If Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on the Independent Expert, the Independent Expert will be appointed by agreement of a public accounting firm or financial consulting firm nominated by each of Buyer and Seller. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Expert shall be borne by the Parties in proportion to the relative amount each Party's determination has been modified. For example, if Seller challenges the calculation of the Purchase Price by an amount of $100,000, but the Independent Expert determines that Seller has a valid claim for only $40,000, Buyer shall bear 40% of the fees and expenses of the Independent Expert and Seller shall bear the other 60% 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Parties shall instruct the Independent Expert to consider only those items and amounts which are identified in the Objection Notice as being items which Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve. The Independent Expert's determination shall be based solely on (A) the relevant work papers and books and records relating to the Company and written information provided by Buyer and Seller to the extent related to Buyer's or Seller's calculation of the amounts in dispute, which are in accordance with this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review) and (B) the definitions and applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Independent Expert's determination shall be within the range proposed by Buyer and Seller in the Closing Statement and the Objection Notice.

All negotiations pursuant to this <u>Section 2.3</u> shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and comparable state rules of evidence, and all negotiations and submissions to the Independent Expert shall be treated as confidential information. The procedures of this <u>Section 2.3</u> are exclusive and, except as set forth below, the determinations of the Independent Expert shall be final and binding on the Parties. The decision of the Independent Expert rendered pursuant to this <u>Section 2.3(c)(v)</u> may be filed as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either Party may seek specific enforcement or take other necessary legal action to enforce any decision under this <u>Section 2.3(c)</u>. The other Party's only defense to such a request for specific enforcement or other legal action shall be fraud by or upon, or manifest error by, the Independent Expert. Absent such fraud or manifest error, such other Party shall reimburse the Party seeking enforcement for its expenses related to such enforcement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Seller is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted. Seller is duly qualified or licensed and in good standing to do business as a legal entity in each foreign jurisdiction in which the property owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of the business conducted by it makes such qualification or licensing necessary. Seller has made available to Buyer correct and complete copies of the Governing Documents of Seller.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Seller is or will be a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby by Seller, have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Seller. This Agreement and each other Transaction Document to which Seller is or will be a party, when executed and delivered by or on behalf of Seller and all other parties thereto, shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of Seller enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject, in each case, to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, and other similar applicable Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity, whether at law or in equity (the "**Enforceability Exception**").

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Except as set forth in <u>Section 5.3(b)</u> of the Disclosure Schedule, no consent, approval, authorization, waiver or registration is required to be obtained by Seller or the Company for the consummation by Seller or the Company, as applicable, of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that, if not obtained, would (i) materially impair the ability of Seller or the Company, as applicable, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or (ii) have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Capitalization</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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The authorized equity interests of the Company consist solely of an unlimited number of membership interests designated as "Units" in the Company's Governing Documents, of which 100 Company Units were issued and outstanding as of the Effective Date. Seller owns, beneficially and of record, all of the outstanding Company Units and has good title to such Company Units, free and clear of any and all Liens (other than restrictions imposed on transfer under applicable federal or state securities Laws or regulations).

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; There are no outstanding (i) voting or equity interests in the Company (other than the Company Units), (ii) securities of the Company convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Company Units or other voting or equity interests in the Company, (iii) options, warrants, subscription rights or other rights or agreements, commitments or understandings to acquire from the Company, or other obligation of the Company to issue, transfer or sell, any Company Units or other voting or equity interests in the Company or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Company Units or other voting or equity interests in the Company or (iv) equity appreciation, phantom unit, profit participation or similar rights with respect to any of the Company Units or any other voting or equity securities of the Company to which the Company is bound.

The Business is not a separately reported unit of Seller, and as such, no financial statements have been prepared for the Business as part of Seller's normal reporting process. <u>Section 5.6</u> of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth copies of certain carve-out financial statements, consisting of profits and loss statements for 2024 and 2023 and balance sheets as of such year-ends, compiled by management of Seller with respect to the Business (the "**Carve-out Financial Statements**"). The Carve-out Financial Statements have been compiled from source documentation subject to the controls and procedures of Seller's accounting systems and are based on assumptions, including allocations of overhead, believed by Seller and the Company to be reasonable.

Seller and the Company are, and have since the Look-Back Date been, in compliance, in all material respects, with the terms of such Permits, and all such Permits are in full force and effect. There is no pending or, to the Knowledge of Seller and the Company, threatened termination, expiration or revocation of any such Permits.

There is no default under or breach of the Transferred Lease by Seller or, to the Knowledge of Seller and the Company, the landlord under the Transferred Lease, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time, would constitute a breach or default or permit termination, modification or acceleration under the Transferred Lease. To the Knowledge of Seller and the Company, no security deposit or portion thereof deposited with respect to any such Leased Real Property has been applied in respect of a breach or default under any such Leased Real Property.

Neither Seller nor the Company has received notice of actual or threatened special assessments or reassessments of the Leased Real Property. All buildings, structures, improvements, fixtures, building systems and equipment, and all components thereof, included in the applicable Leased Real Property that are used in the operation of the Business, as presently conducted are in good operating condition (reasonable wear and tear excepted).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to any employee benefit plan maintained by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (collectively, "**Buyer Benefit Plans**") in which any Continuing Employees will participate effective as of the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize all service of the Continuing Employees with the Company (inclusive of service of the Continuing Employees with Seller immediately prior to the Reorganization) as if such service were with Buyer, for vesting and eligibility purposes in any Buyer Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing Date; <u>provided</u>, such service shall not be recognized to the extent that (i) such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits or (ii) such service was not recognized under the corresponding Benefit Plan.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company, to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive any pre-existing condition limitations otherwise applicable to Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents under any plan that provides health benefits in which Continuing Employees may be eligible to participate following the Closing to the extent such conditions are covered under the analogous Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employees participated immediately prior to the Closing, (ii) honor any deductible, co-payment and out-of-pocket maximums incurred by the Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents under the health plans in which they participated immediately prior to the Closing during the portion of the calendar year prior to the Closing, and (iii) waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a Continuing Employee and his or her eligible dependents on or after the Closing, in each case to the extent such Continuing Employee or eligible dependent had satisfied any similar limitation or requirement under an analogous Benefit Plan prior to 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;(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The provisions contained in this <u>Section 7.6</u> are included for the sole benefit of the Parties and nothing in this <u>Section 7.6</u>, whether express or implied, shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any other Person, including any current or former employees, any participant in any Benefit Plan, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, (ii) be construed as an amendment, waiver or creation of or limitation on the ability to terminate any Benefit Plans or benefit plans or agreements of Buyer or (iii) limit the ability of Buyer or the Company to terminate the employment of any Continuing Employee at any time.

Section 7.7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Insurance</u>. Effective at the Closing, the Company and the Business shall cease to be insured by any claims-based insurance policies or self-insurance programs of Seller or its Affiliates to the extent that the cessation of such coverage would be consistent with the terms of such policies and programs. In addition, with respect to any claims, acts, omissions, events, circumstances, occurrences or losses that occur prior to the Closing and of which Seller becomes aware (excluding constructive knowledge) prior to Closing for which coverage under such policies would be available, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file all claims for coverage thereunder in accordance with its standard risk management and claims procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, Seller shall retain all rights to control its insurance policies and self-insurance programs, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its insurance policies and self-insurance programs, and Seller shall retain any premiums or other retentions paid by the Business prior to the Closing Date in respect of any insurance coverage. For any claim that may be asserted by the Company or its Affiliates with respect to the Business after the Closing Date arising out of events, incidents, conduct or circumstances that occurred prior to the Closing (such claims, "**Pre-Closing Claims**"), the Company or its Affiliates may tender such Pre-Closing Claim to Seller for submission by Seller or one of its Affiliates to the applicable third-party insurer under any of the occurrence-based third-party insurance policies of Seller or its Affiliates issued prior to the Closing Date, in each case to the extent such insurance coverage exists at the time the Pre-Closing Claim is tendered to Seller and under which the Company, the Business, the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Liabilities were insured as of the date of the events, incidents, conduct or circumstances giving rise to such Pre-Closing Claim if permitted by the terms of such policy (such policies, the "**Applicable Pre-Closing Policies**," and each such claim, a "**Noticed Pre-Closing Claim**"). Seller shall reasonably promptly thereafter tender, or cause one of its Affiliates to tender, such Pre-Closing Claim to the applicable third-party insurer for coverage; <u>provided</u>, that (a) neither Buyer, the Company nor their respective Affiliates shall have any recourse to Seller pursuant to this <u>Section 7.7</u> for any uninsured or uncovered amounts for such Pre-Closing Claims (including any deductible or other amount for which Seller provides self-insurance); (b) Buyer or the Company shall be responsible for the satisfaction or payment of any and all associated self-retentions, deductibles, costs and expenses with respect to any Pre-Closing Claims and shall promptly reimburse Seller or its applicable Affiliates for its respective reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with collecting insurance proceeds in respect of such claims or otherwise under this <u>Section 7.7</u>; (c) Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller with respect to the tendering of any such claims including providing notices, information and backup materials as may be necessary in connection therewith; (d) the parties shall work in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure compliance with all of the applicable terms of such policies so as to minimize the risk of loss of coverage thereunder; (e) Seller shall not be required to make any concessions to any insurance carrier in connection with any Pre- Closing Claim; and (f) Seller shall not be required to take any action that would violate any Applicable Pre-Closing Policy (and Seller makes no representation or warranty with respect to the ability to take any of the actions otherwise contemplated by this <u>Section 7.7</u>). Seller shall notify Buyer and the Company of all material coverage-related correspondence with the third-party insurer(s) in respect of any Pre-Closing Claims and, if any amounts are paid or to be paid by the third-party insurer in respect thereof, shall request that such third-party insurer make payment directly to the Company, or shall transfer such insurance net proceeds actually received by Seller or its applicable Affiliates to the Company no later than ten (10) days after receipt of such insurance proceeds. Buyer agrees that neither it nor Company shall have the right to request that Seller make any claim under any Applicable Pre-Closing Policy until Buyer has undertaken commercially reasonable efforts to first recover for such claims under all insurance policies of Buyer and its Buyer Affiliates with respect to such claims. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to waive or abrogate in any way Seller's or its Affiliates' own rights to insurance coverage for any Liability, whether relating to the Company or otherwise.

Section 7.8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Director & Officer Liabilities</u>. From and after the Closing Date until the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause the Company to maintain in full the indemnification obligations set forth in the Company's Governing Documents, as in effect immediately prior to the Closing (with such changes as may be required under applicable Law), with respect to all past managers and officers of the Company, as well as all managers and officers of the Company as of the Closing Date, in each case, for acts or omissions occurring on or prior to the Closing Date in their capacities as such, and to indemnify and hold harmless such Persons in accordance therewith. Buyer, Seller and any Person entitled to indemnification under this <u>Section 7.8</u> shall cooperate in the defense of any litigation under this <u>Section 7.8</u> and shall provide access to properties and individuals as reasonably requested and furnish or cause to be furnished records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith.

The premium for such policies shall be borne by Buyer. For the avoidance of doubt, if Buyer determines that no such policies are available on satisfactory terms, the foregoing covenant shall be deemed waived by Buyer.

If requested by Buyer within three (3) Business Days of the Effective Date, Seller shall engage MNP LLP to undertake a review of the Carve-out Financial Statements, the results of which will be provided to Buyer no later than one month prior to the Closing Date. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the methodology of any such review may be different from, and is not intended to match, the methodology used to prepare the Carve-out Financial Statements, and such review is not intended to measure the accuracy of the Carve-out Financial Statements. Accordingly, Buyer shall not refer to the results of any such review to assert, and such results shall not constitute evidence of, a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller or the Company contained in this Agreement, including <u>Section 5.6</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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the "**Restricted Period**"), Seller will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, (i) engage or participate in any manner, or assist another Person in engaging or participating in any manner, in the Business or (ii) have an interest in any Person that engages in the Business in any capacity (including as a partner, shareholder, director, member, manager, employee, principal, agent, trustee, or consultant), in each case anywhere in the world.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; During the Restricted Period, Seller will not, and will cause its controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit the business of any Person who is a customer of Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to the Business (it being understood and agreed that solicitations with respect to business lines of Seller or its Affiliates unrelated to the Business shall not be prohibited hereunder); (ii) cause, induce, or attempt to cause or induce any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, franchisee, employee, consultant, or other business relation of the Business to terminate or modify such relationship with the Business; or (ii) hire, retain, or attempt to hire or retain any employee or independent contractor (except where such hiring would not be for any purpose that is competitive with the Business and would not reasonably be expected to preclude such independent contractor from providing services for the Company) of the Business (including any former employee of the Business if such Person was an employee or independent contractor of the Business within the 15-month period prior to such hiring, retention, or attempt to hire or retain).

------

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Seller and its controlled Affiliates may own, directly or indirectly, solely as an investment, securities of any Person traded on any national securities exchange if (i) Seller or such controlled Affiliate is not a controlling Person of, or a member of a group which controls, such Person and (ii) Seller or such controlled Affiliate does not, directly or indirectly, own three percent (3%) or more of any class of securities of such Person.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If Seller is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have violated any provisions or covenants of this <u>Section 7.15</u>, the duration of the restrictions in this <u>Section 7.15</u> will be extended for a period of time equal to that period beginning when such violation commenced and ending upon such judicial finding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If a final judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any term or provision contained in <u>Section 7.15</u> is invalid or unenforceable, then the Parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This <u>Section 7.15</u> will be enforceable as so modified for the remaining duration of the Restricted Period. Seller acknowledges that this <u>Section 7.15</u> is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve Buyer's and its Affiliates' legitimate business interests. Seller also acknowledges that the Business and the business engaged in by Buyer and its Affiliates have a worldwide geographic scope.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Parties agree that the remedy of damages at law for the breach of any of the covenants contained in this <u>Section 7.15</u> may be insufficient and that Seller will not challenge the enforceability or reasonableness of the covenants set forth in this <u>Section 7.15</u>. In recognition of the irreparable harm that a violation by Seller of any of the covenants, agreements or obligations arising under this <u>Section 7.15</u> would cause Buyer or its Affiliates, Seller agrees that in addition to any other remedies or relief afforded by law, an injunction against an actual or threatened violation or violations may be issued against Seller without posting a bond or other security. In the event of an action to enforce the covenants in this <u>Section 7.15</u>, the successful Party will be entitled to be reimbursed for attorney's fees incurred by such Party with respect to such action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For purposes of calculating the amount of Losses that are the subject matter of a claim for indemnification pursuant to <u>Section 10.3(a)</u> or <u>Section 10.2(a)</u>, the applicable representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been made without giving effect to any materiality or Material Adverse Effect qualifier.

As promptly as practicable after becoming aware of any claim not involving a Third-Party Claim that an Indemnified Party in good faith believes may result in a Loss under this <u>Article X</u>, but in no event more than thirty (30) days after first becoming aware of such claim, the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such claim (a "**Claim Notice**"), including the facts alleged to constitute the basis for such claim, the amount or the estimated amount of Losses sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable, and any other material details pertaining thereto; <u>provided</u>, that the failure to timely give such notice shall not affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder unless such failure has materially prejudiced the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to settle any disputes relating to the matters identified in the Claim Notice within thirty (30) days after the date the Claim Notice is delivered.

&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;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party may have Liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a "**Third-Party Claim**"), such Indemnified Party shall deliver a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with <u>Section 10.5(a)</u>; <u>provided</u>, that the failure to timely give a Claim Notice shall not affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder unless such failure has materially prejudiced the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim.

&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;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Claim Notice, to assume and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed such defense, the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by any Indemnified Party in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim; <u>provided</u> that (i) counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party (which shall include the Seller Law Firm), and the Indemnified Party may participate (but not control) in such defense at such Indemnified Party's expense, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control the defense at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (to the extent that such expenses are reasonable) if the Indemnifying Party does not promptly, and without reservation or other material conflict, assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim following the Third-Party Claim Notice, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall have no right to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim (and the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control the defense at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (to the extent that such expenses are reasonable)) if (A) the Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable relief as its principal remedy, or involves a criminal investigation, (B) the aggregate amount of Losses arising out of such Third-Party Claim is reasonably likely to exceed the maximum remaining indemnification liability of the Indemnifying Party under this <u>Article X</u>, or (C) the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may continue to defend such Third-Party Claim at the sole cost of the Indemnifying Party (subject to the limitations set forth in this <u>Article X</u>), and the Indemnifying Party may still participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party's sole cost and expense.

&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;(iii) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Indemnified Party will not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any Order arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Except with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), no Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim, will consent to the entry of any Order or enter into any settlement that (A) provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party or (B) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by each claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all Liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim. In any such Third-Party Claim, the Party responsible for the defense of such claim shall, to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, keep such other Party informed as to the status of such Third-Party Claim, including all settlement negotiations and offers.

------

&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;(iv) The Party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall promptly notify the other Party of each settlement offer with respect to the Third-Party Claim. Such other Party shall promptly notify the Party controlling the defense whether or not such other Party is willing to accept the proposed settlement offer. If the Indemnifying Party is the Party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim and is willing to accept any proposed settlement offer but the Indemnified Party refuses to accept such settlement offer, then if (A) such settlement offer requires only the payment of money damages and provides a complete release of all Indemnified Parties that are a party to such Third-Party Claim with respect to the subject matter thereof, (B) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing that the entire amount of such proposed settlement constitutes Losses that are recoverable from the Indemnifying Party, subject to the other provisions of this <u>Article X</u>, and (C) the entire amount of such proposed settlement will not exceed the maximum remaining indemnification liability of the Indemnifying Party under this <u>Article X</u>, then the amount payable to the Indemnified Parties with respect to such Third-Party Claim will be limited to the amount of such settlement offer subject to the limitations contained in this <u>Article X</u>. The Indemnifying Party may nevertheless propose in writing a good faith, reasonable settlement offer that requires only the payment of money damages and provides a complete release of all Indemnified Parties who are parties to such Third-Party Claim with respect to the subject matter thereof; <u>provided</u>, that (I) the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing that the entire amount of such proposed settlement constitutes Losses that are recoverable from the Indemnifying Party, subject to the other provisions of this this <u>Article X</u>, and (II) the entire amount of any such proposed settlement offer will not exceed the maximum remaining indemnification liability of the Indemnifying Party under this <u>Article X</u>. If the claimant in the Third-Party Claim consents to such proposed settlement offer, or any Order is entered to such effect, any amount payable to the Indemnified Parties with respect to such Third-Party Claim will be limited to the amount of such proposed settlement offer.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Cooperation</u>. For all purposes of this <u>Article X</u>, Buyer and Seller, as applicable, shall cooperate with and make available to the other Party and its respective Representatives all information, records and data, and shall permit reasonable access to its facilities and personnel, as may be reasonably required in connection with the resolution of such disputes, subject to <u>Section 7.2</u>. The Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Law) and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work product privileges. Without limiting the foregoing, with respect to a Third-Party Claim for which Seller is the Party responsible for the defense thereof, Buyer shall use all reasonable efforts to make available to Seller and its Representatives all books and records of Buyer and the Company relating to such Third-Party Claim, subject to <u>Section 7.2</u>, and shall cooperate with Seller in the defense of the Third-Party Claim.

Section 10.6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Subrogation</u>. Upon making any indemnity payment pursuant to <u>Section 10.2</u> or <u>Section 10.3</u>, as applicable, in respect of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Parties, as applicable, against any third party in respect of the Losses to which the payment related. The Parties will execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation rights.

------

Section 10.7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Calculation of Losses</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the amount of any Losses incurred or suffered by any Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to (a) any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Losses; (b) any recoveries obtained by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) from any third party (it being agreed that each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such proceeds, benefits and recoveries, including seeking full recovery under all insurance policies issued by non-Affiliated third parties covering any Loss to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder); <u>provided</u>, that in no event shall the Indemnified Party have any obligation to initiate Legal Proceedings against any insurance provider or other third party to obtain any such proceeds or recovery. If any such proceeds or recoveries are received by an Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to any Losses after the Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party (or such Affiliate) shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such proceeds or recoveries (up to the amount of the Indemnifying Party's payment).

Section 10.8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Adjustment to Purchase Price</u>. All indemnification payments made pursuant to this <u>Article X</u> will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 10.9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Exclusive Remedy</u>. From and after the Closing, except in the case of Fraud, the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties for any Losses based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of the matters set forth in this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby are the indemnification obligations of the Parties set forth in this <u>Article X</u>. The provisions of this <u>Section 10.9</u> will not, however, prevent or limit a cause of action (a) under <u>Section 7.15</u> or <u>Section 11.14</u> to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, or (b) under <u>Section 2.3(c)</u> to enforce any decision or determination of the Independent Expert. To the extent that any Party has any Losses for which it may assert any right to indemnification, contribution or recovery in connection with this Agreement (whether under this Agreement or under any common law or any statute or otherwise), other than pursuant to this <u>Article X</u>, (i) Seller hereby waives, releases and agrees not to assert such right, and (ii) Buyer hereby waives, releases and agrees not to assert such right, in each case, regardless of the theory upon which any claim may be based, whether contract, equity, tort, fraud, negligent or intentional misrepresentation, warranty, strict liability or any other theory of liability, other than a claim against a Party for Fraud by such Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no provision of this Agreement shall relieve any Party from Liability for Fraud.

#### ARTICLE XI

#### MISCELLANEOUS
Section 11.1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Fees and Expenses</u>. Unless otherwise specifically provided pursuant to this Agreement (including with respect to the Special Expenses), all expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller (and not the Company) shall pay all Seller Transaction Expenses incurred on behalf of Seller or the Company when due.

Section 11.2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Entire Agreement; Amendment; Assignment</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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This Agreement may not be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified except by an instrument in writing executed by the Parties. No course of dealing between or among any Persons having any interest in this Agreement shall be deemed effective to modify or amend any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Person under or by reason of this Agreement.

------

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder, by operation of Law (including by merger or consolidation) or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Parties; <u>provided</u>, that Buyer may assign this Agreement to an Affiliate with prior written consent of Seller, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any assignment in violation of the preceding sentence shall be void.

Section 11.3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Waiver</u>. Any agreement on the part of any Party to any extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. The rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement can be discharged by one Party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless it is in a writing signed by the other Party, (b) no waiver that may be given by a Party will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given and (c) no notice to or demand on one Party will be deemed to be a waiver of any obligation of such Party or of the right of the Party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement.

Section 11.4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Notices</u>. All notices, requests, instructions or other documents to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (a) if delivered by the recipient personally, effective when delivered, or (b) if sent by electronic transmission, when confirmation of transmission is received by the sender; <u>provided</u>, that if receipt is acknowledged after normal business hours of the recipient, notice shall be deemed to have been given on the next Business Day, (c) if delivered by express delivery service, effective when delivery has been signed for or otherwise acknowledged by standard process, or (d) if mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested), effective three (3) Business Days after mailing, to the Parties at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified by like notice):

EACH PARTY HERETO CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) EACH PARTY HERETO UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (C) EACH PARTY HERETO MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (D) EACH PARTY HERETO HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS <u>SECTION 11.5</u>.

Section 11.9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Counterparts; Electronic Transmission</u>.

Section 11.10.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Interpretation</u>.

All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings contained herein when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto, unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms. All pronouns contained in this Agreement encompass the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such terms. Any Contract, instrument or Law defined or referred to herein or in any Contract or instrument that is referred to herein means such Contract, instrument or Law, as from time to time, amended, qualified or supplemented, including (in the case of Contracts and instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of Laws) by succession of comparable successor Laws and all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. The reference to "$" or "Dollars" shall be United States Dollars.

In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. The language used in this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any Party.

Information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule specifically refers to the article and section of this Agreement to which such information is responsive; <u>provided</u>, that disclosure of an item in the Disclosure Schedule in response to one section of this Agreement shall constitute disclosure and response in the Disclosure Schedule to every section of this Agreement to which its application is reasonably apparent from a reading of the disclosure, notwithstanding the fact that no express cross-reference is made. For all purposes of this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to include all information contained in any such supplement or amendment thereto. The Disclosure Schedule is not intended to constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, any representation or warranty or covenant of Seller or the Company, except as and to the extent expressly provided in this Agreement. Matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedule are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be reflected in the Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes and do not necessarily include other matters of a similar nature.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Parties shall treat all nonpublic information provided or obtained in connection with this Agreement (including in connection with the access provisions of <u>Section 7.2</u> hereof) and the transactions contemplated hereby as confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference and shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time such Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate.

Section 11.13.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Conflict Waiver; Attorney-Client Privilege</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;(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Each Party acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates and Representatives, that:

&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;(i) Dorsey & Whitney LLP has acted as counsel to Seller and the Company in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer agrees, and shall cause the Company to agree, that, following consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, such representation and any prior representation of the Company by Dorsey & Whitney LLP (or any successor) (the "**Seller Law Firm**") shall not preclude the Seller Law Firm from serving as counsel to Seller or any of its respective Affiliates or Representative in connection with any litigation, claim or obligation 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Company not to, seek or have the Seller Law Firm disqualified from any such representation based upon the prior representation of the Company by the Seller Law Firm. Each Party hereby consents thereto and waives any conflict of interest arising from such prior representation, and each such Party shall cause any of its Affiliates to consent to waive any conflict of interest arising from such representation. Each Party acknowledges that such consent and waiver is voluntary, that it has been carefully considered, and that such Party has consulted with counsel or has been advised to do so in connection herewith. The covenants, consent and waiver contained in this <u>Section 11.13(a)</u> shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the Seller Law Firm is entitled whether pursuant to law, contract or otherwise.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All communications between Seller or the Company, on the one hand, and the Seller Law Firm, on the other hand, relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the "**Privileged Communications**") shall be deemed to be attorney-client privileged and the expectation of client confidence relating thereto shall belong solely to Seller and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or the Company. Accordingly, Buyer and the Company shall not have access to any Privileged Communications or to the files of the Seller Law Firm relating to such engagement from and after Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from and after the Closing, (i) Seller (and not Buyer or the Company) shall be the sole holders of the attorney-client privilege with respect to such engagement, and none of Buyer or the Company shall be a holder thereof, (ii) to the extent that files of the Seller Law Firm in respect of such engagement constitute property of the client, only Seller (and not Buyer or the Company) shall hold such property rights and (iii) the Seller Law Firm shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to Buyer or the Company by reason of any attorney-client relationship between the Seller Law Firm and the Company or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Company), on the one hand, and a third party other than Seller, on the other hand, Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Company) may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications to such third party; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates (including the Company) may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event that Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) is legally required by Order or otherwise legally required to access or obtain a copy of all or a portion of the Privileged Communications, to the extent (A) permitted by applicable Law, and (B) advisable in the opinion of Buyer's counsel, then Buyer shall immediately (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day) notify Seller in writing so that Seller can seek a protective order.

&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)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This <u>Section 11.13</u> is intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the Seller Law Firm. This <u>Section 11.13</u> shall be irrevocable, and no term of this <u>Section 11.13</u> may be amended, waived or modified, without the prior written consent of the Seller Law Firm.

Section 11.14.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <u>Specific Performance</u>. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the subject matter of this Agreement is unique, that the other Parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached, and that the remedies at law would not be adequate to compensate such other Parties not in default or in breach. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Parties will be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.

Section 11.15. <u>Non-Recourse</u>. All actions, suits, claims and proceedings at law or in equity, or arbitration or administrative or other proceedings by or before any Governmental Authority (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may be made only against Persons that are expressly identified as Parties. No Person who is not a named party to this Agreement, including any Affiliate or other Representative of any named Party (a "**Non-Party Affiliate**"), shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of an entity party against its owners or Affiliates) for any liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation or execution, and each Party waives and releases all such liabilities against any such Non-Party Affiliates. In the event that any provision of this Agreement provides that a Party shall cause its Affiliates or Representatives to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) or otherwise purports to be binding on such Party's Affiliates or Representatives, such Party shall be liable for any breach of such provision by any such Affiliate or Representative.
