Within thirty (30) days after the Independent Accounting Firm’s selection, the Independent Accounting Firm shall make a final determination in accordance with the Accounting Principles and based solely on the written submissions of the parties, binding on the parties to this Agreement, of the appropriate amount of each of the matters that remain in dispute solely on the information that Parent and Purchaser have timely submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm. The Independent Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. With respect to each disputed matter, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Parent or Purchaser, shall not be in excess of the higher, or less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Parent in the Notice of Disagreement or by Purchaser in the Initial Closing Statement with respect to such disputed matter. The Independent Accounting Firm shall not review or make any determination with respect to any matter other than the matters that remain in dispute and shall not consider any events or developments that occurred after the Closing. The Initial Closing Statement as finally determined either through agreement of the parties pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or Section 2.6(b) or through the action of the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 2.6(c), shall be the “Final Closing Statement.”

(d)    All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Parent on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items so submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm that are unsuccessfully disputed by such party (as finally determined by the Independent Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of the disputed item so submitted. During the review by the Independent Accounting Firm, each of Purchaser and Parent shall, and shall cause its respective applicable Affiliates (including, in the case of Purchaser, the Transferred Entities) and its and their respective employees, accountants and other representatives to, each make available to the Independent Accounting Firm interviews with such personnel, and such information, books and records and work papers, as may be reasonably requested by the Independent Accounting Firm to fulfill its obligations under Section 2.6(c); provided, that the accountants of Parent or Purchaser shall not be obliged to make any work papers available to the Independent Accounting Firm except in accordance with such accountants’ normal disclosure procedures and then only after such Independent Accounting Firm has signed a customary agreement relating to such access to work papers.

(e)    The process set forth in Section 2.5 and this Section 2.6 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties and their respective Affiliates for any disputes related to the Closing Adjustments, the Post-Closing Adjustment, and the calculations and amounts on which they are based or set forth in the related statements and notices delivered in connection therewith.

Section 2.7    Post-Closing Adjustment. The “Post-Closing Adjustment” may be either a positive or negative amount, and shall be equal to (a) (i) the Final Working Capital Adjustment

Amount minus (ii) the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment Amount, plus (b) (i) the amount of Net Indebtedness set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement minus (ii) the amount of Net Indebtedness set forth in the Final Closing Statement, plus (c)(i) the Estimated Transaction Expenses minus (ii) the Final Transaction Expenses. Any of clause (a), clause (b) or clause (c) set forth in the preceding sentence may be either a positive or a negative amount. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a positive amount, then Purchaser shall pay in cash to Parent (or one or more Affiliates designated by Parent) the absolute value of the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment. If the Post-Closing Adjustment is a negative amount, then Parent (or an Affiliate designated by Parent) shall pay in cash to Purchaser the absolute value of the amount of the Post-Closing Adjustment. For illustrative purposes only, Schedule II sets forth a sample calculation of Post-Closing Adjustment. The Closing Purchase Price, as adjusted by the Post-Closing Adjustment, shall be the “Final Purchase Price.” Any such payment pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five (5) Business Days after the determination of the Final Closing Statement to an account designated in writing by the party entitled to the payment within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the Final Closing Statement.

Section 2.8    Local Share Transfer Agreements; Deferred Closings.

(a)    The transfer of each Transferred Entity organized in a jurisdiction in which local Laws require specified formalities or other procedures to be observed to legally effect a transfer of such Transferred Entity shall be effected pursuant to short-form acquisition agreements (the “Local Share Transfer Agreements”) on a country-by-country basis. Each Local Share Transfer Agreement shall be in a form mutually agreed by Parent and Purchaser; provided, in each case, that the Local Share Transfer Agreements shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Transferred Entity and shall not have any effect on the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the allocation of assets and Liabilities as between the parties, all of which shall be determined by this Agreement, or in any way modify, amend or constitute a waiver of, any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement.

(e)    Except as expressly set forth in the Commitment Letters, there are no conditions precedent to the obligations of the Lenders, the Preferred Equity Investors and the Equity Investors to provide the Financing or any contingencies that would permit the Lenders, the Preferred Equity Investors or the Equity Investors to reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Financing, including any condition or other contingency relating to the amount or availability of the Financing pursuant to any “flex” provision. Purchaser does not have any reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy on a timely basis all terms and conditions to be satisfied by it in any of the Commitment Letters on or prior to the Closing Date, nor does Purchaser have knowledge that any Lender, Preferred Equity Investor or Equity Investor will not perform its obligations thereunder. There are no side letters, understandings or other agreements, contracts or arrangements of any kind relating to the Commitment Letters that could affect the conditionality, enforceability, availability, termination or aggregate principal amount of the Financing.

(f)    As of the date hereof, assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters and giving effect to any “flex” provision in or related to the Debt Commitment Letter, or the fee letters, (including with respect to fees and original issue discount), the Financing shall provide Purchaser with cash proceeds on the Closing Date sufficient, together with available cash on hand, for the satisfaction of all of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Commitment Letters, including the payment of the Closing Purchase Price and the Final Purchase Price, and any fees and expenses of or payable by Purchaser or Purchaser’s Affiliates, and for any repayment or refinancing of any outstanding indebtedness of Purchaser or its Affiliates contemplated by, or required in connection with, the transactions described in this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or the Commitment Letters (such amounts, collectively, the “Financing Amounts”).

Purchaser has paid in full any and all commitment fees or other fees required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Commitment Letters on or before the date hereof, and will pay in full when due any such amounts that are due on or before the Closing Date. As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letters have not been modified, amended or altered and none of the respective commitments thereunder have been terminated, reduced, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect, and, to the Knowledge of Purchaser, no termination, reduction, withdrawal or rescission thereof is contemplated.

44

(h)    In no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including the Financing) by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or any other financing or other transactions be a condition to any of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement.

Section 5.3    Required Actions.

(a)    Purchaser Guarantor, Purchaser and the Sellers shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under any applicable Laws to consummate and make effective in the most expeditious manner possible the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including (i) the preparation and filing of all forms, registrations, notifications and notices required to be filed to consummate the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) taking and causing their respective Affiliates to take all actions necessary to obtain (and cooperating with each other in obtaining) any consent, clearance, expiration or termination of a waiting period, authorization,

Order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity (which actions shall include furnishing all information required under the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Laws) required to be obtained or made by Purchaser or any of the Sellers or any of their respective applicable Affiliates in connection with the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (iii) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to fully carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Additionally, the Sellers, Purchaser Guarantor and Purchaser shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under any applicable Laws to fulfill all conditions precedent to this Agreement so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as possible and shall not take, and shall cause their respective Affiliates not to take, any action after the date of this Agreement that would reasonably be expected to delay the obtaining of, or result in not obtaining, any consent, clearance, expiration or termination of a waiting period, authorization, Order or approval of, or any exemption by, any Governmental Entity necessary to be obtained at or prior to the Closing.

(b)    Without limiting the parties’ other obligations in this Section 5.3, the parties hereto shall jointly develop, consult and cooperate with one another regarding, the strategy for obtaining any necessary approval of, or responding to any request from, inquiry by, or investigation by (including directing the timing, nature and substance of all such responses), any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including determining the timing and content of any registrations, filings, agreements, forms, notices, petitions, statements, submissions of information, applications and other documents, communications and correspondence contemplated by, made in accordance with, or subject to this Section 5.3. Purchaser shall have the final authority to direct and implement the regulatory strategy; provided, however, that Purchaser will consult with Parent and consider in good faith the views of Parent in advance of making any decisions with respect to such strategy and provided, further, that Purchaser shall not, without Parent’s prior written consent, take any actions that are reasonably likely to cause any Governmental Entity to refer the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for an in-depth investigation. Each party hereto, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, shall keep the other apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all required consents, clearances, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, authorizations, Orders or approvals of, or any exemptions by, any Governmental Entity. In that regard, prior to the Closing, subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, each party hereto shall promptly consult with the other parties to this Agreement to provide any necessary information with respect to (and, in the case of correspondence, provide the other parties (or their counsel) copies of) all filings made by such party with any Governmental Entity or any other information supplied by such party to, or correspondence with, a Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement, the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, each party to this Agreement, as applicable, shall promptly inform the other party, and if in writing, furnish the other parties to this Agreement with copies of (or, in the case of oral communications, advise the other party of) any communication from any Governmental Entity regarding the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and permit the other party to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good

50

faith the views of the other party in connection with, any proposed written or oral communication or submission with or to any such Governmental Entity. If any party to this Agreement or any representative of such party receives a request for additional information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity with respect to the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then such party will make, or cause to be made, promptly and after consultation with the other parties to this Agreement, a complete response in compliance with such request. No party shall participate in any meeting with any Governmental Entity in connection with this Agreement or the Sale, or with any other Person in connection with any proceeding or Action by a private party relating to the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Laws in connection with this Agreement or the Sale, or make oral submissions at meetings or in telephone or other conversations, unless it reasonably consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent not prohibited by such Governmental Entity, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate thereat. Subject to the Confidentiality Agreement and Section 5.2, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, each party shall furnish the other party with copies of all correspondence, filings, submissions and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between it and any such Governmental Entity or other such Person with respect to this Agreement and the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and furnish the other party with such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings or submissions of information to any such Governmental Entity or other such Person. Purchaser and Parent may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other party under this Agreement as “outside counsel only.” Such designated materials, and the information contained therein, shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient involved in the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and shall not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Purchaser or Parent, as the case may be) or its legal counsel; it being understood that materials provided pursuant to this Agreement may be redacted (i) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Business, (ii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements and (iii) as necessary to address reasonable privilege concerns.

(c)    Purchaser and Parent shall file or cause to be filed, as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement, notifications under the HSR Act, and Purchaser and Parent shall file any other filings and/or notifications under applicable Competition Laws, as promptly as reasonably possible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no party shall make any filings and/or notifications under applicable Competition Laws in any jurisdiction, other than a Required Jurisdiction, unless Purchaser and Parent mutually agree that such filing and/or notification is necessary or advisable (and neither Purchaser nor Parent shall unreasonably refuse to agree). In the event that the parties receive any request for information or documentary material from any Governmental Entity, including a request for additional information or documentary materials pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Laws, the parties shall comply with such requests as promptly as reasonably possible and produce documents, responses to interrogatories, witnesses for deposition, or other information on a rolling basis, and counsel for both parties will closely cooperate during the entirety of any such investigatory or review process.

51

(d)    Purchaser and Parent shall, by any means other than termination of this Agreement, promptly resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement under the HSR Act, the Sherman Act, as amended, the Clayton Act, as amended, the Federal Trade Commission Act, as amended, or any other United States federal or state or foreign or supranational Laws that are designed or intended to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or lessening of competition through merger or acquisition or restraint of trade (collectively, “Competition Laws”). In connection therewith, if any Action is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement as violative of the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Laws, Purchaser and Parent shall jointly initiate and/or participate in any proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, to (i) initiate, oppose or defend against any Action by any Governmental Entity to prevent or enjoin the consummation of the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and/or (ii) take such action as necessary to overturn any regulatory Action by any Governmental Entity to block consummation of the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in each case to the extent necessary so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as possible including by defending any such Action brought by any Governmental Entity to avoid the entry of, or to have vacated, overturned or terminated, including by appeal if necessary, any Order that makes illegal or prohibits the consummation of the Sale or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement resulting from any such Action.

(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Purchaser shall take all actions necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under the HSR Act or any other applicable Competition Laws so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date), including (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate Order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of any businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Entities, Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates, and (ii) otherwise taking or committing to take actions that after the Closing would limit Purchaser’s, the Transferred Entities or their respective Affiliates’ freedom of action with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, any businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Entities, Purchaser, and their respective Affiliates, and Parent shall provide reasonable cooperation to Purchaser, consistent with the strategies determined under Section 5.3(b), to facilitate Purchaser taking such actions. In that regard Purchaser shall, and, if requested in writing by Purchaser, Parent shall (or, subject to Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, including this Section 5.3, if not so requested by Purchaser, Parent shall not), agree to divest, sell, dispose of, hold separate, or otherwise take or commit to take any action that limits its freedom of action with respect to, or Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’ ability to retain, any of the businesses, product lines or assets of the Transferred Entities, Purchaser, or any of Purchaser’s Affiliates; provided, however, that the obligations of Parent and its Affiliates shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the first two sentences of the last paragraph of Section 5.17(d) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis) and provided, further, that Parent and its Affiliates shall not be required to agree to retain any or all of the Transferred Entities or of the Business after the Closing. Purchaser shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Parent and its Affiliates and their respective representatives from and against any and all Losses (other than third party advisor costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) and other than overhead, employee and other internal costs incurred by Parent and its Affiliates) suffered

52

or incurred by them in connection with any actions taken at Purchaser’s request to facilitate or effectuate any divestiture, disposition or other remedy pursuant to this Section 5.3(e). All such efforts by Purchaser shall be unconditional, and no actions taken pursuant to this Section 5.3(e) nor the impact thereof on the Business shall be considered for purposes of determining whether a Business Material Adverse Effect has occurred or may occur. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent shall not be obligated to take or agree or commit to take any such action (A) that is not conditioned on the Closing or (B) that relates to or impacts the Retained Businesses.

(f)    Purchaser agrees to provide such security and assurances as to financial capability, resources and creditworthiness as may be reasonably requested by any Governmental Entity whose consent or approval is sought in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. Whether or not the Sale is consummated, Purchaser shall be responsible for all fees and payments (including filing fees and legal, economist and other professional fees) to any third party or any Governmental Entity to obtain any consent, clearance, expiration or termination of a waiting period, authorization, Order or approval pursuant to this Section 5.3 or Section 5.5, other than the fees of and payments to Parent’s legal and professional advisors.

59

(c)    Without limiting Section 5.11(a) or Section 5.11(b) in any respect, Purchaser (in the case of any Parent Guarantee) and Parent (in the case of any Transferred Entity Guarantee) shall use its reasonable best efforts, at its sole expense, to cause itself or its Affiliates to be substituted in all respects for the Guarantee Indemnified Party, and for the Guarantee Indemnified Party to be released, effective as of the Closing, in respect of, or otherwise terminate (and cause the Guarantee Indemnified Party to be released in respect of), all obligations of the Guarantee Indemnified Party under each Parent Guarantee or Transferred Entity Guarantee, as applicable (including, in each case, by delivering at Closing (i) executed agreements to assume reimbursement obligations for such Guarantees, (ii) executed instruments of guaranty, letters of credit or other documents requested by any banks, customers or other counterparties with respect to such Guarantees, and (iii) any other documents reasonably requested by Parent (in the case of any Parent Guarantee) or Purchaser (in the case of any Transferred Entity Guarantee) in connection with such party’s obligations under this Section 5.11). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, at the request of a Guarantee Indemnified Party, Purchaser (in the case of the Parent Guarantees) and Parent (in the case of the Transferred Entity Guarantees) shall and shall cause its Affiliates to assign or cause to be assigned any Contract underlying such Guarantee to an Affiliate of Purchaser (in the case of the Parent Guarantees) or Parent (in the case of the Transferred Entity Guarantees) meeting the applicable net worth and other requirements in such Contract to give effect to the provisions of the preceding sentence. For any Guarantees for which Purchaser or any Transferred Entity (in the case of a Parent Guarantee) or Parent or any of its Affiliates (in the case of a Transferred Entity Guarantee), as applicable, is not substituted in all respects for the Guarantee Indemnified Party (or for which the Guarantee Indemnified Party is not released) effective as of the Closing and that cannot otherwise be terminated effective as of the Closing (with the Guarantee Indemnified Party to be released in respect thereof), each of Purchaser (in the case of a Parent Guarantee) and Parent (in the case of a Transferred Entity Guarantee), shall continue to use its best efforts and shall cause its Affiliates to use their best efforts to effect such substitution or termination and release after the Closing.

The members of the Parent Group may amend any insurance policies in the manner they deem appropriate to give effect to this Section 5.12(a). From and after the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for the Transferred Entities and the Business. Subject to Section 5.12(b) and 5.12(c), and, Purchaser further covenants and agrees that it will not, and will cause the Transferred Entities to not, seek to assert or exercise any rights or claims of any Transferred Entity or the Business under or in respect of any past or current insurance policy, program or self-insurance program of any member of the Parent Group under which any Transferred Entity or Affiliate thereof or the Business has been a named insured.

60

(b)    Parent will maintain each of the workers compensation insurance policies in the United States set forth on Section 5.12(b) of the Parent Disclosure Schedule (“Workers Compensation Policies”), or suitable replacements therefor, in full force and effect through the Closing. Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.12(a), with respect to claims relating to acts, omissions, events or circumstances relating to Business Employees that occurred or existed prior to the Closing that are covered by Workers Compensation Policies (“Pre-Closing WC Claims”), Parent hereby authorizes Purchaser to report Pre-Closing WC Claims directly to the provider of such Workers Compensation Policies and Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser’s efforts to obtain the benefit of such insurance coverage; provided, that Purchaser shall keep Parent reasonably informed and shall exclusively bear and shall promptly repay or reimburse Parent and its Affiliates for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Parent and its Affiliates associated with Purchaser-requested claims, including any expenses, costs of filing a claim, arbitration costs, deductibles resulting from or allocable to any claims under the Workers Compensation Policies, but excluding premium increases resulting from or allocable to any claims under the Workers Compensation Policies (and Parent and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to incur any such unreimbursed costs); provided, further that Purchaser shall be liable for and indemnify Parent and its Affiliates against all uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts of such claims.

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in Section 5.12(a), with respect to claims arising out of any actual or alleged occurrences, incidents or damages occurring prior to the Closing (“Pre-Closing Occurrence Policy Claims”) that are or may be covered by any current or historical occurrence-based commercial general liability or auto liability insurance policy in the United States (for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any self-insurance policy or program) maintained by any member of the Parent Group for the benefit of the Transferred Entities (each, an “Occurrence Policy”), the Parent Group hereby authorizes the Transferred Entities to report Pre-Closing Occurrence Policy Claims directly to the provider of such Occurrence Policy and the Parent Group shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Transferred Entities’ efforts to obtain the benefit of such insurance coverage; provided, that the Transferred Entities shall keep the Parent Group reasonably informed and shall exclusively bear and shall promptly repay or reimburse the Parent Group for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by any member of the Parent Group associated with any Pre-Closing Occurrence Policy Claim made by any of the Transferred Entities, including any expenses, costs of filing a claim, arbitration costs, deductibles resulting from or allocable to any Pre-Closing Occurrence Policy Claim made by any of the Transferred Entities, but excluding premium increases resulting from or allocable to any Pre-Closing Occurrence Policy Claim made by any of the Transferred Entities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that the Parent Group and any of the Transferred Entities have competing claims under an Occurrence Policy and there are insufficient coverage limits remaining under that Occurrence Policy, then Parent Group shall have first right of access to the remaining insurance limits.

(d)    This Agreement shall not be considered 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 Parent or any of its Affiliates in respect of any insurance policy or any other Contract or policy of insurance.

(a)    Except as expressly provided in this Section 5.15, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall use, or have or acquire the right to use, any other rights in the Parent Names. Within twenty (20) Business Days of Closing, Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to cause each of the Transferred Entities having a name, trademark, service mark or logo that includes the Parent Names (“Corporate Names”) to change its name to a name that does not include any Parent Name, including making any legal filings necessary to effect such change.

(b)    Except as provided in Section 5.15(a) with respect to the change of Corporate Names, the Transferred Entities may continue temporarily to use the Parent Names following the Closing, to the extent and in the same manner as used immediately prior to Closing, so long as Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, to (i) immediately after the Closing, cease to hold itself out as having any affiliation with Parent or any of its Affiliates and (ii) use reasonable best efforts to minimize and eliminate use of the Parent Names by the Transferred Entities; provided, that as soon as practicable after the Closing Date (and in any event within one-hundred and twenty (120) days thereafter) Purchaser shall and shall cause each of the Transferred Entities to, other than as set forth in Section 5.15(c), (x) cease and discontinue use of all Parent Names and (y) complete the removal of the Parent Names from all products, services, platforms, websites, signage, vehicles, properties, technical information, stationery and promotional or other marketing materials and other assets.

(a)    Purchaser shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain funds sufficient to fund the Financing Amounts on or prior to the date upon which the Sale is required to be consummated pursuant to the terms hereof. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Purchaser shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain the proceeds of the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letters as promptly as possible but in any event on or prior to the date upon which the Sale is required to be consummated pursuant to the terms hereof, including by (i) maintaining in effect the Commitment Letters, (ii) negotiating and entering into definitive agreements with respect to the Financing (the “Definitive Agreements”) on terms and conditions no less favorable to Purchaser than those contained (provided that the terms and conditions of such agreements, to the extent different from those of the Commitment Letters, do not have any of the effects described in Section 5.17(b)(A)(1)-(4) below) in the Commitment Letters (including, as necessary, the “flex” provisions contained in any related fee letter) and (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all conditions in the Commitment Letters and, if applicable, the Definitive Agreements and complying with its obligations thereunder.

Additionally, Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to consummate, and in the case of the Debt Financing, obtain in escrow, as applicable, the proceeds of, the Financing (or, in the case of the bridge facilities contemplated by the Commitment Letter, high yield

65

financing or other financing incurred in lieu thereof) as promptly as possible after the date on which it receives the Required Information (assuming for such purposes the last day of the Marketing Period will be completed on or prior to February 10, 2020), subject to the first proviso of the definition of Marketing Period; provided, Purchaser shall have no obligation to fund the bank debt portion of the Debt Financing into escrow so long as Purchaser has delivered executed Definitive Agreements related thereto and the funding thereof is subject only to the conditions set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter, other than the delivery of definitive documentation.

(b)    Purchaser shall not without the prior written consent of Parent: (A) permit any amendment or modification to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Commitment Letters or the Definitive Agreements if such amendment, modification, waiver or remedy (1) adds new (or adversely modifies any existing) conditions to the consummation of all or any portion of the Financing, (2) reduces the aggregate principal amount of the Financing, (3) adversely affects the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against other parties to the Commitment Letters or the Definitive Agreements as so amended, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified, relative to the ability of Purchaser to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letters as in effect on the date hereof or (4) could otherwise reasonably be expected to prevent or impede or delay the consummation of the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (B) terminate the Commitment Letters or any Definitive Agreement. Purchaser shall promptly deliver to Parent copies of any such amendment, modification, waiver or replacement.

(c)    In the event that any portion of the Debt Financing or Preferred Equity Financing becomes unavailable, other than as a result of Parent’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Article VIII Purchaser will (A) use reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing (in an amount sufficient such that Purchaser will have sufficient cash to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) from the same or other sources and which do not include any conditions to the consummation of such alternative financing that are more onerous than the conditions set forth in the Financing and (B) promptly notify Parent of such unavailability and the reason therefor. In the event that (1) any portion of the Debt Financing structured as permanent financing is unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor, (2) all conditions contained in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied or waived (other than (x) any such conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing and (y) those conditions the failure of which to be satisfied is attributable to a breach by Purchaser of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement) and the Marketing Period has been completed and (3) the bridge facilities contemplated by the Commitment Letters (or alternative bridge facilities obtained in accordance with this Section 5.17) are available on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter, then, unless the proceeds of such permanent financing have been deposited into escrow subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of conditions precedent which shall not be more restrictive in any respect than the conditions applicable to the funding of the Financing under the Commitment Letter, Purchaser shall cause the proceeds of such bridge financing to be used immediately in lieu of such affected portion of the permanent financing. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Commitment Letters” shall be deemed to include any commitment letter (or similar agreement) with respect to any alternative financing arranged in compliance herewith (and any Commitment Letter remaining in effect at the time in question). Purchaser shall provide Parent with prompt written notice of any actual or threatened

66

breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letters or any Definitive Agreement and a copy of any written notice or other written communication from any Lender, Preferred Equity Investor, Equity Investor or other financing source with respect to any actual or threatened breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Commitment Letters or any Definitive Agreement of any provision thereof. Purchaser shall keep Parent reasonably informed on a current basis of the status of its efforts to consummate the Financing. The foregoing notwithstanding, compliance by Purchaser with this Section 5.17 shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available.

(d)    Prior to the Closing, Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective personnel and representatives (including legal and accounting representatives) to use their reasonable best efforts, to provide customary cooperation, to the extent reasonably requested by Purchaser in writing, in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or any high yield bonds being issued in lieu of all or a portion of the Debt Financing (a “high yield financing”) or the Preferred Equity Financing (provided, that such requested cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with the ongoing operations of Parent or any of its Affiliates), including using reasonable best efforts to:

Purchaser shall, promptly upon request by Parent, reimburse Parent or any of its Affiliates for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by them or their respective representatives in connection with such cooperation and shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Parent and its Affiliates and their respective representatives from and against any and all losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing or Preferred Equity Financing, any action taken by them at the request of Purchaser or its representatives pursuant to this Section 5.17 and any information used in connection therewith, except to the extent that any of the foregoing are determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the bad faith or willful misconduct of Parent or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees or representatives, as applicable.

(e)    The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions contained in this Section 5.17 represent the sole obligation of Parent and its Subsidiaries with respect to cooperation in connection with the arrangement of any financing (including the Financing) to be obtained by Purchaser with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and no other provision of this Agreement (including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto) or the Ancillary Agreements shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligations. In no event shall the receipt or availability of any funds or financing (including the Financing) by Purchaser any of its Affiliates or any other financing or other transactions be a condition to any of Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement.

(f)    All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding Parent or any of its Affiliates obtained by Purchaser or its representatives pursuant to this Section 5.17 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement; provided, that Purchaser shall be permitted to disclose information as necessary and consistent with customary practices in connection with the Financing subject to customary confidentiality arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Parent. Parent hereby consents to the use of the Transferred Entities’ logos in connection with the Financing.

Section 5.18    R&W Insurance Policy. Purchaser will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a conditional binder to a representation and warranty and pre-closing tax indemnity insurance policy (the “R&W Insurance Policy”) as promptly as possible after the date hereof. Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary to complete the applicable conditions in the conditional binder (other than the condition that the Closing has occurred) to the R&W Insurance Policy within the times set forth therein to maintain the R&W Insurance Policy in full force and effect. Following the final issuance of the R&W Insurance

69

Policy, Purchaser agrees to use reasonable best efforts to keep the R&W Insurance Policy in full force and effect for the policy period set forth therein. Upon its final issuance, Purchaser shall deliver the R&W Insurance Policy to Parent. The parties acknowledge that Purchaser obtaining the R&W Insurance Policy is a material inducement to Parent entering into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and Parent is relying on Purchaser’s covenants and obligations set forth in this Section 5.18. The R&W Insurance Policy shall include a provision whereby the insurer expressly waives, and irrevocably agrees, except in the case of Actual Fraud, not to pursue, directly or indirectly, any subrogation rights against Parent or any of its Affiliates, or any former shareholders, managers, members, directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing with respect to any claim made by any insured thereunder and such Persons shall be express third party beneficiaries of such provision. In addition, the R&W Insurance Policy may not be amended or waived by Purchaser in any manner that is adverse to Parent or any of its Affiliates without Parent’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and the subrogation provisions therein may not be amended or waived in any manner that is adverse to Parent or any of its Affiliates without Parent’s prior written consent. In the event that Purchaser or any of its Affiliates otherwise amends, waives, modifies or cancels the terms of the R&W Insurance Policy, in no event shall Parent be liable under Article X for any liabilities or obligations in excess of such liabilities or obligations as they would have under Article X if the R&W Insurance Policy had not been so amended, waived, modified or cancelled.

(d)    In the event that any Transferred Entity, Purchaser or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a majority of their respective properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of such Transferred Entity or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall succeed to or assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.19.

(e)    The obligations of Purchaser and the Transferred Companies under this Section 5.19 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any indemnitee to whom this Section 5.19 applies without the express written consent of such affected indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the indemnitees to whom this Section 5.19 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 5.19).

Section 5.20    Resignations. Each Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver any resignations or removals, effective as of the Closing (other than with respect to any Deferred Transferred Companies or any Subsidiary thereof, which shall be effective as of the applicable Deferred Closing), of the directors, managers and officers of the Transferred Entities that are requested by Purchaser no less than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or Deferred Closing Date, as applicable).

Section 5.22    No Solicitation of Other Bids. Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Sellers will cease, terminate and cause to be terminated, and will cause all of their respective representatives to immediately cease, terminate and cause to be terminated, all discussions or negotiations with any Person, other than Purchaser and its Affiliates, with respect to, or that would reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. Promptly following the date of this Agreement, Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to exercise its rights under applicable confidentiality agreements entered into with potential purchasers of the Transferred Entities to demand the return or destruction of any confidential information of the Transferred Companies that was furnished to such Person in connection with any Acquisition Proposal.

TAX MATTERS

Section 7.1    Purchase Price Allocation.

(a)    Parent and Purchaser agree to allocate and, as applicable, to cause their respective Affiliates to allocate, the Final Purchase Price and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes among the Shares of the Transferred Companies (and any assets that, for Tax purposes, are treated as assets purchased by Purchaser (or its relevant Affiliates) pursuant to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement) in accordance with Schedule III hereto (the “Allocation Schedule”).

(b)    To the extent necessary to prepare bills of sale, transfer agreements, or otherwise to timely comply with the requirements of applicable Law in respect of the sale of any Shares (or other assets), as soon as practicable (but no later than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the Closing), Parent shall deliver to Purchaser a proposed preliminary allocation of the relevant portion of the Closing Purchase Price and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes among the Shares of the Transferred Companies (or other assets, as applicable) determined in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule (the “Preliminary Allocation”). If Purchaser disagrees with any Preliminary Allocation, Purchaser may, within ten (10) Business Days after delivery of such Preliminary Allocation, deliver a notice to Parent to such effect,

78

specifying those items as to which Purchaser disagrees and setting forth Purchaser’s proposed preliminary allocation. Parent and Purchaser shall, during the ten (10) Business Days following such delivery cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute prior to the Closing (any agreed upon matters at Closing, the “Agreed Preliminary Allocations”).

(c)    No later than ninety (90) days after the date on which the Final Purchase Price is finally determined pursuant to Section 2.7, Parent shall deliver to Purchaser a proposed allocation of the Final Purchase Price and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes among the Shares of the Transferred Companies (and any assets that, for Tax purposes, are treated as assets purchased by Purchaser (or its relevant Affiliates) pursuant to this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement) determined in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule, Sections 338 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and any other relevant provisions of applicable Tax Law and reflecting any Agreed Preliminary Allocations (“Parent’s Allocation”). If Purchaser disagrees with Parent’s Allocation (other than with respect to any Agreed Preliminary Allocations), Purchaser may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of Parent’s Allocation, deliver a written notice (“Purchaser’s Allocation Notice”) to Parent to such effect, specifying those items as to which Purchaser disagrees and setting forth Purchaser’s proposed allocation. If Purchaser’s Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Parent and Purchaser shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts in order to determine the allocation of the Final Purchase Price and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes. If Parent and Purchaser are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Independent Accounting Firm to resolve any remaining disputes. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 7.1(c) shall be borne equally by Parent on the one hand, and Purchaser on the other hand. Any allocation of the Final Purchase Price and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes determined pursuant to the decision of the Independent Accounting Firm shall incorporate, reflect, and be consistent with the Agreed Preliminary Allocations and the Allocation Schedule. The allocation, as prepared by Parent if no Purchaser’s Allocation Notice has been given, as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between Parent and Purchaser, or as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence (the “Allocation”), shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto absent manifest error. The Allocation shall be adjusted, as necessary, to reflect any subsequent adjustments to the Final Purchase Price pursuant to Section 7.5 (and any other amounts treated as consideration for Tax purposes). Any such adjustment shall be allocated to the Share, Shares, asset, or assets (if any) to which such adjustment is attributable; provided, that to the extent there are no such assets or shares, such adjustment shall be allocated pro rata among the Shares (and other assets) sold.

(d)    None of Parent or Purchaser shall (and they shall cause their respective Affiliates not to) take any position inconsistent with the Allocation or the Agreed Preliminary Allocations on any Tax Return (including the Section 338(h)(10) Forms, IRS Form 8594, and IRS Form 8023) or in any Tax Proceeding or otherwise, in each case, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of applicable state, local or foreign Law). If any taxing authority disputes the Allocation or the Agreed Preliminary Allocations, the party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other party hereto of such dispute and the parties hereto shall cooperate in good faith in responding to such dispute in order to preserve the effectiveness of such allocation.

(a)    Without Parent’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Entities) not to make any election with respect to any Transferred Entity (including any entity classification election pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3), or change any method of Tax accounting or any Tax accounting period of any Transferred Entity, which election or change would be effective on or prior to the Closing Date or (ii) take any action or engage in any transaction that would reasonably be expected to increase any Tax liability required to be reflected as a reserve or as Indebtedness (or otherwise require any Tax liability to be reflected as a reserve or as Indebtedness that would not otherwise be required to be so reflected) for purposes of calculating the Final Purchase Price.

(b)    Parent and Purchaser shall (or shall cause their relevant Affiliates to) jointly make a timely and irrevocable election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any corresponding elections under any applicable state or local Tax Law) with respect to the acquisition of each of the Transferred Entities that is a domestic corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Elections”).

(c)    Parent and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their relevant Affiliates to) cooperate in the preparation of all forms, attachments and schedules necessary to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) Elections, including IRS Forms 8023 and 8883 and any similar forms under applicable state and local income Tax Laws (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Forms”), in a manner consistent with the Allocation. Parent and Purchaser shall (or shall cause their relevant Affiliates to) timely file such Section 338(h)(10) Forms with the applicable taxing authorities. Parent and Purchaser agree that none of them shall, or shall permit any of their Affiliates to, revoke the Section 338(h)(10) Elections following the filing of the Section 338(h)(10) Forms without the prior written consent of Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be.

(d)    At the Closing, Parent and Purchaser shall each deliver to the other party one or more duly executed IRS Forms 8023 that reflect the Section 338(h)(10) Elections (and any analogous forms required to effectuate the Section 338(h)(10) Elections for state or local Tax purposes), each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such other party.

(e)    Purchaser shall make (and shall cause its relevant Affiliates to make) an election under Section 338(g) of the Code with respect to the acquisition of each of the Transferred Entities that is a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income Tax purposes pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the “Section 338(g) Elections”). Promptly following the making of each Section 338(g) Election, Purchaser shall deliver to Parent a copy of IRS Form 8023.

(f)    Parent and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) (i) prepare and file all federal, state, and local Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Section 338(h)(10) Elections and Section 338(g) Elections and (ii) not take any position

80

inconsistent therewith on any Tax Return, in connection with any Tax Proceeding or otherwise, in each case, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any analogous provision of state, local or foreign law).

Section 7.3    Cooperation and Exchange of Information.

Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with all relevant portions of relevant accompanying schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities and relevant records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property and other information, which any such party may possess. Each party shall make its employees reasonably available on a mutually convenient basis at its cost to provide an explanation of any documents or information so provided.

(b)    Each party shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, and all material records and other documents relating to Tax matters, of the relevant entities for their respective Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date until the later of (x) the expiration of the statute of limitations for the Tax periods to which the Tax Returns and other documents relate, or (y) eight (8) years following the due date (without extension) for such Tax Returns. Thereafter, the party holding such Tax Returns or other documents may dispose of them after offering the other party reasonable notice and opportunity to take possession of such Tax Returns and other documents at such other party’s own expense.

Section 7.4    Tax Sharing Agreements. On or before the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the Transferred Entities pursuant to all Tax sharing agreements or arrangements (other than this Agreement), if any, to which any of the Transferred Entities, on the one hand, and any member of the Parent Group, on the other hand, are parties, shall terminate, and neither any member of the Parent Group, on the one hand, nor any of the Transferred Entities, on the other hand, shall have any rights or obligations to each other after the Closing in respect of such agreements or arrangements.

Section 7.5    Tax Treatment of Payments. Except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” (within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law), Parent, Purchaser, the Transferred Entities and their respective Affiliates shall treat any and all payments under Section 2.7, Section 6.6, Section 6.16 and Article X as an adjustment to the Closing Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

Section 7.6    Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any sales, use, transfer, real property transfer, registration, documentary, stamp, value added or similar Taxes and related fees and costs imposed on or payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty-percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty-percent (50%) by Parent. The party responsible under

81

applicable Law for filing the Tax Returns with respect to any such Transfer Taxes shall prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and promptly provide a copy of such Tax Return to the other party. Parent and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate to timely prepare and file any Tax Returns or other filings relating to such Transfer Taxes, including any claim for exemption or exclusion from the application or imposition of any Transfer Taxes. Purchaser shall promptly pay all Transfer Taxes due with respect to Tax Returns to be filed by Purchaser under this Section 7.6, and Purchaser shall pay to Parent fifty-percent (50%) of any Transfer Taxes due with respect to Tax Returns to be filed by Parent under this Section 7.6 at least two (2) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Returns. Parent shall promptly pay all Transfer Taxes due with respect to Tax Returns to be filed by Parent under this Section 7.6, and Parent shall pay to Purchaser fifty percent (50%) of any Transfer Taxes due with respect to Tax Returns to be filed by Purchaser under this Section 7.6, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the due date for the filing of such Tax Returns.

Section 7.7    Straddle Periods. For purposes of determining the Pre-Closing Tax Amount, with respect to any Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Taxes that are allocable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (a) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts, sales or use, employment, withholding or similar items, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date (or the day prior to Closing, as applicable) and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period and (b) in the case of any Taxes based upon or related to income, gains or receipts, sales or use, employment, withholding or similar items, be deemed equal to the portion of such Taxes that are allocable to such period computed on a closing of the books basis as if the relevant Tax period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date (or the day prior to the Closing, as applicable); provided that any Tax item determined on an annual or periodic basis (such as deductions for depreciation or real estate Taxes) shall be apportioned on a daily basis.

Section 7.8    Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each of Parent and Purchaser shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, the amounts required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided, however, that (a) at least ten (10) days prior to making any payment of any amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, the party making such Payment (the “Paying Party”) shall notify the payee (which notice shall include a statement of the amounts Paying Party intends to deduct or withhold in respect of making such payment and the applicable provision of law requiring it to withhold or deduct) and a reasonable opportunity for the payee to provide such forms or other evidence that would eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding and (b) Purchaser and Parent shall cooperate in good faith to reduce or eliminate any deduction or withholding. Any amounts so withheld or deducted shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Tax authority. To the extent that amounts are so deducted

82

and withheld, such deducted and withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(a)    by mutual written consent of Parent and Purchaser;

(b)    by either Parent or by Purchaser, if:

(i)    the Closing shall not have occurred on or before the date that is twelve (12) months after the date of this Agreement (the “Outside Date”); provided, further, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose failure to perform any material covenant or obligation under this Agreement has been a principal cause of the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Outside Date;

84

(ii)    the Sellers (in the case of a termination by Purchaser) or Purchaser (in the case of a termination by Parent) shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, and such breach or failure to perform (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 8.2(a), Section 8.2(b), Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b), as applicable, and (B) (1) is incapable of being cured prior to the Outside Date or (2) has not been cured prior to the date that is forty-five (45) days from the date that the breaching or non-performing party is notified in writing by the other party of such breach or failure to perform; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to any party if such party shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement; or

(c)    by Parent, if (i) all of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and that would be satisfied if there were a Closing) have been satisfied or waived, (ii) each Seller has notified Purchaser in writing at least two (2) Business Days prior to such termination that, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.8(b) with respect to any Deferred Closing Jurisdiction, it is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing, and (iii) Purchaser has failed to consummate the Closing, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.8(b) with respect to the Deferred Closing Jurisdiction, within two (2) Business Days after the date by which the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Surviving Obligations and Article XI (General Provisions) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

85

(b)    Purchaser shall pay to Parent (or Parent’s designee) two hundred million dollars ($200,000,000.00) (the “Purchaser Termination Fee”) if Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(ii) or Section 9.1(c).

(d)    Any fee due under this Section 9.3(b) or Section 9.3(c) shall be paid by wire transfer to the account specified in writing by Parent of same-day funds within two (2) Business Days after such termination.

If Purchaser fails to pay any amount when due pursuant to this Section 9.3, then Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent (or its designee) the amount due, together with interest accruing daily on such amount from the date on which such payment was due at an annual rate equal to the prime rate set forth in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was due plus two percent (2%).

(e)    Each of the parties acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and hereby agree that the Purchaser Termination Fee and the Regulatory Termination Fee if, as and when required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.3, shall not

86

constitute a penalty but will be liquidated damages, in a reasonable amount that will compensate Parent such amount in the circumstances in which it is payable for the efforts and resources expended and opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Sale, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay more than one (1) Purchaser Termination Fee or one (1) Regulatory Termination Fee, or be required to pay both the Purchaser Termination Fee and the Regulatory Termination Fee, pursuant to this Agreement and (y) the parties agree that except for the right to seek and obtain any equitable relief pursuant to Section 11.11, and except in the event of Actual Fraud or a Willful Breach of this Agreement by Purchaser or the Purchaser Guarantor (I) the payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee or the Regulatory Termination Fee shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to the Sellers with respect to this Agreement in the event any such payment becomes due and payable, and (II) upon payment of the Purchaser Termination Fee or the Regulatory Termination Fee when due and payable, Purchaser and the Financing Parties (and Purchaser’s Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, stockholders, Equity Investors and representatives) shall have no further liability to any of the Sellers in connection with this Agreement (including the Financing), in each case except for any Liability in respect of the Surviving Obligations (it being acknowledged that Purchaser’s failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement at the Closing as a result of the failure of the Debt Financing and the Preferred Equity Financing to be funded at the Closing shall not, in and of itself, be deemed a Willful Breach of this Agreement).

Section 9.4    Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, either Parent (on behalf of the Sellers), on the one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, may (a) extend the time for performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions of the other contained in this Agreement. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by the party granting such extension or waiver.

If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to select counsel, contractors and consultants. Purchaser or Parent, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their Affiliates and representatives to, reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim, including by furnishing books and records,

89

personnel and witnesses, as appropriate for any defense of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense and control of a Third Party Claim, it shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, with the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that no such consent of the Indemnified Party shall be required if such settlement or judgment does not involve any injunctive relief or finding or admission of any violation of Law or admission of any wrongdoing by any Indemnified Party. No Indemnified Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c)    To the extent that Purchaser makes a claim solely against the R&W Insurance Policy and not against the Sellers, the procedures set forth in Section 10.4(a) and Section 10.4(b) shall not apply.

(d)    Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Parent shall have the exclusive right to control in all respects, and neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to participate in, any Tax Proceeding with respect to any Tax Return of (i) Parent or any of its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities) or (ii) any Consolidated Returns.

Section 10.5    Exclusive Remedy; No Recourse.

(a)    Purchaser and Parent acknowledge and agree that, except (i) in connection with Actual Fraud, (ii) with respect to the matters covered by Section 2.5 through Section 2.7 or Section 11.17 and (iii) for the parties’ right to seek and obtain any equitable relief pursuant to Section 11.11, from and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Section 10.2 and Section 10.3 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Parent and Purchaser for any Losses arising out of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or the Local Share Transfer Agreements (but excluding the other Ancillary Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser hereby irrevocably waives any right of rescission it may otherwise have or to which it may become entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the rights provided under the R&W Insurance Policy shall be Purchaser’s sole recourse, and Parent and its Affiliates shall have no Liability, for any actual or alleged breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement or the Local Share Transfer Agreements (or any certificate or other document delivered hereunder), other than in connection with Actual Fraud.

(b)    Parent and Purchaser agree that the limits imposed on remedies with respect to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby constitute an integral part of the consideration provided to Parent hereunder, were specifically bargained for between sophisticated parties and their respective counsel and were specifically taken into account in the determination of the amounts to be paid to Parent hereunder.

Section 10.6    Additional Indemnification Provisions. With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in this Agreement, all Losses shall be reduced by (a) any Tax benefits actually realized by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the incurrence of such Loss, and (b) the amount of any third-party insurance or reimbursement

90

proceeds that have been recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification (it being agreed that if such proceeds in respect of such facts are recovered by the Indemnified Party subsequent to the Indemnifying Party’s making of an indemnification payment in satisfaction of its applicable indemnification obligation, such proceeds shall be promptly remitted to the Indemnifying Party to the extent such proceeds would have reduced the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification obligations), and the Indemnified Party shall use, and cause its Affiliates to use, reasonable best efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance and other indemnity and reimbursement provisions covering such Losses to the same extent as it would if such Losses were not subject to indemnification hereunder. Upon making any payment to the Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this Article X, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights or claims which the Indemnified Party may have against any third parties with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim, and the Indemnified Party shall assign any such rights or claims to the Indemnifying Party or, where such assignment is not permitted, use commercially reasonable efforts to recover in respect of such rights or claims against the third parties on behalf of the Indemnifying Party.

Section 10.7    Limitation of Liability. In no event shall any Indemnifying Party have Liability to any Indemnified Party for, and Losses shall not be deemed to include, any special, incidental, exemplary, indirect, punitive or similar damages, or for any loss of future revenue, profits or income, or for any diminution in value damages measured as a multiple of earnings, revenue or any other performance metric, except for any such damages to the extent actually awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction and paid to a third party. Neither the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, on the one hand, nor the Parent Indemnified Parties, on the other hand, shall be entitled to recover more than once in respect of any Loss.

Section 10.8    Mitigation. Each of the parties agrees to use, and to cause its Affiliates to use, its reasonable best efforts to mitigate its respective Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event or condition that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder, and no Indemnifying Party shall be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or result from the Indemnified Party’s failure to use reasonable best efforts to mitigate such Losses.

Section 11.11    Specific Performance.

(a)    The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage, for which monetary damages (even if available) would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and agree that, subject to Section 11.11(b), the parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which

96

they are entitled in Law or in equity. Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and any other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at Law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or in 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 such order or injunction. The parties acknowledge and agree that Parent is entitled to specific performance under this Agreement and under the Equity Commitment Letter to cause the Equity Investors to fund the Closing Purchase Price and Final Purchase Price, subject to Section 11.11(b).

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is acknowledged and agreed that Purchaser has an obligation hereunder to cause the Equity Financing to be funded, including by exercising its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter, subject to the requirements set forth below, and that the right of Parent to specific performance in connection with enforcing the obligations of Purchaser under the Equity Commitment Letter will be subject to the requirements that (A) all of the conditions in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing and that would be satisfied if there were a Closing) have been satisfied or waived; (B) the Debt Financing and the Preferred Equity Financing have been funded or will be funded in full at the Closing if the Equity Financing is funded at the Closing; (C) Parent has confirmed in a written notice to Purchaser that if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing, Preferred Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, then, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.8(b) with respect to any Deferred Closing Jurisdiction, Parent is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing; and (D) Purchaser has failed to consummate the Closing within two (2) Business Days after the date by which the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3.

Section 11.12    Waiver of Conflicts Regarding Representation; Nonassertion of Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a)    Purchaser waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, including the Transferred Entities, to waive and not to assert, any conflict of interest arising out of or relating to the representation, after the Closing (the “Post-Closing Representation”), of Parent, any of its Affiliates or any shareholder, officer, employee or director of Parent or any of its Affiliates (any such Person, a “Designated Person”) in any matter involving this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements or any other agreements or transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, by Wachtell and Quinn (the “Current Representation”).

(b)    Purchaser waives and will not assert, and agrees to cause its Affiliates, including the Transferred Entities, to waive and not to assert, any attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection with respect to any communication between Wachtell or Quinn and any Designated Person occurring under the Current Representation in connection with any Post-Closing Representation, including in connection with a dispute with Purchaser or its Affiliates, and following the Closing, with any Transferred Entity (including in respect of any claim for indemnification by Purchaser), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all such rights to such attorney-client and other applicable legal privilege or protection and to control

97

such attorney-client and other applicable legal privilege or protection shall be retained by Parent and that Parent, and not Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities, shall have the sole right to decide whether or not to waive any attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection. Accordingly, from and after Closing, none of Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities shall have any access to any such communications or to the files of the Current Representation, all of which shall be and remain the property of Parent and not of Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Transferred Entities, or to internal counsel of Parent and its Affiliates relating to such engagement, and none of Purchaser, its Affiliates, the Transferred Entities or any Person acting or purporting to act on their behalf shall seek to obtain the same by any process on the grounds that the privilege and protection attaching to such communications and files belongs to Parent.

Section 11.13    Financing Provisions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Parent on behalf of itself, its Subsidiaries and each of its controlled Affiliates hereby: (a) agrees that any proceeding, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, involving the Financing Parties, arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Preferred Equity Financing or any of the agreements (including the Debt Commitment Letter and the Preferred Equity Commitment Letter) entered into in connection with the Debt Financing, the Preferred Equity Financing or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, so long as such forum is and remains available, and any appellate court thereof and each party hereto irrevocably submits itself and its property with respect to any such proceeding to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court, (b) agrees that any such proceeding shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of another state), except as otherwise provided in the Debt Commitment Letter, the Preferred Equity Commitment Letter or other applicable definitive document relating to the Debt Financing or the Preferred Equity Financing, as applicable, (c) agrees not to bring or support or permit any of its Affiliates to bring or support any proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Party in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Preferred Equity Financing, the Preferred Equity Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder in any forum other than any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, (d) agrees that service of process upon Parent or its controlled Affiliates in any such proceeding shall be effective if notice is given in accordance with Section 11.7, (e) irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such proceeding in any such court, (f) knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law trial by jury in any proceeding brought against the Financing Parties in any way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Preferred Equity Financing, the Preferred Equity Commitment Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, (g) agrees that none of the Financing Parties will have any liability to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates or representatives (in each case, other than Purchaser and its Affiliates) relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Preferred Equity Financing, the Preferred Equity Commitment

98

Letter or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the performance of any services thereunder, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise and (h) agrees that the Financing Parties are express third party beneficiaries of, and may enforce, any of the provisions of this Section 11.13 and Section 9.3(d) and Section 11.9, and that such provisions shall not be amended in any way adverse to the Financing Parties without the prior written consent of the Financing Parties; provided that for purposes of this Section 11.13, “Financing Parties” shall not include the entities that have committed to provide financing pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letters.

Section 11.14    No Admission. Nothing herein shall be deemed an admission by Purchaser, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, in any Action or proceeding by or on behalf of a third party, that Purchaser, Parent or any of their respective Affiliates, or that such third party or any of its Affiliates, is or is not in breach or violation of, or in default in, the performance or observance of any term or provisions of any Contract.

Section 11.15    Release.

(a)    Effective as of the Closing, each Seller, on behalf of itself and each Seller Related Party, hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and completely waives and releases and forever discharges, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, Purchaser and each Purchaser Related Party (such released Persons, the “Purchaser Releasees”), in each case from all demands, proceedings, causes of action, suits, accounts, covenants, Contracts, Losses and Liabilities whatsoever of every name and nature, both in Law and in equity, arising out of or related to events, circumstances, actions or omissions taken or not taken by the Purchaser Releasees, the Business or the Transferred Entities, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, managers, members, partners, stockholders, other equityholders, representatives or agents, in each case, to the extent based upon facts, circumstances, occurrences or omissions existing, occurring or arising at or prior to the Closing and relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby, the Transferred Entities or the Business, or any of their respective assets or liabilities; provided, that such release will not cover and therefore will not affect (i) any rights of the Sellers or any Seller Related Party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or any claims against any Purchaser Releasees for Actual Fraud or (ii) any right of any covered person under Section 5.19. No Seller shall make, and each such Seller shall not permit any Seller Related Party to make, any claim or demand, or commence any proceeding asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against any of the Purchaser Releasees with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to this Section 11.15(a).

(b)    Effective as of the Closing, Purchaser, on behalf of itself and each Purchaser Related Party, hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and completely waives and releases and forever discharges, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Sellers and each Seller Related Party (such released Persons, the “Parent Releasees”), in each case from all demands, proceedings, causes of action, suits, accounts, covenants, Contracts, Losses and Liabilities whatsoever of every name and nature, both in Law and in equity, arising out of or related to events, circumstances, actions or omissions taken or not taken by the Parent Releasees, the Business or the Transferred Entities, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, managers, members, partners, stockholders, other equityholders, representatives or

Purchaser shall not make, and shall not permit any Purchaser Related Party to make, any claim or demand, or commence any proceeding asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against any of the Parent Releasees with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to this Section 11.15(b).

Section 11.16    Counterparts.

Section 11.17    Guarantee.

(a)    In consideration for the Sellers agreeing to enter into this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which each is a party, the Purchaser Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees Purchaser’s obligations under this Agreement, as a primary obligation and not as a surety, the full and timely payment and performance of all covenants, obligations, liabilities and agreements of Purchaser under this Agreement, in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, but subject to the limitations, qualifications and other terms and conditions herein. This guarantee shall apply regardless of any amendments, variations, alterations, waivers or extensions to this Agreement whether or not the Purchaser Guarantor receives notice of the same and the Purchaser Guarantor irrevocably waives all need for notice of the same.

(b)    This guaranty is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collectability, and is to remain in force until all obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement shall have been performed or satisfied in full, subject to the limitations, qualifications and other terms and conditions herein, notwithstanding the winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or other incapacity of Purchaser or any change in the status, control or ownership of Purchaser. The liability of the Purchaser Guarantor under this Agreement shall not be released or diminished by any variation of the terms of this Agreement (whether or not agreed by the Purchaser Guarantor) (except to the extent such variation releases or diminishes the obligations or liability of Purchaser hereunder), any forbearance, neglect or delay in seeking performance of the obligations hereby imposed or any granting of time for such performance. The Purchaser Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand, protest, notice of acceptance, notice of any obligations incurred and all other notices of any kind, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium Law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Seller, any of its Affiliates or any other entity or other person primarily or secondarily liable with respect to any of the guaranteed obligations, and all suretyship defenses generally, provided that nothing herein

100

shall constitute a waiver of any rights or defenses of Purchaser or the Purchaser Guarantor under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. The guaranty provided by the Purchaser Guarantor pursuant to this Section 11.17 is an unconditional guarantee of payment and not of collection and the Purchaser Guarantor agrees that the Sellers shall not be required to prosecute collection, enforcement or other remedies against Purchaser or to enforce or resort to any rights or remedies pertaining thereto, before calling on the Purchaser Guarantor for payment or performance. The Purchaser Guarantor hereby waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of the obligations of the Purchaser Guarantor set forth in this Agreement and notice of or proof of reliance by the Sellers upon this Section 11.17 or acceptance of this Section 11.17. This guarantee is in addition to, without limiting and not in substitution for, any rights or security which the Sellers may now or after the date hereof have or hold for the payment obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement. If at any time payment under the Agreement is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned by the Sellers upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Purchaser or the Purchaser Guarantor or otherwise, the Purchaser Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated upon such restoration or return being made by the Sellers, all as though such payment had not been made. The Purchaser Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Section 11.17 are made knowingly in contemplation of such benefits.

(c)    the Purchaser Guarantor represents and warrants to the Seller as follows that:

(i)    It is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of Delaware.

(ii)    It has all necessary power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. No vote or other approval of the equityholders of the Purchaser Guarantor is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, whether by reason of applicable Law, the Organizational Documents of the Purchaser Guarantor, the rules or requirements of any securities exchange, or otherwise. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser Guarantor, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Sellers, will constitute, a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Purchaser Guarantor and/or its applicable Affiliates, enforceable against the Purchaser Guarantor and/or such Affiliates in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions. At the Closing, each Ancillary Agreement executed and delivered by the Purchaser Guarantor and/or each Affiliate of the Purchaser Guarantor that is a party thereto will be duly and validly executed and delivered by the Purchaser Guarantor and/or such Affiliate of the Purchaser Guarantor, and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of each Ancillary Agreement by the other parties to the Ancillary Agreements, will constitute, a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Purchaser Guarantor and/or such Affiliate of the Purchaser Guarantor, enforceable against them in accordance with the terms thereof, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.
