8.1 Litigation Support . If any Party is evaluating, pursuing, contesting or defending against any Proceeding in connection with (a) any Transaction or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving Company or the Business, then upon the request of such Party each other Party will cooperate with the requesting Party and its counsel in the evaluation, pursuit, contest or defense, make available its personnel, and provide such testimony and access to its books and records as may be necessary in connection therewith. The requesting Party will reimburse each other Party for its out-of-pocket expenses related to such cooperation (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 9.1 without regard to Section 9.4).

8.2 Transition . Seller, Buyer and Parent will not take any action that is designed or intended to have the effect of discouraging any lessor, lessee, employee, Governmental Body, licensor, licensee, customer, supplier or other business associate of Company from maintaining the same relationships with Company after the Closing as the Company maintained prior to the Closing. Seller will refer all inquiries relating to the Business to Buyer and Company from and after the Closing. In the event of a breach of the antepenultimate sentence of Section 4.14(i) during the one year following the Closing that would require the distribution or disclosure to third parties of the Software in source code form pursuant to an Open Source license, Seller shall reimburse the Buyer, Parent or Company for its reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in revising or amending the Software to prevent such distribution or disclosure, up to an aggregate of Euro 100.000.00.

8.3 Confidentiality . Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates and Representatives to, maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information at all times, and will not, directly or indirectly, use any Confidential Information for its own benefit or for the benefit of any other Person or reveal or disclose any Confidential Information to any Person other than authorized Representatives of Buyer and Company, except in connection with this Agreement or with the prior written consent of Buyer. The covenants in this Section 8.3 will not apply to Confidential Information that (a) is or becomes available to the general public through no breach of this Agreement by Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives or, to the Knowledge of Seller, breach by any other Person of a duty of confidentiality to Buyer or (b) Seller is required to disclose by applicable Law; provided , however , that Seller will notify Buyer in writing of such required disclosure as much in advance as practicable in the circumstances and cooperate with Buyer to

47

limit the scope of such disclosure. At any time that Buyer may request, Seller will, and will cause its Affiliates and Representatives to, turn over or return to Buyer all Confidential Information in any form (including all copies and reproductions thereof) in its possession or control.

8.4 Employment Matters; Non-competition Agreements .

(a) At or after the Closing, Parent shall provide to each of the Employees of Seller, a letter of employment reasonably acceptable to Parent, provided that Seller’s management shall have used its reasonable best efforts to assist Parent to retain those individuals up to the Closing.

(b) Parent shall not dismiss (and shall cause Buyer and Company to not dismiss) any of the Key Employees who are retained by Parent, Buyer or Company, for a period of three (3) years following the Closing other than for just cause, as such is defined in the respective employment agreements between such Key Employees and Buyer. Parent will consider implementing an equity incentive program for the Employees. Compensation (including base compensation, bonus/incentive compensation and benefits) for the Employees shall be no less favorable than (i) Company’s employees’ current compensation or (ii) similarly situated employees of Parent. The Employees shall receive seniority credit for purposes of compensation and participation in Parent’s incentive program and benefit plans.

(c) Seller agrees that for a period of three (3) years from the Closing, neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives will (i) hire any of the Key Employees retained by Buyer or (ii) solicit or induce any employee, commissioned salesperson or consultant of Buyer or Company to terminate his or her employment or contractual relationship with Buyer or Company or make any offer of employment or engagement to such person; provided, however, that the foregoing (ii) shall not prohibit Seller or any Affiliate thereof from making general solicitations for employment to the public that are not specifically targeted at such employees, commissioned salespersons or consultants (in which case Seller shall promptly notify Buyer) or from hiring any such individual who voluntarily and without solicitation from Seller or any Affiliate thereof (other than a permitted general solicitation and subject to notification from Seller to Buyer as described above) contacts Seller or any Affiliate thereof in order to obtain employment or other contractual engagement. Seller acknowledges and represents that the covenants and agreements in this section are reasonable and necessary for the protection of Buyer and are an essential inducement to Buyer to enter into the Transaction.

(d) Parent agrees that for a period of three (3) years from the Closing, neither it nor any of its Affiliates or Representatives will hire, solicit or induce any employee, commissioned salesperson or consultant of Seller to terminate his or her employment or contractual relationship with Seller or make any offer of employment or engagement to such person; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Parent or any Affiliate thereof from making general solicitations for employment to the public that are not specifically targeted at such employees, commissioned salespersons or consultants or from hiring any such individual who voluntarily and without solicitation from Parent or any Affiliate thereof (other than a permitted general solicitation as described above) contacts Parent or any Affiliate thereof in order to obtain employment or other contractual engagement. Parent acknowledges and represents that the covenants and agreements in this section are reasonable and necessary for the protection of Seller and are an essential inducement to Seller to enter into the Transaction.

48

(e) Seller and Parent each hereby agrees that the covenants in this Agreement are reasonable given the real and potential competition encountered (and reasonably expected to be encountered) by Parent and the substantial knowledge and goodwill Seller has acquired with respect to the Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that at the time of enforcement of any provision of this Section 8.4 a court or other tribunal will hold that the restrictions in this Section 8.4 are unreasonable or unenforceable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area.

(f) The Parties agree that in the event of any breach by a Party of any of the provisions of this Section 8.4, money damages would be inadequate and the non-breaching Party would have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including Article IX), the Parties agree that non-breaching Party will have the right, in addition to any other rights and the obligations under this Section 8.4, to seek an adequate remedy for such, not only by an action for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunction and/or other equitable relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations (whether anticipatory, continuing or future) of the provisions of this Section 8.4.

8.7 Forfeiture of Escrowed Stock . SELLER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT A MATERIAL BREACH BY SELLER OF SECTIONS 8.3 OR SECTION 8.4(c) OF THIS ARTICLE VIII WILL RESULT IN THE FORFEITURE BY SELLER OF ANY ESCROWED STOCK THEN REMAINING (AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9.8), AND RELEASES ANY CLAIM AGAINST BUYER AND COMPANY OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES FOR ANY FORFEITED ESCROWED STOCK.

8.8 Use of Name . Seller will cease to use and will not grant any license to use any name containing any combination of the terms “TELELAP ALF-X”, “ALF-X”, or any name, slogan, logo or trademark that is similar to any of the trademarks acquired by Buyer pursuant hereto and will take such actions as Buyer may reasonably request to enable Buyer and its Affiliates to use such name, slogan, logo or trademark. Buyer may refer to the Business as formerly being Seller’s.

If the Closing occurs, Seller will have no Liability with respect to any claim for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, or any covenant or agreement in this Agreement to be performed and complied with prior to the Closing Date, unless Buyer notifies Seller of such a claim in writing on or before September 21, 2017; provided , however , that (a) any claim relating to Section 4.20 (employee benefits) may be made at any time until September 21, 2020 (b) any claim relating to Section 4.15 or Section 5.9, as applicable (taxes) may be made at any time until the date 90 days after the expiration of the statute or period of limitations (including any extension of such statute or period

50

If the Closing occurs, neither Parent nor Buyer will have any Liability with respect to any claim for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty in this Agreement or any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement, or any covenant or agreement in this Agreement to be performed and complied with prior to the Closing Date, unless Seller notifies Buyer of such a claim in writing on or before September 21, 2017; provided , however , that any claim relating to fraud or any covenant or agreement to be performed or complied with at or after the Closing may be made at any time (subject to the applicable statute of limitations). If Buyer or Seller, as applicable, provides proper notice of a claim within the applicable time period set forth above, liability for such claim will continue until such claim is resolved.

9.4 Limitations on Indemnification .

(a) Buyer and Parent will have no Liability with respect to the matters described in Section 9.2:

(i) unless with respect to any claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) for indemnification under such Section, such claim (or series of related claims) involves Losses in excess of €50.000 (the “ Claim Threshold ” and any claim that exceeds the Claim Threshold, an “ Indemnifiable Claim ”); and

(ii) unless and until the total of all Losses associated with Indemnifiable Claims under such Section exceeds €50.000 (the “ Basket ”), at which point Buyer will be obligated to indemnify for Losses associated with Indemnifiable Claims in an amount in excess of the Basket.

(b) Buyer’s and Parent’s maximum aggregate Liability with respect to the matters described in Section 9.2 will be limited to an amount equal to $4,074,607.68 (the “ Buyer’s Cap ”); provided , however , that any claim relating to fraud, willful misconduct, willful misrepresentation or fraudulent or intentional breach of any representation or warranty, or failure to pay the Purchase Price when due, will not be subject to Buyer’s Cap.

(c) Seller will have no Liability with respect to the matters described in Section 9.1:

(i) unless with respect to any claim (or series of related claims arising from the same underlying facts, events or circumstances) for indemnification under such Section, such claim (or series of related claims) involves Losses in excess of the Claim Threshold; and

(ii) unless and until the total of all Losses associated with Indemnifiable Claims under such Section exceeds the Basket, at which point Seller will be obligated to indemnify for Losses associated with Indemnifiable Claims in an amount in excess of the Basket.

(d) Seller’s maximum aggregate Liability with respect to the matters described in Section 9.1 will be limited to the Escrowed Stock (the “ Seller’s Cap ”; and, together with Buyer’s

51

Cap, the “ Cap ”); provided , however , that any claim relating to fraud, willful misconduct, willful misrepresentation or fraudulent or intentional breach of any representation or warranty will not be subject to Seller’s Cap ; provided, further, that Seller’s maximum aggregate Liability shall be limited to the amount of the Purchase Price actually paid to Seller hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer Indemnitees’ sole and exclusive source of recovery on account of Indemnifiable Claims hereunder shall be the shares of Escrowed Stock (irrespective of the value of such Escrowed Stock at any given time) and, in the event of an Indemnifiable Claim hereunder, the Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to a release of such number of shares of Escrowed Stock as is equal to the amount of Losses associated with such Indemnifiable Claim; provided, however, that if the amount of such Losses exceeds the value of the shares of Escrowed Stock then held by the Escrow Agent, the Buyer Indemnitee shall be entitled to a release of all remaining shares of Escrowed Stock. In the event a Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to a release of Escrowed Stock on account of an Indemnifiable Claim made before September 21, 2017, and the Escrow Agent receives Joint Instructions, an Arbitration Award or a Court Order (each as defined in the Escrow Agreement) in connection with such Indemnifiable Claim, the Escrow Agent shall exercise its rights under the Stock Power (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) delivered to the Escrow Agent at the Closing and release to such Buyer Indemnitee in accordance with the Escrow Agreement such number of shares of Escrowed Stock as is equal in value, as of the date of the Escrow Agent’s receipt of such Joint Instructions, Arbitration Award or Court Order, to the amount of Loss set forth in such Joint Instructions, Arbitration Award or Court Order.

(e) The amount of any Losses incurred by a Party shall be reduced by the net amount such Party or any Affiliate thereof actually recovers from any insurer or other party liable for such Losses, less the net present value of any future increase in premiums, if such increase is a direct result of such Loss, payable by such Party and less the costs of recovering such amounts, and such Party shall use its best efforts to effect any such recovery. The amount of any Losses incurred by a Party shall be reduced by the Tax benefits realized by such Party resulting from or arising out of such Losses. Each Party shall use its best efforts to mitigate its Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses.

9.5 Claims Against Company . Following the Closing, Seller may not assert, directly or indirectly, and hereby waives, any claim, whether for indemnification, contribution, subrogation or otherwise, against Company with respect to any act, omission, condition or event occurring or existing prior to or on the Closing Date or any obligation of Seller under Section 9.1. Seller agrees not to make, directly or indirectly, and hereby waives, any claim for indemnification against Company by reason of the fact that Seller was a member, director, officer, employee or agent of Company or was serving at the request of Company as a partner, trustee, director, officer, employee or agent of another entity (whether such claim is for judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, amounts paid in settlement, Losses, expenses or otherwise and whether such claim is pursuant to any Law, Organizational Document, Contract or otherwise) with respect to any Proceeding brought by Buyer or Company against Seller or any Affiliate thereof (whether such Proceeding is pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise).

9.6 Exception to Indemnification Obligation . Following the Closing, no Buyer Indemnitee or Seller Indemnitee may assert any claim for indemnification. Parent, Buyer and Company (on behalf of the Buyer Indemnitees) and Seller (on behalf of the Seller Indemnitees) irrevocably waive all rights to indemnification hereunder, for breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty if such claim relates to facts or circumstances disclosed during or in connection with Due Diligence One or Due Diligence Two, as applicable.

52

9.7 Third-Party Claims .

(a) If a third party commences or threatens a Proceeding (a “ Third-Party Claim ”) against any Person (the “ Indemnified Party ”) with respect to any matter that the Indemnified Party might make a claim for indemnification against any Party (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) under this Article IX, then the Indemnified Party must notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing of the existence of such Third-Party Claim within thirty (30) days and must deliver copies of any documents served on the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim.

(b) Upon receipt of the notice described in Section 9.7(a), the Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Indemnified Party against the Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party so long as (i) within ten days after receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing that the Indemnifying Party will, subject to the limitations of Section 9.4, indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any Losses the Indemnified Party may incur relating to or arising out of the Third-Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Party provides the Indemnified Party with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party will have the financial resources to defend against the Third-Party Claim and fulfill its indemnification obligations hereunder, (iii) the Indemnifying Party is not a party to the Proceeding or the Indemnified Party has determined in good faith that there would be no conflict of interest or other inappropriate matter associated with joint representation, (iv) the Third-Party Claim does not involve, and is not likely to involve, any claim by any Governmental Body, (v) the Third-Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (vi) the Indemnifying Party conducts the defense of the Third-Party Claim actively and diligently and (vii) the Indemnifying Party keeps the Indemnified Party apprised of all material developments, including settlement offers, with respect to the Third-Party Claim and permits the Indemnified Party to participate in the defense of the Third-Party Claim.

(c) So long as the Indemnifying Party is conducting the defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 9.7(b), (i) the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for any attorneys’ fees incurred by the Indemnified Party regarding the Third-Party Claim (other than attorneys’ fees incurred prior to the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of the defense pursuant to Section 9.7(b)) and (ii) neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld unreasonably. If the Indemnified Party desires to consent to the entry of judgment with respect to or settle a Third-Party Claim but the Indemnifying Party refuses, then the Indemnifying Party will be responsible for all Losses with respect to such Third-Party Claim, without giving effect to the Basket or the Cap.

(d) If any condition in Section 9.7(b) is or becomes unsatisfied, (i) the Indemnified Party may defend against, and consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to, the Third-Party Claim in any manner it may deem appropriate (and the Indemnified Party need not consult with, or obtain any consent from, the Indemnifying Party in

53

connection therewith), (ii) the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party promptly and periodically (but no less often than monthly) for the costs of defending against the Third-Party Claim, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will remain responsible for any Losses the Indemnified Party may incur relating to or arising out of the Third-Party Claim to the fullest extent provided in this Article IX.

9.8 Other Indemnification Matters . Any claim for indemnification under this Article IX must be asserted by providing written notice to Seller (or Buyer, in the case of a claim by Seller) specifying the factual basis of the claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the Person asserting the claim. The right to indemnification will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any Knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the date hereof, with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. THE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS IN THIS ARTICLE IX WILL APPLY AND BE ENFORCEABLE EVEN IF ANY PERSON ALLEGES OR PROVES THE SOLE, CONCURRENT, CONTRIBUTORY OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF THE PERSON WHO IS SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION (OR OF ITS AFFILIATES), OR THE SOLE OR CONCURRENT STRICT LIABILITY IMPOSED ON THE PERSON WHO IS SEEKING INDEMNIFICATION (OR ON ITS AFFILIATES) . The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement, will not affect the right to indemnification, payment of damages, or other remedy based on any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement.

9.9 Exclusive Remedy . After the Closing, this Article IX will provide the exclusive legal remedy for the matters covered by this Article IX, except for claims based upon fraud, willful misconduct or willful misrepresentation or as contemplated in Section 9.5. This Article IX will not affect any remedy any Party may have under this Agreement prior to the Closing or upon termination of this Agreement or any equitable remedy available to any Party.

11.7 Resolution of Disputes .

(a) All claims, disputes, controversies and alleged breaches arising out of or related to this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the performance or nonperformance hereof or thereof which cannot be settled through negotiation, including but not limited to any

56

claim, dispute or controversy relating to the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Transaction Document or the breach thereof (each, a “ Dispute ”), shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with rules of arbitration of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ Arbitration Rules ”) and the provisions of this subsection:

(i) The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three impartial arbitrators selected in accordance with such Arbitration Rules, unless either the amount in controversy is less than €250.000 or the parties shall hereafter mutually agree in writing to have the arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator, in either which case the arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. The final decision and award by the arbitrator(s) shall be set forth in a written decision.

(ii) The arbitration shall be conducted in Geneva, Switzerland and shall be conducted in the English language, unless the Parties mutually agree at the time for some other situs for the conduct of the arbitration proceeding.

(iii) In conducting the arbitration and rendering their award, the arbitrators shall give effect to the terms of this Agreement and the other applicable Transaction Documents, shall give effect to any other agreement of the parties relating to the conduct of the arbitration, and shall give effect to applicable statutes of limitations. If any dispute submitted to arbitration shall involve claims by or against a party hereto against or by a third party, and such third party cannot be made a party to such arbitration, the arbitrators shall be empowered to take such actions as they deem just and equitable in order to avoid prejudice to the parties hereto by reason of the inability of the arbitrators to adjudicate such third party claims, including without limitation, if they so determine, conditioning their award upon the outcome of the third party claims or staying the arbitration pending the outcome of the third party claims. The arbitrators shall be empowered to order the Parties to provide pre-hearing discovery to each other upon such terms as the arbitrators may direct if one of both of the Parties requests discovery, the Parties fail to agree between themselves as to the conduct of discovery, and the arbitrators determine that such discovery will be consistent with the overriding goals of a fair and efficient process and a just and equitable award.

(iv) The costs of the arbitration, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrators, shall be allocated to such parties as, and in such proportions as, the arbitrators shall determine to be just and equitable, which determination shall be set forth in the award.

(v) Judgment upon the award of the arbitrators may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Nothing in this Section shall preclude either Party from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtaining if warranted, preliminary or ancillary relief pending the conduct of such alternative dispute resolution procedures and arbitration, or an order to compel the arbitration provided for herein, or such other relief as may be required to protect and preserve such Party’s rights pending the conduct of such procedures and arbitration. This Section 11.7 provides the exclusive method of resolving any Dispute, provided that, notwithstanding any provision of

57

this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Section 11.7 or in any other provision of this Agreement shall preclude any Party from seeking injunctive relief against the violation or breach of any provision in this Agreement as set forth in Section 11.13.

11.8 Governing Law . This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents (unless otherwise stated therein) will be governed by the laws of the Republic of Italy without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law principles of any jurisdiction.

11.9 Amendments and Waivers . No amendment of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless the amendment is in writing and signed by Buyer and Seller. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be valid unless the waiver is in writing and signed by the waiving Party. The failure of a Party at any time to require performance of any provision of this Agreement will not affect such Party’s rights at a later time to enforce such provision. No waiver by any Party of any breach of this Agreement will be deemed to extend to any other breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any other breach.

11.10 Severability . Any provision of this Agreement that is determined by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof or the invalid or unenforceable provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. Any provision of this Agreement held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

Seller will bear all expenses incurred by Seller or any of its Representatives in connection with the Transaction contemplated to be performed before or on the Closing Date. Buyer will bear all expenses incurred by Buyer or any of its Representatives in connection with the Transaction contemplated to be performed on or before the Closing Date. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the obligation of each Party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights of such Party arising from a breach of this Agreement by another Party.

Any reference in this Agreement to any Schedule or Exhibit refers to the corresponding Schedule or Exhibit attached to this Agreement and all such Schedules and Exhibits are incorporated herein by reference. The word “including” in this Agreement means “including without limitation.” This Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision in this Agreement. Unless the context requires otherwise, any reference to any Law will be deemed also to refer to all amendments and successor provisions thereto and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case as in effect as of the date hereof and the Closing Date.

In interpreting and enforcing this Agreement, each representation and warranty will be given independent significance of fact and will not be deemed superseded or modified by any other such representation or warranty.

11.13 Specific Performance . Each Party acknowledges that the other Parties would be damaged irreparably and would have no adequate remedy of law if any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Parties will be entitled to an injunction to prevent any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to enforce specifically any provision of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, subject to Section 9.9, and without having to prove the inadequacy of any other remedy they may have at law or in equity and without being required to post bond or other security.

11.14 Time Is of the Essence . Time is of the essence with respect to all time periods and dates set forth herein.

11.15. Guarantee

(a) Parent hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the due and punctual payment by the Buyer of all monetary obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, and the due and prompt performance of all covenants, agreements, obligations and liabilities of the Buyer under or in respect of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. This guaranty is an irrevocable guaranty of payment (and not just of collection) and shall continue in effect notwithstanding any extension or modification of the terms of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, any assumption of any such guaranteed obligation by any other party or any other act or event that might otherwise operate as legal or equitable discharge of Parent under this Section 11.15. Parent agrees that it shall pay on demand all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Seller in connection with enforcing this Section 11.15, which amounts shall be in addition to all other obligations hereunder. There are no conditions precedent to the enforcement of this Section 11.15.

(b) The obligations of Parent hereunder shall not be affected by or contingent upon (i) the liquidation or dissolution of, or the merger or consolidation of the Buyer with or into any corporation or any sale or transfer by the Buyer of all or any part of its property or assets, (ii) the bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceedings involving or affecting the Buyer, (iii) any modification, alteration, amendment or addition of or to this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or (iv) any disability or any other defense of the Buyer or any other Person and any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of Parent) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Parent or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or a guarantor or otherwise. In connection with the foregoing, Parent waives all defenses and discharges it may have or otherwise be entitled to as a guarantor or surety and further waives presentment for payment or performance, notice of nonpayment or nonperformance, demand, diligence or protest; provided, however, Parent shall have available to it all defenses that the Buyer would have in the event of an action by the Seller

59

against the Buyer to enforce this Agreement or any Transaction Document, other than any defenses arising from bankruptcy, receivership, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceedings involving or affecting the Buyer. This guarantee shall automatically expire immediately following the Closing and receipt of the Purchase Price by the Seller, without any action by or notice to any party.

(c) All dealings between Parent and the Buyer, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Section 11.15. Parent acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated hereby and that the waivers and agreements by Parent set forth in this Section 11.15 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.
