2.5    Nonassignable Assets.

(a)Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign or transfer any Purchased Asset to the Buyer (i) which by its terms or by requirement of Law is not assignable or transferable without a Consent or is cancellable by a Third Party in the event of an assignment or transfer and (ii) for which such Consent has not been obtained or such requirement of Law has not been satisfied as of the Closing, unless and until such Consent shall have been obtained or such requirement of Law satisfied (as applicable) (such Purchased Assets, the “Nonassignable Assets”). Both parties shall as promptly as practicable use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain any Consent that may be required and satisfy any requirement of Law necessary to the assignment or transfer of a Nonassignable Asset to the Buyer or its designees; provided that neither Buyer nor Seller shall be obligated to make any payments to any such Third Parties in order to obtain any such Consent.

(b)If the transfer or assignment of any Purchased Asset intended to be transferred or assigned hereunder is not consummated prior to or at the Closing as a result of the failure to obtain any authorization, then the Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable member of the Seller Group to, thereafter, directly or indirectly, hold such Purchased Asset for the use and benefit of the Buyer, insofar as reasonably possible. In addition, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, the Seller shall take or cause to be taken such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Buyer in order to place the Buyer, insofar as possible, in the same position as if such Purchased Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Purchased Asset, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Purchased Asset, are to inure from and after the Closing to the Buyer. To the extent permitted by applicable Law and to the extent otherwise permissible in light of any required authorization, the Buyer shall be entitled to, and shall be responsible for, the management of any Purchased Assets not yet transferred to it as a result of this Section 2.5 and the parties hereto agree to use reasonable best efforts to cooperate and coordinate with respect thereto.

(c)If and when the Consents, the absence of which caused the deferral of transfer of any Purchased Asset pursuant to this Section 2.5 are obtained, the transfer of the applicable Purchased Asset to the Buyer shall automatically and without further action be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Ancillary Documents.

(d)The parties hereto further agree that, assuming as set forth in Section 2.5(b) that all or substantially all of the benefits and burdens relating to the Purchased Assets inure to the Buyer, (i) any Nonassignable Asset referred to in this Section 2.5(d) shall be

24

treated for all income Tax purposes as assets of the Buyer and (ii) neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall take, and the Buyer and the Seller shall prevent any of their respective Affiliates from taking, any position inconsistent with such treatment for any income Tax purposes (unless required by a change in applicable income Tax Law or a good faith resolution of a contest).

(e)The Seller shall promptly pay over to the Buyer all payments received by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group in respect of all Nonassignable Assets, and the Seller or one or more of the Seller Group shall pay, perform or discharge, when due, any and all Liabilities arising thereunder or otherwise arising in respect thereof.

2.6    Deferred Assigned Contracts.

(a)The Seller and the Buyer acknowledge that there are certain Assigned Contracts that, for commercial reasons, will not be transferred to the Buyer on the Closing Date, but will be transferred to the Buyer at a later date or dates following the Closing Date, as mutually agreed by the parties in writing (such Assigned Contracts, the “Deferred Assigned Contracts”). Schedule 2.6(a) sets forth a list of the Deferred Assigned Contracts.

(b)During the period from the Closing Date until the date that any Deferred Assigned Contract is assigned by the Seller to the Buyer (such date, a “Deferred Assigned Contract Transfer Date”), the Seller shall continue to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under such Deferred Assigned Contract in accordance with its terms and in a manner consistent with past practice, and shall not amend, terminate, waive, or assign any material right or obligation under such Deferred Assigned Contract without the prior written consent of the Buyer. The Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer of any material default, breach, claim, dispute, or litigation arising under or relating to any Deferred Assigned Contract and shall cooperate with the Buyer in resolving any such matter.

(c)On each Deferred Assigned Contract Transfer Date, the assignment and transfer of the applicable Deferred Assigned Contract to the Buyer shall occur automatically and without further action by the parties and shall be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Ancillary Documents.

(d)The provisions of Sections 2.1, 2.3 and 2.4 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Deferred Assigned Contracts as if such Deferred Assigned Contracts were transferred to the Buyer on the Closing Date, except that any references to the Closing or the Closing Date in such sections shall be deemed to be a reference to the applicable Deferred Assigned Contract Transfer Date.

2.7    Consideration. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the other party contained herein and in the CLA/CSA Novation Agreement constitute good, valuable and adequate consideration for the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of such party contained herein and in the CLA/CSA Novation Agreement.

Such alternative arrangements may include a subcontracting, sublicensing, subleasing or other similar arrangements under which the Buyer or one of its Affiliates would, in compliance with applicable Law, obtain the benefits under, and, to the extent first arising after the Closing, assume the obligations and bear the economic burdens associated with, such Specified Shared Contracts solely to the extent related to the Business (or applicable portion thereof) and under which the applicable Seller Related Party would, upon the Buyer’s or such Affiliate’s request, use reasonable best efforts to enforce for the benefit (and at the expense) of the Buyer or such Affiliate any and all of such Seller Related Party’s rights against such Third Party under such Specified Shared Contract solely to the extent related to the Business (or applicable portion thereof), and the Seller or the applicable Seller Related Party would promptly pay to the Buyer or such Affiliate when received all monies received by them from time to time pursuant to such enforcement under such Specified Shared Contracts solely to the extent related to the Business (or applicable portion thereof), after deduction for any costs or expenses incurred by the Seller or the applicable Seller Related Party.

(c)With respect to Liabilities, rights and benefits pursuant to, under or relating to a given Specified Shared Contract, relating to occurrences from and after the Closing, such Liabilities, rights and benefits shall be allocated between the Buyer and the Seller as follows:

(i)    If a Liability is incurred, or if a right or benefit is obtained, exclusively in respect of the Business or exclusively in respect of the Excluded Business, such Liability, right or benefit shall be allocated to the Buyer or its applicable Affiliate (in respect of the Business) or the Seller or the applicable member of the Seller Group (in respect of the Excluded Business);

(ii)    If a Liability, right or benefit cannot be so allocated under clause (i) above, such Liability, right or benefit shall be allocated to the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, based on the relative proportions of total benefit received (over the term of the Specified Shared Contract remaining as of the Closing Date, measured as of the date of the allocation) by the Business or the Excluded Business (as applicable) under the relevant Specified Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Buyer and the Seller shall be responsible for any or all Liabilities to the extent related to, resulting from, or arising out of its (or its controlled Affiliates’) direct or indirect breach of, or actions under, the relevant Specified Shared Contract.

(d)If the Seller or any member of the Seller Group, on the one hand, or the Buyer or any member of the Seller Group, on the other hand, receives any benefit or payment under any Specified Shared Contract that relate to the Business (or applicable portion thereof) or the Excluded Business (or applicable portion thereof), respectively, the Seller and the Buyer (as applicable) shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to, and to cause their respective controlled Affiliates to, promptly deliver such benefit or payment to the other party.

45

(e)The Shared Contracts set forth on Schedule 6.1(e) (such Shared Contracts, collectively, the “Retained Shared Contracts”) shall initially be Excluded Assets. For a period of 75 days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall not waive, amend, or otherwise modify any rights under the Retained Contracts to the extent related to the Business without the prior written consent of the Buyer. If the Buyer notifies the Seller within 75 days after the Closing Date that the Buyer desires to be assigned the portion of a Retained Shared Contract related to the Business, it shall so notify the Seller in writing and upon delivery of such written notice to the Seller, and Section 6.1(a) through Section 6.1(d) shall apply mutatis mutandis; provided that “Closing Date” therein shall refer to the date of such written notice to the Seller. If the Buyer does not provide such notice of assignment within 75 days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall have a right to terminate, waive, amend or modify all or any rights under the Retained Shared Contracts and shall have no further obligations to the Buyer in respect of such Retained Shared Contracts or any rights thereunder.

6.2Permits. The Seller shall, and shall cause members of the Seller Group to, use their reasonable best efforts to transfer, reissue, obtain or cause to be transferred, reissued or obtained, any Business Permits and any other Permits that are necessary (or that may become necessary) for the Buyer to own or operate the Business or the Purchased Assets, each to be effective at the Closing. If any such Permit is not transferred, reissued or obtained prior to the Closing, such Permit shall be a Nonassignable Asset subject to Section 2.5.

6.3Publicity. The Buyer and the Seller each acknowledge the other’s intention to issue its respective initial press release with respect to the Transactions promptly following the execution of this Agreement in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit 6.3. Except as contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 6.3, each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges and agrees to keep this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents and all non-public matters pertaining to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents in strict confidence and not to disclose such information except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or to the extent required by applicable Law (including pursuant to a periodic report or registration statement or other document filed with a Governmental Authority under applicable Law) or the rules and regulations of the stock exchange upon which the securities of one of the parties hereto (or its ultimate parent company) is listed. At least 48 hours before the time the Seller submits any filing pursuant to applicable securities Law in connection with the Seller’s entry into this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, the Seller shall provide a copy of any such filing for the Buyer’s review and comment in advance of its intended release; provided, that any such review and comment shall not cause the Seller to make any late filing; and provided further that the Buyer’s right of review and comment pursuant to this sentence shall only apply to the first such filing so long as any future filings relating to this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby are consistent with such initial filing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose such information, (a) to the extent such party considers such documents or information reasonably necessary to prosecute or defend any claim made with respect to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, (b) to the extent reasonably necessary to deliver such documents or information to such party’s Affiliates, and its and their employees, paralegals, attorneys, lenders or consultants in connection with such party’s evaluation of the Transactions, or to such party’s insurers at any time, (c) in the course of its (or its Affiliates’) normal reporting practices to its (or their) direct or

46

indirect owners, or (d) to the extent such confidential information is available (i) to the public (including pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.3) other than as a result of a disclosure by one of the parties or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys or accountants in violation of this Agreement; (ii) on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the other party hereto or its agents if such source is entitled to disclose such information, or (iii) from the examination of public records. The Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the Buyer shall be entitled to, after the execution of this Agreement (or only where required under the Assigned Contracts, immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement), notify Third Parties to the Assigned Contracts of the assignment of such Assigned Contracts, including notices of change in sponsorship of the Seller Clinical Trials.

6.4Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a)For a period of [* * *] years after the Closing Date, the Seller and its Representatives shall have reasonable access to, and the Buyer agree to hold and not to destroy or dispose of, any books, records or other forms of information with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities transferred to the Buyer hereunder, solely to the extent related to the Seller’s ownership of such Purchased Assets prior to the Effective Time, and solely for the purpose of, and solely to the extent necessary in connection with, the administration of any duties related to any audit or inquiry by a Governmental Authority or Action involving the Seller or any of its Affiliates. In such instance, the Buyer shall allow the Seller and its Representatives reasonable access to such books and records, and personnel with knowledge thereof and facilities related thereto, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours; provided, that such access shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Buyer or any other member of the Mundipharma Network. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall not be required to disclose any information: (i) if doing so would violate any written obligation of confidentiality to which it or any of its Affiliates is subject or, upon the advice of counsel, jeopardize attorney-client privilege or contravene any Laws, (ii) if the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in an Action and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto (other than an Action with respect to a Claim under this Agreement) or (iii) if the Buyer reasonably determines in good faith that such information is competitively sensitive; provided that, in the case of clause (i) above, the Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any required consents or take such other action (such as the entry into a joint defense agreement or other arrangement to avoid loss of attorney client privilege) to permit such access or disclosure. If the Buyer shall desire to dispose of any of such books and records prior to the expiration of such six-year period, the Buyer shall, prior to such disposition, give the Seller a reasonable opportunity of not less than 30 days, at the Seller’s expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as the Seller may select.

(b)For a period of [* * *] years after the Closing Date, the Buyer, its Affiliates and its and their Representatives shall have reasonable access to, and the Seller agrees to hold and not destroy or dispose of, any books, records or other forms of information (not otherwise transferred to the Buyer in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to the Business or Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities transferred to the Buyer hereunder, solely to the extent related to the Seller Group’s ownership of the Purchased Assets and operation of the Business prior to the Effective Time, and solely for the purpose of, and solely to the extent

47

necessary in connection with, the administration of any duties related to any audit or inquiry by a Governmental Authority or Action involving the Buyer or any of its Affiliates. In such instance, the Seller shall allow the Buyer, its Affiliates and its and their Representatives reasonable access to such books and records, and personnel with knowledge thereof and facilities related thereto, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours; provided, that such access shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not be required to disclose any information: (i) if doing so would violate any written obligation of confidentiality to which it or any of its Affiliates is subject or, upon the advice of counsel, jeopardize attorney-client privilege or contravene any Laws, (ii) if the Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, are adverse parties in an Action and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto (other than an Action with respect to a Claim under this Agreement) or (iii) if the Seller reasonably determines in good faith that such information is competitively sensitive; provided that, in the case of clause (i) above, the Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any required consents or take such other action (such as the entry into a joint defense agreement or other arrangement to avoid loss of attorney client privilege) to permit such access or disclosure. If the Seller shall desire to dispose of any of such books and records prior to the expiration of such six-year period, the Seller shall, prior to such disposition, give the Buyer a reasonable opportunity of not less than 30 days, at the Buyer’s expense, to segregate and remove such books and records as the Buyer may select. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 6.4(b) shall limit the Seller’s obligations to transfer Business Records to the Buyer pursuant to Section 2.1.

(c)During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the [* * *]anniversary of the Closing Date (and for Know-How, as long as they are not in the public domain), the Seller will not, and will cause members of the Seller Group not to, directly or indirectly, (i) use for the benefit of the Seller or any the Seller Group or (ii) disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate to any Person, other than to officers, directors and employees of the Seller and its direct or indirect parent entities and any of the Seller Group (in each case, who have a need to know such information in connection with the Purpose and are informed of their obligation to treat such information in the same manner as is applicable to the Seller hereunder), any Confidential Information (as defined below), except in connection with performing its obligations or enforcing any rights, or defending any claim, under this Agreement or any Ancillary Documents or satisfying or discharging any Excluded Liabilities or defending any Action relating to the Business (the “Purpose”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller, and its Affiliates will not be obligated to keep confidential any Confidential Information if and to the extent disclosure thereof is required by Law or legal process, including by any Governmental Authority or by interrogatory, subpoena, civil investigative demand, request for information or similar process, or by determination or direction of any Governmental Authority; provided, however, that in the event such disclosure is required or requested, unless the disclosure is made in connection with a routine audit, investigation, query or review or a blanket document or information request, in each case, by a Governmental Authority that is not specifically directed at the Buyer, its Affiliates, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Transactions, such Person will, to the extent legally permissible, provide the Buyer with prompt notice of such requirement prior to making any disclosure so that the Buyer may (at the Buyer’s cost) seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, and the Seller will cooperate with the Buyer (at the

48

Buyer’s cost) in any attempt by the Buyer to seek such an order or remedy; provided, further, that in the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, such Person shall disclose only that portion of such Confidential Information which such Person is advised by its outside counsel is legally required to be disclosed.  Furthermore, the Buyer expressly understands and agrees that the Seller and its Affiliates and their respective Representatives may have general knowledge with respect to the industry in which the Buyer and its Affiliates operate, the business of the Buyer and its Affiliates and the topics covered by the definition of Confidential Information, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Agreement shall not limit the application or use of such general knowledge without express reference to the, any Purchased Assets or any Assumed Liabilities. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any confidential or proprietary information solely related to any of the Purchased Assets or any of the Assumed Liabilities; provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include information that (A) is generally available to the public on the date of this Agreement, (B) becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Seller Group not otherwise permissible hereunder, (C) is or becomes lawfully obtained from a source other than the Buyer or its Affiliates so long as the source of such information is not known by recipient (after reasonable inquiry) at the time of disclosure to owe an obligation of confidentiality to the Buyer or its Affiliates with respect to such information or otherwise be prohibited by Contract or Law from disclosing such information, or (D) is independently developed without use of or reference to Confidential Information.

(d)The parties hereto hereby agree that, effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of August 10, 2023, by and between the Seller and Mundipharma Medical Company Limited (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), shall terminate solely with respect to the obligations thereunder to the extent related to information with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities; provided that each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges that its respective obligations of confidentiality and non-disclosure with respect to any and all other information provided to it by or on behalf of the Seller or any of its Affiliates or Representatives (other than solely with respect to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities), or on behalf of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates or Representatives, respectively, shall continue to remain subject to the terms and conditions of the Confidentiality Agreement.

6.5Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Non-Disparagement. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Ancillary Documents or with the prior written consent of the Buyer, the Seller shall not, and shall cause members of the Seller Group not to, directly or indirectly (as a stockholder, investor, member, partner or otherwise), from the Effective Time until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Exclusivity Period”), own an interest in, license any right to, operate, engage in, manage, control, render financial or other assistance to, or otherwise be connected to, the business of Developing, Manufacturing or Commercializing any echinocandin antifungal product in or for any country, province or territory anywhere in the world (a “Competitive Activity”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if during the Exclusivity Period, Seller or any member of the Seller Group undergoes a Seller Change of Control Event with a Third Party that as of the effective time of such transaction is engaged in the conduct of a Competitive Activity, such Third Party shall have the right to continue such Competitive

49

Activity and such continuation shall not constitute a breach by Seller of its obligations in this Section 6.5(a); provided that such Third Party shall not use any assets of the Seller Group as of the effective time of the transaction in order to conduct such Competititve Activity during the Exclusivity Period.

(b)The Seller shall not, and shall cause each member of the Seller Group not to, directly or indirectly, (i) during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the [* * *] anniversary of the Closing Date, hire or engage any employees of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates engaged in the Business and that became known to the Seller or any member of the Seller Group during the course of the negotiation and execution of the Transactions (or any individual who terminated such relationship within [* * *]), (ii) during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the [* * *] anniversary of the Closing Date, induce or solicit or attempt to solicit any employees of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates engaged in the Business and that became known to the Seller or any member of the Seller Group during the course of the negotiation and execution of the Transactions (or any individual who terminated such relationship within [* * *]) to leave the employ or engagement of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or (iii) during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the [* * *] anniversary of the Closing Date, solicit or attempt to solicit any customer, supplier, licensee or other business relation of the Business to cease or refrain doing business with the Buyer or any of its Affiliates as its relates to the Business, or induce or attempt to induce any such Person to adversely modify its relationship, or reduce the amount of business it does, with the Buyer or any of its Affiliates as it relates to the Business. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the foregoing shall not prevent the Seller from (A) undertaking general solicitations of employment not specifically targeted at any of the foregoing employees, (B) hiring any employee [* * *]following the termination of employment without cause of any such employee by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates so long as such termination is not the result of a breach of this Agreement or (C) hiring any employee that unilaterally contacts the Seller or any member of the Seller Group without any proactive solicitation by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group.

(c)During the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the [* * *] anniversary of the Closing Date, neither the Seller nor the Buyer shall (and shall not cause any of their respective controlled Affiliates to), directly or indirectly make or publish any Disparaging Remarks (as defined below) to any other Person about: (i) the other party or any of its Affiliates, or their respective practices, policies, financial condition or prospects; or (ii) any business conducted by the other party or any of its Affiliates. As used herein, the term “Disparaging Remarks” means any public (meaning other than to the other party or its Affiliates, as applicable) statement, whether written or oral, that disparages or defames or otherwise harms the reputation, standing or goodwill of a Person in the estimation of a community, including by deterring or attempting to deter others from associating, employing, collaborating or otherwise dealing with them; provided that Disparaging Remarks do not include: (A) testimony in connection with any Action; (B) truthful responses to disparaging or defamatory statements about the Seller or the Buyer, as applicable, that are made by or on behalf of the Buyer or the Seller, respectively, or any of their respective Affiliates; or (C) good faith communications with any Governmental Authority in connection with any Action by any such Governmental Authority.

50

(d)Each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges and agrees that this Section 6.5 constitutes an independent covenant and shall not be affected by performance or nonperformance of any other provision of this Agreement by the Seller, the Buyer or their respective controlled Affiliates. Each of the Buyer and the Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the restrictive covenants and other agreements contained in this Section 6.5 are an essential part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. It is the intent of each of the Buyer and the Seller that the provisions of this Section 6.5 shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the Laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Each of the Buyer and the Seller has independently consulted with its counsel and, after such consultation, agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 6.5 are intended to be reasonable and proper in scope, duration and geographical area and in all other respects. If any such covenant is found to be invalid, void or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction by a final determination of a court or any other Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, each of the Buyer and the Seller agrees that: (i) such determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of (A) the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction, or (B) the remaining terms and provisions of this Section 6.5 in any situation in any jurisdiction; (ii) the offending term or provision shall be reformed rather than voided and the court or Governmental Authority making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or geographical area of any invalid or unenforceable term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or enforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable provision, in order to render the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 6.5 enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law; and (iii) the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 6.5 shall be enforceable as so modified. Each of the Buyer and the Seller acknowledges and agrees that (1) it would be difficult to calculate damages to the Buyer or the Seller (as applicable) from any breach of the obligations under this Section 6.5, (2) injury to the Buyer or the Seller (as applicable) from any such breach would be irreparable and impossible to measure and (3) the remedy at law for any breach or threatened breach of this Section 6.5, including monetary damages, would therefore be an inadequate remedy and, accordingly, each party shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief of its rights under this Section 6.5, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. In the event of a breach or violation of this Section 6.5, the applicable restricted period shall be automatically extended with respect to the breaching party or its applicable controlled Affiliates by the amount of time between the initial occurrence of the breach or violation and when such breach or violation ceases.

6.6Proceedings. From and after the Closing, at the reasonable request of the other party and subject to customary confidentiality restrictions, each party hereto shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, cooperate with the other party and its counsel at the other party’s sole cost and expense in the contest or defense of any Action involving or relating to (a) any of the Transactions or (b) the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities; provided, that this Section 6.6 shall not apply in the event of any claim brought under Article 10 of this Agreement.

6.7Bulk Transfer Laws. Each of the Buyer and the Seller hereby waives compliance by the other party with any applicable bulk sale or bulk transfer Laws of any jurisdiction in

51

connection with the sale of the Purchased Assets to the Buyer (other than any obligations of the Seller with respect to the application of the proceeds therefrom). Pursuant to Section 10.2, the Seller has agreed to indemnify the Buyer against any and all Liabilities arising out of a failure to comply with any applicable bulk transfer Laws with respect to the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement.

6.8Employees.

(a)The Buyer shall have no obligation to make offers of employment or continued service to any Business Service Providers nor any employees, independent contractors or consultants of the Seller, and the Buyer will not, for a period of [* * *] months following the date of this Agreement, make any offers of employment or continued service to any Business Service Providers nor any employees, independent contractors or consultants of the Seller without the prior written consent of the Seller. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the foregoing shall not prevent the Buyer from (i) undertaking general solicitations of employment not specifically targeted at any of the foregoing employees, (ii) hiring any employee six months following the termination of employment without cause of any such employee by the Seller or any of its Affiliates so long as such termination is not the result of a breach of this Agreement or (iii) hiring any employee that unilaterally contacts the Buyer or any member of the Mundipharma Network without any proactive solicitation by the Buyer or any member of the Mundipharma Network.

(b)The Seller shall be solely responsible, and the Buyer shall have no obligations whatsoever for, any compensation or other amounts payable to any current or former employee, officer, director, independent contractor or consultant of the Business, including, without limitation, hourly pay, commission, bonus, salary, accrued vacation, fringe, pension or profit-sharing benefits or severance pay for any period relating to the service with the Seller. The Seller shall remain solely responsible for the satisfaction of all claims for medical, dental, life insurance, health accident or disability benefits brought by or in respect of current or former employees, officers, directors, independent contractors or consultants of the Business or the spouses, dependents or beneficiaries thereof, which claims relate to events occurring on or otherwise in connection with the Closing Date.

(c)Seller shall bear any and all obligations and liability under the WARN Act resulting from employment losses arising in connection with or as a result of the Transactions.

(d)The Seller shall, and shall cause members of the Seller Group to, use reasonable best efforts to minimize the risk of any Person or their Contract of employment or associated collective agreement transferring to the Buyer or any of its Affiliates on or after the Closing Date under operation of Law. If any Contract of employment relating to a Person (including to Business Service Providers) employed by the Seller Group, or any collective agreement, has effect as at the Closing Date as if originally made between the Mundipharma Network and that Person, or between the Mundipharma Network and the relevant party to the collective agreement, the Buyer or any of its Affiliates may, on becoming aware of that effect, terminate such Contract of employment or collective agreement and the Seller shall indemnify the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (as applicable) against any Losses or Employee Liabilities arising out of such termination and against any sum payable to or in respect of that Person in respect of their employment following the Closing Date and any Losses or Employee Liabilities

52

incurred by or on behalf of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates (it being understood that any such Losses or Employee Liabilities shall be Excluded Liabilities for all purposes hereunder).

(e)The Buyer shall, or shall cause its applicable Affiliate to, promptly pay or deliver to the Seller (or its designated Affiliates) any monies or checks that have been received by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates after the Closing to the extent they constitute or relate to an Excluded Asset.

(f)If after the Closing the Seller receives an invoice or charge from a Third Party that is in whole or in part an Assumed Liability or the Buyer receives an invoice or charge from a Third Party that is in whole or in part an Excluded Liability (such party a “Non-Responsible Party”), then such Non-Responsible Party will promptly notify the other party (“Responsible Party”) so that such party can pay for its portion of such charge or invoice (i.e. the portion of such invoice or charge that was an Assumed Liability if the Responsible Party is the Buyer, or the portion of such invoice or charge that was an Excluded Liability if the Responsible Party is the Seller). In the event that the Non-Responsible Party pays the full amount of any such invoice or charge, the Non-Responsible Party shall promptly notify the Responsible Party and request reimbursement for the portion of such invoice or charge for which it is responsible. Payments and reimbursements of invoices and charges under this Section 6.9(f) shall be made by the Responsible Party within 30 days of receiving notice from the Non-Responsible Party.

An estimate of accruals as of February 29, 2024 for purchase orders relating to the Business is set forth on Schedule 6.9(f). During the 30 days following the Closing, each of the Buyer and the Seller shall reasonably cooperate to determine what portion of the work performed under such purchase orders was performed prior to the Closing and allocate related costs accordingly (with costs related to work performed prior to the Closing to be allocated to the Seller and costs related to work to be performed following the Closing to be allocated to the Buyer).

(h)Any unresolved disagreement or dispute between the parties regarding a Prepayment or an invoice or charge from a Third Party shall be referred to the parties’ respective senior officers designated below (“Senior Officers”), or their respective designee, for resolution through good faith negotiations over a period of up to 30 days. If the Senior Officers or their respective designees have not resolved the dispute at the end of the 30-day period, then such

54

party that wishes to pursue the matter may pursue any remedies available to it under Article 10 or Article 11, as applicable. To the extent that a party’s Senior Officer delegates his/her responsibility for resolution of a dispute to another officer of such party, such party shall ensure that the designee has all necessary and appropriate authority to fully resolve the dispute on behalf of such party. Such Senior Officers are as follows:

(i)For Seller: the Seller’s Chief Operating Officer or his/her delegate

If the Agreed Upon Prepayments in Part B of Schedule 1.1(g) are less than $[* * *] (the “Required Prepayments”) by more than $[* * *], then within five Business Days following the determination of the Agreed Upon Prepayments, the Seller shall pay the Buyer the full amount of such shortfall. If the Agreed Upon Prepayments in Part B of Schedule 1.1(g) are $[* * *] or more than the Required Prepayments, then within five Business Days following the Agreed Upon Prepayments, the Buyer shall pay the full excess amount to the Seller. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Prepayment true-up shall be the sole remedy for any breach of the representation and warranty in Section 4.21.

All Product Know-How and Product Data existing in written, electronic or other recorded form will be provided in the same form as they exist in the possession or control of the Seller or any of the Seller Group (e.g., Product Know-How existing in written form shall be provided to Buyer in written form). To the extent any Product Know-How or Product Data is held in possession by a Person other than the Seller, transfer thereof shall be satisfied by the Seller’s delivery to the Buyer of such instruments as are necessary to grant the Buyer the right to access such item of Product Know-How or Product Data and obtain possession thereof from such Person and to document and to transfer title to such item of Product Know-How or Product Data from the Seller to the Buyer.

6.11Supporting Activities. For a period of 46 days from Closing, the Seller shall make the Key Personnel reasonably available to Buyer during the Seller’s business hours on reasonable advance notice to answer questions relating to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities (the “Supporting Activities”); provided, that the Supporting Activities shall not unreasonably interfere with the business and operations of the Seller. Nothing in this Section 6.11 shall require Key Personnel or other personnel of the Seller or the Seller Group to travel in the performance of the Supporting Activities. To the extent any Key Person terminates his or her employment or engagement with the Seller Group prior to the date that is 46 days from Closing, the Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to identify another employee or independent contractor of the Seller Group who can assist with applicable Supporting Activities in a substantially similar manner as the Supporting Activities provided by such Key Person;

55

provided, that nothing in this sentence shall require the Seller Group to hire or engage any new employee or independent contractor as a replacement for any such Key Person.

ARTICLE 7

TAX MATTERS

7.1Proration. All Taxes payable by the owner of any of the Purchased Assets relating to any Tax period beginning prior to, and ending after, the Closing (a “Straddle Period”) shall be prorated as set forth in this Section 7.1. The portion of any such Taxes that are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending prior to the Closing (including for purposes of determining the amount of any Excluded Taxes) shall: (a) in the case of Taxes that are based upon or related to income, receipts, or payroll be deemed equal to the amount that would be payable if the Tax year or period ended prior to the Closing; and (b) in the case of all other Taxes, be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire Straddle Period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding Tax period) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the Straddle Period ending prior to the Closing and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period. The portion that is allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending prior to the Closing shall be borne by the Seller and the portion that is allocable to the portion of the Straddle period beginning after the Closing shall be borne by Buyer. If the Closing occurs before the tax rate is fixed for the then current fiscal or calendar year, whichever is applicable, the proration of the corresponding Taxes shall be on the basis of the tax rate for the last preceding year applied to the latest assessed valuation.

7.2Cooperation. The parties shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns, any Action with respect to Taxes relating to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information in such party’s possession that are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Return, Action relating to the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party shall be required to provide or provide access to any income Tax Return or related workpapers.

7.3Allocation. Seller will, not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, prepare and deliver to Buyer a schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) allocating amounts properly treated as consideration for U.S. federal income Tax purposes among the Purchased Assets, in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and any Treasury Regulations pursuant thereto (and any comparable provisions of state, local or non-U.S. Tax law) or any successor provision. Buyer will have the right to raise objections to the Allocation Schedule within twenty (20) Business Days after its receipt thereof, in which event Seller and Buyer will negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections. The Allocation Schedule will be deemed to be final if Buyer does not deliver written notice of a dispute to Seller within such twenty (20) Business Day period. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law, if Buyer and Seller agree to the Allocation Schedule, or Buyer does not raise a timely objection to the Allocation Schedule, Buyer and Seller will, and Buyer and Seller will cause each of their respective controlled Affiliates to, make all

56

Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule and will not make any inconsistent statement or adjustment on any Tax Returns or during the course of any Tax audit. For the avoidance of doubt, if Buyer timely objects to Seller’s draft of the Allocation Schedule and Buyer and Seller do not agree on the Allocation Schedule, neither party shall be bound by the Allocation Schedule.

7.4Conveyance Taxes. The Buyer and the Seller shall each pay and be responsible for 50% of all applicable sales, value added, goods and services, use, transfer, stamp, registration, deed, documentary, excise or similar Taxes incurred as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and related costs and expenses (“Conveyance Taxes”), and the parties agree to file all required change of ownership and similar statements. Buyer and Seller will cooperate with each other to the extent reasonably requested and legally permitted to minimize any Conveyance Taxes. Each party required by Law to file Tax Returns with respect to Conveyance Taxes will (i) prepare and timely file such Tax Returns and (ii) promptly provide the other party with copies of such Tax Returns, as well as its calculations of any payments with respect thereto.

Any and all goodwill generated by the use of the Business Marks under this Section 9.1(b) shall inure solely to the benefit of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and Seller (on behalf of itself and the Seller Group) hereby assigns all such goodwill to the Buyer. The Buyer acknowledges that Melinta will continue to have the right to use Business Marks under the Melinta License Agreement, and the Seller’s obligations under Section 9.1(a) and this Section 9.1(b) shall not apply to any use of the Business Marks by or on behalf of Melinta under the Melinta License Agreement.

(a)The parties, intending to modify any applicable statute of limitations, agree that (x) the representations and warranties of the Seller contained in Article 4 and of the Buyer contained in Article 5, and in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and (y) the covenants of the parties set forth in this Agreement shall survive the Closing, in each case, as set forth below:

(i)(A) the representations and warranties set forth in [* * *] (collectively, the “Seller Fundamental Representations”), and (B) the representations and warranties set forth in [* * *] (collectively, the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”), shall survive the Closing for [* * *] years following the Closing Date;

(b)The period of time a covenant, agreement or representation survives the Closing pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall be the “Survival Period” with respect to such item.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that, if the applicable Survival Period for an item as contemplated by this Section 10.1 is shorter or longer than the statute of limitations that would otherwise have been applicable to such item, then the applicable statute of limitations with respect to such item shall be reduced or extended to the shorter or longer Survival Period contemplated hereby (as applicable). The parties hereto further acknowledge that (i) the Survival Periods are the result of arms’-length negotiations between the parties, (ii) the parties hereto intend for such survival periods to be enforced as agreed by the parties and (iii) such survival periods shall not be deemed to be tolled following the Closing Date or to otherwise extend beyond the end of such survival periods for any reason other than as set forth in the following sentence.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller’s indemnification obligations under Section 10.2(d), and the Buyer’s indemnification obligations under Section 10.3(d) shall survive indefinitely.

Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article 10, from and after the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates, and any of its and their respective Affiliates, Representatives, general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, management companies, equity holders, controlling Persons, members, agents, incorporators, trustees, heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns (the “Buyer Indemnitees”) from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of the Buyer Indemnitees for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained directly or indirectly by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees (whether in connection with a Direct Claim or a Third Party Claim) to the extent resulting from or arising out of:

(a)any breach of any representation and warranty of the Seller contained in Article 4 of this Agreement;

(b)any breach of any Covenant to be performed by the Seller contained in this Agreement;

(a)any breach of any representation and warranty of the Buyer contained in Article 5 of this Agreement;

(b)any breach of any Covenant to be performed by the Buyer contained in this Agreement;

(c)any Liability incurred by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group as a result of continuing to hold the U.S. Product Approval for the Treatment Indication or any Product Filing (as applicable) from and after the Closing or continuing to service as a sponsor of the ReSTORE Trial or ReSPECT Trial from and after the Closing, except in respect of any such Liability incurred by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group as a result of (i) any failure by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group to continue to hold the U.S. Product Approval for the Treatment Indication or a Product Filing (as applicable) from and after the Closing; (ii) any breach by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group of any of its or their respective obligations set forth in Article 8 or the Transition Services Agreement; (iii) any breach of applicable Law by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group that was not primarily caused by any action or inaction of the Buyer or any member of the Mundipharma Network; or (iv) the negligence of the Seller or any member of the Seller Group. Notwithstanding the first paragraph of this Section 10.3, the indemnity under this Section 10.3(c) shall be limited to any Losses incurred or sustained directly or indirectly by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees in connection with a Third Party Claim only; and accordingly, without prejudice to the Transition Services Agreement, any Direct Claims are hereby excluded; or

(d)(i) any Assumed Liability or (ii) the operation of the Business by the Buyer or any other member of the Mundipharma Network from and after the Closing, except (I) to the extent resulting from or arising out of a breach by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group of any of its or their respective obligations set forth in this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Documents; or (II) in respect of any such Liability incurred by the Seller or any member of the Seller Group as a result of any action taken by the Seller or a member of the

65

Seller Group pursuant to Article 6. For the avoidance of doubt, clause (ii) shall not apply to the extent that the applicable Loss is an Excluded Liability.

10.4Limitations and Other Matters Relating to Indemnification.

(a)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no indemnification claims for Losses shall be asserted by the Buyer Indemnitees or the Seller Indemnitees, respectively, (and the Seller or the Buyer, respectively, shall have no indemnification obligation) under, (x) in the case of Losses indemnifiable by the Seller, Section 10.2(a) and (y) in the case of Losses indemnifiable by the Buyer, Section 10.3(a):

(ii)until the aggregate amount of all such Losses (excluding any individual Loss or group or series of related Losses that do not exceed the De Minimis Threshold) exceed $[* * *] (the “Deductible”), in which event the Buyer Indemnitees or Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, shall be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses in excess of the Deductible; provided, that the De Minimis Threshold shall continue to apply;

provided, that the De Minimis Threshold and the Deductible shall not apply to any Losses indemnified under Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.3(a) (as applicable) in respect of common law fraud or the Seller Fundamental Representations or the Buyer Fundamental Representations.

(b)The aggregate liability of the Seller or the Buyer (as applicable) for any Losses indemnified under Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.3(a) (as applicable), shall not exceed an amount equal to $[* * *] (the “Cap”); provided, that the Cap shall not apply to any Losses indemnified under Section 10.2(a) or Section 10.3(a) (as applicable) in respect of common law fraud or the Seller Fundamental Representations or the Buyer Fundamental Representations.

(c)The aggregate liability of the Seller or the Buyer (as applicable) for any Losses indemnified under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 (as applicable), shall not exceed $[* * *]; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.4, the aggregate liability of the Seller or the Buyer (as applicable) shall not be limited whatsoever in respect of any Losses arising out of (i) common law fraud, or (ii) any Losses indemnified under Section 10.2(d), Section 10.3(c) or Section 10.3(d).

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Buyer or the Seller be required to indemnify, defend, hold harmless, pay or reimburse any Indemnified Party under this Article 10 for (i) any punitive or exemplary damages except to the extent such Losses are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be owed to any Person (other than a Buyer Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee (as applicable) in connection with this Agreement) in connection with a Third Party Claim or (ii) any special, consequential or indirect damages, except to the extent that such Losses are reasonably foreseeable or are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be owed to any Person (other than a Buyer Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee (as applicable) in connection with this Agreement) in connection with a Third Party Claim. The limitations on liability in this Section 10.4(d) shall not apply to the indemnity in Section 10.2(d)(ii).

10.5Indemnification Procedures.

(a)All claims for indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 (a “Claim”) shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10.5(a). A Person entitled to assert a Claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article 10 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice of any such Claim (a “Claim Notice”), which notice shall include a description in reasonable detail of (i) the basis for, and nature of, such Claim and (ii) the estimated amount of the Losses that have been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim (to the extent then determinable, which amount shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such Claim). Any Claim Notice shall be given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party, (A) in the case of a Claim in connection with any Claim or Action asserted or commenced by any Person (other than a Buyer Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee in connection with this Agreement) against such Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), promptly, but in any event not later than [* * *] days, following receipt of notice of the assertion or commencement of such Claim or Action and (B) in the case of a Claim other than a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”), promptly, but in any event not later than [* * *] days, after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of the facts constituting the basis for such Direct Claim; provided, however, that no failure to give such prompt written notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such

67

failure. For purposes of this Agreement, “Indemnifying Party” means the Buyer (in the case of a Claim by a Seller Indemnitee) or the Seller (in the case of a Claim by a Buyer Indemnitee).

(b)Except as otherwise set forth in Section 10.5(c), with respect to any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, without any reservation of rights against the Indemnified Party, by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [* * *] days after delivery of the Claim Notice with respect to such Third Party Claim, to assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense, and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party shall constitute Losses hereunder, if (i) such Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party; (iii) the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a significant conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party; (iv) if such Third Party Claim is asserted by a Governmental Authority; (v) the Third Party Claim involves a material business relation with any Indemnified Party, including any customer, client or supplier of the Buyer or the Business or the Seller Group and the Excluded Business; (vi) the Indemnifying Party has failed or is failing to vigorously prosecute or defend such Third Party Claim; or (vii) the Indemnified Party gives written notice to the Indemnifying Party in the Claim Notice that it wishes to retain control of the defense of such Third Party Claim and agrees to bear the reasonable costs of defense of such Third Party Claim and any Losses arising out of such Third Party Claim.

(c)The Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, that is not controlling such defense shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it (provided that, if, under the applicable standards of professional conduct, a conflict with respect to any interests between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party exists in respect of such Action, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel as is retained by the Indemnified Party). If the Indemnifying Party elects not to or is not entitled to control the defense of such Third Party Claim (including by failing to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to control such defense in accordance with Section 10.5(b)), the Indemnified Party may control the defense of such Third Party Claim with counsel of its choosing, and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction in which the Indemnified Party reasonably determines counsel is required. . The Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, that is controlling such defense shall keep the other party reasonably advised of the status of such claim or legal proceeding and the defense thereof.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) an Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement would (A) include a complete and unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect thereto, (B) not impose any

68

Liability (including any equitable remedies) on the Indemnified Party and does not impose any injunctive relief on the Indemnified Party and (C) not involve a finding or admission of any wrongdoing on the part of the Indemnified Party and (ii) an Indemnified Party shall not agree to any settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

10.6Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All payments made pursuant to this Article 10 shall be treated as adjustments to the consideration for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by the parties on their Tax Returns to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

10.7Exclusive Remedy; No Duplication.

(a)From and after the Closing, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, (i) the indemnification provided for in this Article 10 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Indemnified Parties (including the Buyer and the Seller, as applicable) in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, (ii) neither the Buyer nor the Seller shall be liable or responsible in any manner whatsoever (whether for indemnification or otherwise) to any Indemnified Party for a breach of this Agreement or in connection with any of the Transactions except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 10 and (iii) each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action (A) in respect of (including for any breach of) any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein, (B) otherwise relating to the subject matter of, any process related to and any transaction contemplated by this Agreement and (C) other than as provided in this Agreement, for subrogation, in each case that it may have against the other party and such party’s former, current or future Affiliates, or any of its or their respective former, current or future direct or indirect general or limited partners, shareholders, managers, management companies, equity holders, controlling Persons, members, agents, incorporators, trustees or other Representatives, or Representatives of any of the foregoing, or any heir, executor, administrator, successor or assign of any of the foregoing, in each case, arising under or based upon predecessor or successor liability, contribution, tort, strict liability or any Law or otherwise, except, in each case, pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 10.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Article 10 shall not (i) limit the ability of any party to seek specific performance in accordance with Section 6.5(d) and Section 11.13, or (ii) limit any party’s right to maintain or recover for any Losses in connection with any Action or Claim, to the extent based upon fraud on the part of another party hereto.

(c)Any Losses subject to indemnification hereunder shall be deemed without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such Losses.

72

Action may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court.

Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at Law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

11.14Severability.

73

of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith and (b) each party hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no recourse under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered by any Person pursuant hereto or otherwise shall be had against any of the Seller’s or the Buyer’s Affiliates’ former, current or future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling Persons, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, Affiliates, members, financing sources, managers, general or limited partners or assignees (each a “Related Party”), in each case other than (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the provisions of this Agreement) each party hereto or any of its respective assignees under this Agreement, whether by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, or by virtue of any applicable law, it being expressly agreed and acknowledged that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on or otherwise be incurred by any of the Related Parties, as such, for any Liability of any party hereto or any of its respective assignees under this Agreement or any documents or instruments delivered by any Person pursuant hereto for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such Liabilities or their creation; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 11.15 shall relieve or otherwise limit the liability of any party hereto or any of its respective assignees for any breach or violation of its obligations under such agreements, documents or instruments.

11.16Interpretation. The parties hereto have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and have participated in the drafting and negotiation of this Agreement and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption of burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening either party by virtue of the authorship or drafting history of any provision in this Agreement.
