 Exhibit 10.10 

General Electric Company 
 41 Farnsworth Street 

Boston, MA 02210 
 RE:
Non-Competition Agreement 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

This agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of [●], 2017, by and between GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY, a New York
corporation (“GE”), and BEAR NEWCO, INC., a Delaware Corporation (“Newco” and, together with GE, the “Parties”). 

Newco and GE hereby agree as follows: 

1.    Non-Competition Covenant. Except as permitted pursuant to
Section 2, from the Closing, for the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the second anniversary of the Trigger Date, no member of the GE Group shall own, manage, operate or engage in, directly or indirectly, a Competing
Business anywhere in the world. 
 2.    Exceptions to Non-Competition
Covenant. 
 (a)    Notwithstanding Section 1, and without implicitly agreeing that the
following activities would be subject to the provisions of Section 1, nothing in Section 1 shall preclude, prohibit or restrict any member of the GE Group from engaging in any manner in any:
(i) Existing Business; (ii) De Minimis Business; (iii) Financial Services Business; (iv) Additive Activities; (v) IIOT Enabling Activities; or (vi) Control Systems Activities. 

(b)    With respect to the Competing Business of any After-Acquired Business, no member of the GE Group shall be subject
to the restrictions set forth in Section 1 with respect to such Competing Business, so long as (i) 50% or less of the revenue of such After-Acquired Business in the most recently completed calendar year was generated from
such Competing Business, and (ii) prior to the expiration of the Post-Acquisition Period, (A) the applicable member of the GE Group executes a definitive agreement for, and consummates, the Sale of all (but not less than all) of the
Competing Business (in accordance with Section 3(a)) or of all (but not less than all) of the O&G Contractual Obligations of the Non-Segregable Competing Business (in accordance with Section 3(c)), as applicable, or (B) the
Competing Business of such After-Acquired Business complies with the non-competition covenant described in Section 1 (subject to any applicable exceptions in
Section 2). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability of the GE Seller to operate the Competing Business during the applicable Post-Acquisition Period prior to the expiration thereof.

 3.    Competing Business.  

(a)    Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, subject to Section 3(b), prior to any Sale of a Competing Business,
the applicable member of the GE Group (the “GE Seller”) shall first, as soon as reasonably practicable following the consummation of the acquisition of such 

  
 1 








 
Competing Business by the GE Seller and within the applicable Post-Acquisition Period, deliver a written notice (the “Offer Notice”) to Newco or its designated Subsidiary (the
“Newco Buyer”) setting forth (i) the price for all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business (which such price shall be the fair market value, as reasonably determined by GE, taking into consideration, as applicable,
the terms upon which the GE Group acquired such Competing Business) and (ii) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed Sale. The receipt of the Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer shall constitute an exclusive offer by the GE Seller
to Sell all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to the Newco Buyer at the price and on the terms as set forth in the Offer Notice (the “Offer”). The Offer shall remain open and irrevocable for a period of sixty
(60) days after receipt of such Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer (the “Offer Period”). The Newco Buyer shall have, during the Offer Period, reasonable access to the properties and books and records of such Competing Business as
is customary for comparable transactions, subject to a customary confidentiality agreement. If the Newco Buyer accepts the Offer at any time prior to the expiration of the Offer Period by written notice delivered to, and received by, the GE Seller,
the GE Seller and the Newco Buyer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following such acceptance, negotiate in good faith, on an arms’ length basis and consistent with the terms of the Offer Notice, the other terms and conditions (to the
extent not otherwise specified in the Offer Notice) of, and enter into, the definitive agreement for the Sale by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business. The GE Seller and the Newco Buyer shall
consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of such definitive agreement, and after any applicable regulatory approvals
have been obtained, any required notices have been filed or made and any waiting periods imposed by the applicable Governmental Entities necessary to consummate such Sale have expired or been terminated (such approval, notices and waiting periods
collectively, the “Regulatory Conditions”). In the event that the Newco Buyer does not notify the GE Seller in writing of its desire to accept the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, or such Sale of such Competing
Business from the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer is not consummated for any other reason, the GE Seller shall thereafter use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to a
third party; provided that, such Competing Business is Sold (x) for an amount not less than the offer price included in the Offer Notice and (y) otherwise on terms and conditions no less favorable in the aggregate to the GE Seller
than those specified in the Offer Notice. In the event the GE Seller fails to so consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to a third party, the GE Seller shall promptly deliver a revised written notice to the
Newco Buyer (the “Revised Offer Notice”) setting forth (A) the revised price for all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business (which such price shall be the fair market value, as reasonably determined by GE, taking
into consideration, as applicable, the terms upon which the GE Group acquired such Competing Business) and (B) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed Sale. The receipt of the Revised Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer shall
constitute an exclusive offer by the GE Seller to Sell all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to the Newco Buyer at the price as set forth in the Revised Offer Notice (the “Revised Offer”). The Revised Offer shall
remain open and irrevocable until the expiration of thirty (30) days after receipt of such Revised Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer (the “Revised Offer Period”). If the Newco Buyer accepts the Revised Offer at any time prior to
the expiration of the Revised Offer Period by written notice delivered to, and received by, the GE Seller, the GE Seller and the Newco 

  
 2 








 
Buyer shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following such acceptance, negotiate in good faith, on an arms’ length basis and consistent with the terms of the Revised Offer Notice the
other terms and conditions (to the extent not otherwise specified in the Revised Offer Notice) of, and enter into, the definitive agreement for the Sale by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business.
The GE Seller and the Newco Buyer shall consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of such definitive agreement, and
after satisfaction of any applicable Regulatory Conditions. In the event that the Newco Buyer does not accept the Revised Offer Notice, or such Sale of the Competing Business from the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer is not consummated for any other
reason, the GE Seller shall thereafter continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to a third party; provided that, such Competing Business is Sold
(x) for an amount not less than the offer price included in the Revised Offer Notice and (y) otherwise on terms and conditions no less favorable in the aggregate to the GE Seller than those specified in the Revised Offer Notice. To the
extent the GE Seller continues to fail to so consummate the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to a third party, the GE Seller shall continue to deliver further revised written offer notices to the Newco Buyer with
respect to such Competing Business, and in the event that a Sale of such Competing Business from the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer is not consummated, the GE Seller shall thereafter continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to consummate
the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such Competing Business to a third party, in each case, in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 3(a). For avoidance of doubt, such Competing Business shall not be subject to the
provisions of Section 1 until the expiration of the applicable Post-Acquisition Period. 

(b)    With respect to the Competing Business of any After-Acquired Business, GE may elect, in its sole discretion, to
undertake a reasonable determination as to whether such Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell taking into account in such objective determination, among other appropriate considerations, as applicable, the (A) feasibility of
separation of technological architecture or the digital offering, if any, in a manner that would not significantly impair its functionality or value; (B) feasibility of separation of shared manufacturing or service infrastructure; and
(C) operational complexity for provision of support or other services. If GE elects to undertake such a determination, the applicable GE Seller shall deliver to the Conflicts Committee, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event, no
later than the date of the consummation of the acquisition of such Competing Business by the GE Seller, a written notice (the “Consultation Notice”) (i) of such acquisition of such Competing Business by the GE Seller and
(ii) setting forth in reasonable detail such GE Seller’s conclusion that such Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell. For a period of twenty (20) days following the receipt of the Consultation Notice (the
“Consultation Period”), the Conflicts Committee shall have reasonable access to the copies of the relevant diligence materials of the Competing Business of such After-Acquired Business, subject to a customary confidentiality
agreement, setting forth the basis for the GE Seller’s conclusion and shall consult with the GE Seller in good faith with respect to such conclusion. The GE Seller shall take into consideration reasonable justifications of the Conflicts
Committee that such Competing Business is not unreasonably burdensome to Sell. In the event that the GE Seller and the Conflicts Committee both agree that such Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell, such Competing Business shall be
deemed a Non-Segregable Competing Business and shall be subject to the 

  
 3 








 
process set forth in Section 3(c) (a “Non-Segregable Determination”). If the GE Seller and the Conflicts Committee after good faith effort fail to come to an agreement as
to whether such Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell prior to the expiration of the Consultation Period, the parties shall submit such Dispute for resolution under the procedures set forth in Section 3(d). A final
determination under such procedures that such Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell shall constitute a Non-Segregable Determination for all purposes hereunder. In the absence of a Non-Segregable Determination, such Competing Business
shall not be considered a Non-Segregable Competing Business for any purpose hereunder and shall be subject in all respects to the process set forth in Section 3(a). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Competing
Business of an After-Acquired Business shall be considered a Non-Segregable Competing Business or be eligible for the process set forth in Section 3(c) if more than twenty percent (20%) or $350 million of its revenue in the most recently
completed calendar year was generated from the Competing Business. 
 (c)    In the event of a Non-Segregable
Determination, the GE Seller shall deliver a written notice (the “O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Notice”) to the Newco Buyer setting forth (i) the list of the O&G Contractual Obligations of such Non-Segregable
Competing Business then in effect and (ii) the price for all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations (which such price shall be the fair market value, as reasonably determined by GE in good faith based on the aggregate
purchase price paid or payable by GE for the After-Acquired Business, taking into consideration, as applicable, the terms upon which the GE Group acquired such Non-Segregable Competing Business). The receipt of the O&G Contractual Obligations
Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer shall constitute an exclusive offer by the GE Seller to Sell all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations to the Newco Buyer at the price and on the terms as set forth in the O&G Contractual
Obligations Offer Notice (the “O&G Contractual Obligations Offer”). The O&G Contractual Obligations Offer shall remain open and irrevocable for a period of sixty (60) days after receipt of such O&G Contractual
Obligations Offer Notice by the Newco Buyer (the “O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Period”). The Newco Buyer shall have, during the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Period, reasonable access to the copies of such O&G
Contractual Obligations, subject to customary confidentiality agreement. If the Newco Buyer accepts the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer at any time prior to the expiration of the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Period by written notice
delivered to, and received by, the GE Seller, the parties shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following such acceptance, negotiate in good faith, on an arms’ length basis and consistent with the terms of the O&G Contractual Obligations
Offer the other terms and conditions (to the extent not otherwise specified in the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Notice) of (A) the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations by the GE Seller to the
Newco Buyer and (B) the segment strategy of serving the customers’ requirements, it being understood that the Newco Buyer shall serve as the Leading Party (as defined in the Channel Agreement) with respect to all (but not less than all) of
the O&G Products and Services in the applicable O&G Activities of such Non-Segregable Competing Business pursuant to a Competing Products and Services Channel (as defined in the Channel Agreement), and enter into a definitive agreement for
such Sale as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The GE Seller and the Newco Buyer shall consummate such Sale of all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer as soon as reasonably
practicable following the execution of such definitive agreement, and after satisfaction of any applicable Regulatory 

  
 4 








 
Conditions. The O&G Contractual Obligations of such Non-Segregable Competing Business shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the Channel Agreement (including,
for avoidance of doubt, the allocation and other provisions set forth in the applicable Channel Policies under the Channel Agreement) until the GE Seller and the Newco Buyer consummate a Sale of all (but not less than all) of such O&G
Contractual Obligations, and in the event that the Newco Buyer does not notify the GE Seller in writing of its desire to accept the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer prior to the expiration of the O&G Contractual Obligations Offer Period,
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Channel Agreement shall continue to be inapplicable to such Non-Segregable Competing Business, and nothing herein shall limit the ability of the GE Seller to operate such Non-Segregable Competing
Business. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, any Non-Segregable Competing Business acquired by any member of the GE Group following the Trigger Date shall not be considered a Competing Business for all purposes of this Agreement and the Channel
Agreement, and no member of the GE Group shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 1 with respect to such Non-Segregable Competing Business. 

(d)    In the event (i) the GE Seller and the Conflicts Committee after good faith effort fail to come to an
agreement as to whether a Competing Business is unreasonably burdensome to Sell prior to the expiration of the Consultation Period or (ii) the Newco Buyer disagrees with any matter in respect of a O&G Contractual Obligations Offer for all
(but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations after a good faith effort to come to an agreement (in the case of both clause (i) and (ii), a “O&G Contractual Obligations Dispute”), the Newco Buyer shall
submit to GE Seller a written notice of such disagreement in reasonable detail, including, if applicable, the price at which the Newco Buyer proposes to purchase such O&G Contractual Obligations, and the GE Seller and the Newco Buyer shall
submit for final resolution to a nationally recognized consulting firm mutually acceptable to both parties (the “Segregation Expert”) their respective written submissions setting forth in reasonable detail their respective views as
to the correct nature of the O&G Contractual Obligations Dispute, including the price for such O&G Contractual Obligations, if applicable, and reflecting any discussions between the parties. To the extent the O&G Contractual Obligations
Dispute includes a dispute as to the purchase price applicable to such O&G Contractual Obligations, the parties shall instruct the Segregation Expert to determine which of the parties’ respective written submissions most closely reflects
the fair market value for such O&G Contractual Obligations, and taking into consideration, as applicable, the aggregate purchase price paid or payable by GE for the After-Acquired Business and the terms upon which the GE Group acquired such
Non-Segregable Competing Business. With respect to such valuation issues, the Segregation Expert shall determine the fair market value for such O&G Contractual Obligations within thirty (30) days following its appointment by the parties by
selecting either of the prices set forth in the parties’ respective written submissions, and taking into consideration, as applicable, the aggregate purchase price paid or payable by GE for the After-Acquired Business and the terms upon which
the GE Group acquired such Non-Segregable Competing Business. The decision by the Segregation Expert in accordance with this Section 3(d) shall be final and binding on each party. Each party shall bear the costs and expenses of the
Segregation Expert equally. For avoidance of doubt, the O&G Contractual Obligation Dispute resolution in this Section 3 shall be subject to the prohibition on the parties to commence or voluntarily participate in a
court action or proceeding prior to the Trigger Date, as set forth in Section 8(b). 

  
 5 








 (e)    The receipt by the Newco Buyer of a written notice from the GE Seller
of the final resolution by the Segregation Expert under the procedures set forth in Section 3(d) with respect to such O&G Contractual Obligations shall constitute an exclusive offer by the GE Seller to Sell all (but not less than all) of
such O&G Contractual Obligations to the Newco Buyer at the price and on the terms as set forth in such written notice (the “Final Offer”). The Final Offer shall remain open and irrevocable until the expiration of ten
(10) days after receipt by the Newco Buyer of the Final Offer (the “Final Offer Period”). If the Newco Buyer accepts the Final Offer at any time prior to the expiration of the Final Offer Period by written notice delivered to,
and received by, the GE Seller, the parties shall, as soon as reasonably practicable following such acceptance, negotiate in good faith, on an arms’ length basis consistent with the terms of the Final Offer the other terms and conditions (to
the extent not otherwise specified in the Final Offer) of (x) the Sale of all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer and (y) the segment strategy of serving the customers’
requirements, it being understood that the Newco Buyer shall serve as the Leading Party (as defined in the Channel Agreement) with respect to all (but not less than all) of the O&G Products and Services in the applicable O&G Activities of
such Non-Segregable Competing Business pursuant to a Competing Products and Services Channel (as defined in the Channel Agreement), and enter into a definitive agreement for such Sale as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The GE Seller and
the Newco Buyer shall consummate such Sale of all (but not less than all) of such O&G Contractual Obligations by the GE Seller to the Newco Buyer as soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of such definitive agreement, and after
satisfaction of any applicable Regulatory Conditions. In the event that the Newco Buyer does not notify the GE Seller in writing of its desire to accept the Final Offer prior to the expiration of the Final Offer Period, the terms and conditions of
this Agreement and the Channel Agreement shall continue to be inapplicable to such Non-Segregable Competing Business, and nothing herein shall limit the ability of the GE Seller to operate such Non-Segregable Competing Business. 

4.    Supply Agreement. During the period of two (2) years following the Trigger Date (the “Tail
Period”), if a member of the Newco Group (the “Newco Purchaser”) reduces in any given six-month period (which period starts at any point of time after the Trigger Date) the GE
Sourcing Costs Share with respect to any Seller Good that it purchases from a member of the GE Group (the “GE Supplier”) pursuant to the Supply Agreement by thirty percent (30%) as compared to the GE Sourcing Costs Share with
respect to such Seller Good purchased from GE Supplier in the most recently completed calendar year prior to the Trigger Date, and the GE Supplier (a) has available capacity to supply such Seller Good pursuant to the Supply Agreement and
(b) is not in material breach of the Supply Agreement (which such breach is incapable of being satisfied or cured by the GE Supplier within thirty (30) calendar days following receipt of written notice from the Newco Purchaser of such
breach), then Section 1 shall no longer restrict the GE Supplier from selling such Seller Good during the remainder of the Tail Period. Upon reasonable request from the applicable GE Supplier, Newco shall, or shall cause
the applicable Newco Purchaser to, provide to the applicable requesting GE Supplier, in reasonable detail, the GE Sourcing Costs Share with respect to applicable time periods. For purposes of this Section 4, “GE
Sourcing Costs Share” means the quotient of (a) the amount of the sourcing costs incurred by the Newco Purchaser with respect to any Seller Good (as defined in the Supply Agreement) purchased by the Newco Purchaser from the GE Supplier
in any given period of time divided by (b) the aggregate amount of the sourcing costs incurred by the Newco Group with respect to such Seller Good purchased by the Newco Group from the GE Group and third party suppliers in the same
period of time.

 5.    Remedies. The covenants and undertakings contained in this
Agreement relate to matters which are of a special, unique and extraordinary character and a violation of the terms will cause irreparable injury to Newco, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be
adequately compensated. Accordingly, the remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement will be inadequate. Therefore, Newco will be entitled, subject to Section 8 (including the prohibition on the Parties to commence or
voluntarily participate in a court action or proceeding prior to the Trigger Date, as set forth in Section 8(b)) and Section 3(d), to an injunction, restraining order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction
in the event of a breach of this Agreement without the necessity of posting any bond or other indemnity. The rights and remedies provided by this Section 5 are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies which
Newco may have hereunder or at law or in equity. 
 6.    Amendment; Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may
be amended or modified except by written instrument signed by all the Parties to such agreement; provided that any material amendment or modification of this Agreement shall require the prior written approval of the Conflicts Committee or its
authorized designee. Either Party may, in its sole discretion, waive any and all rights granted to it in this Agreement; provided that no waiver by either Party of any provision hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing
and executed by the Party so waiving; provided, further, that any waiver of any or all of Newco’s material rights granted under this Agreement shall require the prior written approval of the Conflicts Committee or its authorized
designee. The waiver by either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other subsequent breach. 

7.    Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiary. This Agreement shall not be assigned by either Party without the
prior written consent of the other Party. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties to the Agreement and the members of their respective Group and their permitted successors and assigns (but not any Person (or its Affiliates) that
purchases the products, parts, equipment, services, technology or systems from any member of the Newco Group or the GE Group under this Agreement), and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other)
Person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. 

8.    Dispute Resolution. 

(a)    Except with respect to any Dispute pursuant to Section 3, any dispute, controversy or
claim arising out of, in connection with, or relating to this Agreement, or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination thereof, (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in this
Section 8, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such Dispute unless otherwise specified below. The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute by negotiation between the
senior business leader or officer of the applicable GE business or unit, on the one hand, and the Conflicts Committee, on the other hand (or their respective authorized designees). Either Party may initiate the negotiation process


  
 7 








 
by providing a written notice to the other (the “Initial Notice”). Fifteen (15) days after delivery of the Initial Notice, the receiving Party shall submit to the other a
written response (the “Response”). The Initial Notice and the Response shall include (i) a statement of the Dispute and of each Party’s position and (ii) the name and title of any person that will represent that Party
and of any other person who will accompany such person. Such meeting may be in person or by telephone within ten (10) Business Days of the date of the Response to seek a resolution of the Dispute. If a Dispute is not resolved by negotiation as
provided above within thirty (30) days from the delivery of the Response, then either Party may submit the Dispute for resolution by mediation pursuant to the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution (the “CPR”) Model Mediation
Procedure as then in effect. The Parties will select a mediator from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals. If the Parties are unable to select a mutually agreeable mediator within twenty (20) days following the submission of the Dispute to
the CPR, the CPR shall select the mediator from the CPR Panels of Distinguished Neutrals. Either Party at commencement of the mediation may ask the mediator to provide an evaluation of the Dispute and the Parties’ relative positions. 

(b)    If a Dispute is not resolved by mediation within thirty (30) days of the selection of a mediator (unless the
mediator chooses to withdraw sooner), the dispute shall be resolved through arbitration. Either Party may submit the Dispute to be finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to the CPR Rules for Non-Administered
Arbitration as then in effect (the “CPR Arbitration Rules”). The Parties consent to a single, consolidated arbitration for all known Disputes existing at the time of the arbitration and for which arbitration is permitted. The
neutral organization for purposes of the CPR Arbitration Rules will be the CPR. The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three (3) arbitrators, of whom each Party shall appoint one (1) in accordance with the “screened”
appointment procedure provided in Rule 5.4 of the CPR Arbitration Rules, and the third arbitrator shall be nominated by agreement of the two party-nominated arbitrators. The arbitration shall be conducted in New York City. Each Party shall be
permitted to present its case, witnesses and evidence, if any, in the presence of the other Party. A written transcript of the proceedings shall be made and furnished to the Parties. The arbitrators shall determine the Dispute in accordance with the
Law of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of law rules or other rules that might render such Law inapplicable or unavailable, and shall apply this Agreement and the Transaction Documents according to their respective terms;
provided, however, that the provisions of this Agreement relating to arbitration shall in any event be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq. The Parties agree to be bound by any award or
order resulting from any arbitration conducted in accordance with this Section 8 and further agree that judgment on any award or order resulting from an arbitration conducted under this Section 8
may be entered and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, including the provisions of Section 3(d), prior to the Trigger Date, no Party will commence or
voluntarily participate in any court action or proceeding concerning a Dispute, and following the Trigger Date, only (i) for enforcement, (ii) to restrict or vacate an arbitral decision based on the grounds specified under applicable Law
or (iii) for interim relief. For purposes of the foregoing, with respect to such action following the Trigger Date, the Parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New
York. 

  
 8 








 (c)    In addition to the authority otherwise conferred on the arbitral
tribunal, the tribunal shall have the authority to make such orders for interim relief, including injunctive relief, as it may deem just and equitable. The tribunal shall further have the authority to resolve any challenge to its jurisdiction,
including challenges to the existence of a valid arbitration agreement or the scope of this agreement. If the tribunal shall not have been appointed, either Party may seek interim relief from a court having jurisdiction if the award to which the
applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without such interim relief. Upon appointment of the tribunal following any grant of interim relief by a court, the tribunal may affirm or disaffirm such relief, and the Parties will seek
modification or rescission of the court action as necessary to accord with the tribunal’s decision. Each Party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the resolution of any Dispute in accordance with this
Section 8. Commencing with a request contemplated by this Section 8, all communications between the Parties or their Representatives in connection with the attempted resolution of any Dispute,
including any mediator’s evaluation, shall be deemed to have been delivered in furtherance of a Dispute settlement and shall be exempt from discovery and production, and shall not be admissible in evidence for any reason (whether as an
admission or otherwise), in any arbitral or other proceeding for the resolution of the Dispute. The Parties expressly waive and forego any right to (i) any special, indirect, incidental, punitive, consequential, exemplary, statutorily enhanced
or similar damages, in excess of compensatory damages (provided that liability for any such damages to the extent awarded to a third party shall be considered direct damages and for the avoidance of doubt compensatory damages shall include lost
profits to the extent awarded) and (ii) trial by jury. The specific procedures set forth in this Section 8, including but not limited to the time limits referenced therein, may be modified by agreement of the Parties
in writing. All applicable statutes of limitations and defenses based upon the passage of time shall be tolled while the procedures specified in this Section 8 are pending. The Parties will take such action, if any,
required to effectuate such tolling. 
 9.    Miscellaneous. The provisions of Sections 7.2 (Governing Law), 7.4
(Notices), 7.5 (Severability), 7.6 (Entire Agreement), 7.9 (Interpretations) (but excluding the entire sentence “References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns” in that Section) and 7.11 (Counterparts; Electronic
Transmission of Signatures) of the Stockholders Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Agreement mutatis mutandis, as if references to the Stockholders Agreement were references to this Agreement. Upon receipt of a reasonable written
information request from Newco regarding compliance by the GE Group with the provisions of this Agreement specified in such request, GE shall provide to Newco reasonably necessary information in respect thereof. 

10.    Certain Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the respective
meanings assigned to such terms in that certain Stockholders Agreement, dated the date hereof, between GE and Newco (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms, the “Stockholders Agreement”).
