(iv) not to renew or extend the term of, increase any of its obligations under or directly or indirectly assign, convey or transfer to a third Person (in whole or in part, including any transfer or assignment by operation of law or through any sale, merger or other disposition of equity interests) to a third Person (other than as contemplated hereby or in any Ancillary Agreement) or otherwise amend, modify or waive any rights or obligations under, any Contract constituting a Delayed Asset or any Liabilities thereunder which constitute Delayed Liabilities, other than at the written request or with the prior written consent of the Receiving Party; provided that, with respect to any Specified Contract, SpinCo shall not be permitted to direct Parent to take any action that SpinCo is prohibited from taking under Section 3.01(c)(iii).

(g) To the extent monies are received or paid by the Transferring Party with respect to any of the Delayed Assets or Delayed Liabilities, the Transferring Party shall (i) receive or pay such monies for the sole benefit of the Receiving Party, (ii) transmit to the Receiving Party all such monies received by it as promptly as practicable following receipt thereof and (iii) be compensated by the Receiving Party for all such monies paid by it, in each case of (i) and (ii), net of the Transferring Party’s expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing; provided, that Parent may elect to have the obligations under this Section 2.01(g) satisfied through aggregated settlement or set-off payments between Parent and SpinCo or the members of their respective Groups.

(h) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (in each case except with respect to Shared Contracts, which are governed solely by Section 2.04, or the fee interests (or local equivalent), leasehold interests, subleasehold interests or other real property interests under the Real Estate Separation Documents, which are governed solely by the REMA, or Credit Support Instruments, which are governed solely by Article III), the Parties agree with respect to any Delayed Asset that, unless otherwise agreed to by the Transferring Party and the Receiving Party, upon written notice (together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Transferring Party) by the Receiving Party to the Transferring Party or by the Transferring Party to the Receiving Party, as applicable, that any applicable Transfer Limitations have been satisfied, such Delayed Asset shall automatically be deemed sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred and delivered by the Transferring Party to the Receiving Party without further consideration as of the Distribution Date or such earlier date on which the benefits of such Delayed Asset were intended to be transferred. If an automatic sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer or delivery may not be effected under applicable Law, each of the Transferring Party and Receiving Party shall as soon as practicable take all such actions as are required to effect such assignment, conveyance, transfer or delivery of such Delayed Asset to the Receiving Party, for no consideration and subject to Section 2.05.

(i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (in each case except with respect to Shared Contracts, which are governed solely by Section 2.04, or the fee interests (or local equivalent), leasehold interests, subleasehold interests or other real property interests under the Real Estate Separation Documents, which are governed solely by the REMA, or Credit Support Instruments, which are governed solely by Article III), the Parties agree with

23

respect to a Delayed Liability that, unless otherwise agreed to by the Transferring Party and the Receiving Party, upon written notice (together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Transferring Party) by the Receiving Party to the Transferring Party or by the Transferring Party to the Receiving Party, as applicable, that the applicable Transfer Limitations have been satisfied, such Delayed Liability shall automatically be deemed assumed by the Receiving Party as of the Distribution Date or such earlier date on which the burdens of such Delayed Liability were intended to be assumed by the Receiving Party, and the Receiving Party shall automatically assume, accept, undertake and agree to pay, satisfy, perform and discharge such Delayed Liability without further consideration. If the automatic assumption of the Delayed Liability upon satisfaction of the applicable Transfer Limitations may not be effected under applicable Law, each of the Transferring Party and Receiving Party shall as soon as practicable take all such actions as are required to effect such assumption of such Delayed Liability by the Receiving Party, for no consideration and subject to Section 2.05.

(j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 2.01(m), Section 2.01(n) and Article III, neither Party nor their respective Groups shall be required to contribute capital, pay or grant any consideration or concession in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person in order to cause any Transfer Limitation to be satisfied (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and expenses and recording or similar fees of a third-party counterparty that are incurred in connection with satisfying the applicable Transfer Limitation, in each case, if requested by such counterparty); provided, that each Party shall be responsible for its own reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses and the Receiving Party entitled to such Asset or required to assume such Liability, as applicable, shall be responsible for recording or similar fees.

(k) Any transfer, conveyance, acceptance or assumption made pursuant to Section 2.01(h) or Section 2.01(i) shall be treated by the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement as if it had occurred as of the Distribution or such earlier effective date as provided in an applicable Local Transfer Agreement, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law.

(l) Without limiting any other provision hereof, each of Parent and SpinCo will take, and will cause each member of its Group to take, such actions as are reasonably necessary to consummate or evidence the Restructuring (whether prior to, at or after the Distribution, as applicable). The Parties agree that the manner in which the Restructuring has been or will be implemented is solely at the discretion of Parent.

(m) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 2.01(n) and Article III, in the event that Parent determines for the parties to seek a novation or assignment and release with respect to any SpinCo Liability, SpinCo shall, and shall cause the other members of the SpinCo Group to, use reasonable best efforts and cooperate with Parent and the other members of the Parent Group to cause such novation or assignment and release to be obtained (including, where necessary, entering into appropriate instruments of assumption subject to the last sentence of Section 2.05 and, where necessary, SpinCo providing, or causing its Subsidiaries to provide, guarantees in support of the obligations of other members of the SpinCo Group) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to SpinCo, and to have Parent

24

and the members of the Parent Group fully released from all Liabilities to third parties and, in the event SpinCo determines for the parties to seek a novation or assignment and release with respect to any Parent Liability, Parent shall, and shall cause the other members of the Parent Group to, use reasonable best efforts and cooperate with SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group to cause such novation or assignment and release to be obtained (including, where necessary, entering into appropriate instruments of assumption subject to the last sentence of Section 2.05 and, where necessary, Parent providing, or causing its Subsidiaries to provide, guarantees in support of the obligations of other members of the Parent Group) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, and to have SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group fully released from all Liabilities to third parties; provided, that, neither Party nor any member of its Group shall be required to contribute capital, pay or grant any consideration or concession in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation, except as provided in this Section 2.01(m)) to any Person in order to cause such novation or assignment and release to be obtained (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and expenses and recording or similar fees of a third-party counterparty that are incurred in connection with the applicable novation or assignment and release, in each case, if requested by such counterparty); provided, that each Party shall be responsible for its own reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses and the member of the Party’s Group entitled to such Asset or intended to assume such Liability shall be responsible for recording or similar fees.

(n) Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.01(m), SpinCo shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain from the counterparties to the Contracts listed or described on Section 2.01(n) of the Disclosure Letter (the “Specified Contracts”), as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event within the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period and in the manner set forth on Section 2.01(n) of the Disclosure Letter, full written releases providing that each member of the Parent Group obligated or liable, directly or indirectly, for any obligations or other Liabilities to any counterparty in connection with such Specified Contract, is irrevocably and unconditionally released, absolved and forever discharged from any and all obligations and other Liabilities with respect to such Specified Contracts. Such releases shall, in each case, be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any release from a Specified Contract pursuant to this Section 2.01(n) has not been obtained, in each case during the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, SpinCo shall continue to use reasonable best efforts to arrange, at its sole cost and expense and effective as soon as practicable thereafter, such release with respect to such Specified Contract, as contemplated by this Section 2.01(n).

(o) The Parties shall take the actions set forth on Section 2.01(o) of the Disclosure Letter.

Section 2.02 Certain Matters Governed Exclusively by Ancillary Agreements. Each of Parent and SpinCo agrees on behalf of itself and the members of its Group that, except as explicitly provided in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement, the HealthCare SDA or the HealthCare Ancillary Agreements (including clause (a) of the definition of SpinCo Assets and clause (a) of the definition of SpinCo Liabilities, in each case in this Agreement and in the HealthCare SDA), (a) the TMA and the HealthCare TMA Assignment Agreement shall exclusively govern all matters relating to Taxes between such parties (except to the extent that

25

tax matters relating to employees and employee benefits-related matters are addressed in the EMA), (b) the EMA shall exclusively govern the allocation of employees and of Assets and Liabilities related to employee and employee compensation and benefits-related matters, including the outstanding awards (equity-and cash-based) under existing equity plans with respect to employees and former employees of members of both the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group (except to the extent that employee compensation and benefits-related reimbursements are addressed in the TSA), (c) the IPMA and any Intellectual Property assignment agreements entered into pursuant thereto shall exclusively govern the recordation of the transfers of any registrations or applications of Parent IP Assets and SpinCo IP Assets that is allocated hereunder, as applicable, (d) the IPCLA and any other Ancillary Agreements containing provisions addressing the use or licensing of Intellectual Property or Technology shall exclusively govern the use and licensing of certain Intellectual Property or Technology identified therein between members of the Parent Group and members of the SpinCo Group, (e) the TMLA and certain other Ancillary Agreements shall exclusively govern all matters relating to the use and licensing of certain trademarks identified therein between members of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group, (f) the TSA and the GRC TSA shall exclusively govern all matters relating to the provision of certain services identified therein to be provided by each Party to the other on a transitional basis following the Distribution and (g) the REMA shall exclusively govern all matters relating to the Real Estate Separation Documents, including the allocation and transfer of interests in real property. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence in respect of matters governed exclusively by the Ancillary Agreements, in the event and to the extent that there shall be a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Ancillary Agreement, the HealthCare SDA, the HealthCare TMA Assignment Agreement or the HealthCare Ancillary Agreements, the provisions of this Agreement shall control (unless this Agreement or the applicable Ancillary Agreement explicitly provides otherwise in respect of such conflict).

Section 2.03 Termination of Agreements.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 2.03(b) or Section 2.03(c), in furtherance of the releases and other provisions of Section 6.01, effective as of the Distribution, the Parties agree that any and all Contracts, arrangements, commitments and understandings, oral or written, between a member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and a member of the SpinCo Group, on the other hand, that is in existence as of the Distribution Date (“Intercompany Agreements”), including all intercompany accounts payable or accounts receivable in effect or accrued thereunder as of the Distribution Date (“Intercompany Accounts”), shall be deemed terminated; provided, however, that if more than one member of any Party’s Group is party to an Intercompany Agreement, such Intercompany Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as between the members of such Group and shall be terminated only as between such Group members that are party thereto, on the one hand, and the members of the other Party’s Group that are party thereto, on the other hand. No such terminated Intercompany Agreement or Intercompany Account (including any provision thereof that purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Distribution Date. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of the other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing. The Parties, on behalf of the members of their respective Groups, hereby waive any advance notice provision or other termination requirements or conditions with respect to any Intercompany Agreement.

26

(b) The provisions of Section 2.03(a) and Section 2.03(c) shall not apply to any of the following Intercompany Agreements or Intercompany Accounts (or to any of the provisions thereof): (i) this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (and each other Intercompany Agreement or Intercompany Account contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be entered into by either Party or any other member of its Group, including any Real Estate Separation Document and any Local Transfer Agreement, or created by any Ancillary Agreement); (ii) any Intercompany Agreements to which any third party is a party, including any Shared Contracts; (iii) any other Intercompany Agreements or Intercompany Accounts created by any Ancillary Agreement or that this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or such Intercompany Agreement expressly contemplates will survive the Distribution Date; (iv) any Intercompany Agreement entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for the purpose of surviving the Distribution and governing commercial matters between Parent Group and the SpinCo Group following the Distribution; and (v) those Intercompany Agreements and Intercompany Accounts set forth on Section 2.03(b) of the Disclosure Letter.

(c) In connection with the termination of Intercompany Accounts described in Section 2.03(a), each of Parent and SpinCo shall cause each Intercompany Account between a member of the SpinCo Group, on the one hand, and a member of the Parent Group, on the other hand, outstanding as of the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the date of the Distribution to be settled in the manner provided on Section 2.03(c) of the Disclosure Letter.

(d)

(i) Parent and SpinCo agree to take, or cause the respective members of their respective Groups to take, prior to the Distribution (or as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter), all actions necessary to amend all contracts or agreements governing (x) the Parent Accounts so that such Parent Accounts, if linked (whether by automatic withdrawal, automatic deposit or any other authorization to transfer funds from or to, hereinafter “linked”) to any SpinCo Account, are de-linked from such SpinCo Accounts and (y) the SpinCo Accounts so that such SpinCo Accounts, if linked to any Parent Account, are de-linked from such Parent Accounts.

(ii) With respect to any outstanding checks issued by, or payments made by, Parent, SpinCo or any of their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Distribution, such outstanding checks shall be honored from and after the Distribution by the Person or Group owning the account on which the check is drawn, without limiting the ultimate allocation of Liability for such amounts under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(iii) Except to the extent prohibited by applicable Law or a Final Determination and except as set forth in Section 2.01, the Parties contemplate that, from time to time after the date hereof, a member of the Parent Group or of the SpinCo Group, as applicable (any such party, the “Paying Party”), as a convenience to a member of the SpinCo Group or of the Parent Group, as applicable (the “Responsible Party”), or inadvertently, may make certain payments that are properly the responsibility of the Responsible Party (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) (any such payment

27

made, a “Disbursement,” and the underlying invoice or similar documentation evidencing such obligation, a “Disbursement Invoice”). Similarly, from time to time after the date hereof, a member of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group, as applicable (any such party, the “Collecting Party”), may receive from third parties certain payments to which a member of the SpinCo Group or of the Parent Group, as applicable, is entitled, including payments made inadvertently (any such party, the “Receiving Party”, and any such payment received, a “Receipt”). Accordingly, with respect to Disbursements and Receipts, the Parties agree as follows:

(1) Disbursements. The Responsible Party shall pay to the Paying Party an amount equal to the amount of such Disbursement, plus any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Paying Party related to the processing and payment of such Disbursement (including any bank charges), all of which shall be invoiced or, if applicable, settled in accordance with Section 11.06 of the Disclosure Letter, except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.03(d)(iii) (including with respect to the time periods specified herein). A Paying Party shall provide such Disbursement Invoices for which it is seeking reimbursement as the Responsible Party may reasonably request.

(2) Receipts. A Collecting Party shall remit Receipts monthly in arrears to the Receiving Party in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Receipts minus any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Collecting Party related to the collection and processing of such Receipts (including any bank charges), all of which shall be paid in accordance with Section 11.06 of the Disclosure Letter (or deducted from any amount to be reimbursed to the Collecting Party at such time under this Section 2.03(d)(iii), if applicable), except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.03(d)(iii) (including with respect to the time periods specified herein).

(3) Certain Exceptions. If, with respect to any particular transaction(s), it is impracticable under the circumstances to comply with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.03(d)(iii) (including the time periods specified herein), the Parties shall cooperate to find a mutually agreeable alternative that shall achieve substantially similar economic results, including the paying of interest at an interest rate equal to the prime rate published in the eastern edition of The Wall Street Journal or a comparable newspaper if The Wall Street Journal shall cease publishing the prime rate on the date or the closest preceding date to the date such payment was due to the Paying Party or the Receiving Party, as applicable, for the period of time starting on the date such payment was due and ending on the date such payment is made such that the Paying Party shall not incur any material interest expense or the Receiving Party shall not be deprived of any material interest income; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.06 of the Disclosure Letter, if a Collecting Party cannot comply with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(d)(iii)(2) because it does not become aware of a Receipt on behalf of the Receiving Party in time (e.g., because of the commingling of funds in an account), such Collecting Party shall remit such Receipt without interest thereon to the Receiving Party within ten (10) business days after it becomes aware of such Receipt.

28

(e) Each of Parent and SpinCo shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, take all necessary actions to remove each of SpinCo and SpinCo’s Subsidiaries from all Cash Management Arrangements to which it is a party, in each case prior to the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the Distribution Date.

(f) The Parties shall take the actions set forth on Section 2.03(f) of the Disclosure Letter.

Section 2.04 Shared Contracts.

(a) Except as set forth on Section 2.04 of the Disclosure Letter and subject to Article III, the Parties shall, and shall cause the members of their respective Groups to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to work together in an effort to divide, partially assign, modify or replicate (in whole or in part) the respective rights and obligations under and in respect of any Shared Contract, such that (i) a member of the SpinCo Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the SpinCo Business (the “SpinCo Portion”), which rights shall be a SpinCo Asset and which obligations shall be a SpinCo Liability, and (ii) a member of the Parent Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to such Shared Contract not relating to the SpinCo Business (the “Parent Portion”), which rights shall be a Parent Asset and which obligations shall be a Parent Liability. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the division, partial assignment, modification or replication of a Shared Contract unless and until any necessary Consents are obtained or made, as applicable. If the Parties, or their respective Group members, as applicable, are not able to enter into an arrangement to formally divide, partially assign, modify or replicate such Shared Contract prior to the Distribution as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.04, then the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Group members to, cooperate in any reasonable and permissible arrangement as determined by Parent to provide that, following the Distribution, a member of the SpinCo Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the SpinCo Portion under such Shared Contract and a member of the Parent Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the Parent Portion under such Shared Contract, it being understood that no Party shall have Liability to the other Party for the failure of any third party to perform its obligations under any such Shared Contract.

(b) Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall require either Party or any member of its Group to contribute capital, pay or grant any consideration or concession in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person (other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, attorneys’ fees and expenses and recording or similar fees of a third-party counterparty to a Shared Contract that are incurred in connection with the applicable division, partial assignment, modification or replication of such Shared Contract, in each case, if requested by such counterparty); provided, that each Party shall be responsible for its own reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses and the member of the Party’s Group entitled to such Asset or intended to assume such Liability shall be responsible for recording or similar fees. For the avoidance of doubt, reasonable out-of- pocket expenses and recording or similar fees shall not include any purchase price, license fee, or other payment or compensation for the procurement of any asset secured to replace an Asset in the course of a Party’s obligation under Section 2.04(a).

29

Section 2.05 Disclaimer of Representations and Warranties. Each of Parent (on behalf of itself and each other member of the Parent Group) and SpinCo (on behalf of itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group) understands and agrees that, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the Representation Letters, no party to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement or document contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is representing or warranting in any way as to any Assets or Liabilities transferred or assumed as contemplated hereby or thereby, as to the sufficiency of the Assets or Liabilities transferred, conveyed, accepted or assumed hereby or thereby for the conduct and operations of the SpinCo Business or the Parent Business, as applicable, as to any notices, Governmental Approvals or other Consents required in connection therewith or in connection with any past transfers of the Assets or assumptions of the Liabilities, as to the value or freedom from any Security Interests of, or any other matter concerning, any Assets or Liabilities of such party, or as to the absence of any defenses or rights of set-off or freedom from counterclaim with respect to any claim or other Asset, including any accounts receivable, of any such party, or as to the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered hereunder to convey title to any Asset or thing of value upon the execution, delivery and filing hereof or thereof, and each of Parent (on behalf of itself and each other member of the Parent Group) and SpinCo (on behalf of itself and each other member of the SpinCo Group) has relied only on the representations and warranties expressly contained in Section 11.01(c), in any Ancillary Agreement or the Representation Letters. Except as may expressly be set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, any such Assets are being transferred on an “as is,” “where is,” “with all faults” basis and the respective transferees shall bear the economic and legal risks that (a) any conveyance shall prove to be insufficient to vest in the transferee good and marketable title, free and clear of any Security Interest and (b) any necessary notices, Governmental Approvals or other Consents are not delivered or obtained, as applicable, or that any requirements of Laws or judgments are not complied with. To the extent any Local Transfer Agreement or any instrument, assignment, document or agreement described in Section 2.01 includes representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities or other provisions inconsistent with the purpose of this Section 2.05, each of SpinCo, on behalf of itself and the SpinCo Group, and Parent, on behalf of itself and the Parent Group, hereby waives and agrees not to enforce such provisions.

Section 2.06 Waiver of Bulk-Sale and Bulk-Transfer Laws. SpinCo hereby waives compliance by each and every member of the Parent Group with the requirements and provisions of any “bulk-sale” or “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the transfer or sale of any or all of the SpinCo Assets to any member of the SpinCo Group. Parent hereby waives compliance by each and every member of the SpinCo Group with the requirements and provisions of any “bulk-sale” or “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the transfer or sale of any or all of the Parent Assets to any member of the Parent Group.

30

Section 2.07 Rights, Interests and Obligations Under the HealthCare SDA and HealthCare Ancillary Agreements. Effective as of the Distribution, each of Parent and SpinCo shall be entitled to exercise rights and interests of Parent, and shall be required to perform obligations of Parent, under the HealthCare SDA and the HealthCare Ancillary Agreements, including rights, interests and obligations that provide for indemnification, information-sharing or other cooperation from and to the HealthCare SpinCo Group pursuant to ARTICLE VI (Mutual Releases; Indemnification), ARTICLE VII (Access to Information; Privilege; Confidentiality) and ARTICLE VIII (Insurance) of the HealthCare SDA, in each case, to the extent necessary for Parent to exercise rights or undertake obligations thereunder with respect to “Parent Assets” and “Parent Liabilities” (in each case, as defined in the HealthCare SDA) that relate to the Parent Business and SpinCo to exercise rights or undertake obligations thereunder with respect to “Parent Assets” and “Parent Liabilities” (in each case, as defined in the HealthCare SDA) that relate to the SpinCo Business, as applicable. It is the intention of the Parties that the foregoing allocation of rights, interests and obligations replicates to the greatest extent feasible the effect as if the Healthcare SDA and the HealthCare Ancillary Agreements were replicated into one set of agreements governing the relationship between the Parent Group and the Healthcare SpinCo Group and a separate set of agreements governing the relationship between the SpinCo Group and the Healthcare SpinCo Group.

ARTICLE III

CREDIT SUPPORT

Section 3.01 Replacement of Parent Credit Support.

(a) SpinCo shall use reasonable best efforts to arrange, at its sole cost and expense and effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event within six (6) months from the Distribution Date (the “Initial Credit Support Replacement Period”), the termination or replacement of all guarantees, bank provided guarantees, covenants, indemnities, surety bonds, letters of credit or similar assurances of credit support (“Credit Support Instruments”) provided by, through or on behalf of any member of the Parent Group for the benefit of any member of the SpinCo Group or providing credit support for any SpinCo Contract (“Parent Credit Support Instruments”), including the Parent Credit Support Instruments listed or described on Section 3.01(a) of the Disclosure Letter, with alternative arrangements that do not require any Credit Support Instruments or other credit support from any member of the Parent Group. SpinCo shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain from the beneficiaries of such Credit Support Instruments, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event within the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, full written releases providing that such member of the Parent Group, as well as all related members of the Parent Group obligated or liable, directly or indirectly, for any obligations or other Liabilities to any counterparty in connection with such Parent Credit Support Instruments, is irrevocably and unconditionally released, absolved and forever discharged from any and all obligations and other Liabilities with respect to such Parent Credit Support Instruments. Such alternative arrangements and releases shall, in each case, be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Parent Credit Support Instrument has not been terminated or replaced, or if a release from such Parent Credit Support Instrument in accordance with this Section 3.01(a) has not been obtained, in each case during the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, SpinCo shall continue to use reasonable best efforts to arrange, at its sole cost and expense and effective as soon as practicable thereafter, the termination, replacement or assumption (in each case, with full written releases) of such Parent Credit Support Instruments.

31

(b) In furtherance (and not in limitation) of Section 3.01(a), to the extent appropriate, advisable or required to obtain the termination or replacement of, and full written release from, a Parent Credit Support Instrument in accordance with Section 3.01(a), SpinCo shall, or shall cause the appropriate creditworthy members of the SpinCo Group to, execute an agreement substantially in the form of, and containing, representations, covenants and other terms or provisions which are as close as possible to those contained in, such existing Parent Credit Support Instrument, or such other form as the applicable counterparty shall reasonably require, except SpinCo or such other member(s) of the SpinCo Group shall not be required to agree to any representations, covenants or other terms or provisions to the extent that (i) SpinCo or such other applicable member(s) of the SpinCo Group would be reasonably unable to comply therewith or (ii) such representations, covenants or other terms or provisions would be reasonably expected to be breached by SpinCo or any such other member(s) of the SpinCo Group despite SpinCo or such SpinCo Group member(s)’ good faith efforts to comply; it being understood that in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), SpinCo or such other member(s) of the SpinCo Group shall be required to offer and agree to such alternative provisions as the applicable counterparty shall reasonably require in order to avoid any outcome where such member(s) of the SpinCo Group would be unable to comply or expected to breach, as applicable.

(c) For any Parent Credit Support Instrument that has not been terminated or replaced, or for which full written releases from such Parent Credit Support Instrument in accordance with Section 3.01(a) and Section 3.01(b) have not been obtained (any such Parent Credit Support Instrument, as of any time of determination from and after the Distribution Date, a “Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument”), and for any Specified Contract for which a full written release pursuant to Section 2.01(n) has not been obtained (any such Specified Contract, as of any time of determination from and after the Distribution Date, a “Remaining Specified Contract”), in each case except to the extent otherwise agreed in writing by Parent:

(i) without limiting SpinCo’s obligations under Article VI, SpinCo shall, from and after the Distribution, to the extent that Parent has determined that such amounts are payable hereunder, (x) pay directly to the guarantor, obligor or surety issuing such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument any and all Liabilities incurred in connection with such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days following receipt by a member of the Parent Group of a written demand in respect of such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument), (y) where a member of the Parent Group is required to pay such Liabilities directly to the counterparty, advance such amounts to Parent (or, at Parent’s election, another member of the Parent Group) prior to such member of the Parent Group’s requirement to pay, as reasonably determined by Parent, and (z) indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the Parent Group against, and reimburse such member of the Parent Group for, all Liabilities, fees, costs and any other amounts paid by such member of the Parent Group in connection with such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument, including any premiums due under such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument and any amounts such member of the Parent Group is obligated to pay the guarantor, obligor or surety issuing such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument whether or not such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument is drawn upon or required to be performed;

32

(ii) with respect to any such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument that is in the form of a letter of credit, surety bond or bank guarantee, SpinCo shall, from and after January 1, 2025 and to the extent requested by Parent in writing, provide the applicable member(s) of the Parent Group with letters of credit, surety bonds or bank guarantees, in each case issued by a bank or other financial institution, in each case reasonably acceptable to Parent, against all losses arising from such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent;

for which Parent or any member of the Parent Group is or may be obligated or liable under any Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument or arising with respect to the applicable Remaining Specified Contract and (y) maintain the financial and operational capability and resources necessary and appropriate to comply with all such obligations and satisfy all such Liabilities, in each case in all material respects;

(v) SpinCo shall, and shall cause the applicable member(s) of the SpinCo Group to, at all times from and after the Distribution Date until the date on which the aggregate outstanding amount of the obligations and other Liabilities underlying such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and arising under Remaining Specified Contracts, in each case calculated in accordance with the methodology set forth on Section 3.01(c)(vi) of the Disclosure Letter, is less than the applicable amount set forth on Section 3.01(c)(v) of the Disclosure Letter, comply with (and take no action that could reasonably be expected to result in non-compliance with) each SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant while each such SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant is in effect, in each case giving effect to any waiver of such SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant granted pursuant to the applicable SpinCo Senior Credit Facility; provided, that for purposes of this Section 3.01(c)(v), (x) each SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant shall be deemed to remain in effect for a period of three (3) months after each such SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant is terminated and (y) if any SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant is amended or otherwise modified to eliminate or otherwise reduce any obligation of SpinCo, SpinCo’s obligations with respect to such SpinCo Senior Credit Facility Financial Covenant shall continue for a period of three (3) months after such amendment or modification both (A) as if such modification or amendment had not occurred and (B) giving effect to such amendment or modification; and

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.01, the Parent Credit Support Instruments listed on Section 3.01(d) of the Disclosure Letter shall be addressed in the manner provided on such Section 3.01(d) of the Disclosure Letter.

(e) Each member of the SpinCo Group that constitutes a Subsidiary Guarantor as of the Distribution Date shall execute and deliver, on or prior to the Distribution Date, a separate agreement guaranteeing, on a joint and several basis, the due and punctual performance and observance by SpinCo of its obligations contained in Section 6.02 to the extent relating to the obligations of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group pursuant to Section 2.01(n) or this Section 3.01 (the “SpinCo Subsidiary Guaranty”) subject, in each case, to all of the terms, provisions and conditions herein. Such SpinCo Subsidiary Guaranty shall, subject to the terms of this Section 3.01(e), be consistent in all material respects with the form of

34

subsidiary guarantee entered into by such Subsidiary Guarantors in connection with the SpinCo Senior Credit Facility. If SpinCo directly or indirectly forms or acquires a Subsidiary after the Distribution Date (including pursuant to a divisive merger or similar transaction) and if such Subsidiary constitutes a Subsidiary Guarantor (or if a Subsidiary of SpinCo that was not previously a Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor), within five (5) business days after the date such Subsidiary is formed or acquired (or such Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor), SpinCo shall cause such Subsidiary to execute and deliver a joinder to the SpinCo Subsidiary Guaranty in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Any Subsidiary Guarantor that ceases to be a Subsidiary of SpinCo due to a disposition of the equity interests of such Subsidiary Guarantor to one or more bona fide third parties in a transaction not entered into for the purpose of releasing such Subsidiary from the SpinCo Subsidiary Guarantee shall be released from its obligations under the SpinCo Subsidiary Guaranty.

(f) In the event that, after the Distribution Date, any member of the Parent Group shall make a payment under a Parent Credit Support Instrument or a Specified Contract which was not advanced, directly paid or reimbursed by a member of the SpinCo Group, Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct the amount of such payment (including any interest accruing thereon pursuant to Section 11.06 of the Disclosure Letter) from any other payment otherwise due and owing to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(g) From and after the Distribution Date, SpinCo shall not permit any Person or “group” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) to acquire, directly or indirectly (by operation of law or otherwise), (i) record or beneficial ownership of securities representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power of SpinCo’s capital stock or other equity interests in SpinCo, (ii) the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of SpinCo, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by Contract or otherwise, or (iii) assets comprising fifty percent (50%) or more of the consolidated assets of SpinCo, in each case of clauses (i) through (iii), by way of a merger, reorganization, consolidation transaction, spin-off, sale or other disposition of assets or equity interests or any other similar transaction, unless:

(x) the acquiring Person or group shall have agreed, by an instrument in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, to be bound by all the obligations of SpinCo (as if such Person or group were SpinCo) under Section 2.01, this Section 3.01, Section 3.02 and Section 3.04 (and under Section 6.02, to the extent relating to such provisions, and to the extent relating to the foregoing, the provisions of Section 6.04 through Section 6.07, Section 6.09 and ARTICLE XI (excluding Section 11.01, Section 11.13 and Section 11.14)), with respect to all Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and Remaining Specified Contracts as of the closing of such transaction(s); and

(y) the acquiring Person or group which shall be a party to the Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and Remaining Specified Contracts described in clause (x) above, shall have and reasonably would be expected to have, in each case following the closing of such transaction(s), (1) the financial and operational capacity to satisfy all obligations and other Liabilities arising from such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and Remaining Specified Contracts, as reasonably determined by Parent; and (2) unsecured investment grade ratings from at least two internationally recognized rating agencies; or

35

(z) if such acquiring Person or group does not satisfy all the requirements in the foregoing clauses (x), (y)(1) and (y)(2), SpinCo or such acquiring Person or group provides to the applicable member(s) of the Parent Group letters of credit, surety bonds or bank guarantees, in each case issued by a bank or other financial institution that is reasonably acceptable to Parent, against all obligations and other Liabilities arising from such Remaining Parent Credit Support Instrument or Remaining Specified Contract, as applicable, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, including as to amount and duration.

For the avoidance of doubt, no transaction described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 3.01(g) shall release any member of the SpinCo Group from liability for the full performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, unless expressly agreed to in writing by Parent.

Section 3.02 Replacement of SpinCo Credit Support.

(a) Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to arrange, at its sole cost and expense and effective as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event within the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, the termination or replacement of all Credit Support Instruments provided by, through or on behalf of any member of the SpinCo Group for the benefit of any member of the Parent Group or providing credit support for a Contract of Parent or its Subsidiary other than a SpinCo Contract (“SpinCo Credit Support Instruments”), including the SpinCo Credit Support Instruments listed or described on Section 3.02(a) of the Disclosure Letter, with alternative arrangements that do not require any Credit Support Instruments or other credit support from any member of the SpinCo Group. Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain from the beneficiaries of such Credit Support Instruments, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and in any event within the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, full written releases providing that such member of the SpinCo Group, as well as all related members of the SpinCo Group obligated or liable, directly or indirectly, for any obligations or other Liabilities to any counterparty in connection with such SpinCo Credit Support Instruments, is irrevocably and unconditionally released, absolved and forever discharged from any and all obligations and other Liabilities with respect to such SpinCo Credit Support Instruments. Such alternative arrangements and releases shall, in each case, be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to SpinCo. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any SpinCo Credit Support Instrument has not been terminated or replaced, or if a release from such SpinCo Credit Support Instrument in accordance with this Section 3.02(a) has not been obtained, in each case during the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, Parent shall continue to use reasonable best efforts to arrange, at its sole cost and expense and effective as soon as practicable thereafter, the termination, replacement or assumption (in each case, with full written releases) of such SpinCo Credit Support Instruments.

36

(b) In furtherance (and not in limitation) of Section 3.02(a), to the extent appropriate, advisable or required to obtain the termination or replacement of, and full written release from, a SpinCo Credit Support Instrument in accordance with Section 3.02(a), Parent shall, or shall cause the appropriate creditworthy members of the Parent Group to, execute an agreement substantially in the form of, and containing, representations, covenants and other terms or provisions which are as close as possible to those contained in, such existing SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, or such other form as the applicable counterparty shall reasonably require, except Parent or such other member(s) of the Parent Group shall not be required to agree to any representations, covenants or other terms or provisions to the extent that (i) Parent or such other applicable member(s) of the Parent Group would be reasonably unable to comply therewith or (ii) such representations, covenants or other terms or provisions would be reasonably expected to be breached by Parent or any such other member(s) of the Parent Group despite Parent or such Parent Group member(s)’ good faith efforts to comply; it being understood that in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), Parent or such other member(s) of the Parent Group shall be required to offer and agree to such alternative provisions as the applicable counterparty shall reasonably require in order to avoid any outcome where such member(s) of the Parent Group would be unable to comply or expected to breach, as applicable.

(c) For any SpinCo Credit Support Instrument that has not been terminated or replaced, or for which full written releases from such SpinCo Credit Support Instrument in accordance with Section 3.02(a) and Section 3.02(b) have not been obtained (any such SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, as of any time of determination, a “Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument”), in each case except to the extent otherwise agreed by SpinCo:

(i) without limiting Parent’s obligations under Article VI, Parent shall, from and after the Distribution, to the extent that SpinCo has determined that such amounts are payable hereunder, (x) pay directly to the guarantor, obligor or surety issuing such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument any and all Liabilities incurred in connection with such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days following receipt by a member of the SpinCo Group of a written demand in respect of such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, (y) where a member of the SpinCo Group is required to pay such Liabilities directly to the counterparty, advance such amounts to SpinCo (or, at SpinCo’s election, another member of the SpinCo Group) prior to such member of the SpinCo Group’s requirement to pay and (z) indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the SpinCo Group against, and reimburse such member of the SpinCo Group for, all Liabilities, fees, costs and any other amounts paid by such member of the SpinCo Group in connection with such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, including any premiums due under such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument and any amounts such member of the SpinCo Group is obligated to pay the guarantor, obligor or surety issuing such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument whether or not such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument is drawn upon or required to be performed;

(ii) with respect to any such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument that is in the form of a letter of credit, surety bond or bank guarantee, Parent shall, to the extent requested by Parent in writing, provide the applicable member(s) of the SpinCo Group with letters of credit, surety bonds or bank guarantees, in each case issued by a bank or other financial institution that is reasonably acceptable to SpinCo, against all losses arising from such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to SpinCo; and

37

(iii) except as set forth on Section 3.02(d) of the Disclosure Letter, with respect to such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, Parent, on behalf of itself and the members of the Parent Group, agrees, except as otherwise expressly required by the terms of a Contract with a third party in effect as of the Distribution, not to renew or extend the term of (or, in the case of Contracts subject to automatic renewal or that have no fixed term, from and after the end of the Initial Credit Support Replacement Period, fail to take such actions as are authorized under such Contracts to prevent such automatic renewal or to terminate such Contracts without a fixed term at the earliest time permitted by such Contracts), increase any of its obligations or other Liabilities under or directly or indirectly assign, convey or transfer to a third Person (in whole or in part, except in connection with the disposition of a business or of the equity securities of a Parent Group member, which shall not be restricted by virtue of this provision) any loan, guarantee, lease, sublease, license, Contract or other obligation for which the other Party or any member of the other Party’s Group is or may be obligated or liable under such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, in each case unless (x) all obligations and other Liabilities of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated with a full written release in accordance with Section 3.02(a) and Section 3.02(b) by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to SpinCo or (y) Parent provides to the applicable member(s) of the SpinCo Group letters of credit, surety bonds or bank guarantees, in each case issued by a bank or other financial institution that is reasonably acceptable to SpinCo, against all obligations and other Liabilities arising from such Remaining SpinCo Credit Support Instrument, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to SpinCo, including as to amount and duration.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.02, the SpinCo Credit Support Instruments listed on Section 3.02(d) of the Disclosure Letter shall be addressed in the manner provided on such Section 3.02(d) of the Disclosure Letter.

Section 3.03 Steering Committee. As promptly as reasonably practicable after the Distribution, Parent and SpinCo shall form a steering committee (the “Steering Committee”) which shall not have fewer than six (6) members and shall be comprised of an equal number of members appointed by Parent and SpinCo. The Steering Committee shall be responsible for monitoring, sharing information, and coordinating between Parent and SpinCo with respect to, the termination or replacement of, and full written release from, of any Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and Remaining Specified Contracts in accordance with the terms of Section 3.01 and Section 3.02. The Steering Committee shall meet at least quarterly at a location and time reasonably acceptable to SpinCo and Parent. The Steering Committee shall, promptly following its establishment, adopt procedures for the conduct of its activities in compliance with applicable Law. The Steering Committee shall dissolve at such time as there are no Remaining Parent Credit Support Instruments and no Remaining Specified Contracts.

38

THE DISTRIBUTION

Section 5.01 The Distribution.

(a) SpinCo shall cooperate with Parent to accomplish the Distribution and shall, at the direction of Parent, use its reasonable best efforts to promptly take any and all actions reasonably necessary, customary or advisable to effect the Distribution, including any Customary Offering Actions. Parent shall select any investment bank or manager in connection with the Distribution as well as any financial printer, solicitation, exchange or distribution agent and financial, legal, accounting, tax and other advisors for Parent in connection with the Distribution. Parent or SpinCo, as the case may be, will provide, or cause the applicable member of its Group to provide, to the Agent all share certificates and any information required in order to complete the Distribution (provided that any information required to be provided under this Section 5.01(a) shall be subject to Section 7.09).

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (i) after completion of the Separation Transactions (other than those steps that are expressly contemplated to occur at or after the Distribution) and on or prior to the Distribution Date, for the benefit of and distribution to the holders of Parent Common Stock as of the Record Date (“Record Holders”), Parent will deliver to the Agent 100.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by Parent and book-entry authorizations for such shares and

41

(ii) on the Distribution Date, Parent shall instruct the Agent to distribute, by means of a pro rata dividend based on the aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock held by each applicable Record Holder, to each Record Holder (or such Record Holder’s bank or brokerage firm on such Record Holder’s behalf) electronically, by direct registration in book-entry form, the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock to which such Record Holder is entitled based on a distribution ratio determined by Parent in its sole discretion. The Distribution shall be effective at 12:10 a.m. New York City time on the Distribution Date. Parent shall, on or as soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, instruct the Agent to mail to each Record Holder (or otherwise transmit in accordance with the Agent’s regular practices) an account statement indicating the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock that have been registered in book-entry form in the name of such Record Holder.

Section 5.02 Fractional Shares. Record Holders holding a number of shares of Parent Common Stock on the Record Date that would entitle such holders to receive less than one whole share of SpinCo Common Stock in the Distribution will receive cash in lieu of such fractional share. Fractional shares of SpinCo Common Stock will not be distributed in the Distribution nor credited to book-entry accounts. Parent shall cause the Agent to, as soon as practicable after the date on which “when-issued” trading of the SpinCo Common Stock begins on the Exchange, (a) determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of SpinCo Common Stock allocable to each Record Holder and (b) aggregate all fractional shares into whole shares and sell the whole shares obtained thereby in open market transactions at then prevailing trading prices on behalf of holders who would otherwise be entitled to fractional share interests. Parent shall cause the Agent to, as soon as practicable after the Distribution Date, distribute to each such holder, or for the benefit of each beneficial owner, such holder’s or owner’s ratable share of the net proceeds of such sale, based upon the average gross selling price per share of SpinCo Common Stock after making appropriate deductions for any amount required to be withheld under applicable Tax Law and less any brokers’ charges, commissions or transfer Taxes. The Agent, in its sole discretion, will determine the timing and method of selling such fractional shares, the selling price of such fractional shares and the broker-dealer through which such fractional shares will be sold; provided, however, that the designated broker-dealer shall not be an Affiliate of Parent or SpinCo. Neither Parent nor SpinCo will pay any interest on the proceeds from the sale of fractional shares.

Section 5.03 Sole Discretion of Parent. Parent shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine the Record Date, the Distribution Date and all terms of the Distribution, including the form, structure and terms of any transactions or offerings to effect the Distribution and the timing of and conditions to the consummation thereof. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth below, Parent may at any time and from time to time until the consummation of all or part of the Distribution decide to abandon the Distribution or modify or change the form, structure or terms of any transactions or offerings to effect the Distribution, including by accelerating or delaying the timing of the consummation of all or part of the Distribution. Any determinations regarding the allocation of Assets or Liabilities under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Agreement, including the identification of Assets or Liabilities for allocation hereunder or thereunder, shall be made by Parent in its sole and absolute discretion; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this sentence shall not amend the express terms of the Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement after the Distribution Date.

(iv) any Person from any Liability that the Parties may have with respect to indemnification or contribution pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement for claims brought against the Parties, the members of their respective Groups or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, by third Persons, which Liability shall be governed by Section 6.02, Section 6.03 and the other applicable provisions of this Article VI or, if applicable, the appropriate provisions of the relevant Ancillary Agreement;

(v) any Party (or any member of its Group) from any Liability that such Party (or any member of its Group) may have to directors, officers, agents or employees under indemnification or similar agreements or arrangements, except to the extent referred to in the last sentence of Section 6.01(a); or

(vi) any employee from any Liability relating to, arising out of or resulting from such Person’s fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation of Intellectual Property.

44

(d) SpinCo shall not make, and shall cause each other member of the SpinCo Group not to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against Parent or any other member of the Parent Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 6.01(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 6.01(a). Parent shall not make, and shall cause each other member of the Parent Group not to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification against SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 6.01(b), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 6.01(b).

(e) It is the intent of each of Parent and SpinCo, by virtue of the provisions of this Section 6.01, to provide for a full and complete release and discharge of all Liabilities existing or arising from all acts and events occurring, or failing to occur, or alleged to have occurred, or to have failed to occur, and all conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Distribution Date, between or among SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group, on the one hand, and Parent or any other member of the Parent Group, on the other hand (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between or among any such members on or before the Distribution Date), except as expressly set forth in Section 6.01, Section 6.02, Section 6.03 or elsewhere in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement. At any time, at the request of the other Party, each Party shall cause each member of its respective Group to execute and deliver releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

Section 6.02 Indemnification by SpinCo. Subject to Section 6.04, SpinCo shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent, each other member of the Parent Group and each of their respective former and then-current directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Parent Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the Parent Indemnitees to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication):

(a) the SpinCo Liabilities, including the failure of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any SpinCo Liability in accordance with its terms;

(b) any breach by SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group of this Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement, unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein (which shall be controlling); and

(c) any breach by SpinCo of any of the representations and warranties made by SpinCo on behalf of itself and the members of the SpinCo Group in Section 11.01(c) or in the Representation Letters.

45

Section 6.03 Indemnification by Parent. Subject to Section 6.04, Parent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless SpinCo, each other member of the SpinCo Group and each of their respective former and then-current directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “SpinCo Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the SpinCo Indemnitees to the extent relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication):

(a) the Parent Liabilities, including the failure of Parent or any other member of the Parent Group, or any other Person, to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any Parent Liability in accordance with its terms;

(b) any breach by Parent or any other member of the Parent Group of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein (which shall be controlling); and

(c) any breach by Parent of any of the representations and warranties made by Parent on behalf of itself and the members of the Parent Group in Section 11.01(c).

Section 6.04 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Third-Party Proceeds.

(a) The Parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement will be net of (i) Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of, or are paid to the applicable Indemnitee in respect of, such Liability and (ii) other amounts recovered from any third party (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in, or Taxes imposed with respect to, the collection thereof) that actually reduce the amount of, or are paid to the applicable Indemnitee in respect of, such Liability (“Third-Party Proceeds”). Accordingly, the amount that either Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee from a third party in respect of the related Liability. If an Indemnitee receives a payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability (an “Indemnity Payment”) and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds in respect of such Liability, then the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if such Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, such amount shall not exceed the amount of the Indemnity Payment.

(b) An insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or have any subrogation rights with respect thereto by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof. Subject to Section 6.10, each member of the Parent Group and SpinCo Group shall use reasonable best efforts to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds and any Third-Party Proceeds to which such Person is entitled in connection with any Liability for which such Person seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article VI; provided, however, that such Person’s inability to collect or recover any such Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds shall not limit the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder.

46

(c) The calculation of any Indemnity Payments required by this Agreement shall be subject to Section 5.2(c) of the TMA.

Section 6.05 Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of a Third-Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including Article III), such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as reasonably practicable. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and shall include: (i) the basis for, and nature of, such Third-Party Claim, including the facts constituting the basis for such Third-Party Claim; (ii) the estimated amount of losses (to the extent so estimable) that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnitee in connection with such Third-Party Claim; and (iii) copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that any such notice need only specify such information reasonably known to the Indemnitee as of the date of such notice and shall not limit or prejudice any of the rights or remedies of any Indemnitee on the basis of any limitations on the information included in such notice, including any such limitations made in good faith to preserve the attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other similar privilege or doctrine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 6.05(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VI, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice in accordance with this Section 6.05(a).

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 6.05(a), to assume and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that (x) SpinCo shall not be entitled to control the defense of any Third-Party Claim in respect of a Mixed Action (and, for the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall control any such defense), (y) the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to control the defense of any Third-Party Claim (i) to the extent such Third-Party Claim seeks criminal penalties or injunctive or other equitable relief or (ii) if the Party to this Agreement which is part of such Indemnitee’s Group has determined in good faith that the Indemnifying Party controlling such defense would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the reputation or the business relations of the Indemnitee or its Group, and (z) if the Party to this Agreement which is part of such Indemnitee’s Group determines in good faith that the proper defense of the Third-Party Claim requires that the election to assume the defense of such claim be made in fewer than thirty (30) days, the Indemnitee may request that such election be made in such shorter period as the Indemnitee may reasonably determine; provided that such shorter period may not be shorter than ten (10) days. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee in writing within the time period described in the immediately preceding sentence as to whether or not it will assume the defense of the

47

applicable Third-Party Claim. During such notice period, and prior to an election by the Indemnifying Party to control the defense of the applicable Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall be permitted to take such actions in respect of such Third-Party Claim as the Indemnitee determines in good faith are necessary or appropriate to avoid prejudice to the Indemnitee’s interests in respect of such Third-Party Claim during such notice period, provided that the Indemnitee will consult reasonably and in good faith with the Indemnifying Party in respect of such actions in advance of taking such actions to the extent possible.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim (or is not permitted to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim) in accordance with this Agreement, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in Section 6.05(b), such Indemnitee may defend such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects (and is permitted) to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party elects (and is permitted) to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any additional legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that if the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third-Party Claim, or the nature of such Third-Party Claim changes such that the Indemnifying Party would no longer be entitled to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 6.05(b), the Indemnitee may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable and documented costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but, subject to the immediately preceding sentence, not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. In the event, however, that such Indemnitee reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both such Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee could reasonably be expected to present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then the Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such Action and the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such counsel.

(e) No Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any Third-Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification to an Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including Article III) without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee or Indemnitees (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that such consent shall not be required if the judgment or settlement: (i) contains no finding or admission of liability with respect to any such Indemnitee or Indemnitees; (ii) involves only monetary relief which the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay; and (iii) includes a full and unconditional release of the Indemnitee or Indemnitees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of an Indemnitee shall be required for any entry of judgment or settlement if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against such Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

48

(f) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, no Indemnitee shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise, resolve or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 6.06 Additional Matters.

(a) Any claim on account of a Liability that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by prompt written notice given by the Indemnitee to the applicable Indemnifying Party. Any failure by an Indemnitee to give notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by such failure.

(b) In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, Liabilities incurred by an Indemnitee pursuant to a contractual indemnification or similar obligation granted to a third party in respect of Liabilities otherwise indemnifiable under Section 6.02 or Section 6.03 shall be indemnifiable thereunder to the same extent that the underlying Liabilities would have been indemnifiable under Section 6.02 or Section 6.03.

(d) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, the rights to recovery of each Party’s Subsidiaries in respect of any past, present or future Action are hereby delegated to such Party. It is the intent of the Parties that the foregoing delegation shall satisfy any Law requiring such delegation to be effected pursuant to a power of attorney or similar instrument. The Parties and their respective Subsidiaries shall execute such further instruments or documents as may be necessary to effect such delegation.

(e) Each of Parent and SpinCo hereby agrees that with respect to any Third-Party Claim or Action pending as of the Distribution Date or commenced following the Distribution Date, in each case that (x) has named as a defendant one or more members of the SpinCo Group but otherwise relates only to the Parent Business or (y) has named as a defendant one or more members of the Parent Group but otherwise relates only to the SpinCo Business, the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts, each at its own expense, to cause each such nominal defendant to be removed as a defendant from such Third-Party Claim or Action, as soon as reasonably practicable (including using reasonable best efforts to petition the applicable court or counterparty to remove each such nominal defendant).

49

Section 6.07 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article VI shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, Section 6.10 and Article XI, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

Section 6.08 Covenant Not to Sue. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees that none of it, the members of such Party’s Group or any Person claiming through it shall bring an Action or otherwise assert any claim or defense against any Person, including before any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative agency anywhere in the world, and further (on behalf of itself, the members of such Party’s Group, and any other Person claiming through it) waives and releases any claim or defense against any Person, alleging that: (a) the assumption or retention of any SpinCo Liabilities by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements is unlawful, a breach of a fiduciary or other duty, void, unenforceable, unconscionable, inequitable, or otherwise improper for any reason; (b) the assumption or retention of any Parent Liabilities by Parent or a member of the Parent Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements is unlawful, a breach of a fiduciary or other duty, void, unenforceable, unconscionable, inequitable, or otherwise improper for any reason; (c) the provisions of this Agreement (including this Article VI) or any Ancillary Agreement are unlawful, a breach of a fiduciary or other duty, void, unenforceable, unconscionable, inequitable, or otherwise improper for any reason; or (d) any member of the Parent Group owes fiduciary duties to any member of the SpinCo Group or any equity holder of such member in his, her or its capacity as such with respect to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any agreement entered into in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 6.09 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of Parent and SpinCo and their respective Indemnitees under this Article VI shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party or its Affiliates of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities.

Section 6.10 Indemnified Damages. Except as may expressly be set forth in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, none of Parent, SpinCo or any other member of either Group shall in any event have any Liability to the other or to any other member of the other’s Group, or to any other Parent Indemnitee or SpinCo Indemnitee, as applicable, under this Agreement for any indirect, special, punitive, consequential, exemplary, enhanced or treble damages, whether or not caused by or resulting from negligence or breach of obligations hereunder and whether or not informed of the possibility of the existence of such damages; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.10 shall not limit an Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to any Liability any Indemnitee may have to any third party not affiliated with any member of the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group for any indirect, special, punitive, consequential, exemplary, enhanced or treble damages.

Section 6.11 Management of Certain Actions and Internal Investigations. Notwithstanding the procedures set forth in Section 6.05, this Section 6.11 shall govern the management and direction of certain pending (or, as applicable in the case of Section 6.11(e), future) Actions and Internal Investigations involving one or more members of both the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group, but shall not alter the allocation of Liabilities set forth in Article II or rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02 or Section 6.03. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Section 6.11 and Section 6.05 in respect of a SpinCo Directed Action, Parent Directed Action or Joint Action, the provisions of this Section 6.11 shall govern.

The Parties and the applicable members of their respective Groups shall cooperate reasonably to preserve any attorney-client privilege, work product protection, joint defense, common interest or other privilege as to third parties as may be available in connection with each Group’s participation in a SpinCo Directed Action; and

(iv) the costs and expenses incurred by the SpinCo Group and the Parent Group in connection with the conduct of any SpinCo Directed Action shall be advanced, paid and reimbursed in accordance with Section 6.11 of the Disclosure Letter.

The Parties shall cooperate in good faith and take all reasonable actions to provide for any appropriate joinder or change in named parties to such Joint Actions such that the appropriate Party or member of each Party’s Group is party thereto. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate and consult with each other and, to the extent feasible, maintain a joint defense in a manner that would preserve for both Parties and their respective Affiliates any attorney-client privilege, work product protection, joint defense, common interest or other privilege with respect to any Joint Action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the costs and expenses of counsel for each Joint Action shall be paid for by the Party indicated with respect to such Joint Action on Section 6.11(c) of the Disclosure Letter; provided, that in the event that either Party determines to retain new separate counsel with respect to any Joint Action, such Party shall bear the costs and expenses of its separate counsel. The costs and expenses incurred by SpinCo or Parent in connection with the conduct of any Joint Action shall be advanced, paid and reimbursed in

52

accordance with Section 6.11 of the Disclosure Letter. In any Joint Action, each of Parent and SpinCo may pursue separate defenses, claims, counterclaims or settlements to those claims relating solely to the Parent Business or the SpinCo Business, respectively; provided that each Party shall in good faith make reasonable best efforts to avoid adverse effects on the other Party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of the Non-Managing Party or co-defendant shall be required for any entry of judgment or settlement if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against the Non-Managing Party’s Group or its applicable related Persons (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(e) Any Government Investigation that (i) is not set forth on Section 6.11(c) of the Disclosure Letter, (ii) Parent determines in good faith involves one or more members of both the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group, (iii) relates to conduct that occurred prior to the Distribution Date and (iv) Parent determines in good faith involves, or would reasonably be expected to involve, non-monetary relief sought by a Governmental Authority with respect to a member of the Parent Group, shall be separately but cooperatively managed and directed by the Parties as if it were a Joint Action in accordance with the terms of Section 6.11(c) (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to Section 6.11 of the Disclosure Letter and Section 6.11(d)). If either Party shall receive notice or otherwise learn of a Government Investigation that would reasonably be expected to require cooperative management as a Joint Action pursuant to this Section 6.11(e), such Party shall give the other Party written notice thereof as soon as reasonably practicable.

58

(d) Subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 7.08, the Parties agree that Parent shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with privileged Information not otherwise allocated pursuant to this Section 7.08 in connection with any Actions or Internal Investigations, or threatened or contemplated Actions or Internal Investigations, or other matters that involve both Parties (or one or more members of their respective Groups), whether or not such privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of a member of the SpinCo Group or a member of the Parent Group.

(e) To the extent that an issue regarding a privilege controlled by one Party under this Section 7.08 arises in connection with an Action or Internal Investigation the defense, prosecution or conduct (as applicable) of which the other Party is entitled to direct pursuant to Section 6.11, the Party entitled to control such privilege shall cooperate in good faith with the Party directing such Action or Internal Investigation in order to facilitate the efficient administration of such Action or Internal Investigation. If any dispute arises between the Parties or any members of their respective Group regarding whether a privilege or immunity should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either Party or any member of their respective Groups, each Party agrees that it shall: (i) negotiate with the other Party in good faith and (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party and the members of its Group.

(f) Upon receipt by either Party, or by any member of its respective Group, of any subpoena, discovery or other request (or of written notice that it will receive or has received such subpoena, discovery or other request) that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of privileged Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which the other Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if either Party obtains knowledge or becomes aware that any of its, or any member of its respective Group’s, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests (or have received written notice that they will receive or have received such subpoena, discovery or other requests) that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such privileged Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of any such subpoena, discovery or other request and shall provide the other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the privileged Information and to assert any rights it or they may have, under this Section 7.08 or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such privileged Information; provided that if such Party is prohibited by applicable Law from disclosing the existence of such subpoena, discovery or other request, such Party shall provide written notice of such related information for which disclosure is not prohibited by applicable Law and use reasonable best efforts to inform the other Party of any related information such Party reasonably determines is necessary or appropriate for the other Party to be informed of to enable the other Party to review the privileged Information and to assert its rights, under this Section 7.08 or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such privileged Information.

(g) The Parties agree that their respective rights to any access to Information, witnesses and other Persons, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement, and the transfer of privileged Information between the Parties and members of their respective Groups pursuant to this Agreement, shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise. The Parties further agree that: (i) the exchange by one Party to the other Party of any Information that should not have been exchanged pursuant to the terms of Section 7.09 shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any privilege or immunity that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to such privileged Information; and (ii) the Party receiving such privileged Information shall promptly return such privileged Information to the Party who has the right to assert the privilege or immunity.

cooperate with the individuals who acted as directors or officers of SpinCo (or members of the SpinCo Group) prior to the Distribution in their pursuit of any such coverage claims under such D&O Policies which could inure to the benefit of such individuals.

Each of SpinCo and Parent shall, and shall cause each member of the SpinCo Group and the Parent Group, respectively, to have in effect at and after the Distribution such D&O Policies as are appropriate in their respective judgments to cover any claims reported at or after the Distribution for which they respectively have written indemnity obligations to directors, officers and employees, including for claims relating to acts or omissions prior to the Distribution.

(b) This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Disclosure Letter and the Appendices, Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous agreements, negotiations, discussions, writings, understandings, commitments and conversations with respect to such subject matter, and there are no agreements or understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein. In the event of conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement or any Master Ancillary Agreement, on the one hand, and the provisions of any Local Transfer Agreement (including any provision of a Local Transfer Agreement providing for dispute resolution mechanisms inconsistent with those provided herein), on the other hand, the provisions of this Agreement and any such Master Ancillary Agreement shall prevail and remain in full force and effect, unless otherwise stated in such Master Ancillary Agreement or required by non-waivable local Law.

67

(ii) this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement to which it is a party has been (or, in the case of any Ancillary Agreement, will be on or prior to the Distribution Date) duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes, or will constitute, a valid and binding agreement of it enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.

Section 11.02 Negotiation. In the event of any claim, controversy, demand or request for relief of any kind arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to the interpretation, performance, nonperformance, validity or breach of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides that disputes thereunder will not be subject to the resolution procedures set forth in this Article XI) or otherwise arising out of or related to this Agreement or any such Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any Action based on contract, tort, equity, statute, regulation or constitution (collectively, “Disputes”), the Party raising the Dispute shall give written notice of the Dispute (a “Dispute Notice”), and the general counsels of the Parties (or such other individuals designated by the respective general counsels) or the executive officers designated by the Parties shall negotiate for a reasonable period of time to settle such Dispute; provided, that such reasonable period shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, exceed ninety (90) days (the “Negotiation Period”) from the time of receipt of the Dispute Notice; provided, further, that in the event of any arbitration in accordance with Section 11.03, (x) the Parties shall not assert the defenses of statute of limitations, laches or any other defense, in each such case based on the passage of time during the Negotiation Period, and (y) any contractual time period or deadline under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement relating to such Dispute occurring after the Dispute Notice is received shall not be deemed to have passed until such arbitration has been resolved.

Section 11.03 Arbitration. If the Dispute has not been resolved for any reason after the Negotiation Period, such Dispute may be submitted by either Party to final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect (the “Rules”), except as provided in Section 11.04 or as otherwise modified herein.

(a) The arbitration shall, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 11.03(a) of the Disclosure Letter, be conducted using a single arbitrator who shall be selected from the list set forth on, and in accordance with the provisions of, Section 11.03(a) of the Disclosure Letter; provided, that any disputes relating to EHS Liabilities shall be conducted using a single arbitrator who shall be an attorney with experience in EHS Laws and who need not be selected from the list set forth on Section 11.03(a) of the Disclosure Letter.

(b) If, in the case of disputes that do not relate to EHS Liabilities, the Parties are unable to select an arbitrator based on the procedures set forth in Section 11.03(a) of the Disclosure Letter or none of the arbitrators listed on and selected in accordance with Section 11.03(a) of the Disclosure Letter is available or willing to serve, then the arbitration shall be conducted by a three-member arbitral tribunal (such three-member arbitral tribunal or single

68

arbitrator selected pursuant to Section 11.03(a), as applicable, the “Arbitral Tribunal”). In this event, the claimant shall nominate one arbitrator in accordance with the Rules, and the respondent shall nominate one arbitrator in accordance with the Rules within twenty-one (21) days after the appointment of the first arbitrator. The third arbitrator, who shall serve as chair of the Arbitral Tribunal, shall be jointly nominated by the two party-nominated arbitrators within twenty-one (21) days after the confirmation of the appointment of the second arbitrator or such additional period as may be mutually agreed. If any arbitrator is not appointed within the time limit provided herein, such arbitrator shall be appointed by JAMS in accordance with the listing, striking and ranking procedure in the Rules. With respect to any disputes relating to EHS Liabilities, the arbitrators shall be attorneys with experience in EHS Laws.

(c) The arbitration shall be held, and the award shall be rendered, in New York, New York, in the English language.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, by submitting their Dispute to arbitration under the Rules, the Parties expressly agree that all issues of arbitrability, including all issues concerning the propriety and timeliness of the commencement of the arbitration, the jurisdiction of the Arbitral Tribunal (including the scope of this agreement to arbitrate and the extent to which a Dispute is within that scope), and the procedural conditions for arbitration, shall be finally and solely determined by the Arbitral Tribunal.

(e) Without derogating from Section 11.03(f), the Arbitral Tribunal shall have the full authority to grant any pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment, interim or conservatory measure or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings (“Interim Relief”). The Parties shall exclusively submit any application for Interim Relief to only: (A) the Arbitral Tribunal; or (B) prior to the constitution of the Arbitral Tribunal, an emergency arbitrator appointed in the manner provided for in the Rules (the “Emergency Arbitrator”). Any Interim Relief so issued shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be deemed a final arbitration award for purposes of enforceability, and, moreover, shall also be deemed a term and condition of this Agreement subject to specific performance in Section 11.04. The foregoing procedures shall constitute the exclusive means of seeking Interim Relief; provided, however, that (i) the Arbitral Tribunal shall have the power to continue, review, vacate or modify any Interim Relief granted by an Emergency Arbitrator; and (ii) in the event an Emergency Arbitrator or the Arbitral Tribunal issues an order granting, denying or otherwise addressing Interim Relief (a “Decision on Interim Relief”), any Party may apply to enforce or require specific performance of such Decision on Interim Relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) The Arbitral Tribunal shall have the power to grant any remedy or relief that is in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Ancillary Agreement, including specific performance and temporary or final injunctive relief, provided, however, that the Arbitral Tribunal shall have no authority or power to limit, expand, alter, amend, modify, revoke or suspend any condition or provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, nor any right or power to award indirect, special, punitive, consequential, exemplary, enhanced or treble damages.

69

(g) The Arbitral Tribunal shall have the power to allocate the costs and fees of the arbitration, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and costs as well as those costs and fees addressed in the Rules, between the Parties in the manner it deems fit.

(h) Arbitration under this Article XI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any Dispute, and any award rendered thereby shall be final and binding upon the Parties as from the date rendered. Judgment on the award rendered by the Arbitral Tribunal may be entered in any state or federal court within the State of Delaware (which courts the Parties hereby agree have jurisdiction over them to enforce any such award) and any other court having jurisdiction over the relevant Party or its Assets.

Section 11.04 Specific Performance. Subject to Section 11.02 and Section 11.03, except as provided below, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement or any applicable Ancillary Agreement, the affected Party shall have the right to specific performance, declaratory relief and injunctive or other equitable relief (on a permanent, emergency, temporary, preliminary or interim basis) of its rights under this Agreement or any applicable Ancillary Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The other Party shall not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that money damages are an adequate remedy. The Parties agree that the remedies at Law for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at Law would be adequate is hereby waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond or similar security with such remedy are hereby waived. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights pursuant to this Section 11.04 shall be pursued in arbitration under Section 11.03.

Section 11.05 Treatment of Arbitration. The Parties agree that any arbitration hereunder shall be kept confidential, and that the existence of the proceeding and all of its elements (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents or evidence submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and any awards) shall be deemed confidential, and shall not be disclosed beyond the Arbitral Tribunal, the Parties, their counsel, and any Person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as and to the extent required by applicable Law or stock exchange rule or to defend or pursue any legal right or to the extent required for financial reporting or the audit of applicable financial statements. In the event any Party makes application to any court in connection with this Section 11.05 (including any proceedings to enforce a final award or any Interim Relief), that Party shall take all steps reasonably within its power to cause such application, and any exhibits (including copies of any award or decisions of the Arbitral Tribunal or Emergency Arbitrator) to be filed under seal (other than with respect to materials already publicly available), shall oppose any challenge by any third party to such sealing, and shall give the other Party prompt (and, in any event, within one business day) notice of such challenge.

Section 11.06 No Set-Off; Payments. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement or as otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties, (a) neither Party nor any member of such Party’s Group shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (i) amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or (ii) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Party or any member of its Group arising out of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement and (b) any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2.01(g) and Section 2.03(d)(iii)) or any Ancillary Agreement shall be settled in the manner and on the timeframes provided on Section 11.06 of the Disclosure Letter.

70

Section 11.07 Continuity of Service and Performance. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall continue to provide services and honor all other commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.02, Section 11.03, Section 11.04 or Section 11.05 with respect to all matters not subject to such dispute resolution.

Section 11.08 Governing Law. This Agreement and any disputes relating to, arising out of or resulting from this Agreement, including to its execution, performance, or enforcement, shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws thereof.

Section 11.09 Assignability. Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any right, interest or obligation arising under this Agreement shall be assignable (including by means of a divisional or divisive merger or similar transaction), in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by either Party without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to assign any rights, interests or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be void; provided, that (i) a Party may assign any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder to a member of such Party’s Group, so long as such assignee agrees pursuant to an agreement in writing reasonably satisfactory to the other Party to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if named a “Party” hereto and (ii) a Party may assign this Agreement or any or all of the rights, interests and obligations hereunder in connection with a merger, divisive merger, reorganization or consolidation transaction in which such Party is a constituent party but not the surviving entity or the sale by such Party of all or substantially all of its Assets, so long as the surviving entity of such merger, reorganization or consolidation transaction or the transferee of such Assets shall assume all the obligations of the relevant Party by operation of law or pursuant to an agreement in writing, reasonably satisfactory to the other Party, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as if named as a “Party” hereto; provided, further, that no assignment permitted by clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 11.09 shall release the assigning Party from liability for the full performance of its obligations under this Agreement, unless agreed to in writing by the non-assigning Party. In the case of any assignment permitted by this Section 11.09, the assigning Party shall provide prompt written notice of such assignment to the non-assigning Party.

Section 11.10 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly set forth in Section 7.10, the rights of the members of each Party’s Group as set forth herein, and for the indemnification rights under this Agreement of any Parent Indemnitee or SpinCo Indemnitee in his, her or its capacity as such, (a) the provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and are not intended to confer upon any Person except the Parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder and (b) there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement shall not provide any third person with any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

71

All notices or other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given (a) when delivered in person, (b) on the date received, if sent by a nationally recognized delivery or courier service, (c) upon written confirmation of receipt after transmittal by electronic mail (followed by delivery of an original via overnight courier service) or (d) upon the earlier of confirmed receipt or the fifth (5th) business day following the date of mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed as follows:

Each Party agrees that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the other Party’s right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law (including pursuant to the rules for foreign service of process authorized by the Hague Convention).

72

Section 11.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances, or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either Party. Upon any such determination, any such provision, to the extent determined to be invalid, void or unenforceable, shall be deemed replaced by a provision that such arbitrator or court determines is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, void or unenforceable provision.

Section 11.13 Publicity. Each of Parent and SpinCo shall consult with the other and shall, subject to the requirements of Section 7.09, provide the other Party the opportunity to review and comment upon any press releases or other public statements in connection with the Spin-Off or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby and any filings with any Governmental Authority or national securities exchange with respect thereto, in each case prior to the issuance or filing thereof, as applicable (including the Information Statement, the Parties’ respective Current Reports on Form 8-K to be filed on the Distribution Date, the Parties’ respective Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with respect to the fiscal quarter during which the Distribution Date occurs, or if such quarter is the fourth fiscal quarter, the Parties’ respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K filed with respect to the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs (each such Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, a “First Post-Distribution Report”)). Each Party’s obligations pursuant to this Section 11.13 shall terminate on the date on which such Party’s First Post-Distribution Report is filed with the Commission.

Section 11.14 Expenses. Except as set forth on Section 11.14 of the Disclosure Letter, or as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, (i) all third-party fees, costs and expenses incurred by either the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group in connection with effecting the Spin-Off prior to or on the Distribution Date (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any financing fees, discounts or interest payable in respect of any indebtedness incurred by SpinCo in connection with the Spin-Off), will be borne and paid by Parent and (ii) all third-party fees, costs and expenses incurred by either the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group in connection with effecting the Spin-Off following the Distribution Date, will be borne and paid by the Party incurring such fee, cost or expense. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.14 shall not affect each Party’s responsibility to indemnify Parent Liabilities or SpinCo Liabilities, as applicable, arising from the transactions contemplated by the Distribution.

Section 11.15 Headings. The article, section and paragraph headings contained in this Agreement, including in the table of contents of this Agreement, are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 11.16 Survival of Covenants. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the covenants in this Agreement and the Liabilities for the breach of any obligations in this Agreement shall survive the Spin-Off and shall remain in full force and effect.

73

Section 11.17 Waivers of Default. No failure or delay of any Party (or the applicable member of its Group) in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Waiver by any Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default.

Section 11.18 Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by any Party, unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized representative of each Party; provided, that nothing in this Section 11.18 shall limit the provisions of Section 2.07.

Section 11.19 Interpretation. Words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires. The terms “hereof,” “herein,” “herewith” and words of similar import, unless otherwise stated, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole (including the Disclosure Letter) and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Article or Section references are to the Articles and Sections of or to this Agreement or the Disclosure Letter, as applicable, unless otherwise specified. Any capitalized terms used in the Disclosure Letter or in any Schedule to any Ancillary Agreement but not otherwise defined therein shall have the meaning as defined in the Disclosure Letter or the Ancillary Agreement to which such Schedule is attached, as applicable. Any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein (including any reference herein to this Agreement) shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth therein, including in Section 11.18). The word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall mean “including, without limitation,” unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” All references to “$” or dollar amounts are to the lawful currency of the United States of America. References herein to any Law shall be deemed to refer to such law as amended, reenacted, supplemented or superseded in whole or in part and in effect from time to time and also to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In the event that an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring either Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions hereof.
