basis (treating any deductions or amortization attributable to the increase in Tax basis resulting from the Protective 336(e) Election, or any other recovery of such increase in Tax basis, as the last items claimed for any taxable year, including after the utilization of any available net operating loss carryforwards), provided, however, that payments made by NewCo pursuant to this Section 3.6(d) (i) shall be reduced by all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by any member of the NewCo Group to amend any Tax Returns or other governmental filings related to such Protective Section 336(e) Election and (ii) shall not in the aggregate exceed the amount of all Distribution Taxes and Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto of the Ivory Retained Group (not taking into account this Section 3.6(d)) arising from such failure of the Tax-Free Status of the Spin-Off Transactions and for which Ivory Parent is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement.

Section 3.7. Payment of Taxes.

(a) With respect to any Tax Return required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement, the Responsible Party shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority in a timely manner any Taxes due in respect of any such Tax Return.

(b) In the case of any Tax Return for which the Party that is not the Responsible Party is obligated pursuant to this Agreement to pay all or a portion of the Taxes reported as due on such Tax Return, the Responsible Party shall notify the other Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Taxes and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such other Party and the Party receiving such notice shall pay such amount to the Responsible Party upon the later of five business days prior to the date on which such payment is due and 30 business days after the receipt of such notice.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) with respect to any Taxes payable for a Straddle Period and allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on (and including) the Closing Date, to the full extent permitted by applicable Law, such Tax shall be offset by (x) all estimated or advance payments of Taxes on or prior to the Closing Date and (y) Tax credit existing on or prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) with respect to any Taxes payable for a Tax Period other than a Straddle Period, (x) the Party that is or will be the Responsible Party with respect to any Tax Return that will reflect (or otherwise give credit for) such estimated Taxes shall remit or cause to be remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority in a timely manner any estimated Taxes due, and (y) in the case of any estimated Taxes for which the Party that is not the Responsible Party is obligated pursuant to this Agreement to pay all or a portion of the

- 16 -

Taxes that will be reported as due on any Tax Return that will reflect (or otherwise give credit for) such estimated Taxes, the Responsible Party shall notify the other Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such estimated Taxes and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such other Party and the Party receiving such notice shall pay such amount to the Responsible Party upon the later of five business days prior to the date on which such payment is due and 30 business days after the receipt of such notice.

Section 3.8. Post-Closing Tax Practices.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, NewCo shall not, and shall not permit any member of the Bluefin Group to, (i) make, change or revoke any Tax election or change any method of accounting that has effect on any Bluefin Separate Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) file or amend any Bluefin Separate Return with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iii) surrender the right of any member of the Bluefin Group to claim a Refund with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iv) enter into any voluntary disclosure agreement or similar agreement or program with any Governmental Authority implicating Taxes of any member of the Bluefin Group for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (v) extend or waive the statute of limitations of any Bluefin Separate Return with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (vi) seek any ruling or agreement from a Tax Authority with respect to Taxes of any member of the Bluefin Group for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, or (vii) file or allow to be filed any request for an Adjustment for any member of the Bluefin Group with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case, without the prior written consent of Ivory Parent, which consent shall be sought by providing written notice to Ivory Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable (and, whenever possible, at least 45 days) prior to taking any such action described in clauses (i) through (vii) and shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, it being acknowledged and agreed that (A) withholding of consent by Ivory Parent would be unreasonable if such action is determined to be required by applicable Law based on written advice from an internationally recognized law or accounting firm reaching that conclusion which is received by NewCo and provided to Ivory Parent before such act (or failure or omission to act), transaction or election, and (B) subject to clause (A), withholding of consent by Ivory Parent would be reasonable if Ivory Parent is not indemnified by NewCo for all adverse Tax consequences resulting directly from such action (it being acknowledged and agreed that Taxes do not result directly from such action in the case of (x) an amendment of a Tax Return for a Straddle Period if no additional Taxes allocable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period would reasonably be expected to be due as a result of such amendment or (y) the extension or waiver of the statute of limitations as a result of an extension of the time for filing a Tax Return or in the ordinary course of an audit).

(b) Except as prohibited by applicable Law, NewCo shall, and shall cause each member of the Bluefin Group to, make any available elections to waive the right to carry back any Tax Attribute from a Post-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(c) NewCo shall not, and shall cause each member of the Bluefin Group not to, without the prior written consent of Ivory Parent, make any affirmative election to carry back any Tax Attribute from a Post-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

- 17 -

(d) In the event that NewCo (or the appropriate member of the Bluefin Group) is prohibited by applicable Law from waiving or otherwise forgoing the carryback of a Tax Attribute from a Post-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (a “Bluefin Carryback”), NewCo shall notify Ivory Parent in writing that such Bluefin Carryback must be carried back at least sixty (60) days prior to filing the Tax Return on which such carryback will be reflected. Ivory Parent shall promptly pay over to NewCo any Tax Benefit the Ivory Retained Group actually realizes with respect to any such Bluefin Carryback on a “with and without” basis (treating any deductions attributable to such carryback as the last items claimed for any taxable year, including after the utilization of any available net operating loss carryforwards).

Section 3.9. Tax Attributes.

(a) Ivory Parent shall in good faith advise Bluefin in writing reasonably promptly following Closing of the amount, if any, of any Tax Attributes that Ivory Parent determines shall be allocated or apportioned to the Bluefin Group under applicable Law (the “Proposed Allocation”). NewCo shall have thirty (30) days to review the Proposed Allocation and provide Ivory Parent any comments with respect thereto. Ivory Parent shall in good faith consider any comments to the Proposed Allocation reasonably promptly provided by NewCo, and shall in good faith discuss such comments with NewCo, after which Ivory Parent shall provide NewCo with a final determination of any Tax Attributes that Ivory Parent determines shall be allocated or apportioned to the Bluefin Group (the “Final Allocation”). NewCo and all members of the NewCo Group shall prepare all Tax Returns in accordance with the Final Allocation. In the event of any Adjustment to the Tax Attributes following the Final Allocation, Ivory Parent shall promptly advise NewCo in writing of such Adjustment. For the avoidance of doubt, Ivory Parent may elect in its reasonable discretion, in order to comply with this Section 3.9(a), to create or cause to be created books and records or reports or other documents based thereon (including, without limitation, “earnings & profits studies,” “basis studies” or similar determinations) that it does not typically maintain or prepare in the ordinary course of business.

(b) Deferred Revenue; Compensatory Deductions.

(i) Ivory Parent shall be entitled to a payment from NewCo (the amount of such payment, the “Deferred Revenue Payment Amount”) equal to the product of (x) the deferred revenue (if any) of SpinCo as of the Closing Date that has not been included in the income of SpinCo for financial reporting purposes as of the Closing Date to the extent such revenue is an accounts receivable of SpinCo as of the Closing Date and such deferred revenue is included in taxable income for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, multiplied by (y) the maximum applicable statutory Tax rate as of the Closing Date. Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Ivory Parent shall prepare and deliver to NewCo a statement setting forth with reasonable supporting detail Ivory Parent’s good faith calculations of the Deferred Revenue Payment Amount. Ivory Parent shall promptly provide NewCo all supporting documents and other information relating to such calculations as reasonably requested by NewCo. NewCo shall have 45 days from the date on which it receives the calculations of the Deferred Revenue Payment Amount from Ivory Parent to raise any objections to such calculations by delivering a written notice to Ivory Parent setting forth such objections in reasonable detail. If NewCo does not raise any objection within the 45-day period, then the Deferred Revenue Payment Amount as calculated by Ivory Parent shall be deemed final, binding and nonappealable. If NewCo timely raises any objections, NewCo and Ivory Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve these objections. If NewCo and

- 18 -

Ivory Parent are unable to resolve NewCo’s objections within 30 days after the date on which the notice setting forth such objections is received by Ivory Parent, then either NewCo or Ivory Parent may, by written notice to the other within five business days after such 30-day period (or such earlier date as mutually agreed), require NewCo and Ivory Parent to engage an Accountant Firm to resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 9.1. NewCo shall make payment of the Deferred Revenue Payment Amount as finally determined to Ivory Parent within five business days of such final determination.

(ii) Ivory Parent shall be entitled to quarterly payments from NewCo equal to the product of (x) deductions to which NewCo Group members are entitled under applicable Tax Law for the applicable quarter in respect of compensatory transfers to individuals providing services to NewCo Group members of Equity Interests in Ivory Parent, cash, or other property that is provided or funded by members of the Ivory Retained Group, multiplied by (y) the maximum applicable statutory Tax rate. Such payments shall be made thirty (30) days after the end of the applicable quarter.

Section 3.10. Industry Dive, Inc. Sales Taxes. Each Party shall fully cooperate in good faith after the Closing to develop a plan to begin the collection and remittance of sales Taxes for Industry Dive, Inc. after the Closing, with respect to Tax Periods beginning after the Closing. Industry Dive, Inc. shall not enter into voluntary disclosure agreements or similar agreements with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods in any jurisdiction with respect to sales Taxes for such period without the prior written consent of Ivory Parent, which may be granted or withheld in Ivory Parent’s sole discretion. Any reasonable action taken by NewCo or any member of the NewCo Group in connection with entering into any voluntary disclosure agreements or similar agreements with respect to which Ivory Parent has provided written consent under the preceding sentence or in accordance with the plan developed pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall not constitute (i) a NewCo Disqualifying Action, or (ii) a breach by any member of the NewCo Group of any provision of this Agreement, including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 3.5 or Section 3.8.

(a) Ivory Parent, on behalf of itself and all other members of the Ivory Retained Group, hereby covenants and agrees that no member of the Ivory Retained Group will take, fail to take, or to permit to be taken: (i) any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with or cause to be untrue any statement, information, covenant or representation in the Tax Certificates pertaining to the Tax-Free Status of the Spin-Off Transactions or (ii) any action where such action or failure to act would adversely affect, or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect, the Tax-Free Status of the Spin-Off Transactions.

(i) shall continue and cause to be continued the active conduct of the Bluefin Business for purposes of Section 355(b)(2) of the Code, taking into account Section 355(b)(3) of the Code, including as conducted by the SpinCo Group immediately prior to the Distribution,

(iv) shall not and shall not permit any member of the SpinCo Group, to sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of or agree to, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose (including in any transaction treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a sale, transfer or disposition) of assets (including, any shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary) that, in the aggregate, constitute more than thirty percent (30%) of the consolidated gross assets of SpinCo or the SpinCo Group; provided that this Section 4.2(c)(iv) shall not apply to (1) sales, transfers, or dispositions of assets in the ordinary course of business, (2) any cash paid to acquire assets from an unrelated Person in an arm’s-length transaction or cash to pay indebtedness or other liabilities owed to an unrelated Person, (3) sales, transfers, or dispositions of assets to a wholly owned Subsidiary of SpinCo or (4) any assets transferred to a Person that is disregarded as an entity separate from the transferor for U.S. federal income tax purposes; provided, further, that the percentages of gross assets or consolidated gross assets of SpinCo or the SpinCo Group, as the case may be, sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of, shall be based on the fair market value of the gross assets of SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group as of the Distribution Date.

(d) Notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by Sections 4.2(b) and 4.2(c), NewCo, Bluefin, SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group may take any of the actions or transactions described therein if SpinCo either (i) obtains an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Ivory Parent, (ii) obtains a ruling from the IRS to the effect that such actions or transactions will not affect the Tax-Free Status of the Spin-Off Transactions (a “Post-Distribution Ruling”), or (iii) obtains the prior written consent of Ivory Parent waiving the requirement that SpinCo obtain an Unqualified Tax Opinion or Post-Distribution Ruling, such waiver to be provided in Ivory Parent’s sole and absolute discretion. Ivory Parent shall cooperate in good faith with any reasonable requests of SpinCo in connection with securing any Post-Distribution Ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion.

ARTICLE V

INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS

Section 5.1. Indemnity Obligations.

(a) Ivory Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the NewCo Group from and against, and will reimburse them for, (i) all liability for Taxes allocated to Ivory Parent pursuant to Article II, (ii) all liability for Taxes and Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto arising out of, based upon, or relating or attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in, or failure to perform, as applicable, any representation, covenant, or obligation of any member of the Ivory Retained Group pursuant to this Agreement and (iii) the amount of any Refund received by any member of the Ivory Retained Group that is allocated to NewCo pursuant to Section 2.6(a).

(b) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in the Separation Documentation, the Merger Agreement or other Transaction Document, NewCo shall indemnify and hold harmless the members of the Ivory Retained Group from and against, and will reimburse them for, (i) all liability for Taxes allocated to NewCo pursuant to Article II, (ii) all liability for Taxes and Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto arising out of, based upon, or relating or attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in, or failure to perform, as applicable, any representation, covenant, or obligation of any member of the NewCo Group pursuant to this Agreement, and (iii) the amount of any Refund received by any member of the NewCo Group that is allocated to Ivory Parent pursuant to Section 2.6(a); provided, however, that no indemnification obligation shall arise pursuant to clause (ii) to the extent such breach of or inaccuracy in, or failure to perform, as applicable, any representation, covenant, or obligation of any member of the NewCo Group pursuant to this Agreement resulted from an act, transaction or election that was unanimously approved by all directors then designated by Ivory HoldCo on the board of directors of NewCo who participate in the vote of the board of directors of NewCo (whether in person, by proxy, by written consent, or otherwise) that results in such approval, provided that such participating Ivory HoldCo-designated directors represent a majority of the directors on the board of directors of NewCo participating in such vote.

(c) To the extent that any Tax or Tax-Related Losses is subject to indemnity pursuant to both Section 5.1(a)(ii) (on the one hand) and Section 5.1(b)(ii) (on the other hand), responsibility for such Tax or Tax-Related Loss shall be shared by Ivory Parent and NewCo according to relative fault as determined by the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 9.1.

- 22 -

Section 5.2. Indemnification Payments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if a Party (the “Indemnitee”) or a member of its Group is required to pay to a Governmental Authority a Tax or to another Person a payment in respect of a Tax that the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) is liable for under this Agreement, including as the result of a Final Determination, the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnifying Party, in writing, of its obligation to pay such Tax and, in reasonably sufficient detail, its calculation of the amount due by such Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee, including any Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall pay such amount, including any Tax-Related Losses attributable thereto, to the Indemnitee no later than the later of (i) five business days prior to the date on which such payment is due to the applicable Governmental Authority or (ii) 30 business days after the receipt of notice from the other Party. Any Tax indemnity payment required to be made pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by any corresponding Tax Benefit payment required to be made to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnitee pursuant to Section 2.7. For the avoidance of doubt, a Tax Benefit payment is treated as corresponding to a Tax indemnity payment to the extent the Tax Benefit realized is directly attributable to the same Tax item (or adjustment of such Tax item pursuant to a Final Determination) that gave rise to the Tax indemnity payment. In addition, in the event Ivory Parent is obligated to make a payment under Section 5.1(a), there shall be offset against such payment (with a consequent reduction in the amount Ivory Parent is obligated to pay) any amounts described in Section 3.9(b) that are due but have not yet been paid by NewCo to Ivory Parent, and any such offset will be deemed paid by NewCo pursuant to Section 3.9(b).

(b) If, as a result of any change or redetermination, any amount previously allocated to and borne by one Party pursuant to the provisions of Article II is thereafter allocated to the other Party, then, no later than 30 business days after such change or redetermination, such other Party shall pay to such Party the amount previously borne by such Party which is allocated to such other Party as a result of such change or redetermination.

(c) If an Indemnitee receives a Refund with respect to a Tax Contest for which the Indemnifying Party made an indemnity payment to the Indemnitee pursuant to Section 5.2(a), the Indemnitee shall pay the amount of such Refund to the Indemnifying Party, such payment to the Indemnifying Party not to exceed such indemnity payment, no later than 30 business days after the receipt of such Refund.

Section 5.3. Payment Mechanics.

(a) All payments under this Agreement shall be made by Ivory Parent directly to NewCo and by NewCo directly to Ivory Parent (or its designee); provided, however, that if the Parties mutually agree with respect to any such indemnification payment, any member of the Ivory Retained Group, on the one hand, may make such indemnification payment to any member of the NewCo Group, on the other hand, and vice versa. All indemnification payments shall be treated in the manner described in Section 5.4.

(b) In the case of any payment of Taxes made by a Responsible Party or Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement for which such Responsible Party or Indemnitee, as the case may be, has received a payment from the other Party, such Responsible Party or Indemnitee shall provide to the other Party a copy of any official government receipt received with respect to the payment of such Taxes to the applicable Governmental Authority (or, if no such official governmental receipts are available, executed bank payment forms or other reasonable evidence of payment).

- 23 -

Section 5.4. Treatment of Payments. The Parties agree that any payment made among the Parties pursuant to this Agreement (other than any payment of interest accruing after the Distribution Date) shall be treated, to the extent permitted by Law, for all U.S. federal income tax purposes as an adjustment to the Ivory Cash Payment contributed by Ivory HoldCo to NewCo pursuant to Section 1.02 of the Merger Agreement.

ARTICLE VI

TAX CONTESTS

Section 6.1. Notice. Each Party shall notify the other Party in writing within ten business days after receipt by such Party or any member of its Group of a written communication from any Governmental Authority with respect to any pending or threatened audit, claim, dispute, suit, action, proposed assessment or other administrative or judicial proceeding (a “Tax Contest”) concerning any Taxes for which the other Party may be liable pursuant to this Agreement, and thereafter shall promptly forward or make available to such Party copies of notices and communications relating to such Tax Contest.

Section 6.2. Conduct of Tax Contests.

(a) Subject to Section 6.4, Ivory Parent shall have the sole responsibility and right to control the prosecution of Tax Contests with respect to any Bluefin Separate Return for a Tax Period ending on or before the Closing Date, any Ivory Separate Return, or any Joint Return, including the exclusive right to communicate with agents of the applicable Governmental Authority and to control, resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest.

(b) With respect to any Tax Contest other than those described in Section 6.2(a), subject to Section 6.4, NewCo shall have the sole responsibility and right to control the prosecution of such Tax Contest, including the exclusive right to communicate with agents of the applicable Governmental Authority and to control, resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of such Tax Contest.

Section 6.3. Obligation of Continued Notice. During the pendency of any Tax Contest or threatened Tax Contest, each Party shall provide prompt notice to the other Parties of any written communication received by it or a member of its respective Group from a Governmental Authority regarding any Tax Contest for which it is indemnified by the other Party hereunder. Such notice shall attach copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Governmental Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Governmental Authority in respect of any such matters. Such notice shall be provided in a reasonably timely fashion; provided, however, that in the event that timely notice is not provided, a Party shall be relieved of its obligation to indemnify the other Party only to the extent that such delay results in actual increased costs or actual prejudice to such other Party.

- 24 -

Section 6.4. Participation Rights. Unless waived by the Parties in writing, in connection with any Tax Contest with respect to a Bluefin Separate Return for a Straddle Period or any Tax Contest as a result of which the Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment to the Controlling Party under Article V of this Agreement: (a) the Controlling Party shall keep the Non-Controlling Party informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Controlling Party with respect to such Tax Contest; (b) the Controlling Party shall timely provide the Non-Controlling Party with copies of any correspondence or filings received from, or submitted to, any Governmental Authority or judicial authority in connection with such Tax Contest; (c) the Controlling Party shall defend such Tax Contest diligently and in good faith; (d) upon the Non-Controlling Party’s request, the Controlling Party shall consult the Non-Controlling Party from time to time as to strategy for the conduct of such Tax Contest; and (e) the Controlling Party shall not settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed without the prior written consent of the Non-Controlling Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, in the case of a Tax Contest other than in respect of a Bluefin Separate Return for a Straddle Period, the foregoing (a) through (e) shall apply to actions, correspondence, filings, defense, conduct, and settlements and agreements to the extent related to the potential adjustment or adjustments as a result of which the Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment to the Controlling Party. The failure of the Controlling Party to take any action specified in the preceding sentence with respect to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement, except to the extent the Non-Controlling Party is actually harmed thereby, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party.

ARTICLE VII

ARTICLE III

Corporate Governance Matters

Section 3.1 Initial Board Composition. Effective as of the Closing, the Company Board shall initially consist of nine members (the “Initial Board”) comprised of (i) four directors designated by Ivory, of whom at least one will be an Ivory Independent Director who meets all requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards for membership on the Audit Committee of the Company Board (the “Audit Committee”); (ii) three directors designated by Legacy Toro, of whom at least two will be Independent Directors who meet all requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards for membership on the Audit Committee; (iii) the person who is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and (iv) a director designated by Ivory who initially will serve as the non-executive chair of the Board and who, as of the Closing, qualifies as an Ivory Independent Director and is not then serving as a director of Ivory Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

Section 3.2 Subsequent Board Composition.

(a) From and after the date hereof and until the Fourth Trigger Date, the Company shall take all action as may be necessary or appropriate to cause the Company Board, at any time (including if the size of the Company Board is increased or decreased), to be comprised of a number of persons designated by Ivory (each person so designated by Ivory, an “Ivory Designee”) equal to the Ivory Ownership Percentage (expressed as a fraction) multiplied by the total authorized number of directors of the Company Board at such time (including as constituted immediately following any increase in size of the Company Board to comply with this Section 3.2), rounded to the nearest whole person (but in no event less than a majority of the members of the Company Board until the First Trigger Date), at least one of whom shall be an Ivory Independent Director who meets all requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards for membership on the Audit Committee.

(b) The Company shall cause each Ivory Designee to be included in the slate of nominees recommended by the Company Board to holders of Company Common Stock for election (including at any annual or special meeting of stockholders held for the election of directors) and shall use its best efforts to cause the election of each such Ivory Designee, including by soliciting proxies in favor of the election of each such Ivory Designee.

(c) If any Ivory Director shall cease to serve as a director for any reason, the vacancy resulting therefrom shall be filled by the Company Board with a substitute Ivory Designee, promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) upon the written request of Ivory.

- 10 -

(d) The Company hereby agrees to take, at any time and from time to time, all actions necessary to facilitate the removal and replacement of any Ivory Director upon the written request of Ivory.

(e) From and after the date hereof, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company Board (the “Nominating Committee”) shall have the sole right to nominate for election at any annual or special meeting of stockholders held for the election of directors the persons who will occupy the Company Board seats not occupied by Ivory Directors (each such nominee, a “Non-Ivory Designee”) and in the event of a vacancy on the Company Board caused by the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal from office, or other cause of any director who was not an Ivory Director (a “Non-Ivory Director”), to fill such vacancy in accordance with applicable Law; provided, however, that until the Third Trigger Date, (i) the then-current Chief Executive Officer of the Company shall be nominated for election as a Non-Ivory Director at any annual or special meeting of the Company at which directors are elected, and (ii) at least two Non-Ivory Designees shall be Company Independent Directors and shall meet all other requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards for membership on the Audit Committee, and at least one Non-Ivory Designee shall also be an “audit committee financial expert” having the attributes specified in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Notwithstanding any duty otherwise existing under applicable Law or in equity, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Ivory Director shall have any duty to disclose to the Company or the Company Board or any committee of the Company Board (or subcommittee thereof) confidential information of Ivory or any Affiliates of Ivory in such Ivory Director’s possession even if it is material and relevant information to the Company, the Company Board or any committee of the Company Board (or subcommittee thereof) and, in any case, such Ivory Director shall not be liable to the Company, any of its stockholders or any other Person for breach of any duty (including the duty of loyalty or any other fiduciary duties) as a director by reason of such lack of disclosure of such confidential information.

(h) Subject to Section 3.1, the chair of the Company Board shall be appointed (and may be removed and replaced at any time) by the Company Board.

Until the Second Trigger Date, Ivory shall have the right to review and approve the charter for each committee and subcommittee of the Company Board (other than any RPT Committee).

(b) The Company shall cause the Audit Committee to consist of not less than three directors, all of whom shall (i) be Independent Directors and (ii) meet the requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards for membership on the Audit Committee.

(d) Until the Third Trigger Date, (i) the Company shall take all action to cause the number of Ivory Directors on all committees and subcommittees of the Company Board other than the Audit Committee, the Nominating Committee, and any RPT Committee (such committees and subcommittees, the “Other Committees”) at any time (including if the size of such Other Committee is increased or decreased, to the extent permitted hereunder) to be equal to the Ivory Ownership Percentage (expressed as a fraction) multiplied by the total authorized number of members of such Other Committee at such time (including as constituted immediately following any increase of such committee or subcommittee to comply with this Section 3.3 to the extent permitted hereunder), rounded up to the nearest whole person, and (ii) Ivory shall have the right to designate which Ivory Director(s) will serve on each Other Committee.

(e) At any time during which the Company ceases to qualify as a “Controlled Company” under the corporate governance listing standards of Nasdaq, (i) the Nominating Committee and the Company Board will ensure that each Non-Ivory Director qualifies as an “independent director” under applicable Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards; provided, however, that this requirement shall not apply to members of the Initial Board or any person serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer,

- 12 -

and (ii) Ivory shall cause the Ivory Directors designated to serve on the Company Board and on each of the committees of the Company Board to include such number of designees who each qualify as an “independent director” under applicable Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards to ensure the Company’s compliance with all applicable requirements under the Exchange Act and the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards.

Section 7.9 Exercise of Rights. The exercise of any right under this Agreement by any party hereto shall be made in each such Person’s sole discretion, subject to applicable Law and any express limitations set forth in this Agreement.

Section 7.10 Privileged Matters.

(a) Each of the Parties agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its directors, officers, employees and Affiliates, that the law firms listed on Schedule 7.10(a) (the “Ivory Law Firms”) may serve as counsel to Ivory and the other members of the Ivory Group, on the one hand, and any member of the Bluefin Group (as defined in the Merger Agreement), on the other hand, in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the Transactions, and that, following consummation of the Transactions, the Ivory Law Firms may serve as counsel to any member of the Ivory Group or any director, officer, employee or Affiliate of any member of the Ivory Group, in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions notwithstanding such representation. In connection with any representation expressly permitted pursuant to the prior sentence, the Company hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert, and agrees to cause the other members of the Company Group to irrevocably waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising from or in connection with (i) prior representation of any member of the Bluefin Group by the Ivory Law Firms, and (ii) representation of any member of the Ivory Group prior to and after the Closing by the Ivory Law Firms. As to any privileged attorney-client communications between the Ivory Law Firms and any member of the Bluefin Group prior to the Closing (collectively, the “Privileged Communications”), the Company, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, successors and assigns, including each member of the Company Group, agrees that no such party may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications in any action against or involving any of the Parties or their respective Affiliates after the Closing.

(b) The Company further agrees, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, successors and assigns, including each member of the Company Group, that all privileged communications in any form or format whatsoever between or among the Ivory Law Firms, on the one hand, and Ivory Parent, any other member of the Ivory Group or any member of the Bluefin Group, or any of their respective Affiliates or its or their respective Representatives, on the other hand, that relate to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the Transactions, any alternative transactions to the Transactions presented to or considered by Ivory Parent, any other member of the Ivory Group or any member of the Bluefin Group, or any dispute arising under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, unless finally adjudicated to not be privileged by a court of law (collectively, the “Privileged Deal Communications”), shall remain privileged after the Closing and that the Privileged Deal Communications and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to Ivory Parent, shall be controlled by Ivory Parent, and shall not pass to or be claimed by the Company or any other member of the Company Group. The Company agrees that it will not, and that it will cause the other members of the Company Group not to, (i) access or use the Privileged Deal Communications, (ii) seek to have any member of the Ivory Group waive the attorney-client privilege or any other privilege, or otherwise assert that the Company or any other member of the Company Group has the right to waive the attorney-client privilege or other privilege applicable to the Privileged Deal Communications, or (iii) seek to obtain the Privileged Deal Communications or Non-privileged Deal Communications (as defined below) from any member of the Ivory Group or the Ivory Law Firms.

- 36 -

(c) The Company further agrees, on behalf of itself and on behalf of the other members of the Company Group, that all communications in any form or format whatsoever between or among any of the Ivory Law Firms, Ivory Parent, any other member of the Ivory Group or any member of the Bluefin Group, or any of their respective Affiliates or its or their respective Representatives, that relate to the negotiation, documentation and consummation of the Transactions, any alternative transactions to the Transactions presented to or considered by Ivory Parent, any other member of the Ivory Group or any member of the Bluefin Group, or any dispute arising under this Agreement and that are not Privileged Deal Communications (collectively, the “Non-privileged Deal Communications”), shall also belong solely to Ivory Parent, shall be controlled by Ivory Parent and ownership thereof shall not pass to or be claimed by the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between the Company or any other member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and a third party other than Ivory Parent, any other member of the Ivory Group or their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, then the Company or such other member of the Company Group may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent the disclosure of the Privileged Deal Communications to such third party; provided, however, that to the extent such dispute relates to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions, none of the Company or any other member of the Company Group may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Ivory Parent. If the Company or any other member of the Company Group is legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Deal Communications, then the Company shall promptly (and, in any event, within three Business Days) notify Ivory Parent in writing (including by making specific reference to this Section 7.10(d)) so that Ivory Parent can, at its sole cost and expense, seek a protective order, and the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist therewith.

(e) This Section 7.10 shall apply mutatis mutandis with respect to the representation by the law firms listed on Schedule 7.10(e) of any member of the Company Group and any successors thereof.

Section 7.11 Specific Performance. The Parties acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specific terms or were otherwise breached, and that monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy therefor. The Parties accordingly agree that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of actual damages (and each Party hereby waives any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to applicable Law or inequitable for any reason, and not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any such breach or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 7.12 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by attachment to electronic mail in portable document format (PDF)), each such counterpart being deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts shall together constitute the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto.

Any officer or employee of the Company or any other member of the Company Group who is directly responsible for the oversight of a potential Material Related Party Transaction shall, in each case, promptly notify in writing the Designated Officer upon becoming aware of such, who shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the Company Independent Directors. Promptly following receipt of such written notice (and, in any event, within seven days), the Board of Directors shall form an RPT Committee constituted as provided in the definition thereof to review such potential Material Related Party Transaction in accordance with Article IV hereof unless the Company Independent Directors who are Non-Ivory Directors determine in good faith that such transaction does not constitute a Material Related Party Transaction (subject to the other requirements in the definition of Material Related Party Transaction for determining if a Related Party Transaction is a Material Related Party Transaction).

2. No member of the Company Group shall enter into a Material Related Party Transaction without prior written approval from an RPT Committee in accordance with the procedures in Article IV.

3. Any Related Party Transaction that is not a Material Related Party Transaction may be entered into by any member of the Company Group subject to the applicable approval of the Company’s management. Within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company, the Designated Officer shall deliver a written report to the Company Independent Directors detailing any such Related Party Transactions entered into by any member of the Company Group during such fiscal quarter.

4. Subject to compliance with the policies and procedures in this Related Party Transactions Policy, for the avoidance of doubt, officers, directors or employees of any member of the Company Group that are also officers, directors or employees of any member of the Ivory Group may participate in the negotiation, execution, amendment, waiver or termination of any Related Party Transaction on behalf of the Ivory Group.

ARTICLE IV

REVIEW PROCESS

1. In reviewing and determining whether to approve or not approve any Material Related Party Transaction, the applicable RPT Committee shall have the authority to obtain assistance from employees of the Company, including its legal and financial staff, and to retain such external legal, financial, accounting and other advisors as it deems necessary in its sole discretion for the performance of its duties hereunder. The Company shall pay the fees and expenses of all such external advisors.

Sch. 4.5(b)-2

2. When evaluating a Material Related Party Transaction, the applicable RPT Committee shall take into account the following:

(a) such RPT Committee shall determine that the transaction is in the best interest of the Company and all of its stockholders, including stockholders other than such stockholders that are members of the Ivory Group; and

(b) such RPT Committee shall determine that the transaction is on terms no less favorable to the Company than terms generally available from an unaffiliated third party if such terms were generally available from an unaffiliated third party.

3. The applicable RPT Committee shall maintain a written record of its determination with respect to each Material Related Party Transaction it reviews (which written record shall be satisfied by minutes of the meetings of the RPT Committee considering such transaction or actions by unanimous written consent of such RPT Committee), including the factors considered and conclusion reached, which written record shall be delivered to the Company Independent Directors following dissolution of such RPT Committee.

ARTICLE II

EQUITY AWARDS

1. Until the Third Trigger Date, to the extent permitted under Nasdaq rules, the Company hereby grants to Ivory, with respect to each fiscal quarter of the Company after the date of the Stockholders Agreement: (i) the right to purchase shares of Company Common Stock up to its Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share in connection with the issuance, grant or sale by the Company of restricted stock units, restricted shares, performance units or similar securities or rights (“RSUs”) issued, granted or sold during such fiscal quarter after the date of the Stockholders Agreement, (ii) the right to purchase shares of Company Common Stock up to its Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share in connection with the issuance, grant or sale by the Company of stock options, warrants, stock appreciation rights, calls, subscriptions or similar securities or rights to acquire Company Common Stock (“Options”) issued, granted or sold during such fiscal quarter after the date of the Stockholders Agreement, and (iii) the right to purchase Company Securities up to its Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share in connection with the issuance, grant or sale of Company Securities pursuant to any “at the market” program or other similar mechanism (“ATM Program Securities”) during such fiscal quarter after the date of the Stockholders Agreement. The Company Common Stock or other Company Securities that Ivory has the right to purchase pursuant to this Section 1 of this Article II of the Pre-agreed Procedures are the “Equity Awards.” For purposes of this Article II, “Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share” means, with respect to any fiscal quarter of the Company after the date of the Stockholders Agreement, a number of shares of Company Common Stock or other Company Securities, as applicable as specified in this Section 1 of this Article II, such that, after taking into account the total number of outstanding Company Securities (on a Fully Diluted basis) at the end of such fiscal quarter after giving effect to RSUs, Options, and ATM Program Securities issued or sold during such fiscal quarter (including the Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share in full) and excluding any other issuances or sales of Company Securities by the Company during the fiscal quarter and excluding any purchases, dispositions or sales of Company Securities by members of the Ivory Group during the fiscal quarter (but for the avoidance of doubt including the Equity Award Percentage Maintenance Share in full), the Ivory Fully Diluted Ownership Percentage would be, assuming Ivory acquired such number of shares of Company Common Stock or other Company Securities, equal to the Ivory Fully Diluted Ownership Percentage at the start of such fiscal quarter.

2. Without limiting Ivory’s rights pursuant to Section 3.6 (Consent Rights) of the Stockholders Agreement, the Company shall provide written notice to Ivory within five Business Days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company after the date of the Stockholders Agreement (the “Quarterly Issuance Notice”). The Quarterly Issuance Notice for any fiscal quarter shall set forth (w) (A) the number of RSUs or Options issued, granted or sold during such fiscal quarter and the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable thereunder and (B) the number, type and price of ATM Program Securities issued, granted or sold during such fiscal quarter, (x) the Percentage Maintenance Share with respect to such issuances, grants and sales described in the preceding clause (w) for such fiscal quarter (the aggregate amount of Company Common Stock and other Company Securities that Ivory is entitled to purchase pursuant to such Quarterly Issuance Notice, the “Quarterly Offered Securities”), (y) the Specified Purchase Price for each Quarterly Offered Security, and (z) supporting detailed calculations of, and related documentation for, all such amounts.

Sch. 4.5(c)-2

(a) ”Specified Purchase Price” means:

(i) in the case of any Company Common Stock that Ivory has the right to buy in connection with the issuance, grant or sale of an RSU or an Option, a per share price equal to the weighted average of the closing price per share of the underlying Company Common Stock on the applicable date of issuance, grant or sale (or, if the RSU or Option was issued, granted or sold on a day that was not a trading day, the closing price per share of the underlying Company Common Stock on the immediately preceding trading day) during the applicable fiscal quarter; and

(ii) in the case of any ATM Program Security that Ivory has the right to buy, a per share price equal to the weighted average of the price at which all ATM Program Securities were issued during the fiscal quarter in which such Company ATM Program Securities were issued.

3. For a period of 45 days (such period, as it may be extended pursuant to the proviso of this sentence, the “Quarterly Election Period”) following the receipt by Ivory of a Quarterly Issuance Notice, Ivory shall have the right to elect irrevocably to purchase all or a portion of the Quarterly Offered Securities at the applicable Specified Purchase Prices noted in the Quarterly Issuance Notice by delivering a written notice to the Company; provided that following receipt of a Quarterly Issuance Notice, with respect to any or all of the Quarterly Offered Securities, Ivory may agree upon a different applicable Specified Purchase Price with an RPT Committee in accordance with the Related Party Transactions Policy in which case (i) Ivory shall purchase such Quarterly Offered Securities at such other applicable Specified Purchase Price and (ii) the Quarterly Election Period shall be tolled for so long as Ivory and an RPT Committee are working in good faith to agree on such other applicable Specified Purchase Price until such time as Ivory and such RPT Committee agree on such other applicable Specified Purchase Price. If, at the termination of the Quarterly Election Period, Ivory shall not have delivered such notice to the Company, Ivory shall be deemed to have waived all of its rights under this Article II with respect to the purchase of the Quarterly Offered Securities for such fiscal quarter.

4. The closing of any purchase by Ivory pursuant to this Article II shall be consummated promptly following Ivory’s delivery of such notice; provided, however, that the closing of any such purchase by Ivory may be extended (a) to the extent necessary to obtain any required approval of a Governmental Authority or (b) to the extent Company stockholder approval is required under the Nasdaq rules, in which case the Company and Ivory shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain such approval(s) and after receipt of such approval(s), the Company and Ivory shall consummate such closing; and provided, further, that the Ivory Ownership Percentage and the Ivory Fully Diluted Ownership Percentage shall at all times during this period be calculated as if Ivory shall have exercised its rights pursuant to this Article II in full until such time that (i) such sale to Ivory is consummated, (ii) in the case of a required approval of a Governmental Authority, there is a final, non-appealable court order prohibiting Ivory from acquiring such Company Securities, (iii) in the case Company stockholder approval is required under the Nasdaq rules, such stockholder vote shall have occurred and such sale to Ivory not be approved, or (iv) Ivory determines not to exercise its right pursuant to this Article II.

5. For the avoidance of doubt, without limiting any of Ivory’s rights in the Stockholders Agreement, Ivory shall not have any rights pursuant to Section 4.3 (Preemptive Rights) or Section 4.4 (Percentage Maintenance Share) of the Stockholders Agreement to buy its Pro Rata Portion or Percentage Maintenance Share of Company Common Stock that are issued upon the exercise or vesting of (i) RSUs or Options described in this Article II at the time of such issuance or (ii) RSUs or Options granted prior to the Closing in compliance with the Merger Agreement.

At any time after the Closing, and for so long as there are any Registrable Shares, upon the written request of any one or more Holders for registration under this Section 2.01 of Registrable Shares meeting the conditions set forth herein (a “Demand Request”), the Corporation shall prepare, file, and cause to be declared effective by the SEC (if such Registration Statement is not an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement), in each case in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, a Registration Statement covering the sale or distribution from time to time by such Holder or Holders, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415, of the Registrable Shares (a “Shelf Registration Statement”) for which registration is requested by such Holder or Holders, or, if the Corporation is not then eligible to file such a Shelf Registration Statement, the Corporation shall prepare, file, and cause to be declared effective by the SEC, in each case in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act for the type of offering contemplated by the Demand Request (any such registration statement, together

with a Shelf Registration Statement, a “Demand Registration Statement”). The Demand Request shall specify, for each requesting Holder, the number of Registrable Shares to be included in such Demand Registration Statement for such Holder’s account; provided, however, that the aggregate number of Registrable Shares so specified for any Holder may not be less than the Minimum Number of Shares for such Holder. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Holders shall have the right to make an unlimited number of Demand Requests hereunder. The Corporation shall not be required to prepare or file a Demand Registration Statement for Registrable Shares identified in any Demand Request if the Corporation shall have effected a registration of shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Demand Request at any time during the immediately preceding 180 days or if a Shelf Registration Statement covering the same Registrable Shares included in the Demand Request is already effective. The Effectiveness Period referred to in Section 3.01(a) shall be extended by the number of days covered by any Blackout Period and/or the number of days during which the use of any prospectus is suspended pursuant to Section 2.05 or Section 3.01(k).

Section 2.02. Revocation of Demand Request. The Holders that make a Demand Request may revoke it at any time before the Demand Registration Statement relating thereto becomes effective.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Article II of this Agreement, Holders may effect an underwritten public offering with respect to any or all the Registrable Shares included in a Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to a Demand Request. In connection with any underwritten offering not initiated by the Corporation, the lead managing underwriter or underwriters shall be selected by the Holders holding the majority of Registrable Shares included in the Demand Registration Statement, including any Shelf Offering, initiated by such Holders, after consultation in good faith with the Corporation. The Corporation shall be entitled to require that such underwriter or underwriters use the Corporation’s customary underwriters’ counsel (if any).

(b) If the managing underwriters advise the Holders and the Corporation that the number of Registrable Shares requested pursuant to this Article II to be included in an underwritten offering exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, the Registrable Shares to be included in such underwritten offering (up to the Maximum Number of Shares) shall be allocated pro rata among all the requesting Holders based on the relative number of Registrable Shares requested by each such Holder to be included in such underwritten offering. To the extent that any Other Stockholder of Other Securities has a contractual right to include such Other Securities in the Demand Registration Statement, and the number of such Other Securities, together with the Registrable Shares to be included in such underwritten offering, exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares in the opinion of the managing underwriters, the Corporation shall include in such registration:

(i) first, Registrable Shares, allocated pro rata among all the requesting Holders based on the relative number of Registrable Shares requested by each such Holder to be included in such underwritten offering (up to the Maximum Number of Shares); and

(ii) second, Other Securities owned by any Other Stockholder with a contractual right to include such Other Securities in such registration, allocated pro rata among all the requesting Other Stockholders based on the relative number of Other Securities requested by each such Other Stockholder to be included in such underwritten offering (up to the Maximum Number of Shares); and

(a) With respect to any Demand Registration Statement, or amendment or supplement thereto, filed pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.09, if the Board of Directors determines, in its reasonable business judgment, that such registration would cause the Corporation to disclose material nonpublic information, which disclosure (i) would be required to be made in any registration statement so that such registration statement would not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or required to be made in any prospectus so that such prospectus would not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing or effectiveness of such registration statement or prospectus (the “MNPI Disclosure Condition”), the Corporation may, for a reasonable period of time, but not more than the period that the Board of Directors reasonably determines that the MNPI Disclosure Condition continues to exist (a “Blackout Period”), suspend the use or filing of, or the filing of an amendment or supplement to, such Demand Registration Statement; provided, however, that a Blackout Period may not be invoked for a period exceeding 60 consecutive days or 90 days in the aggregate in any 360-day period. Following the determination of a Blackout Period by the Corporation, the Corporation shall promptly notify the Holders in writing that such Demand Registration Statement is unavailable for use (or will not be filed as requested). Upon receipt of any such written notice, the Holders shall discontinue use of the prospectus contained in an effective Demand Registration Statement. When any MNPI Disclosure Condition ends or a Blackout Period otherwise terminates, the Corporation shall promptly notify each Holder in writing and promptly take all actions necessary to permit the Holders to deliver a current prospectus or, if a Demand Registration Statement has not yet been filed, to immediately file the Demand Registration Statement. Each Blackout Period shall be deemed to begin on the date that the relevant notice is given to the Holders and shall be deemed to end on the earlier to occur of (x) the date that the Corporation notifies the Holders that any MNPI Disclosure Condition has ceased to exist and (y) the date that such Blackout Period has been in effect for 60 days.

(b) If the Corporation declares a Blackout Period with respect to a Demand Registration Statement that has not yet been declared effective, the Holders whose Registrable Shares were to be included in such Demand Registration Statement may withdraw their Demand Request therefor.

Section 2.05. SEC Orders Suspending Effectiveness. The Corporation shall notify all Holders that have Registrable Shares included in a Demand Registration Statement of any stop order threatened or issued by the SEC and, as to threatened orders, shall take such actions as may be required, using reasonable best efforts, to prevent the entry of such stop order. If the effectiveness of a Demand Registration Statement is suspended by a stop order issued by the SEC at any time during the Effectiveness Period, the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of such order, and as promptly as reasonably practicable after such suspension of effectiveness, amend or supplement the Demand Registration Statement in a manner reasonably expected by the Corporation to obtain the withdrawal of such order.

Section 2.06. Plan of Distribution. The “plan of distribution” section of each prospectus included in a Demand Registration Statement with respect to any offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under Rule 415 shall be in a form reasonably requested by the Holders whose Registrable Shares are covered by such Demand Registration Statement, subject to any comments of the SEC and the inclusion of such other information as is required by applicable SEC regulations or to conform with applicable SEC practice. Each Holder that elects to dispose of its Registrable Shares under a Registration Statement shall do so in accordance with the “plan of distribution” section of the applicable prospectus.

- 7 -

Section 2.07. Expenses. The Corporation shall pay all Registration Expenses arising from or incident to any registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of any Holders shall be borne by the Holders of the Registrable Shares included in such registration.

Section 2.08. Piggyback and Incidental Registration.

(a) At any time after the Closing, if the Corporation or any Other Stockholder proposes to register the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act (other than on Form S-8, Form S-4, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes, or solely in connection with an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan) (a “Section 2.08 Registration Statement”), whether for its own account or for the account of any Other Stockholders, in a manner that would permit registration of Registrable Shares for sale to the public under the Securities Act (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Corporation will promptly, and in any event at least ten Business Days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Section 2.08 Registration Statement, notify all Holders in writing (a “Piggyback Notice”) of the Corporation’s intention to do so and of such Holders’ rights under this Section 2.08. The Piggyback Notice shall offer all Holders the opportunity to include in such Section 2.08 Registration Statement such number of Registrable Shares as each Holder may request, subject to the terms of Section 2.08(c). The Corporation will use its reasonable best efforts to include in the Section 2.08 Registration Statement the number of Registrable Shares of each Holder sought to be included therein and so specified in a written notice delivered to the Corporation by such Holder within five Business Days after such Holder’s receipt of the related Piggyback Notice, subject to the terms of this Section 2.08.

(b) A Holder may, prior to the effective date of a Section 2.08 Registration Statement, withdraw any Registrable Shares that such Holder sought to have included therein.

(c) If a Piggyback Registration involves an underwritten offering, then all Holders whose Registrable Shares are included in the Piggyback Registration and who elect to participate in the offering must sell their respective Registrable Shares in such underwritten offering and agree to such terms and provisions that are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to selling stockholders. The Corporation will use its reasonable best efforts to cause such an underwriting agreement to include, with respect to Holders, indemnification and contribution provisions that are substantially to the effect provided in Article IV.

(d) The Corporation may elect, in its sole discretion, to terminate a Section 2.08 Registration Statement at any time prior to the effective date thereof. Upon giving written notice of such election to all Holders of Registrable Shares, the Corporation shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration (without prejudice, however, to the rights of Holders under Section 2.01).

(e) If a Piggyback Registration involves an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Corporation (and, if applicable, the Other Stockholders) that the number of shares of Common Stock requested to be included in the Piggyback Registration exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then:

(i) If the Section 2.08 Registration Statement was originated by the Corporation for a primary offering, then such registration statement will include:

(A) first, all the shares of Common Stock that the Corporation proposes to sell for its own account; and

- 8 -

(B) second, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock included by the Corporation for its own account is less than the Maximum Number of Shares, the shares of Common Stock proposed to be included by the Other Stockholders and the Registrable Shares proposed to be included by Holders, allocated pro rata among such Persons on the basis of the number of shares requested by each such Person to be included in such registration statement (up to the Maximum Number of Shares); and

(ii) if the Section 2.08 Registration Statement was originated by Other Stockholders for a secondary offering, then such registration statement will include:

(A) first, all the shares of Common Stock that such Other Stockholders propose to sell for their own account; and

(B) second, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock included by such Other Stockholders is less than the Maximum Number of Shares, the Registrable Shares proposed to be included by Holders, allocated pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Shares requested by each such Holder to be included in such registration statement (up to the Maximum Number of Shares).

Section 2.09. Shelf Take-Downs. At any time that a Shelf Registration Statement covering Registrable Shares is effective, if one or more Holders delivers a notice to the Corporation (each, a “Take-Down Notice”) stating that such Holders intend to sell all or part of their respective Registrable Shares included by them in such Shelf Registration Statement (each, a “Shelf Offering”), then the Corporation shall amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to enable such Registrable Shares to be distributed pursuant to the Shelf Offering, provided, however, the Market Value of the Registrable Shares for any Shelf Offering shall be at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000); provided, further, that the that the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect any Shelf Offering if (x) the Corporation (i) has determined to effect a registered underwritten offering of its equity securities for its own account that would be a Piggyback Registration and (ii) at the time of receipt of such notice has already taken substantial steps (including selecting a managing underwriter for such offering) and has proceeded and will continue to proceed with reasonable diligence to effect such offering or (y) such Shelf Offering will involve any marketing efforts involving in-person meetings with prospective investors; provided, however, that the Corporation agrees to cause management of the Corporation to participate in a reasonable number of telephone conferences with prospective investors as necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Corporation shall not be obligated to effect any subsequent Shelf Offering during any period following the pricing date of a completed Shelf Offering in which the Corporation is subject to a lock-up restriction pursuant to any lock-up agreements entered into in connection with such completed Shelf Offering. In connection with any Shelf Offering (including any Shelf Offering that is an underwritten offering): (a) such proposing Holder(s) shall also deliver the Take-Down Notice to all other Holders included on such Shelf Registration Statement and permit each such other Holder to include such other Holder’s Registrable Shares included on the Shelf Registration Statement in the Shelf Offering if such other Holder notifies the proposing Holder(s) and the Corporation within one Business Day after delivery of the Take-Down Notice to such Holder; and (b) if the Shelf Offering is underwritten, and if the managing underwriters of such Shelf Offering advise such other Holders in writing that in the opinion of the managing underwriters the total number or dollar amount of shares proposed to be sold exceeds the Maximum Number of Shares, then the managing underwriters may limit the number of Registrable Shares that would otherwise be included in such Shelf Offering, allocated pro rata among such Holders on the basis of the number of Registrable Shares requested by each such Holder to be included in such Shelf Offering (up to the Maximum Number of Shares). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time if a Shelf Registration Statement covering Registrable Shares is effective, and if a Holder wishes to engage in a Shelf Offering

- 9 -

that is an underwritten or other coordinated registered or “registered direct” offering not involving a “roadshow” (any such offer, a “Block Trade”), then notwithstanding the time periods provided for above, such Holder shall deliver a Take-Down Notice to the Corporation of the Block Trade at least two Business Days prior to the date that such offering is to commence and the Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade as expeditiously as possible; provided, however, that the Holders wishing to engage in the Block Trade shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Corporation and any underwriters to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus, and other offering documents related to the Block Trade provided, further, that the Block Trade must cover Registrable Shares having a Market Value of at least fifty million dollars ($50,000,000). Section 2.08 shall not apply to a Block Trade initiated by a Holder pursuant to this Section 2.09. The Holder initiating a Block Trade shall have the right to select the underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable, nationally recognized investment banks).

Section 2.10. Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Shares. If any registration pursuant to Article II will be in connection with a Marketed Offering or an underwritten offering (including with respect to a Shelf Offering or a Block Trade), the Corporation shall not effect any public sale or distribution of any Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Common Stock) (other than on Form S-8, Form S-4, or any successor or other forms promulgated for similar purposes, or solely in connection with an exchange offer or any employee benefit or dividend reinvestment plan) for its own account for such number of days following the date of the prospectus (or prospectus supplement if the offering is made pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement) for such offering as may be agreed upon with the underwriters managing such offering; provided that the Corporation shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its agreement to such duration if it is not materially inconsistent with prevailing market practice at the time of such offering. Each Holder agrees that for any registration pursuant to Article II that is in connection with a Marketed Offering or an underwritten offering (including with respect to a Shelf Offering or a Block Trade), whether or not such Holder is participating in such registration, upon the request of the Corporation and the underwriters managing such offering, such Holder will not effect (other than pursuant to such registration) any public sale or distribution of Common Stock (including any sale pursuant to Rule 144) or make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another Person any of the economic consequences of ownership of, any Common Stock, any other equity securities of the Corporation, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any equity securities of the Corporation, without the prior written consent of the Corporation or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such number of days following the closing of such offering as may be agreed upon with the underwriters managing such offering; provided that the Corporation shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its agreement to such duration if it is not materially inconsistent with prevailing market practice at the time of such offering. No Holder may participate in any Marketed Offering or an underwritten offering (including with respect to a Shelf Offering or a Block Trade) unless such Holder completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, “lock-up” agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

- 11 -

Statement or related prospectus (or any documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), as then in effect, untrue in any material respect or that requires any change to be made to such Registration Statement, prospectus, or documents so that in the case of such Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of such prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(e) The Corporation shall enter into such agreements (including underwriting agreements in form, scope, and substance as is customary and consistent with prevailing capital markets practice and containing customary indemnification and contribution provisions) and take all such other customary actions reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Shares being sold in connection therewith (including those reasonably requested by any underwriter) to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares and, in the case of each underwritten offering, shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection with such disposition, including, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.09 of this Agreement, causing appropriate officers to attend and participate in in-person drafting and due diligence sessions and in any “road show” organized by the underwriters.

(f) After the initial Effective Time of a Registration Statement, the Corporation shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable, prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and post-effective amendments to each Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective during the period provided in this Agreement and comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement and cause the related prospectus to be supplemented by any prospectus supplement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 (subject to Section 2.04 and Section 2.05).

(g) After the initial Effective Time of a Registration Statement, the Corporation shall, if requested by counsel to the Holders or any underwriter (if such filing relates to an underwritten offering), (i) promptly include in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the applicable Registration Statement such information as counsel to the Holders or any underwriter may reasonably request in order to permit the intended method of distribution of the Registrable Shares and (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or such post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Corporation has received such request.

(h) The Corporation shall promptly furnish to counsel to the Holders copies of all transmittal letters and other correspondence to the SEC and all correspondence (including comment letters) from the SEC to the Corporation relating to a Registration Statement or any prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto.

(i) After a Registration Statement is declared effective, and in connection with any underwritten offering under the Registration Statement, the Corporation shall furnish to the Holders whose Registrable Shares are included in such Registration Statement and to the underwriters such number of copies of the Registration Statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including all exhibits thereto but excluding documents incorporated by reference therein other than those that expressly relate to the offering or underwritten offering), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, and such other documents as any such Holders or underwriters may reasonably request, in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Shares included in the Registration Statement.

- 12 -

(j) The Corporation shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Shares under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States (in the event an exemption is not available) as any Holder of Registrable Shares covered by a Registration Statement reasonably (in the light of such Holder’s intended plan of distribution) requests and (ii) cause such Registrable Shares to be registered with or approved by such other Governmental Authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Corporation and do any and all other acts and things that may be reasonably necessary to enable such Holder to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Shares owned by such Holder; provided that the Corporation will not be required to (x) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph (j), (y) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction.

(k) The Corporation shall promptly notify each Holder of Registrable Shares covered by a Registration Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered (or deemed delivered) under the Securities Act or of the occurrence of any event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered (or deemed delivered) to the purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. Subject to Section 2.04, the Corporation shall as promptly as reasonably practicable prepare and furnish to each such Holder a supplement or amendment with respect to any prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered (or deemed delivered) to the purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading.

(l) The Corporation shall (i) make available for inspection at reasonable times by any underwriter participating in an underwritten offering pursuant to the Registration Statement and any other attorney, accountant, or other professional retained by any underwriter (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Corporation (collectively, the “Records”) as shall be reasonably necessary to enable the Inspectors to exercise their due diligence responsibilities and (ii) cause the Corporation’s and its significant Subsidiaries’ executive officers to, and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Corporation’s independent accountants to, promptly supply all information reasonably requested by any Inspector in connection with such Registration Statement or underwritten offering.

- 13 -

(o) The Corporation shall cooperate with, and direct the Corporation’s transfer agent to cooperate with, the selling Holders of Registrable Shares and any underwriter (if such filing relates to an underwritten offering), to facilitate the timely settlement of any offering or sale of Registrable Shares, including the preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any legend unless required under applicable law) or book-entry (not bearing stop transfer instructions unless required under applicable law) representing Registrable Shares to be sold after receiving written representations from each Holder of such Registrable Shares that the Registrable Shares represented by the certificates so delivered or book-entry so presented by such Holder will be transferred in accordance with the Registration Statement and, in connection therewith, if reasonably required by the Corporation’s transfer agent, the Corporation shall promptly after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement cause an opinion of counsel as to the effectiveness of any Registration Statement to be delivered to and maintained with the transfer agent, together with any other authorization, certificate, or direction required by the transfer agent that authorizes and directs the transfer agent to issue such Registrable Shares without restriction upon sale by the Holder of such shares of Registrable Shares under the Registration Statement.

(p) The Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Shares covered by a Demand Registration Statement or Piggyback Registration to be listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.

(q) The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to timely file the reports and materials required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Shares without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemption provided by Rule 144. Upon the request of a Holder, the Corporation shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether the Corporation has complied with such requirements and shall provide such customary assurances as any broker or dealer facilitating a sale of Registrable Shares under Rule 144 may reasonably request.

(r) The Corporation shall cooperate with each selling Holder of Registrable Shares and each underwriter or agent participating in the disposition of such Registrable Shares and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with FINRA. Such cooperation shall include the Corporation’s use of its reasonable best efforts to obtain FINRA’s pre-clearance or pre-approval of any Registration Statement and/or applicable prospectus upon filing with the SEC if necessary.

Section 3.02. Holder Responsibilities.

(a) The Corporation may require each Holder of Registrable Shares included in a Registration Statement to promptly furnish in writing to the Corporation such information regarding such Holder or the distribution of the Registrable Shares as the Corporation may from time to time reasonably request and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such registration or required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Corporation by such Holder not materially misleading or necessary to cause such Registration Statement not to omit a material fact with respect to such Holder necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading. The right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Shares in any Registration Statement shall be subject to its compliance with this Section 3.02(a).

(b) In connection with any disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement, no Holder shall use any Free Writing Prospectus without the prior consent of the Corporation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

- 14 -

If the Corporation gives such notice with regard to any Registration Statement, the Corporation shall extend the Effectiveness Period during which the effectiveness of such Registration Statement shall be maintained by the number of days during the period from (and including) the date of the notice given by the Corporation to the date when the Corporation shall make available to such Holder a prospectus or prospectus supplement that conforms with the requirements of Section 3.01(k).

(d) Each Holder shall comply with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and all applicable state securities laws in connection with the registration and the disposition of Registrable Shares pursuant hereto.

(e) Each Holder of Registrable Shares included in a Registration Statement will enter into and perform agreements (including underwriting or similar agreements in customary form and consistent with prevailing capital markets practice and containing customary indemnification and contribution provisions) containing such terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to selling stockholders, take such other commercially reasonable actions as are required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registrable Shares pursuant hereto, and provide all reasonable cooperation customary for similar dispositions in connection herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any underwriting agreement to include, with respect to the Holders, indemnification and contribution provisions that are substantially to the effect provided in Article IV.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 4.01. Indemnification By the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law each Holder whose Registrable Shares are covered by a Registration Statement, such Holder’s officers, directors, partners, managing members, agents, other Affiliates, and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, or any action or proceeding in respect thereof (each, a “Liability,” and collectively, “Liabilities”), as incurred, arising out of, or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus relating to such Registrable Shares (or in any amendment or supplement thereto), any Free Writing Prospectus, or any other document (including any related Registration Statement, notification, or the like) incident to any such registration, qualification, or compliance, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to the Corporation by such Holder or on such Holder’s behalf, in either such case expressly for use therein; provided, however, that with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any prospectus, the indemnification obligations contained in this Section shall not apply to the extent that any such Liability results from (a) the fact that a current copy of the prospectus was not sent or given to the Person asserting any such Liability at or prior to the written confirmation to such Person of the applicable sale of the Registrable Shares, if it is determined that the Corporation provided such

- 15 -

prospectus before such confirmation and it was the responsibility of such Holder or such Holder’s agents to provide such Person with a current copy of the prospectus and such current copy of the prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to such Liability, (b) the use of any prospectus by or on behalf of any Holder after the Corporation has notified such Person in writing (i) pursuant to Section 3.01(k) that such prospectus contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (ii) pursuant to Section 2.05 that a stop order has been issued by the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement, or (iii) pursuant to Section 2.04(a) that an MNPI Disclosure Condition exists, or (c) the use of any prospectus by or on behalf of any Holder with respect to any Registrable Shares after such time as the Corporation’s obligation to keep the Registration Statement effective in respect of such Registrable Shares has expired.

Section 4.02. Indemnification By Holders of Registrable Shares. Each Holder whose Registrable Shares are included in any Registration Statement shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law (including reimbursement of the Corporation for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred by it in investigating or defending such Liabilities) the Corporation, its officers, directors, agents, other Affiliates, and each Person who controls the Corporation (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), from and against any and all Liabilities, as incurred, arising out of, or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus relating to such Registrable Shares, any amendments or supplements thereto, “issuer free writing prospectus” (as such term is defined in Rule 433), or other document relating to such Registrable Shares (or in any amendment or supplement thereto), or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the indemnification obligations contained in this Section 4.02 shall apply only to the extent that such Liabilities arise out of or are based upon information furnished in writing by such Holder or on such Holder’s behalf, in either case expressly for use in the Registration Statement, prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto relating to such Holder’s Registrable Shares.

Section 4.03. Conduct of Indemnification Proceeding. After receipt by any Person who may seek indemnification pursuant to Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 (an “Indemnified Party”) of any written notice of the commencement of any action, suit, proceeding, or investigation, or threat thereof made in writing, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing; provided, however, that the delay or failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation or liability except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced by such delay or failure. If notice of commencement of any such action, suit, proceeding, or investigation, or written threat is so given to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. In any such proceeding so assumed by the Indemnifying Party, any Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (a) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (b) representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing or conflicting interests between them. The Indemnifying Party, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, shall be liable only for the reasonable fees and expenses of one firm of attorneys (in addition to any necessary local counsel) at any time for all such Indemnified Parties; and all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred upon submission of reasonably itemized invoices that comply with the Corporation’s standard billing policies for outside

counsel. In the case of any such separate firm for Holders who are entitled to indemnity pursuant to Section 4.01, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Party who had the largest number of Registrable Shares included in the applicable Registration Statement. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but in the case of settlement with such consent, or in the case of a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability (to the extent stated above) by reason of such settlement or judgment. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

Section 4.04. Contribution.

(a) If the indemnification provided for hereunder shall for any reason be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Liability referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Liabilities between the Corporation, on the one hand, and each Holder whose Registrable Shares are covered by the applicable Registration Statement, on the other hand, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Corporation and of each such Holder in connection with any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto or caused by any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, which resulted in such Liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Corporation, on the one hand, and of each such Holder, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(b) The Corporation and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.04 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of the Liabilities referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article IV, no Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Registrable Shares sold by such Holder under the Registration Statement exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Exchange Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation.

(b) The Corporation shall not hereafter enter into or amend any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof.

(c) As of the date hereof, there are no outstanding “piggyback” or other registration rights granted by the Corporation that would entitle any Person (other than the Ivory Holder and the other Holders) to participate in any registration contemplated by this Agreement, and the Corporation agrees not to grant any rights to so participate to any Person which are more favorable than or inconsistent with the rights granted hereunder (other than the Ivory Holder and any Permitted Assignees) after the date hereof and while this Agreement remains in effect.

Section 5.04. Agreement Among Holders. Whenever provision is made in this Agreement for pro rata allocation among Holders of Registrable Shares to be included in an underwritten offering, such Holders may instead agree in a subsequent writing signed by all of the affected Holders as to the relative proportions of Registrable Shares owned by each Holder to be included in such underwritten offering (up to the Maximum Number of Shares, after taking into account all other shares that have priority in such underwritten offering).

Section 5.05. Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto shall execute such documents and perform such acts as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out or perform the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 5.06. Amendments and Waivers. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless consented to in writing by the Corporation and Holders of at least 50% of the Registrable Shares held by all Holders of Registrable Shares outstanding as of such date.

- 19 -

Section 5.07. Termination; Survival. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion of Registrable Shares in any Registration Statement pursuant to Article II shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of:

(a) the date upon which all Registrable Shares may be freely offered and sold in any quantity without restriction and without registration under the Securities Act; and

(b) the date on which this Agreement is terminated by the mutual consent of the parties hereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the parties under Articles IV and V shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 5.08. Nominees for Beneficial Owners. If any Registrable Shares are held by a nominee for the beneficial owner thereof, the beneficial owner thereof may, at its election in writing delivered to the Corporation, be treated as the Holder of such Registrable Shares for purposes of any request, consent, waiver, or other action by any Holder or Holders of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement or any determination of any number or percentage of Registrable Shares held by any Holder or Holders of Registrable Shares contemplated by this Agreement. If the beneficial owner of any Registrable Shares makes the election provided in this Section 5.08 the Corporation may require assurances reasonably satisfactory to it of such owner’s beneficial ownership of such Registrable Shares.

Section 5.09. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Sections 4.01, 4.02, and 4.04, this Agreement is not intended, and shall not be deemed, to confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns or to otherwise create any third-party beneficiary hereto.

Section 5.10. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and to their respective successors and, in the case of any Holder, its Permitted Assignees. Any successor or Permitted Assignee of any Holder shall be deemed a Holder for all purposes of this Agreement to the extent such successor or Permitted Assignee owns Registrable Shares. No Holder may assign its rights hereunder to any Person, except for assignments of such Holder’s rights in whole or in part to any Permitted Assignee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Corporation may not assign its obligations hereunder.

Section 5.11. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event that such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that shall achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business, and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

- 20 -

Section 5.12. Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or provisions or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the parties are entitled at law or in equity.

Section 5.13. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

Section 5.14. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; VENUE. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF DELAWARE CHANCERY COURT OR, IF THE DELAWARE CHANCERY COURT DOES NOT HAVE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, THE STATE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE LOCATED IN WILMINGTON, DELAWARE, OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR ANY DISTRICT WITHIN SUCH STATE, FOR THE PURPOSE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 5.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Where used with respect to any information or document, “made available,” “provided,” “delivered” or “furnished” (or any other word or phrase of similar meaning as any of the foregoing), means that the information or document referred to has been physically or electronically delivered to the relevant Parties, including, in the case of information or documents “made available,” “provided,” “delivered” or “furnished” (or any other word or phrase of similar meaning as any of the foregoing) to Purchaser, information or documents that have been posted in the Data Room, or has been publicly disclosed prior to the date hereof.

ARTICLE 2

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

Section 2.1 Services. During the Service Term and otherwise subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Provider shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Recipient and its Affiliates the services set forth on Exhibit A to this Agreement and the Property Services set forth on Exhibit B to this Agreement (each service, a “Service” and, collectively, the “Services”) in each case in accordance with the Services Standard.

Section 2.2 Scope of Services. Recipient acknowledges that during the Transition Period, Provider may be providing similar services, and/or services that involve the same resources, as those used to provide the Services, to its internal organizations, Affiliates and to third parties, and, accordingly, Provider reserves the right to reasonably supplement, modify, substitute or otherwise alter the Services or the manner in which such Services are provided in connection with changes to its internal organization, relocation of the Services, outsourcing of a particular Service, responding to a reasonably plausible security threat or protecting its intellectual property (including, confidential information); provided that Provider or its Affiliates (i) are making similar changes in performing similar services for their own Affiliates or in performing similar services for the Business, and (ii) if applicable, furnish to Recipient substantially the same notice (in content and timing) as Provider or its Affiliates shall furnish to their own Affiliates with respect to such changes; and provided further that if any such change is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the provision of the Services in accordance with the Service Standards, Provider will give Recipient at least sixty (60) days advance notice if practicable prior to implementing any such change and upon Recipient’s request, Provider will cooperate in good faith with Recipient to identify, and if commercially feasible, to implement, a work-around or other alternative arrangement for any affected Service.

Section 2.3 Limitation to Services. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Services are intended only to be transitional in nature and shall be furnished by Provider only during the Transition Period and solely for the purpose of accommodating Recipient in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the exhibits attached to this Agreement, Provider shall have no obligation under this Agreement to (i) provide Services to any Person other than Recipient and its Affiliates, (ii) engage in any unlawful activity, (iii) provide Services that would reasonably be expected to result in a violation of any applicable law or regulation, (iv) disclose any information that would be reasonably likely to result in the loss of attorney-client privilege or similar privilege (provided that Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to make substitute disclosure arrangements that would not result in the loss of such privilege), (v) implement systems, processes, technologies, plans or initiatives developed, acquired or utilized by Provider or its Affiliates after the Effective Date, if such systems, processes, technologies, plans or initiatives were not utilized by Provider or its Affiliates in providing services to the Business during the six (6) month period immediately prior to the Effective Date (such period, the “Reference Period”), or (vi) subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, provide a Service when Consent from a Third Party Provider has not been obtained. Except as otherwise agreed by the Parties in respect of any Omitted Service, Provider shall not be required to provide, and the descriptions of Services in Exhibit A shall not be construed to require Provider to provide, any Services under this Agreement that were not being provided to the Business during the Reference Period.

Section 2.4 Recipient Cooperation. Recipient agrees to cooperate in good faith and to use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate the timely and orderly transition of the Services from Provider to Recipient prior to the end of the applicable Service Term for each Service. Recipient acknowledges that the Services are being furnished in support of Recipient’s personnel. Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have sufficient resources available to it at the end of each Service Term to perform the applicable Services (or have such Services performed) without the involvement of Provider, its Affiliates or any of its or their employees or agents. Recipient shall and shall cause its Affiliates to permit Provider, its Affiliates and its and their respective employees and agents (including any applicable Third Party Provider) reasonable access during regular business hours (or otherwise upon reasonable prior notice) to such facilities, data and personnel as are involved in receiving or overseeing the Services, and records as reasonably requested by Provider to facilitate Provider’s performance of this Agreement.

Section 2.5 Third Party Consents. Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents, approvals or amendments to existing agreements of Provider with any third party vendor, landlord or subcontractor (“Third Party Provider”) necessary to allow it to provide the Services to Recipient (the “Consents”). Subject to provisions below in this Section 2.5, in the event that Provider is not able to obtain any Consent, Provider shall not be obliged to provide the relevant Services as long as such Consent has not been granted. Subject to the foregoing in this Section 2.5, in the event that any Consents are not obtained, or if a Consent is conditioned on payment of a fee to the Third Party Provider or an increase in the fees payable under Provider’s contract with the Third Party Provider or other onerous terms, then Provider will notify Recipient prior to committing to pay any such fee or increase and upon Recipient’s request, Provider will cooperate in good faith with Recipient to (i) negotiate with the Third Party Provider to minimize any such fee or increase and to arrange reasonable terms for such fee or increase in order to obtain the Consent and provide the applicable Services and/or (ii) to identify, and if commercially feasible, to implement, a work-around or other alternative arrangement for any affected Service, provided that (i) Provider shall not be required to relinquish or forbear any rights in connection with obtaining any Consents; and (ii) Recipient acknowledges that any such work-around or alternative arrangement may adversely impact the standards for provision of such Service set forth in this Agreement, and Provider shall not be liable for any breach of such applicable service standards set forth in this Agreement that results from the adoption of any such work-around or alternative arrangement. Any fees or increases in fees that become payable to a Third Party Provider as set forth in this Section 2.5 will be treated as Out-of-Pocket Charges subject to the provisions of Section 13.2. This Section 2.5 shall apply mutatis mutandis where a Service in whole or in part is provided by a Third Party Provider and Provider’s contract with such Third Party Provider expires or terminates any time after the Effective Date for any reason other than Provider’s breach.

Section 2.6 Designation of Personnel. Provider shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) designate which personnel it will assign to perform any Service and (ii) remove and replace such personnel at any time, except that in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), Provider shall not designate, remove, replace or otherwise allocate any such personnel in a manner that would adversely affect the ability of Provider to perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the Service Standards; provided, however, Provider shall have no obligation to replace any TSA Employee that has been hired or engaged by Recipient or any of its Affiliates and Recipient acknowledges that in such a case the Service Standard shall be modified in accordance with Section 18.6. In performing their respective duties hereunder, all personnel of Provider shall be under its sole direction, control and supervision, and Provider shall have the sole right to exercise all authority with respect to the employment (including termination of employment), assignment and compensation of such personnel.

delegated Services, and (iii) any actions of any Third Party Provider providing such delegated Services, including any breach of the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing in this Section 2.7, in the event of any reduction in the standard of performance of, or other adverse incident relating to the Services (or part thereof) provided or supported by Third Party Providers, that comes to the attention of Provider (including where Provider has been notified by Recipient of such reduction in the standard of performance or other adverse incident), Provider shall: (x) promptly notify Recipient of the same; (y) to the extent available, provide Recipient with all information reasonably requested in order to evaluate the issue or incident; and (z) use commercially reasonable efforts (in consultation with Recipient) to promptly remediate the issue or incident with the relevant Third Party Provider.

Section 2.8 Other Services.

(a) Commencing on the Effective Date and for six (6) months thereafter, the Recipient may identify any service, other than those services identified on Exhibit C (the “Excluded Services”), that: (i) had been provided prior to the Effective Date; or (ii) that, due to the separation of the Business from the business of Provider, is reasonably necessary to continue to conduct the Business in substantially the manner as the Business was conducted, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), during the Reference Period, but that is not included as a Service set forth this Agreement, including in accordance with Section 2.2 (each such service, an “Omitted Service”).

(b) Upon request by Recipient at any time during the Term, Provider shall provide any Omitted Service. For the avoidance of doubt, the Provider shall have no obligation to provide any Excluded Service. Provider shall negotiate in good faith with Recipient regarding the provision of, but shall have no obligation to provide, any Omitted Service that was not provided during the Reference Period (each, an “Additional Service”).

(c) Provider and Recipient shall negotiate in good faith the terms applicable to any Omitted Service or Additional Service, including the applicable Service Term therefor. The terms and conditions agreed upon in respect of any Omitted Service (or Additional Service if agreed) shall be agreed upon pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement and thereafter shall constitute part of the Services.

(d) Any negotiations relating to Omitted Services or Additional Services may include providing for the reimbursement of any reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the continuation of any service, or assisting in the transition, in all cases, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, provided, however, that Provider shall provide or cause to be provided all Omitted Services at Provider’s Actual Cost. “Actual Cost” means the actual cost (without mark-up) to Provider of delivering such Services, which shall include (A) employee and administrative costs, and (B) the third-party costs and expenses, incurred by Provider in providing such Services.

Provider shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, perform the Services in substantially the same

manner and at substantially the same level of service (including, as applicable, with respect to type, frequency, quality, quantity, priority, timeliness and geographic scope) as compared with the manner in which such Services were provided to the Business during the Reference Period and with substantially the same degree of skill, care and diligence as provided by Provider during the Reference Period (the “Services Standard”). Recipient acknowledges that the timely completion of any Service by Provider or its Affiliates may depend upon the provision of information, documentation, products and/or services by Recipient or its Affiliates, and that Provider shall not be responsible for the failure to provide such Service to the extent that such failure results from the failure of Recipient or its Affiliates to provide such information, documentation, products and/or services to Provider or its Affiliates. Under no circumstances shall Provider, its Affiliates or its or their respective employees or agents (including subcontractors) be held accountable to a greater standard of care, efforts or skill than the Services Standard. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Services do not include the exercise of business judgment or general management for Recipient or any of its Affiliates. Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that the Services Standard may change from time to time pursuant to Section 18.6. Without limiting any relevant Services Standard: (i) Provider will provide to Recipient reasonable advance notice of any potential interruption, scheduled or unscheduled, that is reasonably likely to interrupt or otherwise affect any Service to be provided by Provider hereunder; and (ii) Recipient will not be obligated to pay any Fees with respect to any period that the Services are interrupted or not provided. Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid any inability to provide the Services.

Provider shall immediately notify Recipient of any such denied or suspended access and shall provide all reasonable cooperation to Recipient to mitigate any adverse impact of such suspension on the Services. Provider will promptly take all actions necessary to remediate such violation or security risk and restore any such denied or suspended access as soon as reasonably practicable.

Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly after it suspects or determines that there has been an intrusion into such Party’s technology systems that poses a material risk of unauthorized access to, or unauthorized use, loss or destruction of, any systems or data of the other Party (including any inappropriate disclosure of any Access Code or data or information provided by Recipient that is collected, processed, generated, derived, stored by, transmitted or otherwise made available to Provider in connection with this Agreement, excluding Recipient Data), except, in the case of Recipient, Recipient shall also be required to notify Provider of any such intrusions regardless of whether they pose a material risk and whether or not Recipient Data is affected if the incident arose when the Recipient’s employees, consultants or sub-contractors had access to Provider’s technology systems, or would require disclosure under applicable Law (a “Security Incident”), provided that such Party may delay such notification if and to the extent directed by law enforcement. The notifying Party shall provide the other Party with a description of the Security Incident, including the systems and data that may be at risk due to the Security Incident. The Parties shall cooperate and assist each other in any investigation, mitigation and remediation efforts relating to any Security Incidents.

Provider shall schedule all Non-emergency Shutdowns in a manner that will not disrupt or interfere in any material respect with the operation of the Business as a whole and will in any event provide Recipient with reasonable prior written notice of such Non-emergency Shutdown (including reasonable information regarding the nature and the projected length of such Non-emergency Shutdown). In the event of an Emergency Shutdown, Provider shall provide such written notice as soon as reasonably practicable to Recipient, however, such notice may not be possible prior to the Emergency Shutdown.

Section 8.3 Interdependent Services. Where a particular Service (or multiple Services) is indicated in Exhibit A as interdependent on another Service(s) (“Interdependent Services”), if a Party seeks to terminate any Interdependent Service, then any other connected Service that is an Interdependent Service with the terminated Service will also automatically terminate.

CHANGE CONTROL

Section 11.1 Change Request. Where either Party wishes to make a change to this Agreement or any Service pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (a “Change”), the provisions of this Article 11 shall apply.

Section 11.3 Changes in Law. In the event that a change in Law adversely affects Provider’s ability to perform Provider’s obligations hereunder or Recipient’s ability to realize the benefit of this Agreement, the Parties shall promptly prepare and agree upon a Change Request setting out a plan for remediation of such adverse effects or an appropriate work around.

Specific items of confidential information shall not be deemed to fall within the foregoing exceptions merely because they may be embraced within a body of generally available information within such exception, nor shall any combination of features be deemed to fall within such exception merely because the individual features are within such exception. Each Party may make any legally required disclosure of such proprietary and confidential business information, but such Party shall (unless legally prohibited from doing so) notify the other Party before making any such legally required disclosure and shall limit the amount of the information so disclosed to that which is, in the reasonable opinion of such Party’s legal

counsel, legally required disclosure, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such information. This Section 12.1 shall not apply to non-public disclosures made by any Party to protect its rights and remedies under or with respect to this Agreement in the event of any dispute among the Parties or their Affiliates related hereto.

(a) In the event Provider or its Affiliates incur out-of-pocket charges or costs in performing their obligations hereunder, including increases in Third Party costs required for the provision of the Services (as sufficiently documented and evidenced by Provider), license fees, royalties, or other fees in connection with the implementation of special information technology measures (collectively, “Out-of-Pocket Charges”), all such Out-of-Pocket Charges shall be payable by Recipient in addition to the Service Fee; provided that (i) Provider shall have provided to Recipient reasonable prior notice and Recipient shall have provided its prior written consent, in each case, to all Out-of-Pocket Charges in an amount greater than fifteen thousand U.S. dollars ($15,000.00) prior to Provider causing such Out-of-Pocket Charges to be incurred; and further provided that if Recipient does not so consent, Provider shall have no obligation to provide such Service to the extent it is unable without having incurred such Out-of-Pocket Charge, and (ii) Out-of-Pocket Charges shall not include (x) any overhead costs, profits or other mark-ups otherwise incurred by the Provider, (y) fees paid directly by Recipient to any Third Party Provider, or (z) any amount already included in the Service Fee. Notwithstanding Article 11, any change to Service Fees may only be made pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement in accordance with Section 19.2. Recipient shall pay Service Fees and Out-of-Pocket Charges in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Section 13.3.

(b) If at any time Provider believes that its compensation is materially insufficient to compensate it for the cost of providing the Services, including personnel costs that were not contemplated as of the Effective Date, Provider shall notify Recipient in writing (setting forth in reasonable detail its view of why the compensation is not equitable) and the Parties will promptly commence good faith negotiations regarding the pricing of such Services for future periods.

place, Service Fees shall be paid monthly in arrears in U.K. pounds (£). To the extent that Service Fees payable with respect to a Sub-Services Agreement are subject to special conditions specified in the relevant Sub-Services Agreement as necessary to comply with or address local law requirements, including with regard to tax treatment, the Affiliate of Provider that is party to such Sub-Services Agreement shall be solely responsible for any additional costs or expenses incurred by such Affiliate or Recipient in order to comply with such special conditions, subject to compliance with Section 13.5. Each invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the Service Fee pursuant to Section 13.1 and out-of-pocket charges and costs pursuant to Section 13.2 with respect to the applicable month or as otherwise agreed by the Parties, and shall be delivered within thirty (30) days after the end of each applicable month or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. Recipient shall pay Provider or its designated Affiliate, as the case may be, all amounts set forth on such invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice, or such other time period as may be agreed by Recipient and Provider or the applicable Affiliate of Provider. All such invoices shall be delivered to Recipient at Recipient’s address as set forth in Section 19.1 or as Recipient shall later designate by written notice to Provider. Any payments concerning such invoices shall be made to Provider or its designated Affiliate by wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more accounts specified by Provider or its designated Affiliate. Provider or its designated Affiliate shall have the right to assess interest at an annual rate equal to the prime lending rate as publishing in The Wall Street Journal plus two percentage points for any month in which a balance is past due against all past due amounts or such other rate as may be set out in a Sub-Services Agreement, but not to exceed the maximum interest charges permitted by Law.

Section 13.4 Quarterly True-Up for Engage Services. Promptly following the end of each Provider fiscal quarter, Provider shall deliver to Recipient a statement (the “True-Up Statement”) setting forth, in reasonable detail, all (i) amounts invoiced for such fiscal quarter for Engage Services as set out in Sections E.5 through E.13 in Exhibit A to this Agreement and (ii) the amount required to reconcile the actual fees for such fiscal quarter versus the amount of fees paid for such fiscal quarter by Recipient to Provider for the Engage Services described in Part E.12.2 of Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “True-Up Amount”), either to be paid by Recipient to Provider or, in lieu of Provider’s payment to Recipient, to be held on credit and applied to the next quarter’s True-Up Statement. If such Engage Services are terminated before a fiscal quarter end, Provider shall provide a True-Up Statement to Recipient effective as of such termination date and the True-Up Amount, if any, will be paid by Recipient to Provider or by Provider to Recipient. The True-Up Amount, if any, shall be paid by Recipient or Provider, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days of the True-Up Statement, or such other time period as may be agreed by Recipient and Provider.

Services that sets forth the amount of Service Taxes that are due, and Recipient shall pay the amount of Service Taxes set forth on such invoice to Provider in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Section 13.3. Recipient shall provide Provider with such other information as Provider reasonably requests to determine the amount of any such Service Taxes. If Recipient is exempt from any such Service Taxes, Recipient shall furnish Provider with a valid and properly completed resale or exemption certificate as required under applicable Law. If any deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax is required by Law from any payment by Recipient under this Agreement, Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such payment to the extent required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any payment by Recipient, then the sum payable by Recipient shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made, Provider receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required; provided, however, if the Supplier determines acting reasonably in good faith that it received a refund or obtained and utilised a credit for any Tax deducted or withheld by the Service Recipient, the Supplier shall promptly pay the amount of such refund or the amount of Tax actually saved in consequence of the utilisation of such credit to the Service Recipient. To the extent Provider delivers to Recipient such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit any payment to be paid without deduction or withholding or at a reduced rate of deduction or withholding, Recipient will reduce or eliminate such deduction or withholding in accordance with applicable Law.

Section 13.6 No Right to Set-Off. Recipient shall pay to Provider the full amount of Service Fees and other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement and not set-off, counterclaim or otherwise withhold any amount owed or claimed to be owed to Recipient under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or otherwise, on account of any obligation owed by Provider, whether or not such obligation has been finally adjudicated, settled or otherwise agreed upon in writing.

Section 14.1 Data Security.

(a) Recipient hereby agrees that it shall and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the standards and policies of Provider and its Affiliates provided to Recipient to the extent applicable to Recipient’s and its Affiliates’ use of the Services, including any data privacy policies, policies with respect to the protection of proprietary information and any other information and security policies, in each case as provided by Provider to Recipient. To the extent Recipient and/or its Affiliates may not be able to comply with such standards or policies, Recipient shall inform Provider in writing of its inability to comply and Provider and its Affiliates shall cooperate in good faith with Recipient or the applicable Affiliate of Recipient to determine an appropriate course of action in order to ensure Recipient is able to realize the benefit the Services; provided, however, that Provider and its Affiliates may refuse to provide the Services to Recipient and its Affiliates to the extent that, in Provider’s reasonable judgment, such non-compliance with any conditions or policies results in a material risk to Provider’s or its Affiliates’ business operations.

Section 14.2 Data Protection Law. Without limiting Section 14.1, the Parties shall, and shall cause their Affiliate and their employees, agents and sub-contractors to comply, with the Data Protection Law and all other applicable data protection laws in connection with the performance of their obligations under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement:

“Data Protection Law” means all applicable law relating to data privacy and data protection including: (i) the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR); (ii) the GDPR as it forms part of the domestic law of the UK by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (UK GDPR); (iii) the e-Privacy Directive (2002/58/EC) and the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (SI 2003/2426); (iv) the UK Data Protection Act 2018, (v) the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act) (CCPA); and (vi) other US comprehensive privacy laws, in each case as amended, consolidated, replaced or updated from time to time and together with any subordinate or related legislation made under any of the foregoing which are applicable to Provider, Recipient.

“Recipient Data” means all personal data in whatever form or medium which is (i) supplied, or in respect of which access is granted, to Provider (or any Sub-processor) whether by Recipient, Beneficiaries, or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, or (ii) produced or generated by or on behalf of Provider (or any Sub-processor) in connection with this Agreement.

“Sub-processor” means any sub-contractor or other party engaged by Provider in relation to the Services who is or will be processing Recipient Data.

Section 14.3 Data Processing. The Parties agree that for each data processing activity where Provider processes data on behalf of Recipient, the following sets out the information required by Article 28(3) GDPR:


		Subject matter of processing		The provision of Services under this Agreement.

		Duration of processing		In respect of each Service, from the Effective Date until the applicable Service Termination Date.

		Nature of processing		See service scope in Exhibit A.

		Purpose of processing		To provide data hosting, analytics, fulfilment of customer orders, processing supplier payments. Further detail in the service scope in Exhibit A.

		Type of personal data		Name, date of birth, email address, postal address, financial data, bank account information.

		Categories of data transfers		Which countries and territories the personal data will be transferred from and to.

Section 14.4 For the purposes of this Agreement, the Parties agree that Provider (and any Sub-processor) shall be a data processor (or “service provider,” as defined under the CCPA) and the Recipient shall be the data controller (or “business” as defined under the CCPA). Therefore, Provider shall:

(a) only process Recipient Data as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement or as required by law applicable to it; provided that Provider first informs Recipient of that legal requirement before processing, unless that law prohibits this on important grounds of public interest;

(b) ensure that all staff who have access to Recipient Data have committed themselves to appropriate obligations of confidentiality;

(c) maintain all appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure security of Recipient Data, which shall be compliant with Provider’s applicable IT security policies; and

(d) assist Recipient to fulfil its obligation to respond to requests for exercising of data subject rights (including access requests) existing under Data Protection Law (Rights of the data subject);

(e) not engage any Sub-processor in relation to the Services without the prior written authorisation of Recipient or except pursuant to the following general authorisation. Recipient hereby grants Provider a general authorisation to engage Sub-processors as necessary to perform the Services; provided that: (i) Provider has notified Recipient in advance of the name of the Sub-processor and details of the particular Services being sub-contracted to it; or (ii) the delegation of processing to the Sub-processor was undertaken prior to the Effective Date and relates to the provision of the Services. Recipient shall have the right to object to any new Sub-processor within seven (7) days after the date of a notification; provided however such objection may only be on reasonable grounds and Provider shall only be obligated to negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objection. Provider may notify Recipient of Sub-processors by sending Recipient a notice by email. Provider will conduct appropriate due diligence in respect of the Sub-processor’s data privacy and security practices and procedures and shall enter into a written agreement with each Sub-processor containing obligations which are equivalent to those set out in this Section 14.4(e). If Recipient objects to the engagement by Provider of any new Sub-processor during the Term and that impacts the ability of Provider to perform any part of the Services, Provider may remove the affected Service from the scope of this Agreement;

(f) not transfer any Recipient Data outside the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area (EEA), except as described in Provider’s privacy policy at www.informa.com/privacy-policy or otherwise with the express prior written consent of Recipient (which may include, as appropriate, the Parties putting in place an additional data transfer mechanism, such as approved contractual clauses (or identifying an appropriate derogation) to enable any such transfer to be undertaken in accordance with applicable Data Protection Law);

(g) if requested by Recipient, provide Recipient with reports concerning Provider’s data protection procedures relating to its compliance with this Section 14.4;

(h) notify Recipient as soon as reasonably practicable and in writing if it becomes aware of a personal data breach and provide Recipient with assistance in responding and mitigating it;

(i) maintain a log of personal data breaches;

(j) assist Recipient in complying with Article 35 (Data Protection Impact Assessment) and Article 36 (Prior Consultation) of the GDPR in respect of any new type of processing proposed, in accordance with the Data Protection Law; and

(k) on expiry or termination of this Agreement, either destroy all Recipient Data or transfer it to Recipient or a nominated Third Party (in a mutually agreed format and by a mutually agreed method), with the exception that Provider shall be entitled to retain specific Recipient Data if required by applicable Law or if permitted for certain legitimate business purposes, as further described in Provider’s privacy policy at www.informa.com/privacy-policy.

Section 14.5 Protection Measures. Each of the Parties agrees to maintain appropriate technical and organizational measures against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access and against all other unlawful forms of processing of any personal data provided or received pursuant to this Agreement. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the measures maintained by Provider as the Effective Date are appropriate and sufficient for the purposes of this Section 14.5.

ARTICLE 15

DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Section 15.1 Disclaimer of Representations and Warranties. EXCEPT FOR ANY EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS AFFILIATES ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES.

Section 15.2 Limitation of Liability. Subject to Section 15.4 neither Party nor any of its Affiliates shall be liable, whether in warranty, contract, tort or otherwise, for any consequential damages, special damages, incidental or indirect damages, loss of revenue or profits, diminution in value, damages based on multiple of revenue or earnings or other performance metric, loss of business reputation, punitive and exemplary damages or any similar damages of the other Party, or any of its Affiliates or any of their officers, employees, agents or representatives, which in any way arise out of, relate to, or are a consequence of, such Party’s or any Affiliate of such Party’s performance or nonperformance hereunder, or the provision of or failure to provide any of the Services hereunder.

Section 15.3 Caps on Liability. Subject to Section 15.4, the liability of Provider, on the one hand, or Recipient, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement or anything done in connection herewith, including the performance or breach hereof, or from the sale, delivery, provision or use of any of the Services provided under or pursuant to this Agreement, whether in warranty, contract, tort (including any form of negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or strict liability) or otherwise, shall not exceed an amount equaling the Service Fee payable by Recipient to Provider or any Affiliate of Provider, without giving effect to any reduction pursuant to Exhibit E, during the preceding twelve (12) months in respect of the Service from which such liability flows (or 150% of such amount in the case of a breach of Article 14). With respect to any Service that is provided by a third-party subcontractor, Provider’s total liability for any nonperformance of, or failure to perform, such Service (a “Subcontractor Performance Failure”) shall be strictly limited to the actual recovery from such subcontractor of any damages or indemnification under contract or at law that are attributable to such Subcontractor Performance Failure, and in no event shall Provider have any further liability in respect thereof. If requested by Recipient, Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue any remedies it may have against a subcontractor for such Subcontractor Performance Failure. Service Recipient shall reimburse Provider for any costs and expenses incurred by Provider in pursuing remedies on Recipient’s behalf. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate damages for which the other Party is responsible in connection with this Agreement.

Section 15.4 The limitations on liability set forth in Section 15.2 and Section 15.3 shall not apply to limit liability arising from: (i) the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Party; or (ii) the intentional or willful cessation of any obligations of Provider in a manner not contemplated by this Agreement or refusal of Provider to make available any Services.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 16.1 Indemnification.

(a) Recipient shall indemnify Provider and Affiliates of Provider and its and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, employees, counsel, financial advisors, accountants, consultants and other advisors, representatives and agents (each a “Provider Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Provider Indemnified Parties”), and defend and hold the Provider Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all damages, fines, penalties, losses, liabilities (including settlements and judgments) and expenses (including interest, court costs, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, or other reasonable fees and expenses of litigation or other proceedings relating to a claim, default or assessment) (collectively, “Losses”) that may be paid or are suffered or incurred by any Provider Indemnified Party that arise out of or relate to any suit, claim, action or cause of action, demand or proceeding asserted by a Third Party against the Indemnified Party (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) that allege (1) any material breach by Recipient or any Affiliate of Recipient of its obligations under Article 12 (Confidentiality) and Article 14 (Compliance, Data Protection), or (2) the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Recipient or any Affiliate of Recipient.

(b) Provider shall indemnify Recipient and Affiliates of Recipient and its and their respective directors, officers, managers, partners, employees, counsel, financial advisors, accountants, consultants and other advisors, representatives and agents (each a “Recipient Indemnified Party” and collectively the “Recipient Indemnified Parties”), and defend and hold the Recipient Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all Losses that may be paid or are suffered or incurred by any Recipient Indemnified Party that arise out of or relate to any Third Party Claims that allege (1) any material breach by Provider or any Affiliate of Provider of its obligations under Article 12 (Confidentiality) and Article 14 (Compliance, Data Protection), or (2) the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Provider or any Affiliate of Provider.

Section 16.2 Indemnification Procedure.

(a) Any Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the Party or Parties liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any assertion of any pending or threatened Third Party Claim that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, describing in reasonable detail the relevant facts and circumstances; provided, however, that the failure to provide timely notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article 16 except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure.

(b) Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 16.2(a) with respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may assume the defense and control of such Third Party Claim. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such claim, it shall allow the Indemnified Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense; provided, that (i) if the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have a conflict of interest or different defenses available with respect to such Third Party Claim or (ii) the Indemnifying Party has not in fact employed counsel to assume control of such defense, the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel (in addition to local counsel) to the Indemnified Parties shall be considered “Losses” for purposes of this Agreement.

Provider and Recipient, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their respective Indemnified Parties to, cooperate fully with the Controlling Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control such defense.

to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement, (ii) not encumber any of the assets of any Identified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to 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 and (y) such settlement or consent shall not include an admission of wrongdoing on the part of any Indemnified Party. Each Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Agreement.

ARTICLE 17

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 17.1 Dispute Resolution. If there is a dispute between the Parties hereto or their respective Affiliates arising out of or relating to this Agreement, either Party may, at any time, give notice to the other Party requesting to discuss actions that might be taken to resolve such dispute and the Parties hereto shall, promptly upon receipt of such notice, negotiate in good faith with respect to the disputed issue and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate or require (or be construed to obligate or require) either Party to agree upon any such actions. If the Parties hereto shall have failed to reach a resolution of the dispute within thirty (30) days after notice of such dispute has been given, either Provider or Recipient, as the case may be, may submit by written notice to the other Party a request that the respective senior officers of Provider and Recipient discuss such actions, and as promptly as practicable after such notice of submission has been given, each of Provider and Recipient shall cause such senior officers to negotiate in good faith with respect to such actions and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within ten (10) days of the matter being submitted to them; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate or require (or be construed to obligate or require) any of such senior officers to agree upon any such actions. If at the end of such time the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute amicably, then nothing in this Article 17 shall prevent a Party from seeking to adjudicate such a dispute pursuant to Section 19.11, nor shall this Article 17 prevent a Party from seeking a judicial resolution on an emergency or similar expedited basis (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 19.11). Except where prohibited or enjoined by order of an authority with jurisdiction over a Party, each Party shall continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement during any period of time when the dispute resolution procedures outlined above are being followed.

ARTICLE 18

EMPLOYEES

Section 18.2 Recipient Employees. To the extent that any employees of the Recipient or its Affiliates or an Existing Provider allege or assert that their employment transfers to the Provider or its Affiliates pursuant to the Transfer Regulations on commencement of all or part of the Services, or there is a determination to the same effect (the “Non-Disclosed Recipient Employee(s)”) the Provider, or its relevant Affiliate, shall be indemnified against all Liabilities (i) arising out of or related to the employment of the Non-Disclosed Recipient Employee and the termination of the employment of the Non-Disclosed Recipient Employee; and (ii) that it or they may have incurred by reason of any failure to comply with Regulation 13 or 14 of TUPE or comparable provisions under the Transfer Regulations in respect of any such employees outside of the UK, provided that:

(b) within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notification, the Recipient may make to that Person an offer of employment or notify the Provider that no such offer shall be made;

(c) within ten (10) Business Days of becoming aware of such offer having been made and/or notification that no offer shall be made, the Provider terminates the employment of such Person; and

(d) this indemnity will not apply to the extent that any Liabilities arise from or are exacerbated by any act of discrimination, victimization, harassment or other serious impropriety by the Provider, or its relevant Affiliate, and the Provider agrees that it shall (or shall procure that the Provider Affiliate shall) discharge all such Liabilities in respect of such discrimination, victimization, harassment and/or serious impropriety.

Section 18.3 Provider Employees. To the extent that any TSA Employee alleges or asserts that their employment transfers to the Recipient or its Affiliates pursuant to the Transfer Regulations on termination of all or part of the Services, or there is a determination to the same effect (the “Non-Disclosed Provider Employee(s)”), then:

(a) if the Recipient or its relevant Affiliate has an appropriate vacancy then the Non-Disclosed Provider Employee should be considered for the role in accordance with Section 18.5 below; and

(b) the Recipient, or relevant Affiliate, shall be indemnified against all Liabilities (i) arising out of or related to the employment of the Non-Disclosed Provider Employee and the termination of the employment of the Non-Disclosed Provider Employee (save for any Non-Disclosed Provider Employee who accepts a vacancy with the Recipient or any of its Affiliates); and (ii) that it or they may have incurred by reason of any failure to comply with Regulation 13 or 14 of TUPE or comparable provisions under the Transfer Regulations in respect of any such employees outside the UK, provided that:

(i) the Recipient shall notify the Provider of any such allegation, assertion or determination promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of becoming aware of it;

Section 18.4 The Parties acknowledge and agree that in view of their intention and agreement set out in Sections 18.2 and 18.3, it would not be just and equitable for any claim to be made by the relevant transferee in respect of any failure to provide Employee Liability Information in respect of any Non-Disclosed Recipient Employee or Non-Disclosed Provider Employee (as defined in Regulation 11 of TUPE), or such similar provision in the Transfer Regulations as applies in relation to those employees outside of the UK.

Section 18.5 Toro Vacancies. In relation to those TSA Employees performing the Services listed at Part C.4 (Group HR Services) and E (Business Support Services) of Exhibit A only, during the period commencing three (3) months prior to each Service Termination Date:

(a) the Recipient shall promptly inform the Provider of any vacancies with the Recipient and its Affiliates that may reasonably be considered to be relevant to the TSA Employees for that Service (the “Vacancies”);

(b) the Provider shall, at its discretion, disclose the Vacancies to the TSA Employees for that Service;

(d) the Provider will, at its discretion, provide the Recipient with access to any TSA Employee who applies for a Vacancy and take reasonable steps to facilitate discussions between the Recipient and the relevant TSA Employee in relation to any Vacancies;

THIS AGREEMENT is made [•];

BETWEEN:

(1)	[RELEVANT IVORY ENTITY] (the “Supplier”); and

(2)	Toro CombineCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Service Recipient”).

WHEREAS:

(A)

The Supplier and Service Recipient are party to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 10, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among TechTarget, Inc., Toro CombineCo, Inc., Toro Acquisition Sub, LLC, Informa PLC, Informa US Holdings Limited, and Informa Intrepid Holdings Inc.,, pursuant to which the Bluefin Business will be owned by Bluefin and its Affiliates and all of the outstanding equity of Bluefin and Toro will be owned by CombineCo.

(B)

Prior to Closing occurring under the Merger Agreement, it may not be possible for all of the employees assigned to the Bluefin Business in the Service Jurisdiction to be transferred to or remain employed by an appropriate employing entity of the Service Recipient or its Group (or a third party entity engaged by the Service Recipient or its Group). Accordingly, the Supplier and certain members of its Group has agreed to supply to the Service Recipient, on a transitional basis, services for the operation of the Bluefin Business in the Service Jurisdiction (the “Services”) to be carried out by those individuals (as identified in Schedule 1) who are employees of the relevant Supplier Employers and are reasonably necessary for the performance of the Services by the Supplier to the Service Recipient, during the term of this Agreement.

NOW IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1.	Commencement and Term.

2.	Provision of the Services.

2.1

The Supplier shall (or shall procure that the relevant Supplier Employer shall) provide the relevant Services to the Service Recipient (or to the relevant members of the Service Recipient’s Group) in the Service Jurisdiction (until the provision of the Services is terminated in accordance with Clause 10).

2.2

For the purposes of providing the Services, the Supplier shall (or shall procure that the relevant Supplier Employer shall) make use of the employees of the Supplier Employer, in the Service Jurisdiction (the “Service Employees”). The Service Employees shall be assigned duties as may be determined by the Service Recipient consistent with the job, title, duties and reporting responsibilities that they have with the relevant Supplier Employer on the date of this Agreement.

2.3

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Supplier shall have no obligation to provide the Services to the Service Recipient pursuant to this Agreement where to do so would put any Party, any of the Supplier Employers, any of the Service Employees or any of the employees of the Service Recipient or Supplier Employers in breach of:

2.3.1

any applicable law, immigration rules or work permit requirements; or

2.3.2

the rules of any entity or authority which regulates the business of either Party.

Such coordinator/s will be responsible for liaising with the relevant coordinator/s of the other Party with regards to guidelines and instructions relating to the Service Employees and the provision of the Services.

2.5

The Parties shall (and the Supplier shall procure that the Supplier Employers shall) cooperate and assist each other in the identification, investigation and resolution of concerns relating to or arising from workplace discrimination and sexual harassment, as well as compliance with all applicable laws and regulations governing safety and the wellbeing of employees in the workplace, in each case as is reasonably practicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Supplier shall not be responsible for any bonuses to be paid to Service Employees in respect of the 2024 calendar year; rather, such bonuses shall, to the extent payable, be paid to the eligible Service Employees by the Service Recipient in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of such bonuses before March 15, 2025.

3.2

The Service Employees will be supplied to the Service Recipient for the performance of the Services for and on behalf of the Supplier for the duration that the Services are provided pursuant to this Agreement unless the employment of any Service Employee is terminated by the Supplier Employer or by such Service Employee.

If at any time during the engagement of the Service Employees pursuant to this Agreement, Service Employees through performance of the Services first make, create, invent, or discover or participate in making, creating, inventing or discovering Intellectual Property, in which the Supplier or Supplier Employer owns or acquires an interest, the Supplier hereby assigns or shall cause Supplier Employer to assign (including by way of present assignment of all future rights

- 5 -

in the same) to the Service Recipient all of Supplier’s or Supplier Employer’s, as applicable, rights, title and interest in the same.

10.6.2

the relevant Party notifies the Party in Breach in writing of such breach and of the steps required to remedy it; and

10.6.3

the Party in Breach fails to remedy the relevant breach within 30 days.

10.7

Where this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Clause 10.6 by the Supplier, the Supplier Employer shall be entitled to terminate the employment of the Service Employees, and thereupon the Service Recipient will indemnify and keep indemnified, on an after-Tax basis, the Supplier (for itself and on behalf of a Supplier Employer) for all Losses occasioned by it in connection with such termination of employment; provided that in relation to any such termination, Supplier Employer follows any termination process required by applicable law to the extent reasonably practicable.

10.8	Any expiration or termination of this Agreement does not affect any payment or reimbursement obligation hereunder accrued on or before the Termination Date or the indemnification obligations hereunder, which obligations shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

Tax.

11.1

In addition to any fees applicable to the Services or other amounts payable by Service Recipient hereunder, Service Recipient shall pay to Supplier the amount of all applicable sales, use, value-added, goods and services, transfer, receipts, consumption or other similar taxes (such Taxes, but excluding any interest, penalties or additional amounts imposed with respect thereto, “Service Taxes”) that Supplier or any of its affiliates is required to pay that result from any Service delivered hereunder, regardless of whether such Service Taxes are invoiced with the applicable fee payment, payable directly by Service Recipient to a taxing authority, added retroactively or subsequently imposed in connection with any tax claim, assessment or other proceeding. If Supplier or any of its affiliates is legally obligated to collect any Service Taxes from Service Recipient, Supplier shall have full authority to do so. Supplier shall provide Service Recipient with an invoice for the Services that sets forth the amount of Service Taxes that are due, and Service Recipient shall pay the amount of Service Taxes set forth on such invoice to Supplier in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Section 4. Service Recipient shall provide Supplier with such other information as Supplier reasonably requests to determine the amount of any such Service Taxes. If Service Recipient is exempt from any such Service Taxes, Service Recipient shall furnish Supplier with a valid and properly completed resale or exemption certificate as required under applicable law.

11.2

Where, under the terms of this Agreement, one Party (for the purposes of this Clause 11.2 only, the “Payor”) is liable to indemnify or reimburse another Party (for the purposes of this Clause 11.2 only, the “Payee”) in respect of any costs, charges or expenses, the payment made by the Payor shall include an amount equal to any Service Taxes thereon for which the Payee reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment.

- 7 -

11.3	If any deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax is required by law from any payment by the Service Recipient under this Agreement the Service Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such payment to the extent required by applicable law.

11.4

If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any payment by the Service Recipient, then the sum payable by the Service Recipient shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made, the Supplier receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required; provided, however, if the Supplier determines acting reasonably in good faith that it received a refund or obtained and utilised a credit for any Tax deducted or withheld by the Service Recipient, the Supplier shall promptly pay the amount of such refund or the amount of Tax actually saved in consequence of the utilisation of such credit to the Service Recipient. To the extent the Supplier delivers to the Service Recipient such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit any payment to be paid without deduction or withholding or at a reduced rate of deduction or withholding, the Service Recipient will reduce or eliminate such deduction or withholding in accordance with applicable law.

12.	Miscellaneous.

12.1	The Supplier, the Supplier Employers and the Service Recipient may enforce the terms of this Agreement. No other party (including for the avoidance of doubt the Service Employees) may enforce the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.3 Limitation to Services. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Services are intended only to be transitional in nature and shall be furnished by Provider only during the Transition Period and solely for the purpose of accommodating Recipient in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the exhibits attached to this Agreement, Provider shall have no obligation under this Agreement to (i) provide Services to any Person other than Recipient and its Affiliates, (ii) engage in any unlawful activity, (iii) provide Services that would reasonably be expected to result in a violation of any applicable law or regulation, (iv) disclose any information that would be reasonably likely to result in the loss of attorney-client privilege or similar privilege (provided that Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to make substitute disclosure arrangements that would not result in the loss of such privilege), (v) implement systems, processes, technologies, plans or initiatives developed, acquired or utilized by Provider or its Affiliates after the Effective Date, if such systems, processes, technologies, plans or initiatives were not utilized by Provider or its Affiliates during the six (6) month period immediately prior to the Effective Date (such period, the “Reference Period”), or (vi) subject to the provisions of Section 2.5, provide a Service when Consent from a Third Party Provider has not been obtained.

prior to committing to pay any such fee or increase and upon Recipient’s request, Provider will cooperate in good faith with Recipient to (i) negotiate with the Third Party Provider to minimize any such fee or increase and to arrange reasonable terms for such fee or increase in order to obtain the Consent and provide the applicable Services and/or (ii) to identify, and if commercially feasible, to implement, a work-around or other alternative arrangement for any affected Service, provided that (i) Provider shall not be required to relinquish or forbear any rights in connection with obtaining any Consents; and (ii) Recipient acknowledges that any such work-around or alternative arrangement may adversely impact the standards for provision of such Service set forth in this Agreement, and Provider shall not be liable for any breach of such applicable service standards set forth in this Agreement that results from the adoption of any such work-around or alternative arrangement. Any fees or increases in fees that become payable to a Third Party Provider as set forth in this Section 2.5 will be treated as Out-of-Pocket Charges subject to the provisions of Section 13.2. This Section 2.5 shall apply mutatis mutandis where a Service in whole or in part is provided by a Third Party Provider and Provider’s contract with such Third Party Provider expires or terminates any time after the Effective Date for any reason other than Provider’s breach.

Section 2.7 Services Performed by Affiliates and Third Parties. Provider shall have the right to perform the Services itself or through any Affiliate or through any Third Party Provider at no additional cost to Recipient, without the prior written consent of Recipient. Provider shall in all cases remain responsible for (i) the provision of the applicable Services to Recipient in accordance with the Services Standard, (ii) the performance by any Third Party Provider of any delegated Services, and (iii) any actions of any Third Party Provider providing such delegated Services, including any breach of the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing in this Section 2.7, in the event of any reduction in the standard of performance of, or other adverse incident relating to the Services (or part thereof) provided or supported by Third Party Providers, that comes to the attention of Provider (including where Provider has been notified by Recipient of such reduction in the standard of performance or other adverse incident), Provider shall: (x) promptly notify Recipient of the same; (y) to the extent available, provide Recipient with all information reasonably requested in order to evaluate the issue or incident; and (z) use commercially reasonable efforts (in consultation with Recipient) to promptly remediate the issue or incident with the relevant Third Party Provider.

Section 2.8 Other Services.

(a) Commencing on the Effective Date and for six (6) months thereafter, the Recipient may identify any service (the “Excluded Services”), that: (i) had been provided prior to the Effective Date; or (ii) that, due to the separation of the Business from the business of Provider, is reasonably necessary to continue to conduct the Business in substantially the manner as the Business was conducted, in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), during the Reference Period, but that is not included as a Service set forth this Agreement, including in accordance with Section 2.2 (each such service, an “Omitted Service”).

Section 2.9 Services Standard. Recipient acknowledges that Provider is not in the business of providing services to third parties and is entering into this Agreement only for the purpose of facilitating the transactions described in the Merger Agreement. Provider shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, perform the Services in substantially the same manner and at substantially the same level of service (including, as applicable, with respect to type, frequency, quality, quantity, priority, timeliness and geographic scope) as compared with the manner in which such Services were provided to the Business at Closing and with substantially the same degree of skill, care and diligence as provided by Provider at Closing (the “Services Standard”). Recipient acknowledges that the timely completion of any Service by Provider or its Affiliates may depend upon the provision of information, documentation, products and/or services by Recipient or its Affiliates, and that Provider shall not be responsible for the failure to provide such Service to the extent that such failure results from the failure of Recipient or its Affiliates to provide such information, documentation, products and/or services to Provider or its Affiliates. Under no circumstances shall Provider, its Affiliates or its or their respective employees or agents (including subcontractors) be held accountable to a greater standard of care, efforts or skill than the Services Standard. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Services do not include the exercise of business judgment or general management for Recipient or any of its Affiliates. Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that the Services Standard may change from time to time pursuant to

Section 18.6. Without limiting any relevant Services Standard: (i) Provider will provide to Recipient reasonable advance notice of any potential interruption, scheduled or unscheduled, that is reasonably likely to interrupt or otherwise affect any Service to be provided by Provider hereunder; and (ii) Recipient will not be obligated to pay any Fees with respect to any period that the Services are interrupted or not provided.

(ii) the date, if any, on which Recipient is obliged to cease occupation of the Licensed Facility pursuant to Section 2.10(d); and

(iii) the date of expiration or any other earlier termination of the relevant lease or sublease pursuant to which Provider Tenant leases or subleases the relevant Licensed Facility.

Notwithstanding Article 11, any change to Service Fees may only be made pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement in accordance with Section 18.2. Recipient shall pay Service Fees and Out-of-Pocket Charges in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Section 13.3.

Section 13.3 Payment Terms. Where Provider issues an undisputed invoice to Recipient, the Service Fees shall be paid monthly in arrears in U.K. pounds (£). Where Provider designates one of its Affiliates to invoice Recipient for any of the Service Fees, Recipient shall, and Provider shall ensure that such Affiliate shall, comply with Exhibit C and, once a Sub-Services Agreement has been entered into, Provider shall no longer invoice Recipient for Service Costs invoiced by any of its Affiliates under any Sub-Services Agreement. Where a Sub-Services Agreement is in place, Service Fees shall be paid monthly in arrears in U.K. pounds (£). To the extent that Service Fees payable with respect to a Sub-Services Agreement are subject to special conditions specified in the relevant Sub-Services Agreement as necessary to comply with or address local law requirements, including with regard to tax treatment, the Affiliate of Provider that is party to such Sub-Services Agreement shall be solely responsible for any additional costs or expenses incurred by such Affiliate or Recipient in order to comply with such special conditions, subject to compliance with Section 13.4. Each invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the Service Fee pursuant to Section 13.1 and out-of-pocket charges and costs pursuant to Section 13.2 with respect to the applicable month or as otherwise agreed by the Parties, and shall be delivered within thirty (30) days after the end of each applicable month or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. Recipient shall pay Provider or its designated Affiliate, as the case may be, all amounts set forth on such invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice, or such other time period as may be agreed by Recipient and Provider or the applicable Affiliate of Provider. All such invoices shall be delivered to Recipient at Recipient’s address as set forth in Section 18.1 or as Recipient shall later designate by written notice to Provider. Any payments concerning such invoices shall be made to Provider or its designated Affiliate by wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more accounts specified by Provider or its designated Affiliate. Provider or its designated Affiliate shall have the right to assess interest at an annual rate equal to the prime lending rate as publishing in The Wall Street Journal plus two percentage points for any month in which a balance is past due against all past due amounts or such other rate as may be set out in a Sub-Services Agreement, but not to exceed the maximum interest charges permitted by Law.

Section 13.4 Reserved.

Section 13.5 Taxes. In addition to any fees applicable to the Services or other amounts payable by Recipient hereunder, Recipient shall pay to Provider the amount of all applicable sales, use, value-added, goods and services, transfer, receipts, consumption or other similar taxes (such Taxes, but excluding any interest, penalties or amounts imposed with respect thereto, “Service Taxes”) that Provider or any of its Affiliates is in the future required to pay that result from any Service delivered hereunder, regardless of whether such Service Taxes are invoiced with the applicable fee payment, payable directly by Recipient to a taxing authority, added retroactively or subsequently imposed in connection with any tax claim, assessment or other proceeding. If Provider or any of its Affiliates is legally obligated to collect any Service Taxes from Recipient, Provider shall have full authority to do so. Provider shall provide Recipient with an invoice for the Services that sets forth the amount of Service Taxes that are due, and Recipient shall pay the amount of Service Taxes set forth on such invoice to Provider in accordance with the payment terms set forth in Section 13.3. Recipient shall provide Provider with such other information as Provider reasonably requests to determine the amount of any such Service Taxes. If Recipient is exempt from any such Service Taxes, Recipient shall furnish Provider with a valid and properly completed resale or exemption certificate as required under applicable Law. If any deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax is required by Law from any payment by Recipient under this Agreement, Recipient shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such payment to the extent required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any payment by Recipient, then the sum payable by Recipient shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made, Provider receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required; provided, however, if the Provider determines acting reasonably in good faith that it received a refund or obtained and utilised a credit for any Tax deducted or withheld by the Recipient, the Provider shall promptly pay the amount of such refund or the amount of Tax actually saved in consequence of the utilisation of such credit to the Recipient. To the extent Provider delivers to Recipient such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit any payment to be paid without deduction or withholding or at a reduced rate of deduction or withholding, Recipient will reduce or eliminate such deduction or withholding in accordance with applicable Law.

Service of process, summons, notice or document to any Party’s address and in the manner set forth in Section 18.1 shall be effective service of process for any such action, it being acknowledged and agreed that the foregoing shall not limit the right of a Party to effect service of process on any other Party by any other legally available method. Provider (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) further irrevocably consents to process being served on it in any action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof in the manner for delivery of notices specified in Section 18.1 to Informa USA, Inc. (“Process Agent”) with an address on the date hereof of 605 3rd Avenue, 22nd Floor, New York, New York 10158, Attention: Legal, as such Person’s agent for the purpose of accepting service of any process in the United States.

RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (II) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (III) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (IV) EACH SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 18.10.

Section 18.11 No Joint Venture. Nothing in this Agreement creates a joint venture or partnership between the Parties. This Agreement does not authorize any Party (i) to bind or commit, or to act as an agent, employee or legal representative of, the other Party, except as may be specifically set forth in other provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) to have the power to control the activities and operations of the other Party in violation of applicable Law. The Parties are independent contractors with respect to each other under this Agreement. Subject to its obligations hereunder, Provider shall use its sole discretion and shall have complete control over the work performed pursuant to this Agreement, its employees, and other details of performing its obligations hereunder. Each Party agrees not to hold itself out as having any authority or relationship contrary to this Section 18.11.

Section 18.12 Counterparts. The Parties may execute this Agreement in multiple counterparts, each of which constitutes an original as against the Party that signed it, and all of which together constitute one agreement. This Agreement is effective upon delivery of one executed counterpart from each Party to the other Party. The signatures of both Parties need not appear on the same counterpart. The execution of counterparts by electronic signature or delivery of duly executed counterparts by electronic transmission is as effective as signing and delivering the counterpart in person.

Section 18.13 Force Majeure. No Party hereto shall be liable to another for its failure to perform hereunder caused by contingencies beyond its reasonable control (“Force Majeure”), including acts of God, fire, flood, wars, acts of terrorism, sabotage, strike and government actions. Any Party asserting its inability to perform any obligation hereunder for any such contingency shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of any such contingency and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recommence its performance of such obligation as soon as commercially practicable. Neither Party shall be relieved of its obligations pursuant to this Section 18.13 to the extent it does not use commercially reasonable efforts to recommence performance of its obligations or otherwise to remedy the event of Force Majeure.
