before the Separation Date; provided, however, that Manitex and Terex shall not be liable for or pay, and shall not indemnify or hold harmless ASV from and against any Taxes imposed on ASV or for which ASV may otherwise be liable as a result of

by Manitex. Tax Returns prepared or caused to be prepared by ASV pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice unless otherwise required by applicable law. Manitex on the one hand, and ASV on the
other hand shall cooperate (and cause their affiliates to cooperate) with each other and with each other’s agents in connection with Tax matters. Such cooperation shall include each Party, upon reasonable request by the other Party, making

faith any changes to such Tax Returns reasonably requested by Manitex. Any Taxes for a tax period beginning on or before the Separation Date and ending after the Separation Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be allocated to the
portion of such period ending on the Separation Date (i) in the case of real and personal property taxes and franchise taxes not based on gross or net income, on a per diem basis and, (ii) in the case of other Taxes, shall be determined

respect to any Tax for which Manitex and Terex could be liable pursuant to Section 3.01(a), ASV shall promptly notify Manitex and Terex in writing. If ASV becomes aware of any official inquiry, examination or proceeding that could result in
an official determination with respect to Taxes related to the business, activities or assets of the ASV for which Manitex and Terex could be liable pursuant to Section 3.01(a), ASV shall promptly so notify Manitex and Terex in writing. 

(b) Subject to the next to the last sentence of this Section 3.02(b), Manitex shall have the right to exercise control over the contest
and/or settlement of any issue raised in any official inquiry, examination or proceeding with respect to any return for Taxes or any inquiry, examination or proceeding that relates only to Taxes for which Manitex and Terex are liable under
Section 3.01(a), and Manitex and Terex shall be responsible on a pro rata basis reflecting their respective equity interest in ASV for any expenses incurred in connection therewith; provided, however, that Manitex may not settle or compromise
any issue that could affect the liability of ASV for any tax period beginning after the Separation Date without the consent of ASV, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. ASV shall cooperate with Manitex, as Manitex may reasonably
request, in any such inquiry, examination or proceeding. If Manitex does not notify ASV in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of any such inquiry, examination or proceeding, that Manitex elects to exercise control over the
contest and/or settlement thereof, ASV shall exercise such control, and ASV shall pay any reasonable expenses connected therewith. No settlement of any inquiry, examination or proceeding over which ASV shall exercise control and with respect to

and all Persons who at any time on or prior to the Separation have been members, managers, shareholders, directors, officers, agents or employees of any such Person, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, from
any and all ASV Liabilities, Manitex Liabilities and Terex Liabilities, respectively, whether at Law or in equity (including any right of contribution or recovery), whether arising under any contract or agreement, by operation of Law or otherwise,
existing or arising from any acts or events occurring or failing to occur or alleged to have occurred or to have failed to occur or any conditions existing or alleged to have existed on or before the Separation, including in connection with the
Separation, the Initial Public Offering and all other activities to implement any such transactions. 
 (b) Nothing contained in Section
4.01(a) shall (i) impair any right of any Person to enforce this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement, any other agreement entered into between the Parties, in each case in accordance with their terms, or any right arising in the ordinary
course of business between the Parties, (ii) release any Person from any Liability under or pursuant to (A) this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement, any other agreement entered into between the Parties before or after the Separation or
incurred in the ordinary course of business, or (B) any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person not otherwise intended to be released pursuant to this Section 4.01, or (iii) affect
the indemnification obligations of the Parties under Article X of Limited Liability Company Agreement of ASV, as in effect on the date on which the event or circumstances giving rise to such indemnification obligation occur. 

Section 4.02 Indemnification by ASV. Subject to Section 4.04, ASV shall indemnify, defend and
hold harmless Manitex, Terex and each other member of the Manitex Group and the Terex Group and each of their respective former and current managers, directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any
of the foregoing (collectively, the “Manitex-Terex Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Liabilities of the Manitex-Terex Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from (i) any ASV Liability, including the
failure of ASV or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any ASV Liability in accordance with its terms, and (ii) any breach by ASV of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly
provides for separate indemnification therein (which shall be controlling). 
 Section 4.03 Indemnification by Manitex and

 7 








 
managers, directors, officers and employees, and the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “ASV Indemnitees”), from and against any
and all Liabilities of the ASV Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from (i) any Manitex or Terex Liability, respectively, including the failure of such Party or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge
any such Liability in accordance with its terms, and (ii) any breach by such Party of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein (which shall be
controlling). 
 Section 4.04 Indemnification Obligations Net of Third-Party Proceeds. The amount that any Party (an
“Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement (an “Indemnitee”) will be reduced by any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnitee
from any third party with respect to such Liability (including any insurance proceeds), net of any applicable premium adjustments, costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof and any taxes resulting from the receipt thereof
(“Third-Party Proceeds”). If an Indemnitee receives a payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability (an “Indemnity Payment”) and subsequently receives Third-Party Proceeds
in respect of such Liability, then the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if such Third-Party Proceeds had
been received before the Indemnity Payment was made. 
 Section 4.05 Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims. 

(a) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of a Third-Party Claim with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be
obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party reasonable written notice thereof as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such Third-Party
Claim. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this ARTICLE IV, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. 

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnitee within 30 calendar days after receipt of
notice from an Indemnitee (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so requires), to assume and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee;
provided, however, that (i) the defense of such Third-Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party will not, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnitee, affect the Indemnitee or any of its controlled affiliates in a materially adverse
manner and (ii) the Third-Party Claim solely seeks (and continues to seek) monetary damages (the conditions set forth in this proviso, the “Litigation Condition”). If the Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense of a
Third-Party Claim (or is not permitted to assume the defense due to the Litigation Condition), or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election, such Indemnitee may defend such Third-Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. If
the Indemnifying Party elects (and is permitted) to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitees shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, cooperate with the Indemnifying Party with respect to the defense of such Third-Party
Claim. 

  
 8 








 (c) If the Indemnifying Party elects (and is permitted) to assume the defense of a Third-Party
Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any additional legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim; provided,
however, that if (i) the Litigation Condition ceases to be met or (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee may assume its own defense, and the
Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but, subject to the prior
sentence, not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. In the event, however, that such Indemnitee reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the
Indemnifying Party of both such Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee could reasonably be expected to present such counsel with a conflict of interest, then the Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent or defend it in any such action or
proceeding and the Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. 
 (d) No Indemnifying Party shall consent
to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the consent of the applicable Indemnitee or Indemnitees; provided, however, that such Indemnitee(s) shall be required to consent to entry of
judgment or to such settlement that (i) contains no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person, (ii) involves only monetary relief which the Indemnifying Party has agreed to pay and
(iii) includes a full and unconditional release of the Indemnitee. 
 (e) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of
a Third-Party Claim, no Indemnitee shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed). 
 Section 4.06 Additional Matters. 

(a) Any claim on account of a Liability that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by reasonably prompt written notice
given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of 30 calendar days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day
period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such Party as contemplated by this Agreement. 

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

  
 9 








 (c) In the event of an Action relating to a Liability that has been allocated to an Indemnifying
Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if the Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the
named defendant or add the Indemnifying Party as an additional named defendant, if at all practicable. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to
manage the Action and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all reasonable costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys’ fees, experts, fees and all other
external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement. 

Section 4.07 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this ARTICLE IV shall be exclusive and, subject to the
provisions of ARTICLE VII, shall preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party. 

Section 4.08 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of ASV, Manitex and Terex and their respective
Indemnitees under this ARTICLE IV shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party or its affiliates of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities. 

Section 4.09 Limitation on Liability. Except as may expressly be set forth in this Agreement, none of ASV, Manitex, Terex or any
other member of the Manitex Group or Terex Group shall in any event have any Liability to the other or to any other member of the other’s Group, or to any other ASV Indemnitee or Manitex-Terex Indemnitee, as applicable, under this Agreement
(i) with respect to any matter to the extent that such Party seeking indemnification has engaged in any knowing violation of Law or fraud in connection therewith or (ii) for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages, whether
or not caused by or resulting from negligence or breach of obligations hereunder and whether or not informed of the possibility of the existence of such damages; provided, however, that the provisions of this
Section 4.09 (ii) shall not limit an Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to any Liability any Indemnitee may have to any third party not affiliated with ASV or any member of the
Manitex Group or the Terex Group for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages. 
 ARTICLE V 

Access to Information; Confidentiality 

Section 5.01 Agreement for Exchange of Information; Archives. 

(a) Except in the case of an adversarial Action or threatened adversarial Action by either ASV, Manitex or Terex or a Person or Persons in its
Group against the other Party or a 

  
 10 








 
Person or Persons in its Group, and subject to Section 5.01(b), each of ASV and Manitex and Terex, on behalf of its respective Group, shall provide to the other Party, at any time after
the Separation, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, reasonable access to the documents and employees of such Party, which the requesting Party reasonably needs (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing,
notification or other requirements imposed by any law, national securities exchange or by any governmental authority, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other Action or in order to satisfy audit, accounting,
regulatory, litigation or other similar requirements or (iii) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. The receiving Party shall use information received pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) solely to
the extent reasonably necessary to satisfy the applicable obligations or requirements described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence. The requesting Party shall reimburse the other Parties for the reasonable direct
out-of-pocket costs, if any, resulting from such request and access. No Party shall have any Liability to the other Parties for any information exchanged or provided
pursuant to this Agreement, in the absence of willful misconduct. 
 (b) In the event that any of the Parties reasonably determines that the
exchange of any Information pursuant to Section 5.01(a) could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or agreement or waive or jeopardize any attorney-client privilege or attorney work product protection, such Party shall not be required
to provide such access to the other Party; provided, however, that each of the Parties shall take all commercially reasonable measures to permit compliance with Section 5.01(a) in a manner that avoids any such harm or
consequence. Each of the Parties intends that any provision of access pursuant to this Section 5.01 that would otherwise be within the ambit of any legal privilege shall not operate as waiver of such privilege. 

(c) Each of ASV, Manitex and Terex agrees, on behalf of itself and each member of the Group of which it is a member, as applicable, not to
disclose or otherwise waive any privilege or protection attaching to any privileged Information relating to a member of the other Group or relating to or arising in connection with the relationship between the Groups prior to the Separation, without
providing prompt written notice to and obtaining the prior written consent of the other (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

Section 5.02 Record Retention. To facilitate the possible exchange of information pursuant to this ARTICLE V and other
provisions of this Agreement, each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to retain all information in such Party’s possession relating to the other Party or its businesses, Assets or Liabilities, this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements

Section 5.03 Confidential Information. 

(a) Each Party, on behalf of itself and each Person in its respective Group, as applicable, shall hold, and cause its respective directors,
officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives to hold, in confidence and not release or disclose, with at least the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, that such Party applies

 11

respective Group or any of its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by any Party or their respective Group, employees,

provided, however, that the Person required to disclose such Information gives the applicable Person prompt, and to the extent reasonably practicable, prior notice of such disclosure and an opportunity to contest such disclosure and
shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate, at the expense of the requesting Person, in seeking any reasonable protective arrangements requested by such Person. In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained,
the Person that is required to disclose such information shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of such information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that confidential
treatment is accorded such information. Each Party’s obligations under this Section 5.03 shall expire three years from the date of this Agreement. 

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, when any information concerning the other Group or its business is no longer needed for the purposes
contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, each Party will, promptly after request of another Party, either return all information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon)
or certify to the other Party, as applicable, that it has destroyed such information, other than, in each case, any such information electronically preserved or recorded within any computerized data storage device or component (including any
hard-drive or database) pursuant to automatic or routine backup procedures generally accessible only by legal, IT or compliance personnel.

Insurance 

Section 6.01 Insurance. 

(a) ASV acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Separation Date, ASV shall have no rights to or under policies of insurance, current
or past, which are or at any time were maintained by or on behalf of or for the benefit or protection of Manitex and its subsidiaries, except for any policies maintained exclusively by ASV (the “Manitex Insurance Policies”), other
than as expressly provided in Section 6.01(b). 

  
 12 








 (b) With respect to any Liability accrued and/or incurred by ASV prior to the Separation Date,
Manitex shall provide ASV with access to the Manitex Insurance Policies if and solely to the extent that the terms of such policies provide for such coverage to ASV with respect to any Liabilities accrued or incurred by ASV prior to the Separation
Date, and subject to the terms and conditions of such insurance policies, including any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles and other fees and expenses. ASV shall report any potential claims under Manitex Insurance Policies as soon as
practicable to Manitex and Manitex shall determine whether and at what time to report and make any such claims. If and to the extent that ASV is the sole entity recovering proceeds under one or more Manitex Insurance Policies in respect of a
particular claim, ASV shall exclusively be responsible for any costs relating to such Manitex Insurance Policy, including any amounts of deductibles and self-insured retention associated with such claims, claim handling and administrative costs, as
well as for any applicable increase in Manitex’s future premiums for the coverage provided by such policy. 
 (c) Each of Manitex and
ASV shall, and Manitex shall cause each member of the Manitex Group to, cooperate and assist ASV and the applicable member of the Manitex Group, as applicable, with respect to such claims. In connection with making any joint claim under any Manitex
Insurance Policy Manitex shall control the administration of all such claims, including the timing of any assertion and pursuit of coverage. In the event that any insurance claims of both Manitex and ASV for any Liability accrued and/or incurred
prior to the Separation Date exist relating to the same occurrence, both Parties shall jointly defend and waive any conflict of interest to the extent necessary to the conduct of the joint defense. In the event of any Action by either ASV or Manitex
(or both) to recover or obtain insurance proceeds, or to defend against any Action by an insurance carrier to deny any benefits under an insurance policy, both Parties may join in any such Action and be represented by joint counsel and both Parties
shall waive any conflict of interest to the extent necessary to conduct any such Action. 
 ARTICLE VII 

Further Assurances and Additional Covenants 

Section 7.01 Further Assurances. 

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the Parties shall, subject to
Section 8.01, use reasonable best efforts, prior to, on and after the Separation Date, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under
applicable Laws and agreements to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (b) Without limiting the
foregoing, prior to, on and after the Separation Date, each Party shall reasonably cooperate with the other Party, without any further consideration, (i) to execute and deliver all instruments as such Party may reasonably be requested to
execute and deliver by the other Party to transfer any assets or Liabilities hereunder, (ii) to make all filings with, and to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all consents, waivers or approvals from, or notifications or filings required by law
or otherwise necessary or advisable; and (iii) to take all such other actions as such Party may reasonably be requested to take by the other Party from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, in
order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

of this Agreement) and the timing of and conditions to the consummation thereof. 
 Section 8.02 Termination. This Agreement may
be terminated by any Party at any time, in its sole discretion, prior to the Separation. In the event of any termination of this Agreement prior to the Separation, none of the Parties (nor any of its directors or officers) shall have

 Section 8.03
Counterparts; Entire Agreement; Corporate Power. 
 (a) This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which
counterparts shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Parties. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile or PDF signature and
a facsimile or PDF signature shall constitute an original for all purposes. 
 (b) This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and any
Appendices, Exhibits and Schedules hereto and thereto contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous agreements, negotiations, discussions, writings, understandings, commitments
and conversations with respect to such subject matter, and there are no agreements or understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein. If there is a conflict

 Section 8.04 Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Jurisdiction. 

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Michigan, regardless of the Laws that
might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws thereof. 
 (b) Unless otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the
event of any dispute arising under this Agreement among the Parties, each Party involved in such dispute shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve a given dispute within 10 days, each Party shall have
the right to exercise any and all remedies available under law or equity with respect to such dispute. 
 (c) Each Party irrevocably
consents to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of any court located in the State of Michigan (or, solely if such court declines jurisdiction, any federal court located in the State of Michigan) over any and all claims, disputes,
controversies or disagreements between the Parties or any of their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, successors and assigns under or related to this Agreement or any document executed pursuant to this Agreement or any of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 Section 8.05 Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any purported assignment without such consent shall be void.
Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may assign this Agreement
without consent in connection with (a) a merger transaction in which such Party is not the surviving entity and the surviving entity acquires or assumes all or substantially all of such Party’s Assets, or (b) the sale of all or
substantially all of such Party’s Assets; provided, however, that the assignee expressly assumes in writing all of the obligations of the assigning Party under this Agreement, and the assigning Party provides written notice and
evidence of such assignment and assumption to the non-assigning Parties. No assignment permitted by this Section 8.05 shall release the assigning Party from liability for the full
performance of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 Section 8.06 Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for the indemnification
rights under this Agreement of any ASV Indemnitee or Manitex-Terex Indemnitee in their respective capacities as such, (a) the provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Parties hereto and are not intended to confer upon any
Person except the Parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder and (b) there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement shall not provide any third person with any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of
action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.

 Section 8.07 Notices. All notices or other communications under this Agreement shall
be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given when (a) delivered in person, (b) on the date received, if sent by a nationally recognized delivery or courier service or (c) upon the earlier of confirmed receipt or the fifth
business day following the date of mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

	If to Manitex, to:	  	[●]
		
	with a copy to:	  	[●]
		
	If to Terex, to:	  	[●]
		
	with a copy to:	  	[●]

 Any Party may, by notice to the other Parties, change the address to which such notices are to be given. 

Section 8.08 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held
invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby, so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner
materially adverse to any Party. Upon any such determination, any such provision, to the extent determined to be invalid, void or unenforceable, shall be deemed replaced by a provision that such court determines is valid and enforceable and that
comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, void or unenforceable provision. 
 Section 8.09 Publicity. Each Party
shall consult with the other Parties, and shall, subject to the requirements of Section 5.03, provide the other Parties the opportunity to review and comment upon, any press releases or other public statements in connection
with the Separation or the Initial Public Offering or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby and any filings with any governmental authority or national securities exchange with respect thereto, in each case prior to the issuance or
filing thereof, as applicable (including the Registration Statement and the Parties’ respective Current Reports on Form 8-K to be filed in connection with the Initial Public Offering). 

Section 8.10 Expenses. All fees, costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection with the Separation or the Initial Public
Offering, as applicable, will be paid by the Party incurring such fees or expenses, whether or not the Separation or the Initial Public Offering is consummated, or as otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. 

  
 16 








 Section 8.11 Survival of Covenants. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement,
the covenants in this Agreement and the liabilities for the breach of any obligations in this Agreement shall survive the Separation and the Initial Public Offering, as applicable, and shall remain in full force and effect. 

Section 8.12 Waivers of Default. No failure or delay of any Party (or the applicable member of its Group) in exercising any right
or remedy under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any
course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Waiver by any Party of any default by the other Parties of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving
Party of any subsequent or other default. 
 Section 8.13 Specific Performance. Subject to
Section 8.01 and notwithstanding the procedures set forth in ARTICLE VII, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the affected
Party(ies) shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be
cumulative. The other Party(ies) shall not oppose the granting of such relief on the basis that money damages are an adequate remedy. The Parties agree that the remedies at Law for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including monetary damages,
are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at Law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived. 

Section 8.14 Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by any Party,
unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized representative of each Party. 

Section 8.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTIES HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE OTHER PARTIES WOULD NOT, IN THE
EVENT OF ANY LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH OF THE PARTIES UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH OF THE PARTIES MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) EACH OF THE PARTIES
HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS Section 8.15.
