and specifying, in reasonable detail (i) the Seller’s calculation of the Closing Inventory Value and (ii) the Purchaser’s grounds for such disagreement.

(iii) If a Seller’s Objection is duly delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(a)(ii), the Purchaser and the Seller shall, during the 15 days following such delivery, use their reasonable efforts to reach agreement on the Closing Inventory Value. If they are unable to reach such agreement during such period, the parties shall promptly engage the CPA Firm to review promptly the Net Inventory for the purpose of calculating the Closing Inventory Value. In making such calculation, the CPA Firm shall determine the Closing Inventory Value. The CPA Firm shall deliver to the Purchaser and the Seller, as promptly as practicable, a report setting forth such calculation of the Closing Inventory Valuation. Such report shall be final and binding upon the Purchaser and the Seller (absent manifest error). The cost of the CPA Firm shall be borne equally by the Purchaser and the Seller.

(iv) The Purchaser and the Seller each agree to reasonably cooperate and assist in the determination of the Closing Inventory Value under this Section 1.4(a), including by making available to the other party and its representatives, to the extent reasonably requested, reasonable access to books, records, work papers, personnel and representatives in connection with such other party’s preparation and review of the closing statement.

(v) If the Final Inventory Value (as defined below) is less than the Base Inventory Value, the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, the amount by which the Final Inventory Value is less than the Base Inventory Value. If the Final Inventory Value is greater than the Base Inventory Value, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller, as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, the amount by which the Final Inventory Value is greater than the Base Inventory Value; provided that any such payment by the Purchaser to the Seller shall not exceed $3,900,000. “Final Inventory Value” means the Closing Inventory Value (i) as shown in the Purchaser’s Calculation if no Seller’s Objection is duly delivered to the Purchaser in compliance with Section 1.4(a)(ii); or (ii) if such a notice of disagreement is delivered, (A) as agreed by the Purchaser and the Seller pursuant to Section 1.4(a)(iii) or (B) in the absence of such agreement, as shown in the CPA Firm’s calculation delivered pursuant to Section 1.4(a)(iii).

(vi) Any payment pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be made at a mutually convenient time and place within 10 days after the determination of Final Inventory Value by the delivery by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated by the Seller or the Purchaser, as the case may be.

(b) The Purchase Price shall be adjusted (the “Transferred Subsidiary Purchase Price Adjustment”) to reflect the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets and the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities as follows: (i) to the extent that the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets exceeds the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities, the Purchase Price shall be increased by the amount by which the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets exceeds the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities and (ii) to the extent that the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities exceeds the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the amount by which the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities exceeds the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets. Initial Payment of the Transferred Subsidiary Purchase Price Adjustment shall be made at Closing based upon the estimated Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet prepared in good faith by the Seller and delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to Section 1.14(i) (provided that the Seller shall deliver a draft of such estimated Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet at least four (4) Business Days but not more than seven (7) Business Days prior to the Closing Date). Final settlement of the Transferred Subsidiary Purchase Price Adjustment shall be made on the basis of a Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet delivered by the Transferred Subsidiary to the Parties not more than 20 Business Days following the Closing. If either Party disagrees with the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet, such Party may deliver a notice disagreeing therewith. In such case, the dispute resolution provisions under Section 1.4(a)(ii)-(a)(iii) will be applied to resolve such disagreement.

1.5 Escrow Fund. On or prior to the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser shall enter into an escrow agreement, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Escrow Agreement”), with the Escrow Agent. Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the Purchaser will create the escrow fund (the “Escrow Fund”) on the date specified in Section 1.3(b) above (the “Escrow Creation Date”) by depositing the Escrow Amount with the Escrow Agent on the Escrow Creation Date. The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Fund in an escrow account and invest the Escrow Fund in a money market fund mutually agreed upon by the Seller and the Purchaser (“Investment Fund”). In addition, the Escrow Agent will not transfer any interest in such Escrow Fund except pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Subject to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Amount still held in escrow (including accrued interest to the extent provided in the Escrow Agreement) and not subject to pending, unresolved claims thereunder shall be released from the Escrow Fund to the Purchaser ten (10) Business Days following the end of the General Survival Period. Any distributions from the Escrow Fund shall be governed pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. The parties agree that, consistent with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8, for Tax reporting purposes, the Seller shall be deemed the owner of the Escrow Amount and all interest or other income earned from the investment of the Escrow Amount or any portion thereof in any Tax year shall be reported as allocated to the Seller until the distribution of the Escrow Amount (or portions thereof) is determined and thereafter to the Seller and the Purchaser in accordance with their respective interests in the Escrow Amount consistent with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.468B-8.

1.6 Contingent Payments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 1.6, (i) if BMP Sales during the period of six calendar quarters commencing on July 1, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2009 (such period, the “Contingent Payment Period”) exceed $330,000,000, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller an amount (such amount, the “Initial Contingent Payment”), if any, equal to the product of (x) 0.1 times (y) the amount by which BMP Sales during the Contingent Payment Period exceeds $330,000,000, up to a maximum Initial Contingent Payment of $5,000,000; and (ii) if BMP Sales during the Contingent Payment Period exceed $380,000,000, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller, in addition to the Initial Contingent Payment, an additional amount equal to the product of (x) 0.4 times (y) the amount by which BMP Sales during the Contingent Payment Period exceeds $380,000,000, up to a maximum payment of $30,000,000 (the sum of the amount in this clause “(ii)” and the Initial Contingent Payment, the “Contingent Payment”).

(b) The Seller acknowledges, understands and agrees that, after the Closing, the Purchaser shall exercise operational control of the Business and the Transferred Assets without interference by the Seller. The Seller understands that, except as expressly provided herein, the future design, creation, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution of the Business and its products and projects shall be exercised by the Purchaser in accordance with its own business judgment and in its sole and absolute discretion. The Seller further acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (i) the Purchaser will have complete control and sole and absolute discretion with respect to decisions concerning the Business after the Closing, (ii) such control and discretion by the Purchaser could have a material adverse effect upon any Contingent Payment that may otherwise be payable under Section 1.6(a), (iii) such control and discretion by the Purchaser could result in the Seller receiving no Contingent Payment whatsoever under Section 1.6(a) and (iv) the Purchaser has no duty to the Seller to commercially exploit the products or projects of the Business or to exert any level of effort in marketing the products or projects of the Business. In addition, the Seller acknowledges, understands and agrees that whether or not the Purchaser makes any BMP Sales after the Closing, the Purchaser shall not be prohibited pursuant to this Section 1.6 from researching, developing, manufacturing, marketing or selling other products that may compete with the Business or reduce the BMP Sales. The Seller also acknowledges, understands and agrees that personnel of the Purchaser shall take actions in connection with the commercial exploitation of the Business and its products and projects that such personnel believe to be in the best interests of the Purchaser, and that they are not required to take into account, nor will they take into account, the interests of the Seller in determining whether to take any such actions. Accordingly, with respect to this Section 1.6, except as hereinafter expressly provided, the Seller agrees not to challenge, in any subsequent claim or action, any decision regarding such commercial exploitation of the Business and its products and projects made by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Purchaser, unless such action (x) constitutes a breach by the Purchaser of any of its express obligations under this Agreement or (y) was taken in bad faith for the principal purpose of avoiding payment of the Contingent Payment or frustrating the provisions of this Section 1.6.

(c) In the event that prior to the end of the Contingent Payment Period a Person (other than a Permitted Holder) (an “NXP Acquiring Person”) acquires (i) a majority of the outstanding capital stock of or other equity interests in the Purchaser, (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Purchaser or (iii) a portion of the assets of one or more business units or other operating units of the Purchaser of which the Business or all or substantially all of the Transferred Assets is a part, then within 30 days of the occurrence of any such event, such NXP Acquiring Person shall elect, to either (x) pay to the Seller the amount of any Contingent Payment that remains capable of being earned by the Seller as of and after such date, or (y) assume all of the Purchaser’s remaining obligations under the terms of Section 1.6(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall not be entitled to receive nor shall such NXP Acquiring Person be required to assume any obligations to pay any portion of the Contingent Payment pursuant to Section 1.6(a) to the extent the Contingent Payment Period has ended prior to the date of the event described under (i), (ii) or (iii) above and the applicable conditions to the payment of the Contingent Payment had not been satisfied.

1.7 Assumption of Liabilities.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, at the Closing, the Purchaser shall assume the following obligations and liabilities of the Seller (the “Assumed Liabilities”): (i) all Liabilities arising on or after the Closing under the Transferred Contracts (but excluding any Liability for any breach arising in whole or in part on or prior to the Closing Date); (ii) all Liabilities with respect to Taxes arising out of or related to the operation of the Business or the Transferred Assets after the Closing Date; (iii) all Liabilities with respect to Open Incoming POs entered into (A) on or before the date hereof or (B) otherwise in compliance with this Agreement (but not including any Liability for any breach arising in whole or in part on or prior to the Closing Date); (iv) all Liabilities with respect to Open Outgoing POs entered into (A) on or before the date hereof or (B) otherwise in compliance with this Agreement (but not including any Liability for any breach arising in whole or in part on or prior to the Closing Date); (v) all Liabilities for product warranty claims and product liability claims with respect to Seller Products manufactured and sold after the Closing Date; and (vi) all Liabilities to the extent arising out of, relating to or in connection with the ownership or operation of the Business or the Transferred Assets after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, Assumed Liabilities shall not include (x) any Liabilities, including Liabilities for refunds, rebates, rights of return or similar obligations, with respect to any Seller Products sold prior to the Closing Date; (y) any Liabilities of Seller as an employer related to the employee rights, compensation and benefits arising up to and including the Closing Date; and (z) any Liabilities for Intellectual Property infringements or unpaid royalty payments with respect to activities conducted by Seller prior to the Closing Date, including any Seller Products sold prior to the Closing Date.

(b) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller the Assignment and Assumption Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt it is hereby clarified that the Purchaser’s assumption of liabilities under this Section 1.7 shall be

considered part of the consideration paid for the Transferred Assets. Taxes shall only be an Assumed Liability to the extent provided for in this Section 1.7.

1.8 Excluded Liabilities. The Seller and its Affiliates shall retain and be responsible for all Excluded Liabilities.

1.9 Sales and Transfer Taxes; VAT; Transferred Subsidiary Tax Matters.

Any Import Duties that are in excess of the Import Duty Cap shall be borne and paid by the Seller.

(b) The Purchase Price under this Agreement in respect of the sale of the Transferred Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities is exclusive of any VAT in respect of which the provisions of this Section 1.9(b) shall apply. To the extent that any relevant jurisdiction provides for relief or exemption from VAT on the transfer of a business or a company or treats such a transaction as being non-taxable for VAT purposes, including as a result of it being a transfer of a going concern, the Seller and the Purchaser shall each use all reasonable efforts to secure such treatment as regards the sale of the Transferred Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities (insofar as the Business is carried on in the relevant jurisdiction) under this Agreement. Such efforts shall, for the avoidance of doubt, include the making of an election or application in respect of VAT in any such jurisdiction or entering into a written agreement. The Purchaser agrees that it will use the Transferred Assets acquired in carrying on the same kind of business, whether or not as part of its existing business, as the Seller, unless otherwise explicitly stated in this Agreement.

The Seller shall have the right to obtain a ruling in the relevant jurisdiction as to whether the sale of the Transferred Assets and the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities is eligible for a relief or exemption or are otherwise non-taxable for the purposes of the Legal Requirement governing VAT in that jurisdiction and to charge (or not to charge) VAT to the Purchaser(s) in accordance with that ruling. The Seller shall not be obliged to challenge that ruling. If the Purchaser wishes to challenge any ruling, it may do so.

If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Governmental Entity with responsibility for Taxes determines that any sale carried out pursuant to this Agreement will be treated as a supply of goods or a supply of services for VAT purposes, or does not qualify for relief or exemption from VAT or is otherwise chargeable to VAT, the Seller shall hold harmless and indemnify the Purchaser and each of its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees (other than the Transferred Employees) and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such against any and all costs, charges, VAT and penalties arising except to the extent that the Purchaser is (acting reasonably) able to recover such amounts from the applicable authorities and (i) where the Purchaser has overpaid any amount, the Seller will repay this amount to the Purchaser plus interest and any related costs and shall also provide the Purchaser with a correcting invoice or credit note for an amount equal to the overpayment made by the Purchaser, and (ii) where the Purchaser has paid less than the correct amount, the Purchaser shall pay the outstanding amount to the Seller upon the receipt of a valid VAT invoice.

If VAT is chargeable, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with a valid VAT invoice that meets all requirements imposed by the relevant Governmental Entity with responsibility for Taxes and which specifically states the VAT (or equivalent, if any) and meets further conditions necessary to allow the Purchaser to obtain relief from such VAT to the extent such relief is available. Provided the Purchaser is in receipt of a valid VAT invoice, the Purchaser will, subject to the provision of the preceding paragraph, pay to the Seller such VAT in addition to any amounts expressed in this Agreement.

The Purchaser reserves the right to withhold payment of any VAT (or equivalent, if any) to the Seller until the Seller has provided the Purchaser with a valid VAT invoice and such other further information as the Purchaser may reasonably request.

The VAT amounts shall be paid in the currency in which the VAT in question must be accounted for in the relevant jurisdiction.

(c) Following the Closing, the Purchaser shall have responsibility for preparing and filing the Tax Returns of the Transferred Subsidiary that include any period after the Closing Date. The Tax Returns of the Transferred Subsidiary which include any period prior to the Closing Date shall be prepared in a manner substantially consistent with Seller’s prior practices except to the extent that such practices are, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, inconsistent with applicable Legal Requirements or otherwise likely to subject the Purchaser to a penalty imposed by an applicable Tax authority. The Seller shall promptly provide the Purchaser with all information that the Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request to permit the Purchaser to prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed) any Tax Returns of the Transferred Subsidiary that the Purchaser, under this Section 1.9(c), has responsibility for preparing and filing. The Purchaser shall give the Seller notice of any audit adjustments that are proposed that could impact any periods prior to the Closing. The Purchaser shall at its own expense have the option to elect to assume the defense of such adjustments.

In the case of Taxes (other than income Taxes ) payable by the Transferred Subsidiary and attributable to taxable periods beginning on or before, and ending after, the Closing Date (“Straddle Periods”), if any, the amount of such Taxes for the pre closing period to be borne and paid by the Seller, on the one hand, and the amount of Taxes for the post-closing period to be borne and paid by the Purchaser, on the other hand, shall be determined such that (i) the Seller bears and pays an amount of such Taxes equal to the total amount of such Taxes multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period up to and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period and (ii) the Purchaser bears and pays an amount of such Taxes equal to the total amount of such Taxes multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period following the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the total number of days in such Straddle Period.

(d) At Closing, the Purchaser shall withhold Tax at source, at the prevailing rates under Israeli Tax Legal Requirements, with respect to the portion of the Purchase Price allocated to the Transferred Shares pursuant to Section 1.10 (or otherwise determined by the Israeli Tax authorities), unless the Seller shall deliver on or before the Closing Date to the Purchaser an exemption certificate from the Israeli Tax authorities in connection with the sale and transfer of the Transferred Shares.

1.10 Allocation of Purchase Price. The Seller and the Purchaser recognize their mutual obligations pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code (and any comparable provisions of any other Tax law) to allocate the Purchase Price and all other items properly included in “consideration”, if any, consistent with the principles set forth therein, and to timely file IRS Form 8594 (or comparable form) and subsequent Forms 8594 (or comparable forms), if any are required, with each of their respective Tax Returns (the “Asset Allocation Statements”). Accordingly, the Seller and the Purchaser agree to cooperate in the preparation of any Asset Allocation Statements. Within 5 Business Days after the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Seller a statement of allocation of the Purchase Price and all other items properly included in “consideration”, if any, among the Transferred Assets, which shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the principles set forth in Section 1060 of the Code and which shall specify in reasonable detail the amount (supported by an appraisal to be obtained by the Purchaser) to be allocated to inventory, customer base, work force, intellectual property and other intangible assets (i.e. goodwill) located both inside and outside the United States (the “Allocation”). The Purchaser and the Seller will endeavor in good faith to resolve any differences with respect to the Allocation within 10 days following the Seller’s receipt of the Allocation from the Purchaser. If the Seller withholds its consent to the Allocation after such 10-day period, then any remaining disputed matters will be finally and conclusively determined by an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing (the “Allocation Arbiter”) jointly selected by the Purchaser and the Seller. Promptly, but not later than 20 days after its acceptance of appointment hereunder; the Allocation Arbiter will determine (based solely on presentations by the Seller and the Purchaser and not by independent review) only those matters in dispute and will render a written report as to the disputed matters and the resulting allocation of

Purchase Price (together with any assumed liabilities), which report shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. Each of the Seller and the Purchaser shall (i) be bound by the Allocation for purposes of determining any Taxes, (ii) prepare and file, and cause its Affiliates to prepare and file, its Tax Returns on a basis consistent with the Allocation, and (iii) take not position, and cause its Affiliates to take no position, inconsistent with the Allocation on any applicable Tax Return or in any proceeding before any taxing authority or otherwise. In the event that the Allocation is disputed by any taxing authority, the Party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other Party hereto concerning resolution of the dispute. Seller and Purchaser acknowledge that the Allocation was made in accordance with the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code and Treasury Regulation thereunder.

1.11 Ancillary Agreements. At the Closing, the Seller and the Purchaser, or their respective Affiliates, as applicable, will enter into the following additional agreements to the extent not entered into previously (the “Ancillary Agreements”):

(a) the IP License Agreement;

(b) the Assignment and Assumption Agreements;

(c) the Transition Services Agreement;

(d) the Escrow Agreement;

California time, on the third Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Sections 5 and 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions). For purposes of this Agreement, “Closing Date” means the date on which the Closing actually takes place.

1.13 Deliveries by the Purchaser. At the Closing, the Purchaser or an Affiliate of the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered:

(a) to the Seller the following (except to the extent actually delivered to the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller at or prior to the Closing pursuant to a Local Purchase Agreement):

(i) the Cash Closing Payment in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account or accounts which have been designated by the Seller at least four (4) Business Days prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) a duly executed counterpart of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement and other instruments of assumption or other documents in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Seller, as may be necessary to effect Purchaser’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities and the effective assignment of any Transferred Contracts or other Transferred Assets;

(iii) a duly executed counterpart of each of the other Ancillary Agreements;

(iv) a duly executed counterpart of the Supply Agreement;

(v) the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.8; and

(vi) such other customary instruments of transfer, assumptions, filings or documents, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Seller, as may be required to give effect to this Agreement.

1.14 Deliveries by the Seller. At the Closing, the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Purchaser or an Affiliate of the Purchaser the following (except to the extent actually delivered to the Purchaser or one of its Affiliates at or prior to the Closing pursuant to a Local Purchase Agreement):

(a) a duly executed counterpart of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, ▇▇▇▇ of sale and any other appropriate document of transfer in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Seller, transferring the tangible personal property included in the Transferred Assets to the Purchaser and assigning to the Purchaser all rights of the Seller and its Affiliates in and to all of the Transferred Contracts;

(b) a duly executed counterpart of each of the other Ancillary Agreements;

(c) a duly executed counterpart of the Supply Agreement;

(d) assignments, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and, if applicable, as required by any Governmental Entity with which the Seller’s or any of its Affiliates’ rights to any Transferred Intellectual Property have been filed, assigning to the Purchaser the Transferred Intellectual Property;

(e) a duly executed certification that the Seller is not a foreign Person within the meaning set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(b)(2)(iii)(A); it being understood that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Seller fails to provide the Purchaser with such certification, the Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold the requisite amount from the Purchase Price in accordance with Section 1445 of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations;

(f) evidence of the obtaining of each Seller Required Approval that is a condition to the Purchaser’s obligations under Section 5.8;

(g) the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.9;

(h) such other customary instruments of transfer, assumptions, filings or documents, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, as may reasonably be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Purchaser to give effect to this Agreement; and

(i) an estimated Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet.

1.15 Nonassignability of Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, to the extent that the sale, assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance or delivery or attempted sale, sublease, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery to the Purchaser of any asset that would be a Transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom is prohibited by any Legal Requirement or would require any Governmental Authorizations or third party authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers, and such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing, the Closing shall proceed without the sale, assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance or delivery of such asset unless such failure causes a failure of any of the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 5, in which event the Closing shall proceed only if the failed condition is waived by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof. In the event that the failed condition is waived and the Closing proceeds without the transfer, sublease or assignment of any such asset, then following the Closing, the parties shall use their reasonable efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain promptly such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers; provided, however, that none of the Seller or the Purchaser or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to pay any consideration to obtain any contractual consent or waiver, other than (a) any de minimis fees, expenses or other consideration or (ii) any such fees, expenses or other consideration required to be paid pursuant to the express provisions of the contract requiring such consent, which consideration, fees or expenses shall be paid by the party obligated to seek such consent, nor shall any such party be required to pay any amounts in respect of any Governmental Authorization other than filing, recordation or similar fees which shall be shared equally by the Seller and the Purchaser. Pending such authorization, approval, consent or waiver, the parties shall cooperate with each other in any mutually agreeable, reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide to the Purchaser the benefits of use of such asset and to the Seller or its Affiliates the benefits, including any indemnities, that they would have obtained had the asset been conveyed to the Purchaser at the Closing. Once authorization, approval, consent or waiver for the sale, assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such asset not sold, assigned, subleased, transferred, conveyed or delivered at the Closing is obtained, the Seller shall or shall cause the relevant Affiliates to, assign, transfer, convey and deliver such asset to the Purchaser at no additional cost. To the extent that any such asset cannot be transferred or the full benefits of use of any such asset cannot be provided to the Purchaser following the Closing pursuant to this Section 1.15, then the Purchaser and the Seller shall enter into such arrangements (including subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) to provide to the parties hereto the economic (taking into account Tax costs and benefits) and operational equivalent, to the

extent permitted, of obtaining such authorization, approval, consent or waiver and the performance by the Purchaser of the obligations thereunder. The Seller shall hold in trust for and pay to the Purchaser promptly upon receipt thereof, all income, proceeds and other monies received by the Seller or any of its Affiliates in connection with its use of any asset (net of any Taxes and any other costs imposed upon the Seller or any of its Affiliates) in connection with the arrangements under this Section 1.15.

1.16 Affiliate Acquisitions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Purchaser may elect to have any or all of the Transferred Assets conveyed or transferred to, or any of the Assumed Liabilities assumed by, one or more of its Affiliates so long as no such election results in any greater cost or obligation than the Seller would otherwise have had; provided, however, that no such election shall relieve the Purchaser or the Seller of any of its obligations to the other Party and such Party’s Affiliates hereunder with respect to the Assumed Liabilities or otherwise. The Purchase Price shall be allocated among those Transferred Assets to be conveyed to the Purchaser and those Transferred Assets to be conveyed to the respective Affiliates of the Purchaser, but in no event shall the amount of the Purchase Price or any other items to be paid for the Transferred Assets, the nature of the Assumed Liabilities to be assumed, the obligation to pay Taxes or transfer taxes or the allocation of risk and responsibility between the Seller and the Purchaser be modified to the detriment of the Seller and/or the Purchaser and their Affiliates as a result of the delivery of separate bills of sale, assignments and other closing documents.

2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER.

The Seller represents and warrants to the Purchaser, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, as follows, subject in each case to such exceptions as are specifically set forth in the attached disclosure schedules of the Seller (the “Seller Disclosure Schedules”), it being understood that each exception set forth in a section or subsection of the Seller Disclosure Schedules shall qualify only the corresponding representation and warranty set forth in this Agreement and shall qualify other representations and warranties in this Agreement to the extent (but only to the extent) that it is readily apparent on its face from a reading of the Seller Disclosure Schedules that such disclosure is intended to be applicable to such other representations and warranties:

2.1 Due Organization and Qualification. The Seller (and in the case of any Local Purchase Agreement, the relevant Seller Affiliate) is a legal entity duly organized, validly existing and (to the extent such concept is applicable in such jurisdiction) is in good standing under the laws of its respective jurisdiction of organization and has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its assets (including any Transferred Assets) and to carry on the Business as currently conducted. The Seller (and in the case of any Local Purchase Agreement, the relevant Seller Affiliate) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction where the ownership or the operation of the Transferred Assets or the conduct of the Business requires such qualification.

2.2 Title to Assets. As of the Closing Date, the Seller (or in the case of any Local Purchase Agreement, the relevant Seller Affiliate) will have good and valid title to the Transferred Inventory and the Transferred Fixed Assets, free and clear of any Encumbrances, except for Permitted Encumbrances

2.3 Financial Information. (a) The quarterly statements of product line contribution for the year ended December 28, 2007 set forth in Section 2.3(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule (the “Financial Information”), have been prepared from the books and records of the Seller and present fairly in all material respects the revenues and direct expenses of the Business for such period. The revenues and direct expenses set forth in the Financial Information were recognized in accordance with the Seller’s historical revenue recognition and expense policies and practices all of which are consistent with GAAP. Any allocations made by Seller and applicable to the expenses recorded on the statements of revenue and expenses have been made and recorded on a systematic and rational basis. The Seller maintains a system of internal accounting controls applicable to the Business sufficient to provide reasonable assurances, with respect to the Seller and its Subsidiaries, that (i) all transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (ii) all transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain proper accountability for items. The Seller’s enterprise-wide system of internal accounting controls is sufficient as applicable to the Seller and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to provide reasonable assurances that (i) access to their properties and assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization and (ii) the recorded accountability for items is compared with the actual levels at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

(b) Section 2.3(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth the amounts, as of March 31, 2008, by category of the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets. There are no credits, prepaid expenses, deferred charges, advance payments, security deposits, prepaid items or duties that are primarily, but not exclusively, related to any Transferred Assets that are individually or in the aggregate material to the Business.

2.4 Intellectual Property.

(a) Section 2.4(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete and accurate list of any and all contracts pursuant to which the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has granted to any Person any express right to use, exercise, or otherwise practice any right under any Transferred IP, indicating for each such contract the title, the parties, the date executed, and whether or not it is exclusive, other than (i) contracts pursuant to which a customer purchasing or licensing a Seller Product from the Seller in the ordinary course of business acquires only a nonexclusive right to use such product , and (ii) contracts entered into after the date of this Agreement by the Seller without violation of Section 4.2 (the “Outbound IP Licenses”).

(b) Section 2.4(b)(i) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete and accurate list of any and all written contracts pursuant to which the Seller or

any of its Subsidiaries is a party and has been granted any express right by the other party to use, exercise, or otherwise practice any right under any Intellectual Property of such other party used in or necessary to the conduct of the Business as currently conducted by the Seller, and which are being transferred to the Purchaser, indicating for each such contract the title, the parties, the date executed, and whether or not it is exclusive (the “Transferred Inbound IP Licenses” and together with the Outbound IP Licenses, the “IP Contracts”). Section 2.4(b)(ii) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete and accurate list of any and all written contracts pursuant to which the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has been granted any express right to use, exercise, or otherwise practice any right under any Intellectual Property of such other party that is related to any Seller Product and either (x) is incorporated into any Seller Product (or any component thereof) or any item of Transferred Non-Patent IP, or (y) comprises a software tool necessary for the development, design, support, or maintenance of any Seller Product, but which in each case, are not being transferred to the Purchaser, indicating for each such contract or arrangement the title, the parties, the date executed, and whether or not it is exclusive (the “Non-Transferred Inbound IP Licenses”).

(c) The Transferred Non-Patent IP, the Transferred Patents, the Intellectual Property that is the subject of the Transferred Inbound IP Licenses or the Non-Transferred Inbound IP Licenses, the Licensed Non-Patent IP, and the Licensed Patents collectively include all of the Intellectual Property owned by or licensed to the Seller that (i) is incorporated into any Seller Product (or any component thereof) or any item of Transferred Non-Patent IP, or (ii) comprises a software tool necessary for the development, design, support, or maintenance of any Seller Product or any item of Transferred Non-Patent IP.

(d) Each IP Contract that is transferred to the Purchaser is valid, subsisting and enforceable against the other party, and is in full force and effect, subject to applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and general principles of equity, and will continue to be so immediately following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Seller is not subject to any outstanding order, judgment or decree materially adversely affecting the Seller’s or its Subsidiaries’ rights under the IP Contracts that are transferred to the Purchaser. To the Seller’s Knowledge, no claim has been threatened or asserted in writing that the Seller or its Subsidiaries, or (to the Seller’s Knowledge) another Person, has materially breached any IP Contract that is transferred to the Purchaser. To the Seller’s Knowledge, there exists no event, condition or occurrence that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a material breach or default by the Seller or its Subsidiaries, or to the Seller’s Knowledge another Person, under any IP Contract. No party to any IP Contract that is transferred to the Purchaser has given notice of its intention to cancel, terminate, change the scope of rights under, or fail to renew such contract. Neither the Seller nor its Subsidiaries, nor to the Seller’s Knowledge any other party to any IP Contract, has repudiated in writing any IP Contract that is transferred to the Purchaser. Consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not place the Seller or its Subsidiaries in breach or default of any IP Contract that is transferred to the Purchaser, or trigger any modification, termination or acceleration thereunder, or create any license

under or lien on Transferred IP (except for licenses or liens granted or created by, or imposed on, the Purchaser or its assets independently of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

(e) Except as set forth in Section 2.4(e) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, immediately prior to the Closing, the Seller (or in the case of any Local Purchase Agreement, the relevant Seller Affiliate) will exclusively own (beneficially and in the case of Patents or otherwise as applicable, of record), and will assign, transfer and convey to the Purchaser all right, title, and interest to and in all Transferred IP free and clear of any liens or other material encumbrances (other than encumbrances arising under the Transferred Contracts).

(f) The Seller and its Subsidiaries have taken commercially reasonable steps to preserve the confidential nature of the Transferred IP that they, in their reasonable business judgment, determine should be held as confidential or proprietary (including, without limitation, any trade secrets). Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller and its Subsidiaries have enforced a policy of requiring each employee, consultant, contractor, and potential business partner or investor receiving access to such Transferred IP to execute confidentiality agreements substantially consistent with the Seller’s standard forms thereof (complete and current forms of which have been delivered or made available to the Purchaser). To the Seller’s Knowledge, except under valid and binding confidentiality obligations, there has been no material disclosure by the Seller of any information related to the Transferred IP that Seller, in its reasonable business judgment, determined should be held as confidential information or a trade secret. To the Seller’s Knowledge, the Seller’s and its Subsidiaries’ employees’ performance of their employment activities does not violate any Person’s Intellectual Property Rights or any such employee’s contractual obligation to any Person regarding a noncompetition restriction or misuse of such Person’s trade secrets.

(g) To the Seller’s Knowledge, all Registered IP (other than pending applications for Registered IP) is valid, subsisting, and enforceable. The Seller is not subject to any outstanding order, judgment, decree issued by a court of competent jurisdiction adversely affecting the Seller’s or its Subsidiaries’ use of, or rights to, such Registered IP. All filings, payments, and other actions required to be made or taken to maintain each item of Registered IP in full force and effect have been made by the applicable deadline. Section 2.4(g) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules is a complete and accurate list of all actions (including payment of fees) necessary within the 120 day-period following the Closing Date, to maintain or otherwise to keep in full force and effect the Registered IP. As of the date of this Agreement, no interference, opposition, reissue, reexamination, or other legal proceeding is pending or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened, in which the scope, validity, ownership, right to use, or enforceability of any Registered IP is being contested or challenged.

(h) Neither the conduct of Business as conducted in the past or as currently conducted, any Transferred Non-Patent IP, nor any Seller Product has or does infringe upon, misappropriate, dilute, violate or constitute the unauthorized use of any Intellectual Property Rights of any Person. Except as set forth in Section 2.4(h) of the

Seller Disclosure Schedules, neither the Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries has been notified of any allegation that any Seller Product or the conduct of the Business infringes upon, misappropriates, dilutes or violates the Intellectual Property Rights of any Person. To the Seller’s Knowledge, no valid basis for any such claim exists. Since January 1, 2002, no Person has notified the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries that (i) any of such Person’s Intellectual Property Rights are infringed, misappropriated, diluted, violated, or used without authorization by Seller or any of its Affiliates in the conduct of the Business, or (ii) the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries requires a license to any of such Person’s Intellectual Property Rights in order to conduct the Business as currently conducted. Further, neither the Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries has received a written offer from any Person to license any of such Person’s Intellectual Property Rights in connection with its conduct of the Business by the Seller and its Affiliates.

(i) Except to the extent disclosed in Section 2.4(h) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, there is no litigation, opposition, cancellation, proceeding, objection, or claim pending, asserted or, to the Seller’s Knowledge, threatened against the Seller or its Subsidiaries concerning the ownership, validity, registerability, enforceability, infringement or use of, or licensed right to use, any Intellectual Property used in the conduct of the Business.

(j) To the Seller’s Knowledge, no Person is misappropriating, infringing, diluting or violating any Transferred IP and no such claims have been brought or threatened against any Person by or on behalf of the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries.

(k) To the Seller’s Knowledge, all Transferred IP comprising software (except that designated as currently under development) owned by or licensed to the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries is free from (i) any major defect that cannot reasonably be remedied by the application of a patch, bugfix, error correction, or workaround of a commercially-reasonable scope and character; or (ii) any other defect that renders such software, when used by Seller’s intended customers within normal operating parameters, substantially incapable of performing its critical core functions as described in the related documentation and specifications, which defect cannot reasonably be remedied by the application of a patch, bugfix, error correction, or workaround of a commercially-reasonable scope and character. With respect to software owned by the Seller and its Subsidiaries, the applications thereof can be compiled from the associated source code using commercially reasonable means of compilation. Except as disclosed in Section 2.4(k) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, the Transferred IP comprising software owned by the Seller and its Subsidiaries is not the subject of any escrow or similar agreement or arrangement giving any third party rights in such software upon the occurrence of certain events.

(l) Section 2.4(l) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules sets forth a complete and accurate list of the Seller Products, including any Transferred Non-Patent IP and any Licensed Non-Patent IP, that are, in whole or in part, subject to any open source or other type of license agreement or distribution model that: (i) requires the distribution or making available of the source code for the Seller Products, (ii) prohibits or limits the Seller or any of its Subsidiaries from charging a fee or receiving

consideration in connection with licensing, sublicensing, or distributing any Seller Product, (iii) except as specifically permitted by law, grants any right to any Person (other than the Seller and its Subsidiaries) or otherwise allows any such Person to decompile, disassemble, or otherwise reverse-engineer any Seller Product, or (iv) requires the licensing of any Seller Product for the purpose of making derivative works (any such open source or other type of license agreement or distribution model described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) above, a “Limited License”). By way of clarification, but not limitation, the term “Limited License” shall include: (A) GNU’s General Public License (GPL) or Lesser/Library GPL (LGPL); (B) the Artistic License (e.g., PERL); (C) the Mozilla Public License; (D) the Netscape Public License; (E) the Sun Community Source License (SCSL); and (F) the Sun Industry Standards License (SISL). Except as set forth in Section 2.4(l) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, the Seller does not incorporate or distribute any of the Seller Products with any software that is subject to a Limited License, nor does any Seller Product constitute a derivative work of, statically link with, or otherwise interact with any such software. To the Seller’s Knowledge, Seller’s use of the software identified in Section 2.4(l) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules in the Transferred Non-Patent IP does not result in the grant of a Limited License of any proprietary software of the Seller or a third party.

(m) Except as set forth in Section 2.4(m) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, no government funding, facilities of a university, college, other educational institution, or research center, or funding from any Person was used in the creation or development of the Transferred IP in a manner that would give such government, university, college, educational institution, or research center any rights in the Transferred IP as a result. Except as set forth in Section 2.4(m) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, neither the Seller nor any of its Subsidiaries is party to any contract, license, or agreement with any Governmental Entity that grants to such Governmental Entity any right or license with respect to the Transferred IP.

(n) Since January 1, 2006, Seller has not sold, assigned or otherwise disposed of any Patent used in or necessary for the Business to any third party (including through any exclusive license or other arrangement that transfers the economic rights or management of any such Patent).

2.5 Transferred Contracts. Each Transferred Contract identified on Schedule 1.1(d) is valid, is in full force and effect and is enforceable against each party thereto in accordance with the express terms thereof. With respect to each Transferred Contract: (a) the Seller has not (and to the Seller’s Knowledge no other Person has) breached or violated such Transferred Contract and (b) there has not been an event of default, or any event or condition that, after notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a violation, breach or event of default thereunder on the part of the Seller, or to the Seller’s Knowledge, any other party thereto. There are no material disputes pending or to the Seller’s Knowledge threatened under any Transferred Contract.

2.6 Transferred Subsidiary. There are no outstanding shares of capital stock or other securities of the Transferred Subsidiary other than the Transferred Shares. The Seller (or a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Seller) is the sole record and beneficial

In the event that the Seller or any of its Affiliates receives an inquiry related to such a transaction, the Seller will provide the Purchaser with notice thereof as soon as

practicable after receipt thereof, which notice shall include the identity of the prospective purchaser or soliciting party and the material terms of the proposal or solicitation except to the extent that such disclosure by the Seller would violate or breach a binding non-disclosure agreement in effect prior to the date of this Agreement to which the Seller is a party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4.6 or elsewhere in this Agreement, if the Seller receives a bona fide written Takeover Proposal not solicited by the Seller in violation of this Section 4.6 and the Board of Directors of the Seller determines in good faith, after consulting with independent legal counsel of recognized standing, that the following actions are required to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable law, then the Seller may, in response to such Takeover Proposal: (A) furnish information concerning the Business to the Person making such Takeover Proposal (and to such Person’s representatives); and (B) participate in discussions and negotiations with such Person (and with such Person’s representatives) regarding such Takeover Proposal; provided that, in that circumstance, the Purchaser may provide to the Person making such Takeover Proposal access to no more information regarding the Business and the Transferred Assets than that received by the Purchaser prior to execution of this Agreement and for a period of no more than twenty (20) Business Days, and/or engage in discussions with the Person making such Takeover Proposal and its representatives subject to the requirement that the Seller shall have first received an executed confidentiality agreement that is no more favorable to such person than the confidentiality agreement to which the Purchaser was subject prior to entering into this Agreement and, in the case of a Person that is a party to an existing non-disclosure agreement with the Seller prohibiting the Seller from identifying such Person to the Purchaser, the Seller shall have received an executed amendment to such non-disclosure agreement authorizing the Seller to provide to the Purchaser the notice and information described in the second sentence of this Section 4.6(a).

(b) The parties acknowledge that there may be no adequate remedy at law for a breach of Section 4.6(a) and that money damages may not be an appropriate remedy for breach of such Section in addition to any rights it may have for damages. Therefore, the parties agree that the Purchaser has the right to injunctive relief and specific performance of Section 4.6(a) in the event of any breach of such Section. The remedies set forth in this Section 4.6(b) are cumulative and shall in no way limit any other remedy any party hereto has at law, in equity or pursuant hereto.

(a) During the Pre-Closing Period, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, the Seller shall treat as confidential and shall safeguard any and all confidential information, knowledge and data applicable to the Business or otherwise included in the Transferred Assets, in each case by using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable standard of care, to prevent the unauthorized use, dissemination or disclosure of such information, knowledge and data as the Seller and its Affiliates use with respect to similar confidential or proprietary information, knowledge or data prior to the execution of this Agreement.

(b) The Purchaser and the Seller acknowledge that the confidentiality obligations set forth herein shall not extend to information, knowledge and data that is publicly available or becomes publicly available through no act or omission of the party owing a duty of confidentiality, or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the party owing a duty of confidentiality so long as such source is not known by such party to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the other party.

8.2 Indemnification by the Seller.

(a) The Seller hereby agrees that from and after the Closing it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Purchaser, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees (other than the Transferred Employees) and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such (the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”, and collectively with the Seller Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any Losses imposed on, sustained,

incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of third party claims, claims between the parties hereto, or otherwise, directly or indirectly relating to or arising out of:

(i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by the Seller contained in this Agreement, the Seller Closing Certificate or any other Transactional Agreement (it being understood that, for purposes of this Section 8.2(a), any qualifications relating to materiality, including the term “Material Adverse Effect”, or relating to knowledge contained in such representation or warranty shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the amount of Losses incurred);

(ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Seller or any of its Affiliates contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, other than Section 4.2(b)(x);

(iii) any failure to timely fulfill or discharge any of the Excluded Liabilities;

(iv) except as provided for in Section 8.2(a)(v), (x) Taxes (but not including any such Taxes paid by the Seller prior to the Closing Date or to the extent that the Seller maintained a specific reserve or provision for such Taxes in the Financial Information) imposed on the Seller (including, without limitation, any obligation to contribute to the payment of a Tax determined on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis with respect to a group of corporations that includes or included the Seller) with respect to taxable periods of the Seller ending on or before the Closing Date; and (y) with respect to taxable periods beginning before the Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date, Taxes (but not including any such Taxes paid by the Seller prior to the Closing Date to the extent the Seller maintained a specific reserve or provision for such Taxes or in the Financial Information) imposed on the Seller which are allocable pursuant to the next sentence, to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before the Closing Date and ends after the Closing Date, the portion of any such Tax that is allocable to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be in the case of Taxes that are either (A) based upon or related to income or receipts, or (B) imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property (real or personal, tangible or intangible) (other than conveyances pursuant to this Agreement), deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date (except that, solely for purposes of determining the marginal tax rate applicable to income or receipts during such period in a jurisdiction in which such tax rate depends upon the level of income or receipts, annualized income or receipts may be taken into account if appropriate for an equitable sharing of such Taxes); and in the case of Taxes not described in clause (x) that are imposed on a periodic basis and measured by the level of any item, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire period;

(v) Taxes payable by the Transferred Subsidiary to the extent attributable to any period prior to the Closing Date, as determined under Section 8.2(a)(iv), except to the extent liability for such taxes is accrued on the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet. Notwithstanding any other section of this Agreement, the indemnification under this Section 8.2(a)(v) shall survive until sixty days after the statute of limitations for assessments closes for the Transferred Subsidiary under the laws under which such Taxes may become payable; and

(vi) any inaccuracy in the amount of the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Assets or the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities as reflected on the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement;

(i) Except with respect to claims based on (w) fraud, (x) willful breach of a covenant, (y) breach of any post-closing covenant or (z) any matter contemplated by clauses (a)(iii), (a)(iv) or (a)(v) of Section 8.2, the indemnification provided in this Section 8 shall be the sole and exclusive post-Closing monetary remedy available to the Purchaser, as against the Seller or any of its Affiliates, for any Losses arising under or related to this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement, it being understood that nothing in this Section 8.2(b)(i) or elsewhere in this Agreement shall affect any party’s rights to specific performance or other equitable remedies with respect to the covenants referred to in this Agreement.

(ii) Except with respect to claims based on (v) fraud, (w) willful breach of a covenant, (x) breach of any post-closing covenant, (y) breach of the IP Representations or Seller Extended Representations or (z) indemnification pursuant to clauses (a)(iii), (a)(iv) or (a)(v) of Section 8.2, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller under this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement shall not exceed $12.5 million plus the amount of any Contingent Payment. Except with respect to claims based on fraud, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller with respect to IP Representations shall not exceed $31.25 million plus the amount of any Contingent Payment; provided, however, except with respect to claims based on (v) fraud, (w) willful breach of a covenant, (x) breach of any post-closing covenant, (y) breach of the Seller Extended Representations or (z) indemnification pursuant to clauses (a)(iii), (a)(iv) or (a)(v) of Section 8.2, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses, that may be recovered from the Seller under this Agreement or any other Transactional Agreement, including those with respect to the IP Representations, shall not exceed $31.25 million plus the amount of any Contingent Payment. Except with respect to claims based on (x) fraud, (y) breach of any post-closing covenant or (z) indemnification pursuant to clauses (a)(iii), (a)(iv) or (a)(v) of Section 8.2, the maximum aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered from the Seller under this Agreement shall be equal to the Purchase Price plus the amount of any Contingent Payment.

(iii) Except with respect to claims based on (v) fraud, (w) willful breach of a covenant, (x) breach of any post-closing covenant, (y) breach of the Seller Extended Representations or (z) indemnification pursuant to clauses (a)(iii), (a)(iv) or (a)(v) of Section 8.2 (such clauses (v), (w), (x), (y) and (z), collectively “Non-Basketed Losses”), no indemnification payment by the Seller with respect to any indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable under Section 8.2(a) or any other Transactional Agreement shall be payable until such time as all such indemnifiable Losses made or paid under Section 8.2(a) shall aggregate to more than $375,000 (the “Deductible”), after which time the Seller shall be liable for all indemnifiable Losses exceeding the Deductible. In addition, except with respect to any Non-Basketed Losses, no indemnification payment by the Seller with respect to any indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable under Section 8.2(a) or any other Transactional Agreement shall be payable in respect of any indemnification claim or series of indemnification claims arising from the same or similar underlying event or circumstance unless such claim is for Losses in an amount of at least $10,000.

(c) The Purchaser may set off any amounts due to the Purchaser under the terms of this Section 8 against the Contingent Payment that may be owed to the Seller pursuant to Section 1.6(a) and shall not be obligated to make any such Contingent Payment to the extent of a bona fide claim for indemnification made under this Section 8 pending final resolution of such claim.

8.3 Indemnification by the Purchaser.

(a) The Purchaser hereby agrees that from and after the Closing it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any Losses imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Seller Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of third party claims, claims between the parties hereto, or otherwise, directly or indirectly relating to, arising out of or resulting from, (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement for the period such representation or warranty survives, (ii) any failure to timely discharge or fulfill any of the Assumed Liabilities, (iii) any failure of the Transferred Subsidiary to timely discharge or fulfill any Transferred Subsidiary Closing Liabilities to the extent such Liabilities are accrued on the Transferred Subsidiary Closing Balance Sheet, and (iv) any breach of a covenant or agreement of the Purchaser contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

time as all such indemnifiable Losses made or paid under Section 8.3(a) shall aggregate to more than $375,000, after which time the Purchaser shall be liable in full for all indemnifiable Losses exceeding such amount. In addition, no indemnification payment by the Purchaser with respect to any indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable under Section 8.3(a)(i) or any other Transactional Agreement shall be payable in respect of any indemnification claim or series of indemnification claims arising from the same or similar underlying event or circumstance unless such claim is for Losses in an amount of at least $10,000.

8.4 Third Party Claim Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that any written claim or demand for which an indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may have liability to any Indemnified Party hereunder, other than those relating to Taxes (which are the subject of Section 2.14) is asserted against or sought to be collected from any Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than ten days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of a Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Third Party Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Third Party Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto (a “Claim Notice”); provided, however, that the failure timely to give a Claim Notice shall affect the rights of an Indemnified Party hereunder only to the extent that such failure has a prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after receipt of the Claim Notice (the “Notice Period”) to notify the Indemnified Party that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim unless the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party in the Claim Notice that it has determined in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that such Third Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages; it being understood that by assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall conclusively acknowledge that it has an indemnity obligation with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party within the Notice Period that it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control such defense, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party at its expense. Once the Indemnifying Party has duly assumed the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any such defense and to employ separate counsel of its choosing. The Indemnified Party shall participate in any such defense at its expense unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are both named parties to the proceedings and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, or (ii)

the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim after the Indemnifying Party has failed to diligently pursue a Third Party Claim it has assumed, as provided in the first sentence of Section 8.4(c). The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, settle, compromise or offer to settle or compromise any Third Party Claim on a basis that would result in (i) the imposition of a consent order, injunction or decree that would restrict the future activity or conduct of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (ii) a finding or admission of a violation of a Legal Requirement or violation of the rights of any Person by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (iii) a finding or admission that would have an adverse effect on other claims made or threatened against the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, or (iv) any monetary liability of the Indemnified Party that will not be promptly paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to defend the Indemnified Party against a Third Party Claim, whether by not giving the Indemnified Party timely notice of its desire to so defend or otherwise, (ii) is not entitled to defend the Third Party Claim as a result of the Indemnified Party’s election to defend the Third Party Claim as provided in Section 8.4(a), or (iii) after assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third Party Claim within ten days after receiving written notice from the Indemnified Party to the effect that the Indemnifying Party has so failed, the Indemnified Party shall have the right but not the obligation to assume its own defense; it being understood that the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification for a Third Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Party shall not settle a Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(d) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of a Third Party Claim, including by providing access to each other’s relevant business records and other documents, and employees; it being understood that the costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party relating thereto shall be Losses.

(e) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use reasonable efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with applicable Legal Requirements), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.

8.5 Claims Procedure. If an Indemnified Party wishes to make a claim for indemnification hereunder for a Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of such Direct Claim, the amount or the estimated amount of damages sought thereunder to the extent then ascertainable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Direct Claim), any other remedy sought thereunder, any relevant time constraints relating thereto and, to the extent practicable, any other material details pertaining thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of 30 days within which to respond

to any Direct Claim or any Claim Notice relating to a Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have accepted such Claim. If the Indemnifying Party rejects all or any part of such Claim, the Seller and the Purchaser shall attempt in good faith for 30 days to resolve such claim. If no such agreement can be reached through good faith negotiation within 30 days, either the Purchaser or the Seller may commence an action in accordance with Section 10.3.

8.6 Adjustments to Losses.

(a) Insurance. In calculating the amount of any Loss, the proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates under any insurance policy or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person in each case relating to the Third Party Claim or the Direct Claim, net of any actual costs, expenses or premiums incurred in connection with securing or obtaining such proceeds, shall be deducted, except to the extent that the adjustment itself would excuse, exclude or limit the coverage of all or part of such Loss. In the event that an Indemnified Party has any rights against a third party with respect to any occurrence, claim or loss that results in a payment by an Indemnifying Party under this Section 8, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to such rights to the extent of such payment; provided that until the Indemnified Party recovers full payment of the Loss related to any such Direct Claim, any and all claims of the Indemnifying Party against any such third party on account of said indemnity payment is hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Indemnified Party’s rights against such third party. Without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, each Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party shall duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the subrogation and subordination rights detailed herein, and otherwise cooperate in the prosecution of such claims.

(b) Reimbursement. If an Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder after all or a portion of such Loss has been paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 8, the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Loss, plus the amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the full amount of Loss.

8.7 Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 8, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnified Party of a ▇▇▇▇, together with all accompanying reasonably detailed back-up documentation, for a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party in good faith disputes the Loss, in which event it shall so notify the Indemnified Party. In any event, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Loss for which it is liable hereunder no later than three days following any final determination of such Loss and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor.

9. EMPLOYEE MATTERS.

9.1 Employment Matters.

(a) Immediately prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, extend, to each Specified Employee, an offer of employment (the “Offer Letter”) that, if accepted, would: (i) provide such Specified Employee with compensation, benefits and terms of employment (including job title) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the compensation, benefits and terms of employment provided by the Seller (or any applicable Affiliate of the Seller) to such Specified Employee immediately prior to the Closing (excluding equity based plans, defined benefit pension plans, retiree medical programs and severance plans and practices); and (ii) include a consent by each Specified Employee to disclosure of the Specified Employee’s personnel file and transfer of such personnel file and other employment records pertaining to such Specified Employee, to the Purchaser. Effective on the Closing Date, the Seller (or the applicable Affiliate of the Seller) shall accept the resignation of, and effective as of the Closing Date, the Purchaser will hire each such Specified Employee who accepts and executes the Offer Letter (such employees who commence working for the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) immediately following the Closing, collectively the “Hired Employees”). The Seller consents to the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) contacting such Specified Employees with respect to the desire of such employees to enter the employ of the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) and the Seller shall cooperate with the efforts of the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) to cause such Specified Employees to accept any offers of employment by the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) and to execute Offer Letters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed as to prevent the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) from terminating the employment of any Hired Employee at any time after the Closing Date for any reason (or no reason), except as set forth in the Offer Letter of such Specified Employee executed by the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) pursuant to this Section 9.1. The Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser on or before the Closing Date (or as soon as reasonably practicable after the

Closing Date) all personnel files and employment records relating to the Hired Employees. Hired Employees will receive credit for such employees’ period of employment with the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) for purposes of calculating severance benefits required under any Legal Requirements and benefits under any vacation, entitled leave or severance plan (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any 401(k) plan) and the Purchaser’s Offer Letter to Hired Employees in the United States will include a provision that the Purchaser will assume the Seller’s obligation with respect to accrued but untaken vacation entitlements existing as of the Closing Date up to a maximum of 40 hours for any Hired Employee (collectively, the “Assumed Accrued Vacation”) and the Hired Employee would consent to this in lieu of payment from the Seller for that portion of any accrued vacation entitlement; provided, however, that if a Hired Employee received severance payment in connection with this Transaction or the transfer of such employee’s employment from the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) to the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) such Hired Employee shall not receive credit from the Purchaser for such employee’s employment with the Seller (or any of its Affiliates) for purposes of severance benefits; provided, further, that a Hired Employee shall only be entitled to receive credit from the Purchaser for such employee’s employment with the Seller (or any of its Affiliates) to the extent recognized by the Seller (or its Affiliates) under the applicable similar Seller Plan, provided that such crediting of service does not result in any duplication of benefits. Effective as of the Closing, the Purchaser shall assume the Seller’s obligations with respect to the Assumed Accrued Vacation.

(b) If any inactive employee of the Seller listed on Schedule 9.1(b) who would otherwise have received an offer of employment from the Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.1(a), becomes eligible to return from an approved leave of absence to active work status after the Closing Date during the 6-month period following the commencement of that leave (or such shorter period following the commencement of that leave during which he would be entitled to reemployment under either applicable Legal Requirements or the Seller’s policies and procedures in existence immediately prior to the Closing Date), the Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, extend an offer of employment to such person and any such person who accepts such an offer and commences working for the Purchaser(or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) shall be treated as a Hired Employee as of the date of hire by the Purchaser; provided, however, that no such employee of the Seller shall be guaranteed reinstatement to active service if he is incapable of working in accordance with the policies, practices and procedures of the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) or if his return to employment is contrary to the terms of his leave.

9.2 Special Jurisdiction Employees.

(a) Effective as of immediately after the Closing, the Purchaser agrees to (or to cause its applicable Affiliates to) employ the Special Jurisdiction Employees at least to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements (other than those who are inactive as of the Closing Date to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements). For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchaser shall provide each Special

Jurisdiction Employee with compensation, benefits and terms of employment (including job title) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the compensation, benefits and terms of employment provided by the Seller (or any applicable Affiliate of the Seller) to such Special Jurisdiction Employee immediately prior to the Closing (excluding equity based plans, defined benefit pension plans, retiree medical programs and severance plans and packages), and the Purchaser shall provide each Special Jurisdiction Employee credit for such employees’ period of employment with the Seller (or an Affiliate of the Seller) for purposes of calculating severance benefits required under any Legal Requirement and benefits under any vacation, entitled leave or severance plan. The Parties shall cooperate with each other to comply with all applicable provisions of the European Union Acquired Rights Directive or other country-specific legal standards or applicable laws in connection with the termination of the Special Jurisdiction Employees. The Seller shall pay to the Purchaser an amount equal to the accrued liabilities recorded by the Seller for vacation or other paid time off as of the Closing Date.

(b) If any inactive employee of the Seller (or any Affiliate of the Seller) listed on Schedule 9.2(b) who would otherwise have received an offer of employment from the Purchaser in accordance with Section 9.2(a), becomes eligible to return from an approved leave of absence to active work status after the Closing Date during the 6-month period following the commencement of that leave (or such shorter period following the commencement of that leave during which he would be entitled to reemployment under either applicable Legal Requirements or the Seller’s policies and procedures in existence immediately prior to the Closing Date), the Purchaser shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, extend an offer of employment to such person and any such person who accepts such an offer as of the date of hire by the Purchaser (each such person a “Special Jurisdiction Transferred Employee”); provided, however, that no such employee of the Seller shall be guaranteed reinstatement to active service if he is incapable of working in accordance with the policies, practices and procedures of the Purchaser (or an Affiliate of the Purchaser) or if his return to employment is contrary to the terms of his leave.

(c) To the extent any notification or consultation requirements are imposed by applicable Legal Requirements with regard to the Transactions as regards Special Jurisdiction Employees, the Purchaser and the Seller agree to cooperate to ensure that such notification or consultation requirements are completed.

9.3 Waiver of Waiting Period. With respect to each Hired Employee and Special Jurisdiction Transferred Employee, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to waive all waiting periods and pre-existing condition exclusions for group health and dental coverage and shall give appropriate credit for all co-payments and deductibles paid or accrued under the Seller’s employee benefit plans for the plan year in which the Closing occurs.

9.4 Certain Foreign National Employees. The parties recognize that the Specified Employees listed on Schedule 9.4 are in nonimmigrant visa status or have applications for lawful permanent residence pending with the relevant Governmental Entities (the “Affected Foreign National Employees”). The parties further recognize that

new or amended petitions with respect to such Affected Foreign National Employees may be required in certain of these cases identified on Schedule 9.4, unless the Purchaser (or any of the Purchaser’s Affiliates, as the case may be), is deemed the “successor-in- interest” to the Seller (as such term is used in pronouncements by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (“USCIS”)) with respect to such Affected Foreign National Employees. Accordingly, the Purchaser hereby agrees to assume, the Seller’s obligations to the USCIS as “successor-in-interest under such pending applications with respect to the related Affected Foreign National Employees (including any obligations arising from or under attestations made in each certified and still effective Labor Condition Application (“LCA”) filed by the Seller with respect to any such Affected Foreign National Employees); provided that such assumption shall not grant to any such Affected Foreign National Employee any rights enforceable by such employee against the Purchaser. Each party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as may reasonably be requested at and following the Closing Date to document to the USCIS or such other Governmental Entity, as the case may be, as may be necessary to memorialize the “successor-in-interest” relationship with respect to any Affected Foreign National Employees. The Seller shall provide the Purchaser with true and complete copies of all applications, petitions and other documentation related to the Affected Foreign National Employees’ immigration status on or before the Closing Date.

9.5 W-2/Payroll Matters. The Seller and the Purchaser shall adopt the “standard procedure” for preparing and filing IRS Forms W-2 (Wage and Tax Statements), as described in Revenue Procedure 2004-53. Under this procedure, the Purchaser, as the successor employer, shall provide, as applicable, all required Forms W-2 to all Hired Employees reflecting all wages paid and Taxes withheld by the Purchaser as the successor employer for the portion of the calendar year beginning on the day after the Closing Date. Sellers as the predecessor employer shall provide Forms W-2 to all Hired Employees reflecting all wages paid and taxes withheld by Sellers or its Affiliate for the portion of the calendar year beginning January 1, 2008 and ending on the Closing Date. In addition, the Seller and the Purchaser shall adopt the “standard procedure” of Revenue Procedure 2004-53 for purposes of filing IRS Forms W-4 (Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate) and W-5 (Earned Income Credit Advance Payment Certificate). Under this procedure, the Seller shall keep on file all IRS Forms W-4 and W-5 provided by the Hired Employees for the period required by applicable law concerning record retention and the Purchaser will obtain new IRS Forms W-4 and W-5 with respect to each Hired Employee.

9.6 Accrued Amounts. The Seller shall pay (a) to each Hired Employee employed as of the Closing Date an amount equal to such employee’s accrued vacation or other paid time off as of the Closing Date, excluding any Assumed Accrued Vacation, and (b) other than as mandated by Legal Requirement, which shall be set forth on Section 9.6(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedules, to each Special Jurisdiction Transferred Employee an amount equal to such employee’s accrued vacation or other paid time off as of the Closing Date.

9.7 COBRA. The Seller shall be responsible for all liabilities relating to or arising under COBRA and any similar state law for employees of the Business and their beneficiaries who experience a “qualifying event” (as defined under COBRA) at any time on or prior to the Closing Date. The Seller agrees that it shall be the Seller’s sole responsibility to provide the required notices under COBRA to all M&A Qualified Beneficiaries (as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 54.4980B-9, Q&A 4), and to provide coverage under COBRA to such individuals.

9.8 WARN. The Seller shall be responsible for providing or discharging any and all notifications, benefits and liabilities to, as applicable, Specified Employees and Governmental Entities required by the WARN Act due to Employment Loss occurring to Specified Employees as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall be responsible for any obligation with respect to the Hired Employees under the WARN Act arising solely as a result of action taken by the Purchaser on or after the Closing Date.

9.9 No Third Party Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall (i) be treated as an amendment of any particular employee benefit plan, (ii) give any third party any right to enforce the provisions of this Section 9 or (iii) obligate the Purchaser (or any Affiliate of the Purchaser) to (x) maintain any particular employee benefit plan or (y) retain the employment of any particular employee.

9.10 Employee Communications. Prior to making any written or oral communications to the Specified Employees and the Special Jurisdiction Employees pertaining to compensation or benefit matters that are affected by the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with a copy of the intended communication, the Purchaser shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on the communication, and the Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate in providing any such mutually agreeable communication.

9.11 401(k) Plan. The account balances of the Hired Employees who participate in the retirement plan maintained by Seller or its Affiliate that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code and that contains a cash or deferred arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Code (“Seller 401(k) Plan”) shall be fully vested as of the Closing Date and the Seller shall take any actions necessary to ensure that such account balances are distributable from the Seller 401(k) Plan on and after the Closing Date.

10. MISCELLANEOUS.

10.1 No Implied Representations. The Parties acknowledge that, except as expressly set forth in Sections 2 and 3 and in the Ancillary Agreements, neither Party has made or is making any representations or warranties whatsoever to the other, implied or otherwise.

10.2 Further Actions.

(a) From and after the Closing Date, each party hereto shall cooperate (and shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate) with the other party, and shall cause to be executed and delivered such documents and cause such other actions to be taken as the other party may reasonably request, for the purpose of evidencing and consummating the Transactions.

(b) The Purchaser: (i) acknowledges that certain of the Transferred Assets may inadvertently include or have incorporated into them certain other assets that are not part of the Transferred Assets (such as, by way of example only, information or software retained on a computer hard drive); (ii) agrees to promptly convey such other assets to the Seller, or dispose of such other assets, each in the manner reasonably requested by the Seller (provided that the Purchaser and the Seller shall jointly share any out-of-pocket cost or expense associated with the foregoing); and (iii) agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Seller, neither it nor any of its Affiliates will use any of such other assets in any way whatsoever or disclose any information contained in such other assets or use such other assets for the benefit of the Purchaser or its Affiliates or any other third party (other than the Seller and its Affiliates).

(c) The Seller: (i) acknowledges that certain Transferred Assets may inadvertently not be transferred and delivered as of the Closing Date; (ii) agrees to promptly convey such assets to the Purchaser in the manner reasonably requested by the Purchaser (provided that the Purchaser and the Seller shall jointly share any out-of-pocket cost or expense associated with the foregoing); and (iii) agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, neither it nor any of its Affiliates will use any of such assets in any way whatsoever or disclose any information contained in such assets or use such assets for the benefit of the Seller or its Affiliates or any other third party (other than the Purchaser and its Affiliates).

(d) The Seller shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain all Seller Required Approvals not obtained on or before the Closing Date as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date; provided, however, that none of the Seller or the Purchaser nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to pay any consideration to obtain any Seller Required Approvals other than, in the case of any Seller Required Approval that is a consent relating to a contract, any de minimis fees, expenses or other consideration or other fees or expenses required to be paid pursuant to the express provisions of such contract, which consideration, fees or expenses shall be paid by the Seller.

During the period beginning upon the Closing and ending on the third anniversary of the Closing (the “Non-Solicitation Period”) the Parties shall not, and shall ensure that their respective Affiliates do not, without the prior written consent of the other Party, directly or indirectly solicit for employment (including by contracting through an independent contractor, consultant or other third party) any Restricted Employee of the other Party. “Restricted Employee” shall mean, in the case of the employees of the Purchaser, any Hired Employee or Special Jurisdiction Transferred Employee, and, in the case of the employees of the Seller, any person who is an employee of the Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date and who has been actively involved in the Transactions or any individual that is identified on Schedule 10.8(a).

10.10 Parties in Interest. Nothing in this Agreement express or implied is intended to provide any rights or remedies to any employee of the Seller or to any other Person other than the Parties, Indemnified Parties and their respective successors, legal representatives and permitted assigns.

10.11 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any Person or set of circumstances, shall be determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable to any extent, (a) a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is determined to be invalid, unlawful, void or unenforceable, will not be affected and will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
