	Re:	Final Binding Offer 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

 

	1.	Submission of Offer. Cardinal Health, Inc. (“Buyer”) is pleased to submit this final, binding and irrevocable offer (this “Offer”) to Ethicon, Inc. (“Seller”)
for the acquisition of certain assets and equity interests, and the assumption of certain liabilities, of the Business (as defined in the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement referred to below) (the “Acquisition”), on the terms and
subject only to the conditions set forth in the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement attached to this Offer as Exhibit 1 and duly executed and delivered by Buyer (including the Schedules and Exhibits thereto, the “Stock and Asset
Purchase Agreement”). Buyer hereby confirms that if the Principal Closing Date occurred on the date hereof, the conditions set forth in Section 5.02(a) of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement would be satisfied and that Buyer will
not take any action prior to the earlier of (x) the Offer Acceptance (as defined below) and (y) the Offer Termination Time (as defined below) which would cause such condition to not be satisfied. Buyer agrees that it will comply with, and
will cause its Affiliates that are or will be parties to any Transaction Document to comply with, the covenants set forth in Article VI and Section 8.01(a) of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement during the period from the date of this
Offer to the Offer Termination Time (or, if this Offer is accepted by Seller in the manner contemplated herein, to the time as set forth in the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement). Capitalized terms used in this Offer shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement unless otherwise defined herein. 

  

	2.	 Offer Termination Time. This Offer will remain valid until 11:59 P.M., New York time, on the earlier of (a) the second business day after
the date on which each of the employees’ representative bodies of Seller and its Affiliates in France and Germany have concluded the information and/or consultation processes in connection with the Acquisition and delivered their respective
final opinions, if applicable, in connection therewith (the “Consultation Processes”) and (b) May 30, 2015; provided that, if the Consultation Processes shall not have concluded by such date and Buyer or Seller, as the
case may be, shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations with respect to such Consultation Processes pursuant to paragraph 7 below, then Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall be permitted to extend this











	 	
date from time to time in consecutive increments of up to 30 days each, but in any event no later than July 29, 2015 (this time, as such time may be so extended by Buyer or Seller, the
“Offer Termination Time”). The party extending the Offer Termination Time shall provide notice to the other party of any extension of the Offer Termination Time no later than one business day prior to the then current Offer
Termination Time. 

  

	3.	Offer Acceptance and Extension. Seller may accept this Offer by executing and delivering to Buyer a countersignature to the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement no later than the Offer Termination Time. Delivery of
the executed countersignature to the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement may be made by Seller to Buyer in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 11.07 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Offer
Acceptance”). Seller agrees that no later than the second business day after the date on which each of the employees’ representative bodies of Seller and its Affiliates in France and Germany have concluded their respective Consultation
Processes, Seller shall promptly make a decision whether or not to accept the Offer, and following such decision, Seller shall promptly communicate such decision to Buyer and, in the event such decision is to accept the Offer, promptly deliver the
Offer Acceptance. 

  

	4.	Acknowledgement. Buyer hereby confirms to Seller that this Offer is binding in accordance with its terms and, except in the event of termination of this Offer pursuant to paragraph 8, may not be revoked by Buyer
in any respect or for any reason prior to the Offer Termination Time. Each of Buyer and Seller hereby acknowledges that the other party is relying on this Offer and the promises, representations, warranties and covenants contained herein.


  

	5.	Exclusivity. 

  

	 	a.	Seller hereby agrees that, during the period beginning on the date hereof and continuing until the earlier of (x) the Offer Acceptance and (y) the Offer Termination Time (the “Exclusivity
Period”), Seller will not, nor will it permit any of its Affiliates, the Transferred Companies and its and their respective directors, officers or employees, or any attorney, accountant or other representative retained by any of them
(collectively, “Representatives”) to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public information), or take any other action designed or reasonably likely to
facilitate, any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Proposal (as defined below), (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or
negotiations regarding, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any Person with respect to, any Alternative Proposal or (iii) enter into or approve any agreement with respect to any
Alternative Proposal. None of Seller, any of its Affiliates or any of the Transferred Companies shall release any third party from, or waive any provision of, any confidentiality agreement with respect to the Business to which it is a party and
which was entered into with respect to any potential Alternative Proposal. Seller and its Affiliates shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, with respect to third parties with whom discussions or negotiations with respect to an
Alternative Proposal have been terminated on or prior to the date of this Offer, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the return or destruction of, in accordance with the terms of the applicable confidentiality agreement, confidential
information previously furnished by Seller or any of its Affiliates, or its or their Representatives, with respect to the Business. 









	 	b.	Seller will promptly notify Buyer orally (and then in writing within twenty-four (24) hours) after it or any of its Affiliates has received any proposal, inquiry, offer or request relating to or constituting, or
that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Proposal, any request for discussions or negotiations, or any request for information relating to the Business in connection with an Alternative Proposal or a potential Alternative
Proposal or for access to the properties or books and records thereof of which Seller or any of its Affiliates is or becomes aware, or any amendments to the foregoing. Such notice to Buyer shall indicate the identity of the person making such
proposal and the terms and conditions of such proposal, if any. Seller shall also promptly provide Buyer with (i) a copy of any written notice or other written communication from any person informing Seller or any of its Affiliates that it is
considering making, or has made a proposal regarding, an Alternative Proposal, (ii) a copy of any Alternative Proposal (or any amendment thereof) received by Seller or any of its Affiliates and (iii) such other details of any such
Alternative Proposal that Buyer may reasonably request. Thereafter, Seller shall promptly keep Buyer reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of any material change to the terms of any such Alternative Proposal. 


 

	 	c.	For purposes of this paragraph 5, the term “Alternative Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer, or any expression of interest by any third party relating to Seller’s or any of its
Affiliates’ willingness or ability to receive or discuss a proposal or offer, other than a proposal or offer by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, for any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, share exchange, recapitalization, liquidation,
dissolution, acquisition or other business combination, in each case relating to twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the assets of the Business. 

  

	6.	Publicity. With respect to this Offer and the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement, Buyer and Seller each hereby agree to comply with the restrictions set forth in
Section 6.05 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement; provided, however, that, without limiting either party’s ability to make such disclosures as may be required by applicable Law, in connection with the Consultation
Processes, Seller may make available to the applicable employees’ representative bodies of Seller and its Affiliates such information as Seller determines is reasonably necessary to effect such Consultation Processes. 


 

	7.	Consultation Process; Representations; Covenants. 

  

	 	a.	Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, comply in all material respects with all appropriate requirements and procedures in connection with the Consultation Processes and shall convene meetings of the
appropriate works councils as soon as reasonably practicable with a view to obtaining expeditious delivery of the opinions of the works councils. Seller shall keep Buyer regularly informed of the status of matters relating to the delivery of the
opinions of the works councils, including furnishing Buyer promptly of copies of notices or details of any substantive material communications obtained by Seller whether orally or in writing as part of the Consultation Processes. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, Seller undertakes to inform Buyer in writing as soon as possible (and in any event no later than two (2) business days) after any Consultation Process has been completed. 


 

	 	b.	 Without limiting the generality of paragraph 1 of this Offer, Buyer hereby agrees to cooperate and use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist
Seller (as set forth in 










	 	
Section 6.06 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement) in effecting the Consultation Processes, including providing such information (including information in respect of Buyer’s
employee benefit plans, if any) to, and attending such meetings with, the applicable employees’ representative bodies, in each case as may be required by applicable Laws or practices or as may be reasonably requested by Seller or such
employees’ representative bodies or their respective agents or advisors in connection with the Consultation Processes. 

  

	 	c.	Seller agrees that it will comply with, and will cause its Affiliates that are or will be parties to any Transaction Document to comply with, the covenants set forth in Article VI and Section 8.01(b) of the
Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement during the period from the date of this Offer to the Offer Termination Time (or, if this Offer is accepted by Seller in the manner contemplated herein, to the time as set forth in the Stock and Asset Purchase
Agreement). 

  

	 	d.	Seller hereby confirms that, if the Principal Closing Date occurred on the date hereof, the conditions set forth in Section 5.01(a) of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement would be satisfied, and Seller hereby
agrees to not take any action prior to the earlier of (x) the Offer Acceptance and (y) the Offer Termination Time which would cause such condition to not be satisfied. 


 

	8.	Termination. This Offer may be terminated: 

  

	 	a.	by the mutual written consent of Buyer and Seller; or 

  

	 	b.	by Buyer, by written notice to Seller (such notice to be delivered in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in Section 11.07 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement), at any time prior to the Offer
Acceptance, if Seller shall have breached in any material respect any of Seller’s covenants or agreements contained in clause (a) of paragraph 5; provided, however, that Buyer may only terminate this Offer pursuant to
this clause (b) if at the time of termination Buyer is not in material breach of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Offer. 

  

	9.	Termination Fees. 

  

	 	a.	 If (i) this Offer is terminated by Buyer pursuant to clause (b) of paragraph 8 or (ii) (A) any Person shall have made an
Alternative Proposal after the date hereof but prior to the Offer Termination Time, (B) Seller fails to deliver the Offer Acceptance by the Offer Termination Time and (C) within twelve (12) months after the Offer Termination Time,
Seller or any of its Affiliates shall have entered into a definitive agreement with respect to any Alternative Proposal or shall have consummated a transaction contemplated by any Alternative Proposal, then, in each of the cases of clause
(i) or (ii), Seller shall pay to Buyer, in immediately available funds by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by Buyer, an amount equal to four percent (4.0%) of the Purchase Price (the “Termination
Fee”). Any payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to clause (i) shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days following the termination of this Offer by Buyer, and payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to clause
(ii) shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days following the earlier of the date on which Seller or its Affiliate executes the definitive agreement with respect to the Alternative Proposal or the date on which Seller or its
Affiliate consummates any transaction contemplated by any Alternative Proposal. In 










	 	
the event that Seller shall have made the Expense Reimbursement payment to Buyer pursuant to paragraph 9(b) below, then the amount of any Termination Fee shall be reduced by the amount of such
Expense Reimbursement payment. 

  

	 	b.	If the Offer Acceptance has not been made for any reason prior to the Offer Termination Time, Seller shall promptly (but in any event not more than five (5) Business Days following the Offer Termination Time)
pay to Buyer, in immediately available funds by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by Buyer, an amount of cash in respect of Buyer’s expenses equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Purchase Price (the “Expense
Reimbursement”). 

  

	 	c.	The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this paragraph 9 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Offer, and that, without these agreements, neither Seller nor
Buyer would have entered into this Offer. Accordingly, if Seller fails to promptly pay any amount due pursuant to this paragraph 9, and, in order to obtain such payment, Buyer commences any action which results in an award of, or a judgment
against Seller for, the Termination Fee or the Expense Reimbursement (or any portion thereof), Seller shall pay Buyer’s reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses of enforcement) in connection with
such action. 

  

	 	d.	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that this Offer terminates because the Consultation Processes shall have not concluded by the Offer Termination Time, Buyer has materially breached its
obligations with respect to the Consultation Processes pursuant to clause (b) of paragraph 7 of the failure of Consultation Process, and such breach was the proximate cause of the failure of the Consultation Processes to conclude by the
Offer Termination Time (and Seller shall have complied with its obligations with respect to such Consultation Processes), then Buyer shall not be entitled to receive the Termination Fee pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph 9(a) or the Expense
Reimbursement pursuant to paragraph 9(b). 

  

	10.	Date of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement; Anti-Trust Filings. Buyer and Seller hereby agree that, upon acceptance of the Offer and the execution and delivery of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement by
Seller, (x) the date of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement as used therein shall be deemed to be the date hereof and (y) the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement shall be treated for all purposes as if executed and delivered by Buyer and
Seller on the date hereof, notwithstanding the execution and delivery thereof by Seller at a later date. Buyer and Seller hereby agree, as permitted by applicable Law, to commence the filing and obtaining of consents, approvals, authorizations,
qualifications and orders of Governmental Entities and other third parties as set forth in Section 6.06 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof. 


 

	11.	Governing Law and Dispute Resolution. This Offer shall be governed by the law of the State of New York without reference to any provisions thereof that would require the application of the laws of any other
jurisdiction. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising from or related in any way to this Offer or the interpretation, application, breach, termination or validity thereof, including any claim of inducement of this Offer by fraud or otherwise, will
be subject to the provisions of Section 11.12 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement. 

  

	12.	Incorporation by Reference. Sections 11.04 through 11.15 of the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Offer, the terms of which shall apply to this Offer, mutatis
mutandis, as though set forth herein, with references to “this Agreement” interpreted to refer to “this Offer.” 









	13.	Countersignature. Seller’s countersignature of this Offer shall in no event be construed as an acceptance by Seller of this Offer and Seller shall not be under any obligation to sell or transfer to Buyer or
any of its Affiliates any portion of the Business or to execute the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement or any other agreements in respect of the Acquisition, and, subject to paragraph 9, Seller shall have no liability to Buyer or any of its
Affiliates as a result of Seller’s determination not to accept this Offer.

 SECTION 1.02. Interpretation and Construction. (a) Unless otherwise provided herein, all monetary
values stated herein are expressed in United States currency and all references to “dollars” or “$” will be deemed references to the lawful money of the United States. 

(b) Each accounting term set forth herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning accorded it under GAAP. 

(c) Except as provided in Section 2.03(b), whenever conversion of values from any Foreign Currency for a particular date or period shall
be required, such conversion shall be made using the rate provided by Bloomberg at 5:00 A.M. New York City time (the “Exchange Rate”) three (3) business days prior to the applicable date or dates. 

(d) The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent
or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this
Agreement. Any reference to any federal, 








  
 16 

 
state, local or foreign Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. When a reference is made in this Agreement to
a party or to a Section or Exhibit, such reference shall be to a party to, a Section of, or an Exhibit to, this Agreement, unless otherwise indicated. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Schedule, such reference shall be to a Schedule to
the Disclosure Letter, unless otherwise indicated. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have their defined meanings when used in any Exhibit to this Agreement or Schedule to the Disclosure Letter, as applicable, or any certificate or other
document made or delivered pursuant hereto, unless otherwise defined therein. Whenever used in this Agreement, “business day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday or a day on which banking and savings and loan institutions
are authorized or required by applicable Law to be closed in the State of New York. Whenever the words “include,” “includes,” “including” or “such as” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be
followed by the words “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” 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 word “or” when used in this Agreement is not exclusive. The word “extent” in
the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.” Whenever used in this Agreement, any noun or pronoun shall be deemed to include the plural as well
as the singular and to cover all genders. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, supplemented or modified, including (i) (in the case of
agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and (ii) all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. The words “asset” and
“property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any Country Transfer Agreement, the terms
of this Agreement shall control. 
 ARTICLE II 

Closings 
 SECTION 2.01.
Closings. (a) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Transferred Assets and Transferred Equity Interests relating to the Principal Country Units and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities relating to the Principal Country Units
(the “Principal Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP in New York, New York, at 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second business day following the satisfaction (or, to the
extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver) of the conditions set forth in Article V with respect to the Principal Closing (excluding those conditions intended to be satisfied at the Principal Closing but subject to their satisfaction or, to
the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver at such time). The date on which the Principal Closing occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Principal Closing Date.” The Principal Closing shall be deemed to occur and be
effective at 11:59 P.M., local time, on the date of such Principal Closing. The parties 








  
 17 

 
hereto specifically acknowledge that time is of the essence because Seller’s intention to exit the Business is or will become known to its employees, customers, suppliers and others having
dealings with Seller. 
 (b) The closing of the transfer of the Transferred Assets and Transferred Equity Interests relating to each
Non-Principal Country Unit and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities relating to such Non-Principal Country Unit will occur as soon as reasonably practicable following the Principal Closing Date on the date agreed to by Buyer and Seller within
the period specified in Exhibit E to the Transition Services Agreement, so long as the conditions set forth in Article V with respect to such Non-Principal Country Unit (excluding those conditions intended to be satisfied at such Closing
but subject to their satisfaction or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver at such time) have been satisfied or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waived by such date (each such date, a “Non-Principal Country Unit
Closing Date”). During the period from the Principal Closing until the occurrence of the applicable Non-Principal Country Unit Closing, none of the assets or liabilities of the applicable Non-Principal Country Unit shall be transferred to
or assumed by Buyer, as the case may be, but Seller shall hold and operate such Non-Principal Country Unit in a manner consistent with Seller’s obligations under Section 6.01. The parties shall enter into a distribution arrangement with
respect to such Non-Principal Country Unit giving effect to the foregoing, pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.02.
Transferred Assets and Transferred Equity Interests/Excluded Assets; Assumed/Excluded Liabilities. (a) Transferred Assets and Transferred Equity Interests. Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, at the Applicable Closing, Seller will, and will cause the relevant Asset Selling Affiliates to, sell, convey, assign, and transfer to Buyer, and Buyer will purchase, acquire and accept, the Transferred Assets related to the applicable
Country Unit, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens. Accordingly, Seller will, or will cause the relevant Asset Selling Affiliates to, execute and deliver at the Principal Closing a general assignment and bill of sale in the form of
Exhibit B (the “General Assignment”), a general patent assignment in the form of Exhibit C (the “Patent Assignment”) and a general trademark assignment in the form of Exhibit D (the
“Trademark Assignment”) and at each Applicable Closing such other instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer as Buyer reasonably requests (the form and substance of which shall be mutually agreed between the parties), in
each case to convey to Buyer all of Seller’s or each Asset Selling Affiliate’s right, title and interest in and to the applicable Transferred Assets. In addition, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, at the Applicable Closing, Seller will, and will cause the relevant Stock Selling Affiliates to, sell, convey, assign, and transfer to Buyer, and Buyer will purchase, acquire and accept, the Transferred Equity Interests (and will
indirectly acquire and accept by means of such purchase acquisition and acceptance, the equity interests in any Transferred Company that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another Transferred Company) related to the applicable Country Unit, free and
clear of all Liens. Accordingly, Seller will, or will cause the relevant Stock Selling Affiliates to, deliver at the Applicable Closing stock certificates representing the Transferred Equity Interests, together with a stock power endorsed in blank.









  
 18 

 (b) Excluded Assets. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, Buyer is not
purchasing, pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, Seller’s (or any of its Affiliates’) right, title or interest in any asset that is not a Transferred Asset or Transferred Equity Interest. Specifically, Seller’s (and
any of its Affiliates’) right, title or interest in any Excluded Asset is not being conveyed to Buyer. 
 (c) Assumed
Liabilities. At the Applicable Closing, Buyer shall assume the Assumed Liabilities related to the applicable Country Unit and shall agree to satisfy and discharge when due the Assumed Liabilities related to the applicable Country Unit. After the
Applicable Closing, Buyer shall pay all Assumed Liabilities related to the applicable Country Units as and when such liabilities become due. Buyer will execute and deliver to Seller at the Principal Closing an assumption agreement in the form of
Exhibit E (the “Assumption Agreement”) and at each Non-Principal Country Unit Closing such other agreements and instruments as Seller reasonably requests (the form and substance of which shall be mutually agreed between the
parties), whereby Buyer agrees to assume and undertakes to pay, perform and discharge as and when due, the Assumed Liabilities related to the applicable Country Units. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Applicable Closing, by means of the
acquisition of the Transferred Equity Interests and not by means of a direct assumption of such liabilities by Buyer, Buyer shall be responsible for the liabilities of the Transferred Companies that would otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities
pursuant to Annex 2.02(c) (as more specifically set forth in Section 6.08). 
 (d) Excluded Liabilities. Anything to the
contrary herein notwithstanding, neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall assume or be obligated to pay, perform or otherwise discharge, pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Transactions, any Excluded Liability. Seller and its Affiliates
will remain liable to pay, perform and discharge when due, all Excluded Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, at the Applicable Closing, the acquisition of the Transferred Equity Interests shall not result in the assumption by Buyer of the
liabilities and obligations of the Transferred Companies that would otherwise constitute Excluded Liabilities pursuant to Annex 2.02(d) (as more specifically set forth in Section 6.08). 

(e) Country Transfer Agreements. To the extent required by applicable Law or as deemed necessary by either of the parties hereto, the
transfer of each Country Unit will be effected pursuant to a short-form agreement or one or more instruments of transfer, such as a bill of sale, share transfer agreement, business transfer agreement, real estate transfer agreement or other asset
assignment document, which agreement shall be prepared by Seller and shall be on terms mutually agreed between the parties hereto and consistent with and as close as reasonably possible to the applicable terms of this Agreement (each, a
“Country Transfer Agreement”). The parties shall enter into the Country Transfer Agreements as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof and not later than the relevant Applicable Closing. 

(f) Designation of Affiliates. To the extent that any of the Transferred Assets or Transferred Equity Interests are under the control
of any of Seller’s Affiliates, Seller shall cause its Affiliates to promptly take such legal action as may be necessary to 








  
 19 

 
consummate the transfer to Buyer and its Affiliates of such Transferred Assets or Transferred Equity Interests under terms and conditions which are consistent with and subject to the terms of
this Agreement. Prior to, and in any event at least 30 days in advance of, any Applicable Closing, Buyer may designate, with the consent of Seller (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), one or more Affiliates to, at such Applicable
Closing, (i) acquire all or part of the Transferred Assets or Transferred Equity Interests, (ii) assume all or part of the Assumed Liabilities or (iii) pay a designated portion of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.03, in
each case related to the applicable Country Unit, as the case may be, in which event all references herein to Buyer will be deemed to refer to such Affiliates, as appropriate; provided, however, that no such designation will in any
event limit or affect the obligations of Buyer under this Agreement to the extent not performed by such Affiliates. 
 (g) Transferred
Assets Subject to Third-Party Consent. To the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery to Buyer (or one of its Affiliates) of any Transferred Asset is
prohibited by any applicable Law or would require any governmental or third-party authorizations, approvals (including Anti-Trust Approvals), consents or waivers and such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers shall not have been obtained
prior to the Applicable Closing, this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery thereof. From the date hereof until eighteen (18) months after the Applicable Closing Date, the parties shall use their
respective reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other to obtain promptly such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers and to give any notices required for the transfer of such Transferred Asset and to obtain from third parties an
approval or consent to establish a new contract with Buyer or its designated Affiliate with respect to the portion of any Commingled Contract related to the Business, pursuant to which Buyer or its designated Affiliate will have access to the rights
and benefits of such Commingled Contract with respect to the Business on substantially the same terms and conditions provided to Seller and its Affiliates prior to the Applicable Closing, or to assign such portion to Buyer or its designated
Affiliate; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to pay any consideration (other than customary filing and application fees typically paid by a seller or transferee) or make any concession therefor. If such
authorization, approval, consent or waiver is obtained, Seller shall promptly assign, transfer, convey or deliver any such Transferred Asset or, if applicable, that portion of any Commingled Contract, as the case may be, to Buyer or its designee
pursuant to Section 2.02(f) at no additional cost. Pending the earlier of obtaining such authorization, approval, consent or waiver or the expiration of such eighteen-month (18 month) period, insofar as reasonably practicable and to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, Seller shall hold such Transferred Assets for the benefit of Buyer and shall operate such Transferred Assets in a manner to place Buyer in a substantially similar position as if such Transferred Assets had been sold,
conveyed, assigned and transferred. Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Seller in connection with any actions taken by Seller pursuant to this Section 2.02(g). Buyer further agrees that, if Seller shall have complied
with its obligations under this Agreement with respect to using reasonable best efforts to obtain such authorization, approval, consent or waiver, Seller shall not be in breach of this Agreement solely as a result of the failure to obtain any such
authorization, approval, consent or waiver. 








  
 20 

 (h) Buyer’s Recording and Similar Responsibilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.02, it shall be Buyer’s responsibility (i) to prepare the applicable country patent assignments and trademark assignments in respect of the Transferred IP and to record such assignments following execution
thereof by Seller (or its applicable Affiliate), (ii) to apply for its own marketing authorizations for the Products to the relevant regulatory authorities where it is not within the power of Seller to cause, by giving notice to the applicable
regulatory authority or otherwise, the transfer directly to Buyer of the existing marketing authorizations that are Transferred Assets and (iii) to bear the fees and other costs in accordance with Section 2.06(d). Seller shall, and shall
cause its Affiliates to, provide all reasonable assistance to Buyer in connection with the foregoing at Buyer’s expense. 
 (i)
Japan Corporate Split. Seller may elect (on notice to Buyer no later than forty-five (45) calendar days after the date of this Agreement) to transfer, assign and convey to Buyer on the Applicable Closing Date the Transferred Assets and
Assumed Liabilities relating to Japan by way of a “corporate split” pursuant to Japan Corporate-Split Law. If Seller so elects, Seller and Buyer shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, execute and deliver a Country Transfer Agreement
or other document, the form and substance of which shall be mutually agreed between the parties (it being understood that, in the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any Country Transfer Agreement or other document, the terms of this
Agreement shall control), and to take such other actions, as may be necessary or desirable to give effect to the foregoing, including, if applicable, amending Schedule 3.01(b) to the Disclosure Letter to include a newly formed subsidiary of
either Seller or an Affiliate of Seller (“Japan NewCo”), in which case Japan NewCo shall be deemed to be a Transferred Company for all purposes hereof. 

SECTION 2.03. Purchase Price. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Principal Closing, Buyer shall (or
shall cause one or more of its Affiliates as Buyer may designate pursuant to Section 2.02(f) to) pay or cause to be paid to Seller (or one or more of its Affiliates as Seller may designate), in immediately available funds by wire transfer to
one or more bank accounts designated in writing by Seller at least two business days prior to the Principal Closing Date, cash in U.S. dollars (subject to Section 2.03(b)) in an amount exclusive of any Transfer Taxes equal to the Purchase
Price. 
 (b) Buyer shall pay the portion of the Purchase Price applicable to the Country Units identified on Schedule 2.03(b) to the
Disclosure Letter in the applicable Foreign Currency set forth on such Schedule. The conversion rate from U.S. dollars to the applicable Foreign Currency shall be the closing rate provided by Bloomberg at 5:00 A.M. New York City time two
(2) business days prior to the Principal Closing Date; provided, however, that if applicable Law in a Country Unit identified on Schedule 2.03(b) to the Disclosure Letter requires that the applicable portion of the Purchase Price
be paid by a legal entity organized under the laws of such Country Unit, and Buyer reasonably requires more than two business days to convert U.S. dollars into the 








  
 21 

 
applicable Foreign Currency and thereafter transfer such funds to one of its Affiliates so organized, then Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to agree on an alternative conversion
mechanism that will allow Buyer to pay the applicable portion of the Purchase Price on the Principal Closing Date in accordance with applicable Law. Schedule 2.03(b) to the Disclosure Letter sets forth Seller’s good-faith estimate as of the
date of this Agreement of the portion of the Purchase Price to be allocated to each Country Unit identified therein for payment in a Foreign Currency. 

(c) The “Purchase Price” shall be equal to one billion nine hundred forty four million dollars ($1,944,000,000) increased or
decreased as a result of the inventory adjustment, if any, pursuant to Section 2.04, and shall be allocated as described in Section 2.05. 

SECTION 2.04. Purchase Price Adjustment. (a) For the purposes of clarification only, Seller is retaining all accounts payable and
accounts receivable with respect to each Country Unit arising out of the operation and conduct of the Business before the Applicable Closing for such Country Unit and the only purchase price adjustment after any Closing with respect to changes in
the working capital of the Business will be the adjustment of the Inventory pursuant to this Section 2.04. 
 (b) Within ninety
(90) days after the Applicable Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement in the form of Schedule 2.04(b) to the Disclosure Letter (in its draft form, a “Price Adjustment Statement”),
setting forth, with respect to each applicable Country Unit, (i) the book value of the Inventory, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Policies, transferred to Buyer in respect of such Country Unit as of the Applicable Closing Date (the
“Closing Inventory”) and (ii) the Prepaid Tax Amount as of the Principal Closing Date. To the extent that the book value of the applicable Closing Inventory is greater than the applicable Inventory Target or less than the
applicable Inventory Target, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as described in Section 2.04(f) below. To the extent that the Prepaid Tax Amount (once final and binding pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.04) as of the Principal
Closing Date is greater than the Estimated Prepaid Tax Amount or less than the Estimated Prepaid Tax Amount, the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as described in Section 2.04(g) below. 

(c) In connection with the preparation of each Price Adjustment Statement, (i) Buyer shall (A) assist, and shall cause its
Affiliates to assist, Seller, its accountants, advisors and other representatives in its preparation of each Price Adjustment Statement and (B) afford to Seller, its accountants, advisors and other representatives, reasonable access during
normal business hours to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Business to the extent relevant to the preparation of any Price Adjustment Statement (including taking and preparing physical counts of Inventory) and (ii) Seller
shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, consult with Buyer in good faith and provide Buyer, its accountants, advisors and other representatives with any reasonably requested information, data or back-up materials with respect to the calculation of
the Closing Inventory. For purposes of this Section 2.04, the calculation of book value of the Inventory will reflect any accounting reserves or adjustments (net of obsolescence) and otherwise be determined in a manner consistent with
Seller’s 








  
 22 

 
Inventory and other relevant accounting policies used in the preparation of the Financial Information, set forth in Schedule 2.04(c) to the Disclosure Letter (the “Accounting
Policies”). 
 (d) Each Price Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding upon the parties on the forty-fifth
(45th) day following receipt thereof by Buyer unless Buyer gives written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to Seller prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the
nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted. If a timely Notice of Disagreement is received by Seller, then the relevant Price Adjustment Statement (as revised in accordance with clause (x) or (y) below) shall become final and
binding upon the parties on the earlier of (x) the date the parties hereto resolve any differences they have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Disagreement or (y) the date any matters in dispute are resolved by an
accounting firm (in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 2.04) selected by Seller and Buyer or, if the parties are unable to agree, an independent accounting firm selected by Seller’s and Buyer’s independent
accounting firms (such firm, the “Accounting Firm”). 
 (e) Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the dispute
resolution provisions set forth in Section 11.12 shall not apply to any dispute described in this Section 2.04. During the thirty-(30) day period immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement, Seller and Buyer shall
seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences they may have with respect to any matter specified in the Notice of Disagreement. At the end of such thirty- (30) day period, Seller and Buyer shall submit for review and resolution by
the Accounting Firm any and all matters which remain in dispute and which were included in the Notice of Disagreement, and the Accounting Firm shall make a final determination of the values set forth on the relevant Price Adjustment Statement (and
shall use such determination to prepare the relevant final Price Adjustment Statement), which determination shall be binding on the parties; provided, however, the scope of such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be limited to:
(i) those matters that remain in dispute and that were included in the Notice of Disagreement; (ii) whether, for each calculation of Inventory, such calculation was prepared in accordance with this Section 2.04, specifically, whether
the Accounting Policies were used; and (iii) whether there were mathematical errors in the relevant Price Adjustment Statement, and the Accounting Firm is not authorized or permitted to make any other determination. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Accounting Firm is not authorized or permitted to make any determination as to the accuracy of Section 3.06 or any other representation or warranty in this Agreement or as to compliance by Seller, Buyer or any
of their respective Affiliates with any of the covenants in this Agreement (other than this Section 2.04). The relevant Price Adjustment Statement shall become final and binding on Buyer and Seller on the date the Accounting Firm delivers the
relevant final Price Adjustment Statement to the parties. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be borne one-half each by Buyer and Seller. 

(f) If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the book value of the applicable Closing Inventory exceeds the applicable Inventory
Target, then the amount of 








  
 23 

 
such excess shall be added on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the Purchase Price. If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the book value of the applicable Closing Inventory is less than the
applicable Inventory Target, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such deficit. If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the book value of the applicable Closing Inventory is equal to the
applicable Inventory Target, then there shall be no Inventory adjustment to the Purchase Price in respect of the Applicable Closing. 
 (g)
If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the Prepaid Tax Amount as of the Principal Closing Date exceeds the Estimated Prepaid Tax Amount, then the amount of such excess shall be added on a dollar-for-dollar basis to the Purchase Price. If
the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the Prepaid Tax Amount as of the Principal Closing Date is less than the Estimated Prepaid Tax Amount, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of such deficit.
If the Price Adjustment Statement discloses that the Prepaid Tax Amount as of the Principal Closing Date is equal to the Estimated Prepaid Tax Amount, then there shall be no Prepaid Tax Amount adjustment to the Purchase Price in respect of the
Principal Closing. 
 (h) No payment pursuant to Section 2.04(f) or Section 2.04(g) need be made by either party until the date
that is fifteen (15) business days after the determination of each final Price Adjustment Statement (the “Purchase Price Adjustment Due Date”); provided that, on or before any Purchase Price Adjustment Due Date,
(i) Buyer (or one or more of its Affiliates as may be designated by Buyer) shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller (or one or more of the Selling Affiliates as may be designated by Seller), in immediately available funds by wire transfer to one
or more bank accounts designated in writing by Seller at least two business days prior to such Purchase Price Adjustment Due Date, cash in U.S. dollars in an amount equal to the positive Purchase Price adjustment under Section 2.04(f) or
Section 2.04(g), if any, or (ii) Seller (or one or more of its Affiliates as may be designated by Seller) shall pay or cause to be paid to Buyer (or one or more of its Affiliates as may be designated by Buyer), in immediately available
funds by wire transfer to one or more bank accounts designated in writing by Buyer at least two business days prior to such Purchase Price Adjustment Due Date, cash in U.S. dollars in an amount equal to the negative Purchase Price adjustment under
Section 2.04(f) or Section 2.04(g), if any. 
 SECTION 2.05. Allocation of Purchase Price. (a)Buyer and Seller shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to agree on an allocation of the Purchase Price (the “Allocation”) prior to the Principal Closing Date. The Allocation shall allocate the Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities among each of the
Transferred Assets and Transferred Equity Interests (and among the assets held by Cordis Corporation) in a manner that incorporates, reflects and is consistent with Sections 1060 and 338 of the Code and this Section 2.05(a). 

(b) Within forty-five (45) calendar days after the date of this Agreement, Seller shall deliver a reasonable draft of the Allocation (the
“Proposed Allocation”) to Buyer. Except as provided in subparagraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2.05, at the close of business on the forty-fifth (45th) calendar day after delivery of the Proposed









  
 24 

 
Allocation, the Proposed Allocation shall become binding upon Buyer and Seller, shall be set forth on Schedule 2.05(b) to the Disclosure Letter (the “Allocation
Schedule”), and shall be the Allocation. 
 (c) Buyer shall raise any objection (so long as such objection is reasonable) to the
Proposed Allocation in writing within forty-five (45) calendar days of the delivery of the Proposed Allocation. Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any differences within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of
Buyer’s objection. If Buyer and Seller reach written agreement amending the Proposed Allocation within such thirty (30) calendar day period the Proposed Allocation, as so amended, shall become binding upon Buyer and Seller, shall be set
forth in the Allocation Schedule, and shall be the Allocation. 
 (d) Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the dispute resolution
provisions set forth in Section 11.12 of this Agreement shall not apply to any dispute described in this Section 2.05. If Buyer and Seller cannot agree on the Allocation within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery of Buyer’s
objection, then all remaining disputed items shall be submitted for resolution by an independent appraisal firm mutually selected by Buyer and Seller. Buyer and Seller shall each request that the independent appraisal firm make a final determination
as to the disputed items within thirty (30) calendar days after such submission. The Proposed Allocation shall be amended in accordance with the findings of such independent appraisal firm, and the Proposed Allocation, as so amended, shall
become binding upon Buyer and Seller, shall be set forth in the Allocation Schedule, and shall be the Allocation. The fees, costs and expenses of the independent appraisal firm shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. 

(e) The Allocation shall be amended to reflect any adjustments (including those described in Section 2.04) to the Purchase Price under
this Agreement. If, after all adjustments to the Allocation are made, the Allocation with respect to the Closing Inventory of any Selling Affiliate, when expressed in the relevant local currency at the Exchange Rate used to determine the Closing
Inventory is different from the local currency net book value recorded on the statutory books for the Closing Inventory of such Selling Affiliate as of the Applicable Closing Date, then the Allocation with respect to the Closing Inventory of such
Selling Affiliate shall be adjusted so that it is equal to such local currency net book value, and the parties will agree to a corresponding upward or downward adjustment (as appropriate) elsewhere in the Allocation. 

(f) Each of Seller, Buyer and their respective Affiliates shall prepare and file its Tax Returns (including Internal Revenue Service Form
8594) on a basis consistent with the Allocation and shall take no position inconsistent with the Allocation on any Tax Return or in any proceeding before any Taxing Authority or otherwise. In the event that the Allocation is disputed by any Taxing
Authority, the party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other party hereto, and both Seller and Buyer agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to defend such Allocation in any audit or similar proceeding. 








  
 25 

 (g) In the event that the Allocation has not become final pursuant to this Section 2.05 by
the Applicable Closing: 
 (i) The allocated purchase prices included in the Proposed Allocation shall be used for the
purpose of (A) including allocated purchase prices in the Country Transfer Agreements for each Country Unit and (B) determining the amount of any payments made on the Principal Closing Date to the applicable Selling Affiliate with respect
to such Country Unit. The inclusion of such allocated purchase prices shall not be deemed to waive, amend or otherwise alter any of the rights or obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 2.05 and shall not be used for any purpose in
resolving, or result in any prejudice with respect to, any dispute with respect to the Proposed Allocation or the Allocation. 

(ii) To the extent that the amounts paid to any Selling Affiliate on the Principal Closing Date are not equal to the portion of
the Purchase Price allocated to such Selling Affiliate in the Allocation (with respect to any Selling Affiliate, the “Allocated Purchase Price”), the parties shall and shall cause their respective Affiliates to take all necessary
actions to refund, repay and redistribute as promptly as reasonably practicable any amounts paid to any Selling Affiliate in excess of such Selling Affiliate’s Allocated Purchase Price, such that, after giving effect to any such refunds,
repayments and redistributions, the amounts received by each Selling Affiliate shall be equal to such Selling Affiliate’s Allocated Purchase Price. 

SECTION 2.06. Transfer Taxes and Other Costs. (a) All Transfer Taxes imposed on the transfer of the Transferred Equity Interests
and the Transferred Assets to Buyer and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by Buyer shall be borne and paid solely by Buyer when due in compliance with applicable Transfer Tax laws; provided, however, that if Seller is required by
applicable Law to pay any such Transfer Taxes, then Seller shall pay such Transfer Taxes, and Buyer shall, subject to receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence of Seller’s payment thereof, promptly reimburse Seller, whether or not such
Transfer Taxes were correctly or legally imposed by the applicable Governmental Entity. 
 (b) Subject to Buyer providing Seller, at
Seller’s request, with a list of Buyer’s Affiliates that Buyer has designated pursuant to Section 2.02(f) to purchase Transferred Assets or Transferred Equity Interests at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the Applicable
Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer at least twenty-five (25) calendar days before the Applicable Closing Date a schedule of expected Transfer Taxes with respect to the Applicable Closing by Seller or any Selling Affiliate as reasonably
determined by Seller. Seller shall cooperate, as reasonably requested by Buyer, to minimize the amount of Transfer Taxes payable, including by claiming any available exemption or any available refund, credit or other recovery, and by executing and
filing any invoices, forms or certificates reasonably required. The parties shall provide each other with any information reasonably requested in order to comply with applicable Transfer Tax Laws, where such information is connected with the
Transfer Tax treatment or position in connection with the Transactions. The amount of any refund, credit or other recovery received or utilized by Seller of any Transfer Taxes shall be paid promptly by Seller to Buyer. 








  
 26 

 (c) Seller and Buyer shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation required to be
filed by it with respect to all Transfer Taxes, and, if required by applicable Law, the parties will, and will cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate to
minimize any Transfer Taxes described in Section 2.06(a) to the greatest extent permitted by applicable Law, including pursuant to any available exemption. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(d), the parties intend that, to the
extent permitted by applicable Law, sales of the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Agreement will be treated as a transfer of a going concern for VAT purposes. 

(d) As between Buyer and Seller, the determination of the amount of any Transfer Taxes (including whether any exemption from (or reduction in)
Transfer Taxes is available) required to be paid to a Governmental Entity with respect to the consummation of the Transactions shall be made by Seller in good faith in its sole reasonable discretion; provided, however, that if Buyer
reasonably disagrees with Seller’s determination with respect to any Transfer Tax and obtains prior to the applicable due date of the Transfer Tax (or prior to any other relevant date) a Reliance Opinion (which Reliance Opinion shall be
addressed to Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, and not to Seller, but a copy of which is provided to Seller) to support Buyer’s position (it being agreed that Seller shall reimburse Buyer for half of any cost and expense incurred in obtaining
such Reliance Opinion), then Buyer’s position shall control. Subject to the above, Seller shall control any Tax Proceeding relating to the availability of any exemption from Transfer Taxes required to be paid with respect to the consummation of
the Transactions ; provided that Seller shall provide Buyer with a timely and reasonably detailed account of each phase of such Tax Proceeding, shall consult with Buyer before taking any significant action in connection with such Tax
Proceeding, shall provide Buyer with drafts of any written materials prepared in connection with such Tax Proceeding, shall reflect any reasonable comments provided by Buyer in respect of any written materials prepared in connection with such Tax
Proceeding and shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining the prior written consent of Buyer, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 

(e) All costs and fees (other than Transfer Taxes, Seller’s legal expenses and any allocation of corporate overhead of Seller or any of
its Affiliates) associated with transferring to Buyer or one of its Affiliates the Transferred IP, the Transferred IT and marketing authorizations for the Products conveyed to Buyer at the Applicable Closing shall be borne and paid solely by Buyer
and when due; provided, however, that if any such amount shall be incurred by Seller, Buyer shall, subject to receipt of satisfactory evidence of Seller’s payment thereof, promptly reimburse Seller. 

(f) All costs and expenses (other than Transfer Taxes) associated with removing and moving any tangible Transferred Asset to a location
designated by Buyer shall be borne and paid solely by Buyer when due; provided, however, that if any such amount shall be incurred by Seller, Buyer shall, subject to receipt of satisfactory evidence of Seller’s payment thereof,
promptly reimburse Seller.

amount otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be treated for all
purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to such Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Within fifteen (15) days of the expected Applicable Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver a schedule of expected withholding
amounts to Seller. Furthermore, Buyer and Seller shall reasonably cooperate with each other to reduce the amount of withholding Taxes imposed on the payment of any amount to any Person pursuant to this Agreement and any other Transaction Document to
the extent permitted by applicable Law, including by reasonably cooperating in order to execute and file any forms or certificates reasonably required to claim an available reduced rate of, or exemption from, withholding Taxes.

SECTION 6.02. Certain Covenants Regarding the Transferred Companies. Except as otherwise required by this Agreement or permitted

 SECTION 6.03.

 SECTION 6.04. Disclosure. Seller shall give prompt notice to Buyer of (a) any notice received by Seller
subsequent to the date of this Agreement and prior to the Applicable Closing Date of (or other communication relating to, or the occurrence of), any material default under any Material Transferred Contract or Material Distribution Contract,
(b) any notice or other communication from any third party alleging that the consent of such third party is required in connection with the Transactions and (c) any effect, event, occurrence, circumstance or change that, to the knowledge
of Seller, would constitute a breach of any representation or warranty or covenant of Seller contained in this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions set forth in Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) not to be
satisfied, it being understood and agreed, however, that if Seller fails to provide notice pursuant to this Section 6.04 such failure to provide notice shall not constitute a breach of covenant for purposes of Article V or Article X. 

SECTION 6.05. Publicity. No party to this Agreement shall originate any publicity, news release or other similar public announcement,

release or other similar public announcement, except (x) each party may issue a press release (or, if the parties agree, a joint press release) in connection with the receipt of the Final Binding Offer Letter, acceptance of the Final

meetings or activities specifically related to the Transactions), (y) either party may originate any such publicity, news release or other similar public announcement as may be required by Law (including the rules and regulations of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission), listing rules or any listing or trading agreement concerning its publicly traded securities and (z) to the extent the contents of such publicity, news release or other similar public announcement have
previously been released publicly or are consistent in all material respects with materials that have previously been released (without violation of this Section 6.05); provided that in such event under clauses (x) and (y), the
party issuing same shall still be required to consult with the other party, whether or not named in such publicity, news release or other similar public announcement, a reasonable time prior to its release (to the extent practicable) to allow the
other party to comment thereon and, after its release, shall provide the other party with a copy thereof. If Buyer, based on the advice of its counsel, determines that this Agreement, or any of the other Transaction Documents, must be publicly filed
with a Governmental Entity (other 








  
 54 

 
than filings required to be made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), then Buyer, prior to making any such filing, shall provide Seller and its counsel with a redacted version of
this Agreement (and any other Transaction Document) which it intends to file, and will give due consideration to any comments provided by Seller or its counsel. 

SECTION 6.06. Commercially Reasonable Efforts; Regulatory Approvals; Access. Subject to any obligation imposed by Law, including all
anti-trust and competition Laws: 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including
Section 2.02(g), each of Seller and Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) make the Anti-Trust Filings and any other filings required by applicable Law, (ii) obtain consents, approvals (including Anti-Trust
Approvals), authorizations, qualifications and orders of Governmental Entities and other third parties and (iii) take other actions, in each case as is necessary to consummate the Transactions as soon as reasonably practical following the date
of this Agreement; provided that Seller shall have no obligation to pay money (other than customary filing and application fees typically paid by a seller or transferee) or make any concessions to obtain such consents. In addition to the
foregoing, Buyer agrees to provide such evidence as to financial capability, resources and creditworthiness as may be reasonably requested by any third party whose consent or approval is sought hereunder. Subject to appropriate confidentiality
protections, each of the parties hereto will cooperate with and furnish to the other party such necessary information and assistance as such other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. 

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, Seller and Buyer shall file the Anti-Trust Filings and any other
filings required under any applicable Laws. With respect to filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, Seller and Buyer shall make their respective filings no later than ten (10) business days following
the date hereof (unless a later date is mutually agreed between the parties). Seller and Buyer shall provide to any Governmental Entity whose consent, authorization, order or approval is required in connection with the Transactions any additional
information required under any applicable Laws or otherwise properly requested. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain early termination of any applicable waiting period, to the extent required, from the applicable
Governmental Entities. The parties also shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate by providing information reasonably requested by the other party in order to fulfill the foregoing obligations as promptly as reasonably
practicable. 
 (c) Subject to applicable Law relating to the exchange of information, Buyer and Seller and their respective
counsel shall (i) have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each shall consult or, where required by applicable Law, cooperate with the other on, any filing made with, or written









  
 55 

 
materials to be submitted to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions, (ii) promptly inform each other of any communication (or other correspondence or memoranda)
received from, or given to, any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions, (iii) consult with the other party, and consider in good faith the views of the other party, prior to entering into any agreement with any Governmental
Entity with respect to the Transactions and (iv) furnish each other with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications between them or their subsidiaries or Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity or its
respective staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Transactions. Buyer and Seller shall, to the extent practicable, provide each other and their respective counsel with advance notice of and the opportunity to participate in any in-person
discussion or meeting with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or other inquiry in connection with the Transactions and to participate in the preparation for such discussion or meeting. Buyer and Seller also agree to keep
the other fully informed about any anti-trust issues raised by any Governmental Entity. 
 (d) For purposes of this
Section 6.06, to the extent necessary to obtain the waiver or consent from any Governmental Entity required to satisfy the conditions set forth in Sections 5.01(f) or 5.02(f), as applicable, to obtain consents, approvals, authorizations,
qualifications or orders of Governmental Entities or to avoid the entry of or have lifted, vacated or terminated any Principal Closing Legal Impediment or Non-Principal Closing Legal Impediment, Buyer shall, subject to the last sentence of this
Section 6.06(d): (i) propose, negotiate, offer to commit and effect (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect), by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, and in connection with the consummation of the Transactions,
the sale, divestiture or disposition (including by licensing any intellectual property rights) of any assets of the Business; (ii) terminate or modify any existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations of the Business;
(iii) otherwise offer to take or offer to commit to take any action which it is capable of taking and, if the offer is accepted, take or commit to take such action, that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain,
any of the assets of the Business; and (iv) take promptly, in the event that any permanent or preliminary injunction or other order is entered or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered in any proceeding that would make consummation of the
Transactions unlawful or that would prevent or delay consummation of the Transactions, any and all steps (including the posting of a bond or the taking of the steps contemplated by clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (d)) necessary to
vacate, modify or suspend such injunction or order. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take any such action or do any thing to satisfy the conditions in Sections 5.01(f) and 5.02(f) on or before the date that is the six-month
anniversary of the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require Buyer or any of its Affiliates to take any action or do any thing if the
taking of such action or doing of such thing, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect on Buyer after giving effect to the Transactions (measured on a scale relative to a company the
size of the Business). 








  
 56 

 (e) Seller shall give Buyer and its accountants, legal counsel and other
representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and without undue interruption of the Business throughout the period prior to the Applicable Closing, to all of the properties, books and records (other than records relating to income
Taxes and attorney-client privileged communications and, for the avoidance of doubt, other than where access to such information is prohibited by applicable Law) relating to the Business, and will furnish, at Buyer’s expense, Buyer, its
accountants, legal counsel and other representatives during such period all such information (other than records relating to income Taxes and attorney-client privileged communications and, for the avoidance of doubt, other than where access to such
information is prohibited by applicable Law) concerning the affairs of the Business as Buyer may reasonably request; provided that this Section 6.06(e) shall not entitle Buyer or its accountants, legal counsel or other representatives to
contact any third party doing business with Seller or access the properties, books or records of any such third party, in each case without Seller’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). Buyer will hold in
confidence all information so obtained. 
 (f) From the date hereof until the Applicable Closing Date, Seller shall timely
prepare, and promptly deliver to Buyer, with respect to the Business, a statement of sales, on a monthly basis, and a statement of profit and loss, on a quarterly basis, in each case to be consistent with such financial information previously
provided to Buyer by Seller. 
 (g) Seller shall, and shall cause the Selling Affiliates and the Transferred Companies to,
use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to Buyer prior to the thirtieth (30th) day after the date hereof or as promptly as practicable thereafter each Material Distribution Contract; provided that, solely for the purposes
of this Section 6.06(g), the expected annual revenue threshold in the definition of “Material Distribution Contract” shall be deemed to be two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000). 

SECTION 6.07. Financing. (a) Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
cause its and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents and other advisors and representatives to, provide commercially reasonable cooperation in connection with the
arrangement by Buyer of bank financing and/or bond offerings for the purpose of financing the Transactions, the fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith and the other transactions contemplated hereby (the “Debt Financing”)
as may be reasonably requested by Buyer; provided that (i) such requested cooperation shall not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Seller and its Affiliates, (ii) Seller and its Affiliates shall not be required to
provide any audited or unaudited “carve-out” financial statements of the Business and (iii) Seller and its Affiliates shall not be required to provide any updates to the Financial Information. Buyer shall, promptly upon request 








  
 57 

 
by Seller, reimburse Seller for all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Seller or any of its Affiliates in connection with such cooperation. Buyer and its Affiliates shall, on a joint and several
basis, indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates from and against any Damages suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing and any information utilized in connection therewith. Seller shall have
the right to consent to the use of its and its Affiliates’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.07, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to consummate the
Transactions on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein are not contingent on any debt or equity financing (including the Debt Financing) or the receipt of the proceeds therefrom. 

SECTION 6.08. Transferred Companies Assets and Liabilities. Prior to the Applicable Closing, Seller shall take or cause to be taken,
such action as is necessary or appropriate to transfer, assign or convey (i) any assets owned or held by the Transferred Companies other than those that would constitute Transferred Assets or (ii) any liabilities or obligations of the
Transferred Companies other than those that would constitute Assumed Liabilities, in each case, to Seller or an Affiliate of Seller such that as of the Applicable Closing, (i) the assets owned or held by the Transferred Companies consist solely
of assets that would otherwise constitute Transferred Assets pursuant to clauses (i) – (xvii) and (xix) – (xxi) of Annex 2.02(a) and (ii) the liabilities and obligations of the Transferred Companies consist
solely of liabilities and obligations that would otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities pursuant to clauses (i) – (ix) of Annex 2.02(c). Prior to or following the Applicable Closing, Buyer shall provide to Seller the
necessary information and deliver such assignments, transfers, consents and other documents and instruments as may be reasonably required to permit Seller at its expense to effect and perfect the transfer of any registrations of Patents and
Trademarks that constitute Excluded Assets but which are held by a Transferred Company. 
 SECTION 6.09. Exclusivity. (a) From
the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Applicable Closing Date or termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates, the Transferred Companies and its and their respective
directors, officers or employees, or any attorney, accountant or other representative retained by any of them (collectively, “Representatives”) not to, directly or indirectly (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage
(including by way of furnishing non-public information), or take any other action designed or reasonably likely to facilitate, any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative
Proposal, (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, or assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any Person with respect to, any Alternative
Proposal or (iii) enter into or approve any agreement with respect to any Alternative Proposal. None of Seller, any of its Affiliates or any of the Transferred Companies shall release any third party from, or waive any provision of, any
confidentiality agreement with respect to the Business to which it is a party and which was entered into with respect to any potential Alternative Proposal. Seller and its Affiliates shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, with
respect to third 








  
 58 

 
parties with whom discussions or negotiations with respect to an Alternative Proposal have been terminated on or prior to the date of this Agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the
return or destruction of, in accordance with the terms of the applicable confidentiality agreement, confidential information previously furnished by Seller or any of its Affiliates, or its or their Representatives, with respect to the Business. 

(b) Seller will promptly notify Buyer orally (and then in writing within twenty-four (24) hours) after it or any of its Affiliates has
received any proposal, inquiry, offer or request relating to or constituting, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Proposal, any request for discussions or negotiations, or any request for information relating to the
Business in connection with an Alternative Proposal or a potential Alternative Proposal or for access to the properties or books and records thereof of which Seller or any of its Affiliates is or becomes aware, or any amendments to the foregoing.
Such notice to Buyer shall indicate the identity of the person making such proposal and the terms and conditions of such proposal, if any. Seller shall also promptly provide Buyer with (i) a copy of any written notice or other written
communication from any person informing Seller or any of its Affiliates that it is considering making, or has made a proposal regarding, an Alternative Proposal, (ii) a copy of any Alternative Proposal (or any amendment thereof) received by
Seller or any of its Affiliates and (iii) such other details of any such Alternative Proposal that Buyer may reasonably request. Thereafter, Seller shall promptly keep Buyer reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of any material
change to the terms of any such Alternative Proposal. 
 (c) “Alternative Proposal” means any inquiry, proposal or offer,

Transferred Company, the Transferred Assets or the Business for a Pre-Closing Tax Period (or a Straddle Period), to the extent such amendment, waiver or extension would reasonably be expected to increase Seller’s liability for Taxes under this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 63 

 (c) Refunds. 

(i) Refunds. Seller shall be entitled to retain, or receive prompt payment from Buyer or any of its subsidiaries or
Affiliates (including the Transferred Companies) of, any refund (including any credit in lieu of a refund, which credit arises as a result of an overpayment and which otherwise would have been payable in cash by the relevant Taxing Authority at the
election of the taxpayer) received or realized in cash with respect to Taxes attributable to any Transferred Company, the Transferred Assets or the Business for any Pre-Closing Tax Period (other than Transfer Taxes), including any such amounts
arising by reason of amended Tax Returns filed after the Applicable Closing Date, but only to the extent that (A) such refund (or credit) is not the result of an event that occurred after the Applicable Closing Date and does not relate to the
Prepaid Tax Amount, and (B) such refund (or credit) is not attributable to, and does not result from, a carry back or other use of any item of loss, deduction, credit or other similar item arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period or, in the case of
a refund (or credit) of Taxes for a Straddle Period, the use of any such item arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period. In connection with the foregoing, if Seller determines that any of the Transferred Companies is entitled to file or make a formal or
informal claim for a refund (to which Seller would be entitled under the first sentence of this Section 7.08(c)(i)) of Taxes (including by filing an amended Tax Return) with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, Seller shall be entitled, at
Seller’s expense, to file or make, or to request that Buyer cause the applicable Transferred Company to file or make, such formal or informal claim for refund, and Seller shall be entitled to control the prosecution of such claim for refund,
provided that Seller shall not take any action in connection therewith that would bind Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including any Transferred Company) for a Post-Closing Tax Period or otherwise adversely affect Buyer or any of its Affiliates
(including any Transferred Company). Buyer will cooperate, and cause the Transferred Companies to cooperate, with respect to such claim for refund, and will pay, or cause the relevant Transferred Company to pay, to Seller the amount (including
interest received from any Taxing Authority) of any related refund (including any credit in lieu of a refund, which credit arises as a result of an overpayment and which otherwise would have been payable in cash by the relevant Taxing Authority at
the election of the taxpayer) (to which Seller would be entitled under the first sentence of this Section 7.08(c)(i)) received or realized in cash by Buyer or any Affiliate thereof (including any Transferred Company), net of any unreimbursed
costs incurred by Buyer and its Affiliates in respect of such refund and reduced by the amount of any Taxes arising or that would arise as a result of the receipt of such refund or interest thereon, within five (5) days of receipt (or
realization in cash) thereof. Buyer and the Transferred Companies shall be entitled to retain, or receive prompt payment from Seller with respect to, any other refund, credit, offset or other similar benefit received or realized with respect to
Taxes attributable to any Transferred Company, the Transferred Assets or the Business. Notwithstanding any other provision, Buyer shall be entitled to any refund, credit or reimbursement arising from or relating to any Transfer Taxes. 








  
 64 

 (ii) For the avoidance of doubt, any Tax basis, net operating loss, credit or
other item that reduces Taxes paid or payable that may exist in any Transferred Company in a Post-Closing Tax Period or may be carried forward to a Post-Closing Tax Period shall be for the account of Buyer. 

(d) Tax Indemnification.

Companies and (ii) all Tax liabilities (which shall include any costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, attributable to such Tax liabilities) with respect to the Transferred Assets or the Business, in the case of each
of clauses (i) and (ii), other than any such Tax liabilities that are Excluded Taxes, (B) all liability for Transfer Taxes for which Buyer is responsible pursuant to Section 2.06(a), (C) all Tax liabilities (which shall include
any costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, attributable to such Tax liabilities) attributable to a Buyer Tax Act, unless such Buyer Tax Act is effected with the written consent of Seller or (D) Tax liabilities (which
shall include any costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, attributable to such Tax liabilities) attributable to any breach by Buyer or its Affiliates (including, after the Applicable Closing, any Transferred Company) of any
covenant or other agreement hereunder; 
 (v) In the case of any Straddle Period: 

(i) The periodic Taxes of the Transferred Companies and Seller and Selling Affiliates that are not based on income or receipts
(e.g., property Taxes) for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be computed based upon the ratio of the number of days in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the number of days in the entire Tax period; and 

(ii) Taxes of the Transferred Companies and Seller and Selling Affiliates for the Pre-Closing Tax Period, other than Taxes
described in Section 7.08(d)(v)(i) above, shall be computed as if such Tax period ended as of the close of business on the Applicable Closing Date and, in the case of any Taxes of the Transferred Companies and Seller and Selling









  
 65 

 
Affiliates attributable to the ownership of any equity interest in any partnership or other “flowthrough” entity, as if the Tax period of such partnership or other
“flowthrough” entity ended as of the close of business on the Applicable Closing Date.

indemnification payment made pursuant to this Section 7.08(d) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Law. Each party shall notify the other party if it receives
notice that any Taxing Authority proposes to treat any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Section 7.08(d) as other than an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, or if it otherwise determines that an indemnification
payment under this Section 7.08(d) is required by applicable Tax Law to be treated as other than an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes. 

(e) Tax Contests. 

(i) Buyer shall notify Seller within ten (10) business days of a Tax Proceeding for a Pre-Closing Tax Period with respect
to a Transferred Company, provided that the failure to so notify Seller shall not affect Seller’s indemnification obligation under Section 7.08(d) except to the extent of any material prejudice actually incurred by Seller. With
respect to any Tax Proceeding relating to (A) a Pre-Closing Tax Period with respect to a Transferred Company, the Transferred Assets or the Business (other than a Straddle Period or a Tax Proceeding with respect to a Transfer Tax) or (B) a
consolidated Tax Return of which Johnson & Johnson, Cordis Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries (other than a Transferred Company) is the common parent, Seller may choose in its sole discretion (at its expense) to control all
proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Proceeding (including selection of counsel), and, without limiting the foregoing, may, in its sole discretion, pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings,
hearings and conferences with any Taxing Authority with respect thereto, and may, in its sole discretion, either pay the applicable Tax liability and sue for a refund or contest the Tax at issue in such Tax Proceeding, provided that, to the

Business, Buyer may choose in its sole discretion (at its expense) to control all proceedings and may make all decisions taken in connection with such Tax Proceeding (including selection of counsel), and, without limiting the foregoing, may, in its
sole discretion, pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with any Taxing Authority with respect thereto, and may, in its sole discretion, either pay the applicable Tax liability and sue for a refund
or contest the Tax at issue in such Tax Proceeding, provided that, to the extent such Tax Proceeding or the resolution or settlement thereof could have an impact on Seller or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Pre-Closing Tax Period
resulting in an increase of Seller’s liability for Taxes pursuant to this Agreement, (a) Buyer shall provide Seller with a timely and reasonably detailed account of each phase of such Tax Proceeding and shall consult with Seller before
taking any significant action in connection with such Tax Proceeding and (b) Buyer shall not settle, compromise or abandon any such Tax Proceeding without obtaining the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.

right to control any Tax Proceeding described in Section 2.06(d) or Section 7.08(e)(i) if Seller fails to, or notifies Buyer in writing that Seller elects not to, defend such Tax Proceeding. 

(iii) Buyer, the Transferred Companies and each of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller and its respective
Affiliates, on the other hand, shall cooperate in contesting any Tax Proceeding, which cooperation shall include the retention and, upon request, the provision to the requesting party of records and information which are reasonably relevant to such

 67

demand or assessment, or if any such assignment or substitution would result in the dismissal of, or Seller or its Affiliates waiving any defenses or forfeiting any rights or remedies or otherwise materially prejudice Seller or its Affiliates in
respect of, any Retained Claim, then, notwithstanding Section 6.08, such Retained Claim shall not be transferred out of the Transferred Companies and Seller shall not be obligated to assign such Retained Claim or substitute itself or an

applicable Law and as soon as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) business days, after the date of this Agreement, Seller shall provide Buyer with a list on Schedule 8.01(b) to the Disclosure Letter containing an
identification number, date of hire, position, location, and base salary, wage rate and bonus opportunity (and, in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after the date of this Agreement, for sales employees, sales incentive targets, as
well as actual sales incentive paid during the prior fiscal year), outstanding equity awards (including vesting schedule and exercise price, as applicable), expatriate status and any additional information that is necessary for Buyer to establish
payroll systems or employee benefit plans as of the Transfer Time, as applicable, of each individual identified by Seller as expected to be an Employee of the Business, and Seller shall update such information periodically prior to the Applicable
Closing Date to reflect new hires, leaves of absence and employment terminations and any other material changes thereto and provide copies of such updated lists and information to Buyer. 

(c) In the event the employment of an Employee of the Business does not automatically transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates upon the occurrence
of the Applicable Closing by operation of Law or pursuant to the transfer of the Transferred Equity Interests to Buyer, (i) Seller shall take, or cause its respective Affiliates to take, all actions required in accordance with applicable Law in
respect of the transfer of employment of such Employees of the Business to Buyer or one of its Affiliates, and Seller shall encourage each Employee of the Business to accept any offers of employment pursuant to this Section 8.01(c) in its
communications with such individuals; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be interpreted as requiring Seller or any of its subsidiaries to provide any such Employee of the Business with any additional compensation
or benefits or otherwise incur any material liability; (ii) in respect of Employees of the Business who are principally employed in Mexico, such Employees of the Business will be transferred to Buyer or one of its Affiliates as of the
Applicable Closing Date through “employer substitution mechanics,” and (iii) except in respect of Employees of the Business who are principally employed in Mexico, not less than ten (10) business days prior to the Applicable
Closing, Buyer or one of its Affiliates will offer employment, effective at 11:59 P.M., local time, on the Applicable Closing 








  
 71 

 
Date (the “Transfer Time”), to such Employee of the Business in accordance with this Agreement. Offers pursuant to this Section 8.01(c) shall (A) be for a position
commensurate with the skills and experience of such Employee of the Business and at a geographic work location within fifty (50) miles of the applicable Employee of the Business’ primary work location immediately prior to the Applicable
Closing Date (or, to the extent applicable in jurisdictions other than the United States, within such lesser radius as is necessary to ensure severance is not due in connection with such relocation), and (B) otherwise comply in all respects
with applicable Law (including with respect to compensation and benefits). With respect to any Employee of the Business to whom Buyer or one of its Affiliates is required to make an offer of employment pursuant to this Section 8.01(c), and who,
as of the Applicable Closing Date, is on approved leave of absence from work with Seller or its Affiliates (each, an “Inactive Employee”), Buyer shall offer employment to such individual on the earliest practicable date following
the return of such individual to work with Seller and its Affiliates and otherwise on terms and conditions consistent with this Section 8.01; provided that such employee returns to work within one hundred eighty (180) days following
the Applicable Closing Date or such later time as required by applicable Law or the terms of the applicable Collective Bargaining Agreement upon presenting themselves for duty to the Business. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of the occurrence and
end of any such leave of absence. In the case of any Inactive Employee who becomes a Transferred Employee following the Applicable Closing Date, all references in this Agreement to (1) the Applicable Closing Date shall be deemed to be
references to the date on which such individual becomes a Transferred Employee and (2) the Transfer Time shall be deemed to be references to 11:59 P.M., local time, on the date that such individual becomes a Transferred Employee. In any
jurisdiction where the employment of an Employee of the Business can transfer automatically to Buyer and its Affiliates upon the occurrence of the Applicable Closing by operation of Law or pursuant to the transfer of the Transferred Equity Interests
to Buyer, Buyer and Seller agree to take, or cause their respective Affiliates to take, all actions required under applicable Law and all other actions as are necessary or appropriate such that the employment of such Employee of the Business will
transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates automatically as of the Transfer Time. 
 (d) Buyer or its Affiliates shall bear all the liabilities,
obligations and costs relating to, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and the Selling Affiliates from and against, any claims made by any Employee of the Business for any statutory or common law severance or other separation benefits, any
contractual or other severance or separation benefits and any other legally mandated payment obligations (including any compensation payable during a mandatory termination notice period and any payments pursuant to a Judgment of a court having
jurisdiction over the parties) and for any other claim, cost, liability or obligation (whether related to compensation, benefits or otherwise), in each case, arising out of (i) Buyer’s breach of its obligations under this Article VIII
or (ii) any claims for severance or other separation benefits in connection with the involuntary termination of employment by Buyer or its Affiliates of any Transferred Employee after the Transfer Time. Seller or its Affiliates shall bear all
the liabilities, obligations and costs relating to, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Affiliates from and against, any claims made by any Employee of the Business for any statutory or common law severance or other separation
benefits, any contractual or 








  
 72 

 
other severance or separation benefits and any other legally mandated payment obligations (including any compensation payable during a mandatory termination notice period and any payments
pursuant to a Judgment of a court having jurisdiction over the parties) and for any other claim, cost, liability or obligation (whether related to compensation, benefits or otherwise), in each case, not arising out of Buyer’s breach of its
obligations under this Article VIII or under clause (ii) above, including without limitation, any such claim that arising out of (A) the applicable Employee of the Business’ refusal to accept an offer of employment made in
compliance with this Article VIII from (or to commence employment with), or objection to the automatic transfer of employment to, Buyer or its Affiliates, and (B) any claims made by any Employee of the Business in China or other
jurisdictions for any statutory severance or other separation benefits (including statutory economic compensation and statutory compensation payable in respect of accrued but not yet taken vacation days or other paid time off for the calendar year
in which the Applicable Closing Date occurs) that arise as a result of any such employee who accepts an offer of employment from Buyer or any of its Affiliates making a request that such severance or other separation benefits be paid or provided by
Seller or any of its subsidiaries. Buyer shall not encourage any Employee of the Business regarding a request described in the immediately preceding sentence, and in the event an Employee of the Business asks Buyer a question regarding such request,
Buyer shall refer such Employee of the Business to an applicable representative of Seller with respect to such request. 
 (e) With respect
to U.S. Transferred Employees, during the Benefits Continuation Period, Buyer or its Affiliates (i) shall provide to each Transferred Employee a total compensation opportunity and employee benefits that are no less favorable, in the aggregate,
than those in effect for such Transferred Employee as of immediately prior to the Applicable Closing Date; provided that Buyer shall provide such Transferred Employee no less favorable base salary, wage rate and bonus opportunity, as
applicable, than as set forth on Schedule 8.01(b) to the Disclosure Letter; and (ii) shall provide each Transferred Employee an office within a commute of no more than 50 miles from his or her office as of immediately prior to the
Applicable Closing Date; provided that if a relocation beyond that distance is required and such Transferred Employee’s employment terminates as a result of his or her desire not to accept such a relocation, such Transferred Employee
shall receive the severance benefits at the level set forth in Section 8.01(f). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contemplated by this Agreement shall be construed as requiring either Buyer or any of its Affiliates to continue the
employment of any U.S. Transferred Employee for any period after the Applicable Closing Date; provided that such employee shall receive the severance benefits set forth in Section 8.01(f) if terminated under the circumstances described
therein. 
 (f) With respect to U.S. Transferred Employees, during the Benefits Continuation Period, in the event of a termination of any
Transferred Employee’s employment by Buyer or its Affiliates without cause (as reasonably determined by Buyer or its Affiliate), Buyer or its Affiliates shall provide severance benefits to such Transferred Employee that are no less favorable
than those severance or termination benefits applicable to such Transferred Employee as of immediately prior to the Applicable Closing Date; provided that such severance benefits shall be provided only if the Transferred Employee executes
(and does not revoke) a release of claims in favor of Seller, Buyer and their respective Affiliates in a form reasonably satisfactory to Buyer. 








  
 73 

 (g) With respect to U.S. Transferred Employees, effective from and after the Transfer Time, Buyer
or its Affiliates shall (i) recognize, for all purposes (other than benefit accrual under a defined benefit pension plan) under all plans, programs and arrangements established or maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates for the benefit of the
Transferred Employees (the “Buyer Plans”), service with Seller and the Selling Affiliates prior to the Transfer Time to the extent such service was recognized under the corresponding Listed Plan covering such Transferred Employees,
including for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit levels and accruals, in each case, except (x) where it would result in a duplication of benefits or (y) with respect to newly established Buyer Plans that do not provide credit for
past service to such similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Affiliates and in which at least a comparable number of similarly situated of employees of Buyer and its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Employees or newly hired employees)
participate, (ii) waive any preexisting condition exclusion, actively-at-work requirement or waiting period under all employee health and other welfare benefit plans established or maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates for the benefit of the
Transferred Employees, except to the extent such pre-existing condition, exclusion, requirement or waiting period would have applied to such individual under the corresponding Listed Plan, and (iii) provide full credit for any co-payments,
deductibles or similar payments made or incurred prior to the Transfer Time for the plan year in which the Applicable Closing occurs. 
 (h)
If permitted by applicable Law, Seller shall pay to the Transferred Employees (i) all accrued but unpaid vacation for periods prior to the Transfer Time, and (ii) all base salary, wages, commissions or other amounts (but not including any
annual bonuses or incentives) in respect of services performed by each Employee of the Business for Seller or its Affiliates that are earned and accrued but unpaid as of the Transfer Time, as applicable, in each case, to be paid as soon as
administratively practicable after the Transfer Time or as required by law, but in no event later than thirty (30) business days after the Transfer Time. If, under applicable Law, Seller cannot pay the amounts described in the preceding
sentence to Transferred Employees, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any such amounts that Buyer pays to such Transferred Employees. Buyer will cooperate in good faith with Transferred Employees with respect to vacation commitments purchased or
reserved by such Transferred Employees prior to the applicable Transfer Time in respect of periods occurring subsequent to such applicable Transfer Time; it being understood that any such vacation commitments ultimately honored by Buyer shall count
against the applicable Transferred Employee’s paid time off accrued during his or her service with Buyer or be unpaid. 
 (i) Subject
to Seller providing all reasonably necessary support and information in a timely manner, no later than the Applicable Closing Date, Buyer shall establish or cause to be established (or utilize existing Buyer Plans), at its own expense, all necessary
retirement, pension, employee welfare and employee benefit plans for Transferred Employees, as applicable. Effective as of the Transfer Time, each Transferred Employee shall cease to be an employee of Seller or the applicable Affiliate









  
 74 

 
and shall cease to participate in any Business Employee Benefit Plan (other than any Assumed Benefit Plan) as an active employee. Other than with respect to a government-sponsored benefit plan,
(i) Seller shall be, or shall cause its Affiliates to be, responsible for all (A) medical, vision, dental and prescription drug claims for expenses incurred by any Transferred Employee or his or her dependents, (B) claims for
short-term and long-term disability income benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee, (C) claims for group life, travel and accident, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee and
(D) claims relating to COBRA coverage attributable to “qualifying events” with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents, in each case, prior to or as of the Transfer Time and (ii) Buyer
shall be, or shall cause its Affiliates to be, responsible for all (A) medical, vision, dental and prescription drug claims for expenses incurred by any Transferred Employee or his or her dependents, (B) claims for short-term and long-term
disability income benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee, (C) claims for group life, travel and accident, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance benefits incurred by any Transferred Employee and (D) claims relating to
COBRA coverage attributable to “qualifying events” with respect to any Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents, in each case, after the Transfer Time. Except in the event of any claim for workers compensation
benefits, for purposes of this Agreement, the following claims and liabilities shall be deemed to be incurred as follows: (1) medical, vision, dental and/or prescription drug benefits (including hospital expenses), upon provision of the
services, materials or supplies comprising any such benefits and (2) short and long-term disability, life, accidental death and dismemberment and business travel accident insurance benefits, upon the death, illness, injury or accident giving
rise to such benefits. Seller and its Affiliates shall be responsible for all claims for workers compensation benefits that are incurred prior to the Transfer Time by any Transferred Employee. Buyer and its Affiliates shall be responsible for all
claims for workers compensation benefits that are incurred on or after the Transfer Time by any Transferred Employee. A claim for workers compensation benefits shall be deemed to be incurred on the date the injury giving rise to the claim occurs.

 (j) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.01 to the contrary, with respect to each Non-U.S. Transferred Employee,
during the applicable Benefits Continuation Period, or such longer period required by applicable Law, Buyer or its Affiliates shall provide to such employees terms and conditions of employment (including seniority and other service credit) that
individually, are no less than as required by applicable Law, and in the aggregate, are no less favorable than those provided by Seller and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Transfer Time and (ii) amounts (and, to the extent required by
applicable Law, types) of compensation and benefits (including severance and equity compensation benefits) that, individually, are no less than as required by applicable Law and, in the aggregate, are no less favorable than those provided by Seller
and its Affiliates immediately prior to the Transfer Time. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may satisfy its obligations pursuant to the preceding sentence by providing cash payments or other benefits in lieu of equity compensation benefits. Without
limiting the generality of Section 8.01 or Buyer’s obligations hereunder, with respect to Transferred Employees covered by Collective Bargaining Agreements, effective from and after the Transfer Time, Buyer or one of its Affiliates shall
comply with applicable Law concerning Collective Bargaining Agreements in the context of this Agreement. 








  
 75 

 (k) If any Employee of the Business requires a work permit or employment pass or other legal or
regulatory approval for his or her employment with Buyer or its Affiliates, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such permit, pass or other approval to be obtained and in effect prior
to the Transfer Time (and Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to transfer any such permit, pass or other approval to Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and to cooperate with Buyer
or its applicable Affiliate with respect to any ongoing approval processes). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable Law or any Collective Bargaining Agreement, in the event an applicable work permit for an Employee of
the Business is not in place with Buyer or its Affiliate as of the Transfer Time, such Employee of the Business shall be treated as an Inactive Employee hereunder; provided, however, that Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to,
continue to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the applicable work permit; provided, further, that Seller shall not be obligated to provide for the services of such Employee of the Business to be made available to
Buyer or any substitute for such services. 
 (l) As of the Transfer Time, Seller shall provide to Buyer and its Affiliates copies of all
employment records for each Transferred Employee required to be provided to Buyer and its Affiliates under applicable Law or as necessary for Buyer to establish payroll systems or employee benefit plans as of the Transfer Time. Seller shall be
permitted to retain copies of such employment records, except where prohibited by applicable Law. Buyer and its Affiliates shall ensure that all such records are used only in connection with the employment of such Transferred Employee or as
otherwise permitted by applicable Law. 
 (m) To the extent applicable, the parties hereto acknowledge the application of the European
Council Directive of March 12, 2001 (2001/23/EC) (the “Directive”), relating to the safeguarding of employees’ rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or parts of businesses and any country
legislation implementing the Directive and any other similar Law (collectively, the “Transfer Regulations”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, comply with the
Transfer Regulations to the extent applicable. 
 (n) Seller and its Affiliates shall bear all the liabilities, costs and obligations
relating to any claim or potential claim that is a benefit payable to a Transferred Employee under any Major Market Plan that is a defined benefit plan in the United Kingdom has transferred to and is a liability of Buyer or its Affiliates (including
as a result of the transfer of the Transferred Equity Interests to Buyer and including, for the avoidance of doubt, all such liabilities, contingent or otherwise, that exist as of the Applicable Closing Date). 








  
 76 

 (o) In the United States, pursuant to IRS Revenue Procedure 2004-53, Buyer and Seller and
their respective Affiliates shall apply the “standard” method for purposes of employee payroll reporting with respect to any Employee of the Business. 

(p) The provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to any Employee of the Business are included for the sole benefit of the
respective parties hereto and shall not create any right in any other person, including any Employee of the Business (or dependent or beneficiary of any of the foregoing). Nothing herein shall be deemed an amendment of any plan providing benefits to
any Employee of the Business or of any other employee benefit plan. 
 (q) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
references to the “Applicable Closing” and “Applicable Closing Date” in this Section 8.01 shall be deemed to mean, with respect to (i) any Employee of the Business at the Juarez Facility (as defined in the Transition
Manufacturing Services Agreement) who works on a production line used to manufacture the Products (the “Juarez Line Employees”), the time and date, as applicable, of the Line Transfer in respect of such production line and
(ii) any other Employee of the Business at the Juarez Facility (a “Juarez Non-Line Employee”, and together with the Juarez Line Employees, the “Juarez Employees”), the time and date, as applicable, of the Non-Line
Role Transfer in respect of such Juarez Non-Line Employee, each as set forth (and defined) in Schedule 7.11 to the Disclosure Letter, and in each case to the extent permitted by and in accordance with applicable Law. Seller and Buyer shall cause the
employment of each Juarez Employee to transfer from Seller and its Affiliates to Buyer and its Affiliates through “employer substitution mechanics” as required by Mexican Federal Labor Law at the applicable time set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence in accordance with this Section 8.01 and through the delivery to each of such Juarez Employees of a notice of employer substitution to be furnished to them by Seller and Buyer (directly or through the local
Conciliation and Arbitration Board) on the Applicable Closing Date.

breach; (b) at any time prior to the Principal Closing, if any of the conditions 








  
 77 

 
precedent to the performance of Buyer’s obligations at the Principal Closing shall have become incapable of fulfillment by the Outside Date; or (c) if the Principal Closing shall not
have occurred on or before the Outside Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer may only terminate this Agreement pursuant to the preceding clauses (a), (b) or (c) if at the time of termination Buyer is not in

 SECTION 9.02. Seller
Termination. This Agreement may be terminated by Seller: (a) at any time prior to the Principal Closing, if (i) Buyer shall have failed to comply, in any material respect, with any of Buyer’s covenants or agreements contained in
this Agreement or (ii) any one or more of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement shall prove to have been inaccurate in any material respect when made and, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), such failure

further force and effect, with no liability on the part of any party to this Agreement (or any of their respective former, current or future general or limited partners, stockholders, managers, members, directors, officers, Affiliates or agents),
except that the provisions of this Section 9.03, Section 9.04 and Article XI will survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for Damages

SECTION 9.04. Buyer Termination Fee. (a) In the event that (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to
(A) Section 9.01(c) or 9.02(c) and, at the time of such termination, any of the conditions to the Principal Closing set forth in Section 5.01(e) (if such Principal Closing Legal Impediment giving rise to such termination is in respect
of an Anti-Trust Approval in any of the jurisdictions specified on Schedule 5.01(f) to the Disclosure Letter) or 5.01(f) shall not have been satisfied or (B) pursuant to Section 9.01(b) or 9.02(b) (as a result of a Principal Closing
Legal Impediment in respect of an Anti-Trust Approval in any of the jurisdictions specified on Schedule 5.01(f) to the Disclosure Letter or the inability of the condition in Section 5.01(f) to be satisfied), (ii) the failure of one
or more of such conditions giving 








  
 78 

 
rise to such termination is caused by the failure of Buyer to sell, divest or dispose (including by licensing any intellectual property rights) of any assets or businesses of Buyer or any of its
Affiliates (or equity interests held by Buyer or any of its Affiliates in entities with assets or businesses) under circumstances in which Buyer would have been required to sell, divest or dispose of any assets of the Business pursuant to

the Disclosure Letter, (y) the condition in Section 5.01(f) and (z) the condition in Section 5.01(j) if the failure of such condition to be satisfied is solely the result of the failure to obtain the requisite Anti-Trust Approval
in the applicable jurisdiction or the existence of a Principal Closing Legal Impediment in respect of an Anti-Trust Approval in the applicable jurisdiction), then Buyer shall pay to Seller a termination fee of thirty eight million, eight hundred
eighty thousand dollars ($38,880,000) in cash (the “Buyer Termination Fee”).

transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller. 
 (c) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the
agreement contained in this Section 9.04 is an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without this agreement, Seller would not enter into this Agreement; accordingly, if Buyer fails promptly to pay any amount due pursuant to this

in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the Buyer Termination Fee from the date such payment was required to be made until the date of payment at the prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in effect on the date such

this Article X shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of the fact that, based on any facts or circumstances known, or that should have been known, to Seller, Buyer or any other Indemnitee, including from any investigation made by or
on behalf of such Indemnitee, the information provided in the Management Presentation, the Data Room or given in writing to such Indemnitee prior to the date of this Agreement (except, for the avoidance of doubt, any disclosure of any fact or item
in any portion to the Disclosure Letter), such Indemnitee or any of its representatives knew or should have known that any representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate. 

SECTION 10.05. Claims. Any Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee claiming it may be entitled to indemnification under this
Article X (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give prompt written notice to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”) of each matter, action, cause of action, claim, demand, proceeding, assessment, fact or other









  
 81 

 
circumstances upon which a claim for indemnification (a “Claim”) hereunder may be based. Such notice shall contain, with respect to each Claim and only to the extent known to
such Indemnified Party, such facts and information as are then reasonably available, including the estimated amount of Damages and the specific basis for indemnification hereunder. Failure to give prompt notice of a Claim hereunder shall not affect
the Indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. 
 SECTION
10.06. Defense of Actions. The Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s option and expense, to assume the complete defense of any Claim by any third party within thirty (30) calendar days of
receipt of notice of such Claim by the Indemnifying Party, with full authority to conduct such defense, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, and to settle or otherwise dispose of
the same and the Indemnified Party will reasonably cooperate in such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party will (a) permit the Indemnified Party to participate in such defense, settlement or disposal through counsel chosen by the
Indemnified Party (provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid by such Indemnified Party) and (b) not, in defense of any such Claim, except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to the entry of
any Judgment or enter into any settlement (i) which provides for any relief other than the payment of monetary damages, (ii) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the third-party claimant to the Indemnified
Party of a release from all liability in respect thereof and/or (iii) which includes any admission of wrongdoing or misconduct by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of any third-party Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall not enter into any settlement of such Claim for the payment of monetary damages unless (A) the Indemnified Party consents in writing to such settlement or (B) the Indemnifying Party confirms in writing to the
Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for indemnifying the Indemnified Party for the Damages resulting from such Claim, to the extent provided in (and subject to the parameters of) this Article X. The Indemnifying
Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any third-party Claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party if such third-party Claim (x) seeks an injunction or other equitable or non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party
(other than equitable or non-monetary relief that is incidental to monetary damages as the primary relief sought) and not also against the Indemnifying Party or (y) is related to or otherwise arises in connection with any criminal matter, in
which case the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to participate in such defense with its own counsel and at its own expense. Notwithstanding an election by the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of
any third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ one separate co-counsel and to participate in the defense in such action or proceeding, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such
separate counsel, if, based on advice from counsel, there exists any actual or potential conflict of interest between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of the third-party Claim. In any event, the
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party and their respective counsel shall cooperate in the defense of any third-party Claim subject to this Article X and keep each other informed of all significant 








  
 82 

 
developments relating to any such third-party Claim, and provide copies of all relevant correspondence and documentation relating thereto. In all circumstances, the Indemnified Party will not
settle any Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 
 SECTION
10.07. Limitation, Exclusivity, No Duplicate Recovery. No Claim for indemnification for a breach of any representation or warranty shall be made or have any validity unless the Indemnified Party shall have given written notice of such Claim
to the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration of the applicable representation or warranty pursuant to Section 10.01. This Article X, Section 6.07(a), Section 7.01(b), Section 7.08(d), Section 8.01(d) and
Section 8.01(q) provide the exclusive means by which a party may assert and remedy claims for monetary relief pursuant to this Agreement following the Principal Closing Date, including any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or
agreement contained in this Agreement, and Section 11.12 provides the exclusive means by which a party may bring actions against the other party under this Agreement. With respect to any Damages arising under this Agreement, Buyer agrees that
it shall only seek such Damages from Seller and the Selling Affiliates, and Buyer hereby waives the right to seek Damages from or equitable remedies, such as injunctive relief, against any Affiliate of Seller (other than the Selling Affiliates) or
any director, officer or employee of Seller (or any of its Affiliates); provided that such limitations shall not apply in connection with claims for successor liability or fraudulent conveyance. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification under this Article X with respect to any matter to the extent that such matter was reflected in the calculation of the adjustment to the Purchase
Price, if any, pursuant to Section 2.04. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification obligations of Buyer and Seller in respect of the allocation of Assumed Liabilities and Excluded Liabilities shall not govern the allocation of
responsibility for liabilities between Buyer and Seller and their respective Affiliates in respect of any future commercial arrangements unrelated to this Agreement between the parties, such matters being addressed in the terms thereof. 

SECTION 10.08. Calculation of Damages. Except as otherwise provided in this Article X, in any case where the Indemnified Party
subsequently recovers from third parties any amount in respect of a matter with respect to which an Indemnifying Party has indemnified it pursuant to this Article X, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Indemnifying Party the
amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the full amount of the expenses incurred by it in procuring such recovery), solely to avoid duplicative recovery for the same Damage, but not in excess of any amount previously so paid by the
Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in respect of such matter. 
 SECTION 10.09. Tax Treatment of Indemnity
Payments. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless there is no reasonable basis for doing so under the applicable Tax Law. 








  
 83 

 ARTICLE XI 

Miscellaneous 
 SECTION
11.01. No Additional Representations. Buyer is relying, in addition to the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, on its own investigation, examination and
valuation of the Business, including the Transferred Assets, in effecting the transactions covered by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Buyer is purchasing the Transferred Assets based on the results of its inspections and
investigations and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, and not on any representation or warranty of Seller or any of its Affiliates not expressly set forth in
this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents. 
 SECTION 11.02. Financial Information and Projections. In connection with
Buyer’s investigation of the Business, Buyer has received from Seller various forward-looking statements regarding the Business (including the estimates, assumptions, projections, forecasts and plans furnished to it) (the
“Forward-Looking Statements”). Buyer acknowledges and agrees (i) there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make the Forward-Looking Statements; (ii) Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties; and (iii) that
Seller makes no representation or warranty with respect to any Forward-Looking Statement. 
 SECTION 11.03. To the knowledge.
“To the knowledge of Seller” or other references to the knowledge or awareness of Seller or its Affiliates means the actual knowledge of those individuals set forth on Schedule 11.03(a) to the Disclosure Letter. “To the
knowledge of Buyer” or other references to the knowledge or awareness of Buyer or its Affiliates means the actual knowledge of those individuals set forth on Schedule 11.03(b) to the Disclosure Letter. 

SECTION 11.04. Waivers. At any time and from time to time prior to the Applicable Closing, the parties hereto may by written agreement
signed by both parties, (a) extend the time for, or waive in whole or in part, the performance of any obligation of any party hereto under this Agreement, (b) waive any inaccuracy in any representation, warranty or statement of any party
hereto or (c) waive any condition or compliance with any covenant contained in this Agreement. The failure of a party hereto to require performance of any provision hereof at any time shall in no manner affect such party’s right at a later
time to enforce such provision. No waiver in any one or more instances shall be deemed to be a further or continuing waiver of any such condition or breach in other instances or a waiver of any other condition or breach of any other term, covenant,
representation or warranty. 
 SECTION 11.05. Modifications and Amendments. This Agreement shall not be altered or otherwise amended
except pursuant to an instrument in writing executed and delivered by each of the parties hereto.

 SECTION 11.06. Assignability, Beneficiaries, Governing Law and Enforcement. (a) This
Agreement and the rights and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns, but this Agreement shall not be assignable by either party hereto
without the express written consent of the other party hereto, which will not be unreasonably withheld; provided that, without such consent, either party may assign its rights and obligations hereunder (in whole but not in part) to an
Affiliate at any time (but no such assignment shall relieve such assigning party of its obligations under this Agreement), or to a third party in connection with a sale or transfer (by means of a merger, stock sale or otherwise) of all or
substantially all of such party’s business. Other than as explicitly set forth herein, including in Sections 10.02 and 10.03, nothing contained herein is intended to confer upon any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement and
their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of New York without reference to the choice of law doctrine of such state. 

(b) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law if any of the
provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and
to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement without proof of actual damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party further agrees that (i) no other party
hereto or any other Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 11.06, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any
right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument and (ii) it will not oppose the granting of such remedy. 

SECTION 11.07. Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other communication to be given hereunder by either party to the other
party shall be in writing and delivered personally, or sent by postpaid registered or certified mail, or by email (provided confirmation of email receipt is obtained):
