MASTER AGREEMENT

This Master Agreement (together with the Exhibits, Schedules and Disclosure Letters hereto, this “Agreement”) is made as of the 4th day of March, 2013, by and among ConAgra Foods, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Oracle”), Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxx”), CHS Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Iris”), and HM Luxembourg S.à x.x., a Luxembourg S.à x.x. (“Newco”). Oracle, Xxxxxx and Xxxx are each referred to herein individually as a “Parent” and collectively as the “Parents.” The Parents and Newco are each referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.” Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein will have the respective meanings assigned to them in Article X.

RECITALS

1. Each of the Parents and certain of their respective Affiliates are engaged in, among other things, the Business.

2. The Parents desire to enter into, and to cause certain of their respective Affiliates to enter into, a series of arrangements regarding their respective Businesses, including the following, in each case as further provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents:

A. forming a joint venture structure that combines their respective Businesses in Newco and the Contributed Subsidiaries; and

B. providing various services to Newco and/or the Contributed Subsidiaries, including, risk management, origination, marketing and transition services.

3. Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties are entering into an Employee Matters Agreement.

Accordingly, the Parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

I.
THE JOINT VENTURE

1.01 Formation and Operation of the Joint Venture.

(a) Prior to the Closing, (i) Watson will complete or cause to be completed a reorganization of the Xxxxxx Group in the manner set forth on Schedule 1.01(a)(i) or in a manner that results in the same legal structure that would have otherwise resulted from the steps described in Schedule 1.01(a)(i) and that does not have any materially adverse Tax consequence on Newco or the other Parties relative to the consequences resulting from the steps on Schedule 1.01(a)(i) (the “Xxxxxx Reorganization”); (ii) Iris will complete or cause to be completed a reorganization of the Iris Group in the manner set forth on Schedule 1.01(a)(ii) or in a manner that results in the same legal structure that would have otherwise resulted from the steps described in Schedule 1.01(a)(ii) and that does not have any materially adverse Tax consequence on Newco or the other Parties relative to the consequences resulting from the steps on Schedule 1.01(a)(ii) (the “Iris Reorganization”); and (iii) Oracle will complete or cause to be completed a reorganization of the Oracle Group in the manner set forth on Schedule 1.01(a)(iii) or in a manner that results in the same legal structure that would have otherwise resulted from the steps described in Schedule 1.01(a)(iii) and that does not have any materially adverse Tax consequence on Newco or the other Parties relative to the consequences resulting from the steps on Schedule 1.01(a)(iii) (the “Oracle Reorganization” and, together with the Xxxxxx Reorganization and the Iris Reorganization, the “Reorganizations”). The Reorganizations will be conducted in compliance with all applicable Laws.

(b) Upon the commencement of the Closing, the Parties will take or cause to be taken the following actions:

(i) First, Xxxxxx and Xxxx will Convey to Newco all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Sky.

(ii) Next, on the following Business Day, (A) Oracle Lux will Convey to Newco all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Oracle Netherlands, and (B) immediately following such Conveyance, Oracle Lux, Xxxxxx and Iris will adopt the Newco Articles.

(iii) Next, (A) Oracle Lux, Xxxxxx Lux and Xxxx Xxx will contribute all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in their respective Holdcos to Newco, and (B) Xxxxxx Lux and Xxxx Xxx will Convey to Newco all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Sky Canada. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the foregoing step in clause (A) will only take place after the contributions contemplated by the Contribution Agreements will have been consummated as provided therein.

(iv) Next, Xxxxxx will Convey to Xxxxxx Lux and Iris will Convey to Xxxx Xxx all of their respective Shares of Newco.

(v) Next, (A) Newco will cause each Holdco to merge with and into Sky, and (B) Newco will contribute all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Sky Canada to Oracle Netherlands.

(vi) Next, Newco will adopt the Sky Charter, and the Oracle Netherlands Charter.

(vii) Next, Oracle Netherlands will adopt the Sky Canada Charter and Oracle Puerto Rico Charter.

(viii) Next, the financing and distributions contemplated by Section 5.12 will be completed.

(c) The Parties will cause the above sequence of events to occur as close together in time as possible, taking into account the objectives of the Parties in planning the restructuring steps in the manner described, over consecutive Business Days, provided, however, that the events contemplated by paragraphs (b)(i) and (b)(ii) above will occur one Business Day apart, as specified therein.

1.02 Initial Ownership of Newco. Simultaneously with the Conveyances contemplated by (ii) and (iii) of Sections 1.01(b) and in further consideration of the transactions contemplated to occur in clauses (iv)-(viii) of Section 1.01(b), Newco will issue Shares to Oracle Lux, Xxxxxx Lux and Xxxx Xxx as may be necessary such that, after giving effect to such issuance and the transactions contemplated by Section 1.01(b)(viii), (a) Oracle Lux will own all right, title and interest to a number of Shares (the “Oracle Interests”) constituting a 44% ownership interest in Newco (the “Oracle Percentage Interest”), (b) Xxxxxx Lux will own all right, title and interest to a number of Shares (the “Xxxxxx Interests”) constituting a 44% ownership interest in Newco (the “Xxxxxx Percentage Interest”), which Xxxxxx Percentage Interest shall be held solely by Xxxxxx Lux following the Conveyance contemplated by Section 1.01(b)(iv), and (c) Xxxx Xxx will own all right, title and interest to a number of Shares (the “Iris Interests”) constituting a 12% ownership interest in Newco (the “Iris Percentage Interest”), which Iris Percentage Interest shall be held solely by Xxxx Xxx following the Conveyance contemplated by Section 1.01(b)(iv).

1.03 Shared Assets.

(a) Identification of Shared Assets.

(i) Shared Assets Schedule. No later than 60 days after the date of this Agreement, each Parent will prepare and deliver to the other Parents a schedule of all of the Shared Assets of such Parent’s Group (the “Shared Assets Schedules”). Each Shared Assets Schedule will be current as of the date of this Agreement or such later date as may be specified thereon. Each Shared Assets Schedule will be prepared by the applicable Parent in good faith and using its reasonable best efforts, and will be as detailed

- 2 -

as reasonably practicable (it being understood that in some cases, it may be necessary to describe certain types of Assets by means of a narrative description of the category of Asset rather than an Asset-by-Asset listing).

(ii) Updates to Shared Assets Schedules. From and after the date all of the Shared Assets Schedules are delivered pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 1.03(a) and until the Closing, the Parents will work together in good faith and using their respective reasonable best efforts to revise and update the Shared Assets Schedules on a reasonably frequent periodic basis to reflect (A) the addition of any Shared Assets that were wrongly omitted from the previously delivered drafts of the Shared Assets Schedules or that were subsequently acquired, received or otherwise obtained by any member of the applicable Parent’s Group subsequent to the effective date of the previously delivered draft of the applicable Shared Assets Schedule, and (B) the deletion of any Shared Assets that were wrongly included in the previously delivered drafts of the Shared Assets Schedules or that expired or were sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any member of the applicable Parent’s Group subsequent to the effective date of the previously delivered draft of the applicable Shared Assets Schedule. The Shared Assets as of the Closing Date are referred to as the “Closing Shared Assets.”

(b) Treatment of Shared Assets. Except as otherwise expressly provided in, or contemplated by, any of the other Transaction Documents (it being understood that any Asset that will be made available by any Parent’s Group to Newco or any Contributed Subsidiary following the Closing pursuant to any other Transaction Document will not be considered a Shared Asset under this Agreement), each Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to make available, or cause to be made available, its respective Closing Shared Assets to the Contributed Subsidiaries from and after the Closing Date until the earlier of (i) the expiration or termination of the Transition Services Agreement to which such Parent is a party, or (ii) the date upon which such Parent no longer owns, holds, possesses or otherwise has rights to such Closing Shared Asset, in each case to the extent previously made available to the Business of such Parent’s Group, as applicable, prior to the Closing Date. As used in this Section 1.03, “to the extent previously made available” means, with respect to any Shared Asset, the extent to which such Shared Asset was provided to, or was used in the conduct and operation of, a Parent’s Group’s Business, in the Ordinary Course of Business prior to the Closing Date (it being understood that “extent” will mean, in all material respects, the amount, level, frequency, responsiveness, functionality and quality). Each such Shared Asset will be made available to the Contributed Subsidiaries on the same economic terms (including with respect to any internal transfer pricing and cost allocations, or lack thereof, as reflected in each applicable Contributed Subsidiary’s Interim Financial Statements) as those on which such Shared Asset has been historically made available by the applicable Parent (or any member of such Parent’s Group).

(i) In General. From and after the date hereof, each Parent will (A) use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to maintain its Shared Assets, including with respect to condition, functionality and fitness for intended use, and make such capital improvements with respect to such Assets as it would make in the Ordinary Course of Business in the absence of the Contemplated Transactions, (B) refrain from divesting or otherwise disposing of any material Closing Shared Asset to a third-party without making provision for such material Closing Shared Asset (or a reasonably equivalent substitute therefor) to continue to be made available to the applicable Contributed Subsidiary on the same terms provided in this Section 1.03, (C) use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to preserve intact, and maintain the effectiveness and validity of, in all material respects, all Intellectual Property and Governmental Approvals that are Shared Assets, (D) use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to comply in all material respects with the terms of Contracts that are Shared Assets and preserve intact the effectiveness thereof, and (E) otherwise use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to preserve intact in all material respects the Shared Assets.

(ii) Renewals/Extensions/Continuations. From and after the date hereof until the third anniversary of the Closing, each Parent will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to renew, extend or otherwise continue any Shared Asset that would otherwise expire or terminate prior to the third

- 3 -

anniversary of the Closing (it being understood that such renewal or extension may be only until the third anniversary of the Closing).

(iii) Abandonment. Prior to the Closing, no Parent will dispose of a Shared Asset to an unaffiliated third-party in any non-bona fide transaction without the consent of the other Parents. From and after the Closing until the third anniversary of the Closing, if a Parent no longer wishes to maintain, or otherwise wishes to abandon, a Shared Asset, such Parent will notify Newco at least 20 Business Days prior to taking any action to abandon or otherwise give up its rights or ownership to such Shared Asset (or such shorter of period of advance notice to which Newco may consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In such circumstance Newco may elect, by the delivery of written notice to such Parent, to take ownership, directly or indirectly through any Contributed Subsidiary, of such Shared Asset (in which case such Parent will tender such Shared Asset to such Person as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in which circumstance such Person will be promptly reimburse such Parent for any out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such Parent in connection with such transfer).

1.04 Balance Sheet Adjustment.

(a) Estimate Statement. No less than 10 Business Days prior to the Closing Date, each of Oracle and Xxxxxx will provide to each other (each with a copy to Iris) of a statement (each individually, an “Estimate Statement”) with such Parent’s good faith estimate of the Closing Working Capital of Oracle and Closing Working Capital of Sky, respectively (the “Estimated Oracle Closing Working Capital” and the “Estimated Sky Closing Working Capital,” respectively). Each Estimate Statement will be prepared by such Parent on an unaudited basis, and all calculations thereon will utilize the same presentation format, apply the same accounting principles, practices, methodologies and policies as are utilized in the Financial Statements of Oracle or Sky, as the case may be (the “Accounting Principles”), and will be adjusted for any mutually agreed and commercially reasonable adjustments (with the Parties agreeing to negotiate in good faith) related to material differences between the Parents’ Accounting Principles (which may include changes to Schedule 1.04.1 and Schedule 1.04.2). Following the delivery of the Estimate Statements, the Parties will work together, including making arrangements for the relevant Parent (or a Subsidiary thereof, including the applicable Shareholder) (such Person, the “Retaining Person”) to retain the benefits and burdens of ownership with respect to an identified dollar amount of receivables or payables (and this may include retaining ownership of such receivables or payables for Tax purposes or otherwise), to ensure that the working capital balances as estimated above that are to be contributed as part of the Contemplated Transactions equal relative contributions of 44% Oracle, 44% Xxxxxx, and 12% Sky. Any receivable or payable balance retained by a Parent (or a Subsidiary thereof, including the applicable Shareholder) pursuant to this Section 1.04(a) shall be treated as never having been transferred to Newco and, to the extent that Newco comes to hold nominal title to any such receivable or payable, Newco shall be deemed to have acted as the agent of the Retaining Person with respect to such receivable or payable and therefore shall not report the taxable income associated with such receivable or payable but instead shall provide to the Parent information to permit the Retaining Person to report such amount on its own tax return. Any amounts paid or received by Newco with respect to such receivables or payables shall be first allocated by Newco to the retained amounts until all amounts required to be paid have been paid by Newco or amounts to be received have been collected and transferred to the applicable Retaining Person.

(b) Final Statement. No later than 60 days after the Closing Date, Oracle and Xxxxxx will cause to be prepared and delivered to each other Parent a statement of the Closing Working Capital of Oracle and Closing Working Capital of Sky, respectively (each, a “Final Statement,” and such Closing Working Capital amounts, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.04, with respect to Oracle, the “Final Oracle Closing Working Capital”, with respect to Sky, the “Final Sky Closing Working Capital” and, each individually, a “Final Closing Working Capital Amount”). Each Final Statement will be prepared by such Parent on an unaudited basis and apply the applicable Accounting Principles and adjustments, if any, agreed under Section 1.04(a). If either Oracle, on the one hand, or Xxxxxx and Xxxx, on the other hand, disagree with the other side’s (it being understood that references to “side” in this Section 1.04 will be deemed to be to Oracle, on the one hand, or Xxxxxx and Iris, on the other hand) calculation of any of the items in such other side’s Final Statement as delivered, the disagreeing side may, within 60 days after delivery of such Final Statement by the other side, deliver a written notice to such other Parent(s) that specifies in reasonable detail the items or amounts disputed, the basis therefor and the value proposed

- 4 -

to be assigned to such items or amounts (an “Objection Notice”). A side will be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts for which no Objection Notice is delivered within such 60-day period. If an Objection Notice is delivered by either side, the Parents will, during the 60 days following delivery of the Objection Notice, promptly begin discussions in an attempt to agree on a calculation of the disputed Closing Working Capital amount. For purposes of complying with the terms set forth in this Section 1.04, each Parent will cooperate with and make available to the other Parents and their representatives as promptly as practicable in consideration of the time requirements set forth in this Section 1.04 all information, records, data and working papers, and will permit access to its facilities and personnel, as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation and analysis of the calculations of a Closing Working Capital amount, including with respect to any valuations or calculations to be performed in connection therewith. The Parents will jointly prepare a statement as to those items or amounts in dispute that they have agreed to and the resolution thereof. If the Parents are unable to agree upon any calculation of a Closing Working Capital amount, then Section 1.04(c) will apply.

(i) If the Parents are unable to agree upon the calculation of any Closing Working Capital amount within the 60-day period following the delivery of an Objection Notice by a Parent, then the Parents jointly will engage a mutually acceptable accounting firm of nationally recognized reputation (the “Accounting Firm”) to resolve those items or amounts that remain in dispute. Promptly, but in no event later than 60 days following its engagement, the Accounting Firm will determine, based solely on written submissions by Oracle, on the one hand, and Xxxxxx and Xxxx, on the other hand, only those issues in dispute and will render a written report as to the resolution of the dispute and the resulting computation of the disputed Closing Working Capital amount. In resolving any disputed item, the Accounting Firm will consider only those items or amounts in the applicable Final Statement as to which the Parents continue to disagree, and the Accounting Firm will be bound by the provisions of this Section 1.04 and must assign a value to each such item equal to the value for such item claimed by Oracle, on the one hand, or Xxxxxx and Iris, on the other hand. The Parents will bear the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in the following proportions: 44% for Oracle, 44% for Xxxxxx, and 12% for Iris.

(ii) Each Parent will cooperate with the Accounting Firm in its valuation process and will share any relevant materials it has regarding valuation with the Accounting Firm and the other Parents, and each Parent will cooperate in good faith to cause the Accounting Firm to deliver to the Parents within 60 Business Day of its engagement the Accounting Firm’s determination of the value of each disputed item in the computation of Closing Working Capital. The values determined in accordance with this Section 1.04(c) will be final and binding for the purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Adjustment Payments.

(i) If the Final Oracle Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.04, is greater than the Estimated Oracle Closing Working Capital, then Newco will, within 5 Business Days after such final determination, pay to Oracle the amount of such excess by the wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated in writing by Oracle. Any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1.04(d)(i) shall deemed to have been paid from the collection of receivables that shall have been deemed to have been retained by the applicable Shareholder, and not from the proceeds of any borrowing by Newco or any Subsidiary of Newco.

(ii) If the Final Oracle Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.04, is less than the Estimated Oracle Closing Working Capital, then Oracle will, within 5 Business Days after such final determination, cause Oracle Lux to pay to Newco the amount of such shortfall by the wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated in writing by Newco.

(iii) If the Final Sky Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.04, is greater than the Estimated Sky Closing Working Capital, then Newco will, within 5

- 5 -

Business Days after such final determination, pay to Xxxxxx and Xxxx the amount of such excess (split between Xxxxxx and Iris in proportion to their respective ownership in Newco) by the wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated in writing by Xxxxxx and Xxxx, respectively. Any amounts paid pursuant to this Section 1.04(d)(iii) shall deemed to have been paid from the collection of receivables that shall have been deemed to have been retained by the applicable Shareholder, and not from the proceeds of any borrowing by Newco or any Subsidiary of Newco.

(iv) If the Final Sky Closing Working Capital, as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.04, is less than the Estimated Sky Closing Working Capital, then Xxxxxx and Iris will, within 5 Business Days after such final determination, cause Xxxxxx Lux and Xxxx Xxx, as applicable, to pay to Newco the amount of such shortfall (split between Xxxxxx and Xxxx in proportion to their respective ownership in Newco) by the wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account designated in writing by Newco.

(v) Tax Treatment of Adjustment Payments. The Parents agree to treat adjustments in Section 1.04(d) as additional contributions to Newco as of the Closing Date or returns of excess contributions as of the Closing Date, as applicable, and further agree that such contributions or returns of excess contribution will be treated as nontaxable by Newco, the Parents and the Shareholders. Consistent with the provisions of the preceding sentence and of Section 1.04(a), if excess Closing Working Capital is returned to a Shareholder (because the Shareholder transferred excess Closing Working Capital to Newco), such excess amount shall be treated as having been erroneously transferred to Newco, and Newco shall be deemed to have acted as the agent of such Shareholder with respect to such excess amount and therefore shall not report the taxable income associated with such Closing Working Capital but instead shall provide to the Shareholder information to permit such Shareholder to report such amount on its own tax return. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, (i) the amount of any adjustment in Section 1.04(d) that is treated as an additional contribution to Newco shall be considered part of the Conveyances or contributions described in Section 5.08(ii) through 5.08(vi) and shall be included in the contributing Shareholder’s initial Capital Account, and (ii) the amount of any adjustment in Section 1.04(d) that is treated as a return of excess contributions shall be netted against the relevant Shareholder’s initial contribution of Closing Working Capital for purposes of determining that Shareholder’s initial Capital Account pursuant to the applicable sections of the Alliance Agreement.

II.
TRANSACTIONS AND CLOSING

2.01 Closing. The closing of the Contemplated Transactions will commence at a location mutually determined by the Parents, at 10:00 a.m., local time on the last Business Day of the calendar month following the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than those conditions that by their nature or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or, where permitted, the waiver of those conditions) or at such other time mutually determined by the Parties; provided, however that the Parties will not be required to proceed with a Closing that would take place prior to November 29, 2013 if there is a then-pending investigation by a Governmental Entity into the Contemplated Transactions as potentially violative of Antitrust Laws (for the avoidance of doubt, if such an investigation is commenced after the date hereof and then subsequently “resolved” as contemplated by Section 5.03, then from and after the date of such resolution, the investigation will no longer be considered to be pending). Except as otherwise set forth in Section 1.01(b) or Section 1.01(c), it is the intention of the Parties that the full sequence of steps set forth in Section 1.01(b) be completed on the Business Day on which the Closing is consummated to the greatest extent practicable. The Closing will not be deemed to have consummated until the full sequence of steps set forth in Section 1.01(b) has been completed. The date on which the Closing is consummated is referred to as the “Closing Date,” and the time at which the Closing is consummated is referred to as the “Closing”. For the purposes of determining the date an investigation is “resolved” in the proviso in the first sentence of this paragraph, if any divestitures are required by virtue of a settlement with the Governmental Entity, the date of such resolution shall be the date that any agreements for such divestitures have been executed and the divestitures are ready to take place.

2.02 Closing Deliveries.

(d) Items to be Delivered by Oracle. At the commencement of the Closing, Oracle will deliver, or will cause the appropriate member of the Oracle Group to deliver, to Xxxxxx, Xxxx, Newco and/or one or more specified Contributed Subsidiaries, as applicable, all of the following:

5.03 Further Assurances; Efforts to Close; Obtaining Consents.

(f) Further Assurances in General. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents, and except as may otherwise be provided herein and therein, each Party will cooperate with each other and use (and will cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to use) their reasonable best efforts, prior to, at and after the Closing Date, to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or to cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary or desirable under applicable Law or contractual obligations to consummate and make

- 24 -

effective the Contemplated Transactions as promptly as reasonably practicable, including the satisfaction of the conditions in Article VI and obtaining valuations that may be needed for accounting or other purposes. The Parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to execute and deliver, and will cause their respective Subsidiaries, as appropriate or required, to execute and deliver such other documents, certificates, agreements and other writings (provided that no Party will be required to make any additional representations, warranties or covenants, express or implied, not contained in this Agreement in any such document, certificate, agreement or other writing) and to take such other actions as may be necessary or desirable to consummate or implement the Contemplated Transactions, including the satisfaction of the conditions in Article VI.

(g) Antitrust Clearance.

(xx) The obligations of the Parents (whether for themselves or on behalf of any members of their respective Groups) to obtain any Governmental Approvals needed pursuant to any applicable Antitrust Laws to consummate the Contemplated Transactions will be covered by this Section 5.03(b). Each of the Parties will make the filings required to be made by it under any Antitrust Laws. Each of the Parties will also comply at the earliest reasonably practicable date with any valid request for additional information, documents or other materials received from any Governmental Entity.

(xxi) Each of the Parents will use its reasonable best efforts to resolve objections, if any, that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions under any Antitrust Laws. If any Proceeding is initiated (or threatened to be initiated) by a Governmental Entity challenging the Contemplated Transactions as violative of any Antitrust Law or any other applicable Law, the Parties will each cooperate to contest and resist any such Proceeding, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction, ruling, decision, finding or other Order (whether temporary, preliminary, or permanent) until such time as a final, non-appealable Order has been entered. In furtherance and not limitation of the preceding two sentences, but subject to Section 5.03(b)(iv) below, each Parent will offer to take (and if such offer is accepted, commit to take) all necessary steps to avoid or eliminate impediments under any antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions that would result in the failure of the condition set forth in Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b) to be satisfied, in each case to enable the Closing to occur by November 29, 2013 or as expeditiously thereafter as possible, including the sale, divestiture or disposition of Assets of its Business (or otherwise take any action that limits the freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, any of its businesses, product lines, or assets or those of Newco or the Contributed Subsidiaries).

(xxii) If, in order to obtain an Governmental Approval needed pursuant to any applicable Antitrust Laws to consummate the Contemplated Transactions or to avoid or eliminate impediments under any antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, a Parent is required to divest or hold separate one of its businesses or certain of its Assets that will be Conveyed to the Contributed Subsidiaries pursuant to the Contemplated Transactions (a “Disposition Order,” and the Assets to be divested or held separate, the “Divesting Assets”):

(A) The Parents will cooperate in good faith to prepare for sale and sell the Divesting Assets, either in a single transaction to one buyer or in multiple transactions to multiple buyers. Although the Parents will be permitted to enter into a divestiture agreement prior to the Closing, any sale of Divesting Assets will take place only after the Closing (in other words, the Divesting Assets will be Conveyed to the Contributed Subsidiaries pursuant to the Contemplated Transactions at the Closing and then will be subsequently sold by the relevant Contributed Subsidiary, not by the Parents). The relevant Contributed Subsidiary will be entitled to all of the proceeds of the sale. Until the sale is effected, the Contributed Subsidiary will hold the relevant Divesting Assets separate from its other businesses to the extent that doing so is necessary or desirable to obtain any Governmental Approval needed pursuant to any applicable Antitrust Laws to consummate the Contemplated Transactions or to avoid or eliminate impediments under any antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions.

- 25 -

(B) The Parents will negotiate in good faith to seek to maximize the sale price of the Divesting Assets, including with respect to the sale terms to be offered to prospective buyers of the Divesting Assets, such as representations, warranties and indemnity terms (which terms may be different than the corresponding terms contained in this Agreement). The terms of these divestiture agreements may include an assignment of Newco’s rights hereunder to indemnification in respect of the Divesting Assets to the buyer of the Divesting Assets. The Parent contributing the relevant Divesting Asset will not be required to assume liability or indemnification exposure that is greater in any material respect than the liability or indemnification exposure that the Parent would have if Newco had retained the Divesting Asset permanently.

(xxiii) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.03(b) to the contrary, no Parent will be required, in order to obtain any approvals under Antitrust Laws or to avoid or eliminate impediments under any antitrust Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, (A) to divest any material Assets that are not related to its Group’s Business or effect other material structural or behavioral changes that relate to businesses other than the Group’s Business, or (B) to divest any Assets if the aggregate divestures to collectively be made by the Parents pursuant to Section 5.03(b)(iii), taken all together, would result in the disposition of assets that would reasonably be expected to generate, in the aggregate, annual EBITDA (calculated taking into account the synergies that the Parties anticipate) expected in year three following the Closing in excess of 10% of the Go-Forward EBITDA Amount.

(xxiv) The Parents will, to the greatest extent reasonably practicable and permitted by applicable Law, prior to engaging in any substantive discussions with any representatives of a Governmental Entity concerning the Contemplated Transactions, agree upon the anticipated substance of the discussions and the content of any written materials they intend to provide to or review with such representatives, and will jointly participate in such discussions. In the event it is impracticable for a Parent to comply with its obligations in the preceding sentence, as soon as practicable following any such discussions the Parent will advise the other Parents of the discussions, the identity of the parties participating in the discussions and the substance of the discussions, and will provide the other Parents with copies of any written materials provided to, reviewed with or received from representatives of the Governmental Entity.

(h) Other Governmental Approvals and Third-Party Consents. Except with regard to Governmental Approvals relating to Antitrust Laws (which are addressed in Section 5.03(b)), to the extent that the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions requires any third-party Consents or other Governmental Approvals, the Parties will, prior to the Closing and until 18 months after the Closing, use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain such Consents or Governmental Approvals; provided, that (i) with respect to any Governmental Approval that is not identified in the Disclosure Letters (as they may be updated in accordance with Section 5.09), such 18 month period will run from the date on which the need for such Governmental Approval is determined by or notified to an officer of the applicable Contributed Subsidiary, and (ii) any such 18 month period for any particular Governmental Approval may be extended beyond 18 months at the request of the applicable Contributed Subsidiary if it agrees promptly to reimburse the relevant Parent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

5.04 Public Announcements. No Parent will issue or permit any member of their Group to issue any press release or other public announcement with respect to the Contemplated Transactions without the prior written consent of the other Parents (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as a Parent determines in good faith may be required by applicable Law (in which case, to the extent possible, the Parent making the release or statement will allow the other Parents reasonable time to comment on such release or statement in advance of such issuance); provided, however, that each of the Parents may make any filings or notifications required by the Securities and Exchange Commission or stock exchanges, and internal announcements to their respective employees that are consistent with the Parents’ prior public disclosures regarding the Contemplated Transactions, without such consent or prior review.

- 26 -

5.05 Notification of Certain Matters. Each of the Parents will give prompt written notice to the other of (a) receipt of any notice or other communication from any Person alleging that the Consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, (b) any Proceeding commenced or threatened in writing against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting it or any member of its Group that relate to the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, and (c) to the Knowledge of such Parent, any change that is reasonably expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to its Group’s Business.

5.06 Access; Confidentiality.

(a) From the date hereof to the Closing, each Parent will allow all designated Representatives of the other Parents access at reasonable times upon reasonable notice and in a manner as will not adversely impact the conduct of the respective businesses of such Parent to the personnel, records, files, correspondence, audits and properties, as well as to all information relating to commitments, contracts, titles and financial position, or otherwise pertaining to the Business of such Parent’s Group; provided, however, that no investigation pursuant to this Section 5.06(a) will affect any representation or warranty given by such Parent hereunder, and provided, further, that notwithstanding the provision of information by such Parent or its Affiliates or Representatives or investigation by the other Parties or their Representatives, such Parent will not be deemed to make any representation or warranty except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Parent will be required to provide any information which it reasonably believes it may not provide to another Parent by reason of applicable Law, which such Parent reasonably believes constitutes information protected by attorney/client privilege or which it is required to keep confidential by reason of Contracts with third parties, (ii) no Parent will be required to provide any records, writings or other materials of the Contributing Parties relating to or including (A) any personnel files, (B) performance review materials or any information that relates to an employee’s participation in bonus plans or similar incentive compensation arrangements, (C) medical records, hiring records, affirmative action plans or workers compensation files, or (D) that are otherwise subject to restrictions on transfer pursuant to applicable Laws regarding personally identifiable information or subject to privacy policies regarding personally identifiable information or with respect to which transfer would require any Governmental Approval under applicable Law, and (iii) no Parent will be required to provide access to any of its Group’s properties, without such Parent’s written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, except as otherwise contemplated by Section 5.07 of this Agreement. The applicable Parent will make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements under circumstances in which the restrictions of the preceding sentence apply. Each Parent agrees that it will not, and will cause its Representatives not to, use any information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.06 for any purpose unrelated to the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.

(b) With respect to the information disclosed pursuant to this Section 5.06, the Parties will comply with, and cause their respective representatives to comply with, all of their obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement.

5.07 Real Property Reviews.

(f) Real Estate Review.

(i) Title Commitments. Within 20 Business Days after the date hereof, the Parents will jointly retain one or more title companies to prepare title commitments for all of the Contributed Subsidiaries’ Owned Real Property and each of the other properties set forth on Schedule 5.07(a)(i) (all such properties for which title commitments are received, the “Title Reviewed Properties”). The title companies will be jointly selected by the Parents in good faith and will be reputable and of a size commensurate for the nature of the properties being evaluated. The Parents will direct the title companies to prepare the title commitments as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any case within 30 Business Days of their retention. The Parents will share the costs of the title commitments as follows: 44% for each of Oracle and Xxxxxx, and 12% for Iris.

(ii) Surveys. Within 20 Business Days after the date hereof, the Parents will obtain price quotes from no less than two nationally recognized ALTA surveying coordinators to perform ALTA

- 27 -

surveys and aerial surveys of the Title Reviewed Properties (or such survey equivalents that would allow the issuance of extended coverage title policies). The Parents will jointly select the ALTA surveying coordinators to provide price quotes in good faith, and will jointly engage the ALTA surveying coordinator that provides the lowest aggregate price quote, unless the Parents agree otherwise. The Parents will direct the engaged ALTA surveying coordinators to prepare the surveys of the Title Reviewed Properties as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any case within 40 Business Days of the ALTA surveyors’ receipt of the title commitments. The surveys to be utilized will be aerial surveys to the extent that (i) the zoning reports contemplated by clause (iv) can be obtained utilizing aerial surveys and (ii) be used to obtain the same amount of title insurance coverage as non-aerial surveys. The Parents will share the costs of the ALTA surveying coordinator and surveys in the same proportions as those set forth for the title commitments.

(iii) Resolution of Liens. Upon receipt of the title commitments and surveys referenced in clauses (i) and (ii) above and zoning reports referenced in clause (iv) below, the Parents will jointly retain coordinating legal counsel (“Coordinating Counsel”) to review and prepare a summary of any Liens on the Title Reviewed Properties other than Permitted Liens and to distribute such summary to the Parents. To the extent that any Liens (other than Permitted Liens) are identified, either Oracle (with respect to Title Reviewed Properties that are owned or contributed by the Oracle Group) or Xxxxxx and Xxxx (with respect to Title Reviewed Properties that are owned or contributed by the Xxxxxx Group or Iris Group) will be responsible for removing such Liens (or obtaining affirmative title insurance over such Liens) prior to the Closing Date, and will be 100% responsible for any costs associated with doing so. The Parents will direct Coordinating Counsel to monitor these efforts and to report back to each of the Parents on the progress made in removing any such Liens. The Parents will also direct Coordinating Counsel to prepare deeds and other necessary transfer documentation for the conveyance of real property in connection with the Contemplated Transactions. The Parents will share the costs of such Coordinating Counsel incurred in connection with the activities described in this Section 5.07(a) in the same proportions as those set forth for the title commitments.

(iv) Zoning Reports. Within 20 Business Days after the date hereof, the Parents will jointly retain one or more zoning report service companies to prepare zoning reports for all of the Title Reviewed Properties. The zoning report service companies will be jointly selected by the Parents in good faith and will be reputable and of a size commensurate for the nature of the properties being evaluated. The Parents will direct the zoning report service companies to prepare the zoning reports as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any case within 30 Business Days of the zoning report service companies’ receipt of the surveys. The Parents will share the costs of such reports in the same proportions as those set forth for the title commitments.

(v) Engineering Reviews.

(A) Either prior to or as of the date of this Agreement, or within 10 Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Parents have jointly engaged or will jointly engage one or more mutually acceptable engineering and environmental consulting firms to perform the services specified in this Section 5.07(a)(v) and Section 5.07(b) (the “Consulting Firm”). The Parents will share the costs of the Consulting Firm in the same proportions as those set forth for the title commitments, and will each bear their other costs. During the period commencing on the date of this Agreement (or, if later, the date on which the Consulting Firm is retained) and ending 75 days thereafter (the “Review Period”), the Consulting Firm, along with up to two individuals designated by each Parent (such individuals, together with the Consulting Firm, the “Joint Review Team”) will conduct an engineering review of each Real Property that is a production facility (including bakeries) (collectively, the “Reviewed Facilities”), in accordance with the protocols and standards set forth on the scope of work attached as Exhibit D-1 (the “Engineering Reviews”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Joint Review will not conduct Engineering Reviews of any of the Reviewed Facilities that are warehouses or other ancillary, non-production sites.

- 28 -

(B) Pursuant to the Engineering Reviews, the Joint Review Team will identify whether the issues exist with respect to each Reviewed Facility that is reviewed pursuant to Section 5.07(a)(v) of a nature described in Exhibit D-1 (collectively, “Engineering Issues”).

(C) To the extent that any Engineering Issues are identified by the Joint Review Team pursuant to the Engineering Reviews during the Review Period, either Oracle (with respect to Reviewed Facilities that are owned or contributed by the Oracle Group) or Xxxxxx and Xxxx (with respect to Reviewed Facilities that are owned or contributed by the Xxxxxx Group or Iris Group) will be responsible for correcting such Engineering Issues in a commercially reasonable manner, and will be 100% responsible for any costs associated with doing so, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Oracle, on the one hand, nor Xxxxxx and Xxxx, collectively on the other hand, will be required to spend or incur direct costs (excluding any payments required to be made to the Consulting Firm) in excess of $100,000,000 in performing their respective obligations to correct such Engineering Issues (it being understood that such obligations of Xxxxxx and Sky will be undertaken by them Severally). In the event that the reasonably expected costs exceed $100,000,000, such excess may be taken into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect of the relevant Parent has taken place (in other words, such excess will be deemed a “Loss” of a nature that is not indemnifiable by the contributing Parent, and would be considered for purposes of determining whether the $100,000,000 threshold in the definition of Oracle Material Adverse Effect or Sky Material Adverse Effect, as the case may be, has been reached). Such corrections will be made as promptly as reasonably practicable, it being understood that such corrections may not be completed prior to the Closing.

(D) Decisions of the Joint Review Team will be made by consensus to the extent reasonably practicable. If the members of the Joint Review Team are unable to decide, then decisions will be made by a majority vote, where Oracle will cast one vote, Xxxxxx and Xxxx will collectively cast one vote, and the Consulting Firm will act as the tiebreaking vote.

(g) Environmental Site Reviews.

(i) Preliminary Environmental Site Assessments and Limited Compliance Reviews. During the Review Period, the Joint Review Team will perform a preliminary environmental site assessment and limited compliance review of each Reviewed Facility in accordance with the protocols and standards set forth set forth in the scope of work attached as Exhibit D-2 (the “Preliminary Environmental Site Reviews”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Joint Review Team will not conduct preliminary environmental site assessments or limited compliance reviews of any of the Reviewed Facilities that are warehouses or other ancillary sites.

(ii) Phase II Environmental Site Assessments. Following the completion of a Preliminary Environmental Site Review of a Reviewed Facility, Phase II environmental site assessments or intrusive or subsurface investigations (including excavations, drilling, boring and sampling) of soil, surface water, or groundwater will be conducted on such Reviewed Facility only as (A) required by Environmental Laws based on facts or information obtained during the Environmental Site Review, or (B) the Joint Review Team identifies a "recognized environmental condition" ("REC") as defined in ASTM E 1527-05 and estimates Response Action costs required by Environmental Law could reasonably be expected to exceed $250,000 for each REC if a Release were confirmed to exist under the most reasonably likely scenario (such Phase II reviews, together with the Preliminary Environmental Site Reviews, the “Environmental Site Reviews”).

(iii) Remediation of Releases. Any Releases identified pursuant to the Environmental Site Reviews will be subject to any applicable indemnification provisions in Section 7.01, Response Action limitations and procedures in Section 7.06(e) and other provisions in Article VII.

- 29 -

(iv) Noncompliance Obligations. Prior to Closing, each Parent will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to bring the Real Property owned, leased or contributed by such Parent’s Group into compliance with Environmental Laws that the Joint Review Team estimates could reasonably be expected to exceed $50,000 to achieve compliance with respect to each noncompliance matter. Any noncompliance identified by the Joint Review Team that has not been corrected prior to Closing will be subject to any applicable indemnification provisions in Section 7.01 and other provisions in Article VII.

5.08 Tax Matters.

(d) Each of the Parties will cooperate to complete and maintain the Contemplated Transactions, to the extent reasonably possible, in a manner that minimizes any Taxes of the Oracle Group, the Xxxxxx Group and the Iris Group.

(e) U.S. Tax Treatment. For all U.S. tax purposes, the Parties acknowledge and agree that they intend:

(vi) that Newco shall elect to be classified as a partnership effective as of the date of the formation of the Newco;

(vii) that Sky and each of the Holdcos shall be treated as disregarded as an entity separate from its owner or Newco (as applicable);

(viii) that Colorado JV shall be treated as a partnership;

(ix) that each of Oracle Netherlands, Sky Canada, and Oracle Puerto Rico shall be treated as disregarded as an entity separate from its owner or Newco (as applicable);

(x) that Oracle Rice shall be treated as a corporation.

(xi) that the Conveyances of Sky to Newco by Xxxxxx and Xxxx shall be treated as a tax-free conversion of Sky into Newco under Revenue Ruling 84-52;

(xii) that the Conveyance by Oracle Lux to Newco of all issued and outstanding equity interests in Oracle Netherlands described in Section 1.01(b)(ii) shall be treated as a transaction that qualifies for nonrecognition treatment pursuant to Section 721(a) of the Code;

(xiii) that the Conveyances described in Section 1.01(b)(iii) shall be treated as transactions that qualify for nonrecognition treatment pursuant to Section 721(a) of the Code;

(xiv) that the mergers of each the Holdcos with and into Sky described in Section 1.01(b)(v) shall be treated as disregarded transactions;

(xv) that the contribution by Newco of all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Sky Canada to Oracle Netherlands shall be treated as disregarded transactions;

(xvi) that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Xxxxxx Lux Distribution shall be treated as a debt-financed distribution that does not exceed Xxxxxx Lux’s allocable share of the Financing under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b) and therefore is not taken into account as disguised sale proceeds pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b) and shall therefore be treated as a tax-free distribution pursuant to Section 731 of the Code;

(xvii) that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Xxxx Xxx Distribution shall be treated as a debt-financed distribution that does not exceed Xxxx Xxx’x allocable share of the Financing under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b) and therefore is not taken into account as disguised sale proceeds

(xviii) that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Oracle Lux Distribution less Item F of Section 5.12(a)(ii) does not exceed Oracle Lux’s allocable share of the Financing under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b) and shall be treated as a debt-financed distribution that is not taken into account as disguised sale proceeds pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b) and shall therefore be treated as a tax-free distribution pursuant to Section 731 of the Code;

(xix) to the extent that the Oracle Lux Distribution, the Xxxxxx Lux Distribution, or the Xxxx Xxx Distribution described in Section 5.12(a)(ii) does exceed Oracle Lux's, Xxxxxx Lux's, or Xxxx Xxx'x respective allocable share of the Financing under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b), the distribution in excess of the Party’s allocable share of the Financing is intended to be and shall be treated, to the maximum extent possible, as a reimbursement of preformation capital expenditures that is not taken into account as disguised sale proceeds pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(d) and Revenue Ruling 2000-44 and shall therefore be treated, to the maximum extent possible, as a tax-free distribution pursuant to Section 731 of the Code;

(xx) that any amounts distributed under Section 5.12 of this agreement that are in excess of the distributee’s share of Newco’s net cash flow from operations within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(b) and/or are in excess of a Party’s allocable share of liability of Newco under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-5(b), in each case as reasonably determined by the Newco’s board of managers, are intended to reimburse the distributee, to the maximum extent permitted under Treasury Regulations Section 1. 707-4(d), for capital expenditures incurred during the two-year period preceding the transfer by the distributee of assets to the partnership, as reasonably determined by Newco’s board of managers, and, to that extent, are intended to qualify and shall be treated by the Parties as qualifying as a reimbursement of capital expenditures under Treasury Regulations Section 1.707-4(d) and Revenue Ruling 2000-44 and shall therefore be treated as a tax-free distribution pursuant to Section 731 of the Code; and

(xxi) that to the maximum extent permitted, any payments described in Section 7.08 shall be treated as tax-free transfers and appropriate adjustments will be made.

(f) Except as provided in Section 5.08(e), the Parties agree that any Tax Returns or any other information they may file or cause to be filed with any Governmental Entity by the Parties or their Affiliates shall be prepared and filed consistently with Section 5.08(b), unless a change in filing position is otherwise required by Law, as reasonably determined by Newco’s board of managers. The Party that is alleging that a change in filing position is required by Law shall notify Newco’s board of managers in writing at least 30 days prior to the due date for any Tax Return, including extensions. Disagreements with respect to whether a change in filing position is required by Law will be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 9.12(b).

(g) The Parties shall furnish Newco with all information that it reasonably requests to allow Newco to comply with its Tax filing obligations, including, the tax basis, fair market value, depreciation class lives, and remaining useful lives of the Contributed Assets and Contributed Obligations, as applicable.

(h) Each Parent acknowledges that reporting for financial accounting purposes may differ from U.S. federal income tax treatment, and this Section 5.08 will not prevent any Parent from appropriately reporting the Contemplated Transactions for financial accounting purposes as required under the applicable accounting standards.

(i) Straddle Period. For purposes of this Agreement, the portion of Tax with respect to the income, property or operations of any Contributed Subsidiary that is attributable to any Tax period that begins on or before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) will be apportioned between the period of the Straddle Period that extends before the Closing Date through the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Straddle Period”) and the period of the Straddle Period that extends from the day after the Closing Date to the end of

- 31 -

the Straddle Period (the “Post-Closing Straddle Period”) in accordance with this Section 5.08. The portion of such Tax attributable to the Pre-Closing Straddle Period will (a) in the case of any Taxes other than sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Pre-Closing Straddle Period and denominator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period, and (b) in the case of any sales or use taxes, value-added taxes, employment taxes, withholding taxes, and any Tax based on or measured by income, receipts or profits earned during a Straddle Period, be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Straddle Period ended on and included the Closing Date. In the case of a Tax that is (1) paid for the privilege of doing business during a period (a “Privilege Period”) and (2) computed based on business activity occurring during an accounting period ending prior to such Privilege Period, any reference to a “Tax period,” a “tax period,” or a “taxable period” will mean such accounting period and not such Privilege Period.

5.09 Schedule Updating.

(c) Initial Update. Up through and including the 120th day after the date of this Agreement, each Parent may update its Disclosure Letter by delivering such update to the other Parents, provided, however, that no updates to the sections of the Disclosure Letter pertaining to the Fundamental Reps or any sections other than those relating to representations and warranties will be permitted. These updates (“Disclosure Letter Updates”) may reflect matters that came to exist or occurred either before or after the date of this Agreement.

(d) Effect Of Initial Update; Termination Right. If the new disclosures that are included in a Disclosure Letter Update would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect such that a closing condition set forth in Section 6.02(a), Section 6.03(a) or Section 6.04(a) would not be satisfied in the absence of the Disclosure Letter Update, then any Parent, regardless of whether such Parent is the Party whose closing condition would not be satisfied, may elect to terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice of such election within 30 days of receiving such Disclosure Letter Update to the other Parents. Unless this Agreement is terminated as referenced in Section 5.09(b), then the Disclosure Letters will be deemed to be updated by the Disclosure Letter Updates for all purposes hereunder, including in respect of the closing conditions set forth in Section 6.02(a), Section 6.03(a) or Section 6.04(a) and in respect of indemnification claims made pursuant to Article VII in respect of breaches of representations and warranties.

5.10 Limited Release by the Parents. Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 5.10, effective upon the Closing, each Parent, for itself, its Affiliates and their respective successors and assigns, does hereby irrevocably, fully, finally, and forever settle, release and discharge each Contributed Subsidiary of such Parent’s Group and its successors and assigns, from and with respect to any and all claims, suits, demands, contracts, debts, obligations, Liabilities, agreements, controversies, promises, injuries, losses, costs, administrative fees and expenses, fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, wage claims, compensation claims, wrongful termination claims, public policy claims, harassment claims, retaliation claims, statutory claims, causes of action and damages whatsoever, and any rights of action of every kind, name, and nature, whether arising out of contract, tort, statute or otherwise, in law or in equity, of whatever nature, character, or description, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, that such Party ever had or now has against such Person which arise out of or relate to facts or circumstances arising prior to the Closing Date. The foregoing release will not in any manner whatsoever apply to any of the rights or remedies that (1) any Parent has or may have against another Parent, Newco, any Contributed Subsidiary or any other Person pursuant to the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any Transaction Document or any other agreement or written instrument executed in connection herewith, and including any right to bring claims or Proceedings hereunder or thereunder, in law or equity, or any right to enforce any of the terms or provisions hereunder or thereunder, and any rights to any payment, action, indemnification, specific performance or any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder, and (2) that any member of the Iris Group may have against any member of the Xxxxxx Group, or vice-versa (but in each case excluding Sky, Sky GP and Sky Canada), in respect of matters that arise prior to the Closing Date.

5.11 Certain Releases by Newco and the Contributed Subsidiaries. Immediately following each of the Second Termination Date and the Third Termination Date, Newco will, and will cause each Contributed Subsidiary

- 32 -

to, execute and deliver a release in favor of the Parents, in each case in a form reasonably acceptable to the Parents, of any and all Pre-Closing Liabilities for which the obligation of any Parent to indemnify any JV Indemnitees has expired as of such Second Termination Date or Third Termination Date.

5.12 Certain Financing Activities; Initial Distributions.

(o) The Parents will cause the following actions to take place:

(i) Contemporaneously with the Closing, one or more of Newco’s Subsidiaries will borrow funds from third-party financing sources in an aggregate amount as determined by the following formula (the “Financing”):

A = B + C₁ +D₁ - E

Where:

A = the aggregate amount to be borrowed

B = the amount agreed by Oracle and Xxxxxx acting reasonably and taking into consideration among other things, financing terms and working capital needs, which the Parties acknowledge that as of the date hereof is contemplated to be $800 million

C₁ =the Estimated Oracle Closing Working Capital

D₁ =the Estimated Sky Closing Working Capital

E = the Aggregate Working Capital Target

The Parents acknowledge that a portion of this Financing may be effected utilizing a term loan of fixed maturity, and the remainder of the Financing will be effected utilized a revolving credit facility.

(ii) Immediately after the completion of the Financing, all of the proceeds of the Financing will be distributed by the relevant Contributed Subsidiaries up to Newco. Newco will then immediately make a distribution of funds such that Oracle Lux, Xxxxxx Lux, and Xxxx Xxx will receive amounts as follows:

Oracle Lux Distribution = (B * 0.44) + F + (C₁ – C₂)

Xxxxxx Lux Distribution = (B * 0.44) + ((D₁ – D₂) * (0.44/0.56)) - F

Xxxx Xxx Distribution = (B * 0.12) + ((D₁ – D₂) * (0.12/0.56))

Where:

B has the meaning set forth in Section 5.12(a)(i), provided that such amount shall be reduced by the reimbursement payment contemplated by the last sentence of Section 5.12(b)

C₁ and D₁ have the meaning set forth in Section 5.12(a)(i)

C₂ = the Oracle Working Capital Target

D₂ = the Sky Working Capital Target

- 33 -

F = $90 million

The Parents acknowledge and agree that this distribution is being made in connection with and consideration of the Contemplated Transactions, and that no other consideration will be payable by Oracle, Xxxxxx, Xxxx or any of their Affiliates in respect thereof (and no future adjustments to any distributions to be made to Oracle, Xxxxxx, Xxxx or any of their Affiliates will be made in respect of this initial distribution).

(p) Each Parent will, and will cause its applicable Affiliates to, (i) provide direct contact between prospective lenders and the expected officers and directors of Newco and the Contributed Subsidiaries, (ii) cooperate with any necessary marketing efforts for such financing, including participation in management presentation sessions, “road shows” and sessions with rating agencies, (iii) cooperation with respect to matters relating to any pledges of collateral to take effect at the Closing in connection with such financing, (iv) obtain legal opinions to be delivered in connection with such financing, (v) secure the cooperation of the independent accountants of the relevant Businesses, including with respect to the delivery of accountants’ comfort letters, and (vi) provide such financial and other information that may be necessary or desirable in connection with such efforts. Each Parent will bear the expenses of its own personnel working on such matters, provided that any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the financing, including commitment fees and professional expenses, will be paid by the borrower from the proceeds of such Financing.

5.13 Pre-Closing Activities of Newco. Xxxxxx and Iris acknowledge and agree that neither of them nor any of their Affiliates will take any action of any type or manner in respect of Newco or cause Newco to, and Newco will not, take any action of any type or manner at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Closing without the prior written consent of Oracle, except as expressly required by this Agreement or contemplated in connection with the Contemplated Transactions.

5.14 Activities of the Contributed Subsidiaries. Each Parent will, by the Closing Date, in respect of its Contributed Subsidiaries, cause such Contributed Subsidiaries to cease to engage in any business other than the Business. This will include causing the Contributed Subsidiaries to distribute, divest or otherwise transfer out any assets that are not at least Primarily Used In The Business (other than Shared Assets) and to cause the recipient of such distributed, divested or transferred assets to assume and indemnify such Contributed Subsidiaries for any Liability arising under or relating to such assets.

5.15 Completion of Transaction Documents. During the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending (i) on April 30, 2013, for Incomplete Transaction Documents which are not Incomplete Ancillary Exhibits, and (ii) prior to the Closing, for Incomplete Ancillary Exhibits, the Parties will complete the forms of each of the Incomplete Transaction Documents, negotiating in good faith, in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.15. The Parties may also further amend other Transaction Documents as provided below.

(c) The provisions of the operating agreements for the Holdcos and Oracle Netherlands Charter will not be drafted in any manner which would alter or change the rights or responsibilities of any Person (or the allocation of rights and responsibilities among all Persons) under the Newco Charter, the Oracle Puerto Rico Charter, the Sky Charter and the Sky Canada Charter.

(d) The forms of the Oracle Puerto Rico Charter and Sky Canada Charter will each be completed to mirror the form of the Sky Charter, modified only to reflect the different applicable party names and any other changes that the Parents mutually determine in good faith are necessary to preserve tax treatment of the Contemplated Transaction as described in Section 5.08 or otherwise comply with applicable Law.

(e) The forms of the Xxxxxx Contribution Agreement and the Iris Contribution Agreement will each be completed to the mirror the form of the Oracle Contribution Agreement, modified only to reflect the different applicable party names and other changes that the Parents mutually determine in good faith are necessary to reflect the Xxxxxx Reorganization or Iris Reorganization, as applicable, so long as such changes do not affect the substantive rights and obligations contemplated by Oracle Contribution Agreement (as they would apply to Xxxxxx in the Xxxxxx Contribution Agreement and Iris in the Iris Contribution Agreement). The Xxxxxx Purchase and Sale

- 34 -

Agreement will be drafted in a form reasonably acceptable to Oracle and will contain the provisions described in Exhibit M. Annex I to each of the Contribution Agreements will be completed.

(f) The IP Matters Agreement will be drafted to reflect and be consistent with the principles and terms set forth on Exhibit J.

(g) The forms of the Xxxxxx License-In Agreement and Xxxxxx License-Out Agreement will each be completed to mirror the forms of the Oracle License-In Agreement and Oracle License-Out Agreement, modified only to reflect the different applicable party names.

(h) Oracle and Xxxxxx may mutually elect to combine the forms of the IP License Agreements into a single agreement, so long as the substantive provisions of such combined agreement contain or are consistent with all of the substantive provisions of the uncombined IP License Agreements. Oracle and Xxxxxx may also mutually elect to combine the IP Matters Agreement with such combined IP License Agreement, so long as all of the substantive provisions of the IP Matters Agreement are contained in such combined agreement.

(i) The form of the Xxxxxx Transition Services Agreement will be completed to mirror the form of the Oracle Transition Services Agreement, modified only to reflect the different applicable party names.

(j) The forms of the Commercial Agreements will be modified by the Parents to the extent necessary to address any tax and customs concerns, as mutually determined in good faith by the Parties.

(k) The Parents may modify the forms of the Transition Services Agreements as they mutually determine in good faith is necessary to incorporate Sky Canada or Oracle Puerto Rico.

5.16 Claims Against The Colorado JV And The Orchid JV. In the event that Oracle commences any Proceeding against the Colorado JV (or, if applicable, the Orchid JV), or asserts any claim or counterclaim against the Colorado JV (or, if applicable, the Orchid JV), in each case to the extent arising out of or relating to any facts or circumstances that take place prior to the Closing, the net proceeds from such claim or counterclaim will be promptly remitted to Newco.

5.17 Colorado JV Consent/Oracle Rice Consents – Alternative Arrangements. Without limiting the generality of Section 1.06 of the Contribution Agreement – Oracle, if Oracle is unable to obtain any requisite Consent to transfer the equity interests in the Colorado JV or Oracle Rice to Newco or the applicable Subsidiary of Newco, as contemplated in the Contemplated Transactions, Oracle shall enter into an alternative arrangement with Newco or such Subsidiary, which shall be mutually acceptable to the Parents, that shall convey all of the material benefits and obligations of ownership of the equity interests in the Colorado JV or Oracle Rice to Newco or such Subsidiary, as appropriate. This may include an agreement pursuant to which Oracle remits all of the profits and distributions that it receives as an equity owner in the Colorado JV or Oracle Rice to Newco or such Subsidiary, Newco or such Subsidiary agrees to perform Oracle’s obligations under the governing agreements and instruments relating to the Colorado JV or Oracle Rice, as the case may be, and Oracle enters into a voting arrangement whereby Oracle votes its equity interests in the Colorado JV or Oracle Rice as directed by Newco or such Subsidiary.

5.18 Software. In the event that any software used or held for use in the Business by any Parent’s Group is not transferred to such Parent’s Holdco under its respective Contribution Agreement or retained by Sky, such Parent will use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts from and after the Closing to assist Newco or any Contributed Subsidiary with finding and securing reasonably adequate alternative arrangements for such non-transferred software.

VII.
SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION

7.01 Indemnification by the Parents. Subject to the limitations contained in Section 7.06, from and after the Closing Date, each Parent, Severally and not jointly, will indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless each Contributed Subsidiary, Newco, any Person Controlled by the foregoing, and their respective successors and assigns (and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Representatives) (each a “JV Indemnitee” and collectively, the “JV Indemnitees”) from and against, and will reimburse, Severally and not jointly, the JV Indemnitees with respect to, any and all losses, Liabilities, claims, deficiencies, demands, judgments, damages, interest, fines, penalties, suits, actions, causes of action, assessments, awards, costs and expenses (including reasonable costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys’ fees, but excluding (i) non-foreseeable consequential damages, including any damages that are remote or speculative in nature, or any damages attributable to any changes in the stock price of publicly traded securities of any member of such Parent’s Group, and (ii) exemplary and punitive damages, except, in the case of either clause (i) or clause (ii), to the extent payable in connection with a Third-Party Claim) (collectively, “Losses”) that result from, relate to or arise out of, whether prior to or following the Closing, any of the following items (without duplication, and it being understood that the indemnification being given in clause (iii) of sub-paragraph (c) is only being given by Oracle):

(k) any breach of any agreement or covenant of such Parent contained in this Agreement;

- 37 -

(l) subject to the application of Section 5.09, the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of such Parent contained in this Agreement, provided that to the extent that any such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality (other than a specific dollar threshold amount), such materiality qualification will be ignored for purposes of determining whether an inaccuracy or breach has occurred or the amount of the Loss, and for purposes of determining whether an inaccuracy or breach of Sections 4.23(a) or (d) has occurred or the amount of the Loss, the words “to the Knowledge of Oracle” will be ignored, and provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating the amount of the Loss in respect of a breach of Section 4.08(a)-(c), the diminishment in the value of the Business contributed to Newco shall be considered as a Loss to Newco; or

(m) (i) all Excluded Liabilities under such Parent’s Contribution Agreement, (ii) all Liabilities of each Contributed Subsidiary included in such Parent’s Group, in each case to the extent that such Liabilities arose during or relate to any period prior to the Closing, except for any Liabilities expressly assumed by such Contributed Subsidiary from any member of Parent’s Group pursuant to a Contribution Agreement or as addressed by the Employee Matters Agreement (all such Liabilities for which indemnification is being given hereunder, “Pre-Closing Liabilities”), or (iii) solely with respect to Oracle, the “Specified Indemnity Matters” described on Schedule 7.01(c).

In the event that any amount is due by a Parent in respect of Losses suffered or incurred by any JV Indemnitee, the Parties agree that such Parent will pay (and each other Parent will be entitled on behalf of such JV Indemnitee to pursue, at the expense of such JV Indemnitee, any claim in respect of) the amount due directly to such JV Indemnitee. In the event that Losses are suffered or incurred by an officer, director, employee or agent of any JV Indemnitee, such JV Indemnitee may reimburse such Person for its Losses and the amount of any payments by it in connection with such reimbursement will be deemed to be a Loss incurred by it for purposes of this Article VII.

7.02 Indemnification by Newco. Subject to the limitations contained in Section 7.06, from and after the Closing Date, Newco will indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless each Parent and its successors, assigns and Affiliates (and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Representatives) (each a “Parent Indemnitee,” and collectively, the “Parent Indemnitees”) from and against, and will reimburse the Indemnitees with respect to, any and all Losses that result from, relate to or arise out of (i) any breach by Newco of any obligation to be performed by it under this Agreement from and after the Closing, (ii) all Liabilities of Newco and each Contributed Subsidiary, in each case to the extent that such Liabilities arose during or relate to any period (or portion thereof) that takes place on or after the Closing, and (iii) after the Third Termination Date (including any extension thereof with respect to any particular matter pursuant to Section 7.06(b)(ii)), all Third Party Claims relating to any Liabilities arising out of any violations of Environmental Law or Releases at, on, under or migrating to or from any Contributed Subsidiary’s Real Property, regardless of whether such Liabilities arose during or relate to any period before, at or after the Closing.

7.03 Calculation of Indemnity Payments. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification is provided under this Article VII will be (a) net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnitee under insurance policies with respect to such Loss (less the cost to collect the proceeds of such insurance), (b) reduced by the actual amount by which the Taxes of the Indemnitee are reduced by such Loss in the tax period in which the indemnification payment is made, or the net present value (calculated using the applicable U.S. federal long-term rate compounded semi-annually) of the amount by which the Taxes of the Indemnitee would be reduced by such Loss if the reduction in Taxes would be realized in tax periods following the tax period in which the indemnification payment is made), treating any Tax attribute resulting from such Loss as the last such Tax attribute on any Tax Return, and (c) increased by the actual amount by which the Taxes of the Indemnitee are increased by such Loss in the tax period in which the indemnification payment is made, or the net present value (calculated using the applicable U.S. federal long-term rate compounded semiannually) of the amount by which the Taxes of the Indemnitee would be increased by such Loss if the increase in Taxes would be realized in tax periods following the tax period in which the indemnification payment is made), treating any Tax attribute resulting from such Loss as the last such Tax attribute on any Tax Return. If any Loss related to a claim by an Indemnitee is covered by one or more third-party (non-captive) insurance policies held by the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee will use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to pursue claims against the applicable insurers for coverage of such Loss under such policies. If the Indemnitee actually receives a full or partial recovery under such insurance policies following payment of indemnification by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Loss, then the Indemnitee will refund amounts

- 38 -

received from the Indemnifying Party up to the amount of indemnification actually received from the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Loss.

7.04 Procedures for Defense, Settlement and Indemnification of Direct or Third-Party Claims.

(c) Direct Claims. All claims made under this Article VII by any Indemnitee against any Party (“Direct Claims”), will be subject to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Section 9.12(b).

(d) Third-Party Claims.

(xxv) Notice of Claims. If an Indemnitee receives notice or otherwise learns of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Entity) that is not a Parent or any of their respective Affiliates of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Proceeding with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnitee will give such Indemnifying Party prompt written notice (a “Claims Notice”) thereof but in any event within 30 calendar days after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice will describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, stating the nature, basis for indemnification and the amount thereof, to the extent known, along with copies of any relevant documents evidencing such Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 7.04(b)(i) will not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure to give notice.

(xxvi) Opportunity to Defend. The Indemnifying Party has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnitee within 90 days after receipt of a Claims Notice from the Indemnitee of the commencement of any Third-Party Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article VII, to assume and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that (A) the Third-Party Claim does not relate to or arise in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (B) the Third-Party Claim solely seeks (and continues to seek) monetary damages and/or equitable relief (with or without monetary damages) which equitable relief would not reasonably be expected to affect in any material and adverse respect the operations of the Indemnitee, and (C) the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees with the Indemnitee in writing to be responsible for all of the Losses (which may be subject, however, to the limitations set forth in this Article VII, including the limitations set forth in Section 7.06(c)) that arise from the Third-Party Claim within 180 days of assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim (the conditions set forth in clauses (A) through (C), collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”). For purposes of clause (C) of the preceding sentence, if a Third-Party Claim consists of multiple claims by a plaintiff or group of plaintiffs, and it is reasonably practicable for an Indemnifying Party to control the defense of a subset of such claims, the Indemnifying Party may elect to agree to be responsible for only all of the Losses that arise from such subset of claims, and may elect to control the defense of only such subset of claims, provided that the other Litigation Conditions set forth in clauses (A) and (B) of the preceding sentence are satisfied. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 7.04(b), the Indemnitee may continue to defend the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 7.04(b), the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that if (x) any of the Litigation Conditions ceases to be met or (y) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses thereafter incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee, as the case may be, has the right to participate in (but, subject to the prior sentence, not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which

- 39 -

consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a complete release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitee has the right to settle any Third-Party Claim, the defense of which has not been assumed by the Indemnifying Party, with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(e) Notice of Breach – Generally. Without limiting the other provisions of this Section 7.04, with respect to any Dispute relating to a breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of a Party set forth in this Agreement, (i) the Party that is alleging such breach or violation (the “Non-Breaching Party”) will endeavor in good faith to give notice of such alleged breach or violation to the breaching Party (the “Breaching Party”) as promptly as reasonably practicable following the date on which the Non-Breaching Party has Knowledge of the alleged breach or violation, (ii) prior to commencing any process to resolve such Dispute pursuant to Section 9.12, the Non-Breaching Party will, to the extent such breach or violation is capable of being cured, provide at least 30 calendar days prior written notice in reasonable detail to the alleged Breaching Party of such alleged breach or violation and, in the event such breach or violation is cured during such 30 calendar day period by the Breaching Party (including by compensating the Non-Breaching Party for any damages recoverable pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such alleged breach or violation), the Non-Breaching Party will not thereafter commence the process to resolve such Dispute pursuant to Section 9.12, and (iii) to the extent that the alleged breach or violation of this Agreement by the Breaching Party is the breach or violation of an obligation set forth in this Agreement for such Breaching Party to take any action under or comply with the provisions of, or to cause another Person to take any action under or comply with the provisions of, another Transaction Document, then the damages recoverable in respect of such breach or violation pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to the limitations on damages set forth in such other applicable Transaction Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Non-Breaching Party to give notice as provided in this Section 7.04(c) will not relieve the Breaching Party of its obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent that such Breaching Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure to give notice.

7.05 Additional Matters.

(h) Cooperation in Defense and Settlement. With respect to any Third-Party Claim for which a Party may have Liability under this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, the Parties agree to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that will preserve the attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect thereto) so as to minimize such Liabilities and defense costs associated therewith. In connection therewith, the Parties agree to make available to the Party defending such Third-Party Claim their respective officers, employees and representatives with knowledge of such matter and any records or information that pertains to such claim. Any Party that is not responsible for managing the defense of such Third-Party Claims will, upon reasonable request, be consulted with respect to significant matters relating thereto and may retain counsel to monitor or assist in the defense of such claims at its own cost.

(i) Substitution. In the event of a Proceeding that involves solely matters that are indemnifiable and in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or the Indemnifying Party so requests, the Parties will endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the rights and obligations of the Parties regarding indemnification and the management of the defense of claims as set forth in this Article VII will not be affected.

(j) Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to or on behalf of any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party will be subrogated to and will stand in the place of such Indemnitee, in whole or in part based upon whether the Indemnifying Party has paid all or only part of the Indemnitee’s Liability, as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee will cooperate with such

- 40 -

Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

7.06 Limitations.

(j) Recipient of Representations. From and after the Closing, the representations of each Parent to each other Parent or Newco in this Agreement will be deemed to have been made only to the JV Indemnitees, provided, however, that the non-breaching Parent or Parents will have sole authority to represent and act on behalf of any JV Indemnitee in asserting claims against the other Parent or Parents pursuant to this Article VII.

(k) Survival.

(i) Representations and Warranties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding any statute of limitations that might otherwise apply, the obligation of any Parent to indemnify the JV Indemnitees from and against any Loss arising from the breach of a representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement will terminate on the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date (the “Termination Date”), except that claims in respect of breaches thereof pending on, or asserted prior to, the Termination Date will continue to survive until such claims have been resolved; provided, however, that (A) there will be no termination or expiration of the right to indemnification for the Fundamental Reps or in the case of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, and (B) the obligations of each Parent to indemnify the Indemnitees from and against any Loss arising from the breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.12 (Environmental Matters) and Section 4.13 (Taxes), will terminate on the Third Termination Date (as defined below), except that claims in respect of breaches thereof pending on, or asserted prior to, such date will continue to survive until such claims have been resolved.

(ii) Pre-Closing Liabilities (Other than Environmental and Tax). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding any statute of limitations that might otherwise apply, the obligation of any Parent to indemnify the JV Indemnitees from and against any Loss arising from any Pre-Closing Liability (other than any Pre-Closing Environmental or Tax Liability) will terminate on the third anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Second Termination Date”), except that claims in respect thereof pending on, or asserted prior to, the Second Termination Date will continue to survive until such claims have been resolved.

(iii) Pre-Closing Environmental and Tax Liabilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding any statute of limitations that might otherwise apply, the obligation of any Parent to indemnify the JV Indemnitees from and against any Loss arising from any Pre-Closing Environmental or Tax Liability will terminate on the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Third Termination Date”), except that claims in respect thereof pending on, or asserted prior to, the Third Termination Date will continue to survive until such claims have been resolved.

(l) Other Limitations.

(i) Indemnification For Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no claim for indemnification for breaches of representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 7.01(b) (other than in cases of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, which will have no such limitations) (A) will be indemnifiable by Oracle until the Losses indemnifiable by Oracle pursuant to Section 7.01(b) collectively exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Oracle Basket”), in which event Oracle will reimburse the JV Indemnitee(s) for only those Losses in excess of Oracle Basket, (B) will be indemnifiable by Xxxxxx until the Losses indemnifiable by Xxxxxx pursuant to Section 7.01(b) collectively exceed $760,000 in the aggregate (the “Xxxxxx Basket”), in which event Xxxxxx will reimburse the JV Indemnitee(s) for only those Losses in excess of Xxxxxx Basket and (C) will be indemnifiable by Iris until the Losses indemnifiable by Iris pursuant to Section 7.01(b) collectively exceed $240,000 in the

- 41 -

aggregate (the “Iris Basket”), in which event Iris will reimburse the JV Indemnitee(s) for only those Losses in excess of Iris Basket; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the maximum amount for which each Parent, Severally, may be liable with respect to claims made pursuant to Section 7.01(b), respectively (other than claims made in cases of intentional misrepresentation or fraud, which will have no such limitation), will not exceed $100,000,000 in the case of Oracle (the “Oracle Cap”), $76,000,000 in the case of Xxxxxx (the “Xxxxxx Cap”) and $24,000,000 in the case of Iris (the “Iris Cap”); provided further that claims made with respect to the Fundamental Reps will not be subject to, and will not be considered in calculating whether claims have exceeded, the Oracle Basket, Xxxxxx Basket, Iris Basket, Oracle Cap, Xxxxxx Cap or Iris Cap.

(ii) Newco Indemnification For Pre-Closing Environmental Matters. The maximum amount for which Newco may be liable with respect to claims for indemnification pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 7.02 will be (A) $100 million in respect of Liabilities arising out of any violations of Environmental Law or Releases at, on, under or migrating to or from any of the Oracle Contributed Subsidiaries’ Real Property, and (B) $100 million, in the aggregate, in respect of Liabilities arising out of any violations of Environmental Law or Releases at, on, under or migrating to or from any of the Xxxxxx Contributed Subsidiaries’ Real Property or Iris Contributed Subsidiaries’ Real Property (said indemnification to be paid by Newco to the applicable Parent Indemnitee, subject to an equitable Several adjustment to be agreed by Xxxxxx and Xxxx, if necessary).

(m) Mitigation. In the event that an Indemnitee suffers a Loss in respect of which it has or makes a valid claim against the Indemnifying Party for indemnification, it must use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mitigate the Loss.

(n) Environmental Claim Procedures.

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any claim pursuant to Section 7.01 for Response Action costs incurred in relation to any Release that occurred prior to Closing on, under or migrating to or from the Real Property of a Contributed Subsidiary, no JV Indemnitee will be entitled to recover such Losses otherwise subject to indemnification under Section 7.01 unless such Response Action is required under applicable Environmental Laws or by Order of a Governmental Entity to attain compliance with minimum remedial standards applicable under Environmental Laws for continued industrial or commercial use (as the case may be) of the relevant property or facility, employing where applicable risk-based remedial standards, deed restrictions and institutional and engineering controls, where such restrictions, standards or controls would not unreasonably restrict, limit, or interfere with operations at the relevant property or facility and the JV Indemnitees will reasonably cooperate with the applicable Parent to execute and file such documents as may be necessary to implement the foregoing controls and restrictions in relation to any such Response Action performed by or on behalf of JV Indemnitees or by or on behalf of any Parent.

(ii) Furthermore, no JV Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification with respect to any Losses pursuant to Section 7.01 to the extent arising from (A) any Release identified through any post-Closing intrusive or subsurface investigations (including excavations, drilling, boring and sampling) of soil or groundwater performed by or on behalf of any JV Indemnitee (or by a Person that is not a Governmental Entity that the JV Indemnitee expressly allows to conduct such investigations) at any Real Property of a Contributed Subsidiary unless such investigation is (1) required to comply with Environmental Laws or is reasonably necessary to defend against a third-party claim, (2) required or ordered by a Governmental Entity, (3) required by any applicable lease, (4) undertaken in connection with any maintenance or repair activities conducted at any facility, or as part of expansion or modification of any facility, but only if conditions observed during such maintenance, repair, expansion or modification activities suggest, in the reasonable judgment of the JV Indemnitee, the actual presence of a greater than de minimis Release that would reasonably and customarily require sampling to protect construction and maintenance workers, or (5) reasonably determined by the JV Indemnitee in good faith to be necessary in connection with any closure or shutting down of, or material suspension or modification of the historical

- 42 -

operations at, any facility or property, but only if conditions observed during such shutting down, material suspension or modification of operations suggests, in the reasonable opinion of the JV Indemnitee, the actual presence of a greater than de minimis Release that would reasonably and customarily require sampling to protect construction and maintenance workers, (B) the solicitation (not otherwise required under applicable Environmental Laws) by any JV Indemnitee of any Governmental Entity to seek or require any JV Indemnitee to perform a Response Action at any Real Property of a Contributed Subsidiary that is not otherwise required under applicable Environmental Laws, or (C) the incremental increase in Response Actions costs associated with a change of the current industrial or commercial use (as the case may be) of the relevant property or facility to a use (such as residential) that is subject to more stringent cleanup standards than such current use.

(iii) No Parent will have any obligation to indemnify any JV Indemnitee with respect to Losses to the extent arising from any Releases first occurring or contributed to after the Closing Date. To the extent that on-site groundwater has not been withdrawn at any Real Property for consumption or for use in any process over the past two years, is not currently being withdrawn for such purposes, and there are no plans as of the date hereof by any Contributed Subsidiary to do so, in no event will it be deemed reasonable, for purposes of this Section 7.06(e), for the “industrial” or "commercial" use or operation of the relevant property or facility to involve the withdrawal of on-site groundwater for consumption or for use in any process. The Parent will have the right, in its sole discretion, to control and conduct any such Response Action and any related communications with any Governmental Entities or third parties; provided that no such Response Action or related communications will unreasonably interfere with operations at (or impede any JV Indemnitee's ability to comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits in respect of) the relevant facility or property or result in any Losses for which any JV Indemnitee has any liability not subject to indemnification hereunder; and provided further that the Parent utilizes environmental contractors reasonably acceptable to the JV Indemnitee and provides the JV Indemnitee with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any proposed Response Action prior to implementation and final drafts of documents prepared for submission to any Governmental Entity or other third party prior to submittal (and utilizes in good faith reasonable efforts to accommodate any reasonable comments provided by the JV Indemnitees), and the JV Indemnitees will provide all reasonable access during normal operating hours to all of the applicable Real Property, facilities, books and records as the Parent may reasonably request to the extent necessary to complete such Response Action consistent with applicable Environmental Laws, including use of any wastewater treatment systems and utilities located at such Real Property (subject to reimbursement by the Parent for the reasonable pro rata costs of the Parent’s usage of such systems and utilities, and provided that such use does not unreasonably interfere with operations at (or impede any JV Indemnitee’s ability to comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits in respect of) the relevant facility or property).

(g) No delay or failure in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder will affect or operate as a waiver thereof; nor will any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or remedy preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or remedy. The rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that any Party would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of any provision of this Agreement must satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 9.02(a) and will be effective only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth.

No Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the written consent of the other Parties, except that a Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement to a member of its Group, provided that such member agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, and provided further that the assignment or delegation will not relieve any Party of its indemnification or other obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Newco may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of any Parent to any purchaser of all or substantially all of Newco’s assets or Shares or other equity interests, or to one or more of its Subsidiaries (provided that such Person remains a Subsidiary of Newco for the duration of the relevant right or obligation and provided further that the assignment or delegation will not relieve any Party of its indemnification or other obligations hereunder). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, any attempted assignment or delegation will be void.

9.05 Disclosure. There may be included in the Disclosure Schedules or the Disclosure Letters items and information that are not “material,” and such inclusion will not be deemed to be an acknowledgment or agreement that any such item or information (or any non-disclosed item or information of comparable or greater significance) is “material,” or to affect the interpretation of such term for purposes of this Agreement. Matters reflected in the Disclosure Schedules or the Disclosure Letters are not necessarily limited to matters required by this Agreement to be disclosed therein. The Disclosure Schedules and the Disclosure Letters each set forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information in the applicable disclosure document relates; provided, however, that any information set forth in one section of a Disclosure Schedule or a Disclosure Letter will be deemed to apply to each other section or subsection thereof to which its relevance is reasonably apparent on its face.

9.06 Construction. The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended to be a substantive part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever required by the context, any pronoun used in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules or the Disclosure Letters will include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular forms of nouns, pronouns, and verbs will include the plural and vice versa. Reference to any agreement, document, or instrument means such agreement, document or instrument as amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, and if applicable hereof. The use of the words “include” or “including” in this Agreement, the Disclosure Schedules or the Disclosure Letters will be by way of example rather than by limitation. The use of the words “or,” “either” or “any” will not be exclusive. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement or any Transaction Document, any provision herein which contemplates the agreement, approval or consent of, or exercise of any right of, a Party, such Party may give or withhold such agreement, approval or consent, or exercise such right, in its sole and absolute discretion, the Parties hereby expressly disclaiming any implied duty of good faith and fair dealing or similar concept.

9.07 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any related annexes, schedules and exhibits, as well as any other agreements and documents referred to herein and therein, will together constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and will supersede all prior negotiations, agreements and understandings of the Parties of any nature, whether oral or written, with respect to such subject matter, including any term sheets relating to the Contemplated Transactions exchanged between the Parties prior to the date hereof.

9.08 Governing Law.

(q) The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement will be governed by the Laws of the State of Delaware, other than any choice of Law provisions thereof that would cause the Laws of another state to apply.

(r) Except with respect to disputes referenced in Sections 1.02 and 7.04(a), and subject to Section 9.12, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Party irrevocably (i) submits and consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the State of Delaware for itself and in respect of its property in the event that any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court, other than to enforce a judgment of said courts. Subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 9.12, if applicable, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives (and agrees not to plead or claim) any objection to the laying of venue of any dispute arising out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby in the state and federal courts of the State of Delaware, or that any such dispute brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient or improper forum. The Parties further agree that the mailing by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, of any process required by any such court will constitute valid and lawful service of process against them, without necessity for service by any other means provided by statute or rule of court.

(s) EACH PARTY 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 HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY 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 9.08.

9.09 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party), each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together will constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement, and any amendments hereto, to the extent signed and delivered by means of a facsimile machine or other electronic transmission, will be treated in all manners and respects as an original agreement and will 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, the other Parties will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to the requesting Party. No Party will raise the use of a facsimile machine or other electronic means to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of facsimile machine or other electronic means as a defense to the formation of a Contract and each such Party forever waives any such defense.

9.10 Severability. The Parties agree that (a) the provisions of this Agreement will be severable in the event that for any reason whatsoever any of the provisions hereof are invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, (b) any such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions will be replaced by other provisions which are as similar as possible in terms to such invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable provisions but are valid and enforceable, and (c) the remaining provisions will remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law.

- 48 -

9.11 Disclaimer of Agency. This Agreement will not constitute any Party as a legal representative or agent of any other Party, nor will a Party have the right or authority to assume, create or incur any liability or any obligation of any kind, expressed or implied, against or in the name or on behalf of any other Party, unless otherwise expressly permitted under the Alliance Agreement or the Newco Articles or pursuant to an agreement in writing between or among any of the Parties.

9.12 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Disputes Prior To Closing. With respect to disputes prior to the Closing, each Parent will have the right to commence litigation in accordance with Section 9.08.

(b) Disputes From and After Closing. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or in any Transaction Document, if a dispute between the Parties relating to a Direct Claim arises after Closing under Article VII (a “Dispute”), then each Party shall elevate the dispute to the chief executive officer of such Party, and such chief executive officers shall meet or communicate by telephone at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, and shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If such Dispute has not been resolved within 30 days after the commencement of the chief executive officer discussions, then a Party may, within 30 days thereafter, by written notice to the other Parties, call for private mediation of the Dispute before a mediator to be agreed upon by the Parties. The Parties agree to conclude such private mediation within 45 days of the initiating Party’s request for such mediation, and each Party involved in the mediation shall be responsible for its share of the mediator’s fees and expenses based on its respective ownership interest as contemplated by Section 1.02. Any Dispute that is not resolved by the foregoing provisions shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 15.09 of the Alliance Agreement.

9.13 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as expressly otherwise provided in Article VII with respect to the specific indemnification rights of Indemnitees, this Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties and does not confer on third parties (including any employees of each Party or Newco or any of their respective Affiliates, except with respect to indemnity under Article VII) any remedy, claim, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in addition to those existing without reference to this Agreement.

9.14 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement to be performed at or prior to the Closing were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, that monetary damages may be inadequate and that a Party may have no adequate remedy at Law. The Parties accordingly agree that, without the necessity of posting bond or other undertaking, the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement at or prior to the Closing and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement to be performed at or prior to the Closing in accordance with this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such Party is entitled at Law or in equity. In the event that any action is brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement to be performed at or prior to the Closing, no Party will allege, and each Party hereby waives the defense or counterclaim that, there is an adequate remedy at Law.
