WHEREAS, on February 18, 2009 (the “Filing Date”), Seller Parent and the Other Sellers have filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (Jointly Administered Case No. 09-10691-reg) (the “Chapter 11 Case”);

WHEREAS, the Parties contemplate that the Acquired Assets will be sold, transferred, conveyed and assigned to Buyer pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 363 and 365 as set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the Approval Order entered in the Chapter 11 Case;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and undertakings herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 1.1(a), the Acquired Assets shall not include the Excluded Assets.

1.2 Assumption of Liabilities.

(a) Upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Buyer shall assume and become responsible from and after the Closing for the Assumed Liabilities. The assumption of the Assumed Liabilities by Buyer shall not enlarge any rights of third parties under Contracts or arrangements with Buyer or Sellers and nothing herein shall prevent any party from contesting in good faith with any third party any Assumed Liability.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 1.2(a) or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall not assume or otherwise become responsible or liable for, and Sellers shall remain liable for, any and all Retained Liabilities.

If Buyer does not choose to include an Unlisted Contract or Additional Related Contract on Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A pursuant to this clause (ii), then such Unlisted Contract or Additional Related Contract shall be retained by Sellers as an Excluded Asset.

(d) Removal of Contracts from Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A. From the date hereof until five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, Buyer shall have the right, upon written notice to Seller Parent, but without any effect on the Purchase Price, (x) to remove any Customer Contract or Related Contract from Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A (whether such Assigned Customer Contract or Assigned Related Contract was listed on Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A on or after the date hereof) for any of the reasons listed below, (y) in the event that any Customer Contract is removed pursuant to the foregoing clause (x), to remove any Related Contract related to such Customer Contract from such Schedule and (z) in the event that any Related Contract is removed pursuant such clause (x), to remove any related Customer Contract from such Schedule:

(i) such Customer Contract or Related Contract has outstanding Cure Costs that are not satisfied at or prior to the Closing pursuant to Section 1.5(j);

(iii) (A) Buyer determines that any employee specifically named by the terms of such Customer Contract to perform the obligations and provide the services under such Customer Contract is not reasonably expected to accept employment with the Buyer as of the Closing Date after Buyer has made an offer of employment to such employee pursuant to Section 4.5(b) or (B) Buyer determines that, in light of the number of other Business Employees and/or employees of the GDC China Subsidiary or the GDC India Subsidiary who are not reasonably expected to accept employment with Buyer or an Affiliate, the ability of Buyer to perform such obligations and provide such services in accordance with the requirements of such Customer Contract would be materially impaired;

(iv) Buyer determines that the services to be provided or the expected revenues to be collected pursuant to such Customer Contract have been substantially completed or collected;

(v) the applicable Seller to which such Customer Contract or Related Contract relates has received notice or otherwise has become aware that the counterparty to such Customer Contract or Related Contract has provided notice of termination, or has indicated it is or will be terminating such Customer Contract or Related Contract prior to the Closing;

representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.7 (Contracts) or Section 2.13 (Accounts Receivable; Backlog; Deferred Revenue) are not true and correct in any material respect in relation to such Customer Contract or Related Contract at Closing, or any of the information provided by Sellers in the Data Room or otherwise to Buyer with respect to such Customer Contract or Related Contract is inaccurate or misleading in any material respect (with “materiality” for the purpose of this clause (B) being determined solely in respect of the value of such individual Customer Contract or Related Contract and without giving effect to any materiality qualifiers contained in the afore-numerated representations and warranties); or

(ix) Buyer determines it is in its best interest not to acquire any Related Contract.

Prior to Closing, Buyer shall indicate in writing to Seller Parent the specific sub-section(s) of this Section 1.5(d) pursuant to which Buyer has removed any Customer Contract from the list of Assigned Customer Contracts or has removed any Related Contract from the list of Assigned Related Contracts. Any Customer Contract removed from the list of Assigned Customer Contracts on Schedule 1.1(a) pursuant to this Section 1.5(d) shall immediately be deemed an Excluded Customer Contract, and any Related Contract removed from the list of Assigned Related Contracts on Schedule 1.1(a) pursuant to this Section 1.5(d) shall immediately be deemed an Excluded Related Contract. Schedule 1.1(a) and Schedule 1.1(b) shall be amended to reflect any changes made in accordance with this Section 1.5(d).

(e) Prohibited Contracts. If Buyer determines, from the date hereof until five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, that any Assigned Customer Contract may be, or may become, a Prohibited Customer Contract or that any Assigned Related Contract may be, or may become, a Prohibited Related Contract, it shall give notice of such determination to Seller Parent and shall promptly thereafter use its Reasonable Best Efforts to determine whether such Contract is in fact a Prohibited Customer Contract or Prohibited Related Contract.

From the Approval Date until five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing, Buyer shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to (i) review all Customer Contracts and Related Contracts listed on Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A and Schedule 1.1(b) as promptly as practicable after the Approval Date for the purpose of determining whether any addition or removal should be made pursuant to Section 1.5(d) or (e) and (ii) notify Seller Parent in writing as promptly as practicable after making any such determination.

(g) Substitute Purchasers. Prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to direct Sellers in writing to assign at the Closing any Customer Contract(s) and any Related Contract(s) relating to such Customer Contract(s) to one or more Substitute Purchasers subject to the delivery to Sellers of each such Substitute Purchaser’s adequate assurance of

performance of the Customer Contract(s) and/or Related Contract(s) to be acquired by it. If so requested by Buyer, Sellers shall also assign to any such Substitute Purchaser any Acquired Receivables and/or Acquired WIP relating to any such Customer Contract and shall negotiate in good faith a Transition Services Agreement, for which Sellers shall be entitled to reasonable compensation, and/or Cross License Agreement with such Substitute Purchaser comparable to the Transition Services Agreement and Cross License Agreement to be executed and delivered by Sellers and Buyer hereunder to the extent that the rights and services provided for thereunder are required for such Substitute Purchaser to perform such assigned Customer Contract(s) and/or Related Contract(s). In the event that Buyer designates any Substitute Purchaser to acquire any Customer Contract(s) and/or Related Contract(s) hereunder, unless the context requires otherwise, any reference to Buyer in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a reference to Buyer and/or such Substitute Purchaser, as applicable.

(h) Further Assurance. At the Closing, any Customer Contract not specifically set forth on Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A shall not be an Assigned Customer Contract, and any Related Contract not specifically set forth on Schedule 1.1(a) — Part A shall not be an Assigned Related Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, subsequent to the Closing, Buyer determines that (i) one or more Customer Contracts existed on or prior to the Closing Date, the existence of which were not disclosed to Buyer prior to the Closing and (ii) such Customer Contracts have not terminated and have not been transferred to, or subject to a binding agreement for a transfer to, a third party, then, upon the request of Buyer, Sellers shall (x) cooperate in good faith with Buyer to transfer such Customer Contracts to Buyer (or a Substitute Purchaser) without additional consideration and (y) permit Buyer (or such Substitute Purchaser) to make offers of employment to those employees of the Sellers who provide services in connection with such Customer Contracts.

(i) Assignment and Assumption pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. At the Closing, each Seller that is a party to an Assigned Contract shall assume and assign such Assigned Contract to Buyer pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

(j) Cure Costs. At least two (2) days prior to the Closing, Sellers shall deliver Schedule 1.5(j), which shall set forth all Cure Costs known to Sellers as of such date. Subject to Section 4.3(f), Sellers shall be responsible and liable for, and shall pay or cause to be paid on or before the Closing, all Cure Costs.

(k) No Adjustment to Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, no change to any Schedule pursuant to this Section 1.5 shall result in a adjustment to the Purchase Price (except with respect to any Cure Costs related to any Assigned Related Contracts).

1.6 Absolute Sale. Subject to the Approval Order, Sellers’ sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment and delivery of the Acquired Assets to Buyer shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and other interests, including Security Interests, of any kind or character, except for the Assumed Liabilities, and at the Closing, Buyer will become the true and lawful owner of, and will receive good title to, or (in the case of Acquired Assets that are licensed to Buyer) valid rights to use, the Acquired Assets, free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and other interests, including Security Interests, of any kind or character other than as created by Buyer.

1.7 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time upon or after the Closing, at the request of Buyer and without further consideration, Sellers shall execute and deliver or cause their applicable Affiliates to execute and deliver such other instruments of sale, transfer, conveyance and assignment and take such actions as Buyer may reasonably request to effectively transfer, convey and assign to Buyer on the terms set forth in this Agreement, and to confirm Buyer’s rights to, title in and ownership of, the Acquired Assets pursuant to this Agreement, and to place Buyer in actual possession and operating control of the Acquired Assets, including requesting third parties to consent to transfer or assignment or to execute releases.

1.8 Good Faith Deposit.

(a) In accordance with the Bidding Procedures, Buyer has delivered to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Deposit Escrow Agent”) cash in the amount of One Million Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000) as an ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ money deposit (the “Deposit”), to be held in escrow pursuant to the terms and conditions of a customary escrow agreement which shall provide for a release of the Deposit as provided in this Section 1.8.

(b) If the Closing occurs, Sellers and Buyer shall jointly instruct the Deposit Escrow Agent to release the Deposit to Sellers at the Closing as partial payment of the Cash Purchase Price.

(c) If the Closing does not occur and (i) this Agreement is terminated by Sellers pursuant to Section 7.1(c) hereto, (ii) Sellers file a suit for damages against Buyer in a court of competent jurisdiction not later than thirty (30) days after such termination of this Agreement and (iii) a final, non-appealable order is issued by a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to the amount of damages for which Buyer is liable for such material breach (the “Adjudicated Damages”), (x) Sellers shall be entitled to instruct the Deposit Escrow Agent to release such portion of the Deposit in an amount equal to the Adjudicated Damages to Sellers and (y) Buyer shall be entitled to instruct the Deposit Escrow Agent to release to Buyer the remainder of the Deposit, if any, in each case, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the Deposit Escrow Agent’s receipt of such instructions; provided that in the event the claim for damages submitted to a court of competent jurisdiction by Sellers is less than One Million Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000), then Buyer shall be entitled to instruct the Deposit Escrow Agent to release to Buyer that portion of the Deposit that exceeds the damages claimed by Sellers as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the Deposit Escrow Agent’s receipt of such instructions.

(d) If the Closing does not occur and (i) this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than pursuant to Section 7.1(c) hereto or (ii) Sellers do not file suit for damages against Buyer in a court of competent jurisdiction on or before thirty (30) days after termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(c) hereto, Buyer shall be entitled to instruct the Deposit Escrow Agent to release the Deposit, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days following the Deposit Escrow Agent’s receipt of such instructions, to Buyer.

(e) Pending its release pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.8, the Deposit shall be held by the Deposit Escrow Agent in an interest bearing escrow account. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any interest which has accrued with respect to the Deposit shall be released to the Buyer from time to time in accordance with Buyer’s instructions to the Deposit Escrow Agent.

(f) Sellers and Buyer agree to prepare, execute and deliver such written instructions as the other party or the Deposit Escrow Agent may reasonably request to ensure that the Deposit is released in accordance with this Section 1.8.

(g) Nothing in this Section 1.8 shall be deemed to constitute a limitation on damages or limit any remedies otherwise available to any Seller.

The Termination Fee provided for by this Section 4.11(a) is intended to cover opportunity costs incurred by Buyer in pursuing and negotiating this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and is considered by the Parties to be reasonable for such purposes. The claims of Buyer to the Termination Fee shall constitute a first priority administrative expense against Sellers’ bankruptcy estates, jointly and severally, under 11 U.S.C. § 507(a)(1).

(b) In addition to any Termination Fee that may be payable pursuant to Section 4.11(a), upon (i) any event in which the Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 4.11(a) or (ii) termination of this Agreement by (x) Sellers pursuant to Section 7.1(e) (unless the failure of any condition precedent results primarily from a breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement), or (y) Buyer pursuant to Section 7.1(b), 7.1(d), 7.1(g) or 7.1(h), Sellers shall reimburse up to $500,000 of the actual and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Buyer, if any, and its Affiliates, in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, whether incurred before, on or after the Filing Date (the “Expense Reimbursement”).

From and after the Closing, no Seller shall disclose or make use of (except to pursue its rights under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements), and each Seller shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to cause all of its Subsidiaries not to disclose or make use of, any knowledge, information or documents of a confidential nature or not generally known to the public which are included in the Acquired Assets (including any such information which constitutes financial information, technical information or data relating to products, services and names of customers), except to the extent that such knowledge, information or documents shall have become public knowledge other than through improper disclosure by any Seller or any of its Subsidiaries. For a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, each Seller shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to enforce and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use their Reasonable Best Efforts to enforce, for the benefit of Buyer, all confidentiality, invention assignments and similar agreements that are not Assigned Contracts between such Seller or Subsidiary and any other Person relating to the Acquired Assets; provided, that such

enforcement does not adversely affect Sellers’ rights in such agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall in any way restrict the use of Residuals by Sellers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives.

6.2 Solicitation and Hiring; Termination. For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, no Seller shall, either directly or indirectly (including through a Subsidiary), and each Seller shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to cause all of its Subsidiaries not to, either directly or indirectly (including through a Subsidiary): (a) solicit or attempt to induce any Released Employee to terminate his or her employment with Buyer, (b) hire or attempt to hire any Released Employee (provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to any individual whose employment with Buyer has been terminated for a period of six (6) months or longer) or (c) persuade or seek to persuade any party to an Assigned Contract to cease to do business or reduce the amount of business under such Assigned Contract.

6.3 Tax Matters.

(a) All transfer taxes, deed excise stamps and similar charges related to the sale of the Acquired Assets contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Sellers at the Closing. Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in providing each other with any appropriate resale exemption and other similar documentation.

(b) All real property taxes, personal property taxes and similar ad valorem obligations levied with respect to the Acquired Assets for a taxable period which includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (collectively, the “Apportioned Obligations”) shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer based on the number of days of such taxable period included in the Pre-Closing Tax Period (as defined below) and the number of days of such taxable period after the Closing Date (any such portion of such taxable period, the “Post-Closing Tax Period”). Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period (defined below), and Buyer shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period. For purposes of this section “Pre-Closing Tax Period” shall mean (i) any Tax Period ending on or before the Closing Date and (ii) with respect to a Tax Period that commences before but ends after the Closing Date, the portion of such period up to and including the Closing Date. All Apportioned Obligations shall be timely paid and all applicable filings, reports and returns shall be filed as required by applicable Law.

(c) For U.S. Tax purposes, in the case of any service obligations that have been prepaid but are uncompleted as of the date such Assigned Contract is assigned and assumed

by Buyer, “Assumed Liabilities” shall be limited to the cost incurred by Buyer to perform the uncompleted service obligations.

(d) No less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers an allocation schedule allocating for Tax purposes the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities, including the principles, methodology and preliminary estimates used in connection therewith which are reasonably acceptable to Sellers, among the Acquired Assets (the “Preliminary Allocation Schedule”). As soon as practicable after the Closing, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers an allocation schedule allocating for Tax purposes the Purchase Price and the Assumed Liabilities (to the extent properly taken into account under Section 1060 of the Code) among the Acquired Assets (the “Allocation Schedule”). The Allocation Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with (i) the rules under Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and any comparable provisions of Law relating to Taxes and (ii) the principles, methodology and preliminary estimates used in creating the Preliminary Allocation Schedule. Sellers shall deliver to Buyer, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Allocation Schedule, either a notice indicating that Sellers accept such schedule or a statement setting forth Seller’s objections to such schedule and the reasons for so objecting. Buyer and Sellers shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to resolve such objections. If Sellers deliver to Buyer a notice accepting the Allocation Schedule, fail to deliver a notice objecting to the Allocation Schedule or Buyer and Sellers resolve the Sellers’ objections, Buyer and Sellers agree (i) to be bound by the Allocation Schedule and (ii) to act in accordance with the allocations contained in the Allocation Schedule (as accepted by Buyer and Sellers after the resolution of any timely objections by Sellers) for all purposes relating to Taxes, including the preparation, filing and audit of any Tax return (including filing Form 8594 with its federal Income Tax return for the taxable year that includes the date of the Closing). If Buyer and Sellers are unable to resolve Sellers’ objections within thirty (30) days after delivery of Sellers’ objections to Buyer, Buyer and Seller shall jointly retain a nationally recognized accounting firm that is independent from both Buyer and Sellers and does not have any material relationships with either Buyer or Sellers (the “Accounting Referee”) to resolve the disputed items. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the allocation reflected on the Allocation Schedule shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Referee shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller.

Buyer shall have the right for a period of not more than seven (7) years following the Closing Date to have reasonable access to those books, records and accounts, including financial, Tax and accounting records (including the work papers of Sellers’

independent accountants), correspondence, production records, employment records and other records that are retained by Sellers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to the extent that any of the foregoing is needed by Buyer with respect to the Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities after the Closing and complying with its obligations under applicable Law. Neither Buyer, nor any Seller shall destroy, or otherwise cease to retain, any such books, records or accounts retained by it without first providing the other Parties with thirty (30) days prior written notice and the opportunity to obtain or copy such books, records, or accounts during such thirty (30)-day period at such other Party’s expense. Sellers shall, at their sole expense, undertake any and all measures required by applicable Law in connection with the delivery to Buyer of data pursuant to this paragraph, including measures relating to the use, disclosure and processing of personally identifiable information.

(b) Promptly upon request by Buyer made at any time following the Closing Date, each Seller shall authorize the release to Buyer of all files pertaining to the Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities held by any federal, state, county or local authorities, agencies or instrumentalities.

6.5 Cooperation in Legal Proceedings. From and after the Closing Date, each Party shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to cooperate with each other Party in the defense or prosecution of any Legal Proceeding already instituted or that may be instituted hereafter against or by such other Party relating to or arising out of the conduct of the Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities prior to or after the Closing Date (other than litigation among the Parties and/or their Affiliates arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); it being understood that the foregoing shall not require any Seller to retain or hire any employees. The Party requesting such cooperation shall pay the reasonable expenses incurred in providing such cooperation (including legal fees and disbursements and expenses for professional personnel of the Party or Parties providing such cooperation based upon such Party’s customary cost rates for internal projects) by the Party or Parties providing such cooperation and by each such Party’s officers, directors, employees and agents.

6.6 Collection of Acquired Receivables, Etc.

(a) Each Seller, to the extent that it directly or indirectly owned any Acquired Assets prior to the Closing, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints, effective as of the Closing, the Buyer and assigns Buyer as true and lawful attorney of such Seller and its Subsidiaries with full power of substitution to collect for the account of Buyer any Acquired Asset, including to endorse and cash any checks or instruments payable or endorsed to such Seller or its order that are received by Buyer and that relate to the Acquired Receivables or Acquired WIP.

such payments, reimbursements, monies or checks over to Buyer without right of setoff, recoupment, or any other deduction.

(c) All payments and reimbursements received by Buyer or any of its Affiliates in connection with or arising out of the Excluded Assets or Retained Liabilities after the Closing shall be held by such Person in trust for the benefit of the applicable Seller and shall not be or become property of such Person, of Buyer, or any Affiliate of Buyer, and, promptly upon receipt by such Person of any such payment or reimbursement, such Person shall pay over to the applicable Seller the amount of such payment or reimbursement without right of setoff, recoupment, or any other deduction.

(d) Each Seller shall, and shall use its Reasonable Best Efforts to cause its Affiliates to, refer all inquiries regarding the Acquired Assets or Assumed Liabilities to Buyer.

(e) Until such time as all Acquired Receivables and Acquired WIP are fully collected, realized and recognized by Buyer, each Seller shall provide to Buyer such reasonable assistance as Buyer may request with respect to the collection of any such Acquired Receivables or Acquired WIP; provided, that Buyer pays the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Seller and its officers, directors and employees incurred in providing such assistance.

6.7 COBRA Continuation Coverage. Sellers agree and acknowledge that the selling group (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-3(a)) of which it is a part or an entity that purchases more than a majority of the assets of the Sellers (the “Selling Group”) will continue to offer or otherwise ensure access to coverage under a U.S. group health plan to COBRA Beneficiaries after the Closing Date and for any period necessary in order to fulfill all COBRA Related Liabilities and its health care continuation coverage obligations under this Section 6.7. Sellers and the Selling Group shall be solely responsible for providing COBRA Continuation Coverage, including to those individuals who are M&A qualified beneficiaries (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A-4(a)) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with applicable Law, regardless of when their qualifying event occurs, for the duration of the period during which such individuals are eligible for such coverage, or otherwise providing alternative coverage as permitted under applicable Law in lieu of such COBRA Continuation Coverage. Sellers shall use Reasonable Best Efforts to ensure none of Buyer, any Member Firm or any Affiliate of Buyer or a Member Firm, nor their respective employee benefits plans are required to provide such COBRA Continuation Coverage or any alternative coverage, nor have any liability under COBRA, arising before the Closing Date, with respect to any COBRA Beneficiary (other than any New Buyer Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) subsequently covered or required to be covered under a U.S. group health plan maintained by Buyer). Nothing in this Section 6.7 shall restrict Seller from taking any action with respect to its U.S. group health plans, subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the Bankruptcy Rules, and the obligations set forth in this Section 6.7.

6.8 Employee Liability Claims.

(a) As between Buyer, on the one hand, and Sellers and ERISA Affiliates, on the other, Sellers and any ERISA Affiliate shall assume or retain, as the case may be, and be

solely responsible for all of the following from and after the Closing (“Employee Excluded Liabilities”):

(i) Employment Liabilities, including payments or entitlements that a Seller may owe or have promised to pay to any current or former Business Employees, including wages, other remuneration, holiday or vacation pay, bonus, severance pay (statutory or otherwise), commission, post-employment medical or life obligations, pension contributions, Taxes, and any other liability, payment or obligations related to current or former Business Employees, including any liability arising under the WARN Act (other than any WARN Act liability of Buyer to any New Buyer Employee arising from or relating to Buyer’s termination of the employment of any New Buyer Employee in a manner contrary to the last sentence of Section 6.2), workers compensation or similar Law, if any, including any such liabilities arising out of or resulting in connection with the Closing and/or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than with respect to such liabilities to New Buyer Employees arising after the Closing, with respect to New Buyer Employees who are terminated by Buyer and with respect to which the liabilities are incurred under the Buyer’s plans and arrangements. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing is not intended to abrogate Buyer’s obligations hereunder to assume the New Buyer Employee Liabilities;

(ii) all payments with respect to the current or former Business Employees that are due to be paid prior to or on the Closing Date (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, pension contributions, insurance premiums and taxation) to any Person in connection with the employment of any of the current or former Business Employees; and

(iii) any non-forfeitable claims or expectancies of any current or former Business Employees from their prior employment with a Seller or any ERISA Affiliate which have been incurred or accrued on or prior to the Closing Date.

(b) All costs, disbursements and other liabilities incurred in connection with the termination of any employment of any Business Employee whether or not becoming a New Buyer Employee prior to or in connection with the Closing, whether under any policy or agreement or any applicable Law (including any Designated Employee who does not accept an offer of employment with Buyer) shall be borne by Sellers except to the extent constituting New Buyer Employee Liabilities.

6.9 Employee Withholding. Seller shall prepare and furnish to each of the New Buyer Employees a Form W-2, which shall reflect all wages and compensation paid to the New Buyer Employees for that portion of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs during which the New Buyer Employees were employed by Sellers and were employed in connection with the operation of the Acquired Assets. Sellers shall furnish to Buyer the Forms W-4 and W-5 of each New Buyer Employee. Buyer shall send to the appropriate Social Security Administration office a duly completed Form W-3 and accompanying copies of the duly completed Forms W-2. It is the intent of the Parties hereunder that the obligations of Buyer and Sellers under this Section 6.9 shall be carried out in accordance with Section 4 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53.

6.10 Letters of Credit. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Buyer agrees to use Reasonable Best Efforts to cause the counterparty to any Assigned Contract that is supported by an outstanding letter of credit (each a “Relevant LC”) to release and terminate the Relevant LC. If such counterparty releases and terminates a Relevant LC, Buyer may replace such Relevant LC or instead obtain a back-to-back letter of credit acceptable to the current issuing bank naming the current issuing bank as beneficiary with respect to such Relevant LC (a “Back-to-Back Letter of Credit”). If no Back-to-Back Letter of Credit has been issued with respect to an outstanding Relevant LC and amounts (solely related to the corresponding Assigned Contract) are drawn under such outstanding Relevant LC after the Closing Date, Buyer shall reimburse the issuer of such Relevant LC for any such amounts pursuant to the terms of such Relevant LC, solely to the extent that Seller would be obligated to reimburse or pay such amounts pursuant to the terms of the Relevant LC documents, and Buyer shall be subrogated to all rights of such issuer and Seller in respect of any such amounts, provided, that Buyer shall have no right of reimbursement or other recourse that the issuer has against any letter of credit lender in respect of such amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if amounts are drawn under a Relevant LC prior to the Closing Date and Buyer is refunded any amounts in respect of such drawing, Buyer agrees to promptly turn over such amounts to Seller and such amounts shall not be applied to satisfy obligations of Buyer under the Assigned Contracts arising after the Closing Date.
