Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Share Purchase Agreement

On June 5, 2021, Colony Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), through Colony Capital Operating Company, LLC and certain other of its subsidiaries (the "Sellers"), entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Fortress Investment Group LLC through its affiliate, CF Troy Holdings, LLC (the "Buyer") under which the Buyer has agreed to buy the bulk of the Company's OED portfolio of real estate assets for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $535,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”) subject to customary adjustments (the "OED Portfolio Sale") and such sale being subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement (the "Acquisition"). The Purchase Price will also be adjusted if consents with respect to certain assets cannot be obtained.

Pursuant to the Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, at the closing of the Acquisition, the Buyer will acquire, directly or indirectly through its subsidiaries, those interests in the specific Company's portfolio assets, and certain general partner and management rights relating to those portfolio assets.

The parties’ obligations to consummate the Acquisition are subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, filings and third-party consents (including Colony fund level consents). There is no financing condition to closing the Acquisition. The parties to the Agreement have each made customary representations and warranties and covenants in the Agreement.

Each of the Sellers and the Buyer may terminate the Agreement if (i) the parties agree by mutual written consent to terminate the Agreement, (ii) any governmental entity having competent jurisdiction has issued a final, non-appealable order, decree, ruling or injunction (other than a temporary restraining order) or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, (iii) the closing has not occurred on or prior to December 31, 2021 (subject to extension to March 31, 2022 if the parties are still in good faith pursuing outstanding required consents listed in the Agreement), (iv) the other party has breached its representations and warranties or covenants, subject to customary materiality qualifications and abilities to cure and (v) the allocable amount attributable to certain interests excluded from the transaction at the Sellers’ option is greater than 35% of the Purchase Price. Upon valid termination of the Agreement, within three business days after such termination, the parties will cause the escrow agent to return to Buyer in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to $40,000,000 (such amount, as may be modified pursuant to the terms of the escrow agreement, the "Escrow Amount"). In the Event the Agreement is terminated by the Sellers as a result of breach of the Buyer's representations and warranties and covenants, within three business days after such termination, the parties will cause the escrow agent to pay to the Sellers in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds an amount equal to the Escrow Amount.

The Company expects to close the OED Portfolio Sale in the fourth quarter of 2021; however, there is no assurance that the transaction will close in the timeframe contemplated or on the terms anticipated, if at all.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is being filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

together with reasonably detailed supporting calculations, information and documentation, Buyer’s good faith calculation of the Closing Cash Consideration (and each component thereof).

If Buyer and Sellers are unable to resolve all disagreements raised by Sellers pursuant to Section 2.5(b) within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery to Buyer of Sellers’ written notice of such disagreement, then such disagreements will be submitted for final and binding resolution to an independent and internationally recognized accounting firm as mutually agreed between the Parties (the “Accounting Arbitrator”).

The written decision of the Accounting Arbitrator on the matters will be final and binding on the Parties. The Accounting Arbitrator’s fees and any costs properly incurred in arriving at the determination (including any fees and costs of any advisers appointed by the Accounting Arbitrator) shall be borne by the Parties in inverse proportion to their respective gain and loss positions relative to the Disputed Items. For example, if Sellers challenge the calculation a Disputed Item by an amount of $100,000, but the Accounting Arbitrator determines that Sellers have a valid claim for only $60,000, then Buyer shall bear sixty percent (60%) of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator and Sellers shall bear the other forty percent (40%) of such fees and expenses. Other than such fees and expenses of the Accounting Arbitrator, each of

Buyer and Sellers will be responsible for their own costs and expenses incurred in connection with any actions taken pursuant to this Section 2.5.

Each Party shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Closing Cash Consideration or Final Closing Cash Consideration or other amount otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as such Party is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law; provided that, such Party shall use reasonable efforts to provide the Persons to which the applicable payment is to be made with notice at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of such payment of any proposed withholding and the Parties shall cooperate and use their reasonable efforts to eliminate or reduce any such withholding obligation.

Concurrently therewith, each Existing GP shall assign to a New GP its GP Interest (representing the remainder of its interest in the Fund Vehicle that is not converted into a special limited partner interest and the entirety of such Existing GP’s right to control the business, operations and affairs of such Fund Vehicle) by entering into an assignment and assumption agreement with the applicable New GP. The Existing GP, in its capacity as a special limited partner, shall thereafter continue to hold the Capital Commitments and entitlements to receive carried interest on behalf of the Colony Management Participants that it held prior to Closing.

(iii) Each Existing Manager shall assign its Management Rights to Buyer or its designated Affiliate (a “New Manager”) by entering into an assignment and assumption agreement with the New Manager in respect of each Existing Fund Management Agreement; provided that if Buyer elects to have Sellers provide advisory services pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement, then each Existing Manager which is an AIFM shall, during such time as it is providing advisory services pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement,

provide the service of acting as the AIFM in respect of the Fund Vehicles for which it is providing such advisory services and for which it had acted as an AIFM prior to Closing. In their capacity as such, the applicable Existing Manager(s) shall be responsible for providing risk management, administrative and such other services as may be required pursuant to the Directive, provided that the New Manager shall be responsible for portfolio management, including decisions pertaining to the acquisition or disposition of any investments by such Fund Vehicles, subject to the oversight of the AIFM to the extent required by the Directive. Upon the termination of the Transition Services Agreement, CCOC shall cause such Existing Manager to terminate the provision of such services.

(v) The New GPs and New Managers will assume the obligations and Liabilities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Remaining Capital Commitments not attributable to Colony Management Participants) of the Existing GPs and Existing Managers with respect to the GP Interests and Management Rights transferred at Closing; provided that the New GPs and New Managers shall not assume and shall not be responsible for, and the Existing GPs and Existing Managers shall remain responsible for any Excluded Obligations.

(vi) The New GP (and New Manager, if applicable) shall execute an instrument of undertaking and assumption, in form and substance mutually agreed by the Existing GP and the New GP, with respect to the Existing Side Letters of the Limited Partners, whereby the New GP agrees to undertake and assume the obligations set forth therein (subject to the terms and conditions, and as more fully set forth, in each such instrument of undertaking and assumption and excluding the Excluded Obligations). Subject to any restrictions of the Existing Side Letters under applicable Law or pursuant to such Existing Side Letters, the Existing Side Letters may be amended as agreed by and among the New GP and the Limited Partner, each as applicable; provided that the consent of the Existing GP shall be required in respect of any amendments which would impose obligations on, create Liabilities of or materially adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Existing GP or Existing Manager.

(vii) To the extent a Fund Vehicle has not distributed carried interest or made tax distributions or other similar advances in respect of distributions of carried interest prior to the Closing Date, all guarantees by Sellers (or their Affiliates, but not any Colony Management Participants) of carried interest clawback obligations in respect of such Fund Vehicles shall be terminated.

(viii) Buyer or an Affiliate thereof reasonably acceptable to Sellers shall execute and deliver a guarantee for the benefit of each of the Fund Vehicles and each of their

Limited Partners to the extent that such a guarantee has been provided by Sellers (or their Affiliates, but not any Colony Management Participants) as required under the applicable Fund Governance Documents, in the form(s) attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Fortress Clawback Guarantee”).

Sellers and their Affiliates shall cooperate with Buyer in order to (i) introduce and facilitate communication between Buyer and any relevant third party Person in connection with consummating the transactions contemplated hereby upon Buyer’s reasonable request, and (ii) provide reasonable access, to the extent available to Sellers and except as restricted by applicable Law, to such information as Buyer reasonably requires to prepare accordingly for operation of the transferred Assets in the ordinary course following the Closing.

(b) Each of the Parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in the efforts to obtain any third-party consents, including from Sellers’ limited partners; provided that, no Party will be obligated to make any payment or offer any concession in order to obtain any such consent, except as set forth in Section 12.3 of the Disclosure Schedule.

For the avoidance of any doubt, (i) the sale or recapitalization of any of the Portfolio Investments, and (ii) the Fortress Loan, shall not be deemed a violation of Sellers’ exclusivity obligation; provided that any proceeds thereof are credited against the Purchase Price to the extent provided on Section 2.2 of the Disclosure Schedule.

Section 7.8. Confidentiality.

(a) During the period from the date hereof until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, each Party shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates, to maintain strictly confidential and not disclose to any other Person (other than its Representatives that agree to maintain such information in confidence in accordance with this Section 7.8(a), with any breach of such obligation being deemed a breach by, as applicable, Buyer or the applicable Seller under this Agreement) any Confidential Information in connection with this Agreement and other agreements in connection herewith and the terms hereof and thereof or relating to Sellers, Buyer, and their respective Subsidiaries, including the Colony Fund Entities, the Transferred Entities and the Fund Vehicles) or any Confidential Information obtained by Sellers or their Affiliates during the period of their ownership of the Interests; provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the disclosure by Buyer, any Seller or any of their Affiliates of any

Confidential Information (i) to the extent required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange (provided that, to the extent permitted by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange, as applicable, Buyer gives Sellers, or such Seller gives Buyer, written notice of such disclosure and reasonably cooperate with any efforts to seek confidential treatment of any such information required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any stock exchange to be disclosed) or duly requested by a Governmental Entity, (ii) in a dispute brought by any Party in pursuit of its rights or in the exercise of its remedies under this Agreement, (iii) to the extent that such information can be shown to have come within the public domain through no fault of any Party in violation hereof, (iv) to the extent required in order to comply with reporting obligations to their limited partners or other direct or indirect investors who have agreed to keep such information confidential, (v) with CLNC, and (vi) among such Sellers. This Section 7.8(a) shall not apply to any public announcement made in accordance with Section 12.8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement, upon the date hereof, in no event shall either this Section 7.8(a) or any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement limit disclosure by Buyer, Sellers, or their respective Affiliates of ordinary course communications regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby to its existing or prospective general and limited partners, equityholders, members, managers, investors, financing sources, accountants and consultants of any Affiliates of such Person, including disclosure on their websites and in their marketing materials, and from and after the Closing nothing herein shall limit or restrict the ability of Buyer or Sellers to conduct their operations and business.

(b) As of the date hereof, CCOC and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the Confidentiality Agreement shall be terminated, without further action by any of the Parties hereto or thereto, solely to the extent related to the confidentiality provisions contained therein which shall have no further force and effect and shall be superseded by Section 7.8(a) and the remainder of the obligations set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement are hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference and made a part of this Agreement and will survive the execution of this Agreement in accordance with its terms; provided that if a conflict arises between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement, then the provisions of this Agreement will control.

Section 7.9. Intercompany Obligations and Agreements. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between Buyer and Sellers, on or prior to the Closing, all intercompany Contracts, accounts, loans, guarantees, advances, payables (including any payable accounts with negative balance), and receivables, whether or not currently due and payable between Sellers or any of their partners or Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities), on the one hand, and any Transferred Entity, on the other hand as set forth on Section 7.9 of the Disclosure Schedule as of the date of delivery pursuant to Section 7.20(g), and all the Affiliate Agreements (collectively, the “Intercompany Obligations and Agreements”), shall be settled in full and all commitments with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been terminated, and in each case, Sellers and their respective Affiliates, and Buyer and its Affiliates, including the Transferred Entities after the Closing, shall be fully released from all Liability with respect to such Intercompany Obligations and Agreements; provided that, for purposes hereof, any obligations arising under this Agreement or any Transaction Document (including, for the avoidance of any doubt, under the Transition Services Agreement) shall not constitute Intercompany Obligations and Agreements.

Section 7.10. Use of Name.

(a) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, as among the Parties, all right, title and interest in and to the Seller Trademarks are owned exclusively by Sellers or their Affiliates. Except as provided in this Section 7.10, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall not use, and shall cause the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries not to use, the names “Colony Capital,” “Colony,” “CDCF,” or the “Colony” logo (“Seller Names”) or any other names, trademarks, service marks, trade names, business names, corporate names, domain names, logos, trade dress or other source indicators that contain, comprise, or are derived from, confusingly similar to or dilutive of such Seller Names (collectively, the “Seller Trademarks”). In furtherance of the foregoing, except as provided herein, promptly, and in any event within ninety (90) days following the Closing, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Transferred Entities and their Subsidiaries to, remove, strike over or otherwise obliterate all Seller Trademarks from all assets and other materials owned by the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries, including any business cards, schedules, stationery, packaging materials, displays, signs, invoices, receipts, sales, marketing and promotional materials, product, training and service literature and materials, manuals, forms, websites, email, computer software and other materials and systems (“Marked Materials”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.10 shall preclude the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries from making any reference to the Seller Trademarks as permitted by applicable Law or in historical, tax, employment or similar records or for purposes of prospectus and similar disclosures as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to describe the historical relationship of the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries with Sellers and their Affiliates. Neither Buyer, nor the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries, shall use, seek to register, register or authorize others to use, seek to register or register any Seller Trademark or any other Intellectual Property confusingly similar thereto or dilutive thereof anywhere in the world, or challenge Sellers’ right to use, seek to register or register any Seller Trademark anywhere in the world.

(b) Promptly after the Closing Date, but no later than thirty (30) days thereafter, Buyer shall cause each of the applicable Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries to file amended articles of incorporation (or equivalent organizational documents) with the appropriate Governmental Entities changing its corporate name, “doing business as” name, trade name, and any other similar corporate identifier (each, a “Company Name”) to a Company Name that does not contain any Seller Trademark, and to provide Sellers with any additional documentation that Sellers may reasonably request to evidence those filings. On and after the Closing Date, Buyer and the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries shall not represent that it is (or they are), or otherwise hold itself (or their selves) out as being, affiliated with any Seller or any of their Affiliates.

(c) To the extent the Seller Trademarks are used by the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries on Marked Materials prior to the Closing, the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries may use existing Marked Materials after the Closing for a transitional period not to exceed ninety (90) days solely in a manner consistent with Transferred Entities’, Fund Vehicles’, and their Subsidiaries’ uses thereof immediately prior to the Closing; provided that (i) none of the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their

Subsidiaries shall use the Seller Trademarks in any other manner during the time thereafter, and (ii) none of the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries shall reorder any Marked Materials after the Closing Date. The foregoing permitted use is subject to (A) compliance by the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries with the quality control requirements and guidelines in effect for the Seller Trademarks as of the Closing Date that are provided to Buyer in writing, and (B) to the extent reasonably practicable, the placement of a mutually agreed upon disclaimer on such materials used by the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries identifying in a readily observable manner that the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries are no longer an Affiliate of any Seller.

(d) Sellers acknowledge and agree that Buyer intends to replace the Seller Names with the name “DC Value Recovery” (the “New Name”) and that Buyer has the right to replace the Seller Names with New Name or any other name that Buyer may select that complies with the terms set forth in this Section 7.10. Sellers further acknowledge and agree that, as among the Parties, all right, title and interest in and to the names, trademarks, service marks, trade names, business names, corporate names, domain names, logos, trade dress or other source indicators containing the phrase “DC Value Recovery” (together, the “New Marks,” and each, a “New Mark”) shall be owned exclusively by Buyer or the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles or their Subsidiaries as of and after the Closing Date. Sellers further acknowledge and agree that no Seller has any right, title or interest in the New Marks and none of Sellers nor their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall use, seek to register, register or authorize others to use, seek to register or register any New Mark or any other Intellectual Property confusingly similar thereto or dilutive thereof anywhere in the world, or challenge Buyer’s right to use, seek to register or register any New Mark anywhere in the world.

Section 7.11. Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Buyer agrees that all rights to exculpation and indemnification for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Closing, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Closing (including any matters arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby), now existing in favor of the current or former directors and officers, managers, employees, or agents (“D&O Indemnified Parties”), as the case may be, of either the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, or their Subsidiaries as provided in their respective Organizational Documents as in effect on the date of this Agreement or in any Contract set forth on Section 7.11(a) of the Disclosure Schedule as of the date of delivery pursuant to Section 7.20(h) and subject to the limits therein shall survive the Closing and shall continue in full force and effect. Buyer shall cause the Transferred Entities’, Fund Vehicles’, and their Subsidiaries’ certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or other Organizational Documents to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitation of directors and officers that are no less favorable to the D&O Indemnified Parties than those set forth in the Transferred Entities’, Fund Vehicles’, and their Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents and Fund Governance Documents, as the case may be, as of the Closing Date, which provisions thereafter will not be amended, repealed, or otherwise modified in any manner that would disproportionately and adversely affect the rights thereunder of a D&O Indemnified Party as opposed to the other D&O Indemnified Parties without the consent of such D&O Indemnified Party adversely affected thereby.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.11(a), to the fullest extent that any Transferred Entity or Fund Vehicle would be permitted by applicable Law to do so and

subject to the terms and limitations set forth as the date hereof in the Transferred Entities’, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents and Fund Governance Documents, as the case may be, Buyer shall, to the extent within its control, cause the Transferred Entities and their respective Subsidiaries to, solely with recourse to the “tail” policy referenced in Section 7.11(c) indemnify and hold harmless each D&O Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the limitations set forth as the date hereof in the Transferred Entities’, Fund Vehicles’, and their Subsidiaries’ Organizational Documents against and from any Losses and other amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim, Legal Proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent such claim, Legal Proceeding or investigation arises out of or pertains to any alleged action or omission in such D&O Indemnified Party’s capacity as a director or officer of either a Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle, or any of their Subsidiaries prior to the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither Buyer, any Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle, nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be liable for any settlement effected without their prior written consent, and neither of them shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one legal counsel (selected by a plurality of the D&O Indemnified Parties) for all D&O Indemnified Parties in any jurisdiction with respect to any single legal action except to the extent that, on the advice of any such D&O Indemnified Parties’ counsel, two or more of such D&O Indemnified Parties shall have conflicting interests in the outcome of such action. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no D&O Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek indemnification pursuant to the Fund Governance Documents, whether directly or through any insurance maintained by or for the benefit of such Fund Vehicles, in respect of any claim, Legal Proceeding or other action pursuant to the Transaction Documents (but excluding the Fund Governance Documents, to the extent such claim, Legal Proceeding or other action is unrelated to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) or in connection with any claim for Losses that may be asserted by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) Prior to the Closing, Buyer and CCOC shall purchase a “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary insurance policy with a claims period of at least six (6) years after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in the proviso to this Section 7.11(c), on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the D&O Indemnified Parties than the existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary insurance applicable to, and with comparable limits currently afforded to, the Transferred Entities, Fund Vehicles, and their Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement, covering claims arising from facts, events, acts or omissions that occurred at or prior to the Closing, including the transactions contemplated hereby and providing that such policy shall be the policy or other indemnification obligation of first resort; provided that Buyer, on the one hand, and CCOC, on the other hand, shall share equally in the cost of any such policy up to an aggregate amount equal to 250% of the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and fiduciary insurance policy and Sellers shall be responsible for any excess amount or CCOC and Buyer shall only be required to purchase a policy with a maximum coverage for such 250% premium.

(d) The D&O Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 7.11 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 7.11. The provisions of this Section 7.11 are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each D&O Indemnified Party and his or her successors, heirs or representatives. Buyer shall pay all reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any D&O Indemnified Party in enforcing its indemnity and other rights under this Section 7.11 to the extent such D&O Indemnified Party is

successful in such enforcement action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 7.11 shall survive the Closing indefinitely.

(e) Sellers hereby agree and acknowledge that, except with respect to recourse to the “tail” policy reference in Section 7.11(c), Sellers are the indemnitors of first resort with respect to any D&O Indemnified Party in connection with their rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this Section 7.11.

Section 7.12. RWI Policy. Following the Closing, in the event that Buyer obtains a representations and warranties insurance policy (an “RWI Policy”) in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer and its Affiliates shall not amend, waive, or otherwise modify the subrogation provision under such RWI Policy in any manner that, or include any provisions which, would allow the insurer thereunder to subrogate or otherwise make or bring any Legal Proceeding against Sellers except in the event of Fraud. Sellers shall be an intended third-party beneficiary of the subrogation provision applicable to Sellers. All premiums, underwriting fees and similar costs associated with Buyer obtaining the RWI Policy shall be borne by Buyer.

Section 7.13. Termination of Guarantees. The Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, on or prior to the Closing, effective as of the Closing, the termination of, a full release of Sellers and their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities and their Subsidiaries and any guarantees described in Section 3.2(d)(vii)) from, all obligations of Sellers and their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities and their Subsidiaries and any guarantees described in Section 3.2(d)(vii)) arising under all guarantees (including any clawback guarantees entered into by Sellers or their Affiliates in respect of the Fund Vehicles other than any guarantees described in Section 3.2(d)(vii)), keepwells, letters of credit, indemnity or contribution agreements, support agreements, comfort letters, insurance surety bonds or other contingent obligations, if any, in respect of any loans which obligations are set forth in Section 7.13 of the Disclosure Schedule (the “Seller Guarantees”). To the extent requested by the applicable counterparty, Buyer shall offer to provide commercially reasonable substitute arrangements for those provided by Sellers and their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Entities and their Subsidiaries) under each Seller Guarantee and any guarantees described in Section 3.2(d)(vii). In the event that, following the Closing, a Seller is required to make any payment or incurs any Loss in respect of a Seller Guarantee (other than in connection with an Excluded Obligation), Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless such Seller and promptly, upon receipt of written notice, reimburse such Seller the amount of such payment or Loss.

Section 7.14. Resignations. Prior to Closing, Sellers shall obtain the resignation, or procure the removal, of all general partner and managing member entities (to the extent such entities are not also Controlled Transferred Entities or any of their Portfolio Investments or Subsidiaries), directors, managers, and officers of each Controlled Transferred Entity and each of its Subsidiaries and any other Portfolio Investment (to the extent designated by or on behalf of Sellers), along with such releases as mutually agreed upon by the Parties, as requested by Buyer at least ten (10) Business Days prior to Closing, which resignation or removal shall be effective at the Closing, and Sellers shall deliver to Buyer evidence of such resignation or removal at or prior to the Closing.

Section 7.15. Tax Matters.

(a) Transfer Taxes shall be split between Buyer and Sellers in accordance with Section 12.3 of the Disclosure Schedule. Buyer hereby agrees to file in a timely manner all necessary documents (including all Tax Returns) with respect to all such amounts. Buyer shall provide Sellers with evidence satisfactory to Sellers that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by Buyer. Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, Sellers hereby agree that to the extent applicable Law requires that Sellers file any necessary documents (including Tax Returns) with respect to Transfer Taxes, Sellers shall file in a timely manner such necessary documents (including Tax Returns) with respect to such amounts. Sellers shall provide Buyer with evidence satisfactory to Buyer that such Transfer Taxes have been paid by Sellers. The Parties agree to cooperate with each other for any reasonable requests in the filing of any Tax Returns with respect to Transfer Taxes, including promptly supplying any information in such Party’s possession that is reasonably necessary to complete such Tax Returns. The Parties further agree to reimburse the Party paying such Transfer Taxes for the applicable portion of Transfer Taxes owed by such Party within ten (10) Business Days after a written request for reimbursement by such Party.

(b) Following the allocation of the Final Closing Cash Consideration made pursuant to Section 2.5(d), the Parties shall further allocate the Final Closing Cash Consideration (as set forth on the Final Allocation Schedule) and any other amounts properly treated as consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes, including the Retention Payment and any Liabilities treated as assumed by Buyer for U.S. federal income tax purposes among the Interests, the Management Rights, and among the assets of each Transferred Entity or Fund Vehicle that is treated as a disregarded entity or a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation Schedule and Sections 751, 755 and 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Closing Cash Consideration Allocation”). Within 60 days after the Final Closing Cash Consideration is established, Sellers shall provide a proposed Closing Cash Consideration Allocation to Buyer (together with copies of such backup information as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate, or as Buyer may reasonably request, to support such proposal). Such proposed Closing Cash Consideration Allocation shall be final and binding on the Parties unless, within 30 days after Buyer provides such proposed Closing Cash Consideration Allocation, Buyer notifies Sellers of its disagreement with any item in such proposed allocation. In the event of such notification, Sellers and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, however, that if Sellers and Buyer cannot resolve such dispute within 30 days, then they shall appoint an internationally recognized accounting firm mutually acceptable to them (the “Tax Referee”) to determine as promptly as reasonably practicable the matters in dispute and provide a revised Closing Cash Consideration Allocation that reflects such determination, with the fees and expenses of the Tax Referee to be borne fifty percent (50%) by Sellers and fifty percent (50%) by Buyer, and the revised Closing Cash Consideration Allocation provided by the Tax Referee to the Parties shall be final and binding on the Parties and their Affiliates. The Parties will not take a position on any Tax Return before any Tax Authority or in any audit, contest, examination or other administrative or judicial proceeding related to Taxes (a “Tax Proceeding”) that is inconsistent with the Closing Cash Consideration Allocation as finally determined pursuant to this Section 7.15(b) and will cooperate with each other in timely filing any applicable Forms 8594 with the IRS consistent with such Closing Cash Consideration Allocation in each case, unless otherwise required pursuant to a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code, or

any analogous provision of applicable state, local or non-U.S. Law. To the extent that any Consent Excluded Assets are transferred to Buyer post-Closing, Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate in good faith to revise the Closing Cash Consideration Allocation to take into account such post-Closing transfer in a manner consistent with the principles of this Section 7.15(b).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Parties agree that for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for all applicable U.S. state and local tax purposes, the Parties will report the Retention Payment as consideration paid by Buyer to Sellers for the Interests, and, to the extent that any related employee retention program payments are deductible for applicable Tax purposes, the Parties further agree that Sellers and/or their Affiliates, as applicable (and not Buyer or any of its Affiliates) shall be entitled to such deduction to the extent permitted under the applicable Tax Laws; provided that if a Transferred Entity or Fund Vehicle is entitled under applicable Tax Laws to any such deduction, then to the extent permitted under the applicable Tax Laws such deduction shall be treated as attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Pre-Closing Straddle Period and, if such Transferred Entity or Fund Vehicle files a Pass-Through Tax Return, allocable to Sellers or their Affiliates.

(d) Sellers will prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be timely filed (i) all Tax Returns for TRC Entities for Pre-Closing Tax Periods that are due prior to the Closing Date and (ii) all Tax Returns for TRC Entities for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period that are due after the Closing Date. Such Tax Returns will be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and in accordance with all applicable Laws. Sellers will deliver (or cause to be delivered) such Tax Returns to Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (taking into account applicable extensions) for Buyer’s review and comment. Sellers shall consider any reasonable comments provided by Buyer within fifteen (15) days after such Tax Return was delivered to Buyer, and Sellers shall incorporate such comments (to the extent the comments relate to issues that affect Taxes for which Buyer or its Affiliates are liable and are not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement) on the version of such Tax Return filed with the applicable Tax Authority provided that Sellers approve such comments (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Buyer will cause the TRC Entities to pay all Taxes shown as due on all Tax Returns for Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for TRC Entities due after the Closing Date. After Buyer has caused a Controlled Transferred Entity to pay any Taxes described in the preceding sentence, Sellers shall reimburse Buyer for Taxes shown as due on such Tax Returns, to the extent such Taxes are treated as Excluded Taxes, within ten (10) Business Days after a written request for reimbursement by Buyer.

(e) To the extent Buyer is granted any rights to prepare, review, comment or otherwise consult in the preparation of a Tax Return (or component thereof) of a Non-TRC Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period that is due after the Closing Date (“Non-TRC Entity Tax Return Consent Rights”), Buyer (i) shall consult with Sellers in connection with the exercise of any such Non-TRC Entity Tax Return Consent Rights, and (ii) shall exercise such Non-TRC Entity Tax Return Consent Rights (to the extent such exercise relates to matters that affect Excluded Taxes or other Taxes for which Sellers or their Affiliates are liable and are not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement) in a manner approved by Sellers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(f) Each Party shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) notify the other Parties in writing, following receipt of notice of any pending or threatened

Tax Proceeding with respect to a Controlled Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle or Non-Controlled Transferred Entity, provided, however, that Buyers shall only be required to notify Sellers to the extent such Tax Proceeding relates, in whole, or in part, to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period.

(g) Sellers shall have the right to control, at their own expense, any Tax Proceeding relating to a Controlled Transferred Entity or Tax Proceeding Controlled Entity (a “Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding”) for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period; provided, however, that Sellers shall (i) keep Buyer informed, promptly and in reasonable detail about the conduct of any Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding, and (ii) with respect to any Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding relating to a Tax Return of a Controlled Transferred Entity or Tax Proceeding Controlled Entity for a Straddle Period, Sellers shall not enter into any settlement of, or otherwise compromise, such Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding in a manner that would result in Taxes for which Buyer and its Affiliates are liable and are not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(h) To the extent Buyer is granted any information rights or rights to control or otherwise participate in any Tax Proceeding relating to a Non-Controlled Transferred Entity that is not a Tax Proceeding Controlled Entity for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (a “Non-Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding”), Buyer shall (i) keep Sellers informed, promptly and in reasonable detail about the conduct of such Non-Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding, and (ii) to the extent within the control of Buyer or its Affiliates, not consent to or otherwise permit the Non-Controlled Transferred Entity to enter into any settlement of, or otherwise compromise, any such Non-Controlled Transferred Entity Tax Proceeding in a manner that would increase Excluded Taxes or Taxes of Sellers or their Affiliates without the prior written consent of Sellers (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(i) Buyer shall timely prepare (or cause to be prepared), all Tax Returns of a Fund Vehicle for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period that are due after the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns of Fund Vehicles shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and in accordance with all applicable Laws. Buyer shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) such Tax Return to Sellers at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof (taking into account applicable extensions) for Sellers' review and comment. Buyer shall consider any reasonable comments provided by Sellers within fifteen (15) days after such Tax Return was delivered to Sellers, and Buyer shall incorporate such comments (to the extent the comments relate to matters that affect Excluded Taxes or other Taxes for which Sellers or their Affiliates are liable and are not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement) on the version of such Tax Return filed with the applicable Tax Authority provided that Buyer approves such comments (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(j) Buyer shall promptly notify Sellers in writing upon receipt of notice of any pending or threatened Tax Proceeding with respect to a Fund Vehicle for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period (“Fund Vehicle Tax Proceeding”). Buyer shall have the right to control any Fund Vehicle Tax Proceeding; provided, however, that Buyer shall (A) keep Sellers informed, promptly and in reasonable detail, about the conduct of such Fund Vehicle Tax Proceeding, and (B) not enter into any settlement of, or otherwise compromise, any such Fund Vehicle Tax Proceeding in a manner that would result in Excluded Taxes or other Taxes for

which Sellers or their Affiliates are liable and are not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Sellers (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Party shall be required to take any position on any Tax Return for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period or with regard to any Tax Proceeding that is not supported by at least "substantial authority" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6662-4(d) or an equivalent standard under the relevant Law.

(l) For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent an entity is both a Transferred Entity and a Fund Vehicle, Section 7.15(i) and Section 7.15(j), and not Section 7.15(d), Section 7.15(e), Section 7.15(f), Section 7.15(g), or Section 7.15(h) shall apply.

(m) To the extent it is necessary for purposes of this Agreement to allocate Tax of a Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle, or Non-Controlled Transferred Entity for a Straddle Period between the applicable Pre-Closing Straddle Period and the Post-Closing Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax allocable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period shall (i) in the case of any Taxes other than gross receipts Taxes, payroll Taxes, withholding Taxes, sales or use Taxes and Taxes based upon or related to gross or net income, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Tax period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to gross or net income and any gross receipts, payroll, withholding, sales or use Tax, be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on and included the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any entity treated as a transparent or “pass-through” entity, a controlled foreign corporation, a passive foreign investment company, or similar entity under an applicable Tax Law, in which a Transferred Entity or Fund Vehicle holds a beneficial interest will be deemed to terminate at such time). All determinations necessary to give effect to the allocation set forth in the foregoing clause (ii) shall be made in a manner consistent with past practice of the Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle or Non-Controlled Transferred Entity.

107

(a) Promptly after a Party becomes aware of Losses for which indemnification may be sought under this Article X, the Party entitled to indemnification (“Indemnitee”) will give notice thereof pursuant to Section 12.5 (a “Claims Notice”) to the Party or Parties from whom indemnification may be sought (“Indemnitor”). The Claims Notice will include a description in reasonable detail of the matter in respect of which indemnification may be sought, and will indicate the amount (estimated, if necessary) of the Losses suffered by Indemnitee to the extent known. Failure of Indemnitee to promptly give notice hereunder will not affect rights to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that such failure is actually prejudicial to the rights and obligations of Indemnitor, and then only to the extent of damages caused by such failure.

(b) The Indemnitee and its Affiliates shall afford the Indemnitor and its Representatives reasonable access during normal business hours, to all their respective personnel who may have knowledge of the facts and circumstances, and to all their respective books, contracts, commitment and records relating to any claim by an Indemnitee an otherwise reasonably cooperate with Indemnitor and its Representatives in investigating such claim; provided that such cooperation would not result in the loss of any attorney-client or other similar privilege or unreasonably interfere with business operations.

(c) In the event the Indemnitor shall dispute the validity of all or any amount of a claim, the Indemnitor shall, within thirty (30) days of its receipt of the claim, execute and deliver to the Indemnitee a written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the basis upon which the claim or any portion thereof is disputed (the “Dispute Statement”).

(d) After the giving of any Claims Notice pursuant hereto, the amount of indemnification to which Indemnitee will be entitled under this Article X will be subject to coverage hereunder as incurred and ultimately finally determined: (i) by written agreement between Indemnitee and Indemnitor (including the resolution of the amount of any claim disputed by Indemnitor in a Dispute Statement); or (ii) by a final judgment of any court of competent jurisdiction (for which purpose, a judgment of a court will be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, has expired and no appeal has been taken or when all appeals taken have been finally determined). All amounts due to Indemnitee, including as incurred and as so finally determined, will be paid by Indemnitor by wire transfer within five (5) Business Days after requested or the determination of the amount of indemnification owing, as the case maybe.

108

Section 10.5. Defense of Claim.

(a) In the case of any third party claim for which Indemnitee seeks indemnification from Indemnitor hereunder, Indemnitor will have the option to conduct and control the defense of such third party claim, including settling the claim (provided that Indemnitor will not settle any such claim if Indemnitee acknowledges its indemnity obligations hereunder in connection therewith without the consent of Indemnitee (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the settlement includes a complete release of, and no obligation of payment by, and no admission of fault or wrongdoing on the part of, Indemnitee with respect to the claim. Until Indemnitee has received notice of Indemnitor’s election whether to defend any claim, Indemnitee may take reasonable steps to defend (but may not settle) such claim. If Indemnitor declines to assume the defense of any such claim, or Indemnitor fails to notify Indemnitee within ten (10) calendar days after its receipt of the Claims Notice of Indemnitor’s election to defend such claim, Indemnitee may defend against such claim (provided that Indemnitee will not settle such claim without the consent of Indemnitor (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the settlement includes a complete release of, and no obligation of payment by, and no admission of fault or wrongdoing on the part of, Indemnitor with respect to the claim). Regardless of which Party assumes the defense of the claim, the Parties agree to cooperate fully with one another in connection therewith and to keep each other reasonably informed of the status of the claim and any related proceeding and will take no action or make any admissions or statements not required by Law that would adversely affect the defense of any such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 7.15(g), Section 7.15(h), and Section 7.15(j) and not this Section 10.5, will govern the conduct of any Tax Proceeding described in any of such provisions.

(b) With respect to a third party claim for which the Indemnitor has elected to control the defense, the Indemnitor shall not settle such third party claim without the consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless such settlement (i) includes a complete and unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all Liabilities relating thereto, (ii) does not contain any admission of any wrongdoing by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, and (iii) does not encumber any assets of any Indemnitee or subject any Indemnitee to any conditions or restrictions that would or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect such Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall notify the Indemnitee of the progress of any such third party claim and shall provide the Indemnitee with reasonable access upon request to all relevant information and documentation relating to such third party claim and the prosecution or defense thereof.

(c) The Indemnitee shall have the right, at the cost and expense of the Indemnitor and with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor, to assume the defense of a third party claim in lieu of the Indemnitor if (i) the Indemnitor has failed or is failing to defend in good faith the third party claim, (ii) the Indemnitor does not exercise its right to defend against such third party claim, (iii) the applicable claim seeks in addition to or lieu of monetary damages, any injunctive or other equitable relief, (iv) the applicable claim presents, under applicable standards of professional conduct, a conflict on any significant issue between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor, (v) the applicable claim involves any investor, Limited Partner, partner or other similar Person of the Indemnitee or any of their Affiliates and such claim could reasonably be expected to materially impair such Indemnitee’s or its Affiliate’s relationship with such investor, Limited Partner, partner or other similar Person; provided that in the event both the Indemnitor

109

and the Indemnitee (or their respective Affiliates) are named parties to such claim, then the Indemnitee’s applicable control of such claim hereunder shall be limited to the portion of such claim relating to the Indemnitee (or its applicable Affiliate), and the Indemnitor shall be permitted to continue to control the defense of the portion of such claim relating to the Indemnitor (or its applicable Affiliate), (vi) the applicable claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (vii) the maximum Liability amount set forth in Section 10.6 are exceeded, or (viii) the applicable claim made by any Governmental Entity or related claim by a Governmental Entity names the New GP, the New Manager, Fortress Investment Group, LLC or one of its Affiliates (other than Buyer and any of its Subsidiaries, including any Transferred Entity, Fund Vehicle or Portfolio Investment, other than the New GP and the New Manager); provided that in the event both the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee (or their respective Affiliates) are named parties to such claim, then the Indemnitee’s applicable control of such claim hereunder shall be limited to the portion of such claim relating to the Indemnitee (or its applicable Affiliate), and the Indemnitor shall be permitted to continue to control the defense of the portion of such claim relating to the Indemnitor (or its applicable Affiliate). The Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnitor of the progress of any such third party claim and shall provide the Indemnitor with reasonable access upon request to all relevant information and documentation relating to such third party claim and the prosecution or defense thereof. In the event the Indemnitee assumes the defense of the third party claim pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Indemnitor, at its sole cost and expense, shall cooperate with the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall, at its expense, be permitted to participate in such defense. The Indemnitee shall not settle any third party claim (including any third party claim for which the Indemnitor is conducting and controlling the defense pursuant to Section 10.5(b)) without the consent of the Indemnitor (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any third party claim for which the Indemnitee is controlling the defense thereof pursuant to clause (viii) of this Section 10.5(c), in the event of any settlement opportunity with the applicable Governmental Entity the Indemnitee will not be required to obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnitor to the settlement of such claim unless such settlement involves the payment of a material amount of money for which the Indemnitor would be responsible hereunder, and in the event and to the extent such settlement does involve a material amount of money for which the Indemnitor would be responsible hereunder then the Indemnitee shall not settle that element of such claim without the consent of the Indemnitor (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

Section 10.6. Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary:

(a) Sellers will have no Liability in respect of any matter to the extent that it is (i) subject to Section 12.12, disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule (provided that any such disclosure will not preclude or otherwise limit an Indemnitee’s ability to recover for Losses under Section 7.20(k) (provided that the foregoing shall not limit the Liability of Sellers to the extent such disclosure (i) is made for the purposes of informing a representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement and (ii) is not setting forth an exception to a representation or warranty herein), Section 10.2(d), Section 10.2(e) or Section 10.2(f) on the terms set forth in this Article X); and/or (ii) included in any adjustment of the Closing Cash Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5.

110

(b) Sellers will have no Liability under Section 10.2(a) and Section 10.2(d)(2) of the Disclosure Schedule, and no Indemnitee will be entitled to recover for Losses under Section 10.2(a) and Section 10.2(d)(2) of the Disclosure Schedule that individually are in an amount of $100,000 or less (which matters will not be aggregated unless such claims are part of a substantially similar class of, or related, claims), provided that the foregoing shall not apply in respect of Section 4.10(a)(i) (Litigation), Section 4.13 (Tax Representations), Section 5.11(a)(i) (Litigation), and Section 5.24 (Tax Representations), or (ii) unless and until, and then only to the extent that, Losses arising out of an individual claim or series of unrelated claims, aggregate to an amount in excess of 1% of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible”), in which case Sellers will only be liable for the amount of Losses sought by an Indemnitee in excess of the Deductible.

(c) The maximum aggregate Liability of Sellers, and an Indemnitee’s sole recourse (other than the RWI Policy, if any) for indemnification, under Section 10.2(a), Section 10.2(c) (solely with respect to the pre-Closing covenants covered under Section 10.1(b)(i)), and Section 10.2(d)(2) of the Disclosure Schedule, is limited to an amount equal to 10% of the Purchase Price.

(d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.2(c), the maximum Liability of Sellers, and an Indemnitee’s sole recourse (other than the RWI Policy, if any) for indemnification by Sellers, under or in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except in the case of Fraud) is limited to the Final Closing Cash Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5, actually received by Sellers.

(e) The indemnification obligations of Buyer will be capped at the amount of the Final Closing Cash Consideration, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5, actually received by Sellers.

(f) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article X shall be reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized (in the form of a reduction in a Tax payable to a Tax Authority or receipt of a Tax refund, including any interest with respect thereto) by the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates (including as a result of an allocation of such Tax benefit to the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates by a “pass-through entity”) arising in or prior to the Tax period in which the applicable indemnity payment is made, but only to the extent such Tax benefit is not reasonably expected to be offset by a Tax Liability that will be incurred by the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates in future periods by reason of the incurrence of such Losses or receipt of the applicable indemnification payment under this Article X for such Losses (it being understood the amount of such future Tax Liability shall be determined taking into account any anticipated additional Tax benefits of the Indemnitee or its Affiliates to be realized in future periods as a result of such Losses).

(g) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the purposes of this Article X (including for purposes of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”), each representation and warranty in this Agreement shall be read without regard and without giving effect to the terms “material,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar phrases or qualifiers contained in such representation or warranty (as if such words or phrases were deleted from such representation and warranty); provided that the foregoing shall not apply in respect of Section 5.6(a) (Financial Statements), Section 5.7 (Absence of Undisclosed

111

Liabilities), Section 5.8 (Absence of Certain Changes or Events) and Section 5.18 (Material Contracts) solely for purposes of the definition of “Material Contract” and to the extent related to the “material,” “in all material respects,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar phrases or qualifiers contained in such representation or warranty.

(h) Any amounts payable pursuant to the indemnification obligations under this Agreement shall be paid without duplication and in no event shall (i) any Indemnitor be obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee with respect to any Losses with respect to any matter to the extent such matter was taken into account in any adjustment pursuant to Section 2.6; or (ii) any Indemnitee be indemnified under different provisions of this Agreement for the same Losses.

(i) All Losses will be determined, and any indemnification in respect of Losses will be made, net of any insurance (including under the RWI Policy, if applicable) or other third party proceeds or benefits actually recovered or actually received by Indemnitee in connection with the fact(s) or matter(s) giving rise to such Losses. If Buyer procures a RWI Policy, each Indemnitee will use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue any such proceeds or benefits, both before and after payment of any indemnification hereunder; and any such proceeds or benefits are recovered in connection with the fact(s) or matter(s) giving rise to Losses after any indemnification payment has been made in respect of such Losses without taking into account such proceeds or benefits, Indemnitee upon recovering the same will promptly pay them over to Indemnitor.

(j) No claim for indemnification in respect of any breach of a representation or warranty or covenant set forth in this Agreement may be made after the applicable expiration date for such representation or warranty or covenant set forth in Section 10.1 above.

(k) Each Party will make commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the Losses for which any other Party is required to indemnify it, and no Party will be entitled to indemnification in respect of any Losses that could have been avoided by such commercially reasonable efforts.

Section 10.7. Order of Recourse. Buyer’s rights to indemnification for Losses will be satisfied in the following order: (i) first, from the RWI Policy (if any, and to the extent covered thereby); and (ii) thereafter, from Sellers in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, this Agreement.

Section 10.8. Exclusive Remedies.

Section 10.9. Tax and Other Treatment of Indemnity. The Parties agree that any indemnification payments made with respect to this Agreement shall be treated for all Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law (including by a determination of a Tax Authority that, under applicable Law, is not subject to further review or appeal).

Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or not, each Party shall be solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with the negotiation, preparation and performance of and compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of Sellers and Buyer shall be responsible for 50% of (a) all governmental fees and charges applicable to any requests for Government Consents, including any filing fees related to the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws applicable to the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) the cost of “tail” policies purchased pursuant to Section 7.11(c) up to the cap specified in Section 7.11(c) and (c) any Transfer Taxes except to the extent set forth in Section 12.3 of the Disclosure Schedule.

Section 12.4. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement and any Transaction Document is to be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or such Transaction Document, and the Parties shall use best efforts to amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any prohibited or invalid provision with an effective and valid provision that gives effect to the intent of the Parties to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

Section 12.5. Notices. All notices, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when personally delivered, on the date delivered, (b) when transmitted via e-mail (or other electronic device), on the date the delivering party receives confirmation during normal business hours (and, if not during normal business hours, the next Business Day), (c) one Business Day after being sent prepaid by a reputable courier service (providing proof of delivery), or (d) the third Business Day following the day on which the same is sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid.

Any Party may change its address for the purpose of this Section 12.5 by giving the other Party written notice of its new address in the manner set forth above.

Section 12.6. Waivers and Amendments. This Agreement and each Transaction Document may be amended, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended, and the terms hereof or thereof may be waived, only by a written agreement signed (in counterparts or otherwise) by each of the Parties hereto or thereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party waiving compliance. The failure of a Party to insist, in any one or more instances, upon performance of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or any Transaction Document will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term, covenant or condition. No waiver on the part of any Party of any right, power or privilege, nor any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege, will preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

Section 12.7. Conflict Between Transaction Documents. The Parties hereto agree and acknowledge that to the extent any terms and provisions of this Agreement are in any way inconsistent with or in conflict with any term, condition or provision of any other agreement, document or instrument contemplated hereby, this Agreement shall govern and control.

Section 12.8. Public Announcements. The initial press release regarding this Agreement shall be a mutually acceptable joint press release. Prior to the Closing, no Party hereto shall make any press release or public announcement setting forth the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby without the approval of the other Parties hereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in Section 7.8, either Party (or any of its Affiliates) may release information concerning the transactions contemplated hereby at any time after the date of this Agreement, (i) in the manner in which its Affiliates publicly disclosed transactions prior to the date hereof consistent with past practice, (ii) to comply with any applicable Laws, including pursuant to governmental regulations and statutes as required by Law for publicly filing entities or pursuant to an order by a court of competent jurisdiction or (iii) to the extent, in the good faith judgment of Buyer’s or Sellers’ outside counsel, accountants, or advisors, as applicable, such disclosure is required to be disclosed (including in any registration statement, other disclosure document, press release or public announcement) in connection with such Party’s (or any of its Affiliates’) quarterly earnings results, earnings guidance or capital raising, other fund-raising

118

activities and reporting activities; provided, however, in either of clauses (ii) or (iii), such disclosing Party shall give the other Parties a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in Section 7.8, nothing herein shall limit the right of an Affiliate of either Party that is a public reporting company to publicly disclose the transaction consistent with any statements previously made in compliance with this Section 12.8 and to the extent required pursuant to applicable Law.

Section 12.9. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and all other Transaction Documents (including the exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto) constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among Sellers and Buyer with respect to the subject matter hereof (including the Letter of Intent, as it may have been amended). No representations, warranties, covenants, understandings or agreements, oral or otherwise, relating to the transactions contemplated hereby exist among the Parties, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

Section 12.10. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The D&O Indemnified Persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of the provisions of Section 7.11(d), and each of them has the right to enforce such provisions directly. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, nothing herein is intended or will be construed to give any Person other than the Parties hereto any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein.

Section 12.11. Construction. The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement reflects the language mutually chosen by the Parties to express their understanding and agreement, and no Party, nor its respective counsel, shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement for purposes of construing the provisions hereof, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed according to their fair meaning and not strictly for or against any Party, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Person by virtue of its authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 12.12. Exhibits and Schedules. The exhibits and schedules, including the Disclosure Schedule, referenced herein, will be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein. All references herein to any Disclosure Schedule or schedules and exhibits shall be deemed references to such parts of this Agreement to the extent reasonably apparent on its face, unless the context shall otherwise require. Any disclosure made by a Party in the Disclosure Schedule with reference to any section or schedule of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a disclosure with respect to all other sections or schedules of this Agreement to the extent such disclosure is reasonably applicable on its face. Certain information set forth in the Disclosure Schedule is included solely for informational purposes and may not be required to be disclosed pursuant to this Agreement. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Disclosure Schedule is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts or the items so included or other items, are or are not material, and no Party shall use the fact of the setting of such amounts or the inclusion of any such item in any dispute or controversy as to whether any obligation, items or matter not

119

described herein or included in the Disclosure Schedule is or is not material for purposes of this Agreement. No disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule of any contract, document, actual or potential Liability, default, breach, violation, limitation, impediment or other fact or matter constitutes an admission or implication that the same is in fact material or has caused or may cause a Material Adverse Effect, notwithstanding that the related representations and warranties may call for such disclosure only to the extent the same is material or has caused or may cause a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 12.13. Enforcement. The Parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur, and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law, in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to specifically enforce the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which any Party is entitled at law or in equity. Each Party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. The Parties further agree not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy.

Section 12.14. Counterparts. This Agreement and each Transaction Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to each of the other Parties, it being understood that each Party need not sign the same counterpart. Execution of this Agreement by electronic imaging or electronic signature will constitute effective execution of this Agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

Section 12.15. Legal Counsel; Waiver of Conflicts; Attorney-Client Privilege.

(a) Recognizing that Clifford Chance has acted as legal counsel to Sellers (and certain of their current and former direct and indirect stockholders and other beneficial owners) prior to the Closing, and that Clifford Chance will continue to act as legal counsel to Sellers (and certain of their current and former direct and indirect beneficial owners and stockholders) after the Closing, Buyer agrees that, after the Closing, none of Buyer or its Affiliates will have any right to access or control any Attorney-Client Communications, including of the Transferred Entities and the Fund Vehicles, which will be the property of (and be controlled by) Sellers or any of their Affiliates, as applicable.

(b) Buyer agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Transferred Entities), that from and after the Closing (i) the attorney-client privilege, all other evidentiary privileges and the expectation of client confidence as to all Attorney-Client Communications belong to Sellers, the Transferred Entities, or their respective Affiliates, as applicable, and will not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or any of its Affiliates that are not part of the Transferred Entities, and (ii) Sellers, the Transferred Entities or their respective Affiliates, as applicable, will have the exclusive right to control, assert, or waive the

120

attorney-client privilege, any other evidentiary privilege, and the expectation of client confidence with respect to such Attorney-Client Communications. Accordingly, Buyer will not, and will cause each of its Affiliates that are not part of the Transferred Entities not to, (x) assert any attorney-client privilege, other evidentiary privilege, or expectation of client confidence with respect to any Attorney-Client Communication; or (y) take any action which would reasonably be expected to cause any Attorney-Client Communication to cease being a confidential communication or to otherwise lose protection under the attorney-client privilege or any other evidentiary privilege, including waiving such protection in any dispute; provided, however, if a dispute arises between Buyer or any Transferred Entity or their Affiliates and a third party (other than Sellers in respect of the transactions contemplated hereunder) after the Closing, Buyer or any Transferred Entity or their Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent disclosure of confidential communications by Clifford Chance to such third party and may use such information in any such dispute; provided that Buyer or any Transferred Entity or their Affiliates may not waive such privilege without the prior written consent of Sellers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

Section 12.16. Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Legal Proceeding based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as Parties hereto and their permitted assignees, and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party. Except to the extent a named Party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named Party in this Agreement and not otherwise), no past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, lender, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or Representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any Liability (whether in Contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or Liabilities of any one or more of Sellers or Buyer under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) or of or for any Legal Proceeding based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.16 shall in any way limit or modify the rights and obligations of Buyer or Sellers under this Agreement or the D&O Indemnified Parties; provided, further, that this Section 12.16 shall not apply in the event of Fraud.

Section 12.17. No Rescission. Except in the event of Fraud, no Party will be entitled to rescind any transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 12.18. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all time periods and dates set forth in or referenced in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
