On February 17, 2026, IHS Holding Limited announced the entrance into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "SPA"), by and among IHS Mauritius BR Limited, a private company organized under the laws of Mauritius ("Seller"), Latam Towers Infrastructure, LLC ("Buyer"), and, solely with respect to certain guarantee provisions, IHS Mauritius NG HoldCo Limited. Pursuant to the SPA, the Seller has agreed to sell to the Buyer all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in IHS Brasil - Cessão de Infraestruturas S.A., Centennial Towers Brasil Cooperatief U.A. (to the extent not dissolved prior to closing), and Centennial Towers Colombia S.A.S. (collectively, the "Acquired Companies"). The aggregate base purchase price under the SPA is R$3,550.00 million (approximately US$683.0 million), subject to adjustment for leakage and accrued interest at an annual rate which is the average of IPCA and CDI from July 1, 2026 through the closing. Approximately US$394 million of the purchase price will be paid by the Buyer from equity financing, while approximately US$289 million will be funded through debt financing to be raised at the level of IHS Brasil-Cessão de Infraestruturas S.A. The Buyer has received an equity commitment letter from an investment fund managed or advised by Macquarie Asset Management and a debt commitment letter from the debt financing sources, which commit the financing sources to provide the amounts necessary to fund the purchase price upon satisfaction of specified conditions. As part of the transaction, part of the consideration will be discharged through the repayment of the existing shareholder loan in the amount of approximately $200.0 million (plus accrued interest) owed by IHS Brasil - Cessão de Infraestruturas S.A.to IHS Holding Limited.

The closing of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals, the accuracy of representations and warranties, the absence of any material adverse effect and a successful capital raise by one or more investment funds managed or advised by Macquarie Asset Management. The SPA may be terminated by either party if the closing has not occurred within six months of signing (automatically extended for an additional six months if the sole cause is the failure to receive regulatory approval), or if the other party breaches certain obligations. As an inducement for the Seller to enter into the SPA, an investment fund managed or advised by Macquarie Asset Management has delivered a limited guarantee in favor of the Seller guaranteeing certain obligations of the Buyer.

A copy of the press release announcing the transaction is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. A copy of the SPA is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2. The foregoing description of the SPA does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the SPA.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) The Buyer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Seller at or prior to the Closing, (i) the equivalent in U.S. dollars of R$2,050,000,000.00, converted into U.S dollars in accordance with the procedure detailed in <u>Exhibit I</u> attached hereto, *minus* (ii) the Estimated Leakage, if any, <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if the U.S. dollar equivalent of R$1,500,000,000.00 set forth in <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)</u> is not sufficient to repay in full the Shareholder Loans Amount as provided below (the "<u>Shareholder Loans Amount Shortfall</u>"), the Buyer shall reduce any amount payable to the Seller pursuant to this <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(A)</u> by the Shareholder Loans Shortfall 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) The Buyer shall cause IHS Brasil to deliver, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Seller at or prior to the Closing, the U.S. dollar equivalent of R$1,500,000,000.00 of the Estimated Purchase Price, which shall be funded through the Debt Financing to be incurred by IHS Brasil, it being understood that, at such time, IHS Brasil shall remain under the ownership and control of the Seller. The Seller shall therefore cause IHS Brasil to comply with Buyer's reasonable instructions to the extent consistent with this Agreement and this <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)</u>, so that IHS Brasil may instrumentally make the payments established in <u>Sections 2.4(b)(i)(B)(1)</u> and <u>2.4(b)(i)(B)(2)</u> and, accordingly, ensure that the Parties consummate the transactions set forth in this Agreement, as follows:

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To the extent the result is a positive number, the Buyer shall cause IHS Brasil to pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Seller prior to Closing, the U.S. dollar equivalent of R$1,500,000,000.00, converted into U.S. dollars at the Exchange Rate, *minus* the Shareholder Loans Amount as of the Closing Date, subject to the following:

&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;&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;(x) (i) first, the Debt Financing shall be funded and the proceeds thereof deposited in an account of IHS Brasil; (ii) second, with the proceeds of the Debt Financing, IHS Brasil shall give effect to a capital reduction, which the Seller and IHS Brasil will have had approved at least 60 (sixty) days prior to Closing (and, in any event, conditioned upon Closing Condition Satisfaction Date), and make the capital reduction distribution to the Seller at or prior to Closing to be implemented with the execution of the applicable corporate documents substantially in the form attached hereto in <u>Exhibit F</u> (and, in any case, prior to the transfer of the Shares of IHS Brasil to the Buyer) in the amount set forth in <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)(1)</u> above, <u>provided</u> that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if such payment cannot be structured as a capital reduction distribution to the Seller (and, thus indirectly to IHS Holding Limited) and such distribution cannot be completed as of Closing Date, the Buyer shall arrange for an alternative to the payment mechanics set forth in this <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)(1)</u> to implement the most efficient structure for the distribution and remittance mechanics for such payment; <u>provided</u>, that (i) the implementation of any such alternative structure shall require the prior written consent of the Seller, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) no such alternative structure shall (A) delay the Closing beyond the date on which it would otherwise occur pursuant to <u>Section 2.3(a)</u>, (B) reduce the net proceeds actually received by the Seller below the amounts that the Seller would have received under the payment mechanics otherwise set forth in this <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)(1)</u>, or (C) otherwise be materially adverse to either Party, and (iii) any incremental out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in connection with implementing such alternative structure shall be borne by the Buyer.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) IHS Brasil shall settle and repay the Shareholder Loans Amount (accrued as of the Closing Date) to the respective Repaid Related Parties. The Seller shall grant the Buyer a full release with respect to such portion of the Estimated Purchase Price and shall cause each of the Repaid Related Parties to grant full release of all borrowers' obligations under the Shareholder Loans;

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Buyer has the right to reduce the amount of the expected Debt Financing of R$1,500,000,000.00, <u>provided</u> that (w) the Buyer simultaneously increases the amount of equity set forth in <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(A)</u> (such incremental amount, the "<u>Incremental Equity</u>"), (x) the Buyer delivers to the Seller an amended Equity Commitment Letter increasing the Equity Sponsor's equity financing commitment thereunder by the Incremental Equity, or Buyer delivers or causes to be delivered an additional or supplemental equity commitment letter with respect to the Incremental Equity, and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Equity Commitment Letter attached hereto, (y) the Estimated Purchase Price is paid in full to the Seller at Closing pursuant to the same procedures established above, when applicable, <u>provided</u> that, with respect to the payment of the Incremental Equity, it shall be made in U.S dollars in accordance with the Exchange Rate at the time of payment (and not, for avoidance of doubt, in accordance with <u>Exhibit I</u>), and (z) such reduction does not result in any additional Taxes, costs, expenses or other Losses for the 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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) unless Centennial Brasil has been dissolved pursuant to <u>Section 6.19</u>, a duly executed counterpart of the share transfer form in respect of the Shares in Centennial Brasil;

&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) a duly executed counterpart to the Shares Transfer Book (*Livro de Registro de Transferência de Ações*) of IHS Brasil reflecting the Shares in the name of the Buyer;

&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;(v) a duly executed copy of the minutes of the shareholders meeting of IHS Brasil and, in the case of its Subsidiaries, an amendment to their articles of association, (a) accepting the resignation of the members of the board of directors of IHS Brasil and members of the board of directors or officers of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, granting full, general, and complete release and discharge with respect to the accounts and actions performed by the resigning members of the board of directors or officers of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and (b) appointing new members of the board of directors of IHS Brasil and new members of the board of directors or officers of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, substantially in accordance with <u>Exhibit K</u>;

Section 2.5 <u>Final Leakage</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) Within seventy-five (75) days following the Closing Date, the Buyer shall prepare and deliver to the Seller a written statement, together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation (the "<u>Final Leakage Statement</u>"), that shall include the Buyer's good faith determination of the Leakage ("<u>Final Leakage</u>"), determined as of the Measurement Time, and the Purchase Price, using the Buyer's determination of amounts set forth in the Final Leakage Statement. The Final Leakage Statement (A) shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the Accounting Principles and (B) shall be based exclusively on the facts and circumstances as they exist between the Locked-Box Date and Closing and shall exclude the effects of any event, act, change in circumstances or similar development arising or occurring after the Closing. For purposes of determining the amount included in the Purchase Price, foreign currencies shall be converted into U.S. dollars at the Exchange Rate as of the Closing Date.

&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) The Buyer will, and will cause the Acquired Companies to, afford the Seller and its Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, to the personnel and supporting information (including financial and corporate records, working papers of auditors and accountants (subject to customary release letters)) reasonably requested by the Seller or its Representatives for purposes of preparing and reviewing the calculations contemplated in the Final Leakage Statement; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any such access shall be conducted at the Seller's expense, during normal business hours, under the supervision of the applicable Acquired Company's personnel and in such a manner as to not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Acquired Companies; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u> that the Objection Deadline Date shall be tolled during any period in which the Buyer fails to comply with this requirement.

&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) The Final Leakage Statement shall become final and binding on the Objection Deadline Date, unless prior to the end of such period, the Seller delivers to the Buyer written notice of its disagreement (a "<u>Notice of Disagreement</u>") specifying the nature and amount of any dispute as to the Final Leakage, as set forth in the Final Leakage Statement (collectively, the "<u>Disputed Items</u>"). Any component of the calculations set forth in the Final Leakage Statement that is not the subject of a timely delivered Notice of Disagreement by the Seller shall be final and binding upon the Seller and the Buyer, unless the resolution of any Disputed Item affects an undisputed component of the Final Leakage Statement, in which case such undisputed component shall, notwithstanding the failure to object to such component in the Notice of Disagreement, be considered a "Disputed Item" to the extent affected by such resolved Disputed Item.

&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) The Disputed Items shall be resolved as follows:

&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) During the thirty (30)-day period following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement by the Seller to the Buyer, the Parties in good faith shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such Disputed Items and any written resolution by the Seller and the Buyer as to such Disputed Items shall be final and binding with respect to such Disputed Items upon the Parties and the Final Leakage Statement shall be deemed to be updated accordingly.

&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) If the Seller and the Buyer have not resolved all such differences by the end of such thirty (30)-day period, the Seller and the Buyer shall, within fifteen (15) days following the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period, engage the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve any remaining Disputed Items. If one or more Disputed Items are submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm for resolution, the Seller and the Buyer shall, within such fifteen (15)-day period, enter into a customary engagement letter, and shall cooperate, with the Independent Accounting Firm in connection with its determination pursuant to this <u>Section 2.5</u>. Within fifteen (15) Business Days after the Independent Accounting Firm has been retained, the Seller, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, shall simultaneously submit, at its own expense, to the Independent Accounting Firm and the other Parties a written statement attaching their briefs detailing their views as to the correct nature and amount of each remaining Disputed Item (the "<u>Initial Submission Date</u>"). Each Party shall furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such information and documents as may be requested by the Independent Accounting Firm and may also furnish to the Independent Accounting Firm such other information and documents as such Party deems relevant. Copies of each Party's submission to the Independent Accounting Firm shall be provided to the Buyer and the Seller, respectively, only after both Parties have delivered their respective submissions to the Independent Accounting Firm, and in all cases such copies shall be delivered to the Buyer and the Seller substantially simultaneously.

&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) The Independent Accounting Firm shall be instructed to resolve only the Disputed Items submitted to it and shall be instructed not to investigate any other matter independently. 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 and the Independent Accounting Firm is not to make any other determination. In resolving any Disputed Item, the Independent Accounting Firm may not assign a greater or lesser value to any Disputed Item than that assigned to such Disputed Item by the Seller or the Buyer in the Notice of Disagreement or Final Leakage Statement, as applicable.

&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 Seller and the Buyer shall request that the Independent Accounting Firm (A) render a written final determination of all the Disputed Items submitted to it within thirty (30) days following the Initial Submission Date, and (B) provide a reasonably detailed basis for its determination in respect of each Disputed Item.

&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;(v) The Independent Accounting Firm's final determination of the Disputed Items, absent fraud or manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties and shall not be subject to appeal or further review. Judgment may be entered upon the written determination of the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with <u>Section 11.9</u>. In acting under this Agreement, the Independent Accounting Firm shall function solely as an expert and not as an arbitrator. The proceeding before the Independent Accounting Firm shall be an expert determination under applicable Laws governing expert determination and appraisal proceedings.

&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) The Buyer has delivered to the Seller a true, complete and correct copy of the fully executed equity commitment letter, dated as of the date of this Agreement, from the party identified therein (the "<u>Equity Sponsor</u>") committing to provide up to US$400,000,000.00 (the "<u>Equity Commitment Amount</u>") in the aggregate of equity financing (subject to adjustment on the terms set forth therein) to the Buyer, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (including, among others, the occurrence of the Buyer Fundraising Milestone) (together with all exhibits, schedules and annexes thereto, the "<u>Equity Commitment Letter</u>" and, together with the Debt Commitment Letter, the "<u>Commitment Letters</u>" and, the equity financing committed pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter, the "<u>Equity Financing</u>" and, together with the Debt Financing, the "<u>Financing</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;(d) As of the date hereof, the Buyer is not aware of any fact, occurrence or condition that would result in (i) any of the conditions precedent set forth in the Commitment Letters (other than the occurrence of the Buyer Fundraising Milestone) not being satisfied on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii) the Financing in the aggregate amounts contemplated by the Commitment Letters not being available to the Buyer on the Closing Date. Other than the occurrence of the Buyer Fundraising Milestone, the Buyer's obligations under this Agreement are not subject to any conditions regarding the Buyer's or the Buyer Group's ability to obtain the Equity Financing or Debt Financing for the consummation of 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;(e) There are no side letters, understandings or other agreements or arrangements of any kind relating to any of the Commitment Letters or the Financing that could prevent the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters in any respect.

Except for the occurrence of the Buyer Fundraising Milestone, in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters) by or to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any other financing transaction be a condition to any of the obligations of the Buyer hereunder.

The Guarantee has been duly executed by Guarantor, and the Guarantee is in full force and effect and, subject to its terms and conditions, constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms and conditions, except as such enforceability may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions.

&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) the Seller makes (either with respect of itself or with respect to the Acquired Companies) no representations or warranties regarding any third-party beneficiary rights or other rights which the Buyer might claim under any studies, reports, tests or analyses prepared by any third parties for the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates, even if the same were made available for review by the Buyer or its Representatives; 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;(e) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Buyer expressly acknowledges and agrees that none of the documents, information or other materials provided to them at any time or in any format by the Seller, any of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives constitute legal advice, and the Buyer waives all rights to assert that it received any legal advice from the Seller, any of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates, Representatives or counsel, or that it had any sort of attorney-client relationship with any of such Persons;

&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) From and after the Closing Date and continuing until the second (2<sup>nd</sup>) anniversary of the Closing Date (the "<u>Restricted Period</u>"), Seller and its Affiliates covenant and agree that they shall not, and shall cause their respective Representatives (in their capacity as such) not to, directly or indirectly, within the Territory (as defined below): (i) engage in, own, manage, operate, control, participate in, act as a consultant or advisor to, render services for, or otherwise be connected with any business that competes, in whole or in part, with the Business in Brazil or Colombia (the "<u>Territory</u>"), as conducted as of the Closing Date (each, a "<u>Competing Activity</u>"), <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any and all activities related to or conducted by IHS Fiber Brasil or I-Systems are excluded from the definition of Competing Activity; or (ii) acquire, subscribe for, hold or otherwise have any interest (equity, debt, profit-sharing or otherwise) in any Person that engages in a Competing Activity; <u>provided</u> that the foregoing shall not prohibit passive ownership solely for investment purposes of less than 5% of any class of securities of a company that engages in a Competing Activity, so long as the Sellers or its Affiliates do not otherwise, directly or indirectly, participate in the management or operation of such company. Without limiting the foregoing, during the Restricted Period, the Seller agrees that it and its Affiliates will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Buyer, hire any officer, director or Senior Employees or director of any Acquired Company, or persuade or solicit any officer, director or Senior Employees of any Acquired Company to leave the employ of any Acquired Company or to become employed by the Seller or any of its Affiliates; <u>provided</u>, that, such covenants will not restrict the Seller and its Affiliates from (i) conducting a general solicitation of employment by means of newspaper, periodical or trade publication advertisements or similar methods of solicitations by search firms which are not specifically directed by the Seller or its Affiliates toward the officers, directors or employees of the Acquired Companies; or (ii) soliciting or hiring individuals who terminated his or her employment (or had his or her employment terminated) with the applicable Acquired Company at least twelve (12) months prior to such solicitation.

&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) The Restricted Period shall be tolled, and shall not run, during any period of violation by the Seller or any of its Affiliates of the covenants set forth in this <u>Section 6.13</u>, and shall be extended by the period of such violation so that the Buyer and the Acquired Companies receive the full benefit of the bargained-for duration of such covenants.

&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) The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchase Price fairly and adequately compensates the Seller and its Affiliates for agreeing to the covenants set forth in this <u>Section 6.13</u>, that such covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests, confidential information, goodwill, customer relationships and competitive position of the Buyer and the Acquired Companies, and that irreparable harm would result to the Buyer and the Acquired Companies in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Seller or any of its Affiliates.

&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) The Seller acknowledges that the covenants of the Seller set forth in this <u>Section 6.13</u> are an essential element of this Agreement and that any breach by the Seller of any provision of this <u>Section 6.13</u> will result in irreparable injury to the Buyer. The Seller acknowledges that in the event of such a breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law, the Buyer shall be entitled to equitable relief, including injunctive relief. The Seller has independently consulted with its counsel and after such consultation agrees that the covenants set forth in this <u>Section 6.13</u> are reasonable and proper to protect the legitimate interest of the Buyer. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the character, duration or geographical scope of the provisions of this <u>Section 6.13</u> are unreasonable, it is the intention of the Parties that these provisions shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only those restrictions on Seller's conduct that are reasonable in light of the circumstances and as are necessary to assure to the Buyer the benefits of this Agreement.

Section 6.14 <u>Intellectual Property</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) The Buyer hereby acknowledges that all right, title and interest in and to the names (together with all variations and acronyms thereof), trademarks, service marks, Internet domain names, trade names, trade dress, corporate names and other identifiers of source or goodwill containing, incorporating or associated with any of the foregoing, or any other name that suggests a relationship with the Seller or any of their Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) listed in <u>Schedule 6.12</u> of the Disclosure Schedules (collectively, the "<u>Retained Names and Marks</u>"), are owned exclusively by the Seller or one or more of its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies), and that, except as expressly provided below, any and all right of the Acquired Companies to use the Retained Names and Marks shall terminate as of the Closing and shall immediately revert to the Seller or one or more of its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies), along with any and all goodwill associated therewith. The Buyer further acknowledges that it has no rights, and is not acquiring any rights, to use the Retained Names and Marks, except as provided herein.

&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) The Acquired Companies shall, for a period of ninety (90) days after the Closing Date (or until Existing Stock is exhausted), be entitled to use, solely in connection with the operation of their business as operated immediately prior to the Closing, all of the existing stocks of signs, letterheads, advertisements and promotional materials, inventory, websites and other documents and materials containing the Retained Names and Marks ("<u>Existing Stock</u>"), after which period the Buyer shall, and shall cause each Acquired Company to, remove or obliterate all Retained Names and Marks from such Existing Stock or cease using such Existing Stock in any manner.

&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) The Buyer shall, as soon as practicable after the Closing but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the Closing, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to, take all actions necessary (including the filing of amended organizational documents and any other required documentation with the relevant Governmental Authorities) to change each of the Acquired Companies' corporate names, "doing business as" names, trade names, design and any other similar corporate identifiers, in each case that include the Retained Names and Marks or any other name or trademark owned by the Seller or any of its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) after the Closing, or any name or trademark incorporating, combining or associating any, or that is confusingly similar to any of the foregoing, to cease use of any such Retained Names and Marks and any other such name or trademark, and to supply promptly any additional information, documents and materials that may be requested by the Seller with respect to such filings.

&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) Except as expressly provided in this <u>Section 6.14(d)</u> in connection with the Existing Stock, no other right to use the Retained Names and Marks is granted by the Seller to the Buyer whether by implication or otherwise, and nothing hereunder shall permit the Buyer to use the Retained Names and Marks in any manner. The Buyer shall, and shall cause each Acquired Company to, ensure that all uses of the Retained Names and Marks as provided in this <u>Section 6.14</u> shall be only with respect to goods and services of a level of quality equal to or greater than the quality of goods and services with respect to which the Acquired Companies used the Retained Names and Marks prior to the Closing. Any and all goodwill generated by the use of the Retained Names and Marks under this <u>Section 6.14</u> shall inure solely to the benefit of the Seller. The Buyer shall cause each Acquired Company not to, (i) use the Retained Names and Marks hereunder in any manner that may damage, impair or tarnish the reputation of the Seller or its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) or the goodwill associated with the Retained Names and Marks; or (ii) contest or challenge the ownership or validity of any of the Retained Names and Marks.

&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) The Buyer agrees that the Seller and its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies) shall have no responsibility for claims by third parties arising out of, or relating to, the use by the Acquired Companies of any Retained Names and Marks after the Closing. In addition to any and all other available remedies, the Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies), successors and assigns, from and against any and all such claims that may arise out of the use of the Retained Names and Marks by the Acquired Companies (i) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this <u>Section 6.14</u>, other than such claims that the Retained Names and Marks infringe the Intellectual Property rights of any third party or (ii) in violation of or outside the scope permitted by this <u>Section 6.14</u>. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Buyer hereby acknowledges that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this <u>Section 6.14</u>, the Seller, in addition to any other remedies available to it, shall be entitled to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order or other equivalent relief restraining the Acquired Companies from any such breach or threatened breach.

&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) The Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to not, hold itself out as having any affiliation, association or relationship with the Seller or any of its Affiliates (excluding the Acquired Companies), other than as may be required by applicable Law. The Buyer acknowledges that use of the Retained Names and Marks by the Acquired Companies pursuant to this <u>Section 6.14</u> shall not be deemed an endorsement by the Seller of the Buyer's products or services, nor be deemed an affiliation between the Parties or their Affiliates (including between the Seller and any of the Acquired Companies).

Section 6.15 <u>Shared Contracts</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) At, or immediately prior to the Closing, the Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies) to, with respect to each Contract listed in <u>Schedule 6.15</u> of the Disclosure Schedules (each, a "<u>Shared Contract</u>"), (i) if practicable and permitted by the terms of such Shared <u>Contract</u>, assign to an Acquired Company the portion of the rights and Liabilities (whether arising prior to, on or following the Closing Date) under such Shared Contract as they relate to the Business (and such Acquired Company shall, in each case, accept such assignment and assume and agree to discharge all such Liabilities) (a "<u>Partial Assignment</u>"), or (ii) if a Partial Assignment is not practicable or so permitted, work with the third-party counterparty(ies) to such Shared Contract in an effort to otherwise divide, modify or replicate (in whole or in part) such Shared Contract in a manner that replicates, to the greatest extent possible, the substantive effect of a Partial Assignment (a "<u>Contract Split</u>"), including by structuring a Contract Split such that, effective as of its completion, (A) the applicable Acquired Company is the beneficiary of the rights and are responsible for the Liabilities related to the Business under such Shared Contract and the Seller (and its Affiliates other than the Acquired Companies) have no rights or Liabilities under such Shared Contract that are related to the Business, and (B) the Seller (or one of its Affiliates other than the Acquired Companies) is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the Liabilities under such Shared Contract that are not related to the Business and the Acquired Companies have no rights or Liabilities under such Shared Contract that are not related to the Business. In the event that a Contract Split is necessary but not achieved prior to the Closing, the terms of <u>Section 6.15(b)</u> will apply until a Contract Split is achieved (or, if earlier, the termination of the applicable Shared Contract).

&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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this <u>Section 6.15</u>, if any Shared Contract transferable as part of the transactions contemplated by this <u>Section 6.15</u> is not assignable, transferable or conveyable to the transferee specified in this <u>Section 6.15</u> without the consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or other third party, and such consent or approval has not been obtained or such other requirement has not been satisfied at or prior to the Closing, the Closing shall nonetheless take place and no assignment, transfer or assumption thereof shall occur unless and until such consent or approval has been obtained or such other requirement has been satisfied (and the Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate to effect any such assignment, transfer or assumption as soon as practicable after such consent or approval has been obtained or such other requirement has been satisfied). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties shall nevertheless cooperate in good faith to plan the Contract Split so that it is completed by Closing or, if not practicable, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, on a mutually agreed schedule that avoids material disruption to the Business. If, acting in good faith, the Parties determine that a Contract Split will not be carried out prior to Closing and such Contract Split is reasonably required to ensure that the Business is conducted in the Ordinary Course of Business, the Parties shall, prior to Closing, negotiate in good faith and execute an agreed-form transitional services agreement that specifies scope, service levels, duration, pricing and exit criteria, which shall survive until the earlier of (i) completion of a Contract Split and (ii) termination or expiration of the applicable Contract. Until the earlier of such time as (i) a consent, approval or other requirement referred to in this <u>Section 6.15(b)</u> is obtained or satisfied, as applicable, or (ii) expiration or termination of the applicable Contract, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, and the Buyer shall, and shall cause the Acquired Companies to, (A) use its respective commercially reasonable efforts and cooperate with each other to obtain such consent or approval or to satisfy such other requirement as soon as practicable after the Closing, (B) use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to provide the applicable intended transferee the benefits of the relevant Shared Contract and cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to provide such benefits to the applicable intended transferee, and (C) cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to procure the assumption of the relevant Liabilities by the applicable intended transferee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, from and after the Closing, the Buyer shall, and shall cause each of the Acquired Companies to, discharge all Liabilities relating to any such relevant Shared Contracts of which the Buyer or any of the Acquired Companies is the intended transferee hereunder, and the Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, discharge all Liabilities relating to any such relevant Liabilities of which such Affiliate is the intended transferee hereunder.

&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) If the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, or the Buyer or any of the Affiliates, on the other hand, receives any benefit or payment which under any Shared Contract was intended for the other, the Seller and the Buyer will use their respective reasonable best efforts to, and to cause their respective Affiliates to, deliver such benefit or payment to the other party.

&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) None of the Seller or its Affiliates shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or pay any money or otherwise grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third Person to obtain any assignment or conveyance with respect to any Shared Contract.

&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) If either Party, acting in good faith, identifies a Contract that constitutes a Shared Contract but was inadvertently omitted from <u>Schedule 6.15</u> of the Disclosure Schedules, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party, and <u>Schedule 6.15</u> of the Disclosure Schedules shall be automatically deemed supplemented to include such Contract. Any Contract added pursuant to the foregoing shall be treated as a Shared Contract for all purposes of this <u>Section 6.15</u>, and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to effect a Partial Assignment or Contract Split with respect thereto in accordance with this <u>Section 6.15</u>.

Section 6.16 <u>Financing</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) The Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, advisable or proper, to obtain funds sufficient to fund the Estimated Purchase Price and any other amounts payable by the Buyer hereunder or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including the payment of all of the Buyer's and its Affiliates' costs and expenses incurred in the evaluation, negotiation and execution of the transactions contemplated hereby). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, advisable or proper to obtain the proceeds of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters on or prior to the Closing Date on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Commitment Letters, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letters and any Definitive Debt Financing Agreements in accordance with the terms thereof and complying with its obligations thereunder; (ii) satisfy on a timely basis, and in a manner that will not impede the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby promptly upon the Closing Date, all conditions to the funding of the Financing set forth in the Commitment Letters and the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements; (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive debt financing agreements on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (the "<u>Definitive Debt Financing Agreements</u>") and (iv) consummate the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing. In the event that all conditions contained in this Agreement, in any Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements have been satisfied, the Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Debt Financing Sources thereunder or the Equity Sponsor, as applicable, to comply with their respective obligations, including to fund the Financing and to pay related fees and expenses on the Closing Date. The Buyer shall comply with its obligations, and enforce its rights, under the Commitment Letters and Definitive Debt Financing Agreements in a timely and diligent manner. Upon the prior written request of the Seller, the Buyer shall inform the Seller in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters and any other financing and the Buyer shall give the Seller prompt notice of (A) any fact, change, event or circumstance that is reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse impact on the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters; (B) any breach by any party to the Commitment Letters or Definitive Debt Financing Agreements of which the Buyer has become aware; (C) the expiration or termination (or attempted or purported termination, whether or not valid) of the Commitment Letters; (D) any written or electronic (including email) notice or communication by any Debt Financing Source with respect to any actual or threatened in writing breach, default (or allegation thereof) or repudiation by any party to any Commitment Letter or any Definitive Debt Financing Agreement or any refusal to provide, or stated intent that it will not provide, by any Debt Financing Source the full amount of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter for any reason; (E) the Buyer's belief, for any reason, that it may no longer be able to obtain all or any portion of any Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letters on the terms and conditions described therein or (F) receipt of any written notice or other written communication with respect to any (1) actual or potential material breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letters or any Definitive Debt Financing Agreement, (2) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Commitment Letters or any Definitive Debt Financing Agreement (other than ordinary course negotiations) or (3) the failure of any condition to the Debt Financing to be satisfied.

&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) Prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall not agree to or permit any termination, amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of, or waive any of its rights under, the Commitment Letters or Definitive Debt Financing Agreements without the Seller's prior written consent (which such consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); <u>provided</u> that the Buyer may, without the Seller's prior written consent: (i) enter into any amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification to or waiver of any provision of the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Debt Financing Agreements that would not, and would not reasonably be expected to, (A) reduce the amount of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, (B) adversely affect the ability of the Buyer to enforce its rights against any other party to the Debt Commitment Letter or the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements, in each case, as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, relative to the ability of the Buyer to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof, (C) prevent, delay or impede the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Debt Financing or (D) impose any new or additional conditions, or otherwise expand any of the conditions, to the availability and funding of Debt Financing as contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter; and (ii) amend, replace, supplement or otherwise modify the Debt Commitment Letter solely to add lenders, lead arrangers, book runners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement. Upon any such amendment, replacement, supplement, modification or waiver, the terms "Debt Commitment Letter" and "Definitive Debt Financing Agreement" shall mean the Debt Commitment Letter or Definitive Debt Financing Agreement, as applicable, as so amended, replaced, supplemented or modified. The Buyer shall promptly deliver to the Seller copies of any such amendment, replacement, supplement or other modification of the Debt Commitment Letter or any such waiver of a provision of the Debt 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;(c) If all or any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, or the Debt Commitment Letter or any of the Definitive Debt Financing Agreements shall be withdrawn, repudiated, terminated or rescinded, regardless of the reason therefor, then the Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to (i) arrange and obtain, as promptly as practicable, from the same or alternative financing sources, alternative debt financing in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the timeframe contemplated by this Agreement and pay the Estimated Purchase Price, and any other amounts due from the Buyer hereunder upon terms and conditions not less favorable to the Buyer, taken as a whole, as those in the Debt Commitment Letter in respect of the Debt Financing which has become unavailable and (ii) promptly notify the Seller of such unavailability and the reason therefor. In the event any alternative financing is obtained in accordance with this <u>Section 6.16(c)</u> ("<u>Alternative Financing</u>"), references in this Agreement to the "Debt Financing" shall also be deemed to refer to such Alternative Financing and, if one or more commitment letters or definitive financing agreements are entered into or proposed to be entered into in connection with such Alternative Financing, references in this Agreement to the "Debt Commitment Letter" and the "Definitive Debt Financing Agreements" shall also be deemed to refer to such commitment letters and definitive financing agreements relating to such Alternative Financing, and all obligations of the Buyer pursuant to this <u>Section 6.16</u> shall be applicable thereto to the same extent as the Buyer's obligations with respect to the Debt 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;(d) The Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions of <u>Section 6.16</u> and <u>Section 6.17</u> set forth the sole obligations of the Buyer, its Affiliates and any of their Representatives with respect to the Debt Financing or any Alternative Financing.

Section 6.17 <u>Financing Cooperation.</u>

The Seller further acknowledges that the Seller's and IHS Brasil's cooperation is necessary to facilitate Buyer's compliance with <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)</u> and, as such, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at Closing, the Seller agrees to cause IHS Brasil to comply with Buyer's reasonable instructions to the extent necessary and consistent with this Agreement and <u>Section 2.4(b)(i)(B)</u>, in order for IHS Brasil to be in a position to make the payments contemplated in <u>Sections 2.4(b)(i)(B)(1)</u> and <u>2.4(b)(i)(B)(2)</u>.

The Seller, the Acquired Companies and their Affiliates shall be deemed to have complied with this Section for all purposes of this Agreement unless the Debt Financing has not been obtained and the Acquired Companies' Willful Breach of this Section proximately caused the Debt Financing not to be obtained.

&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) Except for the occurrence of the Buyer Fundraising Milestone, the Buyer acknowledges and agrees that in no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or any financing by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Financing) be a condition to any of the Buyer's obligations hereunder and nothing in this <u>Section 6.17(g)</u> limits or qualifies the Buyer's obligations under <u>Section 6.16</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;(b) Within three (3) Business Days following receipt of a written request from Seller, the Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a certificate of a duly authorized officer (solely in such Persons' capacity as such) of the Buyer certifying whether or not the Buyer Fundraising Milestone has occurred; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that nothing herein shall obligate Buyer, or any of the Buyer's Affiliates to disclose to the Seller the actual amounts of capital committed to or raised by the Guarantor or any member of the Buyer Group (or any of their respective successors or related vehicles) or the identity of any Persons that have committed capital to Guarantor or any member of the Buyer 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;(b) The Seller shall keep the Buyer reasonably informed of the status and progress of such liquidation and shall provide periodic written updates, upon the Buyer's reasonable request, until such liquidations are completed.

&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) The Parties acknowledge and agree that completion of the liquidations of the Dutch/BVI Entities shall not be a condition to the Closing.

Section 6.20 <u>Wrong Pockets</u>. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, in the event that, at any time or from time to time for a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing, if either Party or any of its Affiliates (such Person, the "<u>Relevant Person</u>"):

Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by Taxing Authorities.

Each of the Parties hereto, absent Fraud, hereby irrevocably releases and discharges the other Parties and their respective Representatives and Affiliates from any and all claims, demands, actions, cause of actions, obligations, costs, damages and liabilities of any nature or kind whatsoever which such Party has or may have in respect of such non-surviving representations and warranties, whether at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

Section 8.3 <u>Indemnification by the Buyer</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) Before making any claims hereunder, each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable best efforts to recover under insurance policies (including, in the case of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, the RWI Policy, if one is obtained) for any Losses to the same extent such Person would if such Losses were not subject to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement hereunder. The amount of any Losses that are subject to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under <u>Section 8.3</u> shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds in respect of such Losses or any of the events, conditions, facts or circumstances resulting in or relating to such Losses, net of any collection costs, deductibles and any other Taxes or Losses incurred in connection with the collection of such payments ("<u>Third Party Payments</u>") actually received.

&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) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) in no event shall any Party be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, compensate or reimburse any Indemnified Party for Losses under this <u>Section 8.4(b)</u> to the extent such Losses were taken into account in the determination of the Purchase Price and (ii) any Losses subject to indemnification hereunder shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Losses.

Section 8.5 <u>Obligation to mitigate the risk of loss</u>. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate, in good faith and to the extent practicable any Loss subject to indemnification pursuant to this <u>Article VIII</u> promptly upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would reasonably be expected to constitute or give rise to such Loss.

&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) If any Third Party institutes or asserts any Action that may constitute a Loss for which any Party may be liable to indemnify hereunder (such Party, an "<u>Indemnifying Party</u>", and such claim, "<u>Third-Party Claim</u>"), then the Indemnified Party shall notify the respective Party of such Third-Party Claim ("<u>Notice of Third-Party Claim</u>") as promptly as reasonably practicable, which notice shall include a description in reasonable detail of (i) the basis for, and nature of, such Action, including the facts constituting the basis for such Action and (ii) the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Action. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure.

&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) The Indemnifying Party shall respond to the Indemnified Party, within fifteen (15) Business Days from the receipt of the Notice of Third-Party Claim, informing its decision to: (i) pay in full the amount involved in the Third-Party Claim; or (ii) assume the conduct of the defense, <u>provided</u> that counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim for equitable or injunctive relief or any claim that would impose criminal liability, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, any such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not expressly elect to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim within the time period, the Indemnified Party shall have the sole right to assume the defense of Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable and documented out of pocket fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense thereof.

&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) In the event that the defense of the Third-Party Claim is conducted by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall be responsible for making all arrangements for the defense of the Third-Party Claims, including, the reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses of litigation, and the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for any Losses incurred as a result of the defense of the Third-Party Claim. In such event, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, through its appointed counsel and at its own expense, to participate as an assistant to the defense of the Third-Party Claim, including by assisting in the strategy of the defense, and in any event to receive all information for the follow-up of such defense, including interviews with the counsel of the respective Indemnified Party appointed to defend the Third-Party Claim, copies of the defense and any and all subsequent claims and petitions, attorneys' opinions and reports, and all other material documentation related to the corresponding 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;(d) In the event that the Third-Party Claim defense is conducted by the Indemnifying Party, (i) the Indemnifying Party will keep the Indemnified Party informed of the applicable Third-Party Claim upon delivery of a reasonable written request to the Indemnifying Party; and (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, at its own expense and with its own counsel, as an assistant to the defense of the Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall periodically consult in good faith with the Indemnified Party on matters relating to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, and upon delivery of a reasonable written request, which shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed, the Indemnifying Party shall provide the Indemnified Party with copies of all claims and correspondence thereto in connection with such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third-Party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) requires any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives to (1) admit any wrongdoing or liability, acknowledge any rights of any Person or otherwise contain any finding, conclusion or admission of wrongdoing or liability or acknowledgment of any rights of any other Person, (2) take or refrain from taking any action or (3) waive or otherwise relinquish any rights that any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives may have against the plaintiffs in such Third-Party Claim, (B) does not include an unconditional (or conditioned upon payment) written final and full release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability and obligations in respect of such Third-Party Claim or (C) imposes on any Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates or Representatives any liability or continuing obligations (including any equitable remedies) other than solely the payment of money damages for which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder.

&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) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including by retaining and providing to the party controlling such defense records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim and making available employees on a mutually convenient basis for providing additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, that is controlling such defense shall keep the other party reasonably advised of the status of such proceeding and the defense thereof.

Section 8.7 <u>Direct Claims</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) Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim ("<u>Direct Claim</u>"), shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party a written notice thereof ("<u>Direct Claim Notice</u>") as promptly as reasonably practicable which notice shall include a description in reasonable detail of (i) the basis for, and nature of, such Direct Claim, including the facts constituting the basis for such Direct Claim as well as a copy of any documents related to the Direct Claim and (ii) the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure.

&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) The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such Direct Claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions 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) If the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees: (i) to be responsible for payment of the Loss in question; and (ii) to the amount presented in the Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party the indemnity claimed in the manner provided for in <u>Section 8.8</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;(d) If the Indemnifying Party states that it is not responsible for the Direct Claim or does not agree with the amount of the Loss presented in the Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.8 <u>Payment of Indemnities</u>. Any amount due in accordance with this <u>Article VIII</u>, in relation to any Loss actually suffered or incurred under the terms above, shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party observing the procedure described below:

&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) with respect to a Third-Party Claim, within ten (10) Business Days from the date on which (i) the Indemnifying Party agrees to pay in full the amount involved in the Third-Party Claim; or (ii) a court judgment or decision becomes final and unappealable, or from the date on which a settlement is approved by the competent court or an out-of-court settlement is entered into in writing between the Parties, in accordance with this Agreement; 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;(b) with respect to a Direct Claim, within ten (10) Business Days from the date on which (i) a Direct Claim Notice is not contested within the thirty (30) day period after reception thereof, (ii) the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees to be responsible for the indemnity sought and with all or part (in this case, with respect to the undisputed portion) of the amount informed in the Direct Claim Notice; or (iii) a settlement has been entered into in writing between the Parties or a final non-appealable order, judgment or decision have been entered.

Section 8.9 <u>Materiality Scrape</u>. For all purposes of this <u>Article VIII</u>, in determining (i) the amount of any Losses suffered by an Indemnified Party related to any inaccuracy in or breach of an representation or warranty and (ii) whether there is any inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty, all qualifications or exceptions in such representation or warranty relating to or referring to "material" or "Material Adverse Effect" or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded.

Section 8.10 <u>Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments</u>. All indemnification payments made under this <u>Article VIII</u> shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by the Applicable Law. All amounts payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement shall be made in full, free and clear of any Taxes. If any deduction or withholding for Taxes is required by applicable Laws, the Indemnifying Party shall increase the amount payable so that the Indemnified Party receives the amount it would have received absent such deduction, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear and timely remit such Taxes (including any related penalties and interest) to the applicable Tax Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, upon request, shall provide the Indemnified Party with reasonable evidence of such remittance. Any amounts so deducted or withheld and remitted shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Indemnified Party.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Buyer shall have the right to assign or delegate, in whole or in part, its rights, obligations and contractual position under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates, <u>provided</u> that such assignment is duly notified to the Seller and no assignment shall limit the assignor's obligations hereunder. Seller may not assign any of their rights under this Agreement, including the right to receive the Purchase Price, to one or more Affiliates of the Seller without the prior written consent of the Buyer. Subject to the preceding sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 11.12 <u>Specific Performance</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) Subject to <u>Section 11.12(b)</u>, the Parties agree that if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not to be performed as required by their specific terms or were to be otherwise breached, irreparable damage (for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy) will occur to the other Parties, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages would be difficult to determine. It is accordingly agreed that, subject to <u>Section 11.12(b)</u>, the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable) and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement. Subject to <u>Section 11.12(b)</u>, no Party shall oppose, argue, contend or otherwise be permitted to raise as a defense that an adequate remedy at law exists or that specific performance or equitable or injunctive relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason with respect to any breach of this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereby waives: (i) any defenses in any action for specific performance, including the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate; and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief. The Parties further agree that: (A) by seeking the remedies provided for in this <u>Section 11.12</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) in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the remedies provided for in this <u>Section 11.12</u> are not available or otherwise are not granted; and (B) nothing in this <u>Section 11.12</u> shall require any Party to institute any Action for (or limit any Party's right to institute any Action for) specific performance under this <u>Section 11.12</u> prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under <u>Article X</u> (or pursuing damages prior to or after such termination), nor shall the commencement of any Action pursuant to this <u>Section 11.12</u> or anything set forth in this <u>Section 11.12</u> restrict or limit any Party's right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of <u>Article X</u> or to pursue any other remedies under this Agreement that may be available then or thereafter. If any Party brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof by any other Party, the Termination Date shall automatically be extended by: (1) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days; or (2) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall this <u>Section 11.12</u> be used, alone or together with any other provision of this Agreement, to require the Seller to remedy any breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller or the Acquired Companies.

&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) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, including the provisions of <u>Section 11.12(a)</u>, the right of the Seller or the Acquired Companies to obtain an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief with respect to the obligation of the Buyer to have the Equity Financing be funded and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall only be available if (i) all conditions to the Closing set forth in <u>Section 9.1</u> and <u>Section 9.3</u> have been satisfied or waived (other than such conditions as may, by their terms, only be satisfied at the Closing or on the Closing Date) as of the first date on which the Closing was required to occur pursuant to <u>Section 2.3</u> (other than those conditions that by their terms or nature are to be satisfied by performance at the Closing), (ii) if the Equity Financing were to be funded at the Closing, substantially simultaneously therewith, the Debt Financing is or would be funded at the Closing and (iii) the Seller has sent written notice to the Buyer confirming that (A) all of the conditions set forth in <u>Section 9.1</u> and <u>Section 9.3</u> have been satisfied or waived (other than such conditions as may, by their terms, only be satisfied at the Closing or on the Closing Date) and (B) if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing and the Debt Financing are funded, then the Seller stands ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller and the Acquired Companies may pursue a grant of specific performance as expressly permitted by this <u>Section 11.12</u> and the payment of monetary damages by the Buyer, but under no circumstances shall the Buyer be obligated both with respect to (1) specific performance to consummate the Equity Financing and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (2) to pay monetary damages in accordance with <u>Section 10.2</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;(c) The foregoing is in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled at law, in equity or otherwise. The Parties further agree that nothing set forth in this <u>Section 11.12</u> shall require any Party to institute any Action for (or limit any Party's right to institute any Action for) specific performance under this <u>Section 11.12</u> prior to or as a condition to exercising any termination right under <u>Article X</u> (and pursuing damages after such termination). The Parties agree that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary but subject to <u>Section 11.12(b)</u>, the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance (or any other equitable relief) to cause the Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.13 <u>Non-Recourse</u>. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto (and the relevant parties under the Confidentiality Agreement) and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Without limiting the obligations of the Buyer pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement, except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named party in this Agreement), (i) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any named party to this Agreement and (ii) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing, in each case of the Persons described in the foregoing <u>clauses (i)</u> and <u>(ii)</u>, shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of the Seller, the Acquired Companies or the Buyer under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 11.14 <u>Currency</u>. All references to "dollars" or "$" or "US$" in this Agreement refer to United States dollars, which is the currency used for all purposes in this Agreement.

Section 11.15 <u>Severability</u>. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

Section 11.16 <u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

Section 11.17 <u>.pdf Signature</u>. This Agreement may be executed by .pdf signature and a .pdf signature shall constitute an original for all purposes.

Section 11.18 <u>Time of Essence</u>. Time is of the essence with regard to all dates and time periods set forth or referred to in this Agreement.

Section 11.19 <u>Legal Representation</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) The Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) acknowledges and agrees that Allen Overy Shearman Sterling US LLP ("<u>AOS</u>") has acted as counsel for the Seller and the Acquired Companies in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the "<u>Acquisition Engagement</u>"), and in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, AOS has not acted as counsel for any other Person, including the Buyer.

&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) Only the Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates shall be considered clients of AOS in the Acquisition Engagement. The Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies), acknowledges and agrees that all confidential communications between the Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and AOS, on the other hand, in the course of the Acquisition Engagement, and any attendant attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection, and expectation of client confidentiality applicable thereto, shall be deemed to belong solely to the Seller and their Affiliates (other than the Acquired Companies), and not the Acquired Companies, and shall not pass to or be claimed, held or used by the Buyer or the Acquired Companies upon or after the Closing. Accordingly, the Buyer shall not have access to any such communications, or to the files of AOS relating to the Acquisition Engagement, whether or not the Closing occurs. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon and after the Closing, (i) to the extent that files of AOS in respect of the Acquisition Engagement constitute property of the client, only the Seller and their Affiliates shall hold such property rights and (ii) AOS shall have no duty whatsoever to reveal or disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to the Acquired Companies or the Buyer by reason of any attorney-client relationship between AOS and the Acquired Companies or otherwise; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that notwithstanding the foregoing, AOS shall not disclose any such attorney-client communications or files to any third parties (other than representatives, accountants and advisors of the Seller and its Affiliates; <u>provided</u> that such representatives, accounts and advisors are instructed to maintain the confidence of such attorney-client communications) except as may be required by applicable Law or pursuant to a subpoena, court order, civil investigative demand or similar judicial process or similar request issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental or regulatory authority. The Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) irrevocably waives any right it may have to discover or obtain information or documentation relating to the Acquisition Engagement, to the extent that such information or documentation was subject to an attorney-client privilege, work product protection or other expectation of confidentiality owed to the Seller or its Affiliates. If and to the extent that, at any time subsequent to Closing, the Buyer or the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) shall have the right to assert or waive any attorney-client privilege with respect to any communication between the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates and any Person representing them that occurred at any time prior to the Closing, the Buyer, on behalf of itself and of the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies), shall be entitled to waive such privilege only with the prior written consent of the Seller (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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) acknowledges and agrees that AOS has acted as counsel for the Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective Affiliates for several years and that the Seller reasonably anticipates that AOS will continue to represent them or their Affiliates in future matters. Accordingly, the Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) expressly (i) consents to AOS's representation of the Seller or its Affiliates or any of their respective agents (if any of the foregoing Persons so desire) in any matter relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, including, any post-Closing matter in which the interests of the Buyer and the Acquired Companies, on the one hand, and the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse, including any matter relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and whether or not such matter is one in which AOS may have previously advised either Seller, the Acquired Companies or their respective Affiliates and (ii) consents to the disclosure by AOS to the Seller or its Affiliates of any information learned by AOS in the course of its representation of the Seller, the Acquired Companies or their respective Affiliates, whether or not such information is subject to attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection, or AOS's duty of confidentiality.

&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) The Buyer, on behalf of itself and the Buyer Group (including after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) further covenants and agrees that each shall not assert any claim against AOS in respect of legal services provided to the Acquired Companies or their Affiliates by AOS in connection with 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;(e) From and after the Closing, the Acquired Companies shall cease to have any attorney-client relationship with AOS, unless and to the extent AOS is expressly engaged in writing by the Acquired Companies to represent any of the Acquired Companies after the Closing and either (i) such engagement involves no conflict of interest with respect to the Seller or any of its Affiliates or (ii) the Seller or any such Affiliate, as applicable, consent in writing to such engagement. Any such representation of any of the Acquired Companies by AOS after the Closing shall not affect the foregoing provisions hereof. Furthermore, AOS, in its sole discretion, shall be permitted to withdraw from representing the applicable Acquired Company in order to represent or continue so representing the 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;(f) The Seller and the Buyer consent to the arrangements in this <u>Section 11.19(f)</u> and waive any actual or potential conflict of interest that may be involved in connection with any representation by AOS permitted hereunder.

Section 11.20 <u>No Presumption Against Drafting Party</u>. Each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges that each party to this Agreement has been represented by legal counsel in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities in this Agreement against the drafting party has no application and is expressly waived.

Section 11.21 <u>Prevailing Party</u>. If there shall occur any dispute or proceeding among the Parties relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, the non-prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of the prevailing party.

Section 11.22 <u>Debt Financing Sources</u>. Subject to the rights of the parties to the Debt Commitment Letter under the terms thereof, none of the Parties, nor any of their respective, direct or indirect, former, current or future general or limited partners, managers, members, stockholders, officers, directors, Affiliates, employees, representatives, agents, successors or assigns (collectively, the "<u>Related Persons</u>"), shall have any rights or claims against any Financing Source or its Related Persons in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, nor shall any Financing Source or its Related Persons have any obligations or liabilities to the Parties or their respective Related Persons, all of which are hereby waived (<u>provided</u> that nothing in this <u>Section 11.22</u> shall in any way limit or modify any of the obligations owed under the Debt Commitment Letter or definitive documentation for the Debt Financing by the Financing Sources), and no Financing Source or its Related Persons shall have any rights or claims against any Party or any Related Person thereof, in connection with this Agreement or the Debt Financing, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise.

Section 11.23 <u>Seller Parent Guaranty</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) The Seller Parent hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees and hereby assumes jointly and severally with the Seller, the obligations of the Seller (or its assignee or assignees, as permitted under this Agreement) under this Agreement. The guaranty provided pursuant to this <u>Section 11.23</u> (the "<u>Seller Parent Guaranty</u>") is a guaranty of payment and performance. The Seller Parent's obligations hereunder shall not be contingent upon the exercise or enforcement of any other rights or remedies the Buyer may have against the Seller (or its assignee or assignees).

&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) The Seller Parent waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Seller or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Seller; (ii) any defense based on any claim that the Seller Parent's obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Seller; (iii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Seller Parent's liability hereunder; (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable Law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties; (v) notice of acceptance of the Seller Parent Guaranty or of the existence or creation of the Seller Parent Guaranty; (vi) presentment, demand, protest or notice of dishonor, nonpayment or other default with respect to the Seller Parent Guaranty and all other notices whatsoever; (vii) any requirement that the Buyer institute suit or otherwise exhaust its rights or remedies against the Seller or against any other Person prior to enforcing any rights they have hereunder or otherwise against the Seller Parent; and (viii) all suretyship defenses generally (other than defenses to the payment of the obligations that are available to the Seller under 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) The Seller Parent waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any obligation incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of the Seller any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the obligations of the Seller. The Seller Parent agrees (x) that its obligations with respect to the Seller Parent Guaranty shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by the failure or delay of the Buyer to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Seller or any other Person hereunder, and (y) that it shall not (and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to) transfer, assign, pledge, mortgage, convey or dispose of (including by operation of Law or otherwise) all or a material portion of the assets held by the Seller Parent as of the date hereof without the Buyer's prior written consent.

&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) The Seller Parent represents and warrants to the Buyer that (i) the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller Parent of this Agreement has been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other similar action of the Seller Parent, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller Parent, and this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller Parent, enforceable against the Seller Parent in accordance with its terms; (ii) to the extent that this Agreement, including this <u>Section 11.23(d)</u>, must be in a form that is acceptable to the Seller Parent, the Seller Parent has approved this Agreement as in effect on the date hereof; and (iii) no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, constitutes or would reasonably be expected to constitute a breach, default or event of default on the part of the Seller Parent under this Agreement or would adversely affect the Seller Parent's obligations, or the Buyer's rights in connection with the Seller Parent Guaranty.

[The remainder of this page is intentionally left blank.]
