AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION

This AMENDED AND RESTATED AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER AND REORGANIZATION, dated as of May 6, 2025, is entered into by and among flyExclusive, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), FlyX Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), ▇▇▇.▇▇ Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ▇▇▇.▇▇ SpinCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and, as of the date of this Agreement, wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company (“SpinCo”). Each of the foregoing parties is referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” This Agreement amends, restates, replaces and supersedes in its entirety that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization by and among the Parties, dated February 13, 2025. Terms with initial capitalized letters used herein (including in the immediately preceding sentence) and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in Section 1.1 hereof.

A. As of the date of this Agreement, SpinCo is a wholly owned, direct Subsidiary of the Company.

B. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Company, SpinCo and Parent are entering into the Separation and Distribution Agreement, pursuant to which the Company will transfer the SpinCo Business to SpinCo (the “Separation”).

C. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement the Company will distribute all of the shares of SpinCo Common Stock to the Company stockholders without consideration on a pro rata basis as set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement (the “Distribution”). As of the Distribution Date, SpinCo will be the sole owner and operator of the SpinCo Business.

D. Contingent on the completion of the Distribution, the Parties to this Agreement intend to effect a merger of Merger Sub, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, with and into the SpinCo (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”). Upon consummation of the Merger, Merger Sub will cease to exist, and SpinCo will continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

E. Promptly following the consummation of the Merger, Parent intends to cause the Surviving Corporation to convert to a limited liability company. At least one day following the conversion of the Surviving Corporation to a limited liability company, Parent intends to contribute all of the equity of the Surviving Corporation to LGM Enterprises, LLC in exchange for the issuance of a number of Common Units of LGM Enterprises, LLC (as defined in the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of LGM Enterprises, LLC, dated December 27, 2023 (the “LGM Operating Agreement”)) equal to the Merger Consideration Shares such that the number of Common Units of LGM Enterprises, LLC held by Parent shall maintain a one-to-one ratio to the number of shares of issued and outstanding Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.12 of the LGM Operating Agreement.

F. Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreements, and as a condition and inducement to Parent’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the Persons identified on Section 5.3(c) of the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule (the “Specified Stockholders”) are executing and delivering to Parent that certain Stockholder Support Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (the “Stockholder Support Agreements”), by and among the Specified Stockholders, Parent and Merger Sub.

G. The board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) has unanimously: (a) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Distribution and the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement and herein, are fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and the Company’s stockholders; (b) approved and declared advisable this Agreement, including the execution, delivery, and performance thereof, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Separation and Distribution and the Merger, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation and Distribution Agreement and herein; (c) directed that the Separation and Distribution Agreement and this Agreement be submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders for adoption; and (d) resolved to recommend that Company stockholders vote in favor of adoption of this Agreement in accordance with the DGCL.

H. The respective boards of directors of Parent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sub have each unanimously: (a) determined that it is in the best interests of Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, and their respective stockholders, and declared it advisable, to enter into this Agreement; and (b) approved the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, in each case, in accordance with the DGCL.

Article III

CONVERSION OF SHARES

3.1 Effect on Capital Stock. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any party to this Agreement or any holder of the capital stock of the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub or Parent:

(a) SpinCo Common Stock and Merger Sub Common Stock.

(i) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares canceled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii)) shall be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive (i) a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Closing Date Exchange Ratio, (the “Closing Date Per Share Merger Consideration”) and (ii) a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Reserve Exchange Ratio (the “Reserve Per Share Merger Consideration” and together, with the Closing Date Per Share Merger Consideration, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with Section 3.2(h), and subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(iv) and the purchase price adjustment provisions set forth in Section 3.3.

(ii) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock held by SpinCo as treasury stock or by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled automatically and shall cease to exist, and no stock or other consideration shall be issued or delivered in exchange therefor or in respect thereof.

(iii) Each share of SpinCo Common Stock issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, when converted in accordance with this Section 3.1, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i) and any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(g).

(iv) The Closing Date Exchange Ratio and the Reserve Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect the effect of any stock split, split-up, reverse stock split, stock dividend or distribution of Parent Common Stock, or securities convertible into any such securities, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change (any such change, an “Equity Adjustment”) with respect to Parent Common Stock having a record date occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time; provided, that nothing in this Section 3.1(a)(iv) shall be construed to permit Parent to take or to permit any of its Subsidiaries to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(v) At the Effective Time, all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Merger Sub (“Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Parent Securities. Each share of Parent Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding immediately following the Effective Time.

3.2 Surrender and Payment.

(a) Pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Exchange Agent shall hold, for the account of the relevant SpinCo stockholders, book-entry shares representing all of the outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock distributed in the Distribution.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an exchange agreement in customary form (the “Exchange Agent Agreement”) with the transfer agent of Parent to act as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration Shares. Substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the SpinCo Holders, for exchange in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) promptly after the Effective Time, book-entry shares representing the Closing Date Merger Consideration Shares issuable to the SpinCo Holders pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) (such book-entry shares of Parent Stock, together with any cash received by the Exchange Agent in respect of dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.2(g), as applicable, the “Exchange Fund”). Following the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall deliver, pursuant to instructions from Parent (the “Parent Instructions”), the Closing Date Merger Consideration Shares to be issued pursuant to this Article III out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this Section 3.2(b). The Parent Instructions will also instruct the Exchange Agent to establish a contra-CUSIP for each SpinCo Holder to facilitate the issuance of the Reserve Shares, if any, pursuant to Section 3.3.

(c) As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each SpinCo Holder, from the Exchange Fund, the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable in respect of such shares of SpinCo Common Stock pursuant to the Merger (other than the Reserve Shares). Each SpinCo Holder shall be entitled to receive in respect of such shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by such Person a book-entry authorization representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) (and any dividends or distributions and other amounts pursuant to Section 3.2(g)).

(d) Each SpinCo Holder shall be entitled to receive, in respect of the SpinCo Common Stock, the (i) Closing Date Per Share Merger Consideration and (ii) Reserve Per Share Merger Consideration that becomes issuable, if any, upon receipt of an “agent’s message” by the Exchange Agent (or such other evidence, if any, of transfer as the Exchange Agent may reasonably request). Until so transferred each such share of SpinCo Common Stock shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof. Upon payment of the Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.2, each share of SpinCo Common Stock so transferred shall immediately be cancelled. At the Effective Time, Parent will reserve, out of its authorized capital stock, a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Reserve Shares, which such Reserve Shares will be issued, if any, pursuant to the terms of Section 3.3.

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) Distributions After the Effective Time. Subject to the following sentence, no dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Common Stock shall be paid with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock that are not able to be delivered by the Exchange Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such delivery or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following the delivery of any such previously undelivered shares of Parent Common Stock, there shall be paid to the record holder of such shares of Parent Common Stock, without interest, at the time of delivery, to the extent not previously paid, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.

(g) No Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Common Stock or book-entry credit of the same shall be issued on conversion of SpinCo Common Stock, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote, or to any other rights of a stockholder of Parent. All fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that a holder of shares of SpinCo Common Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive as a result of the Merger shall be aggregated by the Exchange Agent. The Exchange Agent shall cause the whole shares obtained thereby to be sold on behalf of such holders that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger in the open market (or otherwise as reasonably directed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇), in each case at then-prevailing market prices as soon as reasonably practicable and in no case later than ten (10) Business Days after the Effective Time. The Exchange Agent shall make available the net proceeds thereof, subject to the deduction of the amount of any withholding Taxes as contemplated in Section 3.2(m) and brokerage charges, commissions and conveyance and similar Taxes, to the holders of SpinCo Common Stock that would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger (after the aggregation contemplated by this Section 3.2(h)) on a pro rata basis based on such fractional interest, without interest, as soon as practicable thereafter. The payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares is solely for the purpose of avoiding the expense and inconvenience of issuing fractional shares and does not represent separately bargained-for consideration.

(h) No Further Ownership Rights in SpinCo Common Stock. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued in respect of shares of SpinCo Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.2 (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 3.2(g)) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of SpinCo Common Stock.

(i) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund made available to the Exchange Agent that remains undistributed to the SpinCo Holders on the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, and any SpinCo Holders who have not received shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent for the Per Share Merger Consideration to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(i) and any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 3.2(g) (subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law).

(j) No Liability. None of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Parent, Merger Sub, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any SpinCo Holder or holder of Company Common Stock for shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto or with respect to SpinCo Common Stock) or cash properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

(k) Closing of Transfer Books. From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of SpinCo shall be closed and no transfer shall be made of any shares of capital stock of SpinCo that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(l) Tax Withholding. Parent, the Company, SpinCo, Merger Sub, and the Exchange Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of SpinCo Common Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such deducted or withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made.

3.3 Net Cash Adjustment; Issuance of Reserve Shares; Issuance of Additional Merger Consideration Shares.

(a) The portion, if any, of the Reserve Shares to be issued to the SpinCo Holders shall be determined in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.3.

(b) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Company a written statement (the “Closing Net Cash Statement”) setting forth in reasonable detail and accompanied by reasonably detailed backup documentation, Parent’s calculation of (i) Net Cash and (ii) the Purchase Price resulting therefrom (the “Proposed Amounts”), taking into account and giving effect to the payment of any Unpaid Transaction Expenses in connection with the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Closing Net Cash Statement and the components thereof will be prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Parent shall provide the Company with reasonable access to such books and records as may be reasonably requested by the Company to review and verify the information contained in the Closing Net Cash Statement (subject to customary confidentiality obligations as requested by Parent and execution of customary access letters if requested by accountants). The Parties agree that the purpose of preparing the Closing Net Cash Statement and determining the final amounts of Net Cash and the related purchase price adjustment contemplated by this Section 3.3 is to measure differences between the amount of Estimated Net Cash used in the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price and the adjustment procedures set forth in this Section 3.3 are not intended to permit the introduction of different judgments, accounting methods, policies, principles, practices, procedures, classifications or estimation methodologies for the purpose of determining the final amount of Net Cash, other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Within thirty (30) days following the Company’s receipt of the Closing Net Cash Statement, if the Company disputes in good faith the calculation of specific line items set forth in the Closing Net Cash Statement, the Company will deliver a written notice to Parent that sets forth the nature of each individual disputed item and the basis therefor in reasonable detail (including the determinations and calculations thereof) (a “Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute”). If the Company does not notify the Parent of any Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute within such thirty (30)-day period in accordance with the immediately foregoing sentence, then the Closing Net Cash Statement and the determination and calculation of the Purchase Price set forth therein will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and each SpinCo Holder for all purposes of this Agreement. If the Company timely notifies Parent of a Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute in accordance with this Section3.3(c), then Parent and the Company will negotiate in good faith to resolve all disputed matters set forth therein and, if Parent and the Company so resolve all disputes, the Closing Net Cash Statement (and the computations of the Proposed Amounts indicated thereon), as amended to the extent necessary to reflect the resolution of the dispute, shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and each SpinCo Holder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(d) If the Company and Parent, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute within thirty (30) days (or longer, as mutually agreed to by such parties in writing) after the Company delivers to Parent notice of the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute, then Parent and the Company jointly will engage BDO (or if BDO is not able to serve in such capacity, another nationally or regionally recognized independent accounting firm as is mutually agreed to by Parent and the Company) (the “Independent Auditor”), to promptly resolve any and all unresolved matters of the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute. As promptly as practicable thereafter, Parent and the Company will each prepare and submit a written presentation to the Independent Auditor (each of which shall be shared with the other party, but not until such time that both parties have submitted their presentations) and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Auditor to make a final determination in accordance with this Agreement with respect to only those items and amounts set forth in the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute and the Closing Net Cash Statement that are identified by either Parent or the Company as being items that Parent and the Company are unable to resolve. The scope of the disputes to be resolved by the Independent Auditor is limited to those matters that remain in dispute and that were included in the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute, and the Independent Auditor is not to make any other determination (including the interpretation of provisions of this Agreement unrelated to the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute). In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Auditor will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, will serve as an expert and not an arbitrator, and will not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party in the Closing Net Cash Statement or the Closing Net Cash Statement Dispute (as applicable). Except as Parent and the Company may otherwise mutually agree, all communications between any party or its respective Representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Auditor, on the other hand, will be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party (except in such cases where both parties are submitting a presentation). The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Auditor will be borne by Parent and the Company in inverse proportion, as determined by the Independent Auditor, as they may prevail on the matter resolved by the Independent Auditor. For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to $1,000 and the Independent Auditor awards $600 in favor of the Company’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and forty percent (40%) of the costs would be borne by the Company. Absent fraud or manifest error, all determinations made by the Independent Auditor and the resulting computation of Net Cash and the Purchase Price (based thereon) will be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties and each SpinCo Holder for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) If the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.3(c)) is equal to or greater than an amount equal to (x) the Initial Purchase Price, plus (y) the Purchase Price Adjustment Threshold, then the Parent shall promptly issue the SpinCo Holders a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the lesser of (i) the quotient of (A) the Surplus divided by the Parent Trading Price, rounded up to the nearest whole share, and (ii) 20% of the of the Merger Consideration Shares, rounded up to the nearest whole share (such shares of Parent Common Stock, the “Additional Merger Consideration Shares”). Parent will have no further liability for the Surplus other than the issuance of the Additional Merger Consideration Shares.

(f) If the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.3(c)) is equal to or greater than the Initial Purchase Price, then the Parent will issue the Reserve Shares, pro rata, to the SpinCo Holders.

(g) If the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.3(c)) is less than the difference of (x) the Initial Purchase Price, minus (y) the Purchase Price Adjustment Threshold (the amount by which the Purchase Price is less than the Initial Purchase Price, the “Deficit”) and the Deficit exceeds the Reserve Shares Value, then none of the Reserve Shares will be issued to the SpinCo Holders, and all such shares will remain authorized, but unissued, shares of Parent Common Stock no longer reserved for issuance hereunder. Absent Fraud, the SpinCo Holders will have no further liability for the Deficit other than the forfeiture of any right to receive any portion of the Reserve Shares.

(h) If the Purchase Price (as finally determined pursuant to Section 3.3(c)) is less than the difference of (x) the Initial Purchase Price, minus (y) the Purchase Price Adjustment Threshold and the Reserve Shares Value exceeds the Deficit, then Parent will (i) retain and not issue a number of Reserve Shares equal in value (based on the Parent Trading Price) to the Deficit, and the SpinCo Holders shall have no further rights in any portion of such retained Reserve Shares, and (ii) issue the remaining balance of Reserve Shares that are not so retained, pro rata, to the SpinCo Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, any Reserve Shares that are retained and not issued pursuant to subsection (i) of the foregoing sentence will remain authorized, but unissued, shares of Parent Common Stock no longer reserved for issuance hereunder.

(i) The Reserved Shares are authorized, but unissued, shares of Parent Common Stock that Parent has reserved for issuance, subject to the terms of this Section 3.3. For the avoidance of doubt, no SpinCo Holder has any voting rights, dividend rights, distribution rights or similar rights, in respect of the Reserved Shares, unless and until the Reserved Shares are issued to the SpinCo Holders pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.3, if any.

3.4 Appraisal Rights. In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to the SpinCo Holders in connection with the Merger.

7.3 Tax Matters.

(a) The Company and SpinCo, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, shall cooperate with each other in obtaining, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain, any Tax opinions required to be filed with the SEC in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement and shall each use its respective reasonable efforts to cause such opinions to be timely filed.

(b) At and after the Effective Time, each of the Parties covenants and agrees that it will maintain all books and records and file all federal, state, and local income Tax Returns and schedules thereto of the Parent, SpinCo, and Merger Sub in a manner consistent with the Merger’s being qualified as a reorganization and nontaxable exchange under Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code (and comparable provisions of any applicable state or local income Tax Laws); provided, that Parent and Merger Sub make no representations or covenants to the Company, SpinCo or any of their stockholders as to whether the Merger ultimately will be determined to be as such a reorganization.

(c) No later than sixty (60) days after the Effective Time, the Company shall provide Parent with a schedule setting forth SpinCo’s holding period and adjusted basis for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, as well as any differences thereof for any state or local Tax purposes, as of the Effective Time, of each of the SpinCo Assets and any other assets held by SpinCo as of the Effective Time.

(d) From and after the Closing Date, the Company will include SpinCo in its consolidated federal income Tax Return, as well as all state or local income Tax Returns for which consolidation is permitted, for all periods through end of the day of the Effective Time. The Company will prepare the initial draft of all income Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for each Pre-Closing Tax Period that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. All such income Tax Returns for any Pre-Closing Tax Period must be prepared (i) in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) consistent with the past practices of the Company except as otherwise required by applicable Law. The Company will give the Parent a reasonable opportunity, and in no event less than thirty (30) days, to review, comment on and approve any income Tax Returns that relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of the Company or applicable Subsidiary. The Company will make such revisions to those income Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Parent that (i) are consistent with the terms of this Agreement with respect to Tax liabilities related to SpinCo, the SpinCo Assets, or the SpinCo Business and (ii) are in accordance with applicable Tax Law. The parties will cooperate fully and promptly in connection with the preparation and filing of such income Tax Returns, and the Company will timely file all income Tax Returns for each Pre-Closing Tax Period that are required to be filed after the Closing Date. Parent will be responsible for preparing and filing, or causing to be timely prepared and filed, all Tax Returns for each Straddle Period and Post-Closing Tax Period of SpinCo.

(e) Whenever it is necessary to determine the liability for Taxes of SpinCo for a portion of a taxable year or period that begins on or before and ends after the Closing Date, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that constitutes a Pre-Closing Tax will be as follows: (i) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, payroll, or receipts, the portion of such Tax constituting a Pre-Closing Tax will equal the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax Period ending at the end of the day of the Effective Time and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax Period; and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income or receipts, the portion of such Tax constituting a Pre-Closing Tax will be determined and apportioned using an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the day of the Effective Time except that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis will be allocated to the period ending at the end of the day of the Effective Time in the same proportion as the number of calendar days during the Taxable Period through such date bears to the number of calendar days in the entire Taxable Period.

(f) Parent and the Company will cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other of the parties, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Agreement. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon any other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to the preparation and filing of any such Tax Return. Parent and the Company will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to SpinCo relating to any Taxable Period beginning on or before the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by the Parent or the Company, any extensions thereof) of the respective Taxable Periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Tax authority.

(g) So long as taxable periods of SpinCo ending on or before, or including, the day of the Effective Time remain open for an assessment of Tax, Parent and the Company will notify the other in writing within ten (10) Business Days after receipt by Parent or the Company of written or oral notice of any pending or threatened audit or assessment with respect to Taxes of SpinCo, the SpinCo Assets or the SpinCo Business relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period.

(h) The Company will not agree to any adjustment, or make any Tax election, that will or may create an increase in Taxes for SpinCo or the Parent in respect of any Tax Period ending after the Closing Date, except with ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s prior written consent.

(i) Notwithstanding Section 10.4, all federal, state, local, foreign and other transfer, sales, use or similar Taxes applicable to, imposed upon or arising out of the Transactions will be paid by the Company.

7.4 Preparation of the Registration Statement.

(a) Within fourteen (14) Business Days after the execution of this Agreement, Parent, the Company and SpinCo shall jointly prepare and Parent shall file with the SEC the Registration Statement.

(b) Each of Parent, the Company and SpinCo shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as promptly as practicable after such filing (including by responding to comments of the SEC) and to keep such registration statements effective for as long as is necessary to consummate the Transactions, and, prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, each of Parent, the Company and SpinCo shall take all action reasonably required (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or filing a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction) to be taken under any applicable securities Laws in connection with the Parent Share Issuance and the Distribution. As promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement shall have become effective, each of the Company and Parent, as applicable, shall cause the Distribution Documents or the applicable portions of the Registration Statement (including the prospectus included therein), as applicable, to be mailed or made available to the Company’s stockholders, in each case pursuant to applicable Law. No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement will be made by Parent without providing the Company and SpinCo with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon (and such comments shall be reasonably considered by Parent in good faith). Each Party (as applicable) will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Distribution Documents and the Registration Statement to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of U.S. federal securities Laws.

(c) Each of Parent, the Company and SpinCo shall ensure that none of the information supplied by or on its behalf for inclusion or incorporation by reference in (A) the Registration Statement will, at the time filed with the SEC, at each time at which it is amended and at the time it becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading or (B) the Distribution Documents will, at the date they are mailed or made available to the Company’s stockholders, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

(d) If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any information relating to Parent, the Company or SpinCo, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by Parent, the Company or SpinCo, which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, so that the Registration Statement would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC, and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the shareholders of Parent or the Company, as applicable. Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective and of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Merger or shares of SpinCo Common Stock issuable in the Distribution for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. In addition, each Party agrees to provide the other Party and their respective counsel promptly with copies of any written comments or requests for amendments or supplements, and shall promptly inform the other Party of any oral comments or requests for amendments or supplements, that such Party or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement, promptly after receipt of such comments, and shall provide the other Party with copies of any written or oral responses or correspondence between it or its Affiliates and the SEC related thereto. Each Party and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review in advance any such written responses and to participate in any discussions or oral material communications with the SEC, and each Party shall reasonably consider in good faith the additions, deletions, comments or changes suggested thereto by the other Party and its counsel.

(e) Promptly following the final determination, if any, that Parent is required to issue Additional Merger Consideration Shares pursuant to Section 3.3(e), to the extent the Registration Statement does not effect the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance of a sufficient number of shares to include the Additional Merger Consideration Shares, Parent will prepare and file with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or other registration statement (as determined in Parent’s reasonable discretion) in order to effect the registration under the Securities Act of the issuance of the such Additional Merger Consideration Shares.

7.5 Company Shareholders Meeting. The Company shall call, give notice of, convene and hold a general meeting (the “Company Shareholders Meeting”) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective, for the purpose of obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval; provided, that subject to the requirements of any applicable Law, the Company may (and, in the case of clause (C) on up to two (2) occasions upon the reasonable request of the Parent (and for no more than five (5) Business Days each) shall) postpone or adjourn the Company Shareholders Meeting (A) if a quorum has not been established; (B) after consultation with Parent, to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement as may be required under applicable Law and for such supplement or amendment to be disseminated and reviewed by Company’s shareholders sufficiently in advance of the Company Shareholders Meeting; (C) to allow reasonable additional time to solicit additional proxies, if and to the extent the requisite Company Shareholder Approval would not otherwise be obtained; (D) after consultation with Parent, if otherwise required by applicable Law; or (E) with the prior written consent of Parent; provided, that the Company Shareholders’ Meeting will not be adjourned to a date that is more than thirty (30) days after the date for which the Company Shareholders’ Meeting was originally scheduled (excluding any adjournments required by applicable Law). The Company shall advise Parent upon request on a daily basis during each of the last five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the Company Shareholders Meeting as to the aggregate tally of proxies received by Parent with respect to the Company Shareholder Approval and at additional times upon the reasonable request of Parent.

7.6 Reasonable Best Efforts. Each of Parent, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to promptly do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other in doing, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date, including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances, approvals, and expirations or terminations of waiting periods, from Governmental Authorities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings in connection therewith, and (ii) using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties.

7.7 Access to Information.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, to afford to the other Party and to its respective Representatives, reasonable access, during normal business hours and subject to bona fide policies and procedures established by the other Party, during the Interim Period, in such manner as to not interfere with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ business’s or the SpinCo Business’s (as applicable) normal operations, the properties, books and records and appropriate senior-level officers and employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries or the Company and its Subsidiaries (including SpinCo) that are related to the SpinCo Business (as applicable), and shall furnish such Party and its Representatives with such accounting (including accountants’ work papers), financial and operating data and other information concerning the affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries or the SpinCo Business or SpinCo (as applicable), in each case, as such Party and its Representatives may reasonably request for the purposes of furthering the Transactions or for purposes of preparing for the operation of Parent and the Surviving Corporation post-Closing; provided, that (x) such investigation shall only be upon reasonable notice and at the sole cost and expense of the investigating Party; and (y) nothing in this Agreement shall require any Party to permit any inspection or disclose any information to any other Party that (i) would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of such Party’s business or result in damage to property (other than immaterial damage), except with such other Party’s prior written consent (which may be withheld or denied at its sole discretion), (ii) would cause a violation of any Law, privacy policy or any confidentiality obligations and similar restrictions that may be applicable to such information, or (iii) would jeopardize the attorney-client privilege or other disclosure privilege or protection to such Party; provided, that the Party that would otherwise be required to disclose information to the other shall take any and all reasonable action necessary to permit such disclosure without such loss of privilege or violation of agreement, policy, Law or other restriction, including through the use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consent or waiver to the disclosure of such information from any third party and through the implementation of appropriate and mutually agreeable “clean room” or other similar procedures designed to limit any such adverse effect of sharing such information by each Party).

7.8 Public Announcements. Except (a) as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, (b) in connection with any press release, public statement or filing to be issued or made by Parent with respect to any Modification in Recommendation, and (c) for the separate or joint press releases to be issued by the Parties in the forms agreed by the Parties (or any public statement or disclosure that contains or reflects only such information previously disclosed in press releases or other public disclosures made in accordance with this Section 7.8), neither Parent nor the Company will, and each of Parent and the Company will cause its Subsidiaries not to, issue any press release or otherwise make any public statements or disclosure with respect to the Transactions without the prior written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent such disclosure is required by applicable Law or the rules of any stock exchange, the Party seeking to make such disclosure will promptly notify the other Party thereof and the Party making such statement will use efforts reasonable under the circumstances to consult in good faith with the other Party thereto prior to making such disclosure in order to allow a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Party may make statements that are consistent with previous public releases made by such Party in compliance with this Section 7.8.

If the claim relates to an action, suit or proceeding filed by another Person against the Claimant (a “Third-Party Claim”), then such notice will be given by the Claimant within twenty (20) Business Days after written notice of such action, suit or proceeding is given to the Claimant and will include true, correct and complete copies of all suit, service and claim documents. The failure or delay of the Claimant to provide any such notice or deliver such copies will not release the Company from any of its obligations under this Article IX unless (and then solely to the extent that) the Company is materially prejudiced thereby.

(b) With respect to claims solely between a Parent Indemnitee and the Company, the notice by the Claimant shall describe the claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Claimant. Following receipt of notice from the Claimant of a claim, the Company will have thirty (30) days to make such investigation of the claim as the Company reasonably deems necessary or desirable, and the Claimant agrees to make available to the Company and its authorized Representatives all information relevant and necessary to substantiate the claim, except to the extent any attorney-client privilege would thereby be vitiated. If the Claimant and the Company agree at or prior to the expiration of such thirty (30)-day period to the validity and amount of such claim, then the Company will promptly pay to the Claimant the full amount of the claim, subject to the terms and limitations hereof. If the Claimant and the Company do not reach any such agreement within such thirty (30)-day period, then the Claimant may seek an appropriate remedy at law or in equity, as applicable, subject to the terms and limitations hereof. If the Company fails to respond to the Claimant within such thirty (30)-day period then the Company shall be deemed to have agreed to the full amount of the claim.

(i) With respect to any Third-Party Claim, the Company will be entitled to assume and maintain control of the defense and settlement of such Third-Party Claim if each of the following conditions (collected referred to as the “Conditions”) are satisfied: (A) the Third-Party Claim seeks solely monetary damages, (B) the Company reasonably demonstrates that it has the financial resources necessary to defend the matter and fulfill its indemnity obligations, (C) the Third-Party Claim does not involve an Action by a Governmental Authority against Claimant and (D) the Company covenants to and will defend the Third-Party Claim actively, diligently and in good faith.

(ii) If the Company satisfies the Conditions, the Claimant will notify the Company that it has the right to assume and maintain control of the defense and settlement of such Third-Party Claim. The Company may exercise its right within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice. If the Company exercises its right to assume and maintain control of the defense and settlement of the Third-Party Claim, it must use counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant, which counsel will be at the sole expense of the Company. Additionally, if the Company exercises such right to assume such control, then the Claimant will be entitled to participate in the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claim and to employ counsel at its own expense to assist in the handling of such Third-Party Claim. In such event, counsel selected by the Company will be required to reasonably cooperate with such counsel of the Claimant in such defense, compromise or settlement.

(iii) If the Company does not assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim, does not comply with the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.3(c), or is not entitled to assume such defense, then the Claimant will be entitled to assume and control such defense.

(iv) If the Company is permitted and has assumed and is maintaining the defense of any such claim or demand as set forth above, then it will have the power and authority to settle or consent to the entry of judgment of such Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Claimant only if (i) the judgment or settlement results solely in the payment by the Company of the full amount of money damages, and (ii) the judgment or settlement includes a full and complete release of the Claimant from any and all liability thereunder. In all other events, the Company will not consent to the entry of judgment or enter into any settlement without the prior written consent of the Claimant.

(b) Except for Losses arising as a result of Actual Fraud or Willful Breach, as to which the limitations of this Section 9.4(b) shall not apply, the Company shall not have any indemnification obligations under Section 9.2(a) in excess of 20% of the Initial Purchase Price.

9.5 Materiality. For purposes of determining the existence of any breach or inaccuracy of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement, or the amount of any Losses in respect thereof, any materiality, Company Material Adverse Effect or SpinCo Material Adverse Effect standard contained therein shall be disregarded.

Article X

TERMINATION

10.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time:

(a) by mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent;

(b) by the Company or Parent, if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to June 30, 2025 (the “Outside Date”); provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(b) shall not be available to any Party whose action or failure to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents has been the primary cause of, or has primarily resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date;

(c) by the Company or Parent, if any Law shall have been promulgated, entered, enforced, enacted or issued and in effect or shall have been deemed to be applicable to the Merger or the other Transactions, including the Distribution, by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction which permanently prohibits, restrains or makes illegal the consummation of the Merger or the other Transactions, and such Law shall have become final and non-appealable; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) shall not be available to any Party whose action or failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents is the primary cause of, or primarily resulted in, the enactment or issuance of any such Law;

(d) by Parent upon written notice to the Company, in the event of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company or SpinCo, such that the conditions specified in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) would not be satisfied at the Closing, and which, (i) with respect to any such breach that is capable of being cured, is not cured by the Company or SpinCo by the earlier of: (x) fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice thereof; or (y) the Outside Date, or (ii) is incapable of being cured prior to the Outside Date; provided, that Parent shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(d) if Parent or Merger Sub is then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement to the extent such breach or breaches would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b);

(e) by the Company upon written notice to Parent, in the event of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement on the part of Parent or Merger Sub such that the conditions specified in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) would not be satisfied at the Closing, and which, (i) with respect to any such breach that is capable of being cured, is not cured by Parent by the earlier of: (x) fifteen (15) days after receipt of written notice thereof; or (y) the Outside Date, or (ii) is incapable of being cured prior to the Outside Date; provided, that the Company shall not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) if the Company or SpinCo is then in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement to the extent such breach or breaches would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b);

(f) by the Company or Parent, if the Company Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained, or by the Parent if the SpinCo Shareholder Approval shall not have been obtained; and

(g) By the Company prior to the Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC, in order to accept a Superior Proposal and enter into, immediately following such termination, a binding and definitive written Contract with respect to such Superior Proposal, provided, that (x) the Company has complied with its covenants and agreements under Section 7.10 and (y) the Company pays the Parent Expense Reimbursement Amount to Parent in accordance with Section 10.3.

10.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no effect, without any Liability on the part of any Party except as set forth in Section 10.3; provided, that no such termination shall relieve any Party of any liability or damages resulting from Actual Fraud or Willful Breach; provided, further, that this Section 10.2, Section 10.3, Section 10.4 and Article XI hereof shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

10.3 Parent Expense Reimbursement Amount.

(a) In the event that this Agreement is terminated (i) by Parent pursuant to Section 10.1(d), or (ii) by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(f) or Section 10.1(g), the Company shall pay to Parent, the Parent Expenses (the “Parent Expenses Reimbursement Amount”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent in writing no later than one (1) Business Day after the date on which Parent delivers to the Company a written invoice for the Parent Expenses. As used herein, “Parent Expenses” means the amount of all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred or paid by Parent and its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, including fees and expenses of law firms, accounting firms, financial advisors, outside experts, third-party services providers, and consultants.

(b) In addition to payment of the Parent Expenses Reimbursement Amount, in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 10.1(g), concurrently with such termination, the Company shall also be obligated to pay Parent a termination fee of $650,000 (the “Parent Termination Fee”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent in writing.

(c) If the Company fails to pay promptly the Parent Expenses Reimbursement Amount or the Parent Termination Fee, as applicable, and in order to obtain such payment, the Parent commences an Action that results in a judgment against the Company for any amount owed thereby under this Section 10.3, the Company shall reimburse Parent for its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) in connection with such Action, together with interest on such amount at a rate equal to (x) the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, plus (y) five percent (5%).

(d) Each of the Parties acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 10.3 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) without these agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) the payment of the Parent Expenses Reimbursement Amount and Parent Termination Fee does not constitute a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

10.4 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in the Separation and Distribution Agreement or this Agreement, including this Section 10.4, and, if applicable, payment of the Parent Expenses Reimbursement Amount pursuant to Section 10.3, all fees and expenses incurred by the Parties shall be borne solely by the Party that has incurred such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

11.5 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any Party may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting Section 11.5(b)) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement. No waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

11.7 Specific Performance.

(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that the failure to perform under this Agreement will cause an actual, immediate and irreparable harm and injury and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, it is agreed that, (i) each of the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by any other Party and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and (ii) prior to the Closing or any termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.1, damages shall be awarded only in a case where a court of competent jurisdiction shall have determined that, notwithstanding the Parties’ intention for specific performance to be the applicable remedy prior to termination or the Closing, such specific performance is not available or otherwise will not be granted as a remedy.

(c) To the extent either party hereto brings any Action to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 11.7, the Outside Date shall automatically be extended by (i) the amount of time during which such Action is pending, plus twenty (20) Business Days, or (ii) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

11.8 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING IN ANY COURT RELATING TO ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT (INCLUDING ANY SCHEDULE OR EXHIBIT HERETO AND THERETO) OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY OF SUCH AGREEMENTS OR THE NEGOTIATION, EXECUTION OR PERFORMANCE OF SUCH AGREEMENTS. NO PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEDURE BASED UPON, OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENTS. NO PARTY WILL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 11.8. NO PARTY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.8 WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

11.9 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by electronic or .pdf transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of any signature page by facsimile, electronic or .pdf transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

The Company Disclosure Schedule, the SpinCo Disclosure Schedule and the Parent Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Disclosure Schedule” and, collectively, the “Disclosure Schedules”) (including, in each case, any section thereof) referenced herein are a part of this Agreement as if fully set forth herein. All references herein to the Company Disclosure Schedule, SpinCo Disclosure Schedule and Parent Disclosure Schedule (including, in each case, any section thereof) shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement, unless the context shall otherwise require. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Schedules is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement.
