(i) So long as the Class B Member is a Member of the Company, the Members and the Company agree to review and discuss from time to time after Closing whether the Company should acquire the heat transfer business of Mex-JV and Brazil-JV.

(j) So long as LII is a Member of the Company, the Company will not engage in the design, manufacture or sale of equipment and accessory end use products in the HVAC/R industry.

ARTICLE 12
COMPANY SALE; RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

Section 12.1 Sale Notice. At any time after the expiration of the Option Exercise Period, either the Class A Member or the Class B Member (the “Electing Member”) may send a notice (the “Sale Notice”) to the other Member and the Company indicating the Electing Member’s intent to commence a process leading to the sale of all of the Shares of the Company and EUJVCo. If the Sale Period expires as provided below, neither party may give another Sale Notice for 24 months after such expiration.

Section 12.2 Sale Procedures.

(a) If a Sale Notice is sent, the Board shall within 60 days thereafter retain an investment banking firm to solicit offers from Bona fide third parties to acquire all of the Shares of the Company and EU JVCo. For purposes of this Section 12.2, the term “Sale Period” means the one year period after a Sale Notice is delivered by an Electing Member, which shall be extended for a reasonable period to the extent reasonably recommended by the investment banking firm but in any event for not more than three (3) months.

(b) The Members shall cooperate in all respects with the investment banking firm selected hereunder in connection with its due diligence and services to the Board. In connection therewith, the Company and Members will not be required to enter into a LOI (as defined below) unless it includes a proposed firm price or firm total consideration that is acceptable to both Members. For purposes hereof, the term “LOI” means a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or similar preliminary agreement that requires the Company and the Members to negotiate exclusively with a Bona fide third party. If one or more offers to purchase all of the Shares is received from a Bona fide third party(s) during the Sale Period (“Third Party Offers”), the Members shall review any and all such Third Party Offers with such investment banking firm and seek its opinion as to the fairness of such Third Party Offers and the value of the Company. If either Member desires to accept any such Third Party Offer, the Members agree that, subject to Paragraph (c) below, they both shall be required to consummate the sale of all of their Shares pursuant to the Third Party Offer.

(c) No Member shall be obligated under this Section 12.2 to sell its Shares pursuant to any Third Party Offer that does not include (i) the release of all guaranties, if any, by such Member of any indebtedness or other obligations of the Company and of the EU JVCo and (ii) representations and warranties and indemnification provisions that are reasonable and customary for transactions of this type. In addition, if the Class B Member is the Member that desires to accept a Third Party Offer, the Class A Member shall have the option and right to purchase the Class B Member’s Shares for a consideration equal to what the Class B Member would have received in connection with the completion and closing of the sale of its Shares pursuant to the Third Party Offer under the following circumstances: (A) the Third Party was a result of an auction process managed by the investment banking firm and no LOI was required or (B) if an LOI was required in connection with the receipt of a Third Party Offer, and the total consideration that the Class A Member will receive in connection with the completion of the Third Party Offer is not equal to or greater than 90% of the consideration provided for in the LOI. The ROFR Option shall be exercised by written notice to the Class B Member within twenty (20) Business Days after the later of (x) the Class B Member notifies the Class A Member that it desires to accept a Third Party Offer or (y) the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 12.2(c) have been satisfied.

(d) For purposes of subsection (c) above, if the purchase price included in a Third Party Offer includes any non-cash consideration, the Class A Member will have the right to substitute cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such non-cash consideration. If any part of the non-cash consideration consists of registered securities, the fair market value of such securities will be deemed to be the average of their closing sale prices as reported on the applicable national securities exchange or quotation system on which such securities are listed, quoted or admitted to trading for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date which is two Business Days prior to the day on which the Class A Member notifies the Class B Member that it is exercising the ROFR Option. The fair market value of any other non-cash consideration will be determined by the investment banking firm selected pursuant to Section 12.2, and any such determination will be final and binding on the Members. The Company shall pay the fees of the investment banking firm in making such determination.

The rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and not alternative. Neither the failure nor any delay by any party in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement will operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power, or privilege will preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.
