If the Closing Statement is not delivered to Avaya within 90 days after the Closing Date, then Avaya will have the right to elect that Avaya’s estimates from the Estimate Report will constitute the amounts for the Adjusted Closing Date Payment and will be final, conclusive and binding upon, and non-appealable by, the parties hereto.

(b) Objections; Resolution of Disputes .

(i) Unless Avaya notifies Purchaser in writing, within 45 days (such 45-day period, the “ Objection Period ”) after the earlier of (A) Purchaser’s delivery of the Closing Statement and (B) the expiration of the 90 day period contemplated by Section 2.03(a) , of any objection to the computation of the Adjustment Amount set forth therein (or, if the Closing Statement was not delivered in accordance with Section 2.03(a) , any objection to computation of the Adjustment Amount set forth in the Estimate Report) (a “ Notice of Objection ”), the Closing Statement (or the Estimate Report, as applicable) shall become final and binding. During the Objection Period and for purposes of Avaya’s review of the Closing Statement, if any, and preparation of any Notice of Objection, Purchaser shall permit Avaya and its Representatives to

12

review the working papers of Purchaser and its accountants relating to the Closing Statement (subject to Section 5.02(a) ) and, at Avaya’s request, shall provide Avaya and its Representatives (Y) any information relating to the Business reasonably requested and (Z) reasonable access during normal business hours to the personnel, properties, books and records of and relating to the Business. Any Notice of Objection shall specify the basis for the objections set forth therein in reasonable detail.

(ii) If Avaya provides the Notice of Objection to Purchaser within the Objection Period, Purchaser and Avaya shall, during the 30-day period following Purchaser’s receipt of the Notice of Objection (such 30-day period, the “ Resolution Period ”), attempt in good faith to resolve Avaya’s objections. During the Resolution Period, Purchaser and its Representatives shall be permitted to review the working papers of Avaya and its accountants relating to the Notice of Objection and the basis therefor (subject to Section 5.02(a) ) and, at Purchaser’s request, shall provide Purchaser and its Representatives (Y) any information relating to the Business reasonably requested and (Z) reasonable access during normal business hours to the personnel, properties, books and records of and relating to the Business. If Purchaser and Avaya are unable to resolve all such objections within the Resolution Period (or such longer period as they may mutually agree), the matters remaining in dispute shall be submitted to AlixPartners (or, if such firm declines or is unable to act, to another nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Purchaser and Avaya (such agreed firm being the “ Independent Expert ”)). The Independent Expert shall be engaged within 20 days following expiration of the Resolution Period pursuant to an engagement letter, in customary form, among Purchaser, Avaya and the Independent Expert. The Independent Expert shall be instructed, pursuant to such engagement letter, to resolve only those matters set forth in the Notice of Objection remaining in dispute based solely on the written submissions of the parties and not to otherwise investigate any matter independently. Purchaser and Avaya each agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the Independent Expert access to such individuals and such information, books and records as may be reasonably required by the Independent Expert to make its final determination. Purchaser and Avaya shall also instruct the Independent Expert to render its final written decision as promptly as practicable but in no event later than 30 days from the date that information related to the unresolved objections was first presented to the Independent Expert by Purchaser and Avaya. With respect to each disputed line item, such decision shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Purchaser in the Closing Statement (or, if the Closing Statement was not delivered in accordance with Section 2.03(a) , in the Estimate Report) or Avaya with respect to such disputed line item. The resolution of disputed items by the Independent Expert shall be final and binding on the parties, and the determination of the Independent Expert shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction thereover. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses in connection with the resolution of such disputed items by the Independent Expert, and the fees and expenses of the Independent Expert incurred pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Avaya, on the other hand, as determined by the Independent Expert based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Expert’s determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of the disputed items. For purposes of illustration only, if the disputed items are $100 and if the final written determination of the Independent Expert states that $80 of the disputed items are resolved in Purchaser’s favor and $20 of the disputed items are resolved in Avaya’s favor, Purchaser would bear twenty percent (20%) of the Independent Expert’s fees and expenses, on the one hand, and Avaya would bear eighty percent (80%) of such fees and expenses, on the other hand.

13

(c) Adjustment Payment . When used hereunder, the “ Adjusted Closing Date Payment ” means an aggregate amount equal to (i) the Purchase Price, plus or minus (as applicable), (ii) the Adjustment Amount, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.03(b) . Within five (5) Business Days after the Adjustment Amount has been finally determined in accordance with Section 2.03(b) , (A) if the Closing Date Payment is less than the Adjusted Closing Date Payment, Purchaser shall pay to Avaya, or one or more of its subsidiaries as designated by Avaya, the entire amount of such shortfall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated in writing by Avaya to Purchaser and (B) if the Closing Date Payment is greater than the Adjusted Closing Date Payment, Avaya shall pay to Purchaser the entire amount of such excess, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser to Avaya. Any required payment made pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) will be deemed to be an adjustment to the Purchase Price for all applicable Tax purposes unless and to the extent a final determination of a Taxing Authority requires otherwise.

Section 2.04 Deferred Closing .

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the conveyance, assignment, transfer, delivery and acceptance of the Transferred Assets (the “ Deferred Assets ”) located in certain jurisdictions located outside the United States (such jurisdictions, as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties after the date of this Agreement, the “ Deferred Closing Countries ”), and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities (the “ Deferred Liabilities ”) relating to the Business conducted in the Deferred Closing Countries or relating to such Deferred Assets may but shall not be required to occur on the Closing Date.

(b) The conveyance, assignment, transfer, delivery and acceptance of the Deferred Assets, and the assumption of the Deferred Liabilities with respect to a Deferred Closing Country shall, if reasonably practicable, take place at the Closing or otherwise as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter (but in any event on a date not more than six (6) months after the Closing Date) that is a calendar month-end for the relevant Seller(s), or such other date as Avaya and Purchaser may mutually agree in writing (each such closing, a “ Deferred Closing ”) to be held at such place as Avaya and Purchaser may agree in writing (each day on which a Deferred Closing takes place, being a “ Deferred Closing Date ”). From and after the Closing, and until the applicable Deferred Closing Date, the Business conducted in the Deferred Closing Countries shall be held for Purchaser’s benefit and account and shall be managed and operated by the applicable Seller for Purchaser’s benefit and account, with all gains, income, losses, Liabilities, Taxes or other items generated thereby to be for Purchaser’s account and borne by Purchaser, in each case, as if the transfer of the Deferred Assets and Deferred Liabilities had occurred at the Closing in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Subject to Section 5.04 , at each Deferred Closing, Avaya and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective subsidiaries to, execute and deliver a short-form acquisition agreement (the “ Foreign Acquisition Agreements ”) in such form as may be necessary to satisfy the requirements of applicable local Law and as may otherwise be reasonably agreed upon by Avaya and Purchaser, including regarding employees and employee benefit matters in order to

14

adapt such agreement to the particular circumstances of the relevant entity, asset or Liability and country and such other documents and instruments as may be reasonably necessary to transfer the Deferred Assets and Deferred Liabilities in such Deferred Closing Country; provided in each case that the Foreign Acquisition Agreements and such other documents and instruments shall serve purely to effect and make enforceable vis-à-vis third parties the transfer of the legal and beneficial title to the applicable Deferred Asset or Deferred Liability and shall not require Avaya or any of its subsidiaries to make any additional representations, warranties or covenants, express or implied, not contained in this Agreement.

(d) The parties acknowledge that the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to any Deferred Closing Country as agreed to by the parties (each a “ Deferred Closing Country Amount ”) shall have been paid on the Closing Date. In the event that a local payment of some or all of the relevant Deferred Closing Country Amount is required in a particular jurisdiction, on the Deferred Closing Date for a Deferred Closing Country, Purchaser shall cause the applicable designee of Purchaser to pay an amount equal to the required local payment to the applicable Seller on the Deferred Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the applicable Seller’s local bank account to be designated by Avaya in a written notice to Purchaser at least five (5) Business Days before such Deferred Closing. Within five (5) Business Days following the Deferred Closing Date, Avaya shall reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, to Purchaser an amount equal to the relevant required local payment converted to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate published by the Wall Street Journal, United States Edition, on the applicable Deferred Closing Date (or if the Wall Street Journal is not published on such date, the first date thereafter on which the Wall Street Journal is published), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account to be designated by Purchaser in a written notice to Avaya at least five (5) Business Days before such Deferred Closing.

Section 2.05 Withholding . Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any Taxes it is required to deduct and withhold pursuant to the Code or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax law with respect to any payment hereunder. Any amounts so withheld and remitted to the appropriate Taxing Authority shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be treated as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such withholding was made; provided that, if Purchaser intends to deduct or withhold any such amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, Purchaser shall notify Avaya in writing of Purchaser’s intention to deduct and withhold such amounts and the reason therefore as soon as reasonably practicable prior to the date such payment is to be made, and the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts and cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such withholding obligation (including by obtaining any applicable treaty relief); provided further that, if Purchaser does deduct and withhold any such amounts, Purchaser shall, as soon as practicable after any payment of any such amounts to the relevant Taxing Authority, deliver to Avaya the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant Taxing Authority evidencing such payment and any withholding tax certificates or forms in respect of such amounts and any other form or other information that could aid in the recovery of any such amounts in a form reasonably satisfactory to Avaya.

(c) Purchaser shall not acquire any significant assets, business or company, enter into any other transaction or commit or enter into any Contract to effect any such transaction (whether by merger or otherwise), that would reasonably be expected to prevent, materially delay or materially impede the satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01(a) , Section 7.01(b) or Section 7.02(h) .

Section 5.05 Non-Compete; Non-Solicit .

39

(b) During the Restricted Period, Avaya shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries not to, solicit to hire any Transferred Employee; provided , however , that Avaya and its subsidiaries (i) shall be free to conduct general, non-directed solicitation advertisements or web postings for employment or utilizing an independent employment search firm, in each case, which does not target employees of Purchaser and its affiliates, (ii) may hire persons who respond on their own initiative to such advertising, postings or contacts from search firms, and (iii) may solicit to hire, and hire, any Transferred Employee (A) whose employment was terminated by Purchaser or any of its affiliates or (B) whose employment was otherwise terminated and such individual has not been employed by Purchaser or any of its subsidiaries for at least 120 days.

(c) Avaya acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in Section 5.05 constitute a material inducement to Purchaser’s entering into and performing this Agreement. Avaya further acknowledges, stipulates and agrees that a breach of such obligation could result in irreparable harm and continuing damage to Purchaser for which there may be no adequate remedy at Law and further agrees that in the event of any breach of said obligation, Purchaser may be entitled to injunctive relief and to such other relief as is proper under the circumstances.

(d) If any provision contained in this Section 5.05 shall for any reason be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this Section 5.05 , but this Section 5.05 shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. It is the intention of the Parties that if any of the restrictions or covenants contained herein is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed 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 5.05 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained herein) as shall be valid and enforceable under such applicable Law.

Upon Avaya’s request, Purchaser shall promptly execute all assignment, transfer and other documents, and take all steps, in each case, that are necessary or desirable to confirm, effectuate or otherwise evidence Avaya’s and its subsidiaries’ rights, title and interests in and to, and control over, the Retained Names and Marks, including the Internet domain names incorporating any Retained Names and Marks.

(c) Purchaser shall not be deemed to have violated this Section 5.07 , even after the expiration of the time periods set forth in Section 5.07(b) , by reason of: (i) the appearance of the Retained Names and Marks on any equipment, tools, and other written or electronic data, materials or assets that are used for only internal purposes and only in connection with the

41

Business; or (ii) the use of any Retained Name and Mark in a non-trademark manner in textual sentences that is factually accurate and non-prominent and solely for purposes of conveying to customers or the general public that the Business is no longer affiliated with Sellers, and/or to reference historical details concerning or make historical reference to the Business.

(d) Except as expressly provided in this Section 5.07 , no other right to use the Retained Names and Marks is granted by Avaya or any of its affiliates to Purchaser, its affiliates or, after the Closing, the Business, whether by implication or otherwise, and nothing hereunder permits Purchaser, its affiliates or, after the Closing, the Business: (i) to use the Retained Names and Marks in any manner, other than in connection with the Existing Stock and Existing Inventory as set forth in this Section 5.07 , or (ii) to register or seek to register, or to permit any third party to register or to seek to register, any of the Retained Names and Marks in any jurisdiction. Purchaser shall ensure that all use of the Retained Names and Marks by the Business, after the Closing, as provided in this Section 5.07 , shall be only with respect to goods and services of a level of quality equal to or greater than the quality of goods and services with respect to which the Business used the Retained Names and Marks immediately prior to the Closing. Any and all goodwill generated by the use of the Retained Names and Marks under this Section 5.07 shall inure solely to the benefit of Avaya and its affiliates. In any event, and, without limiting any of Purchaser’s obligations under this Section 5.07 , Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its affiliates and, after the Closing, the Business not to, use the Retained Names and Marks in any manner that may damage or tarnish the reputation of Avaya or its affiliates or the goodwill associated with the Retained Names and Marks. Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its affiliates and, after the Closing, the Business not to use or adopt any name confusingly similar to the Retained Names and Marks.

(e) After the Closing, each Seller and each of its affiliates shall cease any and all use of trademarks, service marks, logos, trade dress, trade names, corporate names, or other indicia of source included in the Transferred Intellectual Property. Each Seller and each of its affiliates shall not be deemed to have violated this Section 5.07(e) by reason of the use of any trademarks, service marks, trade names or corporate names included in the Transferred Intellectual Property in a non-trademark manner in textual sentences, which use is factually accurate and non-prominent and solely for purposes of conveying to customers or the general public that each Seller and each of its affiliates are no longer operating the Business and/or to reference historical details concerning the Business.

(f) Subject to the terms and obligations of this Agreement, Purchaser agrees that none of Avaya or its subsidiaries shall have any responsibility for claims by third parties arising out of, or relating to, the use by the Business of any Retained Names and Marks after the Closing. In addition to any and all other remedies available to Avaya and its affiliates, Purchaser shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnitees from and against any and all such third party claims that may arise out of the use of the Retained Names and Marks by the Purchaser or any of its affiliates in violation of or outside the scope permitted by this Section 5.07 , other than such claims that the Retained Names and Marks infringe the Intellectual Property rights of any third party. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Section 5.07 , Avaya, in addition to any other remedies available to them, (A) shall be entitled to a preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order or other equivalent relief restraining Purchaser and any of its affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Business) from any such breach or threatened breach and (B) shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction, order or other relief.

Section 5.08 Avaya Guarantees . Purchaser acknowledges that in the course of conduct of the Business, Avaya and its affiliates may have entered into various arrangements (a) in which guarantees, letters of credit, sureties, bonds or similar arrangements were issued by Avaya or its affiliates and (b) in which Avaya or its affiliates are the primary obligors on other Contracts, in any such case to support or facilitate the Business. The arrangements entered into by Avaya and its affiliates referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), solely to the extent relating to any Transferred Assets or Assumed Liabilities and including those which are set forth in Section 5.08 of the Disclosure Schedule, are referred to as the “ Seller Credit Support Obligations ”. It is understood that the Seller Credit Support Obligations are not intended to continue after the Closing. Purchaser agrees that it shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain replacements for the Seller Credit Support Obligations (which shall include the full and unconditional release of Avaya and its affiliates) that will be in effect at the Closing or, in the case of Seller Credit Support Obligations described in the foregoing clause (b), will use its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for itself or one of its subsidiaries to be substituted as the primary obligor thereon as of the Closing through an assumption, accession, acknowledgement or similar agreement (which shall include the full and unconditional release of Avaya and its affiliates) with the beneficiary of the applicable Seller Credit Support Obligation. Whether or not Purchaser is able to satisfy the terms of the immediately preceding sentence, Purchaser shall indemnify the Seller Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses incurred by any of them relating to the Seller Credit Support Obligations. Purchaser agrees that, with respect to any Seller Credit Support Obligation, its reasonable best efforts pursuant to this Section 5.08 shall include, if requested, the execution and delivery by Purchaser, or by an affiliate of Purchaser acceptable to the beneficiary of such Seller Credit Support Obligation, of a replacement guarantee that is substantially in the form of such Seller Credit Support Obligation. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with providing the release or substitution of the Seller Credit Support Obligations shall be borne by Purchaser.

Section 5.09 Financing Cooperation . Prior to the Closing, Avaya shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to provide or cause to be provided, and to use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to provide or cause to be provided, to Purchaser, in each case, at Purchaser’s sole expense, all cooperation reasonably requested by Purchaser that is necessary or customary in connection with any debt financing contemplated by Purchaser for purposes of the Acquisition, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) participating (and causing management of the Business to participate) in a reasonable number of meetings and presentations and (ii) furnishing Purchaser and its lenders with all financial and other information reasonably required by Purchaser and its lenders in connection with arranging such debt financing (in each case, provided that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Avaya or any of its subsidiaries). None of Avaya or its subsidiaries shall be required to take any action pursuant to this Section 5.09 that would subject it to actual or potential Liability for which it would not be indemnified hereunder or to bear any out-of-pocket cost or expense or to pay any commitment or other fee or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with such debt financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless Avaya

43

and its subsidiaries and their respective Representatives from and against any and all Liabilities or Losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of such debt financing (including any action taken at Purchaser’s request pursuant to this Section 5.09 ) and any information utilized in connection therewith, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or intentional misconduct of Avaya or its subsidiaries or by breach of this Agreement by Avaya. Purchaser shall, promptly upon written request by Avaya, reimburse Avaya and its subsidiaries for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by them in connection with cooperation provided at Purchaser’s request pursuant to this Section 5.09 . Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the availability or obtaining of any financing is not a condition to Closing.

Section 5.10 Necessary Efforts; Further Action; Wrong Pockets; Mail Handling .

Section 9.03 Indemnification Procedures .

(a) Third Party Claims . If any party (the “ Indemnified Party ”) receives written notice of the commencement of any Proceeding or the assertion of any claim by a third party or the imposition of any penalty or assessment for which indemnity may be sought under Section 9.01 or Section 9.02(a) (a “ Third Party Claim ”), and such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article IX , the Indemnified Party shall promptly provide the

66

other party (the “ Indemnifying Party ”) with written notice of such Third Party Claim, stating the nature, basis, the amount thereof (to the extent known or estimated, which amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third Party Claim), the method of computation thereof (to the extent known or estimated), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto, and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto, along with copies of the relevant documents evidencing such Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from its indemnification obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party will have 30 days from receipt of any such notice of a Third Party Claim to give notice to the Indemnified Party whether it is assuming and controlling the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings thereof with counsel of the Indemnifying Party’s choice; provided that if the Indemnifying Party is Avaya, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume and control the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings for any Third Party Claim that: (i) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (ii) seeks an amount of Losses that would reasonably be expected to exceed the amount for which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify or (iii) relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding or involves claims by any Governmental Entity (including with respect to Taxes). So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim in accordance herewith, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in (but not control) the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim and (ii) the Indemnifying Party will not admit to any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings, the Indemnifying Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in (but not control) the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings of the Third Party Claim. In no event shall the Indemnifying Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to a settlement, compromise or discharge of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, unless (y) such settlement, compromise or discharge is on exclusively monetary terms (with such monetary amounts paid by the Indemnifying Party concurrently with the effectiveness of the settlement) and does not involve any finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party and does not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or impose any restriction or condition that would apply to or adversely affect any Indemnified Party and (z) the Indemnifying Party obtains, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a full and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party with respect to any and all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim. The parties will act in good faith in responding to, defending against, settling or otherwise dealing with Third Party Claims. The parties will also cooperate in any such defense, appeal or settlement proceedings, and give each other reasonable access to all information relevant thereto. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense, appeal or settlement proceedings with respect to a Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party will not be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder for any settlement, compromise or discharge entered into or any judgment that was consented to without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

67

(b) Other Claims.

(i) An Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice (a “ Claim Notice ”) of any matter that an Indemnified Party has determined in good faith has given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, stating the estimated amount of the Loss, if known (the aggregate amount of such estimate, as it may be modified by such Indemnified Party in good faith from time to time, the “ Claimed Amount ”), and the method of computation thereof, and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises.

(ii) Except as set forth in Section 9.01(e) , within 30 days after delivery of a Claim Notice, the Indemnifying Party will deliver to the Indemnified Party a written response (the “ Response ”) in which the Indemnifying Party will: (A) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive all of the Claimed Amount; (B) agree that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount (such portion, the “ Agreed Portion ”); or (C) dispute that the Indemnified Party is entitled to receive any of the Claimed Amount. If the Response is delivered in accordance with clauses (B) or (C) of the preceding sentence, the Response shall also contain a brief description of the facts and circumstances, if and to the extent that such facts and circumstances are reasonably available based upon the information available to the Indemnifying Party at such time, supporting the claim set forth in such Response that only a portion or no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the applicable Indemnified Party, as the case may be. Any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed to be owed to the applicable Indemnified Party pursuant to the applicable Response (or the entire Claimed Amount, if such Response asserts that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to such Indemnified Party) is referred to herein as the “ Contested Amount ” (it being understood that the Contested Amount shall be modified from time to time to reflect any good faith modifications in accordance with this Agreement by the applicable Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party to the Claimed Amount).

(iii) If a Response with respect to a Claim Notice agrees that the full Claimed Amount set forth in such Claim Notice is owed to the relevant Indemnified Party, then (A) the parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release such Claimed Amount from the Indemnity Escrow Account to such Indemnified Party (to the extent of the Indemnity Escrow Account) and (B) if the amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account is insufficient to cover such Claimed Amount in full, then, subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Article IX , the Indemnifying Party shall pay within five (5) Business Days following the delivery of such Response, the remaining amount due to such Indemnified Party.

(iv) If a Response with respect to a Claim Notice delivered to the relevant Indemnified Party during the 30-day period following delivery of such Claim Notice agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount set forth in such Claim Notice is owed to such Indemnitee, then (A) the parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release the Agreed Portion from the Indemnity Escrow Account to such Indemnified Party (to the extent of the Indemnity Escrow Account) and (B) if the amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account is insufficient to cover the full Agreed Portion, then, subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Article IX , the Indemnifying Party shall pay within five (5) Business Days following the delivery of such Response, the remaining amount due to such Indemnified Party. If the amount remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Account is insufficient to cover the full Stipulated Amount, then, subject to the limitations, terms and conditions of this Article IX , the Indemnifying Party shall pay within five (5) Business Days following the execution of such settlement agreement, or such shorter period of time as may be set forth in such settlement agreement, the remaining amount due to such Indemnified Party.

68

(v) If a Response with respect to a Claim Notice is delivered to the relevant Indemnified Party during the 30-day period following delivery of such Claim Notice indicating that there is a Contested Amount, then such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall discuss in good faith for a 30-day period to attempt to resolve the dispute related to the Contested Amount. If the Indemnifying Party and the relevant Indemnified Party resolve such dispute, such resolution shall be binding on the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party, to the extent set forth in a settlement agreement stipulating the amount owed to such Indemnified Party (the “ Stipulated Amount ”) signed by such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. Following the execution of such settlement agreement, the parties shall cause the Escrow Agent to release the Stipulated Amount from the Indemnity Escrow Account to the relevant Indemnified Party (to the extent of the Indemnity Escrow Account).

(vi) In the event that the Indemnifying Party disputes the Claimed Amount (or the portion of the Claimed Amount not comprising the Agreed Portion) and such dispute cannot be settled in accordance with Section 9.03(b)(iii) (including the time periods set forth therein), such dispute will be governed by a Proceeding subject to the terms of Section 11.09 , Section 11.12 , Section 11.13 and Section 11.14 .

(vii) Except for the amount (the “ Retained Amount ”) with respect to which Purchaser shall have, prior to the Escrow Expiration Date, previously made in good faith a valid claim pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Article IX and for which the obligations to indemnify, if any, shall not have been previously satisfied from the Indemnity Escrow Amount (each, a “ Continuing Claim ”), within three (3) Business Days following the Escrow Expiration Date, the Escrow Agent shall release to Avaya from the Indemnity Escrow Account an amount in the aggregate equal to (A) the remaining amount in the Indemnity Escrow Account as of the Escrow Expiration Date (as reduced from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), minus (B) the Retained Amount. Promptly following the resolution of any Continuing Claims pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Article IX , the parties shall direct the Escrow Agent to release any associated Retained Amount to Avaya.

Section 9.04 Limitations on Indemnification .

69

Price, (v) no party shall have any Liability for any otherwise indemnifiable Loss to the extent the matter underlying such Loss was taken into account in determining the adjustments to the Purchase Price as finally determined under Section 2.03 and (vi) no party shall have any Liability for an otherwise indemnifiable Loss that is contingent unless and until such contingent Loss becomes an actual Loss of the Indemnified Party and is due and payable, and the claim for such actual due and payable Loss was timely submitted pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX .

(b) No Purchaser Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.01(a) (other than with respect to the Specified Representations) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses subject to such indemnification would exceed, on a cumulative basis, an amount equal to $500,000 (the “ Deductible ”), and then only to the extent such Losses exceed the Deductible.

(c) The representations, warranties and covenants of Avaya, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by any Purchaser Indemnitee, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or knowledge of, any of the Purchaser Indemnitees or any of their Representatives.

To the extent that Purchaser takes any Transferred Asset free and clear of any Claim, Lien or Liability pursuant to the Sale Order, no Purchaser Indemnified Party shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant under this Article IX with respect to such Claim, Lien or Liability or any Losses arising or resulting from or related to such Claim, Lien or Liability.

(f) No Purchaser Indemnified Party will be entitled to recover or make a claim pursuant to Section 9.01(e) and no such claim or putative claim will count toward the $8 million amount in Section 9.01(e) ) unless such claim is based on customer warranty claims made pursuant to and in accordance with Avaya’s standard warranty policies available at https://support.avaya.com/helpcenter/getGenericDetails?detailId=C20091120112456651010.
