          2

          
            


        

        2.3         Estimated Purchase Price.

         

        (a)         At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller Representative shall furnish to Buyer a certificate (the “Closing Certificate”)
          setting forth (in each case, with reasonable supporting detail): (a) a good faith estimate of Closing Cash (the “Estimated Closing Cash”), (b) a good faith estimate of the Working





          Capital (the “Estimated Working Capital”), including the Estimated Working Capital Overage or Estimated Working Capital Underage, (c) a good faith estimate of the
          aggregate amount of Closing Company Debt outstanding immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Closing Company Debt”), (d) a good faith estimate of the Selling Expenses (the “Estimated Selling
              Expenses”), and (e) the Estimated Purchase Price calculated therefrom.

         

        (b)         Without limiting Buyer’s rights under Section 2.5, Seller





          Representative shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments by Buyer with respect to the amounts set forth on the Closing Certificate; however, Seller Representative shall not be required to adjust the Closing Certificate or any amounts set forth therein in response to Buyer’s comments
          and any decision by Seller Representative not to reflect any such comments in the Closing Certificate shall not in any event delay or prevent
          the consummation of the Closing.

         

        2.4         Closing Payments.  At the Closing,
          Buyer shall make the following payments (collectively, the “Closing Payments”):

         

        (a)         Buyer shall pay (on behalf of the Company Entities) the Estimated






          Selling Expenses to the Persons entitled to receive such payment; and

         

        (b)        Buyer shall pay an aggregate amount equal to the Estimated Purchase Price to Seller Representative, on behalf of the Seller Parties, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with payment instructions
          delivered by Seller Representative to Buyer.

         

        2.5         Purchase Price Adjustment.

         

        (a)        Final Statement.  Within
          seventy-five (75) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver, or cause to be prepared and delivered, to Seller Representative a
          statement (the “Final Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Company Debt and Selling Expenses.  If Buyer fails to deliver the Final Statement within such seventy-five (75)-day period, then in addition to any other rights Seller Representative may have under this Agreement, Seller Representative shall have the right to elect that the Estimated Purchase Price
          be deemed to be the amount of the Purchase Price and be final, conclusive and binding on the parties and used for purposes of calculating the adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.5.

         

        
          3

          
            


        

        (b)        Final Statement Dispute.  Within forty-five (45) days following receipt by Seller Representative of the Final Statement,
          Seller Representative shall deliver written notice to Buyer describing in reasonable detail any dispute (including the amount thereof) it has with respect to the preparation or content of the Final Statement.  If Seller Representative does not so notify Buyer of a dispute with respect to the Final





          Statement within such forty-five (45)-day period, such Final Statement will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.  In the event of such timely notification of a dispute, Buyer and Seller Representative shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such disputed items.  If Buyer and Seller Representative, notwithstanding
          such good faith effort, fail to resolve such disputed items within fifteen (15) days after Seller Representative advises Buyer of its objections, then Buyer and Seller Representative jointly shall engage the Arbitration Firm to resolve only such disputed items and/or items still in dispute.  In the event
          Buyer and Seller Representative engage the Arbitration Firm, as promptly as practicable thereafter, Buyer and Seller Representative shall each prepare and submit a presentation to the Arbitration Firm.  As soon as practicable thereafter, Buyer and Seller Representative shall cause the Arbitration Firm to render a decision based solely upon the presentations by Buyer and Seller Representative.  In resolving any disputed item, the Arbitration Firm shall be limited to picking from or between the values assigned to
          each item by Buyer and Seller Representative, and may not assign a value to any item outside of the range of values claimed for such item by either party.  Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller Representative, on the other hand, will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the Arbitration Firm in proportion to its or their
          loss, if any, in any such arbitration (e.g., if Buyer is awarded 60% of the difference between its claim and the claim of Seller





          Representative through the arbitration proceeding, it must pay 40% of the arbitrator’s fees, and Seller Representative must pay the remaining 60% of the arbitrator’s fees).  All determinations
          made by the Arbitration Firm will be final, conclusive and binding on the parties to this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
          dispute resolution mechanism contained in this Section 2.5(b) shall be the exclusive mechanism for
          resolving disputes regarding the Purchase Price adjustment, if any, and neither Buyer nor Seller Representative shall be entitled to
          indemnification for Losses pursuant to Article X to the
          extent (i) taken into account in the determination of the Purchase Price or (ii) such matter was adjudicated by the Arbitration Firm.

         

        (c)       Access.  For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 2.5, Buyer and the Company Entities, on the one hand,
          and Seller Representative, on the other hand, shall cooperate with and make available to each other and their respective representatives all information, records, data and working papers, and
          shall permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably requested in connection with the preparation and analysis of the Final Statement and the resolution of any disputes
          thereunder.  If Buyer and the Company Entities, on the one hand, or Seller Representative, on the other hand, breach their respective obligations
          under this Section 2.5(c), the dispute periods set forth in Section 2.5(b) shall automatically be extended until such breach is cured by the breaching party.

         

        
          4

          
            


        

        (d)         Payment.  Within five (5) Business Days after Working Capital and Closing Cash are finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5(a) and Section 2.5(b):

         

        (i)          If the amount calculated by taking (x)(i) Working
          Capital plus (ii) Closing Cash minus (iii) Closing Company Debt minus (iv) Selling Expenses and subtracting (y)(i) Estimated Working Capital plus (ii) Estimated Closing Cash minus (iii) Estimated Closing Company Debt minus (iv) Estimated Selling Expenses (such difference, the “Adjustment Amount”) (A) is
          positive, then Buyer shall pay to Seller Representative, on behalf of the Seller Parties, the Adjustment






          Amount by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller Representative or (B) is negative, then Seller Representative, on behalf of the Seller Parties, shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to the absolute value of the Adjustment Amount by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer.

         

        (ii)          If the Adjustment Amount is zero, then no additional payments shall be required by Buyer or Seller Representative, and the Estimated Purchase Price (and Estimated Working
          Capital included therein) shall be deemed to be the amount of the Purchase Price and be final, conclusive and binding on the parties.

         

        2.6          Purchase Price Allocation. 

         

        (a)         Within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the final determination of the Purchase Price under Section 2.5 hereunder, Buyer shall allocate for U.S. federal income tax purposes the Purchase Price (together with any Assumed Liabilities or other items properly treated as purchase price for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the
          Equity Interests, the assets of any Company Entity for which an allocation is relevant and the Purchased Assets (the “Proposed Allocation”), and Buyer shall promptly provide a copy of the Proposed
          Allocation to Seller Representative.  The Proposed Allocation shall be prepared taking into account any written valuation reports prepared by
          any independent, third-party valuation firms with the requisite expertise and experience, to the extent available to the parties.  Within forty-five (45) days thereafter, Seller Representative
          will deliver either a notice accepting the Proposed Allocation or a statement setting forth in reasonable detail any objections thereto and the basis for such objections.  If Seller Representative timely delivers a statement setting forth objections to the Proposed Allocation in accordance with the previous sentence,
          Buyer and the Seller Representative will use good faith efforts to resolve such objections.  If Buyer and the Seller Representative are
          unable to mutually agree on the allocation, the procedure set forth in Section 2.5(b) will control.  If Seller Representative
          accepts the Proposed Allocation (or does not within the forty-five (45) day period described above deliver a statement setting forth in reasonable detail any objections described above), the Proposed Allocation shall be binding on the parties without further adjustment.  The agreed allocation shall be amended to reflect any adjustment to the Purchase





          Price hereunder.  Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, Buyer, the Company Entities and the Seller Parties will report the allocation of the total
          consideration in a manner consistent with the allocation statement as finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.6 and will act in accordance with such allocation in the preparation
          and timely filing of all Tax Returns and any Tax Proceeding, audit or similar action unless otherwise required by
          applicable Law.

         

        
          5

          
            


        

        (b)         Seller Representative shall provide, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, an allocation of the Estimated Purchase Price among the
          Purchased Assets and the Equity Interests of each Company Entity (the “Preliminary Allocation”). 





          If Buyer disagrees with the Preliminary Allocation provided by Seller Representative, Buyer and Seller Representative shall jointly revise the Preliminary Allocation in a manner reasonably acceptable to both parties.  For the avoidance
          of doubt, the Preliminary Allocation shall not be binding on the parties for purposes of Section 2.6(a); provided, however, that
          any such amounts shall be treated as final to the extent that such allocation is required to be final pursuant to applicable Law.

         

        2.7         Withholding.  Buyer or any
          applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement all amounts that Buyer or any applicable withholding agent is required
          to deduct and withhold under any applicable provision of Tax Law and shall remit such amounts to the appropriate Governmental Authority, provided that
          Buyer shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Seller Representative with written notice of any such withholding, (ii) cooperate in good faith with Seller Parties to reduce or eliminate any such withholding and (iii) provide documentation of the reporting and payment of any such withholding if reasonably requested.  To the extent such amounts are so
          deducted, withheld and paid over, such amounts shall be treated as paid to the appropriate Seller Party hereunder.

         

        2.8         Non-Assignable Assets.

         

        (a)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of this Section 2.8, to the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, to Buyer of any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability would result in a violation of applicable Law, or would require the consent, authorization, approval or waiver of a Person who is not a
          party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement (including any Governmental Authority), and such consent, authorization, approval or waiver shall not have been obtained before the Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery, thereof at Closing;






          provided that, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions contained in Article VIII, the Closing shall occur notwithstanding the foregoing without any adjustment to the Purchase Price on account thereof. 
          Following the Closing for a period of one hundred and twenty (120) days, the Asset Sellers and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and shall
          reasonably cooperate with each other to obtain any such required consent, authorization, approval or waiver, so that Buyer shall be entitled to the rights and benefits of, and shall be solely responsible for the liabilities and obligations
          arising from or related to such Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability from and after the Closing Date; provided that neither the Asset Sellers nor Buyer shall be required to pay any consideration therefor.  Once such consent, authorization, approval or waiver is obtained, the Asset
          Sellers shall and without further action hereby do sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer the relevant Purchased Asset and Buyer hereby accepts and assumes any such Assumed Liability to which such consent, authorization, approval or waiver relates for no additional consideration.  Applicable Transfer Taxes in connection with such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or license shall be paid in accordance with Section 7.10(i).

         

        
          6

          
            


        

        (b)         To the extent that any Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, or both, cannot be transferred to Buyer following
          the Closing under this Section 2.8, Buyer and the Asset Sellers shall use commercially reasonable
          efforts to enter into such arrangements (such as subleasing, sub-licensing or subcontracting) to provide to the parties the economic and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the transfer of such Purchased Asset
          or Assumed Liability to Buyer as of the Closing and the performance by Buyer of its obligations with respect thereto.  Buyer shall, as agent or
          subcontractor for the Asset Sellers pay, perform and discharge fully the liabilities and obligations of the applicable Asset Seller thereunder from and
          after the Closing Date.  To the extent permitted under applicable Law, the Asset Sellers shall, at Buyer’s expense, hold in trust for and pay to Buyer
          promptly upon receipt thereof, such Purchased Asset and all income, proceeds and other monies received by the Asset Sellers to the extent related to such Purchased Asset in connection with the
          arrangements under this Section 2.8.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2.8
          shall not apply to any consent or approval required under the Investment Canada Act, or under any antitrust or trade regulation Law.

         

        2.9        Completion of Sale and Purchase of all Purchased Assets and Equity Interests.  Buyer shall not be obligated to complete the sale and purchase of any of the Purchased Assets and Equity
          Interests unless the sale and purchase of all of the Purchased Assets and Equity Interests is completed simultaneously.

         

        ARTICLE III

        CLOSING AND DELIVERIES

         

        3.1         Deliveries





              by Seller Parties.  At the Closing, the Seller Parties shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Buyer the following items:

          that could reasonably be expected to result in any material liability or excise tax under ERISA or the Code being imposed on a Company






          Entity.

         

        (d)         Each Employee Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a)

          any compensation or benefits to any current or former director, officer, employee or other individual service provider of any Company Entities under any Employee






          Plan or otherwise, or result in the forgiveness of any such individual’s indebtedness, (ii) directly or indirectly cause any of the Company Entities to transfer or set aside any assets to fund any
          benefits under any Employee Plan or limit or restrict the right to merge, amend, terminate or transfer the assets of any Employee Plan on or following

          benefits, constitute an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code), be nondeductible to the payor under Section 280G of the Code or
          result in an excise Tax on any recipient under Section 4999 of the Code.

        (j)          No Company Entities have any obligation to gross-up, indemnify or otherwise reimburse any Business Continuing Employees for any Tax incurred by such employee, officer, director or individual service provider, including under Sections 409A or
          4999 of the Code.

        (b)         Buyer and Granite Holdings are each duly qualified to do business, and in good standing, in each jurisdiction in
          which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the conduct of its business requires it to be so qualified.

          The execution and delivery of this Agreement and such other agreements and documents, the performance of such obligations and the consummation of the
          transactions contemplated herein and therein have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Buyer and Granite Holdings.  This Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by Buyer and Granite Holdings and, assuming the due authorization, execution and

        (a)        Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Buyer or Granite Holdings or the other agreements and documents contemplated hereby to be executed and delivered by Buyer or Granite Holdings, as applicable, nor the consummation by Buyer or Granite Holdings of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, nor compliance
          by Buyer or Granite Holdings with any of the provisions hereof, will (i) conflict with or result in a breach of any provisions of the certificate of formation or
          limited liability company agreement (or equivalent organizational documents) of Buyer or Granite Holdings, (ii) constitute
          or result in the breach of any term, condition or provision of, or constitute a default under, or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration with respect to, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of pursuant to any Contract to which Buyer or Granite Holdings is a party or by
          which Buyer or Granite Holdings or any of Buyer’s or Granite Holdings’ properties or assets may be subject, and that would, in any such event, have
          a Material Adverse Effect on Buyer or Granite Holdings or (iii) violate any Order or Law applicable to either Buyer or Granite Holdings or any of their properties or assets.

         

        (b)          No Consent is necessary for the consummation by Buyer of the transactions contemplated by this

        6.4         Independent





              Investigation; No Reliance.  In connection with its investment decision, Buyer and/or its representatives have inspected and conducted such reasonable independent review, investigation and analysis (financial and otherwise) of the
          Business as desired by Buyer.  The consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby by Buyer are not done in reliance upon any representation or warranty or omission by, or information from, the Seller





          Parties, the Company Entities or any of their respective Affiliates, employees or representatives, whether oral or written, express or implied, including
          any implied warranty of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose, except for the representations and warranties specifically and expressly set forth in ARTICLE IV and ARTICLE V (in each case, as modified by the Schedules),





          and Buyer acknowledges that the Seller Parties expressly disclaim any other representations and warranties.  Buyer further acknowledges that neither the Seller





          Parties nor any other Person has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Company





          Entities, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Business or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement not specifically and expressly
          set forth in ARTICLE IV and ARTICLE V (in each case, as modified by the Schedules),





          and neither the Seller Parties nor any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to Buyer or any other Person
          resulting from the distribution to Buyer or its representatives or Buyer’s use of any such information, including any management presentation distributed on behalf of the Seller Parties or the Company Entities relating to Business or other publications or data room (including any electronic or “virtual” data room) information provided or made available to Buyer or its representatives, or
          any other document or information in any form provided or made available to Buyer or its representatives, including management presentations, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

         

        6.5       Investment





              Purpose.  Buyer is acquiring the Equity Interests solely for its own account for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof.  Buyer is an “accredited investor” as
          defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Buyer acknowledges that the Equity Interests are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any
          state or foreign securities laws, and that the Equity Interests may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and subject
          to state and foreign securities laws and regulations, as applicable.  Buyer is able to bear the economic risk of holding the Equity Interests for an indefinite period (including total loss of its investment), and has (either alone or together
          with its advisors) sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risk of its investment.

         

        6.6         Financing.

         

        (a)         Buyer has delivered to Seller Representative a true, complete
          and correct copy of a fully executed debt commitment letter, together with any related fee letters (in the case of the fee letters, redacted only for provisions related to fee amounts, flex terms, rates, pricing caps and other economic terms,
          none of which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the availability of the Debt Financing or reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing
          below the amount, together with any cash of Buyer and its Subsidiaries, to pay the Acquisition
          Amounts (as defined herein), in each case, on the Closing Date) (any such letter, the “Fee Letter”),
          dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Debt Financing Sources party thereto and Granite
          Holdings providing for debt financing as described therein (together, including all exhibits, schedules and annexes, as may be amended, restated, supplemented or replaced, in each case, in accordance with Section 7.12, the “Debt





              Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject only to the conditions set forth therein, the Debt Financing Sources party thereto have agreed to lend the
          amounts set forth therein on the Closing Date (the “Debt Financing”).

         

        
          32

          
            


        

        (b)         As of the date hereof, the Debt Commitment Letter is in full force and effect and constitutes the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Granite Holdings and, to the knowledge of Buyer, the other parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject to the General
          Enforceability Exceptions).  As of the date hereof, there are no conditions precedent or subsequent related to the funding of the full amount of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, other than the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter (such conditions precedent, the “Financing Conditions”).

         

        (c)         As of the date hereof, neither the Debt Commitment Letter
          nor the Fee Letter has been amended, waived, supplemented or modified in any manner, and the commitments contained therein have not been terminated, reduced, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect by Granite Holdings or, to the knowledge of Buyer, any other party thereto, and no such amendment, waiver, supplement, modification, termination,
          reduction, withdrawal or rescission is contemplated by Granite Holdings or, to the knowledge of Buyer, any other party thereto (except as set forth in
          the Fee Letter with respect to market flex provisions and except for amendments to add additional Debt Financing Sources thereto).

         

        (d)        As of the date hereof, assuming that the conditions to the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been satisfied or waived, then Buyer has no reason to believe that (i) any of the Financing Conditions will not be satisfied on or prior
          to the Closing Date or (ii) the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter will not be available to Buyer on the Closing Date or at any time thereafter.

         

        (e)          As of the date hereof, Granite Holdings is not in default or breach
          under the terms and conditions of the Debt Commitment Letter and no event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both,
          would or would reasonably be expected to constitute a default or breach or a failure to satisfy a condition under the terms and conditions of the Debt






          Commitment Letters, in each case, by Granite Holdings.

         

        (f)         As of the date hereof, there are no side letters, understandings or other agreements or arrangements relating to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Debt Financing to which Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter in any respect, other than those set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter.

         

        (g)         Buyer or an Affiliate thereof on its behalf has fully paid any and all commitment or other fees and amounts required by
          the Debt Commitment Letter to be paid on or prior to the date hereof.

         

        
          33

          
            


        

        (h)        Assuming the funding of the Debt Financing in accordance with the Debt Commitment Letter, Buyer will have at and as of the Closing Date sufficient available funds (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all
          available funds of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) and their Subsidiaries) to pay the Estimated Purchase Price, any payments to be made by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.5, any adjustments to the Estimated Purchase Price hereunder and all of the other fees, costs and expenses to be paid by Buyer under this Agreement (such amounts, collectively,
          the “Acquisition Amounts”).

         

        (i)          Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the applicable terms of this Agreement and satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby), in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or
          financing (including the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter) by or to
          Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any other financing transaction be a condition to any of the obligations of Buyer hereunder.

         

        6.7        Solvency. 





          Immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of Buyer and the Company Entities (a)





          will be solvent (in that both the fair value of its assets will not be less than the sum of its liabilities and that the present saleable value of its assets will not be less than the amount required to pay its probable liabilities as they become
          absolute and matured) and (b) will have adequate capital with which to engage in its business.

         

        6.8       Legal





              Proceedings.  There is no Action pending that relates to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or, to the knowledge of Buyer,
          threatened against or affecting Buyer or any of its Affiliates that challenges the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or seeks to enjoin or prohibit
          consummation of, or seeks other material equitable relief with respect to, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or that would reasonably be expected to impair or delay Buyer’s ability to
          consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         

        6.9        No





              Brokers.  No broker, finder or similar agent has been employed by or on behalf of Buyer, and no Person with which Buyer has had any dealings or communications of any kind is entitled to any
          brokerage commission, finder’s fee or any similar compensation in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

         

        6.10       Investment Canada Act.  Buyer is a “WTO investor” within the meaning of the
          Investment Canada Act.

         

        6.11      No
              Other Representations and Warranties.  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE VI BUYER MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AT LAW OR IN
          EQUITY, AND ANY SUCH OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED AND IF MADE, SUCH OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES MAY NOT BE RELIED UPON BY SELLER PARTIES OR ANY OF THEIR
          RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES AND REPRESENTATIVES.  THE DISCLOSURE OF ANY MATTER OR ITEM IN ANY SCHEDULE HERETO WILL NOT BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT
          ANY SUCH MATTER IS REQUIRED TO BE DISCLOSED.

          Agreement as if such provisions were set forth herein, and such provisions are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

         

        (d)         After the Closing, the Seller Parties shall not use and hold and shall cause
          each of their Affiliates to hold, and each such Seller Party shall use its reasonable efforts to cause its and its Affiliates’






          respective Representatives to hold, in confidence, unless required (on the advice of counsel) to disclose by Order or Law, all confidential documents and confidential information concerning the Purchased
          Assets, Company Entities or the Business, except to the extent that such information (a) is or becomes in the public domain other than as a result of disclosure by such Seller Party or its Affiliate or Representative in violation of this Agreement, (b) later becomes lawfully acquired

          transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written approval (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of, in the case of a press release or other public announcement by Buyer, Seller Representative and, in the case of a press release or other public announcement by the Seller Parties, Buyer.

         

        7.4         Records. 





          With respect to the financial and other books and records and minute books of the Company Entities relating to matters on or prior to the Closing Date: 
          (a) for a period of five (5) years after the Closing Date, neither Buyer nor the Company Entities shall intentionally cause
          or permit their destruction or disposal without first offering to surrender them to the Seller Parties; and (b) where there is legitimate purpose, including, but not
          limited to, an audit of Seller Parties or their equity holders by the IRS or any other Taxing Authority, an Action involving Seller Parties or their equity holders (but not any Action involving Buyer or its Affiliates), to comply with financial reporting obligations, or a claim or dispute relating to this Agreement, Buyer shall allow Seller Parties and their representatives reasonable access to such books and records during regular business hours.

        (a)         Buyer shall not, and shall not
          permit any Company Entity to, amend, repeal or modify in a manner adverse to the beneficiary thereof any provision in such Company Entity’s

          other assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Buyer shall cause proper provision to be made so that the applicable successors and assigns or transferees expressly assume the obligations set forth
          in this Section 7.5.

         

        (d)        From and after the Closing Date, Buyer agrees that it will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Seller Parties and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders from and against all Losses






          arising out of, relating to or resulting from the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities (excluding any Losses arising out of, relating to or resulting
          from any Retained Liabilities) irrespective of whether such Losses attach or accrue to Seller Parties or Buyer
          in the first instance. 

         

        
          38

          
            


        

        (e)         From and after the Closing Date, Seller Parties agree that they will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees,
          stockholders from and against all Losses arising out of, relating to or resulting from the Excluded Assets or Retained






          Liabilities, irrespective of whether such Losses attach or accrue to Buyer or any Seller Party in the first instance.

         

        (f)         The provisions of this Section 7.5 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each indemnified party, his or her heirs and his or her representatives and are
          in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Person may have by contract or otherwise.

         

        (g)         As soon as reasonably practical after a party seeking indemnity under Section





              7.5(d) or Section 7.5(e) (an “Indemnified





              Party”) has knowledge of a claim or potential claim covered by such section (an “Indemnified Claim”) (and in any event within
          15 days after discovery of such Indemnified Claim), the Indemnified Party shall give written notice of such Indemnified Claim to the party who is obligated to indemnify for such Indemnified Claim (the “Indemnitor”); provided that the failure to timely provide such notice shall not release the Indemnitor from any obligation under this Section 7.5, except
          to the extent the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such delay.  In the event of any Indemnified Claim by a third party against an Indemnified Party for which indemnification is available hereunder, the Indemnitor shall have the right to assume and conduct the defense of such Indemnified Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnitor.  If the Indemnitor assumes the defense of such Indemnified Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have a reasonable opportunity to also participate in (but not control) the defense of such Indemnified Claim with its own counsel and at its own expense.  The Indemnitor shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any
          judgment arising from any third party Indemnified Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, provided, that the Indemnitor shall (i) pay all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment, (ii) obtain, as a condition to such settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party affected by such third party Indemnified Claim and (iii) the settlement or compromise does not include or entail (A) the imposition
          of any consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or (B) any admission of liability or fault on the part of any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates.

         

        7.6         Reasonable Efforts; Cooperation; Regulatory Filings.

         

        (a)         Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.6, each of the parties agrees to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to
          assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, as promptly as reasonably practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement





          and to obtain satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including obtaining all of the necessary Consents from Governmental Authorities and other third parties and the making of all filings and the taking of all steps as may be reasonably necessary to obtain Consent





          from, or to avoid an Action by, any Governmental Authority.

         

        
          39

          
            


        

        (b)        Buyer and, where applicable, the Seller
          Parties will, within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof, make or cause to be made all filings and submissions under any Laws or regulations applicable to Buyer, Seller Parties and their respective Affiliates for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and, in each case, include in each filing or
          submission a request for early termination or acceleration of any applicable waiting or review periods, to the extent available under the applicable Laws or regulations.  Subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each of
          Buyer and the Seller Parties will, to the extent reasonably practicable, have the right to review in advance, and consult with the other party on, all the information that appears in any such filings. 
          In exercising the foregoing right, Buyer and the Seller Parties will act reasonably and as promptly as practicable.  Buyer will pay all fees associated with all filings and submissions referred to in
          this Section 7.6(b).

         

        (c)         Buyer and Seller Parties will comply with any additional requests for information,
          including requests for production of documents and production of witnesses for interviews or depositions by any Governmental Authority.  Buyer and, with prior consent of or at the request of
          Buyer, the Seller Parties, agree to take any and all actions that are reasonably necessary or advisable or as may reasonably be required by any Governmental Authority to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including selling, licensing or otherwise disposing of, or
          holding separate and agreeing to sell, license or otherwise dispose of, any entities, assets or facilities; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be required to divest or otherwise dispose of Buyer or its Affiliates






          or any assets or equity interests of Buyer or its Affiliates.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Buyer shall not be required
          to, and none of the Seller Parties shall, without the prior written consent of Buyer, take any action, or commit to take any action,






          or agree to any condition or limitation contemplated in this Section 7.6 that is not conditioned on the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding anything
          in the foregoing or in Section 7.6 or anything otherwise contained in this Agreement that may in any such case be deemed to the contrary, the
          parties hereto understand and agree that Buyer (including its Affiliates) shall not be required to take any action with respect to any entities, assets or
          facilities of the Company Entities that generated or represented an amount equal to seven and one-half percent (7.5%) or more of the Company Entities’
          consolidated sales for the twelve (12) month period ending December 31, 2021.

         

        
          40

          
            


        

        (d)        Except as specifically required by this Agreement, Buyer will not take any action, or refrain from taking any action, the effect of which would be to materially delay or materially impede the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the
          transactions contemplated hereby.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer will not, and will not permit any of its Affiliates to, acquire or agree to acquire (by merging or consolidating
          with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in, or by any other manner), any Person or portion thereof, or otherwise acquire or agree to acquire any assets, if the entering into
          a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such acquisition, merger or consolidation could reasonably be expected to (i) impose any material delay in the
          obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, any permits, orders or other approvals of any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated
          hereby or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period, (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order
          prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise, or (iv)
          materially delay or prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall, on behalf of the parties, control and lead
          all strategy for dealing with any other Governmental Authority under the HSR Act or any foreign merger control Laws, subject to its obligation, as
          outlined in this Section 7.6, to cooperate with and work with the Seller Parties in good faith.

         

        (e)         Buyer and Seller Representative will keep each other apprised of the status of
          all filings and submissions referred to in Section 7.6(b), including promptly furnishing the other with
          copies of notices or other communications received by Buyer or Seller Parties (as applicable) in connection therewith.  Buyer, Seller
          Representative and Seller Parties will not permit any of their respective officers, employees or other representatives or agents to participate in any substantive meeting or conference with any Governmental Authority in respect of such filings and submissions unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other party the opportunity to attend and participate thereat.

         

        7.7        Contact





              with Customers, Origination and Referral Sources and Other Business Relations.  Prior to the Closing, Buyer and its Affiliates and representatives
          will contact and communicate with the employees, customers, origination and referral sources and other business relations of the Business in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby only after prior consultation with and written
          approval of Seller Representative, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

         

        7.8         Plant Closings and Mass Layoffs.  Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Company
          Entities not to, take any action following the Closing that could result in WARN Act liability or similar liability under any
          other federal, state, local or foreign law.

         

        7.9          Employees; Benefit Plans.

         

        (a)        During the period commencing at the Closing and ending on the date which is 12 months from the
          Closing (or if earlier, the date of the employee’s termination of employment with the Company Entities), Buyer shall and shall cause the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) to provide each employee of the Company Entities who
          remains employed immediately after the Closing (“Company Entity Continuing Employees”)
          with: (i) base salary or hourly wages that are no less than the base salary or hourly wages provided by the Company Entities immediately prior to the Closing;






          (ii) target bonus opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation), if any, that are no less than the target bonus opportunities (excluding equity-based compensation) provided by the Company
          Entities immediately prior to the Closing; (iii) retirement and welfare benefits (excluding any equity or equity-based, nonqualified deferred compensation, retention, incentive, bonus, change in control or
          transaction compensation and defined pension benefits or retiree health or welfare benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate to those provided by the Company Entities immediately prior
          to the Closing; and (iv) severance benefits that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the practice, plan or policy in effect for such Company Entity Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing.

         

        
          41

          
            


        

        (b)         Within a reasonable period of time (but not less than seven (7) calendar days) prior to
          the Closing Date, Buyer shall make an offer of employment, commencing as of the Closing Date to each employee of the Asset Sellers engaged in the Business (the “Canadian Business Employees”), which
          employees as of the date hereof are listed on Schedule 7.9(b), in the same job or position and location as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date and at a salary or wage level, bonus opportunity, severance, retirement and welfare benefits (excluding any nonqualified deferred compensation, defined benefit pension benefits or retiree
          health or welfare benefits) that are no less favorable in the aggregate to the salary and wage level, bonus opportunity, severance, retirement and welfare benefits to which they were entitled immediately prior to the Closing Date. Canadian Business Employees who accept such offers of employment from Buyer are referred to herein as “Canadian Business Continuing Employees;” and collectively with the Company Entity Continuing Employees, as “Business Continuing Employees”.  The obligation of Buyer under this Section 7.9(b) to provide the specified conditions of employment relating to pay, severance
          and employee benefits shall continue for a period ending not earlier than 12 months following the Closing.

         

        (c)         With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by Buyer or its Subsidiaries
          (collectively, “Buyer Benefit Plans”) in which any Business Continuing Employees
          will participate effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company Entities to, recognize all service of the Business Continuing Employees with the Company Entities as if such service were with Buyer, for vesting and eligibility purposes in any Buyer Benefit Plan in which such Business Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing Date; provided, however, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (i) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or (ii) such service was not recognized under the
          corresponding Employee Plan.

         

        (d)        Buyer and the Asset Sellers intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement






          should not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any employee of the Asset Sellers who accepts an employment offer by Buyer that is consistent with the requirements of Section 7.9(b), including for purposes of any Employee Plan that provides for separation, termination or severance benefits, and that each such
          employee of the Asset Sellers will have continuous employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing.  Buyer shall be liable and indemnify and
          hold the Seller Parties harmless for any claims arising following Closing relating to the employment of any Business





          Continuing Employee.

         

        
          42

          
            


        

        (e)         This Section 7.9 shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of
          each of the parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 7.9, express or implied, shall confer upon any other Person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Section 7.9. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall
          be construed to establish, amend or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the terms set forth in this Section 7.9 shall not create any right in any employee or any other Person to any continued employment with the Company
          Entities, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or compensation or benefits of any nature or kind whatsoever.

         

        7.10       Taxes.

         

        (a)         If not filed by the Company






          Entities prior to the Closing, Seller Representative shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) for Pre-Closing Tax Periods the due date of which (taking into account extensions of time to file) is after the Closing Date other than any Tax Returns for a Straddle Period.  Seller Representative shall submit each such Tax Return (or substantially completed drafts of such Tax Returns) related to Income Taxes and any other material Tax Returns not related to the Asset Sellers to Buyer (i) at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) in the case of
          any Tax Return related to Income Taxes or (ii) within a reasonable period of time (and in any event no later than three (3) Business Days) before it is due in the case of any other material Tax Return for Buyer’s review and approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
          conditioned or delayed) and shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments from Buyer to such Tax Returns.

         

        (b)          Buyer shall prepare
          or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, all Tax Returns of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) for any Straddle Period.  Buyer shall submit each such Tax Return (or substantially completed
          drafts of such Tax Returns) related to Income Taxes and any other material Tax Returns to the Seller Representative (i) at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date (taking into account any extensions) in the case of any Tax Return related
          to Income Taxes or (ii) within a reasonable period of time (and in any event no later than three (3) Business Days) before it is due in the case of any other
          material Tax Return for the Seller Representative review and approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and shall
          consider in good faith any reasonable comments from Seller Representative to such Tax Returns.  Seller
          Parties (and Seller Representative) shall cooperate with Buyer and make available to Buyer any information reasonably requested by Buyer for the preparation of any Tax Return of any Company Entity (other than the Asset Sellers) for any Straddle Period.

         

        (c)         All Tax Returns prepared
          and filed under Section 7.10(a) and Section 7.10(b) shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with the past
          procedures and practices and accounting methods of the Company Entities except as required by applicable law.  At least two (2) Business Days before the
          due date of any Tax Return not relating to the Asset Sellers prepared and filed under Section 7.10(a)
          or Section 7.10(b) Seller Representative shall pay to Buyer the amount shown as being due on such Tax Return that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Periods to the extent such amount has not been included in the calculations of Working Capital or otherwise specifically identified as a reduction of the Purchase Price.

         

        
          43

          
            


        

        (d)         Except as required by Law or with the consent of Seller Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld,
          conditioned or delayed), after the Closing, Buyer and its Affiliates shall not, and Buyer and its Affiliates shall not
          permit the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) to, (a) other than Tax Returns that are filed
          pursuant to Section 7.10(a) and Section 7.10(b), file or amend or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, (b) after the date any Tax Return filed pursuant to Section 7.10(a) or Section 7.10(b) is filed, amend or
          otherwise modify any such Tax Return, (c) make or change any Tax election or accounting method or practice that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or (d) make or initiate any voluntary contact with a Taxing Authority regarding any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

         

        (e)         Notwithstanding any
          other provision of this Agreement, in the event the Seller Parties could become liable for any payment obligation due to any claim, audit, examination,
          administrative or court proceeding relating to any audits or assessments or other disputes regarding any Taxes or any Tax Return filed by the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods (including any
          Seller Indemnified Taxes) (including any settlement or disposition thereof) (a “Tax Proceeding”)





          other than with respect to a Straddle Period, the Seller Representative shall have the sole right in its discretion to elect to represent the
          interests of the Company Entities in such a Tax Proceeding; provided, that the Seller Representative shall keep Buyer reasonably informed with respect to any material developments related to such Tax Proceeding and Buyer shall
          have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Seller Representative; provided, further, that the Seller Representative shall not consent to the entry of any
          judgment, or settle, compromise or discharge any such claim, audit, examination, administrative or court proceeding without the prior written consent of Buyer (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such action would have the effect of increasing the present or future Tax liability or decreasing any present or future Tax asset of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers), Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates.  After the Closing, Buyer shall and shall cause the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) to promptly notify the Seller Representative in writing upon receiving notice from any Taxing Authority of the commencement of any such Tax Proceeding, and Buyer shall take all action reasonably necessary (including providing a power of attorney) to enable the Seller Representative to exercise its control rights as set forth in this Section 7.10(e).  If the Seller Representative or its designee fails, after receiving notice from Buyer, to timely control any Tax Proceeding, Buyer or its designee shall
          control such Tax Proceeding.  In the case of any Tax Proceeding related to a Straddle Period, Buyer or its
          designee shall have the right to control such Tax Proceeding.  Buyer shall (i) keep the Seller Representative reasonably informed with respect to
          any material developments related to such Tax Proceeding, (ii) provide the Seller Representative with the right, at the Seller Representative’s sole expense, to participate in such Tax Proceeding (to the extent permitted by the applicable Taxing Authority) and (iii) not settle such Tax Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Seller






          Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

         

        
          44

          
            


        

        (f)         Buyer shall and shall cause the Company Entities (other than the Asset
          Sellers) to and the Seller Parties and Seller Representative shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by another party, in
          connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 7.10 and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with
          respect to Taxes and the computation and verification of any amounts paid or payable under this Section 7.10 (including any supporting work papers,
          schedules and documents).  Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making
          employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.  The Seller Parties and the Seller Representative and Buyer shall and shall cause the Company Entities (other than the Asset
          Sellers) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to such Company Entities relating to any Tax
          periods and shall abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority, and shall give the other parties reasonable written
          notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for that tax period, and if the other party so requests, shall allow the other party to take
          possession of such books and records rather than destroying or discarding such books and records.

         

        (g)        To the extent not included in the calculations of Working Capital or otherwise specifically identified as an increase
          to the Purchase Price, the Seller Parties shall be entitled to any Tax refunds (or credits in lieu of refunds) (net
          of Buyer’s reasonable costs and expenses in respect of the receipt or accrual of such refund or credit, to the extent not otherwise paid or reimbursed by the Seller Parties, including any Taxes resulting therefrom) that are received by Buyer or the Company Entities attributable to Taxes paid by the Company Entities with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period.  Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer shall pay
          over to the Seller Representative (on behalf of the Seller Parties), or as directed by the Seller






          Representative, any such refund (or credit in lieu of refund) within fifteen (15) Business Days (or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter) after receipt of such refund (or credit in lieu of such
          refund).  After the Closing, Buyer shall, at the reasonable request of the Seller Parties cause the Company
          Entities to work in good faith and use their commercially reasonable efforts to diligently prosecute any Tax refund claims in order to obtain any such Tax refunds or
          credits.

         

        (h)         To the extent it is necessary for purposes of this Agreement to determine
          the allocation of Taxes within a Straddle Period, Taxes of the Company
          Entities based on or measured by income, gross or net sales, or payments or receipts shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date and any other Taxes of the Company Entities shall be allocated between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period on a per diem basis.

         

        
          45

          
            


        

        (i)          Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller Parties, on the other hand, shall each pay 50% of any transfer, documentary, sales, use, value added,
          stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with consummation of the
          transactions contemplated by this Agreement imposed on Buyer, the Company Entities or Equity Sellers and their respective Affiliates as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”), except for any GST/HST collectible in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which shall be entirely for
          the account of Buyer.  Unless the Asset Sellers and Buyer jointly agree to make the necessary Tax election(s) to effectively exempt such transfer from GST/HST, the Asset Sellers shall collect all applicable GST/HST from Buyer concurrently with the consideration upon which such GST/HST is calculated; provided however, the Asset





          Sellers shall indemnify Buyer up to fifty percent (50%) of the amount of any such GST/HST paid that is not recovered by the Buyer or its Affiliates through an offsetting Tax





          credit, refund or similar benefit prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date.  Seller Representative agrees to cooperate with Buyer in the filing of any returns with respect to the Transfer Taxes, including promptly supplying any information in their possession that is reasonably necessary to complete such returns.

         

        (j)          The parties hereto shall, to the extent permitted or required under applicable Law, treat the Closing Date as the last
          day of the taxable period of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) for all Tax purposes.

         

        (k)         To the extent permitted by applicable Law, for Tax purposes, the parties hereto agree to treat all payments made by Buyer to or
          for the benefit of the Seller Parties pursuant to this Section 7.10 as adjustments to the Purchase





          Price, except for payments of Transfer Tax made to the Asset Sellers pursuant to Section 7.10(i).  The parties hereto further agree that any income Tax deduction attributable to items included in Company Debt, Selling Expenses or Working Capital will be, to the extent supportable at a “more likely than not” or higher standard of confidence, taken into account
          in the Pre-Closing Tax Period ending on the Closing Date.

         

        (l)          With respect to the transfer of the Purchased Assets from the Asset Sellers to Buyer, the following additional
          provisions shall apply:

         

        (i)         At the request of the Buyer, the Asset Sellers shall each, along with Buyer, jointly make an election in the prescribed
          manner and within the prescribed time limits, to have the rules in subsection 20(24) of the Income Tax Act (Canada), and any equivalent or corresponding provision under applicable provincial or territorial tax legislation, apply to the
          obligations of the Seller Parties in respect of undertakings which arise from the operation of the Business and to which paragraphs 12(1)(a) and 12(1)(e) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) apply.  For the
          purposes of such election(s), Buyer and such Asset Seller shall, acting reasonably, jointly determine the elected amount and Buyer and such Asset Seller
          acknowledge that such Asset Seller is transferring assets to Buyer which have a value equal to such elected amount as consideration for the assumption by Buyer of such obligations of such Asset Seller.

         

        
          46

          
            


        

        (ii)         At the request of the Buyer, the Asset Sellers shall each, along with Buyer, jointly make an election in the prescribed
          manner and within the prescribed time limits, an election under Section 22 of the Income Tax Act (Canada), and any corresponding provisions of any applicable provincial income Tax legislation.  For the purposes of such elections, Buyer and such Asset Seller shall, acting reasonably, jointly determine the amount that the parties shall designate as the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to the
          Purchased Assets that are accounts receivables in respect of which such elections are made.  For greater certainty, such Asset Seller and Buyer agree
          to prepare and file their respective Tax Returns in a manner consistent with such election.

         

        (iii)        The Asset Sellers and Buyer agree that the non-competition undertakings granted by the Asset Sellers are granted to maintain or preserve the fair market value of the goodwill included with the Purchased Assets acquired by Buyer under this Agreement. 






          The Asset Sellers and Buyer further acknowledge and confirm that no amount of proceeds is received or receivable by the Asset Sellers for granting the
          non-competition undertakings or any other covenant of the Asset Sellers contained in this Agreement.  The Asset
          Sellers and Buyer undertake to make joint elections with respect to such restrictive covenants in prescribed form pursuant to subsection 56.4(7) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any provincial equivalent to apply subsection 56.4(5) of the
          Income Tax Act (Canada) or any provincial equivalent.

         

        (iv)       Buyer, the Asset Sellers
          and their respective Affiliates shall cooperate in good faith to determine whether the election provided for in paragraph 167(1)(b) of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) (the “ETA”) to have subsection 167(1.1) of the ETA apply to the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets is available.  At the request of Buyer, the Asset Sellers shall each, along with Buyer, jointly make such election.  Buyer shall file the election within the time prescribed by subsection 167(1.1) of the ETA. 
          Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Buyer shall, at all times, indemnify and hold harmless the Asset Sellers, their directors, officers, and
          employees against and in respect of any and all amounts assessed by any Taxing Authority as a consequence of its determining, for any reason, that the election contemplated by this Section 7.10(l)(iv) is inapplicable, invalid, or not properly made, subject to the indemnification obligation provided in Section 7.10(i)
          from the Asset Sellers to the Buyer or its Affiliates.

         

        (v)          Buyer (or its assignee that will purchase the Purchased Assets) is or will be as of Closing, registered pursuant to Part IX
          of the ETA.

         

        (m)         With respect the transfer of the Equity Interests in CPI Germany from Garlock






          Germany to Buyer, the following additional provisions shall apply:

         

        
          47

          
            


        

        (i)         Garlock Germany and CPI
          Germany entered into a profit and loss pooling agreement on 22/27 July, 2009 (the “German PLPA”).  According to clause 3.3 of the German PLPA, it can be terminated by either party for cause (aus wichtigem Grund), if Garlock Germany no longer has
          control over CPI Germany.  The Seller Parties shall procure that Garlock Germany will effectively terminate the
          German PLPA on the Closing Date by reference to said clause promptly after the transfer of the equity interests in CPI






          Germany to the Buyer (or an assignee of Buyer) with immediate effect.  The parties shall do everything necessary to ensure that the termination of the German PLPA is recorded in the relevant commercial
          register without undue delay after the Closing Date.

         

        (ii)         Any amount owed pursuant to Section 302 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz – “AktG”), or
          any provision under the German PLPA, by Garlock Germany vis à vis CPI Germany, for the period from January 1,
          2021 until the termination of the German PLPA takes effect (the “PLPA Transitional Period”)
          (such claim, together with any accrued interest thereon, a “PLPA Loss Compensation Claim”) shall be settled by Garlock Germany by way of actual payment in cash to CPI Germany in compliance with German Tax Law.  Any amount owed
          pursuant to Section 301 AktG, or any provision under the German PLPA, by CPI Germany vis à vis Garlock Germany, for the PLPA Transitional Period (such claim, together with any accrued interest thereon, a “PLPA Profit Transfer Claim”) shall be settled by CPI Germany by way of actual payment in
          cash to Garlock Germany in compliance with German Tax Law, and the Buyer shall procure that CPI Germany makes
          such settlement.  In any event, all cash payments are to be made within three (3) Business Days after the Seller Representative and the Buyer have
          been provided with the interim balance sheet to be prepared in accordance with German law as of the date the termination of the German PLPA takes effect.

         

        (iii)        Concurrently (Zug um Zug) with the settlement by Garlock Germany of a PLPA Loss Compensation Claim pursuant to Section 7.10(m)(ii),
          the Buyer shall reimburse Garlock Germany by way of actual payment in cash in an amount equal to the amount of the PLPA Loss Compensation
          Claim settled by Garlock Germany.  Concurrently (Zug um Zug) with the settlement by CPI





          Germany of a PLPA Profit Transfer Claim pursuant to Section 7.10(m)(ii), Garlock
          Germany shall reimburse the Buyer by way of actual payment in cash in an amount equal to the amount of the PLPA Profit Transfer Claim settled by CPI Germany, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any withholding tax on the PLPA Profit Transfer Claim or parts thereof which have been withheld
          on behalf of Garlock Germany, if applicable.

         

        (iv)        Buyer shall indemnify Garlock Germany in case any collateral Garlock Germany is obliged to provide under Section 303 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG)
          results in any payments to be made to creditors of CPI Germany, to the extent that the obligation to provide collateral relates to the claim of a creditor (x) that came into existence or became due after the transfer (Übergang) of the Equity
          Interests in CPI Germany to the Buyer or (y) that came into existence or became due before the transfer of the Equity Interests in CPI Germany to the Buyer and such claim was taken into account in a downward adjustment of the Purchase Price.

         

        
          48

          
            


        

        (v)          The parties agree that the tax group for German corporate income tax and trade tax purposes (ertragsteuerliche Organschaft) (the “German Tax Group”) with Garlock Germany, as the German





          Tax Group parent, and CPI Germany is terminated effective as of December 31, 2020 as a result of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.

         

        (vi)        If the Closing is delayed after December 31, 2021 and upon the Seller
          Representative’s written request to Buyer, the parties agree to reasonably cooperate to provide for the termination of the PLPA and the German Tax Group such that both the PLPA and the German Tax Group remain in effect for the period ending December 31, 2021.

         

        (vii)       Each of the parties agrees to use reasonable best efforts, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties to fulfill applicable VAT






          rules and regulations with regard to the German VAT group of which CPI Germany is a member existing until the Closing
          Date.

         

        (n)         With respect to the transfer of the Equity Interests in CPI France from Coltec






          France to Buyer which is subject always to the delivery of the Notice of Exercise of Put Option, the following additional provisions shall apply:

         

        (i)         The parties agree that CPI France will retroactively leave the French tax
          consolidated group (the “French Tax Group”) with Coltec France, as the common parent, with effect
          as from the beginning of the fiscal year during which the Closing occurs.  For example, if the Closing occurs in December 2021 then CPI France will leave the French Tax Group from January 1, 2021, and will then be taxable on a stand-alone basis on its tax year ending December 31, 2021.

         

        (ii)         In connection with the Closing,






          the parties agree that an exit agreement (the “French Exit Agreement”) will be entered into between CPI





          France and Coltec France, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, that will provide for the cancellation and replacement of the tax consolidated agreement concluded between Coltec France and CPI France on September 27, 2013, and legally effective since January 1st 2013, notwithstanding the fact that the latter will be in any case
          automatically terminated as from the Closing Date.  The French Exit Agreement will provide that:

         

        (A)          no indemnification will be due by CPI France to Coltec France in the case
          of a supplementary income tax burden levied at the level of Coltec France as the head of the French Tax Group in the case of an adjustment of the taxable
          result of CPI France for years in which it was a part of the French Tax Group; and

         

        

        
          49

          
            


        

        (B)          Coltec France will bear all Taxes that are Seller Indemnified Taxes and the French Exit Agreement will be consistent with the principles of Section 7.10(q).

         

        (o)         With respect to the transfer of the Equity Interests in CPI UK from UK Seller to
          Buyer, Buyer shall procure that (except where requested in writing by the Seller Representative) no voluntary action is taken by any Company Entity, Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer after Closing (whether by disclaiming any relief, withdrawing or
          revoking any claim or consent or otherwise) which would or is likely either to prejudice or reduce the availability of any relief surrendered or to be surrendered to a Seller Party or any of their Affiliates or otherwise adversely affect the Tax position of any Seller Party or any of their Affiliates.

         

        (p)        The Seller Parties shall cause all Tax sharing or indemnification agreements (other than agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, the primary purpose of which is not the allocation or sharing of Taxes) between or among the Seller Parties or any of their Affiliates (other than the Company Entities), on the one hand, and the Company Entities, on the other hand, to terminate on or before the Closing






          Date, which (if applicable) may have retroactive effect for Tax purposes as agreed hereunder.

         

        (q)          The Seller Parties shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates from and
          against any and all Losses arising from or related to (a) Taxes for Pre-Closing Tax Periods (i) imposed on any of the
          Company Entities or with respect to the Purchased Assets or (ii) for which any of the Company Entities is liable pursuant to Treasury Regulations
          Section 1.1502-6 or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law, (b) any Taxes of the Seller Parties for any taxable period and (c) any Taxes that relate to the Excluded Assets or Retained Liabilities (any such Taxes,






          “Seller Indemnified Taxes”); provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, Seller Indemnified Taxes shall not include any Transfer Taxes for which Buyer is liable under Section7.10(i).

         

        7.11       Performance
              Bonds and Guarantees.

         

        (a)         Not later than ten (10) days prior to the Closing,






          Seller Representative shall preliminarily advise Buyer, and not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing,






          Seller Representative shall advise Buyer in writing of all performance bonds, surety bonds, bank guarantees, letters of credit and/or corporate guarantees given by the Seller Parties or their Affiliates remaining outstanding on the Closing Date with respect to which Seller Parties or their Affiliates may have any liability after the Closing (each, a “Closing Date Seller Guarantee” and, collectively, the “Closing Date Seller Guarantees”).

         

        (b)          Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to replace or
          backstop any such Closing Date Seller Guarantee as promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing.

         

        
          50

          
            


        

        (c)          With respect to each Closing Date Seller Guarantee that is not replaced or backstopped pursuant to Section 7.11(b) by the Closing Date, Seller Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to, and
          shall cause their respective Affiliates (including EnPro Industries, Inc.) to use their reasonable best efforts to, cause each such Closing Date
          Seller Guarantee to remain outstanding through the date that such Closing Date Seller Guarantee is scheduled to expire in accordance with its terms; provided that Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be substituted in all respects for the applicable Seller Party (or its applicable Affiliate) in respect of all obligations of such Seller Party or such Affiliate under each Closing Date Seller Guarantee, effective as of the first expiration of the term of each such Closing Date Seller Guarantee having automatically renewing terms (it being understood and agreed that upon the expiration of a Closing






          Date Seller Guarantee, no Seller Party or any of its Affiliates shall have any further liabilities or obligations with respect to such Closing Date Seller Guarantee).

         

        (d)          For so long as any Closing Date Seller Guarantees remain outstanding after the Closing Date, (i) Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller Parties and their Affiliates for any
          Losses arising from or relating to such Closing Date Seller Guarantees for the period beginning immediately following the Closing and (ii) Buyer shall not permit any of the Company Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to (A) renew or extend the term of, (B) increase its or their obligations under, (C) transfer to another third party or (D) amend in any manner, any such Closing Date Seller Guarantee.  To the extent that Seller Parties or their Affiliates have performance
          obligations under any Closing Date Seller Guarantee, Buyer shall (x) perform in all respects such obligations on behalf of Seller Parties and
          their Affiliates or (y) otherwise use reasonable best efforts to take such actions as reasonably requested by Seller
          Parties so as to put Seller Parties and their Affiliates in the same position as if Buyer, and not a Seller
          Party or an Affiliate thereof, had performed or were performing such obligations.

         

        7.12        Financing and Financing Cooperation.

         

        (a)         Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be
          done, all things necessary, advisable or proper to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter on or prior to the Closing Date on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter, including to: (i) maintain in effect the Debt Commitment Letter
          and any Definitive Financing Agreements in accordance with their terms until the funding of the Debt Financing to Granite Holdings and/or its Subsidiaries
          on the Closing Date; (ii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions to the funding of the Debt Financing set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter and the Definitive






          Financing Agreements applicable to Buyer or one or more of its Affiliates that are within its control; (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive debt
          financing agreements on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and the Fee






          Letter (including, if necessary, any “flex” provisions) (the “Definitive Financing
              Agreements”); and (iv) subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Financing Conditions, cause the Debt Financing Sources to
          consummate the Debt Financing, and fund the amounts thereunder on the Closing Date.  Buyer shall keep Seller





          Representative reasonably informed on a current basis and in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Debt Financing.  Buyer shall give Seller Representative prompt written notice after the occurrence of any of the following: (A) any material breach or material default by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing of which Buyer
          becomes aware; (B) the receipt by Buyer of any written notice or written communication from any Debt Financing Source with respect to any actual or potential breach, default, termination or
          repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or any definitive agreements related to the Debt Financing of any provisions of the Debt Commitment Letter or such definitive agreements; 
          (C) if for any reason, Buyer at any time believes it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (D) any fact, change, event or circumstance that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or impede the consummation of the Debt







          Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter.  In the event that all conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letters have been satisfied and Buyer is required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Debt Financing Source to fund its respective committed portion of the Debt Financing required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to pay related fees and expenses on the Closing Date.

         

        
          51

          
            


        

        (b)         Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall not agree to or permit any termination, amendment, replacement, supplement or other
          modification of, or waive any of its rights, provisions or remedies under, the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreements without Seller Representative’s prior written
          consent; provided that Buyer may, without Seller Representative’s prior written consent, (i) enter into any amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification to or waiver of any provision of the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreements that would not, and
          would not reasonably be expected to, reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing below an amount, together with any available cash of Buyer and its Subsidiaries,






          required to pay the Acquisition Amounts, or prevent, materially delay or impede the consummation of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter; and (ii) amend, replace, supplement or otherwise modify the
          Debt Commitment Letter to add lenders, lead arrangers, book runners, syndication agents or similar entities that had not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date hereof so long as any such addition would not reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay or
          impede the consummation of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter,
          but only, with respect to the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), to the extent doing so would not (x) impose new or additional
          conditions or expand, amend or modify any existing condition to the receipt and availability of the Debt Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially delay or
          impede the ability of Buyer to consummate the Closing or (y) adversely impact the ability of Granite Holdings
          to enforce its rights against the Debt Financing Sources under the Debt Commitment
          Letter.  Upon any such amendment, replacement, supplement or modification, the term “Debt
          Commitment Letter” and “Definitive Financing Agreement” shall mean the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreement, as applicable, as so
          amended, replaced, supplemented or modified.  Buyer shall promptly deliver to Seller Representative copies of any such amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive






          Financing Agreement.

         

        
          52

          
            


        

        (c)         If all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, or
          any of the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Financing Agreements shall be withdrawn, repudiated, terminated or rescinded for any reason, then Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) arrange and obtain from
          the same or alternative financing sources, alternative financing in an amount sufficient to, when added to available cash of Buyer and its Subsidiaries and the available portion of the Debt Financing, consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement






          and pay the Acquisition Amounts upon terms and conditions not materially less favorable to Buyer and its Affiliates than those in the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive






          Financing Agreements and (ii) obtain one or more new financing commitment letters with respect to such alternative financing (the “New Debt Commitment Letters”).  Buyer shall promptly deliver to the Seller Representative copies of any executed New Debt Commitment Letters.  In the event any alternative financing is obtained in accordance with this Section 7.12(c) (“Alternative Financing”), references in this Agreement





          to the Debt Financing shall also be deemed to refer to such Alternative Financing, and references in this Agreement





          to the Debt Commitment Letter and the Definitive Financing Agreements shall also be deemed to refer to any New Debt Commitment Letters and definitive financing agreements relating to such Alternative Financing, and all
          obligations of Buyer pursuant to this Section 7.12 shall be applicable thereto to the same extent as Buyer’s obligations with respect to the Debt





          Financing.

         

        (d)         Seller Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to, and
          shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause their Subsidiaries and Affiliates (including EnPro Industries, Inc.) and their respective
          Representatives to, provide such cooperation on a timely basis as is reasonably requested by Buyer and the Debt Financing Sources to assist Buyer in obtaining the Debt Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter.  Such
          commercially reasonable cooperation shall include Seller Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates
          (including EnPro Industries, Inc.) using commercially reasonable efforts to take the following actions (in each case, to the extent applicable with respect to the Debt







          Financing):

         

        (i)          making appropriate officers, including officers with appropriate seniority and expertise, available for participation at reasonable times in a reasonable number of
          meetings, lender presentations, due diligence sessions, meetings with prospective lenders and ratings agencies and road shows, in each case in connection with the Debt Financing and only to the
          extent customarily needed for financings of the type contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter;

         

        (ii)          providing reasonable assistance in the preparation of bank information memoranda (including a bank information memorandum that does not include material
          non-public information), rating agency presentations and any similar documents, including the consent to the reasonable and customary use of the Company Entities’ and their Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing (and will, upon request of Buyer, provide Buyer with electronic versions of such logos for such
          use), provided that Buyer shall ensure that such logos will not be used in a manner reasonably likely to harm or disparage the reputation or goodwill of the Company Entities;

         

        
          53

          
            


        

        (iii)        assisting Buyer in its negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any definitive financing documents as may be reasonably requested by Buyer or any Debt Financing Source (it being understood that such documents will not take effect until the Closing), including guarantee, pledge, security and
          collateral documents and providing Buyer with any information reasonably necessary to complete customary closing and perfection certificates as may be required in connection with the Debt Financing
          and other customary definitive financing documents or other customary documents as may be reasonably requested by Buyer;

         

        (iv)       facilitating the preparation, execution and delivery of documents and other items needed to facilitate the creation and perfection of liens securing the Debt Financing (it being understood that such documents will not take effect until the Closing),

          (including providing copies thereof prior to the Closing Date) on or prior to the Closing Date, assisting with the procurement of insurance endorsements
          from the insurance policy underwriters of Company Entities and any of their Subsidiaries on or prior
          to the Closing Date and taking reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to permit Buyer to evaluate Company
          Entities’ and any of their Subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities and contractual arrangements for purposes of establishing guarantee and collateral arrangements;

         

        (v)         as promptly as reasonably practicable (A) furnishing Buyer and the Debt Financing Sources with the Required Information and (B) informing Buyer if to Seller’s Knowledge, there are facts that would likely require the restatement of such financial
          statements for such financial statements to comply with GAAP;

         

        (vi)         providing information required for Buyer to prepare pro forma financial information and projections required to be delivered pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letter (provided that Seller





          Parties and their Subsidiaries shall have no obligation to prepare or provide any pro forma financial statements or projections);

         

        (vii)        cooperating with due diligence and investigation with respect to the Debt Financing;

         

        (viii)      cooperating in satisfying the conditions precedent in the Debt






          Commitment Letter and the definitive debt documents, in each case to the extent that the satisfaction of such conditions requires the cooperation of, or is within the control of, Seller Parties and
          any of their Subsidiaries;

         

        (ix)         assisting Buyer in obtaining environmental assessments, surveys and title insurance to the extent required in connection with the Debt Financing;

        (x)        requesting its independent accountants to provide reasonable and customary assistance and cooperation to Buyer, including requesting their participation in
          accounting diligence sessions and requesting that they agree that Buyer may use their audit reports relating to the Business;

        (xiv)      periodically updating any Required Information provided to Buyer as may be necessary so that such Required Information (i) is Compliant and (ii) meets the applicable requirements set forth in the definition of “Required Information”; and

         

        (xv)       agreeing, notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between Buyer and Seller
          Parties (or their Affiliates) to the contrary, that Buyer may share customary projections with respect to the Company Entities and the Business with the Debt Financing Sources, and that Buyer and such Debt Financing Sources may share such information with other potential Debt Financing Sources in connection with any marketing efforts in connection with the Debt Financing; provided that the recipients of such information and any other information contemplated to be provided by the Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries agree to customary confidentiality agreements, including “click through” confidentiality






          agreements and confidentiality provisions contained in customary bank books and offering memoranda.

         

        
          55

          
            


        

        No obligations of the Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates
          or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents or other Representatives under any certificate, document or instrument delivered pursuant to this Section 7.12(d) (other than with respect to customary authorization
          letters) shall be required to be effective until the Effective Time. Upon reasonable request of the Seller Representative, the Seller Parties and their legal counsel will be given reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon any bank information memorandum or similar documents, any rating agency materials or any other
          materials which are being delivered to any Person not affiliated with Buyer that are prepared in connection with the Debt Financing after the date hereof, that
          include information about the Company Entities or their Subsidiaries.  In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.12 to the
          contrary, in fulfilling its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.12, (1) none of the Seller Parties, their Subsidiaries or its or their
          respective officers, directors, employees and agents or other Representatives shall be required to (A) waive or amend any terms of this Agreement, pay any commitment or other fee, provide any security or
          incur any liability or obligation in connection with the Debt Financing or any other financing, in each case, prior to the Effective Time, (B) take or
          permit the taking of any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without lapse of time, or both) under, the organizational
          documents of any Seller Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or any applicable Law or material Contracts of
          any Seller Party or any of its Subsidiaries, (C) provide any cooperation that would unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of the Seller Parties and their Subsidiaries, (D) adopt resolutions or consents or approve or authorize the execution of or enter into the Debt Financing or the Definitive Financing Agreements that are effective prior to the Effective Time, (E) execute or approve any agreement, other Contract, application, certification or instrument (other than customary authorization letters,
          letters to rating agencies, filings with the SEC, documents in connection with “know your customer”, anti-money laundering and beneficial ownership rules, and other Contracts, applications,
          certifications and instruments customarily executed or approved by sellers and target companies in connection with debt financings that are reasonably acceptable to the Seller Parties) in connection with the Debt Financing (other than execution of such documents by officers of the Seller






          Parties in their capacity as officers of the Company Entities or their Subsidiaries), or (F)
          provide any information or documentation which, in the opinion of the Seller Parties or their legal counsel, would cause the Seller Parties or their Subsidiaries to lose or otherwise impair any attorney client privilege with their legal counsel (provided that the Seller Representative
          shall inform Buyer of the general nature of the information being withheld and, upon Buyer’s request, reasonably cooperate with Buyer to provide such information, in whole or in part, to the extent and in a manner that would not result in any of
          the outcomes described in this clause (F)) and (2) Buyer shall reimburse Seller Parties promptly, upon written request by the Seller Representative, for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries in connection with fulfilling their obligations pursuant to this Section 7.12 (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and fees and expenses of accounting firms).  No counsel for Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Seller Parties and such
          counsel) shall be obligated to deliver any opinion in connection with the Debt Financing and, irrespective of the above, no obligation of Seller Parties
          or any of their Subsidiaries under any agreement, certificate, document or instrument shall be effective until the Effective Time (other than with respect
          to customary authorization letters).  None of the Seller Parties or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action under any certificate, agreement, arrangement, document or instrument (other than with respect to customary authorization letters) that is not contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing or that would be effective prior to the Effective Time. Nothing in this Section 7.12 will require any Representative of a Seller Party or any of its Subsidiaries to deliver any certificate or opinion or take any other action pursuant to
          this Section 7.12 that would reasonably be expected to result in personal liability to such Representative.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.12 to the contrary, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Parties and their Subsidiaries (and their respective Representatives) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, costs or
          expenses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the Debt Financing or any other financing (including the arrangement thereof) and any information used in connection therewith, except in the
          event such loss or damage solely arises out of or results from the willful breach, bad faith or gross negligence by a Seller Party or its Subsidiaries or,
          in each case, their respective Representatives, in fulfilling their obligations pursuant to this Section 7.12.

         

        
          56

          
            


        

        (e)         Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but subject to the applicable terms of this Agreement and satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), in no event
          shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters) by or to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any other financing transaction be a condition to any of Buyer’s obligations
          hereunder.  It shall be deemed a willful breach of Buyer’s obligations hereunder if Buyer fails to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a result of Buyer failing to receive or
          not having such available funds or financing at a time when all conditions to the obligation of Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived.

         

        (f)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Section 7.12 shall require, and in no event shall the commercially reasonable efforts of Buyer be deemed or construed to require, Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to pay any
          material fees in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter after giving effect to any flex provisions therein.

         

        (g)         All nonpublic or other confidential information provided by the Seller Parties or any of their Representatives pursuant
          to this Agreement shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Buyer will be permitted to disclose such
          information to any financing sources or prospective financing sources and other financial institutions and investors that are or may become parties to the Debt Financing and that agree to keep such
          information confidential.

         

        7.13      Debt Facilities.  Seller Parties shall, and shall cause their respective applicable Subsidiaries to, deliver to Buyer at least two
          (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date evidence, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Buyer, that all guarantees in connection with the Parent






          Debt Facilities and all Liens (including, for the avoidance of doubt, liens on intellectual property) relating to the assets and properties of the Business securing the
          obligations under the Parent Debt Facilities shall be released and terminated upon the Closing (the “Required Lien Releases”).

         

        7.14       Intercompany Obligations. 





          Seller Parties will take or cause to be taken such actions and make or cause to be made such payments as may be necessary so that, as of the Effective Time, there will be no Intercompany Obligations between the Company Entities (other than
          the Asset Sellers) on the one hand, and Seller Parties or their Affiliates on the other hand (other than
          pursuant to any agreements executed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby) and no liability to Buyer and the Company Entities with respect thereto.

         

        
          57

          
            


        

        7.15     Title Insurance.  Seller Parties
          will cooperate reasonably with Buyer in connection with obtaining any title insurance (including any non-imputation and other endorsements) that Buyer determines to obtain for the Real Property,
          including by executing customary affidavits required by the title insurer issuing the same.  Any costs associated with title insurance shall be paid by the Buyer.

         

        7.16      Wrong Pockets Payments.  Asset Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, promptly remit to Buyer and/or the Company Entities all monies received by the Asset Sellers or any of their Affiliates following the Closing constituting Purchased Assets.  Payments remitted to Buyer or the Company Entities pursuant to this Section





              7.16 shall be in the form received by the Asset Sellers or applicable Affiliate thereof.  The Company





          Entities shall promptly remit to the Asset Sellers all monies received by the Company Entities following the Closing





          constituting Excluded Assets or other assets of the Asset Sellers or their Subsidiaries other than the Company Entities.  Payments remitted to the Seller Parties pursuant to this Section 7.16
          shall be in the form received by the Company Entities.

         

        7.17       Non-Solicit.  The Seller Parties shall not, and the Seller Parties shall procure that none of the Affiliates of the Seller Parties shall, from the date hereof until
          the date which is two (2) years following the Closing Date, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire any of the employees of any of the Company Entities
          who are employees of the Company Entities (other than the Asset Sellers) as of the Closing Date or Canadian Business Continuing Employees, nor attempt to convince any such person to terminate, by any means, his or her employment with the Company






          Entities; provided that, the non-solicit obligation (but not the no-hire obligation) set forth above should not be deemed to
          be breached in relation to an application made by any such person in response to a general solicitation for employment which is not specifically directed at such persons.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions in this Section 7.17 shall not apply with respect to any employees of the Company Entities (other than the Asset





          Sellers) or the Canadian Business Continuing Employees nine (9) months after any such person’s employment with the Company Entities or their
          Affiliates (after Closing) is terminated.

         

        7.18       Non-Compete.

         

        (a)         In further consideration of the amounts
          to be paid hereunder by Buyer, each Seller Party agrees that, from and after the Closing and continuing for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), such Seller
          Party shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, engage in any Restricted Business in the Restricted Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, shareholder, member, investor, agent, trustee, lender, employee or consultant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained
          herein shall be construed to prevent a Seller Party or any Affiliate of a Seller Party from (i) passively
          investing in the capital stock of any Person that is listed on a national securities exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market so long as such Seller
          Party or Affiliate does not own more than five percent (5%) of the equity of such Person or (ii) acquiring and operating any After-Acquired Business, so long as, within twelve (12) months after the consummation of the acquisition of the After-Acquired Business, (x)
          the Seller Parties or their Affiliates sign a definitive agreement to dispose, and subsequently disposes, of the relevant portion of the business or equity
          securities of the After-Acquired Business that violates this Section 7.18 (provided, that such twelve (12)-month period shall be
          extended by an additional six months if, at the end of such twelve (12)-month period, all regulatory or Governmental Authority approvals for such disposition shall not have been obtained, all
          required notices with Governmental Authorities shall not have been filed or made or all waiting periods imposed by applicable Governmental






          Authorities necessary to consummate such disposition shall not have expired or been terminated) or (y) at the expiration of such twelve (12)-month period, the After-Acquired Business no longer
          violates this Section 7.18.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Seller Parties nor their Affiliates





          shall be required to dispose of any assets or securities of an After-Acquired Business if the business activity thereof that would otherwise violate this Section 7.18 does not account for more than the greater of (x) fifteen percent (15%) of the revenues of the After-Acquired Business or (y) five million dollars
          ($5,000,000) in revenues (in each case based on its latest annual financial statements prior to the consummation of such acquisition).  For the avoidance of doubt, if following the date
          hereof, EnPro Industries, Inc. is acquired through a merger, tender offer, exchange offer, share exchange, consolidation or similar transaction by any third party Person (the “EnPro Acquirer”), the EnPro Acquirer and its Subsidiaries





          (excluding EnPro Industries, Inc. and its Subsidiaries) shall not be subject to, or restricted by, this Section 7.18.

         

        
          58

          
            


        

        (b)         Each Seller Party acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 7.18 are a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and that Buyer and its Affiliates would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in this Agreement as specifically negotiated by the parties if such Seller Party breaches any of the provisions of this Section 7.18.  Each Seller Party further
          acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 7.18 (including the territorial, time and scope limitations with respect thereto) are reasonable and
          are required to protect Buyer’s substantial investment hereunder and are for the protection of Buyer’s legitimate business interests (including its interest in customer and supplier relationships), goodwill and Trade Secrets of the Business, and that such limitations will not impose any undue burden upon such Seller Party.  In the event that any territorial, time or
          scope limitation set forth in this Section 7.18 is deemed to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, Buyer and Seller Parties hereby agree to the reduction of any or all of such territorial, time or scope limitations to such an area, period or scope as such court shall deem reasonable or enforceable under the
          circumstances.  If such partial enforcement is not possible in such jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed severed solely as to such jurisdiction, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement
          shall remain in full force and effect.

         

        (c)          Each Seller Party further acknowledges and agrees that irreparable injury may result to Buyer and its Affiliates if such Seller Party breaches any of the terms of this Section 7.18, and that in the
          event of such Seller Party’s actual or threatened breach of any of the provisions contained in this Section 7.18, Buyer may have no
          adequate remedy at Law. Each Seller Party accordingly agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened breach by such Seller Party of this Section 7.18, Buyer shall be entitled to seek (i) such injunctive and other equitable relief as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) the right
          and remedy to require such Seller Party to account for and pay over to Buyer any profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by such Seller Party or its Affiliates or representatives as the result of any transactions or conduct constituting a breach of any of the provisions contained in this
          Section 7.18.  Nothing contained herein shall be construed as prohibiting or limiting Buyer from pursuing any other remedies available to it for such breach or threatened breach,
          including the recovery of any damages that it is able to prove.

         

        
          59

          
            


        

        7.19       Personal Information.

         

        (a)         The Asset Sellers and Buyer each acknowledge that they are responsible
          for complying with all Laws applicable to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information received from the other, or from any Company
          Entity or from any other Seller Party or its Affiliates, pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or the
          consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Disclosed Personal Information”).

         

        (b)        Buyer shall not collect, use, or disclose the Disclosed Personal Information for any purposes other than to
          determine if it shall proceed with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the performance of this Agreement, or the consummation of the transactions
          contemplated by this Agreement.

         

        (c)          Buyer shall protect all Disclosed Personal Information with security safeguards appropriate to the
          sensitivity of the information.

         

        (d)         If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not proceed, Buyer shall return to the Asset Sellers, or at the Asset Sellers’ request, destroy in a secure manner, the Disclosed Personal
          Information (and any copies thereof) within a reasonable period of time.

         

        (e)         Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer shall not collect, use or
          disclose the Disclosed Personal Information for any purpose other than carrying on the Business (with use or disclosure of the Disclosed






          Personal Information being restricted to those purposes for which such information was initially collected or for which additional consent was or is obtained) or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable Laws.  Buyer shall protect the
          confidentiality of all Disclosed Personal Information in a manner consistent with security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information and shall give effect to any
          withdrawal of consent with respect to the Disclosed Personal Information.

         

        (f)        Where necessary for conducting the Business, the Asset Sellers and Buyer shall coordinate providing appropriate notice
          to individuals of the disclosure of Disclosed Personal Information within a reasonable time after the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
          are completed.

         

        7.20      Dissolution.  The Seller Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the dissolution of the entities set forth on Schedule 7.20 to the reasonable satisfaction
          of Buyer.

         

        
          60

          
            


        

        7.21       Assignment and Assumption of Lease.  To the extent required or requested by any landlord of the Asset Sellers, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to agree to the form of an Assignment and Assumption of Lease agreement and to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption of Lease agreement as of the Closing (or reasonably promptly thereafter).

         

        7.22      Supply Agreement.  Following the date hereof and prior to Closing, the parties shall use
          commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of a supply agreement between the Business and Technetics Group, LLC.

         

        7.23      Insurance.  The Seller Parties
          shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries (including the Company Entities) to, (i) use commercially reasonable efforts in the ordinary course of business
          to maintain the Insurance Policies in full force and effect until the Closing, and (ii) prior to the Closing,
          report to the applicable third-party insurance provider under each such applicable Insurance Policy events, acts, errors, accidents, omissions, incidents, injuries or other forms of occurrences to
          the extent relating to the Company Entities, any Purchased Assets or the properties, assets, operations, employees, officers or directors of the Company
          Entities or the Business that, in each case, occur prior to the Closing and are potentially covered by an occurrence-based Insurance Policy that the Seller Parties or any of their Subsidiaries become aware of prior to the Closing in accordance with the Seller Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ standard risk management practices and applicable Insurance Policy
          requirements in the ordinary course of business.

          the Closing Date (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such date), except where the failure of such representations and warranties to be so true and correct
          would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Buyer and (ii) the Fundamental Representations of Buyer
          set forth in Article VI shall be true and correct in all respects (other than de minimis inaccuracies).

          or (ii) the Austrian Cartel Court or the Austrian Supreme Cartel Court having terminated the in-depth investigation, or having issued an
          unappealable decision declaring that the concentration is not being prohibited, or having issued an unappealable decision dismissing any applications for an in-depth investigation, all on terms reasonably acceptable to the parties (provided, that
          no party shall be entitled to claim that this condition is not satisfied if such party is not in compliance with Section 7.6 hereto).

         

        (d)          Receipt from the Commission for Protection of Competition in Serbia of (i) an unconditional merger
          clearance decision or (ii) a conditional merger clearance the terms of which are reasonably satisfactory to the parties (provided, that no party shall be entitled to claim that this condition is not satisfied if such party is not in compliance
          with Section 7.6 hereto).  For the avoidance of doubt, this requirement shall also be fulfilled if the Commission for Protection of Competition in Serbia does not issue a decision within the
          deadlines set by Serbian law.

          of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

         

        8.3         Frustration





              of Closing Conditions.  No party hereto may rely on the failure of any condition set forth in Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s failure to comply with
          its obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as required by, and subject to, Section 7.6.

        TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT

         

        9.1          Termination. 





          Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

         

        (a)          by the mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller Representative;

         

        (b)         by Buyer or Seller Representative, upon written notice to the other, if the
          transactions contemplated by this Agreement have not been consummated on or prior to June 12, 2022, or such later date, if any, as Buyer and Seller
          Representative agree upon in writing (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(b) is not available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in or causes the failure of the
          transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated by the Termination Date;

         

        (c)          by Buyer or Seller Representative, upon written notice to the other, if a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction and residing in a jurisdiction in which the Company Entities do business has issued an Order or any other action permanently enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,






          and such Order has become final and non-appealable; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) is not available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in or causes such Order or other action or such party is not in compliance with its obligations under Section 7.6;

         

        (d)          by Seller Representative, if (i) Buyer has breached or failed to perform any of its covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement






          to be complied with by Buyer, such that the closing condition set forth in Section 8.1(b) would not be
          satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement such
          that the closing condition set forth in Section 8.1(a) would not be satisfied, and in the case of both
          (i) and (ii) above, such breach or failure to perform is not cured within
          thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice thereof or is incapable of being cured by Buyer by the Termination Date; or

         

        (e)         by Buyer, if (i) the Seller Parties have breached or failed to perform any of their covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement






          to be complied with by them such that the closing condition set forth in Section 8.2(b) would not be
          satisfied or (ii) there exists a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller Parties contained in this
          Agreement such that the closing condition set forth in Section 8.2(a)
          would not be satisfied, and in the case of both (i) and (ii) above, such
          breach or failure to perform is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice thereof or is incapable of being cured by the Seller Parties by the Termination Date.

        9.2        Effect





              of Termination.  In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1 by either Buyer or Seller Representative, this Agreement will become void and have no effect,
          without any liability or obligation on the part of Buyer or the Seller Parties other than the provisions of Section 7.2(b), Section 7.2(c), Section 7.3, this Section 9.2, and Article XI,
          which will survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that
          nothing herein will relieve any party from any liability for any pre-termination willful breach by such party of its covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

         

        ARTICLE X

        REMEDIES

         

        10.1       Survival.

         

        (a)         The representations and warranties of the parties contained in this Agreement or any schedule, instrument or other
          document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, shall not survive the Closing Date and shall terminate effective as of the Closing Date, such that no claim for breach of any such representation or warranty, detrimental reliance or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort or at law or in equity) may be brought with
          respect to such representations and warranties after the Closing Date (other than for Fraud).

         

        (b)         The covenants of the parties contained in this Agreement or any schedule, instrument or other document delivered
          pursuant to this Agreement to the extent contemplating or requiring performance by such party prior to the Effective Time, shall not survive the Closing Date and shall terminate effective as of the Closing Date, such that no claim for breach of any such covenant prior to Closing, detrimental reliance or other right or remedy (whether in contract, in tort or at law or in equity) may be brought with respect to such covenants after the Closing






          Date (other than for Fraud).

         

        (c)         All other covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement (including the
          Schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement and the certificates delivered pursuant to this Agreement) that
          contemplate performance thereof following the Closing (the “Post-Closing Covenants”) will
          survive the Closing in accordance with their respective terms (such applicable date of expiration, the “Covenant





              Expiration Date”).

         

        (d)         Any claim by a party hereto pending on the Covenant Expiration Date, as applicable, for which notice has been
          given in accordance with Section 11.7 on or before the Covenant Expiration Date may continue to be asserted against until finally
          resolved.  Any claim brought by a party hereunder after the Covenant Expiration Date will be void and invalid.

         

        
          65

          
            


        

        10.2       Exclusive Remedy.

         

        (a)        The sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company Entities from
          and after the Closing Date) and their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, members, managers, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors or permitted assigns (collectively, the “Buyer Parties”) for any claim (made before, at, or after the Closing Date) related to, based upon, or in connection with a breach of any
          representation or warranty by the Seller Parties contained in this Agreement or any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be to make a claim against the R&W Policy, and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Seller Parties and their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, members, managers, agents, attorneys,
          representatives, successors or permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Party Persons”) shall not have any direct or indirect Losses of any kind or nature whatsoever under this Agreement or any schedule, instrument or other document delivered pursuant to this Agreement related to, based upon, or in connection with a breach of a representation or warranty (other than for Fraud).  The parties agree that, from and after the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedies of the parties hereto for any Losses based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement (including the Schedules and exhibits attached hereto and the certificates delivered pursuant hereto) or the transactions contemplated hereby (other
          than claims of, or causes of action arising from, Fraud) are the parties’ contractual rights under this Agreement with
          respect to Post-Closing Covenants and the rights of Buyer under the R&W Policy (other than for Fraud).  Claims of the parties’ arising from Fraud, with respect to a breach of Post-Closing Covenants and the rights
          of Buyer under the R&W Policy are referred to herein as the “Surviving






              Rights.”

         

        (b)          Each of the Buyer Parties acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent
          permitted under applicable Law, except with respect to the Surviving Rights, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against any of the Seller Parties or any of its Affiliates relating to the operation of the Company Entities, the Purchased
          Assets, or the Business or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, any schedule, instrument or other document delivered in connection with this Agreement,






          and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, whether arising under, or based upon, any federal, state, local or foreign Law (including common law, and including with respect to conduct which is negligent, grossly negligent, willful,
          intentional, with or without malice, or a breach of any duty, Law or rule), or otherwise (including any right, whether arising at law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages, or any other recourse or remedy,
          including as may arise under common law), whether known or unknown, whether fixed or contingent, whether concealed or hidden, whether disclosed or undisclosed, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, whether
          anticipated or unanticipated, whether suspected or unsuspected, are hereby irrevocably waived.

         

        10.3       R&W Policy.

         

        (a)         Buyer shall cause the R&W Policy to expressly exclude rights of subrogation
          against the Seller Parties, other than rights of subrogation against the Seller Parties with respect to claims of, or causes of action arising from, Fraud.  Buyer will not permit the R&W Policy to be terminated,
          nor to be amended or modified in a manner adverse to the Seller Parties, nor will Buyer waive or permit to be waived any right under the R&W Policy in a manner adverse to the Seller Parties.

         

        (b)          Buyer shall not be entitled to recover against the Seller Parties for any Loss






          arising solely as a result of any non-issuance, termination, expiration, amendment and/or modification of, or the denial of any claim by the insurer for any reason or no reason under, the R&W Policy.  All premiums and other costs associated with the R&W Policy will be paid by Buyer.

        ARTICLE XI

        MISCELLANEOUS AND GENERAL

         

        11.1       Expenses. 





          Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all costs and expenses (including all legal, accounting, broker, finder or investment banker fees) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are to be paid, in the case of the Seller Parties or, to the extent incurred prior to Closing, the Company Entities (including all Selling Expenses), by the Seller Parties, and in the case of Buyer, by Buyer.

         

        11.2       Seller Representative.

         

        (a)          Each Seller Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Seller






          Representative as such Seller Party’s agent and attorney-in-fact.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller Representative has
          full power and authority, on behalf of each Seller Party and its successors and assigns, to (i) interpret the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the
          documents to be executed and delivered on behalf of the Seller Parties in connection herewith, (ii) execute and deliver and receive deliveries of all agreements,






          certificates, statements, notices, approvals, extensions, waivers, undertakings, amendments and other documents required or permitted to be given in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) receive service of process in connection with any claims under this Agreement, (iv) agree to, negotiate and enter into settlements and
          compromises of, assume the defense of claims, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate
          in the judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing, (v) give and receive notices and communications, (vi) take all actions






          necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Representative on behalf of the Seller Parties in connection with this Agreement, (vii) make any determinations and settle any matters in connection with the adjustments to the Purchase Price contemplated herein, and (viii)

          Party hereunder or (B) any costs, fees, expenses and other liabilities incurred by the Seller Representative (in its capacity as such) in connection with this Agreement or its rights or obligations hereunder.

         

        (b)        Such agency may be changed by the Seller Representative from time to time upon not less than five (5) days
          prior written notice to Buyer.  The Seller Representative, or any successor hereafter appointed, may resign at any time by written notice to Buyer.  A successor Seller Representative will be named by a majority vote of the Seller Parties.  All power, authority, rights and privileges conferred in this Agreement to the Seller Representative will apply to any successor Seller Representative.

         

        

        
          67

          
            


        

        (c)         The Seller Representative will not be liable for any act done or omitted under
          this Agreement or any agreements or documents executed and delivered in connection herewith as Seller
          Representative while acting in good faith, and any act taken or omitted to be taken pursuant to the advice of counsel will be conclusive evidence of such good faith.  Buyer agrees that it will not look to the assets of the Seller Representative, acting in such capacity, for the satisfaction of any obligations to be performed by the Company Entities (pre-Closing) or the Seller Parties.  In performing any of its duties under this Agreement or any agreements or documents executed and delivered in connection herewith, the Seller Representative will not be liable to the Seller Parties for any Losses that such Person may incur as a result of any act, or failure to act, by the Seller Representative under this Agreement or any agreements or documents executed and delivered in
          connection herewith, and the Seller Representative will be indemnified and held harmless by the Seller Parties for all Losses, except to the extent that the actions or omissions of the Seller Representative constituted gross
          negligence or willful misconduct.  The limitation of liability provisions of this Section 11.2(c) will survive the termination of this Agreement






          and the resignation of the Seller Representative.

         

        11.3       Successors





              and Assigns.  This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, but is not assignable by any party
          (except for Buyer as provided in the following sentence) without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto.  Buyer may assign any or all of its rights or obligations under this Agreement
          without the consent of the other parties hereto to (a) one or more of its Affiliates or (b) the Debt Financing Sources as collateral in connection
          with the Debt Financing and any such Debt Financing Sources may exercise all rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder in connection with the
          enforcement of any security or exercise of any remedies to the extent permitted under the Debt Financing documentation; provided, however, that no such assignment shall (i) relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder or (ii) materially impede or delay the consummation of the transactions
          contemplated by this Agreement.

         

        11.4       No Recourse Against Non-Parties.  This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon or arising out of this
          Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only
          with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party.  Neither the Buyer Related Parties nor the Seller
          Related Parties shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of an entity party against its owners or Affiliates)
          for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim or Action based on, in respect of or by reason of the transactions
          contemplated hereby.  The Seller Party Persons waive and release all such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Buyer Related
          Party and the Buyer and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, partners, members, managers, agents, attorneys, representatives, successors or permitted assigns waive
          and release all such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such Seller Related Party.  The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 11.4 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not have entered into this Agreement.  The Buyer






          Related Parties and Seller Related Parties are expressly intended as third-party beneficiaries of this provision of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding
          the foregoing, nothing in this Section 11.4 shall in any way limit or modify the right and obligations of any Debt Financing
          Source’s obligations to Buyer under the Debt Commitment Letter.

          11.5       Third Party Beneficiaries.  Except as set forth in Section 7.5, each party hereto intends that this Agreement does not benefit or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf
            of any Person other than the parties hereto; provided that each Debt Financing Source
            shall be a third-party beneficiary of Section 11.4, Section 11.10, Section





                11.11, Section 11.12, Section 11.14, Section 11.19
            and this Section 11.5.

           

          11.6      Further





                Assurances.  The parties shall execute such further instruments and take such further actions as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.  Each party hereto shall cooperate with the other parties, to the extent reasonably requested by such other parties, to enforce rights and obligations herein provided.

          11.11    Governing Law.  This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether in
            contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement
            (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or

            wholly performed within such State, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any right

            the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement and the other agreements or documents executed and delivered in connection herewith or any dispute or controversy related to the transactions contemplated hereby, that they are not subject
            thereto or that such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such courts or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by
            such courts or that their property is exempt or immune from execution, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is improper.

          11.13     Enforcement





                of Agreement.  The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of
            this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent
            breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled hereunder, at law or in equity.

           

          11.14   Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR
            THE DEBT FINANCING IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY 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 OR THE DEBT FINANCING OR THE TRANSACTIONS

          11.15     Severability. 





            Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without
            rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction.  If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision will be interpreted to be only so
            broad as is enforceable.

           

          11.16     Construction. 





            The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement.  If any ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the
            provisions of this Agreement.  The words “include,” “includes” or “including” (or any other tense or variation of the word “include”) in this Agreement
            shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” When reference is made in this Agreement to an Annex, Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule,






            such reference shall be to an Annex, Article, Section, Exhibit or Schedule of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  The words “hereof,” “herein” and
            “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as to the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as
            well as the feminine and neuter genders of such terms.

           

          11.17     Counterparts. 





            This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including counterparts transmitted in .pdf or similar format or any electronic signature complying with the ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com), each of which will be deemed an original but all of which will constitute but one instrument.

          11.18     Representation





                of Seller Parties and their Affiliates.  Buyer agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of the Buyer Parties, that, following the Closing, Robinson, Bradshaw & Hinson, P.A. (“RBH”), Bird & Bird LLP (“B&B”), Perkins Coie, LLP (“PC”), Troutman Pepper LLP (“TP”) and Fasken, Martineau
            DuMoulin LLP (“FMD”, and, together with RBH, B&B,





            PC and TP, “Seller Counsel”) may serve as counsel to Seller Parties and their Affiliates in connection with any matters related to this Agreement and the transactions
            contemplated hereby, including any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement





            notwithstanding any representation by Seller Counsel prior to the Closing of the Company Entities.  Buyer and
            the Company Entities hereby (a) waive any claim they have or may have that Seller Counsel has a conflict of interest or
            is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (b) agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Closing between Buyer or the Company Entities and the Seller Parties or any of their Affiliates, Seller





            Counsel may represent the Seller Parties or any of their Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s)





            may be directly adverse to Buyer or the Company Entities and even though Seller Counsel may have represented the Company Entities in a matter substantially related to such dispute.  Buyer represents that Buyer’s own attorney has explained and helped Buyer evaluate the implications and risks of waiving the
            right to assert a future conflict against Seller Counsel, and Buyer’s consent with respect to this waiver is fully informed.  Buyer and the Company
            Entities also further agree that, as to all communications among Seller Counsel and the Company Entities and Seller





            Parties or any of Seller Parties’ Affiliates and representatives, that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to the Seller Parties and may be controlled by the Seller Parties and will not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or the Company Entities.  In addition, all of the client files and records in the possession
            of Seller Counsel related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby will continue to be property of (and be controlled by) the Seller Parties, and the Company Entities shall not retain any copies of such records or have any access to them.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
            event that a dispute arises between Buyer or the Company Entities and a third party other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the Company Entities may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Seller Counsel to such third party; provided, however, that the Company Entities may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller Representative.

           

          11.19     Waiver of Claims Against Debt Financing Sources.  None of the Debt Financing Sources
            will have any liability to the Seller Parties or their Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement,
            the Debt Financing or otherwise, whether at law, or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and neither any Seller Party nor any of its Affiliates will have any rights or claims against any of the Debt Financing Sources hereunder or thereunder.

           

          11.20     Buyer Guarantee.

           

          (a)        Subject to the limitations on the Buyer’s liability set forth in this Agreement,






            in each case, subject to extension for any then-pending claims, Granite Holdings hereby guarantees irrevocably, unconditionally and as a primary obligation, for the benefit of Seller Parties, the prompt and full discharge of all of the Seller Parties’ payment obligations under this Agreement,






            including under Section 2.4, Section 2.5, and Section 7.5 
            (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  The obligations of Granite Holdings under this Section 11.20 shall be absolute and unconditional, present and continuing.  If the Buyer fails to perform the Guaranteed Obligations,
            then Granite Holdings, upon written request of Seller Representative, shall, or shall cause the Buyer to, perform such Guaranteed Obligations promptly following receipt of such written request.  Granite Holdings shall maintain sufficient assets or otherwise make
            adequate provision to satisfy the obligations and liabilities of the Buyer under this Section 11.20.

           

          (b)         Granite Holdings agrees that the guarantee in this Section 11.20
            is a primary guarantee of performance and not just of collection.  Granite Holdings hereby waives (i) notice of acceptance of the guarantee in this Section





                11.20, (ii) presentment and demand of the Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) any right to require that any action be brought against the Buyer prior to any action against Granite Holdings pursuant to the guarantee in this Section 11.20.  To the extent that the Buyer is relieved from all or any portion of
            its obligations under this Agreement, including under Section 2.4, Section 2.5,
            and Section 7.5, Granite Holdings shall be similarly relieved, to such extent, from its obligations and liabilities pursuant to this Section 11.20.  The provisions of this Section 11.20 are subject to Granite
            Holdings’ right to assert any defense that could be asserted by the Buyer under this Agreement with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

              TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT

               

              This Transition Services Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of [•], 2021 (the “Effective Date”), is between Granite US Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), and EnPro Holdings, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (“EnPro Holdings”).

               

              Background Statement

               

              EnPro Holdings and Buyer are parties
                to that certain Equity and Asset Purchase Agreement (as amended, modified, supplemented or waived from time to time, the “Purchase
                  Agreement”) dated as of October 12, 2021 by and between EnPro Holdings, Compressor Products Holdings Limited (UK), EnPro Hong Kong Holdings Company Limited, Garlock GmbH, Coltec Industries France SAS, Compressor Products International
                Canada, Inc. and Garlock of Canada LTD (each a “Seller Party” and collectively the “Seller Parties”), Buyer and Granite Holdings II B.V., as
                Buyer Guarantor, pursuant to which the Seller Parties will sell, and Buyer will purchase, the Equity Interests
                and the Purchased Assets, as more particularly described in the Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.

               

              In connection with the Transaction, Buyer desires that EnPro Holdings and its Affiliates provide, or cause to be provided, certain
                    transition services to Buyer and its Affiliates on an interim basis,
                    and EnPro Holdings desires that Buyer and its Affiliates provide, or cause to be provided, certain transition services back to the Seller Parties on an interim basis. Each party is willing to perform such transition services, as set forth herein. A party or its Affiliates providing Services, or causing Services to be provided, hereunder shall be the “Service Provider” and a party or its Affiliates receiving Services hereunder shall be the “Service Recipient”.

               

              Statement of Agreement

               

              The parties agree as follows:

               

              1.           Transition Services.

               
               

               
              (a)         Services.  Subject to the provisions of Section 2 below, during the Transition Period (as hereinafter defined), each Service Provider shall provide to each Service Recipient the services set forth on the schedules hereto,
                as amended from time to time in accordance with this Section 1(a) (the “Services”).






                The initial Services to be provided by EnPro Holdings and its Affiliates are set forth on Schedule A (the “Seller Services”) and the initial Services to be provided by Buyer and its Affiliates are set forth on Schedule B (the “Buyer Services”). For a period not to exceed three (3) months after the Effective Date, if either of the parties hereto reasonably determine that a service or services were inadvertently omitted from the list of services on such schedules, and such omitted service or services was provided to such party or its Affiliates by the other party or its Affiliates at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the Closing Date, the parties shall negotiate in good
                faith the terms, costs (which shall be at a cost equal to not more than 10% of the cost to such Service Provider of providing such service on a historical basis, as calculated in accordance
                with the historical cost allocation methodology used by such party to determine the cost of comparable services hereunder) and conditions upon which such services will be provided, as well as the scope of any such services and such services
                shall be added to the applicable schedule, it being understood and agreed that the terms and conditions of such additional services shall be substantially similar to the terms and conditions otherwise set forth in this Agreement; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that any such additional services shall be subject to the standards set forth in Section 1(b); provided,
                further, that the Service Provider shall not unreasonably condition, withhold or delay its agreement to the addition of such additional services on reasonable terms consistent with this
                Agreement as long as such additional service will not put an undue burden on the business of the Service Provider at the time of such request; provided, that in no event shall Service Provider be
                obligated to provide additional Services hereunder.  Any additional services so provided shall constitute Services under this Agreement and be subject in all
                respect to the provisions of this Agreement as if fully set forth on the schedules hereto as of the date hereof.

               
              

                 

              
                D-2

                
                  


              

              (b)        Standard of Performance.  Unless
                  otherwise specifically agreed to in writing by EnPro Holdings and Buyer, (i) each Service Provider shall
                  provide, or cause each of its Affiliates providing Services to provide, each of the Services to the applicable
                  Service Recipient with a degree of care, skill and diligence consistent with the care, skill and diligence such Person exercises in the conduct of its
                  own activities (but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care), in good faith and in accordance with applicable Laws, and (ii) the Services to be provided
                  by EnPro Holdings and its Affiliates that are equivalent to those provided to the Business prior to the Closing shall be, in all material respects, consistent in scope, quality, timeliness, and nature with those provided to, or provided on behalf of, the Business
                  during the twelve (12) months prior to the Effective Date (without taking into account any reductions in priority effected since the date discussions commenced regarding the Transaction without a reasonable business and/or operational purpose) and otherwise (x) in a commercially reasonable manner and (y) on a priority basis that is not lower than with respect to any
                  similar services that the Service Provider provides to itself or any of its Affiliates. Subject to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding
                  sentence, each Service shall be provided on a schedule as reasonably agreed by the parties. Service Provider shall devote such time and resources as
                  are reasonably necessary to ensure the provision of such Services to the Service Recipient in a manner that is consistent with standards set forth
                  in this Section 1(b).

               
               

               
              (c)         Modifications to Services.  Nothing herein shall prohibit Service Provider from making such changes as it deems necessary in its sole discretion (including upgrading, downgrading, or changing technology,
                  software or information systems used by it in connection with this Agreement) and applying such changes, to the extent applicable, to the Services; provided, however, that such changes shall not materially and adversely affect the nature,
                  quality, timeliness and standard of care with respect to the Services hereunder; provided, further, that Service Provider shall provide Service Recipient with as much advance written notice of any such changes or modifications as is
                  practicable under the circumstances (and in any event at least thirty (30) days prior notice of such change or modification).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Service Provider shall have no obligation to provide
                  a Service to the extent that any changes are made to the Business that materially increase Service Provider’s costs or materially and adversely change Service Provider’s burden with respect to the provision of such Services, or that make
                  the provision of such Services commercially impracticable; provided, that an increase in the cost of providing any Service (not caused by a change in the Business or burdens of providing the Services as described in this sentence) in and
                  of itself shall not be sufficient to eliminate Service Provider’s obligations to provide such Service.  Service Provider shall have no obligation to provide, or to cause to be provided, Services to any Person other than the Service
                  Recipient.

               

              
                D-3

                
                  


              

              (d)         Personnel.  The Services shall be performed by the personnel of Service Provider or its Affiliates. Service Provider and its Affiliates shall use appropriately skilled and experienced persons in sufficient numbers, consistent with past practices of
                  Service Provider or such Affiliates, as applicable, to complete the performance of the applicable Services






                  in accordance with the terms hereof. In addition, Service Provider may cause any Service it is required to provide hereunder to be provided by a
                  third party (a “Third Party Service Provider”); provided, that to the extent such Service was not provided to Service Recipient and its Affiliates by a Third Party Service Provider as of immediately prior to the Effective







                  Date, Service Provider shall require written consent of Service Recipient prior to outsourcing such Service







                  to a Third Party Service Provider, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that Service Provider shall use good faith efforts to answer
                  any questions of Service Recipient related to a new Third Party Service Provider (and the terms on which such Third Party Service Provider is engaged) and attempt in good faith to address any reasonable concerns raised by Service
                  Recipient related thereto. Service Provider shall not be responsible for the performance of any Services provided by a Third Party Service Provider hereunder but shall assign and pass through to Service Recipient all warranties,
                  obligations and duties of such Third Party Service Provider related to any Services provided by such Third Party Service Provider, or to the extent such warranties, obligations and duties cannot be transferred, assigned or passed through,
                  Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise and enforce any rights against such Third Party Service Provider related to such Services for the benefit of Service Recipient (provided, that nothing herein shall
                  require Service Provider to commence any Action against a Third Party Service Provider).  Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, unless expressly agreed on the Schedules hereto, any
                  agreement entered into between Service Provider and Third Party Service Provider shall not impose any obligations on Service Recipient beyond the scope of this Agreement or more onerous to Service Recipient than the obligations under this Agreement. Any (i) change in a Third Party Service Provider by Service Provider or (ii)
                  amendment or modification to any services provided by a Third Party Service Provider that would materially and adversely affect the Services provided to Service Recipient hereunder, in each case, shall also require prior consent of Service Recipient, in the same manner as provided under this Section 1.1(d).

               
               

               
              (e)         Impracticability. Service







                Provider shall not be required to provide any Service to the extent the performance of such Service becomes impracticable as a result of a cause or causes
                outside the reasonable control of Service Provider or to the extent the provision of such Service would require Service Provider to violate any applicable Laws or, with respect to any additional Service added after the date hereof, the terms of any Contract. Service Provider shall promptly notify Service Recipient upon learning of such a cause or causes and, in such case, the parties shall work
                together in good faith (including, on the part of the Service Provider, using commercially reasonable efforts) to remedy any such problems. Service






                Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume its performance of a Service so suspended with the least possible delay as soon as reasonably practicable.

               
               

              
                D-4

                
                  


              

              (f)         Access.  Service Recipient shall make available on a timely basis to Service Provider all information and materials
                    reasonably requested by Service Provider that are necessary or convenient to enable it to provide the Services. Service Recipient shall permit Service Provider and its employees and agents access, during regular business hours upon reasonable prior
                    notice, to Service Recipient’s premises and such data, records and personnel as Service Provider may reasonably request for the purposes
                    of providing the Services; provided that such access does not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Service Recipient or
                    require the Service Recipient to incur any out-of-pocket expense.

               
               

               
              (g)         Cooperation.  In the event (i) there
                  is nonperformance of any Service as a result of a Force Majeure Event or an event described in Section 1(e) above, (ii) Service Provider cannot obtain from a third party a license or consent necessary for the provision of a Service, or (iii) the provision of an IT Service is materially affected by an unexpected information technology risk that (x) causes Service Provider’s IT systems or applications to shut down or malfunction or (y) causes Service Provider, exercising reasonable professional
                  judgment and acting in good faith, to shut down its IT systems or applications to prevent serious damage to such systems and applications, the parties shall cooperate with each other in good faith to achieve a reasonable arrangement in
                  order to permit Service Recipient to continue to receive the affected Service. All reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs for any such
                  alternative arrangement shall be borne by Service Recipient; provided, that in no event shall Service Recipient be responsible for any
                  mark-up of any kind imposed by Service Provider; or charges for overhead, administrative costs or otherwise that are in excess of the Charges provided for the Service prior to instituting
                  such alternative arrangement.

               
               

               
              (h)         Services Charges. 




                With respect to the Services set forth on the schedules hereto, the charges for each Service (the “Charges”) shall be set forth on the schedules hereto. Service Provider shall be responsible for the costs and
                expenses that it incurs in connection with the Services to be provided by Service Provider or any of its Affiliates,




                as applicable, hereunder; provided, that Service Provider shall be entitled to reimbursement of any reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not
                include any mark-up, administrative costs or overhead expenses such as salaries, rent and other general or administrative overhead expenses or fee of any kind imposed by Service Provider)
                incurred by Service Provider or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, directly resulting or arising from the provision of its Services to Service Recipient and its Affiliates (including the Company




                Entities) as long as such costs and expenses are (i) consistent in size, scope and type as those incurred in connection with such Service(s) during the twelve (12)-month period prior to the date
                hereof (without taking into account any increase in such costs and expenses effected since the date discussions commenced regarding the Transaction without a reasonable business and/or operational
                purpose) or (ii) otherwise approved by Service Recipient in writing (including via e-mail) in advance. Each Service Recipient shall pay the
                fees set forth on the schedules hereto with respect to the Services to be received by such party. In addition, to the extent that the fees charged by a Third Party Service Provider who provides such
                Services as of the Closing Date are increased by such Third Party Service Provider in the ordinary course during the Transition Term, Service Provider shall be entitled to pass through to Service Recipient and Service Recipient shall pay
                such cost increases (but not any additional mark-up on such cost increases). Any sales, service, value-added, use, excise, consumption and similar taxes, duties, tariffs, fees, assessments or levies (“Indirect Taxes”)  imposed on the
                performance or delivery of the Services shall be the responsibility of Service Recipient; provided, that the Service Recipient will not be
                responsible for any Indirect Taxes solely attributable to Service Provider’s failure to comply with any applicable certification, identification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement, in each case, required to be
                satisfied by Service Provider under applicable Law. The parties shall cause the relevant Service Providers and Service Recipients to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) minimize the amount of Indirect Taxes by Service Recipient
                pursuant to this Section 1(h), (ii) claim (1) the benefit of any exemptions or reductions in applicable rates and (2) any available refunds or credits of Indirect Taxes by Service Recipient and (iii)
                minimize any other incremental tax burden on any party or any of its Affiliates as a result of the provision of services under this Agreement. Any such refund or credit recovered shall be paid to the party that bore the relevant Indirect
                Tax less any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other party in obtaining such refund or credit. The parties shall cause Service Recipient and Service Provider to take reasonable steps to cooperate to minimize the imposition
                of, and the amount of any Indirect Taxes described in this Section 1(h).

              (i)          Invoices and Payment.  Unless
                  otherwise agreed on the schedules hereto, within fifteen (15) days after the end of each month, Service Provider shall provide to Service
                  Recipient an invoice for the amount due with respect to the Services provided during such month. Such invoice shall set forth a description of the Services






                  provided during such month and the amount due with respect to each such Service. Undisputed invoices shall be due and payable thirty (30) days after receipt
                  of the invoice, and to the extent not paid when due, Service Recipient shall also be obligated to pay interest on such amount at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum.

               
               

               
              (j)         Invoice Disputes.  In the event of
                  an invoice dispute, Service Recipient shall deliver a written statement to Service Provider no later than ten (10) days prior to the date
                  payment is due on the disputed invoice listing all disputed items and providing a reasonably detailed description of each disputed item. In the event Service Recipient was not aware, and
                  could not reasonably have become aware, of circumstances giving rise to a dispute within the ten (10) days prior to the date such payment is due, then Service Recipient shall have ten (10)
                  days from the date when it first learns of circumstances giving rise to a dispute within which to dispute an invoice in accordance with the foregoing sentence. Amounts not so disputed shall be deemed accepted and shall be paid,
                  notwithstanding disputes on other items, within the period set forth in Section 1(i). The parties shall seek to resolve all such disputes expeditiously and in good faith.

               
               

               
              (k)         Responsibility for Wages and Fees. Any
                employee of Service Provider or any of its Affiliates who, on behalf of Service Provider or its Affiliates, provides Services to Service Recipient under this Agreement







                (each a “Service Provider Employee”) (i) will remain an employee of Service Provider or such Affiliate, as applicable, and shall not be deemed to be an employee of Service Recipient for any purpose, and (ii) Service Provider or such Affiliate, as applicable, shall be solely responsible for the payment and provision of all wages, bonuses and commissions,
                employee benefits, including severance and worker’s compensation, and the withholding and payments of applicable Taxes relating to the employment of such Service Provider Employees.

              (l)          Intellectual Property Ownership and
                    License.  Except as otherwise set forth in the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, each party shall retain all right, title and interest in and to its Intellectual Property used in connection with the Services.  Each party hereby grants on behalf of itself and its Affiliates to the other party and its Affiliates, a limited, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except
                  as set forth in Section 5(c)) license solely during the Transition Period in, to and under all Intellectual Property, software, technology and data owned or controlled by such party or any of its
                  Affiliates, solely to the extent necessary for, as applicable, each Service Provider to provide the Services and each Service Recipient to receive and use the Services.

               
               

               
              2.        







                  Term and Termination.

               
               

               
              (a)        Term.  The term during which the
                  parties shall provide the Services (the “Transition Period”) shall commence on the Effective Date and shall end, as to any particular type of Services, on the date indicated on the schedules hereto (the “End Date”), unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

               
               

               
              (b)         Termination Upon Breach.  Either
                  party may terminate this Agreement upon a material breach by the other party if such material breach is not cured by the breaching party within 30 days following the date on which the
                  non-breaching party gives written notice specifying the facts constituting the default.

               
               

               
              (c)         Partial Termination.  The parties
                  acknowledge and agree that Service Recipient may determine from time to time that it does not require all the Services set out on the applicable
                  schedules hereto or that it does not require such Services for the entire period up to the applicable End Date. Accordingly, Service Recipient may terminate any Service, in whole and not in part, upon notification to Service
                  Provider in writing of any such determination, which notice shall be received by Service Provider no later than 30 days prior to the desired termination date for a particular Service. In the event that (i) any cancellation or termination fees are payable to a Third Party Service Provider as a result of early
                  termination of a Service by Service Recipient and (ii) the amount of such cancellation or termination fees and terms under which such fees are
                  payable are set forth on Schedule A or Schedule B hereto, as applicable, or were communicated to the Service






                  Recipient by the Service Provider in writing prior to the engagement of the Third Party Service Provider, Service Recipient shall reimburse Service Provider for any such charges.

               
               

               
              (d)         Transition of Services.  During the term
                and following termination of this Agreement or the termination of any Services, the parties shall reasonably cooperate in providing for an orderly
                transition of Services to Service Recipient or to a successor service provider.

               
               

               
              (e)         Extension of Services. If Service Recipient in good faith determines in relation to a Service that it cannot
                  timely and/or orderly assume, or have assumed by an Affiliate or a third party such Service, Service
                  Recipient shall be entitled to extend the term for such Service by delivering a written notice of extension to Service Provider no later than ten
                  (10) business days prior to the expiration of the relevant term (the “Extension Notice”). Upon receipt of such Extension Notice, Service Provider shall continue to perform such Service for the extended term as set forth in the Extension







                  Notice; provided that, except as set forth on the Schedules hereto, no individual extension shall be for a period extending past the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date. The Services






                  so performed by Service Provider after the applicable End Date shall continue to constitute Services under
                  this Agreement and be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement for the duration of the agreed-upon extension period.

               
               

              
                D-7

                
                  


              

              (f)         Surviving Obligations.  Upon the
                  expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, all further obligations of the parties hereto shall terminate, except that (i) the provisions of Sections






                    1(k), this Section 2, and Section 5 shall survive any such expiration or termination; (ii) each party to this Agreement shall be entitled to any remedy to which such party may be entitled at Law or in equity for any violation or breach by the other party of this Agreement occurring prior to the date of such expiration or termination; and (iii) each party shall remain obligated to make any payments outstanding under Section
                    1 hereof.

               
               

               
              3.          Plant Rules.  Each party shall, and shall take appropriate measures to ensure that its employees and agents shall, comply in all material respects with all rules and regulations in effect at the
                  premises of the other party, including any security requirements. No party shall stop, delay or interfere with the work schedule of the other party without the prior approval of such other party.

               
               

               
              4.           IT Policies.  From and after
                the Effective Date, Service Recipient and its Affiliates shall cause all of their personnel having
                access to Service Provider’s (or its Affiliates) intranet or other computer software, networks, hardware, technology or computer-based resources (“Service Provider’s Network”) in connection with a Service to comply with all security guidelines (including physical security, network
                access, internet security, confidentiality and personal data security guidelines) of Service Provider and its Affiliates. Service Recipient and its Affiliates shall direct all of their personnel having access to Service







                Provider’s Network that Service Provider’s Network may be used only for the purposes contemplated by, and subject to the terms of, this Agreement.






                Service Provider shall be responsible for any breach of the foregoing directions by any of its and its Affiliates’ personnel.

               
               

               
              5.           General.

               
               

               
              (a)         Governing Law.  This Agreement and
                  all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of
                  action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) shall be governed and construed in accordance with the internal
                  Laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America applicable to contracts made and wholly performed within such State, without regard to any applicable conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the Laws of
                  any other jurisdiction.

               
               

               
              (b)         Force Majeure.  Neither party shall be liable for
                any failure or delay in performance hereunder if such failure or delay is caused, in whole or in part, by fire, flood, earthquake, riot, war, invasion, embargo or any similar event beyond the reasonable control of such party or its Affiliates (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). In the event of a Force Majeure Event, the affected party shall promptly notify the other party of the Force Majeure Event and shall use commercially reasonable
                efforts to remove the Force Majeure Event such that performance may be resumed.

              (c)         Assignment and Amendment of Agreement; Waivers.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto and their respective
                  successors and permitted assigns, but neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, delegated or subcontracted by either party hereto without
                  the prior written consent of the other party and any assignment in violation shall be void ab initio.

              

              (d)         Confidentiality. During the term of
                  this Agreement and thereafter, the parties hereto shall, and shall instruct their respective representatives to, maintain in confidence and not disclose the other party’s financial, technical,
                  sales, marketing, development, personnel, and other information, records, or data, including, without limitation, customer lists, supplier lists, trade secrets, designs, product formulations, product specifications or any other
                  proprietary or confidential information, however recorded or preserved, whether written or oral (any such information, “Confidential Information”). Each party hereto shall use the same degree of care, but no less than reasonable care, to protect the other party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature. Unless otherwise authorized in any other written agreement between the parties, any party receiving any Confidential Information of the other party (the “Receiving Party”) may use Confidential Information only for the purposes of
                  fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement (the “Permitted Purpose”). Any Receiving Party
                  may disclose such Confidential Information only to its representatives who have a need to know such information for the Permitted Purpose and who have been advised of the terms of this Section 5(d) and the Receiving Party
                  shall be liable for any breach of these confidentiality provisions by such Persons; provided, however, that any Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information to the extent such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by a governmental order, in which case the Receiving Party shall promptly notify, to
                  the extent possible, the disclosing party (the “Disclosing Party”), and take reasonable steps to assist in contesting such governmental order or in protecting the Disclosing Party’s rights prior to disclosure (at the Disclosing Party’s expense), and in which case the Receiving Party shall only disclose such Confidential Information that it is
                  advised by its counsel that it is legally bound to disclose under such governmental order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that the Receiving Party can demonstrate: (i) was publicly known at
                  the time of disclosure to it, or has become publicly known through no act of the Receiving Party or its representatives in breach of this Section 5(d)
                  or (ii) was rightfully received from a third party (other than the Company Entities or any of their Affiliates or their respective employees)
                  without a duty of confidentiality. Upon demand by the Disclosing Party at any time, or upon expiration or termination of this Agreement with
                  respect to any Service, the Receiving Party agrees promptly to return or destroy, at the Disclosing
                  Party’s option, all Confidential Information; provided, that the Receiving Party
                  may retain one (1) copy of any such Confidential Information purposes solely for compliance purposes. If such Confidential Information is destroyed, an authorized officer of the Receiving
                  Party shall confirm such destruction in writing.

               
               

               
              (e)         No Professional Services; Reporting Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the schedules hereto, (i) neither Service Provider nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to provide, or shall be deemed to be providing, any legal, financial, accounting or
                  tax advice to Service Recipient or any of its Affiliates, as part of or in connection with the Services






                  provided hereunder or otherwise, and (ii) neither Service Provider nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated, as a result of storing or
                  maintaining any data referred to herein or in the schedules, to prepare or deliver any notification or report to any Governmental Authority or other Person






                  on behalf of Service Recipient or its Affiliates, unless such notification and/or report is expressly identified on the schedules hereto as a
                  component of the applicable Service.

              (f)          Notices.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all notices, consents, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be provided in accordance with the provisions
                  of Section 11.7 of the Purchase Agreement. Each party hereto shall designate a representative to act as the primary contact person for the provision of the Services. To the extent practicable, all communications relating to the provision of the Services shall be directed through the representatives. Buyer’s initial representative shall be [•], and EnPro Holding’s initial representative shall be [•]. The parties shall advise each other in writing, in
                  accordance with the provisions of Section 11.7 of the Purchase Agreement, of any change of their respective representatives. The representatives shall meet on a periodic basis, as
                  reasonably requested by Buyer or EnPro Holdings, during the term and shall address all issues related to the performance of the Services under this Agreement. The meetings of the representatives may be conducted by telephone.

               
               

               
              (g)         Independent Contractor.  The relationship between EnPro
                  Holdings and Buyer hereunder shall be an independent contractor relationship. Neither party shall be the agent of the other nor shall either party have any authority to act on behalf of the other in
                  any manner or matter except in the manner and to the extent that the other may expressly agree to in writing.  Persons retained by either party as employees or agents shall not by reason thereof be
                  deemed to be employees or agents of the other party. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, agency, trust or other association of any
                  kind, each party being individually responsible only for its obligations as set forth in this Agreement. In addition, each party agrees that all employees and other personnel that such party may
                  use to perform the Services hereunder shall remain, at all times and for all purposes, employees or agents of such party, and shall not be, or be deemed to be, employees or agents of the other
                  party. Each party shall be responsible for all liabilities and obligations concerning all of the respective employees or agents of such party (arising from whatever source, including foreign, federal, state, or common law, tort, and/or
                  contract).

               
               

               
              (h)         Limitation of
                    Damages.  NO PARTY HERETO SHALL BE LIABLE HEREUNDER FOR ANY LOSSES RELATING TO THE SERVICES PROVIDED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, EXCEPT FOR LOSSES
                  ARISING OUT OF SUCH PARTY’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’ (I) MATERIAL BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT IS NOT CURED BY THE BREACHING PARTY WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FOLLOWING THE DATE ON WHICH THE NON-BREACHING PARTY GIVES WRITTEN NOTICE SPECIFYING THE
                  FACTS CONSTITUTING THE DEFAULT (UNLESS SUCH BREACH IS INCAPABLE OF BEING CURED IN SUCH THIRTY DAY PERIOD BUT THE BREACHING PARTY HAS COMMUNICATED A REASONABLE PLAN TO CURE SUCH BREACH WITHIN A LONGER PERIOD NOT TO EXCEED 60 DAYS AND IS
                  USING COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE AND DILIGENT EFFORTS TO IMPLEMENT SUCH PLAN) OR (II) GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILFUL MISCONDUCT OR FRAUD. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED HEREIN, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT NO WARRANTY SHALL BE IMPLIED UNDER THIS
                  AGREEMENT, WHETHER WARRANTIES OF UTILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF ANY OTHER TYPE AND THAT NO WARRANTIES OF ANY SORT ARE MADE HEREIN. WITHOUT LIMITING THE
                  FOREGOING, AND SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 5(H), EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF A PARTY’S (I) BAD FAITH, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR FRAUD IN THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES, NEITHER PARTY SHALL ASSERT AND EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
                  OTHER INDIRECT DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFIT OR REVENUES AND LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY) ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES.

                  section headings appearing in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such paragraph or in any way
                  affect such paragraph.

               
               

               
              (j)          Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts with the same force and effect as if each of the signatories had executed the same instrument. A signed copy of this Agreement








                  delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

               
               

               
              (k)         Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits, together with the Purchase
                  Agreement and the other agreements executed in connection therewith, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof. The Schedules and Exhibits hereto are an integral part
                  of this Agreement and are incorporated by reference herein. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, promises, representations
                  and statements between the parties and their representatives with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

               
               

               
              (l)         Remedies. The parties hereto agree
                  that irreparable damage may occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specific terms or was otherwise breached.  It is accordingly agreed that the parties will be entitled to seek an
                  injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled hereunder, at law or in equity.

               
               

               
              (m)        Books and Records.  Each party shall

              Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used with a capital letter in this Adherence Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.

                        terms and conditions thereof, with the same effect as if Coltec France had executed and delivered the Agreement directly as an Equity Seller on the date hereof.

                    


               

              Coltec France agrees that its undertakings set forth in this Adherence Agreement are for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable against it by, each Person
