For the avoidance of doubt, unless ▇▇▇▇▇▇ otherwise agrees in writing, (x) the Securityholders Representative may not amend, adjust, supplement or modify the Objection Notice or any amounts set forth therein following its delivery to Parent and (y) the Securityholders Representative shall not be permitted to deliver multiple Objection Notices. The Objection Notice shall set forth any additional information requests of the Securityholders Representative with respect to the Disputed Items. Any components in the Closing Statement not disputed by the Securityholders Representative in the Objection Notice shall be final and binding on the Parties. During the Objection Period, Parent will, and will cause the Surviving Company to, (i) assist the Securityholders Representative in the review of the Closing Statement and provide the Securityholders Representative and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the books, records (including work papers, schedules, memoranda and other documents), supporting data, facilities, and applicable Representatives of Parent and the Surviving Company, including third party accountants and auditors (subject to execution of customary access letters) familiar with such matters or otherwise involved in the preparation of the Closing Statement, in each case, for purposes of the review of the Closing Statement, and (ii) cooperate fully with the Securityholders Representative and its Representatives in connection with such review, including providing on a timely basis all other information necessary or useful in connection with the review of the Closing Statement as is reasonably requested by the Securityholders Representative or its Representatives. In the event Parent does not respond to such information requests within ten (10) Business Days of request thereof, the Objection Period shall be extended by one day for each additional day required by Parent to respond to such request. Within 30 days following timely delivery of the Objection Notice, if any, Parent and the Securityholders Representative shall attempt, in good faith, to resolve all Disputed Items, and, if such Disputed Items are so resolved within such 30-day period, the Closing Statement with such changes as have been agreed in writing by Parent and the Securityholders Representative will be final and binding on the Parties to this Agreement. If Parent and the Securityholders Representative cannot resolve any Disputed Item within such 30-day period (or any extension thereof mutually agreed to by Parent and the Securityholders Representative in writing), then all Disputed Items will be submitted for resolution to a nationally recognized independent accounting firm mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Securityholders Representative in writing (the “Neutral Accountant”), who shall serve as an expert and not an arbitrator. Promptly, but not later than 30 days (or such longer period as may be agreed upon by Parent and the Securityholders Representative in writing) after the Disputed Items have been submitted to the Neutral Accountant, the Neutral Accountant shall determine (based solely on presentations by the Securityholders Representative and Parent to the Neutral Accountant, and not by independent review) only those Disputed Items submitted to the Neutral Accountant and will render its written report as to its resolution of such Disputed Items. No Party shall have any ex parte communications with the Neutral Accountant. In determining any Disputed Item, the Neutral Accountant may not assign a value to such Disputed Item greater than the greatest value for such Disputed Item claimed by either Party (i.e. the Securityholders Representative, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand) or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by either Party. The Securityholders Representative, Parent and the Surviving Company shall cooperate with the Neutral Accountant in making its determination, and such determination shall, absent fraud or manifest error, be conclusive, final and binding upon the Parties. The Neutral Accountant shall ensure that all of its individual representatives that are involved in the dispute resolutions hereunder shall be independent of the Parties. The costs and fees related to such determination by the Neutral Accountant, including the costs relating to any negotiations with the Neutral Accountant with respect to the terms and conditions of such Neutral Accountant’s engagement and any retainer required to be deposited in connection therewith, will be initially shared equally, 50% by Parent, on the one hand, and 50% by the Participating Securityholders (by payment from the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve to the extent such funds are available); provided, that promptly upon the Neutral Accountant’s final determination, all such costs and expenses shall be allocated (which may require direct payments between the Parties hereto) between Surviving Company, on the one

hand, and the Participating Securityholders (by payment from the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve to the extent such funds are available), on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the Disputed Items so submitted to the Neutral Accountant that are unsuccessfully disputed by such party (as finally determined by the Neutral Accountant) bears to the total amount of Disputed Items submitted, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Neutral Accountant at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. For example, if, for a given Disputed Item, the Securityholders Representative contests only $500 of the amount claimed by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, and if the Neutral Accountant ultimately resolves the dispute by awarding Parent $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of the Neutral Accountant will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to Securityholders Representative and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Parent.

(d)The term “Final Closing Merger Consideration” means the Closing Merger Consideration (x) as set forth in the Closing Statement, if the Securityholders Representative accepts the Closing Statement as delivered or does not deliver an Objection Notice during the Objection Period, or (y) as determined pursuant to Section 2.2.2(c), if the Securityholders Representative delivers an Objection Notice during the Objection Period.

(e)If the Final Closing Merger Consideration (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.2.2(d)) is less than the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration (the absolute value of such difference, the “Shortfall”), then the Securityholders Representative and Parent shall provide to the Escrow Agent, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, joint written instructions instructing the Escrow Agent to pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, from the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Parent the lesser of (x) the amount of the Shortfall or (y) the Adjustment Escrow Fund, in each case, in cash within five Business Days after the Final Closing Merger Consideration is finally determined as provided in Section 2.2.2(d). If payment of the Shortfall to Parent pursuant to this Section 2.2.2(e) does not result in distribution of the entire Adjustment Escrow Fund to Parent, then each applicable Participating Securityholder shall be paid its Escrow Pro Rata Share of the remaining amount of the Adjustment Escrow Fund. Such payment shall be made pursuant to joint written instructions from Parent and the Securityholders Representative to the Escrow Agent, to release the applicable portions of the remaining Adjustment Escrow Fund to the Surviving Company or the Paying Agent for the benefit of and distribution to the applicable Participating Securityholders in respect of the applicable Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants in the manner described in Section 2.6.1 for payments in respect of such Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants, in each case within five Business Days after the Final Closing Merger Consideration is determined as provided in Section 2.2.2(d). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, recovery from the Adjustment Escrow Account shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to Parent or any of its Affiliates for any Shortfall and no Securityholder shall have any liability or obligation for any portion of the Shortfall, if any, in excess of the then remaining funds in the Adjustment Escrow Account.

(f)If the Final Closing Merger Consideration (as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.2.2(d)) is greater than the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration, then each Participating Securityholder shall be paid its Escrow Pro Rata Share of (i) the Positive Adjustment Amount (as defined below) plus (ii) the entire Adjustment Escrow Fund then remaining in the Adjustment Escrow Account. For purposes hereof, “Positive Adjustment Amount” means an amount in cash equal to the lesser of (A) $5,000,000 or (B) the amount by which the Final Closing Merger Consideration exceeds the Estimated Closing Merger Consideration. Such payments shall be satisfied by: (x) payment of the Positive Adjustment Amount by Parent or the Surviving Company in cash to the Surviving Company or the Paying Agent for the benefit of and distribution to the applicable Participating Securityholders in respect of the applicable Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company

Warrants in the manner described in Section 2.6.1 for payments in respect of such Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants, in each case within five Business Days after the Final Closing Merger Consideration is determined as provided in Section 2.2.2(d); and (y) release of the entire Adjustment Escrow Fund (which release shall be made pursuant to joint written instructions to be provided by the Securityholders Representative and Parent) by the Escrow Agent to the Surviving Company or the Paying Agent for the benefit of and distribution to the applicable Participating Securityholders in respect of the applicable Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants in the manner described in Section 2.6.1 for payments in respect of such Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants, in each case within five Business Days after the Final Closing Merger Consideration is determined as provided in Section 2.2.2(d). The Securityholders Representative and Parent shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to make any distributions from the Adjustment Escrow Account required hereby.

(g)Any payment made under this Section 2.2 shall constitute as an adjustment to the Closing Merger Consideration for all applicable income Tax purposes, except as otherwise provided by the applicable Law.

Section 2.4Dissenting Shares.

2.4.1Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Stock that, as of the First Merger Effective Time, constitute “dissenting shares” within the meaning of Section 262 of the DGCL (any such shares being referred to as “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such Stockholder fails to perfect or otherwise loses such Stockholder’s appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to such shares), will not be converted into or represent the right to receive cash in accordance with Section 2.3.5, but will be converted into the right to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting Shares pursuant to the DGCL (and at the First Merger Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and such Stockholder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the rights set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL); provided, however, that if a Stockholder holding Dissenting Shares (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) withdraws, has failed to perfect or otherwise loses such Stockholder’s demand for such payment and appraisal or becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal then, as of the later of the First Merger Effective Time or the date on which such Dissenting Stockholder withdraws such demand or otherwise becomes ineligible for such payment and appraisal, such Stockholder’s Dissenting Shares will cease to be Dissenting Shares (and the right of such Stockholder to be paid the fair value of such Stockholder’s Dissenting Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL will cease) and will be converted into the right to receive a payment determined in accordance with and subject to the provisions of Section 2.3.5 upon delivery of a duly completed and executed Letter of Transmittal in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6.1.

Parent shall have the right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any exercise of such appraisal rights under the DGCL.

Section 2.5Distribution of Closing Payments.

Section 2.6Exchange Procedures; Certain Agreements.

2.6.1Exchange Procedures.

(a)Letter of Transmittal.

(i)Promptly after the date hereof, the Company shall cause the Paying Agent to deliver to each Stockholder (including any holder of Company Restricted Stock) the Required Equity Documentation. From and after the First Merger Effective Time, (A) each Stockholder holding outstanding Company Stock immediately prior to the First Merger Effective Time, and (B) each Stockholder holding Company Stock who demanded appraisal in connection with the Mergers but waives, withdraws or loses such appraisal rights or if appraisal rights are

otherwise determined to be unavailable, will be entitled to receive, upon delivery of a properly completed and executed Required Equity Documentation to the Paying Agent, together with such other documents required pursuant to the instructions set forth in such Required Equity Documentation (1) the applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration to which such Stockholder is entitled (paid as provided in Section 2.3 above), and (2) the applicable portion of the Further Distributions (if any) to which such Stockholder is entitled hereunder. No Stockholder shall be entitled to receive any Parent Shares (when, as and if issuable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) under this Agreement unless such Stockholder has delivered to the Paying Agent the Required Equity Documentation, fully executed and completed by such Stockholder, and such Required Equity Documentation confirms the Stockholder’s status as an Accredited Investor. As promptly as practicable following the proper execution and delivery by a Stockholder of the Required Equity Documentation to the Paying Agent (but in no event prior to the First Merger Effective Time), which shall confirm such Stockholder’s status as an Accredited Investor, Parent shall cause to be issued to such Stockholder, such Stockholder’s allocable portion of the Equity Consideration in accordance with the Spreadsheet, and Parent shall cause Parent’s transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the “Transfer Agent”), to reflect such issuance on the books and records of the Transfer Agent.

(ii)Subject to Section 2.6.1(b), Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to, following the First Merger Effective Time and no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of Required Equity Documentation duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, pay such Stockholder’s applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration that is Cash Consideration; provided, that no Stockholder shall be entitled to receive such Stockholder’s applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration that is Cash Consideration prior to the third (3rd) Business Day following the Closing Date (irrespective when such Stockholder’s Required Equity Documentation is duly delivered). If payment is to be made to a Person other than the Person who is listed as the record holder of the shares of Company Stock, it shall be a condition of payment that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Company Stock. No interest shall be paid or accrued after the First Merger Effective Time on any amount payable upon due delivery of the duly executed and completed Required Equity Documentation.

(iii)The Parent Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement are intended to be issued pursuant to one or more exemptions from registration under the Securities Act, including those under Section 4(a)(2) or Regulation D of the Securities Act, and the exemption from qualification under applicable state securities Law. The Parent Shares issued or issuable to Stockholders as Closing Merger Consideration hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Stock formerly held by such Stockholder. From and after the First Merger Effective Time, the holders and former holders of such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to any such shares represented thereby, except as otherwise expressly provided herein or provided under applicable Law.

(b)Restricted Stock Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.6.1(a)(ii), with respect to any Stockholder for whom the Surviving Company, Parent, or relevant Group Company otherwise maintains payroll withholding obligations, Section 2.6.1(a)(ii) shall not apply to the Restricted Stock held thereby. In lieu thereof, Parent shall, following the First Merger Effective Time and no later than the next regular payroll date of the Surviving Company, Parent, or relevant Group Company that has payroll withholding obligations for such Stockholder occurring at least five (5) Business Days after the Paying Agent’s receipt of the Required Equity Documentation, duly executed and completed in accordance with the instructions thereto, cause the Surviving Company, Parent, or relevant Group Company to deliver through its payroll system such Stockholder’s applicable portion of

the Closing Merger Consideration that is Cash Consideration to such Stockholder (subject to any adjustments specified herein and subject to any applicable Tax withholding); provided, that no Stockholder holding shares of Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive such Stockholder’s applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration in respect of such Restricted Stock that is Cash Consideration prior to the third (3rd) Business Day following the Closing Date (irrespective when such Stockholder’s Required Equity Documentation is duly delivered). No interest shall be paid or accrued after the First Merger Effective Time on any amount payable upon due delivery of the duly executed and completed Required Equity Documentation.

(c)Warrant Payment.

(i)Promptly after the date hereof, Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to deliver to each Warrantholder the Required Equity Documentation. From and after the First Merger Effective Time, each Warrantholder will be entitled to receive, upon delivery of a properly completed and executed Required Equity Documentation to Parent or the Paying Agent (together with such other documents required pursuant to the Required Equity Documentation), (A) the applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration to which such Warrantholder is entitled (paid as provided in Section 2.3 above), and (B) the applicable portion of the Further Distributions (if any) to which such Warrantholder is entitled hereunder.

The Group Companies are not in possession of any Inventory not owned by the Group Companies, including goods already sold. The value at which Inventory is carried on the Interim Financials reflects the customary Inventory valuation of the Company (which fairly reflects the value of obsolete or excess Inventory) for stating Inventory in accordance with IFRS and there has been no change to the method of such Inventory in the previous five (5) years. Inventory on hand that was purchased after the Balance Sheet Date was purchased in the Ordinary Course of Business at a cost not exceeding historical prices prevailing at the time of purchase.

The Company shall promptly advise Parent in writing if at any time prior to the First Merger Effective Time the Company obtains knowledge of any facts that might make it necessary or appropriate to amend or supplement the Information Statement in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading and, if so, the Company shall promptly correct any information with respect to it or provided by it for use in the Information Statement if and to the extent, in the absence of such a correction, the Information Statement would contain a misstatement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and the Company shall disseminate such correction to the appropriate Stockholders in an amendment or supplement. The Company will provide copies of drafts of the Information Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto to Parent and will mail the Information Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto to Stockholders only after Parent and its legal counsel shall have approved and agreed to the content of the disclosure of the Information Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto, which approval and agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

5.2.2Parachute Payments. To the extent necessary to avoid the application of Sections 280G and/or 4999 of the Code, no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall (a) solicit from each Person who is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code) and who receives or has a right or potential right to any payment and/or benefits in connection with the Transactions that would reasonably be expected to constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code and the applicable rulings and final regulations thereunder (“Parachute Payments”) a written agreement waiving such Person’s right to receive some or all of such Parachute Payments such that all remaining payments or benefits applicable to such Person shall not be deemed to be an “excess parachute payment” that would not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code (each, a “Waiver” and collectively, the “Waivers”) and (b) solicit, or cause to be solicited, the approval by such number of stockholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code so as to render the parachute payment provisions of Section 280G of the Code inapplicable to the Parachute Payments to the extent such Waivers have been obtained, with such stockholder vote to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “280G Approval”). The form of Waiver, solicitation of approval, disclosure materials and analysis with respect to the Parachute Payments shall be provided to Parent for its reasonable review and comment at least five (5) Business Days before the Waivers and approval are sought, and the Company shall incorporate any reasonable comments thereto provided within such five (5) Business Days. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall provide, or cause to be provided, to Parent properly completed and executed Waivers and stockholder approval documents to the extent obtained, and, if the 280G Approval is not obtained with respect to any such payments or benefits, the Company shall not pay, provide, or permit to be paid or provided, any such waived payments or benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company be deemed in breach of this Section 5.2.2 by reason of (1) the refusal of any disqualified individual to sign a Waiver as contemplated herein and (2) any arrangement or agreement entered into by, or at the direction of, Parent or any of its Affiliates that is not disclosed to the Company at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Company’s solicitation of the Waivers

(b)Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the Mergers under any Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority or any other Person, including seeking to have any stay, injunction, or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Authority vacated or reversed. Neither Party shall settle or compromise (or offer to settle or compromise) any claim, suit or cause of action brought by a Governmental Authority relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, or negotiate or propose the timing of the Closing Date with any Governmental Authority, in each case, without the other Party’s prior written consent.

(c)Parent shall, after reasonable consultation with the Company, have the right to devise, control and direct the strategy and timing for, and make all decisions relating to (and shall take the lead in all meetings and communications with any Governmental Authority relating to), any required submissions, responses to information requests and filings to any Governmental Authority or other Person and obtaining any consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or other Person contemplated by this Section 5.3, including resolving any Action related to any such consent or approval and all matters relating to any such Action.

5.3.2Regulatory Notifications.

(a)The Company and the Buyer Parties will, as promptly as practicable, file, or cause to be filed (including by their respective “Person” as the term is defined in 16 CFR § 801.1(a)(1)), with the Antitrust Agencies and the UK ISU, any filings, Notification and Report Form for Certain Mergers and Acquisitions required pursuant to the HSR Act and the NSIA for the Transactions. Each of the Company and the Buyer Parties will, subject to applicable limitations for attorney-client privilege, advice from outside counsel regarding restrictions on sharing of competitively sensitive information under the Antitrust Laws and the restrictions in the applicable regulations under the HSR Act regarding the degree to which the Parties may cooperate in certain responses, and any information which has been identified as confidential by a Governmental Authority, furnish to each other’s counsel such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with its preparation of any filing or submission that is necessary under (i) the HSR Act and (ii) the NSIA, and will provide any supplemental information requested by any Governmental Authority as promptly as reasonably practicable, including compliance with a Request for Additional Information and Documentary Material (a “Second Request”). The Company and the Buyer Parties will use all reasonable best efforts to comply as promptly as reasonably practicable with any requests, including a Second Request, made for any additional information in connection with such filings. The Buyer Parties will be responsible for all filing fees payable in connection with such filings.

(b)Subject to the immediately following sentences, the Company and the Buyer Parties will use their reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain HSR Clearance and NSIA Clearance for the consummation of the Transactions and will keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or requests for additional information from, any Governmental Authority and will comply promptly with any such inquiry or request. The Buyer Parties will take all steps reasonably necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any Law that is asserted by any Governmental Authority so as to enable the Parties to expeditiously close the Transactions, provided, however, that this will not include (i) opposing any motion or action for a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction or order against or preventing or delaying the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) entering into a consent decree, consent agreement or other agreement or arrangement containing the Buyer Parties and its Affiliates or the Surviving Company’s agreement to hold separate, license, sell and/or divest assets or businesses of the Buyer Parties or their Affiliates, and (iii) agreeing to any limitations on conduct or actions of the Buyer Parties including the Surviving Company or their Affiliates after the Closing. The Company shall not agree to or undertake any of the foregoing under Section 5.3.2(b)(ii) or (iii) without the prior consent of the Buyer Parties.

(c)Subject to the restrictions in the applicable regulations under the HSR Act regarding the degree to which the filing parties may cooperate on certain responses, the Parties commit to instruct their respective counsel to cooperate with each other and use reasonable best efforts to facilitate and expedite the identification and proposed resolution of any issues arising under the HSR Act or the NSIA at the earliest practicable dates. Such reasonable best efforts and cooperation include counsel’s undertaking (i) to keep each other appropriately informed of material communications from and to personnel of the reviewing Governmental Authorities, and (ii) to confer with each other regarding appropriate contacts with and response to personnel of such Governmental Authorities and the content of any such contacts or

presentations. Neither the Company nor the Buyer Parties will participate in any meeting or discussion with any Governmental Authority with respect to any such filings, applications, investigation or other inquiry without giving the other party prior notice of the meeting or discussion and, to the extent permitted by the relevant Governmental Authority, the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting or discussion (which, at the request of either Parent or the Company, will be limited to outside antitrust counsel only). The Company will have the right to review (subject to appropriate redactions for competitively sensitive information, confidentiality and attorney-client privilege concerns) the content of any presentations, white papers or other written materials to be submitted to any Governmental Authority in advance of any such submission, and the Buyer Parties shall consider in good faith the Company’s views. Notwithstanding the above, Buyer Parties shall direct and control all aspects of the strategy and process relating to the efforts to obtain the HSR Clearance and the NSIA Clearance, including any material communications with the ISU or other Governmental Authority subject to giving the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review in advance, and considering in good faith their views in connection with, any proposed substantive written or, if practicable, oral communication to the ISU or other Governmental Authority.

(d)Except as specifically required by this Agreement, the Company and the Buyer Parties will not (i) agree to extend any waiting period under the HSR Act without the prior written consent, including via email, of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (iii) take any action, or refrain from taking any action, the effect of which could reasonably be expected to materially delay or impede the ability of the Parties to consummate the Transactions or (iv) enter into a definitive agreement to acquire any business competitive with the business of the Group Companies where such agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby would materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an Order prohibiting or restraining the consummation of the Transaction.

(e)The Parties shall file the FCC Applications (which shall also seek FCC approval of the Reorganization) seeking the FCC Consent within ten (10) Business Days after the date of this Agreement. The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in the diligent submission of any additional information requested by the FCC with respect to the FCC Applications and will take all steps reasonably necessary to expeditiously obtain the FCC Consent without any Burdensome Conditions and expeditiously close the Transactions. Subject to applicable Law, the Parties will consult and reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with any analyses, applications, appearances, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, and proposals made or submitted to any Governmental Authority regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by or on behalf of any Party. In addition, the Parties shall provide the other Party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any materials, submissions or filings (including the FCC Applications and any additional information or responses to inquiries from FCC staff) proposed to be submitted to the FCC in connection with the Transactions.

5.3.3Consents.

(a)The Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) promptly give any notice required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to such third parties as are set forth on Schedule 5.3.3(a)(i) (in connection with such Contracts or other arrangements between the Group Companies and such third parties as are described thereon) and (ii) obtain as promptly as practicable any consents, waivers or other approvals as are required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement from such third parties as are set forth on Schedule

Parent shall reasonably cooperate with and assist the Company in giving such notices and obtaining such consents, waivers or other approvals.

(b)Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its commercially efforts to obtain and enter into, as applicable, the consents, documents and instruments, each in a form reasonably satisfactory to Parent, set forth on Schedule 5.3.3(b); provided, that no Party shall have any obligation to give any guarantee or other consideration of any nature in connection with any such consents, documents or instruments, or consent to any change in the terms of any Contract or other arrangement.

Section 5.4Public Announcements. Except to the extent required by applicable Law, neither Parent nor Merger Sub One nor Merger Sub Two, on the one hand, nor any of the Group Companies, on the other hand, shall, directly or indirectly, issue any press release or public announcement of any kind concerning the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent (in the event of a Group Company) or the Company (in the event of Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two) which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event any such public announcement, release or disclosure is required by applicable Law, Parent and the Company shall consult one another prior to the making thereof and use their reasonable best efforts to agree upon a mutually satisfactory text. Each of Parent and the Company agrees that the terms of this Agreement shall not be disclosed or otherwise made available to the public and that copies of this Agreement shall not be publicly filed or otherwise made available to the public, except where such disclosure, availability or filing is required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with any applicable national or regional securities exchange or provided, however, that Parent may, in its sole discretion, determine that this Agreement is required to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. In the event that such disclosure, availability or filing is required or so determined by Parent, each of Parent and the Company (as applicable) shall be entitled to omit or redact the disclosure schedules, annexes, or exhibits to this Agreement to the extent permitted by applicable Law or the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The execution of this Agreement shall constitute written consent by the Company pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement to all actions by Parent and its Affiliates expressly contemplated by or otherwise permitted under this Agreement. The Confidentiality Agreement is hereby amended to include in the definition of “Interested Party Entities” contained therein all of Parent’s Affiliates and each of its and their respective Representatives and all existing or prospective equity investors, co-investors and debt financing sources, including their respective Representatives.

Section 5.5Access to Information.

5.5.1Parent Access. From the date hereof until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Group Companies shall, subject in all respects to the terms of, and the restrictions contained in, the Confidentiality Agreement and at the sole expense of the Buyer Parties: (a) afford to the Representatives of Parent, reasonable access during normal business hours to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Company upon reasonable advance notice and under reasonable circumstances; (b) furnish Parent and its Representatives with copies of all such contracts, books and records and other existing documents and data as Parent and/or its Representatives may reasonably request; and (c) furnish all other information reasonably requested by Parent or its Representatives; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.5.1 or otherwise shall require the Company to provide access to, or to disclose any information to, Parent or its Representatives if such access or disclosure (i) would cause material competitive harm to the Group Companies if

the Transactions are not consummated or would violate Antitrust Laws restricting the sharing of competitively sensitive information or (ii) would be in violation of applicable Laws or the provisions of any agreement to which any Group Company is a party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of the Company (email being sufficient), which may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Parent shall (x) not contact any employee of any Group Company (excluding executive officers), director, independent contractor, distributor, supplier to, or customers of the Company, and (y) have no right to perform materially invasive or subsurface investigations of the properties or facilities of any Group Company; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction in clause (x) shall not apply to (i) any independent contractor, distributor, supplier or customer with whom Parent or any of its Affiliates has a pre-existing business relationship to the extent such contact does not relate to the Transactions or (ii) any contact with any such Person that does not relate to the Transactions or the business of the Company.

5.5.2Securityholders Representative and Securityholders Access. For a period of five years after the Closing, Parent and the Surviving Company shall afford the Securityholders Representative, the Securityholders and their respective Representatives reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the books and records of the Surviving Company that were in existence as of the Closing Date (and shall permit such Persons to examine and copy such books and records to the extent reasonably requested by such party) and shall cause their Representatives to furnish all information of the Surviving Company that was in existence as of the Closing Date reasonably requested by the Securityholders Representative, the Securityholders or their respective Representatives in connection with financial reporting and Tax matters (including financial and Tax audits or contests), third party litigation or any other reasonable business purpose, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 5.5.2 shall require Parent or the Surviving Company or its Subsidiaries to furnish to the Securityholders Representative, the Securityholders or their respective Representatives any materials in the event of a claim under Section 8.2.2 or otherwise prepared by their financial or legal advisors which are subject to an attorney/client privilege or an attorney work product privilege or which may not be disclosed pursuant to applicable Law. For a period of seven years following the Closing, or such longer period as may be required by applicable Law or necessitated by applicable statutes of limitations, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries to, maintain all such books and in the jurisdiction in which such books and records were located prior to the Closing Date and shall not destroy or dispose of any such books and records.

Section 5.6Officers and Directors Insurance.

5.6.1Prior to the Closing, the Group Companies shall obtain, effective as of the Closing Date, the non-cancellable extension of the employment practices, fiduciary liability and directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Group Companies’ existing employment practices and directors’ and officers’ insurance policies (with fiduciary liability coverage to be obtained by the Group Companies prior to Closing and included in such extension if available) (collectively, the “D&O Insurance”) covering Persons who are currently (and as of the First Merger Effective Time) or were officers and directors of, or in a comparable role with, the Company (the “Indemnified D&Os”), for a claims reporting or discovery period of not less than six years from and after the Closing with respect to any claim related to any period prior to the Closing from any insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current insurance carrier with respect to D&O Insurance with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are substantially comparable with, in all material respects, or more favorable to the insureds than the coverage provided under the Company’s existing policies, including with respect to the employment practices liability coverage and fiduciary liability coverage, a minimum limit for each of GBP 1,000,000 (the “D&O Tail Policy”). Parent will not, and will cause the Surviving Company to not, cancel or change the D&O Tail Policy in any respect. All premiums, costs and expenses to obtain and maintain the D&O Insurance shall be borne by Parent.

5.6.2From and after the First Merger Effective Time until the sixth anniversary thereof, Parent will cause the Surviving Company to indemnify and hold harmless and advance expenses to the Indemnified D&Os in respect of any acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the First Merger Effective Time, subject to applicable Law, to the fullest extent permitted by Laws of the State of Delaware or any other applicable Law and the Company Charter or similar Organizational Documents of the other Group Companies as in effect on the date hereof; provided that the obligation to advance expenses shall be subject to the person to whom expenses are advanced providing an undertaking to repay such advances to the extent required by applicable Law, the applicable Organizational Documents as in effect on the date hereof or if it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such person is not entitled to indemnification thereunder or hereunder.

5.6.3Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Indemnified D&O shall be entitled to make any claim for indemnification, advancement of expenses, exculpation or contribution from any Buyer Party or, after the Closing, the Surviving Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the applicable Organizational Documents or any indemnification agreement, arrangement or other understanding, arising out of or related to any dispute between any Buyer Party, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and an Indemnified D&O (acting in any capacity), on the other hand, with respect to any matter arising out of or related to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement.

5.6.4In the event that Parent or any of its successors or assigns (a) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, or (b) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or Persons, then, and in each such case, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such successors and assigns of Parent to assume all of the obligations of Parent set forth in this Section 5.6.

Section 5.7Employee Matters.

5.7.1For a period of one year following the Closing, except (i) as required by applicable Law or any applicable employment offer or agreement, (ii) in the case of performance-related issues, (iii) as otherwise agreed with the applicable employee or (iv) as otherwise determined by Company management in its sound judgment and in the best interest of the Company, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to, provide to each Continuing Employee: (a) a base salary or hourly wage rate (including overtime and premium pay) that is the same as was in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing; (b) target bonus, commission opportunities, and incentive pay opportunities (excluding any equity compensation) that are the same as were in effect for such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing (including with respect to performance and other metrics), of any applicable plan, policy or arrangement of the Group Companies; and (c) employee benefit plans and programs that are, in respect of this clause (c), no less favorable in the aggregate than those provided to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing, which benefits shall be provided under the Company Benefit Plans or under Parent’s (or an affiliate of Parent’s) employee benefit plans that are available to Parent’s similarly situated employees, within Parent’s sole discretion.

5.7.2Following the Closing, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) give the Continuing Employees full credit for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit entitlement (other than benefit accrual under a defined benefit pension plan) under any employee benefit plans or arrangements maintained by Parent or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Parent Plans”) for such Continuing Employees’ service with the Company (or any predecessor entity) to the same extent recognized by the Company immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that no such service shall be recognized to the extent such recognition would result in the duplication of benefits; (b) waive all limitations as

to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods relating to continuous service with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Continuing Employees under any Parent Plan that is a welfare benefit plan that such employees may be eligible to participate in after the Closing Date; and (c) provide credit under any such welfare plan for any co-payments, deductibles and out-of-pocket expenditures for the remainder of the coverage period during which any transfer of coverage occurs.

5.7.3Nothing contained in this Section 5.7: (a) shall alter or limit the ability of Parent, the Company, the Surviving Company, or any of their respective Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them; or (b) is intended to confer upon any current or former employee or any other Person any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment.

Section 5.8Exclusive Dealing. From and after the date hereof through the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article VII, no Group Company nor any of its, agents, officers, directors, or Representatives shall, directly or indirectly, take any action to encourage, initiate, continue or engage in discussions or negotiations with, enter into any agreement with or provide any information to, any Person (other than Parent, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives) concerning any Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated and shall cause its Affiliates and Representatives to immediately cease and cause to be terminated, all existing discussions or negotiations with any Persons conducted heretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal (other than the Buyer Parties). The Company shall promptly (and in any event within one Business Day after receipt thereof by the Company or any of its Affiliates or Representatives) advise Parent in writing of any Acquisition Proposal, any request for information with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, or any inquiry with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of such request, Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, and the identity of the Person making the same. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the rights and remedies for noncompliance with this Section 5.8 shall include having such provision specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach shall cause irreparable harm to Parent and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to Parent.

Section 5.9R&W Insurance Policy. The R&W Insurance Policy has been conditionally bound as of the date hereof, and is attached hereto as Exhibit E, and provides that the R&W Insurer shall not have the right to, and will not, pursue any subrogation rights or contribution rights or any other claims against the Securityholders Representative or any of the Securityholders in connection with any claim made hereunder in connection with the Transactions other than in the case of claims of, or causes of actions arising from, Fraud. Prior to the Closing, the Buyer Parties shall take commercially reasonable steps within their control to ensure that the coverage under the R&W Insurance Policy remains in full force and effect as of the Closing Date. Neither the Buyer Parties nor any of their respective Affiliates (including the Surviving Company) shall amend, modify or cancel any subrogation provisions of the R&W Insurance Policy if such amendment would materially adversely affect the rights of the Securityholders Representative or the Securityholders thereunder without the prior written consent of the Company (if before the Closing) or the of the Securityholders Representative (if after the Closing). Termination of or amendment to the R&W Insurance Policy will not impact any of the limitations on indemnification set forth in this Agreement. The R&W Insurance Policy Costs will be borne by the Buyer Parties.

Section 5.10Tax Matters.

5.10.1FIRPTA. At the Closing, the Company shall deliver a certificate (the “FIRPTA Certificate”) to Parent, together with the required notice to the IRS, dated as of the

Closing Date, executed on behalf of the Company conforming to the requirements of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.897-2(h) and 1.1445-2(c)(3), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent.

5.10.2Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Parent shall timely prepare or cause to be timely prepared all Tax Returns for the Group Companies for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date and for any Straddle Period, in each case, that are first due after the Closing (each a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”), and all such Pre-Closing Tax Returns shall be prepared consistent with Section 5.10.9(iii) and the past practices and positions of the Group Companies, unless such past practices are (i) not supportable at a “more likely than not” or higher level of comfort for U.S. tax purposes or (ii) correct or complete to the best of the relevant person’s knowledge and belief for U.K. tax purposes, as applicable. Until the finalization of the Final Closing Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2.2(d), no later than thirty (30) days prior to filing of any Pre-Closing Tax Return that is an Income Tax Return (and as soon as commercially practicable prior to filing any non-Income Tax Return), Parent shall submit a draft of any Pre-Closing Tax Return to the Securityholders Representative for its review and comment. Parent shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments received from the Securityholders Representative with respect to such Pre-Closing Tax Returns within twenty (20) days after Parent’s provision of a given Pre-Closing Tax Return to the Securityholders Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.10.2 shall become inoperative and of no force after the Final Closing Merger Consideration has been determined pursuant to Section 2.2.2(d).

5.10.3Post-Closing Actions. Until the finalization of the Final Closing Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.2.2(d), except as required by applicable Law or as contemplated by this Agreement, Parent and its Affiliates (including on or after the Closing Date, the Group Companies) shall not (i) file (except as set forth in Section 5.10.2) or amend a Tax Return of any Group Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (ii) extend or waive the applicable statute of limitations with respect to a Tax of any Group Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iii) file any ruling or request with any Taxing Authority that relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of any Group Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (iv) change any current practice or procedure or accounting method of any Group Company for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or (v) make any Tax election with respect to any Group Company that relates to, or is retroactive to, a Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Securityholders Representative (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Parent and its Affiliates (including on or after the Closing Date, the Group Companies) shall not make an election under Section 336 or 338 or a similar provision of non-U.S., state or local law with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

5.10.4Agreed Tax Position. The Parties shall, to the extent permitted or required under applicable Law, treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable period of the Company for all Tax purposes, including pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502--76, and Parent shall cause the Company to join Parent’s federal income tax consolidated group effective on the day after the First Merger Effective Time.

5.10.5Certification. Parent and the Participating Securityholders agree, upon request from the other party, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Taxing Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including, but not limited to, with respect to the Transactions (including the Mergers)).

5.10.6Tax Cooperation. Each of the Parties and their respective Affiliates shall reasonably cooperate with each other, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Parties, in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns or any Action with respect to Taxes of the Company and its Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period. Such cooperation shall include the retention and, upon the other Party’s reasonable request, the provision of such records and information that are relevant to any such Tax Return or Action and the making of employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide such additional information and explanation of any materials provided hereunder.

5.10.7Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Transfer Taxes incurred in connection with the Transactions shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Parent and fifty percent (50%) by the Participating Securityholders. The Person(s) required to do so by applicable Law shall timely prepare and file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, with Parent, the Surviving Company and the applicable Participating Securityholders cooperating reasonably with respect to any such filing, with all the applicable costs and expenses being split by the parties in the same proportion as provided in the preceding sentence.

5.10.8Termination of Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax Sharing Agreements in which any Group Company is a party shall be terminated as of the Closing Date, and, after the Closing Date, none of the Group Companies shall be bound thereby or have any liability thereunder.

5.10.9Straddle Period. In the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be:

(i)in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), 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 portion of the relevant Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period; and

5.10.11Tax Treatment.

100

(a)For United States federal income Tax purposes, the Parties intend that (i) the First Merger and Second Merger, taken together, constitute a single, integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code by virtue of Section 368(a)(2)(D), and (ii) this Agreement meets the requirements of measuring continuity of interest pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e)(2)(i) (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). To the extent the Intended Tax Treatment is supportable at a “more likely than not” or higher level of confidence as determined by Parent, then the Parties (and their Affiliates) shall not take any tax reporting position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment for U.S. federal, state and other relevant Tax purposes, unless otherwise required pursuant to a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The Parties acknowledge and agree that for purposes of determining the value of Parent Shares to be received by the Securityholders pursuant to the Mergers for purposes of measuring continuity of interest under Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e)(2)(i) and Revenue Procedure 2018-12 (“Rev. Proc. 2018-12”), (i) the “Safe Harbor Valuation Method” will be the Average of the Daily Closing Prices as described in Section 4.01(3) of Rev. Proc. 2018-12, (ii) the “Measuring Period” (within the meaning of Section 4.01 of Rev. Proc. 2018-12) will be each of the five (5) consecutive trading days ending on and including the last trading day immediately prior to the date hereof, (iii) the “specified exchange” (within the meaning of Section 3.01(4) of Rev. Proc. 2018-12) will be NYSE and (iv) the “authoritative reporting source” (within the meaning of Section 3.01(4) of Rev. Proc. 2018-12) will be Bloomberg L.P.

(b)Each of Parent, Merger Sub One, Merger Sub Two, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Mergers, taken together, to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment and shall not take (or knowingly fail to take) any action that would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede such qualification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the obligations of Parent under this Section 5.10.11(b) shall not extend to, and Parent shall have no liability (including under Section 8.2.2 hereof) in respect of, any action or inaction insofar as it may affect the Intended Tax Treatment by virtue of any failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to satisfy the “continuity of interest” requirement set forth under Section 1.368-1(e) of the Treasury Regulations or any corresponding or similar provisions of applicable Tax.

(c)The Parties hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code and Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a), to which Parent, Merger Sub One, Merger Sub Two and the Company are parties under Section 368(b) of the Code with respect to each of the Mergers.

5.10.12Research and Development Credits.

(a)If, within the Tax Credit Payment Period, ASNL obtains a Tax Saving, then an amount equal to (i) the amount of such Tax Saving so obtained, less (ii) any out-of-pocket costs, Taxes and other expenses incurred by Parent or any of its Affiliates (including the Group Companies) that are attributable to the claiming of the relevant R&D expenditure credit or the obtaining of the Tax Saving and any unpaid Taxes of the Group Companies that are attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period that were not specifically taken into account in the calculation of the Closing Merger Consideration, shall be paid by or on behalf of Parent to the Paying Agent or Surviving Company (for further distribution to the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares) within 10 Business Days of the Tax Saving having been obtained, and for the purposes of Section 9.2.1(j) the date of determination in respect of such payment shall be the date on which payment to the Paying Agent is made by or on behalf of Parent.

(b)If HMRC subsequently successfully challenges any Tax Saving (in whole or in part), the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares shall repay to Parent (or its designee) within 10 Business Days of written demand from

101

Parent an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of the Tax Saving that has been so denied (including, for these purposes, any repayment by ASNL (in whole or in part) of any amount received pursuant to “Step 7” as described in section 1042I of the UK Corporation Tax Act 2009 or any refund of Tax or any amount received under section 1054 of the UK Corporation Tax Act 2009), plus any interest and penalties in respect thereof, and (ii) the amount paid to the Participating Securityholders in respect of such Tax Saving, and for the purposes of Section 9.2.1(j), the date of determination in respect of such repayment by a Participating Securityholder shall be the date on which the Securityholder repays Parent (or its designee).

(c)Any payments pursuant to this Section 5.10.12 are intended to be treated as an adjustment to the Closing Merger Consideration for U.S. federal (and applicable state and local) Income Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 5.11will require any Party to waive any condition to such Party’s obligation to consummate the Transactions set forth in Article VI.

Section 5.12Credit Agreement Cooperation. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall, and shall cause each of the Group Companies to, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide reasonable cooperation, upon the reasonable request of the Buyer Parties, in connection with any existing debt financing arrangements of the Buyer Parties or their Affiliates (including any credit agreements, indentures or other debt instruments to which any Buyer Party or any of its Affiliates is a party as of the date of this Agreement); provided, however, that (i) such reasonable cooperation shall not unreasonably disrupt the operations of any of the Group Companies, (ii) no Group Company shall be required to incur any out-of-pocket costs or expenses in connection therewith, and (iii) such reasonable cooperation shall not require the disclosure of competitively sensitive or legally privileged information to a third party.

Section 5.13Termination of Affiliate Transactions. Effective immediately prior to the Closing, and except for the Contracts and arrangements set forth on Section 5.13 of the Disclosure Schedules, the Company shall cause (a) the Investor Rights’ Agreement, the Voting Agreement, and the Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement and (b) all Contracts between any Group Company, on the one hand, and any Related Party, on the other hand set forth or required to be set forth on Section 3.21 of the Disclosure Schedules, to be terminated in their entirety without any further liability or obligation on the part of any Group Company or any of its Affiliates. Except as otherwise expressly agreed to by Parent in writing, from the date hereof until the Closing (or earlier termination of this Agreement), the Securityholders and the other Related Party shall not, directly or indirectly, enter or agree to enter into any Contract that if entered prior to the date hereof would have required to be listed on Section 3.21 of the Disclosure Schedules.

“Lockup Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Participating Securityholder shall at all times be permitted to transfer Parent Shares issued as Equity Consideration, in each case conditioned upon the transferring Participating Securityholder’s delivery to Parent and the Paying Agent of such transfer documentation as may be reasonably requested by Parent or the Paying Agent, (i) to its Affiliates or any partner, member or equityholder of such Stockholder or any of their respective Affiliates; (ii) in the case of an individual, (x) by gift to a member of such individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual’s immediate family, an Affiliate of such individual or to a charitable organization; (y) by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon the death of such individual; or (z) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (iii) to any investment fund or other entity controlling, controlled by, managing or managed by or under common control with the Stockholder or its Affiliates or (iv) pursuant to any liquidation, merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of Parent’s stockholders having the right to exchange their Parent Shares for cash, securities or other property after the date hereof.

103

Section 5.15Dissolution of Isotropic Systems. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Isotropic Systems to be dissolved and wound up in accordance with applicable Law, including filing necessary dissolution documents, which documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to Parent, with the applicable Governmental Authorities in the State of Maryland and the State of Ohio, as applicable, and taking all other actions commercially reasonable and necessary to effectuate such dissolution.

The Participating Securityholders shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Securityholders Representative against any reasonable, documented, and out-of-pocket losses, liabilities and expenses (“Representative Losses”) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and any related agreements, in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event that any such Representative Loss is finally adjudicated to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Securityholders Representative, the Securityholders Representative will reimburse the Participating Securityholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss to the extent attributable to such gross negligence or willful misconduct. Representative Losses may be recovered by the Securityholders Representative from (i) the funds in the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve and (ii) any other funds that become payable to the Participating Securityholders under this Agreement at such time as such amounts would otherwise be distributable to the Participating Securityholders; provided, that while the Securityholders Representative may be paid from the aforementioned sources of funds, this does not relieve the Participating Securityholders from their obligation to promptly pay such Representative Losses as they are suffered or incurred. The Securityholders Representative may, upon receipt of a claim

109

notice or similar that is reasonably likely to give rise to a Representative Loss (as determined in good faith by the Securityholders Representative), withhold from any distribution of the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve an amount as may be reasonably expected to cover such Representative Loss until such matter is resolved. In no event will the Securityholders Representative be required to advance its own funds on behalf of the Participating Securityholders or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any restrictions or limitations on liability or indemnification obligations of, or provisions limiting the recourse against non-parties otherwise applicable to, the Participating Securityholders set forth elsewhere in this Agreement are not intended to be applicable to the indemnities provided to the Securityholders Representative hereunder. The foregoing indemnities will survive the Closing, the resignation or removal of the Securityholders Representative or the termination of this Agreement.

8.1.6Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve. The Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve will be used for any expenses incurred by the Securityholders Representative. The Participating Securityholders will not receive any interest or earnings on the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve and irrevocably transfer and assign to the Securityholders Representative any ownership right that they may otherwise have had in any such interest or earnings. The Securityholders Representative will hold these funds separate from its corporate funds and will not voluntarily make these funds available to its creditors in the event of bankruptcy. As soon as practicable following the completion of the Securityholders Representative’s responsibilities, the Securityholders Representative will deliver any remaining balance of the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve to the Paying Agent or the Surviving Company for further distribution to the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Escrow Pro Rata Shares. For tax purposes, the Securityholders Representative Expense Reserve will be treated as having been received and voluntarily set aside by the Participating Securityholders at the time of Closing.

Section 8.2Indemnification.

8.2.1Indemnification by the Participating Securityholders. From and following the First Merger Effective Time, the Participating Securityholders (by virtue of the Written Consent or delivery of the Required Equity Documentation (and, with respect to (i) any holder of Company Options, the execution and delivery of the corresponding Option Termination Agreement, and (iii) any holder of Company Warrants, the execution and delivery of the corresponding Warrant Termination Agreements and the Exercise Documents, as applicable)) shall, severally and not jointly in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share, defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Parties and their Affiliates, and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the foregoing for, any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, interest, awards, judgments, penalties, Taxes (including any Taxes that would have been payable but for a Relief), costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, costs and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) (hereinafter collectively, “Losses”), asserted against, incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties arising out of or resulting from (a) Fraud on the part of the Company, or (b) any of the matters set forth on Schedule 8.2.1. Under no circumstances shall any of the Participating Securityholders, or the Securityholders Representative, claim that this Section 8.2.1 is unenforceable with respect to any Losses that arise out of or result from Item # 16 on Schedule 8.2.1.

8.2.2Indemnification by Parent. From and following the First Merger Effective Time, the Parent shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Participating Securityholders and their Affiliates, and the respective Representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each of the foregoing for, any and all Losses, asserted against, incurred, sustained or suffered by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties arising out of or resulting from (a) Fraud on the part of Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two, (b) the breach of any Parent Fundamental Representation by Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two, or (c) the breach

110

of any covenant or agreement made or to be performed by Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two on or after the Closing contained in this Agreement, provided that the Parent shall not be obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Seller Indemnified Party from or against any Losses arising out of, resulting from or relating to the failure of, or any challenge to, the Intended Tax Treatment, including any disqualification thereof.

8.2.3Procedures.

(a)Any Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand made by any person against the Indemnified Party (a “Third-Party Claim”) shall deliver notice (a “Claim Notice”) in respect thereof to (i) in the case the Person seeking indemnification is a Buyer Indemnified Party, the Securityholders Representative, on behalf of the Participating Securityholders (with respect to such Participating Securityholders, the “Seller Indemnifying Party”), or (ii) in the case the Person seeking indemnification is a Seller Indemnified Party, the Parent (the “Buyer Indemnifying Party”), ((i) or (ii), as applicable, and their respective permitted successors or assigns, each, an “Indemnifying Party”) with reasonable promptness after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third-Party Claim, and shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall only be obligated to deliver a Claim Notice to the Securityholders Representative (on behalf of the Indemnifying Parties) under this Article VIII.

(b)The Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to (i) assume and have sole control over the defense and investigation of the matters set forth on Schedule 8.2.3(b) (the “Buyer Controlled Matters”) with counsel of its own choosing and at the expense of the Seller Indemnifying Party (which expenses shall not be applied against any indemnity limitation in Section 8.2.4), if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Seller Indemnifying Party within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such Claim Notice with respect to any of the Buyer Controlled Matters by the Buyer Indemnified Party and (ii) negotiate a settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of an Order with respect to, such claim, subject to Section 8.2.3(e). If the Buyer Indemnified Party elects to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Buyer Controlled Matters, then the Seller Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) such defense and investigation with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Buyer Indemnified Party at the Seller Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. If the Buyer Indemnified Party does not elect to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Buyer Controlled Matter, then the Seller Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Buyer Controlled Matter as if it were a Seller Controlled Matter.

(c)The Seller Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to (i) assume and have sole control over the defense and investigation of the matters set forth on Schedule 8.2.3(c) (the “Seller Controlled Matters”) with counsel of its own choosing, if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Buyer Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such Claim Notice with respect to any such Seller Controlled Matters by the Buyer Indemnified Party and (ii) negotiate a settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of an Order with respect to, such claim, subject to Section 8.2.3(e). If the Seller Indemnifying Party elects to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Seller Controlled Matters, then the Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in (but not control) such defense and investigation with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Seller Indemnifying Party at the Buyer Indemnified Party’s sole cost and expense. If the Seller Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Seller Controlled Matter, then the Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume control of the defense and investigation of any such Seller Controlled Matter as if it were a Buyer Controlled Matter.

111

(d)With respect to any Third-Party Claim that does not constitute a Buyer Controlled Matter or a Seller Controlled Matter (a “Default Control Matter”), the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to (i) assume and have sole control over the defense and investigation of such Default Control Matter at its sole cost and expense with counsel of its own choosing if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days after the delivery of such Claim Notice with respect to any such Default Control Matter by the Indemnified Party and (ii) negotiate a settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of an Order with respect to, such claim, subject to Section 8.2.3(e); provided, however, that if any of the following conditions are met, then the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume and have sole control over the defense and investigation thereof, and such Default Control Matter shall be a Buyer Controlled Matter:(A) the Third-Party Claim seeks injunctive or other equitable relief, (B) the Third-Party Claim involves a criminal or quasi-criminal Action, (C) the Indemnifying Party fails, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party after at least 10 days’ notice to the Indemnifying Party, to actively and diligently prosecute or pursue the defense of such Third-Party Claim, (D) the Third-Party Claim is brought by a Governmental Authority, (E) the Third-Party Claim involves a significant then-current customer or supplier of the Indemnified Party or (F) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by legal counsel that a conflict of interest exists which, under applicable principles of legal ethics, would prohibit a single legal counsel from representing both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party in such Third-Party Claim, or there may be legal defenses to the Indemnified Party which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party.

(e)Any Third-Party Claim for which Parent has assumed control over the defense and investigation may be settled by Parent in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the settlement of (i) any Third-Party Claim that initially constituted a Seller Controlled Matter or a Default Control Matter without Control Restrictions, shall require the prior written consent of the Securityholders’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) or (ii) any other Third Party Claim shall require the prior written consent of the Securityholders’ Representative (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such settlement: (A) involves a full, unconditional waiver and release of all claims against the Participating Securityholders and their applicable Affiliates, (B) involves only the payment of monetary damages and does not include any non-monetary obligations, (C) does not require any admission of wrongdoing, (D) does not impose a Lien on any of the assets of any of the Participating Securityholders, (E) includes reasonable confidentiality restrictions, (F) would not reasonably be expected to result in reputational harm and (G) does not result (or would reasonably be expected to result) in any restriction or condition that would adversely affect any of the Participating Securityholders or the conduct of any of the Participating Securityholders’ businesses; provided that, for purposes of a proposed settlement with respect to Items # 1 and 16 on Schedule 8.2.1, it shall be deemed unreasonable for the Securityholders’ Representative to withhold, condition or delay consent where the failure to enter into such settlement would be reasonably likely to subject Parent to (x) material restrictions on the business or operations of Parent, (y) material harm to the reputation of Parent, or (z) material Losses not subject to indemnification by the Participating Securityholders pursuant to this Article VIII; provided further, that Parent shall provide the Securityholders’ Representative not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of any settlement (inclusive of a summary of the proposed material terms thereof) with respect to Items # 1 and 16 on Schedule 8.2.1. Any Third-Party Claim for which the Securityholders’ Representative has assumed control over the defense and investigation may be settled by the Securityholders’ Representative without Parent’s consent only if all of the following conditions are met (in which case the Securityholders’ Representative shall provide Parent advance written notice of any such proposed settlement, and shall not finalize any such proposed settlement until Parent has had an opportunity to review and comment on the terms thereof): such settlement (A) involves a full, unconditional waiver and release of all claims against the applicable Buyer Indemnified Parties, the Group Companies and their applicable Affiliates, (B) involves only the payment of monetary damages for which the Seller

112

Indemnifying Party is fully responsible for satisfying (or having satisfied on its behalf) and does not include any non-monetary obligations, (C) does not require any admission of wrongdoing, (D) does not impose a Lien on any of the assets of any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, (E) includes reasonable confidentiality restrictions, (F) would not reasonably be expected to result in reputational harm and (G) does not result (or would reasonably be expected to result) in any restriction or condition that would adversely affect any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or the conduct of any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties’ business. For the avoidance of doubt, any Third-Party Claim in respect of taxes of the Group Companies shall not be subject to this Section 8.2.3(e) except to the extent its involves any of the Buyer Controlled Matters.

(f)An Indemnified Party seeking indemnification in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand hereunder that does not involve a Third-Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party (a “Direct Claim”) shall deliver a Claim Notice in respect thereof to (i) in the case the Person seeking indemnification is a Buyer Indemnified Party, the Securityholders Representative, on behalf of the Participating Securityholders, or (ii) in the case the Person seeking indemnification is a Seller Indemnified Party, the Parent, with reasonable promptness after becoming aware of facts supporting such Direct Claim, and shall provide the Securityholders Representative with such information with respect thereto as such Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party or otherwise than pursuant to this Article VIII. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within 30 days following its receipt of a Claim Notice in respect of a Direct Claim that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party hereunder, such Direct Claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such Claim Notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party agrees that it has an indemnification obligation but asserts that it is obligated to pay a lesser amount than that claimed by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay such lesser amount promptly to the Indemnified Party, without prejudice to or waiver of the Indemnified Party’s claim for the balance of such claim. If the Indemnifying Party responds within such thirty (30) days and rejects such claim in whole or in part, the Indemnified Party will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available under this Agreement or applicable Law.

(g)The indemnification required hereunder for any Losses determined to be due and owing pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by prompt payment by the Indemnifying Party in cash within twenty (20) Business Days after execution of such written agreement or issuance of such final judgment or decree; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any indemnification required to be provided by a Participating Securityholder, if such Participating Securityholder has not paid such amount in full in cash within such twenty (20) Business Day period, the indemnification may, in Parent’s sole discretion, be alternatively satisfied in whole or in part by (y) the Parent’s cancellation, for no consideration, of a number of Parent Shares issued to such Participating Securityholder (including any such Parent Shares that have been transferred by such Participating Securityholder to a third-party as Closing Merger Consideration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, equal to the amount of the Losses divided by the volume weighted average price of a Parent Share on the New York Stock Exchange in the 30 trading days prior to the date of execution of such written agreement or issuance of such final judgment or decree) or (z) offset against any distribution, dividend or other payment owed to such Participating Securityholder (in its capacity as an equityholder of Parent or otherwise) or such Participating Securityholder’s Affiliates.

113

(h)The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to require that any action be made or brought against any other Person before action is brought or claim is made against it hereunder by the Indemnified Party.

8.2.4Limitations on Indemnification.

(a)In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party hereunder, the amount of any indemnified Losses shall be computed net of payments actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under any insurance policy (net of documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such recovery) with respect to such Losses. In the event that (A) an Indemnifying Party makes an indemnification payment hereunder, and (B) in addition to such indemnification payment, the Indemnified Party actually receives insurance proceeds that are directly related to the same claim for which the Indemnifying Party made an indemnification payment, then a portion of the Indemnifying Party’s indemnification payment equal to the insurance amounts actually received (net of documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with such recovery) shall promptly be refunded to such Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain full recovery under all insurance policies covering any indemnifiable Losses.

(b)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary or any right or remedy provided by any Law or otherwise, from and after the Closing, the Group Companies shall not be liable or otherwise responsible to the Securityholders (and the Securityholders are deemed to fully and forever release and discharge the Group Companies) as a co-warrantor or co-obligor, for contribution and otherwise in any manner or based on any legal theory or cause of action on account of, or with respect to, the breach by the Company of this Agreement in connection with the Transactions.

(c)The aggregate liability of (i) the Participating Securityholders with respect to Losses for Actions under Section 8.2.1 shall not exceed the aggregate amount of Closing Merger Consideration actually paid to the Participating Securityholders, and (ii) any Participating Securityholder with respect to Losses for Actions under Section 8.2.1 shall not exceed the aggregate amount of Closing Merger Consideration actually paid to such Participating Securityholder.

(d)The aggregate liability of the Parent with respect to Losses for Actions under Section 8.2.2 shall not exceed the aggregate amount of Closing Merger Consideration actually paid to the Participating Securityholders.

(e)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent coverage is available under the R&W Insurance Policy for any Losses arising out of or resulting from the matters indemnifiable by the Participating Securityholders pursuant to Section 8.2.1(b), the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall seek to recover such Losses from the R&W Policy and shall not be entitled to recover such Losses from the Participating Securityholders pursuant to Section 8.2.1(b) to the extent they are recovered under the R&W Policy.

(f)After giving effect to Section 8.2.4(e) in the event the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2.1(b) that arise out of or result from Item # 16 on Schedule 8.2.1, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall first recover such Losses from the Reorganization Escrow Fund, and only if such Losses exceed the then-available Reorganization Escrow Fund shall the Buyer Indemnified Parties be able to recover such Losses from the Participating Securityholders. To the extent any amounts are to be paid to any Buyer Indemnified Parties from the Reorganization Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 8.2.4(f) to satisfy any claims for indemnifiable Losses hereunder (i) that have been mutually agreed by the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Securityholders Representative or (ii) for which there is a final, binding and non-appealable decision, order, judgment or award, Parent and the

114

Securityholders Representative shall promptly provide to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions to cause the Escrow Agent to release such amounts from the Reorganization Escrow Account to such Buyer Indemnified Parties.

(g)After giving effect to Section 8.2.4(e), in the event the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 8.2.1(b) for any Losses that arise out of or result from Item # 10 on Schedule 8.2.1, the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall first recover such Losses from the Special Escrow Fund, and only if such Losses exceed the then-available Special Escrow Fund shall the Buyer Indemnified Parties be able to recover such Losses from the Participating Securityholders. To the extent any amounts are to be paid to any Buyer Indemnified Parties from the Special Escrow Account pursuant to this Section 8.2.4(g) to satisfy any claims for indemnifiable Losses hereunder (i) that have been mutually agreed by the Buyer Indemnified Parties and the Securityholders Representative or (ii) for which there is a final, binding and non-appealable decision, order, judgment or award, Parent and the Securityholders Representative shall promptly provide to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions to cause the Escrow Agent to release such amounts from the Special Escrow Account to such Buyer Indemnified Parties.

8.2.5No Limitation on Claims for Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Article VIII to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Article VIII shall be deemed to waive, bar, diminish or otherwise limit, in any manner, any right, power, remedy, claim, request, demand or cause of action (whether at law or equity) that any Party, with respect to itself and any of its Affiliates, may have against another Person with respect to any injunction or other equitable remedies (including specific performance).

8.2.6Escrow Release. The entire Reorganization Escrow Fund remaining in the Reorganization Escrow Account on the twelve (12)-month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Release Date”), and the entire Special Escrow Fund then remaining in the Special Escrow Account on the Release Date, in each case, less any reserve for pending claims validly noticed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as of such Release Date (a “Pending Claim Reserve”) shall be paid to the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Escrow Pro Rata Shares. On a claim-by-claim basis, the amount of the Pending Claim Reserve reserved for a claim shall remain in the Reorganization Escrow Account or Special Escrow Account, as applicable, until the resolution of such claim. To the extent any such pending claim (or portion thereof) is finally resolved in favor of any Buyer Indemnified Parties, Parent and the Securityholders Representative shall provide to the Escrow Agent joint written instructions to cause the Escrow Agent to release the amount of the Pending Claim Reserve reserved for such claim (or portion thereof) to such Buyer Indemnified Parties. To the extent any such pending claim (or portion thereof) is finally resolved in favor of the Participating Securityholders, the amount of the Pending Claim Reserve reserved for such claim (or portion thereof) shall be paid to the Participating Securityholders in accordance with their respective Escrow Pro Rata Shares. Any payments to the Participating Securityholders pursuant to this Section 8.2.6 shall be satisfied by release of the applicable amount from the Reorganization Escrow Account or Special Escrow Account (which release shall be made pursuant to joint written instructions to be provided by the Securityholders Representative and Parent), as applicable, by the Escrow Agent to the Surviving Company or the Paying Agent for the benefit of and distribution to the applicable Participating Securityholders in respect of the applicable Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants in the manner described in Section 2.6.1 for payments in respect of such Company Stock, Company Restricted Stock, Company Options and Company Warrants within five Business Days after the Release Date or the date the pending claim (or portion thereof) is finally resolved in favor of the Participating Securityholders, as applicable. The Securityholders Representative and Parent shall promptly deliver joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent instructing the Escrow Agent to make any distributions from the Reorganization Escrow Account or Special Escrow Account required hereby.

Article IXGENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 9.1No Survival; Limitations.

9.1.1None of the representations or warranties of the Company, the Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two contained in this Agreement or in any certificates required to be delivered by the Company at Closing pursuant hereto will survive the Closing; provided, that the Parent Fundamental Representations will survive the Closing until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing; provided, further, that under no circumstances shall the foregoing be deemed to limit or otherwise modify Parent’s rights under the R&W Insurance Policy or under Section 8.2. The covenants and agreements herein that by their terms are expressly required to be performed prior to or at the Closing shall terminate and expire, and shall cease to be of any force or effect, upon the Closing, and all liability and indemnification obligations with respect to a breach of such covenants and obligations shall thereupon be extinguished. The covenants and agreements herein that by their terms are expressly required to be performed after the Closing (all covenants and agreements described in this sentence, the “Surviving Covenants”) will survive the Closing until the date that is ninety (90) days after the last date on which each such covenant was required to be performed; provided, that the covenants and agreements of the Participating Securityholders to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 8.2.1 shall survive the Closing until the date that is sixty (60) days after the applicable statute of limitations, other than with respect to Item # 14 on Schedule 8.2.1, which shall survive for eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date. It is the express intent of the Parties that the survival of each representation and warranty in this Agreement is shorter than the statute of limitations that would otherwise have been applicable to such representation or warranty, and, by contract, the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such representation or warranty is hereby reduced so that it ends at the Closing, as provided in this Section 9.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Claim Notice is given in good faith under Section 8.2 with respect to any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement subject to indemnification under Section 8.2.1 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, the claim with respect to such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall continue indefinitely until such claim is finally resolved pursuant to Section 8.2.

9.1.2From and after the Closing, except for (a) claims for specific performance or equitable relief pursuant to Section 9.9 or with respect to the Surviving Covenants, (b) claims pursuant to Section 2.2.2, and (c) claims pursuant to the Transaction Agreements other than this Agreement or any certificate delivered at Closing pursuant hereto, the sole and exclusive remedy and source of recovery in respect of any claim by any Indemnified Party for any and all Losses or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement, or arising out of or in any way related to any claim or cause of action with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement or the Transactions, including any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and certificates delivered at Closing pursuant hereto, shall be the indemnification provisions of Section 8.2 or, in the case of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, the indemnification rights of the Buyer Indemnified Parties under the R&W Insurance Policy. Any claim for indemnification under Section 8.2 is required to be made on or prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 9.1.1, and if not made prior to such expiration, shall be irrevocably and unconditionally released and waived by the Party seeking indemnification with respect thereto; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstance shall this sentence be deemed to limit the rights of the Buyer Indemnified Parties under the R&W Insurance Policy.

9.1.3Neither the Buyer Parties nor the Surviving Company nor the Securityholders or the Securityholders Representative may avoid the limitations on liability set forth in this Section 9.1 by (a) seeking damages for breach of Contract, tort or pursuant to any other theory of liability, or (b) except in cases of Fraud, asserting any claim against any Person that is not a party (or a successor to a party) to this Agreement for breaches of the

116

representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Agreement; it being understood that claims against Participating Securityholders, in their capacities as such, for Fraud on the part of the Company shall be subject to the limitations of Section 8.2.4. The Parties hereto agree that the limits imposed on the remedies with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions were specifically bargained for between sophisticated Parties, constitute a material term of this Agreement, and were specifically taken into account in the determination of the amounts to be paid to the Securityholders hereunder.

Section 9.4Assignment and Succession. Except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors by operation of law and permitted assigns of the Parties. No assignment of this Agreement may be made or have any effect by any Party at any time, whether or not by operation of law, without the other Parties’ prior written consent, except that Parent may assign this Agreement and any or all of its rights and interests hereunder (a) to one or more of its Affiliates or designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder, (b) as collateral security to any lender providing financing to Parent, or (c) to any acquiror or purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets or Equity Interests of the Company or Parent, in each case, so long as Parent is not relieved of any Liability or obligation hereunder.

Section 9.5Amendment or Supplement. Subject to the requirements of applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended at any time by execution of an instrument in writing

119

identifying itself as an amendment signed, when amended prior to the Closing, by ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Merger Sub One, Merger Sub Two, the Securityholders Representative (if such amendment affects the rights or obligations of the Securityholders Representative) and the Company and, when amended on or after the Closing, by Parent, the Surviving Company and the Securityholders Representative.

Section 9.6Waivers. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid and binding unless it is in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure on the part of any Party in exercising any right, privilege or remedy hereunder and no delay on the part of any Party in executing any right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. No notice to or demand on a Party made hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Party giving such notice or making such demand to take further action without notice or demand as permitted hereunder.

Section 9.7Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and the other documents referred to herein which form a part hereof, including the other Transaction Agreements, and the Confidentiality Agreement, contain the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein. This Agreement supersedes all prior and contemporaneous, representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, arrangements, contracts, discussions, negotiations, undertakings and understandings (whether written or oral) among the Parties with respect to such subject matter (other than the Confidentiality Agreement). Upon the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate and none of the Parties shall have any further Liability or obligation thereunder.

Section 9.8No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the Closing, Article VIII is made for the benefit of the Persons set forth therein. From and after the Closing, all of the Persons identified in the immediately preceding sentence shall be entitled to enforce such provisions and to avail themselves of the benefits of any remedy for any breach of such provisions, all to the same extent as if such Persons were Parties.

Section 9.9Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the Parties in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that Parent, on the one hand, and the Company (if before the Closing) or the Securityholders Representative (if after the Closing), on the other hand, shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction and that this shall include the right of Parent, on the one hand, and the Company (if before the Closing) or the Securityholders Representative (if after the Closing), on the other hand, to cause the other Party to fully perform the terms of this Agreement to the fullest extent permissible pursuant to this Agreement and applicable Law and to thereafter cause this Agreement and the Transactions to be consummated on the terms and subject to the conditions thereto set forth in this Agreement. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any Party may have under this Agreement or otherwise. Each of the Parties hereby waives (a) any defense that a remedy at law would be adequate or that a remedy of specific performance is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and (b) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Section 9.10Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that any term or provision of the Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable under any Law or public policy, the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect if the economic and legal substance of this Agreement and the Mergers shall not be affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Any such term or provision found to be illegal, invalid or

120

unenforceable only in part or in degree shall remain in full force and effect to the extent not invalid, illegal or unenforceable. Upon the determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties intend that such provision shall be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent possible under applicable Law and compatible with the consummation of the Transactions as originally intended.

Section 9.11Costs and Expenses. Except as otherwise specified herein, whether or not the Mergers are consummated, each Party shall pay all costs and expenses it has incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Buyer Parties shall bear (a) 50% of the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent and the Paying Agent, (b) all fees and expenses in connection with any filing or submission of any regulatory filing that is necessary under the HSR Act, (c) all premiums, costs and expenses to obtain and maintain the D&O Tail Policy, (d) 50% of any Transfer Taxes, and (e) the R&W Insurance Policy Cost.

Section 9.12Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. The exchange of copies of this Agreement and manually executed signature pages by transmission by facsimile or by email of a PDF of a handwritten original signature or signatures to the other Parties shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Agreement and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. The signature of a Party transmitted by facsimile or other electronic means shall be deemed to be an original signature for any purpose.

Section 9.13Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice of law principles that would require or permit the application of the Laws of another jurisdiction.

Section 9.14Exclusive Jurisdiction; Venue; Service of Process. In any action or proceeding between any of the Parties arising under or related to this Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements or the Mergers, each of the Parties (a) knowingly, voluntarily, irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or to the extent that such court does not accept jurisdiction, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, (b) agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined exclusively in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 9.14, (c) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in such courts, including any objection that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum or that the court does not have jurisdiction over any Party, and (d) agrees that service of process upon such Party in any such action or proceeding shall be effective if such process is given as a notice in accordance with Section 9.3. The Parties agree that any Party may commence a proceeding in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts.

Section 9.15Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, IRREVOCABLY AND UNDER THE PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OF COUNSEL WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS OR THE MERGERS, BETWEEN ANY OF THE PARTIES.

Section 9.16Non-Recourse. All claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement (including any representation or warranty made in or in

121

connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement), may be made only against the Persons that are expressly identified as parties hereto or thereto or Participating Securityholders (including any Person who becomes a party hereto or thereto) and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein or therein with respect to such party. Except as set forth in the immediately foregoing sentence, no Person who is not a named party to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement or Participating Securityholder, including any director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any named Party or Participating Securityholder, shall have any Liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose Liability of an entity party against its owners or affiliates) for any obligations or Liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement or the negotiation or execution of any of the foregoing. Nothing in this Section 9.16 shall in any way limit or qualify the Liabilities of Parent or Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two or any Participating Securityholders under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.16 is intended to nor shall it be interpreted to limit any Party’s remedies against a Participating Securityholder or Liabilities of such Participating Securityholder in respect of a claim for Fraud committed by such Participating Securityholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9.16 (i) is intended to nor shall it be interpreted to limit any Party’s remedies or Liabilities in respect of a claim for Fraud, it being understood that claims against Participating Securityholders, in their capacities as such, for Fraud on the part of the Company shall be subject to the limitations of Section 8.2.4, or (ii) shall prejudice the Securityholders Representative’s right to indemnification from the Participating Securityholders pursuant to Section 8.1.

Section 9.17Provision Respecting Legal Representation; Attorney-Client Privilege.

9.17.1The Parties acknowledge and agree that ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ US LLP and ▇▇▇▇▇ Lovells International LLP (collectively, “▇▇▇▇▇ Lovells”) represented the Company with respect to this Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements, and the Transactions. The Parties also agree that if the Securityholders Representative so desires, acting on behalf of the Participating Securityholders and without the need for any consent or waiver by the Company, the Buyer Parties or the Surviving Company, ▇▇▇▇▇ Lovells shall be permitted to represent the Securityholders Representative and each and any Participating Securityholder and each of their respective Affiliates (collectively, the “Securityholder Group”) after the Closing in connection with any matter related to the Transactions or any disagreement or dispute relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, after the Closing, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be permitted to represent the members of the Securityholder Group, or any one or more of them, in connection with any negotiation, transaction or dispute (including any litigation, arbitration or other adversary proceeding) with Buyer Parties and the Surviving Company or any of their agents or Affiliates under or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements, any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Agreements, and any related matter, and the Buyer Parties waive, and will cause the Surviving Company to waive, after the Closing any conflict of interest and any applicable rule of professional conduct necessary to allow ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to engage in any such representation. The Buyer Parties consent, and after Closing will cause the Surviving Company to consent, to any such representation by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ notwithstanding the fact that ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may have represented the Company on a substantially similar matter or may have confidential information related to such matter. Upon and after the Closing, the Surviving Company shall cease to have any attorney-client relationship with ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with respect to the Transactions.

9.17.2For good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Buyer Party, for itself and on behalf of any of its Affiliates and Subsidiaries, including without limitation the Surviving Company, hereby transfers and assigns to the Securityholder Group any and all rights, privileges and ownership of any and all attorney-client privilege, attorney work product, legal advice and any other expectation of client confidentiality, in any form or format whatsoever, with respect to the evaluation, negotiation,

122

documentation, execution, delivery, consummation and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, the Transactions and any dispute or proceeding arising under or in connection thereto that, immediately prior to the Closing, would be deemed to be privileged communications between the Securityholder Group and the Company (collectively, the “Seller Parties”), on the one hand, and the Seller Parties’ counsel, including, without limitation, ▇▇▇▇▇ Lovells, on the other hand (the “Closing Legal Communications”). The rights and privileges of the Closing Legal Communications shall be controlled, and waiver thereto may only be approved, by the Securityholders Representative. All files, attorney notes, drafts or other documents in the Seller Parties’ counsel’s possession that are Closing Legal Communications shall be the property of the Securityholder Group, and the Seller Parties’ counsel shall have no duty, and the Buyer Parties and the Surviving Company may not request Seller Parties’ counsel, to disclose any Closing Legal Communications to the Buyer Parties or any of its Affiliates, including the Surviving Company. If any Buyer Party or the Surviving Company is required by any legal proceeding or Governmental Authority to disclose any Closing Legal Communications notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, such Buyer Party or the Surviving Company, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the Securityholders Representative (if legally permissible) prior to furnishing such information, and will seek reasonable arrangements to protect the Closing Legal Communications to the maximum extent possible and only disclose that information necessary to comply with such legal proceeding or Governmental Authority. The existence of any Closing Legal Communications in the Surviving Company’s possession after the Closing shall not be deemed a waiver of the privilege related to such Closing Legal Communications, and the Parties agree to take all commercially reasonable steps, and the Buyer Parties agree to cause the Surviving Company to take all commercially reasonable steps after Closing, to comply with applicable Law with respect to all applicable privileges and confidences with respect to the Closing Legal Communications.

Section 9.18Non-Reliance.

9.18.1The Company, the Securityholders Representative and, by virtue of the Written Consent or delivery of the Required Equity Documentation (or, with respect to any holder of Company Options, the execution and delivery of the corresponding Option Termination Agreement or with respect to any holder of Company Warrants the execution and delivery of the corresponding Warrant Termination Agreement, and the Exercise Documents), as applicable, the Securityholders (collectively, the “Acknowledging Parties”) acknowledge and understand that (i) the Buyer Parties and their respective Affiliates possess material nonpublic information regarding the Buyer Parties and the Parent Shares not known to the Acknowledging Parties, including (x) information received by principals and employees of the Buyer Parties in their capacities as directors, officers, significant members or Affiliates of the Buyer Parties, and (y) information received on a privileged basis from the attorneys and financial advisers representing the Buyer Parties and their respective governing bodies (collectively, the “Information”), and that the Buyer Parties are not disclosing the Information to the Acknowledging Parties.

9.18.2The Acknowledging Parties agree that no Buyer Party nor any Affiliates of any Buyer Party shall have any liability to the Acknowledging Parties, their respective Affiliates, grantors, heirs or beneficiaries, whatsoever relating to the Buyer Parties and the Parent Shares due to or in connection with the Buyer Parties’ use or non-disclosure of the Information, and the Acknowledging Parties irrevocably waive any claim relating to the Closing Merger Consideration (or the Transactions) or that the Acknowledging Parties might have based on the failure of the Buyer Parties to disclose the Information.

9.18.3Each of the Acknowledging Parties acknowledges and agrees that (a) except for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article IV or in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of a Buyer Party pursuant to Section 6.2.3(e), no Buyer Party, nor any of their respective Affiliates, or its or their respective Representatives, that are not party to this Agreement (each, a “Nonparty Affiliate”) (or any other Person) makes, or has made,

123

any representation or warranty, whether written or oral, expressed or implied, statutory or otherwise relating to a Buyer Party, or its or their businesses or operations or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions (and any such representation or warranty is hereby expressly disclaimed by the Buyer Parties and the Acknowledging Parties). The Acknowledging Parties acknowledge and agree that they are not, and their respective Nonparty Affiliates are not, relying on or will rely on, any such representation or warranty, (b) no Person has been authorized by any Buyer Party to make any representation or warranty relating to a Buyer Party or its or their businesses or operations or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions, and if made, such representation or warranty must not be relied upon by the Acknowledging Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or the Representatives of any of the foregoing as having been authorized by any Buyer Party (or any other Person) and (c) any estimate, projection, prediction, data, financial information, memorandum, presentation or any other materials or information provided or addressed to any of the Acknowledging Parties or any of their respective Affiliates or the Representatives of any of the foregoing, are not and shall not be deemed to be or include representations or warranties unless and to the extent any such materials or information is the subject of any express representation or warranty set forth in Article IV, in any other Transaction Agreement or in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of any Buyer Party pursuant to Section 6.2.3(e).

Section 9.19Release. Effective as of the Closing and except in the case of Fraud committed by the Parent, Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two, each Securityholder, Warrantholder, Optionholder (by virtue of the Written Consent or delivery of the applicable Required Equity Documentation), on behalf of itself and such Person’s successors and assigns (collectively, the “Securityholder Releasing Party”), hereby fully, irrevocably and unconditionally releases, acquits and forever discharges the Buyer Parties, their respective Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Surviving Company and its Subsidiaries), and their respective current and former direct and indirect equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, or assignees (or any former or current equityholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, agent, representative, Affiliate, member manager, general or limited partner, or assignee of any of the foregoing) (collectively, the “Buyer Released Parties”) from any and all manner of actions, causes of action, claims, obligations, demands, damages, costs, expenses, compensation or other relief, whether known or unknown, whether in law or equity, that such Securityholder Releasing Party has, had, or may have, in any capacity, against any Buyer Released Party, whether directly or derivatively through another Person, arising contemporaneously with or prior to the Transactions, or on account of, arising out of or related to any act, omission, transaction, matter, cause or event occurring contemporaneously with or up to and including the Closing Date arising out of or related to the Company, its Affiliates and its or their respective officers, directors and Representatives or the Transactions (the “Securityholder Released Claims”); provided, that Securityholder Released Claims shall not include (a) the rights of any Securityholder Releasing Party set forth in or arising under any provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement (including claims for Fraud committed by the Parent, Merger Sub One or Merger Sub Two), (b) any rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which the current and former directors and officers of the Company are entitled pursuant to this Agreement or the Company’s Organizational Documents (subject to Section 5.6), (c) with respect to any Participating Securityholder that is an individual, any claims related to earned (or accrued) and unpaid wages, bonuses, reimbursements and benefits that such Participating Securityholder may have as a result of his or her employment by any Group Company on or prior to the Closing Date, or his or her engagement by any Group Company as an independent contractor, consultant or other service provider on or prior to the Closing Date, and (d) any matters that cannot be released as a matter of Law. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Securityholder Releasing Party hereby waives and agrees not to assert any rights under any Law to the effect that a general release does not extend to claims that the creditor does not know

124

or suspect at the time of executing the release, including Section 1542 of the California Civil Code.
