(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to contribute, convey, assign, transfer or deliver to, or to have assumed by, any of the Company, the Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates, any Transferred Assets or Assumed Liabilities, if an attempted contribution, conveyance, assignment, transfer, delivery or assumption thereof, as applicable, without the consent of a third party (including any Governmental Entity), would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or a violation of applicable Law or, in the case of a Transferred Contract, entitle a third party to cancel such Transferred Contract, and such consent shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing (any such Transferred Asset and related claim, right, or benefit are referred to herein as “Non-Assignable Assets,” and any such Assumed Liability and related claim or obligation are referred to herein as “Non-Assumable Liabilities”), unless and until (i) such consents shall have been obtained or (ii) the Buyer or a Buyer Designee notifies the Company that any such Transferred Asset should be transferred or assigned hereunder notwithstanding the absence of a requisite third party consent, in which event such Transferred Asset shall not be a Non-Assignable Asset for purposes of this Agreement and shall instead be transferred and assigned hereunder notwithstanding the absence of such third party consent (in which event, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not have any liability related to the fact such Transferred Asset is being transferred without such consent). The Company shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any consent and deliver any notice necessary for the contribution, conveyance, assignment, transfer, delivery or assumption of any Transferred Asset or Assumed Liability, or any claim, right, benefit or obligation arising thereunder or resulting

20

therefrom, to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, as applicable; provided, however, that, if any counterparty to a Contract conditions its grant of a consent (including by threatening to exercise a “recapture” or other termination right) upon, or otherwise requires in response to a notice or consent request regarding this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the payment of a consent fee, “profit sharing” payment or other consideration (including increased rent payments), or the provision of additional security (including a guaranty), no Party shall be required to make such payments or provide such additional security other than to the extent such payment or additional security is expressly contemplated by the terms of such Contract. If any requisite consent cannot be or is not for any reason obtained prior to the Closing, then the Company, the Buyer, and their respective Affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to develop a mutually agreeable arrangement (including by way of amendment or addition of services to the Transition Services Agreement) under which (x) the Buyer, or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, would, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, obtain the benefits (including contractual rights) and assume the obligations, as applicable, associated with such Transferred Assets or Assumed Liabilities, or any claim, right, benefit or obligation in accordance with this Agreement, including subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing to the Company, the Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, (y) the Non-Assignable Assets will be held by the applicable Seller in trust for the Buyer or a Buyer Designee and the covenants and obligations thereunder would be performed by the Buyer or a Buyer Designee in the Company’s or another Seller’s name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder would be for the Buyer’s or the Buyer Designee’s account and the Company hereby appoints the Buyer as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to act in its name and on its behalf or in the name (with full power of substitution) of the applicable Seller and on such Person’s behalf with respect thereto, and (z) the applicable transferors would enforce for the benefit of the Buyer, or any of its Affiliates, any and all of their rights against a third party (including any Governmental Entity) associated with such Transferred Asset or Assumed Liability, claim, right, benefit or obligation, and the applicable transferor would promptly pay to the Buyer, or any of its Affiliates when received all monies received by them (net of any applicable Taxes) under any such Transferred Asset or Assumed Liability, claim, right, benefit or obligation (such mutually agreeable arrangement, a “Transition Arrangement”). If after the Closing Date, a Non-Assignable Asset becomes assignable (either because consent for the assignment or execution thereof is obtained or otherwise), the Company shall reasonably promptly notify the Buyer after becoming aware of such fact and cooperate to assign or transfer such previously Non-Assignable Asset to the Buyer or the applicable Buyer Designee for no additional consideration. Any costs and expenses arising out of or related to the obligations described in this Section 2.2(a), including, for the avoidance of doubt, in relation to seeking or obtaining any necessary third party consents before or after the Closing, or any special arrangements between the Company and the Buyer after the Closing, shall be paid in full by, and be the sole obligation of, the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until any consent or approval with respect to any Non-Assignable Asset is obtained, such Non-Assignable Asset shall not constitute a Transferred Asset and any associated liability shall not constitute an Assumed Liability for any purpose under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the provisions of this Section 2.2 limit the recourse available to the Buyer for any inaccuracy in or breach of any representations, warranties or covenants of the Seller contained in this Agreement (including Section 3.4 and Section 2.1(b)) in connection with any failure to transfer any Transferred Asset, or any claim, right or benefit thereunder or resulting therefrom, to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee effective at the Closing.

21

2.3 Shared Contracts.

(a) The Company or other applicable Seller shall split and partially assign to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee or have replicated for the benefit of the Buyer or a Buyer Designee as of the Closing each Assignable Shared Contract in accordance with its terms.

(b) With respect to each Shared Contract that is not an Assignable Shared Contract (the “Non-Assignable Shared Contracts”), each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts in consultation with one another prior to the Closing Date to cause the counterparty to each such Non-Assignable Shared Contract to consent to the split and partial assignment or replication of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee, or to otherwise enter into a new Contract with the Buyer or a Buyer Designee on substantially the same terms as exist under the applicable Shared Contract, in each case as of the Closing. The obligations set forth in this Section 2.3 shall in all cases be subject to Section 2.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to pay any transfer or other fee or incur any liability to split, assign or replicate any Shared Contract, other than to the extent such fee or liability is expressly contemplated by the terms of such Shared Contract. As to any Non-Assignable Shared Contract for which the Parties have not received consent as of the Closing, (i) the Company agrees to continue to use reasonable best efforts following the Closing Date to obtain any required consent(s), and the Buyer agrees to cooperate in connection with same, (ii) the Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to avoid any breach or violation by a party as a result of any failure to obtain any required consent prior to the Closing and (iii) the Company, the Buyer, and their respective Affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to develop and enter into a Transition Arrangement in respect of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract.

(c) Following the Closing prior to the split and partial assignment to the Buyer or a Buyer Designee or replication of any Shared Contract, neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall, without the Buyer’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (i) amend, modify (other than by automatic extension or renewal if deemed an amendment or modification of any such Contract) or waive in any respect, the terms of any Shared Contract, (ii) cancel or terminate any Shared Contract prior to the end of its natural term (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any expiration or non-renewal of such Shared Contract in accordance with its terms or any termination of such Contract by any counterparty thereto other than the Company or any of its Affiliates); or (iii) otherwise waive, release or assign any rights, claims or benefits of the Company or any of its Affiliates under any Shared Contract, in each case, with respect to items (i), (ii) and (iii), in any manner that adversely impacts the Business in any material respect.

2.4 Consideration. The consideration for the sale and transfer of the Transferred Assets shall consist of (a) the assumption by the Buyer and/or a Buyer Designee(s) of the Assumed Liabilities as of the Closing, and (b) the sum of $110,000,000 payable to the Company in cash (the “Purchase Price”), allocated among the Sellers as determined pursuant to Section 2.6, which amount shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.6 and 2.7.

22

2.5 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place (i) remotely via the electronic exchange of documents and signature pages, commencing at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the fifth (5^th) Business Day after all of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than those conditions that by their nature can only be satisfied or waived at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at that time) are satisfied or waived (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) or (ii) at such other place, time or date as may be mutually agreed upon in writing by the Company and the Buyer (the date on which the Closing takes place being the “Closing Date”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Closing take place during the last two weeks of any fiscal quarter of the Buyer, in which case the Closing shall occur within three (3) Business Days following the last date of such Buyer fiscal quarter (subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VIII as of such date).

2.6 Payment of the Purchase Price.

(a) At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Buyer and or a Buyer Designee(s) shall pay an amount equal to (i) the Purchase Price, less (ii) the Purchase Price Adjustment Amount to the Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with written instructions provided to the Buyer by or on behalf of the Company not less than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

(b) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a statement (the “Estimated Closing NWC Statement”) which will set forth the Company’s good faith calculation in reasonable detail of its estimate of the amount of Closing Net Working Capital in accordance with the line items and format for such statement attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”) together with the Estimated Net Working Capital Adjustment Amount, which Estimated Closing NWC Statement shall include an itemized list of each element of the assets and of the liabilities included in such calculations. The Company shall consult with the Buyer and its accountants with respect to the preparation of the Estimated Closing NWC Statement and the Estimated Closing NWC Statement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer.

2.7 Post-Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall deliver to the Company a statement of the Closing Net Working Capital in accordance with the line items and format for such statement attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Closing Net Working Capital Statement”), and the Adjustment Amount, if applicable, calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, which Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall include an itemized list of each element of the assets and of the liabilities included in such calculations; provided, that, the Buyer may elect not to deliver a Closing Net Working Capital Statement, in which case the Final Closing Net Working Capital (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.7) shall be deemed to equal the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital. To the extent reasonably required by the Buyer in connection with the preparation of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, provide the Buyer with reasonable access (including electronic access, to the extent available) during normal business hours as the Buyer may reasonably request to the books and records of the Business and to the appropriate personnel or Representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including, but not limited to, finance personnel).

23

(b) Within thirty (30) days after the Company’s receipt of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, the Company shall notify the Buyer whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement. In the event that the Company disputes the accuracy of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, the Company shall deliver a written notice to the Buyer specifying in reasonable detail those items or amounts as to which the Company disagrees along with the Company’s calculation of such amounts (a “Dispute Notice”) and the Company shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement. In the event that the Company notifies the Buyer that it accepts the Closing Net Working Capital Statement, or does not deliver a Dispute Notice to the Buyer, during such thirty (30)-day period, the Company shall be considered to have accepted the accuracy of the Closing Net Working Capital Statement delivered by the Buyer and such Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(c) If a Dispute Notice shall be timely delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 2.7(b) above, the Buyer and the Company shall, during the twenty (20) Business Days following such delivery (as such time period may be extended by the mutual agreement of the Parties), seek in good faith to reach agreement on the disputed items. If the Company and the Buyer resolve their differences over the disputed items in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall be revised to reflect such resolution and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital agreed upon by the Company and the Buyer as reflected in such revised Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(d) If the Parties fail to resolve their differences over any of the disputed items in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement within such twenty (20) Business Day period, then the Company and the Buyer shall forthwith jointly request that KPMG LLP (the “Review Accountant”) make a binding determination as to such remaining disputed items in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Review Accountant will under the terms of its engagement have no more than thirty (30) days from the date of referral within which to render its written decision with respect to such disputed items. The Review Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement as to which the Company has disagreed in the Dispute Notice and which items or amounts have not subsequently been resolved by the Parties. The Review Accountant shall deliver to the Company and the Buyer a written report setting forth its adjustments, if any, to the Closing Net Working Capital Statement based on the Review Accountant’s determination with respect to the disputed items and such report shall include the calculations supporting such adjustments. Such report shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. In the event that the Review Accountant assigns a value to any disputed item or amount that is greater than the greatest value claimed, or assigns a value to any disputed item or amount that is less than the smallest value claimed, in each case, by either the Company or the Buyer, as applicable, the value of such item or amount shall be adjusted downwards or upwards, as applicable, such that the value of item or amount shall be deemed equal to such greatest claimed value or to such smallest claimed value, as applicable.

24

(e) The costs and expenses of the Review Accountant shall be allocated between the Company, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, based upon the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party. For example, if the Company claims the Closing Net Working Capital is $1,000 greater than the amount determined by the Buyer and if the Review Accountant ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding the Company $300 of the $1,000 contested, then the costs and expenses of the review shall be allocated thirty percent (30%) (i.e., $300 ÷ 1,000) to the Buyer and seventy percent (70%) (i.e., $700 ÷ 1,000) to the Company.

(f) As used herein, “Final Closing Net Working Capital” means the amount of (x) the Closing Net Working Capital (i) if the Company accepts the Closing Net Working Capital Statement or no Dispute Notice is delivered by the Company within the period provided in Section 2.7(b) above, as shown in the Closing Net Working Capital Statement as prepared by the Buyer, or (ii) if such a Dispute Notice is delivered by the Company, either (A) as agreed to by the Company and the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.7(c) above, or (B) as shown in the Review Accountant’s calculation thereof delivered in the Review Accountant’s written report pursuant to Section 2.7(d) above or (y) the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital if the Buyer elects not to deliver a Closing Net Working Capital Statement as provided in Section 2.7(a).

(g) If the Final Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, then the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) pay to the Buyer and/or the Buyer Designee, as applicable, a cash amount in U.S. dollars (the “Adjustment Amount”) equal to the amount by which the Final Closing Net Working Capital is in fact less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital.

The Company and its Representatives will, to the extent legally permitted, cooperate with the Buyer and the Buyer’s Representatives, at the Buyer’s cost and expense, in any attempt by the Buyer to obtain any such protective order or other remedy. If the Buyer elects not to seek, or is unsuccessful in obtaining, any such protective order or other remedy in connection with any requirement that the Company or any Representative of the Company disclose Buyer Confidential Information, and if the Company or such Representative notifies, to the extent legally permitted, the Buyer in writing that the Company’s or such Representative’s legal counsel has advised the Company or such Representative that the disclosure of such Buyer Confidential Information is legally required, then the Buyer or such Representative may disclose such Buyer Confidential Information to the extent legally required; provided, however, that the Company and its Representatives will use reasonable efforts to ensure that such Buyer Confidential Information is treated confidentially by each Person to whom the Company or any of its Representatives discloses such Buyer Confidential Information.

(a) In further consideration of the amounts to be paid hereunder for the Transferred Assets and the goodwill of the Business sold by the Company, except with the prior written consent of the Buyer, for a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, the Company will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, as a principal, stockholder, joint venturer, licensor or otherwise, (i) operate, perform, engage, participate or have any financial or beneficial interest in any Competing Business worldwide; (ii) encourage, induce, attempt to induce, solicit, or attempt to solicit any customer, reseller, vendor, or other business relation of the Buyer or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Business, the intent of which is to cease or limit its commercial relationship with the Buyer or its Subsidiaries with respect to the Business, or knowingly divert or attempt to divert business opportunities or prospects from such Persons away from the Business; or (iii) take any action the intent of which is to negatively affect any commercial relationship of the Buyer or its Subsidiaries with any other Person with respect to the Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree that the Excluded Activities do not constitute a Competing Business and that the provisions of this Section 5.14 do not apply or restrict in any way the Company and its Subsidiaries from engaging in the Excluded Activities. For the purpose of this Agreement, “Excluded Activities” means solely (i) the ownership of equity securities of a business entity whose securities are publicly traded under a recognized securities exchange not in excess of one percent (1%) of any class of such securities or (ii) acquisition of a controlling stake in a business entity that engages in a Competing Business so long as (A) those activities constitute less than twenty percent (20%) of the gross revenue of the acquired business entity and (B) as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event within one (1) year, following the acquisition of such controlling stake in such entity, the business unit or any portion of such entity engaging in a Competing Business is divested, wound down, or otherwise caused to no longer be a Competing Business.

(b) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions set forth in this Section 5.14 constitute a material inducement to the Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and that the Buyer would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in this Agreement, as specifically negotiated by the Parties, if the Company breached the provisions of this Section 5.14. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer would be irreparably damaged if the Company were to breach such obligations and that any such breach would result in a significant loss of goodwill by the Buyer for which there may be no adequate remedy at Law, and further agrees that in the event of any breach of said obligation, the Buyer may be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other relief as is proper under the circumstances. The Company further acknowledges that the Business has been conducted or is presently proposed to be conducted throughout the world and that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill of the Business being sold by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) If any provision contained in this Section 5.14 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

58

5.14 to 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. The restrictions set forth in this Section 5.14 are integral to the Agreement and are granted to maintain or preserve the value of the fair market value of the Transferred Assets.

Except with respect to any Fundamental Company Representation or any Special Company Representation or Fraud or Willful Breach, in each case, committed by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate Liability for indemnification by the Company pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i)(B) exceed $22,500,000 in the aggregate. Except with respect to Fraud or Willful Breach, in each case, committed by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Liability of the Company pursuant to collectively (A) Section 10.2(a)(i)(B) including in respect of breaches of or inaccuracies in the Special Company Representations but excluding the Fundamental Company Representations and (B) matters set forth on Schedule 10.2(a)(i)(F) shall not exceed $45,000,000 in the aggregate.

(iii) Other than with respect to Fraud or Willful Breach, in each case, committed by or on behalf of the Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer shall not be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the Company pursuant to Section 10.2(b)(i)(B) or (C) after the expiration of the applicable Survival Period unless a Claim Notice with respect to such Indemnification Claim shall have been given by the Indemnified Party prior to the expiration of the applicable Survival Period.

(c) The amount of any and all Losses under this Article X shall be determined net of any insurance proceeds (net of the costs of recovery thereof and any applicable deductibles, limitations, co-payments, retro premium obligations and premium increases attributable thereto) actually received by the Indemnified Party that actually reduce the overall impact of the Losses upon the Indemnified Party (it being understood, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to seek or procure any such insurance proceeds, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or applicable Law). If an Indemnified Party actually receives an amount under insurance coverage at any time subsequent to any indemnification provided by an Indemnifying Party under this Article X, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any such payment made up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party under such insurance (net of the costs of recovery thereof and any applicable deductibles, limitations, co-payments, retro premium obligations and premium increases attributable thereto).

(d) In the event that a particular matter entitles an Indemnified Party to indemnification pursuant to more than one clause of this Article X, such Indemnified Party will be entitled to recover a particular dollar of Losses associated with such matter only once under this Article X.

(e) For all purposes of this Article X, each representation or warranty of a Party contained in this Agreement or any certificate delivered by a Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be read without regard and without giving effect to any material adverse effect or other materiality qualification contained or incorporated directly or indirectly in such representation or warranty, including for the purposes of determining the amount of Losses indemnifiable hereunder and whether a representation or warranty has been breached or is inaccurate.

(f) The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by Buyer Indemnified Parties hereunder, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties or any of their Representatives.

71

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Article X shall limit the liability of any Party for Fraud or Willful Breach, in each case, committed by or on behalf of such Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) A Person that may be entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing (such notice, a “Claim Notice”) of any pending or threatened claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined gives or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, such claim being a “Third Party Claim”) (an “Indemnification Claim”); 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). Each Claim Notice will, with respect to each Indemnification Claim set forth therein, (i) specify in reasonable detail and in good faith the nature of the Indemnification Claim being made and (ii) state the aggregate dollar amount of Losses to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article X that have been incurred, or a good faith estimate of the aggregate dollar amount of such Losses reasonably expected to be incurred, by such Indemnified Party pursuant to such Indemnification Claim (the “Claim Amount”).

(b) If the Indemnifying Party wishes to object to the allowance of some or all Indemnification Claims made in a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party must deliver a written objection to Indemnified Party, within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Claim Notice expressing such objection and explaining in reasonable detail and in good faith the basis therefor. Following receipt by the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s written objection, if any, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party will promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, meet to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to each Indemnification Claim that is the subject of such written objection. If the parties should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement will be mutually prepared, and executed, by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and, as promptly as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days following the execution of such memorandum, subject to Section 10.3(d), the Indemnifying Party will pay the agreed amount to the Indemnified Party. In the event that the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party do not mutually prepare and execute such a memorandum or such memorandum does not address in full the written objections timely delivered, within thirty (30) days of receipt by the Indemnified Party, from the Indemnifying Party of the written objection, then the Indemnified Party may seek to resolve any dispute and to seek enforcement of the obligation with respect to the Indemnification Claim in any court available therefor in accordance with the terms of Section 11.3.

72

(c) If the Indemnified Party does not receive a response from the Indemnifying Party with respect to any Indemnification Claim set forth in a Claim Notice by the end of the thirty (30) day period referred to in Section 10.3(b), (i) the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to object to such Indemnification Claim and to have agreed that Losses in the amount of the applicable Claim Amount are indemnifiable hereunder and (ii) with respect to the subject Indemnification Claim, as promptly as practicable and within five (5) Business Days following expiration of such period, subject to Section 10.3(d), the Indemnifying Party will pay the Claim Amount to the Indemnified Party. If not paid, the Indemnified Party may seek enforcement of the obligation of the Indemnifying Party with respect to the Indemnification Claim in any court available therefor in accordance with the terms of Section 11.3.

(d) Any amount payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.3(b) or Section 10.3(c) above will be paid by the Indemnifying Party by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated in writing by Indemnified Party.

(e) Subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 10.3(e), the Indemnified Party shall control the defense of any Third Party Claim and have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim. Upon receipt of a notice of a Third Party Claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.3(a), the Indemnifying Party will be entitled, by notice to the Indemnified Party, to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim (at the expense of such Indemnifying Party), other than in the case of a Third Party Claim that relates to Taxes. The Indemnifying Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records, personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim. In conducting the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not consent to a settlement or compromise of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

10.4 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Article X will be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Parties hereto from and after the Closing Date for any claims in respect of a breach of this Agreement, including claims of inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement hereunder; provided, however, that the foregoing will not be deemed a waiver by any party of any right to seek specific performance or injunctive relief pursuant to Section 11.12, or limit any right or remedy arising by reason of any Fraud or Willful Breach, in each case, committed by or on behalf of any Party in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement against the Party committing such Fraud or Willful Breach, as applicable.

10.5 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties will treat any indemnification payment made hereunder as an adjustment to the total consideration for income Tax purposes.

77

11.10 Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an instrument or instruments in writing signed by the Party against whom enforcement of any such modification or amendment is sought.

The waiver by any Party of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or any other provision.

11.11 Severability.

Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

11.12 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Parties shall be entitled, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with Article IX, to seek an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to cause the Buyer and the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder), in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled in Law or in equity (subject to Section 10.3(e)). Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such order or injunction. The Parties further agree that nothing set forth in this Section 11.12 shall require any Party to institute any Action for (or limit any Party’s right to institute any Action for) specific performance under this Section 11.12 prior to or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article IX (and pursuing damages after such termination in accordance therewith).

11.13 Bulk Sale Laws. The Parties hereby waive compliance in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, with the provisions of any applicable bulk sales or bulk transfer or similar Law (“Bulk Sales Law”).
