Form of Deferred Stock Unit Agreement; Notices of Deferred Stock Grants

 EXHIBIT 4.1 
 FORM OF 
 DEFERRED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 
 Pursuant to your Deferred Stock Unit Grant Notice (“Grant Notice”) and this Deferred Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”), Leucadia
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted you a conditional right to receive the number of shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) indicated in your Grant
Notice subject to the terms in the Grant Notice and this Agreement. 
 The details of your Award are as follows: 
 1. VESTING. Your Award is fully vested on the Date of Grant. 
 2. NUMBER OF SHARES; NO EXERCISE PRICE. The number of Shares of Common Stock subject to your Award is set forth in your Grant Notice and may be adjusted from time to time for Capitalization Adjustments, as provided in
Section 8 below. There is no exercise or purchase price for the Shares under this Award. 
 3. WHOLE SHARES. This Award shall be settled
in whole shares only. In the event that this Award is assumed by a successor or acquirer corporation following a Change of Control (as defined below), and this Award would be settled in fractional shares based on the exchange ratio for the stock of
the Company in the Change of Control, then the fractional share that you would have otherwise received shall be settled in cash by the successor or acquirer corporation. 
 4. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, you may not sell, assign or otherwise dispose of the Shares of Common Stock you receive under this Award unless the Shares of
Common Stock are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and any applicable state securities laws, or, if such Shares of Common Stock are not then so registered, the Company has determined that
such sale, assignment or other disposition would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
 5. TERM. The term of
your Award commences on the Date of Grant (as specified in your Grant Notice) and expires upon the Expiration Date (as specified in your Grant Notice). 
 6. SETTLEMENT OF AWARD. 
 (a) There is no exercise purchase price for the Award. This Award shall be settled
(and Shares of the Common Stock shall be distributed to you) on the distribution dates set forth in the Grant Notice. 
 (b) As a condition
for this Award, you agree that the Company may require you 

 to enter into an arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the
Company arising by reason of (1) the receipt of Shares of Common Stock, (2) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the Shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise or (3) the disposition of Shares of
Common Stock acquired under this Award. 
 (c) The grant and settlement of this Award (and distribution of Shares of Common Stock) to you are
subject to the approval of the grant of this Award to you which satisfies the requirements for stockholder approval under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. If such stockholder approval is not obtained then this Award shall become void
and unenforceable in the event of a Change of Control (as defined below). 
 7. TRANSFERABILITY. This Award is not transferable, except by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party who, in the event of your death, shall thereafter be
entitled to receive the Shares of Common Stock under this Award. 
 8. CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS. If any change is made in the Common Stock
subject to this Award without the receipt of consideration by the Company (through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, stock dividend, dividend in property other than cash, stock split, liquidating dividend,
combination of Shares, exchange of Shares, change in corporate structure or other transaction not involving the receipt of consideration by the Company), this Award will be appropriately adjusted in the class(es) and number of Shares and price per
share of stock subject to this Award. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Company. (The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a transaction “without receipt of
consideration” by the Company.) 
 9. CHANGE OF CONTROL. 
 (a) Upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control” (as defined below) then to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, any surviving or acquiring corporation shall assume this Award or may substitute a
similar deferred stock unit award (including a right to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the transaction that results in a Change of Control) for this Award and may do so without your consent. The terms that apply under
this Agreement shall also continue to apply under the substituted deferred stock unit award granted by the acquirer or successor corporation. In the event any surviving or acquiring corporation does not assume this Award or substitute a similar
deferred stock unit award for this Award, this Award shall be settled in cash by the Company. 
 (b) As a condition for this Award, you agree
that Dr. Thomas H. Adams shall be your representative in connection with any Change of Control of the Company, and shall be authorized to act on your behalf, with regard to any rights you may have as a stockholder of the Company (or its
acquirer or successor corporation) and any rights and payments under the agreement for the Change of Control. 

 (c) For purposes of this Award, a “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred upon the
effectiveness of (i) a sale of at least 85% of the Common Stock of the Company (except for any sale to a current affiliate of the Company), (ii) a dissolution, liquidation, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company,
(iii) a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or (iv) a reverse merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation but the Shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding immediately
preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise. 
 10.
AWARD NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT. The Grant Notice and this Agreement are each not an employment or service contract, and nothing in the Grant Notice or this Agreement or your Award shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your
part to continue in the employ of the Company or an affiliate, or of the Company or an affiliate to continue your employment. In addition, nothing in your Award shall obligate the Company or an affiliate, their respective stockholders, Boards of
Directors, officers or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a director or consultant for the Company or an affiliate. 
 11. NO ACCELERATION OR POSTPONEMENT OF SETTLEMENT. Neither you nor the Company shall have the power to accelerate or postpone the time of settlement and distribution of the Shares of the Common Stock under Grant Notice or this Stock Award
Agreement. 
 12. STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS. You shall not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to,
any Shares of Common Stock subject to this Award until you have received Shares of the Common Stock. 
 13. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. At the
time you receive Shares of the Common Stock under your Award, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you any sums required to satisfy
the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or an affiliate of the Company, if any, which arise in connection with your Award. 
 14. NOTICES. Any notices provided for in your Award shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days
after deposit in this Awarded States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company. 
 15. CHOICE
OF LAW. This Award shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State. 
 16. GOVERNING AUTHORITY. This Award is subject to all interpretations, 

 amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted by the Company in good faith.
This authority shall be exercised by the Board, or by a committee of one or more members of the Board in the event that the Board delegates its authority to a committee. 
 17. AMENDMENT OF GRANT. The Company (or its successor or acquirer) at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of this Award; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the rights under this Award shall not be impaired by
any such amendment unless (i) the Company requests your consent and (ii) you consent in writing.

at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum.

commercially reasonable efforts to defend such Allocation in any audit or similar proceeding. Sellers, jointly and severally (on behalf of each Seller Corporation), and Purchaser acknowledge that each of the Section 2.9(i) Allocation and the

Life Insurance Plan as of the date hereof. The Purchaser shall establish or cause to be established a post-retirement health and life insurance plan (“Purchaser Post-Retirement Health and Life Insurance Plan”) providing for

Closing Date occurs to such Transferred Employees exceed the aggregate accumulated contributions to such accounts for such year by such employees, Purchaser shall cause such excess to be transferred to Seller as soon as practicable following the
Closing Date. Purchaser or its Affiliates shall cause such amounts to be credited to each such Transferred Employees’ corresponding accounts under the Purchaser Cafeteria Plan in which such employees participate following the Closing Date. On

via Transfer Regulations. With respect to any EU Business Employees, the parties to this Agreement agree that the purchase of the Business of any EU Asset Selling Corporation pursuant to this Agreement and any relevant Local Implementing
Agreement will constitute a “relevant transfer” for the purposes of the Transfer Regulations and, accordingly, Purchaser or any relevant Affiliate of Purchaser shall employ each such EU Business Employee with effect from the Closing Date

employment provided to the EU Business Employees immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) the terms and conditions of employment provided to similarly situated employees of Purchaser and its Affiliates. 
 (b) Indemnity. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless each Seller and its Affiliates from any and all claims, actions, causes of action,
judgments, awards, Liabilities, losses, costs or damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding lost profits, lost revenues, lost opportunities and consequential, punitive and other special damages regardless of the
legal theory) (collectively, a “Loss” or, the “Losses”) incurred after the Closing Date as a result of, arising out of, or in connection with (i) the EU Business Employees before the Closing Date in respect of
any breach of the information and consultation provisions of the Transfer Regulations by Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser; (ii) any claim by an EU Business Employee (whether or not such EU Business Employee resigns and/or objects to
becoming employed by Purchaser under the Transfer Regulations) that any EU Asset Selling Corporation is in breach of contract and/or in breach of any statutory employment rights because of any plans of Purchaser (or any relevant Affiliate of
Purchaser) to change any terms and conditions of employment or working conditions of any EU Business Employee after the Closing Date; and (iii) the EU Business Employees on and after the Closing Date. 
  

 -49- 

 (c) Non-Transfer of EU Business Employees. If the contract of employment of any EU Business
Employee is found (or alleged) not to have effect after the Closing Date as if originally made with Purchaser, Purchaser agrees that (i) in consultation with Sellers, it will within seven (7) days of being informed of such finding or
allegation make to the relevant EU Business Employee an offer in writing to employ him or her under a new contract of employment to take effect on the termination referred to below; and (ii) any such offer made by Purchaser will be on terms and
conditions which when taken as a whole do not differ in any material way from the terms and conditions of employment of that EU Business Employee immediately before the Closing Date (save as to the identity of the employer). Upon that offer being
made (or at any time after the offer should have been made if no offer is made) the relevant EU Asset Selling Corporation shall terminate the employment of the relevant EU Business Employee, and Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers
and its Affiliates from any Losses arising directly or indirectly out of the employment of that EU Business Employee from the Closing Date until such termination and the termination of such employment.

management matters relating to the Business (including the collection and transfer of accounts receivable and disbursement of funds by Sellers) in accordance with their respective practices in effect as of the date of this Agreement, except as may
be affected by actions taken pursuant to Section 2.4(b) and as may be necessary to settle intercompany payables and receivables and to effect intercompany funding. After the Closing Date, Purchaser shall take all actions (or shall cause its
Affiliates to take all actions) reasonably requested by Sellers to effect the provisions of this Section 5.7. Any action taken pursuant to this Section 5.7 after the Closing Date shall, subject to applicable Law, be deemed for the purposes
of Section 2.9 to have occurred on the Closing Date.

Seller other than such marks as may have been owned and used solely by the Purchased Divisions (collectively,
“Seller’s Marks”), nor shall any of them challenge or assist any third party in opposing the rights of either Seller or any Affiliate of Seller anywhere in the world in any such Intellectual Property. For the avoidance of
doubt, in no event shall any of the Transferred Intellectual Property be deemed to constitute Intellectual Property that includes, is identical to, or is confusingly similar to, any of the Seller’s Marks. All contracts or agreements between
either Seller or any Affiliate of either Seller on the one hand and any of the Purchased Divisions on the other relating to the use of the name “TYCO,” “TYCOM,” “TGN” or any derivatives thereof, or anything confusingly
similar thereto, including all name protection and license agreements, shall immediately terminate as of the Closing Date. Purchaser shall ensure that immediately following the Closing Date any materials bearing the Seller’s Marks are either
destroyed or otherwise permanently altered so that the former use of Sellers Marks is entirely unrecognizable and undetectable. Furthermore, Purchaser shall ensure that immediately following the Closing Date, any hypertext links to Internet websites

reasonable efforts to obtain a release of the applicable Asset Selling Corporation and its Affiliates from the liabilities and obligations set forth on Schedule 5.13(a) hereof (the “Parent Guarantees”) effective as of the Closing, and to the extent requested or required, by the beneficiary of each such Parent Guarantee in
connection with the termination thereof, the Purchaser shall provide a substitute guarantee or such other form of assurance as may be reasonably requested by the beneficiary of each such Parent Guarantee. The parties agree that neither Sellers, nor
the Purchaser nor any of their respective Affiliates (except as provided in the immediately proceeding sentence), shall be required to expend any money or provide any other form of an accommodation to the beneficiary of any such Parent Guarantee in
connection with their compliance with this Section 5.13. 
 (b) To the extent Sellers and Purchaser are unable to terminate, replace or

foregoing, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and each of their Affiliates for any and all Losses incurred by them in respect of any such Parent Guarantee maintained in place after the Closing Date. 
 (c) It is expressly understood and agreed that the indemnification provision contained in this Section 5.13 is in addition to, and not limited in

portion of the Purchased Assets or a substantial portion of the assets of the Conveyed Companies, or any other comparable transaction (any of the foregoing, a “Competing Transaction”), (ii) in connection with a Competing

successor during such period.

Affiliates may also use such materials for the sole purpose of operating their respective businesses in the ordinary course. If a Seller or any of its Affiliates are legally required to disclose any of the foregoing materials (whether by deposition,
interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process), Sellers shall, or shall cause such Affiliate, to provide Purchaser with written notice of such request so that Purchaser may seek an appropriate
protective order or other appropriate remedy. If such protective order or remedy is not obtained, Seller or such Affiliate, may disclose only that portion of the foregoing materials which such Person is legally required to disclose, and Sellers

portion of a Straddle Period up to and including the Closing Date will be determined based upon an interim closing of the books of a Conveyed Company as of 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date based upon Tax accounting methods, practices, and procedures
last used by such Conveyed Company in preparing its Income Tax Returns. 
 (c) As to any Tax other than an Income Tax or a Transfer Tax for

to any period with respect to which Sellers are liable for Taxes pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 8.4(c) or in any other provision of this Agreement shall require Purchaser or
any of its relevant Affiliates to carry back any item of loss, deduction, or credit with respect to the Conveyed Companies or Purchased Assets arising from the operation of. the Conveyed Companies or the Purchased Assets for periods following the
Closing Date. 
 (d) Purchaser agrees that, with respect to each of the Conveyed Companies and any successor thereto: 
 (i) except as provided in Section 8.7(d), neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates or any successor thereto will file any Claim
for refund of Taxes with respect to (a) any period ending on or before the Closing Date, or (b) in the case of a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing date; 
 (ii) Purchaser, its Affiliates, and any successor thereto must make any election available to them to waive the right to claim in any
period ending on or before the Closing Date any carry back with respect to Taxes arising in (a) any period beginning after the Closing Date, or (b) in the case of a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the
Closing Date; 
 (iii) Purchaser, its Affiliates, and any successor thereto will refrain from making any affirmative election
to claim (a) in any period ending on or before the Closing Date, or (b) in the case of a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, any carry back with respect to a Tax arising in (x) any period
beginning after the Closing Date, except for any carrybacks required by applicable Law to occur prior to any carry forward into post-Closing Tax periods, or (y) in the case of a Straddle Period, the portion of such Straddle Period beginning
after the Closing Date; and 
 (iv) Unless otherwise mandated by Law, Governmental Order or other applicable requirements of
any Governmental Authority, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates or any successor thereto will file any amended Tax Return with respect to (a) any period ending on or before the Closing Date, or (b) in the case of a Straddle Period,
the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing date. 
 Section 8.5 Tax Contests. (a) Any Seller, on the one
hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall provide prompt notice to the other of any pending or threatened Contest of which it becomes aware related to Taxes for any period for which it is indemnified by the other party hereunder. Such notice
shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents it has received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such
matters. If a party hereto has knowledge of an asserted Tax liability with respect to a matter for which it is to be indemnified under Section 8.6 hereof and such party fails to give the indemnifying party prompt notice of such asserted Tax
liability, then (i) if the indemnifying party is precluded from contesting the asserted Tax liability in any forum as a result of the failure to give prompt notice, the indemnifying party shall have no obligation to indemnify the indemnified
party for any Taxes arising out of such asserted Tax liability, and (ii) if the indemnifying party is not precluded from contesting such asserted Tax liability in any forum, but such failure to give prompt notice results in a monetary detriment
to the indemnifying party, then any amount that the indemnifying party is otherwise required to pay the indemnified party pursuant to Section 8.6 hereof shall be reduced by the amount of such detriment. 
  

 -59- 

 (b) Sellers shall have the right to represent a Conveyed Company’s interests in any Contest relating
to a Tax matter arising with respect to a Pre-Closing Period to the extent such Contest is in connection with any Taxes for which Sellers may be liable pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, to employ counsel of their choice at their expense and to
control the conduct of such Contest, including settlement or other disposition thereof; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have the right to consult with Sellers regarding any such Contest that may affect a Conveyed Company for
any periods ending after the Closing Date at Purchaser’s own. expense; and provided, further, that any settlement or other disposition of any such Contest may only be made with the consent of Purchaser, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that to the extent that Purchaser unreasonably withholds consent, Sellers’ obligation under Section 8.6(b) of this Agreement to indemnify Purchaser for such Tax shall terminate
and Purchaser shall reimburse Sellers for the reasonably incurred costs of the Contest. As with all other disputes under this Agreement, it is understood by the parties that any disputes arising under this Section 8.5(b), including, but not
limited to, disputes regarding consent being unreasonably withheld, shall constitute disputes regarding matters in this Article VIII that require the agreement of the parties within the meaning of Section 8.10 of this Agreement and, therefore,
shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.10 of this Agreement. 
 (c) Purchaser shall have the right to control the conduct of any
Contest relating to a Tax matter of a Conveyed Company arising with respect to a period ending after the Closing Date and of any Contest in respect of which Sellers have not elected to represent the interests of a Conveyed Company pursuant to
Section 8.5(b); provided, however, that Sellers shall have the right, at Sellers’ own expense, to consult with Purchaser regarding any such Contest that may affect a Conveyed Company for any Pre-Closing Period or for any
portion of a Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date; and provided, further, that any settlement or other disposition of any such Contest that may affect a Conveyed Company for any Pre-Closing Periods or any portion of a Straddle
Period ending on the Closing Date may only be made with the consent of Sellers’, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. In the case of a Contest with respect to a Straddle Period, to the extent that Sellers unreasonably withhold
consent, Purchaser’s obligation under Section 8.6(c) of this Agreement to indemnify Sellers for any Tax with respect to such period shall terminate and Sellers shall reimburse Purchaser for the reasonably incurred costs of the Contest. As
with all other disputes under this Agreement, it is understood by the parties that any disputes arising under this Section 8.5(c), including, but not limited to, disputes regarding consent being unreasonably withheld, shall constitute disputes
regarding matters in this Article VIII that require the agreement of the parties within the meaning of Section 8.10 of this Agreement and, therefore, shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.10 of this Agreement. 
 (d) Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other, 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, without limitation working papers and schedules), officers or employees (without substantial interruption of employment) or other relevant information necessary or useful in connection with any Contest

 -60- 

 (e) Where there is a dispute with a Taxing Authority regarding liability for Tax for a Pre-Closing Period
and for which Sellers have an indemnification obligation, Purchaser shall, or shall cause the appropriate Conveyed Company to, as the case may be, at the request of Sellers, pay the amount of the disputed Tax to the Taxing Authority, and Purchaser
or the Conveyed Company shall be reimbursed by Sellers within a period not to exceed ten (10) Business Days from the date of such payment and otherwise in a manner to be agreed upon by the parties at such time as Sellers makes such request.

 Section 8.6 Indemnification. (a) The indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 8.6 are the exclusive
remedy for obligations of the parties arising under this Agreement and relating to Taxes and Article IX of this Agreement shall not apply to such obligations, other than the survival provisions set forth in Section 9.5 and the applicable loss
limitation provisions of Section 9.6. 
 (b) Sellers shall be liable for, and covenant and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the
Purchaser and its Affiliates from and against, any and all liabilities incurred by Purchaser or its Affiliates: 
 (i) by
reason of a breach of the representations contained in Section 3.16 hereof; 
 (ii) by reason of a breach by Sellers of
any covenant contained in Article VIII hereof; or 
 (iii) for Taxes for which Sellers bear responsibility pursuant to
Section 8.1 hereof. 
 (c) Purchaser shall be liable for, and covenant and agree to indemnify and hold harmless Sellers and its
Affiliates from and against any and all liabilities incurred by any of Sellers or their Affiliates: 
 (i) by reason of a
breach by Purchaser or Purchaser Parent of any covenant contained in Article VIII hereof; or 
 (ii) for Taxes for which
Purchaser and Purchaser Parent bear responsibility pursuant to Section 8.2 of this Agreement. 
  

 -61- 

 (d) If a party (the “Tax Indemnified Party”) determines that it or any of its Affiliates
is or may be entitled to indemnification by another party (the “Tax Indemnifying Party”) under Section 8.6(b) or 8.6(c) hereof, the Tax Indemnified Party will promptly deliver to the Tax Indemnifying Party a written notice and
demand therefor (the “Tax Notice”) specifying the basis for indemnification and, if known, the amount for which the Tax Indemnified Party reasonably believes it or any of its Affiliates is entitled to be indemnified (a “Tax
Claim”). The Tax Notice must be received by the Tax Indemnifying Party no later than thirty (30) days before the expiration of the applicable Tax statute of limitations; provided, however, that if the Tax Indemnified
Party does not receive notice from the applicable Taxing Authority (“Taxing Authority Notice”) that an item exists that could give rise to a Tax Claim more than thirty (30) days before the expiration of the applicable Tax
statute of limitations, then the Tax Notice must be received by the Tax Indemnifying Party as promptly as practicable after the Tax Indemnified Party receives the Taxing Authority Notice (but in no event more than five (5) days after the Tax
Indemnified Party receives the Taxing Authority Notice). If the Tax Indemnifying Party objects to the Tax Claim in the manner set forth in Section 8.6(e) hereof or if either the Tax Indemnifying Party or the Tax Indemnified Party exercise
Contest rights as contemplated by Section 8.5(b), then the Tax Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to make an indemnification payment to the Tax Indemnified Party until there is a determination by the Accountant or a Final Determination
regarding the Tax Claim, as the case may be. In all other cases, the Tax Indemnifying Party will pay the Tax Indemnified Party the amount set forth in the Tax Notice, in cash or other immediately available funds, within thirty (30) days after
receipt of the Tax Notice; provided, however, that if the amount for which the Tax Indemnified Party reasonably believes it is entitled to be indemnified is not known at the time of the Tax Notice, the Tax Indemnifying Party shall pay
the amount known to be due and the Tax Indemnified Party will deliver to the Tax Indemnifying Party a further Tax Notice specifying the unknown amount as soon as reasonably practicable after such amount is known and payment will then be made as set
forth above. 
 (e) The Tax Indemnifying Party may object to the Tax Claim (or the amount thereof) set forth in any Tax Notice by giving the
Indemnified Party, within thirty (30) days following receipt of such Tax Notice, written notice setting forth the Tax Indemnifying Party’s grounds for so objecting (the “Tax Objection Notice”). If the Tax Indemnifying
Party does not give the Tax Indemnified Party the Tax Objection Notice within such thirty (30) day period, the Tax Indemnified Party may exercise any and all of its rights under applicable Law and this Agreement to collect such amount.

 (f) Adjustment of Claims. 
 (i) The amount of a Tax Claim shall be the amount of Taxes payable by the Tax Indemnified Party net of any actual benefit (or any reasonably determined and reasonably documented anticipated benefit) to the Tax
Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates attributable to any Tax item resulting from the facts underlying such Tax Claim (a “Tax Benefit”). 
 (ii) As set out in Section 8.13, it is understood and agreed by the parties hereto that any payments made pursuant this Article VIII
are intended to be treated as adjustments to Asset Purchase Price or Share Purchase Price, as applicable. However, in the event that a reimbursement of Tax made pursuant this Article VIII is subjected to Tax by a Taxing Authority, other than amounts
recharacterized as interest by such Taxing Authority (“Tax Detriment”), then the amount of a Claim shall be increased by an amount such that the Tax Indemnified Party, on a net after-tax basis (giving due regard to Tax credits and
deductions to which the Tax Indemnified Party is entitled arising from such Tax Claim), receives an amount equal to the amount of the Tax Claim; provided, however, that this Section 8.6(f)(ii) shall not apply to interest paid to
an Tax Indemnified Party by reason of Section 8.11 hereof. 
  

 -62- 

 (g) If the Tax Indemnified Party and the Tax Indemnifying Party are unable to settle any dispute
regarding a Tax Claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Tax Objection Notice, the Tax Indemnified Party and the Tax Indemnifying Party will, in accordance with Section 8.10, jointly request the Accountant to resolve the dispute
as promptly as possible. 
 (h) Failure by the Tax Indemnified Party to promptly deliver to the Tax Indemnifying Party a Tax Notice in
accordance with Section 8.6(d) hereof will not relieve the Tax Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent the Tax Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. 
 (i) Each of the parties hereto, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, agrees not to bring any actions or proceedings, at law, in equity or otherwise,
against any other party or its Affiliates, in respect of any breaches or alleged breaches of any representation, warranty or other provision of this Article VIII, except pursuant to and subject to the express provisions of this Section 8.6.

 Section 8.7 Refunds. (a) Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, hold in trust for the benefit of Sellers all
refunds (including interest paid thereon by a Governmental Authority and any amounts applied against a Tax liability for other taxable periods) of any Taxes for which Purchaser is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement
(“Sellers’ Refunds”), and, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates of any such Sellers’ Refund, Purchaser or its Affiliate, as applicable, shall pay over to Sellers the amount
of such Sellers’ Refund without right of set off or counterclaim. 
 (b) Sellers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, hold in
trust for the benefit of Purchaser and its Affiliates all refunds (including interest paid thereon by a Governmental Authority and any amounts applied against a Tax Liability for other taxable periods) of any Taxes for which Sellers are entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement (“Purchaser’s Refunds”) and, within five (5) Business Days of receipt by Sellers or any of their Affiliates of any such Purchaser’s Refund, Sellers or and their Affiliate, as
applicable, shall pay over to Purchaser the amount of Purchaser’s Refund without right of set off or counterclaim. 
 (c) Upon the
request of Sellers, Purchaser will file, or cause a Conveyed Company or its Affiliate to file, claims for Sellers’ Refunds, in such form as Sellers may reasonably request; provided, however, that the filing of any such claim will
not result in any prejudice to Purchaser or its Affiliates. Sellers will have the sole right to prosecute any claims for Sellers’ Refunds (by suit or otherwise) at Sellers’ expense and with counsel of Sellers’ choice. Purchaser will
cooperate, and cause the appropriate Conveyed Company or Affiliate to cooperate, fully, at Sellers’ expense, with Sellers and their counsel in connection therewith. 
 (d) Upon the request of Purchaser, Sellers shall and shall cause their Affiliates to file, claims for Purchaser’s Refunds, in such form as Purchaser may reasonably request; provided, however, that
the filing of any such claim will not result in any prejudice to Sellers or their Affiliates. Purchaser will have the sole right to prosecute any claims for Purchasers’ Refunds (by suit or otherwise) at Purchaser’s expense and with counsel
of Purchaser’s choice. Sellers will cooperate, and cause their Affiliates to cooperate, fully, at Purchaser’s expense, with Purchaser and its counsel in connection therewith. 
  

 -63- 

 (e) Except as provided in Sections 8.7(a) and 8.7(b) hereof, any refunds, of Taxes other than
Sellers’ Refunds and Purchaser’s Refunds will be the property of the payee of such refunds and no other party to this Agreement or its Affiliates will have any right to such refunds. 
 (f) To the extent reasonably requested by a Seller, and within (30) days of such request, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall grant to such Seller
appropriate powers of attorney as may reasonably be necessary to prosecute or defend its rights hereunder. 
 Section 8.8 Assistance
and Cooperation. (a) After the Closing Date, Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate) with each other and with each other’s agents, including accounting firms and legal counsel,
in connection with Tax matters relating to the Conveyed Companies and the Purchased Assets, including (i) the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, (ii) determining the liability for and amount of any Taxes due or the right to and amount
of any refund of Taxes, (iii) examinations of Tax Returns, and (iv) any administrative or judicial proceedings in respect of Taxes assessed or proposed to be assessed. Such cooperation shall include making all information and documents in
their possession related to the Business available to the other, as provided in Section 8.9 hereof. Sellers and Purchaser also shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) make available to the other, as reasonably requested and
available, personnel responsible for preparing, maintaining, and interpreting information and documents relevant to Taxes. Any information or documents provided under this Section 8.8 shall be kept confidential by the party receiving the
information or documents, except as may otherwise be necessary in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or in connection with any administrative or judicial proceedings relating to Taxes. 
 (b) After the Closing Date, in the event that any Conveyed Company intends to file any report of its financial data to any Governmental Authority
(including without limitation the statutory accounts prepared by Tyco Networks (Germany) GmbH) with respect to a fiscal or accounting period during any portion of which a Seller or any of its Affiliates owned an interest in such Conveyed Company,
Purchaser shall cause the applicable officers, directors, employees and agents of such Conveyed Company to (i) make available to Sellers a copy of such report no later than the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to the due date of such report and (ii) incorporate all good faith comments of Sellers to such report to the extent relating to
the time period when such Seller or any of its Affiliates owned an interest in such Conveyed Company. 
 Section 8.9 Tax Records.
Tax records in possession of Sellers (other than those included in the Excluded Assets) and/or the Stock Selling Corporations relating to the Conveyed Companies shall be transferred to Purchaser. Sellers may make and retain copies of such Tax
records. Sellers, Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates shall make available to each other for inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax records in their possession relating to the Conveyed Subsidiaries
and the Purchased Assets to the extent reasonably required by the other party in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns, audits, litigations, or the resolution of items under this Article VIII. Sellers, Purchaser, and their respective
Affiliates shall preserve and keep such Tax records in their possession until the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitation and as otherwise required by Law, but in any event for a period of not less than seven (7) years after the

 -64- 

 Section. 8.10 Dispute Resolution. If Sellers and Purchaser fail to agree on the resolution of any
of the matters in this Article VIII that require the agreement of the parties, then such matter shall be referred to the Accountant for binding arbitration. Sellers and Purchaser shall mutually agree on an accounting firm that is unrelated to any
party to this Agreement to act as the Accountant. In the event that Sellers and Purchaser cannot agree on an accounting firm to act as the Accountant, Sellers and Purchaser each shall select an accounting firm, and the two (2) selected
accounting firms shall mutually select a third accounting firm, unrelated to any party to this Agreement, to act as the Accountant. The choice of an Accountant by the two (2) accounting firms pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be binding
on the parties hereto. Within thirty (30) days of the selection of the Accountant, Sellers and Purchaser shall deliver to the Accountant copies of any schedules or documentation which may reasonably be required by the Accountant to make its
determination. Each of Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers on the other, shall be entitled to submit to the Accountant a memorandum of not more than ten (10) pages setting forth its position with respect to such arbitration. The Accountant
shall render a determination within sixty (60) days of its selection. Sellers or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall pay to the other party the amount determined by the Accountant within thirty (30) days of the date on which the
Accountant makes its determination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 8.10, the Accountant may, at its sole discretion, amend the procedures contained herein. The determination of the Accountant shall be final and binding on all
parties. The costs incurred in retaining the Accountant shall be shared equally, fifty percent (50%) by Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by the Purchaser. 
 Section 8.11 Payment. All amounts required to be paid to a party under this Article VIII shall be paid in Dollars and translated from local currency at the spot rate. If a party (the
“Payor”) fails to make a payment due and owing under this Article VIII to the other party or any of its Affiliates (the “Payee”) within thirty (30) days of the date prescribed by this Article VIII, the Payor
will pay to the Payee interest (such interest to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed) on such payment from and including the date on which such payment was due, but excluding the day the Payor makes
such payment, at a rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum. In the event that any payment under this Article VIII is subject to withholding tax, the Payor shall withhold such Tax and pay such Tax over to the appropriate Taxing Authority and
shall pay the Payee such additional amounts as are necessary so that the net amount received by the Payee after deduction of withholding Tax with respect to such payment and with respect to such additional amounts is equal to the amount that would
have been received if no such withholding had been made. Such additional amounts shall be reduced by the amount of any Tax benefit to the Payee from the payment of such withholding Tax. 
 Section 8.12 Termination of Tax Allocation Agreements. Immediately prior to the close of business on the Closing Date, (i) all Tax
allocation or sharing agreements or arrangements existing between any of Sellers and the Stock Selling Corporations, on the one hand, and any of the Conveyed Companies, on the other hand, shall be terminated; and (ii) amounts due under such
agreements or arrangements shall be settled as of the Closing Date in such manner as Sellers shall determine (including capitalization or distribution of amounts due or receivable under such agreements or arrangements). Upon such termination and
settlement, no further payments by or to the Conveyed Companies with respect to such agreements or arrangements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements or arrangements between the Conveyed Companies and
others shall cease at such time. 
  

 -65- 

 Section 8.13 Adjustment. All amounts paid, or caused to be paid, by one party or its
Affiliates to another party or its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement (other than interest in accordance with Section 8.11 hereof) shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Asset Purchase Price or Share Purchase Price, as
applicable, to the extent permitted by Law. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 INDEMNIFICATION 
 Section 9.1 Indemnification by Sellers. (a) Subject to the
provisions of this Article IX, Sellers, jointly and severally, agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser from and against any and all Losses arising out of, resulting from or relating to (i) any Retained Liability, (ii) any
breach by any Seller or Seller Corporation of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement (other than covenants contained in Article VIII, which are addressed by Article VIII exclusively), (iii) the failure of any
representation or warranty made by Sellers in this Agreement (other than Section 3.16, relating to Taxes, which is addressed by Article VIII exclusively) to be true and correct on the Closing Date with the same effect as though such
representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to a date prior to the Closing Date (in which case such representations shall be true and correct on and
as of such earlier date), (iv) Purchaser’s waiver of any applicable bulk sales or bulk transfer Laws or similar Laws, or (v) any Liability of any Conveyed Company in connection with any criminal conduct of such Conveyed Company or any
of its respective Business Employees occurring prior to the Closing.

commercially reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto. 
 Section 9.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Article IX, Purchaser agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Sellers from and against any and all Loss arising
out of, resulting from or relating to (i) any Assumed Liability (other than any Assumed Liability resulting from the breach by Sellers of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement), (ii) any breach by Purchaser of any of
its covenants or agreements in this Agreement, (iii) the failure of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement to be true and correct on the Closing Date with the same effect as though such representations and warranties
had been made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to a date prior to the Closing Date (in which case such representations shall be true and correct on and as of such earlier date), or
(iv) events occurring on or after the Closing Date in connection with the Business, the Purchased Assets, or the Shares including (x) the use, ownership, possession, operation or occupancy of any Network Facility, Leased Real Property or
Real Property, the Intellectual Property of the Business, the Purchased Assets, or the Shares from and after the Closing Date and (y) Purchaser’s failure to obtain any consent necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby. 
  

 -66- 

 (b) Sellers acknowledge and agree that Purchaser shall not have any liability to Sellers or any of their
respective Affiliates under any provision of this Agreement for any Loss to the extent that such Loss relates exclusively to any Retained Liability. Each Seller shall take and cause its Affiliates to take all commercially reasonable steps to
mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or does, give rise thereto. 
 Section 9.3
Indemnification Procedure. (a) Promptly after obtaining actual knowledge of any Losses by any Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to Sections 5.5(b), 9.1 or 9.2 hereof (an “Indemnified Party”), including, any
claim by a third party described in Section 9.4, which might give rise to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) a certificate
(the “Certificate”), which Certificate shall: 
 (i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or anticipates
it will incur liability for Losses for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and 
 (ii) specify in reasonable detail the Losses to which such Certificate relates, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is
related. 
 The Indemnified Party shall thereafter provide to the Indemnifying Party such information related to the Losses claimed in such Certificate as
the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request for purposes of fulfilling the Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Article IX, as provided in Section 9.4(b). The failure by the Indemnified Party to promptly deliver a Certificate
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations under this Article IX, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay. 
 (b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall object to the indemnification of an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim or claims specified in
any Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall, within forty-five (45) days after receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such Certificate, deliver to the Indemnified Party a notice to such effect, specifying in reasonable detail the basis for such
objection, and the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall, within the sixty (60) day period beginning on the date of receipt by the Indemnified Party of such objection, attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the
respective parties with respect to each of such claims to which the Indemnifying Party shall have so objected. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall succeed in reaching agreement on their respective rights with respect to any of
such claims, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly prepare and sign a memorandum setting forth such agreement. Should the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party be unable to agree as to any particular item or items or
amount or amounts within such time period, then the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction as set forth in Section 11.10. During the period of any such dispute, the
Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to take the actions which the Indemnifying Party would have had the right to take in connection with the performance of its indemnification obligations hereunder. 
  

 -67- 

 (c) Claims for Losses specified in any Certificate to which an Indemnifying Party shall not object in
writing within forty-five (45) days of receipt of such Certificate, claims for Losses covered by a memorandum of agreement of the nature described in Section 9.3 (b), and claims for Losses the validity and amount of which have been the
subject of judicial determination as described in Section 9.3(b) or shall have been settled with the consent of the Indemnifying Party, as described in Section 9.4, are hereinafter referred to, collectively, as “Agreed
Claims”. Within ten (10) Business Days of the determination of the amount of any Agreed Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Agreed Claim by wire transfer in immediately available
funds to the bank account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party in a notice to the Indemnifying Party not less than two (2) Business Days prior to such payment. 
 Section 9.4 Third-Party Claims. (a) If a claim by a third party is made against any Indemnified Party with respect to which the
Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification hereunder for any Loss under this Article IX (other than a claim with respect to Taxes, the procedures for which are covered exclusively in Section 8.6), the Indemnified Party shall promptly
notify the Indemnifying Party of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to conduct and control, through counsel of its choosing, any third party claim, action, suit or proceeding (a “Third-Party
Claim”), and the Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle the same; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party advance notice of any proposed compromise or settlement and shall not
compromise or settle any claim without the Indemnified Party’s written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such settlement relates solely to money damages, includes a full release of the Indemnified Party
and does not commit the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear from taking, any action. No Indemnified Party may compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim for which it is seeking indemnification hereunder without the written consent of the
Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The Indemnifying Party shall permit the Indemnified Party to participate in, but not control, the defense of any such action or suit through counsel chosen by
the Indemnified Party, provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to control or conduct the defense or prosecution of a Third-Party Claim,

Seller shall have any indemnification obligations for misrepresentation or breach of warranty under Section 9.1(a)(iii) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses suffered by Purchaser under Section 9.1(a)(iii) for which Purchaser
would be entitled to indemnification exceeds $5,000,000 (the “Purchaser Threshold”), whereupon, provided the other requirements of this Article IX have been complied with, Sellers shall indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless for
Losses in excess of $1,000,000 as herein provided; except that: (i) Purchaser shall not have any right to indemnification with respect to any individual Loss arising from a misrepresentation or breach of warranty that is less than $35,000;
(ii) no such Loss shall be taken into account in determining whether, or to what extent to which, the Purchaser Threshold has been met or exceeded; and (iii) the aggregate amount of Losses recoverable under Section 9.1(a)(iii) by Purchaser
shall be limited to $26,000,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations for indemnification contained in this Section 9.6 shall not apply to Losses which arise from a breach of representations and warranties
(x) contained in Sections 3.2 (Corporate Authority; Binding Effect), 3.3 (Conveyed Companies; Capital Structure), and 3,16 (Taxes), or (y) contained in this Agreement if such Losses have been finally adjudicated to have arisen directly
from the pre-Closing willful misconduct or fraudulent acts of any Business Employee, Seller Corporation or Conveyed Company (it being understood that to the extent any such Losses resulted from the continuing willful misconduct or fraudulent acts
after the Closing, the Sellers’ indemnification obligation under this Section 9.6(a)(y) shall be limited to the Losses allocable to the pre-Closing period willful misconduct or fraudulent acts); and provided, further, that
Sellers shall in no event have any obligation to Purchaser with respect to aggregate Losses recoverable by Purchaser as provided in the immediately preceding proviso under Section 9.1 (a) or Article VIII in excess of the Aggregate Purchase

indemnification exceeds $1,300,000 (the “Seller Threshold”), whereupon, provided the other requirements of this Article IX have been complied with, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Sellers for Losses as herein provided;
except that the aggregate amount of Losses recoverable under Section 9.2(a)(iii) by Sellers shall be limited to $26,000,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations for indemnification contained in this Section 9.6 shall
not apply to Losses which arise from a breach of representations and warranties contained’ in Section 4.2 (Corporate Authority) or Section 12.1(c); and provided, further, that Purchaser shall in no event have any

Party will then be responsible for pursuing such claim at its own expense. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of Sellers and Purchaser agree to, and to cause their Affiliates to, in their capacities as Indemnified Persons (x) in good faith,
diligently seek recovery, at its or their own expense, of all such proceeds from Collateral Sources with respect to all Losses with respect to which it or they make a claim for indemnification under this Article IX and (b) keep the Indemnifying

amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay
pursuant to this Article IX had such determination been made at the time of such payment, and any excess recovery from a Collateral Source shall be paid over to the Indemnified Party.

hereby (other than the consents set forth on Schedule 4.4).

no such amendment shall (x) relieve Sellers of any of their obligations, if any, with respect to the accuracy of their representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement or of Sellers’ obligations to comply with their covenants and
other agreements applicable to them set forth in this Agreement, or (y) expand or modify in any manner of any of the Purchaser’s or Purchaser Parent’s rights or remedies (including any indemnification rights) hereunder. All statements

 ARTICLE XII 
 GUARANTEES 
 Section 12.1
Guarantees of Purchaser Parent, (a) Purchaser Parent is executing this Agreement to guaranty the performance of Purchaser hereunder (other than Purchaser’s obligations under Section 5.13, which are the subject of
Section 12.1(b) hereof exclusively) and any agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement. Purchaser Parent hereby guarantees unconditionally and as a primary obligation that Purchaser shall perform all its obligations and assume all its
Liabilities contained in this Agreement and any agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement (including all Liabilities for all Real Property Leases, IRUs, Equipment Leases, Governmental Authorizations, Assumed Contracts, agreements, leases,
licenses, or rights as set forth on Schedule 12.1 (a) that are not included in the Purchased Assets or assigned to Purchaser at the Closing that are subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3). If Purchaser fails to perform
any such obligations and Liabilities, Purchaser Parent shall upon the written request of Sellers, immediately perform such obligations. This guaranty shall apply regardless of any amendments, variations, alterations, waivers or extensions to this
Agreement or any agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement, whether or not Purchaser Parent received notice of the same and Purchaser Parent waives all need for notice of the same. In no event shall Purchaser Parent’s obligations under this
Section 12.1 (a) exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price, and to the extent any of the agreements, leases, licenses or rights set forth on Schedule 12.1(a) are assigned to Purchaser after the Closing, the amount of Purchaser
Parent’s guarantee under this Section 12.1 (a) shall automatically be reduced by the aggregate exposure to Sellers or their Affiliates under each such assigned agreement, lease, license or right but in no event shall such amount be
reduced below Purchaser’s potential indemnification obligations under Sections 8.6(c) or 9.2 (subject to any limitations to such indemnification obligations as set forth in this Agreement). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.1
(a) to the contrary, (i) the amount of Purchaser Parent’s guarantee in respect of Purchaser’s potential indemnification obligations under Section 9.2 shall in no event exceed $50,000,000; and (ii) Purchaser Parent shall
be entitled to the same defenses to performance and payment under this Section 12.1 (a) as Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to under this Agreement. 
  

 -78- 

 (b) In addition to the guarantee of Purchaser Parent contained in Section 12.1(a), Purchaser Parent
hereby guarantees unconditionally and as a primary obligation that Purchaser shall perform all its obligations and assume all its indemnification obligations and other Liabilities described in Section 5.13 in connection with any Parent
Guarantee set forth on Schedule 5.13(a) for which the underlying guarantee of the relevant Affiliate of Sellers has not been terminated, replaced, released or substituted at or prior to the Closing in accordance with Section 5.13(a). If
