2.6 Non-Assignable Assets.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions will be construed as an attempt or agreement to sell, transfer, assign, convey or deliver any asset, property or right to Buyer that, regardless of whether such asset, property or right is an Acquired Asset, by its terms or by Law is (i) not transferable or non-assignable, as applicable, without the consent or waiver of a third Person; or (ii) is cancellable by a third Person in the event of such a transfer or assignment without the consent or waiver of such third Person (collectively, “Non-Assignable Assets”), in each case unless and until such consent or waiver has been obtained.

-17-

(b) The Parties will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents or waivers for the transfer of the Non-Assignable Assets; provided, however, that in connection with the foregoing, neither Party will be required to (i) pay or agree to pay any amounts or other consideration, (ii) agree to the imposition of any limitation or obligation on its business or operations, (iii) provide or agree to provide any additional security (including a guaranty) or (iv) agree to any modifications of existing contracts or the entry into any new contracts, and if any such consent or waiver that is not required to be obtained as a condition to Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Transactions pursuant to ARTICLE III is not obtained prior to the Closing, then the Closing will nonetheless take place.

(c) The Parties will (and will cause their respective Subsidiaries to) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to (i) obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to novate all obligations under, any and all obligations or Liabilities that constitute, Assumed Liabilities; and (ii) obtain in writing the unconditional release of Seller and its Subsidiaries so that, in any such case, Buyer will, effective as of the Closing, be solely responsible for the Liabilities and obligations underlying the Assumed Liabilities.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event that written consents or waivers to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained prior to the Closing, such Non-Assignable Assets will be held, as of and from the Closing Date, by Seller in trust for Buyer and the covenants and obligations thereunder will be performed by Buyer in Seller’s name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder will be for Buyer’s account. Seller will take or cause to be taken, at Buyer’s expense, such actions in its name or otherwise as Buyer may reasonably request so as to provide Buyer with the benefits of the Non-Assignable Assets and to effect the collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Non-Assignable Assets, and Seller will promptly pay over to Buyer all money or other consideration received by it in respect of all Non-Assignable Assets.

(e) From and after the Closing Date, Seller on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, authorizes Buyer, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of Seller or its Subsidiaries under the Non-Assignable Assets and appoints Buyer as its attorney-in-fact to act in its name on its behalf or in the name of the applicable Subsidiaries of Seller and on such Subsidiary’s behalf with respect thereto.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until any written consent or waiver with respect to any Non-Assignable Asset is obtained, such Non-Assignable Asset will not constitute an Acquired Asset and any associated Liability will not constitute an Assumed Liability for any purpose under this Agreement, and the failure of any such written consent or waiver to be obtained or the failure of any such Non-Assignable Asset to constitute an Acquired Asset or any circumstances resulting therefrom will not constitute a Business Material Adverse Effect or a breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. Promptly upon obtaining the requisite consents or waivers, such Non-Assignable Asset will become an Acquired Asset and will be transferred and assigned to Buyer hereunder.

-18-

(g) Buyer will indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Subsidiaries from and against any and all Losses actually incurred by Seller or its Subsidiaries (i) as a result of any actions taken or not taken by Buyer after the Closing Date as subcontractor, representative or obligor with respect to any Non-Assignable Asset, or the non-compliance by Buyer on or following the Closing Date with any Laws applicable to any such Non-Assignable Asset; or (ii) if Buyer is permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets to perform the covenants and obligations of Seller or its Subsidiary thereunder in Seller’s (or its Subsidiary’s) stead, for any Losses otherwise relating to any Non-Assignable Assets.

2.7 Delivery.

(a) All tangible Acquired Assets will be delivered to Buyer (or its applicable Subsidiaries) Ex Works (Incoterms 2010) at the locations of Seller and its Subsidiaries at which such assets are located in the ordinary course of the operation of the Business at the time of the Closing. Risk of loss with respect to the Acquired Assets will pass to Buyer at the Closing. Buyer (or its applicable Subsidiaries) will be responsible for all costs associated with the transport of such Acquired Assets to the relevant location of Buyer. Seller will provide Buyer with reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to the facilities of Seller and its Subsidiaries to allow Buyer to retrieve such Acquired Assets as promptly as practicable after the Closing.

3.6 Net Asset Value Determination.

(a) Definition. “Net Asset Value” means an amount equal to (i) all assets of the Business minus (ii) all liabilities of the Business, in each case calculated in accordance with GAAP using the same accounting methods, standards, policies, practices and estimation methodologies used to prepare the Seller’s financial statement and presented in a form substantially similar to that previously made available to Buyer (but excluding, in all cases, any charges booked by Seller during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 in contemplation of winding down the Business). As of June 30, 2014, the Net Asset Value was $2,962,373.36.

(b) Calculation of Estimated Net Asset Value. At least five Business Days prior to the close of business on the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a draft of an estimated unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Business as of the close of business on the Closing Date, which shall include a statement setting forth Seller’s estimate of the Net Asset Value (the “Estimated Net Asset Value Statement”). The Estimated Net Asset Value Statement will fairly and accurately present Seller’s good faith best estimate (based on reasonable assumptions) of the Net Asset Value. The estimated Net Asset Value set forth in the Estimated Net Asset Value Statement is referred to as the “Estimated Net Asset Value.”

(i) Within 60 days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare (or cause to be prepared) and deliver to Seller a statement setting forth Buyer’s calculation of the Net Asset Value (the “Actual Net Asset Value Statement”). If Buyer does not deliver the Actual Net Asset Value Statement within such time period, then for all purposes of and under this Agreement the term “Actual Net Asset Value” will mean the Estimated Net Asset Value set forth in the Estimated Net Asset Value Statement delivered by Seller.

(ii) Seller may dispute any item or amount set forth in the Actual Net Asset Value Statement within 30 days following receipt of the Actual Net Asset Value Statement by delivering to Buyer a written notice of such dispute (a “Notice of Dispute”) setting forth, in reasonable detail and to the extent practicable, (A) each item or amount so disputed by Seller; (B) Seller’s calculation of each such disputed item or amount; and (C) Seller’s calculation of the Net Asset Value after giving effect to Seller’s calculation of each such disputed item or amount.

(iii) If Buyer does not receive a Notice of Dispute from Seller delivered pursuant to and in accordance with Section 3.6(c)(ii) within the time period set forth therein, then (A) Seller shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented and agreed to each item and amount set forth in the Actual Net Asset Value Statement delivered by Buyer; and (B) for all purposes of and under this Agreement, the term “Actual Net Asset Value” shall mean the Net Asset Value as set forth in the Actual Net Asset Value Statement.

-23-

therein, then Buyer and Seller shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to resolve all disputed items and amounts set forth in the Notice of Dispute pursuant to good faith negotiations.

The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and representatives to, provide full cooperation to the Independent Accounting Firm, including providing the Independent Accounting Firm with all relevant information, books and records and any work papers relating to the disputed items and amounts and all other items reasonably requested by the Independent Accounting Firm.

All expenses relating to the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be borne by the Party whose estimate of the Net Asset Value is the furthest from the amount finally determined by the Independent Accounting Firm. The Independent Accounting Firm shall determine all disputed items and amounts and its decision in respect thereof shall be final and binding upon the Parties.

(iv) Except as set forth in Section 3.6(c)(i) or Section 3.6(c)(iii), for all purposes of this Agreement, the term “Actual Net Asset Value” shall mean the Net Asset Value based upon (A) all amounts agreed upon by Buyer and Seller in respect of any disputed items or amounts, as set forth in the Net Asset Value Memorandum; and (B) all other amounts determined by the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 3.6(c)(iii)(B).

-24-

(v) During the period of time from and after the date of the delivery of the Actual Net Asset Value Statement to Seller until the Actual Net Asset Value has been finally determined, Buyer shall provide Seller and its representatives (including accountants and counsel) with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records of the Business (including the Books and Records) and the working papers used by Buyer (or accountants and counsel retained by it), and access to such personnel or representatives of Buyer and the Business as Seller may reasonably require for the purposes of review of, resolving any dispute related to or responding to any matters or inquiries concerning Buyer’s calculation of the Net Asset Value, the Actual Net Asset Value and the preparation of any Notice of Dispute, and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to inquiries from Seller regarding the Actual Net Asset Value Statement.

(d) Payment. Promptly following the determination of the Actual Net Asset Value, in the event that the Actual Net Asset Value is (i) less than the Estimated Net Asset Value (such difference, the “Shortfall Amount”), then Seller shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Buyer, deliver to Buyer the Shortfall Amount; or (ii) greater than the Estimated Net Asset Value (such excess, the “Excess Amount”), then Buyer shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller, deliver to Seller the Excess Amount.

3.7 Earnout.

(a) Acknowledgement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Business’ projected sales were a material factor in determining the valuation of the Business by Buyer. As a result, Buyer will pay to Seller the Earnout Consideration, if any, upon achievement of the objectives, and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth, in this Section 3.7.

(d) Payment of Earnout Consideration; Seller Objections.

(i) No later than 60 days after the Earnout Date, Buyer will deliver to the Seller a memorandum (the “Earnout Notice”) specifying in reasonable detail Buyer’s calculation of Qualifying Revenue during the Earnout Period. The Earnout Notice will be accompanied by reasonably detailed documentation supporting the calculations therein.

(ii) Seller will have 30 days to make an objection in writing to any item in the Earnout Notice, and that objection must be delivered to Buyer prior to 5:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on the expiration of the 30-day period. If no objection is delivered to Buyer within the 30-day period, then the Earnout Notice will become final and binding on Buyer and Seller.

(iii) Buyer and Seller will attempt in good faith to resolve any objection to the Earnout Notice made pursuant to Section 3.7(d)(ii), and while attempting to resolve such objection Buyer agrees to promptly provide reasonably requested backup information to substantiate the calculation of the Earnout Consideration. If, within 60 days after the Seller delivers an objection to the Earnout Notice to Buyer, and after good faith negotiations, Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on the rights of the respective parties with respect to the Earnout Consideration, either Buyer or the Seller may seek resolution of the dispute through an Action pursuant to Section 13.11.

(iv) Promptly following the resolution of any objections to the Earnout Notice, Buyer will distribute the Earnout Consideration to the Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(e) Earnout Protections. Buyer will not take any action the principal purpose of which is to circumvent or adversely affect Seller’s ability to receive the Earnout Consideration.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, all rights, powers and Liabilities of Seller and its Subsidiaries to or in respect of any Automatic Transfer Employee (including the rights, powers and Liabilities under, in connection with or arising from a Contract of employment or employment relationship between an Automatic Transfer Employee and Seller or any of its Subsidiaries) in force and effect immediately prior to the Closing will remain with, or be transferred by operation of Law to, Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer will employ all Automatic Transfer Employees from and after the Closing for at least the period of time required by applicable Law.

(b) Buyer will comply (or cause its Subsidiaries to comply) with all applicable provisions of the Transfer Regulations and other similar country-specific legal standards or applicable Laws in respect of all Automatic Transfer Employees.

8.2 Designated Employees.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Buyer will, or will cause one of its Subsidiaries to, offer employment to each Designated Employee other than any Leave Employee, in each case effective as of the Closing, pursuant to a written employment offer letter (each, an “Offer Letter”). Each Offer Letter will provide that the applicable Designated Employee will receive full credit for their prior service with Seller or any of its Subsidiaries for all purposes, and will receive salary and benefits (including long-term incentive compensation) comparable to those received on the date of this Agreement. The Parties will reasonably cooperate to determine the appropriate treatment of any Leave Employees.

(b) Effective as of the Closing, Buyer, or one of its Subsidiaries must hire and employ each Designated Employee who accepts and does not repudiate his or her Offer Letter prior to the Closing Date. Those Designated Employees who accept employment from Buyer pursuant to the offers of employment made pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and commence employment with Buyer as of the Closing (or such later date with respect to the Leave Employees), together with all Automatic Transfer Employees, are referred to herein collectively as “Transferred Employees.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as required by applicable Law, no Transferred Employee has any continuing rights to employment, and each such Transferred Employee will be considered an “at will” employee, unless he or she has or enters into a written employment agreement guaranteeing employment that is binding on Buyer.

(e) Seller and Buyer agree that, pursuant to the “Alternative Procedures” provided in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53, with respect to the filing and furnishing of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-2, W-3 and 941 for the full calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs, (i) Seller and Buyer will report on a “predecessor-successor” basis, as set forth therein; (ii) Seller will be relieved from furnishing Forms W-2 to any Transferred Employees; and (iii) Buyer will assume the obligations of Seller to furnish Forms W-2 to such Transferred Employees and Forms W-2 and W-3 with respect to Transferred Employees to the Social Security Administration; provided, however, that Seller will transfer to Buyer all Forms W-4 and W-5 with respect to the Transferred Employees, and such other data relating to Transferred Employees (including records of all (A) wages and bonuses paid and (B) Taxes withheld and paid) as are necessary for Buyer to assume and satisfy such obligations accurately and in accordance with applicable Law.

(f) Beginning as of the Closing Date, Buyer is responsible for providing the notices and making available the health care continuation coverage as required by COBRA for all of the Transferred Employees and their respective covered dependents whose qualifying events (as defined in Code Section 4980B) occur on or after the Closing Date.

(g) From and after the Closing Date (i) Buyer will assume all duties and Liabilities in connection with, and will honor, all vacation days, sick leave days, and paid time off days of the Transferred Employees that accrued prior to the Closing Date and will not take any action that results in a forfeiture of any such time off in violation of any applicable state law; and (ii) Buyer’s vacation pay policy, sick leave policy and paid time off policy will apply to each Transferred Employee and will take into account service with Seller as provided in Section 8.2(a).

(h) Buyer must take all actions necessary or appropriate so that, effective as of the Closing Date, (i) the actual account balances (whether positive or negative) under Seller’s health and dependent care flexible spending account plans (the “FSAs”) of the Transferred Employees who are participants in Seller’s FSAs (the “Covered Employees”) will be transferred to one or more comparable plans of Buyer; (ii) the elections, contribution levels and coverage levels of the Covered Employees will apply under Buyer’s FSAs in the same manner as under Seller’s FSAs; provided,

-43-

however, that Seller has provided all data necessary to Buyer to reflect such application; and (iii) the Covered Employees will be reimbursed from Buyer’s FSAs for claims (A) incurred at any time during the plan year of Seller’s FSAs in which the Closing Date occurs, and (B) submitted to Buyer’s FSAs from and after the Closing Date, substantially on the same basis, terms and conditions as under Seller’s FSAs.

(i) As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Seller must cause the vested account balances of all Transferred Employees in Seller’s applicable 401(k) plan to be distributed in accordance with terms of such 401(k) plan (treating the Transferred Employees as having severed from employment within the meaning of such 401(k) plan), and Buyer will permit Transferred Employees who are participants in said plan and who are employed by Buyer following the Closing Date to rollover such distributions (including outstanding participant loans balances) into Buyer’s 401(k) plan, if any.

(j) For all purposes under the employee benefit plans, employment practices and similar arrangements of Buyer providing compensation or benefits to any Transferred Employees after the Closing Date (other than any equity compensation program or any accrual formula under any “defined benefit” pension plan of Buyer), each Transferred Employee must be credited with all years of service for which such Transferred Employee was credited as of the Closing Date under any similar employee benefit plans, practices or arrangements of Seller and its Subsidiaries.

8.3 No Third Person Beneficiaries. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VIII or any other provision of this Agreement are included for the sole benefit of the Parties and will not (a) create any right in any other Person, including any Designated Employees, any Transferred Employees, any participant in any Employee Benefit Plan or International Employee Plan or any beneficiary thereof, to continued employment, either before or after the Closing, with Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or Buyer; or (b) be construed to modify, amend or establish any benefit plan, program or arrangement or in any way affect the ability of the Parties or any other Person to modify, amend or terminate any of its benefit plans, programs or arrangements; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions in this ARTICLE VIII do not supersede the rights under the Transfer Regulations of any Automatic Transfer Employee.

ARTICLE IX

TAX MATTERS

9.1 Straddle Period. In the case of any real or personal property Taxes (or other similar Taxes) attributable to the Acquired Assets for which Taxes are reported on a Tax Return covering a period commencing before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period Tax”), any such Straddle Period Taxes will be prorated between Buyer and Seller on a per diem basis. The Party required by Law to pay any such Straddle Period Tax (the “Paying Party”) will file the Tax Return related to such Straddle Period Tax within the time period prescribed by Law and will timely pay such Straddle Period Tax. To the extent any such payment exceeds the obligation of the Paying Party hereunder, the Paying Party will provide the other Party (the “Non-Paying Party”) with notice of payment details, within 10 days of receipt of such notice of payment, the Non-Paying Party will reimburse the Paying Party for the Non-Paying Party’s share of such Straddle Period Taxes.

-44-

All sales (including bulk sales), use, transfer, value-added, goods and services, recording, ad valorem, privilege, documentary, gains, gross receipts, registration, conveyance, excise, license, stamp, duties or similar Taxes and fees (“Transfer Taxes”) resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be borne equally by Buyer and Seller (after taking into account estimated recoveries). The Party required by applicable Law to file a Tax Return with respect to such Transfer Taxes will do so within the time period prescribed by applicable Law, and the Party not paying such Transfer Taxes will promptly reimburse the other Party for its portion of the such Transfer Taxes upon receipt of written notice that such Transfer Taxes were paid. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Parties will cooperate in taking reasonable steps to minimize any Transfer Taxes.

ARTICLE X

NON-COMPETITION; NON-SOLICITATION

10.1 Non-Competition.

(a) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer would be irreparably damaged if Seller were to engage in a Competing Business and that any such competition by Seller or its Subsidiaries would result in a significant loss of goodwill by Buyer. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this ARTICLE X were a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and that Buyer would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in this Agreement, as specifically negotiated by the Parties, if Seller breached the provisions of this Section 10.1. In further consideration of the amounts to be paid hereunder for the Acquired Assets and the goodwill of Seller sold by Seller, except with the prior written consent of Buyer, at all times until five years following the Closing Date, Seller will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, engage in a Competing Business worldwide. Seller acknowledges that the Business has been conducted or is presently proposed to be conducted throughout the world and that the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill of the Business being sold by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

10.2 Non-Solicitation.

(a) Seller agrees that, for a period of 12 months following the Closing Date, it will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly, or indirectly through another Person, induce or attempt to induce any Transferred Employee to leave the employment of Buyer; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 11.2 will prevent Seller or its Subsidiaries from (i) publishing a general solicitation of employment not targeted at the Transferred Employees; or (ii) retaining a recruitment firm to make a general solicitation of employment so long as Seller has directed such recruitment firm not to target the Transferred Employees.

10.3 Severability. If, at the time of enforcement of the covenants contained in this ARTICLE X, a court must hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, then the Parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances must be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court must be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by Law.

-46-

11.2 Effect of Pre-Closing Termination. In the event of the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 11.1, this Agreement will become void and of no further force or effect whatsoever, and there will be no liability or obligation on the part of Seller or its Affiliates or Representatives in connection herewith; provided, however, that no such termination will relieve Seller from liability resulting from or arising out of any willful and material breach of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth herein or impair the right of any Party to compel specific performance by the other Party of its obligations under this Agreement; and provided further, however, that the provisions of Section 7.5, this Section 11.2 and ARTICLE XIII will remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1.

(f) Buyer will not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII for (i) any item disclosed in the Schedules; (ii) any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition waived by Buyer on or prior to the Closing; or (iii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement if Buyer had Knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing.

(g) For the sole purpose of determining Losses (and not for determining whether or not any breaches, inaccuracies or failures of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements have occurred), the representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements of Buyer and Seller will not be deemed to be qualified by any references to “materiality” or “Business Material Adverse Effect,” other than in any instance where the context requires otherwise.

12.4 Indemnification Procedure for Third Person Claims.

(a) In the event that an Indemnified Party receives a claim or demand from a third Person for which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification from an Indemnifying Party pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE XII (a “Third Person Claim”), the Indemnified Party must, as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such claim or demand (but in no event more than 10 days following receipt of such claim or demand), notify the Indemnifying Party in writing (a “Notice of Claim”) of such Third Person Claim. A Notice of Claim delivered pursuant to this Section 12.4 must (i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or incurred Losses, or reasonably anticipates that the Indemnified Party will pay or incur Losses, for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or incurred, the basis for any reasonably anticipated Losses and the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or other claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder. The Indemnified Party must enclose with the Notice of Claim a copy of all papers served with respect to such Third Person Claim, if any, and any other documents evidencing such Third Person Claim.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have 60 days from the date on which the Indemnifying Party receives the Notice of Claim to notify the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party desires to assume the defense or prosecution of such Third Person Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom with counsel of its choice and at its sole cost and expense (a “Third Person Defense”). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the Third Person Defense in

-49-

accordance with this Agreement, then (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the Third Person Claim, but the Indemnifying Party will control the investigation, defense and settlement thereof; (ii) the Indemnified Party may not file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Person Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party; and (iii) the Indemnifying Party may not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Person Claim to the extent such judgment or settlement provides for equitable relief without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, unless the judgment or settlement provides solely for the payment of money and the Indemnified Party receives an unconditional release. The Parties will act in good faith in responding to, defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with Third Person Claims. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party has assumed a Third Person Defense, such Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder for any settlement entered into or any judgment that was consented to without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume a Third Person Defense within 60 days of receipt of the Notice of Claim, then the Indemnified Party will be entitled to assume the Third Person Defense, at its sole cost and expense (or, if the Indemnified Party pays or incurs a Loss with respect to the matter in question for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 12.2, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party) upon delivery of notice to such effect to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that (i) the Indemnifying Party will have the right to participate in the Third Person Defense at its sole cost and expense, but the Indemnified Party will control the investigation, defense and settlement thereof; (ii) the Indemnifying Party may at any time thereafter assume the Third Person Defense, in which event the Indemnifying Party must bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel incurred prior to the assumption by the Indemnifying Party of the Third Person Defense, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder for any settlement entered into or any judgment that was consented to without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

(d) The Parties will, and will cause their Subsidiaries to, provide reasonable cooperation with each other in all aspects of any investigation, defense, pretrial activities, trial, compromise, settlement or discharge of any claim in respect of which an Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII that an Indemnifying Party has elected to control, including by providing the other Party with reasonable access to books, records, employees and officers (including as witnesses) of the Business.

12.5 Indemnification Procedures for Non-Third Person Claims. In the event that an Indemnified Party determines that it may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII for an item or matter that is not the subject of a Third Person Claim, then the Indemnified Party must deliver a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party promptly upon its discovery of such item or matter. The Notice of Claim delivered pursuant to this Section 12.5 must (i) state that the Indemnified Party has paid or incurred Losses for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII; and (ii) specify in reasonable detail each individual item of Loss included in the amount so stated, the date such item was paid or incurred and

-50-

the nature of the misrepresentation, breach of warranty, breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related and the computation of the amount to which such Indemnified Party claims to be entitled hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party that it disputes such claim within 30 days from receipt of such Notice of Claim, then the Indemnified Party must send a second Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party relating to such claim for indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party that it disputes such claim within 30 days following receipt of such second Notice of Claim, then the claim specified therein will be deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder (subject to the Deductible and the other limitations set forth in this ARTICLE XII, as applicable). The Indemnified Party must reasonably cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any claim for indemnity by the Indemnified Party and in otherwise resolving such matters, including by providing the other Party with reasonable access to books, records, employees and officers (including as witnesses) of the Business.

12.6 Calculation of Indemnity Payments.

(a) The amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII will be reduced by (i) any and all amounts recovered by the Indemnified Party under applicable insurance policies; and (ii) any and all amounts received by the Indemnified Party from any other Person in the form of an indemnity, contribution or other similar payment. If an Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies or from any other Person subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then the Indemnified Party will promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by the Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of any expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in collecting such amount.

(b) Under no circumstances will any Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this ARTICLE XII for special, indirect, incidental, consequential, multiple of any financial or business measure (including earnings, sales or other benchmarks), expectancy, indirect, punitive, exemplary or other similar damages, including diminution in value, lost profits, lost revenues, business interruptions, or loss of business opportunity or reputation.

(c) Each Indemnified Party will take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss.

12.7 Exclusive Remedy. Except (a) in the event of any intentional fraud committed with actual knowledge and (b) for specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies, from and after the Closing the sole and exclusive remedy of each Indemnified Party with respect to any and all matters arising out of, relating to or connected with this Agreement and the Transactions will be the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE XII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party (on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, Affiliates and Representatives) hereby waives, from and after the Closing, any and all rights, claims and causes of action that it may have

-51-

against the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries, Affiliates or Representatives arising under or based upon any Law or otherwise (except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE XII).

12.8 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the Parties will treat any indemnification payment made hereunder as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Either Party or other recipient may from time to time change its contact information for purposes of this Agreement by giving notice of such change as provided herein.

13.2 Amendments and Waivers. Subject to applicable Law, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each of the Parties, or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No course of dealing and no failure or delay on the part of any Party in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such Party’s rights, powers and remedies. The failure of any of the Parties to require the performance of a term or obligation under this Agreement or the waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder will not prevent subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach hereunder. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

13.3 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements and other provisions set forth in this Agreement and made by or on behalf of either Party will bind and inure to the benefit of the successors, heirs and permitted assigns of such Party, whether or not so expressed. Prior to the Closing, Buyer may assign any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a SubCo so long as SubCo enters into an appropriate joinder agreement reasonably acceptable to Seller. Following the Closing, neither Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent in writing of the other Party and any such assignment or transfer will be null and void.

13.4 Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason in any jurisdiction, the validity,

-53-

legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof will not be in any way impaired or affected, it being intended that the rights and privileges of each Party will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Any such invalidity, illegality and unenforceability in any jurisdiction will not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction (so long as the economic or legal substance of the Transactions is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either Party).

13.5 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each of Seller and Buyer will pay all of its own fees, costs and expenses (including fees, costs and expenses of its Representatives) incurred in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the Transactions. All fees related to any filings under the HSR Act will be paid by Buyer.

13.6 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions (without proof of damages) to prevent actual or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, and the Parties hereby agree to waive any requirements for posting a bond in connection with any such action.

13.7 Other Remedies. Except to the extent set forth herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, in the period from the date of this Agreement until the Closing, Seller may enter into Contracts with third Persons in reliance on Buyer’s commitments set forth in this Agreement and that such Contracts may contain obligations, commitments, liabilities, penalties and indemnities that are binding on Seller and that Seller would not have undertaken in the absence of this Agreement and Seller’s expectation that the Transactions will be consummated as set forth in this Agreement. Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that it will be fully and completely responsible for any Losses of any type or nature (whether direct or indirect) suffered by Seller or any of its Affiliates that result from such Contracts or that are asserted by the counterparties to such Contracts under any theory of liability as a result of Buyer’s failure to consummate the Transactions for any reason. Such counterparties are intended third Person beneficiaries of this Section 13.7.

13.8 No Third Person Beneficiaries. Except as specifically set forth or referred to herein, nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement will be construed to confer upon or give to any Person any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement or any other certificate, document, instrument or agreement executed in connection herewith nor be relied upon other than the Parties and their permitted successors or assigns.

13.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, and all other agreements referred to herein, is complete, and all promises, representations, understandings, warranties and agreements with reference to the subject matter

-54-

hereof, and all inducements to the making of this Agreement relied upon by all the Parties have been expressed herein or therein. This Agreement, including all Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement, and all other agreements referred to herein, supersede any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties, written or oral, to the extent that they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or thereof.

13.10 Governing Law. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely in such State.

13.11 Consent to Jurisdiction. Without limiting the other provisions of this Section 13.11, the Parties agree that any Action by or against any Party or with respect to or arising out of this Agreement must be brought in the state or federal courts located within New Castle County, Delaware. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts solely for the purposes of disputes arising under this Agreement and not as a general submission to such jurisdiction or with respect to any other dispute, matter or claim whatsoever. The Parties irrevocably consent to the service of process in any such Action by the delivery of copies thereof by overnight courier to the address for such Party to which notices are deliverable pursuant to this Agreement. Any such service of process will be effective upon delivery. Nothing herein will affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. The Parties hereby waive any right to stay or dismiss any such Action brought before such courts on the basis (a) of any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of such courts for any reason or that it or any of its property is immune from the above-described legal process; (b) that such Action is brought in an inconvenient forum; (c) that venue for such Action is improper or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts; or (d) of any other defense that would hinder or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which any Party is entitled pursuant to any final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. The Parties agree that a judgment in any such Action may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law.

13.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

13.13 Counterparts. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in two or more counterparts and by the Parties on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered will be an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a fax machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), will be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and will be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in

-55-

person. No Party will raise the use of an Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent that such defense relates to the lack of authenticity.

13.14 No Other Recourse Against Seller. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the Seller with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein. No past, present or future stockholder, Affiliate or Representative of Seller or of any of its Affiliates, or any of their successors or permitted assigns, will have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of Seller under this Agreement or for any claim or Action based on, in respect of or by reason of the Transactions.

13.15 Guarantee by Buyer. If Buyer assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a SubCo prior to the Closing in compliance with Section 13.3, then Buyer unconditionally guarantees timely and complete performance by SubCo of all of its duties and obligations contained in the Transaction Agreements, and the due and punctual payment by SubCo of any amount that may become due and payable by it under the Transaction Agreement, if and when, and limited to the extent that, SubCo defaults under such obligations. Seller shall provide to Buyer (a) notice of the extent to which SubCo has defaulted under such obligations; and (b) a demand for payment by Buyer of the amount of such obligations, less the amount in respect thereof that SubCo has paid to Seller through and including the date of such demand. Buyer will, within 30 days of receipt of demand for payment from Seller, pay such remaining amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Seller. The foregoing guarantee is a continuing guarantee and shall remain in full force and effect for so long as any such payments may become due and payable. Buyer waives any right to require that any resort be had by Seller or any Seller Indemnified Parties to the assets or properties of SubCo. The liability of Buyer shall not be limited, diminished or affected by (A) any failure by Seller or any of the Seller Indemnified Parties to file or enforce any claim against SubCo or others (in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise); or (B) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor. Buyer hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, protest, notice and demands (other than as provided in this Section 13.15) in connection with the performance of its obligations for payment under this Section 13.15. The guarantee contemplated by this Section 13.15 will apply regardless of any amendments, variations, alterations, waivers or extensions to this Agreement whether or not Buyer received notice of the those, and Buyer hereby waives all need for notice of them.
