      RE:   EMPLOYMENT TERMS

Dear Tony:

            Maguire Properties, Inc. (the "REIT") and Maguire Properties, L.P.
(the "Operating Partnership" and together with the REIT, the "Company") are
pleased to offer you the position of Senior Vice President, Leasing of the REIT
and the Operating Partnership on the following terms, effective as of the date
of the closing of the initial public offering of shares of the REIT's common
stock (the "Effective Date"):

      1. POSITION, DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES. As of the Effective Date, you
will be employed as Senior Vice President, Leasing of the REIT and the Operating
Partnership. In the capacity of Senior Vice President, Leasing, you will have
such duties and responsibilities as are normally associated with such position.
Your duties may be changed from time to time by the Company, consistent with
your position. You will report to the President of the REIT or the Operating
Partnership, as applicable, and will work at our principal offices located in
downtown Los Angeles (or such other location in the Los Angeles area as the
Company may utilize as its principal offices), except for travel to other
locations as may be necessary to fulfill your responsibilities. At the Company's
request, you will serve the Company and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates in
other offices and capacities in addition to the foregoing. In the event that you
serve in any one or more of such additional capacities, your compensation will
not be increased beyond that specified in this letter. In addition, in the event
your service in one or more of such additional capacities is terminated, your
compensation, as specified in this letter, will not be diminished or reduced in
any manner as a result of such termination for so long as you otherwise remain
employed under the terms of this letter.

      2. BASE COMPENSATION. During your employment with the Company, the Company
will pay you a base salary of $275,000 per year, less payroll deductions and all
required withholdings, payable in accordance with the Company's normal payroll
practices and prorated for any partial month of employment. Your base salary may
be subject to increase pursuant to the Company's policies as in effect from time
to time.

      3. ANNUAL BONUS. In addition to the base salary set forth above, you will
be eligible to participate in the Company's incentive bonus plan applicable to
similarly situated executives of
<PAGE>
the Company. The amount of your annual bonus will be based on the attainment of
performance criteria established and evaluated by the Company in accordance with
the terms of such bonus plan as in effect from time to time, provided that,
subject to the terms of such bonus plan, your target annual bonus will initially
be a minimum of 60% of your annual base salary for such year, and your maximum
annual bonus will initially be 90% of your annual base salary for such year.
Your bonus will be payable semi-annually in a manner determined by the Company
in accordance with the bonus plan.

      4. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS. Subject to adoption by the Board of Directors
of the REIT and approval by the REIT's stockholders of the REIT's incentive
award plan (the "Incentive Plan"), the REIT will grant you the following
restricted stock awards under the Incentive Plan:

            (a) Initial Grant. The REIT shall, as of the Effective Date, grant
you a number of shares of the REIT's common stock (the "Initial Restricted
Stock") equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $500,000 by (y) the
initial public officering price of a share of the REIT's common stock. The
Initial Restricted Stock will be granted to you at a purchase price of $0.01 per
share; provided, however, that the aggregate purchase price of the Initial
Restricted Stock shall not exceed $1,000. The Initial Restricted Stock will vest
in full on the Effective Date. Consistent with the foregoing, the terms and
conditions of the Initial Restricted Stock will be set forth in a restricted
stock agreement to be entered into by you and the REIT which will evidence the
grant of the Initial Restricted Stock; and

            (b) Subsequent Grant. Provided that your employment with the Company
has not terminated, the REIT shall, upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date on
which the REIT makes its annual grants to similarly situated executives under
the Incentive Plan for the year following the year in which the Effective Date
occurs, or (ii) the first anniversary of the Effective Date, grant you a number
of shares of the REIT's common stock (the "Subsequent Restricted Stock") equal
to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $2,000,000 by (y) the fair market value
(as determined under the Incentive Plan) of a share of the REIT's common stock
on the date of grant. The Subsequent Restricted Stock will be granted to you at
a purchase price of $0.01 per share. The Subsequent Restricted Stock will vest
as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of the Subsequent Restricted
Stock will vest on the date on which the Subsequent Restricted Stock is granted
to you, and, subject to your continued employment with the Company, twenty-five
percent (25%) of the shares of the Subsequent Restricted Stock will vest on each
of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of such grant. In the
event of a termination of your employment by the Company without cause (as
defined below) following the date of grant of the Subsequent Restricted Stock,
the Subsequent Restricted Stock will thereupon immediately vest in full.
Consistent with the foregoing, the terms and conditions of the Subsequent
Restricted Stock will be set forth in a restricted stock agreement to be entered
into by you and the REIT which will evidence the grant of the Subsequent
Restricted Stock.

      5. ADDITIONAL PAYMENT. As soon as practicable but in no event more than 30
days after the Effective Date, the Company will pay you a lump-sum cash payment
of $500,000, subject to payroll deductions and all required withholdings.

                                       2
<PAGE>
      6. BENEFITS AND VACATION. You will be entitled to participate in all
incentive, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs
maintained or sponsored by the Company from time to time which are applicable to
other similarly situated executives of the Company, subject to the terms and
conditions thereof. You will also be eligible for standard benefits, such as
medical insurance, sick leave, vacations and holidays to the extent applicable
generally to other similarly situated executives of the Company.

      7. COMPENSATION GROSS-UP. The amount of compensation payable to you
pursuant to Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5 above will be "grossed up" as necessary (on
an after-tax basis) to compensate for any additional social security withholding
taxes due as a result of your shared employment by the Operating Partnership,
the REIT and, if applicable, any subsidiary and/or affiliate thereof.

      8. CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. As a condition of your
employment with the Company, you agree that during the term of such employment
and any time thereafter, you will not directly or indirectly disclose or
appropriate to your own use, or the use of any third party, any trade secret or
confidential information concerning the REIT, the Operating Partnership, Maguire
Services, Inc., a Maryland corporation, their respective subsidiaries or
affiliates (collectively, the "Maguire Group") or their businesses, whether or
not developed by you, except as it is required in connection with your services
rendered for the Company. You further agree that, upon termination of your
employment, you will not receive or remove from the files or offices of the
Maguire Group any originals or copies of documents or other materials maintained
in the ordinary course of business of the Maguire Group, and that you will
return any such documents or materials otherwise in your possession.

      9. NON-SOLICITATION. You further agree that during the term of such
employment and for one year after your employment is terminated, you will not
directly or indirectly solicit, induce, or encourage any employee, consultant,
agent, customer, vendor, or other parties doing business with any member of the
Maguire Group to terminate their employment, agency, or other relationship with
the Maguire Group or such member or to render services for or transfer their
business from the Maguire Group or such member and you will not initiate
discussion with any such person for any such purpose or authorize or knowingly
cooperate with the taking of any such actions by any other individual or entity;
provided, however, that after the termination of your employment, it shall not
be a violation of this Section 9 for you to conduct business with any tenants or
prospective tenants of the Maguire Group so long as such activities do not
violate Section 8 above.

      10. AT-WILL EMPLOYMENT. Your employment with the Company is "at-will," and
either you or the Company may terminate your employment for any reason
whatsoever (or for no reason) by giving 30 days prior written notice of such
termination to the other party. This at-will employment relationship cannot be
changed except in a writing signed by you and an authorized representative of
the Company.

      11. NON-CAUSE TERMINATION. Should the Company terminate your employment
without cause (as defined below), then, in addition to any other amounts payable
to you through the date of termination of your employment, the Company will pay
you a lump-sum cash

                                       3
<PAGE>
severance payment equal to the sum of (x) 100% of your then current annual base
salary, plus (y) 100% of your target annual bonus (assuming that you had
remained employed) for the year in which the termination of employment occurs,
plus (z) in the event that such termination of employment occurs prior to the
first anniversary of the Effective Date, $500,000; provided, however, that in no
event shall you or your estate or beneficiaries be entitled to any such payments
hereunder upon any termination of your employment by reason of your total and
permanent disability or your death. Your right to receive the severance payments
set forth herein is conditioned on and subject to your execution and
non-revocation of a general release of claims against the Maguire Group, in a
form reasonably acceptable to the Company. For purposes of this letter, "cause"
shall mean

            (i) your willful and continued failure to substantially perform your
      duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from your
      incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a written demand for
      substantial performance is delivered to you by the Company, which demand
      specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes that you
      have not substantially performed your duties;

            (ii) your willful commission of an act of fraud or dishonesty
      resulting in economic or financial injury to the Company or its
      subsidiaries or affiliates;

            (iii) your conviction of, or entry by you of a guilty or no contest
      plea to, the commission of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude;

            (iv) a willful breach by you of your fiduciary duty to the Company
      which results in economic or other injury to the Company or its
      subsidiaries or affiliates; or

            (v) your willful and material breach of your covenants set forth in
      Section 8 or 9 above.

For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act on your part will be
considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by you in bad
faith or without reasonable belief that your action or omission was in the best
interests of the Company.

      12.   COMPANY RULES AND REGULATIONS.  As an employee of the Company,
you agree to abide by Company rules and regulations as set forth in the
Company's Employee Handbook or as otherwise promulgated.

      13. PAYMENT OF FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS. The payment or provision to you by
the Company of any remuneration, benefits or other financial obligations
pursuant to this letter will be allocated to the Operating Partnership, the REIT
and, if applicable, any subsidiary and/or affiliate thereof in accordance with
the Employee Sharing and Expense Allocation Agreement, by and between the REIT,
the Operating Partnership, and Maguire Services, Inc., as in effect from time to
time.

                                       4
<PAGE>
      14. WITHHOLDING. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under
this letter such Federal, state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required to
be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

      15. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. As of the Effective Date, this letter and the
employment terms set forth herein comprise the final, complete and exclusive
agreement between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof
and replace and supersede any and all other agreements, offers or promises,
whether oral or written, made to you by any member of the Maguire Group or any
entity (a "Predecessor Employer"), or representative thereof, whose business or
assets any member of the Maguire Group succeeded to in connection with the
initial public offering of the REIT's common stock or the transactions related
thereto. You agree that any such agreement, offer or promise between you and any
member of the Maguire Group or a Predecessor Employer (or any representative
thereof) is hereby terminated and will be of no further force or effect, and you
acknowledge and agree that upon your execution of this letter, you will have no
right or interest in or with respect to any such agreement, offer or promise. In
the event that the Effective Date does not occur, this letter (including,
without limitation, the immediately preceding sentence) will have no force or
effect.

      16. PROOF OF RIGHT TO WORK. As required by law, this offer of employment
is subject to satisfactory proof of your right to work in the United States.

STOCK PURCHASE
AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of August 20, 2002, between UPM-Kymmene Investment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), and Bemis Company, Inc., a Missouri corporation (“Seller”).

 
WHEREAS, Seller is the owner of the only issued
and outstanding share of Stock of Morgan Adhesives Company, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”). 
 
WHEREAS, UPM-Kymmene, Oyj (“Parent”) has agreed to guarantee the performance by Buyer of Buyer’s obligations under
the Agreement (the “Guaranty”). 
 
WHEREAS, Seller desires to sell to Buyer and Buyer desires to purchase from Seller all of the outstanding shares of Stock of the Company owned by Seller subject to and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises
and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 
ARTICLE I 
 
SALE AND PURCHASE OF CAPITAL STOCK 
 
Section 1.01. Sale and Purchase. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and in reliance upon the representations and warranties hereinafter contained, at the Closing
on the Closing Date (both as hereinafter defined), Seller agrees to sell, convey, assign, transfer and deliver to Buyer and Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller one share of the common stock of Company, with no par value per share (the
“Share”), free and clear of any and all Liens, constituting all of the issued and outstanding shares of Stock of the Company, for the purchase price hereinafter set forth in this Article I. 
 
Section 1.02. Purchase Price. The purchase price paid
for the Share at Closing (the “Initial Purchase Price”) shall be $420,000,000 (Four Hundred Twenty Million United States Dollars) plus (i) 520,000 Euros (being the reserve for FAS 87 liabilities for the Belgian Supplemental Pension
Plan) and (ii) $4,492,000 (being the reserve for bad debt for the Company and Company Subsidiaries at December 31, 2001) minus: 
 
(a) the Net Indebtedness Target; 
 
(b) the difference between (i) the aggregate amount of payments to be made with respect to Seller’s outstanding “Equity
Units” awarded under the 1994 and 2001 Seller Stock Incentive Plans listed in Schedule 6.04 (m) to Company or Company Subsidiary employees in accordance with Section 6.04(m) (such payments to be calculated in accordance with the
provisions of Section 6.04(m), except that the average closing price per share of Seller’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the Friday of the week immediately preceding the week in
which the Closing occurs shall be used in place of the closing price on the last trading day prior to the Closing Date) and (ii) $2,890,000 (being the accrual for the “Equity Units” on the Reference Working Capital Statement); and

 

 
(c) an amount
equal to the cash stay bonuses aggregating 639,341 Euros plus all related social insurance costs (imposed on the employer) which a European Company Subsidiary has committed to pay the individuals listed on Schedule 1.02(c) in exchange for
such employees remaining employed by a Company Subsidiary through the Closing Date, as such amount will be adjusted for those employees who are no longer employed by a Company Subsidiary on the Closing Date; provided, that, Buyer
agrees that it will pay, or cause the Company or a Company Subsidiary to pay, the bonuses described in this Section 1.02(c) within 3 days of the Closing Date. 
 
For purposes of this Section 1.02, the amounts described herein in Euros shall be converted to U.S. Dollars by
reference to the most recent noon buying rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the second Business Day prior to the Closing Date. The final purchase price shall be the Initial Purchase Price as adjusted by the payments referred
to in Section 1.07 (as so adjusted, the “Final Purchase Price”). 
 
Section 1.03. Payment. On the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay to Seller the Initial Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of Seller or by such other means
as mutually agreed upon by the parties. 
 
Section
1.04. Working Capital and Net Indebtedness Adjustment. (a) As promptly as possible, and in any event not later than 45 calendar days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller the Closing Working Capital Statement and
Closing Net Indebtedness Statement prepared in accordance with GAAP and the accounting principles set forth on Exhibit A. Attached hereto as Exhibit B is the Reference Working Capital Statement and Reference Net Indebtedness Statement.
 
 
(b) Buyer and Seller agree to be
reasonably available at each other’s request to meet and discuss any and all financial and business matters relating to preparation of the Closing Working Capital Statement and Closing Net Indebtedness Statement. Buyer shall conduct a physical
count of the inventory in connection with Buyer’s preparation of the Closing Working Capital Statement and Seller and its representatives shall have the opportunity to observe such inventory. 
 
Section 1.05. Objections. (a) Seller may dispute any
amounts reflected on either the Closing Working Capital Statement or Closing Net Indebtedness Statement; provided, however, that Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of each disputed item (such notice being a “Notice of
Dispute”), within 45 calendar days after Seller’s receipt of the Closing Working Capital Statement and Closing Net Indebtedness Statement. Such Notice of Dispute shall specify the basis for each such dispute. If Seller does not deliver
to Buyer a Notice of Dispute within such 45-day period, the Closing Working Capital Statement and Closing Net Indebtedness Statement as prepared by Buyer and delivered to Seller, including without limitation the amount of the Working Capital and Net
Indebtedness stated therein, shall be final and binding on the parties hereto upon the expiration of such 45-day period. Seller and its representatives shall be provided with reasonable access to the books, records, non-proprietary work papers and
appropriate personnel of Buyer and, to the extent practicable, its accountants in connection with Seller’s review of the Closing Working Capital Statement and Closing Net Indebtedness Statement. 
 

-2- 

 
(b) After the
delivery by Seller to Buyer of any such Notice of Dispute, Buyer and Seller shall attempt to reconcile their differences with respect to the Closing Working Capital Statement and Closing Net Indebtedness Statement and any resolution by them as to
any disputed amounts set forth in the Notice of Dispute shall be final and binding on the parties hereto. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach a resolution with such effect within 20 Business Days after the delivery of the Notice of Dispute,
either Buyer or Seller may submit the items remaining in dispute for resolution to the office of Deloitte & Touche LLP in New York, New York (the “Independent Accountants”), whereupon each of Buyer and Seller shall promptly
furnish to the Independent Accountants such party’s final offer for the settlement of all items remaining in dispute (each a “Final Offer”). The Independent Accountants shall resolve such disputed items in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 1.06 hereof. All dispute resolution proceedings in connection with either the Closing Working Capital Statement or Closing Net Indebtedness Statement shall take place at the offices of the Independent
Accountants in New York, New York or at such other location as Buyer and Seller may mutually agree in writing. 
 
Section 1.06. Independent Accountants. (a) Each of the parties shall furnish, at its own expense, the Independent Accountants and
the other parties hereto with such documents and other written information as the Independent Accountants may request. Each party may also furnish to the Independent Accountants such other written information and documents as such party deems
relevant; provided that copies of all such documents and materials shall be concurrently delivered to the other parties to the proceedings in the same manner such materials are delivered to the Independent Accountants. The Independent
Accountants may, at their discretion, conduct one or more conferences with respect to the dispute between Buyer and Seller, at which conference each party shall have the right to present such additional documents, materials and other information and
to be accompanied or represented by such advisors, counsel and accountants as each party shall choose in its sole discretion. 
 
(b) Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accountants to render their written decision with respect to all matters submitted to
them by the Buyer and Seller. The Independent Accountants shall determine the proportion of their fees and expenses to be paid by Buyer and Seller and such determination shall be made so that the greater the degree (measured in aggregate dollars) to
which the Independent Accountants have accepted the Final Offer of a party, the smaller the proportion of fees and expenses assessed against that party. Buyer and Seller shall promptly pay their respective shares of the fees and expenses of the
Independent Accountants. The final determination of the Independent Accountants as to all disputed items shall be final and binding upon Buyer and Seller, except as to fraud. 
 
Section 1.07. Post-Closing Payment. 
 
(a) Working Capital. 
 
(i) If the actual amount of the Working Capital as finally determined (whether determined as a result of
agreement between Buyer and Seller or a determination by the Independent Accountants pursuant to Section 1.06 of this Agreement, a “Final Determination”) is in excess of the Working Capital Target, then Buyer shall pay the
amount of such excess to Seller; and 
 

-3- 

 
(ii) If upon a
Final Determination the Working Capital Target is in excess of the amount of the Working Capital, then Seller shall pay the amount of such excess to Buyer. 
 
(b) Net Indebtedness. 
 
(i) If upon a Final Determination the amount of the Net Indebtedness is in excess of the Net Indebtedness Target, then Seller shall pay
the amount of such excess to Buyer; and 
 
(ii) If
upon a Final Determination the Net Indebtedness Target is in excess of the amount of the Net Indebtedness, then Buyer shall pay the amount of such excess to Seller. 
 
(c) Each payment pursuant to this Section 1.07 shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available
funds or by such other means as mutually agreed upon by the parties not later than the third Business Day after the date of the Final Determination. Each such payment shall include interest on the amount due from the Closing Date to and including
the date paid in full at an annual interest rate equal to 4%. All such computations of interest shall be made by the party entitled to receive payment on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the
period for which such interest is payable. 
 
ARTICLE II 
 
CLOSING

 
Section 2.01. Closing. The Closing of the
sale and purchase of the Share shall be consummated at the offices of Jones, Day, Reavis & Pogue, 222 East 41st

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND THE
COMPANY 
 
Except as set forth in the

Section 3.01. Organization. Each of Seller, the Company
and the Company Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized and has all requisite corporate or similar powers and authority and possesses all franchises, licenses,
permits, authorizations, consents, orders and 
 

-4- 

 
approvals (collectively,
“Permits”) of, or registration, declaration or filing with any Governmental Authority or any other Person necessary to enable it to own, lease or otherwise hold its properties and assets and to conduct its businesses as currently
conducted except where the failure to possess a Permit or make a registration, declaration or filing could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair or delay Seller’s
ability to effect the Closing. Each of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary, except where the failure to be duly qualified
or in good standing could not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair or delay Seller’s ability to effect the Closing. Seller has delivered to Buyer true and
complete copies of the articles or certificate of incorporation of the Company as currently in effect (the “Company Charter”), the By-laws of the Company as currently in effect (the “Company By-laws”), and the
comparable charter and organizational documents of each Company Subsidiary, in each case as currently in effect. 
 
Section 3.02. Authorization; Validity of Agreement. Seller has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents to which it is or will be a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of Seller, and no other corporate action on the part of Seller is or will be
necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. No vote of, or
consent by, the holders of any class or series of Stock issued by Seller is or will be necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by Seller of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to which it is or will be a party or the
consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 
 
Section 3.03. Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. This Agreement and each of the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party has been duly executed and delivered by Seller, and, assuming due and valid
authorization, execution and delivery hereof and thereof by Buyer and each other party hereto or thereto, is or will be a valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable against Seller in accordance with its terms except (a) as limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other similar Laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and (b) that the availability of the remedy of specific
performance or injunctive or other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable defenses and would be subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. 
 
Section 3.04. No Conflicts; Consents. Except as set
forth on Schedule 3.04, the execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents does not, and compliance with the terms hereof and thereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby does not and will not: 
 
(a)
violate the Company Charter, Company By-laws or organizational documents of the Company Subsidiaries; 
 

-5- 

 
(b) violate
any applicable Law or Order; 
 
(c) require the
consent, approval or registration of, or any notice filing with, any Governmental Authority other than the filing of a notification and report form under the HSR Act or any similar filings required under European Union competition law or any other
foreign Law and other than where the failure to obtain such consent, approvals and registrations or to give or make such notice could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or materially impair or delay the ability of Seller to
effect the Closing; or 
 
(d) result in a violation
or breach of, conflict with, constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any right or obligation of Seller, the Company or any Company
Subsidiary or to a loss of any benefit to which Seller, the Company or any Company Subsidiary is entitled under any agreement to which it is a party or other instrument binding upon such company or any Permit or other similar authorization held by
Seller, the Company or any Company Subsidiary. 
 
Section 3.05. Subsidiaries; Equity Interests. (a) Schedule 3.05(a) sets forth the name and jurisdiction of organization of each Company Subsidiary, the interest of the Company in each such Company Subsidiary and the
jurisdictions in which each Company Subsidiary is qualified to do business. All the outstanding shares of Stock of each Company Subsidiary are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, except as set forth in Schedule
3.05(a), owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, free and clear of all Liens of any kind or nature whatsoever. 
 
(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.05(b), other than the Company Subsidiaries, there are no other corporations, partnerships,
joint ventures, associations or other entities in which the Company or any Company Subsidiary owns, of record or beneficially, any direct or indirect equity or other interest or any right (contingent or otherwise) to acquire the same. Other than the
Company Subsidiaries, neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary is a member of (and no part of the business of the Company or any Company Subsidiary is conducted through) any partnership. The Company is not a party to any joint venture
agreement. 
 
Section 3.06. Capital
Structure. (a) The authorized Stock of the Company consists of 850 shares, no par value, of common stock (“Company Common Stock”). The Share is the only share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding. No shares of Company

Agreement. The Share and the shares of Stock of the Company Subsidiaries are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and are not subject to or issued in violation of any preemptive right, subscription right or any similar right
under any applicable Laws, the Company Charter, the Company By-laws or similar organizational documents of any Company Subsidiaries or any agreement to which the Company or any Company Subsidiary is a party or otherwise bound. There are no bonds,
debentures, notes or other indebtedness of the Company or the Company Subsidiaries

issue, grant, extend or enter into any such option, warrant, call, right, security, commitment, Contract, arrangement or undertaking or (iii) that give any Person the right to receive any economic benefit or right similar to or derived from the
economic benefits and rights accruing to holders of any Company Common Stock or any Stock of any Company Subsidiary. There are not any outstanding contractual obligations of the Company or any Company Subsidiary to repurchase, redeem or otherwise
acquire any shares of Stock of the Company or any Company Subsidiary. No legend or other reference to a purported Lien appears upon any certificates representing the Share or the shares of any Company Subsidiary. 
 
Section 3.07. Financial Statements; Undisclosed

periods involved, except as otherwise disclosed in the notes thereto, and present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (including the Company Subsidiaries)

-11- 

benefits and death benefit coverage, unless otherwise covered by insurance both before and after the

Plan, and (C) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries would incur any withdrawal liability if the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate withdrew (within the meaning of Part 1 of Subtitle E of Title I of ERISA) from each

Subsidiaries to protect rights of like importance. 
 
(d) No former or current personnel have any claim against the Seller, Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in connection with such personnel’s involvement in the conception and development of any Company Intellectual
Property; and no such claim has been asserted or, to the Knowledge of Seller, is threatened. None of the former or current officers and employees of the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries has any patent issued, copyright registered, or
application pending for any device, process, design or invention of any kind now used or needed by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries in the furtherance of its business operations, which patents, registrations, or applications have not

(e) Schedule 3.18 contains a complete and accurate list and description of all the material Software that is owned by the Company
or Company Subsidiary and used in its business, except for commercially available, over-the-counter “shrink-wrap” Software and open source Software (collectively, the “Owned Software,” which term does not include Licensed
Software (as defined in subsection (f) below)). Except as set forth in such schedule, the Company or Company Subsidiary has title to the Owned Software, free and clear of all claims, including claims or rights of employees, agents,
consultants, customers, licensees or other parties involved in the development, creation, marketing, maintenance, enhancement or licensing of such Software. Except as set forth in such schedule, and except for commercially available,
over-the-counter “shrink-wrap” Software and open source Software (“Shrink Wrap”), the Owned Software is not dependent on any Licensed Software (as defined in subsection (f) below) in order to operate fully in the
manner in which it is intended. 
 
(f) Schedule
3.18 contains a complete and accurate list of all material Software (other than Shrink Wrap and Owned Software), under which the Company or Company Subsidiary is a licensee, lessee or otherwise has obtained from a third party a right to use and
that is used in the business of the Company (the “Licensed Software”). Such section also sets forth a list of all license fees, rents, royalties or other charges that the Company or Company Subsidiary is required or obligated to pay
with respect to the Licensed Software. The Company or Company Subsidiary has the right and license to use, sublicense, modify and copy Licensed Software as set forth in the respective license, lease or similar agreement pursuant to which the
Licensed Software is licensed to the same, free of any other limitations or encumbrances, and the applicable licensee is in compliance in all material respects with all applicable provisions of such agreements. Except as disclosed in Schedule
3.18, none of the Licensed Software has been 
 

-23- 

incorporated into or made a part of any Owned Software or any other Licensed Software in violation of Law
or Contract. None of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries has published or disclosed any Licensed Software to any other party except pursuant to contracts requiring such other parties to keep the Licensed Software confidential or as,
individually or in the aggregate, could not have a Material Adverse Effect. No party to whom any of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries has disclosed Licensed Software has breached such obligation of confidentiality, except such breaches as
could not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 
(g)
The Owned Software and the Licensed Software and Shrink Wrap constitute all material Software used in the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Business Software”). Except as specified in
Schedule 3.18, none of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries has granted any licenses, leases or other rights and has no obligation to do so with respect to the Business Software. Whichever of the Company or a Company Subsidiary is the
applicable licensee of the Licensed Software has complied in all material respects with its obligations to its licensors in respect of the Licensed Software. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not cause a breach or default under
any material license, lease or similar agreement related to the Business Software or impair Buyer’s ability to use the Business Software in the same manner as such Software is currently used by the Company or a Company Subsidiary. The Business
Software, as currently used by the Company or any Company Subsidiary, is not infringing any Intellectual Property rights of any other person or entity, and, to the Company’s Knowledge, no other person or entity is infringing any Company
Intellectual Property within the Business Software, which infringement by such other person or entity, individually or in the aggregate, could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) The Company or the applicable Company Subsidiary shall retain and satisfy all obligations and liabilities to Acquired Employees,
Former Employees and current or former dependents of such Persons under each Company Benefit Plan and International Company Benefit Plan, other than the “project bonuses” set forth on Schedule 6.04(c) that are triggered upon the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall cause any individual who is covered by a Company Benefit Plan or International Company Benefit Plan but who is a current employee of (or whose most recent period of
employment was with) Seller or a Subsidiary of Seller other than the Company or a Company Subsidiary, or is a current or former dependent of such a current or former employee, to cease to be eligible for coverage under such Company Benefit Plan or
International Company Benefit Plan on or before the Closing Date and to be transferred to coverage under such other employee benefit plan(s) sponsored by Seller as Seller may designate for this purpose. Neither the Company nor any Company
Subsidiary, nor any Company Benefit Plan or International Company Benefit Plan, shall have any liability or obligation for any health care expenses incurred after the Closing Date by any individual described in the previous sentence. 
 
(d) Buyer shall cause the Company or a Company Subsidiary to
(i) satisfy all obligations to reemploy or reinstate any individual who is on a leave of absence, paid or unpaid (including but not limited to a disability leave, a leave due to an injury or illness subject to workers’ compensation, or a leave
under the Family and Medical Leave Act) or is otherwise absent from active employment for any other reason on the Closing Date and whose most recent employment prior to the Closing Date was as an employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary, and
(ii) continue the payments to any such individual who is receiving short term disability pay on the day before the Closing Date in accordance with Seller’s applicable short term disability plan or policy until the date that such payments would
otherwise terminate under said Seller’s short term disability plan or policy. If an individual who is receiving such short term disability pay subsequently becomes eligible to receive long-term disability benefits with respect to a disability
incurred or commencing prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall provide such benefits under Seller’s long-term disability plan. 
 
(e) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the Company to adopt flexible spending account plans that are materially identical to
Seller’s Employee Benefit Plans (and, as applicable, International Employee Benefit Plans) which are flexible spending account plans. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall spin off from its flexible spending account plans to the Company’s
plans the portions of Seller’s plans attributable to Acquired Employees, and the Company shall thereafter assume and satisfy all liabilities and obligations under the spun-off portions of Seller’s plans, including the reimbursement of any
expenses which were incurred prior to the Closing Date but which were not submitted for payment prior to the Closing Date.

Such assumed liabilities and
obligations with respect to Seller’s flexible spending account plans shall be included in the Closing Working Capital Statement and taken into account in the calculation of the Working Capital. 
 
(f) Buyer shall cause one or more defined contribution plans
maintained by Buyer or its subsidiaries to accept a direct rollover pursuant to Section 401(a)(31) of the Code of any eligible rollover distribution (excluding after-tax contributions) from any Seller Employee Benefit Plan which is a qualified
defined benefit or defined contribution plan maintained by Seller or its Subsidiaries which has been elected by any Acquired Employee who remains an employee of the Company or a Company Subsidiary on the date the distribution is made. Such a direct
rollover may include the rollover in kind of any participant loan outstanding to the individual under a qualified defined contribution plan of Seller on the date the direct rollover occurs. 
 
(g) Except as otherwise provided in the preceding subsections
of this section, Seller shall retain all of the assets of the Seller Benefit Plans and International Seller Benefit Plans, and shall be responsible for and satisfy all liabilities of Seller’s Benefit Plans, including without limitation, (i)
retirement plan benefits accrued prior to the Closing Date, (ii) health care expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date, (iii) health care expenses incurred on or after the Closing Date by any individual with respect to whom a qualifying event
under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 or any similar state or local law occurred prior to the Closing Date and who has elected such continuation coverage, (iv) any disability benefit or workers compensation claims
attributable to an injury or illness incurred or commencing prior to the Closing Date, and (v) deaths occurring prior to the Closing Date. Buyer and Seller shall take all actions necessary to cause the Company and each Company Subsidiary to cease,
as and where applicable, to be a participating employer in each Seller Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date. 
 
(h) Seller shall cause each Acquired Employee to be fully vested in such Acquired Employee’s accrued benefit under the Bemis
Investment Incentive Plan. 
 
(i) (i) In the event
that the Closing occurs prior to February 28, 2003, Seller shall include in the Closing Working Capital Statement and take into account in the calculation of Working Capital the sum of (A) the liability accrued through the Closing Date by the
Company and the Company Subsidiaries for awards under the Bemis Executive Incentive Plan (MACtac North America Plan), effective January 1, 2002, (and any other annual bonus plan) with respect to employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for
the year ending December 31, 2002 (“2002 Awards”), and (B) any positive or negative difference between (1) the amount actually paid by the Company and any Company Subsidiary on or after the Closing Date with respect to such awards
and (2) the accrued liability described in clause (A) above, with the resulting sum of clauses (A) and (B) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in 2002 prior to the Closing Date and the
denominator of which is 365. 
 
(ii) The 15
employees designated on Schedule 6.04(i)(ii) shall be entitled to a maximum 2002 Award of up to 200% of the “normal award” for which they are eligible under the Bemis Executive Incentive Plan (MACtac North America Plan), effective
January 1, 2002, and as in effect on the date hereof, for the year ending December 31, 2002. 
 

-41- 

 
(iii) Buyer
shall pay all 2002 Awards by no later than February 28, 2003, provided that the Closing occurs prior to such date. 
 
(iv) In the event that the Closing occurs after December 31, 2002, Seller shall consult with Buyer in the design (including, without
limitation, the setting of bonus targets and measurement standards), consistent with the Ordinary Course of Business, of the Bemis Executive Incentive Plan (MACtac North Americas Plan) and any other annual bonus plan for 2003. 
 
(v) In the event that the Closing occurs after December 31,
2002, Seller shall include in the Closing Working Capital Statement and take into account in the calculation of Working Capital the liability accrued through the Closing Date by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for awards under the Bemis
Executive Incentive Plan (MACtac North America Plan), effective January 1, 2003, (and any other annual bonus plan) with respect to employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary for the year ending December 31, 2003. 
 
(j) Prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall cause the Company
or any Company Subsidiary to use its best efforts to negotiate an amendment to each of the current collective bargaining agreements between the Company (or any Company Subsidiary) and Teamsters Local Union No. 348 (“Teamsters”)
(covering Company employees in Stow, Ohio) and the Company (or any Company Subsidiary) and the Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical, and Energy Workers International Union Local No. 8-0600 (“Paper Workers Union”) to provide, as
applicable, (i) in lieu of participation in the Bemis 401(k) Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees during the post-Closing Date remaining term of the respective current collective bargaining agreement, participation for such period as of the Closing
Date in a plan maintained by the Company which is substantially similar in all material respects to the Bemis 401(k) Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees, and (ii) that no transfer of any assets or liabilities attributable to Acquired Employees will
be made to the Company’s plan from such Plan other than in the form of direct rollovers as provided in subsection (f) above. Seller shall use its best efforts to ensure that Buyer participates in such negotiations to the extent Buyer may
determine. 
 
(k) Seller shall, as of the Closing
Date, credit each Acquired Employee who is covered on the Closing Date under the current collective bargaining agreement between the Company (or any Company Subsidiary) and the Paper Workers Union with an additional period of credited service for
benefit accrual purposes under the terms of the Bemis Retirement Plan for Hourly Employees for the period, if any, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the date such Acquired Employee terminates employment with Buyer or
any of its Affiliates (including without limitation the Company or any Company Subsidiary), (ii) August 31, 2003 or (iii) the date Seller negotiates with the Paper Workers Union to discontinue the participation of the Company and each Company
Subsidiary in such Plan, at the multiplier rate in effect for such period. Seller shall use its best efforts to ensure that Buyer participates in such negotiations to the extent Buyer may determine. 
 
(l) If, after the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date,
Seller, the Company or any Company Subsidiary determines, subject to Section 5.01(b), in good faith to confer upon any employee listed on Schedule 6.04(l), any additional material compensation or benefits for which 
 

-42- 

 
no prior commitment to such
employee has been made, Seller agrees to use its reasonable best efforts in connection therewith to obtain such employee’s consent to the assignment to Buyer of any Confidentiality and Non-Competitive Agreements to which such employee is
party. In no event shall Seller, the Company or any Company Subsidiary be required to make an offer of any such additional consideration solely for the purpose of obtaining such consents. 
 
(m) With respect to the outstanding “Equity Units” awarded under the 1994 and 2001 Seller Stock
Incentive Plans listed in Schedule 6.04(m) to such employees of the Company or any Company Subsidiary that are also listed in such Schedule, as of the Closing Date, each such award shall be cancelled and, in lieu of any such award, the
Company or any Company Subsidiary shall, within (i) 15 days of the Closing Date with respect to the employees listed in Schedule 6.04(m)(i) and (ii) 60 days of the Closing Date with respect to the employees listed in Schedule
6.04(m)(ii), pay each employee so listed in Schedule 6.04(m) an amount in cash equal to, with respect to each award so listed in Schedule 6.04(m), the product of the number of “Equity Units” awarded, multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months of service in the vesting period applicable to such award that have been completed and the denominator of which is 72, multiplied by the closing price per share of Seller’s common stock
on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day prior to the Closing Date, provided that no such payment shall be made to an employee listed in Schedule 6.04(m)(ii) unless such employee (A) consents to the assignment of
his or her Confidentiality and Non-Competitive Agreement from Seller to the Company, and (B) executes a release of liability of the Company and any Company Subsidiary with respect to the cancelled “Equity Units.” The excess or deficiency,
as the case may be, between the adjustment to the Initial Purchase Price calculated in accordance with Section 1.02(b) and amounts actually paid under this Section 6.04(m) shall be included in the Closing Working Capital Statement and
taken into account in the calculation of Working Capital. 
 
(n) No provisions of this Agreement shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) or any persons in respect of continued employment with any of the Company,
Seller or Buyer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates and no provision of this Agreement shall create any such rights in any such persons in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any plan, policy or
arrangement which may be established or maintained by Buyer. No provision of this Agreement shall constitute a limitation on the right of Buyer, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries to terminate at will any employee of the Company or any Company
Subsidiaries. 
 
(o) To the extent that the
Acquired Employees remain employed with the Company, any Company Subsidiary or Buyer or any of its Affiliates after the Closing, such Acquired Employees shall be deemed to not be in violation of any confidentiality or non-competition agreements with
Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and any Company Subsidiary), if applicable. 
 
(p) (i) For each Pension Benefit Arrangement, Seller shall pay Buyer an amount equal to the excess of any Benefit Liabilities over the
related Asset Amount (the “Underfunding Reimbursement Payment”). Seller shall pay Buyer in a lump sum the Underfunding Reimbursement Payment as soon as possible, but no later than 30 days after the date that the Benefit Liabilities
have been determined by Buyer, as adjusted by the Applicable 
 

-43- 

 
Rate to and including the date
of payment from and including the Closing Date. The amount to be so paid shall be determined in local currency and converted into U.S. dollars on the payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Underfunding Reimbursement Payment shall be offset
by an amount equal to the excess of the Asset Amount over the related Benefit Liabilities under any Pension Benefit Arrangement.

practices of the country in which such arrangement is maintained. 
 
(C) The “Asset Amount” shall mean, with respect to each funded Company Benefit Plan or Funded International Company Benefit Plan, the fair market value of such Pension Benefit Arrangement’s assets as of
the Determination Date. The value of such assets shall be valued at their market value after the deduction of expenses. With respect to all other Pension Benefit Arrangements, the Asset Amount is zero, except to the extent that there is an accrual
on the Audited Balance Sheet in which case the Asset Amount shall be equal to such accrual. 
 
(D) The “Applicable Rate” shall mean the discount rate used to determine a Pension Benefit Arrangement’s Benefit Liabilities, or, if none, the rate set forth in Schedule
6.04(p)(ii)(D). 
 
(E) Benefits intended to be
insured by insurance shall be excluded from the definition of “Benefit Liabilities” and the definition of “Asset Amount”. 
 

-44- 

 
(F) The

-45- 

(b) Seller shall timely prepare and file (or cause such preparation and filing) with the
appropriate Tax authorities all Tax Returns with respect to the Company and the Company Subsidiaries for all Taxes for which there is a taxable period that ends on or before the Closing Date (the “Seller Returns”), and will pay (or

reflected as a liability in the Closing Working Capital Statement. 
 
(c) Seller shall include the income of Company and any eligible Company Subsidiary (including any deferred items triggered into income by Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-13 and any excess loss account taken into income

related to income or receipts or (y) imposed in connection with any sale, transfer or assignment or any deemed sale, transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible) be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if
the Tax year ended at the end of the Closing Date and (ii) in the case of Taxes (other than those described in clause (i)) imposed on a periodic basis with respect to the business or assets of the Company or the Company Subsidiary or
otherwise measured by the level of any item, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding Tax period)

Tax. Seller will also pay any Tax imposed on Seller, Company or any Company Subsidiary (and indemnify Buyer, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries against any adverse consequences arising out of any failure to pay such Tax) attributable to an
election under state, local, or foreign law similar to the election available under Section 338(g) (or which results from the making of an election under Section 338(g)) with respect to the purchase and sale of the stock of the Company and any of
the Company Subsidiaries hereunder. 
 
(i) Buyer
intends to file Section 338(g) elections for each of the non-U.S. Company Subsidiaries subject to review and approval of the final allocation of the Purchase Price as reflected in Form 8023 filed with the IRS pursuant to Section 6.08(j).
Seller will also pay any Tax imposed on Seller, Company or any Company Subsidiary (and indemnify Buyer, the Company and Company Subsidiaries against any adverse consequences arising out of any failure to pay such Tax) attributable to these elections
(or which results from the making of an 
 

-47- 

 
election under 338(g) for the
non-U.S. Company Subsidiaries). If a Section 338(g) election is not made for a Company Subsidiary, Buyer agrees not to undertake any of the following actions with respect to such non-U.S. Company Subsidiary until after the November 30th (December 31st with respect to MACtac Canada Ltd./Ltee. and MACtac Mexico S.A. de C.V.) following the Closing Date: (i) liquidation or merger of the Company Subsidiary, (ii) redemption of shares, or (iii) distribution of assets.

shall request, Buyer and Seller shall jointly prepare Form 8023 and any accompanying schedules required under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and any corresponding or similar provisions of state or local law and Seller and Buyer agree to cooperate
reasonably in making any determination or election required or permitted to be made in connection with the election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code. Seller and Buyer shall execute Form 8023 and any accompanying schedules and such other
documents or forms at the Closing or at such other time as Buyer or Seller, as appropriate, may request or as required by the Code in order to effectuate the election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code. Buyer and Seller shall file all Tax Returns
in a manner consistent with the election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code, Form 8023 and any accompanying schedules and such other documents and forms as are reasonably requested by Buyer to effectuate the election under Section 338(h)(10) of
the Code. 
 
(k) The parties agree that the
Purchase Price, liabilities of the Company and Company Subsidiaries and other relevant items shall be allocated to the assets of the Company and Company Subsidiaries for purposes of preparing Form 8023 for the Section 338(h)(10) elections and Form
8594 for reporting the allocation of the Purchase Price in a manner consistent with Code Sections 338 and 1060 and the regulations thereunder. Buyer and Seller will each file asset acquisition statements on Form 8594 with their respective federal
income tax returns or other returns of income for the taxable year that includes the first date assets are sold. The Form 8023 shall be prepared and signed jointly by Buyer and Seller and filed with the IRS by the fifteenth day of the ninth month
following the month of the Closing Date. The Seller and Buyer agree to jointly prepare Form 8594, reflecting the allocation of the Purchase Price amongst the classes of assets as required under Code Sections 338 and 1060 and the regulations
thereunder. The allocations set forth on Form 8594 shall be satisfactory to both Seller and Buyer. All allocations contained in such Form 8594 shall be used by each party in filing their respective federal or state income tax returns for the year
which includes the year of sale. Amounts reported on Form 8594 will be subject to adjustment to reflect (i) Seller’s selling expenses as a reduction of sales proceeds, (ii) Buyer’s acquisition expenses as an addition to the Purchase Price
and (iii) any adjustments to the Purchase Price as defined in this Agreement, except as required by Law.

issues or customer accommodations. For the one hundred eighty day (180) period after the Closing Date, Buyer will collect the Receivables in accordance with prior reasonable commercial practices of Company and Company Subsidiaries (but without
resort to litigation or the use of collection agencies). Amounts received shall be applied to the oldest accounts first. One hundred eighty days (180) following the Closing Date, Buyer shall present Seller a list of unpaid Receivables for which
Buyer desires to be paid and Seller shall purchase (for a price equal to the respective amounts thereof (net of any credit memos for rebates, product warranty issues, or customer accommodations) on the Receivable List) all the unpaid Receivables set
forth on such list and Seller shall thereafter be entitled to collect such Receivables for its own account.

Subsidiaries harmless from and against the following:

that the terms “material” and “Material Adverse Effect” in Section 3.09 shall be disregarded and given no effect; 
 
(iii) any Tax imposed on the Company or any Company Subsidiary directly attributable to and measurable by the transactions contemplated by
Sections 5.04(b), 5.05, 5.07 and 5.09; and 
 
(iv) all reasonable accountants’ fees and expenses incurred in the investigation or defense of or in connection with the same.

or prior to the Closing Date, including without limitation, subject to the provisions of Section 10.01(c)(ii), any Remedial Work required 
 

-57- 

 
by any Governmental Authority
or Environmental Laws or permitted by Section 10.01(c)(ii). Any amounts paid by Seller pursuant to the Indemnification Obligation set forth in this subsection (c)(i) shall not be counted towards the limitation on Seller’s
aggregate liability for losses under this Article 10 set forth in Section 10.06(a) and shall not be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.06 and 10.07, other than Section 10.06(b) which shall be

Law (including, without limitation, any Environmental Permit) occurring prior to the Closing Date. As to any Remedial Work in respect of which indemnity is provided under Section 10.01(c)(i), Buyer shall have the right to design and implement
such activity; provided, however, that Seller shall have the right to be advised in reasonable detail about the selection and implementation of remedial alternatives to review any sampling data or environmental reports related to such
Remedial Work promptly after the preparation of the same, to receive copies of all correspondence related to such Remedial Work, and to attend any meeting with Governmental Authorities related to such Remedial Work. Any remedial alternative selected
by Buyer in connection with this indemnity shall be a reasonable alternative permitted under applicable Environmental Laws, provided, that, except to the extent otherwise required by any Governmental Authority or Environmental Law, the
indemnity provided by Section 10.01(c)(i) shall only apply to such Remedial Work as is reasonably necessary to make the Property in question suitable for the use to which such Property is being put by the Company on the date hereof.

 
(d) No examination, inspection or audit of the
properties, financial conditions or other matters of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and their businesses conducted by Buyer in connection with this Agreement shall in any way limit, affect or impair the ability of Buyer to rely on the
representations, warranties, covenants and obligations of Seller, the Company and the Company Subsidiaries set forth herein.

“Kanzaki License Agreement”) if the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated without the prior written consent of Kanzaki. Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such a consent from Kanzaki
prior to the Closing. If Seller is unable to obtain such consent, Seller shall have no obligation to Buyer, with respect to indemnification or otherwise, in the event that Kanzaki exercises its right to terminate the Kanzaki License Agreement. If
(i) Seller is unable to obtain Kanzaki’s written consent to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) Kanzaki exercises its right to terminate the Kanzaki Noncompetition Agreement, (iii) Kanzaki subsequently engages in competition
with Buyer prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date in a manner that would have violated the Kanzaki Noncompetition Agreement had it not been terminated, and (iv) Buyer provides Seller with written notice of the occurrence of such
competition prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, then Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless from and against up to $2,000,000 in direct economic damages in the form of lost profits 
 

-58- 

 
resulting from Kanzaki’s
competition with Buyer in the manner described above during the period prior to the date on which the Kanzaki Noncompetition Agreement would have expired without prior termination by action of any party thereto. Any amounts paid by Seller pursuant
to the indemnification obligation set forth in the previous sentence shall not be counted towards the limitation on Seller’s aggregate liability for Losses under this Article X set forth in Section 10.06(a) and shall not be
subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 10.06 and 10.07(b). 
 
Section 10.02. Buyer’s Indemnification. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Article X, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller and its Affiliates and
each of their successors and assigns, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents (each, a “Seller Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against
any Loss sustained or incurred by any Seller Indemnified Party, to the extent relating to, resulting from, or arising out of (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or
any certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date; (ii) any breach or failure to comply with or perform fully any covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer set forth in this Agreement or other
Transaction Documents; and (iii) (A) all Taxes of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries with respect to taxable periods beginning after the Closing Date (whether imposed by Law, Tax sharing agreement, Tax indemnity obligation or similar agreement
in respect of Taxes, or otherwise) and (B) Post-Closing Taxes as determined pursuant to Section 6.08(c) with respect to any Straddle Period. 
 
Section 10.03. Notice of Claim; Defense. An Indemnified Party shall give the applicable Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of
any Third-Party Claim that may give rise to any indemnification obligation under this Article X, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense (at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) of any such claim through
counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s own choosing by so notifying such Indemnified Party within 30 days of the first receipt by the Indemnifying Party of such written notice from such Indemnified Party. Failure to give such written notice shall
affect the indemnification obligations only to the extent of actual prejudice. If, under applicable standards of professional conduct and in the good faith judgment of counsel to both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, a conflict with
respect to any significant issue between any Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such additional counsel as may be required to
be retained in order to resolve such conflict. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel
employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement,
compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that, by its terms, forever discharges and releases the Indemnified Party and its Affiliates from the full amount of liability in connection with such
Third Party Claim; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to, and the Indemnified Party shall not be required to agree to, the entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement that (i) provides for injunctive or other non-monetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party or any Affiliate of the Indemnified Party or (ii) does not include 
 

-59- 

 
as an unconditional term
thereof the giving of a release and discharge from all liability with respect to such claim by each claimant or plaintiff to each Indemnified Party that is the subject of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall not agree to any
settlement of, or entry of any judgment arising from, any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
 
Section 10.04. Non-Assumption of Defense. The
Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period following expiration of the notice period in Section 10.03 during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the
defense of any such Third-Party Claim (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party will have failed to give written notice of the Third-Party Claim as provided above). 
 
Section 10.05. Indemnified Party’s Cooperation as to Proceedings. If the Indemnifying Party
chooses to defend or prosecute a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party in the defense or prosecution thereof, which cooperation shall include to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnifying
Party, the following: 
 
(a) providing the
Indemnifying Party and its counsel access to books, records and information of the Indemnified Party that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim; 
 
(b) making employees of the Indemnified Party available to the Indemnifying Party and its counsel on a mutually convenient basis to
provide additional information and any explanation of materials hereunder; 
 
(c) preserving and retaining, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the books, records and information of the Indemnified Party that are reasonably relevant to any such Third-Party Claim until the
proceeding with respect thereto is finally concluded. 
 
The
Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection with any of clause (a), (b), and (c) hereunder. 
 
Section 10.06. Limitations on Indemnification
Obligations. (a) Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, Seller’s aggregate liability for all Losses under this Article X shall be limited to 30% of the Final Purchase Price (the “Cap”). 
 
(b) (i) With respect to Environmental Losses, except to the
extent set forth in Section 10.06(b)(ii) below, Seller shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 10.01(c) unless all Environmental Losses exceed $420,000 (the “Environmental
Basket”), in which event Seller shall be required to indemnify Buyer Indemnified Parties for 90% of all Environmental Losses. 
 
(ii) Prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer may give Seller notice of Buyer’s intention to terminate all

69 

 
all Environmental Laws, in a
manner substantially similar to the use for such facility as of the Closing Date. The cost of all such Remedial Work shall be paid by the Seller, but Buyer shall reimburse Seller for 10% of such cost. Seller shall have the rights set forth in with
Section 10.01(c)(ii) as if Seller was “Buyer” as set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the cost of such Remedial Work is less than $100,000, Buyer shall pay such cost. Any amounts paid by Buyer pursuant to the terms
of this paragraph shall be considered Environmental Losses in calculating the Environmental Basket in accordance with Section 10.06(b)(i). 
 
(c) With respect to all Losses subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(i),

(a) The headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 
(b) Whenever the words “include,”
“includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 
 
(c) The words “hereof,” “herein” and “herewith” and words
of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any 
 

-71- 

particular provision of this Agreement, and article, section, paragraph, exhibit, schedule and annex
references are to the articles, sections, paragraphs, exhibits, schedules and annexes of this Agreement unless otherwise specified. 
 
(d) The meaning assigned to each term defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and the plural forms of such term,
and words denoting any gender shall include all genders. Where a word or phrase is defined herein, each of its other grammatical forms shall have a corresponding meaning. 
 
(e) A reference to any party to this Agreement or any other agreement or document shall include such
party’s successors and permitted assigns. 
 
(f) A reference to any legislation or to any provisions of any legislation shall include any amendment thereto, and any modification or re-enactment thereof, any legislative provision substituted therefor and all regulations and
statutory instruments issued thereunder or pursuant thereto. 
 
(g) The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the
parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. 
 
Section 11.05. Severability. The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable. Any term or provision of this
Agreement that is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable as to any Person or in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the
remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision as to any other Person or in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or
other Governmental Authority declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court or other Governmental Authority making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration,
area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the
intention and purpose of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. 
 
Section 11.06. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original by the party executing such counterpart and all of which when taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery by any party hereto of an executed signature page by facsimile shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 
Section 11.07. Entire Agreement; No Third-Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including all schedules, exhibits and annexes hereto) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and merges all prior negotiations, 
 

-72- 

agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters (other than as set forth in
the Confidentiality Agreement). 
 
Section 11.08.
Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the
other parties; provided, however, that Buyer may assign its rights and interests under this Agreement to any Affiliate which assumes Buyer’s obligations (after which Buyer shall no longer be subject to any such obligations). Any
purported assignment without such consent shall be void. Subject to the provisions of this Section 11.08, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and
assigns. 
 
Section 11.09. Specific
Performance. The parties agree that the assets and business of the Company as a going concern constitute unique property. There is no adequate remedy at law for the damage which either party might sustain for failure of the other party to
consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, accordingly, each party shall be entitled, as its option, to specific performance, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, to enforce the terms hereof. 
 
Section 11.10. Alternative Dispute Resolution. (a) The
parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement promptly by negotiations between executives who have authority to settle the controversy. Either party may give the other party written notice of
any dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within 20 days after delivery of said notice, executives representing Buyer and Seller shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem
necessary, to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the dispute. If the matter has not been resolved within 60 days of the disputing party’s notice, or if the parties fail to meet within 20 days, either Buyer or Seller may
initiate mediation of the controversy or claim as provided hereinafter. 
 
(b) If a negotiator intends to be accompanied at a meeting by an attorney, the other negotiator shall be given at least three business days’ notice of such intention and may also be accompanied by an attorney. All
negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the Federal Rules of Evidence and applicable state rules of evidence. 
 
(c) If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation as
provided herein, the parties shall endeavor to settle the dispute by mediation under the then current Center for Public Resources (“CPR”) Model Procedure for Mediation for Business Disputes. The neutral third party will be selected
from the CPR Panels of Neutrals. If the parties encounter difficulty in agreeing on a neutral, they will seek the assistance of CPR in the selection process. 
 
(d) Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement which has not been resolved by non-binding means as provided herein within 60
days of the initiation of such procedure may only be heard, adjudicated and determined in an action or proceeding filed, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11.10(e), in any court of any state of the United 
 

-73- 

States, or any United States federal court, having jurisdiction of the parties and having subject matter
jurisdiction. 
 
(e) Each party submits to the
jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any
such court. Each party also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so
brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Any party may make service on the other party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the
address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 11.02. Nothing in this Section 11.10(e), however, shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or in equity.
Each party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or in equity. 
 
(f) The procedures specified in this Section 11.10
shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of disputes between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement; provided, however, that a party may seek a preliminary injunction or other provisional judicial
relief if in its judgment such action is necessary to avoid irreparable damage or to preserve the status quo. Despite such action the parties will continue to participate in good faith in the procedures specified in this Section 11.10.

 
(g) All applicable statutes of limitation and
defenses based upon the passage of time shall be tolled while the procedures specified in this Section 11.10 are pending. The parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling. 
 
(h) Each party is required to continue to perform its
obligations under this Agreement pending final resolution of any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement. 
 
(i) All deadlines specified in this Section 11.10 may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties. 
 
(j) The provisions of this Section 11.10 shall not
apply to the matters described in Sections 1.04, 1.05, 1.06 and 1.07 of this Agreement, which shall be resolved as described therein. 
 
Section 11.11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Delaware, United States of America, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.
