(b) Closing Transactions. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Parties shall consummate the following “Closing Transactions” on the Closing Date:

2.6 Assignment of Contracts and Rights. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Purchased Contract if an attempted assignment thereof, without consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other

- 10 -

contravention thereof or in any way adversely affect the rights of Buyer or Seller or a Selling Affiliate hereunder. Seller shall, and shall cause a Selling Affiliate if applicable to, use its commercially reasonable efforts (but without the requirement of any payment of money or the provision of any other consideration by Seller, Selling Affiliate or Buyer) to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Purchased Contract for the assignment thereof to Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate as Buyer may request. Unless and until such consent is obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of the Parties thereunder so that Buyer would not in fact receive all rights under such Purchased Contract, Seller shall, and shall cause a Selling Affiliate if applicable to, cooperate with Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate in a subcontracting arrangement as set forth on Exhibit E under which Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate would obtain the benefits in the nature of Purchased Assets and be responsible for the obligations in the nature of Assumed Liabilities thereunder in accordance with this Agreement or under which Seller or a Selling Affiliate, as applicable, would enforce, at Buyer’s expense, for the benefit of Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate, with Buyer assuming at Buyer’s expense Seller’s or a Selling Affiliate’s, as applicable, obligations, any and all rights of Seller or a Selling Affiliate, as applicable, against a third party thereto. Seller shall, and shall cause a Selling Affiliate to if applicable, promptly pay to Buyer when received all monies received by Seller or a Selling Affiliate, as applicable, under any Purchased Contract, excluding any Taxes (which, unless contested in good faith, will be remitted promptly and timely to the applicable government authority by Seller, and if any such contest is successful thereafter paid to the customer) and any Excluded Assets, and Buyer shall pay, defend, discharge and perform all Liabilities in the nature of Assumed Liabilities under such Purchased Contracts as required under Section 2.2(a) and Exhibit E. In cases in which a Contract that would otherwise constitute or result in the transfer of a Partially Assigned Contract contains prohibitions on partial assignment, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer such Contracts to Buyer, but Seller shall, and shall cause a Selling Affiliate if applicable to, prior to the Closing, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each such Contract to be separated into two Contracts in a manner consistent with the requirements set forth on Exhibit E (it being understood that if any such Contract does not specify the value of the Products sold pursuant to such Contract, the Parties acknowledge and agree that amounts attributable to such Products shall be deemed to have a value based on Seller’s maintenance recognition schedule in local currency and in applicable exchange rate for the month of March 2009), with each such newly split Contract that relates exclusively to the Products being referred to herein as a “Resulting Exclusive Contract”.

2.7

(i) No Party will be liable hereunder with respect to claims referred to in subsection 8.2(a)(i) or subsection 8.2(b)(i) above unless the other Party gives written notice thereof prior to the Applicable Limitation Date, if any. Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary contained in this Agreement, so long as a Party delivers written notice of a claim no later than the Applicable Limitation Date, the other Party shall be required to indemnify hereunder for all Losses which such parties may incur (subject to the Basket and the Cap, if applicable, and all other provisions of this Article VIII) in respect of the matters which are the subject of such claim, regardless of when incurred, to the extent indemnification is required with respect thereto pursuant to Sections 8.2(a) or (b).

(ii) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding (but subject to the remainder of this subsection 8.2(c)(ii)), no Indemnifying Party shall be liable to the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties, as the case may be, for any Loss arising under Section 8.2(a)(i) or Section 8.2(b)(i) above (A) unless the aggregate amount of all Losses incurred by the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties, as applicable, exceeds four hundred thousand dollars ($400,000) in the aggregate (the “Basket”), in which case such Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all such Losses in excess of the amount of the Basket, and (B) to the extent that the aggregate amount of all such Losses exceeds seventeen million, five hundred thousand dollars ($17,500,000) (the “Cap”). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Basket and the Cap shall not apply with respect to any Loss arising from or related to a breach of (a) any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any of the Affiliate Asset Purchase Agreements of any Party, (b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.1 (Organization and Corporate Power), Section 5.2 (Authorization of Transactions), clauses (i), (iii) and (iv) of Section 5.4 (Absence of Conflicts), Section 5.5(b) (Deferred Revenue), Section 5.7(h) (Deferred Revenue/Cash Management Policies Changes), clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 5.10(b) (Proprietary Rights), Section 5.16 (Affiliate Transactions), Section 5.18 (Title to Property),Section 6.1 (Organization and Corporate Power), Section 6.2 (Authorization of Transactions), Section 6.3 (No Conflicts), or (c) the indemnities in Sections 8.2(a)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) and Sections (b)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v).

(d)

Procedure.

(i) If a party hereto seeks indemnification under this Article VIII, such party (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give written notice to the other party(ies) (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after receiving written notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim against it (if by a third party) or discovering the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such claim for indemnification, describing the claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable), and the basis thereof; provided that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party promptly shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its Liabilities hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially harmed the Indemnifying Party. In that regard, if any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim shall be brought or asserted by any third party which, if adversely determined, would entitle the Indemnified Party to indemnity pursuant to Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the same in writing, specifying in detail the basis of such claim and the facts pertaining thereto and thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof and the Indemnifying Party’s reasonable request therefor, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to a third party claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to control the defense of such action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation or other claim giving rise to the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, and at the Indemnifying Party’s option (subject to the limitations set forth below) shall be entitled to appoint lead counsel of such defense with a nationally recognized reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided that, as a condition precedent to the Indemnifying Party’s right to assume control of such defense, it must first verify and commit in writing to the Indemnified Party that the Indemnifying Party agrees to be fully responsible (with no reservation of rights) for all Losses relating to such claims to the extent provided for in this Article VIII (but not subject to the Basket or Cap), and that it will provide full indemnification to the Indemnified Party for all Losses relating to such claim to the extent provided for in this Article VIII (but not subject to the Basket or Cap).

(ii) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume control of such defense, if the claim which the Indemnifying Party seeks to assume control (a) seeks non-monetary relief, (b) involves a claim to which the Indemnified Party reasonably and in good faith believes an adverse determination would materially injure or adversely affect the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects, (c) involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations, or (d) involves a claim which, upon petition by the Indemnified Party, the appropriate court rules that the Indemnifying Party failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend.

(iii) If the Indemnifying Party is permitted to assume and control the defense of a third party claim and elects to do so, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ counsel separate from counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel employed by the Indemnified Party shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing or (ii) the Indemnifying Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party.

(iv) If the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before entering into any settlement of a claim or

- 30 -

ceasing to defend such claim, if pursuant to or as a result of such settlement or cessation, injunction or other equitable relief will be imposed against the Indemnified Party, if such settlement does not expressly unconditionally release the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect to such claim and all other claims arising out of the same or similar facts and circumstances, with prejudice.

(e) Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party in immediately available funds promptly after the Indemnified Party provides the Indemnifying Party with written notice of a claim hereunder and the Parties agree in writing that there is a reasonable basis for such claim and with respect to the amount of such claim. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that it is determined either by mutual agreement or by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall immediately reimburse all fees and expenses incurred by any purported Indemnifying Party in connection with such claim.

(f) Purchase Price Adjustments. Amounts paid to or on behalf of any Party as indemnification shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

(g) Adjustment to Indemnification Payments. Any payment made under this Article VIII in respect of any indemnification claim (i) shall be reduced by any net insurance proceeds realized by and paid to the Indemnified Party in respect of such claim (determined after giving effect to any increase in premiums resulting therefrom), (ii) shall be reduced by any amounts collected from third parties (other than the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties) with respect to such claim and (iii) shall be (A) reduced by an amount equal to any Tax benefits attributable to such claim and (B) increased by an amount equal to any Tax detriment attributable to the receipt of such payment, but only to the extent that such Tax benefits are actually realized, or such Taxes are actually paid, as the case may be, by Seller or by the Buyer or by any consolidated, combined or unitary group of which either of them is a member, in the Tax year in which such Losses were incurred. An Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts (at the Indemnifying Party’s expense) to pursue any insurance company recovery available to it with respect to any Losses for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII.

(h) Exclusive Remedy. Subject to Section 8.1(b), from and after the Closing, the indemnification provided pursuant to this Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than equitable remedies or injunctive relief) hereto for any Losses as a result of, with respect to or arising out of any breach or claim in connection with this Agreement, any Exhibit or Schedule hereto or any certificate or writing delivered in connection with this Agreement, regardless of the cause of action.

(i) Limitation on Liability. No Indemnifying Party shall in any event be liable to the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties, as applicable, on account of any indemnification obligation set forth in this Article VIII for any incidental, special or punitive damages (or any consequential damages that do not directly result from the occurrence of any event specified in any of clauses (i) through (v) of Section 8.2(a)) incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party hereunder and in no event shall Losses include an Indemnified Party’s incidental, special or punitive damages (or any consequential damages that do not directly result from the occurrence of any event specified in any of clauses (i) through (v) of Section 8.2(a)); provided that nothing herein shall relieve any Indemnifying Party of its obligation to provide indemnification under this Article VIII for all components of awards or settlements against the Buyer Parties or the Seller Parties, as applicable, with respect to third party claims, including incidental, special or punitive damages (or any consequential damages that do not directly result from the occurrence of any event specified in any of clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 8.2(a)).

- 31 -

(j) Duty to Mitigate. Each of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with sound business judgment to mitigate the aggregate amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible hereunder; provided that the failure to so mitigate shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its Liabilities hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially harmed the Indemnifying Party.

(k) No Duplication of Warranties and Representations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Indemnified Party may not assert or recover under Section 8.2 above duplicative Losses in respect of a single set of facts or circumstances giving rise to a breach of representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not restrict claims under any one or more representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement that may be applicable to such facts and circumstances.

ARTICLE IX

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

9.1

Tax Matters.

(a) Certain Taxes and Fees. Seller and Buyer shall each be responsible for, as and when due, one-half of all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other fees and Taxes incurred by reason of the initial transfer on or after the Closing of the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities under this Agreement; provided that Buyer shall be solely responsible for any Value Added Taxes and Goods and Services Taxes incurred by reason of the transfer on or after the Closing of the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities under this Agreement and the related transactions, invoiced now or in the future by the Seller or reported under the reverse charge mechanism on any Buyer Tax Return. Except for sales Tax Returns (which shall be filed by Seller), Buyer shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees, and if required by applicable law, any of the other Parties hereto will execute and join in the execution of any such filing. Each Party shall bear their own costs with respect to any filings for which it is responsible (including any penalties and interest thereon).

(b) Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by any other Party, and without charge by the non-requesting Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns, and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(c) Property Taxes. All personal property taxes, ad valorem taxes and similar taxes imposed on a periodic basis, whether paid in advance or arrears, in each case levied with respect to the Purchased Assets, other than transfer taxes provided for in Section 9.1(a), for a taxable period which includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date shall be apportioned between Seller and Buyer as of the Closing Date based on the number of days of such taxable period included in the pre-Closing Tax period (including the Closing Date) and the number of days of such taxable period included in the post-Closing Tax period. Seller shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the pre-Closing Tax period. Within 90 days after the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall present a reimbursement to which each is entitled under this Section 9.1(c) together with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the proration amount. The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within 10 days after delivery of such statement. Thereafter, Seller shall notify Buyer upon receipt of any xxxx for personal property taxes relating to the Purchased Assets, part or all of which are

- 32 -

attributable to the post-Closing Tax period, and shall promptly deliver such xxxx to Buyer who shall pay the same to the appropriate taxing authority, provided that if such xxxx covers the pre-Closing Tax period, Seller shall also remit prior to the due date of assessment to Buyer payment for the proportionate amount of such xxxx that is attributable to the pre-Closing Tax period. In the event that either Seller or Buyer shall thereafter make a payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 9.1(c), the other party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than 30 days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9.1(c), if Buyer or a Buyer Affiliate relocates any Purchased Assets to another Tax jurisdiction and such relocation results in a Tax liability for a period that begins before the Closing, Seller shall not be liable for any portion of such Tax.

(d) Use of Electronic Delivery Method. Until Buyer enters into a Resulting Exclusive Agreement with each customer of the Seller, any software, maintenance updates and upgrades provided by Buyer shall be delivered in a manner consistent with the method of delivery noted in the Electronic Product Delivery field of Seller’s Client Management Application (as specified in the CMA FILE). Upon request from Seller, Buyer shall provide proof of its delivery method. Buyer shall indemnify Seller for any Tax liability imposed on Seller that results from Buyer’s change in method of delivery.

(e) Seller is responsible and liable for all applicable transaction taxes as they pertain to any Purchased Contract (or portion thereof) that was not assigned to Buyer and has the authority to determine all Tax policies and Tax reporting procedures for such contracts including all benefits, rights and obligations.

9.2 Press Releases and Announcements. At and after the Closing, no press releases related to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein, or other public announcements to the employees or exclusive customers of the business of the Seller relating to the Purchased Assets, shall be issued without the other Party’s prior written consent; provided, however, that a Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any requirement of the Nasdaq National Market or applicable laws or listing requirements of the United Kingdom. No such press releases or other public announcements shall be made prior to the Closing without the prior written consent of Seller and Buyer; provided, however, that a Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any requirement of the Nasdaq National Market or applicable laws or listing requirements of the United Kingdom.

9.3 Further Assurances. Seller and Buyer shall execute and deliver such further instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such additional action as any other Party may reasonably request to effect, consummate, confirm or evidence the transfer to Buyer of the Purchased Assets.

9.4 Specific Performance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller acknowledges that the business relating to the exploitation or sale of the Products and the Purchased Assets is unique and recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Seller, money damages may be inadequate and Buyer may have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, Seller agrees that Buyer shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and Seller’s obligations hereunder not only by an action or actions for damages but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunctive and/or other equitable relief. If any such action is brought by Buyer to enforce this Agreement, Seller hereby waives the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

- 33 -

9.5 Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, each of the Parties shall pay all of its own fees, costs and expenses (including fees, costs and expenses of legal counsel, investment bankers, brokers or other representatives and consultants and appraisal fees, costs and expenses) incurred in connection with the negotiation of the Letter of Intent, this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Each of Buyer and Seller shall pay one-half of the filing fees associated with any filings under the HSR Act or any other competition act filing required pursuant to applicable law.

9.6 Exclusivity.

9.7

Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality.

(a) Non-Competition. During the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the third anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), Seller shall not, and shall not allow any of its respective Affiliates (including Selling Affiliates) to, directly own any interest in, manage, control, participate in (whether as an owner, operator, franchisor, franchisee, creditor, advisor, representative or otherwise), consult, render services, organize, plan to organize or in any manner engage, or make preparation to engage, anywhere in the world, in any business or enterprise of licensing or developing packaged software products for installation at customer sites that have the same or substantially the same functionality as the Products as of the Closing Date (a “Competitive Business”); provided that ownership of less than 2% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded corporation shall not be deemed to be engaging solely by reason thereof in any of its business; provided further, that Seller may acquire a Competitive Business (i) without the prior written consent of Buyer if, and only if, such Competitive Business (x) constitutes a portion of a broader business or enterprise acquired by Seller and (y) has historically had, during each of the three years immediately preceding the date on which such acquisition is consummated, total Competitive Business revenues of less than $6,000,000 per year, and (ii) only with the prior written consent of Buyer if such Competitive Business (x) is stand-alone and not part of a broader business or enterprise acquired by Seller or (y) has historically had, during each of the three years immediately preceding the date on which such acquisition is consummated, total Competitive Business revenues of or great than $6,000,000, and subsequently, during the remainder of the Non-Compete Period, Seller may continue to operate such acquired Competitive Business so long as the total Competitive Business revenues derived therefrom do not exceed $8,000,000 (it being further understood that, in the event Seller elects to divest (or sell the assets attributable to) any such acquired Competitive Business during the Non-Compete Period, Seller shall provide Buyer with a right of first refusal to purchase such Competitive Business from Seller (at the same price and on the same material terms and conditions that Seller and any third party have otherwise agreed to consummate a transaction with respect thereto); provided further that Seller’s product entitled “Client Vantage Active” in its marketed use form and functionality shall not be deemed to be a Competitive Business. Seller expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restriction imposed by this Section 9.7 reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period and geographical area. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.7, the Buyer acknowledges that Seller is in the business of providing general professional services to customers and agrees that this Section 9.7 in no way limits Seller’s ability to utilize software products which are substantially the same or similar to the Products in order to provide such general professional

- 34 -

services provided that such software products are not directly licensed to any customers or other third parties.

(b) Non-Solicitation. Each Party agrees that, during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of the other Party, it shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly,

(i) solicit (other than through the means of a general advertisement) for the purpose of offering employment to or hiring (whether as an employee, consultant, agent, independent contractor or otherwise) or hire any Scheduled Employee or non-Scheduled Employee, as applicable, without the prior written consent of the other Party; or

(ii) solicit or attempt to induce any supplier or other material business relation of the business relating to the Purchased Assets into any business relationship which might materially harm Buyer or any of its Affiliates or disparage the Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, principals or employees.

(c) Confidentiality. From and after the Closing Date, Seller shall (and shall cause its Affiliates to) treat and hold as confidential any information concerning the Purchased Assets and the business of exploiting or selling the Products that are not already generally available to the public, including any notes, analyses, compilations, studies, forecasts, interpretations or other documents that are derived from, contain, reflect or are based upon any such information (the “Confidential Information”), refrain from using any of the Confidential Information except in connection with the performance of their obligations under this Agreement, and deliver promptly to Buyer, at the request and option of Buyer, all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Confidential Information which are in its possession or under its control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include information that is (i) generally available to the public other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.7(c) or (ii) rightfully received after the Closing Date from a third party not under any obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. In the event that Seller or any Affiliate of Seller is requested or required (by oral question or request for information or documents in any legal proceeding, interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Person shall notify Buyer promptly of the request or requirement so that Buyer may seek an appropriate protective order or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.7(c). If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Seller or any Affiliate of Seller is, on the advice of counsel, compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable for contempt, such Person may disclose the Confidential Information to the tribunal; provided that such disclosing Person shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain, at the request of Buyer, an order or other assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to such portion of the Confidential Information required to be disclosed as Buyer shall designate.

(d) Remedy for Breach. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach by it (or any of its Affiliates) of any of the provisions of this Section 9.7, monetary damages may not constitute a sufficient remedy. Consequently, in the event of any such breach, the non-breaching Party and/or its successors or assigns may, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof, in each case without the requirement of posting a bond or proving actual damages. Each Party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 9.7 by any of its Affiliates.

(e) Enforcement. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 9.7 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability shall have the power to reduce the scope,

- 35 -

duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed.

(f) Acknowledgment. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the restrictions contained in this Section 9.7 are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to the subject matter, time period and geographical area) and in the case of Buyer, are necessary to protect Buyer’s interest in, and value of, the Purchased Assets, (ii) the other Party is primarily responsible for the creation of such value, and (iii) each Party would not have consummated the transactions contemplated hereby without the restrictions contained in this Section 9.7.

9.8 Transitional Assistance. Seller shall cause two employees (to be reasonably acceptable to Buyer) during normal business hours, to provide reasonable assistance to Buyer, for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days (the “Post-Closing Period”) after the Closing, to ensure the orderly transition of the Purchased Assets from Seller to Buyer, including, but not limited to, responses to migration-related questions and additional data extracts as reasonably requested by Buyer. After the Post-Closing Period, if Buyer requests additional information related to the Purchased Assets, Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Buyer as requested.

9.9 Financial Information. Seller shall furnish to Buyer any information or documents reasonably requested by Buyer, which is in Seller’s possession or to which Seller has access, constituting, or necessary for obtaining the consent of Seller’s independent accountants with respect to the use of their audit reports on the financial statements with respect to Purchased Assets for periods prior to the Closing Date and shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in connection therewith.

9.10 Employee and Related Matters. Unless an Affiliate Asset Purchase Agreement explicitly provides otherwise, the following provisions shall apply to all Scheduled Employees:

(a)

Movement of Employees.

(i) United States Employees. As of the Closing Date, each Scheduled Employee who is actively employed by Seller in the United States on a United States payroll as of the Closing Date (the “Active Employees”) shall be offered employment by Buyer. Notwithstanding the inclusion of any such employee on Schedule 9.10, Buyer shall not offer employment to any employee of Seller’s business relating to the Purchased Assets who, as of the Closing Date, is absent from active employment with Seller for any reason (including as a result of layoff, leave of absence, disability, illness or injury) (the “Inactive Employees”) unless (i) the Inactive Employee was absent from active employment with Seller as of the Closing Date solely on account of an authorized leave of absence, an illness eligible for sick time under Seller’s sick leave policy, a short-term disability as determined under Seller’s short-term disability plan (whether or not the employee is insured under such plan) or an injury, illness or disability for which the Inactive Employee is eligible for protection and/or coverage under federal, state or local law, and (ii) such Inactive Employee qualifies to be actively employed by Buyer in accordance with Buyer’s human resources policies and procedures or is otherwise required by federal or state law to be offered employment by Buyer at any time following the Closing Date.

The Active Employees and the Inactive Employees meeting the criteria set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the second preceding sentence who accept employment with Buyer shall be referred to herein as “Transferred Employees.” The employees of Seller’s business

- 36 -

relating to the Purchased Assets who do not accept employment with Buyer shall be referred to herein as “Non-Transferred Employees.” Nothing in this Agreement shall limit Buyer’s ability to modify the salary or wage level or terminate the employment of any Transferred Employee at any time and for any reason, including without cause; provided, however, that immediately after Closing (or the applicable transfer date for Inactive Employees who become Transferred Employees), Seller shall provide Transferred Employees with credit for service with Seller and its Affiliates for purposes of eligibility and vesting under its benefit plans, other than under equity-based plans and awards. Neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall have any Liability with respect to any Non-Transferred Employee or former employee or retiree of Seller, regardless of when such Liability arises or occurred (whether on, prior to or after the Closing Date). Seller shall be solely responsible for the payment of all wages, salaries and other compensation and employee benefits relating to or arising out of their employment with Seller or its Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date (including any severance pay, notice pay, insurance, supplemental pension, deferred compensation, “stay” or other similar incentive bonuses, change-in-control bonuses (or other bonuses or compensation related in any way to the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement), retirement and any other benefits, premiums, claims and related costs) to any of Seller’s employees, former employees or retirees, including the Transferred Employees. Buyer shall be solely responsible for the payment of all wages, salaries and other compensation and employee benefits (including any severance pay, notice pay, insurance, supplemental pension, deferred compensation, bonuses, retirement and any other benefits, premiums, claims and related costs) to any Transferred Employee relating to or arising out of their employment with Buyer or any of its Affiliates after the Closing Date. Provided that on or before the Closing Date Buyer has been supplied a true and accurate list of employee layoffs, by date and location, implemented by Seller in the 90-day period preceding the Closing Date with respect to Seller’s business relating to the Purchased Assets, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller from all Liabilities arising under the WARN Act as a result, in whole or in part, of actions of the Buyer on or after the Closing Date with respect to any of the Transferred Employees. Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer from all Liabilities arising under the WARN Act as a result of actions of Seller and its Affiliates prior to the Closing Date. Except as set forth in Section 9.10(j), neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates shall assume any Liability with respect to any employee benefit plan of any kind or nature currently or formerly sponsored by, maintained by or contributed to by Seller or any ERISA Affiliate or any “withdrawal liability” or any other Liability with respect to any “multiemployer plan” (as such terms are defined under ERISA).

(ii)

Buyer will indemnify and keep indemnified Seller and the Selling Affiliates from and against all Employment Losses arising from Buyer’s failure to perform and discharge any such obligations and against all Employment Losses in respect of the Scheduled Employees (including claims brought on their behalf) arising out of or as a result of any act or omission by Buyer or any of the Buyer’s Affiliates relating to an Scheduled Employee occurring on or after the Employee Movement Date.

(C) Seller’s Indemnity in respect of the Scheduled Employees. Seller will indemnify and keep indemnified Buyer and the Buyer Affiliates against all Employment Losses arising from:

(w) any act or omission relating to any Scheduled Employee of Seller having its origin prior to the Employee Movement Date save simply for the accrual of service before that date,

(x) any claim by a Scheduled Employee or employee representative or employee representative body of any Scheduled Employee that either

party has failed to inform and consult pursuant to the ARD in relation to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Buyer agrees to inform Seller of any measures which it proposes to take in relation to the Scheduled Employees,

(y) any claim by a Scheduled Employee whose employment or engagement is terminated by Seller or any of the Selling Affiliates prior to the Employee Movement Date, and

(z) any claim by any individual in connection with the ARD, in relation to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, save as expressly provided elsewhere in this Section 9.10, provided that Buyer and the Buyer Affiliates shall provide all reasonable assistance to Seller and the Selling Affiliates and take all reasonable steps to minimize the Employment Losses and employment costs and to take all reasonable steps to mitigate the Seller’s liability under this Section 9.10.

(D) Undisclosed Employees. If any person other than a Scheduled Employee (an “Undisclosed Employee”) alleges that as a result (whether directly or indirectly) of the sale of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement his contract of employment, or any liability in connection with his employment, has transferred to Buyer, or to an agent or contractor of Buyer or the Buyer Affiliates, pursuant to the ARD then Buyer may terminate the employment of such Undisclosed Employee and Seller shall indemnify Buyer on an ongoing basis against all Employment Losses and employment costs (including but not limited to the cost of salary, benefits, termination, costs and Tax) which Buyer or the Buyer Affiliates may incur in relation to the employment of such Undisclosed Employee, whether such Employment Losses relate to a period before or after the Employee Movement Date, including, without limitation: (x) any Employment Losses arising from the termination of the employment of such an Undisclosed Employee, (y) any Employment Losses arising from the ongoing employment of such an Undisclosed Employee where Buyer is unable to terminate the employment lawfully, and (z) any Employment Losses and employment costs connected with or arising from the re-instatement or re-engagement of such an Undisclosed Employee where a tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction makes an order that such an Undisclosed Employee should be re-instated or re-engaged by Buyer; provided that Buyer and the Buyer Affiliates shall provide all reasonable assistance to Seller and the

- 38 -

Selling Affiliates and take all reasonable steps to minimize the Employment Losses and employment costs and to take all reasonable steps to mitigate Seller’s liability under this Section 9.10. If, as a result of the ARD, the contract of employment of any person other than a Scheduled Employee transfers, or is alleged to have transferred, to the Buyer pursuant to the ARD Buyer agrees to inform Seller of this as soon as is reasonably practicable.

(E) Terms and conditions. Buyer will indemnify and keep indemnified Seller and the Seller’s Affiliates from and against all Employment Losses in respect of the Scheduled Employees arising out of or as a result of any claim arising out of any change to any benefit, term or condition or working of any Scheduled Employee arising on or after the Employee Movement Date.

(b) Mutual Cooperation. Subject to applicable law (including any privacy laws), Seller shall provide promptly to Buyer, at the Buyer’s request, any information or copies of personnel records (including addresses, dates of birth, dates of hire and dependent information) relating to the Scheduled Employees or relating to the service of Scheduled Employees with Seller (and predecessors of Seller) prior to the Closing Date. Seller and Buyer shall each cooperate with the other and shall provide to the other such documentation, information and assistance as is reasonably necessary to effect the provisions of this Section 9.10.

(c) Additional Covenants. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 9.10, Seller shall retain all Liabilities in respect of any employee benefit plan of any kind or nature which it has sponsored, sponsors, has contributed to or contributes to, whether incurred on, prior to, or after the Closing Date. No assets or liabilities of any employee benefit plan shall be transferred to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or any employee benefit plan maintained by any of them except as specified in Section 9.10(j) and this Section 9.10(c). All claims incurred by Scheduled Employees or their covered dependents on or prior to the Closing Date under any employee benefit plan sponsored by Seller or to which Seller contributes shall be covered pursuant to the terms and conditions of such benefit plans. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) a claim for health benefits will be deemed to have been incurred on the date on which the related medical service or material was rendered to or received by the individual claiming such benefit, (ii) a claim for sickness, accident or disability benefits based on an injury or illness occurring on or prior to the Closing Date will be deemed to have been incurred prior to the Closing Date and (iii) in the case of any claim for benefits other than sickness, accident or disability benefits (e.g., life insurance benefits), a claim will be deemed to have been incurred upon the occurrence of the event giving rise to such claim.

(d) Vacation Benefits. To the extent required by applicable State law or in accordance with the terms of any applicable vacation policy, upon termination of employment, in connection with the Closing, Seller shall pay each Transferred Employee for any vacation days earned or accrued (including any vacation days previously deferred, e.g., banked vacation days, but excluding any vacation days taken) through the Closing. Upon termination of employment, in connection with the Closing, Seller shall pay each non-U.S. Employee (i.e., those employee that are identified by referenced to any country other than the United States in Schedule 9.10) for any vacation days earned or accrued (including any vacation days previously deferred, e.g., banked vacation days, but excluding any vacation days taken) through the Closing, regardless of whether such accrued vacation days are normally payable upon termination of employment pursuant to the terms of any applicable vacation plan, policy or arrangement. For purposes of determining each Transferred Employee’s eligibility for and future accruals of vacation days under the vacation policy of Buyer and its Affiliates, Buyer shall provide Transferred Employees with credit for employment service with Seller and its Affiliates.

- 39 -

(e) Options. Following the Closing, Scheduled Employees holding vested outstanding Options shall be given the opportunity exercise such Options in accordance with the Option Plan, and at Closing, unvested Options held by the Scheduled Employees shall terminate.

(f) No Third Party Rights. It is understood and agreed between the parties that all provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to employee benefit plans or employee compensation are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties hereto and do not and shall not create any right in any other Person, including, but not limited to, any Transferred Employees, any participant in any benefit or compensation plan or any beneficiary thereof. The covenants contained in this Section 9.10 do not constitute a modification or amendment of any employee benefit plan of Buyer.

(g) Bonuses. As of the Closing Date, Seller shall reasonably calculate and shall pay to each Scheduled Employee all bonuses (including long-term incentive bonuses) payable with respect to each fiscal year ending prior to the Closing Date, to the extent that such bonuses have not been paid in full as of the Closing Date. Seller shall also pay to each Scheduled Employee in accordance with the terms of the sales commission plans, all sales commissions under contracts that have been signed prior to the Closing Date and with respect to which payment is received no later than 90 days subsequent to the

Closing Date, in each case disregarding any requirement that payment for such sales has been received on any date prior to the 90th day following the Closing Date.

(h) Payroll Taxes. The Parties agree that the payroll taxes of the Transferred Employees in the United States shall be treated in accordance with the Standard Procedure of Section 4 of Revenue Procedure 2004-53.

(i) Flexible Spending Accounts. All health care and dependent care flexible spending accounts (for claims incurred in 2009) maintained with respect to Scheduled Employees under any cafeteria plan maintained by Seller or its Affiliates (“Seller’s FSA Plan”) shall be transferred to a cafeteria plan sponsored by Buyer or its Affiliates (“Buyer’s FSA Plan”) and Seller shall, as of the Closing Date (and applicable transfer dates thereafter for Inactive Employees who become Transferred Employees). Buyer shall cause each Transferred Employee whose account balances are transferred to be immediately covered under Buyer’s FSA Plan with a credit for the transferred amount, and such participation shall be subject to each Transferred Employee’s 2009 salary reduction elections made under the Seller’s FSA Plan. The Buyer’s FSA Plan shall treat all Transferred Employees’ coverage as being a continuation of their coverage under the Seller’s FSA Plan for the 2009 plan year, including coverage of all eligible expenses incurred but not reimbursed prior to the Closing Date. To the extent that a Transferred Employee experiences a “qualifying event” under COBRA after his or her account balance has been transferred to Buyer’s FSA Plan, the Buyer’s FSA Plan shall satisfy the applicable requirements of Q&A-8 in Treasury Regulation Section 54.4980B-2 with respect to the health care spending account.

(j) Defined Contribution Plans. Seller shall make, as and when due, all employee and required employer contributions with respect to the Transferred Employees’ employment service rendered prior to the Closing to Seller’s 401(k) plan (the “Seller 401(k) Plan”). To the extent permitted by the Code, the Buyer’s 401(k) plan will accept a direct rollover, in the form of cash, of the vested account balances of the Transferred Employees who elect a transfer from the Seller 401(k) Plan. Following the Closing Date, Seller will permit Transferred Employees with plan loans under the Seller 401(k) Plan to continue to repay such loans and will not place such plan loans into default unless the Transferred Employees fail to make periodic payments on a timely basis, consistent with the current loan amortization schedule in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(k) COBRA. Seller is wholly responsible for complying with all applicable health care continuation coverage requirements under COBRA with respect to the employees of Seller as to qualifying events that occur on or prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer is wholly responsible for

- 40 -

complying with such coverage requirements with respect to employees employed by Buyer from and after the Closing Date who have qualifying events that occur after the Closing.

(l) Expenses. Seller shall reimburse each Scheduled Employee for any reimbursable expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date that are submitted to Seller within 30 days after the Closing.

(m) Employment. Seller acknowledges and agrees that (i) between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Seller shall, or cause a Selling Affiliate to, continue to employ each Scheduled Employee except to the extent of any terminations for “cause”, and (ii) after the Closing Date, Seller shall, or cause a Selling Affiliate to, cease to provide employment to each Scheduled Employee and shall not offer any new employment or job reassignment or transfer to each Scheduled Employee during the six (6) months immediately following the Closing Date.

9.11 Payments With Respect to Fees. Fifteen (15) days following the end of each month, Seller (or a Selling Affiliate, to the extent applicable) shall promptly remit to Buyer (or a Buyer Affiliate, to the extent applicable) all monies received by Seller or any of its Affiliates (including a Selling Affiliate) following the Closing Date for any revenues (other than deferred license fees paid pursuant to any invoice issued on or after the Closing Date pursuant to any Purchased Contract) less 7.5% of the amount of such fees. Payments remitted to Buyer pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall be in the form received. Fifteen (15) days following the end of each month, Buyer (or a Buyer Affiliate, to the extent applicable) shall promptly remit to Seller (or a Selling Affiliate, to the extent applicable) all monies received by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including a Buyer Affiliate) following the Closing Date for invoiced deferred license fees paid pursuant to any Purchased Contract (prior to any renewal thereof) closed prior to the Closing Date, less 7.5% of the amount of such fees. Payments remitted to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall be in the form received. To the extent each Party owes the other money under this Section 9.11, the Parties may net the amounts owed to each other. All remittances made to either Party pursuant to this Section 9.11 shall exclude Taxes collected for the purpose of being remitted to a governmental authority.

9.12 Recordation of Transfer of Proprietary Rights. Buyer shall, at its sole expense, be responsible for recordations of the assignment of Proprietary Rights in the discretion of Buyer.

9.13 Trademarks; Tradenames; Domain Names. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Seller shall eliminate the use of all of the trademarks, trade names and service marks included in the Purchased Assets (excluding, for avoidance of doubt, Seller’s own name and derivations thereof not confusingly similar to those of the Products), in any of their forms or spellings, on all advertising, stationery, business cards, checks, purchase orders, acknowledgments, customer agreements and other contracts, business documents and marketing materials and Seller’s website; provided, however, that Seller shall be entitled to use such trademarks, trade names and service marks to the extent reasonably necessary to wind down and liquidate its business or to deal with Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities. Buyer shall not use Seller’s name or Seller’s retained trademarks, trade names or service marks, except that it shall be entitled to use the foregoing to the extent included on assets constituting Purchased Assets (e.g., to run off existing supplies of correspondence or advertising, promotional or other materials).

9.14 Customer Litigation. Without the prior written consent of Buyer, which shall not be unreasonably withheld after taking into account each Party’s respective benefits and burdens under the relevant Contract, Seller acknowledges and agrees that neither it nor any of the Selling Affiliates, shall initiate or threaten any actions, suits, charges, complaints, arbitrations, grievances, orders, judgments, decrees, investigations or other proceedings against a customer or licensee under any of the provisions of any Purchased Contract or Resulting Exclusive Contract (or prior to the assignment of a Contract that constitutes or would give rise to a Partially Assigned Contract, under the portion of such Contract relating

- 41 -

to the Products), other than the purpose of (i) collecting accounts receivable arising thereunder following pursuit of other customary methods to collect the same, and (ii) pursuing infringement of Proprietary Rights not related to the Products pursuant to a Purchased Contract.

10.3 Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of Seller and Buyer.

10.4 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

10.5 Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any person. Subject to Section 8.2(k), if any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. In addition, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that any Purchase Price adjustments as a result of the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other of the Transaction Documents do not prejudice or limit in any respect whatsoever any Party’s rights to indemnification under any other provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, except to the extent that such a recovery would result in a duplication of damages. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation regardless of whether such words are included in some contexts but not others.

10.6 Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit, characterize or in any way affect any provision of this Agreement, and all provisions of this Agreement shall be enforced and construed as if no caption had been used in this Agreement.

10.7 Entire Agreement. The Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.9 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

10.10 Bulk Transfer Laws. Buyer hereby waives compliance by Seller with the provisions of any so-called bulk transfer laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets. Seller agrees to indemnify Buyer against all liability, damage or expense which Buyer may suffer due to the failure to so comply or to provide notice required by any such law.

10.11 Consent to Jurisdiction. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN ANY ACTION BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT

BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT, AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH ACTION. THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THE MAILING BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, OF ANY PROCESS REQUIRED BY ANY SUCH COURT SHALL CONSTITUTE VALID AND LAWFUL SERVICE OF PROCESS AGAINST THEM, WITHOUT NECESSITY FOR SERVICE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PROVIDED BY STATUTE OR RULE OF COURT.

10.12 Delivery by Facsimile. This Agreement and any Transaction Document, and any amendments hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic transmission in pdf format, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effects as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto or to any such contract, each other Party hereto or thereto shall re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties. No Party

hereto or to any such contract shall raise the use of a facsimile machine or electronic transmission in pdf format to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or contract was transmitted or communicated through the use of facsimile machine or electronic transmission in pdf format as a defense to the formation of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

10.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE, IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Any disclosure made in any section of these Disclosure Schedules shall be treated as disclosed with respect to another Schedule if it would be readily apparent to a reasonable person that such disclosure also is responsive to the specific representation or warranty to which such other Schedule responds. The listing of any disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule (as set forth on the date of this Agreement or as set forth on any supplement or amendment to the Disclosure Schedules made at any time hereafter as provided in Section 4.1(c)) shall not constitute any

- 44 -

acknowledgement regarding the materiality of such disclosure. The headings contained in the Disclosure Schedule are for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify or influence the interpretation of the information contained in the Disclosure Schedule or this Agreement. The disclosure of a particular item of information in the Disclosure Schedule shall not be taken as an admission by Seller or Selling Affiliates that the disclosure is required to be made under the terms of any such representation or warranty. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedules hereto shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with reasonable particularity and describes the relevant facts in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself).
