Section 2.05 Leakage Adjustment.

(a) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, the Company and Sanken shall deliver to the Subscriber a statement (the “Closing Leakage Certificate”) setting forth the Company’s and Sanken’s calculation of Leakage (the “Final Leakage Amount”).

(b) The Closing Leakage Certificate shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto on the earlier of the date of the Subscriber’s written notice to the Company and Sanken of its agreement to the Closing Leakage Certificate or the thirtieth (30th) day following receipt thereof by the Subscriber unless the Subscriber gives written notice of its disagreement, which disagreement shall be limited to an assertion that one or more components of the Closing Leakage Certificate was not calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or that the Closing Leakage Certificate contains a mathematical error (a “Notice of Disagreement”) to the Company and Sanken prior to such date. Any Notice of Disagreement shall specify in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any disagreement so asserted and the Subscriber’s alternative calculation thereof (each, a “Disputed Item”). The Subscriber will have deemed to have irrevocably agreed to all non-Disputed Items. If the Subscriber does not have any disagreement with the Closing Leakage Certificate, then the Subscriber may provide written notice to the Company and Sanken of its agreement to the Closing Leakage Certificate and the Closing Leakage Certificate shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto on the date of the Company’s and ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s receipt of such. If the Subscriber fails to deliver a timely Notice of Disagreement, the Closing Leakage Certificate shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto. If a timely Notice of Disagreement is given by the Subscriber, then the Closing Leakage Certificate (as revised as contemplated in the immediately following clause (i) or (ii) below) shall become final and binding upon the parties hereto upon the earlier to occur of (i) the date the parties hereto resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to all Disputed Items or (ii) the date all Disputed Items are finally resolved in writing by the Independent Auditor pursuant to Section 2.05(c).

(c) During the thirty (30) days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (if any), the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken shall seek to resolve each Disputed Item specified in the Notice of Disagreement. If, at the end of such thirty (30) day period (or such longer period mutually agreed between the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken), the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken have failed to resolve any Disputed Item specified in the Notice of Disagreement, the Company, Sanken and Subscriber shall jointly engage an independent accounting firm mutually agreed upon by the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken (the “Independent Auditor”) for review and resolution of any such unresolved Disputed Items. The Independent Auditor shall (i) act as an expert and not as an arbitrator, (ii) be bound by the definitions and principles set forth in this Agreement (and not by independent review), (iii) limit its review to those Disputed Items set forth in the Notice of Disagreement that remain in dispute, (iv) not assign a value to any Disputed Item that is greater than the greatest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either the Company, Sanken or the Subscriber or less than the smallest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either such party and (v) be limited to correcting mathematical errors and determining whether the items and amounts in dispute were determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. There will be no ex parte communications

between the Company, Sanken or the Subscriber, on the one hand, and the Independent Auditor, on the other hand, relating to the Disputed Items, other than written answers by the Company, Sanken or the Subscriber to written questions of the Independent Auditor (copies of which questions and answers shall be provided simultaneously to the other such party). Each of the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken shall provide the other with a copy of any such written presentations and information provided to the Independent Auditor substantially contemporaneously with its delivery thereto.

(d) The Independent Auditor shall be instructed to resolve such dispute as soon as practicable and, in any event, within thirty (30) days from the date the dispute is submitted to the Independent Auditor, and to render its final determination in writing setting forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which its determination was made. The Independent Auditor’s final determination as to each Disputed Item shall be final and binding on the parties hereto, absent a showing of fraud, willful misconduct or manifest error and enforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction. Upon the earlier of (i) resolution of all Disputed Items by the Subscriber, the Company and Sanken, or (ii) by the Independent Auditor pursuant to this Section 2.05(d), the Closing Leakage Certificate shall be revised to reflect such resolution, if so required (the date of such final resolution or agreement, the “Final Determination Date”). The costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor in determining any such Disputed Items shall be allocated between the Subscriber, on the one hand, and Sanken, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the Disputed Items submitted to the Independent Auditor that are unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Independent Auditor) bears to the total amount of such Disputed Items so submitted. For example, should the Disputed Items total an aggregate amount equal to $1,000 and the Independent Auditor awards $600 in favor of the Subscriber’s position, 60% of the costs of the Independent Auditor’s review would be borne by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and 40% of such costs would be borne by the Subscriber.

(e) If the Final Leakage Amount exceeds the Estimated Leakage Amount, then within five (5) Business Days of the Final Determination Date, Sanken shall contribute to the Company the difference between the Final Leakage Amount and the Estimated Leakage Amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the Company in writing. If the Final Leakage Amount is less than the Estimated Leakage Amount, the Company shall remit to Sanken the difference between the Estimated Leakage Amount and the Final Leakage Amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ in writing. If the Final Leakage Amount is equal to the Estimated Leakage Amount, neither the Company, Sanken nor the Subscriber shall be entitled to additional payments or contributions under this ‎Section 2.05.

Section 7.04 Third-Party Claim Procedures.

(a) The party seeking indemnification under ‎‎Section 7.02 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice in writing to the party against whom indemnity is to be sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any suit, action or Proceeding by any third party (for the avoidance of doubt, a third party does not include an Affiliate of a party hereto) (“Third-Party Claim”) in respect of which indemnity may be sought under such Section. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such Third-Party Claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party (and, if applicable, the Subscriber) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim and, subject to the limitations set forth in this ‎‎Section 7.04, shall be entitled to control and appoint lead counsel for such defense reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in each case at its sole expense, by providing written notice to the Indemnified Party, which notice shall (i) include an acknowledgement by such Indemnifying Party that the Indemnifying Party would have an indemnity obligation for the Damages resulting from such Third-Party Claim pursuant to this ‎‎Article 7 and (ii) include reasonable evidence that the Indemnifying Party has adequate resources to defend the Third-Party Claim and fulfill its indemnity obligations hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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 (as Damages hereunder) retained by the Indemnified Party hereunder, if (i) the Indemnifying Party does not deliver the written notice referred to in ‎Section 7.04(b) within 30 days of receipt of notice of the Third-Party Claim pursuant to ‎Section 7.04(a), (ii) the Third-Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal or regulatory proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (iii) the Third-Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates; (iv) the Third-Party Claim relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Indemnified Party or its direct or indirect equityholders, (v) the Indemnified Party shall have one or more legal or equitable defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, counsel for the Indemnifying Party could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Party because such interests could be in conflict with those of the Indemnifying Party; or (vi) in the case of the Subscriber Indemnified Parties, it would reasonably be expected that the Damages arising from such Proceeding will exceed the limits on Parents’ indemnification obligations set forth in this ‎‎Article 7 at such time after taking into account the aggregate amount of all Damages that would reasonably be expected to arise from other then pending claims against Parents or the Company.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this ‎‎Section 7.04, the Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third-Party Claim unless the settlement (i) shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff of a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party, from all liability with respect to the matters that are subject to such Third-Party Claim, (ii) does not contain any admission of wrongdoing or material sanction or restriction upon the conduct or operation of any business conducted by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates and (iii) involves only monetary Damages for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ‎‎Article 7, or otherwise shall have been approved in writing by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not timely deliver the notice contemplated by ‎Section 7.04(b), or if such notice is given on a timely basis but any of the other conditions in ‎Section 7.04(b) or ‎Section 7.04(c) is or becomes unsatisfied, (A) the Indemnified Party may defend, and may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any compromise or settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim; provided that, in the case of any such entry of judgment, compromise or settlement, the Indemnifying Party shall have given its prior written consent thereto (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned by the Indemnifying Party) and (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim.

(e) In circumstances where the Indemnifying Party is controlling the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with the provisions of this ‎‎Section 7.04, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and to employ separate counsel of its choice for such purpose, in which case the fees and expenses of such separate counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party after such time as the Indemnifying Party assumed control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with ‎Section 7.04(a) and ‎‎Section 7.04(c) shall be borne by the Indemnified Party; provided, that in such event the Indemnifying Party shall pay the fees and expenses of such separate counsel (as Damages hereunder) incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the date the Indemnifying Party assumes control of the defense of the Third-Party Claim or during any period in which the Indemnifying Party ceases to be eligible to

maintain control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in either case as provided in‎ ‎‎Section 7.04(c).

(f) Each party hereto shall cooperate, and cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate, in good faith in the defense or prosecution of any Third-Party Claim and shall furnish or cause to be furnished such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery Proceedings, hearings, trials or appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith, subject in each case to the execution of customary confidentiality and joint defense agreements.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, ‎Section 7.04(b) through ‎‎Section 7.04(e) will not govern claims in respect of Taxes of the Company or any Company Subsidiary under ‎‎Section 7.02, which will be subject to ‎Section 7.04(a), ‎‎Section 7.04(f) and this ‎‎Section 7.04(g). If, after the Closing, the Company or any Company Subsidiary receives notice of a Tax claim that could give rise to an indemnification payment under ‎‎Section 7.02, the Company or any applicable Company Subsidiary, as the case may be, will have the right to control the conduct and resolution of any such Tax claim, provided, however, that with respect to any such Tax claim for a material amount of Taxes, the Company or any applicable Company Subsidiary, as the case may be, (i) will keep the Subscriber informed of all material developments and events relating to such Tax claim on a timely basis, (ii) will consult with the Subscriber before taking any significant action with respect to such Tax claim and give the Subscriber an opportunity to participate in any significant meetings or discussions with any Governmental Entities with respect to such Tax claim, and (iii) will not resolve any such Tax claim that could potentially affect Tax liabilities of the Subscriber without the Subscriber’s written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Section 7.05 Direct Claim Procedures. In the event an Indemnified Party has a claim for indemnification under ‎‎Section 7.02 against an Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party agrees to give prompt notice in writing of such claim to the Indemnifying Party (a “Claim Notice”). The Claim Notice shall set forth in reasonable detail such claim and the basis for indemnification (taking into account the information then available to the Indemnified Party). The failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such failure shall have prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days following the receipt of a Claim Notice with respect to any such claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its indemnity obligation to the Indemnified Party for any Damages with respect to such claim, such Damages shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnified Party any and all Damages arising out of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its indemnity obligation for any Damages with respect to such claim, the parties shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation in an appropriate court of jurisdiction determined pursuant ‎‎Section 10.07.

Section 7.06 Indemnification Payment. Any indemnification of the Subscriber Indemnified Parties by the Company pursuant to ‎‎Section 7.02(a) shall, at the Subscriber’s sole option, be effected by (i) the issuance by the Company of a number of additional Company Units equal to the amount of Damages suffered or incurred by such Subscriber Indemnified Parties

divided by the Per Unit Price or (ii) a cash payment by Sanken in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account specified by such Subscriber Indemnified Party, as applicable, which cash payment shall be in the amount of the Damages incurred by such Subscriber Indemnified Party, provided that if Sanken does not fulfill its obligation under this clause (ii) within ten (10) Business Days, Subscriber may, at its sole option, seek such fulfilment from the Company pursuant to clause (i). Any indemnification of the Subscriber Indemnified Parties by Parents pursuant to ‎Section 7.02(b) or any indemnification of the Parent Indemnified Parties by the Subscriber pursuant to ‎‎‎Section 7.02(c), in each case shall be effected by cash payment in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account specified by such Subscriber Indemnified Party or Parent Indemnified Party, as applicable, which cash payment shall be in the amount of the Damages incurred by such Subscriber Indemnified Party or Parent Indemnified Party, as applicable. To the extent permitted by Law, any indemnity payment made shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price paid, or to the number of Units issued, in connection with the issuance of Purchased Units as contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.07 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, and except with respect to claims based on Fraud and claims for injunctive relief and specific performance pursuant to ‎‎Section 10.10, from and after the Closing the provisions of this ‎‎Article 7 shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the parties hereto (and any parties claiming by or through such parties) for claims arising from any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or certificates delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith.

(e) By the Subscriber, at any time prior to the Closing, if: (i) there has been a breach by the Company and/or either Parent of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, in each case, such that any condition contained in ‎‎Section 9.03(a) or ‎‎Section 9.03(b) is not reasonably capable of being satisfied at the Closing, (ii) the Subscriber shall have delivered to the Company written notice of such breach and (iii) such breach is not capable of cure in a manner sufficient to allow satisfaction of the conditions in ‎‎Section 9.03(a) or ‎‎Section 9.03(b) prior to the Outside Date or at least 30 days have elapsed since the date of delivery of such written notice to the Company and such breach has not been cured; provided, however, that the Subscriber shall not be permitted to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this ‎Section 8.01(e)‎ if the Subscriber is then in material breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement.

(f) By the Subscriber, upon written notice to the Company and each Parent, if at any time prior to the Closing, Subscriber determines not to proceed with the Closing.

Section 8.02 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted by ‎Section 8.01, this Agreement shall become null and void and of no further force and effect, each of the parties hereto shall be relieved of their duties and obligations arising under this Agreement after the date of such termination and such termination shall be without liability to any party hereto or any of its respective Affiliates, officers, directors, stockholders or members; provided, that, the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party from any liability or damages incurred or suffered by another party as a result of such first party’s willful and material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement occurring prior to such termination. The provisions of ‎Section 8.02 (Effect of Termination) and ‎‎Section 6.02 (Public Announcements) and ‎Article 10 (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to ‎Section 8.01.

Section 10.02 Amendments and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement will be waived, modified or amended without the prior written consent of the Company, Parents and the Subscriber. No failure or delay by any party hereto 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. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 10.03 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of applicable Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect 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 determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto 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 to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(c) Each party hereto agrees that it will not bring or support any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in tort, contract or otherwise, against any party in any way relating to this Agreement in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom).

No provision of this Agreement is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and any third party beneficiaries identified under ‎‎Section 10.14.
