For the avoidance of doubt, no failure by Purchaser to object to, or comment on, any item set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement, any component thereof, or any documentation delivered in connection therewith, and no failure by the parties to resolve any objections that Purchaser may have regarding the foregoing, shall prejudice or bind Purchaser with respect to its calculations contained in the Closing Statement or the determination of the Final Purchase Price in accordance with Section 3.4.

17

(b)    Certain Closing Date Payments. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser shall:

(i)     pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as Seller shall designate in writing to Purchaser not less than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, an amount equal to (i) the Estimated Purchase Price, minus (ii) $75,000,000 (the “Working Capital Escrow Amount”) minus (iii) the Section 1.1(b) Escrow Amount, if any; and

(a)    Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Purchaser’s good faith calculation of the Cash as of the Adjustment Time, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital as of the Adjustment Time and Company Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing, in each case, together with reasonable supporting detail and documentation of each of the calculations set forth in the Closing Statement. The Closing Statement, and the calculations contained therein, shall be prepared on a basis consistent with the Company Accounting Principles.

(b)    During the 45 days immediately following Seller’s receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”), Seller and its Representatives shall be permitted to review the books and records of the Company Entities and the working papers of Purchaser and the Company Entities, and the independent accountants, if any, used in the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of Cash, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital, and Company Transaction Expenses, as well as to the relevant books and records of Purchaser (solely to the extent related to the Company Entities), and shall be provided with reasonable access during normal business hours to the current and former personnel and advisers of Purchaser and the Company who were involved in the preparation of the Closing Statement in order to ask questions and receive answers; provided, however, that the independent accountants of Purchaser and the Company Entities shall not be obligated to make any working papers available to Seller or its Representatives unless and until Seller and each applicable Representative has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants. Seller shall notify Purchaser in writing (the “Notice of Disagreement”) prior to the expiration of the Review Period if Seller disagrees with the Closing Statement or the Cash, Funded

18

Indebtedness, Working Capital or Company Transaction Expenses calculations set forth therein; provided, that the Notice of Disagreement may only include objections based on (i) the failure by Purchaser to prepare such statement or calculations in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, including Company Accounting Principles, or (ii) manifest errors in the computation of any amount set forth in the Closing Statement. The Notice of Disagreement shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such disagreement, the amounts involved and Seller’s determination of the amount of the Cash as of the Adjustment Time, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital as of the Adjustment Time and Company Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing, in each case, with reasonably detailed supporting documentation, calculations and schedules. If no Notice of Disagreement is received by Purchaser on or prior to the expiration date of the Review Period, then the Closing Statement and the Cash, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital and Company Transaction Expenses calculations set forth in the Closing Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller and shall become final, conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and Seller, and if a Notice of Disagreement is received by Purchaser on or prior to the expiration date of the Review Period, then any matters set forth in the Closing Statement which are not addressed in a Notice of Disagreement shall become final, conclusive and binding upon Purchaser and Seller.

(c)    During the 30 days immediately following the delivery of a Notice of Disagreement (the “Dispute Resolution Period”), Seller and Purchaser shall seek in good faith to resolve any disagreement that they may have with respect to the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement. If the parties cannot agree on the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement during the Dispute Resolution Period, the matters specified in the Notice of Disagreement, in each case solely to the extent not agreed between Seller and Purchaser, shall be submitted to RSM US LLP and if RSM US LLP is unwilling or unable to serve, a boutique specialty firm of international recognition with an active practice area focused on post-mergers and acquisitions purchase price dispute resolution mutually agreed by Purchaser and Seller in good faith (the “Independent Arbitrator”). Seller and Purchaser shall each enter into a customary engagement letter with the Independent Arbitrator. Seller and Purchaser shall furnish the Independent Arbitrator with a statement setting forth the items from the Notice of Disagreement which are still in dispute (the “Independent Arbitrator Dispute Notice”) and the position, including the specific amount proposed, of each of Seller and Purchaser with respect to each such disputed item. Within 60 days after the submission of such matters to the Independent Arbitrator, or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Independent Arbitrator, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, will, applying the Company Accounting Principles and the applicable definitions contained herein, make a determination in writing of the appropriate amount of each of the line items in the Closing Statement as to which there is disagreement as specified in the Independent Arbitrator Dispute Notice, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding on Seller and Purchaser, absent fraud, bad faith or manifest error. With respect to each disputed line item set forth in the Independent Arbitrator Dispute Notice, such determination, if not in accordance with the position of either Seller or Purchaser, shall not be in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated by Seller or Purchaser in the Independent Arbitrator Dispute Notice with respect to such disputed line item (and Purchaser shall not advocate any positions more adverse to Seller than the amounts reflected in the Closing Statement and Seller shall not advocate any positions more adverse to Purchaser than the amounts reflected in the Notice of Disagreement). For the avoidance of doubt, the Independent Arbitrator shall (i) not review any line items or make any determination with respect to any matter other than those matters in the Independent Arbitrator Dispute Notice that are in dispute, (ii) limit its review to whether the item in dispute is (A) calculated in accordance with this Agreement, including the Company Accounting Principles, or (B) manifest error, and (iii) make its determination based only upon the written submissions of Seller and Purchaser (i.e., not by independent review). The statement of each of Cash as of the Adjustment Time, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital as of the Adjustment Time and Company Transaction Expenses as of immediately prior to the Closing and the determination of the Cash, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital and Company Transaction

19

Expenses therefrom that are final, conclusive and binding on Seller and Purchaser, as determined either through agreement of Seller and Purchaser (deemed or otherwise) pursuant to Section 3.4(b) or through the determination of the Independent Arbitrator pursuant to this Section 3.4(c) are referred to herein as the “Final Cash,” “Final Funded Indebtedness,” “Final Working Capital Amount,” and “Final Company Transaction Expenses,” respectively. During the review by the Independent Arbitrator, Seller and Purchaser shall each make available to the Independent Arbitrator such party’s current and former personnel and such information, books, records and work papers, as may be reasonably required by the Independent Arbitrator to fulfill its obligations under this Section 3.4(c); provided, however, that the independent accountants of Seller or Purchaser shall not be obligated to make any working papers available to the Independent Arbitrator unless and until the Independent Arbitrator has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants.

(d)    The cost of the Independent Arbitrator’s review and determination pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be borne on a proportionate basis by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other, based on the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded in favor of each such Person bears to the amount actually contested by such Person. By way of illustration, if Purchaser’s calculations would have resulted in a $1,000,000 net payment to Purchaser, and Seller’s calculations would have resulted in a $1,000,000 net payment to Seller and the Independent Arbitrator’s final determination as adopted pursuant to Section 3.4(c) results in an aggregate net payment of $500,000 to Seller, then Purchaser and Seller shall pay 75% and 25%, respectively, of such fees and expenses.

(e)    The “Final Purchase Price” shall be calculated by recalculating the Estimated Purchase Price using the Final Cash in lieu of the Estimated Cash, using the Final Funded Indebtedness in lieu of the Estimated Funded Indebtedness, using the Final Working Capital Amount in lieu of the Estimated Working Capital Amount, using the Final Company Transaction Expenses in lieu of the Estimated Company Transaction Expenses, and otherwise using the components of Estimated Purchase Price as set forth in the definition of Estimated Purchase Price.

(i)    If the Final Purchase Price is less than the Estimated Purchase Price paid at the Closing (such amount, the “Deficiency Amount”), then Purchaser shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds promptly (but in any event within five Business Days after the Final Cash, Final Funded Indebtedness, Final Working Capital Amount and Final Company Transaction Expenses have been agreed upon (through deemed agreement or otherwise) or determined by the Independent Arbitrator, in either case in accordance with Section 3.4(c)), such Deficiency Amount from the Working Capital Escrow Amount held in the Escrow Account; provided, however, in no event shall Seller have personal liability for payment of such amount or any portion thereof, and Purchaser’s sole recourse with respect thereto shall be the Working Capital Escrow Amount held by the Escrow Agent.

(ii)    If the Final Purchase Price is greater than the Estimated Purchase Price paid at the Closing (such amount, the “Excess Amount”), then Purchaser shall promptly (but in any event within five Business Days after the Final Cash, Final Funded Indebtedness, Final Working Capital Amount and Final Company Transaction Expenses have been agreed (through deemed agreement or otherwise) or determined by the Independent Arbitrator, in either case in accordance with Section 3.4(c)) pay the Excess Amount to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account that Seller shall designate to Purchaser; provided, that Purchaser shall not be required to pay any amount in excess of the Working Capital Escrow Amount.

20

(iii)    If any funds remain in the Working Capital Escrow Account held in the Escrow Account after the payment of the Deficiency Amount (or upon payment of the Excess Amount if there is no Deficiency Amount) (such amount, the “Remaining Amount”), then Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the Remaining Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account or accounts that Seller shall designate to the Escrow Agent.

(iv)    Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to deliver promptly from the Escrow Account all funds to be delivered in accordance with this Section 3.4(e) and, if applicable, Section 1.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

(f)    Company Accounting Principles. Each of the Estimated Closing Statement (including the Estimated Cash, Estimated Funded Indebtedness, Estimated Working Capital and Estimated Company Transaction Expenses), the Closing Statement (including Cash, Funded Indebtedness, Working Capital and Company Transaction Expenses) and the Final Purchase Price shall be prepared and calculated in accordance with the definitions of such terms contained in this Agreement, the Company Accounting Principles, the Sample Calculation (with regard to the calculation of Working Capital) and Section 8.1.

(g)    Any amounts which become payable under this Section 3.4 will constitute an adjustment to the Estimated Purchase Price for Tax purposes, except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Section 3.5    Escrow. In accordance with Section 3.1(b)(ii), Purchaser shall deliver to Citibank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”), as agent to Purchaser and Seller, the Escrow Funds in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1, which Escrow Funds shall be held by the Escrow Agent in an escrow account (which may include a sub account for the Working Capital Escrow Amount and the Section 1.1(b) Escrow Amount, if any, comprising the Escrow Funds) (the “Escrow Account”) pursuant to the provisions of the Escrow Agreement and used for purposes of any payments payable to Purchaser or Seller pursuant to Section 3.4 and Section 1.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

Section 3.6    Contingent Consideration.

(a)    Following the Closing, Purchaser agrees to pay to Seller $69,000,000 (the “Contingent Consideration”) in the event that the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement, when measured in accordance with the immediately subsequent sentence, exceeds $138,000,000. For purposes of determining whether the Contingent Consideration is payable hereunder, the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement shall be measured at the nine-month anniversary of Closing and at the expiration of the Measurement Period; provided, however that if the Contingent Consideration is determined to be payable as a result of any such measurements, then in no event shall there be a subsequent measurement of the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement (and for the avoidance of doubt, the Contingent Consideration shall be payable no more than once). For purposes hereof, the “Measurement Period” shall be the period from the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) the date that is 18-months following the Closing Date (the “18-Month Anniversary”) and (ii) if the vacations business of the Company Entities is sold by Purchaser to a third party (other than an affiliate of Purchaser) prior to the 18-Month Anniversary, the date on which the closing of such sale occurs (such date, the “Vacations Sale Closing Date”). Purchaser shall pay the Contingent Consideration by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as Seller shall designate in writing to Purchaser within five Business Days of a final determination that such amount is payable in accordance with this Section 3.6 (by written agreement of Purchaser and Seller or determination of the Accounting Firm pursuant to Section 3.6(d)).

21

(b)    Until the end of the Measurement Period, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller within 30 days after each six month anniversary of the Closing Date, a trend report describing the Outstanding Credit Amount Month End Averages (and the calculation thereof) since the Closing.

(c)    During the Measurement Period, Purchaser shall (and shall cause the Company Entities to) make available to Seller during normal business hours the current and former personnel of Purchaser and the Company Entities who were involved in the preparation of the financial information provided pursuant to Section 3.6(b), and such information, books, records and work papers, as may be reasonably required by Seller to review the financial information provided pursuant to Section 3.6(b); provided, however, that independent accountants of Purchaser shall not be obligated to make any information, books, records or working papers available to Seller unless and until Seller has signed a customary confidentiality and hold harmless agreement relating to such access to information, books, records and working papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such independent accountants. Seller shall conduct such review in such a manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of Purchaser and the Company Entities, and in any event no more frequently than once every three (3) months.

(d)    Within thirty (30) days following the date of each measurement of the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement, Purchaser shall notify Seller of its determination as to whether or not the Contingent Consideration is payable in accordance with Section 3.6(a). If Purchaser determines that the Contingent Consideration is not payable for any measurement of the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement and Seller disagrees with Purchaser’s determination, Seller shall, within 30 days following the date of such notification from Purchaser, notify Purchaser in writing of such disagreement, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the basis of such disagreement. If such notice is timely delivered to Purchaser, then Purchaser and Seller shall negotiate in good faith to resolve their disagreement with respect to the computation of any Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement disputed by Seller. In the event that Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve all such disagreements within 20 days after Purchaser’s receipt of such notice, Purchaser and Seller shall submit such disagreement to RSM US LLP, or any other nationally recognized firm of certified public accountants as is mutually acceptable to Purchaser and Seller (the “Accounting Firm”) solely to determine whether the Outstanding Credit Amount Measurement as of the end of the Measurement Period has exceeded $138,000,000. The Accounting Firm shall have exclusive jurisdiction over, and resort to the Accounting Firm as provided in this Section 3.6(d) shall be the only recourse and remedy of Seller and Purchaser against one another with respect to, any disputes arising out of or relating to this Section 3.6. The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not as an arbitrator. Purchaser and Seller shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to resolve all such disagreements as soon as practicable, but in any event shall direct the Accounting Firm to render a determination within 60 days after the submission of such disagreement to the Accounting Firm.

The Financing Commitments have not been amended or modified prior to the date of this Agreement and, as of the date of this Agreement no such amendment or modification is contemplated (other than as set forth in the fee letter with respect to market flex rights and/or to add additional lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents and similar entities who had not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement, or to effectuate the exercise of other placement rights described therein), and as of the date of this Agreement, the Financing Commitments have not been terminated, withdrawn or rescinded in any respect.

Entities) prohibiting such disclosure and/or (iii) is independently developed following the Closing by Seller or on its behalf without Seller or any of its directors, officers or employees violating or breaching any of its obligations hereunder and without any use of, reliance on or reference to any Confidential Information (it being understood and agreed that none of the information described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) shall constitute “Confidential Information”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and its directors, officers and employees shall be permitted to disclose Confidential Information (x) as required by any Law or as required by any Governmental Entity to be disclosed (provided, that prior to any such required disclosure pursuant to this clause (x), to the extent permitted by Law or by such Governmental Entity, Seller shall give Purchaser notice of such disclosure and reasonably cooperate with Purchaser (at Purchaser’s sole expense) to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment with respect thereto, and in any event, only disclose such portion of such Confidential Information as may be required by such Law or by such Governmental Entity), or (y) if, and solely to the extent required, to comply with any applicable Tax (including preparation of Tax Returns), regulatory reporting, audit or other compliance obligations (including the rules and regulations of any applicable stock exchange); provided, that, Seller may provide Confidential Information to its directors, officers and employees and their legal counsel, accountants, financial advisors and other advisors and representatives, who need to know such information in connection with its reporting or other similar obligations in the ordinary course of business, in each case under customary obligations of confidentiality. For purposes of this Section 6.4(b), “Confidential Information” means any information related the Company Entities (for the avoidance of doubt, including any such information that may be provided to Seller pursuant to Section 3.4 or Section 3.6).

Section 6.5    Access to Information.

(a)    Prior to the Closing Date and subject to applicable Laws, Section 6.4 and any reasonable measures undertaken to mitigate risks associated with COVID-19 (including in response to the COVID-19 Measures), Purchaser shall be entitled, through its officers, employees, insurance underwriters, financing sources and other Representatives (including its legal advisors and accountants), to have such access to the properties, businesses and operations of the Company Entities and such examination of the books and records (including financial and accounting information) and Contracts of the Company Entities as Purchaser reasonably requests upon reasonable advance written notice in connection with Purchaser’s efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Any such access and examination shall be conducted during regular business hours and under circumstances that do not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the business and shall be subject to restrictions under applicable Law. The Company shall cause the officers, employees, consultants, agents, accountants, attorneys and other Representatives of the Company Entities to cooperate with Purchaser and Purchaser’s Representatives in connection with such access and examination, and Purchaser and its Representatives shall cooperate with the Company and its Representatives and shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any disruption to the business. Any disclosure during such investigation by Purchaser or its Representatives shall not constitute any enlargement or additional representation or warranty of Seller, the General Partner or the Company beyond those specifically set forth in Article IV. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no such access or examination shall be permitted to the extent that it (i) relates to interactions with other prospective buyers of the Company Entities or the negotiation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) would unreasonably disrupt the operations of the Company Entities or (iii) would require any of the Company Entities to disclose information that, in the reasonable judgment and good faith of outside counsel to the Company, is subject to attorney-client privilege or would reasonably be expected to conflict with any applicable Law or confidentiality obligations to which any of the Company Entities is bound (provided, that with respect to this clause (iii), the Company Entities shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with access to such information (or otherwise find alternative means to convey such information regarding the applicable matter as can be conveyed) to the fullest extent practicable without risking loss of privilege or protections under, or risking a violation of, such applicable Law or confidentiality obligation).

54

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, (i) without the written consent of Seller or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Purchaser shall not contact any customers of the Company Entities (other than in the ordinary course of business of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates with respect to matters not involving the Company Entities); provided, that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned with respect to any reasonable request by Purchaser related to the matters set forth on Section 6.5(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided, further that the Seller or the Company shall have the right to have a Representative present during any such contact in the event that Seller consents to such contact, and (ii) Purchaser shall have no right to perform invasive or subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of the Company Entities without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent may be withheld for any reason).

Section 6.6    Reasonable Best Efforts.

(b)    The parties shall cooperate with one another and use their respective reasonable best efforts to prepare all necessary documentation (including furnishing all information required under any applicable Competition Laws) to effect promptly all necessary Governmental Filings and to obtain all consents, waivers and approvals of any Governmental Entity necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereunder. Each party shall provide to the other parties copies of all substantive correspondence between it (or its advisors) and any Governmental Entity relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the matters described in this Section 6.6. Each party shall promptly inform the other parties of any substantive oral communication with, and provide copies of any written communications with, any Governmental Entity regarding any such filings or any such transaction, unless prohibited by reasonable request of any Governmental Entity. No party shall independently participate in any meeting or substantive conference call with any Governmental Entity in respect of any such filings, investigation or other inquiry without giving the other parties prior notice of the meeting or substantive conference call and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, the opportunity to attend or participate. To the extent permissible under applicable Law, the parties will consult and cooperate with one another in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any party relating to proceedings under the Competition Laws; provided that such materials may be redacted as necessary to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company or the Company’s consideration of other transactions or to otherwise comply with applicable Law. The parties may, as they deem advisable, designate any competitively sensitive materials provided to the other under this Section 6.6(b) or any other section of this Agreement as “legal counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such legal counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the party providing such materials.

55

(c)    Without limiting the generality of the undertakings pursuant to this Section 6.6, the parties shall provide or cause to be provided (including by their “Ultimate Parent Entities” as that term is defined in the HSR Act) as promptly as reasonably practicable to any Governmental Antitrust Entity information and documents requested by such Governmental Antitrust Entity or necessary, proper or advisable to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including filing any notification and report form and related material required under the HSR Act and any other filing under any Competition Law set forth on Section 7.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date hereof (but in any event no later than 10 Business Days after the date hereof with respect to the HSR Act and no later than 25 Business Days after the date hereof with respect to the filings identified on Section 7.1(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule), and thereafter to respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to any request for additional information or documentary material that may be made under the HSR Act and any other Competition Law regarding preacquisition notifications for the purpose of competition reviews. Neither Purchaser, on the one hand, or Seller, the General Partner or the Company, on the other hand, shall commit to or agree with any Governmental Entity to stay, toll or extend any applicable waiting period, or “pull and refile,” pursuant to 16 C.F.R. 803.12 the filing made under the HSR Act, or enter into a timing agreement, including any agreement to delay the consummation or not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, with any Governmental Entity without the prior written consent of the other party. Purchaser shall be responsible for all filing fees applicable to Purchaser under the HSR Act and under any such other Competition Laws applicable to Purchaser.

(d)    If any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any applicable Competition Law or if any Action is instituted by any Governmental Entity challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violative of any applicable Competition Law, Purchaser shall, at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser: (i) oppose or defend against any action to prevent or enjoin consummation of this Agreement (and the transactions contemplated hereby), and (ii) take such action as necessary to overturn any action by any Governmental Entity to prevent or enjoin consummation of this Agreement (and the transactions contemplated hereby), including by defending any Action brought by any Governmental Entity in order to avoid entry of, or to have vacated, overturned or terminated, including by appeal if necessary, in order to resolve any such objections or challenge as such Governmental Entity may have to such transactions under such applicable Law so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall, and shall cause the Company Entities to, cooperate with Purchaser in connection with the foregoing, and take such actions as are reasonably requested by Purchaser in furtherance thereof.

(e)    Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Parent and its Parent’s Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts and take any and all actions necessary to obtain any authorization, consent or approval of a Governmental Entity under the Competition Laws (including in connection with any Governmental Filings under the Competition Laws) necessary or advisable so as to enable the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby to occur as expeditiously as possible (and in any event, no later than the Outside Date) and to resolve, avoid or eliminate any impediments or objections, if any, that may be asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under or relating to any Competition Law, or to otherwise oppose, avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any order, decree, judgment, preliminary or permanent injunction that would otherwise have the effect of preventing, prohibiting, restricting, or delaying the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including: (i) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of, or holding separate of, any businesses, product lines,

56

rights, assets, properties, operations or services of Purchaser or its Parent or its Parent’s Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Company Entities) or any interest therein (including entering into customary ancillary agreements relating to any such sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of such businesses, product lines, rights, assets, properties, operations or services), or agree to any other structural or conduct remedy and (ii) otherwise taking or committing to take any actions that after the Closing Date would limit Purchaser’s or its Parent’s or its Parent’s Subsidiaries’ (including any of the Company Entities’), freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain or control, one or more of the businesses, product lines, rights, assets, properties, operation or services of Purchaser and its Affiliates or Subsidiaries (including the Company Entities) or interest therein, in each case as may be required in order to enable the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby to occur as expeditiously as possible (and in any event no later than the Outside Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Purchaser or its Parent or its Parent’s Subsidiaries, or the Company Entities, be required to take any of the foregoing actions (or omissions) in clauses (i) and (ii) above to the extent the taking of such action or omission is not conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing.

(f)    From the date of this Agreement until Closing, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall acquire or agree to acquire, by merging with or into or consolidating with, or by purchasing a substantial portion of the assets of or any equity in, or by any other manner, any assets or Person, if the execution and delivery of a definitive agreement relating to, or the consummation of, such acquisition would reasonably be expected to(individually or in the aggregate): (i) impose any material delay in obtaining, or materially increase the risk of not obtaining, consents of a Governmental Entity under any Competition Law necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under any Competition Law, (ii) materially increase the risk of a Governmental Entity seeking or entering a Governmental Order under a Competition Law prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such Governmental Order on appeal or otherwise, or (iv) otherwise prevent, materially impair or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

In the event of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, (x) each Indemnified Individual will be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from Purchaser, the General Partner or the Company to the extent required pursuant to the governing documents of the Company Entities in effect as of the date hereof, (y) none of Purchaser, the General Partner or the Company shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim (and in which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Individual hereunder) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of

57

such Indemnified Individual from all liability arising out of such action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim or such Indemnified Individual otherwise consents and (z) the General Partner and the Company shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of any such matter.

(b)    The certificate of incorporation and bylaws, limited partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement (or equivalent governing documents) of each Company Entity shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation of former or present directors, managers and officers than are set forth in the governing documents of such Persons as of the date hereof, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Closing in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any such individuals, unless such modification is required by Law.

(c)    Prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall purchase a “tail” insurance policy for a period of six years after the Closing, with reputable and financially sound carriers of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are no less advantageous than the current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company Entities as of immediately prior to the Closing with respect to claims arising from or related to facts or events that occurred at or before the Closing; provided that in no event will Purchaser be required to expend for each covered year an amount in excess of 300% of the annual premium for such insurance in the last full fiscal year (the “Maximum Premium”) and if such insurance can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, Purchaser will obtain the maximum insurance as can be obtained for the six-year period for a premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium. Purchaser agrees to take all necessary actions to maintain such policies in full force and effect and fulfill its obligations thereunder throughout such six-year period following the Closing.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether arising before, at or after the Closing) is made against any Indemnified Individual on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Closing Date, the provisions of this Section 6.7 shall continue in effect until the final disposition of such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation.

58

to the extent set forth in Section 6.8 of the Company Disclosure Schedule; provided that the Company shall reasonably consult with Purchaser prior to terminating a Contract in a manner which would reduce the income tax basis of Casablanca US Holdings, Inc., a Vacations Entity or an asset thereof by a material amount.

(b)    Prior to Closing, the parties shall reasonably cooperate to identify indebtedness of the type described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the definition of Indebtedness between Company Entities and, to the extent requested by Purchaser, use commercially reasonable efforts to extinguish such Indebtedness in a tax-efficient manner, provided that neither the Sellers nor the Company Entities shall be required to take an action hereunder that would adversely affect the Sellers or the Company Entities in any material respect (including an action that would give rise to any material cost that is not reimbursed by Purchaser).

If any Person who is a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the Department of Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may receive any payment(s) or benefit(s) that could constitute “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, then, to avoid the imposition of Taxes under Section 4999 of the Code or the loss of a deduction to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under Section 280G of the Code, in each case with respect to any payment or benefit arising in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, prior to the Closing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) secure and deliver to Purchaser from each such “disqualified individual” who has a right to any payments and/or benefits as a result of or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby that would constitute “parachute payments” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder) an agreement waiving such disqualified individual’s rights to some or all of such payments and/or benefits (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) applicable to such disqualified individual so that all remaining payments and/or benefits applicable to such disqualified individual shall not be deemed to be “excess parachute payments” that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code (a “Parachute Payment Waiver”) and (b) as soon as reasonably practicable following the delivery of the Parachute Payment Waivers (if any) to Purchaser, the Company shall

59

prepare and distribute to its limited partners a disclosure statement providing adequate disclosure of all potential parachute payments and benefits that may be received by such disqualified individual(s) and seek the approval of its limited partners in a manner that complies with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1 of the right of any “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code) who has executed a Parachute Payment Waiver to receive or retain his or her Waived 280G Benefits (the foregoing actions, a “280G Vote”). Purchaser shall provide to the Company in a timely manner all information and documents relating to compensation, if any, that Purchaser or its Affiliates agree, or have agreed, to pay that should be taken into account in making determinations as to the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code and which are necessary for the Company to comply with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code. Prior to the Closing, if a 280G Vote is required, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser evidence reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, (i) that a 280G Vote was solicited in conformance with Section 280G of the Code, and the requisite limited partner approval was obtained with respect to any payments and/or benefits that were subject to the Company limited partner vote (the “Section 280G Approval”) or (ii) that the Section 280G Approval was not obtained and as a consequence, pursuant to the Parachute Payment Waiver, such “parachute payments” shall not be made or provided. The form of the Parachute Payment Waiver, the disclosure statement, any other materials to be submitted to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Section 280G Approval and the calculations related to the foregoing shall be subject to advance review and approval by Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 6.12    Certain Consents. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself, that certain consents to the transactions contemplated hereby may be required from Governmental Entities or parties to Contracts or other agreements to which the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is a party and that such consents may have not been obtained as of the date hereof and may not be obtained prior to the Closing. Subject to compliance with Section 6.6, Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself, that except for the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(b) with respect to the approvals of the Governmental Entities required thereby and the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(c) in so far as either such condition relates to Section 4.4, no condition of Purchaser will be deemed not to be satisfied as a result of the failure to obtain any such consent or as a result of any such default, acceleration or termination or loss of right or any action commenced or threatened by or on behalf of any Person arising out of or relating to the failure to obtain any such consent or any such default, acceleration or termination or loss of right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Seller or the Company Entities or any of their respective Affiliates shall be obligated to make any payments or otherwise pay any consideration (other than the payment of administrative, processing or similar fees or charges) to any third party to obtain any applicable consent, waiver or approval.

Section 6.13    Acquisition of JV Shares. The parties acknowledge and agree that it is the intention of Purchaser to indirectly acquire from Seller, and for Seller to sell to Purchaser indirectly through the sale of the Acquired Securities, all of the issued and outstanding quotas (Stammanteile) and any similar securities or rights (derivative or otherwise) (the “JV Interests”) of AMResorts Europe Holdings GmbH, a company incorporated under the laws of Switzerland (the “JV Entity”), in connection with the Sale and that the Sale constitutes an “Approved Sale” within the meaning of the Shareholders Agreement of the JV Entity, dated June 30, 2021 (the “JV Agreement”). In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall cause CSH Casablanca Switzerland Holding GmbH, a Company Subsidiary (“CSH Casablanca”), to as promptly as practicable, exercise its drag-along rights pursuant to Section 8.2.2 of the JV Agreement in connection with the Sale on the terms and conditions set forth in the JV Agreement (the purchase of all of the JV Interests in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the JV Agreement by CSH, the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company, the “JV Purchase”)) and shall (at Seller’s sole cost and expense) use reasonable best efforts to consummate the JV Purchase. The Company shall, or shall cause CSH Casablanca to, (and, if applicable, following the Closing the Seller shall) provide Purchaser with drafts of any definitive documentation required to effect

60

the JV Purchase and consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided by Purchaser, and shall otherwise keep Purchaser reasonably apprised of negotiations for the JV Purchase. If the JV Purchase is not consummated prior to or at the Closing, Seller shall continue to use reasonable best efforts (at Seller’s sole cost and expense and subject to Section 6.13 of the Company Disclosure Schedule) to effect the JV Purchase until the two year anniversary of the Closing Date. During such time, Purchaser shall cause the Company Entities to provide reasonable cooperation with respect thereto, including providing any information reasonably requested by Seller and making personnel available to assist at reasonable times as reasonably requested by Seller. The definitive documents relating to the JV Purchase (whether consummated on or prior to Closing or after Closing) shall be reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and otherwise in accordance with Section 6.13 of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

62

(c)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing contained in this Agreement shall require any Company Entity or any of its or their respective officers, employees, advisors and other Representatives to (i) cooperate to the extent such cooperation would interfere unreasonably (in the judgment of the Company) with the business or operations of any Subsidiary, (ii) encumber any of the assets of any Subsidiary or otherwise be an issuer, guarantor or other obligor with respect to the Financing or any Take-Out Financing prior to the Closing Date, (iii) pay, or commit to pay, any commitment or other fee or make any other payment, in each case, in connection with the Financing or any Take-Out Financing prior to the Closing Date (unless subject to reimbursement by the Purchaser), (iv) take, or commit to take, any action that would reasonably be expected to conflict with, violate or result in a breach of or default any organizational document of any Subsidiary, any material Contract or any Law, (v) take, or commit to take, any action to authorize or approve, or execute or deliver any agreement, certificate or other document related to the Financing or any Take-Out Financing (other than any authorization letter contemplated by Section 6.14(a)(iii)) unless (A) such Person will continue to serve as a director or manager or officer, as the case may be, after the Closing Date and (B) the effectiveness of such authorization or approval or agreement, certificate or other document is expressly made contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing Date, (vi) incur, or commit to incur, or be required to reimburse, or commit to reimburse, any cost, expense, liability or obligation or provide or agree to provide any indemnity, in each case, in connection with the Financing or any Take-Out Financing prior to the Closing Date, unless expressly made contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing or subject to reimbursement by Purchaser, (vii) take any action prior to the Closing that could subject any director, officer, employee, agent, manager, consultant, advisor or other representative of any Company Entity to personal liability, (viii) provide access to or disclose information that the Company determines in good faith could jeopardize any attorney client privilege of, or conflict with any confidentiality obligations binding on, the Company, any Subsidiary or any of Affiliate of any Subsidiary or (iv) deliver any financial or other information that is not currently readily available, prepared or able to be generated, in the ordinary course of business of the Company at the time requested by Purchaser.

(d)    Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Company under this Section 6.14 are the sole obligations of the Company Entities directly relating to Financing and any Take-Out Financing and no other provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to expand or modify such obligation.

Section 6.15    Financing Efforts.    Purchaser shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause Parent and their respective Affiliates to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and consummate the Financing on the terms and conditions described in or contemplated by the Financing Commitments (including complying with any request exercising so-called “flex” provisions contained therein, to the extent required), including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Financing Commitments, (ii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions that are within Parent’s control to funding in the Financing Commitments and such definitive agreements to be entered into pursuant thereto, (iii) negotiate and enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on terms and conditions described in the Financing Commitments (including any “flex” provisions contained therein) prior to the Closing Date, (iv) enforce Parent’s rights under the Financing Commitments and (v) in the event that all conditions in the Financing Commitments have been satisfied, direct the applicable Financing Sources to fund on the Closing Date the Financing required to consummate the Sale and the other transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent requested by the Company from time to time,

63

Purchaser shall keep the Company informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing (or Alternate Financing) and Purchaser shall provide to the Company copies of all material documents related to the Financing (or Alternate Financing). In the event any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions (including any “flex” provisions) contemplated in the Financing Commitments for any reason (A) Purchaser shall promptly notify the Company in writing and (B) Purchaser shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to, cause Parent and their respective Affiliates to use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, alternative debt financing from alternative debt financing sources (the “Alternate Financing”) in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, which would not (i) involve terms and conditions that are materially less beneficial to Parent, (ii) involve any conditions to funding the Financing that are not contained in the Financing Commitments and (iii) reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, in the event that any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable, regardless of the reason therefor, but any bridge facilities contemplated by the Financing Commitments (or alternative bridge facilities obtained in accordance with this Section 6.13(a)) are available on the terms and conditions described in Financing Commitments (or any replacement thereof), then Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the proceeds of such bridge financing to be used in lieu of such contemplated Financing as promptly as practicable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall promptly notify the Company in writing (A) if Purchaser obtains knowledge that there exists any breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the Financing Commitments (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination), (B) of the receipt by Purchaser or its Affiliates of any written notice or other written communication from any lender or other debt financing source with respect to any actual breach, default, repudiation, cancellation or termination by any party to the Financing Commitments or (C) if for any reason Purchaser or any Affiliate of Purchaser believes in good faith that (I) there is (or there is reasonably likely to be) a dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Financing Commitments or any definitive document related to the Financing which would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or would make the funding of the Financing less likely or (II) there is a reasonable possibility that it will not be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Financing Commitments or the definitive documents related to the Financing. As soon as reasonably practicable, Purchaser shall provide any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C) of the immediately preceding sentence. None of Purchaser or its respective Affiliates shall (without the prior written consent of the Company) consent or agree to any amendment, replacement, supplement or modification to, or any waiver of any provision under, the Financing Commitments or the definitive agreements relating to the Financing if such amendment, replacement, supplement, modification or waiver (1) decreases the aggregate amount of the Financing to an amount that would be less than an amount that would be required to consummate the Sale and make the other payments required to be made by Purchaser or the Company hereunder or otherwise contemplated in connection herewith and repay or refinance the debt contemplated in this Agreement or the Financing Commitments (together with other reasonably available financial resources of Purchaser and its Affiliates), (2) imposes new or additional conditions in each case which would reasonably be expected to prevent, delay, or impair the availability of the Financing when required to be funded or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing, in each case on the Closing Date or (3) adversely impacts the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Financing Commitments. Purchaser shall, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause Parent and their respective Affiliates to, use their reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Financing Commitments until the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser may amend, replace, supplement and/or modify the Financing Commitments solely (1) to add lenders, lead arrangers,

64

bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Commitment Letter as of the date of this Agreement (including in replacement of a lender) or (2) to implement or exercise of any “flex” provisions provided in the fee letter as in effect as of the date hereof. Purchaser shall allow the Company to reasonably consult with the Financing Sources on the status of such financing (provided, however, that Purchaser shall have the right to have one or more representatives present during any such consultation) and provide the Company, upon reasonable request, with such information and documentation as shall be reasonably necessary to allow the Company to monitor the progress of such financing activities. The term “Commitment Letter” and “Financing Commitment” shall mean the Commitment Letter and Financing Commitments as amended, replaced, supplemented or modified by any such amendment, supplement or modification has been made in compliance with this Section 6.15, including any Alternate Financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, compliance by Purchaser with this Section 6.15 shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement whether or not the Financing is available and Purchaser acknowledges that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are not contingent on Purchaser’s ability to obtain the financing (or any alternative financing) or any specific term with respect to such financing.

Section 6.16    Exclusivity. Seller, the Company and the General Partner shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, cease and terminate immediately, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, all solicitations, initiations, encouragements, activities, discussions and/or negotiations with any Person (other than Purchaser and its Representatives with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to any proposed, potential or contemplated Alternative Transaction. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, Seller, the Company and the General Partner shall not, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (a) assist, solicit, initiate, or knowingly encourage the submission of any offer, inquiry, proposal or indication of interest relating to an Alternative Transaction, (b) furnish or cause to be furnished any confidential or proprietary information regarding the Acquired Securities or any Company Entity to, any Person (other than Purchaser and its Representatives) who Seller, the Company or General Partner (or their respective Affiliates or Representatives) knows or has a reasonable basis to believe is in the process of considering an Alternative Transaction, (c) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any offers, inquiries or indications of interest or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Alternative Transaction, (d) authorize, engage in, or enter into any agreement or understanding (whether or not binding) with respect to, any Alternative Transaction or (e) transfer any of the Acquired Interests to any other Person. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article IX, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser if any written indication of such interest, inquiry, proposal or offer relating to a possible Alternative Transaction is received by Seller or any Company Entity or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives from any person (other than Purchaser and its Representatives).

Section 6.17    Delivery of Subsidiary Information. As promptly as practical and in any event within 30 days after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser (a) true, correct and complete copies of the certificates of incorporation and bylaws, memorandums and articles of association, limited partnership agreements, limited liability company agreements or comparable governing documents for each of the Company Entities (other than the General Partner and the Company, which governing documents have been provided prior to the date of this Agreement) and (b) a true, correct and complete list of all directors, managers and officers of the Company Entities.

65

Section 6.18    Released Cash. Following the Closing until such time as Purchaser delivers the Closing Statement hereunder, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any cash collateral supporting any letter of credit of the Company Entities to be released. Any such released cash collateral (net of any reasonable out-of-pocket fees, costs or other expenses incurred by Purchaser in connection with such efforts) (the “Released Cash”) shall cease to be Restricted Cash hereunder, and shall instead be deemed to be Cash as of the Adjustment Time, and Purchaser shall include such amount as Cash in the Closing Statement.

The parties agree that, for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) income tax purposes, the Sale shall be treated as a sale of the assets of each Company Entity classified as an entity disregarded as separate from Seller and to report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the foregoing and not take any position during the course of any Tax audit or other proceeding that is inconsistent therewith; provided that this Section 8.1 shall not prevent Purchaser, Seller or their respective Affiliates from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity based upon or arising out of the inaccuracy of the representation in Section 4.12(m), and none of the Purchaser, Seller or their respective Affiliates shall be required to litigate before any court any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Entity in connection therewith.

Section 8.2    Purchase Price Allocation.

(a)    No later than 15 days following the determination of the Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall deliver a draft copy of the Valuation to Seller, which shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. Seller shall have the opportunity to reasonably consult with Purchaser and the accounting firm during its preparation of the Valuation, including the right to review and provide comments to such draft. Following any such consultation, but no later than 30 days following the

67

determination of the Final Purchase Price, Purchaser shall deliver the final Valuation to the Seller. The Valuation with respect to the DR Subsidiaries shall be consistent with the final allocation of purchase price to the DR Subsidiaries contemplated by Section 8.4(c).

(b)    The parties agree to determine the amount of and to allocate the total consideration, including the relief of any liabilities, realized by Seller pursuant to this Agreement for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes among the assets of each Company Entity classified for U.S. federal income tax purposes as an entity disregarded as separate from the Seller in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Valuation.

Section 8.4    Dominican Republic Tax Matters.

(a)    As soon as practicable after the date hereof, Purchaser shall file letters with the National Agency of Internal Revenue of the Dominican Republic (the “DGII”) seeking to relieve Purchaser of (i) joint and several liability for any of capital gains Tax imposed with respect to the Sale pursuant to Article 289, paragraph I of the Tax Code of the Dominican Republic (the “DR Capital Gains Tax”) and (ii) any obligation to deduct or withhold any amount hereunder in respect of DR Capital Gains Tax. Prior to filing such letters, Purchaser shall submit draft versions of such letters to Seller for Seller’s review and shall consider in good faith all comments submitted reasonably promptly by Seller.

(b)    The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the following no later than 30 days prior to the Closing Date (and the parties shall complete the following no later than 15 prior to the Closing Date):

(i)    Seller shall deliver an estimate of its Fiscal Cost in each DR Subsidiary, together with all schedules, workpapers and other information reasonably requested by Purchaser in connection therewith, and Purchaser and Seller shall agree on the amount of such Fiscal Cost;

(ii)    the parties shall agree on the allocable portion of the purchase price (as determined pursuant to the Tax Code of the Dominican Republic) to each DR Subsidiary, and shall execute an agreement (in a form that is mutually agreed between the parties) memorializing such allocation; and

(iii)    Following the delivery of the estimate described in clause (i) and the execution of the agreement described in clause (ii), Seller shall make a filing with the DGII to obtain a ruling setting forth the amount of DR Capital Gains Tax, if any, owing by Seller.

(c)    Following the filing described in Section 8.4(b), Seller shall initiate discussions with the DGII regarding the DR Capital Gains Tax and pursue such discussions in good faith until a resolution with the DGII is reached. In connection with such discussions, Seller shall present to the DGII the Fiscal Cost of and proposed purchase price allocation to each DR Entity and its good faith calculation of the aggregate amount, if any, of DR Capital Gains Tax. In the event the DGII disputes Seller’s position regarding the DR Capital Gains Tax, Seller shall in good faith negotiate and/or contest such dispute until a settlement with the DGII has been reached, or a final determination (including, if applicable, through an adjudication of such issue) has been made; provided, however, that Purchaser shall have the right to consent to any settlement (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and it being understood that it shall be unreasonable for Purchaser to withhold consent with the intent of seeking an allocation of purchase price to a DR Subsidiary in excess of the amount in Section 8.4(b) and the amount proposed by the DGII). Purchaser, the Company and any Subsidiary of the Company shall reasonably cooperate with Seller, and shall provide information within their control, in each case as reasonably requested by Seller in connection with such discussions or dispute resolution. Seller shall (i) keep Purchaser reasonably informed regarding the status of any discussions with the DGII in connection with this Section 8.4, (ii) allow Purchaser to participate, at Purchaser’s expense, in any meetings or discussions with the DGII and (iii) permit Purchaser to review all filings or material written responses to the DGII and shall consider in good faith all comments of Purchaser with respect thereto.

(d)    50% of the DR Capital Gains Tax shall be borne by Purchaser, up to a cap of $3,000,000, and the remainder shall be borne by Seller (as a Company Transaction Expense if such payment is determined prior to, and remains unpaid as of, Closing). Upon an agreement or settlement with the DGII or other final determination (including, if applicable through an adjudication of such issue) of the amount of DR Capital Gains Tax not treated as a Company Transaction Expense, if any, owed by Seller, Seller shall notify Purchaser of the amount thereof and shall pay, or cause to be paid, the full amount of such liability to the DGII, and Purchaser shall pay to the Seller the amount of the DR Capital Gains Tax for which it is responsible pursuant to this Section 8.4(d) reasonably promptly after its receipt of the such notice; provided, that if the parties reasonably determine that a different payment process would benefit one or more of the parties without adversely affecting any party, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to pay their respective shares of the DR Capital Gains Tax in such manner.

A failure by any party to consummate the Closing in accordance with this Agreement when such party is obligated to do so shall be deemed to be a Willful Breach.

Section 11.9    Company Disclosure Schedule.

(a)    The Company Disclosure Schedule and the information and disclosures contained therein relate to and qualify certain of the representations, warranties, covenants and obligations made by Seller, the General Partner and the Company in this Agreement and shall not be construed or otherwise deemed to constitute, any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation of Seller, the General Partner, the Company, the other Company Entities or any other Person except to the extent explicitly provided in this Agreement and shall not be deemed to expand in any way the scope or effect of any of such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations. No reference to or disclosure of any item or other matter in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be construed as an admission or indication, in and of itself, that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance, that such item has had a Material Adverse Effect, or that such item or other matter is required to be referred to or disclosed in the Company Disclosure Schedule. Such additional matters are set forth for informational purposes only. No reference in the Company Disclosure Schedule to any agreement or document, in and of itself, shall be construed as an admission or indication to any third party that such agreement or document is enforceable or currently in effect or that there are any obligations remaining to be performed or any rights that may be exercised under such agreement or document. No disclosure in the Company Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation of, or non-compliance with, any agreement, law or regulation, in and of itself, shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach, violation or non-compliance exists or has actually occurred, and nothing in the Company Disclosure Schedule shall constitute an admission of any liability or obligation of any Person to any other Person or shall confer or give any third party any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or any other right whatsoever. Neither the specification of any item or matter in any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement nor the inclusion of any specific item in the Company Disclosure Schedule is, in and of itself, intended to imply that such item or matter, or other items or matters, are or are not in the ordinary course of business, and no party shall use the fact of the setting forth or the inclusion of any such item or matter in any dispute or controversy between the parties as to whether any obligation, item or matter not described in this Agreement or included in the Company Disclosure Schedule is or is not in the ordinary course of business for purposes of this Agreement. The Company Disclosure Schedule is arranged in sections corresponding to the Sections in this Agreement and any items or matters set forth in one section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to and qualify the Section or subsection of this Agreement to which it corresponds and each other Section or subsection of this Agreement to the extent the relevance of such

77

items or matters to such other Section or subsection of this Agreement is reasonably apparent on its face. The inclusion of any cross-references to any section or subsection of the Company Disclosure Schedule, or the failure to include such cross-references, shall not be deemed to mean that the relevance of any disclosure is not reasonably apparent for the purposes of the immediately preceding sentence. The headings contained in the Company Disclosure Schedule are included for convenience and reference only, and are not intended to limit the effect of the disclosures contained in the Company Disclosure Schedule or to expand, modify or influence the scope of the information required to be disclosed in the Company Disclosure Schedule or the interpretation of this Agreement.

(b)    The information contained in the Company Disclosure Schedule is confidential, proprietary information of Seller, the General Partner, the Company and the other Company Entities prior to the Closing, and prior to Closing Purchaser shall be obligated to maintain and protect such confidential information pursuant to this Agreement. In disclosing the information in the Company Disclosure Schedule, Seller, the General Partner and the Company expressly do not waive any attorney-client privilege or other similar privilege associated with such information or any protection afforded by the work-product doctrine or other similar doctrine with respect to any of the matters disclosed or discussed herein.

Section 11.10    Waiver and Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a mutual written agreement executed and delivered by Seller and Purchaser. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the provisions relating to the Financing Sources set forth in Sections 6.14, 11.1, 11.2(c), this 11.10, 11.12 and 11.15 (and the defined terms used therein or any other provision of this Agreement the amendment or waiver of which has the effect of modifying such provision) may not be amended or waived in a manner materially adverse to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

Section 11.11    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by means of facsimile or email in Portable Document Format, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.12    Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, only the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except as set forth in Section 6.7, Section 10.3, Section 11.15 and Section 11.16, each of which rights are hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed to by the parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the parties expressly confirm their agreement that the Financing Sources shall be entitled to rely on and enforce the provisions of Section 6.14, Section 11.10, Section 11.1, Section 11.2(c), Section 11.15 and this Section 11.12 and shall be express third party beneficiaries with respect to each such section.

Section 11.13    Remedies. The parties 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 do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the Sale) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. Accordingly, the parties acknowledge and hereby agree that, subject to the terms of this Section 11.13, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by Seller, the General Partner, or the

78

Company, on one hand, or Purchaser, on the other hand, of any of their respective covenants or obligations set forth in this Agreement, the other party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement by the other (as applicable), and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants and obligations of the other (as applicable) under this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or inadequacy of legal remedy and without bond or other security being required. The parties hereby further acknowledge and agree that prior to the Closing, each party shall be entitled to seek specific performance to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of, and to prevent or cure breaches of this Agreement, including Section 6.6 and to cause the other party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including to effect the Closing in accordance with Section 2.2, on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement. The remedies available to each party pursuant to this Section 11.13 shall be in addition to any other remedy to which it is entitled at law or in equity, and the election to pursue an injunction or specific performance shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit the other party from seeking to obtain such other remedies. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties further agree that (i) by seeking the equitable remedies provided for in this Section 11.13, a party shall not in any respect waive its right to seek at any time any other form of relief that may be available to a party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in the event that this Agreement has been terminated or in the event that the equitable remedies provided for in this Section 11.13 are not available or otherwise are not granted, and (ii) nothing set forth in this Section 11.13 shall require any party hereto to institute any proceeding for (or limit any party’s right to institute any proceeding for) specific performance under this Section 11.13 prior or as a condition to exercising any termination right under Article IX (and pursuing monetary damages after such termination to the extent permitted in accordance with this Agreement), nor shall the commencement of any legal proceeding pursuant to this Section 11.13 or anything set forth in this Section 11.13 restrict or limit any party’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the terms of Article IX or pursue any other remedies under this Agreement.

Section 11.14    Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Law, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction such that the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

Section 11.15    No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement or any document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, each party covenants, agrees and acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by Law, no Person other than the parties hereto, has any Liabilities, obligations, commitments (whether known or unknown or whether contingent or otherwise) hereunder, and that, notwithstanding that the other parties may be partnerships or limited liability companies, no party has a right of recovery under this Agreement, or any claim based on such Liabilities, obligations or commitments against, and no personal liability shall attach to, the former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, option holders, warrant holders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, managers, Representatives or general or limited partners of any party or any former, current or future direct or indirect equity holder, option holder, warrant holder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, Affiliate, Representative or agent of any of the foregoing (collectively, but not including any party hereto, each a “Non-Recourse Party”), through a party hereto or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of a party against any Non-Recourse Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute,

79

regulation, tort, Contract, Law, or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no claim will be brought or maintained by a party or any Seller Party or Purchaser Related Party, as the case may be, or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns against any Non-Recourse Party that is not otherwise expressly identified as a party to this Agreement, and no recourse will be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach or nonperformance of any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement, any exhibit or schedule hereto, any other document contemplated hereby or any certificate, instrument, opinion, agreement or other document delivered hereunder, except as set forth in such other Transaction Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereby agree that (i) no Financing Source shall have any liability hereunder (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute) for any claims, causes of action, obligations or losses arising under, out of, in connection with or related in any manner to this Agreement or based on, in respect of or by reason of this Agreement or its negotiation, execution, performance or breach (provided that nothing in this Section 11.15 shall limit the liability or obligations of the Financing Sources under the applicable Financing Commitments or the documents governing any Financing provided by any Financing Source to Parent), (ii) any interpretation of the applicable Financing Commitments will be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York and (iii) only Parent (including its permitted successors and assigns under the applicable Financing Commitment) and the other parties thereto at their own direction shall be permitted to bring any claim against a Financing Source for failing to satisfy any obligation to fund the Financing pursuant to the terms of the applicable Financing Commitments. This Section 11.15 shall, with respect to the matters referenced herein, supersede any provision of this Agreement to the contrary.

Section 11.16    Representation. Purchaser agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its directors, officers, managers, employees and Affiliates, that, following the Closing, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP may serve as counsel to the Seller and its Affiliates in connection with any matters related to this Agreement and the contemplated transactions, including any litigation, claim or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the contemplated transactions notwithstanding any representation by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP prior to the Closing Date of the Company. Purchaser, the General Partner and the Company hereby (a) waive any claim they have or may have that Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (b) agree that, in the event that a dispute arises either before or after the Closing between Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, then Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP may represent Seller or its Affiliates in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to Purchaser, the General Partner, the Company or the other Company Entities and even though Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP may have represented the General Partner, the Company or the other Company Entities in a matter substantially related to such dispute. Purchaser, the General Partner and the Company also further agree that, as to all communications prior to Closing among Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP and the General Partner, the Company, the other Company Entities, Seller, Seller’s Affiliates and Representatives with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence belongs to Seller and its Affiliates and may be controlled by Seller and its Affiliates and shall not pass to or be claimed by Purchaser, the General Partner, the Company or the other Company Entities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a dispute arises between Purchaser, the General Partner, the Company and a third party other than a party to this Agreement after the Closing, the General Partner or the Company may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP to such third party; provided, however, that neither the General Partner nor the Company may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller.

Section 11.17    Parent Guarantee

(a)    Parent hereby fully guarantees the due, prompt and full performance, payment and discharge when due of all of the covenants, obligations, agreements and undertakings, including any payment obligations, of Purchaser under this Agreement (such obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Whenever this Agreement requires Purchaser to take any action or refrain from taking any action, such requirement shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of Parent to cause Purchaser to take such action or refrain from taking such action. The Guaranteed Obligations are primary, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and such obligations shall continue in full force and effect until the payment and performance, as applicable, of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and are not conditioned upon any event or contingency or upon any attempt first to obtain payment from Purchaser under this Agreement, or pursuit of any other right or remedy against Purchaser through the commencement of an Action or otherwise.

(b)    With respect to its obligations hereunder, Parent expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar applicable Law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Seller, and all suretyship defenses generally.

(c)    Parent acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under this Section 11.17 shall continue not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by (i) the failure or delay on the part of Seller to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Purchaser; (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement (other than this Section 11.17, as applicable); (iii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Purchaser; (iv) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar Proceeding affecting Purchaser; (v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which Parent may have at any time against Seller, whether in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise; or (vi) the adequacy of any means Seller may have of obtaining payment or performance related to the Guaranteed Obligations.

(d)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Parent’s obligations under this Section 11.17 shall terminate immediately (i) upon the Closing (including payment in full of the Estimated Purchase Price and the amounts contemplated by Section 3.2 and Section 3.3) and (ii) with respect to any Guaranteed Obligation, upon the discharge in full of such Guaranteed Obligation.

(e)    Parent is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and has the requisite corporate power and authority to own or lease its assets and to conduct its business in all material respects as it is now being conducted. The execution, delivery and performance by Parent of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within the corporate powers of Parent and have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of Parent. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Parent and (assuming the due and valid execution and delivery of this Agreement by the other parties hereto) constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions. Parent hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser that (i) it has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the obligations set forth in this Section 11.17 and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene any provision of Parent’s organizational documents or any applicable Laws binding on Parent or its assets; and (ii) all consents necessary for the due execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Parent (other than (A) the filings under the HSR Act, (B) any other filing under any competition Law set forth on Section 4.4(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, and (C) the Governmental Filings set forth on Section 4.4(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule) have been obtained and all conditions

81

thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Entity is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Section 11.17. This Section 11.17 shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Parent and shall inure to the benefit of Purchaser and its successors and assigns. In the event that Parent or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and other assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Parent shall cause such Person to assume the obligations set forth in this Section 11.17, including by operation of law.
