| **Item 1.01** | **Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**  |

---

On July 13, 2025, Waters Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Waters"), entered into definitive agreements with Becton, Dickinson and Company, a New Jersey corporation ("BD"), Augusta SpinCo Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of BD ("SpinCo"), and Beta Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Waters ("Merger Sub"), with respect to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction, and pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions of such definitive agreements, (i) BD will transfer (or cause to be transferred) and SpinCo will accept and assume (or cause to be accepted and assumed) all of the rights, titles and interests to and under certain assets and liabilities relating to BD's Biosciences and Diagnostic Solutions business (the "SpinCo Business") (the "Reorganization"), (ii) BD will distribute to its shareholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of SpinCo ("SpinCo Common Stock") held by BD by way of a pro rata distribution (the "Spin-Off" and the disposition by BD of 100% of the SpinCo Common Stock by way of the Spin-Off, the "Distribution") and (iii) following the Distribution, Merger Sub will be merged with and into SpinCo, with SpinCo as the surviving entity (the "Merger") and all SpinCo Common Stock will be converted into the right to receive shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Waters ("Waters Common Stock"), as calculated and subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below) (collectively, the "Proposed Transaction"). When the Merger is completed, SpinCo will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waters.

When the Merger is completed, shareholders of Waters immediately prior to the Merger will own approximately 60.8% and former SpinCo shareholders prior to the Distribution will own approximately 39.2% of the outstanding shares of Waters Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. The transaction has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both Waters and BD.

The definitive agreements entered into in connection with the transaction include (i) an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of July 13, 2025, by and among Waters, BD, SpinCo and Merger Sub, and (ii) a Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement"), dated as of July 13, 2025, by and among Waters, BD and SpinCo. Waters, BD and SpinCo will also enter into additional agreements, including, among others:

• a Tax Matters Agreement, which will govern, among other things, Waters', BD's and SpinCo's respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to taxes, tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, responsibility for and preservation of the expected tax-free status of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement and certain other tax matters;

• an Employee Matters Agreement, which will govern, among other things, Waters', BD's and SpinCo's obligations with respect to current and former employees of BD and of the SpinCo Business;

• an Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, solely between BD and SpinCo, which will allocate rights and interests in certain intellectual property rights relating to the SpinCo Business and BD;

• a Transition Services Agreement, which will govern, among other things, the parties' respective rights and obligations with respect to the provision of certain transition services; and

• one or more Contract Manufacturing Agreements, which will govern, among other things, Waters', BD's, and SpinCo's respective rights and obligations with respect to certain manufacturing services for certain products.

#### The Separation Agreement
*Separation.* The Separation Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions regarding the separation of the SpinCo Business from BD. The Separation Agreement identifies and provides for the transfer of certain assets by BD to SpinCo, the transfer of certain assets by SpinCo to BD, the assumption of certain liabilities by SpinCo from BD and the assumption of certain liabilities by BD from SpinCo. The Separation Agreement also governs the rights and obligations of BD and SpinCo regarding the distribution by BD of SpinCo Common Stock to BD's shareholders. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, the Distribution will be effected by means of a pro rata distribution of SpinCo Common Stock to BD's shareholders without consideration.

------

*Distribution.* Prior to, and as a condition of, the Distribution, SpinCo will make a cash payment to BD equal to $4.0 billion (the "SpinCo Cash Distribution"), subject to adjustment for cash, working capital and indebtedness of SpinCo and subject to decrease if additional shares of Waters Common Stock will be issued to the Company shareholders to meet the Threshold Percentage (as described below). On July 13, 2025, SpinCo and certain financial institutions executed a certain 364-day bridge loan facility commitment letter pursuant to which such financial institutions have committed to provide bridge financing (the "Bridge Facility") to SpinCo to fund the amount of the SpinCo Cash Distribution and to pay fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Separation Agreement, on the terms and conditions set forth therein. The Bridge Facility is expected to be replaced with permanent financing (the "Permanent Financing"), which may include a delayed draw term loan facility. If the Proposed Transaction is consummated, any indebtedness incurred by SpinCo under the Bridge Facility or the Permanent Financing will become indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waters.

*Certain Other Matters.* The Separation Agreement also sets forth other agreements between BD and SpinCo related to the Distribution, including provisions concerning the termination and settlement of intercompany accounts, certain working capital adjustments and third-party consents. The Separation Agreement governs certain aspects of the relationship between BD and SpinCo after the Distribution, including provisions with respect to release of claims, indemnification, insurance, access to financial and other information and access to and provision of records. The parties have mutual ongoing indemnification obligations following the Distribution with respect to certain liabilities related to the SpinCo Business and BD's business, respectively.

*Conditions.* Consummation of the Distribution is subject to various conditions, including the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions under the Merger Agreement (which include the completion of the SpinCo Cash Distribution and other conditions described below).

The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Separation Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

#### The Merger Agreement
*Structure.* Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, immediately following the Distribution, SpinCo and Merger Sub will combine through the following series of transactions (subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement):

• Merger Sub will merge with and into SpinCo, with SpinCo surviving the Merger and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waters;

• In the Merger, holders of SpinCo Common Stock will be entitled to receive for each share of SpinCo Common Stock a number of shares of newly issued Waters Common Stock determined pursuant to the exchange ratio specified in the Merger Agreement (the "Exchange Ratio");

• Prior to the adjustments described in the following paragraph, the Exchange Ratio is designed to result in the outstanding common shares of Waters, immediately following the Merger, being owned approximately 39.2% by former SpinCo shareholders (the "SpinCo Percentage") and approximately 60.8% by the shareholders of Waters immediately prior to the Merger (the "Waters Percentage");

• However, in order to preserve the tax-free nature of the Spin-Off, the Merger Agreement generally provides that the Exchange Ratio will be adjusted and increased if necessary to ensure that, immediately following the closing of the Merger, former SpinCo shareholders (including the Overlap Shareholders, as defined in the Merger Agreement) own, for tax purposes, at least 50.5% (the "Threshold Percentage") of the outstanding shares of Waters Common Stock. In the event that the exchange ratio is adjusted upwards, Waters could issue a pre-closing cash dividend to its shareholders (any such dividend, a "Waters Special Dividend") and/or the SpinCo Cash Distribution could be decreased to account for the value of the additional shares issued to the Company shareholders (as required pursuant to the Merger Agreement).

------

Each step of the Merger is intended to be completed substantially concurrently, in the order indicated.

*Financing.* On July 13, 2025, in addition to the Bridge Facility described above, Waters and a financial institution executed a 364-day bridge loan facility commitment letter, pursuant to which such financial institution has committed to provide bridge financing of $1.8 billion to Waters to fund in part the payment of the Waters Special Dividend, if any, and to pay fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on the terms and conditions set forth therein.

*Post-closing Governance.* The Merger Agreement provides that, as of the closing of the Merger, the Board of Directors of Waters (the "Board") will consist of eleven to twelve individuals, including (i) one or two individuals (as mutually determined by Waters and BD) that meet the requirements under the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") to be considered an independent director of the Board (which individuals will be selected prior to the closing of the Merger by BD after consultation in good faith with Waters) and (ii) ten individuals selected by Waters; provided that a majority of the members of the Board will meet the requirements under the rules and regulations of the NYSE to be considered independent directors of the Board.

*Closing Conditions.* Consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions under the Merger Agreement including, among others: (i) the accuracy of representations and warranties and compliance with covenants, subject to certain customary exceptions; (ii) the approval by Waters shareholders of the issuance of shares of Waters Common Stock pursuant to the Merger; (iii) the effectiveness of registration statements to be filed by Waters and SpinCo with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") in connection with the Proposed Transaction; (iv) the absence of any law restraining, enjoining, or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Reorganization, the Distribution or the Merger; (v) the consummation of the Reorganization, the Distribution and related transactions; (vi) the occurrence of the SpinCo Cash Distribution; (vii) the receipt of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding certain matters germane to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the transactions; (viii) the receipt of certain opinions of counsel as to tax matters pertaining to the Proposed Transaction; (ix) the receipt of certain U.S. and international regulatory approvals; and (x) the approval of the New York Stock Exchange of the listing on the NYSE of the newly issued shares of Waters Common Stock in the Merger.

*Representations, Warranties and Covenants.* Waters and BD (on behalf of itself and SpinCo) make certain customary and mutual representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among other things, covenants by BD not to take certain actions prior to the closing of the Proposed Transaction with respect to its business and the SpinCo Business without the prior approval of Waters. In addition, Waters also agreed not to take certain actions with respect to its business prior to the closing of the Merger without the approval of BD. Waters and BD have also agreed in the Merger Agreement to covenants to not solicit competing transactions.

*Termination.* The Merger Agreement contains specified termination rights for Waters and BD, including in the event that the Merger has not been consummated on or prior to July 13, 2026 (subject to extension in connection with outstanding regulatory approvals). Additionally, the Merger Agreement requires Waters to pay BD a termination fee of $733 million if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 2.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The above descriptions of each of the Separation Agreement and the Merger Agreement have been included to provide investors and security holders with information regarding the terms of each of the Separation Agreement and the Merger Agreement. They are not intended to provide any other factual information about Waters, BD, SpinCo, Merger Sub and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, or any of their respective businesses. The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that are solely for the benefit of parties thereto. The assertions embodied in those representations and warranties are qualified by information in confidential disclosure letters that the parties have exchanged in connection with signing the Merger Agreement as of a specific date. The disclosure letters contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Therefore, investors and security holders should not treat the representations and warranties as categorical statements of fact. Moreover, these representations and warranties may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be material to investors. They were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Merger Agreement and they are subject to more recent developments. Accordingly, investors and security holders should read the representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement not in isolation but only in conjunction with the other information about Waters and BD and their respective subsidiaries that the respective companies include in reports and statements they file with the SEC.

These forward-looking statements are based on Waters' and BD's current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties surrounding future expectations generally. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Waters' and BD's control. None of Waters, BD, SpinCo or any of their respective directors, executive officers, or advisors make any representation or provide any assurance or guarantee that the occurrence of the events expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements will actually occur, or if any of them do occur, what impact they will have on the business, results of operations or financial condition of Waters or BD. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, these developments could have a material adverse effect on Waters' and BD's businesses and the ability to successfully complete the Proposed Transaction and realize its benefits. The inclusion of such statements should not be regarded as a representation that such plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such plans, estimates or expectations include, among others, (1) that one or more closing conditions to the transaction, including certain regulatory approvals, may not be satisfied or waived, on a timely basis or otherwise, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the Proposed Transaction, may require conditions, limitations or restrictions in connection with such approvals or that the required approval by the stockholders of Waters may not be obtained; (2) the risk that the Proposed Transaction may not be completed on the terms or in the time frame expected by Waters, BD and SpinCo, or at all; (3) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the Proposed Transaction; (4) uncertainty of the expected financial performance of the combined company following completion of the Proposed Transaction; (5) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Proposed Transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the Proposed Transaction or integrating the businesses of Waters and SpinCo, on the expected timeframe or at all; (6) the ability of the combined company to implement its business strategy; (7) difficulties and delays in the combined company achieving revenue and cost synergies; (8) inability of the combined company to retain and hire key personnel; (9) the occurrence of any event that could give rise to termination of the Proposed Transaction; (10) the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with the Proposed Transaction or other litigation, settlements or investigations may affect the timing or occurrence of the Proposed Transaction or result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; (11) evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes; (12) changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions or any volatility resulting from the imposition of and changing policies around tariffs; (13) actions by third parties, including government agencies; (14) the risk that the anticipated tax treatment of the Proposed Transaction is not obtained; (15) the risk of greater than expected difficulty in separating the business of SpinCo from the other businesses of BD; (16) risks related to the disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to the pendency of the Proposed Transaction, or other effects of the pendency of the Proposed Transaction on the relationship of any of the parties to the transaction with their employees, customers, suppliers, or other counterparties; and (17) other risk factors detailed from time to time in Waters' and BD's reports filed with the SEC, including Waters' and BD's annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed with the SEC, including documents that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the Proposed Transaction. The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.

Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. None of Waters, BD or SpinCo undertakes, and each party expressly disclaims, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or development, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Approvals and Notifications for SpinCo Assets and Liabilities*. To the extent that the transfer or assignment (or in the case of any Permit, reissuance or replacement) of any SpinCo Asset, the assumption of any SpinCo Liability, the Reorganization, the Distribution or the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents requires any Approvals or Notifications, (x) the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to timely obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and timelines and (y) each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, as soon as reasonably practicable, any Approvals or Notifications to assign (or, to the extent requested to do so by the Company or RMT Partner, novate) all obligations under SpinCo Contracts and other obligations or Liabilities for which one or more members of the SpinCo Group are liable and that do not constitute SpinCo Liabilities or for which one or more members of the Company Group are liable and that do not constitute Company Liabilities, so that, in any such case, the members of the applicable Group will be solely responsible for the applicable Liabilities; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, except to the extent

------

expressly provided in this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or as otherwise agreed among the Parties, no Party shall be obligated to (and neither the Company nor any member of the Company Group nor, prior to the Distribution Time, SpinCo nor any member of the SpinCo Group shall, without the prior written consent of RMT Partner) (i) amend or modify any Contract in a manner adverse in any material respect to any member of the Company Group or the SpinCo Group, (ii) modify, relinquish, forbear or narrow any material right, (iii) contribute capital or pay any non-*de minimis* consideration in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person in order to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications, or (iv) commence any Action, in each case, in connection with the actions required by the foregoing clauses (x) and (y).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Delayed SpinCo Transfers*. If and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected transfer or assignment to the SpinCo Group of any SpinCo Asset or assumption by the SpinCo Group of any SpinCo Liability in connection with the Reorganization, the Distribution or any other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents would be a violation of applicable Law or require any Approval or Notification that has not been obtained or made by the Distribution Time then, unless the Parties shall otherwise mutually determine, the transfer or assignment to the SpinCo Group of such SpinCo Assets or the assumption by the SpinCo Group of such SpinCo Liabilities, as the case may be, shall be automatically deemed deferred and any such purported transfer, assignment or assumption shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Approval or Notification has been obtained or made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such SpinCo Assets or SpinCo Liabilities shall continue to constitute SpinCo Assets and SpinCo Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Treatment of Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities*.

In addition, the member of the Company Group retaining such Delayed SpinCo Asset or such Delayed SpinCo Liability shall, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, treat such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability in the ordinary course of business in accordance with SpinCo Business past practice and the Parties will take such other actions as they may reasonably agree in good faith (including entering into appropriate documentation formalizing the arrangements and treatment contemplated by this paragraph) in order to place the Parties in a substantially similar position as

------

if such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability had been transferred, assigned or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, including use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, and all costs and expenses related thereto, shall inure from and after the Distribution Time to the SpinCo Group. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law (including pursuant to a "determination" within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law)), each of the Company and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, (i) treat for all Tax purposes (x) any Delayed SpinCo Asset as an Asset owned by the Party entitled to such Delayed SpinCo Asset, and (y) any Delayed SpinCo Liability as a Liability of the Party intended to be responsible for such Delayed SpinCo Liability, in each case not later than the Distribution Time, and (ii) neither report nor take any Tax position (on a Tax Return or otherwise) inconsistent with such treatment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Transfer of Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities*. If and when the Approvals or Notifications, the absence of which caused the deferral of transfer or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.4(b)</u>, are obtained or made, and, if and when any other legal impediments to the transfer or assignment of any Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of any Delayed SpinCo Liability have been removed, the transfer or assignment of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Asset or the assumption of the applicable Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and/or any other applicable Transaction Document. The Company shall (x) be solely responsible for any and all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Taxes) incurred by the Company, RMT Partner, SpinCo or any members of their respective Groups to effect such transfer, assignment or assumption (<u>provided</u> that RMT Partner and SpinCo shall be obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such costs and expenses) and (y) promptly reimburse RMT Partner and SpinCo for any such out-of-pocket reasonable and documented costs, fees, expenses or other payments (including Taxes) incurred after the Distribution Time by SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Costs for Delayed SpinCo Assets and Delayed SpinCo Liabilities*. Any member of the Company Group retaining a Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability due to the deferral of the transfer or assignment of such Delayed SpinCo Asset or the deferral of the assumption of such Delayed SpinCo Liability, as the case may be, shall be promptly reimbursed by SpinCo or the member of the SpinCo Group entitled to the Delayed SpinCo Asset or Delayed SpinCo Liability for any costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and recording or similar fees) incurred in connection with the actions taken by such member of the Company Group pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.4(c)</u>. The Company shall cause the applicable member of

------

the Company Group to promptly pay to SpinCo or another member of the SpinCo Group any refunds or other amounts received by such member of the Company Group (including any refunds or credits of Taxes) in respect of costs, fees, expenses and other payments referred to in the prior sentence; <u>provided</u> that neither the Company nor any such members of the Company Group shall be required to make any payments to the extent it would place them in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such party would have been in if such payments referenced in the prior sentence were never made. The Company Group shall not knowingly allow the loss or diminution of value of any Delayed SpinCo Asset without first providing the SpinCo Group commercially reasonable notice of such potential loss or diminution in value and affording the SpinCo Group a commercially reasonable opportunity to take action to prevent such loss or diminution in value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Approvals and Notifications for Company Assets*. To the extent that the transfer or assignment (or, in the case of any Permit, reissuance or replacement) of any Company Asset, the assumption of any Company Liability, the Reorganization, the Distribution or the Merger or any other transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents requires any Approvals or Notifications, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to timely obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and timelines; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, except to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or as otherwise agreed among the Parties, no Party shall be obligated to contribute capital or pay any non-*de minimis* consideration in any form (including providing any letter of credit, guaranty or other financial accommodation) to any Person in order to obtain or make such Approvals or Notifications.

If and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected transfer or assignment to the Company Group of any Company Asset or assumption by the Company Group of any Company Liability in connection with the Reorganization, the Distribution or any other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents would be a violation of applicable Law or require any Approval or Notification that has not been obtained or made by the Distribution Time then, unless the Parties shall otherwise mutually determine, the transfer or assignment to the Company Group of such Company Assets or the assumption by the Company Group of such Company Liabilities, as the case may be, shall be deemed deferred and any such purported transfer, assignment or assumption shall be null and void until such time as all legal impediments are removed or such Approval or Notification has been obtained or made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Company Assets or Company Liabilities shall continue to constitute Company Assets and Company Liabilities for all other purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Company delivers to RMT Partner a Notice of Disagreement during the Review Period, the Company and RMT Partner will attempt to resolve in good faith the matters contained in the Notice of Disagreement within thirty (30) days after RMT Partner's receipt of the Notice of Disagreement (the "<u>Resolution Period</u>"). Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply to each of the Company and RMT Partner during any discussions or negotiations during the Resolution Period, and any subsequent dispute arising therefrom. If the Company and RMT Partner reach a written resolution with respect to all such matters (if any) on or before the final day of the Resolution Period, the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, as modified by such resolution, will be the "Final Adjustment Statement" for purposes of the payment (if any) contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>2.11(j)</u>. If such a resolution is not reached during the

------

Resolution Period, the Company and RMT Partner will promptly (no later than five (5) Business Days after the final day of the Resolution Period) (i) retain a nationally recognized independent certified public accounting firm in the United States mutually acceptable to the Company and RMT Partner or (ii) if the Company and RMT Partner are unable to agree on a firm within ten (10) days after the end of the Resolution Period, then, within an additional five (5) days, the Company and RMT Partner shall each select one such firm and those two firms shall, within five (5) days after their selection, select a third such firm (the firm selected in accordance with clause (i) or the third firm selected in accordance with clause (ii), as applicable, the "<u>Independent Accounting Firm</u>"). The Company and RMT Partner will enter into a customary engagement letter with the Independent Accounting Firm promptly after such selection and submit any unresolved objections covered by the Notice of Disagreement (the "<u>Disputed Items</u>") to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11(e)</u>, together with a copy of this Agreement and the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, promptly after entering into such engagement letter (but in any event, no later than ten (10) days after entering into such engagement letter); <u>provided</u>, that the Company and RMT Partner cannot assign a value to any Disputed Item that is more favorable to such Party than what such Party included in the Notice of Disagreement or the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, respectively. The Independent Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. In no event shall the Company or RMT Partner (or SpinCo) communicate (or permit any of the members of its respective Group or Representatives to communicate) with the Independent Accounting Firm without providing the other Party(ies) a reasonable opportunity to participate in such communication. The Company and RMT Partner will instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to (A) within thirty (30) days after submission of the Disputed Items, make a final determination with respect to each of the Disputed Items (and only the Disputed Items) that is (1) consistent with the terms of this Agreement and (2) within the range of the respective positions taken by each of the Company and RMT Partner and (3) based solely on written submissions of the Company and RMT Partner (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review), a copy of which shall simultaneously be provided to the other Party(ies), and in accordance with procedures agreed to by the Parties and the Independent Accounting Firm and (B) prepare and deliver to the Company and RMT Partner a written statement setting forth its final determination (and a reasonably detailed description of the basis therefor) with respect to each Disputed Item (the "<u>Independent Accounting Firm</u><u>'</u><u>s Report</u>"). The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to correcting mathematical errors and determining whether the Disputed Items were determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles, this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> and <u>Exhibit A</u>, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall not be permitted to make any other determination, including as to whether Target Net Working Capital is correct. The Independent Accounting Firm's determination with respect to each Disputed Item as reflected in the Independent Accounting Firm's Report will be final, conclusive and binding absent fraud or manifest error. The Preliminary Adjustment Statement, as modified by any changes thereto in accordance with any adjustments agreed in writing between the Company and RMT Partner during the Resolution Period and the Independent Accounting Firm's Report, will be the "Final Adjustment Statement" for purposes of the payment (if any) contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>2.11(i)</u>. With respect to any "estimated" item, such item shall be "final" pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> for purposes of calculating the Final Cash Transfer Amount whether by failure of the Company to deliver an objection to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, by mutual agreement between the Company and RMT Partner or by determination of the Independent Accounting Firm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Each of the Company and SpinCo will (A) pay its own respective costs and expenses incurred in connection with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> and (B) be responsible for the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in connection with this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> on a pro rata basis based upon the inverse of the degree to which the Independent Accounting Firm has accepted the respective positions of the Company and SpinCo (which will be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm and set forth in the Independent Accounting Firm's Report). For example, if the Independent Accounting Firm determines that it accepted seventy percent (70%) of the position of the Company, the Company will pay thirty percent (30%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm and SpinCo will pay the remaining seventy percent (70%) of such fees and expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) In connection with the matters set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u>, during the Review Period and Resolution Period, if applicable, each Party and its Representatives shall, subject to execution of customary access letters (if applicable), be provided access to all relevant work papers, schedules and other supporting documents prepared by the other Party or Parties, as applicable, the members of their respective Groups or their respective Representatives and used in connection with the calculation of Net Working Capital, SpinCo Cash, SpinCo Indebtedness and the SpinCo Expense Reimbursement and access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice and in a manner that does not adversely interfere with the conduct of such other Party's business, any other information in such other Party's possession which a Party reasonably requests, and each Party shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, cooperate reasonably with the requesting Party or Parties and its or their Representatives in connection therewith; <u>provided</u>, that in the event that the Party to whom the request has been made determines that any such provision of information could be detrimental to the Party providing the information, violate any Law or agreement, waive any legal privilege available under applicable Law, including any attorney-client privilege, attorney work product privilege, and confidentiality privileges applying to federally authorized tax practitioners under Section 7525 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local, foreign or other tax law), or breach any duty of confidentiality owed to any Person, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit compliance with such obligations to the extent and in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Company and RMT Partner agree that the procedures set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> for resolving disputes with respect to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement shall be the sole and exclusive method for resolving any such disputes; <u>provided</u> that this provision shall not prohibit any party from instituting litigation to enforce this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> including any decision pursuant to the terms hereof by the Independent Accounting Firm in any court of competent jurisdiction. The substance of the Independent Accounting Firm's determination shall not be subject to review or appeal, absent a showing of fraud or manifest error. It is the intent of the Parties to have any determination of Disputed Items by the Independent Accounting Firm proceed in an expeditious manner; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any deadline or time period contained herein may be extended or modified by agreement of the Parties, and the Parties agree that the failure of the Independent Accounting Firm to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall not be a basis for seeking to overturn any determination rendered by the Independent Accounting Firm.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Net Working Capital set forth in the Final Adjustment Statement is referred to herein as the "<u>Final Net Working Capital.</u>"

Any payment pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11(j)</u> shall be treated as an adjustment to the Cash Transfer for all U.S. federal (and applicable state, local and foreign) income tax purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) For the avoidance of doubt, the Net Working Capital of SpinCo, Final SpinCo Cash, Final SpinCo Indebtedness and the SpinCo Expense Reimbursement shall all be calculated for the purposes of this <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> and in the calculation of the Cash Transfer Amount and Final Cash Transfer Amount as of immediately prior to the Distribution and shall (i) be based exclusively on the facts and circumstances as they exist as of or immediately prior to the Distribution Time and (ii) entirely disregard (x) any and all effects on SpinCo and its Subsidiaries (including the assets and liabilities of SpinCo and its Subsidiaries) as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, other than with respect to the calculation of the SpinCo Expense Reimbursement) or of any financing or refinancing arrangements entered into at any time by RMT Partner or any other transaction entered into by RMT Partner in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement and (y) any of the plans, transactions, fundings, payments or changes which RMT Partner initiates or makes or causes to be initiated or made on or after the Closing with respect to SpinCo and its Subsidiaries or their business or assets, or any facts or circumstances that are unique or particular to RMT Partner or any of its assets or liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) It is intended that, following consummation of the actions contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>2.12(a)</u>, there will be in place a cash management process pursuant to which the SpinCo Accounts will be managed and funds collected will be transferred into one (1) or more accounts maintained by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) SpinCo shall have consummated the SpinCo Financing or the Permanent SpinCo Financing in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>2.15</u>, and shall have received net cash proceeds in respect of such financing equal to or greater than the amount of the SpinCo Cash Distribution, and the Company shall, acting reasonably and in good faith, be satisfied that, as of the Distribution Time, it shall have no Liability under the SpinCo Financing and/or Permanent SpinCo Financing;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) the conditions set forth in Article VIII of the Merger Agreement shall have been satisfied or validly waived, in each case other than those conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied substantially contemporaneously with the Distribution and/or the Merger; <u>provided</u> that such conditions are capable of being satisfied at such time;

Subject to the terms thereof, in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>3.3(d)</u>, each Record Holder shall be entitled to receive for all shares

------

of Company Common Stock held by such Record Holder as of the Record Date a number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock equal to (i) the total number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by the Company on the Distribution Date, <u>multiplied by</u> (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by such Record Holder on the Record Date and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding treasury shares held by any member of the Company Group).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) None of the Parties, nor any of their Affiliates shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of SpinCo Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) that are properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company, SpinCo, the Distribution Agent, or any other applicable withholding agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local, foreign or other tax law. Any deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons otherwise entitled thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon the consummation of the Spin-Off, the Company shall deliver to the Distribution Agent, a global certificate or book-entry authorization representing the SpinCo Common Stock being distributed in the Spin-Off, as the case may be, for the account of the Company's stockholders that are entitled thereto. The Distribution Agent shall hold such shares for the account of the Company's stockholders pending the Merger, as provided in Section 3.2 of the Merger Agreement. Immediately after the Distribution Time and prior to the Effective Time, the shares of SpinCo Common Stock shall not be transferable and the transfer agent for the SpinCo Common Stock shall not transfer any shares of SpinCo Common Stock. The Distribution shall be deemed to be effective upon written authorization from the Company to the Distribution Agent to proceed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) No action by any Record Holder shall be necessary for such Record Holder to receive the applicable number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock such Record Holder is entitled to in the Distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.4 <u>SpinCo Common Stock Issued to Company Subsidiaries</u>. In the event that any shares of SpinCo Common Stock are distributed in the Distribution to a Subsidiary of the Company that is a member of the Company Group, then, as promptly as practicable following such Subsidiary's receipt of such SpinCo Common Stock, the Company shall acquire such SpinCo Common Stock in exchange for an amount of cash equal to the fair market value of such SpinCo Common Stock as of the Distribution Date, as determined by the Company. As promptly as practicable following such acquisition and in all events prior to the Merger, the Company shall transfer such SpinCo Common Stock to SpinCo for no consideration, and such SpinCo Common Stock shall be cancelled and cease to be outstanding. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (a) the transitory existence of such SpinCo Common Stock is intended to be disregarded, and (b) the Company's payment of cash to such Subsidiary is intended to be treated as a distribution of property described in Section 301 of the Code.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.5 <u>Authorization of SpinCo Common Stock to Accomplish the Distribution</u>. Prior to the Distribution, the Company and SpinCo shall take all necessary action required to file a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of SpinCo with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, to increase the number of authorized shares of SpinCo Common Stock and make such other amendments as may be necessary or advisable in order to cause there to be issued and outstanding the number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock necessary to effect the Distribution and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to statements made explicitly in the Company's name in any Securities Filings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.4 <u>Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification, contribution or reimbursement pursuant to this <u>Article IV</u> or <u>Article V</u> will be net of Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of any indemnifiable Liability. Accordingly, the amount which either the Company or SpinCo, as applicable (an "<u>Indemnifying Party</u>"), is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder (an "<u>Indemnitee</u>") will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) from any Person by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Liability. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an "<u>Indemnity Payment</u>") required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or any other amounts in respect of such Liability, then reasonably promptly following receipt of such Insurance Proceeds, the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or such other amounts (net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof) had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Parties agree that an insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of any provision contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a "windfall" (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification and contribution provisions hereof. Each of the Company and SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the probability of success on the merits and the cost of expending such efforts, including attorneys' fees and expenses) to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable respecting the Liabilities for which indemnification or contribution may be available under this <u>Article IV</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may not delay making any indemnification payment required under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise satisfying any indemnification obligation, pending the outcome of any Action to collect or recover Insurance Proceeds, and an Indemnitee need not attempt to collect any Insurance Proceeds prior to making a claim for indemnification or contribution or receiving any Indemnity Payment otherwise owed to it under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to indemnify any SpinCo Indemnitees for any Liability pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.3</u> if and to the extent such Liability was reflected in the calculation of the Final Net Working Capital.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.5 <u>Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Notice of Claims.* If, at or following the Distribution Time, an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Company Group or the SpinCo Group or RMT Partner or any of its Subsidiaries of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a "<u>Third-Party Claim</u>") with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.2</u> or <u>4.3</u>, or any other Section of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as practicable, but in any event within twenty (20) days (or sooner if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, including the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnification, and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide notice in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(a)</u> shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the Indemnitee's failure to provide notice in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Control of Defense.* An Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and seek to settle or compromise), at its own expense and with its own counsel, any Third-Party Claim; <u>provided</u> that, prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming and controlling the defense of such Third-Party Claim, it shall first (i) confirm to the Indemnitee in writing that, assuming the facts presented to the Indemnifying Party by the Indemnitee are true, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnitee for any such damages to the extent resulting from, or arising out of, such Third-Party Claim and (ii) specify to the Indemnitee in writing any reservations or exceptions to such confirmation; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall pay the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees if the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal action, indictment or allegation or if such Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnitee (and not any Indemnifying Party or any of its Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense and, in the course of defending such Third-Party Claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party discovers that the facts presented at the time the Indemnifying Party acknowledged its indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim were not true in any or all material respects and (ii) such untruth provides a reasonable basis for asserting that the Indemnifying Party does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim, then (A) the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by such acknowledgment, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall promptly thereafter provide the Indemnitee written notice of its assertion that it does not have an indemnification obligation in respect of such Third-Party Claim and (C) the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(a)</u> (or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall provide written notice to the Indemnitee indicating whether the Indemnifying Party shall assume responsibility for defending the Third-Party Claim. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or

------

fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from an Indemnitee as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(a)</u>, then the Indemnitee that is the subject of such Third-Party Claim shall be entitled to continue to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Allocation of Defense Costs*. If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnitee for any such fees or expenses incurred by the Indemnifying Party during the course of the defense of such Third-Party Claim by such Indemnifying Party, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(a)</u>, and the Indemnitee conducts and controls the defense of such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party has an indemnification obligation with respect to such Third-Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Right to Monitor and Participate.* An Indemnitee that does not conduct and control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, or an Indemnifying Party that does not elect to defend any Third-Party Claim as contemplated hereby, nevertheless shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as necessary) of its own choosing to monitor and participate in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which it is a potential Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, and the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.5(c)</u> shall not apply to such fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to <u>Sections 6.7</u> and <u>6.8</u>, such Party shall cooperate with the Party entitled to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim in such defense and make available to the controlling Party, at the non-controlling Party's expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Party's possession or under such Party's control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the controlling Party. In addition to the foregoing, if any outside legal counsel to the Indemnitee reasonably determines in good faith that such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party have actual or potential differing defenses or conflicts of interest between them that make joint representation inappropriate, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ one firm of separate counsel (including local counsel as necessary) and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise or settlement thereof, and in such case the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of such counsel for all Indemnitees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *No Settlement.* An Indemnifying Party may not settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which an Indemnitee is seeking to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of such Indemnitee, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement or compromise (i) does not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnitee or contain any restriction or condition that would apply to such Indemnitee or to the conduct of that Person's business (other than the payment of monetary damages, which such damages are

------

fully payable by the settling or compromising Indemnifying Party), (ii) does not contain or involve any admission, statement, finding or determination providing for or acknowledging any liability or wrongdoing or violation of Law by such Indemnitee, and (iii) provides for, as a condition thereto, a full, unconditional and irrevocable release of such Indemnitee from all Liability in connection with the Third-Party Claim. No settlement or entry of judgment in respect of any Third-Party Claim shall be consented to by any Indemnitee without the express written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Tax Matters Agreement Governs.* The above provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u> and the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>4.6</u> do not apply to Taxes (it being understood and agreed that Taxes and Tax matters, including the control of Tax-related proceedings, shall be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.6 <u>Additional Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Timing of Payments.* Indemnification or contribution payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this <u>Article IV</u> shall be paid reasonably promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days of the final determination of the amount that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this <u>Article IV</u>) by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the Indemnitee, including reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification or contribution payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this <u>Article IV</u> shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee and (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Notice of Direct Claims.* Any claim for indemnification or contribution under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the applicable Indemnifying Party; <u>provided</u> that the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by the Indemnitee's failure to provide notice in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u>. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period, such specified claim shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party under this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6(b)</u> or, in the case of any written notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of the claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such thirty (30)-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall, subject to the provisions of <u>Article VII</u>, be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, as applicable, without prejudice to its continuing rights to pursue indemnification or contribution hereunder.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Pursuit of Claims Against Third Parties.* If (i) a Party incurs any Liability arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (ii) an adequate legal or equitable remedy is not available for any reason against the other Party to satisfy the Liability incurred by the incurring Party, and (iii) a legal or equitable remedy may be available to the other Party against a Third Party for such Liability, then the other Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the incurring Party, at the incurring Party's expense, to permit the incurring Party to obtain the benefits of such legal or equitable remedy against the Third Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Subrogation.* In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u>, such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Substitution.* In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to direct the defense or prosecution of the Action as set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>4.5</u>, <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u> and this <u>Section</u> <u>4.6</u>, and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all documented out-of-pocket costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys' fees, experts fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If an indemnification claim is covered by the indemnification provisions of any Transaction Document (other than this Agreement), the claim shall be made under such document or agreement and not under this Agreement. In no event shall any Party be entitled to double recovery for the same Losses from the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.7 <u>Right of Contribution</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Contribution*. If any right of indemnification contained in <u>Section</u> <u>4.2</u> or <u>4.3</u> is held unenforceable or is unavailable for any reason, or is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Liability for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by the Indemnitees as a result of such Liability (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the members of its Group, on the one hand, and the Indemnitees entitled to contribution, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Allocation of Relative Fault.* Solely for purposes of determining relative fault pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>4.7</u>: (i) any fault associated with the business conducted with the Delayed SpinCo Assets or Delayed SpinCo Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the Company Group) or with the ownership, operation or activities of the SpinCo Business shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of the Company or any other member of the Company Group; (ii) any fault associated with the business conducted with Delayed Company Assets or Delayed Company Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of a member of the SpinCo Group) shall be deemed to be the fault of Company and the other members of the Company Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group; and (iii) any fault associated with the ownership, operation or activities of the Company Business shall be deemed to be the fault of the Company and the other members of the Company Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of SpinCo or any other member of the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.8 <u>Covenant Not to Sue</u>. Each Party hereby covenants and agrees that none of it, the members of such Party's Group or any Person claiming through it shall bring suit or otherwise assert any claim against any Indemnitee, or assert a defense against any claim asserted by any Indemnitee, before any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative agency anywhere in the world, alleging that: (a) the assumption of any SpinCo Liabilities by SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents is void or unenforceable for any reason; (b) the retention of any Company Liabilities by the Company or a member of the Company Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents is void or unenforceable for any reason; or (c) the provisions of this <u>Article IV</u> are void or unenforceable for any reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.9 <u>Survival of Indemnities</u>. The rights and obligations of each of the Company and SpinCo and their respective Indemnitees under this <u>Article IV</u> shall survive (a) the sale or other transfer by either Party or any member of its Group of any assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities or (b) any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of all or substantially all of its Assets, restructuring, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction involving either Party or any of the members of its Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.10 <u>Exclusive Remedy</u>. The indemnification provisions of this <u>Article IV</u> shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of an Indemnitee for any monetary or compensatory damages or losses for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than the Merger Agreement and any other Transaction Documents that expressly provide otherwise) or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereby waives, for itself and its respective Group members, successors and assigns, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims or remedies such Person or any of its Group members may have against the other Party and its Group members, successors and assigns for any monetary or compensatory damages or losses for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (other than the Merger Agreement and any other Transaction Documents that expressly provide otherwise) or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby,

------

other than the right to seek indemnity pursuant to this <u>Article IV</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not affect (a) a Party's right to seek specific performance under this Agreement as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>10.11</u> or under the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document, in each case, as provided therein, or to seek resolution of any disputes regarding indemnification hereunder as provided in <u>Article VII</u>, (b) a Party's right to exercise all of their rights and seek all damages available to them under Law in the event of claims or causes of action arising from fraud and (c) the rights or obligations of any Person under any of the other Transaction Documents that expressly provide otherwise, or the Confidentiality Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.10</u> are not intended to, and will not be deemed to, alter or supersede (i) the indemnification, damages or remedy provisions contained in any of the Transition Services Agreement or the Contract Manufacturing Agreements, (ii) the rights and obligations of the Company and RMT Partner to resolve disputes with respect to the Final Adjustment Statement pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>2.11</u> or (iii) the rights and obligations of the Parties or any insurers under any Covered Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.11 <u>Management of Actions</u>. This <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u> shall govern the direction of pending and future Actions in which members of the SpinCo Group or the Company Group are named as parties, but shall not alter the allocation of Liabilities set forth in <u>Article II</u> unless expressly set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Management of SpinCo-Controlled Actions.* From and after the Distribution Time, the SpinCo Group shall direct the defense or prosecution of any Actions that constitute only SpinCo Liabilities, SpinCo Assets, Delayed SpinCo Assets or Delayed SpinCo Liabilities ("<u>SpinCo-Controlled Actions</u>"). If an Action that constitutes solely a SpinCo Liability, a SpinCo Asset, a Delayed SpinCo Asset or a Delayed SpinCo Liability is commenced after the Distribution Time naming a member of the Company Group as a party thereto, then SpinCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such member of the Company Group to be removed as a party to such Action. Neither the Company, on the one hand, nor SpinCo or RMT Partner, on the other hand, shall add the other to any Action pending as of or after the Distribution Time without the prior written consent of such other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Management of Company-Controlled Actions*. From and after the Distribution Time, the Company Group shall direct the defense or prosecution of any (i) Actions set forth on <u>Schedule</u> <u>4.11(b)</u> and (ii) any other Actions that constitute only Company Liabilities or Company Assets ("<u>Company-Controlled Actions</u>"). If an Action that constitutes solely a Company Liability or a Company Asset is commenced after the Distribution Time naming a member of the SpinCo Group as a party thereto, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such member of the SpinCo Group to be removed as a party to such Action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Management of Actions Naming Both SpinCo and the Company*. From and after the Distribution Time, in the event that one or more member(s) of the SpinCo Group and one or more member(s) of the Company Group is named in an Action that is neither a SpinCo-Controlled Action nor a Company-Controlled Action (a "<u>Separate Action</u>"), each of SpinCo and the Company shall be entitled to assume their own defense and select counsel of their own choosing to defend their respective interests in such Separate Action. SpinCo and the Company shall consult in good faith with each other regarding the management of the defense of each Separate Action.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Management of Mixed Actions.* From and after the Distribution Time, any Action that constitutes both a SpinCo Liability, a SpinCo Asset, a Delayed SpinCo Asset or a Delayed SpinCo Liability, on the one hand, and a Company Liability or a Company Asset, on the other hand, and that does not constitute a SpinCo-Controlled Action, Company-Controlled Action or a Separate Action ("<u>Mixed Action</u>") shall be managed by the Party with the greater financial exposure with respect thereto (taking into account the provisions of this <u>Article IV</u>), as determined in good faith by the Company and SpinCo; <u>provided</u> that any outside counsel employed by a Party managing the Action with respect thereto shall be subject to the approval of the other Party (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that if the Action involves the pursuit of any criminal sanctions or penalties or seeks equitable or injunctive relief against any Party or Subsidiary of a Party, that Party shall be entitled to control the defense of the claim against such Party; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any Action that seeks equitable or injunctive relief against multiple Parties or Subsidiaries of multiple Parties shall be deemed a Mixed Action and jointly managed in accordance with the remainder of this <u>Section</u> <u>4.11(d)</u>. The Company and SpinCo shall reasonably cooperate and consult with each other, and to the extent necessary or advisable, maintain a joint defense in a manner that would preserve for the Company and SpinCo and their respective Group members any attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect to Mixed Actions. The Party managing such Mixed Action shall on a quarterly basis, or if a material development occurs as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, inform the other Party of the status of and developments relating to any Mixed Action and provide copies of any material document, notices or other materials related to such Mixed Action; <u>provided</u> that the failure to provide any such information shall not be a basis for liability of a Party managing such Mixed Action except and solely to the extent the other Party shall have been actually prejudiced thereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company and SpinCo may jointly retain counsel (in which case the cost of counsel shall be shared by the Company and SpinCo in proportion to their respective expected financial exposure (in the case of Actions that constitute both a SpinCo Liability or a Delayed SpinCo Liability, on the one hand, and a Company Liability, on the other hand), as determined in good faith by the Company and SpinCo, or respective expected financial recovery (in the case of Actions that constitute both a SpinCo Asset or a Delayed SpinCo Asset, on the one hand, and a Company Asset, on the other hand)) or retain separate counsel (in which case each Party will bear the cost of its separate counsel) with respect to any Mixed Action; <u>provided</u> that the Company and SpinCo shall share discovery and other joint litigation costs in proportion to their respective expected financial exposure (in the case of Actions that constitute both a SpinCo Liability or a Delayed SpinCo Liability, on the one hand, and a Company Liability, on the other hand) or respective expected financial recovery (in the case of Actions that constitute both a SpinCo Asset or a Delayed SpinCo Asset, on the one hand, and a Company Asset, on the other hand). In any Mixed Action, each of the Company and SpinCo may pursue separate defenses, claims, counterclaims or settlements to those claims relating to the Company Business or the SpinCo Business, respectively; <u>provided</u> that each Party shall in good faith make all reasonable efforts to avoid adverse effects on the other Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if a judgment is obtained with respect to a Mixed Action, the Company and SpinCo shall endeavor in good faith to allocate the Liabilities in respect of such judgment between them based on the proportion of such Liabilities attributable to

------

the Company Business and the SpinCo Business and (ii) if a recovery is obtained with respect to a Mixed Action, the Company and SpinCo shall endeavor in good faith to allocate the Assets in respect of such recovery between them based on their respective injuries. A Party that is not named as a defendant in a Mixed Action may elect to become a party to such Mixed Action, and the Party named in such Mixed Action shall reasonably cooperate to have such first Party named in such Mixed Action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Delegation of Rights of Recovery*. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, the rights to recovery of each of the Company's Subsidiaries or SpinCo's Subsidiaries in respect of any past, present or future Action are hereby delegated to the Company or SpinCo, respectively. It is the intent of the Parties that the foregoing delegation shall satisfy any Law requiring such delegation to be effected pursuant to a power of attorney or similar instrument. The Parties and their respective Subsidiaries shall execute such further instruments or documents as may be necessary to effect such delegation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.12 <u>Settlement of Actions</u>. No Party managing an Action pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u> shall settle or compromise such Action (other than the Company with respect to Company-Controlled Actions and SpinCo with respect to SpinCo-Controlled Actions) without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except that if the Party managing the Action is indemnifying the other Party in full for all monetary damages arising out of or related to such Action, such managing Party may nevertheless settle such Action without such consent, unless such settlement or compromise would (a) result in any non-monetary remedy or relief being imposed upon any member of the other Party's Group, (b) encumber any asset of any member of the other Party's Group or (c) contain or involve an admission or statement providing for or acknowledging any liability or criminal wrongdoing on behalf of the other Party's Group or any of its Affiliates; <u>provided</u> that such settlement entered into by such managing Party must contain as a condition thereto, a complete release of the other Party being indemnified. No settlement or compromise in respect of any Action shall be made or consented to by any Party not managing an Action pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>4.11</u> without the express written consent of the Party managing such Action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.13 <u>Limitation on Certain Damages</u>.

CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1 <u>Insurance Matters</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company, RMT Partner and SpinCo agree to cooperate in good faith to provide for an orderly transition of insurance coverage from the date hereof through the Distribution Time. In no event shall the Company, any other member of the Company Group or any Company Indemnitee have Liability or obligation whatsoever to any member of the RMT Partner Group or SpinCo Group in the event that any (i) insurance policy or insurance policy-related contract shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason, shall be unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of any member of the RMT Partner Group or SpinCo Group for any reason whatsoever or shall be cancelled, not renewed or not extended beyond the current expiration date or (ii) any insurer declines, denies, delays or obstructs any claim payment; <u>provided</u> that nothing in this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(a)</u> shall relieve any Party of any liability or damages resulting from a breach of the Merger Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) With the sole exception of claims, losses, damages or Liability based upon or arising from any acts, omissions, events or circumstances that occurred or existed prior to the Distribution Time and which would be otherwise covered under any occurrence-based insurance policies of the Company or any member of the Company Group (collectively, the "<u>Covered Policies</u>"), from and after the Distribution Time, SpinCo, any member of the SpinCo Group, RMT Partner, any member of the RMT Partner Group, or any of their respective employees (including former or inactive employees) shall cease to be insured by, shall have no access or availability to or under, shall not be entitled to make claims on or under and shall not be entitled to claim benefits from or seek coverage under, and shall not have any rights to or under, any of the Company's or any member of the Company Group's insurance policies or any of their respective self-insured programs in place immediately prior to the Distribution Time. Solely with respect to the Covered Policies, from and after the Distribution Time, with respect to any claims, losses, damages or Liability based upon or arising from acts, omissions, events or circumstances that occurred or existed prior to the Distribution Time, the Company will provide RMT Partner and SpinCo with access to, and SpinCo and the SpinCo Group may make claims under, the Covered Policies, but solely to the extent that such policies provided coverage for members of the SpinCo Group or the SpinCo Business prior to the Distribution Time; <u>provided</u> that such access to, and the right to make claims under, such insurance policies, shall be subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of such insurance policies, including any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles, self-insured retentions and other fees and expenses, and shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) SpinCo shall notify the Company's Director of Risk Management (or such other Person of the Company if there is no Director of Risk Management), reasonably promptly, of any incident, circumstance or occurrence that may lead to a claim made by SpinCo pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(b)</u>;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) SpinCo shall reimburse the Company and the members of the Company Group for all claim-related payments made by the Company or any member of the Company Group on or after the Distribution Time that arise from claims made by SpinCo, any member of the SpinCo Group, RMT Partner, any member of the RMT Partner Group, any of their respective employees or any Third Party under the Company's or any member of the Company Group's self-insured, large deductible or fronted insurance programs for occurrences prior to the Distribution Time, including overhead, claim handling and administrative costs, taxes, surcharges, state assessments and other related costs. SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse the Company and the members of the Company Group for any deductibles, self-insured retention, fees, indemnity payments, settlements, judgments, legal fees, allocated claims expenses and claim handling fees, and other expenses incurred by the Company or any members of the Company Group to the extent resulting from any access to, or any claims made by SpinCo or any other members of the SpinCo Group, RMT Partner or any other members of the RMT Partner Group under, any of the Company's or a member of the Company Group's insurance policies provided pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(b)</u> whether such claims are made by SpinCo, its employees or Third Parties; <u>provided</u> that neither SpinCo nor any other member of the SpinCo Group shall owe any obligations of indemnification, reimbursement or otherwise pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(b)</u> with respect to any claims resulting from or arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or intentional misconduct of the Company or any other members of the Company Group; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) SpinCo shall exclusively bear (and neither the Company nor any members of the Company Group shall have any obligation to repay or reimburse SpinCo, any member of the SpinCo Group, RMT Partner or any member of the RMT Partner Group for) and shall be liable for all excluded, uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts (including where any insurer declines, denies, delays or obstructs any claim payment) of all such claims made by SpinCo, any member of the SpinCo Group, RMT Partner or any member of the RMT Partner Group under the policies as provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(b)</u>. Where a policy includes a reinstatement of limits, in the event an insurance policy aggregate is exhausted, or believed likely to be exhausted, due to noticed claims, the SpinCo Group, on the one hand, and the Company Group, on the other hand, shall be responsible for their pro rata portion of the reinstatement premium, if any, based upon the losses of such Group submitted to the Company's insurance carrier(s) (including any submissions prior to the Distribution Time). To the extent that the Company Group, on the one hand, or the SpinCo Group, on the other hand, is allocated more than its pro rata portion of such premium due to the timing of losses submitted to the Company's insurance carrier(s), the other party shall promptly pay the first party an amount so that each Group has been properly allocated its pro rata portion of the reinstatement premium. Subject to the following sentence, the Company, on the one hand, or SpinCo, on the other hand, may elect not to reinstate the policy aggregate even if available. In the event that the Company, on the one hand, or SpinCo, on the other hand, elects not to reinstate the policy aggregate, it shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party and shall have no rights to claim against or have any benefit from the reinstated limits. If either the Company, on the one hand, or SpinCo, on the other hand, elects to reinstate the policy aggregate, such Party shall be responsible for all reinstatement premiums and other costs associated with such reinstatement to the extent such Party has received notice from the other Party that such other Party does not elect to reinstate the limits.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) At the Distribution Time, SpinCo shall have in effect, and RMT Partner shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with SpinCo in its efforts to obtain or effect, all insurance programs required to comply with SpinCo's contractual obligations and such other policies required by Law or as reasonably necessary or appropriate for the SpinCo Business and the operation thereof by the SpinCo Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Neither SpinCo, RMT Partner, any member of the SpinCo Group nor any member of the RMT Partner Group, in connection with making a claim under any insurance policy of the Company or any member of the Company Group pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u>, shall take any action that would be reasonably likely to: (i) have a material and adverse impact on the then-current relationship between the Company or any member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and the applicable insurance company, on the other hand; (ii) result in the applicable insurance company terminating or materially reducing coverage, or materially increasing the amount of any premium owed by the Company or any member of the Company Group under the applicable insurance policy; or (iii) otherwise compromise, jeopardize or interfere in any material respect with the rights of the Company or any member of the Company Group under the applicable insurance policy; <u>provided</u> that SpinCo's, any member of the SpinCo Group's, RMT Partner's, any member of the RMT Partner Group's, any of their respective employees' or any Third Party's making and pursuing of a claim to coverage pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>5.1(b)(ii)</u> shall not be deemed to be an action that triggers the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any payments, costs, adjustments or reimbursements to be paid by SpinCo and/or RMT Partner pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>5.1</u> shall be billed quarterly and payable within thirty (30) days from receipt of an invoice from the Company. The Company shall retain the exclusive right to control its insurance policies and programs, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its insurance policies and programs and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such insurance policies and programs, notwithstanding whether any such policies or programs apply to any SpinCo Liabilities and/or claims SpinCo has made or could make in the future, and no member of the SpinCo Group or RMT Partner Group shall erode, exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with the Company's insurers with respect to any of the Company's insurance policies and programs, or amend, modify or waive any rights under any such insurance policies and programs; <u>provided</u> that the Company shall not terminate or make any material amendments, modifications or waivers to, or concessions under, any of the Covered Policies without providing RMT Partner with reasonable notice prior to taking any such actions. SpinCo and RMT Partner shall cooperate with the Company and, upon reasonable request by the Company, share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit the Company to manage and conduct its insurance matters as the Company deems appropriate. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and SpinCo, on the other hand, and any member of its applicable Group has the sole right to settle or otherwise resolve Third-Party Claims made against it or any member of its applicable Group covered under an applicable insurance policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the Company Group in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 <u>Late Payments</u>. Except as expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document, any amount not paid when due pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Document (and any amounts billed or otherwise invoiced or demanded and properly payable that are not paid within ten (10) days of a notice of non-payment) shall accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate published in the *Wall Street Journal* for the relevant period plus two percent (2%).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 <u>Treatment of Payments for Tax Purposes</u>. For all applicable Tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat any payment required by this Agreement as set forth in Section 12 of the Tax Matters Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 <u>Post-Distribution Time Conduct</u>. The Parties acknowledge that, after the Distribution Time, each Party shall be independent of the other Party, with responsibility for its own actions and inactions and its own Liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from the conduct of its business, operations and activities following the Distribution Time, except as may otherwise be provided in the Merger Agreement or any Transaction Document, and each Party shall (except as otherwise provided in <u>Article IV</u>) use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent such Liabilities from being inappropriately borne by the other Party.

EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1 <u>Agreement for Exchange of Information</u>.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Tax Matters Agreement will exclusively govern the retention of Tax-related records and the exchange of Tax-related information, and the Employee Matters Agreement will exclusively govern the retention of employment and benefits-related records.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 <u>Limitations of Liability</u>.

------

connection with any Action in which the requesting Party (or member of its Group) may from time to time be involved, regardless of whether such Action is a matter with respect to which indemnification may be sought hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the Company shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any proposed sale, spin-off or other disposition of the SpinCo Business or the preparation, negotiation or execution of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or any other transaction including or regarding the SpinCo Business in lieu of any of the foregoing. RMT Partner and SpinCo shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any SpinCo Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or the RMT Partner Group, on the one hand, or any member of the Company Group, on the other hand; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If the Parties do not agree as to whether certain information is Privileged Information, then such information shall be treated as Privileged Information, and the Party that believes that such information is Privileged Information shall be entitled to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any such information unless the Parties otherwise agree. The Parties shall use the procedures set forth in <u>Article VII</u> to resolve any disputes as to whether any information relates solely to the Company Business, solely to the SpinCo Business, or to both the Company Business and the SpinCo Business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Subject to the remaining provisions of this <u>Section</u> <u>6.8</u>, the Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege or immunity with respect to all privileges and immunities not allocated pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>6.8(b)</u> and all privileges and immunities relating to any Actions or other matters that involve both Parties (or one (1) or more members of their respective Groups) and in respect of which both Parties have Liabilities under this Agreement, and that no such shared privilege or immunity may be waived by either Party without the consent of the other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any Dispute arises between the Parties or any members of their respective Groups regarding whether a privilege or immunity should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either Party and/or any member of their respective Groups, each Party agrees that it shall: (i) negotiate with the other Parties in good faith; (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Parties; and (iii) not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Parties. Further, each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold its consent to the waiver of a privilege or immunity for any purpose except in good faith to protect its own legitimate interests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the event of any Dispute between the Company and SpinCo or RMT Partner, or any members of their respective Groups, either Party may waive a privilege in which the other Party or member of such other Party's Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining consent pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>6.8(c)</u>; <u>provided</u> that the Parties intend such waiver of a shared privilege to be effective only as to the use of information with respect to the Action between the Parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and is not intended to operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to any Third Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Upon receipt by either Party, or by any member of its respective Group, of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of Privileged Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which another Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if either Party obtains knowledge that any of its, or any member of its respective Group's, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party or Parties of the existence of the request (which notice shall be delivered to such other Party no later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of any such subpoena, discovery or other request) and shall provide the other Party or Parties a reasonable opportunity to review the Privileged Information and to assert any rights it or they may have under this <u>Section</u> <u>6.8</u> or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any furnishing of, or access or transfer of, any information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of the Parties set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.8</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>6.9</u> to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable privileges and immunities. The Parties agree that their respective rights to any access to information, witnesses and other Persons, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and members of their respective Groups as needed pursuant to this Agreement, shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) In connection with any matter contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>6.7</u> or this <u>Section</u> <u>6.8</u>, the Parties agree to, and to cause the applicable members of their Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain their respective separate and joint privileges and immunities, including by executing joint defense and/or common interest agreements where necessary or useful for this purpose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.9 <u>Confidentiality</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Article VI</u>, (i) to the extent that the Merger Agreement, a Transaction Document or other Contract other than this Agreement pursuant to which a Party or another Person in its respective Group is bound or its confidential and proprietary information is subject provides that certain information shall be confidentially maintained on a basis that is more protective of such information or for a longer period of time than provided for herein, then the applicable provisions contained in the Merger Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, such Transaction Document or other Contract shall control with respect thereto and (ii) a Party and the applicable members of its respective Group shall have no right to use any confidential or proprietary information of the disclosing Party unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreement, another Transaction Document or a Contract between the Parties or a member of its respective Group. Each Party further acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.9</u> to the contrary, (i) representatives of the Company and the members of the Company Group may retain certain residual knowledge of the confidential and proprietary information concerning SpinCo or a member of the SpinCo Group and (ii) representatives of SpinCo and the members of the SpinCo Group may retain certain residual knowledge of the Company or a member of the Company Group, in each case, that are or may be indistinguishable from generalized industry knowledge and, accordingly, each Party acknowledges and agrees that nothing herein shall prohibit any Party (or its Group) from using or otherwise exploiting for its own benefit or for the benefit of any third Person such residual knowledge; <u>provided</u> that (A) such residual knowledge has been retained solely in the unaided memory of the Company, SpinCo or such representatives, as applicable (in each case, without intentional memorization) in intangible form and without use, copying or reference to any documented or tangible copies of the other Party's or the members of its Group's confidential and proprietary information, and is not intentionally used in a manner that would breach, or would reasonably be expected to encourage a breach, of this <u>Section</u> <u>6.9</u>, (B) the foregoing will not be deemed in any event to provide any right for any member of the Company Group to infringe any SpinCo Intellectual Property or any rights of any third parties that have licensed or provided materials to the SpinCo Business, or otherwise to grant any license with respect to any SpinCo Intellectual Property (which license rights shall be solely contained in the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement), (C) the foregoing will not be deemed in any event to provide SpinCo with any right to infringe any Intellectual Property of the Company or any rights of any third parties that have licensed or provided material to the Company, or otherwise to grant any license with respect to any Intellectual Property of the Company (which license rights shall be solely contained in this Agreement and the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement), and (D) other than as expressly set forth in the Merger Agreement or any Transaction Document, any use of such residual knowledge is on an "as-is, where-is" basis, with all faults and all representations and warranties disclaimed and at the sole risk of such Representatives, the Company, SpinCo and each Parties' Group, as applicable.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Confidentiality.* Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>6.10</u>, and except as contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any other Transaction Document, from and after the Distribution Time until the three (3)-year anniversary of the Distribution Time, each of the Company, RMT Partner and SpinCo, on behalf of itself and each member of its respective Group, agrees to hold, and to cause its respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to its own confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Distribution Time, all confidential and proprietary information concerning the other Party or any member of the other Party's Group or their respective businesses that is either in its possession (including confidential and proprietary information in its possession prior to the date hereof) or furnished by any such other Party or any member of such Party's Group or their respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or otherwise, and shall not use any such confidential and proprietary information other than for such purposes as shall be expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such confidential and proprietary information has been (i) in the public domain or generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Party or any member of such Party's Group or any of their respective Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such Party (or any member of such Party's Group) which sources are not themselves known by such Party (or any member of such Party's Group) to be bound by a confidentiality obligation or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality with respect to such confidential and proprietary information, or (iii) independently developed or generated without reference to or use of any proprietary or confidential information of the other Party or any member of such Party's Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing three (3)-year period, the Company's, RMT Partner's and SpinCo's obligations with respect to confidential and proprietary information that constitutes Trade Secrets shall survive and continue for so long as such confidential and proprietary information retains its status as a Trade Secret. If any confidential and proprietary information of one Party or any member of its Group is disclosed to the other Party or any member of such other Party's Group in connection with providing services to such first Party or any member of such first Party's Group under this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document, then such disclosed confidential and proprietary information shall be used only as required to perform such services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *No Release; Return or Destruction.* Each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any information addressed in <u>Section</u> <u>6.9(a)</u> to any other Person, except its Representatives who reasonably need to know such information in their capacities as such (who shall be advised of their obligations hereunder with respect to such information), and except in compliance with <u>Section</u> <u>6.10</u>. Without limiting the foregoing, when any such information is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document, and is no longer subject to any legal hold or other document preservation obligation, each Party will promptly after written request of the other Party either return to the other Party all such information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or notify the other Party in writing that it has destroyed such information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts

------

or summaries based thereon); <u>provided</u> that the Parties may retain electronic back-up versions of such information maintained on routine computer system backup tapes, disks or other backup storage devices; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that any such information so retained shall remain subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Third-Party Information; Privacy or Data Protection Laws.* Each Party acknowledges that it and members of its Group may presently have and, following the Distribution Time, may gain access to or possession of confidential or proprietary information of, or legally protected Personal Information (including personal health information) relating to, Third Parties (i) that was received under privacy policies or notices and/or confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements entered into between such Third Parties, on the one hand, and the other Party or members of such other Party's Group, on the other hand, prior to the Distribution Time; or (ii) that, as between the two Parties, was originally collected by the other Party or members of such other Party's Group and that may be subject to and protected by privacy policies or notices, as well as applicable data privacy Laws or other applicable Laws. Each Party agrees that it shall hold, protect and use, and shall cause the members of its Group and its and their respective Representatives to hold, protect and use, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of, or legally protected Personal Information (including personal health information) relating to, Third Parties in accordance with the obligations outlined in the applicable privacy policies (<u>provided</u> that such policies were made available to the other Party prior to the receipt of such confidential and proprietary information or Personal Information) or notices and applicable data privacy Laws or other applicable Laws and the terms of any agreements that were either entered into before the Distribution Time or affirmative commitments or representations that were made before the Distribution Time by, between or among the other Party or members of the other Party's Group, on the one hand, and such Third Parties, on the other hand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>Section</u> <u>6.9</u>, to the extent that the treatment, maintenance, use, non-use, disclosure or non-disclosure of any confidential and proprietary information concerning a Party or any member of the other Party's Group or their respective businesses is expressly addressed in the Merger Agreement or in any Transaction Document, the applicable terms of such document or agreement will control in such situations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.10 <u>Protective Arrangements</u>. In the event that the Company or any member of its Group, on the one hand, or SpinCo or RMT Partner or any member of their respective Groups, on the other hand, either is requested or required to disclose any information pursuant to applicable Law or receives any request or demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide information of the other Party(ies) (or any member of the other Party(ies)'s Group) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party(ies) shall notify the other Party(ies) (to the extent legally permitted) as promptly as practicable under the circumstances and shall cooperate, at the expense of the other Party(ies), in seeking any appropriate protective order. The Party(ies) receiving the request or demand shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to take, at the expense of the other Party(ies), reasonable steps necessary to obtain confidential treatment of such information. Subject to the foregoing, the Party(ies) that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent requested or required by such Law or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.11 <u>Technology Transfer</u>.

The Party(ies) receiving the request or demand shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to take, at the expense of the other Party(ies), reasonable steps necessary to obtain confidential treatment of such information. Subject to the foregoing, the Party(ies) that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide information to the extent requested or required by such Law or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority.

ARTICLE VII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 <u>Negotiation</u>. Except as specifically provided, subject to <u>Section</u> <u>7.4</u>, any Party seeking resolution of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (including regarding whether any Assets are SpinCo Assets or Company Assets, any Liabilities are SpinCo Liabilities or Company Liabilities or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination of this Agreement or any Transaction Document) (a "<u>Dispute</u>"), shall provide written notice thereof to the Chief Financial Officer of the Company or RMT Partner, as applicable, with a copy provided to the General Counsel of the Company or RMT Partner, as applicable (the "<u>Negotiation Request</u>"). As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a Negotiation Request, an appropriate executive or other representative at a senior level of management of each of the Company and RMT Partner (or, if the Parties agree, of the appropriate strategic business unit or division within such entity) identified by the Chief Financial Officers of each of the Company and RMT Partner, as applicable, shall begin conducting good faith negotiations with respect to such Dispute. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If the Company and RMT Partner are unable for any reason to resolve a Dispute through such negotiations within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Negotiation Request, and such thirty (30)-day period is not extended by mutual written consent of the Company and RMT Partner, the Dispute shall be submitted to mediation in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>7.2</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 <u>Mediation</u>. In the event that a Dispute has not been resolved within thirty (30) days of the receipt of a Negotiation Request in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u> or within such longer period as the Parties may agree to in writing, then such Dispute shall, upon the written request of the Company or RMT Partner (the "<u>Mediation Request</u>"), be submitted to mandatory mediation in accordance with the International Institute for Conflict Prevention & Resolution ("<u>CPR</u>") Mediation Procedure (the "<u>Procedure</u>"), then in effect, except as modified herein. The mediation shall be held in (i) New York, New York or (ii) such other place as the Parties may mutually agree in writing. The Company and RMT Partner shall have twenty (20) days from receipt of a Mediation Request to agree on a mediator. If no mediator has been agreed upon by

------

the Company and RMT Partner within twenty (20) days of receipt of a Mediation Request, then the Company or RMT Partner may request (on written notice to the other Party) that CPR appoint a mediator in accordance with the Procedure. If the Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days of the appointment of a mediator, or within such longer period as the Parties may agree to in writing, either the Company or RMT Partner may commence litigation in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>10.3</u>; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if one Party fails to participate in the mediation, the other Party may commence litigation in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>10.3</u> prior to the expiration of the time periods set forth above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3 <u>Litigation</u>. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this <u>Article VII</u>, a Party may seek preliminary provisional or injunctive judicial relief with respect to a Dispute without first complying with the procedures set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.1</u> and <u>7.2</u> if such action is reasonably necessary to avoid irreparable damage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4 <u>Conduct During Dispute Resolution Process</u>. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall, and shall cause the respective members of their Groups to, continue to honor all commitments under this Agreement and each Transaction Document to the extent required by such agreements during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this <u>Article VII</u>, unless such commitments are the specific subject of the Dispute at issue.

ARTICLE VIII

FURTHER ASSURANCES AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1 <u>Further Assurances</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In addition to the actions provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the Parties shall (and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to), prior to, on and after the Distribution Time, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws, regulations and agreements to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without limiting the foregoing, prior to, on and after the Distribution Time, each Party hereto shall cooperate with the other Parties, and without any further consideration, but at the expense of the requesting Party, to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all instruments, including instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and to make all filings with, and to obtain all Approvals or Notifications of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person under any permit, license, agreement, indenture or other instrument (including any consents or Governmental Approvals), and to take all such other actions as such Party may reasonably be requested to take by the other Parties from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the transfers of the SpinCo Assets and the Company Assets and the assignment and assumption of the SpinCo Liabilities and the Company Liabilities and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party will, at the reasonable request, cost and expense of the requesting Party, take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to vest in the Company or SpinCo, as the case may be, good and marketable title to the Assets allocated to such Party under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, free and clear of any Security Interest, if and to the extent it is practicable to do so.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On or prior to the Distribution Time, the Company and SpinCo in their respective capacities as direct and indirect stockholders of the members of their Groups shall each ratify any actions which are reasonably necessary or desirable to be taken by the Company, SpinCo or any of the members of their respective Groups, as the case may be, to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Following the Distribution Time, SpinCo shall be responsible for recording the applicable assignment of SpinCo Intellectual Property to SpinCo or its designees with the intellectual property offices and registrars and other similar authorities where SpinCo Intellectual Property is still recorded in the name of the Company or any of its Affiliates (other than another member of the SpinCo Group). Following SpinCo's reasonable request, following the Distribution Time, the Company shall, and shall cause the other members of its Group to, exercise its reasonable efforts to cooperate with SpinCo in connection therewith. In the event that the Company is required to take any action in order for SpinCo to complete recordation of such SpinCo Intellectual Property in accordance with the first sentence of this <u>Section</u> <u>8.1(d)</u>, then following SpinCo's reasonable request, the Company shall, and shall cause the other members of its Group to, exercise its reasonable efforts to cooperate with SpinCo as may be required to effectuate such recordation. The Company shall reimburse SpinCo for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket government filing fees incurred in connection with initial recordation of ownership in the name of SpinCo or its designees; <u>provided</u> that such fees are incurred and invoiced to the Company within twelve (12) months following the Distribution Date. SpinCo shall bear the first two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000) of agent fees, translation costs, or other professional or administrative service fees incurred in connection with the activities described in this <u>Section</u> <u>8.1(d)</u>, and the Company and SpinCo shall bear equally (i.e., fifty percent (50%) each) any such costs or fees in excess of two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000); <u>provided</u> that any such costs and fees are incurred and invoiced to the Company within two (2) years following the Distribution Date. Further, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to provide SpinCo, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Distribution Time, with an extract of any information constituting SpinCo Books and Records maintained in the Company's docketing system (Anaqua) in connection with any SpinCo Intellectual Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 <u>Use of the BD Name</u> <u>and BD Marks</u>. SpinCo and RMT Partner undertake to (and to cause the members of their respective Groups to) discontinue the use of the name "BD", "Becton Dickinson" and other Trademarks owned by the Company and used in the operation of the SpinCo Business (other than those Trademarks included in the SpinCo Intellectual Property) (the "<u>Company Marks</u>") as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution Time, but in any case not longer than a three (3)-year period commencing on the Distribution Date, except in the case of a Deferred SpinCo Local Business, in which case not longer than the later of (x) a two (2)-year period commencing on the date of the local closing applicable to such Deferred SpinCo Local Business and (y) a period commencing on the date of the local closing applicable to such Deferred SpinCo Local Business and ending on the three year anniversary of the Distribution Date; <u>provided</u> that the applicable period shall be extended if

------

use of the Company Marks is required in connection with the sale of Inventory (subject to this <u>Section</u> <u>8.2</u>), regulatory registrations, or otherwise required by applicable regulatory requirements, which extension shall be for no longer than the minimum period required by such requirements (the "<u>Transition Period</u>"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, effective as of the Distribution Time, the Company, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby grants to the members of the SpinCo Group a non-exclusive, sublicensable, worldwide and royalty-free license to continue to temporarily use the Company Marks and related trademark symbols in legal entity names, for the sale of Inventory containing such name or trademark applied to such products created and for the related regulatory registrations for such Inventory: (a) prior to the Distribution Time or (b) during the applicable Transition Period; <u>provided</u> that SpinCo shall (and shall cause the members of the SpinCo Group and its sublicensees to) use the Company Marks solely to the extent and in substantially the same manner as used by the SpinCo Business in the twelve (12) months immediately prior to the Distribution Time and at a level of quality substantially similar to that in effect as of the Distribution Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group shall not be prohibited from continuing to use the Company Marks after the Distribution Time (i) as required by applicable Law and to the extent required to perform any contractual obligations pursuant to any SpinCo Contracts (<u>provided</u> that RMT Partner and SpinCo shall use reasonable best efforts to amend and/or modify any such SpinCo Contracts to minimize SpinCo's and the other members of the SpinCo Group's obligations to use the Company Marks after the Distribution Time), (ii) on internal business and legal documents and items and (iii) in a neutral, non-trademark manner to describe the history of the SpinCo Business and otherwise as permitted by "fair use" principles; <u>provided</u> that such use does not suggest sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation with the Company or the members of its Group or give rise to a likelihood of confusion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 <u>Cooperation</u>. Between the date hereof and the earlier of the Distribution Date and valid termination of this Agreement, the Parties shall and shall cause their respective Groups to, at their own cost and expense, cooperate and work together in good faith to prepare and plan for the smooth and orderly transition of the SpinCo Business to RMT Partner; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that neither Party shall be required to agree to (a) any amendment, modification or other change to this Agreement, Merger Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (b) any non-*de minimis* payment or concession with an adverse effect on such Party (other than any payment or concession that is fully reimbursed by the other Party), in each case, in connection with the cooperation process described in this Section 8.3. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Company and RMT Partner shall ensure that appropriate representatives of the Company or RMT Partner and their respective Groups (as applicable) with sufficient knowledge and qualifications to prepare and plan for the transition of the operations of the SpinCo Business shall participate in transition service planning meetings (in-person or virtually) on a regular basis as reasonably agreed between the Company and RMT Partner, to discuss the overall status and plans for the transition of the SpinCo Business to RMT Partner and such other matters as may be reasonably agreed between RMT Partner and the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.4 <u>Ancillary Agreements</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each of the Company, SpinCo and RMT Partner agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate in good faith to finalize the Contract Manufacturing Agreements (including the schedules and exhibits thereto) so that such agreements shall be

------

executed on the Closing Date, taking into consideration the nature and circumstances of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any key terms or principles set forth on <u>Schedule</u><u> </u><u>8.4(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) each such Person has the requisite corporate or other power and authority and has taken all corporate or other action necessary in order to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes a valid and binding agreement of it enforceable in accordance with the terms thereof.

Each Party expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp, electronic or mechanical signature (regardless of whether delivered in person, by mail, by courier, by facsimile or by e-mail in portable document format (PDF)) made in its respective name as if it were a manual signature delivered in person, agrees that it will not assert that any such signature or delivery is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and delivered in person and agrees that, at the reasonable request of the other Party at any time, it will as promptly as reasonably practicable cause each such Transaction Document to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof) and delivered in person, by mail or by courier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 <u>Survival of Covenants</u>. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the covenants and other agreements contained in this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, and liability for the breach of any covenants and other agreements contained herein or therein, shall survive each of the Reorganization, the Distribution and the Merger, and shall remain in full force and effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Agreement and, unless expressly provided therein, each other Transaction Document (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or thereto or to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or to the inducement of any party to enter herein and therein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Delaware including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4 <u>Assignability</u>. Except as set forth in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, this Agreement and each other Transaction Document shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and the parties thereto, respectively, and their respective successors and permitted assigns; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that neither Party nor any such party thereto may assign its rights or delegate its obligations under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document without the express prior written consent of the other Party hereto or other parties thereto, as applicable.

If any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.8 <u>No Set-Off</u>. Except as expressly set forth in any Transaction Document or as otherwise mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties, neither Party nor any member of such Party's group shall have any right of set-off or other similar rights with respect to (a) any amounts received pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or (b) any other amounts claimed to be owed to the other Party or any member of its Group arising out of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.9 <u>Headings</u>.

Waiver by a Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of the other Party. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver by any Party of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party so waiving; <u>provided</u> that, prior to the Effective Time, unless the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms, any waiver by SpinCo that is adverse in any material respect to RMT Partner shall require the prior written consent of RMT Partner.

Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.12 <u>Amendments</u>.

It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the references to holders of SpinCo Common Stock other than the Overlap Shareholders in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.1(c)(i)</u>, this distinction is being made solely for the purposes of the calculation of the Exchange Ratio and is not intended to, and does not, describe which holders of SpinCo Common Stock receive shares of RMT Partner Common Stock in the Merger, which is described in <u>Section</u> <u>3.1(a)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If the Exchange Ratio is increased pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.1(c)(i)</u>, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) *Step 2.* If the Aggregate Adjustment Amount exceeds the Step 1 Cap, then (i) the amount of the SpinCo Cash Distribution shall be decreased by an amount equal to 40% of the Step 2 Adjustment Amount, and (ii) the RMT Partner Special Dividend shall be increased further by an amount equal to 60% of the Step 2 Adjustment Amount (it being understood that the increase in the RMT Partner Special Dividend described in this <u>clause (ii)</u> shall be in addition to the increase to the RMT Partner Special Dividend described in Step 1 above); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) *Step 3.* If the Aggregate Adjustment Amount exceeds the sum of the Step 1 Cap and the Step 2 Cap, then (i) the amount of the SpinCo Cash Distribution shall be decreased further by an amount equal to 50% of the Step 3 Adjustment Amount (it being understood that such decrease in the SpinCo Cash Distribution described in this <u>clause (i)</u> shall be in addition to the decrease in the SpinCo Cash Distribution described in Step 2 above), and (ii) the RMT Partner Special Dividend shall be increased further by an amount equal to 50% of the Step 3 Adjustment Amount (it being understood that the increase in the RMT Partner Special Dividend described in this <u>clause (ii)</u> shall be in addition to the increase to the RMT Partner Special Dividend described in Steps 1 and 2 above).

------

If the Aggregate Adjustment Amount exceeds the Aggregate Cap (the amount by which the Aggregate Adjustment Amount exceeds the Aggregate Cap, the "<u>Excess Adjustment Amount</u>"), then (1) RMT Partner shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to further increase the RMT Partner Special Dividend up to the Excess Adjustment Amount; and (2) the Company shall, in its sole discretion, be entitled to further decrease the amount of the SpinCo Cash Distribution up to the Excess Adjustment Amount. If the Aggregate Adjustment Amount exceeds the Aggregate Cap and the sum of (i) the increase in clause (1) of the prior sentence and (ii) the absolute value of the decrease in clause (2) of the prior sentence is less than the Excess Adjustment Amount, then the Exchange Ratio shall not be increased as contemplated by <u>Section</u> <u>3.1(c)(i)</u>, and neither the Company nor RMT Partner shall be obligated to consummate the transactions contemplated to occur at the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) "<u>Step 2 Adjustment Amount</u>" shall mean the lesser of (x) the Aggregate Adjustment Amount *minus* the Step 1 Cap and (y) the Step 2 Cap (or, if clauses (x) and (y) are equal, such amount).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(G) "<u>Step 2 Cap</u>" shall mean $5,000,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(H) "<u>Step 3 Cap</u>" shall mean $500,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The determination as to whether the percentage of RMT Partner Common Stock to be received in the Merger by holders of SpinCo Common Stock with respect to Qualified SpinCo Common Stock (other than the Overlap Shareholders), together with the number of aggregate Overlap Shares for all Overlap Shareholders (if any), meets the Threshold Percentage shall be made jointly by RMT Partner and the Company acting reasonably and in good faith and in consultation with their respective outside legal counsel and tax advisors. In furtherance thereof, (A) during the Interim Period, RMT Partner and the Company shall promptly notify the other upon it becoming

The Company and RMT Partner shall consider and discuss in good faith any comments to the Exchange Ratio Increase Amount, the Aggregate Adjustment Amount or the Excess Adjustment Amount (if any) proposed by the other Party and seek to determine the final amounts thereof as promptly as practicable following the Determination Time.

Any interest or other income from such investments shall be paid to and become the property of RMT Partner. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(b)</u>. No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Effective Time, RMT Partner shall enter into an agreement with the Exchange Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to effect the applicable terms of this Agreement (the "<u>Agent Agreement</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, RMT Partner shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock following the Distribution and immediately prior to the Effective Time, from the Exchange Fund, the shares of RMT Partner Common Stock into which such shares of SpinCo Common Stock have been converted pursuant to the Merger, which shares shall, for the sake of clarity, be delivered to the same Persons who received shares of SpinCo Common Stock in the Distribution (in respect of such shares of SpinCo Common Stock).

All fractional shares of RMT Partner that a holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger shall be aggregated by the Exchange Agent. The Exchange Agent shall cause the whole shares obtained thereby to be sold on behalf of such holders that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of RMT Partner Common Stock pursuant to the Merger in the open market (or otherwise as reasonably directed by RMT Partner), in each case at then-prevailing market prices and in no case later than ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Time. The Exchange Agent shall make available the net proceeds thereof, subject to the deduction of the amount of any withholding Taxes as contemplated in <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(j)</u> and brokerage charges, commissions and conveyance and similar Taxes, to the holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of RMT Partner Common Stock pursuant to the Merger on a pro rata basis based on such fractional interest, without interest, as soon as practicable thereafter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *No Further Ownership Rights in SpinCo Common Stock*. All shares of RMT Partner Common Stock issued in respect of shares of SpinCo Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this <u>Section</u> <u>3.2</u> (including any cash paid pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(d)</u> or <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(e)</u>) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of SpinCo Common Stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) *Termination of Exchange Fund*. Any portion of the Exchange Fund made available to the Exchange Agent that remains undistributed to the former holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock on the one (1) year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to RMT Partner, and any former holders of shares of SpinCo Common Stock who have not received shares of RMT Partner Common Stock in accordance with this <u>Article</u> <u>III</u> shall thereafter look only to RMT Partner for the Merger Consideration to which they are entitled pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.1(a)(i)</u>, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of RMT Partner Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(e)</u> and any dividends or other distributions with respect to the RMT Partner Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to <u>Section</u> <u>3.2(d)</u> (subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law).

SpinCo, the Company, RMT Partner, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such

------

payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) For a period of six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, SpinCo agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer or employee of SpinCo and any other member of the SpinCo Group (the "<u>Indemnified Parties</u>") against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining

------

to any matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including the members of the SpinCo Group), as the case may be, would have been permitted under the Organizational Documents of SpinCo as in effect on the date hereof to indemnify such Person (including promptly advancing expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under such Organizational Documents; <u>provided</u> that such Person delivers an undertaking to SpinCo in advance agreeing to return any such funds to which a court of competent jurisdiction has determined in a final, nonappealable judgment that such Person is not entitled to indemnification). Without limiting the foregoing, SpinCo shall cause the members of the SpinCo Group (i) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in their respective Organizational Documents concerning the indemnification and exculpation (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the members of the SpinCo Group's respective former and current officers, directors or employees that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the Organizational Documents of the Company as of the date hereof and (ii) not to amend, repeal, waive or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) SpinCo may, in consultation with the RMT Partner, procure a prepaid, non-cancelable six (6) year "tail" policy commencing on the Closing Date containing terms not less favorable to the Indemnified Parties than the terms of directors' and officers' and fiduciary liability insurance covering the Indemnified Parties with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time; <u>provided</u> that if the premium thereof would exceed 300% of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date hereof, then SpinCo may only procure the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to such maximum amount. If any claim is asserted or made within such six (6) year period, then any insurance that is maintained under this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u> shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u> shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be binding on all successors and assigns of SpinCo and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each present and former director, officer and employee of any member of the SpinCo Group and his or her heirs and representatives. In the event that SpinCo or any of its respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of SpinCo shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Except as expressly permitted by this <u>Section</u> <u>7.9</u>, RMT Partner shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to <u>Article</u> <u>IX</u>: (i) take any action to make the provisions of any takeover statute inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Competing Proposal; or (ii) terminate, amend in a manner adverse to the Company, release, modify or grant any permission, waiver or release under, any "standstill" or similar agreement entered into by RMT Partner or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of or in contemplation of a Competing Proposal (other than if the RMT Partner Board determines, in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take any of such actions under <u>clause</u> <u>(ii)</u> would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to RMT Partner and its stockholders in their capacity as directors of RMT Partner under applicable Law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In addition to the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>7.9(a)</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>7.9(b)</u>, prior to receipt of the RMT Partner Stockholder Approval, the RMT Partner Board may (i) in response to any *bona fide* written Competing Proposal that was not, directly or indirectly, solicited, initiated or knowingly encouraged in breach of <u>Section</u> <u>7.9(a)</u>, effect a RMT Partner Adverse Recommendation Change or (ii) in response to an Intervening Event, effect a RMT Partner Adverse Recommendation Change, in the case of each of <u>clauses</u> <u>(i)</u> and <u>(ii)</u>, if and only if, (A) (1) in the case of a Competing Proposal, the RMT Partner Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with RMT Partner's outside financial advisor and outside legal counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or (2) in the case of an Intervening Event, if the RMT Partner Board determines in good faith that an Intervening Event has occurred and is continuing; (B) the RMT Partner Board determines in good faith, after consultation with RMT Partner's outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to RMT Partner and its stockholders in their capacity as directors of RMT Partner under applicable Law; (C) the RMT Partner Board provides the Company four (4) Business Days' prior written notice of its intention to take such action (an "<u>Alternative Notice</u>"), which notice shall include the information with respect to such Competing Proposal that is specified in <u>Section</u> <u>7.9(d)</u> as well as a copy of the acquisition agreement relating to such Competing Proposal (if any), or the material facts and circumstances relating to any such Intervening Event, as applicable; (D) during the four (4) Business Days following such written notice (the "<u>Negotiation Period</u>"), if requested by the Company, RMT Partner shall and shall direct its Representatives to, negotiate in good faith with the Company regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by the Company in response to such Competing Proposal or Intervening Event; and (E) at the end of the four (4) Business Day period described in the foregoing <u>clause</u> <u>(D)</u>, the RMT Partner Board concludes in good faith, (x) after consultation with RMT Partner's outside legal counsel and financial advisor (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement to which the Company and SpinCo have agreed in writing), that such Competing Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal or (y) after consultation with RMT Partner's outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a RMT Partner Adverse Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties that the directors owe to RMT Partner and its stockholders in their capacity as

------

directors of RMT Partner under applicable Law. Any material amendment or material modification to any Competing Proposal (including any amendment or modification to the amount, form or mix of consideration the stockholders of RMT Partner would receive as a result of the Superior Proposal) or to the material facts and circumstances relating to any Intervening Event shall require a new Alternative Notice and a new Negotiation Period commencing from the date of receipt of such new Alternative Notice; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to each subsequent written notice related to a material amendment or modification, references to the four (4) Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to two (2) Business Days.

Each of the Parties acknowledges that the RMT Partner Termination Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but rather represents liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company in the circumstances in which such RMT Partner Termination Fee is due and payable, for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Each Party further agrees that the agreements contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>9.3</u> are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if RMT Partner fails to pay any amounts due under this <u>Section</u> <u>9.3</u> and, in order to obtain such payment, the Company commences a suit that results in a judgment against RMT Partner for such amounts, RMT Partner shall pay interest on such amounts from the date payment of such amounts was due to the date of actual payment at the rate equal to the

------

prime rate published in the *Wall Street Journal* for the relevant period *plus* two percent (2%), together with the costs and expenses of the Company (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) in connection with such suit. Subject to <u>Section</u> <u>9.2</u>, payment by RMT Partner of the RMT Partner Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Company and SpinCo against RMT Partner, Merger Sub and their respective Subsidiaries in circumstances where the RMT Partner Termination Fee is payable hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, including this <u>Section</u> <u>9.3</u>, shall in any way limit the provisions of <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u>.

Section 10.4 <u>Headings</u>. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting or construing any of the provisions contained in this Agreement.

Section 10.5 <u>Entire Agreement</u>. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto), the Confidentiality Agreement and the Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that for the sake of clarity, it is understood that this Agreement shall not supersede the terms and provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, which shall survive and remain in effect until expiration or termination thereof in accordance with its respective terms (subject to the last sentence of <u>Section</u> <u>10.1</u>). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule and RMT Partner Disclosure Schedule are "facts ascertainable" as that term is used in Section 251(b) of the DGCL, and do not form part of this Agreement but instead operate upon the terms of this Agreement as provided herein.

Section 10.6 <u>Amendments and Waivers</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any Party may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting <u>Section</u> <u>10.6(b)</u>) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by a duly executed agreement in writing; <u>provided</u> that after the RMT Partner Stockholder Approval has been obtained, no amendment or waiver shall be made that pursuant to applicable Law requires further approval or adoption by the stockholders of RMT Partner without such further approval or adoption. No waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the Parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) This Agreement may be amended or modified, in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed by the Parties which makes reference to this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that any amendments or modifications of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.6(b)</u> or <u>Sections</u> <u>10.2</u> or <u>10.7</u>, to the extent materially adversely affecting any of the RMT Partner Lenders or the SpinCo Lenders, may not be entered into without the prior written consent of each of the RMT Partner Lenders or the SpinCo Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 10.7 <u>Assignment; Parties in Interest; Non-Parties</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Any attempted assignment or delegation in breach of this <u>Section</u> <u>10.7</u> shall be null and void. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the Parties, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, except as provided in <u>Section</u> <u>7.8</u> and <u>Section</u> <u>10.7(b)</u> (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such Persons).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is hereby agreed and acknowledged that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties hereto, and no former, current or future Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, equityholders, lenders, financing sources, managers, members, partners, agents or representatives of any Party, in each case, who is not a Party to this Agreement, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Parties hereto or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. Such Persons who are not Parties hereto are third party beneficiaries of <u>Section</u> <u>10.2</u>, <u>Section</u> <u>10.6</u>, <u>Section</u> <u>10.9</u> and this <u>Section</u> <u>10.7(b)</u>. For the avoidance of doubt, this <u>Section</u> <u>10.7(b)</u> shall not affect (a) the rights of the Persons party to the SpinCo Commitment Letter to enforce the SpinCo Commitment Letter in accordance with its terms; or (b) the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto set forth in <u>Section</u> <u>7.5</u>.

Section 10.8 <u>Specific Performance</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that the failure to perform under this Agreement will cause an actual, immediate and irreparable harm and injury and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that, (i) each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) prior to the Closing or any termination of this Agreement in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>9.1</u>, damages shall be awarded only in a case where a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined that, notwithstanding the Parties' intention for specific performance to be the applicable remedy prior to termination or the Closing, such specific performance is not available or otherwise will not be granted as a remedy.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Parties further agree that (i) by seeking the remedies provided for in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u>, a Party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek any other form of relief that may be available to a party under this Agreement, including monetary damages, subject to the terms hereof, (ii) nothing contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u> shall require any Party to institute any proceeding for (or limit any Party's right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u> before exercising any termination right under <u>Section</u> <u>9.1</u> (and pursuing damages after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Action pursuant to this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u> or anything contained in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u> restrict or limit any Party's right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of <u>Section</u> <u>9.1</u> or to pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter and (iii) no Person shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u>, and each Party irrevocably waives any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent either Party hereto brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this <u>Section</u> <u>10.8</u>, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, *plus* twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

Section 10.9 <u>WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL</u>. THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT (INCLUDING ANY SCHEDULE OR EXHIBIT HERETO AND THERETO) OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF SUCH AGREEMENTS. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS <u>SECTION</u> <u>10.9</u>. NO PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS <u>SECTION</u> <u>10.9</u> WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

Section 10.10 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any

------

actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

Section 10.11 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by electronic or .pdf transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of any signature page by facsimile, electronic or .pdf transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

Section 10.12 <u>Certain Financing Provisions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, RMT Partner on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the SpinCo Lender Parties, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing or any of the agreements (including the SpinCo Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the SpinCo Financing or the Permanent SpinCo Financing or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the agreements entered into in connection with the SpinCo Financing or the Permanent SpinCo Financing or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) agrees that any such proceeding shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the SpinCo Commitment Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the SpinCo Financing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) agrees not to bring or support any proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any SpinCo Lender Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing, the SpinCo Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the SpinCo Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the SpinCo Commitment Letter in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) agrees that service of process upon RMT Partner or its Subsidiaries in any such proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with <u>Section</u> <u>10.3</u>;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such proceeding in any such court;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any proceeding brought against any SpinCo Lender Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing, the SpinCo Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the SpinCo Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the SpinCo Commitment Letter;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) agrees that none of the SpinCo Lender Parties will have any liability to RMT Partner or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives (other than, following the Closing Date, SpinCo and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the terms of the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing or the SpinCo Commitment Letter) solely relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise and not related to the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing or the SpinCo Commitment Letter in any way;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) hereby waives any and all claims and causes of action against the SpinCo Lender Parties in their capacity as SpinCo Lender Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the SpinCo Financing, the Permanent SpinCo Financing, the SpinCo Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the SpinCo Commitment Letter or the performance of any services under the SpinCo Commitment Letter (other than, following the Closing Date, with respect to the SpinCo Financing and/or the Permanent SpinCo Financing), whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) agrees that the SpinCo Lender Parties are express third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions in this Agreement reflecting the foregoing agreements in this <u>Section</u> <u>10.12(a)</u>, and such provisions and the definitions of "SpinCo Lenders" and "SpinCo Lender Parties" (and any other provisions of this Agreement to the extent a modification thereof would affect the substance of any of the foregoing) shall not be amended in any way adverse to the SpinCo Lenders without the prior written consent of the SpinCo Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Company and SpinCo on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the RMT Partner Lender Parties, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the RMT Partner Financing or any of the agreements (including the RMT Partner Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the RMT Partner Financing or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the agreements entered into in connection with the RMT Partner Financing or the

------
