PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS PURCHASE AGREEMENT made as of this 18^th day of December, 2009 (this “Agreement”) by and among ENPRO INDUSTRIES, INC., a North Carolina corporation (the “Parent”), COLTEC INDUSTRIES, INC., a Pennsylvania corporation (the “Seller”), FULCRUM ACQUISITION LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Buyer”), and ATLAS COPCO (CHINA) INVESTMENT COMPANY LTD. (the “Chinese Buyer”):

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Seller desires to sell the Business Unit to the Buyer, and the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer desire to acquire the Business Unit, by purchasing the U.S. Assets and the China Equity Capital, respectively, in exchange for the Purchase Price, as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the respective representations, warranties, mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Parent, the Seller, the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Capitalized terms have the meaning assigned thereto in ARTICLE XVI and otherwise in this Agreement.

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS AND EQUITY CAPITAL

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Assets and Equity Capital. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, (a) on the Closing Date and at the Closing, the Seller shall sell, assign, convey and transfer to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall acquire from the Seller, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the U.S. Assets, and (b) on the China Closing Date, the Seller shall sell, assign, convey and transfer to the Chinese Buyer, and the Chinese Buyer shall acquire from the Seller, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the China Equity Capital.

Section 1.2 Purchase Price and Payment.

(a) The aggregate purchase price for the U.S. Assets and the China Equity Capital (the “Purchase Price”) shall be equal to USD 190,000,000 (the “Base Purchase Price”) plus the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities. The Base Purchase Price shall be adjusted as provided in ARTICLE II.

(b) The purchase price for the China Equity Capital shall be equal to USD 5,800,000 (the “China Base Purchase Price Amount”). The Chinese Buyer shall pay an amount equal to the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by Q-Tech as of the Closing Date (the “China Cash Payment”) at the same time as the Chinese Buyer pays the China Base Purchase Price Amount. The Chinese Buyer shall make such payment in cash to the Parent as

soon as practicable after the Chinese Buyer obtains approval from the China State Administration of Foreign Exchange to remit overseas such payment.

(c) The Buyer shall pay the Base Purchase Price, less the China Base Purchase Price Amount in cash to the Seller, on the Closing Date.

The Chinese Buyer’s obligation to pay the China Base Purchase Price Amount and the China Cash Payment as set forth herein shall be absolute and without any right of set-off by the China Buyer or its Affiliates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the China Closing Date does not occur prior to the China Outside Date, the Buyer shall pay to the Parent the China Base Purchase Price Amount (but not the China Cash Payment) on the China Outside Date.

Section 1.3 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Buyer acknowledges that, as a result of the purchase of the U.S. Assets and the China Equity Capital, neither the Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall have any right, title or interest in or to any of the Excluded Assets.

Section 1.4 Assumed Liabilities and Obligations. On the Closing Date and at the Closing, the Seller shall assign to the Buyer, and the Buyer shall assume and agree to thereafter pay, satisfy, perform and discharge, when due, the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 1.5 Retained Liabilities and Obligations. The Assumed Liabilities shall not include, and the Seller shall not assign to the Buyer and the Buyer shall not assume, any of the Retained Liabilities.

Section 1.6 Purchase Price Allocation. The parties agree to allocate the Purchase Price between the U.S. Assets and the China Equity Capital and among the U.S. Assets and other relevant items in a manner consistent with an allocation schedule to be agreed to by the Seller and the Buyer prior to the Closing Date (the “Allocation Schedule”) and to file all Tax Returns and other reports and documentation in a manner consistent with such Allocation Schedule. In the event the parties cannot agree on a specific allocation of the purchase price for Tax purposes, pursuant to the Allocation Schedule, the matter shall be submitted to an Independent Accountant for resolution immediately following the Closing Date. The Seller shall pay 50% and the Buyer shall pay 50% of the costs of the Independent Accountant engaged pursuant to this Section 1.6.

ARTICLE II

TOTAL NET ASSET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

Section 2.1 Closing Balance Sheet. As promptly as practicable, but in any event within 60 days following the Closing Date, the Seller shall prepare and deliver to the Buyer a closing balance sheet of the Business Unit as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”). The Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently with past practices of the Business Unit as evidenced by the balance sheets included in the Financial Statements, subject to the exceptions to GAAP disclosed in Section 2.1 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. Along with the Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller

will deliver to the Buyer the computation of the Total Net Asset Amount as of the Effective Time as calculated from the Closing Balance Sheet. As used in this Agreement, the term “Total Net Asset Amount” means the net book value of the U.S. Assets and the assets held by Q-Tech as of immediately prior to the Effective Time less the net book value of the Assumed Liabilities and the liabilities of Q-Tech as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (and shall exclude the Excluded Assets and Retained Liabilities) determined based on the Closing Balance Sheet, provided that the Total Net Asset Amount shall exclude all additions to accumulated depreciation or amortization recognized after December 31, 2009. Each party shall provide the other party and its representatives with reasonable access to books and records and relevant personnel during preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the resolution of any disputes that may occur pursuant to this ARTICLE II.

Section 2.2 Disputes.

(a) Subject to clause (b) of this Section 2.2, the Closing Balance Sheet and the Total Net Asset Amount calculation delivered by the Seller to the Buyer shall be deemed to be and shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto. If the Seller fails to timely deliver the Closing Balance Sheet within such 60 day period provided in Section 2.1, then the Buyer shall have the right, at any time thereafter, upon 20 days prior notice to Seller to prepare the Closing Balance Sheet and calculate the Total Net Asset Amount; provided, however, that if Seller prepares and delivers to Buyer the Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Total Net Asset Amount (together with all related work papers) within said 20 day period, then Buyer shall not have the right to prepare the Closing Balance Sheet or calculate the Total Net Asset and the terms and provisions of this ARTICLE II (including, without limitation, the other provisions of this Section 2.2) shall continue to be applicable with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet and calculation of Total Net Asset Amount prepared by Seller. If Buyer prepares the Closing Balance Sheet and calculation of Total Net Asset Amount pursuant to the foregoing provision, then Seller shall have the same rights, pursuant to this Section 2.2, with respect to the Buyer’s calculations and Closing Balance Sheet items as Buyer would have had with respect to Seller’s preparation of same and the provisions of Section 2.2(b) and clause (i) of Section 2.3 shall apply mutatis mutandis, with the Buyer having the rights and obligations of Seller specified thereunder and vice versa.

(b) If the Buyer has any dispute with respect to the Total Net Asset Amount as calculated from the Closing Balance Sheet, the Buyer shall notify the Seller in writing of each disputed item, specifying the amount thereof in dispute and setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature of such dispute and the basis therefor, within 60 days of the Seller’s delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet to the Buyer. In the event of such a dispute, the Seller and the Buyer shall in good faith attempt to resolve any such dispute, and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties hereto for all purposes, including for purposes of ARTICLE XIII, with respect to the Total Net Asset Amount and the items covered thereby. If the parties are unable to resolve any such dispute within 30 days after notice is given by the Buyer to the Seller pursuant to the preceding sentence, the parties shall submit the items remaining in dispute for resolution to the Independent Accountant. Promptly, but no later than 30 days after the dispute is submitted to the Independent Accountant, the Independent Accountant shall determine, based solely on presentations by the Seller and the Buyer, and not by independent review, only those issues remaining in dispute and shall render a

report as to the dispute and the resulting computation of the Total Net Asset Amount and the adjustment or adjustments provided for in Section 2.3 based on the Closing Balance Sheet, if any, which shall be final, binding and conclusive on the parties. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accountant shall be bound by the provisions of this ARTICLE II and may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either party. The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant (i) shall be borne by the Buyer in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted that are unsuccessfully disputed by the Buyer (as finally determined by the Independent Accountant) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of such items so submitted (taking into account any offers of compromise made at least 10 days prior to submission to the Independent Accountant) and (ii) shall be borne by the Seller in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of such remaining disputed items so submitted that are successfully disputed by the Buyer (as finally determined by the Independent Accountant) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of such items so submitted (taking into account any offers of compromise made at least 10 days prior to submission to the Independent Accountant). Whether any dispute is resolved by agreement among the parties or by the Independent Accountant, changes to the Total Net Asset Amount shall be made hereunder only for items which the Buyer has disputed as provided herein. The Seller and the Buyer each shall make available to the other (upon the request of the other) their work papers generated internally in connection with the preparation or review of the Closing Balance Sheet. Any amounts payable pursuant to this ARTICLE II which are not in dispute (the amount otherwise payable net of any disputed amount) shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.3, notwithstanding that other amounts may remain in dispute.

(c) As used in this Agreement, “Independent Accountant” means RSM McGladrey, Inc., or in the event of a conflict, another nationally recognized independent public accounting firm that currently does not audit and has not audited within the past two years the Seller or the Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates, as shall be agreed upon by the Seller and the Buyer or, if an agreement cannot be reached within 10 days of the expiration of the 30-day period set forth in the third sentence of Section 2.2(b), as shall be selected by the American Arbitration Association upon the request of either the Seller or the Buyer.

Section 2.3 Total Net Asset Amount Adjustment. The Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Total Net Asset Amount shall be deemed final for the purposes of this Section 2.3 upon the earliest of (i) the failure of the Buyer to deliver to the Seller a notice of dispute within 60 days of the Seller’s delivery of the Closing Balance Sheet to the Buyer, (ii) the resolution of all disputes, pursuant to Section 2.2(b), by the Seller and the Buyer, and (iii) the resolution of all disputes, pursuant to Section 2.2(b), by the Independent Accountant. Within three Business Days of the Closing Balance Sheet being deemed final, the adjustment or adjustments of the Base Purchase Price shall be made as follows:

(a) in the event that the Total Net Asset Amount calculated with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet exceeds USD 48,500,000, then the Buyer shall pay to the Seller the amount of such excess as set forth below; and

(b) in the event that the Total Net Asset Amount calculated with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet is less than USD 47,500,000, then the Seller shall pay to the Buyer the amount of such deficiency as set forth below.

Any payment required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be made in cash within three Business Days of the final determination of any such adjustment or adjustments pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.3, such payment to be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the party to which payment is due.

Each of Q-Tech and the Seller is duly licensed or qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which, with respect to the Business Unit, the character of the properties and assets now owned or leased by it or the nature of the business now conducted by it requires it to be so licensed or qualified, except, in each case, where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 4.2 Approval. Each of the Parent and the Seller has all requisite power and authority to enter into, and perform its obligations under, this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The execution and delivery by the Parent and the Seller of this Agreement and the execution and delivery by the Parent and the Seller of each of the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party, the performance by each of the Parent and the Seller of their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation by each of the Parent and the Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite

This Agreement has been, and at the Closing the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party will have been, duly executed and delivered by the Parent and the Seller and (assuming the valid authorization, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents by the Buyer or the relevant Buyer Affiliate) constitute (in the case of the Ancillary Documents upon execution and delivery by the Parent and the Seller, as applicable, at Closing) valid and binding obligations of the Parent and the Seller enforceable against the Parent and the Seller in accordance with their terms, except to the extent such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 4.3 Consents. No material Governmental Approval is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Parent and the Seller of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents or the taking by them of any other action contemplated hereby or thereby (excluding Governmental Approvals, if any, which the Buyer is required to obtain or make, as to which no representations or warranties are made), except for Governmental Approvals required under the HSR Act, approval of the transfer of China Equity Capital by the relevant China Authorities and as set forth in Section 4.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. As used in this Agreement in respect of the Seller, Q-Tech or the Business Unit, the term “material” means material to the business, properties, results of operations or financial condition of the Business Unit, taken as a whole.

Section 4.5 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule sets forth a true and complete list of (i) all material Permits used in conduct and operation of the Business Unit other than those used or held by Q-Tech and (ii) all material Permits held by Q-Tech (the “Q-Tech Permits”).

This Agreement has been, and at the Closing, the Ancillary Documents will have been, duly executed and delivered by the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer, as applicable, and (assuming the valid authorization, execution, and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents by the Seller and the Parent) constitute (in the case of the Ancillary Documents upon execution and delivery by the Parent and the Seller party thereto at Closing) valid and binding obligations of the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer enforceable against such parties in accordance with their terms, except to the extent such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Section 5.3 Consents. No material Governmental Approval is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Buyer of this Agreement or by the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer of the Ancillary Documents to which they are a party or the taking by them of any other action contemplated hereby or thereby (excluding Governmental Approvals, if any, which the Seller is required to obtain or make, as to which no representations or warranties are made), except for those required under the HSR Act and approval of the transfer of China Equity Capital by the relevant China authorities as set forth in Section 4.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule.

Section 5.9 Investment Interest.

The Chinese Buyer understands that the China Equity Capital is characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Seller in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances.

Such reasonable best efforts shall include an obligation by the Buyer to divest or hold separate any product line or business if necessary in order to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act or to obtain the relevant approvals under the HSR Act or any other competition or merger control Laws or to resolve or settle any objection or litigation of any Governmental Authority or to have lifted, vacated, reversed or overturned any Governmental Order; provided that the Buyer specifically shall not be required to so divest or hold separate any product line or business or to otherwise take any similar actions that would cause the HSR Commitment to exceed USD 5,000,0000. If efforts to resolve any objections are unsuccessful and any Governmental Authority institutes any Action challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Law, the Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate with each other and use reasonable best efforts to contest and resist vigorously any such Action and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of any such transactions and the Buyer shall reimburse the Seller, Q-Tech and the Parent for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by either of them in connection with any such Action or in connection with any request for additional information or documentary material pursuant to HSR Act Section 18a(e)(1)(a) from any Governmental Authority; provided, however, that the Buyer shall only be responsible to reimburse the Seller for the attorneys’ fees of any legal counsel jointly engaged by the Buyer and the Seller.

Section 6.5 Confidentiality; No Hire. The Seller, the Buyer and the Parent agree that the Confidentiality Agreement dated February 10, 2009 between the Buyer and the Parent (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) shall remain in full force and effect and binding upon the Seller and the Buyer (a) at all times prior to the Closing and (b) after any termination of this Agreement, and each agrees to comply with the terms of such Confidentiality Agreement.

the Buyer or its representatives have come into contact in connection with the due diligence process or the transactions contemplated hereby, provided however that hiring any such employees shall not constitute a violation of the foregoing restriction if such hiring is a result of general solicitations for employment.

ARTICLE VII

POST-CLOSING COVENANTS OF THE SELLER AND PARENT

The Seller and the Parent hereby covenant and agree with the Buyer as follows:

Section 7.1 Noncompetition. In the event of the Closing, then for a period of four (4) years after the Closing Date (the “Noncompete Period”), the Parent shall not, and shall cause its controlled affiliates not to, sell, manufacture or distribute any of the Products set forth in Section 7.1 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Competitive Products”) to customers anywhere in the world; provided that the foregoing restriction shall not restrict either the Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates from acquiring or combining with a business that provides, sells, manufactures or distributes Competitive Products (or providing, selling, manufacturing or distributing Competitive Products as a result of such acquisition or combination), so long as the

sale of Competitive Products does not exceed 20% of the net annual sales of the acquired business as of the date of acquisition or combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates may acquire or combine with a business or Person that has sales of Competitive Products exceeding 20% of its net annual sales if the Parent or such controlled Affiliate, as applicable, uses commercially reasonable efforts to divest the portion of such business that sells such Competitive Products within two (2) years after its acquisition. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the restrictions in this Section 7.1 shall not prohibit either the Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates from (i) conducting any business conducted by such Person as of the date of this Agreement (other than the business conducted by the Business Unit), including, specifically, the business of the Seller’s Compressor Products International (CPI) business; (ii) selling any Competitive Product after such time as the Buyer (including its successors and assigns with respect to the Business Unit) ceases to sell or attempt to sell such Competitive Product; (iii) holding or having an economic, non-controlling interest in up to five percent (5%) of the outstanding issued share capital of a company listed on any recognized national stock exchange; or (iv) at the request of the Buyer, fulfilling for the benefit of the Buyer or on its behalf any obligation pursuant to this Agreement or any agreement to be entered into pursuant to this Agreement. The obligations of the Parent and its controlled Affiliates pursuant to this Section 7.1 shall terminate: (A) as to any such Affiliate, at such time as such Person ceases to be a controlled Affiliate of the Parent; (B) as to any transferee of the Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates that purchases a business or division of the Parent or any of its controlled Affiliates, upon the closing of such purchase; and (C) in the event of a change in control of the Parent that would be required to be reported under Item 5.01 of Form 8-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The parties agree, because damages would be an inadequate remedy, that a party seeking to enforce this Section 7.1 may be entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for any breach thereof, in addition to other remedies available at law or in equity.

Section 7.2 Nonsolicitation of Hired Employees. For the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, neither the Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall solicit the employment of or employ any Hired Employee or any employee of Q-Tech as of the Closing Date, or engage any Hired Employee or any employee of Q-Tech as of the Closing Date as an independent contractor; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent the Parent or any of its Affiliates from interviewing or hiring a Hired Employee or an employee of Q-Tech (i) who has responded to a job posting or advertisement in a publication of general circulation or a job-posting website, so long as such posting or advertisement is not specifically directed at or provided to the Hired Employees, (ii) whose employment with the Buyer is terminated for any reason (other than for cause) or (iii) with the Buyer’s prior written consent.

Section 7.3 Modification of Covenants. If a final judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any term or provision contained in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 is invalid or unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court or tribunal will have the power (i) to reduce the scope, duration or geographic areas of the term or provision, (ii) to delete specific words or phrases and/or (iii) to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. The Seller and the Parent acknowledge that Sections 7.1 and 7.2 are reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the Buyer and its

Affiliates’ legitimate business interests and the value of the U.S. Assets and Q-Tech and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on the Seller and the Parent and/or their Affiliates.

Section 7.4 China Approval. If the China Approval is not obtained prior to the Closing, the Closing shall nonetheless take place and, thereafter, the Parent and the Buyer shall cooperate in any lawful and reasonable arrangement reasonably proposed by the Buyer (not including the payment of any consideration) under which the Buyer shall obtain the economic claims, rights and benefits under, and shall bear all the costs, liabilities and burdens with respect to, the operation of Q-Tech (the equity ownership of which shall not be transferred to the Chinese Buyer until the China Closing Date and shall be held separate by the Parent until the China Approval is received at which time it shall be transferred to the Chinese Buyer); provided that the Buyer shall pay or satisfy all the costs, expenses, obligations and liabilities incurred by Q-Tech in connection with any such alternative arrangements (other than legal fees incurred by the Parent and Q-Tech in connection with documenting and negotiating such arrangement, which shall be borne by the Parent). Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous sentence, no cash or other consideration will be transferred between Q-Tech and the Parent, on one hand, and the Buyer and the Chinese Buyer, on the other hand, as contemplated in the previous sentence until the China Closing Date. During the period between Closing and the China Closing Date, the parties further agree to operate Q-Tech in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 7.4 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. In the event the failure to obtain the China Approval is the result of a failure by a party hereto to perform any covenants or agreements in this Agreement in connection with obtaining the China Approval, the non-defaulting party shall retain all its indemnity and other rights set out in this Agreement with respect to such failure to perform its agreements hereunder. If at any time, the Buyer, in its reasonable discretion determines that the China Approval is not obtainable with commercially reasonable efforts, and that the business of Q-Tech can be effectively transferred to the Buyer through the transfer of assets and the assumption of liabilities of Q-Tech, the Parent shall, upon the request of the Buyer, cooperate with all of the Buyer’s reasonable directives in that regard so as to effectively convey, directly or beneficially, the business of Q-Tech to the Chinese Buyer.

Section 7.5 Further Assurances. From and after the Closing, upon reasonable request of the Buyer or the Chinese Buyer, and at the Buyer’s or Chinese Buyer’s expense, the Seller and the Parent shall do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further acts, assurances, deeds, assignments, transfers, conveyances, and other instruments and papers as may be reasonably required to assign, transfer, convey and deliver to and vest in the Buyer ownership of the U.S. Assets, the China Equity Capital and the assets of Q-Tech consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 7.6 Payment by Chinese Buyer. The Chinese Buyer will exercise its best endeavors to obtain the approvals required in order to pay the China Base Purchase Price Amount and China Cash Payment to the Parent as soon as allowed by Law after the China Closing Date.

FURTHER COVENANTS OF THE PARTIES

Section 9.1 Nonassignable Contracts and Permits.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as an attempt to assign to the Buyer any Contract, Environmental Permit or Permit which is by Law or its terms nonassignable or the assignment of which would constitute a violation of Law or Contract.

(b) If, as of the Closing, an attempted assignment of any Contract related to the Business Unit would be ineffective or would affect either the Seller’s rights thereunder so that the Buyer would not in fact receive all such rights, the Seller shall cooperate with the Buyer in a mutually acceptable arrangement, at the Seller’s cost, to provide for the Buyer the benefit (including the economic benefit) of such Contract (other than legal title). If and so long after the Closing as such assignment shall not have been made, the Seller shall (i) to the extent that such action shall not result in violation of such Contract, transfer to the Buyer all assets and rights, including all monies, received in respect of such Contract, to the extent the same would otherwise have been U.S. Assets, and hold such Contract in trust for the Buyer, and (ii) to the extent that the provisions of clause (i) above are not sufficient to transfer all of the benefits (including the economic benefit) of such Contract (other than legal title), or any such Contract has been cancelled as a result of the attempted assignment, take such actions (which, without limitation, may include entering into subcontracting arrangements with the Buyer) as are commercially reasonable to provide all of the benefits (or the equivalent thereof, including the economic benefit) of such Contract (other than legal title), to the extent the same would

otherwise have been U.S. Assets to the Buyer. With respect to any transfer, subcontract or assignment of the Contracts made to the Buyer by the Seller hereunder, the Buyer hereby agrees to assume, perform, discharge when due, and indemnify the Seller from and against all obligations and liabilities of the Seller with respect to the applicable underlying Contract. Nothing in this Section 9.1 shall be deemed to limit the Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities with respect to any Contract.

(c) The Buyer shall obtain, at its own expense, on or prior to the Closing (or as soon thereafter as practicable), all non-assignable material Permits and all non-assignable material Environmental Permits required by any Governmental Authority with respect to the U.S. Assets, Q-Tech or the Business Unit, in each case, without any guaranty or liability of the Seller with respect thereto, whether material or immaterial. Subsequent to the Closing, the Seller shall have the right to cancel any such non-assignable Permits and Environmental Permits and bonds or guarantees related thereto which are applicable to the U.S. Assets, Q-Tech or the Business Unit but are unable to be assigned within 180 days following the Closing.

Section 9.2 Conduct of Litigation..

(a) The Buyer shall cooperate fully with the Seller in the prosecution or defense of any Action involving the Business Unit arising out of or relating to the Retained Liabilities or Excluded Assets, and shall consult and confer with the Seller with respect thereto, at no cost to the Seller, other than reimbursement of the Buyer’s out-of-pocket expenses; provided, however, that this Section 9.2 will not limit in any way the Buyer’s rights of indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE XIII.

(b) The Seller shall cooperate fully with the Buyer in the prosecution or defense of any Action involving the Business Unit arising out of or relating to the Assumed Liabilities, China Equity Capital or U.S. Assets, and shall consult and confer with the Buyer with respect thereto, at no cost to the Buyer, other than reimbursement of the Seller’s out-of-pocket expenses; provided, however, that this Section 9.2 will not limit in any way the Seller’s rights of indemnification pursuant to ARTICLE XIII.

(c) Each party shall make available to the other parties upon written request (i) personnel to assist the other parties in locating and obtaining any Books and Records in such party’s possession, and (ii) any of such party’s personnel whose assistance or participation is reasonably required in anticipation of or preparation for, or for depositions or testimony in, existing or future Actions or other matters in which a party or any of its Affiliates are involved. The party whose personnel is used pursuant to this Section 9.2(c) will be reimbursed by the party using such personnel for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in performing the covenants contained in this Section 9.2(c).

(d) The provisions of this Section 9.2 shall not apply to disputes between parties hereto or their Affiliates.

Section 9.3 Sales, Use and Transfer Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Seller, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other hand, shall each be responsible and liable for fifty percent (50%) of all use, sales and transfer Taxes and all

stamp duties, if any, that may be due as a result of or arise from the sale and transfer of the U.S. Assets or the China Equity Capital to the Buyer. The Seller, the Parent and the Buyer will cooperate with each other to minimize the aggregate amount of such Taxes and other amounts that are payable in connection with the sale and transfer of the U.S. Assets or the China Equity Capital to the Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyer shall withhold from the China Base Purchase Price Amount such amounts as may be required to be held by applicable Law.

Section 9.4 Accounting Assistance.

(a) Following the Closing, the Buyer shall assist the Seller in the completion of the accounting of the Business Unit for the fiscal year or part thereof (or both) preceding the Closing and in connection therewith shall use its reasonable efforts to assist the Seller in the completion of the accounting for all applicable transactions including providing all information reasonably requested by the Seller and making available such accounting personnel and other employees of the Business Unit as the Seller shall reasonably request to answer questions and provide other assistance.

(b) Each party recognizes that the other party may need financial or other data with respect to the Business Unit covering several fiscal periods prior to or after the Closing Date in order to comply with the securities Laws. The parties shall render reasonable cooperation to each other and their auditors to provide such information. The party requesting assistance shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such assisting party and such assistance shall be subject to compliance by the requesting party with the assisting party’s usual requirements regarding security and confidential treatment of information. No party shall be liable to any other party for any such information or data given, or for the accuracy or completeness thereof.

Section 9.5 Environmental Remediation . Following the Closing, the Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, be responsible to remedy the Interim Period Environmental Issues to bring the Interim Period Environmental Issues into compliance with applicable Environmental Law (the “Response Actions”); provided, however, that the Seller shall have no obligation to undertake any Response Action in excess of the least stringent response required by applicable Environmental Law with respect to the relevant real property, which least stringent response shall be determined as if there were no change in the use of such real property from that use by the Business Unit as of the Closing Date, in the case of United States real property, and as of the China Closing Date in the case of China real property, and such least stringent response may include the imposition of institutional or engineering controls provided that such controls do not result in any material interference with the Business Unit as operated as of the Closing Date for United States real property, and as of the China Closing Date, for China real property. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.5 to the contrary, if the Seller has exercised its right to cap the aggregate expense of all Response Actions pursuant to Section 14.1(g), then the Seller shall be responsible for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Response Actions to the extent, but not in excess of, USD 5,000,0000 (the “Response Action Cap”). If the Buyer changes, develops or modifies any Business Unit assets or operations in a way that materially increases the costs of a Response Action, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for all such increased costs (including costs associated with negotiating with Governmental Authorities to

address such change, development or modification). The Seller shall commence each Response Action prior to the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement and, thereafter, diligently proceed to complete such Response Action; provided, however, the Seller shall complete such Response Action within the time prescribed by applicable Law; provided, further, however, that if the Seller has exercised its rights under Section 14.1(g) and has expended an aggregate of USD 5,000,000 towards completion of all Response Actions it shall have no further obligation to complete or expend further funds on Response Actions.

conditions of any of such Employees or their dependents, which pre-existing conditions were covered under the corresponding Seller Benefit Plan immediately before the Closing. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, the Seller shall provide to the Buyer the applicable deductible and co-insurance amounts paid by each Employee under the corresponding Seller Benefit Plans. The Buyer shall be responsible for providing any U.S. Employee whose “qualifying event,” within the meaning of Code Section 4980B9(f), occurs after the Closing Date (and such U.S. Employees’ “qualified beneficiaries” within the meaning of Code Section 4908B(g)) with the continuation of group health coverage required by Code Section 4980B(f) to the extent required by Law.

None of the limitations set forth in this Section 13.2(d) shall apply to any indemnification claims under Section 13.2(c)(ii), or Section 13.2(c)(iii).

(c) The Buyer shall indemnify the Seller Parties and hold them harmless from and against all Damages that are incurred or suffered by them (i) by reason of, relating to or resulting from (A) the breach by the Buyer of any of the representations or warranties made by the Buyer herein or (B) in the event of the Closing, any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by the Buyer herein as though made on the Closing Date (unless such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case it will be deemed made on such date), (ii) by reason of, or resulting from the failure by the Buyer to perform or comply with any of its covenants or agreements herein, or (iii) by reason of, or resulting from the failure to pay, discharge or satisfy the Assumed Liabilities. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of the Closing, each representation and warranty made by the Buyer in this Agreement shall be deemed made on the Closing Date, unless such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case it will be deemed to be made on such date.

(d) Any recovery by the Seller Parties for indemnification pursuant to Section 13.2(c) shall be limited as follows: (i) the Seller Parties shall not be entitled to any recovery unless a claim for indemnification is made in accordance with Section 13.3, so as to constitute a Valid Claim Notice; (ii) the Seller Parties shall not be entitled to recover any amount for indemnification claims under Section 13.2(c)(i), except to the extent that the amount of Damages for all such breaches exceeds the Deductible, in which event (subject to clause (iii) below) the entire amount that the Seller Parties are entitled to recover in respect of such Damages in excess of the Deductible shall be payable; and (iii) the maximum amount recoverable by the Seller Parties for indemnification claims under Section 13.2(c)(i) shall in the aggregate be equal to an amount equal to the Cap; provided that neither the Deductible nor the Cap shall apply to any breach of any representations or warranties set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization; Good Standing), Section 5.2 (Approval) and Section 5.8 (Fees), as to which the Buyer will be liable in full from the first dollar. No Damages shall be included in determining whether the Deductible has been reached unless a Valid Claim Notice seeking indemnification for such Damages has been given by the Seller to the Buyer in accordance with Section 13.3(b). None of the limitations set forth in this Section 13.2(d) shall apply to any indemnification claims under Section 13.2(c)(ii), or Section 13.2(c)(iii).

Section 13.3 Procedures for Claims.

(a) (i) In order for an indemnified party to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this ARTICLE XIII in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any third party, including a Governmental Authority, against the indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), the indemnified party must notify the indemnifying party in writing of the Third Party Claim (a “Third Party Claim Notice”) promptly following receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Third Party Claim, which notification, to be a valid Third Party Claim Notice, with the effect set forth in Section 13.1 and Section 13.2 (a “Valid Third Party Claim Notice”), must be accompanied by a copy of the notice of the third party claimant to the indemnified party asserting the Third Party Claim; provided, that the failure to provide such notice promptly (so long as a Valid Third Party Claim Notice is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 13.1) shall not affect the obligations of the indemnifying party hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced thereby. The indemnified party shall deliver to the indemnifying party copies of all other notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the Third Party Claim.

(ii) The indemnifying party shall have the right to defend against any such Third Party Claim (including to conduct any proceedings or settlement negotiations) with counsel of its own choosing if (A) the indemnifying party provides written notice to the indemnified party that the indemnifying party intends to undertake such defense, (B) the indemnifying party conducts the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and (C) if the indemnifying party is a party to the Third Party Claim, the indemnified party has not determined, reasonably and in good faith, after consultation with legal counsel, that joint representation would be inappropriate because of a conflict of interest. The indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim and to employ its own counsel (it being understood that, if all of the conditions set forth in clauses (A) to (C) above remain satisfied, the indemnifying party shall control such defense), at the indemnified party’s own expense. Prior to the time the indemnified party is notified by the indemnifying party as to whether the indemnifying party will assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall take all actions reasonably necessary to timely preserve the collective rights of the parties with respect to such Third Party Claim, including responding timely to legal process. If the indemnifying party shall decline to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim (or shall fail to notify the indemnified party of its election to defend such Third Party Claim) within 30 days after the giving by the indemnified party to the indemnifying party of a Valid Third Party Claim Notice with respect to the Third Party Claim or if any of the conditions set forth in clauses (A) to (C) above are no longer satisfied, the indemnified party shall defend against the Third Party Claim and the indemnifying party shall be liable to the indemnified party for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the indemnified party in the defense of the Third Party Claim, including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party, if and to the extent that the indemnifying party is responsible to indemnify for such Third Party Claim. Regardless of which party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the parties agree to cooperate with one another in connection therewith. Such cooperation shall include providing records and information that are relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees and officers available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder and to act as a witness or respond to legal process. Whether or not the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, no compromise or settlement of such claim may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or any violation of the rights of any Person and no material adverse effect on the indemnified party with respect to any other claims that may be made against it, (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages, is fully paid by the indemnifying party, and (C) the indemnified party is fully released. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13.3(a)(ii) to the contrary, if such third party claim would give rise to Damages and less than 50% of such Damages are indemnifiable by the indemnifying party pursuant to this ARTICLE XIII because of the Deductible or the Cap, the indemnified party may elect to retain control of such defense, and the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the cost and expense of the indemnified party to the extent required pursuant to this ARTICLE XIII.

(b) In order for an indemnified party to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this ARTICLE XIII in respect of a claim that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against such indemnified party (an “Other Claim”), the indemnified party must promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of such Other Claim (the “Other Claim Notice”), which notification, to be a valid Other Claim Notice, with the effect set forth in Section 13.1 and Section 13.2 (a “Valid Other Claim Notice”), must certify that the indemnified party has in good faith already sustained some (though not necessarily all) or will sustain Damages with respect to such claim. The failure by any indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party promptly (so long as a Valid Other Claim Notice is given before the expiration of the applicable period set forth in Section 13.1) shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to such indemnified party under Section 13.2, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been prejudiced by such failure.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in respect of any Asbestos Claim, the procedures set forth in Section 13.3 of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall apply.

Section 13.4 Environmental Indemnification.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE XIII, the Buyer agrees that the Buyer’s right to indemnification pursuant to Section 13.2(a) as a result of breaches of representations and warranties contained in Section 4.20 (Environmental Matters) or with respect to Retained Liabilities (but only with respect to subsections (vi) and (vii) of the definition thereof) (collectively, “Environmental Breach”), shall be the sole and exclusive remedies (including any contribution Action) of the Buyer with respect to any Environmental Matters whatsoever. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this ARTICLE XIII, the Seller agrees that the Seller’s right to indemnification pursuant to Section 13.2(a) with respect to Assumed Liabilities (but only with respect to subsections (x) of the definition thereof), shall be the sole and exclusive remedies (including any contribution Action) of the Seller with respect to any Environmental Matters whatsoever.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, in respect of any Environmental Breach for which a Valid Claim Notice has been submitted by an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to undertake and control all Remedial Action with respect thereto, and the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate fully in all substantive deliberations regarding the Environmental Breach and any Remedial Action with respect thereto. The Seller shall only be responsible for Remedial Actions that are required to be undertaken by an Environmental Law and only for such Remedial Action as represents the least stringent response required by an Environmental Law based on the use of the property as of the Closing Date and may include the imposition of institutional or engineering controls provided that such controls do not result in any material interference with the operation of the Business Unit as of the Closing Date. As used in this Agreement, “Remedial Action” means the defense of any Action, the investigation, removal or remediation of Hazardous Materials, and the obtaining of any Environmental Permits, all to the extent arising under, and required by, any Environmental Law.

Section 13.5 Other Provisions.

(a) Except for (i) claims of fraud or (ii) as otherwise expressly provided in the Ancillary Documents (and then only with respect to breaches of that Ancillary Document and not this Agreement), the indemnification provided in this ARTICLE XIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Parent, the Seller or the Buyer in this Agreement or otherwise with respect to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 13.5(a) shall not prevent any party from pursuing remedies of specific performance or injunctive relief, declaratory judgment or any other non-monetary equitable remedies available to them under applicable Law. All amounts payable by one party in indemnification of the other shall be considered an adjustment to the Base Purchase Price.

(b) In no event shall the Buyer, the Parent or the Seller be liable for loss of profits, diminution in value, punitive or consequential damages incurred by an indemnified party hereunder, it being understood that the Buyer, the Parent and the Seller shall only be liable for such damages (subject to the limitations on liability set forth in this ARTICLE XIII) to the extent loss of profits, diminution in value, punitive or consequential damages that are incurred or suffered by a third party and payable by the indemnified party with respect to the Third Party Claim of such third party; provided, however that for purposes of this Agreement, in the event of a breach of this Agreement by the Buyer that causes the Closing not to occur, the Seller may recover, to the extent the Seller satisfies its burden of proof of damages under applicable Law, the difference between the Purchase Price and the amount received by the Seller in a subsequent sale of the Business Unit or other appropriate measures of direct damages to compensate the Seller for the loss of the benefit of its bargain.

(c) Upon making any payment to an indemnified party for any indemnification claim under this Agreement, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment (an “Indemnification Payment”), to any rights which the indemnified party or its Affiliate may have against any other parties (excluding the Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ rights under any insurance policies) with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim. The indemnified party and its Affiliates shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in the pursuit of such rights and shall promptly turn over to the indemnifying party any payments (up to the amount of the Indemnification Payment) received in respect of such rights.

(d) The amount of any Damages shall be computed net of any recoverable insurance proceeds from a third party insurance company that is not an Affiliate of the indemnified party or any of its Affiliates and any Tax benefits to be actually received by the indemnified party in connection therewith.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Buyer shall have no right to any indemnification under this ARTICLE XIII for any matter if the Total Net Asset Amount calculated with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet was reduced for such matter (to the extent of such reduction).

(f) All breaches of representations or warranties shall, for purposes of calculating Damages under Section 13.2(a) and Section 13.2(c), be determined without giving effect to any qualification in the representations and warranties of the Seller, the Buyer or the Chinese Buyer as to materiality, in all material respects, Material Adverse Effect, Buyer Material Adverse Effect or words of similar effect. For the avoidance of doubt, such qualifications shall be given effect for the purposes of determining whether a breach of a representation or warranty has occurred.

(g) The parties agree that the following matters shall be deemed, without any further action by the parties, disclosed by the Seller as exceptions to each representation in ARTICLE IV (whether or not there currently is a Seller Disclosure Schedule with respect to such a representation) for all purposes, including indemnification:

(i) Matters arising between the date hereof and the Closing Date and, with respect to Q-Tech between the date hereof and the China Closing Date, that result from or relate to the matters set forth in subsections (a) through (g) of the definition of “Material Adverse; and

(ii) Any action taken or not taken by the Seller at the Buyer’s request or with the Buyer’s consent, in which case the action (and such action only) shall be deemed disclosed, but the consequences of such action shall be deemed disclosed only to the extent disclosed to the Buyer prior to undertaking such action;

(iii) Consequences of the Seller’s or Q-Tech’s inability to enter into a transaction as a result of the Buyer’s withholding of a consent requested of the Buyer pursuant to Section 6.2.

(h) In the event of Closing, then as of the China Closing Date, Q-Tech hereby releases the Seller and its Affiliates from any and all claims, debts, liabilities, and causes of action, of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown and the Seller and its Affiliates releases Q-Tech from any and all claims, debts, liabilities, and causes of action, of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, in each case, except for Intercompany Trade Accounts Payable and Intercompany Trade Accounts Receivable.

ARTICLE XIV

TERMINATION

Section 14.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Seller, the Parent and the Buyer;

(b) by any of the Seller, the Buyer or the Parent: (i) if any Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action in each case permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (excluding with respect to the purchase and sale of the China Equity Capital) and such order,

decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and non-appealable (any such order, decree, ruling or other action, a “Final Order”); provided that the party seeking to terminate this Agreement shall have used all reasonable best efforts to challenge such order, decree, ruling or other action; or (ii) if the Effective Time shall not have occurred on or before June 18, 2010 (the “Outside Date”), provided, that, a party may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 14.1(b)(ii) if its failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement results in the failure of the Effective Time to occur by such time, provided, however, that the Outside Date shall be extended day-by-day for each day during which any party shall be subject to a nonfinal order, decree, ruling or action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (excluding with respect to the purchase and sale of the China Equity Capital), provided further, however, that the Outside Date shall not be extended past August 18, 2010;

(c) by the Seller, if the Buyer breaches any provision of this Agreement, including a failure to perform a covenant or a misrepresentation (disregarding all materiality and Buyer Material Adverse Effect qualifications), and such breach or misrepresentation both (i) remains uncured for a period of 30 days after the Buyer receives written notice of such breach, and (ii) would, or would likely constitute a Buyer Material Adverse Effect;

(d) by the Buyer, if the Seller breaches any provision of this Agreement, including a failure to perform a covenant or a misrepresentation (disregarding all materiality and Material Adverse Effect qualifications), and such breach or misrepresentation both (i) remains uncured for a period of 30 days after the Seller receives written notice of such breach, and (ii) would, or would likely constitute a Material Adverse Effect;

(e) by the Buyer at any time a Material Adverse Effect exists;

(f) by the Seller at any time a Buyer Material Adverse Effect exists; or

(g) by the Buyer, if the Seller exercises its right to cap the Seller’s obligation for the costs and expenses of the Response Action as provided in this Section 14.1(g). The Seller shall have the right to limit its obligation to pay all costs and expenses associated with the Response Actions to an aggregate amount of USD 5,000,000, by providing the Buyer with a written notice to that effect at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that the Seller shall be afforded ten (10) Business Days from the delivery of the Final Environmental Studies to the Seller prior to the exercise of its right under this Section 14.1(g); provided further, (i) if the Seller is unable to, or otherwise does not, give at least five (5) Business Days notice as provided in this Section, the Closing Date, at the election of the Buyer, shall be postponed so as to permit no less than five (5) Business Days between the date of such notice and the Closing Date, and (ii) the Closing Date shall be postponed, as necessary, to provide the Seller such ten (10) Business Day period after delivery of the Final Environmental Studies.

Section 14.2 Procedure and Effect of Termination. In the event of a termination of this Agreement by any party pursuant to Section 14.1:

(a) The terminating party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other parties, and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned, without further action by any of the parties hereto;

(b) All further obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate, except that the obligations in Sections 6.5 (Confidentiality; No Hire), 15.3 (Public Announcements), 15.8 (Governing Law) and 15.12 (Expenses) hereof shall survive;

(c) All filings, applications and other submissions relating to the transactions contemplated herein shall, to the extent practicable, be withdrawn from the agency or other Person to which made; and

(d) In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 14.1, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party or parties specifying the provision hereof pursuant to which such termination is made, and this Agreement (except as set forth in Section 14.2(b)) shall forthwith become null and void, and there shall be no liability on the part of the Seller, the Buyer and the Parent; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 14.2 shall relieve any party from liability for any breach (occurring prior to any such termination) of any of the covenants, representations or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

(e) To the extent that the Seller notifies the Buyer in writing no less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date of the existence of a Material Adverse Effect (describing the Material Adverse Effect in reasonable detail) and the Seller qualifies its representations and warranties therein by stating that such Material Adverse Effect has occurred (which would cause one of the Buyer’s conditions to close the transactions contemplated hereby not to be fulfilled and would give the Buyer the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 14.1(c)) and the Buyer nonetheless closes the transactions contemplated hereby, then, the Buyer may not seek indemnification hereunder with respect to such Material Adverse Effect; provided, however, that if the Seller is unable to, or otherwise does not, give at least five (5) Business Days notice as provided in this Section the Closing Date, at the election of the Buyer, shall be postponed so as to permit no less than five (5) Business Days between the date of such notice and the Closing Date.

(f) None of the parties hereto may rely on the failure of any condition to its obligation to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby set forth in Section 12.1, 12.2 or 12.3, as the case may be, to be satisfied if such failure was caused by such party’s failure to use its efforts required of such party herein to consummate the transactions hereby.

ARTICLE XV

Section 15.2 Waivers. The Buyer, the Parent and the Seller may only extend the time for, or waive the performance of, any of the obligations of the other or waive compliance by the other with any of the covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement in writing signed by an officer of such party.

Section 15.3 Public Announcements; Confidentiality.

(a) None of the parties shall make, issue or release any oral or written public announcement or statement concerning, or acknowledge the existence of, or reveal the terms, conditions and status of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, without the other parties’ prior written approval of, and concurrence in, the contents of such announcement, acknowledgment or statement, except as such announcement, statement or acknowledgement may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any United States or foreign securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the announcement, statement or acknowledgement shall give the other party notice in advance of such issuance.

(b) On and after the Closing, the Parent and the Seller will, and will cause each of their Affiliates (other than Q-Tech) to hold in confidence (to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law) all confidential information concerning the Buyer and its Affiliates (regarding information received in connection with the transactions contemplated by, or otherwise pursuant to, this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents), Q-Tech, the U.S. Assets or the Business Unit (other than information related solely to the Retained Liabilities and the Excluded Assets), except to the extent that such information (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Seller or its Affiliates in breach hereof, or (ii) becomes available to the Seller or its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Buyer that is not known by the Seller or its Affiliate to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other obligation of secrecy to the Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, in the event the Seller or its Affiliates receives a request to disclose all or any part of such information under the terms of a valid and effective subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental body, the Seller agrees to (i) promptly notify the Buyer of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such a request, so that the Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order (at the Buyer’s cost) and/or consent to a waiver of the Seller or its Affiliates’ compliance with the provisions of this agreement, and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, to exercise reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such of the disclosed information which the Buyer so designates, at the Buyer’s cost.

This Agreement, the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the Buyer Disclosure Schedule, the Exhibits, the Ancillary Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement hereto embody the entire agreement between and among the parties and any and all prior oral or written agreements, representations

or warranties, contracts, understandings, correspondence, conversations, and memoranda, whether written or oral, between or among the Buyer and the Seller or between or among any agents, representatives, parents, subsidiaries, Affiliates, predecessors in interest or successors in interest, with respect to the subject matter hereof, are merged herein and replaced hereby. The letter of intent between the Parent and the Buyer dated November 18, 2009, is hereby terminated and all rights and obligations thereunder are hereby released.

Section 15.6 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against its regulatory policy, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby, taken as a whole, are not affected in a manner materially adverse to any party hereto.

Section 15.7 Assignability. Neither this Agreement nor any of the parties’ rights hereunder shall be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, (a) the Buyer may assign its rights in this Agreement as collateral security to its respective lender, (b) the Buyer may assign its rights in this Agreement on or after the Closing, to any purchaser of substantially all of the assets of the Business Unit or equity interests (whether by operation of Law or in connection with a merger or consolidation or otherwise) of the Buyer or the Business Unit, and (c) any party may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate of such party, provided that such assignment shall not operate to release the assigning Person from its obligations hereunder. In the event that any assignment is made, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be deemed to confer upon any other Person, including without limitation employees of the Business Unit, any rights or remedies under, or by reason of, this Agreement.

Section 15.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws. Service of process upon any party shall be deemed, in every respect, effective upon such party if made by prepaid registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or if personally delivered against receipt to the address set forth in Section 15.4 or to such other address as a party may designate in writing to the others. Any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in any court of the State of Delaware, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such proceeding, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the proceeding shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court.

Section 15.9 Headings; Definitions. The Section and other headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Wherever in this Agreement words indicating the plural

number appear, such words shall be considered as words indicating the singular number and vice versa where the context indicates the propriety of such use.

Section 15.10 Construction. References to “applicable” Law or Laws with respect to a particular Person, thing or matter will include only such Law or Laws as to which the Governmental Authority that enacted or promulgated such Law or Laws has jurisdiction over such Person, thing or matter as determined under the Laws of the United States or the foreign Governmental Authority, as applicable. Reference to any United States legal term for any action, remedy, method of judicial proceeding, legal document, legal status, court, official or any legal concept or thing shall in respect of any jurisdiction other than the United States be deemed to include what most nearly approximates in that jurisdiction to the United States legal term and any United States statutory provision will be construed so as to include equivalent or analogous laws of any other relevant jurisdiction. Unless the context requires otherwise, the words “include,” “including” and variations thereof mean “including, without limitation,” and the words “hereof,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole and not any particular Section or Article in which such words appear. The parties acknowledge that they and their attorneys have reviewed this Agreement and have had the opportunity to negotiate fully all of its provisions, and that any rule of construction to the effect that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party, or any similar rule operating against the drafter of an agreement, shall not be applicable to the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 15.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 15.12 Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each of the parties shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, provided that, for purposes of clarification, the Buyer shall pay filing fees associated with filings related to the transactions contemplated hereby under the HSR Act. A party in breach of this Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party from and against all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including legal fees, incurred by such other party by reason of the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement. The payment of such expenses is in addition to any other relief to which such other party may be entitled.

Section 15.13 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to this Agreement.

Section 15.14 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 15.15 Currency. Unless otherwise expressly indicated, all references to dollar amounts (including USD) in this Agreement are expressed in U.S. dollars.

Section 15.16 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 and that any breach of this Agreement could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement.
