requirement that post-market clinical trials be conducted will not by itself constitute a material and adverse effect for this purpose), and (ii) BSC has at least 3,500 units of TargetTM Detachable Coils in inventory that comply with, and are available to be delivered pursuant to, the terms of the Supply

 (xiv) agree to take any of the actions specified in this
Section 5.01(b), except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

shall, and shall cause its officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, accountants and counsel to, (i) afford the Purchaser and its officers, employees and authorized agents and representatives reasonable access to the offices,
properties and books and records of BSC and the Sellers (to the extent relating to the Business) and (ii) furnish to the officers, employees, and authorized agents and representatives of the Purchaser such additional financial and operating

Site, provided that such assessment shall not include any sampling or testing of any soil, groundwater, air or other environmental media, or building material, without the express written consent of BSC, such consent to be withheld at the sole
discretion of BSC); provided that any such access or furnishing of information shall be conducted at the Purchaser’s expense, during normal business hours, under the supervision of BSC’s personnel and in such a manner as not to
unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, BSC shall not be required to disclose any information to the Purchaser if such disclosure would be reasonably likely to,
(i) jeopardize any attorney-client or other legal privilege (provided that BSC shall, and shall cause the Sellers to, use commercially reasonable efforts to put in place an arrangement to permit such disclosure without loss of attorney-client
privilege) or (ii) contravene any applicable Laws, fiduciary duty or binding agreement entered into prior to the date hereof (provided that BSC shall, and shall cause the Sellers to, use commercially reasonable efforts to put in place an
arrangement to permit such disclosure without violating such Law, duty or agreement). 
 (b) In order to
facilitate the resolution of any claims made against or incurred by BSC or the Sellers relating to the Business or for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of seven years after the Closing or the expiration of the relevant period for the
statutes of limitations, the Purchaser shall (i) retain the books and records relating to the Business relating to periods prior to the Closing, and (ii) upon reasonable notice, afford the officers, employees, agents and representatives of
BSC or the Sellers reasonable access (including the right to make, at BSC’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to such books and records; provided that the Purchaser shall notify BSC at least 20 Business Days in advance
of destroying any such books and records in order to provide BSC the opportunity to copy such books and records in accordance with this Section 5.02(b). 
 (c) In order to facilitate the resolution of any claims made by or against or incurred by the Purchaser relating to the Business or for any other reasonable purpose, for a period of seven years after the
Closing or the expiration of the relevant period for the statutes of limitations, BSC shall (i) retain the books and records relating to the Business relating to periods prior to the Closing which shall not otherwise have been delivered to the
Purchaser and (ii) upon reasonable notice, afford the officers, employees, agents and representatives of the Purchaser

reasonable access (including the right to make, at the Purchaser’s expense, photocopies), during normal business hours, to such books and records; provided that BSC shall notify the
Purchaser at least 20 Business Days in advance of destroying any such books and records in order to provide the Purchaser the opportunity to copy such books and records in accordance with this Section 5.02(c). 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 5.02 shall not apply to Tax Returns and
related information (that are exclusively addressed in Section 5.14). 
 Section 5.03 Confidentiality.
(a) The terms of the letter agreement dated as of April 5, 2010 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) between BSC and the Purchaser are hereby incorporated herein by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until
the Closing, at which time such Confidentiality Agreement and the obligations of the Purchaser under this Section 5.03 shall terminate; provided that the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate only in respect of that portion of the
Evaluation Material (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) relating to the Business. If this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect.

 (b) Nothing provided to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.02(a) shall in any way amend or diminish the
Purchaser’s obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that any Evaluation Material provided to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 5.02(a) or otherwise by BSC, the Sellers or any officer,
director, employee, agent, representative, accountant or counsel thereof shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement. 
 Section 5.04 Regulatory and Other Authorizations. (a) Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain all authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of all
Governmental Authorities and officials that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations pursuant to, this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and will cooperate fully with the other party
in promptly seeking to obtain all such authorizations, consents, orders and approvals, including cooperation to enable the Purchaser to obtain, to the extent not included in the Purchased Assets, all material Permits and Registrations necessary for
the operation of the Business as currently conducted and as currently proposed to be conducted and the ownership of the Purchased Assets. Each party hereto agrees to make promptly (but in no event later than ten Business Days of the date hereof) its
respective filing, if necessary, pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Authorities any additional information and documentary
material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act. Each party hereto agrees to make as promptly as practicable its respective filings and notifications, if any, under any other applicable antitrust, competition, or trade regulation Law
(together with the HSR Act, the “Antitrust Laws”), to supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Authorities any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the applicable
Antitrust Law and 

  
 55 









 
not to enter into any transaction prior to the Closing that would reasonably be expected to make it more difficult, or increase the time required, to obtain any necessary consents or approvals
under such Laws. 
 (b) Each party shall have the right to review in advance, and, to the extent reasonably
practicable, each will consult the other on, all information relating to the other and each of their respective Affiliates that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any Governmental Authority in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided that materials may be redacted (x) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Purchased Assets, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and
(z) as necessary to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns. 

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties agree to use their reasonable best efforts to avoid or
eliminate each and every impediment under any Antitrust Law that may be asserted by any antitrust or competition Governmental Authority or any other party so as to enable the parties hereto to close the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly
as practicable, and in any event prior to the End Date. In addition, the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to defend through litigation on the merits any claim asserted in court by any party in order to avoid entry of, or to have
vacated or terminated, any decree, order or judgment (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) that would prevent the Closing prior to the End Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with the receipt of
any necessary approvals under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to divest or hold separate any material assets or business. 

(d) Each party to this Agreement shall promptly notify the other party of any communication it or any of its Affiliates
receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and permit the other party to review in advance (and to consider any comments made by the other party in relation to) any proposed communication by
such party to any Governmental Authority relating to such matters. Neither party to this Agreement shall participate in or agree to participate in any substantive meeting, telephone call or discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of
any filings, investigation (including any settlement of the investigation), litigation or other inquiry relating to such matters unless it consults with the other party in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives
the other party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, telephone call or discussion. The parties to this Agreement will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance
as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing and in seeking early termination of any applicable waiting periods, including under the HSR Act. Each party to this Agreement will provide the outside legal counsel for the
other party with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; provided that materials may be 

  
 56 









 
redacted (x) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Purchased Assets, (y) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements, and (z) as necessary to address
reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns. 
 (e) Each party to this Agreement
shall (i) subject to Section 5.04(d) above, respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any inquiries or requests for additional information and documentary material received from any Governmental Authority in connection with any
antitrust or competition matters related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) not extend any waiting period or agree to refile under the HSR Act (except with the prior written consent of the other party
hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) not enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority agreeing not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 5.05 Consents. (a) Each party hereto agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any
consents, approvals and authorizations not contemplated by Section 5.04 that may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties further
agree as set forth in Schedule 5.05. 
 (b) Each party hereto agrees that, in the event that any consent,
approval or authorization necessary to preserve for the Business any right or benefit under any Contract to which BSC or any Seller is a party is not obtained prior to the Closing, BSC will, and will cause the Sellers to, subsequent to the Closing,
cooperate with the Purchaser in attempting to obtain such consent, approval or authorization as promptly thereafter as practicable. If such consent, approval or authorization cannot be obtained, BSC shall, and shall cause the Sellers to, use their
commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Purchaser with the rights and benefits of the affected Contract for the term of such Contract, and, if BSC and the Sellers provide such rights and benefits, the Purchaser, as the case may be, shall
assume the obligations and burdens thereunder to the same extent provided in Schedule 2.02(a)(i) in respect of Transferred Contracts and to the extent the obligations and burdens are not substantially different than the obligations and burdens on
BSC or Sellers under such Contract as of the Closing Date and do not include any Excluded Liabilities set forth in Sections 2.02(b)(i) through (xiv). 
 Section 5.06 Retained Names and Marks. (a) The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that all right, title and interest in and to the “BOSTON SCIENTIFIC”, “BSCI” and
“BSC” names, together with all names that resemble the foregoing so as to be likely to cause confusion or mistake or to deceive, and all trademarks, service marks, Internet domain names, tag lines, logos, trade names, trade dress,
packaging designs, media branding designs, company names and other identifiers of source or goodwill containing or incorporating any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Retained Names and Marks”) shall be retained by BSC or any of
its Affiliates, and that, except as expressly provided below, any and all right of the Purchaser to use the Retained Names and Marks hereunder shall terminate as of the Closing and shall immediately revert to BSC, along with any and all goodwill
associated therewith. The Purchaser 

  
 57 









 
further acknowledges that it is not acquiring any rights to use the Retained Names and Marks, except as expressly provided herein. 

(b) After the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall be entitled to use, solely in connection with the operation of the
Business as operated in all material respects immediately prior to the Closing, all of its existing stocks of signs, letterheads, invoice stock, advertisements and promotional materials, inventory, packaging and other documents and materials
(“Existing Stock”) containing the Retained Names and Marks, provided that the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to remove, or cease using the Retained Names and Marks (or in the case of advertisements, promotional
materials, inventory and packaging, over-label or re-sticker such Existing Stock so as to conceal such Retained Names and Marks) as promptly as practicable after the Closing. After the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (or until
such Existing Stock is exhausted in the case of the inventory of any Product for which the Retained Names and Marks are embedded in such Product as part of the manufacturing process and not reasonably capable of being stickered or labeled), the
Purchaser shall have no right to use the Retained Names and Marks hereunder and shall have removed or obliterated all Retained Names and Marks from such Existing Stock or ceased using such Existing Stock (or in the case of advertisements,
promotional materials, inventory and packaging, shall have over-labeled or re-stickered such Existing Stock so as to conceal such Retained Names and Marks). 
 (c) Except as expressly provided in this Section 5.06, no other right to use the Retained Names and Marks is granted by BSC to the Purchaser or its Affiliates whether by implication or otherwise, and
nothing hereunder permits the Purchaser or its Affiliates to use the Retained Names and Marks in any manner other than in connection with Existing Stock. The Purchaser shall ensure that all its uses of the Retained Names and Marks as provided in
this Section 5.06 shall be only with respect to goods and services of a level of quality commensurate with the quality of goods and services with respect to which the Retained Names and Marks were used in the Business prior to the Closing. Any
and all goodwill generated by the use of the Retained Names and Marks under this Section 5.06 shall inure solely to the benefit of BSC. The Purchaser or its Affiliates shall not use the Retained Names and Marks hereunder in any manner that may
damage or tarnish the reputation of BSC or the goodwill associated with the Retained Names and Marks. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.06 shall preclude the Purchaser and its Affiliates from keeping records and other
historical or archived documents containing or referencing the Retained Names and Marks or referring to the historical fact that the Business was previously conducted under the Retained Names and Marks, provided that with respect to any such
reference, the Purchaser shall not use the Retained Names and Marks to promote any products or services and the Purchaser shall make explicit that the Business is no longer affiliated with BSC, the Sellers or any of their Affiliates. 

(d) The Purchaser agrees that BSC shall have no responsibility for claims by third parties arising out of, or relating to,
the use by the Purchaser of any Retained Names and Marks after the Closing, except as provided under Article VIII. In addition to any and all other available remedies, and except as provided pursuant to Article VIII, the Purchaser shall indemnify
and hold harmless BSC and its Affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees,

agents, successors and assigns, from and against any and all such claims that may arise out of the use of the Retained Names and Marks by the Purchaser (i) in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Section 5.06, other than such claims that the Retained Names and Marks infringe the Intellectual Property rights of any third party, or (ii) in violation of or outside the scope permitted by this Section 5.06.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Purchaser hereby acknowledges that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.06, BSC, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled

any fact, change, condition, circumstance or occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event of which it is aware that will or is reasonably likely to result in any breach of a representation or warranty or covenant of such party, which breach would
reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VII of this Agreement becoming incapable of being satisfied. The delivery of notice pursuant to this Section 5.07 shall not limit or otherwise affect the
remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice or the representations or warranties of the parties or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereto. 
 Section 5.08 Bulk Transfer Laws. Each party hereby waives compliance by the other parties with any applicable bulk sale or bulk transfer laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the

prior written consent of the Purchaser or except as expressly provided in any Ancillary Agreement, for a period of 18 months from the applicable Employee Transfer Date, directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire any Transferred Employee
whose employment was transferred as of such Employee Transfer Date; provided that (i) BSC and its Affiliates are not prohibited from employing any such person who contacts BSC or any such Affiliate on his or her own initiative and

 59 









 (b) The Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, without
the prior written consent of BSC or except as expressly provided in any Ancillary Agreement, for a period of (x) except as otherwise provided in clause (y) below, 18 months from the Closing Date in the case of clause (I) below and 12

(II) is recommended as a potential employee of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (who, when hired, would be classified as a Manager or above in the Purchaser’s human resources system) by any of the individuals who received a Special
Retention Bonus Program Participation Notice as described in Section 6.03 of the Disclosure Schedule, to the individual with responsibility for hiring decisions on behalf of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or (y) 18 months from the
Cork Manufacturing Transfer Date, the Fremont Manufacturing Transfer Date or the West Valley Manufacturing Transfer Date (as applicable), directly or indirectly, solicit for employment or hire any individual (other than the Transferred Employees)
who (A) is employed in the Cork Facility or the Fremont manufacturing facility by BSC or any of its Affiliates as of the Cork Manufacturing Transfer Date or the Fremont Manufacturing Transfer Date, respectively, or (B) was employed in the
West Valley Facility prior to the West Valley Manufacturing Transfer Date and is employed elsewhere by BSC or any of its Affiliates as of the West Valley Manufacturing Transfer Date; provided that (i) the Purchaser and its Affiliates are
not prohibited from employing any such person who contacts the Purchaser or any such Affiliate on his or her own initiative and without any direct or indirect solicitation by the Purchaser or such Affiliate, and (ii) the term “solicit for
employment” or “solicitation” shall not be deemed to include general solicitations of employment not specifically directed toward any such person. 
 Section 5.11 Non-Competition. (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in any of the Ancillary Agreements, for a period of three years after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall
not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the world, use in the Restricted Areas, except in those Restricted Areas described in clauses (d), (f) and (h) of the definition of Restricted Areas, any of
(i) the products set forth on Schedules A through C to the Technology Transfer Agreement, including as improved during such three year period, (ii) the Transferred Intellectual Property, (iii) the Intellectual Property provided under
the Transferred IP Agreements or (iv) the Transferred Products Know-how (which, as used in this Section 5.11(a), has the meaning assigned to it in the Technology Transfer Agreement) licensed under the Technology Transfer Agreement.

 (b) Except as otherwise specifically provided in any of the Ancillary Agreements, for either (x) a period
of five years after the Closing Date or (y) a period of three years after the last Facility Transfer Date, whichever is longer, BSC shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, anywhere in the world, engage in the
Business or, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, directly or indirectly, own an interest in, manage, operate, join, control or participate in or be connected with, as a member, agent, partner, stockholder or investor, any Person
anywhere that engages in the Business; provided that, for the purposes of this Section 5.11(b), (i) the ownership of securities having no more than five percent 

  
 60 









 
of the outstanding voting power of any such Person which are listed on any national securities exchange shall not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 5.11(b) as long as BSC and its
Affiliates have no other connection or relationship with such Person, (ii) the ownership of no more than ten (10) percent of the outstanding ownership interest in any fund which invests in, manages or operates such Person shall not be
deemed to be in violation of this Section 5.11(b) so long as (A) the principal purpose of such fund is not to make investments in Persons that engage in the Business, and (B) BSC or the Affiliate thereof owning such interest does not
control or exercise any influence over such Person, and (ii) BSC and its Affiliates shall not be prohibited from acquiring shares of capital stock or assets of any Person (an “Acquired Business”) that has operations that would
otherwise be restricted under this Section 5.11(b) or from continuing to operate such Acquired Business if (A) the primary purpose or effect of such acquisition shall not be for BSC or its Affiliates to engage in the Business, (B) the
Acquired Business is not primarily engaged in any business that engages in the Business, and (C) either (x) the annual net revenues of the portion of the Acquired Business that engages in the Business do not exceed $30 million for the most
recently completed fiscal year of the Acquired Business prior to such acquisition or (y) if the annual net revenues of the portion of the Acquired Business that engages in the Business exceed $30 million for the most recently completed fiscal
year or in any twelve (12) month period ending after the Closing Date (but prior to the expiration of the period set forth in the preceding sentence), BSC and its Affiliates shall sell or otherwise dispose of that portion of the Acquired
Business that engages in the Business no later than twelve (12) months after either the date of such acquisition or the last day of the last month of the twelve month period in which the aggregate net revenues of the portion of the Acquired
Business that engaged in the Business exceeded $30 million, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Section 5.11(b) shall apply to any Person or its Affiliates (other than BSC and its Affiliates prior to the
date of acquisition (and their respective assets however held)) that acquires a majority of the capital stock of BSC and that prior to such acquisition already was engaged in the Business. 

(c) If any covenant in this Section 5.11 is found to be invalid, void or unenforceable in any situation in any
jurisdiction by a final determination of a court or any other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, the parties agree that: (i) such determination will not affect the validity or enforceability of (A) the offending term or
provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction or (B) the remaining terms and provisions of this Section 5.11 in any situation in any jurisdiction; (ii) the offending term or provision will be reformed rather than
voided and the court or Governmental Authority making such determination will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographical area of any invalid or unenforceable term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any
invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable provision, in order to render the restrictive covenants set forth in
this Section 5.11 enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law; and (iii) the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 5.11 will be enforceable as so modified. 

(d) Nothing in this Section 5.11 shall prevent Purchaser or its Affiliates from reprocessing any medical device for
any purpose for use in any field; provided that the 

  
 61 









 
foregoing shall not permit the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to market or promote any Product described in clause (i) of Section 5.11(a) in a manner that violates
Section 5.11(a). 
 Section 5.12 Collection of Accounts Receivables; Inventory. 

(a) To the extent any amounts with respect to Accounts Receivable are received by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates
that arise from the conduct of the Business prior to 11:59 pm on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date or by BSC or any of its Affiliates that arise from the conduct of the Business after such time, the Purchaser or BSC, as the case may be,
shall promptly remit such amounts to the other. 
 (b) BSC covenants and agrees that the value of gross finished
goods inventory included in the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date, determined in a manner consistent with the Unaudited Special Purpose Financial Statements, shall not be less than the amount set forth on Schedule 5.12(b). 

Section 5.13 Further Action. The parties hereto shall use all reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all
appropriate action, to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law, the Transferred Contracts or otherwise, and to execute and deliver such documents and other papers, as may be required to carry out the
provisions of this Agreement and consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. 
 Section 5.14 Tax Cooperation and Exchange of Information. BSC and the Purchaser will provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of
the other in filing any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining any liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes or participating in or conducting any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes relating to this
Agreement, the Purchased Assets or the Business. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules and related work papers and documents relating to
rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities; provided that in no event shall BSC or the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates be required to provide access to or copies of any income Tax Returns of BSC, the Purchaser, or
any such Affiliate including the Sellers. BSC and the Purchaser will make themselves (and their respective employees) available, on a mutually convenient basis, to provide explanations of any documents or information provided under this
Section 5.14. Each of BSC and the Purchaser will retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers and all material records or other documents in its possession (or in the possession of its Affiliates) relating to Tax matters relevant to the
Purchased Assets for the taxable period first ending after the Closing and for all prior taxable periods until the later of (i) the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents
relate, without regard to extensions, or (ii) six years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. After such time, before BSC or the Purchaser shall dispose of any such documents in its possession (or in the possession of
its Affiliates), the other party shall be given the opportunity, after 90 days’ prior written notice, to remove and retain all or any part of such documents as such 

  
 62 









 
other party may select (at such other party’s expense). Any information obtained under this Section 5.14 shall be kept confidential, except as may be otherwise necessary in connection
with the filing of Tax Returns or claims for refund or in conducting an audit or other proceeding. Any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in furnishing such information or assistance pursuant to this Section 5.14 shall be borne by the party
requesting it. 
 Section 5.15 Conveyance Taxes. Conveyance Taxes attributable to the sale of the Purchased
Assets or the Business shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by the Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by BSC and the Sellers when due. Without limiting the foregoing, each party shall complete and execute a resale or other exemption
certificate with respect to inventory and similar items sold hereunder, and shall provide the other party with an executed copy thereof. BSC, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall use reasonable efforts and cooperate in good faith to exempt the sale
and transfer of the Purchased Assets from any such Conveyance Taxes. The Purchaser, BSC and the Sellers shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of all necessary Tax Returns or other documents with respect to all such Conveyance Taxes;
provided, however, that in the event any such Tax Return requires execution by any Seller, the Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to such Seller a copy of such Tax Return at least five (5) days before the due date thereof, and such
Seller shall promptly execute such Tax Return and deliver it to the Purchaser, which shall cause it to be filed. The parties shall provide reimbursement for any Tax described in this Section 5.15 that is paid by the other parties as may be
necessary such that the Purchaser, on the one hand, and BSC and the Sellers, on the other each pay fifty percent (50%) of such Conveyance Taxes. 
 Section 5.16 VAT and Recoverable Taxes. Save as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Recoverable Taxes shall be borne entirely by the party entitled to recover such Taxes under
applicable Law. VAT, to the extent not considered Recoverable Taxes, shall be paid by the Purchaser on any supplies effected for VAT purposes under or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.16. The Purchaser, BSC and the Sellers shall cooperate to file any Tax Return relating to VAT or Recoverable Taxes, to the extent necessary. To the extent that any VAT is chargeable on any Purchased Assets transferred pursuant to this
Agreement, the transferring person (the “Supplier”) shall deliver to the recipient (the “Recipient”): (i) a valid VAT invoice where required by applicable Law or practice and (ii) any other documentation
as may be reasonably requested by the Recipient to assist it to recover the VAT chargeable or payable, in each case, in such form and within such timing as may be required by Law. An amount equal to the amount of VAT chargeable or payable by the
Supplier on the Purchased Assets transferred shall be paid in addition to the consideration provided in this Agreement, by the Recipient to the Supplier within five (5) Business Days of receipt of a valid VAT invoice (or where no invoice is
required, within five (5) Business Days of demand) or, if later, two (2) Business Days before the date on which the obligation to account for VAT would have had to be discharged in order to avoid liability to interest or a charge or
penalty. The Supplier shall account for all amounts in respect of VAT paid to it by the Recipient to the appropriate Tax Authorities in compliance with applicable Laws. The Supplier and the Recipient shall use reasonable efforts and cooperate in
good faith to determine the appropriate rate of VAT and to exempt the transfer of the Purchased Assets from any VAT and/or, where available, to apply for a specific VAT-relief for a “Transfer Of a Going Concern” (TOGC). This shall include,
but not be limited to, cooperation to ensure that the transfer of the Purchased Assets is treated as the transfer of a business or part thereof under 

  
 63 









 
Articles 19 and 29 of the VAT Directive (2006/112/EC) and is not a supply of goods or the supply of services. In the event that VAT is incorrectly charged by the Supplier, and the Supplier
is entitled to recover the amount of incorrectly charged VAT, the Supplier shall use its reasonable best efforts to recover such amount and shall pay such recovered amount over to the Recipient within three (3) Business Days after receipt
thereof. 
 Section 5.17 Proration of Taxes. Except as provided in Section 5.15 or 5.16, the portion of
any Tax payable with respect to a Straddle Period that is allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date or Facility Transfer Date applicable to the Purchased Asset or Transferred Employee (or, with respect to any
Deferred Asset or Deferred Closing Transfer Employee, the applicable Deferred Closing Date) shall be (i) in the case of property and similar ad valorem Taxes and any other Taxes not described in clause (ii) below relating to the Purchased
Assets or the Business, equal to the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Straddle Period that fall on or prior to the Closing Date, Facility Transfer
Date or Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period, and (ii) in the case of sales and similar Taxes, employment Taxes and other Taxes that are readily apportionable
based on an actual or deemed closing of the books relating to the Purchased Assets or the Business, computed as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date or Facility Transfer Date applicable to the Purchased Asset
or Transferred Employee or, with respect to any Deferred Asset or Deferred Closing Transfer Employee, the applicable Deferred Closing Date. If any Taxes subject to proration pursuant to the preceding sentence are paid by the Purchaser or its
Affiliates, on the one hand, or BSC or its Affiliates, on the other hand, then the proportionate amount of such Taxes for which the non-paying party is responsible under the terms of this Agreement shall be promptly reimbursed to the paying party by
the non-paying party after the payment of such Taxes. Any refunds, credits or similar benefits relating to such Taxes shall be allocated between the Purchaser and BSC in the same manner that the Taxes to which the refunds, credits or similar
benefits relate were paid, and BSC shall promptly pay to the Purchaser, or the Purchaser shall promptly pay to BSC, as the case may be, the portion of such refund, credit or similar benefit received or realized that is allocable to the other party
hereunder. 
 Section 5.18 BSC Compensation Tax Items. (a) BSC and the Purchaser acknowledge and agree
that BSC and its Affiliates will take into account any BSC Compensation Tax Items in computing liability for U.S. federal, state and local income Taxes (and shall be responsible for all withholding and information reporting with respect to such
amounts), and that neither the Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates will take into account any such BSC Compensation Tax Items in computing liability for such Taxes except as provided in this Section 5.18 or as otherwise required by applicable
Law. The same approach shall be followed for purposes of computing liability for Taxes outside the United States, except to the extent the Laws of a particular jurisdiction provide to the contrary. 

(b) If BSC determines that, under applicable Law, neither BSC nor any of its Affiliates is permitted to take into account
any BSC Compensation Tax Item, and the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates determines in good faith that it is permitted or required to take into account such BSC Compensation Tax Item in computing its income Tax liability, which


  
 64 









 
determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties, then the Purchaser shall calculate in good faith and pay to BSC the amount of any actual income Tax savings realized in the year such
BSC Compensation Tax Item is taken into account as a result of the BSC Compensation Tax Item, it being understood that an actual income Tax saving shall only be treated as occurring in a year to the extent that the Purchaser’s actual income Tax
payable in respect of such year without taking the BSC Compensation Tax Item into account is greater than the amount of actual income tax that would have been payable in such year had such BSC Compensation Tax Item not been taken into account. The
Purchaser shall make such payment, reduced by all expenses (including any employment Taxes) incurred by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with this Section 5.18, to BSC, and provide BSC with copies of the calculations of such
actual income Tax savings, within ninety (90) days following the filing of the Purchaser’s income tax Return for the year in which such BSC Compensation Tax Item is realized. The Purchaser’s calculation of such Tax savings shall be
binding and conclusive on the parties in the absence of manifest error. In the event that the Purchaser’s deduction of any BSC Compensation Tax Item is disallowed by any Governmental Authority in any audit, litigation, proceeding or otherwise,
BSC shall repay to Purchaser the amount Purchaser determines it had previously paid to BSC in respect of such disallowed BSC Compensation Tax Item, together with any penalty, interest or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority in
connection with such disallowance and any other out of pocket expenses incurred by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. 
 (c) In connection with any BSC Compensation Tax Items, BSC and the Purchaser agree to provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the other, as
provided under Section 5.14, which cooperation shall include providing information with respect to information reporting and withholding requirements applicable to the exercise by Transferred Employees and Former Employees of options to acquire
BSC capital stock and the coordination of the responsible party for such reporting and withholding requirements. 

Section 5.19 Tax Treatment of Deferred Transfers. The parties agree that (i) with respect to any Purchased Asset
that is to be transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to the Separation Agreement and (ii) with respect to any Deferred Asset that is to be transferred to the Purchaser on a Deferred Closing Date, a completed sale shall not be treated as
occurring for Tax purposes until the relevant Facility Transfer Date or Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, on which legal title to the Purchased Asset passes to the Purchaser. Neither the Purchaser nor BSC shall take (or cause any Affiliate to
take) any position to the contrary in any Tax Return or other Tax filing, or in connection with a Tax audit, litigation or other proceeding. 
 Section 5.20 Successor Employer. BSC, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall, to the extent possible, treat the Purchaser as a “successor employer” and BSC and the Sellers as
“predecessors,” within the meaning of Sections 3121(a)(1) and 3306(b)(1) of the Code, with respect to Transferred Employees for purposes of Taxes imposed under the United States Federal Unemployment Tax Act, as amended, or the United
States Federal Insurance Contributions Act, as amended. Each of the Purchaser, BSC and the Sellers agrees to adopt the “Standard Procedure” described in IRS Revenue Procedure 2004-53 and furnish a separate IRS Form W-2 to each Transferred
Employee with respect to wages paid by the Purchaser, on the one hand, and BSC and the Sellers, on the other. 

  
 65 









 Section 5.21 Risk of Loss. The risk of loss or damage by fire or other
casualty to any of the Transferred Sites or Tangible Personal Property before the Closing is assumed by BSC. In the event that any of the Transferred Sites or Tangible Personal Property shall suffer any fire or casualty or any injury before the
Closing, BSC agrees to (i) repair the damage (or cause the damage to be repaired by a landlord, as applicable) at its sole cost and expense before the Closing Date, (ii) assign to the Purchaser the proceeds of all insurance coverage in
respect of such loss so long as such proceeds are a reasonable approximation of the cost of such repairs, or (iii) make an appropriate reduction in the Initial Purchase Price based on a reasonable approximation of the cost of such repair.
Except as otherwise provided in the Separation Agreement, the risk of loss or damage by fire or other casualty to any of the Transferred Sites or Tangible Personal Property after the Closing is assumed by the Purchaser. 

Section 5.22 Intercompany Arrangements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary (other
than pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement) as of the Closing, all services, commitments, agreements or other arrangements that existed prior to the Closing between BSC and any Seller or any other Affiliate of BSC with respect to the Business shall
cease or be terminated. Any such cessation or termination shall be without penalty to, and shall not require any action by, the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. 
 Section 5.23 Mixed Contracts. Except as may otherwise be agreed by the parties in writing, any Contract (other than any Transferred Contract) to which BSC or any Seller is a party prior
to the Closing, in each case, that inures to the benefit or burden of each of the Business and the BSC Other Businesses, including those Contracts listed on Schedule 5.23 of the Disclosure Schedule (a “Mixed Contract”), shall, to
the extent commercially reasonable, be separated on or after the Closing so that each of the Purchaser and BSC shall be entitled to the rights and benefits and shall assume the related portion of any Liabilities inuring to their respective
businesses. If any Mixed Contract cannot be so separated, BSC and the Purchaser shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates to, take such other commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) the rights and benefits associated with
that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the Business to be enjoyed by the Purchaser; (ii) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the Business to be borne by the Purchaser; (iii) the
rights and benefits associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the BSC Other Businesses to be enjoyed by BSC; and (iv) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the BSC Other
Businesses to be borne by BSC. The costs of such separation shall be borne by the parties in proportion to the rights and benefits inuring to each of them under the Mixed Contract. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
Liabilities to be borne by the Purchaser under any Mixed Contracts hereunder shall not include and the Purchaser shall not assume or have any responsibility for, and BSC shall, and shall cause the Sellers to, retain and be responsible for paying,
performing and discharging when due, any Excluded Liabilities set forth in Sections 2.02(b)(i) through (xiv). 

Section 5.24 Schedules and Exhibits to Certain Ancillary Agreements; OUS Transfer Agreements. (a) The parties
acknowledge that the schedules and exhibits specified in Schedule 5.24(a) that are attached to the forms of the Separation Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement, the Supply Agreement and the Sales Agent Agreement are subject to modification
between the date hereof and the Closing Date to the extent agreed by the parties, including to provide for greater detail or specificity regarding 

  
 66 









 
the subject matter thereof. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith any such modifications to such schedules and exhibits prior to the Closing Date; provided that the parties hereby
acknowledge and agree that, subject to their compliance with such obligation to negotiate in good faith, failure to agree on any modifications to such schedules and exhibits will not excuse either party from the performance of any of its obligations
hereunder, including its obligation to effect the Closing on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Article VII. 
 (b) BSC and the Purchaser agree to negotiate in good faith to make any changes necessary to the form of OUS Transfer Agreement attached hereto to conform to applicable local Law, provided that the
economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not affected by such changes. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and any OUS Transfer Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail;
provided that in the case of any inconsistency that relates solely to the timing and specific terms of the transfer of title to one or more Purchased Assets in a particular jurisdiction, the OUS Transfer Agreement in that particular
jurisdiction shall prevail. 
 Section 5.25 IP Docket; Assignment Documents. (a) Prior to the Closing,
BSC shall provide the Purchaser with a schedule that lists all of the registration, maintenance, annuity and renewal fees, and corresponding due dates, that must be paid in order to maintain the Transferred Intellectual Property during the sixty
(60) day period following the Closing. Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, BSC shall also deliver to the Purchaser all information and documents in its possession, including all reasonably available electronically stored
information and documents, for the Purchaser to maintain continuity of prosecution of all pending applications within the Transferred Intellectual Property. 
 (b) Following the Closing Date and upon the written request of the Purchaser, BSC hereby agrees, at its sole expense, to use and shall cause its Sellers to use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly
obtain and deliver to Purchaser any existing patent assignment or other documents demonstrating ownership by BSC or a Seller of the Transferred Intellectual Property, to the extent not already provided pursuant to Section 2.06(d). 

Section 5.26 Additional Patents. (a) The Purchaser shall within ten (10) years following the Closing Date,
notify BSC in writing of any patent issued, or patent application filed, prior to the Closing Date owned by or licensed to BSC or the Sellers as of the Closing Date that: (x) is neither included in the Business Intellectual Property, nor
licensed to the Purchaser pursuant to the Seller IP License Agreement; and (y) the Purchaser determines may be infringed by the import, use, manufacture, offer to sell or sale of (“Covers”) a Transferred Product (which, as used
in this Section 5.26, has the meaning assigned to it in the Technology Transfer Agreement), as such Transferred Product exists in, or is used or made by, the Business as conducted by BSC or the Sellers as of the Closing Date. The rights in any
such patent or patent issuing from such application, as between the Parties, shall be assessed as follows: 
 (i)
if any claim of such patent Covers a Transferred Product, or method of using or making a Transferred Product, as such Transferred 

  
 67 









 
Product exists in, or is used or made by, the Business as conducted by BSC or the Sellers as of the Closing Date, and does not also Cover another commercialized or development phase device, or
the using or making of such a device, of BSC or any of its Affiliates existing on or before the Closing Date, then BSC and the Purchaser shall promptly execute (1) an assignment transferring ownership of or the license to such patent to the
Purchaser, and (2) an amendment to the Purchaser IP License Agreement adding such patent as a Licensed Patent or Third Party Licensed Patent thereunder, as applicable, which assignment and amendment will be effective as of the Closing Date;

 (ii) if any claim of such patent Covers a Transferred Product, or method of using or making a Transferred
Product, as such Transferred Product exists in, or is used or made by, the Business as conducted by BSC or the Sellers of the Closing Date, and also Covers another commercialized or development phase device, or the using or making of such a device,
of BSC or any of its Affiliates existing on or before the Closing Date, then such patent will be added to Schedule A or C of the Seller IP License Agreement, as applicable, and BSC and the Purchaser shall promptly execute an amendment to the Seller
IP License Agreement, which amendment will be effective as of the Closing Date; and 
 (iii) if no claim of such
patent Covers a Transferred Product, or method of using or making a Transferred Product, as such Transferred Product exists in, or is used or made by, the Business as conducted by BSC or the Sellers as of the Closing Date, then BSC or the Seller
shall retain the exclusive right, title and interest in any such patent. 
 (b) If a dispute arises under this
Section 5.26, regarding (i) whether or not the patent or patent application identified by the Purchaser Covers a Transferred Product, as such Transferred Product exists in, or is used or made by, the Business as conducted by BSC or the
Sellers as of the Closing Date; and, if so, (ii) whether or not any claim of any such patent satisfies any one of clauses (i) – (iii) of this Section 5.26, that dispute, as well as the selection of a single arbitrator to
arbitrate the dispute, will be arbitrated before the American Arbitration Association in Delaware under their Resolution of Patent Disputes rules in a binding, non-appealable arbitration proceeding. 

(c) If BSC or any of the Sellers chooses or is required by an arbitrator to assign or license the rights to a patent or
patent issuing from an application to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.26, then (i) BSC and the Sellers shall have no liability (x) for failure of such identified patents or applications to be so included in the Business
Intellectual Property or licensed pursuant to the Seller IP License Agreement, or (y) arising out of BSC’s or the Sellers’ use or encumbering of such identified patents or applications prior to receipt of such written notice from the
Purchaser, (ii) such assignment or license shall only be granted to the fullest extent (if any) that BSC and the Sellers have the right to grant such assignment or (sub)license as

of the date of such assessment, and (iii) any royalties or fees paid or payable to BSC or any of the Sellers by any third party following the Closing Date for a license or transfer of any

pursuant to this Section 5.26, shall be paid to the Purchaser as of the date of notice given to BSC by the Purchaser. 

ARTICLE VI 

EMPLOYEE MATTERS 
 Section 6.01 Offers of Employment and Automatic Transfers. (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided in the Transition Services Agreement, (i) as of each applicable Employee
Transfer Date, the Purchaser shall, solely as required by applicable Transfer Law, automatically become the employer of the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees and (ii) as of each applicable Employee Transfer Date, and subject to
(A) Purchaser’s satisfactory completion of reasonable drug testing and reasonable criminal background check screening and (B) OIG debar checking, sales representative credentialing and work authorization (including to Form I-9
documentation), as applicable and reasonably necessary, (C) execution of non-compete/confidentiality agreements with terms no more restrictive to the applicable employee than those currently in effect with respect to similarly situated
employees of the Purchaser and (D) any other documents as required by applicable Law to effect employment (collectively, the “Purchaser’s Employment Contingencies”), the Purchaser shall offer employment to the
Corresponding Transfer Date Employees whose employment is not required to be transferred automatically pursuant to Transfer Law. In the event that the Purchaser intends not to offer employment to a Corresponding Transfer Date Employee due to a
purported failure by such Corresponding Transfer Date Employee to satisfy the Purchaser’s Employment Contingencies, then the Purchaser shall promptly inform BSC in writing of such intention and the specific grounds therefor, and shall consider
in good faith any objection BSC may have to the Purchaser not offering employment to such Corresponding Transfer Date Employee. Such offer or transfer of employment initially shall be, subject to applicable Law, at salary or other base compensation
rate (including sales commission rates) that is no less favorable to such Employee than the rate in effect immediately prior to such applicable Employee Transfer Date. In addition, the Purchaser shall offer employment at a location that is no more
than thirty-five (35) miles from the employee’s principal place of work immediately prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date. The Purchaser shall commence and conclude all activities necessary to effectuate satisfaction of the
Purchaser Employment Contingencies with respect to the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees whose employment is not required to be transferred automatically pursuant to Transfer Law at its own cost and within the sixty (60) days prior to the
applicable Employee Transfer Date or, solely with respect to the Closing Transfer Employees, within the period of time commencing on the date hereof and concluding on the Closing, provided that BSC and the Sellers shall have provided access to the
applicable Corresponding Transfer Date Employees, and all employment records and files relating thereto, no later than sixty (60) days prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date and, solely with respect to the Closing Transfer 

  
 69 









 
Employees, shall have provided to the Purchaser immediately following the date hereof, access to the Closing Transfer Employees, and all employment records and files relating thereto. BSC and the
Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees to accept such offers of employment that are required to be made by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 6.01(a). In the event that the
Purchaser fails to comply with any of the requirements of this Section 6.01(a), other than to the extent such failure is attributable to the failure of BSC or its Affiliates to comply with applicable Transfer Laws or the provisions of
Section 6.01(b) or the Transition Services Agreement, the Purchaser shall be responsible for and indemnify, defend and hold harmless BSC and its Affiliates against any cost, obligation or liability arising therefrom under WARN (or any
comparable non-U.S. Law) and the BSC Severance Pay and Layoff Notification Plan, as Amended and Restated, effective as of August 1, 2008, or any other applicable Plan; provided that BSC and its Affiliates shall be responsible for and
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser against any cost, obligation or liability to the extent attributable to a failure of BSC or its Affiliates to comply with applicable Transfer Law or the provisions of Section 6.01(b) or the
Transition Services Agreement or arising from the inability of any applicant or employee to meet the Purchaser’s Employment Contingencies to the Purchaser’s satisfaction, including any claims brought by individuals for failure to become
employed or continue in employment with the Purchaser’s Employment Contingencies. As used herein, “Transferred Employee” means each Corresponding Transfer Date Employee who accepts such offer or whose employment transfers
automatically under applicable Transfer Laws and who, in either case, actually commences employment with the Purchaser as of the applicable Employee Transfer Date. With respect to any employee who is on short-term disability leave, workers’
compensation leave, or other authorized leave of absence as of the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date and who accepts such offer of employment with the Purchaser or whose employment transfers automatically, such employment with the
Purchaser shall commence and such employee shall become a Transferred Employee as of the date of such employee returns to active employment, subject to applicable Law. 

(b) Cooperation. The parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other as may be or may become required,
necessary, proper or advisable under this Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement or applicable Law, including applicable Transfer Law, to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, or as may be agreed to by the parties
hereof, including assistance in any meeting with, filing with or notification to, or obtaining any consent, authorization, order or approval of, (i) any Corresponding Transfer Date Employee, (ii) any works council, labor union, or employee
representative, or (iii) any Governmental Authority. BSC and the Sellers shall cooperate with the Purchaser in the Purchaser’s recruitment of the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees, including (x) permitting the Purchaser reasonable
and prompt access to the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees to communicate to such employees any information concerning employment offers and employment with the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement, (y) providing on a timely basis
any notices required of BSC or its Affiliates under applicable Transfer Law and, to the extent such notice addresses matters effective after the applicable Employee Transfer Date, consulting with Purchaser in respect thereof and (z) subject to
applicable Law, providing prompt access to personnel files, organizational succession planning, talent review and development planning documents of such employees. BSC and the Sellers shall use all reasonable efforts to maintain favorable relations
with the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees from the date 

  
 70 









 
hereof up to and including the applicable Employee Transfer Date, including taking all steps reasonably necessary to retain the services and goodwill of each such employee, and shall refrain from
taking any action that could harm or damage relations with the Corresponding Transfer Date Employees or that could cause any such employee to terminate the employee’s service with BSC or any Seller prior to the applicable Corresponding Transfer
Date; provided that nothing herein shall be construed as preventing BSC from enforcing its employment policies against Corresponding Transfer Date Employees in accordance with its customary practices. 

Section 6.02 Employee Benefits. (a) Except as contemplated by Section 6.03 or the Transition Services
Agreement, as of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, each Transferred Employee shall cease to be covered under the Plans. Except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Transition Services Agreement, as of the applicable Employee Transfer Date,
the Transferred Employees shall be covered by the employee benefit plans of the Purchaser. For a period from the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date until eighteen (18) months following such date, the Purchaser shall provide the
Transferred Employees (i) who are employed in the United States by the Purchaser with a level of employee benefits substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to similarly situated employees of the Seller, and
(ii) who are employed by the Purchaser outside the United States with a level of employee benefits substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser, provided that, in the
case of either (i) or (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, “employee benefits,” as used herein, shall not include any bonus or incentive compensation benefits. 

(b) (i) Provided that BSC’s incentive and bonus plans applicable to the Transferred Employees who will be employed by
the Purchaser are listed in Section 6.02(b)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Incentive Plans”), the Purchaser shall honor the percentage of target amount for each Transferred Employee, under the terms of the Incentive Plans
(A) with respect to Closing Transfer Employees, through December 31, 2011, (B) with respect to the Cork Transfer Employees, the Fremont Transfer Employees, the West Valley Transfer Employees, the Deferred Closing Transfer Employees
and the Delayed Transfer Employees, if the applicable Employee Transfer Date has occurred on or prior to September 30 of a given calendar year, through the end of such calendar year, and (C) with respect to the Cork Transfer Employees, the
Fremont Transfer Employees, the West Valley Transfer Employees, the Deferred Closing Transfer Employees and the Delayed Transfer Employees, if the applicable Employee Transfer Date has occurred on or following October 1 of a given calendar
year, through the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable Employee Transfer Date occurred (in the case of each of (A), (B) and (C) hereof, the “Incentive Compensation Continuation
Period”). The Purchaser shall be responsible for payments that are earned by the applicable Transferred Employees pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plans during the Incentive Compensation Continuation Period, even if any such payment
is required to be made during the year following such Incentive Compensation Continuation Period. Following such Incentive Compensation Continuation Period, the applicable Transferred Employees shall be covered under a bonus or incentive plan of the
Purchaser that is provided to similarly situated employees of the Purchaser to the extent applicable. 

  
 71 









 (ii) An amount equal to at least one hundred percent (100%) of the
aggregate target incentive pool for the Business as set forth in the The BSC 2010 Performance Incentive Plan (the “PIP”) for the 2010 fiscal year attributable to each Closing Transfer Employee on Section 6.02(b)(ii) of the
Disclosure Schedule (the “2010 Bonus Pool”) shall be paid to the Closing Transfer Employees identified on Section 6.02(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule. BSC shall pay a percentage portion of the 2010 Bonus Pool equal to the
greater of (i) fifty percent (50%) and (ii) a percentage equal to the percentage of the 2010 Bonus Pool that would be earned by the Closing Transfer Employees based on actual performance as determined in good faith following the end
of the PIP performance year by BSC in its sole discretion, and, to the extent not paid by BSC, on or before March 15, 2011, the Purchaser shall pay (or shall cause one of its Affiliates to pay) the remainder, provided that, in no event shall
Purchaser be responsible for paying in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the target bonus amount designated for each Closing Transfer Employee on Section 6.02(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule. No later than March 2, 2011, BSC shall
provide Purchaser with a list of each Closing Transfer Employee on Section 6.02(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule and the corresponding amount of bonus that has been paid by BSC to such Closing Transfer Employee and the amount of bonus to be
paid by Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.02(b)(ii) shall apply only to those Closing Transfer Employees identified on Section 6.02(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule and no other Transferred Employees and shall apply in
respect of 2010 only, and except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.02(b) or the Transition Services Agreement, neither Purchaser nor its Affiliates shall have any obligation in respect of wage payments to Transferred Employees in respect
of the period preceding the Closing. 
 (iii) With respect to payments due under any sales retention bonus
program of BSC or its Affiliates that is identified on Section 6.02(b)(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule, the Purchaser shall make payments to Transferred Employees, as and when they otherwise become due under such program following the Closing
Date, equal to the amount otherwise due under such program (exclusive of amounts attributable to fringe or similar benefits) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the applicable retention period following the
Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the retention period; provided that in no event shall the aggregate bonus amount on which Purchaser’s payment obligation under this Section 6.02(b)(iii) is
determined (before application of the proration fraction described in the preceding provisions of this Section 6.02(b)(iii)) exceed $2,150,000. 
 (c) For a period from the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date until twelve (12) months following such date (the “Severance Plan Continuation Period”), the Purchaser shall
honor the terms of the severance plans applicable to the Transferred Employees who are employed by the Purchaser, provided that such plans are listed in Section 6.02(c) of the 

  
 72 









 
Disclosure Schedule, and following such Severance Plan Continuation Period, the applicable Transferred Employees shall be covered under a severance plan of the Purchaser that is provided to
similarly situated employees of the Purchaser, to the extent applicable. 
 (d) Each Transferred Employee shall
(without prejudice to any rights under relevant Transfer Laws or other applicable Laws relating to deemed continuity of service) receive credit for services with BSC and its Affiliates and predecessors under the Purchaser’s employee benefit
plans to the extent of participation therein for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual solely to the extent such credit was provided to such Transferred Employee under the applicable Plan as of immediately prior to the applicable
Employee Transfer Date and provided that in no event shall such service be credited to the extent it would result in the duplication of benefits or the funding thereof, or cause a Transferred Employee to receive any benefit whatsoever other
than additional eligibility, vesting or benefit accrual service credits under Purchaser’s employee benefit plans (to the extent of participation therein), to the extent applicable. 

Section 6.03 Existing Agreements. From and after the applicable Employee Transfer Date, the Purchaser hereby assumes
and shall honor the agreements listed in Section 6.03 of the Disclosure Schedule, subject to any amendment or modification agreed to between the Purchaser and the applicable employee who is a party to such agreement. 

Section 6.04 WARN. The Purchaser shall be responsible for any obligation with respect to the Transferred Employees
under the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act of 1988 and any applicable state or local equivalent arising or accruing after the applicable Employee Transfer Date (collectively, “WARN”) and any comparable non-U.S. Law.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.01(a), BSC shall be responsible for any such obligation arising or accruing before the applicable Employee Transfer Date. On or before the Closing Date, BSC and the Sellers shall provide a list of the
name and site of employment of any and all employees of Seller who have experienced, or will experience, an employment loss or layoff – as defined by WARN or any comparable non-U.S. law requiring notice to employees in the event of a closing or
layoff – within ninety (90) days prior to the Closing Date. BSC shall update this list up to and including the Closing Date. The parties hereto agree to cooperate in good faith to determine whether any notification may be required under
WARN as a result of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. 
 Section 6.05 COBRA. BSC shall be
responsible for the administration of and shall retain any and all obligations and liabilities for continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), with respect to the
Transferred Employees and their dependents and beneficiaries for “qualifying events” occurring on or prior to the date on which the Transferred Employee becomes a Transferred Employee (for purposes of clarity, to the extent such
Transferred Employees are covered under an employee benefit plan providing for such COBRA continuation benefits), and the Purchaser shall be responsible for all obligations and liabilities for COBRA continuation coverage for Transferred Employees
and their dependents and beneficiaries with respect to “qualifying events” occurring after the date on which the Transferred Employee becomes a 

  
 73 









 
Transferred Employee (for purposes of clarity, to the extent such Transferred Employees are covered under an employee benefit plan providing for COBRA continuation benefits). 

Section 6.06 401(k) Plans. (a) Effective as of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, no Transferred Employee
shall actively participate in BSC’s 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (“BSC’s 401(k) Plan”). On the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, Transferred Employees who participate in BSC’s 401(k) Plan shall
immediately be 100% vested in their individual account balances under BSC’s 401(k) Plan. 
 (b) As soon as
administratively practicable following the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, BSC shall advise such Transferred Employees who participated in BSC’s 401(k) Plan of their right to elect to receive a distribution of, or to directly
rollover, their individual account balances in BSC’s 401(k) Plan. To the extent permitted by Law and provided that the Purchaser is reasonably satisfied that BSC’s 401(k) Plan is qualified within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the
Code, as soon as practicable following the date of the applicable Employee Transfer Date, such account balances may be transferred by Transferred Employees to a defined contribution retirement plan maintained by the Purchaser (the
“Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan”) in a direct rollover or rollover contribution. Service of each Transferred Employee prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date which was recognized under BSC’s 401(k) Plan shall be credited
to such Transferred Employee for purposes of eligibility and vesting under the Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan. Prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date, the Purchaser shall amend the Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan to the extent necessary to accept
direct rollovers from BSC’s 401(k) Plan and to permit Transferred Employees to make rollover contributions to the Purchaser’s 401(k) Plan. 
 Section 6.07 Accrued Vacation. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, BSC shall pay to each Transferred Employee, as soon as administratively practicable, but no later than two
(2) pay periods following the applicable Employee Transfer Date, a cash payment reflecting the value of such employee’s unused accrued vacation and any other paid time off calculated at the employee’s base hourly or salary rate in
effect just prior to the applicable Employee Transfer Date. 
 Section 6.08 No Guarantee of Continued Employment;
No Third-Party Rights. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VI or otherwise in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Transferred Employee the right to continue in employment with the Purchaser following
the applicable Employee Transfer Date, or is intended to interfere with the Purchaser’s right or ability (i) to terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee for any reason or no reason following the applicable Employee Transfer
Date or (ii) subject to Section 6.02, to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement in the sole discretion of the Purchaser. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this
Article VI are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties to this Agreement and shall not create any right in any other Person, including any employees, former employees, any participant in any employee benefit plan, policy or
arrangement maintained by Sellers or BSC or any beneficiary thereof. 

  
 74 









 Section 6.09 Compliance with Law. BSC, Sellers and the Purchaser agree to
comply with all applicable Laws pertaining to the subject matter of this Article VI. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties herein expressly acknowledge and agree that (i) any action ostensibly required or permitted under
this Article VI shall only be required or permitted to the extent consistent with applicable Law; (ii) applicable Law may also require a party herein to take actions in addition to those it is otherwise contractually obligated to take
hereunder; and (iii) any failure of a party hereto to abide by applicable Law pertaining to the subject matter of this Article VI shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement.

Article VIII, “Losses” shall be net of any insurance recoveries actually paid to the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates under any insurance policy in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification;
provided, the amount of such recovery shall be reduced by any costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery and by the amount of any increase in insurance premiums resulting from making the claim giving rise to such recovery.

known, and method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises; provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not
release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. 

(b) If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Action, audit, claim, demand or assessment made by any Person who
is not a party to this Agreement or its Affiliates against it which may give rise to a claim for Losses under this Article VIII (each, together with any matter set forth in Section 2.02(b)(vii), a “Third Party Claim”), within
60 days of the receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party notice of such Third Party Claim; provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its
obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, at its option, to assume and control the defense of such Third
Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within 45 days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake
any such defense against a Third Party Claim the Indemnified Party may, upon giving prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party, participate in such defense at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the claim for
indemnification is with respect to a criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation against the Indemnified Party, then to the extent the Third Party Claim relates to the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
conduct and control the defense of such 

  
 79 









 
criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation with counsel of its choosing, and the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be
borne by the Indemnifying Party, or (ii) if the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnified Party
shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action or claim with counsel of its choosing and the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified
Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s
possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not settle such Third
Party Claim unless the Indemnifying Party consents in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party (which may be withheld in the Indemnified Party’s sole discretion), enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim if such
settlement, compromise or judgment (x) involves a finding or admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (y) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified
Party and its Affiliates from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim or (z) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates other than solely the payment of money damages for which the
Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party all
witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party assumes
the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not settle such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if a Third Party Claim constitutes a Mixed Action, the
parties shall jointly discuss in good faith a strategy for the conduct and control of a Mixed Action, including the selection of counsel (the “Defense Strategy”); provided that if the parties cannot agree in writing on the
Defense Strategy for such Mixed Action within twenty (20) Business Days after delivery of the notice referred to above in respect of such Mixed Action, each party shall be entitled, subject to clause (i) of Section 8.05(b), to assume
and control the defense of the portion of such Mixed Action for which it is responsible or otherwise may be obligated to indemnify the other party (the “Assumed Portion”); provided further that each such assuming party shall
not, without the prior written consent of the other party (which may be withheld in the other party’s sole discretion), enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Assumed Portion if such
settlement, compromise or judgment (x) involves a finding or admission of wrongdoing by either party or any of its Affiliates, (y) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the other party and its
Affiliates from 

  
 80 









 
all liability in respect of such Assumed Portion, or (z) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the other party or any of its Affiliates in respect of such Assumed Portion other
than solely the payment of money damages for which the assuming party is responsible or the other party will be indemnified hereunder. Each party to a Mixed Action may participate in the defense of the other party’s Assumed Portion of such
Mixed Action (including by having its representatives and counsel appear at all hearings, depositions and settlement negotiations related thereto), regardless of whether the Mixed Action is subsequently bifurcated or otherwise separately tried in
part or whole, and will bear the costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with such participation, unless otherwise agreed in accordance with the Defense Strategy. Each party shall also cooperate with the other party in the defense of the
other party’s Assumed Portion and make available to the other party, at the other party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in such party’s possession or under its control relating thereto as is
reasonably required by the other party. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Mixed Action” means any Third Party Claim that a party believes is reasonably likely to include both (1) claims in respect of which it will be the
Indemnified Party under this Article VIII and (2) claims (A) as to which no right of indemnification exists for such party under this Article VIII, or (B) as to which it is the Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII. 

Section 8.06 Tax Treatment. To the extent permitted by Law, the parties hereto agree to treat all payments made under
this Article VIII, under any other indemnity provision contained in this Agreement, and for any misrepresentations or breach of warranties or covenants, as adjustments to the Purchase Price for all Tax purposes. 

Section 8.07 Remedies. The Purchaser and BSC acknowledge and agree that, (a) following the Closing, the
indemnification provisions of this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Purchaser and BSC for any claims under this Agreement, provided that nothing in this Section 8.07 shall restrict or prohibit any party
bringing any action for fraud, intentional misrepresentation, intentional and material breach or from seeking specific performance of any obligation hereunder, and (b) anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except in the case of
actual fraud, no breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein shall give rise to any right on the part of the Purchaser or BSC, after the Closing Date, to rescind this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or
any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each party hereto shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, take all reasonable steps to mitigate its Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give
rise to any Losses. 
 Section 8.08 Set-Off Rights. 

(a) Other than as expressly provided in this Section 8.08, neither party hereto shall have any right to set-off any
amounts determined to be owed under this Agreement (including by an Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party pursuant to this Article VIII) against any amount payable by such party or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, any of the
Ancillary Agreements or otherwise. 

  
 81 









 (b) The Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold and set-off against the
Milestone Payments the amount of any Third Party Claim against a Purchaser Indemnified Party that has been made in writing and in respect of which the Purchaser has sought indemnification from BSC in accordance with Sections 8.04(a) and 8.05(b) or
the amount of any payment due by BSC under Section 14.06 of the Separation Agreement (a “Set-Off Claim”) subject to the terms of this Section 8.08. 

(c) No set-off may be made unless the Purchaser has provided a written notice of request (a “Request
Notice”) in respect of a Set-Off Claim at least forty-five (45) days prior to the date the Purchaser is required to make a Milestone Payment pursuant to Section 2.04 (a “Milestone Payment Date”), unless the
Purchaser first receives notice of a Third Party Claim within such forty-five (45) day period, in which case the Purchaser shall give a Request Notice in respect of such Set-Off Claim as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than five
(5) Business Days) following receipt of such notice. The Request Notice shall include (i) a description of the Purchaser’s good faith basis for determining that such Set-Off Claim gives rise to a right of indemnification under
Section 8.02, and (ii) the Purchaser’s good faith estimate of the amount of Loss reasonably likely to be incurred by a Purchaser Indemnified Party in respect of such Set-Off Claim (the “Requested Set-Off Payment”).

 (d) If BSC does not deliver written notice to the Purchaser disputing a Set-Off Claim or
the amount of a Requested Set-Off Payment, which notice shall describe the basis for BSC’s dispute of such Set-Off Claim (a “Set-Off Dispute Notice”), by 5:00 p.m. New York time on the tenth (10th) Business Day after BSC’s receipt of the Request Notice,
then, as of the Business Day following the end of such 10 Business Day period, the Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold and set-off such Requested Set-Off Payment against the next Milestone Payment in accordance with Section 8.08(h).

 (e) If BSC delivers a Set-Off Dispute Notice in accordance with Section 8.08(d), BSC and the Purchaser
will attempt in good faith to resolve their dispute in respect of the Set-Off Claim. If they fail to resolve their dispute for any reason within ten (10) Business Days after BSC’s delivery of the Set-Off Dispute Notice to the Purchaser,
the dispute shall be arbitrated in Wilmington, Delaware by a single arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and the expedited procedures thereof (other than, to the extent possible, rule
E-10-Compensation). BSC or the Purchaser shall submit the dispute to arbitration as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days) after the ten Business Day period referred to above, and shall instruct the
arbitrator to determine only whether the Purchaser is entitled to set-off all or any portion of the amount of the Requested Set-Off Payment in accordance with this Section 8.08. The decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered as promptly as
practicable (if possible no later than thirty (30) days) after the appointment of the arbitrator, or as soon thereafter as practicable. The decision and award of the arbitrator shall be deemed final and conclusive for purposes of whether the
Purchaser shall be entitled to set-off the amount of the Requested Set-Off Payment under this Section 8.08, but not in respect of any other matter relating to such Set-Off Claim, including whether any Purchaser Indemnified Party is ultimately
determined to be entitled to be indemnified in respect of such 

  
 82 









 
Set-Off Claim under Section 8.02. The decision and award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the parties for the purpose set forth above, and may be entered and enforced in any
court having jurisdiction. 
 (f) If the arbitrator rules that the Set-Off Claim is not a claim that entitles the
Purchaser to withhold and set-off all or any portion of the Requested Set-Off Payment against the next Milestone Payment (the “Disallowed Requested Set-Off Payment”), the Purchaser shall have no right to withhold or set-off the
Disallowed Requested Set-Off Payment in respect of such Set-Off Claim and, if the Requested Set-Off Payment in respect of such Set-Off Claim has previously been deposited in the Escrow Account, BSC shall be entitled to instruct the Escrow Agent to
release an amount equal to the Disallowed Requested Set-Off Payment (plus any interest earned on such Disallowed Requested Set-Off Payment at a rate of interest from time to time publicly announced by Bank of America, N.A. as its prime or base rate
plus 2%) to BSC from the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 
 (g) If the
arbitrator rules that the Purchaser is entitled to set-off all or any portion of the Requested Set-Off Payment in respect of such Set-Off Claim (the “Allowed Requested Set-Off Payment”), the Purchaser shall have the right to
withhold and set-off against the Milestone Payments the Allowed Requested Set-Off Payment in respect of such Set-Off Claim, and the amount of the Allowed Requested Set-Off Payment may be deposited, or if the Requested Set-Off Payment has previously
been deposited, retained, in the Escrow Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 
 (h) If
BSC has not delivered a Set-Off Dispute Notice in accordance with Section 8.08(d), or if the amount of the Requested Set-Off Payment has not been determined in accordance with this Section 8.08 prior to the date of the next Milestone
Payment Date, the Purchaser shall deposit an amount equal to the Requested Set-Off Payment into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) on the Milestone Payment Date in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Otherwise,
the amount of the Allowed Requested Set-Off Payment shall be deposited by the Purchaser in the Escrow Account on such date. The Requested Set-Off Payment or the Allowed Requested Set-Off Payment (as applicable) shall be released from the Escrow
Account in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. 
 Section 8.09 Information; Waiver. The right
to indemnification or any other remedy based on representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement shall not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired)
at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance with, any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the
accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will not affect the right to indemnification or any other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants and
obligations.

 ARTICLE IX 
 TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01
Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by either BSC or
the Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the six (6) month anniversary of the date of this Agreement (the “End Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this
Section 9.01(a) shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date; 

(b) by either the Purchaser or BSC in the event that any Governmental Order restraining, enjoining or otherwise
prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have become final and nonappealable; 
 (c) by
the Purchaser if BSC shall have breached any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII and which cannot be or has not been
cured within thirty (30) days following written notice thereof by the Purchaser; 
 (d) by BSC if the
Purchaser shall have breached any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, which would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Article VII and which cannot be or has not been cured within
thirty (30) days following written notice thereof by BSC; or 
 (e) by the mutual written consent of BSC and
the Purchaser. 
 Section 9.02 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement as
provided in Section 9.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability on the part of either party hereto except (a) as set forth in Section 5.03 and Article X and (b) that nothing herein shall
relieve either party from liability for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination.

 Section 10.03 Public Announcements. Neither party to this Agreement shall
make, or cause to be made, any press release or public announcement in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other party
unless otherwise required by Law or applicable stock exchange regulation, and the parties to this Agreement shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such press release, public announcement or communication. 

Section 10.04 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being
enforced by any Law or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect for so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not
affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement
so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible. 

Section 10.05 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute
the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between BSC and the Purchaser with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof. 
 Section 10.06 Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise
without the express written consent of BSC and the Purchaser (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of BSC or the Purchaser), as the case may be; provided that the Purchaser may assign this Agreement or any of its
rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Affiliates of the Purchaser (a “Purchaser Affiliate”) upon notice to BSC but without the consent of BSC, so long as any such assignment (a) shall not release the Purchaser from
any obligation or liability hereunder and (b) is not likely to delay the Closing, provided that BSC acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may, subject to its compliance with clause (a) above, assign certain of its rights and
obligations hereunder to the Purchaser Affiliates specified in Schedule 10.06. 
 Section 10.07 Amendment.
This Agreement may not be amended or modified except (a) by an instrument in writing signed by, or on behalf of, BSC and the Purchaser or (b) by a waiver in accordance with Section 10.08. 

Section 10.08 Waiver. Either party to this Agreement may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the
obligations or other acts of the other party, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered by the other party pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance with
any of the agreements of the other party or conditions to such party’s obligations contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any waiver
of any term or condition shall not be 

  
 86 









 
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or a subsequent waiver of the same term or condition, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement. The failure of either party
hereto to assert any of its rights hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any of such rights. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available. 

Section 10.09 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for the provisions of Article VIII relating to Indemnified Parties,
this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal
or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever, including any rights of employment for any specified period, under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 Section 10.10 Currency and Exchange Rates. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all references to currency, monetary values and dollars set forth herein shall mean United
States (U.S.) dollars and all payments hereunder shall be made in United States dollars. In the event that there is any need to convert U.S. dollars into any foreign currency, or vice versa, for any purpose under this Agreement, the exchange rate
shall be that published by the Wall Street Journal three (3) Business Days before the date on which the obligation is paid (or if the Wall Street Journal is not published on such date, the first date thereafter on which the Wall Street Journal
is published), except as otherwise required by applicable Law (in which case, the exchange rate shall be determined in accordance with such Law). 
 Section 10.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the parties hereto could be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not
performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached and that any non-performance or breach of this Agreement by any party hereto could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone and that the parties hereto would
not have any adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which any party hereto may be entitled, at law or in equity (including monetary damages), such party shall be entitled to seek enforcement of any provision
of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to seek temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement without posting any bond or other
undertaking. 
 Section 10.12 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to choice or conflict of law principles that would result in the application of any laws other than the laws of the State of Delaware. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(b), 5.26 and 8.08(e),
all Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the
State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware and any direct appellate court therefrom). Consistent with the preceding sentence, the parties hereto hereby
(a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any such courts for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by either party hereto and (b) irrevocably waive, and


  
 87 









 
agree not to assert as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is
exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by any
of the above-named courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such Action may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each party agrees that notice or the service
of process in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be properly served or delivered if delivered in the manner contemplated by Section 10.02, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of any party
hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. 
 Section 10.13 Waiver of Jury
Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION BETWEEN THE PARTIES DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH
OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG
OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.13. 
 Section 10.14
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or pdf transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to
be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

  
 88 









 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of BSC and the Purchaser has caused this Agreement to be executed
as of the date first written above by its respective officers thereunto duly authorized.
