thereof for the benefit of the Company; (ii) designate a designee who shall conduct the repurchase and shall cooperate with the Company
in order to hold the repurchased Restricted Shares in trust for future allocations of Ordinary Shares, issuable upon exercise of employee

or any other date determined by the Board, provided that on and before the respective preceding Vesting Dates Optionee shall be and shall
have been continuously employed by the company to provided services to the Company.

 

		(b)	An Option may be subject to such other terms and conditions as to the time or times when it may be exercised,
as well as the number of Shares which may be purchased under the Option (including by way of performance conditions), as the Board may
deem appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Options may vary.

 

		(c)	This Section shall apply, mutatis mutandis to issuance of Restricted Share.

		10.	Exercise of Option

 

		(a)	Options shall be exercised by the Optionee by giving written notice to the Company, in such form and method
as may be determined by the Board and when applicable, by the Trustee in accordance with the requirements of Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance,
which exercise shall be effective upon receipt of such notice by the Company together with full payment of the Exercise Price at the Company’s
principal office and the execution and delivery of any other document required pursuant to the applicable Grant Agreement and Applicable
Laws. The notice shall specify the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. The notice of exercise is irrevocable
and may not be rescinded or revised once it has been delivered to the Company; Optionee shall also send a copy of such notice of exercise
to the Trustee.

 

		(b)	Each Option granted under the Plan shall be exercisable following the Vesting Dates and for the number
of Shares as shall be provided in Exhibit B to the Grant Agreement. However, no Option shall be exercisable after the Expiration Date
set forth in the Grant Agreement.

 

		(c)	Unless determined otherwise by the Board, the exercise of Options may be made through a “Net Exercise
Mechanism” which shall operate as follows: the Optionee shall submit an exercise notice which shall include among others, the following
particulars: (i) the number of the vested Options to be exercised and (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price of all of the Options to be exercised.
Unless otherwise instructed by the Company, the benefit shall be calculated based on the difference between (i) the aggregate Exercise
Price of all the Options being exercised; and (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares underlying such Options as of the date
of such exercise notice received by the Company (the “Benefit”). The Company shall issue the Optionee or the Trustee,
as applicable, with a number of whole Shares calculated by dividing the Benefit with the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the date
of receipt of the exercise notice, as set forth in the Calculation Formula below (the “Net Exercise Mechanism”).

 

Calculation Formula:

 

A = the number of Options that the
Optionee requests to exercise as specified in the exercise notice;

 

B = the Fair Market Value on the date
of exercise;

 

C = the Exercise Price of each Option.

 

Number of Shares = A x ((B-C)/B)

 

The exercise of Options under this
Section 10(b) and the amount of tax payable in respect of the sale of issued Shares shall be subject to the provision of a tax ruling
of the Israeli Tax Authority received by the Company with respect to the Net Exercise Mechanism.

 

		(d)	The Options may be exercised by the Optionee in whole at any time or in part from time to time, to the
extent that the Options become vested and exercisable, prior to the Expiration Date, and provided that, subject to the provisions of Section
12 below, the Optionee is employed by or providing services to the Company or any of its Affiliates, at all times during the period beginning
with the Date of Grant and ending upon the date of exercise.

 

    -11-

     

    

 

		(e)	An Option may not be exercised unless, at the time the Optionee gives the notice of exercise, the Optionee
includes with such notice payment in cash or by bank check or by wire transfer of all withholding taxes due, if any, on account of the
Shares being purchased under the Option or gives other assurance satisfactory to the Board and the Trustee of the payment of applicable
withholding taxes. If the Company is not certain as to the sum of the applicable withholding tax, the Company may require that the Optionee
present a valid exemption from withholding, issued by the relevant tax authority in favour of the Company.

 

		(f)	Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option, the
method of payment and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws.

 

		11.	Right as a Shareholder

 

		(a)	Shares and Options issued pursuant to the Plan (including upon exercise of an Option) shall be issued
in the name of the Grantee, except for (i) Approved 102 Shares; and/or (ii) Approved 102 Options; and/or (iii) Shares issued pursuant
to the exercise of Approved 102 Options, all of which shall be issued to the Trustee in the name of the Grantee and held by the Trustee
at least until the End of the Period (unless otherwise permitted by the applicable provisions of Section 102 and the regulations promulgated
thereunder; it being understood that any release by the Trustee of the aforesaid Options or Shares may result in increased taxation),
or for such longer period, as may be set forth in the Grant Agreement.

 

		(b)	With respect to Options, prior to exercise and until the registration of the Optionee as a holder of Shares
in the Company’s register of shareholders, an Optionee, as such, shall have no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights
of or as a shareholder

 

		(c)	For the avoidance of doubt, an Optionee shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder
in the Company in respect of any Shares purchasable upon the exercise of any Options, until the Optionee shall have exercised the Option,
paid the Exercise Price and applicable tax thereof and have been registered as a holder of such Shares in the Company’s register
of shareholders upon exercise of the Options in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. In case of Options and Shares held by the
Trustee, the provisions of Section 15 below shall apply.

 

		(d)	If any law or regulation requires the Company to take any action with respect to the Shares specified
in such notice of exercise before the issuance thereof, then the date of their issuance shall be extended for the period necessary to
take such action.

 

		12.	Termination of Employment

 

		(a)	Unless the Board shall otherwise determine at or after the grant, in the event of termination of an Optionee’s
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates other than for Cause, Disability, retirement or death, all Options issued to that
Optionee, which are vested and exercisable at the time of such termination, may, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the provisions
of the Plan or the Grant Agreement, be exercised within 90 days following the date of such termination or such other period as may be
specified in the Grant Agreement or determined by the Board but in any event, no later than the Expiration Date. If, on the date of termination,
the Shares subject to the Option have not vested in their entirety, any Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall expire
and be of no further force and effect and shall become issuable to other participants under the Plan, at the Board’s sole discretion.
To the extent the vested portion of the Option is not so exercised and fully paid for within the time specified herein, such unexercised
vested portion of the Option shall expire and be of no further force and effect, and the Shares covered by such unexercised vested portion
of the Option shall revert to the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt - in the event that in connection therewith, any Approved 102 Options
are still held by the Trustee, the trust with respect thereto shall ipso facto expire and all of the Shares covered by the vested and
unvested portion of such Approved 102 Options shall revert to the Plan and be subject to issuance if the Optionee did not exercise the
Options within the above stated period. For the purposes of this section 12, termination of employment or engagement shall mean the date
the termination notice was given by the Optionee or his/her employer (irrespective of the effective date of such termination), unless
otherwise agreed to in writing.

 

    -12-

     

    

 

		(b)	If the Optionee’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate thereof, or, if applicable, the rendering
of services by the Optionee to the Company or an Affiliate thereof is terminated because of Optionee’s death, retirement or Disability,
then Optionee’s Options may be exercised, only to the extent that such Options are vested and exercisable by Optionee on the termination
date or as otherwise determined by the Board. Such Options, to the extent vested as of the termination date, must be exercised by Optionee
(or Optionee’s legal representative or authorized assignee), if at all, within eighteen (18) months after the termination date in
the event of death, or within twelve (12) months from the date of termination in the event of Disability, or any other period determined
by the Board. If on the date of termination there are Options, which have not vested, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the
Options shall revert to the Plan unless determined otherwise under a Grant Agreement or by the Board. If the Option is not exercised within
the time specified herein or other period determined by the Board, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall
revert to the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt - in the event that in connection therewith any Approved 102 Options are still held by
the Trustee, the trust with respect thereto shall ipso facto expire and all of the Shares covered by the vested and unvested portion of
such unexercised Approved 102 Options shall revert to the Plan.

 

		(c)	In the event of termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company or its Affiliates for Cause,
or if applicable, the termination of services rendered by the Optionee to the Company or its Affiliates for Cause (or if earlier, upon
the Optionee’s receipt of notice of termination for Cause), all outstanding Options granted to such Optionee (whether vested or
not) shall, to the extent not theretofore exercised, immediately expire and shall be of no further force and effect as of the date of
such termination and shall revert to the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Board.

 

		(d)	With respect to an Unapproved 102 Option, if the Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company or any
Affiliate, the Optionee shall extend to the Company and/or its Affiliate security or guarantee for the payment of tax due at the time
of sale of Shares, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102.

 

		13.	Adjustments

 

Unless otherwise provided in the Grant
Agreement, upon the occurrence of any of the following described events, Grantee’s rights to purchase Shares under the Plan shall
be adjusted as hereafter provided:

 

		(a)	Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the Company, the number of
issued 102 Shares, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, the number of Shares which have been reserved for issuance
under the Plan but as to which no Options have yet been issued or which have reverted to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an
Option, as well as the Exercise Price per share of Shares covered by each such outstanding Option, shall be proportionately and equitably
adjusted for any share split, reverse share split, bonus shares (shares dividend), combination or reclassification of the Shares, all
only if such triggering event generally applies to all Shares and so as to maintain the proportionate number of Shares without changing
the aggregate purchase price, provided, however, that (i) fractions of a Share will not be issued but will be rounded down to the nearest
whole Share; (ii) that to the extent the Company does not have sufficient distributable profits or premium, that the Exercise Price of
any Option may not be decreased to below the par value of the Shares; and (iii) no adjustment shall be made by reason of the distribution
of subscription rights (rights offering) on outstanding stock. Such adjustment shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that
respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Upon happening of any of the foregoing, the class and aggregate number of Shares issuable
pursuant to the Plan (as set forth in Section 5 hereof), in respect of which Options have not yet been exercised, shall be appropriately
adjusted, all as will be determined by the Board whose determination shall be final. With respect to Approved 102 Shares and Approved
102 Options, all of the Shares resulting from the adjustments will also be deposited with the Trustee on the same terms and conditions
as the original Options or Shares.

 

    -13-

     

    

 

		(b)	Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of a voluntary dissolution or liquidation of the
Company while unexercised Options remain outstanding under the Plan, then the Board, in its own discretion, may determine that such outstanding
Options may be exercised in full by the Grantees as of the effective date of any such liquidation or dissolution of the company without
regard to the vesting provisions of Section __ of the Plan. In case the Board determined that the outstanding Options may be exercised,
then all such outstanding Options may be exercised in full by the Grantees giving notice in writing to the Company of their intention
to so exercise.

 

		(c)	Transaction 

 

		i.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all unvested Options and Restricted Shares shall fully
vest immediately prior to the consummation of a Transaction, provided, howeverm that the Board shall determine whether such acceleration
shall apply to Grantees who work less than one year with the Company at the time of consummation of the Transaction.

 

		ii.	In the event of a Transaction, each outstanding unexercised Option and Restricted Share may – with
the consent of the Board and the Successor Company or its Affiliate (as applicable) – be assumed by the Successor Company or an
Affiliate of the Successor Company, or may be replaced by a share option, or a share, as applicable, in, or right against, the Successor
Company or an Affiliate of the Successor Company, and appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number of shares (and respectively,
in the case of Options, the Exercise Price per Share) in order to reflect such an assumption or replacement, based on the Fair Market
Value of the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the shares or other assets underlying the post-assumption or replacing options - all
subject to the determination of the Board, which determination shall be in its sole discretion and final.

 

		iii.	In the event that the Successor Company does not assume or substitute the Options and/or the Restricted
Shares, or in the event that the Board decides that the Options and/or Restricted Shares shall not be assumed or substituted, the Board
may decide – at its sole discretion – that the vesting periods set forth in one, some or all of the Grant Agreements (in the
case of one or some, as aforesaid, the decision as to which one or which ones shall be at the sole discretion of the Board) shall be fully
or partially accelerated. If as a result of such acceleration an Option becomes vested and exercisable, the Board shall notify the Optionee
in writing or electronically that the Option shall be fully exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice,
and the Option shall terminate upon the expiration of such period if not exercised earlier by the Optionee; provided, however, that the
Board may elect to apply the provisions of clause (vi) below to the accelerated Options, in lieu of providing notification as set forth
above.

 

		iv.	For the purposes of this section, the Option and Restricted Share shall be considered assumed if, following
a Transaction, the Optionee receives the right, under similar terms as the terms of the Option or Restricted Share, as applicable, to
purchase (for the same purchase price, as appropriately adjusted), for each Share subject to the Option or Restricted Share immediately
prior to the Transaction, the consideration (whether shares, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Transaction by holders
of Shares of the same class for each Share held on the effective date of the Transaction (and if such holders were offered a choice of
consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such
consideration received in the Transaction is not solely ordinary shares of the Successor Company or its Affiliate, the Board may, with
the consent of the Successor Company, provide for each Optionee to receive solely ordinary shares (or their equivalent) of the Successor
Company or its Affiliate equal in Fair Market Value to the per share consideration received by holders of Shares in the Transaction; and
provided further that the Board may determine, in its discretion that in lieu of such assumption or substitution of Options and Restricted
shares for options and restricted shares of the Successor Company, or its Affiliate, such Options and Restricted Shares will be substituted
for any other type of asset or property which is fair under the circumstances, including, without limitation, cash.

 

		v.	The issuance of 102 Shares or Options under the Plan shall in no way affect the right of the Company to
adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or
sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

    -14-

     

    

 

		vi.	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a Transaction, the Board – at
its sole discretion – may determine that all Options and Restricted Shares which are “in the money” with respect to
the Transaction, shall be replaced with the right of the Optionee to receive the difference between the per-share consideration being
paid in the Transaction for each Share, and the Exercise Price, minus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes, and all Options
and/or Restricted Shares which are not “in the money” may, at the full discretion of the Board, be cancelled or assumed as
aforesaid. In addition, the Board may – at its sole discretion - decide that the Optionees shall be subject to all or some of the
same terms and conditions, and risks (including, without limitation, escrows, liability for representations, uncertain contingent payments,
and uncertain milestone payments), as the risks being taken by the Company’s shareholders in the Transaction, pro rata and mutatis
mutandis, and each Optionee, by signing his Grant Agreement, agrees that the agreement covering the Transaction may contain provisions
to that effect, without the need for the Optionee to execute, or otherwise consent to the provisions of, the agreement covering the Transaction.

 

		14.	Designation of Shares and/or Options Pursuant to Section 102

 

		(a)	The Board may designate Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options as either CGO or OIO. The Company’s
election of the type of Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options to be issued to Employees (the “Election”)
shall be appropriately filed with the Israeli Tax Authorities before the Date of Grant of any Approved 102 Share and/or Approved 102 Option.

 

		(b)	The Election of the type of Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options to be issued to Employees,
shall become effective beginning on the first Date of Grant of Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options under the Plan and shall
remain in effect until at least the end of the year following the year during which the Company first issued the Approved 102 Shares and/or
Approved 102 Options under the Election. The Election shall obligate the Company to issue only the type of Approved 102 Shares and/or
Approved 102 Options it has elected, and shall apply to all Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options issued during the period indicated
herein, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 102(g) of the Tax Ordinance. For the avoidance of doubt, such Election shall
not prevent the Company from issuing Unapproved 102 Shares, Unapproved 102 Options or 3(i) Options, simultaneously or otherwise.

 

		(c)	No Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options may be granted under this Plan, unless and until, the
Plan shall be appropriately filed with the Israeli Tax Authorities at least thirty (30) days before the first Date of Grant.

 

		(d)	Each Grant Agreement shall state, inter alia, the type of Share and/or Option issued thereunder
(whether a CGO, OIO, Unapproved 102 Shares, Unapproved 102 Option or a 3(i) Option), and if applicable, the vesting provisions and the
Exercise Price.

 

		(e)	All Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options must be held in trust by a Trustee, as described in
Section 15 below.

 

		(f)	For the avoidance of doubt, the designation of 102 Shares and/or 102 Options shall be subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in Section 102.

 

		(g)	With regard to Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options, the provisions of the Plan and the Grant
Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of Section 102 and the Tax Assessing Officer’s approval, and the said provisions and
approval shall be deemed an integral part of the Plan and of the Grant Agreements. Any provision of Section 102 and/or the said approval
which is necessary in order to receive and/or to keep any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance, which is not expressly
specified in the Plan or the Grant Agreement, shall be considered binding upon the Company and the Grantee. If any provision of the Plan
should present any inconsistency or contradiction with Section 102, the provisions of Section 102 shall prevail.

 

    -15-

     

    

 

		15.	Trustee

 

		(a)	Any Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options shall be issued pursuant to the Plan to a Trustee.
The Trustee shall hold such Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options and any Shares issued upon the exercise of any of such Approved
102 Options, in trust pursuant to the Company’s instructions from time to time. The Company shall have the right to replace the
Trustee with another trustee, which shall then become the Trustee under the Plan, subject to the approval of the Israeli Tax Authority,
and without the need to receive the consent of the Grantees. The Trustee shall be entitled to make such provisions and take such steps
as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of all taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to the Exercise of
the Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options. The Company shall deliver the Trustee all the necessary information required by it.
The Trustee shall be exempt from any liability with respect to any action or decision duly taken in its capacity as Trustee, provided
however that the Trustee has conducted its duties in good faith.

 

		(b)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options issued
under the Plan, shall be issued to the Trustee and held for the benefit of the Grantee at least until the End of the Period, unless otherwise
agreed by the Israeli Tax Authority or as may otherwise be permitted pursuant to Section 102 and the regulations promulgated thereunder.
All Shares issued upon exercise of Approved 102 Options, all of the rights attached to and/or in connection with such Approved 102 Shares,
Approved 102 Options and/or Shares issued upon exercise of Approved 102 Options, including without limitation dividend in shares, shall
be issued to the Trustee and held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Grantee at least until the End of the Period and shall be subject
to the same tax treatment as the treatment to which such Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options are subject. In case the requirements
pursuant to Section 102 for an Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options are not met, then the Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved
102 Options may be regarded as Unapproved 102 Shares or Unapproved 102 Options, as applicable, all in accordance with the provisions of
Section 102.

 

		(c)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, but subject to subsection (g) below, the Trustee shall not carry
out any transaction or take any action with respect to Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options or Shares issued upon exercise
of the Options thereof, will not transfer, assign, release, pledge, mortgage voluntarily, or grant in connection therewith any proxy or
assignment deed, whether immediately effective or effective at a future date, other than by will or by operation of law, until after the
full payment of the Grantee’s tax liabilities arising from the issuance of such Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options
and their Exercise or after guarantying the payment of said taxes. If such Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options or Shares pursuant
to the exercise of such Options have been transferred by will or by operation of law, the provisions of Section 102 will apply with respect
to the heirs or the transferees of the Grantee, as the case may be.

 

		(d)	Upon receipt of Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options, the Grantee will sign an undertaking
to release the Trustee from any liability in respect of any action or decision duly taken and bona fide executed in relation with the
Plan, or any Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options or Shares issued and held by Trustee pursuant thereto, released or transferred
by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of Section 102.

 

    -16-

     

    

 

		(e)	Except as otherwise permitted under the provisions of Section 102 and any ruling issued by the Israeli
Tax Authority, until the End of the Period, a Grantee may not exercise Approved 102 Shares
and/or CGO. At any time thereafter, each Grantee may
require (but shall not be obligated to require) the Trustee to transfer to the Grantee, any
Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options or Shares issued pursuant to the exercise
of such Approved 102 Options, provided that (1) such transfer is in compliance with all Applicable
Laws, and (2) such Awards shall not be transferred to the Grantee before all applicable tax due pursuant to such an exercise has
been paid in accordance with Section 102, and the Trustee has received an acknowledgement from the Israeli Tax Authority that the Grantee
has paid any applicable tax due pursuant to Section 102. Notwithstanding the above, if any such sale or release occurs prior to the End
of the Period, the sanctions under Section 102 shall apply to, and shall be borne by, such Grantee, except to the extent that the Israeli
Tax Authority agrees otherwise.

 

		(f)	The Company shall not issue or grant Approved 102 Shares and/or Approved 102 Options to any Grantee unless
the Grantee has given a statement in writing that he is familiar with the provisions of Section 102 and the type of Shares and/or Options
issued to him, that he accepts the provisions of the Trust Agreement and that he undertakes not to exercise the Shares and/or Options
before the End of the Period.

 

		16.	Dividends

 

With respect to all Shares (but excluding,
for the avoidance of any doubt, any unexercised Options) issued, including, without limitation, upon the exercise of Options exercised
by an Optionee, and held by the Grantee or by the Trustee, as the case may be, the Grantee (or the Trustee of his behalf, in the case
of 102 Shares or Shares issued upon the exercise of 102 Options) shall be entitled to receive dividends in accordance with the quantity
of such Shares, subject to the provisions of the Company’s Articles of Association (and all amendments thereto) and subject to any
applicable taxation on distribution of dividends, and, when applicable, subject to the provisions of Section 102.

 

		17.	Restrictions on Assignability and Sale of Options/Shares; Power-of-Attorney

 

		(a)	No Option or any right with respect thereto, shall be assignable, transferable or given as collateral
or any right with respect to it given to any third party whatsoever, except as specifically allowed under the Plan, and during the lifetime
of the Optionee, each and all of such Optionee’s rights to purchase Shares hereunder shall be exercisable only by the Optionee.
Any such action made directly or indirectly, for an immediate validation or for a future one, shall be void.

 

		(b)	So long as Options and/or Shares are held by the Trustee on behalf of the Optionee, all rights of the
Optionee over the Shares are personal, cannot be transferred, assigned, pledged or mortgaged, other than by will or pursuant to the laws
of descent and distribution.

 

		(c)	No Optionee shall have a right of first refusal or pre-emptive right in relation with any sale or issuance
of shares in the Company, unless the Optionee is entitled to such right pursuant to the Articles of Association and subject and in accordance
to the provisions thereof, as may be amended from time to time.

 

		(d)	Any Grantee to whom Shares are issued pursuant to the Plan, or for whom Shares are issued to the Trustee
under the Plan, shall be entitled (in case the Shares are held by the Trustee – such entitlement shall be exercised by the Trustee)
to all rights and privileges of holders of Shares, and shall be subject to (i) the provisions of the Company’s incorporation documents,
as shall be amended from time to time, including, without limitation, right of first refusal/offer, preemptive rights, and “drag-along”
provisions and right to receive notices for, and vote on, any meeting of the Company’s shareholder; (ii) any restrictions on transferability
of shares pursuant to any instrument to which the Company is a party, including any shareholder agreements.

		18.	Amendment and Termination of the Plan

 

		(a)	Subject to Applicable Laws and Section 102, the Board may, at any time and from time to time, terminate,
alter, adjust, suspend or amend the Plan, or any part thereof, in any respect, except that if at any time the approval of the shareholders
of the Company is required pursuant to the Israeli Companies Law, 1999 or the regulations promulgated thereunder, the Board may not effect
such modification or amendment without such approval.

 

		(b)	Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Board’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it
hereunder with respect to Shares and/or Options issued under the Plan prior to the date of such termination, and the Plan shall continue
to apply to those Shares and Options issued or granted prior to its termination (including Shares issued after the termination of the
Plan but which were the subject of Options which were granted prior to the expiration of the Plan).

 

		19.	Integration of Section 102 And Tax Assessing Officer’s Approval

 

		(a)	With regard to 102 Shares and 102 Options, the provisions of the Plan and/or the Grant Agreement shall
be subject to the provisions of Section 102 and the Tax Assessing Officer’s approval, and the said Section 102 and approval shall
be deemed an integral part of the Plan and of the Grant Agreement.

 

		(b)	Any provision of Section 102 and/or the said approval which is necessary in order to receive and/or to
keep any tax benefit pursuant to Section 102 of the Tax Ordinance, which is not expressly specified in the Plan or the Grant Agreement,
shall be considered binding upon the Grantees, except as may be otherwise agreed by the Company.

 

		20.	General Provisions

 

		(a)	The Company and, if applicable, the Trustee, shall have the right to deduct from all amounts payable to
a Grantee in cash (whether under this Plan or otherwise) any taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of Shares and/or Options
under this Plan, or, at the Company’s discretion, demand as a condition to the sale of Shares or Option or the release of same by
the Trustee, that the Grantee shall pay to the Company, in cash, or otherwise secure to the Company’s satisfaction, the tax amount
required to be withheld.

 

		(b)	The Company may place a legend on each share certificate to the effect that such shares were acquired
pursuant to an investment representation and are subject to limitations on offers, transfers and sales as the case may be.

 

		(c)	The Plan, the issuance and exercise of Shares and/or Options thereunder, and the other obligations of
the Company under the Plan, shall be subject to all Applicable Laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or
governmental agency as may be required. To the extent required in order to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company, in its discretion,
may postpone any issuance and any exercise of Shares and/or Options, or any other action permitted under the Plan. The Company may be
permitted, with reasonable diligence, to complete such stock exchange, or similar listing, registration, qualification of such Shares
or other required action under any Applicable Laws, rules, or regulations. The Company may require any Grantee to make such representations
and furnish such information, as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares in compliance with
Applicable Laws, rules, and regulations. The Company shall not be obligated, by virtue of any provision of the Plan, to recognize the
exercise of any Option or to otherwise sell or issue Shares in violation of any such Applicable Laws, rules, or regulations.

		(d)	Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver
certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to (i) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are
necessary or advisable, and/or (ii) compliance with any exemption, completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares
under any applicable laws or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary. The Company will be under no
obligation to register the Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission or to effect compliance with the exemption, registration,
qualification or listing requirements of any state Securities Laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will
have no liability for any inability or failure to do so.

 

		(e)	Except when otherwise indicated by the context, words in the masculine gender used in the Plan shall include
the feminine gender, the singular shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular.

 

		(f)	The validity, construction, interpretation, administration and effect of the Plan and any rules, regulations
and actions relating to the Plan will be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Israel, notwithstanding
the conflicts of laws principles of any jurisdiction. The competent courts in Tel Aviv shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over
any dispute with regard to any controversy or claim arising under, out of, or in connection with this Plan, its validity, its interpretation,
its execution or any breach or claimed breach thereof.

 

		(g)	In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to
an effective registration statement filed under Securities Laws, the Grantee undertakes that he/she shall not, directly or indirectly,
sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any Optionor Share or enter into any other contract for
the purchase thereof, purchase any Option or Share or enter into any other contract for the sale thereof, or otherwise dispose of or transfer,
or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to any Shares acquired under a Grant Agreement without the prior
written consent of the Company or its underwriters. Such restriction (the “Market Stand-Off”) shall be in effect for
such period of time following the date of the final prospectus for the offering as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters.
In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization
or any similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, in accordance with the
provisions of this Plan, any new, substituted or additional securities which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect
to any Shares subject to the Market Stand-Off, or into which such Shares thereby become convertible, shall immediately be subject to the
Market Stand-Off. In order to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions until the end of the applicable
stand-off period. The Company’s underwriters shall be beneficiaries of the agreement set forth in this Section. This Section shall
not apply to Shares registered in the public offering under the Securities Laws.

		21.	Date of Grant

 

Subject to Applicable Laws, the “Date
of Grant” of an Option shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Board makes the determination to grant such Option,
as applicable, or such other date determined by the Board, subject to any other determination of the Israeli Tax Authority; provided that
an Option shall expire automatically if the Grant Agreement relating thereto is not executed by the Grantee within 90 days thereafter.

 

		22.	Tax Consequences

 

		(a)	Any tax consequences and/or obligations and/or other compulsory payments arising from the issuance of
Shares and/or issuance or exercise of any Option, from the payment for or from the disposition of Shares covered thereby or from any other
event or act (whether of the Grantee, of the Company, of any Affiliates or of the Trustee) hereunder, shall be borne solely by the Grantee.
The Company and/or the Trustee shall withhold taxes according to the requirements under the Tax Ordinance and/or the Applicable Laws,
rules, and regulations. Furthermore, each Grantee shall indemnify the Company and any Affiliate that employs or engages the Grantee and/or
the Trustee, and/or the Company’s and/or any Affiliate’s shareholders and/or directors and/or office holders (“Indemnified
Party”), and hold them harmless against and from any and all liability for any such tax or interest or penalty thereon, including
without limitation, liabilities relating to the necessity to withhold, or to have withheld, any such tax (and compulsory payment, if any)
from any payment made to the Grantee, provided however that the Indemnified Party has conducted his duties in good faith. Except as otherwise
required by law, the Company shall not be obligated to honour the exercise of any Option by or on behalf of an Optionee or the disposition
of any Share by a Grantee until all tax consequences (if any) arising from the exercise of such Options are resolved in a manner reasonably
acceptable to the Company.

 

		(b)	The receipt of an Award and/or the acquisition of Shares issued upon the exercise of the Awards may result
in tax consequences. The description of tax consequences set forth in the Plan or any Appendix hereto does not purport to be complete,
up-to-date or to take into account any special circumstances relating to a Grantee.

 

		(c)	GRANTEES ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH A TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF RECEIVING ANY
AWARD IN LIGHT OF HIS PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

 

		23.	Overseas Grantees

 

Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Plan, but subject to Applicable Laws and Section 102 when applicable, the Board may, in respect of Shares and/or Options granted
to Grantees who are or may become subject to taxation outside Israel on their remuneration and/or are Employees of or provide services
to an Affiliate outside of Israel, amend or alter the provisions of this Plan as the Board considers necessary or desirable to mitigate,
take account of or comply with relevant overseas taxation, securities, exchange control or other applicable laws. Any such amendment or
alteration may be carried out by way of the adoption of one or more appendixes to the Plan.

 

    -20-

     

    

 

		24.	Data Privacy

 

Grantee, by signing the Grant Agreement,
explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Grantee’s personal data
as described in this Grant Agreement and any other Option grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Company and its Affiliates
for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing Grantee’s participation in this Plan. Grantee understands that Grantee
is not obligated under law to provide any information or consent to the collection, use and transfer of any Data (as defined below). However,
without such consent participation in this Plan may not be possible. Grantee understands that the Company may hold, collect and produce
certain personal information about Grantee, including, but not limited to, Grantee’s name, home address and telephone number, date
of birth, identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all Options
or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, cancelled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Grantee’s favour, for the purpose
of implementing, administering and managing this Plan (“Data”). Grantee understands that Data may be transferred to
any third parties assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of this Plan, as well as to prospective
acquirers of the Company or investors therein for due diligence purposes. Grantee understands that the recipients of the Data may be located
in Israel or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Grantee’s
country. Grantee hereby authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form,
including further transfers, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing Grantee’s participation in this Plan, including
any transfer of such Data as may be necessary or appropriate to a broker, escrow agent or other third party with whom the Issued Shares
may be deposited.

 

		25.	Non-Exclusivity of the Plan

 

The adoption of the Plan by the Board
shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem
desirable, including, without limitation, the issuing of Shares and/or Options otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may
be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.

 

		26.	Inability to Obtain Authority

 

The inability of the Company to obtain
authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary for the
lawful issuance of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares
as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

 

		27.	Multiple Agreements

 

The terms of each Grant Agreement
may differ for each Grantee under the Plan at the same time or at any other time. The Board may also make more than one issuance of Shares
and/or Options to a given Grantee during the term of the Plan, either in addition to, or in substitution for, one or more previous issuances
to that Grantee.

This SECURITY AND ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of August 12, 2021, is made and entered into by

herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” 
 W I T N E S E T H : 

WHEREAS, the Persons identified on Annex 1 (each an “Equity Seller”) own the Equity Interests; 

WHEREAS, the Persons identified on Annex 2, as may be updated from time to time by Sapphire to the extent necessary to consummate the transfer
of the Businesses, subject to receiving the consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (each an “Asset Seller” and together with Sapphire and the Equity Sellers, the “Sellers”) own
the Transferred Assets; 
 WHEREAS, Sellers and certain of their Subsidiaries are engaged in the Businesses and utilize the Transferred
Assets to operate the Businesses; 
 WHEREAS, Buyer desires to purchase the Equity Interests and the Transferred Assets and assume the
Assumed Liabilities from Sellers, and Sapphire desires to sell and to cause the other Sellers to sell the Equity Interests and the Transferred Assets and transfer the Assumed Liabilities to Buyer, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
hereinafter set forth; 
 WHEREAS, all of the Put Option Assets and Put Option Equity are subject to the put option agreements (“Put
Option Agreements”) each signed as of the date hereof by and among Sapphire, Willis / GS France, and Willis Nederland BV (the “Put Option Beneficiaries”), on the one hand, and Gallagher International Holdings (US) Inc., on
the other hand, pursuant to which the Put Option Beneficiaries have been granted the option to sell to Buyer the Put Option Assets and Put Option Equity, subject to the terms and conditions of the Local Transfer Agreements (as defined below)
applicable in respect of France and the Netherlands (the “Transfer Agreements”); 
 WHEREAS, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) the Parties expressly agree and acknowledge that with respect to the Put Option Assets and Put Option Equity, the applicable Put Option Beneficiary, as the case may be, may in its absolute
discretion decide whether or not to accept the offer by Buyer to acquire the Put Option Assets and Put Option Equity made pursuant to the Put Option Agreements, and (ii) as of the date hereof, no Seller or any of its Affiliates is bound to sell
or transfer or procure the sale or transfer of the Put Option Assets and Put Option Equity; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the

 ARTICLE I 

DEFINITIONS 

Section 1.01. Definitions. As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“Accounting Principles” means the principles, practices, policies, judgments and methodologies set forth on
Exhibit A.  
 “Acquisition Proposal”
means, other than the Transactions, any third Person offer, proposal or inquiry relating to all or a material portion of the Businesses, the Transferred Assets or the Transferred Entities, or any third Person indication of interest in, any such
acquisition or purchase, whether direct or indirect, and whether by way of stock purchase, merger, consolidation, share exchange or business combination, other than any offer, proposal or inquiry for the capital stock of Sapphire or all or
substantially all of the businesses of Sapphire that does not require or contemplate the termination of this Agreement. 

“Action” means any action, claim, suit, litigation (in law or equity), demand, complaint, summons, charge, examination,

 36 

 
Sapphire (i) shall use reasonable best efforts to effect, or cause the other Sellers or the Transferred Entities, at all times in accordance with applicable Law (including notifying clients
and customers), to effect, all transfers and take all such actions as are necessary so that as of the Relevant Closing (A) the internal restructuring transactions set forth on Schedule 2.06(a)(i)(A), shall be
consummated in the manner described on such Schedule, (B) assets, properties and businesses of the Transferred Entities that, if held by the Retained Entities, would constitute Excluded Assets (applying Section 2.03
mutatis mutandis) (collectively, the “Non-Business Assets”) shall be transferred to any of the Retained Entities and (C) except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, any
Liability of the Transferred Entities that, if a Liability of a Retained Entity, would constitute an Excluded Liability applying Section 2.05 mutatis mutandis (collectively, the “Non-Business Liabilities”) shall be assigned to any of the Retained Entities and (ii) may effect, or cause the Transferred Entities to effect, any transfer or other action as necessary to undertake any
other restructurings that would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate (A) to materially interfere with, prevent or materially delay the ability of Sellers to perform their obligations under the Transaction Documents or
consummate the transactions contemplated thereby, (B) to change the overall scope of the Businesses being sold to Buyer under this Agreement or the allocation of assets and Liabilities otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or (C) to

on Schedules 2.06(a)(i)(A) in respect of any Brexit Assets shall be completed without the prior written consent of Buyer (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (4) with respect to UK Newco, Sapphire shall consult in good
faith with Buyer regarding such Restructurings and shall consider in good faith Buyer’s reasonable comments in respect of such implementation. At Buyer’s reasonable request, Sapphire shall provide Buyer with reasonable updates from time to
time on the status of the Restructurings. 
 Section 2.07. Limitation on Assignment. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an assignment of, or an agreement to assign, any Transferred Asset (or any right thereunder) or any Non-Business Asset (or right thereunder) (such
Transferred Assets and Non-Business Assets, collectively, the “Non-Assignable Assets”), if an attempted assignment or agreement to assign, respectively,
without the consent or approval of any third Person or Governmental Authority, would constitute a breach thereunder or a violation of applicable Law or Contract to which any Party or its Affiliates are a party. Once such consent or approval is
obtained from such Person or Governmental Authority, in each case, in accordance with Section 5.05, the applicable Non-Assignable Asset shall be deemed to have been automatically
assigned and transferred to, and assumed by, the applicable Party intended to receive such assignment on the terms set forth in this Agreement, as of the Relevant Closing, for no additional consideration. 

  
 37

Sapphire shall deliver to Buyer a preliminary closing statement setting forth in reasonable detail (and together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation) its good faith estimates of Cash of the Transferred Entities and Required Cash and
any other Cash that constitutes a Transferred Asset as of immediately prior to the Principal Closing (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Cash which constitutes an Excluded Asset) (“Closing Date Cash”), Net Working
Capital of the Transferred Entities or that otherwise constitutes a Transferred Asset or Assumed Liability as of immediately prior to the Principal Closing (“Closing Date Net Working Capital”), Indebtedness of the Transferred
Entities or that otherwise constitutes an Assumed Liability (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Indebtedness which constitutes an Excluded Liability) as of immediately prior to the Principal Closing (“Closing Date
Indebtedness”), Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash as of immediately prior to the Principal Closing (“Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash”) and the calculation by Sellers of the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price based upon
such estimates (such statement, the “Preliminary Closing Statement”). The Preliminary Closing Statement shall be prepared in good faith in accordance with the Accounting Principles. Upon receipt of such Preliminary Closing
Statement, Buyer shall be permitted to review and provide reasonable comments thereto, and Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any disputes with respect to such estimate and Seller shall reasonably consider any such comments
made by Buyer in respect thereof and if the parties agree on any changes to the Preliminary Closing Statement, such revisions shall be deemed included in the applicable calculations for purposes of the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price. 

(b) The amount to be paid at the Principal Closing with respect to the Upfront Purchase Price (the “Preliminary Upfront Purchase

Post-Closing Adjustments. 
 (a) Within ninety (90) days after the Principal Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver
to Sellers a proposed final statement (the “Fiduciary Adjustment Statement”) reflecting Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash (as may be adjusted pursuant to this
Section 2.11, the “Final Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash”). 

  
 41 

 (b) Within one hundred eighty (180) days after the Principal Closing Date, Buyer shall
prepare and deliver to Sellers a proposed final closing statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) reflecting Buyer’s calculation of: 

(i) the Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Net Working Capital and Closing Date Indebtedness; 

(ii) the difference between the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price and the final Upfront Purchase Price shown on the Final
Closing Statement (by substituting the Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Indebtedness shown on the Final Closing Statement for those previously appearing on the Preliminary Closing Statement); and 

(iii) the resulting final Upfront Purchase Price (as may be adjusted pursuant to this Section 2.11,
the “Final Upfront Purchase Price”). 
 (c) The Final Closing Statement and the Fiduciary Adjustment Statement shall be
prepared in good faith and in accordance with the Accounting Principles and the definitions contained herein. Nothing in this Section 2.11 is intended to be used to adjust for errors, omissions or inconsistencies that may
be found with respect to the Business Financial Data, or any actual or alleged failure of the Business Financial Data to be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Buyer shall not be permitted to introduce accounting principles, procedures, policies,
practices, estimates, judgments or methodologies that are inconsistent with the Accounting Principles in the preparation of the Final Closing Statement or the determination of Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash or Closing Date
Indebtedness. 
 (d) Sellers may dispute Buyer’s calculation of the Final Closing Statement (or any element thereof) or the Fiduciary
Adjustment Statement by notifying Buyer in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement (the “Notice of Objection”), within sixty (60) days after Sellers’ receipt of the Final Closing
Statement or within fifteen (15) days of Sellers’ receipt of the Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, as applicable. Any item or amount as to which no dispute is raised in the Notice of Objection shall be final, conclusive and binding on the
Parties for all purposes hereunder, unless such item or amount is by its nature adjusted in connection with the matters raised in the Notice of Objection. In the event that Sellers do not deliver a Notice of Objection to Buyer within such sixty
(60) or fifteen (15) day period, as applicable, Sellers shall be deemed to have accepted Buyer’s calculation of the items set forth in the Final Closing Statement or Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, as applicable. In connection with
the review by Sellers of the Final Closing Statement and Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, Buyer shall (i) permit Sellers and their Representatives to have reasonable access (subject to the execution of customary work paper access letters, if
requested) to the books, records and other documents (including work papers, schedules, financial statements and memoranda) pertaining to the preparation of the Final Closing Statement or Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, as applicable and the
calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Indebtedness and Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash and (ii) provide Sellers and their Representatives reasonable access to employees and accountants
(subject to the execution of customary access letters, if requested) of Buyer and the Transferred Entities as reasonably requested by Sellers to verify the accuracy of the Final Closing Statement or Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, as applicable
(and, in each case, 

  
 42 

 
the elements thereof). Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the employees and accountants of Buyer and the Transferred Entities to cooperate in all reasonable respects with Sellers
and their Representatives in connection with their review of such work papers and other documents and information relating to the calculation of the Closing Date Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash, and
Closing Date Indebtedness, as Sellers may reasonably request and that are available to Buyer and its Affiliates, including the Transferred Entities, or any of their respective accountants. In the event that a Notice of Objection is timely delivered,
Buyer and Sellers shall use their respective good faith efforts for a period of forty five (45) days after Buyer’s receipt of the Notice of Objection, or such longer period as the Parties may agree in writing, to resolve any disagreements
set forth in the Notice of Objection. 
 (e) If Buyer and Sellers are unable to resolve such disagreements within such forty five
(45) day period (or such longer period as the Parties shall have agreed in writing), then KPMG LLP (or such other independent accounting firm of recognized international standing as may be mutually selected by Buyer and Sellers) (the
“Independent Firm”) shall be appointed, acting as an expert and not an arbitrator, to resolve any items that remain in dispute at the end of such period (the “Unresolved Items”), but in no case shall the Independent
Firm review or propose any resolution for any matters that have not been raised in the Notice of Objection. If KPMG LLP is unwilling or unable to serve in such capacity and the Parties are not able to mutually select an alternative independent
accounting firm that is willing and able to serve in such capacity, then Sellers shall within ten (10) days deliver to Buyer a listing of three (3) other accounting firms of internationally recognized standing and Buyer shall within ten
(10) days after receipt of such list, select one of such three (3) accounting firms to act as the Independent Firm. 
 (f) Buyer
and Sapphire shall instruct the Independent Firm to determine as promptly as practicable, and in any event within sixty (60) days after the date on which such dispute is referred to the Independent Firm, based solely on the provisions of this
Agreement, and the written presentations by Sellers and Buyer, and not on an independent review, whether and to what extent (if any) the calculations set forth in the Final Closing Statement or Fiduciary Adjustment Statement, as applicable, require
adjustment. In resolving any Unresolved Item, the Independent Firm (i) may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by Sellers or Buyer or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by Sellers
or Buyer, (ii) may not take oral testimony from the Parties or any other Person and (iii) shall not consider any facts that have occurred after the Principal Closing. Sellers and Buyer shall give each other copies of any written
submissions at the same time as they are submitted to the Independent Firm. Buyer shall bear and pay a percentage of the fees and expenses of the Independent Firm that is equal to the percentage of the total dollar amount of changes to the Final
Upfront Purchase Price proposed by Sellers that are successful, and Sellers shall bear and pay a percentage of the fees and expenses of the Independent Firm that is equal to the percentage of the total dollar amount of changes to the Final Upfront
Purchase Price proposed by Sellers that are not successful, in each case, as determined by the Independent Firm. The determination of the Independent Firm shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Parties and shall be final,
conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. 
 (g) All discussions and negotiations pursuant to this
Section 2.11 shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and comparable rules of evidence of any Governmental Authority. 

  
 43 

 (h) Neither Buyer nor Sapphire may disclose to the Independent Firm, and the Independent
Firm may not consider for any purpose, any settlement discussions or settlement offers made by or on behalf of either Buyer or Sapphire unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sapphire, and there shall be no ex parte communications with respect to the
matters contemplated hereby between the Independent Firm and either Buyer or Sapphire. 
 (i) If the Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash
is greater than the Final Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash, Sapphire shall, or shall cause the other Sellers to, promptly pay such difference to Buyer, in cash. If the Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash is less than the Final Unrestricted Fiduciary
Cash, Buyer shall promptly pay such excess to Sellers, in cash. Any payment pursuant to this Section 2.11(i) shall be made by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five
(5) Business Days to such account or accounts of Buyer or Sapphire, as applicable, as may be designated by Buyer or Sapphire, as applicable, in writing. 

(j) If the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price is greater than the Final Upfront Purchase Price, Sapphire shall, or shall cause the other
Sellers to, promptly pay such difference to Buyer, in cash. If the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price is less than the Final Upfront Purchase Price, Buyer shall promptly pay such excess to Sellers, in cash. Any payment pursuant to this
Section 2.11(j) shall be made by Buyer or Sellers, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days to such account or accounts of Buyer or Sellers, as applicable, as
may be designated by Buyer or Sellers, as applicable, in writing. 
 Section 2.12. Allocation of Purchase Price. The
Parties agree to allocate the Upfront Purchase Price (and any other amounts treated as consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes) among the Equity Interests and the Transferred Assets (the “Purchase Price Allocation”). The Parties
agree to cooperate in good faith to agree on a methodology which shall be used by Sellers to prepare Schedule 2.12, which Schedule will set forth a preliminary valuation with respect to certain Transferred Entities and Transferred Assets listed
therein and which Sellers shall deliver to Buyer no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Principal Closing Date. The Parties agree that such preliminary valuation will be updated in the Purchase Price Allocation as determined pursuant to
this Section 2.12. The Purchase Price Allocation shall be determined by the Parties acting in good faith on an arm’s length basis and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and any similar provision of state,
local, or non-U.S. Law. Within sixty (60) calendar days after the Principal Closing Date, Sapphire shall deliver to Buyer a draft Purchase Price Allocation with respect to the Preliminary Upfront Purchase
Price. Sapphire may deliver to Buyer amended Purchase Price Allocations with respect to (i) the Final Upfront Purchase Price, within sixty (60) calendar days after the determination of the Final Upfront Purchaser Price in accordance with
Section 2.11; and (ii) any Earnout Payments, within sixty (60) calendar days after payment of any Earnout Payment has been made in accordance with Section 2.17. If within 30 days after
Buyer’s receipt of any draft Purchase Price Allocation Buyer has not objected in writing to such draft Purchase Price Allocation, it shall become final. In the event that Buyer objects in writing within such
30-day period, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, such dispute shall be resolved promptly by an Independent Firm (selected
pursuant to the process set forth in Section 2.11(e)), the costs of which shall be split equally by Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand. The determination made by such Independent Firm shall be final and
binding on the Parties. The Parties shall file 

  
 44 

 
their Tax Returns (and IRS Form 8594, if applicable) on the basis of such Purchase Price Allocation, as it may be amended pursuant to this Agreement, and no Party shall thereafter take a Tax
Return position or any other position for applicable Tax purposes that is inconsistent with such Purchase Price Allocation unless otherwise required pursuant to a final “determination” as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code by a
Tax Authority; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent the Parties from reasonably settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority based upon or arising out of the Purchase Price Allocation, and the Parties
shall not be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority challenging such proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority. 

Section 2.13. Local Transfer Agreements. To the extent a jurisdiction requires pursuant to local Law observance of
specified formalities or procedures to legally effect a transfer of the Equity Interests or the Local Transferred Assets, or the assumption of the applicable Assumed Liabilities, such transfer or assumption shall be effected pursuant to short-form
acquisition agreements and/or stock transfer instruments (collectively, the “Local Transfer Agreements”) on a country-by-country basis substantially in
the form attached as Exhibit I or such other acquisition agreements and/or stock transfer instruments as Sapphire and Buyer may mutually agree. Each Local Transfer Agreement shall be consistent with the terms of this
Agreement, including with the Purchase Price Allocation as determined in accordance with Section 2.12 with respect to the transfer of the relevant Equity Interest or Local Transferred Asset, except to the extent
modifications to such Local Transfer Agreement are required by applicable non-U.S. Law (including all employment Laws applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby) in order to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. Where such modifications are required, the Parties covenant and agree to give effect to the intent and terms hereof to the fullest extent permissible by Law (and that any claims for breach under any Local Transfer Agreement
shall be brought under Section 11.04 of this Agreement and each Party agrees not to, and to cause its Subsidiaries and their respective successors and assigns not to, bring any claims or other Action under, arising out of
or relating to such Local Transfer Agreement against the other parties to such Local Transfer Agreement). The Parties covenant and agree to ensure that any Local Transfer Agreements are notarized and any relevant signatures to the Local Transfer
Agreements are notarized and/or apostilled where required, pursuant to relevant Law, to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Equity Interests or Local Transferred Assets or the assumption of the applicable Assumed Liabilities. Each Local
Transfer Agreement shall (a) be in a form reasonably acceptable to both Sellers and Buyer, (b) shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Equity Interests or the Local Transferred Assets or the assumption of the
applicable Assumed Liabilities and (c) shall not have any effect on the value being given or received by Buyer and Sellers, or the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the allocation of assets and Liabilities
as among them, all of which shall be determined by this Agreement, or in any way modify, amend, or constitute a waiver of, any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. For the avoidance of doubt, no Local Transfer Agreement
shall contain any representations, warranties or covenants other than those either (i) required by Law to transfer the applicable Equity Interests or Local Transferred Assets or the assumption of the applicable Assumed Liabilities or
(ii) mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Sellers in their sole discretion. Without prejudice to the preceding sentence, each of the Parties agrees that if, as a result of the applicable employee information and/or consultation processes in
respect of the Deferred Businesses, changes to the Local Transfer Agreements and/or Transfer Agreements (as applicable) are considered reasonably necessary by the Parties, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith on such amendments (if any) as are
reasonably appropriate.

 Section 2.14. Withholding. Each of the Parties (each, a
“Payor”) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as the Payor determines are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom or in connection therewith under
the Code or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law or under any other applicable Law. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid or remitted to the appropriate Tax Authority in
accordance with applicable Law, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made. If a Payor determines that an amount is required to be
deducted and withheld, such Payor shall (a) except in the case of any compensatory payments, provide the payee with commercially reasonable notice of the Payor’s intent to deduct and withhold, which shall include a copy of the calculation
of the amount to be deducted and withheld and the applicable Law supporting such calculation, and (b) reasonably cooperate with the payee to reduce, minimize or eliminate such potential deductions and withholdings, including by providing a
reasonable opportunity for the payee to provide forms or other evidence that would exempt such amounts from deduction or withholding (or reduce such deduction or withholding). Payor shall provide to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and
withholding was made any receipts or other documentation reasonably necessary for such Person to claim a credit, refund or otherwise comply with any Tax Return or other Tax matter. 

Section 2.15. French Employee Information Matters. 

(a) The Parties acknowledge that, under French labor laws, the employees of Willis Re SAS will need to be informed of their right to submit an
offer to acquire the French Equity pursuant to articles L. 23-10-1 et seq. of the French Commercial Code (the “Information Process”). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, unless and until Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiary) has exercised the Put Option in respect of France (the “French Put Option”), the French Equity will not be considered to constitute a
Transferred Entity and, if no such French Put Option is exercised prior to the Principal Closing, the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price shall be reduced by the French Consideration (as such term is defined below). 

(b) On the terms and conditions set forth in the French Put Option and the offer by Buyer or its applicable Subsidiary set forth therein (the
“French Offer”), including the consideration specified therein (the “French Consideration”), Buyer or its applicable Subsidiary has irrevocably offered to acquire the French Equity and to have the provisions of this
Agreement apply to the French Equity upon the exercise of the French Put Option by Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiary). Subject to acceptance of the French Offer by Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiary) following the completion of the information
process described in this Section 2.15 and upon delivery to Buyer of the executed French Put Option (the “France Put Option Exercise”), this Agreement shall apply to the French Equity and the French Equity
shall be included in the Transferred Entities. If the France Closing (as such term is defined below) occurs after the Principal Closing, on the France Closing, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the French Consideration to Sapphire or
its designee(s) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Sapphire and the Transfer Agreements relating to the French Equity in the manner set forth in Section 2.09(b),
Section 2.15(d) and Section 2.16(d), as applicable. 

  
 46 

 (c) Sapphire shall initiate or cause its relevant Subsidiary to initiate the information
process as promptly as practicable after the date hereof. Sapphire shall conduct and cause its relevant Subsidiary to (i) conduct the Information Process in the most expedient way practicable and (ii) request written notifications from
each and every employee of Willis Re SAS stating that they waive their right to submit an offer to acquire the French Equity. 
 (d) The
parties acknowledge and agree that (i) conditions to the transfer and assumption of the French Equity set forth in the French Put Option may be satisfied after the conditions to the transfer of other Transferred Entities set forth in
Article VIII have been satisfied and in any such case the Principal Closing shall take place with respect to all Transferred Entities, Transferred Assets, Businesses and Assumed Liabilities other than the French Equity
(except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.16), and (ii) the consummation of the sale of the French Equity (the “France Closing”) shall occur in accordance with the terms of the French Put Option. The
parties further acknowledge and agree that (A) all actions and documents relating to the transfer of the French Equity (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Transfer Agreements relating to the French Equity) shall not be required to be
taken or delivered at the Relevant Closing but only at the France Closing and (B) all items taken into account in the Target Net Working Capital, Closing Date Cash, Closing Date Unrestricted Fiduciary Cash, Closing Date Net Working Capital and
Closing Date Indebtedness (collectively, the “Closing Date Inputs”) in accordance with this Agreement shall not be adjusted to reflect the exclusion of the French Equity at the Principal Closing but shall be reflected as if the
France Closing shall have occurred at the Principal Closing; provided, that if no France Put Option Exercise is delivered prior to the Expiry Date (as defined in the French Put Option), the Closing Date Inputs shall be adjusted to reflect the
exclusion of the French Equity which shall be determined and paid pursuant to the process set forth in Section 2.12, except provided that the date to provide a Final Closing Statement shall be as from the Expiry Date rather
than as from the Principal Closing Date. In the event the France Closing occurs on a different date than the Principal Closing, France shall be deemed to constitute a Deferred Business. 

Section 2.16. Dutch Works Council Matters. 

(a) The Parties acknowledge that, under Dutch labor laws, one or more works councils of Sapphire and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries that
own Dutch Transferred Assets or directly conduct the Dutch Businesses will need to be informed and consulted and any advisory rights under the Dutch Works Council Act will need to be observed with respect to the offer made by Buyer to acquire the
Dutch Transferred Assets and the Businesses conducted in The Netherlands (the “Dutch Businesses”) and assume the liabilities meeting the criteria set forth in the definition of “Assumed Liabilities” related to the Dutch
Transferred Assets or Dutch Businesses (the “Dutch Assumed Liabilities”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, unless and until Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiaries) has exercised the Put Option in respect of the
Netherlands (the “Dutch Put Option”), the Dutch Transferred Assets, the Dutch Businesses and the Dutch Assumed Liabilities will not be considered to constitute Transferred Assets, Businesses or Assumed Liabilities respectively, and,
if no such Dutch Put Option is exercised prior to the Principal Closing, the Preliminary Upfront Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Dutch Consideration (as such term is defined below). 

  
 47 

 (b) On the terms and conditions set forth in the Dutch Put Option and the offer by Buyer or
its applicable Subsidiary set forth therein (the “Dutch Offer”), including the consideration specified therein (the “Dutch Consideration”), Buyer or its applicable Subsidiary has irrevocably offered to acquire by
means of a sale and transfer the Dutch Transferred Assets and the Dutch Businesses and assume by means of assignment the Dutch Assumed Liabilities (within the time limit set forth therein) and to have the provisions of this Agreement apply to the
Dutch Transferred Assets and Dutch Businesses and assume the Dutch Assumed Liabilities upon the exercise of the Dutch Put Option by Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiaries). Subject to acceptance of the Dutch Offer by Sapphire (or its relevant
Subsidiaries) following the completion of the consultation process described in this Section 2.16 and upon delivery to Buyer of the executed Dutch Put Option (the “Netherlands Put Option Exercise”), this
Agreement shall apply to the Dutch Transferred Assets, the Dutch Businesses and the Dutch Assumed Liabilities, and the Dutch Transferred Assets, the Dutch Businesses and the Dutch Assumed Liabilities shall be included in the Transferred Assets,
Businesses and Assumed Liabilities respectively. If the Dutch Closing (as such term is defined below) occurs after the Principal Closing, on the Dutch Closing, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Dutch Consideration to Sapphire or its
designee(s) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Sapphire and the Transfer Agreements relating to the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses and Dutch Assumed Liabilities in the manner set forth
in Section 2.09(b), Section 2.15(d) and Section 2.16(d), as applicable. 

(c) Sapphire shall initiate or cause its relevant Subsidiaries to initiate the information/consultation process as promptly as practicable
after the date hereof. Sapphire shall conduct and cause its relevant Subsidiaries to conduct the information/consultation process in the most expedient way practicable. Sapphire and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to,
reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the applicable consultation process described in this Section 2.16, including (i) Buyer timely providing any required information relating to Buyer or its
Affiliates, or to any measures envisaged by Buyer or its Affiliates or as otherwise reasonably requested by Sapphire in respect of or for the purpose of such consultation process, (ii) Sapphire keeping Buyer informed of the status of such
consultation and any material developments so far as they relate to the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or Dutch Assumed Liabilities, including that Sapphire shall, to the extent that any written documents, presentations or other
materials to be provided to the works council relate to Buyer, its organization and / or its plans for the Dutch Businesses, provide such materials to Buyer in advance and permit Buyer a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such materials
before they are presented or provided to the works council, and (iii) abstain from giving any commitment, representation or undertaking on behalf of the other Party or its Affiliates. Without Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Sapphire (or its relevant Subsidiaries) shall not enter into any material agreement with, or make any material commitment to, the relevant works council that would bind or impose any material
obligation on Buyer or any of its Affiliates after the Dutch Closing; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, that Buyer’s consent shall not be required with respect to any agreement or commitment between Sapphire (or its
relevant Affiliates) and employees of Sapphire (or its relevant Affiliates) generally, including those who are not Identified Employees. If, as a result of any such consultation process, changes to this Agreement, or further arrangements in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, are considered necessary by Sapphire, Sapphire and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith with each other on such changes (if any) to this Agreement or further arrangements (if any) in
connection with such transactions that are appropriate, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Dutch Put Option (as applicable). 

  
 48 

 (d) The parties acknowledge and agree that (i) conditions to the transfer and
assumption of the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or Dutch Assumed Liabilities set forth in the Dutch Put Option may be satisfied after the conditions to the transfer of other Transferred Entities, Transferred Assets, Businesses and
Assumed Liabilities set forth in Article VIII have been satisfied and in any such case the Principal Closing shall take place with respect to all Transferred Entities, Transferred Assets, Businesses and Assumed Liabilities other than the
Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or Dutch Assumed Liabilities (except as otherwise set forth in this Section 2.16), and (ii) the consummation of the sale of the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or
Dutch Assumed Liabilities (the “Dutch Closing”) shall occur in accordance with the terms of the Dutch Put Option. The parties further acknowledge and agree that (A) all actions and documents relating to the transfer of the
Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or Dutch Assumed Liabilities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Transfer Agreements relating to the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses or Dutch Assumed Liabilities) shall not be required to
be taken or delivered at the Relevant Closing but only at the Dutch Closing and (B) all of the items taken into account in the Closing Date Inputs shall not be adjusted to reflect the exclusion of the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses
and Dutch Assumed Liabilities at the Principal Closing but shall be reflected as if the Dutch Closing shall have occurred at the Principal Closing; provided, that if no Netherlands Put Option Exercise is delivered prior to the Expiry Date (as
defined in the Dutch Put Option), the Closing Date Inputs shall be adjusted to reflect the exclusion of the Dutch Transferred Assets, Dutch Businesses and Dutch Assumed Liabilities, which shall be determined and paid pursuant to the process set
forth in Section 2.12, except provided that the date to provide an Final Closing Statement shall be as from the Expiry Date rather than as from the Principal Closing Date. In the event the Dutch Closing occurs on a
different date than the Principal Closing, The Dutch Business shall be deemed to constitute a Deferred Business. 

Section 2.17. Earnout Matters. 

(a) Earnout Statements. On or before the date that is ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the EMP (unless the Earnout
Acceleration Payment has already been paid pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii)), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sapphire a written statement (the “Earnout Statement,” and, the date of such delivery, the “Earnout
Statement Date”) setting forth the following amounts, together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations: 

(i) the Earnout Revenue Threshold; 

(ii) the Adjusted Earnout Revenues for the EMP; and 

(iii) the Earnout Payment, if any. 

(b) Determination of Earnout Payments. Following the Earnout Statement Date and until resolution of the Earnout Amount under this
Section 2.17(b), (i) Buyer and Sapphire shall reasonably cooperate with and assist each other in resolving any items questioned or disputed by 

  
 49 

 
Sapphire with respect thereto in good faith, including by Buyer making reasonably available and granting reasonable access (during normal business hours) to records and employees of Buyer and the
other members of the Earnout Group involved in the calculation and preparation of such Earnout Statement, and (ii) Sapphire shall have a period of ninety (90) calendar days from the Earnout Statement Date ( the “Earnout Objection
Period”) to deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Earnout Objection Statement”) setting forth any objections that Sapphire may have to such Earnout Statement, including a reasonably detailed explanation of the basis for each such
objection along with reasonably detailed supporting calculations. If Sapphire does not deliver to Buyer an Earnout Objection Statement by the end of the Earnout Objection Period, or if during such Earnout Objection Period Sapphire delivers to Buyer
written notice that Sapphire accepts such Earnout Statement, then such Earnout Statement and the amounts contained in such statement shall become final, conclusive, and binding on the Parties for purposes of this
Section 2.17 and for all purposes under this Agreement. All discussions and negotiations pursuant to this Section 2.17(b) shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of
Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and comparable rules of evidence of any Governmental Authority. If Sapphire delivers an Earnout Objection Statement prior to the end of the Earnout Objection Period, then Sapphire and Buyer shall attempt in
good faith to resolve any disputed items. If Sapphire and Buyer are unable to resolve all or any of the disputed items within sixty (60) calendar days after delivery of an Earnout Objection Statement (the “Earnout Resolution
Period”), then the remaining disputed items that Sapphire objected to in the Earnout Objection Statement and that Buyer and Sapphire were unable to resolve during the Earnout Resolution Period (the “Earnout Disputed Items”)
shall be jointly submitted to the Independent Firm (to act in its capacity as an independent expert and not as an arbitrator) to resolve such Earnout Disputed Items in accordance with the standards set forth in this
Section 2.17(b). The Independent Firm’s determination shall be limited to the Earnout Disputed Items and based solely on the provisions of this Agreement and the written submissions and supporting materials provided by
Buyer and Sapphire (i.e., not on the basis of independent review), and the Independent Firm may not assign a value to any Earnout Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Earnout Disputed Item claimed by either Party in the
Earnout Statement or Earnout Objection Statement, or less than the smallest value for such Earnout Disputed Item claimed by either Party in the Earnout Statement or Earnout Objection Statement. Neither Buyer nor Sapphire may disclose to the
Independent Firm, and the Independent Firm may not consider for any purpose, any settlement discussions or settlement offers made by or on behalf of either Buyer or Sapphire unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sapphire, and there shall be no ex
parte communications with respect to the matters contemplated hereby between the Independent Firm and either Buyer or Sapphire. The Parties shall enter into a customary engagement letter with the Independent Firm at or prior to the time the
Earnout Disputed Items are submitted to the Independent Firm. The Independent Firm shall be instructed to render its determination as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after its engagement, and,
contemporaneously with and based solely on its determination of the Earnout Disputed Items, to prepare and deliver to Sapphire and Buyer the Independent Firm’s determination of the Earnout Statement, Earnout Payment and other amounts required
to be contained in such statement. Such Independent Firm’s determination of each of the disputed items shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the Parties, and such Independent Firm shall be instructed to such effect. The Independent Firm
shall be bound by a mutually agreeable confidentiality agreement, and all negotiations and submissions to the Independent Firm shall be treated as confidential information. The fees and expenses of the Independent Firm pursuant to

  
 50 

 
this Section 2.17(b) shall be borne by Buyer and Sapphire in proportion to the respective aggregate amounts as they do not prevail on Earnout Disputed Items resolved by the
Independent Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Independent Firm at the time the determination of the Independent Firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, the fees and disbursements of each party’s independent accountants, attorneys and advisors incurred in connection with their respective preparation or review of any Earnout Statement and any Earnout Objection Statement and
presentations to the Independent Firm shall be borne by such party. 
 (c) Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction
Agreements, after the Relevant Closing, Buyer shall have sole discretion with regard to all matters relating to the operation of the Business, provided that, during the EMP: 

(i) Buyer will, and will cause the other members of the Earnout Group to operate the Business and the Buyer Subject Business in
good faith and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to operate the Business and the Buyer Subject Business in the ordinary course of business and preserve intact the business organizations and goodwill of the Business and Buyer Subject Business
and the relationships of the Business and Buyer Subject Business with customers, employees, suppliers and others having business dealings with the Business and the Buyer Subject Business; 

(ii) Buyer will not, and will cause the other members of the Earnout Group not to, take any action, or refrain from taking any
action, (A) in bad faith (B) or that would otherwise reasonably be expected to reduce Adjusted Earnout Revenues, unless, in the case of clause (B), there is a bona fide material business purpose and the primary purpose is not to reduce the
likelihood or amount of the Earnout Payment; and 
 (iii) Buyer will not, and will cause the other members of the Earnout
Group not to, issue, sell, transfer, lease, grant or otherwise dispose of any equity interests, voting securities, rights exchangeable or convertible therefor, or any other right that would cause a member of the Earnout Group that holds assets of,
or conducts operations of, the Business or the Subject Buyer Business, in a manner that would cause the applicable revenues of such Person to no longer constitute Adjusted Earnout Revenues without either (x) first transferring all such
Person’s assets and operations to the extent related to the Business or the Buyer Subject Business to a Person that will remain a member of the Earnout Group or (y) the Person to which such equity interests, voting securities or rights are
to be issued, sold, transferred, leased, granted (or otherwise disposed to) first agreeing in writing that such Person constitutes a member of the Earnout Group and agreeing to fully comply with the reporting and other obligations applicable to
successors and transferees set forth in Section 2.17(e) and that Buyer is an express third party beneficiary, with a direct right of enforcement, of such provisions; provided, that this shall not prevent Buyer from
consummating any Earnout Acceleration Event so long as it complies with its obligations pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii). 

  
 51 

 (iv) Buyer will not, and will cause the other members of the Earnout Group
not to, sell, transfer, lease, grant or otherwise dispose of any operations or assets of the Business or the Subject Buyer Business that generate or would reasonably be expected to be capable of generating Adjusted Earnout Revenues unless the Person
to which such operations or assets are to be sold, transferred, leased, granted (or otherwise disposed to) first agrees in writing that such Person constitutes a member of the Earnout Group and agrees to fully comply with the reporting and other
obligations applicable to successors and transferees set forth in Section 2.17(e) and that Buyer is an express third party beneficiary, with a direct right of enforcement, of such provisions; provided, that this shall not
prevent Buyer from consummating any Earnout Acceleration Event so long as it complies with its obligations pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii). 

(v) Buyer will not consummate or permit to occur any Earnout Acceleration Event without complying with the provisions of
Section 2.17(f)(ii). 
 (vi) Buyer will not consummate or permit to occur a Change of Control of
Buyer unless, concurrently therewith, the ultimate parent company of the Person that has acquired Control of Buyer (the “Change of Control Party”) executes and delivers to Sapphire a written guaranty (effective as of the consummation of
the Change of Control) of Buyer’s obligations pursuant to this Section 2.17. Following consummation of a Change of Control of Buyer, the Change of Control Party shall hold separate any pre-existing
treaty reinsurance business it may own that is substantially similar to the Business or the Buyer Subject Business from the Business and the Buyer Subject Business (the “Hold Separate Obligation”). A failure by the Change of Control Party
to comply with the Hold Separate Obligation in any respect that is materially prejudicial to Sapphire’s rights under this Section 2.17 shall result in an Earnout Acceleration Event. 

(d) Within thirty (30) days following the end of each of the calendar years ending December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2023, and
the end of each the first three calendar quarters of the EMP (unless the Earnout Acceleration Payment has already been paid pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii)), Buyer shall provide to Sapphire summary financial information
relating to the Adjusted Earnout Revenues during such period. During the EMP, Buyer shall meet with Sapphire and its Representatives upon the reasonable request of Sapphire (and no more frequently than twice during the EMP), provided that such
meeting takes place at a reasonable time during normal business hours and in such a manner as not to unreasonably interfere with the normal operation of the Business or the Buyer Subject Business of the Earnout Group. During the period of time from
and after the delivery of the Earnout Statement through the date that such Earnout Statement becomes final, conclusive, and binding on the Parties in accordance with this Section 2.17, Buyer shall afford, and shall cause
the other members of the Earnout Group to afford, to Sapphire and its Representatives in connection with such Earnout Statement reasonable access, subject to reasonable confidentiality restrictions, during normal business hours and upon reasonable
prior notice, to the financial information, accounting work papers, books and records and accounting personnel of Buyer and the applicable members of the Earnout Group requested by Sapphire, in each case only insofar as directly relevant to the
determinations contemplated by this Section 2.17, provided that no such access or disclosure shall be required to the extent it would result in a waiver of attorney-client privilege (or similar privilege) or work
product doctrine or violate any applicable Law and, provided, further, that Buyer and the other applicable members of the Earnout Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that
would not jeopardize such privilege or work product doctrine or violate any such Law. 

  
 52 

 (e) 

(i) Each successor or transferee of any assets or operations of the Business or Buyer Subject Business (other than a Pre-Closing Transferee), and any other Person that Buyer is required to cause to agree to the provisions of this Section 2.17(e) (collectively, the
“Section 2.17(e) Persons”), shall take the actions that Buyer is required to cause (or use any level of effort to cause) such Person to take, and shall not take any actions that Buyer is required to cause (or use
any level of effort to cause) such Person not to take, in each case pursuant to this Section 2.17; provided, however, that any such obligations shall terminate immediately upon payment of the Earnout
Acceleration Payment pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii). 
 (ii) On or before the date that is thirty (30) days after
the last day of the EMP (unless the Earnout Acceleration Payment has already been paid pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii)), each Section 2.17(e) Person shall provide to Buyer (with a copy to Sapphire) a written statement
of the amount of Adjusted Earnout Revenues for the EMP of such Section 2.17(e) Person and its Affiliates, together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations. 

(iii) On or before the date that is ten (10) days following the end of each of the calendar years ending December 31,
2022 and December 31, 2023, and the end of each the first three calendar quarters of the EMP (unless the Earnout Acceleration Payment has already been paid pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii)), each Section 2.17(e)
Person shall provide to Buyer (with a copy to Sapphire) summary financial information relating to the Adjusted Earnout Revenues of such Section 2.17(e) Person and its Affiliates during such period. 

(f) Payment of Earnout Amounts. 

(i) Unless the Earnout Acceleration Payment has previously been paid pursuant to Section 2.17(f)(ii),
Buyer shall, on or prior to the third (3rd) Business Day after the final determination of the Earnout Payment pursuant to Section 2.17(b)(i), pay or cause to be paid to
Sapphire (for the benefit of the Sellers) the Earnout Payment in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts of Sapphire or its designee(s) as may be designated by Sapphire in writing at least two Business Days
prior to such payment. 
 (ii) Buyer shall, prior to or on the closing date of any Earnout Acceleration Event
(provided that if the Earnout Acceleration Event is prior to the Principal Closing Date, such payment shall be made at the Principal Closing), pay or cause to be paid to Sapphire the Earnout Acceleration Payment in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such account or accounts of Sapphire or its designee(s) as may be designated by Sapphire in writing at least two Business Days prior to such payment. 

(g) Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Amount. Within thirty (30) Business Days following the Principal Closing Date,
(i) Buyer shall deliver to Sapphire its estimate of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Amount, along with reasonably detailed supporting calculations, and (ii) Sapphire shall have a period of thirty (30) calendar days to deliver
to Buyer a statement setting forth any objections that Sapphire may have to such estimate, including a reasonably 

  
 53 

 
detailed explanation of the basis for each such objection along with reasonably detailed supporting calculations. If Sapphire does not deliver to Buyer such an objection statement by the end of
such period, or if during such period Sapphire delivers to Buyer written notice that it accepts Buyer’s estimate of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction, then such Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Amount shall become final, conclusive,
and binding on the Parties for purposes of this Section 2.17. All discussions and negotiations pursuant to this Section 2.17(b) shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for
purposes of Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and comparable rules of evidence of any Governmental Authority. If Sapphire delivers an objection statement prior to the end of such period, then Sapphire and Buyer shall attempt in good faith to
resolve any disputed items. If Sapphire and Buyer are unable to resolve all or any of the disputed items within sixty (60) calendar days after delivery by Sapphire of the objection statement, (an “Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction
Resolution Period”), then the remaining disputed items that Sapphire objected to in the objection statement that Buyer and Sapphire were unable to resolve during the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Resolution Period (the
“Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Items”) shall be jointly submitted to the Independent Firm (to act in its capacity as an independent expert and not as an arbitrator) to resolve such Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction
Disputed Items in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 2.17(g). The Independent Firm’s determination shall be limited to the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Items and based solely on the
provisions of this Agreement and the written submissions and supporting materials provided by Buyer and Sapphire (i.e., not on the basis of independent review), and the Independent Firm may not assign a value to any Earnout Revenue Threshold
Reduction Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Item claimed by either Party in the Buyer estimate of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Amount or Sapphire’s objection
statement, in each case referenced in the first sentence of this Section 2.17(g), or less than the smallest value for such Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Item claimed by either Party in the Buyer estimate of the Earnout Revenue
Threshold Reduction Amount or Sapphire’s objection statement, in each case referenced in the first sentence of this Section 2.17(g). Neither Buyer nor Sapphire may disclose to the Independent Firm, and the Independent Firm may not consider
for any purpose, any settlement discussions or settlement offers made by or on behalf of either Buyer or Sapphire unless otherwise agreed by Buyer and Sapphire, and there shall be no ex parte communications with respect to the matters
contemplated hereby between the Independent Firm and either Buyer or Sapphire. The Parties shall enter into a customary engagement letter with the Independent Firm at or prior to the time the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Items are
submitted to the Independent Firm. The Independent Firm shall be instructed to render its determination as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) calendar days after its engagement, and, contemporaneously with and based
solely on its determination of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed Items, to prepare and deliver to Sapphire and Buyer the Independent Firm’s determination of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Amount. Such Independent
Firm’s determination of each of the disputed items shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the Parties, and such Independent Firm shall be instructed to such effect. The Independent Firm shall be bound by a mutually agreeable confidentiality
agreement, and all negotiations and submissions to the Independent Firm shall be treated as confidential information. The fees and expenses of the Independent Firm pursuant to this Section 2.17(b) shall be borne by Buyer
and Sapphire in proportion to the respective aggregate amounts as they do not prevail on Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction Disputed 

  
 54 

 
Items resolved by the Independent Firm, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Independent Firm at the time the determination of the Independent Firm is rendered on the
merits of the matters submitted. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the fees and disbursements of each party’s independent accountants, attorneys and advisors incurred in connection with their respective preparation or review of any
estimate of the Earnout Revenue Threshold Reduction or any objection statement of Sapphire shall be borne by Buyer and presentations to the Independent Firm shall be paid by such party. 

ARTICLE III

Except as disclosed in the separate disclosure letter that has been delivered by Sapphire to Buyer prior to the execution of this Agreement,
including the documents made available to Buyer and attached to, or incorporated by reference in, such disclosure letter (the “Disclosure Schedules”), and subject to Section 11.10, Sapphire, hereby

assets or properties or conduct of its business requires such qualification, except, in respect to the Transferred Entities, where the failure to be so organized, validly existing, qualified or, where relevant, in good standing, or to have such
power or authority, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on the Businesses taken as a whole. 

(b) Sellers have made available to Buyer true and complete copies of all material Organizational Documents of each Transferred Entity, and all
respective amendments thereto, in effect as of the date hereof. No Transferred Entity is in material violation of any provision of such Organizational Documents.

 Section 3.11. Employee Benefits. 

(a) Schedule 3.11(a) sets forth a true and complete list of each material Employee Plan and separately identifies each material Assumed
Employee Plan. All Assumed Employee Plans, save with respect to the Reverse Carve-Out Employees, are fully funded, to the extent required by applicable Laws or any Liabilities associated therewith have been
accrued or otherwise accounted for in full in the Closing Date Net Working Capital or Indebtedness. With respect to each material Assumed Employee Plan (and with respect to (A) each other Assumed Employee Plan that is not an individual

documents comprising the terms thereof or a written summary of all material terms thereof and (ii) prior to the applicable Closing Date, the most recent determination letter, advisory letter or opinion letter issued by the IRS or the relevant
Tax Authority. 
 (b) Each Transferred Entity has payroll established such that no Buyer action is required to employ the relevant
Transferred Entity Employees that become Transferred Employees and continue any Assumed Employee Plan after the Relevant Closing. 
 (c) Each
Assumed Employee Plan or any Employee Plans (to the extent involving or related to any Identified Employee) has been operated and administered in material compliance with its terms and applicable Laws; (ii) all material contributions, payments,
reimbursements or other amounts payable or required to be paid by the Transferred Entities pursuant to each Assumed Employee Plan or any Employee Plans (to the extent involving or related to any Identified Employee) in respect of current or prior
plan years have been timely paid or, to the extent not yet due, accrued in accordance with GAAP or applicable international accounting standards (and all premiums due or payable with respect to insurance policies funding any Assumed Employee Plan,
have been timely made or paid in full); and (iii) there are no pending, or to the knowledge of Sellers, threatened material claims, actions, proceedings, investigations or audits (other than routine
non-material claims for benefits in the ordinary course of business) by, on behalf of or against any Assumed Employee Plans or any Employee Plans (to the extent involving or related to any Identified Employee)
and none of the Assumed Employee Plans is presently under audit or examination (nor has notice been received of a potential audit or examination) by the IRS, the Department of Labor, or any other Governmental Authority. 

(d) Each Assumed Employee Plan or any Employee Plans (to the extent involving or related to any Identified Employee) intended to be qualified
under section 401(a) of the Code, and the trust (if any) forming a part thereof, is so qualified and has received a currently effective favorable determination letter from the IRS or the IRS has issued a favorable opinion or advisory letter with
respect to the document utilized for such Employee Plan on which it is entitled to rely and, to the knowledge of Sellers, there are no existing circumstances or events that would reasonably be expected to result in any revocation of, or a change to,
such determination or opinion letter. Each Assumed Employee Plan and, with respect to each Identified Employee, each Employee Plan that is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and is subject
to Section 409A of the Code has been administered, operated and maintained in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 61 

 (e) Except as would not result in any material liability to the Transferred Entities or
Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates: (i) there has been no “prohibited transaction” (within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) with respect to any Employee Plan, (ii) no fiduciary

fiduciary duty and (iii) no event has occurred with respect to an Employee Plan that could reasonably be expected to subject Buyer to any Taxes or liability under Title I of ERISA or Chapter 43 of the Code with respect to any Assumed Employee
Plan. There has been no obligation to pay or custom of paying any monies (other than in respect of contractual remuneration or emoluments of employment or pension benefits) to or for the benefit of any current Identified Employee or any former
employee, officer, consultant, contractor or worker of Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries (or their dependents) under which there will be any liability in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. 

(f) No Assumed Employee Plan or any other plan in which Identified Employees participate provides health, medical, dental, life insurance or
welfare benefits following retirement or other termination of employment to any current or former employee or other service provider or any of their respective dependents, in each case, except as required by COBRA. No Assumed Employee Plan provides
or is obligated to provide health, life insurance or other welfare benefits to any Person who is not an Identified Employee or former employee of the Transferred Entities (or dependent thereof). Each Transferred Entity has complied in all respects
with the applicable provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, as amended, including offering qualifying health coverage to all full-time employees
since January 1, 2015. 
 (g) None of the Transferred Entities or any ERISA Affiliate has any Liability, or is reasonably expected to
incur any Liability under Title IV of ERISA, Section 302 of ERISA, Section 412 of the Code or under COBRA as a result of a failure to comply with the continuation coverage requirements thereof and, to the knowledge of Sellers, no condition
exists that presents a material risk to the Transferred Entities or any ERISA Affiliates of incurring any such Liability. No Transferred Entity or any of its ERISA Affiliates contributes to or is obligated to contribute to, or has any Liability with
respect to, and no Assumed Employee Plan is (A) a “multiemployer plan” within the meaning of section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA or a “multiple employer plan” within the meaning of Section 4063 or 4064 of ERISA, or (B) a
“multiple employer welfare arrangement” (as defined in Section 3(40) of ERISA). 
 (h) Neither the execution, delivery, or
performance of this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions (either alone or in conjunction with any other event) will (i) result in any payment or benefit becoming due to, or the cancellation of indebtedness of, any Identified
Employee, or other current or former employee, director or consultant of any Transferred Entity, (ii) increase any compensation or benefits otherwise payable or to be provided to any Identified Employee or (iii) result in any acceleration
of the time of payment, funding or vesting of any compensation or benefits to any Identified Employee or under any Employee Plan, or (iv) trigger any increased or accelerated contributions to any Assumed Employee Plan or trigger any change in
the funding or covenant support arrangements for any Assumed Employee Plan. No amount paid or payable (whether in cash, in property or in the form of benefits) as a result of the delivery, performance or execution of this Agreement or the
consummation of the Transaction (whether alone or in connection with any other event) will result in the payment of any amount that would, individually or in combination with any other such payment, constitute an “excess parachute payment”
within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code. No Transferred Entity has any obligation to make, and no Identified Employee is entitled to receive, a “gross-up” or similar payment in respect of
any Taxes that may become payable under Section 4999 or 409A of the Code. 

  
 62 

 (i) Except as would not be material to the Businesses, taken as a whole, (i) all
employer and employee contributions to each Assumed Employee Plan required by its terms or by applicable Law have been made or, if applicable, accrued in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices in the applicable jurisdiction applied
to such matters, and (ii) the fair market value of the assets of each funded Assumed Employee Plan, the liability of each insurer for any Assumed Employee Plan funded through insurance or the book reserve established for any Assumed Employee
Plan, together with any accrued contributions, is sufficient to procure or provide for the accrued benefit obligations, with respect to all current and former participants in such plan according to the actuarial assumptions and valuations most
recently used to determine employer contributions to such Assumed Employee Plan, and no transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall cause such assets or insurance obligations to be less than such benefit obligations. 

(j) Other than the pension schemes set forth on Schedule 3.11(a) (the “Pension Schemes”), and/or any Mandatory Retirement
Plan, there is no material arrangement of any nature whatsoever to which Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries contributes, or has contributed, or may become liable to contribute or pay any sum, for the payment of a pension, gratuity, allowance, lump
sum or other benefit on retirement, death, the attainment of a particular age or the attainment of a particular number of years of service, termination of employment (whether voluntary or not) or sickness or disablement (whether during service or
after retirement (whether legally enforceable or not)) with respect to or for the benefit of the Identified Employees (or their dependents). Neither Sapphire nor any of its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures with respect to the Businesses proposes, nor
has any such entity made any proposal, any material undertaking or assurance (whether legally enforceable or not) to any person to enter into or establish or participate in any such arrangement. 

 (k) All material details and governing documents in relation to the Pension Schemes have been, or prior to Closing shall be, provided to
Buyer together with a list of employees and directors who participate in the Pension Schemes, including details of the applicable rates of contribution (member and employer) and such other data as is necessary in order to establish the respective
entitlements of the employees and the directors to contributions or benefits under the Pension Schemes. 
 (l) Neither Sapphire nor any of
its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures has any obligation, as a result of a transfer pursuant to the Transfer Regulations, to provide any benefits other than those provided in the event of old age, invalidity or death to any Automatic Transfer Employee
in the UK, and no such obligation shall transfer to Buyer under the Transfer Regulations.  

(m) No contribution notice or financial support direction (or any similar notice or direction in any jurisdiction) has been issued or
threatened by any Governmental Authority in respect of Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries (or any person connected or associated with Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries). Prior to the date of this Agreement, no transactions have taken place, no
arrangements have been entered into, no steps have been taken and there have been no omissions which are reasonably likely to give rise to any Governmental Authority issuing or threatening to issue a contribution notice or financial support
direction to or in respect of Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Businesses. 

  
 63 

 (n) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.11(n), neither Sapphire nor any of its

(o) To the Sellers’ knowledge, there is no matter or circumstance which might give rise to an investigation by any Governmental Authority
or to the issue of any notice, order, direction or injunction by any Governmental Authority in relation to any material Employee Plan with respect to the Businesses or any Identified Employees. 

(p) To the Sellers’ knowledge, Sapphire and its Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures has complied at all times with their obligations under
applicable Law in relation to the Pension Schemes and Mandatory Retirement Plans with respect to the Identified Employees. No notices, fines, or other sanctions have been issued by any Governmental Authority in relation to the Pension Schemes. 

(q) To the Sellers’ knowledge, all Pension Scheme and Mandatory Retirement Plan contributions and premiums due in respect of the
Identified Employees’ pensions and benefits have been duly paid and there are no liabilities outstanding in respect of them, save with respect to any unfunded Mandatory Retirement Plans.

(s) There are no actions, proceedings or claims in progress, pending or threatened against Sapphire or its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures (in
each case in relation to the Business) in relation to the provision or otherwise of any Pension Scheme, Mandatory Retirement Plan or any benefits of a type described in Section 3.11(f) above, and to the Sellers’
Knowledge, there is no fact, matter or circumstance which could give rise to any action, proceeding or claim. 
 (t) Except as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no sums owing to or from, or agreed to be loaned or advanced by Sapphire to, any Identified Employee or any former employee, officer, worker,
contractor or consultant of Sapphire or any of its Subsidiaries other than reimbursement of expenses, wages for the current salary period and holiday pay for the current holiday year.

selection. 

  
 64

nor any of its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures has made or agreed to make a payment or provided or agreed to provide a benefit to a present or former Identified Employee or to their dependents in connection with the actual or proposed termination or
suspension of employment, engagement or appointment or any variation of an employment contract, contract of engagement or appointment.

 92 

 
reasonable prior written notice, (ii) furnish to Buyer and its Representatives such financial and operating data and other information Relating to the Businesses as such Persons may

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Buyer shall not, without Sapphire’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed) or to the extent that Sapphire is required to provide such information to Buyer under the Transfer Regulations or other applicable Laws, have access, other than to the extent such access is granted in accordance

(B) any Business Records prepared in connection with any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated thereby and (C) any access, document or information, the provision or disclosure of which, upon the advice of counsel, would
violate any applicable Law, result in the loss of protectable interests in trade secrets, or result in the waiver of any legal privilege or work-product privilege (provided, that, Sapphire shall give notice to Buyer of the fact that such documents
or information are being withheld and coordinate with Buyer to determine alternative means to disclose such information (or summaries thereof) without resulting in such loss or waiver). 

(c) Sellers shall have the right to have one or more Representatives present at all times during any inspections, interviews and examinations

 Section 5.03. Regulatory Filings.  

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer and Sapphire shall cooperate with one another and shall use their respective
reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or desirable under Law to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable (and refrain from
taking any action which would reasonably be expected to materially delay the consummation of the Transactions). Each of Buyer and Sapphire shall (i) make within ten (10) Business Days the filings required under the HSR Act necessary to
consummate the Transactions, (ii) make, at each such Party’s expense, full and accurate filings, or where required or advisable pre-filings, required to obtain clearances under all other Competition
Laws (including under the UK Enterprise Act pursuant to the submission of a merger notice to the Competition and Markets Authority), clearances under all Foreign Investment Laws and clearance under all financial regulatory or other applicable Laws
with the relevant Governmental Authorities (x) except as set forth in clauses (y) and (z) below, as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days (or such shorter time as may be required under
applicable Law), (y) as soon as reasonably practicable in respect of all relevant approvals and confirmations necessary (including with respect to the completion of criminal records, training and fitness and propriety checks and registrations with
respect to staff) to enable the Brexit Assets to transfer to Nordic Försäkring & Riskhantering AB or (z) (1) forty-five (45) Business Days in respect of the consents, clearances, approvals, permissions, licenses,
variances, exemptions, authorizations, acknowledgements, permits, nonactions, orders and waivers relevant to the closing conditions set forth on Schedule 8.04(c) in respect of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Argentina, the People’s Republic of China

conditions set forth on Schedule 8.04(c)) in respect of Malaysia and Singapore, of (A), for each clearance for which a pre-filing is not required or advisable, the date of this Agreement, and
(B) for each clearance for which a pre-filing is required or advisable, the date upon which the relevant Governmental Authority has confirmed that the filing may be submitted, provided that any
such pre-filing shall be made within twenty (20) Business Days of the date of this Agreement except that any such pre-filing relevant to the closing conditions set
forth on Schedule 8.04(c) in respect of Singapore shall be made within ten (10) Business Days of the date of this Agreement, (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file as promptly as practicable with any Governmental
Authority all documentation necessary to effect such other filings, notices, petitions, statements, registrations, submissions of information, applications and other documents that are required or advisable pursuant to any Law and (iv) use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain and maintain all approvals, consents, clearance, permissions, variances, exemptions, acknowledgements, nonactions, orders, waivers, registrations, authorizations and other confirmations, in each case, required to be
made with or obtained from any Governmental Authority that are required or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents (collectively, the “Regulatory Approvals”). None of Buyer or Sapphire, or any of
their respective Affiliates, shall file any documents with or otherwise make any written submission to any Governmental Authority regarding a Regulatory Approval in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby without the other Party having a
reasonable opportunity to review and provide comments, which comments shall be considered in good faith by the filing or submitting Party. Buyer and Sapphire, and each of their respective Affiliates, shall not withdraw any filing or extend any
waiting period under the HSR Act or any Competition Law or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except with the prior written consent of the other
Party. Each Party shall, and each shall cause its Affiliates to, comply at the earliest practicable date with any reasonable request under the HSR Act or any Competition Law, Foreign Investment 

  
 94 

 
Laws, or any regulatory Law, for additional information, documents, interviews or depositions with relevant employees, officers and directors, or other materials received by such Party or any of
its Affiliates from any Governmental Authority in respect of such filings or such transactions, and cooperate with the other Parties in connection with any such request or filing and in connection with resolving any investigation or other inquiry of
any Governmental Authority under the HSR Act (if applicable) or any Competition Laws or any regulatory Law or any Foreign Investment Laws with respect to any such filing or any such transaction. Neither Party shall, and neither Party shall permit
any of its respective Affiliates or its or their Representatives to, participate in any substantive meetings, substantive conference calls or other substantive discussions with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation, or
other inquiry in connection with the Transactions without giving the other Party prior notice of the meeting (to the extent the giving of such notice is reasonably practicable under the circumstances) and, to the extent permitted by such
Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend or participate. Buyer shall bear 100% of the costs associated with all filing fees in connection with all filings under any applicable Regulatory Approvals. 

(b) Any Party may, as it deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other Parties
under this Section 5.03 as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient, and the recipient shall cause such outside
counsel not to disclose such materials or information to any other Representatives of the recipient or its Affiliates, unless express written permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials. 

(c) In furtherance and not in limitation of the actions and obligations described in this Section 5.03, Buyer and
Sapphire each shall use its respective reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents under the Competition Laws
as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date. In connection therewith, if (x) if any Governmental Authority issues a “Second Request” or initiates a “Phase 2” or similar in-depth investigation in connection with Competition Laws, the HSR Act or any other Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by any of the Transaction Documents, the Parties shall immediately confer in
good faith with one another and the applicable Governmental Authority in order to determine how to respond to and address any issues raised by the Governmental Authority as promptly as possible, or (y) any Action is instituted (or threatened to
be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by the Transaction Documents as in violation of the HSR Act or any Competition Law or any other Laws, Buyer and Sapphire shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to contest and resist
any such Action as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed, or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in
effect and that prohibits, prevents, limits or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, including by pursuing all available avenues of administrative and judicial appeal, unless, by mutual agreement,
Buyer and Sapphire decide that litigation is not in their respective best interests. In furtherance and not in limitation of the actions and obligations described in this Section 5.03, Buyer and Sapphire each shall use its
respective reasonable best efforts to take such action as may be required to cause the expiration of the notice periods or to obtain Regulatory Approvals under the Competition Laws and other Laws with respect to such transactions as promptly as
possible after the execution of this Agreement (and in any event prior to the Outside Date). 

  
 95 

 (d) Buyer further agrees that it shall, to the extent necessary to obtain the waiver or
consent from any Governmental Authority required to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 8.01(a), (c) or (d) or to avoid the entry of or have lifted, vacated or terminated any Law enacted, entered,
promulgated or enforced by any Governmental Authority preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any Transaction Documents, take the following actions as promptly as practicable (and in any event so as to allow the Principal
Closing to occur prior to the Outside Date): (i) propose, negotiate, and offer to commit (and if such offer is accepted, commit to and effect), by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, and in connection with the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, the sale, divestiture, holding separate, placement in trust, disposition or any other arrangement, agreement or amendment (including by licensing any Intellectual Property Rights) with respect
to any of the Transferred Assets, any asset of the Transferred Entities, the Equity Interests or the assets of Buyer and its subsidiaries; (ii) terminate any existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations in respect of the
Businesses or the businesses and operations of Buyer and its subsidiaries; (iii) otherwise offer to take or offer to commit to take any action which it is capable of taking and, if the offer is accepted, take or commit to take such action, that
limits its freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of the Transferred Assets, any asset of the Transferred Entities, the Equity Interests or the assets of Buyer and its subsidiaries; and (iv) take promptly, in the event
that any permanent or preliminary injunction or other order is entered or becomes reasonably foreseeable to be entered in any Action that would make consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents unlawful or that would
prevent or materially delay consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, any and all steps (including the appeal thereof, the posting of a bond or the taking of the steps contemplated by
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 5.03(d)) necessary to vacate, modify or suspend such injunction or order. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer’s obligations under
this Section 5.03(d) shall be absolute and not qualified by “reasonable best efforts.” 
 (e) Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer and Sapphire shall cooperate with one another and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary or
desirable under Law to effectuate the transfer of Transferred Assets controlled under export controls (if any) (including the Export Administration Regulations and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations) to Buyer. 

(f) Sapphire and Buyer shall jointly develop, and each of the Parties shall consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith
the views of one another, with respect to (i) the strategy, timing and form for obtaining any necessary approval of, for responding to any request from, inquiry or investigation by, or execution of any remedy required by, any Governmental
Authority that has authority to enforce any Competition Law or other Law related to any condition set forth in Section 8.01 (including directing the timing, nature and substance of all such responses, including any
analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party in connection with the subject matter of this Section 5.03), and (ii) the
defense and settlement of any action brought by or before any Governmental Authority that has authority to enforce any Competition 

  
 96 

 
Law or other Law related to any condition set forth in Section 8.01; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing (but without limiting its
obligations hereunder, including its obligation to respond to and address any issues raised by any Governmental Authority as promptly as possible), Buyer shall, after consulting in good faith with Sapphire and acting reasonably, retain control over
any offers to applicable Governmental Authorities required to undertake any action contemplated by Section 5.03(d). 
 (g)
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (including Section 5.21 (No Alternative Transaction), from the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement and (ii) the Principal Closing,
neither Buyer and Sapphire shall, and each of Buyer and Sapphire shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, acquire any business or part thereof, if such acquisition would reasonably be expected to impose any material
delay in the obtaining of, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, the consent or approval from any Governmental Authority necessary to consummate the Principal Closing, including clearances under Competition Laws, clearances under all
Foreign Investment Laws and clearances under all financial regulatory or other applicable Laws with the relevant Governmental Authorities. 

Section 5.04. Shared Contracts; Intercompany Balances. 

(a) Following the execution of this Agreement and prior to each Relevant Closing, Sellers and Buyer will use reasonable best efforts to
cooperate and identify any Contracts which the Parties mutually agree are Buyer Shared Contracts or Seller Shared Contracts but which were previously not included on Schedule 3.18(c) or otherwise identified by Sellers to
Buyer. As promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement (and in any event at least thirty (30) days prior to the Principal Closing), Sapphire shall provide Buyer with a list indicating (i) those Buyer Shared Contracts
that may be separated and assigned in part to Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate) or replicated for the benefit of Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate) pursuant to its terms, without the consent of the counterparty thereto or other conditions,
including the payment of a transfer or other fee, without a breach thereunder or a violation of Law and without resulting in a Liability to the Party intended to assign (or accept assignment of) such Buyer Shared Contract (collectively, the
“Assignable Buyer Shared Contracts”) and (ii) those Seller Shared Contracts that may be separated and assigned in part to Sellers (or the applicable Retained Entity) or replicated for the benefit of Sellers (or the applicable
Retained Entity) pursuant to its terms, without the consent of the counterparty thereto or other conditions, including the payment of a transfer or other fee, without a breach thereunder or a violation of Law and without resulting in a Liability to
the Party intended to assign (or accept assignment of) such Seller Shared Contract (collectively, the “Assignable Seller Shared Contracts” and, together with the Assignable Buyer Shared Contracts, the “Assignable Shared
Contracts”). Thereafter, (A) each Assignable Buyer Shared Contract shall be deemed (to the extent of the separation, partial assignment or replication with respect to the portion of such Assignable Buyer Shared Contract that relates to
any of the Businesses) to be a Purchased Contract hereunder and Sellers shall separate and partially assign (or cause to be separated and partially assigned) to Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate), or have or cause to be replicated, for the benefit
of Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate) as of the Relevant Closing such Assignable Buyer Shared Contract in accordance with its terms and (B) each Assignable Seller Shared Contract shall be deemed (to the extent of the separation or replication
with respect to the portion of such Assignable Seller Shared Contract that relates to any of the Retained Businesses) to be an Excluded Shared Contract hereunder and Sellers shall cause the applicable Transferred

  
 97 

 
Entity to separate and partially assign to a Seller (or the applicable Retained Entity), or have or cause to be replicated, for the benefit of Seller (or the applicable Retained Entity) as of the
Relevant Closing such Assignable Seller Shared Contract in accordance with its terms. The Parties shall cooperate and provide each other with reasonable assistance in effecting such separation and partial assignment of the Shared Contracts prior to
the Relevant Closing and for a period of twelve (12) months following the Relevant Closing. 
 (b) With respect to (i) each Buyer
Shared Contract that is not an Assignable Buyer Shared Contract or that the Parties are unable to separate prior to the Relevant Closing (collectively, the “Non-Assignable Buyer Shared
Contracts”) and (ii) each Seller Shared Contract that is not an Assignable Seller Shared Contract or that Parties are unable to separate prior to the Relevant Closing (collectively, the
“Non-Assignable Seller Shared Contracts” and, together with the Non-Assignable Buyer Shared Contracts, the
“Non-Assignable Shared Contracts”), until the earliest of (x) the expiration of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract in accordance with its terms,
(y) the date that is the third (3rd) anniversary of the Principal Closing Date, and (z) the date on which such Non-Assignable Shared Contract is separated (such date contemplated by clauses (x)-(z),
the “Cessation Date”), to the extent permissible under Law and under the terms of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract, Buyer and Sapphire shall (and shall cause its applicable Affiliates
to) (A) perform all applicable obligations under such Non-Assignable Shared Contract to which it or its Affiliates is party and assume the Liabilities under such
Non-Assignable Shared Contract relating to its respective business or that of its Affiliates (and shall promptly reimburse the other Party for any expenses relating thereto incurred by the other Party or its
Affiliates), (B) hold in trust for the benefit of the other Party (or its respective Affiliates), and shall promptly forward to the other Party (or its respective Affiliates), any income, proceeds and other monies received pursuant to such Non-Assignable Shared Contract relating to the respective business of the other Party (or its respective Affiliates), (C) enforce, at the request and for the account of the other Party, or allow such other Party and
its Affiliates to enforce, in a commercially reasonable manner, any rights under such Non-Assignable Shared Contract (including the right to elect to renew or terminate such Shared Contract in accordance with
its terms) against the counterparty thereto (provided that (x) this clause (C) shall not obligate the Transferred Entity or Retained Entity Party to a Non-Assignable Shared Contract, or any of
its respective Affiliates, to commence any litigation and (y) the costs and expenses of such enforcement incurred by such Transferred Entity or Retained Entity or its Affiliates at such other Party’s request shall be borne solely by such
other Party), (D) use reasonable best efforts provide the other Party and its Affiliates with the economic benefits of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract and to institute and cooperate in alternative
arrangements intended to put the Parties in a substantially similar economic position, in each case, as if such Non-Assignable Shared Contract were separated as an Assignable Shared Contract at the Relevant
Closing and (E) use reasonable best efforts to obtain any requisite Third Party Approvals with respect to the separation and partial assignment of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract or otherwise enter
into a new Contract (any such new Contract, a “Replacement Contract”) with Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate) or Sellers (or the applicable Retained Entity), as applicable, intended to provide Buyer (or its applicable Affiliate),
the Transferred Entities or the Businesses, in the case of a Non-Assignable Buyer Shared Contract, or the Retained Entities or the Retained Businesses, in the case of a
Non-Assignable Seller Shared Contract, with contract rights and obligations that are substantially similar in the aggregate (taking into account changes in volume and similar pricing metrics, as well as the
needs of each applicable Party) to those contract rights and obligations utilized by any Seller or any of its Affiliates under the Non-

  
 98 

 
Assignable Shared Contract in the conduct of the Businesses or the Retained Businesses, as applicable, prior to the Relevant Closing. No Party shall be required to separate, partially assign or
replace any Non-Assignable Shared Contract for which any requisite Third Party Approval has not been obtained. To the extent any counterparty under a Non-Assignable
Shared Contract requires the payment of a transfer or other fee for the separation, partial assignment or replacement of such Non-Assignable Shared Contract, Sapphire and Buyer shall bear (or cause, in the
case of Buyer, its applicable Permitted Designees to bear or, in the case of Sapphire, its applicable designee to bear) one half of the amount of such fee. Upon obtaining any such requisite Third Party Approval, the relevant Non-Assignable Shared Contract shall promptly be separated, partially assigned or replaced, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Party (or its applicable Affiliate) that is entitled to receive such Shared
Contract (or the applicable portion thereof to be so separated, partially assigned or replaced) hereunder at no additional cost to such Party (or its applicable Affiliate). With respect to Liabilities based upon, relating to or arising from a given
Shared Contract, such Liabilities shall, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement, a Replacement Contract or other alternative arrangements contemplated by this Section 5.04, be allocated from the Relevant
Closing until the Cessation Date between Sellers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as the case may be, based on the relative proportions of total benefits received (to the extent the Liabilities
relate to a specific period, over such period, and otherwise over the term of the applicable Shared Contract, measured up to the date of the allocation, without duplication) by Sellers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, or Buyer and its
Affiliates, on the other hand, under the relevant Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) Buyer shall be solely responsible for any and all Liabilities to the extent based upon, relating to or arising from any breach of any Shared
Contract caused by action or inaction of Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) unless such action or inaction was taken (or not taken) at the request of Sapphire or any of its Affiliates, and (B) Sapphire shall be solely
responsible for any and all Liabilities to the extent based upon, relating to or arising from any breach of any Shared Contract caused by action or inaction of Sapphire or its Affiliates (including the Retained Entities) unless such action or
inaction was taken (or not taken) at the request of Buyer or any of its Affiliates. 
 (c) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.04(c),
Sapphire shall cause (i) all Intercompany Balances to be eliminated by settlement, discharge or otherwise (without premium or penalty) in their entirety and (ii) to be terminated all Contracts between any Transferred Entity, on the one
hand, and Sapphire or any of its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities), on the other hand (excluding any Intercompany Trade Balances and any arms-length ordinary course commercial transactions between the Retained Businesses and the
Businesses), in each case of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), effective on or prior to the Principal Closing, without any further obligation or Liability to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities). 

Section 5.05. Third Party Approvals and Permits. 

(a) Except with respect to Regulatory Approvals which are addressed in Section 5.03, and the Shared Contracts which
are addressed in Section 5.04, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Relevant Closing, each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to
(i) obtain the consents, waivers, approvals, orders and authorizations (the “Third Party Approvals”) necessary to transfer and assign the Non-Assignable Assets, and (ii) provide all
notices and otherwise take all reasonable actions necessary to transfer 

  
 99 

 
any transferable Permits or reissue or obtain any replacement Permits (the “Permit Approvals”) required to be transferred, reissued or obtained as a result of or in furtherance
of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and that are material to the operation of the Businesses or the Retained Businesses, as applicable. To the extent that any Third Party Approval or Permit Approval has not been obtained
prior to the Relevant Closing Date, for up to twelve (12) months after the Relevant Closing Date, each of Sapphire and Buyer shall, and shall cause each of its respective Affiliates to, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such Third Party
Approval or Permit Approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to incur any Liabilities or provide any financial accommodation in order to obtain any such Third Party Approval or Permit Approval. Upon obtaining any such
requisite Third Party Approval, the relevant Non-Assignable Asset or Permit shall promptly be transferred and assigned to the Transferee at no additional cost to the Transferee (or any of its Affiliates). 

(b) To the extent permitted by Law, in the event any Third Party Approval or Permit Approval has not been obtained by the Relevant Closing, the
Party contemplated to be transferring or causing to be transferred such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit under this Agreement (the “Transferring Party”) shall hold in trust for the Party to whom
such Non-Assignable Asset is contemplated to be transferred under this Agreement (the “Transferee”), and shall promptly forward to the Transferee any income, proceeds and other monies received
in respect of, the relevant Non-Assignable Asset or Permit until such time as the Third Party Approval or Permit Approval is obtained (or, if a Contract or Permit, until the expiration or renewal thereof);
provided that to the extent not prohibited by the terms of any Non-Assignable Asset or Permit, as applicable, or applicable Law, the Parties shall treat, as applicable, the non-Transferring Party or its relevant Subsidiary as the owner thereof for applicable Tax purposes as of the Closing Date. To the extent not prohibited by such Non-Assignable
Asset or Permit or under applicable Law, (i) the Transferring Party agrees to use reasonable best efforts to provide the Transferee with the economic benefits of any such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit in
a manner to place the Transferee in a substantially similar position as if such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit had been assigned or transferred at the Relevant Closing, (ii) the Parties agree to use
reasonable best efforts to enter into and cooperate in arrangements with each other and the relevant third party intended to transitionally allow the Transferring Party to operate with or under the relevant
Non-Assignable Asset or Permit so that the Transferee can receive or incur the relevant benefits and Liabilities of such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit until the
expiration or renewal of such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit in a manner to place the Transferee in a substantially similar position as if such Non-Assignable Asset or
Permit had been assigned or transferred at the Relevant Closing and (iii) the Transferring Party agrees to perform all applicable obligations under such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit and enforce, at the
request and for the account of the Transferee, or allow the Transferee and its Affiliates to enforce, in a commercially reasonable manner, any rights in respect of such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit
(including the right to elect to renew or terminate such Non-Assignable Asset or Permit in accordance with its terms) of the Transferring Party arising therefrom (provided that (x) this clause
(iii) shall not obligate the Transferring Party or any of its respective Affiliates to commence any litigation and (y) the costs and expenses of such enforcement incurred by the Transferring Party or its Affiliates at the Transferee’s
request shall be borne solely by the Transferee). The Transferring Party, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall not have any Liability to the other Party or its Affiliates for actions taken in accordance with the request or
direction of the Transferee or its Affiliates with respect to any Non-Assignable Asset or Permit.

 Section 5.06. Business Guarantees. 

(a) Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, with respect to those Business Guarantees that have been identified to Buyer by Sapphire at
least five (5) Business Days in advance of the Relevant Closing (the “Identified Business Guarantees”), use reasonable best efforts, and Sellers shall provide all reasonable assistance as is necessary to Buyer and its Affiliates to,
obtain from the respective beneficiary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Sellers, on or before the Relevant Closing, valid and binding written releases of the Retained Entities under any Identified Business Guarantees in effect as of
the Relevant Closing, which release shall be effective at such Relevant Closing, which may include providing substitute guarantees and furnishing letters of credit, instituting escrow arrangements, posting surety or performance bonds or making other
arrangements as such counterparty may reasonably request. Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to provide Sellers an opportunity to participate in any meeting with any beneficiary of any Business Guarantee regarding the release of such Business
Guarantee. If any Business Guarantee identified by Sapphire to Buyer has not been released at the Relevant Closing Date, then Buyer shall, for up to 180 days following the Relevant Closing Date, use reasonable best efforts after such Closing to
cause each such unreleased Identified Business Guarantee to be released promptly by means of a valid and binding written release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Sellers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time
on or after the Relevant Closing Date, any Retained Entity may, in such Person’s sole discretion, take any action in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of the applicable Business Guarantee to terminate, obtain release of or otherwise
limit its Liability under any and all outstanding Business Guarantees. Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Retained Entities from and after the Relevant Closing for any Liabilities based upon, arising out of, or relating to any Business
Guarantees incurred by such Retained Entities after the Relevant Closing. 
 (b) Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use
reasonable best efforts, and Buyer shall provide all reasonable assistance as is necessary to Sapphire and its Affiliates to, obtain from the respective beneficiary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, on or before the Relevant
Closing, valid and binding written releases of the Transferred Entities under any all guarantees, letters of credit, letters of comfort, bonds (including customs, bid and performance bonds), sureties and other credit support or assurances provided
by any of the Transferred Entities (or entered into in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Relevant Closing with the prior written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) in support of any obligation of the Retained Businesses or the Retained Entities in effect as of the Relevant Closing, which release shall be effective at such Relevant Closing, which may include
providing substitute guarantees and furnishing letters of credit, instituting escrow arrangements, posting surety or performance bonds or making other arrangements as such counterparty may reasonably request. Sapphire shall use reasonable best
efforts to provide Buyer an opportunity to participate in any meeting with any beneficiary of any such regarding the release of such Retained Business Guarantee. If any Retained Business Guarantee has not been released at the Relevant Closing Date,
then Sapphire shall, for up to 180 days following the Relevant Closing Date, use commercially reasonable efforts after such Closing (which may include providing substitute guarantees and furnishing letters of credit, instituting escrow arrangements,
posting surety or performance bonds or making other arrangements as such counterparty may reasonably request) to cause each such unreleased Retained Business Guarantee to be released promptly by means of a valid and binding

  
 101 

 
written release in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time on or after the Relevant Closing Date, Buyer may, in its sole
discretion, take any action in accordance with applicable Law and the terms of the applicable Retained Business Guarantee to terminate, obtain release of or otherwise limit its Liability under any and all outstanding Retained Business Guarantees.
Sapphire shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from and after the Relevant Closing for any Liabilities based upon, arising out of, or relating to any Retained Business Guarantees incurred by such Transferred Entities after the Relevant Closing.

 Section 5.07. Post-Closing Asset Transfers; Certain Payments. If, before the fifth anniversary of the Principal
Closing, any of the Retained Entities receives or otherwise possess any Transferred Asset or other property or asset (including cash or cash equivalents) that should belong to Buyer or any of its Permitted Designees pursuant to this Agreement (and
should have transferred to Buyer or any of its Permitted Designees at the Relevant Closing), Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such asset to Buyer or its applicable Permitted Designees,
for no additional consideration, and to the extent such asset is cash or cash equivalents, Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide a general explanation or description of such transfer. Prior to any such transfer, Sapphire shall,
and shall cause the other Sellers to, hold such property or asset in trust for the benefit of Buyer. In the event that at any time after the Principal Closing Date, Buyer or its Affiliates, including the Transferred Entities (or Permitted Designees
that received Transferred Assets or Transferred Entities as contemplated by this Agreement and their respective Affiliates), receive or otherwise possess any Excluded Asset or other property or asset (including cash or cash equivalents) that should
belong to the Sellers or their Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such property or asset to the Sellers or their appropriate Affiliate, for no additional consideration, and to the extent
such asset is cash or cash equivalents, Buyer shall provide a general explanation or description of such transfer. Prior to any such transfer, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (and Permitted Designees that received Transferred Assets or
Transferred Entities as contemplated by this Agreement and their respective Affiliates) to, hold such property or asset in trust for the benefit of Sellers. In the case of any trade accounts receivable (whether current or non-current) and trade accounts payable of the Transferred Entities as of the Relevant Closing Date that constitute Excluded Assets (or Non-Business Assets) or Excluded
Liabilities (or Non-Business Liabilities), respectively, Buyer shall, or cause its applicable Subsidiary (or Permitted Designees that received Transferred Assets or Transferred Entities as contemplated by this
Agreement and their respective Affiliates) to, use reasonable best efforts to collect such accounts receivable and pay such accounts payable as promptly as reasonably practicable and, upon such collection or payment, pay the funds received therefor
to Sapphire or its designee or submit an invoice to Sapphire for any such payment made (which Sapphire shall pay, or cause to be paid, as promptly as reasonably practicable), as applicable. Sapphire shall pay or shall cause to be paid in the
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice of the Businesses, and in accordance with applicable Law, any Retained Fiduciary Accounts Payable. Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice of the Businesses, and in accordance with applicable Law, any Transferred Fiduciary Accounts Payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any of the provisions of this Section 5.07 would conflict or be
inconsistent with the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, this Agreement shall control in respect of such matter in conflict. 

  
 102 

 Section 5.08. Intellectual Property Matters. 

(a) Buyer and its Affiliates (and Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) have, and after the Relevant Closing, the Transferred
Entities shall have, no right, title, interest, license or any other right whatsoever in the Seller Marks, except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.08, and none of Sellers or any of their Affiliates have pursuant to
the Transaction Documents assigned or licensed such right, title, interest or other right to Buyer, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities or to Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates. 

(b) As promptly as practicable after the Relevant Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the Transferred Entities (and
Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to change all signage containing the Seller Marks, either by covering or removing such signage, including any signage affixed to any real property of Buyer, its Affiliates, or any Transferred
Entity (or of Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates). As soon as is reasonably practicable following the Relevant Closing, but in no event later than six (6) months following the Relevant Closing Date, unless (and only to the
extent that) a longer period is required by Section 5.08(c) below or otherwise by relevant Governmental Authorities, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the Transferred Entities (and Permitted Designees and
their respective Affiliates) to, discontinue all use of the Seller Marks and, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, remove all Seller Marks from websites, marketing and promotional materials, invoices, business cards, schedules, displays,
stationery, technical guidelines and other supplies and similar materials that incorporate the Seller Marks, whether any of the foregoing materials are held by Buyer, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities (or Permitted Designees and their
respective Affiliates) or under the control of Buyer, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities (or Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 5.08 shall
prohibit Buyer or its Affiliates (or Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) from (i) using the Seller Marks in a non-trademark manner as is reasonably necessary for historical reference in
communications in connection with the administration of the Business or with Governmental Authorities, (ii) retaining or using for Buyer’s or its Affiliates’ (or Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates’) internal
business purposes, records and other historical or archived documents containing or referencing the Seller Marks, provided that such materials are rebranded in the ordinary course of business, or (iii) using the Seller Marks to the extent
required by applicable Law. 
 (c) As promptly as practicable, but in no event later ninety (90) days following the Relevant Closing
Date, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and the Transferred Entities (and Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, file any documentation necessary to change the names of the
Transferred Entities to remove the words “Willis Towers Watson,” and any derivation, adaptation, combination or translation thereof, including by making filings with the applicable Governmental Authority of each jurisdiction in which the
ownership or the operation of the Transferred Entities’ assets or the character of its activities is such as to require it to be licensed or qualified in such jurisdiction. If the approval of any Governmental Authority is needed prior to Buyer
or its Affiliates (or Permitted Designees or their respective Affiliates) filing any such documentation, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates 

  
 103 

 
and the Transferred Entities (and Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, use reasonable best efforts to obtain such approval as promptly as practicable (including filing for
such approval as promptly as practicable and in no event later than ninety (90) days following the Relevant Closing Date), and upon receipt of such approval, shall file such documentation as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than
ninety (90) days following receipt of such approval. 
 (d) As promptly as practicable after the Relevant Closing, Sapphire shall, and
shall cause its Affiliates to, change all signage containing the Business Trademarks, either by covering or removing such signage, including any signage affixed to any real property of Sellers or their Affiliates. As soon as is reasonably
practicable following the Relevant Closing, but in no event later than two (2) months following the Relevant Closing Date, Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, discontinue all use of the Business Trademarks and, at Sapphire’s
sole cost and expense, remove all Business Trademarks from websites, marketing and promotional materials, invoices, business cards, schedules, displays, stationery, technical guidelines and other supplies and similar materials that incorporate the
Business Trademarks, whether any of the foregoing materials are held by Sapphire or its Affiliates or under the control of Sapphire or its Affiliates. If the approval of any Governmental Authority is needed prior to Sapphire or any of its Affiliates
filing any such documentation to effectuate the foregoing, Sapphire shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain such approval as promptly as practicable (including filing for such approval as promptly as practicable and in no event later than two
(2) months following the Relevant Closing Date), and upon receipt of such approval, shall file such documentation as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than two (2) months following receipt of such approval. 

Section 5.09. Insurance. 

(a) From and after the Relevant Closing, none of Buyer or its Affiliates (including, after the Relevant Closing, the Transferred Entities), or
Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates, shall have access to any insurance policies maintained for the benefit of the Retained Entities, including for the avoidance of doubt, any self-insurance, fronted insurance, captive insurance or
reinsurance policy or program (collectively, the “Retained Policies”), other than as expressly set forth herein (including in accordance with Section 5.09(b)) or in connection with any Assumed Employee
Plans. 
 (b) Sapphire will, and will cause its Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to, keep insurance policies currently maintained
in respect of the Businesses, the Transferred Assets, the Transferred Employees or former employees of the Transferred Entities, as the case may be, or suitable replacements therefor, in full force and effect through the close of business on the
Relevant Closing. From and after the Relevant Closing, with respect to any claim occurrence, act, omission, event or circumstance relating to the Transferred Entities, Transferred Assets, Transferred Employees (to the extent transferred at a
Closing) or former employees of the Transferred Entities that occurred or existed prior to the Relevant Closing and that would be covered by any of the Retained Entities’ or any of their Affiliates’ occurrence-based (but not claims-made or
occurrence-reported) Retained Policies issued by a third party insurer that is not an Affiliate of the Retained Entities (excluding any self-insurance, fronted insurance, captive insurance or reinsurance policy or program) (such policies, the
“Retained Available Insurance Policies” and such claims, the “Retained Coverage Claims”), Buyer, on behalf of itself or its Affiliates (including the Transferred 

  
 104 

 
Entities) or its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates, may make and pursue Retained Coverage Claims under the Retained Available Insurance Policies, subject to the terms and
conditions of such Retained Available Insurance Policies; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall exclusively bear the amount of any “deductibles” or self-insurance retentions associated with Retained Coverage Claims
under such Retained Available Insurance Policies and shall otherwise be liable for all uninsured or uncovered amounts of such claims, (ii) Buyer shall be solely responsible at its expense for notifying any and all insurance companies of such
claims and complying with all policy terms and conditions for pursuit and collection of coverage and proceeds with respect to such Retained Coverage Claims (provided, that Sapphire and its Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in
respect of such actions) and shall not, without the prior written consent of any Seller, amend, modify or waive any rights of any Seller or other insureds under any such Retained Available Insurance Policies, (iii) with respect to Retained
Coverage Claims or requests for benefits asserted by Buyer or the Transferred Entities under the Retained Available Insurance Policies, Sellers shall have the right but not the duty to monitor and/or associate with such Retained Coverage Claims,
(iv) Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall be liable for any fees, costs, taxes, assessments, retrospective premium adjustments or expenses incurred by Sapphire or Sellers directly or indirectly through the insurers or reinsurers of the
Retained Available Insurance Policies to the extent arising out of any Retained Coverage Claim and (v) Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall not assign any Retained Available Insurance Policies or any rights or claims under the Retained
Available Insurance Policies. Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, provide Buyer with the net proceeds realized with respect to such Retained Coverage Claims. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, but subject to the two
immediately following sentences, Sapphire and Sellers shall retain the exclusive right to control all of their insurance policies and programs, including the Retained Available Insurance Policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release,
commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its insurance policies and to amend, modify, terminate or waive any such insurance policies and programs or any rights thereunder;
provided that Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers with respect to Retained Coverage Claims and requests for benefits and sharing such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit Sapphire
and Sellers to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Sapphire reasonably deems appropriate. Sapphire shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with Buyer and its Affiliates as is reasonably requested by Buyer or its applicable
Affiliate, at Buyer’s sole cost, in order to permit Buyer and its Affiliates to submit and pursue Retained Coverage Claims, and Sapphire shall consult with Buyer prior to making any material decision or taking any material action relating to
any such Retained Coverage Claim. Sapphire or any of its Affiliates may, in their reasonable discretion, amend any Retained Available Insurance Policies, to be effective as of the Relevant Closing, in any manner they reasonably deem appropriate to
give effect to this Section 5.09; provided that neither Sapphire nor any of its Affiliates may take any action that would materially reduce, modify, waive or eliminate any coverage, terms and conditions or policy
limits to the detriment of Buyer or any of its Affiliates in respect of any Retained Coverage Claims and its rights under this Section 5.09. 

(c) From and after the Relevant Closing, with respect to any claim, occurrence, act, omission, event or circumstance relating to the Retained
Entities, Excluded Assets, employees other than Transferred Employees (to the extent transferred at a Closing) or former employees of the Retained Entities that occurred or existed prior to the Relevant Closing and that would be covered by any of
the occurrence-based (but not claims-made or occurrence-reported) insurance 

  
 105 

 
policies issued by a third party insurer that is not a Transferred Entity or an Affiliate thereof maintained by the Transferred Entities (such policies, excluding any self-insurance, fronted
insurance, captive insurance or reinsurance policy or program, the “Transferred Available Insurance Policies” and such claims, the “Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims”), Sapphire, on behalf of
itself or its Affiliates (including the Retained Entities), may make and pursue Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims under the Transferred Available Insurance Policies, subject to the terms and conditions of such Transferred Available Insurance
Policies; provided, however, that (i) Sapphire (or its applicable Affiliate) shall exclusively bear the amount of any “deductibles” or self-insured retentions associated with Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims under
such Transferred Available Insurance Policies and shall otherwise be liable for all uninsured or uncovered amounts of such Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims, (ii) Sapphire or its applicable Affiliate shall be solely responsible at their
expense for notifying any and all insurance companies of such Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims and complying with all policy terms and conditions for pursuit and collection of coverage and proceeds with respect to such Section 5.09(c)
Coverage Claims (provided that Buyer shall, and shall cause the Transferred Entities to, reasonably cooperate with Sapphire in respect of such actions) and shall not, and shall cause the Transferred Entities not to, without the written
consent of Buyer, amend, modify or waive any rights of any Transferred Entity or other insureds under any such insurance policies and programs, (iii) with respect to coverage claims or requests for benefits asserted by Sapphire or the Retained
Entities under the Transferred Available Insurance Policies, Buyer shall have the right but not the duty to monitor and/or associate with such claims, (iv) Sapphire and the Retained Entities shall be liable for any fees, costs, taxes,
assessments, retrospective premium adjustments or expenses incurred by Buyer directly or indirectly through the insurers or reinsurers of the Transferred Available Insurance Policies to the extent arising out of any Section 5.09(c) Coverage
Claims and (v) Sapphire and the Retained Entities shall not assign any Transferred Available Insurance Policies or any rights or claims under the Transferred Available Insurance Policies. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (and its
Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, provide Sapphire with the net proceeds realized with respect to such Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, but subject to the immediately following
sentence, Buyer shall retain the exclusive right to control all of its and its Affiliates’ insurance policies and programs, including the Transferred Available Insurance Policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of the Transferred Entities’ insurance policies and to amend, modify, terminate or waive any such insurance policies and programs or any rights
thereunder; provided, that Sapphire and the Retained Entities shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer with respect to Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims and requests for benefits and sharing such information as is reasonably necessary in
order to permit Buyer to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Buyer reasonably deems appropriate. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (and its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, cooperate with Sellers and their
Affiliates as is reasonably requested by a Seller or its applicable Affiliate, at Sapphire’s sole cost, in order to permit Sellers and their Affiliates to submit and pursue Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claims, and Buyer shall, and shall cause
its Affiliates (and its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, consult with Sapphire prior to making any material decision or taking any material action relating to any such Section 5.09(c) Coverage Claim.

 (d) Without limiting the foregoing, Sapphire will, and will cause its Affiliates to, use
reasonable best efforts, to keep insurance policies currently maintained in respect of E&O Claims, or suitable replacements therefor (the “Interim E&O Policies”), in full force and effect from the Principal Closing through
the close of business on date of the latest Relevant Closing. With respect to any E&O Claims relating to the Businesses or Transferred Assets (or portion thereof) transferred to Buyer or its Affiliates or Permitted Designees at the Deferred
Closing in respect of occurrences prior to the applicable Relevant Closing (the “Interim E&O Claims”) that would be covered by any such insurance policies, upon the written request of Buyer, Sapphire shall make and pursue such
Interim E&O Claims under the Interim E&O Policies, subject to the terms and conditions of the Interim E&O Policies; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall exclusively bear the amount of any “deductibles” or self-insurance
retentions associated with Interim E&O Claims under such Interim E&O Policies and shall otherwise be liable for all uninsured or uncovered amounts of such claims, (ii) Buyer shall be solely responsible at their expense for notifying any
and all insurance companies of such claims and complying with all policy terms and conditions for pursuit and collection of coverage and proceeds with respect to such Interim E&O Claims (provided, that Sapphire and its Affiliates shall
reasonably cooperate with Buyer in respect of such actions) and shall not, without the prior written consent of Sapphire, amend, modify or waive any rights of any Seller or other insureds under any such Interim E&O Policies, (iii) with
respect to Interim E&O Claims or requests for benefits asserted by Buyer or the Transferred Entities under the Interim E&O Policies, Sellers shall have the right but not the duty to monitor and/or associate with such Interim E&O Claims,
(iv) Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall be liable for any fees, costs, taxes, assessments, retrospective premium adjustments or expenses incurred by Sellers directly or indirectly through the insurers or reinsurers of the Interim E&O
Policies to the extent arising out of any Interim E&O Claim and (v) Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall not assign any Interim E&O Policies or any rights or claims under the Interim E&O Policies. Sapphire shall, and shall cause
its Affiliates to, provide Buyer with the net proceeds realized with respect to such Interim E&O Claims. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, but subject to the immediately following sentence, Sellers shall retain the exclusive right to
control all of their insurance policies and programs, including the Interim E&O Policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buy-back or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to
any of its insurance policies and to amend, modify, terminate or waive any such insurance policies and programs or any rights thereunder; provided that Buyer and the Transferred Entities shall reasonably cooperate with Sellers with respect to
Interim E&O Claims and requests for benefits and sharing such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit Sellers to manage and conduct its insurance matters as Sellers reasonably deem appropriate. Sapphire shall, and shall cause
its Affiliates to, cooperate with Buyer and its Affiliates and its Permitted Designees as is reasonably requested by Buyer or its applicable Affiliate or designee, at Buyer’s sole cost, in order to permit Buyer and its Affiliates and Permitted
Designees to submit and pursue Interim E&O Claims, and Sapphire shall consult with Buyer prior to making any material decision or taking any material action relating to any such Interim E&O Claim. 

Section 5.10. Legal Proceedings; Production of Witnesses; Privileged Matters. 

(a) Subject to Article IX and Section 5.09, following the Relevant Closing, (i) Buyer
and its Affiliates shall have exclusive authority and control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions exclusively arising out of or related to Assumed Liabilities and all Liabilities of the Businesses or Transferred
Entities (in each case, to the extent transferred to or assumed by Buyer or its Affiliates at the Relevant Closing) and may settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action, without the consent of the
Sellers or any of their Affiliates, (ii) Sellers and their Affiliates shall have exclusive authority and 

  
 107 

 
control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions exclusively arising out of or related to Excluded Liabilities, Non-Business
Liabilities and all Liabilities of the Retained Businesses, and may settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any such Action, without the consent of Buyer or its Affiliates and (iii) Sellers and Buyer shall
jointly share authority and control and cooperate in good faith with respect to the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions that relate to both of the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii). 

(b) From and after the Principal Closing, Sapphire, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective
Affiliates (and Buyer shall cause its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, use reasonable best efforts to make available to each other, upon reasonable written request, their (and their Affiliates’) respective
Representatives, documents and information for fact finding, consultation and interviews and as witnesses to the extent that any such Representatives, documents and information may reasonably be required in connection with any Actions in which the
requesting Party may from time to time be involved relating to the conduct of the Businesses or the Retained Businesses, prior to, at or after the Principal Closing. Access to such Representatives, documents and information shall be granted during
normal business hours at a location and in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruption to such Representatives, the Businesses, and the Retained Businesses, as applicable. Sapphire, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, agree to
reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including attorneys’ fees and travel expenses, but excluding officers’ or employees’ salaries,
incurred by the other Party in connection with providing access to Representatives pursuant to this Section 5.10(b). 

(c) No Party shall have an obligation to cooperate, make available personnel or disclose any documents or other information pursuant to
Sections 5.10(a) or 5.10(b) or Article VI, if Sellers or any of their Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in any Action
and such assistance, testimony, documents or other information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided, however, that this sentence shall not limit in any respect any rights a Party may have with respect to discovery or the
production of documents or other information in connection with any such Action. 
 (d) The Parties agree that their respective rights and
obligations to maintain, preserve, assert or waive any attorney-client and work product privileges belonging to any Party with respect to the Businesses, the Transferred Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Retained Businesses, the Excluded Assets,
the Excluded Liabilities, the Non-Business Assets or the Non-Business Liabilities (collectively, “Privileges”), shall be governed by the provisions of
this Section 5.10(d). With respect to (i) matters relating to the Retained Businesses, the Excluded Assets, the Excluded Liabilities, the Non-Business Assets or the Non-Business Liabilities, (ii) Tax matters and (iii) Business Records of Sellers or any of their Affiliates (A) prepared in connection with any Transaction Document or the transactions contemplated
thereby or (B) relating to the sale process for the Businesses, bids received from other Persons in connection with such sale process and information and analysis (including financial analysis) relating to such sale process (clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii), collectively, “Specified Matters and Information”), Sellers shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges, including the right to assert any Privilege against Buyer
and its Affiliates. After the Relevant Closing, Buyer shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges with respect to matters to the extent Relating 

  
 108 

 
to the Businesses (except for the Specified Matters and Information). However, Buyer may not assert any such Privileges related to pre-Closing advice or
communications Relating to the Businesses against Sellers and their Affiliates. The rights and obligations created by this Section 5.10(d) shall apply to all Specified Matters and Information as to which Sellers, their
Affiliates, or the Transferred Entities would be entitled to assert or has asserted a Privilege without regard to the effect, if any, of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Privileged Information”). Upon receipt by Sellers or
their Affiliates, or Buyer and its Affiliates (including, as of the Relevant Closing Date, the applicable Transferred Entities) (or Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates), as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request
from any Person that actually calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party, Sellers or Buyer shall promptly notify the other Parties of the existence of the request and shall provide such other Party a
reasonable opportunity to review the Privileged Information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 5.10(d) or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Sellers’
transfer of any Transferred Business Records or other information to Buyer and its Affiliates (and its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) in accordance with this Agreement and Sellers’ agreement to permit Buyer to obtain
information existing prior to the Relevant Closing are made in reliance on the Parties’ respective agreements, as set forth in this Section 5.10(d), to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to take the
steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by Sellers or Buyer, as the case may be. The access to Business Records and other information being granted pursuant to
Sections 5.02, 5.10, 5.11, and Article VI, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to this Section 5.10 and the disclosure to Buyer and Sellers of
Privileged Information Relating to the Businesses or relating to the Retained Businesses pursuant to this Agreement in connection with the Transactions shall not be asserted by Sellers or Buyer or their respective Affiliates (or Permitted Designees
and their respective Affiliates) to constitute, or otherwise deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 5.10(d) or otherwise.  

Section 5.11. Retention of Business Records and Post-Closing Access. 

(a) Each Party will comply with legal and regulatory obligations in relation to the retention of Business Records that are applicable to that
Party and it is agreed that they and their Affiliates shall be permitted to retain copies of any Business Records transferred to the other (or its designees) to the extent required under applicable Law or the document retention policies and
procedures of the relevant Party in effect as of the date hereof. 
 (b) For a period of three (3) years from and after the Relevant
Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) (and Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to (i) give Sellers and their Representatives reasonable access to the offices, properties and
all Transferred Business Records and all Business Records of the Transferred Entities related to the conduct of the Businesses and, if applicable, the Retained Businesses, on or before the Relevant Closing Date in the possession of Buyer and its
Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) (or Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, (ii) furnish to Sellers and their Representatives copies of such records
at Sellers’ expense, and (iii) cause the Representatives of Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) (and of Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to cooperate with Sellers and their Representatives,
in each case, to the 

  
 109 

 
extent reasonably requested by Sellers in connection with accounting, Tax, legal defense and other similar needs. For a period of three (3) years from and after the Relevant Closing,
Sapphire shall, and shall cause the Retained Entities, to (A) give Buyer and its Representatives reasonable access to the offices, properties and Business Records of the Retained Entities to the extent relating to the conduct of the Businesses
on or before the Relevant Closing Date during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, (B) furnish to Buyer and its Representatives such financial and operating data and other information in possession of the Retained Entity to
the extent relating to the conduct of the Businesses on or before the Relevant Closing Date and (C) cause the employees, counsel, auditors and other Representatives of the Retained Entities to cooperate with Buyer and its Representatives, in
each case, to the extent relating to the Business and reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with accounting, Tax, legal defense and other similar needs. Any such access shall be granted in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruption
to the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may withhold such access to any document or information the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to violate any material Contract or any Law or result in the waiver of any legal
privilege or work-product privilege; provided, that, to the extent practicable and in accordance with such Contract or Law, and in a manner that does not result in the waiver of any such privilege, such Party shall make reasonable and
appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which these restrictions apply; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 5.11(b) shall limit in any respect any rights any
Party may have with respect to discovery or the production of documents or other information in connection with any litigation. 

Section 5.12. Confidentiality. 

(a) The Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the final Deferred Closing and any books and records, data and
other information provided to Buyer between the date hereof and the final Deferred Closing shall be considered Evaluation Material (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) and afforded all protections provided therein;
provided, however, effective upon, and only upon, any Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate in respect of any confidential or proprietary information to the extent Related to the Businesses and included in the
Transferred Assets or Equity Interests transferred in such Closing to Buyer or its Affiliates (and not constituting an Excluded Asset). 

(b) From and after the Principal Closing, Sellers shall keep confidential and shall not, and shall cause their Representatives and Subsidiaries
not to, directly or indirectly, for a period of four (4) years after the Principal Closing Date (except with respect to any information that is commercially sensitive or constitutes a protected trade secret under applicable law, which
information shall remain subject to the restrictions in this section indefinitely), without the prior written consent of Buyer, disclose to any third party (other than each other and their respective Representatives and Affiliates who need to know
such information and who have been informed of the confidential nature thereof and instructed to comply with the confidentiality obligations of this Section 5.12(b)) any information related to the Businesses, Transferred
Assets or Assumed Liabilities; provided, that the foregoing restriction shall not (i) apply to any information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this
Section 5.12(b)) or (ii) prohibit any disclosure (A) to the extent required by Law so long as, to the extent practicable and permitted by Law, such Seller, as applicable, provides Buyer with prompt written notice
of such requirement and, if requested by Buyer, reasonably cooperates with Buyer, 

  
 110 

 
at Buyer’s expense, in seeking a protective order or other appropriate remedy in response to such requirement (and if such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Sellers shall use
reasonable best efforts to seek reasonable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such information) or (B) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to the Transaction Documents or the
Transactions. For a period of four (4) years after the Principal Closing Date (except with respect to any information that is commercially sensitive or constitutes a protected trade secret under applicable law, which information shall remain
subject to the restrictions in this section indefinitely), Sellers further agree that they shall not, and shall cause their Representatives and Subsidiaries not to, use any such information to the extent related to the Businesses, Transferred Assets
or Assumed Liabilities for any purpose other than as reasonably necessary to comply with bona fide regulatory or legal obligations, and as reasonably necessary in the performance of their obligations under the Transaction Documents, in each case
other than information that is used by the Retained Business in the ordinary course conduct of the Retained Business consistent with past practice. 

(c) Buyer shall keep confidential and shall not, and shall cause its Representatives and Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) (and
its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates and Representatives) not to, directly or indirectly, for a period of four (4) years after the Principal Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Sellers, disclose to any third
party (other than each other and their respective Representatives and Affiliates who need to know such information and who have been informed of the confidential nature thereof and instructed to comply with the confidentiality obligations of this
Section 5.12(c)) any information related to the Retained Businesses, Excluded Assets, the Non-Business Assets or the Non-Business Liabilities
regardless of whether Buyer, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives received such information prior to, on or after the date of this Agreement; provided, that the foregoing restriction shall not (i) apply to any information
that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of disclosure in violation of this Section 5.12(c)) or (ii) prohibit any disclosure (A) to the extent required by Law so long as, to the
extent practicable and permitted by Law, Buyer provides Sellers with prompt written notice of such requirement and, if requested by Sellers, reasonably cooperates with Sellers, at Sellers’ expense, in seeking a protective order or other
appropriate remedy in response to such requirement (and if such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to seek reasonable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such information) or
(B) made in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the Transactions. For a period of four (4) years after the Principal Closing Date (except with
respect to any information that is commercially sensitive or constitutes a protected trade secret under applicable law, which information shall remain subject to the restrictions in this section indefinitely), Buyer further agrees that it shall not,
and shall cause its Representatives and Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) (and its Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates and Representatives) not to, use any such information related to the Retained Businesses, Excluded

Competitive Activity accounts for less than the greater of (x) fifteen percent (15%) of such business’ or Person’s consolidated annual revenues and (y) fifteen million Dollars ($15,000,000) in consolidated annual revenues, in
each case during the twelve months prior to such acquisition being made (or, if earlier, the entry into the definitive agreement providing for the making of such acquisition); provided, further, that in the case of any such exceptions
described in the foregoing clause (ii), during the Applicable Restricted Period, the businesses or activities owned or acquired that constitute Competitive Activity shall not be materially expanded under the ownership of Sapphire in a manner that is

 (d) Confidentiality and Use.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.13, Sapphire agrees that all confidential or proprietary information to the extent Related to the Businesses, including copies thereof retained by any Restricted
Company for any reason (including research, product plans, products, services, clients, client lists, client information, markets, developments, models and modeling), other business information and all notes, interpretations, compilations, reports,

prohibited from using any such information solely to the extent necessary for the conduct of the Deferred Business as contemplated by this Agreement or the run-off businesses of Sapphire and its Subsidiaries.

 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this
Section 5.13 (the “Restrictive Covenants”):

(including each Transferred Entity) shall have the right to seek to (A) have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to Section 11.09 and (B) have issued an
injunction restraining any such breach without posting of a bond, provision of a cross-undertaking in damages, or similar requirement; 

(ii) it is the desire and intent of the Parties that the Restrictive Covenants be enforced to the fullest extent permissible
under the Laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought and if any Restrictive Covenant shall be adjudicated finally to be invalid or unenforceable (including with respect to duration, scope or area), it is
agreed that such Restrictive Covenant shall be amended (and such court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to, and 

  
 113 

 
shall hereby be directed to, amend) to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to sever or delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term
or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable, such that the relevant amendment shall comprise the maximum less restrictive limitations permitted under applicable Law, in each case, to the extent necessary in order that such
provision be valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified; 

(iii) each Seller further acknowledges and agrees that (A) the Restrictive Covenants are fair and reasonable and necessary
in order to protect the legitimate interests of Buyer, (B) such Restrictive Covenants and agreements were a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder and (C) no such Seller shall
raise as a defense against the enforcement of any provision hereof that Buyer or its applicable Affiliate does not have a protectable interest with respect to the subject matter of the applicable claim; 

(iv) The restrictions entered into by Sapphire in this Section 5.13 are given to Buyer for itself and
as trustee and agent for each of its Affiliates, and Buyer hereby declares that to the extent that such restrictions relate to any of Buyer’s Affiliates Buyer holds the benefit of them as trustee and agent; and 

(v) each provision contained in this Section 5.13 is and shall be construed as separate and severable
and if one or more of the provisions is held to be against the public interest or unlawful or in any way an unreasonable restraint of trade or unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason the remaining provisions or parts thereof, as
appropriate, shall continue to bind each of Sapphire. 
 Section 5.14. Director and Officer Matters. 

(a) Prior to the Principal Closing, (i) each Transferred Entity shall purchase (at Sellers’ cost) an extended reporting period
endorsement under its existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for six (6) years for its respective current and former officers, directors, and managers (the “Indemnified Parties”) or
(ii) Sapphire shall have in effect for six (6) years from the Principal Closing an endorsement, rider or amendment to Sapphire’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy providing coverage for the Indemnified
Parties under such policy (and Buyer and its Affiliates may make and pursue any claims thereunder in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.09, and such policies shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, be deemed to be Retained Available Insurance Policies). 
 (b) Buyer shall, and shall cause the Transferred Entities to,
maintain in effect any and all exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the organizational documents of the Transferred Entities or in any indemnification agreements of the Transferred Entities with any of the
Indemnified Parties, in each case in effect as of the date hereof, for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Relevant Closing. 

  
 114 

 (c) Buyer shall indemnify all Indemnified Parties to the fullest extent permitted by the
organizational documents of the Transferred Entities in effect as of the date hereof with respect to all acts and omissions occurring prior to the Relevant Closing arising out of or relating to their service as directors, officers, trustees or
managers of the Transferred Entities or another Person, if such Indemnified Party is or was serving as a director, officer, trustee or manager of such other Person at the request of or for the benefit of the Transferred Entities or the Business or
as fiduciaries thereof, whether asserted or claimed at or after or occurring before the Relevant Closing (including in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement). If any Indemnified Party is or becomes involved in any Action in connection with any matter subject to indemnification under this Section 5.14, Buyer shall advance as incurred any Liabilities out of or incurred
in connection with such Action to the extent required by the organizational documents of the Transferred Entities in effect as of the date hereof. 

(d) The covenants contained in this Section 5.14 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by,
each of the Indemnified Parties and their respective heirs and legal representatives and shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnified Party is entitled, whether pursuant to Law, Contract or otherwise. 

(e) In the event any Transferred Entity or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and
shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made
so that the successors and assigns of such Transferred Entity shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 5.14.

(b) Sellers, in the case of Buyer’s (or its Affiliate’s) releases and announcements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party (or its respective Affiliates) may make any such announcement which it in good faith believes, based on
advice of outside counsel, is required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with any national securities exchange to which such Party (or its respective Affiliates) is subject; provided, that such Party shall consult with and agree on the
language of any such announcement with the other Party prior to any such announcement to the extent practicable, and shall in any event promptly provide the other Party with copies of any such announcement.

Securities Act or, in the alternative, to file only “abbreviated financial statements” of the Businesses as provided for in 2065.4-6 of the SEC Financial and Reporting Manual. Sapphire shall use its
reasonable best efforts to comment on (and to the extent reasonably requested by Buyer, provide information and materials to be used in the preparation of (provided that no financial statements shall be required to be prepared pursuant to this
Section 5.16(c)) such waiver request submitted to the SEC; provided 

  
 116 

 
that, if any such waiver is granted by the SEC, Sapphire shall not be required to furnish to Buyer the portion of the Section 5.16 Financial Statements covered by such waiver. If the SEC
notifies Buyer in writing that it will not grant such waiver, Buyer shall have no obligation to continue to seek any such waiver. 

Section 5.17. Further Assurances.

Section 5.18. R&W Insurance Policy. Buyer and Sapphire shall each pay or cause to be paid 50% of all costs and expenses
related to the R&W Insurance Policy, including the total premium, underwriting costs, brokerage commissions and other fees and expenses of such policy and, in connection therewith, promptly following the execution of this Agreement, each of
Buyer and Sapphire shall pay 50% of the required deposit fee and all other out-of-pocket payments or fees necessary to bind Buyer’s coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy. Buyer will use
commercially reasonable efforts to take all such other necessary actions to bind Buyer’s coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Principal Closing. Sellers shall provide, and shall
cause their Affiliates to provide, such cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the R&W Insurance Policy as may be reasonably requested by Buyer and which is necessary, customary or advisable in connection with Buyer’s efforts to
obtain the R&W Insurance Policy. Buyer will use reasonable best efforts to comply in all material respects with all of its obligations under the R&W Insurance Policy and the binder relating thereto necessary to the binding of the R&W

otherwise, against the Sellers, any of their respective Affiliates, or any past, present or future direct or indirect equityholder, member, manager, director, officer, partner, employee, Affiliate, agent, advisor or representative (or the functional
equivalent of any such position) (the “Seller Related Persons”), except in the case of Fraud by any such Seller Related Person and (y) that the Seller Related Persons are express third-party beneficiaries of such waiver. From and
after the Closing, Buyer shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) agree to any amendment, modification, variation, termination or waiver of the foregoing provisions of the R&W Insurance Policy without Sapphire’s

  
 117 

 
prior written consent. Buyer agrees to, and to cause its Affiliates and Representatives to, use reasonable best efforts, in coordination with Sapphire, to minimize or eliminate any exclusions
from coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy for which there is a corresponding Specified Indemnity Matter under this Agreement (each, an “Exclusion Removal”). Upon each Exclusion Removal, Exhibit K shall be modified by

 (c) From and after each Relevant Closing, in addition to (and without limiting) any
obligations under Section 5.04 and Section 5.05, (i) Buyer and Sapphire shall, and shall cause their respective applicable Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) (and Buyer shall cause its
Permitted Designees and their respective Affiliates) to, execute all such deeds and documents and use their respective reasonable best efforts to do all such things, at all times in compliance with applicable Law, as may reasonably be required to
facilitate Buyer or its applicable Affiliate (including, if applicable, the Transferred Entities) (or applicable Permitted Designee or its Affiliate) becoming the broker of record with respect to all Business Policies and (ii) Buyer shall, or
shall cause its applicable Affiliate (including, if applicable, the Transferred Entities) (and its applicable Permitted Designee and their respective Affiliates) to, execute all deeds and documents and do all such things as are reasonably required

the contrary set forth in this Agreement (other than Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d)), including the limitations on Buyer’s obligations under Section 5.04 and Section 5.05, all
performance obligations under Contracts related to Business Policies shall be deemed to constitute “Assumed Liabilities” and all revenues attributable to the performance, after the Principal Closing, of such performance obligations shall
be deemed to constitute “Transferred Assets”. In connection with the foregoing, prior to the Closing, Buyer and Sapphire shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, subject to applicable Law, cooperate in good faith to determine
an appropriate structure and plan to transfer to Buyer and its Permitted Designees and Affiliates after the Principal Closing any Fiduciary Cash, Fiduciary Accounts Receivable and Fiduciary Accounts Payable of the Retained Entities related to the
transferring Business, together with all assets and liabilities of the Retained Entities related to the transferring Business that would constitute Net Working Capital if held by a Transferred Legal Entity (with Buyer or its applicable Permitted
Designee compensating Sapphire or the applicable Seller therefor in a manner consistent with the intent of the allocation of assets and liabilities under this Agreement) (the “Post Closing Business Transfer Plan”). The Post-Closing
Business Transfer Plan shall include an appropriate post-transfer adjustment mechanism, similar to and using the reporting and dispute resolution mechanics contained in Section 2.11 (Post Closing Adjustment), which mechanism shall be performed

at such frequency as the parties may mutually agree.

representatives as each of them deems appropriate to a committee (a “Joint Steering Committee”), all of whom shall have suitable seniority and the requisite skills, knowledge, experience and authority to discuss, coordinate and make
arrangements related to the matters described in this Section 5.21, and will be subject to confidentiality and other restrictions necessary or appropriate to ensure compliance with any

  
 119 

 
applicable Laws, as well as a mutually agreed senior executive of each Party to whom matters that cannot be resolved by the Joint Steering Committee will be escalated. Any matters that arise
within the Joint Steering Committee and cannot be resolved within five (5) Business Days after referral to the Joint Steering Committee of such issue may be referred to the designated senior executives of each Party to resolve. 

(c) As soon as practicable following the appointment of the Joint Steering Committee through the Principal Closing, the Joint Steering

be consistent with the Transition Services Agreement Term Sheet, (ii) develop the migration plan, pursuant to which the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to address (A) the separation and migration of material IT Systems and
relevant data and (B) the preparation and review of communications to customers, vendors, suppliers and Business Employees to the extent such communications are related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) discuss
in good faith all material technical and operational matters reasonably brought to the attention of the Joint Steering Committee by representatives of the Parties. The Parties shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to cooperate to provide to
the Joint Steering Committee drafts of a proposed migration plan within sixty (60) days following the Principal Closing Date.

furnish any nonpublic information relating to the Businesses, the Transferred Entities or the Transferred Assets or afford access to the properties, assets, books or records of the Businesses, the Transferred Entities or the Transferred Assets to or
otherwise cooperate in any way with, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage any effort by any third Person that is seeking to make, or has made, an Acquisition Proposal or a modification of a previously received Acquisition
Proposal (other than Buyer and its Affiliates and its and their officers, directors, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants or consultants in their capacities as such) or (c) enter into any Contract with respect to an Acquisition
Proposal. It is understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement will prohibit or impede any such activities by Sapphire (or its Affiliates) with respect to any Retained Business.

best efforts, at or prior to the Principal Closing, to cause Nordic Försäkring & Riskhantering AB to establish branches, on the basis of the freedom of establishment, in Denmark, The Netherlands and Spain to receive the relevant

At least twenty (20) days prior to filing any Tax Return required to be filed after the Principal Closing Date and on or before a Deferred Closing Date, Sellers shall submit a draft of such Tax Return to Buyer for Buyer’s review and

all administrative, appellate and other dispute resolutions stages, (ii) Buyer shall provide or forward

or its applicable Affiliate, in jointly making a timely and irrevocable election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code with respect to Buyer’s acquisition (or the acquisition by an Affiliate of Buyer) of the Equity Interests of Willis Re
Inc. and Willis Securities Inc. pursuant to this Agreement and, if permissible, similar elections under any applicable state and local Tax Laws (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Elections”). Sellers and Buyer
shall each deliver completed and executed copies of IRS Form 8023, required schedules thereto, and any similar state and foreign forms at the Closing in accordance with Section 2.09(a)(vii) and
Section 2.09(b)(vii). If any changes are required in these forms as a result of information which is first available after these forms are prepared, the parties will promptly make such changes. 

(b) Within thirty (30) days following the completion of the Purchase Price Allocation pursuant to Section 2.12,
Buyer shall deliver to Sapphire a schedule (the “Preliminary Allocation Schedule”) allocating the ADSP (as such term is defined in Reg. §1.338-4) among the assets of each of Willis Re
Inc. and Willis Securities Inc. (taking into account and in accordance with the Purchase Price Allocation among the Equity Interests pursuant to Section 2.12). The Preliminary Allocation Schedule shall be reasonable and
shall be prepared in accordance with Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. If, within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Preliminary Allocation Schedule, Sapphire has not notified Buyer in writing
of its disagreement with the Preliminary Allocation Schedule, the Preliminary Allocation Schedule shall be final and binding. If within such 30-day period Sapphire so notifies Buyer, Sapphire and Buyer shall
endeavor to resolve such disagreement in accordance with the procedures of Section 2.12. Once resolved, the Preliminary Allocation Schedule (as revised, if applicable) shall be final and binding. Each of Buyer and Sellers
agree that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall file any federal, state, local and foreign Tax Returns in a manner that is inconsistent with such Preliminary Allocation Schedule unless otherwise required pursuant to a final
“determination” as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code by a Tax Authority; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent the Parties from reasonably settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax
Authority based upon or arising out of the Preliminary Allocation Schedule, and the Parties shall not be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Tax Authority challenging such proposed deficiency or
adjustment by any Tax Authority. 

  
 124 

 (c) Sellers and Buyer intend for U.S. federal income tax purposes that any distribution of
stock or other assets by Willis Re Inc. or by Willis Securities Inc. pursuant to the Restructuring constitute one of a series of distributions in complete liquidation pursuant to Section 332 of the Code of Willis Re Inc. or Willis Securities
Inc., as applicable, in connection with the deemed liquidations of Willis Re Inc. and Willis Securities Inc. pursuant to the Section 338(h)(10) Elections. In order to effect such distributions, Sellers shall cause each of Willis Re Inc. and
Willis Securities Inc. to adopt a plan of complete liquidation under Section 332 of the Code. Such plan shall provide for liquidating distributions consisting of the distributions identified on Schedule 6.03(c),
followed by a deemed complete liquidation of Willis Re. Inc. or Willis Securities Inc., as applicable, pursuant to the Section 338(h)(10) Elections provided for in Section 6.03(a). 

(d) Buyer and Sellers agree that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will take any action that could cause the Section 338(h)(10)
Elections to be invalid or take any position contrary thereto unless required pursuant to a determination as defined in Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of any state, non-U.S. or local
Law. 
 (e) Buyer shall be permitted to make or cause to be made any election under Section 338(g) of the Code (or any analogous
provisions of state or local or U.S. Tax Law) for any Transferred Entity which is not a U.S. Transferred Entity (collectively, the “Non-U.S. Section 338 Elections”) with respect to the
transactions contemplated under this Agreement. Buyer shall provide reasonable advance written notice to Sellers prior to making any such election. Sellers shall cooperate in good faith with Buyer and its Affiliates (including, after the Relevant
Closing, the Transferred Entities) with any assistance reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with making such elections, and Buyer shall promptly reimburse Seller for any costs incurred by Seller in providing such cooperation. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, including for the avoidance of doubt notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.02 of this Agreement, Sapphire shall have no liability to Buyer or its Affiliates for
any Section 338(g) Taxes. 
 (f) In the event that the Parties identify in writing following the date hereof and prior to the Relevant
Closing Date a U.S. Transferred Entity for which a timely and irrevocable election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code with respect to Buyer’s acquisition (or the acquisition by an Affiliate of Buyer) of the Equity Interests of such
Transferred Entity is permitted by Law, Sections 6.03(a) – (d) shall apply mutatis mutandis with respect to such Transferred Entity. 

Section 6.04. Tax Refunds. Sellers shall be entitled to the amount of any refund or credit of Taxes of the Transferred
Entities and the Transferred Assets and the Businesses with respect to a Pre Closing Tax Period or any Seller Deferred Closing Taxes which refund or credit is actually obtained by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) after
the Principal Closing, net of any reasonable cost (including Taxes) to Buyer and its Affiliates attributable to the obtaining and receipt of such refund or credit, except to the extent such refund or credit arises as the result of a carryback of a
loss or other tax benefit from a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Principal Closing Date or was included as an asset in calculating Closing Date Net Working Capital or as an asset in calculating Closing Date Indebtedness. Buyer
shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Sellers any amount to which Sellers are entitled pursuant to the prior sentence within five (5) Business Days of the receipt or recognition of the applicable refund or credit by Buyer or its Subsidiaries
(including the Transferred Entities), to the extent such amounts were not

included as an asset in calculating Closing Date Net Working Capital or as an asset in calculating Closing Date Indebtedness. To the extent requested by Sellers, Buyer will reasonably cooperate
with Sellers in obtaining such refund or credit, including through the filing of amended Tax Returns for periods ending before or on the Principal Closing Date or refund claims. To the extent such refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or
required to be returned to the applicable Tax Authority, Sellers agree promptly to repay the amount of such refund or credit, together with any interest, penalties or other additional amounts imposed by such Tax Authority, to Buyer. In addition, if
following the end of the calendar year after the calendar year of the Principal Closing Date, any refunds or credits taken into account as an asset in the determination of the Pre-Closing Income Tax Amount
have not been obtained (whether received in cash, or by any available offset against, or reduction of, a Tax liability of any Transferred Entity, calculated on a “with and without” basis) by Buyer or its Affiliates (including, following
the Relevant Closing, the Transferred Entities) using reasonable efforts, Sellers shall pay to Buyer within five (5) Business Days of the written request of Buyer, the amount that has not been obtained (it being understood that any such amounts
subsequently obtained by Buyer or its Affiliates (including, following the Relevant Closing, the Transferred Entities) shall be payable to Sellers in accordance with this Section 6.04). 

Section 6.05. Post-Closing Actions. Without Sellers’ prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed) and subject to Section 6.03, Buyer shall not, and shall cause the Transferred Entities not to, (a) file any amended Tax Return of the Transferred Entities to the extent such Tax Return relates
to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Seller Deferred Closing Taxes, (b) extend or waive, or cause to be extended or waived, any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or
deficiency related to (i) a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (ii) a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Principal Closing Date and ending on or before the Deferred Closing Date (solely to
the extent relating to any Seller Deferred Closing Taxes), (c) make or change any Tax election or accounting method or practice with respect to, or that has retroactive effect to, (i) any Pre-Closing Tax
Period or (ii) any Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Principal Closing Date and ending on or before the Deferred Closing Date (solely to the extent relating to any Seller Deferred Closing Taxes), (d) make or initiate any
voluntary contact with a Tax Authority regarding (i) the Restructuring, (ii) a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (iii) a Tax period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Principal Closing Date and
ending on or before the Deferred Closing Date (solely to the extent relating to any Seller Deferred Closing Taxes), (e) take any action on the Relevant Closing Date after the Relevant Closing outside of the ordinary course of business, (f) make
any (i) Code Section 338(g) election for a U.S. Transferred Entity or (ii) entity classification election with respect to a Transferred Entity pursuant to the Treasury Regulations under Section 7701 of the Code with an effective
date earlier than two days after the Relevant Closing Date or (g) cause or permit UK Newco to cease to be a qualifying company (as that term is defined for the purposes of paragraph 19 of Schedule 7AC to the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992)
for a period of 30 days following the Relevant Closing Date with respect to UK Newco (where UK Newco was such a qualifying company on that Relevant Closing Date), in each case to the extent that doing so could reasonably be expected to adversely
affect Sellers or cause Sellers to be liable for any Taxes pursuant to this Agreement. 

  
 126 

 Section 6.06. FIRPTA. Each Seller that is a “United States
person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall provide to Buyer on or before the Relevant Closing a properly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. 

Section 6.07. Transfer Taxes and VAT.  

(a) All Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (excluding for the avoidance of doubt
Transfer Taxes in connection with the Restructuring, which will be borne exclusively by the Sellers) will be borne 50% by Buyer (or its relevant Affiliate or third party designee contemplated hereunder), on the one hand, and 50% by Sellers (or their
relevant Affiliate), on the other hand; and if a Party is required by applicable Law to pay any Transfer Taxes then such Party shall pay such Transfer Taxes and the other Party shall, subject to receipt of reasonably satisfactory evidence of payment
thereof, promptly reimburse the paying Party for their share of such Transfer Taxes, whether or not such Transfer Taxes were correctly or legally imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority. The parties hereto hereby agree to file in a timely
manner all necessary documents (including, but not limited to, all Tax Returns) with respect to all such amounts. Upon a request by either party, the other party shall provide the requesting party with evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
requesting party that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by the other party. Buyer and Sellers shall procure that each relevant Affiliate of Buyer, third party designee of Buyer and each relevant Affiliate of Sellers contemplated hereunder shall
comply with all obligations of that relevant Affiliate of Buyer, third party designee of Buyer and relevant Affiliate of Sellers, respectively, as set out under this Section 6.07(a). 

(b) The Purchase Price is exclusive of any applicable VAT. The applicable Seller (or its relevant Affiliate, as applicable) shall issue to
Buyer (or the applicable Affiliate of Buyer or third party designee contemplated hereunder, as the case may be) a VAT invoice in respect of any VAT required to be charged by the Seller (or its relevant Affiliate, as applicable), such VAT invoice to
be prepared in consultation with Buyer in compliance with applicable VAT Law and to be issued at the Relevant Closing. Neither Sellers nor any of their Affiliates shall waive any VAT exemption in relation to any of the transactions contemplated
under this Agreement. Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to minimize the magnitude of any irrecoverable VAT. 
 (c) [Reserved.]

 (d) The Parties shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law (in the determination of Buyer, acting reasonably and in good faith),
treat the sale and transfer of the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Agreement or any Local Transfer Agreement as a transfer of a totality of assets or going concern (“TOGC”) that is neither a supply of goods nor a supply of
services for VAT purposes. Buyer shall procure that each relevant Affiliate of Buyer and third party designee of Buyer contemplated hereunder takes such action as is required to be consistent with, and refrains from taking any action or making any
omission that is inconsistent with, that TOGC treatment. With respect to any enquiry, investigation, audit, challenge or other disagreement or dispute by a relevant Tax Authority into the availability of TOGC treatment
(“Enquiry”) (i) Buyer shall have 

  
 127 

 
control of the conduct of such Enquiry where the Buyer (or its Affiliate or third party designee contemplated hereunder, as the case may be) is the
VAT-taxpayer that is required to account to the relevant Taxing Authority for any VAT under the reverse charge procedure; and (ii) where the applicable Seller is the
VAT-taxpayer that is required to account to the relevant Taxing Authority for any VAT chargeable, the applicable Seller shall (A) give Buyer notice of any such Enquiry received by the Seller as soon as
reasonably practicable, (B) provide or forward all material written communications from the relevant Tax Authority to Buyer and offer Buyer an opportunity to comment on any such written materials in connection with such Enquiry prior to such
materials being furnished or submitted and shall consider any such comments in good faith, (C) offer Buyer an opportunity to participate in any phone conversations or meetings with the relevant Tax Authority, and (D) take such action as
the Buyer (at its sole expense) may reasonably direct Sapphire or the applicable Seller in writing to avoid, dispute, resist or compromise such Enquiry provided in each case that (I) Buyer shall first indemnify Sapphire and the
applicable Seller (to Sapphire’s reasonable satisfaction) against any and all Losses which Sapphire and the applicable Seller may suffer or incur as a result of taking such action, and (II) the actions which Buyer may direct the applicable
Seller to take do not include (x) allowing the Buyer to take on or take over the conduct of such Enquiry, (y) contesting the Enquiry before any court, tribunal or appellate body, and (z) any actions which Sapphire or the applicable
Seller reasonably considers would be likely to cause a material prejudice to the Tax affairs of Sapphire or the applicable Seller. If Buyer does not direct Sapphire or the applicable Seller within 15 calendar days of its receipt of notice of the
relevant Enquiry or of the relevant communication, phone conversation or meeting from or with the Tax Authority (as the case may be) or if Buyer fails to indemnify Sapphire and the applicable Seller in accordance with this
Section 6.07(d)(ii)(I), Sapphire and the applicable Seller may conduct, settle or compromise such Enquiry as they see fit (acting reasonably and in good faith) and without prejudice to any of their rights under this
Section 6.07. If the sale and transfer of the Transferred Assets pursuant to this Agreement was initially treated by the Parties as a TOGC but does not qualify for TOGC treatment, any and all VAT required to be charged,
together with all associated interest, penalties and surcharges, if any, assessed by the Tax Authority shall be borne 100% by Buyer, and if a Seller is required by applicable Law to pay such VAT, interest, penalties and surcharges, Buyer shall
promptly reimburse the Seller for such VAT, interest, penalties and surcharges. 
 (e) The Parties agree that the following principles shall
apply with respect to Section 6.07(b) and Section 6.07(d) and that the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to ensure that the economic results to both Parties are in accordance with these principles: (i) input
VAT and output VAT and VAT payments and VAT recoveries (whether by credit, repayment or otherwise) should be matched up such that neither Party bears the cost of any VAT that would be recoverable by that Party or by the other Party; and
(ii) the Parties shall cooperate to obtain the maximum VAT recoveries possible. 
 (f) Sapphire shall procure that any Transferred
Entity that is a member of a group for VAT purposes shall be removed from such VAT group if any person (other than a Transferred Entity) is also a member of such VAT group and no contractual or statutory liabilities of any Transferred Entity in
relation to any such group for VAT purposes shall be outstanding or occur after the Principal Closing Date. 

  
 128 

 (g) References to any person in this Section 6.07(b) –
Section 6.07(f) shall, at any time such person is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member or group
remitter of such VAT group at such time. 
 (h) In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this
Section 6.07 and Section 6.11 with respect to VAT, this Section 6.07 shall control. 

Section 6.08. UK Tax Election. If, within the two year period starting on the last day of the accounting period of Willis
Limited current at the Relevant Closing Date, HMRC determines that the SSE is not available for Willis Limited (or any other member of its group) in relation to the disposal of UK Newco, Sapphire (or the relevant member of its group) may at its
discretion request that UK Newco shall promptly make a joint election with an Affiliate of Sapphire pursuant to section 792 of the United Kingdom Corporation Tax Act 2009 (“CTA09”) to reallocate the whole or part of any income
deemed to arise on the deemed realization and reacquisition of any intangible assets of UK Newco falling to be taxed under Part 8 CTA09, in connection with the transfer of such intangible assets by Willis Limited to UK Newco pursuant to the
Restructuring such that such income is treated as arising to the relevant Affiliate of Sapphire rather than UK Newco (the “UK Tax Election”). The making of such a UK Tax Election does not prevent or restrict in any way Willis
Limited from legally challenging the HMRC determination and Buyer will cooperate in good faith to assist Willis Limited in any such challenge. 

Section 6.09. Tax Treatment. The Parties intend and agree to treat and report the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement (i) with respect to the Equity Interests, for all U.S. federal and applicable state, local and non-U.S. Income Tax purposes (including on all applicable Tax Returns), as a taxable acquisition
under Section 1001 of the Code and, except if Buyer or its applicable Affiliate has not, directly or indirectly, acquired Equity Interests of the applicable Transferred Entity which constitutes at least 80 percent of the total voting power
and value of the stock of such Transferred Entity (within the meaning of Section 1504(a)(2) of the Code, a qualified stock purchase under Section 338(d)(3) of the Code and any similar provision of state, local and non-U.S. Law from the Sellers by Buyer) and (ii) with respect to the Deferred Closings, as specified in the applicable Local Transfer Agreement, in each case except upon a contrary final
“determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code by an applicable Tax Authority or as otherwise required by applicable non-U.S. Tax Law.  
 Section 6.10. Tax Cooperation. Each of Sellers and their
Affiliates and Buyer, Affiliates of Buyer (including, after the Relevant Closing, the Transferred Entities) and Permitted Designees of Buyer contemplated hereunder shall (i) reasonably cooperate with each other in the preparation of Tax Returns
described under Section 6.01(b) and (c) and (ii) promptly furnish to the other party such information as such party may reasonably request in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns or any Tax
matters or other Tax proceedings with respect to Tax Matters relating to the Transferred Entities and the Transferred Assets and the Businesses or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including by providing access to relevant books and
records and making employees of Sellers and Buyer or the Transferred Entities reasonably available to provide additional information and explanation of any materials provided hereunder. Notwithstanding anything else contained herein to the contrary,
Buyer and Sellers each shall retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Transferred Entities and the Transferred Assets 

  
 129 

 
and the Businesses relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of the statute of limitations (taking into account any extensions thereof)
applicable to such taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax Authority. Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate (and cause their Affiliates to cooperate) in connection with all provisions under this
Agreement related to Tax matters. Sellers shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer pursuant to this Section 6.10 to furnish to Buyer all information as may reasonably be required by Buyer or the Transferred Entities to timely
file all Tax Returns of Transferred Entities for taxable periods ending on or before the Relevant Closing Date due after the Relevant Closing Date. 

Section 6.11. Termination of Tax Sharing Arrangements; Tax Degrouping Agreements. Any Tax Sharing Arrangement entered into
by Sellers or any Affiliate of Sellers, on the one hand, and the Transferred Entities or any Subsidiary, on the other hand, shall be terminated as to the Transferred Entities and each Subsidiary on or prior to the Relevant Closing, and after the
Relevant Closing neither the Transferred Entities nor any Subsidiary shall have any liability thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties will cooperate reasonably and in good faith to minimize any Tax inefficiencies that may be caused by
the allocation of Tax Return preparation and filing responsibility under this Agreement, including: 
 (a) if a Party reasonably determines
that a Transferred Entity will suffer adverse Tax consequences as a result of a Seller paying, or causing to paid, any Tax on behalf of such Transferred Entity under Section 6.01 without reimbursement by such Transferred
Entity, Buyer shall cause such Transferred Entity to either pay any such Tax directly to the applicable Tax Authority or to reimburse such Seller or the applicable Affiliate of Seller for such Tax, and, to the extent the amount of such directly paid
or reimbursed Tax was not taken into account in preparing the Final Closing Statement, Sapphire shall indemnify Buyer for such amount to the extent it is otherwise indemnifiable in accordance with Section 9.02(c); and 

(b) the Parties acknowledge that Willis Re S.A.S. belongs to the consolidated tax group set up by Willis / Willis France SAS pursuant to
Article 223 A et seq. of the French tax code (code général des impôts) shall enter into a tax degrouping agreement substantially in the form set out in Exhibit K with effect as from the Relevant Closing. Buyer (or its
advisers) shall be provided with such information and documentation relating to the tax degrouping agreement as Buyer (or its advisers) may reasonably request and Sapphire shall reflect all reasonable comments that Buyer (or its advisers) shall make
in respect of such information and documentation prior to the consummation of any transactions contemplated thereby. 
 ARTICLE VII

 EMPLOYEE MATTERS 
 Except
as otherwise provided herein or in any Local Transfer Agreement, the Parties agree to the provisions set forth in this Article VII: 

Section 7.01. Employees. 

(a) Buyer shall (or shall cause its Designated Employing Entity to) (i) continue the employment on and, subject to
Section 7.01(d), after each Relevant Closing Date of each Transferred Entity Employee (other than any Transferred Entity Employee who primarily provides 

  
 130 

 
services in the United States and is not “actively employed” by the applicable Transferred Entity by reason of long term disability immediately prior to the Relevant Closing Date (each,
a “Retained Employee”)) and (ii) in respect of each Automatic Transfer Employee, accept the transfer of each individual (who does not object to transfer) to Buyer or its Designated Employing Entity pursuant to the Transfer
Regulations, and (iii) on or prior to the Relevant Closing Date, when and as required by Law, make an offer of employment to each Offer Employee who is actively employed at the Businesses immediately prior to the Relevant Closing Date (each an
“Active Employee”) on the terms set forth in this Sections 7.01(a) and Section 7.02(a). No later than the Relevant Closing Date, the Sellers shall cause each Transferred Entity that employs any Retained
Employees to transfer the employment of all such Retained Employees to a Retained Entity. For this purpose, an Offer Employee shall be considered to not be “actively employed” only if he or she under notice of termination for any reason is
on long-term disability or absent from work and receiving payments under any permanent health insurance scheme. With respect to any Offer Employee who is not an Active Employee but for whom Sellers have an obligation to recall, rehire or otherwise
return to employment under a contractual obligation or Law (each an “Inactive Employee”) and each Retained Employee, Buyer shall or shall cause its Designated Employing Entity to offer employment to each such Inactive Employee or Retained
Employee effective on the first date such Inactive Employee or Retained Employee is eligible to return to work or otherwise becomes eligible for employment, reemployment, reinstatement or reactivation, provided that with respect to any such
U.S.-based Inactive Employee or Retained Employee, such Inactive Employee or Retained Employee is able to return to work within six (6) weeks following the Relevant Closing Date, but Buyer may in its sole discretion choose to make or cause its
Designated Employing Entity to make an employment offer to any Inactive Employee or any Retained Employee effective from or after the Relevant Closing Date and prior to such Inactive Employee’s return to work within six (6) weeks following
the Relevant Closing Date. Sapphire shall, and shall cause any Affiliate to, provide Buyer with an update on the anticipated return to work date for each Inactive Employee in regular intervals sufficient to allow Buyer to comply with its obligations
under this Section 7.01(a) and through the date that is six (6) weeks following the Relevant Closing Date. With respect to the UK Automatic Transfer Employees, the Parties (i) intend that such employees will
transfer from Sapphire UK ServiceCo to Buyer UK ServiceCo with immediate effect from the Principal Closing as a result of a service provision change under the TUPE Regulations; and (ii) shall cooperate to prepare or amend services agreements
for the provision of the services of the UK Automatic Transfer Employees from Sapphire UK ServiceCo to UK Newco with respect to the period prior to the Principal Closing (the “Sapphire Services Agreement”) and, separately, Buyer UK
Serviceco to UK Newco in the period following Principal Closing (the “Diamond Services Agreement”), to effect such transfer under the TUPE Regulations, Sapphire shall or shall cause Sapphire UK ServiceCo to provide Buyer with a reasonable
opportunity to review and comment on the relevant provisions in the Sapphire Services Agreement prior to its implementation, and Buyer shall or shall cause Buyer UK ServiceCo to provide Sapphire with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on
the relevant provisions in the Diamond Services Agreement prior to its implementation. With respect to Offer Employees located in India, Buyer shall (or cause its Designated Employing Entity to) make offers of employment that contractually honor
such Offer Employees’ continuous service with Sapphire or the applicable Retained Entity. With respect to Offer Employees located in the United Arab Emirates, the Parties shall and shall cause their Affiliates (or in the case of Buyer, its
Designated Employing Entity) to cooperate to enter into a tripartite agreement between each Offer Employee, Sapphire (or the applicable 

  
 131 

 
Retained Entity), and Buyer (or its Designated Employing Entity) which shall include the Offer Employee’s acceptance of new employment terms with Buyer (or its Designated Employing Entity)
to commence on the Principal Closing (such terms to be in accordance with Section 7.02(a)); and, in circumstances where an Offer Employee executes such tripartite agreement and becomes a Transferred Employee, Sapphire shall
transfer or shall cause the applicable Retained Entity to transfer any accrued end of service gratuity with respect to such Transferred Employee to Buyer or its Designated Employing Entity within ten (10) Business Days following the Principal
Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.01(a), such offers of employment may be made conditioned on the Relevant Closing and on the Offer Employee satisfying Buyer’s or its Designated
Employing Entity’s generally applicable background checks, drug screens, work authorization verification and similar requirements and other requirements to execute and deliver standard confidentiality, restrictive covenant and similar
agreements to the extent permitted by applicable Law. Offer Employees who accept such offer of employment in accordance with its terms and who actually commence active employment with Buyer or its Designated Employing Entity, Automatic Transfer
Employees (who do not object to transfer) and the Transferred Entity Employees are referred to herein as the “Transferred Employees” and Business Employees who are Transferred Employees are referred to herein as “Transferred Business
Employees”; provided, that an Inactive Employee shall not be considered a Transferred Business Employee until such Inactive Employee actually commences active employment with Buyer or its Designated Employing Entity in accordance with this
Section 7.01(a). 
 (b) The employment of each Transferred Employee shall be transferred to Buyer or its Designated
Employing Entity in a manner such that his or her employment shall be considered continuous and uninterrupted employment under Law unless prohibited by applicable Law. 

(c) Buyer shall or shall cause its Designated Employing Entity to provide any notices to the Transferred Employees that may be required under
any Law, with respect to events that occur on, from and after the Relevant Closing. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the
contrary, neither Buyer nor any of its Designated Employing Entities shall be obligated to continue to employ any Transferred Employee for any specific period of time following the Closing, subject to applicable Law. 

Section 7.02. Compensation and Benefits. 

(a) Buyer agrees that for a period of twelve (12) months after the Relevant Closing Date or such shorter period during which the
Transferred Employee remains employed by Buyer or any of its Designated Employing Entities (the “Relevant Period”), Buyer shall provide (and cause its Designated Employing Entities to provide) each Transferred Employee with (i) an
annual base salary or wage rate, as applicable, at least equal to the annual base salary or wage rate, as applicable, provided to such employees at least 30 days prior to the Relevant Closing and (ii) with short and long term incentive
compensation opportunities (including the opportunity to continue to earn any retention, sign on, or other one-off entitlements for which the relevant performance, retention, measurement, or repayment period
is still in progress and any existing contractual entitlements to the same, until payment is made or forfeited in accordance with its terms) (in the form of cash, equity, or equity-based awards) at least equal in value to the short term and long
term incentive compensation opportunities provided to such employees at least 30 days prior to the 

  
 132 

 
Relevant Closing, for each Identified Employee and, in each case, as included in the schedule referenced in the following sentence. No later than 30 Business Days following the date of this
Agreement (but in no event less than 30 days prior to the Relevant Closing Date), Sapphire shall provide Buyer with a schedule of the annual base salary or wage rate, as applicable, and the short and long term incentive compensation opportunities
(which for the avoidance of doubt includes any retention, sign on, or other one-off payments or entitlements which are in the process of being earned or unpaid for each Identified Employee based on
compensation opportunities for the 2021 performance year). In addition, Buyer shall provide (and cause its Designated Employing Entities to provide) during the Relevant Period, Transferred Employees (other than the Automatic Transfer Employees) with
benefits and perquisites (or cash payments or increases in annual base salary or incentive compensation opportunities in lieu of benefits or perquisites, including defined benefit pension plan accruals) that are, in the aggregate, substantially
comparable to the benefits and perquisites provided to such employees at least 30 days prior to the Relevant Closing; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall this Section 7.02(a) require that
any such employee be entitled to accrue benefits in a defined benefit pension plan following the Relevant Closing. In respect of Offer Employees (other than U.S. Transferred Employees) who become Transferred Employees, Buyer shall or shall cause its
Designated Employing Entities to provide benefits and perquisites, including cash payments or allowances, or paid time off, in lieu of benefits, that are, in the aggregate, substantially comparable to the benefits and perquisites provided to such
employees at least 30 days prior to the Relevant Closing. In respect of Automatic Transfer Employees, Buyer shall or cause its relevant Designated Employing Entity to, replicate terms and conditions, benefits and working conditions to the extent
required under the Transfer Regulations, save with respect to rights under any UK DB Plan (as defined in Section 7.02(b) below). Seller shall cause any Retained Entity that is a party to a Severance Arrangement to transfer
such agreement to a Transferred Entity, Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity, as directed by Buyer, to the extent that a Transferred Employee is party to such an agreement. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Buyer and the
Designated Employing Entities (including the Transferred Entities) shall be permitted to make reasonable reductions to the compensation and benefits of Transferred Employees in response to, relating to, or to take into account any outbreak and
ongoing effects of contagious disease, epidemic or pandemic (including COVID-19) to the extent such reductions apply to similarly situated employees of the Buyer and its Subsidiaries. 

(b) Each Transferred Business Employee (other than any Transferred Employee who primarily provides services in the United States (a
“U.S. Transferred Employee”)) who is a participant in an Employee Plan that is a defined benefit pension plan (the “Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan”) shall cease to participate in the
Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan as of the Relevant Closing. With respect to Non-U.S. Seller DB Plans other than defined benefit pension plans in which Business Employees
employed in the United Kingdom participate (such plans, “UK DB Plans”), Sapphire shall and shall cause each other Seller or Affiliate to retain all of the assets of the Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan
and retain the Liabilities for (i) all benefits payable under the Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan with respect to any individual who retired or otherwise terminated employment on or prior to the Relevant Closing
Date, (ii) the accrued benefit of each Business Employee through the Relevant Closing Date, and (iii) any benefits or right to receive such benefits of the Business Employees that do not relate to old age, invalidity or survivor benefits
that transfer to or are otherwise exercisable against Buyer or any of its Designated Employing Entities by operation of law pursuant to the Transfer Regulations, and any Liability with respect to such benefits or right to receive such

  
 133 

 
benefits shall be an Excluded Liability. Each U.S. Transferred Employee who is a participant in a defined benefit pension plan or any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or subject to the minimum
funding requirements of Section 302 of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code, in each case, sponsored by Seller, an Affiliate, or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates (the “U.S. Seller DB Plan”), shall cease to participate
in the U.S. Seller DB Plan as of the Relevant Closing. Sapphire shall and shall cause each other Seller or Affiliate to retain all of the assets and Liabilities of the U.S. Seller DB Plan, including the Liabilities for all benefits payable under the
U.S. Seller DB Plan. For purposes of this Section 7.02(b) the accrued benefit means the monthly normal retirement age benefit accrued under each Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan up to and
through the Relevant Closing Date based upon each Transferred Business Employee’s credited service under the Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan through the Relevant Closing Date, exclusive of the subsidized value of
any early retirement benefit, early retirement supplements, retiree benefit increases, or any other benefit, supplement or subsidy under the Non-U.S. Seller DB Plan that such employee would have earned in
addition thereto had he or she continued employment with Sellers or the Retained Entities, as applicable. Subject to Section 7.02(g), with respect to UK DB Plans, Sapphire shall and shall cause each other Seller or
Affiliate to retain all of the assets and Liabilities of the UK DB Plans, and be responsible and liable for any benefits or right to receive such benefits of the Business Employees that do not relate to old age, or invalidity or survivor benefits
that transfer to or are otherwise exercisable against Buyer or any of its Designated Employing Entities by operation of law pursuant to the Transfer Regulations, and any Liability with respect to such benefits or right to receive such benefits or
otherwise that arises from or in connection with a UK DB Plan shall be an Excluded Liability. 
 (c) Buyer shall grant (or cause the
Designated Employing Entities to grant) each Transferred Employee credit for years of prior service with Sellers or any of their Affiliates or their respective predecessors for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, level of benefits and
benefit accrual (as applicable) under any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by Buyer or any of the Designated Employing Entities (other than for purposes of determining benefit accruals under a defined benefit pension plan that is not an
Assumed Employee Plan or otherwise as required by applicable Law for purposes of a defined benefit pension plan); provided, however, that such credit shall not result in a duplication of benefits. Buyer and Sapphire agree to cooperate and exchange
such information as is necessary to avoid any such duplication of benefits. 
 (d) At the Relevant Closing, each U.S. Transferred Employee
shall cease participation in the Employee Plans that provide health and welfare benefits (each, a “Seller Welfare Plan”) and commence participation in the health and welfare benefit plans maintained, administered or contributed to
by Buyer and the Designated Employing Entities (including the Transferred Entities); provided, however, that upon Buyer’s written request at least 30 days prior to the date of the Relevant Closing, Sellers shall, and shall cause their
Affiliates to, permit U.S. Transferred Employees to continue to participate in the Seller Welfare Plans for a period ending on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021, if the Relevant Closing occurs prior to December 1, 2021, or
(ii) as soon as reasonably practicable in which Buyer is able to transfer U.S. Transferred Employees on to welfare plans of Buyer or an applicable Designated Employee Entity, but no later than three (3) months following the date of the
Relevant Closing pursuant to terms as set forth in the Transition Services Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall permit Buyer to transfer U.S. Transferred Employees on to welfare plans of Buyer or applicable Designated Employing Entity
prior to the three month anniversary of the Relevant Closing in Buyer’s sole discretion upon 

  
 134 

 
at least 30 days’ prior written notice to Sellers) (such period of coverage, the “Post-Closing Welfare Plan Period”). The Retained Entities shall be responsible for
claims incurred under a Seller Welfare Plan for U.S. Transferred Employees and their beneficiaries and dependents at or prior to the Relevant Closing and during any Post-Closing Welfare Plan Period, subject to reimbursement in accordance with the
Transition Services Agreement. All claims incurred under a Seller Welfare Plan for U.S. Transferred Employees after the Relevant Closing and after any Post-Closing Welfare Plan Period shall be the responsibility of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. For
purposes of this Section 7.02(d), claims shall be deemed to be incurred in accordance with the terms of the Seller Welfare Plan. 

(e) To the extent applicable, for any U.S. Transferred Employees, Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to (and shall cause the applicable
Designated Employing Entities to use reasonable best efforts to), (i) waive all limitations as to pre-existing conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements
applicable to the U.S. Transferred Employees under any health and welfare plans in which such U.S. Transferred Employees are eligible to participate after the Relevant Closing to the extent that such limitations were waived under the applicable
Seller Welfare Plan and (ii) provide each U.S. Transferred Employee with credit for deductibles paid prior to the Relevant Closing in satisfying any applicable deductible requirements under at least one medical plan option and dental plan
option, but only to the extent that Sapphire or the applicable Seller provides evidence reasonably acceptable to Buyer of the amount of such out-of-pocket payments, and
only to the extent that Buyer or its Designated Employing Entity shall be eligible to credit such expenses against any other lifetime or yearly maximums. 

(f) In relation to any Automatic Transfer Employee who has any benefit entitlements or the right (whether contingent or otherwise) to receive
any benefits under any UK DB Plan that do not relate to old age, or invalidity or survivor benefits (“Beckmann Benefits”), Buyer shall not (and shall procure that any Designated Employing Entity shall not) take any action which
would induce or promote the assertion of any claim for Beckmann Benefits by any Automatic Transfer Employee (which for these purposes, shall include notifying or otherwise making an Automatic Transfer Employee aware of the existence or availability,
whether contingent or otherwise, of any Beckmann Benefits). If an Automatic Transfer Employee seeks payment of any Beckmann Benefits in circumstances where the granting or payment of Beckmann Benefits would require the consent of Buyer or any
Designated Employing Entity, Buyer shall not (and will procure any Designated Employing Entity shall not) grant such consent without having first notified Sapphire and given Sapphire a reasonable opportunity to undertake an actuarial calculation of
the cost of providing any relevant Beckmann Benefits to any applicable Automatic Transfer Employee. 
 (g) Buyer shall and shall cause each
Designated Employing Entity to adopt and maintain during the Relevant Period severance plans, which shall provide Severance in an amount equal to and upon the same terms and conditions as applicable to such Transferred Employees as under the

payment-in-lieu-of-notice, and/or payment with respect to accrued but untaken annual
leave, under the Severance Arrangements or as required under the applicable employment contract or applicable Laws, paid by the Retained Entities (and appropriately evidenced to Buyer) to (1) each Automatic Transfer Employee who objects to
their transfer to Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity pursuant to the Transfer Regulations for the principal reason that Buyer or the applicable 

  
 135 

 
Designated Employing Entity has failed to comply with the Section 7.02(a) with respect to such Automatic Transfer Employee; and (2) each Offer Employee who
(i) is not offered employment by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity within ten 10 Business Days of the Closing Date; or (ii) is offered employment by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity, but not in accordance with the requirements
of Section 7.01(a); and in either case such Automatic Transfer Employee or Offer Employee does not become employed by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity and resigns or is lawfully terminated by Seller (or its
Subsidiaries) within 14 days of the Closing Date or such longer period as required by applicable Law, and Sapphire shall (or shall cause the applicable Seller or Retained Entity to) pay all other amounts due to such Automatic Transfer Employee or
Offer Employee on termination. Sapphire shall or shall cause the applicable Seller or Retained Entity to pay all amounts due, including any Severance payable, with respect to any Offer Employee to whom Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity makes an
offer in accordance with the requirements of Section 7.01(a) where such Offer Employee does not become employed by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity, and any such amounts due shall be an Excluded Liability. 

Section 7.03. Vacation and Other Paid Time Off. Buyer shall and shall cause the Designated Employing Entities to assume as
Assumed Liabilities any accrued but unpaid or unused vacation or other paid-time off (including accrued holiday entitlements, sick/personal leave, long service leave and rostered day off leave entitlements) (“PTO”) for each
Transferred Business Employee to the extent such PTO is reflected in the Final Closing Statement, unless otherwise prohibited by Law. Sellers shall be responsible for all PTO for (i) each Business Employee that is not a Transferred Employee,
and (ii) each Transferred Business Employee whose PTO cannot be assumed by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity under applicable Law. 

Section 7.04. Wages and Other Compensation. Except as otherwise prohibited by Law, to the extent reflected in the Final
Closing Statement, Buyer shall assume as Assumed Liabilities and pay or cause a Designated Employing Entity to pay to all Transferred Business Employees all wages, salaries, short-term incentives and bonuses, commissions or other compensation earned
or accrued prior to and through the Relevant Closing. Sellers shall retain all Liabilities to pay all Business Employees all wages, salaries, commissions and other compensation earned or accrued through the Relevant Closing that are not otherwise
assumed by Buyer. The transfer and allocation of payroll services regarding Transferred Employees shall be provided for in the Transition Services Agreement. 

Section 7.05. Employee Claims. Buyer shall assume as Assumed Liabilities and be responsible for and shall retain all
Liabilities with respect to any claims or causes of action based upon, relating to or arising from the employment of the Transferred Business Employees prior to the Relevant Closing, except to the extent such claims or causes of action are covered
by a Retained Entity’s workers’ compensation insurance or arise from or are connected with a UK DB Plan or U.S. Seller DB Plan. 

Section 7.06. Employee Communications. Sapphire and Buyer shall cooperate in communications with Business Employees and
Transferred Entity Employees with respect to employee benefit plans maintained by Sellers or Buyer and with respect to other matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided that (a) Buyer
shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to review, comment on, and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) all material communications 

  
 136 

 
related to or addressing the Assumed Employee Plans (including any communications relating to the impact of the Transaction on the Assumed Employee Plans), other than such communications related
to employee benefit plans maintained by Sellers for the benefit of Sellers’ employees generally (including the Assumed Employee Plans) and that do not relate to the Transaction, (b) Buyer shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to
review, comment on, and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) all communications related to or addressing the benefit plans, programs, agreements or arrangements maintained by Buyer or any Designated
Employing Entity (excluding the Assumed Employee Plans) and (c) Buyer and the Designated Employing Entities shall not have direct contact with the Identified Employees without Seller’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed) and Seller shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to review, comment on, and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) all material communications made by Buyer or a
Designated Employing Entity to the Identified Employees prior to their Relevant Closing Date. 
 Section 7.07. U.S. 401(k)
Plan. Buyer shall, or shall cause a Designated Employing Entity to, have in effect a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan as of the end of the Post-Closing Welfare Plan Period that includes a
qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code in which each U.S. Transferred Employee shall be eligible to participate after the completion of the Post-Closing Welfare Period (the “Buyer 401(k)
Plan”). Buyer shall, or shall cause a Designated Employing Entity to, permit each U.S. Transferred Employee to effect a direct rollover (as described in Section 401(a)(31) of the Code and including the
in-kind rollover of notes evidencing loans, subject to Sellers reasonable cooperation in effectuating the same) of such U.S. Transferred Employee’s balance (excluding
after-tax employee contributions) under the Seller Employee Plan that is a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan (the “Sellers 401(k) Plan”) to
the Buyer 401(k) Plan at any time after the end of the Post-Closing Welfare Period if such direct rollover is elected in accordance with Law (and in accordance with the terms of the Sellers 401(k) Plan and the Buyer 401(k) Plan and any related
administrative procedures) by such U.S. Transferred Employee. Sellers, Buyer and their respective Affiliates and, in the case of Buyer, any other Designated Employing Entity, as applicable, shall cooperate to take any and all commercially reasonable
actions needed to permit each U.S. Transferred Employee with an outstanding loan balance under the Sellers 401(k) Plan as of the Closing to continue to make scheduled loan payments to the Sellers 401(k) Plan after the Closing, pending the
distribution and in-kind rollover of the notes evidencing such loans, if timely elected, from the Sellers 401(k) Plan to the Buyer 401(k) Plan so as to prevent, to the extent reasonably possible, a deemed
distribution or loan offset with respect to such outstanding loans; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.07 shall impose on Buyer any obligation to transmit loan payments to the Seller 401(k) Plan through payroll withholding or
otherwise. 
 Section 7.08. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Without limiting the generality of Section 11.05,
nothing in this Article VII, express or implied, is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations or Liabilities under this Agreement upon any Person (including any Transferred Employees or other current or former Business
Employees) other than the Parties and their respective successors and assigns to continued employment or any severance or other benefits from Sellers, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates, or, in the case of Buyer, any other Designated
Employing Entity. Nothing contained in this Article VII shall be construed as an amendment to or establishment of any Employee Plan (including any Assumed Employee Plan) 

  
 137 

 
or any other employee benefit plan, program, practice, agreement or arrangement of Sellers, Buyer, the Transferred Entities or any of their respective Affiliates or, in the case of Buyer, any
other Designated Employing Entity, or obligate Buyer or any Designated Employing Entity (including, following the Relevant Closing, the Transferred Entities) to maintain any particular benefit plan program, policy, agreement or arrangement. Subject
to Law, unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, including this Article VII, no provision of this Agreement shall constitute a limitation on rights to amend, modify or terminate, either before or after Closing, any such
Employee Plan (including any Assumed Employee Plan). 
 Section 7.09. Transaction Employee Obligations. 

(a) Buyer shall and shall cause the Designated Employing Entities and Sapphire shall and shall cause each Seller to comply with their
obligations to notify and consult with, obtain the authorization or approval of, or request the advice of, the relevant employees, employees’ representatives, staff associations, works councils, health and safety committees, trade unions, labor
boards and relevant Governmental Authorities in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Restructurings and the relevant Local Transfer Agreements, as the case may be, in accordance with applicable Laws
including the Transfer Regulations, and the applicable Bargaining Agreement (together the “Collective Labor Obligations”), and Sapphire shall provide Buyer with such information as Buyer may reasonably request in writing in order to
verify such compliance. 
 (b) Any liability arising in connection with; (i) a breach by Sapphire or its Affiliates of their Collective
Labor Obligations, save where such liability is directly caused by a breach by Buyer or any Designated Employing Entity of its obligations under the Transfer Regulations; and (ii) any employee or worker of Sapphire or its Affiliates other than
the Identified Employees (an “Undisclosed Employee”), however and whenever arising; shall be an Excluded Liability, save that if an Undisclosed Employee is deemed to become employed by Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity, Buyer
shall terminate (or will procure that any relevant Designated Employing Entity terminates) the employment of any relevant Undisclosed Employee within twenty (20) Business Days of Buyer or such Designated Employing Entity becoming aware of the
relevant Undisclosed Employee having been deemed to be an employee of Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity or such longer period required under applicable Laws, and if an Undisclosed Employee is not dismissed by Buyer or the relevant Designated
Employing Entity within the timescale set out in this Section 7.09(b), such Undisclosed Employee will be deemed and treated as being an Identified Employee. Any liability arising in connection with a breach by Buyer or a
Designated Employing Entity of its or their obligations under the Transfer Regulations with respect to the Identified Employees shall be an Assumed Liability, save where such liability is directly caused by a breach by Sapphire or its Affiliates of
its or their obligations under the Transfer Regulations. 
 Section 7.10. Cooperation. 

(a) Each of Buyer and Sapphire recognize it to be in the best interests of the Parties and their respective employees that the transactions in
this Article VII be effected in an orderly manner and agree to devote their reasonable best efforts and to cooperate fully in complying with the provisions of this Article VII. Sapphire and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective
Subsidiaries, and in the case of Buyer any Designated Employing Entity, to, reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with all Collective Labor Obligations. 

  
 138 

 (b) Sapphire shall and shall cause any Affiliate to: (i) comply with their obligations
to provide employee information to Buyer or a Designated Employing Entity under the Transfer Regulations prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) at Sapphire’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide within fifteen
(15) Business Days following such request to Buyer or the applicable Designated Employing Entity such information or documents as Buyer or such Designated Employing Entity may reasonably require at such time in respect of or for the purpose of
satisfying the Collective Labor Obligations applicable to Buyer and the Designated Employing Entities, to allow Buyer and/or the Designated Employing Entities to submit offers to Offer Employees to comply with
Section 7.02(a), or the integration of the Identified Employees into the Buyer’s organization, including the establishment of employee benefit plans and payroll or other employee-related operations at the applicable
Designated Employing Entity, (in each case on a limited basis to individuals within Buyer’s or the Designated Employing Entity’s HR and/or legal divisions to the extent that such information is considered by the Parties to be competitively
sensitive), including but not limited to information or documents relating to the Identified Employees’ terms of employment, pension and life assurance arrangements, health or welfare benefits, or any other matter concerning the Identified
Employees or any employees’ representatives, staff associations, works councils, health and safety committees, trade unions, or labor boards, or relating to a Bargaining Agreement or collective grievances. Buyer shall and shall cause any
Designated Employing Entity to provide at Buyer’s expense, as promptly as reasonably practicable following such request, any required information relating to Buyer or the Designated Employing Entity, or to any measures envisaged by Buyer or the
Designated Employing Entity or as otherwise reasonably requested by Sapphire in respect of or for the purpose of satisfying the Collective Labor Obligations applicable to Sapphire and its Affiliates (in each case on a limited basis to individuals
within Sapphire’s or its Affiliate’s HR and/or legal divisions to the extent that such information is considered by the Parties to be competitively sensitive). Where the Parties agree that it will assist the Parties to satisfy the
Collective Labor Obligations, relevant Buyer personnel shall at Buyer’s expense attend meetings with employees, employees’ representatives, staff associations, works councils, health and safety committees, trade unions, or labor boards,
upon request of Sellers, and Sapphire shall and shall cause any Seller to Retained Entity to grant access to such Buyer personnel to its or their premises for such purpose. 

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parties agrees to execute, deliver and file all documents and to take all
such actions as are deemed necessary or desirable in order to carry out and perform the Business purpose of this Article VII and to facilitate the transactions referred to in this Article VII. Sapphire shall and shall cause the
applicable Seller or Retained Entity to, with the reasonable cooperation of Buyer or the relevant Designated Employing Entity promptly transfer or otherwise assign all work or employment permits, visas or passes applicable to the Visa Employees to
Buyer or the applicable Designated Employing Entity and Sapphire shall and shall cause the applicable Seller or Retained Entity to be responsible in full for the cost of such transfers. In the event that employment permits, visas and/or passes
necessary for Buyer or the applicable Designated Employing Entity to employ the Visa Employees have not been lawfully transferred or assigned to Buyer or its applicable Designated Employing Entity by the Principal Closing Date, Sapphire shall and
shall cause any Seller or Retained Entity to: (i) retain the employment of such Visa Employees; and (ii) supply the services of such Visa Employees to Buyer or the applicable Designated Employing Entity under the Transition Services
Agreement and the transfer of such Visa Employees employment shall be deferred until such time as the relevant employment permits, visas and/or passes are in place. 

  
 139 

 Section 7.11. Rights Under Seller Restrictive Covenants.  

(a) For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Sapphire shall, and shall cause the applicable Seller or Retained Entity to, to
the extent permitted by applicable Law, execute and deliver to Buyer such documents or instruments as Buyer may reasonably request in order to effectively transfer and assign to Buyer, all rights of Sapphire (so far only as they Relate to the
Businesses) under any restrictive covenant and confidentiality agreement entered into between Sapphire (or as applicable any Seller or Retained Entity) and any third party (including but not limited to any restrictive covenants and confidentiality
obligations contained within an employment contract) including, without limitation, any Identified Employee, any current consultant or any former employee or consultant whose employment or service terminated within the one (1)-year period prior to
the Closing Date (collectively referred to as the “Seller Restrictive Covenants”). 
 (b) In the event that Sapphire or as
applicable any Seller or Retained Entity is unable, as reasonably determined by Buyer, to effectively assign any such Seller Restrictive Covenants or any rights of Sapphire or any Seller or Retained Entity thereunder, Sapphire shall and shall cause
any Seller or Retained Entity to, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, execute and deliver to Buyer such documents and instruments (including a power of attorney) as Buyer reasonably requests in order to allow Buyer or its applicable
Designated Employing Entity to enforce such Seller Restrictive Covenants on behalf of Sapphire or any Seller or Retained Entity to the extent that the period of restriction set forth therein has yet to expire. In the event Buyer determines that it
is unable to enforce such Seller Restrictive Covenants on behalf of Sapphire or any Seller or Retained Entity, Sapphire shall and shall cause any Seller or Retained Entity at Buyer’s expense to seek to enforce, retaining mutually agreed upon
counsel, all rights of Sapphire or as applicable Seller or Retained Entity, against the other party thereto arising out of the breach or likely breach (or alleged or anticipatory breach) of the foregoing Seller Restrictive Covenants by such other
party or otherwise. 
 Section 7.12. Employee List. The parties agree that the List will require updating between
the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date to take into account (a) new hires and employee terminations, and (b) any new hires into open roles, and (c) any additions or changes that may be required to operate the Business. Any
amendments or proposed amendments to the List by Sapphire (other than with respect to the removal of Identified Employees following termination in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or in accordance with
Section 5.01(l)) after the date of this Agreement shall be notified to Victoria Scholefield, Director of Employment Policy and Employee Relations or her designee at Buyer in writing and be subject to Buyer’s agreement,
such agreement to be notified in writing to Adrian Fahy (HR Director – Corporate Risk & Broking and Investment, Risk & Reinsurance) or his designee at Sapphire and not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Seller shall deliver to Buyer its proposed final List of Identified Employees no later than twenty (20) calendar days prior to the Relevant Closing Date. Buyer and the Seller shall use their reasonable best efforts to agree to a final List of
Identified Employees no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Relevant Closing Date. Sellers shall deliver to Buyer a list of the Reverse Carve-Out Employees no later than fifteen

 Section 7.13. Treatment of Sapphire Equity Awards. As of the
Relevant Closing, each outstanding Sapphire Equity Award that is unvested and held by a Transferred Employee shall be cancelled in accordance with its terms and the terms of the Sapphire Equity Plan (the Sapphire Equity Awards which are outstanding
as of the date hereof and forfeited by Transferred Employees as a result of the Relevant Closing, collectively, the “Cancelled Awards”). As soon as reasonably practicable following the Relevant Closing, Buyer shall grant (or cause its
Affiliate or the Designated Employing Entities to grant) a cash incentive award to each Transferred Employee who held a Cancelled Award as of immediately prior to the Closing with a value equal to the amount set forth next to such Transferred
Employee’s name on Schedule 7.13 (each, a “Buyer Cash Award”). Schedule 7.13 shall set forth (i) the methodology for calculating the value of each Buyer Cash Award for the Transferred Employees (including the level of
performance achievement for any Sapphire Equity Awards subject to performance-based vesting conditions) and (ii) all applicable vesting conditions, restrictions, and other similar terms and conditions applicable to the corresponding Cancelled
Award. Each Buyer Cash Award shall be subject to the same service-related vesting conditions as applied to the corresponding Cancelled Award immediately prior to the Relevant Closing; provided, that Buyer shall have the discretion to modify the
terms and vesting conditions in order to cause any Buyer Cash Awards to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code as reasonably determined by Buyer; provided further, that if such Transferred Employee’s employment
terminates prior to the vesting date either (i) by Buyer (or the Designated Employing Entity) without cause (as determined by Buyer) (including in connection with a redundancy, reduction in force or job elimination) or (ii) due to death or
disability (as determined by Buyer), the Buyer Cash Award shall immediately vest as of the date of such termination and shall be payable no later than sixty (60) days thereafter. In all cases, payment of the Buyer Cash Award shall be subject to
the Transferred Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in a form satisfactory to Buyer. Sapphire shall deliver a copy of Schedule 7.13 in respect of each Transferred
Employee to Buyer no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Relevant Closing of such Transferred Employee reflecting the value of the Cancelled Award as of immediately prior to the Relevant Closing.

 Section 7.15. Annual Promotion and Compensation Review. Where Sapphire’s
annual promotion and compensation review process for 2021-2022 (the “Annual Review Process”) will, or is reasonably considered by Buyer to be likely to, commence prior to the Principal Closing Date, then solely in respect of
Identified Employees with an annual base salary of more than $250,000, Sapphire shall provide Buyer with reasonable advance notice of the proposed salary and other material compensation increases, and promotions, of such Identified Employees, and
shall be subject to approval by Buyer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that any increases required by applicable Law or pursuant to an Employee Plan shall not be subject to approval by Buyer.

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”) receives written notice of the
commencement of any Action or the assertion of any claim by a third party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment for which indemnity may be sought under Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 (a
“Third Party Claim”), and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article IX, the Indemnified Party shall promptly (but no later than 30 days of receiving such notice) provide the other party from
whom indemnity may be sought under Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 (the “Indemnifying Party”) with written notice of such Third Party Claim, stating the nature, the basis, the amount
thereof (to the extent known or estimated, which amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third Party Claim), the method of computation thereof (to the extent known or estimated), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant
time constraints relating thereto, and, to the extent practicable and permitted by applicable Law, any other material details pertaining thereto, along with copies of the substantive documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for
indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from its indemnification obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially
prejudiced thereby through the forfeiture of substantial rights or defenses. The Indemnifying Party will have fifteen (15) days from receipt of any such notice of a Third Party Claim to give written notice to the Indemnified Party whether it is
assuming and controlling the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings thereof with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume or maintain control of the
defense of any Third Party Claim, and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, if (A) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action,
indictment, allegation or investigation, (B) the Third Party Claim seeks non-monetary, injunctive or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, or (C) the amount in
dispute is reasonably likely to be covered, in whole or primarily by, or reduce the retention under, the R&W Insurance Policy or is otherwise reasonably likely to exceed the maximum amount for which the Indemnifying Party can then be liable
pursuant to this Article IX. So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim in accordance herewith, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in (but not control) the defense, appeal and settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim; provided that if the

  
 146 

 
Indemnifying Party assumes control of such defense and (x) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel in writing that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have an actual
conflict with respect to such action, suit, proceeding or claim or (y) if there are material legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, the reasonable
fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party solely in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or claim shall be considered “Losses” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the
Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel per jurisdiction for all Indemnified Parties (it being understood that in the case of claims regarding jurisdictions other than the United States of America, the
Indemnified Party shall be permitted to engage both United States counsel and one counsel in each relevant foreign jurisdiction), (ii) the Indemnified Party will not admit any liability or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement agreement, compromise or discharge with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) the Indemnifying
Party will not admit to any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle, compromise or approve the entry of any judgment in respect of any Third Party Claim controlled by the Indemnifying Party to which
settlement, compromise or judgment the Indemnified Party consents in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except that no such consent shall be required if (1) such settlement, compromise or judgment
does not involve any injunctive or equitable relief or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party, (2) the Indemnifying Party shall (x) pay or cause to be paid all amounts in such
settlement, compromise or judgment and (y) not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any term, restriction or condition that would apply to or adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified
Party’s business, (3) the terms of such settlement or compromise, settlement or judgment provide for a complete and unqualified release of the claims that are the subject of such Third Party Claim in favor of the Indemnified Party and
(4) the insurer of the R&W Insurance Policy is not entitled to consent to any such settlement, compromise or judgment under the terms thereof, or such consent shall have been obtained. The parties will act in good faith in responding to,
defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with Third Party Claims. The parties will also reasonably cooperate in any such defense, appeal or settlement proceedings. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, appeal or
settlement proceedings with respect to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will not enter into any settlement or approve the entry of any judgment without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 
 (b) Other Claims. An Indemnified Party may give the Indemnifying Party written
notice of any matter (other than a Third Party Claim) that an Indemnified Party has determined has given rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, stating the amount of the Loss (to the extent known or estimated, which amount shall
not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim) and the method of computation thereof (to the extent known or estimated), and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is
claimed or arises. Each Indemnified Party shall provide such notice reasonably promptly after it becomes aware of any claim subject to indemnification hereunder. 

(c) Sources and Order of Recovery. 

  
 147 

 (i) In connection with any claim for indemnification pursuant to
Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(c), the Buyer Indemnitees (A) first, shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to seek recovery of indemnifiable Losses from the R&W Insurance
Policy to the extent of coverage available therefrom, and (B) second, to the extent not covered under the R&W Insurance Policy, recover such Losses directly from Sapphire; provided, however, that the Buyer Indemnitees may seek recovery
directly from Sapphire under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.02(a) or Section 9.02(c) for the full amount of any retention under the R&W Insurance Policy before seeking recovery under the
R&W Insurance Policy. 
 (ii) In connection with any claim for indemnification pursuant to
Section 9.02(g), the Buyer Indemnitees (A) first, shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to seek recovery of indemnifiable Losses from the Buyer E&O Policy to the extent of coverage available therefrom,
(B) second, to the extent not covered under the Buyer E&O Policy, shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to seek recovery of indemnifiable Losses from the R&W Insurance Policy to the extent of coverage available therefrom,
and (C) third, to the extent not covered under the Buyer E&O Policy and the R&W Insurance Policy, shall recover such Losses by offsetting the amount of such Losses, such offset not to exceed four hundred million Dollars ($400,000,000)
(the “Maximum Offset”), from any amounts payable to Sapphire pursuant to Section 2.17 (Earnout Matters) hereof, it being acknowledged and agreed that such right of setoff shall be the sole and exclusive
remedy of the Buyer Indemnitees with respect to claims pursuant to Section 9.02(g); provided, further, that, subject to Section 9.05(b) and Section 9.05(d), the Buyer Indemnitees may utilize such right of setoff
for the full amount of any retention under the Buyer E&O Policy or R&W Insurance Policy applicable to such Losses before seeking recovery thereunder (with, for the avoidance of doubt, any such setoff counting toward the Maximum Offset). For
purposes of this Section 9.04(c), it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that such reasonable best efforts shall not require the Buyer Indemnitees to institute litigation, arbitration, mediation or similar proceedings.

 Section 9.05. Limitations on Indemnification. 

(a) Sapphire shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitee for the Specified Indemnity Matters pursuant to
Section 9.02(f) or any Taxes pursuant to Section 9.02(c)(vi) with respect to Losses indemnifiable thereunder incurred by Buyer Indemnitees until the aggregate amount of such Losses, when taken
together with all other Losses subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.02(c)(vi) and Section 9.02(f) (or otherwise subject to coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy, irrespective of
any retention thereunder) exceeds the retention under the R&W Insurance Policy (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the “step-down” thereof (the “Retention”), after which Sapphire shall be obligated for fifty
percent (50%) of the Buyer Indemnitees’ Losses indemnifiable under Section 9.02(f) and Section 9.02(c)(vi) to the extent in excess of the Retention. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate amount required to be paid by Sapphire pursuant to Section 9.02(f) or Section 9.02(c)(vi) exceed an amount equal to (x) $162,500,000 less
(y) fifty percent (50%) of the total amount actually recovered by the Buyer Indemnitees pursuant to the R&W Insurance Policy. Any Losses required to be indemnified by Sapphire pursuant to Section 9.02(f) and
Section 9.02(c)(vi) shall be satisfied by setting off the amount of such indemnifiable Losses against the Earnout Payment, it being acknowledged and agreed that such right of setoff shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of
the Buyer Indemnitees with respect to claims pursuant to Section 9.02(f) and Section 9.02(c)(vi). 

  
 148 

 (b) Sapphire shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitee for Losses
indemnifiable pursuant to Section 9.02(g) until the aggregate amount of such Losses exceeds $50,000,000 (the “Section 9.02(g) Deductible”), after which Sapphire shall be obligated for the
Buyer Indemnitees’ Losses indemnifiable under Section 9.02(g) to the extent in excess of the Section 9.02(g) Deductible as set forth Section 9.04(c)(ii). 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Sellers shall not have any liability for any otherwise
indemnifiable Loss to the extent the Buyer Indemnitees have been actually recovered or been compensated in respect of such Loss through the adjustment to the Upfront Purchase Price under Section 2.10 or
Section 2.11 (it being acknowledged that the intent of this provision is to avoid “double counting”) or for Losses to the extent attributable to any breach by Buyer of any covenant or agreement pursuant to
Section 2.12 or Article VI and (ii) no Party shall be liable for any otherwise indemnifiable Losses in excess of the Upfront Purchase Price in the aggregate. 

(d) Sapphire shall not be required to indemnify any Buyer Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9.02(a),
Section 9.02(c), Section 9.02(f) or Section 9.02(g) with respect to Losses incurred by Buyer Indemnitees, and Buyer shall not be required to indemnify any Seller
Indemnitee pursuant to Section 9.03(c), unless such claim or series of related claims involve Losses in excess of $200,000. 

(e) Nothing in this Section 9.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall limit any claims of Fraud. 

Section 9.06. Calculation of Indemnity Payments. 

(a) The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article IX, shall be (i) net of any
amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party (including under insurance policies other than, for the avoidance of doubt, captive insurance policies) with respect to such Loss from any third party (net of any costs in recovering such amount,
including applicable deductibles in the case of insurance proceeds) and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit with respect to the Transferred Entities (including a benefit arising from a correlative adjustment) actually realized
by the applicable Indemnified Party or their Affiliates attributable to the incurrence, accrual or payment of such Loss in the form of an actual reduction in cash Taxes payable by such Indemnified Party or their Affiliates in the taxable period the
applicable Loss was accrued or in the following taxable year (calculated on a “with and without” basis and taking into account for this purpose any Taxes incurred by the Indemnified Party or their Affiliates which are attributable to any
indemnity payment related thereto). 
 (b) If an Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of Losses that are the
subject of indemnification hereunder after all or a portion of such Losses have been paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article IX (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes setoffs against the Earnout
Payment), then the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to 

  
 149 

 
the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (I) (A) the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Losses (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes setoffs against the
Earnout Payment) plus (B) the amount received by the Indemnified Party in respect thereof (after deducting the full amount of the expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in procuring such recovery) over (II) the full amount of
the indemnifiable Losses. If Buyer or any other Buyer Indemnitee recovers an amount under the RWI Policy (each, a “RWI Recovery Payment”) after such time as Sapphire has made any payment (which, for the avoidance of doubt includes setoffs
against the Earnout Payment) pursuant to Section 9.02(f) (each, a “Section 9.02(f) Indemnity Payment”), and, had such RWI Recovery Payment been received prior to such Section 9.02(f) Indemnity Payment, all or any portion of
any Section 9.02(f) Indemnity Payment would not have been required in accordance with the second sentence of Section 9.05(a), Buyer shall (or shall cause the applicable Buyer Indemnitee to) refund to Sapphire the excess amount of all
aggregate Section 9.02(f) Indemnity Payments (less any portion of the aggregate previously refunded pursuant to this Section 9.06(b)(ii)) made prior the applicable RWI Recovery Payment. 

(c) Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to mitigate any Loss indemnifiable hereunder
upon and after becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any such Loss to the extent required by applicable Law. All indemnifiable Losses under this Article IX shall be determined without duplication of
recovery for the same Losses under other provisions of this Agreement or any Transaction Document. 
 (d) Except in the case of the
representations and warranties contained in Section 3.07(b) and with respect to defined terms using the word “material,” for purposes of this Article IX, both the existence of any
inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, and the amount of any Losses resulting from such inaccuracy or breach, shall be determined without giving effect to any “material,”
“materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualifications contained in or otherwise applicable to such representation or warranty or any definition contained therein. 

Section 9.07. Tax Treatment of Indemnification. For all Tax purposes, the Parties agree to treat any indemnity payment
under this Agreement as an adjustment to the Purchase Price to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law. 
 ARTICLE X

 (b) by written notice from Sapphire to Buyer or from Buyer to Sapphire, if any Governmental Authority in respect of any
Competition Law, Foreign Investment Laws, or insurance regulatory clearances, filings or approvals contemplated by Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(c) or Section 8.01(d)
having competent jurisdiction has issued a final, non-appealable order, judgment, decree, ruling or injunction (other than a temporary restraining order) or taken

  
 150 

 
any other Action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided that, this right of termination shall not be

(c) by written notice from Buyer to Sapphire, if there is a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in

Sellers and Sapphire have not cured such breach by the earlier of thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice and the Outside Date or (ii) such breach is not capable of being cured; provided, further, that Buyer may not
terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (c) if it is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; 

(d) by written notice from Sapphire to Buyer, if there is a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in

8.01(d)), then the “Outside Date” shall automatically be extended until 11:59 pm (New York City time) on August 12, 2022 (the “First Extended Outside Date”); provided that, if on the First Extended
Outside Date all of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03 have been satisfied or waived, other than the conditions (I) with respect to actions the Parties are required to take at the Principal Closing
itself as provided herein and (II) set forth in Sections 8.01(a), 8.01(c) or 8.01(d) or Section 8.01(b) (but solely, in the case of Section 8.01(b) with respect to Laws or

September 12, 2022; provided, further, that this right of termination shall not be available to any Party (x) whose failure to comply with its obligations under this
Agreement has been the primary cause of, or has primarily resulted in, the failure of the conditions provided 

  
 151 

 
in Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 8.03, as applicable, to be satisfied before such date or (y) if the conditions set forth in Sections 8.01,

of an amendment, by Sapphire and Buyer, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. 
 (b) No
failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02, the rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law. 

Section 11.03. Expenses. Regardless of whether the transactions provided for in this Agreement are consummated,
except as otherwise provided herein, each Party shall pay its own expenses incident to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein. 

Section 11.04. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. 

(a) This Agreement, and all issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement and
the schedules hereto, and all claims and disputes arising hereunder or in connection herewith, whether purporting to sound in contract or tort, or at law or in equity, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of
Delaware, including its statutes of limitation, without giving effect to any choice of Law or conflict of Law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the Laws of any
jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. 
 (b) The Parties hereby agree and consent to, and shall cause their respective Affiliates
to, be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, first to any federal court, or second, to any state court, each located in New Castle
County, Delaware, and the Parties hereby waive the right to assert the lack of personal jurisdiction or improper venue in connection with any such suit, action or other proceeding. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereto (on
behalf of itself and its Affiliates) (1) waives the defense of inconvenient forum, (2) agrees not to commence any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement or any transactions contemplated hereby other than in any such
court and (3) agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or other proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit or judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE DEBT FINANCING OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND EACH OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO
ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.04(c). 

  
 154 

 Section 11.05. Assignment; Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party
Beneficiaries. This Agreement may not, without the prior written consent of the other Parties, be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise, and any attempted assignment shall be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, and permitted assigns. No provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies or Liabilities hereunder upon any Person other than the
Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the past, present and future directors, officers, employees, incorporators, members, partners, stockholders, Affiliates, agents,
attorneys, advisors and other Representatives of the Parties, and any Affiliate of any of the foregoing (and their successors, heirs and representatives), are intended third-party beneficiaries of, and may enforce,
Section 11.12. 
 Section 11.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be signed in
any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart
hereof signed by all of the other Parties. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Parties, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of
any other oral or written agreement or other communication). The exchange of a fully executed Agreement (in counterparts or otherwise) by electronic transmission in .PDF or other equivalent format or by facsimile shall be sufficient to bind the
Parties to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Section 11.07. Entire Agreement. This Agreement,
including the Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules attached thereto, the Confidentiality Agreement and the Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the matters covered hereby and supersedes all previous
written, oral or implied understandings among them with respect to such matters. 
 Section 11.08. Severability.
If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and
restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially
adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions
contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. 

  
 155 

 Section 11.09. Specific Performance. 

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that any breach of this Agreement would not be adequately compensated by monetary damages. The Parties agree that, Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall, in
the event of any breach or threatened breach by Sapphire, on the one hand, or Buyer, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, be entitled to equitable relief, including an injunction or
injunctions, to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement, by the other, as applicable, and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce
compliance with, the covenants and agreements of the other under this Agreement. Each Party hereby agrees not to raise any objections to the availability of the equitable remedy of specific performance when available pursuant to the terms of this
