Section 2.03. MMC Board Action; Conditions Precedent to the Distribution. MMC’s Board of Directors shall, in its sole discretion, establish the Record Date and the Distribution Date and any appropriate procedures in connection with the Distribution; provided, however, in no event shall the Distribution occur unless the following conditions shall have been satisfied or shall have been waived by MMC’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion:

(a) all material regulatory approvals necessary to consummate the Distribution shall have been received and be in full force and effect;

(b) the IPO Registration Statement shall have become effective under the Securities Act, and no stop order or similar Commission proceeding shall be in effect with respect to such IPO Registration Statement;

(c) a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service that, among other things, the Contribution and the Distribution, taken together, will not be taxable to the shareholders of MMC pursuant to Section 355 of the Code, shall continue in effect, and such ruling shall be in form and substance satisfactory to MMC in its sole discretion;

(e) MMC’s Board of Directors shall have formally approved the Distribution,

provided, however, that satisfaction of such conditions shall not create any obligation on the part of MMC, the Company or any other person to effect or seek to effect the Distribution or in any way limit MMC’s right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 8.01 or alter the consequences of any such termination from those set forth in Section 8.02.

Section 2.04. The Distribution. On or before the Distribution Date, subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, MMC shall deliver certificates representing all of the then outstanding shares of Company Common Stock held by MMC other than the shares of Company Common Stock to be delivered to the Debt-for-Equity Exchange Parties, endorsed in blank, and shall instruct the Distribution Agent to distribute, or make book-entry credits for, [—] shares of Company Common Stock in respect of every one share of MMC Class A Common Stock or MMC Class B Common Stock held by holders of record of

MMC Class A Common Stock and MMC Class B Common Stock on the Record Date. The Company agrees to provide all certificates for shares of Company Common Stock and any information relating to the Company that the Distribution Agent shall require in order to effect the Distribution.

Section 2.05. Transfers Not Effected on or Prior to the Contribution Date; Transfers Deemed Effective as of the Effective Date. To the extent that any transfers of Assets (including the capital stock or equity interests of any transferred entity) or assumptions of Liabilities contemplated by this Article II shall not have been consummated on, at or prior to the Contribution Date because a condition precedent to any such transfer had not been satisfied or any relevant fact related thereto had not been realized, the parties shall cooperate to effect such transfers or assumptions, as the case may be, as promptly following the Effective Date as shall be practicable. In the event that any transfer of Assets or assumption of Liabilities contemplated by this Agreement has not been consummated at or prior to the Contribution Date, then from and after the Contribution Date (i) the party (or relevant member in its Group) retaining such Asset shall thereafter hold (or shall cause such member in its Group to hold) such Asset for the use and benefit of the party (or relevant member in its Group) entitled thereto (at the expense of the Person entitled thereto) and (ii) the party intended to assume such Liability shall, or shall cause the applicable member of its Group to, pay or reimburse the party (or the relevant member of its Group) retaining such Liability for all amounts paid or incurred in connection with the retention of such Liability. In addition, the party retaining such Asset or Liability (or relevant member of its Group) shall (or shall cause such member in its Group to) treat, insofar as reasonably possible and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, such Asset or Liability in the ordinary course of business in accordance with past practice and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the party to which such Asset or Liability is to be transferred or assumed in order to place such party, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Asset or Liability had been transferred or assumed on or prior to the Contribution Date as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Asset or Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Asset or Liability, are to inure from and after the Contribution Date to the relevant member of the MMC Group or the Company Group, as the case may be, entitled to the receipt of such Asset or Liability. In furtherance of the foregoing, the parties agree that, as of the Effective Date, each party shall be deemed to have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the Assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such party is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or, as applicable, an Ancillary Agreement.

Company and any Person in the Company Group, on the one hand, and MMC and any Person in the MMC Group, on the other hand, effective as of the Effective Date. No such terminated agreement, arrangement, commitment, understanding or Intercompany Account (including any provision thereof which purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Effective Date. Each party shall, at the reasonable request of any other party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing.

(b) The provisions of Section 2.06(a) shall not apply to any of the following agreements, arrangements, commitments, understandings or Intercompany Accounts (or to any of the provisions thereof): (i) this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (and each other agreement or instrument expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be entered into by any of the parties hereto or any Person in their respective Groups); (ii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings set forth or described on Schedule 2.06(b); (iii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings to which any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates is a party; and (iv) any other agreements, arrangements, commitments, understandings or Intercompany Accounts that this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement expressly contemplates will survive the Effective Date.

Section 2.07. Bank Accounts; Cash Balances.

(a) To the extent not completed prior to the Effective Date, MMC and the Company each agrees to take, or cause the respective members of their respective Groups to take, at or prior to the Effective Date, all actions necessary to amend all Contracts governing each bank and brokerage account owned by the Company or any other member of the Company Group (collectively, the “Company Accounts”) so that such Company Accounts, if linked (whether by automatic withdrawal, automatic deposit or any other authorization to transfer funds from or to, hereinafter “linked”) to any bank or brokerage account owned by MMC or any other member of the MMC Group (collectively, the “MMC Accounts”) are de-linked from the MMC Accounts.

(b) It is intended that, following consummation of the actions contemplated by Section 2.07(a), the Company and MMC will maintain separate bank accounts and separate cash management processes.

(c) With respect to any outstanding checks issued by MMC, the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Date, such outstanding checks shall be honored following the Effective Date by the Person or Group owning the account on which the check is drawn.

(d) Except as provided in Section 2.09, as between MMC and the Company (and the members of their respective Groups), all payments made and reimbursements received after the Effective Date by either party (or member of its Group) that relate to a business, Asset or Liability of the other party (or member of its Group), shall be held by such party in trust for the use and benefit of the party entitled thereto and, promptly upon receipt by such party of any such payment or reimbursement, such party shall pay over, or shall cause the applicable member of its Group to pay over to the other party the amount of such payment or reimbursement without right of set-off.

Section 2.08. Other Ancillary Agreements. Each of MMC and the Company will execute and deliver, and cause each of their applicable Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, as applicable, all Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party.

Section 2.09. Insurance Policies.

(a) On or before the Effective Date, the directors and officers of the Company and its Affiliates shall become insureds under a separate directors’ and officers’ insurance program to be established by the Company at its expense. Effective from and after the date at which the Company is no longer eligible to be covered under the policies of MMC and its affiliates (the “Coverage End Date”), the Company shall arrange for its own insurance policies with respect to the MMREIS Business, except as set forth in the Transition Service Agreement.

(b) Where Shared Policies with an unaffiliated third party insurer (and excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any self-insurance, captive insurance or similar program) cover MMREIS Liabilities reported after the Effective Date and before the Coverage End Date, with respect to an occurrence prior to the Coverage End Date, under an occurrence-based or claims-made policy (collectively, “Covered Claims”), then the members of the Company Group may claim coverage for such Covered Claims under such Shared Policies, control the prosecution and defense of such Covered Claims and receive any insurance recoverables with respect thereto, without any prejudice or limitation to MMC seeking insurance under the Shared Policies for its own claims. After the Effective Date, MMC shall procure and administer the Shared Policies, provided that such administration shall in no way limit, inhibit or preclude the right of the members of the Company Group to insurance coverage thereunder in accordance with this Section 2.09(b), in each case, with respect to Covered Claims. The Company shall promptly notify MMC of any Covered Claims, and MMC agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Company concerning the pursuit by the Company of any such Covered Claim, in each case at the expense of the Company (to the extent such expenses are not covered by the applicable Shared Policies).

(c) The Company shall be responsible for complying with terms of the Shared Policies to obtain coverage for such Covered Claims, including if the Shared Policy requires any payments to be made in connection therewith (including self-insured retentions or deductibles), and the Company shall make any such required payments and maintain any required or appropriate accruals or reserves for such Covered Claims. Any proceeds received by MMC from any insurance carrier that relate to Covered Claims shall be paid promptly to the Company. In the event that Covered Claims relate to the same occurrence for which MMC is seeking coverage under such Shared Policies and for which the parties have a shared defense, the Company and MMC shall jointly defend any such claim and waive any conflict of interest necessary to conduct a joint defense, and shall bear any expenses in connection therewith equally (to the extent such expenses are not covered by the applicable Shared Policies), including self-insured retentions or deductibles. In the event that policy limits under an applicable Shared Policy are not sufficient to fund all claims of MMC and members of the MMC Group and the Company and members of the Company Group, amounts due under such Shared Policy shall be paid on a first come first served basis, and any amounts simultaneously due shall be paid to the respective entities in proportion to the assessed value of each respective entity’s claim or claims.

(iv) any Liability that the parties may have with respect to claim for indemnification, recovery or contribution brought pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, which Liability shall be governed by the provisions of this Article IV or, if applicable, the appropriate provisions of the Ancillary Agreements; or

(v) any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than a Person released pursuant to this Section 4.01.

In addition, nothing contained in Section 4.01(a) shall release MMC from indemnifying any director, officer or employee of the Company or MMREIS who was a director, officer or employee of MMC or any of its Affiliates on or prior to the Effective Date, to the extent such director, officer or employee is or becomes a named defendant in any Action with respect to which he or she was entitled to such indemnification pursuant to obligations existing prior to the Effective Date, it being understood that if the underlying obligation giving rise to such Action is an MMREIS Liability, the Company shall indemnify MMC for such Liability (including MMC’s costs to indemnify the director, officer or employee) in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article IV.

(d) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Person in the Company Group, to make any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution, recovery or any indemnification, against MMC or any Person in the MMC Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 4.01(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 4.01(a).

Company Group, on the one hand, and MMC or any Person in the MMC Group, on the other hand (including any contractual agreements or arrangements existing or alleged to exist between or among any such Persons on or before the Effective Date), except as expressly set forth in Section 4.01(c). At any time, at the request of any other party, each party shall cause each Person in its respective Group and to the extent practicable each other Person to execute and deliver releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

(f) If any Person associated with either MMC or the Company (including any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees) initiates an Action with respect to claims released by this Section 4.01, the party with which such Person is associated shall indemnify the other party against such Action in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Article IV.

Section 4.02. Indemnification by the Company. Except as provided in Section 4.04, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the MMC Group and each of their Affiliates and each member of the MMC Group’s and their respective Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “MMC Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses of the MMC Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication and including any such Losses arising by way of setoff, counterclaim or defense or enforcement of any Lien):

(i) all MMREIS Liabilities;

(ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, with respect to all information contained in any Disclosure Document with respect to the IPO other than any such statement or omission in the Disclosure Document furnished by MMC solely in respect of MMC expressly for use in the Disclosure Document; and

(iii) any breach by the Company or any Person in the Company Group of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case, any such indemnification claims may be made thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any MMC Indemnitee have the right to seek indemnification from any Person in the Company Group with respect to any claim or demand against any Person in the MMC Group for the satisfaction of the Excluded Liabilities.

Section 4.03. Indemnification by MMC. Except as provided in Section 4.04, MMC shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the Company Group and each of their Affiliates and each member of the Company Group’s and their respective Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Company Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses of the Company Indemnitees relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items (without duplication and including any Losses arising by way of setoff, counterclaim or defense or enforcement of any Lien):

(i) all Excluded Liabilities; and

(ii) any breach by MMC or any Person in the MMC Group of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case, any such indemnification claims may be made thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any Company Indemnitee have the right to seek indemnification from any Person in the MMC Group with respect to any claim or demand against any Person in the Company Group for the satisfaction of the MMREIS Liabilities.

Section 4.04. Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.

(a) The parties intend that any Loss subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Article IV will be net of Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of the Loss. Accordingly, the amount which any party (an “Indemnifying Party”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnitee”) will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss. If an Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Loss and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds, then the Indemnitee will pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made.

(b) An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to a “wind-fall” (i.e., a benefit such insurer or other third party would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement shall obligate any Person in any Group to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds.

(c) Any Indemnity Payment made by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after making all payments in respect to Taxes imposed on or attributable to such Indemnity Payment, each MMC Indemnitee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Taxes been imposed. Any Indemnity Payment made by MMC shall be increased as necessary so that after making all payments in respect to Taxes imposed on or attributable to such Indemnity Payment, each Company Indemnitee receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such Taxes been imposed.

(d) If an indemnification claim is covered by the indemnification provisions of an Ancillary Agreement, the claim shall be made under the Ancillary Agreement to the extent applicable and the provisions thereof shall govern such claim. In no event shall any party be entitled to double recovery from the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 4.05. Procedures for Indemnification of Third Party Claims.

(a) If an Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a Person in the MMC Group or the Company Group of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.02 or Section 4.03, or any other Section of this Agreement (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as promptly as practicable (and in any event within forty-five (45) days) after becoming aware of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 4.05(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV, except to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

(b) An Indemnifying Party may elect (but shall not be required) to defend, at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel (which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee), any Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to defend and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees if the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal action, indictment or allegation. Within forty-five (45) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 4.05(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its election whether the Indemnifying Party will assume responsibility for defending such Third Party Claim, which election shall specify any reservations or exceptions to its defense. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnitee; provided, however, in the event that (i) the Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim but has specified, and continues to assert, any reservations or exceptions in such notice or (ii) the Third Party Claim involves injunctive or equitable relief, then, in any such case, the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for all Indemnitees shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.

(c) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in Section 4.05(b), such Indemnitee may defend such Third Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party. Any legal fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with defending such claim shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party at the then applicable regular rates charged by counsel, without regard to any flat fee or special fee arrangement otherwise in effect between such counsel and the Indemnitee.

(d) Unless the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, no Indemnitee may settle or compromise any Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party. If an Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim within the time period specified in clause (b) above, it shall not be a defense to any obligation to pay any amount in respect of such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party was not consulted in the defense thereof, that such Indemnifying Party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such defense were not accepted or adopted, that such Indemnifying Party does not approve of the quality or manner of the defense thereof or that such Third Party Claim was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.

(e) In the case of a Third Party Claim, no Indemnifying Party shall consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of the Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnitee if the effect thereof is (i) to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee or (ii) to ascribe any fault on any Indemnitee in connection with such defense.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a written release from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim.

Section 4.06. Additional Matters.

(a) Any claim on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such Indemnitee as contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(c) In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant or otherwise hold the Indemnifying Party as party thereto, if at all practicable. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the Action as set forth in this Section, and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys’ fees, experts fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement, and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement with respect to such Third Party Claim.

Section 4.07. Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article IV shall be cumulative and, subject to the provisions of Article VI, shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party.

Section 4.08. Survival of Indemnities. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Article IV shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee; and (ii) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification or contribution hereunder. The rights and obligations of each of MMC and the Company and their respective Indemnitees under this Article IV shall survive the merger or consolidation of any party, the sale or other transfer by any party of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, or the change of form or change of control of any party.

Section 4.09. Special Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR ANY OF ITS GROUP MEMBERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS SUFFERED BY AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DAMAGES ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY IS REQUIRED TO PAY ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS TO A PERSON WHO IS NOT A MEMBER OF EITHER GROUP IN CONNECTION WITH A THIRD PARTY CLAIM, SUCH DAMAGES WILL CONSTITUTE DIRECT DAMAGES AND NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 4.09.

ARTICLE V

agrees that nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be construed to create any explicit or implied restriction or other limitation on (i) the ability of any party hereto to engage in any business or other activity which competes with the business of any other party hereto or (ii) the ability of any party to engage in any specific line of business or engage in any business activity in any specific geographic area.

Any use by the MMC Group of any of the Retained Names as permitted in this Section 5.02 is subject to their use of the Retained Names in the same form and manner, and with standards of quality, of that in effect for the Retained Names as of the Effective Date. The MMC Group shall not use the Retained Names in a manner that may reflect negatively on such name and marks or on the Company or any of its Affiliates. Without limitation to any other remedies, the Company shall have the right to terminate the foregoing license, effective immediately, if any of the MMC Group fails to comply with the foregoing terms and conditions or otherwise fails to comply with any reasonable direction of the Company or any of its Affiliates in relation to the use of the Retained Names.

ARTICLE VI

As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, subject to the provisions of this Section 6.01, MMC and the Company shall discuss and negotiate in good faith to agree to a plan to transition (i) to the Company all Company Books and Records in the possession of MMC or any member of the MMC Group, and (ii) to MMC all MMC Books and Records in the possession of the Company or any member of the Company Group. The foregoing shall be limited by the following:

(a) The transition of books and records shall require only deliveries of (i) specific and discrete books and records or a reasonably limited class of items requested by the other party and (ii) specific and discrete books and records identified by either party in the ordinary course of business and determined by such party to be material to the other’s business. Without limiting any express delivery requirements under any other provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, neither party shall be required to conduct any general search or investigation of its files.

(b) Each party may retain copies of books and records delivered to the other, subject to holding in confidence in accordance with Section 6.09 information contained in such books and records.

(c) Each party may in good faith refuse to furnish any books and records under this Section 6.01 if it reasonably believes in good faith that doing so could materially adversely affect its ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege.

(d) Neither party shall be required to deliver to the other books and records or portions thereof which are subject to any Law or confidentiality agreements which would by their terms prohibit such delivery; provided, however, that if requested by the other party, such party shall use reasonable best efforts to seek a waiver of or other relief from such confidentiality restriction.

(e) Nothing in this Section 6.01 shall affect the rights and obligations of any party with respect to the sharing of information under the Tax Matters Agreement.

Section 6.02. Agreement for Exchange of Information; Archives.

(a) Each of MMC and the Company, on behalf of its respective Group, agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to the other Group, at any time before or after the Effective Date, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, access to any Information in the possession or under the control of such respective Group that can be retrieved without unreasonable disruption to its business which the requesting party reasonably needs (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing, record retention or other requirements imposed on the requesting party (including under applicable securities or tax Laws) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting party, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative, tax or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, regulatory, litigation, environmental, tax or other similar requirements, in each case other than claims or allegations that one party to this Agreement or any member of its Group has against the other party or any member of its Group, or (iii) subject to the foregoing clause (ii), to comply with its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) After the Effective Date, each of the MMC Group on the one hand, and the Company Group on the other hand, shall provide to such other Group access during regular business hours (as in effect from time to time) to Information that relates to the business and operations of such Group that are located in archives retained or maintained by such other Group (or, if such Information does not exclusively relate to a party’s business, to the portions of such Information that so exclusively relate), subject to appropriate restrictions for proprietary, privileged or confidential information and to the requirements of an applicable state and/or federal regulation such as a Code of Conduct, to the personnel, properties and information of such party and its Subsidiaries, and only insofar as such access is reasonably required by the other party for legitimate business reasons, and only for the duration such access is required, and relates to such other party or the conduct of the business prior to the Effective Date. The Company or MMC, as applicable, may obtain copies (but not originals) at their own expense of such Information for bona fide business purposes. The Company or MMC, as applicable, shall pay the applicable fee or rate per hour for archives research services (subject to increase from time to time to reflect rates then in effect) for the providing party generally.

(c) Nothing in this Section 6.02 shall affect the rights and obligations of any party with respect to the sharing of information under the Tax Matters Agreement.

(d) In the event any party reasonably determines that any such provision of Information could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or Contract, or result in the waiver any Privilege, the parties shall take all commercially reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

Section 6.03. Ownership of Information. Any Information owned by one Group that is provided to a requesting party pursuant to Section 6.01 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing party. Unless expressly set forth in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring any right, title or interest (whether by license or otherwise) in, to or under any such Information.

Section 6.04. Compensation for Providing Information. The party requesting access to Information agrees to reimburse the other party for the reasonable costs, if any, of providing such access, including costs of salaries and benefits of employees who are involved in providing access to the Information or any pro rata portion of overhead or other costs of employing such employees which would have been incurred by such employees’ employer regardless of the employees’ service as providing the access to Information and the costs incurred in creating, gathering and copying such Information, to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit of the requesting party.

Section 6.05. Record Retention. To facilitate the possible exchange of Information pursuant to this Article VI and other provisions of this Agreement after the Effective Date, the parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to retain all Information in their respective possession or control on the Effective Date in accordance with the policies of MMC as in effect from time to time or such other policies as may be reasonably adopted by the appropriate party after the Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, such policies shall be deemed to apply to any Information in a party’s possession or control on the Effective Date relating to the other party or members of its Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent such Information relates to Environmental Liabilities, such retention period shall be extended to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any extensions thereof). Nothing in this Section 6.05 shall affect the rights and obligations of any party to the Tax Matters Agreement with respect to Tax Records.

Section 6.06. Limitations of Liability.

No party shall have any liability to any other party if any Information is destroyed after commercially reasonable efforts by such party to comply with the provisions of Section 6.05.

Section 6.07. Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information. The rights and obligations granted under this Article VI are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange, retention, rights to use, or confidential treatment of Information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.08. Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation.

(a) After the Effective Date, except in the case of any Action involving or relating to a conflict or dispute between any member of the MMC Group, on the one hand, and any member of the Company Group, on the other hand, each party hereto will use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to each other party, upon written request, the then current directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the Person in its respective Group as witnesses and any books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that any such Person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with any Action in which indemnification is or may reasonably be expected to be sought that the requesting party may from time to time be involved. The requesting party shall bear all costs and expenses in connection therewith.

(b) If an Indemnifying Party or Indemnitee chooses to defend or to seek to compromise or settle any Third Party Claim, the other party shall make available to such Indemnifying Party or Indemnitee, as applicable, upon written request then current directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the Persons in its respective Group as witnesses and any Information within its control or possession, to the extent that any such Person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel

and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be, and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate in such defense, settlement or compromise, or such prosecution, evaluation or pursuit, as the case may be.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the parties shall cooperate and consult to the extent reasonably necessary with respect to any Actions in which indemnification is or may reasonably be expected to be sought.

(d) The obligation of the parties to provide witnesses pursuant to this Section 6.08 is intended to be interpreted in a manner so as to facilitate cooperation and shall include the obligation to provide as witnesses employees and other officers without regard to whether the witness or the employer of the witness could assert a possible business conflict (subject to the exception set forth in the first sentence of Section 6.08(a)).

(e) In connection with any matter contemplated by this Section 6.08 the parties will enter into a mutually acceptable joint defense agreement so as to maintain to the extent practicable any applicable attorney-client privilege or work product immunity of any Person in any Group.

Section 6.09. Confidentiality.

(a) Subject to Section 6.10, each of MMC and the Company (each, a “Receiving Party”), on behalf of itself and each Person in its respective Group, agree to hold, and to cause its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives to hold in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to the confidential and proprietary information of MMC pursuant to policies in effect as of the Effective Date, all Information with respect to MMC, solely concerning the MMREIS Business (for which the Company shall be the “Disclosing Party”) and with respect to the Company, concerning the MMC Business (for which MMC shall be the “Disclosing Party”) that is accessible to it, in its possession (including Information in its possession prior to the Effective Date) or furnished by the Disclosing Party or any Person in its respective Group, or accessible to, in the possession of, or furnished to the Company’s respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, except, in each case, to the extent that such Information (i) is or becomes part of the public domain through no breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party or any of its Group, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives, (ii) information that was independently developed following the Effective Date by employees or agents of the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group, its respective directors, officers, employees, agents, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives who have not accessed or otherwise received the applicable Information; provided that such independent development can be demonstrated by competent, contemporaneous written records of the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group, or (iii) becomes available to the Receiving Party or any Person in its respective Group following the Effective Date on a non-confidential basis from a third party who is not bound directly or indirectly by a duty of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party.

(b) Each party acknowledges that it and the other members of its Group may have in their possession confidential or proprietary Information of third parties that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with such third party prior to the Effective Date. Such party will hold, and will cause the other members of its Group and their respective representatives to hold, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of third parties to which they or any other member of their respective Groups has access, in accordance with the terms of any agreements entered into prior to the Effective Date between one or more members of such party’s Group (whether acting through, on behalf of, or connection with, the separated businesses) and such third parties.

(c) Upon the written request of a party, the other party shall promptly destroy any copies of such confidential or proprietary Information (including any extracts therefrom) specifically identified by the requesting party to be destroyed. Upon the written request of such requesting party, the other party shall cause one of its duly authorized officers to certify in writing to such requesting party that the requirements of the preceding sentence have been satisfied in full.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VI, (i) to the extent that an Ancillary Agreement or other Contract pursuant to which a party hereto or a Person in its respective Group is bound or its confidential Information is subject provides that certain Information shall be maintained confidential on a basis that is more protective of such Information or for a longer period of time than provided for herein, then the applicable provisions contained in such Ancillary Agreement or other Contract shall control with respect thereto and (ii) a Party and the Persons in its respective Group shall have no right to use any Information of the Disclosing Party unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, an Ancillary Agreement or Contract between the Parties or a Person in its respective Group.

Section 6.10. Protective Arrangements. In the event that the Receiving Party or any Person in its Group either determines on the advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any Information pursuant to applicable Law (including the rules and regulations of the Commission or any national securities exchange) or receives any request or demand from any Governmental Authority to disclose or provide Information of the Disclosing Party (or any Person in the Disclosing Party’s Group) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such party shall notify the other party prior to disclosing or providing such Information and shall cooperate at the expense of such other party in seeking any reasonable protective arrangements (including by seeking confidential treatment of such Information) requested by such other party. Subject to the foregoing, the Person that received such a request or determined that it is required to disclose Information may thereafter disclose or provide Information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or requested or required by such Governmental Authority; provided, however, that such Person provides the other party, to the extent legally permissible, upon request with a copy of the Information so disclosed.

Section 6.11. Preservation of Legal Privileges.

(a) MMC and the Company recognize that the members of their respective groups possess and will possess information and advice that has been previously developed but is legally protected from disclosure under legal privileges, such as the attorney-client privilege or work

product exemption and other concepts of legal protection (“Privilege”). Each party recognizes that they shall be jointly entitled to the Privilege with respect to such privileged information and that each shall be entitled to maintain, preserve and assert for its own benefit all such information and advice, but both parties shall ensure that such information is maintained so as to protect the Privileges with respect to the other party’s interest. To that end, neither party will knowingly waive or compromise any Privilege associated with such information and advice without the prior written consent of the other party. In the event that privileged information is required to be disclosed to any arbitrator or mediator in connection with a dispute between the parties, such disclosure shall not be deemed a waiver of Privilege with respect to such information, and any party receiving it in connection with a proceeding shall be informed of its nature and shall be required to safeguard and protect it.

(b) The rights and obligations created by this Section 6.11 shall apply to all information relating to the MMREIS Business as to which, but for the Contribution and Distribution, either party would have been entitled to assert or did assert the protection of a Privilege, including (i) any and all information generated prior to the Effective Date but which, after the Contribution, is in the possession of either party and (ii) all information generated, received or arising after the Effective Date that refers to or relates to information described in the preceding clause (i).

(c) Upon receipt by either party of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may call for the production or disclosure of information that is the subject of a Privilege, or if a party obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of a party has received any subpoena, discovery or other request that may call for the production or disclosure of such information, such party shall provide the other party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 6.11 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such information. Absent receipt of written consent from the other party to the production or disclosure of information that may be covered by a Privilege, each party agrees that it will not produce or disclose any information that may be covered by a Privilege unless a court of competent jurisdiction has entered a final, nonappealable order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under any applicable Privilege.

(d) MMC’s transfer of Company Books and Records and other Information to the Company, MMC’s agreement to permit the Company to obtain Information existing prior to the Effective Date, the Company’s transfer of MMC Books and Records and other Information and the Company’s agreement to permit MMC to obtain Information existing prior to the Effective Date are made in reliance on MMC’s and the Company’s respective agreements, as set forth in Section 6.09, Section 6.10 and this Section 6.11, to maintain the confidentiality of such Information and to take the steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by MMC or the Company, as the case may be. The access to Information being granted pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 6.08 hereof and the disclosure to MMC and the Company of Privileged Information relating to the MMREIS Business or MMC Business pursuant to this Agreement in connection with the Contribution shall not be asserted by MMC or the Company to constitute, or otherwise deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 6.11 or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to reduce, minimize or condition the rights granted to MMC and the Company in, or the obligations imposed upon the parties by, this Section 6.11.
