SEPARATION AGREEMENT

This Separation Agreement (this “Agreement”) is dated as of November 17, 2011, by and between MEADWESTVACO CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”) and Monaco SpinCo Inc., a Delaware corporation and currently a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to such terms in Article VII.

RECITALS

1. Parent is engaged, directly and indirectly, in the C&OP Business;

2. The Board of Directors of Parent has determined that it would be in the best interests of Parent and its stockholders to separate the C&OP Business from the other businesses of Parent;

3. Parent has caused Spinco, which currently conducts no business operations and has no assets or liabilities other than in connection with its formation, to be formed in order to facilitate such separation;

4. Parent currently owns all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Spinco (the “Spinco Common Stock”);

5. Parent and Spinco have each determined that it would be appropriate and desirable for Parent and certain of its Subsidiaries to contribute and transfer to Spinco, and for Spinco to receive and assume, directly or indirectly, certain Assets and Liabilities of the C&OP Business in exchange for (a) Parent’s receipt of shares of Spinco Common Stock issued pursuant to the Spinco Stock Issuance, and (b) the distribution of the Special Dividend, as further described herein and in the Merger Agreement;

6. Parent and Spinco contemplate that, concurrently with or immediately following the Spinco Reorganization as further described herein, Spinco will enter into the Debt Financing Agreements with respect to the Spinco Commitment Letter and Related Letters as further described herein and in the Merger Agreement (the Spinco Financing, and the entry into the Debt Financing Agreements, together with the Spinco Stock Issuance and the Special Dividend, the “Recapitalization”);

7. Parent and Spinco contemplate that, following the Spinco Reorganization and Recapitalization, Parent will distribute all of the shares of Spinco Common Stock to Parent stockholders without consideration on a pro rata basis (the “Distribution”);

8. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Spinco Reorganization and the Distribution, taken together, are intended to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code;

9. Parent intends to request a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service substantially to the effect that, among other things, (i) the Spinco Reorganization and the Distribution, taken together, will qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the

Code, and (ii) Parent will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income Tax purposes in connection with the receipt of the Spinco Distribution Debt or the consummation of the Debt Exchange (the “Private Letter Ruling”);

10. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 17, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”), among Parent, Spinco, ACCO Brands Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Acquirer”), and Merger Sub, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Acquirer (“Merger Sub”), immediately following the Distribution, Merger Sub will merge with and into Spinco (the “Merger”) and Spinco Common Stock will be converted into shares of common stock of Acquirer on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement;

11. It is a condition to the Merger that, prior to the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the Distribution be completed;

12. The Distribution will be carried out for the corporate business purpose of tailoring Spinco’s corporate structure to facilitate the Merger (which, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code);

13. Parent and Spinco have determined that (a) the Merger will not be undertaken unless the Distribution occurs, (b) the Merger cannot be accomplished by an alternative nontaxable transaction that does not involve the Distribution and is neither impractical nor unduly expensive, and (c) Acquirer is not related to Parent or Spinco;

14. This Agreement is intended to be a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g); and

15. The Parties intend in this Agreement to set forth the principal arrangements between them regarding the Spinco Reorganization, the Recapitalization and the Distribution, and certain other agreements that will, following the Distribution, govern certain matters relating to the Spinco Reorganization, the Recapitalization and the Distribution and the relationship of Parent, Spinco and their respective Subsidiaries.

Accordingly, the Parties agree as follows:

A single Asset may fall within more than one of clauses (i) through (xvi) in this Section 1.4(a); such fact does not imply that (x) such Asset must be Conveyed more than once or (y) any duplication of such Asset is required. The fact that an Asset may be excluded under one clause does not imply that it is not intended to be included under another. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Intellectual Property that does not fall within clause (vi) or (viii) will be deemed to be included in any other clause of this Section 1.4(a).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (a), the Spinco Assets will not in any event include any of the following Assets (the “Excluded Assets”):

(ii) this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (and each other Contract expressly contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be entered into or continued by any of the Parties or any of the members of their respective Groups);

(iii) any Contracts to which any Person other than the Parties and their respective Affiliates is a party (it being understood that to the extent that the rights and Liabilities of the Parties and the members of their respective Groups under any such Contracts constitute Spinco Assets or Spinco Liabilities, they will be Conveyed pursuant to Section 1.1(a) or Section 1.1(b), or allocated pursuant to Section 1.7(d)); and

(iv) any Contracts to which any non-wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent or Spinco, as the case may be, is a party (it being understood that directors’ qualifying shares or similar interests will be disregarded for purposes of determining whether a Subsidiary is wholly owned) (it being understood that to the extent that the rights and Liabilities of the Parties and the members of their respective Groups under any such Contracts constitute Spinco Assets or Spinco Liabilities, they will be Conveyed pursuant to Section 1.1(a) or Section 1.1(b), or allocated pursuant to Section 1.7(d)).

(c) Settlement of Intercompany Accounts. All of the intercompany receivables, payables, loans and other accounts between Spinco or any member of the Spinco Group, on the one hand, and Parent or any member of the Parent Group, on the other hand, in existence as of immediately prior to the Business Transfer Time (collectively, the “Intercompany Accounts”) will be settled at the Business Transfer Time pursuant to the procedures set forth in Schedule 1.6(c).

Section 1.7 Governmental Approvals and Third-Party Consents.

(a) Obtaining Consents. To the extent that the consummation of the Spinco Reorganization or the Distribution requires any third-party Consents or Governmental Approvals, subject to the next two sentences, the Parties will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Consents or Governmental Approvals, as soon as reasonably practicable, at the times indicated on Schedule 1.7 and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.7(b).

- 11 -

However, Parent will under no circumstance be required to make any payments or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, regardless of any provision to the contrary in the underlying Contract, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any third party to obtain any Consent or Governmental Approvals unless and to the extent that Spinco or Acquirer agrees to reimburse and make whole Parent to Parent’s reasonable satisfaction for any payment or other accommodation made by Parent at Spinco’s request. Spinco hereby agrees to reimburse and make whole Parent to Parent’s reasonable satisfaction any payment or other accommodation made by Parent in respect of the third-party Consents or Governmental Approvals specifically identified as a “Required Consent” on Schedule 1.7. Spinco agrees that in the event that any third party or Governmental Authority requests that Parent make a payment or offer or grant an accommodation to obtain a third-party Consents or Governmental Approvals and Spinco does not agree to reimburse or make whole Parent in connection therewith, Spinco shall not be entitled to the benefits of the provision in, Parent will not be obligated to take any efforts under, Section 1.7(d) in respect of any Spinco Asset, Spinco Liability, Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability which Conveyance is subject to such third-party Consents or Governmental Approvals. For the avoidance of doubt, the required efforts and responsibilities of the Parties (i) to seek the Consents necessary to provide the Services (as defined in the TSA) will be governed by Section 3.2 of the TSA and (ii) to seek approval pursuant to the HSR Act or Foreign Competition Laws (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) and the Company Stockholder Approval (as defined in the Merger Agreement) will be governed by the Merger Agreement. The obligations set forth in this Section 1.7(a) will terminate on the one-year anniversary of the Business Transfer Time.

(b) Transfer in Violation of Laws or Requiring Consent or Governmental Approval. If and to the extent that the valid, complete and perfected Conveyance to the Spinco Group of any Spinco Asset or Spinco Liability, or to the Parent Group of any Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability, would be a violation of applicable Laws or require any Consent or Governmental Approval in connection with the Spinco Reorganization, the Recapitalization or the Distribution, then notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Conveyance to the Spinco Group of any such Spinco Asset or Spinco Liability, or to the Parent Group of any such Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability, will automatically be deferred, and no Conveyance will occur until all legal or contractual impediments are removed or such Consents or Governmental Approvals have been obtained. Any Asset or Liability which Conveyance has been so deferred will still be considered a Spinco Asset, a Spinco Liability, an Excluded Asset, or an Excluded Liability, as applicable, and will be subject to Section 1.7(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent or Spinco may elect to require the immediate Conveyance of any Spinco Asset, Spinco Liability, Excluded Asset or Excluded Liability notwithstanding any requirement that an immaterial Consent or immaterial Governmental Approval be obtained; provided that (i) if Spinco so elects to require the immediate Conveyance of any such Asset or Liability, any Liabilities arising from such Conveyance will be deemed to be Spinco Liabilities, (ii) if Parent so elects to require the immediate Conveyance of any such Asset or Liability, any Liabilities arising from such Conveyance will be deemed to be Excluded Liabilities, and (iii) if Spinco and Parent jointly agree to immediately Convey such Asset or Liability, any Liabilities arising from such Conveyance will be shared evenly between Spinco and Parent and, notwithstanding any provision in Section 4.5(b) to the contrary, the defense of any Third-Party Claim relating thereto will be jointly managed by Spinco and Parent. The Parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts promptly to obtain any Consents or Governmental Approvals as required by

- 12 -

Section 1.7(a) and to take the actions required by Section 1.7(d) pending removal of legal or contractual impediments or receipt of Consents or Governmental Approvals. If and when the legal or contractual impediments the presence of which caused the deferral of transfer of any Asset or Liability pursuant to this Section 1.7(b) are removed or any Consents and/or Governmental Approvals the absence of which caused the deferral of transfer of any Asset or Liability pursuant to this Section 1.7(b) are obtained, the transfer of the applicable Asset or Liability will be effected promptly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the applicable Ancillary Agreement(s). The obligations set forth in this Section 1.7(b) will terminate on the one-year anniversary of the Business Transfer Time.

(c) Shared Contracts. The Parties will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to separate the Shared Contracts into separate Contracts effective as of the Business Transfer Time so that from and after the Business Transfer Time Spinco will have the sole benefit and Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent related to the C&OP Business and the Parent Group will have the sole benefit and Liabilities with respect to each Shared Contract to the extent not related to the C&OP Business. Upon such separation of a Shared Contract, the separated Contract that is related to the C&OP Business will be a Spinco Contract and the other separated Contract will be an Excluded Asset. If the counterparty to any Shared Contract that is entitled under the terms of the Shared Contract to Consent to the separation of the Shared Contract in the manner set forth in this Section 1.7(c) has not provided such Consent, then the Parties will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts promptly to develop and implement arrangements to make the portion of the Shared Contract related to the C&OP Business available for use by (and the benefit of) Spinco in accordance with Section 1.7(d). If and when any such Consent is obtained, the Shared Contract will be separated in accordance with this Section 1.7(c). The obligations set forth in this Section 1.7(c) will terminate on the one-year anniversary of the Business Transfer Time.

(d) Conveyances Not Consummated Prior To or At the Business Transfer Time. Subject to the third sentence of Section 1.7(a), if the Conveyance of any Asset or Liability intended to be Conveyed is not consummated prior to or at the Business Transfer Time, whether as a result of the provisions of Section 1.7(b) or Section 1.7(c) or for any other reason (including any misallocated transfers subject to Section 1.3), then, insofar as reasonably possible (taking into account any applicable restrictions or considerations relating to the contemplated Tax treatment of the Transactions) and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Person retaining such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, (i) will thereafter hold such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, in trust for the use and benefit and burden of the Person entitled thereto (and at such Person’s sole expense) until the consummation of the Conveyance thereof (or as otherwise determined by Parent and Spinco, as applicable, in accordance with Section 1.7(b) or Section 1.7(c)); and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Person to whom such Asset or Liability is to be Conveyed (at the expense of the Person holding such Asset or Liability, as the case may be) in order to place such Person in substantially the same position as if such Asset or Liability had been Conveyed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, any Tax liabilities in respect thereof and dominion, control and command over such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, are to inure from and after the Business Transfer Time to the Person to whom such Asset or Liability is to be Conveyed. Any Person retaining an Asset or a

- 13 -

Liability due to the deferral of the Conveyance of such Asset or Liability, as the case may be, will not be required, in connection with the foregoing, to make any payments or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise, regardless of any provision to the contrary in the underlying Contract, including any requirements for the securing or posting of any bonds, letters of credit or similar instruments, or the furnishing of any guarantees) to any third party, except to the extent that the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability, as applicable, agrees to reimburse and make whole the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability, to such Person’s reasonable satisfaction, for any payment or other accommodation made by the Person retaining an Asset or a Liability at the request of the Person entitled to the Asset or responsible for the Liability. The obligations set forth in this Section 1.7(d) will terminate on the one-year anniversary of the Business Transfer Time.

Section 1.8 No Representation or Warranty. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT, SPINCO (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND MEMBERS OF THE SPINCO GROUP) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NONE OF PARENT NOR ANY MEMBER OF THE PARENT GROUP MAKES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY HEREIN AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO: (A) THE CONDITION OR THE VALUE OF ANY SPINCO ASSET OR THE AMOUNT OF ANY SPINCO LIABILITY; (B) THE FREEDOM FROM ANY SECURITY INTEREST OF ANY SPINCO ASSET; (C) THE ABSENCE OF DEFENSES OR FREEDOM FROM COUNTERCLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM TO BE CONVEYED TO SPINCO OR HELD BY A MEMBER OF THE SPINCO GROUP; OR (D) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR TITLE. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT, SPINCO (ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND MEMBERS OF THE SPINCO GROUP) FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL OTHER WARRANTIES THAT PARENT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE PARENT GROUP GAVE OR MIGHT HAVE GIVEN, OR WHICH MIGHT BE PROVIDED OR IMPLIED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR COMMERCIAL PRACTICE, ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE MERGER AGREEMENT, ALL ASSETS TO BE TRANSFERRED TO SPINCO (AND ALL OF THE SPINCO ASSETS HELD BY THE SPINCO ENTITIES) WILL BE TRANSFERRED WITHOUT ANY COVENANT, REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY (WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED) AND ARE HELD “AS IS, WHERE IS” AND FROM AND AFTER THE CLOSING SPINCO WILL BEAR THE ECONOMIC AND LEGAL RISK THAT ANY CONVEYANCE WILL PROVE TO BE INSUFFICIENT TO VEST IN SPINCO GOOD AND MARKETABLE TITLE, FREE AND CLEAR OF ANY SECURITY INTEREST OR ANY NECESSARY CONSENTS OR GOVERNMENTAL APPROVALS THAT ARE NOT OBTAINED OR THAT ANY REQUIREMENTS OF LAWS ARE NOT COMPLIED WITH.

Section 1.9 Waiver of Bulk-Sales Laws. Each Party hereby waives compliance by each member of their respective Group with the requirements and provisions of the “bulk-sale” or “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to the

- 14 -

transfer or sale of any or all of the Assets to any member of the Parent Group or Spinco Group, as applicable.

Section 1.10 Real Property Leases; Guarantees.

(a) On or prior to the Business Transfer Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, Spinco will, at the direction and expense of Parent, use its reasonable best efforts to have any member(s) of the Parent Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any Spinco Liability to the extent that they relate to Spinco Liabilities (with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable member(s) of the Parent Group); provided that, except as set forth on Schedule 1.10(a), Spinco shall not be required to enter into any letter of credit or similar instrument to have any member(s) of the Parent Group removed as guarantor of any real property leases.

(b) On or prior to the Business Transfer Time, to the extent required to obtain a release from an agreement (including any lease of a Real Property Interest) or a guarantee (a “Guarantee Release”) of any member of the Parent Group, Spinco will use its reasonable best efforts to execute a guarantee agreement in the form of the existing agreement or guarantee or such other form as is agreed to by the relevant parties to such agreement or guarantee.

(c) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 1.10, (i) Spinco will, and will cause the other members of the Spinco Group (including after the Effective Time, the Acquirer Group) to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Parent Indemnitees for any Liability arising from or relating to such agreement or guarantee and will, as agent or subcontractor for the applicable Parent Group guarantor or obligor, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, and (ii) Spinco will not, and will cause the other members of the Spinco Group not to, agree to renew or extend the term of, increase any obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any loan, guarantee, lease, contract or other obligation for which a member of the Parent Group is or may be liable unless all obligations of the members of the Parent Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation satisfactory in form and substance to Parent in its sole discretion.

(d) On or prior to the Business Transfer Time or as soon as practicable thereafter, Parent will, at its expense, use its reasonable best efforts to have any member(s) of the Spinco Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any Excluded Liability to the extent that they relate to Excluded Liabilities (with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable member(s) of the Spinco Group or Acquirer Group).

(e) On or prior to the Business Transfer Time, to the extent required to obtain a Guarantee Release of any member of the Spinco Group, Parent will use its reasonable best efforts to execute a guarantee agreement in the form of the existing agreement or guarantee or such other form as is agreed to by the relevant parties to such agreement or guarantee.

(f) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in clauses (d) and (e) of this Section 1.10, (i) Parent will, and will cause the other members of the Parent Group to, indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Spinco Indemnitees for any Liability arising from or relating to such agreement or guarantee and will, as

- 15 -

agent or subcontractor for the applicable Spinco Group guarantor or obligor, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, and (ii) Parent will not, and will cause the other members of the Parent Group not to, agree to renew or extend the term of, increase any obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any loan, guarantee, lease, contract or other obligation for which a member of the Spinco Group is or may be liable unless all obligations of the members of the Spinco Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation satisfactory in form and substance to Spinco in its sole discretion.

Section 1.11 Workers Compensation Administration.

(a) Spinco will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the release, effective as of the Business Transfer Time, of the Parent Group, and any letter of credit, bond or other instrument or collateral provided by any of them to any Governmental Authority, with respect to the Spinco Workers Compensation Claims in each jurisdiction in which the Parent Group is self-insured with respect to the Spinco Workers Compensation Claims (the “Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities”). If Spinco fails to obtain any such release with respect to any of the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities, then within six months after the Business Transfer Time, Spinco will either: (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate a loss portfolio transfer with respect to all unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities and, after such transfer, obtain a release of the Parent Group, and any letter of credit, bond or other instrument or collateral provided by any of them to any Governmental Authority, with respect to the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities, or (ii) if Spinco fails to obtain a release of the Parent in accordance with clause (i) above, deliver to Parent a one-year irrevocable letter of credit naming Parent as the beneficiary and securing Spinco’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities and Spinco’s reimbursement obligations to Parent under this Section 1.11. Any letter of credit delivered by Spinco pursuant to the preceding sentence: (A) will have a face amount equal to the aggregate amount of the unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities (calculated by adding the amount of the case reserves with respect to the unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities at the Business Transfer Time, as reasonably determined by Spinco’s third party claims administrator and the amount of the incurred but not reported claims with respect to the unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities at the Business Transfer Time, as reasonably determined by Spinco’s actuary, (B) will be adjusted annually thereafter to reflect any changes in the amount of the unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities, as so calculated, (C) will be renewed effective with each annual expiration, and (D) will provide that it may be drawn by Parent only to the extent: (x) the Parent Group actually incurs a Loss as a result of the payment of any unreleased Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities or as a result of any amount payable by Spinco pursuant to this Section 1.11; and/or (ii) Spinco fails to arrange for an adjusted or replacement letter of credit as required by clause (B) and (C) of this sentence; provided that in the event that Parent draws any funds under the letter of credit, then Parent will hold the cash therefrom in a separate account to be used only to reimburse the Parent Group for any Loss actually incurred by the Parent Group as a result of the payment of any Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities or as a result of any amount payable by Spinco pursuant to this Section 1.11.

- 16 -

(b) Until such time as the Parent Group, and any letter of credit, bond or other instrument or collateral provided by any of the Parent Group to any Governmental Authority, is released from all Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities in a jurisdiction in which the Parent Group is self-insured, Parent will continue to report to the respective Governmental Authority administering self-insured workers compensation claims in such jurisdiction the status of such Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities as required on a periodic basis under Parent’s respective self-insurance agreement. Parent will prepare and file the annual reports and assessments required by each applicable state self-insurance agency for maintaining Parent’s self-insurance with respect to the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities. Parent will request from Spinco, and Spinco will provide to Parent, the data with respect to the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities required for such state filings (“WC State Reporting Obligations”) within 15 days after Spinco’s receipt of a request for such data from Parent for such reports and other filings. From time to time upon reasonable request of Parent, Spinco will update Parent on the status of the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 1.11(b), after the Business Transfer Time, Spinco will be solely responsible for the administration and payment of all of the Spinco Workers Compensation Claims (including, without limitation, the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities), all of which will continue to be Spinco Liabilities.

(c) Spinco will reimburse Parent for any reasonable third party assessments, fees and out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Parent Group in the ordinary course with respect to such self-insurance related to the Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities for which it retains WC State Reporting Obligations (including, without limitation, a portion of the Parent Group’s carrying costs with respect to any bonds or collateral provided by the Parent Group to the respective state self-insurance agencies, determined based on the percentage in amount of all claims of the Parent Group covered by such bonds or collateral represented by such Spinco Workers’ Compensation Claims), within 30 days after Spinco receives an invoice from Parent requesting reimbursement for any such third party assessments, fees or incurred costs.

(d) The Parties will cooperate to effect, as of immediately after the Business Transfer Date or as soon as possible thereafter, the transfer of the WC State Reporting Obligations from the Parent Group to Spinco or the Resulting Entity (the “WC Transfer”). For each Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liability for which a WC Transfer has been effected (reasonable evidence of which transfer will be provided by Spinco to Parent), both Parent and Spinco will be relieved of its respective obligations with respect to such Spinco Self-Insured Workers Compensation Liabilities under Section 1.11(b) and Section 1.11(c).

Section 1.12 Exemption Certificates. Parent will cause Spinco or a Subsidiary of Spinco, as applicable, to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Parent on or before the Business Transfer Date properly executed resale exemption certificates and requisite tax registration numbers for the Spinco Inventory (and, where relevant in accordance with applicable local Law, for any tangible personal property and any other Spinco Assets), and such other certificates and documentation as may be required to reasonably evidence any exemption from transfer Taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties, as applicable, are and remain responsible for all transfer Taxes in accordance with the Tax Matters Agreement.

otherwise cooperate with and assist Spinco as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of this Section 2.7.

(d) For a period of 45 days after delivery of the Closing Adjustment Statement, Spinco will make available to Parent all books, records, work papers, personnel (including their accountants and employees) and other materials and sources used by Spinco to prepare the Closing Adjustment Statement and not already in the possession or under the control of Parent. The Closing Adjustment Statement will be binding and conclusive upon, and deemed accepted by, Parent unless Parent has notified Spinco in writing within 45 days after delivery of the Closing Adjustment Statement of any good faith objection thereto (the “Parent Objection”). Any Parent Objection will set forth a description of the basis of the Parent Objection and the adjustments to the line items reflected on the Closing Adjustment Statement which Parent believes should be made. Any items not disputed during the foregoing 45-day period will be deemed to have been accepted by Parent.

(e) If Parent and Spinco are unable to resolve any of their disputes with respect to the Closing Adjustment Statement within 30 days following Spinco’s receipt of the Parent Objection to such Closing Adjustment Statement pursuant to Section 2.7(d), they will refer their remaining differences to a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants as to which Parent and Spinco mutually agree (the “Accounting Firm”) for a decision, which decision will be final and binding on the Parties. The Accounting Firm will act as an expert and not an arbitrator and will address only those items in dispute, in accordance with any provisions or policies set forth herein and in the Accounting Exhibit, and for each item may not assign a value greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or smaller than the smallest value for such item claimed by either Party. Any expenses relating to the engagement of the Accounting Firm will be shared equally by Parent, on one hand, and Spinco, on the other hand.

(f) The Closing Adjustment Statement will become final and binding on the Parties upon the earliest of (i) if no Parent Objection has been given, the expiration of the period within which Parent must make its objection pursuant to Section 2.7(d), (ii) agreement in writing by Parent and Spinco that the Closing Adjustment Statement, together with any modifications thereto agreed by Parent and Spinco, will be final and binding, and (iii) the date on which the Accounting Firm issues its written determination with respect to any dispute relating to such Closing Adjustment Statement. The Closing Adjustment Statement, as submitted by Spinco if no timely Parent Objection has been given, as adjusted pursuant to any agreement between the Parties or as determined pursuant to the decision of the Accounting Firm, when final and binding on all Parties and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, is herein referred to as the “Final Closing Adjustment Statement.”

(g) Within five Business Days following issuance of the Final Closing Adjustment Statement, the adjustment payment payable pursuant to this Section 2.7(g) (the “Adjustment Payment”) will be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Parent or Spinco, as the case may be. The Final Adjustment Payment will be equal to the amount of the sum of (i) the Working Capital in the United States as reflected on the Final Adjustment Statement, plus any cash or cash equivalents in the United States that are Conveyed to Spinco (including any cash or cash equivalents that are Conveyed indirectly to Spinco through the Conveyance of a Spinco Entity), minus the U.S. TTM Target Working

- 22 -

Capital; plus (ii) the Working Capital in Brazil as reflected on the Final Adjustment Statement, plus any cash or cash equivalents in Brazil that are Conveyed to Spinco (including any cash or cash equivalents that are Conveyed indirectly to Spinco through the Conveyance of a Spinco Entity), minus the Brazil TTM Target Working Capital; plus (ii) the Working Capital in Canada as reflected on the Final Adjustment Statement, plus any cash or cash equivalents in Canada that are Conveyed to Spinco (including any cash or cash equivalents that are Conveyed indirectly to Spinco through the Conveyance of a Spinco Entity), minus the Canada TTM Target Working Capital; minus the Hong Kong Asset Price (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Final Adjustment Payment”) minus the Target Working Capital Amount, minus the Hong Kong Asset Price. The Adjustment Payment will be equal to the Final Adjustment Payment minus the Estimated Adjustment Payment. The Adjustment Payment, if any, will be payable by Spinco to Parent, if positive, and if the Adjustment Payment is negative, an amount equal to the absolute value of such Adjustment Payment will be payable by Parent to Spinco. The Parties acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 2.7 are intended to implement the agreement of the Parties that cash generated by the Spinco Group through the Business Transfer Time is for the benefit of Parent and its stockholders. The Parties further acknowledge that prior to the time of Distribution they may cause cash of the Spinco Group to be transferred to Parent.

ARTICLE III

THE DISTRIBUTION

Section 3.1 Manner of Distribution. The Board of Directors of Parent, in accordance with applicable Law, will establish (or designate a committee of the Board of Directors of Parent to establish) a Record Date and the Distribution Date and Parent will establish appropriate procedures in connection with the Distribution. All shares of Spinco Common Stock held by Parent on the Distribution Date will be distributed to the Record Holders in the manner determined by Parent and in accordance with Section 3.5(b).

Section 3.2 The Distribution.

(a) Subject to the terms thereof, in accordance with Section 3.5(b), each Record Holder will be entitled to receive for each share of Parent Common Stock held by such Record Holder a number of shares of Spinco Common Stock equal to the total number of Spinco Common Stock held by Parent on the Distribution Date, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is number of Parent Common Stock held by such Record Holder and the denominator of which is the total amount of Parent Common Stock outstanding on the Record Date.

(b) None of the Parties, nor any of their Affiliates, will be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of Spinco Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) that are properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

Section 3.3 Conditions to the Distribution. The obligations of Parent pursuant to this Agreement to effect the Distribution are subject to the fulfillment (or waiver by Parent) at or prior to the Business Transfer Time of the following conditions; provided, however, that unless

- 23 -

the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms, any such waiver shall be subject to the written consent of Acquirer:

(a) the Private Letter Ruling continues to be in effect and such ruling is in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Parent, Spinco and Acquirer;

(b) Parent has received an opinion from Wachtell, Lipton, Xxxxx & Xxxx, counsel to Parent, addressed to Parent and Spinco and dated as of the Distribution Date, to the effect that the Spinco Reorganization and the Distribution, taken together, will qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code (the “Distribution Tax Opinion”), provided, however, that Wachtell, Lipton, Xxxxx & Xxxx shall not be required to deliver the Distribution Tax Opinion if the Threshold Percentage (as defined in the Merger Agreement) is more than 49.5%;

(d) Parent and Spinco shall have prepared and mailed to the holders of record of Parent Common Stock such information concerning Spinco, its business, operations and management, the Distribution and such other matters as Parent shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion (after consultation with the Acquirer) and as may otherwise be required by law; and

(e) the Recapitalization has occurred and Parent has received the Special Dividend.

Section 3.4 Actions Prior to Distribution.

(a) Spinco will cooperate with Parent to accomplish the Distribution, including in connection with the preparation of all documents and the making of all filings required in connection with the Distribution. Parent will be permitted to reasonably direct and control the efforts of the Parties in connection with the Distribution (including the selection of investment bank or manager in connection with the Distribution, as well as any financial printer, solicitation and/or exchange agent and financial, legal, accounting and other advisors for Parent), and Spinco will use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all other things reasonably necessary to facilitate the Distribution as reasonably directed by Parent in good faith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Spinco will and will cause their respective employees, advisors, agents, accountants, counsel and other representatives to, as reasonably directed by Parent in good faith, reasonably cooperate in and take the following actions: (i) preparing and filing the registration under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act of Spinco Common Stock on an appropriate registration form or forms to be designated by Parent (the “Spinco Registration Statement”), (ii) participating in meetings, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions, management presentation sessions, and “road shows” in connection with the Distribution (including any marketing efforts), (iii) furnishing to any dealer manager or other similar agent participating in the Distribution (A) “cold comfort” letters from independent public accountants in customary form and covering such matters as are customary for an underwritten public offering (including with respect to events subsequent to the date of financial statements included in any offering document) and (B) opinions and negative assurance

- 24 -

letters of counsel in customary form and covering such matters as may be reasonably requested, and (iv) furnishing all historical and forward-looking financial and other pertinent financial and other information that is available to Spinco and is reasonably required in connection with the Distribution.

(b) Parent and Spinco will prepare and mail, prior to any Distribution Date, to the holders of Parent Common Stock, such information concerning Spinco, Acquirer, their respective businesses, operations and management, the Distribution and such other matters as Parent will reasonably determine and as may be required by Law. Parent and Spinco will prepare, and Spinco will, to the extent required under applicable Law, file with the SEC any such documentation and any requisite no-action letters which Parent determines are necessary or desirable to effectuate the Distribution and Parent and Spinco will each use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary approvals from the SEC with respect thereto as soon as practicable.

(c) Parent and Spinco will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate under the securities or blue sky laws of the United States (and any comparable Laws under any foreign jurisdiction) in connection with the Distribution.

(d) Parent and Spinco will take all reasonable steps necessary and appropriate to cause the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 to be satisfied and to effect the Distribution on any Distribution Date.

Section 3.5 Additional Matters.

(a) Tax Withholding. Parent and Spinco, as the case may be, will be entitled, and will instruct the transfer agent or the exchange agent in the Distribution, as applicable, to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the Code or any provision of local or foreign Tax Law. Any withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons otherwise entitled thereto.

(b) Delivery of Certificate. Upon the consummation of the Distribution, Parent will deliver to the Agent (as defined in Section 3.2(a) of the Merger Agreement), a global certificate representing the Spinco Common Stock being distributed in the Distribution for the account of the Parent stockholders that are entitled thereto. The Exchange Agent will hold such certificate or certificates, as the case may be, for the account of the Parent stockholders pending the Merger, as provided in Section 3.2 of the Merger Agreement. Immediately after the time of the Distribution and prior to the Effective Time, the shares of Spinco Common Stock will not be transferable and the transfer agent for the Spinco Common Stock will not transfer any shares of Spinco Common Stock. The Distribution will be deemed to be effective upon written authorization from Parent to the transfer agent or the exchange agent in the Distribution to proceed as set forth in Section 3.2.

Section 3.6 Plan of Reorganization. This Agreement is intended to constitute a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g).

(vi) any Liability the release of which would result in the release of any Person other than a Person released pursuant to this Section 4.1.

At any time, at the request of any other Party, each Party will cause each member of its respective Group to execute and deliver releases reflecting the provisions hereof.

Without limiting or otherwise affecting the indemnity provisions of the Ancillary Agreements, from and after the Business Transfer Time, Spinco, and each member of the Spinco Group, will, on a joint and several basis, indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless the Parent Indemnitees from and against, and will reimburse such Parent Indemnitees with respect to, any and all Losses that result from, relate to or arise, whether prior to, at or following the Business Transfer Time, out of any of the following items (without duplication):

(a) the Spinco Liabilities and the Liabilities of the Spinco Group, including the failure of Spinco or any other member of the Spinco Group or any other Person to pay, perform, fulfill, discharge and, to the extent applicable, comply with, in due course and in full, any such Liabilities;

- 27 -

(b) any guarantee, indemnification obligation, surety bond or other credit support agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding for the benefit of any member of the Spinco Group by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than any member of the Spinco Group) that survives following the Business Transfer Time;

(c) any breach by Spinco or any other member of the Spinco Group of any obligations to be performed by such Persons pursuant to this Agreement or the Employee Benefits Agreement subsequent to the Business Transfer Time; and

(a) the Excluded Liabilities and the Liabilities of the Parent Group, including the failure of Parent or any other member of the Parent Group or any other Person to pay, perform, fulfill, discharge and, to the extent applicable, comply with, in due course and in full such Liabilities;

(d) the enforcement by the Spinco Indemnitees of their rights to be indemnified, defended and held harmless under this Section 4.3.

Section 4.4 Payments; Reductions for Insurance Proceeds and Other Recoveries.

(a) Payments. Indemnification payments in respect of any Liabilities for which an Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Article IV will be paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnitee as such Liabilities are incurred upon demand by the Indemnitee, including reasonably satisfactory documentation setting forth the basis for the amount of such indemnification payment, including documentation with respect to calculations made and consideration of any Insurance Proceeds that actually reduce the amount of such Liabilities. The indemnity agreements contained in this Article IV will remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee, (ii) the

- 28 -

knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder and (iii) any termination of this Agreement.

(b) Insurance Proceeds. The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, as applicable, will be reduced (retroactively or prospectively) by any Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually recovered from unaffiliated third-parties (and excluding any captive insurance companies of the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates) by or on behalf of such Indemnitee in respect of the related Loss (net of increased insurance premiums and charges related directly and solely to the related indemnifiable Losses and costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with seeking to collect and collecting such amounts). The existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for monies from an insurer or against a third party in respect of any indemnifiable Loss will not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party. Rather, the Indemnifying Party will make payment in full of the amount determined to be due and owing by it against an assignment by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the entire claim of the Indemnitee for Insurance Proceeds or against such third party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the Parties that no insurer or any other third party will be (i) entitled to a “windfall” or other benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions or otherwise have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, or (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated.

(i) In the absence of a Final Determination to the contrary, any amount payable by Spinco to Parent under this Agreement will be treated as occurring immediately prior to the Spinco Reorganization, as an inter-company distribution, and any amount payable by Parent to Spinco under this Agreement will be treated as occurring immediately prior to the Spinco Reorganization, as a contribution to capital.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be required to provide indemnification to or on behalf of any Indemnitee pursuant to Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, as applicable, will be decreased to take into account the present value of any Tax benefit made allowable to the Indemnitee (or an Affiliate thereof) arising from the incurrence or payment of the relevant indemnified item. For purposes hereof, any Tax benefit shall be determined (i) using the highest marginal rates in effect at the time of the determination (ii) assuming that the Indemnitee will be liable for Taxes at such rate and has no Tax attributes at the time of the determination, and (iii) assuming that any Tax benefit is used at the earliest date allowable by applicable law. The present value referred to in the preceding sentence shall be determined using a discount rate equal to the mid term applicable federal rate in effect at the time of the payment of the relevant indemnity payment.

Section 4.5 Procedures for Defense, Settlement and Indemnification Of Third-Party Claims.

- 29 -

(a) Direct Claims. Any claim on account of indemnifiable Losses that does not involve a Third-Party Claim will be asserted by reasonably prompt written notice given by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party from whom such indemnification is sought. The failure by any Indemnitee so to give notice as provided in this Section 4.5(a) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.

(b) Third Party Claims.

(i) Notice Of Claims. If an Indemnitee receives notice or otherwise learns of the assertion by a Person (including any Governmental Authority) who is not a member of the Parent Group or Spinco Group or any of their respective Affiliates of any claim or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”), such Indemnitee will give such Indemnifying Party prompt written notice (a “Claims Notice”) thereof but in any event within 15 calendar days after becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice will describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delay or failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 4.5(b)(i) will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure to give notice.

(ii) Opportunity to Defend. The Indemnifying Party has the right, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of a Claims Notice from the Indemnitee of the commencement or assertion of any Third-Party Claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Article IV, to assume and conduct the defense of such Third-Party Claim in accordance with the limits set forth in this Agreement with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the (A) defense of such Third-Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party will not, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnitee, (1) if Parent is the Indemnifying Party, affect Acquirer or any of its Controlled Affiliates (including after the Merger, any member of the Spinco Group) in an adverse manner and (2) if Spinco is the Indemnifying Party, affect Parent or any of its Controlled Affiliates in an adverse manner; and (B) the Third-Party Claim solely seeks (and continues to seek) monetary damages (the conditions set forth in clauses (A) and (B) are, collectively, the “Litigation Conditions”). If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with this Section 4.5(b), the Indemnitee may continue to defend the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim as provided in this Section 4.5(b), the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense of the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that if (x) either of the Litigation Conditions ceases to be met or (y) the Indemnifying Party fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee may assume its own defense, and the Indemnifying Party will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense. The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnitee, as

- 30 -

the case may be, has the right to participate in (but, subject to the prior sentence, not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending as provided in this Agreement. The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim that (I) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnitee of a complete release from all liability in respect of such Third-Party Claim, (II) provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, or (III) in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnitee, would otherwise adversely affect the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates. The Indemnitee may settle any Third-Party Claim, the defense of which has not been assumed by the Indemnifying Party, only with the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, not to be unreasonably withheld.

Section 4.6 Additional Matters.

(a) Cooperation in Defense and Settlement. With respect to any Third-Party Claim for which Spinco, on the one hand, and Parent, on the other hand, may have Liability under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that will preserve the attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect thereto) so as to minimize such Liabilities and defense costs associated therewith. The Party that is not responsible for managing the defense of such Third-Party Claims will, upon reasonable request, be consulted with respect to significant matters relating thereto and may retain counsel to monitor or assist in the defense of such claims at its own cost.

(b) Certain Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 4.5, Parent may elect to have exclusive authority and control over the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of all Actions pending at the Business Transfer Time which relate to or arise out of the C&OP Business, the Spinco Assets or the Spinco Liabilities if such Action also relates to the Excluded Assets and Excluded Liabilities and a member of the Parent Group is also named as a target or defendant thereunder (but excluding any such Actions which solely relate to or solely arise in connection with the C&OP Business, the Spinco Assets or the Spinco Liabilities); provided that (i) Parent will consult with Spinco on a regular basis with respect to strategy and developments with respect to any such Action, (ii) if Parent fails to take reasonable steps necessary to defend diligently such Action, Spinco may assume such defense, and Parent will be liable for all reasonable costs or expenses paid or incurred in connection with such defense, (iii) Spinco has the right to participate in (but, subject to clause (ii) above, not control) the defense of such Action, and (iv) Parent must obtain the written consent of Spinco, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment with respect to such Action if such settlement, consent or judgment would (i) provide for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting Spinco or any of its Affiliates, or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of Spinco, would otherwise adversely affect Spinco or any of its Affiliates. After any such compromise, settlement, consent to entry of judgment or entry of judgment, Parent and Spinco will agree upon a reasonable allocation to Spinco and Spinco will be responsible for or receive, as the case may be, Spinco’s proportionate share of any such compromise, settlement, consent or judgment attributable to the Spinco Business, the Spinco

- 31 -

Assets or the Spinco Liabilities, including its proportionate share of the reasonable costs and expenses associated with defending same.

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

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

(e) Not Applicable to Taxes. Except for Section 4.4(c) and as otherwise specifically provided herein, this Agreement will not apply to Taxes (which are covered by the Tax Matters Agreement). In the case of any conflict between this Agreement and the Tax Matters Agreement in relation to any matters addressed by the Tax Matters Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement will prevail.

Section 4.7 Exclusive Remedy. Each of Spinco and Parent intends and hereby agrees that this Article IV sets forth the exclusive remedy of the Parties following the Business Transfer Time for any Losses arising out of any breach of the covenants or agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement, except that nothing contained in this Section 4.7 will impair any right of any Person (a) to exercise all of their rights and seek all damages available to them under Law in the event of claims or causes of action arising from fraud; (b) to specific performance under this Agreement; and (c) to equitable relief as provided in Section 6.15 or in any Ancillary Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the Parties hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against the other Party in connection herewith, arising under or based upon any Law other than the right to seek indemnity pursuant to this Article IV and the right to seek the relief described in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the preceding sentence.

Section 4.8 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of Parent and Spinco and their respective Indemnitees under this Article IV will survive the sale or other transfer by any Party of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities.

- 32 -

ARTICLE V

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

Section 5.1 Further Assurances. Subject to the limitations of Section 1.7:

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement or in any Ancillary Agreement, each of the Parties hereto will cooperate with each other and use (and will cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to use) commercially reasonable efforts, prior to, at and after the Business Transfer Time, to take, or to cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or to cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under applicable Law or Contractual obligations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements as promptly as reasonably practicable.

(b) Without limiting the generality of Section 5.1(a), where the cooperation of third parties such as insurers or trustees would be necessary in order for a Party to completely fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, such Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such third Parties to provide such cooperation. If any Affiliate of Parent or Spinco is not a party to this Agreement or, as applicable, any Ancillary Agreement, and it becomes necessary or desirable for such Affiliate to be a party hereto or thereto to carry out the purpose hereof or thereof, then Parent or Spinco, as applicable, will cause such Affiliate to become a party hereto or thereto or cause such Affiliate to undertake such actions as if such Affiliate were such a party.

(c) Prior to the Business Transfer Time, in the event that the Parties identify any tangible Asset (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes any Assets that constitute Intellectual Property) that (i) is owned by a member of the Parent Group, (ii) is not included in the Spinco Assets or will otherwise be made available to the Spinco Business pursuant to the TSA or any of the other Ancillary Agreements, (iii) is not used primarily in, or held primarily for the benefit of, the C&OP Business and (iv) is necessary to manufacture products of the C&OP Business in a manner consistent with the manner in which they have manufactured as of the date hereof, the Parties will reasonably cooperate and negotiate in good faith to identify a mutually acceptable, commercially reasonable arrangement pursuant to which such Asset will be made available to the Spinco Business subsequent to the Business Transfer Time for a reasonable period of time.

Any Information owned by a Party that is provided to the other Party pursuant to this Section 5.2 remains the property of the Party that owned and provided such Information. Each Party will, and will cause members of their respective Groups to, remove and destroy any hard drives or other electronic data storage devices from any computer or server that is reasonably likely to contain Information that is protected by this Section 5.2 and that is transferred or sold to a third-party or otherwise disposed of in accordance with Section 5.2(g), unless required by Law to retain such materials.

No Party will destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any Information which the other Party may have the right to obtain pursuant to this Agreement prior to the end of the retention period set forth in Parent’s retention policies without first using its commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other Party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party the opportunity to take possession or make copies of such Information prior to such destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 7.02 of the Tax Matters Agreement will govern the

- 35 -

retention of Tax Returns, schedules and work papers and all material records or other documents relating thereto.

(iii) Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties will cooperate and consult to the extent reasonably necessary with respect to Third-Party Claims.

(iv) Without limiting any provision of this Section 5.2(j), each of the Parties will cooperate, and will cause each member of its respective Group to cooperate, with each other in the defense of any claim that the C&OP Business infringes Intellectual Property of any third Person or that challenges the validity of any Intellectual Property

- 36 -

With respect to Privileged Information of Parent, Parent will have sole authority in perpetuity to determine whether to assert or waive any or all Privileges, and Spinco will not take any action (or permit any member of its Group to take action) without the prior written consent of Parent that could result in any waiver of any Privilege that could be asserted by Parent or any member of its Group under applicable Law and this Agreement.

The rights and obligations created by this Section 5.3 will apply to all Information as to which a Party or its respective Groups would be entitled to assert or have asserted a Privilege without regard to the effect, if any, of the Spinco Reorganization, the Recapitalization or the Distribution (“Privileged Information”).

- 37 -

C&OP Business) (including any person who, at the time of the communication, was an employee of Parent or its Group in the capacity of in-house counsel, regardless of whether such employee is or becomes an employee of Acquirer, Spinco or any Affiliate thereof) and any person who, at the time of the communication, was an employee of Parent, regardless of whether such employee is or becomes an employee of Spinco or any Affiliate thereof, and (iii) all Information generated, received or arising after the Business Transfer Time that refers or relates to and discloses Privileged Information of Parent or its Group generated, received or arising prior to the Business Transfer Time.

(d) Upon receipt by Parent or Spinco, or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third-party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other or if Parent or Spinco, or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Parent or Spinco, or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be, receives any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third-party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other, Parent or Spinco, as the case may be, will promptly notify the relevant other Party of the existence of the request and will provide such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 5.3 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Parent or Spinco, as the case may be, will not, and will cause their respective Affiliates not to, produce or disclose to any third-party any of the other Party’s Privileged Information under this Section 5.3 unless (i) the other Party has provided its express written consent to such production or disclosure or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered an Order not subject to interlocutory appeal or review finding that the Information is not entitled to protection from disclosure under any applicable privilege, doctrine or rule.

- 39 -

- 41 -

Section 5.7(a); provided, that all of Parent’s reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing are promptly paid by Spinco.
