At the Closing and effective as of the Closing Date, MII Life shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates (as applicable) to, and Aware shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, assign to Buyer all of MII Life’s and each applicable Affiliate’s rights under the Assumed Contracts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Assumed Contract shall be assigned, or deemed to be assigned, contrary to law or, in the event not permitted, or any applicable consent or approval is not obtained, pursuant to the terms of such Assumed Contract (any such Assumed Contract, a “Non-Assignable Contract”). The performance obligations of MII Life or its applicable Affiliate under a Non-Assignable Contract shall, unless prohibited by law or by the terms of such Non-Assignable Contract, be deemed to be subleased or subcontracted to Buyer until such Non-Assignable Contract has been assigned to Buyer. With respect to Non-Assignable Contracts, MII Life shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates (as applicable) to, and Aware shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents and approvals and to deliver all required notices to effect assignment thereof to Buyer; provided, however, MII Life and its Affiliates (as applicable) shall (a) not be required to pay any material fee or payment or make any concession to any third party in order to obtain any such consent or amendment, and Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, except as set forth herein, the procurement of any such consent or amendment is not a condition to Buyer’s obligations to effect the Closing, (b) until any necessary consent or approval is obtained, provide Buyer in any arrangement acceptable to Buyer (including a transition services arrangement) the full benefits (including the exercise of rights) and burdens (other than any Excluded Liabilities) under any such Non-Assignable Contracts, including enforcement, at Buyer’s sole expense, for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Sellers or any of their controlled Affiliates (as applicable) against a third party arising out of the breach or cancellation of any such Non-Assignable Contract or otherwise, (c) hold all monies paid thereunder in trust for the account of Buyer and (d) remit all such monies without set-off of any kind whatsoever (other than expenses incurred in performing under the Non-Assignable Contracts) to Buyer as promptly as possible. The obligations of the Parties under this Section 1.11 shall survive the Closing.

2.1 Organization. Such Seller is duly organized, legally existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation. Such Seller has all requisite corporate power and authority to, in the case of MII Life own and operate the Acquired Assets and the Spending Account Business or, in the case of Aware own the Units, and in the case of MII Life to conduct its Spending Account Business as it is now being conducted. Such Seller is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing under the laws of every state or jurisdiction in which the nature of its activities or of its properties owned, leased or operated requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified has not, and could not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. Aware is the record and beneficial owner and holder of all of the issued and outstanding stock and other securities or other equity and rights in SamCo and MII Life, free and clear of all Encumbrances of any kind, nature and description whatsoever.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Disclosure Schedules and the Ancillary Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by such Seller, have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, in accordance with Applicable Law and such Seller’s Constituent Documents. No additional corporate or shareholder authorization or consent is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by such Seller of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents to which it is or will become party. This Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to be executed and/or delivered by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement have been or will be prior to the Closing, as applicable, duly and validly executed and delivered by such Seller and the obligations of such Seller hereunder and thereunder are, or will be upon such execution and delivery (assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by Buyer), valid, legally binding and enforceable against such Seller in accordance with their respective terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by the availability of equitable principles or bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

2.3 No Breach. Such Seller has full power and authority to sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to Buyer the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life or the Units in the case of Aware. The execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the Ancillary Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by such Seller will not: (a) violate any provision of such Seller’s Constituent Documents, (b) violate any Applicable Laws or Order applicable to such Seller, (c) except for applicable requirements of the HSR Act, require of such Seller any filing with, Permit from, authorization, consent or approval of, or the giving of any notice to, any Person, (d) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give another Person any rights of termination, cancellation or acceleration) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, license, franchise, Permit (including but not limited to, any Permits, approvals or authorizations of any Governmental Body), lease, employee benefit plan or other Material Contract to which such Seller is a party, or by which the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life or the Units in the case of Aware may be bound, or (e) result in the creation or imposition of any Encumbrance on any of the Acquired Assets or the Units.

2.4 Title to Acquired Assets. Such Seller holds good, valid and marketable title to all of the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life or the Units in the case of Aware, free and clear of any and all Encumbrances of any kind, nature and description whatsoever (other than Permitted Encumbrances).

2.5 Litigation. There is no Proceeding pending, or to such Seller’s Knowledge threatened, by or against such Seller related to its Spending Account Business or against or relating to the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life, or against SamCo in the case of Aware. Such Seller is not a party to or subject to the provisions of any Order, in the case of MII Life related to its Spending Account Business and in the case of Aware related to SamCo. There are no Proceedings pending, or to the Knowledge of such Seller, threatened that question the legality of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Ancillary Documents or that are reasonably expected to prevent or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Ancillary Documents. Such Seller is not subject to any outstanding Order that (i) is reasonably expected to be material to SamCo or the Spending Account Business taken as a whole or (ii) prohibits or otherwise restricts the ability of such Seller or any of its Affiliates to consummate fully the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Ancillary Documents.

(i) With respect to each Seller Benefit Arrangement, (i) such Seller Benefit Arrangement is currently maintained and administered in all material respects in accordance with its express terms and with the requirements of Applicable Law, and (ii) there is no pending or, to the Knowledge of Sellers, threatened action, suit, administrative or regulatory proceeding, claim arbitration or Order, or any investigation by a Governmental Body, against or relating to any Specified Employee’s participation in such Seller Benefit Arrangement, the assets of any of the trusts under such arrangements or the sponsor or the administrator, or against any fiduciary of such Seller Benefit Arrangement with respect to the operation of such arrangements (other than routine benefits claims); in each case, other than as would not reasonably be expected to result in any material Liability to Buyer. With respect to each Seller Benefit Arrangement, if intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, such Seller Benefit Arrangement has received a favorable determination, or may rely upon a favorable opinion letter, from the Internal Revenue Service that it is so qualified and, to the Knowledge of Sellers, nothing has occurred since the date of such letter that could reasonably be expected to affect the qualified status of such Seller Benefit Arrangement. SamCo has not incurred (whether or not assessed), and is not reasonably expected to incur or to be subject to, any Tax or other penalty with respect to the reporting requirements under Sections 6055 and 6056 of the Code, as applicable, or under Section 4980B, 4980D or 4980H of the Code.

(j) During the immediately preceding six (6) years, neither of Sellers nor any of their ERISA Affiliates or predecessors has contributed to, been required to contribute to, participated in, or had any Liability with respect to, any plan subject to Section 302 or Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 or 4971 of the Code, in each case, that could reasonably be expected to result in any Liability to Buyer. SamCo has no Liability to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or otherwise under Title IV of ERISA, including on account of an ERISA Affiliate.

(k) Neither of Sellers nor any of their ERISA Affiliates contributes or is required to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or “multiple employer plan” within the meaning of Sections 4063 and 4064 of ERISA or Section 413(c) of the Code, in each case, in respect of any Specified Employees.

(l) Except as required by Applicable Law, no Seller Benefit Arrangement entitles any Specified Employee or dependent or beneficiary thereof to any post-termination or post-retirement health or welfare benefits, in each case, other than any continuation coverage required by COBRA for which the covered Person pays the full cost of coverage.

(m) Neither the execution of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (alone or in conjunction with any other event) (i) result in any payment becoming due to any Specified Employee or any other current or former employee, officer, director or other service provider of Sellers or their Affiliates that would be an Assumed Liability, (ii) increase any benefits otherwise payable to any Transferred Employee, or (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits for any Transferred Employee. The transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not constitute a “change in ownership or control” of Sellers or any of their Affiliates within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

(n) Neither Seller nor any of their Affiliates is bound to provide a gross-up or otherwise reimburse any Specified Employee for Taxes paid pursuant to Section 409A or 4999 of the Code.

2.23 Ultimate Parent Entity. Aware is the “ultimate parent entity” (as defined in 16 C.F.R. Section 7 8 801.1(a)(3) and (b)) of each of BCBSM, Stella Resources Co., Inc. and MII Life.

2.24 No Other Representations and Warranties. Except with respect to the representations and warranties of such Seller set forth in this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, such Seller makes no guarantees, representations or warranties to Buyer in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life or the Units in the case of Aware, and hereby disclaim all liability and responsibility for any statement or information made, communicated or furnished (orally or in writing) to Buyer, other than in this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, including without limitation any opinion, information, projection, or advice that may have been or may be provided to Buyer by such Seller in anticipation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including any information, documents or material made available by such Seller to Buyer in connection with Buyer’s due diligence process. Buyer expressly acknowledges and agrees that Buyer is not relying on any other representations or warranties of such Seller, including the accuracy or completeness of any such other representations and warranties, whether express or implied. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Acquired Assets and the Units shall be sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed and delivered to Buyer on the Closing Date “AS IS, WHERE IS” without any warranty or recourse whatsoever against such Seller. SUCH SELLER DOES NOT MAKE AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, AND BUYER EXPRESSLY WAIVES, ANY WARRANTIES OTHER THAN SUCH SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IN ANY ANCILLARY DOCUMENT, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR ALLEGEDLY ARISING FROM ANY USAGE OR ANY TRADE OR FROM ANY COURSE OF DEALING.

(d) Communications with Customers of the Spending Account Business. MII Life and Buyer shall develop a mutually acceptable joint communication plan (the “Communication Plan”) (i) to educate MII Life’s Spending Account Business customers (e.g., Account holders, employers that are parties to Employer Agreements, and health plans that are parties to Health Plan Agreements) about the benefits of the Accounts that will be available from Buyer or its Affiliates to such customers as of the Closing, (ii) to inform such customers, as applicable, of the resignation of MII life as custodian of the Purchased Accounts and the appointment of Buyer or its Affiliate as successor custodian of the Purchased Accounts and (iii) to distribute Buyer’s (or any Affiliate thereof) form HSA custodial agreement and other account documentation to holders of Purchased Accounts, provided that any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by MII Life in connection with this Section 4.2(d) shall be borne solely by Buyer.

4.5 Exclusivity. Until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VII, each Seller agrees that neither such Seller, nor any of its controlled Affiliates or any of its or its controlled Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers, employees, attorneys, investment bankers, accountants, agents, advisors or other representatives shall, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate or engage in (including by way of furnishing information) or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding or furnish any action with respect to any negotiations, proposals, or offers of any kind with respect to the disposition of such Seller or part or all of its Spending Account Business in the case of MII Life or the Units in the case of Aware (in each case, whether by asset sale, merger, acquisition, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, unit issuance, unit issuance, debt or equity investment, consolidation or similar transaction). If a Seller, or any of its Affiliates or any of its or its Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers, employees, attorneys, investment bankers, accountants, agents, advisors or other representatives receives an offer to purchase or acquire (in each case, whether by asset sale, merger, acquisition, business combination, reorganization, recapitalization, unit issuance, unit issuance, debt or equity investment, consolidation or similar transaction) all or any part of SamCo, or part or all of MII Life’s Spending Account Business, such Seller shall, within five (5) Business Days of the receipt of such offer, provide written notice of such offer to Buyer along with the details thereof (including the identity of such Person and copies of any proposals and the specific terms and conditions discussed or proposed). During the period from the date of this Agreement through the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, Sellers shall exercise their rights under any confidentiality agreement with any Person (other than Buyer) relating to a proposed transaction to direct such Person to return or destroy any confidential information of Sellers provided thereunder.

4.6 Accrued Interest on Account Deposits in Purchased Accounts. On the Closing Date, MII Life shall deposit into each Purchased Account all accrued but previously unpaid interest payable on such Purchased Account through such date (including a prorated amount of interest in the event the Closing Date occurs mid-month).

4.7 Representation and Warranty Insurance. Buyer covenants and agrees that any R&W Insurance Policy, if any, obtained by Buyer in connection with this Agreement shall expressly require the Insurer to waive any right of subrogation against each Seller, except in cases of fraud.

4.8 Termination of Related Party Contracts. Effective as of the Closing, except as set forth on Schedule 4.8, each Contract between SamCo or MII Life in respect of its Spending Account Business, on the one hand, and either Seller or any Affiliate of either Seller, on the other the hand (each, a “Related Party Contract”), will be automatically terminated and of no further effect, with no further liability of any party thereto, and Sellers shall execute any and all instruments reasonably requested by Buyer in connection therewith.

4.9 Release.

(a) In further consideration of the transactions contemplated hereby, each Seller for itself and on behalf of its controlled Affiliates hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, waives and holds Buyer, SamCo, their respective Affiliates, predecessors and assigns, and their respective directors (or Persons in similar positions), officers, employees, equityholders and agents harmless from and against any and all claims of any nature (the “Seller Claims”), arising from the beginning of the world to and through the Closing, except for claims that relate to such Seller’s rights under this Agreement or any of the other Ancillary Documents, or the VEBA Purchase Agreement or any of the other Ancillary Documents (as defined in the VEBA Purchase Agreement), or instruments executed pursuant to this Agreement or the VEBA Purchase Agreement (the “Release”).

4.10 Guarantee. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor, to Sellers the payment by Buyer of all of Buyer’s covenants, obligations and agreements set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligation of Buyer to pay the Consideration at the Closing in accordance with the terms herein. The Guarantor hereby waives suretyship defenses, demand of payment, protest and notice of dishonor or nonperformance of any such guaranteed obligation, and Sellers may institute a legal proceeding directly against the Guarantor to enforce their rights under this Agreement, without first instituting a legal proceeding against Buyer.

6.5 Indemnity as Sole Recourse. Without limiting the survival provisions set forth in Section ‎6.1, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ‎Article VI. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all post-Closing rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other Parties and their Affiliates and each of their respective representatives arising under or based upon any Applicable Law, except in the event of fraud or pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ‎Article VI. Nothing in this ‎Article VI shall limit any Person’s right to (a) seek and obtain any injunctive relief to which any Person shall be entitled, or (b) assert claims otherwise allowed against the R&W Insurance Policy, if any.

6.6 Method of Asserting Claims. As used herein, an “Indemnified Party” shall refer to a Buyer Indemnified Party or a Seller Indemnified Party, as applicable, and the “Indemnifying Party” shall refer to the Party or Parties obligated to indemnify such Indemnified Party.

(a) In the event that any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Proceeding made or instituted by any third party (any such third party Proceeding being referred to as a “Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is or may be obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, then such Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits material rights or defenses by reason of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to contest and assume the defense of such Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense, provided, that the Indemnifying Party (i) has a reasonable basis for concluding that such defense may be successful, (ii) diligently contests and defends such Claim, and (iii) agrees in writing to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to all Losses arising from such Claim. Notice of the intention to contest and assume the defense of such Claim shall be given by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days after the Indemnified Party’s notice of such Claim (but, in any event, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date that an answer to such Claim is due to be filed). Such contest and defense shall be conducted by reputable attorneys reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party employed by the Indemnifying Party at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party fails to give such notice or assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to undertake such defense and seek indemnification from the Indemnifying Party for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party elects to contest and assume the defense of a Claim, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled at any time, at its own cost and expense (which expense shall not constitute a Loss unless the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the Indemnifying Party is not adequately representing or, because of a conflict of interest, may not adequately represent, any interests of the Indemnified Party), to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its or their own choosing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (A) a Claim involves criminal liability, seeks equitable relief or any non-monetary remedy or award, (B) the subject matter of a Claim relates to the ongoing business of any of the Indemnified Parties, (C) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the Indemnified Party with reasonable assurance of the Indemnifying Party’s financial capacity to diligently defend such Claim, or (D) the conduct of the defense of the Claim by the Indemnifying Party could reasonably be expected to prejudice the rights or obligations of the Indemnified Party, then, in each such case, the Indemnified Party alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Claim in the first instance and, if the Indemnified Party does not contest, defend or settle such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall then have the right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Claim.

(b) The Indemnifying Parties and the Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section ‎9.2 of this Agreement, records relating to such Claim, and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses)) to the defending party the representatives of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Claim.

(c) Neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party may concede, settle or compromise any Claim without the consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) If any Indemnified Party has a claim which does not result from a Claim, the Indemnified Party shall deliver a notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party, setting forth in reasonable detail the identity, nature and estimated amount of Losses (if reasonably determinable) related to such claim or claims, with reasonable promptness and in all events prior to the expiration of the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligation hereunder. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. The Indemnifying Party shall have fifteen (15) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such fifteen (15) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification in the amount of such Claim, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If a timely objection is made in writing in accordance with this Section ‎6.6(d), the Indemnified Party shall have fifteen (15) days to respond in a written statement to the objection. If, after such fifteen (15) day period, there remains a dispute as to the claim, the Parties shall attempt in good faith for thirty (30) days to agree upon the rights of the Parties with respect to each claim before pursuing any other remedies.

6.7 Limitations on Indemnification. Except with respect to Losses due to fraud, the aggregate indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Parties under Section 6.3 or Section 6.4 shall not exceed an amount equal to the Consideration.

6.8 Adjustments to Consideration. Any indemnification payable under this ‎Article VI shall be, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, an adjustment to the Consideration.

Article VII
TERMINATION

7.1 Termination. The Parties may terminate this Agreement as provided below:

(a) Buyer and Sellers may terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time prior to the Closing;

(c) at the election of Sellers or Buyer on or after November 30, 2021 (the “End Date”); provided, that neither Sellers nor Buyer may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(c) if it is in breach of any of its obligations hereunder and such breach causes, or results in, either (i) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the obligations of the terminating party to consummate the transaction set forth in Article V prior to the End Date, or (ii) the failure of the Closing to have occurred prior to the End Date; provided, further, that no Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.1(c) in the event any other Party has initiated proceedings to specifically enforce this Agreement while such proceedings are still pending;

(d) Buyer may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Sellers at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event a Seller has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, Buyer has notified Sellers of the breach, and, if susceptible to cure, the breach has continued without cure for a period of ten (10) Business Days after the notice of breach, or (ii) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the End Date by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section ‎5.1 hereof (unless the failure of Closing to be consummated by the End Date results primarily from Buyer itself breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement); or

(e) Sellers may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event Buyer has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, Sellers have notified Buyer of the breach, and, if susceptible to cure, the breach has continued without cure for a period of ten (10) Business Days after the notice of breach or (ii) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the End Date by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section ‎5.2 hereof (unless the failure of Closing to be consummated by the End Date results primarily from a Seller themselves breaching any representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement).

7.2 Effect of Termination. If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section ‎7.1, this Agreement will become void and have no effect, and no Party will have any Liability or any further obligation to any other Party, except as provided in this Section 7.2. The obligations of the Parties to this Agreement under ‎Article VI (Survival; Indemnification), ‎Article IX (Miscellaneous) and this Section 7.2 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Article VIII
POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

8.1 Agreement Not to Compete or Solicit by Sellers and their Affiliates. Each Seller, for itself and on behalf of its controlled Affiliates, hereby acknowledges and agrees that Buyer and its Affiliates are entitled to protect and preserve the going concern value of its Spending Account Business and the Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life, and SamCo in the case of Aware, and that Buyer would not have entered into this Agreement absent the following provisions:

(a) Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation for Sellers and their Affiliates. For a period of seven (7) years from and after the Closing Date, each Seller will not, and will cause each of its controlled Affiliates not to (other than on behalf of Buyer or its Affiliates), directly or indirectly, or individually or collectively, whether as a consultant, agent, shareholder, owner, partner, director, officer, principal, member, employee, or in any other capacity or manner whatsoever, anywhere in the United States of America, do any of the following:

(i) engage in or assist others in engaging in a business competitive with the Spending Account Business as it exists as of the Closing (the “Restricted Business”); or

(ii) contact or solicit any of Buyer’s customers, clients, accounts or vendors obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (each, a “Restricted Party”) for the purposes of developing a business relationship with such Restricted Party that would reasonably be expected to adversely interfere with such Restricted Party’s relationship with the Restricted Business;

provided, that this Section ‎8.1 shall not prohibit, prevent or restrict a Seller or any of its controlled Affiliates from (x) acquiring any Person who engages in the Restricted Business if the Restricted Business does not constitute a material portion of such Person’s business at the time of acquisition or (y) cooperating with any Restricted Party as permitted under Section 5 of the Distribution Partnership Agreement; provided, further, that in the event the Distribution Partnership Agreement is terminated prior to the seven (7) year anniversary of the Closing Date, the restrictions in this Section 8.1(a) shall expire after the later of (I) the five (5) year anniversary of the Closing Date, and (II) the date on which the Distribution Partnership Agreement is terminated.

(b) For a period of three (3) years from and after the Closing Date, each Seller will not, and will cause each of its controlled Affiliates not to (other than on behalf of Buyer or its Affiliates), directly or indirectly, on its own behalf or on behalf of any third party, solicit for hire or hire any Offeree Employee other than such Persons set forth on Schedule 8.1(b), without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent may be withheld in Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) neither the placement of general advertisements or conducting general searches that may be targeted to a particular geographic or technical area, nor the hiring of any person who responds to such general advertisement or general search and (B) neither the solicitation nor the hiring of any Offeree Employee who has been terminated by Buyer, in either case described in clauses (A) or (B) shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 8.1(b).

(c) Acknowledgment. The restrictive covenants contained in this Section ‎8.1 are covenants independent of any other provision of this Agreement and the existence of any claim that a Seller or a Seller Indemnified Party may allege against Buyer or any of its Affiliates, whether based on this Agreement or otherwise, will not prevent the enforcement of the covenants in this Section ‎8.1. Each Seller, for themselves and on behalf of their controlled Affiliates, agree that Buyer and its Affiliates will be entitled to an injunction to prevent actual or threatened breaches of the provisions of this Section ‎8.1 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which Buyer or its Affiliates may be entitled at law or in equity. In the event of litigation regarding the covenants in this Section ‎8.1, the prevailing party in such litigation will, in addition to any other remedies the prevailing party may obtain in such litigation, be entitled to recover from the other party its reasonable legal fees and out of pocket costs incurred by such party in enforcing or defending its rights hereunder. To “prevail” hereunder will be determined by the trier of fact in such matter. The length of time for which the covenants in this Section ‎8.1 will be in force will include (and will be extended for) any period of violation or any other period required for litigation during which Buyer or its Affiliates seeks to enforce covenants in this Section ‎8.1. Each Seller, for themselves and on behalf of their controlled Affiliates, acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section ‎8.1 are no greater than necessary to protect Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ legitimate interests in the Spending Account Business, and covenants, for themselves and on behalf of their controlled Affiliates, not to agree or argue to the contrary. If a court of competent jurisdiction should conclude that any provision contained herein is too broad or restrictive to be enforceable, then the Parties agree that the court will have the authority to modify such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make the provision reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, the provision shall be fully enforceable. The provisions of this Section ‎8.1, rather than Section ‎9.16, shall apply to enforcement of the covenants set forth in this Section ‎8.1.

8.2 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Reporting. MII Life shall provide all Tax reporting that it is required to provide under Applicable Law or otherwise to Purchased Account holders related to the Purchased Accounts for all periods prior to the Closing. Such Tax reporting shall be at MII Life’s sole cost and expense.

(b) Tax Allocation of Consideration. The Parties agree that the Consideration, and any other amount treated as consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, that is apportioned between the Acquired Assets and the Units pursuant to Section 1.8 will be allocated among the Acquired Assets and the assets of SamCo in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Proposed Allocation”). The Proposed Allocation will be prepared in accordance with the methodology set forth on Exhibit E hereto. The Proposed Allocation will be delivered by Buyer to Sellers within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date. Buyer and Sellers will work in good faith to resolve any disputes relating to the Proposed Allocation within ten (10) days after the delivery of the Proposed Allocation to Sellers. If Buyer and Sellers do not reach an agreement within such period, the dispute will be submitted to an independent public accounting firm which is mutually agreeable to Buyer and Sellers (the “Independent Accountants”) for resolution applying the principles, policies and practices referred to in this Section 8.2. If issues are submitted to the Independent Accountants for resolution, (i) Sellers and Buyer shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Accountants such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues as the Independent Accountants may request and are available to that Party and its agents and shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accountants any material relating to the disputed issues and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accountants; and (ii) the determination by the Independent Accountants, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to Sellers and Buyer within thirty (30) days after the submission to the Independent Accountants of the issues remaining in dispute, shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties. The fees and costs of (A) the Independent Accountants for such determination and (B) any enforcement of its determination, shall be borne by Sellers on one hand and Buyer on the other hand in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accountants, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accountants at the time of their resolution of the matters in dispute. The Proposed Allocation, as accepted or as finally agreed or determined, will be the “Final Allocation” and Buyer and Sellers will prepare and file all statements, forms, and Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation, and neither Buyer nor Sellers will take a position that is inconsistent with the Final Allocation before any Governmental Body or in any proceeding relating to Taxes except as otherwise required by a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or equivalent provision of state, local, or foreign Law).

(c) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, registration, value-added and other similar Taxes including, for the avoidance of doubt, any real property transfer taxes, and related fees (including any penalties, interest and additions to Tax) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid 50% by Buyer and 50% by Sellers. Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate in timely making all filings, returns, reports and forms as may be required to comply with the provisions of any Applicable Law and to the extent any exemptions from such Taxes are available Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate to prepare any certificates or other documents necessary to claim such exemptions.

8.3 Books and Records. From and after the Closing, each Party shall preserve and keep all Books and Records, Account Information and Files and other information to the extent relating to the accounting, business and financial affairs of its Spending Account Business or Acquired Assets in the case of MII Life and SamCo in the case of Aware, that relate to the period prior to the Closing Date, for six (6) years after the Closing Date or such longer time as required by Applicable Law.

8.4 Use of Names. Promptly, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days following the earlier of (x) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the VEBA Purchase Agreement or (y) the termination of the VEBA Purchase Agreement, each Seller shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, (a) cease and discontinue any and all uses of the Trademarks included in the Owned Intellectual Property, including any translations thereof or Trademarks confusingly similar thereto, (b) remove, destroy or irrevocably strike over the labeling, stationery, forms, supplies, displays, advertising and promotional materials, manuals, and other materials existing as of the Closing Date that bear any such Trademarks, (c) remove all such Trademarks from all assets, websites, email and other online materials and from all signage and other displays, and (d) change all corporate names (including any applicable Sellers’ corporate names) with all applicable Governmental Bodies to corporate names that do not encompass or include any such Trademarks. Neither Seller nor any of its controlled Affiliates shall seek to register in any jurisdiction any trade, corporate or business name, Trademark or other name or source identifier that is a derivation, translation, adaptation, combination or variation of, or confusingly similar to, any such Trademarks.

8.5 Employee Matters.

(a) Specified Employee Census. Following the date hereof, Sellers shall update the Specified Employee Census periodically prior to the Closing Date to reflect new hires, leaves of absence, and employment terminations and shall provide a final update of the Specified Employee Census no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date.

(b) Offers of Employment. Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, not less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or such earlier time as may be required by Applicable Law), extend offers of employment that are effective as of the Closing Date to each Specified Employee (other than any Inactive Specified Employee or the Specified Employees identified on Schedule 8.5(b)) listed on the Specified Employee Census (each, an “Offeree Employee”). Buyer shall provide Sellers with Buyer’s offer letter template for informational purposes only at least three (3) Business Days prior to extending such offers of employment to the Offeree Employees. All such offers of employment to Offeree Employees shall provide for employment with Buyer or its Affiliate to commence effective as of the Closing and shall otherwise be on terms acceptable to Buyer, subject to standard benefits, policies, procedures and employment practices of Buyer. Each Offeree Employee who accepts Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s offer of employment and commences employment with Buyer or its Affiliate as described in the immediately following sentence shall be referred to herein as a “Transferred Employee.” Except for the outstanding employment offers to each of the Specified Employees identified on Schedule 8.5(b), neither Seller nor any of its controlled Affiliates shall knowingly cause or attempt to cause any Offeree Employee to reject or decline to accept Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s offer of employment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as an employment contract between Buyer and any Specified Employee or Transferred Employee. Buyer shall promptly provide Sellers a list of the name of each Offeree Employee that rejects Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s offer of employment and the cash salary, annual cash bonus opportunity and health care coverage offered to each such Offeree Employee, and thereafter Sellers shall, or shall cause their controlled Affiliates to, (i) terminate the employment of each Offeree Employee who expressly rejects Buyer’s offer of employment promptly, but in any event not later than the Closing Date and (ii) terminate the employment of each Offeree Employee who does not affirmatively accept Buyer’s offer of employment, effective as of the later of ten (10) Business Days following the date of such offer of employment or the Closing Date, except as required under Section 8.5(c) with respect to Inactive Specified Employees; provided, however, that the foregoing obligations of Sellers and their controlled Affiliates shall not apply to any Offeree Employee who receives an offer from Buyer or its Affiliate that (x) does not provide for cash salary and annual cash bonus opportunity that is equal to or greater than such Offeree Employee’s cash salary and annual cash bonus opportunity specified on the Specified Employee Census or (y) does not include health care coverage. From the date of the execution of this Agreement until the Closing Date, to the extent they remained employed by Sellers or their controlled Affiliates, Sellers will cause, or will cause their controlled Affiliates to cause, each of the Specified Employees identified on Schedule 8.5(b) to continue to be engaged in the Spending Account Business in a manner consistent with past practice and to facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Following the Closing Date, to the extent they remain employed by Sellers or their controlled Affiliates, Sellers will cause, or will cause their controlled Affiliates to cause, each of the Specified Employees on Schedule 8.5(b) to be available to Buyer and its Affiliates at no cost to provide, on an ad hoc basis, cooperation reasonably requested by Buyer or its Affiliates to facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to provide advice and consultation regarding the operation of the Spending Account Business.

(c) Special Provisions for Inactive Specified Employees. With respect to any Specified Employee listed on the Specified Employee Census who is not actively working on the Closing Date as a result of an approved leave of absence, whether paid or unpaid, including military leave with reemployment rights under federal law, leave under the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 and short-term or long-term disability leave (an “Inactive Specified Employee”), Buyer shall make an offer of employment in the manner required by Section 8.5(b) to any Inactive Specified Employee who returns to active status within six (6) months following the Closing Date for a position that is substantially similar to the position held by such Inactive Specified Employee as of the Closing Date. Unless and until an Inactive Employee returns to active status within such time period and accepts the offer of employment made by Buyer, the Inactive Employee shall continue to be employed by Sellers or their Affiliates. An Inactive Specified Employee who accepts the offer of employment in accordance with this Section 8.5(c) and actually commences employment with Buyer or its Affiliate shall be considered a Transferred Employee effective as of 12:01 a.m. Minneapolis time on the date such Inactive Specified Employee actually commences employment with Buyer or its Affiliate.

(d) Service Credit. Buyer or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall recognize the service credited to a Transferred Employee as of the Closing Date to the extent recognized under the Seller Benefit Arrangements for purposes of eligibility or vesting under Buyer’s employee benefits plans, programs, arrangements and policies in which a Transferred Employee may participate, including but not limited to vacation days and paid time off policies, severance practices, and 401(k) vesting (each, a “Buyer Plan”); provided that such service shall not be recognized (i) to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits, (ii) with respect to any plan Buyer or its Affiliates, as applicable, may establish after the Closing for which prior service is not taken into account for any participant, (iii) with respect to any equity or equity-based compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement or (iv) for purposes of benefit accruals under any defined benefit pension plan or retiree health or welfare plan or arrangement. In addition, Buyer or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to waive any waiting period under any Buyer Plan. With respect to any welfare benefit plans (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates effective as of the Closing Date in which a Transferred Employee may participate on or after the Closing Date, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (x) cause to be waived any pre-existing condition limitations, (y) give effect in determining deductible and maximum out-of-pocket limitations to claims incurred and amounts paid by and amounts reimbursed to, such employees with respect to similar plans maintained by Sellers or their Affiliates prior to the Closing Date and (z) permit those Transferred Employees who are eligible as of the Closing Date to participate in Buyer’s welfare plans to participate as soon as practicable in any applicable welfare plan of Buyer.

(e) COBRA Continuation Coverage. Sellers agree that Sellers or their Affiliates will be responsible for providing COBRA Continuation Coverage (and for providing any notices related thereto) attributable to “qualifying events” with respect to any Specified Employee who does not become a Transferred Employee and his or her beneficiaries and dependents, whether occurring before, on or after the Closing Date.

(f) Accrued Vacation; Bonuses. On or as soon as practicable following the Closing Date, but in no event later than the first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Closing Date, each Seller or its controlled Affiliates shall pay out (i) all accrued but unused vacation days or paid time-off to Transferred Employees and any retention bonuses set forth on the Specified Employee Census and (ii) any transaction bonuses. Each Seller or its controlled Affiliates shall also pay out to Transferred Employees a pro-rata portion of bonuses for the 2021 calendar year (or portion thereof), based on the number of days a Transferred Employee worked for Seller or its controlled Affiliate, as applicable, during the applicable performance period through the Closing Date, attributable to the Corporate Incentive Plan (CIP), Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), Pay for Performance Plan (PFP) and Sales Incentive Plan (SIP), subject to any required internal corporate approvals which Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain consistent with the intent of this provision. Buyer or its Affiliate agrees to provide each Transferred Employee with an initial balance of forty (40) hours of paid time-off effective as of the commencement of each Transferred Employee’s employment with Buyer or its Affiliate.

(g) Liability. Without limiting the generality of Section 1.3(b), neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall assume or have any direct or indirect obligation or liability of any nature, whether matured or unmatured, accrued or contingent, due or to become due or otherwise, with respect to any Excluded Employee Liability (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Specified Employee’s accrued but unused vacation days or paid time-off) or to any Specified Employee or other present or former employee of Sellers or their respective Affiliates, or to any dependent, survivor or beneficiary thereof, arising out of or in relation to such Person’s employment with Sellers or their Affiliates or the termination of such employment. In no event shall Buyer or its Affiliates be responsible for severance payments to any Specified Employee who does not accept Buyer’s (or its Affiliate’s) offer of employment made pursuant to this Section 8.5.

(h) Cooperation. Prior to and following the Closing, subject to Applicable Law, each Seller shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with Buyer and its Affiliates with respect to payroll administration, employee benefit plan administration and such other integration efforts related to the Specified Employees as reasonably requested by Buyer and its Affiliates, and to provide to Buyer and its Affiliates, in a timely manner, information that Buyer or its Affiliates may reasonably request prior to and following the Closing with respect to the terms and conditions of the Specified Employees’ employment and employee information necessary to establish payroll and enroll Specified Employees in the Buyer Plans.

(i) Communications. Prior to the Closing, Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith to develop appropriate communications to Specified Employees who are expected to become Transferred Employees regarding the transactions contemplated hereby. Prior to making any written or broad-based oral communications to the Specified Employees who are expected to become Transferred Employees pertaining to the effect upon employment, compensation or benefits that will result as a consequence of the transactions, Sellers shall provide Buyer with a copy of the intended communication, Buyer shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on the communication and Sellers and Buyer shall cooperate in providing any such mutually agreeable communication.

(j) Rights. Without limiting Section 9.4, nothing herein expressed or implied shall confer upon any Transferred Employee or other employee or former employee of Sellers or their Affiliates or legal representatives thereof, any rights or remedies, including right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, under or by reason of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be construed as the creation, amendment or modification of any employee benefit plan, program, arrangement or agreement of Sellers or Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or prevent the creation, amendment or termination of any such plan, program, arrangement or agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions contained in this Section 8.5 are included for the sole benefit of the Parties, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall create any third party beneficiary or other rights in any other Person, including any Transferred Employee, Specified Employee, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof.

8.6 Amendments to R&W Insurance Policy. In connection with the R&W Insurance Policy, if any, Buyer covenants and agrees not to, and to ensure that its officers, managers, members, directors, agents and representatives do not, take any action (or omit to take any action) the effect of which would be to modify the Insurer’s waiver of subrogation rights contained in the R&W Insurance Policy, in a manner adverse to Sellers without the prior written consent of Sellers.

8.7 License of Excluded Intellectual Property.

(a) Effective as of the Closing Date, with respect to any Excluded Intellectual Property used in the Spending Account Business during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date hereof, Sellers do hereby, and shall cause their controlled Affiliates to, grant to Buyer and its Affiliates a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-terminable, non-sublicensable (except as set forth within Section 8.7(b)), non-transferable (except as set forth within Section 8.7(c)), non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up license to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, provide, commercialize, practice, copy, perform, display, render, develop, create derivative works from and otherwise exploit such Excluded Intellectual Property solely in substantially the same manner and scope such Excluded Intellectual Property was used in connection with the Spending Account Business as conducted during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date hereof, including any natural improvements and extensions to the Spending Account Business, which license shall survive any transfer, whether in whole or in part, of any such licensed Excluded Intellectual Property. At any time until twelve (12) months after the Closing Date, Buyer may request, and Sellers shall provide, one (1) copy of any Software included in such licensed Excluded Intellectual Property, if any, including documentation and source code that is reasonably available, that (i) is subject to the license granted to Buyer under this Section 8.7(a); (ii) has not already been provided to Buyer, and (iii) is not otherwise in the possession of Buyer or its Affiliates. Buyer shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain any Trade Secrets contained within such licensed Excluded Intellectual Property as confidential, including refraining from disclosing such Trade Secrets to any other Person who is not bound by obligations of confidentiality other than pursuant to reasonable confidentiality terms (including in connection with sublicenses). Any improvements or modifications to, or derivative works of, such licensed Excluded Intellectual Property made by or on behalf of Buyer or its Affiliates shall be owned by Sellers; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, all such improvements, modifications and derivative works shall be deemed to be included within the Excluded Intellectual Property.

(b) Buyer may sublicense the rights contained within Section 8.7(a) without prior written consent of Sellers only to any of their respective suppliers, contractors, consultants or representatives for the purpose of providing products and services to or otherwise acting on behalf of and at the direction of Buyer or its Affiliates and in any event in a manner consistent with how such party sublicenses its own comparable Intellectual Property.

(c) Buyer may not assign the rights contained within Section 8.7(a) without the prior written consent of Sellers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that Buyer may assign or transfer such rights in whole or in part without the prior written consent of Sellers in connection with any merger, public offering, consolidation, reorganization, or sale of any divisions, businesses, operating units or portion of such party or its respective Affiliates or substantially all of the assets related to any such division, business, operating unit or portion.

Article IX
MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Press Releases and Public Announcements.
