Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On January 7, 2021, TechnipFMC plc (the “Company”) entered into the following agreements related to its planned separation into two industry-leading, independent, publicly traded companies (the “Spin-off”):

•	a Separation and Distribution Agreement (the “SDA”) with Technip Energies B.V. (“Technip Energies”);

•	a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Bpifrance Participations SA (“BPI”);

•	a Relationship Agreement with Technip Energies and BPI (the “Relationship Agreement”); and

•

a Commitment Letter (the “Commitment Letter”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., DNB Capital, LLC, Société Générale, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Bank of America, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., Standard Chartered Bank and The Northern Trust Company, and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Commitment Parties”).

The descriptions below of the SDA, Share Purchase Agreement, Relationship Agreement, and Commitment Letter, and the transactions contemplated thereby, do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by reference to, the complete terms and conditions of the SDA, Share Purchase Agreement, Relationship Agreement, and Commitment Letter, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which are incorporated herein by reference.

Separation and Distribution Agreement

The SDA sets forth Technip Energies’ agreements with the Company regarding the principal actions to be taken in connection with the Spin-off.

Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities. The SDA identifies the assets to be transferred, liabilities to be retained or assumed (as applicable) and contracts to be assigned to each of the Company and Technip Energies, the purpose of which is to ensure that, as at the time of the distribution of Technip Energies shares held by the Company to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Spin-off (the “Distribution”), Technip Energies and Technip Energies’ subsidiaries own all of the assets required to operate the Technip Energies business and retain or assume (as applicable) all of the liabilities that relate to its business (whether arising prior to, at or after the date of execution of the SDA), unless otherwise agreed.

The SDA provides for when and how such transfers, assumptions and assignments will occur (to the extent that such transfers, assumptions and assignments have not already occurred prior to the parties’ entry into the SDA). The SDA further sets forth the basis on which specified assets or liabilities (or any part thereof), the transfer of which is subject to a third party consent which has not been obtained by the date on which implementation of the separation occurs in the relevant jurisdiction, will continue to be held by the relevant transferor for the account, risk and economic benefit of, and at the cost of, the relevant transferee.

Conditions to Closing. The SDA also provides that several conditions must be satisfied, or waived by the Company, before the Spin-off can occur, including:

•	the SDA and the transactions contemplated by the SDA shall have been approved by each of the board of directors of the Company (the “TechnipFMC Board”) and Technip Energies (the “Technip Energies Board”), and such approvals shall not have been withdrawn;

•	the European prospectus (the “EU Prospectus”) filed in the Netherlands with the Stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten (the “AFM”) registering the Technip Energies shares shall have been approved by the AFM, with no stop order in effect with respect thereto;

•	the actions and filings necessary or appropriate under applicable securities laws in connection with the Distribution shall have been taken or made, and, where applicable, have become effective or been accepted by the applicable governmental authority;

•

the registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Form F-1”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the Technip Energies shares shall be effective under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with no stop order in effect with respect thereto and no proceedings for that purpose being pending before or threatened by the Securities and Exchange Commission;

•	the Technip Energies shares to be distributed to the Company’s shareholders in the Distribution shall have been accepted for listing on the Euronext Paris (Compartment A) stock exchange (“Euronext Paris”), subject to official notice of distribution;

•

the Spin-off shall have been completed and (i) the Company, as of the effective time of the Spin-off, shall have no further liability whatsoever under the financing arrangements of Technip Energies (including in connection with any guarantees provided by the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and (ii) Technip Energies, as of the effective time of the Spin-off, shall have no liability whatsoever under the financing arrangements of the Company;

•	the Distribution shall have been validly completed by Technip Energies to the Company;

•

the Company will have requested the resignation of each person who is an officer or director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries prior to the date of the Distribution (the “Distribution Date”) and who will continue solely as an officer or director of Technip Energies or any of its subsidiaries following the Distribution Date;

•	the Company will have entered into a Distribution Agent Agreement with, or provided instructions regarding the Distribution to, the distribution agent;

•	the transactions contemplated by the financing arrangements of each of the Company and Technip Energies shall have been consummated prior to or on the Distribution Date;

•	each of the ancillary agreements contemplated by the SDA shall have been duly executed and delivered by the parties thereto;

•	all material governmental approvals necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the SDA shall have been obtained and be in full force and effect;

•

no order, injunction or decree issued by any court or agency of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the SDA shall be in effect, and no other event outside the control of the Company shall have occurred or failed to occur that prevents the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the SDA; and

•

no events or developments shall have occurred or exist that, in the judgment of the TechnipFMC Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, make it inadvisable to effect the transactions contemplated by the SDA, or would result in the transactions contemplated by the SDA not being in the best interest of the Company or its shareholders.

The Distribution. The SDA governs the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the Spin-off and certain actions that must occur prior to the Distribution. The Company has sole and absolute discretion to determine whether, when and on what basis to proceed with all or part of the Distribution.

Intercompany Arrangements. All agreements, arrangements, commitments and understandings, including most intercompany accounts payable or accounts receivable, between Technip Energies, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, will terminate effective as of the completion of the Spin-off, except specified agreements and arrangements that are intended to survive completion of the Spin-off that are either transactional in nature or at arms’ length terms.

Representations and Warranties. Technip Energies and the Company each provide customary representations and warranties as to each other’s respective capacity to enter into the SDA. Except as expressly set forth in the SDA or any ancillary agreement, neither Technip Energies nor the Company make any representation or warranty as to the assets, business or liabilities transferred or assumed as part of the separation, or as to the legal sufficiency of any assignment, document or instrument delivered to convey title to any asset or thing of value to be transferred in connection with the Spin-off. Except as expressly set forth in the SDA and certain other ancillary agreements, all assets will be transferred on an “as is,” “where is” basis.

Indemnification. Technip Energies and the Company each have agreed to indemnify the other and each of the other’s directors, officers, agents and employees against certain liabilities, in each case for uncapped amounts, incurred in connection with the Spin-off and Technip Energies’ and the Company’s respective businesses, including: (i) liabilities of Technip Energies or the Company, as applicable, resulting, directly or indirectly, from liabilities of the other party; (ii) any breach by Technip Energies or the Company, as applicable, of the SDA or the other agreements entered into between Technip Energies and the Company for purposes of effecting the Spin-off and providing a framework for Technip Energies’ relationship with the Company after the Spin-off; (iii) any third party claim that the use of licensed intellectual property by Technip Energies or the Company, as applicable, infringes upon the intellectual property rights of such third party; (iv) any guarantee, indemnification or contribution obligation, letter of credit reimbursement obligation, surety, bond or other credit support agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding for the benefit of Technip Energies or the Company, as applicable, by the other party, except for any such liability relating to a liability of such beneficiary; (v) untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of material facts or omissions or alleged omissions to state a material fact required to be stated in the EU Prospectus or the Form F-1 necessary to make the statements in the EU Prospectus or the Form F-1 not misleading with respect to information contained therein; and (vi) any breach by Technip Energies or the Company of that certain Deferred Prosecution Agreement entered into as of June 25, 2019, by and between the Company and the U.S. Department of Justice. Additionally, the Company has agreed to indemnify Technip Energies and Technip Energies’ directors, officers, agents and employees against liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from any monetary penalty issued by the Parquet National Financier arising from its ongoing investigation as previously disclosed by the Company.

Release of Claims. Technip Energies and the Company each have agreed to release the other and its affiliates, successors and assigns, and all persons that, prior to completion of the Spin-off, have been the other’s shareholders, directors, officers, agents or employees, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, from any claims against any of them that arise out of or relate to Technip Energies’ and the Company’s respective businesses, provided that such release will not be effective with respect to: (i) any liability provided in or resulting from certain existing agreements between Technip Energies and the Company to the extent such liability is specified as not to terminate as of the effective time of the Spin-off; (ii) any liability provided in or resulting from a contract or understanding entered into after the effective time of the Spin-off between Technip Energies and the Company and Technip Energies’ and the Company’s respective affiliates; (iii) any liability assumed, transferred, assigned or allocated to Technip Energies and Technip Energies’ affiliates or the Company and its affiliates in accordance with the SDA or the other agreements entered into between Technip Energies and the Company for purposes of effecting the Spin-off and providing a framework for Technip Energies relationship with the Company after the Spin-off; or (iv) any liability that Technip Energies or the Company have with respect to indemnification or contribution pursuant to the SDA or otherwise for claims brought against Technip Energies or the Company by third parties that are governed by terms of the SDA.

Termination. Prior to the Distribution, the Company has the unilateral right to terminate or to modify the terms of the SDA. Neither Technip Energies nor the Company may rescind the SDA, except by an agreement in writing signed by Technip Energies and the Company, in any circumstances whatsoever following the completion of the Distribution.

Transfer of Technip Energies shares and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) by the Company. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the Company will not, without the written consent of Technip Energies: (i) for a period of 60 days after the date of the Distribution, transfer, donate, sell, assign, pledge, hypothecate, grant a security interest in or otherwise dispose or attempt to dispose (“Transfer”) all or any portion of its interests or rights in any Technip Energies shares or ADRs; (ii) prior to a change of control of Technip Energies, Transfer any Technip Energies shares or ADRs to certain competitors of Technip Energies; (iii) prior to a change of control of Technip Energies, knowingly Transfer any Technip Energies shares or ADRs through an accelerated book build (an “ABB”), fully marketed offering or off-market sale to a person who would, upon completion of such Transfer, beneficially own 10% or more of the outstanding Technip Energies shares and ADRs or that would otherwise trigger a mandatory public tender offer under applicable Dutch and French laws; or (iv) prior to a change of control of Technip Energies, sell Technip Energies shares or ADRs on Euronext Paris or any other securities exchange on which such Technip Energies shares or ADRs become listed in excess of 25% of the average daily trading volume of the Technip Energies shares and ADRs for the five business days preceding the date of such sale. Until the Company beneficially owns less than 5% of the outstanding Technip Energies shares and ADRs, Technip Energies will, among other things, reasonably cooperate with the Company to (a) optimize (1) any offering of Technip Energies shares or ADRs by the Company that entails Technip Energies’ involvement in the form of a management road show and/or the preparation of a prospectus or similar offering document and (2) any sale of a block of Technip Energies shares and ADRs beneficially owned by the Company and (b) maintain the effectiveness of a universal registration statement and the listing of the Technip Energies shares on Euronext Paris. At least 3 business days prior to the announcement of any ABB relating to the sale of Technip Energies shares or ADRs by the Company, the Company shall deliver written notice to Technip Energies specifying in reasonable detail the number of Technip Energies shares or ADRs the Company intends to offer in such sale and any other material terms and conditions of the proposed ABB. Subject to certain adjustments and applicable law, at any time prior to the announcement of such ABB, Technip Energies may, in its sole discretion, deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice shall be binding upon Technip Energies and the Company, to purchase from the Company up to (i) a fixed euro amount of Technip Energies share or ADRs or (ii) a fixed number of Technip Energies shares or ADRs, in either case at a clearing price in the ABB. At least 15 business days prior to the announcement of a fully marketed offering of Technip Energies shares or ADRs by the Company, the Company shall deliver a written notice to Technip Energies stating the Company’s intention to undertake such fully marketed offering. Within 5 business days of the date on which such notice is delivered, Technip Energies may deliver a written notice to the Company requesting that Technip Energies and the Company engage in discussions regarding a potential purchase by Technip Energies of Technip Energies shares or ADRs from the Company. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company shall engage in good faith discussions regarding a potential purchase of Technip Energies shares or ADRs for a period of five business days.

The Company shall have the right to propose to the Technip Energies Board (i) two nominees, so long as it owns at least 18% of the outstanding number of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, in the aggregate, and (ii) one nominee, so long as it owns at least 5%, but less than 18%, of the outstanding number of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, in the aggregate. The Company will lose the right to designate any directors to the Technip Energies Board if its beneficial ownership of Technip Energies shares and ADRs decreases below 5% of the outstanding number of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, in the aggregate.

Other matters governed by the SDA. Other matters governed by the SDA include, without limitation, insurance arrangements, confidentiality, mutual assistance and information sharing after completion of the Distribution, treatment and replacement of credit support, and transfer of and post-separation access to certain books and records.

Share Purchase Agreement

Purchase Price and BPI Ownership. BPI will purchase from the Company a number of Technip Energies shares (the “Investment”) equal to (a) $200,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) divided by (b) (i) the volume-weighted average price per share of Technip Energies shares on Euronext Paris over the thirty (30) consecutive trading days beginning on the first trading day after the Distribution Date (the “VWAP Period”), as such volume-weighted average price per share is reported by Euronext Paris (or, if Euronext Paris is not available for any reason, Bloomberg) or, if not reported by such source, is calculated on the last trading day of the VWAP Period with daily volume-weighted average price per share and daily volumes reported at the close of each trading day by Euronext Paris (or, if Euronext Paris is not available for any reason, Bloomberg), calculated to four decimal places multiplied by (ii) 0.94. BPI’s ownership (excluding shares BPI will receive in the Distribution for its current holdings) will be collared between 11.82% (the “Floor”) and 17.25% (the “Cap”). If the number of shares owed to BPI exceed the Cap, its ownership will be maintained at the Cap and the Purchase Price will be reduced accordingly. If the number of shares owed to BPI following the VWAP Period is below the Floor, BPI is entitled to terminate the Share Purchase Agreement, and if BPI decides to do so, the Company will refund the Purchase Price.

Conditions to Closing. The Share Purchase Agreement provides that several conditions must be satisfied, or waived by the Company or BPI, as applicable, including:

•	the transactions contemplated by the SDA, including the Distribution, shall have been consummated in all material respects;

•	the agreed competition law approvals shall have been obtained prior to May 31, 2021;

•

each of the following items shall be in a substantially similar form as provided or communicated to BPI: (i) the SDA, (ii) the provisions in the EU Prospectus and Form F-1 describing (A) the assets to be transferred to, and liabilities to be assumed by, Technip Energies in connection with the Spin-off, (B) the Distribution, (C) the Share Purchase Agreement, the Relationship Agreement and the Investment, (D) the post-Distribution Date governance and corporate office and headquarters of Technip Energies, and (E) the financial information related to Technip Energies;

•	the guidance published by Technip Energies, whether in the EU Prospectus or Form F-1 or otherwise, shall be conforming in all but de minimis respects to the guidance provided to BPI;

•	the pro forma gross financial indebtedness of Technip Energies (on a consolidated basis) as of the Distribution Date shall not exceed an aggregate amount of $900.0 million, of which no more than $150.0 million shall be commercial paper; and

•	the corporate office and headquarters of Technip Energies (including the management and main corporate functions) shall be located in France.

Termination. The Share Purchase Agreement may be terminated by written notice of either the Company or BPI if applicable conditions precedent are not satisfied or waived by May 31, 2021. In addition, the Share Purchase Agreement may be terminated by written notice of BPI to the Company if the number of shares owed to BPI following the VWAP Period would fall below the Floor or the Distribution Date has not occurred by March 30, 2021.

Relationship Agreement

Governance Rights. BPI shall have the right to propose to the Technip Energies Board (i) two nominees, so long as it owns at least 18% of the outstanding number of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, in the aggregate, and (ii) one nominee, so long as it owns at least 5%, but less than 18%, of the outstanding number of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, in the aggregate. As from the Distribution Date, BPI is entitled to propose two non-executive members for election at future general meetings occurring prior to the vote on the Company’s annual financial statements of the fiscal year following the year in which the Distribution Date occurs, regardless of the percentage of Technip Energies shares and ADRs it owns, subject to certain exceptions if the Investment is not completed.

Preemptive Rights. As long as BPI owns any Technip Energies shares, if the Technip Energies Board decides to issue additional shares, other than an Excluded Issuance, BPI has a preemptive right to purchase its pro rata shares based on its percentage ownership of Technip Energies shares. An “Excluded Issuance” means an issuance (i) as consideration of an acquisition, merger or similar transaction, (ii) pursuant to an income plan or equity incentive plan or (iii) of debt securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, Technip Energies shares.

Access and Information Rights. As long as BPI owns at least 10% of Technip Energies shares, Technip Energies will provide BPI with certain financial information to facilitate BPI’s financial reporting and oversight of its investment.

Covenants. Pursuant to the Relationship Agreement:

•

Until the earlier of (i) the date on which BPI no longer maintains beneficial ownership of any outstanding Technip Energies shares and (ii) a change of control of Technip Energies, at any Technip Energies general or special meeting at which the election of any director that has been proposed by the Company pursuant to the SDA is submitted to a vote of holders of Technip Energies shares and ADRs, BPI shall vote, or cause to be voted, all Technip Energies shares beneficially owned by BPI in favor of the election of each such director;

•	Until the expiration of three years after the Distribution Date, the Technip Energies Board will (i) not adopt a resolution to relocate the Technip Energies corporate office and headquarters and (ii) recommend that its shareholders vote against any proposal to do so.

Lock-Up. BPI agrees, subject to limited exceptions, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, beneficial ownership of any of its Technip Energies shares purchased in connection with the Investment for a period of 180 days after the Distribution Date without receiving the prior written consent of Technip Energies.

Termination. The Relationship Agreement terminates at the earlier of (i) mutual agreement, (ii) the date on which BPI no longer owns any of our shares or (iii) the termination of the Share Purchase Agreement.

Commitment Letter

In the Commitment Letter, certain of the Commitment Parties have committed to provide up to $1.85 billion in secured debt financing, including a $1.0 billion first lien senior secured revolving credit facility and an $850.0 million second lien senior secured bridge loan facility.

The funding and effectiveness of the debt facilities provided for in the Commitment Letter is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth therein, including consummation of the proposed Spin-off. The proceeds of the debt financing provided for in the Commitment Letter will be used for general corporate purposes (including consummating the transactions contemplated by the SDA and paying transaction costs and expenses in connection therewith), refinancing certain existing debt and working capital.

SEPARATION AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

This SEPARATION AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT is entered into effective as of January 7, 2021 (this “Agreement”), by and between TechnipFMC plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“TFMC”), and Technip Energies B.V., a private limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands and wholly owned subsidiary of TFMC, which prior to the Distribution (as defined below) will be converted to Technip Energies N.V., a public limited liability company incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands (“TEN”). TFMC and TEN are each a “Party” and are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties.”

RECITALS

WHEREAS, TFMC, acting together with its Subsidiaries, currently conducts the TFMC Business (as defined below) and the TEN Business (as defined below);

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of TFMC (the “TFMC Board”) determined on careful review and consideration that the separation of TEN from the rest of TFMC and the establishment of TEN as a separate, publicly traded company to operate the TEN Business is in the best interests of TFMC;

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of TEN (the “TEN Board”) determined on careful review and consideration that the separation of TEN from the rest of TFMC and the establishment of TEN as a separate, publicly traded company to operate the TEN Business is in the best interests of TEN;

WHEREAS, TEN has been incorporated for the sole purpose of, and has not engaged in activities except in preparation for, the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

WHEREAS, TFMC owns 100% of the ordinary shares, nominal value EUR 0.01 per share, of TEN (the “TEN Shares”);

WHEREAS, in furtherance of the foregoing, the TFMC Board has determined that it is appropriate and desirable to separate the TEN Business from the TFMC Business (the “Separation”) and, following the Separation, contribute those subsidiaries of TFMC constituting the TEN Business to TEN (the “Contribution”);

WHEREAS, as consideration for the Separation and the Contribution, the TEN Board has determined it appropriate and desirable that following the Contribution TEN shall issue a number of TEN Shares to TFMC (the “TEN Shares Issuance”) which shares shall be paid up in kind by means of the Contribution;

WHEREAS, each of the TFMC Board and the TEN Board have further determined that, following the Separation, the Contribution and TEN Shares Issuance, it is appropriate and desirable for TFMC to make a distribution of the TEN Shares representing an aggregate 50.1% interest in TEN to the holders of ordinary shares, par value $1.00 per share, of TFMC (the “TFMC Shares”) through a special dividend of TEN Shares to holders of TFMC Shares on the Record Date on a pro rata basis (the “Distribution” and, together with the Separation, the Contribution, the TEN Shares Issuance and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the “Transactions”), in each case, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, immediately following the Distribution, TFMC will hold an amount of TEN Shares representing 49.9% of the outstanding TEN Shares;

WHEREAS, TEN has filed with the Stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten (the “AFM”) and the SEC, respectively, the EU Prospectus and the Form F-1, which set forth certain disclosure concerning TEN and the Transactions;

WHEREAS, TEN has requested that the AFM notify the Autorité des marchés financiers (the “AMF”) of its approval, in accordance with the applicable regulation of the European Parliament, of the EU Prospectus; and

WHEREAS, each of TFMC and TEN has determined that it is appropriate and desirable to set forth in this Agreement certain agreements that will govern certain matters relating to the Transactions and the relationship of TFMC, TEN and the members of the TFMC Group and the TEN Group following the Distribution.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained in this Agreement, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1.2 Nonassignable Contracts and Permits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Asset or Liability if an assignment or attempted assignment of the same without the consent of another Person would constitute a breach thereof or in any way impair the rights of a Party thereunder or give to any third party any rights with respect thereto. If any such consent is not obtained or if an attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair such party’s rights under any such Asset or Liability so that the party entitled to the benefits and responsibilities of such purported transfer (the “Intended Transferee”) would not receive all such rights and responsibilities, then (a) the party purporting to make such transfer (the “Intended Transferor”) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or cause to be provided to the Intended Transferee, to the extent permitted by Law, the benefits of any such Asset or Liability and the Intended Transferor shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to the Intended Transferee when received all moneys received by the Intended Transferor with respect to any such Asset and (b) in consideration thereof the Intended Transferee shall pay, perform and discharge on behalf of the Intended Transferor all of the Intended Transferor’s Liabilities thereunder in a timely manner and in accordance with the terms thereof which it may do without breach and, at the Intended Transferor’s request, the Intended Transferee shall promptly reimburse or prepay (at the Intended Transferor’s election) the Intended Transferor for all amounts paid or due by the Intended Transferor on behalf of the Intended Transferee with respect to such non-assignable Asset or Liability. In addition, the Intended Transferor and the Intended Transferee shall each take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the other Party in order to place the other Party, insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby and so all the benefits and burdens relating thereto, including possession, use, risk of loss, Liability, potential for gain and dominion, control and command, shall inure to the Intended Transferee. If and when such consents and approvals are obtained, the transfer of the applicable Asset shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

1.3 Termination of Intercompany Agreements.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 1.3(b), in furtherance of the releases and other provisions set forth in Article II, TFMC and each member of the TFMC Group, on the one hand, and TEN and each member of the TEN Group, on the other hand, hereby terminate any and all (i) Intercompany balances and accounts whether or not in writing, between or among TFMC or any member of the TFMC Group, on the one hand, and TEN or any other member of the TEN Group, on the other hand, effective as of the Effective Time, such that, to the extent practicable, all such Intercompany balances and accounts shall be fully settled and no Party or any member of its Group shall have any continuing obligation with respect thereto and otherwise in such a manner as the Parties shall determine in good faith (including by means of dividends, distributions, contribution, the creation or repayment of intercompany debt, increasing or decreasing of cash pool balances or otherwise), and (ii) all Intercompany agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings, including all obligations to provide goods, services or other benefits, whether or not in writing, between or among TFMC or any member of the TFMC Group, on the one hand, and TEN or any member of the TEN Group, on the other hand (other than as set forth in Section 1.3(b)), without further payment or performance such that no party thereto shall have any further obligations therefor or thereunder. No such terminated balance, account, agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding (including any provision thereof which purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Effective Time. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of any other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing.

(b) The provisions of Section 1.3(a) shall not apply to any of the following agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings (or to any of the provisions thereof): (i) this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (and each other agreement or instrument expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be entered into by any of the Parties or any of the members of their respective Group, including, for the avoidance of doubt, those agreements and instruments entered into in connection with the TFMC Financing Arrangements or the TEN Financing Arrangements); (ii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings filed as an exhibit, whether in preliminary or final form, to the EU Prospectus or the Form F-1 or otherwise listed or described on Schedule 1.3(b)(ii); (iii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings to which any Person other than the Parties and the members of their respective Group is a party (it being understood that to the extent that the rights and obligations of the Parties and the members of their respective Group under any such agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings constitute TEN Assets, TFMC Assets, TEN Liabilities or TFMC Liabilities, they shall be assigned pursuant to Section 1.1(a) to the extent they are not already held by a member of the applicable Group); (iv) any Shared Contracts; and (v) any other agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings that this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement expressly contemplates shall survive the Effective Time.

1.4 Treatment of Shared Contracts. Subject to applicable Law and except as otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, and without limiting the generality of the obligations set forth in Section 1.1, unless the Parties otherwise agree or the benefits of any Contract described in this Section 1.4 are expressly conveyed to the applicable Party pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, any Contract entered into by a member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group with a third party that is not a TEN Asset, but pursuant to which a member of the TEN Group, as of the Effective Time, has been provided certain revenues or other benefits or incurred any Liability (any such Contract, a “Shared Contract”) shall not be assigned in relevant part to the applicable members of the TEN Group or amended to give the relevant members of the TEN Group any entitlement to such rights and benefits thereunder; provided, however, that the Parties shall, and shall cause each of the members of their respective Group to, take such other reasonable and permissible actions to cause to the extent permitted under applicable Law: (i) the relevant member of the TEN Group to receive the rights and benefits previously provided in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, pursuant to such Shared Contract; and (ii) the relevant member of the TEN Group to bear the burden of the applicable Liabilities previously borne in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, under such Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the provisions of Schedule 1.4, no member of the TFMC Group shall be required by this Section 1.4 to maintain in effect any Shared Contract, and no member of the TEN Group shall have any approval or other rights with respect to any amendment, termination or other modification of any Shared Contract.

1.5 Treatment of Shared Permits. Subject to applicable Law and except as otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, and without limiting the generality of the obligations set forth in Section 1.1, unless the Parties otherwise agree or the benefits of any Permit described in this Section 1.5 are expressly conveyed to the applicable Party pursuant to this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, any Permit used in connection with both the TFMC Business and the TEN Business, including those listed on Schedule 1.5(a) (any such permit, a “Shared Permit”), shall remain with the member of the TFMC Group or TEN Group, as applicable, in possession of such Shared Permit at the Effective Time; provided, however, that the Parties shall, and shall cause each of the members of their respective Group to, take such other reasonable and permissible actions to cause to the extent permitted under applicable Law: (i) the relevant member of the TFMC Group or TEN Group that is not in possession of such Shared Permit, to receive the rights and benefits previously provided in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practice, pursuant to such Shared Permit; and (ii) such member of the TFMC Group or TEN Group to bear the burden of the Liabilities under such Shared Permit to the extent arising out of such use. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except for the Shared Permits set forth on Schedule 1.5(b), no member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group, as applicable, shall be required by this Section 1.5 to maintain in effect any Shared Permit in its possession following the Effective Time, and no member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group shall have any approval or other rights with respect to any amendment, termination or other modification of any Shared Permit not held by a member of its respective Group following the Effective Time.

1.6 Bank Accounts; Cash Balances; Misdirected Payments.

(a) Each Party agrees to take, or cause the applicable members of its respective Group to take, at the Effective Time (or such earlier time as the Parties may agree), all actions necessary to amend all Contracts governing each bank and brokerage account, including lockbox accounts, owned by TFMC or any other member of the TFMC Group (collectively, the “TFMC Accounts”) so that such TFMC Accounts, if currently linked (whether by automatic withdrawal, automatic deposit or any other authorization to transfer funds from or to, hereinafter “linked”) to any bank or brokerage account, including lockbox accounts, owned by any member of the TEN Group (collectively, the “TEN Accounts”) are de-linked from the TEN Accounts.

(b) Each Party agrees to take, or cause the applicable members of its respective Group to take, at the Effective Time (or such earlier time as the Parties may agree), all actions necessary to amend all Contracts governing the TEN Accounts so that such TEN Accounts, if currently linked to an TFMC Account, are de-linked from the TFMC Accounts.

(c) It is intended that, following consummation of the actions contemplated by Sections 1.6(a) and 1.6(b), there shall be in place a centralized cash management process pursuant to which (i) the TFMC Accounts shall be managed centrally and funds collected shall be transferred into one or more centralized accounts maintained by TFMC and (ii) the TEN Accounts shall be managed centrally and funds collected shall be transferred into one or more centralized accounts maintained by TEN. Notwithstanding Section 1.1, but subject to TEN’s retention of the TEN cash, all cash on hand at any member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group as of the Effective Time shall be assigned, transferred or paid over to or retained by TFMC. Any cash in the TEN Accounts after the Effective Time that belongs to any member of the TFMC Group shall be transferred by the applicable member of the TEN Group to any member of the TFMC Group designated by TFMC.

(d) With respect to any outstanding checks issued or payments initiated by TFMC, TEN or any of their respective Group members prior to the Effective Time, such outstanding checks and payments shall be honored following the Effective Time by the Person or Group owning the account on which the check is drawn or from which the payment was initiated. In addition, any outstanding checks or payments issued by a third party for the benefit of TFMC, TEN or any of their respective Group members prior to the Effective Time shall be honored following the Effective Time and payment shall be made to the party to whom the check or payment was issued.

(e) With respect to the payments described in Section 1.6(d), in the event that:

(i) TEN or one of its Group members initiates a payment prior to the Effective Time that is honored following the Effective Time, and to the extent such payment relates to the TFMC Business, then TFMC shall reimburse TEN for such payment as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than seven (7) days after such payment is honored; or

(ii) TFMC or one of its Group members initiates a payment prior to the Effective Time that is honored following the Effective Time, and to the extent such payment relates to the TEN Business, then TEN shall reimburse TFMC for such payment as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than seven (7) days after such payment is honored.

(f) Prior to or concurrently with the Effective Time, (i) TFMC shall cause all TFMC employees to be removed as authorized signatories on all bank accounts maintained by the TEN Group and (ii) TEN shall cause all TEN employees to be removed as authorized signatories on all bank accounts maintained by the TFMC Group.

(g) As between TFMC and TEN (for purposes of this Section 1.6(g), each a “Specified Party”) (and the members of their respective Group), all payments made to and reimbursements received by either Specified Party (or any member of its Group), in each case after the Effective Time, that relate to a business, Asset or Liability of the other Specified Party (or any member of such other Specified Party’s Group) (each, a “Misdirected Payment”), shall be held in trust by the recipient Specified Party for the use and benefit of the other Specified Party (or member of such other Specified Party’s Group entitled thereto) (at the expense of the party entitled thereto). Each Specified Party shall maintain an accounting of any such Misdirected Payments received by such Specified Party or any member of its Group, and the Specified Parties shall have a weekly reconciliation, whereby all such Misdirected Payments received by each Specified Party are calculated and the net amount owed to the other Specified Party (or members of the other Specified Party’s Group) shall be paid over to the other Specified Party (for further distribution to the applicable members of such other Specified Party’s Group). If at any time the net amount in respect of Misdirected Payments owed to either Specified Party exceeds $1,000,000, an interim payment of such net amount owed shall be made to the Specified Party entitled thereto within three (3) Business Days of such amount exceeding $1,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Specified Party (nor any of the members of its Group) shall act as collection agent for the other Specified Party (or any of the members of its Group), nor shall either Specified Party (or any members of its Group) act as surety or endorser with respect to non-sufficient funds checks, or funds to be returned in a bankruptcy or fraudulent conveyance action.

1.7 Misallocated Assets and Liabilities.

(a) In the event that, at any time from and after the Effective Time, either Party discovers that it or another member of its Group is the owner of, receives or otherwise comes to possess or benefit from any Asset (including the receipt of payments made pursuant to Contracts and proceeds from accounts receivable with respect to such Asset) that should have been allocated to a member of the other Group pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (except in the case of any deliberate acquisition of Assets from a member of the other Group for value subsequent to the Effective Time), such Party shall promptly (but in no case later than within thirty (30) days of discovery of such misallocated Asset) transfer, or cause to be transferred, such Asset to such member of the other Group, and such member of the other Group shall accept such Asset for no further consideration other than that set forth in this Agreement and such Ancillary Agreement. Prior to any such transfer, such Asset shall be held in accordance with Section 1.2.

(b) In the event that, at any time from and after the Effective Time, either Party discovers that it or another member of its Group is liable for any Liability that should have been allocated to a member of the other Group pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (except in the case of any deliberate assumption of Liabilities from a member of the other Group for value subsequent to the Effective Time), such Party shall promptly (but in no case later than within thirty (30) days of discovery of such misallocated Liability) transfer, or cause to be transferred, such Liability to such member of the other Group and such member of the other Group shall assume such Liability for no further consideration than that set forth in this Agreement and such Ancillary Agreement.

(f) any breach by TEN or any member of the TEN Group of the DPA.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall TEN or any other member of the TEN Group have any obligations under this Section 3.3 with respect to Liabilities subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 3.2.

3.4 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds.

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

(b) It is expressly agreed and understood that all rights to indemnification, contribution and reimbursement pursuant to this Article III are in excess of all available insurance. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties agree that an insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of any provision contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions hereof) by virtue of the Liability allocation, indemnification and contribution provisions hereof. Accordingly, any provision herein that could have the result of giving any insurer or other Third Party such a “windfall” shall be suspended or amended to the extent necessary to not provide such “windfall.” Each Party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the probability of success on the merits and the cost of expending such efforts, including attorney’s fees and expenses) to collect or recover, or allow the Indemnifying Party to collect or recover, any Insurance Proceeds that may be collectible or recoverable respecting the Liabilities for which indemnification or contribution may be available under this Article III. The Indemnitee shall make available to the Indemnifying Party and its counsel all employees, books and records, communications, documents, items or matters within its knowledge, possession or control that are necessary, appropriate or reasonably deemed relevant by the Indemnifying Party with respect to the recovery of such Insurance Proceeds; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall be deemed to require a Party to make available books and records, communications, documents or items that (i) in such Party’s good faith judgment could result in a waiver of any privilege even if the Parties cooperated to protect such privilege as contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) such Party is not permitted to make available because of any Law or any confidentiality obligation to a Third Party, in which case such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek a waiver of or other relief from such confidentiality restriction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnifying Party may not delay making any indemnification payment required under the terms of this Agreement, or otherwise satisfying any indemnification obligation, pending the outcome of any Action to collect or recover Insurance Proceeds, and an Indemnitee need not attempt to collect any Insurance Proceeds prior to making a claim for indemnification or contribution or receiving any Indemnity Payment otherwise owed to it under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(c) Each of TFMC and TEN shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, when appropriate, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain waivers of subrogation for each of the insurance policies described in Section 3.15. Each of TFMC and TEN hereby waives, for itself and each member of its Group, its rights to recover against the other Party in subrogation or as subrogee for a third Person.

(d) For all claims as to which indemnification is provided under Section 3.2 or 3.3 other than Third-Party Claims (as to which Section 3.5 shall apply), the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnitee for the enforcement of the indemnity obligations shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.

3.5 Procedures for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) If, at or after the date of this Agreement, an Indemnitee shall receive written notice from, or otherwise learn of the assertion by, a Person (including any Governmental Entity) who is not a member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group (a “Third Party”) of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”) with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3, or any other Section of this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof within fourteen (14) days of receipt of such written notice. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide notice in accordance with this Section 3.5(a) shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party shall demonstrate that it was materially prejudiced by the Indemnitee’s failure to provide notice in accordance with this Section 3.5(a).

(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of any applicable insurance policy in place after the Effective Time, an Indemnifying Party may elect to defend (and to seek to settle or compromise), at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel; provided, that the Indemnifying Party will not select counsel without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 3.5(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its election whether the Indemnifying Party shall assume responsibility for defending such Third-Party Claim.

(c) If an Indemnifying Party has elected to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, then such Indemnifying Party shall be solely liable for all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim and shall not be entitled to seek any indemnification or reimbursement from the Indemnitee for any such fees or expenses incurred during the course of its defense of such Third-Party Claim, regardless of any subsequent decision by the Indemnifying Party to reject or otherwise abandon its assumption of such defense. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending any Third-Party Claim or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election within thirty (30) daysafter receipt of a notice from an Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall have the right to control the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in which case the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(d) Notwithstanding an election by an Indemnifying Party to defend a Third-Party Claim in circumstances where an Indemnifying Party is permitted to make such an election pursuant to Section 3.5(b), an Indemnitee may, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party, elect to take over the defense of such Third-Party Claim if (i) in its exercise of reasonable business judgment, the Indemnitee determines that the Indemnifying Party is not defending such Third-Party Claim competently or in good faith, (ii) the Indemnitee determines in its exercise of reasonable business judgment that there exists a compelling business reason for such Indemnitee to defend such Third-Party Claim (other than as contemplated by the foregoing clause (i)), (iii) the Indemnifying Party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, has filed against it or files a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency or is declared bankrupt or insolvent or declares that it is bankrupt or insolvent, or (iv) there occurs a change of control of the Indemnifying Party.

(e) An Indemnitee that does not conduct and control the defense of any Third-Party Claim, or an Indemnifying Party that has failed to elect to defend or that is not permitted to elect or defend pursuant to Section 3.5(b), any Third-Party Claim as contemplated hereby, nevertheless shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as appropriate) of its own choosing to monitor and participate in (but not control) the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which it is a potential Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, and the provisions of Section 3.5(c) shall not apply to such fees and expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Party shall cooperate with the Party entitled to conduct and control the defense of such Third-Party Claim in such defense and make available to the controlling Party, at the non-controlling Party’s expense, all witnesses, information and materials in such Party’s possession or under such Party’s control relating thereto as are reasonably required by the controlling Party. In addition to the foregoing and the last sentence of Section 3.2(b), if any Indemnitee shall in good faith determine that such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party have actual or potential differing defenses or conflicts of interest between them that make joint representation inappropriate, then the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel as appropriate) and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise or settlement of the applicable Third-Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees and expenses of one such counsel and local counsel (as appropriate) for all Indemnitees.

(f) Neither Party may settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, unless such settlement or compromise is solely for monetary damages, does not involve any finding or determination of Liability, wrongdoing or violation of Law by the other Party and provides for a full, unconditional and irrevocable release of the other Party, the members of the other Party’s respective Group and each of their respective past, present and future directors, officers, employees and agents, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing from all Liability in connection with the Third-Party Claim. The Parties hereby agree that if a Party presents the other Party with a written notice containing a proposal to settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim for which either Party is seeking to be indemnified hereunder and the Party receiving such proposal does not respond in any manner to the Party presenting such proposal within thirty (30) days(or within any such shorter time period that may be required by applicable Law or court order) of receipt of such proposal, then the Party receiving such proposal shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such proposal.

(g) The provisions of this Section 3.5 (other than this Section 3.5(g)) and the provisions of Section 3.6 (other than Section 3.6(f)) shall not apply to Taxes (Taxes being governed by the Tax Matters Agreement).

(h) The Indemnifying Party shall establish a procedure reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee to keep the Indemnitee reasonably informed of the progress of the Third-Party Claim and to notify the Indemnitee when any such Third-Party Claim is closed, regardless of whether such Third-Party Claim was resolved by settlement, verdict, dismissal or otherwise.

3.6 Additional Matters.

(a) Indemnification payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Article III shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the Indemnitee, including reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. THE COVENANTS AND OBLIGATIONS CONTAINED IN THIS ARTICLE III SHALL REMAIN OPERATIVE AND IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT, REGARDLESS OF (I) ANY INVESTIGATION MADE BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY INDEMNITEE AND (II) THE KNOWLEDGE BY THE INDEMNITEE OF LIABILITIES FOR WHICH IT MIGHT BE ENTITLED TO INDEMNIFICATION HEREUNDER.

(b) Any claim on account of a Liability that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) daysafter the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If after such thirty (30)-day period, such claim is not resolved, Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of an Indemnitee to provide notice in accordance with this Section 3.6(b) shall not relieve an Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent to which the Indemnifying Party shall demonstrate that it was materially prejudiced by the Indemnitee’s failure to provide notice in accordance with this Section 3.6(b).

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

(d) In the event of an Action for which indemnification is sought pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3 and in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant for the portion of the Action related to such indemnification claim.

(e) In the event that TFMC or TEN establishes a risk accrual in an amount of at least $1,000,000 with respect to any Third-Party Claim for which such Party has indemnified the other Party pursuant to Section 3.2 or Section 3.3, as applicable, it shall notify the other Party of the existence and amount of such risk accrual (i.e., when the accrual is recorded in the financial statements as an accrual for a potential liability), subject to the Parties entering into an appropriate agreement with respect to the confidentiality and/or privilege thereof.

(f) Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, the Parties will treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement by TFMC to TEN, or vice versa, in the same manner as if such payment were a non-taxable distribution or capital contribution, as the case may be, made immediately prior to the Distribution, except to the extent that TFMC and TEN treat a payment as the settlement of an Intercompany liability; provided, however, that any such payment that is made or received by a Person other than TFMC or TEN, as the case may be, shall be treated as if made or received by the payor or the recipient as agent for TFMC or TEN, in each case as appropriate.

(g) THE RELEASES AND INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXPRESSLY INTENDED, AND SHALL OPERATE AND BE CONSTRUED, TO APPLY EVEN WHERE THE LIABILITIES FOR WHICH THE RELEASE AND/OR INDEMNITY ARE GIVEN ARE CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY THE SOLE, JOINT, JOINT AND SEVERAL, CONCURRENT, CONTRIBUTORY, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE OR THE STRICT LIABILITY OR FAULT OF THE PARTY BEING RELEASED OR INDEMNIFIED.

3.7 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of TFMC and TEN and their respective Indemnitees under this Article III shall remain operative and in full force and effect indefinitely and shall survive (a) the sale or other transfer by any Party of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities, and (b) any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of all or substantially all of the Assets, restructuring, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction involving either Party or any of its respective Subsidiaries.

3.8 Right of Contribution.

(a) Contribution. If any right of indemnification contained in this Article III is held unenforceable or is unavailable for any reason, or is insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Liability for which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amounts (including any costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, disbursements and expenses of counsel, expert and consulting fees and costs related thereto or to the investigation or defense thereof) paid or payable by the Indemnitees as a result of such Liability (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and the members of its Group, on the one hand, and the Indemnitees entitled to contribution, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b) Allocation of Relative Fault. Solely for purposes of determining relative fault pursuant to this Section 3.8 in circumstances in which the indemnification is unavailable because of a fault associated with the business conducted by TFMC, TEN or a member of their respective Group, (i) any fault associated with the business conducted with the TFMC Assets or TFMC Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of TEN or a member of the TEN Group) or with the ownership, operation or activities of the TFMC Business shall be deemed to be the fault of TFMC and the members of the TFMC Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of TEN or a member of the TEN Group; and (ii) any fault associated with the business conducted with the TEN Assets or the TEN Liabilities (except for the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of TFMC or the members of the TFMC Group) or with the ownership, operation or activities of the TEN Business shall be deemed to be the fault of TEN and the members of the TEN Group, and no such fault shall be deemed to be the fault of TFMC or the members of the TFMC Group.

3.9 Covenant Not to Sue (Liabilities and Indemnity). Each Party hereby covenants and agrees that none of it, the members of such Party’s Group or any Person claiming through it shall bring suit or otherwise assert any claim against any Indemnitee, or assert a defense against any claim asserted by any Indemnitee, before any court, arbitrator, mediator or administrative agency anywhere in the world, alleging that: (a) the assumption of any TEN Liabilities by TEN or a member of the TEN Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason; (b) the assumption of any TFMC Liabilities by TFMC or a member of the TFMC Group on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements is void or unenforceable for any reason; or (c) the provisions of this Article III are void or unenforceable for any reason.

3.10 No Impact on Third Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the indemnifications provided for in this Article III are made only for purposes of allocating responsibility for Liabilities between the TFMC Group, on the one hand, and the TEN Group, on the other hand, and are not intended to, and shall not, affect any obligations to, or give rise to any rights of, any third parties.

3.11 No Cross-Claims or Third-Party Claims. Each of TFMC and TEN agrees that it shall not, and shall not permit the members of its respective Group to, in connection with any Third-Party Claim, assert as a counterclaim or third-party claim against any member of the TFMC Group or TEN Group, respectively, any claim (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, any breach or alleged breach hereof, the transactions contemplated hereby (including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the date hereof), or the construction, interpretation, enforceability or validity hereof, which in each such case shall be asserted only as contemplated by Article VI.

3.12 Severability. If any indemnification provided for in this Article III is determined by the sole arbitrator or arbitral tribunal (as the case may be) to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the liability shall be apportioned between the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party as determined in a separate proceeding in accordance with Article VI.

3.13 Exclusivity. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.13, the sole and exclusive remedy for any and all claims, Liabilities or other matters based upon, relating to or arising from this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be the rights of indemnification set forth in this Article III, and no Person shall have any other entitlement, remedy or recourse, whether in contract, tort, strict liability, equitable remedy or otherwise, it being agreed that all of such other remedies, entitlements and recourse are expressly waived and released by the Parties to the fullest extent permitted by Law. This Section 3.13 shall not operate to interfere with or impede the operation of the covenants contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, with respect to a Party’s right to seek equitable remedies (including specific performance or injunctive relief).

3.14 Cooperation in Defense and Settlement.

(a) With respect to any Third-Party Claim that implicates both Parties in a material fashion due to the allocation of Liabilities, responsibilities for management of defense and related indemnities pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that will preserve for the Parties the attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect thereto).

(b) To the extent there are documents, other materials, access to employees or witnesses related to or from a Party that is not responsible for the defense or Liability of a particular Action, such Party shall provide to the other Party (at such other Party’s cost and expense) reasonable access to documents, other materials, employees, and shall permit employees, officers and directors to cooperate as witnesses in the defense of such Action.

(c) Each of TFMC and TEN agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action currently exists or is commenced by a Third Party with respect to which a Party (or the members of its Group) is a named defendant, but the defense of such Action and any recovery in such Action is otherwise not a Liability allocated under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to that Party, then the other Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the named but not liable defendant to be removed from such Action and such defendants shall not be required to make any payments or contributions therewith. In the case of any such Action, (i) if there is a conflict of interest that under applicable rules of professional conduct would preclude legal counsel for one Party or one of its Subsidiaries representing another Party or one of its Subsidiaries or (ii) if any Third-Party Claim seeks equitable relief that would restrict or limit the future conduct of the non-responsible Party or one of its Subsidiaries or the business or operations of such non-responsible Party or one of its Subsidiaries, then the non-responsible Party shall be entitled to retain, at its expense, separate legal counsel to represent its interest and to participate in the defense, compromise, or settlement of that portion of the Third-Party Claim against that Party or one of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, TEN agrees to, and shall cause the members of the TEN Group to, take the actions set forth on Schedule 3.14(c).

(d) TEN agrees (i) that the DPA, including any obligations thereunder, is applicable in full force to TEN and (ii) that pursuant to Section 19 of the DPA, the Fraud Section’s (as such term is defined in the DPA) and the Office’s (as such term is defined in the DPA) ability to breach under the DPA is applicable in full force to TEN.

(e) TEN agrees that it shall, or shall cause the applicable member of the TEN Group to, timely pay any amounts due pursuant to those certain Leniency Agreements with the Controladoria Geral Da União (CGU), A Advocacia-Geral Da União (AGU) and Ministério Público Federal in Brazil.

3.15 Insurance Matters.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 3.15, the Parties acknowledge and agree that from and after the Effective Time, TEN, and each other member of the TEN Group, shall cease to be an insured, and shall not have access to or any rights under, any insurance policies or self-insured programs or related policies or agreements of TFMC and each other member of the TFMC Group, regardless of whether such policies were applicable to the TEN Group prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to events or circumstances relating to the TEN Group that occurred or existed prior to the Effective Time that are covered by third party “occurrence-based” liability insurance policies of the TFMC Group (but excluding any self-insured, captive insurance or similar program) under which TEN and each other member of the TEN Group were insured on or prior to the Effective Time (the “Shared Policies”), TEN shall have the right (to the extent, if at all, permitted under such policies) to make claims, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions thereof; provided that TEN shall bear, and neither TFMC nor any other member of the TFMC Group, shall have any obligation to repay or reimburse TEN for, the amount of any deductibles, self-insured retentions and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such claims under such occurrence-based policies. TFMC agrees, at TEN’s request, to reasonably cooperate with TEN in the pursuit of such claims under the Shared Policies, in each case, at TEN’s sole cost and expense.

(b) After the Effective Time, TEN will acquire its own insurance policies covering the TEN Group and each of their respective directors, officers and employees.

(c) The provisions of this Agreement are not intended to and shall not relieve any insurer of any Liability under any policy.

(d) No member of the TFMC Group or any TFMC Indemnitee will have any Liability whatsoever as a result of or in relation to the insurance policies, including the Shared Policies, as in effect at any time before or after the Effective Time, including as a result of (i) the level or scope of any insurance, (ii) the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, (iii) the terms and conditions of any policy, (iv) the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim; (v) the administration, pursuit, or collection with respect to any claim; or (vi) the unavailability or denial of coverage for any other reason.

(e) TFMC and the members of the TFMC Group, as applicable, will continue to own all insurance policies, insurance contracts, and other related insurance agreements of TFMC and members of the TFMC Group which are or were in effect at any time prior to the Effective Time, including the Shared Policies. TFMC shall have the right, at its sole discretion and without liability to the TEN Group, to amend, terminate, buy-out, release, exhaust, extinguish liability, or otherwise modify any Shared Policies.

(f) This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any members of the TFMC Group in respect of any insurance policy or any other contract or policy of insurance.

(g) To the extent that any insurance policy provides for the reinstatement of policy limits, and both TFMC and TEN desire to reinstate such limits, the cost of reinstatement will be shared by TFMC and TEN as the Parties may agree. If either Party, in its sole discretion, determines that such reinstatement would not be beneficial, that Party shall not contribute to the cost of reinstatement.

(h) For purposes of this Agreement, “Covered Matter” shall mean any matter with respect to which any TEN Indemnitee is entitled to pursue coverage under any Shared Policy pursuant to Section 3.15(a). If TEN receives notice or otherwise learns of any Covered Matter, TEN shall promptly give TFMC written notice thereof. Any such notice shall describe the Covered Matter in reasonable detail. With respect to each Covered Matter and any Joint Claim, TEN shall have sole responsibility for reporting the claim to the insurance carrier and will provide a copy of such report to TFMC.

(i) Each of TEN and TFMC will share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit the other Party to manage and conduct its insurance matters in an orderly fashion and provide the other Party with any assistance that is reasonably necessary or beneficial in connection with such Party’s insurance matters.

(j) The Parties acknowledge that the terms and conditions of the policies re-insured by the Insurance Vehicle provide that upon the occurrence of the Effective Time, a five (5) year extended reporting period for TFMC and TEN will commence. From and after the Effective Time, both the members of the TFMC Group and the members of TEN Group may make claims to the Insurance Vehicle that shall be evaluated and paid in good faith in accordance with the terms and conditions of the policies re-insured by the Insurance Vehicle at the Effective Time. If payments by the Insurance Vehicle in any policy period exceed Euro 25,000,000 then the additional layers of excess coverage will drop down. From and after the Effective Time, (i) TEN shall cause the accounts of the Insurance Vehicle to remain actuarially sound and, if necessary, shall make period contributions to the Insurance Vehicle in connection therewith and (ii) TFMC shall have no obligations with respect to the Insurance Vehicle, including no obligation to make contributions to the Insurance Vehicle.

3.16 Guarantees, Letters of Credit and Other Obligations.

(a) On or prior to the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, TFMC shall (with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable members of the TFMC Group) use its commercially reasonable efforts to have any members of the TEN Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any TFMC Liability. On or prior to the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, TEN shall (with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable members of the TEN Group) use its commercially reasonable efforts to have any members of the TFMC Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any TEN Liabilities.

(b) On or prior to the Effective Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, (i) to the extent required to obtain a release from a guarantee, letter of credit or other obligation of any member of the TEN Group with respect to TFMC Liabilities, TFMC shall execute a substitute document in the form of any such existing guarantee or letter of credit, as applicable, or such other form as is agreed to by the relevant parties to such guarantee agreement, letter of credit or other obligation, except to the extent that such existing guarantee contains representations, covenants or other terms or provisions either (A) with which TFMC would be reasonably unable to comply or (B) which would be reasonably expected to be breached and (ii) to the extent required to obtain a release from a guarantee, letter of credit or other obligation of any member of the TFMC Group with respect to TEN Liabilities, TEN shall execute a substitute document in the form of any such existing guarantee or letter of credit, as applicable, or such other form as is agreed to by the relevant parties to such guarantee agreement, letter of credit or other obligation, except to the extent that such existing guarantee contains representations, covenants or other terms or provisions either (A) with which TEN would be reasonably unable to comply or (B) which would be reasonably expected to be breached.

(c) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 3.16, (i) with respect to TFMC Liabilities, (A) TFMC shall, and shall cause the other members of the TFMC Group to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the TEN Indemnitees from and against any Liability arising from or relating to such guarantee, letter of credit or other obligation, as applicable, and shall, as agent or subcontractor for the applicable TEN Group guarantor or obligor, pay, perform and discharge fully all of the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, and (B) TFMC shall not, and shall cause the other members of the TFMC Group not to, agree to renew or extend the term of, increase any obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any loan, guarantee, letter of credit, lease, contract or other obligation for which a member of the TEN Group is or may be liable unless all obligations of the members of the TEN Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation satisfactory in form and substance to TEN in its sole and absolute discretion and (ii) with respect to TEN Liabilities, (A) TEN shall, and shall cause the other members of the TEN Group to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the TFMC Indemnitees for any Liability arising from or relating to such guarantee, letter of credit or other obligation, as applicable, and shall, as agent or subcontractor for the applicable TFMC Group guarantor or obligor, pay, perform and discharge fully all of the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, and (B) TEN shall not, and shall cause the other members of the TEN Group not to, agree to renew or extend the term of, increase any obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any loan, guarantee, letter of credit, lease, contract or other obligation for which a member of the TFMC Group is or may be liable unless all obligations of the members of the TFMC Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation satisfactory in form and substance to TFMC in its sole and absolute discretion.

ARTICLE IV.

EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY

4.1 Agreement for Exchange of Information. Except as otherwise provided in any Ancillary Agreement, each of TFMC and TEN, on behalf of itself and the members of its respective Group, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or make available, or cause to be provided or made available, to the other Party, at any time before or after the Effective Time, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, any Information (or a copy thereof) in the possession or under the control of either Party or any of the members of its Group to the extent that: (i) such Information relates to the TEN Business or any TEN Asset or TEN Liability, if TEN is the requesting party, or to the TFMC Business or any TFMC Asset or TFMC Liability, if TFMC is the requesting party; (ii) such Information is required by the requesting party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; or (iii) such Information is required by the requesting party to comply with any obligation imposed by any Governmental Entity; provided, however, that, in the event that the Party to whom the request has been made determines that any such provision of Information could be commercially detrimental, violate any Law or agreement or waive any attorney-client privilege, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to permit compliance with such obligations to the extent and in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. The Party providing Information pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall only be obligated to provide such Information in the form, condition and format in which it then exists and in no event shall such Party be required to perform any improvement, modification, conversion, updating or reformatting of any such Information, and nothing in this Section 4.1 shall expand the obligations of the Parties under Section 4.4.

4.2 Ownership of Information. Any Information owned by one Group that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.7 shall remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such Information.

4.3 Compensation for Providing Information. The Party requesting Information agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs, if any, of gathering, copying, transporting and otherwise complying with the request with respect to such Information (including any costs and expenses incurred in any review of Information for purposes of protecting the privileged Information of the providing Party or in connection with the restoration of backup media for purposes of providing the requested Information). Except as may be otherwise specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties, such costs shall reflect the providing Party’s actual costs and expenses.

4.4 Record Retention.

(a) The Parties agree and acknowledge that following the Effective Time, it is likely that each Party will have some of the Tangible Information of the other Party stored at its facilities or at Third Party records storage locations arranged for by such Party (each, a “Records Facility”) and the cost of any Third Party Records Facility where Tangible Information belonging to both members of the TFMC Group, on the one hand, and members of the TEN Group, on the other hand, is stored shall be split equitably between the TFMC Group and the TEN Group.

(b) For a period of ten (10) years following the Effective Time, each Party shall use the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar Information: (i) to maintain the Stored Records at its Record Facility in accordance with its regular records retention policies and procedures and the terms of this Section 4.4; and (ii) to comply with the requirements of any “litigation hold” that relates to Stored Records at its Record Facility that relates to (x) any Action that is pending as of the Effective Time or (y) any Action that arises or becomes threatened or reasonably anticipated after the Effective Time as to which the Party storing such Stored Records has received a written notice of the applicable “litigation hold” from the other Party; provided, that such other Party shall be obligated to provide the Party storing such Stored Records with timely notice of the termination of such “litigation hold.”

4.5 Limitations of Liability. No Party shall have any liability to any other Party relating to or arising out of (a) any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to Section 4.1 that is found to be inaccurate in the absence of willful misconduct by the Party providing such Information or (b) the destruction of any Information after commercially reasonable efforts by such Party to comply with the provisions of Section 4.4.

4.6 Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information.

(a) The rights and obligations granted under this Article IV are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange, retention or confidential treatment of Information set forth herein or any Ancillary Agreement.

(b) Either Party that receives, pursuant to a request for Information in accordance with this Article IV, Tangible Information that is not relevant to its request shall (i) return it to the providing Party or, at the providing Party’s request, destroy such Tangible Information and (ii) deliver to the providing Party a certificate certifying that such Tangible Information was returned or destroyed, as the case may be, which certificate shall be signed by an authorized Representative of the requesting Party.

(c) When any Tangible Information provided by one Party to the other Party (other than Tangible Information provided pursuant to Section 4.4) is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or is no longer required to be retained by applicable Law, the receiving Party shall promptly, after request of the other Party, either return to the other Party all Tangible Information in the form in which it was originally provided (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or, if the providing Party has requested that the other Party destroy such Tangible Information, certify to the other Party that it has destroyed such Tangible Information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); provided, that this obligation to return or destroy such Tangible Information shall not apply to any Tangible Information solely related to the receiving Party’s business, Assets, Liabilities, operations or activities.

4.7 Auditors and Audits.

(a) Until the first TEN fiscal year end occurring after the Effective Time and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs, each Party shall provide or provide access to the other Party on a timely basis, all information reasonably required to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of its annual financial statements and for management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures and its internal control over financial reporting in accordance with, as applicable, Items 307 and 308, respectively, of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC and, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor’s audit of its internal control over financial reporting and management’s assessment thereof in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the SEC’s and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s rules and auditing standards thereunder.

(b) Until the first TEN fiscal year end occurring after the Effective Time and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year during which the Distribution Date occurs, each Party shall provide or provide access to the other Party on a timely basis, all information reasonably required to meet its schedule for the preparation, printing, filing, and public dissemination of its annual financial statements and for management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its risk management and control system in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as applied in the European Union and Article 2:362(9) of the Dutch Civil Code and Article 5:25c of the Financial Markets Supervision Act and, to the extent applicable to such Party, its auditor’s audit of TEN’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as applied in the European Union, Title 9 of Book 2 of the Dutch Civil Code and rules and auditing standards thereunder.

(c) In the event a Party restates any of its financial statements that include such Party’s audited or unaudited financial statements with respect to any balance sheet date or period of operation as of the end of and for the 2021 fiscal year and the four (4) year period ending December 31, 2021, such Party will deliver to the other Party a substantially final draft, as soon as the same is prepared, of any report to be filed by such first Party with the AFM, the AMF or the SEC that includes such restated audited or unaudited financial statements (the “Amended Financial Report”); provided, however, that such first Party may continue to revise its Amended Financial Report prior to its filing thereof with the AFM, the AMF or the SEC, which changes will be delivered to the other Party as soon as reasonably practicable; provided, further, however, that such first Party’s financial personnel will actively consult with the other Party’s financial personnel regarding any changes which such first Party may consider making to its Amended Financial Report and related disclosures prior to the anticipated filing of such report with the AFM, the AMF or the SEC, with particular focus on any changes which would have an effect upon the other Party’s financial statements or related disclosures. Each Party will reasonably cooperate with, and permit and make any necessary employees available to, the other Party, in connection with the other Party’s preparation of any Amended Financial Reports.

4.8 Privileged Matters.

(a) The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and shall be provided prior to the Effective Time have been and shall be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the TFMC Group and the TEN Group, and that each of the members of the TFMC Group and the TEN Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such services for the purposes of asserting all privileges and immunities that may be asserted under applicable Law in connection therewith. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services will be provided after the Effective Time, which services will be rendered solely for the benefit of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group, as the case may be.

(b) The Parties agree as follows:

(i) TFMC shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information, other than such Privileged Information that relates solely to the TEN Business or TEN Liabilities, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of a member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group, and TEN Group agrees not to disclose any such Privileged Information to any Third Party;

(ii) TEN shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to the TEN Business, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of a member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group; TEN shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any Privileged Information that relates solely to any TEN Liabilities resulting from any Actions that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the Privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of a member of the TFMC Group or the TEN Group; and

(iii) If the Parties do not agree as to whether certain information is Privileged Information, then such information shall be treated as Privileged Information, and the Party that believes that such information is Privileged Information shall be entitled to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges and immunities in connection with any such information until such time as it is finally judicially determined that such information is not Privileged Information or unless the Parties otherwise agree. The Parties shall use the procedures set forth in Article VI to resolve any Disputes as to whether any information relates solely to the TFMC Business, solely to the TEN Business, or to both the TFMC Business and the TEN Business.

(c) Subject to Sections 4.8(d) and 4.8(e), the Parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege or immunity with respect to all privileges not allocated pursuant to Section 4.8(b) and all privileges and immunities relating to any Actions or other matters that involve both Parties (or one or more members of their respective Group) and in respect of which both Parties have Liabilities under this Agreement, and that no such shared privilege or immunity may be waived by either Party without the written consent of the other Party.

(d) If any dispute arises between the Parties, or any member of their respective Group, regarding whether a privilege or immunity should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either Party and/or any member of their respective Group, each Party agrees that it shall: (i) negotiate with the other Party in good faith, (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party and (iii) not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Party. Further, each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold its consent to the waiver of a privilege or immunity for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(e) Upon receipt by any member of the TEN Group of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which TFMC or any of its Subsidiaries has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if TEN obtains knowledge that any of its, or any member of the TEN Group’s, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, TEN shall promptly provide written notice to TFMC of the existence of the request (which notice shall be delivered to TFMC no later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of any such subpoena, discovery or other request) and shall provide TFMC a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it or they may have, including under this Section 4.8 or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(f) Upon receipt by any member of the TFMC Group of any subpoena, discovery or other request that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of Information subject to a shared privilege or immunity or as to which TEN or any member of the TEN Group has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege or immunity, or if TFMC obtains knowledge that any of its, or any member of the TFMC Group’s, current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests that may reasonably be expected to result in the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, TFMC shall promptly provide written notice to TEN of the existence of the request (which notice shall be delivered to TEN no later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of any such subpoena, discovery or other request) and shall provide TEN a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it or they may have, including under this Section 4.8 or otherwise, to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(g) Any furnishing of, or access to, Information pursuant to this Agreement and the transfer of the Assets and retention of the TEN Assets by TEN are made and done in reliance on the agreement of the Parties set forth in this Section 4.8 and in Section 4.9 to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain all applicable privileges and immunities. The Parties agree that their respective rights to any access to information, witnesses and other Persons, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative efforts between the Parties contemplated by this Agreement, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and members of their respective Group pursuant to this Agreement, shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise. The Parties further agree that: (i) the exchange or retention by one Party to the other Party of any Privileged Information that should not have been transferred or retained, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms of this Article IV shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any privilege or immunity that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise with respect to such Privileged Information; and (ii) the Party receiving or retaining such Privileged Information shall promptly return or transfer, as the case may be, such Privileged Information to the Party who has the right to assert the privilege or immunity.

(h) In furtherance of, and without limitation to, the Parties’ agreement under this Section 4.8, TFMC and TEN shall, and shall cause their applicable Subsidiaries to, use reasonable efforts to maintain their respective separate and joint privileges and immunities, including by executing joint defense and/or common interest agreements where necessary or useful for this purpose.

4.9 Confidentiality.

(a) Confidentiality. From and after the Effective Time, subject to Section 4.10 and except as contemplated by or otherwise provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, TFMC, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries, and TEN, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries, agrees to hold, and to cause its respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that applies to TFMC’s confidential and proprietary information pursuant to policies in effect as of the Effective Time, all confidential or proprietary Information concerning the other Party (or its business) and the other Party’s Subsidiaries (or their respective businesses) that is either in its possession (including confidential or proprietary Information in its possession prior to the Effective Time) or furnished by the other Party or the other Party’s Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, and shall not use any such confidential or proprietary Information other than for such purposes as may be expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such confidential or proprietary Information has been: (i) in the public domain or generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Representatives in violation of this Agreement, (ii) later lawfully acquired from other sources by such Party or any of its Subsidiaries, which sources are not themselves bound by a confidentiality obligation or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality with respect to such confidential or proprietary Information or (iii) independently developed or generated without reference to or use of the respective proprietary or confidential Information of the other Party or any of its Subsidiaries. The foregoing restrictions shall not apply in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. If any confidential or proprietary Information of one Party or any of its Subsidiaries is disclosed to another Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with providing services to such first Party or any of its Subsidiaries under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then such disclosed confidential or proprietary Information shall be used only as required to perform such services.

(b) No Release; Return or Destruction. Each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any confidential or proprietary Information of the other Party addressed in Section 4.9(a) to any other Person, except its Representatives who need to know such Information in their capacities as such (who shall be advised of their obligations hereunder with respect to such Information), and except in compliance with Section 4.10. Without limiting the foregoing, when any Information furnished by the other Party after the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is no longer needed for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, each Party shall, at its option, promptly after receiving a written notice from the disclosing Party, either return to the disclosing Party all such Information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or certify to the disclosing Party that it has destroyed such Information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon); provided, however, that a Party shall not be required to destroy or return any such Information to the extent that (i) the Party is required to retain the Information in order to comply with any applicable Law, (ii) the Information has been backed up electronically pursuant to the Party’s standard document retention policies and will be managed and ultimately destroyed consistent with such policies or (iii) it is kept in the Party’s legal files for purposes of resolving any dispute that may arise under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(c) Third-Party Information; Privacy or Data Protection Laws. Each Party acknowledges that it and its respective Subsidiaries may presently have and, after the Effective Time, may gain access to or possession of confidential or proprietary Information of, or personal Information relating to, Third Parties: (i) that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements entered into between such Third Parties, on the one hand, and the other Party or the other Party’s Subsidiaries, on the other hand, prior to the Effective Time or (ii) that, as between the two parties, was originally collected by the other Party or the other Party’s Subsidiaries and that may be subject to and protected by privacy, data protection or other applicable Laws. Each Party agrees that it shall hold, protect and use, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Representatives to hold, protect and use, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary Information of, or personal Information relating to, Third Parties in accordance with privacy, data protection or other applicable Laws and the terms of any agreements that were either entered into before the Effective Time or affirmative commitments or representations that were made before the Effective Time by, between or among the other Party or the other Party’s Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and such Third Parties, on the other hand.

4.10 Protective Arrangements. In the event that either Party or any of its Subsidiaries is requested or required (by oral question, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) by any Governmental Entity or pursuant to applicable Law or the rules of any stock exchange on which the shares of the Party or any member of its Group are traded to disclose or provide any confidential or proprietary Information of the other Party (other than with respect to any such Information furnished pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.1 or 4.7, as applicable) that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall provide the other Party with written notice of such request or demand (to the extent legally permitted) as promptly as practicable under the circumstances so that such other Party shall have an opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order, at such other Party’s own cost and expense. In the event that such other Party fails to receive such appropriate protective order in a timely manner and the Party receiving the request or demand reasonably determines that its failure to disclose or provide such Information shall actually prejudice the Party receiving the request or demand, then the Party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide Information to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by its counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Entity, and the disclosing Party shall promptly provide the other Party with a copy of the information so disclosed, in the same form and format so disclosed, together with a list of all Persons to whom such information was disclosed, in each case to the extent legally permitted. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that either Party or any of its Subsidiaries receives an oral question, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process relating to the DPA or otherwise provides information regarding, or in connection with, the DPA to any Governmental Entity, such Party will provide a copy of the proposed response to such request or communication to the other Party at least five (5) days in advance of such response and both Parties agree to reasonably cooperate in the drafting of such response or communication. To the extent either Party independently discovers a matter that would potentially result in liability under the DPA for the other Party, such Party shall provide prompt notice of the discovery within five (5) days of such discovery, with such notice including the relevant underlying facts of the applicable matter. The Party receiving such notice will have an additional five (5) days following receipt of such notice to self-report such matter to the DOJ before the other Party contacts the DOJ to report such matter.

ARTICLE V.

FURTHER ASSURANCES AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS

5.1 Further Assurances.

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the Parties hereto shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, prior to, on and after the Effective Time, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Laws, regulations and agreements, to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, prior to, on and after the Effective Time, each Party hereto shall cooperate with each other Party hereto, and without any further consideration, but at the expense of the requesting Party, to execute and deliver, or use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be executed and delivered, all instruments, including instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and to make all filings with, and to obtain or make any Approvals or Notifications of, any Governmental Entity or any other Person under any permit, license, agreement, indenture or other instrument (including any Third Party consents or Governmental Approvals), and to take all such other actions as such Party may reasonably be requested to take by any other Party hereto from time to time, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, in order to effectuate the provisions and purposes of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the transfers of the TEN Assets and the assignment and assumption of the TEN Liabilities and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party shall, at the reasonable request, cost and expense of any other Party, take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to vest in such other Party all of the transferring Party’s right, title and interest to the Assets allocated to such Party by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, in each case, if and to the extent it is practicable to do so.

(c) On or prior to the Effective Time, TFMC and TEN in their respective capacities as direct and indirect shareholders of their respective Subsidiaries, shall each ratify any actions that are reasonably necessary or desirable to be taken by any Subsidiary of TFMC or Subsidiary of TEN, as the case may be, to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

5.2 Performance. TFMC shall cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement to be performed by any member of the TFMC Group. TEN shall cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement to be performed by any member of the TEN Group. Each Party (including its permitted successors and assigns) further agrees that it shall (a) give timely notice of the terms, conditions and continuing obligations contained in this Section 5.2 to all of the other members of its Group, and (b) cause all of the other members of its Group not to take, or omit to take, any action which action or omission would violate or cause such Party to violate this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or materially impair such Party’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

5.3 Certain Restrictions and Non-Solicitation Provisions

(a) As an essential consideration for the obligations of the other Parties under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and in contemplation of the consummation of the Transactions, each of TFMC and TEN hereby agrees that, from the date hereof until the 5th anniversary of the Distribution Date:

(i) TFMC shall not, and it shall ensure that no member of its Group will, acquire or partner with any Person other than TEN with respect to engineering, procurement or construction activities relating to refining, liquified natural gas (LNG), petrochemicals, fertilizers, offshore fixed platforms, floating platforms or production units, or other floating structures (including, for example, mounting of wind turbines, hydrogen facilities & CO2 facilities etc), terrestrial renewables facilities (including but not limited to biofuels, waste-to-plastic, wind farms, hydrogen facilities, solar) and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) (the “TFMC Restricted Activities”), provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing shall restrict TFMC or any member of its Group from participating in any manner whatsoever in any submission, proposal, offer or project with a Person other than TEN who is engaged in TFMC Restricted Activities, as long as the scope of the participation of TFMC or the relevant member of its Group in any such submission, proposal, offer or project on a stand-alone basis (i.e., without taking into account the contribution of such other Person) does not include TFMC Restricted Activities; and

(ii) TEN shall not, and it shall ensure that no member of its Group will, acquire or partner with any Person other than TFMC with respect to manufacturing or engineering, procurement, construction and installation activities relating to Surface Technologies, Subsea (any activity below the surface of the water and offshore ancillary equipment) transition and renewable energy (including but not limited to wind, wave, tidal, subsea hydrogen storage and transportation, subsea carbon storage, injection and transportation, subsea field electrification), subsea mining, geothermal, or offshore & Subsea integrated projects (iEPCI) (collectively, the “TEN Restricted Activities”), provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this provision shall restrict TEN or any member of its Group from participating in any manner whatsoever in any submission, proposal, offer or project with a Person other than TFMC who is engaged in TEN Restricted Activities, as long as the scope of the participation of TEN or the relevant member of its Group in any such submission, proposal, offer or project on a stand-alone basis (i.e., without taking into account the contribution of such other Person) does not include TEN Restricted Activities. With respect to its Genesis business (or any successor thereof), TEN shall not, and it shall ensure that no members of its Group will, permit such business to acquire or partner with a competitor of TFMC for vendor-based studies or solutions, it being acknowledged and agreed that the continuation of Genesis’ existing agnostic studies business (but not its existing vendor-based studies) shall not be deemed a violation of this provision.

Except as otherwise noted in this Section 5.3, each of the Parties agrees that this Agreement shall not include any noncompetition or other similar restrictive arrangements with respect to the range of business activities that may be conducted, or investments that may be made, by the TFMC Group or the TEN Group.

(b) After the Distribution Date until the second anniversary thereof, TFMC and TEN shall not, and shall cause each other member of their respective Group and any employment agencies acting on their respective behalf not to, solicit, recruit or hire, without the express written consent of an authorized representative of the other Group, any Person who is employed by any member of the other Group at the time of such solicitation, recruitment or hiring. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this prohibition on solicitation, recruitment and hiring does not apply to the solicitation, recruitment or hiring of a Person that a Party has demonstrated is primarily as a result of that Person’s affirmative response to a general recruitment effort carried out through a public solicitation or general solicitation that does not specifically target any Person who was employed by a member of the other Party after the Distribution Date.

(c) It is the intention of each of the Parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained in this Section 5.3 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time that is not permitted by applicable Law, or is in any way construed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such provision shall not be construed to be null, void and of no effect, but to the extent such provision would be valid or enforceable under applicable Law, a court of competent jurisdiction shall construe and interpret or reform this Section 5.3 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained in this Section 5.3) as shall be valid and enforceable under such Law. Each of TFMC and TEN acknowledges that any breach of the terms, conditions or covenants set forth in this Section 5.3 shall be competitively unfair and may cause irreparable damage to the other Party because of the special, unique, unusual and extraordinary character of the business of TFMC and TEN, respectively, and the recovery of damages at Law will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that for any breach of the terms, covenants or agreements of this Section 5.3, a restraining order or an injunction or both may be issued against the breaching Party, in addition to any other rights or remedies a non-breaching Party may have.

(d) Except as expressly provided herein, or in the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that if any Person that is a member of a Group, including any officer or director thereof, acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for either or both Group, the other Group shall not have an interest in, or expectation that such opportunity be offered to it or that it be offered an opportunity to participate therein, and any such expectation with respect to such opportunity, is hereby renounced by such Group. Accordingly, except as expressly provided herein, or in the Ancillary Agreements, neither Group will be under any obligation to present, communicate or offer any such opportunity to the other Group and (ii) each Group has the right to hold any such opportunity for its own account, or to direct, recommend, sell, assign or otherwise transfer such opportunity to any Person or Persons other than the other Group, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, neither Group shall have or be under any duty to the other Group and shall not be liable to the other Group for any breach or alleged breach thereof or for any derivation of personal economic gain by reason of the fact that such Group or any of its officers or directors pursues or acquires the opportunity for itself, or directs, recommends, sells, assigns or otherwise transfers the opportunity to another Person, or such Group does not present, offer or communicate information regarding the opportunity to the other Group.

(e) For the purposes of this Section 5.3, “corporate opportunities” of a Group shall include business opportunities that such Group is financially able to undertake, that are, by their nature, in a line of business of such Group, are of practical advantage to it and are ones in which any member of the Group has an interest or a reasonable expectancy, and in which, by embracing the opportunities, the self-interest of a Person or any of its officers or directors will be brought into conflict with that of such Group.

5.4 Mail Forwarding. TFMC agrees that following the Effective Time it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to forward to TEN any correspondence relating to the TEN Business (or a copy thereof to the extent such correspondence relates to both the TFMC Business and the TEN Business) that is delivered to TFMC and TEN agrees that following the Effective Time it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to forward to TFMC any correspondence relating to the TFMC Business (or a copy thereof to the extent such correspondence relates to both the TFMC Business and the TEN Business) that is delivered to TEN.

5.5 Non-Disparagement. Each of the Parties shall not, and shall cause their respective Group and their respective officers and employees not to, make, or cause to be made, any statement or communicate any information (whether oral or written) that disparages the other Group or any of their respective officers, directors or employees.

5.6 Order of Precedence. The Parties acknowledge and confirm that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Transfer Documents, (i) to the extent that any provision of the Transfer Documents conflicts with this Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed to control with respect to the subject matter thereof and (ii) the Transfer Documents shall not be deemed in any way to amend, expand, restrict or otherwise modify such parties’ rights and obligations set forth in this Agreement.

5.7 TFMC Specified Marks.

(a) Notwithstanding any inference or prior course of conduct to the contrary and except as provided in this Section 5.7 or in the Trademark Matters Agreement:

(i) TEN acknowledges and agrees that the TFMC Specified Marks are owned solely by the TFMC Group, and that none of the TEN Group shall have any right, title or interest in and to the TFMC Specified Marks; and

(ii) following the Separation, the TEN Group shall not: (A) use any of the TFMC Specified Marks; (B) seek to register any TFMC-Formative Marks, (C) challenge any rights of the TFMC Group in any TFMC-Formative Marks or their rights to register the same; (D) challenge the validity or enforceability of any of the TFMC-Formative Marks; or (E) assist any third party in connection with any of the foregoing.

(b) In furtherance of TEN’s obligations in Section 5.7(a) above, as soon as possible following the Separation but not later than 180 days thereafter, the TEN Group shall remove and change signage, change and substitute promotional or advertising material in whatever medium, change stationery and packaging and take all such other steps as may be required or appropriate to cease all use of the TFMC Specified Marks; provided, however, that the TEN Group shall not be in violation of this Section 5.7 by reason of:

(i) the appearance of the TFMC Specified Marks in or on any tools, dies, equipment, engineering/manufacturing drawings, manuals, work sheets, operating procedures, other written materials or other TEN Assets that are used for internal purposes only in connection with the TEN Business; provided that TEN reasonably endeavors to remove such appearances of the TFMC Specified Marks in the ordinary course of the operation of the TEN Business; or

(ii) the appearance of the TFMC Specified Marks in or on any third party’s publications, marketing materials, brochures, instruction sheets, equipment or products that were distributed in the ordinary course of business or pursuant to a Contract prior to the Separation, and that generally are in the public domain, or any other similar uses by any such third party over which none of the TEN Group have control; or

(iii) the use by the TEN Group of the TFMC Specified Marks in a non-trademark manner for purposes of notifying customers or the general public of the Separation.

5.8 Transfer of TEN Securities by TFMC.

(a) Prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the Distribution Date, TFMC shall not, without TEN’s prior written consent, Transfer any TEN Securities.

(b) Prior to the occurrence of a TEN Change of Control, TFMC shall not, without TEN’s prior written consent, Transfer any TEN Securities to any TEN Competitor provided, however, that this clause (b) shall not limit TFMC from selling TEN Securities on Euronext Paris or any other securities exchange on which TEN Securities become listed as long as TFMC does not know that the counterparty to the transaction is a TEN Competitor; provided further, that in respect of any accelerated book build (“ABB”) regarding TEN Securities by TFMC, so long as TFMC has delivered allocation principles to the managers acting on behalf of TFMC in respect of the ABB in accordance with Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 15, 2014 that all orders by TEN Competitors should be refused, TFMC shall be deemed to have complied with this clause (b).

(c) Prior to the occurrence of a TEN Change of Control, TFMC shall not, without TEN’s prior written consent, knowingly Transfer TEN Securities in one or a series of privately-negotiated trades through an ABB, Fully Marketed Offering (as defined below) or off-market sale (i) to a Person who would, upon the completion of such trade, beneficially own 10% or more of the TEN Securities or (ii) that would trigger a mandatory public tender offer in accordance with both (A) the Decree on Public Offers (Besluit openbare biedingen Wft) and (B) the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier); provided, however that in the event of any conflicting provisions, the Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier) shall control.

(d) Prior to the occurrence of a TEN Change of Control, TFMC shall not, without TEN’s prior written consent, sell TEN Securities on Euronext Paris or any other securities exchange on which TEN Securities become listed in excess of 25% of the average daily trading volume of the TEN Securities for the five trading days preceding the day on which such sale occurs (it being understood and agreed that this clause (d) shall not apply to Fully Marketing Offerings or ABBs).

(e) Until TFMC beneficially owns less than 5% of the TEN Securities, TEN will reasonably cooperate with TFMC to optimize any offering which entails TEN’s involvement in the form of a management road show and/or the preparation of a prospectus or similar offering document (a “Fully Marketed Offering”), including by providing reasonable access to information required for a due diligence investigation, comfort letters, road shows and marketing, drafting a prospectus or similar offering document, any reasonable requests from any relevant underwriters or advisers including for management involvement in the marketing of the Fully Marketed Offering or being a party to an underwriting agreement containing customary provisions including indemnification. The Parties agree to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any regulatory, stock exchange, or other approval required for any Transfer of TEN Securities by TFMC. Any fees and external expenses incurred by book runners, TEN and their advisors as reasonably agreed beforehand by TFMC and specifically incurred in connection with the Fully Marketed Offering will be borne by TFMC, it being understood that if such Fully Marketed Offering also includes the sale of primary TEN Securities by TEN at TEN’s request (provided, however, that any such sale of TEN Securities by TEN shall be limited to amounts that will not, in the reasonable opinion of TFMC, interfere with or impede the execution of the Fully Marketed Offering), TFMC and TEN will each pay a share of such fees and external expenses on a pro rata basis.

(f) Until TFMC beneficially owns less than 5% of the TEN Securities, TEN will cooperate with TFMC to optimize any sale of a block of TEN Securities beneficially owned by TFMC, including by providing an opportunity to perform a due diligence investigation by a prospective purchaser. Any fees and external expenses incurred by TEN and its advisors as reasonably agreed beforehand by TFMC and specifically incurred in connection with such a sale of block of TEN Securities beneficially owned by TFMC will be borne by TFMC.

8.13 Specific Performance.

(a) Subject to Article IV, the Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the specific terms hereof or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that prior to the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article VII, 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 (without necessity of posting bond or other security (any requirements therefor being expressly waived)), this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity.

(b) Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief as provided herein on the basis that (i) the other Party has an adequate remedy at Law or (ii) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

8.14 Force Majeure. No Party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement or, unless otherwise provided therein, any Ancillary Agreement for any delay or failure to fulfill any obligation, other than a delay or failure to make a payment, so long as and to the extent to which any delay or failure in the fulfillment of such obligations is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event, (a) provide written notice to the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition; and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practicable.

Exhibit 10.2

SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

THIS SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of January 7, 2021 (the “Execution Date”) by and between TechnipFMC plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“Seller”), and Bpifrance Participations SA, a société anonyme incorporated under the laws of the Republic of France (“Purchaser”). Seller and Purchaser are each referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of that certain Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Separation Agreement”), between Seller and Technip Energies B.V., a Dutch private limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Seller (“TEN”), Seller intends to (a) separate into two separate, publicly traded companies (the “Separation”), one for each of (i) the TFMC Business (as defined in the Separation Agreement), which shall be owned and conducted, directly or indirectly, by Seller and its subsidiaries following the Separation and (ii) the TEN Business (as defined in the Separation Agreement), which shall be owned and conducted, directly or indirectly, by TEN and its subsidiaries following the Separation, and (b) following the Separation, make a distribution, on a pro rata basis and in accordance with a distribution ratio to be determined by the board of directors of Seller in accordance with the Separation Agreement, to holders of the ordinary shares, par value $1.00 per share, of Seller on the Record Date (as defined in the Separation Agreement) of a portion of the outstanding ordinary shares, nominal value €0.01 per share, of TEN (“TEN Shares”) owned by Seller as of such date (the “Distribution” and the date of the Distribution, the “Distribution Date”);

WHEREAS, following consummation of the Distribution, Seller will hold an amount of TEN Shares representing 49.9% of the outstanding TEN Shares;

WHEREAS, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Seller desires to sell to the Purchaser, and Purchaser desires to acquire and purchase from Seller, in connection with the Distribution, TEN Shares (the “Investment”); and

WHEREAS, concurrent with Purchaser entering into this Agreement and making the Investment, as of the date hereof the Parties have entered into that certain Relationship Agreement (the “Relationship Agreement”) with TEN.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Sale of Shares.

1.1 Purchase Price. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Purchaser hereby purchases from Seller, and Seller hereby sells, assigns and transfers to Purchaser, a number of shares (the “Purchased Shares”) equal to (a) $200,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) divided by (b) (i) the volume-weighted average price per share of TEN Shares on the Euronext Paris stock exchange (“Euronext”) over the thirty (30) consecutive trading days beginning on the first trading day after the Distribution Date (the “VWAP Period”), as such volume-weighted average price per share is reported by Euronext (or, if Euronext is not available for any reason, Bloomberg) or, if not reported by such source, is calculated on the last trading day of the VWAP Period with daily volume-weighted average price per share and daily volumes reported at the close of each trading day by Euronext (or, if Euronext is not available for any reason, Bloomberg), calculated to four decimal places multiplied by (ii) 0.94 (the “Price per Share”). Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price to Seller on the later of (x) the Distribution Date and (y) the date on which all the conditions in Section 4 have been satisfied, (for purposes of the Investment, such date, the “Purchase Date”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated at least two (2) business days prior to such date by Seller. For the purposes of determining the number of Purchased Shares pursuant to this Section 1.1, the Price per Share expressed in Euro shall be converted into U.S. dollars by using the exchange rate published on Bloomberg at 5:00 pm (CET), on the last day of the VWAP Period, or in The Wall Street Journal on such date if not so published on Bloomberg. Seller shall transfer to Purchaser the Purchased Shares on the later of (A) the first business day after the WVAP Period and (B) the date on which all the conditions in Section 4 have been satisfied (the “Share Transfer Date”). During the VWAP Period, for the purposes of discussing the calculations required pursuant to this Section 1.1, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate with each other regularly.

1.2 TEN Share Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if:

(a) the number of Purchased Shares at the conclusion of the VWAP Period exceeds 17.25% of the number of TEN Shares outstanding as of the Distribution Date (the “Cap”), then (i) on the Share Transfer Date, Seller shall transfer to Purchaser an aggregate number of TEN Shares equal to the Cap and (ii) Seller shall pay to Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Purchaser, as a reduction of the Purchase Price, on the later of the (A) thirty fifth (35th) trading day after the Distribution Date or (B) Purchase Date, an amount equal to (1) the difference between the number of TEN Shares that Seller would have delivered to Purchaser but for the Cap and the number of TEN Shares Seller actually delivered to Purchaser, multiplied by (2) the Price per Share (the “Price Reduction”); provided that, if the Purchase Price has not been paid by Purchaser to Seller at the Distribution Date, then the amount of the Purchase Price to be paid by Purchaser on the Purchase Date shall be reduced by the amount of the Price Reduction; or

(b) at the end of the VWAP Period the number of Purchased Shares due from Seller to Purchaser is less than 11.82% of the number of TEN Shares outstanding as of the Distribution Date, then (y) Purchaser may, upon written notice to Seller delivered no later than the first business day after the end of the VWAP Period, terminate this Agreement and (z) Seller shall refund to Purchaser on the thirty fifth (35th) trading day after the Distribution Date an amount equal to the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Purchaser at least two (2) business days prior to such date, provided that the Purchase Price has been previously paid by Purchaser to Seller.
