Article 2

Services

 

Section 2.01.     Services.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, commencing on the Closing Date and continuing thereafter
until the termination or expiration of services pursuant to Article 6, (i) Seller agrees to provide to Buyer,
or procure the provision to Buyer of, the transition services set forth on Schedule A and Article 3 in consideration
of the fees payable by Buyer to Seller pursuant to Article 4, and (ii) Buyer agrees to provide to Seller, or procure
the provision to Seller of, the transition services set forth on Schedule B and Article 3 in consideration of
the fees payable by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Article 4. Each of the services set forth on Schedules A and
B, as such Schedules may be amended from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, and Article 3 are referred
to individually as a “Service” and collectively as the “Services.” The party providing a
Service pursuant to this Agreement shall be referred to as the “Provider Entity” with respect to such Service
and the party receiving such Service pursuant to this Agreement shall be referred to as the “Recipient Entity”
with respect to such Service.

 

    	 	3	 

     

    

 

(b)          It
is understood and agreed that (i) the Services to be provided to any Recipient Entity under this Agreement shall, at such
Recipient Entity’s request, be provided to any Person that is an Affiliate of such Recipient Entity (in which case, such
Affiliate shall be included in the definition of “Recipient Entity” for all purposes hereof in respect of such
Service), which Affiliates it may change at its discretion from time to time, and (ii) any Provider Entity may satisfy its
obligation to provide or procure Services hereunder by causing one or more of its Affiliates to provide or procure such Services
(in which case, such Affiliates shall be included in the definition of “Provider Entity” for all purposes hereof
in respect of such Service), which Affiliates it may change at its discretion from time to time; provided that such Provider
Entity and such Recipient Entity, as the case may be, shall remain responsible for the performance of such Affiliates. Except as
contemplated by this Section 2.01(b), no Recipient Entity shall resell or pass through any of the Services to any Person.

 

(c)          At
any time prior to the expiration of this Agreement, the Recipient Entity may request in writing that Providing Entity make available
under the terms of this Agreement services in addition to those set forth on Schedule A or Schedule B or Article 3,
as applicable (“Additional Services”). The parties will work collaboratively and in good faith to determine
whether an Additional Service should be added to this Agreement, and the appropriate scope, service level (if applicable) and duration
of such Additional Service. Any approved Additional Service shall be considered a “Service” within the scope of this
Agreement and shall be charged to Recipient Party at cost (or as otherwise may be agreed in writing) for such Service from the
date such Services were first provided to Recipient Entity.

 

(d)          Except
for the Services expressly contemplated to be provided in accordance with this Section 2.01 or Article 3,
neither party shall have any obligation under this Agreement to provide any services to the other party.

 

(e)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any Provider Entity be required to provide any services not otherwise expressly
provided for in this Agreement and the Schedules hereto.

 

Section 2.02.     Standard
of Service. (a) Unless otherwise indicated on Schedule A or B hereto or Article 3 or the parties
agree in writing to a different arrangement, the standard of quality of any Service required to be provided to the Recipient Entity
hereunder shall be consistent in all material respects with the standard of quality of such Service as provided by the Seller and
its Affiliates to the Business during the 12-month period prior to the Closing (the “Baseline Period”).

 

(b)          The
Provider Entity agrees that all Services it provides or causes to be provided will be provided in compliance with applicable Law.

 

(c)          Provider
Entity shall not be responsible for any inability to provide a Service or any delay in doing so to the extent that such inability
or delay is the result of the failure of Recipient Entity to timely provide the information, access or other cooperation necessary
for Provider Entity to provide such Service.

 

    	 	4	 

     

    

 

Section 2.03.     Changes
to the Services. It is understood and agreed that Buyer in its capacity as Provider Entity may from time to time modify, change
or enhance the manner, nature, quality and/or standard of care of any Service provided to the Recipient Entity to the extent that
Buyer or its Affiliates are making a similar change in the performance of such services for Buyer or its Affiliates; provided
that any such modification, change or enhancement is not reasonably expected to have an adverse effect on such Service in any
material respect.

 

Section 2.04.     Third
Party Licenses and Consents. The Provider Entity shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, and to keep and maintain
in effect, all governmental or third party licenses, consents or amendments required for the provision of any Service by the Provider
Entity in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided that if the Provider Entity is unable to obtain any such
license, consent or amendment, the Provider Entity shall promptly notify the Recipient Entity in writing and shall, and shall cause
its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to implement an appropriate alternative arrangement (to the extent that
such alternative arrangement complies with applicable law and any contract to which the Provider Entity is a party) under which
Recipient Entity would obtain the benefit of such Service to the same extent (or as nearly as practicable) as if such license,
consent or amendment were obtained, and each party will continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any such
required consent or amendment. The costs relating to obtaining any such licenses, consents or amendments, to the extent that such
costs are required for the provision of a Service by the Provider Entity to the Recipient Entity, shall be borne by the Recipient
Entity; provided that the Provider Entity shall not incur any costs for which the Recipient Entity would be liable without
the prior written consent of the Recipient Entity. If any such license, consent, amendment or alternative arrangement is not available
despite the commercially reasonable efforts of the Provider Entity and its Affiliates or, if applicable, as a result of the Recipient
Entity failing to consent to the incurrence of costs relating to obtaining any such license, consent or amendment, the Provider
Entity shall not be required to provide the affected Services.

 

Section 2.05.     Third
Party Providers. If the Provider Entity receives written notice from any third party service provider that such Person intends
to terminate a service pursuant to which the Provider Entity provides a Service to the Recipient Entity, then the Provider Entity
shall (a) provide a copy of such written notice to the Recipient Entity and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to
secure the continued provision of that Service from such third party or an alternative service provider. If the Provider Entity
is unable to secure the continued provision of that Service from such third party or an alternative service provider, the Provider
Entity shall not be required to provide the affected Service (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Recipient Entity shall not be
liable for any fees in respect of such Service, to the extent not provided).

 

Section 2.06.     Cooperation.
Seller and Buyer shall share information and otherwise cooperate to the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate the provision
and receipt of Services under this Agreement. The parties will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate in a commercially
reasonable manner in order that the respective obligations of the parties under this Agreement will be effectively efficiently
and promptly discharged.

 

    	 	5	 

     

    

 

Section 2.07.     Intellectual
Property. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with respect to each Service, each Provider Entity
(on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) hereby grants to each Recipient Entity and its Affiliates a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free,
non-sublicensable, non-assignable (except as expressly provided for in Section 8.04) license on an “as is,”
warranty-free basis, solely during the Service Period for such Service, to use any Intellectual Property (other than trademark
rights) that is both (i) owned or licensable by such Provider Entity or any of its Affiliates and (ii) provided or otherwise
made available by such Provider Entity or any of its Affiliates to such Recipient Entity as part of such Service, but in each case,
solely to the extent necessary for such Recipient Entity and its Affiliates to receive and use such Service as provided for and
in accordance with this Agreement, subject to any applicable third party restrictions or limitations.

 

(b)          Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, with respect to each Service, each Recipient Entity (on behalf of itself and its
Affiliates) hereby grants to each Provider Entity and its Affiliates a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-sublicensable,
non-assignable (except as expressly provided for in Section 8.04) license on an “as is”, warranty-free
basis, solely during the Service Period for such Service, to use any Intellectual Property (other than trademark rights) owned
or licensable by such Recipient Entity or any of its Affiliates, but in each case solely to the extent necessary for such Provider
Entity, its Affiliates or any third party service provider to perform such Service as provided for an in accordance with this Agreement
(it being understood that such Provider Entity and its Affiliates shall have the right to grant a sublicense to the foregoing license
to any third party service provider).

 

(c)          ALL
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LICENSED HEREUNDER ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS WITH NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. EXCEPT
AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NO LICENSES OR OTHER RIGHTS TO ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR OTHER ASSETS ARE GRANTED
TO EITHER PARTY HERETO UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BY IMPLICATION, ESTOPPEL, EXHAUSTION OR OTHERWISE, AND EACH PARTY HERETO RETAINS
AND RESERVES ALL RIGHTS NOT EXPRESSLY GRANTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

 

(d)          Except
as expressly set forth in this Section 2.07, this Agreement and the performance of the Services hereunder shall not
affect the ownership of any Intellectual Property or other assets of each party. As between the parties, Buyer or its designee
shall solely and exclusively own any and all Intellectual Property (including any and all data) that arise out of, or result from
or are derived from any and all Services (“Developed Intellectual Property”). Seller hereby irrevocably assigns,
and shall cause its Affiliates, or its or their respective employees, authorized agents and subcontractors, to assign, to Buyer
or its designee all of Seller’s and its Affiliates’ (or its or their respective employees’, authorized agents’
and subcontractors’) rights, title and interest in and to the Developed Intellectual Property. Seller shall (and shall cause
its Affiliates and its or their respective employees, authorized agents and subcontractors to) execute all other documents and
take all actions as may be necessary or desirable to enable Buyer (or its designee) to prosecute, perfect, enforce, defend, register
and/or record its right, title and interest in, to and under the Developed Intellectual Property.

 

    	 	6	 

     

    

 

Section 2.08.     Data
Ownership and Data Protection. The Provider Entity shall use any and all data collected, processed, used, or stored by or on
behalf of any Recipient Entity during the performance of any Services solely for the purpose of providing the Services and in compliance
with all applicable privacy and data protection Laws and any other third party contractual obligations that such Recipient Entity
notifies the Provider Entity of in writing. To the extent the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the “GDPR”)
is or becomes applicable to any such data and the provision of the Services hereunder, the parties shall promptly execute a data
processing addendum to the extent required by the GDPR which shall govern the collection, use, storage and other processing of
such data in connection with such Services.

 

Section 2.09.     Force
Majeure. (a) For purposes of this Section 2.09, “force majeure” means an event beyond the
reasonable control of either party, which by its nature could not have been foreseen by such party, or, if it could have been foreseen,
was unavoidable, and includes acts of God, storms, floods, riots, fires, sabotage, civil commotion or civil unrest, interference
by civil or military authorities, threat, declaration, continuation, escalation or acts of war (declared or undeclared) or acts
of terrorism, failure or shortage of energy sources, raw materials or components, strike, walkout, lockout or other labor trouble
or shortage, delays by unaffiliated suppliers or carriers, and acts, omissions or delays in acting by any Governmental Authority
or the other party.

 

(b)          Neither
party shall be under any liability for failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement, so long as, and to the extent to
which, the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of force majeure;
provided that (i) such party shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the effect of such force majeure
on its obligations hereunder, and (ii) such force majeure has prevented such party or its Affiliates from providing services
similar to the affected Services to such party’s business organization. For the avoidance of doubt, while such force majeure
is in effect the Recipient Entity’s payment obligations with respect to any effected Services shall be suspended so long
as and to the extent that the Recipient Entity is not receiving such Service. At the Recipient Entity’s request, the Provider
Entity shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with the Recipient Entity in acquiring any Service affected by such
force majeure from, or transitioning any such Service to, an alternative source. Upon the cessation of the force majeure, the parties
will use their commercially reasonable efforts to promptly resume performance of their obligations under this Agreement.

 

(c)          The
party affected by the force majeure event shall notify the other party of that fact as soon as practicable.

Article 3

Employees

 

Section 3.01.     Current
Employee Services.

 

(a)          From
the Closing through December 31, 2020 (the “Current Employee Term”), Seller shall, and shall cause each
of the other Selling Entities to:

 

(i)        continue
to employ all Current Employees in order to perform the same functions, roles and services for Buyer or one or more of the Buyer
Designees as were performed for Seller or any of the other Selling Entities prior to the Closing Date in respect of the Business
and otherwise perform such functions, roles and services as reasonably directed by Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees
in connection with the transition of the Business to Buyer and the Buyer Designees, other than any Current Employee who terminates
his or her employment; and

 

(ii)       continue
in effect all Seller Benefit Plans in effect as of the Closing Date (except to the extent any such Seller Benefit Plan relates
to equity or equity-based awards of the Seller Entities or any of their Affiliates), without any material amendment, modification
or termination thereto (other than any amendments or modifications required by applicable Law) as they relate to the Current Employees,
and ensure that all Current Employees continue to remain eligible to participate in such Seller Benefit Plans in accordance with
the terms and conditions thereof.

 

(b)          The
services described in Section 3.01(a) shall constitute a “Service” hereunder. The parties hereto
acknowledge and agree that (i) the Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees shall be responsible for all Liabilities arising
from the employment (including any termination-related Liabilities) of any Current Employee following the Closing Date; (ii) none
of the Selling Entities guarantee the actions or omissions of any Current Employee or the quality of work of any Current Employee;
and (iii) none of the Selling Entities guarantee that any individual will remain a Current Employee. None of Selling Entities
shall be responsible for any Current Employee who resigns or otherwise terminates his or her employment, nor shall any of them
be obligated to replace any such Current Employee (but the Selling Entities may replace any such Current Employee who resigns during
the Current Employee Term upon reasonable request of Buyer).

 

(c)          Effective
immediately following expiration of the Current Employee Term, each Seller Benefit Plan, and any right, title or interest in any
assets of or relating thereto (except to the extent such Seller Benefit Plan relates to equity or equity-based awards of the Selling
Entities or any of their Affiliates), shall transfer to Premium Brands Services LLC, and Premium Brands Services LLC shall assume
all Liabilities related thereto, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the terms and limitations of the Asset Purchase
Agreement. The parties hereto will cooperate reasonably and in good faith to execute any additional document(s) that are reasonably
necessary to transfer the sponsorship of such Seller Benefit Plans (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any equity or equity-based
awards of the Selling Entities or any of their Affiliates) as of the expiration of the Current Employee Term, including an assignment
and assumption agreement.

 

    	 	8	 

     

    

 

(d)          At
the reasonable request of the other party hereto, as applicable, from time to time and without further consideration, each party
hereto shall execute and deliver, or shall cause to be executed and delivered, such acknowledgments, assurances and other documents
as may be reasonably necessary for such party to satisfy and perform its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 3.02.     Current
Employee Matters.

 

(a)          During
the Current Employee Term:

 

(i)        all
services, acts and activities of the Current Employees in the course of their employment shall be for the benefit of the Buyer
or one or more of the Buyer Designees (except for (A) any nonmaterial services, acts or activities necessary to effectuate
the Seller Entities’ obligations in the bankruptcy case, under the Asset Purchase Agreement, or in the wind-down of their
operations, or (B) in connection with the provision of other Services hereunder); and

 

(ii)       except
as otherwise provided by the terms of this Agreement, Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees shall, in their sole discretion,
have the authority to make all employment-related decisions with respect to the Current Employees in connection with their provision
of Services hereunder (the “Buyer Directives”), including (A) directing the general scope, manner and method
of activities that the Current Employees will perform on behalf of the Buyer, one or more of the Buyer Designees and the Business,
(B) directing and managing the Current Employees in connection with such activities, (C) setting policies and procedures
and codes of conduct with respect to the Current Employees in connection with such activities, and (D) the right to request
that the Selling Entities terminate the employment of any particular Current Employee (in which case, for the avoidance of doubt,
the Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees shall be responsible for the applicable Compensation Costs and any other costs
or Liabilities incurred or related to such employee’s termination of employment, including any costs to comply with or Liabilities
relating to the WARN Act with respect to terminations of employment of Current Employees after the Closing); provided, however,
that, notwithstanding the foregoing, following any such termination of employment by Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees,
Seller may elect, in its sole discretion, to retain any such Current Employee to assist in the wind-down of its operations; provided
that, following such election by Seller, such individual shall no longer be a Current Employee under this Agreement (and, for the
avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be responsible for the applicable Compensation Costs and any severance costs and other Liabilities
that arise following the date of such election).

 

(b)          For
the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and Seller acknowledge that the services, acts and activities of the Current Employees would ordinarily
be performed by Buyer’s and the Buyer Designees’ own employees. Additionally, Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees
shall provide all supplies, equipment, and other resources necessary for Current Employees to perform their employment services.
Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees has the sole right to supervise, direct, and control the work performed by the Current
Employees as necessary to conduct the Business or to comply with any licensing, statutory, or regulatory requirement applicable
to the Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees.

 

    	 	9	 

     

    

 

(c)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer and the Buyer Designees shall comply with all applicable Law relating to the
Buyer Directives, and neither the Buyer nor any of the Buyer Designees shall instruct Seller or any of the other Selling Entities
to undertake any act or omission with respect to the Current Employees, and neither Seller nor any of the other Selling Entities
shall be required to take or omit to take any action with respect to the Current Employees, if the same would violate applicable
Law or could reasonably be expected to result in Liability to the Seller or any of the other Selling Entities.

 

(d)          Effective
as of the expiration of the Current Employee Term, except as otherwise provided in Section 3.05 hereof, all then remaining
Current Employees shall become employees of one or more of the Buyer Designees on terms that are in compliance with the requirements
of Section 7.7 of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

Section 3.03.     Insurance.
Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees shall at all times during the Current Employee Term, maintain worker’s compensation
and employer’s liability insurance policies (at Buyer’s cost but without duplication of benefits under the Asset Purchase
Agreement) with respect to the Current Employees (and shall endorse Seller as a named insured on all such policies), in such amounts
(if any) and with such limits (if any) as are consistent with the amounts and limits the Selling Entities maintained in respect
of the Current Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date, or as the parties hereto may from time to time otherwise agree
in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer and the Buyer Designees may, with the advance written approval of Seller (which shall
not unreasonably be withheld): (a) self-insure those risks at their discretion consistent with the ordinary course in accordance
with applicable Laws, and (b) shift from self-insured workers compensation plans or programs to third-party insured plans
or programs if self-insurance is no longer available to Buyer and the Buyer Designees under applicable Law. For the avoidance of
doubt, the costs of maintaining and providing such insurance shall be borne by the Buyer or one or more of the Buyer Designees.
The provisions of this Section 3.03 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the Seller with respect to the Remaining
Employees.

 

Section 3.04.     Selling
Entities as Employer. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, in order to provide the Services pursuant to this Article 3,
the relevant Selling Entity is and shall remain during the Current Employee Term the employer of the Current Employees for wage
reporting and benefits purposes only, and the Current Employees shall remain subject to the terms of the Seller Benefit Plans (excluding,
for the avoidance of doubt, any equity or equity-based awards of the Selling Entities or any of their Affiliates) and other policies,
procedures, codes of conduct and other rules established by the Selling Entities regarding conditions of employment that may
be necessary for the Selling Entities to provide the Services pursuant to this Article 3.

 

    	 	10	 

     

    

 

Section 3.05.     Trade
Services Employees. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement,
the Current Employees related to the trade services and broker of record functions of the Selling Entities set forth on Schedule 3.05
(or their replacements, if any, in accordance with this Agreement) are referred to as “Trade Services Employees.”
Notwithstanding the expiration of the Current Employee Term, until such time as one of the Buyer Designees has in place its importer
of record broker license (the “Trade Services Transfer Time”), the relevant Selling Entities shall continue
to employee the Trade Services Employees, the provisions of Section 3.01 through Section 3.04 and Section 4.02
shall continue to apply with respect to the Trade Services Employees as if the Current Employee Term continued until the Trade
Services Transfer Time; provided that:

 

(a)          the
Seller Benefit Plans (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any equity or equity-based awards of the Selling Entities or any of
their Affiliates) will transfer upon the original expiration of the Current Employee Term; and

 

(b)          one
of the Buyer Designees shall continue (i) coverage for Trade Services Employees under the Seller Benefit Plans and (ii) payroll
processing services with respect to Trade Services Employees.

 

Section 3.06.     Remaining
and Former Employees. Following the expiration of the Current Employee Term, the Selling Entities may continue to employ any
of their employees that are not Current Employees (the “Remaining Employees”). From the end of the Current Employee
Term through March 31, 2021 (the “Wind Down Period”), Premium Brands Services LLC shall continue (a) coverage
for Remaining Employees under the Seller Benefit Plans (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any equity or equity-based awards
of the Selling Entities or any of their Affiliates, and as such Seller Benefit Plans may otherwise be amended or otherwise modified
from time to time by Premium Brands Services LLC in accordance with the Asset Purchase Agreement, and, if so required, the parties
hereto shall implement amendments to the Seller Benefit Plans to permit such coverage (and the coverage under Section 3.05(b)))
and (b) payroll processing services with respect to Remaining Employees and any former employees of the Selling Entities who
continue to receive payments related to employment through payroll (e.g., severance and bonus payouts). The Selling Entities
shall be responsible for all costs associated with Premium Brands Services LLC’s obligations set forth in clauses (a) and
(b) of the prior sentence, with such costs to include (A) the costs of maintaining and amending the Seller Benefit Plans
in a manner necessary to permit the Remaining Employees to participate in the Seller Benefit Plans during the Wind Down Period,
(B) any additional costs incurred with respect to payroll processing services for the Remaining Employees during the Wind
Down Period, (C) contributions to Seller Benefit Plans with respect to the Remaining Employees during the Wind Down Period
and (D) the amount of actual medical, dental, disability and other benefits or claims incurred by Remaining Employees (and
any eligible spouse or dependent thereof) under self-insured Seller Benefit Plans or worker’s compensation plans, policies
or programs during the Wind Down Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Selling Entities shall be responsible for all amounts
due and owing to the Remaining Employees to be paid through payroll (including employer-side payroll taxes related thereto) to
Remaining Employees during the Wind Down Period.

Article 4

Service Costs

 

Section 4.01.     Service
Costs Generally. The fees to be paid (i) by Buyer to Seller for each Service to be provided under this Agreement shall
be as set forth for such Service on Schedule A and (ii) by Seller to Buyer for each Service to be provided under this
Agreement shall be as set forth for such Service on Schedule B or, in the case of Services contemplated by Article 3,
in Section 4.02 (any such costs being referred to herein as “Service Costs”). Except as otherwise
provided on Schedule A or Schedule B, for any Service priced on a monthly or other periodic basis, the fee set
forth on the applicable Schedule will be equitably prorated if the Closing Date or the date on which such Service is commenced
or terminated is not the first calendar day or the last calendar day, respectively, of a calendar month or other relevant period.

 

Section 4.02.     Compensation
Costs.

 

(a)          Solely
with respect to Services contemplated by Article 3, “Service Costs” shall (i) include “fully
loaded” costs for the compensation and employee benefits payable or provided to the Current Employees in the ordinary course
(as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) (with any changes outside the ordinary course as may be reasonably necessary for either
party to comply with applicable Laws or shift from self-insured workers compensation plans or programs to third-party insured plans
or programs if self-insurance is no longer available to the Provider Entity under applicable Law, subject to the Recipient Entity’s
prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) with respect to the period from and after the Closing through
the end of the Current Employee Term or the expiration of the Wind Down Period, as the case may be (the “Compensation
Costs”), which Compensation Costs shall be inclusive of (A) employee withholding, payroll and similar taxes (including
employer-side payroll taxes), (B) contributions to Seller Benefit Plans (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any equity
or equity-based awards of the Selling Entities or any of their Affiliates), and (C) the amount of actual medical, dental,
disability and other benefits or claims incurred by Current Employees (and any eligible spouse or dependent thereof) under self-insured
Seller Benefit Plans or worker’s compensation plans, policies or programs, (ii) include only such reasonable and documented
third-party costs or reasonable and documented other non-payroll out-of-pocket expenses that are actually incurred in connection
with employing, insuring, and providing benefits to the Current Employees in the ordinary course (with any changes outside the
ordinary course as may be reasonably necessary for the Provider Entity to comply with applicable Laws or shift from self-insured
workers compensation plans or programs to third-party insured plans or programs if self-insurance is no longer available to the
Provider Entity under applicable Law, subject to the Recipient Entity’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld) during the Current Employee Term or the Wind Down Period, as the case may be (“Third Party Costs”),
and (iii) not include Compensation Costs incurred with respect to any employee who is not a Current Employee or a Remaining
Employee, as the case may be.

 

(b)          With
respect to each payroll period ending during the Current Employee Term or the Wind Down Period, as the case may be, the Recipient
Entity will deposit, or cause to be deposited, cash into the applicable payroll account with respect to the Compensation Costs
incurred for such payroll period in time for such Compensation Costs to be paid in accordance with past practice for such payroll
period, and the Recipient Entity will timely pay, or cause to be timely paid, all Third Party Costs for such payroll period.

 

    	 	12	 

     

    

 

(c)          The
obligations of the Provider Entity to provide the Services contemplated by Article 3 shall be conditioned upon the
Recipient Entity’s prepayment (in accordance with this Section 4.02) of the Service Costs (including Third Party
Costs) payable under this Section 4.02. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require double payment in
respect of the obligations of any party set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents.

 

Section 4.03.     Taxes.
Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in order to minimize any sales, use, value added, goods and services or similar Taxes (collectively,
 “Sales Taxes”) imposed on the sale of the Services, including providing any applicable sales and use Tax exemption
certificates or other documentation necessary to support the characterization of such Services and any available explicit exemptions.
Each Recipient Entity shall pay all applicable Sales Taxes incurred with respect to provision of the Services. Such Sales Taxes
shall be incremental to other payments or charges identified in this Agreement. Each of Buyer and Seller shall provide executed
copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such party is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax. Each party hereto shall
be responsible for its own income and franchise Taxes, except as otherwise provided in the Asset Purchase Agreement or any of the
other Transaction Documents. Buyer and Seller each agree to provide to the other such information and data as reasonably requested
from time to time and, at the other party’s request, to reasonably cooperate in connection with (a) the reporting of
any Sales Taxes applicable to the Services, (b) any audit relating to any such Sales Taxes, or (c) any assessment, refund,
claim or proceeding relating to any such Sales Taxes. If any Recipient Entity is required to withhold from any amounts otherwise
due and payable to the respective Provider Entity pursuant to this Agreement, such Recipient Entity shall be permitted to so withhold
and any amounts withheld shall be deemed paid to such Provider Entity for purposes of this Agreement. If any such withholding relates
to amounts other than with respect to income and franchise Taxes, the amount paid to such Provider Entity by such Recipient Entity
for such Services shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions and withholdings have been made (including
such deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable hereunder), such Provider Entity receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

 

Section 4.04.     Invoicing
and Settlement. (a) Unless otherwise indicated on Schedule A or B hereto or in Section 4.02
or the parties agree in writing to a different arrangement, the Provider Entity shall invoice in writing the Recipient Entity on
a monthly basis for the charges for Services hereunder for the prior month within 30 days of the end of the applicable calendar
month (the date of delivery of such invoice, the “Invoice Date”). Each such invoice shall be in a format and
contain a level of detail reasonably sufficient under the circumstances to identify the Services provided during the applicable
period and Provider Entity’s calculation of the amounts payable in respect thereof. Provider Entity agrees to provide Recipient
Entity with a copy of any supporting documentation for any such invoices that Recipient Entity may reasonably request.

 

    	 	13	 

     

    

 

(b)          The
Recipient Entity agrees to pay on or before the date (each, a “Payment Date”) that is 30 days after the Invoice
Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds payable to the order of the Provider Entity to such account(s) designated
by the Provider Entity all amounts invoiced by the Provider Entity pursuant to Section 4.04(a).

 

(c)          If
Recipient Entity fails to make payment of any Service Costs in accordance with this Section 4.04(a), it shall be required
to pay, in addition to the amount of such unpaid Service Costs, interest on such amount at (i) the rate of interest per annum
publicly announced by JP Morgan Chase Bank from time to time as its prime rate in effect at its office located at 270 Park Avenue,
New York, New York, plus 5%, or (ii) if lower, the highest rate of interest permitted by applicable Law at such time, in each
case compounded monthly from, and including, the relevant Payment Date through, but excluding, the actual date of payment.

 

(d)          If
there is a good faith dispute (an “Invoice Dispute”) between Provider Entity and Recipient Entity regarding
any amount set forth in any invoice of Service Costs, the disputing party shall promptly notify the other party in writing of each
amount that is disputed and the basis therefor; provided that any undisputed invoiced amount shall be paid in accordance
with ‎Section 4.04(b). Provider Entity and Recipient Entity shall cooperate and use their commercially reasonable
efforts to resolve any such Invoice Dispute. If Provider Entity and Recipient Entity are unable to resolve the Invoice Dispute
within 20 days after the applicable party’s receipt of the notice of dispute, then either Provider Entity or Recipient Entity
may refer the Invoice Dispute for resolution to Alix Partners (or, if such Person is unwilling or unable to serve, such other similar
consulting firm of recognized national standing as Provider Entity and Recipient Entity may mutually agree, which agreement shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, in the event such parties are unable to
mutually agree on such Person, Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, will each select a consulting firm of recognized
national standing and each such selected consulting firm will select a third independent consulting firm of recognized national
standing to be deemed to be the independent referee hereunder (the “Invoice Accounting Referee”), which shall
determine the disputed amounts. The determinations of the Invoice Accounting Referee shall be final and binding on Provider Entity
and Recipient Entity. The fees and expenses of the Invoice Accounting Referee shall be borne by Provider Entity and Recipient Entity
in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items submitted to the Accounting Referee that are unsuccessfully
disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Invoice Accounting Referee) bears to the total amount of such disputed
items so submitted. If based on the determinations of the Invoice Accounting Referee any amount is owed by one party to the other
party, then the applicable party shall promptly pay such amount with interest, from the date that such amount was required to be
paid pursuant to ‎Section 4.04(b) to (but excluding) the date of payment by the applicable party of such amount
to the other party.

 

Section 4.05.     Right
to Offset. Each party hereto shall be permitted to offset amounts owing to such party pursuant to this Agreement against payments
to be made by such party pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 5.01.     Confidentiality.
(a) “Confidential Information” means all information in the possession of a party or any of its Affiliates
relating to the other party or any Affiliate thereof, relating to, arising out of or in connection with the Services rendered or
to be rendered hereunder, but not including (i) information that enters the public domain (or becomes generally known within
the industry), other than as a result of a disclosure in violation of this Agreement, (ii) information independently developed
or acquired by a party without violating this Section 5.01(a), and/or (iii) information which becomes available
on a non-confidential basis to a party from a source other than the other party to this Agreement; provided that the party
in question reasonably believes that such source is not or was not bound to hold such information confidential.

 

(b)          “Representatives”
means such Person’s directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, Affiliates’ employees, agents and advisors (including
investment bankers and counsel).

 

(c)          Except
with the prior written consent of the other party, each party will use the other party’s Confidential Information solely
in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restrict access
to the other party’s Confidential Information to those employees of such party and its Affiliates and its and their Representatives
requiring access for the purpose of providing Services hereunder; provided, however, that each party may make any disclosure
permitted pursuant to Section 5.01(d). Each party agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Section 5.01
caused by its Representatives. Any act or failure to act by a Representative of a party that would be a breach hereof if such party
took such action or failed to take such action will be deemed such a breach.

 

(d)          If
either party or any of its Representatives is requested by, or such party or any of its Representatives reasonably believes it
is required by, law, rule, regulation, stock exchange rule or legal process, to disclose any of the Confidential Information
relating to the other party, then if permitted under applicable Law, the disclosing party will provide the other party with prompt
notice of any such request or requirement so that such other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy against
a third party, to the extent it would be reasonably applicable to the situation. The disclosing party agrees to cooperate with
the other party in such other party’s effort to obtain such protective order or other remedies. If such protective order
or other remedy is not obtained, or is otherwise not reasonably applicable, the portions of the Confidential Information required
to be disclosed (and only such portions) may be disclosed without any liability hereunder.

 

Section 5.02.     Information
Technology Systems. (a) “IT Systems” means any computer software program or information technology
system, or part thereof, owned, licensed, leased or provided by a party or leased or provided by its suppliers on such party’s
behalf.

 

(b)          The
IT Systems of each party, and any and all modifications or enhancements thereof, or improvements thereto, are and shall remain
the sole and exclusive property of such party or its Affiliates and/or its or their suppliers, as applicable.

 

    	 	15	 

     

    

 

(c)          Each
party, its Affiliates and its or their respective employees, authorized agents and subcontractors, shall: (i) only use or
access the other party’s IT Systems, premises or data to the extent authorized by the other party or required to provide
or receive the Services, (ii) maintain reasonable security measures to protect the IT Systems of the other party to which
it has access pursuant to this Agreement from access by unauthorized third parties, and any “back door”, “time
bomb”, “Trojan Horse”, “worm”, “drop dead service”, “virus” or other computer
software routine intended or designed to disrupt, disable, harm or otherwise impede in any manner the operation of such IT Systems,
(iii) not permit access or use of the IT Systems of the other party by a third party other than as authorized by prior written
consent of the other party, (iv) not disable, damage or erase or disrupt or impair the normal operations of the IT Systems
of the other party and (v) comply with the other party’s security policies and procedures (as may be updated from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice) in relation to the use and access of the other party’s IT Systems. Each party shall
promptly notify the other party in the event it or any of its Affiliates becomes aware of or suspects that there has been a breach
of security or a loss, theft or unauthorized access, use or disclosure of any IT Systems, premises or data of any Provider Entity
or Recipient Entity.

 

Section 5.03.     Books
and Records. (a) Each party shall maintain true and accurate books and records of all transactions pertaining to, and
all data used by such party and its Affiliates in the performance of, the Services (the “TSA Records”). The
TSA Records shall be maintained in accordance with applicable Law.

 

(b)          Subject
to applicable Law and the confidentiality provisions of Section 5.01, with respect to any Service during the term of
such Service, each party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, upon reasonable advance notice, afford the other party and its
representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the employees, properties, TSA Records and other documents
that are reasonably requested in connection with the provision and receipt of such Service hereunder; provided that any
such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of the party providing such access; and provided
further that in the event any party reasonably determines that affording any such access to the other party would be commercially
detrimental in any material respect or violate any applicable Law or agreement to which such party or any Affiliate thereof is
a party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such party or any Affiliate thereof, the parties shall use reasonable
efforts to permit the compliance with such request in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

 

Section 5.04.     Compliance
with Applicable Law. Each party shall at all times fully comply with all applicable Law to which such party and its Affiliates
(to the extent such Affiliates are engaged in the receipt or provision of Services) are subject in connection with the receipt
or provision of Services hereunder, as applicable.

 

Section 5.05.     Employee
Matters. All matters relating to Current Employees (including Trade Services Employees) and Transferred Employees (including,
in each case, in the provision of Services to Seller and its Affiliates in accordance with the the terms hereof) shall be under
the direction, control and supervision of the Buyer. All matters relating to Remaining Employees shall be under the direction,
control and supervision of the Selling Entities. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to transfer the employment of employees
engaged in the provision of any Service from one party to the other. All employees of a party and any of its Affiliates will be
deemed for all compensation, employee benefits, tax and social security contribution purposes to be employees of such party or
its Affiliates and not employees of the other party or any of its Affiliates. In providing the Services, Provider Entity shall
not be obligated to maintain the employment of any specific employee.

Article 6

Term and Termination

 

Section 6.01.     Term.
Except as otherwise provided in this Article 6, the Provider Entity shall provide each Service beginning on the Closing
Date for the period set forth opposite such Service on the applicable Schedule A or Schedule B or for the periods
specified in Article 3 (each such period, a “Service Period” and the longest Service Period, as
amended, the “Term”).

 

Section 6.02.     Termination
of Services. (a) Any Service (or portion thereof) may be terminated at any time prior to expiration of the applicable
Service Period as follows:

 

(i)        by
the Recipient Entity, for any reason or for no reason, by delivery of written notice to the Provider Entity not less than ten days
prior to the effective date of such termination (a “Termination Notice”); or

 

(ii)       by
either party, if the other party is in material breach of this Agreement, upon ten days’ notice to the other party and the
other party’s failure to cure during such ten days.

 

(b)          If
(i) Buyer reasonably determines that the termination of a Service provided by Seller or its Affiliates at the expiration of
the applicable Service Period would disrupt the operation of the Business or (ii) Seller reasonably determines that the termination
of a Service provided by Buyer or its Affiliates would disrupt the wind down of its operations, in each case, the party receiving
the Service may request that the other party consent to an extension of the term of the Service with at least 30 days’ prior
written notice, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except in the case of a termination pursuant
to Section 6.02(a)(ii). Such notice must specify the Service to be extended and the period of extension requested by
the requesting party.

 

(c)          Any
Service may be terminated without the termination of any other Service; provided that if, in the reasonable determination
of Provider Entity, it is technically infeasible or commercially impracticable to terminate one Service without terminating one
or more other Services, Recipient Entity shall be required (upon reasonable notice by Provider Entity following receipt of a Termination
Notice) to concurrently terminate all such Services for which separate termination would be technically infeasible or commercially
impracticable. Each Provider Entity acknowledges and agrees that after partial termination of this Agreement by the respective
Recipient Entity with respect to any particular Service, such Recipient Entity shall not have any payment obligations with respect
to such Service performed after the effective date of such termination.

 

    	 	17	 

     

    

 

Section 6.03.     Termination
of this Agreement. (a) This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) expiration of the Term and
(ii) the date on which all Services have expired pursuant to Section 6.01 and/or been terminated pursuant to Section 6.02(a) (the
period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date of termination pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the “Transition
Period”).

 

(b)          The
provisions of Section 2.07(c), Section 2.07(d), the first sentence of Section 2.08, Article 6,
Article 7 (in respect of claims for indemnification based on actions or omissions of the Indemnifying Party prior to
termination of this Agreement) and Article 8 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

 

(c)          Following
notice of termination of any Service (or expiration in accordance with applicable Schedule A or B or Article 3),
the parties agree to reasonably cooperate in providing for an orderly transition of such Service to the Recipient Entity or a successor
service provider; provided that any costs and expenses incurred in connection with such transition will be the responsibility
of the Recipient Entity.

 

(d)          Expiration
or termination of the Term shall not release any party hereto from any Liability or obligation that has accrued as of the effective
date of such expiration or termination and shall not constitute a waiver or release of, or otherwise be deemed to adversely affect,
any rights, remedies or claims which any party may have hereunder at Law, in equity or otherwise or which may arise out of or in
connection with such termination or expiration.

 

Article 7

Indemnification; Limitation on Liabilities

 

Section 7.01.     Indemnification.
(a) Each party, in its capacity as the Recipient Entity hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party,
in its capacity as Provider Entity hereunder, its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, agents, employees
or other Representatives (each, a “Provider Indemnified Person”) from and against any damages asserted against
or incurred by any Provider Indemnified Person (i) as a result of or arising out of any claim, action or proceeding by any
third party (a “Third Party Claim”) in connection with the Services supplied by any Provider Indemnified Person
under this Agreement or (ii) arising out of Recipient Entity’s breach of this Agreement; provided that the Recipient
Entity shall not be responsible for (A) any damages of any Provider Indemnified Person to the extent such damages or expenses
have resulted from any Provider Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (B) any damages for
which the Provider Entity is required to indemnify a Recipient Indemnified Person pursuant to Section 7.01(b).

 

(b)          Each
party, in its capacity as the Provider Entity hereunder, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the other party, in its capacity
as Recipient Entity hereunder, its Affiliates, and its and their respective directors, officers, agents, consultants, representatives
and/or employees or other Representatives (each, a “Recipient Indemnified Person”) from and against any damages
asserted against or incurred by any Recipient Indemnified Person as a result or arising out of the Services supplied by any Provider
Entity under this Agreement, but only to the extent such damages result from or arise out of any Provider Indemnified Person’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 

    	 	18	 

     

    

 

Section 7.02.     Indemnification
Procedures. The Provider Indemnified Person or Recipient Indemnified Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall
provide the party providing indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) with reasonably prompt notice concerning
the existence of the indemnifiable event; provided that failure to comply with the foregoing shall not constitute a waiver
of the right to indemnification and shall affect the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations only to the extent
that it is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay.

 

Section 7.03.     Calculation
of Damages. (a) The amount of any damages payable under Section 7.01(a) by the Indemnifying Party shall
be net of any (i) amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies or from any other Person
alleged to be responsible therefor and (ii) Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party in the taxable year of
the incurrence or payment of any such damages. Any such Tax benefit shall be reduced by any Tax costs incurred as a result of the
corresponding indemnity payment and calculated on a “with and without” basis. If the Indemnified Party receives any
amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any damages subsequent to an
indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party
for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up
to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party
in collecting such amount. Each Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under insurance
coverage, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible, for any damages payable under Section 7.01.

 

(b)          Each
Indemnified Party must use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate in accordance with applicable Law its damages for which
such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Agreement.

 

Section 7.04.     No
Representations. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Provider Entity makes any express or implied warranties
or guarantees with respect to the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, NO STATUTORY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL APPLY TO THE SERVICES.

 

Section 7.05.     Exclusivity.
Under no circumstances shall a Provider Indemnified Person be liable to a Recipient Entity, its Affiliates or any other Person
for any damages in connection with the provision of the Services, except for any damages to the extent attributable to a Provider
Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Section 7.01 will provide the exclusive remedy for
any breach of covenant or other agreement or other claim arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

against whom the waiver is to be effective.

 

(b)          No
failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall

of action arising out of, based upon, or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof, shall be

or written agreement or other communication). Delivery of a counterpart hereof by email attachment shall be an effective mode of

and the parties shall use all reasonable efforts to replace it in that respect with a valid and enforceable substitute term, provision,
covenant or restriction (as applicable), the effect of which is as close to its intended effect as possible; and (b) the remainder
of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way
