 5 













 Article 1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE TRANSFERRED SHARES 

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including the conditions set forth in Article 3), the Seller shall
sell, transfer and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer shall purchase from the Seller, on the Closing Date, all (and not less than all) the Transferred Shares, free and clear of any Liens, in consideration of the purchase price as set forth in
Article 2. 
 (b) As of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall have the full ownership of the Transferred Shares together with all
the rights attached thereto, including the right to all dividends declared and paid on and after the Closing Date with respect to the Transferred Shares. In that respect, the Parties undertake to notify the transaction to the Company on the Closing
Date in order to enable the Company to proceed with the registration of such transaction in its share transfer register (registre des mouvements de titres) and its shareholders’ individual accounts (comptes d’actionnaires) on
the Closing Date. 
 Article 2. PURCHASE PRICE 

2.1 Purchase Price 
 The
aggregate cash consideration to be paid for the Transferred Shares shall be based on a base amount of [***] (the “Base Purchase Price”). The Base Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustments as provided in this Article 2.

 (a) Not later than ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date, for the purpose of calculating the Unadjusted Purchase Price
pursuant to Section 2.1(b), Seller shall notify Buyer of the amount of: (i) the Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company; (ii) the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and (iii) the Estimated
Library Store Costs. 
 (b) On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller in immediately available funds an amount equal to the result of:
(i) the Base Purchase Price, (ii) minus the Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness, (iii) as the case may be, minus the amount by which the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Reference Net
Working Capital or plus the amount by which the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital exceeds the Reference Net Working Capital, (iv) plus the Estimated Library Store Costs (the amount resulting from (i) through (iv) shall be
referred to as the “Unadjusted Purchase Price”). 
 2.2 Purchase Price Adjustment 

2.2.1 Closing Accounts and Closing Statements 

(a) The Unadjusted Purchase Price will be adjusted based on (i) the Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company at the Closing, as
compared with Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness, and (ii) the Net Working Capital of the Company at the Closing as compared with the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital and (iii) the Library Store Costs effectively paid by
the Company up to and including the Closing Date as compared with the Estimated Library Store Costs. 
 (b) As soon as practicable, but in
no event later than sixty (60) Business Days after the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer at its own cost and expense, the closing balance sheet and the statement of income of the Company as of the Closing Date, which shall
be audited and prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles (the “Closing Accounts”) 

  
 6 













 (c) On the basis of the Closing Accounts, and concurrently with the delivery thereof to
Buyer, Seller shall provide Buyer with: (i) a statement containing a calculation of the Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company as at the Closing Date (the “Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness Statement”, which shall
be prepared in accordance with Schedule 2.2.1(c) and the definition of the Intragroup Net Indebtedness; and (ii) a statement containing a calculation of the Net Working Capital of the Company at the Closing Date (the “Closing
Net Working Capital Statement”), which shall be prepared in accordance with Schedule 2.2.1(c) and the definition of Net Working Capital and (iii) a statement containing a calculation of the Library Store Costs paid by the
Company until and including the Closing Date which shall be prepared in accordance with the definition of the Library Store Costs (the “Closing Library Store Costs Statement”). The Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness
Statement, the Closing Library Store Costs Statement and the Closing Net Working Capital Statement shall be collectively referred to as the “Closing Statements”. 

(d) Cooperation. Buyer shall, and shall cause both, to the extent legally possible and to the extent practicable, its Affiliates and
its Affiliates’ statutory auditors and other advisors to cooperate fully and completely in responding to questions and requests for information submitted by Seller or its representatives in connection with the preparation of the Closing
Accounts and the Closing Statements, and shall cause its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ statutory auditors to, with reasonable prior notice, provide Seller or its representatives with full access to Buyer’s and its Affiliates’
representatives and to all books and records to the extent related to the Company, in any way relating to the preparation, review and audit of the Closing Accounts and Closing Statements, provided that such access shall not interfere with or disrupt
the normal business and operations of Buyer and its Affiliates. 
 2.2.2 Disputes regarding the Closing Statements 

(a) Buyer shall within ninety (90) Business Days from the date of the submission of the Closing Accounts and Closing Statements (the
“Review Period”) complete, at its own costs and expenses, its review thereof and notify Seller in writing of its objections to any of the Closing Accounts and Closing Statements (the “Objection”). Seller shall
provide Buyer upon its prior written request with such information and documentation held by Seller as is reasonably requested by Buyer to complete such review. Any Objection by Buyer shall be based upon an error in the Closing Accounts or failure
to comply with Section 2.2.1, in each case where such error or failure affects the calculation set forth in the Closing Statements. Any Objection shall set forth a specific and reasonably detailed description of the items
and amounts subject to such Objection (the “Disputed Items”), the revisions to the Closing Accounts and Closing Statements which Buyer believes should be made, and Buyer’s calculation, if any, of the Adjustment Amount. Buyer
shall be deemed to have accepted any items not specifically disputed in the Objection and shall not be entitled to (i) raise new items or (ii) modify the nature and amount of the Disputed Items set out in the Objection. Failure to so
notify Seller within the Review Period shall constitute acceptance and approval of the Closing Accounts and Closing Statements which shall become final and binding upon Seller and Buyer. 

(b) If within sixty (60) calendar days after the submission by Buyer of any Objection (the “Negotiation Period”), Buyer
and Seller are unable to resolve all the Disputed Items after using their good faith efforts to reach a resolution, they shall submit the unresolved Disputed Items to Mazars or Eight Advisory or, if none of the latter is willing or can accept its
mission to another similar internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants as to which Seller and Buyer mutually agree (the “Independent Accounting Firm”). If Seller and Buyer cannot agree on the Independent
Accounting Firm within ten (10) Business Days after the end of the Negotiation Period, the most diligent of Seller or Buyer shall be entitled to request the designation of such Independent Accounting Firm by the Center for Expertise of the
International Chamber of Commerce in Paris. 

  
 7 













 (c) Buyer and Seller shall each promptly prepare a written statement on the unresolved
Disputed Items together with the relevant documentation in relation thereto, which shall be submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for determination. In particular, without limitation, Buyer shall keep up to date and make available to Seller
and the Independent Accounting Firm its books and records relating to the Company. Buyer and Seller shall cause the Independent Accounting Firm to be provided with any other information and documentation that may be reasonably requested thereby as
soon as reasonably practicable. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to act as experts in accounting and not as arbitrators, and to limit its examination to the unresolved Disputed Items. The Independent Accounting Firm
shall: (x) give the Parties a reasonable opportunity to provide written and oral submissions to it; (y) require that the Parties provide to each other a copy of any written submissions at the same time as they are made to the Independent
Accounting Firm; and (z) allow each Party to be present while oral submissions are being made by any other Party. Buyer and Seller shall request the Independent Accounting Firm to use its best efforts to deliver a preliminary report setting
forth its resolution and, if applicable, its calculation of the Disputed Items or amounts, as promptly as practicable, but no later than thirty (30) calendar days following its appointment. Buyer and Seller shall have the opportunity to provide
comments to the Independent Accounting Firm regarding the preliminary report within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date of such preliminary report (and such comments shall be communicated forthwith to the other Party). The Independent
Accounting Firm shall deliver a final written report within sixty (60) calendar days following its appointment. The determination of the unresolved Disputed Items by the Independent Accounting Firm in its preliminary and final reports shall
state which adjustments should be made to the Closing Statements (including a calculation of the resulting Adjustment Amount, if any), and shall be delivered to Seller and Buyer as promptly as practicable. Such determination shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon Seller and Buyer, in accordance with articles 1592 and seq. of the French Civil Code, except in the event of erreur grossière. If the determination by the Independent Accounting Firm of any Disputed Item
exceeds both the amounts set forth in the Closing Statements delivered by Seller and in the Objection of Buyer, such Disputed Item shall be deemed to be limited to the higher of these two amounts. If this determination is lower than both of these
amounts, then such Disputed Item shall be limited to the lower of these two amounts. Buyer and Seller shall, and shall procure that their accountants and other advisers, and that their Affiliates and their Affiliates’ accountants and advisers,
shall, and shall instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to keep all information and documents provided to them pursuant to this Section confidential and shall not use the same for any purpose, except in connection with the preparation of the
Closing Statements or the resolution of the Disputed Items. All fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be shared between Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, proportionally based on the winning and losing of
each Party pursuant to the statements in the final written report delivered by the Independent Accounting Firm. The Closing Accounts and the Closing Statements (i) to which Buyer does not object in accordance with
Section 2.2.2(a), or (ii) as to which Buyer and Seller agree, or (iii) as otherwise conclusively determined by in accordance with Section 2.2.2(c) shall be referred to as the
“Final Closing Accounts” and the “Final Closing Statements”. 
 2.2.3 Adjustment 

(a) If and to the extent the Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company as set forth in the Final Closing Statements (the “Final
Intragroup Net Indebtedness”) is greater than or less than the Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness, the following adjustments shall be made: 

(i) To the extent that such Final Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company is less than the Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness, an
amount equal to such shortfall shall be due by Buyer to Seller. 

  
 8 













 (ii) To the extent that such Final Intragroup Net Indebtedness of the Company is greater
than the Estimated Closing Intragroup Net Indebtedness, an amount equal to such excess shall be due by Seller to Buyer. 
 (b) If and to the
extent the Net Working Capital of the Company as set forth in the Final Closing Statements (the “Final Net Working Capital”) is greater than or less than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, the following adjustments shall be
made: 
 (i) If and to the extent the Final Net Working Capital of the Company at Closing Date is less than the Estimated Closing Net Working
Capital an amount equal to such shortfall shall be due by Seller to the Buyer. 
 (ii) If and to the extent the Final Net Working Capital of
the Company at Closing is greater than the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, an amount equal to such excess shall be due by Buyer to Seller. 

(c) If and to the extent the Library Store Costs paid by the Company as set forth in the Final Closing Statements (the “Final Library
Store Costs”) is greater than or less than the Estimated Library Store Costs, the following adjustments shall be made: 
 (i) If and
to the extent the Final Library Store Costs paid by the Company at Closing Date is less than the Estimated Library Store Costs an amount equal to such shortfall shall be due by Seller to the Buyer. 

(ii) If and to the extent the Final Library Store Costs paid by the Company at Closing is greater than the Estimated Library Store Costs, an
amount equal to such excess shall be due by Buyer to Seller. 
 (c) All amounts payable by Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, pursuant to
this Section 2.2.3, shall be netted against all amounts payable to the same Party by the other Party pursuant to this Section 2.2.3, and the resulting net aggregate of such adjustments shall be
referred to as the “Adjustment Amount”. 
 (d) The Adjustment Amount shall be paid in immediately available funds within
seven (7) calendar days following the determination of the Final Closing Accounts and Final Closing Statements, and shall bear interest from the Closing Date through and including the date of actual payment at a rate equal to EURIBOR 3 months
plus 100 basis points. An adjustment deed (acte d’ajustement), for tax registration purposes, shall be signed by the Parties and registered in due course by the Buyer at its costs and expenses. 

(e) The Unadjusted Purchase Price plus or less, as the case may be, the Adjustment Amounts, shall be referred to as the “Final
Purchase Price”. 
 (f) To the extent any Adjustment Amount shall be payable by Buyer, Buyer shall in no event be entitled to set-off such Adjustment Amount against any amount payable hereunder by Seller, including without limitation any indemnification payable under Article 11.

 2.3 Earnout and Property Tax Earnout 

2.3.1 Earnout 
 2.3.1.1 The Parties agree
that an additional amount (the “Earnout”) shall be due by Buyer to Seller as a supplemental Purchase Price for the Transferred Shares if, during the Relevant EO Period, 

(a) the Buyer enters into Binding Agreements in respect of the Transfer of all or part of the Owned Real Property in one or several related
transactions to one or more Unaffiliated Third Parties (the EO Tranche 1), it being further specified and agreed that any payment hereunder of the EO Tranche 1 shall, in any case, be subject to actual completion of the Transfer
contemplated under the related Binding Agreements in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein; 
 (b) the Buyer enters
into Binding Agreements in respect of the Transfer of all or part of the Transferred Shares in one or several related transactions to one or more Unaffiliated Third Parties (the EO Tranche 2), it being further specified and agreed that
any payment hereunder of the EO Tranche 2 shall, in any case, be subject to actual completion of the Transfer contemplated under the related Binding Agreements in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein; 

(c) the Company enters into Qualifying Leases with Unaffiliated Third Parties granting them occupancy rights on all or part of the Owned Real
Property (the EO Tranche 3); 
 (d) the Buyer enters into Binding Agreements with any Unaffiliated Third Parties in respect of
the Sale and Leaseback of all or part of the Owned Property (the EO Tranche 4), it being further specified and agreed that (x) any payment hereunder of the EO Tranche 4 shall, in any case, be subject to actual completion of the
Sale and Leaseback contemplated under the related Binding Agreements in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth therein and (y) should a Transfer fall under the scope of EO Tranche 4, it shall prevail EO Tranche 1; 

(the EO Tranche 1, the EO Tranche 2, the EO Tranche 3 and the EO Tranche 4 are hereinafter collectively referred to as the EO
Tranches). 
 2.3.1.2 For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties further acknowledge and agree that: 

(a) no EO Tranche shall be due and payable in the event of (i) a merger between the Company and Buyer or one of its Affiliates or
(ii) a Transfer of or all or part of the Transferred Shares or all or part of the Owned Real Property to an Affiliate of Buyer, so long as the transferee remains an Affiliate of Buyer, provided that if the Affiliate ceases to remain so, the
relevant EO Tranche shall be due by Buyer and shall be computed on the basis of the value of the Company reflected in the price formula used by Buyer or its Affiliates in the transaction whereby the relevant Affiliate ceased to remain an Affiliate
of Buyer and provided further that these transactions shall not affect the right of the Seller to receive any EO Tranche 1, EO Tranche 3 or EO Tranche 4, as may be due and payable in accordance with the terms herein; if the Company is combined
(including by way of merger, absorption or other form of combination) with Buyer or any of its Affiliates, all EO Tranches shall automatically be transferred to the resulting entity (the Resulting Entity) and will be binding toward it
and the EO Tranche 2 Earnout shall apply to the Transfer of the Shares of the Resulting Entity, provided however that (i) any value attributable to businesses, assets, activities or liabilities of the Resulting Entity which are not related to
the businesses, assets, activities or liabilities of the Company on the Closing Date shall not give rise to any Earnout and (ii) the Parties shall jointly appoint (and will share the expense of) a mutually acceptable expert in order to assess
the value of the former assets and liabilities of the Company that were in existence on the Closing Date and the share of the consideration received as a result thereof in the total consideration for the Transfer of the Resulting Entity. 

  
 10 













 (b) no EO Tranche 1 shall be due and payable by Buyer as a result of the completion of a
Permitted Transfer 
 (c) no EO Tranche 3 shall be due and payable by Buyer as a result of a Permitted Lease; 

(d) no EO Tranche shall be due and payable by the Buyer should the Earn Out, for any specific transaction (or any series of related
transactions), be lower than ten thousand euros (EUR 10,000) (the De Minimis). 
 (e) each EO Tranche shall automatically,
immediately and without any further formality, terminate upon expiry of the Relevant EO Period applicable thereto; 
 (f) any EO Tranche 1,
EO Tranche 2 and/or EO Tranche 4 (as applicable) shall, in any case, be subject to the actual completion of the transaction triggering payment of any such EO Tranche under the relevant Binding Agreements and, for the sake of clarity, no EO Tranche
shall be due and payable for so long as the Binding Agreements entered into in connection therewith are not duly and satisfactorily completed in accordance with their relevant terms and conditions; 

(g) any EO Tranche 3 shall, in any case, be subject to the actual payment by the tenant under the relevant Qualifying Lease of the first
rental for occupancy of the relevant premises under the terms of that relevant Qualifying Lease; 
 (h) for the purposes of determining the
EO Tranche 2, as may be applicable, if the Company were to acquire and/or hold after the Closing Date any asset (including real property asset) other than the Owned Real Property, the value allocable to any such other asset shall be deducted from
the purchase price for the Transferred Shares deriving from the transaction triggering payment of the EO Tranche 2; 
 (i) in case of series
of transactions triggering payments of an EO Tranche, (x) if and where the determining of an EO Tranche results in a negative amount (and therefore, relieves Buyer from any payment obligation in connection therewith), any such negative amount
shall be reported and offset against the amount of any other EO Tranche, as may be payable and due by Buyer in accordance with the terms herein and (y) only one EO Tranche may be due and payable for a same transaction, with no double counting
or covenant of the Buyer to pay more than once an EO Tranche for a same transaction. 
 The amount of each EO Tranche shall be as set forth in Schedule
2.3. If the Transfer of the Transferred Shares or the Owned Real Property to an Unaffiliated Third Party is made for a consideration which is not entirely in cash, then a cash equivalent to such consideration shall be determined in good faith by
the Parties. Similarly, where adjustments are to be made to the determining of an EO Tranche due to the occurrence of events after the Closing Date (in particular, if value of other assets (including real property assets) acquired by the Company
after the Closing Date are to be deducted to determine the amount of any EO Tranche 2 or in the circumstances described in paragraph (a) above), then the corresponding adjustments deriving therefrom to be taken into account in the determining
of the relevant EO Tranche shall be determined in good faith by the Parties on the basis of an independent expert report, as provided in paragraph (a) above (mutatis mutandis). 

  
 11 













 In the event of any dispute between the Parties as to the amount of any EO Tranche (including, as a result
of the Parties failing to agree on the good faith determinations under the foregoing), such amount shall be conclusively determined by an Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2.2, which
are applicable mutatis mutandis for the purpose hereto. 
 2.3.1.3 Buyer undertakes to notify to Seller the occurrence of a transaction triggering
payment of any EO Tranche in accordance with the terms herein, when applicable, the consideration to be received by Buyer in connection therewith (including payment mechanics) within seven (7) Business Days from the date of entry into the
relevant binding agreement by Buyer, the Company or its Affiliate. An EO Tranche shall be due and payable by Buyer to Seller within thirty (30) calendar days following (the EO Payment Date): 

 

	 	•	 	 with respect to EO Tranche 1, EO Tranche 2 or EO Tranche 4, the date on which Buyer receives actual payment in
furtherance of the relevant Binding Agreements under which any such EO Tranche is due and payable (Buyer undertaking to notify Seller of such receipt within seven (7) Business days of receipt thereof), or 



 

	 	•	 	 with respect to EO Tranche 3, the date on which the Third Party makes the first payment to the Company for the
occupancy of the relevant premises (Buyer undertaking to notify Seller of such receipt within seven (7) Business days of receipt thereof), as appropriate, 



 

	 	•	 	 and shall bear interest from the EO Payment Date through and including the date of actual payment of the relevant
EO Tranche at a rate equal to EURIBOR 3 months plus 100 basis points. 


 2.3.1.4 An adjustment deed (acte d’ajustement), for
tax registration purposes, shall be signed by the Parties and registered in due course by the Buyer, the related cost and expenses shall be borne by the Buyer. 

2.3.2 Property Tax Earnout 
 Purchaser
has been informed that: 
  

	 	i.	 Sanofi (for 2016 and 2017 calendar years), Seller (for 2018 calendar year) and the Company (for 2019 calendar
year) have filed with the relevant Governmental Authority claims (respectively, the 2016 Property Tax Claim, the 2017 Property Tax Claim, the 2018 Property Tax Claim and the 2019 Property Tax Claim) aiming at reclassifying the surfaces of the Owned
Real Property as “commercial premises” (“locaux commerciaux”) for the purpose of assessing their cadastral rental value (“valeur locative commerciale”) used as basis of computation of Property Tax;



  

	 	ii.	 the Governmental Authority has partially admitted such reclassification in its 2016 and 2017 Tax Decision, but
solely with respect to the Adjusted Surfaces. The calculation of the associated refund of Property Tax paid in 2016 and 2017 in respect to the Adjusted Surfaces is on-going as at the date of this Agreement;



  

	 	iii.	 Sanofi has challenged the 2016 and 2017 Tax Decision in front of the Toulouse administrative lower court
(Tribunal administrative de Toulouse) in order to obtain the reclassification as “commercial premises” (“locaux commerciaux”) of the surfaces of the Owned Real Property other than the Adjusted Surfaces (the
“Property Tax Court Litigation”). Such Property Tax Court Litigation is pending as at the date of this Agreement. 



  
 12 













 The Parties acknowledge that a successful outcome of the Property Tax Court Litigation would be susceptible
to create value to Company by reducing its future liabilities for Property Tax, it being noted that a portion of the Property Tax Refunds which may be obtained in respect of 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 calendar years would have to be on-paid to the persons that used to be tenants of the Owned Real Property for any of such periods (including Buyer or its Affiliates as tenant(s) of the Owned Real Property) by (i) with respect to the 2016 and
2017 Property Tax Refund, Sanofi, (ii) with respect to the 2018 Property Tax Refund, Seller and (iii) with respect to the 2019 Property Tax Refund, the Company. 

Against this background, the Parties agree that a Property Tax Earnout, calculated in accordance with the rules set forth in Section E of Schedule 2.3,
shall be due by Buyer: 
  

	 	a.	 in relation to the 2016 and 2017 Property Tax Earnout, within 30 Business Days after the date on which any
payment referred to at # 1°.i in Section E of Schedule 2.3 has been received by Buyer or its Affiliates (as lessee(s) of the Owned Real Property) from Sanofi or Seller; 



 

	 	b.	 in relation to the 2018 Property Tax Earnout within 30 Business Days after the date on which any payment
referred to at # 2°.i in Section E of Schedule 2.3 has been received by Buyer or its Affiliates (as lessee(s) of the Owned Real Property) from Sanofi or Seller; 



 

	 	c.	 in relation to the 2019 Property Tax Earnout and the Future Property Tax Earnout, within 30 Business Days after
the date on which any portion of the 2019 Property Tax Refund has been received by the Company from the relevant Governmental Authority (it being specified that no 2019 Property Tax Earnout shall be due with respect to any portion of the 2019
Property Tax Refund which would be received by the Company before the Closing Date; for the avoidance of doubt, this clause shall not apply to the Future Property Tax Earnout). 



Any payment made by Buyer to Seller in accordance with this Article 2.3.2 shall constitute, to the extent permitted by Law, an adjustment to the
Purchase Price. 
 An adjustment deed (acte d’ajustement), for tax registration purposes, shall be signed by the Parties and registered in due
course by the Buyer, the related cost and expenses shall be borne by the Buyer. 
 Seller (with respect to years 2016 to 2018) and Buyer (with respect to
year 2019) shall act in good faith and shall diligently take, and cause their Affiliates including the Company to take all commercially reasonable measures to obtain the Property Tax Refunds as soon as reasonably possible after the Closing Date.
Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, each of them shall, and shall procure that its Affiliates will, (i) make all filings and take all measures
vis-à-vis the competent Governmental Authorities in a timely manner in order to obtain the Property Tax Refunds to which it or its Affiliates are entitled, as
soon as reasonably possible after the Closing Date and (ii) diligently pursue all commercially reasonable actions required to obtain the Property Tax Refunds to which it or its Affiliates are entitled. The relevant Party shall (i) promptly
inform the other Party of any material development relating to the Property Tax Refunds, (ii) provide such other Party with copies of any communication with Governmental Authorities or third parties in relation to the obtaining of the Property
Tax Refunds and (iii) notify the other Party of the obtaining of any of the Property Tax Refunds within fifteen (15) Business Days following such obtaining. 

  
 13 













 In the event that any relevant Governmental Authority withdraws or otherwise cancels the decision supporting
any of the Property Tax Refunds, Buyer shall, with the assistance of Seller to the extent reasonably required, (and at the cost of Seller if this pertains to years 2016 to 2018), cause the Company to challenge the decision by such Governmental
Authority and diligently pursue such challenge. The provisions of Section 11.3 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the handling of such claim. If and to extent such withdraw or cancellation relates to any portion of the Property Tax Refunds which
has already given rise to a payment by Buyer to Seller under any of the paragraphs a. to c. above then Seller shall repay to Buyer any portion of such earnout payments made pursuant to paragraphs a. to c. above and affected by such withdrawal or
cancellation at the latest seven (7) Business Days prior to the date on which the Company is obligated to repay to the French Treasury the said portion of the Property Tax Refunds, provided that if the said decision of the Governmental
Authority is later definitively overturned (wholly or partly) by the relevant jurisdiction, the relevant earnout(s) shall be recalculated to take this refund into account and Buyer shall repay to Seller the relevant amount. 

The obligation of the Buyer to pay the Property Tax Earnouts due pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be affected by any merger, combination, sale or
Transfer of the Company, but shall automatically be transferred to the Resulting Entity and be binding upon it. 
 2.4 Partial
Reimbursement of Purchase Price 
 In the event that (i) the Compound Management Services Agreement entered into by Seller on the
one hand and Evotec International GmbH, an Affiliate of Buyer, on the other hand, on 11 and 12 December 2019 (the “Compound Management Services Agreement”), is terminated prior to the end of its term, or (ii) Sanofi elects not to
extend the term of that Agreement in accordance with its Article 12.1 for an additional 5 year term and the Parties thereto or their Affiliates do not enter into another agreement providing for similar services for the same duration, then Seller
shall reimburse to Buyer part of the portion of the Purchase Price corresponding to Library Store Costs as follows: the amount to be reimbursed shall be equal to 65% of the amount of the Final Library Store Costs less 10% x 65% x Final Library Store
Costs per full year during which the Compound Management Services Agreement (or any extension or substitute thereof) has been in force (prorated for incomplete years). Such reimbursement shall take place within 60 days from the date on which the
Compound Management Agreement is terminated or has expired. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, no such reimbursement shall be due by Seller if (i) the Compound Management Services Agreement is terminated or not renewed or extended
by Sanofi for the reasons referred to in Article 12.2.1(a) or (b) thereof as a result of a breach or insolvency (or similar proceedings) of the Evotec party or (ii) if Sanofi exercises the option set forth in Article 13 of the Compound
Management Services Agreement. 
 2.5 Method of Payment 

All payments due pursuant to this Article 2 shall be made to the relevant Party by wire transfer in immediately available funds in
euros, to the bank account notified in writing by such Party no later than two (2) Business Days before the relevant payment is due. All sums payable hereunder which are not paid in a timely fashion, shall bear interest at a rate equal to

its Affiliates receives any payment in respect of any claim of the Company under the Seller Insurance, the Seller shall, or shall cause such Affiliate to account to and pay to the Buyer, or, as the case may be, to the Company or any other relevant
Third Party (as applicable), such amounts as it receives (minus all Third Party costs incurred by the Seller or any of its Affiliates or the Company in connection with the collection thereof, including for the sake of clarity any costs or expenses
incurred to cure wholly or in part the event or circumstance in respect of which a claim under the Seller Insurance has been made) as promptly as practicable.

books and records.

Agreement and of the Related Agreements, and for such purpose Buyer, at the reasonable request of Seller, at or after the Closing, shall, without further consideration, promptly execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, to Seller

Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the Company to reimburse to the relevant members of the Sanofi Group the indebtedness of the
Company to such members and shall reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, to the Company any indebtedness of any member of the Sanofi Group to the Company. In the event the cash resources of the Company immediately prior to Closing are insufficient to

the first Party or its Affiliates to the relevant Tax authorities for the payment thereof. Such indemnity shall be paid by the first Party (or its Affiliates) to the other Party (or its Affiliates) within thirty (30) days as from the first
written notice provided by the other Party (or its Affiliates) together with the tax collection notice. 

  
 35

the Buyer shall be responsible for the timely filing (taking into account any extensions received from the relevant Government Authorities) of all Tax Returns required by Law to be filed with respect to the Company, to the extent such Tax Returns
are to be filed after the Closing Date. 
 9.4 Closing 

Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, each of Seller and Buyer shall, and shall procure that each of their Affiliates shall,
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the conditions set forth in Article 3 to be satisfied by the Closing Date and shall take no action that would, or that could reasonably be expected to, result in any of the conditions set forth
in such Article not being satisfied. 
 Without limitation to the foregoing, each of Buyer and Seller shall take, and shall cause its
respective Affiliates after the Closing Date to take, such steps as may be reasonably required by the relevant Governmental Authorities in order to grant the Governmental Approvals, provided that such requirements do not materially affect the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents in the reasonable assessment of both Parties and provided further that neither Buyer nor Seller shall be required to accept any amendment to this Agreement or the Transaction
Documents as a result of any such requirements by Governmental Authorities which would materially affect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Transaction Documents, but that they shall make their commercially reasonable efforts to
accept any amendments that do not affect materially these transactions (it being agreed that none of these amendments shall require Seller or its Affiliates to make any additional payment to Buyer or its Affiliates). The Parties shall cooperate with
each other in good faith in order to achieve that any commitments or undertakings imposed on any of the Parties or their Affiliates in connection with the obtaining of the Governmental Approvals will be mitigated to the greatest possible extent
prior to Closing Date.

access shall not interfere with or disrupt the normal business and operations of Buyer and its Affiliates. As a consequence, the Seller undertakes that all of its equipment and belongings located in such facilities will be removed at the latest on
July 31, 2020, at Seller’s sole cost and expense.

(“Buyer Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and representatives (each a “Seller Indemnified Party”)
harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Seller Indemnified Party resulting or arising from or related to, or incurred in connection with, in each case directly: 

(a) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty on the part of Buyer contained in Article 6 or in any other
Transaction Document; 
 (b) any breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement of Buyer (or after the Closing, by the Company) contained
in this Agreement, in any other Transaction Document.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement including those set forth in Section 10.2 from and after the
Closing, Seller (“Seller Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold Buyer and the Company’s and Buyer’s respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and representatives (each a “Buyer Indemnified
Party”) harmless from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Buyer Indemnified Party or the Company resulting or arising from, related to, or incurred in connection with, in each case directly: 

(a) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Article 5 of this Agreement, or in any other
Transaction Document; 
 (b) any breach of any covenant, obligation or agreement of Seller (or prior to the Closing, by the Company)
contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Document; 
 The Parties expressly agree that the fact that Buyer elects to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not cause any Buyer Indemnified Party to lose its right to any indemnification under this Article 11 with respect to any breach of covenant or breach of representations and
warranties by Seller or the Company on or prior to the Closing Date. 
 11.2 Conduct of Direct Claims 

In the event of a claim (other than a Third Party Claim as defined in Section 11.3) made by a Party claiming for or
entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnifiable Party”) under Section 11.1 (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnifiable Party shall notify such Direct Claim in writing to the other Party (the
“Indemnifying Party”) with reasonable promptness, specifying the nature and grounds of such Direct Claim and, to the extent known and determinable, the amount or estimated amount thereof (which estimate is for information only and
shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Direct Claim); provided, however, that the prompt giving of such notice shall not be a condition precedent to indemnification under this Agreement except to the extent that the
Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by any delay in receiving such notice. The Indemnifiable Party shall further provide to the Indemnifying Party as soon as it becomes available any information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party
in relation to the Direct Claim. 

  
 38 













 11.3 Conduct of Third Party Claims 

(a) In the event that any claim or Legal Proceeding is asserted or instituted by a Third Party which could give rise to a Loss for which an
Indemnifying Party would be liable to any Indemnifiable Party hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifiable Party shall with reasonable promptness send to the Indemnifying Party a written notice specifying the nature and
grounds of such claim or demand and, to the extent known and determinable, the amount or estimated amount (which estimate is for information only and shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim and demand) (a “Third Party Claim
Notice”); provided, however, that the prompt giving of such notice shall not be a condition precedent to indemnification under this Agreement except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by any delay in
receiving such notice. 
 (b) The Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in all aspects of the defense of any Third Party Claim
that is the subject of a Third Party Claim Notice. In addition, upon written notice to the Indemnifiable Party given any time prior to the final disposition of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the
Indemnifiable Party against the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person. In the absence of such notification from the Indemnifying Party within twenty (20) Business Days of the receipt by
the Indemnifying Party of the Third Party Claim Notice (or in respect of proceedings that require a response within a shorter period of time sufficient to enable the Indemnifiable Party to organize its defense), the Indemnifying Party shall be
deemed to have waived such option. 
 (c) To the extent the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant
to Section 11.3 (b), the Indemnifying Party shall conduct such defense in good faith. The Indemnifiable Party shall have the right, if it so notifies the Indemnifying Party, to be consulted in such defense and settlement of
the Third Party Claim and to participate at its own expense and with counsel of its choice. In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall afford the Indemnifiable Party and its counsel the opportunity to comment and the right to object (which comments
shall be taken into account to the extent reasonable and such right to object shall not be unreasonably exercised) with respect to the conduct of the defense and settlement of such Third Party Claim. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnifiable Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party defends, and, if (a) appropriate and related to the claim in question and (b) reasonable in
the judgment of the Indemnifiable Party, in making any counterclaim against the person asserting the Third Party Claim or demand, or any cross complaint against any person. The Indemnifying Party shall consult with the Indemnifiable Party with
respect to the prosecution of such counter-claim, demand or cross complaint. In such latter case and to the extent the amounts obtained from the counterclaim or cross complaint reduce the indemnifiable Losses of the Indemnifiable Party, the amount
obtained as a result thereof shall be deducted from the amount of the indemnification to be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnifiable Party. 

(d) In the event the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense in respect of the Third Party Claim, the Indemnifiable Party shall conduct
the defense of such Third Party Claim in good faith. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, if it so notifies the Indemnifiable Party, to be consulted in such defense of the Third Party Claim and to participate at its own expense and with
counsel of its choice. In such event, the Indemnifiable Party shall afford the Indemnifying Party and its counsel the opportunity to comment and the right to object (which comments shall be taken into account to the extent reasonable and such right
to object shall not be unreasonably exercised) with respect to the conduct of the defense of such Third Party Claim. 

  
 39 













 (e) From and after the delivery of a Third Party Claim Notice hereunder, the Indemnifiable
Party shall reasonably promptly copy the Indemnifying Party with any document received or sent in connection with the Third Party Claim and shall grant the Indemnifying Party and its representatives all reasonable access to the books, records and
properties of the Indemnifiable Party to the extent reasonably related to the matters to which the Third Party Claim Notice relates. All such access shall be granted during normal business hours and shall be granted under conditions which will not
interfere with the business and operations of the Indemnifiable Party. 
 (f) Any compromise or settlement made or caused to be made by the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnifiable Party, as the case may be, in connection with any Third Party Claim shall be binding upon, and be for the benefit of, the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnifiable Party, as the case may be, in the same manner
as if a final order had been entered by a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or compromise; provided, however, that no settlement or compromise shall be entered into by either the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnifiable
Party without the express written consent of the other Party (which consent, in the case of an Indemnifiable Party, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if the Indemnifying Party has agreed to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim
and the settlement provides for an unconditional release of the Indemnifiable Party). In the event the Indemnifiable Party refuses to consent to a settlement providing for a monetary payment that provides for such a release and does not impose any
other restrictions on the Indemnifiable Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnifiable Party for any settlement amount or judgment in excess of the amount of such settlement proposal. 

11.4 Survival of Indemnification for Breach of Representations and Warranties of Sellers 

The representations and warranties given or made in this Agreement or the Schedules thereto shall survive the Closing until the date that is
two (2) years after the Closing Date and shall thereafter terminate and be of no further force or effect, except with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Article 11 in respect thereof that shall have been notified in
writing by a Buyer Indemnified Party (with general details of the nature of such claim to the extent known by Buyer or the Company) prior to such time. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing: 

(a) in lieu of the two (2) year time limit set forth above, indemnification claims by Buyer Indemnified Parties against Seller arising
from or related to any breach of any Fundamental Representations or the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.15(e) (Social security and other employee related contributions) and
Section 5.12 (Tax Matters) may only be made provided a Buyer Indemnified Party gives written notice of such claim to Seller (containing general details of the nature of such claim to the extent known by Buyer) not
later than thirty (30) days after the expiration of the statute of limitations applicable to such matters in accordance with applicable Laws; and 

(b) notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in the Transaction Documents, the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 5.8 (Environment) shall survive the Closing until the 5th anniversary of the Closing Date, and shall thereafter terminate and be of no further
force or effect except with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Article 11 in respect thereof that shall have been notified in writing by Buyer (with general details of the nature of such claim to the extent known by Buyer)
prior to such time. The foregoing notwithstanding, the obligations of Seller to provide indemnification or Remedial Actions for breaches of the representations contained in Section 5.8 shall terminate automatically in the event of
a sale, transfer or divestiture of the Company or of all or substantially all of its assets (other than a sale, transfer or divestiture to an Affiliate of Buyer), provided that this termination shall not affect Buyer’ indemnification rights
with respect to any claim for indemnification for Losses incurred prior to such divestiture, sale or transfer. 

  
 40 













 11.5 Limitations 

(a) The indemnification obligations of Seller Indemnifying Party under Section 11.1.2(a) of this Agreement shall in no
event exceed: 
  

	 	(i)	 the Final Purchase Price in the event of violation of any of the Fundamental Representations;



  

	 	(ii)	 25% of the Final Purchase Price for violations of any other representations and warranties of Seller, provided
that, within this cap, the indemnification obligations of Seller in the event of violation of any of the representations and warranties other than those set forth in Section 5.7 (Compliance with Law /
Permits), Section 5.8 (Environment) and Section 5.12 (Tax Matters) shall be limited to 15% of the Final Purchase Price in the aggregate; 



it being specified that the total liability of the Seller Indemnifying Party shall not exceed the Final Purchase Price. 

(b) Each of Buyer and Seller shall not be entitled to make a claim for indemnification under Section 11.1.1 (a), or
11.1.2(a) when relevant, of this Agreement unless and until the aggregate amount of claims for Losses of Seller Indemnified Party in respect of Section 11.1.1 (a), or Buyer Indemnified Party or the Company in respect
of Section 11.1.2(a), exceeds an amount in euros equal to EUR 250,000 (the “Deductible Amount”), in which case the Buyer Indemnifying Party, or the Seller Indemnifying Parties when relevant, shall only be
liable for the amount exceeding such Deductible Amount. 
 (c) No claim of Buyer or Seller in respect of any individual event or occurrence
shall be deemed to give rise to indemnification under Section 11.1.1 (a) or 11.1.2(a) of this Agreement, or shall be taken into account for purposes of calculating the Deductible Amount referred to in paragraph
(b) above, unless and until the Loss related to such claim claimed exceeds fifty thousand euros (EUR 50,000). For the purposes of the preceding sentence, in the event of a series of claims based on the same or a related set of facts, events or
circumstances, such series of claims shall be treated as a single claim and the aggregate total of the Losses resulting from such series of claims shall be used to determine whether the foregoing amount has been exceeded. 

(d) The limitations set forth under paragraphs (b) to (c)above shall not apply to a violation of any of the Fundamental Representations.

 (e) The limitations set forth under paragraphs (a) to (c) above shall not apply to a VAT Claim 

(f) For the purposes of this Section 11.5, all amounts which are denominated in a currency other than the Euro shall
be converted into Euros at the rate prevailing on the date of the notice of the claim by the Indemnifiable Party. 
 11.6 Exclusions
– assessment of indemnification amount 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the amount of any damages for which
indemnification is provided under this Article 11 shall be net of (a) any amounts 

  
 41 













 
actually recovered by the Indemnifiable Party pursuant to any indemnification by, or indemnification agreement with, any Third Party, and (b) any insurance proceeds or other cash receipts or
sources of reimbursement actually recovered by the Indemnified Party (each such person named in clauses (a) and (b), a “Collateral Source”). If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under this Article
11 is determined after payment by the Indemnifying Party of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article 11, the Indemnifiable Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such
determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article 11 had such determination been made at the time of such payment. The Indemnifiable Party shall make all commercially reasonable efforts
to obtain the maximum recovery from relevant Collateral Sources, including any applicable insurance policies, in connection with any circumstances giving rise to a Loss and shall file in a timely manner all notices or claims on connection therewith.

 (b) In no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any Loss arising out of or in connection with a
change or development in Law after the Closing, including any change or development in the enforcement thereof. 
 (c) Save for any VAT
Claim, any Indemnified Party shall in no event be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any Loss arising out of or in connection with a matter (i) disclosed (by actual disclosure or incorporation by reference) in the Schedules or
(ii) Fairly Disclosed in the Disclosed Documentation. 
 (d) In no event shall any Indemnifiable Party be entitled to double recovery
under this Agreement and/or any other Transaction Documents. In particular, in the event any circumstances giving rise to a Loss constitute a breach of more than one representation and warranty, obligation or covenant on the part of the Indemnifying
Party, the Indemnifiable Party shall only be entitled to be indemnified once in respect of such Loss. No indemnification shall be available to Buyer hereunder in respect of any Loss which is directly resulting from any conduct or action by Buyer or
its Affiliates prior to or after the Closing Date, or of, the Company or their Affiliates after the Closing Date (including any restructuring or Tax election) to the extent (except if such conduct or action constitutes a breach by Buyer or the
Company of a covenant under this Agreement) Buyer, the Company or one of their Affiliates, as the case may be, knew or ought to have known (exercising reasonable care) that their respective conduct or action would result in a Loss. 

(e) If any claim for indemnification is based upon a liability which is contingent, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to make any
indemnification payment to the Indemnifiable Party unless and until such contingent liability becomes due and payable, other than payments made to the Indemnifiable Party to cover the costs and expenses of investigating or defending such contingent
liability, including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the Indemnifiable Party; provided, however, that any claim for indemnification that is made with respect to a contingent liability prior to the termination of the survival period
defined in Section 11.7 shall not be denied, and no Indemnifying Party’s liability hereunder shall be extinguished solely because such liability remains contingent at the end of such survival period. 

(f) The Indemnifiable Party shall take all commercially reasonable steps to avoid or mitigate any Loss in respect of which it might be
entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article 11. 
 (g) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided for
under this Article 11 shall be net of any Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnifiable Party or its Affiliates from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss. 

  
 42 













 (h) The Indemnifying Party shall be liable only for all direct damages (préjudice
direct) incurred by the Indemnifiable Party as a result of a breach of representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in the Transaction Documents. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any lost profits, lost revenues, lost
opportunities or any consequential, indirect, or punitive damages. 
 (i) Any payment made by a Seller Indemnifying Party to Buyer pursuant
to this Article 11 shall constitute a reduction of the Final Purchase Price up to the amount of the Final Purchase Price and shall be treated as such by Seller and Buyer, to the maximum extent permitted by Law, for all accounting and tax purposes.

 (j) No Loss shall be increased for any Taxes arising for the sole reason that payment for such Loss under this Article 11 is made
to a Person other than the Indemnifiable Party who suffered itself such Loss. 
 (k) The obligation of the Seller Indemnifying Party to
indemnify and hold any Buyer Indemnified Party harmless from and against any Loss under this Article 11 shall not be affected by any merger or similar combination of the Company, but shall automatically be transferred to the Resulting Entity
and be binding upon it. 
 (l) If the Buyer Indemnified Party receiving a payment under this Article 11 incurs a Tax liability which results
from, or is calculated by reference to, such payment, the amount payable by the Seller Indemnifying Party shall be increased by such amount as will ensure that, after payment of the Tax liability, the recipient is left with a net sum equal to the
sum it would have received had no such liability arisen. 
 (m) For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification obligation of Seller under
this Agreement shall be limited to the Loss (giving effect to the limitations set forth in this Agreement) actually suffered by the Buyer Indemnified Party or the Company, and shall be computed without regard to any cash flow or earnings multiple or
similar valuation formula implicit in negotiating and/or setting the Final Purchase Price. 
 11.7 Remedies Exclusive 

Each Party’s rights under this Agreement with respect to any Loss shall be their sole and exclusive remedy for money damages under this
Agreement, and they shall not be entitled to pursue, and hereby expressly waive, any and all rights that may otherwise be available under any applicable Law including without limitation, any rescission, nullification or termination rights with
respect to the Agreement or any Related Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer waives any claim or cause of action which it otherwise might assert, including, without limitation, under any applicable Law or regulations,
by reason of this Agreement, the Related Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 11.8 When Payable 

The payment of any indemnification required to be made to the Indemnified Party pursuant to Article 11 shall be made: 

(a) within ten (10) Business Days following the date on which such indemnification becomes due as a result of an agreement between the
Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, or its amount becomes final and binding upon the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party as a result of an arbitral award in accordance with Section 12.4; 

  
 43 













 (b) in connection with a claim in relation to Tax; within five (5) Business Days before
the deadline on which the corresponding shall be paid to the competent Governmental Authority pursuant to an enforceable order (titre exécutoire); 

(c) in all cases, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such bank accounts as the receiving Indemnified Party shall designate in
writing (xx) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the expiration of the ten (10) Business Day period referred to at (a) above or (yy) with respect to a Tax claim, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the deadline on

Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 11.1 for that portion of any Losses attributable to the increase, exacerbation, or aggravation of any Remedial Action resulting from an

12.6 Interpretation 
 The
Parties have participated jointly in the negotiating and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or a question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or
burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

extent any provision of the other Transaction Documents is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the provision of this Agreement shall prevail. 

12.7 Waivers 
 Any waiver
by any Party of any violation of, breach of, or default under, any provision of this Agreement, by any other Party shall not be construed as, or constitute, a continuing waiver of such provision, or waiver of any other violation of, breach of or

disproportion (disproportion manifeste) between its cost for the defaulting Party and its advantage for the requesting Party(ies), provided that damages may always be awarded to such requesting Party(ies) in addition to such specific
performance.

shall be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The Parties shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that
