For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the Excluded Liabilities include, but are not limited to, any and all liabilities or obligations set forth or described in paragraphs (a) through (l) below, whether or not any such liability or obligation has a value for accounting purpose or is carried or reflected on or specifically referred to in Seller’s or the applicable Affiliate’s books or financial statements: (a) any Excluded Taxes; (b) any liability or obligation arising out of or related to any Excluded Asset; (c) any accounts payable or trade payables; (d) any indebtedness for borrowed money or guarantees thereof of Seller and its Affiliates or intercompany obligations of Seller or any Affiliate; (e) any liability or obligation relating to or arising (whether before, on or after the Closing Date) out of (i) the employment and any termination of such employment by Seller or any Affiliate of any employee or former employee of Seller or an Affiliate; (ii) any employee’s or former employee’s or such employee’s dependents’ rights or obligations with respect to any fringe benefit of employment with Seller or an Affiliate, including any Benefit Plan; (iii) the unpaid vacation, personal days and floating holidays accrued by Transferred Employees that are not required by applicable Law to be provided by Buyer or a Buyer Designee; and (iv) any change in control, retention or severance payments granted or awarded by Seller or an Affiliate prior to the Closing to be paid (if earned) to the Transferred Employees following the Closing; (f) any liability and obligation which arises out of or relates to any breach, default or violation by Seller or its Affiliates of any lease, Transferred Contract or Transferred Governmental Permit occurring on or prior to the Closing Date; (g) any liability or obligation in connection with, or relating to, any actions, suits, claims or proceedings against Seller or any Affiliate which arise out of, accrue, or relate to (i) the operation or conduct of the Target Business or (ii) the ownership or use of the Purchased Assets, including all claims or allegations of infringement, misappropriation, and other violations of Intellectual Property rights therein, in each case on or before the Closing Date;

(a) From time to time following the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further conveyances, notices, assumptions, releases, acquittances and other instruments, and shall take such further actions, as may be necessary or appropriate to transfer fully to, and vest in, Buyer and the Buyer Designees and each of their respective successors or assigns, all of the properties, rights, titles, interests, estates, remedies, powers and privileges intended to be conveyed to Buyer or a Buyer Designee under this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements and to assure fully to Seller and its Subsidiaries and each of their respective successors and assigns, the assumption of the liabilities and obligations intended to be assumed by Buyer or a Buyer Designee under this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements, and to otherwise make effective the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including (i) transferring back to Seller or a Subsidiary any asset or liability not contemplated by this Agreement to be a Purchased Asset or an Assumed Liability, respectively, if and to the extent that any such asset or liability was erroneously or inadvertently transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee at the Closing and (ii) transferring to Buyer or a Buyer Designee any asset or liability contemplated by this Agreement to be a Purchased Asset or an Assumed Liability, respectively, which was erroneously or inadvertently not transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee at the Closing).

-23- (b) Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to transfer or assign any Purchased Asset, including any Transferred Contract, Transferred Governmental Permit, certificate, approval, license, authorization or other right, which by its terms or by Law is nonassignable or cannot be entered into without the consent of a Third Party or a Governmental Body or is cancelable by a Third Party in the event of an assignment (“Nonassignable Assets”) unless and until (i) such consents shall have been obtained or (ii) Buyer or a Buyer Designee notifies Seller that any such Purchased Asset should be transferred or assigned notwithstanding the absence of a requisite Third Party consent or Governmental Body consent or the right of a Third Party to cancel such Nonassignable Asset in the event of a transfer or assignment hereunder, in which event such Purchased Asset shall not be a Nonassignable Asset for purposes of this Agreement and shall instead be transferred and assigned hereunder notwithstanding the absence of such Third Party consent or Governmental Body consent or any right of a Third Party to cancel such Purchased Asset. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consents and deliver any required notices under all Nonassignable Assets, and Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with Seller to obtain such consents promptly. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event any requisite consent cannot be or is not for any reason obtained prior to the Closing, from and after the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to develop a mutually agreeable arrangement (including by way of amendment or addition of services to the Transition Services Agreement) under which Buyer or a Buyer Designee would obtain the benefits and assume the obligations under such Nonassignable Assets in accordance with this Agreement, including by sub-contracting, sub-licensing, or sub-leasing to Buyer or a Buyer Designee. From and after the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, also take or cause to be taken at Seller’s expense, such actions in its name or otherwise as mutually agreed to by the Parties (provided, that, Seller’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so as to provide Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee with the benefits of the Nonassignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Nonassignable Assets, and Seller or the applicable Subsidiary shall promptly pay over to Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee all money or other consideration received by it in respect to all Nonassignable Assets; provided, however, with respect to any Transferred Governmental Permit which is a Nonasignable Asset, Buyer shall be responsible to pay (or as reasonably necessary, reimburse Seller for) the expense of transferring such Transferred Governmental Permit to Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement; and provided further, that Seller shall be entitled to deduct from any money or other consideration collected by Seller and required to be paid over to Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee as described in this sentence, the out-of-pocket reasonable costs actually incurred by Seller to collect such amounts for the benefit of Buyer and any applicable early termination fees or penalties payable by Seller in connection with the Nonassignable Assets, so long as Seller obtained Buyer’s written consent prior to incurring such costs to collect such amounts or paying any such applicable early termination fees or penalties. If after the Closing Date any Nonassignable Asset becomes assignable (either because consent for the assignment or execution thereof is obtained or otherwise), Seller shall promptly notify Buyer and cooperate to assign or transfer such previously Nonassignable Asset to Buyer or the

-24- applicable Buyer Designee. Further, the Parties agree that Transferred Contracts and other Purchased Assets which Seller requires to provide services pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement will not be transferred or assigned until the completion of the services under the Transition Services Agreement that require those Transferred Contracts and other Purchased Assets. Seller shall not terminate or materially extend, amend, modify or waive any right with respect to any such Transferred Contract without Buyer’s prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. (c) Buyer and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any consent, substitution, approval, or amendment required to transfer all rights and obligations under any and all Transferred Contracts, Transferred Governmental Permits, certificates, approvals, licenses, authorizations or other rights or obligations or liabilities that constitute Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities or that are required to perform the obligations under the Collateral Agreements. (d) From and after the Closing Date, Seller on behalf of itself and its Affiliates authorizes Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Nonassignable Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of Seller or its Affiliates under the Nonassignable Assets and appoints Buyer its attorney-in-fact to act in its name on its behalf or in the name of the applicable Affiliate of Seller and on such Affiliate’s behalf with respect thereto. (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until any consent or approval with respect to any Nonassignable Asset is obtained, such Nonassignable Asset shall not constitute a Purchased Asset and any associated liability shall not constitute an Assumed Liability for any purpose under this Agreement. 2.6. Intellectual Property and Information. Unless expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Intellectual Property License Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement, no title, right or license of any kind is granted to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Intellectual Property or Information owned or controlled by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, either directly or indirectly, by implication, by estoppel or otherwise. 2.7. Bulk Sales Law. Buyer hereby waives compliance by Seller and any Subsidiary with the requirements and provisions of any “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction (collectively, the “Bulk Sales Laws”), including Article 6 of the California Uniform Commercial Code, in each case that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the sale of any or all of the Purchased Assets to Buyer or a Buyer Designee. 2.8. Taxes. (a) Buyer and any Buyer Designee shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration or any payment otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Buyer or any Buyer Designee, as applicable, is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any Tax Law, with respect to the making of such payment. Such withheld amounts shall be paid to the applicable Governmental Body. To the extent that

-25- amounts are so withheld and paid to the appropriate Governmental Body, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made. If Buyer or a Buyer Designee intends to deduct or withhold on account of Taxes with respect to any payments made pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer or such Buyer Designee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide reasonable advance notice to Seller (or such other Person to whom such amount is payable) of any amounts otherwise payable to Seller (or such other Person) that it intends to deduct and withhold. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and provided that Seller (or such other Person) provides the properly completed Form W-8, Form W-9 or other similar forms, including any applicable non-U.S. Tax forms, (as applicable) as the applicable Buyer or Buyer Designee reasonably requests and except to the extent otherwise required by Law, Buyer or Buyer Designee shall not be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement any amounts of Tax. If withholding of Tax is required under this Section 2.8(a), (i) Seller (or such other Person) shall be entitled to claim the benefit of any applicable Tax treaty in any non-U.S. jurisdiction in which withholding is required, (ii) Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee shall reasonably cooperate in good faith with Seller (or other Person, as applicable) to facilitate any such claim and to minimize or eliminate, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, any such withholding obligation, and (iii) Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee shall provide the Person in respect of whom withholding is imposed such documentation to support such Person’s claim of having paid the withheld amounts to the applicable taxing authorities. (b) The payment for any sales, use, transfer, conveyance, stamp, registration, documentary, filing, recording, or similar fees or Taxes (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the transfer of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities to and by, respectively, Buyer and Buyer Designees pursuant to this Agreement shall be borne solely by Buyer when due. (c) Unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, any consideration stated to be payable or to be borne under this Agreement is exclusive of any applicable Value Added Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Taxes that are Value Added Taxes imposed on assets sold hereunder, to the extent such Taxes are fully recoverable by Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee (or would have been recoverable or not chargeable if Buyer had designated a local entity registered for Value Added Tax purposes to acquire the assets and operate the acquired business in each applicable country), shall be borne solely by Buyer or Buyer Designees, buy only to the extent that a duly issued invoice has been provided by Seller or a Subsidiary to Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee, which invoice may be subject to adjustment following the completion of the Asset Level Allocation Statement. In the case and to the extent of Value Added Taxes incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that are fully or partially recoverable by Buyer or a Buyer Designee, such Taxes shall be properly invoiced by Seller or its Subsidiaries to Buyer or Buyer Designee, as applicable, paid by Buyer or Buyer Designee to Seller or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and remitted by Seller or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with applicable Law, and Buyer or Buyer Designee shall be entitled to such recovery. The Party prescribed by Law as primarily liable for the payment of such Value Added Taxes shall

-26- prepare all necessary documents (including all Returns) with respect to all such amounts in a timely manner. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment to such documents resulting from changes to valuation shall not cause such documents to be considered untimely. The Parties shall use reasonable efforts and cooperate in good faith to determine the appropriate rate of Value Added Tax and/or, where available, to apply for specific relief for a “transfer of a going concern.” Consistent with the other provisions of this Section Error! Reference source not found., in the event that the competent Tax authority determines that the transactions contemplated hereby do not qualify for such Value Added Taxes relief applied by the Parties, Seller shall charge Buyer Value Added Taxes due on the transactions contemplated hereby and deliver to Buyer a valid Value Added Taxes invoice within the time as may be required by applicable Law. Value Added Taxes should be paid by Buyer to Seller, in addition to the consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement, and Seller shall remit the Value Added Taxes to the relevant Governmental Body, in each case, within such timing as may be required or customary under applicable Law. Any related interest, and/or penalties and/or surcharges imposed by the applicable Governmental Body related to this Agreement will be paid by Seller, Buyer, or the Buyer's Designee, provided that the fault is exclusively attributable to them. If the fault resulting in interest, penalties, and/or surcharges is not exclusively attributable to one party, including any challenges to the application of any applicable exemptions from Value Added Taxes (such as the transfer of a going concern, zero-rating sales, etc.) as discussed and agreed by the Parties, then the Parties shall bear the interest, penalties, and/or surcharges equally. (d) All real property Taxes (if any), personal property Taxes and similar ad valorem obligations (“Property Taxes”) levied with respect to the Purchased Assets for a Straddle Period shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer based on the number of days of such Straddle Period, and Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of Property Taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period within such Straddle Period, and Buyer shall be liable for the proportionate amount of Property Taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period within such Straddle Period. Any refund, rebate, abatement or other recovery of Property Taxes attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of Seller, and any refund, rebate, abatement or other recovery of Property Taxes attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of Buyer. Upon receipt of any bill (or any refund, rebate, abatement, or other recovery) for such Property Taxes, Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall present a statement to the other setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 2.8(d) together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the Party owing it to the other within thirty (30) days after delivery of such statement. In the event that Buyer or Seller makes any payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 2.8(d), the applicable Party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting Party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay when due all Property Taxes levied with respect to the Purchased Assets attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

-27- (e) Following the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate as reasonably requested, so long as such request would not adversely impact Seller or its Affiliates, for the purpose of enabling the requesting Party to (i) make any election relating to Taxes, (ii) prepare Returns with respect to the Target Business or the Purchased Assets or (iii) to prepare for and defend audits or other Tax-related examinations by a Governmental Body with respect to the Target Business and the Purchased Assets. (f) Seller and its Affiliates shall not permit any Tax deficiencies (including penalties and interest) of any kind assessed against or relating to Seller and its Affiliates with respect to any taxable periods ending on or before, or including, the Closing Date of a character or nature that would reasonably be expected to result in Liens (other than any Lien for Taxes that are not yet due and payable) or claims on any of the Purchased Assets or on Buyer’s title or use of the Purchased Assets following the Closing or that would reasonably be expected to result in any claim against or liability of Buyer. 2.9. Buyer Designee. The Parties agree that Buyer may assign the right to purchase certain of the Purchased Assets to one or more Buyer Designees or that one or more Buyer Designees may enter into a Collateral Agreement. Notwithstanding any such assignment or execution of a Collateral Agreement by a Buyer Designee, Buyer shall remain liable for, and any such assignment or execution shall not relieve Buyer of, its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Any reference to Buyer in this Agreement shall to the extent applicable also be deemed a reference to the applicable Buyer Designee, except where in context of this Agreement such use would not be appropriate. 2.10. Purchase Price. In consideration of the grant, sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery by Seller and the Subsidiaries of the Purchased Assets to Buyer or a Buyer Designee, Buyer and/or a Buyer Designee(s) shall (i) pay to Seller or the applicable Subsidiary at the Closing an aggregate amount in cash equal to $210,000,000.00, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section Error! Reference source not found. below (the “Closing Payment”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller’s written instructions to Buyer at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) assume the Assumed Liabilities upon the Closing pursuant hereto (the sum of the Closing Payment and the Assumed Liabilities, the “Purchase Price”). 3.

Neither Seller nor any Subsidiary is in violation of or default under any Permit which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to be material to the Target Business, and no event has occurred that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to result in the revocation, suspension, lapse or limitation of any Transferred Governmental Permit. 3.7.

-54- (h) will not sell, lease, license, abandon, permit to lapse, or otherwise transfer or assign, grant any interest in or license to, or create or incur any Encumbrance on any of the assets, securities, properties, or interests of the Target Business (including the Assigned Intellectual Property, Intellectual Property rights in the Purchased Assets, and the Licensed Intellectual Property), including not taking any action to abandon, cancel, disclose, misuse, or misappropriate the Assigned Intellectual Property, any Transferred In-Licenses, or any Licensed Intellectual Property in any manner or assert or threaten any claims with respect to the Assigned Intellectual Property, or the Licensed Intellectual Property; (i) other than as required by applicable Law or consistent with historic practices and policies of Seller, will not terminate or modify in any material way the terms and conditions of employment of any Business Employee, hire any employee who would be a Business Employee, or, except in the ordinary course of business, modify the salaries, wage rates, other compensation or benefits of, or grant any equity, retention, change in control, incentive, severance or termination payment to, any Business Employee (other than making merit based raises or cost of living increases to salaries or wage rates of Business Employees in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice and provided that such raises or increases do not exceed five percent (5%) individually as set forth in Schedule 3.9(a)(i)); (j) will not, unless required by Law, enter into any collective bargaining agreement or other similar agreement or arrangement with any labor union or management union or association, works council, employee representative or other labor organization or group of employees representing the Business Employees; (k) will not dispose of or disclose to any Person any Trade Secrets or confidential information of Seller relating to the Target Business not theretofore generally available to the public; (l) will not fail to comply in any material respect with all Laws applicable to the Target Business or the Purchased Assets; (m) will not do any other act which would cause any representation or warranty of Seller in this Agreement to be or become untrue in any material respect or intentionally omit to take any action necessary to prevent any such representation or warranty from being untrue in any material respect; (n) will not make, change or revoke any Tax election; adopt or change any accounting method with respect to Taxes; file any amended Return; enter into any closing agreement; settle or compromise any Tax claim or assessment; or consent to any extension or waiver of the limitation period applicable to any claim or assessment with respect to Taxes, in each case related solely to the Purchased Assets; and (o) will not enter into any agreement or commitment with respect to any of the foregoing. 5.3. Tax Reporting and Allocation of Consideration.

-55- (a) Seller and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (i) Seller will be responsible for and will perform all required Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Seller or a Subsidiary to any Business Employee in connection with the operation or conduct of the Target Business for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and any Tax withholding, payment and reporting related to payments made by Seller or a Subsidiary to any Transferred Employee under a Benefit Plan of Seller or a Subsidiary with respect to any Post-Closing Tax Period, and (ii) Buyer will be responsible for and will perform all required Tax withholding, payment and reporting duties with respect to any wages and other compensation paid by Buyer or a Buyer Designee to any Transferred Employee with respect to any Post-Closing Tax Period. If permitted under Revenue Procedure 2004-53, after the Closing, Buyer and Seller agree to use the standard procedure set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to the Transferred Employees. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph is intended to modify or adjust the substantive liability of Buyer and Seller under this Agreement with respect to the Taxes described in this paragraph. (b) Not later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller an allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets and the covenant not to compete contained in Section 5.14 of this Agreement in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (and any similar provision of state, local or foreign law, as applicable) and methodologies set forth on Schedule 5.3(b) (the “Asset Level Allocation Statement”). If within thirty (30) days of receiving the Asset Level Allocation Statement, Seller has not objected, the Asset Level Allocation Statement shall be final and binding and the Parties shall file their Returns consistently therewith. If within thirty (30) days Seller objects to the Asset Level Allocation Statement, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith to resolve their differences, provided that if after thirty (30) days, Seller and Buyer are unable to agree, the Parties shall retain a mutually acceptable, regionally recognized, independent accounting firm or other mutually acceptable, regionally recognized financial services provider (the “Independent Accounting Firm”) to resolve their dispute, provided that the Independent Accounting Firm utilize the methodologies for determining fair market value as set forth on Schedule 5.3(b). The determination of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be final and binding on the Parties. The Parties shall make appropriate adjustments to the Asset Level Allocation Statement to reflect the determination of the Independent Accounting Firm. The Parties agree that they will not, and will not permit any of their respective Affiliates to, take a position (except as required pursuant to any order of a Governmental Body) on any Return that is inconsistent with the final Asset Level Allocation Statement (the final Asset Level Allocation Statement being referred to herein as the “Allocation”). (c) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing upon receipt by Seller of notice of any pending or threatened Tax audits or assessments relating to the income, properties or operations of Seller that reasonably may be expected to relate to or give rise to a lien on the Purchased Assets or the Target Business. 5.4. Business Employees.

-56- (a) Buyer or any Buyer Designee shall make offers of employment, which shall be contingent on the Closing for offers made prior to the Closing, to the Business Employees who are active Business Employees on the Closing Date (including anyone absent due to vacation, holiday, bereavement, jury duty leave or any similar short-term absence that does not affect the Business Employee’s status as an active employee, but not including any Inactive Employee). With respect to each Business Employee who is on a leave of absence, short-term or long-term disability leave, medical leave, military leave or any similar leave (an “Inactive Employee”) who returns to work within the later of 180 days after the Closing Date, as the case may be, or such longer period as may be required by applicable Law, Buyer or a Buyer Designee will make an offer of employment to such Inactive Employee with such offer to be on terms and conditions consistent with this Section 5.4. Seller shall not be liable for Buyer’s or Buyer Designee’s failure to offer employment or the timing of any offer of employment to any such Inactive Employee, unless such failure is due to the negligence or willful failure of Seller. Buyer’s or Buyer Designee’s offer of employment to each Business Employee shall provide for employee benefits under the plans and arrangements provided by Buyer or a Buyer Designee to its similarly situated employees unless Buyer or a Buyer Designee is required by applicable Law to assume or replicate any Business Employee Plan or any benefit provided thereunder, in which case Buyer or Buyer Designee shall provide such required benefits. Seller and any applicable Subsidiary shall cooperate and assist in facilitating Buyer’s or a Buyer Designee’s offers and will not take any action, or cause any of the Subsidiaries to take any action, which would impede, hinder, interfere or otherwise compete with Buyer’s or a Buyer Designee’s effort to hire any Business Employee. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party shall comply with all applicable Law in connection with the transfer of the Business Employees to Buyer or a Buyer Designee, including with respect to notice and other procedural requirements. Seller and its applicable Subsidiaries will provide any and all information reasonably required by Buyer or a Buyer Designee in order for Buyer to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Business Employees. The Parties will enter into appropriate documentation for relevant jurisdictions outside the United States where necessary or appropriate for the transfer (or employment, where transfer is not available under applicable Law) by Buyer or a Buyer Designee of any Business Employees. Each Business Employee who accepts Buyer’s or a Buyer Designee’s offer of employment and commences employment with Buyer or a Buyer Designee shall, as of the effective date of their employment with Buyer or a Buyer Designee, be referred to as a “Transferred Employee.” Employment of Transferred Employees with Buyer or a Buyer Designee shall be effective as of the Closing Effective Time, except that the employment of Transferred Employees in a jurisdiction with a delayed closing and employment of an Inactive Employee who becomes employed by Buyer or a Buyer Designee after the Closing Effective Time will become effective as of the date they present themselves for work with Buyer or a Buyer Designee or such other date as is prescribed by applicable Law or an agreement between Seller and Buyer (or its respective designee), and such individual shall be deemed to be a Transferred Employee as of such date, and for purposes of this Agreement, such date shall be substituted for the terms “Closing”, “Closing Date” and “Closing Effective Time”, respectively, except where the context otherwise requires.

-57- (b) Buyer shall recognize each Transferred Employee’s service with Seller or a Subsidiary prior to the Closing for purposes of determining eligibility to participate and vesting in each employee benefit plan of Buyer or a Buyer Designee, including but not limited to any vacation plans and severance plans, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, provided that such service shall not be recognized to the extent such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or would not be allowed by the applicable employee benefit plan of Buyer or a Buyer Designee, as applicable. (c) Effective as of the Closing, Seller or the applicable Subsidiary will terminate the employment of any Business Employee who is offered employment in accordance with Section 5.4(a) above and rejects such offer of employment with Buyer or a Buyer Designee, unless applicable Law restricts or penalizes such termination and Seller or a Subsidiary is able to reassign such employee to another position. (d) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.4(d), Transferred Employees will not be eligible for any severance benefits under the terms of any Benefit Plan. (e) The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to determine whether any notification may be required under the WARN Act as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller will be responsible for providing any notification that may be required under the WARN Act with respect to any of its employees terminated on or prior to Closing. Buyer will be responsible for providing any notification that may be required under the WARN Act with respect to any Transferred Employees terminated after the Closing Date. In addition, Seller shall, at its own expense, give all notices and other information required to be given by Seller to the Business Employees pursuant to COBRA, if any, in connection with the execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be solely responsible for providing continuation coverage under COBRA. (f) No provision of this Section 5.4 shall create any Third Party beneficiary or other rights in any Business Employee or former employee in respect of continued or resumed employment in Seller’s business, or with Buyer, and no provision of this Section 5.4 shall create any rights in any such persons in respect of any benefits that may be provided under any plan or arrangement which may be established by Buyer. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring, and Seller, Buyer and their Affiliates shall take no action that would have the effect of requiring, Seller, Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates to continue any specific Benefit Plan. The provisions of this Section 5.4 are for the sole benefit of Seller and Buyer and nothing in this Section 5.4, expressed or implied, is intended or shall be construed to constitute an amendment of any Benefit Plan or any similar benefit plan of Buyer (or an undertaking to amend any such plan) or other compensation and benefits plan maintained for or provided to Business Employees, including Transferred Employees, prior to, on or following the Closing. (g) To the extent to which a Transferred Employee would be in breach of any obligation owed to Seller or one of its Affiliates by reason of becoming employed by Buyer or a Buyer Designee (for example, a noncompete obligation), Seller and its Affiliates will waive such obligation.

-58- (h) Subject to applicable Law, nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer or a Buyer Designee to employ any Business Employees, or any Transferred Employee on anything other than an at-will basis, terminable at any time with or without cause (in jurisdictions where such a concept is recognized). (i) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer with the transfer of visas or work permits related to the Transferred Employees. 5.5. [Intentionally Deleted.] 5.6. Leased Equipment. Promptly after the date hereof, but in no event later than twenty (20) days prior to Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with a copy or each lease in connection with the Leased Equipment, which shall include the costs and other terms applicable to the Leased Equipment. Buyer shall decide (in its sole discretion) whether such Leased Equipment will (a) transfer to Buyer or a Buyer Designee as of the Closing Date by Buyer or a Buyer Designee assuming the leases for such equipment, (b) become the property of Buyer or a Buyer Designee as of the Closing Date by Buyer or a Buyer Designee paying for the costs of purchasing such equipment pursuant to the leases (the “Purchased Leased Equipment”), or (c) remain the property of Seller or a Subsidiary as of the Closing Date (the “Excluded Leased Equipment”). 5.7. Cooperation; Efforts to Consummate. (a) Subject to Section 5.7(b), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Parties agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to accomplish the following: (i) the taking of all acts reasonably necessary to cause the conditions to Closing to be satisfied as promptly as practicable; (ii) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental Bodies and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Bodies, if any); (iii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from Third Parties; and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements. Notwithstanding, this Section 5.7 shall not require Seller to make any registrations or filings related to the Business Products under the European Union Medical Device Regulations. (b) Notwithstanding any to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Section 5.7 shall require, or be construed to require, Buyer or any of its Affiliates to agree to (i) sell, hold, divest, discontinue or limit, before or after the Closing Date, any assets, businesses or interests of Buyer any of its Affiliates; (ii) any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses or interests which, in either case, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or materially and adversely impact the economic or business benefits to Buyer of the

-59- transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Collateral Agreements; or (iii) any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 5.8. Regulatory Compliance. (a) In addition to and without limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 5.2, and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Section 5.8) (including Section Error! Reference source not found.), Buyer and Seller shall cooperate with each other and use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use) their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions necessary or advisable on its part under this Agreement and applicable Law to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and in any event prior to the Termination Date, including preparing and delivering or submitting documentation to (i) effect the expirations of all statutory waiting periods under applicable Antitrust Law, as promptly as practicable and (ii) make with and obtain from, any Governmental Body all filings, notices, reports, consents, registrations, approvals, permits and authorizations, in each case, necessary or advisable in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Regulatory Approvals. [* * *] (b) In furtherance of the provisions of Section 5.8, each of Buyer and Seller, as applicable, shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to): (i) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, all filings which may be required by each of them under the HSR Act and any other similar applicable Antitrust Law as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of this Agreement, and make, deliver or submit, as applicable, all other initial filings, notices, and reports (or where applicable, drafts thereof) with respect to the Regulatory Approvals, in each case as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event no later than thirty (30) Business Days after the date of this Agreement unless mutually agreed otherwise (and each Party’s consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), and provide each other with final copies of any such filings and requests with respect to the Regulatory Approvals; (ii) provide or cause to be provided to each Governmental Body any non-privileged information and documents requested by any Governmental Body or that are necessary or advisable to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable following any such request or otherwise following the date hereof, and each shall provide each other with copies of any such information and documents; and (iii) contest or defend through litigation any actual, anticipated or threatened order, lawsuit or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or seeking to enjoin, restrain, prevent, prohibit, or make illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this

-60- Agreement, including using reasonable best efforts to have any adverse decision, stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Body vacated, lifted or reversed. (c) [* * *] (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall not, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries not to, (i) agree to stay, toll or extend the waiting period under the HSR Act or other filing or notice pursuant to any other applicable Antitrust Law, (ii) withdraw any filing or notice made pursuant to the HSR Act or other filing or notice pursuant to any other applicable Antitrust Law or (iii) enter into any timing or similar agreements with any Governmental Body to delay, or otherwise not to consummate as soon as reasonably practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of Buyer or Seller, as applicable, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall not be unreasonable to withhold such consent if any such action or agreement would cause Closing to occur later than the Termination Date. (e) Cooperation. Separate and apart from and without limiting or expanding the rights and obligations set forth in Section 5.2, Buyer and Seller shall work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all consents, registrations, approvals, permits, and authorizations, in each case, necessary or advisable in order to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Regulatory Approvals. Buyer and Seller shall have the right to review in advance and, to the extent reasonably practicable, each shall consult with the other on, and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, all the information relating to Buyer and Seller, as the case may be, any of their respective Subsidiaries and any of its or their respective Representatives, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials delivered or submitted to, any Governmental Body in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall, nor shall either permit any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Representatives to, participate in any discussion, teleconference, videoconference, or meeting with any Governmental Body in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement unless (to the extent reasonably practicable) it consults with the other in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Body, gives the other the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. (f) Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire (including by merger, consolidation or acquisition of stock or assets or any other means) or publicly announce an intention to so acquire, or enter into any definitive agreements, providing for any acquisitions of, any equity interests in or a material portion of the assets of any Person (or any business or division thereof) to the extent any such acquisition would reasonably be expected (and actually does) cause material additional substantive review of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust Law which prevents the conditions set forth in Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(b) from being satisfied prior to the Termination Date.

-61- 5.9. Contacts with Suppliers, Customers, and Distributors. In contemplation of the Closing and conditioned upon receiving Regulatory Approval under the HSR Act, Seller shall permit Buyer to discuss and meet, and shall reasonably cooperate in such discussions and meetings, with any customer, supplier, or distributor of the Target Business that Buyer so requests, including any party to a Shared Contract. Buyer shall notify Seller of any discussions or meetings with any customer, supplier, or distributor of the Target Business. Upon Seller’s request, Buyer shall determine (in its sole discretion) whether a representative of Seller or a Subsidiary may accompany Buyer’s representative to such meetings and participate with Buyer’s representative in such discussions. In addition, Seller and Buyer will prepare a communications plan for business partners of the Target Business, and agree on a plan to contact any suppliers to, or customers of, the Target Business in connection with or pertaining to any subject matter of this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements and to facilitate the transition of the Target Business, including the preparation of letters to all customers, suppliers, distributors and other business partners of the Target Business to notify them of the Closing and provide information regarding the transition of the Target Business to Buyer. Seller will be responsible for contacting parties to any Transferred Contracts for which consent is required in connection with their assignment pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not affect Seller’s continuing right to contact customers and suppliers in connection with the operation or conduct of the Target Business or performance under the Transition Services Agreement, or any of the retained businesses, nor Buyer’s continuing right to contact customers and suppliers in connection with the operation or conduct of its current business. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.9 shall limit Buyer’s right to respond to inquiries from any customer, supplier, or distributor of the Target Business that initiates contact with Buyer. 5.10. Use of the Seller Name. (a) Buyer and Seller agree as follows: (i) Except as provided in the Transition Services Agreement, Intellectual Property License Agreement, and Trademark License Agreement, after the Closing Date, Buyer and any Buyer Designee shall cease using Seller’s and its Subsidiaries’ Trade names and trademarks except as set forth on Schedule 5.10(a) (the “Seller Name”) in all invoices, letterhead, advertising and promotional materials, office forms or business cards; (ii) Except as provided below or in the Intellectual property License Agreement, Transition Services Agreement, after the Closing Date, Buyer shall (A) remove the Seller Name or from all labels and packaging of Purchased Assets; and (B) cease using the Seller Name in electronic databases, web sites, product instructions, packaging and other materials, printed or otherwise; (iii) Buyer and Buyer Designees shall not be required at any time to remove the Seller Name from (A) Inventory of the Target Business that is in existence as of the Closing Date or that is manufactured by Seller pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement following the Closing Date, (B) schematics, plans, manuals, drawings, machinery, datasheets, tooling (including hand tools), Business Records, and the like of the Target Business to the extent that such instrumentalities

-62- are used in the ordinary operation or conduct of the Target Business and are not broadly disseminated as advertisements to the public for use as means to effectuate or enhance sales or (C) with respect to the Business Products, tangible parts and tangible components of such Business Products whose branding is not visible to end consumers in the ordinary course of use; (iv) Except as provided elsewhere in this Section 5.10 or in the Intellectual Property License Agreement or Transition Services Agreement, upon transfer to Buyer, Buyer and Buyer Designees shall use Reasonable Efforts to remove the Seller Name from those Purchased Assets (such as, but not limited to, tools, and machines) used in association with the Business Products or otherwise reasonably used in the operation or conduct of the Target Business after the Closing. For the purposes of this Section 5.10(a)(iv), “Reasonable Efforts” means Buyer and Buyer Designees shall remove the Seller Name from Purchased Assets but only at such time when such asset is not operated or otherwise is taken out of service in the normal course of business due to regular maintenance or repair (but only for such repairs or maintenance where such removal could normally be undertaken, for example, repair or maintenance of a mold cavity) whichever occurs first; provided that, Buyer or any Buyer Designee shall not use the Seller Name after the date which is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date, except as provided elsewhere in this Section 5.10 or as licensed in the Intellectual Property License Agreement or Transition Services Agreement. Buyer and Buyer Designees shall not be required to perform such removal to the extent set forth in Section 5.10(a)(iii) or on such assets that are not or are no longer used to manufacture the Business Products or other parts, or if discontinuance of use of such assets is reasonably anticipated during such time period, or from assets stored during that period provided that such marks are removed upon such asset’s return to service or prior to their sale or other disposition; (v) Seller hereby grants to Buyer and Buyer Designees a limited right to use the Seller Name as specified in, and during the periods, if any, specified in clauses (i) – (iii) above; and (vi) Buyer and its Affiliates shall also have the right to use (in a factual manner that constitutes fair use pursuant to applicable Law) the Seller Name solely to the extent necessary to communicate that the Business Products were formerly owned by Seller. (b) Subject to the Transition Services Agreement, after the Closing, Seller and its Affiliates shall cease any and all use of any Trademark included in the Assigned Trademarks, and any confusingly similar mark. 5.11. Transition of Manufacturing Equipment. The Parties acknowledge and agree that certain equipment within the Purchased Assets that is used to Manufacture the Business Products will be retained by Seller in order to fulfil its obligations under the Transition Services Agreement to Manufacture Business Products on behalf of Buyer. The Parties shall work together in good faith to create a mutually agreeable transition plan for such Manufacturing equipment,

-63- provided, however, in no event shall Seller be required to purchase Manufacturing equipment that exists as part of the Purchased Assets in order to fulfill its obligations under the Transition Services Agreement. Further, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall be responsible for the cost of all freight and crating for the transfer of all Principal Equipment with a carrier of Buyer’s choice and shall bear the risk of loss related of such Principal Equipment FOB shipping Seller’s facility. Buyer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to inspect and direct the crating of all Principal Equipment. 5.12. Non-Solicitation. (a) None of Seller, any of its Representatives or any of its Affiliates will at any time prior to the date that is two (2) years following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of, hire or employ any Transferred Employee without Buyer’s prior written consent. The term “solicit the employment” shall not be deemed to include generalized searches for employees through media advertisements, employment firms or otherwise that are not focused on or directed to Transferred Employees, and Seller’s subsequent engagement with a Transferred Employee as a result of such Transferred Employee’s voluntary response to the same shall not be a breach of this Section 5.12(a). This restriction set forth in this Section 5.12(a) shall not apply to any Transferred Employee whose employment was involuntarily terminated by Buyer, a Buyer Designee, or their respective successors or assigns, after the Closing. (b) None of Buyer, any of its Representatives or any of its Affiliates will at any time during the term of the Transition Services Agreement and for two (2) years following the expiration or termination of the Transition Services Agreement, directly or indirectly, solicit the employment of any of Seller’s retained employees who provided services related to Manufacturing, engineering, regulatory, quality, or other similar or related activities under the Transition Services Agreement without Seller’s prior written consent. The term “solicit the employment” shall not be deemed to include generalized searches for employees through media advertisements, employment firms or otherwise that are not focused on or directed to Seller’s retained employees as set forth above, and Buyer’s subsequent engagement with a Seller retained employee as a result of such Seller retained employee’s voluntary response to the same shall not be a breach of this Section 5.12(b). 5.13. No Negotiation or Solicitation. Prior to the Closing Date, Seller and its Affiliates will not (and Seller will cause each of its employees, officers, Representatives and agents or advisors not to and shall cause its Affiliates to cause employees, officers, Representatives and agents or advisors not to) directly or indirectly (a) solicit, initiate, entertain, encourage or accept the submission of any proposal, offer or any discussions relating to or that might reasonably be expected to lead to or result in any proposal or offer from any Person relating to the direct or indirect acquisition of the Target Business or any portion of the Purchased Assets (other than purchases of Business Products or services from the Target Business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), or (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding the Target Business, furnish any information with respect thereto, or assist or participate in, or facilitate or encourage in any other manner any effort or attempt by any Person to do or seek any of the foregoing. Seller will notify Buyer if any Person makes any proposal, offer, inquiry or contact with respect to any of the foregoing promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business

-64- Days) after receipt of any such offer or proposal, including the identity of the Person making such proposal, offer, inquiry or contact and all material terms thereof. 5.14. Non-Competition. (a) Seller agrees that, as part of the consideration for the payment of the Purchase Price, for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates will, directly or indirectly, as a principal, stockholder, joint venturer or otherwise, (i) operate, perform or have any ownership interest in any business that designs, develops, manufactures, markets, sells or distributes products that directly and intentionally compete with the Target Business or (ii) except in connection with patent cross-licenses and other patent licenses entered into by Seller or an Affiliate in connection with patent licensing activities, sales of products or settlement of litigation, in each case in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, Seller shall not knowingly grant any license to the Licensed Intellectual Property for the purpose of enabling a Third Party to compete with the Target Business, except that Seller may purchase or otherwise acquire by merger, purchase of assets, stock (including investing as a minority shareholder), controlling interest or otherwise any Person or business or engage in any similar merger and acquisition activity with any Person the primary business of which is not in competition with the Target Business. For the purposes of this Section 5.14(a), ownership of securities of a company whose securities are publicly traded on a recognized securities exchange not in excess of five percent (5%) of any class of such securities shall not be considered to be competition with the Target Business, and a Person shall not be considered to be in the “primary business” of competing with the Target Business if such Person derives less than five percent (5%) of its revenues from products that compete with the Target Business. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that the agreements and limitations set forth in this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any entity that acquires all or part of Seller or any of its Affiliates in any transaction. (b) Seller acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in Section 5.14(a) constitute a material inducement to Buyer’s entering into and performing this Agreement. Seller further acknowledges, stipulates and agrees that a breach of such obligation could result in irreparable harm and continuing damage to Buyer for which there may be no adequate remedy at Law and further agrees that in the event of any breach of said obligation, Buyer may be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other relief as is proper under the circumstances. (c) If any provision contained in this Section shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 5.14, but this Section 5.14 shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. It is the intention of the Parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 5.14 to

-65- provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law. 5.15. Post-Closing Remittances. Subject to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, if on or after the Closing Date, either Party receives a payment from a Third Party (including a customer of the Target Business) that, pursuant to the terms hereof, should have been paid to the other Party, the Party who receives the payment agrees to hold in trust and remit such payment to the Party entitled thereto within ten (10) Business Days of such receipt. 5.16. R&W Insurance Policy. Following the date hereof, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the R&W Insurance Policy in full force and effect for the policy period set forth therein (provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not be interpreted to in any way limit Buyer’s right to control all decisions with respect to any claims or potential claims under the R&W Insurance Policy, including the handling and recovery with respect to such claims and potential claims). Buyer and Seller shall each be responsible for and shall pay fifty percent (50%) of the R&W Insurance Policy Premium and any related fees or underwriting costs. 5.17. German Works Council Consultation. Seller (directly or indirectly through the German Subsidiary) shall be responsible for initiating and conducting the German Works Council Consultation in a timely and appropriate manner, which shall be initiated no later than the date hereof. Seller shall inform Buyer on a regular basis on the status of the German Works Council Consultation. Upon Seller’s reasonable request, Buyer will cooperate with Seller or the German Subsidiary in good faith to conduct and complete the German Works Council Consultation. Seller shall indemnify Buyer or Buyer Designee against any direct or indirect costs, losses and expenses, suffered or incurred under, or due to, any agreements or arrangements entered into in connection with the German Works Council Consultation, in particular under any social plan concluded in connection with the German Works Council Consultation or any other works council agreement (Betriebsvereinbarung) or any collective bargaining agreement (Tarifvertrag) applicable to the German Business Employees entered into by Seller or the German Subsidiary after the date hereof. The preceding indemnification obligations do not apply to direct or indirect costs, losses and expenses resulting from an exclusion of the German Purchased Assets from the Closing pursuant to Section 7.4(b). 5.18. Shared Contracts. As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing, Seller shall make available to Buyer complete and correct copies of the Shared Contracts among Seller or its Affiliates and their customers which are based in the United States, which may include reasonable redactions of confidential and proprietary information not related to the Target Business, and that otherwise contains information that is expressly protected under Data Protection Laws. Seller shall make available to Buyer complete and correct copies of all other Shared Contracts, which may include reasonable redactions of confidential and proprietary information not related to the Target Business, and that otherwise contains information that is expressly protected under Data Protection Laws, on or prior to the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the name and contact information of each party to the Shared Contract, and (ii) the economic terms (price, rebates, GPO

-66- fee, etc.) of the Shared Contract relating to the Business Products shall not be redacted from such Shared Contracts. 6. Confidential Nature of Information. 6.1. Confidentiality Agreement. Buyer agrees that the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to (i) all documents, materials and other information that it shall have obtained regarding Seller or its Affiliates during the course of the negotiations leading to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (whether obtained before or after the date of this Agreement), any investigations made in connection therewith and the preparation of this Agreement and related documents and (ii) all analyses, reports, compilations, evaluations and other materials prepared by Buyer or its counsel, accountants or financial advisors to the extent that they contain or otherwise reflect or are based upon, in whole or in part, any of the provided information; provided, however, the Confidentiality Agreement shall be of no further force and effect with respect to information of Seller or its Affiliates the ownership of which is transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee at the Closing. 6.2. Seller’s Proprietary Information. (a) Except as provided in Section 6.2(b) and as may be permitted by the Transition Services Agreement or the Intellectual Property License Agreement, from and after the Closing and for a period of seven (7) years following the Closing Date, Buyer agrees that it will keep confidential all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ Information that is received from, or made available by, Seller in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby, and marked or identified at the time of disclosure as the proprietary or confidential information of Seller (“Seller Proprietary Information”), including, for purposes of this Section 6.2, information about business plans and strategies, marketing ideas and concepts, especially with respect to unannounced products and services, present and future product plans, pricing, volume estimates, financial data, product enhancement information, business plans, marketing plans, sales strategies, customer information (including customers’ applications and environments), market testing information, development plans, specifications, customer requirements, configurations, designs, plans, drawings, apparatus, sketches, software, hardware, data, prototypes, connecting requirements or other technical and business information, but excluding any Seller Proprietary Information the ownership of which is transferred to Buyer or a Buyer Designee at the Closing as part of the Purchased Assets. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Seller Proprietary Information shall not be deemed confidential and Buyer shall have no obligation with respect to any such Seller Proprietary Information that: (i) at the time of disclosure was already known to Buyer other than as a result of this transaction, free of restriction as evidenced by documentation in Buyer’s possession; (ii) is or becomes publicly known through publication, inspection of a product, or otherwise, and through no negligence or other wrongful act of Buyer;

-67- (iii) is received by Buyer from a Third Party without restriction and without breach of any agreement; (iv) to the extent it is independently developed by Buyer as demonstrated by competent evidence; or (v) is, subject to Section 6.2(c), required to be disclosed under applicable Law or judicial process. (c) If Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) is required by applicable Law (for example, by oral or written interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other similar legal processes) to disclose any Seller Proprietary Information to a Third Party, Buyer will promptly notify Seller of such request or requirement and will cooperate with Seller, at Seller’s cost and expense, in any Seller efforts to seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy to prevent or limit the disclosure of such Seller Proprietary Information. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) is required by applicable Law (for example, by oral or written interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other similar processes) to disclose Seller Proprietary Information, Buyer (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of Seller Proprietary Information to the Third Party compelling disclosure as is so required; and such Seller Proprietary Information shall retain its confidentiality protections for all purposes other than the compelled disclosure. 6.3. Buyer’s Proprietary Information. (a) Except as provided in Section 6.3(b), from and after the Closing Date and for a period of seven (7) years thereafter, Seller agrees that it will keep confidential all of (i) Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ Information that is received from, or made available by, Buyer in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby and marked or identified at the time of disclosure as the proprietary or confidential information of Buyer, and (ii) all of the assigned Trade Secrets and other confidential information that is part of the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities (collectively, “Buyer Proprietary Information”), including, for purposes of this Section 6.2, information about business plans and strategies, marketing ideas and concepts, especially with respect to unannounced products and services, present and future product plans, pricing, volume estimates, financial data, product enhancement information, business plans, marketing plans, sales strategies, customer information (including customers’ applications and environments), market testing information, development plans, specifications, customer requirements, configurations, designs, plans, drawings, apparatus, sketches, software, hardware, data, prototypes, connecting requirements, other technical and business information and information regarding Business Employees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything herein to the contrary, subject to Section 6.3(b) Seller shall maintain all assigned Trade Secrets as Trade Secrets indefinitely, using the same reasonable care and discretion as Seller used for such information prior to Closing and with respect to Seller’s own similar Trade Secrets of like importance (but subject to, for the avoidance of doubt, the exceptions set forth in Section 6.3(b) and (c)).

-68- (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Buyer Proprietary Information regarding the Target Business shall not be deemed confidential and Seller shall have no obligation with respect to any such Buyer Proprietary Information that: (i) is or becomes publicly known through publication, inspection of a product, or otherwise, and through no negligence or other wrongful act of Seller; or (ii) is received by Seller after the Closing Date from a Third Party without restriction and without breach of any agreement. (c) If Seller (or any of its Affiliates) is required by applicable Law (for example, by oral or written interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other similar legal processes) to disclose any Buyer Proprietary Information to a Third Party, Seller will promptly notify Buyer of such request or requirement and will cooperate with Buyer, at Buyer’s cost and expense, in any Buyer efforts to seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy to prevent or limit the disclosure of such Buyer Proprietary Information. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Seller (or any of its Affiliates) is required by applicable Law (for example, by oral or written interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other similar legal processes) to disclose the Buyer Proprietary Information, Seller (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Buyer Proprietary Information to the Third Party compelling disclosure as is so required; and such Buyer Proprietary Information shall retain its confidentiality protections for all purposes other than the compelled disclosure. 6.4. Confidential Nature of Agreements. Except to the extent that disclosure thereof is required under applicable Law (including accounting, stock exchange or federal securities or labor relations Laws regarding disclosure obligations or pursuant to legal process (such as oral or written interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or other similar legal processes)), both Parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Collateral Agreements and all Schedules, attachments and amendments hereto and thereto shall be considered confidential or proprietary information protected under this Article 6. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 6 to the contrary, in the event that any such Information is also subject to a limitation on disclosure or use contained in another written agreement between Buyer and Seller or either of their respective Affiliates that is more restrictive than the limitation contained in this Article 6, then the limitation in such agreement shall supersede this Article 6. 6.5. Covenant to Enforce. To the extent Seller has disclosed any proprietary or confidential information related to the Purchased Assets or the Target Business to any Third Party and such proprietary or confidential information is subject to a confidentiality agreement, non-disclosure agreement or other similar agreement, upon becoming aware of the disclosure, or any action or inaction that would be reasonably expected to result in the disclosure, of such proprietary or confidential information in violation of any such confidentiality agreement, non-disclosure agreement, or other similar agreement, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to enforce Seller’s rights with respect to such confidentiality agreements, non-disclosure agreements or other similar agreements so as to prevent such Third Party from using or disclosing any such

-69- proprietary or confidential information and Buyer shall reimburse Seller for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses approved by Buyer in writing that are actually incurred by Seller in enforcing such rights. 7. Closing. At the Closing, the following transactions shall take place: 7.1. Deliveries by Seller or the Subsidiaries. On the Closing Date, Seller shall, or shall cause an Affiliate to, execute and deliver to Buyer or a Buyer Designee the following: (a) the Collateral Agreements; (b) a certificate of an appropriate officer of Seller, dated the Closing Date, certifying the fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.2(a) and 8.2(b), and an incumbency certificate of the corporate Secretary of Seller, dated the Closing Date, in customary form; (c) such forms and certificates as Buyer may request pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1445.2(b), including an IRS Form W-9 of Seller and each Subsidiary that sells Purchased Assets under this Agreement; and (d) all such other bills of sale, assignments and other instruments of assignment, transfer or conveyance as Buyer or a Buyer Designee may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary to evidence and effect the sale, transfer, assignment, conveyance and delivery of the Purchased Assets to Buyer or a Buyer Designee or to put Buyer or a Buyer Designee in actual possession or control of the Purchased Assets; provided that all information (including documents) capable of electronic transmission will be transmitted to Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee in such manner, in which case such information shall not be transferred in any tangible form, and any inadvertent transfer of a tangible manifestation of such information shall promptly be returned to Seller or the applicable Subsidiary upon discovery of Buyer’s or such Buyer Designee’s receipt thereof. 7.2. Deliveries by Buyer or a Buyer Designee. On the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause a Buyer Designee to, execute and deliver to Seller or a Subsidiary the following: (a) the Closing Payment, pursuant to Section 2.10; (b) the Collateral Agreements; (c) a certificate of an appropriate officer of Buyer, dated the Closing Date, certifying the fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.3(a) and 8.3(b), and an incumbency certificate of an appropriate officer of Buyer, dated the Closing Date, in customary form; and (d) all such documents and instruments as Seller or a Subsidiary may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary to evidence and effect evidence and effect the assumption by Buyer or a Buyer Designee of the Assumed Liabilities.

-70- 7.3. Transfer of Italian Business. On the Closing Date, the Parties shall accomplish all the formalities for the transfer of the Italian Business from Seller or a Subsidiary to Buyer or Buyer Designee, including by entering into the Notarial Deed before the Notary Public, it being understood that such Notarial Deed shall not novate, modify or amend in any manner whatsoever the provisions of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect. 7.4. Transfer of German Assets. (a) Seller and Buyer are aware that the German Subsidiary is obligated to complete the reconciliation of interests (Interessenausgleich) procedure under Sec. 111, 112 of the German Works Constitution Act (Betriebsverfassungsgesetz, BetrVG) with its works council as regards the split of operation (Betriebsspaltung) resulting from the transfer of Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities currently owned by the German Subsidiary and the transfer of German Business Employees to Buyer or Buyer Designee (the “German Works Council Consultation”). The German Works Council Consultation shall be deemed to have been completed if and as soon as a reconciliation of interests agreement has been reached with the German works council as regards the respective split of operation (Betriebsspaltung) resulting from the transfer of the German Business Employees or, as the case may be, the relevant negotiations have finally failed in an arbitration procedure (Einigungsstellenverfahren) in the meaning of Sec. 112 of the German Works Constitution Act (Betriebsverfassungsgesetz, BetrVG). (b) In the event that the German Works Council Consultation has not been completed, but all conditions to this Agreement are satisfied (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or waived (where permissible pursuant to applicable Law), the Parties shall proceed with the Closing, but shall exclude the German Purchased Assets from the Closing and work together in good faith to provide for a separate Closing (the “Separate Closing”) related to the transfer of the German Purchased Assets. In the event Separate Closing is required, the Closing shall occur in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, otherwise unchanged, provided, however the transfer of the German Purchased Assets shall be excluded from the Closing. Seller and Buyer shall work together in good faith to carry out the Separate Closing within five (5) Business Days following the receipt of a legally binding conclusion of the procedure for the participation of the German works council related to Seller’s German Subsidiary. Until the Separate Closing is completed, the German Purchased Assets shall be held for the benefit of Buyer and the operation of the Target Business in Germany shall be conducted on behalf, and at the direction of, Buyer (where permissible pursuant to applicable Law). 7.5. Closing Date. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the appropriate party of all the conditions precedent to Closing specified in Article 8 hereof (other than those conditions which can only be satisfied on the Closing Date, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted hereunder) of such conditions), the consummation of the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets and the other transactions contemplated by and described in this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur on the last day of the calendar month in which the conditions set forth in Article 8 have been satisfied or waived at least five (5) Business Days prior to such last day or on such other date mutually agreed to by the Parties (such date, the “Closing Date”). The Parties shall

-71- use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Article 8 to be satisfied. In lieu of an in-person Closing, the Closing may instead be accomplished by facsimile or email (in PDF format) transmission to the respective offices of legal counsel for the parties of the requisite documents, duly executed where required. 7.6. Closing Effective Time and Contemporaneous Effectiveness. The Closing shall be deemed to take place and be effective as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on the Closing Date (the “Closing Effective Time”). The Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all proceedings at the Closing shall be deemed to be taken and all documents to be executed and delivered by all parties at the Closing shall be deemed to have been taken and executed simultaneously, and no proceedings shall be deemed taken nor any document executed or delivered until all have been taken, executed and delivered. 8.

The respective obligations of Buyer and Seller to consummate the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby are subject to the fulfillment, prior to or at the Closing, of each of the following conditions: (a) Legal Proceedings.

(b) Antitrust Laws. Any applicable waiting periods under applicable Antitrust Laws (and any extensions, thereof, including through a timing or other agreement) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements have been expired or been terminated, and any approvals of a Governmental Body under applicable Antitrust Laws, respectively, relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements shall have been received (collectively, the “Regulatory Approvals”). 8.2.

The obligations of Buyer to consummate the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby are subject to the fulfillment, prior to or at the Closing, of each of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in writing by Buyer: (a) Representations and Warranties of Seller True and Correct at Closing. The representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement that are qualified by the words “material,” “Seller Material Adverse Effect” and similar phrases shall be true and correct in all respects at and as of the date of this Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are made as of a specified date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects as

-72- of the specified date, and the representations and warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule, certificate or document delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the date of this Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are made as of a specified date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the specified date.

Seller and/or the applicable Subsidiary shall have delivered all of the documents required under Section 7.1 and shall have otherwise performed in all material respects all obligations and agreements and complied in all material respects with all covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it prior to or at the Closing, including executing the Collateral Agreements.

Seller shall have delivered documentation reasonably acceptable to Buyer evidencing the full and unconditional release of any Encumbrance on the Purchased Intellectual Property. (f) Regulatory Approvals. The Regulatory Approvals shall have been obtained. 8.3. Conditions Precedent to Seller’s Obligations. The obligations of Seller to effect the Closing of the transactions contemplated hereby are subject to the fulfillment, prior to or at the Closing, of each of the following conditions, any of which may be waived in writing by Seller: (a) Representations and Warranties of Buyer True and Correct at Closing. The representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement that are qualified by the words “material,” “material adverse effect” and similar phrases shall be true and correct in all respects at and as of the date of this Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties were made at and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties are made as of a specified date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects as of the specified date, and the representations and warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule, certificate or document delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the date of this Agreement and at and as of the Closing Date as though such representations and warranties were made at and as

(b) Performance by Buyer. Buyer and/or the applicable Buyer Designee shall have delivered all of the documents required under Section 7.2 and shall have otherwise performed in all material respects all obligations and agreements and complied in all material respects with all covenants required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it prior to or at the Closing, including executing the Collateral Agreements. 9. Indemnification. 9.1. Survival. The Parties, intending to modify any applicable statute of limitations, agree that (a) none of the representations and warranties or covenants and agreements (to the extent such covenants and agreements relate to the performance of obligations prior to the Closing) contained in this Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement shall survive Closing and all such provisions shall terminate at Closing and (b) after Closing there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of, nor shall any claim be made by, any Party or any of their respective Affiliates in respect of or relating to the representations and warranties or covenants and agreements (to the extent such covenants and agreements relate to the performance of obligations prior to the Closing) contained in this Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement. This Section 9.1 does not limit (x) any covenants and agreements of the Parties to this Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement that by their terms require performance of obligations after Closing, which shall survive Closing in accordance with their respective terms, (y) Buyer’s ability to recover under the R&W Insurance Policy or (z) any claims of Fraud or intentional misrepresentation against a Party hereto committing Fraud or intentional misrepresentation. 9.2. Certain Waivers. From and after Closing, except with respect to (a) covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement or in any Collateral Agreement (solely to the extent such covenants and agreements require performance of obligations after Closing) and (b) claims of Fraud or intentional misrepresentation committed by Seller, Buyer hereby waives, from and after Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims, and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements or otherwise relating to the negotiation, performance, and consummation of this Agreement or the Collateral Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, that it may have against Seller and its Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives as a matter of contract, tort, equity, strict liability, arising under or based upon any Law, or otherwise. Nothing in this Section 9.2 shall limit or affect any rights that Buyer or any of its Affiliates may have under the R&W Insurance Policy. 9.3. Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 9, from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall indemnify and defend each of Buyer and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all claims, actions, suits, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, losses, and damages, amounts paid in settlement, interest, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other out-of-pocket

-74- expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”) incurred, sustained or suffered by the Buyer Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of: (a) the breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by Seller in Article 3; (b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Seller or any Affiliate of Seller after the Closing pursuant to this Agreement; or (c) any Excluded Asset or any Excluded Liability. 9.4. Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 9, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall indemnify and defend each of Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred, sustained or suffered by the Seller Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of: (a) the breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made by Buyer in Article 4; (b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement; or (c) any Assumed Liability. 9.5. Limitation on Seller Indemnification. Other than with respect to Fraud, Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any Losses incurred by Buyer for which a claim for indemnification can be made pursuant to Section 9.3(a) shall be the R&W Insurance Policy. Seller shall not be responsible for any retention amounts or deductible amounts associated with the R&W Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify Buyer Indemnitees from or against any Losses under this Agreement (or any Collateral Agreement) to the extent that such Losses would, when aggregated with indemnification payments made by Seller pursuant to this Article 9, exceed the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, none of the limitations in this Article 9 (including limitations on the survival period for representations and warranties) shall apply to Fraud except that the aggregate Liability of Seller for any claim that arises as a result of Fraud shall not exceed the Purchase Price. 9.6. Limitation on Buyer Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer shall not be obligated to indemnify Seller Indemnitees from or against any Losses under this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement to the extent that such Losses would, when aggregated with indemnification payments made by Buyer pursuant to this Article 9, exceed the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Agreement, none of the limitations in this Article 9 (including limitations on the survival period for representations and warranties) shall apply to Fraud except that the aggregate Liability of Buyer

-75- for any claim for indemnification that arises as a result of Fraud shall not exceed the Purchase Price. 9.7. General Limitations. (a) Except for any claim for indemnification under Section 9.3(a) (to which this Section 9.7(a) shall not apply), no Party shall be liable to the other Party or any other Indemnified Party for any exemplary or punitive Losses (unless awarded in a Third Party Claim) pursuant to or arising out of any indemnification claim. (b) The indemnification provided in this Article 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for damages available to the Parties to this Agreement for breach of any of the terms, conditions, and covenants contained herein or any right, claim or action arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (but not claims arising under any Collateral Agreement); provided, however, this exclusive remedy for damages does not preclude a Party from bringing any action (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, limit the amounts recoverable in any action) for (i) specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Collateral Agreement or (ii) Fraud or intentional misrepresentation. 9.8. Third Party Claims. (a) Each of the Buyer Indemnitees and the Seller Indemnitees (each an “Indemnified Party”) seeking indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly notify the other Party against whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by any Third Party (a “Third Party Claim”), in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and shall give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered material prejudice by such failure). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of such Third Party Claim, to assume the defense and control the settlement of any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 9, if the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not have the option to assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim (i) which seeks any remedy other than monetary damages, (ii) which claim, or the assumption by Seller of the defense of which claim, Buyer Indemnified Party reasonably determines (A) could materially adversely affect the continuing business operations of Buyer Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or their relationships with customers, clients, suppliers or other third parties with whom Buyer Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates has a material business relationship, (B) would reasonably pose significant regulatory or reputational risk or exposure to Buyer Indemnified Party or (C) is a claim involving a criminal matter or litigation in which the Third Party is a Governmental Body (in which cases Buyer Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense of such matter and Seller shall have the right to participate in the defense of such matter at

-76- their own cost and expense), or (iii) which claim is covered by the R&W Insurance Policy and any claims, actions, suits, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, losses, and damages, amounts paid in settlement, interest, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (collectively, “Losses”) arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim are in excess (or are reasonably likely to be in excess) of the retention under such R&W Insurance Policy. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party exercises its right to control the defense of any Third Party Claim as provided above, each Party shall cooperate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and make available all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in such Party’s possession and control relating thereto as is reasonably required in connection with the defense of such Third Party Claim. (b) The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third Party Claim that the other is defending, as provided in this Agreement, excluding any Third Party Claims relating to Taxes of the Indemnified Party. (c) If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of any Third Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle, consent to a settlement of, or consent to the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (i) such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages for which the Indemnified Party has acknowledged and accepted full responsibility to indemnify the Indemnified Party, and (ii) the terms of the settlement include a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party and all of its Affiliates in respect of the subject matter of such Third Party Claim and all related claims and damages arising therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action, or (ii) does not provide for a full and unconditional release by such Third Party of the Indemnified Party. (d) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, both Parties hereto shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith or as provided in Section 5.1. 9.9. Indemnification Claim Procedures Generally. In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement other than a claim pursuant to Section 9.3(a), such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such indemnification claim to the Indemnifying Party (each such notice, a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered material prejudice by such failure). Any Claim Notice shall specify the basis for such claim, the amount thereof, if known (or a reasonable estimate if not known), and the method of computation thereof, all with reasonable particularity and shall contain a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such a claim shall be incurred. Such Claim Notice shall be given as promptly as is reasonably practicable after

-77- the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the basis for each such a claim.
