(a) For each of the first sixteen (16) Quarterly Calculation Periods (the “Initial Sales Payment Period”), the Purchaser shall pay to Sellers an amount (each, an “Initial Sales Percentage Amount”) equal to nine percent (9%) of Sales of Non-SMM Products (the “Non-SMM Product Sales”) and seven percent (7%) of Sales of SMM Products (the “SMM Product Sales”) during such Quarterly Calculation Period; provided that, subject to Section 2.7(b) below, if the Initial Sales Percentage Amount is less than the Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount for any of the first twelve (12) Quarterly Calculation Periods, the Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount for that Quarterly Calculation Period.

(b) If during any of the first twelve (12) Quarterly Calculation Periods Sellers or their respective Affiliates conduct a Restricted Business in the United States, then thereafter the proviso in Section 2.7(a) shall not apply and the Purchaser shall not be required to pay any further Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amounts to Sellers notwithstanding that the Initial Sales Percentage Amount may be less than the Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount for any of the remaining Quarterly Calculation Periods in the first twelve (12) Quarterly Calculation Periods. If during any of the first twelve (12) Quarterly Calculation Periods Sellers or their respective Affiliates conduct a Restricted Business anywhere outside the United States, then the proviso in Section 2.7(a) shall continue to apply and the Purchaser shall be required to pay the applicable Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount to Sellers if the Initial Sales Percentage Amount is less than the Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount for any of the remaining Quarterly Calculation Periods in the first twelve (12) Quarterly Calculation Periods; provided, however, that for purposes hereof the Guaranteed Minimum Sales Percentage Amount shall be reduced by sixty percent (60%).

(c) For each Quarterly Calculation Period beginning with the seventeenth Quarterly Calculation Period and ending on the tenth anniversary of the Commercialization Payment Date (the “Sales Payment Period” and, together with the Initial Sales Payment Period, the “Percentage Payments Period”), the Purchaser shall pay to Sellers an amount (each, a “Sales Percentage Amount”) equal to six percent (6%) of Non-SMM Product Sales and five percent (5%) of SMM Product Sales during such Quarterly Calculation Period, subject to clause (d) below.

(d) If (i) Non-SMM Product Sales plus (ii) SMM Product Sales in a calendar year during the Sales Payment Period exceed Forty Million Dollars ($40,000,000) (the “Annual Sales Threshold”), then the Sales Percentage Amount relating to Non-SMM Product Sales payable by the Purchaser to ConvaTec in respect of such calendar year shall equal six percent (6%) of Non-SMM Product Sales during such calendar year up to the Annual Sales Threshold and shall equal seven percent (7%) of Non-SMM Product Sales during such calendar year in excess of the Annual Sales Threshold.

(e) The Purchaser shall prepare a “Percentage Payments Determination Report” or “PPDR” for the Sellers setting forth the calculation of the Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, for each Quarterly Calculation Period. Each PPDR shall conform substantially to the format set forth in Schedule 2.7(e) attached hereto, and be in accordance with the definition of “Sales” set forth in Section 1.1, and shall contain the information reasonably necessary to calculate the Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, for such Quarterly Calculation Period. To the extent a Quarterly Calculation Period straddles a calendar year end during the Sales Payment Period, the Purchaser shall ensure that the PPDR for such Quarterly Calculation Period contains sufficient detail for purposes of application of the provisions of clause (d) above. All moneys reported in the PPDR shall be in U.S. dollars, or in both a foreign currency and U.S. dollars. If the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receives payment for a Product in a currency other than U.S. dollars, then for purposes of converting the relevant Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, in respect thereof, such other currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars at the applicable rate of exchange of Citibank N.A., in New York, New York, on the last Business Day of the last month of the Quarterly Calculation Period in which the relevant sale occurred. Within forty-five (45) calendar days following the end of each Quarterly Calculation Period during the Percentage Payments Period, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Sellers the PPDR, along with payment, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by ConvaTec, of an amount equal to the Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, for such Quarterly Calculation Period, as set forth in the PPDR.

(f) Sellers may object in writing to a PPDR for a Quarterly Calculation Period only within twenty calendar days of delivery of the PPDR for the last Quarterly Calculation Period in each Annual Period. If ConvaTec objects in writing to any individual PPDR within such period, then the parties will act in good faith to resolve among themselves any objections to the PPDR. If they are unable to do so within thirty (30) calendar days after ConvaTec’s notice of objection, then either party may submit the dispute to a mutually agreed-upon independent accounting firm of recognized national standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of or otherwise providing material services to the Purchaser or the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates. If the Purchaser and ConvaTec are unable to jointly select such independent accounting firm within ten (10) days after the dispute is submitted to the accounting firm, the Purchaser, on the one hand, and ConvaTec, on the other hand, will each select an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing and such selected accounting firms will select a third independent accounting firm of recognized national standing, which firm is not the regular auditing firm of or otherwise providing material services to the Purchaser or the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates; provided, however, that if either the Purchaser, on the one hand, or ConvaTec, on the other hand, fail to select such independent accounting firm during this 10-day period, then the parties agree that the independent accounting firm selected by the other party will be the independent accounting firm selected by the parties for purposes of this Section 2.7 (such selected independent accounting firm,

whether pursuant to this sentence or the preceding sentence, the “Independent Accounting Firm”). The Purchaser and ConvaTec will instruct the Independent Accounting Firm to render its determination with respect to the items in dispute in a written report that specifies the conclusions of the Independent Accounting Firm as to each item in dispute and the resulting Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable. The Purchaser and ConvaTec will each use their Commercially Reasonable Efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render its determination within thirty (30) days after referral of the items to such firm or as soon thereafter as reasonably practicable. The Independent Accounting Firm’s determination of the Adjustment Amount as set forth in its report will be final and binding on the parties for purposes of this Section 2.7. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne entirely by the Purchaser if a PPDR is adjusted by greater than four percent (4%) in the Sellers’ favor. If the relevant PPDR is adjusted by four percent (4%) or less, the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne entirely by ConvaTec.

(g) The “Adjustment Amount,” with respect to any dispute, will be equal to (i) the Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, as determined in accordance with Section 2.7(f) for such Quarterly Calculation Period, minus (ii) the amount previously paid by the Purchaser to ConvaTec with respect to the Purchaser’s original Percentage Payments Determination Report for such Quarterly Calculation Period, plus (iii) interest at the Prime Rate plus 3% per annum, accruing on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year, beginning on the 30th day of the month following the Quarterly Calculation Period for which the Percentage Payments Determination Report was disputed by ConvaTec and ending on the date payment is required pursuant to Section 2.7(h).

(h) Any payment to Sellers of an Adjustment Amount will be effected by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by ConvaTec. Such payment will be made within five Business Days following the final determination of the relevant Initial Sales Percentage Amount or Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.7(f). Except as set forth in Section 2.14, no payment made pursuant to this Section 2.7 will be subject to deduction, withholding or offset for any reason.

(i) During the Percentage Payments Period, the Purchaser shall provide ConvaTec and its respective advisers, and the Independent Accounting Firm (in the event of any dispute pursuant to Section 2.7(f)) with reasonable access during normal business hours to books and records and cooperation and assistance as may be reasonably required to enable ConvaTec and the Independent Accounting Firm to calculate each Initial Sales Percentage Amount or Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, and confirm each Percentage Payments Determination Report.

(j) During the Percentage Payments Period, the Purchaser agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to promote and sell Products, in the United States, Europe and elsewhere, in a manner consistent with such efforts undertaken by Purchaser with respect to its products.

Section 2.8 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Sellers and the Purchaser agree that the sum of the Purchase Price plus the Assumed Liabilities (and subsequent adjustments, if any) will be allocated among the Purchased Assets as of the Closing Date in accordance with Schedule 2.8. Each of the Sellers and the Purchaser will (a) timely file all forms (including IRS Form 8594) and Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with such allocation, (b) be bound by such allocation for purposes of determining Taxes, (c) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, its Tax Returns on a basis consistent with such allocation and (d) take no position, or cause no position to be taken, inconsistent with such allocation on any applicable Tax Return, in any Proceeding before any Governmental Authority, in any report made for Tax, financial accounting or any other purposes, in any litigation, or otherwise. If the allocation set forth on Schedule 2.8 is disputed by any Governmental Authority, the party receiving notice of such

dispute will promptly notify the other party hereto concerning the existence and resolution of such dispute.

Section 2.9 Closing. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) will take place at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, at 10:00 a.m., local time, as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than the third Business Day immediately following the date on which the last of the conditions set forth in Article 6 has been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature can only be satisfied at the Closing), or at such other time and place as ConvaTec and the Purchaser may agree in writing. The date on which the Closing actually occurs is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.”

Section 2.10 Closing Deliveries.

(b) At the Closing, the Purchaser will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Sellers:

(iv) a certificate, dated as of the Closing Date, duly executed by the Purchaser confirming the satisfaction of the conditions specified in Sections 6.2(a) and 6.2(b); and

(v) such other instruments of assumption as ConvaTec reasonably requests for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 2.11 Default Interest. If any party that is required to pay any sum under this Agreement fails to pay such sum on the due date for payment (the “Defaulting Party”), it shall pay interest on such sum for the period from and including such due date through the date of actual payment (after as well as before any applicable Judgment), at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest under this Section 2.11 shall accrue on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year and shall be paid by the Defaulting Party on demand. Unpaid interest shall not compound. The accrual or receipt by the non-defaulting party of interest under this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver by the nondefaulting party of any right or remedy it may otherwise have under this Agreement.

Section 2.12 Removal of Purchased Assets. Promptly but in any event no later than sixty (60) calendar days following the Closing Date, the Purchaser will (a) prepare for relocation such Purchased Assets located at any facilities currently occupied by the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers (each such facility, a “Seller Facility”) and relocate such Purchased Assets from the relevant Seller Facility and (b) be responsible for all data transfer, delivery, transmission and reformatting expenses related to the acquisition of the Purchased Assets; provided that if Purchaser does not relocate the Purchased Assets within 60 calendar days after the Closing Date, Purchaser will following that date begin to pay reasonable fees for storing such Purchased Assets and after 120 calendar days after the Closing Date, Sellers may ship such Purchased Assets to Purchaser at Purchaser’s reasonable expense. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Sellers will, and will cause their Affiliates to, cooperate with the Purchaser and provide the Purchaser all assistance reasonably requested by the Purchaser in connection with the planning and implementation of the transfer of any Purchased Assets or any portion of any of them to such location as the Purchaser will designate. The Purchased Assets will be transported by or on behalf of the Purchaser, and until all of the Purchased Assets are removed from a Seller Facility, the Sellers will permit, and will cause their Affiliates to permit, the Purchaser and its authorized agents or representatives, upon prior notice, to have reasonable access to such Seller Facility during normal business hours to the extent necessary to disconnect, detach, remove, package and crate the Purchased Assets for transport. The Purchaser will be responsible for transporting and reinstalling the Purchased Assets at such location(s) as the Purchaser will determine. All risk of loss as to the Purchased Assets will be borne by, and will pass to, the Purchaser as of the Closing. After the Closing Date, Purchaser will be able to remove any Purchased Assets that are in the possession, custody or control of any Person other than Sellers from the location at which such Person has possession, custody or control of such Purchased Assets without the payment of any fees or expenses by Purchaser to such Person, other than any such fees and expenses that may arise from new arrangements entered into directly between Purchaser and such Persons.

Section 2.13 Consents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Agreement does not effect an assignment of any Included Contract if an attempted assignment thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or would be ineffective with respect to any party thereto. As to any such Included Contract, the Sellers and the Purchaser will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain as promptly as practicable after the Closing the consent of the other parties to the assignment of such Included Contract or, if required, novation thereof to the Purchaser or, alternatively, written confirmation from such parties reasonably satisfactory to the Sellers and the Purchaser that such consent is not required. In no event, however, will the Sellers or any of their Affiliates be obligated to pay any money to any Person or to offer or grant other financial or other accommodations to any Person in connection with obtaining any consent, waiver, confirmation, novation or approval with respect to any such Included Contract. If any consent, waiver, confirmation, novation or approval is not obtained with respect to any such Included Contract, then the Sellers and the Purchaser will cooperate to establish an agency type or other similar arrangement reasonably satisfactory to the Sellers and the Purchaser under which the Purchaser would obtain, to the extent practicable, all rights, and assume the corresponding Liabilities thereunder (including by means of subcontracting, sublicensing or subleasing arrangement) or under which the Sellers would enforce, for the

benefit of the Purchaser, with the Purchaser assuming and agreeing to pay the Sellers’ Liabilities and expenses, any and all rights of the Sellers against a third party to any such Included Contract. In such event (i) the Sellers will promptly pay to the Purchaser when received all moneys relating to the period on or after the Closing Date received by it under any Included Contract not transferred pursuant to this Section 2.13 and (ii) the Purchaser will promptly pay, perform or discharge when due any Liabilities arising thereunder after the Closing Date but not transferred to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.13. The failure by the Purchaser or the Sellers to obtain any required consent, waiver, confirmation, novation or approval with respect to any Included Contract will not relieve any party from its obligation to consummate at the Closing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 2.14 Set-off.

(a) If the Purchaser in good faith gives notice to ConvaTec of a claim under Section 8.1 prior to the date that any Commercialization Payment or Initial Sales Percentage Amount or the Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, would otherwise be due (each a “Payment Date”) then, subject to the Indemnity Cap, to the extent that such claim has been settled or otherwise determined but has not been paid by or on behalf of ConvaTec prior to any Payment Date, the Purchaser will be entitled to set off the amount equal to the payment required to be paid to the Purchaser pursuant to such settlement or determination against the relevant Commercialization Payment or Percentage Payment Amount.

(b) For the purposes of Section 2.14(a):

(i) a claim shall be regarded as “settled” where it is the subject of an agreement in writing between ConvaTec and the Purchaser (or their respective attorneys);

(ii) a claim will be regarded as “determined” if a court of competent jurisdiction has awarded judgment to the Purchaser in respect of the claim, even if the Sellers have a right of appeal with respect to such judgment.

(c) If Purchaser sets off a determined claim amount against a Commercialization Payment, Initial Sales Percentage Amount or Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, and Purchaser’s relevant determined claim is subsequently overturned on appeal by the judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, then Purchaser shall promptly, and in any event within five (5) Business Days after such appeal judgment, pay to ConvaTec the amount of the relevant Commercialization Payment, Initial Sales Percentage Amount or Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, that was withheld by Purchaser, even if Purchaser has a right of appeal with respect to such judgment, together with interest on such amount at the rate of 5% per annum, accruing on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year, beginning on the date of the relevant set-off and ending on the date payment is required pursuant to this Section 2.14( c).

In entering into this Agreement, the Purchaser acknowledges that it has relied solely upon the aforementioned investigation, review and analysis and not on any factual representations or opinions of any Seller or any Affiliates of any Seller or their representatives (except the representations and warranties set forth in Article 3). The Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) other than the representations and warranties set forth in Article 3, neither the Sellers nor any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or stockholders, make or have made any representation or warranty, express or implied, at law or in equity, as to any matter whatsoever relating to the Project, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or any other matter relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement including as to (i) merchantability or fitness for any particular use or purpose, (ii) the operation of the Project by the Purchaser after the Closing in any manner or (iii) the probable success or profitability of the Project after the Closing, and (b) other than the indemnification obligations of the Sellers set forth in Article 8, neither the Sellers nor any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives or stockholders, will have or will be subject to any Liability or indemnification obligation to the Purchaser or any other Person resulting from the distribution to the Purchaser or its Affiliates or representatives of, or the Purchaser’s use of, any information relating to the Project or any other matter relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any descriptive memoranda, summary business descriptions or any information, documents or material made available to the Purchaser or its Affiliates or representatives, whether orally or in writing, in certain “data rooms,” management presentations, functional “break-out” discussions, responses to questions submitted on behalf of the Purchaser or in any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

The Sellers and the Purchaser will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. The Sellers and the Purchaser will provide each other with copies of all correspondence, filings or communications between them or any of their representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.4 Sellers’ Names, Assets and Information.

(a) From and after the Closing, the Purchaser will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to remove or cause to be removed “ConvaTec” or other similar ▇▇▇▇ and any other trademark, design or logo previously or currently used by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates (the “Seller Marks”) from all assets of the Project; provided, however, that in no event will the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates use the Seller Marks after the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date.

(b) The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers are the owners of the Seller Marks and all goodwill attached thereto.

(c) In no event will the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates advertise or hold itself out as a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller after the Closing.

(d) If, at any time after the Closing, the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates possesses any information belonging to or concerning a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller that is not part of the Purchased Assets and does not relate to the Project (such information, the “Seller Information”), the Purchaser will promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such Seller Information to the Sellers (without retaining a copy thereof, except as required by applicable Law).

For the purposes of this Agreement, Purchaser Information includes written, graphical or machine-readable information that relates to trade secrets, product plans, software, vendor and customer information, business plans and data stored electronically.

Section 5.5 Nonsolicitation. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by ConvaTec, during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date (or, if this Agreement is terminated prior to the Closing, ending on the second anniversary of the date of termination), the Purchaser will not, directly or indirectly, for itself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors or representatives to, directly or indirectly, call upon any Person who is, at the time the Person is called upon, an employee of a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller, for the purpose or with the intent of soliciting such employee away from or out of the employ of a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller to be employed by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding this Section 5.5, nothing in this Agreement prohibits or otherwise restricts the Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from performing, permitting or otherwise being involved in: (a) general solicitation for employment (including in any newspaper or magazine, over the internet or by any search or employment agency) if not specifically directed towards any employee of the Sellers or (b) hiring of an individual where the initial contact with such individual regarding such hiring primarily arose from (x) any such general solicitation or (y) initial contact by such individual that was unsolicited by the Purchaser or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Purchaser.

Section 5.6 Noncompetition.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the five year anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), subject to Sections 5.6(b) and (c), the Sellers will not, and they will not cause or permit any of their Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, engage in the Restricted Business.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.6 will not prohibit (i) the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers, directly or through any Affiliate, from conducting any business activities conducted by them as of the date of this Agreement (other than the Project) and (ii) the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers, directly or through any Affiliates, from investing in or holding less than five percent of the outstanding voting stock or other ownership interests of any Person that engages in the Restricted Business.

(c) In addition to the foregoing, the Sellers agree that during the Restricted Period, the Sellers will not acquire (whether by acquisition of assets, merger or otherwise), and will not cause or permit any of their Affiliates to acquire, any interest in, or manage or operate any Person for whom revenues from the Restricted Business (i) represented an amount greater than the lesser of (A) 25% of such entity’s aggregate revenues during such entity’s last fiscal year or (B) US$25,000,000, or (ii) is reasonably projected to represent an amount greater than the lesser of (A) 25% of such entity’s aggregate revenues during such entity’s next fiscal year or (B) US$25,000,000 (a “Relevant Acquisition”); provided, however, that a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller may make a Relevant Acquisition if (x) its primary purpose in making such Relevant Acquisition is not to exploit for profit such Restricted Business, and (y) the relevant Seller or such Affiliate of such Seller uses its good faith, reasonable best efforts to dispose of the entity or portion thereof whose business constituted the Restricted Business within 12 months after the consummation of such Relevant Acquisition, irrespective of whether such disposition is

ultimately consummated; and provided further, however, that if the consideration payable by the relevant Seller or its applicable Affiliate(s) for the Relevant Acquisition exceeds US$250,000,000 (a “Large Acquisition”), then the relevant Seller or its applicable Affiliate(s) may make that Large Acquisition and thereafter continue with the Restricted Business entailed therein. If Sellers or their respective Affiliates conduct a Restricted Business, (i) Purchaser will have no obligation to make any payments of an Initial Sales Percentage Amount or Sales Percentage Amount, as applicable, with respect to Sales conducted on any continent where Sellers or their applicable Affiliates are engaging in the Restricted Business during any Quarterly Calculation Period, and (ii) Purchaser’s obligations under Section 2.7(j) will be terminated. If after such 12-month period, the disposition required to be sought in respect of a Relevant Acquisition (other than any Large Acquisition) has not been consummated, ConvaTec will promptly so notify the Purchaser, and the Purchaser may, within 60 days of receipt of such notice, notify ConvaTec that it requires ConvaTec to obtain an Independent Valuation of Restricted Business. Within 60 days of receipt of a copy of such Independent Valuation of Restricted Business, the Purchaser may notify ConvaTec that the Purchaser will, subject to obtaining customary regulatory approvals, purchase the Restricted Business that is the subject matter of the Independent Valuation of Restricted Business from ConvaTec and ConvaTec’s relevant Affiliates as soon as practicable thereafter for a purchase price payable in immediately available funds equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the amount of the Independent Valuation of Restricted Business (a “Purchase of a Restricted Business”). During the Restricted Period, the Sellers may make any acquisition (whether by acquisition of assets, merger or otherwise), and may cause or permit any of their Affiliates to make any acquisition of any Person for which the Restricted Business is below the levels specified in subclauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection (c) (a “Permitted Acquisition”). If ConvaTec or any of its Affiliates makes a Permitted Acquisition or a Large Acquisition, or in the case of a Relevant Acquisition (other than a Large Acquisition) until such time as a Purchase of a Restricted Business has occurred, ConvaTec, its relevant Affiliate(s) and the Person acquired may continue with the Restricted Business.

(d) If a Seller Sale is consummated by a Non-Financial Buyer, references to “Affiliates” in this Section 5.6 will be deemed to mean the Non-Financial Buyer consummating such Seller Sale and its Affiliates (for so long only as such Non-Financial Buyer and its Affiliates (other than Cidron Healthcare Limited and its direct and indirect subsidiaries) control, are controlled by or are under common control with the Sellers), and Purchaser’s remedies if this Section 5.6 is breached by such Non-Financial Buyer or its Affiliates will be limited to the provisions set forth in the second sentence of Section 5.6(c). For the avoidance of doubt, references to “Affiliates” in this Section 5.6 and Purchaser’s remedies upon a breach of this Section 5.6 by Sellers or their Affiliates will not be changed or amended if any Seller Sale is consummated by a buyer that is not a Non-Financial Buyer. “Seller Sale” means the direct or indirect sale or transfer of the outstanding equity interests of Sellers or all or substantially all of the assets of Sellers to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Seller during any Quarterly Calculation Period. “Non-Financial Buyer” means any Person, other than any Person that is a private equity or venture capital firm or entity or otherwise a financial buyer that will hold the equity interests or assets acquired in a Seller Sale as a separate portfolio company of such Person, that (i) consummates a Seller Sale and (ii) is not engaged in a Restricted Business at the time such Seller Sale is consummated.

(e) Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants and other agreements contained in this Section 5.6 are an essential part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, constitute a material inducement to Purchaser’s entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, are an essential part of Purchaser’s willingness to pay the Purchase Price and are necessary for Purchaser to realize the value of the Project. It is the intention of the parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time that is not permitted by Law, or is in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would then be valid or enforceable under Law, such provision shall be construed and

interpreted or reformed to provide for a restriction or covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions as shall be valid and enforceable under Law. In addition to the rights set forth above, each Seller acknowledges that the rights of Purchaser under this Section 5.6 are unique and recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Seller or their Affiliates, money damages may be inadequate and the non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at Law. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Seller agrees that Purchaser shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor at Law or in equity, to enforce its rights and each Seller’s obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief (without posting of bond or other security).

Section 5.7 Exclusivity. Until the Closing, neither the Sellers nor any Affiliate, representative or advisor of the Sellers will take any action to solicit, initiate, encourage or support any proposal or offer from, participate in any negotiations with, or furnish any non-public information to, any Person (other than the Purchaser), regarding any Acquisition. The Sellers will, and will cause their Affiliates, representatives and advisors to, promptly cease and cause to be terminated any such negotiations in progress as of the date of this Agreement. Until the Closing, if the Sellers or any of their Affiliates, representatives or advisors hereafter receives any Acquisition Proposal or any request for information reasonably likely to lead to an Acquisition Proposal, the Sellers will promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) notify the Purchaser thereof orally and in writing, including information as to the identity of the offeror or Person making such Acquisition Proposal or request and the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal or request.

Section 5.8 Insurance. Effective from and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser hereby agrees that it shall carry a product liability insurance policy (the “Insurance Policy”) covering the Project, the Amadeus Device and each other Product in an amount of not less than U.S.$2,000,000 until the tenth anniversary of the Commercialization Payment Date.

Section 5.9 Successors in Interest. The Purchaser agrees that (i) it shall not merge, consolidate, or otherwise combine with, or sell, convey, transfer or assign all or substantially all of the assets then used in connection with the Amadeus Device, any other Product or the Project to, any Person, or (ii) license or grant to any Person, or otherwise permit any Person to exercise, all or substantially all of the Purchaser’s right to market or sell any Product or the Project, unless in each case such Person (the “Successor”) assumes in writing (which shall be addressed to, and directly enforceable by, ConvaTec) prior to the consummation of any such transaction any and all of the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. Following any such assumption, the Purchaser and such other Person shall be and remain jointly and severally liable to the Sellers for the performance of the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The obligations of the Purchaser under this Section 5.9 shall continue in full force and effect for so long as any liability or obligation of the Purchaser under this Agreement, or any Ancillary Agreement remains outstanding or unperformed in any respect.

Section 5.10 Books and Records. The Purchaser will, and will cause its Affiliates to, following the Closing make available to the Sellers, the Affiliates of the Sellers and their respective representatives all information reasonably necessary for Sellers and their Affiliates to prepare their respective Tax returns and financial statements and to conduct any audits in connection therewith.

Section 5.11 Confidentiality.

(a) The parties agree to continue to abide by that certain Confidentiality Agreement between ConvaTec and the Purchaser dated June 30, 2011, as amended from time to time (the “Confidentiality

Agreement”), which will survive until the Closing, at which time the Confidentiality Agreement will terminate; provided, however, that if this Agreement is, for any reason, terminated prior to the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

(b) For a period of three years after the Closing, the Sellers will, and will cause their Affiliates to, and will instruct their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and advisors to, hold in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, and not use all non-public documents and information relating to the Project, including the Purchaser Information (the “Project Information”), except to the extent that such Project Information (i) can be shown to have been in the public domain through no fault of the Sellers or any of their Affiliates or (ii) was later lawfully acquired by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates from sources other than those related to its prior ownership of the Project. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will this Section 5.11(b) limit or otherwise restrict the right of a Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller to disclose such Project Information (w) to its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors to the extent reasonably required to facilitate the negotiation, execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, (x) to any Governmental Authority or arbitrator to the extent necessary in connection with any Proceeding relating to the enforcement of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, (y) in connection with its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, including the defense of any Third Party Claim, and (z) as permitted in accordance with Section 5.12. If any Governmental Authority or arbitrator requires disclosure of Project Information in connection with any Proceeding, the Sellers will, to the extent permitted by Law, give Purchaser prompt notice of such request so that the Purchaser may, at its sole expense, seek an appropriate protective order for the Project Information.

(c) For a period of three years after the Closing, Parent and the Purchaser will, and will cause their Affiliates to, and will instruct their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and advisors to, hold in confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law, and not use all non-public documents and Information included in the Seller Information, except to the extent that such Seller Information (i) can be shown to have been in the public domain through no fault of Purchaser, Parent or any of their Affiliates or (ii) was later lawfully acquired by Purchaser, Parent or any of their Affiliates from sources other than those related to its prior ownership of the Seller Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will this Section 5.11(c) limit or otherwise restrict the right of Purchaser, Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates to disclose such Seller Information (w) to its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors to the extent reasonably required to facilitate the negotiation, execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, (x) to any Governmental Authority or arbitrator to the extent necessary in connection with any Proceeding relating to the enforcement of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, (y) in connection with its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, including the defense of any Third Party Claim, and (z) as permitted in accordance with Section 5.12. If any Governmental Authority or arbitrator requires disclosure of Seller Information in connection with any Proceeding, Parent and the Purchaser will, to the extent permitted by Law, give Sellers prompt notice of such request so that the Sellers may, at their sole expense, seek an appropriate protective order for the Seller Information.

Section 5.12 Public Announcements. Each party agrees not to issue any press release or make any other public announcement relating to this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other party, except that each of ConvaTec and the Purchaser reserves the right, without the other party’s prior consent, to make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable securities Laws or securities listing standards (in which case the disclosing party agrees to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to advise the other party prior to making the disclosure).

Section 5.13 Further Actions. Subject to the other express provisions of this Agreement, upon the request of any party to this Agreement, the other parties will execute and deliver such other documents, instruments and agreements as the requesting party may reasonably require for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers will, at their expense, take all actions necessary to cause the patents included in the Purchased Intellectual Property and transferred pursuant to the Patent Assignment to be registered in the name of the applicable Seller promptly after the Closing so that such patents may be further assigned to Purchaser.

Section 5.14 Bulk Transfer Laws. The Purchaser hereby waives compliance by the Sellers with any applicable bulk sale or bulk transfer Laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 5.15 Transfer Taxes. Each of Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Sellers, on the other hand, will pay in a timely manner fifty percent of all applicable sales, use, transfer, conveyance, documentary, recording, notarial, value added, excise, registration, stamp, gross receipts and similar Taxes and fees (“Transfer Taxes”), arising out of or in connection with or attributable to the transactions effected pursuant to this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including expenses and fees relating to registering Purchased Intellectual Property in the name of the Purchaser or its designee, regardless of whether such Transfer Taxes, expenses and fees are imposed by Law on the Purchaser, the Purchased Assets or the Sellers or any Affiliate of the Sellers. Any Tax Returns that must be filed in connection with any Transfer Taxes will be prepared by the Sellers; provided, however, that the Sellers will deliver such Tax Returns for the Purchaser’s review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) at least ten Business Days prior to the applicable due date. Purchaser shall deliver, if applicable, any exemption documentation for any Transfer Taxes to Seller in a timely manner. The parties will cooperate with each other in the provision of any information or preparation of any documentation that may be necessary or useful for obtaining any available mitigation, reduction or exemption from any such Transfer Taxes.

Section 5.16 Data Room. Within ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date, the Sellers shall provide to the Purchaser an electronic copy of all information contained in the electronic data room (including using its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to provide, to the extent reasonably practicable, documents readable and usable by the program in which they were initially prepared rather than as a pdf or other format that restricts editing of the documents) maintained by the Sellers relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 5.17 Employees and Consultants.

(a) The Purchaser shall be provided access to, and the services of, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or, if ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ is no longer an employee or consultant of ConvaTec or any of its Affiliates, the individual who succeeds to the duties and responsibilities of ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇) for purposes of providing transition services related to the Project (i) for seven Business Days of his time, at no cost to the Purchaser, during the first month after the Closing Date; (ii) for up to seven Business Days of his time, for a fee of $1,000 per day, during the second month after the Closing Date; and (iii) for up to two Business Days per month of his time, for the next four months thereafter, for a fee of $1,000 per day. Within 30 days after the end of each month in respect of which fees are payable, ConvaTec will submit an invoice to the Purchaser for such services provided during the previous month. The Business Days allocable to the Purchaser as referenced in subclauses (i), (ii) and (iii) in the previous sentence shall include time spent travelling by ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with the provision of his services to the Purchaser. The Purchaser will also reimburse ConvaTec for all reasonable expenses incurred by ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or other applicable employee) in providing such services, including for any travel required to be done at the Purchaser’s request, subject to ConvaTec

providing receipts or other reasonable supporting evidence thereof and provided that such costs may not exceed $5,000 per month without the prior written consent of the Purchaser; provided, further, however, that it shall not constitute a breach of this Section 5.17(a) if ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (or other applicable employee’s) services are not provided to the Purchaser as a result of the Purchaser not approving travel expenses in accordance with the foregoing. The Purchaser agrees that, for any flight scheduled for a duration of eight hours or more, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or other applicable employee) shall be entitled to travel business class and that the expenses thereof are reasonable expenses for purposes hereof. Such expenses will be included in the monthly invoices referred to above. The Purchaser will pay all amounts due pursuant to this section 5.l7(a) within 30 days after receipt of each such invoice hereunder.

(b) If the Purchaser desires to retain ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ as an employee, independent contractor or consultant in connection with the Project, Sellers will waive confidentiality or other restrictions owed to Sellers and their Affiliates by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ to the extent necessary to enable ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇ to be able to perform the relevant services for the Purchaser in connection with the Project.

If the Closing occurs, and subject to the limitations expressly set forth in Sections 8.4 and 8.5, ConvaTec will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser and its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders and Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising or resulting from (a) any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 3 or any certificate relating thereto, (b) any breach of any covenant of the Sellers set forth in this Agreement, (c) any Excluded Liability and (d) the failure of Sellers to comply with bulk sale or bulk transfer Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 8.2 Indemnification by the Purchaser. If the Closing occurs, and subject to the limitations expressly set forth in Sections 8.4 and 8.5, the Purchaser will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sellers and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, stockholders and Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by the Seller Indemnified Parties arising or resulting from (a) any breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 4 or any certificate related thereto, (b) any breach of any covenant of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement and (c) any Assumed Liability.

Section 8.3 Claim Procedure.

(a) A party that seeks indemnity under this Article 8 (an “Indemnified Party”) will give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) whether the Losses sought arise from matters solely between the parties or from Third Party Claims described in Section 8.3(b). The Claim Notice must contain (i) a brief description and, if known, the estimated amount of any Losses incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Claim Notice to the extent of the facts then known by the Indemnified Party and (iii) a demand for payment of those Losses.

(b) If the Indemnified Party seeks indemnity under this Article 8 in response to a claim or Proceeding by another Person not a party to this Agreement (a “Third Party Claim”), then the Indemnified Party will give a Claim Notice to the Indemnifying Party promptly and in any event within thirty days after the Indemnified Party has received notice or otherwise learns of the assertion of such Third Party Claim and will include in the Claim Notice (i) a brief description of the facts constituting the basis for such Third Party Claim and the amount of the damages claimed by the other Person, in each case to the extent known to the Indemnified Party and (ii) the assertion of the claim or the notice of the commencement of any Proceeding relating to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in so notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the

Indemnifying Party of any Liability under this Agreement except to the extent such delay or deficiency actually prejudices the rights of the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto.

(c) In the event of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, assume at any time control of the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified party by giving to the Indemnified Party written notice of its intention to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party may participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim with its own counsel at its own expense.

(d) The Indemnifying Party will not agree to any settlement of, or consent to the entry of any Judgment (other than a Judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) arising from, any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party will not be required if the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or any Judgment and such settlement or Judgment includes a full, complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from further Liability and does not impose any injunctive relief or criminal penalties on the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will not agree to any settlement of, or the entry of any Judgment (other than a Judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) arising from, any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless the Indemnifying Party fails to defend the Indemnified Party pursuant to the terms of this Section 8.3.

Section 8.4 Survival. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing until the date that is thirty (30) months after the Closing Date, except that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4(a), 3.7, 3.14, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.5 will survive the Closing until the date that is 30 days after expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period. All covenants contained in this Agreement will survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations or for such shorter period explicitly specified therein, except that for such covenants that survive for such shorter period, breaches thereof will survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. All claims for indemnification under this Agreement must be asserted pursuant to a Claim Notice given prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 8.4; provided, however, that any representation, warranty or covenant that is the subject of a claim for indemnification which is asserted pursuant to a Claim Notice given after the Closing Date within the survival period specified in this Section 8.4 will survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of such claim.

Section 8.5 Limitations on Liability.

(a) Deductibles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (except that the following limitations will only apply to Losses arising under Sections 8.1(a) and 8.2(a) (other than Losses arising with respect to breaches of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4(a), 3.5(b), 3.7, 3.14, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6, with respect to which such limitations will not apply) and will accordingly not apply to Losses arising under Section 8.1(b), (c) and (d) and Section 8.2(b) and (c)):

(i) no indemnification payments will be made by or on behalf of ConvaTec under this Agreement until the aggregate amount of Losses for which ConvaTec would (but for this clause (i) be liable thereunder exceeds $100,000 (such amount being, the “Deductible”), and then only to the extent of such excess over the Deductible; and

(ii) no indemnification payments will be made by or on behalf of the Purchaser under this Agreement until the aggregate amount of Losses for which the Purchaser would (but for this

clause (ii)) be liable thereunder exceeds the Deductible, and then only to the extent of such excess over the Deductible.

(b) Caps. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (except that the following limitations will only apply to Losses arising under Sections 8.1(a) and 8.2(a) (other than Losses arising with respect to breaches of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4(a), 3.5(b), 3.5(e), 3.5(f), 3.5(g), 3.5(i), 3.7, 3.14, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.5 and 4.6, with respect to which such limitations will not apply) and will accordingly not apply to Losses arising under Section 8.1(b), (c) and (d) and Section 8.2(b) and (c)):

(i) the aggregate total amount in respect of which ConvaTec will be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement will not exceed $3,000,000; and

(ii) the aggregate total amount in respect of which the Purchaser will be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement will not exceed $3,000,000.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the aggregate total amount in respect of which ConvaTec will be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.1(a) (other than with respect to breaches of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4(a), 3.7 and 3.14, with respect to which such limitation will not apply) will not exceed $5,000,000.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the aggregate total amount in respect of which ConvaTec will be liable to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Sections 8.1(a), (b) and (d) of this Agreement, will not exceed an amount equal to the Purchase Price, as such Purchase Price may be increased by the payment of any amounts after the Closing Date.

(d) Tax Refunds, Insurance Proceeds and Other Payments. The amount of any and all Losses for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this Article 8 will be net of any Tax benefit actually received and utilized by an Indemnified Party arising from the deductibility of any such payment of such Liability (taking into account any Tax cost or reduction in such Tax benefits by reason of receipt of the indemnification payment) and any amounts of any insurance proceeds, indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements actually received by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses or any of the circumstances giving rise thereto. In connection therewith, if, at any time following payment in full by the Indemnifying Party of any amounts of Losses due under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds, indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements relating to the circumstances giving rise to such Losses, the Indemnified Party will promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party such proceeds, payments or reimbursements in an amount not to exceed the amount of the corresponding indemnification payment made by the Indemnifying Party. The Purchaser will use (and will cause its Affiliates to use) Commercially Reasonable Efforts to collect the proceeds of any available insurance which would have the effect of reducing any Losses (in which case the net proceeds thereof will reduce the Losses).

(e) Mitigation. The Indemnified Party will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mitigate any Losses with respect to which it may be entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, other than with respect to fraud (provided any such claim of fraud is not based on a standard of recklessness, willful ignorance, negligence or similar lesser standard of intent) the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser for money damages for any matter arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be pursuant to the indemnification obligations set forth in Article 8.

Except as provided in Section 8.6, any enumeration of a party’s rights and remedies in this Agreement is not intended to be exclusive, and a party’s rights and remedies are intended to be cumulative to the extent permitted by law and include any rights and remedies authorized in law or in equity.

Section 9.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and the documents and instruments referred to in this Agreement that are to be delivered at the Closing) constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or between the parties, or either of them, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Confidentiality Agreement will remain in effect in accordance with its terms as modified pursuant to Section 5.11.

Section 9.5 Assignment Successors and No Third Party Rights. This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no party may assign any rights under this Agreement, or delegate any performance of its obligations under this Agreement whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party (except that (i) Purchaser may assign or delegate performance of its obligations without the prior written consent of Sellers if any Person to whom Purchaser assigns or delegates its obligations hereunder complies with Section 5.9, in which event Purchaser and such Person shall be and remain jointly and severally liable to the Sellers for the performance of the Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and (ii) in the event of a Seller Sale, the Sellers may assign to the buyer in such Seller Sale the Sellers’ rights to receive performance of any obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement remaining to be performed after the date of consummation of such Seller Sale if the buyer in such Seller Sale assumes in writing (which shall be addressed to, and directly enforceable by, Purchaser) prior to the consummation of any such Seller Sale any and all of the Sellers’ obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements). Any purported assignment or delegation in contravention of the foregoing

shall be void. Nothing expressed or referred to in this Agreement will be construed to give any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or with respect to this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement except such rights as may inure to a successor or permitted assignee under this Section 9.5.

Section 9.6 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement remain in full force and effect, if the essential terms and conditions of this Agreement for each party remain valid, binding and enforceable.

Section 9.7 Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules to this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement. The Seller Disclosure Schedule and the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule are arranged in sections and paragraphs corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and paragraphs of Article 3 and Article 4, respectively. The disclosure in any section or paragraph of the Seller Disclosure Schedule or the Purchaser Disclosure Schedule, and those in any amendment or supplement thereto, will be deemed to relate to each other provision of Article 3 or Article 4, respectively, to the extent that the applicability of such disclosure to any other provision of Article 3 or Article 4, as applicable, is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure.

Section 9.8 Interpretation. In the negotiation of this Agreement, each party has received advice from its own attorney. The language used in this Agreement is the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no provision of this Agreement will be interpreted for or against either party because that party or its attorney drafted the provision.

Section 9.9 Expenses. Except as set forth in this Agreement, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, each party will pay its own direct and indirect expenses incurred by it in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all fees and expenses of its advisors and representatives.

Section 9.10 Governing Law. Unless any Exhibit or Schedule specifies a different choice of law, the internal laws of the State of Delaware (without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction) govern all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and its Exhibits and Schedules and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement and any disputes or controversies arising therefrom or related thereto.

Section 9.11 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by a party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached by such party. The parties accordingly agree that, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1, in addition to any other remedy to which a party is entitled at law or in equity, each party is entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement by the other party and otherwise to enforce specifically the provisions of this Agreement against such other party. Each party expressly waives any requirement that the other party obtain any bond or provide any indemnity in connection with any action seeking injunctive relief or specific enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 9.12 Jurisdiction and Service of Process. Any action or Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement must be brought in the courts of the State of Illinois or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in the United States Federal Court in the Northern District of Illinois. Each of the parties knowingly, voluntarily and irrevocably submits to the

exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to venue or to convenience of forum. Each party to this Agreement may make service on the other party by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 9.1. Nothing in this Section 9.12, however, affects the right of a party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law.

Section 9.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties knowingly, voluntarily and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the actions of either party to this Agreement in negotiation, execution and delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement.

Section 9.14 No Joint Venture. Nothing in this Agreement creates a joint venture or partnership between the parties.
