The Parties acknowledge that (i) the Acquired Companies, Seller, and/or their respective Affiliates have retained Jones Day (the “Law Firm”) to act as their counsel in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereunder, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby) as well as other past and ongoing matters, (ii) the Law Firm has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) no Person other than the Acquired Companies, Seller, or their respective Affiliates has the status of a client of the Law Firm for conflict-of-interest or any other purpose as a result thereof.

Attorney-Client Communications from the records (including e-mails and other electronic files) of the Acquired Companies. Accordingly, Buyer will not, and will cause each of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) not to, use any Attorney-Client Communications remaining in the records of the Acquired Companies after the Closing in a manner that may be adverse to Seller or any of their direct or indirect equityholders or Affiliates.
(c)
Buyer agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies), that from and after the Closing (i) the attorney-client privilege, all other evidentiary privileges and the expectation of client confidence as to all Attorney-Client Communications belong to Seller or its Affiliates, as applicable, and will not pass to or be claimed by Buyer, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates, and (ii) Seller or its Affiliates, as applicable, will have the exclusive right to control, assert or waive the attorney-client privilege, any other evidentiary privilege, and the expectation of client confidence with respect to such Attorney-Client Communications. Accordingly, Buyer will not, and will cause each of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies) not to, (A) assert any attorney-client privilege, other evidentiary privilege or expectation of client confidence with respect to any Attorney-Client Communications, except in the event of a post-Closing dispute with a Person that is not Seller or any of their its direct or indirect equityholders or Affiliates; or (B) take any action which could cause any Attorney-Client Communications to cease being a confidential communication or to otherwise lose protection under the attorney-client privilege or any other evidentiary privilege, including waiving such protection in any dispute with a Person that is not Seller or any of its direct or indirect equityholders or Affiliates. Furthermore, Buyer agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of each of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Acquired Companies), that in the event of a dispute between Seller and any of its respective direct or indirect equityholders or Affiliates, on one hand, and the Acquired Companies, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to any matter in which the Law Firm jointly represented both parties, neither the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence nor any right to any other evidentiary privilege will protect from disclosure to Seller or any of its direct or indirect equityholders or Affiliates any information or documents developed or shared during the course of the Law Firm’s joint representation
