(b)Subject to the Closing occurring, in the event of any breach of Section 2.4(a) (to the extent not already accounted for in the calculation of the Purchase Price under Section 2.2), the Seller undertakes to pay and shall pay to the Purchaser on demand a sum equal to the aggregate amount necessary to put the Company into the position it would have been in if such Leakage had not occurred; provided that, any Leakage claim to be made by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) must be made in writing within six (6) months following the Closing Date (the “Leakage Claim Period”) to the Seller setting out in reasonable detail the Purchaser’s calculation of the amount of Leakage other than Permitted Leakage (such notice, the “Leakage Claim Notice”), and:

(i)if the Purchaser timely delivers the Leakage Claim Notice to the Seller, the Purchaser and the Seller shall attempt in good faith, for a period of ten (10) Business Days, to agree on the amount of the Leakage. If the Parties do not resolve all disputes with respect to the Leakage Claim Notice by the end of such ten (10) Business Day period after the date of delivery of the Leakage Claim Notice, then the Parties shall submit any remaining items in dispute to PricewaterhouseCoopers Korea (“삼일회계법인” in Korean) or, if PricewaterhouseCoopers Korea is not available, another accounting firm of international repute that the Parties mutually agree (such accounting firm, the “Accounting Firm”) for resolution. The Purchaser and the Seller will instruct the Accounting Firm to render its determination with respect to the remaining items in dispute based solely on the information and materials provided by each Party and on the definitions and other terms included herein, by no later than ten (10) Business Days after the engagement of the Accounting Firm by the Parties. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding to the Parties, and the determination of the Accounting Firm shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction over the Party against which such determination is to be enforced. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm will be shared by the Purchaser and the Seller in inverse proportion to the relative amounts of the disputed amount determined to be for the account of the Purchaser and the Seller, respectively, and

(ii)within ten (10) Business Days after the final determination of the amount of Leakage pursuant to this Section 2.4(b), the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser such amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in advance by the Purchaser.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall have no liability for any Leakage unless it has received the Leakage Claim Notice on the date of or before the expiry of the Leakage Claim Period. The Purchaser acknowledges that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Seller shall have no liability to the Purchaser in respect of any Leakage if the Closing does not occur. The Purchaser’s sole remedy in respect of any claim based on Leakage is contained in Section 2.4(b). Any payment made by the Seller to the Purchaser under this Section 2.4 shall be treated as a reduction of the Purchase Price paid to the Seller. Except in the event of Fraud, Willful Misconduct or willful and material breach, the Seller shall have no liability for any Leakage pursuant to this Section 2.4 to the extent the aggregate liability of the Seller to the Purchaser for Leakage claims exceeds USD [***].

Section 6.6Confidentiality.

(a)The Parties agree to continue to abide by that certain Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated as of [***], by and between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) and the Seller agrees to be bound thereby as if it had been a party to the Confidentiality Agreement. Until the Closing, neither the Seller nor any of its respective Affiliates will waive any right under any other nondisclosure agreement previously entered into by the Seller or any of its Affiliates and any other Person with respect to the evaluation of the sale of the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

Except as contemplated by Section 6.7, neither the Purchaser nor the Seller will, and the Purchaser and the Seller will cause each of their respective Restricted Persons not to, disclose to any Person any information with respect to the legal, financial or other terms or conditions of this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the Proposed Transactions; provided, however, that the Purchaser may disclose such Confidential Information (including a copy of this Agreement) as required in order to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing, or other requirements (including under applicable securities laws and the rules of a stock exchange on which the Purchaser’s securities are listed). The foregoing does not restrict the right of any Party to disclose such information (i) to its respective Restricted Persons (and, with respect to the Seller, its investors, partners, direct or indirect shareholders, any current or potential financing sources and minority shareholders of the Company) to the extent reasonably required to facilitate the negotiation, execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, (ii) to any Governmental Authority or arbitrator to the extent reasonably required in connection with any Proceeding relating to the enforcement of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement and (iii) as permitted in accordance with Section 6.6(c). Each Party will advise its respective Restricted Persons with respect to the confidentiality obligations under this Section 6.6(b) and will be responsible for any breach or violation of such obligations by its Restricted Persons.

(c)If a Party or any of its respective Restricted Persons becomes legally compelled or required under applicable stock exchange regulations to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise restricted by this Agreement, then such Party will (i) give the other Party immediate written notice of such requirement, (ii) consult with and assist the other Party in obtaining an injunction or other appropriate remedy to prevent such disclosure, and (iii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to any information so disclosed. Subject to the previous sentence, the disclosing Party or such Restricted Persons may make only such disclosure that, in the opinion of its counsel, it is legally compelled or otherwise required to make to avoid standing liable for contempt or suffering other material penalty.

(d)Effective upon the Closing, the Seller hereby assigns to the Purchaser all of its rights under each confidentiality agreement (other than the Confidentiality Agreement) to which the Seller is a party and which pertain to the business or operations of the Company.

Section 6.7Public Announcements. Any public announcement or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement or the Proposed Transactions will be issued at such time and in such manner as the Purchaser and the Seller mutually agree; provided, that where a public announcement by the Purchaser is required by Law or the rules and regulations of Nasdaq Global Select Market or any other applicable stock exchange, the Purchaser will have the right to timely make such announcement without the agreement of the Seller. The Purchaser and the Seller will consult with each other concerning the means by which the employees, customers, suppliers and others having dealings with the Company will be informed of the Proposed Transactions.

Section 6.8Resignation of Officers and Directors. At the written request of the Purchaser (which request will be delivered at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing), the Seller will cause any officer and/or member of the boards of directors (or equivalent governing body) of the Company to tender his/her resignation from such position effective immediately as of the Closing, and in the event any such individual does not tender his/her resignation, the Company will take such actions necessary to remove such individuals from such positions effective as of the Closing.

Section 6.9Post-Closing Cooperation. For the longer of the period required by applicable Law or six (6) years following the Closing Date, each of the Purchaser and the Seller will (a) retain books and records relating to the Company in their possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing and (b) afford the other and, their representatives, during normal business hours of the requested party and at the requesting Party’s expense, reasonable access to the books and records relating to the Company in their possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by the requesting Party.

Section 6.10Further Assurances. Subject to the other express provisions of this Agreement, the Parties will cooperate reasonably with each other and with their respective representatives in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and the Parties agree (a) to furnish, or cause to be furnished, upon request to each other such further information, (b) to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to each other such other documents, and (c) to do, or cause to be done, such other acts and things, all as the requesting Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the Proposed Transactions.

Section 6.11Non-competition and Non-solicitation. The Seller acknowledges that the Company has over many years devoted substantial time, effort and resources to developing for the Company the Trade Secrets and other confidential and proprietary information, as well as the Company’s relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and others doing business with the Company; that such relationships, Trade Secrets and other information are vital to the successful operation of the Company after Closing; that the enforcement of the restrictive covenants against the Seller as set forth in this Section 6.11 would not impose any undue burden upon the Seller; and that the ability to enforce the restrictive covenants against such is a material inducement to the

decision of the Purchaser to consummate the Proposed Transactions. Accordingly, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”):

(a)the Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, engage in any business anywhere in the world that develops, manufactures, produces, markets, sells or distributes any (x) current-generation (and those among next generation currently being developed) lithium ion-based pouch-type battery cells and battery packs or (y) battery products that are reduced to practice or being reduced to practice in research and development process as of the Closing Date, in each case, that the Company develops (or is currently developing), manufactures, produces, markets, sells or distributes as of the Closing Date (the “Current Company Business”), or own an interest in, manage, operate, join, control, lend money or render financial assistance to, be employed by, or participate in as a partner or equity holder, any Person that is engaged in the Current Company Business; provided, however, that, for the purposes of this Section 6.11, ownership of securities having no more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding voting power of any Person which are listed on any national securities exchange for investment purposes will not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 6.11; and

(b)the Seller shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, for itself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other Person, (i) call upon any employee who is, at the time the individual is called upon, an employee of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) (except one (1) employee who has been seconded or dispatched to the Company by the Seller, namely [***], whom the Seller or its Affiliates shall be free to solicit and/or employ after 12 months following the Closing Date notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.11(b)) for the purpose or with the intent of soliciting such employee away from or out of the employ of such Person, or employ or offer employment to any individual who was or is employed by the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company) unless such individual will have ceased to be employed by such Person for a period of at least six (6) months prior thereto or (ii) cause, induce or attempt to cause or induce any customer, strategic partner, supplier, distributor, landlord or others doing business with the Company to cease or reduce the extent of its business relationship with the Company or to deal with any competitor of the Company; provided, however, that this Section 6.11(b) will not be deemed to prohibit the Seller or its Affiliates from engaging in general media advertising or solicitation that may be targeted to a particular geographic or technical area but that is not targeted towards employees of the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates (including the Company).

Section 6.12Release.

(a)Effective as of the Closing, the Seller, on its own behalf and on behalf of its past and present agents, representatives, Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, managers, controlling Persons, shareholders, members, partners, Subsidiaries, successors, assigns and all other Persons that have or could potentially derive rights through it (collectively, the “Related Parties”), will be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally released, waived, acquitted, remises and forever discharged the Purchaser and the Company, each of their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors, assigns, controlling Persons, shareholders, members, partners, directors, officers, attorneys and other professionals, principals, trustees, employees, representatives, agents, executors and administrators, whether past, present, or future (collectively, the “Released Persons”) from any and all claims, demands or Proceedings, causes of action, orders, Contracts, agreements, Liabilities, rights, remedies, damages, expenses and attorneys’ or other professionals’ fees and of whatsoever kind or nature, fixed or contingent, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, then existing or thereafter arising, whether

(b)For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 6.12 will operate to release any Claims arising on or after the Closing Date under this Agreement, nor will operate to release any Claims that may arise under the terms and conditions of this Agreement arising from the terms of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the indemnities under Article 10).

Section 6.13Resale Registration Statement.

(a)Promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Purchaser shall prepare a registration statement registering the resale by the Seller and any Permitted Transferee of the Consideration Shares that are Accredited Investors and non-“U.S. persons” within the meaning of Regulation S (together, the “Exempt Stockholders”) of the Consideration Shares (such shares, the “Registrable Shares,” and such registration statement, the “Resale Registration Statement”); provided that any such securities shall cease to be Registrable Shares on the earliest to occur of when (i) such Registrable Shares have been disposed of in accordance with the Resale Registration Statement, (ii) such Registrable Shares shall have been sold in accordance with Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in effect), (iii) such Registrable Shares have been transferred in a transaction in which the transferor’s rights under this Agreement are not assigned to the transferee of the securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iv) with respect to a holder, such securities are eligible for resale by such holder, together with its Affiliates, pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or other exemption from registration under the Securities Act) without any volume, manner of sale or other limitations or (v) such Registrable Securities have ceased to be outstanding. The Seller shall complete, execute and deliver the Selling Stockholder Questionnaires in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “Selling Stockholder Questionnaires”) to the Purchaser. The Seller and any other Exempt Stockholder who has returned a properly completed Selling Stockholder Questionnaire is referred to herein as a “Selling Stockholder.”

(b)The Purchaser shall file the Resale Registration Statement with the SEC no later than the tenth Business Day following the Closing Date (such day, the “Registration Deadline”); provided that if the Registration Deadline is not during an “open trading window” as determined by the Purchaser’s xxxxxxx xxxxxxx policies (an “Open Trading Window”), the Registration Deadline shall be the Business Day following the first Business Day of the next Open Trading Window. If the Purchaser is eligible to file a Resale Registration Statement on Form S-3 pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act (an “Automatic Resale Registration Statement”), the Resale Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement. If the Purchaser is not eligible to use an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, the Resale Registration Statement shall

be on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not available to the Purchaser, another appropriate form. If the Resale Registration Statement is not an Automatic Resale Registration Statement, the Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to have the Resale Registration Statement declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such Resale Registration Statement is filed. The Purchaser will advise the Seller promptly after the Purchaser receives any request by the SEC for amendment of the Resale Registration Statement or any SEC comments thereon. Once the Resale Registration Statement is declared effective, the Purchaser shall notify the Seller of such declaration, and thereafter, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement to be continuously effective and usable until the date that is the one-year anniversary of the Closing Date, or such earlier time when no Registrable Securities remain (such period, the “Registration Period”). The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) to comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

(c)The Resale Registration Statement (or any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming a part of such Resale Registration Statement), as initially filed, shall include the Registrable Shares of all Selling Stockholders for whom the Purchaser has received properly completed Selling Stockholder Questionnaires on or before the Closing Date. On or about a date requested by the Seller in writing (so long as such date is at least ten Business Days after such request and is within an Open Trading Window), the Purchaser shall file an amendment or supplement, as appropriate, to the Resale Registration Statement (and any prospectus or prospectus supplement forming a part of such Resale Registration Statement) to include the Registrable Shares of (i) any Selling Stockholders who deliver properly completed Selling Stockholder Questionnaires after the Closing Date or (ii) any Permitted Transferees (who shall be deemed a Selling Stockholder hereunder following delivery of a Selling Stockholder Questionnaire) who delivers a properly completed Selling Stockholder Questionnaire after the Closing Date. The Purchaser shall only be required to file one such amendment or supplement.

(d)The Purchaser shall notify the Seller promptly upon discovery that, or upon the discovery of the happening of any event as a result of which, the Resale Registration Statement or any supplement to any prospectus forming a part of the Resale Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, and, as promptly as practicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement or amend such prospectus so that such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. After the Resale Registration Statement becomes effective, the Purchaser shall notify the Seller of any request by the SEC that the Purchaser amend or supplement such Resale Registration Statement or prospectus, and the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the Resale Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be reasonably necessary to keep the Resale Registration Statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Shares covered by the Resale Registration Statement. The Purchaser shall furnish to each Selling Stockholder such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, and any supplement to any prospectus, as required by the Securities Act and shall take such other actions (including causing the removal of any restricted legends), as the Selling Stockholders may reasonably request in order to facilitate their disposition of their Registrable Shares,

subject to each Selling Stockholder providing any information reasonably requested by the Purchaser to facilitate such action.

(e)Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Section 6.13 to the contrary, the Purchaser shall be entitled to postpone or suspend (a “Permitted Suspension”), for a reasonable period of time not more than thirty (30) consecutive days, the effectiveness or use of, or trading under, any Resale Registration Statement (and such postponement or suspension shall not be a breach of its obligations hereunder) if the Purchaser shall determine that any such sale of any securities pursuant to such Resale Registration Statement would in the good faith judgment of the Purchaser’s board of directors:

(i)materially impede, delay or interfere with any material pending or proposed financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or other similar transaction involving the Purchaser for which the Purchaser’s board of directors has authorized negotiations;

(ii)materially adversely impair the consummation of any pending or proposed material offering or sale of any class of securities by the Purchaser; or

(iii)require disclosure of material nonpublic information that, if disclosed at such time, would be materially harmful to the interests of the Purchaser and its stockholders;

provided, however, that the aggregate period of Permitted Suspension may not exceed sixty (60) days in any six (6) month period; and provided, further, that the Purchaser shall not register any securities for its own account or that of any other shareholder during any period of Permitted Suspension. In the event of the postponement or suspension of effectiveness of any Resale Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 6.13, the Selling Stockholders shall be precluded from using the Resale Registration Statement in connection with a disposition of the relevant Registrable Shares for the duration of such postponement or suspension, and the applicable time period during which such Resale Registration Statement is to remain effective shall be extended by that number of days equal to the number of days the effectiveness of such Resale Registration Statement was postponed or suspended.

(f)The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder with Registrable Shares included in the Resale Registration Statement against any Losses to which such Selling Stockholder may become subject arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in or incorporated by reference into the Resale Registration Statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Purchaser (or any of its Representatives or Affiliates) of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities Law in connection with the Resale Registration Statement or the offer or sale of Registrable Shares thereunder, in each case, to the extent such Losses arise out of or are based upon any claim or cause of action made against such Selling Stockholder by an unaffiliated third party (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Permitted Transferee) who purchased such Registrable Shares from such Selling Stockholder; provided that the Purchaser shall not liable for any such Losses to the extent such Losses arise out of or are based upon information furnished to the Purchaser by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder expressly for use in the Resale Registration Statement; provided, further, that the Purchaser shall not be liable under this Section 6.13(f) for any Losses arising out of or resulting from the diminution in value of the Registrable Shares held by any Selling Stockholder

following the date of this Agreement; provided, further, that the indemnity obligations set forth in this Section 6.13(f) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Losses if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Purchaser shall have the right to assume the defense and settlement of any claim or suit for which the Purchaser may be responsible for indemnification under this Section 6.13(f).

(g)From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and the end of the Registration Period, the Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required to be filed by the Purchaser under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

(h)All of the expenses incurred in connection with any registration of Registrable Shares pursuant to this Agreement, including all SEC fees, blue sky registration and filing fees, listing notices and filing fees, printing fees and expenses, transfer agents’ and registrars’ fees and expenses and all fees and expenses of the Purchaser’s outside counsel and independent accountants of the Purchaser shall be paid by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall not be responsible for any selling expenses of any Selling Stockholder (including any broker’s fees or commissions) or fees or expenses of outside counsel or independent accountants of Selling Stockholder or, to the extent incurred prior to the Closing, the Company in connection with the Resale Registration Statement.

(i)The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Consideration Shares being issued to be approved for listing (subject to notice of issuance) on the Nasdaq Global Select Market effective as of the Closing.

Section 6.14Volume Trading Management.

(a)The Seller agrees that it shall not, and shall cause and direct each of its controlled Affiliates not to, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, transfer or assign (with or without consideration), lend or otherwise dispose of the Consideration Shares, (ii) engage in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or instrument, however described or defined) which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale, loan, pledge or other disposition (whether by the Seller or someone other than the Seller), or transfer of any of the economic consequences of ownership, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, of the Consideration Shares, whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of the Consideration Shares, in cash or otherwise (any such sale, loan, pledge or other disposition, or transfer of economic consequences, a “Transfer”) or (iii) otherwise publicly announce any intention to engage in or cause any action or activity described in clause (i) above or transaction or arrangement described in clause (ii) above; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the Seller from making a Permitted Transfer so long as the Permitted Transferee agrees in a written agreement (which must be provided to the Purchaser before the Permitted Transfer is effective) that (x) any Consideration Shares transferred pursuant to the Permitted Transfer remain subject to restrictions identical to, and remaining in place for the same duration as, those contained in this Section 6.14 otherwise applicable to the Consideration Shares as if no such Permitted Transfer had occurred (the “Share Restrictions”), and (y) the Purchaser shall be made an express third party beneficiary of such agreement with the right to enforce the Share Restrictions against the Permitted Transferee. The Seller represents and

warrants that the Seller is not currently, and has not caused or directed any of its Affiliates to be or become, a party to any agreement or arrangement that provides for, is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in any prohibited Transfer of Consideration Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 6.14(a), the Seller and its Permitted Transferees, if any, shall collectively be permitted to (i) Transfer up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 Consideration Shares per week on a noncumulative basis (not to exceed an aggregate of 1,000,000 Consideration Shares on any one trading day) or (ii) Transfer Consideration Shares without any volume limitation through private transactions or block trades executed outside of any stock exchange.

(b)The Seller acknowledges and agrees that all certificates representing the Consideration Shares of the Seller (and the shares of every other person to which the Seller has made a Permitted Transfer subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 6.14) shall bear a legend or legends referencing the restrictions applicable to such shares under this Section 6.14, which legend shall state in substance:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO VOLUME TRADING RESTRICTIONS AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST OF THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER. SUCH VOLUME TRADING RESTRICTIONS ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SECURITIES.”

Section 6.15 R&W Insurance Policy. On or prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall have obtained and bound third-party insurance in respect of inaccuracies or breaches of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in Article 3 and Article 4 (the “R&W Insurance Policy”), which R&W Insurance Policy shall be in full force and effect as of the Closing. Until the Closing, the Seller will use, and will cause the Company to use, commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist the Purchaser in obtaining the R&W Insurance Policy and remediating any matters that could be the basis of a Loss and that are the subject of exclusions from the coverage of the R&W Insurance Policy at all times prior to the Closing Date (provided, however, that, in no event shall the Seller be required to incur any costs or expenses for such efforts of remediation (and if the Seller decided to incur any costs or expenses, it would be in the Seller’s sole discretion)).

Section 6.16Further Acquisition of Shares.

(a)Until the Closing, the Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase and acquire additional Shares so that the Sale Ratio at the Closing shall be at least ninety-five percent (95%). The Contract, or an amendment or supplement thereto, evidencing the acquisition of the additional Shares by the Seller shall contain a release of claims executed by the relevant seller of such additional Shares, which provision shall be in Korean substantially of the content below:

“[The relevant minority seller] (the “Seller”) acknowledges that, in connection with the sale of the shares owned by the Seller (the “Sale Transaction”) to Xxxx Limited (the “Purchaser”), the terms and conditions of the Sale Transaction have been considered and agreed upon by the parties after collection of sufficient information and negotiation of commercial terms, and confirms that it will not raise any objection to the Purchaser, the Company or other shareholders of the Company (including a subsequent third party acquiror of the shares purchased by the Purchaser from the Seller in this Sale Transaction) in connection with the Sale Transaction, except in the case where the Purchaser breaches the terms and conditions of the Sale Transaction.”

(b)Until the Closing, the Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to purchase and acquire the [***] common shares of the Company issued pursuant to certain stock option agreements but which had not been duly registered with the corporate registry (collectively, the “Unregistered Shares”).

(b)Upon written notice to the Purchaser, the Seller shall have the right, at the Seller’s expense, to represent the Company’s interests in any Tax audit, controversy, dispute or proceeding (“Tax Proceeding”) relating to a taxable period ending on or before the Locked Box Date that would not have a material adverse impact on the Liability for Taxes for any Post-Locked Box Tax Period of the Purchaser, its Affiliates, or the Company. The Seller shall employ counsel of the Seller’s choice at the Seller’s expense; provided, that the Purchaser shall be permitted to be present at, and to participate in, any such Tax Proceeding, including the review of any correspondence and providing reasonable comments to any documents related to such Tax Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not be entitled to settle, either administratively or after the commencement of any Tax Proceeding, any claim for Taxes which would adversely affect in any material respect the Liability for Taxes for any Post-Locked Box Tax Period of the Purchaser, its Affiliates, or the Company without the prior written consent of the Purchaser.

(c)Upon written notice to the Seller, the Purchaser shall have the right to represent its and the Company’s interests in any Tax Proceeding relating to a Straddle Tax Period or relating to a taxable period ending on or before the Locked Box Date that would have a material adverse impact on the Liability for Taxes for any Post-Locked Box Tax Period of the Purchaser, its Affiliates or the Company. The Purchaser shall employ counsel of the Purchaser’s choice, provided that Seller shall be permitted at the Seller’s expense to be present at, any such Tax Proceeding, including the review of any correspondence related to such Tax Proceeding.

The Purchaser and the Seller shall retain all books and records with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Company that are within such party’s possession or control until the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations and abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority for all periods required by such Taxing Authority. The Purchaser and the Seller shall cooperate with each other, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in the conduct of any audit or other Tax Proceeding involving the Company.

Section 9.5Tax Sharing Agreements. The Seller shall cause the Company to terminate any Tax sharing agreement to which the Company is a party on or before the Closing Date.
