Interests in the Subsidiaries (the “Purchase Price”) shall be Four Hundred Seventy Million Dollars ($470,000,000) (i) minus the amount, if any, by which the 

 
Reference Net Asset Value exceeds the Estimated Closing Net Asset Value; and (ii) plus the amount, if any, by which the Estimated Net Asset Value
exceeds the Reference Net Asset Value (the “Estimated Purchase Price”), which Estimated Purchase Price is subject to post-Closing adjustment as provided in Sections 5.02, 5.03 and 5.05 of this Agreement. At the Closing, Buyer shall
assume the Assumed Liabilities and shall pay the Estimated Purchase Price to the Sellers by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by the Sellers. 
 (b) At least three business days prior to the Closing Date, Sellers shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a good faith estimate of the Net
Asset Value as of the Adjustment Time (the “Estimated Closing Net Asset Value”), along with a summary showing in reasonable detail Sellers’ calculation of such amount. 
 5.02 Adjustment of Estimated Purchase Price. 
 (a) Preparation of Closing Net Asset Value Statement. As promptly as possible and in any event within forty (40) Business Days
after the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and shall provide to Buyer a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail its determination of the Closing Net Asset Value (the “Closing Net Asset Value
Statement”). The Closing Net Asset Value Statement shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis with Sellers’ prior practice and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, in accordance with the accounting
methodologies, principles, procedures and assumptions used in preparing the Sample Pro Forma Closing Net Asset Value Statement attached hereto as Exhibit 5.02 (collectively, the “Accounting Principles”), and will be
prepared in a form and manner in and on a basis consistent with the form and manner in and basis on which the sample pro forma Closing Net Asset Value Statement (defined below) attached hereto as Exhibit 5.02 (which, solely for
illustrative purposes, assumes that the Closing occurred on December 30, 2005, the “Sample Pro Forma Closing Net Asset Value Statement”) was prepared. The Accounting Principles and the Sample Pro Forma Closing Net Asset Value
Statement attached as Exhibit 5.02 have been prepared on a pro forma basis assuming that the Securitization Program did not exist. Johnson Polymer will repurchase all then outstanding Receivables subject to the Securitization Program
prior to Closing, and such Receivables will be included in the Closing Net Asset Value Statement. The Closing Net Asset Value Statement shall be prepared by Sellers based on the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Business. Buyer shall provide
Sellers with access to all relevant data, information and records, together with all appropriate personnel of Buyer and its Affiliates, for preparation of the Closing Net Asset Value Statement within the time period described above. This personnel
shall include, without limitation, access to Larry Berger and Thomas Wierzba. Buyer shall have reasonable access to the work papers used by the Sellers in the preparation of the Closing Net Asset Value Statement. The Sellers and Buyers agree that,
in accordance with the Accounting Principles, Sellers will engage Ernst & Young to audit the Closing Net Asset Value and the underlying combined and consolidated balance sheet for the Business and including the individual balance sheets
included therein and Ernst & Young shall perform such work and procedures as described in the Accounting Principles. Subject to any adjustment required by Section 5.03(b) below, the calculation of Closing Net Asset Value as of the
Adjustment Time and the Closing Net Asset Value Statement shall not reflect any changes or deviations from the Sample Pro Forma Closing Net Asset Value Statement or from GAAP applied on a consistent basis with Sellers’ prior 

 
practice and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, in accordance with the Accounting Principles. Sellers shall be responsible for all costs and expenses
associated with the work to be performed by Ernst & Young up to One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) and Buyer shall be responsible for all such costs and expenses over such amount. Sellers shall promptly pay Ernst & Young all
fees and expenses due upon completion of its engagement and delivery of the Closing Net Asset Value Statement and Buyer shall thereafter promptly reimburse Sellers for all amounts paid to Ernst & Young that exceed $100,000. 
 (b) Payment of Adjustment. If the Closing Net Asset Value as of the Adjustment Time, as finally determined pursuant to
Section 5.02(a) above and Section 5.03 below, exceeds the Reference Net Asset Value, then Buyer shall pay to the Sellers the difference between the two amounts, taking into account the amounts already deducted from or added to the Purchase
Price according to Section 5.01(a)(i) or (ii) above. If the Closing Net Asset Value is less than the Reference Net Asset Value, then the Sellers shall pay to Buyer the difference between the two amounts, taking into account the amounts
already deducted from or added to the Purchase Price according to Section 5.01(a)(i) or (ii) above. Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 5.02(b) shall be made within ten days after Buyer’s acceptance of the
Closing Net Asset Value Statement or, if applicable, within ten days after receipt of a determination and resolution of any dispute over the Closing Net Asset Value Statement as provided in Section 5.03 below. Any such amount payable pursuant
to this Section 5.02(b) shall be paid (i) together with interest (not compounded) thereon at the Applicable Rate from and including the Closing Date through the date immediately preceding the date of payment and (ii) by wire transfer
of immediately available funds (in U.S. Dollars) to an account or accounts designated in writing by the party entitled to receive such payment (or by such other means as are mutually agreeable to the parties). 
 5.03 Disputes Concerning Adjustment Under Section 5.02. 
 (a) The Sellers shall permit Buyer and its independent public accountant to review (at Buyer’s request and sole expense) all
accounting records and all work papers and computations used in the preparation of the Closing Net Asset Value Statement. If Buyer does not give a Dispute Notice, as described in Section 5.03(b) below, to the Sellers within thirty
(30) Business Days after receiving the Closing Net Asset Value Statement, Buyer shall be deemed to have agreed with the Closing Net Asset Value Statement presented by the Sellers. 
 (b) If Buyer delivers a Dispute Notice within the thirty (30) Business Day period described in Section 5.03(a) above, then
Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. In the event the Buyer disputes that any item in the Closing Net Asset Value Statement or the Accounting Principles are not in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent
with Sellers’ prior practice or the Sample Pro Forma Net Asset Value Statement, and it is ultimately determined that Buyer is correct, the Reference Net Asset Value and the Estimated Closing Net Asset Value shall all be adjusted and calculated
to reflect the final resolution of the Accounting Principles in accordance with GAAP so that all calculations and adjustments required under the terms of this Article V and the Agreement shall be calculated so that in all respects the same
accounting methodologies, principles, procedures and assumptions 

 
are used to determine the Reference Net Asset Value, the Estimated Closing Net Asset Value and the Closing Net Asset Value; provided, however, if the Sellers
change the Accounting Principles, then the Reference Net Asset Value, the Estimated Closing Net Asset Value and the Closing Net Asset Value shall not be readjusted and calculated to reflect such changes to the Accounting Principles. Corresponding
adjustments shall be made to the final payment to be made pursuant to 5.02(b). If, after twenty (20) days from the date a Dispute Notice is given hereunder, the Sellers and Buyer cannot agree on the resolution of the dispute, then the dispute
shall be submitted for arbitration by KPMG LLP (the “Accounting Firm”). Within twenty (20) days after the Accounting Firm accepts the engagement, as evidenced by an engagement letter signed by the Accounting Firm and the
parties hereto (the date of such acceptance being referred to herein as the “Engagement Date”), Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, shall prepare and submit to the Accounting Firm a written brief stating its
position on the disputed issue(s). Such briefs shall be submitted simultaneously by the parties. Within ten (10) days thereafter, the Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall prepare and submit to the Accounting Firm a
reply brief to the brief submitted by the other party or parties, as applicable. Such reply briefs shall be submitted simultaneously. Within forty (40) days after the Engagement Date, the Accounting Firm shall determine whether disputed issues
of material fact exist between the parties and, if such determination is made, shall require that an evidentiary hearing be held and completed not later than the fifty-fifth (55th) day after the Engagement Date. The Accounting Firm shall render its final decision and award regarding the disputed matters not later than the fifth
(5th) day after the evidentiary hearing is held or, if no evidentiary hearing is to be held, not later than the
forty-fifth (45th) day after the Engagement Date. When acting pursuant to this Section 5.03, the
Accounting Firm shall determine, using the Accounting Principles and the principles set forth in this Agreement and only with respect to those disputed items submitted, whether and to what extent, if any, the Sellers’ calculation of Closing Net
Asset Value (determined based on the Closing Net Asset Value Statement) requires adjustment. The Accounting Firm shall address only those issues in dispute, and may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed
by a party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by a party. In addition, the Accounting Firm shall apportion its fees and expenses between the Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in proportion to the difference
between the relative position of each party and the Accounting Firm’s ultimate determination with respect to the amount of the Closing Net Asset Value. The decision and award of the Accounting Firm, including the apportionment of its fees,
shall be final and binding on the parties and shall be subject to confirmation and entry of judgment in accordance with applicable law. The parties hereby consent and irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located
within Wisconsin and New Jersey for any action to enforce the Accounting Firm’s decision and award. In no event shall the Accounting Firm award either party consequential, incidental or punitive damages. The Sellers and Buyer shall make all
books, records and work papers reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm in connection with the resolution of the item(s) disputed hereunder available to the Accounting Firm. 
 5.04 Allocation. The consideration paid hereunder for the Purchased Assets and the Equity Interests in the First-Tier Subsidiaries
shall be allocated as determined and agreed to by the parties based on their good faith assessment of the relative values of the Purchased Assets and Equity Interests and shall be set forth in a schedule prepared in conjunction with the 

 
Closing. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, such allocation shall be binding on the parties for all Tax Returns. 
 5.05 Adjustment. If any payment is made by the Sellers to the Buyer in respect of any claim for any breach of this Agreement or
pursuant to any indemnity under this Agreement, the payment shall be made by way of adjustment of the Purchase Price (with appropriate changes made to the allocation described in Section 5.04) paid by the Buyer for the Purchased Assets and the
Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries and the Purchase Price shall be deemed to have been reduced by the amount of such payment. 
 6.

Business as of December 30, 2005 (the “Interim Balance Sheet”) and related audited statements of income for the 12-month period ending December 30, 2005 (such date being referred to herein as the “Interim Balance
Sheet Date”). 
 9.04 Business Changes. Except as otherwise disclosed in Section 9.04 of the
Disclosure Schedule and except for actions taken and/or changes made at the request of, or authorized by, Buyer, or otherwise taken or made pursuant to this Agreement, since the Interim Balance Sheet Date there has not been: 
 (a) with respect to the Business, the Sellers or the Purchased Assets (taken as a whole), any (i) material damage, destruction or

Inventory buying practices or accounts receivable collection practices, in contemplation of the transactions described in this Agreement; or 
 (d) any material change or modification of the Sellers’ accounting methods or practices with respect to the Business. 
 9.05 Real Property. Section 9.05 of the Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list and description of all Real Property owned or occupied by the Sellers and the Subsidiaries in connection with the
Business. Except as set forth in Section 9.05 of the Disclosure Schedule, there are no Material Contracts relating to or affecting the Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property to which either Seller or any Subsidiary is a party or by
which the Owned Real Property or Leased Real Property is otherwise bound or affected. To the Sellers’ knowledge, there are no material structural or nonstructural defects (including inadequacy for normal use of mechanical systems and fixtures)
in any of the buildings or their systems or fixtures (including the HVAC system, plumbing system, electrical system, sprinkler system and sewer and water systems), ordinary wear and tear excepted, situated on the Owned Real Property and all such
building systems, fixtures, and improvements, owned, leased or used by the Sellers, are in all material respects in good condition and working order (reasonable wear and tear excepted). Other than capital expenditures reserved or accrued for on the
Interim Balance Sheet or on the Closing Net 

 
Asset Value Statement or as provided in the excerpt from the Sellers’ current strategic plan which is set forth in Section 9.05 of the
Disclosure Schedule, the Sellers have no knowledge of material capital expenditures with respect to any parcel of the Real Property (excluding only normal repair made consistently with past practice) that would, at this time, be necessary to conduct
the Business as presently conducted at such parcels nor are any such expenditures planned by the Sellers or the Subsidiaries. Neither the whole or any portion of the Owned Real Property has been condemned, requisitioned or otherwise taken by any
public authority, and to the Sellers’ knowledge, no such condemnation, requisition or taking is threatened or contemplated. No public improvements have been commenced and to the Sellers’ knowledge there are no public improvements planned
which may reasonably be expected to result in special assessments against or otherwise materially and adversely affect any of the Owned Real Property. With respect to each parcel of the Leased Real Property, the Seller or Subsidiary that leases such
parcel holds a valid leasehold interest and there is no material default by such Seller or Subsidiary, as the case may be, or, to the Sellers’ knowledge, any other party under such Real Property lease. 
 9.06 Inventory. The Inventory is of a quality and quantity usable and saleable in the Ordinary Course of Business without discount
for excess quantities or obsolescence, except for the reserves reflected in the Interim Balance Sheet (as adjusted through the date of this Agreement and the Closing Net Asset Value Statement, as applicable). Except as described in
Section 9.06 of the Disclosure Schedule, no Inventory has been consigned to others. The quantity of Inventory is sufficient and adequate for, but is not materially in excess of the level appropriate to, the conduct of the Business as it
previously has been conducted, including pre-buys of materials consistent with past practice but in no event will Sellers and the Subsidiaries buy more than a sixty (60) day supply of such materials without discussing such purchases with Buyer.

 10. Representations and Warranties of Buyer. Buyer represents and warrants to the Sellers as
follows: 
 10.01 Corporate Organization. Buyer is a corporation validly existing under the laws of Germany. Buyer has
all corporate power and corporate authority to own, operate and lease its respective properties and carry on its respective businesses as now conducted. Buyer is duly licensed and qualified to do business in and is in good standing under the laws of
each jurisdiction where failure to do so would adversely affect the business of Buyer. 
 10.02 Authorization of
Agreement. Buyer has all necessary corporate power and corporate authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and the other agreements which are to be executed by Buyer pursuant to the terms hereof, and to consummate the transactions provided
for hereby and thereby and the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any such other agreement and which are to be executed by Buyer and the performance by it of the obligations to be performed hereunder and thereunder have been duly
authorized by all necessary action on the part of Buyer. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each other agreement to be executed by Buyer pursuant hereto, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will
not conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, (a) the terms or conditions of Buyer’s by-laws, or (b) any law, rule, regulation, statute, order, judgment or decree or any agreement or instrument to which
Buyer is a party or by which Buyer or its assets are bound or affected. This Agreement is, and each other agreement and document to be executed by Buyer pursuant hereto will be when so executed, a valid and binding obligation of Buyer enforceable in
accordance with their terms, except that enforcement may be limited by a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar law affecting creditors rights generally and by general equitable principles. 
 10.03 Financing. Buyer currently has sufficient funds or has delivered to the Sellers an executed commitment letter from its lender
indicating such lender’s commitment to extend financing to Buyer in an amount sufficient for purpose of financing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer has complied with all applicable federal, state, local and international
laws, rules or regulations (including securities laws and state blue sky laws) in connection with such financing activities. Buyer’s lender has completed its due diligence review of Buyer favorably. Buyer has no reason to believe financing for
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not be obtained. 
 11. Mutual Covenants and Agreements. 
 11.01 Reporting Assistance Obligations of Buyer. Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Sellers in preparing
information for various authorities after the Closing Date to the extent that such information relates to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Subsidiaries and/or the Purchased Assets. 
 11.02 Reporting Assistance Obligations of the Sellers. The Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer in
preparing information for various authorities after the Closing Date on the condition that such information relates to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Subsidiaries, and/or the Purchased Assets. 

 11.03 Treatment of Taxes and Fees; Allocation of Income. 
 (a) All Taxes or filing fees relating to the transfer of the Purchased Assets or the Equity Interests pursuant to this Agreement
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, HSR Act filing fees and other similar “merger control” filing fees and excluding any Taxes imposed with respect to any Seller’s gain or income from the sale of the Purchased Assets or the Equity
Interests hereunder), shall be shared equally between Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand. Unless a different period of notice is required under this Agreement, and subject to Section 11.03(h), the party that remits or
deposits such Taxes or fees shall notify the other party at least ten (10) Business Days before such payments are due, or if such payment were due earlier, as soon as reasonably possible after being notified of the amount to be paid, and shall
provide information related to such Taxes or fees as reasonably requested by the non-paying party. 
 (b) Except as provided
in Section 11.03(a) above and subject to the procedures set forth in this Section 11.03, Sellers covenant with Buyer to promptly pay and indemnify and hold harmless Buyer (and/or at Buyer’s election any Subsidiary) from and against
any Taxes or liability for any Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Subsidiaries, the Purchased Assets or the Business for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such
Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date (including, without limitation, any obligation to contribute to the payment of a Tax determined on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis with respect to the Subsidiaries) which have been
paid by Buyer or a Subsidiary after the Closing. In the event that Sellers or the Subsidiaries, after taking into account payments made by the Subsidiaries on or before the Closing Date, have overpaid the amount of any Tax which Sellers have agreed
to pay pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall pay Sellers the amount of such overpayment to the extent it has been refunded to Buyer (or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date) or applied to reduce the amount of Taxes that Buyer (or, after the
Closing Date, any Subsidiary) would otherwise have been required to pay with respect to Taxes that Buyer has agreed to pay under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Buyer nor any Subsidiary shall have any obligation to pay Sellers
any amount relating to the subsequent use of tax credits, net operating or other tax losses, or tax deductions that were available for carryover to Tax periods (and the portion of the Straddle Period) beginning after the Closing Date. 
 (c) For the purpose of this Agreement, the liability for Taxes relating to the Purchased Assets, the Subsidiaries and the Business for the
portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing, shall be determined by assuming that the Straddle Period consisted of two taxable years or periods, one ending at the end of the Closing Date and the other starting at the beginning of the day
following the Closing Date, and items relating to the Purchased Assets, the Business and the Subsidiaries for the Straddle Period were allocated between such two taxable years or periods as if the relevant books were closed at the close of business
on the Closing Date, provided, however, that Taxes imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the assets of the Subsidiaries or the Purchased Assets (or otherwise measured by the level of any item), and any exemptions, allowances or deductions that
are calculated on an annual basis, such as the 

 
deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned between such two taxable years or periods on a daily basis. 
 (d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.03(a) above and subject to the procedures set forth in this Section 11.03, Buyer
covenants with Sellers to promptly pay and indemnify and hold harmless Sellers from and against any Taxes or liability for any Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Subsidiaries, the Purchased Assets or the Business for any taxable period
beginning after the Closing Date and, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date (including, without limitation, any obligation to contribute to the payment of a Tax determined on a
consolidated, combined or unitary basis with respect to the Subsidiaries) which have been paid by Sellers after Closing. In the event that any Seller or its Affiliates makes an additional payment of any Tax for which Buyer has agreed to pay pursuant
to this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly pay such additional payment to such Seller or its Affiliate upon receipt of notice from any Seller or apply such additional payment to reduce the amount of Taxes that any Seller or its Affiliate would
otherwise have been required to pay with respect to Taxes that any Seller has agree to pay under this Agreement. Sellers shall pay to Buyer any Tax refund or Tax credit (including any tax credit carryforward) received by any Seller which relates to
the Subsidiaries, the Purchased Assets or the Business and is attributable to any taxable period that begins after the Closing Date or, with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date.

 (e) Sellers shall, at Sellers’ expense, be responsible for preparing, or causing to be prepared, all Tax Returns
required to be filed by any Subsidiary after the Closing Date with respect to the taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date. Sellers shall submit to Buyer such returns, together with Sellers’ certification that such returns are
accurate and complete within the requirements of applicable Legal Requirements, no less than twenty (20) Business Days before their respective due dates for Buyer’s review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld).
No later than four (4) Business Days before the payment of any Tax balance shown on such Tax Return is due, Sellers shall remit such amount to Buyer and Buyer shall timely file such returns and remit such Tax payments when due. Sellers shall,
at Sellers’ expense, prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns, other than those required to be filed by any Subsidiary, with respect to the Business for taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date that are
due after the Closing Date and shall furnish a copy of such Tax Returns to Buyer within thirty (30) Business Days following the filing of such Tax Return. Buyer shall file or cause to be filed when due all Tax Returns with respect to the
Business and the Subsidiaries with respect to any Straddle Period taxable years or periods ending after the Closing Date and shall submit a copy of such returns together with a statement showing the calculations used to allocate the amount of Tax on
the return between Buyer and Sellers and the amount of Tax allocable to Sellers, no later than twenty (20) Business Days before their respective due dates for Sellers’ review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld). No later than four (4) Business Days before any Tax payment with respect to such returns is due, Sellers shall remit to Buyers any unpaid amount allocable to Sellers. Buyer shall timely file such Tax Returns and timely pay any Tax
due with respect to such returns. In the absence of written consent from the other party, all Tax Returns that Sellers or Buyer are required to prepare or file, or cause to be prepared or filed, in accordance with this paragraph (e)

 
shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the prior practice in preparing and filing similar Tax Returns unless otherwise required by applicable Tax
laws. In the event of any disagreement between Sellers and Buyer as to the proper reporting of any item on any such Tax Return or calculation of Taxes for such Tax Return, Sellers and Buyer (after a good faith attempt to resolve such disagreement)
shall submit such disagreement to the Accounting Firm whose determination as to the proper reporting of such item and calculation of Taxes shall be binding on Sellers and Buyer. Neither Sellers nor Buyer shall amend any Tax Return with respect to
the Purchased Assets, the Business or the Subsidiaries filed with respect to periods ending on or before, or including, the Closing Date to take a position inconsistent with past practice in preparing and filing similar Tax Returns without the prior
written consent of the other party. 
 (f) Buyer shall, at Buyer’s expense, be responsible for preparing, or causing to
be prepared, and filing, or causing to be filed, all other Tax Returns required to be filed with respect to the Business and the Subsidiaries for taxable periods beginning after the Closing Date. 
 (g) Buyer shall give written notice to the Sellers of the initiation of any Contest relating to a Tax that is the Sellers’
responsibility under this Agreement within twenty (20) days from the date of receipt by Buyer of any written notice of such Contest. Sellers shall give written notice to Buyer of the initiation of any Contest for which Buyer has responsibility
under this Agreement within twenty (20) days from the date of receipt by the Sellers of any written notice of such Contest. Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, agree, in each case at no cost to the other party, to
cooperate with the other and the other’s representatives in a prompt and timely manner in connection with any Contest. Such cooperation shall include, but not be limited to, making available to the other party, during normal business hours, all
books, records, returns, documents, files, other information (including working papers and schedules), officers or employees (without substantial interruption of employment) or other relevant information necessary or useful in connection with any
Contest requiring any such books, records and files. Provided that the Sellers acknowledge in writing the liability of Sellers under this Agreement to hold the Buyer and the Subsidiaries harmless against the full amount of any adjustment which may
be made as a result of such Contest, the Sellers shall, at their election and at their expense, have the right to represent the interest of any of the Subsidiaries and/or the owner(s) of the Purchased Assets or the Business in any Contest relating
to a Tax matter arising in a period ending on or before the Closing Date, to employ counsel of their choice and to control the conduct of such Contest, but only to the extent that such Contest relates solely to a potential adjustment for which the
Sellers have acknowledged the liability of the Sellers and the issue underlying the proposed adjustment does not recur for any taxable period ending after the Closing Date. The Buyer also may participate in any such Contest and, if the Sellers do
not assume the defense of any such Contest, the Buyer may control the Contest as it may deem appropriate. With respect to a proposed Tax assessment or claim for which either Sellers (as evidenced by their written acknowledgment hereunder) and Buyer
or any Subsidiary could be liable, or which involves an issue that recurs for any period ending after the Closing Date (whether or not the subject of the Contest at such time), (i) both Buyer and the Sellers may participate in the Contest (at
their own expense), and (ii) the Contest shall be controlled by the party that would bear the burden of the greater portion of the sum of the assessment or claim and any corresponding adjustments that may reasonably be anticipated for future
taxable periods. In 

 
the case of any Contest governed by this Section 11.03(g), the controlling party shall have the authority to settle or compromise any proposed Tax claim
or assessment; provided, however, that neither Buyer nor Sellers shall enter into any compromise or agree to settle any claim or assessment pursuant to any Contest which would adversely affect the other party without the written consent of the other
party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (h) The obligations of either Buyer or Sellers to provide timely
notice in accordance with this Section 11.03 shall be waived with respect to any requirement to provide advance notice of a Tax payment if the amount of Tax for which the other party would be responsible is no more than $5,000, and with respect
to any requirement to provide notice concerning any Contest, if the additional amount of Tax that would be borne by the other party were such Contest resolved against its favor (taking into account any corresponding adjustments that may reasonably
be anticipated for future taxable periods) is reasonably expected to be no more than $5,000. 
 (i) The failure of either
Buyer or Sellers to give timely notice to the other party in accordance with this Section 11.03 shall not relieve the other party of its obligations hereunder unless (and then only to the extent) such party is thereby prejudiced. 
 11.04 Assumption of Contracts. To the extent that any Contract of Johnson Polymer for which assignment to Buyer is provided herein
is not assignable without the consent of another party or parties, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment or an attempted assignment thereof if such assignment or attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof. The Sellers and
Buyer agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts (without any requirement on the part of either party to pay any money, assume any liability or otherwise agree to any change in the terms of any such contract) to obtain the consent of such
other party to the assignment of any such Contract to Buyer in all cases in which such consent is or may be required for such assignment or to avoid a breach of such Contract. If any such consent is not obtained, then the Sellers agree to cooperate
with Buyer in any reasonable arrangement designed to provide for Buyer the benefits intended to be assigned to Buyer under the relevant contract, including enforcement, at the cost and for the account of Buyer, of any and all rights of the Sellers
(or the applicable Seller) against the other party thereto arising out of the breach or cancellation thereof by such other party or otherwise. 
 11.05. Notice of Breach. If, prior to the Closing Date, either of the Sellers or Buyer becomes aware of any breach of or inaccuracy with respect to a representation or warranty made in this Agreement by the
Sellers or Buyer, respectively, the party discovering such breach or inaccuracy shall, promptly, give written notice to the Sellers or Buyer, as applicable, describing in reasonable detail the nature of such inaccuracy or breach. 
 11.06 Insurance. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that all insurance coverage provided with respect to the Business is provided for
the benefit of the Business by JohnsonDiversey as part of a group coverage insurance program and that such insurance coverage shall not be transferred to Buyer and shall terminate with respect to the Business effective as of the Closing. 

 11.07 Cooperation on Taxes. Each party hereto shall provide to the respective
other party hereto such cooperation and information as any of them reasonably may request in filing any Tax return, mandatory Tax return or claim for refund or for the preparation of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to the
Business. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax returns and relevant records and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and
explanation of any material provided hereunder. Each party will retain all Tax returns and all material records and other documents relating to Tax matters of the Subsidiaries or any permanent establishment or branch or operational office of any
Subsidiary, during the Access Period. Thereafter, the party holding such Tax returns or other documents may dispose of them, provided that such party shall notify the other party prior to disposing of them and, upon request made within sixty
(60) days after receipt of such notice, shall deliver such Tax returns and other documents to the other party at the other party’s expense. 
 12. Covenants and Agreements of Buyer. 
 12.01 Litigation Assistance. Following
the Closing, from time to time upon either Seller’s written request, Buyer shall cooperate with and assist the Sellers (to the extent not subject to the Sellers’ indemnity rights hereunder, at the Sellers’ expense) in defending any
claim or lawsuit relating to the Sellers’ operation of the Business or ownership of the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing. Except to the extent the Sellers have indemnity rights under Section 14 below, the Sellers shall reimburse Buyer
for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses actually paid by Buyer to third parties in connection with providing the cooperation and assistance requested under this Section 12.01. 
 12.02 Access to Books and Records. Buyer shall maintain in a reasonably accessible place, during the Access Period, any Files and
Records delivered hereunder and shall provide copies of such Files and Records to the Sellers or their representative(s) upon written request. Buyer shall notify the Sellers prior to disposing of any such Files and Records and, upon request made
within 60 days after receipt of such notice, shall deliver such Files and Records to the Sellers at the Sellers’ expense. 
 12.03 Arrangements Regarding U.S. Employees. 
 (a) Johnson Polymer Employees. 
 (i) Offer of Employment to Johnson Polymer Employees. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall make a Qualifying Offer to employ a
substantial majority of the employees of Johnson Polymer listed on item 1 of Section 9.14(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, as modified to reflect employment changes made in the ordinary course of business between the date of the signing of
this Agreement and the Closing Date, (all of such employees, regardless of whether an offer of employment is made, being referred to herein as the “Johnson Polymer Employees”). For purposes of this Agreement, an offer of employment
with Buyer or one of its Affiliates shall be a “Qualifying Offer” if it provides for (1) job responsibilities that are comparable to those in effect for such employee immediately prior to the effective date of the offer,
(2) compensation, bonus opportunity and employee benefits that are, in the aggregate, comparable to those in effect for such employee immediately prior to the effective date of such 

 
offer, (3) a principal workplace that is not more than fifty (50) miles distant from such employee’s principal workplace immediately prior to
the effective date of the offer, and (4) is otherwise subject to the standard terms, conditions and policies of employment of Buyer or its Affiliate. Sellers and Buyer stipulate that, for purposes of this Agreement, the employee benefit plans,
programs and policies generally available to employees of Buyer as of the date hereof are comparable, in the aggregate, to those in effect on such date for Johnson Polymer Employees under the employee benefit plans, programs and policies of the
Sellers and their Affiliates. 
 Any Johnson Polymer Employee who is absent from work as of the Closing Date due to injury,
disability or approved leave of absence, will be eligible to receive a Qualifying Offer of employment from Buyer hereunder (without discrimination due to the Johnson Polymer Employee’s being absent from work) only if, in the case of a Johnson
Polymer Employee on injury or disability leave, the Johnson Polymer Employee obtains a medical release or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Buyer which evidences the Johnson Polymer Employee’s ability to perform the essential
functions of his regular work, with or without reasonable accommodation as of such employee’s expected date of returning to active employment, and the Johnson Polymer Employee returns to active employment no later than [a] if on a short-term
disability or on an approved leave of absence under the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, as amended (“FMLA”), the last day on which the Johnson Polymer Employee may receive benefits under the provisions of the Johnson Polymer
short-term disability plan or may be on approved leave under the FMLA, or [b] for all other approved leaves of absence including workers’ compensation leave, within six (6) months of the Closing Date. Johnson Polymer Employees who accept
offers of employment (including Qualifying Offers of employment) and commence employment with Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer (hereinafter referred to as “Transferred Johnson Polymer Employees”) shall become employees of Buyer or an
Affiliate of Buyer as of the Closing Date or, for Johnson Polymer Employees who are absent from work on the Closing Date due to injury or disability or approved leave of absence, as of the date of their return to active employment as described in
the previous sentence. Transferred Johnson Polymer Employees shall be offered participation in Buyer’s employee benefit plans and programs (including, without limitation, incentive compensation plans and programs) upon the same terms and
conditions applicable to other similarly situated non-bargaining unit represented employees of Buyer or Buyer’s Affiliates with credit for years of service in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.03(e) below. 
 (ii) Johnson Polymer Employee Accepts an Offer of Employment from Buyer. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.03(c),
neither Sellers nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Johnson Polymer Employee who accepts an offer of employment from Buyer or one of its Affiliates and becomes a Transferred Employee
hereunder, even if such offer is not a Qualifying Offer of employment. 
 (iii) Johnson Polymer Employee Declines a
Qualifying Offer of Employment from Buyer. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.03(c), neither Sellers nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Johnson Polymer Employee who receives
a Qualifying Offer from Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to the terms of Section 12.03(a)(i) above but who declines such Qualifying Offer. 

 (iv) Johnson Polymer Employee Who Does Not Receive A Qualifying Offer of Employment
from Buyer. Notwithstanding Section 13.04, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates may solicit for employment and/or offer continued employment to any Johnson Polymer Employee who does not receive an offer of employment from Buyer or one of its
Affiliates prior to the Closing Date. Except as provided in Section 12.03(c), neither Sellers nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Johnson Polymer Employee who does not receive an offer of
employment in accordance with this Section 12.03(a) above from Buyer or its Affiliates prior to the Closing Date but who as of the day immediately after the Closing accepts a position with JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates or with the
Buyer or one of its Affiliates. JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates shall provide the Severance Benefits identified on Exhibit 12.03(a) hereto to any Johnson Polymer Employee who does not receive a Qualifying Offer of employment in accordance
with Section 12.03(a)(i) above provided that such employee is not employed by JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates, or by Buyer or one of its Affiliates, on the day immediately following the Closing Date. Buyer shall reimburse Johnson Polymer or
its Affiliates, as the case may be, for the cost of any and all such Severance Benefits provided in accordance with Exhibit 12.03(a) hereto by Johnson Polymer or its Affiliates to any former Johnson Polymer Employee described in the prior
sentence. 
 Notwithstanding the terms of Section 13.04 below, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates may solicit for
employment and hire on, or after the day following, the Closing Date any Johnson Polymer Employee to whom Buyer does not extend an offer of employment prior to the Closing Date provided that [a] if JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates hires any
such Johnson Polymer Employee within six (6) months after the date of termination of employment for which Buyer reimbursed Johnson Polymer or its Affiliates for any Severance Benefits provided to such employee, then Sellers or their Affiliates
shall reimburse Buyer for one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of such Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer, and [b] if JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates hires any such Johnson Polymer Employee who received Severance
Benefits for which Buyer reimbursed Johnson Polymer or its Affiliates more than six (6) months after the date of a termination of employment for which Buyer reimbursed Johnson Polymer or its Affiliates for any Severance Benefits provided to
such employee, but less that eighteen (18) months after such termination date, then Sellers or their Affiliates shall reimburse Buyer for fifty percent (50%) of the cost of such Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer. The
parties agree to in good faith determine the timing of payment and/or reimbursement of the Severance Benefits by Sellers and their Affiliates and Buyer hereunder. 
 (v) Johnson Polymer Employee Receives Offer For a Set Term. An offer of employment from Buyer in accordance with this Section
12.03(a) shall be an “Offer For a Set Term” if it is limited, by its express terms, to a predetermined period of less than two years measured from the effective date of the offer. Except as provided in Section 12.03(c), neither
Sellers nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Johnson Polymer Employee who accepts an offer of employment from Buyer, even if such offer is an Offer for a Set Term. Neither Sellers nor Buyer
shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Johnson Polymer Employee who receives a Qualifying Offer from Buyer or its Affiliates but who declines such Qualifying Offer, even if the offer is an Offer for a Set Term. 

 Notwithstanding the terms of Section 13.04 below, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates
may solicit for employment and hire any Johnson Polymer Employee who declines an Offer for a Set Term that does not otherwise meet the requirements for a Qualifying Offer. JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates shall provide the Severance Benefits
identified on Exhibit 12.03(a) hereto to any Johnson Polymer Employee who declines an Offer for a Set Term that does not otherwise meet the requirements for a Qualifying Offer, provided that such Johnson Polymer Employee is not employed by
JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates, or by the Buyer or one of its Affiliates, on the day immediately following the Closing Date. Buyer shall reimburse Sellers or their Affiliates, as the case may be, for the cost of any and all such Severance
Benefits provided by Sellers or their Affiliates to any former Johnson Polymer Employee described in the prior sentence. 
 If JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates hires any such Johnson Polymer Employee following the day after the Closing and within six (6) months of the Closing, then Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for one hundred percent (100%) of
the cost of any Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer with respect to such Johnson Polymer Employee, and (y) if JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates hires any such Johnson Polymer Employee more than six (6) months after the
Closing but less that eighteen (18) months after the Closing, then Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for fifty percent (50%) of the cost of any Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer with respect to such Johnson Polymer Employee.
The parties agree to in good faith to determine the timing of payment and/or reimbursement of the Severance Benefits by Sellers and their Affiliates and Buyer hereunder. 
 (b) Tolling Employees. 
 (i) Offer of Employment to Tolling Employees. As of the date indicated below, Buyer may make, but shall not be obligated to make, an offer to employ the Current Waxdale Employees who continue to remain employed
in support of the Toll Manufacturing Agreement and each other person who (as permitted under the Toll Manufacturing Agreement) is employed by Johnson Polymer, JohnsonDiversey or any of their respective Affiliates after the date hereof and works in
support of the Toll Manufacturing Agreement (collectively, the “Tolling Employees”). Such offer of employment shall be made at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on which such employee’s employment with Johnson
Polymer, JohnsonDiversey or any of their Affiliates ends as a result of the termination of the Toll Manufacturing Agreement (the “Toll Manufacturing Agreement Termination Date”), or the termination of such employee’s employment
by Johnson Polymer, JohnsonDiversey or any of their Affiliates as a result of the transfer of work to Buyer (collectively, a “Tolling Employee’s Termination Date”). Sellers and Buyer stipulate that, for purposes of this
Agreement, the employee benefit plans, programs and policies generally available to employees of Buyer as of the date hereof are comparable, in the aggregate, to those in effect on such date for the Tolling Employees under the employee benefit
plans, programs and policies of the Sellers and their Affiliates. 
 Any Tolling Employee who is absent from work as of the
Tolling Employee’s Termination Date, due to injury, disability or approved leave of absence, shall be offered employment hereunder (without discrimination due to the Tolling Employee’s being absent from work) only if, in the case of a
Tolling Employee on injury or disability leave, 

 
the Tolling Employee obtains a medical release or other documentation reasonably satisfactory to Buyer which evidences such employee’s ability to
perform the essential functions of his regular work, with or without reasonable accommodation as of such employee’s expected date of return to active employment, and the Tolling Employee returns to active employment no later than [a] if on a
short-term disability or on an approved leave of absence under the FMLA, the last day on which the Tolling Employee may receive benefits under the provisions of the JohnsonDiversey short-term disability plan or may be on an approved leave pursuant
to the FMLA, or [b] for all other approved leaves of absence including workers’ compensation leave, within six (6) months of the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date. Tolling Employees who accept offers of employment and commence
employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates (hereinafter referred to as “Transferred Tolling Employees” or, together with Transferred Johnson Polymer Employees, “Transferred U.S. Employees”) shall become
employees of Buyer or its Affiliates as of the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date or, for Tolling Employees who are absent from work on the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date, due to injury or disability or approved leave of absence, as
of the date of their return to active employment as described in the previous sentence. Transferred Tolling Employees shall be offered participation in Buyer’s or its Affiliates employee benefit plans and programs (including, without
limitation, incentive compensation plans and programs) upon the same terms and conditions applicable to other similarly situated non-bargaining unit represented employees of Buyer or its Affiliates with credit for years of service in accordance with
the provisions of Section 12.03(e) below. 
 (ii) Tolling Employee Receives and Accepts an Offer of Employment With
Buyer. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.03(c), neither JohnsonDiversey nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Tolling Employee who accepts an offer of employment with Buyer or
one of its Affiliates, even if such offer is not a Qualifying Offer. 
 (iii) Tolling Employee Declines a Qualifying
Offer. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.03(c), neither JohnsonDiversey nor Buyer (nor their Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any Severance Benefits to any Tolling Employee who receives a Qualifying Offer from Buyer or its
Affiliates in accordance with this Section 12.03 but who declines such Qualifying Offer. 
 (iv) Tolling Employee
Does Not Receive A Qualifying Offer of Employment From Buyer. Notwithstanding Section 13.04, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates may solicit for employment, and/or offer continued employment to, any Tolling Employee who does not receive an
offer of employment from Buyer prior to the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date. Except as provided in Section 12.03(c) below, neither Sellers (nor their Affiliates) nor Buyer (nor its Affiliates) shall be obligated to provide any
Severance Benefits to any Tolling Employee who as of the day immediately after the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date accepts a position with JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates, or with the Buyer or one of its Affiliates. JohnsonDiversey
or its Affiliates shall provide the Severance Benefits identified on Exhibit 12.03(a) hereto to any Tolling Employee who does not receive a Qualifying Offer of employment from Buyer hereunder, provided that such employee is not employed by
JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates, or with Buyer or one of its Affiliates, on the day immediately following the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date. Buyer shall reimburse JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates, as the case may be, for the cost of
any and all such Severance Benefits provided by 

 
JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to any former Tolling Employee described in the prior sentence in accordance with Exhibit
12.03(a) hereto. 
 Notwithstanding the terms of Section 13.04 below, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates may solicit
for employment and hire any Tolling Employee who does not receive an offer of employment with Buyer for a period commencing on the Tolling Employee’s Termination Date of such employee provided that if JohnsonDiversey, or one of its Affiliates
rehires any such Tolling Employee within six (6) months of the date of a termination of employment for which Buyer reimbursed JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates for any Severance Benefits provided to such employee, then Sellers or their
Affiliates shall reimburse Buyer for one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of such Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer, and if JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates rehires any such Tolling Employee more than six
(6) months after the date of a termination of employment for which Buyer reimbursed JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates for any Severance Benefits provided to such employee, but less that eighteen (18) months after such termination date,
then Sellers or their Affiliates shall reimburse Buyer for fifty percent (50%) of the costs of such Severance Benefits which were reimbursed by Buyer. The parties agree to in good faith to determine the timing of payment and/or reimbursement of
the Severance Benefits by Sellers and their Affiliates and Buyer hereunder. 
 (c) Severance Benefits. 
 (i) Subject to the terms of Sections 12.03(a) and (b) above, for every Transferred U.S. Employee whose employment is terminated by
Buyer or its Affiliates without Cause (as defined below) on or prior to the second anniversary of the commencement of such Transferred U.S. Employee’s employment with Buyer or its Affiliates, Buyer or its Affiliates shall provide such
Transferred U.S. Employee with Severance Benefits in accordance with Exhibit 12.03(c) hereto. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Transferred Johnson Polymer Employees working at Renaissance Park in areas directly related to the performance of the services under the Toll Manufacturing Agreement, which employees are identified on
Exhibit 12.03(c)(ii) hereto, will be eligible for Severance Benefits which are at least as generous as those identified on Exhibit 12.03(c) hereto from Closing through the day after the Toll Manufacturing Agreement Termination Date.

 (iii) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary but subject to Sellers’ obligation to reimburse
Buyer in the circumstances described above in Sections 12.03(a)(iv) and (v) and 12.03(b)(iv), Buyer shall reimburse Johnson Polymer, JohnsonDiversey and their Affiliates for any Severance Benefits which are determined in good faith by Johnson
Polymer, JohnsonDiversey and their Affiliates to be payable as a result of a claim made by any Johnson Polymer Employee or any Tolling Employee, and which are paid, to any Johnson Polymer Employee or any Tolling Employee who does not receive a
Qualifying Offer from Buyer or one of its Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or who becomes a Transferred U.S. Employee. Seller shall notify Buyer immediately upon receipt of a claim for Severance
Benefits from any Johnson Polymer Employee or Tolling Employee who has received an offer of employment from Buyer under 

 
Section 12.03(a) above or 12.03(b) above. If within thirty (30) days after receiving such notification, Buyer requests Johnson Polymer,
JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates to refrain from paying such Severance Benefits, then such company shall refrain from paying such Severance Benefits and Buyer shall indemnify such company for any damages arising therefrom including Severance
Benefits, attorneys fees and costs. If Johnson Polymer, JohnsonDiversey or its Affilates, as appropriate, do not receive a request from Buyer to refrain from paying Severance Benefits within thirty (30) days after receiving such notification,
Johnson Polymer, JohnsonDiversey or its Affiliates may pay such Severance Benefits and Buyer shall reimburse the same as provided in this Section 12.03(c)(iii). 
 (iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no such Severance Benefits shall be provided if a Transferred U.S.
Employee’s employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates is terminated for “Cause” which for purposes of this section shall be defined as [a] fraud or embezzlement against the Buyer or its Affiliates, falsification of records or
similar acts; [b] gross neglect of, or a gross failure to perform, substantial job duties, [c] commission of a felony crime, or [d] demonstrated substance abuse. Buyer also shall or shall cause its Affiliates to provide Severance Benefits (in
accordance with Exhibit 12.03(a) hereto) if a Transferred U.S. Employee resigns from employment with the Buyer or its Affiliates within twenty-four (24) months after the commencement of such Transferred U.S. Employee’s employment
with Buyer or its Affiliates because a condition of such Transferred U.S. Employee’s continued employment with Buyer is a relocation of such employee’s principal work place of greater than fifty (50) miles. Except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement, Buyer shall indemnify Sellers and their Affiliates and hold them harmless from and against any claims made for Severance Benefits, termination pay or allowance or pay in lieu of notice arising out of the termination of the employment
of any Transferred U.S. Employee after the Closing Date. 
 (d) Pre-Closing Compensation. Buyer or its Affiliates shall
pay all outstanding wages and other remuneration due to Johnson Polymer Employees with respect to their services as employees of Johnson Polymer or any of its Affiliates through the close of business on the Closing Date, including the pro rata
portion of any bonus payments or other incentive compensation and all vacation pay earned prior to the Closing Date, provided that Sellers pay in advance to Buyer all such amounts prior to Buyer’s payment to the extent such amounts are not
already included in the Closing Net Asset Value Statement. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section, Sellers’ and Buyer’s respective contributions toward payment of amounts due under the Retention Bonus Arrangements described in
Section 12.03(l) below will be governed by Section 12.03(l). 
 (e) Prior Service Credits. Except as
otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, Transferred U.S. Employees shall receive credit for their prior service with Johnson Polymer or any of its Affiliates (including service with any predecessor company) for all purposes under
Buyer’s benefit plans including, without limitation, Buyer’s vacation, severance, short-term disability and life insurance plans; provided, however, that Transferred U.S. Employees shall not receive credit for prior service with
Sellers for the purpose of determining credited service for benefit accruals under the Buyer’s defined benefits plans or for the purpose of determining employer contributions or other subsidies under Buyer’s post-retirement medical plan.

 (f) Health Care Plans. Transferred U.S. Employees and their respective qualifying
dependents who are covered under Seller Health Plans as of the Closing shall be eligible to participate in Buyer’s health care plans as of the date of the commencement of such Transferred U.S. Employee’s employment with Buyer. To the
extent that any health care benefit plan in which any Transferred U.S. Employee participates after the Closing Date (i) imposes any pre-existing condition limitation, such condition shall be waived, or (ii) has a deductible or requires a
co-payment that is subject to a maximum out-of-pocket limitation, each Transferred U.S. Employee will receive credit toward any such co-payments and deductibles under such health care plan of Buyer or its Affiliates for any costs paid by the
Transferred U.S. Employee under the applicable Seller Health Plan during the portion of the relevant plan year or other period preceding the commencement of the Transferred U.S. Employee’s employment with Buyer or its Affiliates. 
 (g) Flexible Spending Accounts. Subject to a mutually agreeable transfer of account balances from Seller’s medical and
dependent care flexible spending account plans (“Seller’s Section 125 Plan”) to a flexible spending account plan of Buyer or one of its Affiliates, Buyer shall (i) cover the Transferred U.S. Employees under a medical
and dependent care flexible spending account plan sponsored by Buyer or one of its Affiliates (“Buyer’s Section 125 Plan”) as of the date that such Transferred U.S. Employees become employed by Buyer under this
Section 12.03 (except for Transferred U.S. Employees who elect COBRA continuation coverage under Seller’s Section 125 Plan), (ii) recognize the elections that each such Transferred U.S. Employee had in effect under Seller’s
Section 125 Plan for the calendar year in which such Transferred U.S. Employee becomes covered under Buyer’s Section 125 Plan, (iii) cause Buyer’s Section 125 Plan to assume the account balances associated with each
Transferred U.S. Employee’s flexible spending accounts under Seller’s Section 125 Plan, and (iv) be responsible for reimbursement of all previously unreimbursed reimbursable medical and dependent care claims incurred by
Transferred U.S. Employees in such calendar year (subject to the terms of Buyer’s Section 125 Plan). In consideration of any such assumption of the Transferred U.S. Employees’ flexible spending accounts under Buyer’s
Section 125 Plan, Johnson Polymer shall transfer to Buyer a cash amount equal to the aggregate net positive balance, if any, of all accounts assumed by Buyer’s Section 125 Plan under this Section 12.03(g), as of the date of such
assumption. To the extent that a mutually agreeable transfer of the account of any Transferred U.S. Employee is not effected, Sellers shall retain all liability and obligations relating to the rights and account of such Transferred U.S. Employee
under Seller’s Section 125 Plan. 
 (h) Defined Benefit Pension Plans. Sellers shall remain liable for all
benefits accrued by the Johnson Polymer Employees and the Tolling Employees under any Pension Plans which are intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and which constitute a defined benefit plan within the meaning of ERISA
Section 3(35) (collectively, the “Seller Defined Benefit Plans”) as of the date such individuals become Transferred U.S. Employees and commence employment with Buyer. Johnson Polymer shall fully vest (or shall cause its
Affiliates to fully vest) all Transferred U.S. Employees in their accrued benefits under the Seller Defined Benefit Plans as of the date such individuals become Transferred U.S. Employees. Service of the Transferred U.S. Employees recognized under
the Seller Defined Benefit Plans as of the date such individuals become Transferred U.S. Employees shall be 

 
credited to the Transferred U.S. Employees as eligibility and vesting service (but not as credited service) under any defined benefit pension programs
contributed to or maintained by Buyer and its Affiliates for which a Transferred U.S. Employee may be eligible. 
 (i)
Defined Contribution Plans. 
 (i) As of the date Johnson Polymer Employees or Tolling Employees become Transferred
U.S. Employees in accordance with Sections 12.03(a) and (b) above, the Transferred U.S. Employees shall cease active participation in any Seller Pension Plans which are intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and which
constitute a defined contribution plan within the meaning of ERISA Section 3(34) (the “Seller Defined Contribution Plans”) and Buyer will take, or cause to be taken, all action as may be necessary to cause such Transferred U.S.
Employees to become participants in a defined contribution plan established or to be established by Buyer (the “Buyer Defined Contribution Plan”) as of such date, subject to any applicable age and service requirements. Service of
each Transferred U.S. Employee recognized under terms of Seller’s Defined Contribution Plan for periods prior to the Closing Date shall be credited to the Transferred U.S. Employee for all purposes (including eligibility and vesting) under the
Buyer Defined Contribution Plan. In accordance with the terms of the Seller Defined Contribution Plan, Transferred U.S. Employees will be fully vested in their accrued benefits under such plan as of the date of their separation from service with the
applicable Seller or its Affiliate. 
 (ii) Buyer and Johnson Polymer may agree to allow Transferred U.S. Employees who are
participants in a Seller Defined Contribution Plan to elect direct rollover distributions from such Seller Defined Contribution Plan to a Buyer Defined Contribution Plan, which directed rollover may include any loan notes outstanding as of the time
of such distribution from such Seller Defined Contribution Plan in accordance with Section 402 of the Code. In order to rollover an outstanding loan note, a Transferred U.S. Employee may be required to execute [a] an acknowledgement that the
Buyer Defined Contribution Plan will be substituted for the applicable Seller Defined Contribution Plan as the obligee of the loan note, [b] a payroll authorization form and [c] any other forms deemed necessary by the plan administrator for the
Buyer Defined Contribution Plan. All directed rollovers between the Seller Defined Contribution Plan and any Buyer Defined Contribution Plan will be in the form of cash and/or loan notes, as described herein. No other assets shall be transferred
from the Seller Defined Contribution Plan to the Buyer Defined Contribution Plan other than as specified herein. 
 (j)
Incentive Compensation. With respect to the calendar year in which a Johnson Polymer Employee or Tolling Employee becomes a Transferred U.S. Employee, Sellers shall be responsible for and shall pay, or cause to be paid, to each Transferred
U.S. Employee who is eligible for an award under Seller’s incentive compensation plans, a cash incentive compensation award equal to the pro rata portion of the incentive compensation award that such Employee would have received under
Seller’s incentive compensation plan for the portion of such calendar year prior to the date the Johnson Polymer Employee or Tolling Employee becomes a Transferred U.S. Employee. 
 (k) Unemployment Compensation Matters. Buyer shall not request successor status with respect to Johnson Polymer’s
Unemployment Compensation Reserve 

 
Account Balance in any State in the U.S. without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In accordance with
Section 11.07 above, Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in complying with all applicable federal, state and local employer Tax and reporting requirements, including those set forth in Revenue Procedure 2004-53, 2004-34 I.R.B. 320, as they
pertain to the U.S. Employees and the Non-U.S. Employees. Buyer and Sellers agree to cooperate in formulating and implementing such mutually acceptable, legally permissible employment Tax procedures that are expected to reduce the amount of Taxes
payable by either party or affected employees, provided they do not materially increase the Taxes payable by either party or the employee; provided further however that to the extent Sellers incur third party costs in connection with formulating and
implementing permissible employment Tax procedures that are intended or expected to reduce the amount of Taxes payable by a party or an employee, then Buyer shall pay for or reimburse the Sellers for such additional costs. 
 (l) Retention Bonuses. Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the second hand, acknowledge that certain Johnson Polymer Employees
will or have been offered retention bonuses pursuant to the terms of agreements or plans of Sellers (the “Retention Bonus Arrangements”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Retention Bonus Arrangements, certain eligible
Johnson Polymer Employees may earn a bonus if they remain employed with Seller, a Subsidiary, Buyer or one of Buyer’s Affiliates, as the case may be, at Closing or after a certain period after Closing. Exhibit 12.03(l) attached hereto
lists each individual Johnson Polymer Employee or Non-U.S. Employee covered by such Retention Bonus Arrangements, together with the amount potentially due, and the terms and conditions of payment relating to each such covered employee. Sellers on
the one hand and Buyer on the second hand agree to each pay one-half of the aggregate cost of the bonuses earned under the Retention Bonus Arrangements. To the extent Sellers or Buyer pay greater than one-half of the amount of any earned bonus under
the Retention Bonus Arrangements, the party paying less than one-half of such amount shall reimburse the other party for the portion of such amount exceeding one-half of such cost within twenty (20) days of such overpayment. 
 12.04 Arrangements Regarding Non-U.S. Employees. 
 (a) Continued Employment of Non U.S. Employees. Seller and Buyer accept and agree that wherever legally permissible or required,
Non-U.S. Employees shall become employees of Buyer or its Affiliates (or shall remain employees of the applicable Affiliate of Seller) by operation of applicable laws or regulations (“Transfer Provisions”) or pursuant to the terms
of this Section 12.04 and of any necessary Transfer Agreement relating to that jurisdiction. Where such transfer is not possible in the manner described in the preceding sentence, Buyer or its applicable Affiliate shall offer the Non-U.S.
Employees employment in accordance with the procedures required by applicable law to effectuate their employment with Buyer or its Affiliates commencing on the Closing, provided that any such offer of employment shall provide for wages and
salaries that are no less than the wages and salaries paid to such Non-U.S. Employees by Seller or its Affiliates immediately prior to Closing and employee benefit plans and fringe benefits that are reasonably comparable in the aggregate to the
employee benefit plans and fringe benefits provided by Seller and its Affiliates immediately prior to Closing. If Transfer Provisions apply to any Non-U.S. Employee, the contract of employment of 

 
each Non-U.S. Employee shall have effect at the Closing as if originally made between the Non-U.S. Employee and Buyer or its applicable Affiliate.

 (b) The parties agree that the transfer of Equity Interests in the Subsidiaries as a result of the transactions
contemplated hereunder shall not constitute a severance of the employment for any of the employees of the Subsidiaries and that Buyer will cause each of the Subsidiaries to continue the employment of its employees from and after the Closing.

 (c) Employees who become employed by Buyer or its Affiliates pursuant to this Section 12.04 or who remain employees of
the applicable Subsidiary after the Closing shall be referred to as “Transferred Non-U.S. Employees.” 
 (d)
For a period of twelve (12) months after the Closing, Buyer shall ensure that the Subsidiaries maintain with respect to the Subsidiary Employees terms and conditions of employment which, in the aggregate for each Subsidiary Employee, comparable
in the aggregate to the terms and conditions of employment (including all compensation and benefits) provided to them immediately prior to the Closing. For every Transferred Non-U.S. Employee whose employment is terminated without cause on or prior
to the anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer shall ensure that such Transferred Non-US Employee receives Severance Benefits which are at least as generous as those provided under the applicable Seller company severance program as of the date
hereof. 
 12.05 Pension Indemnity. 
 (a) If and to the extent that the Pension Liabilities transferred to or assumed by Buyer and its Affiliates as result of the transactions
contemplated hereunder, exceed the sum of any cash, the fair market value of the other external pension assets, the policy reserves of insurance contracts used for financing Pension Arrangements, transferred to or assumed by Buyer and the book
provisions recognized in the Closing Net Asset Value Statement, as determined as of the Closing Date that are assumed by the Buyer or transferred to pension arrangements of Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated hereunder (hereinafter
referred to as the “Transferred Amounts”), Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer for such excess amount (such excess hereinafter referred to as “Buyer Pension Indemnification Amount”). Sellers agree to pay Buyer in cash
the Buyer Pension Indemnification Amount as soon as practicable but not later than 30 days after the date of the actuarial determination which fixes the Pension Liabilities. If the Transferred Amounts exceed the Pension Liabilities, Buyer agrees to
indemnify Sellers for such excess amount (such excess amount hereinafter referred to as “Seller Pension Indemnification Amount”). Buyer agrees to pay Sellers in cash the Seller Pension Indemnification Amount as soon as practicable
but not later than 30 days after the date of the actuarial determination which fixes the Pension Liabilities. Interest from the Closing Date to the date of payment, at the Applicable Rate compounded annually, shall be paid along with the Buyer
Pension Indemnification Amount or Seller Pension Indemnification Amount, as applicable. Currency rates are applicable as of the Closing Date. Sellers and Buyer jointly shall provide Sellers’ and Buyer’s actuaries with all relevant plans
and employee census information needed to calculate the Pension Liabilities within forty-five (45) days after Closing. The Pension Liabilities shall be determined by mutual agreement between Sellers and Buyer within one 

 
hundred eighty (180) days after their actuaries’ receipt of said information. If Sellers and Buyer cannot agree on the amount of the Pension
Liabilities within said one hundred eighty (180) day period, the Sellers and Buyer shall appoint within five (5) days a mutually acceptable actuary who shall review their calculations and within forty-five (45) days after appointment,
render a final and binding decision on the amount of the Pension Liabilities and who shall, in making such decision, be limited on a plan by plan basis to either the position of Sellers or Buyer. The cost of the actuary shall be borne jointly by
Sellers and Buyer. In connection with the procedures referred to herein, Sellers and Buyer shall provide each other and the actuaries referred to herein access to the relevant business records and other relevant documents, and shall permit the other
party to consult with its employees and the employees of its Affiliates. 
 (b) The indemnifications provided for in this
Section 12.05 above are separate and apart from any other indemnification provision of this Agreement. Any payment made by Sellers or by Buyer pursuant to this Section 12.05 shall be treated as an adjustment of the purchase price.

 (c) In the event any of the Subsidiaries participates in a group pension arrangement, if a transfer of Pension Liabilities
shall be made from a group pension arrangement to a pension arrangement of the Buyer, Sellers and Buyer agree to use their best endeavors to procure that any necessary approval of the appropriate regulatory authority and the trust fund and the
administrator of the plan and the insurance company of the group pension arrangement and the (former) employee and their relatives (when applicable and necessary under applicable laws of the country of residence of the employees or former employees
or their relatives or insurance company or trust fund or administrator of the pension plan) is obtained as soon as reasonably practicable after the expiry of the Sellers’ participation period in the group pension arrangement. If the Buyer
becomes responsible for meeting any Pension Liabilities accrued prior to Closing under a group pension arrangement following transfer of such liabilities, Sellers shall use their best endeavors to ensure that assets held in trust funds or insurance
contracts in respect of such liabilities are transferred to suitable pension arrangements of the Buyer. Sellers will endeavor to ensure that such asset transfers shall be equivalent to such amount required under locally applicable transfer law and
regulations as determined at the expiry date of Sellers’ participation period (the “Group Pension Transfer Amount”) to the extent that such requirements exist under locally applicable transfer law and regulations. Buyer will
endeavor that the pension arrangements to which a transfer of Pension Liabilities and corresponding plan assets have to be made under this Section 12.05 will comply with all relevant laws and regulations, such that the transfer of Pension
Liabilities and corresponding plan assets can be made by the trust fund or insurance company without violating any law or regulation. Interest on the Group Pension Transfer Amount from the expiry date of the Sellers’ participation period to the
date of transfer at the Applicable Rate compounded annually shall be transferred along with the Group Pension Transfer Amount. 
 (d) In the event that, during the period of temporary continued participation of transferred employees in a group pension arrangement of Seller after the Closing Date, a contribution or premium is paid in respect of Pension Liabilities that
is subsequently assumed by the Buyer, and in the event that the Group Pension Transfer Amount is only based on accrued pensions up to the Closing Date and not on accrued pensions, including pensions 

 
accrued during the period of temporary participation, then Sellers shall use their best endeavors to ensure that the amount of these premiums or
contributions, including appropriate interest, is transferred to the Buyer’s pension arrangements, less reasonable deduction for administrative costs and premiums for risks coverage during that transitional period to the extent these are not
included in the contribution or premium paid, as determined by mutual agreement of Sellers and Buyer and based on the regular actuarial and operational rules of the respective trust fund or insurance company. In the event any such transfer for
post-Closing contributions or premiums, or interest thereon, less reasonable deduction for administrative costs and premiums for risks coverage during the transitional period to the extent these are not included in the contribution or premium paid,
should be made on the basis of the foregoing sentence under this Section 12.05(d) but cannot be made for any reason, Sellers shall make a direct cash payment to Buyer to reimburse Buyer for any such amounts. Such payment will be within thirty
(30) days after Buyer’s notification to Sellers. 
 (e) In transferring Pension Liabilities from any group pension
arrangement to the pension arrangement of Buyer, Sellers and Buyer shall comply with all applicable legal requirements. 
 (f)
If under local requirements the consent of an (former) employee and his relatives is required to a transfer of Pension Liabilities, such consent shall be sought by Sellers and Buyer. 
 (g) Sellers guarantee that the Pension Arrangement which has been newly established in the Netherlands for the employees and former
employees of Johnson Polymer B.V. (the “New Dutch Plan”) has a design as described in the information made available in the data room and the subsequent Q & A-process (the “Dutch Pension Information”) and that
the New Dutch Plan is in accordance with all legal regular requirements. 
 Sellers guarantee in respect of Pension
Liabilities of the pensioners and the vested terminated employees’ of Johnson Polymer B.V. in the Netherlands, that (i) an insurance policy is in place on the Closing Date which will provide sufficient assets to cover all its Pension
Liabilities to the extent transferred to or assumed by Sellers; Seller will purchase annuities at the current pension level, whereby future indexation of pensions will be paid, only if and insofar excess investment return on the assets will allow,
or (ii) Sellers will pay to Buyer sufficient assets for legally settling the Pension Liabilities by way of purchasing annuities at the current pension level, whereby future indexation of pensions will be paid, only if and insofar excess
investment return of assets will allow, to the extent transferred to or assumed by Sellers, via an insurance premium to a respectable insurance company, which is jointly selected by Sellers and Buyer or (iii) Sellers have established a pension
fund for the New Dutch Plan with sufficient assets to pay the insurance premium for legally settling the Pension Liabilities by way of purchasing annuities at the current pension level, whereby future indexation of pensions will be paid only if and
insofar excess investment return of assets will allow, to the extent that these are not transferred to or assumed by Sellers, and that the respective transfer of liabilities and assets of such fund to an insurance company will be carried out in
complete accordance with all regulatory and supervisory requirements. For all pensioners and the vested terminated employees’ of Johnson Polymer B.V. in the Netherlands, who do not consent to the transfer of 

 
their pension entitlement to New Dutch Plan, Sellers will continue to be responsible for the Pension Liabilities. 
 (h) Sellers shall use their best endeavours to induce all employees in Taiwan to consent to change their retirement benefits promise from
defined benefit to defined contribution. In the event the employees in Taiwan do not accept such change, Sellers and Buyer agree that the book provision representing the accrued benefit on the basis of salary and years of service up to the Closing
Date shall be sufficient to cover the Taiwanese employees’ Pension Liabilities. 
 (i) Sellers and Buyer agree that the
book provision representing the accrued benefits on the basis of salary and years of service up to the Closing Date shall be sufficient to cover the Korea employees’ Pension Liabilities. 
 (j) Seller and Buyer agree that the assumptions for determining the Pension Liabilities in France and Germany shall be those used by
JohnsonDiversey for calculating the pension obligations for GAAP purposes as of December 31, 2005. These assumptions are listed in the attached Exhibit 12.05. 
 (k) Seller and Buyer agree that the assumptions for determining the Pension Liabilities in Japan shall be those used by JohnsonDiversey
for calculating the pension obligations for GAAP purposes as of December 31, 2005. However, the salary increase rate shall be modified so that the salary increase rate shall be 2.5 % p.a. The assumptions are listed in the attached Exhibit
12.05. 
 (l) Sellers and Buyer agree that the assumptions for determining the Pension Liabilities in South Africa shall be
those listed in the attached Exhibit 12.05. 
 (m) Sellers and Buyer agree that the assumptions for determining the Pension
Liabilities in the Netherlands shall be those used by JohnsonDiversey for calculating the pension obligations for GAAP purposes as of December 31, 2005, unless and to the extent as otherwise determined in this Section 12.05. These
assumptions are listed in the attached Exhibit 12.05. The Pension Liabilities shall be determined incorporating the provisions of the New Dutch Plan for active employees. 
 (n) In the event that the consent for any transfer of Pension Liabilities and corresponding assets is required from any party and such
consent is withheld, to that extent no transfer of the Pension Liabilities and corresponding plan assets will take place and no payment of Seller Pension Indemnification Amount or the Buyer Pension Indemnification Amount will take place. 

12.06 Other Employment Matters. 
 (a) Stock Incentive Programs. Sellers shall be responsible for and incur any and all costs of stock option or stock incentive compensation for any Johnson Polymer Employees or Non-U.S. Employees who participate
in any stock option or stock incentive 

 
program of Sellers or their Affiliates. To the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, Sellers shall be liable for any payments, withholding
obligations and reporting obligations that arise on or after the Closing Date with respect to any Johnson Polymer Employee or Non-U.S. Employee under any applicable stock option or stock incentive plan. 
 (b) Key Employees. Sellers will use their best efforts to ensure that, except as otherwise directed by Buyer, all Johnson Polymer
Employees and Non-U.S. Employees will accept employment with Buyer. 
 (c) Third-party Beneficiaries. No provision of
Sections 12.03 and 12.04 shall create any third-party beneficiaries and no current or former employees, including, but not limited to, Transferred U.S. Employees and Transferred Non-U.S. Employees, shall have any rights under Sections 12.03 and
12.04 of this Agreement with respect to employment or continued employment with the Sellers or the Buyer, or any benefits under Sections 12.03 and 12.04 of this Agreement. 
 12.07 Other Actions. Subject to the terms and conditions herein provided, Buyer agrees to (a) use commercially reasonable
efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done as promptly as practicable, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including obtaining any governmental or other consents, transfers, orders, qualifications, waivers, authorizations, exemptions and approvals, providing all notices and making all registrations, filings and applications necessary or
desirable for the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, including under the HSR Act or similar foreign filings; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill or obtain the fulfillment of the conditions to the Closing,
including the execution and delivery of all agreements or other documents contemplated hereunder to be so executed and delivered by Buyer. 
 12.08 Limitation on Certain Activities with Respect to Subsidiaries. 
 (a) Buyer shall
not make an election under Section 338 of the Code with respect to any of the Subsidiaries; and 
 (b) until after the
Tax year in which the Closing occurs (i) Buyer shall not have any of the Subsidiaries make a sale of assets outside the ordinary course of business, and (ii) Buyer shall ensure that none of the Subsidiaries distributes a dividend out of
earnings and profits, as those terms are defined under section 316 of the Code. 
 The limitations in Section 12.08(b) above are not to be construed as
prohibiting Buyer from acting to effect the merger of any of the Subsidiaries at any time after the Closing Date. 
 12.09
Delivery of Certain Payments. Buyer shall promptly deliver to the Sellers any cash, checks or other instruments of payment that may be received by Buyer after the Closing which relates to the Business and constitutes an Excluded Asset.

 (a) From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, in each case, consistent with past practices, Johnson Polymer and the Subsidiaries shall use reasonable commercial efforts to retain those employees actively

Ordinary Course of Business with respect to the Purchased Assets, (ii) enter into, adopt or amend any employee benefit plan covering employees of the Business, except as may be required by applicable law and except for the adoption or amendment

extent of the information explicitly set forth in such supplement or amendment and Buyer shall not be entitled to seek indemnification with respect to losses, damages, costs or expenses relating to the subject matter of any such disclosed

the Sellers and the Subsidiaries, to such other premises, properties, books, records, contracts and documents which pertain to the Business and are agreed to by Buyer and the Sellers. Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Buyer
and Buyer’s representatives shall not contact or otherwise communicate with any customer and/or supplier of the Business, or any Tax authority with respect to either Seller or any Subsidiary, without the prior written consent of the Sellers,

in or carry on, directly or indirectly, any business which competes with the Business as conducted on the Closing Date anywhere throughout the world; or (ii) participate in the financing, operation, management or control of, or own any equity

 Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 13.04(a) or
(b) above: 
 (c) the restrictions contained herein shall not apply to the activities of the Sellers (or either one of
them) and/or any of their Affiliates under the Toll Manufacturing Agreement, the Joint Development Agreement, the Supply Agreement, or any other agreements or arrangements entered into between Buyer and the Sellers (or either one of them), any of

 If the
final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the covenant contained in this Section 13.04 is unenforceable because it is overbroad or unreasonable, whether as to geography, duration, scope of activities, or otherwise,
such covenant shall be modified to permit enforcement to the maximum extent permissible under applicable Legal Requirements. 
 13.05 Confidentiality. For a period of five years from and after the Closing Date, the Sellers shall maintain, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to maintain, Confidential Information in strict confidence and secrecy and
shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, use, publish, communicate, divulge or disclose to any person or business entity or use for any purpose any Confidential Information or assist any third parties in doing so, except on behalf of and for

 13.06 Delivery of Certain Payments. The Sellers shall promptly deliver to Buyer any cash, checks or other instruments of payment that may be received by the Sellers (or either one of them) after the Closing

 13.08 No Recourse. Sellers undertake (in the event that a claim is made against them by the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to
the provisions of Section 14 below) not to make a claim against any Transferred Employee related to the subject of Sellers’ indemnification obligations to the Buyer Indemnified Parties and on whom the Sellers may have relied in negotiating
this Agreement, provided that such Transferred Employee’s conduct does not constitute fraud or willful misconduct, concealment or misrepresentation. 
 13.09 Patent Opposition. Within five (5) business days following the Closing Date, Johnson Polymer shall withdraw the patent opposition filed by Johnson Polymer in connection with the grant of EP 0,932,652
issued to BASF AG (Case No. CM 161 EP) and described in Section 9.15 of the Disclosure Schedule. 
 13.10
Intellectual Property License Agreement. After the Closing, if (a) Intellectual Property used in the Business as of the Closing Date continues to be owned by JohnsonDiversey, a Seller (or both of them), and/or any Affiliate of a Seller,
(b) such Intellectual Property does not constitute an Excluded Asset, and (c) no license or similar written agreement is in place after the Closing Date between Buyer, on the one hand, and the Sellers (or either one of them), any Affiliate
of a Seller, and/or Johnson Polymer, as applicable, on the other hand, with respect to such Intellectual Property (except for any such license agreement in place as of the Closing which terminates after the Closing in accordance with its terms),
then the Sellers shall, at their option, either: 
 (a) provide to (or cause to be provided to) Buyer with effect as of the
Closing Date (but not limited to a level or quantity of sales) a license to such Intellectual Property on terms similar to the terms on which Intellectual Property is to be licensed by Johnson Polymer to Buyer after the Closing under the
Intellectual Property License Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 7.05(l); provided, however, any license to Intellectual Property owned by JohnsonDiversey or one of its Affiliates (other than a Seller or a Subsidiary) granted in accordance
with this Section 13.10 shall be limited to use in the Business; or 
 (b) indemnify Buyer for Buyer’s Damages
resulting from the inability of Buyer to use such Intellectual Property on substantially the same terms as such Intellectual Property was used in the Business prior to the Closing (but not limited to a level or quantity of sales). 

 14. Indemnification. 
 14.01 Indemnification by the Sellers. Notwithstanding the Closing, but subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, the
Sellers agree to indemnify, defend and hold Buyer and its directors, officers, employees and shareholders (collectively, “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against any damages, liabilities, losses, costs or deficiencies
(including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incident to proceedings or investigations, or the defense or settlement of any claim, but not including punitive damages) (collectively,
“Buyer’s Damages”) arising out of, resulting from or relating to any of the following: (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in Section 9 of this Agreement;
(b) any failure of the Sellers to duly perform or observe any term, provision, covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement; (c) any Environmental Damages which arise out of the handling, use,
storage, disposal, treatment or Release of any Hazardous Substance into the Environment at the Real Property on or prior to the Closing Date; and (d) any Retained Liabilities. 
 14.02 Environmental Indemnification. This paragraph and Section 14.01(c) and Section 14.01(a) with respect to a breach of
the representations and warranties set forth in Section 9.10 set forth the sole and exclusive remedy of Buyer with respect to Environmental Claims, Environmental Conditions and/or Environmental Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, the obligation of Sellers with respect to Environmental Damages and breaches of the representations and warranties contained in Section 9.10 above and the conduct of the Buyer, its Affiliates and the Subsidiaries after
Closing shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 14.03 below and to the following: 
 (a) Neither Buyer
nor its consultants, contractors, agents or representatives shall perform or undertake after the Closing Date any investigation or sampling of any Hazardous Substance or contaminants in, on, at, upon or under any surface soil, subsurface soil,
surface water, groundwater, building material or any other media of any form or type at, in, on, under or from the Real Property (collectively “Media”) except as required by Legal Requirements for a Release of Hazardous Substances
by Buyer, its agents or invitees after the Closing. The intent of the foregoing provision is to prevent Buyer and its consultants, contractors, agents or other representatives from performing or undertaking any investigation or sampling of any Media
for any purpose including the purpose of advancing, asserting or proving an indemnification claim against the Sellers. This paragraph shall not apply to (i) geotechnical testing performed by or on behalf of Buyer to determine load-bearing
capabilities of soils pursuant to new construction or expansion of existing facilities at the Real Property; (ii) noninvasive investigations undertaken by Buyer or its Affiliates to satisfy the ASTM Standard E1527-97 for Phase I site
assessments or to qualify for protection under such “All Appropriate Inquiry” regulation, 40 C.F.R. 312, so long as in attempting to satisfy such ASTM standard and/or to qualify for protection under such “All Appropriate Inquiry”
regulation, Buyer or its Affiliates (including their agents) do not take any samples of Media; or (iii) any Remediation Action to the extent remedial standards pursuant to then-applicable Environmental Laws would not permit the Remediation
Action in such circumstances to be limited to the removal and disposal of surface and subsurface soil from or paving over the affected area. 

 (b) If, after the Closing Date, Buyer or the Subsidiaries undertake environmental
remediation activities or other environmental testing, sampling or monitoring activities in connection with or relating to Environmental Damages which are not (i) contemplated by the provisions of Section 14.02(a) above, (ii) required
by a Governmental Authority or (iii) in response to a third party claim asserting liability for the Release of Hazardous Substances at the Real Property, then Sellers shall not be obligated to indemnify Buyer in respect of such Environmental
Damages. 
 (c) With respect to the Sellers’ indemnification obligations for Environmental Damages under
Section 14.01(a), (c) and (d) above, as a result of a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 9.10 above or otherwise: 
 (i) Buyer shall provide the Sellers or their representatives access to the applicable parcel of Real Property so that the Sellers may
conduct their own investigation, testing or corrective action with respect to the matter; 
 (ii) Buyer shall immediately
provide the Sellers with the results, including analytical data, of any investigation or testing conducted by Buyer or, if available to Buyer, any third party; 
 (iii) except as may otherwise be required by Legal Requirements or upon written advice of legal counsel regarding a Legal Requirement of
Buyer to do so, Buyer shall not contact any Governmental Authority without prior notice to, and consultation with, the Sellers; 
 (iv) the Sellers shall have the right to participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Governmental Authority concerning such matter; 
 (v) if Remediation Action is required or could be taken to reduce Environmental Damages in any such matter, the Sellers shall have the right to develop and implement a plan of Remediation Action, such plan to be
subject to Buyer’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld), and, if requested by the Sellers, Buyer shall cooperate with the Sellers in the development and implementation of such Remediation Action on a cost effective basis; any such plan of
action shall, to the extent permitted under Environmental Laws, be based on the industrial use of the property and may rely on and utilize institutional controls (such as web-based GIS registrations, deed notices or restrictions) and shall contain
reasonable steps so as to minimize disruption of or adverse effect on the ongoing operations of the Business; and, in connection therewith: 
 [a] Buyer shall cooperate fully and in good faith with the Sellers in performing such tasks as the Sellers and their technical professionals and representatives may reasonably request as being necessary or advisable
to complete any Remediation Action being undertaken by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement; and Buyer shall promptly execute any and all documentation necessary or requested to facilitate “case closure,” “no further action” or
a similar acknowledgement by any Governmental Authority having 

 
jurisdiction over the matter and, furthermore, without limiting the scope of the foregoing, Buyer shall cause its employees to cooperate fully with the
Sellers and to afford the Sellers, their agents, employees and technical professionals access to relevant records relating to the matters which may be the Sellers’ responsibility under this Agreement; 
 [b] the Sellers shall be responsible for completing such Remediation Action undertaken by them, if any, only to the extent required under
applicable Environmental Laws in effect as of the Closing Date; and Buyer understands and acknowledges that such Remediation Action may not result in the complete removal of any and all contaminants or Hazardous Substances on, in, at, upon, under or
from the Real Property, and Buyer understands and acknowledges that contaminants or Hazardous Substances may remain on, in, at, upon, under or from the Real Property after the completion of such Remediation Action; and 
 [c] Buyer shall indemnify the Sellers for all environmental losses, costs, damages or expenses resulting from or arising out of events or
circumstances occurring at, in, on, upon or from the Real Property after the Closing Date; provided, however, no claim for indemnification may be made by Sellers or their officers, directors, Affiliates and employees against Buyer in connection with
such losses, costs, damages or expenses until the amount of such losses, costs, damages or expenses exceeds Six Million One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($6,125,000) and then only to the extent of the amount over $6,125,000; provided
further, however, Buyer’s aggregate liability under this Section 14.02(c)(v)[c] shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer’s obligation to
indemnify the Sellers for lost profits or incidental, consequential or exemplary damages shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price for each claim or incident or series of related claims or incidents. 
 (d) All obligations of the Sellers under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Environmental Damages, if any, shall be terminated
and concluded, upon issuance of a “case closure letter,” “no further action” or similar acknowledgement from a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such matter. 
 (e) For purposes of this Section 14.02, all covenants, restrictions and limitations on the Buyer shall include the Buyer, its
Affiliates and the Subsidiaries. 
 14.03 Limitations on the Sellers’ Indemnification Obligations. 
 (a) The representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in (i) Sections 9.01 above, (ii) the first sentences of
Sections 9.02(a) and 9.02(b) above, and (iii) Section 9.07(a) above shall survive the Closing indefinitely, the representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in Section 9.10 above shall survive the Closing for a period
of five (5) years, and the representations and warranties of the Sellers set forth in Section 9.12 above and the obligations set forth in Section 11.03 shall survive the Closing for the applicable statutes of limitations, including
any periods of waiver or extension thereof, plus six (6) months. All other representations and warranties of the Sellers in this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a 

 
period of eighteen (18) months. The Sellers’ obligation to indemnify Buyer with respect to a claim for a breach of a representation and warranty
shall extend (with respect to such claim) beyond the applicable survival period only if Buyer asserts such claim by notice in writing to the Sellers prior to the expiration of such survival period. Sellers’ obligation to indemnify Buyer with
respect to claims arising under or provided by Sections 14.01(c) and 14.02 shall survive the Closing for a period of five (5) years. Unless a longer survival period is otherwise expressly provided hereunder, Sellers’ obligation to
indemnify Buyer with respect to claims arising under or provided by Section 14.01(d) of this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of eighteen (18) months. 
 (b) No claim for indemnification may be made hereunder by Buyer if Buyer’s Damages in connection with such claim do not exceed, in
the aggregate, One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). Subject to the provisions of Section 14.03(c), no indemnification shall be payable by the Sellers hereunder unless and until Buyer’s Damages exceed Six Million One Hundred Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars ($6,125,000) (the “Basket”). At such time that the aggregate amount of Buyer’s Damages exceeds the Basket, the Sellers shall be liable to the Buyer Indemnified Parties only for such amount of Buyer’s
Damages which exceed the Basket; provided, however, that in no event shall the Sellers’ aggregate liability with respect to indemnification under this Section 14 exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding the
foregoing but subject to Section 14.03(i) below, the limitations set forth in this Section 14.03(b) shall not apply to claims based upon a breach of Section 9.01, the first sentences of Sections 9.02(a) and 9.02(b),
Section 9.07(a), or Section 9.12 above, breaches of covenants of the Sellers under this Agreement or claims for indemnification under Section 11.03 above or Section 12.05 above; provided, however, that any amounts paid to Buyer
pursuant to this Section 14 in connection with breaches of Section 9.01, the first sentences of Sections 9.02(a) and 9.02(b), Section 9.07(a), and Section 9.12 above, breaches of covenants of the Sellers under this Agreement or
claims under Section 11.03 above or Section 12.05 above shall not be counted toward the Basket or the limitation on the aggregate liability of Sellers hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Sellers’
obligation to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties for lost profits or incidental, consequential or exemplary damages shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the Purchase Price for each claim or incident or series of related claims or
incidents. 
 (c) Without limiting the provisions of Section 14.03(b) above, no claim for indemnification under
Section 14.01(d) above shall be made hereunder until (i) Buyer’s Damages in connection with all claims under Section 14.01(d) first exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) (the “Retained Liability
Basket”), (ii) thereafter only such Buyer’s Damages in excess of the Retained Liability Basket shall be subject to indemnification under Section 14 and (iii) such Buyer’s Damages in excess of the Retained Liability
Basket shall be subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 14.03; provided, however that any claim made by a Buyer Indemnified Party under Section 14.01(d) which is also asserted under any other provision of
Section 14.01 shall not be applied to the Retained Liability Basket. Without limiting the foregoing, all claims for indemnification under Section 14.01(d) shall also be subject to the provisions of Section 14.03(b) above. 

 (d) Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 11.03 or 14.01
above: 
 (i) with respect to a claim for indemnification hereunder related to title of Owned Real Property except to the
extent Buyer has first unsuccessfully attempted to recover upon any title insurance policy in effect with respect to such Owned Real Property; 
 (ii) in connection with any claim for indemnification hereunder with respect to which the Buyer has an enforceable claim, right of indemnification or right of set-off against any third party, unless the Buyer assigns
such claim, right of indemnification or right of set-off against such third party to the Sellers; 
 (iii) with respect to
any claim for indemnification hereunder arising from Buyer’s Damages that were incurred by or with respect to any Subsidiary, to the extent of the value of any net Tax benefit realized by the Buyer in connection with Buyer’s Damages which
form the basis of Buyer’s claim for indemnification hereunder, as determined pursuant to Section 14.03(e) below (notwithstanding the foregoing and Section 14.03(e) below, this provision is not intended to change or otherwise effect
the definition of Buyer’s Damages); 
 (iv) with respect to any claim for indemnification hereunder, unless Buyer has
given the Sellers written notice of such claim, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances pertaining thereto prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period hereunder; 
 (v) to the extent of any net insurance proceeds actually received by Buyer in connection with the facts giving rise to such
indemnification, as determined pursuant to Section 14.03(f) below; 
 (vi) to the extent the Buyer’s Damages are
reserved for, or otherwise taken into account, in the Closing Net Asset Value Statement, with respect to the Subsidiaries, were reflected in the Interim Balance Sheet; 
 (vii) to the extent the Buyer’s Damages result from any act or omission of Buyer and/or any of its Affiliates after the Closing;
and/or 
 (viii) in connection with any claim for indemnification hereunder with respect to a breach of representation or
warranty or breach of covenant if Buyer had knowledge of such breach at the time of the breach or, if the Closing occurs, at any time prior to the Closing, or if Buyer had knowledge of any information not disclosed by the Sellers which, with the
passage of time or the giving of notice, may constitute a breach by the Sellers of any of their representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement. 
 (e) In the event that a claim for indemnification hereunder arises from Buyer’s Damages incurred by a Subsidiary, the amount of any indemnity provided in Section 14 shall be reduced (but not below zero) by
the amount of any net reduction in Taxes realized by or which may be realized by the respective Subsidiary in the future as a result of Buyer’s Damages 

 
giving rise to such indemnity claim and the related indemnification payments, to the extent actually included in taxable income. Such net reduction in Taxes
shall be calculated: (i) by using the statutory tax rate applicable to the appropriate Subsidiary which incurred Buyer’s Damages in the applicable jurisdiction; (ii) by taking into account the increases and decreases in Taxes that
have been realized and that may be realized in future years without adjustment for their net present value, except that to the extent that a Subsidiary incurs a Tax loss carry forward as a result of Buyer’s Damages (which shall be determined
without taking into account the effect of any post-Closing business or legal merger or other post-Closing business or legal reorganization affecting the Subsidiary that incurred Buyer’s Damages), an adjustment for net present value shall be
made; and (iii) without taking into account an increase in Taxes that might be realized in future years by the Buyer or Buyer Affiliate as a result of any adjustment to the purchase price of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary that is due to
receipt of an indemnification payment from Sellers. 
 (f) The amount of any indemnity provided in Section 14 shall be
computed net of any third party insurance proceeds actually received by a Buyer Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any claim giving rise to an indemnification claim hereunder (reduced by any retroactive premium increase and
further reduced by the net present value of any other premium increase resulting therefrom). If the indemnity amount is paid prior to the Buyer Indemnified Party’s actual receipt of insurance proceeds related thereto, and a Buyer Indemnified
Party subsequently receives such insurance proceeds, then the Buyer Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Sellers the amount of insurance proceeds subsequently received (net of all related costs, expenses and other Buyer’s Damages), but
not more, in the aggregate, than the indemnity amount paid by the Sellers. The Sellers’ obligation to pay an indemnification claim pursuant to this Section 14 in any instance in which third party insurance is reasonably available to cover
the events and circumstances giving rise to the indemnification claim is subject to the Buyer Indemnified Party first filing a claim under the applicable insurance policy(ies). 
 (g) Except as expressly provided in this Section 14, after the Closing, the Sellers shall have no obligation or liability to the
Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall have no claim or recourse against the Sellers arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, it being understood and
agreed by the parties that the remedies provided for in this Section 14 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies for any such claim for any such matters, whether such claims are framed in contract, tort, violation of statute or otherwise.

 (h) Neither the Seller or any of its Affiliates shall have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any
punitive damages or any multiple of damages (other than such damages for the benefit of a third party). 
 (i) For the
avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in Sections 14.03(a) and (b) apply to all of Sellers’ indemnity obligations under Sections 14.01(c), 14.01(d) and 14.02 of this Agreement, including the limitations regarding the survival
period for Sellers’ indemnification obligations and the application of the Basket and the application of the limitation on the aggregate liability of the Sellers hereunder. 

 (j) For purposes of determining the amount of Damages resulting from a breach for
purposes of Section 14.01(a), but not for determining whether a breach exists, any qualification contained in any representation or warranty using the words “material,” “materially” or “Material Adverse Effect”
shall be disregarded and deemed not to include such words, except that [a] no specific dollar threshold set forth in any particular representation or warranty shall be affected; and [b] this Section 14.03(j) shall not apply to the
definition of “Material Contracts” in Section 9.08. 
 14.04 Indemnification by Buyer. Notwithstanding
the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Sellers, its directors, officers, employees and shareholders harmless from and against any damage, liability, loss, cost or
deficiency (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incident to proceedings or investigations or the defense or settlement of any claim but not including punitive damages) (the
“Sellers’ Damages”) arising out of, resulting from or relating to any of the following: 
 (a) any
inaccuracy in or breach of the representations or warranties of Buyer set forth in this Agreement; 
 (b) any failure to duly
perform or satisfy the Assumed Liabilities or duly perform or observe any term, provision or covenant to be performed or observed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any agreement to be executed by Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

 (c) except for liabilities for which Buyer is expressly entitled to indemnification hereunder, any and all liabilities
relating to the Business and/or the Purchased Assets which arise after the Closing Date; and 
 (d) all environmental losses,
costs, damages or expenses resulting from or arising out of events or circumstances occurring at, in, on, upon or from the Real Property after the Closing Date. 
 For purposes of determining the amount of Damages resulting from a breach for purposes of Section 14.04(a), any qualification contained in any representation or warranty using the words “material,” “materially” or
“Material Adverse Effect” shall be disregarded and deemed not to include such words. 
 14.05 Procedure.

 (a) Following the discovery of any facts or conditions which could reasonably be expected to give rise to either
Buyer’s Damages or the Sellers’ Damages, the party seeking indemnification under this Section 14 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, within thirty (30) days thereafter, provide written notice to the party from whom
indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”), specifying the factual basis of the claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the party seeking indemnification (“Indemnification Notice”); provided
that the 

 
failure to give such notice in such time period shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations except to the extent it can show prejudice from
such failure. 
 (b) If any Indemnified Party receives notice of any matter involving a third party which, if sustained, could
give rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall within the time specified in Section 14.05(a) above, provide written notice to the Indemnifying Party of such matter
setting forth with reasonable specificity the facts and circumstances as to which such party has received notice; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall in any event give written notice to the Indemnifying Party within such period of
time as shall be reasonably necessary to allow the Indemnifying Party to respond to any pleading or other document for which a timely response is required; provided further, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying
the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is thereby prejudiced. 
 (c) Within ninety (90) days after the notice described in Section 14.05(b) above is received from the Indemnified Party, or such
shorter period as is required to avoid prejudice in any claim, suit or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume and thereafter conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory
to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party must conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order to preserve its rights in this regard; provided further, however, that the
Indemnifying Party may not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) unless the judgment or proposed settlement involves only the payment of money damages, resolves the claim entirely, and does not impose an injunction or other equitable relief upon the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party, at its option
and expense, shall have the right to participate in any defense undertaken by the Indemnifying Party with legal counsel of its own selection. 
 (d) Unless and until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Third Party Claim as provided in Section 14.05(c) above, the Indemnified Party may defend against the Third Party Claim in any manner it
reasonably deems appropriate. 
 (e) In no event shall the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 (f) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may agree in writing, at any time, as to the existence and amount of a Third Party
Claim, and, upon the execution of such agreement, such Third Party Claim shall be deemed established. 
 (g) The Indemnified
Party shall provide all information and assistance reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party in order to evaluate any Third Party Claim and affect any defense, compromise or settlement thereof. 

 (h) The provisions of this Section 14.05 shall apply to the conduct of any Tax
Contest only to the extent they do not conflict with the provisions set forth in Section 11.03. 
 15. Termination. 

15.01 Methods of Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing: 
 (a) by written agreement of the parties hereto; 
 (b) by either Buyer or the Sellers if there shall have been a failure on the part of the other party to perform any of its material
covenants under this Agreement; provided, however, that the party claiming material breach or failure to perform on the part of the other party shall serve notice thereof on the other party as soon practicable after it becomes aware of such material
breach or failure and provided, further, that such material breach or failure has not been remedied within thirty (30) days after notice thereof has been given to such other party (it being agreed that where such 30-day notice period would
extend beyond the scheduled closing hereunder, the Closing will be postponed to such 30th day); or 
 (c) by either Buyer or
the Sellers in the event the conditions to the terminating party’s obligations under Section 7 or Section 8 above, as applicable, have not been met or otherwise waived by the terminating party on or prior to July 31,
2006, but only if the terminating party has not caused the condition giving rise to termination to not be satisfied through its own action or inaction. 
 15.02 Procedure Upon Termination. In the event of termination by Buyer or by the Sellers, or both, pursuant to
Section 15.01(c) above, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be terminated, without further action by Buyer or the Sellers. If the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement are terminated as provided herein, each party shall redeliver all documents, workpapers and other material of the other party relating to the transactions contemplated hereby whether obtained before or after execution hereof, to
the party furnishing the same. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 15.01(a) or Section 15.01(c) above, neither party hereto shall have any liability or obligation to the other party to this Agreement as a result of such
termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 15.01(b) above, the non-breaching party, in addition to its other rights and remedies, shall be entitled to recover its costs and expenses which are reasonably incurred in
connection with the negotiation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that a condition precedent to its obligations is not satisfied, nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require any party to terminate this
Agreement, rather than to waive such condition precedent and proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby or permit the other party additional time to attempt to satisfy such condition precedent. 
 16. Dispute Resolution. Except with respect to any action seeking injunctive or other equitable relief for a breach, or an alleged or threatened
breach, of Sections 13.04 or 13.05 above, any controversy between the Sellers and Buyer arising out of or relating to this 

 
Agreement shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be conducted in Chicago, Illinois, in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International
Chamber of Commerce before three neutral arbitrators, at the request of either the Sellers or Buyer. In the event of an arbitration pursuant to this Section 16, the Sellers and Buyer shall each select an arbitrator within ten (10) days
after a written demand is made for arbitration hereunder and, within an additional ten (10) days thereafter, the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator who shall act as chairman; each arbitrator shall have one vote. The
arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to choice of law principles thereunder. The arbitration decision or award shall be reasoned, provide findings of fact and
conclusions of law, be in writing, and be final and binding. Judgment upon the decision or award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered and specifically enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties hereby consent and irrevocably
submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the Eastern District of Wisconsin or the State of New Jersey for any action to enforce the arbitrator’s decision and award. The expenses of arbitration shall be borne
equally between the Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand; provided, however, that each party shall pay for and bear the cost of its own experts, evidence, and legal fees; and provided further, however, that in the discretion of the
arbitrators, any award may include the cost of a party’s attorney’s fees and costs if the arbitrator expressly determines that the party against whom such award is entered has caused the dispute, controversy, or claim to be submitted to
arbitration as a dilatory tactic. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the arbitrators award either party consequential, incidental or punitive damages. 
 17. Miscellaneous. 
 17.01 Further Assurances. Upon request, from time to time, each party agrees that it shall (or direct its employees to, if applicable) execute and deliver all documents, make all rightful oaths, testify in any proceedings and do all
other acts which may be necessary or desirable in the reasonable opinion of the other party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 17.02 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and subject to the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to choice of law principles thereunder. 
 17.03 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and there are no agreements, representations or warranties which are not set forth herein. All prior negotiations, agreements and understandings with respect to such subject matter are superseded hereby.

shall be made prior to the Closing (by way of press release, disclosure to the trade or otherwise), except with the mutual agreement of the parties. 

 17.05 Notices. Any notice to be given hereunder shall be deemed given and

terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

Transfer Laws. Buyer hereby waives compliance by the Sellers with the provisions of any so-called bulk transfer law in any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. 

 17.11 Benefit. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer on any person other than the parties hereto or their respective heirs, successors, executors, administrators and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities
under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 17.12 Facsimile Signature; Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by
facsimile delivery of original signatures, and in counterparts, both of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when such counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered, including by facsimile, to

 17.13 Performance by Buyer. 
 (a) Buyer shall be entitled to nominate one or more of its Affiliates (herein “Designated Affiliates” and each a
“Designated Affiliate”) to acquire any or all of the Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests (and any rights of Buyer arising hereunder with respect to the acquisition of such Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interest) and assume any
or all of the Assumed Liabilities instead of the Buyer. Buyer shall exercise the foregoing right by submitting not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (unless a shorter notification period shall be approved by Sellers,
such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) a written declaration to Sellers that sets forth the Designated Affiliates and the Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests they shall acquire and the Assumed Liabilities they shall assume. The
Designated Affiliate(s) shall acquire the relevant Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests and assume the Assumed Liabilities on the Closing Date in lieu of Buyer under Local Transfer Documents. Buyer shall remain liable for all of
Buyer’s obligations arising under this Agreement including Buyer’s obligations respecting Assumed Liabilities, and shall be entitled to exercise any or all rights and remedies hereunder, if any, on behalf of any Designated Affiliate.

 (b) Buyer shall submit to Sellers for their approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, drafts of the required
transfer documentation to effect the transfer of the Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities (herein “Local Transfer Documents”). The Local Transfer Documents shall not contain any
provisions other than those necessary to effect the transfer of the Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities; in particular they shall not contain any representations and warranties, unless otherwise
required by mandatory law. In case of any inconsistencies between the Local Transfer Documents and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Any transfer of Purchased Assets and/or Equity Interests under the Local Transfer Documents
shall be subject to the payment of the Purchase Price and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities.
