(iv) If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to defend, compromise or settle a Third-Party Claim; or (ii) fails to notify the Indemnified Parties within the required time period of its/his election as provided in Section 6.2.2(ii), the Indemnified Party shall, therefore, assume the Defense of such Third-Party Claim, by a reputable law firm.

(v) The Parties will not be entitled to settle or compromise a Third-Party Claim without prior written consent from the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(vi) The Parties agree that should the Indemnifying Party elect to undertake the Defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.2.2(ii), the Indemnified Party may participate in such Defense at its own expense and the Indemnified Party shall provide, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, any and all documents reasonably required for the proper Defense of the Third-Party Claim. In this case, if the final and non-appealable decision or judgment of the relevant Third-Party Claim is favorable to the claimant, the Indemnifying Party shall be solely responsible for the prompt payment of the relevant final and non-appealable decision or judgment.

(vii) Any and all costs incurred by the Indemnifying Party with the Defense of the Third-Party Claim (including attorneys’ fees, collateral, administrative or judicial deposits, procedural costs, fines, monetary adjustment etc.) shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. In addition, should the Indemnifying Party not elect to accept the Defense of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.2.2(ii), any and all costs incurred by the Indemnified Parties with the Defense of the Third-Party Claim (including lawyers’ fees, procedural costs, fines, monetary adjustment etc.) shall constitute a Loss and be indemnified by the Indemnifying Party to the relevant Indemnified Party, provided that such costs are reasonable.

(viii) The Indemnified Party shall, upon prior written Notice, allow reasonable access to the Indemnifying Party and/or its Representatives during normal business hours at mutually agreeable times to all records, documents and information related to any Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party is conducting the Defense, and shall make employees available on a mutually convenient basis for such purpose. Any out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party incurred in connection with such access shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party.

(ix) The Party responsible for conducting the Defense against any Third-Party Claim shall: (a) pursue such Third-Party Claim in good faith; and (b) keep the other Parties informed of all material developments and events relating

Execution Version

to such Third-Party Claim (including promptly forwarding copies to the other Parties of any related correspondence and petitions).

6.2.3 Direct Claims

(i) At any time after the Closing Date, if an Indemnified Party becomes aware of any Loss subject to indemnification under the terms of Section 6.1 but not arising out of a Third-Party Claim (“Direct Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall provide an Indemnification Notice to the relevant Indemnifying Party, describing:

(a) the Direct Claim and the circumstances, events, facts, obligations, claims, documents, information or matters giving rise to the Direct Claim;

(b) an estimate of the amount of the Loss and method of calculation thereof, if reasonably practicable; and

(c) a reference to the provisions of this Agreement pursuant to which such right to indemnification arises or is claimed (“Notice of Direct Claim”).

(ii) The Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days from receipt of the Notice of Direct Claim to give Notice to the Indemnified Party to either accept the request for indemnity or present its objection to the request for indemnity along with documents and grounds on which such rejection is based. Failure by the Indemnifying Party to provide the Indemnified Party with such Notice within the period set forth above shall be construed as a formal acceptance of the subject matter of the Direct Claim and be deemed a Payable Loss.

6.3 Survival Period

6.3.1 Period

The indemnification obligation under Sections 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 shall be valid for the following periods (“Survival Period”):

(i) in respect of (i) Fundamental Warranties, (ii) Anti-Corruption Laws; (iii) fraud, willful misconduct or acts in bad faith such obligations shall be valid indefinitely after the Closing;

(ii) in respect of all Seller’s Warranties, Company’s Warranties and the Buyer’s Warranties (in each case other than Fundamental Warranties), such obligations shall be valid for the shorter period of time between, either: (a) six (6) years; or (b) for their respective statute of limitations in accordance with Brazilian Law.

(iii) in respect of the default, by any of the Parties, of any terms and conditions of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Documents, such obligations shall be valid for the respective statutes of limitation in accordance with Brazilian Law.

6.3.2 Claims within the Survival Period

Execution Version

Notice of all claims and causes of action for indemnification arising out of this Agreement must be made on or prior to the last day of the applicable Survival Period; provided, however, that any indemnification obligations under this Agreement shall not terminate with respect to any Losses as to which one Party has given an Indemnification Notice to the other Party in accordance with this Section 6 on or before the last day of the applicable Survival Period, even if such Losses become payable after the applicable Survival Period.

6.4 Payable Loss

6.4.1 For the purposes of the Parties’ respective obligations under this Section 6, the Parties agree that a Loss shall only be payable after final non-appealable judgment, arbitration award or similar decision or if applicable mutual agreement of the Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party (“Payable Loss”).

6.4.2 The sums of Payable Losses shall be reduced to: (i) reflect, in full, the effects of any provision or reserve in the financial statements of the Company (provided that any such provision or reserve was made before Closing); (ii) give full effect to any insurance recoveries the Indemnified Party actually receives as a consequence of the fact, condition, or circumstance giving rise to the misrepresentation, breach, or non-performance in question; (iii) give appropriate effect to any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from third parties in connection with the Payable Loss; (iv) any updated value of judicial deposits made by the Company for a given Direct Claim or Third Party Claim; and (vi) for the amount equivalent to the benefit arising from the deductibility of the Loss in the tax assessment of the Buyer and/or its Affiliates, if applicable; provided that, for avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to commence litigation in connection with this Section 6.4.2 in order to obtain any such proceeds;

6.4.3 Notwithstanding Section 6.4.2 and with exception to the Payable Losses subject to setting off against the Escrow Amount as provided in Section 6.5 below, the sums of Payable Losses shall be grossed up to include the amounts corresponding to all Taxes that shall be deducted or retained, or to which the Indemnified Party becomes subject as a result of this Payable Loss, in such a way that the Indemnified Party receives the payments of the Payable Losses in full as if no Taxes would ever be due or payable.

6.4.4 Buyer’s right to indemnification of Losses based upon Section 6.1.1(i) is limited by the investigation and due diligence conducted by the Buyer. Hence, Buyer shall be entitled to indemnifications regarding all disclosed liabilities.

6.4.5 Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the aggregate amount of all Losses that the Indemnified Parties may recover pursuant this Section 6 shall not exceed an amount equal to thirty million Brazilian Reais (R$ 30,000,000.00) (“Cap”); provided, however, that the foregoing Cap shall not apply to Losses resulting from (i) any breach of the obligations undertaken by Parties under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents; or (ii) any misrepresentation, untruthfulness, inaccuracy or violation of any of the Seller’s Fundamental Warranties; or (iii) Anti-Corruption Laws; (iv) fraud, willful misconduct or acts in bad faith.

6.4.6 An Indemnified Party may not recover any Loss twice, nor receive payments, reimbursements, refunds, or compensation more than once in respect of the same

Execution Version

Loss. For example, if any Loss has been compensated by an insurer, the Indemnified Party may recover from the Indemnifying Party only the positive difference between the effective value of the Loss (which will include all costs incurred by the Indemnified Party to receive such payments, reimbursements, refunds or compensation, such as costs of paying insurance premiums) and the amount compensated by the insurer, if any, net of Taxes. Additionally, any compensation must be deducted from any deposits and/or provisions recorded in relation to the Loss in question.

6.4.7 The right to indemnity of an Indemnified Party in relation to this Agreement and other operations contemplated herein must be satisfied exclusively in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.

6.4.8 The Parties and Company undertake to act in good faith in order to minimize any Loss, cooperating and using their best efforts to not aggravate potential Losses.

6.5 Payment of Indemnification, Offsets and Release of Escrow Amount

6.5.1 Any indemnification payments under this Agreement shall be made in Brazilian Reais to a bank account in Brazil, and within ten (10) Business Days after the respective Loss becomes a Payable Loss.

6.5.2 The Buyer is hereby authorized to set off against the Escrow Amount any undisputed Payable Loss that becomes due by Seller to any of Buyer’s Indemnified Parties in accordance with this Section 6, upon prior Notice from the Buyer to Seller and provided that, if the existing balance of the Escrow Account is insufficient to cover the entirety of the Payable Loss (including the gross up set out in Section 6.4.3), Seller shall remain liable for the remainder of the Payable Loss and other Losses that may become Payable Losses in the future.

6.5.3 On the tenth (10th) Business Days following the 2nd (second) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Buyer shall release the balance of the Escrow Amount (if any) to Seller to the bank account indicated by Seller; provided, however, that there are no Losses as to which a Notice of Direct Claim or a Notice of Third-Party Claim has been delivered within the Survival Period, in which case an estimate of the possible Losses, as provided by the Buyer and prior agreed by the Seller, shall remain held back in the Escrow Account until a final and non-appealable decision related to such Losses is rendered.
