Seller.
Section 2.2    Purchase Price.

Final Closing Statement. During

-15-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the 60-day period immediately following Parent’s receipt of the Final Closing
Statement (the “Review Period”), Parent and its Representatives shall be
provided reasonable access to the books, records and other relevant information
of Purchaser and its Representatives to the extent reasonably necessary to
review the Final Closing Statement. During the Review Period, Purchaser shall
make reasonably available personnel of Purchaser and its Affiliates (including

information used in, and the preparation of, the Final Closing Statement in
order to respond to reasonable inquiries made by Parent and its Representatives.
(b)    On or prior to the last day of the Review Period, and provided that the
aggregate amount at issue is greater than or equal to $50,000, Parent may object
to the Final Closing Statement by delivering to Purchaser a written statement
setting forth the basis for Parent’s objections thereto (the “Statement of
Objections”). If Parent fails to deliver the Statement of Objections within the
Review Period, the Final Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted
by Parent and shall be used in calculating the Adjustment Amount. If Parent
delivers the Statement of Objections within the Review Period, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections, and, if the same are so
resolved, the Final Closing Statement with such changes that may have been
previously agreed in writing by the Parties shall be final and binding and shall
be used in calculating the Adjustment Amount.
(c)    If the Parties shall fail to reach an agreement with respect to any of
the matters set forth in the Statement of Objections, then such unresolved
matters shall, not later than 15 days after one of the Parties affirmatively
terminates discussions in writing with respect to the Statement of Objections,

or is unable to act or is not, at the time of such submission, independent of
both Parent and Purchaser, to another independent accounting firm of
international reputation mutually acceptable to Parent and Purchaser (either

Accounting Expert shall, limiting its review to matters properly included in the
Statement of Objections and acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator,

corresponding adjustments to the Final Closing Statement. Subject to, and to the
extent permitted by, any applicable Laws, the Parties shall each make readily
available to the Accounting Expert all relevant books, records and other
information relating to the Target Companies. Each Party shall concurrently
provide the other Party with copies of all such materials and information
provided by such Party to the Accounting Expert. The Parties shall jointly
instruct the Accounting Expert to make a determination as soon as practicable
within 30 days (or such other time as the Parties shall agree in writing) after
its engagement and to select, with respect to each item in dispute, an amount
between or equal to Purchaser’s position on the Final Closing Statement and
Parent’s position in the Estimated Closing Statement. The Accounting Expert’s
resolution of the disputes set forth in the Statement of Objections and the
Final Closing Statement, with any such adjustments made by the Accounting
Expert, shall be final and binding and shall be used in determining the
Adjustment Amount, absent manifest error. The fees of the Accounting Expert
shall be divided between Purchaser, on the one hand, and Parent, on behalf of
the Sellers, on the other hand, in proportion to the aggregate Dollar amount
unsuccessfully disputed by such Party divided by the aggregate Dollar amount of
items submitted to the Accounting Expert.

applicable Law, Purchaser and Parent shall (and shall cause their respective
Affiliates to) allocate the Purchase Price among the Target Equity Interests as

ARTICLE IV    
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER
Except as set forth in Purchaser’s Disclosure Letter, Purchaser represents and
warrants to Parent, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (or in the
case of representations and warranties that speak of a specified date, as of
such specified date), as follows:
Section 4.1    Organization, Authorization, Enforceability, Non-Contravention.
(a)    Organization. Purchaser is a Schedule I bank existing under the Bank Act.
(b)    Corporate Authorization. Purchaser and each of its Affiliates that is a
party to any of the Transaction Documents has full corporate or other
organizational power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction
Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations under, and
consummate the transactions contemplated by, each such Transaction Document. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Purchaser has been duly
and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of
Purchaser. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Transaction
Documents (other than this Agreement) to which Purchaser or any of its
Affiliates is a party have been, or prior to Closing will have been, duly and
validly authorized by all necessary corporate or other action on the part of
such Person.
(c)    Binding Effect. This Agreement has been, and the other Transaction
Documents will at the Closing be, duly executed and delivered by Purchaser or
those of its Affiliates that are (or are

-35-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

contemplated to be) party thereto. This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding
obligation of Purchaser enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and
similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights
and to general equity principles. Each of the Transaction Documents (other than
this Agreement) to which Purchaser or any of its Affiliates is a party, when
executed and delivered by such Person, will be legal, valid and binding
obligations of such Person enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject
to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and
similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights
and to general equity principles.
(d)    Non-Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the
Transaction Documents to which Purchaser or any of its Affiliates is a party by
such Person, and the consummation by such Person of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, will not (i) violate or conflict with
any provision of the Constituent Documents of such Person, (ii) subject to the
receipt of all Purchaser Required Governmental Approvals, and the expiration of
any related waiting periods, violate or conflict with any Law or Permit
applicable to such Person, other than immaterial violations of Law or any
Permit, or (iii) constitute a breach (or event which, with the giving of notice
or the lapse of time, would constitute a breach) under, or give any third party
any rights of termination, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the
creation of any Encumbrance (other than Permitted Encumbrances) on any of the
material assets, properties or capital stock of such Person, pursuant to any
Contract, Permit or Government Order to which such Person is a party.
Section 4.2    Financing. As of the Closing, Purchaser will have available
sufficient cash, available lines of credit, committed debt or equity financing,
or other sources of immediately available funds to enable it to consummate the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and perform its obligations
hereunder. Purchaser’s obligations hereunder are not subject to any condition
regarding Purchaser’s ability to obtain financing for the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereunder.
Section 4.3    Approvals. Other than the authorizations, waivers, consents,
approvals, filings, registrations and notices set forth in Section 4.3 of
Purchaser’s Disclosure Letter (collectively, the “Purchaser Required
Governmental Approvals”), neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates is
required to (i) obtain any authorization, waiver, consent or approval of, (ii)
make any filing or registration with, or (iii) give any notice to, any
Government Authority in connection with or as a condition to the execution,
delivery and performance of any of the Transaction Documents or the consummation
of the transactions contemplated thereby, other than any authorization, waiver,
consent, approval, filing, registration or notice the failure of which to
obtain, make or give would not have a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect. To
Purchaser’s Knowledge, where the Purchaser Required Governmental Approvals
require that Purchaser meet certain qualifications, Purchaser meets such
qualifications. To Purchaser’s Knowledge, as of the date hereof, no event has
occurred nor has any circumstance arisen that would reasonably be likely to
result in the failure of any Purchaser Required Governmental Approvals or any
other authorizations to be received in a timely manner in order to permit the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

fee or commission in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
Section 4.5    No Litigation. To Purchaser’s Knowledge, there is no Action by
any Person pending or threatened against Purchaser that would be reasonably
likely to result in monetary damages, injunctive relief or the taking of any
other action that would be reasonably likely to (in any of the foregoing cases)
result in a Purchaser Material Adverse Effect. There are no unsatisfied or
outstanding Government Orders against Purchaser or any of the properties or
business of the Purchaser that would be reasonably expected to have a Purchaser
Material Adverse Effect.

and understands that the Target Equity Interests have not been registered under
the securities laws of any jurisdiction, including the Securities Act, and may
only be transferred pursuant to registration or an applicable exemption under
all applicable Laws. Purchaser is acquiring the Target Equity Interests for its
own account, for the purpose of investment only and not with a view to, or for
sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of applicable
Law. Purchaser has not, directly or indirectly, offered the Target Equity
Interests to anyone or solicited any offer to buy the Target Equity Interests

Interests by Purchaser within the registration requirements of the Securities
Act or the securities Laws of any other jurisdiction.

conducted to its satisfaction an independent investigation of the Target
Business and the operations, assets, Liabilities and financial condition of the
Target Companies in making the determination to proceed with the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents and has relied solely on the results
of its own independent investigation and the representations and warranties in
Article III in connection with the Target Companies and the subject matter of
this Agreement. The representations and warranties of Parent in Article III
constitute the sole and exclusive representations and warranties of Parent to
Purchaser in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
and Purchaser understands, acknowledges and agrees that, except as set forth in
Article III, all other representations and warranties of any kind or nature
express or implied (including any relating to the future or historical financial
condition, results of operations, assets or Liabilities of the Target Companies
or the quality, quantity or condition of the assets of the Target Companies) are
specifically disclaimed by Parent, and, to the extent applicable, waived by
Purchaser.
Section 4.8    Solvency. After giving effect to the payment of all amounts
required to be paid in connection with the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, and payment of all related fees and expenses,
Purchaser will be Solvent as of and immediately following the Closing. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Solvent,” when used with respect to any
Person, means that, as of any date of determination, (a) the amount of the “fair
saleable value” of the assets of such Person will, as of such date, exceed (i)
the value of all “liabilities of such person, including contingent and other
liabilities,” as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally

-37-

determined in accordance with applicable Laws governing determinations of the
insolvency of debtors, and (ii) the amount that will be required to pay the
probable Liabilities of such Person as such debts become absolute and mature,

representations and warranties contained in this Article IV, neither Purchaser
nor any other Person makes any other express or implied representation or
warranty on behalf of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, and Purchaser
disclaims any other representations or warranties.

its counsel, which reports shall include a comprehensive summary of the subject
matter of such meetings, calls and communications, including any issues,
questions or concerns raised in connection with the transactions contemplated
hereby. The Parties shall consult and reasonably cooperate with one another in
connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs,
arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of either
Party in connection with all meetings, actions and proceedings under or relating
to any applicable Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (including, with respect to making a particular filing, by providing
copies of all such documents to the non-filing Party prior to filing, giving due
consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested in
connection therewith); provided, however, that in respect of the approvals
required under the Bank Act or the TLCA, any confidential information shall be
redacted and provided only to legal counsel to the Parent. Any such provision of
information by one Party to the other may be made on a counsel-only basis to the
extent required under applicable Law, and any such materials may be redacted (i)
to remove references concerning the valuation of the Target Companies, (ii) as
necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, (iii) as necessary to address
reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns or
(iv) as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable Law.
(c)    Without limiting the generality of this Section 5.3, Purchaser agrees to
use its reasonable best efforts (1) to obtain any and all consents,
registrations, approvals, waivers, orders, interpretive guidance, exemptions,
Permits and authorizations necessary to be obtained from any Government
Authority (including the Required Governmental Approvals) to cause the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement to occur prior to the Outside Date
and (2) to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment to obtaining any and all
consents, registrations, approvals, waivers, orders, interpretive guidance,
exemptions, Permits and authorizations necessary to be obtained from any
Government Authority (including the Required Governmental Approvals) to cause
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to occur prior to the Outside
Date.
(d)    The Parties shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters
relating to completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
including promptly furnishing the other with copies of any material notices or
other communications received by either Party or its Affiliates (as the case may
be) or, to its Knowledge, its Representatives from any Government Authority with
respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case to the
extent permitted by applicable Law. The Parties shall give prompt notice to each
other of any development or combination of developments that, individually or in
the aggregate, is reasonably likely to prevent, materially delay or materially
impair its respective ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, including the failure to satisfy a condition to the Closing set
forth in Article VI; provided, however, that no such notification shall affect
the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations of the Parties or the
conditions to the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.
Section 5.4    Pre-Closing Restructuring. Between the date hereof and the
Closing Date, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to effect the
Restructuring in a manner that is reasonably satisfactory to each Party. Parent
agrees to keep Purchaser reasonably informed regarding the timing

-43-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and actions made in connection with the Restructuring. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Parent’s obligation pursuant to this Section 5.4 shall be subject to
the filing of all documentation to effect all necessary notices, reports and
other filings with and obtaining all consents, registrations, approvals,
waivers, orders, interpretive guidance, exemptions, Permits and authorizations
from all applicable Government Authorities with respect to the Restructuring. No
actions undertaken by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Target
Companies) in connection with the Restructuring (nor the effects resulting from
any such actions) shall (i) serve as the basis for a breach of any
representation or warranty contained in Article III (including for purposes of
determining whether an indemnifiable claim for Losses exists under Article VIII)
or (ii) be prohibited by Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.2. Parent or one or more of
its Affiliates (other than the Target Companies) shall bear all out-of-pocket
costs and expenses (including any fees and Taxes) incurred in connection with
the Restructuring.
Section 5.5    Access and Information.
(a)    From the date hereof until the Closing, subject to any applicable Law,
Parent, in its reasonable discretion and to the extent not disruptive to the
employees of the Target Companies, Target Business and the senior management of
the Target Companies, shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, afford Purchaser
and its Affiliates, subject to any contractual restrictions, reasonable access
during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to the books and
records of the Target Business and senior management of the Target Companies and
their respective agents and auditors, in each case, to the extent reasonably
required by Purchaser to ensure an orderly and efficient transition of the
Target Business to Purchaser (including meetings in connection with talent
identification and interviews with key employees), to prepare for the Closing
and to facilitate the satisfaction of the conditions to the Closing under
Article VI; provided, however, that in no event shall Purchaser have access to
any information (i) that relates solely to any portion of the business of Parent
or its Affiliates that is not being transferred pursuant to this Agreement or
(ii)  in Parent’s reasonable determination, the disclosure of which would
violate applicable Law, or could result in the waiver of any legal privilege. In
the event that disclosing information would violate any obligation of Parent or
any of its Affiliates with respect to confidentiality, the Parties shall
reasonably cooperate so the information might be made available in a redacted
format, or, if such redaction would result in pertinent information being
omitted, Parent shall make such information available if Purchaser delivers
confidentiality, and if reasonably required, indemnity, undertakings reasonably
satisfactory to Parent.
(b)    Following the Closing, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
Purchaser agrees to provide (or cause its Affiliates to provide) Parent with all
necessary access to all books and records and other documents that it acquires
pursuant to this Agreement and to its assets, properties and Representatives, in
each case, to the extent that such access is reasonably required by Parent or
any of its Affiliates, (i) to prepare financial statements, Tax filings or
regulatory filings of Parent in respect of periods ending on or prior to the
Closing Date, (ii) to comply with the terms of any Transaction Document, any
applicable Law or request of any Government Authority, (iii) to defend or
prosecute any judicial, arbitral or regulatory proceeding to which Parent or any
of its Affiliates is a party relating to the business and affairs of the Target
Companies prior to the Closing, or (iv)

-44-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in connection with any claim for indemnity made under or pursuant to this
Agreement, in each case, subject in the case of any Confidential Information of
Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to Parent and its Representatives agreeing to
maintain the confidentiality of such information; provided, however, that in no
event shall Parent have access to any information the disclosure of which, based
on advice of Purchaser’s counsel, or in Purchaser’s reasonable determination,
would violate applicable Law or could result in the waiver of any legal
privilege. In the event that disclosing information would violate any obligation
of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates with respect to confidentiality, the
Parties shall reasonably cooperate so the information might be made available in
a redacted format, or, if such redaction would result in pertinent information
being omitted, Purchaser shall make such information available if Parent
delivers confidentiality, and if reasonably required, indemnity, undertakings
reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser. Purchaser agrees to (or to cause its
Affiliates to) retain and preserve all books and records and all other documents
that it and its Affiliates acquire pursuant to this Agreement for at least eight
years following the Closing Date (or longer if required by applicable Law).
Section 5.6    Confidentiality.
(s)    Sections 3, 4, 5 and 11 of the Confidentiality Agreement shall cease to
have any force or effect as of the Closing Date.
(t)    Subject to Section 5.7 and Section 5.6(c), from and after the Closing
Date, (i) each Party that receives or obtains Confidential Information, or whose
Affiliates receive or obtain Confidential Information (collectively, the
“Receiving Party”), from the other Party or any of its Affiliates (collectively,
the “Disclosing Party”) as a result of entering into this Agreement (or any
agreement entered into pursuant to this Agreement) shall treat such Confidential
Information as confidential and shall not disclose or use any such Confidential
Information except as provided herein.
(u)    Section 5.6(b) shall not prohibit disclosure or use of any Confidential
Information if and to the extent: (i) the disclosure or use is required by Law,
any Government Authority or any recognized stock exchange on which the Equity
Interests of the Receiving Party or its Affiliates are listed (provided that, to
the extent permitted by applicable Law, prior to such disclosure or use the
Receiving Party shall (A) promptly notify the Disclosing Party of such
requirement and provide the Disclosing Party with a list of Confidential
Information to be disclosed and (B) reasonably cooperate in obtaining a
protective order covering, or confidential treatment for, such Confidential
Information), (ii) the disclosure is to any Government Authority having
jurisdiction over the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates in connection
with ordinary course discussions with, and examinations by, such Government
Authority, (iii) disclosed to any Government Authority with jurisdiction over
the Receiving Party or its Affiliates (provided that, to the extent permitted by
applicable Law, prior to such disclosure the Receiving Party shall (A) promptly
notify the Disclosing Party of such requirement and provide the Disclosing Party
with a list of Confidential Information to be disclosed and (B) reasonably
cooperate in obtaining a protective order covering, or confidential treatment
for, such Confidential Information), (iv) the disclosure or use is required for
the purpose of any judicial proceedings arising out of this Agreement or any
other agreement entered into under or pursuant to this Agreement or the
disclosure is made in connection with the Tax affairs of the

SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disclosing Party, (v) the disclosure is made to the Receiving Party’s
Representatives on a need-to-know basis (with the understanding that the
Receiving Party shall be responsible for any breach by its Representatives of
this Section 5.6), (vi) the Confidential Information is or becomes generally
available to the public (other than as a result of a disclosure, directly or
indirectly, by the Receiving Party or its Representatives), (vii) the
Confidential Information is already in the Receiving Party’s possession
(provided that such Confidential Information is not known by the Receiving Party
to be subject to another confidentiality obligation), (viii) the Confidential
Information is or becomes available to the Receiving Party on a non-confidential
basis from a source other than the Disclosing Party (provided that such sources
are not known by the Receiving Party to be subject to another confidentiality
obligation), (ix) in the case of disclosure or use by Purchaser and its
Affiliates, the Confidential Information relates exclusively to the Target
Companies and is independently developed after the Closing, or (x) the
disclosure or use of such Confidential Information is made with the Disclosing
Party’s prior written approval.
Section 5.7    Announcements. Neither Party shall, and they shall cause their
respective Affiliates not to, issue any press release or make any general
employee communication or public announcement relating to the subject matter of
this Agreement until the Closing Date without the prior review and written
approval of the other Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not
prohibit such disclosure if required by Law, any Government Authority or any
recognized stock exchange on which the Equity Interests of either Party or any
of their respective Affiliates are listed (in which case the applicable Party
will use its commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the other Party
before making the disclosure and to allow such other Party to review the text of
the disclosure before it is made). Without limiting the reach of the preceding
sentence, the Parties shall cooperate to develop all public announcement
materials and general employee communications and make appropriate management
available at presentations related to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement as reasonably requested by the other Party.
Section 5.8    Insurance.
(f)    With respect to the Target Businesses, Parent shall (i) keep, or cause to
be kept, all Insurance Policies or suitable replacements therefor (with terms,
conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are substantially similar in
all material respects to the existing policies or otherwise consistent with the
market practice of businesses of a similar size and type), in full force and
effect through the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) use
commercially reasonable efforts to protect the rights of the insured Persons
under such insurance policies or replacements in all material respects,
including by causing said insured Persons to (A) pay or otherwise satisfy or
have satisfied any unpaid premiums when due with respect to any period ending at
or prior to the Closing, (B) provide any reasonably required notices (including
renewal notices or, if applicable, other documentation reasonably required to
continue in full force and effect the Insurance Policies) to the issuers
thereof, and (C) act reasonably in respect of any decision whether to submit and
pursue claims on a timely basis under the Insurance Policies.
(g)    Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Target
Companies) will not have access to, and shall not be permitted to make any
claims under, any of Parent’s or any of

-46-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

its Affiliate’s insurance policies and programs with respect to any events or
circumstances, including events or circumstances relating to the Target Business
that occurred or existed prior to the Closing.
Section 5.9    Interest in Intellectual Property.
(e)    Except as specifically provided in this Section 5.9 or the Transitional
Trademark License Agreement, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that none of
Purchaser or its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Target Companies)
is purchasing, acquiring, receiving a license to or otherwise obtaining any
right, title or interest in, to or under any Intellectual Property owned or
licensed by Parent or any of its Affiliates (other than the Target Companies),
including the Parent Trademarks, but excluding the Company Trademarks.
(f)    Except as expressly permitted in the Transitional Trademark License
Agreement, (i) Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (which, as of and
after the Closing, shall include the Target Companies) to, cease and discontinue
all uses of the Parent Trademarks, and (ii) Parent shall, and shall cause its
Affiliates to, cease and discontinue all uses of the Company Trademarks.
Purchaser, for itself and its Affiliates (which, as of and after the Closing,
shall include the Target Companies), agrees that the rights of the Target
Companies to the Parent Trademarks pursuant to the terms of any trademark
agreements between Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Target
Companies, on the other hand, shall terminate as of the Closing and be replaced
by such rights as are provided by the Transitional Trademark License Agreement.
Parent, for itself and its Affiliates, agrees that any of their respective
rights to the Company Trademarks pursuant to the terms of any trademark
agreements between Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Target
Companies, on the other hand, shall terminate as of the Closing and be replaced
by such rights as are provided by the Transitional Trademark License Agreement.
(g)    Purchaser hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenants, and will
cause its Affiliates (which, as of and after the Closing, shall include the
Target Companies) and its and their respective successors and assigns to
covenant, not to, after the Closing, assert, initiate, file, or otherwise
commence anywhere in the world any Action, or participate in or provide support
for any such Action, against Parent or its Affiliates, or their respective
successors or assigns or their respective officers, directors, employees,
agents, direct or indirect customers, users, licensees, direct or indirect
suppliers, service providers, distributors, resellers or contractors (each, an
“IP User”) for infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of any
Intellectual Property rights in or arising from any Intellectual Property owned
by any of the Target Companies as of the date of this Agreement, provided (i)
that the use, and the manner of use, of any such Intellectual Property by the
applicable IP User is consistent with the use, and the manner of use, of any
such Intellectual Property as of the date of this Agreement, and (ii) any such
use of any such Intellectual Property does not otherwise breach Section 5.14.
Section 5.10    Cooperation Regarding Transition Arrangements.
(a)    Subject to applicable Law, between the date of this Agreement and the
earlier of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement, each Party
shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party to reasonably assist each other
in planning and implementing necessary and appropriate

-47-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

policies, procedures and other arrangements in connection with the transition of
ownership of the Target Companies, including the services to be provided
pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. As necessary in connection
therewith, each Party shall designate certain of their respective employees as
“Transition Coordinators” to coordinate planning and implementation contemplated
by this Section 5.10(a).
(b)    The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use
their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consents and
approvals and make any other notifications that may be required in connection
with the provision of services and access to certain facilities as of the
Closing Date pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. The Parties agree
that any costs and expenses payable to third parties (other than the respective
Representatives of each of the Parties) in connection with the procurement of
any such consents or waivers of third parties necessary or advisable for the
provision of such services and access to such facilities shall be borne by
equally by Parent and Purchaser, provided that the Parties shall cooperate to
minimize such costs and expenses. If the Parties are unable to obtain any such
consent or approval prior to the Closing, the Parties shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain, as of the Closing Date, a commercially reasonable
alternative to the services and access to the facilities to which such consent
or approval and the costs and expenses payable to obtain such alternative (but
not the costs and expenses for the ongoing receipt of such alternative services
and access to the facilities) shall be borne equally by Parent and Purchaser,
provided that the Parties shall cooperate to minimize such costs and expenses.
(c)    From and after the date hereof, subject to applicable Law and the
reimbursement of costs as provided in this Section 5.10(c), Parent shall, and
shall cause the Target Companies to, in Parent’s reasonable discretion and to
the extent not disruptive to the employees of the Target Companies, reasonably
cooperate in sending communications to and to arranging meetings between
Purchaser and the Target Companies, on the one hand, and the Target Companies’
auto dealers or auto manufacturers, on the other hand, in each case as
reasonably requested by Purchaser. The content of any such communications shall
be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs
relating to any communications sent by the Target Companies at the request of
Purchaser shall be borne by Purchaser, provided Parent shall obtain Purchaser’s
prior written approval before any such costs in excess of $15,000 are incurred.
Subject to applicable Law, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing
Date, Parent shall keep Purchaser informed and cooperate with Purchaser in
connection with the efforts of the Target Companies to retain their auto dealers
and auto manufacturers.
Section 5.11    Employee Matters.
(c)    Effective as of and from the Closing, each employee who is employed by
any of the Target Companies as of immediately prior to the Closing (the
“Continuing Employees”) shall continue in employment with Purchaser or an
Affiliate thereof. Subject to Section 5.11(g), for the one-year period
immediately following the Closing Date, or, if longer, for the period of time
required by applicable law, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to,
provide to each Continuing Employee (i) base compensation and incentive
compensation (including equity compensation) opportunities and welfare and
retirement benefits and perquisites that, in the aggregate, are

-48-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

substantially similar to the base compensation and incentive compensation
(including equity compensation) opportunities and welfare and retirement
benefits and perquisites provided by Parent and the Target Companies as in
effect for each such Continuing Employee as of immediately prior to the Closing,
except with respect to pension benefits (for those Continuing Employees
currently participating in a defined benefit plan) and retiree benefits
(healthcare and life insurance), and (ii) severance benefits that are
substantially similar to the severance benefits provided by the Target Companies
to each such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing. Effective
immediately upon the Closing, Purchaser may designate certain Continuing
Employees to be eligible to participate in the benefit and compensation plans,
contracts, policies and arrangements of Purchaser or its applicable Affiliates
(including any benefit and compensation plans, contracts, policies and
arrangements of the Target Companies maintained by Purchaser or its Affiliates
after the Closing) (the “Purchaser Benefit Plans”).
(d)    For purposes of vesting, benefit accrual, eligibility for benefits,
vacation and sick time credit and eligibility to participate under the Purchaser
Benefit Plans (but not for purposes of benefit accrual under any Purchaser
Benefit Plan that is not a Target Company Benefit Plan that continues to be
maintained by Purchaser or its Affiliates after Closing), each Continuing
Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Target
Companies and their respective predecessors before the Closing, to the same
extent as such Continuing Employee was entitled, before the Closing, to credit
for such service under any similar Target Company Benefit Plan in which such
Continuing Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately
prior to the Closing; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent
that its application would result in a duplication of benefits, including
duplication of any severance payment, with respect to the same period of
service. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Purchaser shall cause or shall cause its applicable Affiliates to cause (i) each
Continuing Employee to be immediately eligible to participate, without any
waiting time, in any and all Purchaser Benefit Plans to the extent coverage
under any such Purchaser Benefit Plan is replacing comparable coverage under a
Target Company Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated
immediately before the Closing (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”), and
(ii) for purposes of each Purchaser Benefit Plan providing medical, dental,
pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Continuing Employee, any evidence
of insurability requirements, all pre-existing condition exclusions and
actively-at-work requirements of such Purchaser Benefit Plan to be waived for
such Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents. Purchaser shall
cause any eligible expenses incurred by any Continuing Employee and his or her
covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on
the date such Continuing Employee’s participation in the corresponding Purchaser
Benefit Plan begins to be taken into account under such Purchaser Benefit Plan
for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket
requirements applicable to such Continuing Employee and his or her covered
dependents for the applicable plan year.
(e)    Parent shall be responsible for all payment obligations, and shall
reimburse Target Companies for any payments made by the Target Companies on or
after the Closing Date under the Retention Agreements except to the extent that
such payment obligations are accrued or reserved for in the Final Closing
Statement.

-49-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(f)    To avoid doubt, effective as of the Closing, the applicable Target
Company and its Affiliates shall retain responsibility for the registered
pension plan listed in Section 5.11(d) of Parent’s Disclosure Letter (the
“Pension Plan”) and, subject to Section 5.11(f), shall be solely responsible for
all Liabilities with respect to such Pension Plan, and shall hold harmless
Parent and its Affiliates in respect of such Pension Plan.
(g)    Within 30 days of the date of this Agreement, Parent shall provide to
Purchaser in writing a list of all employees of the Target Companies, including
information regarding each such employee’s participation in Target Company
Benefit Plans and in Parent Plans. Not less than two (2) weeks prior to the
Closing Date, Parent shall provide to the Purchaser in writing (i) a list of all
Continuing Employees including each such employee’s length of service, job
title, salary and compensation details and information regarding participation
in Target Company Benefit Plans and in Parent Plans, and (ii) a list of the
sales personnel, sales support staff, credit relationship managers, dealer
relationship managers and contract processing managers of the Target Companies
(other than administrative personnel) (each, a “Specified Person”), together
with any other employee data reasonably requested by Purchaser; provided,
however, that such other employee data reasonably requested is requested in
writing not less than four (4) weeks prior to the Closing Date.
(h)    Effective as of February 1, 2013, or effective on the Closing Date if
earlier (in either event the “Excluded Employees Benefit Transition Date”) the
Excluded Employees shall cease to accrue further benefits under and participate
in any of the Target Company Benefit Plans including the Pension Plan. As soon
as practicable following the date hereof, Parent shall take steps to establish
and register or cause to be established and registered with the relevant pension
Government Authority a registered pension plan to be effective as of the
Excluded Employees Benefit Transition Date to provide pension benefits for the
Excluded Employees who participated in the Pension Plan immediately prior to
such date (the “Replacement Pension Plan”). As soon as the Replacement Pension
Plan has been filed for registration with the relevant Government Authority,
Parent shall notify the Purchaser and provide Purchaser with a copy of the
Replacement Pension Plan. As soon as practicable thereafter and if possible (and
if permitted by Law) prior to the Excluded Employees Benefit Transition Date,
the Target Company which is the administrator of the Pension Plan shall prepare
and file with the relevant Government Authority an application for approval to
transfer the defined contribution account balances of the Excluded Employees
from the Pension Plan to the Replacement Pension Plan (for greater certainty,
the asset transfer is to include the Excluded Employees’ entire account
balances, including amounts contributed up to the Excluded Employees Benefit
Transition Date as well as interest and earnings following such date up to the
date of the asset transfer, less any benefits or expenses paid therefrom). If
the Government Authority declines to approve the asset transfer, then the
account balances shall remain in the Pension Plan to be dealt with in the normal
course in accordance with its terms and applicable Law. From and after the
Closing, Parent shall indemnify the Target Companies and the Purchaser and its
Affiliates for any costs incurred by them on and after the Closing Date in
respect of such asset transfer. Parent shall also establish or cause to be
established, to be effective on and after the Excluded Employees Benefit
Transition Date, non-pension benefit plans (the “Excluded Employees Benefit
Plans”) for the Excluded Employees who participated in the Target Company
Benefit Plans (other than the Pension Plan – the “Target Company Non-Pension
Plans”) immediately prior to such date. From and after

-50-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the Closing, Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its
Affiliates, and the Target Companies, from and against any and all claims made
by any of the Excluded Employees in respect of benefits under the Target Company
Benefit Plans, unless such claims are paid from a Target Company Benefit Plan.
Any claims incurred by the Excluded Employees prior to the Excluded Employees
Benefit Transition Date and not paid prior to such date shall be covered by the
Target Company Non-Pension Plans if the relevant plan is provided pursuant to
insurance and not on an administrative-services only basis and the claim is
covered by the relevant insurance policy; any other claims incurred by the
Excluded Employees either before or on and after such date shall be covered by
the Excluded Employees Benefit Plan. “Incurred” means, in relation to such
claims, the date on which the event giving rise to such claim occurred and, in
particular: (i) with respect to a death or dismemberment claim, shall be the
date of the death or dismemberment; (ii) with respect to a short-term or
long-term disability claim, shall be the date that the period of short-term or
long-term disability commenced; (iii) with respect to an extended health care
claim, including, without limitation, dental and medical treatments, shall be
the date of the treatment; and (iv) with respect to a prescription drug or
vision care claim, the date that the prescription was filled. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Parent shall make commercially reasonable efforts to establish or
cause to be established the Replacement Pension Plan and the Excluded Employees
Benefit Plans effective January 1, 2013 (or the Closing Date if earlier); if
Parent succeeds in doing so, then this Section 5.11(f) shall be read such that
the Excluded Employees Benefit Transition Date is January 1, 2013 (or the
Closing Date if earlier) for all purposes.
(i)    Purchaser and Parent acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained
in this Section 5.11 are included for the sole benefit of Purchaser and Parent
and nothing contained herein shall (i) be construed as an amendment to any
employee benefit plan or program, (ii) create any third-party beneficiary or
other rights in any other Person, including any Continuing Employee or former
employee of any of Purchaser, Parent, the Target Companies or any of their
respective Affiliates, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, (iii) limit the
right of the Purchaser or its Affiliates to, at any time after the Closing,
terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee or amend or terminate (in
whole or in part) any Purchaser Benefit Plans, (iv) require any Purchaser
Benefit Plans to replicate any particular benefit(s) provided under the Target
Company Benefit Plans prior to the Closing or (v) require or otherwise obligate
Purchaser or Parent or any of their respective Affiliates to maintain any
particular employee benefit plan (including any severance policy or practice) or
retain the employment of any Continuing Employee following the Closing Date.
Section 5.12    Termination of Certain Affiliate Arrangements; Replacement of
Guarantees and Transferred Derivatives; Certain Releases.
(e)    Subject to applicable law, on or prior to the Closing Date, all Related
Party Contracts (other than those set forth in Section 5.12(a) of Parent’s
Disclosure Letter) shall be terminated as between Parent or any of its
Affiliates (other than the Target Companies), on the one hand, and any of the
Target Companies, on the other hand, and all payables and receivables under any
Related Party Contracts so terminated shall have been settled and shall be
reflected on the Estimated Closing Statement and Final Closing Statement.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(f)    Subject to applicable Law, at or prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall
(i) arrange for substitute letters of credit, guarantees and other obligations
or commitments to replace (A) any letters of credit, guarantees (including any
guarantees in connection with any Securitization Transaction), surety bonds,
performance bonds, capital maintenance agreements or commitments, and other
contractual obligations or commitments entered into by or on behalf of Parent or
any of its Affiliates (other than solely by any of the Target Companies) in
connection with the Target Business (together, the “Parent Guarantees”)
outstanding as of the date hereof and (B) any Parent Guarantees entered into in
the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, on or after the
date hereof and prior to the Closing, (ii) assume all obligations under each
Parent Guarantee or Transferred Derivative, obtaining from the creditor or other
counterparty a full release (in a form satisfactory to Parent) of all parties
liable, directly or indirectly, for reimbursement to the creditor or
counterparty, as the case may be, or fulfillment of other obligations to a
counterparty in connection with amounts drawn under the Parent Guarantees or due
under the Transferred Derivatives, (iii) obtain from the creditor or other
counterparty a waiver, release and discharge of any Parent Guarantee (in a form
reasonably satisfactory to Parent) and (iv) obtain from the counterparty to any
Transferred Derivative a novation of such Transferred Derivative to Purchaser or
any of its Affiliates (in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent). Purchaser
shall make, or cause to be made, any required filings before any applicable
Government Authority in connection with the foregoing. Purchaser further agrees
that to the extent (1) the beneficiary or counterparty under any Parent
Guarantee does not accept any such substitute letter of credit, guarantee or
other obligation or commitment proffered by Purchaser, (2) Purchaser is unable
to obtain from the beneficiary or counterparty under any Parent Guarantee a full
release (in a form satisfactory to Parent) as contemplated by Section
5.12(b)(ii) Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent and its
Affiliates against, and reimburse Parent and its Affiliates for, any and all
amounts paid, including costs or expenses in connection with such Parent
Guarantees, including Parent’s and its Affiliates’ expenses in maintaining such
Parent Guarantees, whether or not any such Parent Guarantee is drawn upon or
required to be performed, and shall in any event promptly (and in any event

-59-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ending after the Closing (such period, a “Straddle Period” and each Tax Return
for any Straddle Period, a “Straddle Period Return”), Purchaser shall prepare,
or cause to be prepared, each Straddle Period Return on a basis consistent with
(i) applicable Law, (ii) the Final Closing Statement, and (iii) to the extent
not inconsistent with applicable Law, the past practices and procedures of the
Target Companies. Purchaser shall provide to Parent for its review a draft of
each Straddle Period Return no later than 60 days in the case of an income Tax
Return, and 30 days in the case of any other Tax Return, prior to the due date
for filing such Tax Return with the appropriate Government Authorities. Parent
shall notify Purchaser in writing within 15 days in the case of an income Tax
Return, and five days in the case of any other Tax Return, after delivery of a
Straddle Period Return of any reasonable comments with respect to items set
forth in such Straddle Period Return. Purchaser shall consider in good faith all
such comments. Purchaser shall provide a final copy of each Straddle Period
Return to Parent not less than two days before the deadline to file such
Straddle Period Return and Purchaser shall ensure that such Straddle Period
Return is duly filed.
(g)    Parent shall pay to Purchaser all Specified Tax Liabilities by wire
transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the
date of receiving notice from Purchaser that such Taxes are due. Parent shall be
entitled to recover from Purchaser any amounts paid to Purchaser pursuant to

personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in
the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes
for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of calendar days in the Pre-Closing Period and the
denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the relevant Straddle
Period;
(vi)    In the case of Taxes not described in (i) above (such as franchise
Taxes, Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, or Taxes that
are based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other
transfer or assignment of property), the amount of any such Taxes shall be
determined as if such taxable period ended at the close of the Closing Date; and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 7.3    Amendments. Purchaser shall not permit any amendment, or any
similar action, with respect to any Tax Return filed by the Sellers with respect
to any Pre-Closing Period (if Sellers would be liable for any Losses arising
from such amended returns) without the prior written consent of the Sellers,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the
foregoing shall not apply to any amended Tax Return that may be required
following resolution of a tax audit or other inquiry from a taxing authority
conducted in accordance with the contest provisions of Section 7.4.
Section 7.4    Contest Provisions.
(v)    If a claim shall be made by any Government Authority, that, if
successful, might result in a payment on behalf of Sellers to Purchaser under
Section 8.2 or Section 8.4(f) (a “Tax Claim”), Purchaser shall promptly (and in
any case no later than 15 days after Purchaser becomes aware of a Tax Claim)
notify the Sellers with such potential liability in writing and in reasonable
detail to apprise Sellers of the nature of the Tax Claim taking into account the
facts and circumstances with respect to such Tax Claim (a “Tax Notice”). If a
Tax Notice is not given to Sellers within such time period, such failure shall
not preclude Purchaser from obtaining such indemnification but its right to
indemnification shall be reduced to the extent that such delay prejudiced
Sellers’ position or defense of the Tax Claim or increased the amount of
liability or cost of defense.
(w)    Subject to Section 7.4(d), with respect to any Tax Claim or claim related
to the Excess Tax Receivables, Sellers shall have the right, at their own sole
expense, to control and conduct all proceedings and negotiations in connection
with such Tax claim (including selection of counsel), and may, in their sole
discretion, either pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund where applicable Law
permits such refund suits or contest the Tax Claim in any permissible manner.
Purchaser or its designee shall have the right to participate in such
proceedings and negotiations (including with counsel of its choice), at its sole
expense, and Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and its
accountants and other Representatives in connection with such participation. If
Sellers elect, in their sole discretion, not to control and conduct the
proceedings and negotiations in connection with a Tax Claim or a claim related
to the Excess Tax Receivables, Sellers shall, within 20 days of receipt of a Tax
Notice with respect to such claim, notify Purchaser in writing of their
intention not to control and conduct the proceedings and negotiations in
connection with such claim. In such event, Purchaser may control, or cause its
designee to control, and conduct such proceedings and negotiations in such
manner as it may deem appropriate, and Sellers shall have the right to
participate in such proceedings and negotiations (including, without limitation,
with counsel of their choice), at their sole expense, and Purchaser shall
reasonably cooperate with Sellers and their accountants and other
representatives in connection with such participation; provided that Purchaser
shall not settle any Tax Claim or a claim related to the Excess Tax Receivables
without Sellers’ consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed).
(x)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers with potential liability under
Section 8.2 with respect to a Tax Claim shall not be entitled to settle such Tax
Claim in the event such settlement relates to any Taxes for which such Sellers
are not liable unless such Sellers notify Purchaser in writing of their
intention to settle such Tax Claim at least 20 days prior to the date of such
proposed settlement. If Purchaser rejects the proposed settlement, Purchaser may
control, or cause its designee

-61-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to control, and conduct such proceedings and negotiations regarding such Tax
Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate at its sole expense, and Sellers
shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and negotiations at
their sole expense, and Purchaser and Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with
each other and with their respective accountants and other representatives in
connection with such participation. In such case, any amount payable by Sellers
under Section 8.2 shall be no greater than the amount of the proposed settlement
rejected by Purchaser, if the amount of such proposed settlement is acceptable
to the relevant Government Authority and the proposed settlement is otherwise
acceptable to the Government Authority in all material respects.
(y)    With respect to any Tax Claim relating to the Tax Receivables, Parent
shall have the right to control and conduct all proceedings and negotiations in
connection with such Tax Claim (including selection of counsel). Purchaser or
its designee shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and
negotiations (including with counsel of its choice) and Parent shall reasonably
cooperate with Purchaser and its accountants and other Representatives in
connection with such participation. Parent agrees that it shall dispute any Tax
Claim relating to the Tax Receivables as expeditiously as possible. If Parent
elects, in its sole discretion, not to control and conduct the proceedings and
negotiations in connection with a Tax Claim relating to the Tax Receivables,
Parent shall, within 20 days of receipt of a Tax Notice with respect to such Tax
Claim, notify Purchaser in writing of its intention not to control and conduct
the proceedings and negotiations in connection with such Tax Claim. In such
event, Purchaser may control, or cause its designee to control, and conduct such
proceedings and negotiations in such manner as it may deem appropriate, and
Parent shall have the right to participate in such proceedings and negotiations
(including, without limitation, with counsel of its choice), at its sole
expense, and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and its
accountants and other representatives in connection with such participation.
Section 7.5    Transfer and Sales Taxes. Purchaser will, at its own expense,
file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to any
transfer, documentary, stamp or other related Taxes and any recording or filing
fees, including interest or penalties thereon, in each case arising from the
purchase and sale of the Target Equity Interests, and will pay all such Taxes in
full. If required by applicable law, Sellers will, and will cause its affiliates
to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.
Section 7.6    Cooperation; Access to Records. After the Closing, Sellers and
Purchaser shall cooperate fully in preparing for and conducting any audits of,
or disputes with Tax authorities regarding, any Tax Returns, and shall provide
such information as reasonably necessary for such audits, disputes or for the
filing of all Tax Returns, subject to the provisions of Section 7.4. Parent
shall, and shall cause each other Seller to, after the Closing, consistent with
current practices of the Target Companies, retain such records, documents,
accounting data and other information as are necessary for the preparation,
filing and examination of Tax Returns with respect to Taxes of the Target
Companies and shall make available to the other parties and to any Government
Authority as reasonably requested all records, documents, accounting data and
other information relating to Taxes of the Target Companies until the expiration
of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Purchaser or the
Target Companies, any extensions thereof) and shall give Purchaser reasonable
written notice prior to transferring, destroying, or discarding any such books
and records

-62-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and, if Purchaser so requests, Sellers shall allow Purchaser to take possession
of such books and records.    
Section 7.7    No Tax Election.
(h)    Purchaser shall not make, and agrees to prevent the Target Companies from
making, any tax election for U.S. income tax purposes that might adversely
affect the Sellers without the prior written consent of the Sellers, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, taking into account any compensation provided by
Purchaser to Sellers.
(i)    Other than a tax election that is made in respect of any taxable period
(including portions thereof as allocated pursuant to Section 7.2(c)) beginning
after Closing or a tax election made pursuant to Section 7.2(d), Purchaser
agrees to prevent the Target Companies from making, any tax election for
Canadian income tax purposes that might result in an increased payment by
Sellers under Article VIII without the prior written consent of the Sellers,
which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, taking into
account any compensation provided by Purchaser to Sellers.
Section 7.8    Tax Sharing. Prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall terminate
any tax-sharing allocation, and indemnification agreements and arrangements of
the Target Companies, and such agreements shall have no further effect for any
taxable year or period (whether a past, present or future year or period), and
no additional payments shall be made thereunder on or after the Closing Date
with respect to any period.
Section 7.9    Income Tax Purchase Price Allocation. For U.S. federal income tax
purposes (and for purposes of any state tax that is based upon similar
principles), Purchaser and Parent shall (and shall cause their respective
Affiliates to) allocate the Purchase Price, as determined for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, among the Target Companies, or if a Target Company is
treated as a “disregarded entity” within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Reg.
§ 301.7701-3(b)(2)(i)(C), to the assets of such Target Company, as reasonably
specified by the Parent in writing in a final Purchase Price allocation
statement delivered to the Purchaser no later than 15 days after the later of
(1) Parent’s acceptance of the Final Closing Statement or (2) the resolution of
all Parent’s objections to the Final Closing Statement pursuant to Section
2.3(d). Parent shall deliver to Purchaser no later than 15 days after the later
of (1) Parent’s acceptance of the Final Closing Statement or (2) the resolution
of all Parent’s objections to the Final Closing Statement pursuant to Section
2.3(d), a draft statement setting forth its calculation of the Purchase Price,
for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including a schedule setting forth any
assumed liabilities constituting part of such Purchase Price), and its proposed
allocation of such Purchase Price among the Target Companies and/or their
assets, which calculation and allocation shall be prepared in a manner
consistent with all applicable requirements of the Code and the U.S. Treasury
Regulations thereunder. If Purchaser disagrees either with the Parent’s
determination or allocation of the Purchase Price set forth on such statement,
Purchaser may deliver to Parent its proposed changes to such statement within 15
days of receipt thereof. Parent shall consider any such proposed changes
reasonably and in good faith, accept any changes that are required by applicable
Law and incorporate any such changes (and any other changes that it has agreed
with Purchaser to make) in the final Purchase Price allocation statement

-63-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to be delivered as provided in the first sentence of this Section 7.9. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser and Parent shall (and shall
cause their respective Affiliates to) file all Tax Returns for U.S. federal
income Tax purposes (and for purposes of any state tax that is based upon
similar principles) in a manner consistent with the final Purchase Price
allocation statement, taking into account any required adjustments to the
Purchase Price and the allocation thereof that arise because of events that
occur after the final Purchase Price allocation statement has been delivered.
Section 7.10    Refund of Tax Benefits. Purchaser shall pay to Parent, within 15
days, the amount of any refunds of Tax (other than in respect of the Tax
Receivables which shall be dealt with in accordance with Section 8.4(f)) that
are received by the Purchaser or the Target Companies, or any amounts credited
against Tax to which Purchaser or the Target Companies become entitled,
including, for certainty, any refund or amounts credited in respect of an Excess
Tax Receivable, which refunds or amounts credited relate to Tax periods (or
portions thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date (except to the extent
shown as an asset on a balance sheet of a Target Company for purposes of, or
otherwise taken into account in, calculating the Final Net Asset Value).
Purchaser shall not be required to apply any Tax attributes arising in any
taxable period (including portions thereof as allocated pursuant to Section
7.2(c)) beginning after Closing to any Pre-Closing Period in order to increase
the amount of any Tax refund or any amounts credited against Tax which relate to
Tax periods (or portions thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date.
ARTICLE VIII    
SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION; CERTAIN REMEDIES
Section 8.1    Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and
obligations of the Parties contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall
survive in full force and effect until the date that is 540 days after the
Closing Date, at which time they shall terminate (and no claims shall be made
for indemnification under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 thereafter), except (a) the
Parent Fundamental Representations and the Purchaser Fundamental Representations
shall each survive until the end of the applicable statute of limitations and
(b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.8 shall survive
until the date that is 60 days after the relevant Government Authorities shall
no longer be entitled to assess or reassess liability for Taxes against the
Target Companies for the particular period to which the representation or
warranty relates, having regard, without limitation, to any waivers given by the
Target Companies in respect of any taxation year or taxation period, provided
that if such waivers are given after the Closing Date, Parent shall have given
its prior consent in writing, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed, to such waivers; provided, further, that any obligations to indemnify
and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any Losses as to which the
Person to be indemnified shall have given notice (stating the basis of the claim
for indemnification) to the Indemnifying Person in accordance with Section 8.4
before the termination of such applicable survival period. The covenants and
obligations that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part
after the Closing shall survive for the period provided in such covenants and
obligations, or until fully performed, and the covenants and obligations that by
their terms apply or are to be performed in their entirety on or prior to the

Closing shall terminate at the earlier of (x) the time at which they are
performed and (y) immediately following the Closing.
Section 8.2    Indemnification by Parent.
(c)    After the Closing and subject to this Article VIII, Parent, on behalf of
the Sellers, shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser against, and
reimburse Purchaser for, all Losses that Purchaser may at any time suffer or
incur, or become subject to:
(i)    as a result of or in connection with the breach of any of the
representations and warranties of Parent contained in Article III (it being
understood that, for purposes of determining whether any breach has occurred or
calculating the amount of any Losses under this Section 8.2(a)(i), all
materiality and Company Material Adverse Effect qualifications and exceptions,
including the words or phrases “material”, “immaterial”, “in all material
respects” or words or phrases of similar import, (except for such qualifications
and exceptions (A) used to qualify a list of items rather than to qualify a
statement or (B) contained in Section 3.5(ii)) contained in such representations
and warranties shall be disregarded);
(ii)    as a result of or in connection with any breach by Parent of any of its
covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement;
(iii)    (A) that constitute a Liability for Taxes of any of the Target
Companies (except as shown as a Liability or reserve on the Final Closing
Statement for purposes of, or otherwise taken into account in, calculating the
Final Net Asset Value) for any Pre-Closing Period (and, if such Taxes arise in a
Straddle Period, as allocated pursuant to Section 7.2(c)), (B) resulting from
Ally Credit Canada Limited receiving less than the full amount of the Tax
Receivables from the relevant Government Authority (it being understood that any
amounts applied by a Government Authority to reduce any Specified Tax Liability
shall not be considered to be credited to Ally Credit Canada Limited for
purposes of this Section 8.2(a)(iii)), and (C) relating to any reasonable
third-party costs incurred by Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with any
matters relating to Taxes in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), provided
however, that such third-party costs shall not include professional fees
incurred in connection with the dispute of any item herein with Parent or its
Affiliates; or
(iv)    as a result of or in connection with the Sold Mortgage Business or under
any Mortgage Sale Agreement, except for any Losses suffered by Purchaser as a
result of or in connection with any breach or purported breach, by Purchaser or
any of its Affiliates from and after the Closing Date, of any covenants or
obligations contained in any Mortgage Sale Agreement (including pursuant to any
waiver of any provision thereof obtained in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby); or
(v)    resulting from the Restructuring.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent shall
not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless Purchaser against, or
reimburse, or otherwise have

-65-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

any liability under this Agreement to, Purchaser for any Losses pursuant to
Section 8.2(a)(i) (other than Losses in connection with any Parent Fundamental
Representations) until the aggregate amount of Purchaser’s Losses for which
Purchaser is finally determined to be otherwise entitled to indemnification
under Section 8.2(a)(i) exceeds $22,500,000 (the “Deductible”), after which
Parent, on behalf of the Sellers, shall be obligated for all Purchaser’s Losses
for which Purchaser is finally determined to be otherwise entitled to
indemnification under Section 8.2(a)(i) that are in excess of the Deductible;
provided that, once the aggregate amount of Purchaser’s Losses for which
Purchaser is finally determined to be entitled to indemnification under Section
8.2(a)(i) exceeds $15,000,000 (the “Sub-Deductible”), then Parent, on behalf of
the Sellers, shall be obligated for all Purchaser’s Losses for which Purchaser
is finally determined to be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.2(a)(i)
for Losses in connection with the representations and warranties in Section 3.8;
provided that, to avoid doubt, any amounts actually paid for Losses hereunder
(including under Section 8.2(a)(iii)) shall not be applied against the
Deductible or the Sub-Deductible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, Parent shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold
harmless Purchaser against, or reimburse, or otherwise have any liability under
this Agreement to, Purchaser for any Losses (1) pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(i)
(other than Losses in connection with any Parent Fundamental Representation) in
a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding $400,000,000 (the “Cap”) and (2)
pursuant to Section 8.2(a)(ii), Section 8.2(a)(iv) and Section 8.2(a)(i) (only
in respect of Losses in connection with the Parent Fundamental Representations)
in a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding the Purchase Price.
(e)    Solely for purposes of this Article VIII, the term “Purchaser” includes
Purchaser and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Target
Companies) and their respective successors (if any).
Section 8.3    Indemnification by Purchaser.
(z)    After the Closing and subject to this Article VIII, Purchaser shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent, on behalf of itself and the Sellers,
against, and reimburse Parent for, all Losses that Parent may at any time suffer
or incur, or become subject to:
(i)    as a result of or in connection with the breach of any of the
representations and warranties of Purchaser contained in Article IV (it being
understood that for purposes of determining whether any breach has occurred or
calculating the amount of any Losses under this Section 8.3(a)(i), all
materiality and Purchaser Material Adverse Effect qualifications and exceptions,
including the words or phrases “material”, “immaterial”, “in all material
respects” or words or phrases of similar import, contained in such
representations and warranties shall be disregarded);
(ii)    as a result of or in connection with any breach by Purchaser of any of
its covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement; or
(iii)    that constitute a Liability for Taxes of any of the Target Companies
for any taxable periods (including portions thereof as allocated pursuant to
Section 7.2(c)) beginning after the Closing.

-66-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(aa)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser
shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless Parent against, or
reimburse, or otherwise have any liability under this Agreement to, Parent for
any Losses pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(i) (other than Losses in connection with
any Purchaser Fundamental Representations) with respect to any claim until the
aggregate amount of Losses for which Parent is finally determined to be
otherwise entitled to indemnification under Section 8.3(a)(i) exceeds the
Deductible, after which Purchaser shall be obligated for all the Losses for
which Parent is finally determined to be otherwise entitled to indemnification
under Section 8.3(a)(i) that are in excess of the Deductible. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Purchaser shall not be required to
indemnify, defend or hold harmless Parent against, or reimburse, or otherwise
have any liability under this Agreement to, Parent for any Losses (1) pursuant
to Section 8.3(a)(i) (other than Losses in connection with any Purchaser
Fundamental Representation) in a cumulative aggregate amount exceeding the Cap
and (2) pursuant to Section 8.3(a)(ii) and Section 8.3(a)(i) (only in respect of
Losses in connection with the Purchaser Fundamental Representations) in a
cumulative aggregate amount exceeding the Purchase Price.
(bb)    Solely for purposes of this Article VIII, the term “Parent” includes
Parent and its Affiliates and their respective successors (if any).
Section 8.4    Claims Procedure.
(o)    Notification by the Indemnified Person. If any Person claiming
indemnification under this Article VIII (the “Indemnified Person”) becomes aware
of any fact, matter or circumstance that may give rise to a claim for
indemnification under this Article VIII, the Indemnified Person shall (at its
own expense) promptly notify the Person from whom indemnification is sought (the
“Indemnifying Person”) in writing of such claim, including any pending or
threatened claim or demand by a third party that the Indemnified Person has
determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification
under this Agreement (including a pending or threatened claim or demand asserted
in writing by a third party against the Indemnified Person) (each, a
“Third-Party Claim”), setting out the provisions under this Agreement on which
such claim is based, and such other information (to the extent available) as is
reasonably necessary to enable the Indemnifying Person to assess the merits of
the potential claim, to make such provisions as it may consider necessary
(including details of the legal and factual basis of the claim and the evidence
on which the party relies (including where the claim is the result of a
Third-Party Claim, evidence of the Third-Party Claim)) and setting out its
estimate of the amount of Losses to the extent ascertainable which are, or are
to be, the subject of the claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide
such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Person from any of its
obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying
Person is prejudiced by such failure. The Parties agree that (i) in this Article
VIII they intend to shorten, in the case of the limited survival periods
specified in Section 8.1, the applicable statute of limitations period with
respect to certain claims; (ii) notices for claims in respect of a breach of a
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation must be delivered prior to the
expiration of the applicable survival period specified in Section 8.1 for such
representation, warranty, covenant or obligation; and (iii) any claims for
indemnification for which notice is not timely delivered in accordance with this
Section 8.4(a) shall be expressly barred and

-67-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

are hereby waived; provided, further, that if, prior to such applicable date, a
Party shall have notified the other Party in accordance with the requirements of
this Section 8.4(a) of a claim for indemnification under this Article VIII
(whether or not formal legal action shall have been commenced based upon such
claim), such claim shall continue to be subject to indemnification in accordance
with this Article VIII notwithstanding the passing of such applicable date.
(p)    Cooperation by the Indemnified Person. The Indemnified Person shall
reasonably cooperate with and assist the Indemnifying Person in determining the
validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Person and in defending
against a Third-Party Claim. In connection with any fact, matter, event or
circumstance that may give rise to a claim against any Indemnifying Person under
this Agreement, the Indemnified Person shall ensure that the Indemnified Person
and its Affiliates, as applicable: (i) shall preserve all material evidence
relevant to the claim, (ii) shall allow the Indemnifying Person and its advisers
to investigate the fact, matter, event or circumstance alleged to give rise to
such claim and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of
such claim, and (iii) shall (at its own expense) disclose to the Indemnifying
Person and its Representatives all material of which it is aware which relates
to the claim and provide, and procure that its Affiliates provide (at their own
expense), all such information and assistance, including access to premises and
personnel, and the right to examine and copy or photograph any assets, accounts,
documents and records, as the Indemnifying Person or its Representatives may
reasonably request, subject to the Indemnifying Person and its advisers agreeing
in such form as the Indemnified Person may reasonably require to keep all such
information confidential and to use it only for the purpose of investigating and
defending the claim in question.
(q)    Assumption of Defense of a Third-Party Claim.
(i)    Upon receipt of a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified
Person pursuant to Section 8.4(a) in respect of a Third-Party Claim, the
Indemnifying Person may, by notice to the Indemnified Person delivered within 30
Business Days of the receipt of notice of such Third-Party Claim, assume the
defense and control of any Third-Party Claim, with its own counsel and at its
own expense, but shall allow the Indemnified Person a reasonable opportunity to
participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim with its own counsel and at
its own expense (which shall not constitute a Loss); provided, however, that the
Indemnifying Person shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of separate
outside counsel to the Indemnified Person if (i) so requested by the
Indemnifying Person to participate, (ii) the named parties to any such Action
(including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Person and the
Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have been advised in
writing by its outside counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses
available to the Indemnified Person that are different from, or in addition to,
those available to the Indemnifying Person or (iii) outside counsel to the
Indemnified Person shall have advised the Indemnified Person in writing that a
conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Person and the
Indemnifying Person that would make joint representation inappropriate;
provided, further, that the Indemnifying Person shall not be required to pay for
more than one such counsel (plus local counsel, if and to the extent applicable)
for all Indemnified Persons in connection with any Third-Party Claim.

-68-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(ii)    The Indemnifying Person shall not, without the prior written consent of
the Indemnified Person (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or
delayed), consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge of, or the entry of
any judgment arising from, any Third-Party Claim, unless such settlement,
compromise, discharge or entry of any judgment does not involve any finding or
admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by the
Indemnified Person, and the Indemnifying Person shall obtain, as a condition of
any settlement, compromise, discharge, entry of judgment (if applicable), or
other resolution, a complete and unconditional release of each Indemnified
Person from any and all Liabilities in respect of such Third-Party Claim. If the
Indemnifying Person does not assume the defense and control of any such
Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Person, subject to Section 8.4(d), may defend
the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate.
(iii)    If the Indemnifying Person elects not to assume the defense and control
of any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify the Indemnified Person of its
election as herein provided, the Indemnified Person may defend against,
negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third-Party Claim in accordance
with the other provisions of this Article VIII; provided, that the Indemnified
Person shall keep the Indemnifying Person reasonably apprised of the status of
such Third-Party Claim and use reasonable efforts to allow the Indemnifying
Person to participate therein at its own expense; provided, further, that the
Indemnified Person shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any
judgment with respect to any such Third-Party Claim, or admit to any liability
with respect to such Third-Party Claim, without the prior written consent of the
Indemnifying Person, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed.
(r)    Settlement of Claims. The Indemnified Person shall not settle, compromise
or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any claim or demand for
which it is seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Person or admit to any
liability with respect to such claim or demand without the prior written consent
of the Indemnifying Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Article VIII, no Indemnifying Person shall have any liability under this
Article VIII for any Losses arising out of or in connection with any Third-Party
Claim that is settled or compromised by an Indemnified Person without the
consent of such Indemnifying Person.
(s)    Response to Claims Not Involving Third-Party Claims. In the event any
Indemnifying Person receives a notice of a claim for indemnity from an
Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 8.4(a) that does not involve a
Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall notify the Indemnified Person
within 30 Business Days following its receipt of such notice whether the
Indemnifying Person disputes its liability to the Indemnified Person under this
Article VIII.
(t)    Claim by Purchaser under Section 8.2(a)(iii)(B). Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, on the earlier of (i) the date on which Parent elects
not to exercise its rights under Section 7.4(d) with respect to the control and
conduct of all proceedings and negotiations in respect of any Tax Claim in
respect of any Tax Receivables (“Specified Tax Receivables”), and (ii) the Tax
Receivables Receipt Date for that tranche, Purchaser shall be entitled to make a
claim under Section 8.2(a)(iii)(B) in respect of any portion of that tranche of
the Tax Receivables that has not been

-69-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

received by or credited to Ally Credit Canada Limited (other than as applied to
reduce any Specified Tax Liability) as of such date (or, in case of clause (i),
in respect of the Specified Tax Receivables) and shall be entitled to recover
from Parent under such claim within five Business Days of making such claim. If,
after payment of the full amount of all claims by Parent to Purchaser under this
Section 8.4(f), Ally Credit Canada Limited receives (i) all or any portion of
the Tax Receivables from the relevant Government Authority or (ii) notice from a
Government Authority that all or any portion of the Tax Receivables will be
applied to reduce any Tax liability of Ally Credit Canada Limited other than any
Specified Tax Liability, Purchaser shall, within five Business Days of the
receipt or application (the “Receipt Date”), pay to Parent an amount equal to
(A) the aggregate amount of Tax Receivables received by Ally Credit Canada
Limited (including any interest received from the Government Authority
applicable to any portion of such Tax Receivables that relates to the period
after which Parent paid the amounts owing to Purchaser under this Section 8.4(f)
in respect of such portion of the Tax Receivables) or applied to reduce Ally
Credit Canada Limited’s Tax liability (other than any portion of the Tax
Receivables applied to reduce any Specified Tax Liability) on or prior to such
Receipt Date, minus (B) all amounts previously paid to Parent by Purchaser under
this Section 8.4(f) in respect of the Tax Receivables plus all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs incurred by Purchaser or its Affiliates in connection with
the collection of such Tax Receivables (it being understood that if the
difference between (A) and (B) is a negative number, no amount shall be payable
to Parent).
Section 8.5    Payment. In the event a claim for indemnification under this
Article VIII has been finally determined, the amount of such final determination
shall be paid by the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person within two
Business Days of the request therefor in immediately available funds. Any Action
by or before any Government Authority or arbitral body, and the liability for
and amount of damages therefor, shall be deemed to be “finally determined” for
purposes of this Article VIII when the parties hereto have so determined by
mutual agreement or, if disputed, when a final non-appealable Government Order
has been entered into with respect to such Action.
Section 8.6    Treatment of Indemnification Payments. To the fullest extent
permitted under applicable Law, for all purposes (including Tax purposes), the
Parties shall treat any payment made under Section 8.2 or Section 8.3 as an
adjustment to the Purchase Price.
Section 8.7    Provisions. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable under this
Article VIII in respect of any Loss to the extent of the amount of the Loss
accrued or reserved for in the Final Closing Statement.
Section 8.8    Exclusive Remedies. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that
(a) prior to the Closing, other than in the case of actual fraud by Parent, the
sole and exclusive remedy of Purchaser for any breach of any of the
representations and warranties of Parent contained in Article III shall be, in
the event that each of the conditions set forth in Article VI has not been
satisfied or waived, refusal to close the purchase and sale of the Target Equity
Interests hereunder; (b) following the Closing, (i) the indemnification
provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the
Parties for any breach of the representations or warranties contained in this
Agreement except in the case of fraud or willful breach and (ii) notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, no breach of any representation,
warranty, covenant or obligation

-70-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

contained herein shall give rise to any right on the part of either Party to
rescind this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby; and
(c) following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this Article VIII
shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedies of the Parties for any breach
or non-fulfillment of any covenant (other than those covenants set forth under
Section 5.6 for the enforcement of which a Party may also seek specific
performance).
Section 8.9    Damages. The Parties agree that with respect to each
indemnification obligation set forth in this Article VIII, any Transaction
Document or any other document executed or delivered in connection with the
Closing, in no event shall an Indemnifying Person have any liability to an
Indemnified Person for any consequential, indirect, incidental, exemplary,
punitive or special damages, internal costs or lost profits, except for any such
damages actually paid by the Indemnified Person to any third party in respect of
any Third-Party Claim. The Parties agree that, notwithstanding the terms of this
Section 8.9 but subject to the other terms of this Article VIII, this Section
8.9 shall not preclude Purchaser and its Affiliates from claiming Losses under
this Article VIII in connection with damages actually paid by them to the third
party (or any of its Affiliates) set forth in Section 8.9 of Purchaser’s
Disclosure Letter relating to any sale of some or all of the assets of the
Target Companies to such third party, provided (i) that the facts, events and
circumstances giving rise to such damages give rise to a breach under this
Agreement for which indemnification would be available to Purchaser and its
Affiliates had they sustained the damages directly as a Loss (and such breach is
demonstrable), and (ii) the amount of such damages indemnifiable hereunder shall
be the lesser of (x) the damages actually paid by them to the third party as a
result of the breach and (y) the amount that Purchaser and its Affiliates would
have been entitled hereunder had the Purchaser and its Affiliates continued to
own such assets sold to the third party .
Section 8.10    Net Tax Benefit. Any amount of any Loss for which reimbursement
or indemnification is provided under this Article VIII shall be (i) decreased by
any Tax benefit actually realized as a decrease in Taxes payable by the
Indemnified Person (or any Affiliate thereof) as a result of the incurrence or
payment of any such Loss (including as a result of the facts, matters, events or
circumstances giving rise to such Losses), and (ii) increased by any Tax cost
actually incurred as an increase in Taxes payable by the Indemnified Person (or
any Affiliate thereof) as a result of the receipt or accrual of the
indemnification payment.
Section 8.11    Contingent Liabilities. No Indemnifying Person shall be liable
under this Article VIII in respect of any Loss which is contingent unless and
until such contingent Loss becomes an actual liability and is due and payable.
To avoid doubt, any Loss in respect of Taxes for which an assessment or
reassessment has been issued by a Government Authority shall not be considered a
contingent Loss.
Section 8.12    Right to Recover.
(a)    If any Indemnifying Person is liable to pay an amount in discharge of any
claim under this Agreement and any Indemnified Person recovers or is entitled to
recover (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, insurance or otherwise)
from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates the Indemnified Person
(in whole or in part) in respect of the Loss which is the

-71-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

subject matter of the claim, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, shall procure
that, before steps are taken to enforce a claim against any Indemnifying Person
under this Agreement, all reasonable steps are taken to enforce recovery against
the third party and any actual recovery (less any reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in obtaining such recovery) shall reduce or satisfy, as the case may
be, such claim to the extent of such recovery. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither Party shall be required to act or forbear to act under this Section 8.12
if such act or forbearance, as applicable, could prejudice such Person’s ability
to prosecute a claim against an Indemnifying Person or any right hereunder in
the reasonable judgment of Parent or Purchaser, as applicable.
(b)    If any Indemnifying Person has paid an amount in discharge of any claim
under this Agreement and any Indemnified Person recovers or is entitled to
recover (whether by payment, discount, credit, relief, insurance or otherwise)
from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates any Indemnified Person
(in whole or in part) in respect of the Loss which is the subject matter of the
claim, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, shall procure that all steps are
taken as may reasonably be required to enforce such recovery and shall, or shall
procure that the relevant Indemnified Person shall, pay to Parent or Purchaser,
as applicable, as soon as practicable after receipt an amount equal to (i) any
sum recovered from the third party less any reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in obtaining such recovery or (ii) if less, the amount previously paid
by the relevant Indemnifying Person to the relevant Indemnified Person.Double
Claims
Section 8.13    Mitigation of Losses. Any Indemnified Person that becomes aware
of Losses for which it seeks, or may seek, indemnification under this Article
VIII shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such Losses, which in
the absence of mitigation might give rise to or increase such Loss in respect of
any claim under this Article VIII, including, to avoid doubt, re-filing any Tax
Return for any period that is not closed by virtue of any statute of limitations
to make claims for any amounts available in such period that arise from the
Losses being mitigated (including as a result of the facts, matters, events or
circumstances giving rise to such Losses) including claims for increased
available capital cost allowance but only to the extent such amounts arose in a
Pre-Closing Period and were not taken into account in calculating the Final Net
Asset Value. In the event an Indemnified Person fails to so mitigate such an
indemnifiable Loss, the Indemnifying Person shall have no liability for any
portion of such Loss that is attributable to the Indemnified Person’s failure to
use such commercially reasonable efforts.
ARTICLE IX    
TERMINATION
Section 9.1    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the
Closing:
(f)    Consent. By the mutual written consent of Parent and Purchaser;
(g)    Delay. By either Parent or Purchaser if no Closing has occurred on or
before the Outside Date as it may be extended; provided, however, that the right
to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b) shall not be available to
any Party whose failure to take any action required to fulfill any of such
Party’s obligations under this Agreement has caused or resulted in the failure
of the Closing to occur prior to the Outside Date;

-72-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(h)    Breach. By either Parent or Purchaser, upon written notice to the other,
in the event of a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of Purchaser (in the case of
Parent) or Parent (in case of Purchaser), which breach would, individually or in
the aggregate, result in, if occurring or continuing on the Closing Date, the
failure of any condition to the terminating Party’s obligations set forth in
Article VI to be satisfied, and which cannot be or has not been cured within
45 days after the giving of written notice to the breaching Party of such breach
(or by the Outside Date, if earlier); provided, however, that the right to
terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c) shall not be available to any
Party if the would-be terminating Party is then in material breach of its
representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder; and
(i)    Denial of Regulatory Approval. By Parent or Purchaser on or after the
60th day following the issuance of a written denial of any Required Governmental
Approval by action of the relevant Government Authority and all avenues of
appeal, if any, have been exhausted; provided, however, that the right to
terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(d) shall not be available to any
Party if such Party is in material breach of its representations, warranties,
agreements and covenants hereunder at the time it seeks to terminate this
Agreement under this Section 9.1(d).
Section 9.2    Notice of Termination. If Parent or Purchaser desires to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, it shall give written notice
of such termination to (in the case of termination by Parent) Purchaser and to
(in the case of termination by Purchaser) Parent.
Section 9.3    Effect of Termination. Upon a termination of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 9.1, each Party’s further rights and obligations
hereunder, other than the Surviving Provisions, shall terminate, but termination
shall not affect any rights or obligations of a party which may have accrued
prior to such termination and shall not relieve any Party from liability for any
willful and material breach prior to such termination.
Section 9.4    Additional Rights and Remedies. The Parties acknowledge and agree
that nothing in this Article IX shall prejudice or limit any rights or remedies
which may otherwise be available to Parent or Purchaser under this Agreement or
pursuant to applicable Law, including the right to claim damages or seek
specific performance.

-75-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Agreement to the exclusion of any terms implied by Law which may be excluded by
contract and supersede any previous written or oral agreement between the
Parties in relation to the matters dealt with herein and therein.
(k)    Purchaser acknowledges that it has not been induced to enter into this
Agreement by any representation, warranty assurance, commitment, statement or
undertaking not expressly incorporated into it and agrees that it will not
contend to the contrary.
(l)    So far as is permitted by Law, Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that its
only right and remedy in relation to any provision of this Agreement shall be
for breach of the terms of this Agreement to the exclusion of all other rights
and remedies (including those in tort or arising under statute), including any
right to rescind this Agreement.
(m)    If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any
other Transaction Document, this Agreement shall prevail (as between the Parties
and as between any of Parent’s Affiliates and any of Purchaser’s Affiliates) to
the extent of the inconsistency, unless otherwise expressly agreed.

bear all costs incurred by it in connection with the preparation, negotiation

Section 10.6    Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Specific Performance.
(j)    THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NON-CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS ARISING OUT OF OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY PRINCIPLES OF
CONFLICTS OF LAW OR CHOICE OF LAW THAT WOULD HAVE THE EFFECT OF GIVING EFFECT TO
THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION).
(k)    Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to
the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York and in the courts hearing appeals therefrom unless
no basis for federal jurisdiction exists, in which event each Party irrevocably
consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, New York County, and the courts hearing appeals therefrom,
for any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or
otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not personally subject to
the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason, other than the failure
to serve process in accordance with this Section 10.6, that it or its property
is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal
process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment,

-76-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, that the Action in any such court is brought in an inconvenient
forum, that the venue of such Action is improper, or that this Agreement, or the
subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further
irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the
benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy, execution or
collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final
judgment of any court having jurisdiction. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
(l)    Purchaser hereby irrevocably designates Chief Counsel, US Regulatory and
Corp., located at Royal Bank of Canada, 3 World Financial Centre, 200 Vesey St –
14th Floor, New York, NY 10281-8098, United States (in such capacity, the
“Process Agent”) its designee, appointee and agent to receive, for and on its
behalf, service of process in such jurisdiction in any Action arising out of or
relating to this Agreement and such service shall be deemed complete upon
delivery thereof to the Process Agent; provided that in the case of any such
service upon the Process Agent, the Party effecting such service shall also
deliver a copy thereof to Purchaser in the manner provided in Section 10.1. Each
Party further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the
aforementioned courts in any such Action by the mailing of copies thereof by
registered mail, postage prepaid, to such party at its address specified
pursuant to Section 10.1, such service of process to be effective upon
acknowledgment of receipt of such registered mail.
(m)    Each Party expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are intended
to be irrevocable under the laws of the State of New York and of the United
States of America; provided that consent by Purchaser to jurisdiction and
service contained in this Section 10.6 is solely for the purpose referred to in
this Section 10.6 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to said
courts or in the State of New York other than for such purpose.
(n)    Each Party acknowledges that, other than as provided in Section 8.8, it
would be impossible to determine the amount of damages that would result from
any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement and that, in view of the
uniqueness of the subject matter of this Agreement, the remedy at law for any
breach, or threatened breach, of any of such provisions would be inadequate and,
accordingly, agrees that, other than as provided in Section 8.8, the other
Party, in addition to any other rights or remedies which it may have, shall be
entitled to specific performance of this Agreement and any of the terms of this
Agreement (including the respective obligations of Purchaser and Parent under
Section 5.1, Section 5.6 and Section 5.14) and such other equitable and
injunctive relief available to the Parties from any arbitral tribunal of
competent jurisdiction to compel specific performance of, or restrain any Party
from violating, any of such provisions. In connection with any action or
proceeding for equitable and injunctive relief permitted hereunder, other than
as provided in Section 8.8, each Party hereby waives any claim or defense that a
remedy at law alone is adequate and, to the maximum extent permitted by Law,
agrees to have each provision of this Agreement (including the respective
obligations of Purchaser and Parent under Section 5.1, Section 5.6 and Section
5.14) specifically enforced against it, without the necessity of posting bond or
other

-77-
SC1:3314648.6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

security against it, and consents to the entry of equitable and injunctive
relief against it enjoining or restraining any breach or threatened breach of
any provision of this Agreement.
Section 10.7    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to constitute an original and all of
which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement
shall become binding when any number of counterparts, individually or taken
together, shall bear the signatures of both Parties. This Agreement may be
executed and delivered by facsimile or any other electronic means, including
“.pdf” or “.tiff” files, and any facsimile or electronic signature shall
constitute an original for all purposes.
Section 10.8    Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed
severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not
affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any
provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any
circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable, (a) a suitable and equitable
provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be
valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable
provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such
provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such
invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability
affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application
thereof, in any other jurisdiction.
Section 10.9    Amendments; Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be
amended if, and only if, such amendment is in writing and signed by and on
behalf of Parent and Purchaser. Any provision of this Agreement may be waived if
such waiver is in writing and signed by and on behalf of the Party against whom
such waiver is to be enforced. No waiver of any breach of this Agreement will be
implied from any forbearance or failure of a Party to take action thereon.
Section 10.10    Payments. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, all payments to be made under this Agreement shall be made in
full, without any set‑off or deduction for or on account of any counterclaim.
Any payment to be made under this Agreement shall be effected by crediting for
same day value the account specified by the Party entitled to the payment on or
before the due date for payment.
